If I was at NRC as a normal student (not Yuu)
If I was in the NRC, i will be a Ignihyde Student (bc the official test tell me I was a Ignihyde student), the extrovert or ambivert of Ignihyde.
Aka the Ignihyde student hated by all the other Ignihyde student :DD
I will try to adopt Ortho.
Raccoon : Sign just here.
Ortho : isn't it a adopt pap-
Raccoon : shhh, you don't need to know or say what it is. Sign just. :)
Idia seeing me trying to adopt legally his little (dead and robot) brother : What the fuck-
I will be here for the Overblots.
But not for help, oh no no !
Ace : What is it ?
Raccoon : pop corn.
Deuce : Why are you eating pop corn when there is an overblot in front of you ?!
Raccoon : because it's better to watch with pop corn ? I thought everyone know that.
I would be absent from sports class. Vargas met me once in the corridors but that's it. I would never have shown up to this (torture) class.
I'm pretty sure Vargas won't even know I exist.
Vargas : Raccoon ? We have someone here who have that name ?
Jack : it's maybe the raccon that is in the trash at the back of the school ?
Ace : Oh yeah, I have seen that little guy once. But why he will be on the call list ?
(They are talking about a real raccoon, not me-)
I will doxx people for money. It's said.
Hey, I need to make money you know ? And I don't have a Leona for that like Ruggie-
Oh yeah because Ruggie will be my best friend here.
(We are the NRC cleaners, Crowley pays us to do all the cleaning)
I have seen a post saying that some beastmens and faes are awake the night and go see each others, even if I will be a human, I will join them.
Like that I will meet (and have informations) on a lot of beastmens and faes.
(Me ? Later blackmail them about this ? Please, be realistic, I care about my life ! But for a little money....)
I will be the only Ignihyde student AND human that will be at that "night party" (we will call it like that), and it's because I was invite by Ruggie (bestfriends benefits).
Now, for some of my hc as Ignihyde students, I headcanon that all the Ignihyde student have one time by months a party on a game with all the dorm.
And during that party, they do a lot of challenges. And that leads to some Drama and rivalry.
I'm pretty sure it's at that party that we decided who will be the Housewarden and Vice Housewarden.
The Housewarden being the 1st and vice the 2nd.
And some others things :
•I will be the NRC therapist.
I'm a good listener and I give good advices.
Pretty sure Crowley tried to hire me after finding out.
That mean I will be the therapist of all the overblotter (oh look ! I have now a lot of ennemies because I talk bad about their family/what they think-).
I would use the excuse of being a school therapist to avoid doing sports. At least I have an excuse and I won't have repercussions for (skipping) being absent from sports class.
Bye bye Vargas ! Seeing you one time in the corridors was enough for me !
•I probably would have made a contract with Azul and I would have taken Ruggie to do one too (well, that's if he and I are in first year at the same time).
Why ? For money ofc.
We will work for the Mostro Lounge only for the money.
•I will avoid the Leech (well, try to avoid them).
They scared me.
How people can not have scare of them is a question without answer for me.
•I will be hate of Vil and Riddle (even if we don't count the therapist part).
I have a bad memory, i don't care about my physic.
I can easily forget the rules, so Riddle will hate me for forget all the Queen rules but also all the NRC rules in general.
And I can literally go shopping in unicorn pajamas. Vil worst nightmare.
•Rook 🤝🏻 Me : watching people.
Nothing else to say here. It explain all by itself.
•Unexpected friendship : Me & Idia & Rook.
Every Sunday evening at the end of the week we would meet up at the Pomefiore or Ignihyde dorm and tell each other all the NRC gossip. We would have tea, cookies, popcorn and hot chocolate, and lots of gossip to be told.
Nobody in the NRC know how much we know or how we know it. They don't want to know.
•My magic.
I will have an healing magic or a anti-magic. That's all.
I don't need more magic than those two.
•I will try to adopt Grim.
Maybe Yuu too. I just want to adopt them + Ortho because they deserved all the love.
I will have a gun.
I love gun.
•Knowing too much.
If I go at NRC, even with magic, with all I know of the game and the theories ? Man, I will be the more suspicious of the all NRC, more than Rook !
I will say things like that :
Raccoon : Man, you really is an overblotter now that I see you that often !
Crowley : ??? How do you know-
Raccoon : you're dad, Levan, is Crowley. Good chance bro, we're not together in that shit-
Malleus : The fuck child of men-
Raccoon : what that feel like to be a general ?
Lilia : kid, why that question and how do you know ? I don't remember saying it to you-
Raccoon : when will you accept that you are Silver, Sebek and Malleus parental figure ?
Lilia : ... i'm not-
Raccoon : wait- we are before Malleus overblot, so that mean you are still in the denial right now.
Lilia : by the great sevens.. WHAT THE FUCH RACCOON ?!-
Tumblr media
Me, Idia and Rook the Sunday.

AITA for sending photos of the devil from a tv show to my class discord?
we have an unofficial class discord server which i'm fairly active in along with my friends. one day we happened to get onto the topic of a tv show i've been rewatching lately called lucifer. in the show, lucifer looks like a human most of the time, but is able to reveal his true form (which is a devil face) which scares people usually to the point of insanity. i explained this to my friends (who have not seen the show) and they were like "lol what's it look like" so i sent a screencap of said devil face.
turns out, we had a classmate lurking that then decided to make her presence known. she is a very christian girl who i don't know that well but we are usually pleasant to each other. however, this time she flipped out and told me i can't be sending those images in a discord server where anyone can see it and she was really mad because i was sending images of the devil. i was surprised and said i was sorry but i didn't know she was lurking and also it's not the real devil (real in the sense that she believes he is real) so i don't think it counts? but she was really upset with me and said i should've censored the images (with discord's mark spoiler feature) so she didn't have to see them, and it doesn't matter if it's from a tv show or not it's still an image of the devil and it upset her so i should apologize. i said how could i have known to do that if i didn't know she was reading the chat and that i was sorry she was upset but not sorry for doing what i did because i didn't know, but she said it should've been common sense. she said she'd report me if i did it again and blocked me.
the two classmates who are mods came in a bit later and just said smth along the lines of "remember guys we don't need to unnecessarily upset people and we should respect their boundaries" etc etc
why i might be the asshole:
i knew she was IN the server and that she's pretty sensitive about these topics
the show in general is probably considered a bit blasphemous to her at least
i was kind of blunt with my words and said "im sorry you felt that way" which i realize isn't really an apology
i don't really feel?? sorry?? i feel bad that she's upset, but not for what i did
why i might NOT be the asshole
i didn't know she was reading the chat so i couldn't have known to censor my imagery or avoid the topic, and i'd forgotten all about her existence
the pictures are not the real devil, it's just some dude's face with CGI
i didn't send the images unprompted or directly to her, my friends asked me to bc they were curious
so tumblr, i know this may sound ridiculous and dumb and petty teen-ness, but AITA?
What are these acronyms?

lovestruck // chapter 1
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
chapter two
pairing ➼ brother's best friend!niki x fem!reader
genre ➼ strangers to friends to lovers, fluff, kind of crack because y/n's internal narration is very silly, sunoo is y/n's older brother
word count ➼ 1.9k
warnings ➼ profanity, my writing kind of reads like a sitcom
synopsis ➼ As the younger sister of the smart and popular Kim Sunoo, you’ve gotten used to living life as a background character. You mostly keep to yourself, you don't go to parties, and you most certainly do not have a boyfriend. One day, Sunoo brings home one of his friends and encourages you two to get to know each other… the fact that said friend is extremely cute definitely won’t be an issue, right?
a/n ➼ sorry for being so inactive lately, school has been kicking my ass but i finally got around to finishing the first chapter of this fic!! lovestruck will be multiple chapters but probably not too many 🤙 the other parts are already almost fully written so expect another update soon! hope u enjoy!! 💘💘
˚₊· ➳❥
The majority of your life had been spent existing in your brother’s shadow. It’s not that you didn’t love Sunoo; of course you did. He doted on you just as any older sibling should and supplied you with plenty of life advice, even when you didn’t realize you needed it. Although Sunoo’s protectiveness of you could be annoying at times, you knew he always had your best interests at heart.
But, besides that, you had other problems to worry about. Currently, you were sat at the desk in your room, eyes glued to the chemistry textbook in front of you. You’d been soldiering on through this assignment for what felt like hours yet you still didn’t understand anything. Seriously, what the hell was an isomer? You swore that half of these words were made up. Suddenly, somebody knocked on the door, interrupting your homework-induced downward spiral.
“Come in,” you answered, peeling your eyes away from your work.
“Come in,” you answered, peeling your eyes away from your work.
Sunoo poked his head in and smiled. “Hey, y/nnie. What’cha working on?”
“Chemistry,” you sighed, “but I’m seriously considering dropping out of school just to escape it.”
He laughed and entered your room, peering over your shoulder. “I could help you with this if you want,” he offered. 
“Thanks, Sunoo,” you replied. You snapped the textbook shut and turned towards your brother in order to face him completely. “Did you need anything?”
He clapped his hands on your shoulders. “I just wanted to let you know that I have a friend coming over in a little bit. We’ll just be hanging out in my room, so we shouldn’t bother you.”
“Sunghoon?” you asked. The older boy was one of Sunoo’s best friends and a common sight in your household. Sometimes, he’d even enter your house without knocking. That definitely annoyed you.
“No, Niki’s coming over. Do you know him? He’s in your grade.”
Niki? You considered yourself well versed in the interesting cast of characters that your brother brought to your house, but you had no recollection of anybody named Niki. After you shook your head in the negatory, Sunoo sighed.
“Seriously, y/n, you need to talk to more people in your classes,” he scolded. “His real name’s Riki but he goes by Niki. He’s on the dance team with me -- the captain, actually. He’s super talented. You should introduce yourself when he comes over! He’s really chill, you guys would definitely get along.”
You hoped your distaste for Sunoo’s idea was not evident in your expression. After a long seven hours spent at school that day, your social battery was at a minimum. “I don’t know, Sunoo… I’m not even dressed properly.” You weren’t exactly ready for a meet-and-greet; you were currently sporting a pair of baggy, black sweatpants and an oversized hoodie that had a mysterious (likely coffee-related) stain near the front pocket.
Sunoo dismissed the notion with a wave of his hand. “Niki’s not gonna care. C’mon, please y/n? For me?”
Sunoo always tried to be your friendship wingman. He knew you were sort of “challenged” in the socialization department, and was constantly trying to get you out of your comfort zone. You appreciated his concern -- truly, you did -- but at the end of the day, your awkward exterior often repelled anybody within a five-mile radius. You were happily resigned to your life of minimal fraternization.
But Sunoo was giving you his best puppy dog eyes, bottom lip jutting out just so, making him look like a puppy in one of those “donate to a dying animal” commercials. God, you hated when he did that. You hated it because it worked every single time.
“Fine,” you groaned, and Sunoo celebrated his victory with a gleeful cheer. “But,” you continued, raising your finger pointedly, “I only have to talk to him for five minutes, and then I’m out.”
“Good enough for me!” he exclaimed, motioning to leave your room. “Come downstairs, he’ll be here any second.”
You pushed your chair away from your desk and got up, reluctantly following your brother down the stairs and to the kitchen. You sincerely hoped that this mysterious Niki character was extremely extroverted because he was definitely going to have to do most of the heavy lifting in the upcoming conversation. What should you guys even talk about? The weather? You buried your head in your hands. What were you thinking? He was a teenage boy for Christ’s sake, not your grandfather.
“Don’t get so nervous, y/nnie. I didn’t invite a serial killer to the house,” he assured. He pulled his phone out of his pocket and glanced at the screen. “He’s pulling into the driveway now, I’ll go get the door.”
Sunoo headed for the foyer and you took a seat on a stool at the counter. You knew deep down that Sunoo was right and you were getting anxious over nothing, but you couldn’t help but be worried. He was in your grade, right? What if you said something really dumb and he told someone else you knew? You began to chew your fingernails.
You heard the quiet chatter of Sunoo greeting his guest and two pairs of feet approaching the kitchen. Putting on the best “hi, I’m not a creep!” smile that you could muster, you spun to look at the corridor and… wait.
Holy shit.
There stood your brother shooting you an expectant smile, and beside him was possibly the most attractive boy you had ever seen in your life.
The first thing that you noticed about Niki was that he was tall. Impossibly tall. It was safe to say he was a full head taller than Sunoo, his body long and slender like a model’s. His raven-colored hair was pushed away from his forehead, resting gently on his temples. The sunlight pouring in from the windows reflected off of the vast, hypnotizing darkness of his eyes, which were currently trained on you. The power of his gaze was so intense that you felt as if you might collapse in on yourself like a sinkhole.
The corners of his mouth quirked up into a small smile and you found yourself really wishing he hadn’t, because now you were staring at his lips. They were plush and pink, like a doll’s, and looked like he had just applied chapstick. To sum it all up in one word, he was gorgeous. Utterly and completely gorgeous.
“Niki,” Sunoo began, “this is my little sister, y/n. Y/n, this is Niki.”
“Nice to meet you, y/n,” he greeted. His voice was deep; so deep it almost startled you. You quickly realized that you really liked hearing him say your name. “I’ve heard a lot about you.”
You chuckled nervously. “Only good things, I hope.”
“Don’t worry, y/n, I spare people all the horrible details about you,” Sunoo joked. He clapped his hands together. “I’ve got to move all my laundry up to my room really quickly, otherwise Mom’ll kill me. I’ll be right back! In the meantime, you two bond or something.”
Either sibling telepathy was a myth or Sunoo was choosing to ignore you because he exited the kitchen despite you aggressively shouting PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE in your mind. And just like that, you and Niki were alone.
“Suffocating” seemed like an appropriate way to describe the silence you were presently enduring. After watching Sunoo leave, Niki made eye contact with you for a brief moment before casting his gaze down to the floor. Honestly, Niki was kind of intimidating. Besides the fact that he towered over you, he was dressed in all black with his hands stuffed nonchalantly into his pockets, like a celebrity who didn’t want to get recognized at the grocery store. He stood there quietly, blissfully unaware of the fact that his presence was causing your brain to malfunction. 
Then, it dawned on you that this boy might be as introverted as you are. It almost felt like you were engaged in a battle to see who was the most socially inept; each of you waiting to see who can endure the unbearable awkwardness the longest until someone cracked and attempted to start a dialogue. You drew in a deep breath.
“So,” you began. “You know my brother from the dance team, right?”
The tension in Niki’s demeanor loosened up. He seemed grateful that you decided to say something first. “Yeah, I met him when I joined the dance team earlier this year.”
You tilted your head quizzically. “Earlier this year? Then why hasn’t he invited you over before?”
“We didn’t start getting close until a few weeks ago,” he explained. “We got assigned to teach a dance together to some of the kids at the middle school, and that’s where we got to know each other better.”
“Ah, I see,” you hummed, nodding. “I heard you’re the captain. That must mean you’re pretty good, right?”
Niki caught his bottom lip between his teeth and smiled bashfully, shyly shifting his eyes away from yours. Cute. 
“I dunno about that,” he murmured. “I just have the most experience. My parents own a dance studio, so I’ve been dancing since I was three.”
Your eyes widened in surprise. “Wow, really? That’s so cool.”
Niki ran a hand through his hair, causing your heartbeat to stutter. He seemed to have gained confidence from your compliment. “Thanks, y/n. Dancing’s pretty much my whole life. Both of my sisters dance, too.”
So he had sisters. You couldn’t help but feel that you wanted to know even more about him. “To be honest, Niki, I had no idea who you were until Sunoo told me that you were coming over. We’re the same age, right? How have we never met before?”
Niki shrugged. “I guess we just never had any classes together. I mean, our school is big, so it’s not unrealistic for us to never have run into each other.”
“I don’t know, it’s just…” you trailed off, searching for the words. “I feel like I definitely would’ve noticed you.”
Niki smirked at that. He almost looked amused. “Are you saying that I’m the type of person that catches your attention?” 
You felt your face heat up. Was he teasing you? “It’s just that I- I, uh- you-”
Almost like an act of divine intervention, Sunoo decided to return to the kitchen at that very moment. You silently thanked him for saving your flustered self and prayed that your cheeks weren’t noticeably red.
“Alright, I’m done!” your brother announced upon his arrival. “Hope you guys weren’t depressed without me.” Turning towards the younger boy, Sunoo said, “Do you want to go up to my room, Niki?”
Niki smiled. “Of course, dude. I’ve been dying to see where the magic happens.”
“I really don’t want to know what that means, but okay!”
As they walked out of the room, Niki threw one last glance at you over his shoulder. “It was nice to meet you, y/n.”
You definitely liked it when he said your name.

at the end of the day, I choose you
Tumblr media
☆AGATHA'S MASTERLIST☆
☆ EDDIE MUNSON'S MASTERLIST ☆
summary : you got involved into a ridiculous case that Eddie falsely accused some kind of a "satanic cult" at school, people called him "freak" just because how he dress and listens to metal music, you didn't knew him very well but in the short amount of time you're with him, he is innocent and he is not exactly what they think about him, they would've loved him like the way you loved him
word count : not gonna make this long, I always keep my word 😩
warnings : 18+ Eddie Munson x FEM!reader, language, Eddie and reader are both 20, no use of y/n, Jason Carver appearance 🤮, I don't know if this is considered a warning but Eddie will face bullying, pure discrimination against him, and the townspeople will be just really mean to him, so yeah, expect this little bit soul crushing but you'll survive lol
what to expect : angst, drama, crime, thriller, suspense, romance and fluff at the near end! hehe 🤫
note to reader : I just had a thought of this, how about Eddie and reader will be at the court room without Vecna and the upside down exist? This is just an ultimate tear-jerker and romance films you've seen hahaha
author note : I just really hope you'll enjoy reading this one! 🥺🫶🏻
☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹
You're not exactly close with Eddie
You don't know him very well, but you knew him of course
You love to watch him annoying those jocks at lunch time
more like..... jerks
But you shared classes together, interacted a bit, he seems nice
You didn't care about the social cliques and about your social status
All you wanted to do is to learn, graduate and hopefully you can get to find friends
and you did.....sort of?
It's very rare for you to vibe with someone has the same age as yours
Jonathan, Steve, Robin and Nancy are the only ones you befriended
They all seem very real to you and you're grateful to have them
But most of the time, you love to bond with Will
You enjoy his company and he is very dear to you
You treat him like your own brother
"How's California?" you ask Will while you're playing with the straw of your vanilla milkshake
He popped a fry on his mouth and he stops chewing "it's good" he lies, and then he swallowed
you moved your milkshake to the side and you lean down "I know when you lie, Byers"
He rolled his eyes as he pushed away his food
"Where do I even begin?" he starts "Me and El had a hard time to adjust in the new environment" he softly says with his eyes flickering with hesitation
You quickly noticed this so you said "You know can always talk to me, right?"
"Yeah" he sheepishly smiles
"Is there someone bothering the both of you?! I would gladly to punch them all so they won't bully you guys anymore!" You jokingly says and Will threw his head back in laughter
You smile at him while he calms back down from his laughter
"There are some mouthbreathers" he admits with a glint of affliction in his eyes
You nod "I completely understand how you feel, just don't mind those assholes" you scoff
He chuckles "I just wish people could be just more open-minded and not mean, you know?"
A smile grows on your lips "This is why you're my favorite in the group" you think to yourself
"I totally get that" you paused "when you try to socialize with people and it feels like they didn't want you, that's okay, just move on and mingle again, and if it has the same energy then it's good! there are more people that willingly to be your friend and much more deserving than those mouthbreathers" you say as you finish your vanilla milkshake
He continues to eat his fries while he listens to you
"Thanks" he beamed and this time you made his eyes light up and that warms your heart
"Don't mention it" you say and you wave at him dismissively
"Have you talked to Jonathan?"
He shook his head and avoids your eyes
He is troubling opening up to his big brother, when they grew apart, the time when he is going for college, but since Jonathan is also your friend and he is always has been vocal about how much he cares for his brother... you know, nothing has changed between the two of them
"He might not be able to reach out to talk to you, but, believe me, Will, he truly does care for you and he always talks about you"
"Really?" he says softly with a small smile
"Yeah, and don't ever, my god! don't ever think of a second thought that he won't be there for you"
He snorted yet again "It's so good to be back at Hawkins"
"You missed me, don't you?" You smirk
"Well, duh" you both laugh together
You grab your purse and you pick out your wallet and slam a $10 on the table "Now, come on, let's go home before Joyce might grounded you"
He chortled and stands up after you stood up and you ruffle his hair while you hug him walking towards to your car
☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹
You're in the Hawkins High Library and you're headed towards to your next class
Until.... a boy with a varsity jacket pulled you in the corner where no else can see you
"Hey, there" it's fucking Jason Carver, you despise him
He kept hitting you up and he won't stop, you turned him down more than a million times already and you're getting exhausted of it
"What the hell, do you want, Carver?" You say bitterly with rage on your eyes, you had enough of him
"Oooh, feisty! still going on strong?" He says ignoring the way you're obviously not interested at him
You shake your head "Leave me the fuck alone!" You say in a whisper-shout and you push him
The action that you just did, angers him, he is so full of himself, thinking that all the girls want him but not you-
You would rather kill yourself than be with him
He grabs your wrist and tightens it, you try to rip it off but he won't let go
"Take your hands off at her" a serious tone coming from the other side of the room
You know that voice, you turn around and you saw Eddie
He menacingly laughs "What you gonna do about it, freak?"
Your face scrunched up of what he just called him, it's too distasteful to you
Sure, you're only classmates but come to think of it
He is more nicer than this douchebag, despite of him wearing the clothes that he's wearing that other people wouldn't approved
He made a death stare to Jason and he says sternly "I'm not going to ask you again, let.... her.... go"
He shoots a pointed look at the bully and he just looks at him up and down, he huffs
He looks back at you and he finally let go of your wrist and you wince at how hard he holds you
"You're not even worth it" Jason spews at you in frustration and you taken a back at his words and he walks away
giving Eddie a hard push at the side and he scoffed
"yeah, right, you bastard!" you shout at him
"What a dick" Eddie watches him leave and you walk past by him and he stops you by holding your hand gently
You halt your tracks as you look down where he holds you "Yes?" You ask
"Are you okay?" he says softly trying to make you look at him
"Yes, Eddie, I'm fine" you reassure him not looking into his eyes
Your eyes softens when he checks your wrist, when he runs his thumb around it, you flinched
He raises his brows at you and you click your tongue
"I'm alright, Eddie, it's just a bruise!" you shrug
"No- I'm taking you to the clinic" He says as he pulls you with him
He is much more respectful and a gentleman than most guys at the school
The fact he is a stranger.... he has much more kindness to those who claim themselves as the good person when in reality
They're the ones who have real bad intentions
Sometimes, people calling someone a "freak" have the purest hearts
after he took care of your wrist, he asks "Can I walk you to class?"
"Uh- yes, you may" you smile at him
He opens the door for you "after you" he gestures outside
You nod at him shyly
☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹
"Hello?" a voice coming from the walkie-talkie on your bedside table is making you wake up from your sleep
You groan and you turn yourself on the side and you place a pillow on your ear but the noise is still clear as day
"Hey, I know you're awake! Pick it up!" His voice becomes more maddening
you sigh and you remove the pillow from your head and you sat up on the bed and pick up the walkie-talkie
"What is it?" You say trying not to sound crabby but Dustin always caught it and you rolled your eyes
"Have you seen, Eddie?" He asks, he sounds jumpy and it confuses you
You glanced over your wrist where Eddie took care of it and you blinked
"Uh- no, I haven't yet, why?" your eyes draw side by side something feels off
"Turn on your TV, right now" he says plainly
You furrow your brows but you did what he asked you to do
You slip off from your blanket and you walked towards to turn on the TV
You sit down on the edge of your bed
"Just In : A student from Hawkins High, female, aged 18, was found dead by unknown circumstances, Jason Carver claims that Eddie Munson is a crime suspect of this murder"
"What the fuck?"
"I know, It's bullshit" Dustin says over at the walkie-talkie
"You haven't heard from him ever since?" you say still looking at the television screen
"Nope, Nada, that's why I've been asking you for over an hour ago!"
Your face crumpled up "Why are you asking me this? You should've known where he is since two of you are friends, right?"
"I know the two of you aren't close but Lucas saw you and Eddie at the clinic yesterday"
Oh
"So I'm just guessing.... maybe... you knew something else before he got missing in action"
"No, uh- after the clinic, he walked me to class and I went home afterwards"
"Uh huh, okay, well, thanks for the info"
"Dustin"
"Yeah?"
You take a last look on the TV, this isn't right, he shouldn't be treated like this
"Can I help?"
"Oh- We don't have all day! I'll be at the Wheelers, I meet you there!" He exclaims
Not the response you expected but you get up and grab your purse and drove away
You sit back and watch all of the kids discussing about the situation
"I-it doesn't make any sense! Eddie might look scary but he would never do this" Mike paces back and forth
"Exactly, we all know that Eddie and Jason didn't get along together, but no matter how mean is Jason to him, he wouldn't lay a finger on that, man!" Lucas added
"I hope he is somewhere safe" Will says
"How can you be so sure that he didn't do it?" Max looks at Dustin in question
"You don't know him like I do, Max!" Dustin raises his voice and all of you got the attention
He glances at Lucas and he gives him a small smile as he took a deep breath
"High school can be tough, when Lucas made all of his sports friends, Mike and I we had no one" he paused
"No one except Eddie" he says as he sats down beside you and your gently rub his back
He looks at you with a light nod, he really wants to find his friend and you can tell he is worried for him
Max looks at Dustin with empathy on her eyes
"Listen, man, Jason" Lucas nervously swallows
All of you look at him in confusion
"He won't stop looking for him, he is blinded by his own rage, I-I ran away before they can get suspicious, but I guess I am also wanted too"
"What do you mean?" You ask him
"They knew that I was playing D&D and they saw the picture of us, The Hellfire Club, a-and I saw him burning it"
You, Mike, Dustin, Max and Will shared looks that are filled with disturbance
"I felt unsettled, the last thing that I heard from them, I think they're going to-" Lucas and the look in his eyes, you know what it is already
The tension in the room is dark and it feels like tying a knot into your stomach
"Oh, god" you cupped your mouth
"We need to look for him right now!" Dustin shouts
☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹
"Will you stop making fun of me, Robs?" Steve grumbles while fixing the tapes in the front desk
She flashes out a smug smile "I just love to see your face turns bright red" she laughs
Steve gives Robin a look that says "I will annihilate you"
Robin raises both of shoulders with a soft "Fine" jumps out of the seat and picks up the other VHS tapes
Hopper and Jane enters inside the Family Video
Steve and Robin eyes both light up and Jane does the same
"Hi" she says shyly
"Good day" Hopper greets them
Steve nods to him and Robin "Good day to you too, chief!" with a dramatic salute and making Jane laugh
Robin exits the front desk and walks around towards to Jane
"What can I help you?" Robin excitement in her eyes glowing
Jane looks up to Hopper and says "You go ahead"
"I want a movie with fantasy and adventure" she says with a soft smile
"With a bit of romance?" She winks, of course, she knows that this is Mike's girl
She chuckles "Yeah"
Steve and Hopper watch them as they look over the Fantasy/Adventure section
"Is she always this excited to other kids?" Hopper asks
"Uh, I guess? I see her hanging around with the others but I think she likes Jane's company a lot more" Steve leans down on the counter with his hands locked together
Hopper grows a smile on his lips while he listens "I don't blame her, she radiates positive energy, you know"
Steve agrees "Yeah, she does" he ends it with a smile on his face
Two townspeople entered the premises
Steve immediately knows who they are, Mr. Ron Cunningham and Mr. Jake Carver
They headed on the side of the room
"You don't have to do this, Jake, you know it is not right" Ron trying to convince Jake about his plan
Ignoring his words by saying
"Thank god for my boy, Jason Carver, he is like the god's messenger, what he said about Eddie Munson? is a true vessel for Satan" he delusionally said
Steve overheard their conversation as he halts to what he was doing as he quietly says "What the fuck?"
He stole a glance from Hopper, only to find out that he also heard it
They both shared a knowing look as they continue pretending not to hear about anything
The two chatted with each other, the sound becomes clearer and clearer as they walks closer to the counter
"They even made a fucking cult, what is it called again?"
"Hellfire Club" Ron answers, he exasperated sighs
"my god, I wonder some of our children got brainwashed by that kid!" He exclaims
"Look, Jake, just because that boy, Eddie Munson likes to listen metal music or play D&D doesn't mean they love to sacrifice lives?!? HE IS JUST A KID!" Ron shouts at him
Ignoring him yet, again
"Rock Music is nothing more than satanic cyanide, I bet it hypnotizes you, just a little game? That's what they wanted you to think" Jake throws the VHS on the counter
Ron rolls his eyes at him as he places his tape on the counter
Robin and Jane, overheard it while they're waiting for their turn to pay for the VHS
Their faces dropped in such tension, all of them started to wonder, what will happen to Eddie?
They're not as close to Eddie, but all of them know that it is not right to punish someone who is clearly innocent
While they're paying for the VHS, Jake recognizes Steve
"Hey, you're a Harrington right?"
Steve raises his head with a serious look and glances over to Hopper before he could answer
"Yeah, I am"
"I heard you used to be like so popular back then like Jason but now" he looks up and down at Steve disgustedly
"You're one of those freaks as well"
"Like father and son, both of them are assholes" he thinks to himself
"My son outshined you, Steve"
"Yeah, well, at least I'm not falsely accusing someone" Steve bites back but Hopper gives him a look that says "Stop"
Before Jake can respond, Ron pulled him away, dragging him outside the exit
"Sorry about that, Steve" Ron shows a small smile
Even for a short second, Steve can already pick up, he can see in his eyes, the sadness and heartache
It's Chrissy, his daughter is the one who got brutally murdered
"We need to call Dustin right now!" Robin whisper-shout
☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹
You manage to find Eddie by asking Gareth and Jeff, his safe place, the one place where he could be truly be himself
All of the gang reunited, on the search for Eddie
The house is empty with no lights are on
There is one however open, on the side of the house
The moment you opened the door
Eddie, jumps out of nowhere on Steve pins him against the wall with a broken glass bottle, startling all of you
"Eddie! It's me! It's Dustin! This is Steve!" Dustin shouts
"We're on your side" he emphasizes his point with his finger pointing to all of you and back to him "I swear on my mother!" Dustin exclaims
Even when it's dark, only flashlights that all of you using, you can see the fear in his eyes, he is terrified
"Eddie?" your soft voice eases out the tension from him
He looked back at you, seeing you standing there beside Dustin
He turns back at Steve again, with Dustin saying "Steve, would you drop the oar?"
It clatters and making Eddie bringing up the broken glass closer to him
"Eddie, please, we're with you"
He looks back at you again, he takes a double check, that it is real, he is not dreaming
It is really you
His gaze softens and as walks away from Steve
You gave him and Dustin, a moment together
Police car wails pass by the area, you saw while looking at the window
"Hey" Dustin speaks up behind you
"Yes?"
"He wants to talk to you"
You looked over to Dustin's shoulder, you see him sitting all alone outside fidgeting with his rings
"Don't worry, he's all good" Dustin says
"Okay" you pat him back and give him a small smile
You walk towards him slowly, you say "Hi" softly
He only nod in response, you sat down beside him
"What are you doing here?" He asks not looking at you, his eyes were on the soft waves of the water
"I- uh, I just wanted to help" you say while raise your one knee close to your chest
"Do you believe it?"
"No, I don't"
Now, this time, your eyes meet, he stares at you for a while and goes back to the water
You raise a plastic bag in front of him
He furrowed his brows together, he turn his head to face you and you smiled "it's for you"
You gave it to him and he picks out a bag of pretzels, his eyes goes wide and a six pack beer
"How did you know that these are my favorite?" He asks while holding up a bag of pretzels
You shrugged "I saw you all the time with it, especially at lunchtime"
He genuinely smiles that reaches to his ears
"Thank you, sweetheart" he says while opens the bag of pretzels and he grabs a handful and chomps on it
You chuckled lightly on his action, how in the world would people think he is dangerous?
The demon in question, is literally devouring pretzels cutely
You shook your head at the thought
"For the record, I didn't only helped, Dustin"
He stops chewing for a second while he looks at you closely
"I came because I want to help you"
He blinks and he swallows, he glances at your wrist the one he took care of yesterday, still covered with a bandage
You stand up "and I don't believe them"
"What do you believe?"
"You, I believe you" you say while you give a small squeeze from his shoulder
You smiled at him and you walk away
He laughs under his breath, he watches you and opens a can of beer
He takes a sip of it, feeling oddly tingles on his stomach and brain
He became infatuated for you
☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹
A loud banging from the door, all of you woken up, you straighten yourself up
You saw the police cars outside, you saw Gareth and Jeff with Jason's goons
They looked.... beaten up
Your heart starts beating speedily, you look for Eddie, he is already staring at you, he is afraid
"Did anyone told where we are?!" Dustin with his eyes almost bulge out from his skull
"I didn't told a soul" you give a pointed look at Dustin
"Unless" Lucas says
"Unless, what?" Mike speaks up
"Someone is already watching in Gareth's place, before you came" Lucas gulped and all of you looked at each other with the same thought
"Hey, open up!" Officer Calvin Powell demands from the outside
"I'll handle this, kid" Hopper reassures Eddie sniffles and frozen in place
You walked towards to Eddie "You need to hide" you whispered to him
"No"
"What?!"
"I'm done hiding, I'm not running away again"
"But, Eddie, you've done nothing wrong"
"I-I know, I am not scared anymore because-" he paused tearing his eyes away from you in a moment
"You're here" his eyes roams around your features with a sad smile on his face
You sigh "Eddie- this isn't the time to be heroic-" he place a finger on your lips cutting you off, you knit your brows together
He holds both of your shoulders "you gave me hope"
Your eyes became glossy "Eddie, please, don't do this"
"It will be okay, we can get through with this" he says while he moves his hands up and down on your shoulder, raising one up to tuck your hair behind your ear
You stare at each other, smiling to one another
Before you know it, your little time together has cut off
Officer Callahan came into the scene "Eddie Munson on your knees, put your hands behind your head!"
You gasped and you frown at him, Eddie follows the instructions carefully
The protest from Dustin, Lucas, Will, Mike, Jane, Steve and Robin voices drawn out from your ear
It was loud at first until it feels all blurry to you
You can't even hear some of your friends begging not to arrest Eddie, your heart drops at the sight of him, cuffing his hands
He gave one last smile at you, "I'll see you again soon, sweetheart" he says
You hold his cheeks with sympathy on your eyes
You glanced over to Jason with infuriating look to him
He crossed both of his arms with a smug smile on his face
While heading towards the police car, Steve jogs to reach Eddie
"Hey, man, look, I know a lawyer that can help you" he points to himself and the group
"We will help you"
Eddie only chuckles "Thanks, dude, you don't need to do that, Harrington"
"Please, let us help you, Eddie" Steve sighs
Before he can respond, he heard his uncle's car arrived
He gets out of the car, just to see his nephew with cuffs on
He ran towards to him only to be stopped by other police officers
"No! What are you doing?!- Stop this! My boy is innocent!" His voice cracks up and Eddie ducks his head down, he doesn't want to see his uncle distressed
Your heart crushed into pieces when you heard his uncle cried out for his nephew
You sharply inhale and you close your eyes, if Eddie says it will be okay
Then you'll just have to trust him and have faith
☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹
Steve did kept his word for him, he found a perfect lawyer
The case goes on and on for days and weeks
The real suspect is still at large and people are just wasting their time on the wrong guy
There's got to be way to end this
You had an conversation with Chrissy's father over at diner, you thought he'll be fuming at you since the whole town is clearly.....
Hate everyone who is friends with the town freak
People seriously need to wake up
You had a couple of death threat's and it feels like the whole world is against you and your friends
Ron Cunningham stopped being friends with Jake, he had enough of his behavior
He is sick as fuck like his own son
"Of course, I was mad, but it isn't right to be violently revenge on someone who is innocent" he says while he takes a sip of his coffee
"Yes, you can be angry, you have the right to be angry of losing your loved one but I just-" he shakes his head
"It's wicked to do something like that, ending someone's life when there's like no proof at all?!?" he laughs in disbelief
You stare at him directly while listening to him "How are you so certain of this?"
He clears his throat "My daughter once told me, Eddie helped her while she's having hard time with herself, mentally and physically"
You nod and he added "She doesn't open up to me a lot but I know my daughter, I knew that fucker, Jason wasn't good for my little girl but..... she loves him so much i couldn't bear to see her like that so i let her"
"Wait- do Jason, knew about this?"
"About her personal problems?"
"Not that I'm aware of"
"Can you testify for tomorrow?"
He quickly averted his eyes from you while he looks out at the window "I-I can't"
"Why not?"
He remains silent until you know the reason why he hesitated, he is petrified of the Carver's
"You could bring justice to your own daughter, Ron and you could also do the same for Eddie"
You lean in closer "I-I know im not in the exact same world with Chrissy but I interacted with her before, she is an angel such a sweet soul"
His eyes became misty and sniffles, showing you a sad smile
"It is unacceptable to ruin someone's life, only to find out a few years later, they realized that Eddie has done nothing wrong"
"Jason and Jake are just people who need guidance for their wrong point of view at beliefs about everything" you pressed your lips together
"Whoever that person is still out there, everyone life's are in danger because they focused on the wrong person" you place a one dollar bill on the table
You stood up before you leave "I hope I'll see you in the court room, Ron"
Your words made him think deeply, he despises the Carver's, they will get karma from what they've done
☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹
While at the courtroom, you twiddle with your thumbs, anxiously or wishes a miracle would happen
"Did you get to talk with Ron?" Steve asks, scoots closer to you
"Yeah, but"
"Oh no, it went wrong didn't it?"
"No, from what I just said last night, I think I pulled a string from him"
"So, where is he then?"
"I just don't know if he'll come around"
"He is a Cunningham, those people won't let you down"
"How can you be so sure?"
"Him and my father, we're pals back then" his eyes searches for Ron but no sign of him
"Oh" you raise your brows
Eddie steals a chance to glance at you everytime he can, he thought after you found him you'll stop but there you are again
Present at all times, helping him yet again
It's unbelievable to him that someone like you are devoted to get him out of here
"Again for the last time, did you bring someone to testify?!" The judge is impatiently waiting for the 2nd consideration
If Eddie's lawyer asked for more 5 minutes, the judge will dismiss this case and declaring that he is guilty
You and Steve panicked, both don't know what to do
Until....
"They did" Ron enters the courtroom heading towards on the side
You and Steve both sigh of relief, Ron glances at you and you smiled
Mouthing a "Thank you" to him
The courtroom with him is going well, until it's shit again
is Ron Cunningham isn't enough evidence?
"I'm sorry, guys, I think we're almost there, we just need to keep trying" Ron reassures all of you
"There's definitely something's fishy in this case" Hopper agrees
"It's corruption" Lucas added
"They're fucking stalling if you asked me" Dustin scoffed
"I hope the bad guy will face conscience to what mess he just did" Will shoves his face into his hands
"I smell bribery in that place" Mike frustratingly groans
"It's a room full with liars" Jane huffs
"Jane, you're a genius!" your voice was so loud to make all of their attention goes to you
Wayne smirks and you too making them more confused than as ever
"I am?" Jane points to herself, puzzled at the situation
"My boy, Eddie never lies" Wayne says
"We need a proof that is so strong that they just can't turn it down, I gurantee tomorrow is our lucky day" you say while you whispered into Robin's ear
You told them about your plan and it is excellent idea
Robin goes back to the room saying "I called the two of our allies, they're game for tomorrow"
"Great, let's just sit tight and wait for the magic begins" you chuckled
☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹
It's the last court day
Eddie is aware of it, he is nervous as hell
You sneak up from behind, startling him, you say "sorry" softly
"It's going to be okay" you say while holding his hand, you echoed the one he told you before
Eddie looks into your eyes and all he can see is filled with bravery and confidence
He is taken a back from it "I admire all of this, sweetheart"
You smile at him making him genuinely smile at you again, you're missing this
He always asks for you to hold your hand before the case begins, it helps with his anxiety
The judge came in saying "I think it's time for the jury to-"
"Not so fast, there's one more thing left to discuss" Nancy holds up one of the folders
"Justice for Eddie!" Jonathan yells making your side of the room cheered
Eddie's lawyer tackles the mysterious folder that is given to him
He catches up to what this means already
"It seems like the paperwork that I have right here with me proves that my client is truely innocent" he starts
30 or 40 students from Hawkins High, boys and girls told the whole court that they we're bullied and harassed by Jason Carver
One student claims that he gets away with anything, stating that he never holds accountable for what he has done
Jason slumps down from his seat, his father is now pissed off at him
Jason looks at you across the room, staring daggers at you, while you just flip him off
"Eat your own medicine" you mouth to him
This commotion earned a look from the judge, the jury and some of the townspeople in the room
"Can I testify?" You get up on your feet, all of your friends turn at you shockingly
Eddie with his lips apart at your voice, you can feel his eyes on you
"You go ahead, young lady" the judge proceeds
"I admit that I don't know Eddie personally, but a few small interactions with him, he is far more different guys that I met, I felt safe whenever I'm around him, I guess Chrissy might felt the same as I did" you took a deep breath
"Eddie might look scary to some of you, but he only did that just to protect himself" your eyes meet Eddie's
You look over at the jury "Can you imagine the life of being an outcast? Bullied most of your life, of course, you need to look tough so that people will leave you alone" you holding back the tears from your eyes
"About the music, most of us, rely on that, is what keeps us going, you don't know maybe it inspires us, it helps us to whatever we're going through"
"Open your eyes and look hard enough, think deeper, be more emotionally available to your children, just listen and try to understand"
One of the jury asks "Are you saying that you trust Eddie?"
You quickly wiped a tear that escapes from your eye "Yes, I trust him"
You turn around to look at the judge "People at my school called him names "Freak" "Weirdo" and "Loser" you laugh incredulously
"Sometimes people who are seem odd to you maybe the one who saved most of your children lives"
Another one from the jury speaks up "I'm not following this"
"He gathered a group who doesn't find their place in the school's environment, he never left anyone out"
Another group of students just barge in inside (this wasn't part of your plan and it shocks you)
Claiming that Eddie Munson, helped them
You, Eddie and your friends light up at the scenario
Eddie became teary eyed, even he's a little bit far away from you, you can see his hand shaking
"I rest my case" you say as you go back from the seat with your friends
You placed a hand on Eddie's shoulder and he pats it with a grateful smile
Everyone is appalled and began rethinking decisions since the proof felt so real to all of them
"I may have come to the conclusion, a review of the alleged falsely accused crime of murder, Eddie Munson, who you people believe is a devil worshipper, when there's people out there have bad intentions, but for my observation, these people right here,"
The judge points to all of you, you feel frightened and your heart starts racing
"Spoke the truth and they indeed preach and fight for what is right, so therefore, I pledge NOT GUILTY of all the charges" he finishes with the bang of the gavel
All of you screamed in victorious mood
Dustin jumped, Steve starts whooping, Robin whistles, Mike, Lucas, Gareth and Jeff give themselves a high five, Jane and Max both said "Oh my god" at the same time, Will hugged you completely overjoyed at the success
Nancy and Jonathan salutes to you with a wink and you laugh
Hopper watches all of you, he smiles in content
"Those kids never stopped believing do they?" Ron laughs in a cheerful way
"They're not giving up that's for sure" Hopper says as he shoves his hands down on his pockets
You saw Wayne embraced Eddie, and both of them cried in such happiness, your felt your heart warmth with jubilant
You let yourself enjoy of this blissful moment
☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹☹
It's been 2 months since the case happened
The suspect finally turn himself in the Hawkins Police, after the case was finished, he is ashamed for what happened to Eddie, he is now put behind bars, Ron Cunningham avenged his daughter, he can feel that Chrissy is smiling down at him
Justice was served on both sides
Eddie is much more open and felt welcomed than before
He also noticed that there's an improvement after the impact that he has done
It felt good to him, felt safe and sound, the school takes bullies very seriously now
No more social cliques, no more who's popular and who is not
The hatred is gone, Eddie never felt this alive since he never knew this could happen in his life
You and your friends hang out a lot, all of you got more closer together and more caring to one another
Meanwhile, at Steve's place having a movie night, with foods and drinks for everyone
"Hey" a voice from your beloved person
"Oh! Eddie!" You didn't think twice of hugging him and he melts easily at your touch
"Can I have a word for you?" He asks in a serious tone and you got intimidated
"Uh, sure, Ed's" you beamed at him
You're in Steve's backyard and he closes the door
The gloomy breeze hits your exposed shoulders, Eddie noticed this he gets out of his jacket and offers it to you
Before you can say no, he give you a warning look and you chortled
The warmth tender that gives you from his jacket, you felt bubbly all over
"What's up, Eddie?"
"I've been meaning to ask you" his voice sounds shaky and you find his doe eyes cute
He wastes no time and he just blurted it out
"Can I ask you on a date?" He sheepishly smiles
Words got caught up on your throat but you recovered, you didn't expected this
"I would love to go out with you" you smile widely
He blinks rapidly "You do?" he grins
"Yes" you nod aggressively and it made him laugh
"You're so unreal"
"Why?"
"I've never knew that I will have the girl that I always wanted"
Your eyes sparks with adoration "I will always be your girl, Eddie"
He places his hand over his chest "Well, shit my darling, I think you got me all over the floor now"
You giggled "I have something to tell you too"
He nods motioning you to continue
"I-I think I've fallen in love with you, ever since the day at the clinic"
His eyes almost popped out of his skull
"How about now?" He says softly while reaches down to holds your hand and runs his thumbs over your knuckles
"I love you" you confessed
"Really?"
"I really do"
"There's no one else?" He looked down, he tries not to look into your eyes
You frown, you cupped his cheek to make him meet your gaze
"Eddie, why would I do that? when you captured my heart in the first place"
He chuckles, he places his hands over your shoulders, you blushed
"Sweetheart, I love you so much, you're so good to me, you're amazing and the most incredible thing that has ever happened to me, you never had a thought of giving up to me, you believe in me when no else did, you cared for me even when your life is endangered, you willing to do anything just to save me, I'm so blessed having you in my life, I am truly indebted to you" he leans in closer
You gasped, you never been this close to him before
"Thank you for everything, I wouldn't be here without you" he does the same thing, he tucks your hair behind your ear
"For all the problems, liars and dirty cheats of the world at the end of the day, I choose you"
"And we will get through all of it like we always do" he says
You make a quick kiss on his lips and he flustered by your action but he smirks
"You call that a kiss?" He raises a brow
You acted all coy and until he pulled in closer for a real kiss
He gave you a kiss like no other, it's electricfying and pure love
You both smile in the kiss fondly, he savors and treasures this moment
Having you in his arms and hugging each other
You know, you'll be okay for the rest of your life as long as you have him on your side
You got nothing else to worry about....

their relationship was bound to happen in (almost) every universe, world and reality
happy belated birthday della (and me^^) and happy belated anniversary to my favourite poly couple. this is my longest fic at 5500+ words
"What did you think of the movie?" Jay asked Della, who was the only one who hasn't stated her opinion.
It was one of the rare moments when all the Enha members watched in the cinema together. They were all curious about the most-awarded film that just won best picture at the Academy.
"I didn't think it was gonna be that funny but it was hilarious," Della smiled. "It was hilarious and sad. It was really good. I loved it."
"Anything else?" Jake asked. They could all tell that there was something in her mind.
"I really liked Waymond.. and I cried a few times near the end..." they know her too well. She had more things in mind. "You guys know I didn't watch the new Doctor Strange movie, right?"
"Mm," they have an idea of where it's going.
"What Waymond said in the movie star universe made me cry, first off. But it also made me think..." she played with her fingers. "The multiverse thing is most probably fiction but I really hope that we get to be together in a lot more universes than this one. All eight of us."
"Don't think about it, darling. The multiverse isn't real and I'm sure our relationship would've existed in another universe if it was. Maybe even most of them."
Tumblr media
washington, united states of america
"Shit. I think everyone has formed their groups," Alice mumbled to Della. "Looks like we're the only ones left.. again."
"Seriously?! What about Jen and..." Della frantically turned her head to her other friends. "Fuck, they have eight people."
"One, two, three, four..." she heard Alice count quietly. "Fuck, there are two groups of seven so we have to split."
"Shit..." well that's the price you pay for being friends with everyone so you're not in a specific friend group and only stick with your best friend. "Not lucky this time," she sighed at the thought of being separated from (practically) her other half.
"Yeah..." Alice was still looking around the class. "I just realised one of the available groups is with H7! All seven of them!" Della scrunched her face at the name.
"Please don't call them that, that's cringy as fuck," H7 is what the student body calls this one friend group. All seven students are in the basketball team and are all handsome. Hence the name; Handsome 7. "What about the other one?"
"Is everyone done picking the groups?!" the teacher asked out before Alice could answer.
"Not yet!" Della and Alice said in unison.
"Hurry up, you two. Ethan's group is open, Luke's group is open," great- it's pick your poison.
Either Della gets grouped with a bunch of boys- and H7 at that, or groups with her ex and his 'girl best friend' who never liked her.
"Good luck with H7," Alice whispered in her ear, getting up to sit with Luke's team without a second thought.
Now that's a best friend. Della couldn't help but smile at the thought. 
She grabbed her favourite pen and notebook before heading to where the seven popular boys sat.
She wonders why no one chose to sit here, considering the many fangirls they have. I guess they wanna be with their friends more.
"Sorry to squeeze myself in," she sat on the only empty seat next to number seven. Otherwise known as Will.
Will was always so smiley and friendly to everyone, he doesn't just stick around the popular kids. He's almost like the sunshine of the group. Yet he's a totally different person on the field. He does not play around.
"Not at all," majority of them said.
"Della, right?" number four, Johnny, asked. Johnny is straightforward and mature, somewhat like the leader of the group. Interestingly enough, his looks are quite the opposite. His eyes and fluffy cheeks resemble those of a cat. Absolutely adorable.
Take his smile away and you got yourself a fierce cat.
"Yeah," she smiled softly. "I'm sure you know that I know you all already."
"I'm Jake," number five- okay let's cut out the jersey numbers, cocked his chin up. Jake is known for his insane basketball skills and a real big flirt. Doesn't necessarily play with girls' hearts though. All bark and no bite.
"Ricky," Ricky cloned Jake's head cocking with raised eyebrows. Ricky is really cool. The way he looks, moves, talks, everything. Cool in general but his playfulness comes out within the group. They're all the same age, yet it's almost as if he's the youngest of H7.
"Hi," Della awkwardly said. What else was she supposed to do?
"I'm Will," "Johnny," two of them did the same.
"We've been in the same school for a few years now. I know your names," she chuckled.
"Well I'm Ethan," Ethan brought his hand out for a handshake. While Jake was the flirt, Ethan was the one who's an actual player.
Not really though. From what Della has heard, he treats his past girlfriends like royalty. She suspects that he's just desperate on finding the one... in high school?
"Hi Ethan. I'm Della," she grinned and shook his hand.
"Oh, so Ethan gets a personal 'hi' and a handshake?" Ben had his arms crossed, eyeing their hands with a lazy smirk.
"Hi Ben," her smile stayed as she rolled her eyes. Ben likes to joke around with his friends. Exclusively his friends. Everyone knows how loud and hyper he gets but only a handful of people can make him like that.
"So everyone has a group now right?!" the teacher yelled out again. "I'm going to explain the project!"
"Yes!" some students answered. The class immediately turned quiet to hear the instructions.
"I'm Jay, by the way," the guy across from her leaned in to whisper in her ear. "Nice to meet you, Della."
Della mostly remembers Jay from his parents who helped fund the school. Crazy rich.
Everyone's somewhat rich since they attend the state's top private school. But Jay's family is on another level. Even his uniform looks more expensive.
"Nice to meet you too, Jay," she made the mistake of looking him straight in the eye within close proximity.
He really is handsome. Straight out of a magazine.
"I hope you don't get bored of us. We're really looking forward to doing this project with you," they seem to be stuck in that position.
"Really?" she raised her eyebrows.
"Mhm," Della swallowed at how hot he sounded.
"Ditto."

seoul, south korea — txt & en- playground
"She's so pretty," Niki giggled to his hyungs.
"She's prettier in real life- how's that possible?" Sunghoon gushed to them quietly too.
"What did I say about talking about this in public?" Heeseung scolded. "People might hear and we haven't even debut yet."
"Easy for you to say. You trained with her so you know what she looks like up close," Jay chuckled.
"Aish- just don't make things so obvious. Stop staring at her."
TXT's Della is one of the country's top visual. Nicknamed 'Korea's Siren', it's no surprise that she has lots of admirers. Even her juniors can't seem to resist her charm.
"Should we talk to them?" Della asked her bandmates. "I feel bad. They keep looking at us but must feel so awkward."
The five other members looked at each other with a knowing look. Time to play wingmen.
"Let's go! But I need to head to the restroom," Yeonjun slightly widened his eyes to the boys, trying to tell them to leave with him.
"Wait! Me too!" "I'm coming!" "I need to go too!" "I need to pee!" they said at the same time.
"What?! Guys don't leave me here!" Della watched them all stand up. "I'm gonna go to the restroom too!" 
"NO No!" the members stopped her.
"You need to keep our seats warm!" Beomgyu tried to think of an excuse.
"But I would need five butts.." Della raised her eyebrows.
"Well..."
"You guys are being weird but I'll listen to you anyway because I trust that what you're planning is something good," she sat back on her seat. "Have fun doing your business guys!" she waved.
"We love you, Della! Trust the process! Please be your cool self!" Kai exclaimed before the five disappeared.
"She's alone!" Jake whispered aggressively to his bandmates.
"Subtlety! Subtlety!" Jungwon reminded when most of the guys turned their head to where she sat.
"Should we go say 'hi'? Say that we're big fans?" despite being a shy group, Enha wishes to do so many things and that includes making the first move.
They already talked earlier. What's so different now?
There's no hiding behind the other TXT members, that's what.
"The Tubatu guys probably did this on purpose," Heeseung mumbled.
"Should we just... go there?" Jay tried to confirm the plan.
"Yeah yeah, let's just-" before they could continue, Sunoo stood up from his seat.
"I'm gonna go grab a snack first. Wait up."
"Hurry back!" Niki called after him. 
Sunoo let out a sigh. He can't believe that every single one of his bandmates took an interest in the girl she's admired since her debut.
He doesn't own her or anything but well technically he liked her first.
Or maybe Heeseung did since they trained together for a bit.
"Don't you like macarons?" Della suddenly joined Sunoo in the snack table.
"Ah that surprised me!" he jumped, placing a hand on his chest. 
And he got even more surprised at the fact that the girl his members were gushing about was standing right there.
"Sorry, sorry," Della held her hand up with an embarrassed smile. She thought that it was the perfect opportunity to talk to the young group; by slowly starting with one member and eventually everyone else.
"Hello!" he quickly bowed.
"Hello," her smile changed to a warm one.
"How did- how did you know I like macarons?" he covered the bottom half of his face.
"I watched I-Land. You ate it in the first episode," she giggled.
Oh my God. She watched I-Land.
"Your cover of Crown was amazing, by the way. Absolutely did it justice," oh my God, she's complimenting me.
"Ahh thank you so much!" he bowed slightly.
"Listen.. I really wanna get to know Enhypen- as friends! Of course!" her voice had slight panic in them. "You guys seem really cool and sweet so..." she started to feel really shy.
"Of course! They really wanted to meet you too," the two looked at the other six and found them staring. They quickly snapped out of it to give her a small bow.
"Cute," she smiled. "I would love to get close- if you!" she stammered. "If you guys don't mind! I know it's risky for male and female idols to be close so..." Sunoo can't help but soften at her words.
He should be slightly jealous at how she wanted to get to know all seven and not just him, yet for some reason, he just felt warmth. Kang Della is interested in them. All of them.
"Don't worry. All seven of us would absolutely love to get close with you."

riverfield, webtoon world  [dara = sooha]
"Dara! Wait up!" Shion yelled out. 
Dara turned around to find her seven new friends walking towards her.
Or well... more like to the dorms.
"Shion! Hi!" Dara grinned when they caught up to where she was. "Are you all heading to the dorms?"
"Yup! We're about to go and hang in Solon's room though! Would you like to join?" Jino invited enthusiastically.
"Jino!" Solon scolded his friend through their mind-link. "What did I say about getting close to Dara?!"
"That it's an amazing idea to get her to be our friend?" Jaan answered.
"Pfftt.. friend," Noa held back a smirk. "You all act like you don't want more," they knew the youngest was right but didn't want to acknowledge it. Even Noa himself regretted saying it. Now his brothers might think that he doesn't want her.
"Solon's right. Dara shouldn't get mixed up with vampires, it's dangerous," Jakah said, his hesitance evident.
"Guys?" Dara waved her hand with furrowed eyebrows, unaware and unable to hear the vamps' conversation. The action also brought those boys back to what they were initially doing.
"Yes! Yes?" Heli was the first to respond.
"Were none of you listening?" she frowned slightly. There were seven guys there. How did NO ONE pay attention?
"No, I was!" "I was listening!" Shion and Jino said together in panic.
"I was just about to say 'that's great' and 'let's get going then,'" Jaan tried to make it smooth.
"I'm sorry Dara, I spaced out," Noa said, attempting to get points for honesty.
"Noa, how can you space out when Dara's talking?" Shion gasped dramatically.
"Like you weren't lying just now-" the bickering would've gone for longer if Heli didn't cut them off.
"Sure, Dara. Why don't we all walk to your room together and then move to Solon's?" Heli, being the one with actual telepathic abilities, was able to multitask perfectly. He was the only one to catch what Dara said.
'I'm flattered and would love to join, but I actually wanted to give you all a little something. Do you mind if I go over to my room to grab it real quick?'
"She wants to grab something from her room before joining," Heli quickly relayed the message.
"Perfect! Let's head on to Dara's room!" Jino exclaimed. "You coming, Solon?"
Solon's ears practically had steam coming out of them. He wanted to tell his brothers off for being so dumb and smitten over a human.
But it's not like he isn't too.
"I'm coming with. I wanna see what she prepared for us," Jakah intended his mind-link for Solon, showing how the older would be the only one absent.
"Fine," he grumbled before walking ahead of the group a little.
As they were making their way, he could hear his brothers laughing and chatting with Dara, causing him to be in an actual sour mood.
When he looked back once, he found that the girl was standing beside the eldest and grinning up at him.
'She probably only prepared something for Heli,' he internally scoffed. He was unaware of the jealousy he felt.
Yet once they reached her room, his predictions of the girl was oh so wrong.
"Hi! Sorry for the wait, so uhh..." she exited her room with seven small containers at hand. "This is a cream for whenever you get injured. It's supposed to work for everything, it's multipurpose. But if it doesn't work then just come to me and I'll give you something stronger."
She had actually thought about all of them. She noticed the injuries that they sustained during their last battle. 
"Nightball seems very demanding so you might use this up well," she giggled. She still believes that their injuries came from the sport.
Solon watched as she handed everyone their own cream, complete with a handwritten label of their names.
"Actually Solon, do you mind if I put this on for you? Your injury looks really bad," she looked at his forearm with worry. She had saved him for last.
"Yeah, sure," he practically whispered.
The seven boys silently observed as this girl carefully tended to the wound on Solon's arm, and they felt their hearts warming up (more). 
Solon wasn't exactly lovely to her, but she stayed patient and kind.
'Fuck being a human- I really like her.'

brisbane, australia — 2010
"DELLA!" the seven boys yelled out from outside Della's house. "DELLLLAA!" 
"No way..." Della muttered to herself and looked out her bedroom window.
There they are. Her very annoying, seven best friends.
"Della!" her mother called from downstairs. "The boys are here for you!"
"Just a second, mom!" she rushed to put on some socks and hurried down.
"Careful! Careful! No running!" her mother scolded. "Especially with socks, you might slip and fall."
"Sorry mommy," Della gave her a big hug as an apology. 
"Be careful, okay?" her mother reminded before opening the front door. "Hello kids!"
"Hi Mrs. King!" "Hello!" the boys said together.
"Is Alice not joining?" Della was putting on her shoes as her mother asked questions.
"Not today, Mrs. King. She had to go to the dentist," Johnny answered for the group, as always.
"Oh okay. What are you guys planning to do today?"
"We're gonna watch a movie in Jay's house!" Will replied enthusiastically. 
"Huh? Why are you all here then? Della could've gone with just Jake and Ben," Mrs. King pointed at their two (closest) neighbours. They all live near one another, but Jake and Ben lives two houses away from the Kings'.
"We wanna make sure Della was being careful and safe," Jay gave a charming smile.
❅◦❆◦❅◦❆◦❅◦❆◦❅◦❆
"The movie was so romantic!" Della gushed on once they were done watching. "Especially in the lanterns!"
The guys wanted to watch Megamind, but instead they got sucked into watching Tangled because that's what Della wanted.
They barely paid any attention and mostly talked throughout the movie, yet having them agree to watch her (already) favourite movie was more than enough to make her happy.
She has watched it a million times since it came out anyway.
"Oh I wish I had magic glowing hair! I can just sing 'flower bling and glow, let your power shine' and boom! I'll be young forever!" she twirled around in a daydream.
"We're seven, Della. Don't you wanna grow up a bit and then be young forever?" Ben brought her back to reality.
"I wanna be a kid forever!" Ricky spun around in circles. "I wanna be five and not go to school!"
"Yeah! I just want nap times and games in school!" Jake caught Ricky, making them fall into the large couch.
"Ben has a point though! I wanna be a dancer when I grow up! A real one!" Della was used to all the chaos of being friends with the seven kids. They just enjoy each other's company as is.
"I wanna be a dancer too! I wanna make a dance team and dance all around the world!" Ricky yelled.
"Guys! Let's make a team when we grow up!" Ethan proposed his idea.
"A team?" "What team?" everyone calmed down in interest.
"Any team! We can be a doctors team! A team astronaut team! Dancers! Police! Let's just make a team!" his little voice sounded so certain.
"I wanna be a biker," Jay calmly stated.
"Why a biker?" Will looked at him with a judging look.
"Bikers are cool. They ride motorcycles and have cool jackets," Jay shrugged. "I just wanna be cool."
"My mom says bikers are bad," Will innocently pouted.
"I wanna be a doctor," Johnny sat upside down.
"I wanna be a professional ice skater," Ben joined in. "Our jobs are so different."
"Well we can be a team of something else, it doesn't have to be our jobs," Della thought. "Let's just be together until then!"
"Be together until then?" Johnny repeated, sitting back upright from dizziness.
"Yeah! Like Flynn and Rapunzel! They were a team-"
"But they were only two people. We have seven!" Jake managed out whilst in the midst of play fighting with Ricky. 
"Eight if we count Alice," Jay reminded.
"No, Della's right. We can be a team like Flynn and Rapunzel when we grow up," Ethan thought.
"If we're gonna be like the movie, can I be Maximus?" Johnny randomly responded.
"Oh and can I be the king?" Will joined in.
"I wanna be Flynn! Agh!" Ricky raised his hand before getting tackled by Jake.
"I wanna be Flynn!" Jake protested.
"I told you that anyone can be whatever they want! We don't have to be like Tangled!" Della pouted. Sometimes her friends are impossible.
"What about Transformers?" Ben asked about his favourite movie.
"Oh maybe like TMNT," Jay grinned.
"Well whatever the example is, I'm sure we can be a team when we grow up," Ethan smiled.
"You really think so, Ethan?" Della said with a soft voice and soft eyes. "Even with me as a girl?"
"Girls can do anything, Della. My mama and so many films show it!" Jake and Ricky started to calm down down their play-fight.
"You're the most important part of our team, Della. I promise," Ethan looked into her eyes with the same amount of softness, maybe even more.
"Ouch, E. Good to know that we're not that important."
Tumblr media
seoul, south korea — the YG building
"Like this-" the choreographer demonstrated a certain position to Della. "Ooh ooh, like that but- you gotta hold his arm so it'll be safe each time."
Kang Della's first single album will be released after just two years of Magnum's debut. As the most popular member of her group, the company agreed that a solo would be appropriate.
"We gotta keep you safe, superstar," the dancer she was holding, Jungwon, teased. "How else are you gonna break records?"
"Aish-" Della slapped his arm briefly before going back to her original position. 
"Actually, maybe it's best if you hold her, Jungwon-ah. I'm scared that she'll fall one day," the choreographer instructed. "So Della doesn't have to hold on to you but instead you... that's it."
"I'm not that clumsy, unnie," Della smiled but didn't protest. She knew that she was just looking out for her.
"Just in case, darling," the other dancers watched the three experiment with the song's bridge.
"You wished that was you, huh?" one of the female dancers whispered to Niki.
"No, I don't," he got really defensive. "She's a client."
"I mean... she's also our friend.." Niki didn't know what else to answer so he kept quiet. "Eyyy," she nudged his shoulder teasingly.
"No no, I'm seriously not jealous. I don't like her like that," he shook his hand.
"You would have to compete with the whole world anyway. Including your buddies," she looked at the five other male dancers.
"Nah, there's no competition, don't worry. I was just watching them."
❅◦❆◦❅◦❆◦❅◦❆◦❅◦❆
"Lucky Jungwon got to be paired with Della," Jake complained to his friends during their break.
"Aish- you got the whole world shipping you two," Sunghoon pointed at him. 
"At least you had that little moment during the fanmeeting," Jay also pointed at Sunghoon. "I was stuck with another member."
"Oh my God! Hyungs! At least you guys have something! All Heeseung-hyung, Niki and I have are group photos!" Sunoo protested. Those three always seem to be bickering.
"Isn't that a good thing? My DMs and comments are not filled with overprotective Della fans," Heeseung chuckled.
"You guys should be like me. Everyone makes shipping content of us even though we're never seen next to each other," Niki smirked.
"Lucky..." Jay muttered.
"I just want people to think that she's taken," Sunoo pouted. "Then people would stop hitting on her."
"Nothing could stop those guys and you know that," Jungwon wiped the sweat off his forehead. "They'll keep asking her out even with all kinds of rumours."
"You're right," "Mhmm," his friends all agreed.
"Where is Della anyway?" Jake asked.
"Should be here any minute n-"
"Sorry I took so long! A manager wanted to talk to me!" Della entered the room in a hurry. "Hello, my loves," she went over to place a kiss on their cheeks. "What were you all talking about?"
"How lucky some of us get to be seen with you," Niki crossed his arms. "And how other idols keep hitting on you."
"Again? Guys I turned them down already," she sat next to the youngest with furrowed eyebrows.
"No no- it's not really about that but more about how we wish we can just tell the world about us," Jake grabbed her hand for assurance. "We're not blaming you, darling."
"I really wish I could too," she sighed. "I love being an idol but sneaking around sucks real bad."
"Having seven boyfriends doesn't help too," Sunghoon lightly kicked Della's feet. His comment made everyone but Heeseung sigh.
"Heyy- I don't know if this helps but at least all of us being together makes it less suspicious! It's just like she's one of the boys!" the oldest tried to lighten the mood.
"Please use a different expression next time but you're right," Della scrunched up her face. "And since you guys are dancers, we get to be really clingy!"
It's true. Jake had the opportunity to be Della's love interest in a music video. Sunghoon got to be paired with her during a dance cover. Jay once made a cameo on Magnum's Youtube channel. Niki is one of the most popular members so they get shipped a lot, and now Jungwon gets to have a dance opportunity for her solo.
They're allowed to be seen together and it won't be too suspicious.
"Yeah, we're actually quite lucky, eh?" Jay smirked. "I love this relationship, y'all."
"Awww," they all teased, some of them even nudging and pushing him.
"CUTEE," Jungwon aggressively said.
"Cutee, "So cutee," "Awww aww awww," they teased him more.
"Ahh whatt?!" Jay turned around, embarrassed.
"Cute," Della smiled to herself, watching her boyfriends interacting.
"Della-ya," Niki whispered in her ear while everyone was distracted.
"Hmm?"
"Don't tell the others yet but I choreographed your other song," Della looked at him with wide eyes and a huge grin.
"No way! Congratulations!" he quickly shushed her. "Sorry sorry."
"There's gonna be a tiny moment with me. Nothing major like Jungwon-hyung's, but at least I get to hold you a little."

seoul, south korea — the hybe building
[let's pretend that all the guys are over 21 in this. there's nothing sexual but della is everyone's noona so it'll be inappropriate if she dates someone of their actual age]
"It's a bit..." Della's assistant hissed and tilted her head. "It's good now but it's missing something.."
"Is it the colour? Not enough red maybe?" Della agreed but couldn't detect the issue. The seven guys look good but they could look better.
"No no, I think Jake's pants are dark enough to match Jungwon's hair," the assistant pointed.
Della stayed silent for a few moments, trying to figure out what to alter, and it only hit her when Jay started subtly flexing his arms.
"Ahhh," a lightbulb went off. "Let's give Sunghoon a sleeveless outer," she gestured to Sunghoon.
"Sleeveless?" her assistant asked curiously.
"Jay is too revealing. We need to give someone else something sleeveless," Della explained. "We have that black vest, right? The leather one? I think we should give Sunghoon that."
"Is it here? Where is it?" she looked around for the said outer. "I think it's in the other room. I'll go get it."
"Oh, and can you please bring the black shorts too, unnie?! I wanna test it on Sunoo or Heeseung!" Della called after.
"Okay!" the remaining eight people watched the other stylist leave the room.
"I'm too revealing, huh?" Jay teased his secret girlfriend.
"The balance was off!" Della leaned against the closest boy, Jungwon. "You guys like the outfits though, right?"
It's been two years since Della worked at the company as a stylist and she was still lacking confidence in the outfits she builds. 
Enhypen has worked with middle-aged stylists for the longest time. She questions whether hiring a younger one was a good idea. 
"It's really cool, what're you talking about?!" Jungwon pushed her lightly. "The vibe fits the song well and we all look good!"
"It's really pretty!" "It's really cool!" "We look good!" the others complimented.
"It's just..." she stepped back again to look at the big picture. "Yeah, I think we need to change Sunghoon's jacket and Sunoo's pants..."
"Good. I was getting envious that Jay got to show off anyway," Sunghoon smirked while removing his jacket.
"Next time, I wanna show off my arms too," Niki told Della.
"Me too! But just wait a couple of months for me to prepare," Heeseung touched his bicep.
"Yah- tell that to your other stylist. I'm only responsible for comeback outfits," Della wrapped Sunghoon's previous outer around his waist.
"Can't you be our full-time stylist?" Sunoo pushed back her hair just as she put a belt on Jungwon.
"I would love to, darlings but I can't be seen when I'm only a few years older than you," she gave him a smile, now untucking Sunoo's shirt. 
"Shouldn't the world know that we have the hottest noona as our stylist?" Heeseung asked.
"Aishh- you guys flatter me too much," she stepped back to observe again. "I'm worried Jake and Sunoo look too plain.."
"Noo," they whined. "If everyone is too flashy then it'll be too much."
"Jay, give your gloves to Sunghoon please and please wear these, Wonie," she placed a pair of yellow gloves in Jungwon's hands.
"Hey- heyy," Jake put his hands on her tense shoulders. "Why are you stressing so much, babe?" his fingers moved to massage her. 
"I'm worried I might get replaced if I don't do a good job," she laughed nervously.
"You've been working with us for a few years now, they can't fire you that easily!" Sunoo looked at her in disbelief.
"Are they suspecting us?" Sunghoon asked.
"Mm," she simply replied, stroking Jake's hand around her waist now. The members panicked a little. "I don't know... I just found out today and they said they don't mind as long as I don't reveal it."
"Then what's the issue?" she leaned against Jake with a sigh.
"Pressure, really. It kinda feels like I have to work harder," the guys all let out an 'eyyy'.
"You're an amazing stylist, noona. You should look at the comments our fans post! They've been really loving our outfits since you were hired!" Jay rubbed Della's shoulder.
"How is a stylist able to work harder anyway?" Jungwon muttered. "If anything, we should work harder," everyone chuckled at his comment.
"Thank you, guys. Sorry about that- ACK!" she squealed when Jake nuzzled his face into her neck. "That tickles!" she tried to release herself from him.
"Don't go! Sorry, sorry!" Jake pulled her back and chose to nuzzle into her shoulder instead. "I'm pleasantly surprised that the company let it go that easily."
"We've been in the industry for years, of course they wo-" Niki cut himself off when the door opened and everyone immediately dispersed.
"Sorry it took so long. Here are the shorts and vest."

hanseong, korea — joseon period
"Father, may I go to the festival today? They're supposed to release the lanterns tonight," Princess Dahye asked the king.
"Tonight? Darling, your mother and I have got to attend a dinner remember?" his majesty replied with a frown. "We will be able to visit tomorrow, if you wish."
"I would love to go tomorrow, but I also really want to go tonight. The lanterns only happen tonight!"
Her father hissed and placed a hand under his chin, trying to figure a solution for his daughter.
"Your majesty, may I suggest?" his royal advisor spoke.
"You may."
"Perhaps the princess may come with Lady Ahyeong while the adults have dinner," Dahye immediately tensed up.
"That's a great idea," quick- think of something. "Daughter, what do you think?"
"It is indeed a great idea but unfortunately-" she took a deep breath. "Although Lady Ahyeong and I get along well, I am a bit uncomfortable with going out alongside someone I just met once."
"So do you have another suggestion?" a mischievous grin slowly grew on her face.
❅◦❆◦❅◦❆◦❅◦❆◦❅◦❆
"Mmm!" Dahye's eyes widened at how delicious the street food was. "This is absolutely divine! Jungwon-nim! Try this!"
The princess had convinced her father to let her off on her own- of course, with a few conditions that she proposed herself.
She would be disguised as a simple villager. Absolutely no riches and luxury will be seen on her. She would even go by the name of 'Dasom' to avoid suspicion.
She would also be assisted by a group of guards to completely ensure her safety.
And those guards are the ones who  always get assigned to her.
"Wahh, it's really soft," Jungwon told his friends.
"Ah really?" Sunoo raised his eyebrows with interest.
"Do you wanna try?" Dahye held up the food again.
"No no, it's yours," he shook his hand.
"Do you think we should move a little closer to everyone else?" Jongseong held a lantern on his hand. 
The group decided to sit on the grass a little further away from where the majority would raise their lantern.
"Here should be fine- give me that," Jaeyun reached for the lantern. "Usually people will write their wishes or the person they're in love with before letting go," he took out a small brush from his pocket.
"That's so cute! That's so romantic!" Dahye got even more excited.
"You wanna write your wishes?" Heeseung patted her head from behind.
"Something like that," she turned her head to look at him.
"Do you have ink though?" Jongseong asked Jaeyun.
"Should we use blood?" Sunoo giggled.
"Noo!" everyone else whined.
"Just use the sauce from the rice cakes!" Chulsoo referred to the stick on Dahye's hand.
"We don't have enough of it," Jungwon pointed.
"Let's buy more and ask for extra sauce," Heeseung proposed.
"Good idea. Sunghoon-nim!" Sunghoon's eyes widened when Dahye said his name. "Please get us two more rice cakes, my love," she handed him the coins while batting her eyelashes.
"Why do I have to do it?" he mumbled under his breath but did what was told anyway.
Once the guard returned, the seven boys watched as Dahye dipped the brush in the sauce before writing on the lantern.
"What do you plan on writing?" Jaeyun practically whispered, almost afraid to be asking.
"You'll see," she muttered.
The writings slowly got together and her 'plan' became apparent.
"Our names," Chulsoo breathed out.
"Do you think it looks okay?" Dahye finished with the last stroke before leaning back to look at it as a whole.
"It's perfect," the seven guards said in unison.
"We should light it up now," Jongseong pointed at the other lanterns, seeing how they were now all lit up.
Everyone all stood up, placing one hand on the lantern. Jongseong took the match included with it and lit the bottom up.
"Five, four, three, two, one!" they heard the crowd count down, releasing once they reach one.
They all silently watched at the beautiful floating lights that adorned the night sky.
"It's so beautiful," Dahye muttered, feeling arms wrap around her waist in a back hug.
"Nothing can compare to her highness' beauty," Jungwon whispered in her ear and placed a kiss on her shoulder.
Their love story will end in tragedy, they can all feel it. 
A relationship between a princess and a commoner itself was absurd, let alone a reverse harem with seven. Their romance was forbidden with absolutely no way around it.
Yet they let themselves hurt anyway, with pleasant moments like these to cherish and hold onto.
'Maybe we'll be together comfortably, in another life.'

❤️‍🔥Lady Lesso
Pairing: Lady Lesso x Fem Lector
Author's Note: I honestly feel like Leonora is a little thing in need of affection, who just plays hard to get.
Word count: 859
Tumblr media
~Master list~
One-shot
Wattpad
He who does not know his history is condemned to repeat it, but how can you know the history if it was erased from the mind of each person to forget that great tragedy. Many years ago there was a villain with enough power to put an end to good and evil and sincerely did not hesitate to do so.
Except that when she destroyed everything, there was no one, everyone had died because of what she did so she decided to remedy things by returning everything to normal and make each person forget about her existence, because although she was a villain she could not stand the idea of having ended all those lives, so many innocent people who were simply in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Opting to stay away from society so that you would never hurt anyone again.
You had been living all this time in a small cabin in the middle of the forest where you had the opportunity to connect with the earth and exist in perfect harmony.
The rumor about the destruction of good and evil had reached every person in this place so you had chosen to leave your retreat to investigate what had really happened. Thanks to your great power you managed to live all this time maintaining a youthful appearance, doomed to maintain stability between good and evil.
But you were surprised to realize that both schools had united, there was no more rivalry, they were in harmony with each other, so there was no reason for you to be there, you could return to your hut avoiding interactions with the rest of the world.
Unfortunately before you could leave you ran into a rather attractive, curly-haired red-haired woman with a dark aura about her.
-I'm not supposed to be in class,- says the woman with a touch of arrogance.
-I don't think so, besides I was on my way out, Reader,- walking past her, but being stopped by a strong grip on your wrist.
-Excuse me?- referring to the term you called her with.
-You're excused,- flashing a smirk.
The woman pulls you by the wrist and leads you around the academy to the dungeon, chaining you to a chair.
-I would enjoy this if it were in a different situation and you were the one chained to this chair,- you say with a sly smile.
-Who are you?
-The question is who are you Leonora?,- you say in a rather deep voice.
-How do you know my name?- you ask with annoyance.
-I know everything honey, and please don't play the bad guy with me,- sounding condescending, -because you have no idea who you're messing with,- seeing her take an axe.
-That's for me to decide,- standing behind you and putting the blade of the weapon on your neck.
Suddenly you disappear leaving the handcuffs on the chair and reappear behind Lesso with a knife on her neck.
-I warned you my dear,- sensing the woman's fear.
You take some distance letting her regain her composure.
-I am T/N/C better known as "The Mind Flayer"-seeing the surprise written all over her face.
-I thought I wasn't real, just a fairy tale to scare the ever
-You're wrong, I'm very real, but no one remembers anything about me,- walking around the place.
-Why?- she questioned confused.
-I made everyone forget, I killed innocent people because of my thirst for power,- passing your finger over the edge of a sword, -I just came to find out what happened here,- turning your attention back to the woman.
-Rafal,- she says as if that explains everything.-Of course,- you say sarcastically.
You run your hand along one of the walls and images of what happened in the place come to you.
-Even though I enjoyed our BDSM game I have to go and if anything happens again call me,- leaving behind a ring of a black sun, you say sarcastically.
There was something about her that you found charming, but you couldn't fall in love, love only makes you weak and you couldn't allow that.
- - - - -
You wake up suddenly when you hear someone calling your name, you turn to look around without finding anything, you hear your name again this time recognizing the voice. You find yourself in a vintage gothic style room but your attention goes straight to the woman writhing on the bed.
-Please Rafal," she pleads as she sobs.
It breaks your heart to see the woman in this state, she looks so small and vulnerable, as she is tormented in her dreams, hearing your name come from her lips brings you back to reality, pulling you closer to her.
-Shh...it's okay honey, you're safe,- running your hand through her hair, calming her mind with your power.
The woman starts to wake up, startled by your presence.
-What are you doing here?
-You called me,- you answer giving her a smile.
-I'm so sorry,- wiping her tears aggressively.
-You have to apologize,- not knowing what to do next.
You wanted to hold her in your arms and tell her that everything was going to be alright, that you were there to protect her from whatever.
-Well...I'm leaving,- leaving the woman alone before saying something you shouldn't have said.
-Stay,- she says to the nothingness, feeling alone again.

this flopped on reddit so i hope y'all like it more
So, hi. It's been a very long while since I've talked about my OC Vault Hunters here, and, well... things have changed. And I'm better at wording things.
Here's my... well, I wouldn't say propositions, more like full blown concepts for the entire BL4 VH team.
Basics
First thing: there's 8 classes, and not 4. The Watcher did say we'd need as many as we can get.
In my head, 6 of them are base-game, and the last two are DLC. Coincidentally, the last two are mechanically unusual classes compared to the rest of the team (and even to the rest of the Vault Hunters across games), and happen to essentially be multiple people in one playable character - to keep the gender balance, you see: the team already consisted of two dudes, two dudettes and two buddies before I realized I wanted to add more, so the last two are "multiples".
Second thing: I am a lore guy, so I know barely anything about game balance... but I do know some things about game design, and I do in fact have played these games (wow!), so I'd like to think I know what I want to see in these games... BUT I can't escape bias, and I love the way TPS skilltrees were designed, so if you don't like skilltrees encouraging you HEAVILY to use a very specific weapon type, this is probably not the post for you.
Third thing: This is going to be long, but I tried to make it as readable as possible.
Fourth thing: I will be using the BL3 multiple action skill/augment system here, since I like it a lot.
With that out of the way, let's actually get into it.
Lazarus as the Prodigy
Once an urchin scrambling for zir life in the alleyways, now adopted child and protege of the most notorious powercouple in the galaxy (Alistair Hammerlock and Wainwright Jakobs, if it wasn't obvious by zir Jakobs-style attire). Also, ze likes bugs.
Key Words: Sniper, "Soft" Melee, Non-Elemental, Bleed/Stun
Action Skill: Sheer Focus - essentially, an activated gun boosting ability similar to Fade Away, but instead of automatic criticals, it grants Laz the ability to focus shots for a duration. Focusing - or rather, charging - takes a bit of time, but when focused to the maximum, it can do insane damage. The catch is that the "Focus Bonus", even when charged to the max, will be divided by both the pellet count of the weapon and the burst-fire count if it has one, meaning you are heavily encouraged to use those good ol' semi-autos.
And let's not even talk about what happens when you use a fully automatic...
Gimmick: Swappable melee overrides. Each tree has one "starter" override, and additional ones are unlocked the further you go down the tree.
Sheer Focus has a long cooldown and pretty much just exists to boost damage - the overrides are where the real utility is, and are usually available more often. It's sort of like a secondary action skill that you don't really sacrifice a button for.
Do you want to reflect enemy fire with a single stroke of a rapier? Do you want to throw gunpowder in their face and watch them explode when you shoot them? Or maybe take out a banjo and smack them on the head? Lazarus can do all of that.
Additionally, Laz has two other somewhat unique things that aren't unique to specific skill trees:
something called Deadeye Skills, which trigger on crit (or crit-kill, if it's a Deadeye Kill Skill) and are grouped up in a manner similar to Fl4k's Hunter Skills.
great usage of bleed and stun status. Bleed is the same as it was in TPS, a non-elemental damage over time effect. Stun disables the enemy, preventing them from moving or attacking - for obvious reasons, badasses and bosses cannot be stunned and will simply take a bit more damage if they would be stunned by an attack.
Skill Trees: You're in luck here, because I actually made a full detailed skill tree for the Prodigy already. Read it here if you like walls of text.
If you don't, here's a summary:
Green Tree: Legacy - Critical hits. Loads of Deadeye Skills. Major bonuses to Sheer Focus. Not much to say here.
Red Tree: Tradition - Gun damage, heavily favoring non-elemental weapons. Get those FAT one-shots, as the slogan says.
Blue Tree: The New Path - Melee focus. Staying on the move, weaving melee strikes between gunshots, and the bleed/stun status effects I mentioned above. Maybe it's not fair, but who really cares when you can make your enemies into but a fine red mist.
Bartholomew as the Butler
An old model of Jakobs brand butlerbot, deactivated many years ago and only recently turned back on by an unknown variable. Took up vault hunting as a means of... venting his frustrations, so to speak.
Key Words: Berserker, "Hard" Melee, Support, Health Management
Gimmick: Everyone else has a skill-related gimmick, so Bartholomew's gimmick is not having one. Let me know if you can think of one for him.
Action Skills:
Gearshift - fully heals the player and reloads all weapons. Grants a movement and weapon swap speed buff for a short time afterwards
All Out Attack - a large dash with a punch at the end. Has multiple charges. Can be cast multiple times on the same enemy or chained to others.
Overclock - large damage and fire rate buff at the cost of constantly taking damage.
Skill Trees:
Green Tree: Servitude (Gearshift) - A very strange twist on a support tree. Servitude has an entire swathe of team support skills, all of which activate on (mostly) controllable actions such as reloading a gun or reviving an ally. The thing is, upon these buffs activating, Bart takes health damage.
Red Tree: Rage (All Out Attack) - Melee damage, with a focus on increasing melee speed, taking/healing/ignoring damage, not having a shield and mashing that V button into oblivion.
Blue Tree: Restraint (Overclock) - Remember Nisha's Order? This is basically that, to 11. Upon losing a percentage of health, Bartholomew will gain a Restraint stack. Stacks give a variety of buffs, and can even be spent for certain triggered abilities.
Scylla as the Siren
A member of Junpai-7's pirate royalty, disgraced from her home when she became a Phasesight siren. For many decades, she's been wandering the galaxy as a hermit wizard of sorts, and now in her old age she returns to find the Vault, in hopes of preventing some sort of war that she foresaw.
Key Words: Siren, Shock Damage, Crowd Control, Mobility~~, Discount Spellshot~~
Gimmick: Can equip two action skills at once at the cost of sacrificing her grenade slot. Unlike Zane, she has no real way to use grenades, because who needs them when you can electrocute your enemies to death with your bare hands?
Her skill trees also contain (sometimes radically different) variants of the tree's main skill just like Amara, so you can really customize your setup.
Action Skills:
Phasemancy - mind controls an enemy, making them fight for you for a reasonably long duration. Also makes them invincible, though they die instantly when the effect ends. Badasses and bosses can't be mancied, for obvious reasons.
Phasestasis - spawns a large dimensional field, slowing down everything in its radius for a medium duration and causing shock status. Can be re-cast in a different place as long as it's active, but you can't spam-move it.
Phasebolt - a simple shock damage projectile that is precise and deals high damage. Multiple charges.
Skill Trees:
Green Tree: Clairvoyance (Phasemancy) - Mind and some battlefield control, with a bit of sniping for brainy flavor - but rather than using sniping for damage, you'll be using it for utility. Tons of status effect bonuses. Stealing enemy shields and staying ahead of the battle's speed by manipulating it.
Red Tree: Storm Terror (Phasestasis) - Mobility, with a little twist. Rewards not just moving fast, but also staying airborne, jumping, sliding and whatnot. Double jump. Sprinting and shooting. Amp shots for free.
Blue Tree: Wizardry (Phasebolt) - Action skill damage spam, and rewards for doing so. The main deal of this tree is Flow stacks, gained upon using action skills. At base, they don't do much aside from bonus Shock damage - the deal is, you can spend them for other things. Electromagnetic flight, ignoring FFYL and various techniques too strong for those not versed in the arcane arts.
Samuel as the ~~Problem~~ Primordial
Before the incident, he was just a normal Tediore employee working in R&D. Now, he is a vessel of the Vault Monster Uyrru, a locust-like ancient horror. He seeks the Vault both for his "other self", and to figure out what the f/ck is going on.
Key Words: Wildcard, Radiation Damage & Status, Survivability/DR, Ammo Economy, Armor
Gimmick: In a manner similar to Moze, Sam has only one Action Skill, which at base does almost nothing aside from disabling all means of attack. But when you equip Mutations onto it, that's when it gets interesting.
Action Skills: Transform - turns Samuel into his Vault Monster-ish form. As said above, at base it only gives some damage reduction. But when considering Mutations, one can turn Samuel into a:
pestilent master of disease, spawning hordes of bugs from his body.
miniature black hole, hovering over the battlefield and emitting huge waves of radiation.
feral creature, slashing at the enemy with humongous claws.
variety of other things.
Transform does have augments too, but they are not specific to a certain Mutation.
Skill Trees: I have a full skill tree for him as well... but it's still a heavy work in progress, so I won't be sharing it here just yet. Here's the summary:
Green Tree: Resourcefulness - Ammo/grenade stuff. Unlike Moze's tree, this one actually somewhat encourages reloading. Instead of gaining ammo in your mag, Samuel simply picks up more ammo from pickups or even gains back a bit of a weapon's mag when he reloads. Sometimes you need to make most of what you get instead of summoning it out of thin air.
Red Tree: Eldritch Potential - Radiation damage and utility tree, with a bit of splash. Curiously enough it encourages Samuel to get statused, and keep rad status on enemies. Power at a price. But you do get immunity to Radiation!
Blue Tree: Perseverance - Survivability tree. Not that special, aside from the fact it tends to give DR instead of the usual health/shield capacity like most survivability trees. Tends to be more effective the closer to death you are. Also, allows you to gain armor, because it'd be funny to have a VH with three health bars.
Val as the Fanatic
Former member of the CoV, Valor was given the role of Saint of Sparks and Honor. Even after the Calypsos fell, they try to find spiritual guidance and enlightenment in the Vaults. Half blind, has taken a vow of silence and speaks through a floating drone which follows nearby and relays messages through neural uplink.
Key Words: Splash Damage, Support, Healing~~, BIG DAMAGE ALL THE TIME FOREVER~~
Gimmick: Has the option to equip two grenades at once, which synergizes extremely well with their skills, as many of them activate on grenade thrown.
Action Skills:
Battle Prayer - somewhat minor team gun stat buff, but lingers for a reasonably long time.
Dodge Roll - exactly what it sounds like, gives i-frames. Does not trigger "action skill start" effects, not that Val has any of those in their skill tree.
Deep Pockets - forsakes an Action Skill entirely for the ability to equip two grenade mods.
Skill Trees:
Green Tree: Spirit (Battle Prayer) - A variety of team-wide support skills that reward the team for actually sticking together and helping one another. Buffs Val themselves too, of course. Has a few health restoring abilities as well.
Red Tree: Faith (Dodge Roll) - Insane fire rate! Mag sizes that would make Moze weep! Melee damage! All for the low low price of your enemies' lives and all of your accuracy! Vault-Gods, take the wheel!
Blue Tree: Piety (Deep Pockets) - Splash damage, especially grenades. Mostly focused on radius and spamming rather than the splash damage itself being big. Insert Holy Hand Grenade reference here.
Alkimia as the Trooper
A mysterious, brooding woman who defected from an elite, secretive cyborg division of the Maliwan army upon being ordered to kill civillians. Is a poet-philosopher with an unusually calm demeanor for her line of work.
Key Words: Corporate Soldier, Elemental Damage, Status Effects and Interactions, Versatility, Gadgets/Utility, Mild RNG
Gimmick: May swap the element of her Action Skill, similar to Amara. Defaults to Corrosive, but can be changed to Cryo or Incendiary with enough skill point investment.
Action Skills:
Asclepios - a hovering drone shaped a bit like a snake which flies at enemies and attacks them with its elemental beam.
Reaction Globule - Alkimia throws a big ball of elemental sludge that bounces around and deals damage.
Traversal - dashes/teleports Alkimia forward like a Maliwan Flash trooper, dealing action skill damage to anything in her path. May ragdoll weaker enemies at the endpoint.
Skill Trees: I am also working on Alkimia's skill tree. Trying to figure out something really neat. Here's what I got so far.
Green Tree: Catalyst (Asclepios) - Elemental damage and status effects, with a small twist. Instead of just applying status, you want to combine status effects and react them with one another. Burn them with corrosive damage, electrolyze their skin, or abuse the laws of thermodynamics to combine Cryo and Incendiary.
Red Tree: Evolution (Reaction Globule) - General damage, with some Claptrap-esque randomness. The joke is that evolution is an organism trying to gain advantage in an unfavorable environment, and in this case the organism is the player. You better own a variety of guns. That's the price of experimental tech.
Blue Tree: Adaptability (Traversal) - Utility and some survivability (mostly elemental focused). Almost all of the passive bonuses in this tree change either with Alkimia's Action Skill Element, or with the conditions present on the battlefield.
Kat & Dawg as the Partners in Crime
A one-for-two Vault Hunter deal, Katherine and her tink wife Desmond have been sharpening their teeth (and blades) on heists big and small for ages, with Kat being the brawn and Dawg the mastermind of their operation. However, when they caught wind of the Vault, they immediately embarked on their biggest heist ever, the one that might just set them up for life.
Key Words: Pet Class, Inventory Management, Incendiary Damage, Stuns, Mild RNG
Gimmick: As said above, these two are a package deal, do not separate. While the player controls Kat, Dawg just piggybacks on top of her, occasionally commenting on combat or story beats.
The real deal is when these two enter combat. Kat may deploy Dawg with the action skill button, and the latter will stay deployed until she dies or is picked up. If she dies, she respawns back on Kat's back ready to be deployed again, somewhat similar to Fl4k's pets.
While Dawg is on the field, Kat can use her own action skill. (If Dawg dies, she can't, until Dawg is redeployed anew!) She has three, just like most others, but which one she equips also determines what kind of weapon Dawg will be wielding in combat.
Action Skills:
Trust Throw - summons Dawg back to Kat, then she immediately throws her back into the battlefield with a damage boost for a short time. Enemies hit ~~by THE TINK CANNONBALL~~ are stunned. Also heals Dawg back to full, because.... the power of love, or something.
Whirl 'Em - Kat gets out her trusty scrap-axe and spins it in a manner similar to the Brrzerker from Wonderlands, but with incendiary damage instead.
Mystery Bag - Kat takes out Dawg and her's bag of loot, and checks it for anything useful. The pool of what she can find is around 20ish different items with various small beneficial effects: free grenades that are thrown immediately, health hypos or even ancient Eridian doohickeys.
Skill Trees:
Green Tree: Battle Bond - Buffs the living daylights out of Dawg, and makes it more rewarding + easier to coordinate your movements with her. Pretend you're playing co-op in solo!
Red Tree: Destruction of Property - General damage, mostly in incendiary form. Rewards hard hitting weapons and attacks, maybe with a melee strike in there or two. A few kill skills for good measure.
Blue Tree: Larceny - Damage buffs and other benefits... dependent on picking up loot, eridium and cash. Gives a new meaning to the word "shloot". Additionally, a few "underhanded tactics" such as lowering vendor prices and increasing backpack space (to fuel a damage buff scaling off the fullness of your backpack). Think Timothy's Free Enterprise, but even weirder.
The Triad
Actually a trinity of Guardians inhabiting a nanobot swarm body, a corporate experiment at controlling these ancient constructs gone wrong. It tries its best to get along, and find itself in this strange world.
Key Words: Stances, Jack-of-All-Trades
Gimmick: In lieu of an action skill, the Triad switches between its three constituents - Supplicant (highly loyal to the Eridians, to the point of fanaticism), Seeker (neutral, but also the most sapient) and Sorcerer (Vault Monster cultist, corrupted by their influence eons ago) - in a way similar to stances in other games.
The switch itself does nothing, unless a certain skill is specced into that provides a short burst of beneficial effect when it occurs. However, a lot of the Triad's skills have different effects, elements or drawbacks depending on its current stance.
Action Skills: Spirit Switch - see above for details.
Skill Trees:
Green Tree: Supplicant - Focuses on team support, usually at the cost of damage. Can still reliably solo, however, thanks to having crowd control options.
Red Tree: Sorcerer - Focuses on pure damage, usually at the cost of survivability. Has elements of health management, as no price is too great for dark power.
Blue Tree: Seeker - Focuses on survivability and utility. Fairly scrappy, can manage ammo and identify enemy weaknesses.
Closing Words
I hope you all enjoyed this little creation of mine. I'm not... really sure what else to say here besides I love this series, and I love making things for it even more.
If you're curious what these Vault Hunters might look like, I drew all of them a while back.
Thank you for reading, and if you have any feedback regarding these concepts, or maybe your own fanmade Vault Hunters, feel free to comment.

Complicated, I Guess
Fandom: Stranger Things Summary: Robin's always going to be there for her soulmate, no matter what their discussion is about or reveals. Warnings: Period typical homophobia/transphobia and mentions of being broken because of asexuality/aromanticism Word Count: 807 Ship(s): Robin Buckley & Steve Harrington
Archive link!
A/N: Am I projecting all of my identity onto Steve because he's my favorite character? Absolutely! I hope that you all enjoy this and please don't take anything here said as gospel because everything that Steve talks about concerning his gender/sexuality is just what I've been speculating about. Stay sissy and bitchy everyone <3
“I don’t know if I’ve ever really been in love.”
Evie was laying on the bed with her arm draped dramatically over her eyes. She was wearing one of Robin’s skirts, the flowy navy one with white spots but still in her own yellow polo because she felt that those were more comfortable. Her hair was hanging loose and unstyled around her face, one singular braid still in tact from their earlier activities. The other girl suspected that the only reason for that was because the strands were so close to Evie’s hearing aide, where she was used to feeling pressure and rubbing so didn’t pay attention to the sensations there.
Robin pulled herself up from the ground and flopped down onto the single bed, folding her arms underneath her so that they were supporting her face. “You really expect me to believe that?” she asked with a little giggle.
“Why wouldn’t you?” Evie pouted.
“Evie Harrington, sex master extraordinaire and Queen of High school, who had more girlfriends than anyone could count and even a couple of secret boyfriends, has never been in love? It’s a tough pill for anyone to swallow,” Robin replied. She made sure to replace the parts of the title that didn’t fit with her friend’s current gender. 
The last time that they had been like this, tucked away in the privacy of Robin’s room to escape the Indiana summer heat, Evie had explained that she didn’t always feel like as much of a boy as she was supposed to. That had resulted in them asking each other a lot of questions, stealing away to ask Joyce (who seemed to know a little bit about everything), and then figuring things out. It had been a slow process what with all of the Upside Down nonsense that had interrupted them before and after the Byers moved away. They had figured out that Evie felt like a boy sometimes, which was when Robin would call her by the name and pronouns that she had gone by her entire life, but sometimes she felt like a girl. Those days were harder and it resulted in Robin having to avoid the topic of her Platonic soulmate entirely to avoid misgendering Evie.
“I don’t know if that was actual love or if I was just making it up because people were telling me that I was in love,” Evie replied as she turned her head so that she could look at her best friend a little bit easier.
“Like… convinced yourself to feel feelings that didn’t exist?” Robin asked. She had tried to do that with a couple of guys when she was younger, around the time when everyone else in her middle school class claimed to be developing crushes.
“Yeah. But sometimes the feelings would be so real that I convinced myself they had been there the entire time. After a while they would fade and I thought it was just the relationship fizzling out but I was thinking the other day and I don’t know if I ever had feelings for anyone before I found out that they liked me. It’s almost as if every time I learned that someone had a crush on me, I was so used to thinking that I had to reciprocate that kind of thing that I just… made myself develop feelings for them,” Evie explained all in a rush. “I never wanted to have sex with them either, I just did it because I thought that’s what I was supposed to do.”
Robin blinked a few times as she processed all of that information. “You never wanted to date or have sex with any of the people that you got with? Even Nancy?”
The other girl shook her head. “I desperately wanted to be friends with Nancy. Like, she was so cool and perfect and pretty. I wanted to look like her and be like her. And I think I kind of told myself that was a crush. Which is why our relationship ended so badly and would have even without all of the Upside Down stuff,” Evie explained. 
The room went quiet for a while as they both lay on the bed, thinking about everything that had been placed into the open air. Evie sniffled and asked, “Does… does that make me broken?”
Robin immediately shook her head. “No. Even if you are broken, I’m also broken for liking girls when I should be liking guys. So we can be broken together, okay?”
She moved her hand down so that her fingers were interwoven with Evie’s. It was an affectionate move that they had gotten more and more comfortable doing as time passed and their boundaries decreased around each other. They cuddled up on Robin’s bed, hidden away in a place where they could be broken and different.

I’ll be waiting for your commentaries on Doyoung youth documentary! I think you’re really gonna like a lot of the contents during this promotional era. Thankful that promotion nowadays are not just about going to variety shows. Thanks to social media, we got to see him appear to talk shows and see him talks more. We’re seeing more of Doyoung who is not part of NCT. His thought process, his interaction with people outside of his circle or out of his field. I can see he’s a lot more confident too. He really says ‘This is who I really am’ through this era (album-wise and personality-wise). Despite being ambitious he’s also aware that this album will not appeal to all due to people’s preference. But most important thing to him, he’s satisfied with it. I learnt a lot from him through this album. Once again, you’re really gonna enjoy it!!
*sobs* Yeah, only in June. I'm in a new country, and the prices for mobile internet are insane here. Plus there are complications with buying a package in the first place giving my location and lack of a credit card. I have to severely safe on data. Unlimited is not even an option.
I see that Doyoung goes on a lot of programmes where he can sing live. It's really great he has the opportunity to do now what he had been longing for for so long (remember how he complained about his parts in NCT songs? "I will do what I have to do"). All his patience and perseverance is paying off.
I think, it is extremely hard to wait for postponed gratification (when an idol starts to invest blood and tears since day one of a trainee life), to see other, younger people, making it or doing what you want to do (like freshly debuted groups achieving more awards than NCT), add to it the loom of enlistment over male idols. Fortunately, in comparison to poor Taeil, and even Taeyong to a degree, Doyoung lucked out with the debut time window. I'm really happy for him and for his fans.
I also suppose that he got a full album because he found those additional 3 songs himself (one he wrote, one from Lucy's guy, maybe Kenzie's or the one with Mark can be counted as the 3d). As it is less about money, and more about finding enough of good songs that can go together. The songs were collected over a long time as well (Tae had less than a year after Shalala).
I said before that I don't find idol Jaehyun interesting, he is bland to me. (His real self I'm sure I will like, what's with the love for arts, old things and jazz). Doyoung is a different case, but mostly because I invest in knowing him and see past his fake facade of a cute trembling bunny. The real Doyoung is tenfold more charming than his idol image that he developed over the years in apprehension of antis and not his NCT fans. After his shift in image (from savage) there always was a difference between what he allowed to show being in a group setting with other 127 members versus his communication with his own fans. With his fans he was more honest (Doyoung/Dongyoung divide, fake boyfriend pictures, etc). And as a soloist he is even more sincere. I'm looking forward to seeing him open up in those interviews (he will never be not self-censored, but still).
I thought yesterday about Doyoung's words about standing out. To me, he is a more unusual and rare individual than even Taeyong. I guess "tortured artist" is a well-explored personality, heh. There are many of them in the industry. Meanwhile a "tribal chief" could be more often found behind the scenes, not on the pop-stage. And if they exist, they are not "seen". The idol culture exposes artists, shows them from many sides, it is very different from how pop-scene is elsewhere.
Real Doyoung gives off a lot of energy. Active positive energy. Many idols are a subject of desire (sex appeal), adoration (cuteness) or empathy ("mistreatment"), not many are "class presidents" (Hanbin seems to be one, btw), those who push you.
I'm sorry, I'm rambling, but Do's chant guide cracked me up. It heavily reminded me how he persuaded his class to participate in a choir competetion and led them to win it.
Doyoung: "Repeat after me. You all emit light, you are all fireflies and stars, you are all kind and meant for great things. You are my support, I'm your support. If I can do it, you can do it. Do like me, do better than me. Sing with me."

Gif made by me!
Expect mistakes, happy reading!
You never really believed in love, since you were young you could see it didn’t really exist. First your parents, they were always fighting for reasons you couldn’t understand at the time. Then your older brother got a girlfriend in high school who broke his heart. Then you entered high school yourself, and your best friend developed a crush on a dumb guy who wouldn’t even look at her unless it was for his own benefit. She ended with her heart broken too.
That’s why you decided to close your heart to everyone. It worked well through your high school years, you went out on dates with people but you always made sure to not fall in love with them, you never gave your heart to anyone.
Until she came around.
You moved away to start college and when you were moving some boxes inside your house, she came out of her house across the street to help you. Just one look at her eyes and you knew you were doomed. On the first day of classes, she helped you around too, saying “I would have liked that someone helped me on my first day here.”
You found out she was already in a relationship with someone so you didn’t try anything with her. But she kept on looking for you and you didn’t want to admit it, but you were falling, falling hard, then you would remember she already had someone and buried your feelings and avoid her the most you could.
A few weeks later she told you her relationship was over and started flirting with you more and more. Your brain was telling you to not do anything but your heart said otherwise, so when she asked you on a date you decided to follow your heart and accepted. After that you continue going out frequently, she was always at your house even when you were busy with projects you had to do and she would look at you in the most loving way someone could.
One day you were at your desk studying for some test you had the next day when you heard someone knocking at your door. You stood up from your chair confused, when you opened the door you saw Sooyoung carrying bags full of food “I brought food” she said waiting for you to let her in, which you did after a few seconds “You said you had a really important test tomorrow and you probably forgot to cook and you know how important it is to eat” She walked up to your kitchen counter and let the bags there “So I went to that restaurant you said you liked and bought something for us to eat together” She had a bright smile on her face and you couldn’t resist the urge to kiss her. She gladly kissed you back and wrapped her arms around your waist to pull you closer. “Would you be my girlfriend now?” she asked after the kiss was over, you chuckled and nodded your head, then she kissed you again.
You met Sooyoung’s friends the next week when she invited you to eat with them at a restaurant near campus. You were nervous to meet them and you made that very clear when you said “Don’t you dare leave me alone with them.” Which your girlfriend answer with an “I’ll never leave you alone, I promise”
“So… you are Yves girlfriend?” Jinsoul asked after you arrived at the place
You looked at Sooyoung confused mouthing Yves? she just shrugged her shoulders before putting her arm around your shoulders and answering her friend’s question “Yes, she is. Isn’t she gorgeous?” You blushed at her comment and turn to look away from the group, you didn’t notice the exchange of looks between her other two friends, Haseul and Vivi.
Before your food arrived Sooyoung, you were going to start calling her Yves, stood up and said she was going to the bathroom. Leaving you alone with her friends, even after you send her a panic look.
“Do you like music, Y/N?” Haseul asked after she left, you nodded nervously “I don’t want this to sound weird or anything, but do you happen to write songs?”
You nodded again “Sometimes when is hard for me to express my feelings”
“Your major has something to do with music?” Vivi asked
You shook your head “Not really. I wanted to, but my parents didn’t like the idea. It was like, the first time they agreed on something” you shrugged your shoulders
Jinsoul whisper something to the other girls at the table, you could understand the word type, which they answered by nodding their heads. It made you feel uncomfortable and out of habit you started playing with the rings on your fingers, Vivi seemed to notice but before she could say something Yves arrived and sat next to you with a smile “What were you talking about?”
“Nothing interesting” Vivi started “Just music” It seems that sentence had a deeper meaning you didn’t know about because Yves's smile quickly faded away “Oh, cool” you could feel the tension in the air but you didn’t say anything about it. You were really glad the food arrived just a few seconds later
After that awkward encounter, you found yourself with your girlfriend and her friends more and more. They apologized for making you uncomfortable the first time you met and even invited you to a more expensive restaurant to make it up to you, you declined at first but they insisted until you accepted. Haseul paid for everything and even though you should’ve guessed, you were shocked after finding out she was wealthy.
Your relationship with Yves was great, that’s what you wanted to think. She was at your house a lot to have movie nights on your couch. She would walk with you to class and wait for you if she had free time. She would send you a "good morning, babe. I’m waiting for you outside" every morning and a "good night, sweet dreams" every night.
There were also times she would forget dates you had planned, saying “I’m sorry I've been really busy, I promise I’ll make it up to you”. You understood, you were busy too. The problem was that her way of apologizing was always the same. She would knock at your door with a bucket of flowers and a teddy bear make an excuse with that look and kiss you until you forgot what had happened. You had to admit that the first few times you found it romantic, but your collection of teddy bears grew almost every week. It was stupid to be mad about that, you told yourself, so you acted like it didn’t matter.
Now you were leaving your last lecture of the day, you thought she was going to wait for you in the hall, but when you didn’t see her there you took your phone out to text her. It was not necessary, because before you could even search her contact, she was beside you. “Hey babe,” she said kissing your cheek. “Sorry I’m late, Haseul asked me for something.”
You smiled at her “Don’t worry” you started walking to the exit, and after a few steps you notice she was not following you. You turned to around to look at her, but she was distracted looking in another direction. You followed her eyes and found she was making eye contact with another girl, she had the same look when you met. Did you feel bad? Yes. Were you going to cry about it? Probably. Were you going to cry in front of her? No, definitely not. So you went straight to your house without her, texting some shitty excuse about meeting up with your brother and that you were calling her later.
That night you cried for hours, was she getting bored of you already? She seemed to do that a lot according to some people in your class. But those were just rumors and you were not one to believe them easily. Were they just rumors though? you shook your head at the sudden thought, she probably just zoned out and the girl was on the way. You try to believe your own thoughts, but deep down you knew they were not true.
The next days you were acting distant, she notice she had done something and did everything to fix it. You used to sing some songs you had written just for her, now she did the same thing. She sat on your bed singing a song for you, it was good, and hearing her sing made your heart flutter, even when your brain told you she had probably sung that song to everyone she has dated.
With the end of the semester coming up you were really busy and stopped hanging out with Yves’ friends. She was busier too and whenever you were together, she would get a phone call and leave telling you she had to do some project with her classmates. You didn’t question anything until you heard someone talking about how they had seen your girlfriend a little too close with someone else. You notice the way she looked at you changed, but when you tried to talk to her about it, she would look at you with that look (again) in her brown eyes, and your doubting faded away. You were blinded by the love you had for her, but you were scared of saying it.
You were packing your things when one of your few friends on campus approached you. “So this girl invited my best friend to a party” You met Jungeun (she liked Kim Lip better) on a rainy day, you had to stay longer in the cafeteria waiting for the rain to stop and she was there too. You made small conversation and found out you shared some classes, after that you started talking more and became friends. “They are like dating or something, I don’t really understand, but I don’t want to third wheel. Would you like to come and save me the awkward time?”
You looked at her “I don’t know, Lip. I’m really tired”
“Come on! It’ll distract you. And classes are almost over, we should celebrate” She said
“Ok, just text me the address and I’ll meet you there” She cheered at your comment.
After changing you arrived at the address she send you, it was not that far from your house so instead of using your car you went walking. You looked around at the people who were talking outside before knocking. You were surprised to find Jinsoul behind the door when she opened it. She seemed surprised too “Y/N? What are you doing here?”
“A friend invited me,” You explained, “Is something wrong?”
She shook her head “No, no. I just don’t want you to feel uncomfortable after everything”
You were confused, you had already sorted things out a long time ago and you considered you were close friends “We already talked about it, it’s fine”
“Really? Well come in then” She opened the door more revealing a lot of people, some were dancing others just talking with their friends “Do you want me to help you find your friend?” You declined her offer telling her you could find her while she had fun “Ok, the kitchen is right there” she pointed to the kitchen “And if you want to use the bathroom, is near the stairs, if someone is inside you can go to the one upstairs.” After you thanked her, she left you to find Kim Lip.
You found her sitting on a couch with a drink in her hand. “Hey! I’m glad you came” was the first thing she said when she saw you “My friend and the girl are dancing and I didn’t know what to do” she pointed at where her friend was and you looked that way.
You wished you hadn’t. Because even though you couldn’t see Kim Lip’s friend’s face, you could clearly see Yves's face. Your heart now had another opening, but when you saw them both leaning in it broke completely. You stood there looking at the scene with tears gathering, then you and Yves made eye contact and you turned around and started walking to the door “Y/N!” you could hear two different voices calling your name but you didn’t turn and started walking even faster around all the people.
You ran until you arrived at your house, after closing the door you let the tears slip from your eyes. Now you understood what Jinsoul was talking about. After you stopped hanging out with them and with Yves talking with Kim Lip’s friend, they probably thought you had broken up. Some minutes after you heard a knock at your door “Y/N?” you didn’t answer so she knocked again “Y/N, can we talk?”
You sniffed before saying “I don’t want to talk to you”
“Just let me explain” You didn’t open the door. After some time you heard her leaving and you sighed, still crying.
You only left your house to go to the last week of class, always doing your best to avoid her (you told yourself not to mention her name). Which resulted easier said than done, since she lived just across from you. You left your house an hour earlier so you didn’t encounter her and after your last class of the day, you walked straight out looking at the ground so no one could see your face.
You were glad when classes ended, you didn’t have to go out and risk seeing her, but not even three days lasted before you had to leave to buy food. After some time thinking about it you decided you were not going to go out to the store in your pajamas, so you change into your usual clothes and put on some makeup to hide how bad you looked at the moment.
Luck was not on your side that day because when you arrived at the place she was just leaving. Great, just great. She stopped in front of you, blocking the entrance “Can we talk?”
“There’s nothing to talk about,” you said trying to get past but she just moved again
“You know there is”
“Well, I’m not going to stay here and hear your stupid excuses, you know what you did”
“But-” before she could say something you interrupted her
“I know you get bored easily, but don’t do the same thing to her. If you found someone else let her know, yeah?.” you were surprised at how calm you sounded “And please, don’t do that stupid thing with your eyes you do to make her forget everything unless you mean it.”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about” she denied
You rolled your eyes “Just don’t make her feel like she’s on top of the world when you are looking at someone else. Nice talk, now can you let me in?” She didn’t know what to say so she just moved out of the way. After you entered the door and made sure she was not outside you sighed and stood there for a moment before composing yourself and started looking for what you needed.
It was late at night and you were laying on your couch watching a movie when someone rang your doorbell, which you didn’t know you had, by the way, you stood up pausing what was playing on the tv. When you opened the door, you were met with a girl with bangs looking at you with red puffy eyes. “Hi?”
“I’m so sorry,” was the first thing she said “I didn’t know she had a girlfriend, she told me she was not seeing anyone at the moment and invited me to her friend’s party and then she kissed me and then run out of there. I was confused, but yesterday Lip said she found out why she did that and I felt really bad. Don’t worry, I already talked to her and broke what we had going on. I’m really sorry.” By the time she ended her rambling, she had tears running out of her eyes again.
“Wow, you had strong lungs” she chuckled sniffing “I’m sorry, I couldn’t understand much of what you said. What’s your name?” she answered you in a low voice “Chuu, do you want to come in?” she nodded and you let her in. “Now what were you saying about Lip?”
She started saying everything she had said but slower, you counted 10 sorry in all her speech “I’m really sorry” 11 now.
“It’s not really your fault, you didn’t know” you wiped the tears that were still running down her cheeks “Now, stop crying about it. You are too pretty for that” you smiled at her.
She smiled back “Thanks,” she said before looking at her watch “I should go now”
“Would you like me to take you home, is kind of late”
“I wouldn’t like to be a bother” she declined both of your offers
“You are not, do you leave with Lip?” she nodded “Let’s go then,” you said taking your car keys with you. Maybe love was not good, but you were not going to deny a friendship you could get out of it.

haiiiii :3 akane anon again. im off work now!
i agree w absolutely everything u said. she's been my fav ever for years and i have so many in depth thoughts abt how she could function on relationships w like. most of the girls. i could probably make a chart if i figured out a format.
chiakane soooo crazy. never been my main ship but ill consider anything. they r most interesting from a doomed standpoint to me...... akane as a remnant vs chiaki's existence as ai and (counting dr3 as canon which im not usually interested in doing) death before the tragedy. i think of them in almost a similar vein to the tragedy between madoka and homura except if homura was replaced by a kyoko who's a little worse w emotions. chiaki's entire being has become dedicated in one way or another to serving class 77 even if that means sacrificing herself over and over and akane has had every single meaningful relationship (or what SHOULD have been) ripped away or twisted and never having even really existed and she is so afraid of going through this again she doesn't even try and have relationships she cares about deeply (or at all!) that aren't w her siblings. so she would be PISSED to fall in love w chiaki who is already dead and doomed to die again. ive never believed the mastermind akane theory people talk abt at least fully but it IS interesting. i can make a killer chiakane au w it. w madoka magica parallels even. but ur right they can also be very very sweet. i think they would play super smash bros and akane would kinda suck at it (spams the buttons and thinks it's a pro strategy) but chiaki would let her win every once or twice. akane hears the rumours abt chiaki dating some random reserve course guy and sends the "im so happy for you and your ugly fucking boyfriend I'm serious" text after swearing to herself she doesn't even gaf
that's uh. that's a lot. im so sorry can you tell i have autism. this isn't even my favourite ship for either of them ask me about pekokane and i start growling like a rabid dog.
YES yes yes yes!! I am a HUGE Akane fan. She's the only character I have a real little collection of merch for (though that's partly just because so much merch excludes Mukuro). I didn't really attach to her the first time I played SDR2 but over time I've grown SO fond and defensive of her, she is such a sad and complex character who deserved to be treated better by her writers (and have less racist tropes associated with her. Spike Chunsoft. cough cough) and still deserves to be treated better by the fandom.
And I think you got it RIGHT on the money why I'm inclined towards Chiaki/Akane, actually. Akane has lived such a dark life that not only does she not know how to ask for help or rely on others, she doesn't even realize she needs to - for her, this is just how the world is. Akane, to me, is like the equivalent of a housecat looking at their humans and going, "They don't even know how to hunt. They're all so stupid. I have to go kill mice so they can eat. Are they even bathing themselves properly?? Licking time. Morons." She's incredibly resilient and smart within the context of the VERY SPECIFIC lifestyle she's lived.
And something really appeals to me about someone who solely exists to help people meeting Akane, thinking they can 'save' her, and slowly coming to realize that she is not dumb or unskilled just because she isn't skilled in the way they value. Learning that intelligence isn't a measure of worth and seeing & valuing Akane for who she is - and, at the same time, helping her see that some of the things she's gone through are truly, deeply traumatic, and helping her learn how to rely on others for the first time...that shit gets me. I Just Want Akane To Be Happy

BREAKS DOWN YOUR DOOR TO ASK YOU ABOUT FLAT ESCARDOS
FLAT FLAT FLAT FLAT FLAT!!!! I LOVE TO TALK ABOUT....FLAT! thank u for giving me this opportunity favorite thing about them: everything? lmao, no, in seriousness, it's how much he genuinely loves the world. flat is so excited about every part of humanity and existence!!! he has the kind of authentic joy and appreciation for life that most people lose as they grow up, but even as he grows and changes, he keeps that. flat loves it all and isn't shy about it in the least. i adore him for that. least favorite thing about them: when will my darling little guy develop even an iota of common sense? i get it's for the bit, but come on. give him a dash of it, for my sake. also i hate how he's been totally absent from adventures, but that's just me hating sanda's writing decisions tbh. favorite line: "a human life weighs more than the earth, you know?" brOTP: other than the very obvious and flawless duo of flat and svin (which, like, that should be everyone's first answer tbh), flat and waver have a hilarious platonic dynamic that i love to play around with! also flat and thia, like, holy shit. i did not expect that in volume 7 but i loved it. OTP: VESSEL TRIO OT3 IS SO REAL TO ME. flat/svin/gray is canonical and they are all in love with each other. for peak comedy, see flat/svin/gray/reines, aka waver's nightmare. i also support flat/svin/gray/thia (which is vessel ot4), flat/jack, and flat/any member of the el-melloi class. he's very shippable. nOTP: i don't really have one? like i said, you can ship him with pretty much anyone and it works. he just has that power. random headcanon: even though he grew up in monaco and his first language is french, flat speaks english with a faint cockney accent. this is because as soon as waver took him on as a student, he started copying waver's accent. waver thought he was being mocked for several weeks until he realized that oh, flat really did just actually admire him that much. okay. cool. he has a regular amount of feelings about that. unpopular opinion: flat escardos cheats at every card game you can possibly play. he uses a variety of methods, but mainly he counts cards. i mean, come on, this boy was a child prodigy who grew up on van fem's vampire casino boat!!! you can't tell me he plays an honest game of poker. he's still a sweetheart, but he will rob you blind in texas hold 'em song i associate with them: hyperballad and the modern things, both of which are back to back on my favorite bjork album, post. yes, svin's the one i headcanon is icelandic, but the bjork songs are flat jams. favorite picture of them: he is so cute all of the time, but i love this gem from the apocrypha anime

Ahaha! I definitely wouldve guessed you would like Vriska ships, they are all utterly fucked up.
And despite knowing the answer already I like you to decipher more of ishimondo and kiyotaka so can I ask them for ship and blorbo, I'm still afraid I'm overstayed my welcome though-
Nah, if I had places to be I would just delay answering this ask a bit. Instead, I can watch TV and geek out at the same time. I have achieved peak mental stimulation!
Ishimondo quadrant validation is real though. They went from kismesis to moirails literally in one night and nobody knows how it happened. (The common theory is that they fucked, but on school grounds? I doubt it.) Why must it be cringe to use Homestuck quadrants to refer to non Homestuck ships, it saves a lot of time!
One thing I don't think I've seen very many people talk about is the fact that Taka, Our Taka, broke a the nighttime rule to challenge the toughest guy in the school to an endurance competition. That is a canon thing that happened. He's secretly a loose canon and is trying very very very hard to still qualify as lawful good.
I know it's a plot hole that exists to help the pacing of the trial, but I'd argue that blame fell onto Mondo far too quickly. Taka could have easily known about the broken handbook and was in on it. Mondo could have made that slip of the tongue on purpose to protect him. Especially at the end, where he was refusing to believe Mondo did it. A paranoid person would take this as a possible confession of guilt. People with friends in this killing game are a serious threat to the wellbeing of the group, I'm with Togami on that one.
Since a trial isn't timed, they have no reason to play fast and loose with their lives!
Tangent, do you have a headcanon for Taka's secret?
Mine is that he witnessed whatever caused the scandal as a kid (by kid I'm imagining like 5), and choose not to say anything. He didn't really understand what was going on, and he didn't want to make anyone upset!
However, if it ever got out that he knew, he'd look just as corrupt.
One of my favorite Danganronpa fics (it wasn't really heavily Ishimondo, but its so good) had it be that he broke a pretty serious rule, and I like that interpretation too!
This is more about Ch2 in general than Ishimondo, but I feel like the ideal way to solve the motive would be to get pens from the storeroom and scribble your name off of it, then put all of the motives in a pile and read them out loud. Some names are longer than others, but its still better than just confessing your motive. And then it gives a general idea of how many people might be willing to murder.
another possible solution, though less good, is to lie and say that isn't your worst secret, and hope the others play along.
I'm the kind of person that tries to work out what I'd do in any crisis situation I read about in fiction. Its fun!
Back to the ship of all time, there's actually another (even more messed up) version of the same ship in Total Drama, and meta on that ship applies here. (Anyways, if you like Ishimondo you'll like Duncney, since its basically Ishimondo but M/F. Also since its in a kids show nobody dies!)
Taka desperately wants to be seen as a leader, but he lacks any sort of leadership skills. Mondo, who has no desire to lead over the THH group, has the natural leadership skills. People gravitate to him. Chihiro decided to trust him over any other dude in the class, and not one but two people offered to die for him. (I mean, ideally family shouldn't count to that total, but it still takes some charisma.) I mean, sure, Mondo got offered his position due to nepotism, but it takes actual skills to stay the leader.
In a way, Mondo is the natural genius (its hard to prove since we don't know how good he was as a kid) that Taka should despise at the very thing Taka desperately needs to be good at if he wants to meet his goals. They logically should hate each other.

OC Prompt/Ask
Hi guys! I know it has been a while since I have uploaded any works and it’s due to a few reasons: One of them being my college classes for the spring semester have startred up and I need to get my GPA up so I need to stay on top of my classes. The second reason simply being writers burn out, lmao. That being said, I haven’t stopped coming up with writing ideas and prompts, ya boy just needs to find that motivation again.
This prompt was given to me by an IRL friend of mine back in fall of last year- and while it is a bit different from what I normally write and share; considering I am on the aro/ace spectrum it was quite a challenge to think outside the box. While this short story is meant for kicks and giggles, there is a bit of truth to my IRL seld slipped into it as well. I had put this peice on the back burner for a while and it wasn’t until a rather….unpleasant interaction with a veiwer of mine that gave me the inspo to continue it, lmao.
I hope to finish up some other WIPS in the coming weeks, so please enjoy this story for now!
(PSA: Respect your fellow aces please and thank you.)
Prompt: What is your type?
My type? Whadda mean, My type? Like- blood type or somethin'? Why...exactly do you need to know that? Do you work for those weirdo Maelstrom scientists? Look, man, I don't even think I have a blood type- do you guys forget that I am not human or some shit? I thought the ears and the light show on my face would be a dead giveaway.
Wait, wait, you mean my type in other people? Wha-what kinda fucking question is that?! Why are ya'll so keen on learnin' about my personal life!? Huh?! First, it was that one guy askin' me about my dick size, and now this! Why are ya'll steady tryin' to get into my pants?!
Look, to be real with you, I ain't got the time to be thinkin' about that kinda stuff. I mean- between being a wanted fuckin' convict, a vengeful Maelstrom Captain hunting me down, and trying to keep up business at Kohren's shop, I don't really get a moment to sit down and ponder what gets my dick up, ya know?
Besides, have you seen the folks that live in The Slums? They...ain't my cup of tea to put it nicely. Trust me, this place is called The Slums for a reason, and the people here are no exception. If you ask me, I don't think having a 'type' exists here. The folks around here just go for whatever gets their rocks off and call it a day. Also, I wouldn't touch most people here with a ten-foot pole; unfortunately, basic hygiene is not the everyday standard.
Level with me here: is this somethin' you humans sit up and talk about in your spare time? Do you guys not believe in keepin' certain things to yourselves? Why would you want people to know that kinda shit about you anyways? That would just invite weirdos trying to be your type, and that sounds like a fucking shit show waiting to happen.
I don't know how to answer this one for ya, and I feel like I will let someone down regardless of how I respond or if I simply choose not to. But whatever! I will come clean. I am a little different than other folks; while you guys sit up and think about this stuff all day, this shit simply doesn't compute in my brain. It's never a pressin' thought for me- dontcha humans have a word for that? It's ace, right? Yeah, romance and intimacy ain't really my thing. I mean yeah, I have wants and needs like most folks do, but they... aren't that important- and I was born with two hands for a reason other than craftin' shit at Kohren's shop.
Now, answer me this, how the fuck do you have a type if you have never been with anyone? How does that shit make sense? How do you actually know what you like before you go out and experience it? Is it an exposure thing? I dunno how you human folk mingle with each other but all of this sounds complicated as fuck.
Ughh...fuck...why is this so hard to fucking answer? If I find people unappealing, you'd think it would be easy to pinpoint what I do find appealing.
Does it count if the type is human? Maybe this would be a hell of a lot easier if we took my birthplace out of the equation. Does that count? You know what? We are making it fucking count.
I guess, to keep it short and simple, I like masculine girls and feminine guys. Wha-what do you mean explain further?! What difference does it make if I explain?! It won't increase anyone's chances with me, even if they fit my descriptions! Aight, aight I'm dragin' this on too long.
I like girls with an unbreakable character- ones that don't take any shit, ya know? Someone with an unpredictable personality, one that keeps you on your toes- one that isn't afraid to test your limits and push your buttons.
If...I could be honest...I find it rather...uhm...attractive when girls are taller and have nice muscles- o-of course, it takes a lot of training a-and a proper diet to achieve a physique like that! D-don't mistake that for anything else!
And guys? I prefer when guys aren't afraid to be in touch with their feminine side. Ones who aren't afraid to be emotionally vulnerable can express themselves however they please. Oh- and he has to be clean; there are no exceptions what-so-fucking-ever. I have heard too many horror stories of male hygiene habits from Earth.
Aight, does that answer your question? Honestly, I don't get paid enough to care whether it does. It doesn't matter if someone fits these descriptions either; these are just superficial preferences, and like my old man tells me: "The heart wants what it wants." Or somethin' like that.
