Fuck, just had a hell of a Holland realization, which everyone else probably realized years ago but indulge my horror: The Danes have their stone statue garden of traitors. And the only thing we've ever seen in WL that can turn people to stone is As Staro. The command Holland used to kill his fucking brother. The idea of him having to replicate that kill over and over with the traitors the Danes wanted to make sharpest examples of, and then walk past those kills every fucking day? I have nothing else to say except it's a fucking crime Holland didn't get the same sort of triumphant, bloody fight against the Danes Lila got against the earth mage who tried to kill her in the tournament, because to say he deserved it so much more is the flimsiest possible understatement.
#to be clear. nothing in canon supports this hypothesis. except that well. we absolutely see!#Holland do this particular command and there's not a lott of other ways to make fucking statues#I think it was Dendritic-Trees in her phenomenal ADSOM reread who said of the Danes: what do you even say about human beings like this?#and as much as I love! and write myself! fics shading in the Danes as villains but also people who of course see themselves as the hero of#their own tale. sometimes her comment is a big fucking mood.#Holland lived with these fuckers for seven years. that he had the capacity to A. have any moral code at all but then to be capable of#showing immense mercy in not making Kell use the Inheritor when Kell. honey I adore you but you pushed him through a door to hell for your#survival (don't get me started on it taking seven years for Kell to ask second-hand about the details of Holland's servitude we'll be here#all day.) the depth of Holland's strength is remarkable#Holland Vosijk#Shades Of Magic

Maybe we're thinking about completely different stuff here, but I don't know that there is a way to exclude cis people and include all trans people. Anecdotally, I feel more comfortable in spaces with an unspoken queer vibe (where it's understood that this is in large part a queer space, with visitors welcome) than somewhere I wouldn't have been able to access a handful of years ago. Puts a bad taste in my mouth. There's something to be said about how we can expect such spaces to form, or stay that way, without explicitly preventing it from being diluted with cishet people I suppose.
Trans people (especially trans women!) Are discouraged from having exclusive spaces and communities because being exclusionary is #bad. Meanwhile, cis people have exclusive places fucking everywhere, like almost every public pool in existence.
#as a magic the gathering coded girlie i don't feel i have the authority to comment on that tho#transfem#trans#transgender

Umm…. So why have I not seen anyone talking about season 8 X 13? Dude literally followed Dean around because he thought they had a “little eye-magic moment” back at the quad, so he thought he and Dean would hook up?
Dean was so flustered 😆
What exactly was duce picking up on?? 😂
Deasn: “so we didn’t have a moment?” “He was my gat thing”
Why’d he sound disappointed? 🤣

#queer coding#eye-magic moment#why is Dean always the one singled out for quicker comments?#spn#supernatural#dean winchester

I started watching The Irregular at Magic High School bc the reviews said it had an interesting take on modern magic system and despite looking like potential harem anime, it isn't.
Yeah they forgot to mention the incest part lmao
But oh well, despite that I did find my self go "yay" when I realized there's at least another season more.
#the irregular at magic high school#and yes the magic system is kinda interesting#like magic and coding#also the comments on CR from those who have read the LNs have been enlightening about the sibling dynamics#apparently the anime is doing a shitty job at explaining it

The Wicked Game of Love| Lee Haechan
pairing: slytherin! haechan x ravenclaw! fem.reader genre: rivals to lovers, smut, angst wc: 21k+ (full fic) content warning: explicit content, unprotected sex, public sex, oral (fem. receiving), rough sex (hair-pulling, light spanking), marking (hickeys, bruises), forced proximity, toxic family dynamics, blood status discrimination, mean haechan, usage of wizard ver. of a slur, canon divergence (post-hogwarts /ministry setting), their relationship gives whiplash i apologize in advance, emotional hurt/comfort. summary: Lee Haechan was a pure-blood heir raised to hate everything you are. You, a half-blood girl who knew better than to let your guard down around someone like him. You were never supposed to want each other—until one disastrous kiss shatters everything you’ve worked to protect. a/n: AT LAST it is here!! my blood, sweat, and tears went into this u guys. i hope it was worth the wait. also i somehow ended up with a very dramione-coded fic (yes, this is me coming out as a dramione enjoyer). it’s so long i had to split it into two parts because apparently i don’t know when to stop. part two should be up right after this one (unless i passed out from exhaustion). pls enjoy and scream at me about it in the comments <3 ps: HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY BABYGIRL HAECHAN!!! ILYSM!!!
READ PART 2 HERE
“I hate and I love. Perhaps you ask why I do so? I do not know, but I feel it, and I am tormented.” — Catullus, poem 85
What you and Lee Haechan had could only be described as pure, unadulterated rivalry. Or it started that way, at least.
Your mother and his father had been political opponents for as long as you could remember—two towering figures in the wizarding world, constantly at odds in public and behind closed doors. While your mother built her career on progressive reform and transparency, his father operated in shadows, pulling strings and building alliances that made him one of the most quietly feared men in wizard politics. When your mother was named Minister of Magic, it was only by a thin margin, one that turned their rivalry into something closer to open war.
Because of your parents’ standing, and their closely intertwined conflict, you were often forced to share space. Too much of it. Not just at Hogwarts, but everywhere. Ministry galas, private events, summer functions.
Haechan was like a buzzing fly in your ear, a little gremlin who made it his life’s mission to drive you up the wall. You didn’t like him. You didn’t like his voice, or his slouchy posture, or the way he looked at you with those half-lidded eyes. You didn’t like the stupid pattern of moles on his face or the way he always knew exactly which button to press.
Everyone who knew you, knew you couldn’t stand him. If anything, the daily verbal sparring made it pretty damn clear. But what no one could’ve ever predicted was how quickly this would change.
A change that started when your mother was officially sworn in as Minister.
The announcement made headlines across every wizarding publication, and for a brief moment, your name was something people said with admiration. Students congratulated you in the corridors, professors gave you subtle nods of approval, and even the portraits seemed more polite than usual.
Your mother had been a respected Ministry official long before taking office, a well-known pureblood figure who shocked everyone by marrying a Muggle-born wizard, a choice that set tongues wagging long before you were born. Eventually, your father cracked under the pressure of a world he never fully belonged in, leaving your mother in favor of a simpler life with a Muggle woman.
Because your mother was so busy with her political career, you grew up with your father in the Muggle world, isolated from magic entirely until the age of ten, when strange incidents like your hair changing colors overnight, glass shattering during arguments started happening and forced your mother to intervene.
She brought you into a world you didn’t know then. Hogwarts became your fresh start, your chance to prove you belonged in the magical world despite whispers about your blood status, your father’s scandalous departure, and your upbringing.
Which was exactly why, when you walked into the Great Hall a few days after your mother was sworn in and saw the headline The Daily Prophet had run, it hit so viciously.
“Merlin’s beard, Y/N. Have you seen this?”
Hannah Parkinson’s voice stopped you on your way to the Ravenclaw table. She unfolded her copy with a dramatic flair and shoved it into your face. Your stomach dropped as you read the words.
“THE MINISTER’S HALF-BLOOD HEIRESS: RAISED BY MUGGLES, GROOMED FOR POWER?”
Under the headline was a moving photo of you walking through a Muggle market wearing jeans, scuffed trainers, and a second-hand T-shirt. You hadn’t even noticed the photographer.
Rita Skeeter’s quill did its best to flay you alive.
“Young Miss Y/L/N may carry a famous surname, but does she carry the polish befitting the office? Sources say the new heiress spent most of her childhood in a Muggle household, blissfully ignorant of wizarding custom until age ten—hardly the upbringing our world expects from a Minister’s child.
Classmates describe her as ‘aggressive on a broom, and foul-mouthed in the hallways’. One wonders whether this half-blood Seeker has the temperament to represent us on the international stage.”
And it continued into the next page, because Skeeter never knew when to stop.
“Her fashion sense appears equally questionable as she’s seen in the picture wearing Muggle denim and a shirt bearing a ‘Misfits’ logo (whatever that means). One hopes Madam Malkin can work miracles.”
The tears welled in your eyes before you could blink them back. Skeeter had somehow managed to hit all of your insecurities with one article—your parents separation, the years spent as the weird kid, the endless fight to prove you belonged in the wizarding world—and splashed them across the breakfast tables of the entire wizarding world.
“Aww, is the Minister’s little charity case going to cry?” Hannah cooed mockingly.
Before you could even find the words or grab your wand to shut her up, there was a loud crack behind you. The paper in her hands tore clean in half, as if slashed by an invisible blade. Hannah stumbled back in shock.
Next thing you knew, Lee Haechan was walking past you, his wand still glowing faintly. Dark hair fell in soft waves over his eyes, his uniform tie was crooked as always, his expression flat with boredom.
“Parkinson,” he drawls “I’d ask if the Prophet’s paying you for distribution, but just like your father you clearly enjoy handing out trash for free.”
A collective ooh rippled across the Hall. Hannah’s face turned an impressively blotchy shade of red before she turned around and stalked off, tripping over the hem of her robes.
Haechan turned then, catching your eye before his gaze dipped to your jeans and the battered trainers peeking out beneath your open robes.
“And you.” His mouth curved into a half-snarl. “If you insist on dressing like a stray Muggle, don’t act shocked when the rats sniff you out.”
You flinched at his words, feeling even more self-conscious than when Hannah was insulting you.
He nudged the ruined paper with his shoe, his voice low so only you’d hear it. “Never bleed where they can smell it.” Then, louder in a mocking tone “Try to keep up, you’re the Minister’s pet now.”
He turned on his heels and strolled back to the Slytherin table, his friends thumping him in the back in glee.
You stood frozen, not knowing how to react. He humiliated you, which wasn’t a new thing in your relationship. But this time, it felt as if he’d thrown the punch so no one else could.

After that day, Haechan was still a nuisance to you. Still the boy whose father would do anything to see your mother fail. But now his teasing felt different. It wasn’t sharp the way it used to be. His taunts started landing just shy of cruelty, aimed to sting you into strength instead of out of it. No one noticed the difference except you.
Bit by bit, you found yourself almost looking forward to it. Not that you’d ever admit that out loud.
In the days following the article, you did your best to become invisible—but Hogwarts was not a place that allowed anonymity when your name was constantly on the front page of newspapers. Rita Skeeter’s words spread fast, and soon every corridor was filled with whispers about your family. The attention made you retreat into solitude, often spending your free periods hiding among the furthest library stacks.
One afternoon, as you sat hunched over your Charms textbook, the chair across from you scraped loudly against the stone floor. You looked up, startled and already annoyed.
"Did you lose your way?" you asked coldly, glaring at Haechan as he settled carelessly into the chair opposite.
"Unfortunately not.” He replied with a yawn, dropping his textbooks onto the table with a thud that made you flinch.
"What do you want, Haechan?”
He raised a brow. “Wow, no ‘hello’? No ‘thank you for publicly humiliating a pureblood princess on my behalf’?”
"Right, I almost forgot chivalry’s alive and well in Slytherin.” you said, sarcasm dripping from every word.
"Only when it comes with entertainment value." He leaned back, arms behind his head. "And you're a surprisingly decent show these days."
"Glad I could provide," you muttered. “Did you come here just to annoy me?”
"Nah, I just figured you were desperate enough to tolerate my presence," he retorted, flashing a shit eating grin. "Since your fellow Ravenclaws aren't exactly lining up to spend time with you these days."
You narrowed your eyes. "If you're looking to have a laugh, go bother someone else."
"Believe me, watching you sulk around like a kicked puppy isn’t that fun anymore."
"Then leave," you hissed.
“Can't. I need your notes."
You scoffed loudly. "You're delusional if you think I'd help you."
"Am I?" he tilted his head thoughtfully. “Cause you still haven’t hexed me, which means you're at least considering it."
Your wand hand twitched under the table, and he noticed immediately, mouth quirking upward in amusement. The two of you were used to swapping harmless hexes for years. Silly stuff like changing each other’s hair color, gluing quills to fingers, turning the other’s pumpkin juice to green sludge during breakfast. Nothing scarring, but enough for you to flinch when the other’s temper flared. Haechan’s smirk said he remembered every jinx.
The nature of your relationship is exactly why you weren’t used to having him on your side all of a sudden, and you couldn’t be judged for holding him at a safe distance when you had no idea what his intentions were.
Especially now that his father was capable of doing anything to ruin you and your mother’s reputation with the purpose of hindering her future reelection. Not to mention, you hated feeling like you owed him anything.
"You didn't have to interfere the other day," you muttered bitterly, unable to meet his gaze. "I could’ve handled Hannah myself."
He didn't respond at first. The quiet stretched long enough that you glanced up just in time to catch a strange expression crossing his features. He masked it quickly with indifference.
"Parkinson annoys me," he shrugged.
"Since when?" you raised a skeptical eyebrow.
He leaned forward, voice dropping into a velvety murmur. "Since she started messing with what's mine."
"Excuse me?" you stammered.
"Mine to torment, I mean," he corrected, rolling his eyes. "Merlin, don't get ahead of yourself."
"I wasn't," you snapped, embarrassment twisting sharply in your stomach.
"I know." His smirk returned. "Your pride wouldn't allow it."
You huffed, returning your gaze to your textbook, pretending to read despite the words blurring uselessly in front of you.
He flipped open his own book, pretending to skim through pages in bored silence. After about twenty minutes of silent “studying”, he stood up without looking at you.
"I’ll come back tomorrow for those notes.
You hesitated, feeling the inexplicable urge to humor him, despite every reason not to. "Fine. Whatever."
"And stop hiding in the library every day. It's depressing."
"Fuck off," you shot back sharply.
His answering laugh echoed as he walked away and you sat there for the next few minutes trying to summon any sense of concentration to no avail.
A week later you were back in the library, this time sequestered at a corner table piled with parchment and potion vials. Professor Slughorn had paired the two of you for an extra-credit antidote project—“my favorite students working together!” he’d said with a wink—and neither of you had managed to wriggle out of it.
Haechan wasn’t really doing any work, he just kept twirling his quill and splattering ink blots across your carefully labeled ingredient chart.
“Could you not?” you snapped, blotting at the stains.
“Relax,” he said, slouching until his knees bumped yours under the table. “Don’t you know that chaos is the mother of invention?”
“That mentality is how you melted the cauldron earlier in class”
He grinned. “That was funny, though.”
You rolled your eyes and bent back over your parchment, quill scratching furiously across the page. You could feel him watching you, but you refused to look up.
The quiet of the library was broken by a burst of loud whispers from a nearby table.
“…I bet he only keeps the half-blood around because he feels bad for her—”
“—heard they sneak off after curfew. Wonder what she’s giving him in return…”
You didn’t even need to guess who they were talking about. It was obvious what people thought when they saw you with the Slytherin golden boy, the heir of one of the most ancient pureblood families. They probably thought you were his charity case as well. That you were stupid enough to want him around after all he said to you.
Your pulse pounded too hard in your ears to hear Haechan’s chair scraping back. A second later, the gossipers’ table went silent, punctuated only by the unmistakable snap of someone’s quill being broken in half.
He walked back to your table and dropped into his seat, jaw tight. “Idiots.”
You shoved your notes into a messy stack. “I’m done for tonight.”
“Y/N—” he reached across the table, but you were already on your feet.
You didn’t stop until you reached an unused classroom three corridors away. It was cold and dusty, with cobwebs in the corners and desks scattered around.
The ghost of a bride hovered near the corner, sobbing quietly into her translucent veil. You ignored her as you braced both hands on the windowsill, trying to steady your breathing, willing the sting behind your eyes to fade.
After a few minutes, the ghost floated silently through the wall, giving you a mournful look—as if accepting that you had more reason to cry tonight.
The door clicked open after a few seconds.
“Thought I told you I was done,” you said without turning.
“And since when do I listen?” Haechan closed the door behind him.
You didn’t reply, only sound that could be heard was your quiet sniffles and his slow steps getting near.
“They’re not worth it.” His voice was careful. “A new article will come out tomorrow and everyone will move on. You know people need a new chew toy every week.”
You huffed a shaky laugh. “Easy for you to say. Your family’s never been headline fodder.”
“Sure we have. Just with less sensational adjectives.” He stepped closer until your shoulders brushed lightly. “Besides, if they’re going to talk, we might as well give them something good to gossip about.”
You glanced up at him, puzzled. “Like what?”
Haechan hesitated for a quick second, before his mouth quirked into that half-smile you recognized as the one he gave before saying something ridiculous. “We could pretend to date.”
A surprised laugh burst out of you, louder than you’d intended. “Fake dating? Seriously?”
“Why not?” His expression was deceptively casual, but his eyes stayed serious on yours. “It’s the quickest way to control the narrative. People eat that shit up.”
You shook your head, smiling, expecting him to crack up and admit he was joking any second now. But his expression didn't waver, and you faltered slightly.
“You’re not serious.”
His gaze didn’t shift. “What if I am?”
You stared at him, waiting for the joke, the laughter—but it didn’t come. Still, the idea was too absurd. Fake dating Lee Haechan? Impossible.
You shook your head again, forcing another laugh as you quickly dismissed the notion. “Nice try, Lee. But I think I’ll stick to something easier to manage like maybe getting top marks in our Potions assignment?”
He chuckled, finally relenting. “Suit yourself.”
Another tear escaped as you laughed softly, embarrassed. You swiped at your cheek. “God, I hate crying.”
“Yeah, you’re an ugly crier.” He nudged your shoulder gently
You rolled your eyes, shoving his arm, but he caught your hand mid-motion. His thumb brushed lightly over your knuckles, making your breath catch. For a moment you both stood there quietly, until finally, you let out a slow exhale and allowed your head to rest carefully against his shoulder.
He stiffened for barely a second, then relaxed, leaning gently into your weight.
Neither of you spoke again until the clock tower chimed curfew. Reluctantly, you straightened, feeling calmer but oddly reluctant to move away from him.
“We should finish that antidote tomorrow,” you murmured.
He nodded, eyes searching your face as if confirming you really were okay. “All right.”
When he left, his suggestion lingered in your thoughts, stuck there like an itch you couldn’t scratch.
Fake dating Lee Haechan. You snorted softly to yourself, shaking your head as you walked back to the common room. The idea was not only ridiculousbut completely impossible.
Yet your brain, traitorous as always, circled back stubbornly to it. The thought of Haechan holding your hand in the corridors, leaning closer at dinner, brushing a casual kiss to your forehead in front of everyone...
Heat rose sharply in your cheeks.
Ridiculous, yes… but not completely unappealing, if you were honest. He was handsome and smart, plus he wasn’t as irritating as you originally thought.
You shook your head again firmly, as if to physically dislodge the thought. No. You couldn’t afford to indulge this. It was crazy. Dangerous, even.
But as you walked up to the Gold Eagle Knocker at the entrance of the Ravenclaw common room and answered the riddle, you couldn’t deny the way your heart sped up at the thought of everyone believing you belonged to each other.

You spent more and more days studying with Haechan after that. Or rather, you studying while he studied you. It was a comfortable escape from judgmental whispers and the scrutiny of everyone else’s eyes. Somehow, he’d become your calm in the midst of chaos.
To your surprise, Haechan was actually a good listener, offering better advice than anyone else you'd ever met. It was unexpected for someone who seemed born to antagonize, but behind his cutting remarks was someone who noticed more than he let on.
He was even helping you improve your flying form, despite technically being your biggest rival since both of you played Seeker. But he’d started noticing small flaws in your technique, quietly pointing them out during your private drills. You only learned to fly at eleven, which made you less experienced compared to Haechan who’d practically grown up on a broom.
“You’re still dropping your shoulder every time you dive for the Snitch,” he called over one afternoon, a playful grin on his face as you landed and sat on the grass.
“I do not,” you shot back, brushing hair from your sweaty forehead.
“Yes, you do.” He snorted lightly, tossing himself onto the grass beside you. “It’s why I keep beating you in dives.”
“Whatever.” You sighed, picking at blades of grass. Admitting your weakness felt uncomfortable, but the words slipped out anyway. “It’s just...dives still freak me out a bit.”
His teasing expression softened immediately. Quietly, he stood and held out a hand. “Come on, I’ll show you how to fix it.”
You hesitated only a second before taking his hand. The warmth of his fingers sent a small flutter through your chest.
“Mount your broom,” he instructed gently, letting go once you were steady. “But don’t kick off yet.”
You did as told, gripping the handle tight enough to hide the slight tremble in your fingers. He moved behind you, his presence too close. You felt your breath catch sharply when one of his hands gently settled on your lower back, steadying you. His palm felt impossibly warm through your Quidditch robes.
“You’re way too tense,” he murmured, amused. You jumped slightly when his other hand rested firmly on your shoulder. “Relax a bit, yeah?”
“How am I supposed to relax when you’re—”
“Just trust me.”
You tried to turn your head but he gently redirected your chin with his fingertips, guiding your gaze straight ahead.
“Eyes forward. If you were flying, you'd have crashed already.”
Heat rushed to your cheeks, not from embarrassment, but from the soft rasp of his voice near your ear and the firm grip of his hands. You swallowed thickly. “It’s hard to concentrate with you right there.”
“I’m just correcting your form,” his fingers moved softly along your spine, and every nerve in your body seemed to spark under his touch.
His grip tightened slightly on your shoulder, pressing it into a more relaxed position. “Keep it down like this. Shift your weight forward without leaning into your broom too hard.” His breath was warm in your ear. “Trust your broom, and trust yourself. And stop tensing every muscle just because you’re afraid you’ll fall.”
“Easy for you to say,” you mumbled, frowning. “You were born with a broom attached to your hand.”
“Just try the dive.” he chuckled.
You hovered mid-air and bent forward, shoulders steady this time as the broom descended. The dive went smoother and your stomach didn’t feel like a bottomless pit.
“That…felt better.”
He grinned. “Told you.”
You dismounted, heart still thumping. “Thanks.”
“Anytime,” he said, grabbing his own broom. Then, with a teasing smile, “Just remember who helped you when you finally beat me to the Snitch.”
The following week The Great Hall hummed with the usual breakfast chatter. It had been an awkward morning, people seemed more on edge than usual and you didn’t even know why until commotion started by the Slytherin table.
Haechan’s voice rose sharply with anger, breaking through the murmurs. “Mind your own business, will you?”
Glancing over your shoulder, you saw him glaring down a small cluster of Hufflepuffs who immediately ducked their heads, faces flushed and eyes darting nervously. He snatched a crumpled copy of the Daily Prophet from one boy’s trembling fingers. He looked up and his eyes locked onto yours.
“Enjoying this?” he stalked toward you, paper clenched in one fist.
“What are you talking about?” you asked, defensive under the weight of everyone’s stares.
He threw the Prophet down onto the Ravenclaw table. The headline screamed out in black lettering “MINISTRY SCANDAL—LEE FAMILY FACING INQUIRY OVER ILLEGAL DARK ARTEFACTS”
“You happy now?” Haechan hissed. “Your mother’s finally getting rid of the bad press. Congratulations, Minister’s pet.”
“What… I—We had nothing to do with this!”
“Oh, really?” he sneered bitterly, leaning in closer. “Funny how these stories started coming out right after the articles about you. Maybe Skeeter wasn’t so wrong… hanging around Muggles didn’t teach your family much about fair play.”
A few gasps echoed softly around you. You wanted to scream, to hex him right then and there, but your hands shook too badly under the table to even grip your wand.
You lifted your chin, staring back. “What are you really so upset about? That your father’s finally being exposed, or that people might think you’re just like him?”
His expression faltered enough to let you know your barb had landed. Of anything you could’ve said that was probably the worst for him.
Haechan didn’t just resent his father. He was terrified of becoming him. Every cruel instinct he buried, every smirk that masked something darker, every time he played the game too well—he wondered if he was already halfway there. So hearing it from your mouth, that disgust, that echo of everything he feared he might become? It was too much and it shook something in him loose.
“You’re right,” he said with a cruel laugh. “My father’s not a good man. But at least he never pretended to be. Your mother clawed her way to the top on the back of others and you’re just her dirty little project. Filthy blood dressed in silk. And no matter how high you climb, you’ll always reek of where you came from.”
The air drained from your lungs. It wasn’t just the insult — it was how easy it came to him. As if it had always been there, lurking under his tongue. You stared numbly at the crumpled headline on the table.
He was clearly deflecting. Protecting himself and his family’s name. But you never expected him to use words you’d only ever heard whispered by the worst kind of witches and wizards.
Haechan stormed out of the Great Hall, past the whispers and stares, past the first-years who scrambled aside in fear, past the professors who pretended they didn’t see anything. He didn’t slow down until he reached the abandoned courtyard behind the greenhouses, his breaths coming short and shallow.
He braced a hand against the cold stone wall, his pulse pounding sickeningly in his ears.
“Filthy blood dressed in silk”
The echo of his own voice made bile rise in his throat. He’d said it so easily, so effortlessly cruel, exactly like his father would have.
He could still see the way your expression had shattered. Not in anger—that would have been easier to stomach—but stunned disbelief, pain etched deep into your features, your chin held high even as your eyes welled with tears. He’d torn you open, hit you exactly where he knew it would cut deepest, and he’d done it because he couldn’t face feeling vulnerable himself.
“Fuck,” he whispered harshly, sliding down onto the nearest bench and burying his face in his hands. He felt like a coward. No, he felt worse. He felt exactly like the kind of person he’d sworn he would never become.
He’d watched you go through this already, helped you pick up the pieces, telling you people would forget, that it wouldn’t matter in the end. But he’d never imagined his family would become the next target. He’d never expected the anger, the embarrassment, to burn so personally.
He swallowed thickly, head tilting back against the wall, gaze fixed unseeingly on the darkening sky. He needed to fix this. Needed you to understand that he’d meant none of it, that he wasn’t like his father, even if today he’d failed spectacularly at proving it.
But how could you possibly forgive him after what he'd said?
He wasn’t even sure if he could forgive himself.

The courtyard incident never reached the Headmaster, but the castle carried gossip faster than owls. By the next morning everyone knew Lee Haechan had called the Minister’s daughter “filthy blood” to her face. Ravenclaws pitched him glares sharp enough to cut skin. Half the Slytherins avoided eye contact, the rest wore smirks that said at least one of us finally said it out loud.
You refused to be in the same corridor with him, let alone speak. At meals you sat with your team while he took the far end of the Slytherin table and toyed with food he never finished. Whenever you entered the library, he left. Wordlessly. Every time.
The distance should have made things easier, instead it thrummed like a headache behind your eyes.
Thing’s should’ve calmed down after that, but the Prophet ran a follow-up column on the Lee investigation, calling Haechan directly a liability to the family reputation. Skeeter framed his words against you in the Great Hall as proof of the “volatile Lee temper,” the perfect angle to question whether the family’s dark artefact inquiry hinted at deeper corruption.
She quoted unnamed “allies” of the Lee family who feared the heir’s public outbursts were undermining decades of carefully polished prestige. In Skeeter’s telling, Haechan wasn’t just an embarrassed teenager but a wobbling pillar threatening to topple the entire Lee dynasty.
You closed the paper before anyone could see your hands shaking. Whatever anger you still felt, seeing him reduced to a scandalous article—no less than you had been—left a sour taste in your mouth that lasted throughout breakfast.
By the time you slid into Charms class, your stomach was in knots. Professor Flitwick’s flickering quill skated across the blackboard, dividing your Charms class into pairs for the upcoming Presentation on Non-Verbal Counter Charms.
The moment your name appeared next to Lee, H., the knots pulled so tight you thought you might throw up.
Across the room, Haechan twirled his wand between two fingers, deliberately avoiding your gaze. You’d managed to avoid him so well you were half-convinced the castle had sprouted secret passages just to keep you apart, so being forced into proximity again felt deeply unpleasant.
“Partners will demonstrate in two weeks,” Flitwick announced, clapping his tiny hands. “Research and practice outside class is essential!”
Reluctantly, you gathered your things and walked stiffly to the empty seat next to Haechan. He didn’t bother moving his books to make room for you.
“I wrote down a few options,” you said, dropping your notes onto the corner of the desk. “I’ll handle wand movement notation, you can do the theory.”
Haechan barely cracked one eye open. “Pass. Last time I trusted your wand work, I nearly lost my eyebrows.”
“That was in Defense class, and you deserved it,” you snap, voice sharp enough that two Gryffindors glancd over. “Just do the theory, Haechan. It’s not that hard.”
“Oh, I’m sorry—did I miss the part where we decided you’re in charge?” He straightened slowly, finally meeting your glare. “If Flitwick’s grading us on performance, I’m not gonna let you take all the spotlight.”
You exhaled sharply. “Then what’s your brilliant idea?”
“We can meet in the library tonight,” he said evenly. “Let’s practice first, figure out who does what later.”
“Fine,” you snapped.
“Fine.” He leaned back again. “And let’s do something advanced. Your choice, if that makes you feel better.”
You rolled your eyes, muttering a resigned “Whatever”
When you arrived at the library a few hours later, it was mostly empty aside from a Ravenclaw girl who was crying into her Potion notes and Madam Pince who was judging from her desk at the front. Haechan was sitting at a back table, posture so straight it seemed unnatural for him. His eyes flicked up only when you dropped your bag across from him.
“Non-verbal Disillusionment,” you said by way of greeting. “It’s a simple figure eight motion. If you botch it, I’m not explaining to Flitwick why you’re half-invisible in class.”
He lifted an eyebrow. “Nice to see you, too.”
“Let’s try partial disillusionment first, just my hand."
He raised his wand, eyes narrowing in concentration. "Stay still," he murmured. His wand flicked in a tight spiral. At first nothing happened, then slowly your fingertips began to shimmer into the tabletop, camouflaging perfectly with the wood.
“Not bad,” you admitted, slightly impressed.
He lowered his wand, the illusion fading quickly. "Your turn."
You focused carefully, tracing a precise spiral in the air. His hand flickered briefly before returning fully visible.
He gave you a faint smirk. "Looks like you need some pointers."
“Just be quiet for two seconds, will you?"
"Maybe try easing up on the wrist movement," he suggested anyway. "Less stiff."
You tried again and his fingertips vanished almost completely. He flexed them experimentally.
"Better," he said quietly.
Halfway through the wand practice he paused. "About the other day, in the Great Hall—"
You tensed immediately, eyes snapping up to meet his. “I’m not really here for an encore performance,” you muttered.
Your counterspell fizzled again, causing reddish brown to bleed through the fading illusion on his arm. He didn’t mock you this time. Instead, he silently recast the charm, patiently waiting for you to try again
“I was a dick,” he said quietly. “And not in my usual charming way. I mean… a proper, full-scale dick.”
“I’m aware.” You said, though you wanted to laugh at the way he described that.
“I crossed a line," he finished, holding your gaze steadily. "I shouldn't have lashed out like that or called you a—”
“A filthy half-blood?” you finished, swallowing around the tightness in your throat.
His jaw tightened. “Yeah. My father always taught me the fastest way to look strong was to punch down. It’s taken me this long to realize how pathetic that is.”
"You didn't have to throw me to the wolves to save yourself."
He exhaled slowly, looking tired and ashamed. “I know. And I’m sorry.”
His sincerity softened some of the tension that had lodged itself inside your chest. After a pause, you gave him a small nod. “Apology acknowledged.”
He tilted his head cautiously. “But not accepted?”
"Still pending," you offered quietly. "But no more low blows and no more humiliating me publicly."
He almost smiled, relaxing slightly. "Fair, truce?"
You hesitated, then held out your hand. "Truce."
He took it firmly, and you felt warmth linger briefly even after he let go. You hesitated, fingers tracing the edge of your wand.
“How are you doing, by the way? With... everything. The Prophet. The investigation on your father.”
Haechan looked down at the table, then exhaled a laugh that had no humor in it. “It’s weird. Part of me’s pissed they’re dragging his name through the dirt. The other part…” He trailed off, swallowing hard. “The other part thinks maybe it’s what he deserves.”
You stayed quiet, but your hand crept across the table, resting just near his.
“I keep thinking,” he said softly, “if they tear him down, does that mean they’re tearing down part of me, too?”
You bit your lip. “No. You’re not him.”
“Don’t sound so sure.” He smiled, but it didn’t reach his eyes. “I sounded exactly like him that day in the Great Hall.
“But that’s not who you are.” You reassured him softly.
His hand moved then, his pinky brushing yours.
“Thanks,” he said, voice barely above a breath.
“Ready to try the full-body charm?”
He leaned back with a teasing smirk. "Try not to make me disappear permanently. I know you'd miss me."
You rolled your eyes, but couldn't entirely suppress your smile. "Don't tempt me."
For the next hour you traded spells and counter-spells. He still rolled his eyes and mocked your notes, but the comments landed softer every time, the edge dulled by something like mutual respect or at least mutual exhaustion. When Madam Pince finally shooed you out of the library, you’re silently looking forward to the next practice.

After that truce in the library, nothing between you and Haechan got any easier.
In private, he still showed up to practice and study. In public, he kept his distance, afraid that more articles would come out. The more time you spent around him, the riskier everything felt.
If anyone had asked, you would have denied thinking about Lee Haechan at all—denied the way your pulse lurched when his broom skimmed too close during matches, denied how your gaze drifted to his mouth when he argued with you in class, denied the fierce stab of protectiveness that flared whenever someone else insulted him.
But your parents were still political adversaries, and it was the middle of the elections which meant everything was so much more fragile. You were starting to think that The Prophet had spies in Hogwarts. The rumor that Rita Skeeter could transform into a fly and that’s how she heard so many private conversations was starting to seem more believable every day.
Because of the complexity of all these things, you hand no choice but to roll your eyes at Haechan in the corridors, call him insufferable beside your friends, and let the castle believe you hated him without exception.
Mostly you stuck with your own Quidditch team since it was easier to pretend around them. Venting about the Slytherin Seeker was practically a bonding ritual.
“He’s such an asshole!” Mika spat after a Saturday match, pushing her dark hair off her forehead.
“I can’t believe Madam Hooch let that shoulder check slide,” Renjun grumbled, ripping off his gloves. “He nearly sent you into the stands.”
“Typical Slytherin, they only know how to play dirty,” you agreed breathlessly, bruised, and secretly exhilarated.
But you weren’t totally innocent either.
That morning at breakfast, right before the match, you’d gotten into one of your usual arguments with him over something silly like who’d scored more points this season or who had better broom control.
“Keep dreaming, Lee,” you said, smirking across the table. “You’ll fumble the second the Snitch shows up.”
He scoffed, chin propped on his hand. “If I win today, I want a reward.”
“A reward?”
“Yeah. Something worthy of beating you.”
You pretended to think, tapping your fork to your lip. “Fine. If you catch the Snitch, I’ll give you whatever you want.”
The words left your mouth with a casual shrug, but the second you said them, his expression darkened with interest.
“Anything?” He asked, lowering his voice enough so only you could hear. “You might not like what I want though.”
You blinked, suddenly very aware of how close his knee was to yours under the table.
His gaze flicked briefly down to your mouth, then back up. “See you on the pitch, then.” he said softly, pulling away with a smirk that left your cheeks burning.
You’d said it as a joke. Obviously. But now, after the match, with bruises blooming on your ribs and your teammates fuming about missed fouls, you couldn’t stop replaying that look on his face. And to top it all off…
He’d caught the damn Snitch.
You waited until your teammates were gone and the Slytherin tent was empty to walk in. Haechan was sitting on a bench there, shirt half-off and hair damp with sweat.
“Took you long enough,” he sighed, leaning back in his arms.
“You’re lucky the wind was on your side today.”
“Aht! Aht! Don’t come at me with that now, you were still confident enough to bet.’
You rolled your eyes. “Whatever, you’re not even going to cash that in.”
“Oh, but I am.” He pushed off the bench slowly, stepping closer. “You can’t offer something like that and expect me to just forget.”
You crossed your arms. “What do you want, then? A box of Fizzing Whizbees? A foot massage?”
“Tempting. But no.” His fingers reached out, tucking a piece of hair behind your ear before letting his hand drop.
“I want you to admit I’m the better Seeker.”
“Come off it.” you laughed.
He leaned in a fraction, his voice lower now. “Alright then. I want you to ask nicely.”
“What?”
“Please, Haechan, what do you want from me?” he said, mocking your voice. “Say it.”
He was getting too close. Your eyes flicked to his mouth for half a second, and you knew he caught it.
“Is this the part where you make me kiss your boots or something?” you scoffed, looking at a point behind him instead of his eyes.
“I have a better idea of what you can kiss.”
An annoying flush crept up your neck, lips parting in disbelief at the implication.
“Excuse me?” you asked, with a laugh that came out shakier than intended.
“You heard me.” He didn’t look away, didn’t even blink.
This wasn’t your usual banter anymore. The kind you could dismiss with a scoff and a snide remark. This felt infinitely more charged.
“Oh, you’re disgusting.” You muttered.
“We made a deal,” he said, stepping even more into your space. “And I won.”
You backed up slightly, only to hit the wooden lockers behind you.
“What exactly do you want from me, Haechan?”
“That,” he started, his voice lower and raspier now “is a great question.”
He moved slowly as if he was offering a chance to run but you didn’t. Maybe you should have.
His hand came up, knuckles brushing your jaw. “You want to know what I want?”
You swallowed hard and nodded.
“I want to know what happens when you stop pretending you hate me.”
“I don't pr—”
“Don’t lie. I've seen the way you look at me when you think no one’s watching, you’re so obvious.”
You tilted your head, defiant even now. “Fine, let’s say you're right. What then?”
He gasped so slightly you barely caught it before his smirk came back in full force.
“Then we need to do something about it.”
You stared up at him, close enough to count every damn mole on his stupid, perfect face.
He leaned in until his lips brushed your ear. “Unless,” he whispered, “you’re scared you’ll like it.”
Your hands twitched at your sides.
“As if.”
You kissed him so hard you knew it would bruise later. And for a second it wasn’t about politics or Quidditch or the Prophet or who hated who first. It was just his mouth on yours, insistent and warm, and the way his hands gripped your waist possessively.
The kiss only lasted a few seconds before he pulled back, breathless.
“That was definitely better than a foot massage.”
He barely finished the words before your mouth crashed onto his again, hungrier this time, any shred of dignity gone. Your fingers slid up his neck, tugging him down by the collar of his robes.
Haechan chuckled into your mouth, and you felt him press you harder into the wood, his body trapping you there.
“So much for hating me,” he murmured, breaking just far enough away to speak, his breath hot against your lips.
“Shut up,” you hissed, fingers tightening in his hair as you pulled him back down to you, kissing him roughly to silence that stupid mouth.
He groaned against your lips, slightly annoyed at how good you were at this. Your hands caressed his jaw where stubble was growing. His hands found your hips and squeezed firmly.
You gasped, lips parting to give him an opening, and he took it immediately, deepening the kiss with the kind of reckless arrogance that made your knees tremble. One of his hands slid lower, slipping under your Quidditch shirt to brush bare skin.
“Fuck—” you breathed, eyes fluttering shut when his mouth pulled away to trail along your jaw. “Haechan.”
He hummed, pleased at the way his name sounded from your lips. “Say that again.”
You shook your head stubbornly, pulling his mouth back to yours, swallowing the cocky smirk you could feel forming. You needed him silent, you needed to stop thinking, stop remembering that this was Lee Fucking Haechan.
His thigh pressed between your legs, and suddenly it was harder to pretend you didn’t want this with every fiber of your being. Especially when you were arching against him, hips chasing the friction shamefully. He noticed and pressed harder, savoring the breathless sound you made.
“Not so mouthy now, are you?” he teased, nipping your lower lip.
“Just—god—stop talking,” you breathed, dragging your nails down the back of his neck, earning a rough groan that vibrated through you.
Your head spun from how quickly this was happening, how eagerly your body surrendered to him.
He smirked against your lips. “But I like watching you argue.”
You grabbed his jaw firmly, forcing his gaze down to yours, reveling in the way his breath stuttered at your sudden boldness. “Haechan, I swear—”
“What?” His voice was challenging, eyes glittering with excitement. “What are you gonna do?”
The answer came in the form of your hand sliding down to palm him through the fabric of his quidditch trousers, smiling sharply when his confident expression fell, eyes squeezing shut as he bit out a moan.
“That.” You murmured, stroking him again, slowly.
He recovered quickly and was kissing you again with a hand tangling in your hair, tugging firmly enough to make you gasp.
“Two can play dirty, princess.” He growled softly, hips pressing forward into your hand.
“Then fucking play,” you challenged, breathless.
His fingers swiftly undid the buttons of your trousers. Nothing but heat flushed your skin as he slipped his hand lower and under your panties, fingers finding exactly where you needed him.
You cried out sharply, hips bucking into his touch.
“So sensitive,” he teased, voice shaking just slightly as his fingers circled your clit gently, then pressed inside you. “I wonder if your team knows their perfect little seeker gets this wet for a Slytherin.”
“Shut—ah—” your retort melted into a moan, hips grinding shamelessly against his hand.
Your head fell back against the locker, lips parted in a silent gasp as Haechan’s fingers worked you over. Your legs were already trembling, breath hitching in time with every curl of his fingers.
The need to to wipe off the fucking look on his face of pure cocky satisfaction was overcoming. He was watching you unravel like this was the victory he really wanted—not the snitch, not the match, this is what he’d been craving the most.
“Who knew,” he murmured. “That you’d look this pretty falling apart all over my fingers.”
You couldn’t even glare at him, all your strength focused on moving your hips against his hand, chasing that high, chasing him. Until the unmistakable sound of footsteps approaching froze you both on the spot.
His hand stilled immediately, and you slapped it away in a a panic. Your pants were unbuttoned, his shirt was still half-off, your lips were swollen, and you could feel your pulse between your thighs, desperate and unfinished. This was not exactly how you wanted to be caught dead.
“Shit,” you hissed, shoving him back as quickly as your wobbly knees allowed.
Haechan grabbed his wand and muttered a cleaning charm under his breath, wiping any visible evidence from his hands and your legs. Then, he schooled his expression into that bored and slightly annoyed mask he wore in class.
You barely had time to fix your clothes before a voice rang out from outside.
“Haechan? You in here?”
The Slytherin beater, Na Jaemin.
Haechan stepped out of the tent as if he hadn’t just been knuckle-deep inside you. “Just grabbing my wand,” he lied smoothly. “I didn't know I needed a hall pass to change.”
Jaemin laughed. “Hey, was someone else in there?”
You forced yourself to step out, tucking your shirt in with trembling fingers and praying to every god in the castle that your face didn’t look as wrecked as it felt..
Jaemin blinked at you, confused. “Oh.”
Then he looked between the two, and you could see the pieces falling in place.
“Right…” he said, drawing out the word. “Well, don’t let me interrupt. Just figured you’d want to see the scoreboard. They’ve posted top players.”
Haechan raised a brow. “Top players?”
Jaemin gave a pointed look. “i think you’ll be surprised.”
Then he turned and walked out, leaving behind a thick silence in his wake. You let out a breath, arms crossed tightly over your chest.
“That was a close call.” He said, still looking way too proud for someone who’d just been caught mid-debauchery.
You glared. “I'm going to kill you.”
He smirked. “Only if you say please.”

The Ministry’s Galas always felt like a battlefield in ball gowns, but this year it was worse. Your mother moved through the ballroom with effortless grace, every nod and handshake a subtle show of dominance. You followed half a step behind, champagne flute untouched in your hand.
“Y/N, darling, try to look engaged,” she murmured, looping her arm through yours as she guided you toward yet another tedious cluster of political allies. “This is the perfect opportunity to make connections before graduation.”
“Can I at least enjoy dessert before I get offered a job I don’t want?” you said under your breath.
She laughed lightly as if you’d said something charming. “You have options, dear. The International Magical Cooperation office is always interested in young minds, and the Department of Magical Law Enforcement has already reached out. You could even apprentice under Councilwoman Fairbairn, she’s been watching you.”
You blinked, trying to summon enthusiasm. “That sounds... overwhelming.”
“It sounds like a future,” she corrected, smiling at a passing Wizengamot elder. “We can’t all be Quidditch captains forever.”
You clenched your teeth behind a tight smile. This entire night was curated around your mother’s standards. From your dress, your hairstyle, to your perfectly timed laugh. And you were so bored you could scream.
So when she paused to speak to a pair of visiting diplomats, you used the opportunity to escape toward the dessert table. You stuffed a sugared pumpkin tart into your mouth just to have an excuse not to answer questions about your “career trajectory.” If anyone asked again about your post-Hogwarts plans, you were going to throw yourself into the enchanted punch fountain.
The peace lasted until you felt that familiar prickle between your shoulder blades. You turned just as Haechan bowed to a council witch, and walked straight toward you.
“Enjoying the pastries, princess?” he asked, stopping close enough that the chandelier lights caught a storm of gold in his eyes.
“You should focus on your father’s damage control, not my dessert plate,” you replied, forcing a smile that hurt your cheeks.
“Trust me, he’s better at politics without me. Besides, I’m here to make sure you don’t die of boredom.” he said with a crooked grin.
Then as if it was the most common thing, he wiped a bit of powdered sugar from the corner of your lip. The action shocked the reply out of your mind, and you had to look around to make sure nobody saw that. A passing journalist drifted too near so you stepped back on instinct and lifted your chin to reply.
“I would rather be bored than babysat by you.” The reporter’s quill twitched happily and moved on.
Haechan’s eyes cooled, but a corner of his mouth lifted. “If you keep insulting me that sweetly, people might think you mean the opposite.”
“Are you ever serious about anything?” you rolled your eyes, yet your pulse thudded hard enough to blur the string quartet.
He offered his hand. “One dance. You can call me names the whole time.”
“Not a chance,” you hissed but a council member brushed past and mistook your glare for a smile. “Oh, Miss Y/N, would you lead the next waltz?”
Before you could refuse, Haechan’s hand slid to your back. “She’d be delighted,” he said smoothly, steering you onto the glassy floor.
You settled your palm against his shoulder, felt muscle tense under velvet, and tried to count the steps. But his thumb brushed the inside of your wrist and the numbers scattered.
“You’re shaking,” he whispered.
“It’s the tempo,” you lied.
The waltz spun you through three agonizing minutes of perfect posture and silent arguments fought with eyes alone. When the final note faded, applause burst around you, and you let go as if burned.
You escaped to a side corridor lined with stained-glass portraits. Halfway down, you heard his footsteps. You spun, skirt whipping.
“You had no right—”
“No right to what? Save you from making a scene?” He stopped an arm’s length away, breathing hard. “I’m pretty sure we’re here to keep appearances.”
“Oh, thank you,” you snapped. “But I can fight my own battles.”
“I’m aware.”
A flickering wall sconce threw silver across his cheekbone, your eyes followed the droplets of melted snow that still clung to his hair from the ride here. He looked beautiful, and you hated it.
“Why do you always do this,” you said, softer now, “You always make everything harder than it needs to—”
He stepped closer. “Do you really not know why?”
Your breath caught, his gaze dipped to your lips.
“Haechan… this isn’t right,” you whispered.
“I know,” he answered, not moving back. “But tell me you don’t want it too.”
A voice rounded the corridor corner—two aides chatting about the banquet. Without thinking, you grabbed Haechan’s collar and dragged him into a narrow alcove behind a velvet drape. The aides passed but you still held onto him.
“You’re truly such a pain,” you breathed.
“You’re one to talk.” He said and kissed you before you could come up with another retort.
His hands framed your face, thumbs stroking away shock. Yours fisted in the silk of his robe as you kissed him back, matching every demand. The gala’s distant music thumped through the walls, but inside the alcove everything narrowed to the press of mouth on mouth, the soft catch of your breath, the relief of finally, finally shutting each other up.
When you broke apart, you were both trembling. He rested his forehead against yours.
“This is so dumb,” you breathed.
“I have to disagree.”
Another set of footsteps came from outside and you pulled away smoothing your hair. He straightened his lapels with a tiny smirk on his lips.
“Lose the grin, Lee.” you said, slipping out first into the hall, masking swollen lips behind a polite smile. He followed a minute later, expression schooled into neutrality again.
Across the hall, your mother caught your gaze. You forced yourself to move toward her, while behind you his fingers brushed across the back of your hand before letting go
A week went by without much thought. The bruises from the gala’s waltz, the little half-moon marks his fingers left on your wrist, had faded. But the memory of that alcove kiss refused to. Unfortunately, life went on, and in your household that meant tea with the Minister at precisely eight in the morning.
Your mother was already seated in the glass-roofed conservatory, steam curling from a delicate china pot. She greeted you with the smile she reserved for diplomats.
“Sit, darling.”
You obeyed quietly but anxiety bubbled in your chest. She only used this much ceremony when she was about to drop a bomb.
“I’ve been thinking about your future,” she began, pouring. “You’ve always excelled in Defense, but I know how fond you are of languages as well. So I called in a favor.”
Your stomach dipped. “Mom…”
She set a parchment envelope on the table. “A summer internship in the Department of International Magical Cooperation, right after NEWTs. You’ll shadow the Trade Accords division, they might even pay if you impress them.”
“I didn’t apply for this,” you said tightly.
“I applied on your behalf. They accepted instantly, obviously. One look at your marks, your pedigree—”
“Exactly,” you cut in. “My pedigree. When do I get to make a choice that isn’t pre-selected for political optics?”
Her expression cooled by a few hard degrees. “Opportunities like this don’t wait. You’d be foolish to refuse.”
The conversation spiraled quickly with her measured reasoning, your rising temper, and the clink of china as you set your cup down too sharply. In the end she dismissed you with a gentle but immovable, “We’ll speak once you’ve calmed down.”
You left the conservatory shaking, the parchment still unopened in your fist.

You considered skipping but pride shoved you into the Ministry lift at 8:59am. You wore sensible robes you hated, hair pulled back into a ponytail that was giving you a headache, and your heart was still hammering with resentment. But if you had to do this, you would do it well… and spitefully prove you didn’t need your mother to pull strings.
The lift grill rattled open onto a marble corridor lined with signage that said Level Five, International Cooperation. You approached the reception desk, rehearsing a polite introduction. Then you heard a laugh that froze you on the spot.
Haechan was leaning against the counter, chatting easily with the receptionist. He was wearing dark robes, and his hair was slicked back. The receptionist pointed toward a stack of orientation folders, he thanked her with a wink, and turned towards you.
His eyebrows shot up in shock when he saw you, then his mouth curved into a slow smile.
“Well, well. Fancy seeing you here on a Monday morning.”
You gave him a flat look. “What are you doing here?”
“Same thing as you, I’m guessing. Interning because my father thinks letting me rot on a beach all summer would reflect poorly on the family name.”
You raised a brow. “Was this the only department desperate enough to take you?”
“Actually,” he drawled, stepping closer, “Magical Law Enforcement was my father’s first pick but it was too much work so I requested this department specifically.” He tilted his head. “Imagine my surprise when I saw your name on the roster last night. Made this whole endeavor infinitely more entertaining.”
Heat crept up your neck, equal parts anger and something far less convenient. “I’m not here for your entertainment, Lee. Stay out of my way.”
“That might be difficult,” he said, tapping the crest on his folder. “Trade Accords division, same as you.”
Of course. Your mother couldn’t have orchestrated a more ironic punishment if she’d tried. But grateful relief pooled in your stomach anyways. At least you wouldn’t be alone in a sea of strangers, at least the one person who could keep up with you (and rile you up) would be right there. But you couldn’t show that. The whole structure of whatever twisted thing existed between the two of you depended on pretending you’d rather kiss a Blast-Ended Skrewt.
The program coordinator, Ms. Thatch approached you, beaming at you both. “Wonderful! Our Hogwarts pair. Minister Y/L/N spoke highly of you, and Mr. Lee comes with stellar references. You’ll be working together on our project about Portkey Tariff revisions.”
You swallowed a groan, Haechan’s grin only widened.
“Looking forward to our collaboration,” he said sweetly, extending his hand. Ms. Thatch watched, expectant.
You shook it, pretending your pulse didn’t spike when his thumb brushed the inside of your wrist in a silent echo of the waltz from the gala. His eyes flickered with the same memory.
“I hope you can keep up,” you murmured under your breath.
“When have I ever disappointed you?” he answered, squeezing slightly before releasing your hand.
The morning of your first official group session, you found Haechan sitting on the arm of a leather sofa in the Ministry atrium, twirling his wand mindlessly and balancing a croissant on his knee. You approached slowly, arms full of color-coded folders of all the research you’d done already. He looked up, eyes dragging over your thoroughly professional appearance before raising a brow.
“Someone’s ready to storm the Wizengamot.”
“I can’t say the same about you.”
He popped the last bit of croissant into his mouth and spoke through the crumbs. “Relax, this thing’s just a formality. They don’t expect us to have actual solutions yet.”
“I’m not here to coast,” you huffed. “I’m not going to let anyone say I got this internship because of my mother.”
“Of course not. You’ve got enough pressure breathing down your neck without adding my laziness to it.” he replied with a dramatic sigh.
“So you admit you’re lazy.”
“Ah, I'd call it strategic,” he corrected with a grin. “Why waste effort on a rigged game?”
You stared at him, genuinely annoyed now. “Why even be here if you’re not going to try?”
“Because I was told to be,” he said, still smiling but something behind his eyes hardened.
You opened your mouth to press, but Ms. Thatch appeared, waving the two of you over to the briefing room where interns settled around the long mahogany table. Ms. Thatch stood at the front, adjusting her elegant tortoiseshell glasses.
“Welcome back, everyone. Today we’ll outline initial proposals for the Portkey Tariff Revision project,” she said briskly. “I trust you all reviewed the necessary documents in preparation for this.”
You glanced quickly at Haechan, who was leaning back and looking bored in the chair opposite you.
When Ms. Thatch’s gaze landed on you, she smiled encouragingly. “Miss Y/L/N, let’s hear your proposal first.”
You straightened, ignoring the faint twitch at Haechan’s lips, and began clearly, “The current tariffs favor Western European trade. I think we should revise the rates using updated data from underrepresented regions, especially in Eastern Europe and Asia. It would make things fairer across the board.”
Ms. Thatch nodded appreciatively. “Very good, any thoughts?”
Haechan leaned forward, eyes glinting as they locked onto yours. “That sounds good on paper but it ignores our current diplomatic priorities. Adjusting tariffs too quickly risks alienating our key European allies. I’d suggest a phased approach, start with targeted reductions for certain regions while giving our main trade partners time to adjust.”
You narrowed your eyes slightly, feeling irritation rise at the implication that your idea was naïve. “So we just let the imbalance drag on for years while everyone tiptoes around it?”
He tilted his head, annoyingly calm. “No, we just need to be smart about timing. If we push too hard and too fast, we could lose cooperation completely. It’s not just about fairness, it’s about what’s actually doable.”
“Diplomacy requires action,” you shot back, voice sharpening despite your efforts to remain composed.
“When has rushing things ever gotten us anywhere?” he asked with a raised brow.
The other interns glanced between you two with barely hidden fascination. Ms. Thatch cleared her throat delicately. “Passionate debate, but perhaps we can find a middle ground?”
You flushed slightly, biting your lip. Beside you, another intern whispered something like awkward, but you ignored it.
“Well,” Haechan started, “we could try a hybrid approach. Immediate adjustments where the gaps are the worst, but phase in the rest over time. We could also offer incentives like better magical goods regulations for countries willing to work with the new model early on.”
You blinked. It wasn’t a terrible suggestion. It was annoyingly logical. Worse, you’d briefly considered something similar before dismissing it because it felt too cautious. You glanced at Ms. Thatch, whose expression was encouraging.
“…That could work,” you said reluctantly. “As long as we set clear timelines for change and don’t let it get buried in process.”
Haechan gave you a satisfied smile. “Look at that teamwork.”
Ms. Thatch clapped once, pleased. “Wonderful! A joint proposal from Mr. Lee and Miss Y/L/N. Excellent demonstration of cooperation.”
Your face warmed up at her compliments, but you were still annoyed because you'd unintentionally made Haechan look good too. He reclined in his chair again, twirling his quill lazily, with a little smirk on his face.
When the meeting ended, you gathered your parchments quickly, eager to escape the lingering awkwardness. But as you stood, Haechan slipped smoothly into step beside you.
“You’re welcome,” he murmured, leaning slightly toward you.
“For what? Pointing out flaws in my idea?”
“For saving your impulsive approach from alienating half of Europe,” he corrected.
“Why do you act like you care about the outcome now?” you snapped softly.
“You’d be surprised.”
The lift chimed before you could answer. You stepped in first, forcing a slow breath. Haechan followed, positioning himself at a polite distance but still close enough that his body heat seeped through your robes.
The enchanted car lurched upward, then swerved left, then right in its usual nauseating zig-zag. Your boots slid and you lost your balance. Haechan’s hand shot out, pulling you against the solid plane of his chest.
“Careful…” he murmured.
“Thanks,” you managed, the word thin and embarrassingly high.
He released you the moment you steadied, but the imprint of his fingers stayed on your skin. When the doors finally opened on the Atrium, your pulse was thudding so hard you could hear it.
“See you tomorrow, partner,” he murmured, throwing a knowing glance over his shoulder as he exited.
You watched him disappear through the bustling floor realizing it was going to be a very long internship.

The next few days consisted of nothing but research. Haechan seemed more interested in the project after your argument. He claimed he was committed to helping but you suspected he just enjoyed contradicting your findings.
“Page six,” he announced, flipping your draft around. “Your import tariff curve is off by half a point.”
“It is not.” You muttered without looking up.
He leaned forward. “Wanna bet?”
You rubbed your temples, eyes throbbing from going through three decades worth of parchments. “Fine. Show me.”
Haechan stood and bent over your chair, his cologne wrapping around you. He pointed to a neat column of figures, far closer to your face than necessary.
“See?” he murmured. “You adjusted by seven percent, but the 1903 clause moved the baseline to eight.”
“Good catch,” you conceded through gritted teeth.
He straightened, grinning. “Say it louder, the ghosts in the basement might’ve missed it.”
You rolled your eyes, then pressed two fingers to the side of your neck and winced. All those hours of hunching had finally caught up with you.
Haechan’s smirk faded. “You okay?”
“Just sore,” you muttered, rotating your shoulder. “Thanks to someone who insisted we cross-reference three languages and thirty years of footnotes.”
“That same someone happens to give excellent massages,” he said, sliding behind your chair before you could protest. “Turn.”
You opened your mouth to refuse but then another sharp twinge shot down your spine. So with a reluctant sigh, you let his hands settle lightly on your shoulders.
“Don’t break me,” you mumbled, cheeks heating.
He chuckled, low. “You’ve survived Bludgers to the ribs. I think you’ll live.”
His thumbs worked slow circles into the knotted muscles at the base of your neck. Heat unfurled under your skin; the room seemed to narrow to the quiet rasp of parchment and the steady press of his hands.
“Better?” he asked, voice a breath from your ear.
“A little,” you managed, pulse thudding far too fast for mere relief.
He kneaded deeper, tracing careful circles. Your breath caught as his thumbs slid higher toward your neck. He paused, and you didn’t realize he was leaning in until you felt the faintest ghost of a kiss graze your bare shoulder where your robes had slipped. Your entire body stiffened in surprise.
“Haechan—” The name broke on a gasp as he kissed you again.
“I’ll stop if you want,” he murmured but his lips only drifted higher. Another kiss landed below your ear, teeth grazing a spot that made your breath hitch. He nudged your hair aside, mapping the exposed skin with his mouth.
“What are you doing…” you breathed.
“Just helping you relax,” he whispered, mouth warm on your neck.
You turned without thinking, and his mouth met yours, stealing the rest of your question. Your fingers slid into his hair, tugging him closer.
He stood from his chair and eased you back until you bumped the table. His tongue brushed yours; a low sound caught in his throat when you arched into him. Your hands found the loosened knot of his tie and pulled. He broke the kiss just long enough to trace your bottom lip with his thumb.
“Feeling better?”
You swallowed thickly. “I don’t know.”
“Hmm, we gotta keep going then.” He kissed you again, deeper this time, hands sliding down to your waist and gripping tightly. His hips pressed forward, drawing a sharp gasp from you as you felt the heated line of his body. Your fingers tightened in his shirt, clinging as he kissed along your jaw, teeth gently scraping your skin.
“We shouldn’t—” you breathed, though you tilted your head to grant him better access.
“I know,” he said hoarsely. But neither of you stopped.
His hands slid down to explore the curves of your body through your robes. You felt dizzy, entirely consumed by him. He lifted you slightly onto the table, knocking scrolls and parchment to the floor, but you hardly cared. There was no one around in the Archives at this hour and all you could focus on was him—the fierce heat of his mouth, the soft catch of his breath when you bit his lip.
Your robes shifted upward, exposing bare thighs. His palms skimmed your skin, rough fingertips igniting sparks along your nerves. He kissed you deeply, tongue sliding against yours as you parted your knees instinctively, drawing him in closer.
“Lie back.” He murmured.
Your heart kicked up as you leaned onto your elbows, breath already shallow. His eyes didn’t leave yours, not even as he dropped to his knees, hands sliding up your thighs and pushing them apart with slow pressure. With his other hand he bunched your robes higher, the cool air hitting your skin in sharp contrast to the heat rolling off him.
“Haechan—” you gasped, tensing when his mouth brushed the inside of your thigh.
You hadn’t expected how soft he’d be. How careful. He kissed higher, lips dragging up inch by inch until his breath was warming your core. You squirmed closer, needing him closer, needing somethinv to relieve the pressure building low in your stomach. His eyes flicked up to yours with a silent question in them. You nodded without hesitation.
His mouth was on you in a second. A sharp main escaped before you could stop it, echoing off the dusty shelves. His tongue moved slowly at first, learning you, and then with more purpose. Your hands fumbled for the edge of the table, gripping tight as your breath caught again and again. The sensations were overwhelming, so much better than anything you’d let yourself imagine.
“Fuck,” you breathed. “Haechan—”
“You’re so fucking sweet,” he said between strokes. “Tastes better than I thought.”
“Don’t stop,” you gasped, voice cracking. “Please—”
“Not planning to.” His fingers dug into your thighs as he dragged his tongue in tight circles. “Gonna make you fall apart on my mouth.”
He groaned low against you, and the vibration nearly sent you over. Your hand flew to his hair, tugging, desperate, but he didn’t slow. His tongue worked you relentlessly, fingers digging into your thighs as you twitched.
“Haechan—fuck—” you choked, voice high and strangled as you came hard. Your thighs clenched around him but he still didn’t stop until you started to shudder.
You slumped back, breathing fast. Haechan rose slowly, wiping his mouth with the back of his hand.
You reached for him without thinking, pulling him into a kiss. You tasted yourself on his lips, but you didn’t care. You just needed to feel him.
“Less tense now?” he murmured, his smirk returning, but softer this time.
You exhaled, dazed. “Yeah. But—”
“I know,” he said, pressing his forehead to yours. His eyes slipped closed. “This doesn’t leave the room.”
You nodded, even though everything in you hated the idea. He pulled back just a little, smoothing your robes down, then reached for his fallen notes without meeting your eyes. You fixed your hair with trembling hands, still trying to get your breathing and your thoughts under control.
But you knew the truth, even if you weren’t ready to admit it. This wasn’t just something that happened and pretending otherwise wasn’t going to make it go away.

so... Agatha's worst nightmare takes place in a cabin that Rio clearly recognizes, stylized as a teenage sleepover, where a bunch of queer women make some VERY sexually-coded threats ("punish Agatha," tie her up, humiliate her, etc.)? and then her mother shows up to tell her she was born evil? and Rio's "her mother can't have her" comment? you guys... I am beginning to suspect that Agatha's backstory may have a lot more to do with queer persecution than just dark magic... I'm so Unwell

A DC X DP IDEA #27
They’re the strongest?!?!
Imagine dis…
You know … I read too much humans are space orcs fic, prompts, ideas… etc.
But I still like Danny Phantom and DC…
And I remember that one A03 fic…
…
Another alien invasion is another Wednesday for the JL but it seems like they are quite different. Not only they are known as invaders in the Green Lantern Corps but they also have some sort of code among warriors, they give a chance to the species they are invading to fight back. By having their strongest fight against their strongest. It is not through fighting to the death as different planets have different climates and terrains and thus have their version of the Olympic games but instead of rewarding the participants medals, they were rewarded their planet's safety, but Hal commented that the challenges are too staged, too well known to the invading aliens. Since the ones defending have no idea how to approach the challenges, they always end up losing. Green Arrow commented that since they can just send out the Big Blue boy scout, Hal shook his head as they have to be the same species one planet already tried it by asking aid from another planet and not only lost but the invading aliens got 2 planets, plus they’ll bring it up to the galaxy court system and put them in a tight spot. Of course, Aquaman blinked with confusion and asked if there was a court system for the galaxy.
…
So of course, when the said invading aliens landed on the Milky Way and broadcasted their intentions. The JL already have a team to fight them, of course, we have Batman with his cunning mind, Wonder Woman for her chivalry and strength, Flash for his speed, Doctor Fate for his mastery of magic, and Cyborg for technological skills. Just as they were about to tell the invading aliens that they had already picked their strongest, another announcement popped out. Apparently to even out the playing field they have a new technology to help them pick out their strongest for them. As if they were talking to kids and promptly pressed the bottom to automatically select the earth’s strongest.
The heroes at the space station as well those around the world who were debriefed about the situation a week before are already bracing themselves to be picked, while the citizens around the globe are all now watching and anticipating as not only this a new thing as the majority of their alien invasion they immediately went to evacuation.
Who appeared/ chosen immediately made both sides' jaws drop….
Three?
Only three are chosen…
An adult, a teen, and a child?
A man who wore a blue rental suit with glasses, blue eyes and black hair. Which the Metropolis recognizes as one of their own. Clark Kent, a reporter with fame and reputation on par with the famed Lois Lane. The ideal model of someone who came from the countryside and made a name and life in the big city.
An 11-year-old boy with blue eyes and black hair who wore a red hoodie, faded jeans, and red shoes, in which the city Fawcett knew of. Billy Batson was, a former foster kid on the run until he found his forever home with the couple named Victor and Rosa Vasquez who also fostered a couple of kids, which Billy claims as his siblings. A kind kid who kept doing good around him and his community.
Lastly, a teen, again with blue eyes and black hair wore a faded NASA hoodie, and blue jeans with faint eye bags which was a small town in Amity Park where he came from. Danny Fenton, the only son of the two leading scientists of ecto-biologists in ecotology, the one who realized that one of the two purple-back gorillas is a female thus avoiding extinction.
…
Clark Kent by day and Superman by night knew about the invading aliens. He also knew that he could not participate despite being raised on Earth made him unqualified to join. So, imagine his shock when he suddenly found himself with two earth children in the middle of a large arena with futuristic cameras looking at them. He is now in an internal dilemma; how can he save the two kids, while he tries to save Earth altogether?
This train of thought also passed by the young Billy Batson on the said teen, Billy already knew that Superman was already thinking of saving the both of them. Now his priority is to survive and keep his secret ID a secret for a bit longer.
…
Danny on the other hand has a completely different train of thought, he was just about to reach his room. His beautiful room where his bed is, he had just finished a four-hour exam to bring his grades back up to an acceptable level, 9 continuous ghost attacks, another nonsense quarrel between the observers and he is close to committing anarchy just so he can have the same treatment to Pariah Dark, an eternal sleep in a comfortable looking Sarcophagus of Forever Sleep.
So imagine his surprise when he is suddenly teleported to what looks like an alien ship, Danny would usually be ecstatic but they have interrupted him, he is so close to his bed. He knew that there would be some sort of an invasion as he remembered the bits and pieces from Tucker’s ramble when they last hung out together.
He doesn’t care if aliens invade Earth, but if you come between him and his bed. He will make sure of what he will do to those who disturb him, he will make his fight with his future self and Pariah Dark like child’s play.
…
The Justice League kept on insisting that they had already chosen their fighters and those who appeared in the middle of their arena were civilians, not warriors. But the invading aliens stayed on their decision and immediately began the games.
The rest of the heroes are now scrambling to not only stop the invading aliens but also save the 2 civilians who were randomly selected.
While the rest of the League is now panicking the rest of the world is now in an outrage. Sending out a civilian man and children by the alien's weird machinery.
The Fenton couples are especially rabid as, if there is anything that tops their ghost obsession, it would be their children’s safety. The family of Batson are on the edge of their seats as they worry for Billy.
…
The games begin with an opening of rules and such, as well as an introduction to the alien’s warriors who are big and full of muscles making the Earth team look so tiny.
The first game starts with a simple hunting game with very minimal clues and tools at their disposal to find what they seek. Clark can crack the code on to where to hunt but it is a dangerous environment, Clark discusses it with his teammates on how to catch it, Clark is already thinking if he should reveal himself as a meta with strength but Danny just glares at the man and grabbed capturing tools form the table and sought out the thing they are designated to hunt.
The other team took a glance at Team Earth and warbled some snickers at how they took looking/hunting too fast without any plans and went back to their planning.
Clark and Billy are worried for their other teammate but after a few minutes, they hear a roar some shuffles, and then silence.
Back on earth, most people are horrified a what could be the teen’s fate but when footsteps were heard they saw the teen again scathed, with a few scratches, and a hulking beast all tied up from its muzzle to its tails.
Clark nervously asked, still maintaining his civilian identity, how on earth Danny had caught such a beast. Danny’s only response was, back from where he came a certain ”friend” really wanted “someone’s” pelt on a wall and learned some things while HE was chasing that “something”.
That starts the Danny effect…
…
A tag sort of game as there is a hunter to hunt them down and their objective is to hide longer than the other team, with both Billy and Danny a part, while Billy lasted a few hours with his wit and skills that he honed during his time when he ran from CPS and the police during his days as a foster child, which is impressive itself as he got two of the other team’s members to be captured first before him. Danny outlasted Billy and the rest of the other team won the game in a landslide and gained some bonus points by not only redirecting the hunter and leading them into a false trail or a dead end but also messing with the said hunter without being spotted by him.
Cooking with live and weird ingredients? Clark initially volunteered to do it as he has a stomach of steel being an alien but cannot cook as he has no idea which ingredient is edible as all alien dishes and ingredients come from Krypton and he has to impress the judges who put them in a disadvantage as the judges are from the same race as the opposing team. Danny just shook his head at Clark quickly put on an apron and set to work.
Clark and Billy immediately turned green at the sight as Danny nonchalantly battled the live ingredients, from the meat section to what seems to be the fruit and vegetable section, It is bloody as it is and quite fascinating as it is disgusting. All their years in the Justice League they have seen some twisted and weird things but seeing their third teammate casually stab what looked like an unholy cross hybrid between an octopus and a shark trying to crawl away from the carnage, cleaned the weird animal from the inside out and fillet it.
Of course, they are in disbelief when the judges practically moan the moment, they taste Danny’s dish. Clark and Billy are pretty sure one of the judges is planning to spare Danny and turn him into their chef if the invasion continues, with the way they look at Danny. The judges reluctantly let Danny’s dish win.
Billy reluctantly asked Danny where he learned to cook like that, Danny’s only response was a grumble of a sound that seemed to sound like at home but that cannot be, right?
Trying to survive an onslaught of hypnotic plants native to the alien’s home world, Danny once again won and even began criticizing the plants for how their music was so horrible that it would not even wake the dead.
Play some sort of FIGHTING VIDEO GAME that is popular in 5 sectors in their part of the galaxy, Danny wins and repeatedly shoots the aliens with pure hatred and anger in his eyes, Clark has to physically drag Danny out of the arena to stop his onslaught of firing to the poor guy who was already on the verge of crying.
And so on with the Earth’s team leading COUGH Danny COUGH and demolishing the invading aliens from their games.
After a while the games are done and Team Earth wins with a massive gap to the invading aliens. They returned the three in the middle of the Metropolis and went away without so much a fuss…
Well, expect that one chef in their midst how begged the leader to take Danny and only him with them but the leader is already fearing for his life as the last few games that humans began to be more feral by the second and he was sure he is also a second away from being the one at the other end of his chopping board.
…
Back on earth everyone cheered on the three and began flashing them their camera lights to get a new scoop, and one brave reporter even tried to interview Danny but when people tried to look for the elusive teen he seemingly disappeared.
Clark knew Danny was, sleeping peacefully in the middle of the bushes a few feet away from them, and kept quiet as he was late to realize that Danny was on the verge of a crash like Red Robin is when he pulled something like this when Conner invited him.
…
PS: If someone out there wanted to continue or make a fic about this you are free to do so, don’t forget to tag me though.

Oh I've got a fun idea for a unique way to do a story: it's a fictional wiki page documenting the discoveries of a group of reverse engineers trying to figure out how to hack demons. They've got an API to make contracts with demons.
They've figured out to cast spells out of magical code stored in the blockchain (because of course it's a block chain, it's hell)
There's a list of spells people have found, with comments on what they might do, reports on experimentation, and attempts to decode the "source".
Like there's a subsection with a name that won't render properly because you don't have the proper demonic fonts installed, but it's got the reporting name "shinigami eyes". It's a simple divination spell, so called because it makes numbers appear over the heads of people.
They've got a home-patched version to switch it to arabic numerals for the non-hackery who can't read demonic numerals (they're base 6, of course), and they've been slowly brute forcing the different stats they can query.
The first success was a number that represents the number of days it's been since you've visited a library. Apparently that's one of the statistics stored in your the soul! And weirdly, it counts down? The spell has to query the per-person LIBRARY_THRESHOLD and then subtract from it the LIBRARY_CURRENT to get the displayed count.
It could even be real wiki: keep expanding it by adding additional pages for in-universe discoveries, like... the time they figured out how you can get test animals to cast spells from their own soul (which, being without original sin, have effectively infinite reserves).
P. S. Okay that one got me so I can't end here: they have a list of animals it doesn't work with. The implication being that some animals DO have original sin, and even better yet: these hellhackers only figured that out by accidentally selling a horse's soul to Beelzebub.

Can I please- PLEASE request like a fluffy Jayce x reader…. I love this man feral as much as the next person but omg he has such good manners and is such a gentleman. Like obviously he’s popular in the academy but I wouldn’t be surprised if people fawn over like one time they bumped into him and he was super sweet about it. My brain can’t get rid of the idea of reader walking through the halls of the academy holding equipment/books- STRUGGLING. The things they are holding are too heavy or too tall for them to see over. When Jayce sees this he just can’t stand for it. When reader thanks him they comment on how sweet he is for helping and there’s just something about the way they said it that makes him need more. Jayce now finds himself glancing around when he should be paying attention to the important conversation just in case he sees them rounding the corner needing his help again. Wet dog coded man I just UGGHH- Sorry if this is boring as fuck I just can’t cook with prompts-
𝐍𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐚 𝐇𝐚𝐧𝐝?
𝐉𝐚𝐲𝐜𝐞 𝐓𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐬 𝐱 𝐑𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫
✰⍣..𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐉𝐚𝐲𝐜𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐨𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐬, 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐚𝐲 𝐢𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐜𝐤𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐡𝐢𝐦. 𝐍𝐨𝐰 𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐧'𝐭 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐬, 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐡𝐨𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮'𝐥𝐥 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐡𝐢𝐦 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧.



The Academy’s corridors always buzzed with movement, especially around midterms. A storm of students swept between classrooms with stacks of parchment, vials, and gear tucked under arms or magically levitating just inches from their shoulders. But even in that organized chaos, you stood out.
Not for anything dramatic—there were no explosions or golden runes trailing in your wake like some prodigious student of Hextech.
No, it was the way you struggled.
The stack of textbooks and equipment in your arms was too tall, teetering as you shuffled along, eyes completely hidden behind bindings and brass. A rolled schematic slipped a few centimeters out of place with every step. One wrong movement and you’d trigger an academic avalanche across the entire main hallway.
Jayce saw you out of the corner of his eye. He had been half-listening to a conversation about research funding—something he should care about. Professors, student body reps, all of them standing around in a little knot in front of the glass exhibit. But when you passed, laboring under a ridiculous amount of gear, your boot catching slightly on the lip of a stair—
He was gone before he even realized he’d stepped away.
“Woah—hey! Let me help with that” Jayce called, already reaching out to catch the top book before it tumbled.
You froze, startled, and then someone was lifting the stack clean out of your arms. Blessed weightlessness. You blinked through the space that had just been an impenetrable wall of pages and polished metal.
Jayce Talis.
Up close, he was even more golden than rumors suggested. Tousled hair, stupidly symmetrical face, and broad shoulders that made you acutely aware of how lopsided your bag was. He grinned, cocky but warm, holding your mountain of items like it weighed nothing.
“You were about two seconds from being buried alive“ he said, amusement dancing in his voice. “This for a project or are you training for a weightlifting competition?”
Your face flushed. “It’s—uh. Both? I mean—no. It’s for my Hex Design course. We have to submit schematics and physical models, and Professor Ghiren doesn’t believe in carts apparently.”
Jayce’s brow rose. “Ghiren? Yikes. That explains a lot.”
You laughed softly, and the sound tugged at something behind his ribs.
“Thanks“ you said, quieter now, but with a weight behind it that didn’t match the airy words. “You’re really sweet for helping.”
Sweet.
No one ever called Jayce that.
Brilliant? Sure. Talented? Absolutely. Arrogant? Frequently. But the way you said sweet—so genuine, almost in awe, like you weren’t just thanking him for help, but surprised by the kindness itself…
It landed somewhere deep in his chest. Settled there.
Jayce blinked, suddenly unsure of what to say. That wasn’t like him.
He cleared his throat. “Yeah, of course. Uh—want me to walk you to your lab?”
You gave a hesitant nod. “Only if it’s not a bother…”
“Not at all“ he said, already matching pace beside you. “You might need backup if Ghiren has you carting any more cursed prototypes.”
⸻
The whole thing took maybe ten minutes. Ten minutes of small talk, of you fumbling with your badge to open the lab door while Jayce carried your work like some personal bodyguard of academia. Ten minutes where he laughed at your commentary about your finicky prototype, and you—well, you smiled like you hadn’t expected him to understand what you were talking about. Like you were used to being brushed off.
When he handed the last of your equipment onto a cluttered table and left you with a casual wave and a “see you around” he told himself it was over. A nice moment. A good deed.
But—
Later, back at a student council meeting, his eyes flicked toward the door every time it opened.
Just in case it was you again.
Just in case you were overloaded, drowning in heavy boxes, needing a hand and smiling at him like that.
It became a pattern. Jayce would walk the long way to class under the pretense of “clearing his head”—but really, it was the hallway where he’d met you. He started recognizing the way your laugh echoed off stone walls, the exact squeak of your lab shoes. Sometimes you passed him in the halls with your head down, still juggling too many things, and his hand would twitch at his side, aching to take the weight again.
He didn’t even realize how obvious it was until Viktor elbowed him during a lecture.
“You’re doing it again.”
Jayce jerked his head back toward the front. “Doing what?”
“Looking for them“ Viktor said without missing a beat, voice dry. “Should I start building you a radar? Something to track when your favorite hallway gremlin is in distress?”
Jayce flushed. “I’m not—! I mean, I’m just—helping.”
Viktor hummed. “Sure. And I’m a seven-foot enforcer from Zaun.”
Jayce tried to ignore him, but it only got worse after the second time you needed help. He’d been in the courtyard, getting coffee, when he saw you wrestling with a crate of raw materials clearly meant for three people.
He crossed the entire quad in seconds.
“You again” he said, out of breath and smiling.
Your eyes lit up. “Jayce! You really are everywhere.”
“You say that like it’s a bad thing” he grinned, taking the crate.
It was dangerous, the way you looked at him after that. Fond. Grateful. You didn’t ask questions, didn’t tease him about being famous, didn’t act like it was some passing favor. Just looked at him, said something like “You’re always so kind to me“ and smiled like he’d done something extraordinary.
Jayce could invent ten new technologies and he still wouldn’t feel as proud as he did in those moments.
⸻
Now, he doesn’t even pretend.
He lingers near the workshop halls when he knows your class is ending. Spends too long “testing” things on the lab floor just in case you walk by.
And when you do—
“Need a hand?”
Every single time, like clockwork. And every time, you let him. Your arms let go of the weight, and he carries it for you like it’s sacred. Like it’s the only thing that matters.
One time, you laugh and say, “You know, I think I’m starting to count on you being there.”
Jayce swallows hard. “Good. I want you to.”
You blink up at him.
“Want me to… what?”
“Count on me,” he says, too soft, too real. “Anytime.”

sorry to be mean again but every time i see someone make a post like this, i'll check out their blog and see beginner-level artwork that has no viable market outside of maybe small rp communities. artists with large social media followings don't just spawn one day with tens of thousands of followers, they acquire them over several years by either making interesting art or being an interesting person and definitely not by whining in the comments section of other artists about how privileged they are. whether or not art is "good" or "worth the money" is subjective, but professional conduct isn't. you are not entitled to a market just because you can draw decently. if you aren't getting any commissions, there are only two reasons: you haven't established a prior audience, or your art just isn't ready to be sold outside your friend circle. there's no magic "exposure" cheat code. that's it.

“What can I get you?” you holler over your shoulder to the new body sitting on an open stool. Quickly stuffing the cash into the register, you turn around with your usual customer-service smile and hand the remaining change to the couple as they gather their things, preparing to leave.
It’s been busy all day, with waves of customers coming and going, but now you’re in that brief lull after the dinner rush, just before the night crowd starts to fill the room. With the peak of the summer season in full swing, business has been non-stop. And tonight should be even more hectic as it’s Friday night.
Walking toward the new guy waiting, you look him over while trying to get a good read. You first notice his glazed-over and slightly red eyes, a trait you easily recognize as a bartender at a popular downtown dive bar. He has a half-smoked blunt hanging between his fingers, somehow making himself look even more attractive.
Next, your vision trails along the black ink covering his tanned skin; a lightning bolt at the corner of his right eye, Fearless scribbled below his left, and a large piece with skulls and roses took up most of the space on his neck. And even though he’s wearing a leather jacket, it’s not hard to guess that his arms and other places are most likely covered by tattoos too.
“Surprise me, gorgeous,” he says, leaning forward with a dangerous smile.
Rolling your eyes at the overused line, you reach for the ingredients you need to mix something this pretentious guy would never order for himself. You do your best to hide your smirk as you grab the bottle of peach schnapps from the sea of other liquors and the orange juice from the cooler near your waist.
His gaze wanders from your curvaceous backside to what you’re making. “Ah, Sex on a Beach,” he notes, as you hand over the cherry-colored drink, with the umbrella and all. “My favorite.” His sparkling eyes lock with yours when your hands touch during the exchange.
“Really? Somehow, I doubt that.”
“Well, that’s fair. Would it be more believable if I said I’m usually more of a Jack and Coke guy?”
“Oh wow, now that is surprising,” you tease. “Who would’ve guessed?”
“Alright, what’s your go-to then? What do you recommend?”
You lean against the counter, pretending to ponder deeply, “I would have to say peanut butter flavored whiskey has my attention at the moment.”
“Fuck that,” he says with another grin that shows off his perfectly white teeth.
Who is this man, and why is he such a stunner?!
“You can’t be serious?”
A smirk grows on your lips as you grab two shot glasses and the bottle of Skrewball. You fill them without looking, a fun bartender trick of yours, keeping your eyes locked onto his. You pass one to him, keeping the other for yourself and lifting it to cheers, “Bottoms up.”
He lets out a sigh, “Here goes nothin’...” His face immediately twists up in disgust, and he sputters after swallowing. “Oh my god,” he clears his throat. “That has to be the worst thing I’ve ever put in my mouth.”
“Oh come on, I’m sure nastier things have found their way between your lips,” you joke, laughing while he finishes the glass of water you also set out for him.
“You have no idea…” he says, playing along.
“So, what brings you to town?” And more importantly, how long are you here for?
“Ah, I’m just here for the weekend with my buddies,” he smiles, before taking a sip of his sex on the beach.
The front door opening interrupts your conversation, and a group of college-aged guys walk in, who immediately wave you down to get their drinks.
“Hold that thought,” you say, eyes drifting back to the door as it opens again for the next group that struts in and joins the guys who are now whistling for your attention. “I’ll be right back, gotta take care of these assholes.”
“Hey, don’t worry about it. When I need another I’ll just whistle for ya.” He smirks, and your insides heat up while you walk away. You don’t know him, but you like him.
Unfortunately, that lovely group kept you busier than you would have liked. By the time you can satisfy them and the girls whose drinks they also bought, the handsome stranger is long gone.
All that remains is an empty glass sitting on top of a napkin with the words, “Thanks for the chat and the amazing sex (on the beach), See you around!” scribbled along with a crisp hundred-dollar bill.
You wonder if you'll ever see him again. The odds are slim, and you try not to let that sting.

The rest of the night flies by, and before you know it, it’s approaching 3 a.m. Much to no one's surprise, you’ve made your entire month’s rent in tips tonight, which is why you love working closing shifts when everyone else would prefer to already be home and in bed.
Bartending is typically an easy job if you like being social. Drunk men are easy to flirt with and the money flows if you can bullshit with them for long enough.
“Have a good night, guys,” you say, waving goodbye to Jenny, the other bartender working with you tonight, and her boyfriend Dino, who also happens to be the bar’s bouncer.
They wave back and say goodnight before turning to walk home together, leaving you to finish locking up.
Your loud yawn is hidden by the low rumbles of a nearby motorcycle, and the exhaustion of the busy night finally hits you. Dropping your keys into your purse, you turn in the opposite direction to head home.
“Calling it a night this early?” a familiar voice says from the darkness surrounding you. You freeze in place, trying to make out the shadowed figure.
“Oh,” you say in relief, after taking a couple of steps closer and seeing the hot guy from earlier. “It's you.”
“I was wondering when you’d get off,” he says, his smooth voice making your skin shiver.
“Aww, have you been waiting this whole time?” you ask, a slight tease in your tone.
He leans casually against his bike, the city lights flickering in his eyes. “Nah, I met up with my friends for a bit. Then realized I forgot to give you something.”
You tilt your head, with a playful smirk on your lips. “Let me guess, your number? Or your name?” Heat curls in your stomach; either one would be a win.
“Maybe,” he murmurs, stepping closer, his gaze trailing over you like a slow caress. “But you gotta work for it.” He swings a leg over his motorcycle and taps the empty space in front of him. “Sit.”
You raise a brow but obey, straddling the bike backward so you're facing him. It’s not like you’re going for a ride, so what does it matter? He doesn’t complain about your positioning. His hands quickly find your thighs, his thumbs tracing slow, intoxicating circles into your skin.
“So…” you exhale, pulse quickening under his touch. “What did you forget?”
His smile turns cocky, and without warning he leans in, his lips a breath away from yours.
“This,” he whispers before kissing you. He claims your mouth with a hunger that leaves no room for doubt and certainly no space for air. His hands tighten on your thighs, pulling you closer until there’s nothing between you.
You can’t believe this is happening, you’re practically straddling a hot stranger’s lap, tangled in a very heated kiss. Even the cool night air does nothing to tame the fire licking at your skin.
Threading your fingers through his thick hair, you tug just enough to draw a low groan from him. Your hips shift instinctively, and the moment you do, a gasp slips from your lips. The deep purr of the motorcycle beneath you vibrates through every inch of your body, teasing that sensitive bundle of nerves through your jean shorts.
He pulls back just enough to smirk, his breath hot against your lips. “Does that feel good, gorgeous?” His voice is low, dripping with sin. “Are you a needy little whore who just has to get off?”
Before you can respond, his strong hand presses against your lower back, guiding you down against the hard metal of his bike. The vibrations intensify, sending a shiver down your spine.
“Grind those hips, baby,” he purrs, his other hand still gripping your thigh. “Show me how needy you are.”
A whimper escapes you as your hips obey, moving with desperate friction, chasing that delicious edge. He leans in, his lips grazing your ear as he whispers filth that only makes the ache worse.
“You’re such a pretty little whore,” he murmurs, his voice thick with desire. “But I think you need to show a little more skin for me.”
He tugs down the scoop neckline of your shirt, exposing the delicate lace of your bra. His eyes darken, admiration flickering in them as he takes in the sight of you.
He leans in, his warm breath ghosting over the fabric before he presses his mouth against it. Leaving a teasing kiss, then another. His tongue traces over the lace, dampening it, before he tugs it down, both layers of fabric pushing your breasts up enticingly. His gaze flickers up to meet yours, and he grins devilishly as he watches them bounce in time with your desperate movements.
Without warning, his lips latch onto the soft peak of your flesh, sucking greedily before biting down just enough to make you gasp. The sharp pleasure sends another jolt of heat pooling low in your stomach. He moves to the other nipple, his tongue teasing you and savoring this moment.
He doesn’t need to hear you say that you’re close; he can feel it in the way your hips stutter against his bike. Your movements growing erratic, more desperate.
He groans against your skin, voice thick with satisfaction. “Come undone for me,” he commands, his grip tightening. His voice is possessive and downright dangerous. “Right now.”
Your body shatters, pleasure ripping through you in the form of an uncontrollable moan spilling from your lips. He holds you close, his lips brushing against your temple as he chuckles, satisfied.
“Good girl,” he murmurs smugly, his voice laced with approval. “That’s it.” He pulls your bra and shirt back up, covering your exposed skin just before a car drives by.
You’re still catching your breath, pulse hammering, when reality crashes back in. “Oh my god,” you whisper, pressing a hand to your face. “I cannot believe that just happened.”
He grins, tilting his head. “Oh, you better believe it, sweetheart.” He lets his fingers trail over your thigh before reaching into his leather jacket, pulling out a small envelope.
“Here.” He holds it out to you, his smirk sinful. “Save a little of that bad behavior for me tomorrow.”
You take the envelope, raising an eyebrow. “What is this?”
He laughs, shaking his head. “Open it later and find out.”
You roll your eyes, but the teasing glint in your gaze betrays your curiosity. “Mysterious and cocky. Dangerous combo.”
“You’re into it,” he counters smoothly, reaching around your body and revving the engine beneath you. The vibrations send a wicked aftershock through your overstimulated body, making you shiver. His pleased smirk deepens. “Time to hop off, baby.”
You bite your lip, still breathless. “All that, and you’re still not going to tell me your name?”
He shakes his head, amusement dancing in his dark eyes. “Show up tomorrow, and maybe I will.”
With one last lingering glance, you slide off his bike, your legs still unsteady as you head back to your car.
He watches you with that devilish smirk, like he already knows you’ll meet him damn near anywhere tomorrow. Just for a repeat of something similar to tonight.
And dammit, he’s probably right.

Everyone told Seokjin that bringing his motorcycle on tour was a bad idea.
It’ll take up too much space. It might get damaged. Some unhinged fan could steal it and sell it for a million dollars.
But none of those reasons had been enough to stop him. Especially when the pro list included making you come undone last night, riding the vibrations of his engine like a damn symphony.
That memory alone? Worth every logistical nightmare.
He smirks to himself, leaning against a wall backstage, eyes scanning the slowly filling venue. Doors had opened thirty minutes ago, and the first opener is about to hit the stage.
But so far…there’s no sign of the pretty brunette that he’s been unable to stop thinking about.
“There you are,” a deep voice says from behind.
Startled, Seokjin turns slightly to find Yoongi, one of the band’s other guitarists, watching him with mild amusement.
“Didn’t think you were the crowd-watching type,” Yoongi adds with a raised eyebrow, stepping beside him.
Seokjin shrugs, trying to play it cool. “Just scoping the energy.”
“Uh-huh. Seems like you’re looking for someone?”
Jin manages to dodge the question when Taehyung, their lead singer, bursts out of the dressing room with a parade of barely-dressed women behind him.
“Dude,” Taehyung groans dramatically, “Where’s the fucking booze? The dressing room’s already dry. Can you believe that shit?”
“Unfortunately, yes,” Yoongi deadpans.
The two immediately fall into their usual back-and-forth, trading sarcastic barbs and wild theories about who drank the last bottle of whiskey. But Seokjin tunes them out.
His gaze is still locked on the crowd, his fingers tapping nervously against his thigh. You’d never confirmed that you were coming tonight, despite him counting on it.
Did you look up the band after opening that envelope? The one he slipped into your hands right before you walked away, while you were still flushed and a little breathless after your little exhibitionist act? The one containing a ticket to tonight’s sold out show, with an all-access pass that gets you the best view inside the barricade, plus allows you backstage.
He wonders if you pieced it together, if you made the connection about who he was.
You two hit it off instantly. It was far more than he ever expected when he stopped by that bar for a quick drink, barely an hour after their tour bus pulled into the venue lot. He’d debated it. Going out without security wasn’t exactly recommended, not with how massive their fanbase is. But it was still early enough in the night before it would be too busy, and surprisingly, no one recognized him.
Not even you. That was the most refreshing part.
You didn’t look at him like he was Seokjin, popular rhythm guitarist of Dark & Wild, the notoriously reckless band that had carved its name into rock history with more scandals than awards. You weren’t starry-eyed over the media headlines, the platinum records, or the chaos they left behind in every city.
You looked at him like he was just a man.
Not a musician, not a rockstar. Just a stranger with a sharp jaw, a dirty mouth, and a bike that made you blush.
You didn’t know he was in the middle of the Can’t Be Tamed world tour, one of the most anticipated events in music, already dubbed by critics as legendary, unfiltered, and unforgettable.
And that’s what made last night feel so real. It was raw and unscripted. Something he hasn’t had the pleasure of enjoying in quite some time.
Now, with adrenaline in the air and the crowd getting louder, he’s wondering if you'll stand out from the sea of faces. Or if you’ll remain hidden at the back of the crowd. He hopes you’ll use your advantage and be right up front. Right below his spot on stage, so he can tower over your pretty frame and show off.
God, he really hopes that’s the case.
As the bass echoes off the walls and stage lights flash when the first band takes the stage, Seokjin can’t help but wonder if last night was the last time he’ll ever see you?
With a quiet sigh, he turns away from the crowd and heads back to the dressing room to finish putting on his makeup and stage outfit. Still, his mind keeps drifting back to you.
His lips curl into a smirk at the memory of your face last night. How gorgeous you looked as you came undone in front of him, bold and unfiltered, grinding against the vibrations of his bike like you had nothing to prove. Damn, you were daring. Something refreshing that he found sexy as hell.
Jin chuckles under his breath, the memory fading as another wave of uninteresting women spills into the room with the company of his other bandmates.

A concert ticket… and an all-access pass? Is this what he’s in town for?
You turn the items over in your hands, reading the details printed in bold ink. Dark & Wild – Can’t Be Tamed World Tour. Your eyes widen slightly. That’s tonight.
You bite your lip, thinking it over.
Dark & Wild. Is that his favorite band? It would make sense, he definitely looks like the type who enjoys heavy guitar riffs and screaming fans. And he did mention he was only in town for the weekend.
But how the hell did he manage to score tickets? You remember hearing on the radio at work that the concert had completely sold out weeks ago.
Maybe he works for the band? A roadie, perhaps? He did have that confident, edgy energy. Like someone who thrives in the chaos of tour life, all the late nights and loud music.
Whatever his connection is, it doesn’t really matter. You’re just excited to see him again for your date tonight. Sure, it was technically just an invitation…but in your head, it counts as a date. And the butterflies in your stomach haven’t stopped fluttering since you opened the envelope earlier.
You can’t even remember the last time you were this excited for something. It’s been forever since a guy made your heart race. And, if you’re being honest, even longer since someone made you come like that.
So yeah, you’re definitely going.
You even decide to dress up more than you normally would for a concert. Not that you like to try hard, but hey, you’ve got someone to impress. Slipping into a black mini skirt that hugs your hips just right, you pair it with a black and white leopard print corset that cinches your waist and shows just enough cleavage to tempt. Then come the knee-high red leather boots that make your legs look a mile long and are impossible to ignore.
You twist your dark hair up into a messy-but-intentional style, securing it with a sharp chrome hair clip that glints under the light. With a swipe of eyeliner and a touch of red lipstick, you take one last glance in the mirror. Perfect timing, because your phone buzzes soon after.
Grabbing your purse, you sigh in an attempt to calm the nerves glittering beneath the surface as your Uber pulls up. The ride is short, or perhaps your mind is just preoccupied with the possibilities of tonight.
After getting dropped off, your heart flutters with each step you make toward the venue doors. The closer you get, the more real it feels.
Once the staff member waves you through after scanning your ticket, your pulse quickens. You’re about to see him again. The mysterious stranger who took one ordinary night and turned it into something wild. You wonder if he’s already arrived, if he’s waiting for you. If his face will light up when you walk toward him.
An hour later, your excitement slowly starts to unravel. The second act is about to finish their set, and there’s still no sign of him. You’ve been scanning the crowd nonstop, but the faces blur together under pulsing lights and stage fog. Though you know you’d be able to sense him.
But he’s not here.
Your stomach knots a little tighter with each passing minute. Maybe he got caught up. Maybe he’s still on the way. Maybe he’s at the bar. Maybe–
You chew your bottom lip, clutching your purse a little tighter.
Maybe he changed his mind.
As a last resort, you make your way toward the security guards stationed at the far left side of the barricade, right by the emergency exit doors.
You’ve been quietly watching from afar as a couple of crew members flash their passes before slipping past security like it’s no big deal. You hadn’t wanted to go that route unless you had to. But now, with no sign of him in the crowd and your hope thinning by the minute, it feels like your only shot.
You hesitate; the idea of being so close to the stage makes you uneasy. Especially when you barely know anything about the headliners who are about to run out. You don’t want to look out of place, like someone who doesn’t belong.
Still, you have to do it. You internally groan as you approach the guards, trying to look casual as you hold out your pass. They barely glance at it before nodding and letting you through. You step past the barricade and find a spot that hugs the left side of the stage, doing your best to stay out of the spotlight.
This side of the barrier is mostly empty. A few photographers are positioned with heavy cameras and media badges dangling from their necks. Past them and off to the right, you spot a small group of women. Probably girlfriends, or maybe groupies, laughing amongst themselves, already at ease.
He’s not here either.
You scan again, just to be sure.
Still, there’s no sign of the handsome stranger.
You’re about to give up and leave, heavy disappointment beginning to settle in. Of all the people to get stood up by, it had to be someone who was really nice, actually funny, and insanely attractive.
Boy, do you know how to pick them.
Just when you’re ready to call it a night, you catch yourself and halt your mood from worsening. Fuck it. Why should you miss out on the show? It’s free, after all. Now that the popular band is about to take the stage, you might as well stay and enjoy the music. It sure as hell beats going home to another lonely evening.
Suddenly, the stage lights dim, and the crowd roars as members start stepping into their places. As the intro of their first song begins, the lights flash back on and the screaming intensifies. That’s when your heart does a little flip, as your eyes fall on him.
Wait.
Holy shit.
It takes a moment for it to sink in, but when it does, you inhale rapidly. Your stranger isn’t a fan or roadie…he’s in the band.
His eyes lock onto yours across the stage, and you freeze, completely stunned by this new information. He smiles, pleased to see you, and then bam. That familiar smirk spreads across his face. He winks next, which makes your stomach flip as the barricade of fangirls behind you scream even louder.
What a fucking tease.
The roar of the crowd, the pounding beat of the drums, and the electrifying guitar riffs all hit you at once. You feel the vibrations from the amps in your chest. As they dive further into their set, something clicks, you actually know some of these songs; sometimes they’d play over the radio at the bar during your shifts. Catchy enough to hum along to, sure, but never quite playlist-worthy. At least, not until now.
Because hearing them live? It’s something else entirely. The sound wraps around you, enveloping you in heat and haze, and you don’t even try to fight it as the music pulls you under its spell.
Your motorcycle-riding, guitar-playing, dangerously handsome stranger moves across the stage like he owns it. Every step, every strum, is perfectly in sync with the rhythm. There’s a swagger to the way he plays, like he knows exactly how good he is. And how good he looks doing it.
Seokjin knows you’re watching him. He loves that your eyes trail him no matter where he moves on stage. He’s an entertainer, after all. He’s used to having thousands of women’s eyes on him. But tonight he only cares about yours.
He sneaks another glance at you.
You’ve let go completely, swaying your hips and dancing without a care. He smiles, he’s maybe even a little awestruck, as he takes in how much fun you’re having. He can’t help but stare like you’re the only person in the room.
And every time your gaze flicks back up to him, he’s already looking.
You lock eyes again and again, holding each other’s stare until he breaks it to look out over the crowd or exchange a nod with another band member. The smoldering glances you share make your stomach do flips and your knees feel a little weaker than you'd like to admit.
You came to this show expecting just to see him. Now you’re not sure how the hell you’re supposed to walk away without wanting more. Without needing to know what it would be like to have one night with him.
Last night was just the preview.
He and another member run off stage, prob to get a water or something, you don’t think anything of it because not even a minute later they're back on stage and starting the next song.
It’s a ballad, and you sway along to the romantic lyrics, when someone suddenly taps on your shoulder.
“Hey, Seokjin sent me down here. Do you have the pass he gave you?”
Seokjin. That’s his name.
You nod and lift it off your neck.
"Perfect. Once the band comes back out for their two encore songs, head over there,” he points toward the other end of the stage, “And show your pass to the security by the stairs. They’ll let you through so you can watch from side stage until the set's over."

Jin can’t help the satisfied grin that spreads across his face the moment he spots you standing side stage, tucked behind a couple of crew members. The lighting casts a soft glow on your face, and for a second, the chaos of the show fades into the background.
He still can’t believe that you’re here.
The band powers through the final encore, leaving the crowd screaming for more as they belt out the last note. After one final strum, Jin tosses a few guitar picks into the sea of fans, flashing a wink to the front row before stepping off stage, adrenaline still buzzing through his veins.
He heads toward you, running a hand through his sweat-damp hair, only stopping when the rest of the guys crowd around him. Peering over their shoulders, he catches your eye and waves you over.
"Come here, I want you to meet everyone," he says, without any hesitation. He gestures to the group of men, each in various states of post-show chaos, shirtless, sweaty, all grinning. “This is Yoongi and Jimin, our other guitarists. Joon plays bass. Hobi and Tae are our lead vocalists—”
“And that,” a new, cockier voice says, cuting off Jin, “Leaves the best for last.”
A tall, inked-up guy with loose dark curls and a smirk that screams trouble steps forward. He extends a hand toward you, “I’m Jungkook. I slam the shit out of the drums…among other things.” He wiggles his eyebrows suggestively.
Jin rolls his eyes so hard it’s almost audible. Jungkook enjoys riling him up, especially in front of a gorgeous girl. His grin only widens when Seokjin shoots him a warning look.
“Don’t mind him,” Jin mutters under his breath, his hand grazing your lower back possessively. “He’s still trying to figure out how to flirt without being a menace.”
You laugh when Jungkook winks at you. “What can I say? I’m a crowd favorite.”
Jin snorts. “Sure, dude.”
The guys chuckle before greeting the other women who walk up to the group. But Jin lingers beside you, eyes never quite leaving your face.
“You looked good out there,” you say, still buzzing from the show.
He smirks. “You looked better.”
“You guys ready to party?” Jimin hollers, already halfway toward the exit with a couple of girls on his arms.
Jin doesn’t answer right away. His hand slides lower, fingers brushing over the bare sliver of skin between your corset top and your skirt. The light touch sends a trail of goosebumps up your spine.
“We’ll meet you there,” he finally says, not breaking eye contact with you.
He hadn’t fully registered what you were wearing earlier. He’d been so caught up in the fact that you were here, he missed the finer details. Now he’s taking in every inch of you; the curve of your hips, the way your corset hugs your curves, especially the flash of thigh above those red boots.
And all he can think about is how badly he wants enjoy you.
Jimin catches the look on Jin’s face and raises an eyebrow knowingly, but he doesn’t say a word. Just smirks, wraps his arms around two women like the rockstar he is, and calls out, “Alright ladies, let’s get the fuck outta here.”
He disappears, leaving you and Jin in your little bubble while the crew begins to pack up around you.
“Come on,” Jin murmurs, leaning closer to your ear, his hand still on your back, “I want you all to myself for just a little longer.”
He pulls you into the dressing room, the door slamming shut behind you before he swiftly locks it. In the next second, your back hits the door with a soft thud, his body pressed against yours.
“So…Seokjin,” you tease, lips curling into a wicked little smile. “Any other secrets you’re keeping from me?”
He chuckles low in his throat, the sound vibrating against your skin as he leans in. “Mmm, no secrets,” he murmurs, eyes dark with need. “But say my name again.”
You obey, your voice dropping to a sultry whisper. “Seokjin.”
He groans softly, like the sound of his name on your lips is something filthy and divine all at once. “Shit, baby. It sounds so good coming from you.”
His hands roam your waist, gripping the curve of your hips like he’s already imagining what they’ll feel like wrapped around him.
“Now that you know who I am,” he breathes, brushing his lips along your jaw, “You understand this can only be a one-time thing.”
You meet his eyes, unbothered by that fact, and your breath hitches as his fingers play with the hemline of your miniskirt.
“So fucking worth it,” you whisper, before crashing your mouth against his, your hands tangling in his hair.
It’s all heat and hunger, there’s no hesitation between either of you.
He presses you harder into the door, pinning you between the solid wood and his firm body. Without warning, he lifts you, and your legs instinctively wrap around his waist.
Jin’s mouth is everywhere; your neck, your collarbone, the soft swell of your chest. His hands slide over the curve of your ass, kneading possessively, before one dips lower. His fingers curl inward, teasing your aching core through the thin fabric of your panties.
You gasp against his lips, moaning softly as his fingers graze right where you need him the most. But just as you start to roll your hips into his hand, he pulls away.
The sound of your whimper is swallowed by his deep groan as he grinds his hips into you. The thick, hard length of him presses right against your center, and you swear your body trembles at the contact.
“Oh my god,” you mewl, head falling back as you feel just how big he is, even through layers of clothing. Your body clenches in anticipation.
“I can’t wait to sink into you,” he growls against your throat, his voice deliciously rough. “You ready for me, baby? Think you can handle all of me?”
He thrusts his hips again, making your breath hitch.
“I bet you can’t wait for me to split you open,” he murmurs, lips brushing your ear. “Stretch you so fucking wide, you’ll feel me for days. Is that what you want?”
“Yes, Seokjin, please,” you beg shamelessly.
That’s all he needs to hear.
He turns, carrying you across the room like you weigh nothing, and tosses you down onto the leather sofa. You land with a bounce, your heart pounding and thighs clenching.
He stands over you for a second, his dark eyes raking over your body below, savoring the way you look spread out and desperate for him.
“Take off your panties,” he commands, “I want to watch.”
You don’t hesitate. Slipping your fingers beneath the fabric, you begin to slide the soaked lace down your thighs. They snag slightly on your boots, but he’s already kneeling to help, tugging them the rest of the way off with a growl of frustration and want.
“Fuck, baby,” he groans, eyes darkening as he takes in the slick glistening between your thighs. “You’re already dripping for me.”
He rises and takes a few steps away, grabbing a condom from a torn-open box on the counter, clearly left out by someone else’s pre-show indulgences. But when he turns back around, what he sees nearly sends him to his knees.
You’ve leaned back into the couch, one arm propped behind you, the other between your thighs. Your legs are spread wide, shameless, your skirt hiked up around your waist as your fingers slowly circle your clit before slipping lower, dipping into your soaked entrance.
“Holy fuck,” he breathes, hand moving to palm himself as you moan and bite your lip, teasing him with a second finger. Your eyes meet his, heavy with lust, and the raw hunger between you thickens.
He pulls his cock free from his pants, and your gaze drops instantly—only to widen at the shimmer of something silver catching the overhead light.
He strokes himself with the same speed as your fingers, letting you see every inch of what you’re about to take. The thick, veined length of him is beautiful, but it’s the four tiny silver beads at the crown of his cockhead, encircling his tip in a perfect ring of piercings, that leave you breathless.
Your core clenches around your fingers at the sight.
He sees your reaction and smirks, lazily making his way back toward you with that same infuriating, devastating confidence, and still pumping his cock as if he has all the time in the world.
“Curious?” he rasps, towering over you.
You nod, lips parted, breath shallow with anticipation.
He strokes the head of his cock once, collecting the bead of precum glistening at the tip. Without taking his eyes off yours, he brings his thumb down to your mouth.
“You’ll find out what they do soon enough,” he murmurs.
Your lips close around his thumb without hesitation, sucking softly. Tasting him, teasing him.
That last thread of Seokjin’s composure snaps. He swears under his breath, the muscle in his jaw flexing as he tears open the condom with his teeth before swiftly rolling it on over his thick, pierced length.
Then, without warning, he grabs your hips and slams into you in one devastating thrust.
The force rocks you back into the cushions, a sharp cry escaping your lips. If it weren’t for the vice grip he had on you, you might’ve been launched right off the damn couch.
“Fuck,” he growls, head falling forward for a moment as he adjusts to your tight, wet heat. “You feel better than I imagined.”
You’re breathless, body arching to take him deeper as the metal beads drag against your inner walls with every slow pull back, sending sparks shooting through your entire core.
Your hands clutch at the edge of the sofa, eyes rolling back as he thrusts hard again.
And just like that, you're ruined.
“You love how I split your pretty little pussy open, don’t you?” he growls against your neck, voice dark and possessive. “No one else is ever gonna compare to me. No one else is gonna fuck you like this. This deep, this hard.”
You let out a broken moan, your entire body trembling beneath him. Words are useless now, your brain is too foggy, too overloaded with pleasure to even form a sentence. All you can do is gasp and cling to him like your life depends on it.
“Look at how much of me you take,” he grunts, pulling back just enough to force your gaze downward.
The sight between your thighs is obscene. His thick, pierced cock driving into you over and over, glistening with your slick. You can see the slight swell in your lower belly every time he bottoms out, a bulge pressing up under your skin.
“Oh my god,” you whimper.
“I don’t even know how I fit,” he teases, panting now, a wild smirk tugging at his lips. “It’s like a goddamn magic trick, huh?”
Then he shifts, just a slight change in angle, but the second those cool metal beads drag across your sweet spot, everything inside you unravels.
Your body arches, a sharp cry tearing from your throat as your orgasm crashes through you like a tidal wave. You clamp down around him, shaking, gasping, crying out his name as he fucks you through it.
“That’s it,” he growls, losing his rhythm just a little as you tighten around him. “That’s my good fucking girl.”
Before your body even has a chance to recover, he flips you over onto your hands and knees, your limbs still trembling from your last orgasm.
His grip is firm, one hand wrapped around your waist to steady your quivering body. You barely have time to brace yourself before you feel the sharp sting of his teeth sinking into the plush of your ass, followed by the loud crack of his palm slapping the other cheek.
“Fuck, look at that,” he groans, admiring the fresh red print blooming beneath his hand and the indents of his teeth on your skin. “You wear me so well.”
And then he’s sliding back in, fucking you from behind with bruising force. The sound of skin slapping against skin echoes off the walls, mingling with your breathless moans and desperate cries of his name.
“Seokjin!” you scream, back arching as overwhelming pleasure rips through you.
He fists a handful of your hair and yanks your head back, hard. Your mouth falls open in a silent gasp.
“Take it,” he snarls, his hips slamming into yours with punishing rhythm. “You love it rough like this, don’t you? Getting ruined like a fucking cock whore. Getting treated like the nasty girl you are.”
The pain and pleasure blur into one intoxicating haze as he brings his hand down on your ass again, another sharp spank that makes your legs shake and your core leak.
Just when you think you can't take any more, you feel his thumb press against your tightest hole, teasing as his cock drives into your soaked center. You whimper, your head dropping forward.
“Gonna fall apart for me again?” he pants behind you, voice strained with the effort of holding back.
You nod frantically, unable to speak, your walls already fluttering around him.
Then it hits you, your second orgasm tearing through your body, wave after wave of overwhelming ecstasy leaving you breathless and undone. Your vision goes hazy, your mouth falls open in a silent scream, and your entire body quakes under the weight of it.
You collapse forward, barely holding yourself up as your slick walls flutter wildly around him, clenching down like a vice.
“Jesus,” he grits out, his control unraveling in the heat of your orgasm. The way your body grips him, so fucking wet and perfect, drives him straight to the edge.
With a deep growl, he slams into you one final time, hips flush against your ass as he spills into the condom. Pulse after pulse of release torn from his body, as he holds you there, buried deep, his head thrown back as you milk every last drop from him with your trembling cunt.
You’re both breathless, your bodies slick with sweat and every nerve on fire from the intensity of it all.
For a moment, neither of you move, slowly coming down from something so fucking feral it barely feels real.
“So,” he says with a lazy grin, still catching his breath, “If I leave tickets for you next time we’re in town…you want a repeat?”
You stretch out beneath him, lips curling into a playful smirk. “Only if you promise to bring your motorcycle again.”
His eyes darken instantly, with a wicked glint. “Mmm, that’s a damn good idea.” He leans in close, his breath warm against your ear. “Next time, I’m making you come twice before we even think about getting off that bike.”
You bite your lip, pulse quickening. “Sounds like a plan.”
He grins smugly. “Nah, baby…that sounds like a date.”

Leander theory : the truth behind his eyes
I didn't have the time to write that post previously and it's a long overdue, so let's go.
I think I cracked the code about Leander, or at least found a lead that is totally probable thanks to the new elements in the update and people's comments on MC's behaviour around Leander.
Tldr : he charms/hypnotizes people with his eyes, rendering them obedient and oblivious to any harm he could cause. More below the cut !

Let me elaborate.
What first made me think about this theory is MC's behavior around Leander. Even in version 1.0, MC has been guarded about their curse, adamant on avoiding the subject, if not very reluctant even under direct threat (Ais). But that melts away almost instantly around Leander. First, they reveal the information without much difficulty. Then, they show him their hands. Even if they are a bit nervous, they do seem less reluctant than with the other characters.
In version 2.0, this is accentuated by the additions and modifications in the Leander segments, especially the branching after the tavern scene. Leander lures MC in the guest room by claiming he got information reguarding their curse, guiltrips them and faint wanting to leave to give them some space. Then we have the whole moment with Leander and MC being horny as hell, and finally Leander leaves. After he left, MC remembers why they followed Leander here in the first place, as if regaining some clarity of mind.
It's evident MC's behavior is affected around Leander in a way that surpasses simple trust. Leander is a mage, a powerful and skilled one at that. He could have totally put MC under a spell to get what he wants. And to push that, I'll argue MC is not the only victim and that he does that with pretty much everyone but mostly with outsiders (Mhin and MC). With this in mind, I then thought about how and when Leander could have charmed his victims.
It could have been with the flower he gives MC upon meeting him, but we can decline to take it. Then I thought about the "protection" spell he uses before taking MC's hand, but MC trusted him almost blindly before doing so.
That's what led me to the main conclusion and what has been under our nose this whole time : Leander charms people via his eyes. His "monster" form shadow and the teal green spec in his eyes of the same color of his magic (and broach + belt) could be indicators that at least something is up with his eyes.

Alongside the newly reinforced snake imagery, it is clear that his natural charms alone is not enough to tear down MC's guards in the span of 24 hours.
I could be wrong about the eyes as all the LIs got their eyes white in the monster form shadows, but Leander only has his eyes in white while the rest of the cast got other details in white (Ais' tattoo, Vere's chains, or other details to be able to make out some shapes). If not his eyes, I bet on his presence alone being enough. Could be via a spell, a potion, an artifact, a pact (why who though ?) anything.
That's my take on it, it's just a theory and tbh if I'm wrong I don't mind and I think I'm partially correct or put my finger onto smth >:) We'll see with the full game how close I was lmao
Thanks for reading ! ✨

riddle and how he views his mother
Consider this a part 2 to this analysis! A while ago, I was asked "Why doesn't Riddle resent his mother?", which is the question that the original analysis answers.
Recently, Riddle's Night Sky's Chiffon vignettes were released into the world, and it contains a lot of interesting details that expand on how Riddle views his mother. I wanted to commentate on this new information and how it supports what I said in the original post.
The topic of mothers comes up in these vignettes. Deuce, who was talking about his own mom, quickly realizes that it's awkward to mention parents in front of Riddle, so he apologizes. To his surprise, Riddle is super chill about it and tells Deuce he doesn't really mind, so be at ease. And then Riddle states it outright, clear as day: "I'm grateful to my mother."

Deuce follows up with a comment to the effect of, "It looks like moms are strong in every family", to which Riddle actually agrees.
Riddle credits his mom for his ability to do many things in the present. For example, he took gymnastics classes so he was able to pull off the ballet in this event (one of the Princess in the Tower's required activities). He also learned social dancing, which comes in handy for formal events such as Ghost Marriage and Glorious Masquerade. Most notably, Riddle excels in academics--he is noted as being top of this grade multiple times, has prevented any students in Heartslabyul from dropping out, and is able to memorize 3 magic engineering/coding textbooks in only just a few minutes + helps to keep Malleus at bay in a recent main story update--something which no one else would be able to achieve. He's also able to cast powerful spells in quick succession as the result of his magical training from a young age. It can be argued, then, that despite Mrs. Rosehearts' methods, she did ultimately instill many useful skills in Riddle to set him up for success as a mage. He recognizes the value in that, and acknowledges her for it. There is always a part of Riddle that thinks he is a "better" person today because of his mother's discipline, even if he is just now starting to question her methodology.
He is disciplined and capable because of his upbringing--this cannot be denied. And Riddle can't find it in himself to resent his mother because of that. This woman raised him and taught him all these things because she genuinely believed this was what was "best" for him. How can he hate her for that? For just doing what she thought was her "best"?
I also want to point out how Riddle and his mother are shown to be "one and the same" in these vignettes. Later on, Riddle expresses that he wants to send out a mass email commanding all the Heartslabyul students to prepare at least 10 lanterns each to release in the night, or else there will be punishment awaiting them. He worries that the mobs won't be motivated to help without the threat of a punishment looming over them. Sure enough, when Trey and Cater pass on Riddle's order, the mobs complain and talk about how much nicer it is around Heartslabyul without the dorm leader breathing down their necks. However, the two third years then remind the mobs that while Riddle is strict, he HAS helped them. He provides test notes, edits essays, and hosts study sessions for his dorm members. The mobs eventually realize they need Riddle around, so they end up pitching in and getting those lanterns.
THIS IS PARALLELING MRS. ROSEHEARTS. Like his mother, Riddle is very strict with those under his care--but it comes from a place of his "love", from wanting to see them succeed. And, like Riddle is with his mom, the mobs cannot detach themselves entirely from their dorm leader. I know that book 1 primarily paints Riddle adopting his mother's attitude as a toxic thing (and it is, when it gets out of control)--but with moderation, it also has its useful applications, as we see in these vignettes.
Now let's not get it twisted; none of this erases the absurd restrictions imposed on Riddle, her intense rage, or the child neglect/abuse committed. What I am saying is that she is a person too, not a blob of all things bad in the world. She deserves grace and to have her positives acknowledged too--and this naturally feeds into Riddle's complicated feelings about her, especially now that he sees her bad sides... something he never really faced before.
Riddle's vignettes end on a hopeful note, though I don't know if the characters themselves realize the implications of it. The final scene takes place with the lantern-filled sky, and Deuce wondering why the Princess in the Tower grew her hair out so long to begin with. Was she planning to escape all along? But Jack explains that the witch that kidnapped her wanted the Princess to grow her hair long. The Princess in the Tower obeyed this wish, even though maintaining such long hair is a hassle. To this, Deuce comments that she really must have seen the witch as her mother. Riddle then says that no matter how precious the hair was, it's still cumbersome. "She can't even walk like this." AND THEN RIDDLE JUST CASUALLY SLICES HIS HAIR OFF, NO HESTIATION... ONE CHOP. Deuce panics because the ends look ugly, but Riddle simply replies there's no need to worry, "I do not need long hair anymore."
DO YOU REALIZE WHAT THAT MEANS???????? ? ??? ? ????? Long hair is the symbol of Rapunzel's oppression. It is something she maintains because her oppressor, Gothel, told her to. But long hair is also what ultimately frees her from the tower. The same is true of Riddle. He largely does what he is told to by his mother, believing that she is always correct. Riddle almost doesn't leave the library (despite the long hair being an easy way out) because "I've decided. Never again." He's so close to locking himself up in that metaphorical tower and not allowing himself out for fear of incurring her wrath for disobeying. And in the end, Riddle is still able to leave that tower. He so easily slices his long hair, something which prevents the Princess--HIM--from walking. But in severing that thread, CUTTING THE HAIR, he is freeing himself and finding a way to walk independently.
Maybe Riddle can't do it today (as he so clearly still respects his mother and all that she has done for him)... maybe not tomorrow, either... but someday. Someday...!! Someday, Riddle will be able to "cut his long hair" and walk on his own 😭 and then his life will truly "begin"... Why this nuanced writing get shoved into a vignette and not in the Wish Lantern event story itself, I'LL NEVER UNDERSTAND--

The line that Solas won't cross
I know some people feel that Solas is a hypocrite for using blood magic on Rook, given his feelings about freedom. But as a matter of fact, I think that in both Inquisition and Veilguard Solas is pretty consistent about honoring people's freedom, in the specific sense in which he understands that term.
Here, it's important to remember that Solas' understanding of freedom is strongly influenced by his earlier experiences as a spirit: for him, freedom is about being free to pursue your own purpose. In Inquisition, he repeatedly comments on how being 'twisted against their purpose' is a particularly bad outcome for spirits. And in Veilguard, this is his justification when Felassan asks him about his treatment of the chaos spirits - they died, yes, but they did so while fulfilling their purpose. This shapes his views on freedom for embodied people as well: for example, he hates the Qun because it controls people's thoughts, thus preventing them from formulating and fulfilling purposes of their own.
This understanding of freedom is sacrosanct to Solas, and despite all the morally problematic things he does, this is a line he won't cross: he doesn't twist people against their purposes. Of course we all know that Solas uses people, but he does this in a specific way: he doesn't manipulate people into doing things they don't really want to do, rather, he finds ways to align their purposes with his own.
We see this very clearly in Inquisition. Solas is using the members of the Inquisition to fight Corypheus, yes, but this is something that they already wanted to do. Solas doesn't pressure anybody into acting contrary to their own volitions. And importantly, as soon as Corypheus is defeated, he leaves, because his purpose is no longer aligned with the Inquisition. He could have stayed on and tried to use some of the Inquisition's resources in service of his own cause, but he doesn't do that because it would require twisting the Inquisition members against their own purposes, and that's a thing he will not do.
And strikingly, Solas sticks to the same principles with Rook. He could have used the blood magic connection to try to manipulate Rook into helping him take down the Veil, or to convince Rook that it would be a good idea to release him from the prison. But he doesn't do that; instead he just uses the simulacrum of Varric to encourage Rook to do something they already wanted to do, i.e. fight the Evanuris. Although Solas does deceive Rook, he never twists Rook against their own purpose. And although Solas does ultimately physically imprison Rook, he nonetheless respects their freedom in the sense in which he himself understands that word; he imprisons their body but not their mind, which to him would be a much greater wrong.
I'm not trying to make excuses for Solas' behaviour here. What he does to Rook is hurtful and unkind, and he's too focused on his own understanding of freedom while disregarding the ways that other people might think about this issue. But I do think it's an interesting aspect of Solas' character that he has a clear sense of his own moral code and he sticks to it. People sometimes portray Solas as a person who will do anything and betray anyone in service of his goals, but that isn't really true: there's a line he won't cross, and he's very consistent about that. It's a clever feature of the way he's been written, and I appreciate that consistency!
