~ solomon ; obey me

✧˚ · . S Y N O P S I S : You ask Solomon to take you to the beach to clear your mind of sorrow

‧₊˚ c o n t e n t s : gn!mc, angst, unrequited love

‧₊˚ a / n : one of the things Solomon and I have in common is that we hate the beach… coincidentally i was listening to The Neighbourhood’s “The Beach” when i saw Minx posted her event info lol so this one’s based on that song!

‧₊˚ e v e n t : thanks @solomons-poison por mentioning me in the replies, i don’t think i would’ve seen it otherwise 😵‍💫 this is for her summer event so if you write or do fanart feel free to join!

Solomon rested his head on the palm tree’s trunk and closed his eyes. The annoying smell of the salty water filling his senses, the unstable sand under his shoes swiftly rearranging as he tried to find a comfortable position to forget where he was at. It was nighttime, so at least he couldn’t complain about the intense heat and the burning feeling of the sun on his skin. The beach brought him memories, bad memories. And this time, even though he was with you, it didn’t change. It was bittersweet now, the way your laugh reached to him from the shore and he had to remind himself he was only here at your request, to see you happy, and yet he was miserable in exchange.

“Solomon!” his eyes opened lazily at your call, you were walking towards him, long white t-shirt drenched, you legs glistening with ocean water.

A knot began to pull from his throat, how could you look so painfully beautiful? He wished he could smile as genuinely as you did, but he offered his usual fake teasing smirk in return.

“Ready to go?” his arm slightly moved towards you to offer back the sweatpants you had discarded before running towards the water.

“What?! No way!” you laughed “won’t you join me in the water?”

“No, I don’t think so” he pulled a face “I dislike the ocean”

“You do?” your widened eyes pulled at his heart’s strings, you looked so pretty when innocent surprise painted your expression “I didn’t know that, if I had known I would’ve asked you to go somewhere else”

“You wanted to come here didn’t you? Something about the beach helping you to clear your mind” he smiled again.

“Right” you didn’t smile back, instead he saw a subtle wince of pain behind your eyes.

Solomon knew why. You missed the brothers, you missed Simeon, Diavolo, Barbatos, Luke… And he could tell you missed that man your heart longed for. So once again that knot in his throat made it difficult to produce sound. You were there in front of him, so close to him he could reach for you, for your chin, for your lips. He wished he could wipe that sorrowful expression off your face, he wished his presence alone would make you shine like you did with him.

Quick and sudden blinks chased away your sad feelings, replacing them with a fake smile.

“Yes, thank you for bringing me here, I find the beach to be a healing place. Should we go somewhere you like next? The sun will come out soon so I think maybe if you wanna go for breakfast there must be some places open, right?”

Your friendship came to him as warm and timid as the sunrise in the horizon behind the water. He had brought you here for comfort and even when you still felt sad, you wanted to go somewhere of his liking next?

He sighed, pretending to get ready to leave and not because of the pain he was feeling in his chest. You were a good friend, so much better than he could ever be. How could he offer a genuine friendship when everything he did he did it out of love? Lying to you was easy, he did it everyday. Saying you looked funny when you concentrated so you wouldn’t think he stared at you for other reasons, guiding your hands when doing spells to correct you instead of just because he longed for the touch of your skin. But how much of a good friend could he be if lying was an everyday occurrence?

“Didn’t you say you didn’t wanna leave? We can stay a bit more if you want, I don’t mind”

“Really?” you laughed, his eyes soaked up on your fleeting happiness as much as he could “you’re such a good friend, Solomon, we don’t have to stay just because of me”

You turned around to watch the sun rise slowly. Solomon bit his lip to refrain from sighing again, watching your silhouette against the first rays of sunshine and the beach laughing at him once again, complimenting your beauty as to shove in his face the one person he wanted more than anything and couldn’t have.

“Of course I am, I’m the best of friends. Why don’t you run for a quick dip in the water before we leave?”

Sunburn (Obey Me!)

━━━━━━━━━━ ✦ ━━━━━━━━━━

My ~personal~ rankings of most to least likely to get sunburned at the beach!

»Characters: Demon bros + Dateables

»Tags: Rankings, Headcanons, Humor

»Notes: Made this for @solomons-poison summer event! Go check it out! ♡

1. Mammon

No matter how many times you tell him to put some on, he refuses. "It looks funny and I hate the feelin' !" Hours later he regrets it of course and whines about how much it hurts and how it'll affect his modeling gig tomorrow. "I would've helped rub it all over you!"

"W-well why didn't ya say that sooner!"

2. Levi

Actually applies sunscreen but it wasn't enough for the shut-in. He's use to swimming around in his room but he underestimated the wrath of the sun. "Well I'm gonna be in the water most of the time so it's fine!" ...Now he's crying in his room about how normie activities are always a bad idea.

3. Lucifer

This responsible™️ demon put on some sunscreen and laid under an umbrella. He admired the ocean view and shared quite a few drinks, laughing and chatting with Diavolo and the others. He fully relaxed! Once they left to do other activities he grabbed a book and fell asleep...unaware of the Anti-Lucifer Leagues plans. He woke up sunburned with no umbrella in sight. 😔

4. Simeon

Bless this angel, really. All he ever wants to do is help. While helping Luke and some of the others apply some sunscreen, the poor angel forgot about himself and everyone forgot to offer as they one by one went to partake in beach activities! (*shakes fist* a national outrage I say!!)

5. Belphie

Was too lazy to apply any but Beel and Simeon helped. Like Levi, it wasn't enough through out the day though. After a particularly long nap in the sun, he too woke up sunburned. (To Lucifers amusement of course lmao)

6. Beel

Might've sampled the sunscreen because it smelled really good. Small sunburn. Occasionally forgot to reapply and the poor thing should've gotten a stronger spf. He also missed a few spots when he tried to apply it himself when Belphie or Simeon were unavailable. 😔

7. Satan

Gets only a tiny sunburn, nothing too noticeable. He would forget to reapply every so often due to being so absorbed in his book but his sunscreen was a particularly good one, perfect for his skin type.

8. Diavolo (Everyone from here on is tied)

Barbatos would never let Diavolo get sunburned. He had the Little Ds help apply sunscreen to the giant demon before they left for the beach. If it weren't for Barbatos though, the demon would forget to apply some through out the day due to having fun.

9. Barbatos

Failing to apply sunscreen to Diavolo or himself would tarnish his name, it'd be unbefitting for a butler and he would never be able to forgive himself. He is meticulous on how it's applied and when and only uses the absolute best he can get.

10. Luke

There is no way Simeon (or anyone) would let the young angel play around without sunscreen. They make sure to apply every half hour & keep him hydrated. He complains about it of course and just wants to go back to play in the water or make sand sculptures.

11. Solomon

Asmo took his chance and helped the sorcerer apply sunscreen. There was not an inch that was not properly applied and he made sure to re-apply through out the day. 🤭 If it weren't for Asmo though, this man would burn and brush it off.

12. Asmo

You will never see this man sunburned. It does not exist. He brought all different types of sunscreen, re-applies, and still limits his time in the sun. The day he gets sunburned is the day he never gets seen again.

Who would you help apply sunscreen? 👀

Hello Violet! For the Beach Event, may I request watching a meteor shower on the beach with Gilbert? Thank you!

A/N: an entry for @solomons-poison 's Summer Fun event. Here you go @atelier-the-atelier 💜

Gilbert x f reader

Mildly spicy content

WC: 1239

The sky above is an endless canvas of midnight blue, bespeckled with thousands of glowing silver stars. Before you, the sea stretches out to meet the sky, arms wide in welcome, ocean waves singing a soft song of reunion. The water kisses the shore, over and over again, white foam kisses that tickle your bare feet as you stand there, staring out into eternity. The night wind whips your clothing against the soft curves of your body and gently pulls your hair from its pins, as if doing Gilbert’s bidding, as if it knows how he likes you best: nothing restrained, nothing held back from him. You turn to look at him over your shoulder, to where he is propped up on his elbows beneath the sand dunes. Even from here, you see the intensity of his crimson eye as it takes you in, frames you within the beauty of the night, engraving the moment into his mind so it may forever be called forth when he wants it.

You gather your skirts in one hand and run back to him, your feet sinking into the soft, fine sand. He opens his arms and you fall into them, laughing at the thrill of being in his embrace, away from the responsibility of ruling, away from the austere walls of the palace, the tall forests and bare hills of Obsidian. You have both worked so hard, building up the country, building up a group of nobles you can trust, building relations to other countries, including your own Rhodolite. It was, in fact, after you both had stumbled into bed on the wrong side of midnight that Gilbert took one look at your tired face and announced he had an idea.

A small, private island off the coast of Tanzanite had turned out to be a brilliant idea. No one else on the island, no one needing anything from the imperial couple. No distractions, demands or concerns. Just you, Gilbert and the beauty of the beach, the blessing of solitude.

You turn within the circle of his arms, reaching up to brush his hair away from his forehead. God, you love him. A love so expansive that it sometimes feels like it might just break you into pieces, grind you into dust and carry you away into the ether. Gilbert smiles slowly, pulling you closer.

“Yes, Häschen? Is there something you want to say?”

You shake your head, instead leaning up to kiss him. By now you’ve kissed him a thousand times. You’ve run your fingers over every inch of his skin, tasted him in a hundred ways, fallen asleep next to him countless nights. And yet each time you press your lips to his, it feels new, another blossom sprouting in the arboreal shelter of your love for him. He shifts you both, laying you down onto the blanket, already pressing his body against yours. His cool fingers kiss your bare skin as he skims the scooped neckline of your dress, laughing huskily against your mouth as you try to arch up into his touch.

“Ah ah…..Geduld, meine Liebe.” Patience, my love.

You sigh your frustration as his hands run along the shape of your body, over your clothing, where layers of fabric suddenly feel torturous against your warm skin. You ache for the soothing coolness of his touch. And he knows it. He drops his head, white teeth nipping at the sensitive skin of your neck. One hand pins your shoulder down, the other stretches, expertly catching the damp hemline of your skirt and slowly drags it upwards, the backs of his fingers purposefully feathering over the bare skin of your calf, your knee, your outer thigh.

“Gil….” His name is seized by the wind as it leaves your trembling lips, carried away towards the black ocean and glittering sky. He bites the soft skin of your shoulder as his hand slides across the top of your thigh, fingers curling possessively inwards. Your eyes close, shutting out the world, as your body winds itself tighter, a mechanism in the hands of an expert engineer. One who knows exactly which minute adjustments of hips and fingers, teeth and tongue, will have the greatest effect.

You gasp as he traces filigree on the inside of your thigh, his touch teasing, cloyingly close to where you need him. Your body twists, trying to right the course of his fingers but they remain where they are, the maddeningly sensitive skin on the inside of your thigh, no matter how you move. 

Your laugh is fluttering ribbons of frustration and admiration, your eyes opening with the intention of catching his gaze and telling him to stop being so cruel. 

You gasp again but not because of your husband.

“Look…..” You grab his shoulder, pulling him away from your half open blouse and the rose-red kisses he’s been painting across your skin. Had he managed to undo the buttons with his mouth? Or his other hand? Or had he simply torn it? You have no idea. And right now it doesn’t matter. He looks up at you, his beautiful face flushed with desire, questions in the crimson depth of his eye. You point up at the sky. 

Velvet black is alive with light as several silver-white orbs streak across the sky, trailing long, glittering tails behind them. They burn white-hot as they fall like celestial beings falling from the heavens, aflame with holy light. Gilbert reaches up, removing his eyepatch, his gaze fixed on the sky.

His lips part in awe at the sight but he is quiet, drinking in the sight as the cosmic flames continue along their shimmering arc. He reaches out a hand without looking, knowing you'll take it and you do, threading your fingers through his as you watch alongside him in perfect quiet. Only the waves provide a soft accompaniment to the orchestral beauty of the meteor shower.

The only thing more moving than the living artwork of the sky is the feeling of experiencing it together. You glance away to watch him, his face another window to the divine, its beauty as heart-stopping as the meteors. He has gilded your life in silver, wrapped you within the tangles of his gossamer heartstrings and raised you into the light of a love brighter than any star.

The last shimmer fades from the sky, leaving only the memory of its radiance behind. You squeeze Gilbert's hand gently. He turns and he smiles, his eyes glowing like stained glass, backlit by the light of deepest affection. He tugs you towards him, clasping you against his chest as you fall back together onto the sand.

"I love you," you murmur in a voice smooth as sea glass, soft as the night wind.

Gilbert brushes your hair away from your face, his hand lingering behind your ear.

"Ich liebe dich auch," he answers in the language of his heart. 

Love, like the eternal movement of the sea, passes between you, carried by your words, tangible in your touching.

And then he shifts, rolling until he is above you, blocking your view of the night sky and filling it with something even more beloved.

His lips touch yours, his fingers wind through your hair, and you close your eyes once again, your heart radiant with a desire as bright and beautiful as any cosmic wonder.

HC: Beach Excursion

Premise: In which the Princes all go to a beach in Benitoite, by some strange twist of fate. Included Characters: Leon, Jin, Yves, Licht, Nokto, Chevalier, Clavis, Luke, Gilbert, Silvio, Keith, Rio, Sariel

Aye, the other idea I had for @solomons-poison 's Minx's Summer Fun Event ! A little silly, a little cute, just in the mood ~ Far longer than initially expected.

Content Warnings: food mention

Leon: It somehow happens that he spends the majority of his time helping lost children find their mothers. It also somehow happens that each person he helps wants to repay their debt by helping him. By the end of the day, Leon is followed by a flock of mother-child pairs -- enough to form an entire volleyball team. They decide to host a tournament and Leon ropes his faction into participation... Long story short, they suffer an overwhelming defeat. As losers, they buy everybody ice-cream.

Jin: Lifeguard. Honest to God, genuine lifeguard. No ulterior motives present. However, there is a certain issue with him fulfilling the role -- women (and men) who pretend to be drowning just so that he has to go and "save them". (Some do indeed start to drown after overestimating both their swimming and acting abilities.) He's one of the three reasons behind their loss at the volleyball tournament. Jin doesn't know the rules, can't figure out a smooth way to inquire about them and by the time he has pieced them together... the children have started to win. He can't bring himself to turn the tables on them, and purposefully plays poorly.

Yves: He burns. Oh, he burns so fast. SPF 50 is barely enough. He and beaches are just not meant to be -- Yves somehow finds himself dragged out into the ocean the moment he enters the water (Jin rescues him), steps into quicksand (what is quicksand doing here?!; it's not in his job description, but Jin rescues him), and then a pesky seagull tries to steal his earring. Licht tries to make him feel better by purchasing ice-cream for the both of them, but... they get separated soon enough. He's one of the three reasons behind their loss at the volleyball tournament. Do you think he manages to step into quicksand just once? Ha. And this sand is very, very quick. (They need a second ball after that. And a second Jin. And Yves.)

Licht & Nokto: They initially have some freedom of movement (that's when Licht buys Yves ice-cream), however, that joy is short-lived. They become confined to the shade provided by the umbrella fairly soon, although for different reasons. (Licht does not want to dress down from his usual attire, and Nokto... has had his sunscreen stolen by a certain someone). However! Worry not! Clavis comes to the rescue and builds them the most perfect sand mansion ever -- with an appropriately Lelouchian twist. Quite honestly, it is a marvel to behold. Since it gets confused for a haunted castle, Silvio starts charging the entry fee. Luckily, Clavis was wise enough to dig out a sizeable ditch around the castle walls. The legend says that is where Nokto's ex-lovers roam free... Licht's one of the three reason behind their loss at the volleyball tournament. He plays decently. The real issue is the fact that children compliment him too much, so... He can't take it. He just can't.

Chevalier: He burns. Oh, he burns so fast x2. He opts to rest in the shade of an umbrella and to read a book in peace... Not that Clavis is particularly fond of the idea. In fact, he knows what would surely cheer his insufferable older brother up! Chevalier barely manages to shield his book from the assaulting water. He proceeds to chase Clavis into the ocean. He ends up being pulled under precisely one (1) time. Only because he did not want to be stung by a jellyfish. He does have mild sunburn on his back afterwards. He will not admit to that, however.

Clavis: Well, if he isn't having fun! He builds sand castles (monstrosities that later become famous landmarks; he somehow managed to invent waterproof cement while at it), turns the water purple (and sparkly; it somehow attracts dolphins and so they swim merrily near the shore), collects jellyfishes (for research; they somehow end up inhabiting sweet water sources near Rhodolite's border with Obsidian afterwards), and even manages to play with his older brother! Who would have thought! Clavis is pulled under the water at least 10 times. However, he is prepared for that -- he doesn't even need to stand up. His life vest (another one of his inventions) does all the work for him! Which... is very fortunate, considering Jin is busy playing volleyball. And getting himself out of very quick quicksand. Some odd force compels him to slap Chevalier's back in the days that follow. However, Clavis never caves in.

Luke: He mostly naps in the sun (Clavis does prank him by writing some Lelouchian script in sunscreen over his back. However, it's so deformed only Chevalier can decipher it, and he's not telling anybody what's written there.) He has a good serving of honey ice-cream. He goes for a swim. And more than anything, he's glad that Sariel didn't make him stay back in Rhodolite to make up for all the study sessions he has skipped. (That being said, he has been forced to take books along... Books... that... are... somewhere. Probably.)

Gilbert: Listen, his outfit just doesn't work out in this weather. But has that ever stopped a true fashionista? NO! OF COURSE NOT! How do you think they produce ice for making ice-cream in this period? They take Gilbert by the hand (brazen), dip it in the water (foolish), and wait for it to freeze over (intense eye contact occurs)! Ice-cream manufacturing is the most dangerous industry out there! His cane somehow still manages to do the tap-tapping sound when he walks over the sand. Heck, he can walk into the water, and it will still tap. Tap. Tap.

Silvio: He's going to have fun tan lines from all that jewellery, but who's there to stop him? Nobody. He owns the place. He puts taxes on Gilbert's cold hands. He's charging everybody for any piece of shade there is. All while resting on his private jacht.

Keith: Well, Keith A and Keith B fight for dominance, and it is quite a fervent battle... carried out through dressing and undressing him, because one cannot handle the mortifying ordeal of being seen, while the other cannot even begin to hope to cope with the heat.

Rio: He just enjoys his time being rescued by Emma, or helping Emma rescue other people. Because, you've guessed it, she's a lifeguard. Rio's living for it. No CPR for him, however. Only (friendly) slaps. After her watch is over, he takes her out on a date. He plans to confess (again) at sunset.

Sariel: He stayed back in Rhodolite. He loves peace and quiet... Although, perhaps, he misses them all a bit? Just a tiny, tiny, tiny little bit...

A sunny picnic day - Licht Klein x Reader ( Ikemen prince)

Word count: 182

Event: Minx's summer fun event!

Pairing: Licht Klein x Reader

Tags: ....

This is my first writing here! I'm sorry that it is short but I didn't have any more ideas.

It was a sunny day and a good one to go to the beach. You and Licht decided to go for a picnic there. You were happily walking at his side and Licht was carrying the picnic basket to the spot you both decided to settle your picnic. When you both finally arrived at your spot, Licht took your hand in his and interfered your fingers together. Your cheeks started to go a little red while Licht gazed at you lovingly with his lovely gaze. You raised your head to directly meet his eyes that were staring at you. Licht then pulled his hand away from your hand to cup gently your cheek.

You finally opened your mouth: " Licht, do you still even wanna focus on the picnic or rather focus on me?" Licht replied: " Well, you are my favorite dessert to have but I'll give you mercy this time. Let's focus on the picnic lunches you made for us."

That sunny afternoon you and Licht had your lunch at the beach as you both gazed at the sky and each other.

Seagulls, seagulls...

Clavis x USP* Fluff

USP* - Unidentified Speaking Person, aka the UFO of my writing, as I like the first person POV, but this isn't quite what MC would say

A sweet little something for @solomons-poison 's Minx's Summer Fun Event >:3 And now that this is out of my system, may the next one be less *gestures vaguely* this.

Content Warnings: none

~~

Hidden in plain sight, lost somewhere in the conversation carried through seagulls’ cries and the whispers of the ocean…

Between me and the skies there is him, amber sparks lost in violet hair as sunset light casts itself like a ragged shawl over his shoulders, sharp glow clawing at his back with an ever-increasing sense of urgency. He thinks nothing of its demands, however, or so I can read in his enigmatic smile, a crystal clear droplet sliding down the curve of his cupid bow. Clavis laughs. He laughs at the skies and at the prospect of the stars, at the lukewarm water that laps at our legs and climbs to feather affection alongside my midriff in place of his hands… And it is this ambiguous joy of his I cannot comprehend, to both my delight and distress.

Coarse sand grates at my skin as the prelude to momentary bliss begins. His lips are supple softness with a touch of ocean salt, the faint scent of fresh grapes still lingering in his breath. Breeze combs through Clavis’ hair… But as sorry a sight as he may be, wet down to the thinnest thread, I embrace him whole. I return his caresses, invite him to go further before the high tide claims us for itself, utterly mesmerised with the unspoken mischief that lurks just behind the border of his eyelashes. So greedy of him I forget myself.

His eyes are my twin suns, but they cannot ward off the night when I kiss him. When he kisses me. When I allow Clavis to love me the way he fears to love, and to cherish me with the most frightening trust. Our clothes hardly obscure anything, sleeves clinging to our arms just as we hold onto each other. Modesty be damned – there is not a thing I’d rather do or have instead of this instant now.

Crying seagulls, lock us between your feathers so that we can last. So that I will never emerge from this bliss. So that ocean can fill over with his laugh… So that I can drown in his delicate touch, in the small ways he tests me, so that I can tremble a hundred times over whenever he threatens to pull back.
