The animators for Veilguard deserve so much recognition and acclaim. Like godDAMN they put in so much fantastic work even on things we were only going to see through flycam.
God. I am blown away every time new things like this are found.
so i managed to save edit my way into getting lucanis' romance scene to trigger and did some flycam shenanigans and discovered something
so usually with game cutscenes, all the characters involved will be loaded into that scene from the beginning but some would be hidden away off camera until they're meant to appear, and i thought maybe that's what was happening outside rook's room and that he'll just suddenly appear inside
but it turns out he's actually animated to stand there before he physically opens the door to enter (the door itself however is not animated to open and so he phases through it, although we do hear the sound effect of the door closing behind him)
and we know he has the line "i cannot believe we found you" but what we don't get to see is that disbelief on his face before he says it while he's entering the room
and then it cuts to when he is on camera and we see the weary teary eyed smile he gives to rook after he's made his presence known
and i know a lot of people like to headcanon that he's ended up in rook's room while they're gone at least once, either through his own intentions or spite's possession, and i think having this expression of disbelief as he walks in and sees rook is actually there this time supports it
#dragon age veilguard animation#I just can't get over it#it's so good#for those no longer at bioware well wherever they end up will be snatching up overwhelming talent#dragon age#dragon age veilguard#video game animation#lucanis dellamorte#lucanis x rook#my heart aches for him#such potent hope and disbelief#potent and fragile#oh my heart

— ⋆˚࿔ But What If Choso Could Knot? 𝜗𝜚˚⋆:




His knot would be so large that it stretches your cunt to its limit, and you can feel how every part of him is churning up your insides- making a mess of your guts as he continues to rut into you like the needy pup he is.
All you can do is sit there in his lap all pretty, legs straddling him, your womanly juices squirting making the perfect little mess on his lap, coating his thighs, and that wonderful knot you can’t get enough of ~.
You're a whore for him, you're his bitch and you'll gladly sit here and take it. You'll be his good girl, allowing him to use your cunt as he pleases while he nips and suckles at the fragile skin of your throat… Even when he bites down a little too hard, leaving an angry red mark that will surely bruise, you'll take it and thank him. You'll even praise him and tell him what a good boy he is for you, that it’s okay of he bites down harder~.
You’re his personal onahole until he is satisfied, until that knot of his has pumped you full- until it’s painted your squishy insides a pretty white… until you’re bloated with his potent seed~ ♡. Clinging to him, your nails biting into his skin as you try with all your might to hold back a pained whimper, his knot growing in size to your surprise. His arms wrap around you as he places tender kisses along the bruises he’s left in his wake.
Choso’s so lodged within you, unable to pull out because his knot has swelled to its maximum size now… A part of him feels bad, that you’re forced to stay there with him, trapped on his lap- stuck on his fat knot… So he offers a few whispered sweet nothings, before he goes back to fucking your brains out, forcing his knot further into your abused pussy until there’s tears brimming in the corner of your eyes, rolling down your cheeks as he fucks the life out of you.

I would love any yandere clan leader fluff tbh, maybe one where someone from a clan at a party disrespects reader and he comforts her after defending her? Thanks!
Soft Yandere! Clan Leader x Wife! Reader
note: it kind of follows the theme of reader being overly insecure/doubting him
warnings: harassment, insecure! reader,
Everything was loud.
The piano and violin, the hushed whispers surronding you like constant white noise, the whiskey lingering in the air like cheap perfume. You felt your head spin and buzz—bile on the back of your tongue while you clutched your glass filled with the unidentifiable magenta swirling inside of it.
You shouldn't be here. Just were not cut-out for this; for the weight that your husband's last name bore, pushing you down until you could do nothing but slouch.
And then a strange cold limp patted you on your shoulder. Right, you were next to your husband's cousin—what was his name again?
“Relax, I’m sure he's gonna be right back.”
But as he laughed, tipsy as he was, you were certain that his hand shouldn’t feel like a heavy paw of a fox tackling down a lamp to feast on—it probably should’ve comforted you along with his words, reassure you and ease the tension between your shoulder blades.
“Pretty shy, ain't you?” he quipped and all you could do was smile awkwardly.
He was nice-looking, younger than you, probably with no fear of anything; especially not physical contact. It probably didn't mean much to him, but to you the pads of his fingers brushing over your naked shoulder felt violating, as if he placed them there specifically to watch the discomfort spawn on your face. As if he prided himself with being socially more comptent than you.
“Such a pretty face, but you don't talk much, do ya? C’mon talk, it's just me, we’re practically family now.” his breath stung, made your eyes tear up from the potent concentration of alcohol.
You hadn’t even meant to get roped up in this conversation, not at all. Passing by, searching for your husband in the crowd of unfamiliar clan-members and different clans; men dressed in their finest suits or cultural attires, with women adored in extravagant dresses and bold colours—you had stumbled upon the one familiar face of his distant cousin and now his arm draped over your shoulder like shackles keeping you in place.
“Got really lucky with ya—didn’t he? Lucky Bastard.” he laughed and you further shrunk and shriveled into yourself. “Got to be the next clan leader, got the title, the fame, the power, always got the prettier women—”
“That's enough.” a voice cut through the stifling air like a whip; sharp and poised like the gaze of his owner with his sudden appearance —draped in matching midnight blue silk, dressed worthy of the head of a clan as large as his was.
He was angered, you could tell that much—the piercing look in his eyes spoke for itself; as deep as the ocean, a storm wracking in his soul, with waves building up until they even swallowed you.
So you looked away, ashamed.
“I said that's enough.” this time he ripped his cousin's dirty paw off of your shoulder. His jaw was clenched and suddenly you felt suffocated by the intensity of it all—you hadn't meant for this. What if now he would blame you? Thought you were comfortable with being close to other men. He was so sweet till now, but what if he was appalled now, disgusted, what if he—
“Are you alright, love?” he grounded you, as he always did, holding you like fragile porcelain, peering down at you with stern but not unkind eyes.
“I-I am fine.” you stammered, overwhelmed by his gentle tone and softer touch—it made your head spin with confusion. Just why was he always so kind to you? Even now? Even after everything he saw.
“Love, you don't look fine to me.” he whispered, came close enough so that his breath brushed the shell of your ear and the warmth of it travel down to your painfully fast beating heart. “No, I really am—”
“She said she's fine. What? Tryna make me seem like the bad guy when you left your woman alone—” he didn't get any more words out before his collar tightened, dangerously until air was just but a luxury.
Yet you didn't even see him choking, nor did you hear whatever it was that your betrothed threatened him with, shielding your line of sight with his broad back, towering over the other guy as if he didn't want you to watch.
However he, no matter how much he tried concealing the conversation occuring between them—with hushed whispers similar to that of a scolding father—you could see raw terror in his cousin's eyes after your husband let him go. The man’s eyes were as wide as saucers and they may have met yours for just a fraction—yet you were sure of what you saw. Even more so as he scurried away like a mouse.
“Come. Let's get you out of here.” he grabbed you by your arm, firmly with strength that you knew would bruise if he was as angry with you as he was with his cousin. So he wasn't angry with you? Somehow, knowing this only unsettled you further.
He whisked you away—somewhere much more private and intimate; into a nearby empty room. Staring down at you, he stood still as a statue after closing the door, allowing silence to hug the both of you in a stifling embrace.
“I am sorry—” you broke through the silence, shattering the illusion of calmness.
“Sorry?” he furrowed his brows, bewilderment taking over his features and you swore his eyes watered. In a way, he only looked more frustrated, the sharpness of his features morphing to something animalistic.
“Is sorry not enough?” you flinched, squinting, the moon once more had chosen you to illuminate with its beauty. Yet, you were nothing worth of it—not when he stood in front of you, more righteous and more deserving than you ever had been.
It seemed he was at a loss for words, staring at you as if you were alien to him.
“I truly feel remorseful—” you were about to kneel, lower yourself, but before your knees even had the chance to hit the ground he held you in his arms, shaking you with all his might.
“Stop, my love, please stop. One more word of yours and my heart will rip.” he was frantic, desperate. This wasn't the usual head-strong confident leader, the man with the voice of chiffon—this was him, raw and vulnerable.
“How can you—have I failed this much?” his voice was like tides of the sea; unrestrained yet eerily calm. “Have I neglected you? Have I not shown you how much I love you?” his touch become more frantic, hands burying themselves into the fabric of your dress.
“I failed you, my love. I am so ashamed of myself.” now he was the one kneeling in front of you. The man who's presence alone was enough to demand order and submission, who reigned over his clan firmly yet fairly, who was respected by everyone around you—at your feet, staring up at you as if you were his goddess and he a peasant.
Stunned you could only stare as wetness glistened over his cheeks, strange softness taking ahold of his features.
“I—” he pressed a kiss to your ankle. “I will prove myself to you once again. I will love you so much, you won't ever have the opportunity to doubt. I will love you enough for the both of us. So much, that you won't ever take the blame for a bastard again. I will love you so much, that you will stop thinking that you're anything but a minx that captured me and continues to do so.” he kissed your knee.
“Do you even know how much I struggle to let you out of my arms whenever we hug? I can't bear the thought of someone else claiming that you're theirs. When I know that you're my soulmate since the day our eyes met. I am yours in body and mind and I want you to finally see that.” his voice deep and soulful cracked, fingers clutching you like a lifeline.
“My love, I will do better. I promised once to prove myself to you, and I promise twice now. Even if it takes my whole life, I will get rid of everything that hurts you. Anyone that hurts you. And that includes all that garbage in that pretty head of yours. I will do better teaching you, love.” he kissed you over your beating heart.
“I am yours.”

See, you don't understand how much of a whore Derek is for Stiles. How fucking gone he is over this spastic, pale as fuck, beautiful creature. How, once they've started dating, he cannot get over the overwhelming awe he has over Stiles' mind, his tongue, his wit, fuck -his body; how it moves under Derek's fingers, how Stiles mewls lightly when Derek kneads a sore muscle as they lay in bed for no productive reason whatsoever under the sunday sunlight. You don't know how many whimpers Derek has to hold back with his teeth pressed tight into his lower lip when Stiles moves, his thin waist so... grabbable, his lanky frame the most odd mix of fragile yet potent. He could go on and on and on about his suffering with Stiles but nobody will ever GET IT!

- amira. 5/29/25. 1:23 PM. 🫥.
Simon pressed back against the cool plaster wall outside the closed door, heart pounding like artillery fire. inside, his wife’s soft moans drift through the thin wood, each one a spark of need that made him clench his fists at his sides. in the next room, his mates are laughing over last night’s mission debrief—completely unaware that Simon’s locked in a battle of self-control on the other side of the door.
he shook his head, trying to clear the haze of arousal. he needs a moment alone with her. a moment to taste the warmth he’s been craving all day. but every creak of the floorboards, every distant shout, reminds him how loud she can be when she hits that perfect spot—how much he needs to keep it down.
inside, he heard her shift on the bed, the rustle of sheets. his cock throbs against his jeans. Simon slid his hand under his shirt, pressing his palm against his chest to steady his breathing. he can almost feel the slick heat of her against his fingers, the way her hips arch when he first sank inside her. he closed his eyes, picturing her silky skin, the curve of her waist, the way her back curved when she pressed into him.
his jaw clenched when she let out a soft gasp—a sound so fragile and delicious. Simon’s fingers itch to be there, brushing the spot that made her cry out, but he dared not move. he traced the seam of the door with the pad of his thumb, counting the seconds until he could slip inside. if he wasn’t quick, his mates would stumble in any moment.
he pressed his ear to the door, listening to her breath catch, the subtle slap of skin on skin. he remembers she told him once that hearing her name on his lips was the surest way to send her over the edge. he swallows the groan building in his throat, biting his lip until he taste blood.
finally, a lull in the laughter next door. Simon slips the deadbolt, turned the handle, and eased the door open. the sight of her sprawled on the mattress, inviting him in. she lifts her head, eyes bright with need and mischief.
he hovers in the doorway for a heartbeat—watching the way the lamp light danced over her curves, the sheen of sweat on her collarbones. then he steps in, closing the door silently behind him and leaning in to capture her lips in a feather-light kiss that turned hungry in the span of a breath.
she moans—quiet, urgent—melting against him. Simon’s hands came up to cradle her face, thumbs brushing over her damp cheeks. he slid one hand down her side, pressing through the thin fabric to find her breast, thumb rolling over the hardened nipple. she shivers, pressing back into him, hips lifting just enough for friction.
he broke the kiss, stepping closer, pressing his body against hers. his cock, desperate and straining, found her slick warmth immediately through the thin barrier of her panties. Simon groans low in his throat, one hand sliding to the waistband to tug them down in a single, deft motion. she raised her hips to help, legs parting, as he sank in—slow, potent—a delicious stretch that stole his breath.
her arms wound around his neck as he settles fully inside her, chest to chest, both gasping softly. Simon froze for a moment, forehead pressed to hers, listening for any sign that his mates noticed—anything to remind him to keep his control. but all he heard is the rapid thrum of her heart beneath his palm.
he began to move, slow at first, savoring every inch: the way her walls clench around him, the soft sighs she tucked into his shirt, the gentle slick slide of her against him. her fingers tangle in his hair, nails grazing his scalp as she urged him on. he lowers his voice, brushing his lips along her jaw. “so fucking good,” he murmurs, voice gravelly. “stay quiet for me.”
she nods, mouth open in a silent moan, Simon pressed a finger to her lips—feather-light, a promise. he set a steady rhythm, hips rolling forward and back, deeper each time. the thin quilted mattress creaked under them, but both stifle heavier sounds with whispered shushes and small bites to bare skin.
as he picks up the pace, the heavenly friction drove both closer to the edge. Simon’s breath caught when her walls fluttered around him, when her back arched as she bit her lip to hold back the cry rising in her throat. he buries his face in her neck, pressing kisses wherever he could reach, each one a claim, a reminder of how much he needed her.
her legs wrap tighter around his hips, pressing him deeper, and Simon knew they had only seconds. he thrust hard, hand sliding to her clit to circle and rub in time with his hips. she gasps sharply, body trembling, and his control snaps. the wave crashing through him—long, hot spurts pulsing inside her as he moans her name into the hush of the room.

Big Bad Wolf
alpha!ceo!Natasha Romanoff x omega!fem!reader
summary: Rushed by loss and besieged by enemies, Natasha seeks an heir in the enigmatic omega, Y/N. Their first encounter sparks intrigue, but Natasha's iron walls threaten to extinguish the fragile connection before it ignites, leaving the future of her empire shrouded in mystery.
part 1

Request are open
masterlist



The panoramic windows of Natasha’s penthouse suite, usually a canvas displaying the vibrant, sprawling cityscape, now served only as vast, reflective surfaces. They mirrored the disquiet churning within her, a turbulent sea trapped behind a polished facade. Days had bled into one another since the support group meeting, yet the encounter with Y/N replayed endlessly in her mind. It was a fragmented, jarring film reel she couldn't seem to stop, each awkward pause, each sharp word, each flicker of hurt in Y/N’s expressive eyes, and the quiet finality of her departure echoing against the backdrop of her luxurious, yet profoundly isolating, living space.
The rich textures of the room, usually a source of comfort and a testament to her hard-won control, now felt like opulent shackles. The deep pile of the Persian rug, usually soft beneath her feet, now seemed to absorb her restless pacing without offering solace. The smooth coolness of the Italian leather furniture, typically a symbol of her refined taste, now felt cold and unyielding against her touch. Even the warm glow of the strategically placed lighting, designed to create an atmosphere of sophisticated tranquility, now seemed to highlight the emptiness, the echoing silence that had become her unwanted companion. She found herself drawn to the floor-to-ceiling windows, the distant hum of the city a stark and indifferent contrast to the internal storm raging within her.
A fleeting image flickered in her mind, unbidden and surprisingly vivid. The same panoramic view, softened by the warm hues of a setting sun, but different somehow. The stark lines of the modern furniture were softened by colorful throws and plump cushions. Instead of echoing silence, the air was filled with the joyful chaos of children’s laughter, the small, excited voices of little alphas and omegas chasing each other, their tiny hands leaving smudges on the pristine glass. Toys, bright and scattered, lay abandoned mid-play. And in the midst of this delightful disarray, Y/N sat on a comfortable armchair, a gentle curve to her pregnant belly, her eyes radiating a quiet contentment as she watched the children, occasionally offering a soft word or a loving smile. Natasha, in this imagined scene, felt a warmth spread through her chest, a sense of belonging she had never truly known. This wasn’t the sterile perfection of her current life; it was messy, vibrant, real. It was a home.
The vision, however fleeting, was potent. It was a life far removed from the harsh realities of her childhood in the Red Room, a life where vulnerability wasn't a weakness to be exploited but a bond to be cherished. A life where an heir wasn't the sole purpose of connection, but where love and genuine affection formed the foundation. But then, the sharp edges of reality intruded. She barely knew Y/N. This idealized future, this sudden longing for domesticity, was absurd, a phantom limb aching for a connection that hadn't even begun to form. And even if… even if there was a possibility, could she, Natasha, ever truly offer someone like Y/N a safe and loving space, free from the shadows of her past? The thought was both tantalizing and terrifying.
She shook her head slightly, trying to dislodge the fanciful image. It was a dangerous distraction, a sentimental indulgence she couldn't afford. Yet, the contrast between the imagined warmth and her current isolation was stark and unsettling.
A soft click of the door broke through her reverie, pulling her back to the cold reality of her penthouse. Yelena sauntered in, her usual playful energy radiating from her like a tangible aura. She leaned against the doorframe, a knowing smirk already gracing her lips. The faint scent of something sweet and slightly burnt – likely a failed baking experiment – clung to her clothes.
“Still brooding by the window, Nat?” Yelena’s voice was light, but held a teasing edge. “Planning your next corporate takeover or just replaying your disastrous attempt at making a friend?”
Natasha didn’t bother turning from the view. The distant city lights blurred slightly as she focused on the internal landscape of her regret. “It wasn’t a disaster.” The lie felt weak even to her own ears.
“Oh really?” Yelena pushed off the doorframe and strolled further into the room, her footsteps silent on the thick carpet. “Because from where I was sitting, it looked like you managed to scare off a perfectly lovely omega with the grace and charm of a cornered wolverine. And I even caught a whiff of her distress pheromones afterward. Poor thing probably thought she’d stumbled into a den of angry alphas.”
A sigh escaped Natasha’s lips, carrying a hint of genuine remorse. “I didn’t mean to.” The admission felt surprisingly difficult, a crack in the carefully constructed wall of her usual self-assurance. The scent of her own faint alpha pheromones, usually controlled and masked, had likely spiked during the tense exchange, adding to Y/N’s discomfort.
Yelena perched on the arm of a velvet armchair, her gaze sharp and perceptive. “I know you didn’t mean to, Nat. That’s the problem, isn’t it? You don’t mean to be prickly, but it just… happens. Like a reflex. Years of deflecting and guarding yourself don’t just vanish overnight.”
Natasha finally turned, leaning against the cool glass. The reflection staring back at her was a familiar stranger – sharp, composed, but with a flicker of something akin to… longing? “I’m used to people having agendas. To looking for weaknesses. Their omega sub-gender often plays into those manipulations. She just… seemed genuine. Unassuming.” She remembered the soft curve of Y/N’s cheeks, the way her eyes held a warmth that seemed to radiate from within, the comfortable fullness of her figure that spoke of a gentle acceptance of herself. It was a stark contrast to the polished, often performative, interactions she was accustomed to.
“And that threw you, didn’t it?” Yelena’s tone softened, a hint of understanding replacing the teasing. “Someone being genuinely kind, genuinely curious… especially an omega who didn't seem to be playing any games… it’s not exactly your everyday boardroom encounter.”
A small, almost imperceptible nod was Natasha’s only response. The memory of the subtle floral and earthy notes of Y/N’s natural omega pheromones, a comforting blend that had felt surprisingly grounding, lingered in her senses.
“So,” Yelena continued, rubbing her hands together with a mischievous glint in her eyes. “Operation ‘Win Back the Intriguing Omega’ is a go?”
Natasha raised an eyebrow, a hint of her usual skepticism returning. “There is no ‘operation.’”
“Oh, come on,” Yelena scoffed. “You’ve been staring out that window for days. You’re practically radiating regret. Besides,” she added with a wink, “Kate’s been singing Y/N’s praises non-stop. Apparently, her sourdough starter is legendary. And she makes the most incredible, slightly oversized, but utterly delicious cookies.”
A faint smile touched Natasha’s lips despite herself. “Her sourdough starter? And oversized cookies?” The image of Y/N, her hands dusted with flour, carefully shaping imperfect but heartfelt treats, was surprisingly appealing.
“Apparently,” Yelena confirmed. “And her knowledge of obscure herbs is unparalleled. Kate’s convinced she could single-handedly cure the common cold with a sprig of something she foraged in the woods. She even mentioned Y/N’s incredibly soothing natural scent when she’s calm, something about chamomile and warm earth.”
“Kate exaggerates,” Natasha said, but the edge in her voice was gone. The thought of Y/N possessing such a calming presence was intriguing.
“Maybe,” Yelena conceded. “But she also said Y/N is resilient. That she’s been through things and come out stronger. That she has a quiet confidence that’s rather… disarming. That sounds like someone who could handle a grumpy alpha, don’t you think?”
The thought resonated with Natasha. Strength wasn’t just about physical prowess or corporate power. Y/N possessed a different kind of strength, a quiet inner fortitude that had shone through even in their brief, tense encounter. The way she had held her gaze, even when clearly uncomfortable, spoke volumes.
“So,” Yelena pressed, her enthusiasm building. “What’s the plan? Grand gesture? Public apology? Maybe a strategic deployment of highly trained operatives to locate her favorite bakery and shower her with those legendary oversized cookies?”
Natasha shook her head, a genuine smile finally breaking through her usual reserve. “No operatives. No grand gestures. I just… I’d like to talk to her again. Properly this time.”
“Properly,” Yelena echoed, a hint of amusement in her voice. “As opposed to your usual method of communication, which involves veiled threats and intimidating eye contact, possibly accompanied by a subtle release of dominant alpha pheromones?”
“Something like that,” Natasha admitted, a wry smile playing on her lips. “But I don’t even know where to find her.”
“Leave that to me,” Yelena said, pulling out her phone. “Kate’s got contacts. Besides,” she added with a sly grin, “a little intel gathering never hurt anyone. Especially when it involves a potentially legendary sourdough starter.”
A few taps and a brief conversation later, Yelena hung up, her expression triumphant. “Got her. Apparently, she volunteers at a local community garden a few days a week. And today is one of those days.”
Natasha’s heart gave a small, unexpected flutter. A community garden. It seemed a world away from the polished steel and glass of her corporate life, yet somehow, the image of Y/N tending to plants, her hands in the soil, felt… right. Grounded.
“So?” Yelena prompted, already heading towards the door. “Are we going to go cultivate some… understanding?”
Natasha hesitated for a moment, a flicker of her old apprehension returning. But the image of Y/N’s gentle smile, the quiet strength in her eyes, and the unexpected pull of her calming pheromones spurred her forward. “Let’s go.”
They descended the numerous floors in the private elevator, the silence punctuated only by the soft whoosh of the mechanism. As they stepped out into the bustling lobby of Romanoff Industries, Natasha felt a strange sense of shedding her corporate armor, if only slightly. Today wasn’t about mergers or acquisitions; it was about something far more personal, far more uncertain. The usual respect bordering on fear in the eyes of her employees felt oddly distant.
Yelena, ever attuned to her sister’s moods, clapped her on the shoulder. “Relax, Nat. Just be yourself. Well, the slightly less intimidating version of yourself. Maybe try not to accidentally trigger her flight response with your alpha aura this time.”
Natasha managed a weak smile. “No promises.”
——timeskip——
As the sleek black car idled across the street from the vibrant green space, Natasha felt a familiar knot of anxiety tighten in her chest. The community garden buzzed with a gentle energy – the murmur of voices, the snip of shears, the earthy scent of soil mingling with the sweet perfume of blooming flowers. It was a stark contrast to the sterile efficiency of her usual environment, and for a fleeting moment, she wondered if she’d made a mistake even agreeing to this. The air itself felt different, less controlled, more alive.
“See? Nothing to be afraid of, sestra,” Yelena chirped, her gaze fixed on the activity outside. “Just a bunch of… well, gardeners. Harmless, mostly.” She paused, sniffing the air dramatically. “Definitely a lot of beta pheromones. A few other omegas, judging by the sweeter notes. And… hmm, a couple of other alphas. Keep your claws sheathed, big sister.”
Natasha didn’t reply, her eyes scanning the figures tending to the plots. The sunlight glinted off watering cans and tools, and the air, thick with the promise of spring, carried a subtle mix of pheromones – the grounding earthiness of betas, the bright floral notes of other omegas, and even a faint, underlying hum that she instinctively recognized as belonging to other alphas. It was a sensory tapestry so different from the carefully controlled atmosphere of her penthouse, where even the air filtration system minimized natural scents.
“You’re going to psych yourself out before we even get out of the car, Nat,” Yelena said, a playful nudge in her tone. “Remember what we talked about. Be… approachable. Like a fluffy kitten. Or at least a slightly less grumpy bear. Maybe try suppressing the urge to assert your dominance with a subtle pheromonal pulse every five seconds.”
“I am perfectly capable of being approachable,” Natasha retorted, though her gaze remained fixed on a woman with a wide-brimmed hat carefully pruning a rose bush.
“Sure, and I’m the Queen of England,” Yelena quipped, rolling her eyes. “Just try smiling. You know, the one that doesn’t look like you’re contemplating a hostile takeover. And maybe try not to smell quite so much like you own the entire Eastern Seaboard.”
Natasha huffed, but the corners of her lips twitched almost imperceptibly. This was ridiculous. She was Natasha Romanoff, a woman who negotiated multi-billion dollar deals and commanded the respect of entire industries. Why was the prospect of a simple conversation with one omega, a slightly chubby omega with kind eyes and a talent for sourdough, making her feel like a teenager before her first dance?
Suddenly, Yelena’s breath hitched. “Oy, smotri! Look!”
Natasha followed her sister’s gaze. Walking along the sidewalk beside their car, her figure framed by the dappled sunlight filtering through the trees, was Y/N. She was wearing a flowy sundress, the soft fabric swaying gently with each step, and her hair was pulled back in a loose braid, tendrils escaping to frame her face. She carried a small woven bag over her shoulder, and there was a peaceful, almost ethereal quality to her movements. The faint scent of chamomile and warm earth that Yelena had mentioned was now more distinct, a calming aroma that seemed to cut through Natasha’s anxiety.
Before Natasha could even formulate a coherent thought, Yelena’s door swung open. In a move that was as swift as it was utterly unexpected, Yelena was out of the car and moving towards Y/N with a determined glint in her eyes.
“Yelena, what in God’s name are you doing?” Natasha hissed, mortification flooding her senses. This was not how she had envisioned this… whatever this was supposed to be. The subtle scent of Y/N’s surprise and a flicker of fear began to mix with the calming chamomile.
Yelena reached Y/N just as she was about to pass their car. With a surprising display of strength, she grabbed Y/N’s arm.
“Hello there, golubchik,” Yelena said, her voice deceptively sweet, but her grip firm. The shift in her pheromones was immediate, a subtle but unmistakable hint of alpha dominance underlying the sweetness.
Y/N’s eyes widened in alarm. “Hey! What are you doing? Let go of me!” Her voice was sharp with surprise and a dawning sense of panic. The calming scent of chamomile was abruptly overpowered by a sharp spike of fear and distress.
“We need a little chat,” Yelena said, her smile not reaching her eyes. Before Y/N could fully react, Yelena was practically frog-marching her towards the open car door.
“Get your hands off me! I’m calling the police!” Y/N struggled, her protests growing louder, a mixture of fear and anger in her tone. The peaceful atmosphere of the garden was abruptly shattered by the sounds of her escalating distress. Several nearby gardeners turned, their expressions shifting from mild curiosity to concern. The air now crackled with a palpable tension, the natural pheromonal balance completely disrupted.
Natasha’s face burned with embarrassment. This was a disaster of epic proportions. She scrambled out of the car, her mind racing, trying to salvage this unbelievably chaotic situation. Her own alpha instincts flared momentarily, a protective urge towards Y/N warring with her utter mortification at Yelena’s tactics.
“Yelena! Stop it! What are you thinking?” Natasha’s voice was low and urgent, but Yelena seemed completely unfazed, her focus entirely on the struggling omega.
“Get in the car, mishka,” Yelena commanded, practically shoving a resisting Y/N towards the back seat. Her grip tightened as Y/N tried to pull away, the scent of fear emanating from her now sharp and acrid.
“I said let go of me, you crazy woman!” Y/N yelled, her voice trembling slightly. She tried to pull away, but Yelena’s grip was like iron. Her woven bag slipped from her shoulder and landed on the sidewalk, spilling a few gardening gloves and a small trowel.
“Just get in,” Yelena repeated, her tone brooking no argument. With a final heave, she managed to maneuver a flailing Y/N into the back seat. Yelena then slid in after her, effectively trapping Y/N between herself and the car door. The small space now filled with the clashing scents of Yelena’s forceful alpha, Y/N’s fear, and Natasha’s rising panic.
Natasha stood by the open door, aghast. Passersby were starting to stare, their gardening forgotten as they witnessed the bizarre scene unfolding. The subtle pheromonal balance in the air had shifted, the undercurrent of alarm and distress now palpable. One of the alpha gardeners started to move towards the car, a protective growl rumbling in his chest.
“Yelena, you can’t just kidnap people!” Natasha exclaimed, her voice a strained whisper.
“I’m not kidnapping her,” Yelena said, her tone surprisingly reasonable considering the circumstances. “I’m facilitating a conversation. With a bit of persuasive encouragement.”
“A conversation that started with you physically assaulting me?” Y/N interjected, her voice tight with fury. “Let me out of this car right now! You have no right to touch me!” Her plump cheeks were flushed with anger and fear, and her chest heaved with rapid breaths.
“Now, now, no need for hysterics,” Yelena said, patting Y/N’s arm in a gesture that was anything but comforting. “We just want to talk to you about Natasha.”
Y/N glared at Natasha, her eyes flashing with indignation. “Talk to me? After the way she acted at the support group? I have nothing to say to either of you! You were both incredibly rude and dismissive.”
Natasha finally found her voice, though it was laced with mortification. “Look, Y/N, I m am so sorry about this. Yelena’s methods are… unconventional. To say the least.” Her own pheromones were now a confusing mix of apology and a desperate attempt to defuse the tense situation.
“Unconventional?” Y/N scoffed, her voice rising in disbelief, a sharp contrast to the gentle cadence Natasha had briefly heard at the support group. “This is assault! Physical assault! I could press charges! And frankly,” her gaze sharpened, focusing directly on Natasha, “after your condescending attitude the other day, the way you dismissed my experience like it was nothing, I’m half-tempted to! Maybe a night in a cell would teach you both some manners!” The scent of her anger intensified, a bitter tang now mingling with the lingering fear.
“And you would be entirely within your rights to do so,” Natasha conceded, her gaze unwavering, her voice low and sincere, devoid of any corporate edge. She could feel the weight of Y/N’s anger, the justified indignation radiating from her. “But please, hear me out. This… this,” she gestured vaguely at Yelena, still perched beside a clearly distressed Y/N, “is not how I wanted to approach this. My intention was… different.” The word felt inadequate, a flimsy shield against the reality of Yelena’s actions.
“Different how?” Y/N challenged, her arms still crossed defensively, her body language radiating distrust. “Did you plan on sending your goons to ‘facilitate a conversation’ at my home? Maybe leave a threatening note attached to a bouquet of poisoned flowers?” The sarcasm dripped from her voice, sharp and laced with genuine fear. The subtle tremors in her hands betrayed her outward bravado.
Yelena, ever the pragmatist, though her methods were anything but, cut to the chase. “Alright, here’s the deal, dorogaya. Natasha here,” she gestured towards her sister with a flourish, her hand nearly colliding with Y/N’s nose, “is socially challenged. Think of her as a highly intelligent, incredibly capable, but utterly inept puppy when it comes to feelings. She doesn’t always say what she means, and sometimes what she means comes out sounding like she’s declaring war on your entire existence, possibly including your beloved sourdough starter. It’s a communication quirk. A deeply ingrained, possibly irreversible, communication quirk. But! She actually feels bad – genuinely bad – about how things went at the meeting. She’s been moping around her ridiculously oversized apartment for days, smelling faintly of regret and expensive whiskey, and occasionally sighing dramatically while staring at the city lights.”
Natasha shot Yelena a look that could curdle milk, a silent promise of severe and immediate retribution flickering in her eyes. Her own alpha pheromones flared briefly in annoyance, a low growl of displeasure rumbling in her chest, before she consciously suppressed them, reminding herself of the precariousness of the situation. Her sister was making a mockery of the situation, downplaying her own atrocious behavior, but somehow, amidst the absurdity, there was a kernel of truth to her awkwardness.
“And,” Yelena continued, her tone shifting to something resembling a hostage negotiator laying out terms, “if you agree to go on a date with her… in a few days… say, next Wednesday evening? A proper date, involving polite conversation, actual smiles (from Natasha, hopefully), and the distinct absence of any physical coercion… where she will be charming and attentive and will not say anything even remotely resembling a threat, and will probably even compliment your… lovely dress… then we will let you out of this car, unharmed, right now. What do you say? It’s a simple yes or no. Though, we strongly encourage a yes.”
Y/N stared at Yelena as if she had sprouted a second head, her plump cheeks still flushed with indignation, her breathing still shallow. “Are you out of your mind? A date? With her? After all this? I’d rather be locked in a room full of rabid ferrets! At least then I’d have a legitimate reason to bite someone! And the authorities would probably be more sympathetic!”
“Come on, don’t be like that,” Yelena wheedled, her earlier aggression vanishing as quickly as it had appeared, replaced by a surprisingly earnest expression, her voice softening. “Think of it as a peace offering. A chance for Natasha to show you that she’s not entirely a heartless ice queen. Maybe she’ll even tell you embarrassing stories about her childhood in Russia. Those are always a hit. Besides,” she leaned closer to Y/N, lowering her voice conspiratorially, “she can be surprisingly generous. Think good wine, excellent food maybe even a small, non-threatening gift.”
“She made it pretty clear what she thought of me at the meeting,” Y/N retorted, crossing her arms even tighter over her chest, her chin jutting out defiantly. “I don’t need her pity, or her… generosity. I need her to understand that her words have consequences, that other people have feelings!” The scent of her hurt resurfaced, a subtle undercurrent beneath the anger.
Natasha stepped closer to the car, her expression earnest, her voice low and sincere, the usual steel replaced by a genuine plea. “Y/N, please. I truly didn’t mean to offend you. My… my reaction was rooted in my own… experiences. My own insecurities. It wasn’t about you. I… I’m not very good at… this kind of thing. Social interactions… they don’t come naturally to me. Especially in… emotionally charged environments. I tend to…default to defense.” It was a rare and painful admission of vulnerability, and it cost her a significant amount of pride to say it, to lay bare a weakness she usually guarded fiercely. The scent of her own uncertainty, a faint, almost imperceptible tremor in her alpha pheromones, betrayed her discomfort, a stark contrast to her usual controlled aura.
Yelena seized the opportunity, sensing a crack in Y/N’s resistance. “See? She’s practically begging! Just one date. A few hours of your time. And then, if you still think she’s a monster, if she says anything remotely offensive, you can unleash your inner rabid ferret on her. What have you got to lose? Besides a perfectly lovely Wednesday evening and the potential for a surprisingly good meal?”
Y/N looked from Yelena’s determined face to Natasha’s surprisingly vulnerable one. She was clearly still furious and shaken, the scent of her lingering distress still palpable, a knot of fear and anger radiating from her, but there was a flicker of something else in her eyes – perhaps curiosity, a desire to understand the woman who had so easily dismissed her, or maybe just the sheer absurdity of the situation was starting to wear her down, the outlandishness of it all bordering on the darkly comedic. She glanced at the concerned faces of the onlookers, the alpha gardener still hovering nearby with a protective air, then back at the two sisters.
“And if I say no?” Y/N challenged, her voice still laced with suspicion, her gaze sharp as she assessed their resolve.
Yelena’s smile tightened, the playful facade momentarily slipping to reveal a hint of the steel beneath, a reminder of the ruthlessness that lay beneath her often-teasing exterior. “Then we drive around until you change your mind. And trust me, dorogaya, we have all day. Natasha has… very comfortable car seats. And I have a playlist of truly terrible Russian pop songs that I’m sure you’d just adore.”
Natasha shot Yelena another warning glare, a silent plea for her to stop digging them into an even deeper hole. This was not going the way she had hoped, not that she had any clear idea of how she had hoped it would go. Kidnapping was certainly not on the agenda, nor was the threat of bad Russian music.
After a long, tense silence, the only sound the distant chirping of birds in the garden, Y/N let out a frustrated sigh, the fight seemingly draining out of her. Her shoulders slumped slightly, and the sharp scent of her anger began to recede, replaced by a weary resignation. “Fine,” she conceded, her voice grudging, the word feeling like it was being dragged from her. “One date. Wednesday evening. And if either of you pulls anything like this again, if there’s even a hint of coercion or condescension, I swear I will have you both arrested. And I know a very good lawyer. One who specializes in… unusual cases.”
“Excellent!” Yelena clapped her hands together, her earlier aggression vanishing as quickly as it had appeared, replaced by an almost childlike enthusiasm. “Wednesday it is! Seven o’clock? We’ll pick you up. Where do you live? Is it far? Do you have any… dietary restrictions? Natasha can be surprisingly accommodating when she wants to be.”
Y/N just glared at her, the scent of her lingering annoyance still a palpable barrier. “Just tell me where you’re taking me. I can meet you there. I am not getting into a car with either of you again. Not unless there are flashing blue lights involved.” The thought of being trapped with them was clearly still abhorrent.
“Alright, alright,” Yelena said agreeably, holding up her hands in mock surrender. “We’ll text you the address. Something… classy. Not too intimidating. Maybe that little Italian place with the surprisingly good tiramisu. They also have excellent vegetarian options, if that’s your thing. Now, let’s get you out of here before someone calls the actual police. Or that rather large alpha gardener decides to intervene with his pruning shears.”
Yelena unlocked the car door, and Y/N practically leaped out, putting as much distance between herself and the black sedan as possible. She retrieved her fallen bag and its scattered contents, her movements still stiff with residual anger and fear. She shot Natasha one last, wary look, a complex mix of emotions swirling in her intelligent gaze – anger, suspicion, and a flicker of something Natasha couldn’t quite decipher – before turning and quickly walking away, disappearing back into the leafy paths of the community garden. The calming scent of chamomile slowly began to reassert itself as she moved further away, a fragile peace returning to the disturbed air.
Natasha watched her go, a strange mix of relief and apprehension swirling within her. She had secured a second chance, albeit through the most bizarre and borderline illegal means imaginable. The concerned glances of the remaining gardeners felt like physical accusations, and the nearby alpha’s protective growl still echoed faintly in the air.
“Well,” Yelena said, brushing off her hands as if she’d just completed a particularly challenging task. “That went… interestingly. You have to admit, it was certainly efficient. And now you have a date! See? I told you I could fix things.”
Natasha just shook her head, utterly speechless, the absurdity of the situation washing over her. “Interestingly? Yelena, you practically kidnapped her! That alpha who was heading over here looked ready to tear you limb from limb! We could be facing assault charges!”
“Details, details,” Yelena waved a dismissive hand. “He was probably just worried about his prize-winning tomatoes. The important thing is, you have a date. Now, let’s go home. I think we both need a very fat shot vodka. And maybe you should start practicing your charming smile. The non-hostile takeover version. And perhaps work on your opening lines. ‘So, about that support group…’ is probably not the best way to start.”
As they got back into the car, the scent of blooming flowers and damp earth seemed to linger in the air, now tinged with the faint undercurrent of Y/N’s lingering distress and a surprising hint of her own resilience. Wednesday evening suddenly felt like a very long way away, a looming precipice of potential disaster or, against all odds, a chance at something… more than just another corporate negotiation.

Part I
"Hey, uh-uh. What did we say about stealth-ing in the house?"
Crap. You stand in the kitchen for a few seconds longer, thinking about how you're going to play this off.
"I didn't even make a sound, your hearing is amazing, baby!" You say, attempting to boost your lover's ego to distract him from this for now.
"Didn't hear you, I saw your shadow scurrying after you into the kitchen. Now quit stalling and come here."
"I reek of sweat and blood. Maybe I should shower first," you divert once again.
"Get over here or I'm coming to you, and I'm not gonna be a teddy bear about it."
You sigh and put your duffel bag down, dragging your tired feet to the living room. Before Toji can get a look at your mug, you put a hand over your mouth, not touching, just hovering over it. Finally, you step out into the bright, warm toned light, and look at Toji, like a bunny in the face of an enormous bear that could crush it with a single paw.
He crooks a finger, beckoning for you to come closer. From where he sits, he can see a scratch beneath your eye and one on your cheek.
"I know you're tired, but I need to see my girl," he says, making your heart shake like a rattle.
You drop your hand and take more purposeful steps towards him, ready to crawl into his embrace like you always do after the day begins to close out.
"Yeah, come here, baby," he says, making room for you on his lap, and sure enough, you weren't lying. As you settle onto his lap, the combination of your sweat and the irony smell of the dried blood on your clothes is potent. Does that stop him from holding you tight? Hell no, he handles you like you're fragile, because he knows you are. Your tiredness allows you to be that way after a long day of showing the contrary. He can't ever stress enough to you how much he understands that.
"What'd you eat for lunch?" Toji asks, rubbing your back while you rest your head on his shoulder.
"Lance and his wife invited me to go get ramen with them, but I wasn't that hungry then, so they gave me a couple granola bars," you mumble.
"Nice people. They really do treat you like you're one of their own kids."
"Mhm," you hum, turning your head to bury your face in his neck. He smells like safety and comfort. You come home to this every day.
"Let me see your face, doll," he murmurs. "I'm not gonna yell at you or get you in trouble or whatever bad thing you think is gonna happen. Just wanna see your pretty face," he says, in response to your hesitance.
You sigh, nervous for no reason. It's really not that bad, but it is noticeable. Slowly, you pull away from his neck and sit up for something you think will be incredibly anticlimactic, but... anything for Toji.
He stares at you, long and hard, inspecting every inch of your face for deep serious cuts. So far the only major damage is your busted lip.
"Are you mad?" You ask, as he runs the pad of his thumb over a thin, jagged cut on your cheek.
"No reason for me to be. Does your lip still hurt?" He asks, unable to look away for too long. Your lips are one of his favorite things to look at and he stares at them plenty, so it's not unusual for you.
"Not really," you respond, shaking your head. "It hurt like a bitch when it happened, but not so much anymore. Lance had some extra disinfecting wipes in his glove compartment so I cleaned it up a little on the way here. I'm fine."
"Hm. Any serious damage to your body?" Toji asks, massaging your shoulder blades, instinctively. "Arms, legs? How's your back?"
"I'm fine, baby," you insist, smiling at all the concern he's showing.
"Any scrapes on your hands or knees?"
"Probably, but i'm okay. Seriously, i'm fine."
"How 'bout a warm bath?" He suggests.
"I'm f--" you start, expecting another question of concern. "Wait, um..."
"A nice... toasty bath," he utters softly, carefully, to further entice you. "with those relaxing bubbles you love so much."
It sounds amazing, but only one thing could make it perfect.
"Can you stay with me? In the tub, I mean," you clarify. "I'll do a pre-wash. Get all the nasty off and... and i'll call you in once i'm done. You don't have to, of course," you add, a sheepish laugh following. "But, I would love you a million, billion, gajillion, if you did.
"Sounds perfect, doll," he agrees, leaning forward to kiss your cheek. Normally he would turn that last bit into a full fledged banter about you loving him when it's convenient to you, but your energy is limited, so he'll put it on hold for now. "You let me know when you're ready."
Despite him asking that of you, he does not let you out of his sight at all. He leans against the doorframe of the bathroom and watches you. Watches you remove your worn, filthy clothes. Watches you scrub your body down, head to toe. Your back has faded scars scattered over it, you have little cuts just below your ribs and scratches on your waist, and yet Toji thinks you've never looked more beautiful. He can't imagine you without a few scuff marks. He met you that way, he knows you that way, but all in all, he loves you in all ways, whether you've been grazed, you're healing, or scarred.
This may be one of his favorite rituals to do with you. Lying back against the tub with you sitting between his legs and resting against his chest, you jump between guessing how you both got your scars...
"Hm... severe rope burn?"
"Yeah! How'd you know?"
"You know the one I have on my ankle? Yeah, rope burn. Your turn."
"That's a blade's doing, isn't it?"
"Nope, this is my chains' doing. Yeah, I know, I know. Laugh it up, doll. Even the best mess up sometimes."
...and appreciating the fact that you're both so good at what you do, that you're still here.
"Gimme a kiss, baby," Toji requests, smirking fiendishly as his gaze darts between your eyes and your lips.
"Mm-mm," you say, shaking your head with a teasing grin. "Not with my lip all ugly like this."
"Not ugly. You look hot as fuck. Now give me a damn kiss."
You give him a quick peck, and he scoffs like you offended him with something so chaste.
"You wanna try that again, and give me a chance to, you know... be ready?"
"No, not really," you jest, gasping when he pinches your butt under the foamy water to show his disapproval of your response. "Alright, alright. Just be gentle," you plead, caving in to his needs, as usual.
"Yes, ma'am," he responds, grinning victoriously as he pulls you in closer to get a proper taste of your lips. They're soft as ever, despite their current, temporary appearance, and kissing you is as sweet and satisfying as it's always been. Nothing will ever change that for him.
"Fucking love you," he murmurs, the words a soft breath against your lips.
"Love you, too, baby," you respond, before going in for more.
A/N: Reader and Toji have different handlers. Lance is reader's handler, Toji still works with Shiu.

DC x DP Prompt #7
The Dragon has Three Heads
After their High King was crowned, he was taken in by the Ancients. He was a child with continuously growing power forced to bear the weight of the Infinite Realms and in need of guidance, who better to advise him than the almighty Ancients themselves?
At first, none could decide on who would take their young king in. Not because he was unwanted, but because he was. The Ancients nearly sent the Realms to war with their myriad of reasons and excuses as to why they should be the only ones to take the ghost child in as their own.
In the end, the Ancients came to the agreement of split custody. They would all adopt their little king, but the consequences were dire and unprecedented. With so many powerful beings claiming an even more powerful being as their own child, their little one’s power increased to an all time high nearly breaking the mortal body he resided in.
Every being dead and alive could feel the birth of a new primordial being born. Primordials, beings even more powerful than Ancients, were an extinct species. Any who existed would eventually fade into their domains and lose their sentience for all of existence.
But the Ancients did not want this. They did not want this end for their child. They would not allow it.
Instead, they planned. They traveled different worlds and planets, spreading tales of the Great King Phantom. The epithets they gave him were grand and they would not leave until their work was finished. Their child would be revered, feared, and most importantly, he would be remembered and sentient and alive.
Belief is a powerful tool. Powerful enough to keep Gods immortal, and Primordials from fading. So long as the mortals believed the Primordials were still walking among them, their child would never die. He might not understand why he had to visit his worshippers every few years, but it is for his own good.
Then came two more. Not quite Primordials, but they were certainly on their way. The girl was made in their child’s own image, a mirror. The boy was their child but different. From the moment he appeared, he was no longer outside of time, but outside of space itself.
And with them, came the human female. She was a fierce warrior. Headstrong and bold and so very protective of their little ones. She too became theirs. She too became their child. Yet she was too mortal, too fragile. They could not let this stand.
So they spread tales and created myths. Anything to ascend their mortal daughter into godhood and keep their immortal children alive. So came the legend of the Dragon. The legend of their children.
The Dragon has three heads
Jasmine, their little dragon. Three heads, one for each of her siblings. One head for each mouth she had to feed. One head for each mouth she had to teach. One head for each mouth she had to protect. Three heads for the three children she had to raise as a mere child herself.
And like a dragon, she persevered. Like a dragon, she fought with passion and power and pride. With the strength and determination of a dragon because in truth, she is a dragon. Born by fire, kissed by fire, loved by fire. None could deny the dragon blood running through her veins.
One to be a murderer who will unleash death
Daniel, their little destroyer. He who creates destruction and chaos with every step he takes. He who embodies rage and despair, love and fury, grief and sorrow. His emotions high and potent when it comes to those he loves, as well as those he hates. Having lost everyone he held so dearly, it is not a wonder as to why he is so ruthless and possessive over the family he has now.
One to be a monarch whose crown will weigh heavy
Danyal, their little savior. The assassin prince destined to defeat the tyrant and rule them for all of eternity. The boy king destined to lead and protect them for all of eternity. The holy emperor destined to ensure peace and prosperity spread throughout the Infinite Realms for all of eternity. The perfect and omnipotent God meant to be praised and worshipped for all of eternity.
And One to be mad whose ideas will change history
Danielle, their little wanderer. She who broke free from the unknowing chains that shackled her. She who bent and molded reality, forcefully rewriting the ancient laws. She who bowed to no man, no ideal, no predestined fate as she roamed and reshaped worlds. The little princess would create what she wanted, transform what she wanted, change what she wanted and none could stop her. Not when she was evolution itself.

begging u to write more telemachus smut hes so cutie i love him sm ,,, (I LOVE UR WRITING SM)
Forgive you? Already did.
A/N : Oh. My. Gosh. I love Telemachus so much. I imagined him in Ximena’s design while writing this. HE’S SUCH A CUTIE THERE OMG AND HIS MUSCLES? Okay I’m gonna shut up now and let you enjoy this… which I hope you do cuz this is the worst thing I have ever written.
WARNING : Smut, Fem!Reader. Smut with no plot, fluff, slight angst(?), Reader and Telemachus got into an argument.
Word Count : 1.8k



The slam of the door still echoed in your ears, a harsh punctuation mark at the end of your heated exchange with Telemachus. Each of his sharp words replayed in your mind, twisting and turning like a knife in a fresh wound. You paced the length of your room, the familiar tapestries and scattered scrolls offering no comfort. The injustice of the argument gnawed at you. You'd both been under immense pressure, navigating the strange new world you found yourselves in, the weight of destiny heavy on Telemachus' young shoulders. Yet, somehow, that pressure had erupted, and you were left feeling misunderstood and bristling with a hurt you hadn't anticipated.
Finally, exhaustion forced you to sink onto the edge of your bed, the roughspun fabric scratching against your skin. The light outside shifted, painting the sky in hues of bruised purple and fading orange. The silence in your room was thick, heavy with unspoken words and lingering frustration. You stared out the window, the intricate network of the city lights blurring through the unshed tears that pricked at your eyes. You missed the easy camaraderie you usually shared with Telemachus, the quick wit and shared laughter that often filled your days. This coldness between you felt alien and unwelcome.
Just as a sigh escaped your lips, a soft, hesitant knock echoed through the quiet room. Your breath hitched. Telemachus. You hadn't expected him so soon, if at all tonight. A flicker of hope warred with the lingering sting of his earlier words.
He stood in the doorway, his broad shoulders filling the frame, but his usual confident stance was replaced by a visible unease. His dark hair was slightly disheveled, and his eyes, usually so bright with mischief and determination, held a shadow of regret. He shifted his weight, his gaze locked on the floor for a moment before finally meeting yours.
"Y/N," he began, his voice rough, laced with a vulnerability you rarely heard. "I... I've been thinking. About what happened." He stepped fully into the room, closing the door softly behind him, as if afraid to break the fragile silence. "I spoke rashly. I was... frustrated, and that's no excuse to take it out on you."
Your own anger began to ebb, replaced by a weary relief that he had come. "I wasn't exactly blameless either, Telemachus," you admitted, your voice softer than you intended. "I let my own frustrations get the better of me."
He took a step closer, his gaze searching yours, and you could see the genuine remorse etched on his face. "I value you, Y/N. More than words can say. And the thought of... of this wedge between us... it's unbearable."
He reached out a hand, his calloused fingers hovering near yours. You didn't hesitate to meet his touch, your own hand sliding into his. The simple contact sent a wave of warmth through you, melting some of the icy barrier that had formed between you. His thumb traced slow circles on the back of your hand, a familiar and comforting gesture.
"I know things are... intense right now," he murmured, his voice dropping lower, "but I don't want that intensity to spill over into how we treat each other. Especially not us."
His gaze drifted to your lips, and a spark, undeniable and potent, flared between you. The lingering tension in the room shifted, the air growing thick with a different kind of energy. The memory of the harsh words receded, replaced by the magnetic pull you always felt towards him. He leaned in, his breath warm against your ear.
"Can we... can we forget about the argument, just for a little while?" he whispered, his voice husky.
Your own breath hitched. The desire that had been simmering beneath the surface of your anger now surged to the forefront. You nodded, your eyes locked on his.
He closed the remaining distance between you, his lips brushing against yours in a feather-light touch that sent shivers down your spine. The frantic tangle of your mouths intensified, a desperate claiming that went beyond mere kissing. You tasted the lingering bitterness of your argument mingling with the raw, underlying desire that had always simmered between you. "Telemachus," you gasped, the word torn from your throat as his teeth grazed your lower lip, a possessive mark that sent a shiver down your spine.
"Y/N," he responded, his voice a low growl against your ear, his breath hot and uneven. "Tell me you want this. Tell me you want me." His hands, now insistent and knowing, slid beneath your tunic, the rough fabric a stark contrast to the heat radiating from his touch as he cupped the weight of your breast. His gaze lingered, a spark of pure desire igniting in his dark eyes before his lips followed, leaving a trail of fire down your throat to the soft curve of your collarbone. You arched against him, a soft moan escaping your lips as his mouth closed over a sensitive peak, his tongue teasing and swirling, sending shivers of pleasure through you.
"I do," you whispered fiercely, your own hands clutching at his shoulders, the muscles beneath your fingertips taut with tension and need. "More than anything. Make me forget everything else." You fumbled with the fastenings of his own tunic, eager to feel his skin against yours. The roughspun fabric gave way, and you reveled in the feel of his warm chest beneath your hands, the steady beat of his heart a comforting rhythm against your palm. You tangled your fingers in the short hairs at the nape of his neck, pulling him closer as his mouth trailed lower, his breath hot against your skin.
He lifted you, carrying you effortlessly to the bed, the sudden shift in position heightening the anticipation that thrummed between you. As he laid you down, his gaze never left yours, a silent promise of the pleasure to come. He followed you onto the mattress, his body pressing against yours, the hard planes of his chest and thighs a delicious weight.
His kisses grew deeper, more demanding, each touch igniting a fresh wave of sensation. His hand slid lower, tracing the curve of your hip, dipping beneath the edge of your remaining garment to explore the sensitive skin there. You gasped as his fingers found their mark, a pleasurable ache blooming deep within you.
"Y/N," he groaned, his voice thick with desire, nipping gently at your lower lip before claiming your mouth again. His hands, no longer hesitant, roamed with a confident familiarity over your curves. "Gods, I've missed this," he murmured against your skin as he cupped the swell of your breast.
"And I, you," you whispered, your own hands mirroring his exploration, tracing the hard muscles of his shoulders and back. "Don't ever... don't ever let us fight like that again."
He pulled back slightly, his dark eyes blazing into yours. "Never," he vowed, his thumb stroking your cheekbone. "It tears me apart." He then dipped his head, his lips leaving a trail of fire down your throat. "You feel so good," he groaned, his breath hot against your collarbone.
You shifted beneath him, your own hands exploring his body with equal fervor. You traced the line of his jaw, the curve of his ear, the strong column of his neck. You reveled in the feel of his taut muscles, the way he shuddered beneath your touch. His body pressed against yours. "Forgive me?" he murmured, his lips nuzzling your ear.
"Already have," you breathed, your hands tangling in his hair, pulling him closer for a deep, searching kiss. "Just… show me how sorry you are."
He obliged, his lips leaving yours to blaze a trail down your throat, each kiss a searing brand. "This is what I want," he murmured against the frantic pulse at your neck. "You. Just you."
You choked out a moan, your breath catching in your throat. "Gods, yes. Don't stop." You arched against his touch, offering yourself more fully to his touch. He moved between your legs, his gaze locking with yours, a silent question passing between you. You answered with a soft sigh and a slight parting of your thighs, an invitation he readily accepted.
As he pressed against your entrance, a gasp escaped your lips, a mixture of anticipation and a primal ache. "Are you ready for me?" he rasped, his breath hot against your thigh.
"Yes," you cried out, your hips lifting to meet his. "Please, Telemachus. Now."
The first slow slide was electric, a searing connection that stole your breath. You cried out, your body arching off the bed as he filled you completely. "Oh, gods," you choked out, clinging to his shoulders.
"So good. So tight." He remained still for a moment, allowing you both to adjust to the intimacy, his eyes locked on yours, his expression a mixture of possessiveness and pure pleasure. "Does it feel right?" he finally managed, his voice strained.
"Perfect," you whispered, your nails digging into his back. "Don't wait."
He began to move, each thrust deeper and more insistent than the last. Your bodies slapped together, the rhythmic sound echoing in the small room, punctuated by your ragged breaths and soft moans. "Say my name," he urged, his hands gripping your hips, guiding your movements.
"Telemachus," you cried out, your head thrashing against the pillow. "Oh, Telemachus, yes. Harder."
He obliged, his pace quickening, the intensity building with each stroke. "You're driving me mad," he groaned, his teeth gritting. "So hot. So wet."
You gasped, your senses reeling, the world narrowing to the feel of his cock inside you. "Don't stop… I'm so close."
"So am I," he rasped, his breath coming in short, sharp bursts. "Hold on to me, Y/N."
And then the world shattered into a kaleidoscope of sensation. Your cries mingled with his guttural roar as the waves of pleasure crashed over you, your bodies convulsing in unison. You clung to each other, every muscle in your body clenched tight, the intensity almost unbearable, yet exquisitely so.
Slowly, the tremors subsided, leaving you both breathless and slick with sweat. He collapsed against you, his weight a comforting anchor. His lips found the sensitive skin of your neck, leaving a trail of damp kisses. "Mine," he murmured possessively. "You're mine."
You tightened your embrace, your fingers stroking the damp hair at his nape. "Always," you whispered back, the word a silent promise in the quiet aftermath. "Always."
Later, as the first rays of dawn peeked through your window, you lay tangled together, the remnants of your passionate reconciliation scattered around the room. The silence was comfortable now, filled with the soft rhythm of your breathing and the occasional contented sigh. Telemachus held you close, his arm a warm weight across your waist, his lips pressed softly against your hair. The argument felt distant, a storm that had passed, leaving behind a renewed sense of closeness and understanding. In the quiet aftermath, you knew that even amidst the chaos of your lives, the bond you shared was a constant, a fiery anchor that could weather any storm.

dog hybrid!simon riley can't get over the thought, the fact that you belong to him — and this does not even need to be voiced or confirmed by anyone, because the mere presence of simon's looming figure next to yours, or the brightness of his bites adorning your fragile neck, already speak volumes.
this is reflected in the way you smell of simon, spending time with him so often, in his bed, that the tart aroma permeates your entire skin, over numerous hickeys and prints from the sharp teeth's, bruising marks covering you from your feet and up, until lingering where his potent cum still oozes out of you.
he snarls at anyone who approaches you, a vile dog, while you reach out with your hand to scratch behind the pointy fluffy ears that are slightly pressed against his skull, simon's pale lips forming to bare his teeth's, the tail does not wag at all, but only freezes, and you realize that you urgently need to lead simon away.
simon will growl under his breath, wrinkle his nose because even such a short encounter makes him smell someone else's smell on you, disgusting, one that makes him bend and manhandle your soft body as soon as you are locked in his room.
his meaty cock would piston in your glossy pussy, already sloppy with oozing slick that mingles with his precum, as simon pummels you into the creaking bed, your drooling face burrowed in his musky pillows, breathing in his scent as he pounds against your spongy spot, gummy walls pulsing rapidly with each hastening thrusts of his.
everytime simon fucks you he wants it to take, desperate to have a chance to knot your creaming hole when your body ripples in orgasm, voice strained with chocked mewls as your cunt clamps and seizes around his fat length, but, he isn't done yet, still fucking into your gooey, tightening pussy.
you're his, his calming and at the same time the cause of his simultaneous madness, when simon leans against your ear with growling claims — “yau're mine, fucking min', my preciaus„ as his tail thumps against the sheets beneath, lips and teeth suddenly latching against your pulse.
tomorrow there would be a bright, aching mark, along with many others scattered along your sore body, but at least this time simon would sit calmly next to you, hiding his satisfied grin in the crook of your neck.

The name of that full moon sounds like the name of a metal band, doesn’t it, Bunny? A potent portal of self-reflection, clarity, healing and strength is opening up on March 14th, 2025. Let’s see what it’ll bring for you. To pick a pile don’t overthink it; choose the one that draws you in the most while thinking about the reading’s intent. Only take what resonates! Love, Matcha ♡
p.s. I used the art oracles by Katya Tylevich, it’s an oracle with each card representing an artist, and the 3 piles had the same card show up; Diane Arbus. Her art is notable for its representation of marginalized subjects, its psychological intensity and its raw aesthetic. ☆ masterlist

Pile 1 ₊˚.༄
Your spirit guides have been calling you to look deeper within yourself and you’re answering the call. You’re delving in the shadows. Realizing where you’ve been lying to yourself, doing one thing but feeling the other. You’re reading between the lines of your soul, finding the truth of your ego in your past actions. You’re being vulnerable and strong. You understand that you can’t run away from your own toxic patterns, there’s no other way than through. However, you’re realizing that even though you need to put up with your own toxic tendencies, you do not have to put up with toxic people. Some relationships are not working for you anymore. You’ll recognize them in the way they make you feel; slow, old, fragile, hazy. They want you to choose between them and your values. There might be a divinely orchestrated heartbreak or separation. It doesn’t have to be romantic, it could also be leaving a job, a community or an old mindset that felt part of who you were. This event will powerfully and unexpectedly change you. It’ll mainly help you to forgive yourself for your past mistakes, mainly related to love relationships, platonic or romantic. You’ll understand that healing needs time and patience. Sometimes the best action is stillness. However, your manifestations are waiting for you so take the time you need to rest but get up and take action as soon as possible.
↳ book a personal reading with me on ko-fi ★

Pile 2 ⊹˚˖ ☆
You’re stepping into a more confident, charismatic and compassionate self. You’re following your heart and diving deep into your emotional and romantic side. You’re being more vulnerable with yourself and with others and it’s impacting positively your peers. They see you as someone sweet, soft and compassionate. Your presence is healing to people, you’re helping them heal their heart chakra. Some people might realize they’re in love with you, feeling the butterflies in their stomach when they see you. Their cheeks get so hot and they’re so excited to greet you, you’re so precious. It can also be platonic, like colleagues realizing they really love working with you. You’re understanding your influence on your surroundings, realizing that you manifested this love and harmony by visualizing it in your third eye. If you’ve been listening to frequencies, doing meditation or any other healing spiritual practice, it’s bearing its fruits. You’re developing a new abundance mindset that’s removing a lot of blockages related to your fears of the unknown. You know you’re supported by your community (in the 3d or spiritual), so you know you’ll be okay. I see a beautiful and mysterious opportunity coming to you, brought to you by people who love you.
↳ book a personal reading with me on ko-fi ★

Pile 3 ‧₊˚ ♡
A spiritual guide as a gift for you! It’s someone from your past life, someone that holds you deep in their heart, it might be a lover. It could also be you but your identity from a past life. Something in your life might seem like it’s lacking vitality, but your spirit guide is putting the life back into it. They’re showing you how one thing can take many forms, and have many different lives. It might be that your love life or your career seemed to be dying but it’s not, surprise! It’s actually reaching new heights and you’re gonna be embodying a more confident and strong self through it. It’ll come with its challenges but you have everything you need to surmount them, you’re so protected from your spirit guides anyway, they all have your back in this new venture coming your way. They’re also going to be especially attentive when it comes to your manifestations on this worm moon, so take advantage of it. Open your heart to new opportunities because the portal this moon is opening for you is full of action and love. If you’ve been manifesting your soulmate, just know they’re coming closer! I also sense that friends from a past life are coming back to unite with you. Shed your old skin and embody a fresher sense of self to get ready for it. Tap into your occult knowledge.

CHARACTERS: Octavian, you/reader
WARNINGS/TAGS: Parental yandere, wrist massage, wrist pain, slightly infantilizing behavior
WORD COUNT: 983
AUTHOR'S NOTE: This is a commission! Thank you to the commissioner! I enjoyed writing this! <3

Almost immediately does Octavian notice something off about you; you wince when picking things up, you rub your own wrists a lot. When he questions you about this, however, you seem adamant that everything is fine and there isn't an issue that needs addressing. This response alone raises every alarm inside of his head.
Of course, he doesn't allow this behavior to continue for very long at all, giving you time to maybe come to him and finally say something. But you don't, and his concern for you begins to overwhelm any sort of patience he has left in him.
His last straw is when he sees you rubbing at your wrists and groaning to yourself while doing so. That sound- such a pained expression makes him wince as though the pain had been inflicted upon him instead of you.
No longer is it acceptable for you to be dealing with this alone.
"Why haven't you said anything?" he demands quietly, the tension evident within his tone. There's anger and frustration, but it's not aimed towards you; rather, it's aimed at your suffering. "I thought you'd come to me if you're in pain, but I'm tired of just watching you suffer. Tell me what's wrong, (Y/n)."
It's very rare for him to pull out the stern voice, the parental one that leaves no room for disagreement or argument.
You go silent, unsure what to say.
He takes your hands into his, gently as if you're made of fragile glass. You don't pull away when he lifts up your sleeves, like he's expecting to see something horrific, only to see nothing.
Octavian softly squeezes your wrists, clicking his tongue when realizing the issue: they're swollen. He could feel it by applying only the slightest amount of pressure.
"What have you been doing?" Octavian murmurs. He takes off his gloves and gently touches where he squeezed moments earlier. His fingers are cold, yet it's soothing.
"Copies of scrolls," you murmur with a shrug. "Lots of them, lately."
"You know better than that."
"I can handle it..."
Your words earn a sigh from him as he stands. As he disappears upstairs for a brief moment, you fiddle around with some papers, feeling a bit nervous. This must've been the longest you've gone without telling him about any discomfort. Not like you can go long, he usually notices right away.
"Give me your hands," Octavian says after a few minutes, reappearing with a bottle of something you don't recognize and a bowl.
"...what for?" you ask, drawing your hands towards your chest defensively.
"I promise, I'm not hungry for hands," he chuckles softly. "Just let your Papa take care of you?" He holds one of his own hands out towards you, palm up.
Your gaze shifts to his open palm before you relent and slowly reach out both of your hands, earning a pleased hum from the older vampire who then takes the bowl, sitting in front of you.
Octavian pours the bottle over the water that's already inside of the bowl, swirling it around so that the contents mix thoroughly.
"What's that?" you ask.
"A balm that works wonders for your poor wrist." The mixture smells herbal, almost minty but stronger than that. Not too strong to become overwhelming, but it's definitely potent. "I've been alive long enough to make quite a few handy recipes like this one. When I was still human, I had a lot of bad chronic pain in my wrists."
"And that went away with being a vampire?"
He shakes his head. "Sadly not, but I did develop a good way to alleviate the pain whenever it flares up, so it's much more manageable. The super strength that comes with being a vampire did also do wonders too, even if it didn't necessarily cure it."
Gently does Octavian hold your hand in his while the other dips into the cool water, just warm enough for comfort, and slowly swirls around. The mixture itself gives a slight tingling sensation at first touch, cooling further.
Octavian is silent while he repeats this process on your other hand, looking pensive while he massages them. You notice that, despite the intensity in his expression, his movements remain as delicate as ever; he rubs and rolls your joints ever so gently while holding your palm between both of his hands, making sure that every part of your hands and wrists receive thorough care.
"Why didn't you tell me?" he finally asks after several quiet minutes of the massage. When he looks up at you, you see pain in his eyes.
It almost makes you feel guilty.
You shrug. "I'm not a baby, feels weird if I go whining to you about something this small."
"But you are my baby," Octavian responds firmly. "And I'd prefer to know these things so I can help you, whether its a paper cut, or a broken bone." He pauses. "Extra emphasis on a broken bone, though."
He smiles warmly, watching how you return his smile before turning back towards his work. By now the numbing has begun, taking full effect to leave only a weak, tingling sensation in your hand and wrist.
For a few more minutes he continues massaging your wrists, kneading the skin carefully until he feels that they're both satisfied. He pulls out a roll of bandages, carefully wrapping one around your wrist until the end is secured with a clip.
"Aaaaand there we go," he coos, kissing the top of your hand. "Better?"
"Much better..." you murmur with a nod, smiling. "Thanks."
"You don't need to thank me, sweetheart. Just promise you'll come to me next time, okay?"
"Okay," you hum. "I promise."
"Good. Oh, and you're taking a break from writing." You open your mouth to argue, but he wags a finger in front of you. "Ah-ah! No arguing, Papa knows best."

virgin!sukuna x virgin!reader, modern delinquent au

request: can you write modern au!sukuna and fem reader taking each others virginity with a established relationship tags: fluff, fingering, penetration, petnames (princess, baby, babygirl), sukuna is a delinquent; @mangiswig notes: minors dni, sukuna is lowkey ooc wc: 2.0k
Despite spending a significant portion of his formative years behind bars, the weight of consequence failed to curb the rebellious spirit of Sukuna. Emerging from the confines of incarceration with a hardened demeanor and a penchant for defiance, he returned to the streets that had once ensnared him with a renewed sense of determination. To Sukuna, the rules of society were nothing more than shackles, constraining him from the freedom he craved and the life he believed he deserved.
Fuelled by a potent cocktail of resentment and bravado, Sukuna navigated the urban landscape with the swagger of someone who had stared into the abyss and refused to blink. From petty theft to brazen acts of vandalism, he left a trail of chaos in his wake, a testament to the indelible mark of his troubled past. For Sukuna, the cycle of delinquency was a familiar refrain, a symphony of defiance that echoed through the corridors of his consciousness, a reminder of the streets that had shaped him and the choices that had defined him.
Yet Sukuna found an unexpected beacon of light in the form of you, a college student whose innocence and sweetness stood in stark contrast to his own turbulent world. Your love was a fragile bloom in the midst of concrete, delicate yet resilient, defying the odds with each passing day. Drawn to your gentle spirit and unwavering kindness,Sukuna found himself navigating unfamiliar territory, his rough edges softened by the warmth of your affection.
For almost a year now, you have been the anchor in Sukuna's stormy sea, a steady presence amidst the chaos of his life. With your unwavering belief in his capacity for change and your steadfast support, you became his guiding star, illuminating the darkest corners of his soul with the light of your love. Despite the whispers of doubt that lingered in the recesses of his mind, Sukuna couldn't deny the profound impact you had on his life, your presence a balm to his weary heart.
Your love for Sukuna knew no bounds, transcending the boundaries of societal norms and expectations. Despite the whispers of caution that echoed through the halls of your mind, you refused to turn away from the tumultuous storm that raged within him. To you, Sukuna was more than just the sum of his mistakes; he was a complex tapestry of darkness and light, a flawed masterpiece in need of redemption.
While others cowered in fear at the mere mention of his name, you stood unwavering by his side, your love a shield against the slings and arrows of judgment. You understood the depths of his anger, the ferocity of his defiance, yet you chose to love him all the same. For you, love was not about changing someone into who they should be, but rather embracing them for who they were, scars and all.
The decision weighed heavily on your heart, a tender offering you longed to bestow upon Sukuna, a symbol of your unwavering commitment to your love. With trembling hands and a courage born of devotion, you found yourself standing before him, your heart laid bare in the flickering light of your shared intimacy. “I want you to take my virginity tonight, Sukuna. I’m yours, fully.”
As your words pierced the air, a surge of conflicting emotions washed over Sukuna. His heart quickened with excitement, the prospect of possessing you in such an intimate way igniting a primal fire within him. Yet, beneath the surface, a flicker of nervousness danced in the depths of his eyes, betraying the weight of responsibility he felt in this moment. There was something he never told you. Sukuna, the known and feared criminal, was a virgin himself. He didn’t have the chance to lose it since most of his teen years were spent in jail and he met you shortly after his release. Yet, Sukuna was sure that he would manage to not have to confess to his virginity.
Yet his dominant nature surged forth, a primal instinct asserting its dominance over his senses. With a predatory gleam in his eyes, Sukunas demeanor shifted, his posture becoming more assertive, more commanding. He saw this as an opportunity to claim you, to mark you as his own in the most intimate way possible. “Get on the bed, baby”, and you followed his command.
With a magnetic pull, Sukuna led you to his bed, your eyes locked in a heated exchange of desire and anticipation. The air was charged with electricity, every touch igniting a wildfire of longing between you. As you sank into the soft embrace of the mattress, a primal hunger consumed you, driving you to explore each other with an urgency born of passion.
With a possessive grip, Sukuna claimed your lips in a searing kiss, his dominance asserting itself with every fervent movement. His hands traced the curves of your body with a possessive intensity, his touch igniting a feverish need within you. You yielded to him willingly, your own desire mingling with his in a potent cocktail of longing and surrender.
“You’re so pretty, baby. I love you so much.”
Your clothes became mere obstacles, discarded in a frenzy of desire as you bared yourselves to each other without reservation. With each caress, each whispered promise, you delved deeper into the depths of your desire, your bodies becoming one in a dance of carnal pleasure and primal need.
“You belong to me, baby. All of you. Only to me. I’ll be your first and your last.”
As your passion reached its zenith, you lost yourselves in each other, your moans of ecstasy filling the air as you surrendered to the intoxicating rhythm of your desire. In that moment, on Sukuna's bed, you were consumed by the flames of your passion, your love, a blazing inferno that burned brighter with every touch, every kiss, every whispered promise of forever.
With a possessive hunger burning in his eyes, Sukuna trailed his fingers along your trembling form, tracing the contours of your body with a reverence that bordered on worship. As he settled between your parted thighs, he felt your pulse quicken beneath his touch, your breath hitching in anticipation of the ecstasy to come.
“You’re already soaked, princess. Been waiting for this, huh?”
With a predatory grace, he teased you with feather-light caresses, his fingers dancing over your skin in a tantalizing rhythm. Your soft gasps filled the room as he explored your most intimate depths, his touch sending shivers of pleasure cascading through your body.
With each stroke, he felt you surrendering to him, your barriers crumbling in the face of his relentless desire. He relished in the power he held over you, reveling in the way you arched into his touch, your cries of pleasure music to his ears, the way your wet pussy clenched and pulsated around his slender fingers. With a primal hunger driving him forward, Sukuna delved deeper into you, his fingers becoming an extension of his own desire as he brought you to the brink of ecstasy again and again.
“Don’t cum yet, babygirl. You wanted something else inside you, remember? Do you still want it?”
“Y–yes…ahh…f–fuck, yes, please, Sukuna.”
As Sukuna's touch grew bolder, you surrendered completely to the sensations coursing through your body. With each deliberate stroke of his fingers, you melted further into submission, your moans filling the air as you abandoned yourself to the overwhelming pleasure he bestowed upon you.
Your body quivered with every skilled movement, each sensation amplified by the electric tension that crackled between you. Your breath hitched with every caress, your heart racing as you surrendered to the blissful torment of his dominance.
With a possessive hunger burning in his eyes, Sukuna reveled in the sight of you laid bare before him, your submissive surrender stoking the flames of his desire to new heights. Your moans of pure lust were like a siren's song, drawing him deeper into the abyss of his own primal urges.
Driven by an insatiable hunger, Sukuna's touch grew more demanding, more possessive, his own arousal building with each intoxicating sound that escaped your lips. With each whimper of pleasure, he felt the intoxicating rush of power surging through his veins, his dominance asserting itself with an almost feral intensity.
“I think you’re ready, baby.”
Sukuna positioned himself above you, your submissive form trembling with anticipation beneath him. With a possessive grip, he guided himself to your entrance, the throbbing heat of his arousal pressing against your quivering flesh. As he poised himself at the threshold of your innocence, a fierce determination coursed through him, driving him forward with an urgency born of primal desire. With a forceful thrust, he pushed himself inside your pussy, the sensation of your tight warmth enveloping him like a velvet vice.
“Oh– Fuck…fuck, it’s tight. You feel so fucking good, baby.”
You gasped at the intrusion, your body tensing with a mixture of pleasure and pain. With each powerful thrust, Sukuna claimed you as his own, his dominant nature asserting itself with every primal movement. As you moved together in a primal dance of passion and possession, Sukuna felt a surge of ecstasy and lust coursing through him. You felt so good stretching around him, he could feel your heartbeat through your wet, tight cunt.
As your bodies intertwined in the fervor of your passion, Sukuna's arousal reached a crescendo, the intensity of the moment threatening to overwhelm him entirely. With each hard, deep thrust, he felt himself teetering on the edge of ecstasy, his primal instincts driving him ever closer to the brink. He pounded into you like a wild animal, feeling the undying urge to not only claim your soul as his but also your body.
“Oh fuck…oh fuck no.”
But then, in a sudden and unexpected rush, Sukuna's control slipped away, his body betraying him in the most primal of ways. With a gasp of disbelief, he felt his release wash over him, his climax crashing over him with a force that left him trembling in its wake.
For a moment, time seemed to stand still as Sukuna grappled with the intensity of his own pleasure, his body pulsing with the aftershocks of his release. And as he collapsed against you, his breath coming in ragged gasps, he realized with a sinking feeling that he had cum far sooner than he had anticipated.
“…’kuna?”, your eyes shot wide, feeling him release his hot cum inside you. Usually it takes you far longer to get him to finish with your mouth.
In the hazy aftermath of their passion, Sukuna's heart raced with a mixture of embarrassment and shame, his mind reeling with the realization that he had revealed his virginity in the most humiliating of ways. And as he looked into your eyes, he saw the confusion and concern reflected in your gaze, knowing that he would have to find a way to explain himself, even as his own insecurities threatened to consume him. Slowly he pulled out and grabbed the box of tissues next to his bed to clean you up.
With a heavy heart, he knew that he couldn't keep his secret any longer, not from you, not from the woman he loved more than life itself.
Summoning every ounce of courage he possessed, Sukuna steeled himself for the confession that weighed heavily upon his soul. With slightly trembling hands and a voice thick with emotion, he reached out to you, his eyes searching yours for understanding and acceptance.
"Baby," he began, his words coming out in a rush as he struggled to find the right ones. "I need to tell you something...something I should have told you before."
As he spoke, Sukuna felt the weight of his secret lifting from his shoulders, replaced by a sense of vulnerability unlike anything he had ever known. With each word, he bared his soul to you, revealing the truth of his inexperience, his virginity laid bare for you to see.
To his surprise, your reaction was not one of judgment or scorn, but of compassion and understanding. With a gentle touch, you reached out to him, your eyes filled with love and acceptance.
"Sukuna," you whispered, your voice barely above a whisper. "It doesn't matter to me. What matters is us, and the love we share. I’m yours and you’re mine."

❛ 𝓈𝑜𝓁𝒶𝓃𝒶𝒸𝑒𝒶𝑒 ❜ 𝜗𝜚 𝑔𝑒𝑜 𝓍 𝑔𝓃! 𝓇𝑒𝒶𝒹𝑒𝓇
𝓈𝓎𝓃𝑜𝓅𝓈𝒾𝓈: THIS IS PART TWO! If you haven’t read [ 𝓅𝒶𝓇𝓉 𝑜𝓃𝑒 ], make sure you catch up first! Again I'm sooo sorry—I didn’t realize Tumblr had a word count limit, so I definitely went overboard. My bad. (Also, the header? Just for fun—just me being forever haunted by this art.)
Summary—where the tension between you and Geo thickens like venom in the air. What binds you brews slow and sharp, a toxic mix of unspoken truths and something neither of you can name.
It’s fragile. Addictive. And as it sinks deeper, you both know—this isn’t something you can walk away from.
But can you survive what it’s turning into?
Or will it devour you both?

Every breath you took carried the bitterness of it.
You couldn’t shake the feeling that no matter how much you tried to show who you really were, there was always something hidden beneath. Something toxic, something no one ever bothered to understand.
You were a plant no one cared enough to take care of, a mind no one ever wanted to see, only the surface—the mask you wore to keep yourself intact, the version of you that was palatable, easy to digest.
It wasn’t about your thoughts, your ideas, your emotions—it was about what they could take from you, what they could mold you into.
The soft, sweet persona they wanted you to be.
The version they could control.
The version they could consume.
You were always a belladonna—a striking, dark berry with soft, inviting green leaves, so beautiful in its deadly way, yet filled with a poison so potent that no one could ever truly consume you.
Too much to handle. Too much to bear.
A dangerous allure, a beautiful venom that no one could take in without choking on the truth of who you really were. And maybe that’s why no one ever truly saw you. They only wanted the delicate bloom, the surface—the easy parts. The parts were simple to look at, and simple to admire.
They never wanted the poison.
The world didn’t want you for your mind. It wanted your beauty, the image of you, soft and harmless. And no one could handle what was really inside—what you really felt.
They wanted what they could touch without being burned. The pieces of you that were easy to handle, easy to mold, the parts that could fit into the illusion they’d built around you.
Because no one could ever truly swallow the poison.
No one could bear the weight of the truth that came with it.
The pain clung to you, heavy and suffocating, a reminder of everything you couldn’t escape—of the poison everyone seemed to see in you.
You wondered if you’d ever be more than that, more than the mask you wore, more than the pieces of you that people could control, twist into something they could digest. Before you could even retreat into the quiet of your mind, that damn poison of his move.
Your eyes catches Subaru moving closer, his unreadable gaze settling on you.
There was something in his eyes—a flicker, something fleeting, like guilt, frustration... maybe even fear?
No, no, no—It definitely unsettled you more than it should have. He reached out, his hand, but the moment his fingers came near you, a surge of panic coursed through you, and you stepped back instinctively as if his touch could kill you.
“Don’t,” you whispered, your voice barely there, trembling with the weight of everything you couldn't say. “Don’t touch me, Subaru…”
But, of course, he didn’t listen.
In a breathless blur, Subaru closed the space between you—his body pressing into yours with a force that felt more like a warning than comfort. He cornered you against the closet wall, his presence overwhelming, his eyes sharp as blades as they bore down on you.
The tears you’d already let go many times before, finally broke through again, slipping past the mask you'd worn for so long, unraveling everything you’d kept so tightly wound. You stared up at him, your voice lost somewhere between shame and embarrassment, feeling small—so small—beneath the weight of his stare.
Exposed in every way you hated.
The words clawed their way up your throat, scraping against the ache in your chest as you beat your fists against him—soft, frantic, useless. He didn’t even flinch.
“How dare you pull me into this...” you choked out, voice hoarse, each word punching through the silence like shattered glass. “How dare I pull myself into this…?”
You turned your face away, shutting your eyes tight—trying to dam the rising wave inside you. But it didn’t stop. “And yet... you won’t even be in it with me?” Your voice cracked as it dropped lower, almost trembling. “You’re so fucking possessive—but you don’t care. You never even cared how it feels on my end, did you?”
Subaru’s eyes narrowed as your words hit him—sharp, accusing, too full of something he didn’t know how to handle. His brows knit tighter, not in empathy, but in growing discomfort, in the weight of an expectation he’d never invited.
He hadn’t seen it coming. Not like this.
The breakdown—the crash out—was worse than anything he’d ever warned you about. And for a split second, Subaru genuinely thought you’d lost it. Very much unhinged, unpredictable. Maybe even dangerous…? He wouldn't admit it, but yeah, it scared the hell out of him. You looked like you might kill him… And still, he didn’t move.
He just stood there, eerily calm, arms at his sides, expression carved from stone as you unraveled right in front of him. Your voice broke. Your fists hit his chest. And he didn’t flinch. Not once. As if the chaos couldn’t touch him. As if you weren’t even real.
No sympathy. No guilt. No warmth.
Just that same unreadable stillness he wore like armor.
Then finally, his voice cut through the silence—precise, and cold.
“…I never said I didn’t care.”
It came out like glass—sharp and brittle as if it scraped against something frozen inside him just to be spoken aloud. His hand reached out—not gently, never gently—and tilted your chin until your eyes met his again. There was no softness there. Just a flicker of restrained emotion, sharp around the edges, as though feeling anything at all was beneath him.
“Not care?” he repeated, his tone suddenly bitter. “Of course I fucking care. And I fucking hate that I do. I don’t even know what the hell it means either. I never wanted this. Any of this.”
Subaru had always kept his distance from things like this. Again, Romance. Sex. Intimacy. They were irrelevant distractions—useless, messy, and stupid. People who chased that sort of connection always ended up weak or dependent. That kind of vulnerability disgusted him.
And the idea of being part of it? Being someone’s something?
It made his skin crawl.
“I’m not built for that,” he said flatly, voice lowering, almost like he was confessing something he shouldn’t. “I don’t want it. I’ve never wanted it. Not with anyone.”
There was no apology in his tone—just cold honesty.
Not cruel, but detached, like he was stating a fact you’d simply failed to see. “I don’t think about people that way. I don’t want anyone like that. Never have. The idea of it—it doesn’t make sense. It’s not worth the time. Not worth the energy. And it’s beneath me.” But there was something else in his voice, buried under the frost. Something like confusion. Or maybe even fear.
He looked at you then, fully—your tears, your tiredness, your pain—and for a second, it almost cracked through. Almost.
“Why do you care so much?”
He asked suddenly, and his voice wasn’t sharp this time. It was quieter, rawer. Like he didn’t understand any of this—like he couldn’t fathom why you would put yourself through it.
The question hung there, heavy and quiet.
Why did you care?
Because to him, it was all just poison.
And he’d never asked for a taste.
You stared at him. For a long, aching moment, the silence stretched so thin it felt like it might snap in half.
Your breathing was still shaky, your hands trembling slightly by your sides now instead of pressed to his chest. You weren’t crying anymore—but that didn’t mean you weren’t hurting. The tears had stopped only because there was nothing left to spill.
You swallowed, hard.
“Because I see you,” you said finally, voice hoarse but steady.
You glanced down briefly, eyes catching the space separating you both—close, but not close enough. “I know you didn’t ask for this. I know you never wanted anyone getting this close. And you probably hate that I did. That I saw past the version you keep showing the everyone.”
You shook your head slowly, not in regret, but in something quieter. Sadder. “But I care, Subaru. I care because somewhere along the way, without trying, you got to me. Not the cold, calculated guy everyone thinks you are. Not the one who always acts like he’s in control, above like nothing sticks. I’m talking about you. The one who still bleeds, even if you pretend you don’t. The one who freezes up when something actually gets under your skin.”
Your eyes found him again, and your voice lowered, softer now, not pleading—just honest.
“I never wanted anything you couldn’t give. I wasn’t trying to change you, or fix you, or force you into something you’re not. That was never the point.”
You paused for a breath, but it barely helped.
Everything in you felt tight, coiled, like this confession had been clawing at your ribs for too long.
“I just… couldn’t ignore what’s between us. Like, forget fucking Crowe, like he didn’t convince me shit—I wanted to talk to you on my own. Even if it doesn’t make sense. Even if it’s messy and complicated. I feel it. And I know you do too, whether you admit it or not.” You released a soft sigh, tired, wistful.
“I’d be lying if I said you didn’t make me feel safe sometimes. And maybe I’m the only person who’s ever gotten under your skin enough to make you feel anything. You try to hide it, but I’ve seen it—how you act around me. You don’t have to say it. I already know.”
Another pause, this one laced with something like resignation.
Your shoulders dropped just a little.
“I know this isn’t love. Not like people think it should be. That’s not what this is. That’s not who we are.” You took a step back—just one. Just enough to breathe without brushing against his walls, the ones he always keeps up, even now.
“But whatever this is?” You gestured vaguely, helplessly, between your chests. “It’s real. It means something. Even if we never name it. Even if it irritates or scares the hell out of you. We’re both emotional, but we carry it differently. You bury yours. I try to make sense of mine. And somehow, that created something here—between us—that neither of us planned for.”
You hesitated.
You weren’t sure if your voice cracked or if it just sounded cracked from the inside.
“And maybe you’ll never feel it the way I do. Maybe this will always taste like something bitter to you, something wrong.” You gave a small, bitter laugh—empty, aching.
“Maybe to you, it’s just poison.”
You looked at him then, like you were finally letting something go.
“But even poison has roots.”
Subaru stood there, frozen—your words weighing down on him like they’d been waiting for years to land. His fingers, still wrapped around your wrists, began to loosen. Not because he wanted to let go, but because he didn’t know what the hell else to do.
Because suddenly, nothing made sense. He didn’t get it.
Why you? Why now?
Why here—in a goddamn closet, of all places?
You, with your eyes that didn’t flinch. You, who always said too much and still somehow knew when to stop talking. You, who never looked away from him like the others did.
And now you’d gone and seen him. The version he never let surface. The one buried beneath a thousand deflections and a mask carved so clean he’d started to believe it himself.
He tried to ignore it. Tried to shove it back down like he always did. But your words had already split the surface. The cracks were showing. His armor was rattling loose at the edges, and you—you—weren’t looking away.
That rattled him more than anything else.
His gaze locked on yours, desperate to catch you in a lie. To find some sign that this was just another manipulation, another twisted game. Because that, at least, would be easier. Easier to destroy. Easier to forget.
But you weren’t bluffing.
You stood there, tired and unshaken, not trying to fix him, not trying to win—just being. And that kind of honesty, that kind of quiet truth, scared him in ways he didn’t have names for.
His jaw clenched. His grip faltered.
“…Why do you have to do this?” he muttered, voice barely audible. It wasn’t laced with anger. It was too soft for that. Too lost. Like he was begging you not to pull him further into something he couldn’t control.
You exhaled a hollow sound that echoed like a laugh stripped of joy. Tired. Real. You didn’t pull away. You didn’t push forward. You just looked at him, like you already knew what he was trying so hard not to feel. His hands dropped from your wrists completely now, hanging at his sides like they didn’t belong to him.
And in that fragile silence, you were still there. Unmoving. Unafraid.
Just you—the one person who had already called him out, stripped him bare, and still hadn’t walked away.
“Because I wanted to,” you said, quiet—like the answer should’ve been obvious. Your eyes didn’t waver. “You and I… we’re not stupid. We catch on fast, we read people faster. It’s not hard for us to figure out what most others miss.”
our voice dipped lower, steadier now. “And most people? They look at you and see exactly what you want them to. Controlled. Rude. Cold. Untouchable. Like you’re made of stone or something.”
You tilted your head slightly, watching him with a strange sort of calm. “But I’ve been paying attention. Really paying attention. And whether you admit it or not—you’re not as unreachable as you pretend to be.”
Seconds passed.
Heavy silence.
You let out a small breath and shook your head just a little, the barest trace of a smirk tugging at your lips. “Subaru Oogami. Ambitious. Intense. The type of guy who holds his breath until he wins or breaks trying. Always chasing something bigger, something higher—like staying still might kill you.”
"And me?” You shrugged, casual but not careless. “I’m the charming, assertive, overly expressive one, right? Social. Playful. Emotional.” You leaned in a little, tone softening. “But I’m not here to mess with you. I’m not here to fix you either.”
You met his eyes again, unwavering. “I’m here because I see you breaking. Not all at once, not dramatically. But slowly. Quietly. The kind of breaking that no one notices until it’s too late.”
You took a step forward. No drama. Just steady. Just close.
“I’m not trying to save you, Subaru. I just… I don’t want you to be alone in that silence. That’s all.” You gave a small, sad laugh. “People like us—we don’t scream for help. We just learn to live with the noise in our heads.”
The air between you felt fragile—like if either of you moved too fast, it might all fall apart.
“I’m not asking you to feel the same. I’m not trying to label this, or make it something it’s not.” Your words came softer now like they were just meant for him and no one else. “But whatever this is… it’s real. And I think you feel it too, even if it makes you sick to admit it.”
You exhaled slowly, the weight of your words finally settling.
“That’s all.” No demands. No strings. No expectations.
You just said it. Because it was the truth.
And maybe, if all he knew was poison—then this was the first drop of something clean.
Something honest, just to feel.
Outside, just beyond the thrum of bass and drunken laughter, Sol moved through the house like a shadow with purpose. The party noise dulled behind closed doors, leaving only the faint echo of the chaos below as he climbed the stairs—each step quiet, controlled.
His movements were calm on the surface, but just under his skin, something was stirring. That familiar pull in his chest, too stubborn to name and too loud to ignore. He told himself he had it handled. That he had a plan. That this was just another situation to manage.
But his hand flexed at his side.
He hated how unsure he felt.
The hallway was dim, lit only by a soft flicker from motion detected overhead, the scent of cheap cologne and spilled alcohol still clinging to the air. He didn’t hesitate. He didn’t need to. He knew exactly where he was going.
And if he was being honest—something about this moment felt like it mattered more than it should have.
Find you, pull you aside, lay it all out. Simple.
He’d waited long enough. He’d seen Crowe with you earlier—grinning like an idiot as he tugged you by the wrist toward the staircase. Sol had caught just enough of the conversation to know Crowe had sent you to grab the party games from one of the upstairs rooms.
Games. Right. He told himself that’s all it was.
You’d probably grabbed the stuff and got distracted. Maybe sat down. Maybe needed a breather from the noise. Maybe you were waiting for him, even. A small smirk tugged at his lips at the thought… then faded as quickly as it came. Because it had been too long.
He hadn’t seen you since.
And Crowe had come back downstairs alone.
Sol’s brows pinched together, his fingers threading through his hair in frustration. Okay… okay, chill. You’re overthinking again. You always do this. But that silence—it wasn’t normal. Not for this kind of party.
Not when it came to you.
It started scratching at the back of his mind. That creeping, whispering kind of worry that didn’t speak in words—just pressure. Gnawing, anxious pressure.
So he started looking.
One room at a time. The spare bedroom—empty. The office? Nothing. The upstairs bathroom—just towels and the scent of cheap soap. The balcony? No sign of you. Just wind and a couple discarded solo cups.
His jaw flexed.
Next came the hallway closet. He tugged it open—still nothing.
His steps picked up. Sharper. Quicker. His heart started to thud in his chest in that uncomfortable, too-loud kind of way. His palms were sweating now, and that usual smirk? Gone. Stripped off like a mask.
Where the hell were you? He tried one last room—completely empty.
He cursed under his breath, quiet but seething. Then he stopped. Froze. He heard something.
Not loud—just a faint sound. Voices, maybe? Soft. Muffled. Like someone trying not to be heard. His eyes narrowed as he followed it. His boots were soundless over the rug as he crept toward the end of the hall.
The closet door. The very last one.
Sol’s steps faltered as he approached it. Every movement was deliberate, but slow—as if his body already knew what he was about to find. His fingers brushed the cold metal of the doorknob, the chill of it sinking into his skin. He didn’t turn it—Not yet. He just held it there, like if he waited long enough, he could will the entire situation away.
But his instincts screamed at him, urging him forward.
With a subtle tilt of his head, he leaned in, listening.
Your voice. Soft. Strained. Like you were trying to hold something together, but it was slipping through your fingers. Tired. Was that…? His stomach twisted as he heard the exhaustion in your tone. The words weren’t clear, but the weight of them was.
You were drowning in something you couldn’t say.
Then came the second voice.
Not Crowe. Not some random, stumbling idiot from the party.
Geo. Fucking Subaru Oogami.
Sol’s breath caught, his body frozen in place, muscles locking up as a wave of disbelief washed over him. His stomach dropped, a feeling of cold emptiness spreading through him, hollowing him out—No way.
Sol didn’t dare blink. He couldn’t tear his eyes away from the sliver of light between the door and frame. Every inch of his body was screaming at him to turn and walk away. To pretend he didn’t hear anything, didn’t see anything.
But he stayed. Sol’s shifted his body slightly, pressing the side of his head closer to the narrow gap, the cool air from the closet wafting over his face.
His breath hitched in his throat as he glimpsed you and him inside.
Subaru, who had always carried that cold, invincible air, was barely holding himself together. sharp, brooding features. His usual unflinching demeanor cracked at the edges, the sharpness in his eyes dulling into something almost fragile.
His shoulders hunched forward, like a man on the verge of collapse. His fists were clenched tight at his sides, trembling as if he didn’t know what to do with himself anymore.
He didn’t speak. Not a word.
But the silence was louder than anything. It was heavy, oppressive—filling the space between you two with more tension than any words could ever create. He didn’t need to say anything. His silence was all-encompassing.
It told Sol everything.
Subaru was lost. And so were you.
That realization hit harder than any argument. Because at that moment, Sol could see it clearly. Subaru didn’t just look like a man caught in a moment. He looked like someone who had already lost the battle and was too proud to admit it.
The thing that hit Sol the hardest?
You weren’t fighting to get away.
You were just standing there. And Subaru?
Subaru wasn’t pushing you away. He wasn’t trying to run. He was just... frozen. Struggling to stay grounded in a world that suddenly didn’t make sense anymore.
It was everything Sol feared. And it made him feel small. It made him feel like he wasn’t the one who belonged there.
What the hell was happening?
You stepped in—just a little. Not because you felt sorry for him, but because you saw things clearly now.
Subaru wasn’t just being cold for the hell of it. He was worn down, running on fumes. Tired in that soul-deep kind of way. And yeah, maybe those words you dropped hit harder than he’d ever admit. Truth always tastes like poison to the ones who swallow silence for dinner.
You let your eyes stay on him. Really look.
Was he always this pale under bad lighting? Lips parted just slightly, like he was about to say something but couldn't find the words? And those aquamarine eyes—usually so sharp, so damn good at cutting people off before they got too close—now just looked... dazed.
Not by you. But by the weight of being seen.
He caught it. The look on your face. No pity. No judgment.
Just… recognition. That unspoken I know what it’s like.
That—more than anything—shook him.
He let out this scoff, low and tired, like the world had finally outed him and you were the last person he expected, “Why do you always do this?” he muttered, his voice rough around the edges. “Look at me like I’m not a fucking mess. Like you get it.”
You didn’t say anything. Didn’t have to.
You’d already said enough—maybe too much.
Any more honesty and it’d either finish him off or push the whole thing straight into cringe territory. So you just stood there, holding space for someone who didn’t even know how to ask for it.
“Damn it,” he hissed softly, voice fraying. “You're not supposed to understand. You’re not supposed to see me. Not like this.” He took a step forward, close enough that you could feel the slight tremble in his breath, his walls crumbling in quiet pieces. “You look like hell,” he murmured, deflecting—but his voice was soft. “And you still have the audacity to act like you’ve got everything figured out?”
You sighed faintly. “I never said I did.”
That hit him like a punch to the chest. Whiplash, but not from the words—from you. From the way you looked at him like you already knew the parts, he didn’t show anyone.
Like you’d swallowed the poison and called it by name.
Subaru’s brow twitched, jaw tight, eyes locked on yours. That unreadable expression cracked—just a little. Like he didn’t know whether to flinch or lean in.
He didn’t say anything.
Didn’t run, didn’t push, didn’t spit venom to make the moment disappear.
He just stepped forward, slow and almost hesitant, like his body moved before his mind caught up. You barely had time to process before he leaned in—close, closer. The space between you shrank until it barely existed at all.
Then—quietly, almost like it startled even him—Subaru kissed you.
There was no warning. No dramatic pause. Just the tiniest shift forward, like gravity pulled him in and he didn’t know how to resist it anymore. His lips pressed to yours, and for a second, time just… paused.
No sparks. No heat. No cliché breathlessness.
Just weight. Heavy, quiet, real.
It wasn’t a kiss meant to ignite anything. It wasn’t desire. It was something else entirely—like he was reaching out with the one thing he did have, even if it didn’t make sense to him. A wordless gesture of, “I heard you.” Of, “I don’t know what this is, but I’m still here.”
He kissed you like he was testing a theory.
Like maybe, just maybe, this didn’t have to hurt. Like maybe everything he’d buried—every dark, rotting thing he never let out—wouldn’t destroy the first person who’d seen it all and didn’t flinch.
And you kissed him back. Softly. Once. Steady. Not because it was romantic, or thrilling, or even something you needed to do. But because it felt like the right response. Like saying, “I get it.” Like keeping the moment still enough for him to breathe in it.
When you pulled back, it wasn’t awkward. It wasn’t cold.
It was just… quiet.
Subaru blinked, the faintest crack in his usual blank armor showing through. He took a half-step back, not like he was retreating—just trying to figure out where the hell he stood now. His voice came out low. Barely there.
“…Didn’t feel like poison,” he muttered, more to himself than to you, like he was still deciding if that scared him or not.
You just stared at him, wide-eyed, trying to process what the hell just happened. Then nodded slowly. “…Yeah.”
Because deadass yeah—same. You didn’t expect that. Not from him. Not like that. You weren’t even sure if it was a kiss or some weird emotional exorcism wrapped in lip contact.
But whatever it was—it didn’t kill you. It didn’t kill him.
And that was... something.
Then—Click.
The door creaked open, sudden and sharp like a gunshot in the silence. Both you and Subaru flinched—not visibly, but in that gut-punch way where your bodies backed away from each other before your minds even caught up. You were both expecting Crowe, maybe Deryl. Someone familiar. Someone stupid enough to laugh and shake their heads and make it a joke.
But it wasn’t them. It was Sol.
And his face—It told a whole damn story in one glance. Your eyes noticed everything quickly—knew it. Shock, plain and raw, like he’d walked in on something he wasn’t supposed to see. Nah—he definitely saw the Hurt, carved right into the way his mouth parted like he couldn’t breathe for a second. Confusion, was visible in the flicker of his eyes like he was trying to make sense of what the hell he’d just walked into.
And then—rage.
Simmering. Controlled. Trying hard not to boil over. Trying so damn hard not to let it turn ugly in front of you. But it was there, all of it, coiled tight in his jaw, his clenched hands, his silence that said everything.
You didn’t move. Neither did Subaru.
And Sol just stared at the two of you—his red-orange eyes burning holes in your skin, trying to carve out an explanation that didn’t exist. His gaze flicked from you to Subaru, and for a moment, there was something almost obsessive in it, like he was weighing the truth of what he'd just seen.
Subaru was always been the problem.
Subaru was always there. Always hanging around, always too composed to be trusted. That calm demeanor, the way he acted like he was untouchable—like he owned everything around him. Those sharp eyes, those casual touches, those little looks he always gave you—Sol saw them all. He finally noticed it all. Every little thing that made Subaru seem just a little too comfortable around you, too close.
The pieces clicked in his mind, sharp and jagged, and the rage burned hotter. Sol’s voice snapped through the tension, low and furious, but with an eerie calm.
“You… you really think you can just have them?”
His words were a direct challenge. He wasn’t even looking at Subaru now. His eyes were fixed on Geo, a bitter fire lighting up his pupils.
Geo raised an eyebrow, nonchalantly glancing at Sol, but there was a flicker of something deeper there—recognition. He had caught it. The look in Sol’s eyes.
He wasn’t just pissed. He was dangerous.
“You really think they want you?” Sol spat, his words dripping with venom. “You think you can just play with them like this? Control them? Manipulate them?” His voice rose in volume with every word, an ugly distortion of what used to be affection. "You’ve been poisoning their mind, haven’t you? Telling them lies to turn them against me. That’s what you’re doing, isn’t it?"
Subaru took a step forward, fists clenched. “Look—“
“I know you’ve been sneaking around behind my back, trying to worm your way into their head,” Sol interrupted, stepping closer, his body tense like a coiled spring. “You think you’re so much better than me, huh? Think you can just take what’s mine?”
In a split second, Sol’s hand shot out, shoving Geo hard in the chest. Geo barely moved, but the force of the shove sent the tension in the room spiraling out of control.
Everything felt like it was about to snap.
“You’re batshit crazy emo-ass dude, like I always knew,” Subaru muttered, shaking his head. But there was no fear in his voice—only disgust.
And that was all it took.
Sol lunged. His hands shot out, grabbing Geo by the collar and slamming him against the hallway with a violent crash. His grip tightened, nails digging into the fabric, pulling Geo’s face close to his with a snarl. “Don’t you dare act like you’re innocent. I saw the way you looked at them. Saw the way you touched them like you had a right to.”
The two of them were close now, too close—breathing in the same air, teeth gritted against each other.
Subaru didn’t flinch.
Didn’t give Sol the satisfaction of seeing him scared.
With a growl, Sol shoved him again. This time, Subaru reacted. He swung—hard—hitting Sol square in the jaw with a heavy punch that sent his head snapping to the side.
The pain bloomed like wildfire, but Sol didn’t back down. He felt the blood in his mouth, but it only made him angrier. His vision blurred with fury, the edges of everything distorting as the fight burned through him.
With a roar, Sol tackled Subaru to the ground, fists flying. He was relentless—pounding into Subaru’s chest, his knuckles connecting with skin, the blows harsh and fast. But Subaru didn’t give up. He fought back, flipping them over with a growl, using his legs to pin Sol to the floor. His hands grabbed Sol’s wrists, forcing them down, using all his strength to keep him under control.
But Subaru was wild now. The rage was consuming him, burning everything else from his mind. His body writhed under Subaru’s grip, trying to break free, thrashing to land another punch, to hurt him.
The sounds of the music pounding downstairs seemed, like again, miles away, distant as the world outside continued without knowing the mess unfolding upstairs.
You couldn’t let this happen. Not here. Not now. This wasn’t the time or place to be tearing each other apart—especially not with the party happening right below you, people oblivious to the mess unfolding up here.
You stepped forward, voice forced out through clenched teeth. “Enough, Sol,” you snapped, taking a deep breath as you tried to steady the rising panic in your chest. “This isn’t the time for this. The party downstairs—someone’s going to hear us!”
But Sol wasn’t listening.
“You think you’re better than me?” Sol’s voice was barely a growl as he tried to get his legs free, to push Subaru off. “You think you have the right to touch them? To take what’s mine?”
Subaru’s eyes narrowed as he tried to hold Sol down. His breath was coming fast, but there was a clear determination behind his gaze. “You need to get a fucking grip,” he snapped, voice low.
“They don’t belong to anyone.”
The words—those fucking words—hit Sol like a slap in the face. A crack in the dam. He threw his body forward, slamming his forehead into Subaru’s with a sickening thud, forcing him to stumble back. Blood leaked from his nose, but he didn’t care. He wasn’t stopping.
His rage was deafening, drowning out everything but the need to destroy. He lunged at Subaru again, not caring about anything else. And you acted on instinct, grabbing his arm to stop him, trying to hold him back, but before you could even register what was happening, a sharp, sudden pain exploded across your face.
Sol’s fist hit you square in the jaw.
The shock of it was immediate, but it wasn’t the pain that struck hardest. It was the fact that it was Sol—Sol—the one whom you thought you could trust, who’d been there for you in his own twisted way.
You stumbled back, your cheek stinging with the force of the hit, but before you could catch your breath, Sol was already there, his hand reaching out to you with a panicked, desperate expression.
“Shit—shit, I didn’t—” He quickly stumbled toward you, his voice soft, frantic. “Pumpkin... I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to—”
But the words didn’t land.
You pushed him back with all the force you could muster, sending him stumbling backward until he hit the ground with a dull thud.
The hallway went eerily quiet for a second, the only sound was your ragged breath and the thundering beat of the music from downstairs.
Sol sat there, looking up at you, his breath shaky. He didn’t move.
Didn’t try to get up.
You stood over Sol, your chest tight with disgust, a slow, suffocating poison filling your veins. Every inch of you wanted to scream, to shout every truth you could at him, but the words felt so small against the weight of what had just unfolded.
You couldn’t make sense of it. You couldn’t undo the mess.
Subaru moved to take a step forward, but you held up a hand, voice as cold as ice. “Stay back, Subaru. I’ll handle this.”
But even you knew you were barely holding it together.
The truth was, you didn’t want him to control this any longer. You weren’t going to let him break you and then apologize his way back into your life like it was nothing. You weren’t like that.
With a sharp breath, you began, words laced with finality.
“I don’t belong to anyone.” You let the silence hang in the air, letting it sit between you like a thick, unspoken truth. “And I sure as hell don’t belong to you.”
Your gaze never wavered from his as you continued, each word deliberate, a cold shard of truth cutting through the tension. “What makes you think you and I could ever work out? I don’t even like you, Sol. Hell, I don’t even like art enough to care about that little thing you latched onto. Yeah, we both like horror stuff, but that's not some magical bond that makes us compatible. Do you think that’s enough? That I’d somehow fall for you because you want it?”
A bitter laugh escaped you, hollow and devoid of warmth.
“It was never going to happen, never in a million years. I don’t have feelings for you, nonexistent. Like whatever past life you and I had together had to be simply a pity, but even modern terms that have been long gone now.” You saw the flash of confusion in his eyes, the shock written all over his face as your words sunk in, but you didn’t stop. You couldn’t.
Sol just stared at you, like he didn’t know what the hell hit him. His mouth opened as if to speak, but the words never came, hanging in the air uselessly.
“You need to understand something, Sol,” you continued, stepping back just slightly, making sure your words hit home. “You’re so desperate for the poison that you think it’ll save you. But I’m not the one to give it to you. We were never meant to be anything—certainly not this. I don’t want you. I never did. And you... you’re just looking for something to destroy yourself with.”
You didn’t care that it hurt.
You didn’t care that his feelings were crushed.
This wasn’t about him anymore. This was about clearing the air—about making him face the truth, even if it shattered him.
Sol was quiet. Instead, he looked down, fingers twitching like he was about to reach for you again. But his movements were slow, hesitant. He could see it now—could see the shift in you, could feel it in the air between you.
And that was enough to stop him.
For a moment, he just sat there, his eyes not meeting yours, his chest still rising and falling with every ragged breath. “I—I didn’t mean to hurt you,” he muttered, voice strained, unsure. His words were softer now, quieter. “I’m sorry... for everything.”
But the apology didn’t feel real. Not after all of this.
You didn’t even flinch as you looked down at him, your eyes cold, your heart colder. “Don’t apologize. It doesn’t mean anything.”
Sol opened his mouth like he was about to say something, maybe try again, but you weren’t going to let him.
Not now. Not after everything.
Sol's eyes flickered between you and Subaru, rage still bubbling beneath the surface, only now, it was simmering in a way that suggested he was ready to snap at any second. He was convinced Subaru was the issue—he was the one who had interfered.
His hands clenched into fists once more, and before anyone could react, he launched himself forward toward Subaru.
But in a blur of motion, a hand shot out, grabbing Sol’s arm and twisting it behind his back with brutal force. Sol's breath was ripped from his lungs in a strangled gasp as he was forced down to the ground, his face contorting in a mix of frustration and pain.
You froze. Subaru froze.
Neither of you had seen it coming.
“Hyugo?” you called out, a mix of confusion and shock in your voice. That’s right he came with Sol to the Halloween party.
The once-MIA student, the carefree and elusive presence you barely expected to have your back, stood there with Sol’s arm twisted at an impossible angle, his face unreadable. He wasn’t the cheerful, playful version you knew—this was a side of him you hadn’t seen before.
Cold, decisive, and completely in control.
Subaru’s confusion mirrored yours. His eyes flickered between you and Hyugo, his expression clearly saying the same thing: What is happening right now?
Hyugo didn't respond, his grip tightening on Sol’s arm, pressing him into the ground with unyielding force. For a second, it seemed like the entire hallway was holding its breath, waiting for something—anything—to happen.
"Don’t put your hands on my little brother," Hyugo growled, his voice low, the words carrying the weight of a threat so heavy it could’ve cracked glass. You could feel the tension in the air as his eyes flicked between you and Subaru, before landing back on Sol, pinning him like he was already dead in Hyugo’s eyes.
Hyugo then turned his gaze to Subaru. "Get them out of here," he said, tone cold, like he wasn’t even fazed by the chaos. "I already called the cops. Leave now."
You glanced at Subaru, and fuck, his face was a mess of emotions.
It was pale as hell, looking like he’d just seen something he couldn’t unsee—disgust, anger, confusion, all mixed up into a look you couldn’t even describe. Whatever it was, it wasn’t good. But he didn’t say a word. Just took one last look around, then grabbed your arm, pulling you out of the goddamn chaos.
You both made your way downstairs, and as if on cue, the flashing lights of a police car lit up the night, blinding and warning everyone at the same time. Oh shit. The entire party started scattering like cockroaches, people rushing out the doors, running in every direction, looking for an escape. It was a mess.
Crowe was standing near Deryl, Brittany, and Jess, already looking stressed the fuck out as he scanned the scene. “Who called the police??” he barked, looking around for answers like someone had just committed a crime.
Before anyone could respond, he saw you and Subaru, and his eyes went wide. “Did I miss drama?” he asked, “Wait—how did you get out of the closet..?” but when his gaze landed on your face.
“Hella, broken lock” you replied, your tone flat.
Without waiting for any further questions, you turned and started heading straight for the back door, already feeling the weight of everything press down on you.
“Sorry Crowe, but we gotta dip,” you called back, barely slowing down. “I’m on scholarship. Party planner out.” You didn’t even glance back as you slipped out into the night, leaving the chaos behind.
You moved through the darkened streets, not looking back, your footsteps quick and steady. The cool night air hit your face, but the adrenaline kept you warm.
Subaru was right behind you, shouting over the noise of the night, “Hey! Slow the fuck down!” He was still trying to catch up, his voice tight with a mix of concern and annoyance, but you were too far gone in your own head to care.
Before you could even make it to the end of the block, Deryl, Brittany, and Jess appeared, practically sprinting after you. Brittany looked pissed off, her hair falling out of place as she muttered curses under her breath as Jess held on to her. Deryl, for once, was being useful—grabbing Crowe by the arm and dragging him along in a half-assed attempt to keep him from falling apart.
When you all finally arrived at the diner, it was like a collective exhale. The neon lights above the early breakfast spot flickered in the darkness, offering a sharp contrast to the chaos you’d just left behind.
You all shuffled inside, and the scent of greasy food and fresh coffee hit you like a wave. Everyone was wiped out, some still catching their breath. Deryl and Subaru seemed to be the only ones still standing strong, while the rest of you were just... trying not to collapse.
No one said a word as you slid into the corner booth, settling between Crowe and Subaru. Their presence was a solid weight on either side of you—comforting in its own, strange way.
The six of you settled into silence for a second, trying to process what had just gone down. Everyone’s eyes were darting around, unsure of where to start, like it was some sort of unspoken rule to not bring up the mess of the night just yet.
Deryl was the first to break the silence, though his voice was still full of energy like he didn’t just witness a fight that nearly ended in a disaster. “So, who’s planning the next party? Because that shit was hype, even if the cops came. I’m just sayin’,” he grinned like the whole thing was some sick joke.
Brittany, on the other hand, was visibly disappointed, slouching in her seat and poking at her menu. “I was gonna get soooo wasted by the end of the night,” she muttered, glancing out the window like she was mourning the loss of the evening. “But nooo, gotta get the cops involved. Real fucking fun.”
Crowe was sitting there, rubbing his forehead, looking like he wanted to crawl into a hole. “This is why I don’t throw parties in my guest house,” he grumbled, clearly stressed. “What the hell was I thinking? My aunt’s gonna kill me.”
You looked at him, blinking for a moment. “Guest house?” you asked, half in disbelief. “You threw that entire thing in a guest house?” You couldn’t help but sigh under your breath. “That’s rich people’s problems right there.”
Crowe threw you a look, leaning back in his seat like he was trying to disappear into the booth. “Yeah, well, I’m not throwing a party at my real house. Not a chance in hell,” he muttered, sinking deeper into the cushions.
You grinned and raised an eyebrow. “Got damn rich people,” you teased, but your mind was already working. You motioned to the table with a nod. “All right, since our night is fucked, how about you all pick up the tab?”
Crowe’s head snapped toward you, eyes widening. “Wait, what?”
“You heard me,” you said with a smirk, “pay for the bill. I did all the work to make sure it was perfect until the cops showed up. So, unless you wanna keep wasting my time, I’m cashing out.”
Subaru, still processing everything, threw you a confused look, but you were already counting the minutes in your head until this night would be over.
Crowe sighed, finally giving in, rubbing his temples like he weighted the world on his shoulders. “Fine, fine, I’ll pay. You guys are seriously killing me, but yeah, I’ll cover the food,” he muttered, glancing at the menu like he wanted to melt into it. Everyone at the table perked up at his words, though you could tell they were still in a bit of shock from everything that went down earlier.
The waiter moved through the group, taking orders as the quiet hum of conversation settled in. The usual noise that felt uncomfortable you first felt when it came to hanging around this friend group.
However, now?
More like the peaceful weight of a night that had finally caught its breath. The chatter that followed was filled with clumsy attempts to fill the silence, like people fumbling to catch up with the rhythm of a moment they hadn’t quite grasped.
Deryl was as animated as ever, his voice loud and scattered as he rambled about finding a new spot for the next party—praying it wouldn’t end with sirens again.
Brittany, still jittery from the night’s chaos, was looking forward to her drink like it was a lifeline, a simple comfort she could hold onto.
Jess, the usually quiet observer, seemed lost in thought, her hands absentmindedly picking at her food. Her gaze was distant as if the events of the night had nudged something inside her—something she wasn’t sure how to deal with just yet.
It was like that—the way the conversation naturally folded into a silence that no one rushed to fill. Something about the way this group connected felt like solanaceae, that fun, intoxicating beauty wrapped in a delicate skin of thorns.
You could feel it in the way each of them interacted—like this quiet understanding of each other’s complexity, how the rawness of who they were was met with unspoken acceptance.
They were like a vine of nightshade, one that, if you got too close, could prick your skin with its sharp edges, but if you leaned in just right, it would wrap around you, tender yet fierce.
Even though they were different, even though they weren’t perfect, being here, surrounded by this strange blend of warmth and edge, felt like finding a place where you could just exist without the weight of expectations.
They cared—maybe not in ways you could always understand, but in ways that were real. There was a comfort here, but it was the kind you had to lean into, the kind that could hurt, but also heal.
And somehow, it felt safe.
Even in the moments of tension or silence, there was a knowing that this was where you belonged—among the thorns, wrapped in the strange, bittersweet beauty of something real.
And then, as if to stir the pot once again, Crowe dropped the topic that no one had thought to touch.
“So,” he started, his tone more casual than before, but you could tell there was an edge to it, like he was trying not to seem too concerned, “you two…” He nodded toward you and Subaru. “You guys locked in that closet, huh? What the hell happened in there?”
You froze, instantly wishing you could sink into the booth.
You didn’t want to talk about it.
Not with Crowe, not with anyone.
Whatever happened in there—it stays between You and Subaru.
The weird, messy thing that didn’t need explaining. But Crowe wasn’t letting it go, his eyes glancing between you and Subaru like he was trying to piece together the puzzle.
Subaru shifted uncomfortably in his seat, but before you could say anything, Crowe mumbled more to himself than anyone else, “I didn’t mean to put you two through that. But... watching you both not talk to each other? It’s messing with my head.”
The weight of the words hit you, and you could feel Subaru’s eyes on you, waiting for your response. You didn’t want to explain, didn’t want to give Crowe any satisfaction of knowing what had gone down. You shrugged it off, pushing the conversation away as best you could.
“It’s whatever,” you said quietly. “We’re fine now.”
You didn’t say more because, honestly, you weren’t sure what more to say. The tension was still thick between you and Subaru, but that was something you’d handle on your own. Again, you didn’t need Crowe or anyone else trying to meddle.
Just as the conversation shifted back to the party, you absentmindedly picked up your food, taking a bite, only to have Subaru’s hand shoot out in a flash. His fingers brushed against your face, and you barely had time to react before he wiped something off your cheek with a napkin, his voice low and careful.
“Don’t eat with your mouth full,” Subaru said in that familiar, borderline nagging tone, like he was scolding you but in the softest way possible. He wasn’t angry, just a little too invested in making sure you didn’t look like a mess in front of everyone.
Then, without missing a second, he placed a napkin neatly on your lap, a subtle, almost unconscious gesture that no one else at the table seemed to miss.
The entire table fell silent for a second.
You could practically hear the wheels turning in their heads. Everyone was staring, eyes wide, mouths slightly agape. Subaru’s quick, unexpected affection caught them all off guard. It was strange, watching him be so… attentive in his own blunt, rude way. He wasn’t exactly gentle, but there was something undeniably tender about the way he took care of you, even if it was just wiping your face.
It was the little things that made it all so damn confusing.
“Yo,” Deryl finally broke the silence, a grin slowly spreading across his face. “What the hell was that?”
Brittany blinked a couple of times, eyes narrowing. She shifted her gaze between you and Subaru, like she couldn't figure out if she was witnessing something cute or downright creepy. "You two... are weird."
“Are you two together?” Jess asked, her voice cutting through the awkward tension. The whole table went quiet, their eyes immediately flicking between you and Subaru.
You let out a sigh, leaning forward in your seat with a smirk.
“I don’t know, are we together, Subaru?”
Subaru froze, suddenly stiffening. His eyes darted around, probably realizing for the first time how damn odd everything must've looked. His mind must’ve been racing, trying to come up with an excuse, something that could make sense of all this mess.
He shouldn't have done that.
Especially in front of everyone.
He scowled, trying to brush it off, but still couldn’t pull his gaze away from you. “Oh, shut it,” he muttered, scooting away from you slightly as he turned to face the others. His eyes went sharp.
“It’s none of your damn business, you nosy fucking idiots.”
“Bruh, they deadass called you by your first name,” Deryl threw in, clearly trying to rile Subaru up.
Subaru’s eyes darkened at the mention of it, his arms crossing tightly over his chest. He gave a low huff, but his voice had that bite to it.
"Shut your mouth, Deryl."
Crowe was staring too, but his gaze was different. More thoughtful, like he was trying to piece something together. He glanced at you for a split second, then back to Subaru, before letting out a deep sigh. Finally, Crowe couldn’t resist adding his two cents, his voice laced with amusement.
“Looks like someone’s acting soft~”
Subaru’s jaw clenched, the muscle ticking under his skin. He wanted to wipe that smug look off Crowe’s face, but he wasn’t about to give him the satisfaction of reacting. Not yet.
You couldn’t help but laugh—soft and genuine. You knew it wasn’t really funny, but the ridiculousness of it all just hit you at that moment. Maybe it was the weird energy between you and Subaru, maybe it was the whole mess with the party... or maybe you just liked the idea of breaking the tension, even if only for a second.
But right when the atmosphere lightened a little, your phone buzzed in your pocket. You glanced down at the screen, seeing Hyugo’s name flashing up. Without missing a second, you excused yourself.
“Hold on a sec,” you said, standing up from the booth. Subaru instantly furrowed his brow, watching you.
“Where are you going?” he asked, his voice a little too sharp.
Of course, everyone at the table immediately jumped on him, teasing. "Yo, Subaru, you can’t just let her leave like that?" Deryl grinned, leaning forward. "What, no ‘be careful’? No ‘call me later’?"
Brittany and Jess were quick to jump in too, their eyes practically glowing with amusement. "What's up, Subaru? You need to go after her?" Brittany asked, barely suppressing her grin.
Subaru growled low in his throat, clearly irritated. "Shut up, all of you."
You bit back a smile as you glanced at him.
"Relax, I’ll be back in a minute."
Subaru’s eyes didn’t leave you as you made your way to the back area, heading toward the bathrooms. You could feel their eyes on you even as you stepped away, but you didn’t care. You needed a moment to yourself, a quick breather before dealing with more of whatever was happening at that table.
Once you were safely out of their line of sight, you took a breath and reached into your pocket to pull out your phone.
You needed a moment to clear your head, to get away from the chaos. Pressing the device to your ear, you stepped deeper into the quiet corner near the bathroom, the noise of the party just barely audible through the walls.
"Hey, Hyugo," you said, lowering your voice, feeling the tension still clinging to you like an unwanted weight.
Hyugo’s voice crackled through the speaker, steady and calm, but you could still hear that subtle edge beneath it. "Hey, what’s going on? Are you okay after all that? Did you and my little brother make it out?"
You closed your eyes, leaning back against the cold wall, letting his voice ground you for a moment. "Yeah, we’re fine. We got away with the others. Things got... little messy, but in a fun way. Our friends are straight up messing with him, and joking about the party."
Hyugo let out a laugh, and you could almost picture the happiness pulling at his lips. "That’s so funny. I bet he’s all red in the face. He flushes easily, you know." His laugh rang through, light and genuine, and you couldn’t help but laugh too, the tension in your chest easing just a little.
But then his tone shifted, softened. "You know..." he began again, more quietly now, like he was choosing his words carefully.
"Don’t listen to Sunny, well… Sol. He’s just…" He trailed off, and you could hear the unspoken understanding in his voice. "He’s complicated. You don’t need to let him drag you down into whatever mess he’s dealing with. You’re better than that."
You felt a weight lifting from your chest at his words. The heaviness of everything that had happened—the chaos, the hurtful words, the confusion—seemed to dissipate a little.
"Okay," you muttered softly. "I’ll try."
You hesitated for a moment, “Where is Sol?”
Hyugo sighed before saying, "We both got out before the cops saw us,” he said. "But don’t worry, I handled him. I made sure." There was a quiet assurance in his words, like he knew exactly how to deal with his younger brother, even if the details were something you weren’t sure you wanted to picture.
His words were comforting, but it was more than that—there was a dangerous edge to them, a possessiveness that spoke of a bond you knew better than to question. Hyugo wasn’t the type to let things slide, especially not when it came to protecting those he cared about.
You breathed out slowly, glancing down at the phone in your hand. Time was slipping away, and you couldn’t afford to be away from the table for too long.
"Thanks, Hyugo," you said, your voice tinged with sincerity. "I appreciate you looking out for us.”
He laughs softly, clearly hearing the warm of his voice, "Of course," he said, his tone light but full of that familiar teasing warmth.
"I’d be a terrible older brother if I didn’t."
There was a pause, and you could almost hear him considering something, weighing his next words carefully before he spoke again, his voice lower, quieter.
"But as his older brother..." he said slowly, almost thoughtfully. "Just... take care of my little brother for me. And of course, take care of yourself, okay?" His words were soft but firm like he was entrusting you with something important. "I just want you two to have a better life. A peaceful one, if that’s even possible, with… Subaru."
The sincerity in Hyugo’s voice lingered in your mind, a warmth that pushed away some of the tension you’d been holding. Even with everything that had happened, his words gave you a small sense of reassurance.
Maybe, just maybe, things could get better.
Maybe things with Subaru could be… different.
You sigh softly, your voice barely above a whisper as you respond. “I’ll try. We’re perhaps compatible. Like, he’s a handful, you know.”
Hyugo’s laugh came through again, deep and knowing, like he was in on some unspoken joke. "I know, tell me about it... Thank you, and I’m sorry, I’ll see you sometime around,” he added before the call ended.
For a moment, you stood there, the soft hum of your friends in the background, Hyugo’s words hanging in the air. There was something about him, something different when it came to you. And even though you couldn’t quite place it, one thing was clear—Hyugo doesn’t play about his little brother.
And maybe he did it for you….
Nah, that’s a lie because—you frowned your brows—thinking about Hyugo must know of Sol god awful obsession with you, because ain’t no damn way. Maybe that’s why he said he was sorry at the end once he realized that you have a connection with his little brother… hmm.
Anyway—you were about to head back to the table, the sound of footsteps approaching snapped you out of your thoughts. Before you even saw him, you could feel Subaru’s presence. And then his voice—quiet but piercing.
“Is he gone?”
You jumped, the suddenness of it making your heart stumble. Spinning around, you found Subaru standing there, his figure looming over you like an unspoken warning. His gaze was piercing, searching for something, maybe for a crack in your calm exterior.
“Subaru, please don’t do that,” you said, your voice strained as you tried to steady your racing pulse. His unexpected closeness, that tension between you, still hadn’t fully settled, and now he was standing there, making everything feel worse and more complicated.
“Yeah, Hyugo’s gone,” you muttered, trying to make your tone sound as casual as possible. But your voice was flat, betraying the way your chest still felt tight from the earlier conversation.
You glanced up at him, a wave of curiosity creeping in.
“You heard everything?”
For a moment, Subaru didn’t answer. His gaze locked onto yours, unreadable—cold, but with something sharp lurking beneath. Something almost… worried? The intensity of it made the air around you crackle with unspoken words. But instead of responding, he shifted slightly, looking away, as though something was clawing at him that he refused to face.
“I didn’t want to sit at the table with them while waiting,” he muttered, his voice edged with irritation, but there was something else there too—a softness, a crack in the armor.
“Too many idiots messing with me...” He scowled, as though frustrated by his own vulnerability, and you could see it in the way he tried to pull away, afraid of showing too much. But then, almost as an afterthought, his voice softened again, and his eyes flickered toward you, sharper now but tinged with something unspoken.
“But I came to check on you,” he added, and even though his tone was still laced with that cool indifference, you could hear the slight hesitation beneath it.
Like maybe, just maybe, he was just worried.
“Don’t need to be so dramatic,” you said, almost laughing. “I’m fine.”
Subaru shot you a look, narrowing his eyes at your comment, but then his posture shifted. “Text that short shit I said thanks,” he grumbled, “but don’t—I swear to god, make it over the top or he’ll never leave me alone on campus.”
You bit your lip, trying to stifle a laugh, “Sure,” you muttered, nodding as you looked at him. His expression was still cold, distant—like a layer of frost between you two.
But his eyes? They told a different story.
You met his gaze, feeling the weight of it all, the strange pull between you two. “Anyway,” he said, breaking the silence, his voice cutting through the moment. “Let’s get out of these nasty-ass restrooms. I’ll give you hand sanitizer once we’re back at the table.”
You couldn’t help but roll your eyes. “Subaru…”
“And you need to drop that art class,” he continued, oblivious to the way you’d called him out. “Start taking your major classes. Plan a better route. Just in case that fucker tries to mess with you.”
“Subaru…” you interrupted again, a little more firmly this time, trying to catch up with his rapid-fire thoughts.
“I’ll start walking with you to your classes since ours aren’t far apart. You can stay with me at my place until we find you somewhere else. I don’t care what my bitch-ass father says. I’ll handle it. That emo-fucker... I don’t trust him. I can’t—”
“Subaru,” you called, cutting him off mid-rant, a touch of annoyance slipping into your voice. “Shit, you're way ahead of my ass.”
He stopped in his tracks, his words trailing off. He blinked, clearly realizing how much he’d blurted out. His face turned slightly reddish pink, his eyes flickering away from yours as he tried to regain his composure. He cleared his throat, muttering under his breath.
“I know. Sorry,” he mumbled, his tone a little gruff as he avoided eye contact, his usual arrogance faltering just a bit.
You felt a little smile tug at your lips, but it wasn’t out of mockery. More like a realization, something that settled in your chest, warm and heavy. Subaru—despite the tough shell he put up—was starting to show you pieces of the person he used to be.
Or maybe, just maybe, the person he was becoming.
Perhaps, in that very poison, your truthful words had managed to move him.
Subaru looked down at you, the faintest laugh escaping his lips, mixed with that little annoyance in your voice.
The crazy part?
You were his, and he was yours—something neither of you could quite wrap your heads around. He leaned in slightly, his gaze softer now, the sharp edges of his usual demeanor starting to fade.
“A Belladonna, you know," Subaru said almost lovingly but annoyed, the words falling between you like a secret just for the two of you.
You blinked at him, momentarily lost in the meaning of it before your eyes softened. The shift was subtle, but it made you appear more alluring than ever. Belladonna?—dangerous, intoxicating, wrapped in mystery and allure.
A poison, sure, but not the kind that burned.
You were the berry, sweet yet deadly, something Subaru never thought he’d be so drawn to. And yet, here he was, tangled up in the wild, intoxicating forest of campus and your presence.
The kind of danger that didn’t destroy, but wrapped him in its pull, making him crave more. Always more. Subaru was immune to it, somehow, able to take on everything you were without being consumed. And that? That made you even more captivating in ways he couldn't fully explain.
"Didn't think you knew Italian or plants like that," you teased, an amused glint in your eyes.
Subaru sighed, that arrogant confidence of his never fully gone. "One, I speak five languages. Two, I like plants."
You rolled your eyes at his answer, a teasing smirk tugging at your lips. “Aw, first you call me a beautiful plant, now you're pulling out the fancy language?” you scoffed, crossing your arms with mock offense. “Weird, but okay.”
Subaru gave you that look—the one that danced on the edge of a challenge and a confession. “It’s belladonna,” he said smoothly, his voice low, rough with sarcasm, “It means deadly nightshade, a poisonous plant. Don’t go twisting my words like I called you ‘beautiful’ or anything. Don’t get cocky, smartass.”
And yet… the way he looked at you as he said it—his eyes sharp and unreadable, lingering a bit too long on your lips, on the curve of your smirk—betrayed him.
His mouth said one thing, but his gaze? That told the truth.
You weren’t just a poison to him.
You were a craving. Addictive.
Dangerous in the kind of way that pulled him closer, even when he knew he shouldn't. Not toxic—no.
Just potent enough to blur the line between warning and invitation.
You caught the look in his eyes—the way they softened for just a second like he'd forgotten to keep the mask on. That wall of his, the one he built so carefully, cracked without a sound. And in that silence, something honest slipped through.
Then he said it again, quieter this time, almost like it wasn’t meant to be heard.
“…My belladonna.”
No smirk. No smug edge.
Just the weight of his voice brushing against your skin like a whisper no one else could claim.
The words settled into your chest, blooming slow and warm, stealing your breath without asking. He didn’t have to mean it like that—but something about the way he said it made your heart stumble anyway.
Beautiful poison. Deadly nightshade.
But what Subaru didn’t know—what he clearly didn’t realize—was that you knew that belladonna also meant beautiful lady in Italian. And you weren’t about to tell him. Never. Let him pretend he wasn’t sweet. Let him keep thinking he wasn’t calling you beautiful.
You arched a brow, biting back a grin.
“Didn’t think you were the poetic type.”
He rolled his eyes, scoffing like it physically pained him. “I’m not. You’re just dramatic. And annoying. And smug as hell.”
But he didn’t deny it. And he didn’t take it back.
Instead, he glanced away with that familiar scowl—half exasperated, half something softer, "You're lucky I even tolerate you," he grumbled, voice low and rough, but you heard it—that warmth sneaking in like it always did when he got too close.
You were his poison, no doubt—but the kind that lingered sweetly on the tongue. Addictive. Secret. Worth every risk.
You tilted your head at him, a slow smirk tugging at your lips.
“Vice versa,” you hummed. “And yet here you are, still choosing to ‘tolerate’ me. Such possessiveness.”
He rolled his eyes hard enough to see the back of his skull.
“Don’t flatter yourself,” he shot back, but his mouth betrayed him—edges twitching up, just barely.
You both knew what was happening.
He wasn’t running. Wasn’t pushing away. He was already caught. Wrapped up in everything you were. Falling—grudgingly, carelessly, completely—into the mystery of you.
His belladonna.

ᯓ★ ⋆🌷͙⋆ The Line We Dare Not Cross
⋆. 🎀 ˚|| katsuki bakugo x f!reader, pure fluff
You never quite figured out what you and Katsuki Bakugo were. Best friends? Sometimes. Frenemies? More often than you’d admit. Something more? That was the question neither of you dared to voice, though the answer hovered between you like static before a storm.
You remembered the first time you noticed it — not the explosions or the reckless bravado, but the quiet moments after. When the noise died down, when his fiery glare softened just a fraction, and his eyes lingered a little longer than necessary. It was unsettling, confusing. A line blurring in ways you weren’t sure you wanted to cross but somehow couldn’t look away from.
That Saturday night felt like a test.
You met up at the ramen shop after training — your usual haunt. The air was thick with the aroma of broth and chili, but it was the silence between you that felt heavy. Katsuki sat across from you, arms crossed, jaw tight, but you caught the twitch of his lips when you caught his noodle-slurping technique and teased him about it.
“Quit it,” he grunted, but his eyes flicked to yours and held.
You grinned, reaching out to poke his side — a familiar move — and he shoved your hand away with a roughness that betrayed something tender. His fingers lingered on yours just a moment longer than necessary.
That flicker was everything you couldn’t say.
Halfway through the meal, you caught him watching you — not with his usual fire but with something quieter, something almost… vulnerable.
You cleared your throat, heart suddenly hammering. Did he feel it, too? The pull? The unspoken questions?
When the bill arrived, Bakugo reached for it first. The gesture wasn’t about pride or dominance this time. It was softer, almost careful, as if he was holding something fragile — your shared secret, perhaps.
You met his gaze, searching for a hint, a crack, any sign he’d say what you both knew but neither dared.
“Don’t think this means anything,” he muttered, eyes sharp but uneven.
“Yeah, I wouldn’t expect less,” you replied, voice steady but your fingers trembling just slightly.
Outside, the city lights glittered like distant sparks. The chill in the air made you shiver, or maybe it was something else — the electric tension threading between you.
You turned to leave, but his hand shot out and caught your wrist — firm but not harsh, holding you in place.
His eyes bore into yours, unflinching.
“You better not be thinking about someone else,” he growled, but there was a crack in his voice, a vulnerability wrapped in that rough edge.
Your breath hitched.
“Well, what if I am?” you teased, pulling back with a slow smile that hid the storm inside.
He smirked, shadows playing across his features, but didn’t let go.
The silence stretched, thick and potent. His proximity was overwhelming — the warmth radiating off him, the faint scent of smoke and sweat, the quiet thrum of a heartbeat that seemed just as loud as yours.
Questions you hadn’t dared ask swirled in your mind. Was this just friendship? Was it rivalry? Or something that needed naming — something dangerous and thrilling?
You stepped back, heart pounding, eyes locked on his, feeling like you were balancing on the edge of something that could either shatter or set you free.
Bakugo gave you a look — part challenge, part confession — and then, just as suddenly, he turned away.
“Don’t expect me to say it first,” he muttered over his shoulder.
But you knew. Somewhere beneath the bravado and explosions, there was more. So much more.
And maybe, just maybe, it was time to find out what the real score was.
