Character Story - Yumi [RGGO]

After a couple weeks of seeing babies, I am back to online classes :D I’ve had half of this done for months, but in the end the motivation I needed to finish this in a week was 1) people still waiting for it, and 2) the fact that there is absolutely no Kansai speak here after how hard doing Minami’s was XD Thank you to @arysthaeniru, @snuggetfish, and @integralcalculus for voting for Yumi! Sorry for how long it took!

(Don’t be fooled by the card picture, this does not take place in 2005 :< )

Story: Yumi works at Serena with another hostess and feels inadequate in comparison up until said hostess leaves to join a prostitution ring, at which point she reveals her secret ability.

Notes: 耳が痛いわ or “my ears hurt” - means something like “that’s painfully true” (spiritually, it probably means “haha oof yeah”).

CHAPTER 1

|Kamurocho – 1992.|

Serena Customer: “Oh? Yumi-chan, you haven’t touched your alcohol. Is it not to your liking?”

Yumi: “No, that’s not it, President. It’s just . . .”

President: “Come to think of it, Yumi-chan isn’t a heavy drinker of alcohol.”

Yumi: “Yeah, well . . .”

President: “Haha, you don’t have to overdo it.”

Yumi: (I shouldn’t cause the customers concern . . . really, I . . .)

{The door opens.}

Reina: “Oh, Yuu-chan. Welcome back.”

Yuu: “I’m back! Mama, I went shopping!”

Reina: “Thank you. Can you stay to assist Yumi-chan?”

Yuu: “Okay.”

Yuu: “Good evening, I’m Yuu. May I disturb you?”

President: “Oh, you’re cute! Sit down, sit down!”

Yuu: “Pardon me!”

Reina: “Wait, Yuu-chan. Is this all you bought? Some items are missing.”

Yuu: “Eh, it’s not enough? That’s funny~, I confirmed everything was all there.”

President: “Ahaha! Yuu-chan, are you saying it fell out?”

Yuu: “You know~? I often make mistakes~! Like last time . . .”

Yumi: “. . . President, may I leave my seat for a moment? I’m going to go buy more.”

President: “Yeah sure, sure! I’m having fun with Yuu-chan!”

Yumi: “. . . Well then, excuse me.”

----

Yumi: “Alright, that’s everything. I have to get back quickly . . .”

Drunk Thug: “Oh?! It’s Yumi-chan of Serena!”

Yumi: “Eh?”

Drunk Thug: “We’ve gone drinking a few times before. I feel like this is fate~! We met tonight because of it, so let’s go drinking together!”

Yumi: “I’m sorry, I have to get back to the bar . . .”

Drunk Thug: “Huuh?! Come on!!”

Yumi: “Kyaa?! Don’t pull! It hurts!”

Drunk Thug: “Heh, you’re always so high and mighty. Come to think of it, you never join in when I start drinking. The other hostess with you is Yuu, right? That one was more entertaining.”

Yumi: “. . . !”

Drunk Thug: “That’s it! Starting now, I’ll teach you how to please your customers.”

Yumi: “No, let go!”

Male voice: “Oi, you thug. What are you doing?”

Drunk Thug: “Huh?”

Yumi: “Shi-Shinji-kun?!”

Shinji: “Yumi-san, are you alright?”

Yumi: “Y-Yup. But, this person . . .”

Drunk Thug: “What do you want?!”

Shinji: “Don’t say bad words. If this is a pick-up, make your move somewhere else.”

Drunk Thug: “This is going to be fun . . . you wanna be messed up?! Apologize, hey!”

Yumi: “Shinji-kun, this is dangerous!”

Shinji: “Yumi-san, please stand back. I’ll deal with him.”

Drunk Thug: “Hah! I’m not scared of some kid! I’ll show you!”

{Shinji beats up the drunk.}

Drunk Thug: “Damn it, I’ll get you for this!”

Shinji: “Geez . . . I’m relieved you’re okay, Yumi-san.”

Yumi: “Thank you. But why is Shinji-kun here?”

Shinji: “I had something to do in the area and was walking nearby when I heard Yumi-san’s voice, so I came rushing in.”

Yumi: “I see. You really helped me.”

Shinji: “Hehe, it’s not a big deal. Something else might happen, so I’ll escort you to Serena.”

----

Yumi: “Thank you for escorting me to the bar. Ah, I know. Let me treat you to a drink as thanks.”

Shinji: “I’d be glad to, but I still have work to do . . . I’ll drop by the bar again some other time.”

Yumi: “I see . . . Yup. That’s alright.”

Shinji: “. . . Yumi-san, is something wrong? You don’t look fine.”

Yumi: “. . . I was thinking about how I’m always just getting help from someone.”

Shinji: “No, that’s not the case! Kiryu-san and Nishikiyama-san say that Yumi-san simply being there for them is soothing.”

Yumi: “Eh . . . ? Really?”

Shinji: “Really! I think the same way! So please stay as you are, Yumi-san. . . . Oh, I need to get to my Aniki. See ya!”

{Shinji runs off.}

Yumi: (Shinji-kun says that . . . I should stay as I am . . . should I really?)

----

Reina: “Oh, Yumi-chan! Welcome back. It’s late, did something happen?”

Yumi: “No, everything’s fine. I just took my time in shopping.”

Yuu’s voice: “Ahaha! That’s right~!”

Reina: “The President and Yuu-chan are enjoying themselves.”

Yumi: (The President is drinking a lot . . . but he looks like he’s having fun, isn’t he?)

Reina: “Yuu-chan is amazing, even though it’s only been half a year since she became a hostess.”

Yumi: “Yeah, I can’t get the President to drop his reservations that quickly . . .”

Yuu: “So then, President. Please continue the story you were telling earlier!”

President: “Hahaha! I’m glad I got to know Yuu-chan today!”

Yumi: (Do I even need to be here? With Yuu-chan here, I’m not necessary . . . )

----

Yumi: “Good morning.”

Reina: “Oh, Yumi-chan! You’re not with Yuu-chan?”

Yumi: “Eh? She hasn’t come in yet? Shouldn’t she have an early shift today . . .”

Reina: “That’s right. I tried to contact her, but the call wouldn’t go through . . .”

Yumi: “Maybe she’s just late again? I’ll go change clothes for the time being and help out.”

{The phone rings.}

Reina: “Oh, a phone call. . . . Yes, this is Serena. Ah, Yuu-chan! It’s already time for your shift . . . Eh? Wait a minute! So sudden . . . the call dropped.”

Yumi: “What’s wrong? Was the call from Yuu-chan?”

Reina: “It was . . . Yuu-chan’s quitting from the bar.”

Yumi: “Eh?”

Reina:” That’s all she said before the call cut off.”

Yumi (Why? Even though the President liked her so much.)

Reina: “I wonder what happened all of a sudden . . . I hope it’s nothing.”

----

Yumi: “Thank you, please come again.”

Office Worker Customer: “Of course, Yumi-chan. But I’m lonely without Yuu-chan~.”

Yumi: “Fufu, don’t say that.”

{The customer leaves.}

Reina: “It’s been a week since Yuu-chan quit. It’s lonely because of her sudden disappearance.”

Yumi: “Yup . . . it was a little too sudden. Maybe something happened.”

Reina: “. . . I failed to tell you at the time, but Yuu-chan said this. ‘I quit because I found a place I can make more money’.”

Yumi: “Eh? Serena pays pretty well. More than that . . .”

Reina: “Yup. I’m worried that it’s a dangerous place. I’ve called several times since then, but I couldn’t get in touch with Yuu-chan. I hope she’s alright . . . I worry something fishy is going on. Ah, Yumi-chan, a customer. Welcome~!”

Regular Customer: “Reina-mama, is Yuu-chan in?”

Reina: “Sorry. Yuu-chan quit a while ago.”

Regular Customer: “Ah, then . . . was the kid in that shop Yuu-chan?”

Reina: “Eh, did you see Yuu-chan somewhere?”

Regular Customer: “Yeah, in the cabaret club I came from, there’s a new hostess who looked like Yuu-chan. Well, I couldn’t see the face clearly because I wasn’t in my seat.”

Reina: “I see, a cabaret club . . . did she look okay?”

Regular Customer: “Hmm, I wonder . . . I’m really worried if that is Yuu-chan.”

Yumi: “. . . Why?”

Regular Customer: “That cabaret club seems to have changed management recently, and the evaluation is not good. Rumor has it they’re forcing girls into recruitment for prostitution.”

Yumi: “Forcing into prostitution . . . ? That’s a crime!”

Reina: “Calm down, Yumi-chan.”

Regular Customer: “It’s just rumors. If you’re worried, would you like to go there? Here’s the club’s business card.”

Reina: “Understood, thank you.”

Yumi: (Recruiting for prostitution . . . If that’s true, is Yuu-chan aware of it . . . ?)

-END-

CHAPTER 2

Yumi: (This is the address on the business card . . . Yuu-chan is in this cabaret club. Someone came out . . . that’s-!)

Yumi: “Yuu-chan!”

Yuu: “Whoa, Senpai? What are you doing here?”

Yumi: “I was worried about how Yuu-chan was . . . I heard from a customer that you work here.”

Yuu: “Hmm? Is that so?”

Yumi: “. . . Hey, Yuu-chan. Is your current workplace enjoyable?”

Yuu: “. . . It’s fun, I can make a lot of money. See, please take a look. I was able to buy the necklace I wanted right away!”

Yumi: “I see . . . that’s good. I was worried because I heard bad rumors about the club Yuu-chan is working at.”

Yuu: “Don’t worry. Besides, Senpai and I aren’t working together anymore, right?”

Yumi: (Certainly, she’s already quit Serena, so it’s just as Yuu-chan says . . .)

Man’s voice: “Where’s my Yuu?”

Yumi: “Ah, sorry. I’m just here to see a friend . . .”

Mild-mannered Man: “Is that right. However, Yuu has work after this . . . can you come back some other time?”

Yumi: (. . . This person, I wonder. I can’t put a finger on it, but he makes me uncomfortable . . .)

Mild-mannered Man: “Are you alright?”

Yumi: “. . . Yes. Yuu-chan, sorry for disturbing you from your work.”

Yuu: “. . .”

Mild-mannered Man: “Yuu, what are you standing around for? Hurry up and let’s go.”

Yuu: “. . . Yes sir.”

Yumi: “. . . U-Um!”

Mild-mannered Man: “Something else you want?”

Yumi: “Yuu-chan, she’s not in trouble, is she?”

Mild-mannered Man: “. . . Yeah. Don’t worry. Rest assured. If there’s nothing else, we’ll take our leave.”

{Yuu and the man walk off.}

Yumi: (Yuu-chan looks fine . . . but . . .)

Yakuza-like Man A: “Oh, it’s a beautiful Nee-chan. If you’re depressed, shall we comfort you?”

Yumi: “I-I’m fine. Excuse me . . . !”

Yakuza-like Man B: “Now, don’t say that. After all our effort?”

Yumi: “Kyaa . . . ! Don’t grab my arm!”

Kiryu: “Oi, what are you doing?”

Yakuza-like Man A: “Aah? Who are you?”

Yumi: “Kazuma!”

Kiryu: “Yumi, I’m here to help now.”

Yakuza-like Man B: “Kazuma . . . is this guy Kiryu Kazuma?! The one called the Dragon of Dojima . . . !”

Yakuza-like Man A: “Haw, that’s something. I’ve only heard the rumors, Kiryu-san. It’s a good opportunity. We’ll beat you and be the ones to name you!”

{Kiryu beats up the yakuza. They run away.}

Kiryu: “Are you injured, Yumi?”

Yumi: “I’m alright. Thank you for your help, Kazuma. For us to meet in such a place . . .”

Kiryu: “There’s something I wanted to check around here. That’s why I was passing by. Those men . . . they’re guys from the Takezuka Family. So that means the rumors are true?”

Yumi: “What do you mean?”

Kiryu: “This area is our territory, but I heard the Takezuka Family is moving in on it. It seems some stores have been crushed because of this situation. They must have been bought off . . .”

Yumi: (. . . If Kazuma’s story is true, then the man with Yuu-chan a while ago . . . I’m not sure . . . but I have to go. Mama and the regulars didn’t know!)

Yumi: “Sorry, Kazuma! I remembered I have a little errand!”

{Yumi runs off.}

Kiryu: “Oi, Yumi?!”

----

Yumi: “Haa, haa . . .”

Yumi: (Should be around here . . . ah! There!)

Yuu: “Um . . .”

Mild-mannered Man: “What? Are you going to say you want to quit now?”

Yuu: “No, I just wanted to finish this as soon as possible.”

Mild-mannered Man: “I see. Then head inside . . .”

Yumi: “Yuu-chan!!”

Yuu: “Senpai? Why are you here?”

Yumi: “That person might be a yakuza. I thought Yuu-chan might be in danger . . .”

Yuu: “. . . I know this person is the captain of the Takezuka Family, we’re here together.”

Yumi: “Eh . . . ?!”

Yuu: “Why doesn’t Senpai come with us? See, Kiryu Kazuma . . . you get along with him well, don’t you?”

Yumi: “That is . . .”

Takezuka Family Captain: “Kiryu? That’s good to hear. . . . Looks like you can be used.”

{The captain grabs Yumi.}

Takezuka Family Captain: “Would you like to come with us too? Oops, don’t make any noise. See this?”

Yumi: (He has a handgun pointed at me . . . !)

-END-

CHAPTER 3

Takezuka Family Captain: “Now then, why don’t you behave yourself here?”

Yumi: “. . . Trapping us here, what are you planning to do with us?”

Takezuka Family Captain: “You’ll understand soon enough. Oh, you guys, keep an eye on the woman. I’ll come back out in a moment.”

{The captain leaves.}

Yumi: “Yuu-chan, are you alright?”

Yuu: “Why are you worrying about me more than I am? I’m here for work.”

Yumi: “Work . . . for a yakuza? You don’t even know what that entails.”

Yuu: “So what are you trying to say?”

Yumi: “Yuu-chan . . . ?”

Yuu: “As long as you make money, it doesn’t matter if the other party is a yakuza.”

Yumi: “. . .”

Takezuka Family Member A: “Yo, Nee-chan. You’re free while you’re waiting, right? Come give us a hand.”

Yuu: “I don’t want to. Because it’s not part of my job.”

Takezuka Family Member B: “Heh, saying something so cheeky. You don’t know what you’ve gotten yourself into, do you? You are our product. It’s your job to do what we say.”

Yuu: “If you’re with the Captain, you don’t have to listen to what the underlings say.”

Takezuka Family Member A: “. . . Geez, it seems like there’s a need for you to be educated.”

Yuu: “Wait, ow! Don’t grab my hair!”

Yumi: “Let go of Yuu-chan!”

{Yumi slaps the yakuza holding Yuu.}

Takezuka Family Member A: “Haw, I’ll admit Nee-chan has courage. But Nee-chan and Yuu are in a bad position now, aren’t they?”

Yumi: “. . . !”

Takezuka Family Member B: “You should give us compensation, yeah?!”

Yumi: (If it comes to that . . . !)

Yumi: “. . . I’m the one who raised my hand. So I’ll be the one to keep you company.”

Takezuka Family Member A: “Hehe, so you understand?”

Yumi: (To get out of this situation . . . what can I do . . . Ah! That’s it . . . !)

Yumi: “Do you guys like alcohol? It seems there’s a lot of liquor lined up over there.”

Takezuka Family Member A: “Yeah, I like alcohol. Especially the alcohol I drink with a woman like Nee-chan.”

Yumi: “Then I’ll drink it with you. . . . If you can get me drunk, I’ll do whatever you like.”

Yuu: “Senpai, what are you saying?! You can’t hold your liquor at all!”

Takezuka Family Member B: “Oi oi, you can’t drink but you want to compete in a drinking contest with us?”

Takezuka Family Member A: “Well, it’s entertainment before the actual fun. I’ll take you up on that.”

Yumi: “Well then, let’s get started.”

{Yumi and the yakuza down drink after drink.}

Takezuka Family Member A: “Uugh . . . I can’t drink anymore . . .”

Takezuka Family Member B: “Uughp . . . ! Lo-Losing to a woman at drinking alcohol . . .”

Yumi: “Are you alright? I’m only just getting started in drinking.”

Yuu: “Whoa . . . so many liquor bottles emptied out.”

Takezuka Family Member A: “Wh-What the hell is this . . . weren’t you weak at handling alcohol . . . ?”

Yumi: “Are you already at your limit?”

Takezuka Family Member B: “Shit . . . ! Everything is spinning in front of me . . .”

Yumi: “Yuu-chan, now’s our chance . . . !”

Takezuka Family Member A: “Don’t be silly . . . we won’t let you escape . . . !”

Yumi: (All right . . . ! With such unsteady opponents, I can do something!)

{Yumi beats up the drunk yakuza.}

Takezuka Family Member A: “O-Ow . . . I’m also feeling sick . . . ! Uuugh!”

Yumi: “Hooray . . . ! Quickly, before it’s too late . . .”

{The yakuza collapse. The door opens as someone comes running in.}

Kiryu: “Yumi, are you safe?!”

Yumi: “Kazuma?!”

Kiryu: “. . . What’s this, what’s going on?”

Yumi: “Kazuma, why are you here?”

Kiryu: “I was contacted by the Takezuka Family saying they had you in their custody. They called me and said they had the intention of getting rid of you.”

Yumi: “Are you okay?”

Kiryu: “Heh . . . they weren’t a big problem. Even so, it’s good I arrived before they sold you off.”

Yumi: “. . . What does it mean to be sold?”

Kiryu: “These guys weren’t just mediating prostitution. They were selling the women they gathered to overseas organizations.”

Yuu: “. . . I didn’t know that.”

Kiryu: “Even the Dojima Family had trouble getting a lead on it.”

Yuu: “Was Senpai aware? That they were that kind of a dangerous organization.”

Yumi: “Not at all . . . this is the first I heard of it.”

Yuu: “. . . Aren’t you too fearless? Despite that, you still challenged them at a contest.”

Yumi: “It’s thanks to Yuu-chan.”

Yuu: “. . . Ha?”

Yumi: “I . . . I wasn’t confident in myself. At first I wanted to be someone that can be relied on, so I tried to help Yuu-chan. But when I saw Yuu-chan, that’s when I realized. If you really want to be confident, you need to possess a sufficiently strong will within yourself. That’s why I was able to act like that. Without Yuu-chan, I wouldn’t have had self-confidence.”

Yuu: “. . . In that case, I don’t need to thank you. Ah, but now what should I do? I’m going to lose my job.”

Yumi: “How about you come back to Serena? Mama and the regulars are waiting for Yuu-chan.”

Yuu: “. . . I don’t want to. As if I’ll accept Senpai’s help. If I do, just like with the President the other day, I’m told nothing but stories of Senpai.”

Yumi: “Stories of me . . . ?”

Yuu: “’Yumi-chan cares about my physical condition, right?’ . . . is all the President says. You can drink so much, and yet you don’t drink at the bar because you’re thinking about the customers . . . that’s it, isn’t it? Ultimately, instead of revealing that to customers, you’d rather be a lousy liar.”

Yumi: “. . . My ears hurt.”

Yuu: “Well, that’s my reason. I wonder if I should go back to the countryside.”

Yumi: “I see . . . it’ll be lonely.”

Yuu: “You won’t be saying stuff like that for long. When I return, I’ll overtake Senpai right away.”

Yumi: “Fufu, then I’ll have to work harder. So that I can fight back when Yuu-chan returns.”

Yumi: (From this moment on, instead of being helped, I will be the one who helps others.)

Gundham, Kazuichi, and Mikan with an Ultimate veterinarian S/O

warnings; light cussing, unedited, inaccurate depictons of what vets do, gender neutral pronouns for reader, gn!reader

Request; Hi there! Can I request gundham, kazuichi, and mikan with an Ultimate veterinarian S/O? Maybe they have wild animals by their side all the time :) thanks!

Gundham

◊ Gundham would trust you 100%

◊ He relies on you a bunch.

◊ Knowing that you are a veterinarian who loves animals, is all he needed to know to trust his life and the dark devas life with you.

◊ Gundham is pretty protective and careful with his devas, so if anytime the devas showed signs of a small sickness, he’d immediately go to you.

◊ He’d be so concerned for his devas so he would always go to you to see what’s wrong.

◊ Most of the time, the devas are fine and Gundham was just being a worried dad.

◊ But you’d be lying if you said you didn’t get a biiiiiiit happy every time he rushed into your clinic with a worried expression on his face.

◊ You assure him that his devas look fine, but he still insists you check them thoroughly.

◊ As usual, they are fine and he looks relieved.

◊ Though actually, one time he had faked his worry for the devas so he could have an excuse to see you.

◊ He was planning to ask you out while you examined his loyal companions.

◊ “So erm, how are my dark devas doing? Perfectly, I assume.” He spoke in his low tone of voice. “Well, Maga-G, Sun-D and Jum-P are doing fine. Except for Cham-P, he may be a tad dehydrated. If you monitor him carefully and make sure he drinks water, he’ll be good.” Gundham nodded with a nervous but confident grin, words not quite hitting his ears yet, “Indeed, so would you like to- Wait WHAT-?” Gundham paled, registering your words a bit too slow and freaking out.

◊ “Cham-P iS DYING?? WHAT WILL I- Oh goD-” Gundham hyperventilates, grabbing your hands unconsciously and squeezing them so tight it slightly hurt.

◊ “Please, S/o, save his life!!”

◊ You looked at him with surprise, face heating up at the sudden touch.

◊ ”G-gundham, Cham-P isn’t dying, he just needs to drink more water.” You cut off.

◊ Gundham suddenly froze, face heating up from the realization of his hands in yours.

◊ “O-oh, I see my mistake.” You laughed at his reaction, relishing in the feeling of his hands still resting in yours.

◊ “So what did you want to ask me earlier?” Gundham’s eyes widened, “Oh uh- I was just wondering if... Yo-you’d help me nurse Cham-P back to health?” He chickened out at the last minute, mentally scolding himself for losing his confidence.

◊ Though you knew that wasn’t what he meant to say since you had told him about Cham-P after he had tried to ask you something, you still accepted happily.

◊ Your animals and his dark devas had a few debates as you and Gundham helped Cham-P drink from the water nozzle thingy.

◊ “Water is not wet.” Maga-G scoffed, examining his nails. “Okay but, water makes things wet, so how is it not wet?” Your bird argued, looking at Maga-G with disbelief. “I have to pee.” Jum-P blurted out, hopping back inside the cage to do his business. “Can I come!?” San-D followed suit, hopping into the cage as well.

◊ “What do you think they’re talking about?” You questioned, looking at the animals argue.

◊ “Obviously, they are discussing their plan to destroy the world. My dark devas have the intelligence of a god!” Gundham boasted, staring at the dark devas with pride.

◊ “-No, you’re wrong, I’m right, shut up.” Maga-G ended the argument unfairly, stomping his foot down(if you get the reference, ily).

Kazuichi

◊ Kazuichi would be scared when he first saw you walk by with your army of animals following you.

◊ “I-is that a tiger!?”

◊ He’d be kind of intimidated by you at first, not wanting to get on your bad side and have your animals maul him.

◊ Other than your army of animals catching his eye, he thought you were pretty cute.

◊ Though he was itching to ask you out, he was too scared to go within 5 meters distance near you.

◊ He’d kind of just, scream cheesy pick-up lines to you.

◊ “HEY S/O! ARE Y-” “What!?” “ARE YOU-” “Can you come closer!? I can’t hear you!” “HAHAHA, N-NEVERMIND IT’S NOTHING!”

◊ Eventually, Kazuichi warmed up to your animals(it’s kind of the opposite really-).

◊ Funny story how actually, Kazuichi was working on the underbelly of his machines, and he needed his wrench. Assuming Fuyuhiko was still there—Which he wasn’t—, he asked for a wrench.

◊ (un)Luckily for him, one of your dogs had been there, and it had picked up the wrench and brought it to Kazuichi’s outstretched hand.

◊ “Thanks, Fuyu.” He accepted the wrench, expecting a grunt of ‘You’re welcome.’

◊ He, however, did not expect a very loud, “BORK!” in return.

◊ He screeched, wincing as he jolted up and hit his forehead on the hard metal underneath his machine.

◊ Not long after the bark echoed through the area, you had come running, your forehead creased from worry.

◊ “Oh, there you are!” You huffed out in relief as your eyes caught sight of the familiar coloured fur.

◊ You looked down at Kazuichi’s bottom half sticking out underneath from a machine, hearing a groan coming from him.

◊ “Kazuichi?” You squealed when you heard a- “S-s/o!?” come from underneath the machine, A “BANG!” following after.

◊ “Ow- U-uh hey S/o..!” He greeted waving his hand awkwardly from underneath the metal.

◊ “Uh, A-are you going to come out?” You asked, concerned for—what sounded like—his head injury.

◊ “U-um nope. It’s uh, it’s cozy underneath here.” He refused politely, not wanting you to see his red face.

◊ Literally red(or pink??) face; Blood had been running down his fucking forehead from the two hard bonks against the metal.

◊ The dog could smell the bullshit(and the blood) emitting from Kazuichi’s words, and bit gently onto his sneaker, urging out a scream from the pinkette.

◊ It pulled him out from underneath the machine, revealing his bloody forehead.

◊ You gasped in shock as you hurried him up to his feet, hastily bringing him to your clinic.

◊ He blushed at your close proximity, letting you drag him to a waiting seat.

◊ He watched warily as your animals ran into the backroom of your clinic, bringing you medical supplies as you carefully examined his forehead.

◊ The animals watched you two as you disinfected his forehead, making Kazuichi nervous from the many tiny animal eyes glaring into him.

◊ He tensed as he felt a ferret climb his shoulder, clenching his eyes shut.

◊ The ferret kissed him on his forehead, leaving you and him speechless.

◊ Well shit, the ferret had more confidence than you.

Mikan

◊ Mikan thought your ultimate was pretty cool!

◊ Since you were both in the medical field, you two had many things to talk about, therefore getting along unsurprisingly well.

◊ At first, she was a bit scared of your big animals, your small ones not so much.

◊ All your animals seemed to really really like her, and they’d be pretty protective of her.

◊ If Teruteru had said something perverted to her, one of your bears would maul him.

◊ Everyone cheered as the bear kept on swinging TeruTeru’s arm in its jaw.

◊ That one time Hajime made Mikan cry, one of your lizards had slipped off Mikan and bit his finger.

◊ “Not cool, Hajim-“ Nagito started, before glancing down on his bloody finger, “Oh shit, are you okay??”

◊ There’s always at least one of your animals stuck onto her just in case she gets picked on by Hiyoko or TeruTeru.

◊ They always have her back!

◊ If Hiyoko insulted Mikan for no good reason, the monkeys would pull her pigtails whilst the cats quickly ran to her dorm to shit inside it.

◊ Hiyoko stopped messing around with Mikan after that.

◊ Those times she trips and falls in very inconvenient positions, the animals cover her or scare everyone else away until you or someone trusted comes and helps.

◊ As the animals always have her back, she always has theirs.

◊ If someone tried to attack one of your animals, she’ll cover the animals and take the hit for them.

◊ Though before anyone could get hurt, your tiger had already pounced on the assaulter, tearing off their pants and watching as they ran away from the humiliation.

◊ If you’re busy healing one of the animals and can’t take care of the rest at the moment, Mikan will be your number #2 and she’ll help in any way she can!

◊ She remembers each animal’s feeding time to heart, never forgetting to feed them or give them water.

◊ She cherishes the animals almost as much as she cherishes you.

◊ She adores how kind you are to the animals and her, falling in love with your sweet personality.

◊ Mikan kind of becomes your wife and the animals being your shared children together.

◊ It’s really cute when you see the animals cuddle up to her while she pets them, it just makes you want to get on one knee.

◊ You are indefinitely thankful for her care, you’re sure you love her.

◊ Sooner or later, you two finally get together.

◊ All thanks to your animals actually, they did that classic nudge where you two kissed on accident.

◊ After you two get into a relationship, expect lots of cuddles.

◊ Correction, expect lots of cuddles with the animals.

◊ They regularly interrupt your quiet time with her by climbing in between and around the two of you, creating a safe and warm barrier.

◊ As you’re always caring for your many animals, you sometimes forget to take care of yourself, so she’d also make sure you were okay too.

◊ Since she was the ultimate nurse, she knew humans better and so she knew when you weren’t taking care of yourself.

◊ She would get concerned for you as you overworked yourself, therefore reminding you to take care of yourself-

◊ Before immediately apologizing for her worries, afraid you thought she was clingy.

◊ After assuring her you could never think that she was clingy, you promised her you’d take care of yourself, kissing her worried tears away.

◊ You’d do anything for Mikan, and she would do the same.

note; sorry if it’s a bit rushed!! i hope you enjoy anyways though, tysm for reading!

MOONCHILD 🌙 9

SUMMARY: Soulmates are a common thing. Everyone has one. Some people think soulmates are the greatest gift fate could give, others are envious about happy couples that were lucky enough to receive a wonderful partner. One of them was Min Yoongi. Your time to meet your significant other hasn’t come yet, stumbling into the tattoo parlor with a simple idea in mind, not knowing that you will be bound to step by more often. When you leave for the first time, you’ll go home with your masterpiece of a tattoo.

When you leave for the second time, you’ll go home with not only one, but two soulmates.

The man that was supposed to be your only soulmate, the one that never wanted to tell you that he woke up with the exact same koi karp tattoo just sits and watches - until he can’t take the pain anymore.

chapter 8 - here - chapter 10

“You should’ve seen it, love. It was way too funny how Jungkook-” “Y/N, where are you?” Jimin’s voice echoes through the hallway into Taehyung’s room, causing the latter to stop mid sentence with a confused expression on his face. “What is Jimin doing here, wasn’t he supposed to be at the coffee shop today?” Taehyung seems to be as surprised as you are. You’ve planned this day to be spent in Taehyung’s bed, some Anime playing on Netflix as you munch on some cookies that you baked with Jungkook last night. Neither of you knew that Jimin was staying at home today as well.

“To be honest? I thought he had already left.” You shake your head as you turn around to face the door. “Jimin I’m here, what is it?” You yell, hoping the man would hear you.

Suddenly you’re met with his pretty face as Jimin opens the door, whining at you to move from Taehyung’s bed. Not that you’re complaining at all.

“Wait Jimin, why are you here? Didn’t you say you’d be at the café the entire day? Jin is testing new syrup flavors, you’re usually the first one to try different styles of hot chocolate.”

Jimin’s features bright up, forgetting about pouting for your lack of answers, preferring to light up in happiness with a big smile on his face.

“Ah, yes. But Hyung called me earlier saying that the delivery guy accidentally dropped off the wrong package, now he has to deal with a hundred bottles of shampoo instead of his syrup. He said he’ll be in the café today, hoping that the right parcel will arrive so he wouldn’t need me. It’s a slow day-and ask Taehyung-, that doesn’t happen often. But maybe he’s just becoming soft, knowing that a special someone stays over very often nowadays.” Jimin winks at you with a flirty grin.

You smile sheepishly, already feeling your cheeks heating up. “I can always leave if you want me to, I got work to do anyway.” Obviously, you’re not really thinking of leaving, you're mostly teasing back, but Jimin is quick to catch you anyway.

“No way!” He yells dramatically, one hand grasping your arm whilst the other one is pressed against his chest. “I wouldn’t want my beloved soulmate to leave me, it’s far from that actually. In case you missed that part, I called for you because I need to use you.” Jimin smirks and you hear Taehyung dramatically gasping behind you before he leans forward to place his head on your shoulder.

“Sounds kinky, I didn’t know you had engaged things with our pretty prince already, Y/N.” Jimin breaks out in a soft giggle at Taehyung’s words and you’re already embarrassed by his innuendo. You’re usually not easily flustered when it comes to that topic, but this is your first time talking about something sexual with Jimin next to you. You can see how amused Jimin is and that he has to bite back his teasing, but luckily the bond nudges him to comfort you first.

“Ah, as much as I’d love to devour our peach, I’m here because I planned to retouch my hair today. Then I wondered if you’d be interested in getting yours done as well?” His smile is endearing and you realize that you would probably do anything for him if he keeps on looking at you like that.

A small gasp right next to your ear brings you out of your thoughts. Honestly, your boyfriends have to stop being so dramatic, you could easily think that they were actors or idols because they keep on acting up about the smallest things.

“No! Jiminie you’re dying your hair? But this color looks so good on you!” Taehyung remarks grumpily, a pout adoring his lips.

“Duh, Hyung. I know that everyone is loving my hair color, it’s made for me and I look bomb wearing it. So nah, I’m not switching the beautiful peach I met my soulmate in, I’m rather making sure that the color doesn’t wash away.” Taehyung looks pleased as he hears Jimin’s answer and snuggles closer to you.

“Then, what should I expect you to do to our girl? I can’t give her to you if I don’t know what you’re planning on, maybe I should hide her from you.” He pouts and you try to stifle your laughter once you notice that both of your mates are desperately trying to be serious even though they’re really close to laughing as well.

Taehyung and Jimin are really an astonishing duo. It had been weird for you in the beginning, seeing that you had met the couples separately. You’ve seen Taehyung with Jungkook and Jimin with Namjoon, but you still don't know a lot about their dynamics when the pairs are mixed. It’s easier to portray in your mind for Taehyung and Jimin, but you could already imagine that Namjoon and Jungkook are both really powerful and dominant men - it’d be interesting to see how they act around each other.

As for the men in front of you, you can obviously see the reason fate decided to put them together. You slowly start to understand what Namjoon meant when he said that there’s always a reason why soulmates find one another.

You’ve already noticed that Taehyung is more attentive when it comes to Jimin. Of course, all of them are-just like Taehyung previously said, Jimin’s their little prince-but there’s something in the way that Taehyung lets him do whatever he wants that is endearing to see.

You can’t imagine Jimin being unhappy with how careful all of them are with him all the time. He’s one of the most expressive out of the four and you feel like people underestimate him a lot. Of course, he looks soft and friendly, but Jimin knows how to stand for himself and how to protect everyone he loves. You had caught a glimpse of what he can be like when he’s angry the other day at the coffee shop and truthfully, you don’t need to see more to know that he can be quite terrifying if he wants to. To think that Jimin is a porcelain doll who’s carefully handled by his mates isn’t true. He knows what he wants and how he gets it. He can be cheeky and vicious if he wants to; Taehyung seems to always be there when he is preparing troubles. The both of them truly make the pair. Sometimes, Jungkook is added to the mix as well, leaving you and Namjoon praying that nothing bad will happen.

Of course, it never does, but you won’t ever forget the day where they accidentally deleted a very important work file on your laptop just because Taehyung accidentally pressed the wrong key whilst playing a browser game.

You had almost broken into tears because that was a finished project for work that was due the next days; you didn’t know if the auto-saved still worked, so it took you some time to forgive the three of them (it actually only took you one night full of cuddles and apologies whispered under your duvet, but that’s not the point, you’re soft for them, nothing new).

So, as you watch the both of them playfully bicker over the color of your hair, you can’t help but sigh happily as your eyes don’t leave your soulmates’ animated forms. You end up giggling at some point and it makes them come back from their little bubble that they had started creating. Taehyung smiles as he watches you and Jimin can’t help but giggle with you, content to see you having fun despite their antics.

“Sorry peach, we kind of forgot to ask you if you had a preference. Any color that you want to try? I can tell you which one will get any of those horny boys aroused if you’re looking for some wild experiences.” Jimin is chuckling as he watches you smirk. Taehyung begins to panic slightly because he knows that Jimin is really good with those things and he doesn’t really want you to be the receiver of his actions. If Jimin wants to make a show, so be it, but he better leaves you out of his games. “Stop worrying Hyung, you know I wouldn’t do anything drastic. Even though I thought that we’d look great with matching hair, I came prepared for something else.” Jimin’s now smirking and Taehyung simply sighs because he knows that he can’t stop what’s going to happen to you. He can just pray that once you’ll come out of the bathroom, he’ll be able to resist the upcoming urge to take your breath away, but well, it’s still Jimin that we are talking about, and Jimin knows how to tease the shit out of his mates.

“So peach, I was thinking, either you’re courageous enough to get your hair bleached and we go for a pretty silver, or we can choose something less violent for your hair, perhaps a nice wine red? I think it would suit you a lot.” Jimin winks at you, giving you enough time to think about the prepared options.

“I already bleached my hair once or twice because I was curious, but I had to realize that the pain on your scalp isn’t just an urban legend.” Jimin laughs heartily at your confession.

“Does that mean that we avoid the bleaching hair part?” He’s smiling at you, but you want to know one more thing before making your choice.

“Which color will get the best reactions out of the boys?” You ask, lashes fluttering innocently. Jimin can’t help but burst into laughter. He always guessed that you were as cheeky as him, but he didn’t think you would use it to your advantage. He likes it a lot.

“I think red will attract their eyes but silver might get you clearer reactions. It’s a very different color from your natural one, so I think this could attract the attention that you’re aiming for, peach.” Jimin’s nose crinkles as he grins. You’re contemplating the two options; the bleaching part isn’t really your taste, but you kind of really want to see their reactions.

“I honestly want to try silver, but I’m sort of scared of the process,” you admit quietly as you follow Jimin into the bathroom and the man hums thoughtfully.

“Have you been taking care of your hair recently? It generally helps since the bleach destroys your hair .” Jimin asks and you nod quietly. “Too bad, if I had known yesterday that we might be bleaching your hair today, I would have told you to oil it for the night. It would have been good, but well. We will do it differently. We’ll have to bleach it at least 3 times to get you a light enough color to tone it silver, though. You should change into an old t-shirt, or something that has no value to you. You can always wear the one I use to bleach my hair. I don’t really mind.”

Jimin’s preparing the bleach as he speaks to you. You’re almost dumbly nodding, searching for the shirt he talked about. You quickly put it on before going back to him. He’s humming while swaying his hips to some soft lofi music that he turned on before you entered the room again.

This feels oddly domestic and you find yourself smiling at the little scene. Jimin’s completely oblivious that you’re watching him, entertained by his cute behavior. He truly is in his little world, preparing everything for you and making sure that he’s measuring everything correctly. Jimin seems to be searching for something and he mutters words that you can’t make up. You come closer to him, naturally sliding your arms around his waist as you give him a back hug.

“What are you searching for?” The atmosphere is sereine, and you start to gently sway your hips with his, making him giggle lightly. You truly like to be close to them, and your bond can only agree with you.

“I can’t find the gloves. I know I’ve prepared them, but I must have left them somewhere else.” He’s annoyed but you kiss his cheeks lightly, trying to distract him a little bit.

“Didn’t you leave them near the sink of the kitchen though? I saw you putting them on and leaving them behind afterward. I had no idea what you were doing so I didn’t say anything.” you had just stared at him, confused when he had done so a little bit earlier in the day. Recognition dawns on his face and you chuckle at his dumbfounded expression.

“I’ll be right back.” he leaves quickly not without kissing your cheek back, though. You smile lightly at the kind gesture. If there is anything that you learnt as you spent time with him, it’s that Jimin is an angel. It shows in everything he does. From cuddles when he just knows that someone feels down, to the sticky notes he sometimes leaves in one your wallets when he knows that you’re going to have a long day at work, Jimin is more observant than he lets on and when he catches on something, he goes out of his ways to do something about it. It’s endearing, really. Sometimes, you think that he doesn’t even do it on purpose. The bond is just working too well with his caring personality. While you’re waiting for Jimin, you see Taehyung’s curious head popping from the door, watching you intrigued.

“So, who are you killing?” you laugh at his wording.

“I’m not telling. Jimin told me he would help me to bury the corpse anyway.” you squint as Taehyung giggles quietly.

“You’re not telling me? No hints?” he pouts and you actually have to prevent yourself from telling him.

“Nope. No spoilers. You’ll have the surprise like everyone else. It’s not going to be done today anyway.” you scoff lightly and Taehyung gasps.

“You’re bleaching your hair?” shoot. You gave it away. Too much information in one sentence. Taehyung is victoriously smirking and you want to whip it out of his face.

“I’m not telling you.” he laughs as he sees Jimin coming back. He shoves him away, berating Taehyung for trying to interrupt their moment. Taehyung only laughs loudly as he goes back to his room, leaving the both of you to your occupations.

“So, forgive me peach for what is going to happen, but it will definitely hurt a lot.” he smiles apologetically, mixing once again his mixture to make sure that it is consistent enough to go on your head. He makes sure that you are comfortably seated before beginning to apply the bleach. You’re letting him take care of your hair as he carefully applies the bleach and then proceeds to wrap your hair in a shower cap. He makes sure to not forget a strand of hair as he ends wrapping the bottom section of your hair. He goes for the higher section while humming and you’re closing your eyes to enjoy his voice. He doesn’t sing as much as Jungkook does, but he’s also gifted with an angelic voice; you almost think that it’s not fair for him to be that perfect. He’s charming in an indescriptible way, it’s just- Jimin. It’s so particularly him that you can’t find a better way to explain it. He keeps on breaking his little performance while asking you if anything is itching or burning and resumes when you tell him that you’re fine. Once he’s done, he sets a timer to make sure that the bleach doesn’t stay too long on you. He continues with his own hair and you help him as good as you can (meaning that he asks you for the tools he needs and you quietly comply.) He’s really captivating. You find yourself staring at him more than once. He’s fully engrossed in what he does and it makes him look even more handsome.

You’re a goner.

The timer is quick to ring and he smiles at you before swiftly removing everything. His own hair is carefully wrapped as he removes everything attentively. He pays attention to every detail and makes sure that you’re alright. It’s a cute experience to do your hair with him, and even through the pain, you’re not complaining at all. If anything, you feel all dolled up and cared for, loving the way he’s handling you while drying your hair. He’s grinning, you can see his proud smile in the mirror. It makes you feel happy to see him like that.

“Done for today at least. Now we let the magic do its tricks and we’ll be back at it tomorrow.” you smile at him when his own timer sets off. You try to help him but he laughs a little bit before telling you to let him do it. You watch him untroubled, and you snatch the hair dryer from him before he can reach it. He raises an eyebrow and you innocently stick your tongue at him. He giggles softly before taking the seat that you previously occupied. You happily dry his hair, unaware of his stare. He watches you as you’re concentrated on him. He loves it when the attention is on him, but it’s slightly different right now. You decided to spend the day with him, even though it looked like you had plans with Taehyung. You chose him and, honestly, he’s really happy about it. He’s always joyful to see you with any of his soulmates, he’s not one to get really jealous as long as it stays within your group. Yet, he feels that you’ve been at the parlour a lot during this week, and he’s simply been missing you. That’s why he’s bashfully happy that you chose him out of everyone to spend a day with. He kind of took you away from Taehyung, that’s true, but you chose to stay and let him do whatever he wanted. He can’t wait for everyone’s reaction to-

Wait. Your hair is not done, and it won’t be done in the next two day.

He can’t let them see you before you’re done.

“Y/N, peach, baby, I just thought of something. You need to leave right now before anyone comes home.” his tone has changed and you’re left confused. Why is he suddenly shoving you away?

“What? Why? What happened so suddenly?” you’re blinking, bemused, but he doesn’t stop.

“Nobody can see you before your color is done. We need to hide you away!” he almost screams and you’re suddenly laughing so hard that you’re almost crying.

“J-Jimin it won’t work, baby. I bet the boys will ask where I have gone before the end of the day.” you’re trying to calm down but he’s having none of it.

“No, no. I’m going to tell them that you’re sick, or something, and you’ll stay at your place for once.” he smirks at you when he emphasizes on the fact that you’re not at your place often. “You should move in with us at some points, it would be easier.” he takes your hand in his and you smile at that, giggling. He frowns, realizing that he keeps on changing the topic of the conversation.

“Anyway, not the point. We’ll talk about that later. We need to hide you first.” you watch him as he glances outside quickly, making sure that Taehyung is not in sight. “Okay, let’s go.” you try to stifle your laugh but he’s seriously adorable. Jimin is fully engrossed in his idea of not letting anyone see you, taking it to heart and trying to leave the apartment as soon as possible. He’s acting like a little spy, watching everywhere, and then waves at you to tell you that it’s safe to follow him. You follow him despite your initial confusion; you wouldn’t want to disappoint him. He’s smiling brightly at you once you finally cross the front door, closing it behind him.

“What are you going to tell Tae? He’s going to ask why I left without saying goodbye. I don’t want him to be upset at me.” you’re pouting because Jimin is basically preventing you from seeing anyone for three days. It isn’t a big thing, you know that you’re being slightly dramatic, but you’ve never been away for more than a day since you all met as soulmates.

“Don’t worry peach. I’ll handle everything. You just have to follow my instructions, alright?” he sneers quietly and you can’t help but laugh at how ridiculous the whole situation is. You’re hiding from your soulmates to surprise them with a new hair color. Seriously, even to you it sounds stupid, what are you doing?

“I can’t wait to see their faces when you’ll be back with beautiful silver hair. That’s going to be a sight, trust me. We will make their jaws fall a little bit.” his hands are back in yours, holding tightly onto you. You squeeze his hands once, smiling absurdly. Without even having to ask, Jimin walks you to your apartment, hand firmly in yours, telling you little stories with the boys. You’re enthralled, laughing at his funny comments, gasping when he says something surprising, beaming when he lets slip how much he loves each of them. It has been given since the very beginning that all boys are very dear to Jimin’s heart. But hearing him actually ramble about how special they are and how he loves each of them; it truly is endearing and you can’t help but want to hug him tightly and never let him go. He’s precious, really. You’ll never say it enough, but Jimin is an adorable angel who needs to be loved and held, but he also would do anything to make every one of you feel loved and cared for. Jimin blushes when he admits that Jungkook is his little baby even though the younger hates to be handled like that. He giggles when he confesses that Taehyung must be more than just a romantic soulmate, he shyly says that he found a bestfriend, a protector, and a confidant in Taehyung. Jimin has shining stars in his eyes when he quietly reveals to you that he thinks that Namjoon is the most amazing man he ever met and that if he could, he would protect him from the whole world because he knows that Namjoon gets hurt easily. He doesn’t show it but he wears his heart on his sleeves and it only backfired until they met the two younger boys. He stops talking for a little while and you don’t want to interrupt his thoughts. Besides, this silence is not uncomfortable; you don't need words to feel great with any of them. It’s natural, your bond feels incredibly right and for nothing in the world would you even try to change anything about it.

“I love the boys so much, it’s hard to explain. I’m sure you understand what I mean.” he comes closer to you, bumping into your arm as you walk together.

“I do. I completely get what you mean.” you smile gently, hugging his side. You understand way too much what he says. You’ve been overwhelmed with so many feelings recently, it’s hard to keep your head straight about everything when so much love is thrown to you.

“I love you a lot too, you know?” His voice is small, barely whispering and you wonder where the confession suddenly comes from “I don’t feel like I tell you enough, but I truly love you Y/N. I often gush about the boys to you because I feel like we’re similar in the way we handle the emotions of everyone. You’re a giver, always paying attention to everyone. I don’t think you even notice that you do it, but you are in your small bubble, including us so sweetly each time you feel like it’s needed.” you blush as your eyes meet his. You didn’t even know that you did those things. It seems natural to you.

“I can tell you don’t realize it. Even now you look dumbfounded.” he laughs at you, planting a small kiss on the top of your nose. Will this man let you live? Your heart is beating so fast that you’re actually concerned. Can he hear it?

“You’re one to talk. You’re always giving everything to everyone, engulfing all of us in your love and warmth. What would we do without you, our precious angel?” your smile is dazzling while tears are shimmering in your eyes. You’re not sad, just overwhelmed. And by the way that Jimin looks just as shaken as you are lets you know that you’re not the one to feel so much.

“How did we get so lucky to find you, Y/N?” you laugh at that, and he giggles as well. You almost missed your apartment in all of this and Jimin is quick to bring you to the door, hugging you warmly before he lets you go.

“I’ll see you tomorrow for the second bleaching day?” you stifle a laugh at his ridiculous expression and he nudges shyly at you.

“Yeah, count on me. So, I’m supposed to be sick, now? Won’t that worry everyone?” you ask, raising an eyebrow.

“I’ll tell them it’s nothing to be worried about, and you’re only being careful to not give it to everyone. My excuse to come to you will be that someone does need to baby you after all.” he smiles, proud of himself for the excuse he came up with. You beam at this, laughing quietly as you get ready to go back inside of your apartment, before Jimin calls for you one last time. He grabs your hand and pulls you back to him in a kiss. Your lips mold against his instinctively, not leaving room to your brain to comprehend what is going on. You just happily comply with Jimin's soft treatment. It’s awfully sweet and unrushed compared to how Jimin normally kisses. He’s just softly pressing his lips against yours, sharing an intimate moment with a lost part of his soul. He smiles against your lips and you can’t help but follow the movement. You’re both having a giggling fit before he manages to calm down and presses one last chaste kiss on your rosy lips. The corner of his mouth quirks up as he disconnects your lips, not staying too far from you. He breathes in before finally leaving your warm presence, blushing as he takes in the sight of you.

“See you tomorrow, peach.”

One day later and Yoongi is already the most worried. He tries really hard not to give it away, he really does. However, he really cannot shake the worries away. All the boys seem pretty chill after you disappeared on them but he truly is not.

He thinks for a second that they might be holding their stress better because they all know that you are meeting with Jimin. But it does nothing to help soothe his very own nerves. If anything it makes him angry at them because no one bothers telling him where you are. Yoogi knows he’s not the perfect soulmate but doesn’t he deserve to know where you went at least? He just wants to know if you are alright, if you are eating and drinking well.

Yes, he worries a lot.

Although he thinks that he got it under control, he has been snapping at everyone in the parlor, almost getting in a fight with Jungkook and pissing off more than once Taehyung despite his legendary patience. Hobi is trying his best with pretty and sweet cupcakes, but Yoongi snaps at everyone, including Hoseok. Jungkook’s eyes widens as he hears the cold tone of Yoongi dismissing Hoseok who took it upon himself to come to the parlour after noticing his sour mood.

The dejected look on Hoseok’s face does not surprise anyone but Taehyung is growing concerned. He wonders if it is because Yoongi is only bonded to you. It would make sense-this overprotective side of him, trying his best to protect his absent soulmate-but it does not excuse his behavior.

“Hyung look. I know you’re pissed because you haven’t seen or heard of Y/N for a whole 24h, but you have to let her live a little as well.” It sets Yoongi off.

“Yeah? Is asking for one message to tell me that everything is fine too much to ask for? Or am I less deserving than any of you?” The question surprises Jungkook but not so much Taehyung. Jungkook hushes Hoseok outside as he promises to visit soon after everything settles down.

“Why would you even think that? Y/N did not message any of us.” Taehyung answers flatly. He hopes that he can bring the older to calm down because he fears how far this little argument could suddenly go.

“Why do you all look so chill then? Are you not worried?” He cannot help it. It feels like something is not clicking to him. They all look so calm and Jungkook is normally the first one to panic each time their soulmate’s name is involved. Why are none of them worried? Yoongi is on the verge of calling you every two minutes but he might keep that for himself if all of them are so … Unbothered.

“Jimin keeps us updated, though he’s quite vague, I have to admit. We don’t really know what is happening, I mean I have an idea bu-”

“What are they doing? Why is Jimin clogging her like th-”

“Hyung for fuck sakes calm down, Y/N is safe!” Taehyung cannot help but raise his voice at Yoongi. He does not really like it, but he can see Yoongi getting overwhelmed and he does not know how to settle things down.

“How the fuck do you expect me to when I don’t even know where my soulmate is?”

“It didn’t really matter to you when you rejected her without even asking her.” Jungkook’s voice is really quiet and he probably does not even mean for Yoongi to hear it, but the older man hears it clearly and it freezes him. It’s still a fresh wound after all and Jungkook is honestly not ready to forget about it. He does not want for everything to get messy so he decided to shut up about it, but it does not prevent him from resenting the older man.

“Jungkook that was out of place, we both know that Y/N forgave him a while ago. It’s none of our place to judge what happened.” Taehyung intervenes before it can escalade. He could have really avoided mentioning that; Taehyung would have appreciated it.

“He’s right though, isn’t he? Isn’t it what you think of me too? That I’m pathetic and don’t deserve her after what I did to her?” His voice has significantly dropped and Taehyung does not like the way Yoongi’s eyes are firmly planted in the ground. Yes, Taehyung has also been bitter about what happened. Anyone hurting his mate ends in the blacklist. But they both sat down and talked about it; acted like adults. If Y/N considers it enough, then that’s it. No other arguments needed.

“Stop that. It won’t change what you did. Yeah, at first I might have resented you for doing what you did. But you had your reasons and whether or not I find them okay does not really concern me, especially not when Y/N already forgave you. I had nothing to forgive; hence, I’m just going to move forward with all of you because you chose to do the same. You decided to talk with her and accepted your bond and now you are trying to protect her the best that you can. So who am I to say anything? As long as you don’t hurt her, I have nothing to say.” The confession is almost too much. Taehyung wants to stop the words from leaving his lips because it feels more intimate than what he first intended.

“I-I’m sorry Yoongi-hyung. I didn’t mean it either, you know? It’s just… I’m worried too but I know she is with Jimin so I try not to stress too much and seeing you panic made me anxious.” Jungkook apologies quietly, not quite sure what to do. Even though he is still bitter, he did not mean to trigger Yoongi by mentioning what happened.

“It’s fine, let’s just… drop it. I’m sorry for being insufferable for the past 24h. I just… My bond is acting up and I feel like I might explode if I don’t see her soon.” He sighs, rubbing his temple. He is tired to be honest. He feels awful not only because he is not able to see you but also because he knows he’s been awful to everyone. He snapped at Hobi for fuck sakes.

“Actually, I’ve been meaning to ask you something because it’s been itching me all day. But don’t you think you’re the only one to be snappy like that because you’re the only one to be bonded to only one person?” Taehyung smirks gently as he watches Yoongi's expression shifts to almost embarrassed.

“I don’t think it’s related.”

“Oh, but I do think that it’s very much related.” Taehyung takes a step closer to Yoongi while he steps back until he collides with the wall. Taehyung smirks; it’s probably the first and last time he’ll see Yoongi being this embarrassed and confused. He would go as far as to say that he looks cute.

“What do you think you are doing, Kim?” It’s almost funny how desperate Yoongi is to take back the situation in his hands but Taehyung won’t let him do so easily.

“What if you were bonded to someone else, hyung? Do you think you’d feel better?” He smiles dangerously.

“Don’t joke with things like that Tae, we both know it does not work like that, you can kiss billions of people and not get mated to them, we’re not- that.” The last word barely leaves his lips before Taehyung laughs quietly. He fully knows that Jungkook is also watching and if he says nothing it’s either that he’s too shocked to do anything, or he just enjoys the show, and he’s pretty sure that Jungkook is enjoying himself a lot.

“Maybe we should just try it out to see by ourselves, yeah? One kiss won’t hurt.” And Yoongi truly thinks that he wants to protest. He really wants to but his voice gets caught in his throat and, even though Taehyung is leaving him a good minute to push him away if he wants to, he finds himself unable to do so. He’s stuck there, feet not willing to move anywhere. Though, he knows that if he does not move Taehyung is going to kiss him and he should be mad at him for even suggesting it, but he is not. He is weirdly anticipating it. Everything is frozen in place and he can only focus on the young man who now has his eyes closed.

And he hates for it to feel so good. Taehyung’s lips finally collide with his and he forgets about everything. Nothing matters anymore, he’s not sure where he is nor if anyone has entered the shop. He knows it's the bond. Gosh it’s part of why he wanted both of them away from him. He knew it.

No, actually he had not, but still he has had a hunch at some point for some reasons; he does not really remember why, but he can hear himself telling them not to get too close and to stay away from his personal life. Had he already feared that their souls would mingle with his unconsciously? His eyes meet Taehyung’s ones when they finally separate and he sees the confidence shining in his orbes. Yoongi is pretty sure that Taehyung had already known, and for a while. How? He is not too sure, but maybe it had been an unconscious knowledge on his side as well.

“I think that settles it, doesn’t it?”

Jimin finally allows you out after making sure that your hair is dry and perfect. It takes a lot of effort to convince him because he wants to make sure that you won’t catch a cold and he listed many other things that could happen to you and you come to the conclusion that Jimin liked a little bit too much having you only for himself. His worries are quite ridiculous at some points and you know that the boys have been growing impatient. Taehyung even sent you a message saying that Yoongi missed you. You don’t know if he was just teasing the older man or if this was true, but you want to see everyone again anyway. So despite Jimin’s protest, you have been able to escape your apartment and go to see them. You are excited, Jimin knows it. He cannot help but grin at you when you start laughing as you spot from afar the tattoo parlor.

“Excited?” He asks as his arm slides around your waist. Jimin has gotten quite bold during the past 2 days. You enjoy his closeness but you’re worried it was the reason why he didn't want you to join the boys so early.

“Hey, don’t pout. It’s not because I’ll be seeing everyone again that I won’t spend time with you again, you know?” He ends up pouting anyway but you kiss his pout nevertheless.

“I know… I’m selfish but I really enjoyed spending time with you. I feel like it’s the first time I got to know you properly, without the boys running around. I’m all for playful activities and spending time all together, but I don’t know. Sometimes, I need to have some peace and I like sharing it with one of my soulmates. I’m very grateful you stayed with me the whole weekend even though it could have bothered you. You just went with my crazy idea, said yes and we were already leaving our apartment. I- I don’t know. I feel like I’m going to miss you even if you’re not far away.” You are a little bit speechless after Jimin just shared his thoughts with you. In a way, you understand what he means because you definitely feel closer to him than you were at the start of the weekend. It feels like you learnt a bunch of things about him; you also had time to draw him and you can’t wait to finish the canvas. More color can still be added and you still have not shown him. He is curious, he has made it clear that he wants to be the first one to see once it’s done. You giggle thinking of teasing him for that but you have been so engrossed in painting him that you cannot bring yourself to do so. As you had once told Namjoon, portraits are not the easiest for you. You have always prefered landscapes. But Jimin’s portrait has been surprisingly well going. He has delicate features that look soft under your pencils. You like his face. You like him a lot anyway.

“Well, as you said before our crazy weekend started, we’ll have to think about me moving in, right? We cannot afford our precious Jiminie missing me, can we?” You smile quietly as you see his eyes widening.

“You mean it? Don’t joke about that with me, I can start crying if you do that.” He sounds quite panicked and you’re quick to soothe his worries down.

“I’m very serious, Jimin. Why would I ever joke about that?” He hugs you before the end of your sentence and you happily hugs back. He’s warm; it’s something you like about him too. You’re happy and safe in his arms.

“You’re going to make my heart burst someday, you know?” He whispers and you giggle against his chest. His hand slides into yours, happy and content to be close to you.

“Hopefully in a good way. I think some people would kill me if you were to die because of me”, you tease playfully and he laughs a bit. When he finally lets you go, a soft smile adorns his features and you kiss his lips delicately before separating yourself from him completely. He pushes you forward, now quite excited as well to witness the reactions of the boys. He already knows that Namjoon is going to be crazy about her, but he wonders how especially Yoongi will react. He cannot help it: he has a very curious soul.

You giggle, winking at him before you enter the shop with Jimin. Your bond is tugging in every direction and you feel torn. Where do you go? The longing is weird knowing that you spent only 3 days away, but you feel comforted to be back there.

“Welcome to moonch- Holy shit.” It’s Jungkook who greets you and you're already laughing as you hear him swearing. Though, you don’t know if he looks horrified or amazed, you hope it’s the second option.

“Jungkook, is everything okay- Y/N?” Taehyung’s head pops from one of the rooms he apparently was cleaning. He must have had an appointment not long ago seeing as he is taking care of his tools. “So that was what Jimin was preparing. God Jiminie, you chose an amazing color; it suits you very well, love.” He smiles at you before coming closer to hug you. You almost throw yourself in his arms, suddenly missing him more than you did a few hours ago. Your bond is crazy, you realize. It should scare you a little bit to miss someone so much after only three days. But you’ll dwell on that later.

“I think we broke Guk, peach.” Jimin is smirking devilishly as he watches the youngest who still has not made any move from his original position. He has frozen, unable to look anywhere but you. He isn’t really sure when he starts moving, but he’s pretty sure he’s fully conscious of his moves once he kisses the hell out of you. You’re slightly taken aback but you were kind of expecting it from Jungkook. He had been the one actively sending long messages of ‘I miss you’ during the whole weekend. You had even had to call him to soothe him down for a while, so his possessiveness does not surprise you that much. You’re still in Tae’s arms when Jungkook kisses you and you feel both of their bonds close to yours, warming and soothing your body as they glue themselves to you as much as they can. If anyone was to interrupt the moment, they’d probably think that you’d been away for months when it has in reality only been 3 days.

“What the fuck is happening?” Yoongi is the one who breaks the moment and you’re kind of glad that it’s him rather than his client who is dressing up after his session in Yoongi’s room. You smile as you notice his intense gaze that finally meets you. “Y/N?” He questions, almost unsure for a second. You nod shyly before going up to him as well.

You can’t lie and say you did not miss him, because you did. A lot. So you naturally wrap your hands around his neck and hug him close, enjoying his relaxed presence. His arms follow your movements, wrapping themselves around your waist. Your bond feels lighter already, as if knowing that you finally met three of your soulmates again. But it’s actually a very quiet whisper from Yoongi that disturbs you the most. You were not expecting him to mumble an ‘I missed you’, you were actually not expecting a lot from him to be honest. The hug feels already like a big thing, but the ‘I missed you’ makes you melt.

“I missed you too. How have you been?” He just hugs you closer, not wanting to break the moment, but it’s Taehyung who answers instead.

“Oh don’t worry, he’s been very well. I’ve helped him relax while you were away.” Taehyung proudly grins at that and Yoongi’s inaudible grumbles against your skin are telling you there is more to the story than what they let on.

“What do you mean relax?” You eye Jungkook, worried that something might have happened between those two without him knowing.

“Jungkook was in the front row, don’t worry. His very own mate getting mated to his hyung was probably a sight to behold, wasn’t it Jungkook?” Taehyung is giggling like a madman while Jungkook gets red. He feels ashamed that the sight turned him on slightly. He shouldn’t be thinking like that of Yoongi. But at the same as they discussed together afterward, Yoongi getting mated to both you and Taehyung might mean that he could very well be mated to everyone else as well. But it’s too confusing for now, he prefers not thinking about it. So instead, he turns his head, hoping for the focus of the discussion to quickly change.

“YOU WHAT?” Jimin is the one screaming but you would have been the one doing it had he not done it before you.

“We’re soulmates. It’s not that much of a big deal.” Yoongi is blushing, you see it quickly when he tries to get away. He’s embarrassed of the spotlight being brought on him and you giggle noticing his worried eyes glancing at you. Is he worried that you’d be jealous?

“Hey! You guys ruined my surprise with Y/N’s hair! She should be the one we’re talking about right now! Now that you dropped the news, no one will focus on our pretty, now silver, peach.” Jimin is pouting and you see Jungkook kissing his pout away.

“No one is forgetting her, don’t worry. You look dashing Y/N.” Jungkook is quick to assure you, taking one of your hands in his. His eyes are sparkling prettily.

“Thanks Guk. I’m glad you like it.” You smile carefree in his hold and Yoongi is still watching you cautiously so you decide to go to him anyway while Jimin starts begging Taehyung for more information.

“So, what do you think of my hair?” You ask trying to make him spill the beans. You see that something is bothering him. He’s quite obvious sometimes and he seems shy under your eyes. You wonder if the conversation flustered him that much.

“You’re not mad?” He asks almost timidly.

Oh, that’s what it was about then.

“Why would I be? Had it been someone outside of our circle I might have been less enthusiastic, that’s true. I think I get what Jungkook meant the other day, but anyway. I’m very happy you’re bonded to Taehyung. He has much love to offer and god knows how much love you crave.” You tease him to relax him slightly and it seems to work as he starts tickling you.

“You’re insufferable.... I don’t know. I was worried. I think it’s because I was worried you would take wrong the fact that I accepted Taehyung’s bond almost immediately while… While I fucked up big time with you.” Ah, you finally see where this is going and you understand his concerns even though it had not even crossed your mind before he brought it up.

“Yoongi come on. Aren’t we past all of that? I understand your concern and see where it comes from, but you honestly shouldn't worry this much. Have I not told you enough that I just want you to be happy?” He smiles quietly at that and he suddenly dives for your lips. You’re surprised but happily make the best out of his sudden affection. Not that he does not kiss you often, but there is usually a build-up. Right now, it is pretty spontaneous and you like that a lot from him.

“How did I end up so lucky to have you?” He sighs comfortable once you both break out.

“I don’t know, maybe you saved a country or something?” He laughs when you kiss his jaw lightly.

“Hm. Maybe. And to answer your question, your hair is very pretty. It looks really good on you. You should try- no actually, let me braid your hair.”

“Suddenly, like that?”

“Yup. Suddenly, like that.”

ALRIGHTY! LOYAL HERE COMING IN WITH THE CIRCUS HAHAHA

Btw, I’m like 90% sure that I fell asleep while writing so it just stops. Like, there’s no ending/summary/whatever word I’m looking for but can’t think of at the moment and my bird is currently chewing on my phone case oh my god can she please stop—

__________________

I believe the concept of yanderes ft. a isekai-d reader has been mentioned by Shepard and her anons, tho it’s been mainly for Origins SMP. So, I come to you with ideas for the Dream SMP because that’s all I’m familiar with HAHAH—

Also, I apologize in advance because this thing is borderline an essay with how long it is. I’m so sorry—

For example *cue dramatic lighting and a cheesy flashback monologue thingie* oh my god I think I’m losing it, I’m so tired

Y/n and their younger sibling, Frisk, had just finished up another press conference regarding Monsters being back on the surface. All seems to be going well until the ground beneath their feet vanishes and they fall unconscious a few moments later. When they awaken, they notice they’re surrounded by humans—wait they aren’t all humans, what the fuck, since when are there hybrids? They knew everyone from the underground—by name, no less—and had never heard of any currently living hybrids. Only of ones from before the war. Besides, Monsters have been on the surface for a month at most, so there is no way for... oh boy, their head is spinning.

After some very...tense...introductions (“Hi, I never saw you guys Underground, nor have I heard of you, no offense. So, uh, which monsters are you guys related to?” “OI, I’LL HAVE YOU KNOW THAT TUBBO IS NOT A MONSTER!”) they come to the realization that y/n is most definitely not from this world, or even this universe. Y/n’s adamant refusal to fight the “real monsters” that roam this land (“I did not spend countless timelines weeks putting my life on the line to befriend every monster, break the barrier that trapped them Underground, and defend them against my own god forsaken race just to turn my back on them.”) was a pretty big sign, after all. That, along with species of monsters that the SMP members have never heard of and how y/n talked about Souls as if they were a tangible thing.

It’s a rocky start before any sort of friendship is formed: y/n, wanting to be cautious, (and also not having Sans there to CHECK for them) decides to ask everyone what their LV is. It’s risky, and they had no way to prove if anyone is (or isn’t) telling the truth, but it was worth a shot. “Our levels?” A small goat hybrid asked, his head slightly tilting to the side. Everyone assumes that y/n is talking about enchantment levels. “I’m at 26! Ranboo, you’re at 30, right?” “I’m at 37 now, actually.” “Well, I’M at 58. Clearly I’m the superior one here. A real big man, a very manly man, aren’t I?” And a few others pipe in. Color drains from y/n’s face and they take a few steps back, hands shaking as their eyes dart between each person in the room and the exit. ‘How many lives have they each taken to make their LOVE so high? Why do they seem so proud of it?’ Yeah... that was an interesting experience.

- even though they have been reassured multiple times that the monsters of this world are nothing like the ones from their home, y/n still refuses to kill a single one, as I had mentioned earlier. They also refuse to kill animals. It takes a couple tries at explaining LV or LOVE—Level Of ViolencE—along with EXP—EXecution Points—but eventually everyone is on the same page

- Y/n is hesitant to bring out their SOUL when asked. First off, though they’re now friends with those from the Underground, they can’t help but be reminded of every spear, knife, bone, petal, gaster blaster, and fireball that has been aimed at them with the intent to kill whenever their SOUL was drawn into an encounter back then. Second of all, showing your SOUL is something you do with those you trust with your life—after all, you’re literally putting your lifeline out on display when you do so. There are so many different ways that the SMP members can see it

- Perhaps a monster appears

- Eggpire or Dream attack

- Someone forces y/n into an encounter because everyone is too curious to just let this opportunity slip by

- When y/n discovers that the people of this land have more than one life, they’re confused. There is no way that all of these people have SOULS of Determination, and there’d definitely be some issues if people kept rewinding time to their last save point. Besides, only one Determination SOUL—the strongest one—should be able to respawn. Then again, they only know what Frisk had explained to them. They were never able to see the save stars that Frisk would interact with in the different sections of the Underground. So they only have so much to go off of.

- Battle for them is completely different. Despite being in a different world, the mechanics from their world still apply. They can FIGHT, ACT, use an ITEM or show MERCY.

- They use Frisk’s tactic and flirt their way out of a fight or two. They never understood why Frisk did it until now... ‘I mean, I...wow. That was actually effective.’ They’re impressed.

- Oh no, maybe that wasn’t the best idea...they might have some yanderes after them bc of it...

- They probably have accidentally called Philza ‘Asgore’ and Tubbo ‘Asriel’ because both hybrids remind her of the two males from her world. Similar personalities AND Tubbo is a goat hybrid. The poor child is going to be so confused

- If Tubbo’s a yandere oh boy it’s going to be so easy for him. Y/n will probably be constantly at his side and telling him stories about the first fallen child and how they were adopted by the royal family, who are goat monsters! And just explaining the history of the underground and how important the goat family is. Talks about Asriel a lot as well. Probably makes him butterscotch cinnamon pie and tries to recreate golden flower tea to share with him as well. Or, they do that and he’s not yandere and it’s just wholesome.

- If we follow the headcanons that some fans have made, perhaps Frisk (and/or y/n) gave up half of their SOUL to give to either (or both) Chara or Asriel so they’d have another chance at life

- Not only does y/n refuse to kill, which leaves them vulnerable, they also only have half a SOUL, which means they’re incredibly weak. Someone needs to protect them, someone needs to keep them safe, someone needs to—

- Y/n is incredibly agile thanks to all the battles they’ve faced Underground. With their SOUL always out in the open during an encounter and the fact that they refuse to harm anyone, it’s required. I’m imagining them moving like a dancer, using jumps and spins to help them avoid any weapons swung at them.

- This is gonna be annoying for any yandere that wishes to lock y/n up. Even if they won’t physically hurt someone, they WILL put up a fight and make it as hard as they possibly can to be dragged into isolation or imprisonment

- When it comes to who goes yandere, I believe what color of SOUL y/n has (their personality, in summary) would play a big role. Here’s a few of my ideas, feel free to move people around or add to it, I’m really tired and can’t think of many characters LOL

- Red (determination): Wilbur, Technoblade

- Orange (bravery): Technoblade, Dream, Tommy

- Yellow (justice): Sam, Technoblade

- Green (kindness): the kids of the server, Fundy, and Ghostbur

- Cyan (patience): Ranboo, Ghostbur, Karl

- Dark blue (integrity): Tubbo, Philza, Sam

- Purple (perseverance): Dream—this man would love to see how long it would take for your perseverance to run out. I wouldn’t be surprised if your perseverance is the only reason he’s interested.

__________________

From what I saw of the end of what I wrote, it is DEFINITELY cut short. At least I mentioned every SOUL type lolol.

Also, I found a whole other note that’s a continuation of this concept but for y/n being from another game what the hell was I doing—

Expect that to come in another ask once I eat dinner

Sorry i took so long to answer!! I kept getting distracted!

That stuff is so pog man!!!! Puffy might be called “Toriel” once in a while because mom energy and she sheep,,, close to goat!

Gosh all the flirting will bring in so many yanderes or make ppl like “yo wtf??” And there’s a very small amount that are inbetween.

OKAY BUT WITH THE MONSTER STUFF ON THE DSMP- they’d keep the monsters in their house. They’d give them food and everything. Some def become very friendly and will defend. Haha giant spider go prrrrrr

I’d write more but there is so much amazing stuff I don’t think I could add to some of them anyways!!! Plus my mind is just racing other places rn haha

next chapter of More Than One hahaha much angst in this chapter. at the very least i love angst with good endings!

@helleborusangel gets tagged for my writing, and yall can send asks if you want me to also tag you.

In the past day or so, Grum had done his best to research everything he needed. He had all his notes ready for what was still an unnamed war, but that’s normally how things started. Of course the hermits would choose sides, but based on what he knew about them so far, there were sides that were likely to form in similar ways to the mycelium war, with a few exceptions.

After that, he worked a bit more on his help for his daddy and catching him up on what he missed while sick. It didn’t take too long, as other hermits were able to do the same since he could move around, but Grum liked being able to help his daddy.

The other stuff didn’t need to be worked with too much, since if he compared everything to boxes or chests, that was mostly the junk chest. Or more likely miscellaneous. In other words, something that didn’t matter that much right now.

The last was everything with being a kid. Grum took his free time to research what kids normally did, see how Jrum acted, maybe read a few books on the topic, and he was pretty sure he had it down. Now today he was going to test out if he was right, and his first stop was in his Dad’s base.

Grum arrived at the basement of the mansion before taking the elevator upstairs, which was obviously the most fun option opposed to taking the stairs or flying, so he was off to a great start. The next stop was his dad’s closet, which was practically a room of it’s own. In researching, dress up was a common activity for kids, so this would be a perfect activity for him to do. Especially if it ended up in a mess that needed to be cleaned later. A mess he would need to refuse to clean at first of course. Jrum hated getting cleaned up after a redstone project, and other kids seemed to hate the job of cleaning up, or rather, the chore. Because kids got chores, not jobs.

For most of the clothes, they all better fit his dad, which made them too big on Grum, but that was supposed to add to the charm. He even started off with a well worn sweater that had been stretched a bit bigger than the others, really emphasizing the look. Once he put it on, the collar dipped a bit low, and the hem nearly reached his knees while the sleeves when unrolled draped over his hands. Looking in a nearby mirror, Grum couldn’t help but smile at how silly he looked.

Grum took the sweater off and went to hang it up before stopping himself and letting it lay on the floor, nodding in approval at the way the fabric lay on the ground in a messy fashion. His next choice was a black hoodie that was a similar side, but baggy near the bottom. Still, it didn’t quite feel right, so Grum tossed it aside.

He huffed a little while looking at all the clothes. While sure, he was smaller than his dad, the difference between him and his dad was much slimmer than him and his daddy, or Jrum and their dad. But then he spotted something that hung a bit lower on a hanger.

Walking over, Grum saw what was the same color as most of his dad’s sweaters, but more of a jacket or a robe. Putting it on, the fabric draped past his knees, and it was easy enough to wrap around him. Perfect. Reinvigorated by the nice find, Grum started going through the closet, putting the sweater jacket to the side and trying on a number of other outfits.

At first, Grum had been very methodical about the whole thing, but over the course of trying everything on, he sort of stopped treating it like a thing he had to do and actually just did it for fun. He was having so much fun in fact, he didn’t notice the clatter from outside, especially since nothing immediately came from it. But a few minutes later, he stopped when he heard someone speak.

“Jrum, is that you in there?” Grum heard his daddy ask, and couldn’t help but frown a little at the fact that it was assumed he was his brother.

“Nope. I’m Grum.”

“Oh. Well, what are you doing in there?”

“Playing dress up.” Grum replied, taking that as an opportunity to put on some shoes he found, which didn’t quite fit his feet, but it was fun to wear them anyway.

Mumbo said something a bit too quiet for Grum to hear, but then he stepped into the closet, trying not to step on any clothes. When he got close to Grum, the bot turned to look over at his Daddy with a smile, Mumbo chuckling a little at the way Grum was dressed. The bot had kept the cardigan sweater on, but underneath was a bright lime green tank top. Below that was a hot pink skirt that Mumbo recognized as belonging to ‘Ariana Griande’ and Grum was currently putting on the second in a pair of very woolly boots.

“Well, it certainly looks like you were having fun, but your dad was worried about you and I think you should let him know things are fine.”

Grum was a little disappointed, but reluctantly nodded. “Do I need to take everything off?”

“No, I think staying dressed up will help your case.”

It turned out staying in their outfit really did help Grum’s case. Grian was at first worried about something with robots and closets, but upon seeing Grum, the bot could barely explain themself before Grian lit up and cooed over how adorable Grum looked. He scrambled to get his comm out to take pictures while Grum smiled, their screen flickering a magenta color which neither of their dads managed to catch, and it was gone by the time Grian finally took some pictures.

From there, Grum was allowed to back in the closet and dress up a few more times, feeling themself smile more and more as their dads took pictures, and by the end, their dad offered to make some more outfits so they could have more to play with. Grum of course said yes, but then came the dreaded clean up, and they started work on that. They sighed when they started, and over time, Grum could feel it become less of a game and more of a chore for him, which was how it was planned, but he couldn’t help but feel a little disappointed.

After everything was all cleaned up, he mentally checked that off his list and looked at what was next. He didn’t know what his brother was up to, but he was hoping that playing pretend would be okay on his own. The hermits certainly seemed to come up with stories on their own, so he could do the same. Since Jrum always used Scar’s village, Grum tried to think of a different place, eventually settling on Cleo and Keralis’ city.

When he arrived in the city, Grum put down a shulker box and unloaded all his items into it, then put the shulker into his inventory. His whole goal was to make a story while walking the streets, which would hopefully be helped by the presence of the armor stands littered around. He looked around, trying to figure out where exactly to start from, eventually noticing the main road ending near the ferris wheel and deciding to start from there. Ideas ranged from a kid out on their own for the first time or one who was separated from their family. Eventually he settled on the first idea, not wanting to figure out being a worried child.

Grum took a moment to mess with his ‘boxes’ and ‘files’, then he walked over to the outdoor bar area and took a seat, looking around. The place wasn’t that populated, the area down the street having all the armor stands, so it was up to Grum’s imagination. He stared, half glaring at the empty spaces, willing for something to appear to help him along. But nothing happened, making him imitate a sigh. Well, time to figure it out.

He had gotten off the Ferris wheel. And then he came to this… empty stall… no not empty. The… the owner just had to step away for a lunch break, because they can’t eat their own food all the time. It would hurt profits. But the food was a balance in taste, portion and price, so Grum was willing to wait.

He actually waited a bit too long, forgetting about playing pretend, then he reminded himself and was served an invisible bowl of redstone, which he ‘ate’, then he was off to explore more of the city. He didn’t get that far before joining a pair of armor stands, pretending they were the ones taking him to visit the city.

Thinking of them as parents didn’t fit right, especially since they were outfitted with masks of two other hermits, who were definitely not his dads, but technically, he wasn’t Grum right now he was… Well, Grum looked between the masks of Cub and Stress. Maybe Cress? That sounded like an okay name to pretend with. Yeah, Cress was a kid growing up in the city with their dads- er, parents. And they took a trip today to the ferris wheel and now… Grum looked around before spotting one of the armor stands set up to look like they were trapped in webs, and remembered the superheroes. That was perfect. They- Cress- was going to see the heroes and get enamored and run off. So they did that.

They pretended that they were at first watching the villains get beat up by Spider-Cleo, then suddenly the super villains game in to fight her, getting it to a one on two situation. Almost as soon as they had thought of that, Grum noticed the darker clouds rolling in and the rumbling of thunder. It was a perfect mood change.

As the bot went through the streets, they couldn’t help but giggle a little at a spider managing to spawn in a darker area. Of course a spider army was being summoned to help fight the bad guys. Grum still needed to fight it off, but it was fun either way. Simply a mind controlled spider that was being turned.

Grum made their way East at the end of the street, passing by some people spray painting a wall with some familiar faces. Then after a bit more, they went South through a bit of a tunnel. The street didn’t have much on it, but obviously everything was pretty dangerous right now, so Cress was going to have to go from building to building to hide from the fighting if they wanted to keep watching.

The first building wasn’t that exciting since Grum took one look at the elevator and decided he didn’t want to go up that high. The next building seemed like some sort of office space, but it had big windows, so ‘Cress’ was glad to use those to watch the ‘battle’. The last building Grum almost missed, not being as fancy as the others and having normal wooden doors as an entrance. They still noticed it of course, but failed to look at the logo on top of it, or rather, the face, being too caught up in the game they were playing.

So Grum walked into the building, and was instantly bombarded by leftover posters from the election. Specifically for the Get Gorgeous campaign. Grum stood there, frozen as he looked between everything around them in the room. They tried to keep from panicking, screen flickering pink, but it was too much, and they ran out the door, a zombie or something from within the nearby walls making a noise that spooked the bot.

They ran out of the building, the first thing they noticed being the jungle in the distance. Just wanting to go home, they ran in that direction, only to get stopped at the end of a pier, a wall in the water ahead stopping them from making any progress. With the mix of their panic and the darkness from the storm, Grum thought they saw something out of the corner of their eye and ran the other way, back into the city, now worse than before.

At first, they were running right back to the building they just left, but then they took a sharp left turn down an alley. They passed one armor stand before seeing another, backlit in a horrible way that when Grum crashed into it, they looked up and screamed, once again running away. They took another turn to go down the labeled ‘Crime Alley’ before crashing into someone else, this time being grabbed. “Grum, what’re you doin’ ‘ere? Where’s Grian ‘n Mumbo? Where’re yer dads?”

Cleo was able to call Doc over quickly enough, him already meeting with Keralis. Mumbo showed up next, Grian apparently retrieving Jrum. After that were Iskall and Stress, Iskall being the most helpful in explaining what exactly he had done when messing with Grum’s circuits the first time around.

At first, Grum felt pushed on the sidelines, everyone talking about him and not to him. But while Doc was busy talking with Mumbo and Iskall, meaning Stress was also in a similar position. Because of that, after a few minutes, the bot scooted over to Stress.

“How’re you doin’ luv?” Stress asked when she noticed Grum, trying to sound positive, but Grum could tell she was worried, probably about him.

“Okay.” Grum answered. “I just got spooked by monsters, that’s all. I don’t know why everyone’s worried.”

“Well, you are still young. I’m sure it’s jus’ when Cleo called yer dads, they might’ve panicked as much as you were.” Stress explained, comforting Grum.

“I guess. But it’s just frustrating cuz I was just playing and now I’ve been stopped for… it feels like nothing.” Grum pouted. “Jrum never has to deal with stuff like this when he’s playing.”

Stress frowned just a little. “Well after he went missing, everyun reacted the same way luv. If I remember correctly, he was sorta grounded a bit after runnin’ off like that.”

Grum sighed, but then nodded. “I guess. But I didn’t just run away! I said where I was gonna be! And I can’t control the weather but I did well.” The bot argued, and then Stress tried to calm him a bit, pulling him in a hug. “I just wanted to play… why is that so bad?”

“It’s not luv.” Stress answered, only briefly moving away from the hug to shoo Doc from getting closer and upsetting the bot even more.

“Can we just go home?” Grum then spoke up, making Stress look towards Mumbo to see what he thought. Then, before anyone could say more, Grum quickly spoke again, throwing everyone off. “Please Mum?”

Grum crept towards his dad’s room, hoping he could wake one of them up to cuddle with after his nightmare. Ever since the incident at the city followed by what happened with Stress, things had gotten seemingly worse. Doc was constantly over to talk with Grum’s dads. Stress too sometimes, though more infrequently. Etho also seemed to stop by here and there, conversing about redstone, specifically Grum’s internal workings.

All the events and talks and whatnot didn’t help Grum, the bot being kept in the dark to the point he started eavesdropping, wanting some clue on what was going on, why everyone was acting as scared as he felt. And the stress from that led to nightmares which ended up making things worse. So now he was hoping that maybe he could wake up one of his dads and have some way to calm down.

But instead it didn’t seem he would have to, as when Grum approached the door, he could hear them talking. It made him hesitate for a moment, not wanting to interrupt them, but this was sort of important. And it wasn’t as if he hadn’t already started listening into conversations. Maybe what they were talking about would be enough to help. Or instead, as Grum started listening, it could make it worse.

“-what would you suppose we tell Jrum?” Though he was speaking quietly, Grum recognized his daddy’s voice as the one talking.

“I don’t know!” his dad replied, sounding upset, voice in a harsh whisper. “Maybe we just turn him off too!”

Turn him off? Too? Were Grum’s dads planning to… to shut him off for good? Is that what everyone kept visiting about?

“You don’t mean that.”

“I do! Grum’s already breaking, so it’s only a matter of time before the same happens with Jrum, and the end of the season is so close. No one would notice if we didn’t bring them along.”

Grum was frozen in place. Sure, things seemed like a mess to him, but… but he was a kid. It couldn’t actually be that bad. He was just overreacting and the Hermits would be able to help. Should be able to help. But instead they were going to, what? Get rid of the problem? And then get rid of Jrum as well? “Grian, you know the Hermits would notice.”

“Then we make an excuse. Maybe we just send them away instead so no one can find out.” And Grum just stared at the door. They didn’t want it. They were going to throw it out. Make it someone else’s problem. And even hearing all of this, it just felt numb, all the panic and worry gone and filled with… nothing.

Mumbo said more, but Grum didn’t listen any more. Just turned around and walked back. Past the bedroom and down the hall. If it wasn’t wanted. It would leave. Easy as that. It did gather simple supplies. An old diamond sword, some gold boots and a number of rockets to use with its replacements for elytra.

After a bit of hesitation, it also gathered a large amount of charged redstone. Grum didn’t need to eat, but it needed to stay charged, so with a lack of a mobile charger, the special redstone would work as a substitute. Plenty of supplies for a long journey.

The elevator down to the basement was too loud, so Grum simply walked outside and down the main steps. It went through the main portal there, and trekked to the main portion of the nether hub, reaching the section just below bedrock and starting on the East tunnel before heading North. The same direction that Jrum had a while ago on his adventure.

Using about a dozen rockets, Grum found itself in the upside down, the furthest in the nether it was aware that the hermits had gone, at least in terms of with created pathways. In the mirrored version of the mansion, a portal was already created, giving Grum access back to the overworld, and into a village on the other side.

It was still night of course, the villagers asleep and the iron golem of the place keeping the place protected. Grum stared at it for a moment, thinking about how it had much more use than itself, wondering if it would do better to stay and assist. But no. As long as Grum were defective, the Hermits might come looking for it, which they could while active. So if Grum was doing to decide one last thing, it would be when it shut down.

The robot looked at its supply of six remaining rockets. Those would dictate how far it would go. And then it would find a cave, and turn off for good. After using the first rocket to help take off, Grum started gliding, knowing that based on the conditions when flying, the boost of a single rocket could last virtually indefinitely. A few mountains as well as weather in the area changed the conditions for the worse, but Grum still got pretty far, going directly North for so much of the journey.

When down to two rockets, Grum suddenly went east, knowing that after such a long straight path, a sudden curve would be completely impossible to find. After that, it was just looking for a place to finally stop, Grum using the final rocket to reach a floating island with a single tree and two sheep.

Grum dug into the dirt under the tree, making a place to stay, even using its sword to chip at the stone to get deeper. Then Grum used the dirt to block up most of the way in, though still giving a way to view the landscape ahead. It checked the coordinates, seeing that they were North 22,936 blocks from the shopping district, where the center of the world stood. No way to be found as long as they were on. And so. Grumbot turned itself off.

Jrum woke up early, as if knowing was something was wrong to begin with. With everything that had been happening with his brother, he had had to be the more responsible one. Having to do that made him glad that he didn’t need to do it all the time, but also wonder if Grum had to deal with something so exhausting himself and that helped explain what was going on. It was probably something to bring up to their dads. Well, maybe later, because there was something a little more important right now.

Even though it was so early, Grum wasn’t in bed and connected to his charger. Jrum unplugged himself to check his brother’s charger, worried to see that it was cold from disuse. It wouldn’t be that cold if he had woken up early, so he either hadn’t used it last night or stopped in the middle of the night.

That fact wasn’t entirely concerning. Grum had already had night where a nightmare left him with their dads. So there was a good change that had simply happened again. But for some reason, Jrum couldn’t shake the thought that something was wrong, so instead of going back to bed, or finding a book to read to pass the time or something else, he got up and walked to their dads’ room and knocked on the door. And Jrum was very glad he did when the response from behind the door was ‘Who is it?’

“It’s Jrum. Is Grum in there? He’s not in bed.” The bot asked, and there was a moment of silence before frantic movement came from the other side of the door. Grian opened the door, having already thrown his sweater on while Mumbo was quickly buttoning his shirt.

“What do you mean Grum’s not in bed?” Grian asked as Jrum scanned the bedroom in case somehow his brother was there with no one realizing it.

“I mean he’s not in bed. His charger’s cold and everything. I thought he would be here because of that.”

Before Grian could ask anything more, Mumbo spoke up, communicator in hand and elytra on even though he hadn’t put in his blazer or tie. “Grum’s offline. He’s not even appearing on the world list. We need to go see Xisuma. I’ve already sent something in chat.”

“Wait but where was he last?” Grian asked, knowing the system they had on the bots should be helpful in a situation like this.

“It’s just giving an error, which is why I want to see X right away. Jrum, do you want to stay here or come with us?”

Jrum looked between his dads, quickly thinking it over. If the roles were flipped, what would Grum do? Well, he didn’t need to think too hard. It had already happened. And Grum had stayed at home in case he came back while their dads were looking. “I’m gonna stay here, just in case.”

Grian nodded and then gave Jrum a long tight hug until Mumbo was pulling him away to leave. It seemed a little odd to Jrum, assuming they were just worried about him. He didn’t know that both his dads had a very good idea of what might have happened and when Grum disappeared.

Mumbo and Grian were resting after plenty of searching. They had visited Xisuma and told him about what happened, at least what they knew of everything. He agreed to look into it while the pair joined the other hermits in looking for Grum, the admin confirming there was nothing that showed the bot had left the world.

The two had searched for a while until Grian managed to injure his wing. While he was still physically fine to fly, Mumbo could tell the same couldn’t be said for mentally, so they returned to Grian’s base to rest. Grian kept trying to go back out searching, eventually admitting he needed something to keep his mind away from the thought it was all his fault.

Mumbo did his best to comfort Grian, giving him reassurances, when there was a knock on the bedroom door. “Do either of you have a moment?” It was Xisuma’s voice, which made Mumbo smile slightly and look back at Grian.

“See, that didn’t take far too long. I’m sure he’s found Grum. You stay here while I talk with him and I’ll find out what’s going on.” And Mumbo gave one more comforting hug before leaving the room hopefully, before his expression fell at Xisuma’s. “What’s wrong? I’m assuming you found Grum. Is he hurt?”

The admin shook his head. “I don’t know. That’s the thing. I can’t find him. I’ve checked and… well, it’s something you should see for yourself.” and he took off his helmet, which surprised Mumbo, who knew the admin needed it to breathe.

Before the redstoner could say more, the helmet was put on his own head and Xisuma was pressing a button on the side of the helmet. The list of people in the world appeared, Grum’s name missing from the list, then another button and the screen projected on the inner visor flashed red. After reading the words a few times, Xisuma pulled the helmet back, but Mumbo was still left comprehending the text.

The Mysterious Case of Queerbaiting

BBC Sherlock

There’s one thing about BBC Sherlock that has never made sense to me. As I’m sure many of you are aware (and something I’ve talked about before), BBC Sherlock has been accused of Queerbaiting, of intentionally setting up John and Sherlock as being attracted to each other but never following through with that or even intending to do it. And it’s one of those things that has just always baffled me; I can’t make it make sense. A lot has already been said about the way things are portrayed in the show and what the subtext behind a million different things could mean (seriously, I love that I am part of a fandom with so many perceptive and intelligent people; watching the show is only half the fun) and how none of it makes sense. Today, I would like to use my powers of deduction get to the bottom of this mystery.

The way I see it, there are 3 possible explanations.

1. The Producers of the Show Queerbaited

I have to admit, this seems unlikely given that one of them is literally a gay man. Why would a gay man knowingly and intentionally engage in something like this? Why would a gay man write a script that constantly pokes at Watson’s sexuality if the only point was to make it into a joke? To say ‘oh, no, the poor straight guy is constantly mistaken as gay. Look at how defensive he is getting, hahaha, what a funny joke’. That just makes no sense. It makes no sense for Mark Gatiss to have gone to the lengths he has gone to within the show, from whatever direction he gave the actors so that they portray an obvious chemistry between Sherlock and John to having a jealousy trope at John and Mary’s wedding except it’s Sherlock getting Jealous over John’s ex commander to this interesting thing about the best man speech to Mary saying ‘neither one of us were his first’ or ‘the man we both love’ or ‘I know what the two of you could become’ to Sherlock putting John Watson face on The Ideal Man to all the gay artwork in TBB (I could not for the life of me find this meta even though I know I saved it, and I am so distressed) to a thousand other things that the fandom has discussed over and over and over again. Who puts that much effort into queerbaiting? Especially when you would have a vested interest representation? So, it just doesn’t make sense for those directly involved with the show the be the reason.

2. Higher Ups at BBC Told Them No

This seems much more plausible to me, however I still doubt it. I can’t say I know just a whole lot about BBC, but I do know they have tended to be on the more progressive side of things, and I just really can’t see any of the higher ups just flat out refusing to allow the writers to make Johnlock canon. The first season gets a pass because I’m pretty sure that openly same sex couples weren’t allowed in media at the time (I think it was allowed in 2011, but I’m honestly not sure. I’m in the US, not the UK, so if I’ve gotten this detail wrong, please correct me). But they had 3 other seasons and another 7 years to make it happen, and I just don’t think that the higher ups at BBC would have just flatly said ‘no’. So, that leaves the last explanation.

3. Someone Other Than Those Involved With The Show Stopped Them

The majority of the Sherlock Holmes stories are in public domain. Copyright expired in 1980 in Canada and in 2000 for the UK (X). This would seem to make it a pretty cut and dry case: in the UK, you can do pretty much whatever you want with the Sherlock Holmes stories. But it’s no quite so simple. The US works a little different because copywrite law isn’t the same (isn’t he US just great?). As it stands, there are still 6 stories today that the Conan Doyle Estate still has the exclusive rights to in the US. If I understand how the copywrite law works correctly, that would have been 14 stories back in 2010. But, that shouldn’t have affected anything going on in the UK, right? Theoretically, no. The Conan Doyle Estate wouldn’t have had any legal rights to coveting the characters and the stories in the UK. However, that doesn’t mean that those involved with the show wouldn’t have been extremely apprehensive of the power that the Estate wielded, especially considering the previous decade of legal battles. Only 3 cases are listed here, but the Conan Doyle Estate is very protective of its copyright of the work (as evident by the fact that they are literally trying to sue Netflix, among others, for portraying characters in a way they supposedly weren’t portrayed until later books). There were other court cases after 2010, however. A decisive court case in 2013 declared once and for all that the stories written prior to 1923 were completely in public domain and that a license wasn’t needed to create things based on any of the stories prior to those dates (something the Estate had convinced BBC of when they first created BBC Sherlock). However, an appeal by the Estate was later made, stating “Sherlock Holmes is a ‘complex’ character, that his background and attributes had been created over time, and that to deny copyright on the whole Sherlock Holmes character would be tantamount to giving the famous detective ‘multiple personalities.’” The appeal was, thankfully, thrown out. But it’s the attempt that matters.

Oh, and here’s a fun little tidbit, the 2 stories that have, perhaps, the strongest evidence of there being more than just friendship (this quote, this quote, and this quote (which was said after Holmes stated that, if he had hypothetically loved someone, he would kill the person that killed the person he loved)) come from the stories The Problem of Thor Bridge (the first quote) and The Adventure of the Three Garridebs (the last 2), which both belonged to the Estate in the US until after the final season of the show.

So, let’s get into the minds of BBC, for a moment. Someone has decided they want to reimage Sherlock in a new and unique way: modern day. The Holmes Estate has been fighting legal battles in America for the past decade and has won all of them, and has also issued the verdict that to make stories, you need a license. You say ‘okay’ and go along with it because you’re a big corporation that can afford to do such a thing. When the first season of the show airs, it isn’t legal to have openly gay characters, so everything has to be regulated to subtext. You outright state that being gay is okay because you want to let people know you are in full support of homosexuality, even if it isn’t legal yet. The writers and producers of the show are huge ACD fanboys and BIG fans of The Private Life of Sherlock Holmes, so, yeah, there’s some gay subtext. By the second season, hey! Homosexuality is legal! Except the 2 stories with the biggest indication of Sherlock and John’s attraction towards each other are still very much in the hands of the Estate, who has spent the past decade fighting legal battles. You may be able to pay for a license, but a lawsuit really isn’t something you’d like to go through. Whether the Estate has any legal standing to do such a thing or not, a lawsuit would be a long, messy battle. By the third season, a court case in America has decided that anything written prior to 1923 doesn’t need a license (damn, that’s 2 seasons of being successfully intimidated into a license). However, the two stories with greatest evidence still belong to the Estate, and the Estate tried to weasel their way into owning more of Sherlock than they should by arguing about his character. They probably wouldn’t take well to an openly gay Sherlock, would they? By season 4, the same problem still exists. Cut to 2020. Both of the stories with those quotes have entered public domain. But, uh oh, a month, a month before the 10th anniversary of your show, the news breaks that the Estate is filing yet another lawsuit, this time against multiple different parties, one of them being the mega corporation of Netflix (god, that’s some balls right there) that what they did broke copyright law because it portrayed characters in a way they supposedly weren’t portrayed until later stories, stories the Estate still owns (that is some balls right there). So you might feel the need to cover your ass a bit. Despite the past decade of saying that they characters you have portrayed are nothing but platonic, the fans don’t seem to buy it, and, in hindsight, there’s a lot of reasons not to. Maybe something needs to be created that subtly tells fans that they really are just looking too far into it. And, what great luck, a YouTube channel is asking you to make something for the 10th anniversary.

Is this what happened? I don’t really know. I have nothing more than circumstantial evidence and guesswork here to go off of. I’m not privy to the private thoughts of Mark Gatiss or Steven Moffat or any of the head honchos at BBC. I don’t know what kind of executive decisions are made in the best interest of the company. All I know is that the Conan Doyle Estate is hanging on to whatever copyrights they can possibly manage, that they are willing to level lawsuits on, quite frankly, ridiculous terms, and that having a lawsuit put against you is no laughing matter and that those whose work revolves around Sherlock Holmes and creating stories about him would want to tread carefully. This explanation is, admittedly, far fetched. But it’s the only one that really makes sense. It’s the only one that would explain why a gay man and a generally progressive company would have a show that has layer upon layer upon layer saying that there is more between John and Sherlock than just friendship, as well as a rabid fanbase that they know ship it, and still not deliver, even attempt to squash such mindsets.

There is, however, one final note I would like to end this on. I have talked before about how I think there will be another season, if the stars align and schedules allow such a thing. The best estimates of when another season might come out is 2022 or 2023, and I’m inclined to think the later year (god, that seems so far away). The year that the last story will become completely open to the public and the entirety of Sherlock Holmes will be public domain is 2023. So, maybe there is hope.

Not sure if I like the future vision. I'm not the best at these puzzel type games but I'm worried it'll make it too easy.

Also what does skunkape want with the molemen?

C.O.P.S. are freeloaders now

They don't like Skunkape because he brought advanced technology to earth

Bluster Blaster went to Vegas with Bosco

The demons in the Desoto aren't so bad as long as we "don't turn on the ac."

"Why do we have jumper cables, neither of us know how to use them." "It's simple, Sam! The red cable clamps to the left nipple and the black cable--" "Neither of us know how to use them legally, Max."

Let's got to Stinky's!

Flint Paper us here!

Oooh, it looks different.

"Where do you keep all that change?" "In my sock, of course." "You're naked, where do you keep your sock?" "That's... none of your damn buisness."

"But your the only hairy, overweight, domineering control freak I need, Sam." "Gee thanks, Max. ...I think."

Let's talk to... Flint 😍

He just wants to focus on his spaghetti which, y'know, fair

Whoops, I made Sam try to sneak into the kitchen

I just realized Sam and Max were the ones to cause her death (it was an accident but still)

Mama Bosco is trying

Sam & Max blipped out existence for a moment 😮

Max is refusing to go through the moleman tunnel

"I miss touching things." "Yeah, touching is my third favorite thing to do to things." *Sam and Mama give him weirded out looks* "In case anyone was curious, the second is licking."

Mama Bosco, honey, Skunkape is clearly evil

Mama basically confirming Max is going to explode. Is that where the angst comes in

Sam deliberately hitting the traffic cone made me laugh

Ok, I think I know what to do

Got the broth

Aw, Girl set herself and Gramps up for relationship councilsing.

Why the heck isn't Girl Stinky's cellphone number showing up!?

Omg I forgot to give Flint the helmet I'm so stupid that's why it didn't show up

Wait is Flint married to someone named Doris?

Flint though Stinky and Sam were in, ugh, "cahoots"

Oh, Doris is his allergy specialist

Ok, I got the battery

Max holding Superball's hand 😭

Oh, wait can we go in the mole room

It's a giant toaster?

Ew all the mole juice is on the floor

Sam immediately goes to hug Sam for the teleport

"ENJOYING THE RIDE SAM!?"

"Note to self, when traveling through Max's brain, keep your eyes shut!"

I tried traveling to Sybil, it didn't work 😢

Oh, Girl Stinky's cellphone!

Oh, Grandpa Stinky has the badge

Haha suck it Gramps

Aw, Skunkape doesn't appreciate him 😢

Let's go back to Mama Bosco

Oooh, Shiny pidgeon

"It's an engagement ring." "Sam, this is so sudden! I-I don't know what to say!" "Quiet, bonehead!"

Can... Can I use the ring on Max?

Oooh Pizza

The pigeon actually ate the phone

"Pick up that phone, Max." "I'm not touching it!" "*sighs*"

Oh cool, I like pawn shops

Sam, honey the fact that you could pick up a manhole cover at all is impressive. Those things can weigh anywhere between 70-300 lbs.

New headcanon that Sam has super strength, he's just oblivious to it

Haha, and I thought the space ape was going to slip on the peel

Oh wait, I think I just figured out how to get rid of the space apes at Momma Boscos

Hahaha gorilla fall on other gorilla

Ew, naked mole man

Max looking adoringly at the toy store

Oh, so this is the part they get kidnapped

Ew, the narrator is back 😕

"You'd be surprised just how many fetishes there are that involve Sam and me."

Oh, so Girl Stinky and Skunkape aren't dating

Skunkape sent her a dick pic?!?!?

Oh wow, he really turned it around on us, huh.

How did they not notice the bomb on Max's back until now

Sam smacked Max and now he's just.... hovering in the air

Well, that was easy to get out of

Mama Bosco saved us sort of

Queen 👑

Oh Momma, you crazy inventor

Oh, so we're turning their building into an alternate dimension

"You keep coming up with creepy disaster scenarios that always end with you eating me. It's getting annoying." "If you don't like it then stop looking so damned tasty."

Molemam cultists

The boys' first instinct upon seeing a creepy box is to pull a pandora

Max pointing and laughing as Skunkape gets sucked away is everything

Ew Narrator is back again

Skeleton Sam and Max????

6x21: Let It Bleed

Then:

Dean and Cas broke up

Now:

March 15, 1937

Providence, Rhode Island

It was a dark and stormy night, and HP Lovecraft sits at his typewriter clicking away. He finishes his manuscript, and his door slowly creaks open. He pulls out a revolver and heads to the hallway, but quickly backs back into the room and locks the door. A window blasts open and a shadowy figure is there. He pleads with it --but becomes blood cannon fodder anyway.

Dean continues to dissect what could have gone differently to prevent his breakup with Cas. Sam tries being the logical friend --but there’s no explaining heartbreak, folks. Bobby comes in to tell them that when Cas popped in for his late night tet-a-tet with Dean, he stole a journal. But don’t worry, Bobby had a copy.

Upon reading it, Bobby discovers a mention of HP Lovecraft. Dean doesn’t know who that is --and you’re going to tell me the dude that knows horror movies like the back of his hand and reads Stephen King doesn’t know who the father of horror is? And I know that Dean lies to cover up things he thinks other people would look down on him for, but this would be a weird moment to do that.

Anyway, Bobby thinks Lovecraft knew something about purgatory.

Meanwhile, Ben is chilling in his room reading Cthulhu graphic novels while his mom is watching the sportsball with her new beau. Demons bust in and gut the boyfriend right away. One takes after Ben. Ben gets to his room and calls Dean in a panic. He doesn’t know what’s out there and he can’t get to the shotgun in Lisa’s closet. Dean tells him to jump out his window. It’s too late --Crowley’s there and has both Ben and Lisa.

Crowley tells Dean that no harm will come to them if he backs off from the purgatory plan.

Sam throws some salt on Dean’s wound and asks if Cas knows about this. “We gotta assume that he does.” OUCH.

While Bobby heads off to follow the Lovecraft lead, Dean and Sam set to finding Lisa and Ben. They summon Balthazar and tell him that Crowley is alive. He blinks and tells them Cas already informed him. They then tell him about splitting the souls in purgatory plan. Balthazar knew that too, ahem. He refuses to help find Ben and Lisa.

Sam thinks they should call Cas. “WE’RE NOT CALLING CAS.” This is a man in pain, Sam, he needs time.

Bobby, meanwhile, interviews someone who possesses a large collection of Lovecraft’s private letters. He asks about March 10, 1937 specifically, and the dude wonders if he’s working with the other guy --”trench coat, looks like Colombo, talks like Rainman.” We’re supposed to assume he’s describing Cas, but ?? okay. They’re competitors actually.

The guy tells Bobby that Lovecraft had a dinner party with other blackmagic followers. They were getting together to perform a ritual to open a door into another dimension. He has --or had-- letters describing the dinner. Bobby leaves, knowing exactly how the letters disappeared.

Bobby discusses the case with Sam, revealing that one guest of the party -the maid’s son- didn’t die and has been in a mental ward since that night. He’s gong to interview the man now.

Dean, meanwhile, is lining the demons up and taking them down if they don’t answer his questions.

For Murderous Rampage Science:

Sam tries to get his brother to take a break, but Dean is 100% on an emotional bender and will not stop. Sam then heads outside to pray to Cas --pleading with him to bring Ben and Lisa home.

When Cas doesn’t appear, Sam walks away, dejected. Only Cas is there, invisible to Sam. AND I WANT TO TEAR OUT MY EYES.

Cas confronts Crowley. Crowley was “merely exploiting the obvious loophole.” Cas demands he tell him where they are.

Crowley tells Cas the only way to save Lisa and Ben is for him to find Purgatory.

For Literal Science:

Cas flaps away when Balthazar summons him. They meet in a wooded area, and Balthazar confronts Cas about his partnership with Crowley.

Balthazar confirms that Cas would be the vessel to take on the souls from purgatory. He could explode from all that energy. Cas assures him he won’t (weeps). Cas demands Balthazar tell him if he’s with Cas, and Balthazar laughs but agrees.

Bobby interviews the maid’s son, and discovers Cas was already there. Bobby asks for the story. The man tells what was said at the time, but then asks, “Do you believe in monsters?” He tells Bobby that the door did open that night, and whatever came through took over his mother. Then the others died. Bobby gives his condolences to the man, and he shows Bobby a picture of his mother. Bobby recognizes her.

Dean prepares his Tortures for Demons™ when his foot drags part of the devil’s trap away. The demon immediately gets the drop on Dean, only for Cas to flap in (or turn visible) just in time to save Dean’s bacon.

Dean’s...ungrateful. Surly, even! Cas apologizes about Lisa and Ben, and he’s hurt when Dean doesn’t believe that he had nothing to do with their abduction.

“Dean, I do everything that you ask,” Cas pleads. “I always come when you call and I am your friend - still. Despite your lack of faith in me, and now your threats.” Cas is just asking for backup this ONE TIME. (And you know what? Knowing the crap these Winchester boys have pulled, I always felt like Cas made a good point here.) They lob soulful looks at each other. Cas promises to rescue Lisa and Ben if Dean will just PLEASE stand down and let him absorb every single monster soul EVER it’s NOT A BIG DEAL. This is entirely the wrong tactic, and Dean tells Cas to go back to Crowley and he’ll save Lisa and Ben on his own.

Cas flaps away. Soulfully.

Bobby arrives at Eleanor-the-Dragon’s door. She’s at a little cabin in the middle of nowhere - one of her safe houses. He confronts her with the old photo and demands to know her agenda. “You know, we’re not all alike,” she retorts. She reacts similarly poorly to Bobby complaining about sleeping with her without knowing she was a monster. BOBBY! WASH YOUR MOUTH OUT RIGHT NOW. She tells him that the world’s lucky that she’s who popped through the portal. The professor is on Team Earth. Bobby begs to know the secret of the portal so that he can protect her from Cas.

Balthazar flaps in on Sam. He’s joining Team Winchester because he’s terribly concerned about Cas’s life choices. He flies them close to Crowley’s angel-warded lockup, and Dean and Sam swoop in to save Lisa and Ben.

They split up inside the warehouse - always a sensible plan. Sadly, Sam “Soft Noggin” Winchester gets knocked out IMMEDIATELY. Sam plz. Dean bursts into Lisa and Ben’s prison like a little angry blur of knives and in short order, he’s killed all the demons standing guard. They start to flee, when Lisa holds Ben at knifepoint, her eyes flashing black.

The demon goes all in on the mental torture, telling Ben that Dean’s his real father (JK!) and that Dean is Lisa’s WORST EVER MISTAKE. While Dean catalogues the internal damage, he and Lisa fight. He sheathes the demon blade and starts an exorcism, and I look directly at the camera. Demon Lisa’s got another trick up her sleeve. While the exorcism progresses, the demon grabs a tool and jabs it into Lisa’s gut. Then, she gives Dean a choice: exorcise her and Lisa bleeds out or let Lisa remain animate (but a demon puppet). Wrenchingly, Dean finishes the exorcism.

He makes sure Ben’s armed with a salt-round shotgun and then they head out of the factory. Ben shoots his first demon while Dean shouts at him to “pull it together” and I...just…….

Guys.

I’m just going to box these feelings up and stuff them in my Dean Winchester is a Sad Child attic, while humming Cat’s in the Cradle to myself.

They find Sam and head for a hospital, Dean muttering the whole time that she’s FINE Lisa is JUST FINE she is FINE. Cut to the hospital where Lisa is NOT FINE, but also is not dead! Yet!

Cas flaps in.

Dean refuses his apology. REFUSES IT. But Cas didn’t come to apologize. Okay, he DID, but he primarily came to heal Lisa miraculously. Dean looks up at him like he completely forgot that Cas can heal.

For Healing Cas Science:

In Jensen Ackles your face is a menace news, Dean displays grief, joy, relief, anger, betrayal, sad cat memes, and more in like less than five seconds of screen time. He thanks Cas for healing Lisa. “I wish this changed anything.” Regrets lie thickly between them. Dean asks for one more favor. He wants himself erased from Lisa and Ben’s memories for good.

When Lisa wakes, Ben explains that they were in a car crash. Dean enters, and introduces himself as the guy who hit them. GAH. The shitty things these characters do!!! Excuse me while I hurl knives at the wall for a solid thirty minutes!

“I lost control for a minute,” Dean says, not AT ALL metaphorically about their time together. “And I just want to say that I’m sorry.” He heads out, leaving the Braedens entirely unprotected from future supernatural threats and missing a substantial chunk of their lives. Hope Cas also cleaned up Matt’s body??? And the busted door??? (Side note: does anyone else have weird squid emotions thinking about Cas willfully blanking their memories when his own memories have been tampered with time and time again? I SURE DON’T!)

Dean meets judgmental Sam back at the Impala. Sam, I see your judgment, and I judge thee valid. Dean talks about his emotions in an open and healt----hahaha nope. Dean tells Sam that if he ever mentions the Braedens to him then he’ll break Sam’s nose. He punctuates that with mournful, red-rimmed eyes which definitely deal at least 1.5X damage against Sam’s puppy eyes. They drive off into the sad music.

Elsewhere, Eleanor Visyak leaves her cabin, only to encounter Cas behind her. Cas flaps her away. CAAAAAAAAS!

You QUOTE Miette??!!

Your chocolate's been in my peanut butter for far too long

What’s with the slow burn?

You’re just a man. I’m better off protecting myself
