Another rainy day on Ord Mantel. You sighed leaning against the window watching the droplets dowse the entire city. You liked it a lot you realized. It made the city lights glow in their neon colors and air was always cleaner the next day. It made Ord Mantel somewhat beautiful, which seemed impossible… except the little moments like this.

It’s been two weeks since the boys started working for Cid… and it was going… alright.

She had decided it was best to post you all up in the apartment above the bar as long as you helped her with the chores around the place and helped serve the customers when they’d meander in. It covered your rent, she said. You were starting to think she just liked having the company around. It gave you good cover though while the boys ran odd jobs.

You and the others decided it would be best to keep you away from potential spies and bounty hunters. You didn’t have a problem staying at Cid’s, the deal worked out fine anyways, and it could be so much worse.

After a long day scrubbing the bar down with soap for the first time in probably months, you were pooped. You had taken a long relaxing shower before curling up in the circular window over looking the main street. You had created a little nest there, where you kept your snacks within reach and your holonovel near by. The boys said they’d be home soon so you were just trying to kill the time instead of eagerly waiting.

They had been sent to rescue an ex separatist senator to Echo’s dismay. You were wondering how that was going while you read through the filthy smut on your holo screen. You could only imagine the chaos these boys were bringing to this unsuspecting plant.

The schedule system seemed to be working well too. If they were able, you’d spend the day with all of them. Echo resumed your combat training in the back courtyard behind Cid’s place, and at night you’d spend it with your alphas.

Echo says you’re making good progress. Though it didn’t really feel like it. You think he just likes wacking you around with a stick for fun. The others sometimes would join in giving you someone to spar with. Wrecker obviously was the most difficult. There was no possible option where you could ever gain the upper hand with him.

Echo had you graduate to fighting with various make shift weapons. Cid’s broom handle, a durasteel pipe, and a dull knife from the bar. It was exhilarating and part of you was really starting to like it.

You hadn’t realized how good of a teacher Echo was. He says it’s because he had extra training himself when he was a shiny. He was really able to help you strengthen your punches to the point that Hunter would actually shift backwards a bit now when you’d strike. It was giving you some hope you’d actually be able to hold your own soon.

You flexed your hands noticing the small scabs forming on your knuckles. With a sigh you set your novel and looked back out at the street watching the speeders zoom by pedestrians trying to get out of the rain.

At some point, you must have dozed off, as you woke up to the sound of your door opening and a freshly showered Hunter comes walking in looking refreshed. It was his night after all.

You smiled and stretched trying to wake yourself up like a lazy tooka.

“What time is it?” You asked realizing it was dark outside now and the city lights were glowing through your window.

“We just ate dinner, thought I’d bring some up for you.” He walked over giving you a tray with some delicious smelling tip-yip. You squealed in excitement and sat up grabbing the spork suddenly feeling awake.

He walked in front of your mirror running his hands through his damp hair trying to push it out of his eyes while you dug in.

“You smell good.” You put a piece of food into your mouth liking the way he smelled after a shower. It was so undoubtably Hunter and it made you feel so safe.

He smiled flashing his k9s at you, “You’re the one that smells good mesh’la.”

You tapped your lips and he huffed a laugh before walking over and bending down to press a kiss to your mouth. You smiled kissing him again before going back to your meal.

He flopped down on your bed in the corner giving a big sigh and a stretch himself.

“How was the mission?” You asked mid-chew.

“Exhausting.” He sighed feeling himself start to relax into your soft bed.

You giggled, “Saving separatist scum is too hard for sarge?” Your baby voice made him scowl.

“It seems that the separatists and anyone not in line with the empire is on the same side now.” He rubbed his eyes, “everything is different now.”

“That we can agree on.” You shoved another bite in, “I got to hang out with a too flirty Gungan today who absolutely has a drinking problem. Told me his wife found out about his girlfriend.”

“Quite a day for you huh ad’ika?” Hunter played along with the dramatics.

You nodded, “Mhmm. I’m doing really hard work while you’re all gone.” You shrugged with a playful smirk.

“You poor thing.” He used his baby voice making you giggle.

Eating your last piece of tip-yip, you set the tray aside before walking over to Hunter and climbing onto the bed to straddle him.

“I missed you.” You leaned down kissing both his cheek bones.

“Mmm.” He hummed running his hands up your sides, “Not as much as I missed you.”

“Show me.” You smirked running your hands over his firm chest.

Hunter gripped your hips before rolling both of you and pinning you to the mattress. He smirked as he lowered himself to kiss you again this time a little hungrier. You smiled into his mouth feeling him press his hips into yours. You felt the hardness between his legs and you whimpered feeling the fluttering butterflies in your stomach and that familiar heat begin to pool in your lower belly. He gave a satisfied groan grinding into you liking the way you responded to him to prettily.

He sat back on his heels, “up love.” He helped you sit up to peel your shirt from your body. He smirked realizing you didn’t have a bra on and leaned forwards to press you back into the mattress to leave a trail of kisses down your sternum before he licked one of your hardening nipples. You moaned pushing your chest further into him while he continued to lick and suck, making you arch your back into his hot mouth. He then went down to grab the waist band of your sweats and yank them down only pulling away from your tits to slide them off of your legs.

You were just about to reach up for him again but he pushed your arms away before flipping you over onto your belly.

“Alpha.” You whined pushing your ass up trying to make contact with him again desperate for the friction.

“Shh adi’ka .” He soothed running his hands over your ass cheeks giving them a good squeeze before he brought his palm down spanking you. You yelped looking back at him already feeling the imprint of his hand welting up. He just gave you a playful smile before reaching into his waist band and pulled out his vibro blade. You sucked a breath in feeling the cold metal press to your skin. He slid the knife along your silky skin before sliding them under the waist band of your damp panties.

“Such a good girl, omega.” With his other hand he ran his fingers over your core feeling the wetness soaking through your panties. You wiggled but he withdrew his fingers, “stay still for me mesh’la.”

You huffed and willed yourself to stay still, but it was agony. He resumed his small strokes stroking your clit through the fabric of your panties while the knife continued upwards until he twisted the blade bringing the sharp side right through your panties, slicing them like butter. He growled finally seeing how wet you were already. He chucked the blade and you watched it fly across the room before impaling into the wall before driving his finger into you.

You let out a loud moan feeling him start a consistent rhythm before adding another thick finger stretching you. You wriggled against him desperate to be filled even more. It was starting to feel so delicious you were certain he could feel you start to clench down on him.

He withdrew his fingers and sat up slightly to kick your knees apart and lift your ass up in the air. He shoved down his trousers and grabbed his throbbing cock stoking git a few times before lining himself up with your aching cunt. You pushed yourself back against him feeling his tip push inside. You moaned as he surged forwards until he was flush with your ass. You cried out finally feeling the relief of him filling you. Hunter was thick, and he was so, so hard. You mewled as Hunter set the sturdy pace.

…You loved the way Hunter fucked…

He was so deliberate making sure his strokes were steady and hitting that yummy spot inside you that made your toes curl with every stroke. He also couldn’t seem to get enough of your creamy cunt. He groaned every time he could hear just how wet you are with every thrust. You think it’s because of his heightened senses, he could probably feel and her every tremor your body made as he pleasured you and you knew it drove him wild. He could probably sense every beat of your heart, and scent the small changes in your scent that let him know you were enjoying yourself.

You tried to push yourself up onto your hands but he grabbed the back of your neck pinning you back down, “take it, omega.” He snarled feeling you clench around his cock. You moaned loudly certain the others could heard you as Hunter pounded even harder. The only sound in the room was your squelching and the slap of skin on skin.

Hunter wasn’t always outwardly dominant, but everyone and awhile his alpha side trickled through and it made your entire body sing.

He pushed himself as far in as possible, mesmerized by the jiggle plush of your ass against his lap. He sighed shaking his head still unable to believe he was able to have the omega of his dreams. Your scent was making him get lost in the fog of lust.

“Fuck, pretty girl,” He slid his hand from your neck to the roots of your hair where he tugged making you whine, “do you have any idea how perfect you look? M’fuck, you were made for me mesh’la.”

“Alpha…. Ahh!” You whined as he brought his hand down onto your ass again hearing the slap ring out into the room. You moaned feeling the warming sting again making you drip down your thighs as you took Hunter as best as you could despite his roughness.

Gripping onto your hair, he pulled you up straight arching you agains this chest as he fucked you on his lap. You gripped onto his thighs absolutely loving this deliciously brutal pace. He was so deep inside you, you were starting to feel it in your stomach. You mewled feeling so damn good, so surrounded in his warmth and affection. It made you so happy.

He snaked his free hand down between your thighs to run slow meticulous circles bringing you to the edge. You clawed at his muscular thighs as you begged him not to stop feeling like you were going to cum. He smiled into the crook of your neck licking your mating gland and you shivered feeling yourself hurtle over the edge.

You let out a scream as Hunter’s fingers threw you over the edge. Your orgasm wracked through your body leaving you spent and shaking. He released your hair and wrapped his arm around your middle keeping you to his chest as he continued to thrust, feeling himself start to cum.

“Fuck.” He bit out. You felt him twitch inside you before his hips stilled and he spilled himself inside you.

You went limp against his chest hearing the rapid beating of his heart against your cheek. He pressed lazy kisses on all the skin he could reach before leaning forwards and gently guiding you down onto the mattress. He pulled out of you slowly making you groan at the empty feeling.

You felt his cum drip out of you, as he got up to grab something to clean you up with. When he came back from the bathroom, he had a damp washcloth to clean up your thighs and then himself before he tossed it to the side. Hunter curled up next to you pulling the sheets up to cover the two of you. You rolled over wanting to lay on his chest which he was happy to comply with.

He tilted your chin up for a kiss before letting you settle against him while he caught his breath.

You purred feeling satiated and tingly.

“I have my heat in a few weeks.” You said quietly knowing he could hear your whisper.

“We’ll need to make sure you get another implant after huh?” He said running his fingers through your hair.

You nodded, “How will that work, same like last time?”

“It’s whatever you want mesh’la, if you want all of us we’ll do that, or if you just want one of us we understand that too.” He kissed your forehead.

“Okay.” You smiled tracing the skeleton tattoo on his ribs with your finger.

“Who did your tattoo?” You asked.

“Crosshair.” He looked down at his arm, “He has a steadier hand than the others.”

“Did you do his?” You smiled poking him in the side.

“No, he did that on his own.” Hunter grabbed your hand before you could tickle him and pressed it to his mouth with a kiss.

“Should I get a tattoo?” You asked jokingly.

“If that’s you want sweetheart.” He pinched your cheek lightly.

You nuzzled into his side breathing him in. His scent was so warming and calming it made you feel like you were at home. The past two weeks had been interesting. You were sad Crosshair wasn’t with you anymore, but the burning agony wasn’t there anymore at least from what you could tell. It was like he was on a vacation and while you missed his presence, it didn’t seem as devastating as it might actually be. It was strange.

The only thing you worried about was being found. You didn’t know what the empire wanted with you, and frankly you didn’t want to find out… there was a tinge of anxiety that seemed impossible to dispel.

Hunter did a really good job of making you feel safe though. If anyone could make you disappear, it would be these boys.

“I can feel you thinking.” He mumbled with his eyes closed.

You squeezed him a little tighter, “I’m just thankful for you, thats all.”

He smiled and leaned down to kiss you again.

“My sweet little ‘mega.” He whispered, “We should get some sleep mesh’la, I know Echo wants you up and early.”

“Ugh.” You ran your hands up and down his chiseled abs, “Can’t you just tell him I’m tired and we can stay in bed?”

“No chance sweetheart, you look too good in those tight pants.” He chuckled.

You sighed and relented, securing your legs around his before closing your eyes and settling in. You just hoped the rain let up before Echo expected you in that courtyard.

~~~

Well you were wrong. The only word to describe your current state was… soggy.

You squeezed the water from your hair before twisting it up on top of your head to keep the loose strands out of your eyes.

“Echo please, I’m begging that we go inside.” You shivered. This was reminding you of Kashyyyk, even though that was significantly not as wet.

“Nope.” He squared up raising his wrapped fists, “You gotta get used to being uncomfortable.”

You pouted, “But omegas like comfort and warm things.” You groused. This was so not your element.

“It’s a changing universe Tiny, gotta make sure you’re ready for anything.” He gave his arms a little shake, flinging droplets, before getting into a fighting stance.

You mirrored him even though your mind was on sitting by the fire in the apartment warm and dry. You looked to Wrecker and the others who sat under a fabric covering staying dry, “Please Alphas.” You begged with your best pup eyes.

Wrecker and Hunter looked like they were on the verge of folding but Tech crossed his arms, “You heard Echo. Again Pip.”

Strict as always… you sighed locking into Echo’s movements. Fine…A fight it will be.

You waited for Echo to make the first move. He lunged forwards, giving you a small window to sneak under his arm, and land a punch to his side.

He hunched over, stunned you had juked him out. When he tried to retaliate you used your small size to out maneuver them. Over the weeks of the training with them, you learned that due to their size they moved slightly slower than you could. They were strong, but your small size allowed to quicker jabs.

When he was spinning around to pursue you, you used your foot to kick up one of the sparing sticks into your hand swinging the metal pipe at him. He dodged it before grabbing his own.

“Good. Use what’s around you.” Hunter coached from the side.

Echo brought down the pipe but you blocked it in time. The rain was making the concrete slippery so you decided to duck down and swing the pipe low catching Echo’s boot. You knocked the ARC trooper down onto his back and pointed the weapon at him. He surrendered giving you the victory.

“I’m going inside now.” You poked him with the stick before tossing it to the side. When you were just about to enter the back of the bar, Echo grabbed you from behind hauling you up into the air.

“Echo!” You screamed trying to wriggle out of his grasp.

“C’mon Tiny.” He growled holding steady despite your squirming.

With a growl, you brought your feet up in the air before thrusting them down changing the weight distribution and rolled the two of you into the nearby crates. You were able to get away from him but he grabbed your boot and tugged you back forcing you to slide across the ground through the dirty puddles.

You kicked at him freeing up your boot before rolling back to your feet.

“That was a dirty trick.” You looked down at all the muck on your shirt.

“Gotta make sure you’re ready.” He laughed wiping mud from his cheek.

“How’s she doing?” The trandoshan stepped outside observing from the doorway.

“She’s improving significantly.” Tech kept his eyes on you scrutinizing your every move.

“Good, because I’m going to need her to cover some shifts later.” Cid waved her claws in the air before going back inside to avoid the rain.

You groaned but put your fists back up prepared for Echo’s next attack. This was going to be a long day.

~~~

“Are you alright dear?” Tech watched you limp into the bedroom looking exhausted. You nodded before turning into the bathroom to turn on the shower. You smelled like alcohol and bar snacks. You just wanted to feel the hot water and scrub until you smelled like soap. You heard Tech outside the bathroom walking around, and you started to strip down before stepping into the steaming shower to wash the day off.

You did everything you wanted to, scrubbed, washed, exfoliated. You felt glorious getting out. Even the soreness in your muscles from training were feeling better. You grabbed your favorite body oils and began getting to work moisturizing yourself. It was such a relief.

When you stepped out you found Tech in his boxers reading something on his data pad. You tightened your robe and made your way over to him suddenly feeling a little warm looking at all of this taut defined muscles. He was so tall, just like Crosshair. They almost seemed like twins at times. You just wanted to sink your teeth into him he looked so good.

“Alpha?” You asked softly getting his attention.

He looked up from his screen noticing your loosening robe.

“Can you massage my back for me? Echo really did me in.” You said lowering the shoulder of the robe showing him your bare skin. You were dying for Tech’s skilled hands. You watched him fix too many things on the marauder not to think about them all the time. Often when you were alone, you would think about how good they’d feel on you… or in you.

“Take off your robe and lay down cyare.” He watched you untie the robe and drop it to the ground revealing your glistening oiled body. He swallowed thickly feeling himself start to harden at the site of you. You crawled up onto the bed laying down face first into the plush.

He got up to grab the lotion off the nightstand before squeezing some into his hands. He warmed it between his fingers before pressing them gently into your back before spreading it around making sure to get every spot… then he went to work. His fingers massaged every muscle and tendon making you absolutely turn to putty.

You were moaning and groaning when he worked down your legs making sure to thoroughly give you an entire body rub down. It felt so damn good. His skilled hands were one of your favorite things in the entire universe.

“Alpha… you’re so good at that.” You whined as he worked a particularly tight muscle in your shoulder.

“We might be working you too much.” He sighed feeling how tight your entire body is under his dexterous fingers.

“Echo was particularly rough today.” You sighed.

He chuckled, “Sometimes, I think we forget you’re not engineered like we are.”

You huffed, “You’re telling me.”

He continued to rub further down to your lower back where some new muscles were forming and you whined as his thumbs pushed and pulled the aching tendons.

“Cyare…” He leaned down so his lips were right by your ear, “I want to try something new tonight if you’re open.”

That peaked your interest.

You cracked open an eye to look up at him, “What did you have in mind?”

“Well with all these new credits I decided to head out to that sex shop on fifth street, I picked up a few things I think you might find interesting.”

You sat up on your elbows feeling your insides start to flutter with anticipation, “What things?” You bit your lip.

He pushed his glasses up and got up off the bed before reaching into his pack. He pulled out a red bag and walked back over to the bed.

“Go on.” He held the shopping bag out for you to investigate.

You stuck your hand inside feeling something soft. When you pulled it out you realized you were holding a roll of red satin ropes. You gasped and looked up at Tech. He nodded towards the bag, “There’s one more thing.”

You reached inside again grabbing something smooth. When you pulled it out you were confused at first, until Tech turned it on and it started to vibrate. It was a black and gold vibrator.

“Are you open to trying these cyare?” He looked at you and lightly skimmed your chin with his fingers, “You can also say no. I won’t take it personally.” He always gave you an out. You, Crosshair, and Tech had agreed to use the color system a while back, and Tech definitely stuck to it.

You chewed your lip and looked back up at him, “Green.” You answered.

He smiled before switching into dom alpha mode.

“On your knees.” He commanded and you shivered sitting back on your heels.

“Use your colors.” He reminded while grabbing the crimson ropes. You nodded and watched him double up the soft strands before bringing the center loop to your neck as he began to expertly tie the knots.

You watched him as he skillfully bound your arms behind your back careful not to touch your skin much, the angle was a little uncomfortable at first, but the more he tied the more secure you started to feel and the pain ebbed away and the heat start to enter your blood.

He then tied a couple more well placed knots squeezing your tits together making you squirm wanting more.

“Tech.” You sighed starting to feel restless wanting him to touch you.

“Color cyare.” He looked at you with lust blown eyes. He was very satisfied with his work.

“Green.” You said locking into the tent in his trousers.

“Can I record you mesh’la?” He ran his finger tips over the ropes still not touching you.

You nodded, “Yes Alpha.”

“Such a good girl.” He touched the side of his goggles and you noticed the little flashing red light turn on letting you know the camera was recording.

He knelt over you gently taking you into his arms before laying you down on your back. You whimpered at just the slightest touch of his warm hands. You desperately wanted more, but you knew you were going to have to work for it.

You were forced to lay slightly on your side to keep the weight off your hands, but it seemed to give Tech the desired effect. He was staring at you like a starving man. Your cunt clenched around nothing and you were sure he caught that on camera. It made you blush.

“Let me look at you.” He placed both hands on your knees rolling you onto your back totally at his mercy.

He spread your legs wide, revealing your dripping cunt. Wet all for him. You were mesmerized by the look in his eyes, that hunger. It was making you even more horny knowing you were doing this to him. It was longer a want, but a need to have his hands back on you.

He ran a selfish hand through your folds collecting some of the wetness but avoiding the place you wanted him the most. He was testing you, to see if you’d complain and get bratty with him.

You usually did under Crosshair’s influence, but you were too desperate for him to touch you to even go there. You just wanted to be a good girl for Tech tonight and submit to him without a fight.

You stared up at him with glossy eyes as he scanned every part of your tied body. He took special time showing off his handy work behind your back. He even rolled you over to record the details and get a good shot of your round ass.

“So beautiful Mesh’la.” He massaged the cheek that still held Hunter’s hand print from the night before. He seemed to take a bit of an interest in it, massaging it himself. You were breathing heavy now, hoping he’d take mercy on you and make you cum.

“Thank you alpha.” You groaned feeling his fingers trail dangerously close to the apex of your thighs.

“Look at you, not even bratting tonight.” You could hear the smirk in his voice, “Is this all it takes for you to behave?” He tugged at the rope around your wrist with a slender finger.

You whined in response.

Usually he’d demand you use your words but he was getting impatient even for himself. Between the massage earlier and now this. You allowing him to fulfill one of his favorite fantasies had him desperate to feel you cumming around him. As Crosshair would say, it’s one for “the spank bank.”

He ripped off his shirt throwing it to the side while pushing down his trousers leaving him bare. You strained to look at him, but the restraints forbade your movements. He chuckled and flipped you back over spreading you once again.

“Now, darling, you’re going to cum for me as many times as I want before I fuck you full, do you understand cyare?” He picked up the vibrator holding it up for you and the camera to see.

You nodded, “Yes, alpha.”

“Good. Let’s begin.” He switched on the toy and slowed it down to your clit making you hum.

Immediately you were squirming around trying to push back against the ropes but obviously that wasn’t going to work. It was tiresome, but the look on Tech’s face made you even wetter. He looked like an animal with that determined squint.

Tech’s cock twitched watching you writhe around under the little toy. He was so fixated on the way the ropes bit into your skin, he almost missed you cumming on the virbator.

“One.” He counted keeping the toy on you as you rode out your orgasm. But then that turned into overstimulation and you started to wriggle around again trying to escape the vibrations. It was starting to feel like too much and you clenched down on nothing to your dismay. You desperately wanted to be filled.

“Ahh!” You whimpered feeling yourself quickly be thrown into another orgasm. You couldn’t believe it. You moaned as the pleasure washed over you, tingling all of your nerves. You had to remember to breathe letting your body try to relax a little.

“Two. Good omega.” He encouraged keeping the toy to your cunt, “Think I can make you squirt with just this?” He rubbed the toy around eliciting more cries. You flinched when he’d trace over a certain spot making you cry out for him.

“Doing so good cyare, I want one more. Can you do that for me omega?” He looked down at you with a stern look. You looked up at him with bleary glossy eyes trying to squirm away from the toy.

“Y-yes.. sir. Yessir.” You threw your head back unsure if you’d be able to take another orgasm again so soon. You were desperate for a break, but you wanted to please your alpha and decided you’d do whatever he wanted.

You greedily watched him fist himself and the drops of precum dripping from his flushed tip. The way his cock flushed as he stoked himself made you salivate. You ground your hips down onto the toy lost in your thoughts about licking him up.

He watched you succumb to the lust as you chased your high with determination. He was purring knowing you were trying to please him, it made him very, very happy.

“Almost there omega.” He was watching your movements stutter before you tried arching back as you came hard.

Tech smiled proudly and withdrew the toy letting you release a massive sigh. You twitched as the aftershocks rolled through you and you squeezed your thighs together trying to calm yourself.

“My perfect girl.” He praised leaning down, “I just have to have a taste cyare.” He gave you a few licks making you cry out before sloppily making out with your cunt.

You moaned enjoying the warmth and softness of his wet mouth it was a soothing contrast to the vibrating toy. It was so delicious you ground down into him as best as you could from your angle. Just as quickly as he started, he pulled away to kneel over you. You watched him spit on his own cock rubbing the wetness around before sliding down to tease your entrance.

“Alpha!” You whined feeling the warmth radiating into you.

“Shh, omega.” He cooed before surging forwards watching himself disappear into you inch by inch. You cried out with joy finally feeling the glorious stretch you craved so much.

“Fuck!” You yelped as he started to thrust making you purr in delight.

Tech focused in on getting a rhythm going watching how you bounced up and down the mattress and the way your bound tits jiggled between the knots. It was going to make him cum. He had to close his eyes and focus on not coming so fast despite how absolutely utterly perfect you looked tied up like this. It was glorious. You were the most beautiful thing he’d ever laid eyes on.

“Fuck baby.” He pulled out suddenly deciding he couldn’t take it anymore. You whined feeling empty but he just picked you up setting you down on the floor next to the bed kneeling you on a discarded pillow before pressing his soaked cock to your lips.

You smiled and greedily took him into your mouth letting him grab the sides of your face before he started fucking your throat.

You felt the subspace creeping up on you as you settled into his pace being mindful to breathe while you relaxed your jaw and throat muscles. The grunts and whines Tech were letting out fed the needy omega in you. Alpha was happy. You were making alpha happy.

It made your entire body flutter.

The next thing you knew, Tech was pulling out and splattering his cum on your cheek and across the bridge of your nose while the two of you breathed heavily.

He looked down at you in slight shock before coming to his senses and shutting off the camera to kneel down in front of you.

“I’m so sorry cyare.” He grabbed his discarded shirt and wiped your face, “I shouldn’t have done that.” His eyes were filled with concern.

“Hmm?” You looked up at him with bleary eyes as he cleaned you, “It’s alright alpha.” You smiled softly trying to ease him.

He rubbed your jaw affectionately studying you. When he realized you were heavy into subspace, he sighed and picked you up placing you onto the bed knowing talking won’t help much.

“You did so good for me omega.” He praised while untying the knots carefully. He took extra care rubbing the areas with indent marks with his thumb soothingly. You preened under his ministrations feeling yourself start to free up from the confines of the rope.

You stretched before clinging to Tech. He removed the last of the rope before using his soiled t-shirt to clean between your legs and settle you into the covers. You kept mindlessly reaching for him, whining when he had to clean up the space a bit, removing any objects from the bed.

Tech curled around you surrounding you in warmth, “I’m so proud of you, cyare. You did so fucking good.” He pressed a kiss to your hair. You rolled over and looked at him before pressing into his mouth for a real kiss.

He melted into you instantly and you smiled. He kept kissing you like he couldn’t get enough of it.

“Thank you alpha.” You whispered snuggling into his chest.

“Now, get some rest cyare. You’ve earned it.” He petted your hair soothing you into much needed sleep.

Uhh yeah... so that just happened bahaha...

Anyways - I wonder what Crosshair is doing right about now...

The M*A*S*H Time Loop

This was pretty much just a stream of consciousness writing. I haven't looked at it much since I wrote it a couple of days ago but I wanted to post it anyway.

The sitcom M*A*S*H ran from 1972 to 1983 and captured households around America. The series follows M*A*S*H (Mobile Army Surgical Hospital) unit 4077 through the Korean War. Knowledgable readers might have noticed that the Korean War lasted 3 years from June 1950 to July 1953 while the M*A*S*H series ran for 11 years from September 1972 to February 1983. This significant timeline difference created an interesting effect on M*A*S*H that led to many fans discussing the ‘M*A*S*H time loop theory.’ As the name would imply, this fan theory posits that the events of M*A*S*H do not take place during the Korean War as we know it, but instead that the show follows the 4077th as they are stuck in an endless time loop and are unable to escape the war.

Clearly, the timeline of M*A*S*H is a bit difficult to line up with the events of the actual Korean War due to the 8-year difference. Characters such as BJ Hunnicutt and Radar O’Riley were on the sitcom for 8 years but canonically it is difficult to say if they were meant to have spent the same amount of time in Korea. While the episodes were aired weekly, it is impossible to say if most of the episodes were meant to take place a week apart. There are several episodes for which we know this is not the case, for example, the season 9 episode ‘A War for All Seasons’ begins with the 4077th ringing in the new year and follows several key events throughout 1951 and ends on New Year’s Day 1952. This seems to imply that the previous 8 seasons all take place in 1950. It could also imply that subsequent episodes all take place in 1952 or later, though many assume that some episodes show events that were not seen in ‘A War for All Seasons.’ On the opposite end of the spectrum, several episodes take place over a matter of hours. The season 8 episode ‘Life Time’ happens essentially in real time as Hawkeye has only 20 minutes to complete an arterial graft on a wounded soldier. These and other episodes make creating a sensible timeline for the M*A*S*H series an incredibly complicated process. Trapper John leaves in the first episode of season 4, does this mean that he was only in Korea for 6 months? As mentioned earlier, Radar and BJ were on M*A*S*H for the same number of years, but Radar leaves before ‘A War for All Seasons,’ does this mean that Radar was enlisted for a year or less while BJ was present for 2 years? Does it matter how long any of these characters were engaged in the Korean War? The time loop theory certainly says no.

The nature of all sitcom television lends itself very well to the concept of a time loop. The show almost always resets itself at the end of every episode and it begins the next episode in essentially the same place. The order of the episodes often doesn’t matter. Everything is always happening, nothing happens, it doesn’t matter. In M*A*S*H specifically, one of the core themes of the show is the cyclical nature of war. It intentionally pokes fun at the repetition, the monotony with lines like ‘the future’s been canceled by the war department’ and ‘Father, what do you think of purgatory so far?’ as well as with aspects such as the omnipresent PA voice. Hawkeye Pierce becomes the main focus of the show and the audience's lens in many ways and as such is one of the easiest introductions to this concept. Hawkeye complains about being stuck nearly every episode and often phrases it as though he is not just stuck as a surgeon in a war zone, but as if his whole life is stuck, as if his past and future are all contained within the war. Another character giving credence to this theory is Radar O’Riley. Radar earned his nickname due to his uncanny ability to sense incoming wounded before anyone else and to predict what his commanding officers will ask for before they open their mouths. While this is certainly a fun gag for the show, many think it shows that Radar is aware, consciously or unconsciously, of the time loop. Radar is aware of when the choppers will arrive and when Henry needs files because it has all happened before and will happen again. Many fans also point out that this could be the reason for Radar’s reaction to Henry being sent home. It is more than just realizing that he will be left in Korea while the man he has come to see as a father figure goes home to his family. On some level, Radar remembers that Henry will not make it home; he knows he can not stop it. Of course one of the biggest pieces of evidence against the idea of a time loop is the fact that it does end. Everyone goes home in the end, however, this does not entirely disprove the theory. Many pieces of media that focus on the concept of time loops end with our protagonists escaping. But they can not escape entirely. Though all of our characters leave Korea by the end of the series, those who are still alive have not left completely. They will be stuck remembering this time forever.

While the original intention of M*A*S*H certainly was not to tell a story about a group of army doctors, nurses, and enlisted men trapped in a time loop, that is in many ways the story we got. It is the best showcase of the cycle, the monotonous horror of war in modern media. The only changes come with tragedy, death, or abandonment. It is a time loop in the only ways that matter.

Development Update - February 2023

Hi there folks, Miyazaki here with Mythaura’s development update for the month of February!

Topics covered include:

Mythaura Age of Use Policy Update

About Page Expansion

Feature Spotlight: Elements

Beast Species Sizes

Ko-fi Q3 2023 Assets

Beast Creator Contest

More info available under the cut!

Mythaura Age of Use Policy Update

Starting today, March 1, 2023, Mythaura users must be 16 years of age in order to use the site and/or participate in the Discord community. This policy will be enforced starting immediately.

Article 8 of the EU's GDPR forbids collection of data from anyone under the age of 16. The GDPR sets a general age of consent at 16, which means a business cannot "legally process the data of a data subject 15 years-old or younger." In cases where you work with the data of children under 16, you can only process the data with permission from their parent or guardian.

About Us Page Expansion

We have updated our About Page with some more info about the game and features we have planned. There will be even more updates to this page as we continue to develop Mythaura’s core features.

Feature Spotlight: Elements

Mythaura is a world of magical creatures, each born with two elements. These cosmic elements are mysterious and powerful, imbuing the beasts of Mythaura with abilities that give them unique powers.

The first element is based on their species. For example, Griffins have the Air element, granting them incredible flight speed and agility. In addition to their species element, each beast is also given a second element that is cosmically-aligned with the time of day they were born. When both the species element and the personal element of a beast are the same, both the strengths and weaknesses of that element are compounded.

Elements are an important part of the day-to-day life of all Mythaurans. They are part of each beast’s identity, can determine what sorts of jobs they are well suited for, and can turn the tide in battle.

Read through Mythaura's elements more in-depth here!

We've also created Discord roles for each element; feel free to rep your element in the official Mythaura Discord server!

Beast Sizes

Each beast species in Mythaura has standard ranges for height and weight; a beast's size is determined at birth, influenced in part by genetics from its parents, in part by other non-hereditary factors. All beasts will always fall within this predetermined size range: as shown in the example below, the largest adult Basilisk will never be larger than the smallest adult Ryu.

All beasts will receive stat bonuses and penalties based on how they size up against the species's average size, and can use these stats to strategic advantage in battle.

Read more about the heights, weights, and elements assigned to each beast species here for more info!

EP 10. Fleeting moments

WORD COUNT. 1457

Link to overview

_ _ _ _ _

“Mr. Madl, Slagturn has been killed.”

Their only lead in regards to the shadow organisation had shrivelled up into a corpse within a night. No traces of poison or offensive magic was used in sealing the fate of this old mummy. Cuts and wounds were never found as if an energy beam had vacuumed the moisture and health of his body. Perhaps it was indeed Innocent Zero, rumoured to know forbidden spells, who had managed to bypass their security and end their captive confidant.

‘I guess, such an investigation will never start,’ Orter told himself, ignoring the stares and murmurs as he waited outside the bureau. He checked his wrist as he continued to lean against the wall as he remembered her words.

“There’s a flea market happening for the next 2 days,” she showed him a flyer, it would span until this Wednesday. “That’s no good,” he replied with a slight furrow in his brows; “I doubt a single police officer is enough to handle such a crowd.” Even if it happens near Marchette Street, it’s likely to become unregulated quickly. Typically, events like these are told a month in advance in order to allow for ample time to schedule and allocate officers to patrol. Additionally, Wednesday was the break day for the officers patrolling that area due to being the least busy day out of the week.

“Why don’t we go on patrol there for the last day?” She suggested. “The public hasn’t seen us together since the news, it’ll help settle certain things left from the initial shock.”

“Aren’t you busy that day though?”

“I’ll be done by 10.”

It was 10 minutes till 11.

He might as well find her instead of waiting for her, he told himself as he began strolling around the premise. The Blood Cane had 3 appointments today: the first was with Tsurara in regards to testing the effectiveness of a new technology due to her stable application of magic, the second was to the overlook the interviews for potential staff members with head of HR, Mary Shawn, and the last was to check up on the team leaders of their department. All of which should be done by now. She wasn’t the type to get lost either so it confused him.

“Bloody Sicko!”

Until he saw what seemed to be an increasingly violent situation between 3, including the woman herself, and disarmed them of their wands instantly without another breath wasted.

“What’s going on here?” Eyes coldly assessing the situation. “What department are you two from?” Their faces and black mops of hair were unfamiliar and they seemed to fear him compared to her by comparison.

“M-magical security…”

“New recruits, huh? I’d suggest heading back, they usually hold weekly meetings for newbies,” he stated, watching as the two stiffened at his words and with reluctant pleasantry scurried off with their wands. The blonde seemed unphased by what had happened as she blankly stared at them in the distance but he questioned. “Do you know them?”

“I think… they were my cousins,” uncertainty traced her voice as her fingers ghosted her temple. “Sorry for holding you up,” she scratched her head, changing topic. “Mary wanted me to choose at least 1 person from the interview to join our department so it took a while to decide.”

He stretched out his hand with a simple phrase, equally switching to their planned topic. “Let’s go.” To which she gladly accepted, loosely locking their fingers together as they began their patrol.

_ _ _

The flea market’s a bustling place with wooden stalls with fresh produce, and the scent of sweet and savoury bites wafting through the air as people of all kinds browse around. The Desert Cane walked in tandem with her, unused to the focus and swash of attention as his grip on her hand tightened. The clacking of the pots, and creaks of the carts replaced their unheard conversation. A glance at the younger man seemed to imply unease and irritation from the atmosphere, although he kept quiet and held on an unbothered expression as his gaze scanned and took in the area.

‘Just focus on doing the patrol.’ Pushing down his discomfort as he continued his pace with Rinka in tow. Words were drowned amidst the tunes of buskers, the sizzling of food, and the chatter of neverending people. An argument escalated between a stall owner and their employee regarding the quality of food, as the laughter of children with contempt shrilled amidst the marching band and puppet theatre antics scratched at his ears. Like a carousel he couldn’t get out of, he continued to increase the pace of his stride.

‘It’s just a patrol.’ It’s not like he hasn’t executed one before on this particular cobblestoned path. It’s by the book. Every police officer does it. Even if it’s a chore, he had agreed to it. ‘It’s just a patrol.’ Even Rinka had told him so. ‘It’s just a patrol.’

‘Why doesn’t it feel like a patrol?’

‘It’s just a patrol.’

‘It’s just--’

Unnaturally, the uneasiness nested within him thawed as his eyes read a the signboard of a crepe stall and he heard a suppressed hiss right beside him. He had forgotten about her who as much as he did, covered her discomfort. But with a warm smile as he loosened his grip on her hand. “I…”

“Let’s take a break, shall we?”

_ _ _

Orter took a deep sigh as he took a seat on a bench near a park further down from the market. She had used a temporary soothing spell to alleviate his clouded and muddled mind which was slowly returning as he watched a child play with simple light spells, pompously showcasing them to friends-alike. A light spell would be the first magic one learns before the manifestation of your own magic. They must be rather young to be amazed at such a sight, calmness washing over him.

The familiar bright crisp maple leaf robe entered the corner of his eye. She had returned with crepes in hand and an earmuff hung on her forearm. Why did she buy an earmuff? They don’t get hit with snow like the north, his heart thundered for no reason. ‘Don’t say it.’ She aimed her pointer to the side of her head, his eyes following them with baited focus. “You looked out of it.”

“Did I really?” he replied to her words, helping himself the chocolate syrup one while she took a seat.

“You didn’t reply to my words until I used Tranquilier.” He clenched his freed fist at those words. “Not even Sapaiserez?” What was he even doing? He scored decently during those practical tests barely 2 years ago. “The range of that spell is too cumbersome to adjust,” she muttered taking a bite into her own snack. To use a sedative spell meant for rogue dragons was indeed concerning for him but she seemed to think otherwise. “It has a guaranteed effect which is what I wanted.”

“But doesn’t it require a lot of energy?”

“You’re overthinking it.”

Yes. That’s all it was, he told himself. He was doing just that. There’s nothing wrong about it. There’s nothing wrong about her reaction or assumptions either.

"Take your time, the flea market continues until 8 o'clock," she added. There’s no reason to push him to open up. Especially, if you know half of the story. He was simply too tense for the civilians’ ease of mind, which corresponds to their duty and purpose for being here. If the cold and stringent Desert Cane looked distressed, it wouldn’t fare well for any of them. It was like telling the world they had screwed up in the worst way imaginable. "We can always head back."

A sense of envy pervades their thoughts as they watch how carefree the children and their parents were. Something neither of them have the luxury of enjoying, even though it was clearly a date: it didn't feel like one. An unstated heaviness took over the space between them as they seemed to enjoy each other’s presence. Soon enough, they would continue their patrol with Orter wearing the earmuffs due to the precarious position she held them in. Their fingers interlocked once more as the crowd swallowed them in a bustling embrace, wandering with no end in view as he continued to be led by her until she stopped.

As if staring back at a reflection of her future, she paled. Instead of her pale blonde locks, they were honey brown. The spitting image of the Blood Cane in a much more approachable form.

Under her breath with utter confusion and discomfort, she muttered: “Why is she here?”

_ _ _ _ _

Emotional baggage vibes honestly.

Made up some soothing spells!

Tranquilier - A rather high level magic spell that eats up a lot of magical power reserves. Singular targetting spell. 100% guaranteed effect. Most notably used to tranquilise rogue endangered dragons/magical creatures, and sedate Agito Tyrone and Tsurara Halestone on two separate occasions.

Sapaiserez - A 1km radius wide soothing spell indiscriminate of who its cast one excluding the caster. Uses less magical energy than Tranquilier. With enough magic fortification and strong will the spell's effect on a person by person basis will be reduced and can even be bypassed when in the area. It's possible to adjust the range of the spell but that requires more finesse. Most commonly used to curb mass hysteria in large crowded areas and even amongst shepherds.

The Last USAF F-15C/D Eagle Instructor Pilots Are Now In Training

The instructors will help train the final cadre of pilots set to fly the F-15C/D in the twilight of its Air Force career.

The U.S. Air Force is training what are very likely to be its last two F-15C/D instructor pilots at the Eagle’s ‘schoolhouse’ at Kingsley Field ("the land of no slack"), in Klamath Falls, Oregon. As we have reported in the past, Kingsley Field will replace its current F-15C/Ds with F-35A stealth fighters, overturning a previous plan that would have seen the base’s 173rd Fighter Wing assume responsibility for training pilots for the new F-15EX Eagle II.

In a recent story published by the 173rd Fighter Wing, it was confirmed that Capt. Andrew Marshall — plus one other unnamed aviator — will likely be the Air Force’s last F-15C/D instructor pilots as the service continues to retire these aircraft, the youngest of which is nearly 40 years old. The wing states that “nearly all” F-15C/Ds have now been divested by the active component.

The recent deactivation of squadrons at Kadena Air Base, Japan, which you can read about here, saw the final active-duty Air Force F-15C/Ds retired. A handful of test jets remain in use, with all other F-15C/Ds now assigned to the Air National Guard. This renders “the future need for instructor pilots minimal,” the Air Force says.

This is reflected in the Air Force’s Fiscal Year 2024 budget request which details plans to divest the entirety of the F-15C/D fleet by 2026.

The two pilots now wrapping up their training to become instructors at Klamath will be responsible, in part, for the B-Course syllabus that will prepare the final students to fly the F-15C/D — what the 173rd Fighter Wing dubs WGASF — for “world’s greatest air superiority fighter.”

Capt. Marshall says that he expects to qualify as an instructor pilot “within six months,” but adds that “there’s a lot of other factors — TDYs, weather,” that could affect this.

The seasoned F-15C/D pilot, whose resume already includes an assignment at Kadena, explains that there are 11 “thresholds” to cross before receiving the coveted instructor pilot rating.

The thresholds start with close-range dogfighting and expand to a “very broad scenario involving many aircraft performing defensive counter-air and everything in between, and a couple of ‘top-off’ events following that.”

“It’s much more refinement in how you go through the instructor upgrade; now you have to be able to not only understand and do it yourself but you have to convey that knowledge and execute it in a way that shows credibility as an instructor.”

Overall, the timeline makes it abundantly clear that the days of the F-15C/D with the regular Air Force are now numbered.

Ultimately, Marshall expects to stay on at Kingsley Field and convert to the F-35A, once the stealth fighter begins to arrive at the base, planned for 2026.

Last May, The War Zone reported on the Air Force’s decision to transfer all Eagle training, both for the F-15EX and F-15E Strike Eagle, to Seymour Johnson Air Force Base in North Carolina, starting from early 2026.

Aircrew will then complete specific F-15 model training (F-15E, F-15EX) once they reach their first operational unit, a concept that we have considered in the past.

Meanwhile, Kingsley Field will become home to an F-35A Formal Training Unit (FTU). This was a reversal of previous plans, in which the 173rd Fighter Wing would have become a training unit for the F-15EX.

This will help address the growing need for F-35A pilots, with the FTU at Kingsley Field supporting similar outfits at Luke Air Force Base in Arizona and Eglin Air Force Base in Florida.

These changes have also affected the service’s plans for the F-15EX, which remain somewhat unclear, although more details have emerged in recent months.

The Air Force has confirmed that the current F-15EX fleet will comprise 104 aircraft, which includes an additional 24 aircraft having been added as part of the Fiscal Year 2024 budget proposal. There remains some speculation as to where those 104 Eagle II aircraft will eventually be based, but we do know that Kingsley Field is out of the picture, while Kadena is likely in. This will ensure the Okinawa base continues its long association with the Eagle.

The Air Force has also announced plans to station F-15EX jets with California, Louisiana, and Oregon Air National Guard units, all of which currently fly the F-15C/D.

The forthcoming end of F-15C/D operations also reflects broader changes afoot in the Air Force as regards the composition of its future fighter fleets.

As well as rationalizing its legacy fighters, beginning with the F-15C/D, the Air Force is working toward introducing its sixth-generation stealth fighter plus the advanced Collaborative Combat Aircraft (CCA) drones that will work alongside it as part of the Next-Generation Air Dominance (NGAD) program. Current plans call for around 200 new NGAD combat jets and at least 1,000 CCAs.

The winding down of the F-15C/D training pipeline is a significant step in the process of divesting the original ‘not a pound for air-to-ground' Eagle. Once the curtain finally comes down on this legendary fighter, it will have truly earned the WGASF moniker.

This Month In History - July Part 1

This month there's so many pop culture landmark anniversaries to the point where I needed to do a part 1 and part 2. Here is part 1 of what I celebrate this month in history:

July 1, 1979: Sony releases the walkman

On this day in 1979 the first ever walkman was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2019. Happy 45 walkman!

July 2, 1999: Summer of Sam opens

In July 1999, one of Spike Lee's most underrated movies was released. The fictional narrative film looks back at the Summer of 1977 in NYC as a Bronx neighborhood becomes paranoid about the Son of Sam murders and begin suspecting one of their own as the killer. It also showed the way that you could be at a disco in NYC and then within minutes be at a punk club. I loved the cast and the way that Lee showed the paranoia growing within this group, not unlike that Twilight Zone with the neighbors getting suspicious. Happy 25th SOS!

July 3, 2004: Before Sunset opens

In July 2004, one of the greatest sequels ever made was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2019. Happy 20th BS!

July 5, 1989: Seinfeld premieres

In July 1989, the pilot episode of Seinfeld aired on NBC. Here is my piece I wrote in 2014. Happy 35th Seinfeld!

July 9, 1999: American Pie opens

In July 1999, one of the funniest movies of 1999 opened. Here is my piece I wrote in 2014. Happy 25th AP!

July 6, 1964: A Hard Day's Night opens in the U.K. and July 10, 1964: A Hard Day's Night soundtrack

In July 1964, the soundtrack to the aforementioned Beatles movie was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2019. Happy 60th AHDN album!

July 11, 2014: Boyhood opens

In July 2014, Richard Linklater's epic 12 years in the making was released. The MA premiere took place at the 2014 IFFBoston, where my doc Life on the V: The Story of V66 had its World Premiere. To know my film was under the same umbrella as Linklater was truly an honor and when I saw it I was blown away. He had the creativity, patience and vision to show a boy ACTUALLY growing up over the course of 12 years. I named it my #1 Movie of 2014 and also my #1 Movie of the 2010s decade. This is also a movie with a great deal of truths that I find myself referencing frequently. Happy 10 Boyhood!

July 14, 1969: Easy Rider opens

In July 1969, one of the great 1960s movies was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2019. Happy 55th ER!

July 14, 1999: The Blair Witch Project opens

In July 1999, the high standard of all found footage movies was released. Here is my piece I wrote in 2014. Happy 25th TBWP!

Stay tuned for Part 2 of This Month in History for July.

Wabi - sabi Epilogue

(n.) [a concept] the japanese art of finding beauty within imperfection

Pairing: Kim Taehyung (BTS) x Fem!Hybrid!Reader; Genre: Hybrid AU, Romance, Fluff; Wordcount: 2.198; Rating: sfw, NC-17; Warnings: Blind!Reader, brief hints of past situations, Bangtan boys being Bangtan boys, short moment of tension with JK, Yoongi being a terrible liar (the observations are based on actual run bts episodes), Tae being nervous, one kiss (like on the lips); Based on the blind hybrid prompt of @hybridfanfiction

Summary: Being a failure in the eyes of science you hadn’t much hope for being permanently adopted as a blind hybrid. Instead you focused on music, the only thing that brought you joy. Until a stranger with the deepest and most beautiful voice you ever had heard wanted to adopt you. Would he really keep you for more than three days?

Chapter: [1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] [12] [13] [14] [15] [16] [17] [18] [19] [20] [21] [Epilogue]

You turned around with a discontent groan, wriggling around between your bed sheets. Something was amiss but your drowsy mind couldn’t place a finger on it just yet. A soft groan bubbled up from your throat and you turned again, shivering from the cool air inside the room.

At that moment you shot up, sitting straight on the mattress and patting around the soft surface until you could confirm you were alone on your bed. Your ears swivelled around, hoping to hear Taehyung somewhere within the apartment but except for Yeontan’s light snoring in the living room it stayed quiet.

You frowned and wrecked your mind, hoping for a memory where Taehyung told you he wouldn’t be at home today, but you came up empty.

It’s been several months since the concert and in all that time Taehyung nearly had gone to square one refusing to leave your side. It took a lot of convincing that he actually left for work again or didn’t lounge at Yoongi’s studio while you worked. He only ever left after you would reciprocate his ‘I love you’, before going.

So not having Taehyung around, felt off. You got out of your bed and changed into something comfortable, silently walking over to the shared apartment afterwards.

Even before you opened the door you already heard several members inside. “Morning”, you called into the apartment, wanting to announce yourself before they even saw you. Ever since you walked in on them planning a surprise party for you and basically ruining the surprise because you heard everything they said, you started calling out as soon as you came around.

“Y/N! It’s good to see you”, Jin greeted you with a stifled laugh. “Do you want something to eat?”

“I actually wanted to ask if any of you have heard from Tae”, you admitted and sat down on one couch after making sure nobody sat there already. “He isn’t home.”

Your ears immediately picked up nervous shuffling and accelerated heartbeats.

“No idea where he is, have you checked whether he left a voice message? Maybe he was idiotic enough and left a written note for you.” Yoongi answered after clearing his throat. He immediately continued to muse about the possibilities Taehyung could have used to notify you about his absence.

“Yoongi”, you said softly, laughing quietly when he finally stopped talking. “You’re a terrible liar.”

“How would you know I’m lying?”

This time you laughed a little louder and shook your head. “Firstly I hear all your heartbeats. Dead give away, but”, you paused and turned towards Yoongi, “your heartbeat seems fine. The only thing giving you away is the fact you’re talking.”

Yoongi scoffed and sat up, leaning forward as he eyed you in suspicion. “What about my talking?”

“You start talking a lot when you want to cover something up. I realised it when we all played the liar game together a few weeks ago.”

Jimin and Hoseok, who had stayed quiet so far, started laughing almost maniacally, clapping loudly and from the sound of it even falling over. They gasped for air when Jungkook entered the room, barely reducing themselves to giggles.

“Taehyung is out to check the last preparations for something special”, Jungkook told you, sitting down next to you. Though instead of relaxing into the cushions like he used to, he sat somewhat tense beside you.

“Thanks for telling me”, you told him with a grateful smile. You didn’t comment on his awkward position, knowing full well Jungkook tried his very best to be normal around you.

The day after the concert you had talked with him, wanting to make sure he knew you wouldn’t blame him for what happened. The very same day Jungkook had confessed to you. For a split second you had been stunned and incredibly surprised by the confession until you remembered Taehyung’s words the night prior, the pieces now coming together.

“You don’t love me back”, Jungkook had whispered, laughing softly as he tried to hide his pain. You apologised, unsure how else to react, but Jungkook brushed it off, asking whether the both of you could still be friends.

“I’d like that.” You had said back then and you appreciated his effort ever since.

“Were you even allowed to tell her that?” Jimin chided, now that he finally caught his breath. “We were supposed to let her think she’s going to her usual therapy appointment.”

You heard a loud slap followed by a muffled curse and apology. You stifled a laugh, knowing full well Jimin reprimanded himself just now for saying too much. Almost immediately Jin and Hoseok started scolding Jimin, nearly whining about him ruining the surprise.

Jungkook chuckled lowly and finally relaxed next to you, sinking further into the cushion of the couch. “It’s better you stop listening to them before they reveal even more”, he whispered to you.

The scolding stopped when Yoongi’s phone started ringing. All the attention snapped to him. “Yeah?” He hummed a few times and started motioning towards the others.

Your ears picked up Namjoon’s distressed voice and even a faint call from Taehyung. It took everything within your willpower not to listen to the conversation. Instead you mumbled about getting some breakfast.

Jin and Jimin immediately came with you, keeping you company while the others followed Yoongi. Once they left the apartment you didn’t hear of them for the rest of the day.

The day went by at a slow pace even though Jin and Jimin tried everything to distract you as much as possible. At one point in the late afternoon you decided to simply listen to some music while cuddling with Yeontan, dozing off on the sofa after a while.

Therefore you were startled awake when Jimin burst into the apartment, calling for you in a sing-song voice. “Darling, you need to get dressed!”

“I am dressed”, you mumbled and wiggled yourself further into the blankets.

Jimin sighed deeply and you just knew he looked at you in disappointment. Another sigh left his lips when you refused to move at all, close to dozing off again. “Taehyung is waiting for you and you can’t meet him like that!”

You sat up, wriggling yourself out of the blankets and turning towards Jimin. “Tae is waiting? Where?”

Jimin held your hand and helped you from the couch, chuckling softly at your eager demeanour. “You’ll know once you get there but right now the two of us are going to do something about your style.”

The impatience was almost unbearable. You basically bounced on the stool while Jimin tried doing your hair, scolding you every now and then for moving too much.

“You guys ready?” Jungkook appeared at the door, leaning against the frame while Jimin scolded you yet again from moving.

“Depends”, Jimin grumbled and stepped away from you, circling your form for a moment. “Y/N please stand up.” He brushed over the fabric of your dress and stepped back yet again. “Are you feeling comfortable like this?”

Your fingers trailed over the fabric as well and you gently swayed with your hips, feeling how the dress followed your movements. “I feel special”, you admitted, ears trained on the two men to pick up their reactions.

“You are special”, Jungkook answered, ignoring the pointed look he got from Jimin. “I’m your driver, if that’s okay with you. I’m actually here to get you to Taehyung.”

“I’m going to meet Tae now?” A bright smile spread over your lips and you quickly nodded your head, ignoring Jimin’s whining about your hair getting all loose again.

The ride to Taehyung went by in a blur. You barely picked up anything from your surroundings. It even took you a few steps to realise Namjoon had greeted you at the destination after you got out of Jungkook’s car.

Namjoon had offered you his arm, which you accepted thankfully. He led you along some paths. The scents filling the air around you, reminded you of the gardens you had visited with Taehyung. The first date if you wanted to call it like that. It felt like a lifetime ago that happened.

“I’ll take it from here”, the deep timbre of Taehyung broke the silence. He gently grabbed your hand and pulled you into a hug. “You look stunning, little one.”

Your hands wandered along his chest and up to his face, cupping his cheeks. You let your fingertips brush over some features of his face, memorising his expression. “I’m sure you look even better.”

Taehyung kissed the inside of your wrist. “I’m looking like I fell straight out of bed compared to you. Jimin really outdid himself with your style. Guess I have to thank him tomorrow.”

You giggled softly. “He scolded me a lot for not staying still.”

“How come you didn’t?” Taehyung asked, a lilt of amusement in his voice. He continued leading you along the paths, nodding one last time to his hyungs and Jungkook before he moved his attention solely on you.

“I was excited to be with you again.”

Taehyung chuckled lowly. “Did you miss me that much during the day, little one?” Another chuckle left his lips when he saw you nod and pout. “I’m sorry about that but I had to prepare this for you.”

“For me?”

Taehyung simply hummed and led you up a few steps on some sort of wooden platform. Soft music started playing from above and your ears turned around, trying to locate the speakers.

“I want you to focus on your surroundings, little one. Can you do that for me?”

You nodded and took a deep breath in. Once again the scents of dozens of flowers filled your nose, though you also smelled Taehyung’s cologne as well as his natural scent, which you loved so much. You heard birds chirp in the distance despite the soft melody in the air around. You also felt Taehyung’s warm hands holding yours and his heart beating like crazy within his body.

“You’re nervous”, you mumbled and tilted your head, indicating you wanted to know why.

“I had hoped you’d miss that part”, Taehyung laughed softly. “Maybe a little dance might calm my nerves. Would you give me the honour?”

“I don’t know how to dance”, you told him and if it weren’t for him holding your hands you would have been fidgeting with your fingers.

“You don’t need to know”, Taehyung murmured into your ear, “just follow my lead.” He placed your left hand on his shoulder and held your right in his own hand, placing his free hand on your hip and pulled you closer to him.

At first Taehyung mumbled where you had to step while he guided you with his body, following the soft rhythm of the music. “You’re a fast learner”, he told you and kissed your forehead, swaying with you along the wooden platform.

“You’re a good leader”, you answered him and leaned your head against his collarbone. “Did it help to calm your nervousness though?”

Taehyung squeezed you momentarily. “Not really but that’s alright, little one. I just want this moment to be perfect.”

“You’re with me”, you said softly, “I think it’s perfect like this.” You felt Taehyung laugh silently and straightened again, waiting for him to speak.

“The last time I said this to you I didn’t have planned to actually do it. We actually haven’t even spoken about it ever since. I don’t even know whether you remember the moment in the bathtub all these months ago.”

“I do.”

Taehyung hummed, acknowledging your whispered answer. “Then I don’t know whether anything has changed for you in all this time. I mean, a lot has changed and you’re becoming more and more independent. But I wanted to tell you again and this time I wanted to do it right.”

You felt the butterflies in your stomach coming alive again, swirling around and leaving you with a tingling that spread through your whole nervous system.

“I fell in love with you, little one”, Taehyung said, his tone stable and certain of what he just said. “If you feel the same and if you’re comfortable with it I’d like to be yours.”

“Mine? As in my love?”

“Your love, your boyfriend, your one and only, your darling or sweetheart. Whatever term you like the most. Let me be that for you.”

You moved your hand from his shoulder to the back of his neck. “Ever since you spoke to me in that shelter you were the one and only for me. I love you too, Tae.”

Taehyung wrapped his arms around your middle and pulled you against his body, still swaying from side to side along with the music.

When you placed your now free hand on his cheek, you felt the bright boxy grin underneath your fingertips, making you smile just as wide.

Taehyung leaned down and kissed you. At first his lips barely ghosted over your own but once you pushed against him, he deepened the kiss. You two only broke the connection to inhale some much needed air, panting breathlessly as your foreheads still touched each other.

“Thank you for accepting me.”
