I was wondering if you are willing to write a Tango x Etho x gn!reader (or just Tango x gn!reader if you don't want to write poly atm)?
Pairing: Tango x GN! Professor! Reader x Etho (kinda Pearl & Etho [Platonic] too ngl)
Includes: (small i think, but be aware they are there) SPOILERS FOR THE LATEST CHAPTER (16) OF DOUBLE-HEARTED, mentions of a secret relationship but also not really? (they haven’t told anyone, but its not technically a secret), speculated cheating (doesn’t happen), three uses of Y/N
Words: 2.0k
A/N: I always want to write poly 😈 I wanted to write something for DDVAU anyway to celebrate the new Double-Hearted chapter that came out ((if you haven’t [you probably have, but on the off-chance that you haven’t] go check it out on Webtoon, or here on Tumblr! It’s a great comic about the DDVAU {Desert-Duo Vigilante AU} written by @//kitsuneisi and @//xmaruu11))
((p.s. if you don't like it/it's not what you had in mind, lmk and I'll write a new one!))
Tumblr media
When Etho offered to set Pearl up with an interview with his boyfriend, this was not what she had in mind.
She did not expect to be walking into the university he worked at, glancing around awkwardly as she tried to find her way around. As much as she felt like she was back in college herself, she couldn’t find it in her to care very much. Insider information with someone who was in the school during the attack?! It couldn’t be much better for a reporter like her(who was also very interested in discovering the various mysteries Hot Guy has to hide from the general public).
Pearl brushed her hair back as she glanced at the paper in her hand, telling her exactly where she was meant to meet Tango. She looked at the building in front of her, confirming that it was the correct building and grinned excitedly, hurrying into the room. She quickly found the office she was looking for and peered into the window. Her brows furrowed when she saw two people talking softly in the room.
Tango, who was obvious because of his fiery hair, sat in his office chair, facing his desk. On his desk sat another professor. They were talking, only just loud enough for her to hear their words. 
“C’mon, Etho asked me to do the interview for her.” Tango was saying. He reached over and grabbed the other professor’s hand. “I’m fine.”
The other sighed, “Tango, I don’t want you to relive that moment so soon after it happened. It had to have been traumatic!”
“I’m fine.” He insisted with a grin. “I promise, if I wasn’t ready to talk about it, I wouldn’t have the interview. I don’t mind, really. It wasn’t that bad, really.”
The professor did not seem impressed. They leaned their head back on their shoulders, “You were dragged into a school that was taken over by some kind of spore creature and were attacked, I think-”
“Well, I wasn’t really attacked per se-” He was quickly silenced by a glare. He chuckled awkwardly, pulling their hands towards him for a moment, “Sweetheart,” Pearl’s eyes widened as she heard the pet name. Her brows furrowed. Sweetheart? Isn’t Tango, Etho’s boyfriend? Who is this other person? “It’s fine. I promise. If I wasn’t up for it, I wouldn’t do it. Come on, you have class soon and Pearl should be here soon. I’ll be fine.”
Pearl watched closely as they huffed and nodded. “Fine. Tell me if something happens, promise?” They leaned in, pressing a kiss against his forehead. Pearl gasped, moving away from the window in shock. Her eyes were wide. After a few seconds, she could hear footsteps coming closer to the door. She took a quick deep breath and walked down the corridor for a moment before turning around right as the door opened. She plastered a smile on her face (after all, reporters have to be professional at their first official interview) and walked towards the door again.
“I’ll see you after school, who’s place are we meeting at, again?” Tango asked as he leaned against the door.
The other professor hummed before shrugging, “I guess yours. If that works for you?” He nodded. His eyes glanced to the side and he grinned as he noticed Pearl. The professor’s eyes followed his and they smiled. “Oh, hi. You must be Pearl, yeah? I’m Y/N.”
She nodded, holding back her true emotions. So Tango is cheating on Etho?! That doesn’t sound like the Tango he talks about, but I guess even the ‘best’ people can be shallow. “Yeah, that’s me.” Her voice was professional, offering a miniscule smile.
Tango nodded, “Perfect, you’re right on time. I’m Tango.” He nodded towards his office. “We have about an hour and a half until my next class, so we have plenty of time.” She gave him a smile and a nod, no longer as excited about this interview (though… she was still excited, admittedly).
Tumblr media
After Pearl and Tango finished their interview, she was thankful for the insider information she now had. In fact, she almost forgot about the situation before the interview until she got a text from Etho as she was leaving the school.
Etho
how was the interview?
Pearl
uhhh it was good
I do have some bad news for you tho
Etho
yeah?
what’s up?
Pearl
I’d rather tell you in person, are you free today???
Etho
uh sure yeah, when do you wanna meet up
Pearl quickly gave him a place to meet and a time. She met him there with time to spare. She looked over her notes from the interview and the recorded copy she had. Her mind was fighting over being a good reporter and remaining completely unopinionated, and being a good friend and being very upset that her friend was cheated on. She sighed, covering her face with her hands. It’s not like the cheating would be included in the interview, she reasoned. But, would it be okay to publish your best friend’s cheating boyfriend’s interview? What are the morals of this type of situation? Are there any?
A hand came in contact with her shoulder and she jumped, eyes darting to the side as her hands fell from her face. Her eyes narrowed, “Oh, haha.” She deadpanned as Etho laughed softly. He sat across from her and raised an eyebrow.
“You seemed distracted for someone who really wanted to tell me something.” He mused. 
She hesitated, “Well, I was going over a kind-of moral dilemma.”
His head tilted slightly as he peered at her over the edge of his mask, “What morals? You went in for an interview and you came out with questions about morals?” He chuckled, “What did that man say to you?”
“He’s cheating on you?”
Etho paused, brows furrowing, “What?”
Pearl let out a deep breath that she didn’t realize she was holding. The words started flooding out, “I walked into the office, expecting him to be alone. But I stopped outside the window of his door and looked in and I saw this person sitting on his desk. You know how nosy I am, so I was listening! He called them ‘sweetheart’?? And they kissed his forehead! They were clearly close and clearly dating or something! Then- then! They decided on staying over at Tango’s house. Tonight!”
Etho was quiet for a moment, staring at her before he laughed. It was a louder laugh than she usually heard from him. “Why are you laughing? Are you crazy? He’s seeing someone else!”
“Come with me.” Is all he replied. He stood up, gesturing for her to follow him. Confused beyond belief (and questioning his own mental status), she followed him.
“Where are we going? Are you not going to say anything?”
“You’ll see. Be patient, Pearl.” He mused. Pearl sighed, realizing she wasn’t getting anything out of him anytime soon. The walk wasn’t very long. They arrived at an apartment complex. He pulled out his phone, sending a quick text. As he did, he nodded to the call box. “Press Apartment 304.” Pearl hesitated. She knew this was not Etho’s apartment. In fact, she didn’t think she knew anyone in this part of the city at all. When he noticed she didn’t move, he chuckled again, reaching over and hitting the button. Within a few moments, the buzzer made a different noise and the door unlocked. “C’mon.”
“Etho, where are we going?”
He glanced back at her as they climbed the stairs, “You haven’t put it together? And I thought you were a reporter.” He tsked. “We’re going to Tango’s place.”
Her eyes widened, “We’re confronting them?!”
“You could say that.”
Her heart beat with anxiety as the two climbed the final set of stairs. They approached the door with the number 304 on it. She kept glancing over at Etho. He didn’t seem nervous at all. She paused. He glanced back.
“Problem?”
“Yeah, what are you planning? What are you up to?” She accused, pointing at him. “You’re being awfully calm about this whole situation.”
He laughed, leaning over and knocking on the door. She blinked as the door opened, revealing Tango. “Hey, babe.” He said, leaning over with a grin, his eyes darted to the right and he laughed, “Hey, Pearl. Guess we got some explaining to do, yeah?”
Her brows furrowed, glancing between the two. She went to speak when a voice interrupted. “Etho! You’re here! Finally.” Her eyes blinked in confusion as the professor from the school came over, leaning over and wrapping Etho in a hug. He laughed as he hugged them awkwardly. “We’ve been waiting for hourssss.” 
“It’s been twenty minutes.” He said, rolling his eyes and laughing. He gently pulled them back and gestured to the right where Pearl stood. “Sweetheart, this is Pearl. You remember her from earlier, right?”
They pulled back from Etho and glanced over, grinning, “Yeah! Of course! You look so pretty by the way, I totally forgot to mention it because I was running late.”
Pearl couldn’t wrap her head around what was happening. Her eyes darted from Tango to Y/N to Etho. “Okay, what is happening right now?”
Etho chuckled as his partner glanced at him, “I dunno, what is happening, Etho?” They questioned with a small, confused smile.
“Well, to answer both of your questions at the same time. I was invited to dinner with Pearl here because she had something important to tell me.” He nodded, almost gravely before laughing again. “She told me our dear Tango here was cheating on me.”
Tango fully burst out laughing, using the side of the door to support his weight as he practically heaved laughter. Their partner looked taken aback for a moment before they gasped, “Oh! Because of this morning! Oh, I’m so sorry!” They laughed. “No, no, no. We’re all dating. We’re in a poly relationship!” They clarified.
Pearl’s face relaxed slightly as she let out a breath, “Ohhh.” She murmured. “That’s why he wasn’t freaking out when I told him.”
“I thought you knew.” Etho said with a shrug. “Then you came telling me that and I was just so shocked. I mean, you’ve walked up on me and them on a date before.”
Pearl thought about before shaking her head, “I don’t think so, only you and Tango.”
His brows furrowed, “I’m pretty sure- Oh, right! They were in the changing room when you ran into us.” He explained with another chuckle. Pearl glanced over as said partner wrapped an arm around Tango’s waist. His grin seemed to brighten as he glanced over at them before refocusing. “I really did think you knew, though.”
“You never talk about them? Only ever Tango!”
“I rarely talk about Tango to begin with, Pearl. We’ve been dating for a year and a half and you learned I was dating him, what, a few months ago?” He scoffed, “I just don’t like talking all that much about my private life.”
Pearl nodded slowly, her brain piecing together the missing parts of the puzzle. “So, you three are all in a relationship together?” The trio nodded in unison. 
“I would have said something when we met if I had known you didn’t know.” Y/N said, offering an awkward smile. “I would hate for you to think Tango would even be capable of thinking of cheating. Especially since you were interviewing him for something so serious.”
Tango groaned playfully, “Sweetheart, I’m tellin’ you! It was fine! Not a big deal.” They narrowed their eyes at him and he paused as they pulled out of his grip.
“I need to check the food, make sure it’s not overcooking!” They announced as they walked away. Tango had no hesitation to follow, talking about how it ‘wasn’t a big deal’ as they walked. 
Etho glanced over at Pearl, “So?”
She hummed slowly, “So what?”
“What do you think? Y’know about me being poly?”
Her eyes moved to meet his and she looked slightly annoyed, “You don’t think I would think anything different than what I already do, do you? Cause this isn’t a change at all. All it tells me is that you have more people who care about you.” While he didn’t make a noise, she could tell his shoulders relaxed slightly. “Etho, I care about you. This wouldn’t really change much of anything. Promise. I’ll see you tomorrow. Go spend time with your… partners?”
He chuckled softly, nodding, “Yeah, yeah, you’re right. I’ll see ya.”

Any fic of the GOAT father? Where scar and grian tried messing with gn!reader (if you want to, docm adopted reader for reasons) and doc gets mad.
Pairing: Docm77 x GN! Child! Adopted! Reader
Includes: pranks, protectiveness, can be read as bullying?, doc calls reader “mein kind” (My Child in German according to google translate!), use of Y/N, mentions of death of parents (does not go into detail), technically an angsty ending??, Grian and Scar are the bad guys in this one chat be warned
Words: 1.3k
A/N: WHHHOOOO BOY THIS IS A ROUGH ONE- I wasn’t going to make this a child reader, but then I had an idea, so it's now a child reader, hope that’s okay! I hope you enjoy it!
Tumblr media
The way your eyes instantly watered made their devious grins instantly fall into the pits of their stomach. Grian and Scar looked at each other in pure horror. They had never meant to make you cry! It was supposed to be a harmless prank. One that simply made everyone laugh, maybe get a little annoyed, but never genuinely upset! No prank they did was ever meant to make anyone upset (especially not you). 
“Y/N! Y/N, what’s wrong? What did we do?!” Grian yelped, running over and grasping your hand in his. He looked at you like a deer stuck in headlights. “Did we hurt you? What happened?”
Your eyes never left the scene in front of you. The despair and anger in your chest bubbled as you watched your beloved stuffed animal burn right in front of your eyes. It wasn’t on purpose of course. The two didn’t even realize it had happened. If you were a bit older, able to think a bit more realistically, you would have known that it was an accident. But, even if it was an accident. Your favorite stuffed animal- the only reminder you had of your biological parents- was gone. Forever. It was impossible to get another one of its kind. 
The prank in itself was a fairly simple one. It was a respawn trap. And it wasn’t even pulled on you. Your dad’s bed was trapped, lava placed beneath the bed without a way out, so the occupant would immediately fall into the lava for an infinite amount of time. The pair of pranksters hadn’t realized that you had slept with your father last night after having a nightmare. They hadn’t noticed that your plushie was still on the bed. 
“Hey, hey, hey, look at me. Doc’ll be fine! He’ll be okay. It’s just a little prank!” Scar was saying quickly. The two were horrified that they had made you cry and they didn’t even know why. It was practically a death sentence for anyone to hurt you in any way. Grian glanced around, looking for the reason for your tears. He was stumped, though. He couldn’t figure it out. The plushie had already rolled off the bed and into the lava, so how would he know?
The scream that left your lips was visceral. It hadn’t sounded like the screams a child would normally let out when they were in need of attention, or tired, or hungry, or any other reason a child would cry. This cry was painful. The sound seemingly shook Grian and Scar. They looked so ashamed and they still had no idea what had happened.
“What’s wrong, Y/N? What happened?” The two kept repeating. When Scar reached over to touch your arm, you recoiled, falling backwards onto the ground. Your eyes burned as your tears streamed down your face. Scar glanced at Grian before shaking his head and typing into his communicator. “Okay, uh, uppsie-daisy, let’s go find your dad, okay? How does that sound?”
You didn’t respond. Instead, feeling hopeless for anything else, Scar scooped you up and brought you outside. Grian followed behind, stressing. His feathers were sticking out as he ran his hand through his hair, thinking about what they did wrong. 
It didn’t take long for the trio to find Doc. After being informed of your current situation, he met you halfway. His eyes were slightly wide with panic as he took you from Scar, hugging you tightly.
“Ah, mein kind, what’s wrong? Talk to me.” He urged, pulling you back and leaning down. His large hands brushed at your cheeks as you cried, wiping away tears as new ones replaced them. He glanced up at the two men who brought you, “What happened? What did you do, Grian?”
Grian let out an indignant noise, “Why do you blame me?! We don’t know! We were pranking your bed and- and they just started crying!” 
“Pranking my- What?!” He huffed, ignoring them for a moment as he focused on his child. “Did they hurt you, mein kind? Are you injured?” Struggling to breathe properly, you shook your head. “Okay, alright. What did they do?”
Your hands shook as you grasped onto your dad’s lab coat. While in the beginning of the adoption, you were terrified of his green skin and the parts of him that were more cyborg, but at this point, nothing about your dad scared you. He was your sense of comfort, especially right now since you didn’t have your stuffie anymore. 
The thought made another onslaught of tears fall from your eyes. Doc was looking between the two above you with a murderous gaze. The unspoken words of if you did anything to them, I will make your life hell echoed in Scar and Grian’s head. His metal arm wrapped around your waist as his creeper arm brushed against the back of your head, shushing you quietly as he petted you softly.
“Cookie.” You murmured into his neck as you cried. Your words were thick with sorrow.
Doc’s brows furrowed for a moment, wondering what you meant until a wave of realization hit him. He glanced at Scar and Grian, “Can one of you go get their stuffed… plushie? It helps them calm-” The wail that left your lips didn’t escape his attention. He paused, glancing at you. “Do you not want Cookie-?” At the second mention of the plush, you looked at him with despairing eyes. You nodded slowly, but your lip shook.
“Oh, uh, we can go get it! Where is it?” Scar said immediately, looking thrilled to have a reason to step away from the crying child. 
“It should be in my bed from last night.”
At the mention of his bed, Grian’s face paled. His eyes widened and he nudged Scar roughly, his hand almost shaking. “Was- Was there a stuffie on the bed when we set up the thing?” He muttered to Scar.
Scar’s face also paled as he followed Grian’s line of thinking. He shook his head, “I- I don’t- I don’t remember seeing one-”
Doc’s gaze hardened, “What do you mean you don’t remember seeing one? It was sitting on the bed!”
“Burned.” You said, through another wail. Grian and Scar froze, horror in their expression.
Doc’s expression turned downright terrifying. He was silent, staring at the two goons with a seemingly malicious intent. As his anger spiked, he could feel a fire gathering in his chest- something that happened because he was a creeper hybrid.
“What exactly did you two do to my bed?” He asked quietly. Terrifyingly.
Scar looked petrified with guilt and fear as Grian responded, “We… set up lava… underneath your bed.”
A shaky breath left your lips as you recalled what happened, burying into your dad some more, as close as you could. You needed his comfort right now. And as much as he wanted to do something, anything to make the two responsible for your despair feel pure pain, he knew they didn’t mean to. They were his friends. It was a mistake. One that was utterly stupid and that infuriated him greatly, but a mistake nonetheless. 
It was quiet save for your sobs until Doc spoke again, “That plushie of theirs was the last thing they had of their parents.” If the pair of pranksters hadn’t looked guilty before, they looked downright shamed now. They felt awful. The stupid prank they pulled was absolutely nothing now, and the thought that they had even imagined it would be funny felt sickening right now. “You two should go. I’ll… deal with you later.”
The two hesitated before turning and walking off. Doc hugged you tightly, whispering soft nothings from his native tongue in your ear, trying to calm you down at least a little. He knew things would probably be shaky for a while. It was hard to get over such an event, watching the only thing you had left of your parents be burned in front of your eyes. It had to hurt. Doc hugged you tighter, trying to control his anger. He wouldn't want to explode, of course. Not after everything that had already happened.

Saw some of your amazing fics and was wondering if you could do xisuma or (evil X his alter ego) where people (not the hermits) misgenders them (transmasc!reader)
Pairing: XisumaVoid x Trans! Masc! Reader
Includes: misgendering, more comfort than angst, but it does have angst, transphobia/bullying, mayhaps ooc Xisuma, dysphoria, mentions of a feminine body
Words:  1.3k
A/N: ooh do I know this feeling lol; I’m not extremely familiar with X, so let's hope this isn’t ooc, I’ve only recently started watching him
Tumblr media
There was something… off about you. Xisuma could tell. You weren't as… chipper as you typically were. Your smile was wobbly and your fingers wouldn’t stop moving (though, you usually fidgeted nervously, it seemed more extreme recently). It wasn’t extremely noticeable, but it was enough. Already, two Hermits had come up to Xisuma, telling him about your strange demeanor. As your boyfriend, X wanted to do… something, but what? He didn’t know how to ask what was wrong. Were you on those terms in your relationship yet? It had only been a few months.
The opportunity arose when you appeared at his base one day, sitting on top of one of his chests and watching him work. He didn’t notice you at first, as you were quiet. When he did see you, he jumped, not expecting you to be there. “Oh Dear Lord!” He exclaimed, holding his chest, taking a deep, ragged breath. 
Typically, you would laugh loudly at his exaggerated shock. Today, you only smiled, releasing the smallest chuckle. His brows furrowed as he took in your appearance. You were in a large hoodie, one you almost swam in. He knew that hoodie. It was the hoodie you wore when dysphoria was hitting harder than usual. Was that why you had been off lately? Because you had been dysphoric?
He approached carefully, leaning against a pair of double chests, eying you. Your fingers were once again, wrapped between each other, fiddling with each other, occasionally messing with the sleeve of your hoodie. Your eyes flickered over to meet him, the smile on your lips fading slightly as he eyed you. “Are you alright?”
You nodded, humming softly, “I’m fine.”
From the tone in your voice, he could tell you were not fine. “Oh, come on, scootch.” He murmured, using his shoulder to gently shove you to the side to sit beside you on the chest. “I know you, babes, what’s going on?”
You hesitated, leaning your head against his shoulder. His mask hovered over the top of your head. “I’m alright, promise. I just came over to see you. Haven’t heard from you in a few days.”
That also might have something to do with your mood. It’s been a few days since the two of you had the time (or, er, he had the time) to come and see you, unfortunately. “Yeah, sorry about that. I, uh, I’ve been busy.” He laughed awkwardly.
“I know, it’s okay.” You murmured. You offered him a small smile that he reciprocated. You were quiet for a minute and he racked his brain at what to ask. Before he could speak again, someone flew by. Your eyes landed on this new person and your breath seemed to hitch for a moment. Xisuma glanced over at you, but your eyes were fixed on this person. It was a newer member of the Hermitcraft server that was recently added. Distantly, X remembered that she was holed up near where you lived.
“I’ve been looking everywhere for you!” She announced, walking over. She noticed Xisuma and grinned, “Hey, X, remember me?” 
He nodded, “Of course, Sarah. I remember everyone!”
You scoffed, “No you don’t.” 
“Yes, I do!” He retorted, grinning and glancing back at you. You laughed softly, but it faded when Sarah’s eyes landed on you again. Suspicion tugged at his head.
Sarah looked between the two of you, eyes widening softly, “Oh, is this your boyfriend?! I didn’t realize you were dating THE XisumaVoid!”
Awkwardly, you nodded, sitting straight on the chest, “Uh, yeah. He is.”
“He, yeah? He does go by that?” Her words seemed somewhat… patronizing or teasing. It sounded off, but he couldn’t determine why.
Butting in, he nodded, “Yep! That’s me!”
Sarah nodded, “That makes sense.” She said, peering at him. Her gaze returned back to you and she smiled, “Well, I was wondering if you would help me with some redstone? You seem to be knowledgeable with that sort of thing.”
You hesitated but nodded slowly, “Oh, uh, yeah. I can help tomorrow.”
“OOh, I was hoping you could now?”
Your eyes landed on Xisuma and you shook your head, “I- I can’t today, sorry.”
Sarah followed your gaze and grinned, “Ah, okay. I understand. A girl’s gotta have some time with her boyfriend!” The words made Xisuma pause. What? His gaze moved to you and he watched as you pulled into yourself some more, hiding under the hoodie you wore. “Oh, well, we can have our girl’s night tomorrow.”
Should he correct her? Or was it something he should stay quiet about? But, it was clearly making you uncomfortable, so surely you wouldn’t get upset about him saying something, right? Deciding it to be the best course of action, Xisuma cleared his throat. “Actually, uh, Sarah, he goes by he/him pronouns.”
Sarah glanced at him in surprise, “What?”
“Uh, yeah, he’s a guy, so he goes by he/him. Honest mistake, it happens. Just be sure to use the correct pronouns next time. Maybe acknowledge to him that you got them wrong and will use the pronouns correctly next time?”
Sarah blinked at him for a moment before laughing, “Oh, you’re silly, X!”
He stared at her in confusion, glancing at you. You sighed, pulling your knees to your chest. He huffed, “I’m not joking!”
“Oh, no?” She hummed, brows furrowing, “But she’s a girl.”
“What? No!”
“No, no, but, like, she has tits? And I don’t know if you’ve seen her naked, but-”
Xisuma’s eyes widened, “I’m going to stop you right there. Don’t talk about him like that! That’s disgusting. He can use whatever pronouns feel comfortable, and to him, it’s he/him!”
“But that’s not correct, is it? Biologically, she’s a female?”
Xisuma stared at her for a moment before scoffing, “Unbelievable. I cannot believe we let such a bigot in our server. Apologize to him!”
Sarah scoffed, too, crossing her arms, “No? I haven’t done anything wrong. She’s a girl. I don’t know what she’s been telling you, but it's obvious. If you were born a girl, you’re a girl. You can’t just change your gender. “
His eyes held a sense of incredulousness, staring at her as if she was stupid. Which… she was. “Okay, I just- wow. I- goodness, what do I even do in this situation?” Without another word, he brought his arm to his face, looking at his communicator. He quickly typed a few words before speaking to her, not looking up. “One last chance? Apologize to him?”
“Why do you-” Without another word, she disappeared. Xisuma glanced up from his communicator.
He glanced towards his boyfriend, who’s gaze was on the ground as your knees were pulled up to your cheeks. “Hey, how long has she been doing that?” Wordlessly, you shrugged. He sighed, moving towards you. He tugged off his helmet, placing it beside him as he pulled your knees away to cup your cheeks. “Love, come on, you can tell me.”
“Since she joined. She’s never-” You cut yourself off with a sigh. “Do I really look like a girl?”
He sighed softly, leaning closer, “Of course not. You look very masculine, sweetie. Sarah’s just… Some people don’t understand how much their words affect others.”
“You think so?”
“I know so. Is this what’s been getting you down these past few weeks?” You hesitated before nodding. “Oh, dear. You should have come to me. I would have banned her a long time ago if I knew she was treating you this way.”
“You banned her?” You blinked in surprise, staring at him. “But- what about everyone else? Wouldn’t they be upset?”
Xisuma scoffed, “They’ll understand. In fact, they’d definitely agree with my decision. I’ll talk to them about it.” He sat beside you again, pulling you close to him. “Do you want to talk about it?”
“Not really. I just… I don’t feel like me right now.”
He nodded softly, pressing a soft kiss onto the crown of your head. “Well, I’m here to help. Let’s just… go lay down or something.”
Your head tilted to glance at him, “I thought you were busy?”
He laughed softly, “Never too busy for you, though.” He murmured. He reached over to pick up his mask, knitting his fingers against yours. “Come on, my handsome boyfriend. Let’s go cuddle. I’ll make us some tea.”

Painful Moments
Request or Prompt: (by @StarlightFoxgirlie on AO3) “Can I request Gem/Pearl/Tango/GN!Reader HCs10
Rest up to you really, but I am a sucker for fluff & hurt comfort... Maybe reader gets injured while building & those 3 take care of them?”
Pairing: Gem x Pearl x Tango x GN! Reader
Includes: injuries, hurt/comfort, arguments, guilt, Gem blames things on Tango, angst, pos ending
Words: 2.7k
A/N: i love hurt/comfort fics so much. I like angst, if you guys couldn’t tell LMAOO wait, also, i know some people can't read italics and i didn't think about that, so if you can't let me know and I'll edit it to make it obvious where the itals are
Tumblr media
You scrubbed angrily at your cheeks as tears slipped down them. You took a deep breath, closing your eyes. Everything was okay. It was fine. You looked around at your surroundings, trying to orientate yourself. You were heading in the direction of your base. Okay, good. When you had left Pearl’s base, you had just stormed off in a random direction. You were mildly thankful that you had decided to run off in this direction. 
You kept walking towards your base. You wiped your eyes as you tried to keep your mind off what had just happened. It was supposed to be a short conversation to pass the time until Gem arrived, something that had been on your mind for a long time that you thought you should mention- the fact that you felt neglected, seeing as you lived on the opposite side of the map to your partners. It wasn’t something too serious in your head, just something you were mentioning because you missed them. Pearl had hummed softly, petting your head gently and saying that you were free to come over any time. Tango, on the other hand, had huffed out a laugh, commenting that it was your own fault that you were living so far away. It was a fair accusation. You had decided to live a bit farther away from your partners than normal. You frowned when he had said that, though, sighing.
“I just wish we could spend more time together. That’s all.” You said quietly, laying your head back against the couch cushions. Pearl nodded absentmindedly, as if she was about to fall asleep. Her eyes blinked slowly as she gave you a soft smile.
Tango rolled his eyes with a grin, “You could always just move back here. I told you not to move so far. It's not our fault you don’t spend time with us anymore. We’re almost always hanging out.”
Again, while it was a fair assessment, you felt a stab of hurt as you thought about it. He was right. He, Pearl, and Gem were constantly hanging out together since they were based so close together. Did they miss you as much as you missed them? You were so lonely where you had based, besides your few neighbors hanging out with you sometimes, but you had already started your megabase. It would be such a hassle to move it now and would send hundreds of hours down the drain. 
Pearl hummed absently, “You are a bit far.” She murmured. “We’ll need to visit more often.” Her eyes drifted closed and she buried her face in your shoulder. I nodded in agreement, turning to press a kiss to her cheek.
Tango scoffed, “I told you not to move so far away.” He repeated. “Your fault now.” It sounded harsher than he probably realized, but he didn’t correct his tone. You blinked at him softly, brows furrowing as you frowned at him.
“It was a pretty area and the things I have planned need a lot of room, you know that.” You said.
He huffed, rolling his eyes, “yeah, yeah, I know, I know. Your base and projects are more important than your partners.”
You paused. Was he serious or was he just making a really cruel joke? “Excuse you?”
Tango glanced at you. He had to be able to tell the sour mood he had inflicted on you. “You heard me! You moved all the way over there, even farther than freaking Joe and you didn’t even consider what it might do to our relationship.”
Pearl’s eyes opened, but you barely spared her any mind as you gaped at him in disbelief. “What it would do to our relationship?!” You repeated. “What the fuck is that supposed to mean? Am I wrong to assume that we’ll still be a loving couple even if I move a little farther than usual?”
“Oh, please, you had to know that it would strain us.”
You stood up from the couch, staring at him with pain-stricken eyes. Pearl glanced between the two of you with confusion, having not fully payed attention. The door opened and Gem walked in. She went to speak, but you spoke first, glaring at Tango. “You think our relationship is in a strain right now? What do you mean by that?” You hissed.
Gem stopped in her tracks, blinking in confusion. She moved over to the side, placing her things down. “Hey, woah, what’s this about a relationship being in a strain? We’re fine, aren’t we?”
Tango crossed his arms, “We would be if they weren’t so far away. If our relationship fails, it’s all their fault. Honestly, maybe we should just-” He quickly stopped talking, eyes wide as if he had said something he hadn’t meant to. His eyes snapped to yours.
You stared at him, frozen. Tears gathered in your eyes. You didn’t move. You couldn’t. Did he just say that? “Maybe you should just… break up with me?” You breathed, finishing his thought. “Is that what you were going to say?”
The room was tense. Pearl, finally caught up on the situation, looked at Tango with wide eyes. Gem was staring at you in panic. She spoke first.
“What, no! He didn’t mean that.” Her eyes darted to his. “Tell them you weren’t gonna say that! You were going to say something else, right?” He was quiet. His gaze moved to the floor. “Oh, oh, God.” She murmured, her tone filled with horror. 
“You- why would you say that?” Pearl asked quietly, leaning over to Tango. “Just because we are a bit… strained… doesn’t mean we’re going to break up with them.” 
Her words made you stare at her now. Has this been a conversation before? You let out a shaky breath, eyes darting between your three partners, “Have- Have you three been discussing the strain in our relationship?” You swallowed thickly. 
“No, no, no.” Gem assured. “We just- We’ve been talking about how we miss you a lot. Nothing about a strain.”
Pearl nodded slowly, agreeing. Tango pursed his lips and nodded before he spoke again. “We haven’t spoken about it yet.”
“Yet?” You repeated slowly. “So, it is a problem you need to talk about?” You wiped your cheek as a tear hit your skin. You shook your head. Your body moved before you could even react. It was childish, perhaps, running out into the darkness with no light or anything, but you did just that. As you ran, you didn’t even think about the fact that you had left your wings back at Pearl’s house. You didn’t think about how Gem and Pearl called your name from the porch. You did think about how you heard Gem turning on Tango, demanding why he had said those things to you. You tripped over a stick as you ran, slowing to a walk as you caught yourself. You had just messed up everything, hadn’t you?
Your house came into view and you quickly shielded yourself inside. You moved around quickly, completing menial tasks to keep any thoughts about Tango and Gem and Pearl off your mind. When you finished all your inside tasks, you huffed. You needed more to do. You scanned your house before your eyes fell on a blueprint you were working on. It was practically done, just missing a few small parts. You sat at your desk and worked on it diligently.
When you were done, you took a deep breath. Memories of what happened at Pearl’s base flooded into your mind and you bit your lip. More distraction was needed, it seemed. You hesitated before grabbing the blueprint and heading outside. The sun was slowly peeking over the trees around you at this point, providing enough light for you to see what was happening. You posted the blueprint on a post you had and started gathering materials.
Once the shulkers you had were full, you quickly began starting on the build. One block at a time. You worked quickly and diligently, focusing all your despair into your build. Your mind, admittedly, was not on the build at all, though. Your brain flashed with thoughts about the fight. Could that even be considered a fight? Was something like that grounds for breaking up? Were the three- your favorite people ever- going to break up with you? You hated that you didn’t know what was happening in people’s minds. You wished to know what Tango was thinking right now. Was he thinking of how to finally break up with you? Was he thinking about inviting you over and telling you he was sick of having to travel so far to visit you? That wasn’t like him, but you didn’t think he was capable of saying the awful things from last night, either.
Your heart stopped as your foot hit the end of the wall you were standing on. You slid off the side, yelping as your ankle twisted awkwardly. You fell off the wall. Hard. You groaned as you brushed hair from your face. You tried to sit up, but pain flooded your entire body. You laid still, groaning at the pain you were in. Great, now I’m going to die painfully. You thought to yourself. How could this day get any worse?
Apparently, the universe wanted to say a big fuck you. You raised your arm, ignoring all the pain you felt to try and contact someone on your communicator. With a swear, you realized your communicator was broken. A large crack down the glass on the screen that made it impossible to use. The screen was dark, too, so perhaps something else was wrong with it.
You laid there, trying not to cry. This had to be the worst day of your entire life. What could possibly be worse than this?
You had to stop asking yourself that.
The sky above you thundered and within a few minutes, rain started to pelt you from above. The sky, which just an hour ago was fully blue and clear, was dark and stormy. You felt the water soaking your clothes and making your hair wet. This was rock bottom. This was like bedrock, and nothing went farther than bedrock.
You laid there for a solid hour, in excruciating pain. You hoped someone would come by- a mob, even- to kill you. It would possibly take days to respawn, but at least you wouldn’t feel this much pain anymore. Alas, no such luck. Not a single zombie, creeper, or skeleton headed your way. 
You wanted to cry, scream, do something to help the pain. But nothing happened. The world around you was silent.
And then, you heard voices. Familiar ones.
“Tango, you are going to apologize to them so bad. I cannot believe you said something like that!” 
“It was stupid, I know! I’m sorry! I don’t know what came over me! I would never want to break up with them.”
“Yeah, well, tell that to them when we- Oh!” Pearl gasped, running over to where you were laying, “Love, what happened?” Tango and Gem’s eyes widened as they saw what Pearl was talking about. The two rushed over, kneeling beside you. 
“I was building.” You mumbled. You were exhausted right now. “I wasn’t fully paying attention because…” You trailed off. They knew what you meant. “And I tripped and fell off. It hurts so bad.” You let out a low whimper.
Pearl scanned you quickly before glancing at her partners. “Gem, grab their legs. Tango, make sure you keep their midsection up.” Pearl instructed. “We’re going to move you inside the house, okay, darl?” You nodded, too exhausted to even respond at this point. The three of them got in their positions and lifted you. The pain was horrendous.
It felt like years before you were placed onto the couch in your home. Gem sat beside your head, petting your hair gently as Pearl hurried to gather supplies to make healing potions. Tango hesitated near the end of the couch, eyeing your situation. 
It was quiet. The only sound was the low whimpering you let out every few moments and Pearl’s use of the mortar in the kitchen. Then, Gem spoke.
“You shouldn’t have done that to them.” She said quietly. You blinked tiredly, trying to figure out what she meant. “You made them leave us and now look, they're hurt.”
Tango was quiet before he sighed, “You’re saying it's my fault?” He didn’t sound angry at the notion. In fact, he seemed to accept it as the truth. “It was. I don’t- I don’t know what’s wrong with me. I don’t know why I said those things.”
You wanted to say something. To tell him that it was okay. It hurt to hear him sound so defeated and in pain. But you couldn’t speak. After being in such bad pain for hours, you were too tired. Your eyes drifted shut and you fell asleep.
You woke up hours later to Pearl pouring a healing pot into your mouth. You sat up slightly to help it go down and you noticed a considerable amount of pain had left. You sat up fully, sitting normally. You peered around. Pearl moved to sit beside you and you noticed that Gem was leaning against the couch, sitting on the floor asleep. You bent over, pressing a gentle kiss to the top of her head. She stirred slightly, but ultimately, she burrowed into her sweatshirt. 
You glanced around the room. No sign of your fiery boyfriend. Your brows cinched. “Where is he?” You murmured quietly. 
Pearl hummed softly, placing the healing pot in your hand so you could drink the rest of it. “Outside. Said he needed some space. He… blames himself for you getting hurt.” She hesitated before sighing, “He didn’t mean it. He really didn’t. He told us he was overwhelmed and wanted to be with all of us, and then you started talking about how you missed us too and he just… I don’t know. He didn’t mean it.”
You nodded slowly. You downed the rest of the potion before standing. You wobbled lightly before you headed to the door. You walked out, finding Tango sitting on the steps of your base. His head was in his hands and he was mumbling to himself. You couldn’t decipher what he was saying.
“T?” You called quietly. You trailed over to stand behind him. His ears perked up, but he didn’t look up from his hands. You hesitated before moving to sit beside him. “Tango?”
He slowly pulled his head from his hands, peering at you. His eyes were rimmed with red. “I’m sorry.” He whispered, his voice cracking from crying. “God, I- I don’t- I’m so sorry. I didn’t mean any of it.”
“I know.” You replied softly. You moved slowly, leaning your head against his shoulder.
“You didn’t deserve that.”
“I didn’t.” You agreed.
It was quiet again. You heard the door open behind you and the two girls from inside appeared at your side. Pearl sat beside Tango, while Gem sat on the other side of you. Your hand reached for Tango’s. He hesitated before slipping it into his. Your other hand was grabbed by Gem, and Tango’s by Pearl.
“I love you.” Tango whispered. He was talking to all three of you. “I’m sorry.”
Pearl leaned over, pressing a soft kiss to his temple before smiling gently, “We all are.” She looked over at you. “We should have been better partners to you, Y/N.” She murmured. 
Gem nodded softly, “I’m sorry for blaming you, Tango. It was all of us.”
Tango shook his head, “You were perfectly in line to do that. I deserved it. I was an asshole.” It was quiet as we stayed there together. The rain had gone, leaving it slightly muggy, but it was peaceful. Birds chirped in the distance.
“We’ll get through this.” You whispered. “We always do.” Your partners all nodded. Tango and Gem squeezed your hand. “I love you.”
“I love you.” The three of them repeated in tandem. They would have to have a nice, long chat later about everything that had happened, but for now, they knew everything would be okay and that was enough.

Any fic for sculked cub?
Pairing: Sculk! Scientist! Cubfan135 x M! Husband! Reader
Includes: horror elements, angst, ambiguous ending, slight manipulation, written slightly ooc on purpose, yandere
Words: 1.8k
A/N: okay, i know this probably isn’t what you wanted, you probably wanted something sweet or something, but hey, most of the works I write (outside of fanfic) are horror related. If you don’t like it, I’ll write something else for ya just lmk >:D I really love how this turned out btw
Tumblr media
His lab was dark when you arrived. Confusion bubbled in your chest as you glanced around the dark halls. The door was unlocked, but where was everyone? If everything was still open and accessible, there had to be at least one person left in the building, and you knew your husband had yet to leave work. In fact, he hadn’t been home in two days. So, where was he? 
You trailed through the dark halls of the facility, peering into rooms quickly to look for Cub. Fear crept into you as you glanced around. You had never been a huge fan of the dark, but the sterilized white walls made it almost worse. You felt as if you were walking through a hospital during a horror movie. You pushed past your irrational fears- finding Cub was your first priority. 
There was a noise in a room in front of you, something moving, like a desk chair. There was a dull blue light pulsating from the room. You moved slowly, terrified that something was going to jump at you. The light you saw only dimmed as you got closer, as if sensing someone was coming near. When you got within a certain distance of the doorway, your footsteps made the light flash angrily. You stopped. A noise akin to a shriek escaped the room. Your heart was pounding now. You could feel the tension in the air. A shadow passed by the doorway in front of the light. You held your breath, eyes wide as you stared, nerves consuming you.
“Who’s out there? This is a private facility.”
Your fear slowly ebbed away as the familiar voice graced your ears. You sighed out in relief. However, despite knowing it was your husband, anxiety and unease picked at the back of your skin, almost telling you not to move forward. Ignoring those feelings, you stepped forward. As you stepped, there was another flash and a second shriek type noise.
“Cub?” You called out softly. A third shriek. A third flash. The shadow in front of the light paused. You took a deep breath and headed towards the door, ignoring the flashing blue light and the shrieks. You rounded the corner of the doorframe and glanced inside. The room was dark, of course. But it was almost… darker than the rest of the building. The windows were covered with black vines, as was the floor and the ceiling. The walls were caked in the stuff, too. The black vines pulsated with a tinge of blue light, as if beating like a heart. Your eyes trailed around the room as your heart rate spiked.
You almost glanced over him, standing in the corner, wearing full black. You could barely see his outline against the dark walls. You took a step forward, stepping on a vine. The vine itself let out a loud shrieking noise, coiling away from you. Your breath hitched.
“Stay where you are.” Cub’s voice called out. You glanced up to where he was again, swallowing thickly and nodding slowly despite the fact that he was faced away from you. You watched for a moment in silence, waiting for him to move or talk or do… anything other than stand there, facing the wall. “Why did you come here?”
There was something… off about his voice. An edge of something unfamiliar tainting the comfort his voice usually brought you. Instead of comfort, you felt a wave of unease wash over you, coating your heart as it beat faster. “You haven’t been home in a few days.” You said, willing your voice not to shake. You couldn’t decipher what was so wrong about the scene in front of you. “I wanted to check on you. Make sure you were okay.”
He didn’t say anything. It was quiet in the room again. You could hear a low thrumbing, seemingly coming from the vines coating every surface in the room. Then, he turned to face you. The darkness shielded his face from you and you couldn’t see anything except the bright blue eyes peering at you. Your brows furrowed. His eyes were not blue. His eyes didn’t shine in that sinister fashion. He was different now, it seemed. Your breath hitched as he tilted his head.
“You needn’t worry about me.” He said. His voice was the same but different. Still making your heart speed up, but not in the way he used to. “I have discovered something revolutionary.” You swallowed thickly once more. Nerves made your body shake as you tried to take a step forward. “Stop.” He commanded. You froze, quickly putting your leg back where it had been a second ago. “You can leave, just don’t walk forward.”
His voice was void of any emotion. It was weird. You had never heard him like this before. So… bleak.
“You- You’re not-” You didn’t know what to say. What kind of questions would you even ask him? How could you navigate this situation? You wracked your brain before turning. He let out a low hum as you navigated to the door. Your hand reached up the wall. Your face scrunched up as you felt the horrendous texture of the black veins running up the wall. Your fingers felt around until you found the light switch.
“Wait, no, don’t-” The light came on. There was a loud screech. You turned and looked at your husband. Your heart sank. His skin was inky and he had blue stars shimmering over his entire body. His eyes narrowed at you as you stepped back in horror at the sight. “Turn it off.” You didn’t move, too terrified at the man in front of you. You heard a creeping noise and, out of the corner of your eye, you saw one of the vines creep over and situated itself over the light switch, switching it off. 
“What happened to you?” Your voice came out in a stark whisper. Your mind reeled with images of the man you loved, now spotted with ebony and shimmering lights. “We- We need help. I can-” You swallowed, “I can call Gem to come in early, she can help. She- She’s been working on a similar subject to you, right? Surely, she knows how to reverse… whatever this is.”
His voice came out low, “There’s nothing to fix. I’m fine, dear.” There was emotion, this time. He sounded like himself again, at least. But his words were wrong. How could he think this was fine? “I’m better than fine, really! I’ve accomplished something magnificent.”
“You- This isn’t you, Cub. You can’t just- what even is that?”
His eyes squinted in the darkness, “Sculk. It’s chosen me as its host.”
Your brain couldn’t focus on anything, the panic made everything fuzzy. “Host? What are you- What are you talking about?”
He stepped forward. “My experiments are a success. Everything I have ever done has led to this moment. And we can do this together!” Your breath caught in your throat. What did he mean by that? Before you could voice your concerns, he spoke again. “My husband, you have been so patient with me while I’ve worked on this. I have been working towards this point for years and finally, finally I have done it!”
He was speaking weirdly again. His tone kept shifting. He didn’t talk like himself. He wasn’t himself, and you voiced just that. “This isn’t you. This is… whatever this is corrupting your brain or something. We can just call Gem and everything will be fine.” You were trying to convince yourself more than him at this point. “I- I’ll go get her! We can- You can stay here, and I’ll go get Gem so she can help us.”
The door behind you slammed shut. You jumped, running to the door and trying to pry it open. The inky vines slowly moved over the door, making sure it wouldn’t be able to be opened. Your breathing quickened as you spun around to face your husband again. You hadn’t heard him move, but he was closer now. Your hands shook as you stared at him, meeting him in those unfamiliar eyes. This wasn’t Cub. It couldn’t have been.
Your Cub would never let you go to sleep angry. Your Cub would take care of you when you were sick, even if he had said the night before he was going into the lab. Your Cub would take you to fancy dinners that the two of you could barely afford on birthdays and anniversaries. How could this be your Cub?
“You’re thinking. I can tell. You always bite your lip when you think.” You didn’t realize you had been biting your lip, but he was right. When you thought, or even as a nervous tic, you would bite your lip. You pushed it out from between your teeth, sucking in a deep breath. He still knew you. Maybe the real Cub was inside this inky black creature. His head tilted to the side again, surveying you. “What’s on your mind, darling? This is a good thing. A revolutionary thing. I have spent my entire life working up to this moment!”
Your eyes trailed over his body again, taking in the inky abyss that was his skin. You wondered how long he had been turning into this. Did it start yesterday when he didn’t come home? Or had it started sooner and you just hadn’t noticed? The thought made you sick.
“Cub.” Your voice shook. “This is not a good thing. You- You’re different. We need to get someone to help you. Let me help you.” 
He barked a laugh, “No. Let me help you. Join me. You’re my husband, I wouldn’t dream of doing this without you. This is amazing. Like this, I’m resistant to fire, I don’t have to eat, or drink water! I’m practically unkillable!” Your eyes flashed with anxiety as you stared at him, slowly walking closer. Was he walking? Or was he gliding against the vines, as if he was a part of them? You couldn’t tell. “We can be immortal this way. We can be happy together, amazing even! We can be gods.”
You stepped back, your back hitting the door. “I- I don’t want to be a god. I just want to be me. And I want you to be you!” You pleaded with him. You yelped as you felt a vine circling your arm, pining you to the door. You tried with all your might to tug your appendage free to no avail. Your other arm got stuck. Then your legs. You felt the vines covering you. Cub came closer, his eyes manic as he dragged them over the substance enveloping you.
“I am me. And you will be you. We can be us together.” He murmured softly. His hand moved up. You flinched. He didn’t stop, using his hand to gently move a hair from your face. His hand trailed to cup your cheek. “Just like we always have been. Our bond will be stronger than ever.”

The gentle tapping on the glass to your right caused you to stir in your sleep. You blinked sleepily. The taps stopped and you almost thought you were imagining it. Your eyes slipped closed again and you yawned as you laid back against your pillow. Then, a hand slipped over your mouth. 
Your eyes shot open and you went to scream. The hand pressed harsher and you heard a shushing noise in your ear. You turned your head, seeing a familiar mop of brown hair. You sighed in relief, smacking his hand away. “You asshole!” You whisper-yelled.
Grian laughed quietly, “I didn’t want you to scream.” He whispered. “C’mon I have something to show you.”
“What time is it?” 
“Doesn’t matter.” You rolled your eyes at his response and glanced across the room where Pearl and BigB were still sleeping soundly. Outside the window, it was still dark. 
You huffed quietly, “Where are you taking me?”
“Bad boys never reveal their secrets, Y/N.”
You blinked tiredly at him but sighed, throwing the blanket off you. “Let me slip my shoes on.” He grinned victoriously, watching as you tied your shoes. He led you out the same way he had entered, helping you climb out the window. When he had, he held out his hand for you to take. The two of you walked hand in hand. Neither of you were in any rush, it seems, despite the way he woke you up.
“I missed you, y’know.” He muttered, glancing at you out of the corner of his eyes. “Jim’s company, but not really a good one.”
You snorted at his little jab at his brother. “Be nice. You know he loves hanging out with you and Joel.” He laughed softly. “Where are you even taking me?”
“You’ll see.” He responded, keeping the mystery. You yawned again, leaning your head against his leather jacket. You glanced at him. His sunglasses were still resting above his head, as they were when the sun was out. “You have to trust me. You trust me, don’t you?”
You rolled your eyes, “You know I do. As much as we’re like Romeo and Juliet.”
He laughed, “And which one is which, huh? Am I Romeo or Juliet?”
“Depends who dies first.” The comment made him go quiet. You hesitated before swallowing, “That’s not what I meant.”
He shrugged, “I know. It’ll happen eventually.” He coughed before leaning over, “We’re almost there.” You hummed softly and the rest of the walk was quiet. Eventually, you found yourself at the entrance of the Woodland Manor. He released your hand and moved to sit on the steps.
You raised an eyebrow, glancing around the dark forest. It was probably crawling with googlies and the thought freaked you out. “What are we doing here?”
“What, you don’t like my surprise?”
You huffed, sitting beside him and pulling your shirt closer to you to shield you from the chill in the air. “You woke me up at a stupidly early time, to bring me to this haunted manor?”
He scoffed, “Haunted? Love, it’s not haunted. Just inhabited.” Grian laughed softly, “It's alright. I know you’re annoyed. It's what the Bad Boys do.”
“Be mean to their partners? You don’t see Joel being rude to Lizzie.”
He gave you a look, “No, pretend to be annoying.” He grinned as he pointed up. “The stars are pretty and I know you like looking at them.”
You looked up, following his finger. Your eyes widened as you saw a clearing in the trees directly above where you were. The stars were stunning. Admittedly, you hadn’t had the chance to view the stars in so long and Grian knew that. He also knew that you loved looking at stars because it reminded you of home. Of before these wretched games. 
You jumped slightly as you felt fabric wrap around your shoulders. You looked down and noticed Grian’s signature leather jacket draped around you. You glanced at him with a smile before leaning against his shoulder. He put his arm around your shoulder in retaliation. 
“You’re happy.” He said smugly.
You rolled your eyes, “Shut up. Let me enjoy this moment with you before your little gang takes you away again.” You had a feeling he also rolled his eyes, but he didn’t respond. His head lolled against yours and he hummed softly. After a few minutes, you felt the need to say something. “I love you.”
He was quiet for a moment before replying, “I know.”
You let out a faux gasp and sat up, slapping his shoulder, “You jerk!” He laughed with you. The sounds of your glee echoed through the forest. “Say it back!”
“What if I don’t mean it?” 
“Too bad, you have to say it anyway.” You said, sticking out your tongue childishly. 
He responded with the same gesture before wrapping you in a hug and pulling you down to your side. You shrieked with laughter and he shushed you while trying to keep his own laughter down. “Stop! You’ll wake them up! The bad boys need their sleep!”
Your laughter faded and you ended up with your arms wrapped around his neck as he laid beside you. There was a grin on his face and a certain sparkle in those dark voids he called eyes. “You know I love you.” He murmured softly, hitting his nose against yours. 
You huffed softly, messing with the tuft of hair on the back of his neck, “I know.”

A/N: ooh good idea. I love vampire mumbo. Sorry about the long wait! But I'm on spring break rn so hopefully the remainder of my reqs should be done shortly
Part one
Tumblr media
“Oh goodness!” He cried, slapping a hand onto his neck as something bit him. He had been dazed as he walked, but he was surprised when he slapped onto nothing. Something had definitely bit him, but nothing was there. He spun around quickly, brows furrowed as he looked for a culprit. “O-Oh?” He hesitated, thinking he made the entire situation up. It wouldn’t be the first time hallucinating something with how awful his sleep schedule had been.
He thumbed at where his skin thrumbed with a dull pain, he could feel it. Two holes and smaller indentations around those two holes. He could feel it. Surely he wasn’t making that up? The lack of sleep would not have been that bad, surely. He couldn’t have just imagined the bite on his neck.
A sense of nausea built up in him as he walked back to his base, massaging the sore wound. Confusion nipped at him as his eyes started to feel heavy. He felt tired. Well, he had been tired for weeks. But he felt… drained. More drained than he had ever felt. Even though it was fully sunny out, he entered his base. His eyes hurt from the lights, so he flipped the lights off. Despite the darkness he now faced, he could see almost better now. Brushing it off, he trailed to his bed, collapsing onto it, hoping to sleep off whatever had happened.
Mumbo woke the next day with his neck still thumbing lightly. He tapped it with his fingers only to sit up quickly when he noticed, what seemed to be, veins pulling at his skin. He faced his mirror. He blinked. “Blimey, there's- there's no way!” He stuttered over himself as he rubbed his eyes. But, his vision was not the issue. The issue was that he wasn't in the mirror.
He laughed almost deliriously as he tapped on the glass, looking at it from all sides. No matter where he looked, there was no reflection. This must be a dream. He reasoned after a moment of brief hysteria. Of course! What else would it be?
His base’s door opened and his light turned on. He hissed. Hissed? He blinked roughly as the light burned his eyes. “Turn it off, mate, please?” He called out to whoever had entered his home. He heard footsteps returning to the door before the light got flipped off. He sighed in relief as he blinked and his eyes became less watery.
“You alright, Mumbo?” Scar’s voice rang through the building. “You seem a bit tense.” Mumbo sighed, turning to face Scar. He went to speak, but Scar’s face turned a bit shocked and he narrowed his eyes, “Hey, friend, have you been sleeping? You’re really pale. And your eyes are bloodshot.”
Mumbo’s brows furrowed, “What do you mean?” Scar went to respond, but his eyes trailed backwards until his gaze hit the mirror. His eyes widened and he stared at the mirror. “What are you looking at?”
“Do you have a trick mirror?”
Mumbo frowned in response, a bit of panic seeping into his chest as he spun around to face the mirror. “I’m not there, yeah?! It’s weird. I don’t know. I think someone must have switched it out-” His words died in his chest as Scar appeared in the mirror. “What? That’s not- That’s not possible-”
Scar eyed the mirror before looking back at Mumbo, who’s eyes were still searching for his reflection. “Is it a trick of the light or-” His breath hilted in his chest. “Mumbo, buddy, did you get bit by something? You have a large welt on your neck.” He moved his hand over to look at the mark, “It looks like… Did you get bit by a vampire or something?”
“A vampire?! What, no, no, those aren’t- those aren’t real-” He tried to say, wiping his eyes over and over to try to see something in the mirror. 
Scar thought for a moment before grabbing his shoulder, pushing him towards the door, “Look, step outside, see how you react.”
Mumbo scoffed, “Scar, I don’t- I don’t think that’s gonna prove anything-” He muttered before Scar paused at the door frame.
“Humour me.”
Scar opened the door and pushed him out. An inhuman screech left Mumbo as his entire body erupted in pain. He hissed as Scar pulled him back inside, face the same pale as Mumbo’s. Mumbo swallowed thickly as his skin almost bubbled from the exposure to the sun.
“Okay, so I think you are a vampire.” Scar mumbled as Mumbo found a seat. He breathed thickly, on the edge of panicking. “Wait, this could be good! This- It could be a good thing!”
“Scar, how would this possibly be a good thing?”
Scar hesitated before speaking, “You can see him again.”
Mumbo fell quiet. It was true. He could see you again. It would be just like old times except… he would be able to stay with you. The night would be for them. They could finally be together. Like he always wanted them to be. But at the same time, what about everyone else? All his friends?
Scar sighed softly, “Hey, you’ll figure it all out. We all will. For now, just chill out here until it gets dark outside, then you can go see Y/N.”
He nodded absentmindedly, trailing off to his bed. He collapsed into the cushions. It took a few moments for Scar to waddle out of the base, leaving the door with a soft sigh as if he was mulling over something in his mind. Despite the raging thoughts in his mind, Mumbo found his consciousness fading into a deep sleep.
When he woke up, it was dark outside. He sat on the edge of his bed, staring at the night sky, deep in thought. He wanted to see you, of course, but would you want to see him? You had broken up with him. And, while you reasoned it was because of his sleep habits, what if that was just an excuse? A way to let him down gently? He sighed, burying his face into his hands. It was now or never, he supposed. He urged himself to stand, his anxiety weighing him down as he swayed to his feet. Taking a shaky breath, he walked to the door of his base. He hesitated. Was he sure that it was the sun that had burnt him earlier? Mumbo's lip twitched as his hand subconsciously rubbed his arm, where the boils from earlier had begun to scar over. With another breath, he stepped out, clenching his eyes in fear of being burned. 
Nothing happened.
His eyes opened slowly, one at a time, and he glanced around him. He was fine. No burns, no boils, no blisters. He nearly laughed in relief as he spun around, staring at the moon in all of its greatness. Maybe he was actually a vampire? The thought was crazy but, at this point? All the evidence pointed to it.
He took his time walking to your base. He wasn't sure what he wanted to say to you. How would he explain that you were all he thought about? That you were the first person he wanted to see after learning of this new… thing he had going on? Would you even listen to him, hear him out? Would you accuse him of doing something stupid even though he had no meaning for this to happen?
Before he knew it, he was outside your base door. From the windows, he could see your silhouette flying around inside, the shadow breezing past the shudders. He held his breath at the prospect of seeing you again. He had longed for this moment ever since you had broken things off. All he wanted was you.
His fist came in contact with the door, knocking once, twice, thrice. He paused, waiting. Mumbo's mind raced with possibilities. Then, the door creaked open. There was a silence as you stared at him, the smile on your lips fading as you looked at him. Your eyes met. Neither of you said a word for a few quiet moments. The cicadas filled the silence, creating an ambience that didn't seem awkward but wasn't fully comfortable.
“You're awake.” Was the first thing you commented, “I figured you'd be asleep.”
“Yeah.” Was his reply. “I thought so too.”
The quiet between them was tough. It felt almost suffocating. “You… don't look alright. You seem pale, and your eyes are all red.” You said, swallowing thickly. “Are- Are you okay?”
He could tell you were wondering if you had the right to ask him that. He nodded slowly, “Yeah, I- I, uh, I think so. I,” He took a deep breath, “I want to talk to you.”
You stared at him, taking in his disheveled appearance before nodding slowly. You opened the door wider, motioning with your head for him to enter. He followed your invitation. You led him to your living room, sitting him down across from you. “So, what's wrong? Are you… sick?”
He laughed breathlessly, eying you, “You could say that.” He confessed. He glanced at his shoes, counting the amount of times his laces crossed before glancing back up, “I got, er, bit by something yesterday.”
“Oh?” You sounded intrigued, but Mumbo could tell it was just an attempt to humour him. His presence was as painful for you as yours was to him. “Like a wolf? A fox?”
“Not exactly. I… I don't know what it was, actually. I just know it… changed me.”
Your eyebrows raised, staring at him, “Changed? How so?” The unspoken question of why are you telling me? went unsaid, but he could tell it was on the tip of your tongue.
Mumbo paused. Would you believe him if he told you? Surely you would, right? You've never not believed him in the past. “I became a sort of vampire?” He said, his voice coming out as if he had asked a question. “I- I can't go in the sun anymore, or this happens.” He lifted his arm, flashing the sores there. You blinked, just now noticing the marks. Your eyes shone with concern that you didn't voice. “My eyes get really sensitive to lighting. I don't have a reflection in a mirror. I haven't tried garlic, but I have to say, I'm kinda nervous to do so.” He managed a small nervous chuckle.
Your eyes scanned his blistered skin, “Oh, Mumbo.” Your words came out so… caring. It was as if nothing had happened between the two of you at all. You moved from across from him to sit directly at his side, cradling one of his arms on your thighs. “I- Are you okay? Does it still hurt?”
Yes. It feels like I've got the chicken pox or something. “No, no, I don't- I don't feel it.”
“And- And this happened from just stepping in the sun?” He nodded. Your eyes shone with concern. “Oh, that's awful. I- How- How did this happen?” 
Wordlessly, he showed you the marks on his neck. While the irritated skin was less red and puffy, the small incisions were still noticeable to the untrained eye. 
“Oh my void.” You murmured, reaching to graze over the mark. He flinched, not from pain but from the unexpected touch. You darted your hand back, “Oh! I'm sorry.”
“No! No, you're- it's okay. Just- Just wasn't ready for it.” He reassured. You nodded slowly, your hand moving to graze his cheek. 
“Is this why you're so pale? Why your eyes are red and bloodshot? The dark bags under your eyes?”
While the dark bags were probably from the severe lack of sleep, he nodded, blaming it on the vampirism. “I wanted to see you. As soon as I realized that I had changed. I wanted to talk to you.”
You stared at him for a moment before speaking, your voice cracking with despair, “But- Why? I broke your heart, why would you want to see me?”
His hand moved to cup your cheek and he smiled bittersweet, “You just wanted to help me. It was the right call. But now- Now, we can be together again. Be happy again.”
You paused, staring at him for a moment before a tear slipped from your eye. You nodded as his thumb wiped away the salty water. “I love you. I haven't- I've barely slept since I broke things off. I couldn't stop thinking about you. About how much I missed you.” 
He nodded softly, leaning over to press his forehead against yours, “We'll never be apart again, dear. I promise.”

could you maybe do Scott?
Pairing: Scott Smajor x Masc! Reader (up to you whether relationship includes Jimmy or not)
Includes: not really lore accurate but oh well, humour, light-hearted/joke threats, mentions of death/respawn mechanics, third life mentions, very soft and sweet ending, twinge of angst ig (Reader is never directly mentioned to *be* masc, but its written with that in mind)
Words: 1.3k
A/N: I love Scott. I’ve been his fan for so long lol; he’s one of the big reasons that I had the confidence to come out online and to my friends (still not brave enough for my family, but uh yeah)
Tumblr media
“I TOLD HIM NOT TO DO IT.” Your voice carried in the flower field as you walked through with crossed arms. “He just doesn’t listen!”
Scott laughed, “You’re right. He doesn’t. We all know that, though. He just had to try the game. Now he’s a yellow.” Jimmy emerged from his house with flushed cheeks, having heard your cries from his basement as he respawned. He scratched the back of his neck awkwardly, laughing nervously. “Look at his new yellow eyes, aren’t they cute?”
“They would be more cute if it was a reasonable death.” You grumbled, sending the blonde haired man a glare. “You don’t know how hard I’ve tried to keep you alive, just for you to jump in and attempt Tango’s death trap!” 
“Well, I wanted to-”
You narrowed your eyes at him, “If the next words out of your mouth have anything to do with Tango or his stupid game, I’m going to send you straight to red.” His face paled and he closed his mouth, glancing at Scott.
Scott laughed softly, reaching over to grab your elbow and tug you back. “Let him get some rest. He did just respawn. He’s probably very tired.” He reasoned.
While you let him tug you back, you scoffed, “Karma for being an idiot.” As Scott dragged you over to your shared base, Jimmy entered his again to go back to sleep for a little while longer. “Why would he do that after I specifically told him not to?!”
Scott laughed softly as the pair of you walked into the base. You collapsed onto the couch with a sigh. “You know he doesn’t like to listen to us.” He mentioned, sitting beside you. You huffed out, leaning over to practically lay on top of him.
“He’s so difficult. If this continues, he’ll be the first one out!”
He shrugged, “Well, we didn’t really expect him to last very long.”
“I mean, not the first one, though! I thought we could protect him!”
Scott hummed softly, wrapping his arms around your shoulders. “We can’t watch him at all times of the day.”
“We were right beside him as he ran into the court.” He shrugged with a grin. “Well, no use thinking about it now.” You sighed, tilting your head up to look at him above you. “You won’t go dying on me, will you?”
He glanced down at you with furrowed brows, “It’s inevitable, darling.”
“I know.”
It was quiet for a moment before you grinned, “I guess we just have to do everything that we have ever wanted to do before we become red.”
He raised an eyebrow, “Like what?”
“Well… I know I’ve always wanted to have dinner with the love of my life under the setting sun.” You mentioned, cheeks feeling warmer as you mentioned it. Your eyes softened as you stared at him. “Or, I’ve always wanted to adopt a dog with you.”
He stared at you for a moment, eyes soft as he took in what you said. “I suppose we can do those things. We can do them tonight, if you want.” You grinned, sitting up, excitedly.
“Really?”
“Well, yeah. Those are pretty simple to do. Surprised we haven’t had dinner under the sunset before.”
You nodded softly, “At least we can do it now! Anything you’ve always wanted to do with me?”
He thought for a moment, humming softly. “I don’t know. I’ve mostly just focused on being there for you, y’know?” He smiled as you did, staring at each other intently. 
“Well, you have all night to think about it.” You murmured. You leaned forward and pressed a chaste kiss to his lips, leaning back just as quickly. “You ready for that dinner? The sun should be setting soon.” He smiled softly, nodding.
Twenty minutes later, the two of you found yourselves on top of the hill you lived in, a blanket thrown below you as the sun began to slowly lower behind the distant horizon. The sky was filled with pinks and purples. Your eyes stared into the beautiful sky as Scott placed the picnic basket between the two of you. The meal that had been prepared was not very big, but it was dinner. The most important part, anyway, was the two of you being together for this sunset.
“Scott?” Your voice asked, soft and floaty as your eyes never left the horizon. From the corner of your eyes, you saw him glance up at you. “Isn’t the sky so… pretty?”
His face turned towards the sunset for a moment and he nodded, “It is.” 
“Is it always this pretty?” You finally turned to face him, your face tranquil and peaceful.
He hummed, thinking softly, “Yeah, I think so. Maybe not so pink some days.”
“I like the pink. It makes the sky look magical.”
He didn’t respond, instead choosing to lean against his arm. He used his free hand to open the basket and pull out a sandwich. He handed one to you before grabbing a second one and taking a bite out of it. You hummed softly as you bit into yours. Your surroundings were quiet as the two of you admired the setting sun and ate your dinners.
When the meal was eaten, the two of you stared across the horizon. The sun had already dipped below the treeline and the sky was slowly becoming dimmer. “We should go inside, yeah?”
Scott hesitated before shaking his head, “Nah, we can stay out here for a little longer. I like the peace you bring me.” His hand inched closer to yours until he had placed it on top of yours. You smiled softly, peering at him with a look of adoration. “You were right to suggest this. Tomorrow, we can get that dog you were talking about.”
You couldn’t take your eyes off of him. This man… was the love of your life. You loved him more than you could even verbalize. “I wish we had longer than a few weeks to be together.”
His smile became almost sad as he scooted closer to you. “We’ll see each other after the games.”
“If whoever runs these games let us out.” 
His shoulder hit yours playfully, “Hey, look on the bright side of things, yeah? We’ll be okay. Maybe we’ll win and we don’t have to worry about anything.” You could tell he didn’t want to talk about it right now. And you agreed. This should be a moment about the both of you being together not about the possibility of no tomorrow.
Changing the subject, you swallowed thickly. “I love you. I want you to know that.”
“I do.” He teased gently. You shoved him lightly. He laughed. “I love you too.” His laughter made you grin. His response made you lean over gently to press a kiss to his cheek. 
“If this ends-”
“When.” He corrected.
You nodded slowly, “When this ends, I want to be with you forever.”
He hummed softly, “Now… forever’s a long time.” He teased. When you gasped and shoved him again, he laughed once more. And once more, you grinned at the sound of his laughter. After a few moments of gentle laughter, he responded, “I think… we will be together forever. No matter what the outcome is.”
“No matter what.” You repeated softly, leaning your head against his shoulder. He laid his head against yours. 
The world against the two of you. The possibility of the two of you dying now felt like a crazy thought with the reassurance that everything would be fine. The thought that you would spend the last moments of your life screaming for him as he ran through the forest trying to get to you seemed like something that could never happen.
And it wouldn’t. Right?

Treebark x trans! M! Reader
Treebark (Martyn and Ren) x Trans! Masc! Reader
Includes: non-sexual intimacy, cuddling, angst, character death, injuries, graphic violence and death (VERY GRAPHIC, please be aware), kinda jumbled and discombobulated at the end part because the reader is discombobulated, so the pov is kinda wack yknow??
Words: 1.9k
Requested by leijoncestuous on AO3- "cuddling/getting together/trying to find a quiet moment in between fights. i also love like "last night in dogwarts" type things - like realizing that things are going to come to an end soon, but just trying to hold each other just this one more night. if you wanna go more angsty, the final battle at dogwarts could be especially heartbreaking territory, especially if ren and martyn die before the reader, or maybe they die first and have to watch ren and martyn go on without them."
Tumblr media
Your eyes felt tired as you glanced around the room. There was a sigh from the corner of the room and your eyes went over to lock with Ren’s equally as tired ones. He was using a rag to clean his axe. The room was mostly quiet, save for the ramblings of Martyn on the other end of the room. He was talking about the final battle. It was happening tomorrow. Everyone still on the server knew it. It was terrifying, to be honest.
“I think we have a good chance of winning.” The yellow life was saying. You and Ren glanced at him as he said that. Two red lives and a yellow life while there was still a green life running around the server. The odds were not in your favor. “If we focus on bringing BigB down to his yellow life, then target the ones with the- What?” He noticed the second sigh escape your lips. “You don’t think we can win this together?”
“It’s not that, Martyn.” You said, avoiding his faint glowing eyes, “It’s just risky. I mean, you’re still yellow, but me and Ren are red. We’re so close to just-”
“Well, don’t think like that.” Ren huffed. “We gotta have faith.” He shot you a smile. “You’re one of the best fighters I know.”
You rolled your eyes with a faint smile hanging on your lips. “I know I’m a good fighter. I just know that there are others who are just as good.”
Martyn hummed softly, moving closer and sitting beside you on the bed. His arm wrapped around your shoulders, “You’ve gotta have faith. You trust your king, yeah?”
You nodded, “Of course I do.” Your eyes flitted over to Ren’s. “You know I’m by your side no matter what, my king.”
“I know. My faithful men.” He murmured, standing and stretching. He leaned his axe against the wall, climbing beside his boyfriends. He layed back against the bed, his hand resting on the small of Martyn’s back. “As long as you trust me, then you should know- everything will turn out fine, dear.”
You nodded again, slower. You swallowed thickly, “I trust you fully. Both of you.” You added, glancing between them. “I just- it’s scary thinking about the final battle. What if… What if there’s only one winner allowed to live?”
The room fell silent. There was always a chance. In fact, the rules were clear that only one winner was allowed to leave the games. The three of you had avoided talking about it so far. But, with the end of the games in sight, it was hard to ignore that death was far more than expected.
“It won’t come to that.” Ren said clearly, sitting up in the bed for a moment. His hand left Martyn’s back and gripped your hands, “I will not let you die.” His eyes glanced at Martyn's, “Neither of you.”
You nodded softly, “Yeah… Yeah, it was stupid, sorry.”
“Don’t apologize, it’s a valid fear.” Martyn said quietly. His thumb moved against your shoulder. “Why don’t we just go to sleep? Take this off,” He murmured, snagging his thumb under your binder, “and we can fall asleep together.” Ren nodded in agreement, lying back on the bed again, releasing your hands. You hummed quietly, standing from the bed.
Once your binder was taken off and set to the side, you climbed back into the bed, in between Ren and Martyn. While usually, Martyn was in the middle, the two could tell you needed the comfort tonight. Their arms both surrounded you and you let out a breath as you felt the comfort of their weight leaning against you.
“If anything happens tomorrow-”
Ren cut you off, leaning forward and pressing a kiss against your cheek. His facial hair scratched your cheek softly. “We don’t have to think about that, dearest. Just go to sleep. Everything will be fine.” His words didn’t feel convincing. 
Regardless, you stayed quiet, eyes closing as you pulled them closer to you. “I love you.” You whispered into the night. It took a few seconds for them to respond, softly and quietly. 
Tumblr media
It was chaos. Shouts came from every direction. Your eyes scanned the battlefield, shooting arrows towards everyone on the opposite team. You could hear the king battling with Martyn on the other end of Renchanting. The battle was fierce. Patches of lava were scattered along the ground, while arrows descended from the skies in mad quantities.
You shot another arrow, hearing the yelp of pain from Impulse as you shot him. You gasped harshly at the feeling of pain shooting up your leg as an arrow impaled itself in your shin. Pure chaos in every direction. You could barely tell who was on your side and who was the invading party. 
A strained noise left your lips as you heaved yourself behind a tower of blocks. Your hand pressed onto where the arrow had embedded. Tears burned behind your eyes as you threw your head back against the stone, whimpering silently. Your hand grasped the arrow and you took a deep breath, biting on your shirt collar as you tugged it out harshly. A few tears slipped down your cheeks as you breathed out heavily, letting your shirt cancel out your scream. The shouts from around you silenced any noises you made.
A hand grasped your shoulder and you gasped, head spinning around to meet Martyn’s. His eyes held concern as he glanced at you before looking around. “It isn’t safe to sit here. Are you okay? Do you need-”
“I-I’m fine.” You said, breathing heavily. You closed your eyes for a moment before willing yourself to lean onto your leg. You stifled your yelp of pain. “I can do this.”
“I know you can, but I don’t want you getting killed.” He said, narrowing his eyes. “I won’t stop you if you really want to fight, though. The king is-” His ears flexed and he spun around, using his shield to deflect an oncoming arrow. “We need to keep moving, dearest.” You nodded, forcing yourself to your feet as you limped to the edge of the blocks. “Right, let’s go.”
He stood beside you, helping deflect arrows as you shot your own, aiming at the enemies. Your eyes darted around, landing on Grian and Scar, who were new to the battle. “The desert arrived.” You muttered, horror in your tone as the pair immediately started battling. Your eyes scanned the battlefield, landing on Ren, who was aiming for Scar. When Scar was hit with his arrow, he spun around, returning blows to the king with his blade. “Ren!” 
Your voice was hoarse as you shot an arrow towards Scar, narrowly missing his skin as he followed Ren. Desperate to protect the king, you made your way over, shooting arrow after arrow towards the desert man. His deranged gaze never left Ren’s as he rushed after him. Even as a few of your arrows embedded into his skin, Scar never looked away from his target. Fear sparked in your chest, larger than it ever had before. 
You watched, completely helpless as Ren was poisoned by a pufferfish. You watched, completely helpless as a golem attacked him. You screamed, completely helpless as Scar’s sword thrust into Ren’s chest. From the distance, you could hear a similar scream from Martyn as he fought with Grian, trying to get to Scar for revenge. Your heart seemed to tear from your chest as you watched Ren’s mouth splutter with blood. Your chest seized as another heart-wrenching scream left your lips as Scar pulled his blade from his chest. Ren fell to the floor, spluttering in his own innards, eyes glazing over. 
“The Red King has fallen!” Scar announced triumphantly, his eyes leaving the body and narrowing in on his next target. “Go for the hand!” You watched as Martyn moved through the battlefield, attacking Scar with his sword. An arrow flew from Scar’s bow and hit Martyn in the stomach. The adrenaline kept him upright as he slashed his way to fighting Scar head-on.
Your hands moved too slowly. You couldn’t comprehend what had even happened until it was too late. Another arrow was released, hitting Martyn directly in the chest. The wound, too fatal to even run on adrenaline, caused him to double over, falling backwards onto the dirt. You screamed again, voice hoarse as you watched him bleed out. His chest wasn’t moving. You were horrified. Pure, unadulterated pain and terror seized your voice. 
You reached for an arrow, only to find the quiver empty. You breathed heavily, both from physical and mental strain. You could barely feel the pain in your leg anymore as you pulled out your sword. Your gaze landed on Scar. He had done this. He had destroyed the two people you were fighting for. He had killed Martyn and Ren. 
You staggered forward, eyes locked onto the greyed man. His ruby coloured eyes shone in amusement as they glanced your way. Grian stepped forward, eyes narrowed, sword in hand. Scar’s hand went up, stopping him. 
“You’re brave.” Scar said, his sword in hand as he stepped forward to face you.
Your eyes shone with pain and sparkled with tears. A ragged breath left your lips. “You killed them. Without mercy.”
“Yes, well,” He said, nodding his head slightly and humming, “Sometimes that’s just what needs to happen. The Red King… kinda of a silly name, isn’t it? I mean, he was the king of what, exactly? Dogwarts? Renchanting? Please, like that’s anything to flaunt about.”
Your breathing was hurried. Not only had he brutally slayed your king, he had the nerve to- to mock him? “Don’t. Do not. You have no right to speak of him that way. You- You’re a monster.”
Scar’s eyes sparkled and he smirked, stepping even closer. Your sword rose. He didn’t seem afraid, staring down the end of your blade with something akin to amusement. “A monster? That’s a pretty big claim, don't‘cha think?” He stepped forward again. Your blade was pressing into his skin. One move and you could kill him, avenge your lovers. Avenge Dogwarts. You heard Grian mumble Scar’s name in warning, eyeing the situation carefully. Your eyes never left the man in front of you. The one who took everything from you. “You never could have won. You know that. It was a losing battle from the beginning.”
Your breath stopped. Everything seemed to stop. You felt… numb. Your eyes flickered down. The end of a diamond sword stuck out of your stomach. You staggered forward as the sword was removed. Scar’s eyes were amused as he glanced at the person who had stabbed you.
“Well, that’s that. Thanks, BDubs.” 
You fell to your knees. Your eyes welled with tears, landing on the bodies of your fallen lovers. You had… failed. They were dead and you didn’t do anything to stop it, to avenge them. Your breathing quickened as you felt an electrifying tingle throughout your body.
Then heat. Everything felt hot, searing hot. You whimpered as the fire of a thousand suns burned from your stab wound. You landed on the ground, face-first. The pain came after. Pain you had never felt before, searing through your body. You coughed, choking on blood despite facing the ground. A foot poked at your arm, flipping you over and the choking got worse. 
Scar squatted beside you, humming, “You could’ve walked away. Regrouped, gotten stronger. Then you may have stood even a little bit of a chance.” He stood up, gesturing for Grian and BDubs to follow him. “Shame.”
They left. You were alone. Choking on blood and feeling every single fear and every bit of pain. Feeling your life drain from your body.

Pairing: Tangotek x Trans! Male! Reader
Includes: ddvau (no spoilers tho; could be considered a modern au?), overthinking, frustration, crying over something “stupid” (not that its stupid), reassurance, mentions of taking T and the side-effects
Words: 747 (sorry its short! I thought a sweet, cute one would be a nice change)
A/N: i love me some tango :> idk why I like writing about tango in his ddvau form, he’s just so silly i love him
Tumblr media
“I’m home!” He called into his apartment, humming to himself as he used his foot to close the door. When he didn’t hear a response, he paused in his motion of taking off his shoes. “Sweetheart?” No response again. He huffed, tugging off his shoes and placing them to the side before trekking deeper into the apartment. 
He peered into the kitchen and living room as he passed by, no sign of you. The bathroom door was open and the guest bedroom was empty as well. He finally peeked into the master bedroom, spotting you sitting on the edge of the bed. “Hey, you alright?” Tango murmured softly. The flames on his head flickered with his growing concern. 
He watched as your arm came up, scrubbing at your cheek roughly before spinning around with a fake smile. “Oh, hey, I didn't hear you come in. How was your day?”
His brows furrowed as he walked closer, “My day was fine. Normal. How was yours?” He moved to sit beside you, frowning. “Are you crying?”
You shook your head, “What? No, no, I- I’m fine.”
Tango huffed softly, bumping his shoulder with yours, “Now, I may be a bit of an airhead, but I know when my boyfriend is crying. What’s wrong? Anything I can do to help?”
“It's so stupid.” You cried softly, letting tears well in your eyes. “I’m being stupid. I’m sorry.”
“Hey, hey, no, no, no.” He cooed softly, leaning over to cup your cheek softly. “It can’t be stupid if you’re crying.”
You whimpered softly before reaching under the bed and pulling out a hastily wrapped present. “My boss’s birthday is tomorrow.” You explained.
“Well, it’s nice of you to get her a gift. What’s wrong?”
“Well- Well, I wanted to get her something to thank her because she’s been my best boss yet and she’s the reason me and you met!” You said, shaking the box lightly. “But, I learned last night that her favorite color is orange and her least favorite color is green!” 
Confusion spread across his face and his brows furrowed. “And what you got her was green?”
“No! Can’t you see it?” You cried. You shook the box. He looked at it again. Realization dawned on him. You glanced at him and saw this realization. “You’re laughing at me! I told you it was stupid!” 
He chuckled softly, shaking his head, “No, no, it’s not stupid.” He took the box from you. It was wrapped with green wrapping paper with large ‘happy birthday!’s written all over it. “We can re-wrap it, hun. Do we have different wrapping paper?” 
You shook your head, “No. We don’t! That’s why it's so bad.” You sniffled, letting tears slip from your eyes. “I’m overreacting aren’t I? I’m being emotional. I’m so stupid.”
“No one said you’re overreacting.” He said softly. He pulled on the wrapping paper and the tape tugged at the paper. “Are you going to get upset if I pull this off?” When you shook your head sadly, he tugged the green wrapping paper off completely, leaving the brown box underneath bare. “Why don’t you go wash your face and we can go get some orange wrapping paper from the store down the street?”
You stared at him before your eyes watered again, “You’re being too nice to me. I don’t deserve this. It's a stupid thing to cry about.”
Tango sighed softly, leaning over to lean against you, “It’s not stupid. Your hormones are a bit weird right now since you’ve started T. It’s not your fault. And I don’t think anything you get upset about is stupid. Ever. No matter what.” He replied with a toothy smile. 
Despite your tears, you chuckled. “You’re so silly.” 
“Darlin’, you knew that when you moved in with me.” He teased, bumping your shoulder once more before slapping his hands on his thighs and getting up from the bed. “Go clean up. It’ll be alright. We can head to the store when you’re done.”
You stayed seated for a moment longer before taking a deep breath and standing up. You reached over, pulling Tango into a hug. “Thank you.” You murmured into his neck. His arms wrapped around you and you could feel his head pressing into your hair.
“Mhm. I’ll always be there for you. No matter what your brain is telling you.” He said quietly, pressing a soft kiss to your head. “I love you.”
“I love you too.”

Back Stabber
Request or Prompt: (by @walkingtallyhallreference on ao3) “ can i request etho or scott x reader? reader is transfem, last life for scott, and limited life for etho ! thanks!! <3”
Pairing: Last Life! Scott x gn! Reader
Includes: Graphic descriptions of violence, graphic death, respawn mechanics, boogeyman, platonic/ambiguous relationship, angst, betrayal, the word “vomit” used once, slightly OOC Scott (sorry)
Words: 1.4k
A/N: I don't write femme readers, so I went with gn instead! Hope you don't mind <33
Tumblr media
When the words echoed in your mind, you felt sick. Vomit threatened to escape your throat as bile rose. You trembled slightly, only enough for yourself to feel it. You took a deep breath, steadying yourself as you climbed the steps into the Scottage. You felt disgusted and angry. Why were you chosen? Why did you have to be the Boogeyman?
It was like a scene from a horror movie as your friends- your alliance- stood beside you, talking about the plans they had today, while your brain was locked onto the thought that you had to kill someone. Would you have the chance to venture out and find another lifer, or would you be forced to watch the life escape your friend's eyes? It would be fun, at least. A challenge.
You froze, foot on the verge of raising to another step. Fun? It would be fun to kill someone? The Boogeyman Curse was already getting to your head, it seemed. You could practically feel the bloodlust clouding in the back of your head, begging for the feeling of blood on your hands, sticky and thick.
You closed your eyes, forcing back the thoughts of carnage as you forced yourself to finish climbing the steps, emerging from the Scottage and facing your allies with a shaky smile. Despite the shakiness, neither of them questioned your apprehension, throwing you a look as they worked on their own projects.
Pearl sent you a toothy grin as she tightened her backpack around her, “Hey! I’m heading out to gather some resources. Be careful for the boogey kill.” She called, heading towards the ladder on the side of the fence. You spared her a nod, wishing her luck on her journey before turning to the other member of the team. Scott hummed softly as he worked on the garden, pulling out weeds from beside the carrots and wheat.
He seemed to feel eyes on him because he glanced up, sending you a smile, “Morning. Are you ready to start your day?” He asked with a huff, sitting up and walking towards you, shaking a carrot at you by the green stalk. “You said you’d help me with the garden.”
Right. The garden. You had forgotten you had promised that last night before you all went to bed. It seemed like such a long time ago. Would you be able to get out of doing the farming by telling him you had other plans? But what other plans would you have? The thought was slightly absurd as your brain racked through the different excuses you had stored away.
“You are not planning on leaving me on my lonesome, are you?” Scott asked, narrowing his eyes as you cycled through ways to abandon him. “Hey, we had a deal.” A joking smirk appeared on his lips, “Unless you’re the boogey?” Your breath caught in your chest and you avoided his eyes. His brows furrowed as his smirk fell. “Are you?”
You coughed, avoiding his eyes and shaking your head, “No, no, of course not. I can- I can help you.” Scott nodded slowly, as if he didn’t fully believe you.  Regardless, he tossed you a hoe and gestured to the clearing.
“I’m setting it up there. I have a few buckets in that chest over there.” He mentioned. He walked over to the patch, kneeling against the dirt again and hoeing the ground. You took a deep breath, mentally counting down the minutes until you could be free of your ally and head off into the world to finish what you had to do.
Tumblr media
Compartmentalising the ideals of the Curse was harder than you thought. Every time you looked at Scott, your bloodlust rose. It got more difficult to keep it under wraps. You wanted to head out and find someone to kill. The pressure in your head was getting worse. You wanted to be free of this stupid Curse. You just couldn’t get away. First it was the gardening, then it was the skeleton farm. There was nothing that would let you leave the compounds of this base. The want- no, the need for death was getting to your head. You couldn’t even look at Scott without imagining how his blood would pool onto the ground, coating everything in a sticky red substance-
You shivered. You took a deep breath. The plagued thoughts drifted to the back of your mind. But you knew it was only a matter of time before you went crazy with these thoughts. It made you unbelievably guilty, knowing that you had this curse and you wanted to hurt the people you cared about. You felt physical pain in your chest whenever you thought about anything to do with death.There was a second, according to the communicators. It made you feel horrible when you saw the chat. That the other boogeyman had striked and won the war raging inside them.
“Hey, so, I was wondering-” The voice made you jump. You spun around, seeing Scott standing there with his arms raised in mock defense. “Woah, I didn’t mean to scare you. What are- What are you doing?”
You looked at your hands, where his gaze was focused. Your sword was in your hand. Your other hand had been gliding against the length of it. You jumped again, dropping the blade. Scott blinked in surprise, glancing between you and your sword. “Are you okay?”
You swallowed thickly, “Yeah, I- uh, Yeah.”
He stared at you for another moment before sighing. “You’re a boogey, aren’t you? Don’t lie to me.”
“I- No, I’m not.” You insisted. He scoffed.
“Then why are you acting this way?”
You grappled for an answer. When you found no excuse you huffed, “You- I can’t. I don’t want to do it.”
He was quiet for a moment, nodding slowly. “I know. You don’t want to hurt anyone.”
“I don’t. But at the same time, I do. It hurts. I feel like I need to see them bleed. I need to hurt something. But I- I’m scared.” Scott didn’t respond. His brain was rushing, it seemed. His eyes scanned over the situation, over you and your sword on the ground.
“I can help you.” He said. “We can go up to Scar’s house, get him. The thoughts would stop, right?”
You stared at him. “You- You’d be willing to do that?”
He nodded, “You’re my friend. I want to be able to help you.” He turned, digging through a chest. “The sun is about to set, but we can-”
You moved without really meaning to. The lack of concentration on his part caused something to snap inside you. Your arm swung down, picking up your sword. You stabbed forward, plunging into his back. The blood trickled into the ground, coating the stone beneath him. You could hear his breath fade as the sword was retracted. It clattered to the ground as he fell. His body dispersed into a puff of smoke. His items fell to the ground. Not too far away, you heard him respawn in his bed, fast asleep as he recuperated. 
The door slammed open before you could even focus on it. The footsteps that were quick stopped immediately after the door opened. “You- You killed him?!”
Your eyes flitted over to Pearl only to immediately look back down at the scene in front of you. As your mind became less frenzied and chaotic, you realized what you had done. Your hands shook as you held them up to your face, backing up and shaking your head.
“What- I didn’t- No, he was trying to help me. I just- Why did I-?” Your words came out randomly, seemingly nonsense to Pearl. She stared at you in shock. You fell backwards, leaning against the wall. Relief fluttered through you as your mind cleared from the haze of murder.
Pearl looked at you, “It was a boogey kill, wasn’t it? Why didn’t you tell us? We could have helped you.” 
“I did tell him. We were on our way to Scar’s.” You murmured. She blinked at you in surprise.
“Then why did you kill Scott?” You leaned your head back to stare at her, “I don’t know. It just… felt right.” Despite the overwhelming want to feel remorse for your actions, you simply felt peace. The urge to kill had faded and you didn’t feel bad in the slightest for killing your ally.

Definition: Jaundiced (adjective): affected by bitterness, resentment, or envy
Tumblr media
You hummed as you walked through the world. There was a smile on your face as you found yourself heading towards Cub’s lab. You opened the door, getting met with an almost blinding amount of sterile white light. No matter how many times you walked through here, the lights always managed to hurt your head and eyes.
You squinted softly as you walked through the building, peaking into random rooms in hopes of finding your boyfriend in one of them. You frowned when you did find him, taking a long swig from a beaker with a bright blue liquid.
“I thought we agreed no more testing things on yourself?” You questioned, opening the door and stepping in. He glanced at you with a shrug.
“We did, but this shouldn’t be harmful.” He muttered. He set down the beaker, flipping a switch under his desk. The lights dimmed slightly. 
Your brows furrowed, “Is that new?”
“Yeah. You said the other lights were too bright for you.”
You grinned appreciatively, “Yeah, they were. Thank you.” You walked over, stealing his rolling chair and sitting down, pulling your knees up on the seat. “It doesn’t interrupt your work?”
He didn’t respond. His eyes looked towards a new part of his lab that you had never noticed before. A mirror. You peered at him softly, staring at his reaction as he seemed to frown slightly, his brows knitting together as he pulled out a pen, writing in one of his many notebooks.
“What’s that for?” You questioned softly.
Cub blinked, glancing at you, “What? The mirror?” You nodded. “Uh, just some experiments I’m working on.”
“What are they?”
He grimaced slightly, “Just something that changes my appearance slightly.”
You nodded, spinning the chair slightly, “Why would you want to do that?”
He sighed softly, turning towards you and leaning against his desk. “You ask a lot of questions.”
“I know. You said I was allowed to ask you whatever I wanted, though.”
“I did say that, didn’t I?” He chuckled lightly, taking off his glasses to wipe the lenses. “Just something I wanted to work on. No specific reason.”
You nodded softly, humming. You watched as he turned back to his work, adding something to the potion. He mixed it together before taking another swig of it. “That doesn’t seem safe. Are you sure you know what you’re doing?”
He used the mirror to look back at you with a raised eyebrow, “This is my job, sweetheart. I know what I’m doing.” You shrugged, watching as he looked at himself in the mirror. His mouth tilted into a frown. You watched him as his eyes trailed over his body.
You frowned as he took a deep breath and turned back to his desk. He leaned against it, eying the beaker. “Are you alright?” You asked softly, peering at him.
“It's just not working. I’m fine.”
You hummed, “You said you were working on something to change your appearance?” He nodded. “How long are you planning on making the effects?” Cub paused, glancing at you for a moment before looking back at his desk. He opened a drawer, searching for something. You frowned, “Are you ignoring my question because you don’t know orrrr?”
“Forever.” He muttered.
You blinked in surprise. “Forever?” You questioned. “Void’s sake, Cub, why would you want to change your appearance forever?” He was quiet, staring at the beaker for a moment. “Baby?” You stood up from your chair, walking over to him, pulling him to face you.
He huffed, “Just an experiment.”
“...Is this experiment of yours fueled by anything?”
Cub was quiet for a moment, avoiding your gaze. “I don’t want you to be embarrassed by me.”
You were taken aback. “Embarrassed? When have I ever been embarrassed by you? I think that’s impossible.”
“I mean, I look-”
“Okay, no, let me cut you off.” You said, brows knitting together as you cupped his face to make him look you in the eye, “You are literally so handsome. I will not stand for you talking about yourself in that way.”
“You have to say that.” He huffed, rolling his eyes. “I don’t like the way I look. I’m a bit… big.”
You scoffed, “I don’t have to say anything. I compliment you because I mean it. You are so handsome. And who cares if you’re a bit ‘big’.” You argued, putting air quotes around the word, “I like your size.”
“It’s embarrassing.” 
“For who?” 
Cub sighed, “You see me through rose-coloured glasses. Your opinion of me is skewed by your affection.”
You huffed, “Cub, darling, you see yourself through your own jaundiced eyes! My opinion of you is not skewed. I’ve never found you unattractive, even when we had just met. You don’t view yourself the way I view you.”
He was quiet for a moment. “How do you see me like that?” He asked quietly.
Your heart just about broke. “How do you not?” You murmured, leaning over to caress his cheek lightly. “Sweetie, I understand that, sometimes, it's hard to see how amazing you are. I know, though, that you are so, so amazing. You’re the smartest person I know and I know I’m slightly biased, but you are my favorite person.” You said. “I wish you could see how much I absolutely adore you. In every way.” He was quiet, leaning into the hand on his cheek. His eyes scanned your face, looking for any sign of dishonesty. “I love you. Please, talk to me whenever you feel this way. I don’t want you to suffer quietly.”
“You… You’re amazing.” He murmured softly. You gave him a soft smile, leaning over and wrapping your arms around him.
“And you are so handsome. I love you so much.”
“I love you, too. Thank you.”

👉👈 may I.. request for a fic of cub x gn! reader.
Pairing: Cubfan135 x Gn! Reader
Includes: fluff, respawn mechanics (see my nav page if you’re interested), brief panic, brief mention of death
Words: 739
A/N: I ADORE Cub. I’m planning on bingeing his s10 HC this weekend (or whenever I get a break from school lmao)
Tumblr media
The last thing you remembered was falling from the sky. A curdling scream left your lips that you could barely hear over the sound of the air around you and you closed your eyes tightly as the ground came rushing towards you. Then, it was darkness. Despite the seemingly god-tier armour you had protecting you, the force of hitting the ground killed you instantly. Not even pain was felt as everything went silent.
When your eyes opened again, you shot up from the bed in panic. A hand came in contact with your arm as your breathing quickened rapidly. Your eyes were wide as you glanced around, using your hands to pat your body desperately.
“Hey, hey, you’re okay! You’re okay.” Your eyes shot to the side as your brain registered the words. Slowly but surely, your breath returned to normal. The man at your side nodded encouragingly with you as you began to breathe. “Yeah? You’re alright?”
You nodded slowly, glancing at your surroundings. Your base. Memories flooded back to you. “I… fell?”
Cub nodded slowly, “Yeah. From quite aways up.” He mused. He leaned back in his chair. “You were out for like an hour.”
“How did I fall? I had my elytra.” You muttered to yourself, directing your vision back towards Cub. He shrugged as his eyes ran over you. 
“I dunno. I wasn’t there. I just came over after I saw the alert.” He said. “How do you feel?”
“Panicked? Tired.” You admitted. He nodded slowly as if storing the information in his brain. “Sore, but also slightly numb.” You focused on what your body was telling you before furrowing your brows. “There’s a pain on my back. But I remember falling face-first.”
Cub hummed, gesturing for you to turn. You followed his instructions and he placed a hand on your back. You hissed as the pain flared from his touch. “Here?” You nodded as he gently moved his hand across where it hurt. “Seems like where your wings were attached. Maybe your elytra broke while you were in the air.” 
You thought about it. When was the last time you had checked the durability of your wings? He nodded seeing the look on your face, “I guess the answer is yes?” He mused. 
You frowned, “I was doing so good at making sure everything was good, too!” You complained slightly. You huffed softly as you swung your legs off the side of the bed.
“Woah, where do you think you're going?” Cub said, narrowing his eyes.
You blinked in surprise at the change of his tone. “To go and find myself? I had some really good armour, Cub.”
“Nuh-uh. You need time to recuperate.” He said, pushing you back gently.
“What? I’m fine, Cub, I just need to get my stuff-”
“Pearl is getting it.” He said, giving you a stern look. “Look, for my own sanity, lay back and take a nap. Besides, it’ll help me with my research into the respawn system.”
You huffed, knowing he was making it up as to get you to stay put. “You promise Pearl is getting it?” He gave you a confident nod. You were quiet for another moment before smiling slyly, “Will you stay with me?”
“Yeah, sure.” He said absently. You blinked in surprise. “Wait, what was that last question?”
You laughed, “Stay with me. Take a nap with me. Void knows you probably need it even more than me.”
Cub hesitated for a moment, eying the bed for a moment before sighing, “Oh, why not?” Excitedly, you slid over in the bed, patting the edge excitedly for him. He sighed as he sat down beside you. “I’m not staying all night.”
You glanced out the window, noticing the sun was, in fact, setting. “If you insist.” He laid down beside you, awkwardly staring up at the ceiling. You rolled your eyes, nudging him with your shoulder.
“I’m giving you your space!” 
“I don’t need that much space, Cub.” You moved into a comfortable position and nodded for Cub to do the same. After a moment of hesitance, he moved into a more comfortable position. 
“There? Happy?”
You grinned, leaning your head over towards him. “Very.” He gave a lighthearted scoff in return. 
When you woke up the next morning, he wasn’t there, but there was a note in place. You grinned when you read that he had, in fact, stayed the entire night.
