"I SEE YOUR PRETTY EYES AT MINE, MISTER~"

Sypnosis: Dazai just cant keep his eyes to himself when a colleuge of his is looking so darn pretty!

Dazai x fem! reader

Genre: suggestive, romance

Warnings: reader is sort of cheeky, suggestive as hell, implied alcoholism, author gave the reader on what attire shes wearing.

A/N FINALLY A REQUEST AFTER SO FUCKIN LONG

The agency had decided to hold another party in celebration of a huge deal which would help the agency .

And of course you were invited, almost everyone was. You decided to look extra pretty today because why not, not because of others but for yourself.

You had picked out a extravagant ebony coated frock which covered all the way up to your legs and ended with glistening white layers of laces.

The party was at 8 o clock, you had time plus what would you do getting there so early?

Gently tapping on the tubes of lipsticks you picked out a vermillion shade and smoothly applied the waxy substance on your lips. The colour suited the rose tied around your neck really well.

Finally adding some final touches you rushed out the door and walked along to the agency.

There were colourful lights and food everywhere, Atsushi teaching Kyouka how to make decorations, doctor Yosano taking a bit too much of wine, ranpo staring at powdered donuts... To think of it you remember him taking 5 of them sneakily one night and you wonder why hes so obsessed with them.

But one thing you could notice was a certain someones eyes on you... Dazai.

You walked up to atsushi and kyouka, talking to them and teaching them some tips and tricks to fit in with the agency.

You could feel at all times though, a certain pair of eyes glancing at you from time to time from the corner of the room.

"Excuse me, i will just fix my hair and come back" you politely end the conversation before walking towards the door and going outside.

Despite your heels clacking against the floor, you could feel another set of shoes following them.

"Dazai-san, may i know why i feel your eyes on my at all times?" you ask putting a perfect spot from the distance between your figure and the mans figure.

He chuckled.

"Bella, i must say your quite the smart one arent ya'?" osamu replies back with much cheekiness in his tone as yiu turned to him, he had a black tuxedo, a polished and refined one, it hugged his body quite tightly too.

You just sighed at his remark, he was a ladies man you knew but you have never seen the glint and love in his eyes on a girl ever before, it amde your stomach turn slightly in a good way, of course.

His teasing grin drops and turns into a more soothing smile as he walks over to you which makes you back towards the wall unsure whether to trsut him or not.

He lowers his head a bit to reach your face taking in all of it's features.

"Are you trying to woo me, dazai-san? It seems like it"

"Haaah, maybe. The thing is bella you just look so.." you expect him to give you some compliment like every boy does when they see a girl sitting pretty and all but instead he gently took a strand of your hair, took it to his lips and uttered every single quality and flaw about you, it was as if hes born to have a poets tongue with you being the muse.

"I just want to admire you all day, my darling. Its not lust nor a small crush, it isnt even close to love but something beyond the world and beyond the universe to attend to, i dont know i could drown in your eyes right now but i would prefer staring at them for an eternity as if its a gorgeous piece of art hung on a museum"

he said softly, oh god did this man made your heart drop down your stomach and melt into your intestines.

With each word he spoke through his charming voice, you could feel his breathe and hands going closer towards your sweating body and at last, he asked for your permission to which you only looked at him with a slight embroidery of embarrassment on your cheeks.

Dazai tenderly kissed your forehead but though it lasted short you wondered whether he tried to go for your lips instead because of the shift in his body.

"Oi, dazai and [Name] if your done with your cheesy af encounter than come back to the party! Presidents calling you two!"

Atlast after moments of intimate interaction which wasnt even intimate because of the silent yearn for something neither the two of you could preach. Both of you decided to go back to the party.

Later in the relationship you realised that your first kiss with this loverman was not the type of kiss those possessive men would do which would take your breathe away but more of a desperate one as if to reach out for something which one already got.

In the end nor dazai or you could just confess normally without making each other look like two pieces of magnificent artwork looking at each other.

A/N: i hate this more than dazai hates him self :(((((((( btw reader is wearing this dress

Xsoleil boys with Streamer!reader accidentally revealing their relationship on stream.

✧VER VERMILLION✧

Now you and Ver were dating for about 7 1/2 months now, you were a streamer like ver! You were also working in NIJISANJI EN with your own group as well.

You and Ver kept your relationship a secret in the internet quite afraid for the backlash you'd get, but your friends and co-workers do know about it and supported you both.

Ver is currently streaming while you were making snacks for the both of you, you didn't have any stream today so you were finishing some work today.

Ver and you were 95% careful most of the time, you do make slipups but everybody makes mistakes right? But seems like this one might be the mistake you both are trying to avoid:

You finished making the snack for you and Ver, now you were currently walking to the room.

You knocked on the door to signal to him that you were outside, waiting for him to mute before opening the door.

Unknown to you he didn't hear you knock so he didn't get the chance to mute-

"hey dear! I have your snacks-"

Ver turned around to you with a sheepish look at his face, sweat dropping as he pointed at the monitor. You looked at it and you swore your heart dropped as you read the chats.

You put the tray on a table before putting your hands on your face to cover it embarrassed. Ver excused himself before muting then looked at you.

"hey hey, look it alright look." Ver said bring you closer to him, rubbing your back trying to reassure you that it was alright.

You remove you hands from your face before slowly looking at the monitor and looked at the chats.

'EYO!'

'WAS THAT Y/N-SAN'S VOICE?!'

'OMG VER AND Y/N ARE DATING????'

'WAHH CONGRATULATIONS!!!'

You smiled at the sweet chats they sent before looking at ver, he smiled and put a hand on your face before giving you a peck on the cheek.

"see I told you? Everything will be alright."

"Yeah your right Ver."

✧HEX HAYWIRE✧

Now, you and Hex weren't exactly hiding your relationship nor really loud with it. You and him were about to celebrate your 1 year anniversary after you finished streaming.

Hex was going through his phone while waiting for you to get finished with your stream. Few minutes later he decided to go to your stream to see what you were up to.

Meanwhile you and Kotoka were chatting about some things (they already knew about your relationship). Before Kotoka questioned about something that would shock your fandom:

"Oh! Oh! Also you and Hex were going to celebrate your 1 year anniversary right?"

"Oh thanks reminding me Koto, but yes we are after I finished the stream. We are actually going to the cafe where we had our first date!" You said while drinking the drink Hex gave you.

"Ohhh hope you two had a fine night then!....huh wait Y/n did you and Hex not tell your chats about your relationship?" Kotoka ask as she saw the way just blow up with dozens of questions.

"wait what? I could have sworn we told them." You said as you looked at you chat seeing alot of questions.

'WAUT?!?'

'HEX AND Y/N 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY???'

'WAIT SINCE WHEN??-'

'HAPPY 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY!!!'

You only smiled awkwardly as you read all the chats they are sending, before you caught Hex's question in the chat.

'Darling did we not announce it already?'

"heh I guess not Hex, but here you go chat at least you all know now!"

They were quite glad they know now.

✧DOPPIO DROPSCYTHE✧

You and Doppio were quite close (because y'all are dating ofc but they don't know that) ever since you debuted he wanted to already Collab with you! (A sweet boyfriend really)

Both your fandoms knew you were very close having a lot of collab and the cute interactions you guys do. Now some are having some suspicious that you two may seem more then 'friends'.

Now you were streaming while Doppio was running out an errand. You were playing some games which was horror (bad idea if you get scared easily but it's for content I suppose), you were trying to finish the level when a jumpscare suddenly happened and you screamed very very load and just as if it was que Doppio was done with his errand and heard.

He ran to your room-:

"BABE! ARE YOU ALRIGHT??!" Doppio shouted as he looked at you worried.

"Ah Doppio sorry for screaming. I was doing a horror." You said looking at him while rubbing your nape.

" 'phew' I thought something happened -" he said but then looked at your monitor seeing that yo were actually streaming. You noticed him staring at your monitor so you looked before also remembering you were actually streaming..

"oh-"

'DOPPIO?!'

'DID HE JUST CALL Y/N BABE??'

'SOMEONE CLIP THAT!'

'WAIT ARE THEY DATING??!'

Well looks like they now know. You and Doppio then explained your 8 month relationship to your chat.

You two managed to trend in Twitter for almost two weeks-

｡⁠*ﾟ⁠+｡⁠*ﾟ⁠+｡⁠*ﾟ⁠+｡⁠*ﾟ⁠+｡⁠*ﾟ⁠+｡⁠*ﾟ⁠+｡⁠*ﾟ⁠+｡⁠*ﾟ⁠+｡⁠*ﾟ⁠+｡⁠*ﾟ⁠+

A/n: Heyo! done with this one! Hope you enjoy it! (Sorry for any grammar mistakes and if it's short)

Rivals or so they thought

─═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═

➼ Pairing - Luca Kaneshiro x GN!Vtuber Reader

➼ Content - Established relationship, Playful rivalry, fluff & hopefully half correct translations (I know Japanese, a little bit of Swedish and the others I'm still a beginner in but I'm learning so if something isn't translated right, I apologize, I tried my best~! English translations will be included :3)

➼ Ft. Ike Eveland, Ver Vermillion, Vezalius Bandage, Enna Alouette, Mika Melatika, Nina Kosaka and Reimu Endou

➼ ⚠️ Please remember I only write for the personas you see on your screen. I do not and will not write for the people behind the models. Please also remember that behind the models there are very real people with very real emotions. Please be respectful towards our beloved Nijisanji EN livers and do your best to separate the real people from the persona reflected on your screen. Thank you so much and enjoy the story ⚠️

➼ Summary - You debuted in Nijisanji as another mob boss. You were known as Luca's rival in your lore. Behind the scenes, your lore couldn't be more wrong. And it all comes out during one stream... ─═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═──═

Today was the day you debuted, you sat at your desk going through your slide show, letting the viewers get to know you;

" As you know from my lore, I am another mob boss. " You said with a smile looking at your character reference sheet before looking over at the chat;

Chat: ChairKun223: Luca's rival right? What's that like YVT/N?

You couldn't help but smile at the question, adjusting yourself in the chair you hummed softly thinking about a good response,

" I admire him, he and I are polar opposites. He's always smiles. I know when to be serious when it counts. He views his work as play. " You said trying to sound bitter. The image of your golden retriever like lover popped into your head and you had to fight back a fond smile to stay in character for your debut.

You spent the next hour going through the rest of the slide show and talking to chat. Finally ending, your door flung open and your chair was spun around before you were grabbed up off the chair and spun around in a tight hug;

" YOU WERE SO POG BABE! " The one and only Luca Kaneshiro beamed hugging you tight and spinning you around. Your laughs echoed in the room hugging him back.

Despite being rivals in your lore, you were the blond mafia boss's lover and you had been with him long before you debuted, hell you've been together long before HIS debut. He adored you and you adored him. It was hard not to, his puppy like personality and his sense of humor. You two just clicked. Of course your friends and co workers knew about your relationship with Luca and they fully supported you, you hadn't made your relationship public so neither the Lucubs or your community knew about you and Luca.

" Thank you my love! I could hear you watching my stream in the living room. " You said with a cheeky smile, causing him to blush ever so lightly. He set you back down on the floor and he place a soft loving kiss on your cheek.

" I wish we didn't have to hide our relationship! The Lucubs would be so happy that we're together! " Luca whined and grasped your shoulders shaking you lightly.

" I know, me too but gotta make the lore seem real ya goof. " You replied holding onto his wrists as he shook you lightly as not to hurt you.

The next year was full of so many fun collabs with Luca and other streamers. You always had so much fun with the other NIJI EN members. Spending time with them both on streams and outside of streams. You remembered being a simple viewer at one point, watching the NIJI EN talents and wishing you could do what they do and be apart of their world (Little mermaid reference XD ANYWAYS-). And not long after Luca introduced you to Tazumi san, you were given an opportunity to audition and be apart of NIJI EN which you jumped at right away. When you were accepted, Luca was over the moon. He couldn't stop talking about it for days and he even helped you get a model commission and helped you write your lore.

There came a day when you organized a goose goose duck collab, wanting to do another collab with language switch ups, You invited Ike, Ver, Vezalius, Enna, Mika, Nina and Reimu and Luca wanted to tag along and watch the game in VC, you being the sucker you are, agreed to let him sit in. And of course you assigned each a language, You would be sticking with Japanese, Ike had Swedish, Ver had Korean, Zali had French, Enna had Chinese, Mika had Indonesian, Nina had Russian and Reimu was given Spanish. Since you had watched the other collab the language switch up was used in, you knew this was about to get chaotic but you were also incredibly excited. Everything was set up and stream started;

" Alright~! Hello everyone! So as you can see, we're doing another goose goose duck stream with the language twist, so would everyone like to introduce themselves in the languages they were given? " You asked with a smile, Ver deciding to start out;

" Hi everyone, my name is Ver Vermillion, I'm speaking in Korean! 안녕하세요 여러분! 내 이름은 Ver Vermillion, 저는 한국어로 말하고 있습니다! (Hi everyone, my name is Ver Vermillion, I'm speaking in Korean!) "

Ike jumped in straight after Ver,

"Hello everyone, I am Ike Eveland, a Virtual Novelist from Nijisanji EN and part of Luxiem! And one more time, I am talking Swedish. Hej alla, jag är Ike Eveland, a virtuell romanförfattare från Nijisanji EN och en del av Luxiem! Och en gång till, jag är talar Svenska. (Hello everyone, I am Ike Eveland, a virtual novelist from Nijisanji EN and part of Luxiem! And one more time, I am talking Swedish.) "

Zali followed suit with his introduction,

" Hi, hi everyone! My name is Vezalius Bandgae or Zali and today I am speaking French! Salut, Salut tout le monde~! Mon nom est Vezalius Bandage ou Zali et aujourd’hui Je suis parlant français! (Hi, Hi everyone! My name is Vezalius Bandage or Zali and today I am speaking French!) "

Next was Nina,

" Hello, my name is Nina Kosaka. Russaian will be my language. Привет, Меня зовут Nina Kosaka. Русский будет быть мой язык ( Hello, my name is Nina Kosaka. Russian will be my language.) "

Then came Mika,

" My name is Mika Melatika. I speak Indonesian. Nama saya Mika Melatika. Saya berbicara Indonesia (My name is Mika Melatika. I speak Indonesian.) "

Enna chimed in,

" Hello, my name is Enna Alouette. I speak Mandarin Chinese. 你好, 我叫 Enna Alouette. 我说话 普通话 中文. (Hello, my name is Enna Alouette. I speak Mandarin Chinese.) "

Now Reimu jumped in,

" Hello my name is Reimu Endou~! I have been chosen to speak Spanish. Hola mi nombre es Reimu Endou~! He sido elegido para hablar español. (Hello my name is Reimu Endou~! I have been chosen to speak Spanish.) "

And finally you gave your introduction,

" Good morning everyone~! My name is YVT/N! I speak Japanese for this collaboration~! おはようございます 皆さん~! 私の名前は YVT/N! 私は日本語を話します 対して これ コラボ~! (Good morning everyone~! My name is YVT/N! I speak Japanese for this collaboration~!) "

And of course no line of introductions would be complete if Luca didn't chime in to introduce himself,

" HIIIIII GUYS! I'm Luca Kaneshiro! I am just gonna be spending some time in the VC while my game downloads and if it finishes before the collab is over, YVT/N said I could speak backwards so I'm not completely understood, POGGGGGGGGG!!! " He said happily causing the rest of the people in the collab to snicker at his enthusiasm.

" Right~! With introductions out of the way, let's get the first round started! Good luck everyone~! " You beamed as the game began.

And of course, as expected, it was complete chaos. There was zero understanding between anyone. You were walking around trying to find a task before stopping, seeing Enna and Nina having some sort of stand off but not understanding a word either woman was saying.

Within a few rounds, Luca finally was able to join into the fun. The new round started, You ran past Ver being chased yelling in Korean by Ike who was yelling in Swedish but of course you didn't understand what either of them were saying. Before running into Luca who was standing over a dead Enna,

" LUCA! 殺しましたか Enna!? (LUCA! Did you kill Enna?!) " You said backing away

" Tahw?! I nod't dnatsrednu tahw ruoy gniyas TVY/N! (What?! I don't understand what your saying YVT/N!) " Luca stammered out, barely able to get through a sentence.

Hearing Luca struggle at getting a sentence out backwards was enough to cause you to snicker,

" 体の上に立つ Luca! 他に誰が殺しただろう Enna?! (Your standing over a body Luca! Who else could have killed Enna?!) " You said quickly going to report Enna's body.

⚠️ EMERGENCY MEETING ⚠️

" 私は見つけた Luca 立っている Enna's 体! (I found Luca standing over Enna's body!) " You spoke out

" Nina jagade mig! (Nina was chasing me!) " Ike called out

" Мне показалось, что я вижу Ike убей кого-нибудь, чтобы я последовал за ним (I thought I saw Ike kill someone so I followed him) " Nina said trying to be heard over the wave of voices

You could see your chat going nuts over the complete chaos this collab was. No one could understand each other and communication was just dead in the water. As the round went on, people were voted out and in the end, the goose ended up winning and the goose turned out to be Ver. Back in the lobby, voices rung out and everyone was finally able to understand each other, everyone was laughing. Luca walked over to you and spoke,

" BABE! I TOLD YOU IT WASN'T ME THAT KILLED ENNA! " He yelled, faking being hurt

It took a second to realize what Luca had said but when it registered, you looked back to your chat.

Chat: Chairkun223: DID LUCA JUST CALL YVT/N BABE?! YVT/NSimp: OH MY GOD Luca'sJacket44: ARE THEY TOGETHER?! LucaxYVT/NOTP: AWWWH~!

Your jaw hit your desk and you couldn't help but nervous laugh,

" L...luca, we're still live. " you said, your eyes still glued on your chat

" What? What I say? " He asked before he looked at his own chat and realized his mistake.

Both chats were going wild with questions and people squealing over the fact that YVT/N and Luca were a couple. It took a few seconds before the others in the collab realized what happened since you and Luca had gone silent. The rest of the collab was filled with you and Luca trying to go the rest of the collab without looking at the chats, each time you ran into another person in the collab, you could only assume they were teasing you since you couldn't understand a word being said.

The end of the collab came, everyone said their goodbyes and you said goodbye to chat, Luca ran in and hugged you apologizing for outting the relationship during the collab and of course you reassured him that it was okay.

From then on, Luca made sure he was incredibly loving even in streams, he was shameless in letting chat know how amazing he thought you were and how much he loved you.

[summer-may]

18+. nsfw.

husband!bakugou feels that it was unfair how pretty you are. like how is he supposed to keep everyone away, when you look like a sparkling star that everyone surrounds like a moth to a flame.

you are sweet, kind, and so goddamn helpful. you help the old man cross the street, you go out of your way to volunteer at various shelters and if not, then donate. you once gave your favorite sandwich midst eating to kaminari just because he was hungry. like it was your absolute favorite but you still gave it away. can you be any more selfless?

so the only way he doesn't lose his mind is by fucking you senseless. by giving you so much pleasure that you let go and start demanding from him.

he starts slow, by always asking you what you want. it's slow and shy, but finally, you get bold and confident. the first time you tell him to eat your pussy and he is on his knees, baby.

as time passes you experiment. get bold. and start doing things you fantasized about.

another time, you tell him to lay down on the bed because now you are going to ride him, and hell yeah, he's all spread eagle before you finish the sentence.

the way he is naked, his cock leaking, red, and almost angry at not being used till he's spent. he's so close to crying at this point.

you look ethereal. there is no other word to describe you. he feels he's in some kind of other dimension. you crawl towards him wearing lingerie that should be banned because what the fuck?! it's see-through, your nipples protruding deliciously just waiting to be sucked and bit on. the lace covering your soft stomach. god. the path downwards just as maddening.

the way he knows you're sans panties but the delicate lace coming just below your beautiful pussy is making him insane. oh and the fact that he can't touch you is torture. absolute third degree.

"baby, can you please, please come closer," he begs, looking at you with his eyes low and lips swollen from biting them. "i can't handle it anymore, pretty girl."

you smile and coo at him, his cock leaking even more at your voice, your hand finally touches his thighs, hands running up and down and moving towards his beautiful cock. "you have such a beautiful cock, honey." the jerk his body gave when you swiped your thumb across his head spreading the precum, was visceral. "don't worry baby, i know what you need."

you bent your head and licked his precum, looking at his vermillion eyes as you sucked his cock down to the hilt. his sparse hair brushing your nose as you went bobbed your head.

the way his hips buck should be illegal, even with his hands tied he made sure you choke on his dick. the barely there smile on your face as you gag on him was enough for him to spurt down your throat. but along with you humming in pleasure was end game for him.

he's spent. his heavy breathing is the only thing heard in the quiet of the night. he looks down to see you licking his head and feels it in his heart as well as his dick. like, come on.

"baby you're going to kill me, stop it." his talk didn't match his words with how he was thrusting up toward your smirking mouth. red eyes looking at how swollen your lips were, and your glowing face, and thinking about how perfect you were.

you slittered upwards and untie his hands, lips centimeters away and whisper, "you can touch me now, dy-na-mite." each syllable of his name accompanied by a nip on his swollen lips.

"you are so fucking gorgeous, baby." his big hands pawn at your bare ass, fingers slowly brushing down to your leaking hole. "you honestly put the murderous in my name to test."

his fingers gentle, completely different to his passionate almost angry words. the words coming out his mouth were making you wetter, you weren't sure how that was even possible. your lips slanted on his, tongue fucking in tandem to his fingers as he scissored in and out of your pussy.

"c'mon, baby, gimme one, yeah," he panted, his other hand holding your jaw, "yeah, just like that beautiful, just like that, cmon, yeah, cum for me, gorgeous, cum on my fingers, just like that," his words and fingers were enough to make you moan out his name, and let yourself go and groan out his name, "kat- suki"

"you can make me cum just by speaking, 'suki."

his eyes sparkled in the shadows of your bedroom, "you say that, as if just looking at you doesn't make me cream my pants," his hands gave your ass a swat, "c'mon give a kiss, yeah,"

the smile you gave him was making his heart beat painfully in his chest, goddamn he was so in love with you it was not even funny and he wouldn't trade it for anything in this fucking world.

"you wanna ride me next time, sweetheart, i can see you're tired, huh?" his words were met with grateful eyes and a soft smile. he knew your every move. well, he is the love of your life and you loved your god dynamite.

"c'mon lay down," his smirk was ever-present, he picked up the cover on both of you, kissed your forehead, and murmured a soft, " 'night, sweetheart."

" 'night, 'suki." came your reply with a soft kiss to his chest.

HEY IT’S MERMAYYY

Sans: Atlantic bluefin tuna Grillby: Red halfmoon betta

Image descriptions below

[ID: Two pencil and marker illustrations.

First, Sans as a mermaid. He has a skeletal face, chest, and arms while having a fleshy neck, stomach, and fish tail. He's based on Atlantic bluefin tuna. It has small sharp fins, fat and muscular body shape, and blue stripes with yellow accenting. The fleshy areas look more like skin than scales. Sans' pose is confident, smiling and puffing out his chest somewhat, arms out to the side.

Second, Grillby as a mermaid. He's based on a halfmoon betta fish. His face and arms are covered in small soft scales. His tail is made of larger, circular scales. The sides are lined with exceptionally fluffy skirt-like fins. He's primarily a deep vermillion colour with shiny yellow accents. His pose is somewhat shy, he clasps his hands in front of his stomach & leans forward with a small smile.

Both are in spiral bound sketchbooks. The picture of Sans drawing is atop a rainbow set of markers, on a speckled grey table. End ID]

[changelingsandothernonsense]

Wips on Fridays.

And I seriously feel like it's Tuesday...where did the week go? Why are there earth tremors all the time? Why can't I just art more? idk.

Anyways tagged by @mareenavee and @thequeenofthewinter so thank you guys!!!

Going to drop this week's art and a snippet from something I finished on Sunday.

Art first!

At the stage where I can just use my own shit as references like the dork that I am.

More under the cut! That includes writing.

Because I like him so shhh.

And a cropped for the sensors line art. Ok Writing that relates in a way to all three of these arts..since they are all set within the same 6 months design-wise (sans guns and all that).

Why? Teldryn dressed in the armour he’d been wearing since he crawled out of that damn swamp, old netch leather he pulled off some bandit that tried to shoot him in the ass. He tied his scarf around his neck, stroking the faded vermillion fabric for a moment. Comfort, the only thing he has that provided it. As he slung his pack over his shoulder, something caught his eye. That damn Dwemer Coherer that he had apparently sold his life for. That curious little object just lay there on a shelf, one amongst many miscellaneous objects gathering dust in a storeroom. The thing was a marvel, used as a component on one of their brilliant machines… That sadistic old mer wouldn’t miss it? Would he? Why should he care? Teldryn snatched it from the shelf, quickly putting it in his pack. Fuck him, fuck all of them! He made his way towards the door and opened it into the cool evening air. He had so many things to do. So many reports to write, journals that Caius would want to look over. Every little sordid detail, every expense. He made his way to the shore, journal in hand, his leash that the Blades held him by. He opened it and began to write. - gave me the potion. It didn't cure me. But it did remove all apparent signs of the disease. Divayth Fyr said he didn't actually WANT to cure me, just remove the harmful features of the disease while preserving its virtues. Well, it worked. And now he is eager to test the potion on the other subjects in the Corprusarium. I must hurry back to report to…report to. He scribbled out what he had just written. Awful! Hurry? Why? What was the point of any of this? His skin began to itch again and he sighed. He ran a bandaged hand through his hair, felt the bare skin that dotted his scalp. Bare scalp? He pulled his looking glass out of his pack and assessed the damage. A long scar stretched across his right cheek, cutting into the old tattoos that snaked across his face. He looked drained, pale. His long hair patchy, matted. He hated it! He pulled a dagger out of his boot and began slicing at the strands, hacking, slashing, the hair falling to the sand below. Golden mask, crimson robes. A cacophony of moans, a legion of writhing bodies. A beating heart. He dropped the dagger and fell to his knees. He screamed, burying his fists in the wet sand. Child of his flesh. SPEAK WITH US! He screamed again, throwing a clod of sand into the ocean. He grabbed his journal, tore out the page he’d just written and threw that into the ocean too. Fuck Caius Cosades! Fuck the Blades! Fuck Divayth Fyr and his weird fucking daughters! Fuck that other old man with the snobbish attitude! Fuck the Empire! Fuck the Emperor and fuck the leash that they held him by. A fire ignited in his hands, the journal he had meticulously kept since being dumped in Seyda Neen almost a year ago smouldered in his grip. He’d rather spend an eternity in the prisons below the Imperial City than spend another second serving the whims of those uncaring fucks! “FUCK!” He screamed! His voice, or what was left of it finally returning. Ashen and coarse, unfamiliar. He pounded the sand, punched it until exhaustion overtook him. He slumped over tears threatening to choke in vision. The blur was permanent, everything was out of focus. He couldn’t shake it, couldn’t focus. He punched the sand again before rising to his feet. No, he would not go back to Balmora, he was done with this guarshit! Let some other poor sod chase an ancient ashlander fairytale. He was done! They could think him dead for all he cared. He wasn’t entirely sure that he wasn’t. He’d head west, he didn’t particularly care where so long as he could be alone. His skin itched, ash and sinew clouded his vision.

[bowandcurtsey]

Hi hi hi!

Could you write a headcanon on how Mereoleona Vermillion reacted to when she heard Acier Silva died???

Hi sweetheart, I thought a lot about this request when I read it. I love it, but it's so sad. But i never thought about about Mereoleona in relations to Acier's death, so it was really intriguing to think about.

Thank you for requesting this!

Character: Mereoleona Vermillion, Acier Silva

tw: unchecked works, mentions of death.

When the news came to her, she was on a mission, she was still a magic knight back then, and she was celebrating her victorious mission. And then it came. The news. And the cup she was holding fell on the ground, the alcohol contents spilling on the ground.

She rushed home. She didn't really remember how fast she went, how long she took, how did she even got there. But she remembered looking at the funeral.

Acier's photo, she was smiling beautifully like the goddess she is and a coffin underneath it.

Everyone around was weeping, crying, grieving. And Nozel sat beside her coffin, his body slumped, his face pale and his eyes: soulless.

Mereo slowly walked towards the coffin, muttering under her breath, "it can't be."

And she saw it. Acier laying there. Seemingly peaceful but she was different. It wasn't the Acier she knew. The Acier she knew had a wide smile, and her eyes were bright and cheery. And she always, ALWAYS greeted Mereo in her chirpy yet gentle voice.

But today was different. her eyes were closed, her lips weren't smiling and for the first time ever, she didn't greet Mereo.

There was no "mereo-chan~" today.

Mereo always grumbled that calling her "mereo-chan" was so girly and that she was not a young girl anymore whenever Acier did that. But today she was begging to hear it. What would she give to hear Acier call her "mereo-chan" again.

She sat at Acier's funeral till the end. Not uttering a word, but she sat there and stared into space.

She thought all her fond memories of Acier. How Acier-nee san always took care of her, listened to her troubles, stood up for her whenever she got into trouble and their missions together. They had never ending memories together.

Growing up with 2 younger brothers, Acier was the sister she never had. Being the eldest in the prestigious Vermillion family, there was a lot of stress on Mereo. Stress to be a better example to her siblings, stress to bring pride to the family name. And Acier was her only best friend, who was always by her side.

Over the next few days, Mereo thought about how she has never won Acier in a fight. And Mereo was always training hard in order to win her someday. Acier was her ultimate rival and now, she's gone.

Mereo has never felt so empty for very long. Her sister, best friend and rival was gone to some ridiculous demon curse. She wanted revenge, but if Acier couldn't even beat them, how could she? She had to be stronger.

And Mereo got up, she packed her bags, dropped a letter at the wizard king's office, and she left.

The wizard king came into his office that morning and found a letter on his desk: Letter of resignation.

Mereo vowed to be stronger and she promised revenge for Acier Silva.

Skeleton AU Names Pt. 2

This is just for other AU's that I'll be working on, as I'll mainly focus on the main 14 over these guys frequently. Enjoy.

Mobtale/Mafiatale -

To Note! I have no real explanation why the Mob/Mafia AU's have their names other than that they were cool and fitting. I uh,,, didn't have much thought beyond that,,,

Mobtale/Mafiatale Sans: Bullet Serrif

Mobtale/Mafiatale Papyrus: Ace Serrif

Mobswap/Mafiaswap Sans: Azure Serrif.

Mobswap/Mafiaswap Papyrus: Canary Serrif

Mobfell/Mafiafell Sans: Calibur Serrif

Mobfell/Mafiafell Papyrus: Vermillion Serrif

Swapfell Red Sans: Noir Serrif

Swapfell Red Papyrus: Smokes Serrif

Swapfell Purple Sans: Mal Serrif

Swapfell Purple Papyrus: Slim Serrif

Outertale -

Outertale Sans: Cosmic Serrif. I thought it would be kinda funny that he would name himself Cosmic because when he finds out how similar he and Vanilla are, the two progressively end up making a connection to Comic Sans becoming a pun with "Cosmic."

Outertale Papyrus: Comet Serrif. Fast, energetic, and bright - Comet got his name out of inspiration. He actually was able to pick what name he wanted quickly as a result

Farmtale -

Farmtale Sans: Basil Serrif. Basil is a type of plant that is suspected to have mild sedative properties that affect mood and ease things such as depression, anxiety, and sleeping problems. Wonderful for foods, teas, etc, he thought that the name itself was just perfect for him. He's a very laid back character, so it works along with the fact that his magic happens to be green

Farmtale Papyrus: Juniper Serrif. The word juniper comes from the Latin word juniperus, which means "to produce." The name symbolizes life, growth, and it's known to be a resilient plant. So, what better name could he go for that's based off a plant like his brother and that perfectly captures his excellence?

Gtale(?) -

G!Sans: Marigold Serrif. Like his magic, it is a bright flower that often symbolizes power, strength, and light. It is also said that Marigolds are thought to attract souls. Back then in the Victorian Era, where the Language of Flowers prospered, marigolds often were about grief and sadness, often put in bouquets as a way of expressing kindness and solidarity. He would have chosen this name as a sort of gesture of withholding the memories of not only Gaster, but of all that lie underground as they vanished. He is a withdrawn and self reflective individual, it makes sense he'd choose it as it holds significant meaning to him

G!Papyrus: Sage Serrif. The name means wise, or prophet in Latin terms. The plant is commonly also used in practices that include burning it in order to connect to the spiritual world or enhance intuition. His magic is green, so to specifically focus on green Sage reveals that it represents wisdom, intelligence, and experience. When part of Gaster's soul fused with his own, not only did he grow more knowledge, but he progressively became a mixture of both personalities. So, sage was the perfect inspiration for him

Fashiontale -

For context: I do not like anything from the original AU Underlust It was a proshipping hellhole that I do not like and honestly most of the designs if not all of them are not to my personal liking. So, as a result I took some inspiration of what it was "going for" and decided to make my own little AU like spin on it. So, to get a slight idea, this is where these two come from

Fashiontale Sans: Cupid Serrif. The God of desire, attraction, affection, and erotic love. It's a fitting name for him because of his popularity underground for his performances and his ability to attract all the things that the God Cupid is capable of. He would only want such a pretty name for a pretty face

Fashiontale Papyrus: Desi Serrif. Desi comes from Desire, shortened to a simple sweetness. It also is a name meaning "yearning, sorrow, or desire." With all of this, what really pushed him to choose this name is because of the Desi Roses, a garden rose variety that is known for its strong scent. Everyone already knows the symbolism of roses, so this was just the perfect name for him

Apple Brothers:

I have no desire to change their names, since they're such solid ones. However, below, I decided to add little nicknames that were technically their own "names" when the two were children

Dream: Sunny or Dreamy, which used to be used by Nightmare when the two were children

Nightmare: Nicknames he had from Dream were ones such as Nighty or Moony. ("oh like FNA-" "shhh shhh shh shh. Shh")

Glitch:

Glitched Swap Sans: Blooper. He was not meant to be an outcode, let alone meant to even be in the void to begin with. A stumble of steps, a missed line, a missed frame. The dictionary states that Blooper means "an embarrassing error" "a mistake" and I think that perfectly encapsulates him entirely. How he feels, how he was created. There's a lot I personally changed in his character, but I wanted to name him Blooper since not only is it fitting, but because it also is a small nod towards "Blueberror", which was his original name

Closing Thoughts:

I plan to just keep the rest of the names that we have for other popular AU's such as Ink, Reaper, Dust, Killer, Error, Geno, and Cross.

Hua Cheng’s Poem (Part 1) - “The Song of Mourning: Fourth Segment”

(I planned to post this initially in Jan 2023 but I realise i have to post this soon or I can't finish the next few parts LOL. And it's part the poetry club discord homework so here it goes!)

In TGCF, Hua Cheng says he loves the poem “离思 Mourning” and it has been referred to several times in the novel. There was even a scene that went like this: 🥰

“Who knew that Hua Cheng wasn’t done hugging him and violently pushed him onto the jade table, scattering the brush, ink, paper and ink stone onto the ground. Xie Lian’s hand brushed over the plate of vermillion sand, leaving a few traces of crimson on the paper in the struggle. On the paper, the words “Wushan” on the phrase “If you’ve been enchanted by the wind and cloud of Wushan, you won’t be attracted to the clouds of other scenery” were stained with small red marks, almost flirtatiously so. Xielian uttered, “San…”

Before he could finish his sentence, Hua Cheng pressed his shoulders down and kissed him.” - Translated by me. Chapter 127

This poem is the fourth segment of the “The Five Songs of Mourning 离思五首” (aka known as Mourning 离思) written by the poet Yuan Zhen 元稹. Mourning was a common theme in ancient Han Poetry. This poem describes the love for his wife, and his how much he misses them when she passed on.

For the record, the whole poem was in the novel.

曾经沧海难为水，

If you’ve experienced the rippling sea, you won’t be attracted to water anywhere else

(This is a line now used in modern times to describe the intense love one has for their lover)

除却巫山不是云。

If you’ve been enchanted by the wind and cloud of Wushan (Mount Wu), you won’t be attracted to the clouds of other scenery

取次花丛懒回顾，

Even amidst all the flowers, I’m lazy to take another look. (The “flowers” refer to the prostitutes or women)

半缘修道半缘君。

This is because, half of it the reason is due to a Tao cultivator’s pure mind, and the half is because of the you that I once had.

Analysis

The first two lines are about how the poet is in love with his partner. The third line is about how he is no longer affected by the prostitute he sees. The fourth line means that he’s not interested anymore because firstly, he’s not interested in matters of the world anymore as he’s cultivating the Tao and secondly, he’s not interested in other women as his beloved has passed on.

🦄 My Analysis - TGCF

The third line caught my eye when I read this poem. I personally thought it could be interpreted literally that the writer wasn’t interested in women in general in the TGCF context. (Idk if that’s why MXTX picked this poem? Lol )

And hmm “walking among the flowers” seemed particularly fitting as Hua Cheng 花城‘s name literally means “a city of flowers.”

And Wushan 巫山!! I love that little point where Wushan was smeared with red. Wushan’s an allusion to a couple’s rendezvous in chinese poetry. And lol so that imagery of the words Wushan “stained with small red marks, almost flirtatiously so.” HELP

Okay, this will be a three part meta. I promise you it'll be interesting.

People’s Flag Wars 2: Round 1, Bracket 3

See symbolism below.

San Francisco Horizon Flag is a redesign of the flag of San Francisco by Brian Stokle.

Symbolism: “Foggy skies + Golden foundations, meeting at the blue bay waters with vermillion bridges beckoning all to the city.”

Independent Symbol of Catania is a flag proposal for an independent Catania, Italy by Catania Project.

Symbolism: “The design of the symbol of Catania, which has already received several world recognitions, starts from simple, well-thought-out geometric shapes and lines and colors that evoke emotions typical of the Catania area which, once deciphered, reveal the image to the eyes of those who look at it of the pure essence of the cities of Catania. The majestic Etna volcano (black) and its volcanic eruptions (red) contrast with a horizon drawn by the sea (blue), while the sky is white, to symbolize the city's hopes for a better future yet to be written for all of us.”

The Taipei, Taiwan redesign was made by Dúghorm.

Symbolism: “A redesign of the logo of Taipei, which depicts a stylized character 北 (běi, "north") in four colors, recreated with heraldic ordinaries.”
