#wanted to try out second person too huhu

[princessmacedon]

(o・・o)/

You do not remember the second war, of course; it began after you closed your eyes, lost in a spell and darkness. So naturally, you cannot remember Kris, because you do not know them -- oh, you do not know them, but you want to. After all, isn't it strange? You hear their name so often from those who fought in Prince Marth's army, but never anywhere else.

It is, as it has always been, Minerva who inspires the greatest curiosity within you; you know her heart is not closed, but still it is brambled with hidden gates -- when she gives her trust, it is always exactingly placed, and especially so after... ...but the others think well of him, too! And the few times you see Prince Marth in the after, he comes with a moon in his orbit, a star in his sky: ever present, you're sure, but sometimes lost and not found again until you squint your eyes.

And then! And then you come to Fodlan, you make new friends and reconnect with old, but still, you hardly ever meet him more than just in passing. You think he mustn't ever think of you, the unnoteworthy little sister of a hero and a villain, and you think that for some time still after a box of candy arrives on your birthday, sat quietly at your door. Yes, you think, and you think, and you think, gifts given and hunches come and gone in the interim, but by the time your third birthday comes in this faraway land, you have already known that simply isn't true.

To you, his kindnesses are quiet, like unto the seeds of trees planted by weary travelers: its shade, its splendor, the affection with which it grows -- all things that blossom in his wake, long after he is gone.

Hi first of all i just want to say that I love your fics and second may I request a flirty workaholic reader x cale where the reader is isekaid to lofcf and told cale about it so the reader became the right hand person of cale who loves flirting with him anytime anywhere😙😙🤣🤣 but the story focuses on cale being curious how will the reader act to other people who is not part of the calefam, just someone who is a stranger. So he then disguises himself as a stranger to meet with the reader (who is experiencing day off the first time since becoming a servant because she argues that seeing cale's face, serving and flirting with him is what she considers as rest but the others didn't allow it this time since they are worried and tired of always seeing the reader work)

Then the reader 'accidentaly' bumped into disguised cale whose name is Bob and they became friends so nowadays the reader will set a little bit of their time once a week to meet with her new friend and cale is becoming jealous of his disguised self because the reader is always telling him about what she and 'Bob' does with so much joy in her eyes

Best Friend Bob - Cale/Reader

notes: thank you for liking my fics! Also, I'm not that versed in writing flirty personalities so I'm sorry if its bad huhu

“You’re sending me away? Do you not want to play with me anymore cutie?”

Cale grimaces at his fellow transmigrator’s words. He should be used to the flirting right now but for some reason, he still isn’t.

“It’s been years since you had a day off. You still work even when everyone is slacking off.”

“Just looking at your face is enough rest for me.”

_____ winked at him and Cale turned away.

“Anyways take this time to explore or something.”

“You wound me, but since you insist…”

With that _____ takes a day off for the first time since she transmigrates into this world.

‘What am I even supposed to do the whole day?’

_____ has always been an introvert and a home person even before she got sucked into this novel. Sure, at first she was curious about her new surroundings. However, she felt like she had seen enough since Cale was always on the move.

“Maybe I flirt with him too mu– owww”

The girl stopped in the middle of her mumbling as she bumped into a guy. He looks plain, but there’s this air around him that screams rich.

“I’m so sorry”

“Oh no, I should be apologizing. I wasn’t looking where I was walking.”

_____ waved her hands at the unnecessary apology from the man. She felt guilty that this poor guy was saying sorry when she was the one walking with her head in the clouds.

“I’m sorry for bumping into you. As an apology maybe I can treat you to something?”

The woman offered to the stranger. This particular looks familiar but at the same time, she’s sure she has never seen him before.

“If you insist. I know a great cafe around here. We can have some tea there.”

And so the two of them had tea at _____’s insistence.

“My name is Bob. What about you?”

‘Okay now this is suspicious’

_____ thought before quickly introducing herself to Bob.

‘Hmm, who could this be?’

She’s not an idiot. Bob is a rare name in this novel. It might have looked like it was common because of all the times Cale and his friends used it.

But there was only one recorded person who was named Bob.

Well, based on the novel none of the enemies ever disguised themself as Bob so _____ deemed it safe for now. However, they are extremely curious as to who could it be.

A few hours pass, Bob and _____ have become friends while exploring the town together. The woman is still suspicious and is trying to figure out Bob’s real identity but aside from that she thinks his pretty good.

“How was your day off?”

Cale asks as soon as he sees the workaholic enter the villa.

“It actually went great, I made a new friend.”

“Really now?”

The redhead inquires further, interested in his assistant’s social life.

_____ told Cale all about what happened the whole day. From how she met Bob to where they last went. She told him everything except for the part where she felt suspicious about his identity. 

…Of course, Cale already knows all of this.

His Bob afterall

A few hours ago he had asked Raon to give him a disguise. Something that _____ had never seen before so she would not recognize him.

Why one might ask?

It’s purely for experimental reasons. _____ kept flirting with him that he wanted to find out if she’d do the same to others.

Results showed that she doesn’t.

But they also just met so it might change.

So Cale continues befriending her under the guise named “Bob”. As he does, they surprisingly become good friends. It’s also good that the assistant now takes regular days off because of their meet-ups.

“I’m getting tired of this…”

“You’re tried human? How about we go rest for the day? We can’t get you sick because you’re tired!”

It was another friend's date with _____. They have been friends for about a month now but the girl still acts the same.

Meaning, that not once has she flirted with Bob.

Sure, she’s more comfortable with him but the way she acts with Bob and with Cale are so different.

Does this mean that his just special?

Cale isn’t sure.

But his tired of having to switch between identities when he's not even getting money out of it.

Okay, maybe he was a little jealous of how close Bob and _____ have gotten.

It doesn’t help that his assistant every single detail of what happened while looking all happy and excited.

However, no one needs to know about that.

But as much as he doesn’t like the current situation he continues it. It’s because he enjoys the look of happiness etched onto her face whenever they hang out together.

He just wishes that smile was because of Cale and not Bob.

“Bob, by now I think we can consider ourselves as good friends right?”

_____ asked one day while the two of them were eating street food after roaming the market.

Bob nodded his head in agreement. Inside, Cale rolls his eyes because how can she be so close to a guy she just met a month ago?

“I see. So who are you? Choi Han? Wait no that guy sucks at acting…”

Seems like the cat is out of the bag.

Cale would usually be irritated that someone saw behind his plans. However, he has been thinking as to how to put a stop to this so it’s beneficial for him.

At that moment

“Raon”

He states and the black dragon undones the magic alterations done on him, revealing his real appearance.

“Now, young master Cale why would you do such a thing? Did you not want me to go out of your sight so much? You only need to ask and I’ll stay with you 24/7.”

_____ winks flirtatously. Meanwhile, Cale just shrugged his shoulders. Indicating that he has no plans of sharing his plans with her.

“But seriously, did you through all this hassle just to make sure I take my day off regularly? Or did you find my social circle lacking?”

“No _____! He was jealous at how you and Bob got so close!”

…Okay maybe Cale should have briefed Raon about not exposing his feelings in front of _____.

sending your crush a survey form hcs part 2 second years x reader (separate) -> riddle, ruggie, azul

author's note: jade, floyd, kalim, jamil, and silver will be posted separately because of the tumblr image limit, i can't fit them all into one post (also i'm having trouble with massive lag for this post as is huhu)

general tags: gn reader, fluff + attempt at humor, sfw, not beta read, mix of text and images (for images, alt text/image description available)

part 1 w/ first years

character: RIDDLE ROSEHEARTS premise/trope: sending Riddle an "academic survey" to answer

HOW HE REACTS WHEN YOU SEND THE FORM LINK

You've done too good a job at making the link look legit, at hiding your intentions. Using a link shortener like twst.ly so that no preview would show up, talking about how you needed respondents, all that jazz.

Riddle would help any student in need (academically) if he was capable of doing so, he was just that kind of person, but because he liked you he was very willing to go above and beyond.

He was going to help anyway, but telling him things like "I really appreciate you doing this for me," seals the deal for him.

You had a survey that needed answering and you wanted him to answer it because you needed respondents? Well, what if he sends the link to other people as well?

He asks you about how much respondents you still need, though you don't respondent yet. He decides to delay sending it to the rest of Heartslabyul for now, only sending it to Cater and Trey.

Thank the Sevens for that.

Trey and Cater are immediately poking fun at him, telling him to actually open the survey first because they knew that he wouldn't want to send it to anyone if he saw the contents.

"Aren't you lucky you sent this to us and not the rest of Heartslabyul?"

"How embarrassed would you have been if you sent this to the Dorm Leaders gc?"

"Or worse... to Ace and Deuce."

He's rather angry, not necessarily at you (though he is a little bit annoyed, could you not have done something else less... troublesome?) but mostly at himself for not checking first. He should be more vigilant next time.

RIDDLE: Cater said this was a trend, but... I still don't understand why you would make something like this.

You haven't responded yet, so Riddle decides to answer the form all the way through.

In his head he wonders, whatever happened to regular courtship? Like he's not flustered by the whole situation.

Riddle's answers carry that tone where it feels like he's seriously questioning your intentions/decisions, but also like he's trying to answer genuinely. It's almost like he's trying to let you have your cake and eat it too (that is to say, letting you have your fun) despite not being quite sure of how to go about it.

The point is, the fact that he actually answers it is a miracle in itself, and you don't shy from letting him know you appreciate it.

HOW HE ANSWERS THE QUESTIONS

AFTER HE ANSWERS THE FORM

Actively seeks you out in person to confront you about the form. He has a feeling you were being serious about it despite the formatting, so he pretty much confirms that you do like him.

Also asks you why you would want to go about it this way, and most answers don't exactly satisfy him, but at the end of the day he's happy about the results.

You like him, he likes you, and that's what's important, really.

(Though he has no real intentions of telling his mother that he's getting into a relationship, he wonders how she would react if she found out not only did he not ask his s/o out first, but that you did it in such a bizarre manner)

"I don't think I would even give this the time of day if someone else sent it," Riddle tells you honestly, "but because it's you... even something this weird is endearing."

character: RUGGIE BUCCHI premise/trope: sending Ruggie the classic crush form, except you send it when he's busy with work and now he can't concentrate because he's too busy blushing and giggling and kicking his legs at the thought of you 👍👍

HOW HE REACTS WHEN YOU SEND THE FORM LINK

He hadn't planned on viewing any of your messages at first (or anyone's messages, really). He planned on viewing them once he finished up for the day.

But Leona was getting annoyed with the constant beeping, and honestly he was too (like, couldn't they just send it all in one message, whatever it was they wanted to say?) so he moved to view the messages quickly, maybe answer if he felt like it, then mute his phone for an hour.

Except he saw that the messages were from you, and he caught a peep of the link preview... and then he just lost it.

"It" being all sense of focus and comprehension and he knows it's bad because Leona's staring at him weirdly.

"Why are you blushing and giggling like a school girl what the hell..."

Leona just doesn't get it, Ruggie justifies. When the actual love of your life confirms their feelings for you it's enough to make anyone collapse to the floor and weep, and if anything Ruggie is holding up pretty well by, well, still being able to fold a shirt properly in spite of it all.

And then he almost messes up the laundry by mixing the colors with the whites, so maybe he is too distracted after all.

RUGGIE: ya rly hda to go send it now of all times, dontcha?? do ya want me to embarras myself in fornt of leona or smth???? wth have mercy on me

He makes a bunch of typos but he can't be bothered to correct them.

He can't really focus for the rest of the day, and when he's free from his assigned tasks he heads straight for his phone. He should be studying, but he doesn't think he can focus on that at this point without reading the form and just... seeing if you're for real, for real.

Ruggie answers like he's trying to be slick but he also can't help but slip in just how much he likes you and the types of reactions you get out of him.

HOW HE ANSWERS THE QUESTIONS

AFTER HE ANSWERS THE FORM

He needs to call you (honestly would prefer to meet up in person, but it's pretty damn late and he wants you to get your rest and... yeah, the in person talk can wait for a little bit)

Honestly you've just... lightened up his mood, like a lot. Like he just knows he's going to be full of energy and motivation tomorrow, and maybe the days after because of how much happiness you've given him.

You can tease him all you want for his answers and the spelling/grammar mistakes (in his defense, his hands were shaking the whole time!) but he can't even get himself to be too upset by it. You're laughing and giggling and that's all enough for Ruggie's good mood to skyrocket.

After that dies down, though, the two of you end up planning for your upcoming date.

"Don't think I'm not gonna getcha back for this, shishishi..."

character: AZUL ASHENGROTTO premise/trope: sending an s/o application form to Azul, who's been crushing on you for a while now

HOW HE REACTS WHEN YOU SEND THE FORM LINK

Makes sure to check the link properly first since bait links are popular these days (he learned his internet safety from Idia). Messages you in a different platform to ask if you've been hacked.

When you tell him you were the one who sent the link, it still doesn't quite sink in that you're being genuine. Before a crush you are a friend and he does trust you, but a part of him wonders if this is some prank or if someone forced you to send him something like that. You must know how badly he likes you, don't you? Please don't make fun of his feelings like this.

He calls you to really make sure, and with some reassurance from you he finally understands that this isn't something mean, that it was a trend you wanted to hop on, and that you won't judge him for his answers

You tell him that he doesn't have to answer if it makes him uncomfortable, that you just thought it seemed fun, but he tells you he does want to answer it.

"If... if you really consider me as someone who could become your partner... When opportunity knocks on my door, who am I to not answer its call?"

He tries to sound more confident, but inevitably hangs up because he doesn't think he can answer properly with you on the phone. He might end up typing a bunch of nonsense!

Azul struggles with having a fun answer and answering completely seriously, almost like it's a job interview or something. Doesn't realize until the last few questions that there are no other candidates to compete with. Maybe he should have skimmed all the questions first before answering.

The good thing, though, is that you do learn about how Azul sees romance, so even if the whole form was meant as something silly at first you do learn more about him.

HOW HE ANSWERS THE QUESTIONS

AFTER HE ANSWERS THE FORM

The last two questions gave Azul some confidence when it came to pursuing you. There's just something reassuring about actually knowing that his feelings weren't unrequited as opposed to having to make assumptions or having to make the effort to get you to fall for him.

You've already made most of the first moves, from confessing your feelings (albeit not quite in person, maybe he could try doing that...), to being the one to ask him on a date... There must be something he can do. He wants to play on equal ground, make the first move as well.

That's when the idea strikes him. It's not very innovative, but there's no need to fix what's not broken, is there?

Azul sits in front of his laptop for approximately an hour, and when he's satisfied he converts the file into a PDF. It's not a very serious document, even if it's formatted as such, and that's how you know that he's finally eased up.

"Since I've passed the application period, the next step is to sign a partnership contract, is it not?"

[ 1 ] twst.ly is basically bit.ly, the link shortener

[ 2 ] compared to part 1 (the first years) where it was set post-NRC, this time i set it during NRC. the remaining second years will also be set during NRC, though the third years is mixed 👍

[ 3 ] the text versions of the images are in the alt text/image description but do let me know if you would prefer it to be in the post itself!

[ 4 ] i'm thinking about whether i should continue making the forms manually instead of just using the actual google forms app, it's such a hassle my laptop keeps overheating these days huhu

[honeystwiggypeach]

hi i hope you dont mind but if you're not that busy is it okay if you write this? huhu thank you!

reader telling jjk men (geto, gojo, nanami, toji, choso) that they are preggo and they've been trying for a few years already and are already thinking of surrogacy. please please please this can be months after they have a miscarriage too!

a rainbow baby! 😭

Hi hon!!! Sorry this came so late I got a bit caught up with school than my mom and aunts wanted to have dinner so that’s what I did today! Tysm for the request! I try to remain as respectful as possible when I write requests like this or about sensitive topics so pls tell me if I misphrase or say anything poorly so I can correct it!!

Ps. I didn’t do choso because idk his personality well and I don’t know if I’m confident in writing him😭

Tw- mentions of past miscarriages, rainbow baby, infertility, surrogacy, anything mentioned in the request, grief, (in Geto’s people besides parents try and explain death and miscarriage to the twins so reader gets upset)in gojos the pregnancy is both unplanned and not known about, birth, pregnant reader if your uncomfortable with anything relating to loosing a child/pregnancy I advise that you do not read this one! Pls let me know if I missed anything!!

Geto

He took it hard, he loved the twins with his whole heart he truly did but he missed having babies to look after, maybe it was just baby fever but he felt like your little family wasn’t quite complete.

Unfortunately when you’d found the missing piece, it didn’t work out, unfortunately in your second trimester you had miscarried. You and Geto were both devastated, and everyone for a while everyone treated the two of you as ticking time bombs ready to explode at any moment.

The girls didn’t quite understand, they knew that they were supposed to have a sibling soon and now they weren’t going to but that was it, they couldn’t comprehend it yet and the amount of times you both had to stop people from explaining it to them horrified you.

This time when you’d fallen pregnant, you decided that maybe you two should keep this one a bit secret just in case, so when you’d first told Geto it was in the safety of your bedroom you’d sat beside him your hands behind your back before quickly pulling out the test.

“Are you serious” his voice is a bit quiet as it crackles.

You were his only weak spot, of course besides his children…but of course he would never let you know that…not like it was obvious or anything. He practically sobs when you give him a little nod, he lets out the same quiet muffled sobbing noise when he sees his son for the first time laid on your chest.

Gojo

Honestly it hurt you a lot. His family was really into the idea of you carrying a biological heir, but sometimes it felt like you just weren’t capable of doing so. Honestly you’d started to even look into surrogacy because you couldn’t handle all the unfortunate things that continued to happen every time you would even talk about pregnancy.

When you’d been getting intense abdominal cramps you decided maybe you shouldn’t test it and checked yourself into the hospital, where you found out you were in labour, within the hour Gojo had arrived to see you sat up in the hospital bed with the cutest little baby girl laid on your chest. You smile dazedly as he stares down at the two of you in wonder.

“She’s real” he whispers as he touches the little fluffy whisper of hair she has. His fingers just barely graze her scalp and she scrunches and thats what triggers his tears.

Nanami

It was just bad news after bad news, it was beginning to feel like maybe you shouldn’t have a baby at all. Of course when Nanami had heard you mutter this one night after you’d talked about trying for a baby again, he smiled guiltily, “if this doesn’t work there’s surrogacy or even adoption” he knows that you don’t want either of those, you want what everyone else is able to have, he can hear the way you cry in the bathroom after another negative test about how unfair it is and how cruel the world can be.

But this time there’s no crying no shouts of how unfair it is, there’s silence and Nanami at first thinks you’ve fallen and hurt yourself but when he hears your squeal he knows that isn’t the case.

He pushes the door open softly to see you holding the test you smile up at him as you show him the two little pink lines, “it’s positive” you tell him and it takes a moment to register but when it does he’s got a wide smile as he bends down softly peppering kisses along your face.

Toji

He was rather reserved already but after you’d lost the baby, it became worse. Toji not only was reserved but he was reclusive, not eating dinner with you and Megumi not even greeting you anymore.

He’d come out at night and creep around the house to avoid seeing you two, he didn’t understand how to process the loss and had resorted to cutting off the world while he grieved.

One of these nights however he’s not quiet enough and you flicker on the lights, Toji is stood over the sink as he chugs down tap water.

“Toji” you call out, “Will you come to bed?” And when he lays down beside you it feels like heaven. He’s wrapped in your warm embraces as you whisper soft reassurances he doesn’t tell you that your comfort and soft touch made him cry long after you fell asleep.

Almost a year after that, you’d fallen pregnant, and Megumi was the one to help you tell him as he pranced around the house all day in a tee shirt that said big brother on it.

Honestly it was adorable and you loved seeing little Megumi be so happy when his dad furrowed his brows holding his boy up by the armpits to get a good look at what his shirt said glancing down to your belly than back to Megumi before his eyes meet yours.

“You’re serious?” He asks still holding up Megumi.

You give him a little nod paired with a nervous giggle and he sets Megumi down softly going over to hug you as Megumi continues to stomp around the kitchen.

If anyone wants to see anything else pls let me know!! Omg guys!!! Do you want to see reader and maybe like teen Megumi?(reader is with Toji, but maybe like reader being a mom figure to Megumi and while he’s got a fever he unintentionally calls her mama, which he hadn’t done since he was really young?? And Toji like hugging reader a bit when she cries because she misses him being a baby and being affectionate???? I’m gonna sob someone request it pls???)

miguel o'hara x socially awkward, smart, filipino reader

summary: you just want to try and get to know him, but knowing everything about the science and tech at the spider society doesn't magically grant you wisdom on how to make a stoic, stern man become your friend in a day (let alone get your crush to notice you) pairing: miguel o'hara x gn!filipino!reader (but anyone is welcome to read it !!) genre: FLUFF ! word count: 1,359 request: can you write another Miguel x Filipino!reader who's really smart and talented but socially awkward... like the reader has a crush on Miguel and wants to have a close bond/relationship with him so the reader is doing their best to have a conversation/spend time with him (only to end up being kinda awkward in terms of the reader's execution huhu basta something like that ganern)

without a doubt, you were the most important person in the whole spider society as a normal, ordinary, every day person that didn't have any spider powers. second to lyla, you were the only two hands (that had signs of life coursing through their veins) that kept the spider society functioning and afloat. you fixed nearly everybody's technical hiccup in the span of a few minutes, and the best part was, you loved doing this—you loved helping the spider people you came across in the field you were an expert in; it gave you big boosts of confidence to your otherwise incredibly anxious self.

you were always praised and thanked by everyone you helped, and it always brought a smile on your face and humble words out of your mouth every time to respond. however, there was one person you couldn't dare to face in the eye to give a 'you're welcome' to them, one person you always ran away from in embarrassment every time you fumbled up your greeting to them or their name in sheer anxiety of how to approach them. your mouth sometimes runs faster than your already overthinking mind, which was both a blessing and a curse to you. that person was none other than the revered, yet feared, miguel o'hara.

the big man had never done anything to directly intimidate you, it was mainly your anxiety and overthinking that filled in the blanks for you about what he probably thinks about you. you saw him as this distant, otherworldly man who was far, far from your league–he was a stoic, stern, and serious guy who led a whole society of spider people from across the multiverse; he was hot shit, very hot shit. and you're just this... person, this person who came from another earth from some ordinary family, with ordinary roots, and a not-so ordinary mind that could solve technical problems in a matter of seconds–you doubted he'd take notice of you.

though, there was always that more risk-taking part of you–that side of you that always seemed to want to do something that would backfire or impossible to pull off; that side of you that... that yearned to do things that you usually wouldn't do, call it a nice intrusive thought, a reflex, an urge. and that urge was... to make small talk with miguel o'hara as you fix up his web shooter for him.

yeah. not the most comfortable situation.

you're starting to feel how cold and hard the seat below you is as you're analyzing the code in his digital webs. he's seated cross-armed before you and pouting slightly, maybe it was an urge for him, to, to just... pout. it was hard not to notice him pouting–your attention always did come down to his very full and plump lips, sometimes you'd think about the shape of his lips, drawing them out on some scratch paper to get the thoughts out of your mind, and sometimes, you wondered to yourself at random times of the day how good they'd feel against–nevermind. '

oh, please, don't ask him that. talk about anything else, say anything else, just not–'

"ah, um... you have pretty full lips, mig, don't you?" you asked him with a shy smile and an awkward laugh following it. a long silence fell and lingered in the atmosphere, joining the thick awkwardness that was palpable the more and more you tried reviving your dying out, nervous chuckle as you hurried darted your eyes from miguel's lips to his web shooter, trying to wipe the memory of what you just said away from your mind while also berating yourself for saying it.

'that's it, you killed your chances with him. nobody says that, what's up with you? he's gonna think you're weird, that you have a, what, a fetish for him? you've screwed yourself over! you're screw–'

"i do?" miguel asked as he looked at you, his lips still in a pouting look. you got a bit embarrassed, you eyes wide open as you profusely nodded. "i-it's, um, quite..." 'don't say it, don't say it, don't say it–' "...cute." 'you fucked yourself over again, for real this time.'

you began to sweat a little, then a whole lot; the beads of sweat glistening on your forehead as you awkwardly grinned at him to ease the tension of the awkwardness that filled the room, which actually made it worse in your eyes as your grin curved into a wince. "i do, huh." miguel said as he nodded and looked away from you, going back to analyzing the statuses of the earths he was monitoring earlier. "is that a good or a bad thing?" he asked you as you jolted up, straightening your back and stammering as your brain tried loading up an answer. "ah, um... yes." 'seriously?!' "what kind of answer is 'yes'?" 'i don't know!'

"i-i meant, yes! yes, i-it's a good thing. a... a very good thing." you added as you almost finished up fixing and patching up the bugs in his webs so he can finally use his web shooters in action and quit with the idle chatter. though a part of you, no matter how anxious and socially awkward, wanted miguel to stay–despite not having much to talk about, his presence comforted you, somehow. you may not have been the best with words, but you didn't have to be–you were comfortable and content with being with him in silence, just staying with him and being in each other's comfort. because, even though neither of you had a very proper conversation... you had always admired and looked up to him, always caught glimpses of him that spoke a deeper language more than words could ever hope to.

miguel cleared his throat and looked at you fixing up the final touches of his web shooters. "well, then... i suppose i should thank you, for, fixing my web shooters. and for your... unique compliment. i've... never been told that before in my life, it's... it's interesting to know." he muttered, his face getting a big flustered and so was yours–though yours was getting even more heated and flustered because... he's the one you like, the one you adore; the one for you, in your delusional yet genius mind. "um... this might sound very stupid to you, but, if you'd like, um... wanna maybe... come over to my place and... let me cook you up something good?" miguel asked you in stammers, trying to keep his voice even, but ultimately failed.

"i'd... i'd love that." you said with a grin, a bright, lovely grin that was full of hope and joy–you were just the cutesy little thing... and even though you were the one who fell first, miguel certainly fell much, much harder. miguel's AI assistant, lyla, popped up next to miguel and smirked. "was that so hard to say?" she asked him in a playful voice as miguel ignored her. the AI assistant popped up close to your face now and grinned. "y'know, it took him months to tell you that–that's why he always sounds like he's mumbling around you, i hope you weren't scared off by this big grizzly bear of a guy." she apologized for miguel as he growled lowly in embarrassment, like a provoked bear, as lyla described him as.

you giggled and told lyla it was no problem. "honestly, it took me months to talk to him..." "well, perfect, you two are clearly meant for each other." she said as miguel furrowed his eyebrows as his eyes widened. "lyla, i'll disconnect you." miguel warned the AI assistant as she stuck her tongue out at miguel and you whispered to her you'd have her back online in seconds if he did. you truly were the most charming person miguel met, without a doubt–you just needed a little push, a little reassurance, you had his heart in the palm of your hands in seconds; though you had social awkwardness and anxiety, you truly were a joy if the layers of your nervous and anxious self could be peeled back and appreciated, you were just perfect in miguel's eyes.

[yakumtsaki]

-Oh Sunset, I'm so lucky to be in a loving relationship with such a kind, loyal and non-criminally insane person such as yourself!

You're so on the money, buddy, the only thing you missed was 'sexually repelled by cousins'.

-I CAN'T DO THIS, TYLER, YOU'RE SUFFOCATING ME -I'm sorry! Also my name is Ty! -I KNOW BUT IT'S A STUPID NAME AND I'M NOT CALLING YOU THAT

She's right, Ty, and to top it off your last name isn't Union, it's like you're not even trying!

Bruh.. This chain of interactions from the hugging to the insulting to the making out took place in about 1 minute, I can't believe Stacy and Julian of all couples produced Sunset. Why can't you be more like your parents?? They were my cutest, healthiest couple ever!!

-They only thing they cared about having sex 50 a times a day! Aunt June basically raised me!!

Omg I'm looking at the pics of the spare updates I never posted because I suck and YA SHE DID, that explains so much, June is truly the platonic ideal of the hot-batshit combo.

Speaking of batshit-

-And hot!

If you say so, Barth is putting the moves on Marla Biggs, whomst we last saw when June (there she is again) used her to dump Erik-

-Yes, and that one wolf whistle from June turned me gay for all eternity, so don't even bother!

-UGH. So I guess I have no choice..

-..but to sleep with another one of my second cousins! -Oh Barth, I can't believe this is finally happening!!! -I know, Cyan, it took way too long!

We've been here for a week.

-Don't worry, nothing will interrupt this magical moment-WHAT THE FUCK I'M BEING CHEATED ON GOTTA RUN SORRY CYAN CATCH YOU LATER

Ok apparently I was laughing too hard to take a decent pic, but yes, BARTHOLOMEW CAUGHT HIS COUSIN 'CHEATING' ON HIM AS HE WAS HOOKING UP WITH HIS OTHER COUSIN. I HATE MY GAME.

-AND I HATE YOU, SUNSET. YOU BROKE MY HEART -FUCK YOU, BARTHOLOMEW, I'M NOT GONNA BE PART OF YOUR SECOND COUSIN HAREM -I HOPE YOU DROWN IN THE POOL -This was so beautiful, Sunset, I think I'm falling in love with you💙 -GET OUT OF HERE, TYLER -It's Ty! -NO ONE CARES, ASSHOLE -DON'T TALK TO TYLER LIKE THAT -That's not my name! -IT IS NOW, SHUT UP

I gotta hand it to Ty, he's in it to win it, whatever it is one could possibly 'win' when it comes to Sunset.

-Oh Sunset, you're the queen of my heart! -Gross!🥰

-Aw baby, I love spending all our awake time woohooing and doing nothing interesting, huhu!🌞 -It really is the best, thanks to your horrific LTW we don't even have to try! It's so awful people are bound to vote for us just to watch the trainwreck!

Ya I wish I had a counter-argument but you two really have this thing figured out, even I wanna watch me have a mental breakdown trying to raise your 6 asshole kids.

-Our kids are not gonna be assholes!🌞

LOL YA OK MEADOW, whatever helps you sleep at night.

-Meadow and Felina are not the only ones with a perfect relationship! Britannicus and I are also deeply in love!! I'm writing a novel about it as we speak!!!

Jimmy no offense but I literally forgot you live here and I can barely remember who Britannicus is half the time.

-THE PARTY HAS ARRIVED

Oh Britannicus here you are, thank God, you're so indispensable to this legacy!

-All you main-houser bitches look down on me but I have a lot to offer!! I'm grandpa Gunther's heir!!!

Of course you are, now give us the pizza so the people who matter don't die.

-I'll show you! I'll show you all!! >:(

Yes yes, it's been lovely catching up-

-and now it's time to get serious and break Cyan and Barth up! Hit us with your best shot, Marg, we've been on a winning streak lately with those matches, please don't go back to Cyn's leftovers.

-Got you, say no more..

-Here's Kennedy Cox!

MARGARET

-Well it's very hard to find someone Cyneswith hasn't banged!

Ok ya that's very true but Cyan is understandably like 😬 so let's try this again, here's another dollar.

-Alright, you didn't want Cyneswith leftovers..

-How about Sandy the Zombie leftovers??

I hope I don't have to explain to you why that's SO MUCH WORSE

-And I hope I don't have to explain to you that you get what you pay for when you give a dollar for a date!

Fucking touche, Marg, get out of here.

And now for another sequence of events so absolutely ridic I'm just gonna describe it with no dialogue:

So I send Cyan inside to check the college directory thing and see what available bachelors we might booty call up, but there's no one that I like for her so I send her back out to ask Margaret for another dollar date-

-once outside, we find BRITANNICUS SERENADING BARTHOLOMEW, to which Cyan has no reaction as she's probably too shocked-

-poor dumbass loved up Jimmy has no clue and is inside getting high-

-Cyan asks Marg for another date as Barth is performing the Second Cousin Vagina Monologues-

-Margaret gives us Neon Vest Zomb AGAIN and I'm like wtf-

-at which point Britannicus, who just one moment ago was serenading Barth, WOLF WHISTLES AT CYAN-

-CAUSING BARTH TO FEEL CHEATED ON AND DUMP HER

-BETRAYED BY MY OWN BLOOD TWICE IN ONE DAY! OH, THE SHAME!

BARTH SHUT UP. BRITANNICUS WHAT. THE. HELL

-I told you! >:D

Ok you know what, at least with this I feel we have peaked and there is simply no way the situation in this house can get more insane and degenerate-

-Think again!

NO FUCKING WAY. NO. SPICE WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU'RE DATING ELDERLY GOOD WITCH, I SPECIFICALLY FOUND YOU A GF TO KEEP YOU OUT OF THIS BS

-I know but there's something almost genetically inherited drawing me to Cyan! -Yes, It's almost like our parents were into each other but there was some invisible force separating them!

YA THAT WAS THE LAWS OF NATURE

-Oh please, it was the extended family mod and we no longer have to function under its oppression!

NOTHING IN THIS HOUSE IS REMOTELY FUNCTIONING. You know what, enjoy this while it lasts because I'm breaking every single one of you mofos up, istg I feel like I'm fighting the Hydra, I chop one semi-incestuous head off and two others pop up. WELL I'LL WIN LIKE HERACLES

I'd like to end this disgusting update with this image of the rose Ty left for Sunset next to the flaming shitbag Neon Vest Zombie left for Cyan. What is this world coming to that men no longer appreciate you cheating on them with 2 of your cousins during a date?? Chivalry is dead!

Unreleased Draft #4: A Journey Through the Cosmos

Android Hwang Hyunjin x Male Reader

Synopsis: Humans went extinct decades ago, Y/N found himself waking up in an unfamiliar place with no memories of what happened, only an android and a possible second human to keep him company.

A/N • My attempt at writing third person POV i was having a hard time at this! This was suppose to be my 200 Followers special huhu but I didn't manage to finish it at that time it was long ago as well like 2021 probably😭

Author Ratings:

Plot/Idea on Scratch - 9/10, I am a sucker for sci-fi and I eat it up regularly, haha Im a science nerd what can I say I hope to do more sci fi in the futuree writing.

Writing at that time - 7/10, kinda good for a first attempt at third person but generally I dont like third person povs with x reader fics 😭! I think my wording is owkay here.

Writeability / Needed Creativity - 0/10, my love for sci fi is not comparable to my ability to actually write them, my limit is tentacle alien smut HAHAHAHA 😭.

Total Darkness.

Completely Fading.

That was all Y/N could feel, well for now I guess.

Years and years have passed in his cold sleep, that is until it was finally time.

“Wh— Where am I...?” He mumbled out, the light at the ceiling was blinding and once he sat up the chill that was surrounding him gradually disappeared. He turned to the side and noticed he was in some sort of container.

“A hospital?” He thought, weirded a bit at the moment.

He sat up straight and look around his surroundings, his blurry vision from the blinding light before now much clearer to him.

He was in a white room, like clean and pure white with lines of silver engraved on the wall.

What caught his attention though was another person, standing with his head bent as if he was nodding. “What is this place...”

Is he in heaven? In a experimental facility? He had a lot of questions surging through his nerves.

Where am I?

The male inside the opened ‘container’ stretched his muscles before standing up and walking over to the weird person.

He tapped his shoulder, Once. Twice.

Then the mysterious person looked up at the one who disturbed his sleep then spoke.

“Select a mode, human: Helper Mode, Human Mode, Guard Mode, Lover Mode.” He said without blinking and in a monotone voice.

The last option made the male widen his eyebrows in confusion as silence reigns over both of you for a few moment as he took in his appearance; sharp jaw, plump and huge lips, cat eyes, big nose and clear skin. He’s too perfect, what the hell.

His eyes were glowing a blue hue which fascinated the male until he opened those lips of his again, “Again, human please select a mode: Helper Mode, Huma—”

“Helper Mode.... Wait, are you a robot?” Said the fascinated one, scratching his head at what exactly is happening.

“Very well then.” He accepts before his blue irises turned into green, emerald glowing ones.

“As I was assigned to helper mode, I will do my best to attend to your needs whether you have questions or just want me to do a certain action that will benefit you.” he explained briefly and looked at the human before him for any signs of questions to his statement.

“Forgive me, Y/N for I haven’t introduced myself properly yet.”

He knows my name..?

“I am an android, for typically I don’t have a name — but my creator always called me Hyunjin. I was created to serve the last humans. You and whoever is inside that.” he stated, pointing to the other container right next to you before giving a beautiful smile.

“L-Last humans? This isn’t some kind of prank is it? Is this some kind of test..?” Y/N asked with a trembling voice and shocked eyes as he gnaw on his bottom lip.

The android smile faded, “No. You are both the last of civilization. Planet Earth was destroyed 79 earth years ago.” he asked his voice still barely holding emotions but empty.

Y/N tried to calm your head down before asking more questions again, “Where are we then? If Earth got destroyed.” You breathed out trying to process information.

“We are currently in what the Creator called the ‘Mothership’” Hyunjin hummed before sighing and made a hand signal inching Y/N to move forward and you did.

He swiped his hand and a hologram appeared behind Y/N, he looked back and stared at the figure in awe. “Is this where we are?” He spoke reaching out to the it only for the tips of his fingers to pass through it.

Hyunjin nodded, “Yes.”

~∆~

The ship looked a bit like a submarine of some sort. It looked cool but what was worrying about is how this ship works, like a car using fuel? Or just collecting the space dust - turning it into usable gas. he might have to ask Hyunjin later.

“Oh, you mentioned something about different modes you have - what exactly to they do?” Y/N spurred.

“Helper Mode is helping those in need either by medical or informational problems. Human Mode is where a personality to be built and be processed. Also to adapt. Guard mode is for fighting and protecting and lastly Lover mode is for me to give people’s physical needs by affection or to entertain sexual desires.” He explained once more thoroughly with a handsome smile on his face.

“Now, please take a rest. I am going to standby here to wait for the second human.” Hyunjin said but more in a concerning look.

“I have been asleep for seven decades and you still expect me to sleep?” Y/N pouted and looked at him with a glare. Hyunjin paid no mind and just nodded. Before standing still and looked at the other container.

Is it okay if—

“Hyunjin, switch to Human Mode if you may.” Y/N mumbled lowly but somehow Hyunjin’s advanced hearing caught on.

The android looked at Y/N before his emerald irises turned into brown orbs, looking more human so to speak. “As Human Mode was activated, I will do my best to communicate, learn and interact to add to my data and help build a complex human personality.” He said with a warm smile, taking a seat at the corner.

Wow, he seems more like a different person.

~∆~

Y/N played with his fingers in absolute boredom as you waited for the container to open.

“Hey Hyunjin? How long till that open?” He said in a frustrated tone, sighing afterwards.

“Not much long..” Hyunjin sighs with bored look on his face as he turned to the male walking in circles, deep in thought.

“In the meantime, Hyunjin, may I— uh, explore the ship?” Y/N spoke in a thrilled tone as his orbs was filled with curiousity.

“I would recommend you to stay put but as long as you stay in vicinity of this room, it should be okay since it’s easy to get lost in the ship here. O- Oh.. take this if your going.” He smiled meekly, standing up but somehow the other man couldn’t take his eyes off on how the android moves his thick and plump lips while he’s chattering.

~∆~

“Y/N..? Hello Y/N to ship?” He waves his hand on your face, laughing at you.

Y/N stared at him incredulously, silently judging his slighty robotic laugh. “Is that normal?”

“Uh....” he trailed before clearing his throat and laughing again this time more realistic.

The human smiled at it but forgot that Hyunjin was giving him omething, due to the absurd amount of time used to check the non-human.

“Take this if your going.” he said pulling something out of his pocket - a badge?

Wha—

[ughscara]

UGH YOUR LATEST REBLOG HAS ME <333 it’s so funny to think about, because Kuni finally has a way to control you when you’re all whiny and pouty without his attention. just dishes out this new paper and all of a sudden you’ve dove into a new topic you may not have heard about but is now fascinated with (yes he has to listen to your quiet mumbles about it and look at your very focused face but it’s cute <3)

AND THE SECOND SCENARIO ANGST?? I WAS NOT EXPECTING THAT YAME. it makes me think a lot because in the official art, Wanderer expression is always so “😒” when he has to attend the Akademiya… but deep down he still tries pretty hard, even if he doesn’t show it 😭 And you just want to give your lover a hug for everything and tell him that you see how hard he’s trying, and that it’s okay for him to take a break.

Nahida probably has to pull out a book on how students should take care of themselves 😔

I imagine that when he’s writing his essays, there’s been times when his mind floats to you and he wonders what you’re doing. And when he looks down at what he’s written, he sees that he accidentally wrote your name on the paper right next to all this academic stuff. He erases it so quickly and is so glad you’re not here to see his blush.

(also eating up your various kuni interpretations… HE’S STILL KABU DEEP DOWN DON’T HURT ME LIKE THIS 💔) (but real) 

*sends you all my love* ❤️ 

PLEASE THAT'S SO HIM BEHAVIOR YK ?? it never ceases to amaze him just how easily you flow with what he gives you to quill your boredom, even if there's a high possibility it may not be quilled — a wanderer can hope, no? but much to his dismay; your boredom isn't one so easily quilled. not when his best bet is to just throw another essay some other scholar wrote and he gives you that look that especially says: here, read.

but despite how annoyed he may appear with your constant whining and pouting; he deep down loves how you, too, seek his affection. he perceives this whole ordeal as a good thing though, you've always been patient and rarely does he ever see you as the opposite so... maybe all he needs to do to test said patience is simply excuse himself by saying he has an essay to write which is a fucking lie 💀 but he likes to see you being a little annoyed. it's endearing to see many sides of you from his perspective.

more under the cut !!

as for the second scenario angst .. huhu 🤭 but in all seriousness it just lines up with how much of a perfectionist he tends to be whether he admits to it or not. it's obvious he's working hard, incredibly so, and that desire to perfect and fulfill doesn't stem from a “oh it's something i have to do” but more or so “i want to prove everyone wrong.” and that mindset tends to unfortunately eat at him to a point such a notion becomes intertwined with his previous beliefs — i will never be good enough. he'd think and manage to convince himself a little too easily. back then, whenever nahida would spot him in that state, she wouldn't even utter a word to reassure him because he knows what she'll say, and it's during those times he doesn't want to hear those words. it used to be incredibly difficult for nahida to get him off his chair and assure him that he's done enough, but in his eyes what he managed to finish was nowhere near enough.

and you're so right about nahida having to get a book on how students should take care of themselves ;; convincing to take a break takes both your and nahida's efforts combined. it's during such times nahida is reminded of how grateful she is for your presence because if there's another person wanderer is willing to listen to that isn't her; it's you.

i could go on and on about it but i think you already guessed this is already saved in my drafts and um, i am cooking both the fluff and angst in that one 🤭 but let's get into the fluff territory for a good minute — YES. ABSOLUTELY YES. darling already has two emotes both of which are named and i quote “zoned out.” it's practically second nature to him to just ( ಠ⁠_⁠ಠ ) ...

i like to imagine that it isn't limited to when he's writing, but that habit also seeps into the times he'd draw something in the midst of taking a break. at first, it starts with him doodling a random object, then something he's craving, and the moment he zones out while doodling to his heart's content... next thing he sees is that he drew something you like, something you usually tell him you crave, or even just draw you on autopilot. but in comparison to how he'd write your name on a research paper and immediately erase it; this empty page now filled with little things connected to you is one he keeps but never, ever let you know about.

and regarding my kuni interpretations — that's 3 am ayame for you lmao bestie wrote that in a daze 😭 and i may or may have not hyper analyzed that silly little thing i wrote back then lolol

*sends you all my love in return* (⁠/⁠^⁠-⁠^⁠(⁠^⁠ ⁠^⁠*⁠)⁠/🤍🤍

Promise Rings Chapter 8

(Definitely not edited)

Previous: Promise Rings Chapter 7

And we're back! The work has died down momentarily, so I can put some more writing on the internet (huhu). Anyways, I think it's time for another chapter of Promise Rings because I'm pretty sure I haven't posted another chapter in a hot second, so oops...

Anyways, new chapter with new adventures! I hope you like this one!

⭐⭐⭐

Age: 15

I could only close my eyes from the pain in my back as I tried to hold back my tears. I tried to control my breath to make the pain settle down, but the pain didn’t go away. It’s too painful to ignore.

“Oi, is everything o-” I heard the door swinging open and the sound of footsteps stopping. I willed myself to look at the guest at my door to see Tobio watching my figure closely. For a moment, he stared at me before carefully placing himself beside me on the bed. “Is it your shoulder?” he whispered as he checked my condition. I nodded, hesitating whether I wanted to tell him how I really felt.

“I’m not really sure why they hurt,” I muttered as his fingers carefully grazed over my shirt to check for any abnormalities. His fingers suddenly stopped on a spot between my shoulder blade and the spine, and I froze as he started to feel around the area.

“Karin-chan, what did you do during PE yesterday?” he questioned as he grabbed my shoulders to spin around.

“We did some water polo stuff like throwing the ball to a person-” I started, and I watched his face morph into an annoyed expression. “Wait, are you saying that I threw my shoulder out from that?” I questioned.

“Did you stretch properly because it feels more like you might have tore a muscle?” he shot back at him, and I slowly lowered my gaze. Well, he caught me, and I could feel his hard gaze on my head. “Karin-chan, I thought I told you to always stretch before PE,” he scolded me, and I started playing with my hands. He sighed, making me look at him. “Well, since you should get that checked out,” he started again, “what do you want to do? I’m not letting you go outside because, knowing you, you would want to do something active, but you need to let your shoulder heal properly if it’s what I think it is.” I pouted, trying to figure out what I wanted to do.

“Movie?” I questioned, looking outside the door to see the TV not being used at all. He shrugged, accepting the idea.

“I know your legs are fine, but can you get up?” Tobio questioned, knowing that I often used my arms to boost myself up from sitting. I carefully tried to get up but felt some pain from slouching. He carefully placed his arm around my waist to give me some support. With the extra support, I managed to straighten my posture but continued clinging onto him. Slowly, he guided me over to the couch before letting me go and walking towards the TV. “Which one?” he questioned as his hands picked through the long line of movies nearby.

“Ponyo,” I immediately answered. He chuckled at my answer as he picked it out of the group.

“Why am I not surprised?” I heard him mutter, and I started to feel tired holding the good posture for so long. Once he started playing the movie, he sat down beside me, and I rested my head against his shoulder. “Does it feel okay?” he questioned as his eyes ran up and down my body to check for any issues.

“Yeah, I’m fine,” I responded as he grabbed a blanket and wrapped it over our legs. “It feels like only my back needs to be straight, so I can still move my head,” I described as I felt his arm across my back. He nodded as he patted my head slightly. He turned towards the movie, and we quieted down in order to relive the story again.

Age: 16

Silence filled the room as we sat in silence and worked. While this was a rare occurrence, I definitely took advantage of it and worked on whatever I could while Tobio was occupied. While I stared at the essay that was due in a couple days, my eyes seemed to skim over the words quickly, my finger following the words.

“Karin-chan,” Tobio called for me from the bed. At first, I could barely hear it as I focused on the essay. From the corner of my eye, I notice Tobio pull up a chair and sit in it. “Karin-chan,” he called again, poking my cheek for my attention.

“Hm,” I barely hummed as I began revising a sentence, making my words more concise. I was too in the zone to specifically figure out what he needed.

“I’m tired of working,” he complained, trying to rest his head on the back of the chair. Although we’ve only been hanging out for a few hours, we have been only working on homework since he came in. I paused my work to look at him briefly.

“Tobio-kun, we need to finish our work,” I reminded him as I glared at him before returning my attention back to the screen to continue revising. I hear him huff and try to call my attention again. I proceeded to ignore him to make it clear that we were supposed to be working and not chatting. Considering that we were nearing the end of the school year, we needed to keep up our efforts to finish with high grades. From beside me, I hear him complaining about the workload as I neared the end of the essay.

For the final time, he called out with a pout, “Karin-chan.” I decided to give in and expected to glare at him. However, he surprised me with his face a few centimeters away from me. I froze in my spot as I tried to process what was happening. For all I knew, I could feel my heart beat out of my chest and the blood flooding my cheeks. “Can we take a break please?” Trying to calm myself down, I could only bring myself to nod, and I took my hands off the keyboard. I watched his eyes light up as he noticed my actions, springing up from his chair. He reached into his bag and immediately grabbed out the volleyball.

“Practice?” I questioned him, a bit confused. He nodded, his energy through the roof. I sighed and stood up from my desk and followed him into the backyard for some practice.

~~~

The bell finally rang, signaling the end of the day. As soon as the teacher finished class, I quickly packed my bag and plugged one earbud into my ear, listening to a playlist that Karin made. She insisted that I listened to these songs in order to get used to listening to English. Today was one of the rare days that practice was canceled, and I was going to walk home with her. I quickly walked through the hallways, getting to the exit to catch up with her. At the gate of the school, I noticed Karin-chan with earbuds in, texting on her phone.

“Karin-chan!” I called out from a few meters away. The song changed, and a few guitar strums played in my ear before the lyrics started.

Do you hear me? I’m talking to you. She seemed to move in slow motion as she pulled out an earbud and turned towards me. Her hair seemed to perfectly fly over her shoulder as her eyes met with mine. I never noticed how big her eyes were in comparison with some of the other girls in the school.

Across the water, across the deep blue ocean. Her paler skin contrasted her dark eyes and hair. Her nose came to a soft point, and her pink lips were slightly open as she stared at me. Even from a distance, I could notice her soft gaze on mine. Her head seemed to tilt as she noticed me just standing there.

Under the open sky. Oh my, baby I’m trying. The school uniform seemed to fit her body perfectly: her skirt didn’t seem too long, and the black blazer that matched her eyes sat comfortably around her shoulders. Her slender fingers seemed to lightly hold the earbud as the wind seemed to blow through the area, making her hair fly with the flow.

Boy, I hear you in my dreams. She pulled the other earbud out of her ear before she started coiling the wire around her phone. Carefully, she placed her phone into her bag before she tucked a few strands behind her hair.

I feel your whisper across the sea. As she approached me, she seemed to radiate maturity from just her walk. I felt my heartbeat against my chest as I watched my childhood best friend started running towards me.

I keep you with me in my heart. The pounds of my heart matched her feet hitting the ground as her hand raised up to make sure I knew she was there. I watched a bright smile grow on her face as her eyes crinkled to the point she couldn’t see much. I smiled back at her as time seemed to keep slowing down.

You make it easier when life gets hard. She suddenly leaped to stop her momentum, making her land in front of me. However, the momentum she built up was a bit too much, causing her to stumble forward slightly. Immediately, my hands went out to catch her, one holding onto her wrist and the other landing in between her shoulders. Her hands landed on my shoulder and chest, and she looked up at me with an innocent aura. I could hear my heart beating in my ears. Was Karin always this pretty?

“Hey, Tobio-kun!” she greeted me as I helped her stand up on her own feet. She smoothed down her skirt before asking, “Ready to go?” I could only nod as she hooked her arm with mine and started dragging me off of campus. I looked down at her, and something in my heart swelled.

I’m lucky I’m in love with my best friend. 

~~~

I watched the ball float through the air before curling down towards me. I quickly shifted my feet and quickly set the ball to Michimiya-san, our captain. I watched her hand quickly slam the ball into the court, scoring a point. The whistle was blown, and we looked at the score: set 2, 25-23; we won our first practice match of the season.

“Aw yeah!” Watabe-san cheered as we jumped around. We began high-fiving each other before we lined up for the end of the match. While we lined up to give our thanks to the cheering section, my eyes caught Tobio’s figure in the stands. I noticed him staring at me, and I gave him a small smile before I bowed with the rest of the team. When I looked up to find Tobio again, I noticed that he disappeared from his spot in the crowd, making me confused. Turning around, I sulked over to grab my stuff, giving myself the small signal out of habit. Looking up, I spotted Tobio standing by himself by the entrance. When he noticed me looking at him, he waved me over, and I rushed over to him.

When I ran over to him, I jumped to hug him, wrapping my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck. His arms wrapped around my waist as he muttered into my ear, “Congrats, Karin-chan.” 

Smiling widely, I whispered, “Thank you, Tobio-kun.” I rested my head on my shoulder, snuggling my face into the crook of his neck as I found Tobio not resisting the skinship before I felt some eyes on my back. Turning around towards the crowd behind us, I saw the team staring at us, and I quickly scrambled out of Tobio’s grasp and stood on the floor.

“Get a room you two!” Michimiya-san yelled from the bags. The entire team laughed at our antics as my cheeks started to redden.

“You would’ve done the same with Sawamura-san, Michimiya-san!” I yelled back at her. Even from a distance, I could tell that Michimiya-san’s cheeks were turning red and burning up. She quickly turned around and continued packing up her bag, appearing extremely flustered. From behind me, I heard Tobio chuckle as he rested his elbow on my head, leaning onto me.

“You weren’t kidding when you said that Michimiya-san really likes Daichi-san,” Tobio admitted, whispering into my ear. Laughing a little, I nodded slightly. I felt his hand move from my head to my shoulders. I felt my cheeks heat up a little from the contact. “Anyways,” Tobio started again, “you ready to go get some food?” Looking over at me, I looked back at him and nodded, trying to cover up how shy I was getting. He released his arm off of my shoulders before I ran over to the team to grab my bag.

“So you’re going on a date with Kageyama-kun, Yamaji-chan?” Watabe-san questioned with her teasing tone. Aside from my cheeks, I felt the heat in my ears as I comprehended the word “date.”

“I-It’s not a date!” I refuted, my voice a little too loud. I realized I caught the attention of some people including Tobio, and I flashed everyone an awkward smile before looking down, trying to hide my face. Around me, I heard the girls giggle along with the coaches.

“Now, now,” Aihara-san caught the team’s attention, “let’s give Yamaji-chan some breathing room before she gets too hot and flustered around Kageyama-kun.” She giggles as she teases me more. Feeling somewhat betrayed, I finished fixing my bag before giving my farewells to the girls.

As I walked further away from the group, Megumi loudly called out, “Have fun on your date, Care Bear!” Her loud voice echoed against the spacious area of the gym, scaring me for a moment. Turning my head to glare at her, I notice all the girls giggling at my reaction. Before I could say anything in response, I felt something warm grabbing my wrist to turn me around before feeling Tobio’s arm around my shoulders. In the background, I could hear all the girls squealing, and as much as I wanted to turn around, Tobio forced me to keep looking forward. With the weight of his arm, I felt myself leaning forward with the extra weight sitting on my shoulders.

As we were walking out the gym into the golden hour of the day, Tobio’s arm fell off my shoulders as we began walking home. After all the comments from the team, there was no way I could face him right now; I betted my cheeks were extremely red right now. My eyes were lowered to the ground, trying to avoid any sort of awkward moment with Tobio. I felt something warm in my right hand, causing me to look up.

“Oi, I know that you’re thinking about the match, but you can’t get lost,” he responded as he placed our hands into his hoodie pocket. Nodding, I let him cling onto my hand as we walked down the sidewalk, enjoying the last sunlight beams of the day. “Oh yeah,” he started again, “what’s up?” 

Laughing at how he just remembered our routine, I responded, “There are some things that I could work on, but that’s just because it’s been awhile since my shoulder injury.” He nodded in response as we continued our way down the street. “Oh right!” I suddenly remembered. Turning his head towards me for a moment, he gave me some affirmation that he was listening. “Someone confessed to me earlier today,” I nervously chuckled a little. Over the past year at Karasuno, a few guys had confessed, but I wanted to try dating while I was still young. I felt his hand slightly twitch against mine before squeezing it a little tighter.

After a moment or two of silence, he finally whispered, “Did you accept?” Gulping for a second, I nodded; I had accepted fully knowing that I had no chance with Tobio even if I tried. The guy just loves volleyball so much, and this guy was kind of cute. Plus, holding hands and hugging is normal between friends, right? Honestly, I can’t just wait for him to fall for me anyways. “Well,” his voice began trailing off, “congrats, Karin-chan.”

“Thanks,” I whispered as I felt his hand release mine. I slipped my hand out of his pocket as we continued walking in silence. The atmosphere was almost suffocating even though we breathed in the clean air.

“So who is it?” Tobio questioned, finally breaking the silence.

“Just a classmate,” I responded quietly. I didn’t bother telling him who exactly it was, knowing that he could care less. Feeling his radiating anger, I closed my mouth, and we continued walking in silence. How come he was so quiet from this? Jealous.

Magic Lantern - Monument: Chapter 3

Location: ES Prop Room Characters: Subaru, Sora, Natsume & Tsumugi

< That evening. >

Subaru: Ohh. So what happened after that?

Did things to come an end like usual? Like everything’s basically resolved?

Sora: HaHa~♪ But nothing has been “resolved” this time~ Just look!

Subaru: Look, you say…? What’s this? It just looks like a huge confusing mecha thing that’s been put together.

Is it a brainwashing device to brainwash all the locals in the area into following ES’ ideas?

Sora: HiHi~? That would be convenient to have if it were true~

Not everyone has the ability to change people’s hearts and it’s not something one should do. No one has the right to do that – Not even magicians or fortune tellers~

All Sora, Master~ and Senpai can do is change our own hearts – Sora supposes this is a device that will interfere with that?

Subaru: I don’t really get it! But I’m glad. You’re looking better than before, Yellow Kid!

Sora: Huh? Sora thought you were going to call Sora “Soran”?

Subaru: Really? I forgot! I say whatever I feel like saying when I feel like it!

But it looks like my random words can hurt people deeply sometimes…

I might’ve hurt them but it doesn’t look like I realise that.

I was a little bit worried about you, Yellow Kid. I was afraid I might’ve said something uncalled-for.

Sora: Sora doesn’t think so at all?

If Paisen– Sparkling Onii-san didn’t give me the magic lantern, Sora thinks Sora would still be standing in the same spot~

Subaru: Yellow Kid, you’re always agreeing and trying to match up with what other people are saying, huh… You’re such a good kid – It’s painful to see.

Sora: ? A good kid is painful to see?

Subaru: Maybe I’m just asking for the impossible. There was a time when I tried to do the same thing but I couldn’t and ended up being alone…

Maybe I’m jealous of you since you can actually do that.

That’s why it kinda touches a nerve and I can’t help but poke my nose into your affairs.

Sora: ………?

Subaru: It’s great you were able to meet some nice people before you overdid things and broke, huh, Sora Harukawa-kun.

Sora: Yes! There are only good people around Sora!

…But that might only be true because Sora chose to be distant from everyone else.

Maybe it’s because Sora put a distance between us so that they won’t be able to see the bad and ugly parts.

Sora realised that and that’s why Sora decided to step out on his own this time. Sora wants to step out far enough so that we can see each other’s faces.

Sora believes that Master~ and Senpai wouldn’t think Sora is creepy if they see Sora up close. No, Sora hoped they would accept everything about Sora.

Subaru: Yeah? On second thought, I guess I really don’t get it! I didn’t know you were this bad at talking to people!

Sora: HuHu~♪

Subaru: But I think you’ll be fine. Natsume and Blue-senpai are probably good at keeping conversations going.

It looks like both of them are used to sensing what the other person’s feeling, anyway.

That’s exactly why you end up thinking you won’t have to use your head if those two are doing the talking, right?

Sora: Yes, that’s the issue. It’s a big issue.

But magicians are people who can skillfully solve any problem with their miraculous magic?

Natsume: ⲏᴇ𐰛, ᴎᴏⱳ. ᵴᴛᴏᴘ ᴃᴏᴛⲏᴇᴙᴉᴎꞡ ᴍ𐰛 ᴄⲏᴉᴌᴆ, ᴃᴀᴙᴜ-ᴋᴜᴎ.

Subaru: Ah, Natsume! Long time no see! Why don’t you start attending our normal classes too?

Natsume: I already have my hands full of my own thinGS. It’ll be fine as long as I get a high enough score for the final exams, rigHT?

Subaru: You can only be a “student” while you’re one, so you should just make the most out of it~

Natsume: That’s none of your busineSS. I want to be an adult as fast as I cAN – I’m tired of being treated as a child who can’t do anything anymoRE.

Subaru: Ahaha. Natsume, you wanna grow up quickly and stand next to Blue-senpai, right?

Natsume: WhO’S Blue-senpai? I’ve never heard of this person in my liFE.

Natsume: AnywAY, Sora, I’ve brought the tools we neED.

The blue and shaggy person is looking up how we can use them right nOW.

Tsumugi: I’m actually starting to wonder if the shagginess of my hair is now at your preferred amount of shagginess, Natsume-kun.

If you hated it, you’d pretend you never saw it and never mention it, right?

Natsume: WoAH, can you not erase your presence and stand behind mE!?

Tsumugi: I didn’t mean to do that at all~ Natsume-kun, you’ve let your guard down quite a bit recently.

Natsume: I had no choiCE. It seems the war within the school will be cleaned up one way or another if nothing continues to happEN. I feel like I can finally breathe agaIN.

There are still a few seeds of anxiety here and there, thouGH. I’ve predicted how some of those things might turn out and made the necessary preparations for thEM – It’s only realistic if you never wish for things to be “perfect”, rigHT?

Tsumugi: Hehe. Students have it nice~ They always have a stopping point.

Adults have to keep on running – We’re not even allowed to stop in place. It’s a hellish marathon.

We have work that needs to be done every single day and we have our hands full just trying to deal with it all. It’s better than having no work to do, though.

You can control that hecticness with money and power to a certain degree when you’re an adult. Not that our agency has either of those things.

Natsume: What is the deal with our agenCY…? It feels like we’re always set on hard moDE…

WeLL, it’s nice that we can basically run it however we like, thouGH. It is a problem that we have to deal with things that an idol shouldn’t be handling in the first plaCE.

Tsumugi: Hehe. That’s how Yumenosaki has always done things, so we’re used to that, right?

We might have to really make use of what we learnt at Yumenosaki in the future.

Maybe we can be a bit greedier while “Knights” is making money and “Double Face” is keeping things in check. 

Natsume: HmM. It’s better than our current situation since we’re just being used by the people around us in whichever way is convenient for thEM.

If we’re too reckless and end up making people hold grudges against us, a war will break out between the four agenciES.

Peace never lasts long within ES, after aLL.

Tsumugi: I suppose you’re right. I have a feeling the people who love to have wars won’t be able to hold back any longer.

We must be prepared for those emergencies.

There has been an increase in suspicious rumours lately. Like Godfather’s inheritance or whatnot about “Gatekeeper”...

[mirrorballwhoistrying]

I wake up and it's October (28.10.2023)

I just feel a bit keyboard moody today I guess. Like October isn't over yet but I guess I should reflect on it before it flashes before my eyes and it's 2024 already.

October is also mental health awareness month, but I haven't caught up on my TikTok content for a while. Partly because I was occupied with finishing the AFP application and m4i program I guess. Another reason is I don't if I should carry on the way I created content on TikTok like before. It felt like hit or miss most of the time and I want to focus more on FB content.

A good thing was, that I finally informed my manager about my resignation! I'm a really indecisive person but once I made a certain decision, I would be really stubborn with it. This time I felt like it was really time. I told BKT about it and some close friends as well. I didn't know what to do after that, but I knew I had to make this decision instead of keep thinking about what-ifs.

We did a shooting again for Pchum Ben for KPComms. It felt redundant since I did it last year already, but it was fun still. I'm just glad that last year H asked me to do the shooting and opened up an opportunity for me to do something I never thought I could.

I also met V, V, and BKT for dinner. It felt good to reconnect with them once in a while. They represent a world that's familiar but also different from where I currently am.

Wow, I wrote all these and they all happened in the first 3 days. I think I spent the first week trying to finish the guidebook for SEA Fokus as well. The experience was traumatizing as well to have a manipulator in the team that used the project solely for individual purposes. It was tiring but at least I was happy to put all my efforts into something for once since the project started.

The exhibition day was not bad. I got to meet and connect with many people, but there was always this underlying feeling that I was not doing and socializing enough.

The next day I literally had to go to the pagoda with my relatives. Damn, there's a lot going on in October for real. My uncle still asked offensive jokes. Should I respond back in a rude way next time? I can't believe that this time I feel like I did well. I think my brother was more under pressure about the topic of marriage.

Just a day before Mental Health Awareness Day, I finally finished editing a video. That's the gift for the day. I'm just so happy that despite my insistent schedule of posting, people still care enough about my new video. but well, it's still no excuse to keep doing this.

On the 10th, I attended the opening orientation for the Chevening boot camp. I really am involved in everything and everywhere. I literally sat next to Chermeng and also met Piton. I can't believe it and they were also really friendly at the same time! They were really caring. I'm so glad to make new friends! I can't believe that Piton said he had watched my videos on TikTok. I'm so glad to make friends outside my usual circle!

I finally did the 3rd coaching session. I guess I made it so broad that I couldn't achieve what I set out to do in the beginning. There are only 3 sessions left. I also met March over the weekend and got to connect with him about his master's program goal. I feel like people really start to see, admire, and want to connect with you and vice versa when we do something that we truly care about.

Nothing super significant happened in the second half of the month to be honest. Mostly, it was all about preparing for the Chevening app. I attended the 2nd and 3rd sessions and I felt so inspired! I got connected with some people outside my circle too including a chief editor at Fresh News, and an employee at UNICEF. Wow! But what will I make out of this connection though? Let's see.

Piton also offered to review my essays too! Huhu, what did I do to deserve this! I also met b Ratha to ask for his pieces of advice about AAS. He provided some really interesting insights and ideas as well! I'm so grateful.

There came this week. I missed out the 4th session because I didn't finish my essays yet. I must say during the applications, I also feel like I discovered bits and pieces of myself as well. I really have deep respect for b Nara for organizing all this.

We also did a Halloween shooting this year. It felt underwhelming but whatever. I also finally organized Social Hour 2 with my team. It was really chaotic for me to organize the Zoom but I'm glad it was my first time to do it!

This month, it felt like the month of connections really. I got to connect with some people and deepen the connection as well like 7-8 people. I also did an interview yesterday with B Samang. I got to meet several people. I'm so grateful.

There was this one problematic guy but I should never let him determine my whole experience!

I had this one question at the start of the month about the negative feeling I had about networking. Why do we end up seeing people just for pure value and our own benefit? I think I got an answer. Networking is about building, taking, giving & maintaining. That one guy that ruined my perspective was he was lacking in giving. His whole networking experience was to see how he can take advantage of people which is really problematic. During the Chevening sessions, I discovered how networking could lead to such meaningful movement or collaboration. I should carry on this mindset.

I asked a speaker during a session about setting unrealistic goals. He said it wasn't wrong though because even if we can't achieve it, we would end up further than we could ever thought.

There was this underlying feeling about me being a jack of all trades. I kind of had to accept that I'm a multifaceted person with several passions. It's like we're going to watch the sunset. It's not wrong to stop at certain points to enjoy different views or take some turns. Life isn't about the destination, it's about the journey as well.

I still struggle with one point though about conflict confrontation. Maybe I'll discover how to handle that better soon!

I should start thinking about my next plan soon as well. My content plan? Erasmus+? Eras tour? Taiwan trip? EU volunteer?

Overall, I feel kind of satisfied with this October experience really.

hi! can i request domestic fluff with Yuzuru and Rei, Eg. Waking up together in the mornings? I'll be looking forward to your writing!

ahh! I've awaken from my slumber! I've never written for yuzuru, so apologies if it's a tat bit out of character ★

♡︎ — yuzuru & rei | waking up with their s/o!

‣ tws / cws: none

‣ reader: gender neutral - they/them

‣ author's note: zzzzz..

☆ — YUZURU.

it's like straight out of a fairy tale! It's so majestic that it feels like a real daydream— at least on a good day

waking up with yuzuru is very gentle and sweet, he's removing the shared blanket that has fallen all over the place and telling you to get up since it's gonna be a long day, and so he can make the bed again!

With waking up early you two have plenty of time to get ready and talk about all things you'd want to ramble about it. You both talk about what your schedules are for the day and if it is possible to go have any time together ( afterward working for tori all day ). It’s pretty restful. “good morning dear, time to wake up. I'll prepare breakfast”

after that, he's set to go make you breakfast in the kitchen while you get dressed for the day before going hold onto your dear boyfriend as he cooks up a delicious meal! (≧▽≦)

he'll let you cling onto him while he cooks, only this one time, he doesn't want you to get hurt so don't get too close! alright? It's hate to have you burn your skin with hot grease. you also love to steal stuff quickly off the pan when he looks away or to grab something. Yeah, the hot food definitely burned your tongue, but it was yummy! So it was worth the sacrifice. Yet, he'll get all parently on you afterward at how you shouldn't have done that!

“do not be so careless, please ...” he sighed, leaving a little bit of reassurance that you didn't do anything wrong and there's no harm in picking a Lil food off the pan, by a little pat on the head.

afterward, it's time to eat~ you always smile brightly when the food is placed on the table all warm and hot while you two can share lovely thoughts and memories, what a domestic life you two have Dontcha think?~ huhu

little notes can always be left for you when he wakes up before you:

“I have to go soon. . . please take good care of yourself and remember not to work yourself too hard.”

you smile at these simple show of affection, it's nothing big or is it anything small... it's just sweet, wishing that these days you spin with him last forever.

as much as he wishes he could spend all his time with you, on the week as much as he does on the weekend--he does have his duties.. and so do you, but there's one lovely thing to come back home to, resting next to each other and cuddling up to wake up to that domestic feeling again~

☆ — REI

one word: crazy.

waking up with rei? it's quite a mess hence the fact the twins could barge in any living second— but first things FIRST. he's a late riser. Though, this was formed from his silly vampire appeal, weak to sunlight and sleeping his hours away to store them for midnight and to keep you up at inhumanly hours, but with two twins who casually wakes him up at 10:00 every morning on weekdays? he's trying to wake up at around 10 or somewhat near himself

eitherway, you're the first one to wake up. when he does eventually wake up, he just murders you with tickles and blowing raspberries over your skin~☆

rei adores these moments more than any other surely! waking up with his beloved. he can beat you to it~ ( ꈍᴗꈍ) when he wants to-- so he can use the time to appreciate your beautiful features and how lovely you look even while you're asleep, whether you're laying on top of him or next to him before you wake up! He'll always sneak a glance once he is awake because you are just like the moonlight for him! He's so alive when he's within it! (≧◡≦) ♡ he's like your own personal pillow.

“rei, please let me go” in an attempt to get him to set you free, you pout. And he just let out his charming little chuckle and whisper a sweet. “good morning.” and set you free ♡︎ his voice is below a whisper really, something so low that only it could only be heard in the comfort of you two's embrace. caressing your face with a very sleepy smile that makes his tiny Lil fangs visible. and some days, his voice will be hoarse, and it's oh so very funny.

you usually end up cooking breakfast while rei drinks his tomato juice bottles. The whole cooking for him thing? ends up with rei trying to help out-- but, then he burns it so you have to whip up a whole new creation. Don’t worry!! he apologizes and makes up for it with cuddles and kisses

He can pause his whole schedule just to spend time with you, he doesn't wanna rush the morning-- but spend it with you as much as he can, even it is not very leader like. I'm sure kaoru, adonis and koga won't be too upset! ☆

[mod-kyoko]

Here I am, on my way to request yet again-

So will it be okay for me to ask for kokichi and miu with a fem s/o who is a nerd and shorter than them. But she unexpectedly knows how to fight and she kicks some boys who were to harass her in front of them?

Well if this request seems confusing, you're free to either ask me or deny it! Up to you! And please do take your time doing this. No rush!

i really like this request huhu

also writing this kicked me in the ass for some reason ive got a block

here you go

kokichi and miu with a s/o who can unexpectedly fight

kokichi was usually the one to stand up for you when someone was bothering you

he would just bully them until they left you alone

he assumed that you were too timid for confrontation

but his view was changed when one day, you snapped

you and kokichi were at the mall shopping

you happened to get separated in a larger store, but if wasn't a big deal at first

you noticed an older man was following you

you would have just ran to kokichi's side so the guy would get the hint, but you didn't know where kokichi was

what made you snap was when the guy tried to put his hands on you

you slapped his hand out of the way and yelled

"leave me alone!"

the man didn't back down, instead he started yelling back

"didn't your parents ever tell you to respect men? bitch."

you lost it, immediately slapping him in the face

you expected him to run away like a little bitch but instead he raised his hand at you, swearing at you

just then, kokichi appeared, having heard the yelling

when he saw this stranger about to slap you, his heart stopped and he rushed forward, but you had it under control

in two seconds flat you had the man on the ground with your foot digging into his back

you had somehow flipped him over, so he fell to the ground, and while he was flailing around trying to get up, you pinned him down with the pure strength of your leg

"get lost, you fuckin' creep," you said

as the man scrambled away, you turned around to face your partner, dusting off your clothes

though you seemed unphased by the incident, kokichi was standing there with his jaw open to the ground

you chuckled as you noticed a blush coating his cheeks

"s/o... that was kind of hot... but don't do it again, okay?"

he walked over to you and wrapped his arm around your shoulders, then led you away from the scene

from then on, kokichi would go around bragging about how he has such a badass s/o

if you ever fought someone again while he was around, he wouldn't even worry

he would just sit back and get some popcorn, while taunting the person you're fighting

so you and miu were at a party, and your social battery was running out

miu went off somewhere to get a drink for both of you, when you heard a couple people yelling

in the next room a group of people were standing in a crowd, and in the center were two guys drunk off their asses

they looked like they were about to fight, both yelling about some girl

you sighed, not wanting to get involved, but someone shoved you and you fell

when you got up, you noticed someone was now screaming at you for being in the way

it was one of the guys who looked like he was about to fight the other

you stood up, glared at him, and then tried to walk away

before you could escape, though, he grabbed you by the arm and yanked you back

with a grunt, you clawed at his hands so he would release you, but he wouldn't let go

you decided to resort to your *secret* fighting skills

you winded back your arm, and then went in for an uppercut to the jaw

he knocked backwards, but didn't fall down

instead, he came running at you, screaming something unintelligible

you smirked, knowing a drunk man was no match for you

with a swift kick in the gut, you had him curled up on the floor in a ball, crying

miu had heard the ruckus, and was pulled into the room by a concerned bystander

"oi, s/o, do i have to beat someone up?" she cracked her knuckles

then she noticed the man bawling on the floor, and her eyes darted between the two of you

"did you do that?" she yelled

you nodded, suddenly feeling extremely aware of the eyes on you in the room

"fucking awesome! my s/o is a fighter!" she ran over to you and rested a hand on your waist "you'll get a reward later," she winked, being her usual seductive self

some of the crowd was whispering to each other, and staring miu down, including the injured guy on the floor

with a sigh, miu grabbed your hand

"we're leaving, these weirdos are fuckin' lame."

after the two of you were alone, miu pulled you into a passionate kiss because she was so proud of you, not to mention the thought of you fighting someone was pretty hot

i love writing for miu <3

[pisceserena]

Hello, Serena!! I saw your last Yuno imagine and it inspired me to request too! So, if you don’t mind, can I please request a Yuno x BlackBull!gn!reader? Plot: In episode 40, right before the Seabed Temple mission, the reader goes out with Noelle, Charmy and Vanessa to buy swimsuits. When Yuno, Klaus and Mimosa thought there was a robbery and went into the store to check it out, the reader asks for Yuno's opinion on the swimsuit they were trying on.

A/N: Hi! Thank you so much for this! I hope I gave it justice huhu. Will try to write more Yuno stuff in the future! I hope you like it. <3

wordcount: 944

Yuno Grinberryallx BlackBull! GN! Reader

The Black Bulls rejoiced and couldn’t help but feel excited when Yami announced that you all would be going to the beach. Asta and Magna were chanting “beach” over and over again, Vanessa was laying on the couch already thinking about drinking a cold beer under the sun, Finral was practicing how to make drinks, hoping to use it as a way to flirt with girls. Charmy was thinking of all the seafood she could possibly eat. Gordon was mumbling things to himself and like most of the time, you didn’t really understand it, but you guessed it was probably related to the mission given. Gauche was asking Captain Yami what he should get Marie, while Luck was looking forward to wrestling with a shark.

From your place in the room, your eyes moved to Noelle who looked worried and completely out of place in a room full of thrilled people. As you got closer to her, you heard her mumbling “swimsuit” and how she doesn’t have one making you smile.

You laid a hand on the royal’s shoulder. “Glad to know I’m not the only person who’s worrying about what to wear.” Noelle drops her hands from her face and looks at you. “You don’t have a swimsuit too?” You shook your head to answer her question. “What will we do?”

“Unlike you, I’m not really worried about what to wear because the person I want to impress isn’t coming.” Your eyes traveled to Asta, Noelle follows your line of vision and flushes. She turns away getting defensive. “I don’t know what you’re talking about. As a royal, I’m supposed to look my best no matter where I am.” her arms crossed and face in a false snobbish expression. “ If you don’t have one, you can borrow one of mine.” Your laughter gets cut when the two of you hear Vanessa’s voice from behind. The bikini, if you can even call it that, she showed Noelle making you choke.

Needless to say, Noelle didn’t want to wear what Vanessa offered. “Alright, maybe we can go shopping for one?” you suggested instead.

So, here you guys were. Vanessa, Noelle, Charmy and you are currently in one of the shops trying your best to look for a swimsuit. You went through the rack, trying to look for something that’s your style. At this point, you’ve lost count of how many racks you’ve scanned and suits you’ve tried on. You were about to give up.

Your mind flashed to a certain Golden Dawn member making your face flush. You suddenly halted in your actions, realizing that Asta was bound to share stories to his best friend. Now, you didn’t want to just find the right swimsuit, you wanted to find the perfect one.

You shook your head, motivation filling you making you resume your actions. From your place, you can hear Vanessa and Noelle squabbling over who knows what, and Charmy…you weren’t exactly sure where she was, but she was somewhere in the store.

You sighed, just about ready to give up when something caught your eye. Smiling to yourself, you take it out of the rack and head over to the bickering pair. “Found something you like?” Vanessa asks the two pausing momentarily. “I did! I’m going to go try it out.” You say pointing to the fitting rooms.

You turn, trying to check every angle in front of the mirror and smile. You looked good and it hugged your body perfectly. Wanting a second opinion you step out and walk towards Noelle and Vanessa. “Alright, how do I look?” you ask eyes cast downward and double checking its fit.

When you look up to see the pair, you freeze, locking eyes with the one person you expected to see the least. “Yu-Yuno?” golden irises stare into yours, mouth slightly ajar. As if realizing that you were both staring, you turned away avoiding eye contact. Both your cheeks flushed. Yuno coughs awkwardly and looked around the store. “Swimsuits?” he asked, trying to clear the awkward air.

“Yes, little Golden Dawn boy. We’re going to the ocean tomorrow.” Vanessa says completely oblivious to the awkwardness hanging in the room. The witch continued to explain how you and Noelle had nothing to wear making Yuno’s eyes turn back to you. Vanessa went on explaining before turning to face you. “What do you think Yuno?” Vanessa asks pushing you forward, giving you a knowing smirk.

Yuno’s eyes rake your form, before he turns away, face pink, mumbling about how good it looks on you. Feeling a bit more confident with his compliment, you give him a flirtatious smile.

“Are you just fooling around instead of working again?” asks Klaus adjusting his glasses and trying to recover from his intense nosebleed. “How rude! This is for a mission.” Explains Vanessa. A secret mission-” you clarified, before confidently staring straight at the black haired boy and giving him a smirk. “Want to come?” you ask in the most flirtatious voice you could muster.

Deep inside, Yuno was about to blow a fuse, he didn’t know how much longer he could last. He wasn’t prepared to be greeted by you looking like, that and it didn't help that you were teasing him. He takes a step back not making any eye contact. “We don’t have any spare time on our hands, so I’ll pass.” he replies. It was clear in his voice he was trying to keep his composure. “Bummer.” you mutter as you watched the Golden Dawn members retreat.

“You should get that. It looks great on you.” Were Yuno’s last words before his figure disappeared from your view.

Cute little brother | Lucifer & Satan (Platonic)

A/N: Took more than a month, but it's finally here! Sweet @otomiya-tickles and I planned this little event last Valentine's Day and this is the result on my part!

I hope you all enjoy it! Especially the anon that won the event, huhu.

Summary: Lucifer just wants to finish his work, but thanks to certain little brother of his, that seems like a difficult task to do. Said little brother should be punished!

Words: 2775 (under the cut)

Lucifer stood in front of his office. Hand on the knob. He really didn't want to get in.

He was tired. Drained. Hoping to relax a bit during dinner time, but he kept thinking, in the back of his head, about the endless amount of paperwork waiting for him inside his office.

Would Lord Daivolo be too angry if he didn't finish this up tonight? Probably not, but Lucifer knew he wouldn't be able to sleep thinking about those damn papers.

Was he a little too hard on himself? Yes, he was, but letting out a long sigh, he finally opened the door and stepped in. The paperwork was still there, of course, however...

"What the f-

He quickly closed the door behind him, fearing that Diavolo would suddenly appear behind him and would see the mess that was his office.

All those documents waiting for him all afternoon were scattered all over the office floor: wrinkled, torn and even... bitten?!

Lucifer gasped, and taking another step forward, he found footprints on some of the papers. It was a rather tiny footprint and before he could hear a soft purr coming from his chair, he was already taking out his D. D. D and taping on the face of a certain brother of his.

"What?" Satan answered, he was a little breathless.

"Satan, come to my office immediately,"

"Hah?!" Satan said and Lucifer heard rustling of clothes as Satan raised from wherever he was sneaking under, highly probably, looking for the cat. "What for? I'm in the middle of som-

"Come here, I said. Right now."

It was silent on the other side of the line for a few seconds before Satan reluctantly agreed. He hung up first and Lucifer couldn't do anything else but let out another long sigh- there it went, his chance to sleep at least a few hours tonight.

Lucifer turned his head to look at the tiny cat pleasantly curled on top of his chair, fast asleep.

Lucifer chuckled humorlessly, "at least you're having a nice sleep, hm?" If Lucifer petted it, it was a secret between him and the cat.

A few minutes later, he heard a single knock against the door and with a soft flick of his hand, the door unlocked on its own.

"Come on in."

"What the hell do you... want..." Satan widened his eyes as soon as he saw the mess Lucifer's office was, his cheeks turning a little pink when he noticed the tiny footprints on the papers on the floor.

Lucifer raised an eyebrow and crossed his arms over his chest. "Would you mind explaining this?"

Satan gasped. "W-What?! How, how am I supposed to know?!" He said defensively. "It's not my problem you don't clean up your office, Lucifer," he said with a smirk, trying to hide his nervousness. "It seems like the perfect older brother, Avatar of Pride, can't even keep his office clean, huh? You're a mess."

Lucifer fought the urge to roll his eyes as he stared at his brother. "I thought I said no more cats in the House of Lamentation, Satan."

Satan flinched a little. "W-What makes you think I-

Lucifer sighed for the umpteenth time that night as he spinned his chair around. Satan widened his eyes when he found the sleeping kitty.

"I- I didn't-

"I don't have any idea how it got here," Lucifer started, his voice severe. "And I honestly don't care, but look at all this mess, Satan. These papers, I needed to finish up this paperwork tonight, but now I have to get new copies and of course you're going to help out," Lucifer said, starting to clean up the mess off his desk, even making a face of disgust when he found a ball of fur near his cup.

"What?!" Lucifer looked up. "Of course I won't help!"

"Satan, stop acting like a child-

"A child?!" Lucifer wanted to kick himself in the face. He really had to say that at this moment, huh? "So if I don't follow your stupid rules then I'm a child?"

Lucifer growled in the back of his throat as he pinched the bridge of his nose. "If you don't help me out, then you'll be punished in some other way," he said and Satan shut his mouth. "I'm giving you the chance to choose, so take it or get punished, your choice."

Lucifer stared at Satan, his brother looked down at the mess on the floor, even wincing a little when he noticed the bitten papers and, just as Lucifer followed his sight, he found that some papers were even wet and he felt like crying on the spot- his beautiful and perfect office, why-

“Fine,” Satan said and Lucifer turned his eyes to look at him. “I choose punishment.”

“Really now?”

Lucifer wanted to groan. He really hoped Satan would choose to help him get the copies. They were just copies, for Heav- Diavolo’s sake! But he knew his brother better than anyone, Satan must’ve noticed how tired Lucifer was, and what caused him more pleasure than seeing his older brother suffering?

Probably just cats.

“Suit yourself.”

As Lucifer tried to quickly come up with a punishment, the cat woke up and it ran to Satan as soon as it saw him. Satan caught it in his arms and Lucifer arched an eyebrow when he saw him smiling softly at the animal.

He couldn't help but stare at the scene. He would never say his brothers are cute, at least not in front of them, but seeing Satan smiling and even blushing faintly as the cat climbed up his arm until it was seated on his shoulder, scratching behind its ear- Lucifer though that he looked quite adorable.

Weird. Can he look just as cute on a normal basis? Of course not.

"Hehehey." Lucifer raised both eyebrows now as he heard that soft giggle coming from Satan. "What did I tell you ahahabout it?" Satan whispered, raising his shoulder to try and stop the kitten from nuzzling against his neck.

Lucifer widened his eyes slightly at the sudden idea popping inside his head. He tried to shake it off, that was way too childish and stupid, but fuck, he wanted to finish up soon! He could convince Satan to help him… even if it was doing something like this.

"Okay fine, you might as well let go of the cat." Lucifer saw Satan gulping as he stared back at him before he let the cat on the floor, purposely placing it above one paper, making Lucifer's eyebrow twitch.

The kitten ran back to Lucifer’s chair and he narrowed his eyes, shaking his head softly. “Last chance, Satan. You can help me out or receive the punishment.”

“Do you think I’m scared of you, Lucifer?” Satan asked, crossing his arms above his chest. “What’s the worst thing you could do? Hang me upside down from the ceiling?”

Lucifer’s mouth twitched, seeing Satan’s smug grin. If he was feeling any remorse from doing this childish thing, not anymore.

“Fine,” he said and with a swift move, he was right behind Satan.

“Wha- haah!” Satan barely had time to gasp before having Lucifer’s hands latching to his sides. “H-Hey! What are- ack! S-Stop!”

“Oh?”

Lucifer had started to squeeze up and down Satan’s sides. He tried to be gentle and, thankfully, Satan was so shocked that his only reaction was to tense up and clamp his arms against his sides, not causing much trouble as Lucifer tried to find the right pressure to make his brother laugh.

“Lucifer!” Satan nearly yelled. “The f-fuu-ck are you d-doING!”

Lucifer bit the inside of his cheek, trying to hold back a smile, but it was honestly impossible: Satan let out the most high pitched shriek he had ever heard before… coming from a demon and one of his brothers, of course.

“Are you a ticklish person, Satan?” Lucifer stated the obvious and before he could speak again, Satan finally let out the brightest giggles ever, surprising Lucifer.

“N-Nohohahaha! N-Not thihihihis!” Satan giggled and Lucifer nearly gaped in amaze, his fingers stopping slightly, but then quickly speeding up with the exact pressure that made Satan let out those giggles. “Luhuhucifeheher!”

Lucifer knew Satan tried to sound angry, but his laughter was so bright and, goodness forgives, so sweet that he thought Satan was actually enjoying this- but of course he knew his brother.

“I gave you a choice, Satan,” Lucifer said, getting bored of just tickling Satan’s sides. “You chose this, now take it.”

“I dihihidn’t choose thihi- ah! Stahahap!” More high pitched giggles poured out of his mouth when Lucifer moved to tickle his stomach: fingers gently clawing at the muscles around Satan’s belly button.

Lucifer could see Satan’s ears turning bright red and he suddenly thought that, even if himself was also embarrassed about this situation, this was, in fact, the perfect punishment for his naughty brother- something definitely humiliating. His plan to convince him to get those copies might work!

The clawing to Satan’s stomach was working wonders. He bent over and finally moved one of his hands to wrap around Lucifer’s wrists. Lucifer couldn’t help but chuckle, he felt Satan’s fingers holding him, but he could barely feel the force trying to push him away.

“What is wrong, Satan? Why are you so weak?”

Satan squeaked when Lucifer moved one of his hands to repeatedly poke the curve of his waist.

“Fuhuhucking stohohohop!” Satan’s knees were giving up and before he could stop it, they both were falling.

Lucifer had to stop his punishment to hold himself up and Satan took the opportunity to try to escape, he rolled on his stomach and tried to claw away, but his older brother was faster, and quickly captured him by his sides, dragging him back until he could straddle his lower back, using his strong legs to keep him in place.

“Where do you think you’re going? We’re not finished yet,” Lucifer said with a smirk on his face and seeing an opening, he sneaked his hands under Satan’s arms, making him shriek with loud cackles.

“Did I find a good spot, Satan?”

“Stohohohohop touchihihing mehehe!” Satan laughed, kicking his legs and pressing his arms against his sides, trapping Lucifer’s hands against his tickle spot. “Enough! You peheheherv! Stahahaha!”

“Who’s a pervert? Is it so wrong wanting to hear my little brother's laughter?”

“Grohohohoss! Lucifeheheher! I’m seheherious!”

Lucifer chuckled. “Are you now?” Satan cackled louder when Lucifer vibrated his fingers right on the center of his armpits. “Very well. I will gladly stop if you promise to help me out with this mess your cat caused.”

Satan shook his head right away. “Nehehehever! I rahahather die be-befohohore hehehelping you!”

“Then I won’t stop,” Lucifer said with a nod. “Not until I get tired.”

Satan tried to growl, but Lucifer’s nimble fingers were surely destroying his armpits right on the spot. However, Lucifer knew this certainly wasn’t Satan’s worst spot, he’d seen his other brothers tickling each other hundreds of times before to know each and every of their spots.

“Last chance, Satan,” Lucifer warned, his fingers nestling against the hollows of Satan’s armpits, rubbing deep circles that nearly made Satan bang his forehead against the wooden floor. “Will you help me out?”

Satan shook his head. “N-Neahahaha! Never, dahahahammit!”

“Very well.”

Lucifer was thankful the walls of his office were soundproof, because the scream that left Satan’s mouth could be misinterpreted by a scream from someone being killed, but Lucifer had simply sunk his fingertips against Satan's ribs, clawing at the bones and in the spaces between them.

“What’s this? Is this your secret spot?”

“I’LL KIHIHILL YOU!” Satan shrieked with hysterical laughter. “N-Nohahahat fuhuhucking thehehere!”

Satan threw his head back and he arched his back up, trying to escape from Lucifer’s hold against his ribs, but Lucifer’s fingers easily followed him, playing with each bone to find the one that would make Satan go ballistic.

It didn’t take long, the closer he got to the most sensitive ribs, Satan’s laughter became more hysterical and he desperately tried to get a hold of Lucifer’s hands to push them away.

Lucifer was a bit too surprised. He had seen Satan being tickled before, he had seen him laugh wholeheartedly as his other brothers wrecked him, but it was the first time he did it. It was the first time he tickled Satan to pieces and he really couldn’t help but think, (for the second time that night), that his little brother was, in fact, really cute.

“Fuck! Fuhuhuhuck, Lucifeheheher!” Lucifer thought Satan would split his spine in two as he arched up one more time when he felt the vibrations of those gloved fingers against his middle ribs. “I c-cahahahan’t! Not thehehehere!”

Lucifer arched his eyebrow, was Satan begging? Hmm… not quiet.

“Not here? I think this spot is very good, Satan. You’re laughing so much.” He felt awkward teasing Satan, but what is a punishment if you don’t make the other party feel inferior, right?

“I hahahahate you! Leheheheave!” Satan squeaked and Lucifer had to bark out a deep laugh at that.

“You know how to stop this, Satan."

Lucifer saw with amusement how Satan kept shaking his head, refusing to help him out. But Lucifer was rather patient when he wanted to be and his quick fingers weren't even tired of tickling Satan's ribs.

"Luhuhuhucifer! I fuhuhuhucking- hah!" Lucifer seriously laughed out loud when the funniest snort made Satan's nose vibrate. "Okay! Okahahahaha-

"Oh?" Lucifer had to move a little to see if his brother had actually died, but to his surprise, he was still laughing, but no sound was coming from his mouth.

Better hit the iron when it's hot.

"Satan? Are you ready to help me out with those copies?" Satan snorted and he quickly nodded. "You cannot take your word back, do you hear? I'll do this over again." Satan shook his head and Lucifer stopped when he saw his cheeks blushing brightly. "Good."

He stopped and easily lifted himself, finally letting Satan breathe.

"Okay, you can start picking up those papers since you're over there, Satan."

He heard Satan's laugher dying down, then his gasps, trying to catch his breath and lastly, his angry mumbles as he started to pick up all of those bitten and wet papers.

"I hate you."

"You let me know daily," Lucifer answered, a smirk on his face as he gently moved his chair away, the kitten still asleep even after all that screaming coming from Satan.

Lucifer felt Satan's eyes on him… actually, on the cat. Was he worried Lucifer was going to throw it out? He looked over at his brother and he bit the inside of his cheek. He'd never seen him so… messed up.

His hair was all over the place, his green sweater wrinkled and his shirt untucked from his pants. He wouldn't be surprised if he found out he had lost one of his shoes- oh, he did.

"Satan, put your shoe on and please get these copies."

Satan mumbled something under his breath, clicking away on Lucifer's computer as Lucifer signed the documents. Lucifer could barely believe Satan was being this good. Was he traumatized after being tickled by him?

Lucifer chuckled and Satan growled.

"You're not allowed to do that ever again, Lucifer."

"I let you choose. Next time help me out and you won't be tickled again," Lucifer said with a soft shrug and Satan cringed.

"What do you mean next time? I won't be helping you ever again! I don't-

"Listen, Satan," Lucifer started and he looked up when Satan didn't say a word. He let out a long sigh. "You can keep the cat. But only that one. Just one single cat. One. And I hope it doesn't come into my office ever again nor the kitchen, do you hear?"

Satan beamed and Lucifer narrowed his eyes when he saw the tiniest of smiles pulling at the corners of Satan's lips.

"What? Really?! You're not lying, are you?!"

Lucifer chuckled, shaking his head. "If you promise it won't cause trouble, then you can have it."

Lucifer raised an eyebrow, Satan was nearly vibrating with excitement and, perhaps, feeling that Satan was happy, the kitten climbed back to his shoulder and nuzzled against his neck, drawing more of those sweet giggles out of Satan.

Yes, his brother was definitely cute when he wanted to. But that's a secret Lucifer will keep to his grave.

[charlieroll]

EDIT: i forgor to add that it has mentions of violence! it isnt too graphic but it is there

----------------------

Okay. So this wasn’t the prettiest of situations for you.

It was particularly cold that night, even for autumn, but you were busy tonight. Detective Sun and Detective Moon had been trying to catch you even harder than ever before, working longer shifts and looking on edge every time they saw you. They were acting weird, so weird that you didn’t have the time to look at the news. Until you had.

Your face was everywhere in those papers, saying all those… crimes you’ve committed. You immediately paid that newspaper and flew to your base, ready to read it all. Geez, you couldn’t even enjoy one evening walking around, could you?

Either way, there was little information of those said crimes. Vandalizing paintings –the furthest you have ever gone to paint something where you shouldn’t, would probably be when you drew in your walls- and harming various policemen in the process of escaping. First, you never harmed anyone with your teasing nor fleeing, and second, you were just guessing your favourite detectives weren’t injured. You were oh so sure they wouldn’t want to play anymore if they thought you did it. And also, who thinks is so clever as to take your face and names?

Now you had done some little research and were heading to what you thought would probably be their next location, with wind in your face and a frown to avoid drying your eyes. You were a bit familiar with identity thefts. They would probably be well trained in acting and/or makeup. You just were worried that they’ve been studying you to get a good enough knowledge to appear to be… well, you.

Honestly? You didn’t quite like them. The identity thefts, you mean. Not because it was happening to you, actually you respected them for their capacities to imitate someone; quite a nice ability, to be honest. If they were doing for the good side, they’d probably be very useful. Like you. You only used your gun to harm bad guys, you know? Never towards the very same celestial themed detectives that chased you around practically every day. They weren’t corrupt, you could tell. But back to the point, you just… had a bad feeling about them. You had bad experiences, nothing awfully horrid, but anyways.

You arrived and searched in silence through the building. Not gonna lie, you were just mad they were doing things you didn’t considered ethic –you never stole just to sell, nor harmed people you didn’t needed to harm-, and you just couldn’t stand it. Maybe talking will make them go to your side. Probably they just needed money or something. You hoped so. Oh, and mad you threw your weekend plans off the window. Some mafia dudes were going to show up somewhere in the city and you were planning on at least do something about it. It was better than letting them go without consequences, so you called anonymously the police, alerting about that place with details and hour, just before heading towards the exact same edifice you were in right now. Just left for praying that they don’t let them go out of jail in 48 hours, or you were gonna be so annoyed. It took you weeks!

You tensed immediately at hearing something. Running, some shooting, and you saw someone just like you running, hiding nearby and shoot back. Then some thud, and you knew they were dead. At seeing that awful sight of corpses, you shuddered in silence. Why the need of get rid of your chasers? You had fun with them, nothing else, but that copycat was more… corrupt. They didn’t even doubt to pull the trigger!

You stared in silence, trying to get the disgust out of your face. Instead you focused on them. Same white shirt, same royal blue trousers and dark shoes- What?! They even had the ribbon you used to hold your ponytail. Okay, hold on to your horses, it was fine. It didn’t have the details it had; it was plain red and yellow. Okay, one way more to differentiate you both. Also, their face.

Physically? Nothing different. But it just wasn’t you. No teasing, no amusement, and no nothing you ever had in your face. It was more like… you don’t even know, but it gave you a shudder. Maybe talking wasn’t something that was gonna end well; you had that one feeling you had when something was corrupted as fuck. Like when you fought against that one crimson animatronic (well, you didn’t quite fought but they wanted to hurt you and you were running for your life and the little prize you took off of them and haven’t returned ever since; it was worth though, he was quite the slippery bot, and ever since, you didn’t even needed to search for him, they showed at your door themselves now! Well, with quite a lot of guns and some soldiers and a lot of killing desires towards you but- eventually you were gonna catch them and make them pay for their crimes like everyone else).

They just kneeled and stole some bullets and replaced their gun, and quickly headed to the exit, and you quickly crawled down from the ceiling, carefully getting down from those beams like you once saw Detective Moon do to caught someone –you were spying-, with the pistol in between the teeth you were not aware he had –he never quite used it, you know, but it didn’t meant he shouldn’t have-. With the elegance of an electronic gazelle and lethality of a knife, he looked hella awesome. So you were impressed and tried having that same ability. Some broken bones before and muscles aching, you turned just fine. Hah! That little copycat wouldn’t be able of doing that, would they?

Either way, you had to focus. You were following them as quietly as ever, amusedly thinking how low guard they were, out of character with a bag in their back, probably full of things they just stole; judging by the sound, it was probably jewellery. Guns, even.

They ended up in the ceiling when you decided to appear. For them, you just spawned there, with a mischief grin and a hand in your hip, looking at them confidently. For you it was more like getting in place and posing, to finally cough to catch their attention. They appeared to be scared and surprised, but quickly drew their weapon towards you.

-Hey, fella, calm down a bit –you said, getting your hands up playfully- I just wanna talk to ya.

-Mad for me acting like you? –they imitated your grin perfectly. You ignored your gut feeling.

-No, not really, my fella –you shrugged-, just that I don’t think we’re playing the same game. Maybe we’d like to work with each other, so why don’t we calm down and talk properly?

They lowered it slightly, but it was still ready to shoot at you. –You want to work… with me?

-I think we have to get to an agreement first –you shrugged yet again. Maybe you’d get them to learn gestures you didn’t used at all times, so you could maybe trick them into a behaviour that wasn’t yours while being slight, not notorious-,  and I also have some questions of what you’ve been doing with my face, ya know?

The copycat got tense. –Shoot it.

You didn’t hide your smile from that silly joke coming from the one with the gun. –You’ve vandalized some art pieces and didn’t even steal them. Why?

-They deserved it. No one would pay attention to a random graffiti in a subway’s wall that said that one of the political assholes was an abuser. Especially if that dickhead was the sponsor of that museum, and also its favourite piece, so…

Fuck. Yeah, right, you could work with that. –In the news, it said you harmed various policemen. Did you really need to?

-They shot first!

-I know! But did you need to get to their level? –you tried to hide the little disgust mixed with teasing.

-You can’t say I didn’t have reasons.

-They ended up dead. You don’t even have a scratch, do you?

-Do you support police? –disgust in their faces was the main dish.

-Of course not! –You frowned-, but it isn’t needed that you goddamn shoot at everything and anything. Gosh, you need some serious training in how I work if you really wanna imitate me.

They raised a brow. –Why would you help me be a better you?

-Maybe because we could have much, much fun –you said amused-, like guess how much Detective Sun and Detective Moon could react! I bet Detective Moon would be confused and try to shoot us both but wouldn’t actually pull the trigger, he never does, and maybe he has some kind of problem with being too aggressive? Or having such impulses, I don’t know really. Anyway, while Detective Sun-

-You mean those animatronics that follow us? –Us?-, those bastards, why do you talk so happily about them? They try to arrest you constantly.

-Oh? Yeah, but its way more funny if-

They raised their gun yet again. –You probably work for them, don’t you?

-Excuse me? –you raised your brows.

-Just hear yourself, asking about “crimes” like if you didn’t do different.

It hit you harder than a bullet.

Did you… Were you a criminal just like them? Naughty, as Moon would say?

You shook your head. –I try to do a little good in the world, just that.

-You haven’t denied it –they growled.

-Aw come on! You know very well I’ve been in this far longer than you probably. You know my story probably better than anyone else, other me.

It didn’t seem to convince them. You sighed, taking your hands up, not to avoid violence, but to replace the ribbon in your head to your regular black hair elastic to do your ponytail, and kept the red fabric inside of your inner pockets, safe from falling off. You tried de-escalating the situation, but they seemed ready to pull the trigger if the next thing wasn’t it. You just sighed, rolling up your sleeves as if getting ready to fight.

They seemed to get even tenser, even their voice changing and a finger on the trigger, and you waited and kept talking, but they eventually did shot. Thank goodness you’ve been practicing not getting shot with all the fights you’ve had, and the fact you had been walking through the roof, and so it wasn’t just like point-blank range. Or some shit like so, you just thank every god you knew it didn’t hit you completely, just a scratch that started to bleed –looking again, it wasn’t just a scratch, but it wasn’t inside your flesh!- You ran fast before they shot again, and hit their hand with yours, and punched their face with your elbow after doing a quick turn.

Damn! They had a knife in their pocket, and you just moved away to not be stabbed, but you got another scratch in the nose bridge. Nothing serious, really, but it hurt a bit. Cheating, cheating! Rule-breaker!!

Now, now, you could dodge all the knife swings you wanted, really, but eventually you knew it was gonna catch you. Instead, closer to them, you got on the floor and kicked their ankles. Not the enough to let them fall, but they lost balance and you took the opportunity to take the dagger off of their hands and tackle them next. You could have punched them, but you opened your mouth to say something teasing. You were pushed aside before you could say anything, so yeah… not great. You were starting to get annoyed- but, but, but! You had a good feeling. You were gonna play, they like it or not. Yes. You were. The thing was… what to play?

They were gonna punch you, but they shouldn’t have forgotten you were an escape artist. Yeah, it was about getting out, mostly, but you also knew how to get in. Does that make sense? Of course it does, you are talking to yourself in your head. The point is you trapped them with your own black elastic. You had more than one; thank goodness you always kept extra.

-Fella, we need not to fight –you said-, I actually have something to ask you.

They raised their gaze to meet yours, mostly to make themselves sure that you weren’t gonna shoot or anything. –It’s nothing about surrender or about joining forces or anything if that’s what worries you –you said with a giggle.

They just raised a brow. You were about to ask, just as you collected the rest of information of your cases, but this one specifically meant a lot to you. Of course, you almost always took it on your own hands, but always left they get arrested by some random police officer. With this case, however, it wasn’t gonna be so easy. What for? They were gonna leave jail anyways if they paid enough.

You were not leaving the case to Detective Sun and Moon as you would sometimes so you’d not have a race to see who get to them first, nor you’d take it slowly as you normally would. This. This was different.

Then BAM! Detective Moon’s on the case.

Oh, the only time you were less than pleased to see his black and white face. Faceplate. Whatever.

-Hands up- you… both…? –he shouted, lowering his voices as he tilted his face to stare at you two, like thinking who was who. He didn’t close the door by which he came from.

You slowly breathed deep, without getting your hands up, and neither did your copycat. –Detective Moon –they said instead, without your teasing tone. Well, they failed, because you already had your typical smile.

-Detective Moon! –You greeted-, do you wanna play charades with us? Maybe mimes if you want-

-HANDS UP! –Detective Sun shouted, after going up the emergency stairs, so they were at your left. Oh my! The timing! Hilarious.

There was a little silence before someone else spoke, and you let out a giggle.

-Detectives, calm down, there are enough of us –the other you said, and you nodded.

-No need to share –you added smiling with your teeth.

-…god, they are good at pretending –the lunar animatronic whispered, tired as though his shift just started.

-Are you together? –Detective Sun asked.

-No –they said immediately, and you just stood silent, as the scratches started aching.

-How could I be with someone… uh… what is the word?

-Magnificent?

-Awful morally –you said with a giggle. You were just messing around, to be honest.

-We are here for one only –Detective Moon said, tense-, with the charges of murder for various citizens and other felonies.

-Huh? –You said, getting off character for a second, and then coughed-, are you sure these charges are for that copycat? I mean uh-

-How can you do such awful things? –The other whined-, so inhumane, so cruel.

-Wait, no, this is serious, how many people did they… uh…?

-Enough to be on jail for life.

So they can’t pay their way out? Good. You pulled up your sleeves and thought. How were you gonna catch them? You didn’t have the strength at your side, no. Detective Sun and Moon weren’t gonna help, as they thought that you probably had committed them. What move should you pull? You could maybe tie them up again, but it just wasn’t that fun to repeat yourself… hm…

-I have an idea –the sunny twin said-, let’s do questions, Moon.

-We have to arrest them both.

-But we don’t know who the dangerous one is –Detective Sun said-, what if they shoot?

-I volunteer! –You said, cheerful-, to the questions, I mean.

The copycat –they haven’t said their real name, so you gave them one- stared blankly for less than a second, and returned to the playfulness. –Me to!! Even if you arrest me, I can get out. Am I right, Detectives?

-After all, I have nothing to fear if I’m the original –you said, with a hand on your chest with pride, right below your collarbone. You chuckled at how both the Detectives and the copycat reacted to your if, even if subtle.  

Both Detectives stared into one of them, sometimes shifting their eyes to their brother, and the other you shifted their gaze amongst the three of you.

-Okay. First question.

-Why did you become an escape artist? –Detective Sun asked, inquisitive.

-Answer the one without the ribbon.

-Easy as a lemon pie –you chuckled-, I adored circus as a kid, I told ya once, Detectives, and I really, really liked those kinds of shows, and I started working as a vigilante later, and it was helpful! But, still, come on guys. If you wanna see who is the real me, you gotta ask something spicier, don’t ya think? –you let out a giggle.

The Detectives looked briefly at each other for a second. –Fine. Second question.

-Why don’t you take out your gun? –Detective Moon asked, more like a growl needing answers than a question. Aw, he looked so sweet like that. You mean. What. Wait, yeah. Yeah! As a teasing, you mean. Awful time to debate internally how you meant a joke no one heard.

-The one with the ribbon answers now.

-Easy as escaping you guys! –The other you said-, I don’t because if I shoot someone just like that and kill them, I wouldn’t be better than them. Why getting on their level?

-Then why is your drop leg holster so near your hand?

The copycat froze for a second, as their hand was just some centimetre away from taking their gun out. Their hand slowly became a fist and then cheerfully took their hands up, like shrugging. –Because of safety, of course! I wouldn’t know what that impostor would do, especially considering they’ve committed so much murder! This… beast, if I can call them so, wouldn’t hesitate from hurting me if they get bored!

-Oh, come on, I don’t even sound like that.

-Shut –Detective Moon hissed. It’s not your turn.

Oh well.

You knew what they intended with that question. They’ve studied you, of course, and for much longer, and had chases with you, not mentioning that every time they arrested you and searched for any gun, they never found any. Mostly because you never used one. Of course after some certain event with a certain scarlet animatronic very like-your-favourite-Detectives looking, you started carrying one everywhere, even if you didn’t used to utilizing it. And of course you didn’t leave it so easy in sight as your thigh. They knew your thoughts about it. About violence and harming without the need, of course. And you, joyfully, started noticing they changed their ways too. Not even threatening with taking out their guns, not even Moon, instead just running with the handcuffs and trying so hard on arresting you.

-Lastly.

-Any of you can answer –Detective Sun said,

-How did you get that ribbon? And also, where is it? –that last part was towards you.

You immediately reached your inner pocket to take out your ribbon, with golden details in the red cloth. The other you reacted in less than a second, taking their ribbon and looking and you, then shifting their gaze between both bots. PFFF! THEIR FAZADE WAS STARTING TO BREAK! You didn’t wanted to be mean; you really didn’t, but their eyes, so angry towards you for a millisecond then desperate to the Detectives.

-They stole it from me!! –they shouted.

-Oh, come on, I don’t steal –you shrugged-, also, why would I put it back on your hair?

-And why don’t you have it on your hair?

-Because YOU were going to steal from me!

-Shush you both –Detective Sun said, tired. Oh, right, it must’ve been just the end of his shift; he should be oh so tired. Poor little thing.

-You haven’t answered any question. Stop rambling towards the other.

-We aren’t a daycare –Detective Sun sighed-, stop acting like toddlers, please. How did you get the ribbon?

You stared at the other you, smiling smugly and they stared back, with a drop of sweat through their cheek. No, they were begging with their eyes, please.

Oh, of course you were going to.

-Yeah, you little copycat –you said, playful-, refresh my memory. If you can.

They stayed silent and you approached, putting your hands on their shoulders and passing through their arms as you walked around their back, slowly. The Detectives were as tense as ever. –Oh, come on now, don’t be shy! Or is it that you… can’t? –you whispered at their ear.

Just when you were going to complete the circle around them and tell the answer yourself, they got you by the neck and put their gun on your head.

Oh, you fucking knew it.

You supressed your grin, as the situation didn’t deserve it. Actually, it did, but it just wasn’t fitting for everyone else. The Detectives –oh, your beloved animatronics- got their guns directly aiming to the copycat that growled. You had already hidden your ribbon by now, so no danger concerning your little prize.

-Drop the gun –Detective Sun said, almost like if… worried about you.

-Think about it for a second. How will you get out of here? –by killing you?

-Yeah, not-anymore-other-me, how are you gonna get outta here? –You mocked, even though you were trying to scratch their arm holding you by the neck. It only got their grip tighter and you felt now the cold metal.

-I won’t hurt them if you leave aside your guns.

Detective Moon shook his head with his eyes on his sunny twin that almost hesitated, before holding it as tight as before. –And what do we get with that? Is not like if we aren’t gonna arrest them too –it was a lie… right? Yeah, it was. He couldn’t behave like that! Just so the copycat could perceive things wrong.

-You haven’t shot yet. You care, Detectives? –they mock.

-You learned well the art of teasing –you whispered as an inner joke, but they poke the scratches (that by the way, weren’t bleeding anymore, but oh my, oh my, it hurts like a bitch) lightly, just to get a whine out of you, but you saw the grin.

-learned from the best. Me.

-I could kiss ya if you weren’t you and you were me instead. You are great, you knew? –you said, fawning yourself.

-What are you talking so much about? –the moon-styled animatronic growled.

-You know? We could’ve been allies –they whined.

-Are you together now?

None of you answer.

The Detectives growled. Still, they haven’t let go, so you took it as a sign. Just a bit more…

-Both. Hands. Up –it was more of a warning from the darker animatronic.

-Please. Can’t we talk it up? –the solar one said.

-Drop your guns and I might let him go.

Ugh, spice it up while I’m working, will you?

Click.

The copycat jumped at the subtle sound, and you quickly got away as you stomped with as much strength you had. Oh, the conversation was so pleasant for everyone that between the little struggles to scratch, they didn’t even notice you was tying them up slowly, and got them with a lock. Phew! Ugh! Wait! That didn’t stopped them from hitting you in the jaw with their gun, as suddenly it felt much more lighter, and as you were holding the bullets on your fingers.

You whined at the sudden blow, feeling it was at least going to leave you bruised up, but it was fine. You saw a quick shadow jump towards the copycat even before you could do the second step as you brought your hands to your face.

Detective Moon was already on the other you, arresting them while hissing things you couldn’t hear. While, you heard some more clicks, and you, too, were handcuffed by wrist and ankle to Detective Sun. You just grinned, maybe as tired as him, and he sat at your side.

-Oh, the bruise isn’t too bad, is it? Oh, and those cuts… -he said, taking out a piece of cloth that worked as a tissue or something. Why the sunny brother did have one? Is not like he could sweat, cry or bleed. And it was way too clean to be for oil or some other robotic stuff that were gross to say the least.

-Aw, don’t tell me you are worried about me, Sunny -you said, playful. It didn’t hurt, didn’t hurt, hurt…

The Detective was trying to clean up the blood left in your injuries –that were starting to burn-, and stopped for a second when you said that nickname. Not even his brother called him so.

-We are obligated to serve first aid, even if you are a-

-Vigilante –you interrupted.

He just stared. –Uh-huh.

You just allowed him to treat your wounds –he couldn’t do much since he seemed to just have that tissue on- while watched Detective Moon arrest them. It seemed they blacked out, lying there so still it seemed they were sleeping. Then the celestial animatronic got nearby, and looked at your injuries quickly and nodded. –Don’t let them escape.

-I haven’t tried to yet, Detective Moon –you said with a grin-, don’t you worry.

He just frowned, but crossed his arms. –While Detective Sun treats your wounds, I’ve got a question for you, before the police arrive to take… them into jail formally. For now, it’s safer to keep you still in one place.

You sighed in amusement. –Scared to let go off me?

Detective Moon didn’t answer verbally, just pointing with his thumb to your copycat. –I can chase them off, too, if they try to escape –you offered-, not like this, though –you said, pointing with your free arm to the other.

-I can keep up –Detective Sun said, while taking a little bottle of alcohol to spray on other tissue and proceed to clean up again, and god it hurts, but it was fine. You were going to be fine.

-I always escape for something, Detective Sun –you said, already without handcuffs and did jazzy-hands, but you let your ankle to be connected too. You took your ribbon out and put it again on your ponytail, and you smiled at feeling it was back in place again, where it belonged to.

-You- -he sighed, but Detective Moon put his own connected to your wrist, and you moved your hands back and forth, you intertwining with his fingers, and you noticed he was particularly still.

-As I said –the lunar lad continued-, we have a question.

-Oh! Yes, we have. We overheard your conversation between you two.

-Just the end of it. You were about to ask something, weren’t you?

You nodded. –Yeah. Why?

-What was it?

You narrowed your eyes, in silence avoiding their scrutinizing eyes.

-Why did they chose me to copycat –you lied with a grin-, from all the people that could’ve been, why me?

-Probably because they noticed your prestige –Detective Sun said slowly. His brother punched him lightly to the side.

-Why did you lie?

-Hm?

-You left my hand immediately as soon as I said that, your heartbeat is much faster and your hands are slightly sweating.

You left your grin frozen, more like paused than anything. –Personal business.

They didn’t say anything as they looked at you. You sighed. –Just because you two are my beloved bots.

You breathed deeply. –I’m guessing you know the reason I became a vigilante, right?

They nodded slowly; all ears for you –even if they didn’t have-. Oh, you loved undivided attention.

You really didn’t want to go into details, so you nodded back while moving your thumbs back and forth, fingers intertwined and on your lap. A long… long time ago –how much has passed still surprised you- you were incriminated doing something you didn’t. Luckily you had a good lawyer and the evidence saying that you did it was…confusing? At best, so you didn’t go to jail, but it still… wasn’t fair. You were scared it would happen again. So you just made sure it wouldn’t. Nor to you nor anyone! You were just cleaning off the streets. Never killing or harming, no, just making sure they wouldn’t do it again! Wasn’t it nice?

Still, you couldn’t uncover who did it. Who had incriminated you.

-Well, something about that –you said slowly and lower than usual. The Detectives just stared, and for a moment you felt just so uncomfortable. Were they judging you? Oh, fuck, no.

You giggled to pass the tense moment and quickly without much thought you got free from your handcuffs and did a forward somersault and scaled into the little roof above the door to get back inside the building. You looked at them, but they didn’t seem very eager on chasing down that much. Detective Moon just walked, fast and even seemed wanting to hop up too, but refrain from doing so. His sunny twin just stayed behind, walking a bit slower, but towards the copycat, still sleeping.

-I’m afraid we don’t have much time left, do we? –you said, doing a gesture of farewell with two fingers in your forehead, as you heard the police was arriving already. And of course, Moon’s hat in your head now, as you played with it and posed for him as a mock.

-Hold on a second –he said, concerned and annoyed. Wait. That gaze... There was something off.

-Hm? –You asked cheerful-, Oh, Detective, calm, your hat is gonna be fineeee….

You threw the hat down, and he immediately took it and left it on his head. But his eyes didn’t even flicker from you. -…detective?

-Do you know who that ribbons belonged to?

You tilted your head a bit. –I took it as a prize for fooling Eclipse –you admitted, narrowing your eyes- Why?

Both Detectives stared at each other, the sunny one almost begging with his eyes, as the other was giving you his back. –Moon, don’t, they don’t know-

-How is your relationship with Eclipse? –the darkest animatronic said, pronouncing the name of that mafia leader with a hiss, like with especial disgust.

-Excuse me? –you asked, frowning, and knelt to see him as close as you could while being out of reach.

-Just…

-It’s nothing! –Detective Sun intervened, like wanting to cut the conversation out.

-…answer.

-Well, he chases me down now and then, but I don’t quite have an opinion on him especially. Out of reach for me to… do anything against him. Why?

The Detectives stayed silent for a second, like trying to find the words and trying to know how much time they had left until cops arrive to the roof.

-You were going to ask if they knew anything about the case, right. –Detective Moon said, more like a statement than a question.

You nodded slowly, opening your eyes wide. Something wasn’t right. –…why are you asking –you whispered, but they heard perfectly.

-I think you can connect the dots –the lunar one said, as the other fidgeted nervously. Saying things of the old cases is against the rules, he must have been thinking.

You slowly digested it. No, no. No. Absolutely no.

-Eclipse was involved –Detective Moon said, before you could even word your thoughts.

You froze as the cops came inside.
