DETANGLED
pairing - sakusa kiyoomi x fem. reader (with any hair type that isn't pin straight)
summarization - you are frustrated when you meet with your best friend and he's tired of you speaking badly about yourself
includes - mutual pining, dogs shipping their owners, rich boy kiyoomi, sexual tension (+ anything i might've missed)
a/n - please accept my sincerest apologies bc this is incredibly self indulgent 😭😭. i wrote this on a bad hair day and i just kept thinking about kiyoomi and his pretty hair. also both he and reader have dogs. kinda short, not my best work. again apologies
A cold wind blows through the streets, sending a part of Sakusa's coat flying behind him. The man inevitably shivers as he buries his nose deeper into the knitted scarf and balls his gloved hands into fists.
Above his head, the sky is a very soft shade of gray, with the clouds so thickly condensed into a barrier for the sunlight. Across the dog playground a loud bark can be heard, the sound feeling all too familiar to the man.
He smiles softly beneath his mask when he sees the energetic doberman, happily approaching his friend. And soon enough, the owner joins Sakusa's side as well.
'Hi!' You greet him with a smile when you take your place on the man's right, with your back leaning against the metal fence.
'About time.' Sakusa's remark earns him an eye roll and he can't help gloating a little on the inside.
'Listen I almost had a mental breakdown over my hair you should be lucky I even got here.'
With a huff you cross your arms over your chest, blowing away a stray hair that disrupted your view. To your surprise however, Sakusa turns to face you, eyes roaming over the strands formed into a very messy updo.
'I told you before, your hair looks fine. You're stressing over nothing. Again.'
'It's not nothing!' You protested. 'I just wish I could make it look prettier. Like get the curls to be defined or something so it's not just a blob.' Your reasoning was followed by another eyeroll, this time accompanied by a small pout.
Sakusa looked in the direction of the two black dogs again and stood quiet for a couple of seconds before he called his pet over. The black shepard rushed over happily, with your doberman trailing behind him.
Once they were seated before the two of you, the man crouched down and secured the leash before turning towards you.
'Let's go.'
'Where?' You questioned while mirroring Sakusa's previous actions and following him through the gate of the playground.
'Just follow me.’ Was the only thing he let be revealed before switching the topic of the conversation. 'How was your day?'
-
Sakusa navigates the busy streets expertly while he keeps up the conversation with you, before his steps come to a halt in front of a store. It's a pet friendly one, of course it is, because even though you're not aware of it, he plans on spending at least forty-five minutes inside.
Brows slightly raised in curiosity, you trail behind him, only to nearly head face first into his broad back when he stops.
'Gah! Warn a woman next time?'
He promptly ignores you and instead reaches out to touch the front strands that fell out of your bun.
'Hm.'
Feeling slightly exposed by his soft touch and the proximity, you do your best at avoiding direct eye contact, which he fortunately doesn't seem notice.
'I think these would work best for your hair type.'
His arm stretches out and places two bottles in the basket he picked up on the way in, before continuing.
'You use the shampoo twice, only on the roots, and the conditioner once, just the ends.'
You can only manage a small nod, feeling kind of clueless with him leading you through the store like this.
'I should've made a list...oh well...these will do.'
He shoves another load of products in the basket and at this point you've given up on trying to be of use, giving him free reign instead.
-
Once the two of you are in line, you instinctively reach for your wallet, assesing the items in the man's hands.
'What do you think you're doing?'
His voice is as smooth and gentle as ever, and his dark eyes fix on yours so intensely that you want to slap yourself for all the inappropriate thoughts that run through your mind.
'You're not seriously thinking of paying for all of this!'
'I brought you here, it's only fair.'
'Kiyo-'
'End of discussion.'

Rin Okumura x Half Angel! Reader
Request from @birdgirl98
Hi! How’s your weekend going? Could I request Blue Exorcist Rin relationship headcanons with a female half angel half human reader? Please and thank you!
Genre: Headcanons
Reader: female
Warnings: Minor Manga Spoilers, some discrimination, Reader is Half angel, Fluff.
Rin was quite shocked when he first met you.
more than anything because he confused you with another Nephelim, due to the...strange aura you had.
Rin even felt threatened by you, by your presence. Maybe bc You were somewhat Holy.
probably his instincts as a son of satan tried to "protect" him from you in a certain way.
but at the same time very intrigued.
apart from the fact that, in general, you were never mean to him, in the least. In fact, quite the opposite. not only with him, but with everyone in the class, no matter how rude they were(ahem hem IZUMO ahem hem), you were always so... bright and friendly.
You honestly already knew that he was the son of Satan even before he said it because of all the demonic power he and the sword gave off, but you didn't want to expose it because you knew how horrible it was to be a victim of that.
While you were growing up there were people who found out about your "holy ancestry" and tried to take advantage of it in multiple ways. if it weren't for your mother.
You got used to having a certain distance from people, although you never stopped being friendly with others.
Apart from the fact that you were also strong, it could be seen with the naked eye. It was that that made him (and most of them) think that you were also the daughter of some demon.
It didn't help that Mephisto constantly tried to get close to you to make "inside" jokes that no one understood.
but in general Rin didn't dare to talk to you, he just felt intimidated at first.
you had to take the first step in this. when you two were assigned a job together.
precisely because you didn't want to make him feel uncomfortable after making conversation, asking him about work, things like that.
and Rin began to gain more confidence to address you more naturally later.
Little by little the "intimidating" atmosphere around you dissipated and he was able to start a conversation with you as he normally would with his colleagues.
You realized that he was doing poorly in most subjects, so you started to give him a hand in that.
sometimes with little notes, indirectly telling him the answer, evolving in afternoons of study with him. which led to you getting to know each other better.
It was around that time that Rin decided to ask about your parents. His curiosity was already reaching its limit.
and you decided to be honest with him, after all, who would understand better about mismatched parents if it weren't the SON OF SATAN?
and you told him that you were not a daughter of a demon. quite the opposite. but of an ANGEL.
Your mother had fallen in love with a celestial being but said being practically did not participate much in your life until you developed your powers, that was when the Vatican intervened and, similar to Rin, Mephisto intervened on your behalf.
Now, that made your intimidating aura make A LOT more sense to Rin!
for a moment at least.
Then he was very confused.
and he started asking you a lot of questions about your father and things like that because, well, he KNEW about demons and they even studied about them, but angels?? It is something completely NEW for him and he hardly knows that they also exist.
His questions aren't exactly invasive, but more on the side of innocent curiosity like "does that mean there's a heaven? (I guess I won't be able to go there because-you know) there's a GOD? Does your father work with him??" "Are the angels just as ugly as the ones they show in the Bible?(how did your mother like that then? ew)" etc.
It's even kind of cute to see, how Satan's son seems so intrigued by the "heavenly world" even if it is its total opposite.
Apart from the fact that not even YOU know the answer to more than half of those questions. but at the same time you finally have someone who doesn't seem bothered by this information...quite the opposite.
I firmly believe that Rin would be much closer to you now, because they are the only ones who fully understand each other's situation of having a questionable father but on different levels.
Rin also understands that you don't want to tell your classmates, whether for personal reasons or simply not wanting to tell them so as not to scare or intimidate them with the idea of angels.
Although even so, Rin will always remind you that he is on your side and that your companions will always ALWAYS see you as one of the group, regardless of your species.
Now, if that generates a conflict similar to the one it caused when he revealed himself as the son of Satan, he has your back and tries to get everyone to make peace, because 1- you didn't have to say it if you didn't want to and 2- it's something very staff who have hurt you before. They should be a little more empathetic.
If everyone learned from their experience with Rin and accepts you at first, he will be calmer and even proud of the progress they have made as a group.
everyone together tries to make theories about heaven and things like that 🤣
probably being the only daughter of an angel, similar to Rin, they put you in special training, but maybe instead of with Shura, with Yukio. so you both end up spending a lot more time together.
If you have wings, Rin DEMANDS to touch them! Of course, he won't do it if it makes you feel uncomfortable, but if you give him permission...oh boy he's rubbing his face in the feathers as if it were a pillow.
If you show your wings to the other classmates they will be quite shocked, but also intrigued (I can see Shiemi putting accessories on your feathers or brushing them 🥰 )
If we talk about advanced relationship terms, Rin is a physical contact guy, he really likes to hug you, give smooches, hold hands, anything is good for him as long as they are making physical contact.
Although in general spending time with you is good for him when he is stressed, it is like it recharges his battery.
If you like manga or something like that, HE'S YOUR BOY! I can definitely see him doing the unthinkable with you: lending you one of his Mangas.
He is also an expert at making you laugh, but he is a fan of doing it at the LEAST opportune moments, like for example, you are having a lesson with Yukio and out of nowhere you look to the side and turn to Rin with his chopsticks in his nose :/
He's also, canonically, very good at cooking, so depending on whether you're good at cooking or not, it could be another way for you to spend time together!
If you're like me and cook anything randomly, you and Rin can probably have a cute couple moment while making Bentos🥰
If you want to learn to cook, he teaches you! Go from being Gordon Ramsey in Master Chef to being Gordon Rasmey in Kids Chefs with you. super patient and loving.
(totally ruthless if it were anyone else. by anyone else I mean Yukio).
He is also quite protective of you.
For example, even if he saved your life and his, he knows better than to trust Mephisto too much, so if he sees him trying to pull one of those "inside jokes" I mentioned above, Rin gets defensive.
Also in general in exercises you tend to put your safety above the main objective😅 even if he know that they are not lethal exercises, it does not mean that you cannot get hurt easily(like the one of the Ep1).
Although it doesn't mean he doesn't trust your abilities! If you show that you have good skills in exorcising, he is the first to encourage you to improve. It makes him calmer knowing that you can defend yourself (or better yet, stop him if he gets out of control).
Rin is also sometimes afraid to be a little more open emotionally, after everything he has been through, he believes he handles everything well. But if you encouraged him to talk about what bothers him, I think he would honestly burst into tears.
You two understand each other on a very high spiritual level. If Satan wants to mess with YOUR boyfriend he will have to deal with you first. You can't stand the demon.
If your father comes out of the blue to "try to reconcile" or WORSE, wants to hurt you for being a half-blood, he will have to face the fury of the literal spawn of SATAN. Rin is not very nice to your father, very angelic and all, but having the father figure that he had, he definitely sees your father as unworthy of the title of Father.
(unless obviously you have a good relationship with your father currently despite everything. In that case Rin wishes things were that easy for him)
although I can definitely see him filling out nicely with your mother! He himself never met his and from what he learned more about her and Satan... he would really have liked to have someone like you had.
It may even become a habit to go to your mother's house from time to time, to get a taste of the life he wants in the future.
Overall, Rin completely accepts your angelic nature just like you completely accepted his demonic nature. He likes to think that you two are two sides of the same coin, for this reason, he supports you unconditionally and will be your accomplice no matter what.
He loves you very very much regardless of whether you are half angel, demon or just a normal human.

Hi! I hope you feel better soon 💜 I have funny lil request if you are at all interested. So Bucky has a lil crush on the reader, and one day walks by their room and hears something that makes him a bit jealous. He hears the reader giggling, and saying stuff jokingly like "Stop Charlie, that tickles!" or "You're so handsome," and Bucky becomes sad because he thinks the reader has found someone. But then he later finds out that the reader was actually dog sitting for a friend. What happens next is up to you, and feel free to change anything to make it more interesting! I chose Charlie as a random dog name that's also human, but its just an example. If you find any inspiration from this, I encourage you to take it in absolutely any direction you want! (as long as it has a happy ending, bc Im a sucker for happy endings hehe)
okay what I find hilarious and amazing about this is I HAVE HAD THIS EXAAACT SAME IDEA, WHY DID I NEVER WRITE IT. THIS IS SO ADORABLE. This is a sign. From the universe.
The only thing I'm changing here is the name because I find it hilarious when dogs have more common people names. 
It started off with your sweet smiles, they’re so contagious, he can’t help but smile back. He starts to find his heart jumping a little whenever you’re around, he almost goes to Bruce to get a medical check up cause why is his heart doing that. Stop that. He can’t control the way you make him blush and he realizes he likes you. Likes you likes you. Its a cute little crush he has that he tries to keep a secret because its just a little crush, nothing to get worked up over. 
He’s too scared to ask you out, he gets tongue tied the second he tries to attempt anything. 
It all goes sideways he walks by your room one day. 
"Daniel, bubba you're too heavy to be lying on me like this!"
He stopped dead in his tracks. Maybe he heard wrong. 
"Baby, stop that tickles"
Baby? You never mentioned dating anyone before.
"Hey! You can't get away with that just because you're so handsome"
Bucky blinked, his jaw clenching, who the fuck was this Daniel, and why he with you. He wanted to know exactly how “handsome” this punk was, making you giggle and laugh, he should be the one doing that. 
"Hmmm, you know you're so handsome don't you baby"
Bucky shook his head, huffing to his room to pout, he had to find out who the hell this guy was. Or not. If was sure he’d probably punch the guy in the neck. 
Imagine his surprise when he over hears the team just casually talking to you about Daniel. 
With Sam
Sam: So how's Daniel doing? You: He's good, I'm going to see him later today if I have some time, we might go for a walk in the park
Sam: Aww, the weather’s supposed to be nice out, maybe you can even stop by the lake!
With Tony
You: Daniel's coming over later, is that okay?
Tony: Sure, just don't make a mess in the living room like last time
You: Sorry, I'll keep him in check
Tony: He’s great otherwise, you should bring him around more often
Bucky nearly saw stars with that conversation, the last thing he needed was more of you and Daniel. The final straw was when he heard you talking to Steve. 
Steve: You think I can steal Daniel from you
You: I’m sure he’d love that, he loves going on runs with you, I can’t keep up with his energy 
Steve: He’s great, wish he was around more often, let me know when he’s coming by next
Okay, stealing his crush was one thing, but Bucky drew the boundary at this clown moving in on his best friend too. 
*****
“Can you tell me what the hell is so great about Daniel” Bucky huffed, fidgeting with his fingers, sitting on the couch while Sam tinkered with redwing. 
“What do you mean what’s so great, he’s amazing! He’s friendly, he’s great with kids, he’s super sweet, gets along with everyone. You haven’t met him?” 
“No” Bucky rolled his eyes, every time he thought it was bad, it got worse. Now the guy was great with kids too. Fantastic. Before Sam could respond, Bucky hear you call for him. 
“Oh my God Bucky!! You have to meet Daniel!” You ran up to him, bouncing on your feet. Every time Daniel had come by, Bucky had either been called away on a mission or busy with something. You’d been dying for him to meet your favorite baby in the whole world. 
“I was busy y/n” Bucky tried to sound grumpy but he just couldn’t with you, pouting like a kicked puppy instead. He might as well meet the guy that seemed to have your heart. 
“You were just sitting with Sam, please?” You gave him your best pout and Bucky melted instantly, nodding while you ran back again to show your favorite soldier your best fur baby. 
Bucky’s eyes widened at the massive golden retriever that came bounding in, immediately pouncing on him and attacking him with kisses. 
“Daniel!!” You tried to pull him off but he wasn’t having it, trying to snuggle himself into Bucky, keeping him pinned on the floor. “Baby, get off him, I told you you’re too big!”
“This-this is Daniel?” Bucky blinked between getting his face licked, too stunned to say much else
“Yeah! Why, who did you think it was” 
“Your boyfriend” Sam snorted, watching the scene unfold in front of him, wiggling his eye brows at Bucky. 
“I-no-” Bucky blushed, while sitting up slightly, petting the fluffy baby behind the ears, allowing him to sit in his lap. 
“Man, shut up, just admit you were jealous over y/n 4 legged boyfriend” 
“Did you think Daniel was my boyfriend?” you giggled, sitting down beside him, your heart beating a little faster when he bit his lip. Did he like you back? “Were you jealous?” you whispered, inching a little closer to him, while he smiled softly not meeting your eyes. 
“Maybe a little” 
You both inched closer and closer until your hand was brushing his, his fingers hesitantly intertwining with yours while Daniel happily made himself comfortable across your laps, his head resting on Bucky’s thigh. Tony and Steve entered the living room looking pleased when they saw how close the two of you were sitting. 
“Ah, I see you met y/n’s boyfriend” Tony snorted while Bucky groaned, covering his face. “Cheating on Daniel now are we?” He nodded at your hand in Bucky’s while you laughed, kissing his cheek, making him blush more. 
“Hmm, Bucky doesn’t mind a little competition” 
“I hate all of you”

Hello!
Fellow inukagger here *shakes your hand* I noticed your tags on an inuyasha video edit post where you stated inuyasha was seeing kagome during their almost first-kiss. I want to believe this soo badly, but I have actually made a post where I argue the opposite bc that’s (unfortunately) my interpretation.
I would genuinely love to hear why you think this as I’m more than happy to be convinced 🥺❤️ If you’ve posted about it before, apologies that I haven’t seen it; please kindly drop a link.
Thank you very much! (It’s all 🫶🏼 and interest in civil discussion, certainly not looking to start anything otherwise)
Sure thing! I think there's a lot of misconception firstly because Kagome herself says this. That he hates her for looking like Kikyou, but when he looked at her in that moment, it looked loving, so she herself put two and two together that he must still be seeing her as Kikyou, but therefore have been in love with Kikyou. Which is partially true in that we know he did have feelings for her back when she was alive. (I have my own InuKik-critical perception on this, but that's a whole other rant and probably not what you're asking.) But I think it's VERY important to keep in mind that Kagome is an Unreliable Narrator in her own story here, particularly where it comes to interpreting Inuyasha's feelings at times. This holds true for pretty much the entire story, but particularly early on, when she doesn't know him as well. First off, I'm going to fast-forward slightly to give examples of Inuyasha himself making it clear he does NOT see Kagome as Kikyou, to prove my point that he's not lying when he tells her so at the almost-kiss. Keep in mind a lot of these are only available in the source material and the anime DID cut them to fuel love triangle drama. The manga is the original intended canon, so that's what I'll be going with for this entire conversation.
Tumblr media
(Let it be said that as far as Japanese subtleties are concerned, he is asking Kagome to date him, here.)
Tumblr media
For the sake of argument, let's look back at this "very beginning" he mentions, and how long it took him to realize Kagome LOOKED a bit like Kikyou, but was not Kikyou:
Tumblr media
Well that was quick. He does compare them a few times after this, but it's always about how different they are. (Usually to be rude, but let's face it, this is early Inuyasha.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(I include this "comparison" just because he's RELIEVED here at Kagome NOT being Kikyou. It's the first explicit indication that he likes her for her and would be heartbroken if the girls got switched.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Then he proceeds to make it even more explicit, and even Kaede spells it out.)
He completely stops comparing them in any capacity after this, and the way he does it says to me that he sees and values them very differently IN SPITE of the slight physical resemblance, not BECAUSE they look alike.
"But Kit!" I hear you say, "These examples are meaningless because they are AFTER he tried to kiss her!" Well I disagree his feelings would have changed that drastically in the small amount of time given the context, but let's still look at all InuKag have been through at this point. I'll just do a montage of Inuyasha feeling pride or affection for Kagome in said arcs because I am self-indulgent like that, lol.
Tumblr media
(My boy did not need to protect her, here. If she was gone, he'd be free of the beads and thus free to just take the Jewel. He did it purely out of valuing her life in some capacity.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Knowing her scent already? Lending her your only armor just so she won't get hurt? Why Inuyasha, that's not extremely intimate at all!)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(I find him saying her name significant not just because of differentiating her from Kikyou in his mind, but in that Inuyasha doesn't say ANYONE'S name unless they are important to him. Exceptions.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tumblr media
("I refuse to get involved!" *Kagome's in trouble, immediately gets involved*)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(I love this arc overall SO MUCH cuz they not only have their first friendly pouty BFFs spat, but Inuyasha then immediately comes running to save her after smelling her blood THROUGH SPACE AND TIME, and is so desperate to be relied on cuz it makes him feel good to protect her and he's realizing that.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Lest we forget he had SOMETHING TO TELL HER right before threading their fingers extremely intimately.)
Tumblr media
(Inu wasn't in this arc much but he WAS very worried and impressed with her.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(I could honestly put the WHOLE spider head arc in here and gush about every detail of their character development, but we all know the highlight and I think Rumiko put it best in the Profiles Book that Inuyasha had never encountered or thought of anyone who would be saddened by his death before. I truly believe this is when he decided to open up and give his budding feelings for her a chance to bloom. And more importantly for this particular argument, decides NOT TO LIE to her again.)
And it's at this point we come to him trying to kiss her. It's true Inuyasha's emotions are slightly volatile from Kikyou being brought up. It's a definite sore spot, which even Kagome picks up on. Kagome asks point blank if he still sees her as Kikyou and hates her for it. To which he says she has it all wrong.
Tumblr media
Considering her previous statement was if he HATES her, we can pretty easily infer that he's answering that directly, here. As in, no, he does not. Reading into context clues and what we see before and after this moment, I'd go so far as to say he's implying he LOVES her, here. Or at least is beginning to realize he likes her much more than as a friend. The last arc was huge for him, let's not forget that. He'd never ever been vulnerable like that with anyone: both in letting them know his night of weakness, and emotionally. All signs point to him having realized he's fallen for Kagome pretty hard and is ready to finally LET himself fall. (Though clearly Kagome's not quite ready herself, yet.) I'd argue that Kikyou's resurrection arc and the arcs following shortly after that I linked moments from earlier are there to just cement that he doesn't see her as Kikyou to any viewers who are still skeptical. In the manga anyway, we're never shown Inuyasha pining for Kikyou or wishing she was back to life. Quite the opposite, he only wishes her to rest in peace and reach Nirvana, which he has said to her more than once. The closest we get is this line right after the resurrection arc comes to an end and Kikyou's presumed dead from the cliff:
Tumblr media
Which I personally interpret as him still being heartbroken, yes, but the fact he brings up the idea of falling for another woman tells me he's still mulling over how he has romantic feelings for Kagome, and his trauma regarding romance making him wonder if he should backpedal on that or give up his initial goal that was a symptom of his heartbreak in the first place. (As in, he immediately stole the Jewel after Kikyou betrayed him essentially to make the hurt go away as soon as possible. Also note this is AFTER the almost-kiss, right before Miroku makes his appearance.) So I have a pretty hard time believing that he suddenly decided to lie to Kagome right after his entire breakthrough night of vulnerability with her, and how that affected him. Also keep in mind that Kagome doesn't have concrete feelings for Inuyasha yet, so there is no jealousy or lack of confidence where Kikyou is concerned at the point of time in question. One could (shakily imo) argue that he might lie to protect her feelings later on, when he's worried about her becoming angry or jealous, but he has no such reason to lie, here. Therefore I believe he's being extremely genuine, and probably the most genuine he's been so far since he decided to abandon his previous lie about disliking her scent. I truly think he wanted to find out what kissing was like with this spitfire girl who'd run away with his heart already and made him feel and share things he'd never felt or shared with anyone. I hope this at least elaborated on why I see that scene the way I do! If you have questions or want me to discuss an aspect of it further, don't hesitate to hit up my inbox again! I'm happy to share my thoughts on the series and especially InuKag!

a bit of Buck's pov from alive shannon bc I just started chapter 3! (still not sure how I feel about the pov-switching mostly bc I don't know if I'll be able to make them feel like different characters idk lol but def not changing it at this point, we're 16k in) but here's a bit of Shannon and Buck's first interaction, and I'm so excited to explore this dynamic aaaahhh a bit longer snippet bc I didn't get to write what I actually wanted to share lol there's not enough time in a day fr haha
prev snippet
___
“He just went to pick up Christopher from a friend’s house, should be back soon.” she says, eyeing him amusedly. “You can come in, Buck.” she chuckles lightly, gesturing at him to come inside. Right. He’s here for dinner, it’s Eddie’s house, he’s at home. He can be normal.
“Right.” he closes the door behind him, kicks off his shoes, and comes in – and stands next to the couch, wringing his hands nervously.
“Sit down, I don’t bite.” she pats the space next to her, lips turned up in amusement. Buck does, feeling his face get red. It’s just awkward, and he- he can’t believe he’s even thinking this, since she’s literally Eddie’s wife and Christopher’s mother, but – this is his safe space, his place, and she’s kinda a stranger, and thinking this makes him feel so guilty. He needs to relax. “I don’t think we officially met, by the way.” she reaches out, extending a hand. “I’m Shannon.” she grins.
“I know.” he chuckles, taking her hand. “I’m Buck. But you know that, too.”
“I do. Christopher won’t stop talking about you.” she laughs airily, face turning back to the screen, straightening her neck with another wince. “I feel like I know you already. And you probably heard all about me?” she glances at him, only eyes moving, and Buck notices some nerves in her expression and voice as well. So he’s not the only one feeling weird about all this.
“A little.” he shrugs. In reality, he knows most, maybe all of it. He’s not sure he wants to start this conversation, though, wherever she was going with this. “How are you feeling?” he adds, as a way of making small talk, but also because he wants to know. She’s been through something traumatic, and he feels awful for her.
“Like I got hit by a car.” she deadpans, a hint of a smirk on her lips, and he can’t help a surprising burst of laughter.
“This is so not funny.” he shakes his head, still chuckling.
“You’re laughing.” she shrugs with one shoulder.
“It’s so overused, though.” he argues, relaxing back against the couch. Okay, so maybe the nerves weren’t that warranted. He’s still a bit guarded, though, but that’s normal with strangers. If she’s going to be around now, for Chris, they’re surely going to be bumping into each other, so he needs to make an effort to be friendly. And, it turns out, it’s not that hard.
“Whatever, you still laughed.” she just grins. “Joking aside, I feel- kinda numb, kinda in pain. Always tired.” she sighs heavily. “And I’m so bored of just sitting here on the couch and doing nothing.”
“I can imagine.” Buck nods. He’d go crazy if he was bedridden, with no one to talk to most of the day, no way to leave the house, barely able to move on his own. He hopes he’d never have to experience that.

↳ 𝐓𝐀𝐆𝐆𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐀𝐋𝐎𝐍𝐆 — vash the stampede
fluff, slight domestic fluff, gender neutral reader, reader w a younger brother
bc i cant stop thinking abt vash and tonis’ interactions ^^
idk if i should tag this as modern au or not bc trigun literally takes place in like the year 2500+, normal au i guess ???? LOL
cw also mentions of reader and vash having their own kid, no specific mentions of pregnancy though!!
Tumblr media
you pull into the familiar parking lot of the preschool while vash squirms with excitement in the passenger seat. and he has been squirming, practically squealing over it for the past ten minutes.
“why are you so excited, idiot, he’s not even your brother!” you laugh softly as notice vash took off his seat belt even before you could even park the car.
“i dont know!” he admits honestly with a genuine smile on his face as he steps out of the car. “maybe it’s just the fact that we’re doing this instead of studying.” he jokes, looping his arm around yours as you walk to the front of the building.
usually whenever vash visited your place it was before your mother got home and before your little brother finished with school. today was different though: apparently your mother had an extra errand to run and couldn’t pick your brother up. vash, over hearing the entire conversation over the phone, was eager to declare that he would pick him up for her! (of course without telling your mother that it was to get out of studying.)
“‘kay, just don’t make trouble for the teacher.” you say sternly as he walks up ahead. and he’s got this smug, sweet smile on his face as he shrugs while politely swinging the door open for you.
as soon as you step in, it’s so loud. children running around and screaming over toys and games, anything to fill their freetime while they wait for their parents. the teacher catches sight of you almost immediately, completely used to the chaos of the afternoon.
“ah! y/n, there you are!” she drops students’ work of scribbles out of her hands before walking over and wrapping you in a friendly hug. she used to be your preschool teacher as well. “i was wondering when you’d show up,”
“ah, yeah, i got a little caught up with this one,” you sheepishly chuckle, pulling away from the hug to motion to the eager puppy next to you. and before she could even say anything, vash was reaching out.
“hi, i’m vash, y/n’s boyfriend!” and he’s got this warm, welcoming smile as he shakes the teacher’s hand. you could see the way she smiled sweetly back, as if she had known him for years. vash had a way with people. he could brighten up anyone’s day with just a couple words and a few charming smiles. it’s one of the things you admire most about him.
“he’s just tagging alone, trust me, we won’t stay long,” you interrupt with a small laugh, hoping not to add to the chaos already unfolding in the classroom.
“oh, pshh!” the teacher laughs and brings you both in, “it’s fine, stay as long as you want!” she exclaims, mostly to vash when she notices the way he’s already beaming at the children staring at him with big curious eyes. vash gives you a quick glance with a mischievous smile before he’s walking over to the nearest group of children. the teacher waves you off as she returns to her desk.
you walk up them and vash is already squatting down, meeting the kids face to face. they ask about his prosthetic arm almost immediately. they call it weird and strange as they watch him flex his fingers, asking why he even has it in the first place. and of course he laughs it off and claims he fought a big dragon that bit it off, and the children go screaming and laughing at how impressive and cool this random guy is. vash lets their little fingers touch along his palm, choruses of wow’s and woah’s as their little brains barely wrap around the idea that he’s missing his real arm.
more of the children come over and they want him to play trucks with them. little hands waving plastic toys in front of his face and of course with a smile, he takes them and starts rolling the trucks along the ground. and the children are laughing at the silly sound effects vash makes, and it causes you to giggle lightly along with them.
somehow, in the midst of the loud classroom, you find yourself thinking about living in your own house with vash while a little boy or girl runs around your legs. its embarrassing, but how could you not when he acts like this with little kids? when he speaks softer and plays with them
at some point, he ends up pretend-wrestling with the little kids. he claims his arm has evil powers as he just barely grazes the children with his fist while exclaiming, “haha i got you!” in his impression of a “villain” voice. and he’s rolling around on the carpet when their little fists punch him back, groaning and crying out in fake pain. it makes you laugh to yourself as he lays their with his tongue out in defeat by a bunch of four year olds as if he doesnt bench press over 200.
after almost 30 minutes of horsing around, most of the children leave, except for a few others. vash finally has to leave the kids alone as their parents come to pick them up. he ends up trudging over to where you’ve been standing to wrap his arms around your waist and rest his chin on your shoulder.
“y/n…” vash starts in a whiny voice.
“i swear if you tell me you want a kid all of a sudden-“
“no! no, no, no that’s not it,” he lies and you can tell. “they’re just so cute aren’t they?” vash mumbles softly, waving to the last of the kids as they leave.
you hum, lost in thought, “i guess so? sure playing with them is fun, but i have more than enough to take care of already.” your voice turns stern as you mockingly glare at him. and he’s all shits and giggles.
“cmon y/n, you know i was just playing around with them! and the teacher didn’t even to tell us to quiet down!” he giggles while pressing closer.
“yeah, but i bet she sure as hell wanted to-“
“if you wanted to play too, you could’ve just joined, you know,” he teases as he tenderly kisses your cheek.
you scoff and roll your eyes at this playful comments. and yet, you can’t help the way the domestic thoughts come flooding back as you watch as your little brother walks beside vash to the car, his small hand wrapped around vash’s index finger.

sirius fucking/getting fucked by moony headcanons? (how often it happens, who tops who bottoms, etc etc)
omg thank you so much for asking.
i think the first time it happens accidentally because remus is feeling riled up beforehand and when he sees padfoot, he just fucks him. sirius is like aye yo but he’s also like 😏
remus is horrified when they tell him about it later and sirius is like it’s fine, really. i’d even be down to do it again. haha jk. unless…. 👀
so they have lots of long conversations about it before it happens the next time. lots of preparation, discussions about consent, etc. they do it several times with sirius as padfoot, but then they have remus take wolfsbane potion so he can have sex with sirius in human form.
remus is super fucking nervous about it, but sirius is just excited. he keeps telling james and regulus about it. regulus is like pls for the love of god stop telling me about this, but james is very interested in a friendly, curious way.
remus/moony always tops bc he’s got a weird werewolf dominance thing going on, but he offers to bottom while on wolfsbane and sirius turns him down. he’s too interested in moony’s knot.
they don’t do it very often because it takes sirius a while to recover (and be able to walk normally again) but maybe once or twice a year.

wc: 1.5k
Pairing: Bradley "Rooster" Bradshaw x aviator!Reader
warnings: coarse language, fluff, mentions of alcohol and bars, most definitely some naval inaccuracies, no use of y/n (bc y/n is an unofficial oc and icky :D )
author's note: Enjoy!
Summary: You meet Bradley in the Hard Deck. The old honky tonk piano in the corner calling both of your names, you calling his heart.
R/N ~ Reader's name
R/L/N ~ Reader's last name
Callsign - “Magnet”
Masterlist
You walked into the Hard Deck, slipping your aviators onto your head. You squinted at the change in light levels, looking around the room. You'd been called back to TOP GUN to fly a classified Uranium mission. They'd called back the best of the best, and you did graduate top of your class. Clad in denim shorts, a white shirt, yellow Doc Martens with black and white strings, and a hawaiian print scarf strung through the belt loops.
It was late afternoon, so the bar had it's fair share of customers. The jukebox was playing, a group of aviators was playing pool, people were mingling, and the bar was lively. You walked up to the bar and knocked on it.
"What's it take for an aviator to get a drink around here?" you spoke in a playful tone. Penny turned around with raised eyebrows. Her face broke into a grin when she saw you standing in front of her.
"Mag!! How ya' been? You want the usual I'm guessing?" She spoke, abbreviating your callsign while whirling around to get your usual drink from the counters.
"Thanks, about as good as its gonna get. You?" You brought the drink to your lips, smiling behind the rim of the glass at her reaction. You'd always liked Penny. When you first came to Fightertown, you walked into the Hard Deck, and always found yourself wandering back. You lived on the outskirts of Fightertown, not far from where you are stationed from this mission.
"I'm going along!" she replies to your question, smiling apologetically when she has another customer to tend to. You smile understandingly and walk away and your attention is drawn to the piano in the room. It sits, waiting to be played. You'd loved music, especially older tunes. It's all your parents played around the house when you were growing up.
You walked over to the piano, tapping the notes of "Ain't no Mountain High Enough" in your right hand. Just the basic melody, when the jukebox music stopped, and people started circling the piano. You sat down, begining to play the entire song, while people sang along.
In the bustle, you hadn't heard the bell above the door jingle. Nor did you see the Adonis that was Bradley "Rooster" Bradshaw that just walked in.
The group of aviators that were playing a game of 9-Ball started to have more conversations among themselves. When the door opened, the conversation grew.
"Bradshaw...as I live and breathe."
"Hangman. You look...good."
"Well, I am good, Rooster. In fact- I am too good to be true."
"Whatever Seresin..." Bradley chuckled, shaking his head dismissively at Jake. The piano died out as you got off the bench to refill your drink.
The stop in music, and the screeching of the jukebox coming to life grabbed the attention of the aviators. The only person who caught your movement was Robert, or Bob "Bob" Floyd. He lifted his glasses off of his face, and lowered them again in disbelief.
"Is that- holy- that's R/N "Magnet" R/L/N!" he exclamed almost fanatically.
"Come again Bob?" Phoenix questioned.
"It's Magnet! One of, no, the best pilot of their class. 5 air to air combat kills, survived 3 SAM's, and as vicious on the ground as in the air. Quite the reputation they have really. How do none of you know this?" Bob rambles.
All the aviator's eyes follow you as you walk to the bar. Rooster tilts his head in intrigue, tucking his glasses into his pocket, and walking over to you leaning against the bar.
“Thanks Pen” You pick your new drink as you turn to see a guy next to you, who you don’t think was there previously. Was he?
He smiles a friendly smile, his brown eyes crinkling at the corners. He outstretched his hand toward you as he introduces himself.
“Hey, I’m Bradley Bradshaw, callsign: Rooster. Heard you’re an aviator like my friends and I over there, you wanna join us? Payback is racking up a game of 9-Ball.” He asks as you return his handshake. His hands are warm and calloused, although it wasn’t unpleasant. Toughened by constant use. This guy obviously wasn’t a WSO, he was definitely a pilot. You took in his frame, he wasn’t dressed like the other aviators. Then again, neither were you.
“R/N, R/L/N; callsign: Magnet.” nice to meet you. Sure I’ll join you guys.” you turned and started walking in the direction of the other aviators with him.
As you walked up to the table, Bradley introduced you to the rest of the aviators. You offered them a smile, and short wave. The WSO, Bob looked at you as if you hung the moon, completely in awe. You thought it was funny he was such a fan of you. Phoenix you found was the e only person with a semi-sane head on her shoulders; you liked her. The rest, Payback, Fanboy were all decent people. When Rooster introduced you to Hangman, a smirk fell on his lips, and he walked up to you, sizing you up.
“So…Magnet right? I hear you’re kind of good.”
“Yeah, Magnet, everyone always said I’m a magnet for trouble, although based on my stats you probably knew that already. And I’m not kind of good…I’m all kinds of good” you retorted with a smirk of your own, leaning against the pool table.
Hangman looked you up and down, and his smirk grew into a smile as he turned to Rooster.
“I like this one.”
Rooster smiled and shook his head dismissively, the tips of his ears burning red. He liked you too. You’re easy on the eyes, and you like music. He didn’t miss you playing the piano when you walked in. You seemed like you’d been here before; people loved you.
“Hey you guys are matching!” Phoenix called out pointing to his shirt and your makeshift belt. The two items of clothing adorned with hawaiian print. The both of you looked at one another and gave a small nod as of saying ‘huh I guess we are’. As he actually focused on you, he found himself thinking he’d take you on a date if given the chance. I men’s, you’d just stood up to Hangman, you were good looking, played the piano, like-able, and you had similar taste has him. He could hear his mom in his head already: Bradley if you don’t go on a date with this person! I don’t see how you could do much better than that, they’re perfect and you know it. You’re like your father in that way- impeccable taste. He laughed as he thought about his mom, when he looked back your eyes were fixed on his, and he felt his face burn red. You apparently found it amusing, a smile and a laugh slipping past your lips.
You continued small talk with the squadron, besting Hangman and Bob in multiple games of pool with Phoenix as your partner. Bradley had wandered away to the piano, and began to play ‘Great Balls of Fire’. He seemed to be in his element, fingers moving languidly against the keys, singing his heart out along with everyone else in the bar.
You joined in the song with a smile, cheering along with everyone when it was over. She. everyone dispersed and the jukebox was plugged back in, you walked up to Rooster and he looked up at you with a smile.
“How long have you been playing?”
“My whole life feels like, my dad and his best friend were in the navy too. Came here all the time, and loved that song. At least they did before my parents died. Haven’t seen Maverick- er, Pete since.” He spoke running the back of his neck awkwardly.
You nodded in understanding, letting your hand run across the top of the worn piano. As Rooster watched you, he decided he should listen to his mom’s advice.
“Hey, listen, would you maybe let me take you on a date? Get food, catch a movie, walk on the beach? Whatever you want!”
You smiled and tilted your head to the side.
“Really? I’m surprised you didn’t come up with some sort of weird pickup line like most guys here do, but sure I’d love to.” You spoke through laughs, and brought a relieved smile to Rooster’s face. He furrowed his eyebrows in thought.
“Oh, alright how about this for a pickup line?”
“Hit me with your best shot Bradshaw.” You leaned across the top of the piano.
He played some chords as he spoke.
“I think you should let me take you on a date so we can spend time together, walk along the beach, fall in love slowly and then all at once…why? Because my life without you would B-Flat!”
He landed on the note B-Flat on the piano as he finished talking. You both fell into fits of laughter, and talked for hours into the night. You left the Hard Deck hoping you’d see him again soon, although you could reach out to him whenever, you’d exchanged numbers after all. As you were driving back home, a surge of excitement hit you when you realized the group you’d made friends with were all aviators, and you could tell by the various accents, flight suit patches, and stories that they weren’t all from here. They were all coming back for the same classified mission you were. You definitely see him on base tomorrow and you couldn’t complain one bit.
~ The End

Idk fully how to feel about this guy I met in college. We weren’t in any classes together, he just saw me in the library while I was studying with a friend, and he started chatting with me about my jacket and interests. I didn’t think much of it, just thought he was being friendly and I did have a very cool jacket on that day. Then when our conversation ended I thought I would never see him again and I was okay with that. Y’know sometimes light conversation with a stranger can be fun, but then I did see him again.
This time he was with his friends and I was walking to class, so i politely nodded to him and was on my way. But he left his friends, in the middle of a conversation no less, to talk to me while I walked to class. Again I didn’t think much of it. We get to talking for a little bit and he shows me his insta(I mentioned I cosplayed and so did he) I think he expected me to follow him on insta but my class was gonna start so I cut the convo there and headed in.
Anyways class ends I head out and again I pass him and his friends, I tried nodding politely to him and he once again leaves his friends to talk to me. And I’m not gonna be rude so I engage in conversation even though I think it’s getting a little weird to just up and leave your friends for some person you met a day ago. Once again he mentions Instagram and actually asks me if I wanted to follow him there, I don’t have an insta. I told him that much and that was the end of it for a bit. I saw him a couple more times after this but they were kinda brief.
so I wasn't sure what to make of these interactions and I asked some friends and they all said he might’ve had a crush on me and was trying to find a way to contact me without asking for my number. And that freaked me out, so I started avoiding him cuz idk I just do that sometimes.
I think I did it partly bc I’m aroace and I didn’t want to run the risk of this guy asking me out. I think I did it bc I had a bad experience with this guy who became obsessive with me even though I cut it off with him and I didn’t want that again. Idk he was a nice guy but the walking me to my class and to my car got me scared. A question to other aroaces who’ve had obsessive ppl in their lives, when do you stop being afraid of ppl trying to get close to you and when do you stop fearing it’s for the wrong reasons?

Domestic! Booker x Reader HC’s pt. 2
A/n: I wanted to write more of these bc I enjoyed writing the first part. This one will be less organized and more about random aspects of married life with this loser man.
CW: mentions of male masturbation, vague mentions of sex, mentions of fighting, reader is afab, slight jealousy. I think that’s it?? Bad grammar bc this is rushed and NOT proofread 😭 MINORS DNI.
»»————- ★ ————-««
» Booker got jealous only sometimes. Jealousy stems from insecurities and Booker likes to tell himself he isn’t insecure (he is), so whenever another man would hit on you right in front of him, he’d clear his throat and give the man an unamused look, and then he’d worry about his feelings later.
» You never gave any of these men the time of day. Yes, your husband was a very difficult man, but you loved him all the same. Your lack of acknowledgment towards these men helped his jealousy, but those few times that a stranger would be so charming that he’d catch you giggling at something they’d say, well…Booker would puff out his chest a little bit.
» He’d wrap an arm around you, stand to his full height, and glare at the stranger with a simple “can i help you?” His look would be enough to send the stranger on his way without another glance at you.
» Later that night you’d randomly reassure him that you loved him and you were only being friendly. He knew that, but his pride got in his way of talking about his feelings. He just didn’t understand how you could be so nice all the time.
» Speaking of, the two of you were complete opposites. You were positive and friendly, always striking up a conversation with a random stranger in line at the grocery store, or complimenting someone on their appearance. You never failed to make someone smile, and you brought a warm energy with you wherever you went.
» Booker, on the other hand, was quiet and pessimistic. He didn’t talk to anyone unless he absolutely had to, and even then it was only a few words. He spoke to you the most because he trusted you the most. His tone was constantly rough and unamused, like he always had somewhere better he wanted to be (with you at home).
» Many of your friends wondered how the hell you put up with his behavior all the time. He was so..negative. You told them that he wasn’t always like that. And it’s true.
One morning Booker had awoken to the smell of freshly brewed coffee and what smelled like bacon and slightly burnt toast. He left the room and found you in the kitchen with the sun peeking through the blinds, your hair messy and sleep still in your eyes. But you stood there, humming to yourself as you buttered some toast for the two of you.
He leaned against the doorframe and felt a grin spread across his face. Booker rarely smiled. But this smile was genuine, and it felt nice. He smiled because there you were, the love of his life making breakfast for the two of you just because you wanted to. Because you loved him.
He came up behind you and slowly wrapped his arms around your waist, leaning down to kiss the side of your head, smelling the scent of your sweet shampoo. “I’m so lucky to have you. I love you.” He whispered, which made you smile from ear to ear. Yes, Booker was negative, but when he stopped and watched you, just watched you, he felt as if everything in the world was alright.
Another time you remember was when he was gone at work and you had the day off. You decided to break out your paints and canvasses after keeping them in the attic for a few years. After getting married, your life was chaotic and you barely had time for your old hobby. But with the house cleaned and Booker away, you thought why the hell not.
You used to be good at painting, even entering some of your paintings in art festivals and earning some reward money. But that was years ago, and you were sure you weren’t as good as you were then.
You set your supplies up on the balcony in the backyard just as the sun began to set and you got to work, trying to find some inspiration. You mindlessly painted until you heard the balcony door slide open and your husband’s voice calling your name.
“Honey?” He asked, making his way outside. The sun had set and it was a few degrees colder. You sighed as you looked at your painting. You thought it was hideous. He came up behind you and looked at the canvas. “What is it?” He asked, tilting his head to the side to try and make out the picture.
You groaned and covered your face. “It’s supposed to be us..” you said, your voice filled with embarrassment. “It’s…abstract I guess.” Your shoulders slumped. You heard a light chuckle behind you and you pulled your hands from your face to see your husband smiling back at you. “I love it. It’s different. It’s very you.” He said softly and before you knew it, he was heading back inside with a pat on your head.
Those words meant a lot. And when you later found the picture hanging up in his office, you couldn’t help but feel a warmth in your heart.
» He’s not much of a cuddler. He prefers to sleep on separate sides of the beds, but sometimes you’d find yourself waking up with your head on his chest and his arm tucked around you. Or you’d wake up in the middle of night to Booker’s heavy breathing as he pulls you closer to him after he’s had a nightmare. He lied. He’s definitely a cuddler.
» He has a bad habit of ignoring you when you fought. You’d be so frustrated with him that you’d start crying and he’d just ignore you for a while, figuring that you probably needed some time alone. He didn’t like seeing you cry, especially not because of him, but he also didn’t want to make you feel worse by saying something wrong. But later he’d come and you two would make up.
“I don’t know what to do anymore” You scoffed, tears steaming down your face as you threw your hands up in desperation. All you got in response was a sigh and the sound of a door firmly shutting. And then silence. Booker had come home in a shitty mood. He had a bad day and decided to take it out on his loving wife. He was being really snappy and short with you, you did everything to try and make him feel better, but to no avail. All you got was a “goddamn it woman, leave me alone.” And then a cold shoulder. It pissed you off beyond belief.
You sat at the kitchen table and sobbed as you ate dinner alone. You weren’t very hungry, having your appetite ruined by your husband’s attitude. While you cried very easily, husbands weren’t supposed to take their anger out on their loving wives. You sat there with your head in your hands, your shoulders softly shaking as you let out your frustrations.
You didn’t register the sound of the door opening and closing gently, and his slow footsteps as he approached you. Only when you felt his rough hand on your shoulder did you recognize his presence. “I’m sorry.” He whispered. “Please don’t cry. I love you.” It wasn’t the greatest apology, but it was something.
» Booker denies any accusations that he’s clingy. He laughs dryly in your face whenever you try and tell him that he needs you more than he thinks he does. You like to bring up a specific time that proves that you’re right.
The house was quiet. Way too quiet and way too cold for Booker’s liking. He sat on the couch, unsure of what to do as you were gone on vacation with your friends. You’d only been gone on your trip for two hours, barely having made it to the airport before Booker was bored out of his mind. Sure, he had work during the day, but what was he supposed to do after he got home? Usually you would rope him into cooking dinner with you, and then settling down to watch a tv show until you went to bed. But now he was unsure of how he’d spend his evenings in the week you’d be gone.
By the fifth day, he was fighting himself. He’d already slept with your pillow close to his chest, his face buried in it so he’d smell your shampoo. It wasn’t working. He missed you so much it was unbearable. Your cell service wasn’t great where you were, so he’d receive sporadic updates on your trip, enough to ensure you were safe for the day.
By the sixth day, he was masturbating to old pictures of you. Some of the pictures weren’t even dirty, some innocent, Random pictures he’d take throughout the day. But when he used this imagination, he could remember the feeling of your soft skin as his calloused hands roamed your body, the cute noises you made, and how you felt around him as he pulled orgasm after orgasm from you. It still wasn’t enough.
By the seventh day, he was practically on the edge of his seat all day waiting for you to walk through that front door. And as soon as you did, he was all over you. He pulled your suitcases out of your hands and pinned you to the wall. He’d whisper how much he missed you and how unbearable your absence was.
And then he’d keep you in bed for hours.
» Whenever he agreed to go shopping with you, on the rare occasion he did, he didn’t expect you to actually take your time in the store, looking at every single article of clothing. He’d follow you around with an unamused look on his face, sighing loudly.
You were looking at a cute dress that had caught your eye when you heard yet another loud sigh from behind you. You rolled your eyes, clearly amused by his obvious attempts to prove how bored he was. “Something wrong?” You asked without looking at him.
“Nope.” He said sarcastically. “I’m having the time of my life.” He said dryly as he looked around the store, soft music playing in the background. He felt as if his brain was going to melt from how bored he was. But he felt his interest pique when you grabbed his hand and pulled him to the lingerie section.

anyways, I hope you understand :( I'm really sorry for those who requested, I'll try to post them asap
Tumblr media
You remember when you first met him one year ago, you and Sunwoo were classmates but never talked to each other before, all you knew was each other's name. Your test had just begun and you were so focused on it that the touch on your shoulder startled you, so much you could hear your heart beating faster, you tried to hide it as fast as possible, but Sunwoo still noticed it, his smile got bigger and he was laughing inside, trying his best to not actually laugh, because of how cute you looked when you got scared.
"Can I borrow your eraser?" he whispered with a friendly smile on his face, for a brief second you couldn't stop staring at him, part of you was still in shock trying to process what he said, while the other was mesmerized by him.
"Sure" you nodded, handing him the eraser which he returned with the same smile and then focused again on his test, you took a deep breath to calm down your racing heart before doing the same.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
After that you found that he was a friend of a friend, so you and Sunwoo became close, every day you and Sunwoo were the first ones among your friends to arrive at school and that made it easier to talk to him alone. 
"Y/n, what do you want to do in the future?" Sunwoo asked, it had been just a few weeks since you two started to talk more frequently, you two were waiting for your friends to arrive at class and he was always curious about you.
"Mm… I don't really think about it right now, I just want to live the moment I guess… you?"
"For now I want to study abroad, I always wanted to leave this place and I think educational purposes is a good excuse right?" you let out a soft laugh, Sunwoo smiled and stared at you, he always thought your smile was the cutest
"But why do you want to leave here?" 
"My life feels so dull, like no ups and downs, it's just a straight line, my parents are quite strict so they don’t let me do a lot of things, so studying abroad seems like the only way to have more freedom" Sunwoo noticed this was the first time he was talking about this to someone, he loves his friends but he never got the chance to have this kind of conversation with them, but with you, it was so easy to talk to.
With time you noticed that he was a very bright and funny guy, but also very mature when needed, which quickly made you want to be with him all the time and before you even noticed, you started falling for him, but you never got the guts to tell him how you feel, you tried showing him signs but he probably didn't catch it.
Tumblr media
You're sitting down next to your friends and Sunwoo is also there, you wanted to sit next to him but your friends sat there before you could, so you would randomly look at him in the middle of the class admiring his beauty, he was so close yet so far. None of your friends knew about your crush on Sunwoo besides Chanhee, your closest friend and also the one who officially introduced you to him.
The door opened and you could see Chanhee slowly entering the room, he bowed saying sorry for being late to the professor and walking toward you.
“Always late…” you muttered, shaking your head in a disapproving way to tease him 
“Always staring at him..” Chanhee whispered in your ear sitting down next to you, you sent him a death glare for a second and returned your attention to the class.
Tumblr media
"Y/n! Finally!" Sunwoo smiled, holding a bunch of notes, you could feel your heart beating louder and breathing getting harder "help me study for the test please!"
You giggled sitting in front of him "you're studying 15 minutes before the test?"
"Well… better than nothing right? At least I’m not late like Chanhee" he stated making you laugh. You tried teaching him everything you knew as fast as possible before you heard the ring bell indicating the test would begin soon.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“Let’s have lunch together” one of your friends said after the class ended
“Yeah let's go!” Sunwoo wrapped his arms around Chanhee’s shoulder looking at you “you’re coming too right?”
“Of course! Me too” Chanhee answered for you after realizing the silly smile on your face looking at Sunwoo, showing that you weren’t paying attention to anything else.
This time you managed to sit next to him while Chanhee was in front of you. While waiting for your orders, your friends talked about random stuff and Sunwoo would eventually murmur something to you.
“Hey Sunwoo!” Eric said in his loud voice, getting everyone’s attention “is it true you’re going out with that new girl? What was her name again..?”
“Hyejin.. and no, I talked to her just a few times” Sunwoo quickly tried to change the subject but Eric brought it back
“She’s pretty tho, why don’t you give it a shot? Want me to help?” Eric winked at him, Sunwoo just scoffed, looking away without answering “oh.. is that a yes?” he again ignored what Eric said, taking his phone out of his pocket.
Chanhee looked at you trying to read your face, when you two made eye contact he whispered a “are you okay?”, you just nodded, but he didn’t believe you so he kept paying attention to you. Sunwoo not answering the question was even worse than if he said yes, at least you would know what he thinks but now you had no idea. You weren’t exactly upset, but you really wanted to choke Eric at that moment.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You and your friends decide to go to a convenience store nearby. You stood outside, waiting for them since you weren’t buying anything. You kicked the stones on the floor as a way to distract yourself, you were spacing out at the moment and didn’t notice Sunwoo standing next to you.
“What are you doing?” he whispered in your ear startling you, making him laugh “you’re such a scaredy cat”
“Why you always do that when I’m distracted..” you whimpered, he smiled at your cuteness wanting to pinch your cheeks, but he held himself
“Y/n look!” he pointed to the floor, crouching down to pick it up “make a wish” he held the flower in front of you
You smiled thinking for a moment before blowing the dandelion, you looked at him and he had the same smile from the day he asked for your eraser. You two stared at each other for a few seconds before you heard the door open and your friends coming out holding their bags full of food.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The next day you and Sunwoo were talking to each other before Eric stormed into the classroom “Sunwoo! Come here”, he stood up walking toward Eric 
“What is it?” Sunwoo asked and Eric put his arms around his shoulders forcing Sunwoo to walk with him, you couldn’t hear exactly what they said but you did hear Hyejin’s name, you once again wanted to choke Eric.
“Hyejin is looking for you” Eric said while leaving the room, Sunwoo stopped and frowned at the other boy “what?” Eric questioned, confused.
“What does she want?” Eric shrugged his shoulders “tell her I’m busy” Sunwoo said turning around to go back to you but Eric stopped him with a disapproving look, “whatever it is she can tell me later right?”
Eric thought Sunwoo was just shy at first, but then noticed he wasn’t interested on her, he didn’t want to force him to do something he didn’t want so Eric didn’t insist anymore, but as soon as they were about to go back to the classroom, they heard a female voice calling Sunwoo’s name. He wanted to pretend he didn’t listen but he didn’t want to look rude, so he just smiled softly looking at the girl coming in his direction.
“Get in and make y/n some company ok?” Sunwoo whispered to Eric, he just nodded and did what he said
Eric sat in front of you, putting his bag on the floor, when he looked at you at first he noticed a small pout on your face, but as soon as you looked at him it turned into a soft smile.
“You okay?” he looked at you waiting for your response, but you just nodded, paying attention to something else. At that moment, something clicked in Eric’s head, but since he wasn’t so sure of it he decided to not ask you about it.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
For the next few days, Sunwoo tried his best to be close to you, he loved your company but you noticed he wasn’t so bright as he used to be. He still smiled and laughed often, but it sounded like he was forcing it and you didn’t know why.
“Y/n” you were sitting on the grass taking a few notes when Sunwoo showed up behind you, his voice sounded softer than usual. You looked back at him and saw a faint smile on his face, he sat next to you and for a second you forgot how to breathe, but you managed to maintain your composure.
“You okay?” you asked, realizing he looked upset. Sunwoo wanted to show you only his good side so he always tried to smile, but he also felt comfortable being vulnerable only around you.
“Yeah I…” he sighed, thinking for a moment about how he was going to say it “I’m moving to another country next week…” Sunwoo just spat it out, then stayed in silence for a few seconds, not having the courage to look into your eyes “you know my parents want me to study abroad, I also worked very hard for it, but now I don’t know if I really want to go”
You both stayed silent for a moment, you already expected that one day he would tell you he was moving but you still felt upset. Sunwoo was vaguely looking down, he grabbed a flower from the floor and held it in front of you. 
"I thought you always wanted to live abroad" you said as soon as you grabbed the flower from his hands and you could feel your heart aching.
"Yeah I just.. I started to really like it here, I don't know if I can just leave it all behind" he looked around as if trying to picture everything before it was too late.
"It will be good for you, all the experience and you’ll probably make lots of friends too, don't give up" you didn't want him to regret later for not going, it's better to regret doing it than not doing it, right?
He quickly put a smile on his face "make a wish" he pointed to the dandelion you were holding. You looked at it in your hands not being able to even force a smile like Sunwoo, but you did as he said, blowing the flower.
"You want to know my wish?" you asked, looking at him as he shook his head, still smiling.
"If you tell me it won't come true" he messed your hair and stood up "don't be sad I won't be here to scare you anymore", you two giggled as he reached his hands to help you stand up.
Tumblr media
You were heading to the airport, Chanhee and your friends were already there, making Sunwoo company until his flight, you lost track of time and were afraid you wouldn't make it in time.
Sunwoo was feeling anxious, his feet shaking seeing the time pass and worried he would not be able to see you one last time. He looked at his phone every minute to see if you sent him anything, at this point he was already thinking of giving up his decision of leaving the country, thinking he wouldn’t see you and his friends again, even though it was just temporary, he was starting to regret it and he could feel tears building up in his eyes. You ran as fast as possible, hearing the calls to his flight cursing at yourself for losing track of time.
"Y/n!" Sunwoo could finally smile, he walked towards you and opened his arms, hugging you tightly.
"I'm so sorry.. I'm late" you said trying to catch your breath 
"It's okay, I'm happy I can at least say goodbye to you" he broke the hug, holding your shoulders "I'll miss you the most y/n…"
"Sunwoo I-" you were interrupted by the last call
"Sorry I need to go... bye y/n" Sunwoo hesitated for a moment, not letting you go, but he sighed in defeat trying his best to not cry in front of you, he let you go and walked away, waving at you and your friends.
"You okay?" Chanhee rubbed your back trying to comfort you
"I couldn't tell him… I wanted to tell him…" you said, still breathless, cursing yourself again for getting there too late.
Tumblr media
"Have you been talking to Sunwoo?" Eric asked you, leaning on the wall while crossing his arms.
"Can I ask you something?" he said seriously after a few seconds of silence
"Not very often, there are 13 hours between us so it's hard to talk to him" you answered picking up all your stuff
"You just did" you didn’t look at him, just focused on whatever you were doing
"I will anyways" he giggled "were you and Sunwoo dating?"
"No… why?" you looked at him, surprised by his question
"I’m pretty sure he likes you" he tilted his head, saying it like it was obvious “you like him too right?" you turned your attention to your backpack again, not answering him "I'm sorry I tried to push him to Hyejin back then, I hope that didn’t get between you two"
“It’s ok… wasn’t he interested in her?” Eric shook his head, standing straight
“I thought he was just shy at first, but he really wasn’t, he even told me one day that she confessed to him, but he rejected her because he already liked someone, he didn’t tell me who, but I know it was you… you are prettier though” Eric smiled and messed with your hair before taking his bag and waving goodbye to you “and you two make a pretty good couple”.
Tumblr media
"Sunwoo!" he was sitting on the grass like he always did, plucking out random leaves and flowers when he heard his recent new friend calling him "we are going to a club tonight, wanna come?"
"Oh hey Kevin" he said, grabbing one of the flowers there "I don't know… I don't really feel like going, sorry…"
"It's ok!" Kevin smiled while sitting down next to Sunwoo "that's a dandelion right?" he pointed to the flower Sunwoo was holding
"Yeah… it reminds me of someone" he hugged his legs, resting his chin on his knee still looking at the flower
"And… you like this someone?" he asked in a curious tone and Sunwoo nodded
"I really miss her… I wish I had the guts to confess to her before I left, but I think it's better this way, I’ll just get over it…" Sunwoo blew the dandelion, wishing one day you would know how he feels, he stared at the petals flying away while Kevin patted his back trying to comfort him somehow.
“You know what? I’m going with you tonight” Sunwoo looked at Kevin, who smiled weakly and nodded. That night they went to the club together and met some of their friends. Kevin knew Sunwoo got as drunk as he could so he would not feel so sad about the things he said to him earlier.
Sunwoo took his phone and opened your chat, he started recording a voice message to you without thinking twice. 
He then sent the audio and when Sunwoo sobered up he regretted and cursed at himself thousands of times, not knowing you never received it for some reason, but still anxiously waiting for your response which never came.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“What’s with that face?” Chanhee asked, sitting in front of you. You were pouting again, thousands of thoughts running in your head.
“Do you think Sunwoo found someone there?” You said without thinking, you regretted it a second later, afraid of what he would say.
“I don’t know… I don’t think so” 
“He is not talking to me anymore…” you looked at your phone for the nth time, seeing if there was at least a signal of life from Sunwoo
“Y/n… I know he will be away for a few years and will be back, but are you really going to wait for him?” Chanhee tried his best to not sound too insensitive, but he didn’t want you to get hurt
“What do you mean?” you looked at him questioning, even though you already knew the answer, actually you knew it a long time ago, but you refused to accept it.
“I mean that… maybe you should move on” you looked away, still not wanting to do it
“It’s not that easy Chanhee…”
“I know…” you both knew there was nothing you could do at that moment, you know Chanhee is probably right, Sunwoo can be with anyone he wants and so do you, but why do you feel so sad about losing someone who was never actually yours?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Sunwoo wanted to call you every night, but he always hesitated before pressing the button and eventually gave up. He can’t help wondering what you thought when you heard the message, maybe you never liked him back and didn’t want to be mean to him, so he just ruined your friendship, so like this he convinces himself that it is better to be far away from you. His new life was not bad, he had the freedom he always wanted, and he has nice friends, but it was not all happiness as he thought it would be, every night he wished you would not forget him.
It’s been three years since Sunwoo left, at first you both would make some effort to at least text each other, but at a point you two gave up and just stopped talking. It was hard at the beginning, but eventually, you stopped thinking about him, keeping yourself busy was the best way to do so. You could still feel your heart sinking whenever you heard his name, but with time it didn’t hurt so much anymore.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You heard your name being called, you took your coffee order and turned around to leave, but suddenly a guy who was putting his jacket on raised his arms and knocked your cup, spilling coffee all over you.
“Oh my god... I’m so sorry…” the boy said, panicking taking a bunch of tissues to try to help you
“It’s ok, don’t worry..” you said waving your hands, showing it was fine
“I’ll pay the laundry… let me give you my number” he said searching for a piece of paper to write.
“It’s really fine, don't worry about that...” you said while holding your shirt so it would stop sticking to your body.
“But… I feel bad about it…” he said so low you almost couldn’t hear “let me pay you another coffee then”
“Alright then… I’ll just clean this first” he nodded smiling, you went to the bathroom trying to clean the coffee stains on your shirt, but almost nothing changed, for your luck, kind of, you had a sweater you could wear to hide the stains so you did. When you left the bathroom, the boy was standing there holding a cup.
“Here! I’m really sorry about that” he shyly smiled while handing you the coffee “Are you sure you don’t want me to pay for the laundry?”
"It's fine, you already got me another coffee" you smiled to reassure him
⠀⠀⠀⠀
“I can’t believe you didn’t get his number!” Chanhee walked next to you, you told him what happened at the coffee shop while you two were heading to a club.
“I- there was coffee all over me, I wasn’t really thinking…”
“Ugh you seriously… Do you even know his name?”
“No… He didn’t tell me and I didn’t ask…”
“It was right there, he was going to give you his number, you just had to accept it! Stupid…” he sighed shaking his head, frustrated that you wasted such an opportunity. You know Chanhee was scolding you in a teasing way, but you too were regretting it.
You both arrived at the club, Chanhee went to grab a drink when you saw a familiar face walking towards you.
“Hi!” he was holding a drink, smiling so innocently. You grinned, happy that you two met again when a few minutes ago you thought you would never see him again, it felt like it was destiny.
“Hey! You’re the guy that spilled my coffee right?” you asked teasingly, the boy laughed putting his drink on the table
“Yeah… it sucks that this is how you remember me…” you giggled, you were about to ask him his name but someone else interrupted you.
“Hey Kevin!” you heard another guy calling him, right after he showed up behind him softly slapping his arm “you were supposed to wait for me!”
Your eyes widened and your smile slowly faded when you looked at the other guy and when he saw you, he had the same reaction, the boy, whom you now know it’s Kevin, looked at you both not understanding what was happening.
“Do you guys know each other?”
“Y/n?” He said ignoring Kevin, in fact, he didn’t even listen to what he said.
“Sunwoo… when did you come back?” you forced a smile, hiding how awkward you were feeling at that moment
“Last week” Sunwoo looked at Kevin as if telling him to leave you two alone, Kevin noticed it and excused himself “it’s been a while”
“Yeah… Chanhee is here with me, we should all hang out sometime!”
“Yeah sure, I’ll call you!”
“Oh you still have my number?” you didn’t realize at that moment that it sounded like you were complaining about him never talking to you again.
“Um… I think I do, is it still the same?” he took his phone feeling a little embarrassed as you nodded 
“Kim Sunwoo! You’re back!” Chanhee suddenly showed up and greeted Sunwoo “I thought you forgot about us”
“Of course not… I’m sorry I haven’t kept in touch” Chanhee and Sunwoo kept talking like nothing changed, just like they always did 3 years ago.
You weren’t paying attention to what they were saying, as you were looking at them, you realized that Chanhee didn’t change a lot in comparison to Sunwoo, or maybe you just never noticed because you saw Chanhee almost everyday, but you didn’t see Sunwoo for years. You were thinking about how much Sunwoo had changed, but at the same time still looked the same. He looked more mature and more handsome if that was even possible, and as you were looking at him, you smiled like an idiot without even noticing, forgetting about everything else.
Tumblr media
“Chanhee is gonna be late…” You put your phone away after talking to Chanhee, he said he was getting ready and would arrive in a few minutes. You told him to not be late because you thought you would feel awkward if it was just you and Sunwoo, but what did you expect?
“Typical of him” Sunwoo scoffed, crossing his arms, he was sitting in front of you at the cafe. “He hasn't changed a bit uh?” he said laughing.
You two waited for him, but after almost 2 hours you realized he wasn’t coming. You took your phone to swear at him for doing this to you, Chanhee read it but didn’t reply
“I guess he is not coming” Sunwoo said and you shyly smiled, silence hitting you both and awkwardness growing. You two tried distracting yourselves with something, looking away from each other and avoiding talking, until Sunwoo clicked his tongue and broke the silence.
“I need to ask you something” he leaned in and rested his arms on the table “Why did you never answer my message?” You frowned, confused at what he was talking about.
“What message? You’re the one who never reached me anymore…”
“I know for sure I sent you a message, I waited for your response for weeks”
You took your phone and searched for his chat, you now wonder why you still have your conversation with him. “There is nothing Sunwoo… the last message was mine”
Sunwoo then did the same and showed it to you “See? I sent you an audio”
“Which I never received…” you showed your phone to him, both screens showing different things “What did it say? The audio”
“It doesn’t matter now” he sighed in relief, putting his phone away, he felt like a weight had been lifted from him “Sorry, I didn’t know you never got it… I kept resenting you for ignoring it” he chuckled embarrassedly
“It’s fine… I did the same thinking you ghosted me” you admitted, curious about what he said that he waited so long for your answer.
“Should we go somewhere else?” Sunwoo said, trying to change the subject. You agreed to him, you two stood up and started walking around just to pass the time. You told him how you met Kevin and Sunwoo talked about how he met him and how it was to live alone in another country “You know Kevin kept saying that he regretted not asking the number of a girl, someone he accidentally knocked the coffee on, if I knew it was you I would have told him to back o-” he suddenly stopped talking when he realized what he was saying, hoping you didn’t hear that.
You listened to him attentively and from what he said, it seemed like he had a good time there and maybe that’s why he never spoke to you or your friends again. You couldn’t help sulking up for a brief moment, still Sunwoo noticed it and stopped walking, when you noticed it you looked at him confused.
He walked near you and put your hair away, his face stopped a few inches from yours, you felt a cold sensation so you looked down your neck and saw a necklace. “It reminded me of you when I saw this” he was standing still in front of you smiling “I was afraid I would never have the chance to give you this”
You stared at the necklace speechless, feeling your heart beating like crazy, it was so hard for you to get over him but now you felt like the same person from 3 years ago who was head over heels for him, and now you don’t know if it’s just the feelings from the past coming back or if you’re falling for him all over again, maybe you just never stopped loving him.
You two decided to stop at a park nearby to rest, as you were walking Sunwoo suddenly stopped and picked something from the floor. You two sat down at the bench and he looked at the flower he just picked up.
“Why do I keep finding this? Is the universe trying to tell me something or what?” he giggled “Make a wish, I think I already asked for too many things”. You smiled and thought about something to wish for. The last time you did this you were with him too, and you remembered your wish was for him to reciprocate your feelings, little did you know that it was fulfilled before you even wished for it.
“I made a wish a few years ago, but I guess no flower can grant me that so I’m the only one who can make it come true” he stared at you like he was in a trance, you looked at him taken aback and your eyes met.
“What do you mean?” you did your best to sound as calmest as possible.
‘Well… fuck it I’m telling her now’ he thought before gathering the courage to say it out loud “I wished that you would know how I felt” he turned his body to you and he would slowly lean closer, more and more “I wished that one day you would be mine, I regretted every day not telling you that before” you stared at him in complete shock, his face was so close to yours your breaths mixed “I was in love with you and I’m in love with you again” he stayed silent for a second, trying to read your expression to know if he should move away “Actually I think I never stopped loving you”
He stares into your eyes, waiting for you to say something. You blinked many times and had your mouth slightly open, thinking to yourself “Am I dreaming? Did he really say that?”
“Now it’s the time you say you don’t feel the same” he smiled  “Or else I’ll kiss you”
“I- you- are you serious?”
Sunwoo stayed silent and took his phone, he opened your chat and played the voice message he sent you that day he got drunk at the club. 
“y/n hi… it’s Sunwoo… I miss you miss” he giggled at himself “You know… on that day you sat next to me and I needed an eraser, I could just have asked my friend in front of me, but I wanted an excuse to talk to you and I ended up scaring you, did you know you look very cute when you get scared?” he chuckled again and stayed silent for a few seconds, the effects of the alcohol still strong in his body “I heard people talking about a love that comes once in a lifetime and I thought that’s bullshit, but I’ve never known anybody like you, when I’m with you I feel so alive and free, I forget how to breathe you know? I just wish you loved me back…” Sunwoo went silent again and took a deep breath, this time starting to feel nauseous “I think I’m gonna pass out at any moment…but I really mean it… everything”
Sunwoo took a deep breath trying to figure out what you were thinking “I still feel the same way… even after all this time”, he pressed his lips together, feeling a little embarrassed about the drunk audio he just showed you “How about you answer it now?”
“That day at the airport I wanted to tell you this, I even practiced before and I lost track of time but I couldn’t tell you… since the first time I saw you, you made my heart beat like crazy and you never left my head after that, whenever I was with you I was the happiest” Sunwoo now has the same reaction you had when he confessed his feelings to you “I wonder what would be different now if I didn’t get late that day and told you that I loved you”
“You loved me? And now...?” 
“I still love you Sunwoo…” Sunwoo's eyes widened and he cupped your cheeks bringing you closer to him, he smiled looking deeply into your eyes before kissing you. 
“I wanted to do this for so long...” he said putting your foreheads together, his hands still cupping your face while yours were on his waist.
“Me too…” you chuckled

“I guess that it just wasn’t the right time for us, but what matters is that we can be together now” you nodded agreeing with him, he then hugged you, resting his head on your shoulders ”I need to thank all those dandelions now”
(I forgot about the taglist, is this right? I don't even remember how to do this anymore hahah, let me know if I tagged you wrong~)

I HAVE COME TO ANSWER YOUR PRAYERS BC PETE IS MY LIFE LINE.
Okay okay okay…
So you and the goths (minus Firkle) go to this goth club (yes they exist there’s one near me i frequent). Y/n and is dancing and what not and Pete is like AWOOGA and asks if she wants to “ditch these posers and go home with me”
(im so sorry if this doesn’t make sense i can’t explain shit for the life of me)
NO IT MAKES SENSE but I added a lil twist to it 😈
I’ve deemed this to be a two parter, so here’s part 1!
You’ll get the good bits in part 2!
~~~~~~
Everytime that the elder goths got back together in their small town of South Park, Colorado, it was tradition that the first thing they did was go visit “The Red Lounge”. It was a town famous Goth club that they had frequented for years, and even though they don’t go as much as they used to, it was fun to relive their glory days, just listening to the music playing and drinking just a little too much wine. Pete, Michael and Henrietta normally opted to just sit at the bar, deep into the yelling conversation they were having. The music was a little louder tonight, and it was tough for any of them to hear the others without raising their voices.
Which brings us to the moment at hand. Pete rolled his eyes and sighed after Michael ‘What?’ed him for the 3rd time. He took another swig of his wine before repeating himself once again, slowly and with more enunciation. Michael’s mouth formed an ‘O’ as he finally heard, nodding his head slowly as Pete’s words processed in his head. The redhead turned to look at Henrietta, who was just nursing her glass of alcohol, not paying attention to what was going on around her. Michael and Henrietta were probably way too drunk, but that didn’t stop them from keeping on. Their hangovers were gonna be ass, but that didn’t stop them before, and it wasn’t going to stop them now.
Pete’s eyes darted to the dance floor, his gaze scanning over the crowd of people who were dancing along to the beat that was playing. He sucked his teeth at the crowd, rolling his eyes as he watched people ‘embarrass’ themselves by having fun. It might have been because he was in a bad mood, or it might have been the lack of conversation with his friends, but something urged him to get up and leave the club. He would much rather prefer to be in his bed, comfortable and sleeping rather than feel like his head was going to explode at any minute.
“Hey!”
His head whipped to the side, his gaze landing on the source of the greeting. A person with an extremely friendly smile caught his eyes, and the person moved a little closer to Pete. With the lights from the bar landing on them, the redheaded goth could make out their features a little better. Kind, soft (e/c) doe eyes that were surrounded by an intricately designed eyeliner shape stared warmly into his own. Their skin was radiant in the low lighting, seeming to shimmer in the dark.
“You look lonely!” they shouted over the music, leaning a little too much of their weight on him. Pete scoffed, but accepted their weight. “I’m actually here with these two idiots!” he yelled back, ignoring the drunken glare from Michael and Henrietta. The stranger turned their head to glance at each of them, shooting a smile in their directions. Turning their head back to Pete, their smile grew wider. “My name is (Y/n)! Come dance with me!” the stranger, now dubbed (Y/n), offered, their hand slinking around Pete’s wrist. The only answer he gave was a head shake, signaling his denial at (Y/n)’s offer. The (h/c) pouted, before yanking Pete from the barstool he perched himself on.
Michael and Henrietta were laughing at the poor man’s misfortune. Or, at least, that’s what they thought he was thinking about the situation. Despite how annoying Pete thought (Y/n) was, he was enthralled with their person. They were stumbly, giggly, and drunk. It was kind of cute, Pete thought, though he would never admit it out loud. His friends’ phones were pointed at and recording Pete as his new companian pulled him closer, guiding him into moving his hips with theirs. In all honesty, if the redhead could have been closer to them, he would have been able to die peacefully that night. He grumbled at his friends, but became preoccupied with the new person, attempting to very stiffly move in rythym with them.
This only cause (Y/n) to laugh, and then drape their arms around his neck. Leaning in, ther lips pressed softly against his ear, their tongue darting out to lick the shell. “Ditch those posers and come home with me,” they purred, pulling back from Pete to study his face. His eyes were wide and his face quickly starting matching his hair town. Sparing one last glance over to his friends, who were still taking the piss out of him, his eyes landed back on (Y/n)’s. Pete could only nod at their words, and let himself be dragged away by them after they gave a cheer, a grin splitting their face. Pete threw once last glance to his two friends before following the (h/c), allowing himself to be led from the bar. Michael and Henrietta stared slack jawed at the scene, looking at each other and then back at the door in disbelief.

Moon Knight and Werewolf by Night headcanons (can be read as romantic or platonic):
They met bc Moon Knight thought Jack was some strange looking jackal that needed to be stopped when he had managed to get out one full moon
They fought for a minute or two (they were pretty evenly matched w the suit’s super healing and strength) but soon found out he was distracted by Stevens batons
Quick game of fetch ensued while the moon boys had a conference and figured out what that thing was (it wasn’t a jackal, that’s for sure) and what to do now
They got him home safe and stayed the night to make sure he stayed there. In the morning, Jack was very startled to have some mummy man thing in his house but they explained everything
Now they hang out
Jack runs hot and the system runs cold so if they’re ever sharing a bed for whatever reason, it works out pretty well. Jack’s kicked all the covers off and is starfished out while the boys on the other side of the bed have just pulled all the blankets and cacooned up
Marc/Jake and Jack have conversations in Spanish. Steven feels left out and has put it on his list of languages to learn… after he finishes French, Copic, and Arabic
Jack likes darker coffee. Maybe not quite black but he does not put a lot of sweetener is in it. Moon Knight likes tea or coffee w a lot of sugar in it
If they’re doing some lovely parallel play, both just existing in the same space but doing seperate things, Marc will occasionally sneak a glance over and give a little “awooo!” Jack never responds but always looks up instantly. When Marc starts laughing, he gets all mad, telling him to stop doing that. Marc thinks it’s the funniest thing so he never stops. This cycle happens regularly wo fail
Jake was originally the wariest of Jack and kept quite a distance for a while, studying him and trying to figure him out. Jack never pushed him and just being friendly and going about his business like usual. Ultimately, Jake decided he was pretty cool and now they’re like peas in a pod
Jack always spins in a circle before sitting down. He doesn’t realize he does it tho. In his mind, he’s making sure he’s not forgetting anything he has to stand back up to get, that he’s not sitting on anyones legs/in their personal space, or making sure this is in fact where he’s supposed to sit. The boys notice tho. They bring it up once and he’s so confused abt what they’re talking abt and insists he doesn’t do that. They drop it but have a little smile every time he does it
Jack and Steven have the same music taste, meaning oldies. Jack gave him a record player when he found out he didn’t have one to “listen to them the way they were meant to be listened to.” Now they give each other records pretty regularly
All the boys smell pretty similar to Jack. I mean, it’s the same body, soap, shampoo, and deoederent so that’s to be expected. There are ways to tell them apart (or at least tell who got them ready that morning) tho. Jake’s jacket and gloves smell like cigarettes. Even if they’re not wearing them at the moment, there’s a lingering smell of it. Marc’s hair gel smells like chemicals and he’s always very generous with it so it’s easy to tell when he’s styled them for the day. Steven wears just a touch of cologne that the other two neglect unless they’re going somewhere fancy
They bond over having a part of yourself that you feel like is destructive and have no control over
Jack also has similar methods as Steven’s nightly routine to make sure he doesn’t get out on full moons. They compare notes and what works and what doesn’t

Cosette dynamics with the rest of the BG3 party members, under the cut bc it got long of course heheh
For those that read this I'd also love to hear about other people's Tavs and their dynamics!
Astarion:
FORBIDDEN MAGIC BUDDIES LET'S GO! (they enable each other horribly lol)
But in all seriousness Cosette honestly probably confuses Astarion quite a lot, I imagine he hasn't dealt with her brand of "purity" for a long time.
She keeps accidentally flirting with him, from her perspective in the effort to be kind and friendly towards him, but obviously that's not totally clear to Astarion.
I headcanon that at the party when he's talking about wanting to have "fun" and Cosette straight-up doesn't get it he's hit with a realization akin to "holy shit I can't do this." So nothing romantic is gonna happen between them, unless he makes some move I'm not expecting.
That being said, her kindness, particularly in taking the news he's a vampire spawn in stride (and letting him drink her blood of course), has earned her a soft spot in his heart, as loathe as he would be to admit it.
Cosette thinks Astarion is funny and exciting (in both his personality and circumstances) but also feels bad for him since he's clearly shown he's traumatized by his years as a spawn. However she's also fascinated by the logistics of vampires, of course.
Gale:
Oh you know they're on the exact same wavelength (weavelength?) when it comes to love of magic and knowledge. They hit it off instantly.
I like to think Gale was enamored with Cosette pretty early on, admiring her optimism, kindness, and passion. I imagine he was really surprised to have the first person he met after the nautiloid be just as enthusiastic about magic as he is.
I have a headcanon about him marveling at her when they find the secret lab of the "healer" in the blighted village, like he's never seen a person get so starry-eyed at a dusty, kinda gross basement filled with alchemy implements and he finds it incredibly endearing. I might write about it when I have a better grasp of his personality heheh
For Cosette, she thought of Gale as a friend right away, but her moment of truly falling for him was during the experiencing-the-Weave scene. It was magical in all senses of the word for her and it kinda hit her that "oh, he gets me" which cannot be said for the majority of people.
I do think Gale's currently a little pained with Cosette because he told her his whole story, including sharing his memory of the trauma, and then she turned around and proceeded to open a tome full of forbidden knowledge without care for the consequences oops lol. So I'll at least headcanon that he'll be trying to stop Cosette from falling down that slippery slope in the future.
Karlach:
Karlach's the newest companion for me so I don't know much about her yet (other than I love her) and therefore this'll be shorter, BUT
If it weren't for Gale and Wyll being there I do think a romance could have been possible for her and Cosette, but now not so much unless something surprising happens in-game.
As it stands I'm predicting a more sisterly relationship, with Karlach looking out for Cosette (not that nobody else does but I feel it'll be particularly strong with Karlach).
Cosette is low-key relieved to have someone even close to as cheerful as she is in the party honestly. She's so pleased to be able to have upbeat conversations with Karlach, even if they're not about magic or scholarly topics.
She's fascinated with Karlach's infernal engine though, of course, and is trying to learn all she can about it.
Cosette WILL give Karlach that hug she mentioned wanting if it's the last thing she does ;_;
Lae'zel:*
Really weirdly, Lae'zel likes Cosette quite a bit? Mostly because Cosette is respectful of her culture and allows Lae'zel to speak whenever they interact with other githyanki.
Cosette was a bit scared of Lae'zel at first but tried to keep a positive attitude. She was about to give up on becoming true friends with Lae'zel until she let slip that she's a scholar as much as she is a warrior, and then Cosette got REAL excited because they finally had something to bond over.
Cosette really wants to learn everything she can about githyanki culture so she takes any opportunity to ask Lae'zel about it, which Lae'zel sometimes acts like she thinks is annoying but I think secretly likes it heheh.
Shadowheart:*
I imagine Shadowheart is pretty exasperated with how blatantly naive Cosette tends to be but the fact that she was so chill with her worshipping Shar is incredibly important to her.
I think Shadowheart's kind of in the gang of "I'm gonna roll my eyes at a lot of stuff you do but I will protect you with my fucking life" along with Astarion and Lae'zel lmao
Cosette is taken aback sometimes with how prickly and sassy Shadowheart can get and worries that she doesn't like her much, but then Shadowheart will turn around and say that Cosette is a friend the likes of which she's never had before. So Cosette has come to the conclusion that Shadowheart doesn't mean a lot of the things she says when she's being especially sharp with her words. Bit of a "ur a softie aren't u shadowheart" meme lol
Wyll:
They're both warlocks and both from nobility so there's an inherent connection there.
Since they're both nobles, Cosette desperately wants to see him dance, especially if it's with her!
Wyll was surprised to learn how readily trusting Cosette is with higher magical beings (hags, devils, etc) so I imagine he had to readjust his initial view of her.
He does see that her heart is ultimately in the right place and there's something alluring about her innocence and cheer, but he's worried about her (probably rightly so lol). He's trying his best to steer her in what he believes is the right direction.
On Cosette's part, Wyll kinda embodies a childhood fantasy of a romance with a dashing hero (with a dark side, even!), so she does have a little crush on him.
Gale is currently winning in the romance department for Cosette but there's a little something going on with her and Wyll; we'll see where it goes!
*Extra notes on Lae'zel and Shadowheart:
I think these three make an interesting trio because I get the sense that both Lae'zel and Shadowheart are inexperienced in a lot of areas and are desperately trying to hide it. I know less about Shadowheart's whole backstory and whatnot than Lae'zel's so take it with a grain of salt, but if I'm right Cosette makes a neat foil to both of them bc she too is inexperienced but doesn't try to necessarily hide it. She's not trying to come off as intimidating, unlike the both of them -- Lae'zel with strength and aggression, Shadowheart with wit and disdain.
And then there's Lae'zel and Shadowheart's rivalry with each other, all the while warming up to Cosette, and Cosette being their mediator.
Also something to be said about all three of them being naive in different ways; Lae'zel with her (up until a certain point) unquestioning faith in Vlaakith, I'm guessing something is gonna come to light with Shadowheart and her faith in Shar, and then Cosette is just out here trusting everyone she meets at face value.
