the new year is quickly approaching for me (2 hours !) and i have a little something to share . .

thank you all for making the past 2 years so awesome ! i've been writing on this account since later 2021 - early 2022 and it was made possible with your support !!! i appreciate the patience when it came to my loss of motivation , and i appreciate everyone for sticking around :]

writing is something i'm still very passionate about, but i must admit that my self insert fanfictions are not the kind of writing i feel motivated to do anymore . with this new year, i want to focus more on art and my original characters, who i do plan to write for ! with that, i drop the bad news that i will go on an indefinite hiatus on this blog . fear not - for i will still be active on my art blog ! if you enjoy what i create and want to see me draw, you can follow me there ! (medusaez)

to those who do not intend on following that account, i'm still thankful for your support and thank you once again for being there to read my self insert fics ~

and happy new years !

more nights like this, an azul ashengrotto x reader birthday special

the grand opening fell on such a perfect date - the day itself felt like a perfect present.

as light filled the building and illuminated the dark evening outside, the main dining room filled with polite laughter gentle conversation. upstairs, in a room reserved for a very special resident, the said residents looked through a cracked mirror. light filled their otherwise dead, scarred eyes as they fixed the top hat upon their head.

the mirror showed a reflection of a well-cleaned-up ghost, wearing a nice dress shirt as well as a bow tie, jacket, and top hat with an equally beautiful bow. a smile crept onto their face as the business man stood behind them. "you look dazzling, i'm glad we were able to salvage your old clothes for today; they look lovely."

"you're too kind, ashengrotto! though, i believe it's time to greet the guests now, no?" they turned in their chair to face azul. azul nodded with a charming smile. "of course, whenever you are ready. let me gather the guest's attention for you."

✦

azul took a spoon to a glass and tapped it a few times. a melodic tune rang throughout the room and shushed the crowd. all of their attention was redirected to the man who happened to be dressed in a fine white suit; not his usual dorm uniform. "tonight is a special night."

the crowd let out a polite clap. "tonight is the grand opening of our new mostro lounge building, but also it is the date of a special someone's birth." the crowd stayed silent in confusion - who is he talking about? "i'd like to welcome our guest of honor, the prefect of the dorm that was here previously, and a dear friend of mine. [first name] [last name]!"

as their name was called, the prefect came floating down the stairs as if they were a bride coming down the isle. the similarities between the two would be the veil covering both the bride and the prefect's face. the prefect was still nervous with showing their features so a veil would provide that comfort yet keep a formal appearance. their eyes scanned the crowd, seeing so many new faces was refreshing and exciting.

what more could they want? all the prefect had ever wanted was company in the once lonely abandoned building, but now they wouldn't have to be alone anymore. they had azul, when he was on the clock in the new building, but also customers and staff. those silly eel twins as well! the prefect couldn't contain their excitement as they joined azul's side.

"oh, joyous! hello, everyone! i'm the prefect, call me whatever you'd like!" they beamed as the attention was drawn to them. "my birthday wish is that all of you continue to support ashengrotto! tonight is such a lovely night, and i'm so grateful for your company! please, enjoy tonight and many nights to come!" they waved to everyone and recieved a round of applause.

the applause eased into small talk that strecthed for an hour or so as the prefect made rounds, talking to many different tables. at the last table, an empty one, azul had sat down a large cake. "i had this cake baked for you specifically by an upperclassman friend of mine; i hope you find it satisfactory." azul stated as he lit the candles with his magic pen.

the prefect sat down in front of the cake as many customers stood around; a warmth filled the prefect's body. the feeling of friendship and love filled their senses as they suppressed an excited shutter. leaning in as the crowd sang a song, the prefect's eyes closed as they moved the veil from their face and blew the candles out. "what'd you wish for?" one giddy customer asked.

"i wished for many more nights like this."

it is my 15th birthday today! i made a part two (kinda) of my halloween post because i liked the idea of prefect / reader being a ghost!! this was written to be short and sweet but i really hope you all liked it anyways ~ ! i'm so grateful for you all, all of my followers are such cuties! i love you all and i'm happy for 840+ followers (^_-)≡☆ i can't wait for another year of posting fanfics for you guys ~

[aquz]

depression and school are still kicking my ass but my birthday is next weekend and i am working on a little special for it ~ maybe i'll even finish a request or two ! no, i didn't forget about them, i've just had intense writers (and art) block. . . speaking of art. . . if i advertised my art account(s) here, would y'all check it out or do you not care (genuinely) ! i've been drawing for longer than i've been writing so i'm pretty into art as well ~

ramshackle's ghostly host, an azul ashengrotto x reader halloween special

"ah, although the dorm is said to be in abysmal state, it's actually just fine, no? nothing a little renovation cannot fix." an eel with a hand resting on his chest turned to the shortest man in the group. said man, azul ashengrotto, nodded in agreement as he wiped dust off of a nearby shelf. "of course it's an easy fix, and we have the money... such a small price to pay for something so promising. i cannot wait to hear back from the headmage."

another eel, with hands folded behind his head, carelessly stomped on a loose floorboard which sent it tumbling down through the air and landing on the ground beneath it, on the first floor. "that's a hazard. i don't see why you'd need to bring us on such a dangerous viewing of a dilapidated dorm. it's your idea to buy it, so why don't YOU view it alone?" floyd leech groaned, dramatically rolling his eyes. his twin, jade leech, removed the hand from his chest and shook the doorknob of a jammed door nearby. the door squeaked and with a teeter, it fell backwards and a layer of dust suspended itself in the air.

"oh, he is right. even if renovations could be made, what about the reputation of the place? haven't you heard of the horrors and bad luck this building holds?" jade asked. "i'd say you're just saying that because floyd said something opposing me. everything will be alright, i have connections." azul shook his head with a smile.

his eyes carefully scanning the once lively but now dust ridden dorm building, he couldn't help but burst into a smile. ah, his business was expanding! with that, he would need a second, bigger office, no? well, he might as well start examining the rooms to see which would fit the bill. let's see. . . he needs enough space for a vault room to hold his contracts, desk room, an area for many file cabinets. . . he would need some time to think this over.

azul proceeded into the room with the now busted down door, being careful as to not step on the door itself. glancing around, he could get a good scope of the size and a mental image of where he would put everything. ah, yes, the idea of a new office layout was indeed refreshing. as he studied the size of the room, he failed to miss footsteps that faded off into quietness.

. . . and with everything thought out, azul sighed out his feelings of excitement. with a quick turn, he was about to address the twins and thank them for their silence as he pondered, but nobody was there except for the sound of a picture frame falling and crashing to the ground. his heart rate spiked before immediately attempting to slow down, leaving a dull pain in his chest as he picked up the frame and the glass surrounding it. "ah, floyd? jade?" he called out as he dumped the handful of glass onto the nearby table. no response. azul cocked an eyebrow while his head turned to the window with whistling wind rushing through the cracks.

with a few strides, he could see the two clearly leaving the premises, causing the silver-haired man to groan. of course they left him. "oh, you both," he sighed and turned back to the door. although, there was an unsettling feeling. . . maybe it was because he was alone? or maybe he wasn't alone at all? the man swallowed his fear and began to walk towards the doorway, before a gust of wind strong enough to shake the unsettled house closed the door that had suddenly appeared back in place. the lock immediately clicked shut as azul fell into the door and tried to open it. was he always this wimpy?

"hey, hey, hey!" azul squealed to himself as he shook the door's knob, before it promptly fell into his shaking hand. he raised it to his face to get a better look before swallowing hard; what happened just now? it was silent if he ignored the wind whistling. . .

CRASH

azul whipped around, expecting floyd to have scaled the building and somehow broken in to save him, but instead there was a ghostly figure decked out in ragged clothes and a large hat sat atop their head. azul's eyes were blown wide when hos gaze dropped to their face; a twisted and charred mess of burnt flesh and exposed muscle. although their eyes were visible, they were so light you could barely see them; noticeably scarred. azul's breath hitched as the flights flickered off and the curtains, charred yet thick, swung over the windows to completely darken the room.

"i. . ." came a ghastly mumblr and azul couldn't tell if this throat hurt from all the dust or from a scream he had no recollection of screaming. digging his hand into the pocket of his blazer, he whipped out his magic pen and cast a spell that set the pen's tip ablaze, to act as a torch. the light reflected off all surfaces as caged the ghost in its warm glow. the ghost seemed to shrink away into the darkness once more, taking their hat off and using it to cover their face. "eek, nooo! please!" the voice meekly whined.

azul felt the raging fear die a little. this was what he was up against? a shy ghost. if he wasn't just screaming a minute ago, he would've scoffed. "you. . . locked me in here! i demand you let me out now, for i am -" he paused momentarily to gather his threat. "nooo! i'm not wanting to hurt you! i am the old prefect of this building, and i'm pleased to have a new visitor!"

azul's face twisted with confusion; then a sudden realization. "oh, that's right. there is still somebody. . . or some ghost. . . occupying this space." azul sighed. "it would be rude of me not to ask for your approval or alert you at the very least, so i shall do it now. i will be rennovating this property to branch out my business. so, if you plan on hurting me, i'll have you know that the renovation team will find my corpse if no-one else. . . !"

the prefect shook their head rapidly. "oh, nonono! no! i will not hurt you! i just. . . wanted to know why a living visitor has stopped by." the ghost lowered their hat. "if that's the case, you may use this decrepit dorm to your advantage! i would love this place of tragedy and forgotten memories to become lively once more!"

the ghost swayed lightly as the lights flickered back on. the fire in azul's pen went out as he straightened himself up and looked the ghost in their scarred eyes. "i am unable to leave this property, so i'm sorry to say that i cannot leave. i can cover my face, maybe? i do not want to scare off customers!" the ghost's insecurity struck a heartstring of azul's and almost made him feel bad for being scared. "oh, that will not be necessary, dear. if you don't mind me asking, what happened to this place? why is it forgotten as of now?"

"this dorm has been abandoned for many years due to a fire that broke out. maybe of the dorm members had moved out into other dorms, for their rooms could not be salvaged. the building was in such tough shape it was supposed to be demolished, but it's a historical building. it dates back to longer than i've occupied it, but i would assume you know that. i was caught in the fire and charred to ash, being the prefect, i tried to save it. . . to no avail. " the ghost bowed their head and backed more into the corner. azul huffed. "well, i suppose that is a sad death story, but all deaths are sad, no?"

azul took a step towards the ghost. "my apologies for not doing my research before staking my claim on this building. rest assured i will breath new life into the place, and nothing such as that tragedy will ever happen again. you just have to put your trust in me... mx...?" the ghost wavered and stuck a timid hand out. "mx. [last name]." azul took their ghostly hand and nodded his head in place of a proper hand shake. "and the pleasure. . . is mind, ashengrotto."

before azul knew it, the ghost titled '[last name], former prefect of the now abandoned dormitory building' had disappeared into the thin air and the door rattled open. azul quirked an eyebrow, "since when was the door fixed. . . ?" to which he heard an airy giggle, presumably the prefect letting him know that they did it. azul nodded and began his way back down the steps. what an interesting ghost; the previous prefect who had died in an uncontrolled fire. . . and as frightening as they look, they're as shy as if they were living. . .

what an exciting business venture this will be.

just a silly special for my absolute favorite holiday ~ with the man of the hour; AZUL ASHENGROTTO! (the crowd goes wild!!!!) this halloween feels exciting to me, i'm going dressed up as len kagamine while my best friend goes as rin kagamine ! i hope you enjoyed my (second halloween special of azul in a haunted building) short fic and this is enough to sate the hunger of my followers ~ ! seriously though? sorry for the lack of uploads, school has me pretty busy and i really did intend to post more this month but i guess that just wasnt happening? anyways, have a safe yet super spooky halloween and read this dumpster fire of a rushed short fic from last year if you want to ~ bye bye !

babysitter . . . # four

☆ ortho has a temporarily new babysitter and idia has to walk him there every morning before school. idia isn't a fan of clichés but... who knew the babysitter was so cute?

☆ gender neutral reader, reader is kind of a shut-in yet is good with kids, strangers to crushes with idia shroud featuring ortho! magicless au!

gently, idia closed the door to the small room at the very end of the upstairs hallway. ortho stood in front of him, a deadpan look displayed on his face. "okay, the security system is up-to-date. remember what i said: keep the door locked, absolutely do not answer it, don't touch anything on my computer that isn't a children's game because you might end up scarring yourself, and i'll be home as soon as possible."

idia laid down some common ground rules, for ortho was to be left home alone for a few hours. unfortunately, ortho had to be left home alone thanks to the school exam that both idia and (name) had to take. idia remembered the conversation from last night and how nervous he felt when he realized ortho would be home alone for a while.

(name) [6:40 pm]

god damn it (ﾒ` ﾛ ´) okay so erm. i have to show up to school IN PERSON tomorrow. . .

idia [6:40 pm]

LMAO HOW DOES IT FEEL

wait

what about ortho

(name) [6:42 pm]

augh you're right ... maybe he can stay home alone for a bit? i've been staying home alone quite often since i was young and i think i've turned out fine ^_^

idia [6:44 pm]

BUT we live in a big house and we are a well known family... what if someone tries to break in??

(name) [6:45 pm]

im sure nobody wants to do that, and if they do, think of the fancy shmancy security set up you have!!! police will be there like... in a second

idia [6:50 pm]

im going to assume ortho told you about that because i have no recollection of telling you about the security set up myself. i think i should be more worried about you breaking in rather than anyone else (⊙_⊙)

there was no time to be worried, though; idia had a solid 5 minutes before he absolutely HAD to leave. ortho smiled, "it's okay, idia! i'll be extra careful! i won't go outside, i won't eat your candy and i'll even clean my room!" idia patted the younger boy's head. "good, i've really got to go now... don't forget to call me if you need anything. if you can't reach the phone on the counter, you can use my tablet to contact (name)."

ortho nodded and waved a goodbye to his brother, who finally made his way downstairs and out the door with a grimace on his face. it's too early to have a stomachache; stress from ortho and the exam clashing together as if they were fighting for dominance in his stomach, which made him feel worse. he could probably throw up right about now.

idia arrived just in time for the bell to ring and signal the start of classes. idia looked around the room at all the other students, sitting or hanging around their seats while they waited for the instructor. idia's eyes glanced towards his own seat - unofficially but he had been sitting there for so long that it was automatically his - to find someone already sitting there. idia's face lit up with recognition as he began to make his way up the raised seats to the very top; in the corner was idia's occupied seat. "hey... um, i sit here." idia chortled at his own joke.

idia's poor attempt at "do-i-know-you" humor startled the babysitter. (name) looked up with wide eyes, before sighing out in relief. "is it really? sorry about that; your seat was the only open one that's not surrounded by people i don't know..." idia shrugged at their statement. "it's okay, i get that. i sit all the way up here, in the corner, because i'm away from most people."

they nodded in response as they watched idia sit down in the empty seat beside them. as soon as he touched the chair, the teacher walked into the room. "class, sit down and listen up; today is the day of the last practice exam. i will divide you all into groups and send you where you belong."

the class erupted into whispers, hoping to he grouped with their friends. as the teacher began listing off names and groups, idia tuned out. it was quite loud for him and being in public during such a nerve-wracking day really set him off.

"...., .....,. To start group b, shroud and (last name). ....., .....," idia was not able to catch his last name; luckily the cutie in his seat did. whipping their head over to the anxious man, they smiled brightly. "hey, did you get that? we are in the same group! they quietly exclaimed to idia, who was just snapped out of his own head.

"....yay..." he quietly hummed, looking down at his hands, which fiddled with his hoodie. (name) deadpanned, "oh? are you not excited about that? huh, and i thought we had something special..." they dramatically sighed which made idia shake his head. "nonono - you just... we can even do anything together because we are taking practice exams. it's almost like it'll make no difference if you're there or not..." he replied.

before the babysitter could response, someone sitting in the row in front of the two whipped around, pressing a firm finger to her lips as she shushed both the teenagers behind her. she shook her head before turning back around. (name) and idia looked at each other immediately after she turned back around and started to giggle quietly among themselves.

the bell rung, signaling the end of the torturous practice exam. idia sighed and let the disgustingly stressful feelings out of his lungs. standing up quickly, he began packing up. he looked to where (name) were assigned to sit, two rows ahead of him, and watched as they did the same. he was about to meet them at their desk to walk home together . . . until they began to leave and the crowd of students followed behind them. thay put a physical barrier between idia and (name)... there was no way he could catch up now.

idia waited until the horde of students all left to turn in his exam and to leave the room. he walked down the hallway, a sudden sadness in his step. 'you didn't wait for me' he sulked in his head, gripping harder onto his backpack strap. as he pushed through the school doors to reach the outside, he felt a looming presence behind him; one that was not sadness.

he slowly looked behind himself and there they were - holding two energy drinks. "idia~ sorry for not waiting. the students are as strong as elephants, i couldn't stop walking or else i would've gotten pushed and trampled... i bought you a little something!" (name) held their hand out, passing an energy drink to idia.

"o-oh. no, it's fine. totally cool. i also really need to make it home, ortho is still there alone..." idia sighed and began the slowest brisk pace. to be fair, he would probably keel over the second he reached an increased heart rate, so at least he was looking out for himself. (name) nodded. "yeah, that's smart..."

idia looked down as he walked, the other teenager just a few steps behind him. "s-so, how was the exam?" idia muttered out, pulling his phone out and checking for any calls or messages. "painfully long, i wanted to ask you something but i forgot... if only i sat next to you ... could've passed you a note."

"ah, yeah... as soon as i get home and see ortho, i can get on (game)... you can join me if you want..." idia suggested, finally looking up from his phone to see (name), who had now began walking beside him. "oh yeah? that'd be cool!"

small talk filled the silence between the two as they walked home in the warm afternoon. as soon as idia got home, of course after dropping (name) off at their house, he dropped everything. rushing around to find ortho was probably the fastest idia has ever moved in his life, and he found ortho napping on the couch as some cartoon played on the tv.

idia sighed with relief and pulled out his phone once more. before he could log onto (game), he had to listen to his favorite artist's new single. his headphones were in his backpack, which he didn't remember putting in there instead of around his neck, but that was a trivial detail. idia went back to where he threw his bag and opened it up ... to find an extra energy drink.

'to idia,

you can have this drink too. i don't drink this kind... oh also, wanna hang out tomorrow? i'm free and you should be as well... it's okay if you can't, but i'd love too. lmk your response, ids ! ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ'

the sticky note read, making idia cock an eyebrow. hangout tomorrow... sounds fun... WAIT? never once has idia shroud THOUGHT THAT A HANG OUT SOUNDED FUN. were these even his own thoughts!?

idia short circuited for a bit before smiling and grabbing his headphones, setting the drink with the note on a nearby table. he pulled out his phone, plugging in his headphones while he had it, and typed a response back to the note's author.

idia [2:55 pm]

'sticky note on a drink? how cliché lol... but sure. let's hang out tomorrow.'

authors note? god damn this took so much longer than it should've... that's okay though!! it's done now!! (watch me disappear for another month) school has taken a lot of my energy and time and effort but we UP now!!! i'm excited to wrap this story up ... (5 chapters left. Aughhhh.) because i wanna write a new one about the 1920's (VERY INTO THAT DECADE AS RECENTLY.)

Hey, I saw a post that said you're starting high school next week (not sure when it was though). I just finished my first week of high school and I wanted to let you know that, at least for me, it's mostly syllabuses and icebreakers. They go pretty easy on the assignments at first, but I expect it to kick up by the third week. Have a great year!

HIII !! i finished my first week last friday, it was super chill for the most part, other than my composition and literature teacher assigning us a 500 word essay?! it was fairly easy but DANG... but tomorrow is the end of my second week and i already have an algebra test as well as a spanish test but i'm confident in both!!
