ivantill week day 6 - crossover

alien stage x slow damage

disclaimers:

- Luka might be the Taku in this universe but their relationship isn’t romantic by any means here!!,

- mentions of cutting someone up and blood etc. + self-harm, if you read the vn expect pretty much the same stuff lol,

- Ivan is the Fraise of this universe,

- changed the “Fraise drugged Towa” situation to Till fainting from too much alcohol.

Every resident of ANAKT knew this mysterious artist, who went by “Unknown”. Every work that they created was a masterpiece. 

They were famous for their abstract paintings that would show one’s true feelings, nobody knew how they picked out their next candidates. Their identity was also pretty much a secret, that’s where their nickname probably came from.

Who would guess that the respected Unknown was some guy working as a receptionist at the doctor’s office? Till’s life was composed of smoking, drinking 

some booze and maybe doing something productive once in a while. 

He mostly worked night shifts, the day one’s were too tiring for him. The sun shined too brightly for him to step out from his cave (room). 

There were usually a few more employees around, but in the night the backdoor had more people coming through it - like yakuza and such, everything that wasn’t legal happened in the night, the doctors would take care of the guests themselves so Till usually didn’t have to do anything.

He freeloaded on one of his friends, Luka. He had a spare room in the basement.

 Luka picked up Till from the streets a long time ago, and decided to raise the kid. ANAKT wasn’t a place free of crime, it happened much more often there than in the mainland. The police never cared anyways, if they got enough money they could keep their mouths shut.

“You received flowers, Till.” Luka said while looking at the card attached to the bouquet. “The card has something written on it too, it’s probably an address.”

“Again? What’s up with all that stuff recently… When will that person give up?” Till said while looking curious.

“I have no idea. If we get any more bouquets, we can start growing some sort of forest here.” 

“I should probably head there, my admirer is pretty ambitious it seems.”

Luka nodded and then went back to doing whatever he was doing previously, surprisingly he was liked by most people in ANAKT - with a few enemies of course, who wouldn’t have them.

—

‘So the address is the flower shop here. ’ Till thought while looking at the building in front of him. The shop was located in the middle of the shopping district, a good business location for sure. The name of it was “Sorrow”, pretty unfitting for a flower shop in Till’s opinion.

There were some rumors that the shop had hired a handsome part timer not too long ago, he had black hair and eyes that reflected the universe in them. People tend to over exaggerate a lot, so he didn’t expect much.

—

There was a guy reorganizing flowers next to the exit, with care that was even obvious to someone like Till.

“Welcome to the store!” He said, then turned around and blushed. It was now obvious that he was the one that sent the flowers, no normal person would react like that.

“Were you the one that sent the bouquet earlier?” Till said while he gave the card to the employee. “Forget I even asked, it’s obvious.”

“Ah yes, that was me. I’m sorry it’s a bit awkward to be discovered this early… Am I really that obvious?”

“Yeah, and what do you mean early? You sent me more than 10 of those. That’s a lot.”

“I guess I went a little overboard…”

“..What do you mean by little?”

—-

They somehow ended up in a bar, Till started scolding Ivan (that was the employees name)  in the shop and it got a lot more awkward than it was, so some drinks would definitely lift it up,  at least that was what Till thought - who has no idea how socializing works.

“I’ve been looking at this site a lot recently, and this artwork really piqued my interest.” Ivan said while showing a picture on his phone to Till. “At first glance it looks like a fresh self harm wound but if you look into it those are flowers.”

“You know a lot about flowers, huh?” Till said while he looked directly into Ivan’s eyes.

“I guess so.. I work in a flower shop for some reason. It must’ve been pretty natural to learn.”

“Good point. Now let’s order some more alcohol.” Till said while waving at the barman, which was Hyuna. Her bar was pretty famous. 

—

“Are you okay?” Ivan asked, looking genuinely concerned.

“Probably not.” Till replied “If I faint you can leave me here.”

—

‘An unfamiliar roof, huh. I can feel something stinging on my body.’ Till thought.

There was a scar on his chest, a pretty big one to add. It was bandaged, so there wasn’t anything to really worry about. He started looking at all the flowers scattered around the room, it was pretty messy here.

“I’m sorry for the mess… I didn’t have time to clean up.”

“It’s alright, my room isn’t clean either.” Till tried to cheer up Ivan. “But do you know why there’s a big scar on my chest?”

“You fell into the traffic when I guided you here.” Ivan was looking visibly nervous. 

“You know that’s not possible, right?” Till pointed at a sharp object across the room. “I don’t think that would be covered in blood either, what are your real motives?”

Ivan started shaking and started saying something. “Scars.. they look beautiful. On you especially, I love to see how the blood pours out from them.”

TIll started unwrapping the bandage around his chest. “C’mon. Pick up that knife and cut me up.”

“Are you… sure?”

“I am.”

Ivan picked up the knife and started placing cuts gently, but Till interrupted him.

“No need to be afraid.” He placed Ivans hand with the knife on his back and started cutting it fastly.

—

“You made that artwork you showed me before, right?” Till asked, all in blood now.

“Yeah, was it that easy to notice?” Ivan responded, still out of breath because of what happened earlier.

“The way you used me as a canvas was similar to how that piece looked, so I assumed.”

“You look beautiful… Truly.” Ivan said as he caressed Till’s wounds. “Can I put a flower in them?”

—

One of Ivan’s desires was to get painted by Unknown, something that was unachievable for most. He told Till that he approached him because he suspected something at first, but then he got genuinely interested.

As always, Till brought a person’s real self out to paint them. When he returned home he started painting, he wouldn’t stop even for a second. “Have you even eaten anything in the past 2 days?” Luka looked at Till, there was no response. “The Ivan guy left some donuts earlier, I’m gonna put them there. Also, don’t forget to show me the painting that you made.”

ivantill week day 4 - childhood/music

There was a rumor in Anakt Garden that a black haired boy would follow Till everywhere, literally. Everywhere he would go, Ivan would follow. They even would feed each other sometimes, a lot of people would suspect that they were dating.

Till made sure to clean up the rumors, he wouldn’t let them slide. They always somehow returned, he gave up at some point. Ivan didn’t care as much, some said that he was happy with that.

Ivan would also sometimes try to mimic Till when he was playing his guitar, he wanted them to have some shared interests.

Ivan even tried to write a song for Till, but eventually gave up halfway. Till noticed that and went to help the black haired guy, maybe the song they created wasn’t the best but it’ll remain in their memories for a very long time.

Memories are a very powerful thing, they let people who had any value to us stay remembered and cherished.

Till loved to reminisce about these moments, because he couldn’t create any new ones. Ivan was dead now.

ivantill week day 2 & 3 - cool/cute + style swap

Shopping was something Till enjoyed, especially looking for clothing. He managed to bring Ivan along this time, it was a good idea for a date.

“You always dress in ‘a cooler style’” - Ivan pointed out.

“Yeah. I also prefer alternative fashion over those turtlenecks of yours. I lost count of how many you got.”

Ivan smiled. There were probably a lot of them, lots.

—

“Have you found anything?”

“Not yet, this shitty shop doesn’t have much to offer from what I’m seeing.”

“It’s because you’re in the wrong alley, Till.”

“What.”

There was a moment of awkward silence between them, Till quickly walked to the right one and pretended nothing happened, he couldn’t get caught unguarded by Ivan. 

Ivan giggled under his nose, his boyfriend was so adorable.

—

“What do you think about a style swap?” - Ivan asked.

“Tempting.” - Till answered with a coat hanger in his mouth and a few pieces of clothing on his arms. “You can go select some stuff you like too, you don’t have to stand near me the whole time.”

“But~ I enjoy it.” 

Till sighed, was this one of Ivan’s daily shenanigans? Probably.

Afterwards, they selected clothes for each other. It took around 30 mins.

“You look pretty good, I can’t lie that you have a nice face Ivan.” - Till said.

“It’s because you selected this outfit for me, there’s no way it would look bad.”

“?!”

Ivan leaned and kissed Till, while he was still in shock. After a few seconds the gray haired man pushed the other one away gently, just to be hugged again.

“Let me go dumbass, I need to change.”

“Nuh-uh.” Ivan looked at Till with his puppy ears, it was even harder now to resist. Till knew he can’t give in.

“If you let me go we will cuddle home, for an hour.”

Ivan instantly let Till go.

“A promise is a promise.”

—

“I think it looks too plain on me… You somehow manage to pull this off.” - Till said while looking in the mirror.

“So you’re saying I look good?”

“Yeah.”

Ivan’s eyes shined. He wanted to hug Till again but he would break the promise he previously made and wouldn’t get the reward.

ivantill week day 1 - autumn

Halloween was approaching pretty quickly, everyone was so busy now with preparing various decorations and adding the last touches to their costumes. The holiday was a big thing here, even for the adults.

Till’s costume of choice was something wolf styled, it had rock elements too. A ripped shirt and a cross necklace with various accessories on it. Ivan went for a vampire one, with a black chiffon shirt with ruffles on it. He didn’t even need to buy fake sharp teeth, the ones he had were enough. 

“Till.. Let’s go trick & treating… I want candy so badly.” - Ivan started whining.

The other man sighed, but he agreed.

 “Fine, we have to put those costumes we got into use anyways.”

Contrary to Till’s expectations doing this “childish” thing was pretty fun, who could’ve thought that it would be so enjoyable? Ivans company also didn’t bother him much.

Maybe hanging out with him wasn’t so bad.

They made pastry later, and ate some candy they managed to collect.
