When he explains that there was no one else around, Flora's eyes widen as she glances around the area. It was true that the area was vacant but Flora just figured the other person ran off instead of trying to save her - they seemed like they were in a rush. So it was strange to her that he said he hadn't seen anyone else around and the fact he said he'd been watching the fish for a while - she didn't recognize him before she fell in. Looking back up at him, she opens her mouth to speak.

"A-Are you sure no one else was here?" It all had happened so fast before she knew it, but surely she wasn't that disoriented to get the details wrong. But after he mentions where she was staying, she nods her head, "I-I was visiting for a nearby festival and decided to come to the temple. I wanted to see everything this town had to offer..."

Clutching at the jacket with her hand, she carefully pulls herself up with the other on trembling legs. Hopefully, she'd have enough strength to get back. Flashing him a weak smile, she decides to introduce herself, as well.

"T-Thank you for saving me, Mister Yoshitsugu. My name is Flora Alexandria."

daydreamiist​:

Strong arms wrap around her frail body and she is finally pulled out of the water. Her lungs burn as air reaches them again but the persons voice draws her back out of her shocked state. Harsh coughs wreck her whole body as her fists cling to his clothes. Slowly she starts to calm down with the realization that she is okay and the comfort from the person who saved her. Blue orbs crack open as she looks up at him, mouth opening to speak but her voice is rough from having been under the water.

“T-Thank you.. I-I was knocked into the water when someone ran by. I don’t know if they noticed.” Her wet clothes cling to her skin and the air around her sends a shiver down her spine. The water was cool so the air makes her skin feel like pinpricks. Finally her eyes properly adjust as she looks up at his face then she looks down at the uniform he is wearing.

“A-Are you a soldier? I’m so sorry for getting you wet.” She moves a little to try and not get anymore water on him but not enough to knock her over since she is still weak from nearly drowning.

Gently rubbing her back as she finishing spitting out the water in her mouth, he took off his mildly damp military jacket and draped it over her with a faint smile. He had no idea how to reassure her, and her clothes were strange to him. It resembled nothing Otani had ever seen before. 

“No need to apologize, but there is no one else here…” Otani murmured, looking at the empty temple. As far as he could remember, no one ran by the pond. “I’ve been watching the fish for a while now, I would hope I would have noticed.” 

Standing up, he held out his hand to offer her assistance. As confused as he felt, he imagined she likely had it worse. 

“Are you a foreigner, miss? Is there somewhere you’re staying?”

Given her situation, he couldn’t very well leave her on her own. He felt obligated to at least walk her back to her residence or buy her some tea to warm her up. Only then did it dawn on him that he failed to introduce himself. Not wanting to be rude, he decided to give her his name and official confirmation that yes, he was a soldier.

“My name is Otani Yoshitsugu, I am a soldier in the Imperial Army’s 1st Division.”

svt fic recs (mostly nc-17; jeongcheol, minwon, seokgyu, wonchan + other)

JEONGCHEOL

"uncomplicated". college!au. oneshot, 3.5k. r.

He doesn't lean into it, to the gravity that pulls himself bodily to Seungcheol. He doesn't have the excuse of alcohol anymore, and he has to go back to how they were before the high of hormones and lust. Jeonghan just keeping an arm's length away. Close enough to reach, but still an infinity away.

"promise of the solstice". royalty!au: knight!sc, prince!jh. oneshot, 43k. pg-13.

New friends, joyous festivities, and blossoming love is the nature of the Winter Solstice. It would be better, Jeonghan thinks, without the attempt on Prince Minghao's life.

"amorem et circenses". historical!au, omegaverse: alpha gladiator!sc, omega prince!jh. 3 chapters, 68k. nc-17. ♡

Jeonghan, heir to the Roman Empire, is conquered too. By a gladiator, Seungcheol, whom he's not supposed to love, for the sake of Rome.

"lean on me". college!au. 8 chapters, 73k. nc-17.

“Choi Seungcheol.” The guy introduces himself, holding his hand out for Jeonghan to take it. It is a friendly and completely non-provoking gesture. Jeonghan doesn’t take it.

“Don’t I also get a name?” Seungcheol asks curiously as Jeonghan reaches for the door handle. Jeonghan pauses, throwing a mischievous grin in Seungcheol’s direction.

“No.”

MINWON

"everybody wants a taste (that's why)". oneshot, 2.5k. nc-17.

Wonwoo gets jealous and Mingyu tries to make it up to him.

"professor jeon and the room of requirement". hogwarts!au. oneshot, 3k. nc-17.

professor jeon and his favorite quidditch star in the room of requirement.

"nevergreen". au. oneshot, 10k. nc-17.

Wonwoo doesn’t expect to run into Kim Mingyu in the buffet line during the dinner break at the Fashion and Luxury Brand Financial Management Conference—but it happens.

"can i get "i told you so" in the chat?". au: streamer!ww, volleyball player!mg. 12 chapters, 98.5k. pg-13. ♡♡

“Repeat that one more time, but slower,” Chan suggests.

“An interview came out with Kim Mingyu, the ace hitter of the Olympic men’s volleyball team,” Seungkwan says slowly. “And he’s a fan of Wonwoo hyung. Like, a huge fan.”

↳ "closer, closer, even closer". au: streamer!ww, volleyball player!mg. oneshot, 6k. nc-17.

When you're dating Kim Mingyu, of all people, it's only natural to yearn for him a little. Especially when he's been in Japan for a week and Wonwoo only gets to see him on TV and there's a big Mingyu-sized hole in the apartment. Right?

So, anyway. Wonwoo yearns.

SEOKGYU

"tell me, we belong together". omegaverse: beta!dk, alpha!mg. oneshot, 11k. nc-17.

Omega and Alpha noses singe with the acrid scent of a possessive, pissed-off Kim Mingyu. In his arms, Seokmin rests, Beta senses none-the-wiser.

"뺏긴 my heart, that boys a killer". oneshot, 16k. pg-13.

Like the jagged edges of a knife. Like the unexpected sharp prick of pain from a small thorn hidden beneath beautiful flower petals. It draws you in, the vibrancy in its colors, the slightly musky scent, swaying freely in the open field. Only hidden beneath can be the sticky sap sticking you together or the thorns pushing you away.

Mingyu’s heart threads itself in thorns.

WONCHAN

"treat me like dinner". au. oneshot, 2k. nc-17.

A dopey satisfied look crosses Wonwoo’s face before sharpening into something more unreadable when his eyes travel down his body. Chan’s breath hitches as the other’s right hand lands on his thigh, his left one squeezing his waist.

“This is new,” Wonwoo hums, twisting the soft fabric of Chan’s circle skirt between his fingers. “I don’t remember seeing you wearing it before.”

"in a frame". au: photographer!ww. oneshot, 9.6k. pg-13.

With every photo Wonwoo takes, Chan finds himself staring into the eye of the lens.

It shouldn’t mean everything, but it does.

OTHER

"waiting in intermission". gyuhao. omegaverse: alpha!mg, omega!mh. oneshot, 2k. nc-17.

Mingyu remembers when he used to ask for it— wanting, aching for the indifference Minghao reeked of. Asked for it until he no longer had to, until Minghao just knew.

"my heart by your side forever". jigyu. omegaverse: alpha!wz, omega!mg. oneshot, 2.6k. pg-13.

mingyu presents. jihoon tries to process this fact in a normal way.

"[baby] i'm just trying to play it cool". wonwoo/dk/dino. college!au. oneshot, 11k. pg-13.

Seokmin makes it his mission to teach his roommate Wonwoo how to flirt.

The plan backfires spectacularly on him.

"find nothing good". seokcheol. fantasy!au: werewolf!sc, hunter!dk. oneshot, 16k. nc-17.

There isn’t an easy answer, no way for Seokmin to explain that yes, he’s attracted to Seungcheol. Yes, he knows Seungcheol is a wolf, a natural born monster that should be eradicated. Seokmin has spent his entire life like this, learning to kill, killing, hands stained black and red and candy blue.

"curse the moon". seoksoon. magic!au: hunter!dk. oneshot, 19k. r.

Darkness is starting to envelope his senses, and he doesn’t know if it’s due to the night getting deeper or to the pain. Stopping in his tracks, he manages to raise his head towards the sky; the branches over his head look like distorted faces, leering at him, reminding him that he’s doomed. There’s a silver smile there, a slice of moon shining a bit of reflected light down on Earth. The snow seems even whiter.

Oliver gives me the vibes of acting all cool collected and nonchalant but secretly obsessed with this one random thing like action figures a comic book series or a childish tv show and no one knows about it except when one day he sees a limited edition of something just his eyes light up his face pulls into the biggest most innocent smile and he lets out the most adorable little gasp when you ask him about it and immediately starts rambling about whatever it is and all you can do is just stare at this 6’3 man fanboying over a kids show with all the surprise and fondness and love in your eyes. Idk I just feel like once you get to really know this man and he really falls in love with you? That he’d let some of that facade down around you. I think it just means that he feels safe to be himself around you. And he doesn’t have that cool playboy image to uphold anymore at least not for a while and certainly not around you yknow? Idk that thought just came into my head and I had to share it with you. How are you btw? How’s uni? Hows the new show going? Also if you don’t mind. I will be ranting about the end of Tokyo Revengers in another ask and how it absolutely destroyed me and left me completely empty inside and just all the feelings because it’s my favorite and comfort manga. If that’s alright? *sends many virtual hugs*

- ✨ anon

✨ (the urge to call you starry or charmer but it’s upto you ♡) , I-

I love this. so much ♡(˃͈ દ ˂͈ ) this man has my heart and I had a dream about him last night

He'd fanboy over the little things so much - it's so adorable. 6'3 defender of japan going out shopping with you to buy figurines, mangas and pointing at the one he wants on the shelf with a smile. And imagine if you share the same passion? And what if it coincides?

I made some groundbreaking discoveries yesterday and many more reasons on why Oliver and I are the perfect couple

So I was curious to see if there was any fanart of him on twitter (cause the artists there are amazing and I found this one pic of tendou with like really short hair and he was fucking AHHh he was hot !! but anyway) I found a thread of discussion on Oliver

Turns out, he hates corn cause it gets stuck between his teeth and I have no words cause even I didn't like corn for that reason... but its alright to eat now ig; he likes shin ramyeon. (Literally stocked the goddamn thing into the cupboard yesterday adbfkjhfbhesff ) and he likes Spicy food!! 🥹

and his manga. *put on glasses* Chi: Chikyū no Undō ni Tsuite.

It is a historical manga and it’s coinciding with astronomy. *is a major of it at uni* I- Oliver is a nerd. He’s a nerd and I love him for it. And I’d like to think that there is a moment where he does engage with you in discussions about it and when you give him that look; that knowing look of ‘I know who you really are’ when he turns an argument into an intellectual one without realizing it. And he just gives you the look back of ‘I know. I’m not stupid. Surprise.’

And once he falls in love with you? playboy season is over and he will be locked.

I absolutely loved this thought and thank you for sharing it with me ଘ(੭ˊᵕˋ)੭ ♡

Cause seriously it fits well with his character and I can totally imagine him just being giddy about it (T.T) *heartclench*

What happened at uni today : So me and this guy I’ve known for 5 years since school share one of the majors we have out of two together. He’s very aloof, always sits at the back and doesn’t talk to anyone. But today since he was late, he sat next to me. And he goes ‘You’ve changed. You’ve lost a lost of weight.’ And not even in the positive way… it was condescending.

*proceeds to lose a debate against me* (like seriously you’d think I’d let that slide?)

I've also destroyed my glutes and elbows at the gym today and I'm writing more to the NNN challenge fic along with another one

Romantic killer is so cute and funny! I’d rec you to give it a watch !!

*passes cup of hot chocolate and a squishmallow* go on. I’m listening *pat pat* (੭˶•༝•˶)੭ ♡ You can rant to whenever you want <3

*sending warm and comforting hugs*
