#“NO. NO. IT'S NICE. IT'S SO NICE. OHHH... YOU'VE NEVER LOOKED BETTER”

[frnknstin]

❝ you’re lucky my face is a rare jewel. ❞ › from erik. ( sorry, i’m a comedian ) [@histeriae]

VICTOR HAD TO PHYSICALLY bite his lip to keep from blurting out something... less than kind about the man's rather unfortunate face. Lord have mercy. Truly unfortunate.

"It’s not so bad—really, it’s not," he offered, voice straining with the effort of politeness.

"It’s just a bit of... hyperpigmentation." Victor swallowed. Hyperpigmentation his ass.

Leaning in, he adjusted his glasses and took a closer look. Alright, maybe it truly isn’t that bad. "I can think of a few ways to improve your situation—some strategic skin grafts, perhaps..." He straightened, clasping his hands together. "A bit of cosmetic intervention, if you will. And if nothing else, you'd make an excellent case study for my university. Perhaps not for myown studies, but... someones."

a/n have a lovely weekend everyone🌻

[dumbdomb]

i had an idea and then i turned myself on writing it out and i don't really feel like proofing it rn bc i'd rather go masturbate about it and jerk off 💗

this post includes the word for noncon assault but is totally consensual and depicts that as well with reference to lube, safe words, and checking in. this was just writing for fun and a first draft

i'm so delicate and sensitive. i want to feel their hands finding some way under my clothes. their hands gently caressing and rolling my nipples, tracing the outline of my underwear over my cute ass and groping my cheeks enough to spread my labia. slowly, lightly stroking their fingertips over my erection. speaking softly, telling me how pretty i am and how wrong it feels to molest me. apologizing like they're undone, defeated, succumbing to a strange and overwhelming emotion. "you're so pretty... hahh- i'm sorry. i know i shouldn't be doing this, i just can't stop myself from touching you. i'm so sorry, baby. you know how cute you look... blushing while i rub little circles around your princess cock... hhn~ it's so wrong. do you feel how wet you're getting on my fingers? [barely pressing one inside] so pretty and slutty, babe. i feel like you're corrupting me. [moving my top in whatever way necessary to expose one of my tits] you're so adorable that i can't stop myself with you. [groping my tits while rubbing my little clit under my panties, then carefully easing two fingers inside and massaging] should i stop? hng, you're so hot. i-i'm so fucked up, i'm sorry. i'm sorry... [feeling me reach between my legs] oh, fuck, this is so wrong. no, we shouldn't be doing this... [gently pressing your hardness against my hips, nearly humping my leg. using your wet fingers to stroke my clit while revealing both my tits] you are sooo fucking hot with your tits out... letting a pervert like me do this for you. [switching between rubbing and fingering my cunt] i'm sorry, fuck.. i'm so desperate for you. ohhh, i love watching your tits whenever i fantasize about doing this... i can't believe it's happening. [steadily, gently thrusting inside me and playing with my big, soft, jiggly tiddies. your erection, harder than ever, presses against me on accident. no longer humping me, all focused on my pleasure now]"

[i wince as i begin to cum and you hush me in a calming and reassuring way, massaging my pussy to ease any pain. i try to catch my breath and don't realize you've unbuttoned your pants until i feel your cock/strap sliding between my upper thighs. you hold me close and pretend to fix my clothes, covering me up just so you can undress me again... caressing all over my hips, ass, thighs, belly, making your way to my beautiful chest. groping my body and asking me to forgive you, when you haven't even stopped what you're doing]

"can you forgive me for this? i just wanted to help you feel better. i'm so sorry, i should've asked first..." [beginning to gently fuck between my thighs, paying attention to make sure there's enough lube to rub against my tiny cock with each thrust] i'm so... so- nnnh... fu- ... [quickly putting my tits on display again, delicately tugging on both nipples and fondling them as you very slowly press inside my hole] you're so tiny, mm. i'm not hurting you am i? (genuine concern) your little pussy feels so good, it's so small and cute [on that word, you begin rubbing my clit again. slowly fucking my tight pussy...] i'm sorry i had to fuck you like this. i know how much you need to be treated like a fragile, naive slut. [your soft hands bouncing and playing with my tits while i spread my legs and try to keep my balance] you've made me into a fucked up pervert...! i can't even cum without thinking about molesting you somehow... i'm so sorry, idk why i'm telling you this... how i dream of being so nice and gentle while raping your pretty body... it's so.. wrong... [i try reaching for your hips or legs behind me as i suddenly cum hard, throbbing around you.] it's never enough for you is it...? [spreading my thighs open more, pressing into my hole, rubbing my cute, little cock faster until i cum again - moaning as if it were some kind of resistance, a surprise to hear the sounds emanating from my own mouth] can you do it again, princess..? (eager to take up the challenge of helping me cum multiple times) [pausing briefly to add more lube, fucking my cunt faster and grappling to keep me in place and supported. rubbing my cunt like a desperate pornstar...] you like being fucked like a pretty faggot, too. you look so cute all messy and- [i cum again, both of us kneeling to the floor as i hunch over then roll onto my side, exhausted. you leave me for a brief moment as i lay there catching my breath, hazy and disheveled. you return with a wand, strategically pushing my legs up and sliding a pillow under my hips. you lube yourself into my cunt and turn on the wand, taking a moment to catch your own breath as my face contorts in confusion.] "sorry," you reply in a less pleading tone. "did you want me to stop..." [gliding your cock/strap in and out of my tight, small pussy. tasting me on your fingers, then groping parts of my body] tell me you want me to stop and i will. tell me you Don't want this... [a sly smile flashing across your face, smug in accomplishing your goal to please me. i reply in a way that does not include any of our safewording] ...no... n-no... "what's that? no?! you want me to keep going then!?" [you turn up the wand and i manage to mumble a few words before my body betrays me] nn.. no. please, stop... sto- ahh... hahhh... nmmm~

[andy-y]

Restaurant

(niko x y/n)

Warnings: kissing?

Hii, so here's my first fic!!

Hope you guys like it! Feel free to tell me what I should improve for better fics

♡♡

And there you were, in that stupid restaurant where you actually thought that you were capable of love once again.

You are a famous content creator, but with one catch, you have never shown your face.

You were walking down the street, near a coffee shop that you loved, when all of the sudden, a tall man and no so tall man approach you, but you recognise them, you've been following their content for quite a while, thus admiring the amount of good videos they could put out from the point of view of another content creator.

- Hi! Sorry, we are a bit lost, we are trying to find the square - said the tall man (which, to be fair, the town is like a maze)

- Yes! The square, right, uhmm... if you go down this street and then turn to the left you will see this liquor shop, if you go behi-

- Do you mind actually taking us there? We are so very lost as of right now, I'm scared if we go there we might not be able to come back from whatever this place is. - the short man added - If you're not doing anything relevant of course.

- Uhmm, sure I guess - you answered, but deep down you were just nervous to even be talking to them.

On your way there, they tried doing some chit chat so that it wasn't all that uncomfortable.

- So what do you do for work? - the tall man asked.

- I'm a content creator, I do mainly youtube tho.

- Oh! So you're just like us then - the tall man added.

- Yeah! You're Niko and Aj, right? From the Betasquad? - you tried to pretend like you barely knew them 'cause you didn't want them to feel uncomfortable thanks to you fangirling all over them.

- Ohhh yesyes, you know us - Aj answered.

Anyways, you already got there, when all of a sudden, Niko invites you to this restaurant, as it was getting lunchtime and you've just did a 30min walk with them just so that they wouldn't get lost, which you gladly accepted.

You get in the restaurant, and get ready to order. You decide to get some fish and chips as you hadn't had them in a while. When you look up, you immediately lock eyes with Niko, but none of you said a thing. All of this being interrupted by the waitress coming to take your order.

You start questioning, everything, since you thought that maybe you are just exaggerating everything, but there he was, looking at your lips.

During the lunch, you talked about your job, and you actually showed them your channel with over 6M subs, and let them be the only ones that have seen your face knowing it's you.

By the end, Niko proposed sharing phone numbers just 'in case they got lost', but you knew something was up with him, still, you have them your number.

~~~~~ 1:24 a.m - that same night ~~~~~

Niko: you up?

Y/N: yeah, wyd?

Niko: just chilling yk

Y/N: I was actually about yo start editing a video

Y/N: to*

Niko: nice

Niko: we should hang out some other time, it was nice to get to know you

Y/N: oh I would love to hehe, it was fun meeting you guys

Niko: tomorrow we were actually going to film some stuff around here if you would like to join us

Y/N: sure!

Niko: nice

Niko: cya tomorrow then

Y/N: gnn

~~~~ 10:36 - at the shoot ~~~~

You were showing them the city around for a bit, and showing them the main landmarks and monuments, as that was one of the challenges they had settle for their video.

Walking down the alleyway, Niko walking next to you, your hands touch, but once again, neither of you says anything or makes a distance between the hands. You look at him in the eyes, and you realise that he is trying to play it cool by talking to the camera, that was focused only from your upper torso up.

Aj wanted to go buy a gift for their opponents, so you decide to take them to the one shop in the city that had everything. Looking through the shelves, you look up, he was already looking at you, but decided to break the eye contact quickly.

This went on throughout the filming.

- So...what are you doing tonight? - Niko asked as soon as the shoot finished.

- Well... I don't know, have a date dinner with myself... I guess - you tried to play it cool, 'cause you knew something was up.

- Mmm... how about... you join me for dinner, just you and me, and we can go to the restaurant we went last time... What do you think?

- Yeah! Sure! Why not

- Okay, 7:30?

- That sounds fine to me!

~~~~ 6:30pm - getting ready ~~~~~

You really thought you were incapable of love after what happened last time, the guy left and said no words regarding why he was even leaving you in the first place, and that one being your one and only relationship, it really stuck with you.

You thought that no one could love you, and that maybe, just maybe, you could get into a relationship again.

But still, you didn't want to get your expectations high, but you still kinda did either way.

~~~ 7:00pm - ready for dinner ~~~

You were wearing a beautiful little black dress, with some Swarovski jewelry, some perfume, and you should be getting ready to go.

~~~ at the restaurant ~~~

There he was.

Who could say that he could actually wear a suit with matching pants on.

He was waiting for you.

With a flower on the table, a rose, a red rose, maybe he actually is interested in you.

You sit down, and god was he staring at you with his big doe brown eyes.

You decide to order, you chose some steak with some cheese, he chose the same as you.

You were eating, and talking about common interests, you realized that that was the funniest man you've ever met, he made you genuinely happy.

As dinner went on, he starts flirting more and more with you, those looks, the hands...

And that's when he pulled your hand and kissed you, very softly.

You broke the kiss and start nervously laughing, which he did too.

- Sorry, sorry, maybe I shouldn't have-

- Oh shut up and came here again - you said as you went in for another kiss

Strangely, none of you felt uncomfortable, it's like you were both knew this would happen tonight.

You wanted to pay for dinner, but he decided to stop you and pay for dinner. You even tried to have him split the bill, but he wouldn't.

You left the establishment, not realizing that you were both touching hands, and then holding eachothers.

You started walking towards your car, with him holding your hand.

- You comin'? - you asked him

- Don't even doubt that - he said as he leaned for another kiss, this time in the car with you.

You were approaching the place where he was staying at to drop him off.

- Soo... are we doing this again? - you asked

- Of course, whenever you want - he said with a smile

You laughed and leaned for a kiss again before saying goodbye to him.

~~~ the next day ~~~

Y/N: wyd

Niko: well, I just finished a beta squad shooting soo... as of right now... I am doing nothing right now...

Y/N: oh, I like how that sounds hehe

Y/N: wanna do smth later?

Niko: always

~~~ 2h later ~~~

Y/N: wanna hang out a bit?

...

Y/N: yk, I had a lot of fun yesterday

Y/N: i'd like to repeat that ;)

...

Niko: hi

Niko: umm sure, same place same time?

Y/N: hii

Y/N: yes, omw to get ready :)

As you were getting ready, for once in a very long time, you weren't overthinking everything, because you didn't feel the need, because you were going with the flow.

~~~ at the restaurant ~~~

Surprisingly, you were first, so you decided to take a table and ask for a water while waiting for him.

Time was passing by

Y/N: hii

Y/N: where r you

....

Y/N: you know I'm waiting for you, right?

....

Y/N: are you even coming?

....

And there you were, in that stupid restaurant where you actually thought that you were capable of love once again.

[watermelinoe]

I've been watching the ranma remake and really enjoying it - I never watched the OG but I was obsessed with inuyasha and really wanted to be into """anime""" so I knew a lot about it. idk if I'm brave enough to venture into ao3 looking for fic yet because. man. I wish I could have been able to watch ranma before the gender fandom existed. I know you aren't so much an anime-watcher as manga-reader but you've reblogged ranma gifs so :3 got any ranma thoughts?

ohhh ranma 1/2 was baby's first manga that i read in its entirety.... i haven't watched the entire anime but i've seen select episodes and both feature-length films, hot take but i actually prefer the dub! especially akane's voice and ranma's later voice (they would later go on to do inuyasha and kagome's voices, a nice long career of yelling each other's names lmao)

akane tendo is one of my all-time favorite characters, i first got the idea to cut my very long hair short bc of her, she's still on a pedestal for me and in a better world she would have had a big power-up arc... the shounen curse of girls getting left behind ://

i've read quite a lot of fic over the years and it was probably the first series i ever wrote fanfic for. it's... interesting to consider it from a modern perspective, since the original series didn't exactly age well in some areas. i would say that the main theme could be described as "toxic masculinity" - the main conflict is ranma eventually having to come to terms with his "girl side" while still being considered a man among men. i guess the ~queer~ interpretation would be that he's some flavor of trans, which is funny because the whole series is about playing with gender roles... to the extent that a 30-40 something year old straight japanese woman in the 80s and 90s is willing to challenge gender roles. it's not perfect is what i'm saying, there's still misogyny and homophobia.

in the translation i read years ago, one of the antagonists straight-up insults ranma by calling him a transvestite. and there's a really unfortunate storyline where the protagonists are trying to "correct" a girl who's attracted to ranma in female form, but the punchline is actually it was a crossdressing boy! you can be gender non-conforming as long as you're straight :))

but it was a big deal to me when i first read it bc it depicted characters whose gender non-conformity was just part of them with the underlying message that that's just the way some of us are and it's fine. and ranma ultimately accepts that he's not any less of a man just bc of his "girl side" (which can be seen as one big metaphor for having a "feminine" side). i do get annoyed when people apply trans headcanons to these characters because it misses the point, it's basically saying well actually they ARE less of a man/woman and i'm like 😐 did we read the same series

but anyway yes i have lots of ranma thoughts 😭 too many in fact!!

[pbforeva]

part 5

i actually don’t have something to say for once, i’m surprised cause i never shut up

—

Evelyn's pov:

I wake up next to Aurora around 7 a.m. I see the ice cream we shared last night on the nightstand and smile a bit, until I remember why we needed the ice cream.

I groan and get out of bed while reaching for my phone. I realize Paige texted me back!

Paige

Are you free to hang out tonight?

Sorry, but not tonight

What about tomorrow night?

Yeah! what time?

Whatever works for you

My friends and I are going out

around 8 later, you could come!

You could bring Aurora too!

Sure!

I am so excited to finally get some time away from Blake. I mean I still love him, but it gets kind of lonely because he doesn't like me having many friends. Oh goodness, I hope he doesn't find out about this, he certainly wouldn't like it.

Wait, he doesn't matter any more. I would never cheat on him, and we are still technically together, but it will be so nice to be free for once. Wait, I am free with Blake, right?

I decide I have to stop thinking, so I grab the eggs from the fridge and make Aurora and I breakfast. She wakes up just before I am done and comes to the table when i set our plates down.

"So, how are you feeling, babe?" She asks while poking at her scrambled eggs.

"I mean, I've been better, but i can't stop thinking of it as a simple mistake. I mean I made him pretty mad the other day," I reply while looking into her sympathetic eyes.

"Oh Evelyn, it is not your fault, and I won't have you thinking it is. Also this is not just a mistake, he broke your trust. If it was to get revenge for an accident, you deserve better." She says sweetly but firmly.

"Yeah, I guess," I say. She's wrong. I know she's wrong, she's just trying to make me feel better. I mean it's not the first time this has happened, wanting revenge is just a natural thing I guess.

We finish up breakfast and get ready to head our separate ways for class. I leave before Aurora because my class is earlier, but when I step in the hall, I hear a familiar voice behind me. I turn around to see Paige walking alongside one of her friends. She looks up and meets my eyes, and I watch her eyes light up.

"Hey, Evelyn!" I watch her say with a smile on her face.

"Hey, Paige!" I say back and begin to walk towards her.

"Are you so ready for tonight?" She asks while wiggling her eyebrows at me.

I let out a laugh and say back "Oh, you know it!"

Then the girl beside her begins to talk, "Ohhh, so this is Evelyn, she says while smirking at Paige. "I'm KK by the way," she adds before pulling me in for a hug.

Oh my gosh, if I get one more hug I am going to explode. I know they mean well, but the added pressure on my stomach is not doing well on my fresh bruises. Obviously, I can't tell them to stop because they'd ask why, and they just wouldn't get it. Blake and I have an interesting relationship, no one really gets our dynamic besides us.

I hug her back, but I keep it short, so my ribs don't feel like they're breaking for too long.

"Are you going out with us tonight?" I ask KK, while trying to keep a smile on my face.

Luckily she doesn't notice the deceptive look in my eyes, as she just continues with our conversation.

"Yeah, I am! And you know we are gonna get lit!" She says with an admirable amount of enthusiasm.

"Oh you know it," I say, laughing along with her. I turn to Paige and ask her "So, who is all going?"

"hmm, probably just me, KK, Aubrey, and Azzi, to be honest," she replies with a shrug.

I glance at my phone and realize i'm going to be late for class if I don't wrap this up. "That's cool! I can't wait to meet them," I enthusiastically say.

"Yeah, you've already met them, and I'm sure you'll love them when you get to know them!" She says back, matching my enthusiasm.

"Well, I have to go to class now, but I'll see you two later tonight!" I say before I turn to leave the dorm building.

Paige's pov:

I watch as Evelyn slowly disappears from my view until KK begins to speak.

"So, that's the famous Evelyn," she says with a smirk, "I can see why you like her so much," she continues poking fun at me.

"Stoppp," I say as my fave begins to turn red from embarrassment.

She laughs and we continue down to the cafe. Soon, we arrive, order, and sit down at a table together. KK pulls out her phone as we wait for our drink, but I just sit there and think.

I think about Evelyn and how unhappy she looked this morning. I don't know why, but her smile appeared to be spurious. Ever since Azzi said there was something off about her, I can't help but think the same. The look in her eyes, despite the smile on her face, when someone gives her a hug.

At first I thought it was just because she didn't want me hugging her, but when I noticed a similar look in her eyes when KK hugged her I got a weird feeling. It seemed like it was almost painful to hug us? Ugh, I don't know.

"Yo, Paige," I hear KK say, while snapping her fingers in front of my face.

"Yeah," I half-heartedly respond.

"I said your name like five times, what were you thinking about?" She asks while giggling, "Cause our drinks are ready," she continues while getting up.

"Oh, nothing," I mumble, while following her away from our table.

"Yeah, mhm, I'm sure it wasn't Evelyn," She says while evilly laughing.

"Oh, shut up," I say with my cheeks hot with embarrassment, "it was nothing." She just nods while continuing to smile. It was nothing right? I ask, trying to convince myself. We start to head back to our dorm, and I slowly forget about my deep thoughts from the coffee shop.

Loving You Forever

Word Count: 1354

Summary: After a night out with friends, you're returned to your handsome trooper and he takes care of you.

Warnings: Lots of fluff, pet names and wanting to have a future with this beautiful man.

Author's Note: I just couldn't get him out of my head, this fic kind of wrote itself.

Hardcase was just sitting down watching a hole when there was a knock on the door. Frowning heavily, he wondered who could be visiting his girlfriend at 1 in the morning. Especially as she was out with her friends. He had returned home to surprise her, thinking she would be just finishing work or hanging out at home. But maybe he should have gave her a head's up, as his cyare was going out with friends after work for a few drinks. Initially she was about to come home to be with him, but he has assured her that she should stay, have fun and he'd still be there when she got back. Hardcase knew when she told him it was only a few drinks that it would be quite late when she got back. A few drinks was never just a few drinks, not among friends. He should know, 79s was the place to unwind after a difficult tour and he always had fun with his brothers.

Pushing the button to open the door, he was surprised to see his Captain.

Rex had a long suffering look on his face as he had to support his vod's girl with her arm wrapped around his shoulders and was being held up by him.

"Rex? Er... what's going on? How come you've got Y/N?" Hardcase greeted, surprise written all over his face.

"The taxi dropped them all off at our flat, you're the last stop. Make sure you get her some water and look after her. I've got to go, I've left my girl in the speeder, but have a good night vod'ikas" Rex sighed, patting Y/N's back as he handed you over to Hardcase.

"CASE!" you let out an excited squeal, wrapping your arms around him and squeezing tightly.

"Hey baby, you had a good time?" Hardcase smiled, pushing your hair away from your face. Grinning at him, you nodded and buried your face into his neck, humming happily. "Thanks Rex, look after my future sister-in-law for me!" He teased, laughing at Rex's roll of the eyes and blush.

Shutting the door between them, Hardcase buried his head into your hair. Taking in your soothing scent, he couldn't help but sink into you after a long tour.

"Missed you baby, you're all I could think about" Hardcase mumbled, hands rubbing up and down your sides gently.

Grinning widely at him, you pulled away so you could land a kiss on his lips. Uncoordinated, your lips landed on the corner of his mouth. Both of you burst into laughter, relying on Hardcase to keep you both standing up. "Sorry" you breathed, fingers trailing up his chest and coming to play with the collar of the shirt you had gotten for him. It was in the 501st blue and clung nicely to his chest.

"It's okay, cyar'ika, I know I'm so devastatingly hot that you lose focus" he teased, nuzzling his nose into yours and giving you a quick peck.

Proving him right, you couldn't help but get distracted by him. "You're pretty" you murmured, cupping his face and staring into his beautiful brown eyes. "Pretty great" you finished, unable to stop the giggles as you leaned more into him.

"Thanks mesh'la, how about we get you to bed? Huh? How does that sound?" he chuckled, laying a kiss to your hand before securing his grip around your waist.

"Yes, take me to bed!" You agreed eagerly, almost tripping over your own feet to beat him there.

"Hold on love, as much as I would love to ravish you. It's better if you're sober enough to remember it" Hardcase shook his head, grabbing your hips quickly and stopping you from falling into a heap at his feet.

"Ohhh Case! No fair!" You whined, pout coming out in full force. The one that always made him say yes to anything you wanted.

Admittedly he did like to spoil you, but he wouldn't be swayed on this. Those big beautiful eyes of yours and that delicious pout would all just have to be used tomorrow when you could remember what was going on and in your own mind to say yes. Shaking his head affectionately he scooped you up in his arms, enjoying the small squeak of alarm you let out. "Hold on tight Mesh'la, time to get you sorted" he murmured, pressing a kiss to your temple as he carried you through to the bedroom.

"Cyare!" You chided, butchering the pronunciation as you buried your face into his neck, kissing down the line of his tattoo.

"Not even close, cyare, but it was a cute attempt" he smirked, opening your bedroom door before depositing you on your bed.

It seemed as soon as you were on it, you were content to just sink into the mattress. Allowing it to shape around you and comfort your body. "I never want to leave here" you sighed wistfully, closing your eyes and doing little starfish movements on your bed.

Unable to help it, Hardcase leant down and pressed a kiss on your forehead. You looked so kriffing adorable, he couldn't help but want to spend the rest of his life with you. Putting you to bed when you had too much fun, taking care of you when you were sick. Lazy mornings in bed, passionate nights where you didn't sleep until sunrise, grocery shopping trips, nights cuddled up on the couch, cooking you dinner. He wanted it all in this very moment.

Peeking one eye open, feeling his gaze on you, you spotted him looking at you adoringly, smile on his handsome face.

"I love you" you told him simply, feeling awash with love for your beautiful trooper.

"Love you too, how about we get you more comfy huh? Get your PJs on and under the sheets" he told you, heading towards your cupboard to see what he could find.

"Damn, I really want you to wife me up" you sighed, crawling closer to your pillows and flopping down on them.

Hardcase's overactive brain ground to a halt. He wasn't sure he heard you right, but he hoped that he did. He most certainly wanted to "wife" you up. Is that what the nat-borns called it? He wanted to be your riddur and you be his. "Oh mesh'la,  you'll be embarrassed when you hear about all this tomorrow," he warned, finding your clothes and heading towards the bed. "But just in case you remember this... I would love to be your riddur, " he said softly, brushing the hair out of your face.

"What does riddur mean?" You slurred, beginning to get tired now as you slowly tried to help him get you dressed. In fact it was more of a hindrance than a help, but Hardcase didn't mind. It was like a little tooka rolling around with a ball of wool.

"You'll have to find out yourself, love. Put your arms up love, yes both of them. That's a good girl" he praised, helping you into your baggy top. Heaving the sheets from underneath you, you couldn't help but giggle at him as you went tumbling backwards into the pillows. He joined in, being sure to throw them back over you and covering your head. Tugging them down, he tucked them around you,  nuzzling into your neck and blowing raspberries against the soft delicate skin.

"CASE! STOP!" you giggled, trying to push him away from you.

"Alright alright, you get comfy and wait here. I'm going to get you some pills and a drink to help the hangover tomorrow. And Kix says I never listen to him" he grinned, rushing out to your medical cupboard to find the supplies and to get you a drink to wash them down with. He brought some extra pills for in the morning, knowing you'd be getting quite the headache. Making sure he got everything, he couldn't help but nearly sprint back to the room as fast as he could, all without spilling your drink too.

"Got to take two babe, these are for when you wake up" he instructed, handing the pills to you and the drink. Once you had taken them and had your fill, he helped place them on the side.

Crawling into bed beside you, he couldn't help but bring you into his arms, letting you find the right position you wanted before tightening his hold of you.

"Happy?" He hummed, stroking up and down your arms in soothing patterns. Even when he was relaxing, he had to touch you, had to move his fingers across your skin. It was calming to both you and him.

"Hmm, so good. You're so handsome. My beautiful mesh'la man" you cooed, shuffling even closer to him.

Hardcase let out a snort at that. "Beautiful beautiful man am I?" Hardcase teased, glad that you had picked up some Mando'a from him. Even if you couldn't quite place it right at the moment. Hearing you mumble in agreement, he knew you were tired, drowsiness washing over you. "Get some rest babe, I'm still going to be here in the morning" he promised, nuzzling into you and kissing whatever skin he could reach before he joined you in sleep too.

[Sans x Female!Reader]

34: A Guy What Takes His Time

Merry Christmas!

♪────✿⁠(⁠✧◕⁠ᴗ⁠◕✧⁠)✿⁠────♪

“do you want the bad news or the bad news?” “…” Sans slowly blinks at S-Papyrus, “are you serious?”

“so the bad news is there isn’t any room for you two,” He continues with a shrug, “we gotta get up early tomorrow, so off to bed we all go. that means into the capture zone with you two.”

Besides him, S-Sans doesn’t look happy about the arrangements. If he’s anything similar to your Papyrus, he must’ve wanted you two to at least stay in the living room. You’re surprised that S-Papyrus is going against his older brother’s wishes, but also not really.

If S-Sans is telling the truth about the weird thing that’s fucking with the monster's magic and emotions, then it must be really taking a toll on S-Papyrus.

“That’s fine,” You nod with a smile, looking over to Sans.

Catching your expression, he catches what you wanted him to see. In turn, he nods as well to follow your lead.

S-Papyrus narrows his eyes, “let’s go.”

──

Awe, the Capture Zone isn’t so bad. You assume it’s the same in your Au, but you don’t remember since you've never been there. You hadn’t had a reason to be in there, anyway.

You are sitting close to Sans, playing with his bony hand with your gloved ones. You’re taking the time now to explain your earlier conversation with Swap-Sans nearly word for word to the best of your memory.

You don’t know if Sans heard anything from the living room, but you want him to have the exact information so he can help you think.

“I know it sounds irrelevant, but it’s the best lead we have right now,” You tell him softly.

“no, no. i think you’re onto something. even if nothing comes up from it, it’s better to be safe than sorry.” Sans reassures you, using his other hand to pat your leg.

“And…?” “…? and?”

“It will be nice of us to help these people out with that anyway, regardless if it’s relevant to our search,” You chuckle, “At least then maybe we don’t have to worry about this Papyrus constantly giving us the stink eye.”

“he totally likes you, by the way.”

“No way.”

“yes way. my double likes you, too.” “Nuh-uh. Well–I think the other Sans likes that I’m nice. And Papyrus is just doing all that to irritate you. If he’s like you, then he probably already picked up that you wanna jump my bones.”

Sans snickers and in turn, you laugh too. “I’m serious! Even if what you said is true, you’re the only skeleton I’d wanna go to the Bone Zone™ with.”

His cheeks turn red at your words, looking away but squeezing your hands meaningfully. Your new favorite hobby is making him blush, you fear. Will it become a concern? Probably, but that’s for Sans to deal with.

“tibia honest, i’m still not used to you… it’s a little hard to believe you want all of this,” Sans gestures to himself, “but then you go and say that without warning. it gets through my thick skull and humbles me every time.”

Ugh, you’re going to get cuteness aggression.

Sans shifts just a tad closer, his side now pressed against yours.

“i gotta be the luckiest skeleton in the underground to have you as my girlfriend.”

OH????

You sit up and stare at him with wide eyes. “You–I–Is that–Girlfriend?” Sans shrinks back immediately. It nearly broke your heart.

“unless i was wrong? i-didn’t you say–the other day, you said–”

Ah, right. The “possessive girlfriend” thing. So him not denying it meant that–

Ohhh, this motherfucker.

“Sans, you are so fucking lucky that I like you.”

His smirk is cheeky: “thanks, i try my-”

You need to shut him up so bad.

Grabbing Sans’ hood, you drag him forward to kiss him and relish in that little squeak that you never would’ve expected from a voice like his.

Your lips press against his teeth, feeling the same malleable bone move against you. It’s so weird, but not at all unpleasant. They’re teeth and they don’t feel like lips but it’s not bad at all, and it doesn’t ruin anything for you.

…Can you French this guy?

Just as you’re about to try that, Sans pulls away first–something you’ve come to expect from him when you initiate this type of intimacy. You know it’s not because he wants to get away from you because he dislikes it.

His face is nearly completely dark pink and he has to duck his head down to hide (and fail at it). His own hands moved to clutch the fabric of your sleeves, needing something to anchor himself.

“jesus…” Sans laughs weakly, “what was that for?”

“Didn’t I say I’d kiss the hell out of you in the forest?” “that’s what that was for?!”

“Meh, not really. I just wanted to kiss you. Also, that’s payback for not telling me officially that you thought of me as your girlfriend,” You cup his cheeks and start to squish them a little. They are… surprisingly a bit squishy. “Had me overthinking and everything the whole time.”

“sorry…”

“Already forgiven. You’re really cute, you know.”

Sans groans at your teasing but doesn’t stop you or push you away. You enjoy teasing him, but you’re also starting to understand that you need to take it a little slower for him. No matter his feelings for you or how deep they might run (if they’re deep at all), he clearly needs more adjustment time than you do.

That’s fine with you; you’re a fast-moving gal who likes them slow.

You give him a few minutes to compose himself because the poor baby needs it. Eventually, his face color goes back to normal (you’re being a pal and ignoring his soft pink cheeks) and his hands stop clutching your sleeves so tightly.

Sans clears his throat and scooches a bit away from you. “so, uh… should we get out of here now?”

You nod with a knowing smirk, “Sure, are you good?” “huh? uh, yeah. yeah, i’m good now.”

With the space given to you, you’re able to stand up and dust yourself off. Sans is right behind you in action, cleaning off his shorts lazily. You’re tempted to just do it for him, but you don’t think he can handle you patting his ass right now.

“now,” Sans holds his hand out to you, “let’s bust out of this joint.”

You happily take his hand and close your eyes. There’s the typical glug glug glug glug you feel whenever Sans pulls you through these shortcuts. Now that you know that this magic is low-key affecting your body, it makes you a little nervous. You trust Sans to take care of you should anything bad happen though.

You hear a click of a tongue: “ah, shit.”

Hesitantly, you crack open your eyes.

You are right outside of the Capture Zone, and waiting for you is a very disappointed S-Papyrus. His arms are crossed and there’s a lit cigarette in his mouth.

…Brother, eugh.

You grin and put your hands on your hips, while Sans just meets S-Papyrus’ glare with his own.

“i knew you would pull something like this,” S-Papyrus says perfectly despite the cigarette in his mouth. The perks of using magic to speak, you guess.

“we’ll be right back.” Sans explains, “c’mon, pal. you should be smart enough to put two and two together on your own. let us do what we need to do so we can finally leave this place.”

“i’ve been meaning to ask about that. how are you two even here in the first place?”

“that’s what we’re trying to figure out.”

S-Papyrus doesn’t buy it for shit. So, being the only human with a readable expression, he looks at you.

“how did you two show up here?”

You slowly look at Sans. He shakes his head: don’t answer him. Looking back at S-Papyrus with an apologetic smile, you also shake your head.

You don’t really get how Sans and S-Papyrus can’t reach each other’s motives, but they’re able to easily read yours. Maybe it’s the power of their role as the Judge, but it cancels out on each other? Maybe?

Either way, Sans knows this because even if you lie perfectly, Sans will be able to tell you’re lying. In turn, so will S-Papyrus.

You have this nagging feeling in the back of your mind that beckons you to be upfront with S-Papyrus, though. Every time Sans stops you from speaking the truth, or when you stop yourself, there’s this outside force that makes you want to blurt out the truth.

You have no idea if that’s a good thing or not, just something that feels like you need to do. You can’t even speak up about it because you have no way of explaining this without sounding super suspicious.

S-Papyrus sighs and brings out a hand to wave it dismissively. “you two can go, but i gotta go with you to make sure you’re not up to funny business.”

“and what makes you think you can handle our funny bone?”

You scrunch up your nose, “That was so bad.” You look at the taller monster with a smile, “Sure thing, Papyrus. Feel free to come with us.”

Sans looks at you disapprovingly, but you don’t give a fuck anymore. You’re so fed up with this bullshit already and their arguing is giving you second-hand embarrassment.

To reach downtown Snowdin, you remember that you don’t have to take the bridge so lucky you! There is a lot of walking, but you are already familiar with the path to take as the same one for your commute to work.

Sans is walking on your left with S-Papyrus on your right. You’re trying to make light conversation with the Swap to hopefully ease the tension.

It’s…

Certainly a conversation of all time.

At least he isn’t insulting you or making you feel bad for talking to him. He’s actually talking pretty nicely, but it’s super obvious he’s not putting his guard down.

“Like I care about that. All I know is that if the body soap does its job and actually cleans me, then I don’t care if it’s liquid soap or a bar soap.”

“but the boar soap gets stuck in my joints. that makes liquid soap superior.” S-Papyrus argues, blowing out smoke.

You scrunch your nose and try not to cough at the foul smell. You don’t want to be rude and it’s not your business to tell people whether they can smoke or not. But GAWDAMN that shit is disgusting.

“The whole purpose of soap is to be cleaned off. Wouldn’t the soap just wash out the joints if you do your best?”

S-Papyrus looks at you through the corner of his eye. He plucks his cigarette out and tosses it in the snow. The snow sizzles and melts for a moment, but when S-Papyrus snaps his fingers, the cigarette is gone and cleaned from the ground.

“don’t smoke, [y/n]. it’s real bad.” S-Papyrus waves his hand in front of him as if that will get rid of the smell faster, “us skeletons have no lungs, so we do what we want, y’know?”

You smile appreciatively, “You didn’t have to do that, but thank you.”

S-Papyrus pulls out a carton from his short pockets. It’s slightly beat up but the sound of it suggests that it has a few more left in.

“it says on the side right here. causes fatal lung diseases.” S-Papyrus shakes it to prove a point.

Sans almost frowns. “and you’ve been smoking that?”

S-Papyrus shrugs and grins, putting it away. “makes me look cool.”

“Ehhh.”

“…makes me look edgy?”

“EHHHHH.”

“[y/n] went to school to be a doctor,” Sans nudges your arm, totally not saying that to show you off. “to someone like her, you probably look like the biggest numb skull for smoking even if it does nothing to you.”

It works though, despite the back-handed comment, S-Papyrus looks impressed.

“ahh, so you’re book smart.”

You smile and try to play it off. “I guess so. I never made it to med school (because you didn’t get the chance), so I’m not actually a doctor.”

“still a lot more than most people,” S-Papyrus pats your head once, “be proud of that.”

‘…fuwa fuwa.’

As you three reach further into downtown Snowdin, S-Papyrus starts taking the lead. He’s leading you to the closest spot to the “Evil Thing™” presumably, so you find no use in questioning it.

Unless he’s taking you somewhere to murder you both…

…

Nah, it’s fine, surely.

“Hey, Sans,” You whisper.

“hm?” You point North-South: “Pollux’s shop is that way. I’m kinda curious to see how it changes. Think this Papyrus would let us check it out?”

Sans contemplates this then shrugs, “you can try askin’. he definitely likes you more than me.”

You can’t even argue with that because it’s blatantly true. Poor Sans. You clear your throat and call out S-Papyrus’ name. He stops walking and looks at you questioningly, signaling for you to talk.

“There’s a store nearby, right? Think we can check it out real quick?”

To your surprise, he agrees, “sure, i can go for a drink, anyway.”

‘Yippee!!’

“Yippee!!”

You almost frolic gayly to the shop, but you knew S-Papyrus wouldn’t like you going ahead of him. Outside appearance, it looks the same as it did in your Au. Sans opens the door for you; you thank him with a smile as you walk in.

…

“Oh, my days.” Sans snorts, “no way you just said that.”

At the counter is not your good boy Pollux. Instead, it’s the ice elemental monster who hates your guts: Marcine! She smiles at you with genuine eagerness, waving at you as you walk in.

“Hello, welcome!” Marcine beams, “Welcome to the shop! It’s not often we have new customers!”

…Yeah, this is super weird. You used to this lady hating your guts and your existence.

You just nod at her and continue in. You weren’t paying attention, so you missed how Sans was trying to close the door on S-Papyrus’ face.

The store looks the same, if only a little bit rundown. The items and stocks look to be in the same place at least so you don’t have to wander around aimlessly.

Man, that’s so interesting. If Marcine has taken Pollux’s role, then does that mean-

“Oof!” You stumble back and rub your nose, “Sorry ‘bout that, I didn’t mean to bump into you. You okay?”

“Ugh…”

Oh dear, you recognize his voice.

You can’t help the smile spreading on your lips as you look up at the monster. Pollux is looking to the side with an annoyed expression as if that will help the fact he’s blushing madly.

God, he’s so emo-looking now! His clothes are all black, nearly blending in with his already smoky appearance. Messily done button-up shirt, and cargo pants tucked into beat-up combat boots. The knees are also torn up rather purposefully. He has snake bite piercings in a silver color, standing out starkly against him.

“Watch where you’re going…” He mutters under his breath, eyes shyly going over your figure, “If you got hurt, I’ll get in a lot of trouble.”

“No, no! I’m okay!”

“Good…” Pollux clears his throat, “I-I have to… uh… yeah…”

Swiftly and stiffly, the awkward monster speeds around you with his head hung low. You watch him retreat with an amused smile. Even though he’s supposed to take Marcine’s role and hate you, it looks like his attraction for you transcends Au’s.

This is low-key feeding your ego, should you be worried about developing a God Complex?

Pollux ends up hiding behind the counter in the front, the tuffs of his hair peeking out from behind. Poor guy.

S-Papyrus strides up to you with a small paper bag in his arms, apparently having done his own shopping while you were not paying attention. He pulls out a fancy bottle of, what you assume to be, flavored water. He offers it to you silently.

“take this as a sign of good faith,” S-Papyrus furrows his bone-brows with a contemplative look, “you’ve been… i don’t fully trust you still, but you’ve been cool even with everythin’ going on. so. just take it.”

“Oh, thank you!” You take it gratefully with a smile, “But what about Other Sans?”

You two look over to said monster. He’s chilling near the counter, just watching you and waiting.

S-Papyrus shrugs his shoulders. “…he’ll be alright.”

Dang, the Sans slander is getting out of control. That’s okay, you don’t mind sharing with him.

You don’t want to prolong your stay (in the shop and the Au in general), so you three head out soon after. S-Papyrus takes the lead again, walking ahead of you two. It’s not too long before something shifts in the air.

There's something tense about Sans and S-Papyrus and the way they’re carrying themselves right now. Sans started to brush his hand against yours as you walked, but for some reason, you don’t think it’s for wholesome reasons. Something is nagging in the back of your mind that it’s more like Sans wanting to make sure you’re right there.

Frowning, you reach for his hand and squeeze it. Immediately he squeezes it back, his expression anxious.

“Are–you two okay?” You finally ask.

“i just feel agitated all of a sudden,” Sans admits softly, “well, no. i’ve been feeling it since we got to this area.”

“Could it be related to what the other Sans was talking about?”

S-Papyrus slows down to a stop. He turns around to face you both with a forced smile.

“so, my bro told you about that, huh?” S-Papyrus puts his hands in his hoodie pockets, “i’ve been looking for the source of the problem all day, but i couldn’t find anything.”

“This is the only lead Sans and I have,” You decide to be honest, surely going against Sans’ earlier request. “We have no idea if it’s related to how we got here, but we thought it was worth checking out anyway.”

“but this thing showed up weeks ago. and you two just jumped in here today. unless you mean you’ve been hiding here for weeks the whole time?”

Sans almost rolls his eye-lights, “don’t you think you’d have found us sooner then? it’s the best lead we got right now. unless you got a better idea.”

“no,” S-Papyrus murmurs, already walking away, “i don’t. come on, i know where this… feeling is the strongest.”

You drag your bone boy by the hand to follow behind. He doesn’t look happy with you at all, but he’s just going to have to deal with it.

“I know you said to keep it a secret,” You softly explain to Sans, “but look how being honest is already working out for us.”

“it’s not like i enjoy being this secretive. it’s literally a matter of not fucking up more than we already have. who knows what the repercussions will be like because we’ve been caught immediately.” Sans sighs, trying to keep his cool.

You nod solemnly, “I understand, but… I don’t know. I just have this strange feeling that being hidden isn’t the right path…”

“what do you mean?” “I can’t explain it. I don’t even know how to explain it.” “hm…” You walk in silence for a few minutes after that. The forest is so quiet as it’s currently “nighttime” for the Underground. Not that you can tell when there isn’t a Sun down here, but the monsters are much more acclimated with the “Day and Night” cycle in the Underground than you’ll ever be.

The view is beautiful at least–the white snow crunching under your steps, the dark, full trees decorated with snow on their branches.

Shit is so beautiful.

Nature can be so cliche, you love it. 

“i trust your judgment, [y/n],” Sans suddenly whispers to you, “if you really think that’s the way we gotta go about it… then… then i’ll trust that.”

Your face lights up, “Really?” He nods, though he’s still obviously hesitant: “maybe not now, i gotta mentally prepare myself for it. but… you haven’t led me astray so far.”

You walk closer to him with a smile, “Thank you, Sans.” “yeah, yeah. the things i’d do for you, i swear.” “Gee, don’t sound too happy about that, now…”

“hehe, you know that’s not what i meant.” “Shut your up, your laugh was suspicious.” “how can a laugh be suspicious??” “I don’t know, you tell me!”

S-Papyrus refrains from covering his ears but then remembers that he does not have ears.

Hearing your terrible flirting with someone who was (technically?) his older brother was painful. It’s not a jealousy thing either, don’t be mistaken. He just does NOT want to be listening to this shit the whole time. Man, he shouldn’t have tagged along if he knew he’d have to suffer through this…!

"Ding ding ding! You lose!

"I am not dad. I am Magic Claw. Magic Claw has no children. His days are free and easy."

“Biscuits!”

"Obstacles do not block the path. They ARE the path."

“It’s less than ideal, but it’s still a win!”

“See, I know some stuff!”

“Hey, you always make me laugh.”

"I'm not taking advice from a cartoon dog."

"It's just monkey's singing songs, mate. Don't think too hard about it."

"Interesting plan. I know, how about this plan? I'll do what I want, and you don't tell me what to do."

“Ride Flamingo, RIIIIIDE!”

“I was saving that chippy...”

“Check out my big bum!”

“Who said you can have all that green stuff?”

“Hey Twinkle Toes, hurry up!”

“Would you mind keeping it down?”

“Is that an okay thing to want?”

“I can’t be happy with what I got when she has it better!”

“You can’t just get out of a helicopter in the middle of the sky!”

“...and the fridge doesn’t like me.”

“Ladies and Gentlemen, I’m doing this for my kid.”

“I LIKE STINKY!”

“Look, I just want us to use nice words so everyone thinks we’re a nice family.”

“But I’m much too scared to travel in the outside world!”

“Nooo! I wanna stay in my bad mood!”

“Who ate the mini cereal?”

“Hey no fair, I want a husband too!”

"If you want me to stay your wife, you'll learn about dishwashers."

“I'm veeeeeeeery busy.”

“If you keep being mean and greedy, then no one will want to be your friend!”

“Why would you want to watch some stinky baby have a shower?”

“There must be a reason why you’re being such a pickle tonight.”

“ YOU'RE MAKING ME LATE FOR WORK!”

“Why can’t you do what you’re told?”

"Whoa. I didn't think this through."

"It was the fairies!"

"Bed. Sleep. Now."

“You've still got it, babe.”

“I’m fine, just ignore this.”

“Ah, this is Heaven!”

“This changes everything.”

“Who wrote this?”

“I’m always here if you need me.”

“It’s everything we want.”

“Boring things are still important.”

“COCONUTS HAVE WATER IN THEM!!”

“Me want books for big boys.“

“Are you not entertained??”

“You’re doing great.”

“Is true love not forever?”

“IT’S DAD!”

"Ohhh, what's this? Some romance music?"

“Well, just make me more handsome - if that’s even possible.”

“Oh, tough crowd.”

"I demand you let me down this instant!"

"This is outrageous!"

"THERE'S LEAVES EVERYWHERE."

"Here come the grannies!"

"Boring things are still important."

"You sound like your dad."

"I don't have to. I'm special.

“Did you just eat a tick from your own hair?” 

“You’re a grub! You don’t brush your teeth, you don’t eat vegetables, and you don’t take showers. Grub.” 

“Hey toots! When are we gettin’ married?” 

 “You look like you’ve never cleaned your teeth, brushed your hair, or had a shower in your life.” 

 “Maybe self-improvement just isn’t for you.” 

 “Well, I must say, you really have cleaned yourself up. And I love your little bow tie.” 

“My life is a lie.” 

“’Someone’?! You’re a someone! I’m a... no one.” 

“You know what’s great about being no one? You’re everyone.” 

“I’ve been thinking. How can you be sure you’re not a puppet?” 

"I'M MAKING A SALAD!"

"You're both crazy."

"OOOH. Alright. That's it! We're not going to the park. We're just staying here then!"

"This is great. They're learning a lesson and we get the house cleaned."

"Don't just get the fun stuff. I mean the bag of stuff."

"You're really doing this?" "I think I have to."

"Feet ok. Arms ok. I think we're good!"

"Soo... Has the romance started yet?"

“I don’t feel like playing!”

“Hello, new husband!”

“Wow! Are you serious?”

"I do not have the energy for games today."

"She saw you dancing on her barbeque table."

“Is the whole world made of atoms?”

“How do you remove makeup?”

“Why would anyone like being in a bad mood?”

“DANCE MODE!”

"I peed on my foot."

"Welcome to middle age, kid."

“Don’t tell your mum.”

"This isn't legal anymore!"

"What. Was. That?"

“This is all my stuff from when I used to be cool!”

“Hello doctor lady, do you sell crutches?”

“If grownups grow from babies, and only grownups have babies, who had the first baby?”

"The thing is, I do this to myself."

"I have a wife!"

"Big brothers always beat little brothers."

"He stole our money!" "Well that's putting kind of a slant on it.."

"Didn't you fall in the pool at the wedding?"

“Me? I’m not brave enough.”

“I’m not special anymore!”

"You figured out how to avoid capture by the police."

“If you hit a flamingo, you’ve gone too far.”

“ Remember I'll always be here for you, even if you can't see me... because I love you.”

“I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME!”

"Ladies, ladies. There's plenty to go around."

“Oh leave them alone! They’re just trying to run a small business!”

“How does the baby get in the lady’s belly?”

“You’ve still got it, babe.”

“That’s enough sinister plotting!”

"Me want books for big boys."

“We can edit that bit out right?”

“Oh, a massage! Why, thank you. A little lower. That’s the spot.” 

“Is your frizzy hair very heavy?” 

“I demand you let me down this instant!”

ch. 117

ALRIGHT...... off we go !!! To the set-up chapter.......

I guess whatever you do to the world, Lemon is still going to be a dog...

Aidairo-sensei are.. so funny... this is so predictable... they love to create a specific food situation and give everyone a discreet idiosyncratic order which will be dictated to us the viewer for our pleasure and knowledge...... they have some sort of interest in this kind of thing..... thank you Demmy's

she is kawaii

its nice she has this on her phone and can look at it whenever she wants... (: poor girl... painful but intriguing, right? She must have had to linger and really think about him...

pooooooooooooooooor Nene-chan.....! Pooooor Nene-chaaaan she's trying to be such a selfless girl again....! Tsk tsk... it's not faaaair you know, you've been through so much, if only you could be selfish! Too noble and pure-hearted to confidently usurp your boy's timeline... too small & unconfident to declare their love's existence as important or essential to Amane's being....

*nods*

uhhfgggf nooo don't put them side by siiiiiiide 🫣 IYAAAAAA... the size discrepancy.... Amane's smile & Tsukasa's blank gaze.... KYA... ah Tsukasa you're at perfect pelvis height.... wwww

Surprised to see Akane unwilling to change the world back... genuinely is aligned against the proliferation of kaii, then. All things told, the last world was terribly unsafe for Aoi, of all people.

I'm glad for Teru's unconventional mind.... as a boy made happy by unusual things, that makes sense for him. Happiness isn't something as prescriptive as a list of things accomplished, or an age reached. Surviving doesn't mean flourishing...

she's quick to diminish her own importance, our Nene-chan...

I think in this world, love is the most important thing of all. I wonder what Yugi-sensei's everyday life was defined by... what did he feel, going home alone each day?

a nice and painful face from Teru! I like it....

how fragile life is. He's a bit of a control freak in many ways, he really wouldn't like this sort of situation... deferring to some greater force. Wouldn't it feel much safer to craft reality for yourself & those you love... to have a choice and exercise it, and prove that you can.

Really though, why would the Minamoto family need parents HAH, Teru is so happy with his precious little brother & Princess... being the breadwinner... I'm sure.

I like such an angry Aoi hehaaa... cucked !?!?

tell the AUDIENCE THAT, NENE-CHAN!! You've got such excellent taste ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

ohhh this poor Aoi of this world haha, she's not ready for this directness at all, is she....! Hahaha... I wonder how easily one could 0 to 60 an Aoi who hasn't been confessed to every single day of her life? It works on her much better right here than it typically did in our reality, doesn't it.... you've made her heart stop.... she used to tease you about that as your goal..... haha. Isn't this Akane so impressive and crazy seeming, you have to be bewitched? Oh Akane's charm point....

jesus, the gang increases in size then.... I suppose we want to really carry as many people through this arc as we can. That makes me suspect that we'll really pingpong all over between different people's experiences .... since I can't imagine AidaIro-sensei would want to balance so many people in 1 room interacting... I wonder how we'll divide the gangs up in the longrun? Honestly, so long as Nene-chan isn't stuck with someone like Kou, I'll be content.... he's strapped to Mitsuba seemingly, I hope it stays that way for a while...

lets GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

so many more questions than answers already....

on this first glance, we would have so much confusion, trying to make sense of this appearance... how would we question if this was the Red House of this world?

such questions would occur: is the house so dilapidated even without a murder-suicide occurring here? Does that mean Yugi-sensei never occupied it, never inherited it from his family? If not a massive family suicide, why would it be abandoned in such a terrible state? If not cursed & ominous, why would it be avoided, as such a palatial estate? It was a large & well-furnished, well-loved house, in the Yugi's childhood... what situation would cause their parents to allow it to fall into such chaos? Why would nobody take it over? Who owned it, in its final years of occupation? Where did Yugi-sensei live? Did he rent an apartment elsewhere? Why wouldn't it simply be sold?

At what point did Yugi-sensei no longer call this home, in this timeline? Were his parents still alive, as he moved out? How long ago did they die? Did he outlive them, or die before them?

This just doesn't look like the house of a family who lived happily & as long as they could....

but this might

changes rapidly in appearance from panel to panel.

So our previous questions are moot.... or are they? Haha....

No longer crawling with ivy and dilapidated, chains gone, shingles fixed, NOW it looks like a place Yugi-sensei could have inherited and lived within in his adult life. So is this as it truly is, haha....? Now this looks like a house maintained by a living & fine family ... with few sudden & unforeseen miseries.

I wonder what our Red House's life was like, in this timeline....

I'm quite fond of the idea of Yugi-sensei living in it, taking it over from his parents when they pass away....

a handsome man in a beautiful house~~

let's see what will happen!

About the RookVil drawing from yesterday, a comic from ko-fi and some other stuff.

Anonymous asked:

Hey sorry if you've answered this before but what drawing program do you use? I've been trying to find if you've been asked that before but the search feature is not the greatest.

No worries, Anon! It’s been a while since I answered that anyway.

I draw in Photoshop CS6 that Katsu helped me to pirate years and years ago. I also have ClipStudio, but I haven’t used it properly yet.

Anonymous asked:

In regards to your latest kofi picture, what accident is this and was Azul the cause of it? Also, is going to punish Idia for this? When Ortho is better, couldn’t he just blast Azul’s and the Tweel’s asses to kingdom come? Sorry for so many questions 😓

To be completely honest, Anon, the story isn’t very concrete and specific. There are some possible elements of what happened in my head, but until/if we come up with a proper scenario, I would like to keep it vague!

Here is what I can say for certain: after being separated from Idia for quite a long time, Azul is going to kind of take care of him, as in “it’s okay, you’ve suffered enough” kind of way; but Idia is smart enough to know that this is just Azul trying to make Idia rely on him again, so he could shut the cage door and trap him once and for all. Azul is also very good at victimblaming, manipulating and gaslighting + has will-power that Idia doesn’t always have, so even if Idia knows that Azul’s kindness isn’t genuine (Azul never forgets those who betray him), he is powerless to change anything at this point. He just wants him and Ortho to be safe, and Ortho wants it too. So even though Ortho technically could blast Azul and the Tweels’ asses, Azul is perfectly aware of this risk, so he uses a different approach on Ortho. After all, Ortho is a smart boy + he and Azul have the same goal: they want Idia to be happy, right? It’s easier to do it while working together instead of fighting!

Anyways, Azul scary and powerful, and at this point in the story he has a lot of useful connections including STYX and probably even Idia’s parents. A lot more strings to manipulate the events in a way that would portray him as a forgiving and loving saint, but still ensure that Idia never leaves him again.

And after this position is secured, then he might start punishing Idia. But in a way that is very subtle to everyone around them, but painfully obvious for Idia.

Man, feral Rook really does just hit different doesn't he? That latest art was just so juicy and savory that it made my mouth water. Just wanna chew on it for a bit like a nice steak.

Thank you so much, Anon! Please feel free to enjoy on it, and enjoy your meal <3

Feral Rook is a delight to draw, I like how unapologetic and animalistic he could be drawn despite being a human.

Anonymous asked:

And this must be part three of their first time together.

I told you I can’t stop imagining their first time lol

eh-nonnie-mouse asked:

How quickly do you think Vil became House warden after getting caught by roommates for the (insert number of times previously) time? Rook on the other hand...he looks like he just wants everyone to see Vils beauty. Or maybe this kind of beauty is only saved for him?

Vil is a man of patience: as far as I know, he only became a housewarden during his 3rd year. I have no idea how he managed to survive for two years (including their honeymoon phase!) with roommates… maybe the previous housewarden was kind enough to make these two roommates during their second year??

I’m sure Rook doesn’t mind people looking, but at the same time, he really might express how the beauty that only he gets to see is special… but it would be so greedy of him to not let other people see Vil like this!

Rook is actually quite good at being stealthy, but I guess he doesn’t always want to be…

Anonymous asked:

Ohhh.... but imagine if the ones that walked in on Rook and Vil were Floyd and Epel.

What sort of drama would that be?

Or maybe they'd just see it as an excuse to do whatever they want at that point.

Well… since it’s Rook and Vil’s first year, Floyd and Epel aren’t currently there, but if they were to walk on them now (when RookVil are third years), Vil would probably be rather annoyed or even angry than embarrassed. He’ll just scold and punish both of them lol And then he might ask them about why they were even there, in his dorm, breaking into his room.

Rook wouldn’t care either way, he’d probably heard their steps way before they actually walked in on them...

In terms of the younger ones’ reaction though, I feel like whatever they’re going to see, it wouldn’t be much of a surprise for Floyd – it’s like not even a secret. It would be funny if Epel got surprised though, imagine living by their side for a year and having no idea this is happening?

Anonymous asked:

Do you have a yuu?

Nope! Not really interested in that.

Just want to say that Code Geass was the first and only anime yo make me cry. Lelouch’s death killed me more than it did him.

Very understandable, Anon. Code Geass is really very, very good and has a lot of heart-wrenching moments.

[alipeeps]

Episode 38

Oh shit... Yurong's going to suggest killing Wanning as an excuse to attack, isn't he? Kill her in a way that blames the emperor...

That would solve all his problems. It would secure him a firm place in the new emperor's government, as the man who helped the coup to happen, and would rid him of Wanning's attachment to him.

Fuck me, I hate being right sometimes.

Mmmm why do I think that any poison Yurong gives Wanning would not be fake? But would he genuinely be going against Lord Cheng's wishes if he did that, or is this whole conversation a way (understood by both of them) of Lord Cheng tacitly agreeing to her death whilst absolving himself of responsibility for having actually agreed to it?

What the fuck is it that he requested in return? It'd better not be Xue Li!!

Ahhh so Lord Cheng and Wanning are both children of a concubine, they are full blood siblings. The emperor is presumably the child of a wife, making him a more legitimate child and probably why he was made crown prince in favour of the older Lord Cheng.

Love the contrasting scenes of both sides making their plans for the upcoming battle for the city.

Ooof Yurong straight up addressing Lord Cheng as Your Majesty.

"You've never believed in the heavens. You only believe in yourself."

*ith her hand over his heart. "No. I also believe in you."

I am LIVING. This is peak fucking romance people holy shit!! 😭

"Also, I will never abandon you. No matter what."!"

Ayyyy granny Jiang be like, holy shit, my son finally grew a pair. 😂

I love granny Jiang. She'd better survive this.

Shitty uncle on the other hand can fuck right off.

At least consort Ji has some actual guts and it does seem like she actually does love the emperor.

Holy SHIT when this flashback again I thought oh shiiit did she poison her father? But no. Not even. She fucking straight up smothered him!!! 😮😮

Oooft Xiao Heng has nerves of steel to not react to Lord Cheng's taunting about his father's death. Plus that nice little veiled warning about not making the same mistake as his father and retreating while there's still chance. Honestly, fuck this dude.

The rising tension in this episode, with the rebellion looming ever closer, is really getting to me.

What the fuccckkk is shitty uncle up to? Is he planning to save his own neck by handing Xue Li over to the rebels?

You FUCKING BASTARD!!!

A letter asking you out of the blue to go urgently to the duke's residence when he told you specifically to stay home?

WTF? Did they somehow replace Zhao Ke with an imposter? How would that even be possible? And how would the imposter know that the whistle is used to summon him?

What were we supposed to notice about his fingers? Was the skin colour uneven where they tried to make this imposter look like Zhao Ke? I couldn't tell but am pretty sure Xue Li noticed.

Ohhh my girl is smart.

Oh shitttttt. Is she in Wanning's private prison?

That's be a yes. Shit.

Fuuuuck there's still 2 whole episodes to go. Where is this gonna go?

Tg boys reactions to an artist s/o?

TG Boys w an Artist GF HCS

Hi Love,

Lol, I realized now that you said reaction when I made hcs. I guess I got really excited. Anyways I hope you like it.

Prompt

Requests are open

Rules

Warning:

*certain words have been/may be censored for Tumblr guidelines.

⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯

Kaneki:

He likes watching you make things with your hands and he likes to join you.

Even if he doesn’t have a clue of what he’s doing.

He really likes it when you make mugs so that you two can use them for coffee.

You once made him a really nice-looking one for his birthday so he really cherishes it.

Ken also likes the doodles you paint on them since they look so pleasing.

You also probably like making aesthetic and minimalist vases which he likes to put on the coffee table you both have or somewhere on a counter of your apartment.

If people come over and like the vase, he will be excited to tell them that his girlfriend made them.

Ken even likes it when you sculpt random things too.

Hide:

Omg he’s thrilled to see your work every single time as a cake decorator.

Like he brags about your work all the time.

At first you did it for fun but he advertised you so much that you got a job for it.

He looks forward to parties and birthdays because he gets to see your work.

He sometimes will just watch you pipe and he’s just an awe like a child.

Would never critique bc he doesn’t know how to do anything he just praises your work.

When it’s his birthday you have to go all out mostly cause he just likes seeing your creativity.

He finds it interesting.

And he likes seeing you in an apron, he literally bought you a custom one that says “I love Hide.”

Ayato:

Thinks it's cool, mostly cause he can. drink coffee and actually appreciate the work more.

He also likes it because it's something you do.

Let me be clear if his sister was a barista he could give less of a fuck.

It also causes you to put a lot of time into it.

And he likes it if you make a personalized design for him.

He's not a huge fan of the heart doodles that much.

Cause he thinks they're "girly".

So he prefers designs like the realistic cat.

In general, if his girl is an artist he's not that big on it because he literally cannot do any form of art whatsoever.

So he barely gets the point and only admires you bc he's obsessed with you and no one else.

seriously he has a one-tracked one and is very picky.

Yomo:

Like Ayato he doesn't really understand art nor can he do it.

But unlike him, he will admire the works of others since it's something he can't do.

Even if he wouldn't admit it.

Though if there's one thing you both know he likes your photographs.

I mean you even take pictures of the two of you or just him and it looks great!

You pin them in the room and he thinks all your photos look perfect even if you don't think so.

One of your favorite things is to take pictures of him, like the left photo, rather than taking pictures of yourself.

Because of your photography skills and influence, he kinda learns a little bit about lighting and angles and how to use a camera.

Since he cares about you a lot tho, he would probably buy you one of those expensive cameras that you've always talked about.

Even if you do things with film he's interested and willing to see your works.

Uta:

Ohhh two artists, the studio isn't big enough for the both of you.

Well, that is when Uta gets competitive anyways.

It's not always, but sometimes he wants to challenge you about art.

"Let's see who's better at tattoo art." He'd say.

"Uh, no fair. That's your thing, Uta." You'd point out.

"That's the point, babe or should I say, amateur." He'd smirk making your mouth agape.

"Hey!" You'd exclaim.

"What's the matter? You gonna lose?" He'd tease.

You'd grow competitive yourself after here this, "Oh you're so going down, loser!" You'd giggle before getting the materials for the task.

It's always such a battle to win, it's mostly cause he's good but also fast. He is probably much faster than you because he does it as a job.

"Hah! Done before you in record time." He'd smirk, rubbing it in your face while you looked at him with your arms crossed. Completely annoyed by him.

Sighing you'd ask, "Okay, what do I have to do?"

He'd look at you with a playful smirk, "Ohhh can you guess?"

You'd look at him biting your lip before saying, "It's that three-letter word isn't it?"

He'd laugh, "You're good at being the loser in this game, you know?"

You'd playfully hit him, "Shut up!"

In general, though, he likes your art work.

But he has a habit of kissing you when you're trying to paint so you sometimes mess up.

Or rather you can't finish the piece because he's keeping you busy with other activities.

But you're the same with when he's working so it's fair.

You've learned to pull him away from work since he does it to you.

You two have paint fights.

Also, he likes seeing you pin up the art bc its an excuse for him to look at your butt.

Gosh, I need more of an exclusive ask for hcs with him just to write more about an artist gf. So I'm cutting it here lol.

Furuta:

Music and dance, sort of both tbh.

Or either one.

But he'd probably like a girl who is a ballet dancer since they are graceful.

Believe it or not, he likes watching the plays, and if you were in one he'd definitely want to see it.

He also likes to help you stretch or watch you stretch.

Idk why but I get the feeling that he likes to help you put your ballet shoes on.

If you can play the piano he really likes it and could listen to the tunes you create all day long.

I also feel like he might have some experience with it so if he wants to teach you a piece he can put his hand over yours.

Rule number one about Furuta, you can never stop him from being sensual, even if you're hobbies. He always turns it into something unexpected.

Like it can't ever not be suggestive with him.

Even if he claims he's "helping".

Takizawa (ghoul):

He doesn't get involved in your work he just likes seeing the progress and finished product.

Though he can be bothersome with the shoulder kisses sometimes.

Your paintings are usually about both of you and he really likes them.

You spend a lot of time on them and so afterwords he likes to frame it even if you tell him the piece isn't that good.

If you ask for advice he gives some but mostly he's usually just derailing you.

When it comes to picking flowers he gets more involved.

Though still, he likes when you do it because its a hobby of yours.

The habit really started when he bought a vase that you really like for your place with him.

Though he's not a very colorful person he likes seeing light up the place.

The only thing sei will do for sure is take care of the flowers when you're busy.

He may not share the same feelings with you about your hobbies but enjoys making you happy.

I mean you're all he has so you're the most important person to him.

And all he wants is for you to be happy.

HIII I love ur story "TRYING" I have some few suggestion for ur next story Can u do sakusa kiyoomi pure angst with gender neutral reader? Like when the reader confess to sakusa but he rejects her and he regretted it so muchh

✐REJECTION❦ - Sakusa Kiyoomi x Gender Neutral Reader

TW: crying, pure angst , gender neutral reader

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

author's note: hellooo my vamp!! I'm thankful that you like my previous story I'm a little bit confused because you said gender neutral, yet you addressed them as her but anyway, I'll just stick to they/them hope that's ok to you

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※

Third Person's point of view

You and Kiyoomi Sakusa have known each other since you were five. While Kiyoomi has always had a soft side for you, you never thought he liked you the way you liked him.

Your bucket list

1. Go skydiving

2. Climb a tree

3. Give handwritten letters to friends

4. Get a tattoo

5. Get drunk

6. Confess to Kiyoomi Sakusa

"Oomi!" you shout, running toward him.

"Don't be so loud. What is it, huh?" he teases.

"Well... can you help me with something?" you ask, looking down.

"What, did you get in trouble again?" His eyes crinkle in a smirk behind his mask.

"Nooo, it's just... I have a bucket list, but I'll only tell you! You can't see or touch the paper, and we need to do everything as soon as possible!" you say, beaming.

He raises an eyebrow. "And why do I need to be involved?"

"Because. Now quiet and let's just do it. You've got nothing to do this month anyway," you say, smirking.

He sighs. "Fine."

•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•

1. Go skydiving

"Ohhh, I'm excited!" you shout, adrenaline rushing as you look at the open land below.

Beside you, Kiyoomi rolls his eyes. "You better not pass out or throw up" he mutters.

You chuckle nervously. "Don't worry, I've got this." 

The thrill of freefall sweeps over you as you jump, the wind rushing past. For a moment, all your worries vanish. 

•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•

2. Climb a tree

The following weekend, you both stand in a lush forest.

"Alright, which tree should we climb?" you ask, grinning at Kiyoomi.

He points to a massive oak. "That one."

"Seriously? It's huge!" you say, staring.

He smirks, taking a step toward it. "Scared?"

"No way." You both climb, branches swaying under your weight. At the top, a breathtaking view stretches before you. 

•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•

3. Give handwritten letters to friends

Over the next few weeks, you spend time writing letters to friends. Kiyoomi's words are- well, not so long and very concise... but deep, surprising you. As he seals his envelope, you feel a stronger connection between you two. You started to think about why you didn't do this earlier.

Kiyoomi sits across from you, his expression focused as he scribbles down his thoughts.

"You really put a lot of effort into these" he comments, glancing up at you.

You smile, a little shy. "I just think it's nice to make it like this. Plus, it feels more personal, you know?"

Kiyoomi nods, his brow furrowed in concentration. "Yeah, but mine are... well, short."

As he seals his envelope, you tease, "But your words pack a punch. I'm surprised you even write at all."

"Don't make me regret it" he replies, his tone playful. 

•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•

4. Get a tattoo

Sitting in the tattoo parlor, you hold Kiyoomi's hand tightly. The sensation of the needle is easier to bear with him beside you. He watches intently, fingers twitching as if to reach out. 

"Why did I agree to this?" Kiyoomi mutter, glancing at you, he watches intently, his expression unreadable.

"You'll thank me later" you replied, your fingers twitching, itching to reach out. 

"Just breathe." he said.

"I am breathing! It just hurts a little" you admit, squeezing his hand tighter.

"You can do this" he encourages, a rare warmth in his voice that makes your heart flutter.

5. Get drunk

At a small party, you raise a shot glass and grin. "Cheers!"

Kiyoomi stands beside you, eyebrows raised in skepticism. "You sure about this? You know shots aren't exactly candy, right?"

You nod energetically, eyes sparkling. "Of course! What's life without a little fun? Besides, I can handle it!"

He watches you skeptically as you slam the shot back, pouting slightly at the burn. 

"You might want to slow down there, champ. I don't want to babysit you later." he joked, though, it may or may not be true.

"Oh, please!" you laugh, waving him off. "You can handle a little mess. Besides, you're already a pro at it!"

He rolls his eyes, smirking. "I'm the only one here with the potential to be a responsible adult."

The night goes by with laughter, stories, and dancing filling the air. You spot a group doing an exaggerated conga line and leap to your feet, pulling Kiyoomi along with you.

"Come on! Join the conga!" you shout, laughing uncontrollably.

He resists, crossing his arms. "I'm not doing the conga. I'm way too cool for that."

You pout dramatically. "Too cool? Or too scared?"

"More like too smart" he retorts, trying to suppress a smile. "But I guess I could lead a proper conga if it means keeping an eye on you."

"Fine! But only if you wear a ridiculous hat!" you challenge, determined to win him over.

"Why would I-" he starts, but you're already searching through a nearby pile of party accessories, successfully placing a bright pink feather boa on his shoulders.

"Perfect! Now you look the part!" you giggle, snapping a picture before he can object.

He shakes his head, half amused, half annoyed. "I swear, if I end up on the internet like this..."

"Oh, relax! You look fabulous! Now let's conga!" you insist, pulling him into the line as he begrudgingly follows, trying to keep his cool despite the ridiculousness of it all.

Gradually, Kiyoomi's guard lowers, revealing a side you've never seen before. He starts to loosen up, his movements becoming more animated as he gets caught up in the moment. 

"Okay, okay! This isn't so bad" he admits, a genuine smile breaking through.

You beam, feeling a rush of happiness. "See? This is what it's all about! Just let go and have fun!"

"Fine," he agreed, throwing his hands in the air dramatically. "But if I regret this tomorrow, I'm blaming you."

"Deal!" you laugh, clinking your glasses together again. "Now, let's take another shot!"

"Just one more, and then I'm cutting you off" he warns, but you can see the playful glint in his eyes.

6. Confess to Kiyoomi Sakusa

The moment has finally come. You've carried this weight for so long, and now, it's time to let it out. You've admired him for years, fallen for his determination and the rare moments when his eyes light up.

"Kiyoomi" you start, voice slightly shaky. "There's something I need to tell you."

He looks at you, fully attentive. "Go ahead."

Taking a deep breath, you meet his gaze. 

"I... I care about you. More than I can say. You've been a in my life, and my feelings for you have grown so much. I don't expect anything in return, but I wanted you to know."

His eyes search yours, expression unreadable. Your heart pounds, hoping he'll feel the same.

"I appreciate our friendship..." he says quietly, "but I need to be honest. I've noticed your feelings, and... I can't return them in the same way.."

Your heart aches, but you keep your composure. "Oh... I understand."

"I hope you do.." he says gently. "I want us to stay friends, but I don't want to give you false hope. It wouldn't be fair."

Tears blur your vision, but you nod. "Thank you for being honest."

Kiyoomi's point of view

Their expression... a mix of disappointment and sadness... it hurts to see. I've hurt them, but this is the right thing to do... isn't it?

I reach out, wiping away a stray tear. "I care about you, Y/N. I hope this doesn't change our friendship."

They manages a weak smile. "It won't... I promise."

The air between us feels heavy with unspoken words and unfulfilled hopes. A pang of regret fills my chest, I wish I could ease their pain.

Third Person's point of view

Reluctantly, Kiyoomi helps you with each item on your bucket list. With every thing you do, he sees your spirit and determination, and you grow closer. Hours are spent talking about dreams, life, and everything in between, as he slowly realizes the strength you've been having.

As you draw closer, your health begins to deteriorate. You skip days due to exhaustion, worrying Kiyoomi, who starts researching your condition privately. 

One day, while you're resting, he finds your bucket list and realizes the truth... the reason for your urgency... your cancer.

The thought of the world without you in it... He finally realizes something...

"Hey" Kiyoomi's voice is gentle as he sits beside you. "I want to talk."

You manage a small smile. "Sure, what's up?"

"I found your bucket list." His expression is sincere, pained.

Your heart races. "Oh... I didn't mean for you to see that."

He takes your hand in his, fingers intertwining with yours. "You should have told me, Y/N" he says, a tear slipping from his eye.

You look into his eyes, seeing regret. "I didn't want you to treat me differently."

He squeezes your hand. "I already treat you differently because you mean more to me than anyone else. I've just been too afraid... too coward.. to admit it even just to myself."

Kiyoomi's point of view

Seeing their fragile smile breaks me. I should have known... the way they held on to each moment, how they wanted to do so much in so little time. I've been blind.

I grip their hand tighter. "I'm sorry for not being there when you needed someone."

Tears filled their eyes, and I want to take away their pain. "Kiyoomi, it's okay. I didn't tell you because I wanted our time to feel real."

I lift their hand, pressing a soft kiss on their knuckles. "Let's make every moment count then..."

Third Person's point of view

You continue checking off the list together, cherishing every minute. On a quiet night after completing the final item... confessing once more to Kiyoomi... he whispers the words you've been wanting to hear... "I love you."

In those final moments, as the truth of parting... of you leaving settles, you reach out with a mix of vulnerability and strength, pulling him close.

And in that heart-wrenching moment, your lips meet in a kiss that feels timeless. It's a kiss filled with all the unspoken words, the shared memories, and the bond that will live on, echoing softly between heartbeats even after you let him go...

At that very moment, you stopped breathing, your heart refused to beat, and everything in your body shut down completely. In that same instant, Kiyoomi promised to never love anyone else... and he kept that promise until his last breaths.

Should I make an alternative ending? A fluff one?

Feel free to ask, my vamps

MASTER LIST

[lotusarchon]

I’ve seen more people complaining about how awful macaque fans are while making themselves and other wukong fans look terrible in the process than actual horrible macaque fans. Could you please point me towards the people or arguments on that side who are attacking and causing problems because this all seems very one sided and bitter. ( no hate)

- a very confused new lmk fan

Hm. So either you're implying that I'm the one who's "causing problems" and "making Wukong seem awful" for stating that I'm not fond of Macaque fans, or you've met others despite being a new LMK fan and you think coming to MY account for some reason to yap is either gonna make you look cool so you can tell everyone "hey guys this Macaque hater responded to me teehee I'm so funny :3" or you might go "Ohhh that makes sense." I hope you're not someone that follows my account. Please don't tell me you follow my account, i heavily dislike people like you who will jump into my anons, ready to start an argument, but will not read.

I'm gonna talk, so, put on your glasses if you wear them, okay?? Wear them and use them to read, okay??

I don't know how long you've been around my account. If you're new, maybe not long, so you probably wouldn't know me from any of my other accounts in the past. My HATRED, not dislike, of Macaque fans, stems from the amount of times I've met Macaque fans who've swarmed my anons telling me to kill myself or,and this is the best part, get raped, for not liking Macaque. People have told me to kill myself for pointing out the portrayal of Macaque being only a victim and not also an abuser is weird.

On MY TUMBLR DUDE. I was 17 WHEN I FIRST STARTED GETTING THIS HATE. 17. A CHILD. I'M 18 AND STILL HAVE PEOPLE TELLING ME I'M A CUNT FOR NOT LIKING MACAQUE.

I can't tell you if there's still arguments about him. If you had a brain, you would've known that. After getting bullied off my accounts, I've chosen to block any content dealing with Lego Monkie Kid. Even on my AO3, I've never read any type of LMK fanfiction unless it's my friends.

I've cut complete interaction with the Lego Monkie Kid fandom, because majority of you don't handle opinions well. I'm an adult and don't feel comfortable interacting with children, and if someone thinks telling me to commit suicide is better than actually having an adult conversation with someone about their favorite, then eh.

Now, I'm begging you, because I think you're a dumbass. Full offense. READ what I'm saying carefully.

I am NOT saying all Macaque fans are bad. One of my newest friends is a Macaque fan, and it's genuinely very nice talking to her on occasion. She's a literal sweetheart and not once when I've expressed my dislike for Macaque has she ever acted any differently towards me. She even explains why SHE likes Macaque, and I even agree with her points.

READ, AGAIN, that I'm not saying I dislike Macaque as a character either. Given you're a dumbass who missed the post I made about Macaque, and chose to only dwell on the one I said "ask his fans", I don't have very high hopes for you.

Macaque as a character is pretty interesting, and I heavily relate to him a lot. I don't like him enough to consider him my favorite, but I like his portrayal, and I hate any version of him that paints him as a victim. In simpler terms, I love-hate him.

What irks me with this is that despite hating how people portray him, I've never once told anyone to kill themselves for it. I've never gone into anyone's comments, dms or anons to tell them they're dumb and they should die. I've never even went out of my way to harass people who hate Wukong. Why is it so hard to ask the same for me??

Anon. We have a Trini saying where i live where we're taught that people like you are not to be trusted. This innocent, harmless question is bound to start arguments, which is very well your intention. You phrased yourself as being new, while also "curious" about the "hate" on Macaque fans while Wukong gets a "supposed bad rep from his fans."

You're not gonna get that from me, though. I have to admit, you're really good at being a little snake, but unfortunately, I know better. And I know better because I've met someone like you before posing a similar question in my past account and causing a lottt of shit to happen to me. I have to wonder what you people think you're gaining from that.

Anyways, snake anon, allow me to summarize for you.

1) My one sided and unjustified hate against your pwecious Macaque fans 🥺 the people who have never done anything ever while all Wukong fans are evil bitches 👹, stem from my own experience. If you're gonna tell 17 year old me that I'm being dramatic for harboring a grudge against fans who sent you death and rape threats for not liking their fave, I think you need to get some help. Pick up a reading book, I hear Enid Blyton was a good read.

2) You're hoping for an argument, and you're not getting it. Sun Wukong fans and Macaque fans are equally bad. The difference is that Sun Wukong fans haven't told me to kill myself or get raped.

3) You can argue insistently that not all the fans are like that, but given how you've reacted, at the ready to cry and defend your fellow fans by pretending to be curious about my one sided and bitter hate, my opinion is not subjected to change. And it won't change until fucking cunts who like Macaque stop flooding my anons and telling me to die for hating Macaque.

4) Please read properly. I'm begging you.

Also, I'm kinda curious on how the fuck you found my account. Like. I didn't even tag that post?? Are you a follower of mine?? If so, how have you missed the OTHER post I've made about Macaque, and how the fuck have you not seen me making Macaque content while coming here to yap?? Are...are you high?? Are you smoking heroine?? Can I have some??

Do not come here to whine again, about me being rude to you either, Anon. Your tone is not only rude but incredibly condescending, and more over, you came here to start problems. Do you think I'm NOT familiar with you people?? You're very obviously here to start some argument.

You came here, expecting me to start yelling how Wukong fans are better, right? Because you phrased yourself in a manner that made it seem you were directly insulting me.

Sadly, I'm aware. Wukong fans are just as bad as Macaque fans, I'm no fool. But the biggest difference is, I've never had a Wukong fan attack me. When I expressed Wukong's flaws, I've never had someone tell me to get RAPED. Mind you, that was when I was a seventeen year old kid who didn't like Wukong much either and expressed that heavily in a post. I was a big MK fan back then, yet not a single Wukong fan attacked me for it. That's why I've grown to like Wukong.

For anyone else; don't attack people for expressing opinions on characters. If you don't like Wukong, don't tell Wukong fans to die. If you like Macaque, don't tell anyone to die for disagreeing with you. Block buttons exist.

Also, don't do what this dumbass snake anon is doing, attempting to spurn arguments. I personally speak from experience, so if dumbass anon is upset Macaque fans have literally scarred me, then they can literally go anywhere else.

Dude I literally write so much Macaque porn you'd think that'd be enough for this dumbass to figure out I don't necessarily mean every single Macaque fan is shit or I hate Macaque that much but apparently not.

1 (looking at T*birama), 3, 8, 13, 16, 21, 22 & 23 for the asking game :3

(I also chose violence today)

the character everyone gets wrong

For Tobirama i just wish people would stop acting like he doesn’t have problems. It’s fine to like a character because you think they’re cool (a lot of people like Madara as well) but let’s not act all surprised when you realize that people hate that character for very valid reason’s (making lots of jutsu’s doesn’t make up for being a ninja racist/hateful jerkwad)

Also, everything people credit him with making in the village to ‘prove he’s the best hokage’ are things that were wrong with the system or other’s made better. Chunin exam (kids fighting kids. Wrong!), acadamy (good idea but kakashi and Iruka made it better by extending it to other’s so they could learn shinobi skills without expecting to become shinobi), Police force (making one entire clan the one’s in charge of a police force is NEVER a good idea. It does not show ‘trust’ it show’s that he thought they could only be useful to the village in one area)

screenshot or description of the worst take you've seen on tumblr

Ohhh there’s so many.

Right now i’m going to have to go with ‘Hinata didn’t care about her sister and was only on the mission because of Naruto’. Hinata love’s her sister and was trying to rescue her. She cared deeply about her sister and her being caught off guard by Naruto’s confession doesn’t wash that away. It means she was caught off guard

‘Oh but naruto said-‘

Yes, and Hinata’s not caught off guard by ‘we need to rescue hinabi’ because that’s why they’re there. She doesn’t need to be told why they’re there. She was on the moon and almost married a creep to try and get close to her sister and save her

Thinking about naruto in her dreams doesn’t damn her. We literally do not control our dreams and at this point she at least knows her sister is alive and she is actively trying to do something to save her

Stop shitting on my girl for her crush jfc

common fandom opinion that everyone is wrong about

Kakashi didn’t care about Sakura/Didn’t teach her anything

Tell me you didn’t read the manga without telling me you didn’t read the manga. Sakura is not the main character so if she’s not in the scene her development takes a back seat to Naruto’s, but Kishi constantly writes throughout the story about how much Kakashi cares about all of his students. He notices Sakura’s skill with chakra control, he teaches her the Qi release, he protects her throughout the war arc (which is an act of PLATONIC LOVE).

worst blorboficiation

You know what, Tobirama. Since we went over this

Love your man but stop acting like he isn’t a hateful douch canoe

you can't understand why so many people like this thing (characterization, trope, headcanon, etc)

Perfect good at everything Sakura. Hate it.

But ok i’ll choose another one. Bottom Kakashi. And i choose this specificlly because i’ve had people come at me for daring to not ship him exclusively as a bottom. 1) we have no idea of Kakashi’s canon sexual preference so it’s fair game all ways. I scroll past ‘pillow princess kakashi’ content you scroll past mine and leave me tf alone 2) it is ILLIGAL to talk about what a nice ass character’s like Obito and Gai have, and then not let Kakashi fuck them. That’s rude. 3) kakashi doesn’t ‘need to let lose and let someone else be in control’. That’s not even what being a bottom is. He can be the sub and still top his partner ffs

part of canon you think is overhyped

Pein arc. Honestly the only thing i would change is have Naruto actually use Kakashi’s number one lesson to him. Team work.

Also i’d have Iruka make the sacrifice to save Naruto, not Hinata. Hinata was beautiful and her reason’s were solid, but Iruka jumping in to protect Naruto would be beautiful. He’d still get his ass kicked but Naruto losing his cool would make so much more sense because we know how important Iruka is to him.

Also, that little part where Kakashi and Sasuke face off. I think i’d want the fight to be a wee bit longer, and for Kakashi to acknowledge danzo’s death and flat out tell Sasuke he does not care. Man did not give a shit about Danzo and he was not there at all because Sasuke ‘killed the hokage’. In fact, for Kakashi that was probably a gift because he clearly didn’t respect danzo since he fucked off out of the village when it was against the law to,

your favorite part of canon that everyone else ignores

Ohhh that’s hard to choose.

Maybe…. Kakashi turning away from Tsunade trying to give him a mission and walking away to go try and save Naruto and Sasuke.

A lot of people like to act like Kakashi only cared about Sasuke, but he clearly was willing to ignore the Hokage for both of his students and felt responsible for what happened even though it wasn’t his fault. Like the only thing he could have done was stayed behind so the sound four never got to Sasuke, but that would also involve ignoring hokage’s order’s and not going out on a mission

Oh, also him telling Jiraiya off for teaching Naruto the rasangan and telling him to talk to him about using it against friends. People constantly get on his case about chatting with Sasuke about trying to use Chidori on Naruto, but then conveniently forget he was trying to hold jiraiya responsible (it was jiraiya’s responsibility to talk to Naruto at that point. He’d told Kakashi to let him care for Naruto’s training so it was his job to ensure Naruto wasn’t using rasangan against friends)

Oh and JIRAIYA TELLING KAKASHI TO LET HIM TAKE CARE OF TRAINING NARUTO. People act like Kakashi just chose to focus on Sasuke cuz favoritism and ignore that he was being pulled two ways (between sasuke and naruto) until Jiraiya stepped in and told him to focus on Sasuke,

ship you've unwillingly come around to

Other than Yamato and gai (which i’m still meh on) i haven’t really ‘come around’ to any ship.
