Hello travelers. Welcome to my writing blog.

*bows* I'm Haru. I'm an 89 liner, INFJ, artist, writer, and someone with a variety of interests. By all means, however, rest and relax as you traverse the various wings to each clan of guardians who reside (write for) here. They are: Ateez, Stray kids, Dreamcatcher, Ace, Kingdom, OneUs (ot5), AleXa, and TXT. I will write other groups and sometimes non idols (if the motivation is there), but I will research first because I don't feel comfortable with anyone underage. I also will not write for people like Kris, Seungri, Himchan, or anyone else who has done horrible things (if I see these in asks, I will not hesitate to block you. You have been warned)

What I will write:

Most genres, aus, and tropes. It varies in BDSM (better to ask than to assume people)

What I won't write for:

Most watersports, scat, anything to do with anyone underage

The lists will continue to grow as time goes on!

If you are looking for fics and want them filtered. Turn on the mature label and not slap it on us or report. Thank you!

These are no way, shape, or form resonate to the actual idols themselves.

I'd appreciate it if you don't plagiarize, steal, alter (ai included folks), translate, or any other ways to my works I created. Thank you!

Putting this here as well. As much as I create my own banners, I also use @cafekitsune creations also out of support and the work they put into them the most! Thank you if you see this!!

The song IDOL by YOASOBI and the DCA boys have been stuck in my head at the same time so I slightly rewrote the English lyrics for IDOL So they'd be DCA themed

Couldn't beat his smile, it stirred up all the media

Secret side, I wanna know it so mysterious

Even that elusive side, part of his controlled area

Complete and perfect

All you say is a bunch of lies

Dear Daycare Attendant, unmatched

What did you do today? What book do you love? Whenever you are bored, tell me, what do you usually do?

I don't do anything

It's a secret, unknown

Any questions you're facing, always acting so vaguely

So unconcerned, although you brightly glow

Any seemingly unveiled secrets are as sweet as candy

Confusing, why, why, why? Essential lie, lie, lie

So, what is your type of gal? Any lover?

So, now, answer this I don't have any idea how I could love anyone, I don't seem to know what it signifies

Cannot realize if it's true or it's a lie

Once again, there's somebody who's fallen for the words and cues

Made them lose their head over you

That emotion melts all hearts, all eyes on you' cause you are perfect, sparkling Daycare Attendant

Unrivaled, will not appear again. It's the brightest star shining, yes, indeed

Using that smiling face, that "clean up" line again

Now, everybody is lured and captivated by you

The movement that you got

The words you vocalize

Although it's untrue, it’s perfected A.i

Right, right, we all know they are very special, yes. We had lost the fight before it started, so impressed

Mister Sun and Moon, we're serving as support to their grace

Cannot tell me everything was because of them

No, it's not right, out of line, how can we not feel jealous that we can't be around, It's not a joke, you know, right? So, I cannot forgive you for that

Completely deny imperfect you that I sight, myself, no pardon allowed. I won't allow anyone if it's not you, strongest of all

That emotion seized all hearts worshiping you

Yes, indeed so strong, it's you, daycare attendant

There cannot be weaknesses to find, the brightest star is residing in you

The gaps and shortcomings, don't show’em

Dammit, dammit

Parts nobody wants to know should remain hidden. One and only, If it's different, no way, no way

Such a true love, it's realest A.i

Showing this smile, my own weapon boiling media. Keeping everything about my secret deep inside

I'm in love with you, my image is built on such a lie

It's the way I know to show my love, without a doubt

Made of metal, my look glowing brightest aqua, right?

Ruby spread onto my hands and eyes where it resides

I sing and dance around look at me, I'm Idol AI

So, lying surely is the greatest kind of love

I recall no one that loved me once before, and I've not been in love with anybody before

Now, the lies I'm told to say, I'm hoping that a day comes when they all become true and I

keep wishing they do

One day, I will hold everything that I pursue, yes, I am so greedy, Sun and Moon Attendant!

So, sincerely, what I'm wishing for, Is to love each of you with all my heart

And so, today, I lie again

The words I follow by inside of me, I'm wishing that one day they come true

Up to this day, I've not been able to let anyone hear me say those meaningful words

I said it at lastI know it's not a lie as I'm voicing these words "I love you."

And I made a picture

#art #fnaf security breach #digital art #dca #artwork #sundrop #the daycare attendant #fnaf daycare attendant #daycare attendent #daycare attendant sun #daycare attendant moon #security breach daycare attendant #fnaf dca #fnaf daycare fandom #yoasobi idol #idol #rewritten lyrics

hey el! how are you? hopefully ur doing alr with school and such but anyways i had this idea of levi from obey me and a reader who was a kpop idol or something similar and how their relationship would play out 👀 idk i just think it's neat thought you would like it :)

hey anon! ty for the request! this was a lot of fun actually it was super cute to think about and write ^^ i did headcanons if that's ok! and i'm doing fine, studying for my ap exams and trying to catch up on work :) hopefully your day is going well and i hope you like the hcs <3

part ii. part iii. part iv. masterlist

leviathan x idol!reader headcanons

ok here we go !!!

you, y/n, also known as vega to your adoring fans, had just been enrolled in R.A.D.

who's vega, you might ask?

you're part of an idol group called galaxea and are the group's main vocalist and lead dancer (and resident moodmaker)

you and your members all have astrology related names and you chose yours, vega, after one of the brightest stars in the sky <3

your group is fairly popular amongst the 3 realms bc you guys are so super duper talented and very well rounded !!! there's nothing you guys can't do and you're always open to experimentation and trying new things which is part of the reason why your group is as popular as it is — you guys always come back better than before

anyways, bc galaxea is an extremely popular idol group amongst the 3 realms, your managers have special makeup designed for every member in your group

spoiler alert: it's magic

a charm was placed on them so that when you weren't wearing the personalized enchanted makeup, nobody would be able to recognize you as a celebrity

it's almost as if you exist as two separate people

tl;dr: nobody knows your actual identity

this is important both for keeping up appearances and to protect you guys' privacy :)

anyways !!! now that we have some backstory, let's continue

it's been a bit of time since you arrived in the devildom and you're steadily growing closer to the boys

they were all apprehensive about your arrival at the house of lamentation but all you had to do was like talk with and smile at them one (1) time and that was it they were pretty much whipped

except for one avatar of envy

this man istg

he probably hasn't had an actual genuine convo with anyone in awhile we all know this

so he's pretty awkward which is a given

he wouldn't admit it but he's actually really curious about you and your background but at the same time he doesn't want to come off as creepy or like a weird pathetic otaku with no social life who totally doesn't know how to talk to people normally

anyways!

he gives you space and just leaves you be for the most part

you two haven't really interacted, whenever you ended up passing each other in the hallways levi was glued to his phone or had his headphones on

to be completely honest, you felt a little nervous to talk to him since you've heard from his brothers that he can be very intense about his hobbies and interests but they won't actually say what they are, probably to let you find out yourself or to embarrass him later on

that, and you think he hates you. like a lot. he refuses to interact with you but in reality this boy is just super nervous :(

sometimes when you're just chilling wherever and drawing in your sketchbook he'll walk past and take a split second to peek and one time he swore he saw you drawing what looked like an idol that he recognized, but he speed walked too fast to tell who it was and now he doesn't wanna walk back because that would be really stupid and obvious and you'd totally find him gross and—

when levi snapped back to reality he was back in his room, probably having subconsciously walked there

he internally groaned, scolding himself for being a coward

he seriously did want to talk to you !!! he just didn't know how :(

he was so nervous over what you might think about his interests (esp bc of how much he got made fun of for them) and he figured you'd enjoy spending time with his brothers better anyways

you were also facing the same dilemma ☠

levi was the only avatar you hadn't properly interacted with (besides belphie, but you didn't even know he existed yet </3). you were pretty close with the others at this point given how it's been a few weeks since you began your stay in the devildom and every time you tried talking to the purple haired boy he ignored you !!! and you didn't know if this was intentional or not or if he really was just that zoned out lmao

one day, however, you guys were finally forced to talk 😌

asmo had ordered a haul of skincare products off of akuzon at the same time levi placed a new manga order, so the avatar of lust asked you if you could go get it for him because it was pretty likely levi just picked up all the packages without reading the labels

"alright, but are you sure? he doesn't… hate me or anything, right?"

"WHAT? are you kidding me?" asmo practically screeched

he could literally see how obvious it was that levi wanted to talk to you but he was just being a stubborn little shit about it and it was physically killing asmo to watch it happen

"no no no. he's just nervous! that's how he normally is. he doesn't take to new people very well since he's pretty reserved, but i'm sure he'd love you once you guys actually had a convo! and if he doesn't, then at least i don't have to share you even more than i already do <3"

a small giggle escaped your lips before you thanked him and went off to go meet your doom

you tried to stay calm but really didn't know what to expect and just hoped for the best

you reached his door and took a breath before gently knocking on it

a few moments passed before you heard any semblance of sound.

"what's the password?"

you blinked in shock. you didn't expect there to be a password, and knowing how practically everyone was banned from levi's room, you figured that it would be useless to ask anyone else for help

so !!! you decided to ignore his statement <3

"um, levi? it's me. asmo asked me to go pick up something from you? i think you took one of his akuzon packages by accident"

levi started internally screaming

he literally almost dropped the controller he was holding

you were here ?! at his room ?!?!? NOW ?!?!?!?

how could he have been so stupid ???

he goes through an error 404 moment rq before rushing to pick up some things off of his floor bc jfc his room was a mess and he did not want you to see that

he grabbed the box he had set down by one of his shelves and stared at it

in all honesty, he had noticed it was addressed to asmodeus a little after he had unboxed his manga, but he really wanted to start reading it asap and felt too embarrassed to go and give the package back almost immediately after he entered his room 😭

he sighed and opened the door wide enough to slip the box through

he heard a quiet "thank you" from the other side before a tiny gasp sounded and his internal alarm started going haywire

he tried to close the door as quickly as possible but then he heard you say "is that an aquarium?"

he froze.

now what?

if he shut the door on you he'd be a jerk and you wouldn't ever talk to him again. on the other hand, he didn't know if you were,,, cultured,,, or not. he assumed you were a normie, but maybe, just maybe, he was wrong?

he sighed and opened the door a little wider for you to clearly see behind him

"yeah, it is. what about it?"

and the moment he saw your eyes light up in awe his heart stopped

later at night he'd shake it off, thinking he was just actually going insane, but he swore in that moment he felt his heart flutter (to his dismay and vast disapproval)

he didn't know what it was exactly but he felt something and that was bad enough as is in his opinion

and when you excitedly asked "is that a demon slayer poster?" as you noticed it hanging on one of his walls, he practically pulled you inside his room

"you — you know what it is?"

"oh, um… yeah! i loved the manga, it was amazing! who's your favourite character? mine are giyuu and nezuko (or whoever you prefer :)"

you could practically feel the excitement radiating off of him and your spirits started to lift

levi let you look around a little and while he didn't want to come off as too enthusiastic, internally he felt so, so happy that someone else shared his interests. now he just had to see how far he could stretch it

you made small comments and squealed excitedly when you recognized certain posters and figurines and asked questions about the ones you didn't know, to which levi would happily provide answers

you teased him a little for all the ruri-chan merch he owned, and the boy just scoffed in response, suddenly a little self conscious about them

and when you gushed about how pretty his room is and said "you're so lucky to be in here all the time!" he knew. that was it. he's done for.

him? lucky? he had never thought that about himself, ever.

and when you turned to look at him, he felt his face flush and he stuttered slightly from embarrassment as a response

he could only hope that the ambience in his room concealed some of the bright pink dusting his skin

you on the other hand?

the light from his aquarium made you glow like a million little stars, and your smile looked like the sun itself had manifested into a single human being

why you, of all people?

this was so stupid. he couldn't believe this was happening.

no wonder his brothers were so soft on you already

but then something caught your attention

there was a poster above his bed that had been hidden by the shadows so it was hard to notice unless you really stared at it for a few seconds after letting your eyes adjust

you decided to walk closer to it and felt your mind go blank.

that was you. as vega. on the poster. with your members.

and when you looked closer, there were aesthetic polaroids, photo cards, and notes with your song lyrics from your different albums surrounding it, like a collage.

while levi's anime merch was an organized chaos and cluttered his room, covering almost every available space, this was neat and meticulously placed.

you turned to him, surprised to see him wide eyed

however, all you got in response were nervous, incomprehensible stammers again

levi sighed before arranging his thoughts into actual words. "l-look, it's a little embarrassing, a guy stanning an idol group like this, but i can't help it! galaxea's music is so good, and the meanings of their songs are really poetic, and their performances are amazing, and their personalities are so genuine and fun, and they're only one of the biggest bands in all of the realms right now! can you blame me?"

hearing him say that made you want to start sobbing (ik i would 😭). he really thought that highly of your group?

unsaid words lingered on the tip of your tongue. part of you wanted to see what would happen if you had told him that you were there on the poster, but you had a contract to honor and an identity to protect

besides, now that you were finally befriending levi, would he then only want to get closer to you because you were an idol he practically worshipped?

the odds were slim, but you had witnessed it too many times to take any chances

besides, messing with him and letting him figure it out himself would be a lot more entertaining 😌

it had been a few moments now, and levi was growing increasingly more embarrassed over his mini tangent. why did he say that? jfc levi way to go y/n definitely thinks you're weird now—

"you listen to them, too?"

and that was it, he might as well have fallen right there /j

/hj

not only were you actually into anime almost just as much as he was (and let's be honest, nobody will ever top his level of otakuness), but you had the same taste in music, too ???

he might as well be dreaming

needless to say, you guys ended up chilling a bit longer and talking about everything and anything you liked until you received a frantic text message from asmo asking about his precious skincare supplies 😭

you jumped up and quickly grabbed the box before apologizing, slightly embarrassed. rushing to get out the door to avoid even more of asmo's wrath, you added a hurried "sorry, i completely forgot about this! i hope asmo won't be mad… well, it was nice getting to talk to you for real! you're pretty cool, you know that? sorry again for this taking so long, i know you were probably busy! if you were playing something, let me know how it goes! anyways, i'll see you later :)"

and with a tiny wave and a small smile, you were gone

levi sat there on the floor, astounded

did that really just happen?

what the fuck

as soon as he knew you were out of earshot he started excitedly shouting and pumping his fist in the air. he actually talked to you !!! and you thought he was cool ??? him, of all people ??? oh my god what was he doing oh no what is this warm and fuzzy feeling make it go away

as for you, well, you expected to get scolded for taking an hour and a half, but you didn't expect asmo to tease you this badly

"huh, y/n. your cheeks sure are flushed! what type of blush do you use? wait, don't tell me…"

"asmo, wait—"

"oh my god what happened what did he do tell me everything"

"i-"

"you were gone for quite a long time, did he really talk that much~? or, judging by your reaction, did you do something el--"

"asmo."

"ok, ok, i get it,,, but i do need to know the details and please tell me you got a picture or video or something i desperately need new blackmail material"

"what?"

"what? i didn't say anything."

asmo never let levi live that down afterwards, yelling "simp" at him whenever they passed each other

where's the lie though 😭

on a different note, that night levi couldn't sleep.

sure, he deals with pretty rough insomnia (which is why he stays up all the time playing games and watching anime — it keeps him occupied and helps pass the time) but he literally was about to scream

his head was pounding. his thoughts were loud and chaotic, and he needed something to quiet it down before he officially lost his mind.

he instinctively looked up at the collage above him before connecting his headphones and shuffling the galaxea playlist he had made specifically for nights like these.

he felt embarrassed, but he kept replaying his interaction with you over and over and over again in his head, analyzing and committing the tiniest details to memory.

the way your hair fell, how you smiled, the sound of your laugh and the light, clear sound of your voice. your presence alone was comforting, and he hoped some of those feelings of safeness and security would stay a little longer just so that he could sleep. but something was… off.

he had never met you before, he was 1000% sure of it.

so then why did you seem so familiar?

talking to you was so much easier than he thought it would be. it felt natural. he was surprisingly relaxed just hanging out with you — any anxiety had almost completely disappeared in your presence.

you felt like sunlight, and even if he hadn't felt the warm rays on his skin in,,, a very long time, there was no other way to describe this feeling.

and he only got that fluffy, warm feeling when he was watching his comfort characters on screen and listening to idol groups he liked, specifically the one he was listening to right now

and as vega's crystalline voice rang out and sang "let's get lost at sea in these cold waves of the universe, as long as we're together, anywhere is home with you," he smiled, thinking that maybe a friend really is what he had been wanting all along. and as he was finally dozing off, he found himself eager for the next day to arrive — something he hadn't felt for as long as he could remember <3

Fic recs part 1

The Intern- https://archiveofourown.org/works/979988/chapters/1929352#main

Armin was convinced that it was the opportunity of a lifetime, but Eren just saw it as just another chance to fail. Nothing good could possibly come out of an internship in a stuffy office at Survey Corporation. Eren would have been content to sit and watch the remainder of his senior year pass him by. However, after one elevator trip, Eren finds himself questioning everything he thought he knew about life and himself.

Tentative Bliss- https://archiveofourown.org/works/1131646/chapters/2286009

In the D/s community, a contract is the agreement between the Dom and sub: It outlines the structure, expectation, rules, and limitations of the temporary relationship. After Eren nervously signs one with his new Dom, Levi, they both have a month to decide if they're right for each other and to see if Eren can fit in the household without clashing with the others. Although, Eren is a little surprised by Armin's kindness and Levi's actual objective...

1994- https://archiveofourown.org/works/875756/chapters/1683367

Before cell phones. Before the Kardashians. Before internet porn. The year is 1994. Eren, Mikasa, and Armin, poor kids from the wrong side of the tracks, have been transferred with the rest of their neighborhood to the posh, uptown Trost High (Home of the Titans). Mikasa and Armin seem to fit in well enough, but Eren isn't quite so lucky. Of course, most of this has to do with Eren's personality. When he accepts a bet to lose his virginity (and actually prove that someone likes him) by the end of the semester, it's hard for him to deny the improbability of winning. After all, the only one he seems to be talking to these days is the weirdly pretty (and just plain weird) goth working at the donut shop down the street...

Louder Than Words- https://archiveofourown.org/works/1810396/chapters/3885151

My boyfriend, Eren Jaeger, disappeared ten days before his seventeenth birthday.

Six months later, he was found again, completely intact save for his mental and emotional scars. Oh, and the fact that he would never be able to speak again.

And so, we all started to rebuild from the debris that had been left in the destruction of our lives.

Little Titan Cafe- https://archiveofourown.org/works/1032582/chapters/2057524#main

Just another cliche AU in which Eren works as a barista in his mother’s café, specializing in latte art. And then there’s Levi, who’s not exactly your typical patron, because, well, he’s blunt and rude (which Eren supposes isn’t that much different from regular customers) but mostly he just confuses Eren’s poor little homosexual heart.

Chasing Summer- https://archiveofourown.org/works/4059769/chapters/9136579

Two more weeks left before Levi Ackerman graduates from high school and leaves the small town of Shiganshina. He can't wait for the moment that he can finally put that dreadful town behind him. But when a Grisha Jaeger becomes the new family doctor, bringing along his ill son that breathes new life into the town he desperately wants to escape, will Levi find a reason to stay?

A Forged Wedding- https://archiveofourown.org/works/1557026/chapters/3301223

Modern AU, based off of the Japanese game: "I... Don't think I heard you right. What did you just ask me, Rivaille?" "I'm asking you to marry me for a month. How did you not hear me right?" (Rated M for later chapters, mentions of other pairings, more warnings inside)

Don’t Let Your guard down- https://archiveofourown.org/works/5440217/chapters/12572078

Eren and his adopted sister were raised in an extremely Christian household and as a result, are very ignorant to the world around them. And there's one big problem with that. Eren is gay and has been hiding it from everyone since he realized it, out of fear of his homophobic father and other people finding out. One day he feels tested religiously when he meets some eccentric people as a result of him drawing attention to himself by exhibiting his athletic abilities. Little does he know, he drew their attention because they are all apart of their school's color guard team and are desperate for a new member. He's hesitant to join, however, it may not be his choice to accept the offer after all.

Trost Landing- https://archiveofourown.org/works/1622420/chapters/3458933

After a fire devastated their apartment, Levi and Eren move into a new housing community on the outskirts of town. However, after a little while, things don't turn out as happily-ever-after as they had planned.

A voice from the rubble- https://archiveofourown.org/works/5014987/chapters/11525746

It all just took 30 seconds. Thirty seconds that kept replaying in my mind over and over again, the details so vivid. Thirty seconds that would change my life forever.

Thirty seconds earlier we had all been safely tucked up in bed. Shiganshina Lodge was my home, my family was visiting for the holidays; it had now become our tomb.

Shiganshina District had been a second home to all of us ever since I was born. I know this place. I know its beauty... I'm now learning its terror.

OR: Eren's trapped in a landslide and Levi's the paramedic that finds him.

Freedom of the press- https://archiveofourown.org/works/3261971/chapters/7113611

Eren is just an ordinary college student, wondering how long he can put off his art projects and if it's possible to live off of only ramen and mac 'n cheese. Oh, and if his medical alert bracelet is really necessary, because honestly, it shouldn't be. His part time jobs as a barista and a photographer for a major newspaper help pay the bills, but when he gets assigned the task of photographing the upcoming professional soccer match, he can't believe his luck. He has been given permission to legally stalk his idol, center forward for the Scouts, Levi Ackerman!

Levi Ackerman is a famous soccer player, and the object of millions of girls' and guys' wet dreams. For Levi, the life of a celebrity is nothing to complain about. He can walk into any bar and leave with his choice of men to take home. And with a sexual appetite that can rival that of a porn star, this is a benefit of stardom he takes full advantage of. The only problem is, it's hard to keep secrets when constantly under a spotlight. What the world doesn't know is that he's gay, and he's determined to keep it that way. Levi struggles to keep his deep, dark secret out of the public knowledge, but a certain green-eyed brat is making that exceptionally difficult.

Both sides of the same coin- https://archiveofourown.org/works/1966659/chapters/4255494

Eren is a werewolf, captured by humans for experiments, and wakes up in a cell that he soon realizes he's sharing with a vampire. The two work together to get out of their unpleasant prison but the price for their freedom may end up being too high. How will they cope with the consequences of the choices they have made?

Help Me Stand- https://archiveofourown.org/works/934319/chapters/1818776

Eren's best childhood friend and high school boyfriend, Armin, dies in a car accident in which Eren had been the one at the wheel. Unable to keep from blaming himself, life itself becomes agonizing for Eren and he turns to the more negative side of coping mechanisms. Eventually, he meets a college student named Levi who seems like he has it all figured out, just to discover that they have more in common than he thought. Modern!AU.

Also, Levi has a motorcycle because it was definitely necessary.

Make You Feel My Love- https://archiveofourown.org/works/4863482/chapters/11146277

Levi is Trost's strongest soldier, he's Captain of the Special Ops Squad and he's also the only chance Trost has to end their long war with Maria.

Eren wasn't happy knowing his whole life that he'd have to be forced into an arranged marriage, but finding out that his fiance is one of the richest, most famous heirs of the modern age wasn't exactly helping. All about the struggles of being forced into a modern day arranged marriage.

And Eren being a little shit in the process. Cause he's a brat.

The Music Room- https://archiveofourown.org/works/5043655/chapters/11596453

Levi Ackerman resides in a facility for the terminally ill, angry and bitter toward the world for being stripped of his life before he's even allowed to live it. He keeps to himself and in fact shuns any kind of social interaction with anyone. That is, until he stumbles upon the music room, inhabited only by a cancer-ridden teenager who's just as lonely as he is.

Leave your Lover- https://archiveofourown.org/works/2062431/chapters/4482963

Levi is a 30 year old divorced Chef who works at his best friend's restaurant.

An ex military Sergeant, Levi lives his life according to a strict routine. One day, his strict schedule is thrown off when a mysterious cat makes it's way into his apartment from the open Balcony. When Levi hears it's owner knocking on his door, he wasn't aware that his life would be turned upside down and all because of this boy standing in his doorway with the biggest, brightest green eyes he'd ever seen and his name is Eren Jaeger.

The story in which Levi doesn't know he's gay and is in denial about it until a certain bright eyed boy moves in next door and steals his heart. The only problem is... he's got a boyfriend.

Comment On... - https://archiveofourown.org/works/7897357

Levi has come a long way since he started writing fanfiction, but there's always been that one reader who's stuck by him since the beginning. A fanartist for his fanwriter who goes by the name of Jaegermeister. After months of talking back and forth in the comments of AO3 one of them finally becomes brave enough to send a message on Tumblr that takes their conversations to a whole new level.

Promises Travel-

https://archiveofourown.org/works/5524034/chapters/12751232

One promise could lead to more.

And for Levi, he intended to keep every one of them no matter where Eren may be.

A Place for Hearts To Rest- https://archiveofourown.org/works/7189850/chapters/16318364

Levi is Eren's captain, and Eren assumed it would always be that way. Captain and subordinate, the way it was meant to be. But, when Eren's heat hits and the two can't resist each other, will the change be for the better, or the worse? Especially with the extraordinary circumstances that follow. There were orders they were meant to follow, rules that were not meant to be broken, and repercussions that would be dire, but no one can withstand the battering of wild instincts indefinitely and even taciturn captains sometimes have slip ups.

Only with the help of their friends are they able to come to terms with the sticky situation they'd managed to get themselves into. But, will it be enough to save them?

Warrior, ii (Thor x Reader)

part i

Summary: Your story is simple, your intentions always good. Odin could not see that, though, and that was your downfall.

A/N: Like I said in the note from last time, I’m taking A LOT of liberties with details. Like I have no idea how long Asgardians actually live, but it was fun to just make that particular part up as I went along!

Tags: @oknstark @httpmcrvel (let me know if you want to be tagged!)

Words: 3,085

~~~

200 years ago, you were exiled from Asgard. The last familiar face you saw was Heimdall’s; his golden eyes were lined with insurmountable sadness as he did Odin’s bidding. He opened the Bifrost and sent you tumbling through space. But, you reminded yourself countless times over the last two centuries, it wasn’t his fault. Heimdall had been a friend.

He had a job to do, that was all.

You were left on Midgard with no way to communicate with Asgard. Heimdall had been ordered to ignore your desperate calls for him, as he was whenever someone was exiled. And to his credit, he did his job well. He’d at least placed you in a field not far from a small Norwegian village. The people that found you, as well as people in the larger cities no longer idolized Odin and Asgard, but at least had some reference from whence you came.

If you ever saw Heimdall again, you would thank him for the ease of your transition into exile. He had to know the the witch trials that had swept Europe only a century and a half before had very little effect on your sudden arrival.

After two weeks on Midgard, you stopped calling for him. You knew you would never see your home again. You would never walk among the golden palace halls, nor bathe in the natural healing springs, train with Lady Sif again, or aid Frigga in decorating the Great Hall for festivals and celebrations. But those were all miniscule when you thought of the two things you loved the most and had lost: Fighting for Asgard, and its Prince.

It would be over 100 years before you could even enlist in any form of military, and by then, you weren’t sure that was the best idea. During the Great War, the Patriarchal systems in place only allowed you to go to war as a nurse. But you’d never been particularly skilled in healing; you were a Warrior of Asgard. Or, at least, you had been.

An advantage of being Asgardian - and therefore ageless, though not immortal - was that you had time to learn. Midgardians didn’t live nearly as long as you did, but they had many things to show you, many inventions to create and share with the world. Over time, you learned to adapt with them and move beyond them, which made it easy for you to settle for a decade in one place doing one trade, then pick up and move to another place to start over again. You’d been a cobbler, a successful harpist in more than one renowned orchestra, what Americans referred to as a lumberjack, a tea trader, a carnival performer (as you were rather good at swallowing your own sword, which Odin had allowed you to keep in your exile - or, perhaps, he had simply not noticed it when he had banished you), a school teacher, and a movie projection operator, among other mindless jobs.

You’d just moved to a quiet town near the Mississippi River, a town with less than 5,000 residents, where each house had plentiful space between it and the next one, when you heard of the Avengers, though they were not a team yet. News of the Iron Man had spread not long before, then the scientist with Gamma radiation poisoning. You’d taken up clockwork when word of Captain America returning came. You’d sold a gorgeous Grandfather with mechanical squirrels that acted chipping away at a tree trunk whenever the hour changed when someone had mentioned that a God had fallen out of the sky in New Mexico.

Your heart did not stop then. There were no specific details about the God, other than he was larger than life (then again, so were you, if you were judging by Midgardian standards) and he’d broken into a government building to retrieve something that he claimed belong to him. It meant very little to you. Midgardians, you’d realized, loved a good alien story. Orson Welles had proved that much in 1938, though this God sounded less like an alien invasion and more like a drunkard with some form of brain damage.

But then, less than two years later, he appeared on television - this time, your heart did stop. The second you saw him throwing Mjølnir at a Chitauri troop, you fell to your knees. You reached for the TV screen, threw your head back, and called for Heimdall for the first time in over a century.

You received no response, except for a small tingling in the back of your neck. It was the kind of feeling you got whenever you knew an answer before a question was posed, when you could accurately predict the way a conversation might go. It was an affirmation. Heimdall had not given up on you, you decided, and he was confirming that, on the screen before you, was the reason you were in exile.

Your beginnings on Asgard were humble. Your father was a magician; he could alter what a small group of people saw. He made his living entertaining Odin and Frigga and their guests in the palace, during the festivals and celebrations you loved as a child. Your mother was a Lady-in-waiting to the Queen who’d chosen to marry below her station for love.

Because of that, Odin always saw your affection for his son as ambitious. He thought you meant to rise above your station through advantageous marriage, to use Thor for his position in life, rather than to respect his heart as he respected yours.

Starting there, however, you’d be getting ahead of yourself.

You spent most of your life in the palace. You had the privilege of your parents’ employment, which allowed you to be educated among the best and brightest of Asgard - including both Thor and Loki. When you weren’t studying history and mathematics, you were play fighting with your childhood friends - Lady Sif, Fandral, Hogun, and Volstagg included - learning to be the warrior you would one day become.

Your affections for Thor started simply, too. His life was full of physical activity, which shaped his body wondrously as you aged. He was witty, a natural leader, and reckless. He had a temper that both terrified you and excited something dark in you. He was unpredictable and suave, or at least he fancied himself that way. As a member of his close circle, you knew he was also pensive when he needed to be, stubborn when he didn’t, and hardheaded. It was nearly impossible to convince him of something when his mind was made up. He was everything you imagined loving until the end of time itself.

He and Sif convinced Odin to allow you to train with your friends, rather than as a troop among the rest of the army. You didn’t think Odin liked that much, but you pretended not to care. As long as you had your friends and your sword, you felt that you could do anything.

Years passed with you fighting at your friends’ sides, bringing Glory to Asgard, and pining for the one man you’d most likely never have. Your mother was planning the winter solstice festival, to which it was custom for couples to attend together. Your feelings for Thor had rooted deep within your being; you followed him like a small animal to its master. There was no one that could compare, but you were sure your feelings were not reciprocated.

Odin had made it clear that Thor was intended for Lady Sif, and it was just as well. She was of noble birth, already situated high in both station and military rank. She was a fierce warrior and your best friend, and you refused to see her as competition for the affections of a man who would, clearly, end up with her anyway. She knew of your feelings and offered apologies often for the complications of your friendship, which at least allowed you to sleep at night.

But Thor asked you to the Winter Solstice festival. He should’ve asked Sif, for they were to be wed not long after, but he didn’t.

Lady Sif is my friend and companion in battle, but that is all he said to your surprised expression at his offer.

But your father… you said, shaking your head. If Odin knew Thor wanted to court you instead of Lady Sif, he’d banish you from the palace, without a doubt.

My father knows nothing of me if he believes I’ll bend to his will he said.

You looked into his lively, wonderful eyes, the bluest ones you’d ever seen. He stared at you with depth and devotion in his gaze, though you weren’t sure what to do with those feelings.

Odin will never allow this, Thor. I am sorry, truly, but I cannot accept-

His fingers brushed yours gently. He’d always been soft with you, always putting on a show of aggressive masculinity when, in reality, his touches were reserved and delicate. If you can tell me that you are rejecting my offer because you do not want me, I will respect your wishes. If, however, you are only declining because of my father, I will only persist.

You knew him well enough to know he was telling the truth. You wanted so badly to accept him, to accompany him to the festival, to see if something came of it afterwards as well. You could see your future in his eyes, where you were cared for, fought beside him on the battlefield and tended to his wounds after with care and love. You saw your children running freely, happily, chasing dreams and stars alike - it didn’t matter whether or not they were royal, but that they were happy.

But none of that would happen if Odin had anything to say about it, and you knew that he did. You felt your eyes fill with tears as you decided to tell him I am sorry, but I do not want you. It was for his good, and for yours. It would save you heartbreak when Odin refused to allow your wedding to commence, or when he refused to accept your children as legitimate heirs to the throne - something that would certainly shake Thor to his core, if it ever came to fruition.

He stared at you for too long, watched as you lost control of the tears falling from your eyes. But then, after a bit, he removed his hand from yours and nodded slowly. I see he said, his voice hoarse with pain. Thank you, (Y/N), for being so frank with me.

Thor and Sif arrived at the festival together, her arm over his, as was custom. But soon after, they separated and kept a friendly distance between them. They laughed and you watched, wondering how he could be so happy when you were so miserable.

Volstagg never strayed far from you - he was the largest of your friends, and had taken it upon himself to protect you if he thought you should need protection. You appreciated him, smiled whenever he told a funny joke, and pretended to listen whenever he told a story you’d already heard or had actively participated in creating.

Odin looked at you as he stood on a dias and announced his son’s betrothal to Sif that night. You nodded and looked at the ground near his feet as the crowd around you roard and cheered. You didn’t know if he’d planned this all along, or if he’d simply seen an opportunity and taken it, but his stare broke your heart. It was the stare of a man getting his way, shoving the rabble out of his house, denying the reality of your feelings for the sake of his kingdom...the kingdom you were sworn go serve. This pairing of two friends who hardly looked comfortable together as a romantic couple in a public setting would follow you to the grave. It was something Odin would always use to remind you of your place in Asgardian life.

One evening a few days later, you were waiting for Sif in her chambers. You were meant to accompany her to a betrothal ceremony in the morning, your only comfort being that Sif was still your friend above everything else. But she was late returning from a meeting, and you began to worry. You paced the room, focusing on a line between pillars by her doors, and you jumped when they flew open toward you.

(Y/N)! Come with me! she said, her face flushed, eyes and hair wild, mouth stretched into a ridiculous smile. She grabbed your arm and pulled you out of the room, across the palace grounds, and into a dark courtyard, far from the watchful eye of Odin.

What’s happening, Sif? you asked. She hushed you, then pushed you into the center of the courtyard, dropped your arm, and turned to run. You went to follow her, but heard a crash of thunder behind you. When you turned he was standing so close, you could feel the heat on his skin. What is the meaning of this, my prince? you asked, curtseying.

I had to see you he said.

You looked up at him, folded your hands together in front of you, and tried to focus on his expression. In the dark, he was difficult to make out.

My Prince, this is not appropriate. You are betrothed to my friend-

I am well aware of the situation he said. I care not.

I do not understand you said.

Sif and I do not love one another he said. I will not marry her, nor will I deny her or myself the ability to choose our own destinies.

You knew not what to say. He stepped closer to you, took your hands in his, and kept his shining eyes on yours.

I love you. I don’t want to be with Sif; I want to be with you.

You told me you would leave the subject alone if I did not want you you said, tearing your gaze from his as you thought of Odin’s golden eyepatch that put a cool exterior on his metallic wrath.

Sif says you love me, too, and she is not in the business of lying or exaggerating to either of us.

Even Gods make mistakes you said, knowing that Sif was not a God, but hoping he would drop the subject all the same.

He did not let go of your hands, and you could not force yourself pull them from him, though his touch was light. You stayed like that for too long, staring at the ground because looking at Thor meant facing the heartbreak you were inflicting on him. It meant succumbing to Odin’s will, to walking away from the man you loved and had grown with. It meant watching as he married someone he did not love and did not love him. It meant fighting beside him all the same, never being able to move past these feelings, staring at one another without ever being able to do anything about it.

I cannot tell if you are more scared of your own heart or of my father he whispered. You heard the strain on his voice, the sadness that filled him the longer you kept your gaze away.

I am not scared for myself you told him, slowly lifting your face to look upon his again. I cannot betray Asgard, or the Allfather. My feelings are irrelevant.

He shook his head violently, his golden hair sweeping across his face. No he said. He is not Asgard. We all are. Denying yourself happiness, neglecting the wishes of your heart, that is betraying Asgard. Just...say what we both know. We will deal with the rest later.

But I am no one you said.

That is the boldest lie I’ve ever been told he responded, his face softening. He let one tear streak across his face, and did not even raise a hand to wipe it away. You are just as much a person as I am. Fandral, Volstagg, Hogun - you and Sif - we are all the same. And it does not matter - I care don’t where you come from, not like my father does. I just want to know that you love me as I do you. Nothing else compares.

You wished he had not said such things, but you did not say so. Your resolve had dissipated, and you were left with nothing but a warm feeling deep inside that pushed you to say I do. I love you, so...so much. You waited for the “but” to come. It never did. With Thor’s assurances, you felt more steady in your truth than ever before. Odin’s threatening glares meant nothing when Thor looked at you as if you were the only star in the night sky. You feared nothing at all as he leaned forward.

May I kiss you? he asked.

You nodded approval, and then he closed the space between you. He brought your hands to his shoulders, then his went to your waist. Even through the heavy dress you wore, you could feel the heat and electricity in his fingers. It was magnificent.

You did not return to Lady Sif’s chambers that night. You snuck away, laughing all the while, your hand in Thor’s, to his quarters, and aided in breaking all the promises he’d ever made to his father about duty and honor.

The next morning, Thor confronted Odin. You accompanied him, and you suffered long stares full of rage and heat from the Allfather. Sif was called forward and readily gave her consent to end the engagement between herself and Thor. By custom more than empathy, Odin allowed it.

But in the middle of that night, after Thor had fallen asleep, a shadow crept through the window and bound you so quickly, you hadn’t had a chance to make a sound or defend yourself. The shadow carried you to Heimdall, and there took the shape of Odin in all his glory.

Insolent girl! I told you I would never allow this tryst to thrive. I hereby exile you from Asgard, from your home and family, on the grounds of treason.

You shook your head and tried to plead for your life, for the life of his son, and for the love you bore him. Odin heard none of it, and you were sent to Midgard with the assurance of never returning.

// BACKDATED ------ 171017 JUST KEEP SWIMMING.

distance makes the heart grow fonder is how the saying goes, and sunyoung didn’t realize the truth within the statement until she moved to seoul, ( somewhat ) far from her parents and brothers. as much as 19 year old sunyoung worrried about whether she would grow detached from her siblings due to the distance, 24 year old sunyoung knew that quite the opposite occurred -- her absence brought them together than apart. junhwan, the youngest at only 15, made it his mission to make sure he wasn’t being forgotten in her life by texting her about anything and everything that he could think of -- the construction of his robots used for fighting, how to speak to girls, memes, updates on their parents, even idols ( something he’s taken an interest of after seeing her on the mgas years ago ).

to her, he was always the brightest star out of the three siblings. sure, he wasn’t as rambunctious and outgoing like her, her other younger brother, and their mom; but he was intelligent. ( who else is part of a robotics team at the age of 15? ) and soon, she would realize that intelligence went far beyond his years.

“don’t take this wrong noona -- i’m so happy to see you, but when are you leaving? you didn’t quit again, right?”

surprise coats her features whenever that question pops up after her fourth day of residing at home, mutedly watching the young boy work on his latest creation from her seat in the garage. while she was expecting for them to be curious of the reasoning of her arrival, the wording was what threw her off. “no, i didn’t quit, i’m only here until friday. i just... needed a break, that’s all.”

“but you “needed a break” last time too and even then you didn’t come home. not saying i don’t believe you... rather, something’s wrong. you’re not even arguing with dad as much as you usually do.”

during the midst of his talk junhwan’s tools are placed back into the toolkit, the robot left forgotten as he drifts to sunyoung with a push of lanky legs in his rolling chair, coming to a halt in front of her to give her a boyish grin. “you can tell me! i promise i won’t tell mom and dad, you know i’m great at keeping secrets!”

it all happens to quickly for sunyoung to register, the fact that he could sense something like that at his age ( especially when she was working so hard to send a sense of normalcy too; she suposes those acting lessons from dream high were starting to wear off ) and she doesn’t know how to respond. she was hoping to schedule this kind of talk with her mom later today, but gazing at how the boy’s eyes were gleaming so innocently at her, and the sudden recolection that it was virtually impossible to say no to him, she feels as if she doesn’t have a choice.

“not a word to anyone?” “zip my lips and throw away the key.”

a hand travels through dark tresses while she lets out a sigh, not knowing where to start, and a couple of beats pass in silence between them as she gathers her thoughts, “i don’t know, jun. i feel like i’m stuck in this self-depreciating mood and i don’t know how to get out of it.”

and he allows her to rant to him. she tells him about her feelings of worthlessness, how she can’t stop comparing herself to the better trainees, how she feels that katie lee made a mistake bringing her back in kt. there’s a focus on not being good enough in her skills and how she always feels like she’s second place, an after thought amongst the crowd. her feelings are flooding, spilling from her mouth and filling up the entire room and all her younger brother does is listen, nodding at the right places with a slight frown on his features until she’s finished; and it’s only then that he speaks up with words of wisdom.

“have you tried turning yourself off and then on again?”

nerd humor is what sunyoung has always called his brand comedy, and his reply comes in the form of a light punch to the arm, although there’s a grin pulling at her lips. “ow, this is abuse, you know! but seriously though, you don’t have to be the best in order to be noticed. or even to be useful.”

“i’ve been researching idols since you went away, and honestly? there’s no guarantee that you’ll even get attention just because you’re the top in your skillset in the group. take chi chi for example -- peach was the most popular member from the get go and was the face of the group because she was pretty, that’s it.” he starts, stretching his growing legs in the expanse between them,

“everyone knew that nara was the best singer due to her ost singles and, you know, just by having ears, but people still paid peach more attention back then. also -- sui can sing well too. nara still outsings her any day any time, but that doesn’t take away from the fact that sui is a good singer. she even got put in that subunit with nara and boreum and ended up getting her own single! you see where i’m getting at?”

and maybe it’s because he’s her baby brother, maybe it’s because he’s bringing up a point that she couldn’t seem to come to during her wallowing, but his words seem to stick to her more than other’s that she’s talked to about this topic, and she can only show that with nods of her head. “just because someone is better than you doesn’t mean that your skills are instantly dog poop. with your training, you’ve become a better singer than mom. does that mean mom is suddenly tone-deaf now? not at all! i’m a teenager and her voice can still calm me down and put me to sleep whenever i’m stressed out. so i don’t think you need to be worrying so much about that.”

“also, two other things: one, a lot of good singers are needed to balance out the ones who can’t sing but are good in other areas -- especially kt -- so compared to them you’ll sound amazing. and two, you’re kind of dumb, noona, and that makes for great entertainment. your character is different than others, no matter how good they are a charming people or whatever. you have a charm all your own too. a stupid and very weird charm, but a charm nonetheless.”

and with those words, it doesn’t take long for the waterworks to start, tears forming in her eyes at a number of things: the fact that junhwan was growing up enough to be able to give her sound advice like this, the touching words about her voice and skills ( kind of ) and the fact that she felt the weight upon her body slowly start to lift away because of his advice. he was right -- she wasn’t the best in kt, nor would ever would be, probably; but there was still value in her being there. junhwan doesn’t pull away whenever she pulls him into a hug while words of thanks are voiced, only returns it because he knows she needs this at the moment -- any other time he would voice his disgust with affection.

“you can’t give up, okay noona? not when i’m doing all this research and cheering you on like this. plus, if you give up, then all the bragging that i’ve done at school about you would be a waste, so. do this for me, at least.”

When The Sun Chases The Moon From The Sky (ch 2)

Sorry for the wait! I wasn't expecting to get such positive reception to a fic I simply wrote on a whim one night and after reading all your responses on AO3 and tumblr, I wanted to take the time to flesh out how I see this AU and how the world of Theia and Selene works.

Thank you everyone for your support! I hope you continue to enjoy.

Day and Night AU is by @beanpots

AO3 Chapter 1

He was not going to see Viktor.

It was twelve hours before the fated meeting time and Yuuri was huddled under the covers of his bed with no intention of leaving anytime soon. How could he have been so naïve? Meet Viktor in the Eos Garden on the full moon? There was no way. Yuuri knew exactly how the scenario would play out: they would meet, Yuuri would embarrass himself by being unable to even form a coherent sentence, and then he’d definitely die on the spot from embarrassment.

No thank you. Not happening.

A soft knock on the bedroom door brought Yuuri out of his thoughts. He was barely able to hear Phichit through the door and the blanket pulled over his head.

“Yuuri! Are you getting ready for your date tonight?”

The king blushed at the question and pulled the blanket tighter himself. Phichit had been ecstatic when he read the note Yuuri had received from Theia’s king and hadn’t stopped talking about it since.

“It’s not a date!” Yuuri corrected him, “And I’m not going...”

“You’re what?”

“I’m not going!”

There was a moment of silence between them before Yuuri heard a sigh come from Phichit’s side of the door.

“As your prime minister, I understand and respect your decision, Your Majesty...” The younger man sounded upset and Yuuri felt a twinge of guilt. He poked his head out of the blanket cocoon to glance over at the door. Maybe he should go talk to him?

The door slammed open and bounced against the wall as Phichit stormed in with a frown. He grabbed an edge of the blanket and practically twirled Yuuri out of it before the king could react.

“As you friend, however, there is no way I’m letting you miss this opportunity,” the younger man declared, tossing the blanket to the other side of the room and placing his hands defiantly on his hips. “You were over the moon about this two weeks ago when Yurio delivered that message from His Grace, you can’t back out now!”

Yuuri blinked up at the Minister of Dusk, unsure how to respond. Phichit wasn’t wrong and they both knew that.

“Look,” Phichit sighed, “You may be nervous but this is a great opportunity for you. You’ve always idolized King Viktor and I know you’ll be kicking yourself later if you decide to stay here. Not to mention it’ll be a casual meeting so it’ll probably go easier without two kingdoms worth of eyes on you as they are at the Galas. But you won’t know unless you go.”

Yuuri held the young man's gaze before sighing and pushing himself off the bed. He walked past the prime minister and out to the window balcony of his room, hearing Phichit follow him.

Due to the magical barrier around Selene, the kingdom never truly saw the sun despite it being midday. The sky was a muted blue that gradually turned to a soft orange color where the barriers of the two kingdoms met and canceled out one another. The court were they held attendance and the Eos Garden were located there.

If Yuuri squinted, he could make out the silhouette of Theia's palace on the horizon. The Kingdom of Light would be bright in the midday sun at this time with people bustling around in the markets and shops. Yuuri had never visited Theia at night but his father, the king before him, had explained the sky over there never truly darkened. Similar to Selene, it would hold a pale blue color through the night until the sun rose again.

“You ever wonder what it's like over there?” Phichit asked softly after a while. He had crossed his arms and leaned them against the railing to gaze out to their sister kingdom. “I’ve heard there are people who are afraid of the dark and have never left the safety of Theia's light.”

Afraid of the dark? Yuuri knew the dark better than anyone and the dangers it held but he had also heard and equal amount of tales of terrible things happening in the light of the sun.

“But,” Phichit continued, “There are also residents of Selene who have never left in fear of what they would see in the light.”

Yuuri stayed quiet, tipping his head down to look at his hands resting on the banister. He understood what Phichit was trying to tell him. As the king of Selene, he had to set an example to his subjects. He needed to have the courage to go face the light and whatever awaited him there. And Viktor was the brightest light of Theia...

“You're too good at your job,” Yuuri finally said with a groan after a few minutes. He had definitely lost this one.

“You’re the one who chose me to be a negotiator,” Phichit wagged a finger in Yuuri’s direction before his face brightened as he turned to his king. “Then you'll go?”

“I'll go.”

Phichit gave a small cheer before taking Yuuri's hands and pulling him back into the room.

“Then let's get started, we haven’t a moment to lose!”

The Eos Garden was filled with the golden light of the setting sun when Yuuri arrived. The garden was a tranquil place that was enjoyed by Theia's and Selene's residents, both kingdoms had contributed foliage and sculptures to decorated the area and give a welcoming sense of unity.

Yuuri lightly tugged at his sleeve as he walked through the garden. “It’s just a casual meet up,” Phichit had insisted while going through Yuuri's closet. “No need to act like it's a formal business exchange.”

In the end, they had decided on the traditional clothes of Yuuri's ancestry; a simple dark blue kimono with a black haori. As soon as he'd slipped them on, stars spilled from his crown down onto the fabric.

When he had originally been crowned, Yuuri had seen it as an overly dramatic flair that didn’t suit him, he wasn’t the flashy type. But as time had passed, he eventually came to accept that being the ruler of Selene meant being the physical embodiment of the night sky so everything he wore would be covered in stars and his choker would always reflect the phase of the moon.

Yuuri’s hands continued to fidget as he approached the reflecting pond located in the middle of the garden. It was the unofficial meeting spot between parties visiting the Eos Garden. It was where Viktor would be.

The pond bounced the light from the setting sun around the area as if it was offering the foliage of the area one last drink of warmth before the cooler night set in. But even with the sun setting and the gold tint on everything, Yuuri's eyes were immediately drawn to the only other figure standing beside the water.

The Radiant King of Theia lived up to his title. His usual platinum hair had a soft, golden sheen in the sunset and he himself held a brilliant glow not unlike the roses from the Solar Garden. He was also dressed in casual attire, Yuuri noticed. He wore a high collar white tunic, the cumulus cloud that usually adorned his neck wrapped around his waist as a belt. The top was untucked, flowing loosely over his fitted red trousers. The golden sun crown still sat atop his head, glowing with the sun.

He still looked every bit a king.

And when those blue eyes met his gaze and those lips turned up in a smile, Yuuri felt his breath hitch and heart skip a beat.

What was he supposed to say? Should he greet him? He should probably say something. And it should probably be something intelligent to distract from the fact he was doing a great imitation of a fish.

He somehow managed to make his voice work, wavering as it was. “I hope I didn't keep you waiting too long, Your Gra-”

“Yuuri!” Viktor cut him off, ignoring any and all formalities, “I'm glad you could make it.”

With a few quick steps, Theia’s king was standing in front of him and Yuuri could subconsciously feel himself shrinking under Viktor’s attention.

“After you returned all of my roses, I was worried you'd brush me off again,” Viktor hummed, eyes hooded and a sly grin forming.

Yuuri blushed deeply at the direct confession. He had only been guessing that Viktor had been the one sending him the flowers daily but hearing the other king confirm it made his stomach flutter.

“Y-yes, well...” Yuuri stammered, trying to find the right words as he looked at everything around them except Viktor. His gaze was too intense, it was like looking directly into the sun. “As I said, they were appreciated but Selene is too harsh an environment for them. They need sunlight to survive and my kingdom has none to offer...”

“Really?” Viktor’s chimed with such a difference in tone, it immediately drew back Yuuri’s attention. The older man had his head tilted and his eyes held a curiosity. “So it is true Selene never sees the sun?”

Yuuri nodded and Viktor seemed even more intrigued so he offered an explanation. “Because of the barrier we have minimal light during the day and mostly rely on the moon as our main light source. Plants that need sunlight die almost instantly so Selene established the Lunar Garden to develop plants capable of taking in moonlight as they would sunlight.”

Talking about Selene was calming in a way. Growing up in the castle, Yuuri had been taught everything there was to know about the kingdom he was to rule one day and reciting everything to an outsider as they casually walked through the Eos Garden was refreshing. It was easy to get used to the luminescent moss used to light pathways and rooms, the neon glowing fish, and even the small festivals they would throw for each full moon. What was commonplace for him was something from a fantastical world to a resident of Theia and Viktor was no exception.

The garden had fallen dark some time ago but Viktor acted as their light guide with the way his being still held the glow of the sun. Yuuri never had an issue navigating the dark being the ruler of the Kingdom of Night but still, he noticed they had drifted together when Viktor’s shoulder brushed against his. Yuuri wondered if Theia’s king could hear his heart still pounding in his chest

“You said Selene holds a festival every full moon?” Viktor inquired, bringing a finger to rest against his lips as he seemed to consider the glowing orb in the sky. “Is one being held tonight?”

“As far as I’m aware, yes.” Yuuri was unsure where the conversation was headed with the question. “The market square vendors are the ones who organize it...”

“I want to see it.”

Yuuri blinked at the words as Viktor smiled brightly down at him. It wasn’t a question. Viktor had every intent on going and Yuuri was going to take him.

“I-it’s nothing like the Eclipse Galas,” Yuuri stammered as he turned his attention to the ground, trying to picture Viktor in such a place was ridiculous. “It's not a fancy event or anything. It's just a monthly gathering for the shop owners to promote seasonal wares. Nobility rarely attends because it's such a small event...”

“Yuuri.”

The way his name rolled off Viktor's tongue in a sound similar to a deep purr sent a shiver down his spine. He nearly jumped out of his skin when he felt warm fingers curl around his hand and tug it in a clear indication to bring his attention back. Mustering up the courage, Yuuri pried his eyes away from the ground and managed to meet Viktor’s gaze. He felt his stomach flutter and he was certain his heart was going to leap out of his chest from the way Viktor was looking at him. Those blue eyes were kind, his smile was genuine, and the hand connecting them gave a gentle squeeze.

“Take pride in your kingdom.”

Yuuri struggled to find his voice, he was certain his face was bright blue from the way he was blushing and there was nothing he could do to hide it. With another tug Viktor pulled him along in the direction of Selene and Yuuri could have sworn his humming almost sounded triumphant.

The market square was bustling with the festival atmosphere. Streamers of sparkling blue, black, and silver dangled paper stars between each lamp post, business owners had moved their wares outside the buildings to attract more attention, and the air was filled with the smell of all assortments of tasty treats.

Yuuri had enjoyed the festivals when he was a child and fondly remembered attending them with Minako acting as his personal escort. Though she was assigned to guard him, she had made his adventures outside the palace walls as fun and exciting as possible. Yuuri couldn't help a small laugh as he watched Viktor be as enthralled as he had once been, seemingly oblivious to status he held among the common folk.

It was rare enough for Yuuri stop by.

It was even rarer for anyone other than nobility to meet Theia's ruler.

It was absolutely unprecedented for both kings of Theia and Selene to be seen in public taking a casual stroll through a festival market.

Viktor seemed to flourish in the attention as he almost bounced to each arrangement of wares while Yuuri followed him and answered any questions of “what does this do?” and “what kind of food is this?” As they walked down the way, each attendant and store owner bowed to them with respectful mutterings of “Your Majesty” and “Your Grace.” Some of the bolder merchants approached them about their products, others offered them free food samples, and almost every child present was staring openly with starry eyes at the shining king.

Yuuri couldn’t blame them, at their age he had held a curiosity about Theia’s heir. Back then, he would don commoner clothes and sneak into the back of the shared court at dawn just to catch a glimpse of a younger Viktor. He had worn his hair longer back then and he had yet to hold the glow of the sun bestowed by Theia’s crown but even so, Yuuri had been drawn to him. The way he stood beside the throne as the chosen heir and how the subjects of Theia respected him as equally as their king of the time; he was the embodiment of regal elegance and Yuuri could have watched him for hours.

And now here he was in Yuuri’s kingdom, smiling and interacting with the common folk as if it were a daily occurrence. Here he was spending his free time with Yuuri; a foreign king in a foreign land.

As much as Yuuri didn’t want to admit it, he didn’t want their evening together to end.

But it had to.

The night would come to an end, the sun would rise, and Viktor would need to return to Theia while Yuuri remained in Selene. It was bittersweet but it was the reality of the situation.

It was a few hours until dawn when they left the market square. One of the vendors had graciously gifted each of the kings with a small glowing crystal charm; one carved into a sun and the other a moon. Yuuri had inwardly wondered if it was an intentional marketing ploy. Viktor was fascinated by how the sun in his hand glowed without a source.

“It’s another version of the luminescent moss we use to for our street posts,” Yuuri offered, holding up his own moon charm to get a better look at it. “It looks like it was dried out, crushed, and then mixed into a clear paint.”

“Selene is amazing,” Viktor smiled at him, causing Yuuri’s heart to skip a beat for the umpteenth time that night. “You have a wonderful kingdom, Yuuri. Thank you for showing it to me.”

There is was again, that shiver at the sound of his name. Yuuri had to look away to hide his blush as he absently worried the charm with his thumb.

“I-it was nothing...”

They walked in silence for the small distance it took to reach the Eos Garden and both of them paused at the border. The sky was already starting to lighten.

Yuuri tried to find the right words to say. What was he supposed to say? What he supposed to say anything at all? Was Viktor just going to walk away and that would be it? Just passing strangers at the Eclipse Galas again?

Viktor was the first to break the tension Yuuri felt growing between them.

“I had fun tonight. I really enjoyed spending time with you.”

“M-me too,” Yuuri said to the ground, his voice was barely above a whisper. “I liked showing you around.”

“And I have a keepsake to remember this night,” Viktor's cheerful tone turned deeper, suggestive. “But there is something else I want...”

Yuuri had no time to move before Viktor was standing in front of him. Before Viktor was taking his hands. Before Viktor was leaning in with that sly grin and those knowing eyes...

Yuuri tensed and closed his eyes as he shrunk into himself a bit. He could feel the coolness of the charms against their pressed palms. He could feel the warmth coming from Viktor's body. He felt the brush of Viktor's hair against his flushed cheek.

And then it was gone.

The warmth, the contact, the closeness...

Yuuri cautiously opened an eye to look at Viktor. The man had stepped back and was grinning playfully at him, holding the moon charm up between his fingers.

“I would much prefer the moon instead of the sun.”

Yuuri blinked down at his hand and sure enough, the sun charm was in his palm.

“You'll be hearing from me soon,” Viktor said with a wink. “I want to know more about Selene and I want to learn everything about you.”

And without another word, the Radiant King turned and headed into the Eos Garden to return to his world of light.

Yuuri watched him go, holding the charm to his chest and feeling his heart beating rapidly. His face was still flushed even after Viktor was out of his sight and he was left wondering what exactly he meant by those words.
