Pokémon said bisexual rights 🫵✨✨✨
#fluff binges !!!#treating myself to more Horizons eps since I had a pretty awful past week mentally and need a pick-me-up#I keep smiling so wide while watching this series it's just so lighthearted and sweet#and can get unexpectedly resonant at times (I'd honest to god tear up from Liko's moments early on because right now identity's something--#--I'm deeply struggling with - so seeing her always want to try and find out more about the kind of trainer she wants to be hits close)#this series is comforting to me and I get to enjoy it at my own time and pace 💖💕✨#(that may seem like a superficial thing but I've been through a lot lately aight I'm taking the little joys I can)#(and frankly I've been............... hiding out from other places because I just. need time away from things)#(so let me be silly on my lil blog here this is like a safe space heehaw 💃💃💃)#but anyways Horizons is for the queers amen#I'm not going insane right like . y'all see the queer-coding in other episodes tooSDKJFSJNDFNS#I also say bisexual Orio because of her talking about Friede earlier on there were sparks aiiiight they're cute#pokemon horizons#anipoke#pokeani#orio pokemon

Aypierre just said his mods will ban any idiots in the chat being stupid about the QSMP situation, lmaooo. Absolutely based, get their asses.
#i talk#qsmp talk#I'll be honest. I do not understand the ''Boycott QSMP'' thing#like. if Quackity wasn't doing anything to resolve stuff I'd get it#but. he IS doing stuff#the ccs confirmed he's doing stuff#it feels very much like a:#''Hey we saw you did something wrong and instead of letting you remedy the situation we're going to punish you forever for this.''#''There is no absolution for your sin''#it's frickin weird dude#like don't get me wrong -- I was a freelancer for like... 5 - 7 years?#And I've seen my fair share of awful bosses and terrible power structures + people in power taking advantage of workers#but this just isn't comparable because like I said: Quackity is actually DOING things. He fired the idiots who did stupid stuff#and they're working on doing things for the admins + Egg admins#which once again: was confirmed by the CCs#idk man I just see the whole thing and I'm like ''???'' about it#I think it's just a matter of misinformation + strong emotions + language barriers#plus a side of what I said earlier- ''you made a mistake once which means I get to be an ass to you even if you're trying to fix things''#and in this specific situation that just seems so stupid#advocating for workers rights while getting mad about the owner of the project working on workers rights.#idk man it's mostly Twitter people being stupid but I genuinely almost want to sit down with folks and talk things out#which I will not do because I value my sanity. but I do think a lot of things can be solved with communication#I; however; simply do not have the energy for that#anyhoo that's my two cents and will probably be the last I say on this matter#goodnight y'all I'm EXHAUSTED#For the record even though Q didn't know about what was going on it does suck that it happened#but we can't change the past#not every mistake is fixable or forgivable but this one can be. in my eyes anyways#We'll see how things resolve in the end but it's going in the right direction and that's enough for me to be content for now

(mgv) john house was an alpha, blythe was a beta. house presenting as an omega was another layer of disappointment to john, who didn't bother learning to sympathize with his son. this also led to a small amount of ire from house that he still can't quite shake towards his mother for not understanding how his problems aren't the same as john's. greg knows it's childish and petty, but he's a bitter man, sue him.
#house md#idk when they present and i don't really want think about it to if i'm completely honest#generally is probably around puberty age/little later i guess#some people present earlier/later of course there are always outliers#blythe tried her best but she couldn't relate at all and it showed and thanks to surging unregulated hormones greg resented her 4it at time#just yknow. more bullshit for god's favorite punching bag#john probably tried to stop house from going into heat with the ice baths :/#new presenters can be given drugs to help ease the transition but when house was younger the method was to just let them tough it out#and even if it was an option i'm not sure john would have agreed to it#he'd be more into just giving him suppressants which are like super dangerous especially to youngsters#can severely harm their growth and stunt them physically and socially#mgv

I find it funny how I literally sabotaged my first paralive edit on youtube (it was also a subbed 'mv' so it wasn't even a shitpost). Like I had the video upload and Tumblr post scheduled and everything, but I just had to talk about Hajun being a sussy little bitch on one of Bae's songs earlier that day.
#i had also posted my fanfic earlier in the week so I was just kind of desperate to get all of my socials out there#but also after joining tumblr I think that was an extra “fuck the algorithms I'm gonna do what I want”#'cause I had basically lost all of my knowledge on how to get engagement on social media after that#(even tho I would have been shit either way let's be honest)#but yeah better luck next time#paradox live#paralive#shitpost#kia's posts#kia's shitposts

I'm all about ending chapters based on vibes until I hit a certain threshold. That threshold is 5k.
Could my vibes please get on board with that????
#first draft ch 17 is at 5.1k#and i've consistently been adding anywhere from 1-2k in editing recently#like#what? o.o#i was sometimes barely getting over 2k in the earlier chapters so what the fuck is this shit#that ch 16 split fucked me over just like i was afraid it might 😅#i could be at 4k if i'd've let 16 be over 6k 😂#but then this one would've still been over 5k after edits so i'm looking at another 6k and another split probably#i would say i feared for my pacing but to be perfectly honest my pacing is also vibes so 😅#oh my vibes what are you doing to meeee#writing woes#starlit thoughts#shattered

if I've learned anything from grad school it's to check your sources, and this has proven invaluable in the dozens of instances when I've had an MBA-type try to tell me something about finances or leadership. Case in point:
Firefox serves me clickbaity articles through Pocket, which is fine because I like Firefox. But sometimes an article makes me curious. I'm pretty anal about my finances, and I wondered if this article was, as I suspected, total horseshit, or could potentially benefit me and help me get my spending under control. So let's check the article in question.
It mostly seems like common sense. "...track expenses and income for at least a month before setting a budget...How much money do I have or earn? How much do I want to save?" Basic shit like that. But then I get to this section:
This sounds fucking made up to me. And thankfully, they've provided a source to their claim that "research has repeatedly shown" that writing things down changes behavior. First mistake. What research is this?
Forbes, naturally, my #1 source for absolute dogshit fart-sniffing financial schlock. Forbes is the type of website that guy from high school who constantly posts on linkedin trawls daily for little articles like this that make him feel better about refusing to pay for a decent package for his employees' healthcare (I'm from the United States, a barbaric, conflict-ridden country in the throes of civil unrest, so obsessed with violence that its warlords prioritize weapons over universal medical coverage. I digress). Forbes constantly posts shit like this, and I constantly spend my time at leadership seminars debunking poor consultants who get paid to read these claims credulously. Look at this highlighted text. Does it make sense to you that simply writing your financial goals down would result in a 10x increase in your income? Because if it does, let me make you an offer on this sick ass bridge.
Thankfully, Forbes also makes the mistake of citing their sources. Let's check to see where this hyperlink goes:
SidSavara. I've never heard of this site, but the About section tells me that Sid is "a technology leader who empowers teams to grow into their best selves. He is a life-long learner enjoys developing software, leading teams in delivering mission critical projects, playing guitar and watching football and basketball."
That doesn't mean anything. What are his LinkedIn credentials? With the caveat that anyone can lie on Linkedin, Mr. Savara appears to be a Software Engineer. Which is fine! I'm glad software engineers exist! But Sid's got nothing in his professional history which suggests he knows shit about finance. So I'm already pretty skeptical of his website, which is increasingly looking like a personal fart-huffing blog.
The article itself repeats the credulous claim made in the Forbes story earlier, but this time, provides no link for the 3% story. Mr. Savara is smarter than his colleages at Forbes, it's much wiser to just make shit up.
HOWEVER. I am not the first person to have followed this rabbit hole. Because at the very top of this article, there is a disclaimer.
Uh oh!
Sid's been called out before, and in the follow up to this article, he reveals the truth.
You can guess where this is going.
So to go back to the VERY beginning of this post, both Pocket/Good Housekeeping and Forbes failed to do even the most basic of research, taking the wild claim that writing down your budget may increase your income by 10x on good faith and the word of a(n admittedly honest about his shortcomings) software engineer.
Why did I spend 30 minutes to make a tumblr post about this? Mostly to show off how smart I am, but also to remind folks of just how flimsy any claim on the internet can be. Click those links, follow those sources, and when the sources stop linking, ask why.
#long post#side note- this is one of the reasons i dont cover shit i dont like in my video essays. yall havent seen me angry.

Some soft fluff. He’s basically like a lovesick lost child when you have to leave home without him.
—
You’re halfway through swiping on your lip liner when you hear the soft pad of boots on the hardwood behind you. He’s back earlier than expected, and you feel his presence before he even says anything.
“Didn’t think you’d be home yet,” you say, glancing at him in the mirror. He’s leaned in the doorway, black shirt rolled up to his elbows, forearms crossed as he watches you.
“Wrapped up quicker than planned,” Simon replies. His voice is low, that familiar Northern rasp brushing against your nerves in that way it always does.
You turn slightly, revealing the open back of your dress. “Could you—?” you ask, nodding toward the zipper.
He pushes off the doorframe with a quiet grunt, stepping behind you. You hold your breath. There’s something intimate about asking someone to zip you up—especially him. You feel the air shift when his fingers graze your spine.
He fumbles for a second—warm hands brushing lightly against your skin, the zipper resisting him just enough to be annoying.
“Complicated thing,” he mutters, almost to himself, a tiny scoff under his breath. “Imagine—a bloody military lieutenant, can clear a building in under five minutes, but can’t zip up a dress.”
You laugh under your breath, but it catches when his hand lingers after he finally gets the zipper to slide into place.
He doesn’t move right away. He leans in, pressing a quick kiss to your cheek. Then one to your jaw. Then another to your lips.
“Simon—” you say, through a laugh, as he pecks your mouth again, and again, “Stop, you’re gonna take off all my lipstick.”
“That a threat or a promise?” he murmurs, smirking.
You roll your eyes and gently press your thumb to the corner of his mouth, wiping away the smudge of red that’s transferred to him. “Now you’ve got it on you, too.”
“Y’look good,” he says finally, voice a little rougher now. He drops his hand, but not before letting his fingers brush down your spine like a promise. “Too damn good to be going anywhere, if I’m honest.”
You turn to face him fully, and there’s that half-smile you only ever get in private—tired and a little lovesick. His hand twitches at his side like it wants to reach for you again.
“I’ll be back before midnight,” you offer, teasing.
He huffs. “Not worried about the time. Just… hope your girls appreciate the effort. If they don’t, I’ve got eyes for hire.”
You roll your eyes, but your grin gives you away. “You saying you’ll follow me?”
Simon tilts his head, just slightly. “I’m saying… you look like trouble. And I’ve got a bad habit of keeping trouble close.”
You lean up, brush a kiss to his cheek—lingering just long enough for him to sigh quietly, and then grab your purse.
At the door, you look back once. He hasn’t moved, still standing there with that look. Like he’s memorizing you. Like letting you go tonight costs him something.
“I won’t be gone long,” you say softly.
His eyes don’t leave yours. “You’d better not be.”
And when you finally walk out, you swear you feel his gaze on your back all the way down the hall.

Afterglow
Character: Yoichi Isagi, Meguru Bachira, Hyoma Chigiri, Rin Itoshi, Seishiro Nagi, Reo Mikage, Sae Itoshi, Michael Kaiser
Content: Blue Lock boys after pound town (tiktok trend)
A/N: A request from my one of my fav moots @captainshindo <3
Warnings: Mentions of sex
Yoichi Isagi
You’re sitting across from Isagi in a quiet corner of a late-night restaurant, the hum of low conversations and clinking cutlery filling the space around you. The air is thick with the scent of grilled meat and spices, but all you can focus on is him—slouched in his seat, eyelids heavy, hair still slightly damp from the sweat of what you’d done barely an hour ago.
He looks exhausted.
The kind of exhaustion that settles in your bones after giving everything—after pushing, pulling, and losing yourself completely in someone else. His navy-blue hoodie hangs loosely on his frame, collar stretched just enough to reveal the faintest trace of teeth marks near his collarbone, evidence of the way your lips had claimed him. He probably hasn’t noticed, too busy fighting the drowsiness that keeps dragging his head downward, only for him to snap back up again when his chin nearly meets his chest.
“You look like you’re about to pass out,” you murmur, stirring your drink with a straw, amusement curling at your lips.
He blinks at you, dazed, as if only now remembering where he is.
“I’m fine,” he says, though the hoarseness in his voice betrays him. He shifts in his seat, one hand lazily rubbing at his face before reaching for the glass of water in front of him. His fingers fumble slightly, like even the effort of picking it up is too much.
You bite back a grin. “You sure? You look like you had the life drained out of you.”
At that, a slow, lopsided smile tugs at the corner of his mouth. “I kinda did,” he admits, voice dipping into something softer, something just for you. He leans back, stretching his legs under the table until his foot nudges against yours. “Not that I’m complaining.”
Your face heats up at his words, but you roll your eyes to cover it. “Eat something before you actually collapse.”
He groans but picks up his fork, obedient for once. You watch as he takes a bite, chewing slowly, his gaze flickering to you in between. There’s a quiet intimacy in this shared space, the remnants of passion still lingering between you, woven into the way his shoulders relax and the way his foot stays pressed lightly against yours.
Yeah, he’s tired. But he’s here, with you. And there’s something about that that makes your chest feel warm, like the afterglow hasn’t quite faded yet.
The waiter approaches, setting down a plate of food in front of you both. Isagi lazily thanks him before turning his attention back to you. You notice the way his fingers grip the fork with a little more steadiness now, the small bites he takes as he refuels his drained body. The sight makes you bite back a smirk, he really had no energy left to spare after earlier.
“You’re staring,” he says between bites, eyes flicking up to yours.
“So?” you challenge, resting your chin on your hand.
He swallows, setting his fork down just long enough to rub a hand over his face again. “So, it’s distracting.”
You raise an eyebrow, stifling a laugh. “Distracting from what? Chewing?”
“Yes,” he mutters, the confession dragging a laugh out of you.
“Just admit I wore you out,” you tease, nudging his foot beneath the table.
He exhales a breath that’s almost a laugh, shaking his head. “You already know you did, love.”
The admission hangs in the air between you, making your stomach flip. He doesn’t shy away from it, doesn’t try to cover it up with some cocky remark. He’s just… honest. Open. Your heart does something stupid in your chest, and you quickly focus on your food to keep from letting it show too much.
“God, what was I even thinking of letting you ride? You nearly killed me,” he sighed dramatically.
“Oh, but you enjoyed it,” you teased, a playful smile dancing on your lips.
He raised an eyebrow, a mischievous glint in his eyes. “Hm, well… I might just let you do it again.”
“Oh?” you smirked, leaning in a little closer, intrigued by his sudden change of heart.
“Yeah,” he nodded, “but only after my soul finds its way back into my body,” he joked, and you couldn’t help but laugh.
You catch him stifling a yawn behind his hand, and before you can stop yourself, you let out a quiet chuckle. Then he lets out another yawn, barely covering it with his hand. “I think I’m gonna just pass out here. Wake me up when it’s sunset, yeah?”
You snort, flicking a stray napkin at him. “Not happening. I’m not carrying your heavy ass home.”
“You could try,” he mumbles sleepily, already slouching further into his seat.
You shake your head, watching as his head starts to dip again. “Fine, but if you snore, I’m filming it.”
Meguru Bachira
The restaurant is dimly lit, buzzing with soft chatter and the occasional clatter of dishes. You sit across from Bachira, who is currently melting into the booth like a man who’s just ran a marathon. His cheek is squished against the cushioned backrest, golden eyes barely open as he stares at the menu, though judging by the way his pupils aren’t even tracking the words, you highly doubt he’s actually reading it.
He lets out a long, dramatic sigh and slouches even further, which you thought was physically impossible until now. “M’too tired to read. You pick.” His voice is thick with exhaustion, slow and slurred like he’s seconds from passing out on the table.
You scoff, flipping through the laminated pages. “You’re the one who insisted on coming here.”
“Didn’t think you’d drain my stamina that much before we got here.” he mumbles, stretching his legs under the table until his foot nudges yours.
You roll your eyes, pretending not to feel the warmth creeping up your neck. “Quit being dramatic, you’re acting like you just did a whole workout.”
“I did,” he insists, lifting his head just enough to look at you before flopping back down. “A very, very intense one.”
“You sound proud.”
He grins, not even denying it. “Well, yeah.” Then, he waves his hand. “Give me your hand.”
You arch an eyebrow, but give in, letting him lazily play with your fingers. His thumb brushes absentmindedly over your knuckles, his touch featherlight, but there’s a sort of intimacy to it that makes your stomach do an embarrassing little flip.
“You’re ridiculous,” you murmur.
He pouts. “You love it.”
You do. But you’re not about to give him that satisfaction out loud, so you just shake your head instead.
The waiter comes by, eyeing Bachira with slight concern, probably wondering if they need to call emergency services for the half-conscious man draped over the table like he’s just fought for his life. Bachira somehow musters enough energy to order something simple, though you’re pretty sure he just pointed at a random item on the menu. The moment the waiter leaves, he groans and drops his forehead against the back of your hand, exhaling loudly.
“Don’t fall asleep on me.”
“Mmm,” he hums, muffled against your skin. “No promises.”
You sigh, but your other hand moves on its own, fingers combing through his damp hair, still messy from earlier. He exhales again, this time with a content little sound that makes you freeze because oh no, that was cute.
“You’re so spoiled,” you mutter.
He cracks an eye open, smirking. “By you? Yeah.”
You smack his forehead lightly, and he laughs, though it quickly turns into a yawn.
It doesn’t take long before the food arrives, and you thank the waiter while Bachira blinks at his plate like he’s not sure what it is or how it got there. He picks up his fork, twirls it between his fingers, then—
—immediately drops it with a clatter, staring at his own hand in betrayal.
“Honey,” he says gravely. “I can’t hold things.”
You stare at him. “What.”
“My arms are dead. My fingers? Jelly.” He lifts his hand and wiggles his fingers dramatically. “Look at this. I have no grip strength left.”
“Oh my god.” You stare in disbelief.
“This is your fault.” He insists, and your mind wanders back to how he worked you with his hands for what felt like hours before you got here. You resist the urge to bury your face in your hands at the thought. You broke your man. All for an orgasm. They were great orgasms but still.
“Do you want me to feed you?” You offer, feeling slightly guilty.
He gasps. “Would you?”
You were joking, but now that you see the way his eyes are lighting up, you realize you’ve made a mistake.
Before you can retract your words, he’s already leaning forward, mouth slightly open, waiting.
“…I regret everything.”
“C’mon,” he sing-songs, grinning like an idiot. “Say ‘ahhh’ for me first so I don’t feel weird about it.”
You grab a fry off your plate and shove it into his mouth to shut him up. He hums happily, chewing like a satisfied child.
“This is amazing,” he sighs, slumping even further against the booth. “I should let you ruin my stamina more often.”
You nearly choke on your own food at what he said. You grab a napkin and dramatically press it against your forehead like a distressed Victorian widow. “I can’t do this.”
“Yes, you can.” He nudges your knee with his foot again. “You love taking care of me.”
“Debatable.”
“You’re still feeding me.”
Ugh, he’s right.
He grins triumphantly, but it’s quickly interrupted by another yawn. His eyes are drooping again, and you can already tell he’s not going to last much longer.
“Meguru, if you fall asleep in your food, I will take pictures.”
He waves a lazy hand. “That’s fine, just make sure you get my good angles.”
You stare at him in disbelief before shaking your head, picking up another fry to pop into his mouth before he actually does pass out. Yeah. He’s definitely not making it through this meal awake. You place a chaste kiss on his cheek as he snores.
And honestly? You don’t mind.
Hyoma Chigiri
You’re sitting across from Chigiri in a quiet corner of a late-night restaurant, the air rich with the scent of sizzling meat and freshly baked bread. The dim lighting casts a soft glow over the table, reflecting off his crimson hair, which is slightly disheveled—strands sticking to his damp skin, the aftermath of everything you’d put him through just an hour ago.
He looks done.
Not just tired—wrecked. Like he’s been through a battle and barely made it out alive. His normally graceful posture is completely gone; he’s slumped in his chair, arms sprawled across the table like he physically can’t hold himself up anymore. His long legs stretch out beneath the table, one foot lazily nudging yours as if he can’t even muster the energy for a proper kick.
“You good over there?” you ask, taking a slow sip of your drink, watching him with thinly veiled amusement.
He exhales, blinking at you like you’ve just pulled him out of a deep trance. “I think you ruined me,” he mutters, voice hoarse, thick with exhaustion.
You smirk. “You’re acting like I made you run sprints for three hours straight.”
Chigiri groans, dragging a hand down his face. “That would’ve been easier.”
You chuckle, setting your glass down with a quiet clink. "Oh? Are you saying I’m worse than your training regimen?"
Chigiri gives you a deadpan look, but there’s the faintest trace of a smirk tugging at his lips. "I’m saying I might need a recovery period before I can walk properly again."
You hum in mock consideration, reaching for a fry from the basket between you. "There’s a reason why you stretch before doing stuff. Maybe you should’ve done that"
His ears flush pink, and he exhales sharply, shaking his head. A smirk falls on his lips as he sends you a look. A look that got you two here in the first place.
“Is that why you’re doing alright? Because I stretched you out so good?”
Now it’s your turn to be flustered. “H-Hyoma!”
Well, you can’t deny it. You stammer as he lazily steals one of your fries, though it takes considerable effort, his hand moving slower than usual. You watch as he chews, blinking like he’s on the verge of passing out right then and there.
The restaurant hums around you, the low murmur of conversations blending with the occasional clatter of plates from the kitchen. Outside, the neon lights of the city flicker against the glass windows, casting a soft glow over Chigiri’s already exhausted face.
He stares at his drink for a long moment before frowning. He groans again, tilting his head back against the seat. "I’m not sure I have it in me to get up."
“Maybe you should’ve thought about that before bending me over.” You shrugged, a sly grin on your face as you sipped on your drip.
"I hate you."
"That’s not what you were saying earlier.” You tease, “Should I jog your memory again?”
"Again?" he nearly shouted. "I don't think I can handle that for a while. Give me three to five business days."
“Yeah right, I give it less than twenty-four hours before you’re begging me to let you do me.”
His lips part like he wants to argue, but all he does is sigh, shoulders sinking further into his seat. He doesn't need to say it—you both know the truth. Instead, he rubs his thumb over your hand, lazy and affectionate, before stealing another fry.
Rin Itoshi
You sit across from Rin at the dimly lit restaurant. Your legs feel weak, a pleasant ache lingering in your thighs, but it's nothing compared to the exhaustion practically radiating off Rin.
His teal eyes are half-lidded, and his usually sharp expression is softened by fatigue. He leans against his hand, fingers buried in his dark hair, as he stares at the menu like it’s some unsolvable puzzle. Every now and then, his gaze flickers toward you, as if blaming you for his current state.
“What?” You blink at him stupidly.
Rin exhales through his nose, not dignifying you with a response. Instead, he lets his head rest against the back of the booth, eyes closing for a moment. The rise and fall of his chest is steady, controlled, but you can tell that he’s drained. You did that. Hehe. Wait, oh my god, you did that to him. The thought makes warmth creep up your spine.
“Maybe you should’ve paced yourself,” you tease, flipping through your own menu. “Not my fault you can’t handle a few rounds.”
His eyes snap open, irritation flickering across his face, but there’s no real malice behind it. Just a grudging kind of admiration, hidden beneath layers of stubbornness. “Shut up,” he mutters, voice rough, as if he’s still recovering.
You bite back a laugh. It’s rare to see him like this—unguarded, spent, completely at your mercy in a way that isn’t physical but still intoxicating.
The waiter arrives, and Rin straightens, but there’s a sluggishness to his movements. You order for yourself, then glance at him expectantly. He sighs before muttering something about just getting whatever you’re having.
“Too tired to decide?” you hum, resting your chin on your palm.
Rin glares, but it lacks its usual bite. “Too tired to deal with you,” he corrects, rubbing a hand down his face.
You grin, satisfied, and reach for your glass of water. “I’ll take that as a compliment.”
And from the way Rin looks at you, the faintest smirk tugging at his lips, you know that’s exactly what it was.
You glance over at him, your fingers tapping against your own glass. “So,” you start, breaking the quiet, “how was that game of yours today? You actually manage to score this time?”
His eyes narrow slightly, but the smile on his lips is knowing. “Of course. Not that you’d understand the level of skill it requires.”
You arch a brow, leaning forward a little. “Excuse me? I could totally play circles around you.”
“Sure, you’d be great at running interference. ‘Oh no, I can’t block, I’m too cute, please don’t hurt me!’” he mocks you.
Your eyes narrow, “You’re lucky I’m too tired to slap you.”
Rin winces dramatically, then leans back with a smirk. “I don’t think you could handle me one-on-one. You’ve already proven you’re not great with stamina.”
“Oh? You’re one to talk. Don’t make me remind you how well I can handle my stamina against yours.”
Rin coughs, his face flushing slightly, but he recovers quickly. “You’re insufferable,” he mutters, rubbing the back of his neck.
“I’m insufferable? Is that why you were trench deep in me a few hours ago?” You smirk, taking another sip of your water.
He scowls, but there’s a certain softness behind it. “That’s enough conversation, shut up. I’m exhausted.”
“Maybe you should’ve thought about that before deciding to go for as long as you did.”
Rin’s expression darkens with what could almost be called a glare, but it’s too tired to be truly threatening. “Don’t even start. Do you think you have more endurance than I do?”
“Mhm, I would prove it to you again but,” You lean in a little closer, smirking. “I don’t think you can handle another round of me just yet.”
“You talk a lot for someone who’s too tired to even sit up straight.”
“Well, maybe I just enjoy teasing you.” You lean back.
The waiter comes back, placing your food in front of you. You immediately dig in, savoring the taste. Rin follows suit, though he’s still slower than usual. You catch him glancing at your plate from the corner of your eye, a barely concealed hunger in his gaze.
“Are you still hungry?”
He looks up, and this time, his glare is sharper. “I’m not that weak.”
You smile and slide your plate closer to him, just out of reach. “Sure you’re not.”
Rin narrows his eyes at you, then at the plate. It’s clear he wants it, but his pride’s getting in the way. The tension is palpable as he debates internally, and you can’t help but laugh softly. “Just take it,” you say, amusement coloring your voice.
He glances at you, his lips twitching into a grin. “Fine, I’ll take it, but only because I’m too tired to argue.”
“Ah, see? You do know when to give in,” you say triumphantly, handing it over.
“Don’t make me remind you how easily I can make you give in.” He threatens, but you hope it's a promise.
Seishiro Nagi
It’s a quiet evening at a small, intimate restaurant nestled between two towering buildings. The dim light casts a soft glow over the wooden tables and delicate plates of food. The quiet hum of conversations fills the air, but the two of you are wrapped in a peaceful bubble of exhaustion. You can still feel the lingering heat from earlier, the way his skin pressed against yours, the feeling of his hands tracing patterns along your body.
Seishiro Nagi sits across from you, his disheveled hair falling into his eyes as he rubs at them lazily. His eyes flicker to you briefly, but they don’t seem to fully focus. There’s a soft, tired smile playing on his lips, the kind that lets you know he's content, but at the same time, it's clear he’s almost struggling to stay awake. You can’t help but chuckle softly at his state.
"Hey, Seishiro..." you say, leaning across the table just enough to catch his attention. His eyelids flutter, and he blinks a couple of times, as if trying to summon the energy to keep them open.
"Yeah?" His voice is hoarse, low, and barely audible. It’s clear that he’s fighting sleep, but it doesn’t seem to be working.
“Are you okay?” You ask.
“Mhm,” he replies, his voice raspy. "Just never had someone wear me out quite like you."
Your heart skips a beat at his words. The casual tone in which he speaks holds a sincerity that’s hard to ignore. The two of you had just come from your apartment, tangled up in each other in ways that left you both breathless and sore, and now, here you are, in a cozy little restaurant, trying to gather yourselves.
"Oh, um. You’re not falling asleep, are you?"
He shakes his head slowly, but you can see the effort it takes to do even that. His eyelids slide shut for a brief moment, and you can practically hear the exhaustion in his sigh.
"I'm fine," he mumbles. "Just... really sleepy..." His voice trails off as his head lulls slightly to the side, before he catches himself, blinking rapidly to stay alert. You watch him for a few seconds, amused, as he fights the pull of sleep.
"You sure we should’ve come out to eat?" you ask. "I can’t help but feel like you’re about to face-plant into your food."
"Maybe..." he murmurs, his eyes half-lidded. "But the food here’s good… 'sides, I want to be here with you."
Your stomach fills with butterflies at that, and you feel a warmth spread through your chest. Despite his exhaustion, he’s always thinking of you. He makes sure you’re okay, that you’re happy, even when his own energy is completely drained.
“Okay, but next time, we’re definitely staying in,” you tease, leaning back in your chair. “You look like you could fall asleep any second.”
He smiles lazily, not bothering to fight it. His head drops forward for a brief moment before he jerks back up. "Nah... I’m fine..." But even as he says it, you can hear the faint slurring in his words.
You decide to let him off the hook. The waitress comes by with your food, and Nagi lifts his head slightly as she sets a steaming bowl of ramen in front of him. His eyes widen momentarily at the scent, but they immediately begin to droop again as he lets out another long yawn.
"Ramen," he mutters to himself, poking the noodles half-heartedly with his chopsticks. “S'good, I’m sure. Just... I’m gonna... just eat a bit."
You watch as he takes a few bites, each one slower than the last. His head sways a little as if he’s on the verge of tipping over, and you can’t help but feel a sense of endearment well up inside you. There’s something almost too cute about how he’s always so completely and unapologetically tired.
"Seishiro," you say softly, reaching across the table to gently touch his arm. "C’mon, let’s just go home. You look like you need a nap more than food right now."
He stirs a little at the mention of sleep, finally looking up at you with that same, sleepy smile. "No... I want to... eat it myself..." His voice barely rises above a whisper. But after a few more bites, his resolve crumbles.
“Alright, alright," you say, moving your hand to cup his face. His cheek feels warm under your fingers, the soft skin giving way to the faintest stubble. "You should nap after though. You’ve earned it."
You offer him a gentle smile, one that conveys everything you’re feeling. The tenderness, the affection, the adoration. He closes his eyes at that, his shoulders sinking further into the chair, his body going slack with exhaustion. A few seconds later, he’s practically dozing, his chopsticks still loosely clutched in his hand, hanging precariously near his bowl.
It’s not long before you’re the one gently guiding his head to rest on your shoulder. He lets out a soft, content sigh, his body softening into you like a piece of clay, finally free from the constant pull of the world. You shift your arm around him, letting him lean into you as you pick at your food, savoring the flavors but most of your attention on the sleepy, warm figure next to you.
"How do you always manage to make everything feel so peaceful?" you murmur to him, though he’s half-asleep and doesn’t respond. You don’t need him to. His quiet presence is enough.
Reo Mikage
The quiet hum of the restaurant surrounds you as you sit across from him, your heart still racing from the moments shared just hours ago. The dimly lit space feels cozy, and you can't help but grin at how relaxed Reo looks, his usual sharp demeanor softened by the weariness of the afternoon. Normally, he’s composed of confidence, like a guy who could tell you the meaning of life while simultaneously solving a Rubik's cube. But now? Now, he looks like someone who just tried to run a marathon, got distracted by an ice cream truck, and then took a nap halfway through.
His posture is slouched, his shoulders are practically begging for a pillow, and his eyes are half-lidded with a satisfied haze that matches your own. There's no trace of his usual high-strung self. Instead, there’s a vulnerability in the way he lounges in his chair, as if the very concept of sitting upright is an effort.
He runs a hand through his hair with slow deliberation. You smile, watching him. It's kind of adorable how tired he looks. You’ve always seen him as the guy who has everything under control, but right now? Right now, he’s more like a human noodle.
The waiter places two glasses of water in front of you, his smile polite but with just a hint of curiosity, like they're trying to figure out if the two of you are on a first date or if something more... intimate... just went down. You can’t blame them. Reo looks like he might collapse into a puddle any second, and you’re still glowing like you’ve just won an Olympic medal in... well, let’s say “passionate hugging.”
"Are you alright?" you ask softly, leaning forward just enough for him to hear you. His gaze flickers to meet yours, and a low chuckle rumbles from his chest.
"Can’t believe you’re the one who’s asking me that," he murmurs, his voice rough in the way people sound when they’ve just done something that requires a lot of energy. "I’ve never been so tired in my life."
You can’t help it. The laugh that escapes you is soft, affectionate, and a little too amused.
"I don’t mind," you reply, your tone teasing. "I kind of like seeing you like this."
He raises an eyebrow at that, lips curving into a slow smile, the glint in his eyes now a little more playful. He leans back in his chair like he’s got a question to ask, but it takes him an unusually long time to find the energy to do so.
"I don’t know if I should be flattered or worried that you enjoy this version of me," he mutters, his hand dragging over his jaw like he’s thinking of adding a full-body stretch to the mix but ultimately decides against it.
"You’re cute when you're tired," you say before your brain can catch up. The words slip out like they’re your new favorite outfit. Reo blinks at you for a moment, clearly processing the compliment like someone who’s just been told they’ve won the lottery. And honestly, with that tired smile spreading across his face, he kind of has.
"Is that so?" His voice takes on a slightly deeper, amused tone, as he leans forward just enough that you can feel his presence press down on you. But not enough to touch. He’s definitely holding back, probably saving up that last bit of energy to make it through dinner without literally falling asleep mid-bite.
"Yeah."
"I’m not good at this," he suddenly says, his voice so quiet that it makes you lean in a little.
You blink. "Not good at what?"
"Being tired," he admits, his voice almost sheepish. "I’m always on the go, always thinking, always—" He stops, then laughs, like he’s just realized how absurd the whole thing sounds. "But right now, I don’t even have the energy to make a joke or flirt with you. I’m just... done."
The confession hits you like a slap to the face. This is the Reo Mikage who can talk his way out of almost anything and charm the socks off anyone, yet here he is, admitting that he’s exhausted beyond cognition all because of you.
You let out a laugh, not unkindly. "That’s actually kind of adorable, you know?"
Reo sighs, his hand reaching up to rub his temples like he’s holding onto his last ounce of dignity. "I never thought I’d get to the point where I’m adorable when I’m barely functioning. This is new."
"Okay, maybe next time we can take it slower." You reach across the table and place your hand over his. It’s a small gesture, but there’s something comforting about it. Reo’s gaze softens.
"I’ll take you up on that," he murmurs, his voice laced with a new kind of tenderness. You were already thinking of next time? The thought made him ache between his legs.
Reo is doing his best to keep his eyes open, but honestly, you can tell he’s fighting a losing battle. It’s like watching a cat try to stay awake, but eventually, it just gives in to the nap.
"You’re going to pass out in a restaurant, Reo," you tease him softly, and you can’t help the grin that tugs at your lips.
"I trust you’ll make sure I don’t embarrass myself."
You smile fondly. "No promises."
Reo doesn’t respond. His eyes have long since fluttered shut, and his head starts to tilt back. For now, the world can wait.
Sae Itoshi
It was a quiet evening, the soft hum of chatter from other diners filling the air, but you barely noticed it. Your mind was still swimming from the rush of what had happened only hours ago, the lingering weight of the experience heavy between you and Sae.
The two of you had just finished a rather intense bout of passion in the privacy of your bedroom, and while the fire had simmered down, it had left behind a raw, comfortable silence that felt as thick as the air around you now. You sat across from each other at a small table by the window, Sae's face relaxed into something unfamiliar, softer perhaps, but still radiating that effortless cool. Yet, there was an unmistakable tiredness in his demeanor now, a contrast to the usual energy that typically buzzed off him.
Sae had always been the type to dominate any room, but now, with his legs stretched out beneath the table, his fingers lazily tracing the rim of his glass, there was an undeniable exhaustion in his posture. His usual confidence seemed to have slipped away, replaced with a rare vulnerability. You studied him for a moment, his sharp features softened from the wear of the day, the slight crease between his brows as if he was deep in thought or maybe just too tired to think at all.
You smirked slightly, leaning forward against the table, meeting his eyes. "You alright?" you asked, trying to keep your voice casual. You knew him well enough to know when something wasn’t quite right. His body language wasn’t the usual effortless grace; it was more like someone who had just run a marathon, but at the same time, was reluctant to admit it.
He turned his gaze towards you, blinking slowly as if your voice pulled him out of some trance. His eyes, usually sharp and intense, had softened into a haze of exhaustion, though there was still a playful glint in them.
"Yeah," he muttered, his voice low and almost drawn out, "Just a little tired."
"Oh? Is it from what we did earlier?" The teasing tone was unmistakable, but you couldn't help it. It had been wild. Sae had been insatiable earlier, his hands never still, his mouth hot against your skin, and his energy was something else entirely. He fucked you so deep and good into that matress you thought you we’re melting into it. But now, he was the one who seemed to need a rest.
"Don't remind me," he groaned, leaning back in his chair, closing his eyes for a moment. His usual air of confidence had given way to something much more human, and that made him all the more fascinating. It was almost like he didn’t quite know how to handle it.
The waiter arrived at the table, placing your drinks down with a soft clink of glass. Sae barely acknowledged the server, his eyes still closed, his fingers drumming lazily on the edge of his empty plate. You gave the waiter a polite smile before they left, focusing back on Sae.
"You know, for someone who's so used to pushing limits," you said, leaning in just a little, "you sure look like you're ready to collapse."
He opened one eye, "I could’ve kept going if I wanted to."
You tilted your head, studying him as he let out a sigh, the way his broad shoulders sagged as if carrying an invisible weight. "You sure? You seem pretty out of it."
"I don’t do ‘out of it’," he replied lazily, rubbing his forehead with the back of his hand. It was the kind of response you would have expected from him, but it lacked the bite it usually had.
You leaned back in your chair, arms crossed, unable to hide your amusement. "Yeah, sure."
"You think I'm lying?" He raised an eyebrow, his gaze flickering to yours with a hint of challenge, though the weariness behind it was impossible to ignore.
You shrugged. "Yeah. You look like you’re about to pass out right on the spot.”
"Yeah, well..." Sae trailed off, looking at you as if he were trying to decipher something. He reached out across the table, his fingers brushing lightly against yours. "Guess you wore me out. But I can promise you, I could’ve kept going."
"If you say so, Itoshi."
"Don’t get too cocky now. You’re not the only one who can wear someone out. Should I remind you of what happened on your birthday?" There was still a playfulness there, but it wasn’t quite the same as before.
“S-shut up…” You mutter curtly. Even remembering what happened on your birthday with Sae made your legs ache.
But as you glanced up at him again, you noticed that his eyes were now closed. A little snore escaped his lips, and you couldn’t help but snicker. Sae Itoshi, the unstoppable force, the man who never showed weakness, he was human after all. He could get tired. He could let himself rest. Even if it was slumping over in his chair at some random restaurant.
"Well, I guess I really did wear you out," you whispered, resisting the urge to laugh out loud.
Sae’s eyes fluttered open just enough to send you a sleepy glare. "I’m awake, don’t get cocky," he muttered, but the sleepy tone betrayed him.
“Yes, sir." You teased, taking a sip of your water as you analyzed his features. Oh, how much you adored him.
Michael Kaiser
You lean back in your chair, trying not to giggle too loudly as you glance over at Michael, who’s sitting across from you, looking like he’s about to pass out at any given moment. His hair is disheveled, his shirt slightly untucked, and he’s giving you the most exaggerated, tired expression.
“Are you okay?” you ask, leaning across the table with a soft smile. You trace the rim of your water glass with your fingertips, watching him as he lazily looks up at you.
He blinks a few times, as though the question takes him by surprise. Then, as if processing your words, he lets out a deep sigh, rubbing a hand over his face.
“Yeah… I’m good,” he says, his voice a little hoarse, though you’re not sure if it’s from the aftereffects of your time together or just exhaustion. His gaze drifts to the menu, but it’s clear that he’s not really seeing it.
“Did our earlier activities tire you out?” you muse, tapping your chin.
“How could it not? I had you on that bed for hours.” He shook his head in disbelief at how you expected him to not be exhausted. “Only reason you’re fine is because I let you be pillow princess.”
“Hey, I didn’t tell you to be so rough though, that was done in your own self indulgence.” You narrowed your eyes at him. How dare he try to blame you?
Michael looks up, clearly attempting to muster some strength for a comeback, but all he manages is a weak smile. “You’re lucky you’re cute, Y/n,” he mutters under his breath.
“Are you saying you don’t have it in you for another around?” you ask with a teasing tilt of your head. He stares at you like he’s about to say something, but then his shoulders droop again as if the thought of moving is a monumental task.
“Round two?” he repeats incredulously. “You’ve already broken me. What do you want from me, a medal?”
You chuckle, leaning back in your seat as you give him a playful smirk. “Maybe,” you say before continuing “but, I think you deserve an award for stamina”
Michael scrunches his nose, clearly starting to get embarrassed, but trying to hide it.
“I don’t even know if I remember the last few minutes, Micha, you just kept going. Are you human?” You laugh, taking another sip of your water.
"I came here to eat, not to get all worked up again," he grumbled.
You flashed him a mischievous grin and winked. "Well, maybe you should've been clearer about what you wanted. I did offer you plenty to consume earlier."
"Yeah, and you drained all the energy with it," he shot back, barely holding himself together. His breath came in shallow gasps. "Careful, darling. I can have you teary-eyed and screaming again. Don’t talk your way into something you won't be able to handle."
The thought made you ache between your legs, a burning desire coursing through your body. You had to stop yourself from thinking about it too much, or else you might accidentally kill Kaiser by asking for another round. As much as you wanted it, you knew it would be too much for him in his state.
"Really? You look like you're about to pass out," you said, raising an eyebrow as you studied his flushed face.
"Might," he muttered, his voice thick with exhaustion, but there was still a faint glimmer of a smirk on his lips.
"You know, this is all your fault, right?" you teased, your tone light, but there was a definite edge of playful accusation in your voice.
"What did you say?" His eyes snapped open at your words, narrowing in your direction as if ready to challenge you.
"You didn’t have to be so rough," you shrugged nonchalantly, though the memory of what had just transpired made your pulse quicken. "You did this to yourself."
"As if you'd have accepted anything less from me," he scoffed, his voice hoarse but laced with pride. "Keeping you satisfied is the real workout. The things I do, the way I wreck myself just to make sure you’re pleased..." His words trailed off, and you could feel the smugness in his tone even as he struggled to stay awake.
"Oh please," you teased, leaning closer, your fingers lightly tracing the edge of his jaw. "You think I don’t know how high you get from making me see stars every time you make me come undone?"
A low chuckle rumbled in his chest, but he was already starting to drift. "Hm. I guess we both have our own reasons," he rasped, exhaustion overtaking him as his head lolled to one side, his eyes fluttering closed. You couldn’t help but laugh at how quickly he had given in, how the mighty had fallen. His pride might have been unshakable in the moment, but you had a way of bringing him to his knees. You snapped a quick picture, wanting to capture this rare sight of him defeated and completely fucked past exhaustion.
"Guess we do," you said softly, a fond smile tugging at the corners of your lips as you admired the man who had given you so much yet couldn’t resist teasing you back.
