Could I please request fem avatar!child!reader (avatar as in avatar the last Airbender) with the whitebeard pirates?

But the avatar is a myth but one day ace (or any other character/s) is losing battle and reader uses the avatar state to save them but reader ends up fainting from how much energy they used up

And ofc reader has no family or friends to go back to.

I love your writing sm and I hope you're drinking enough water, sleeping enough and eating properly :D

Torturous Training ( Whitebeard pirates x f!child!reader)

A/N . Alright I took the liberty of straying away from the request because I have no idea how the avatar state works or what it really is no matter how much I read so I din’t feel confident in doing that but instead we get Dokucha training her different elements with the crew….so basically I just did the avatar part of the request 😂 I hope yall like it regardless

Reader here is replaced by dokucha which stands for Reader in japanese

Dividers by @/fireflygraphics and @/drinkthesky

“Agh! I don’t get it!!” Dokucha huffs, throwing herself on the ground, much to the older man’s amusement

“GuraGuraGura! What’s wrong, squirt? Giving up so easy?!” he booms, looking down at her defeated form.

“Easy for you to say, Papaw!” She exclaimed, bolting up from the floor and pointing an accusing finger in his direction

“All you have to do is grabby hands, and the earth and air will tremble for you!” she screamed.

“We’ve been going at it for hours, and I haven’t been able to lift even a single pebble,” she whined, stomping her feet.

“You must will the heavens and earth to move for you; you lack the will,” he easily replied

“Hah?” she frowned, dropping herself to the ground once again, crossing her legs as she sat in front of the man, looking up at him, confused.

“What is that supposed to mean? Are you saying I’m not trying hard enough? Because that’s bullshit, Papaw”

“Watch your language,” he grumbled.

“Sorrey”

“I’m saying that we have been training for hours, but not once have you believed the earth or wind would bend to your will.”

“Well, yeah, we have been training for hours, and it hasn’t moved, so why would I expect it to move this time?” She asked confused

“The earth is the foundation of everything, so why would it move for a brat who doesn’t even believe she can move it?!” He bellows

She frowned, thinking over his words, unable to make sense of it.

He narrowed his eyes at this as he activated his devil fruit, causing the earth to tremble and for Dokucha to fall backward, trying to withstand the seismic movement.

“Gurarara! How can you possibly move the earth if you can’t even keep your feet on the ground!! Root Yourself Girl! We will try again.” He laughed

She groaned, standing up and brushing the dirt that had fallen herself on the earthquake as she planted her feet on her ground and tensed her muscles, trying to visualize the land below her, gritting her teeth as she felt his devil fruit begin to move the ground.

As the ground beneath her began to shake uncontrollably she stomped her feet, digging them into the ground to maintain herself standing.

“Gurararara! That’s more like it squirt!” Whitebeard cackled as he deactivated his devil fruit as she slowly opened her eyes and took in the scene in front of her. All around her was the evident aftermath of her father’s devil fruit, with the earth having been terraformed, various points of the ground spiking forward in an attempt to escape the heavy pressure it found itself under. All around her, except the earth below her feet, where she had deeply planted her feet, remained a small platform untouched by the chaos.

“Ha..haHAHAHA I did it!” She hollered, jumping in excitement.

“I did it, Papaw!! I did it!!”

“Don’t get too excited. We are just getting started.”

“Huh?”

“You thought this training would be done when you withstood the power a single finger managed to do?”

“One finger?” She asked as her blood drained from her face at the information

“Should we jump to a hand now since you seemed so sure of yourself?” He asked with a dubious grin on his face

“Like this?” she muttered, trying to imitate the position Namur was currently doing.

“No.”

“No?”

“No.”

“Umm, I’m gonna need more than that, Namur-nii,” she stated hesitantly, watching as the short-spoken fishman let out a grunt, approached her figure, and began moving her limbs into an outward block position.

“Too stiff,” he stated, prying open her tight fists.

“Let go.” He added, stepping back

“Let go? Namur-nii, your instructions are too vague!!” She cried, gaining a huff from the Fishman

“Water is not earth. It is light. Be loose like the water so you can move the water.”

“Umm, like jello?” she questioned, confused, tilting her head as Namur let out a sigh.

“Let it flow. Do not force it.”

She frowned but closed her eyes. Taking a deep breath, she did as he asked, dropping the aggressive movements she had practiced earlier and replacing them with soft movements, making gentle pulling motions as she glided along the ship’s deck.

After hours of straining her body trying to control such a heavy element like earth, these movements felt nice; they felt liberating, and she smiled. Feeling the heaviness on her body slowly leave her as she continued her movements, she let herself free and be pulled by the flow, as her brother had suggested.

“You did it.” She heard her brother’s voice state, causing her to shoot her eyes open, watching in awe at the currents of water that now surrounded her

“Do-

Before Namur could warn her, Dokucha easily guessed what the warning was. She realized that with her movements and concentration broken, nothing was willing the water to move with her anymore, and it shot out in a powerful gust of water….straight into Namur.

“Ha…ha..uh, sorry?” She muttered, watching his drenched form, his frown deepening further than usual, something that would have amused Dokucha had she not been the cause of it, flinching at the glare he sent her way

“I guess water practice is over?” She spoke, chuckling nervously

“Go.”

“Yes sir,” she muttered, quickly scrambling off.

“So are we here because it is quieter, Marco-nii?” she questioned, looking down at the deck, the figures of her brothers down minimized to the size of ants.

“Something like that-yoi.”

“I thought you said I had gotten better at the meditating stuff?” she questioned, looking up at him.

“You have, which is why we will now practice flying-yoi.”

“Really?!” she beamed, laughing gleefully as he let out an affirming hum.

“Are you going to let me write your back?”

“No”

“Oh. Are you going to carry me then?”

“No”

“Huh?” she questioned

“Then h-

She paused her words, taking one good look at the grin on his face and backing away from him as it dawned on her.

“Marco-nii, no way.”

“The bird needs to leave the nest eventually-yoi.” He smiled, walking closer to her

“M-Marco-nii, wait. Let’s think about this: I can help you in the clinic with the paperwork. You have lots of it, yes?”

“I do, but I will prioritize the training of my dear sister above paperwork.”

“Is there anything I can offer you to push this training back?”

“Nope”

“Marco-nii, if you don’t catch me, I will hunt you until the end of times!”

“Yes, yes; now let’s get this started,” he laughed, transforming into his full zoan form as he gave her a nudge, ignoring the glare she gave her as he did

“I’m going to get back at you for this, Marco!” she cried as she jumped from the nest.

“Ace-nii!!” She cried, running to the man

“Wow, there! I wish my subordinates were as excited as you are about training,” he snickered. He grabbed the tween and spun her around, grinning as she let loud giggles escape her at the motion.

“You would be too, after having to train with Papaw and Namur-nii, not to mention the years Marco-nii just scared out of me,” She whined as they both sat down.

“It feels like my arms, legs, and heart are going to fall off,” she muttered, climbing into his lap and smiling when he wrapped his arms around her.

“Well, you do struggle with the other elements more than you do with fire.”

“Can you blame me? Fire comes out so easy, maybe because I don’t have to worry about my limbs falling off or me falling off,” she grinned, lifting a hand and easily igniting it on fire.

“Maybe if I had a logia devil fruit like you, my body wouldn’t hurt as much? You know, with my body made of an element and whatnot.” she voiced absentmindedly, tossing a ball of fire in between her hands.

“It Doesn’t work like that, Dork; I still feel fatigued and pained my body is not always made of fire. Don’t you remember when I first came aboard? Marco had to patch me up multiple times a day when I fought Pops.”

“Papaw is merciless,” she sighed.

“It’s because he cares.”

“I know, but tell my body that,” she groaned, cuddling further into him.

“Alright, alright. Seeing as you’re already good with fire, how about we take a small break today?”

“Yes, please,” she pleaded.

“Alright, want to give the Striker a spin?”

“Yes! But…can it wait? I just need to rest for a little bit.”

“To bed it is!! He exclaimed, shooting up and bringing the girl up with him.

“You’re the best, Ace!” She exclaimed with a tired giggle escaping her as she nuzzled further into him

We somewhat got that fainting scene, ish? I mean she fell asleep from the fatigue so close enough?

note ཀ thank you! im visiting my mom for the holidays so im having an absolute blast!! agh thank you sm youre too kind (,,>ヮ<,,)! im so happy you like my work ദ്ദി(｡•̀ ,<)~✩‧₊ i love writing for troy sm and im always happy knowing people love him as much as me

The party is loud, sounds and smells wafting through the house and assaulting your senses. Chewing on the end of your straw you glance around the living room. Nothing of importance takes your notice. Some girls standing in the corner talking amongst themselves, another group smoking and laughing way too loudly, a few people scattered around doing absolutely nothing, Troy with two girls smiling at something he said-. Sitting up, you zero in on the scene to your right. Now Troy dealt with a lot of people. Something that never bothered you, but something about these two made your blood boil. They were giggling the entire fucking time. Soft brushes of fingertips against biceps. Unblinking, you watch as they disappear into the side room. Finally getting your ass into gear you follow behind them. Entering the room, your face sours immediately.

"Wow, a gram for a hundred fifty? That's like sooo cheap."

Pulling the straw out of your mouth you feign surprise garnering everyone's attention.

"Oh my, I'm sorry, babe. I didn't realize you were in the middle of a transaction."

He blinks over at you as the main bitch gives you a dirty look. Smiling at her, you start to chew on your straw again. Naturally, Troy goes back to the deal, trying to talk it out with them, trying to get it over with. That blonde chick on the other hand decides to start giving attitude.

"Hey, can you make them leave? Isn't this supposed to be, like, confidential?"

"Why would I do that? They live here."

He shakes his head and goes back to counting the money handed to him. The other one groans and goes back to the deal, at least she has some sense. The main one on the other hand seems hell-bent on getting on your nerves. With a steady hand, she reaches out and gently cups Troy's forearm. Giving him a wide smile she thanks him deeply for the great deal. Frowning you watch with narrowed eyes, you're going to kill her. You watch with concealed glee as he simply brushes off her grip. Finishing up by handing her a small baggie, he simply gestures towards the door. The girls huff and this bitch actually tries to continue her flirting. He stares blankly and raises an eyebrow, something strong brewing in those gorgeous baby blues. You watch with pride as his stoic nature finally does something good for your relationship. Noticing her words are dying to tune out words, the evil bitch and her goon finally turn and exit. Not before slamming their shoulders into you and forcing you to stumble back. Shifting your shoulder blades you nibble on your straw before clicking the door closed.

"Hey." Something simple, something calm to grab his attention.

"What?" His voice is snappy, annoyance already brewing on his tongue. You sigh and blink up at him. Frowning you stick the destroyed end of the straw against his chest.

"Those whores were flirting with you and you just let them. If you're tired of me just say that."

"You're so fucking dramatic. I don't have time for this shit. Did you want a refill or are you just here to give me a hard time?"

"I am not dramatic! This is a legitimate concern, Troy. She was touching you. Imagine if you saw my thigh getting all grabbed up by some dude on the couch tonight."

His body tightens at your words and you can see you've made some impact. With a tight jaw, he shakes his head and grips the edge of the large oak table in the middle of the room. Obviously, not a positive impact. Rolling your eyes you begin chewing on your poor straw again. Something about the plastic trapped between your teeth helps calm the rage building inside of you. You know those girls won't give up until the party is long over. Turning you mean to leave the rotten aura filling the room, maybe make your way over to that blonde bitch and give her a little tap. Something quick and painful enough to get her out of your house. With a strong grip, you're stopped in your tracks. Your chewing stops alongside your feet and you twist your neck to look behind you.

"You're not going out there to fight. Don't, I know that look."

Pouting, you look down at your feet in annoyance. Moving your shoulder you mean to shake him off. Sulk your way out of the room and make it a scene later on that night. His grip only tightens and he even has the audacity to grip you up. Pulling you towards his chest you don't even bother trying to look at him.

"What are you doing?"

"Waiting for an apology."

"For what, Troy?"

"Still using my name? You're not going out there until you calm down."

"I am calm. Let me go."

His grip loosens but only enough to move you as he wants. Your thighs are pressed against the smooth wood as he presses against your back. Wiggling, you attempt to remove yourself from him. Annoyance at your predicament rolls off you in waves. His grip finally leaves your forearm and instead places itself against your hips. Both hands hold you in place and you push against the table.

"Troy."

"Wrong."

A simple hand between your shoulder blades and you're facedown against finished wood. Stomping a foot, your arms are pinned behind your back to thwart any more defiance. With his free hand, he easily shoves your jeans down your thighs. Using his knee, he forces your knees to part for him. Fabric scratches your soft skin as your exposed labia is roughly played with. Huffing, you try your hardest to open yourself up. Allow his knee access to your aching clit. After some desperate rutting, his knee makes contact with your clit. Denim feels heavenly as you back yourself against him. It catches onto your clit in the absolute best ways and your soft ohs turn into low whines.

"Troy, your jeans. There's gonna be a wet spot."

"Yeah, let people ask. The fuck do I look like caring?"

His hand leaves your wrists to yank your head back against his chest. Gasping, your skin jumps at the pain in your scalp. Rearing forward your elbow slams into his side on instinct. Oof.

"Pants off. No, all the way. Yeah, now your leg. Uh-huh. Up here. Perfect, baby."

He hoists your leg up and onto the table. A stretch forms in your muscles. Huffing your breath bounces back onto your skin and an uncomfortable heat starts presenting itself. You're presented to him in your entirety. Your pussy pulses in tandem with the sounds coming from his preoccupied hands. The jingle of his belt buckle, the sharp click of his zipper, the rustling of fabric as he freed his cock. You bite your lip in preparation. Something about the waiting always has you clenching. You can feel the tip of his cock push ever so slightly into your warmth. Wetting your bottom lip, you relax as he pushes inch by inch into you. The second he enters you, his balls resting against your thigh, all resolve breaks. Pulling out, he grinds his hips against your plush ass. Slamming his cock into you, he fucks hard and fast. Something to keep you on your toes, and your head swims at the rapid pace. Keeping one hand firmly against the edge of the desk, your other slips uncomfortably against the front of the desk and deft fingers pluck at your clit. Practically clawing at yourself, pleasure fills your limbs like smoke in your lungs. You lose yourself in his noises. The soft whines, the hard panting, how he mumbles your name. God, the way he can't shut up. Clenching down, you can feel your leg start to slip.

"Baby? My leg. I, I can't."

With unwavering silence, he simply rests a hand on the back of your knee. Keeping you positioned, he shifts his angle. Drool makes its way to your cheek, something that would be embarrassing if it didn't mean you weren't getting the smoke knocked out of your lungs. This new angle has your clit pushing against one of the ornate handles. Your hand abandoned to grab at the edge. Despite how uncomfortable the handle was, digging into you with abandon, it gives you consistent relief. The little noises and pleads punched out of you were garbled. Smushed cheeks and fluttering eyes were all that you offered at the moment. The ability to do anything being fucked right out of you. The amount of baby's and please's that exited your lips only fuels his immense ego. Clamping down, you arch back. Your dripping pussy smears against his abdomen. The warmth of his cum pushes you over the edge. Your orgasm is warm and inviting as you squirt, soaking his briefs clear. A few moments pass, the sound of the party loud in the silence. Once you start shifting he pulls away and allows you space to get dressed. Cracking your back, you throw your clothes on and with your phone's camera attempt to fix your smudged makeup and destroyed hair. After minutes of attempting you decide to say fuck it and risk walking to the bathroom looking like you just got railed. Turning to fix up Troy, you find him already fixed and ready to go. His hair falls effortlessly you want to wring his neck. The natural flush of his skin has you already gearing for round two. Taking a quick assessment you realize there's no way you can hide what happened. You're frazzled and his jeans are soaked through, there's no way. He gestures towards the door and you immediately frown, your eyes showing nothing but disgust at the insinuation.

"Sorry."

He places his hand against your shoulder blades. Gently guiding you towards the door he opens it with a click.

"What the fuck do you want?"

Your voice is calm, venom drips off your tongue but your voice is calm. The girl from before is standing in front of you, in the middle of knocking, like it's a goddamn movie. She's alone, her lackey missing. She doesn't even respond, just stares at you two while her mouth catches flies. What does she think this is?

"So, like, are you gonna move or what?"

That breaks her out of it and she backs away. She mumbles some nasty shit under her breath as she pushes past people too high to care. Breaking away from Troy with an obscene kiss, you make your way to the bathroom for a much-needed pee.

[delugyu]

more brainrot feel free not to post this i'm just yappin

beomgyu is soooo in obsessed and possesive and totally has a thing for yn like that man has been obsessed since pt1 bye. makes me wonder if he already kinda subconciously liked yn n didn't really know it himself. 

i cant tell if my fav is pt2 or 3... i rlly wanna know ab yn's feelings for taehyun cus of the fact that she was already asking for advice on how to give head before they even kissed LOL

gyu's heart fluttering at some moments in between his pervy thoughts is everything agh.  ESP THE SCENES THAT FEEL SOO DOMESTIC,,, that grinding scene in pt3 + the aftermath (“…something that urges him to keep you happy...”,  “why can’t this last forever?”) RAAHHH, & the shower scene in pt4?? crying

the way he’s so gentle (even though he, nor i, want him to be😁) and patient and so considerate over "teaching" yn and not just trying to take advantage of her. how  “as much as he wants to go wild and do everything the way he wants, he needs to make sure you’re comfortable. he wants you to be all in on this too." dammit i love him so bad

also didnt mention this before but in pt2 i love that u mentioned him not expecting her to be a pro!!! expectations (or lack of) r a realistic element when it comes to any corruption kink fic– not many writers address that so kudos to u!!! 

in both pt3-4, i love that you included a scene depicting the state of taegyu's friendship post yn (the phone call, and at the bar), it rlly adds to the plot as far as the boys’ friendship.  wondering how many appearances taehyun will get if u have plans on continuing dis... like obvi he already has a significant role, but like actual scenes w him aside from him being merely mentioned. 🤔

"taehyun probably has no clue you were with beomgyu just a few days ago, that you had his dick in your mouth, that you swallowed his cum and behaved so well for him. he wonders if that would piss taehyun off."  😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫😵‍💫 i think about this line a lot. and the fact that not only does he not want taehyun to ever have you like that, but no other man ?? “..the need to make you his and take you from anyone else.”  , “something no man has done to you before. he gets to have all your firsts, he’ll make sure of it. no one else deserves it. no one else could make you feel like he can.”  ,  “he’d make you all his one way or another, fuck you nice every day, make sure you never get the chance to want for another man.” the possessiveness is making me dizzy and feel things fr.

-chompy<3

i’m kissing u on the mouth rn we are making out

gyu is 100% obsessed and possessive, just how i like em 👅 ur right like all yn has to do is bat her lashes at him a little and he’s already toppling over trying not to bust. hehe at the end of p1 gyu reminisces a little on how he used to have a crush on yn, and he thinks briefly that maybe it wasn’t as fleeting of a feeling as he thought it was

i also luv parts 2 and 3 sm, i think 3 takes the cake for me mostly bc of the smut 😭 whew i was in heat or something writing that. LOLLL ok i’m finally gonna give some insiders knowledge on yn’s pov!!! obviously she and tyun aren’t officially together yet, but yn has liked him for some time and wants to impress him when she finally starts hanging out with him more, which is why she asked gyu to help teach her some things. she didn’t plan on letting gyu take her virginity or touch her at all, since she originally only wanted to learn how to make a guy cum. we’ll see more developments on her n tyun in part 5 and 6 <3 however the whole drabble series is written in gyu’s pov, so due to his jealousy issues he’s a little bit of an unreliable narrator (and he already has been). teehee

omg i’m glad someone else likes the little flirty domestic moments as much as me… he’s hard-wired to be in luv with yn he just doesn’t know it yet. ack i’m so crazy about how cute n possessive he is. also yes the grinding scene in p3,,, i don’t revisit my own writings that much but i do find myself coming back to that so much 😵‍💫

hehe i always try to keep in mind while writing these smut scenes that, while gyu is an utterly depraved horndog, he’s also a super sweet dude who genuinely cares about yn. no matter how bad he wants to rough her up and get carnal, his heart is in fact bigger than his dick (we are still on the big dick!gyu agenda tho). also thank youuuu!! i wanted to make sure it was clear that beomgyu yearned for yn without expecting her to be some natural sex goddess. also that he wants her not just cause of this white veil of virginity—even if that part is also hot to him—but because he thinks she’s super attractive as a person. of course, it does help drive his fantasies to know that no one else has touched her like he has lol

the taegyu friendship drama is sooo interesting to me personally LMAO like i love writing it. part 3 was actually originally going to start with a longer, more detailed convo between the boys about yn, but i cut it because i know some people aren’t a fan of seeing “y/n” or “___” in fics. i still mourn that scene from time to time lol it was prime gyu jealousy. i also don’t think i officially gave her pronouns in the drabbles (even tho i use she/her to talk about the character in unofficial posts like this) so i was worried that id be alienating some readers if i suddenly did that. it’s kinda hard to write convos about her without having something for her name or using pronouns LMAO

teehee that line is like peak petty!beomgyu lmfao. i love how annoyed he was throughout the phone call, it was so fun to write. the compilation of quotes of gyu being possessive 😭😭 you are so real

thank u so much seriously messages like this are so valuable to me 🤍🤍🤍 eek i’m so excited that corruption kink gyu isn’t getting boring or tired yet cause i love writing these drabbles soooo much!! don’t worry lol condensing it down to 6 parts is actually me practicing self control cause otherwise it’d be going on til like part 12 with still no piv LMFAOO

take care chompy!!!😚😚😚

#1 :giving random prompts or asking random questions to aruani shippers

OH!! Hi hi! Thank you sm for the ask <3. And I LOVE this! Annie caring for sick Armin!? AGH!

Obviously, I have to do cadets, they are just TOO CUTE!! And... I decided to make this into a small oneshot! I HOPE YOU LIKE!!

This takes place during the training days, wintertime!!

ahem

-----

A chilling snarl rang through the blizzard air outside, threatening to nip at them more than already. The winters are always brutal, but thankfully the fireplace in this cabin provides enough warmth to keep them calm...

Annie didn't know how all of this happened, so fast too... hours ago she was beside her fellow Warriors, but the storm came near instantly, strong, blistering winds. They were powerful enough to push back even a big fellow like Reiner... Which means, poor, petite, and seemingly frail Armin who was tasked to their squad today stood no chance as he was knocked down effortlessly.

She too had almost fallen aback, but Reiner prevented her slip up. The loud gasp of Armin rang so clearly, complimented by a shout of Bertolt as he tried to help the smaller blond from rolling down the hill they just climbed.

Annie heard his cries and as if instincts took over her body, she broke away from Reiner's admittedly friendly gesture, dashing to Armin down the hill...

Now, here she is... alone with Armin as he lay in bed, while she sits in a chair and watches over him. Reiner and Bertolt had already left for help... but they're overreacting, Armin isn't so weak that a cold would kill him.

... Besides, isn't he 'just an island devil'? They both continually told themselves that... so why would they go through the effort to rescue someone so apparently evil?

Annie's icy blue eyes opened, focusing on the resting face of Armin before her, he suffered a few scratches, but nothing that time won't naturally heal. He's wrapped up in every blanket they could manage to find in this cabin, no doubt stored here by the higher ups in the Military. Probably Shadis.

She squinted softly, merely watching the blond haired boy breathe so gently as he slept... he was rendered unconscious when he fell. Armin looks so at peace, so relaxed... so...

Angelic.

How his long, thick locks of hair trail his cheeks, his button nose with a pink tinge... This is no devil, no... she's long since realized that Armin is the opposite of that.

For the warmth that Armin exudes could only come from an angel.

"... Ugh." Annie sighed, lowering her head. She had discarded her winter coat minutes ago, finding her hoodie and the nearby flame to be enough... and of course, the boy before her.

Damn him. When did this stupid crush develop? Why? It's only going to make her future more complicated! Why couldn't she just-

"... A-Annie?"

A stilted breath choked out of her, Annie's vision reconnecting with the soft featured face of the fellow blond... now welcomed by his dark, crystal blue orbs. Armin's eyes were like a hypnotic enigma. Gazing into them causes her to lose sense, rendered unable to easily look away... while he undoubtably stares back, the gears of his brilliance turning.

"Hi..." She muttered, hiding her relieved smile due to his awakening.

The boy blinked curiously, "Hi... w-where are we? A cabin... wh-why am I so... wrapped up?" Armin inquired, noting how hard it is for him to even move his arms, these blanks are tight. And why is Annie sitting on a chair? What happened to Reiner and Bertolt?

"The blizzard outside... you were knocked off your feet and fell down that big hill... by the time I got to you, well, you were already unconscious. So, here we are. You and I. The other two bozos went to look for help but, I think we're okay..." Annie maintained her stoic gaze and almost monotone way of speaking.

She felt her face heat up slightly upon seeing Armin's smile.

"... You're looking after me? Thank you, Annie... that's so nice of you... I-I'm sorry for being a burden." Armin adverted his gaze, his shame apparent.

Huh? Why... "Why are you sorry?" Annie's tone shifted, suddenly softer. The platinum blonde couldn't help but feel bashful at the boy's compliments, calling her 'nice'.

It's a beautiful fantasy to live in for now, after all.

"... Because I'm just a burden. I'm sure you have much better things to do than to... watch over someone like me." Armin smiled weakly, turning his head again and reconnecting with Annie's own frosty irises.

"Don't be a dumbass." Annie deadpanned. She's aware of Armin's insecurities, perhaps even better than his own best friends are. "For one, I have absolutely nothing better to do, because this is what I want to do. You aren't a nuisance. Your name isn't 'Reiner', is it?" She managed a smirk, hoping to ease the boy's nerves.

Armin's eyes glowed lightly, surprise briefly on his face before we smiled again, this time, more confidently. "... Hehe, th-thanks. I really appreciate it, Annie. I-I can feel that I hit my head so... so I think I'll sleep again but- I'm glad you're here." His voice was hushed, delicate, and enriched in genuine gratefulness.

Annie blinked, her eyes had widened upon hearing those words... "... Yeah, don't mention it. Rest up." She shifted her gaze away and to the flames in the fireplace, wanting to hide away. Be it due to her feelings or her guilt for what she is, it was impossible to tell.

Yet, after a few minutes, when she returned her gaze to Armin's resting face. She smiled too.

Perhaps... if a monster watches over an angel, can even she receive forgiveness one day?

"... I'll be here when you wake again, Armin."

AAAAH!!! I hope you don't mind a mini oneshot for this ask! But I felt like doing one! :3

Thank you sm for this ask, and I hope you and others enjoy this x3

I love love LOVED (agh I can't say it enough sorry!!) @swinginspaceagebachelorette 's au of TDWT (≧∇≦) ʃ♡ƪ !! It's specifically a swap au between Alejandro and Sierra, and the way she writes Alejandro is just so endearing to read! He's like a golden retriever that has random knowledge! The fact she lowered the psycho-stalker quality is what helped endear his swap personality especially!! I think I already pestered her in her comment section about his personality and appreciating the heck out of her writing there 😹 I doodled a bunch since I just loved her au sm!!!

But before I start dumping doodles I made from the fic, the link to her fic is here ! Make sure you have an AO3 account before you read of course though!!😸

NOW FOR THE DOODLES MAUHAHAHAHHAHA

This is a scene from the fic ���(^∇^*)! It's from one of the most recent chapters (chapter 29)

Zoom out of the scene lol

I still find it funny and shocking that Heather is able to support the weight of a man over 6 ft on her head 🙀Her head's gotta be made of STEEL! Super scary just how strong it is! Steel is my only conclusion for her head strength.. (Yes I'm not going to acknowledge the shocked Gwen, her issue of the day! she partook in cheating like a gross person and in great irony considering her s1 ordeal with Heather & Trent (* ￣︿￣))

ANYWAYS ONTO THE HC SECTION!!

These hcs are Aleheather centric like the one above since they're cutie patooties in the fic AND it's an Aleheather fic what do u want from me..(～o￣3￣)～

I think it'd be a nice off screen past time that Alejandro info dumps to Heather and she's at least partially listening! The dynamic kind of reminds me of Phineas and Ferb's parents in a sense where the dad infodumps to the mom and she just listens + enjoys it(❁´◡`❁) I LOVE that dynamic btw! It's such an endearing dynamic that to find it in my fav tdi ship is so sweet (to me at least!)

Onto my next hc!

Since Alejandro is taking the place of Sierra in this au, I thought it'd be sweet that he also adopted her hobby of glitter glue crafts. You know who also has a hobby of glitter glue crafts?! HEATHER💥

I'd think in one of Alejandro's off screen infodumps, he talks about his hobby of glitter glue crafts, the techniques and brands related to the aforementioned to Heather! She'd slip out some of her knowledge and love for it, OR she immediately starts rambling back about glitter glue crafts!!

THAT'S RIGHT BABY ( •̀ ω •́ ) !

Swap!Aleheather bonding over GLITTER GLUE CRAFTS 💥💥Ugh just how much more cute can you get with that headcanon?!

Another hc incoming!!

Since Heather always has her hair up in a ponytail in the main series, I thought a nice way to show her trust is with her hair! In general her hair has always been something special to her, that's why she fought for a wig in season 2. Since an AMAZING amount of value is placed on her hair, her showing her trust to Alejandro through her hair would be a nice way to visually show she trusts him! Alejandro basically the only genuine bond she's shown to make in the series, canon and in the fic, so I think the swap hcs make it just all the more sweet (/▽＼) !! In a way, since to Swap-ejandro Heather is just a celebrity crush, this sort of interaction deepens their relationship and his feelings beyond just a celeb crush (❁´◡`❁)

NOW FOR THE LAST HC!

This one isn't an Aleheather hc, but moreso a hc focused on Swap-ejandro's appearance! I think that as a trade off, he's not as physically built as canon Alejandro but instead taller compared to him (which is scary considering canonically Alejandro is 6 ft..) Since he's in the place of Sierra in this AU, he probably has enough strength to fight off baboons, he probably just has a hidden build! In general, Sierra and Alejandro in this AU had their skills and personalities swapped, so as a result their backstories technically were too with some small tweaks! I think this AU has been fun to make a bunch of hcs in, congrats if u got to the end of me convulsively info dumping about my hcs on the awesome au (lll￢ω￢) !

Full credits to the author man! She's mega talented! Please support @swinginspaceagebachelorette's work and any future works from her! o(〃＾▽＾〃)o

Signing off, hope this reaches the right audience!

And so I return lol. Anyway, I came here to talk about Honey and Tangerines because I read it over the Summer and man does it hit hard.

The dynamics between the characters are so ashdhfjgjt- but most of all I think it's the reunion between them that really just makes me happy. It's so sweet. Wil not unpacking all his shit is so in character for him btw. I remember audibly laughing at that. Like of course not, why would he? The way Tommy's art is described is actually so fun to imagine. It's such a unique sounding style and the aesthetic of it? Oooh. If you don't mind me asking, how'd you come up with the idea of his art being that way?

The dancing scenes?? The happiness of the characters practically radiates from your words. They honestly remind me of one night with a younger cousin of mine where we danced around in her room for awhile. They really do create that vibe of happiness and bonding between the characters. Agh.

Also the friend group. Love all them. Such cool friends. I need a friend group like this, this is my goal. lollll The playlist for this fic goes so hard. It was my go to playlist for doing my hw when school started again lol. I took so many songs from it that I listen to all the time now. Not only that, but the songs match the vibes of the fic so well??? Man. Anyway, my point is, this fic is so fucking good in all aspects. I love it sm. <3 - 🪷

aaaa honey and tangerines my beloved!!! I'm so glad you enjoyed the fic I love that one so much

I'll be honest I don't remember exactly how I came up with tommy's art designs? I think I was just trying to imagine what kind of art he would do and I wanted it to be a bit 'outside of the box' and also match some kind of character representations etc etc so I thought of him doing object head type drawings and really liked it. I'm not an artist myself but I get ideas for drawings a LOT which is very frustrating for me since they can only live in my head unless I find a way to translate them into words. I don't have the patience to learn how to draw (the few times I've tried I've gotten really frustrated when it doesn't look how I want it to because I'm very much a perfectionist about it) so this is how the art ideas I have manifests lol

ahhh I'm so glad you can feel the happiness in the dancing scenes. it was incredibly self indulgent on my end to include so many of those but I'm allowed a little self indulgence from time to time. I feel like one of the happiest experiences you can have is doing a silly little dance with a loved one

(here's a secret: I also wish I had a friend group like this irl lol this was wish fulfillment for me)

I'm so glad you like the playlist!!! tbh out of all the fic playlists I've ever made I really feel like the honey and tangerines one is one of if not the best out of all of them. idk what I was on when I made it I just managed to nab all the perfect songs for the vibe I was trying to go for

I'm so happy you enjoyed tysm <333

[strawbeii]

JUST SAW SONIC 3 !!!

IT WAS SO GOOD AAA!!! I LOVED IT SM SJAKFHKJAFAVN

im so happy with how they portrayed shadow!!! AND MARIAAA 😭😭 IM SO PSYCHED UP AGH IT WAS AMAZING AND THE POST CREDIT SCENES? HELLOOOOO????? AJSDJAKD

OMFG AND DON'T GET ME STARTED BC WHEN I HEARD LIVE AND LEARN I LITERALLY COMBUSTED LIKE I JUMPED FROM MY SEAT

[oddinary4bts]

people are so rude to jk what the fuck 😭 everyone goes on and on abt his mistakes but never talks about oc's mistake on not contacting him for months AND calling it a mistake to tae.

jk didnt even do big of a mistake in the first place. its all js miscommunication and misunderstanding.

sleeping with lisa was a mistake bc they felt it was forced and jk wasnt feeling her like that but it wasnt wrong in any way, he isnt entitled to be loyal to someone he's not dating, he was caring abt his friend by not telling her secret and than respectfully backing off oc when she said she doesnt wanna be w him anymore.

I feel so so super bad for jk i hope his mental health becomes better asap & oc helps comforts him bc my baby is going through so much ☹️ he needs oc to give a big hug and tell that its all gonna be okay 🫂 i need to have a soft fluff scene of them asap 🥹

but that was great ella! i'm very happy with chapter 14, they talked and even though it ended on bad terms and they still have a lot to figure out, oc and jk will be there for each other anyway right? and this chapter showed us how jk cares about her regardless of her feelings and he was looking out for her sm when they were at the gym ☹️ agh i love jk i feel so so bad he's going through all this stress and depression. but oc is the cureeee hehe

AND YAYAY we finally had jk and oc confessing AAAAND feeling each other up after ages 😼

HELL YEAH THEY CONFESSED AND MADE LOVE!!! Jungkook indeed needs a big hug from OC🥹 (and he will get it🤭)

[anachronistic-falsehood]

UGHGHGH FUCK YOUR TAGS DUDE. I FORGOT ABOUT BEAUTY OF DECAY POOL SCENE. I LOVE U ANNIHILATION POOL SCENE obv do not rush urself but when/if u ever write that scene just know i will be melting into a puddle and screaming and eating fiberglass its gonna be so good

AGH BEAUTY OF DECAY POOL SCENE i have to write that. i have to finish writing it oh my god it's RIGHT FUCKING THERE in my documents i need 2 keep going with it. it just takes a very specific mood for me to work on that fic bc it's a v emotional au and also i have to have the movie playing at the same time so it's like double the feelings. annihilation u drive me fucking crazy insane i love it sm but i can't touch it if i am even remotely in a wrong mood for it. IT WILL GET DONE THOUGH I PROMMY I HAVE PLANS >:3

[ayatoscupid]

1 and 11 and 17!! :D

thank u sm for the ask aaaa!! 🩷 ykw i’ll bite the bullet and answer for.. for…… d…… d.an heng. since he’s such a new and out-of-nowhere f/o i will probably be a bit more incoherent but good god i am TRYING

1. Gush about your f/o’s sense of style/fashion!

this is less about fashion but his colour palette is just soooo so pretty!! it suits him so well and ahgudhkd.. even before i started really liking him i thought he was quite pretty!! and his visual themes were gorgeous to me, he still has one of the prettiest bursts to me in the game, even if more simple compared to recent ones (for the love of god look at f.u xuan’s leaked one). his burst was what made me so excited abt the visual quality of the game back in beta!!

as for his fashion….. ahguahighsjfhdh@;£:&/£!!!! yeah. Hes pretty. even if the two zippers at the front of his collar are so silly (seriously why are they there) his outfit is very pretty n fitting for him. i dont wanna talk about y.inyue jun. thank uou.

17. Gush about how talented your F/O is!

i’ll answer 11 last bcs i’ll be talking about spoilers!! ummmm. he’s. ooo i wanna gush abt him with spoilers but i’ll try my best not to!!!! anyway he’s v strong and skilful with his spear cloud-piercer (i cant believe he kept that name but also i can) but he’s also very well-read, given he’s the archivist of the express!! ask him anything related to the data bank and he can give you answers. he’s also v organised with it and bookmarks things t.railblazer might want to read if they ever visit. he says to ask h.imeko or w.elt if they ever have any questions but he’s very smart too!! let me ask him instead!! (ok tbf idk if this is a talent but let me gush anyway)

11. Gush about your favorite chapter/book/episode/scene etc. your F/O is in!

ok so the main reason why i started liking him so much in the first place was getting to know his past reincarnation as yyj and how he feels about it and his development(?) from it so. i’ll put this under the cut

the fact that he’s someone so.. somewhat rooted in the present, and has moved on completely from his past reincarnation as yinyue jun/dan feng is just? really admirable to me?? he was so firm in saying that he is not dan feng anymore and he won’t let dan feng’s past hang over him. and he’s right- he really isn’t dan feng anymore and the fact that he’s so self assured made me admire him a lot.

his conversation with jing yuan was so tense but bittersweet, and while i can tell jing yuan had some mixed feelings about it (i imagine he saw dan feng as a dear friend.. or more, and seeing him again—sorta—only for him to say that he is not that friend anymore, n being told that wld hurt obviously), he was ultimately very happy that dan heng choose to leave it behind and really. move on to a new life with his found family in the express. and i’m also rly proud n happy of dan heng for being so….. so Agh. i can’t explain. so assured!! it’s so nice to see.

i can only imagine how hard it wouldve been to get to that stage- but that scene. that conversation with jing yuan where he firmly tells him that he will not walk in dan feng’s shadow anymore was what made me start liking him so much. it made me quite emotional ngl

but also that scene where he was forcibly turned into yinyue jun and the one whr revealed the dragon palace (with samudrartha playing in the bg) were so cool n hype i just ghdufhekgleklejf;@:£&/

[vilevampire]

Hi! I don't think this is really gonna be a proper question, I've just got Iruma on the brain rn and my favourite part of it is the characters. I just love (nearly all) of them sm. Is it ok if I rant abt them? You can just ignore this ask I don't want to be a bother adlfslfwnkffhd

My top 3 in no particular order are Kalego, Opera and Purson. Everytime I see them I just get excited I love them sm. Kalego's got probably my favourite design out of everyone, I love how cool he is, I love how he treats the Misfits harshly but he does actually care about them and wants them to succeed. (When I was watching the episodes I somehow skipped on the one where he visits all the student's houses. I didn't notice until I finished S3 aha)

Opera is also really cool. I love that even though Kalego acts tough all the time he's kind of scared of Opera. (that whole thing was a lot clearer after I watched the skipped episode jhljkdsbgk). Not sure how else to put into words how much I love them atm but I do. They're great. Just got to the bit in the manga where they're a teacher at Babyls and teaches the misfits non-verbal magic.

And Purson, I liked him before I even read his story. Only really started to notice him in the intro of S2, but didn't pick up on every time he was on screen. I rewatched a bunch of clips now and it's fun seeing him in the background. I relate to Purson so much it's agh. I always was quiet in my class and rarely anyone interacted with me or noticed me. I liked that most of the time, but there were times I wanted to be noticed for what I can do, but at the same time I don't want the spotlight directly at me. Also Purson being really quiet all the time then when talked to he just talks a lot about so many different things at once is just me. I was so mad when that evil demon guy popped both of his balloons in the heartbreaker arc he was working so hard I so wanted him to get through aslnsdfdfsg

I know you've posted a lot about a lot of different characters, but who'd you say are your top favourites? or does that change a lot?

rambling is always welcome here !!! especially if it's abt mairuma. make urself at home

I love the characters sm too, especially the misfits. (on the topic of the kalego visiting the misfits' homes episode, everytime I think abt that episode I rmr how allocer's scene was the ONLY ONE that had NO dialogue. it was just a still frame sliding across the screen. fml)

opera is a pretty popular character, I mostly appreciate them for their nyanbinary catperson swag, and how sweet their found family relationship w/ sully and iruma is.

I think I picked up on purson's existence early on in s1 (it's funny to re-watch and spot him in the crowd). he's a favorite of mine too. though actually I think most ppl in the fandom love purson and the music festival arc. like everybody unanimously agrees that it's the best arc hghjhughj side note abt purson but this mf is the most not-nonbinary nonbinary character I've ever seen I s2g I kept almost accidentally they/them'ing him sooo much when I joined the fandom a while back like he just does not register to me as a boy. the no biney vibes r just off the charts

ngl I barely rmr shit from the heartbreaker bc I read most of it over a year ago while those chapters were still coming out, the most I rmr is jazz being tortured on the cross (what does nishi fucking have against him to make him suffer so much THE OTHER CHARACTERS DON'T GO THRU NEARLY AS MUCH SHIT AS HE DOES) and then winning bc of allocer and not even getting a rank up for the LITERAL TORTURE he went through. like r you fucking kidding me what the fuck was the point of all that then ?????? fucking rigged

I was so sad for purson too aghhh he tried so hard my boy did his best but he got fucked over by atori >:((

as for which characters r my favorites, I think it's pretty easy to tell just from looking at my acc but robin and jazzy r my top tier faves lmao. though funnily enough neither of them were immediately my favorites. it kinda happened over time after I finished the anime (which only had 2 seasons at the time) and the manga. robin I never paid much attention to until he suddenly took over my heart but jazz was always a character I was fond of just because of how similar he is to me JHGFHJNGF

but my faves have changed around quite a lot since I've gotten into mairuma. my first fave ever was actually kiriwo, which maybe is a bit surprising considering I never post about him and I've never drawn him either (though I plan to), he's what made me fall in LOVE w/ mairuma when I first watched it. fucking love a little guy who is fucked up beyond repair. then later my #1 fave shifted to iruma, then robin followed closely by jazz, and now robin and jazz r about equal (though I am kind of hyperfixating on jazz atm so I've been posting more abt him and drawing him more often)

other characters I adore include:

kalego, for completely heterosexual reasons

lied. I used to dislike him (I hate his pervy jokes, though he's not nearly as bad as kamui) until I watched s3 of the anime and it singlehandedly changed my opinion on him, even though it was all content that I had already read in the manga, I just think the anime did the scenes better. now I'm a lied stan

allocer. a character I completely ignored for like a year UNTIL I watched his sukima from his episode w/ jazz in season 3. like seriously before that point I couldn't even rmr his name consistently, but then I watched that sukima that converted me into a jazzllocer shipper and he slowly grew on me as a result. but the REAL turning point was when I sat down one day and went "okay, I want to write jazzllocer fanfiction, but it's really fucking hard when it's so difficult to get a grasp on allocer's character. he barely has any scenes focused on him, he's missing for an entire major arc and we know absolutely nothing of his backstory. I'm gonna analyze the few scenes he's in very carefully and then come up with my own hcs to make up for what he lacks in canon." after that there was just no going back. allocer is practically my oc now bc of how much shit I've made up about him in the past month or so. also, nishi, allocer arc when ??????? I'm waiting bruh when will my boy get the focus and fleshing out he deserves

furfur. again … for het reasons. I just really like characters that r absolute bastards HGFGHGFGH

among others, but really I like most of them. I'm also fond of dali (similar to furfur he's kind of a little shit. imagine being the most important teacher at babyls and u never fucking do anything), kerori and gyari (lesbians frfr), sabro (autistic king), etc.

[baekhvuns]

OMG HELLO BAEKSSS!!!

It has been such a long time 😭

I have SAUR much to tell you!

Ok first of all let's start with how I got a part time job as a second year student and 😭 THERE'S THIS GUY THERE AND MY FREAKING MIND CANNOT COMPREHEND HIS BEAUTY! Like istg he looks like a mix of yunho and soobin?? His lips are an exact copy of soobin's! (Don't ask why il abt his lips-) And obviously he's so tall. (The part-time job is at a restaurant btw) and when I tell you he's probably the reason so many people even come to that restaurant like I'm not saying all of them but I'm sure half the portion of them high school girls 😭 but I kinda feel lonely there since I'm bad at socialising but dw I'm working on that.

My phone just acted up- anyways, it acted up again 😭 so I was saying i read those asks regarding the whole ff thing. And y'all aren't wrong, Bcz these days the plot is porn 😃. I mean have you seen those fic with tons of warning at hand that's just a collection of kinks 😭 and the whole bsf's dad trope??? Like atp y'all require grass! Or maybe a whole dang rainforest!

But other than that I reread your fics just to feel something 🥹 and yes I'm positive I felt something Bcz now I'm lovesick. Someone send me my Mr Park, my bg, MY DUKEEE 😭 oh I also dedicated one song to each of the hwa fics, (even tho I've read the other members fics, ...hwa just hits diff.) Okokok! Pls don't judge my music taste tho 😩 [the way I said one nd gv out a whole playlist smh]

Rewrite the stars- if I didn't put rewrite the stars, the greatest showman I'd be considered a criminal! You belong with me too!!

The trouble with hating you- ok ok so Polaroid love for the whole happy moments but then she's in the rain by The Rose for when hwa breaks yn's heart and aurora (Ateez)

Mr and Mrs park- MAMA IM IN LOVE WITH A CRIMINAL 😩 Britney spearsss and i discovered a new song that's called "old love" by Yuji and boi, i get flashbacks to that confession scene! Bambi (baekhyun), mhm (kai) and peaches were made for this, OK HEAR ME OUT FILTER BY JIMIN-

- love talk (wayv) AHEEMMM

-cream soda (exo) aiahwjahsjsj

-Candy (baekhyun) AGH-

Ok but in the end we never knew if yn and hwa got married but like imagine if they had decided to and they hv their kids! Like the leading models get married and just think THE VISUAL hwayoung would hv (I mean I obv don't mean I'm the yn 😭) and then yn takes her for a red carpet or something when she's like 9 or 10 and then we see hwayoung directly after like 10 yrs and everyone is shocked Bcz she has the genes of her mother with the personality of her father THAT'D BE SO DOPE!

Let's not fall in love again- OK GET READY FOR THIS!

-Everytime (chen, punch)

-love sight (TXT)

-I think I'm in love again (kat dahlia) I love the irony, Bcz I also know this is what went thru hwa's brain

[breakingsanity-aruani]

Hello Breaky, one thing I’m sad we did not get to see was Giant Annie and Tiny Armin swimming together. Something about that image seems so serenely beautiful id love to hear your thoughts- sent this to Moon on accident lol

AH!! Hi hi, Mercutio!! I hope you have been well! And I see, well, i'm sure Moon didn't mind xD

As for giant Annie and tiny Armin swimming together... I actually DID have plans for this in DBU, but it sadly didn't end up working out T_T not because I couldn't write the scene, but because I had difficulty fitting it well into the story... Thankfully, I plan to have a few 'what ifs' for DBU, and also well, I can always include such a scene in a different fic!

I agree it would be soooo beautiful and CUTESY!! Though, Annie will need to watch Armin carefully in case he (when) he gets tired xD. If we're in the DBU verse, well, Armin's durable body won't save him from water... Which is also a reason why I had difficulties including such a scene, Armin's own fear of water. While he finds the ocean immensely beautiful, he still had to survive by himself for a couple of years... and ensured many harsh rainstorms. For someone that is only 4 inches tall in size, it was never a good experience for Armin... (This also makes me think that I should do a few bonus side chapters exploring more of Armin's time surviving alone in The Difference Between Us.)

... A-Anyway, sorry, slightly off topic about your question xD I think such a scene would be that of tooth rotting fluff, and also... both of them in their bathing suits... (chapter 17 is one of my most popular chapters for a reason I guess hahaha) I just imagine that when Armin eventually becomes tired, he rests on Annie's tummy as she effortlessly stays afloat in the water on her backside... taking in the sun... Armin blushing like CRAZY...

I picture this in a pool rather than the ocean... no way in HELL is Annie letting Armin take a single touch in ocean water, nope NOPE NOPE. OFF LIMITS XD. Armin would whine about it briefly but Annie's stern tone- along with her clasping him in a tight clenched fist- would key him into her simply being protective of him... and he is endlessly appreciative to Annie for that very safety she has provided to him.

So yes, in a pool... and I 100% seeing a splash fight happening... which Armin is losing miserably, but it's cute that he tries x3... I think Annie will also play 'Jaws' too... give her tiny boy a bit of a playful scare XD AGH!! There's so much to do with this kind of scene and i'm SAD I didn't include it either... T_T but ofc, there is always a chance for it in another fashion! Perhaps I can include it in my canonverse AU, which has a very similar premise with regards to the size difference... aaaaaaaaaaaa I love this idea sm...

So, thank you ever so much for the ask!! I love answering them <3

[starlight-storytime]

sorry I'm just. absolutely obsessed with Nice Guys Die Last. I've read it at least 3 times now and that number would probably be a lot higher if I didn't have exams soon. Just. It's genuinely the most ideal fic ever. I can't even read other fics anymore because if Damian's not there, then what's the point? your oc is living rent free in my head I love him my favorite guy ever he's so. I love him. I have so many thoughts on the fic but I just needed to let you know that I haven't stopped thinking about it ever since I first read it. thank you so much <3

AGH THIS IS THE NICEST COMMENT ANYONE HAS EVER MADE ON ONE OF MY FICS??? ive had fics ive read where i love an oc sm i miss them too so?? hearing that damian is like that for someone is sO SWEET ANON ILU (つ╥﹏╥)つ🤍

listen this is an exclusive secret...but the reason ive been on hiatus is not just my own final papers...i was just getting really into my head abt the next chap bc its the confession scene and ive never actually written one before (っ- ‸ - ς) and Nice guys die last is my BABY and i need it to be PERFECT but also wouldnt it be rlly weird to come back to the series with no context and be given the story climax?? and i also feel like the chapter is too short??? ahhh but i cant push the confession any farther back bc otherwise these bitches are NEVER getting together!!

so. uh. gift for u and maybe 2 other ppl who follow this blog...here's the next chap lol

They were silent as they padded down the front hall together, out of the fire but still crowded by landmines just waiting to go off. One slip, one crunch of broken glass, and there was no guarantee Gwinam’s trick with the blood would work again.

Stay focused. Damian tugged at a lock of his hair, tensely twisting it between his fingers. Stop dreaming. 

Damian was keeping his head down, eyes to the ground and focus locked on not making a single errant sound. Violently shaken awake by such a close call, he wouldn’t make so stupid a mistake twice. He refused to draw attention to himself again, whether it be by not noticing something too late, or by noticing something all too much. 

It’s because he’s watching his step, observing every corpse on the tile for a hint of movement, that he doesn’t see Gwinam perk up, head tilting to the side in that peculiar way it did when he sensed something new. The way a wolf cocked its head at a deer.

Right as they passed some kind of break room, Gwinam did a heel turn and walked right inside instead of following the path towards the stairs.

“Gwinam?” Damian whispered, but the boy didn’t seem to notice.

Damian was startled by the sudden change of pace, but he was also certain Gwinam wouldn’t go anywhere that Damian couldn’t safely follow. 

Not even hesitating, Damian followed him in without sparing a second thought.

The room was empty of any people but the two of them. No corpses, walking or still, populated what appeared to be a teacher’s breakroom. But, while there weren't any other humans, there were still 7 more beating hearts that must have drawn Gwinam’s attention. 

“Ah, isn’t that nice?” Damian muttered, stepping up to Gwinam’s side to watch the tank together.

A group of happy orange goldfish were swimming all over the tank, greedily eating up the breakfast sprinkles that Gwinam had shaken into their water.

“You guys must have been starving, huh?” Gwinam asked rhetorically, a rueful tint to his words.

Ironically enough, not a single one of the defenseless creatures had died. The electricity still worked even when the internet and phone service didn't, so their filtration was still bubbling merrily in their tank. No limp corpses polluted their air the way it did the school’s.

“7 out of 7.” Damian peered around the plants and rocks to check, not finding any signs of a dead fish. “Wow. Perfect score.”

It was a strange dissonance to witness, as the softly trickling water filled the silence. Goldfish were stereotyped to have incredibly short lives, afterall. People always called them brainless things, not built to last longer than a few months. Yet, their rate of survival had been much higher than the ostensibly smarter humans. 

Damian huffed bitterly. If fish were voters, maybe the mayor’s abysmal crisis response would actually get him the votes he wanted. His method of sticking his head in the sand has been great at protecting pet goldfish, if not much else.

“It feels kind of bad, seeing a bunch of dumb fish doing better than us.” Gwinam sighed softly, as if he didn't quite have the energy to be annoyed anymore.

“It's really only sort of better. This tank’s too small for them.” Damian replied, seeing how many fish were in the only 3 gallon tank. 

Damian frowned, leaning his head onto Gwinam’s shoulder and grabbing his arm again. He couldn’t let the boy wander off if he found more fish, after all. “All the money in the world, funded and bribed by thousands of rich parents, and they can't even get a proper sized tank for their pets.” Damian thought aloud.

It was almost poetic, if a bit too on the nose. The parallels between the mistreated fish and all the kids left for dead by the adults. All the donations spent on Hyosan to get their kids the best education (or what looked like the best on paper) but when it came to actually caring and protecting the students, the illusion cracked. Maybe there were lots of teachers like Ms Park who cared in theory, but in practice, saving face always came out on top for the administration. 

Damian enjoyed zoning out a bit, just watching the golden scales shimmer among the bubbling water. Tired as he was, it was easy to be peacefully absorbed by the tranquil sight. The fish weren't much affected by the mass death event of Hyosan. They happily ate the algae floating in the water, adjusting to a new source of food as easily as the infected did.

He was certain if he had the space in his mind, he could come up with a very elegant metaphor with it. At the moment, all his eloquence was standing outside his brain, walking a picket line in protest. 

Damian only broke out of his daze when his eyes refocused on the reflection of the tank. In their mirror image, Gwinam wasn’t watching the fish. He was staring right at Damian. 

Damian startled when he processed it, turning from the water to meet Gwinam’s blown dark pupils. Unavoidably, there wasn't much space in between them, with how Damian had latched on to Gwinam’s arm. Damian internally decided he didn't care, and didn’t let go. He really didn't like the idea of Gwinam wandering off.

“What is it?” Damian asked when Gwinam kept silent, only staring without saying a word. “Is there something on my face?”

Gwinam tilted his head, and then tangled his hand in Damian's hair.

Damian froze, body locked in place like someone had hit his off switch. Gwinam’s gaze seemed so much darker, all of a sudden. The longer strands of the boy’s hair fell in front of his face, brushing against the slope of his nose and just barely grazing the top of his lips. Damian’s blood thumped in his heart, speeding up far too much for such a simple action. 

“What—” Damian’s voice cracked. “What are you doing?”

Slowly, Gwinam moved his other hand to Damian’s cheek.

 “Gwinam?”

Using his thumb, Gwinam gently rubbed away the smear of blood still wet on his face.

…Right. Damian swallowed. The blood. 

Damian was once again excessively mindful of every breath he took or muscle he tensed. It was like he was trying to sneak up on a fawn in the forest, except that was a shitty analogy, because Gwinam was many things and prey should not be one of them. 

Damian didn’t know how long he spent, holding still as the boy caressed his cheek, before Gwinam finally took a step back. “There.” He said quietly, and Damian released his arm immediately. “Better.”

Damian twirled back around to look at the goldfish and desperately hide his growing blush, his face feeling far too warm. Digging a cloth scrap out of his jacket pocket and dipping it into the tank’s water, Damian strode over to a mirror on the wall to clean off the rest of red that had dripped down his neck. 

It was just so Gwinam wouldn't be bothered by the blood, and not because his face needed to cool down. 

Right. Definitely not that.

Stop reading into things, you pathetic creep. Damian desperately scolded as he rubbed his cheek harshly. Your best friend is struggling with a terrible illness and all you can do is think about how pretty he is. Get over yourself.

But despite all that, Damian couldn't resist a darting glance back at the other boy. Spying out of the corner of his eye the way Gwinam’s expression grew tight as he stepped away, self consciously crossing his arms tight.

“Gwinam?” Damian’s hand clutching the cloth faltered, falling slowly as he caught that something was wrong.

“You don't—fuck.” Gwinam’s eyes squeezed tight as he roughly dragged a hand down his face. “You don't have to keep- keep on acting like you're fine with me being some freak.” 

“Hey!” Damian turned fully towards the boy, the smudge of red forgotten. “What the hell gave you that idea? I think we established that if I'm not a freak, then you're not one either.”

“Then why are you scared of me, Damian!” Gwinam burst out, eyes wide with confusion and upset painted clearly on his face.

Damian blinked, utterly thrown. He was certain he hadn't said or done anything that should've conveyed that, considering he really didn't consider Gwinam that different from any other human.

“What? No, why would you think—” Damian’s words froze in his throat, realization striking him like a bolt of hot lightning. 

Gwinam had advanced senses. He could tell where Damian was from hundreds of feet away. He could climb up the side of the school without issue. He could pick Damian up like he weighed nothing. 

He could hear heartbeats to tell when Damian was telling the truth.

“Oh.” Damian finally realized, slow heat creeping over his skin.

That meant Gwinam could also hear the way Damian’s heart sped up when he got close.

“I'm not…scared of you.” Damian repeated, less indignant and now far more abashed. His skin felt too thin, all of a sudden. Like the heavy leather jacket and duct tape lining wasn’t nearly enough to hide him anymore. 

He hadn't planned to tell Gwinam. Not ever, if he could help it. He was too relieved having his friend back in his life, happy and healthy and mostly alive, to ever risk ruining it with his embarrassing crush. 

No, it was a soft spot turned unlikely friendship that had then spiraled down into more than a crush. Damian had fleeting crushes on guys he thought were cute but never pursued plenty of times. They were surface level and easily dismissed. What he felt for Gwinam was far more than that. 

“You—you don't have to lie to me. I can hear it, how disgusted you are.” Gwinam glared at the ground, but his arms were crossed in defensive hurt rather than anger. His grip tightened as he rambled on. “I thought that's just how a human heartbeat sounded like, but now that we're somewhere quiet I can hear the others upstairs and—none of their hearts are the same as yours. When you're close to me, I can…Damian I can hear that it's worse for you.”

The guilt panged stronger in Damian's chest. 

Damian had to have used all the luck he had left in the world, sacrificing all his blessings to just have this one thing. He told himself just having his friend back would be enough. But, if Gwinam was getting the wrong impression from Damian's body language. If he was thinking that Damian was secretly scared of him?

“Gwinam, I…” Damian swallowed dryly, looking down at his shoes. 

His shoulders tensed and curled against his wishes, and he tried to drum up the bravado he used to call on so easily. If it made clear to Gwinam that Damian didn't see him as a monster, then a bit of rejection was nothing. Gwinam had gone through much worse for him, after all. 

The least Damian could do to repay him was to explain the reason Damian was so nervous wasn't because he was scared, but because he was in love.

“You can admit it.” Gwinam’s hurt voice whispered, braced for a rejection.

“Gwinam.” Damian couldn’t help his own guilt bleeding into his words, hating that he had been the one to do this to Gwinam. He hated seeing his friend so low, and it was far worse knowing Damian had caused it. He reached forward, his instincts viscerally pushing him to hold onto his friend. “I’m not scared of you. The reason - “

“It’s fine.” Gwinam cut him off.  “You don’t need to keep making excuses.” Gwinam turned his back to Damian, walking towards the door. “I get it now - “

Damian panickedly grabbed Gwinam’s shoulder, spinning him around and pulling him into a kiss. 

The press of Damian’s desperate confession warmed Gwinam's cold lips, an outpouring of unspoken words and emotions that Damian didn’t know how else to convey. The kiss was closed lip, but nowhere near chaste. 

Damian’s arms were wrapped around Gwinam’s shoulders out of a mix of worry he’d run and a soul deep need to hold on to him and never let go. He had no clue what would be Gwinam’s reaction, but he couldn’t let his best friend go without at least giving him this truth. Damian’s hands trembled where they were fisted in Gwinam’s shirt, and he put his all into the soft press of Gwinam’s lips. 

No words were exchanged, but Damian had never been more sincere in his life. 

Opening eyes that he hadn’t even realized he had squeezed shut, reality finally kicked in and startled Damian back a step. Gwinam had a stunned expression, like his whole world had been reborn with an entirely new meaning to everything Damian had ever said and done.

“Do you get it now?” Damian whispered, utterly vulnerable in the silent aftermath. “That was- you can forget about it, I just needed you to know I was never scared. Not of what you are, at least, but…” Damian tried to smile, but it was a nervous broken mess. His speech babled into nonsense the longer that Gwinam stared wide eyed and wordless. “You - you don't have to say anything. I don't want to bother you anymore than I already have. I - if you don’t want me around anymore I'll leave you alone—”

Gwinam shot his hand out, grabbing onto Damian’s jacket and not letting him move an inch. “If you wanted me to leave you, you’d have to find a way to kill me.”  

Then Gwinam was pulling Damian forward and returning the favor, kissing him back with just as much force as Damian was. 

It was like Gwinam was chasing the warmth in Damian, hands skimming up Damian’s arms until Gwinam was cradling Damian’s jaw and pulling him in deep. Gwinam’s lips were chapped and the taste of copper lingered in their mouths but Damian truly could not have cared less about details like that.

He was far more focused on pressing their bodies together until their legs were tangled and their chests were flat against the other. It didn’t matter how slow Gwinam’s frozen blood ran, Damian’s heart was beating fast enough for two. Damian didn’t know how long the second kiss lasted, breathless and overwhelmed as he was. He was only certain that it was the deepest kiss he had ever had.

But not too deep, as Damian was so filled with glee that they were forced to break apart from how widely he was smiling. 

“What?” Gwinam tries to growl out in his usual manner, but it's ruined by how he's also grinning stupidly, Damian’s hands falling far too naturally on Gwonam's hips.

“We should do that more often.” Damian states as authoritatively as he can when he's giggling like an idiot, red faced and breathing a bit too heavily. “Once we taste less like blood, of course.”

“Of course.” Gwinam immediately agreed, cool hands still framing Damian’s face

They stared silently at each other, holding out for a barely a second before their lips were on each other again.
