Arisu x reader

I never liked games. They always seemed pointless to me—win, lose, repeat. But Arisu… Arisu was different. He saw games as something more, something that meant survival, something that meant purpose. And because I loved him, I followed him into this twisted world, where life and death played on the same board.

He always tried to keep me safe. “Stay behind me,” he’d say, his hand tightening around mine like I was something fragile. But I wasn’t fragile—not really. I just couldn’t bear to be apart from him, not in this place. The Borderlands had a way of pulling people apart, of turning hope into dust.

And yet, I clung to him. I couldn’t help it.

Even when he needed space to think, I would find myself gravitating toward him. I’d lean against his shoulder, brush my fingers against his, make sure he was still there. It made me feel safe. It made me feel real. He never pushed me away, not exactly, but I could see it in his eyes sometimes—that distant look, the weight of survival pressing down on him.

“You’re too close,” he’d murmur sometimes, but his arms would wrap around me all the same.

I’d nod and pretend I didn’t feel the ache in my chest.

Because in the Borderlands, love felt dangerous. Love was a weakness, a distraction. I heard the whispers from the others—how they thought I held him back, how they thought I was too needy, too attached. Maybe I was. But I didn’t care. Arisu was my anchor, and without him, I would drift away into the nothingness that surrounded us.

One night, after surviving a particularly brutal hearts game, he sat by the fire, staring at the flickering flames, lost in thought. I curled up beside him without asking, pressing myself against his side. His arm instinctively came around me, and for a moment, I felt like I belonged in his world—not just as someone he protected, but as someone he needed too.

“Why do you always stay so close?” he asked softly, not looking at me.

I swallowed hard. “Because I don’t want to lose you.”

He was quiet for a long time, and I thought maybe I had said too much. But then he turned, his tired eyes meeting mine, and there was something there—something that made my heart pound.

“You won’t,” he whispered, pulling me even closer.

And in that moment, the Borderlands didn’t feel so terrifying. Because as long as I was with Arisu, I could survive anything. Even my own fears.

A/n: underrated in his own show 😔

"More Than Words"

Pairing: Chishiya X Reader

Summary: In a place Unknown to you your happy to have met Chishiya. Your life line and aswell as your grim reaper. And your unrequited lover..I meant your Friend,Just your Friend.

In the Borderlands, everyone you loved was a weakness, a target. Survival didn’t allow for attachments. But you, reckless and hopeless, had latched onto Chishiya anyway. It was foolish—you knew that. He’d never given you any reason to hope. He didn’t do closeness, didn’t do love. To him, you were probably just another face in this hellscape. Maybe not a stranger, but not someone he would ever call his own.

And yet, there were those stolen moments. The way his gaze lingered a fraction too long. The quiet conversations in dim-lit rooms after exhausting games. The way he’d listen, lips pressed tight as if fighting back some invisible wall. He’d listen, and you’d talk, filling up the silence as though you could get closer to him through sheer force of will.

But even then, it had never been enough. You knew you were just a friend.

Still, when you entered this game together, you hoped maybe this time it would be different. This game was brutal, built to split people apart, confuse them, turn every choice into a gamble. It was meant to break you, just like all the rest. But he was here. And as the walls shifted and the path twisted, your only thought was of finding him, of reaching him before it was too late.

3...2...1…

The clock started, and you bolted forward, searching, shouting his name. Every twist and turn separated you further, every dead-end taunting you. Panic clawed at your chest, but you shoved it down, forcing yourself to keep moving, to believe you’d find him.

Finally, there he was. Chishiya stood in a clearing, trapped between jagged edges of electrified wire and a barricade that forced him into a narrow path. You saw the calculation in his eyes, his mind already working through the maze, testing every possibility for escape.

"Chishiya!" You called his name, stumbling toward him.

He turned, and for a second, you thought you saw something vulnerable flicker across his face—a hesitation, a softness that he couldn’t mask quickly enough. But just as soon as it appeared, it was gone, his gaze hardening into that unreadable stare you knew too well.

“Go. I’ll figure this out,” he said, voice flat, his expression guarded. “You can still make it.”

The words cut deep. Every time, he kept his distance. Every time, he made it clear—there was no place for you in his heart. And maybe that was your mistake. Because to you, he was everything. To him, you were just a friend.

“Not without you,” you said, your voice shaking, the desperation slipping through. “Chishiya, please…”

He shook his head, a hint of frustration breaking through his stoic mask. “Don’t be foolish. You’ll only get yourself killed.”

But you were already past the point of caution. “You think I’d just leave you here? After everything?”

He averted his gaze, jaw tight. “Why does it matter so much to you?”

A thousand answers surged forward, each one more painful than the last. You wanted to tell him that he mattered. That you’d give anything if he’d just let you in. That every time he held you at arm’s length, it felt like another piece of your heart cracking, splintering, but you couldn’t stop coming back to him. Even knowing it could never be enough.

“It matters because…” Your voice wavered, your throat tightening. “Because you matter. Because maybe you don’t care, but I—”

The words were cut short as the floor lit up with an ominous red glow, the game’s timer ticking down. You were running out of time.

“Leave, now,” he commanded, his gaze hard and unyielding. The same way he’d told you countless times. The same look that reminded you of all the times he’d only see you as a friend.

But you didn’t move. Couldn’t. Instead, you reached for him, feeling the warmth of his arm under your fingers.

He froze, caught off guard by the touch. For a moment, the mask cracked. For a heartbeat, you thought maybe—just maybe—he might let you in. But then he pulled away, stepping back, and it felt like something shattered between you.

“You’re just going to get yourself hurt,” he murmured. The words hung in the air like a bitter reminder of all the ways he’d tried to keep you at a distance.

Before you could respond, the walls shifted again, the wires sparking dangerously close. The only path left was a narrow, treacherous ledge, and the goal was still just out of reach. You knew what you had to do, even if he didn’t understand. Even if he never would.

With a steady breath, you stepped forward, pushing him behind you. He protested, reaching for you, but you were quicker. You dodged the wires, feeling the sting of them as they grazed your skin, sharp and searing. Each step was agony, but you didn’t stop, didn’t hesitate. You pressed on, clearing the way for him as he watched, his face stricken, caught between horror and helplessness.

Finally, the end was in sight. But the last trap triggered just before you reached it, a final wall of wires sparking to life, cutting you off from escape.

“Go,” you whispered, voice hoarse, barely able to look at him. “You can still make it, Chishiya. Please…”

His face was unreadable, a storm of emotions swirling in his eyes. But he didn’t move.

“Why?” he asked, voice barely a whisper, so quiet you almost missed it.

Because you’re more than just a friend to me. Because you’re the only reason I’ve fought this hard. Because even if you’ll never feel the same way, I’d do anything for you.

But you didn’t say any of it. Instead, you smiled, a weak, broken thing. “You know why.”

The timer ticked down, the red lights flashing, warning you both that time was almost up. He looked at you, really looked, as if for the first time. And for one second, you thought he might stay.

But he didn’t. With one last unreadable look, he turned and ran toward the goal, his figure disappearing into the light.

The pain hit all at once as the wires closed in, a shock so intense it stole your breath, your vision blurring. But even through the agony, you felt a strange peace. Because you’d given him the only thing you could—another chance.

You closed your eyes, the ache in your heart blending with the physical pain, both sharp and unyielding. You wondered if he’d think of you, if he’d remember this, even for just a moment.

Maybe to him, you were just a friend. But to you, he was everything.

As darkness settled over you, your final thought was of his face, his soft, unreadable gaze lingering in your memory. The tears slid down, silent, unseen, as you let yourself go, hoping that somewhere in the Borderlands, he’d carry a piece of you with him.

He stood alone, hands clenched, staring into the darkness where he’d left you behind. That brief moment replayed in his mind, over and over—the way you’d looked at him, the weight of your unspoken words, the pain in your eyes.

And for the first time in his life, Chishiya felt something like regret.

Alice in Borderland Season 3 this September! But I fear nothing could out serve Season 2 🤌🏽

[sidneycaitlinart]

♡ Kuina ♡

Warning - Alice in Borderland S2 spoilers ahead - proceed with caution!

Kuina is such a great character - her backstory is so heart-wrenching, but the fact that she pushes past all she’s endured and remains a heroic person, even in the Borderlands, is incredible.  I was a fan from her first appearance on screen - I loved her attitude and style, and her friendship with Shiya too! (I really hope they meet again after returning home!) But I think it was her fight with Last Boss which really cemented her as one of my favourites. The duality of her fighting her demons and coming to terms with her traumatic past while simultaneously defeating a terrifying swordfighter with the martial arts skills she had previously resented - all while standing barefoot on broken glass - was just incredible! That was it, I was in love ♡

The King of Spades battle broke me - it was just SO BRUTAL. Everyone did so well but watching everything rapidly falling apart as the main cast got taken out one by one was absolutely heartbreaking. Kuina fought so bravely, and her being stabbed was incredibly painful to watch (kudos to Aya Asahina - she played Kuina brilliantly, and this scene in particular was so well-performed). Kuina later being helpless to do anything as An dies beside her was tragic, and the realisation at the end that An had survived because Kuina held her hand and pulled her back home with her (“let’s go back together”) was so beautiful and touching ♡

I was overjoyed to see Kuina alive in the hospital, and the scene with her father had me in tears again. The promise Kuina and An made to be friends when they got home makes me believe that they’ll reconnect in the real world. I can only hope for a cute little love story too, because I’m a huge sucker for the relationship between these two damn it!

As with my Chishiya piece, the face card designs are exactly as shown in the series, and I made sure to include all of the games Kuina plays!

professor's pet ; chishiya

SUMMARY: chishiya is a master's student and is teaching at a college, everything seemed fine, until one of his students made a very pertinent comment on one of her papers. (or you ask chishiya to fuck you with your assignment)

warnings: chishiya x fem!reader, sex in the classroom, daddy kink, chishiya wears glasses *-*, chishiya is 27 years old, begging, face and ass slapping, degradation kink, dirty talk, choking, oral (on both), big cock!chishiya (surprise surprise), pet names

word count: 2,4k

and another thing: so in brazil, we have a lot of college parties and sometimes some professors that are younger tend to go, idk if this happens everywhere else, but in here it can happen, it's not that common, but it can happen.

english is not my first language, so i’m sorry for any mistakes.

enjoy!

"Professor, aren't you going to the party on Friday?", you asked approaching the blonde man.

Chishiya was a master's student and was teaching classes to complete his workload. He had no problems with any class, but there was always some friendly conversation, because he was close in age to his students, especially to you, who was only two years younger than he. And Chishiya felt that you weren't just treating him as a friend, let alone asking that while the two of you were alone.

"You can call me Chishiya, miss", said the blonde smiling, "But I don't think I will."

"Why not?", you laughed, fiddling with the collar of the white dress shirt he was wearing, finding an excuse to touch him, even though he had checked if his collar was in place a few seconds ago.

"I have some tests and papers to grade", he explained with a sigh, "And I have my thesis to write."

"Ah, but just one day, Chishiya", you smiled, leaning over your high table, your breasts squeezing between the arms crossed on the table, you weren't wearing a low-cut shirt, but he could still see the bra lace marking on the black top, "Karube always shows up at parties."

"Because he doesn't give a fuck", he grumbled making you laugh, "And he doesn't need the scholarship so he doesn't mind that much."

You nodded, "Got it, got it."

"But why do you want me to go to a university party so badly?"

"Why can't I want to see my favorite professor at a party?", you pouted, blinking your pretty little eyes.

Chishiya smiled, looking very snarky, "Maybe one day I will show up, but it will be a surprise."

You smiled radiantly, "Deal", and took a deep breath, your breasts squeezing against the thin and tight blouse, "Just try to go to a party I go to, because otherwise the surprise won't work."

"Of course", agreed the eldest.

They said goodbye and you left, leaving Chishiya alone in the class, worried about his desire to respond to your advances, to talk to you the way he wanted and be malicious, but he had to control himself, he was still your professor.

However, things got more complicated when he went to grade one of your papers and noticed a very interesting sentence in the middle of your answers.

"You can stay after class, I need to talk to you about your work", whispered the oldest to you while the students were trying to solve one of the questions he had given them.

You looked at him smiling innocently, he just wanted to send everyone away and put you on your knees right there, but he needed to know if it was some very explicit joke or if you were taking the teasing to another level.

"What's wrong with my work, Chishiya?", you asked after everyone left, watching the blonde go to the door and close it.

"So…", he went to his desk, "come here", he asked calling you with his hand, adjusting his glasses and running his hand through his soft hair waiting for you to approach, getting your work from his bag, "Your work was perfect, until I got to this part here…", he sighed, "'Are you going to fuck me soon or do I have to beg on my knees?'. What does that mean?"

"That I got tired of being discreet", you grinned seeing him clench his jaw.

"Yeah?"

You nodded, leaning your elbows back on the table, resting your arms on the white wood and placing your breasts over them like you did last time, "Yeah… and what are you going to do about it?"

"Me?", he laughed wryly, "I won't do anything… you will", your eyebrows rose, "Now", Chishiya touched your delicate face and squeezed your chin, "kneel and beg."

"What?", you asked, surprised by the attitude.

"You heard", the blonde smiled leaning towards you, his face getting so dangerously close to yours, making you part your lips thinking you would be kissed, earning only a malicious laugh, "Kneel and beg."

Immediately you knelt down in front of the man, your hands going up his thighs, pulling him close, Chishiya looked at you with dark eyes, making you want to moan, "Please, Chishiya… please, I just want to be your little toy, I swear I will be good for you..."

The blonde smirked as he adjusted his glasses, his hand grabbing your chin again, "You will be good for me?", he repeated, making you nod, "I didn't see a good girl while you were running your hand over me or showing me your tits ", he said quietly, "You deserve to get punished for being such a fucking liar."

"I do, daddy."

He laughed evilly, "Daddy?", his big fingers slid across your face, he stopped his movements when you offered your face to him, "Slut", he laughed, slapping you in the face, making you gasp, "And what do you want daddy to do with a slut like you?"

"You can do whatever you want to me, daddy", he assured you, taking his hand to your face and sucked on his thumb.

Chishiya sighed, "Is your mouth as good to fuck as it looks?"

"You can fuck it if you want", you said, letting go of his thumb.

"Hm", he slapped you in the face again, "repeat that."

"You can fuck it if you want, daddy."

"Good girl", he smiled.

Chishiya's hand grabbed your neck, gently squeezing, pulling you up, his tongue licking your bottom lip, laughing softly as you thrust your tongue out of your mouth, seeking to rub your tongue on his, and he did what you wanted, licking your tongue calmly before finally kissing you.

One of your hands held his wrist as he choked you, his hand squeezing the sides of your neck, knocking all the air out of you with the reckless kiss. His tongue glided across yours without any restrain, being rough, making you whine softly.

"Did you want me to go to a party so you could humiliate yourself like that for me, baby girl?", asked the oldest.

"If you wanted, I would, daddy", you confessed.

"What a fucking slut", and he went back to kissing you.

You purred softly, your legs pressing together trying to relieve some of the throbbing in your pussy, not having much success. Your hands went to his thighs, moving up to his erection, squeezing it, whimpering softly at the feel of the bulge in your hand.

"You will destroy me", you whispered, separating your lips from his.

He chuckled, taking off his glasses and placing them on the table, "I will", he reached up and unzipped his pants, pulling his cock out of his briefs, his hand cupping the thick length and moving up and down, "Do you want to be destroyed, princess?"

"I do, daddy", you whispered, getting on your knees.

The blonde smirked and pulled your face close to his cock at the back of your neck, smiling when you stuck out your tongue, tapping his hard cock on your wet tongue, "You're so beautiful, baby girl."

You smiled, replaced his hand with yours and dipped his cock in your mouth, sighing softly as you felt the weight of the hard cock on your tongue, your head going back and forth, slowly at first to get used to it, but then it quickened the pace, your hand masturbating the length along with your mouth while your other hand massaged his balls.

Chishiya watched you intently, panting and moaning softly, sometimes when you licked the tip of his cock, his head would fall back. His strong fingers sliding through your hair as you enjoyed drooling on his cock and massaging his balls.

"Fuck", he whispered as he watched you lift your shirt and pull your breasts out of your bra, squeezing your nipples with one hand, "Who said you could touch yourself?"

You raised your teary eyes to him and took a deep breath taking his cock out of your mouth, "I'm sorry, daddy, I can't take it anymore… it hurts so much…"

"Oh… poor thing", he pouted, being ironic, "Stand up", he ordered being promptly obeyed.

His hands gripped your waist, pushed you against the wall behind them and kissed you as his fingers pinched your nipples, eliciting soft little whimpers from you, your hands gripping his arms and squeezing.

"Open your pants for me", he ordered.

You promptly obeyed, taking off your sneakers in a hurry and opening your jeans that were pushed to the floor by Chishiya, who kept licking and sucking your nipples.

Chishiya's hand went down your waist until it reached your panties, pulling it away from you, seeing how wet you were, "Oh…", and smiled, letting go of your breasts, "so wet."

His long fingers slipped into your panties, sliding easily with your pleasure, grinning as he took them out of the cloth and lifted them, making you stick out her tongue, wanting to lick them.

Chishiya smiled and brought his fingers to your lips, licking them next to you, tangling his tongue with yours before kissing you. The kiss was faster than you would have liked, but soon the blonde was kneeling on the floor, lowering your panties until they were off your feet, only to put it in his back pocket.

You whined in agony, your fingers threading through the soft blonde hair as his mouth began to devour your pussy. One of your legs was placed over his shoulder giving him room to lick you more comfortably. His tongue circled your clit before flattening it into your pussy while sucking your clit.

"Daddy", you moaned, your head hitting the wall as he slowly thrust two fingers inside you.

"Such a good pussy", he whispered, going back to licking you his fingers fucked you so roughly.

 While you moaned in despair, thinking you were going to fall, your legs shaking, the blonde smeared himself with your pleasure, his fingers going in and out of your tight pussy, licking every last centimeter he could. His dark eyes looked at you, watching you shiver and whimper.

You panted heavily, your body spasming slightly, one of your hands gripping his hair and the other squeezing his hand that held your thigh and you finally came in his mouth. Chishiya flattened his tongue across your pussy, taking long licks, lapping all the pleasure out of you, breathing calm as his mouth grew even more hungry.

"Daddy", you whimpered, "fuck me please…"

Chishiya pulled his face away from your pussy, the pleasure of you wetting his sweet face, little filets connecting his lips to you, "What do you want, baby girl?", he asked.

"I want you to fuck me…"

"How?"

"As a fucking slut deserves."

He smiled and stood up, "You are so cute", he complimented, grabbing you by the waist and pushing you towards his desk, leaving your back to him. Without warning, he slapped you on the ass, making you moan and budge at him, "So fucking hot."

"Daddy…"

The blonde pulled your hips so you stuck your ass out for him, sighing, he delivered another slap, his body leaning over yours, his hand grabbing your ass, "Has anyone ever fucked that ass, baby girl? "

"No, daddy", you whispered, your legs shaking as you felt the tip of his cock gently forcing its way in.

"Oh", he chuckled, his mouth got close to your ear, making you shiver, "I can't wait to stretch that little ass open."

"Please, daddy", you purred, whining as his cock continued to enter you, inch by inch, "make me all yours."

"I will, my little princess."

Chishiya moaned when he was all the way inside you, his body starting to move slowly, letting you get used to his size. Just as you were whimpering louder, begging to be fucked, he quickened his movements, holding you around the waist to help his movements, his balls slamming hard into your pussy.

"Fucking tight pussy", he said as he slapped your ass again, it was already getting so beautifully red.

The blonde grabbed you by the neck and pulled you back against his body, pulling your face to his, kissing you desperately, his hips thrusting without any mercy. You two moaned softly, trying to control yourselves, trying not to attract attention as the table swayed with their movements.

One of Chishiya's hands went to the front of your body, his fingers sliding over your clit, making you moan louder and cling to him tighter, squeezing his arm as his fingers quickly jerked you off.

You whimpered, your insides squeezing him, making him moan low, "Cum inside me, daddy, please", you whispered, feeling the orgasm consume you, "Please…"

Chishiya smiled, a motherfucker smile, "So the little slut likes to get full of cum?"

"A lot, daddy", you purred, still being fucked without any mercy.

"Good to know."

The blonde continued his precise movements, using you as a toy to get his own pleasure, thrusting while holding your hips making movements contrary to yours. A low, dark moan left his lips as he felt his orgasm approaching, you moaned feeling the hot cum spilling inside you.

The elder's movements were slowing down as he panted heavily, his hands slid through your hair and pulled you to kiss him while he straightened your shirt and your pants.

Upon breaking the kiss and finally being able to put on his own pants, you sighed, sitting on Chishiya's chair to put on your sneakers, "I think I need help with some exercises, sir Shuntaro."

"Do you want to stay after class for some lessons, baby girl?", he asked, chuckling when you nodded innocently, "I think one of those classes will have to be at my house."

"Wherever you want to fuck me-", you laughed feigning shyness and ran a hand through your hair, "I mean, wherever you want to teach me."

"You don't exist", he chuckled, giving you one last peck before you finally walked away.

A few hours later, he was alone in on his office when he got a video from you, a video where you were sitting in your car seat, showing your pussy, fucking it with your fingers, cum oozing over your skin, saying that you already missed him. He sighed, it would be a long semester ahead of him.

No damsel here

Arisu x reader

Summary: A fearless player proves she doesn’t need Arisu’s protection. After a brutal game, he admits he cares—she’s not going anywhere.

~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~•~

Survival in the Borderlands wasn’t about being the strongest or the smartest. It was about being stubborn. And if there was one thing I was, it was stubborn.

Arisu never said it out loud, but I knew he worried about me. I could see it in the way his eyes flicked to me during games, his fingers twitching like he was always one second away from pulling me behind him. It was sweet, really. But I wasn’t some damsel waiting to be saved.

And I made damn sure he knew that.

“Stay behind me,” he said once, right before a clubs game.

I scoffed. “Yeah, not happening.”

He gave me that exasperated look, the one he always did when I was about to do something he deemed ‘reckless.’ But I wasn’t reckless—I was calculated. I knew exactly what I was doing.

The game was brutal, like they always were, but I held my own. Dodged when I needed to, fought when I had to. At one point, I caught Arisu watching me—half impressed, half worried. I just smirked and blew him a kiss.

“You focus on surviving, genius,” I teased. “I’ve got this.”

He grumbled something under his breath but didn’t argue. He knew better by now.

Later, after we made it through with barely a scratch, he pulled me aside, his fingers wrapping tightly around my wrist.

“You don’t always have to charge in like that,” he said, his voice low but firm. “You could get hurt.”

I arched an eyebrow. “So could you.”

“That’s different.”

“How?” I challenged, stepping closer, daring him to come up with an excuse. “You think I can’t handle myself? Because last I checked, I’m still standing here.”

His jaw tightened, and for a second, I thought he might argue. But then he sighed, running a hand through his messy hair. “I know you’re tough. I just… I don’t want to lose you.”

My chest tightened, but I didn’t let it show. Instead, I crossed my arms and smirked. “Well, lucky for you, I’m not easy to get rid of.”

Arisu chuckled, the corners of his mouth lifting in that rare, soft way that made my heart do stupid things. He pulled me into a tight hug, and for a moment, I let myself sink into it—just a little.

“You drive me crazy,” he muttered.

“I know,” I murmured into his chest, grinning. “But you love it.”

He sighed. “Yeah. I do.”

And just like that, the Borderlands didn’t seem so impossible. Because no matter how many games they threw at us, I knew one thing for sure—I wasn’t going down without a fight.

[chillypowder]

So first and foremost happy New year's can't wish a happy Christmas due since it's against my religion.

That aside sorry for being MIA and can't promise of it won't happen again.

But I do have some good news so I'm working on a fanfic. Two actually one ekko and the other Chishiya. Cause my other Chishiya fanfic exploded out of nowhere.and ekko cause my fav needs more fanfics.

Now the Reason I'm posting at all.

I was thinking do you guys want a two part series for Chishiya or a Hella long fanfic that might be 12k+ (⁠ ⁠╹⁠▽⁠╹⁠ ⁠).

Don't question it.

The Ekko one will probs be posted after I'm done writing Chishiya's fanfic.
