icymi 👔💕 Boyfriend!Nanami gets bitchy with your ex

"Oh, fuck-- Kento, stopstopstop-- go back--"

Kento grimaced, almost comedically, as you tried to push him back out through the coffee shop doorway, and into the freezing rain. The bell above you dinged, and dinged, and dingalingdingdinged as the two of you battled, and the door danced back and forth against it.

Kento wouldn't leave the promise of fresh bread without a fight.

"-- if they haven't got the casse croute left, I'll be perfectly happy with something else-" (he wouldn't) "--and I can come back later to grab one for lunch tomorrow--" (he couldn't) "--and I'd just prefer to get out of the rain--" (please)

"No," you hissed, urging, "no, it's not that, it's--"

Kento blinked, one long, slow blink, over your shoulder. He clocked a man-- a familiar man, one whose photos he had once seen you tear to shreds-- who was sat at a window table already. Ah. He understood.

"Don't worry," Kento murmured, slipping a discrete, strong hand around your waist to press you through the doorway, as you looked up at him in anguish, "he won't bother us. But if he does--" (no, Kento-- you shouldn't--")

By the time the inevitable occurred, and your ex approached to wipe the smile off your face, Kento had already calculated the sum of the man, and found he came up short.

Kento watched you from over the rim of his cup, concealing a smirk in foam as you cold-shouldered your ex with such exquisite vindictiveness that he felt himself twitch against his thigh. Kento pinched your thigh, softly, as you stalked past him to excuse yourself to the bathroom.

Your ex chewed on something Kento only hoped was gum, and sat on your chair (have to dry-clean her coat for her, shit) and regarded Kento's beige suit with a shit-eating grin. He held out his hand, which Kento shook, despite its filthy nails (ugh).

"New guy, are you?" Said your ex, kissing his teeth with a glint in his eye, "How do you like my sloppy seconds?"

Kento smiled, though it didn't quite reach his eyes, "I find flowers stay fresh and thriving in new soil, actually. And anyway, things were rather fresh after the first, ah...four inches, was it?"

Your ex balked, and recoiled. As he leaned back against his chair, his face turned puce, and he opened his mouth to make a scene, which we can't have, Kento, oh no, so--

"I advise you move forwards again-- just a little more-- there. Perfect."

Your ex, stunned, had followed Kento's mellow instruction without questioning, and shuffled back forwards into the fresh sunlight. Kento smiled again.

"There we go. Things don't grow in the shade. Would you like the lamp on? I can reach it for you."

Your ex scoffed now, and scoffed some incoherent curses, and scoffed himself into standing and tripping over the leg of his chair. You arrived back from the bathroom, and regarded your soiled chair with disgust.

"--you can keep her--" Your ex spat, jostling his pockets for his car keys, "--of all the cheek-- I'm leaving--"

"In that?" Kento regarded a car outside the coffee shop, as its one working indicator flashed to life, "I didn't bring my jump cables. Will you be alright?"

You choked into your latte, clattering it down onto the table to turn away and cough into your sleeve. Your ex looked as though he may hit Kento (he can try), but remembered himself, and went to move to the cashier.

Kento piped up one last time, barely audible above the coffee shop din.

"I wouldn't worry. I paid your bill, when we arrived. Buy yourself something...nice."

Your ex scarpered, bursting out of the door like a cat out of its cage. You took a bite of cake through teary-eyed, muffled laughter. Kento smiled over at you, leaning on one hand to admire your blossoms and life.

"You're such a bitch, Kento, I knew I shouldn't have left you alone with him--"

(you're right; you shouldn't have)

I’ve been silly at 3:30 am doing this—

The drabble was soooo 🤌 it felt like it needed to be framed so I did✨

I hope all the Haitch babies are doing okay and that both you and Mr. Haitch are not burning yourselves out too much 🫂

Love xx

Okay, that's fine, just make me cry I guess. That's so beautiful-- who wrote that?! Crying.

If you'd like to read Diamond, where Nanami Kento witnesses your boyfriend treating you badly, and then tells you how he treats precious things, please find it here.

@anonimusunnoaniswriting is another one that puts Haitch quotes to pictures. You guys are lovely.

Babies are a-okay! Hopefully a peaceful Sunday for us tomorrow...but I suspect not 🚫

Love as always,

toxic!misunderstood!Nanami who tied the knot in his early twenties because he had no hope love was real and married a (less than) decent woman who gave him no issues (yet hes still miserable) THHENNNN he meets reader and actually does fall in love and reader doesn’t suspect anything about her lovely new boyfriend cause he spends three days a week with her and waits on her hand and foot while he struggles with the internal battles of whether he should end his marriage & other things

Based off a Reddit post I saw + the other woman by Lana del Rey

Hey!

Not going to write this one, because Nanami Kento cheating on a partner and then HIDING A WHOLE ASS MARRIAGE from a new partner, is so woefully deceptive and horrible and really Not-Very-Kento, that I quite honestly couldn't conceive of it.

Further notes, in my humble opinion, and further Not-Very-Kentoisms.

Cheating isn't justified just because your current partner is "less than decent".

Cheating isn't justified because you're planning on leaving a relationship anyway.

In truth, the way Nanami would handle this scenario would probably go one of two ways, depending on his self-worth at the time:

Low self-worth: would likely prioritise duty over happiness, and stay with his current wife, but forever grieve the 'could have been' of another he falls in love with, but lets go.

Higher self-worth: doesn't start anything even remotely inappropriate with the other woman, but if he recognises that he has feelings for her and is miserable in his marriage, would make moves to end his marriage. I honestly think he wouldn't even tell the other woman he had feelings for her, lest she feels responsible for prompting the end of his marriage. He wouldn't bad-mouth his first wife. He would likely leave a respectful amount of time post-divorce, before pursuing things with the other woman.

Sorry, I normally just delete fic ideas I don't like but...

...yeah. I had Thoughts™️ about this one.

A complex subject, and thanks for thinking of me! But no thank you to writing it.

I, as the Reader character, would not at all like to be "the other woman", and I personally would be heartbroken if I found my new partner had hidden a whole wife from me.

I also don't think very highly of women who are flattered to be 'the other woman', honestly.

Love,

I ... I ... I ... Ahn ... My comment was so huge that I decided to sent it through here. About the "Smut" story.

From what witchcraft of a cauldron have all you magnificent magician's have been boiling and drinking from ?! What sorcery is this ?

* Screams in 12 different languages. 5 dead dialects. 7 alien idioms *

I am breathless ! And cannot describe into words the rest of the feelings this stirred up. 🔥❤️‍🔥👀🫠

Kylo Ren and the Phantom of Opera holy hell amen to that ! I live them ! What a combo for this delicious sorcerer to act upon.

This is devilishly erotic and well written that omg this spicy smut is better than what we seen in so many books. The richness that it captures, his performance, better than any fine wine !

Seriously, some Dark Romance books don't capture this finesse of essence. It feels too rushed and no build up. But this, woooow ! I want this !

If she divorces Nanami I volunteer! LOL. The man can fold, break, rip me in half and I'll thank him. You raised the Nanami bar even more, @actuallysaiyan did that earlier and now you did it. All of Nanami writers just keep shooting me down. I feel like the undead monkey from Pirates of the Caribbean. Everyone just shooting me ! I'm not sure who's the masochist and who's the sadist the readers or the writers at this point.

Oh Lord I am ruined for any irl men because of these heart wrenching, gut rearranging, soul ascending or descending idk at this point anymore, pick your poison, so well written fics ! I want all of Nanami's facets (teen, salaryman, sorcerer, husband, boyfriend, pst-shibuya, older silverfoxed, etc) gimme gimme. Gimme this man. This sorcerer has me wrapped around his finger with just a gleam of his eyes.

*starts chanting for manifesting irl a man life him*

Or someone will have to pay for my therapy session or worse, a psychiatric ward. LOL

As always, my radio mind while reading this thought about pieces of this song: "You put a spell on me... I'm losing my mind. You better stop things... It's a matter of time... Before I hunt you down. Grab your chin, and kiss your lips. You bring me back. I lay you down. And grab your hips And we lose all control... And before you know it... I put a spell on you." From Austin Giorgio's 'You Put a Spell on Me'.

Thank you so much for your writings! For your work of art and for sharing! Seriously, thank you very much. You writers have no idea how much your stories help us, inspires or just makes us feel more comfy in this harsh world.

I'm so sorry it's taken me SO LONG to answer this, I've been a bit burnt out and exhausted, but...

THANK YOU! I actually had such a great time writing that one, letting Nanami Kento go fake!darkside was such a treat.

Honestly, you consistently read so much of my stuff, so an extremely big thank you for that. There are some cracking Nanami writers on here, I hope you find more in your exploration!

And thank you for making ME feel comfy. Reading this was like being wrapped up in a blanket and given a big mug of hot chocolate.

And for waiting.

I'm so sorry it took so long. Really. Honestly. Mostly I've just been eating too much and tired. So this really makes my day to reread this Inbox again 💕💕

I love this! thank you for the tag lourdes and thank you for including my ino fic on the list! 😭♥️ I've read a lot of amazing fics this year, and these are just ten that I can think of off the top of my head! this is in no particular order/ranking:

I love literally every piece of work that @bloompompom writes, but I am especially enthralled with her series gossip! right now. this has me by the fucking throat! the world building in this is incredible, every time I read a chapter, I'm transported into the world she created for us. it's a masterpiece.

DTF series by @mochimooon, this one was so much fun to read omg! I always started each chapter with a giant smile on my face, then at the end, I was screaming with how hot the smut was! each chapter features a different aot man and it truly opened my eyes to characters I never really thought much about. so much love for this series and for this writer.

How It'll Be by @kentomilk. This is such a healing piece especially after such a heavy JJK season (Shibuya arc who, I don't know her). It's tender, sweet, full of love, and beautifully written. It made my love for Nanami grow larger , if that was even possible. this writer is also very dear to me and I know she put her heart into this, and it truly shows. It's an absolutely stunning piece of art.

Good Grief by @crazychaoticizzy, an epic Erwin x f!reader series that has me captivated! It is insanely well written and has me on a rollercoaster of emotions for our characters. Truly an amazing piece of work.

Infiltration by @pseudowho, a Nanami series that has me in a fucking chokehold! It's sexy, romantic, thrilling, action-packed with a bit of mystery. Haitch is an amazing writer who has created an incredible story that has us all at the edge of our seats. Amazing work.

@todorosie's Kinktober this year was INSANE. JJK in the Barbieverse?!?! Already a genius idea, but the execution was top notch. Sorin is so creative and insanely talented, October was a fabulous month thanks to her.

stress relief by @whatthefucksatan, I remember reading this when I first started getting curious about choso and this piece right here fully converted me into a choso girlie, and I haven't looked back since. ☺️

I love all of @jadeee's work but right now, I'm thinking about Coworker!Nanami! this one had me giggling and kicking my feet up in the air. The fortune teller got me, GOT ME GOOD. this is so so cute.

she misses me by @mrsackermannx. boyfriend!Ino, BOYFRIEND!INO!!! there's phone sex and the sweetest boyfriend ever calling us a little needy puppy, of course I'm obsessed with this! had me barking when I read it a few months ago, and I still am now.

bites n' scratches by @demonwoman is the last fic I read in 2023 and it truly ended the year with a bang. guard dog kishibe and black cat reader, I love this concept!! it's relatable, endearing, and very sweet.

Is the nanami boyfriend op serious? Or is it a bit. Please tell me it's a bit???

I'd like to say it's a bit, but I don't think it is! I'm trying to ✨soften the tone✨ a little.

Everyone welcome here (apart from mean ones...) 😊❤️
