I know it's a fandom favorite to be poking fun at Lieutenant Little but...

I just don't think that shining what was he was meant to do anyway. Lieutenant Little was not doer, he was a rock. A foundation.

When it came to it, he was the one who kept Terror in order when Crozier was recovering, he was the one who Hodgson turned to when he became unsure for his involvement in the Netsilik Massacre. He was the one who was leading the reconnaissance parties during the walk, keeping in mind the Tuunbaq sightings, keeping track of the Mutineers. When everything fell down around them, he was the one who kept again and again to do the right thing.

He was not the last for nothing.

It's not that he never did anything well, it's that we're seeing his accomplishments from the perspective of those who know he was never meant to win.

I think he doesn't get enough credit.

hey quick question do we ever see Edward Little do anything well or even competently in the entire series?

like Irving communicates with the Netsilik and Hodgson is key in hitting the Tuunbaq with a cannon and Dundy shares Fitzjames's ability to rally the troops and Gore is a bright shining boy however brief but like

i don't think we ever seen Little succeed at anything even incidentally

The Rift - Chapter Four

Pairing: Marcus Moreno x Marcus Acacius x Marcus Pike x f!Reader

Rating: Chapter is T, overall fic is E (18+ only, explicit smut)

Word Count: 2.9k

Warnings: ridiculous dialogue, pining between so many characters, unrealistic heroics technology used as plot contrivances

Summary: After the Heroics manage to close the Rift, trapping Marcus Acacius on the wrong side of time and space, the group enlists Marcus Moreno for help. The leader of the Heroics is still dealing with the fallout of the Rift, but he's fascinated by the unlikely visitor to their time... almost as much as he is interested in the FBI Agent who called him.

A/N: LOOK AT OUR LITTLE GUYS GO!!!! They're settling in nicely to their routine of talking late into the night ;)

Masterlist | Chapter Three | Next chapter>>

(Moreno)

Closing the Rift hadn’t solved all of Marcus’s problems, but then again, he should never have expected it to. Sure, the White House was much happier now that a giant crack in space was no longer glowing ominously just a few steps from the White House lawn, but the general public seemed to take any excuse to take to the streets. When the Rift had appeared, groups protested Heroics’ control of the area, despite Marcus’s repeated comments about being concerned with public safety and the general wellbeing of space and time in general. Now, predictably, people are angry that the Rift had been closed with little-to-no exploration of the phenomenon. And he gets it, really, he does. But his first priority had to be the safety of the city, not to mention the department’s accountability to the US Government. The powers that be had said “Shut the portal,” and Marcus wasn’t in any place to disobey direct orders.

He pinches the bridge of his nose again, pushing up the thick frames of his glasses as he does so, and glances at the muted plasma screen in the corner of his office. The news has been showing footage of the protests for hours now, and Marcus watches glumly as the camera zooms in on a hastily-written posterboard that reads “I WANTED TO SEE WHAT WAS IN THE LIBRARY OF ALEXANDRIA.”

His intercom buzzes, and Marcus angrily presses the ‘off’ button on the TV remote before answering, “Yes?” The metal stapler on his desk wobbles back and forth slightly, and the Heroic has to shake his head rapidly back and forth to force his powers back down to a low simmer.

“Someone from the FBI here to see you?”

Marcus’s stapler suddenly implodes on itself. Shit.

“Listen, will you National Security guys give it a rest?” he snaps irritably as the door opens. “We’ve got the situation under control. If I have any updates, I’ll contact you, but at the moment, consider no news is good news.”

The Agent looks surprised at the outburst. “I’m not from NSB,” he says slowly. 

“Which department is coming to yell at me, now?” Marcus deadpans.

“My name is Special Agent Pike, I’m with Art Crimes.”

“...Art Crimes?”

“And actually, I really need your help.”

“Oh shit. Oh shit. Oh, shit.” The Heroic paces back and forth in front of his desk taking in everything Agent Pike had just told him. This is what happens when you’re pulled in a million different directions. His own research department had been begging for access, the CIA was screaming at him every day about Homeland Security, and the fucking President called him personally to ask what he was doing to make the Rift go away.

This is how mistakes happen. Things get missed, people get hurt. He sinks, with defeat, into one of the chairs in front of his desk.

“This man, you said he’s at your apartment right now?”

“Not mine, no. My, uh… my friend’s. Actually, more of a consultant. Yeah, a consultant. She’s a curator at the National Gallery of Art,” Pike says, as if this explains everything. 

“Why involve this other person? This… museum employee?”

“I mean, she’s an expert,” the Agent says vehemently. “She’s a classical Archaeologist, was helping us with some smuggled artifacts relating to the Rift… Anyway, she’s brilliant, and I knew she’d be able to help, and sure enough, she’s speaking Latin like it’s a normal, everyday thing to do and teaching this guy English.”

“How long did you say this man has been in your custody?” Marcus asks.

“About eight hours.”

Marcus studies the Agent. He feels like being a public servant has beaten him down over the years, turning the once-optimistic superhero who wanted to save the world into the jaded, tired old man he is now. Agent Pike’s demeanor seems to indicate that he’d somehow escaped the gradual decline into pessimism. No, this was a man who loved his job wholeheartedly, and it showed. The fire in his eyes was galvanizing… and beautiful.

The Heroic stands abruptly. “I want to see him.”

(Pike)

Marcus hesitantly taps on your door, having no idea what to expect on the other side. 

Even still, when the tall, broad man who was formerly dressed in full Roman regalia and is now wearing a faded Bryn Mawr hoodie and pajama pants and holding a box of Cinnamon Toast Crunch answers the door, Marcus is struck dumb. 

“Hello!” the man announces seriously.

“Hey! Sorry. We’ve been practicing.” your face pops up near his elbow, giving Marcus a little wave.

“How are you today! I am fine, how are you!” the man at the door bellows loudly.

“What the…” Marcus Moreno mutters under his breath. 

“My. Name. Is. Marcus. Acacius,” Marcus Acacius says haltingly. 

“That’s his last name!” you pipe up with a giddy smile. “He is a general in the Emperor’s army.”

“See-ree-all,” Marcus Acacius says, holding up the box before grabbing another handful of his snack. 

“That’s a tough word,” you shrug. 

“You’re feeding a Roman general processed sugar from a box,” Marcus Pike says flatly.

“I’m sorry, I’m single-handedly teaching a Roman man how to speak modern English and you are criticizing my choice of food?”

“His name is Marcus?” the Hero asks skeptically. 

“Yep,” you chirp brightly. “Marcus, meet Marcus. And you’ve already met Marcus. Hi Marcus, I don’t believe we’ve been introduced.” You hold out your hand for the newcomer to shake. 

“This is chaos,” Marcus says as he takes your hand. 

The General also offers his hand. “Hello, how are you today! I am fine, how are you!”

“I’ve barely been gone two hours,” Marcus says with a disbelieving laugh. “And he’s speaking full sentences.”

“Tee-vee is magic,” the General tells him. “I also come here by magic.”

“Pretty much,” the Agent agrees with a chuckle. “You okay?” he asks, looking at you. 

“You showed up in the middle of the night with a man who happens to come from exactly the time of my expertise and area of study,” you say, leveling a finger at him. “I’m doing… amazing! Honestly, this is the most exciting day of my life.” Sobering, you glance between your new pupil and the leader of the Heroics. “What about him? Will he be able to return home?”

“Home,” Marcus Acacius nods enthusiastically. “To Roma.”

Marcus Pike looks at the hero with discerning eyes. He can see the lines on his face, the worry etched on his forehead. A man who’s in over his head, struggling to stay afloat as the pressure threatens to pull him under. He knows that feeling well. 

The man shakes his head sadly, looking pained.

“No?” the Roman asks. “No Roma?”

“I… I don’t know,” the hero admits. 

“Nescio,” you translate, and the man looks troubled. 

The Hero glances over at Marcus, and something in his return gaze seems to spur him into action. “No, hang on,” Moreno adds. “The Heroics caused this mess. The Heroics will fix it. I’ll see to it.” 

“How will I get in touch with you?” Marcus asks as he turns for the door. Moreno pauses, and looks back. “Let me give you my direct line, okay?” 

Wordlessly, Marcus hands him his phone and watches as the man taps in his number and hands it back. He presses the ‘Call’ button, and the Hero’s own phone dings in his pocket before Marcus cancels the call. 

“Now you’ve got mine, too.”

The Heroic flushes slightly, and nods. “I’ll be in touch. Marcus. And uh, Marcus.” He nods perfunctorily at the Roman general, and leaves. 

“That was weird,” you laugh, breaking the silence that had fallen over the apartment.

“What was?”

“It was like he had a crush on you or something,” you tell Marcus. 

He snorts. “I find that hard to believe.” 

“Why? You’ve a good-looking man.”

Marcus tries to ignore the way his heart aches at your words. “Sure,” he jokes.

“What? I’m serious.”

“He’s the leader of the Heroics. He could do better.” It’s meant to be another joke, but it comes out slightly more maudlin than intended. 

“That’s your protest? That he could do better? Hang on–Marcus, are you gay?”

“No!” The protest is far too loud. “I mean, I’ve dabbled. It’s not… y’know.”

“You should go for it,” you say, shrugging your shoulders in a way that’s meant to be nonchalant, but Marcus can see the strain behind your eyes with the effort of playing it cool. 

“That’s not who I’m interested in,” he says quietly. He forces himself to look directly into your eyes as he says this, despite the pounding in his heart. 

“Oh,” you whisper, your voice shaking slightly as you flash him a cautious, shy smile. 

“Quid est?”

The question cuts through the moment, and Marcus turns to see the General holding a souvenir snow globe of the Parthenon and looking very confused. 

“Your turn,” you tell Marcus with a laugh.

(Moreno)

It takes one week for the leader of the Heroics to call.

A few metal pens clink together in the sleek black canister on Marcus’s desk as he taps on the words ‘Agent Pike’ and puts the phone to his ear. 

“This is Pike,” comes the response at the other end of the call.

“Hi–” Marcus clears his throat. “Hi. It’s Marcus. Moreno.”

“I know.” He can hear the chuckle in the man’s voice. “I hope you’ve got good news.”

“Yes, and no,” Marcus admits. 

“Can I get the ‘yes’ first?” Agent Pike jokes. 

“My team thinks they can recreate the energy blast that created the Rift without causing a massive explosion or a uh… black hole that swallows the entire planet.”

“That sounds like a positive,” the Agent says optimistically.

“The bad news is that they don’t know how long it’s going to take to invent that kind of technology from scratch. But I’ve explained the situation and the urgency behind it and I’ve got people working ‘round the clock to recreate the Rift and get Marcus Acacius back home.”

“That’s great,” the other man says cheerfully. In the background, he hears your voice cheering as well. “Sorry, I put it on speaker,” Marcus laughs. 

“How is the General, by the way?” he asks. 

“Oh, he’s fine. Learning more about modern life, has quite a few more words under his belt. We took him shopping for some new clothes the other day, that was… fun.” 

Marcus snorts, trying to imagine a person from two thousand years in the past attempting to navigate a modern mall. 

“And the two of you… you’re handling it? Keeping it quiet?”

“Oh, yeah. Haven’t told anyone else, obviously. We’ve been taking turns going to work, taking a few vacation days here and there, not raising any suspicions about our sudden odd behavior.”

“I appreciate it,” Marcus tells him sincerely. “Oh hey–I almost forgot. I have something for you. Bit of Heroics tech that might help you guys out.”

“Oh yeah?”

“Mmhmm. Can I stop by your colleague’s apartment later today to deliver it?” 

“Yeah, of course,” the Agent answers. “We’ll see you then.”

(You)

This might be the best week of your life. 

Hiding a fugitive Roman General in your apartment probably should be stressing you out, but instead you’re having the time of your life. 

The situation, by default, has forced you into close proximity with Special Agent Pike, a man you’ve longed to know as more than just an occasional colleague from the moment you met him. At a minimum, he’s at your place every evening as soon as he can get away from work without people asking questions, but there have been several days that the both of you had called off and spent the day together with your temporary houseguest.

And then there’s Marcus Acacius. 

A brilliant man, he’s done his best to adjust to his new surroundings. He certainly cut an intimidating figure dressed in full regalia on your doorstep at three in the morning, but even in his new wardrobe, he still manages to look just as commanding. He almost looks ‘normal’ standing in your kitchen, wearing khakis and a button-up and filling a glass of water from the tap, but there’s always a hint of otherworldliness about him that no amount of modern clothing can camouflage. 

His eyes are sharp and astute, and his gaze always seems to make the heat rise to your cheeks. His presence seems to fluster Marcus as well; you notice him trip over his words on occasion, and you swear you saw the man blush when he had to help button the General’s new shirt after your little shopping trip. 

If anything, having the two of them in your home feels… cozy. 

You almost wish it didn’t have to come to an end. 

A knock at the door startles you out of your reverie. 

“Take bets, is that the pizzas or the Heroic?” Marcus chuckles from his spot on the couch. 

“It’s the pizza,” you call out when you open the door to the intoxicating smell of cheese, bread, and garlic. As you’re paying the deliverer, however, the stairwell door opens and Marcus Moreno walks hesitantly toward you. 

“Is this a bad time?” he asks. “You guys look like you’re about to have dinner.”

“Of course not! We thought maybe you’d like to stay and have some, so we got extra.”

“I wouldn’t want to intrude…” he begins.

Hearing the exchange, Pike joins you at the door and beckons the man in with a little jerk of his head. “Don’t be silly. Come have dinner with us.”

Marcus Moreno hesitates for just a moment longer, and then shrugs. “Okay.”

After spending most of the week together, you, Marcus, and Marcus have settled into a dinner routine. You line up and open the pizza boxes as the Roman grabs a stack of plates from the cabinet and Marcus fills four glasses with ice and water and carries them to the table.

“Hello, how are you?” Marcus Acacius asks the Heroic politely.

“Hey,” Moreno grins. “You look like you’re settling in.”

“I am very well,” the man answers. “Pizza is a very good food.”

The Hero laughs. “You’re right about that.” 

The four of you eat dinner in companionable silence. As usual, the General eats far more than anyone else, finishing off almost an entire pizza by himself. You can’t help but wonder about his life in Rome–what he does, what he eats, where he lives. You’ve tried to ask, but the language barrier forces your conversations to be short and simple. You wish you could talk to him, really talk. He must have some incredibly interesting things to say…

After dinner, you pour four glasses of wine. The Roman grins widely at you, flashing his teeth. “Vino, excellent,” and you smile back, ducking your head a little and subconsciously glancing over at Pike. You aren’t sure what you’re worried about–jealousy, maybe?–but the Agent nods fondly and raises his glass in a silent toast. 

“Let me show you what I brought,” the Heroic announces as the four of you sit in the living room. He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a couple of devices that are slightly larger and thicker than cell phones, but not by much. 

“We actually developed these to speak to aliens back when we were dealing with that situation with the Throqans several years ago. They were indispensable in helping us communicate and deescalate what could have turned into some kind of intergalactic war,” Marcus Moreno explains, switching one of the devices on. “It wasn’t until after that we realized we could program it to translate human languages. I had someone add a new function just for you. Here, say something.” He holds the device up to Marcus Pike. 

“Uh… this is me, saying something.” 

Immediately, the device emits a string of perfect Latin. The General perks up, cocking his head to the side and examining the device intently. 

“These will translate anything you say in English into Latin, or vice versa,” Moreno says, and the words are again repeated back in Latin. “You want to try?” he asks, holding the device out to Marcus Acacius, who takes it carefully in one large hand and says something into it.

“So many times every day I say to myself, ‘This thing must be magic,’ and I find I must say it once again.”

You let out a little shriek of delight. Marcus Pike laughs joyfully and claps the Heroic on the shoulder. 

“This is incredible! Marcus, thank you,” he says, his hand still on the man’s shoulder. You don’t miss how the very tips of the Hero’s ears turn pink. 

“It’s the least I could do. They all come with earpieces, too, so you can each automatically hear translations of everything that’s said.” 

The Roman speaks into the translator again. “Do you also bring news of when I might return home?”

Marcus Moreno bites his lip. “I wish I could say I did, but I don’t. The technology is still only theoretical. We’ve been running tests, but so far, nothing has been successful.”

Acacius listens to the translation, nodding slowly and looking somewhat disappointed. Suddenly, though, he brightens, and speaks again. 

“Ah well, if there are more pizza dinners in my future, then so be it.”

˗ˏˋHow Harry met Y/N ˎˊ˗

Part 7

Thursday Morning~

I woke up on the couch to arms wrapped around me. I look over and see Harry still sleeping. I have to pee so bad but I don't want to disturb him. Maybe I'll just suffer in silence. I slowly reached for my phone and check the time. 10:29! Doesn't he have to be somewhere right now? I nudged him lightly as he stirred still sleeping. I pushed him harder and he just mumbled. I'll just have to get up. I tried to move his arms from around my body but he just tightened his grip. Finally I stood up just to have him pull me back down. "Don't leave" He said holding me again. "Well we have to get up, it's half past ten!"

"Yeah but we can afford a few more minutes like this."

~~~

After cuddling on the couch for 20 more minutes. We finally got up and began getting ready. He said he was gonna go back home to change then come back for me. Today I'm going with him to meet his friends and watch them film a video. I'm a little nervous because I want to make a good impression. I mean I guess I shouldn't worry too much, they are just people right. Even if I do make a fool of myself, it's not like Harry and I are dating, well officially that is.

I finished getting ready and made myself a little snack. I also made sure to feed Leroy who was asleep in the spot we were sleeping on on the couch. Usually Leroy is hesitant and cautious with new people but he seemed to really like Harry. Harry actually had a couple cute moments with him too, he's just a huge lovebug and I love that about him. After watching his videos, I would have thought that he was a bit weird, chaotic, maybe even a little crazy but he has this whole different side of him where he is such a kind and sensitive guy. He actually seems so down to earth and he's a gentlemen! I've had other guys I fancied before but none of them were like this. Funny and sweet.

I was interrupted from my thoughts by a knock on my door. I quickly ran over and checked the peephole seeing it blocked with flowers. I slowly opened the door to see Harry standing there with a bouquet of flowers and a cheesy grin on his face. "Oh my gosh, what is this?" I said letting him in. "I thought I'd bring you a little gift." He said handing me the flowers as I took a huge whiff. They were my favorite flowers. I had just told him what my favorite flowers were in passing, I didn't think he would remember. I put the flowers in a vase I had by the door and went to fill it with water. When I came back, he was standing by the door on his phone. I went over to him and planted a kiss to his lips cupping both his cheeks. "What was that for?" He asked once I pulled away. "A thank you."

We walked outside to the Uber and made our way towards the filming location. Harry kept his hand on my leg the entire card ride making me gush a bit at his warm touch. We finally arrived at a building with a huge field. Harry took my hand as he led me towards the building. When we walked in, we were greeted by 8 guys standing around a table chatting with one of which was holding a camera. There were other people but they were moving around seemingly busy.

"Oh look who finally decided to arrive!" Josh said, I assume it was him based on the videos I've see. We made our way closer to the table as they began getting rowdy. "Who is this?" Ksi said coming over to me. I felt my body tense up as he came near. He towered over me since I was quite smaller than most here. "Okay okay, calm down, JJ back the fuck up." Harry said half jokingly half serious. JJ put his hands up in defense and walked back towards his previous spot. "Guys, this is y/n! Y/n this is Vik, Simon, Tobi, Josh, JJ, Ethan, and our camera guy [I'm not sure who films for side+, so im sorry] and you remember George" he said pointing to each one.

"Hi! Nice to meet you all!" I said cheerfully waving at them. "So is this your missus then bog?" Ethan asked grabbing Harry's shoulders from behind. "Nah mate we're just friends!" Just friends. Brilliant. "Yeah, just hanging out with my friend Harry today." I said in a clear passive aggressive tone. I can't believe he said we are just friends. I know he hasn't asked me out formally but I just assumed we were on the road to a proper relationship. Harry gave me a look but I won't bother with him anymore I guess. Maybe he was just stringing me along.

After a couple minutes of chatting, the boys went to film their video. Their video is a competition between two teams where they have to complete an obstacle course with a couple activities and challenges along the way. It sounds fun and based on the couple videos I've seen, I think it will be pretty funny. I'm already here, might as well enjoy my time.

" Okay so today we are doing the ultimate obstacle course challenge. Teams! JJ, right! Harry, left!" Simon said pointing them out on each side. "These are the team leaders." A roar of moans abrupted from the boys. "George and Josh on Harry's team and Vik, Tobi, and Ethan on JJ's team!" He continued. "Oh so the minorities on one team?" JJ said as everyone laughed. "I mean technically I am African so..." Ethan trailed off as the laughter continued. After that they made their way towards the first obstacle.

"Okay so the first obstacle, you have to choose one person to do the climbing wall. Who do you nominate?" They chose George and Tobi for this challenge. I watched as both boys went climbing as fast as they could with George almost slipping off multiple times. Tobi was actually very agile and doing surprisingly well. All the boys cheered as Tobi and George were neck and neck almost to the top. Unluckily George slipped on the second to last step and Tobi got the win. Harry's team groaned in defeat while JJ's team cheered and Ethan picked up Vik. I laughed at the sight because he just spun Vik around so easily showing how tiny and light he actually is. "1 point for team JJ"

They took a short break coming over to where I was and had snacks and drinks. "So what'd you think of that?" George asked me coming over, sitting next to me with a bottle of water in hand. "That was intense! You suck by the way." I giggled. He laughed wiping sweat off his forehead. "Oh like you could've done better!? Have you seen the size of that man, I might as well have been up against a large cat!" We both laughed at that comment. I saw Harry looking over at us, a slight tinge of annoyance on his face. I rolled my eyes at that and continued talking with George until they decided to start filming again.

》》》

"Okay so the next obstacle is the rope swing! Here the boys will have to spin around five times then leap onto the rope swing and hop over. If they don't make it then they fall into the freezing cold water! There are two rope swings so each team will have to do it at the same time and whoever finishes first gets the point." Simon explained. Each team got in a line ready to spin on a baseball bat. First up was Ethan and Harry. They spun around five times and began stumbling slowly towards the rope swing. Ethan almost fell but they both successfully went over. Next was JJ and Josh. They spun around and JJ immediately fell over. Tobi helped him up and pushed him towards the rope swing. JJ jumped and missed the rope entirely falling face forward into the water. Everyone broke into laughter as JJ got up and started screaming. "AHHH FUCK!! THAT WATER IS FREEZING!" he shouted flailing around. "oh wait there's a babe here- that water was nothing." He said trying to play it cool, winking at me making me giggle. I saw Harry shooting him a killer glare. Serves him right for what he said.

Next up was Vik and George, Tobi didn't have to do it since he won the first challenge. Vik spun around and immediately fell over struggling to stand up while George overtook and finished the swing with ease. "And that's how it's done boys." George said with a cocky grin. Harry's team cheered as they won the challenge making the other team stand there in disappointment over Vik. "Guys you already know I'm not athletic!" He defended himself making them burst out into laughter. They finished that scene and made their way towards the last challenge.

"Okay guys, now this challenge is a direct 1v1. We have the balance beam where one person from each team will fight each other while standing on a balance beam with foam jousting sticks. There will be best of three and each team will have to go three times. If you get knocked down, you fall and you lose. Okay who's going first?" Simon asked looking towards the team leaders. Tobi and Josh went first.

"Two brothers, now at arms. You shall commence!" Simon said bowing. Josh almost slipped but caught himself. He swung for Tobi but Tobi dodged quickly swiping at Josh's legs making him fall over. A mix of "ohs" and "ahs" abrupted from the boys. "Josh is a goner but not gone yet! Can he redeem himself?" Simon said as Josh stood back on the beam. Unfortunately Josh could not and was knocked over once again. "Guys is this a form of elder abuse?" Ethan laughed making everyone else laugh earning a scolding look and sigh from Josh.

Next up was Ethan and George. They stood on the balance beam holding the sticks. "Okay ready, set, go!" Simon announced as they began jousting. Ethan was putting up a good fight blocking George's hits but he was no match for George who kept dodging with ease. It was almost quite impressive how well both of them were doing. This round went on for a few minutes until Ethan finally hit George knocking him down. "Hold that!" Ethan said as the boys celebrated his small victory. "Don't worry mate you got him!" Harry said pumping George up for the next round.

George and Ethan began the next round slowly as they messed around a bit since Ethan felt too cocky. "No scope." Ethan said swiping at George's legs looking at the camera, missing him completely. George took this opportunity to quickly swipe him back, downing him right away. "Hold That!" George mocked as Harry and Josh cheered. Ethan looked up at him in defeat. "Alright, alright, don't get too cocky now mate!" Ethan said making me laugh at the irony.

Last round, they both stood on the beam. Once they started, it seemed like it could be anyone's game. It was neck and neck, each member swung and dogded like a pro. It was super intense as both teams stared, holding onto each other, praying that their teammate would win. This would decide if they would end it here or we would get Harry versus JJ.

Swing! George swung at Ethan but Ethan quickly dodged bending down almost losing his balance. He quickly caught himself and swung for George's legs making him jump up as everyone gasped at the sight of him jumping on a balance beam and not falling off immediately. George stabbed Ethan with the stick causing Ethan to stumble, struggling to regain his balance. It was touch and go for a second as Ethan wobbled but eventually stood upright swinging for George actually hitting him but not doing any damage. Ethan swung right and George blocked it, swinging right but faking it and hitting his left with the bottom of the stick causing Ethan to fall over. Cheers abruted once again from Josh and Harry as George had won this round. "What can I say, I'm good at everything, and I mean everything ladies." George said winking at the camera and towards me making me blush a little. I saw Harry smacked the back of his head lightly telling him something I couldn't hear.

"Okay well it's a tie between team Harry and team JJ! The final round will tell us who the true Victor will be!" Simon announced as the boys reset and prepared. Harry and JJ got on the podium next to the beam getting their gear on. "Y/n, if I win this, I'm taking you out for dinner tonight!" JJ yelled at me causing me to blush even harder. "Sure thing, but only if you win!" I shouted back, giving him a little wink. I saw Harry throw JJ a nasty glare. "What the hell?" I heard Harry whisper shout towards JJ. "Are you dating her?" JJ asked back. "Well, no but-"

"Alright then it's all good then." JJ said. No one really paid attention to this little conversation since they were fixing their mics or doing something else for a few minutes but I heard it. 'Well, no', it's clear to me, he doesn't want a relationship, I was in my thoughts when Simon began speaking. "Okay so Harry versus JJ! Let's see which team leader can win it for their team!" he announced as the boys got into position. I could clearly see Harry changed, before he had this laid back expression but now he looked more determined.

"Okay go!"

Harry immediately tried pushing JJ as hard as he could. "Woah, man's on the quick one!" JJ said laughing as Harry just glared at him. JJ swung for Harry but he dodged swiping at JJ's chest. He went backwards but only stumbled quickly standing back up. JJ swung for Harry managing to hit him, knocking him down. His team sighed and JJ's team cheered. "That one was for you!" JJ said pointing at me. I waved him off smiling as Harry stood back up. They started again and JJ swung for Harry, missing but Harry just full on tackled JJ onto the foam pit, throwing two punches at him.

"Oh my god." Simon said going into the pit with two of the other guys grabbing Harry, pulling him off JJ. "What the fuck Harry!" JJ shouted at he stood up. Harry was red in the face and didn't say anything. He walked away from everyone and sat down on the ground. Everyone's focus was on JJ who was bleeding from his lip. I think Harry only landed one punch on him but it cause him to bust his lip. I went over to Harry who was just sitting there with his head in his hands.

"Are you okay?" I asked as I came up behind him, taking a seat next to him. "Why are you asking me if I'm okay, shouldn't you be asking the guy with the busted face?" he said, avoiding my gaze. "Well, you just freaked out out of nowhere and punched him so I wanted to know if everything is okay with you"

"Okay, well I'm not okay. I'm not okay with you flirting with my mates in front of me." he said finally looking at me.

"You shouldn't even care about that! You said we're just friends!"

"I said that because I don't know what you want! I didn't want to assume it but if you did want a relationship then you wouldn't be flirting with those two." He said gesturing towards the boys.

" That's why you punched JJ!? You didn't have to resort to violence Harry."

"I know, I fucked it big time but he was literally saying all these things about you, I couldn't handle myself." he said, his eyes softening from the furious glare he had.

"You need to go apologize to him." I said grabbing his hand.

"You're right, and I'm sorry for this terrible behavior. Now, I would understand if you don't want anything to do with me anymore." he said.

"I didn't say that, but you do need to work this out first." he nodded as we stood up. We walked back towards the boys as they all stared at Harry. He walked up to JJ.

"I'm sorry for punching you." he told him. JJ just laughed. "No worries mate. Honestly it was my fault for doing that to you. I know she's your girl, I would never actually do that to you." He said as they bro hugged.

"What do you mean-" Harry tried to defend.

"You wouldn't just bring a random girl or friend to the shoot unless they meant something to you. It's alright Harry, we all know." He continued.

"Yeah, I guess you're right." Harry said grabbing my hand while all the boys teased making him turn a bit red.

After that whole ordeal, the boys finished the video with JJ's team actually winning but I think that's just because Harry decided to go easy on him after what he did.

"Congratulations to JJ's team for winning, I mean after what Harry did, I think it was only right to forfeit his team anyways but JJ proved himself worthy and won for his team." Simon announced as the boys cheered. Harry was hugging JJ and gave him a congratulatory kiss on the cheek. I laughed at the sight as JJ screamed 'disgusted' by it.

Once they wrapped up for the day, Harry and I said our 'goodbyes' as we made our way out. "So do you wanna give this a real try?" He asked as we sat in the uber.

"I think I do."

Yukigumi top star announcement

Asami Jun has been announced as the next top star of Yukigumi, along with Yumeshiro Aya who will remain top musumeyaku.

Aasa’s debut at Brillia Hall/Umegei in November will be a musical adaptation of the k-drama Crash Landing on You which appears to be available on Netflix.

First four issues of The Neopian Inquirer, the webcomic I'm running in The Neopian Times centered around Brillia and her dream of usurping the very newspaper her antics are being documented in.

Gravity Falls School-Related Headcanons

Both Dipper and Mabel are good students, although Mabel does occasionally get in trouble for getting distracted/not sitting still/talking in class, however, they're both generally considered to be good kids.

Dipper generally excels in all of his academic subjects, however his favourite subjects are biology and ancient history. He's usually pretty quiet in class, except every now and again he says either the most unhinged or most badass thing ever and everyone is freshly reminded that yes, Dipper Pines is, in fact, in this class (this is heavily inspired by my best friend who is exactly like that). Dipper doesn't hate PhysEd as much as he used to pre-Gravity Falls, however he's still not a huge fan of it.

Mabel's best subjects are the artistic ones, and she is instantly beloved by all the art teachers. She does a ton of extracurriculars, partially because she has a bunch of interests, and also because she has a tendency to join clubs and such because her friends/guys she's interested in are in them, and she has participated to some degree in every school musical she's had the chance to take part in. The only class she really struggles with a lot is maths, because it's 'too boring and logic-y' for her to stay focused on, particularly if Dipper isn't there to help her. She's also a cheerleader, because of course she is.

Friendgroup wise, Mabel has a lot of friendgroups. She has friends from all of her various classes and extracurriculars, friends she knows from elementary school (I had a long mindblank whereupon I forgot the word for 'primary school' in the USA, just thought I should let you know), and of course, she has extrovert-adopted Dipper and his friends. Despite this whole army of friends, she doesn't have any particularly close friends in Piedmont, and if she's asked who her best friend is, she'll respond with Candy and Grenda, who remain the only people who can quite match her energy.

Dipper, meanwhile, has pretty much had the same one best friend, named Ethan DiMarcos, forever. The two of them have very similar interests (although Ethan can't quite match Dipper's enthusiasm for all things paranormal), and tend to keep to themselves much of the time, and have pretty much had each other's back. While I'm not a huge fan of the idea that Dipper has been relentlessly bullied his entire school career and has no friends, it is canon that he has been victim of some bullying, and he's certainly not popular. Post-Gravity Falls, I think he's actually able to stand up to the bullies a little better, and generally he and Ethan have each other's backs. They do have a third friend, Paige Li, who they only met at the beginning of high school, because she was trying to find other DD&MD fans. Paige has had a crush on Dipper for ages, but despite Ethan and Mabel trying to pull strings, nothing is likely ever to come from it. Speaking of Ethan and Mabel, they did date for about a month in ninth grade, which horrified Dipper, especially since he was put in the middle of it when they broke up, thankfully amicably.

Now, I have said plenty about the Pineses, let's talk about what the other characters are like in school:

Candy's best subjects are chemistry, physics and music, and manages to be an impressively good student, despite reading fanfiction in class.

Grenda isn't necessarily the greatest student in most classes, however, she's BRILLIANT at English. For all she lacks in verbally diplomatic skills, she's incredibly smooth on paper. Grenda also, unsurprisingly, is also very good at PhysEd.

Pacifica's best subject is mathematics, and unsurprisingly she excels particularly at any finance-related maths. She's also the star of the school's debate team, because she has the power to crush people in the grip of logic. She also refuses point-blank to join the cheer team, even though they really want her.

Gideon's true calling is the stage, so drama class is his best class, although he's a brilliant student at most subjects.

Wendy and her friends are decidedly not good students, as they're all more interested in having fun and causing trouble than doing work (except Thompson, of course). This results in them being decidedly not the teacher's favourites.

I think that's all I got for now, thanks for reading!

The Phoenix Burns

Chapter 7: Fight of wills

Just as y/n extended her hand, the shadows around them seemed to shift, the darkness growing heavier and more menacing.

A cold chill ran down Y/N’s spine as she felt a presence behind her. Slowly, she turned, her eyes widening as she saw a tall, dark figure emerging from the shadows. The man was clad in a long coat, his face partially obscured by a plague doctor’s mask that gleamed ominously in the dim light.

“Ah... hard to admit I can't control my own child but lately Eri here's been defying me no matter what i try,” the man stated casually moving closer, his voice low and unnervingly calm. The authority in his tone made Y/N’s blood run cold.

She instinctively positioned herself between the girl and the figure, her heart pounding in her chest. “Who are you?” she demanded, trying to keep her voice steady despite the fear gripping her.

The man tilted his head slightly, regarding her with an air of detached interest. “I'm her father, Chisaki,” he replied cryptically, his eyes narrowing behind the mask. “And right now, I need my daughter to come back to me”

Y/N’s mind raced, trying to make sense of the situation. She glanced down at the girl, who was now clinging to her leg, her small body shaking with fear. There was no way she was going to let this man take her. She felt a firm hand grip her shoulder. Looking over to the green haired man they would share the same understanding before she turned back.

“No,” Y/N said firmly, squaring her shoulders. “You’re not taking her.”

The man sighed, almost as if he was disappointed by her defiance. “You don’t understand what you’re dealing with,” he said, taking a step closer. “This child is not your concern. Hand her over, and you can walk away unscathed.”

Y/N felt a surge of protective anger rise within her. “I don’t care who you are or what you want,” she snapped. “She’s not going anywhere with you.”

The man’s eyes flickered with something akin to irritation. “You’re making a mistake,” he warned. “This will not end well for you.”

Before Y/N could respond, the girl’s grip on her leg tightened, and she looked up at Y/N with wide, tear-filled eyes. “I'm sorry,” the girl whimpered, her voice barely a whisper. “You should go...”

Y/N’s resolve hardened. “I won’t let him hurt you again,” she promised, stepping back to put more distance between them and the man. “you're gonna be ok, I promise.”

The man’s gaze darkened, and he reached out a gloved hand toward them. “Enough of this,” he said coldly. “You leave me no choice.”

As he spoke, the air around them seemed to grow heavy with a suffocating pressure, and Y/N’s heart raced as she realized that this would not end with a simple fight. He was dangerous—far more dangerous than she had anticipated.

But that wasn't gonna stop her.

“Deku!” Y/N shouted, her voice ringing out through the forest as she called for backup. "Take Eri and alert the rest, I'll distract him"

The man’s eyes narrowed further, and a sinister smile played at the corners of his lips. “Ah, so you’re not alone,” he mused. “This might be more interesting than I thought.” Tilting his head slightly, his gaze hardening as he observed her defiance. Without a word, he moved his hand in a sharp, deliberate motion, and the ground beneath them began to shift unnaturally. Rocks and dirt disintegrated into dust, the very earth itself crumbling away as his quirk—Overhaul—began to take effect.

Y/N’s eyes widened in horror as she realized the extent of his power. The ground beneath her feet gave way, and she stumbled back, clutching the girl tightly as she struggled to stay upright.

"Run!" Y/N shouted, pushing the girl away towards Deku as she faced the man head-on. She couldn’t let him get close—not with that kind of power.

The man didn’t give her a chance to retreat. In an instant, he lunged forward, his hand outstretched to grab her. Y/N reacted on instinct, drawing on the energy stored within her from the sun. Her quirk flared to life, a brilliant light emanating from her palms as she unleashed a burst of solar energy directly at him.

The energy blast struck the ground between them, creating a blinding flash of light and heat. Overhaul was forced to halt his advance, his expression momentarily surprised by the intensity of the attack. But the surprise quickly faded, replaced by a cold, calculating focus.

He stepped forward again, and Y/N felt the earth tremble as his quirk began to disassemble the rocks and trees around them, turning them into jagged shards that hovered in the air. With a flick of his wrist, he sent the deadly debris hurtling toward her.

Y/N’s heart raced as she dodged to the side, narrowly avoiding the barrage of sharp projectiles. She spun around, sending another wave of solar energy crashing into the ground, hoping to disrupt his control over the environment. But Overhaul was relentless, his movements precise and controlled as he continued to manipulate the matter around them.

He’s not just powerful, Y/N realized with a sinking feeling. He’s a strategist. Every move he makes is calculated, and he’s not giving me a single opening.

But she couldn’t afford to hesitate. The girl was still in danger, and Y/N had to protect her no matter the cost.

Drawing in a deep breath, Y/N focused her energy, gathering as much sunlight as she could from the remnants of the day. The air around her began to shimmer with heat, and she could feel the power building within her, ready to be unleashed.

Overhaul, sensing the change, narrowed his eyes and raised his hand again. The ground beneath Y/N’s feet began to crack and shift, the earth splitting apart as he prepared to disassemble her.

But Y/N was faster.

With a fierce cry, she unleashed a massive blast of solar energy, directing it straight at Overhaul. The light was blinding, the heat intense enough to warp the air around it as it surged forward. For a moment, it seemed like she had overwhelmed him, the sheer force of her quirk pushing him back.

But then, to her horror, she saw him raise his hand, and the energy blast began to disintegrate, unraveling before her eyes as Overhaul’s quirk took hold. The brilliant light that had filled the forest was snuffed out in an instant, and the energy that Y/N had poured into the attack vanished into nothingness.

He can disassemble energy too?! Y/N thought in disbelief.

Before she could react, Overhaul moved with terrifying speed, closing the distance between them in a single stride. His hand shot out, and Y/N barely had time to dodge. His fingers brushed against her arm, and she felt a searing pain as the skin began to disintegrate, the flesh breaking down at his touch.

Y/N bit back a scream, her vision blurring as she stumbled back, clutching her injured arm. She could see the raw muscle beneath the surface, the damage rapidly spreading as Overhaul’s quirk continued to take effect.

But she couldn’t afford to fall here. She had to protect the girl, had to survive.

Summoning every ounce of her willpower, Y/N channeled the remaining energy within her, focusing it into a concentrated beam of light that she aimed directly at Overhaul’s chest. She knew it was risky—if he disassembled it again, she’d be out of options—but she had no choice.

The beam shot forward, and Overhaul’s eyes widened ever so slightly as he realized the intensity of the attack. This time, he didn’t try to disassemble it. Instead, he raised his arm, the ground around him shifting as he created a wall of debris to block the attack.

The beam collided with the makeshift barrier, and the impact sent a shockwave through the forest, the ground trembling beneath them. Overhaul staggered back, his barrier crumbling under the force of the blast.

Y/N didn’t waste a second. She charged forward, using the last of her energy to close the distance between them. Her arm throbbed with pain, but she pushed through it, her determination driving her forward.

She had to end this.

But just as she reached him, Overhaul’s hand shot out again, this time aiming for her chest. Y/N twisted at the last second, but his fingers brushed against her side, and she felt the same searing pain as before, her ribs cracking as his quirk began to disassemble her body.

Y/N cried out, collapsing to the ground as the pain overwhelmed her. She could feel her strength slipping away, her vision darkening as the world around her began to blur.

“Pathetic,” Overhaul muttered, his voice cold and detached as he looked down at her. “You should have surrendered when you had the chance.”

Y/N struggled to stay conscious, her breath coming in ragged gasps as she fought against the darkness closing in around her. She couldn’t die here. Not like this.

But just as she felt herself slipping away, a burst of light filled the clearing, and Bakugou appeared, his explosive energy crackling around him as he charged at Overhaul with a ferocious roar.

“Who. The. Fuck. ARE YOU?!” Bakugou's scream only grew louder with each word until he was shouting at the top of his lungs, the raspy undertone hinting to how he had just woken up as his palms ignited with a massive explosion that sent Overhaul flying backward.

Y/N’s vision blurred, as she leaned against a tree, clutching onto her wound. She could barely make out the figures in front of her as Bakugou launched himself at Overhaul, his relentless assault driving the man back. The ground shook with the force of their clash, the air filled with the sound of explosions and the crackling of energy.

The man recovered quickly, his eyes narrowing behind the mask as he assessed Bakugou with a new level of interest. “So, you must be the infamous Dragonblood heir,” he said, his voice laced with a dark amusement. “I’ve heard quite a bit about you.”

Bakugou snarled, his explosive energy flaring up around him. “You’re dead,” he growled.

The man simply chuckled, his calm demeanor unfazed by Bakugou’s threat. “Such bravado,” he remarked. “But you’ll find that I’m not so easily intimidated.”

With a swift motion, the man reached into his coat, pulling out a vial filled with a dark, swirling liquid. “Let’s see how you handle this,” he said, tossing the vial to the ground.

The vial shattered on impact, and a thick, noxious cloud erupted from it, quickly enveloping the area. Y/N coughed, her vision blurring as the cloud surrounded them, and she felt a wave of dizziness wash over her.

“Bakugou!” she called out, struggling to stay conscious as the world around her began to spin.

Bakugou’s voice cut through the haze, sharp and commanding. “Don’t breathe it in! Look at me y/n...you're gonna be ok just stay with me damnit!" She felt his warm body against hers, two big arms holding onto her frame before darkness claimed her consciousness.
