ăShangsi Festival/Double Third Festival/äžć·łçŻă
Double Third Festival or Shangsi Festival (traditional Chinese: äžć·łçŻ) is a Chinese festival celebrated on the third day of the third month of the Chinese calendar.
It is said that the origin of this festival comes from the Dinner Party at the Qushui River during the Zhou Dynasty (about 1100â221 BC). Others say its origins come from the ceremonial custom of getting rid of evils by bathing in the river. On this day, people would hold a sacrificing ceremony on a riverside to honor their ancestors, and then take a bath in the river with herbs to cleanse their bodies of filth. Following that, young men and women would then go for a spring outing in which many of these scenes were described in Shi Jing (The Book of Songs).
The Shangsi Festival activities have changed over the course of subsequent dynasties. The entertainment feast and praying for descendants along the riverside were added in the Han Dynasty (206 BC-220 AD). It was after the Wei and Jin dynasties (220â420 AD) that the festival developed into the Double-Third (Shangsi) Festival that is fixed on the third day of the third lunar month.
In modern times, to observe this festival, people would go for an outing by the water, have picnics, and pluck orchids. It is also a day for invoking cleansing rituals to prevent disease and get rid of bad luck. The day is also traditionally considered to be a possible birthday of the Yellow Emperor.
The ancient traditions of Shangsi are mostly celebrated by several communities spread out among the provinces today, such as the ancient village of Xinye
The great calligrapher Wang Xizhi mentions this festival in his famous work Preface to the Orchid Pavilion Poems, written in regard to the Orchid Pavilion Gathering during the Six Dynasties era.
The Han ethnic people in some places also have special customs on March 3rd. For example, Hunan and other places have the tradition of "March 3rd, boiled eggs with ground (shepherd's) purse", while Anhui and other places have the tradition of eating Baba( a kind of bread, with meat):

w.c: 2.4k

Once the members sent out their last waves and finger hearts to the adoring fans and locals in the vast festival crowd, they made their way back to their temporary dressing room to catch their breath and have a celebratory drink or two. Brimming with adrenaline and energy due to their momentous performance, they erupted in enthusiastic greetings as soon as their dear manager entered the room, a few of them draping their arms around your shoulders to give you a quick hug.
âManager-nim, did you like the show?â San spoke up, bringing his glass up to his mouth, taking a small sip of the potent liquor.
âYou know you can just call me by my name, San, and I thought you guys absolutely killed it, like always,â you replied, scanning their faces, lightly adjusting the hem of your work blazer. No matter how many times you had all of their eyes and attention on you, you couldnât seem to get used to it. It always made you feel hot under the collar, not knowing what was going through each of their minds when they looked at you the way they did. With interest. Hunger.
San couldnât help but smirk, his dimples visible. You had taken the bait. He watched Yunho serve you a glass of whiskey. âYouâre right. Weâre way past titles, arenât we? Especially considering the way I had you bent over for me right after our set last weekend.â
You choked on the liquor, your body suddenly feeling hot, especially under the heated gaze of the men standing around you. âS-San, behave yourself.â
He lightly licked at his lips, his gaze sharpening, ready to add to the growing heaviness of the atmosphere in the room. âDonât act so coy now, sweetheart. You know better than that, donât you?â
You bit into your bottom lip, looking up to Yunho for help, only to find that he was giving you an increasingly perverse smile, like he was reminiscing about something filthy.
Yunho reached down to wrap a lock of your hair around his jewelry adorned finger, sighing, âWe could all hear the way Sannie fucked your brains out, doll, but you wanted us to hear, didnât you? Even though youâre our manager, youâre still our good little slut, yeah?â
Something clicked into place inside your brain like it usually did when they talked to you like this. You could finally stop being so uptight and in control, instead allowing the eager members to do as they pleased with you. âYeah, I am,â you nodded shyly, your insides on fire.
San took a step towards you, reaching out to run his fingers along your collar bone. âCan I ask you something?â
Your breath caught inside your throat. You knew what he was going to ask. You knew what they wanted. Despite the professional relationship you had with the members, you always seemed to end up in increasingly unprofessional situations with them. You couldnât help it, not when they always made you feel so good. Wanted. Craved. âSay it, SanâŠ.â
His pointer finger drifted down your chest, along the seam of your blazer, gazing down at you. âCan we make you our whore, Manager-nim?â
The members exchanged pleased glances with one another, some of them pulling at the crotch of their tailored pants.
âAs long as someone locks the door, okay?â you answered underneath your breath, your eyes beginning to glaze over with lust.
San simply took a step around you, running his hands up and down your shoulders, coaxing you out of your blazer and unzipping your work dress, presenting you to his beloved members like you were a treat â one they would savor together.
-
âDonât pass out on us now, baby,â Sanâs husky voice attempted to reach you through the fog you were in, his fingers gently rubbing at the fresh load that had splattered onto your flushed cheek, sliding his digits into your panting mouth for you to clean. âHow many was that, hm? How many cocks have been inside you so far? Can our slutty manager remember?â
You stopped counting long ago, too fucked out to think about whose cock had already rearranged your insides and who had stuffed your ass full. You couldnât even remember who had fucked your face either, but your sore jaw was proof that it was most likely one of the more gifted members. âI-i donât know how many, just want more,â you whined out, looking up at San past your wet lashes.
âYeah, you always want more from us, donât you, baby? Want us to go to our limit? Want us to give you our all, huh? Are you going to milk us all dry like a good slut?â
You could hardly listen to his breathy, self-serving monologue, not with the way Wooyoung was gripping your hips and shoving his thick cock into you with abandon, like you were his own personal sex doll. âUh-huh, wanna be good for you allâŠâ
âHow precious,â San sighed under his breath, all while he jerked himself off, beads of pre-cum spilling out of the twitching tip, watching the way his closest friend pumped himself in and out of your clenching hole, noticing the way his hips began to stutter. âThen, be good and take Wooyoungâs load inside that tight little cunt of yours, just like you took our Captainâs and Seonghwaâs earlier, okay? Can you do that for us, baby? Can you be our pretty little cum dump?â
You couldnât speak, simply responding by squirting all over Wooyoungâs thrusting cock, just about ready to fall over from the overwhelming pleasure, but unable to with the way Mingi was behind you, his heaving chest pressing into your back, his ringed fingers lazily groping at your sore tits, balls-deep in your tight ass.
âPretty baby, our pretty girl,â Mingi praised in a gravelly voice, his lips against your ear, squeezing your tits just as his groans began to crescendo, driving himself into you a few more times before he held still, previous loads leaking out of your ass and down the sides of his veined cock to the base as he filled you up again. âCan you feel that, babydoll? Feel the way Iâm stuffing you full of cum? It feels so good, you want to cry, donât you?â
All you could do was nod drunkenly, tears pricking at the corners of your hazy eyes, your trembling thighs growing more and more numb.
âLook at her, guys, sheâs cumming just from being bred,â Wooyoung panted out, his hands squeezing into your sides, holding you still on his pulsing cock, not attempting to pull out until he was sure your inner walls were coated with his cum, chuckling smugly along with his fellow members at the way you desperately drew in another shaky breath and simply whined instead of forming words. âPoor slut canât even talk. Someone should shoot their load down her throat. Maybe itâll help ground her.â
âWay ahead of you,â Yeosang softly interjected, giving you a princely smile as he walked up to where you were positioned on the lengthy couch. He ran his slender fingers through your hair, slowly angling your head back as he did, bringing his slicked-up cockhead to your parted lips. âSay âahhâ, darling.â
Just as you obeyed, you watched Yeosangâs pretty flushed face contort in pleasure, reaching out to wrap your fingers around his pulsing length, milking it for all itâs worth, rope after rope of hot cum shooting into the back of your throat, a few dribbles remaining on your tongue. You were so full of cum, all of your holes were used up, and yet you needed more. âNot enoughâŠMore, please. Iâm being such a good girl, arenât I?â
Sanâs teeth sunk into his bottom lip, sharing glances with the other members, squeezing around the base of his cock to keep himself from busting right then and there. âGuys, I think we broke our manager.â
âIsnât that the point? Look at her. She loves it,â Wooyoung pointed out, motioning to your blissed-out face, before he finally pulled out of you, reaching down to spread open your used hole, pleased sighs echoing inside the room. âLook, Sannie, her cuntâs all messy now. Ran through. Just the way you like it, huh, you sick fuck? You want sloppy seconds?â
San nodded his head, salivating, practically in a trance.
âThen, hurry up and shove your cock inside her before my cum leaks out,â Wooyoung tsked, climbing off of the cum-stained couch and smacking his hand against Sanâs ass to get him to spring into action, which he did, laying down on his back and sliding you down onto his cock inch by inch, but not before he tapped his leaking cockhead over your swollen clit a few times for good measure.
Sanâs dimples accompanied his shit-eating grin as he bottomed out, slowly running one of his hands up your lower abdomen to feel the outline of his stiff cock. âItâs so big inside, isnât it, Manager-nim? Am I stretching you out nice and wide?â
All you could do was whimper pathetically, because not only were you taking Sanâs curved cock inside your cunt, but meanwhile Mingi had been showing Yunho the way your hole had begun to gape after the rough treatment you had taken, especially from someone with his size, knowing it was best that he prepped you for his best friend, knowing the term âhorse cockâ didnât even begin to describe what Yunho had to offer you. âItâs all for you, bro. Come and get it,â Mingi mused huskily, getting out of Yunhoâs way so that he could replace him, one hand on your ass to keep it spread open for everyoneâs viewing pleasure, as your hole slowly swallowed up Yunhoâs obscene girth.
San and Yunho seemed to be in the middle of an intense competition, considering the way they both would continually thrust into you harder, and faster, grabbing at your tits and hips for leverage to fuck into you even deeper than before, if that was possible. âI-itâs not aâfuckârace, guys,â you cried out, suddenly being pressed back into Yunhoâs warm chest when San sat up on the couch and folded you up, jack-hammering himself into you, using you like a cocksleeve.Â
âYes, it is, and Iâm gonna knock you up first, not this loser,â San grunted out in between shaky moans, smiling with his canines at you, then at Yunho past your shoulder, who responded by bucking his hips up into you so roughly, he had to wrap his arms around your middle to keep you in place.Â
âIâm fucking her ass, dumbass, I canât even knock her up if I wanted to,â Yunho replied breathlessly, shaking his head, giving San a playful smile, before pressing his lips to your earlobe. âAnd I want to, tiny. Wish I could.âÂ
âNot with that attitude,â San huffed, blowing his sweaty bangs out of his eyes, his vision beginning to blur with the sudden onset of pleasure surging through him. âIâm going to fuckingâunnnhâfill up your slutty cunt with my cum, baby. Gonna make it so messy. And youâre, fuck, youâre so tight now. Thatâs our good cumslut.âÂ
âThe perfect cumslut,â Hongjoong interrupted in a low voice, suddenly towering over you, holding his cock near your mouth, nodding approvingly when you began to suck and lick at the tip. âThatâs right. You love Captainâs cock the most, donât you, pretty girl?âÂ
Seonghwa pushed his way past the other thirsty members who were hovering around you like vultures, slipping his fingers into your hair and gently guiding you to his own cock, cooing at you approvingly when you let it hit the back of your throat. He smiled smugly at Hongjoong, who was now side-eyeing him. âStay mad. Itâs not my fault she has taste.âÂ
âYou better watch it, Seonghwa.â
âYou can watch our slut suck my cock.âÂ
Hongjoong grumbled to himself, reaching down to tug your head back just firmly enough to lead you back to his cock, before you took it upon yourself to sandwich their lengths together so that you could please them both at once. They stopped bickering and instead held onto each other, biting into their lips as their highs began to take over.Â
It was then that San and Yunho emitted similar sounding guttural groans, fully sheathing themselves inside you, their fingers squeezing tightly into your hips from either side.Â
âCumming,â they both exhaled, resting their heads on either side of your shoulder, beads of sweat dripping down their jaws and along their straining necks.Â
Just as hot cum poured into both of your used holes, Seonghwa and Hongjoong began to shudder and grunt out obscenities, aiming their milky streams towards your lolled-out tongue.
San suddenly waved for Jongho to come closer, pulling out just enough so that obscene globs of cum began to leak out of you, making you whine. âHere, cum inside her, JJong. I want my favorite maknae to finish our cumslut off.â
Jongho gingerly positioned himself near your gushing entrance and plugged you back up with his thick, throbbing cock, his strong thighs smacking into your delicate ones as he vigorously bounced you on his lap. âWant it?â he simply asked near your lips, making you blush.
âPlease!â
Just as Jongho pounded his load and the others deep into your womb, Wooyoung, Yeosang, and Mingi pushed their way closer to you, vigorously jerking themselves off in order to leave their own individual mark on you for the second or third time, extremely pleased with themselves once they covered their dear managerâs face and body in their cum.Â
Once you all came down, you found that you couldnât quite operate your body properly, not when your lower half was completely numb and throbbing with residual pleasure. San and Yunho took it upon themselves to cuddle you from either side, while Jongho gently rubbed your tummy in circles, wondering whose load would knock you up first. Only time would tell.
âHow was that?â San asked softly near your ear.Â
âWe werenât too rough with you, were we?â Yunho murmured, biting his lip.Â
âHow are you feeling, Manager-nim?â Jongho added gently, patting your tummy.
You sighed gently, reaching up to pat their heads, smiling at the men around you. And to think you actually got paid for this. You couldnât have asked for a better job. âGuysâŠIâm fine, and for the record, it was so good, I donât think I can ever go back to having normal sex again. Iâm a bit concerned, actually.â
The rest of the members began to laugh, and you joined along, before clearing your throat, suddenly feeling uncomfortably sticky, looking down to see what you had all done to the poor couch. âOkay, so, whoâs going to clean this mess up? And, itâs not going to be me. I canât move my legs. IâŠthink you guys actually broke me.â
San looked over to Wooyoung, who was already rolling his eyes, pointing dramatically at him. âI told you!â

two-part something (shouto x reader)
wc: 1.3k
contains: christmas, holiday parties, santa, mid-20's pro-hero!shouto x assistant!reader
full fic sequel: three-part honesty
a/n: just a lil writing exercise on shouto! first time writing him hehe
shoutoâs late to his agencyâs holiday party tonight.Â
he breathes out, warmth floating as white puffs from his lips. the heating system on his office floor has been turned off, subtext directed solely to him: whoeverâs here today, at this time, shouldnât be.
his fingers move deftly around his waist, routinaryâutility belt unbuckling as he reaches his desk.Â
the venue for tonight is on one of the lower floorsâa function room where briefings and press conferences are normally held. the number of attendees has grown compared to last yearâs, sidekicks doubling and staff tripling; expected, given the agencyâs projected growth next quarter.Â
this is the agencyâs third move since humble days in a rented studio unit (one shouto stubbornly and adamantly paid for fully, on his own), but one thingâs invariably stayed the sameâ
shoutoâs office has always existed in its own space, whether tucked in a corner or spread out over an entire floor.
and wherever that space is, so are you.Â
he settles in his seat, leather creaking as he twists to stretch his back. itâs been a long night, being dispatched earlier for an emergency downtown. his hand reaches for the folder on his desk, fingers swiping to release the yellow paper clip on the far left cornerâevidence of your presence.Â
since being hired as his assistant five years ago, youâve devised a system for shouto that he now deems essential to keeping his entire agency afloat. his own urgency for paperwork hinges on the color of your paper clips (blue for next month, green for next week, yellow for tomorrow, and red for now). Â
he should listen to you; the details of this eveningâs take-down can be set aside for tomorrowâtomorrow, when everyoneâs allowed to clock-in midday for the sake of tonightâs festivities. knowing you though, youâll still show up early, if only to go over his desk, ensuring to swap that yellow paper clip for red.Â
if he finishes this now, you wonât need to ensure anything; in all the years youâve been his first and only assistantâa perfect match for how much of a workaholic he isâyou might actually opt to sleep in for once.Â
besides, itâs more productive if he gets it over with; crimes and mishaps never take breaks to party, after allâeven during the holidays.Â
thatâs what heâll tell you, at least.Â
the partyâs more for everyone else than him, anyway.Â
he clicks his pen, letting out another puff of warm air as he spreads the document in front of him:Â
page 1: basic information. identification details, time markers, a summary of the take-down.Â
page 2: breakdown of events. scene-by-scene, additional comments, a two-beat knock on his door.Â
then comes your voice, soft, unsureâ
âsir?âÂ
âbefore you step inside, heels clicking against the natural stone finish of his office floor.Â
he looks up, wide-eyed, piercing gray and blue.Â
your gaze flits to the papers in front of him, eyebrows scrunching before you sigh. thereâs an all-too-familiar smile on your face, a quiet chuckle brought about by how characteristic it is of him to be in this situation right now.Â
âsir, that report is tagged yellow.âÂ
he shifts, looking at your paper clip; without a word, the leather of his seat crinkles again. itâs like this with shouto sometimes, youâve come to learn: a non-response is a response on its own.
when his eyes meet yours, you shiver.Â
goosebumps litter the sides of your arms, the decision to forego your blazer leaving yourself exposed to the chill of tonightâs office air. you try to hide it, but some things are impossible to keep from shouto.Â
of course he notices your jaw quivering.Â
âare you cold?â he stands up immediately, already moving halfway out from behind his desk.
âiâm okay, sir,â you stop him just as quickly, hands motioning for him to stay where he is.
two beats of silence find him tilting his head, gaze as intense as itâs always been pointed towards you.Â
âshouto.â
âpardon, sir?â you step closer, leaning forward.Â
âcall me shouto.âÂ
the red fabric in your hand almost slips from your hold.Â
this isnât the first time shoutoâs insisted on you using his nameâhe offered it up the moment he hired you, and the day you searched store after store for his thrifted leather chair during the agencyâs second move; heâs suggested it plenty over the years, a casual reminder that itâs no big dealâif the world can call him shouto, so should you.Â
pro-hero shouto, top three in the charts.Â
pro-hero shouto, late to his agencyâs holiday party because of paperworkâhis tendency to be a workaholic.Â
pro-hero shouto, asking you to call him shouto, but not in the way the world does.Â
his eyes donât leave yours as you blink, swallowing down your feelings (inappropriate, you tell yourself).Â
âshouto.â you repeat.Â
he nods slightly, a small, imperceptible lift to the corners of his lips. thereâs an awkward pause as he looks down to the papers on his desk then up at you again.
âthe party,â you clear your throat, smoothing out the fabric between your fingers, âyouâre running late to your own party, siâshouto.âÂ
he tilts his head again, confused, âis this party not for everyone else?âÂ
you blinkâheâs got you there.Â
âi guess thatâs true,â you sigh, chuckling. a pause, âthat report is still yellow, though.âÂ
blue and gray land on white, bond papers spread out on his desk. he could argue with you, but where has that ever gotten him? youâve kept him in check for yearsâitâs how heâs managed to stay on top of things.Â
he looks down at his jumpsuit, the same shade of blue since he was 15. not much has changed with the design of his hero suit, just an overall sleeker design fit to match his age. the utility belt still exists, albeit more compact and less clunky; a similar modification was done to the straps that run down the sides of his chest.Â
if anything, the biggest change is how the suit has molded around himâshoulders more defined, arms large enough for the fabric to cling onto it. shoutoâs build has always been lean, but the areas of defined muscle stick out more evidently now that heâs older, much taller and wider. Â
âi donât have a costume.â he pouts.
you grin, stepping closer to his desk, hips digging into the edge. the red santa hat unfurls from your hands as you wave it in front of himâa perfect match to the shades of his hair.Â
he blinks before you catch it, the slight curve of his lips as he leans forward, dipping his head low enough for you to reach the top of it. you tiptoe just a bit when you open up the hat to place it over his head.
youâre gentle with your touch, fingers running through the strands of his hair lightly; you tuck them neatly underneath the fluffy white rim of the santa hat.Â
(itâs warmer near him, you noticeâhis quirk regulating a circumference of heat around himself that extends to you right now, you know. but youâre confident youâd still feel your own version of itâon your cheeks, down your neckâeven if he werenât).Â
the hat sits perfectly atop his head, much like anything else thatâs on him. when you lean back, moving away to take a better look, you notice itâ
midnight blue, the backdrop on shoutoâs floor-to-ceiling windows, littered with speckles of whiteâthe first snowfall, and one you stand in awe of.
âgasping at the sight.Â
youâre still so near when your eyes light up, zeroing in on the view behind him. you canât help it, that smile on your face, bright and pretty, he thinks; itâs a short moment, but he feels it, a two-part âba-dumpâ that resounds in his heartbeat.Â
a/n: they thrift the chair bc it's real leather so buying a new one is just no-no + he texts natsuo otw home after the party that he feels a bit funny! (it's just his feelings đ)
comments, tags, and reblogs are greatly appreciated âĄ

Just as a note: This takes place in a medieval time period (think 17th century). I thought this would be fun to write since Iâve NEVER done a fantasy-based time period fic. I hope yâall enjoy it! -Jazz đđ
********
âShot for the road, anyone?!â you holler at your friends, both old and newâŠnew as in those who you just met an hour ago and have gotten drunk and danced all night with.Â
âI think youâve had enough to drink, girl,ïżœïżœ Nobara says, snatching your jug of addictive red berry wine from you. âYou canât even stand up!â You stick your tongue at her and try to prove her wrong by standing up from the barstool, but you nearly trip over your own two feet in your boots and have to grip the bar for balance.Â
Nobara cracks a smile, snickering to herself as she sips her third beer of the night. The girl can drink anyone under the damn table. âLightweights,â she chuckles.Â
You gape at her, offended. âHey, youâre the one who was pushinâ shots at me just an hour ago!â you scoff, referring to the shots of Bourbon infused with the taste of fall baked goods, including pumpkin pie, caramel, and apple strudel. You may have overdone it by slugging down some berry wine too, but damn, canât you live? This is a celebration! And a bar with drinks half off, no less.Â
You turn towards your other longtime besties that youâve been celebrating all night with. âYuji, Megumi, tell her to stop bullying me!â You shout, pouting your glossy lips at them.Â
Megumiâs emo, Iâm-too-good-for-this ass sits next to you, nursing the same Jack Danielâs heâs been sipping on since he got here. âIâve got nothing to do with this,â he grumbles. âIâm just waiting for this idiot to pass out so I can carry him home.âÂ
He juts a chin at the tall, muscular, pink-haired guy currently dancing around on the floor with the rest of the crowd, skirts spinning, boots stomping, and bodies twirling to the live band playing outside. âY/N, come dance!â Yuji shouts, waving you towards him. âMaki needs a dance partner!âÂ
One of the Zenin sisters is twirling for her life in the crowd that has made space for her, cheering her on. Maki, the oldest, sternest, and whom Nobara calls âMs. Four-eyesâ, is literally letting her hair down tonight. Her long, dark green locks spin around her as she dances, drunk and giggly.
âOh, shit!â you giggle, immediately moving to join her. Itâs not every day you see such an uptight person let loose for the night.Â
But Nobara stops you, grabbing the skirts to your pretty, ruffled dress. âNu-uh,â she says. âYou need to get your ass home and in your bed before you pass out too.â You turn to her, fixing your dress. Itâs the kind that falls off the shoulders and exposes just a bit of cleavage, giving you a very sexy but classy look.
You picked it out just for this occasion. âBut itâs only midnight!â you whine like a child. âAnd itâs Hallowâs Eve. I havenât even been out here long!âÂ
Thatâs a lie and Nobara knows it because she, Megumi, and Yuji have been with you since the Hallowâs Eve Festival began at 6 PM sharpâŠbut everyone in your village knows that festivals donât start until nightfall. That is when the drinks start flowing and the real entertainment begins.Â
Hallowâs Eve aka Halloween is a big holiday in your small village. Hallowâs Eve is considered the peak of autumn and a time of fun in your villageâŠbut it is also a time of caution. Traditionally, all of the villagers gather together in the town square to set up vendors, have costume contests with cash prizes, and drink alcohol at cheap prices. It is your way of building community and celebrating the holiday.Â
But behind all of that fun is something less bright and cheery. Home-cooked goods from bakery and tavern vendors are set up beside statues and burial sites as offerings. Candles are lit. Garlic is set outside windows and on door knockers. The festival is shut down after midnight and everyone is home before dawn.Â
Your village is very superstitious. Almost everyone here believes in ghosts, ghouls, evil spirits, or one of the three. Hallowâs Eve is considered a night where all spirits and creatures, good and bad, are at their most powerful and rise from the depths of Hell to wreak havoc on those who do not heed warnings.Â
But you donât believe in that bullshit. You never have. When you come home at night, never have you been snatched up by a ghost or spooked by a demon. You work at your favorite herb shop making good money, you date, you pay your bills, and you mind your grown-ass business. You donât indulge in any kind of superstitions that your fellow villagers do.
Besides, da fuck you look like cutting your Hallowâs Eve night short all because of some supernatural BS when you should be drinking, flirting, and forgetting about your ex?
âYouâve been out here since 6 PM, you drunk!â Nobara argues. âAnd I wonât be dragging your ass home like I did last time at the summer solstice fest!â Megumi doesnât wait to interject and check on his friend. âActually, that was me who dragged her home,â he sassily says. âYou just carried her purse.âÂ
Nobara scoffs, rolling her one eye since the other is behind an eyepatch. âOh, same thing! I still helped!â Megumi runs a hand through his spiked, black hair and tries to argue, but a jug of ale slamming onto the bar stops him.Â
Mai, the youngest Zenin sister and the flirtiest of the two of them takes a seat at the bar beside Megumi. âLeave the girl alone, Nobara,â she scoffs. âBesides, she still has to look for some fun to take home tonightâŠunless she already has.â She turns to you with a smile playing on her red lips. âGive me the deets, girl! You scoop up a hot guy with your fine ass yet?âÂ
âWhy, thank you,â you giggle, twirling your hair. âAnd no, definitely not in his tiny ass town. I swear, Iâve either fucked or dated half of the men here!â
Nobara rolls her eye while Mai laughs into her drink. âSheâs exaggerating. But I agree, hon; you wonât be finding your next prospect here in his shitty little village.â
Mai titters, winking at you girls. âThatâs why I travel.âÂ
You donât want to tell them that you wonât travel just for a quick fuck. You donât want to tell them that every single one of your prospects in your little village has been lackluster or below average leading to your sex life being nonexistent at this point.
Luckily, Maki comes stumbling over and tosses her arms around Mai and Megumi. âHeeey, you guys,â she hiccups. âWhat are we talkinâ about?âÂ
âWhy Y/N hasnât found a hot guy to replace her garbage ex yet,â Mai replies. âHoney, that man wasnât anything short of trash!â The buzz from the alcohol suddenly dissipates a bit, leaving you feeling tired. âTell me about it,â you grumble.Â
Megumi and Nobara instantly glare at the youngest Zenin sister. âRead the room, Mai,â Nobara whispers. Mai gasps, covering her mouth with a dainty hand. âOops! My bad, darling.âÂ
You crack a smile despite your stomach flipping at the mention of your ex-boyfriend who dumped your ass almost a year ago for a new prospect in the next town over. As a traveling writer looking for his new big break, your ex often told you stories of women who flirted with himâŠbut you didnât expect it to work one day.Â
After two years of dating, he came to you, admitted that he wasnât happy, and a week later, you found him on the front page of the newspaper with a famous singerâs daughter. You were devastated, to say the least. Even more so when you realized just how toxic, immature, and horrible of a lover your ex really was.Â
After that, you bounced from guy to guy, dating some, fucking some, ghosting some or some ghosting you. It was a hit or miss, really, but youâre tired of hitting or missing. If you didnât get something that would knock your socks off, you didnât want it. Life is too short for mediocre romance and sex.Â
âItâs cool,â you reply to Mai, passively waving your hand. âPlus, Iâve done the dating and hookup thing. Itâs all getting old for me. I want someone whoâs really gonna satisfy me, yâknow? Someone exciting. Someone who will make every boring man in this town look subpar.âÂ
Nobara snorts, tossing an arm around you and squeezing you close to her blouse. âI donât know about that one, but if you want romance, youâve always got Todo.â She nods at the hulking, fine-ass man with biceps the size of watermelons currently in the middle of an arm wrestling contest.Â
You scoff as the Zenin sisters laugh. Even Megumi cracks a smile. âWhat?! Girl, you know good and damn well that I am not his type! He likes skinny, white girls.â
You down the rest of your wine before slipping out of Nobaraâs hold and grabbing your cloak. âAaaand on that note, Iâm headinâ home. Thanks for tonight, yâall! Iâll see yâall in the afterlife.â
Yuji swoops in on you from the dance floor and wraps you up in a big, sweaty hug. âBe careful out there, Y/N!â he yells in your ear over the music. âYa never know whatâs out there.âÂ
Your friends bid you farewell before you leave the cramped tavern and travel through the throng of vendors, entertainers, and guests meandering among the closed-off streets coated in orange streamers, carved pumpkins, and colorful leaves from the trees. The air is crisp and fresh with autumn and the night is dark, only lit by some gas lamps lining the streets.Â
âHon, you donât have to follow me,â you say, not even turning around. âI literally live right up the road.â You can sense Nobara behind you despite her quiet footfall in her ankle boots. You opted for the sexy, heeled knee highs to pick somebody up, but that plan fell through.Â
âNo, itâs not that,â she argues, catching up with you to stand by your side. âI wanted us to chat! Real talk, Y/N, and be honest: do you really not wanna date anymore after your ex?âÂ
You keep your eyes trained on the trail as the festival gives way to quiet businesses closed for the night. âItâs not that,â you sigh. âBut heâs part of it. I donât wanna waste my time and get hurt like that again.â You cross your arms under your cloak where your leather clutch is, hugging yourself.Â
âThen what about just sticking to sex?â Nobara asks. âWhenâs the last time you hooked up with a guy?â You heavily sigh, depressed by the thought. You gave up on all of this a month ago and havenât been with any guy since. âA month ago and that was all I needed to see that hookup culture ainât for me anymore. He was awful, girl! He didnât even try to get me off and had the nerve to use my shower without asking when he was done bending me over.âÂ
Nobara giggles despite your sob story. âBut that doesnât mean I donât want good sex. I want great sex! I want someone to take me on a bed and do me in a way thatâll make me see God.âÂ
And God, do you. Though you manage to get yourself off fine, your fingers and erotic books can only do so much for a girl. Humans need sex, right? Itâs essential to survival and lately, you feel like youâve been failing miserably without itâŠespecially sex with a partner who is interested in pleasure YOU, not just themselves.Â
âWell, thatâs a testimony if I ainât heard one before,â Nobara laughs, her footfalls falling in line with yours on the cobblestone. You nod, looking up at the clear, starry sky above. âI guess Iâm justâŠ.waiting. Iâm tired of searching and getting disappointed.âÂ
Nobara stops suddenly and so do you, turning to her. She places a comforting hand on your shoulder and squeezes.âWell, just know that you deserve better than anyone I know.â You smile at your friend and press a kiss on her cheek. âIâll take that with me on the way home.â You turn, walking away with a click of your boots. âAnd donât follow me! Iâm a big girl!âÂ
Nobara listens and watches you trot away down the path to your home. But just as youâre about to turn the corner to go through the woods, she stops you. âY/N!â she calls. You turn, looking at her expectantly. Her lips press into a thin line. âJustâŠbe careful, okay?âÂ
You scoff, cocking your head at her. âOh, not you too! Is Yujiâs superstitious ass rubbing off on you?â You laugh, but Nobara doesnât. âLook, Iâm just sayinâ! Itâs Hallowâs Eve and you know people can get crazyâŠplus, you never know whatâs lurking out there.âÂ
She looks into the woods, her expression uncertain andâŠscared. Youâve never seen her look like that before. But then again, living in a village where people believe in the supernatural will condition you. You strut towards your friend and hug her close to your body. âKusaki, Iâm fine. Iâm just up the road and I promise Iâll go around the deep, dark, scary woods. Now go back and scoop Yuji up.âÂ
You release her and give her a wink before strutting off down the path, your boots clicking across the cobblestone. âHey,â she calls after you. âIf you happen to see a hot piece of ass on the way home, take him back with you.âÂ
You turn around and blow her a kiss. âWill do,â you laugh. âIâll make sure to send him to you when Iâm done!â She laughs and waves to you as you depart, heading home.Â
You feel bad for lying to your friend, but the last thing you need is a lecture or to be afraid of a trail youâve taken thousands of times. The trail cutting the woods is easier than going around it, so you find yourself doing just that, humming a tune as you do. You donât pay attention to how the forest looks like something out of a horror film, like how the leafless branches on the trees look like skeletal fingers stretching towards the sky or how the stars are now behind ominous clouds that hang above you likeâÂ
Crunch.Â
You skid to a stop, looking behind you. All that moves are the branches in the autumn breeze. Could that have been you? Maybe you stepped on a branch you didnât see. Though a bit frazzled, you continue on your way until you hear distant voices. As you get closer, the trees give way to a clearing where five kids decked out in Halloween costumes stand. âFuck,â you sigh. Just what you need tonight. And itâs just a coincidence that this is happening on your trail home.Â
You conceal yourself behind a nearby tree, peeking through the leaves. Four are standing in a circle while the other stands in the middle of some kind of drawing in the grass. You canât make out what it is, but you know that itâs suspicious. Any kid outside past midnight is up to no good.
âNo, no, Billy!â one of the kids dressed as a vampire yells. âYouâre supposed to pour the pigâs blood before you say the words!â Billy, the big kid in the middle wearing a devil costume, turns towards the vampire, holding a bucket. âShut up! I know what the fuck Iâm doinâ!âÂ
You come out from behind the tree and walk towards them as they bicker. âHey,â you say, putting some bass in your voice. âWhat are yâall doing?â Each boy looks toward you, shocked to see you there. Billy scoffs, smirking at you with a face full of freckles. âNone of your business, grandma.â The vampire and poorly-made werewolf snicker at their friend. Billy must be the leader.Â
âGrandma?â You scoff, putting a hand on your hip. âWhat are you, eight? Obviously, since youâre still wearinâ costumes at your big age.â Now all four of the boys, including a cowboy and a bedsheet ghost, laugh. Billy turns as red as his cape. âShut up!â He snaps. âI said get lost or youâll be sorry.â He glowers at you, tossing the bucket aside.Â
You arenât at all fazed. âBitch, I live over here. This is how I get home and Iâm not about to let some knuckleheads terrorize my neighborhood withâŠâ You motion a hand over them. âWhatever this is.âÂ
âItâs just a game,â the ghost says. âThatâs all weâre doing.â You raise a brow at him. âWhat kind of game? One that calls for pigâs blood and some type of speech?â The boys grow quiet, especially when Billy slips a pocket knife out of his cape. âI said. Get lost, lady. Now. Or Iâll gut you like aââÂ
âNo, you get lost,â you growl, trying to sound and look as menacing as possible. âAnd take your little friends with you. My mother is a witch and I know some âspeechesâ myself that can make your eyes bleed and your skin peel.âÂ
Billy scoffs and defiantly rolls his eyes, but when you begin to chant something in a nonsense language, he just about shits himself. âShit, man, run!â The cowboy yells as he and the others take off. Billy stares at you wide-eyed before finally running off, leaving the bucket.Â
Once theyâre gone, you stop chanting and laugh. âIdiots,â you chuckle. Now alone, you check out the scenery for yourself and walk towards the drawing. It is big, crude, and written in red liquid with multiple lines, each one connecting into a big star you stand in the middle of.Â
You scoff when you realize what it is: âSeriously? A pentagram?! Those little shits were tryna summon a demon!â You then giggle drunkenly. âMaybe I should conduct a ritual myself, see if I can summon some good dick. Thatâs a damn shame: me summoning a whole demonic being just to get laid.âÂ
Youâre aware that youâre talking to yourself out in the woods like a crazy person, but youâre so drunk that you canât stop. âItâs just so hard to find someone exceptional,â you groan. âDamn men. Damn my ex. Damn this small village. Damn this shitty dating pool! All Iâm asking for is a great romance if not great sex. How much longer can I date myself?âÂ
You turn to the overcast night sky and spread your arms wide, lamenting to the Gods above. âIâd give anything to have someone put me through the mattress! Iâd fuck a ghoul, a goblin, hell, even a fucking demon! Anyoneâjust please FUCK ME!âÂ
Your voice echoes across the clearing before fading away, replaced by a lone owl hooting. You truly are alone.Â
Crunch.Â
Or are you? You abruptly turn around and stare into the dark, lush forest, peering through the trees. âHello?â You call. Nothing responds. âListen, if you caught any of that, just know that Iâm drunk and I didnât really mean it, soâŠplease donât follow me. I really do know some spells.âÂ
Theyâre really only spells to make your herbs grow at work that your mother, an herbal witch, taught you, but âtheyâ donât know that. Still, you get nothing but the wind. âYouâre losinâ it, girl,â you whisper to yourself. âYouâve gotta lay off the wine.â Quickly, you tighten your cloak around yourself and hurry down the trail, your footsteps brisk and fast.Â
When you finally get home to your cozy little cottage, you lock the door and kick off your shoes, finally freeing your tired feet. Cinnabon, your pet cat, greets you with a meow and you return the favor with some scratches and treats for her. You donât even remember going upstairs to your bedroom. All you remember is darkness.Â
You never usually wake up in the middle of the night. Youâre usually out like a light. But this particular time on this particular night you doâŠand you donât like it. When you awaken, youâre still in your clothes from the festival with a splitting headache and in total darkness. Only the silvery moon shines through your bedroom window.Â
You donât know what makes you wake up or why you feel so on edge, but you do. The fine hairs on the back of your neck stand up and your heart wonât slow down. Itâs as if something is lurking within the darkness of your bedroom and youâre just waiting for it to reveal itself.Â
Then you hear it: running water. Like somethingâor someoneâis in here with you. âH-Hello?â You stammer, staring at your bedroom door. âCinnabon, is that you?âÂ
Then you hear something else: a very soft moan. You gasp and quickly turn around, finding a lump under your duvet. It shifts and finally moves, taking the warm cover off of it. Beneath it lies a very beautiful and very unfamiliar man. Shirtless. With nothing on him but briefs.Â
When he sits up out of his slumber, you realize how tall he isâhe is at least a head taller even though heâs sitting down. Heâs also big. Big pecs where two silver balls glitter on his nipples, big arms where one is inked in dark tattoos; big hands, big arms sinewy with veinsâŠprobably even bigger below. Your eyes trail down to his muscular thighs and washboard stomach before trailing up to his handsome face, snow-white hair, and ice-blue eyes that are framed by long, white lashes. He is gorgeous. Truly a beautiful manâŠa beautiful man who is also a stranger in your bed with two big horns jutting out of his head and a pointed tail that curls around your thighs. âCinna-who?â he groggily asks.Â
A scream bubbles up in your chest, but you canât release it. Itâs like your brain wonât let you. All you can do is freeze and stare in horror at the stranger, trying to piece together the past events. Did you meet him at the festival and forget? Did you take him home? Did youâÂ
The water shuts off and the sound of creaking footsteps makes its way to the bedroom door. Creeeeeak. The door opens, revealing a very big, horned, shadowy figure standing in the doorway. When he enters, you donât know whether to be afraid or aroused. He is just as attractive as the white-haired stranger in your bed with long, black hair tied into a bun and violet eyes that gaze into yours across the room.Â
He is big and misdialed tooâbig pecs the size of watermelons; big arms and biceps inked with tattoos and pierced nipples; thick, tree-trunk thighs that lead up to toned, mouth-watering abs dripping in water; big feet and hands that grip one of your bath towels around his slim waist. He, too, also has giant horns jutting out of his scalp and a pointed tail that sways between his legs.Â
âSorry,â he sighs, his lip ring glittering as he gives you an apologetic smile, âbut I think I used up all of that shea butter soap in your shower. Is that what makes you smell so good?âÂ
Finally, the scream inside of you escapes you. You jump off of the bed in horror and snatch the bat that you keep by your bed. Both men react in total confusion and alarm as you cower in the corner, holding the bat out for protection. âStay away,â you warn. âD-Donât come near me!âÂ
The long-haired stranger puts his hands up in defense. âAlright, alright, letâs just calm down, sweetness.â Neither one of them moves, probably afraid of scaring you even more. âDonât call me that!â You demand, pointing the bat at him while glaring at the sexy ass blue-eyed man kneeling on your bed. âAnd donât tell me to calm down! Who are you?! Howâd you two get in here?!âÂ
Both men look at each other questionably. âDonât you remember, baby?â The blue-eyed stranger asks, albeit flirtatiously. âYou called for us. You specifically said youâd let even a demon fuck you.â His soft-looking lips curl into a seductive, teasing smile that fills your stomach with warm, fuzzy tingles that you ignore.Â
Your brain, still slightly fogged from your slumber, tracks back to when you were in the forest. You damn near facepalm yourself. You did say thatâŠvery loudly. And someone clearly heard you because now theyâre both standing in your bedroom. âAnd here we are,â the blue-eyed hottie chuckles. âLucky for you, we like our humans desperate and needy. Ainât that right, Sugu?âÂ
The fine-ass long-haired specimen standing in your towel that is dangerously low on his narrow hips slowly nods his head. He doesnât speak, but his eyes, so molten hot and lustful, say everything. âOh, by the way, Iâm Satoru,â the white-haired hottie says, flashing you an award-winning smile. âLast name Gojo. Thatâs Geto Suguru, just in case you like to scream names during sex. Pet names work for us too though! I love being called âDaddyâ orââÂ
âWait, wait,â you interrupt, putting a hand out to stop him. Your brain is trying to process this newfound information as quickly as possible. âAre you telling me that yâall twoâŠare demons?âÂ
The two slowly, silently nod, sizing you up with their intense gazes. But they grow confused when you begin to laugh, practically doubling over from it. âThatâs funny,â you say in a fit of giggles. âCâmon, stop playinâ and just leave, okay? I know itâs Hallowâs Eve and all, but to break into a single girlâs home isnâtââÂ
Suddenly, you find yourself pinned against the wall and Suguruâs big, clawed hand wrapped around your neck. You donât even have time to gasp because of how fast he is. Did he teleport? The scent of your shea butter soap and something spicy wafts off of him, flooding your nostrils. âDoes this look funny to you, sweetness?â He whispers, his lips close to your ear.Â
You donât speak, your mouth frozen in a frightened O. Slowly, Suguru takes the bat from you and sets it down. You let him. Satoru comes over too, smirking. âThis isnât fake either.â He takes your hand and places it on his horn which is smooth like granite. âWeâre the real deal, little girl, so youâd better show us some respect since weâre here to please you.âÂ
Itâs like a record scratches as soon as he says it. You close your mouth and blink away your terrified tears. âP-Please me?â you ask, confused. âYouâre not here to kill me or e-eat me?âÂ
The two demons look at each other again and begin to laugh. Even their laughter is sexy. âNah, we donât get down like that, baby,â Suguru chuckles, gently releasing you. âSome bloodthirsty demons are, but not us.âÂ
âMmm-hmm,â Satoru hums, his eyes seductive. âWe would rather eat you up in another way that will satisfy both of us.â You canât deny the way your body reacts to his bold words. Your nipples grow embarrassingly tight under your dress. Your stomach flips with need. And your pussy? A damn flood.Â
âWeâre incubi,â Suguru explains. âSex demons. We feed off of humansâ sexual energy to survive and gain more power.â Your eyes widen, your stomach dropping. âSex demons?!â You yelp, pushing yourself further into the wall. You press a hand to your head as if that will help. âOh, God, I really fucked up. This has to be a dream or Iâm unconscious.âÂ
Satoru takes your hand off of your head and places his own bigger, calloused one on your face. Your cheeks blaze at the contact and the ocean blue of his eyes. âIf this is a dream then itâs the sweetest one, dontâcha think?â He teasingly coos. âHavinâ two men all to yourself? Iâd be so thankful if I were you.âÂ
His smile drops as his thumb begins to caress your bottom lip. âAre you not thankful to have us here, baby?â He asks, actually sounding saddened by the idea. Even Suguru looks disappointed, his bottom lip pulled between his teeth. The sight is damn near erotic.Â
You feel bad about letting the incubi down, but this CANNOT happen to you. âUm, listenâŠSatoru? Suguru?â Gently, you take Satoruâs hand off of your cheek. âI appreciate the offer, but I didnât really mean all of that. I was just drunk, plus I donât feel comfortable doing this being that yâall are demons and all.âÂ
Satoru raises an eyebrow at you and crosses his beefy arms over his best. âAre you discriminating against us?â he pointedly asks. Suguru rolls his eyes, nudging him in the side. âIgnore him. We can understand your hesitation, but weâre not gonna ask you for your soul if thatâs what concerns youâŠhowever, you automatically created a contract with us the moment you summoned us.âÂ
The mention of a âcontractâ scares you out of your wits. A contract does not belong in the context of a demon. âHow?â you whisper, but youâre not sure if you want to know the answer.Â
A humored smirk slides onto Suguruâs lips and you think he even pulls his towel down farther to show off the snake tattoo slithering up his left hip bone. Youâre embarrassed to think about how far it goes down. âYou said youâd fuck a demon, babe. Itâs as simple as that. Us incubi always go for desperate mortals who are unsatisfied with their sex lives and need to be laid down and filled up. You fit the fuckinâ bill.âÂ
His violet eyes roll over your form, making you feel exposed. âAnd disagreeing isnât an option unless you want us to haunt you for the rest of your days,â Satoru adds. âWhen you summon a demon, you have to successfully complete your end of the deal or else they stay latched to you.âÂ
And thatâs what you were afraid of. Curse you and your alcohol intake! âWhatâs my end?â you sigh, pinching your sinuses.Â
The two big, sexy demons towering over you smirk in your face. âYou fuck us till weâre satisfied,â Satoru smirkingly answers. âAnd we do the same for you. You cum as many times as we want you to because we know your body needs it while we feed off of your orgasms until we get our fill. Then, and only then, will we leave.âÂ
Suguruâs gaze grows soft, understanding of your reluctance. âNo funny business. No taking your soul. None of that. We just want you to feel good tonight.â His voice is soft yet sexy, promising you endless pleasure. âSo do we have a deal, little human?â The demons raise their brows expectantly, waiting for an answer.Â
Youâre still unsure about fucking a sex demonâŠlet alone two! Youâve never had a threesome before, but youâve fantasized about them. Plus, the idea of being sandwiched between two men much bigger than you who are devoted to your pleasure doesnât sound like a bad idea. Two soft lips. Four veiny, calloused hands. Two skillful tongues. Two big, fat, throbbing câÂ
âOkay,â you huff. âIf I agree to fuck you both, you wonât show up here ever again?â Satoru shrugs, nodding. âUnless you summon us again, but yeah, essentially. We donât show up where weâre not wanted, baby.â He gives you a lopsided smile, cocking his head to the side. Itâs ridiculous how sexy it is. âWe can give you exactly what you want and need. All you need to say is yes.âÂ
You donât want to be haunted forever, so what choice do you have? Plus, though youâd like to admit it, you need some dick ASAP. And youâve got two right here that are ready and willing to give you some. âFine,â you scoff defeatedly. âYouâve got a deal. but we need to go over some rules. I donât fuck demons, let alone have threesomes, so this is new to me.âÂ
Suguru looks pleased while Satoru cackles. âOooh, this will be fun!â Suguru shushes his partner before giving you a sweet smile. âWhat are your rules, sweetness?âÂ
They stay completely silent as you count off each rule on your fingers: âNumber one: we use a safeword. Number two: no biting or clawing unless I say so. Number three: I like spanking, hair-pulling, choking, and spitting, but you need to warn me first. And number four: Iâd like to be fucked without a condom, but NO cumming inside me. I refuse to have a demon baby like Rosemary.âÂ
Satoru looks bored but nods regardless. âUnderstood,â Suguru states, and you exhale, glad that this is starting off so easy for you. Maybe this wonât be as horrible as you thoughtâŠuntil Satoru gives you that wicked smirk. âNow get your ass on that bed,â he demands. His tone is so sultry and low that you canât resist.Â
The demons part to let you through and you slowly climb onto the bed, one vertebrae at a time. The incubi look down at you, the silver moonlight illuminating their lustful eyes, delicious muscles, and silver balls glinting from their hard, suckable nipples. Their pecs are so huge that theyâd make great pillows AND motorboat material. âThere now,â Satoru coos. âComfy?â Silently, you nod, adverting your gaze.Â
Satoru doesnât like that. He grips your chin, forcing you to look at his illegally handsome face. âGood girl. Now come here; letâs give that mouth something else to do besides talk back.â He presses his lips to yours and though you initially tense, your body melts into his finally as you fall victim to the kiss.Â
Satoruâs kiss is the best youâve ever experienced. His lips are soft and sweet as they move against yours, dancing with you. There is no fight for dominance because you instantly give him that the more his spell works on you. He begins to moan into your mouth like he canât handle how perfect this kiss is. You begin to moan as well as his tongue licks your bottom lip, asking for entrance. You allow it and his skillful tongue slides against yours.
As you French kiss, you realize how different Satoruâs tongue feels against yours. You know he has a tongue piercing due to the metallic taste, but you feel something else. Something pointed.Â
Satoru has a forked tongue.Â
âOh, God,â you think deliriously. You find out that Suguru has one too when he comes behind you and begins gently licking and kissing along your neck, giving you a feel of his soft lips combined with his lip ring. You can only imagine how these silver balls will feel on your pussy.Â
âWe've never had one be so bratty,â Suguru whispers against your neck. He attaches his lips to one sweet spot there, gently nibbling and sucking on it, intending to leave a mark. Satoru hums in agreement, pulling away from the hot, salacious kiss.
You whimper from the loss. âThatâll make breaking you so much hotter,â he chuckles. âNow wasnât that nice, baby? Câmon, you can say it. I know my kisses are good.âÂ
Youâre completely breathless and dazed. Your skin is hot and buzzing. Your nipples are stiff and your panties are just about soakedâŠall from a kiss! âShe hasnât had me yet,â Suguru gruffly replies behind you. He gently turns your face toward him and begins kissing you too. His lips are just as soft and taste like ripe, juicy berries. You moan and whimper into his mouth, his large hand cupping your cheek.Â
You feel the bed dip as Satoru sits down and begins kissing your neck, nuzzling your hair, teasingly moaning in your ear. âHey,â he coos, âwhose kiss is better, I wonder? Him or me?â Suguru growls against your lips, irked. He pulls away, a string of saliva hanging on your bottom lips. âShut up, Satoru. This isnât about inflating your ego. This is about making this pretty one feel good.âÂ
Pretty. Itâs been so long since youâve been called such a thing that you shudder. The two demons continue to leave trails of fire on your skin as they kiss up your neck, shoulders, and jaw, until they too grow impatient. âCan we take this off, sweetness?â Sugu asks, tugging at your dress.
Though he is respectful, you can see the wildfire in his eyes imploring you to say yes. âY-Yes,â you stutter, licking your parched lips. âJust be careful. I like this dress.âÂ
The demons chuckle, but respect your request and gently begin to undress you. No ripping or tearing despite their long, pointed claws. When youâre finally naked except for your panties, the two demons look ravenously at you in the moonlight. âJust as I thought,â Suguru sighs, a pink blush on his cheeks. âYouâre damn near perfection.âÂ
The two immediately sandwich you between their big bodies, hands groping your soft skin. Fingers stroke your sides, stomach, back, and legs, leaving tingles and goosebumps along your body. You moan and gasp, indulging in their bodies as well with your wandering hands. You can hardly remember enjoying foreplay this much! Your pussy is practically sobbing now, wanting so much to be stroked the way the rest of your body is.Â
At some point, the two begin using their big hands to massage and grope your juicy breasts, using their thick fingers to pinch your hard nipples. Feeling their forked tongues and cold metal piercings against your sensitive peaks is a pleasure beyond words. Itâs intense and explosive. You squeak in pleasure at the delicious sting, earning two tongue baths in response against your nipples. âThatâs it, little lady,â Suguru murmurs. âCry out for us. Weâve got you.âÂ
Coaxing you to do so, Satoru slowly slides a hand down between your thighs and presses his long fingers against your wet pussy. You gasp at the zing of pleasure that shoots from your core up to your head and throughout your fingers and toes. All he has to do is pull the thin fabric to the side to sink his fingers in andâÂ
Satoru takes a nibble of your ear, sucking on your earlobe, and one last squeeze of your breast. âBend over, baby,â he orders, his blue eyes ablaze with mirth. âGet that prey ass in the air.â Under his and Suguruâs spell, you assume the position: face down, ass up, much to their enjoyment.Â
Spank!Â
You yelp in surprise at the burning sensation of a hand slapping your asscheek. You turn to look at a sheepish Satoru. âSorry, baby, but I had to sneak a surprise one in.â You canât be too mad at him when your pussy is so wet from the assault. âItâs okay,â you whisper. âJust ask next time.âÂ
The demon smiles, gently running his hand down the cheek he smacked. âMay I spank that pretty ass of yours then?â He asks, his tone teasing and sultry sweet. Jerkingly, you nod and the demon hums in satisfaction before raising his hand up again.Â
Spank!Â
Surprising both yourself and the demons, a loud moan escapes you at the sweet burn. Satoru laughs, jiggling your asscheeks and enjoying the recoil. âOooh, thereâs a moan!â he cackles. âYou like that, naughty girl? You want another one?â You weakly stare up at him, your body aflame from the spanks.Â
Suguru, however, stops him. âStop hogging her, Satoru. I want a piece of that too.â His big hand trails down your ass to give it a squeeze. Soon, both demons are massaging your ass which translates well with your already-wet pussy. âLetâs have a little competition then: whoever makes this cutie louder wins,â Satoru says, a teasing glint in his eye.Â
Suguru gives him a smile that mirrors the exact same glint in those blue eyes. He then raises his hand above your butt and then brings it down hard against your asscheek, making it jiggle. Satoru follows suit, bringing his palm down a little harder each time to one-up his partner.
Spank! Spank! Spank!
The same sharp sound of their palms hitting your soft globes of flesh fills the bedroom along with each gasp, moan, and whimper that escapes you.Â
You canât believe youâre getting sobbing wet off of getting hit. Neither of them are even touching your pussy yetâŠuntil they do. Satoru decides to give your ass a break and experiment with your pussy instead. He gives it a light love tap over your soaked panties and both demons find enjoyment in the adorable yelp you let outâŠ.literally. If you could see them, youâd notice how hard theyâve become just from the sounds you make.Â
âOoooh, you like getting spanked here too, baby?â Satoru chuckles. âSo fuckinâ cute.â He does it again, humming pleasurably at the way your body jumps and your pussy twitches.
âMmm, thatâs enough, I think. Her pussy certainly thinks so.â The tension in the air has grown thick as the scent of your arousal wafts through the air, intoxicating the two horny demons.Â
Satoru does the honors of pulling your panties to the side, revealing your glistening, puffy, soft pussy to them. The demons practically groan at the sight. âYouâre so pretty down here, baby,â Suguru murmurs. You feel two of his thick fingers caress your sensitive lips, causing you to moan at the soft touch. Youâve never been this sensitive. This needy. This desperate.Â
âPlease,â you whimper. Satoru leans in to hear you better, his lips toying with your ear. âPlease what, baby? We canât give you what you want if you donât ask for it.â His forked tongue slithers out to caress your earlobe, sending chills down your spine while Suguru toys with your pussy, gently rubbing your clit around and around.Â
You know youâre going to regret these words, but youâre too desperate to care. You rise up on your arms and look back at them, desperation all over your pretty face. âPleaseâŠtaste me, Daddies.â Now you can see the two matching tents appearing underneath Satoruâs boxers and Suguruâs towel. The duo looks at each other before smirking deviously. âOhâŠyou want both?â Satoru chuckles. âFreaky. I like that. How do you feel about getting two forked tongues, hm?âÂ
You donât have time to agree or refuseâŠnot that you would refuse. You need something to give you relief and the idea of having two tongues in your pussy is tempting, to say the least. You let the two flip you over onto your back and spread your thighs apart, their greedy eyes glittering at you in the darkness of your bedroom only illuminated by the moonlight cutting through your window.Â
Unfortunately for Suguru, Satoru takes up most of your cunt at first. Heâs a greedy motherfucker, massaging your ass as he tongue fucks your pussy, filling you up and tasting you in a way unlike no man could ever do. You canât explain itâthe way the forked tips of his tongue tickle and stimulate each sweet spot inside of you; the way the sensitive bundles in your clit sing when his nose swipes against it; the way your body squirms and your thighs quiver under his hands as he spreads you open for him.Â
âOh, fuck!â you whine. âFuck!â Your voice echoes throughout the bedroom, mingling with the lewd, wet sounds of Satoruâs sloppy eating. His blue eyes pierce up at you through the V of your thighs, staring into your soul as he drinks your pleasure. âThatâs it, baby, scream for me. You sound so, so pretty.â He pauses to give your pussy a long lick, his forked tongue sliding against your puffy lips. âI bet no man has tongue fucked you like this, have they?âÂ
You weakly shake your head, your eyes rolling from the immense pleasure. Sweet Lords in Heaven and Hell, this man can eat pussy! You see stars and space behind your eyelids as Satoru slurps on your cunt, spitting on it before slurping it back up and resuming his eating.Â
Tired of watching him have his fun, Suguru shoves him out of the way and kneels between your thighs. âGreedy bitch,â he scoffs. âMove out the way. Itâs my turn to taste that pussy.â The demon gives you a wink before he dives between your legs.Â
You were wrong about no man having eaten your pussy like Satoru. Suguru takes the cake with that. His lips are pillowy-soft and feel like satin against your sensitive pussy lips. Even his lip ring, as cold as it is, feels good on your needy clit as his forked tongue slides between your lips to explore your little hole. âShit!â You moan, gripping the sheets for dear life. âFuck yes, Suguru! Youâre so good at this!âÂ
The long-haired demon smirks up at you, his chin and mouth glistening in your juices. âThank you, baby,â he coos, ignoring Satoruâs smoldering glare next to him. âHey, no fair!â He whines. âY/N didnât say my name while I was down there!â He forces Suguru to move over. âCâmon, Sugu, scoot over. We need to share.âÂ
Much to his dismay, Suguru shares your cunt and soon, you have two sets of skillful forked tongues and lips on your pussy, making you feel things youâve never felt before. Claws dig into your skin, fangs nipple at your lips, and moans send vibrations throughout your pussy that you shake, quake, and ache. âOh, my God, yes!â you wail. âLike that! Keep going!âÂ
Your hands grip the demonsâ hair and horns, causing their cocks to grow harder. The amount of wetness and sounds youâre giving them are fulfilling every ounce of power they need as well as increasing their arousal. âSo vocal,â Satoru chuckles. âI love my girls extra slutty like that.â He pauses to press a kiss to your mound, making you twitch. âSpeakinâ of slutty, does my baby need somethinâ else?âÂ
Yes. God, yes, do you. âAfter we make her cum,â Suguru growls, tongue still licking away. âI want that orgasm first.â Together, the two of them work to bring you over the edge, their tongues flicking wildly against you and inside of you. It doesnât take long for you to reach your peak. Your clit begins swelling and the knot in your core tightens until it threatens to snap.Â
Your back arches off of the bed as loud wails leave you. âOhmyGodIâmgonnacum!â you sob, speaking so fast that your words become one jumbled, messy sentence. Satoru lifts his gaze to stare at you, his blue eyes glowing. âWhatâs the magic word, baby?â He teases.Â
Suguru looks at you too, his violet eyes drawing you in further until your mind is mush. âPlease!â You nearly scream to the heavens. âPlease, Daddies, make me cum!âÂ
Thatâs all the demons needed to hear. They work their jaws faster, their tongues slashing across your clit and against the underside of it inside you while pressing down on your pelvis. When your orgasm hits you, it hits you like a ton of bricks. You donât make any noise as it washes over you, but when it finally settles into your body, you let out the loudest moan youâve ever heard yourself make.Â
Youâve never felt something so intense before. It spreads throughout your fingers and toes, and courses through your veins and bones. Like youâre coming for Mariah Careyâs career, you sing high notes that are so loud that youâre sure the Devil below can hear it. The demons slurp up everything you give themâŠwhich is a lot. Your pussy gushes around their tongues and on their soft lips, more and more leaking out because of your grinding hips.Â
It is the best orgasm youâve ever hadâŠso far. When it finally fades and youâre soaring through the clouds, your hips lower and your soul re-enters your body again. Satoru and Suguru finally finish cleaning you up, they look 100% rejuvenated and replenished, licking your essence off of their lips.Â
Satoru sighs, stretching his arms over his head. âI feel better already,â he sighs, âbut now Iâve got an even bigger problem.â Suguru concurs, staring down at the tent forming beneath his towel. Satoru fixes you with a lustful gaze, a playful smirk on his lips. âYou wanna see what a real cock looks like, cutie?â He asks.Â
Slowly, you nod, panting from the intense orgasm.Â
With lust and mirth in their eyes, the demons slowly strip themselves in front of you. Suguru unwraps his towel while Satoru pulls down his briefs, showing off their lickable V-lines and happy trails. Then, finally, two big, fat, throbbing, rock-hard cocks pop out from their hiding spots and present themselves to you. Each pink head drips with pre-cum, begging to be licked and sucked, and two big veins cascade from the bases to the tips.Â
Though they are equally big, they have their differences too: Satoru is slightly longer than Suguru and has a hook while Suguru is much girthier and has heavier, mouth-watering balls. Either way, both will probably fuck your absolute brains out.Â
You donât realize that youâre staring at them with your mouth open until they crack up at your reaction. âAwww, what a cute look!â Satoru laughs. âShe canât believe her eyes!â Suguru hooks two fingers underneath your chin, making you look up at him. âThink you can take both of us, sweetheart?â He asks, his tone sultry and soothing.Â
Something takes over you in that moment. A cock-hungry whore jumps into your bones and takes your place. She uses your body to get on her knees between the two demons, one cock in each of your hands. You watch as your hands begin to gently stroke their shafts from the tips down to the bases, up and down, up and down.Â
The soft, sexy sounds leaving the demonsâ lips encourage you to keep going, their hands lacing in your ear. âNice and easy, baby,â Satoru huskily whispers. âGet to know âem. Thereâs no rush.âÂ
You find yourself falling in love with their cocks, especially once you get them in your mouth. You start with Suguru first, peppering his dick in kisses before taking him into your mouth and gently sucking on him like you would a lollipop. A big, thick lollipop. âFuck,â he sighs, his head lolling back at the feeling. Your wet tongue. Your soft lips. The way your cheeks hollow and cushion him as he slides in and out of your tight little mouth.Â
After some time, you switch to Satoru and give him the same treatment. The demon watches you through hooded eyes, his bottom lip caught between his teeth, as you bop up and down on his cock. âGood girl,â he moans, caressing your scalp. âSuch a good girl for me.â You moan in response around his cock, stroking him in time with your sucking.Â
You begin to switch between the two every so often, stroking one while blowing the other, massaging one of the pair of heavy balls while you slurp on one of their thick, pink heads, licking up the pre-cum. Youâve never sucked two cocks at once before, but surprisingly, you get the hang of it quicklyâŠand you realize how much you enjoy it.Â
Satoru chuckles, wiping spit from your mouth that youâve accumulated from sucking so much. âIf I didnât know any better, Iâd say you want us to fuck that pretty face of yours. Is that what you want?â He grips your chin, tilting your face up to look at him. âTell us what you want,â he orders, his thumb playing with your bottom lip.Â
The words flow out of you so easily: âI want you to fuck my mouth,â you softly say. âBoth of you give me your cocksâŠplease.â The demons smile down at you, their cocks twitching in your hands. âWell, since you asked so nicelyâŠâ Satoru tilts his hips forward and slides his cock into your mouth.Â
You nearly gag as he slides into your throat, but keep telling yourself to breathe through your nose as your throat stretches and flexes around Satoruâs cock. Spit drips down your chin as he begins to bump and grind against your mouth, sliding himself in and out. He is very vocal about how good youâre making him feel, full-on yapping as he fucks your face.Â
âOooh, look how deep youâre takinâ me, babe. And you thought you couldnât do it.â He slides in deeper, his pretty face screwing in pleasure as the walls of your throat flex and clench around him. âThatâs it, gag on that shit. Such a good fuckinâ girl!â He fucks your mouth like itâs a toy, pulling you on and off of him as much as he wants.Â
Once heâs had enough, he passes you off to Suguru who is way more gentle and slow with his facefucking. He allows you to get used to his girth, your jaw stretching as he slides into your throat, filling your entire mouth up with his cock. âYouâre so good at this, sweetness,â he coos. âYou mustâve done this beforeâŠthough the way your body is movinâ makes me think itâs been a while.âÂ
You donât realize that youâre grinding your pussy against the bed until he points it out. Getting wet off of a blowjob? Thatâs NEVER happened to you before. With a moan, Suguru slips out of your mouth and Satoru yanks you toward him to slide back in. âNo oneâs been fucking this pretty body right?â He tuts as he fucks your mouth. âWhat a shame. Nobody couldâve done it better though.âÂ
Suguru fucks your hand while he watches his partner turn your mouth into a fleshlight. âHow long has it been since that trash ex of yours?â He asks. You blink up at him in surprise and he laughs. âYeah, we know. Soon as we were summoned, we were able to see everything about you and your little life.âÂ
âAnd boy, did you dodge a bullet with that asshole,â Satoru laughs. Slipping out, he taps his cock against your lips and then your tongue before jamming himself back inside. âNot even eating you out most nightsâŠnot that he could do as good of a job.â He gives you a cocky smile as he slides out, allowing Suguru to have you again.Â
The long-haired demon taps his cock along your wet tongue, keeping his eyes locked with yours. âYouâve been waitinâ for us to come along and slut you out, havenât you?â He whispers. âJust the way you need to.â You have. You absolutely have waited for this. âY-Yes,â you exhale and dive back onto his cock, sucking and slurping as much as you can.Â
Suguru is loving it, his clawed hand gripping your hair and his eyes screwed tight. The feeling of your tight, wet mouth combined with how pretty you look with his cock stuffed between your cheeks is too much. âFuck, keep going,â he groans. âDonât stop!â His hand clings to your hair desperately, luscious moans and gasps escaping him as you swallow his cock.Â
Satoru laughs, watching in interest and lust as you stroke him with your hand. âYouâve got some skills, little human. Sugu isnât ever this loud unless Iâve got my dick in him.â Suguru glares at him, sliding his cock out of your mouth. It bobs slightly, nearly hitting you in the nose. âShut up,â he growls. âSomeone else definitely needs a dick in âem too.âÂ
You do. Your pussy is clenching around air and gushing all over the bed. You need them like youâve never needed anything before. Satoru cups your face and lovingly strokes your cheek. âYou ready to take us now, baby? How do you want it, hm?â Theyâre leaving it up to you? Your mind is so foggy from your arousal that youâve forgotten your first name!Â
But you know one thing for sure: you want them. Right here, right now. âI donât care,â you find yourself answering. âJust fuck me.â The two handsome demons smile like two wolves who have successfully captured their prey. âYes, maâam,â they reply in unison.Â
They take their time getting you into position. To them, there is no rush, but to you and your pussy, they couldnât move any slower. They set you on all fours, your back arched and your ass presented to them. After deciding who goes first, Satoru gladly positions himself behind you while Suguru kneels in front of your mouth again. Both of their cocks begin sliding against both sets of your puffy, soft lips, emitting soft moans from both of you.Â
âThatâs it,â Satoru coos as you begin grinding back into him. âShow me how much you want this. Tell me with your body, baby.â He takes his hand and spits into it before applying it to his cock, making it shine in his saliva.Â
âCareful, Satoru,â Suguru warns. âHumans are fragile.â Satoru rolls his blue eyes as he slides his cock against your clit and sobbing pussy. âIâve done this before. Chill! Besides, sheâs wet enough to take me.â Finally, he lines himself up with your entrance and slowly, sloooowly, slides in.Â
You canât explain what you feel when Satoru slides inside of you for the first time. Your mouth falls agape and your eyes widen as he stretches your walls inch by inch, filling you up with all of him. âJust relax,â he whispers, stroking your backside. âLet me do all the work, baby.âÂ
Suddenly, your entire body begins to feelâŠdifferent. Your nipples tingle and tighten as if stimulated and your pussy grows so wet that your juices drip down your thighs. You know this has everything to do with whatever powers Satoru possesses as a demon. Whatever he does helps you take his cock deeper until he bottoms out inside of you, his balls tapping your clit.Â
Satoru and Suguru begin to fuck your holes with you squeezed between them, their big hands raised above your head to form a triangle. You serve as the bottom half of this Eiffel Tower, swallowing Suguruâs dick as you try to focus on pushing yourself back and fucking yourself on Satoruâs cock too. âHowâs it feel, mama?â He teasingly asks. âIs that dick big enough?âÂ
His clawed hands snake down your ass to squeeze and massage it, his rough palms swatting at your cheeks. You mumble around Suguruâs thick cock in your throat at the sting just as one clawed hand caresses your scalp. âDonât talk with your mouth full,â he pants. âYou look so goddamn pretty with my cock in your throat.âÂ
He pushes deeper, filling your throat with him. You nearly gag around his length, but manage to accommodate his size and breathe through your nose as he guides your head back and forth along his shaft. Satoru laughs, pistoning into you so roughly that you see stars. âYâknow, youâre right, Sugu: she does look cute gettinâ stuffed like thisâŠbut not stuffed enough.âÂ
You suddenly feel his spit-coated finger gently swirling around your asshole before gently probing it. âMmm!â you yelp around Suguruâs cock, but the demon shushes you. âItâs okay, babydoll,â he coos, still feeding you his cock. âGojoâs just gonna get that ass ready for him.âÂ
Helplessly, you take Satoruâs finger in your ass, the digit penetrating the tight muscle until he feels that youâre ready. As soon as he pulls out, something else goes in. You yelp as your asshole stretches around the foreign object, making you feel full beyond belief. âLike my tail, baby?â He chuckles. âYour ass looks so fuckinâ good right now.âÂ
He begins to fuck you harder, gripping your ass so hard that his claws dig into your skin. You wince at the sting, but strangely enough, it adds to the pleasure. Your body has a mind of its own, straying away from your brain as it begins pushing back into Satoruâs cock. âBounce on that cock, baby,â he coaxes. âYouâre such a good girl for us.âÂ
You are, you deliriously think. You are a good girl. Taking two big cocks at once is definitely something a good girl does.Â
When Suguru takes you, he is just as big and just as thick as Satoru. He grips your hips and pounds your pussy from behind, his moans and grunts so delicious in your ears. Speaking of delicious, Satoru canât enough of your delicious, sweet, dripping little cunt. Heâs so pussy-drunk off of it that he volunteers to get underneath you and eat you out while Suguru fucks you from behind. Heâs such a glutton, swallowing everything you give him.Â
He hums delightfully as he licks and slurps at your puffy lips and needy clit, even licking at Suguruâs sensitive balls and cock while he slides in and out of you. âYou taste so good here, baby!â He mufflingly comments from between your thighs. It comes out more like, âYwou twaste swo good hewe, babwuy.âÂ
His skillfully, forked tongue intensifies your already-stimulated nerves, making everything so wet, slippery, and sloppy. Suguru fucks you like youâve never been fucked before, going at just the right pace that makes your pussy sob and whines of pleasure come out of you. âHowâs it feel?â He asks, pressing his lips to your ear. âTell me how that dick fuckinâ feels.âÂ
His hand comes around to squeeze your throat, causing a choked sob to escape you. âSo-S-So good!â You cry out. âYou feel so fuckinâ good, Suguru!â Happy with this, he speeds up his tempo, emitting chants of âYes, yes, yesâ from you as Satoru licks wildly at your clit, digging his claws into the soft flesh of your asscheeks while his partner dicks you down.Â
But neither of them makes you cumâŠyet. That comes after each of them have had their fill of your pussy when you find yourself squished between them again. You straddle Satoruâs lap while Suguru kneels behind you, peppering your back in kisses. âLetâs fuck this bunny until sheâs dumb,â Satoru suggests, his tone low and saccharine sweet.Â
Suguru only nods and suddenly, you feel two thick, hard cocks sliding into your tight holes. Your eyes water and your mouth widens as you feel your body being stretched open. Your holes feel warm and tingly, the feeling only increasing the more the demons push inside of you. You know that theyâre using their powers on you to make this more pleasurable, but itâs intense. âToo much!â You cry. âItâs too much!âÂ
You drop your head onto Satoruâs chest, whining and panting at the sensations. âAw but youâre doinâ so well for us, baby,â he coos, bumping his hips up into yours. âDonât give up now. This is what you wanted, right?â As if coercing you into agreeing with him, he rocks his hips up and hits that spongy part inside of you that makes you nearly lose your voice moaning.Â
Suguru rocks his hips too, molding your hole into the shape of his cock. You feel too full, like a balloon filled with too much air. You begin to scramble and squirm in Satoruâs lap, but Suguru holds you firm against him, pressing himself against your back. âDonât fuckinâ run from this,â he growls. âYou want it and now youâve got it. Hold fuckinâ still.âÂ
His demanding, no-BS tone turns you on more than you can express. Like a puppet being controlled by strings or a slave by her master, your body relaxes and succumbs to the overwhelming, intense pleasure. The two demons begin to fuck you harder once they find their rhythm, digging their nails into the flesh of your ass. âSo fuckinâ tight!â Gojo grunts, fucking up intoyou like itâs his profession. âSo fuckinâ wet. Such a good little slut for us.âÂ
He latches his lips around a nipple, sucking roughly on the sensitive bud. Geto attaches his lips and tongue to your neck, licking and sucking on your skin until he leaves hickeys. Their hips pump faster, their cocks moving in and out, in and out, stretching your holes until youâre sure that they are molded into the shape of their shafts.Â
You grip Gojoâs shoulders as they bounce you against them, making you take everything they give you. Oh, my God!â You scream. âOh, my God!â Your voice rips out of you, satiating the demons. Gojo turns your face to meet his glittering blue eyes. âNo God here, baby; just us,â he chuckles.Â
Geto presses his lips to your cheek, nuzzling his nose into your sweet-smelling air. âKeep screaminâ for us. We wanna hear more of that pretty fuckinâ voice.â As if to persuade you, he switches up his tempo and moves out while Gojo moves in until the both of them are moving in tandem with each other, filling you up after one pulls out.Â
Wet sounds of their cocks in your sobbing pussy begin to fill the air, mingling with your moans, bedsprings, and the sound of skin slapping against skin. The sound of sex. It doesnât take long for your second orgasm of the night to peak like the moon high in the sky. âI-Iâm gonna cum!â You pathetically sob, absolutely losing all self-control. âPlease let me cum!âÂ
Gojoâs hand wraps around your neck, firmly squeezing your throat. His eyes glow, turning every strand of control and restraint you have into putty. âTell us itâs ours then,â he demands. âSay this fuckinâ body, this ass, this pussy, is ours.â Geto slows down a bit to give you a chance to answer, his eyes all on you.Â
You know what youâll be doing if you say it. You know youâd be giving yourself over to these two demons from the depths of Hell who could damn well be tricking youâŠbut youâre so desperate to cum that you donât even care. If you truly become theirs then you just hope and pray that the same hot, mind-blowing sex youâre getting now will be in the plans. âI-Itâs yours,â hou whimper, the words barely escaping you. âMy pussy is yours. My ass is yours. Iâm yours, Daddies! I wanna be yours!âÂ
You can practically feel the two demons teem with joy and power as the words leave your lips. Gojo breaks out into a big grin as his cock drives up into you harder and faster, making you bounce up and down on him, your tits jiggling in his face.Â
âNow you definitely canât get rid of us now, baby,â he chuckles. âYouâre ours now. And donât let this go to that pretty little head, but youâre the best Iâve ever had.âÂ
Suguru presses his lips to your ear, his big hands gripping your body as his cock drives into you. âCum for us,â he growls. âGive it to us, gorgeous. Cum.âÂ
His voice is like a button that triggers something inside of you. Immediately, your body clenches and so do your holes around the big cocks inside of you. Your orgasm crashes into you like a tidal wave, sweeping you up in an ocean of intense pleasure.Â
With a loud moan, you cum around Satoruâs cock, triggering his own orgasm. âGonna cum!â He warns, gripping you tight. âGonna fill you up. Gonna give you all of these fuckinâ babies, baby, I promise.âÂ
He holds your eyes with his, showing you desperation and the loss of control in them. Itâs so, so sexy. âYouâre gonna take all of that cum for ya Daddies, arenât you?â he coos. âYes, you are.âÂ
He answers for you and so does his cock. With a loud moan and a swear, he sinks his claws into your ass and fills your pussy to the brim with your cum. Suguru leans down to kiss him, sloppily swirling his tongue with Satoruâs as he, too, cums. You gasp and shudder as you feel Getoâs cum fill your ass and then wetly drip down your inner thighs.Â
The two donât stop there. They continue to fuck into you without abandon, pushing their cum deeper into your holes. âShit!â Satoru hisses, his face flushed pink. âC-CanâtâŠstopâŠcumming!âÂ
Suguru moans in response, nuzzling his face into your neck, his hair tickling your skin. He and Satoru rut into you like itâs the last time theyâll do so, hugging you between them. âTake it,â Satoru demands. âTake all of it.âÂ
You do. You have no choice. You weakly moan as your orgasm draws on, growing more and more intense as the seconds pass. You feel that you may faint if this goes on. You begin to feel dizzy and light, like youâre not grounded. Youâre somewhere in the sky floating among the clouds.Â
âY/N?â Suguruâs hand is suddenly on your face, gently tapping your cheek. âTalk to me, mama. You okay?â Weakly, you nod. You canât find the words to speak. Even as your orgasm fades, the tingles remain.Â
âLay her down,â Suguru demands. âI wanna mark that pretty face and those tits too.â You weakly moan as the two demons pull out of your wet, sensitive holes and lay you on your back.Â
You stare up at the two sexy, horned men and their still-hard cocks as they pump them furiously in your face. âHold still now, baby,â Satoru says, his tone saccharine sweet. âJust let your Daddies mark you up.âÂ
Muscles clench, faces screw, and cocks swell as their second orgasms build. You watch with lust-blown eyes as your demons toss their heads back, exposing their necks to you, as their orgasms wash over them. Delicious moans escape them as their cum escapes their cocks. You gasp as you feel warm liquid splash onto your tits, stomach, and face.Â
Your eyes shut just in time to avoid getting any in your eye, but you can taste the salty substance on your lips and tongue. It drops down your breasts and chest; out of your cunt and ass, coating your thighs. You are now completely theirs.Â
The two demons sigh in exhaustion and satisfaction, their cocks soft and their toned bodies slick with sweat. Satoru wipes seat from his forehead, a smile on his face. âThatâŠwas needed. I feel better already!âÂ
Suguruâs nods, agreeing, before his attention falls on you. âHow do you feel, baby?â he whispers, gently stroking your thigh. âYou okay?âÂ
All you can muster is a soft mewl in response. You sit there, winded, achy, and coated in cum. Satoru snorts, gently wiping a droplet of cum from your lips. âIâll take that as a yes,â he laughs. âNow, baby, how do your friends feel about demons? You should probably introduce us soon.âÂ
Suguru tsks and elbows his partner as he gently scoops you off of the bed. âShut up and help me run a bath, asshole.âÂ
The demon holds you to his chest and carries you to the bathroom. He gently kisses your forehead, soft and loving. âYou did so well for us tonight, sweetness,â he coos. âSo, so good. We hope we made you feel just as good as you made us feel.âÂ
You want to tell him yes, that youâve never felt so rejuvenated and alive, but the post-orgasm sleepiness wonât allow you. The shea butter and lavender-scented bubble bath Satoru runs for you only makes it worse.Â
The two demons donât talk as they sit in the bath with you, wiping their cum off of you and letting you soak. There are only soft sighs and light touches that relax you even further as you sink back into Satoruâs chest while Suguru washes you.Â
Two incubi in your bathroom. Who would ever believe this?Â
The rest of the night is slow, sweet, and involves a hot bubble bath, oil massages, and getting snuggled between two sex demons in your bed.Â
Suddenly, with your body aching deliciously and your bed warm from the two men slumbering in it, you start to think that maybe having two incubi haunt you for the rest of your days wonât be such a bad thing after allâŠÂ
Just as long as this night is like every other night after.Â
THE END.Â

Rating: Mature
CHAPTER NO/ONESHOT: OnehsotÂ
Word; 9k
Warnings; angst, injury, copious amount of fluff
Author;Â @the-goddess-of-mischief-writingâ
A/N: Surprise update everyone! I've been feeling so festive this year, there's so much snow and everything's just so cosy, so this chapter comes as a little hurt to feel-good thing on the third of advent. If you don't celebrate Christmas or don't like the festive period, I simply hope that you have a great December nonethelessđ„°
SUNSHINE UNIVERSE MASTERLIST
It had been a slow morning. Despite snow greeting you on the ground and in the air, you'd felt warm huddled in your jacket and the thought of cosying into one of the plush armchairs at your coffee shop. It had been serene; not many ventured outside in this weather. Yet, you'd smiled behind the lapel of your jacket when something other than cloudy skies and rain doused everything in a hue of grey.
You'd been in such a good mood that when you returned home with some pastries to go, saffron and caramel the main components in the golden danishes and tarts, you started a deep cleaning of your flat.
With the least Christmasy of Christmas songs playing from your speakers, you put up some festive lights, the warm glow softening every hard edge.
Although, while you're balancing on your stool, using some double-sided sticky tape to fasten a string of light behind your curtains, the music from your speakers is cut off by your phone ringing. You didn't think twice about heading to your phone, believing it was Marissa or one of your other friends. Yet, you stall when spotting the caller I.D. lighting up your screen.
Two weeks. John said his deployment would last two weeks. Of course, you would've been happy if he returned home earlier on any other occasion. But something made your stomach twist and your brows furrow when John now was calling less than a week and a half after he left.
"John?" You ask tentatively after answering the call and putting it on speaker.
"Sorry, lass, probably not the John ya wanted". Your heart fucking drops, your face falling in record time when it's a Scottish accent and not the easily recognisable British variant greeting you.
"J-Johnny?" Your voice breaks halfway through, unable not to. Even tears managed to well in the short seconds you realise what this call might be.
"Hey, easy, Price is alive and kickin'-"
"Oh god", you choke out the words, dropping to the couch behind you as you'd remained standing since you answered, for some reason. The tears that collected in the corner of your eyes trail down your cheeks upon your eyes shutting, more so from the sudden burst of relief than the fear that brought them.
"Fuck, you scared me, Johnny".
"Should've started with that", he excuses with a slight, strained chuckle before he clears his throat. "But... still callin' for a reason".
"Yeah, gathered that much", you return, wiping away your tears with your shirt sleeve.
"Captain got downed durin' the mission, nasty shot in the shoulder".
"What?" Your motion stills when you register what Johnny said, gaze falling to stare at the call-time ticking away tauntingly slow.
"Last time I saw him, he was in the infirmary and had just returned from a quick surgery".
"But is he alright?" You bring your phone closer to your face as if it somehow would make Johnny feel how you pressed for an answer.
"Huffin' and groanin' 'bout it but fine otherwise. He wanted me to call ya, knowin' the pain-meds he was forced to take wouldn't help him give good 'nough explanation of things".
"Okay, okay", you mumble. He's alive. Hurt but alive.
"He'll need to stay a while. But ya can come to see him if ya want".
"I can?"
"'Course, we'll be able to get ya a visitin' pass".
"Oh, thank you, Johnny", you breathe out.
"Nothin' to thank, lass. Can't stand the Captain's grousin' anymore". You chuckle half-heartedly at that. "I'll send you the details 'bout the visit and some information that's needed".
"Yes, yes, absolutely". You nodded along even if the Scot couldn't see the motion. "Send it over, and I'll fill out whatever's needed".
You don't know how much of a shit show things had turned into for them to return home early. Although, it must have been bad if not only John didn't go unharmed from it, but even Johnny seemed to have seen better days.Â
It was hard not to notice his roughened-up look when he met you by the army base's outer perimeter about two hours later. There were a few cuts and bruises littering his face, and even though the Scot didn't hesitate to bring you into a comforting hug as you jumped out of your car, you noted the slight wince he waved off as a 'bruised everything'.
Even if you'd been shaken after ending the call with Johnny, you attempted to calm down, telling yourself 'John's fine' before leaving your flat. Yet, those nerves flared right up when you entered the small visitors' centre beside the road. Thankfully, the very man who'd given you the news of John seemed to notice that the military surroundings were vastly unfamiliar and unnerving for someone not used to them, especially considering why you were here.
Johnny kept close the entire time, helping you with the needed papers for the visitor's pass by pointing to where your signature was required, even if he talked familiarly with the armed guards all the while.
You took deep breaths to steady yourself numerous times, feeling the Scot's attention fall on you each time he noted the same unease he previously only caught over the phone. You knew you weren't succeeding in hiding your nerves. Nevertheless, between being in a strongly off-limits zone for usual civilians and the fact you wouldn't be here if John wasn't in a hospital bed, you don't think Johnny or any of the other soldiers blamed you for it.
When everything was finally signed and read through, Johnny scribbled his signature on the dotted line beside yours on the last page.
With the I.D. around your neck, you exited the smaller building and jumped into your car again, only now the Scot hitched a ride back with you.
Your fingers rapped against the steering wheel once you were let through the gates and rolled forwards, teeth worrying your lower lip, eyes trained on the main compound further ahead.
"Lass", your eyes had swiftly adverted to Johnny, noticing his eyes shifting to your hands. You stopped with a tight lipped smile, your gaze having adverted forward again. "Price is roughened up but fine. He's been through much worse".
"I know", you sighed, having to hold yourself from going back to biting your lip. You'd seen John's scars, some on worryingly critical places on his abdomen. "But I haven't been there to see that...", you mumbled, eyes fixed on the parking lot ahead.
You and Soap didn't share much chatter as you parked, nor more than needed as he guided you through the building closest to the parking lot. However, he offered a reassuring squeeze of your shoulder when he saw you hesitate in the elevator upon reaching the medical wing.Â
A327. That was the room John apparently was in.Â
You looked at each door you passed, waiting for the right one.Â
324. 325. 326.Â
Your heart thudded hard in your chest as you finally reached 327.
With hands intertwining hands, fingers wringing each other, you merely stand rooted before the door. All of a sudden hesitant to step inside.
"He's gonna be fine, lass". Johnny's comment makes you look up at him. A gentler smile than usual meets you, causing you to release the breath you didn't know you held as you nod. "Let's get ya to meet him". The Scot gives you an encouraging smile as he opens the door, motioning for you to enter.
John's already facing your way when you step into the room that nearly shines white and beige. But your gaze only briefly meets his before it drops, flittering over his form.Â
He rests beneath multiple blankets that reach his stomach, his upper body clad in a soft white t-shirt that doesn't look like his own. Your jaw clenches when you spot his arm in a sling, stabilising it against his chest. As your eyes trail further upwards, a distressed sound bubbles up in your throat upon spotting the bandages peeking from beneath the left sleeve.
"John-", you don't manage to say anything more before you stutter to a stop, chest heaving on a sharp inhale.
"C'mere, love", his voice is hoarse, strained, barely more than a grating sound, but you move forward as on command.
You can't help how your mouth purses at how tired he looks, the hint of pain in his eyes so evident when you stop beside the bed.
"M'fine", John raises the arm of his healthy side, even so, he winces, eyes shutting tightly for a brief moment before they open again.
"Don't lie, I see that you're not", you murmur as you take hold of the hand that tried to reach your face, allowing his upper arm to drop and rest along the bed, instead meeting him halfway by bending down to kiss his knuckles.
John exhales deeply, eyelids fluttering close, the crease between his brows never smoothening. God, it hurts to see him like this.Â
You step closer, the side of the bed pressing into your thigh, planting a kiss at the very centre of the furrow. When you look down at John again, his features have softened, but his eyes still have a troubled look when that blue gaze meets yours.
"I'll leave ya two to it". You look over your shoulder, sending Johnny a look of gratitude.
"Thank you, Soap", John says. The Scot only nods in return, giving you a last look before he exits.
Once you're alone with John, you exhale almost painfully before gazing down at him.Â
"You don't know how scared I got when Johnny called", you admit. This time, John pulls your hand rather than face towards him, tipping his head forward to plant a firm kiss against your knuckles. "Thought-"
"Sit down, love". Upon catching your distress, John pats the side of his bed with a gentle voice. Although his attempt does little to ease your nerves, seeing how the slight move of his legs sideways to give you space only makes his features twist.
"Not a chance", you protest with a shake of your head, fearful of accidentally hurting him more. Instead, you glance around the room, finding a pair of chairs along the wall.
John doesn't hold you back as you release him and move towards them, but you guess it's more because he can't then don't want to.Â
You pull the chair along and put it as close to the hospital bed as possible, not hesitating to lean over the low metal railing at the side to hold John's hand again after sitting down, your other hand settling on his forearm, rubbing soothing motions.Â
You gaze up at the blue-eyed man, those pretty eyes of his duller than usual, exhaustion shining in its own faded might. His brown hair is one of the few darker accents in the room; the screen of the heartbeat monitor is the other source. Yet, it's matted, fallen to its own will against his forehead rather than styled into something casual by his fingers running through it and pushing it backwards.Â
Leaning forwards, your card your hand through John's hair, not nearly correcting it to how he usually does, but better nonetheless.Â
Your gaze flitters to meet his when you settle back in your seat, noting the smile adorning his lips.Â
"Happy to see you again, love". Not daring to test your voice, you kiss his knuckles in return. This time, you're positioned low enough that John's hand goes to cup your face when you lean away again, brushing his thumb over the apple of your cheek. "Even if it could've been under better circumstances".
You don't notice it until John's thumb paints a streak of wetness over your skin, but he redirects a stray tear rather than letting it follow its natural path.
"You're here. That's what matters". You squeeze John's wrist, leaning away to wipe your cheeks yourself, offering him a smile with a breathed chuckle.
"Was never not close to return". John wraps his hand over yours, letting them drop to the bed as he reflects your smile. "Shoddy shot whoever they were, used a handgun in close combat and still missed the brachial artery and brachial plexus", John releases one of those huff-chuckles of his. You shake your head, having no idea what difference it would make if whoever shot him hadn't missed those points, only that it probably would've been a lot worse.
"What- what went wrong?" Your gaze flickers to his injured side.
A heaved sigh escapes him before he speaks.
"Mission was bumpy from the start but went fine". You knew he let confidential details out, but you didnât want to know anything apart from what happened to him. "Needed to wait out exfil in an abandoned buildin'. Remained remarkably silent until we got the call to move to the pick-up point. Got ambushed, absolute shitshow". He shakes his head with a grunt.
"How's the others?" You'd seen two of the four men, though Ghost and Kyle's absence suddenly irked you upon hearing what John told you.
"Bruised but none too badly". John ran his thumb over your hand. A low, partly amused, partly exasperated huff escaped him as he continued. "My turn to take the brunt for the team, it seemed".
Even if you could've wished for a better outcome for John, at least none of the others had gotten off worse.Â
You suck your lower lip between your teeth as you really try to take in his state, trying, only try again to find your words. Seeing John like this almost feels wrong.Â
You'd witnessed his soft side, but this wasn't soft. This is hurt. He wasn't sluggish as when you managed to keep him in bed rather than rise with the birds on the occasional weekend. This was exhaustion, one he tried to hide, but the lines on his face exposed nonetheless.Â
Barely anything could've pulled your attention from John as you tried to find your words, any consolidation that wouldn't sound like pity. And yet, when a knock sounded from the door, soon after swinging open, both your and John's eyes are pulled to the entrance.
When you spit the woman striding into the room, your brows jump up.
"Kate? Didn't think you would be here". Upon noticing you sitting by John's side, the American woman stalled, the computer beneath her arm pulled in front of her.
"I was involved in the mission the boys went on". She juts her chin towards the man at your side. "Mind if I speak to him?" Her tone wasn't stern, nothing hinting at malice or desire to break you and John up. Still, it didn't really sound like she asked.
You looked from Kate to John, not really stunned compared to feeling how a bubble unexpectedly broke. "Oh, yes, of course, I'll wait outside".Â
Considering how neither stopped you as you stood, John only squeezing your hand before letting go, you took it as an affirmation this wasn't a conversation you had any clearance to be present for and that one way or another would've happened either way.
Even so, Kate offers you a kind smile as you pass her on the way out. Yet, you note the blonde woman's features looked tighter than on the night of the party, without a doubt due to the predicament making John end up in a hospital bed.
When the door falls shut behind you, you lean against the wall just to the left of the entrance. It's silent to a degree you would guess the room John's in is semi, if not entirely, sound-proofed. Considering it isn't an emergency wing, you wouldn't disregard the possibility.
You sigh, eyes falling close. What a fucking day.
You don't know how long you stand like that, but you're only dragged out from whatever trance you entered once you catch the elevator stopping on your floor and the steps coming closer soon after. Considering you'd anticipated a nurse or the like, your brows rise when the pristinely white surroundings suddenly stand in stark contrast to the person dressed in dark army clothing.
"Heard from Soap you would be around". You smile as you push off the wall, meeting Kyle as he closes the distance between you. "How are you holding up?" The question brushes past your shoulder as he brings you in for a hug before keeping you within arm's distance, studying what must be your tired features.
"As good as can be". You smile in return. The young Brit rubs your upper arms reassuringly as he nods, seeming content with your answer as his arms drop to his sides. "You here to visit John?"
"I was, got some gaps in my schedule", Kyle confirms before cocking his head. "But I guess I'll have to wait, considering you're not there with him".
âKate is paying him a visitâ. He looks at the door with a furrowed brow before his attention tracks back to you and it smoothens. âIf you wanna greet him, maybe you have enough authority toâ. Kyle only shakes his head.Â
âIf Laswell wanted to talk to him first, thereâs a reason. The rest of us will know in due time. Hopefully, he ain't such a grouse by thenâ. He shrugs, and you can't stop your laugh. This time, it's not half-hearted nor forced.
"All of you laying it on thick about how grumpy he is".
"He isn't such a charmer when things don't go his way and he isn't surrounded by pretty faces". You swat Kyle on the arm as he sends you a look. "Only telling you the truth, not all of us get special treatment".
"Yeah, yeah, alright", he nudges your shoulder with his knuckles before stepping backwards.
"Send the Cap'n my regards, have to be on my way".
"Will do. Have a good day, Kyle". He gives you a nod of goodbye in return as he turns on his heel, heading back to the elevator he came from a few minutes ago. You offer him a last wave before the door closes.
Alone again, you look at the clock on the wall. But, considering you have no recollection of when you exited the room, you can't tell how much time has passed since Kate arrived, only guessing it must be at least a dozen.Â
You scan the corridor, finding sporadic rows of chairs along the wall, similar to the ones in John's room. Not knowing how long John and Kate's unofficial meeting would continue, you move to one of the seats across from where you'd stood, fishing up your phone to make time pass faster as you sit down.
Taking note this time, you know another ten minutes have passed before the door opposite you opens and pulls your eyes from your screen.
You slip your phone into your pocket as you push up from the seat and head towards Kate, Even though sheâs keeping the door open with one hand on the handle, you barely catch the end of John's sentence before it ends.
Just as you reach her side, Kate's attention trails from John to you, giving you space to enter by stepping out of the room. Flashing her a brief smile, you move forward but suddenly gets halted when her hand slips around your upper arm.
"It's good to see the Captain's got someone with him", her voice is lowered, only for you to catch.
Your lips tug upwards in a genuine smile. Without really knowing how to answer that, you offer Kate a nod and a small 'thank you' in return.
The smile she reciprocates with is much less strained this time around. "Take care of him now".
"I will". And with that, she nods goodbye, heading down the hallway while you re-enter the room.Â
"Spoke with Kyle". You begin while closing the door behind you. "He says hello". You forward his message to avoid forgetting.Â
When your eyes fall upon John, whom you barely catch an answer from, at least not more than a hum, you notice how he's sunken deeper into the bed.
"You tired?" You retake your place in the armchair as he hums again. As John scoots closer to your side and stretches his hand towards you, you settle your elbow on the bed and intertwine your hands again.
"Laswell was worried, wanted to check in and inform me some things that needed finishin' could wait". The pauses between his words were prolonged, and the pronunciation drawled as he briefed you on his conversation with Kate. "Should finish them, though", he grunted, trying to sit up straight against the pillows, but you settled a hand on his stomach.
"You need to rest, John. If Kate said things could wait, trust her". He stilled, looking back at you with slow, almost drowsy blinks.
"Fine", he agreed, settling into the bed again.
 As he sighed, eyes fluttering close, you felt something bleed from your body, making your upper body relax forwards, head settling on the verge between Johnâs hip and his lower stomach. Feeling the weight, his eyes flutter open, head tilting forward as he gazes at you.Â
"Mm, talk to me, love, what you've been up to".
"Not much, really. I worked and met up with some friends. Oh, Marissa and I went on a little investment spree for Christmas".
"Investment?" John humours in a low voice, the twitch in his mouth unable to pull his lips into a complete smile compared to only tilting the edges upwards.
"If they're going to be reused yearly, that's an investment". He chuckles deeply, and you release a chuckle of your own.
You continue talking about what you've done in the week and a half you've been apart. Some Christmas baking, putting up decorations as of today, noting how most things out of the ordinary related to the holiday season.Â
Gradually, you notice how John's eyes fall close. Even so, he's still invested in the conversation with few-worded responses. But even those soon become nods and hums when his hand relaxes in yours. As you move to gently trail your fingers up and down his forearm, all while continuing to talk, the soothing motions make him heave a sigh.Â
Soon enough, the only sounds he lets out are the breaths escaping his parted lips, his softened breathing followed by the rhythmic movement of his chest.Â
You trail off in your sentence with a small smile, watching John's sleeping features. No furrow pulls his brows together, no involuntary twinge in his features letting on his pain. He looks at ease, and it finally settles your nerves as well.Â
In stark contrast to how you notice John's consciousness slipping, you don't detect yours slowly doing the same.Â
Your movements up and down his skin slowly grow shorter, from trailing between his wrist to the crook in his arm to only rubbing the spot your hand eventually stills on. The tension in your neck releases from the claws of whatever emotions had built throughout the tumultuous day, your head feeling heavier as it rests against his stomach. There's a fine line between when your blinking turns from slow to prolonged, even slimmer to when you can pinpoint your last conscious thought.
You're not the first to wake up. John's the one who stirs when a knock sounds from the door.
If not for the pain in his shoulder, despite being suppressed, he wouldn't blink his eyes so blearily and feel his mind sluggishly awake compared to what's expected of someone like him. Even so, his senses are sharper than yours as he notes your form slumped over the bed and your head resting on him, serene features remaining much like your steady breaths bleeding through the blankets.
His eyes trails to the door, releasing a low sound that must have sounded like a grunt to whoever was on the other side, but he couldn't care. The door swings open, Soap stepping through it much like he'd done a few hours earlier, but then with you by his side.Â
Now, the Sctosman closes the door behind him gently upon noting your sleeping form before his attention settles on John.
As Soap steps further into the room, John's eyes flit down to your sleeping form before rising again. With a swift look at the clock, he knows what the Sergeant is probably here for. He softly settles his hand upon your head.
You donât remember falling asleep, only that John did, so when youâre roused from a dreamless nap by a hand cradling your scalp, you feel groggy when sitting up straight all too suddenly.Â
You blink repeatedly as your vision focuses again, finding John looking at you, his hand sliding down to the back of your head and down your arm.
"Sleep well?"
"Mhm". You roll your head, twitching at the twinge in your neck from your not-so-ergonomic sleeping position.
"Not the comfiest spot for ya". The Scottish accent catches you off-guard, as last you checked, only you and John were in the room.
You turn around, spotting the very Scot who'd spoken. "Oh, hi, Johnny".
"Hey, lass", he chuckles in return. "Just came âbout to inform ya thereâs a room waitin' if ya want to stay the night".Â
Your brows lift, eyes shifting to John, who's already watching you. "You donât need to. Iâll be holed up here either way".
"It will just be less travel tomorrow", you shrug, turning back to Soap as you confirm you'll stay.
"Come on then, lass, visitin' hours are over soon". He opened the door slightly as he spoke, showing you he would guide you to your room for the night. You nodded, shifting out of your seat to stand, not without looking down at John.
"Go, get some proper sleep", he nudges your hip. You give him a brief smile before bending down, pressing your lips against his. They're chapped, but their plush warmth is soft. As you part from him, you mumble a 'goodnight'Â against him, an equally low 'goodnight, love'Â murmured against your lips, warming you further before you pull away.
You place the chair back where it's meant before fetching your things from beside the bed and offer John a last parting smile and a 'see you tomorrow'.
Just before you pass through the door, you look back at John, offering him a small wave, one he answers with a warm smile.
"You really turn the Captain into a love-sick man", Johnny's comment comes seconds after the door closes. You turn to him, seeing the amused look he sends you.
"Oh, shut up". You swat Johnny's arm, making him bark out a chuckle.
"Ain't nothin' bad, lass", he mused, nudging you back with his elbow.
The Scotsman lead you to another part of the compound, a freestanding building just across the one you exited, at the other side of the parking lot.Â
It had begun snowing. Fat constellations of powdery white fall through the air as you trudge through what's already covering the ground. You flick up the lapel of your coat, burrowing your nose in the fabric as you protect your eyes from the snowflakes desiring to stick to your lashes.Â
When you entere the building you'd been heading toward, the warmth inside was a welcoming change, and you shrug away the snow that had yet to melt into the dark fabric enveloping you.Â
This time around, there was no need to sign papers as upon your arrival, Johnny simply led you straight to the room appointed for you, handing you the key when stopping outside the door. As you entered, you were surprised, not knowing what you'd anticipated, but certainly not a space similar to a hotel room.
A low whistle pulls your eyes to Johnny. "Aye, not bad", his eyes rove over the room before settling on you.
"Much better than I thought", you agree, stepping inside, shrugging the bag off your shoulder, and simply putting it on the floor.
"Didn't think we would put ya in the barracks, did ya?"
"Never experienced military hospitality before, but didn't expect much", you shrug, smiling in return as you turn to face him.
He shakes his head. "That's the thanks", he quips, yet his grin deceives him. "I'll see ya in the mornin', lass".
"Johnny!" He halts in the step he'd begun to take, watching you with raised brows. "Just, thank you for... everything today". His fingers rap against the door handle as he shifts the weight on his feet.
"Knew it probably would be tough for ya and that Price probably hadnât even thought âbout having ya visit here yet. Sâjus' wanted to make it as smooth as possible for the both of ya. Know he would've done the same for the rest of us", he shrugs with a gentle smile. Johnny's consideration warming your heart.
"Thank you, really".
The side of his mouth bows upwards. "Ya are welcome". And with that, he closes the door.
***
When you wake up in an unfamiliar room, remembering where you are takes a few seconds. Then it comes rushing back as you see the visiting pass on the bedside table. Johnnyâs phone call. Johnâs injury. The military base.Â
You sit up with a jawn, peeking out the room's sole window.
Itâs utterly white outside, with no cloud in the sky as the sun just about peeks over the horizon, suggesting today will be considerably colder than yesterday.
Slipping from bed, youâre quick to dress yourself. The t-shirt you slept in gets stuffed into your handbag as you only shrug on the hoodie from yesterday, slipping into your pants not soon after.
You move to the bathroom, lamenting the lack of anything to freshen up. Even so, you splash your face with water, trying to tame your hair before sighing heavily, simply fetching the hair-tie youâd remembered to take off your wrist before bed.Â
Moving around the room, you remember the package of gum youâd thrown into your bag a few days ago, hoping you hadnât chewed through the whole package when it would ease your mind about morning breath.
You rummage through your bag, cursing what yesterday didn't feel like a lot of stuff, but now does as you search for what you need.Â
A swift two-rap knock echoes from the door just as a triumphant sound escapes you when you spot the silvery package. Popping a gum into your mouth, you move towards the entrance, not surprised to find Johnny on the other side as you swing it open.
âGood morningâ.Â
Johnny cocks his head as you smile at him before he splits into his own grin. âYa seem cheery this morninâ.â
âSeeing that Johnâs doing good helped me sleep betterâ, you shrug, catching a hum from him as you turn around to collect your stuff around the room. âAnd then the bed was surprisingly goodâ.
âThese ones are heaven in comparison to those in the barracksâ.
âYeah?â You turn towards the Scot standing with his hands behind his back, waiting at the doorstep.
âAye, happy to not be rookie anymoreâ.
âUnderstandableâ, you chuckle as you and Johnny step out into the hallway before tracking the same path youâd done yesterday. You couldâve done it yourself but had an inkling that you couldnât move freely on the base.
âSo youâre my guide while Iâm here?â Blue eyes flicker down to you as he lets you pass out the door to the courtyard first.
Itâs indeed colder today than yesterday, the chill biting your cheeks.
âAye. Concerninâ Price was bed-bound; I needed to sign those papers in his steadâ.
âAnd you donât have better things to do?âÂ
âL.T. gave me five minutes to spareâ.
âFrom what?â The snow crunches beneath your shoes.
âWhatever drill he set up to run us into the groundâ. You let out a surprised laugh at that, making the Scot grin. âYaself then, lass, goinâ to keep an eye out on the Captain for us when he leaves?â
Your eyes widen, switching to look at Johnny once evading an ice-spot as you cross the parking lot. âHeâs cleared to go home?âÂ
âHaven't got any confirmation on it. But he's got no vital injury and has stayed close to two days, so itâs probable heâll get to go homeâ, he shrugs.
The warmth rushes against your face as you enter the main building, much like yesterday, taking a right towards the medical wing.
ïżœïżœFeel like Iâll need to. Otherwise, heâll stress the injuryâ.
âWouldnât be the first time any of us did thatâ. Johnny rubbed his neck as you raised your brows at him. He positioned himself opposite you as you stepped into the elevator, giving you a sheepish shrug. âComes with the job sometimes despite medical leavesâ, the Scot excused the habit, only making you roll your eyes with a disbelieving huff.
âThen Iâll definitely have to ensure he takes it easyâ. The doors close, and the elevator smoothly rises.
âPrice wonât be able to say no to ya, never has since he met yaâ. When your head dips into a shake this time, a smile adorns your lips that you try to hide. Even so, the Scot slung his arm around your shoulders with a laugh as you exited the elevator upon its chime and the doors opening.
The walk to Johnâs room seems much shorter than yesterday, without a doubt, because you know of his stable state. So when Johnny drops his arms from your shoulders, itâs not with bathed breath you open the door.Â
Unlike yesterday, your eyes donât lock with Johnâs the second you enter the room designated to him. His gaze remains cast downwards on the tablet in his lap, even if his head tilts your way to show he noted someone had entered. Not until the Scot behind you offers a âMorninâ Captainâ does the man in the bed look up.
âWhat was that about makinâ him take it easy?â Johnny chuckles lowly, making you send him a look before he departs with a mock salute. You only shake your head at the man before entering the room.
âArenât you meant to take it easy?â You watch John with a raised brow, catching how the door slides close behind you while you slip out of your coat.Â
âI amâ.
âLet me rephraseâ, you chide him with a smile. âShouldnât you relax, no work?â You move to the side of his bed with one of the chairs dragged along behind you.
âI-
âDonât say that you are John. I know that look on your faceâ, you remark with a finger towards the easing purse of his lips and the furrow between his brows thatâs not brought on entirely by pain like yesterday.
He sighs heavily, a locking sound coming from the tablet as he drops it screen-down in his lap. âYouâre rightâ.
 âI know I amâ. John releases a huff of laughter through his nose at your comment, softening your smile. âDid you sleep well?â
He hums. âWoke a few times âcause of this-â. He jerked his head to his shoulder. âBed probably goinâ to set off my backâ, he scoffed in annoyance at having to deal with the twinge in the lower part of his spine that youâd learnt most often came and went more frequently after he returned from a deployment or a bad mattress.Â
You hum, leaning forward to card your fingers through his hair that had fallen across his forehead after his previous jerky movement. While you do, you catch John returning the question, but your answer is an undeveloped âgoodâ, all your attention upon the locks your fingers card through.
His hair feels matted, and when your eyes briefly flicker over his face, you note his beard is untamed, not grizzly, but itâs lost the shine it usually always has.
âWhen was the last time you showered?â
âThat's your way of tellinâ me I smell?â Your nose scrunches, hand falling to rest on the metal railing as your gaze locks with Johnâs amused one.
âNo, at least that wasnât what I was getting atâ.Â
A chuckle precedes the more serious answer you get. âAbout a week ago at the last safe-house, havenât been able to have one after returninâ. Canât wet the bandagesâ. You purse your lips, gaze momentarily switching to his shoulder before trailing back.
âHow long before you can take them off?â
âThe Doc visited before you came around and said Iâm clear to leave, but the bandages needed to stay on until tomorrowâ.
You nod. âJohnny betted you would be able to go home todayâ.
âWe know how these thing goes. Instructions about wound care, then sent off on med-leave before even attempting to come back and get shot at againâ.
âJesus, Johnâ, you let out a chuckle of disbelief, shaking your head. When you raise it again, thereâs a slight tug in the corner of his mouth and a knowing, truthful, look in his eyes. "Better we get you home and start the arduous wait, then." You offered him a smile and a raise of your brows, silently wondering if he was ready to pack up.
"Can't wait".
It wasn't a hassle to get John out of bed. He groaned and gruffed to himself as he pushed himself upright with your hand steadying him on his back, but that was about it. As he rose from the bed, you helped him into his boots and gently slung the jacket draped over his duffel-bag on the other side of his bed.Â
You'd sent him a look when he'd noted you of the bag's presence, remembering it wasn't there yesterday, to which he only explained Kyle got around and dropped off his things just after the Doctor had visited.
Although standard issued and didn't seem too heavy once you made the proposition to carry it instead of him, you cursed in disbelief when slinging it over your shoulder, not anticipating its weight. It had given John a good laugh before offering to take it regardless. However, you remained stubborn, motioning for him to take the lead out of the room with a 'you don't know how heavy our purses can be sometimes'.
But you don't enjoy a second of it as you trudge through the building; you more than John slowing the tempo. He catches you grumbling under your breath numerous times about what he's got in there, falling back to walk beside you once you reach the parking lot, mentioning he doesnât desire looking back and find you toppled over in a heap of snow. He'd gotten another glare upon that comment.
You'd thought the drive home to John's would've been less arduous, but you'd found yourself unable to relax just as much, but for entirely different reasons.
With each turn of the car, you noticed how John braced his feet against the floor so as not to move in his seat, his free hand slipping beneath the seat belt to keep it from digging into his injury at times.
The way he acted made you all the more cautious in your driving, even picking routes that had more straight for his sake. You knew John noticed when you didn't take the usual right about halfway through the drive by the glance in your direction.
By the time you pulled into his driveway, the sky had darkened, and snow had started falling, making your and John's retreat into the house from the car hasty. Nonetheless, he managed to escape the weather that was worsening by the second much quicker compared to you as you fetched his bag from the booth.
You don't take more than a few steps into the foyer before you slip John's bag to the floor. When the pressure of the straps disappears, you sigh in relief.
John's chuckle makes you send him a glare. However, it melts away when your gaze finds the absolute disarray of his hair, now a combination of dirty and wet from the snow.
"Come one, I'll help you freshen up". You say, closing the door behind you, shielding you from the chilling cold.
"No need, love". You send him a look over your shoulder as you take off your coat, finding John stepping out of his barely laced boots.
"Why? You always have a shower when you get home?"
"If you have forgotten, can't get this wet for a day more". John nods to his shoulder as he faces you. "Can just wait 'till tomorrow".
Your brows furrow, and your hand falls to your hip while hanging up your coat. "John, I know how religious you are about your routine once you come home. There is no need to skip it just because you can't do it yourself when I simply can help".
You see his resolve falter somewhat as he regards you. "You don't mind?"
"Not at all", you shake your head. "Wouldn't mind a hot shower to warm up in this cold house of yours". A smile tugs in the corner of your lip when you end the sentence with an exaggerated wink.
It makes John chuckle as he shakes his head before those blue eyes rise to follow you when you approach. "Don't think I could supply that need now".
"Out of us two, I'm the one who can go a bit without being dicked-down". You kiss John's cheek as you slide the jacket from his shoulder, catching the harsh sigh as you wander to hang up his piece of clothing beside yours.
"That a challenge?" He hums as his un-injured arm sneaks around your waist as you finish your task, gently turning you around to pull you towards him. "Besides, I got other ways to satisfy you".Â
"Oh, I know". You give John a softer look as your hand slides down his forearm before gripping his hand, moving it to hang beside your bodies. "But let's listen to the doctor for now and let you heal up first". You offer him a smile as you back away and head into the house, John letting himself be led by you as you steer towards the stairs.
Not until you've reached his bedroom do you let go of his hand, ushering him to the bathroom as you move to his dresser. You swiftly dig through it for a new pair of pants, opting not to bring a shirt, believing neither of you could bother the hassle of attempting to put it on.
"Strip", you wave your finger towards John as you step over the threshold to join him in the en suite.
"Thought Doc's orders applied". You catch the smugness in his voice, sending him a humoured look, one he answers with a wink as he moves to sit down on the lid of the toilet. While John rid himself of the pants he'd gotten from the hospital, you place his own pair on the sink.Â
While he kicks them aside, your attention falls on the white shirt still covering his upper body. A furrow enters your brows, lips pursing. It would be challenge to take it off even if you helped him, being an uncomfortable and possibly painful process no doubt.
"Just cut it off". Your eyes meet John's, checking if you heard him right. With his head falling sideways in a nod, you move to the sink drawer to fetch the scissors, silently agreeing it might just be the easiest thing to do.
Mindful of the sling and bandages, you rid John of the thin cotton shirt, leaving him in only his boxers briefs.Â
While you turn around to throw the strips of his shirt into the bin, John stands, moving around you toward the shower. By cocking your hip, you swiftly close the drawer after putting back the scissors.
As you turn to say something to John, you catch him stabilising himself on the edge of the sink, knees just about to bend. Realising what he is about to do, all your previous thoughts are promptly cut short.
âYouâre not kneeling on the floor." John stalls in his movement, looking at you. If he says anything in return, you don't catch it as you're already on your way out of his room.
The spare bathroom, which was under renovation the first time you visited, has now been finished. But you remember the stool John had used was yet to be taken to the spare room downstairs. Although you'd reminded him about it every time you'd been over, now you were thankful as you could fetch it as something John could sit on rather than the floor.
With a slight shuffling step, you bring the stool along with you and to where John waits, leaning against the sink, his eyes finding you the second you're visible through the open door of his en suite.
"Sitâ, you motion to the stool you brought once John had moved to the side and let you set it down inside the shower's glass doors. A slight tug that doesn't evolve into a smile is present at the edge of his mouth as he follows your command.
When John makes himself comfortable on the stool, you gently nudge the back of his head with your fingers, urging him to bow forward to make it easier for you. Even sitting down, he reaches your stomach.
Pushing up the sleeves of your hoodie, you turn on the tap, testing the water steadily flowing from the showerhead on your hand. When finally finding the perfect temperature, you keep the stream gentle so as not to splash the bandages covering his left arm but rather trickle forward and down to the floor.Â
Small groans of appreciation escape John as you wash his hair, fingers running over his scalp to wet every single strand before setting down the showerhead and massaging some shampoo over his head. Earthy and clean scents fill the warm air as it steams every reflective surface inside the bathroom.
You do a double cleanse, not because you think John needs it, but because he seems to enjoy the gentle pressure off your fingers as they run up and down his scalp.Â
After washing away the last sudds, you take a towel from the rack and cover his head. Your laughter fills the air as you hear the huff of amusement from beneath the fabric draped over him as you attempt to dry his hair as much as possible by ruffling the fabric.
Ultimately, you slide the towel from his head, letting it hang around his neck to catch any stray droplets from reaching his shoulder. John turns towards you upon having his vision uncovered again, and you instinctively step closer when he does, inspecting his face.
âI donât trust myself trimming your beardâ, you card your fingers through the brown strands on his cheek. A low huff pulls your eyes to the blue ones steadily watching you.
âCan do that myself in a day or two. Youâve done plenty enough, loveâ. Johnâs about to stand, but your hand softly settles on his healthy shoulder.
âI only said I donât want to go near the best part of you with scissorsâ.
âThe best part, eh?â He pinches the back of your lower thigh, a squeak slipping out of you as you bat his hand away with a lower lip curled between your teeth.
âDonât bite the hand that feeds youâ, you chide with an evolving smile.Â
You catch Johnâs chuckle as you switch your attention to the counter, eyeing his products as neatly lined up as usual and the set of your own products beside them. Stepping away to the sink and out of his reach, you grab one of the face towels from the stack heâd bought for you to always have at his place, along with the other products needed.
When you turn back, you set the things on the sink-edge beside you.Â
âSaid I canât shape it up, but that doesnât mean I canât make the most out of what I can doâ.
âYou pamperinâ me?â Your eyes flit sideways, meeting a blue gaze watching you with a tilted head.
âIâm taking care of you, Johnâ, you corrected him as you turned to wet your hands beneath the tap and squirted some cleanser into your hands.Â
John doesn't respond, only remains quiet when you start coating his face in the milky substance, merely staring up at you for a few seconds before his eyes flutter close when you cock a brow down at him.
You gently rub away the invisible grime on his face, staying clear of his beard as you lather his face. Humming gently, you wipe away the suds after a few dozen seconds and continue with the beard shampoo.Â
Youâd seen the man, who now lets his chest deflate with a content sigh as you easily angle his head backwards with a few fingers beneath his chin, do his beard-routine a few times. It wasnât difficult to remember, and youâre happy you didnât need to ask John and bring him out of the relaxed state heâd entered as you used one of the brushes to rub the product into his beard.
Using the opposite edge of the towel, you also dry off his beard.Â
You wash off the white foam from the brush as you discard the towel before coating his skin in your moisturiser, only to continue by dropping some oil into your palms before you settle them over his lower face, smoothening them over the strands.Â
As you shift to the sink again, you reach for his comb, only to find Johnâs eyes had fluttered open when you turn back.Â
Those blues of his are soft as you gently comb his facial hair with slow movements. His hand settles on the outside of your thigh when you pick up the beard balm, warming it between your palms. The vanilla white lotion softens and warms between your hands before you work it through his beard.Â
Slowly, John's hand moves to the back of your leg while fingers lightly start tracing the line of his beard and skin, both much smoother than previously.Â
The moment was soft, gazing at one another in silence, before you cupped John's cheek and bent down. A gentle smell of something nutty from John's beard invades your nose as you press your lips against his.Â
Even if you end up trading multiple kisses, the pauses never let you drift further away than for your lips to rush against one another.
John felt the last bit of tension leave his body. Something awfully soft had infiltrated his heart as you fussed around him, your hand leaving gentler touches than even the Doc had done when heâd returned from the field with his shot-up shoulder. Heâd tried to ward off your help and doting, but now he realised he needed this.
Heâs been on 24/7 for over a week. Heâs run on less food than at home. Countless times, his mouth had watered when thinking about the roast youâd shared before his deployment. Heâs run on minimal sleep for several days in a row, barely more than half asleep when given a moment of tranquillity and nowhere near as relaxed as when having you in his arms. Heâd looked over his shoulder for more than double the amount, only to be hit by a bullet in the end anyway, coming home broken.
John pulls away, cupping one of the hands that rests on his cheek, turning to kiss your palm. But, when he gazes at you again, your brows draw together.
âDonâtâ.
"I didnât say anythin'"
You only shake your head. "I know what youâre thinking, and no, you're not a burden".
"But I'm a broken man at the moment, love. Just see how much you've needed to do today", he scoffs, letting go of your hand, letting his fall onto his lap. You stop John from turning his head to the side, away from you, instead forcing him to watch you.
You look down at the man who meets your gaze with an almost sorrowful look. "And you think that bothers me?"
"Why wouldnât it? Itâs not your responsibility. Should just not have gone about gettinâ shot-".
"Jonathan Price". The use of his government name shuts his grumbling right up, his eyes even widening the slightest bit. "What bothers me isnât that you got shot. I know the dangers of your work. What does bother me is seeing you in pain".
"I appreciate it, but thereâs no need for you to do all this, to care for me". His voice is softer, but you still shake your head.
"Yes, there is because I love you". You barely notice the weight of what you say, those three chosen words leaving your lips in a too-natural fashion to be the first time. But rather than reluctance preceding and nerves following them, there's a sense of them being long overdue in the first place.
"I hate how much it hurts seeing your pain, so itâs not that I need to do anything for you. I very much care because I want to, John".
Compared to a few moments ago when John wanted to turn away from you, now he can't take his eyes off you. Whatever murky emotion which clouded his eyes has lifted, those blues clearer than ever as he stares right back at you, lips slightly parted.
"Iâve said it before, but you're too good for me".
"They say you get what you deserve". You offer John a smile, and something just crumbles then.
"God, you donât know how much I love you, darlinâ".
Your chest swells, heart suddenly pumping much warmer blood through your body. "So let me take care of you now when you need it".
"I-Â of course", he breathes, voice remarkably thin to support his gravelly cords as he shuts his eyes tightly. John gives you a single nod instead of attempting to continue his sentence, and you lean down to press a kiss against his forehead.Â
His arm loops around your waist the best it can from his slumped forward angle, pulling you close so his head rests against your upper stomach. Despite his hair being wet, you card your fingers through it, kissing the top of his head, his warm exhalation warming your skin despite the thick sweater.
"Goinâ to be one hell of a Christmas". The first half of the sentence is mumbled into you, the second half clearer as John looks up at you again.
You hum, feeling how one of the strands at the back of his neck drips water onto your fingers. "I only see more of a reason to have a lazy day".
"Where you do everythinâ".
"Hush, now youâve allowed me to do the work for once". You twirl the hair at the nape of his neck, looking back into those blues.
"Still donât want you workinâ yourself to death". He gives you an honest rather than pointed look.
"I should say that to you", you only muse lightly in return, not needing to avert your eyes to his bandages as they shine like a beacon in the corner of your vision. "And I reckon itâs going to be fine either way".
"Mâsureâ, his reply is hummed into the sparse space between your faces before your lips press against his in a fleeting kiss. Before you lean back and straighten, however, his hand cups the back of your neck. "Thank you for all of this, love".
"You know itâs nothing". Although John doesnât answer as you step backwards, you donât catch any guilt, no trace of the previous gloom in his gaze. He believes your words, the crows-feet at the edges of his eyes and smile-lines around his mouth further proof.

Ruby swipes on her signature red lip as she looks over her outfit in the full-length mirror by the front door. She adjusts her boring brown Jedi robes Nathan insisted she wear to juxtapose his Darth Maul. She scoffs to herself knowing damn well he has no idea who Darth Maul is and probably found the costume at Spirit Halloween. Reluctantly she sighs, the distant dream of her Sabine Wren cosplay lying buried under clothes in her closet never to see the light of day.
Her phone chimes, ripping her from her brief moment of sadness.Â
She frantically types âOMWâ as she slides into the Uber.
Nathan <Ru, I have been waiting for over an hour.>
She can hear Nathanâs anger through the screen, silently sending a prayer for the driver to go faster. Ruby and Nathan were high school sweethearts that turned into an on-and-off-and-on-again situationship while they were away in college, but when Ruby dropped out of college to pursue music full-time as an indie artist - things went sour really fast. He never understood her passion for music, too self-absorbed in his reputation at the Ivy League university he got into thanks to his wealthy parents.Â
Her fingers freeze over the screen as her heart shatters into a thousand pieces.Â
Nathan <You know what, since it seems like you donât care about MY time, we are done. For real this time. Donât even bother coming.>
Tears stream down her face as she powers down her phone and shoves it into her purse. He can go fuck himself, Ruby thinks to herself - and she gets an even better idea.Â
âS-sorry but can you take me downtown instead?â she asks, her voice wavering slightly as the realization sinks in. She takes a deep breath, drying her tear-stained cheeks as the driver pulls up to Nathanâs most hated bar- which happens to be her favorite, Third Base.Â
The bar is bustling as she walks in. Itâs been updated since she had been there, all those months ago when Nathan was doing a semester abroad in Rome. Ruby instantly fell in love with the quaint charm of the dive bar. It didnât help that the bar owner was ruggedly handsome, the kind of personality that was homegrown from a small town. She ached for the slow stroll of home instead of the hustle and bustle of city life. Festive Halloween touches add to the ambiance and thatâs when she realizes other patrons are also adorned in costume.
âHavenât seen you in a while,â his familiar twang wraps around her like a warm blanket. She should probably be sobbing into her wine glass in a rose-scented bubble bath in the comfort of her home instead she replies with âWhiskey neat, double.â She notices heâs the only one not dressed up, even his bartender is sporting a risque outfit.Â
Ruby is about to mention the lack of costume when he asks âThat kinda night?â Ruby downs the drink without a word, slides off the metal bar stool, and makes her way to the old jukebox in the corner of the bar. She scrolls through the CDs not really impressed with the selection.Â
âNot finding what youâre looking for?â A distorted voice has Ruby turning. She opens her mouth to grumble about the lackluster music selection, but her brain turns to static. Sheâs met face-to-face with Kylo Ren.Â
âI-âÂ
âHere, you might like this.â Another man dressed up as a Mandalorian pushes between them. Ruby stands in awe as the two men fight over a CD. Her awe turns into appreciation as she notices the small details in the homemade costume. Whoeverâs in the suit spent hours making it.
âCan I buy you another drink?â A deep voice comes from the bar.
She turns and freezes. âN-nathan? Howâd yo-â She is silenced by a red-painted finger as the man towers over her. Realization strikes her that this man is too tall to be Nathan.Â
âNathan isnât here Jedi.â Boldly, the stranger spits in her face - playing into the villainous role - yet Ruby canât help but be even more aroused.Â
Ruby finds herself being shoved into the back seat of an SUV. Not in a kidnappy way but in a rushed I-want-to-devour-you-way. The look Darth Maul is giving her has her pussy throbbing. She slides her way in as Kylo and Mando hop in the front. Warm lips pressed against her and; at this moment, she couldn't care less if she was covered in red and black body paint by the end of this. She pulls him in closer as his gloved hand teases the waistband of her leggings. Her head thuds against the window when he slips his fingers inside her as his tongue explores her mouth. Suddenly, his long finger slams into the sweet spot and she bites down on his bottom lip, hard.Â
He groans, âYou gonna surrender, Jedi?âÂ
âFuck, donât stop,â she whines as he finger fucks her all the way to her apartment. By the time they get to her apartment, his gloves are drenched and the back seat is damp where she was sitting, but Ruby could give a single fuck as in the span of 30 minutes she had already had more satisfying orgasms than Nathan could ever give her. Maybe itâs the adrenaline or the thrill? Probably both. If one of them can satisfy her alone with his fingers imagine all three of them.
âYou wanna do this Jedi?â Kylo Ren asks once in Rubyâs apartment.
âItâs not every night you get three masked men in your apartment,â she smirks her hands roaming over his black robes.Â
âYouâll have to wear this,â the foreign Mandalorian slides a blindfold over her eyes.Â
âThatâs fine,â her breath catches as her hands drift up to grip Renâs mask. âCan I take this off?âÂ
Abruptly, she finds herself pressed against a solid chest behind her and warm lips devour her own. She tangles her fingers into long hair and he groans when she yanks.Â
âI was not expecting long hair, but itâs so soft.â Ruby twirls a strand around her finger. Her hand cups his cheek and pulls him into another kiss.
âRenâs not the only one here Jedi.â Her heartbeat skyrockets at the memory of Darth Maul in the backseat of the car. The way he towered over her, his eyes dark with lust, and his voice made her pussy flutter.
 The mattress groans with the added weight and Rubyâs mind begins to spiral. She yelps with teeth and stubble brush against the skin on her inner thigh. Fuck, Mando has facial hair that's fucking hot. Ruby giggles as he inches closer to her core and at the same time remembers how Nathan can only grow a pathetic and patchy beard. She squirms, aching for roughness against her pussy..
âOh youâre a feisty one,â Maul whispers in her ear as he settles down beside her. Suddenly, her hands are bound loosely with something smooth and soft. Her brain rationalizes one of her summer scarves that hangs from the hooks over the door. A part of her hopes itâs her favorite one, the black one with skulls.Â
âOur red hot Ruby.â he nips at her ear and at the same time one of them pinches her nipple. Ruby yelps at the sudden pain, endorphins surging through her body. âYou like a little pain with your pleasure, hm?âÂ
Smack
A large hand makes contact with her inner thigh. âFuck! Yes,â Ruby yelps. âYes, I like pain ân pleasure!â
Lips brush against her cheek. âOur little pain slut.â
âOur little pain slut,â Mando mumbles against her throbbing clit as he sinks two thick fingers inside her.Â
âFuck,â she groans as her pussy walls stretch from the invasion.Â
âGod Ruby⊠have you ever- â he trails off, lost in thought. He sucks her clit between his lips and thrusts his fingers into the spongy sweet spot. Ruby writhes as the coil winds tighter in her core. Large hands clamp down on her shoulders to keep her steady as her body starts to tremble. In a silent scream, the dam breaks, and euphoria floods through her body as she releases herself onto Mandoâs face. She writhes oversensitive and overwhelmed as he laps up everything she gives him.Â
âLittle, pĂ€rlaâ Mando pants, âYou are divine.âÂ
Ruby finds herself being pulled gently to sit upright. âHereâs some water,â Ren says softly, handing her a glass of water.
âThank you.â Her cheeks warm to the kind gesture. âNathan never took care of me like this.â Her lips press into a thin line and her shoulders slump forward as her mind flashes each disappointing experience.Â
A warm hand settles on the small of her back, gently rubbing up and down. âAinât nothinâ but a good time, hm?â Mando whispers seductively, his breath is hot against the shell of her ear. Â
Ruby briefly wonders if that would have been the track he chose at the bar. Her heart flutters at the parallels and she enthusiastically adds, âHell yeah!âÂ
She squeals at first when hands grip her hips and hoist her onto his lap. His hard cock
âYou ready for a good time, sweetheart?â Ren asks before pulling her into a heated kiss. His free hand roams over her tits as another set of hands rubs up and down her thighs. Sandwiched between the two men her heart races with anticipation.Â
âGot any lube, darling?â Mando asks as Ren pulls her up onto her knees.Â
âIn⊠the⊠drawerâŠâ she replies between kisses. Her heart leaps into her throat when a cold and wet finger circles the tense muscle of her asshole.
âCan Mando fill you up back there while Ren plays with your pretty pussy?â Maulâs baritone makes her spine tingle. Mandoâs finger stills at her back entrance and Ren nips at her other ear.Â
âCan I watch?â Maul asks, pulling the blindfold off and Rubyâs eyes widen, taking in the sight before her. Renâs stormy blue-gray eyes captivate her first, then his soft smile and tint of pink on his cheeks. She canât resist carding her hand through his hair, so smooth. He leans into her touch, entranced by the gentleness. The world around them darkness slightly and she briefly forgets about the other two. She could stay here, locked in his gentle gaze but her eyes begin to wonder. Her other hand traces the tattoos on his shoulder to his wrist where in the corner of her vision she spies his large thick cock.Â
Suddenly, a gloved hand grips her wrist and twists her sideways. His fingers entwine with hers as the other grips her chin. âDonât forget about us, Jedi.â His deep brown eyes are piercing and she notices that his face is the only exposed skin free of paint. His abdominal muscles flex as her gaze lowers, she huffs disappointed that he is clothed from the waist down.
Her eyes widen at the sound of a deep moan. Maul tilts her head back so she can see the man behind her. His grasp loosens completely and she twists her body more to see Mando better.Â
âHello, pĂ€rla,â he moans her nickname, his eyelids flutter closed as he strokes himself.Â
âLooks like Mandoâs ready. Are you?â Maul asks.Â
Ruby remains fixed on watching Mando touch himself. She mutters a breathless, âYeah.âÂ
âCome back to your supreme leader.â A tinge of pain pricks at Rubyâs scalp when Ren fists her hair and tugs. She moans as the pain melts into pleasure.Â
âFinally showing me your dark side, Ren,â Ruby smirks. âI like it.âÂ
âGood.â Ren crowds into Rubyâs space, thrusting his hand around her throat. He squeezes slightly then releases pressure completely. âLean back.â
Ruby adjusts her stance to straddle Mandoâs hips. Together, Mando and Ren guide her to lower herself onto him. Maul groans beside them. The stretch takes her breath away, if only for a moment as the hand tightens around her neck and lips crash onto hers. Ruby succumbs to the sensations letting Mando set the pace while she battles for breath with the fallen Jedi. Ren shoves her back against Mandoâs chest by the throat. She sucks in the air when he releases his hand, chest heaving with every inhalation.Â
âMy turn,â Ren growls, nipping at her earlobe. He squeezes the soft tissue of her breasts as his mouth trails kisses down her torso. Grinning he spreads her legs apart wider and his lips gently kiss her tummy before descending through her silken folds. Mando thrusts into her as Ren teases her other hole with his tongue and then sucks at her clit. Sheâs teetering on the edge of bliss when it is abruptly ripped away.
âNo cumming yet darling.â Mando stills inside her just as Ren flattens his tongue licking one final time before pulling away.Â
âDo you want a taste?â Ren asks, his lips ghosting over hers. Her mouth drops open to respond but without warning, fingers slide their way in. Disappointment sours her stomach when Ren leans over and kisses Mando. Greedily, she flicks her tongue around Renâs fingers in hopes of vying for his attention.Â
âIs our Ruby a little jealous she is getting attention?â Maul laughs. In the heat of the moment, Ruby had forgotten all about him. âNo⊠you arenât jealous, but your needy little cunt is.â Desperation flashes through her as she bites down on Renâs fingers. Ren huffs a laugh against Mandoâs lips,Â
âI heard that cunt is still needy, hm?â Ren tilts his head, his gaze scanning over her body. A small whine leaks out of her mouth. He slides his fingers out of her mouth and onto her throat. His lips curl into a devilish smirk, âYou want more?âÂ
âYes, yes, yes, please!â Rubyâs lashes flutter when Ren sinks into her dripping pussy.Â
âSo tight-â Ren groans.
âDude, I can feel you,â Mando gasps when Ren bottoms out.
âThis is the hottest thing Iâve ever seen,â Maul muses.
Ren holds her steady as Mando slowly thrusts in and out of her.Â
âFeeling good?â Maul whispers lowly in her ear.
âS-so good, so full.. he's so bigâ Her words melt into nothingness when Ren flexes inside her.
âFuck fuck fuck, Iâm gonna come⊠donât-â Ruby whines as Mando and Ren alternate thrusting into her ass and cunt.
âRu, you home? I saw your car out front.â Her exâs voice booms through the apartment, his words slur together in one long word. But she canât be bothered as pressure builds in her core.Â
âShhh,â Mando shushes her with a hand to her mouth
âMaybe,â Maul leans over and whispers turning Ruby slightly towards him. Grinning he offers his eager cock to her and she eagerly nods. Ren smacks Maul in the arms when he moans as Ruby takes him into her mouth.Â
The bedroom door swings open and Maulâs cock throbs between her lips. Ren and Mando are too far gone to care when -
âWHAT THE FUCK!â
Ruby sighs against Maulâs softening cock slipping it from her mouth while she is still being pounded between two beautiful men. It takes all of her strength not to come when she leans around Ren to stare Nathan dead in the eyes.Â
âFuck! You!â she groans as she comes, flipping Nathan one and then sucking on each of her middle fingers. Her eyes roll back as she catches a glimpse of him stalking out the door. When the door slams shut she sinks into Mando as euphoria floods her body.
âDamn, that was hot!â Maul says impressed. Ruby peers up through her lashes at Maul whoâs stoking his now hard cock.Â
âYeah?â Ruby cocks an eyebrow. Without hesitation, she pulls his free hand and sucks on his middle finger.Â
Maul sucks in a curse. âDamn girl, fuck.â Ruby bites down at Maulâs finger, not painfully hard, but enough when her hair is yanked back and she is pulled off.Â
âWh-â
âOpen up,â Mando commands as he grips her jaw forcing her mouth open. Ruby opens her mouth wide and sticks her tongue out with anticipation. Mando lowers his hands to rest around her throat squeezing gently. Ren tucks a loose strand of hair behind her ear before leaning down to suck on her nipple. She jolts when he bites down, her pussy walls clenching around his semi-hard cock. Mando slides his hand down her middle to circle her clit as Ren plays with her tits.Â
âFuckfuckfuck,â Maul curses as he splatters his cum all over Rubyâs face. Small whimpers come from her open mouth as another orgasm wrecks through her. She swallows then licks her lips and smiles up at Maul before pulling him closer to lick and suck at his softening cock. She hisses when Ren pulls off her tit with an audible pop.Â
Ruby hums satisfiedly, leaning back against Mando, as Ren slides out of her. Before he can say another word, she mumbles, âBaby wipes in the bathroom down the hall.âÂ
She doesnât open her eyes but sinks further into bliss as Mando rubs his hands up and down her arms. âYou did so well for us PĂ€rla,â he whispers in her ear. All she can muster is a hummed agreement.Â
âLet me clean you up,â Maul offers when Ren returns. She blinks to find soft brown eyes and a dazzling smile to greet her. âThank you,â she whispers. âAll of you,â she adds when Ren takes Maulâs place in front of her to press a gentle kiss to her cheek. As Ren and Maul redress, Mando steals more kisses as he helps Ruby up to dress her.Â
âHere,â Maul hands Ruby her glass of water. âYou can call me Noah.âÂ
âHi, Noah.â she flashes him a dazzling smile in the afterglow.
âFood?â Ren asks before adding,â The nameâs Nick and heâs Jolly.âÂ
âNo please- you guys can go, Iâll be alright.â Ruby dismisses, gesturing to the door. Â
âPlease?â Jolly wraps her up in his arms. âDinner and a movie and we will leave after that.â
âWe just donât want you to be alone,â Nick adds.Â
âFine.â Ruby relents as her stomach rumbles. âThai food and the new Deadpool movie.âÂ
The four of them settle on blankets and pillows in the living room with Ruby in the middle. She finds herself leaning against Jollyâs shoulder and for the first time in a long time has finally felt at peace.

Things take an unexpected turn when reader spends one night with Oliver. Noah, with whom sheâs always had a good friendship that crossed the boundaries of âjust friendsâ more frequently than often, finds out, and his reaction is far from delighted. However, a heated argument makes him realize his selfish tendencies toward her, and maybe itâs time he gives her what she wants, what she craves, even if it means having to share her with another man.Â

Noah, on the other hand, was meeting him only for the third time. The first had been back in the States, where they were introduced to each other at some festival, and later when Oliver pitched the idea of Bad Omens supporting his band in their UK tour. There had been many phone and FaceTime calls in between, giving way to a more solid friendship fueled by mutual interests and a distinct passion for music. Now it seemed they had one more thing in common: the girl they fucked.Â
And here I was, planning on buying some sexy lingerie because they had come up with the idea of having a threesome, and I had said yes.Â

D23: Frozen: What to expect | Discussion
D23 is just a week away, coming next weekend and we're expected to get a lot of Disney content! But will Frozen be a part of it? I believe so, yes. Frozen has two films coming out, Frozen 3 and 4 and also has a series coming out called Frozen: Winter Festival based on the leaked dolls so it's a must that Disney feeds us new Frozen content!
Please note that I'll just be guessing at what they could announce at the panel. Nothing's confirmed yet. These are my thoughts and opinions based on the evidence we have. What kind of Frozen content could we be expecting exactly? Let me break it down.
Frozen 3 and 4
With the announcement of Frozen 4 earlier this year with Frozen 3 already in the works, it's likely Disney will give us the full release date for Frozen 3 and 4. So far we know Frozen 3 will be released in 2026. Given the previous two films release dates, the third and fourth installment will also most likely be in November. Earlier this year (or was it last year?...) a few release date slots were leaked and one of them was 27 November 2026. Same for Frozen 4, except the date was 24 November 2027, a year after Frozen 3 like i expected given it's a two set film. So we assume Frozen 3 and 4 will have those as its release date but that has not been confirmed as of yet but it should do during the D23 expo.
Series
A few months back, we were all surprised by the leaks of brand new Frozen dolls with will be available on 15th September (A day before my birthday!). The shorts are set to release this fall. What's so special about dolls? Well it's also the information that comes with it. The info can be found in the link above but it states that the dolls, with new outfits, are part of Frozen: Winter Festival. We all thought at the time that this was a short like Frozen Fever, Olaf's Frozen Adventure and Once Upon a Snowman. But later on with another set of dolls, in the same outfit but included Olaf, the Nokk and a carriage. The description of the set reveals Frozen: Winter Festival is a short-form series. Short-form series are series with episodes under 20 - 30 minutes.
This is one of the doll packs in a box:
The box is what I want to draw attention too because it includes the recent new Elsa render/ still and a new logo design for Frozen. The title is the same but what it's in, the diamond shape with a detail pattern on the sides. The box has a blue purplish pink colour on it and the background seems to be of the woods we see in the first film. It can't be the Enchanted forest because it doesn't have a lake, and this is not the dark sea because that's part of the beach. Some of you might be like what's the big deal but for some it might feel a sense of nostalgia because this aesthetic of the box is similar to Frozen's aesthetic. Frozen 2 had the autumn leaf and a lot of things felt different. Change was the element of the movie anyways. But this short could be a mix of Frozen and Olaf's Frozen Adventure which I'm super excited for!
With this series set to make the beginning of Winter we expect a similar vibe to Olaf's Frozen Adventure with the holidays theme. Here are the descriptions for Elsa and Anna's dolls:
What we'll see in the short, based on the dolls and their description:
ïżœïżœïżœ The main Frozen gang will host an inaugural (mark the begging of winter) Winter Festival to celebrate Arendelle, family and friends
âą Some familiar faces
âą Two new looks for Elsa and Anna: A ball gown and a festival attire
âą The Nokk will take part in the event
I also just realised Elsa's birthday is on the Winter Solstice, December 21st aka the beginning of Winter! So I would love to see Elsa's birthday addressed in the series! We have Anna's birthday and now we could have Elsa's birthday! And it's a double celebration because we should have Elsa's birthday and definitely the Winter Festival.
At the expo, we should have an update about this short-form series and get a full release date. A trailer and first look with a poster is possible too if it's set to come this fall, which is just around the corner. And also the cast reveal and story synopsis.
The series will be animated like the movies and shorts. Short-form series usually, as far as I know, air in TV but I'm not sure if this will air in TV or go straight onto Disney plus.
Any other new Frozen content?
Other than the movies, Frozen 3 and 4 and the short-form series, Frozen: Winter Festival, nothing else has been leaked or confirmed at this point with regards to the franchise so I can't say what else to expect. The team are good at revealing unexpected surprises with Frozen 3's announcement than Frozen 4's and then we have doll leaks revealing an upcoming short-form series (could be accidentally on purpose) so who knows what else is in store for us. (Though I know not many of you will want to expect or have high hopes which is fair)
The series is probably there to keep us fed until we have the big meal (Frozen 3 and 4) in two years. After the series is over, we'll probably have to wait til Frozen 3 and 4 for another big Frozen content. Announcements like casting could be released in 2025, next year and trailers we'll get in 2026 if it follows the same pattern as the previous two films. But then again you never know. We never expected the series so who knows, Disney could surprise us at any time.
And that's all I believe will be announced Frozen wise as far as we know. Anything else they've got planned will also be announced unless they're saving it for a later event. If you guys are expect anything else to be announced in D23, let me know!

Class A Event Cafe Business Model
Analyzing Gakushu's school festival business plan from a comprehensive finance and psychological perspective reveals several key strengths and potential risks. I'll delve into the intricacies of the revenue model, cost structure, operational efficiency, and psychological tactics for a nuanced understanding of his business strategy and its implications. (This may get wordy.)
The event cafe's primary revenue source is the 500 yen entrance fee, which provides attendees with free food, drinks, and access to performances. This model banks on repeat visits, assuming high engagement levels. The psychological underpinning here is the âfear of missing outâ (FOMO), as events are scheduled at one-hour intervals, creating urgency and encouraging multiple payments.
Examining the cost structure, Gakushuâs reliance on free performances by pop stars pals and comedian buddies significantly cuts entertainment expenses. This cost-saving measure, however, hinges on personal relationships, posing sustainability risks. If these relationships wane or if performers seek compensation in the future, it could disrupt the cost structure. Since this is a fictional case scenario, I'm going with the possibility that Gakushu's network can be relied on.
The endorsement deal with Suzume Izakaya food services provides substantial financial support and in-kind contributions. This sponsorship not only reduces operational costs but also enhances the festivalâs credibility, as Suzume Izakayaâs brand reputation can attract more visitors who trust the quality of the food and beverages.
Offering free food and drinks is a double-edged sword. On one hand, it is an attractive feature that can draw a large number of attendees, enhancing perceived value and satisfaction. On the other hand, it presents a significant cost burden. Effective inventory management and supplier negotiations are crucial to balance cost and supply. There is also a risk of overconsumption, which must be managed to avoid resource depletion.
Operational efficiency is another critical component of Gakushu's plan. Organizing events at one-hour intervals on different stages maximizes space and time utilization, keeping the audience engaged and minimizing downtime. This continuous engagement strategy ensures that attendees are constantly entertained, increasing the likelihood of repeat entrance fee payments. The immediate start of subsequent events also helps maintain a steady flow of visitors, reducing congestion and enhancing the overall customer experience.
Psychologically, the one-hour event intervals create a sense of urgency and scarcity, compelling attendees to make quick decisions to attend multiple events. This tactic leverages the psychological principle that limited availability increases perceived value, driving higher engagement and repeat visits.
The use of celebrity performances taps into social proof and authority. Featuring well-known pop stars and comedians draws their fan bases and generates buzz, enhancing the festivalâs attractiveness. This social influence can significantly boost attendance, as people tend to follow the actions of those they admire. The endorsement by Suzume Izakaya also adds an element of authority and trust, reassuring attendees about the quality and safety of the festivalâs offerings.
The all-inclusive 500 yen entrance fee creates a high perceived value, making attendees feel they are getting a good deal. This pricing strategy increases their willingness to pay, especially when considering the continuous entertainment and free provisions. The plan also aims to foster customer loyalty by ensuring a captivating experience that encourages repeat visits.
Quoting what the Virtuosos said, such a complex and multifaceted plan is particularly challenging for a third-year junior high student. The management skills required to coordinate performances, manage resources, negotiate partnerships, and ensure operational efficiency are significant. Gakushuâs ability to pull off this plan and win the school festival showcases exceptional organizational and leadership skills. This ability to leverage personal networks and psychological principles to drive engagement and revenue are commendable. Successfully managing such a demanding project at 15 could be foreshadowing of his future as an executive when he started a business in Silicon Valley after receiving an MBA at MIT.

Halloween Night at Pigsy's
Summary:
The city, after the mayor's vacation in America, decides to throw Halloween, including trick or treating. The Traffic Light Trio is just focused on all the kids dressed up like them.
AO3/Ko-Fi
The announcement came three days after October 31st.
The mayor- the actual mayor, Long Xiaojiao had checked- had apparently been on vacation in the United States. She had been there in time to watch the American holiday of Halloween in full display, including trick or treating. It was usually overshadowed by the Mid-Autumn Festival and the Double Ninth Festival, until this year. She had gotten the idea to do mainly the trick or treating through the cityâs main businesses- with candy provided by the city- to stimulate cash flow and, more importantly, as a way to bond over the past year or two of city and country-wide trauma.
"Hey, stop that sad look," Xiaojiao said, nudging Qi Xiaotian away from studying the announcement. "Not all of it is your fault. Isn't that what you're talking about with your therapist?"
"I mean, I guess." Xiaotian huffed, turning off his phone. "So, are you going to dress up?"
"Obviously!" Xiaojiao said, typing on her phone. "What about you guys?"
âPf,â Pigsy snorted, bagging up some noodles. âIf youâll catch me dressing up on that day. Itâll be a fire hazard.â He paused, glancing over at Tang munching down on his third bowl of noodles of the morning, and then groaned. âBut I will be offering a discount on noodles to those who dress up.â
Tang looked up with a gasp.
âDONâT LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT-â
âI wonder if I can get Wukong over to help pass out candy?â Xiaotian wondered as Tang started to gush at the idea. âHe loves kids, and I think a lot of kids would be excited!â Even if they werenât big fans like he was as a kid, it was still the Monkey King.
He was suddenly excited for this.
Things worked quickly in the city.
Almost by magic, every shop in the city was decorated with orange and black, green and purple, pumpkins and bats a few hours after the mayorâs announcement. Xiaotian couldnât help but soak it in as he made his deliveries, enjoying the âspooky musicâ that shops began to play and the deals that were announced mirroring Pigsyâs own decision.
At least capitalism knew when to jump onto something.
Finally, the day arrived.
As he hoped, Sun Wukong agreed to come. He even ordered a truckload of candy to be delivered to the noodle shop, only adding to the sheer amount that Pigsyâs Noodles were willing to give.
An hour before trick or treating started, Xiaotian hurried down the stairs. Xiaojiao had offered to take him costume shopping, but he had refused. He had a perfectly great Monkey King cosplay! Sure, the real one would be there, but he was over the embarrassment of owning several pieces of merch.
Hopefully.
The noodle shop was all decked out, excluding Tang in his usual seat. Sandy was hurrying around, adding more cobwebs and purple glitter here and there, dressed up in a witch dress that complimented his biceps. Xiaojiao, dressed up as She-Ra, snickered from her spot as she snapped a picture of Mo in his little witch hat.
âHuh,â Pigsy said, looking around as he chopped bok choy. âI thought that six-eared weirdo would be here.â
âBai He texted me,â Xiaotian admitted. âSheâs under the cut-off, so she decided to invite Macaque trick or treating with her family.â He had even been willing to transform as a bat to compliment Bai Heâs Count Dracula costume and that picture was going in the blackmail folder.
âWoah, bud! Looking good!â
Xiaotian looked up and nearly felt his heart stop at his own reflection. For a second, he was convinced that he had summoned a clone, then a flick caught his eye. Sticking out of his trademark red pants was a familiar golden monkey tail. Now that he looked closer, he could also see the blue eyeshadow and eyeliner.
âMonkey King!â Xiaojiao called, unaware of her best friend gaping. âItâs no fun if you use shapeshifting!â
âAwâŠwell, you got a point.â In a flash of gold, there was Sun Wukong, still wearing his clothes. âHow do I look, bud? I donât pull off orange as well as you do, but-â He paused, staring at him like he was deeply concernedâŠwhich he probably was. âYou okay there, bud?â
Xiaotian sniffled. âIâmgreat.â
Wukong smiled and patted his shoulder as he walked past before calling to ask Pigsy how he could help.
The hour flew by once Xiaotian calmed down. He had to stop Wukong from making a bowl of candy with his hair, but that was fine. Soon enough, the clock struck six and a small yellow bundle rang the little bell that Sandy had rigged up.
âTrick or treat!â the kid called.
Xiaotian grabbed a bowl of candy. âWell, happy-â He looked down and nearly burst into tears again, cutting off his response.
The jacket. The bandana. The hair flap.
This little girl was dressed up as him.
âShe really loves you,â one of the adults, her dad he was guessing, said with a smile. âThe minute she heard about you, she insisted on getting a costume of you.â
âThatâŠthatâs cool!â No, he wasnât crying. Pigsy was just cutting onions for the noodles. âYou look really great!â He grabbed a handful of candy and threw it in her bag and grabbed a second handful. His mentor dressing up as him was one thing, this small child looking up to him was another. âIâm sorry, Iâm trying to resist the urge to dump the whole thing in.â
âThatâs fine!â Mini Him chirped and then she tugged under her arm and pulled out a cardboard tube. âLook, I even have my own staff!â
âOh, thatâs perfect!â It looked a little wonky, but what did it matter? This kid loved him and loved him enough to make a version of his staff!
And then she asked the question.
âCan I hold your staff?â
Xiatian froze. Both because more kids were running up, calling his name- was that a replica dragon sword- and alsoâŠno. Just, no. That would lead to a squished kid and his guilt would not be able to handle that. âI donât thinkâŠâ he said, trying to think of the best way to word this refusal as he passed out handfuls to the kids running up. âI donâtâŠâ
âYeah!â
âXiaojiao?!â he sputtered at his best friendâs sudden interruption.
âWe can make it work!â Xiaojiao said, plucking the candy bowl out of his hands and passing it to Wukong, who beamed and grabbed some candy. âOkay? I have some ideasâŠâ
-_-
âOkay!â Xiaotian called, angling his body to be out of the shot of Xiaojiao and Mini Himâs mom. âEveryone say, here comes Monkie Kid!â
âHERE COMES MONKIE KID!â
The cry repeated several times once kids noticed what was happening. Thankfully, nobody threw a fit at not being able to actually hold the staff. Every time, Xiaojiao asked the parents if she could post the picture on her social media, and almost every parent agreed, claiming that they were also going to post the picture on social media.
Across China and even further out for that night and the next few weeks, several demons tuned into social media and nearly had a mass heart attack.
"Just how many rocks does that damn simian have up on his mountain?"Â
"Dear god, it's spreading."
âNope. Nope. Nope nope nope-â
Nezha snickered at the image on the phone Wukong insisted he get and liked it before sending the link to his fatherâs phone. He felt a grin form at his fatherâs horrified scream from across Heaven.
Back to the now, there was a loud cry of âTHANKS!â as the kids rushed away.
âYou having fun?â Xiaotian asked, looking around and feeling his heart lift at so many cheerful childrenâs faces.
âDuh,â Xiaojiao said, raising her hand. A boy dressed like her, carrying the third replica dragon sword he had seen tonight, wasted no time in slapping it before rushing up to another mini Xiaotian to grab his hand. âLook at Wukongâs face, heâs so happy.â Xiaotian glanced over and chuckled at the sight of his mentor, throwing handfuls of candy at the kids. His eyes gleamed in a way he had never seen before.
âOf course he is,â a familiar voice said. âMy uncle has always had a weakness for the smiles of children.â
âRed Son!â Xiaotian cried, whirling around. Red looked awkward, standing in the middle of the street, but he was also dressed up. It was hard to figure out who he was, but the hair horns were a good giveaway. âI didnât think you would show up!â
âUgh, the Dragon Girl threatened me,â the fire demon sighed. âShe has way too much-â
âExcuse me?â
They all turned to see a little boy, staring at them like they were the answer to life. He held a basket full of candy and something in the crook of his arm, but his outfit was styled in a familiar way with a red coat and purple pants. He even had his hair arranged to look like flames, much like Red Sonâs ponytail.
âYes?â
âAre you Red Son?â the little boy asked, starting to bounce on his feet. If all the mini hims and little Xiaojiaos hadnât melted his heart already, Xiaotian was pretty sure his heart was a massive puddle.
âYes?â the fire demon said, sounding baffled.
âOh! I dressed up like you!â The boy spun, his coat even doing the dramatic flip like Red Sonâs coat did sometimes. âYouâre super cool!â
âOf course!â Red said, a grin forming. âWho wouldn't wanna be like me, the great villainous Red So-â
âYouâre my favorite hero!â
Red froze.Â
Xiaojiao snapped a picture of his frozen expression, chuckling to herself. Xiaotian leaned over. âCan you-?â
âAlready sending.â
The fire demon finally unstiffened, staring at the lil him as though he talked in Pig Latin. Xiaotian was honestly prepared for him to burst into flames in rage, like every time he and Xiaojiao claimed he was a hero, but nothing happened. Instead, there was a baffled âExcuse me?â
âYouâre my favorite hero!â the child repeated, pulling the thing out of the crook of his arm. âYou helped save everyone when your dad was possessed!â Aw, he even had a little bull plush that was dressed up like DBK.
âYes, uh, but that was my father, I conquered the city before-â
âAnd you helped save everyone from the Spider Queen!â
âThat- my father-â
The kid continued talking, and Red kept stammering, caught off guard by the childâs insistence. It didnât help that other kids, including ones dressed like him and Xiaojiao, were running up. Wukong walked up and pressed a bowl of candy in Redâs hands, sniggering quietly, and the fire demon began to pass handouts of candy while staring into the void that was this childâs insistence that he was a hero.
âWhat is going on here?â
At least, until a familiar voice boomed out.
âFather!â Red Son yelped, whirling around and, thankfully, not dropping the bowl of candy. Around them, several parents and adults had stopped. Xiaotian felt his stomach sink at the sight of looks of concern and fear. Fuck, he had no idea why DBK had come- his money was on Wukong inviting him for some reason or him looking for his son- but he couldnât let him-
A scream splintered the silence. Xiaotian jumped at the noise and held his staff close, looking around as the noise dragged on. It took him a second to realize that there was something off about the scream as several children pushed past him.Â
It wasnât a scream of fear or pain.
It was a scream of absolute delight.
Several little Reds and even hims and Xiaojiaos were hopping around DBK, all looking overjoyed at the sight of the giant bull. Xiaotian felt his eyes go wide as DBKâs face visibly softened, leaning down so he could talk to the children.
âAre you adorable?â he said to the first lil Red, who grinned like all his wishes had come true. âAre you dressed up like my son?â
âYeah!â The question was only aimed at one child, but ten more voices responded. âHeâs my favorite hero!â Lil Red said with a huge beam.
âIâM NOT A HERO!â
Unlike what Xiaotian would think of how DBK would react at the idea of his son being called a hero, the bull demon actually grinned. âYes, he is. Encourage him, children.â
âFATHER!â
Xiaotian felt a grin form as he sighed in relief, turning to grab another bowl of candy to help pass it out.
The street was getting crowded in a way that felt like a mini-block party. DBK and Red Son were being wonderful to the kids despite the latter's repeated insistence that he wasn't a hero. Xiaotian occasionally had to dip into the shop to help Pigsy with the noodle orders, dodging Pigsy's annoyed yelling as Tang kept swapping his costume out to cash in on half price noodles.
It wasn't until Wukong and Red came in for refills on the candy bowls that a problem presented itself.
"I could've sworn we had more," Xiaotian said, staring at where the candy was. Or, where the candy had been. "Pigsy bought an extra five big bags alongside the candy the mayor provided. We can't have run out that quickly."
"Hey!" Xiaotian poked his head out to see the boar guy from across the street rush over with a frantic look. "Do you guys have an extra candy? I could have sworn I had more, but it's all gone!"
"We're all out too," Xiaotian said, pushing himself out the doorway to look around. "Mabe Mr. Xi has some?" Nope. Five minutes ago, the candy store window had been full of candy, thanks to the elderly man stocking up in mass. Now, he was staring at the store and its empty displays like it was the end of time.
"Excuse me?" A few parents had hurried up. "Did any of our kids accidentally drop some candy here? Their bags are empty," the mom in charge said. "But I've seen you and them pass out candy."
"Plus," a dad spoke up. "They got a lot before we entered this street, so their bags shouldn't be empty like that."
Xiaotian looked out at the entire street. A wave of shock and confusion was rolling through the crowd as more kids looked in their bags and realized that they were suddenly and mysteriously tempting, prompting other kids to check their bags. Angry grumbles and tears were sparking to life, ready to become a blaze of emotion.
"We haven't," Wukong was saying when Xiaotian turned back to the conversation. "We just checked, and all of our candy has disappeared too."
"And I know I grabbed enough for leftovers," Pigsy said, looking both concerned and very annoyed. He glanced at Red Son, who puffed up his chest in annoyance.
"My father and I have better things to do than steal candy from-"
"IT WAS US!"
...of fucking course.
Yin and Jin stood at the end of the street, both dressed like American greasers (at least, if greasers looked like huge nerds). Behind them was a giant canvas bag, easily taller than every building here.
"Monkie Kid! It's your greatest rivals..."
"Yin-"
"ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!" Xiaotian had to interrupt. "This is the rudest thing you guys have ever done!"
"Who cares?!" Jin called. "We have all the candy! We're the winners!"
Fuck, this was ridiculous. And crossed a line. Qi Xiaotian pulled out his staff. âGive that-â
âGIVE THAT BACK!â
The little girl, his first mini-him, glared at Yin and Jin. There was a frightening look in her eyes, and Xiaotian realized, with a bolt of unease, that it was spreading as every kid on the street turned and stared down the demon twins.
Either Yin was incredibly brave or incredibly stupid (Xiaotian was willing to bet the latter), because he leaned forward. âOh, yeah, lil Monkie Kid? What are you gonna do? Huh? What are you-â
An ax went flying from the crowd, beaning him right in the face and sending Yin stumbling back.
That was enough.
âGET THEM!â Mini Him yelled, hoisting up her staff.
A stampede of children went running at Yin and Jin. Not all of them were dressed like him, Xiaojiao, or Red. It didnât matter. The sugar-hungry children launched themselves in a wave at the demon twins. Jin froze, gripping a bloody-nosed Yin, and whimpered, âMommy.â
The twins disappeared under the wave, several staffs and swords and other fake weapons being used for their intended purpose.
Xiaotian stepped forward but froze at a particularly loud scream.
Yeah, he didnât want to get in the middle of that.
âGO! GO! GO BABY DRAGONS!â Apparently, Xiaojiao didnât either. Instead, she hovered at the edge of the mosh pit, her phone up and recording. Red cackled next to her, his hair shooting off sparks.
The crowd briefly parted to reveal Jin, covered in bruises and sobbing his eyes out. âHelp me!â he called, reaching out for Xiaotian. Before he could consider it, Jin was yanked back into the crowd.
A few children eventually broke away from the crowd to attack the giant bag of candy. Xiaotian did approach at that, helping the kids pull open the bag to reveal the honestly huge amount. âWho wants candy!â he called.
âI do.â
He blinked at the sight of the demon accountant, dressed up in a pink silk jacket. âUhâŠâ he said, glancing at Yin and Jin, still being whacked with a bunch of plastic and cardboard weapons.
âDonât even ask,â she said, holding up a bag. âJust please give me some chan pui mui and brown sugar candy. Iâm leaving those idiots to their fate.â
Fair enough. Xiaotian dumped a bunch of candy in her bag without question.
The rest of the children eventually got bored of beating up Yin and Jin and wandered over to collect their candy. If their weapons were dented and they had slight traces of blood on them, Xiaotian didnât say a thing. He simply handed out candy and ignored the sobbing demon twins.
The kids finally left when the clock struck midnight. Mini Him insisted on one last hug from both him and Wukong. Xiaotian accepted it. âYou did really good tonight, helping your friends get their candy back,â he said, unsure of what exactly to say. âKeep being brave?â Was that a good thing to say? Yeah.
âMaybe one day youâll be a hero like Xiaotian!â Wukong said as he hugged her before a yelp came out, loud enough that Xiaotian flinched. Mini Him giggled and pulled back, revealing that a large chunk of golden fur was clenched in her hand. âWhat was that for?â Monkey King whined, rubbing his tail.
âShrine!â she chirped before turning and skipping away. Her parents sent apologetic looks before trailing after her.
Xiaotian refused to say a thing, exceptâŠ
âI think you got tricked back for trying to replace the candy.â
âYeah, yeah,â Wukong sighed, standing up. âNow, who wants to eat all of the leftover candy and watch horror movies?â
âWE DO!â

reading thru the The Final utsuro fight visuals with the vocabulary i gained while liveblogging gintama
[VD: the section of the fight that has gintoki and utsuro-in-takasugi's-body slide through reanimated flashbacks to past scenes of the series that cast them as past versions of themselves, shouyou, and takasugi]
bc the maths is insanes
the initial flashback is to their immediately previous silver soul fight - the casting of the conflict as unending, progressless, in utsuro's favor. have either of them appreciably changed since then? is anything different? what is initially an incomplete brief flash - with utsuro still inhabiting takasugi - solidifies when he regresses to his original body and begins to more effectively counter gintoki. utsuro remains on the right throughout.
direct cut from there pulled further back in time to gintoki's immediately previous fight with takasugi's body in shogun assassination - takasugi on the right, giving utsuro in his body the power of Unconscionable Violence (senseless, gleeful, and knowing you well enough to perpetrate it) (joelletwo tags on squeaky toy video, 2023, repeated endlessly every day since)
but it's mutual - gintoki also knows you well enough to turn the tables and get the upper hand back
(not that this meaningfully stops you for long).
direct cut from there slightly forward in time to gintoki's first fight with utsuro in the immediately following farewell shinsengumi, where the revelations overwhelm him and reduce him to being fueled by the pure instinctual anger of The Demonic, a state of losing yourself and your ability to fight effectively (reductionisms, 2023),
conditions where it's all you can do to hold out against an enemy that represents something so big in your psyche,
which he knows about, since he's been that for you before. back in time again to the first (onscreen) takasugi confrontation, right before taking advantage of your precarious mental state to punch you out of the plotline (kraniumet tags on yamameta post addition, 2022)
but utsuro keeps a vice grip on control of the story, surfacing back into the present to stop and reverse his fall mid-air so he can stay anchored in the battle with gintoki,
meaning he remains vulnerable to the weaknesses of the body he's in, which only ever exists anymore in one memory - you're unable to move, only to witness. a third figure is introduced, who is more you than you here, while gintoki remains himself.
the you more you than you accepts death while you watch it approach with helpless despair and terror.
the collapse of utsuro back into the body he inhabits in present invites a re-examining of the series of flashbacks thus far - where the perspective of who controls the focal memory seems to flip from utsuro to gintoki back to utsuro here, does it? the farewell shins->festival transition is 1:1 substitutional, working out so that utsuro-as-takasugi winds back up on the right.
but it isn't utsuro borrowing a strength of his like Violence here - it's, just like in the execution, succumbing to one of his weaknesses. flipping between the two scenes, takasugi's derailing fear of gintoki as a figure becomes gintoki's of utsuro. there's a double elision of takasugi (missing from farewell shins due to his fight with gintoki) so that utsuro becomes both gintokis - making him both the one who looms large, and the one who is destabilized by.
gintoki signifies something huge to utsuro, after all.
he takes up the role he had back then, the one you assigned him from the start, because half of his time always exists in that one moment now as well.
being the one who acts on the story and moves it forward, brings it to an end.
the regression through history continues to child against unbeatable teacher, again the question of if either of you has grown since you met. gintoki becomes the underdog challenger on the right.
the refusal to give up an unwinnable fight, no matter how many times it's tried, the even-back-then way that gintoki becomes a shouyou figure for others, fluidly shifts you forward in time.
the reverse shot, the perspective flip - the identity lines cross.
he drags you through time with him, until you're someone he knows how to beat.
(because, again, you know each other so well as to be losslessly interchangeable, for two opposing souls in the process of finding themselves - conquering themselves - to become indivisible.) (reductionisms translation, 2024) (yamameta ouroboros poem, 2023)
and even when you win - earn by ceaseless trial and effort the right to play his trick back on him and dethrone/defang him by pushing him literally out of frame - ...
he learns from you as well and pulls himself back in by your anchor.
#gintama#sopping wet gintoki posting#undescribed#borrowing the power of gay love to beat ur dad......................... i guess#the kind of thing i could ramble on abt for 5 million words trying to untangle everything i think about. the connections here..............#but i limit myself kjsdfg so i can come back and use this as a reference for my own confusion lol. this sequence. makes me ILL#videos#art tag

narilamb caught by shamura - oneshot
as the seemingly wisest, i wonder how they'd react to their brother marrying the thing that dethroned them.
----
Shamura groaned, dumping piles of berry seeds onto a dirt hole, stamping them in with their foot. Ignoring the disgusted gaze of a follower beside them, they watered the mess and brushed their hands off, scowling.
"This is foul." they muttered to the atmosphere, shuffling over to the cult kitchen.
It had only been 2 days since they were dethroned, but Shamura was already over it.
They missed silk cradle, they missed power, fame, knowlegde.
Most of all they missed not having to hear their own brothers rant about how lovely this life was.
Kallamar would pull them aside, beaming about how the lamb had made some infernal crystal decor for him to feel "at home". Repulsion was the nicest word to describe Shamura's thoughts on it.
Leshy was worse - he was dethroned first, being there the longest. He would laugh and laugh about how the lamb was so funny and so welcoming. Wasn't it nice he let him tend the cammelia farm because he was familiar with them?
No.
It was pathetic.
This damned bundle of wool had taken over everyone - even Heket, for god's sake, was snickering along with the lamb whenever he gave a certain mushroom to a dissenter.
Shamura felt like the only sane one in this whole cult. They called them a skeptic, a heretic, even. Shamura felt like they were sitting in some kind of playpen, where everyone blindly listened to some sheep and lived a mundane life.
2 days and they were practically ready to dissent themself.
Frowning, Shamura wondered where exactly the lamb was now; it wasn't like he was patrolling around like usual - if you could even call it patrolling - it was more like a prance.
Their eyes all wandered over to the temple. The vine covered red builing, standing alone in the corner of the cult, surrounded by tabernacles and little flower patches they were certain Leshy found delight in.
Shamura shuffled along to the temple, peeking in through the huge double doors.
A-ha.
The lamb sat atop the alter, kicking his feet and chattering to some figure beside him. Shamura tiled their head, allowing a few eyes to peer in further.
A-ha again.
Narinder, the worst of all siblings they'd had, was standing next to the lamb, taking in his word like he was actually intrested.
A clever plan, Shamura thought. They knew Narinder, and they knew he must have some kind of plan to take that crown again and get them all out of this unholy hellscape.
Shamura watched eagerly as the lamb tugged on his robes as if to adjust them. Narinder moved forward, mumbling something and reaching for the collar.
'Yes!' Shamura thought, 'Now choke the thing and take him out.'
Narinder smoothed the lamb's robes and....
and......
All of Shamura's 8 eyes widened in such a horror you'd think they'd pop out of their head.
Narinder, their Narinder, gave the filthy lamb a kiss.
He kissed him.
In fact, they were still kissing.
Torn between killing themselves and turning blind eyes, Shamura went for a third option and burst through the door.
Narinder pulled away, coughing. The lamb fell off of the alter to the floor with a thud and a small, "Ow!"
"Shamura." Narinder began, arms behind his back.
"Narinder." They replied, watching the lamb pathetically pick himself up and give them a stupid wave. They thought of something, anything, to say, but nothing came.
Shamura exhaled, slowly. "I think...I would like to die. Very badly."
Before Narinder could reply, the lamb gasped. "I do need a sacrifice. Festivals are coming up and I'm too invested in Amdusias' drama with Eligos to kill them..." he mumbled, turning to Narinder.
Shamura's multiple eyes twitched. "I would rather be suffocated in my own web than be sacrificed by a lamb, let alone you." The lamb gasped again, this time in outrage. "Excuse me." he sneered, "You watch it, spider."
Shamura grimaced. "Narinder. Tell it to stop addressing me like that."
Narinder looked between the two, groaning. "Lamb may address you how he pleases.....he's the leader, or whatever..."
"You call it Lamb?" Shamura writhed in disgust.
The lamb chuckled. "He calls me worse than lamb, I'll tell ya that, hone-"
Narinder clamped a hand over the lamb's mouth, sighing.
"Things are different to how they once were." he said simply, embarrassed.
"You are fraternising with your own vessel-" "He's not my 'vessel'."
"Ohh, what is he then?" Shamura seethed, "A plaything?"
Narinder cringed. "Ah, well...."
A pause.
The lamb looked expectantly to him.
"He is....The lamb is my...husband."
Shamura felt a prescence behind them. Multiple followers were cued up in a patient line.
"Oh, come on in gang! Sermon time!" The lamb chirped, ignoring Shamura, who was stunned into silence as followers walked around them.
Leshy poked their shoulder. "You feel stiff." he said, tilting his head.
"Do not touch me."
"Oh! Shamura." he mumbled, spinning around to face the wall. "...so where's Heket?...."
Shamura, with a lack of anything better to do, walked deeper into the temple, face dull and void in sheer incomprehension that their brother was married to that...thing.
"What's wrong?" Kallamar asked from beside them, clutching some kind of crystal trinket.
"I have been made aware Narinder is....associating with it."
"Oh, lamb? Yeah they've been married for ages. I think you're the last to know.."
Shamura's hand gingerly touched their bandaged forehead.
"How is my mind no longer with me, but I still manage to lose it."

Just Kiss Already (Aitana Bonmati x Reader)
Little Christmas fic for anyone who needs a quick and short escape from holiday festivities. Wanted to try someone new. Thanks to @chaisreadingââ for the idea for this one. Happy Holidays to everyone!
After such a long flight to Portugal, you were praying that the first stop would be the hotel where you hoped to slip in a small power nap. You would kill for the comfort of a bed right now.Â
The team was scattered around the plane, some still sitting and others aimlessly wandering the small space before it was time to deplane. For the time being, you were more than content, staying in your seat, head on Aitana's shoulder as she scrolled through her phone.Â
It wasn't unusual for you two to be so close. The midfielder was actually one of the first people you had clicked with when you first joined the team a couple of years ago. Your teammates would joke constantly about you two being an old married couple, and you played into it every time.Â
After stepping off the plane, you stayed close to the Spanish midfielder, feeding off the calmness she was always giving off when away from the pitch. You made sure you were seated next to her on the bus, and even led her to the nearest couch as soon as you walked into the hotel.Â
The team waited patiently in the lobby of the hotel while room assignments were being passed out. You had been banking on getting to room with Aitana this trip, but you couldn't be too disappointed when you were paired with Keira.Â
Your best friend came up behind you with a set of keys, happy to have been roomed with you.Â
"Are you a little peeved that you didn't get to room with Aitana?" she nudged your shoulder lightly, her eyes alight with mischief as she watched your eyes following Lucy and Aitana to the elevator.Â
"It would have been nice, but now I get to hang out with you so I guess it all worked out." And it had. You'd been meaning to spend more time with your friend since she'd joined Barca, but there had been little time to do so.Â
"Have you thought about telling her?"
You turned to Keira confused, "What are you talking about?"
"Have you thought about telling Aitana you like her?"
You merely shrugged your shoulders, snatching the hotel keys from Keira and leading the two of you to the elevator.Â
Keira was the only one, well if Keira knew then Lucy probably knew too, but they were the only ones you had openly admitted your crush on Aitana to. Your best friend had actually picked up on it not too long after joining the team. So after a night out a few weeks into her transfer, you had rehashed your whole life story surrounding your harboring of a crush on the Spanish midfielder ever since you had first joined the club.Â
The redhead waited until the two of you were riding up the elevator to broach the subject once more.Â
"I'm just saying, she's really cute and I think you two would be really good together."
"You sure do bring Aitana up a lot. Are you sure you're not the one with a crush on her?" You smirked, seeing the blush on Keira's face.Â
"I'm happily taken," Keira said, but the damage had been done.Â
"No worries, I'll happily take Lucy off your hands," you laughed, watching your friend's eyes bug out at the suggestion.Â
"You wish you had a chance with Luce," Keira said, her eyes narrowed as if challenging you.Â
"I mean I think I could have a chance. She did follow me all the way to Barcelona," you teased. Since Lucy's signing was announced, you always joked that she only said yes to Barcelona because you were there. You always enjoyed pressing Keira's buttons by reminding her how well you and her girlfriend got along.Â
Redirecting the conversation away from your bromance with Lucy back to you and Aitana, Keira started in again. "Think about it. It would be so much fun. If you and Aitana were together then we could go on double dates together."
"Just say you're tired of third wheeling with me and Luce. I totally understand," you laughed.
Keira shoved you into the room with a roll of your eyes. Even though you'd been living in different countries for many years, she loved that the two of you were still so close enough to talk like this with one another.Â
****
While the day had gone by as normal, the constant stares your friends were sharing with one another let you know they were up to something. You just didn't know what, so instead you focused on the conversation Aitana was having with Mariona on the walk around the city.Â
Chaos began at breakfast the next morning. As a person who loved their sleep, you were always one of the last ones to breakfast and most of the time someone always had to wake you and make sure you didn't fall back asleep. And they had planned to use that to their advantage.Â
With Keira and Lucy at the helm of the mission, your teammates had plotted to get the two of you to finally admit you like one another. And seeing as the Christmas season was upon them, they thought mistletoe would be the best plan of action.Â
Seeing as Aitana was one of the few who could wake you without having to face your grouchy morning wrath, the younger woman had been tasked with making sure you made it to breakfast on time.Â
Their plan was for your joint entrance to be the perfect time to share your first kiss. Unbeknownst to them, the two of you had come down just a little earlier than they had planned for, which gave it all away.
Approaching the dining room, you noticed a group of players hovering around the entrance, inconspicuously tying something over the frame. It didn't take a genius to figure out what they were doing, so you decided to have a little fun with it.Â
"Ooo look, Frido and Ingrid are under a mistletoe," you called out as you approached them, nudging Aitana ahead of you. "That means they have to kiss!"
Everyone had been so distracted by the collective gasps of surprise from Mapi and her girlfriend that they didn't even notice the sly wink you sent over to Aitana.Â
Pina and Patri were next, and they had tried to catch the two of you at the team bonding session in Irene's room. They had sent the two of you downstairs to grab a few things while they got the mistletoe ready. Unfortunately for Pina and Patri, it backfired and the two girls ended up kissing one another.Â
It didn't stop there, but most of the other attempts were spoiled before they could even start.Â
On the last night before heading back to Barcelona, Keira had asked you to switch with Lucy and you were more than okay with that.Â
So here you were, high off a crushing win, sitting on the edge of the bathroom counter as Aitana got ready for bed.
"Are we going to keep pretending we don't know what they're trying to do," Aitana asked, putting her stuff down and stepping into the space between your legs.Â
"It's more fun this way, don't you think?" You asked, wrapping your legs around her waist so you could pull her closer.
Your girlfriend rolled her eyes, but she did have to agree. The lengths to which your teammates had gone to try to catch the two of you under a mistletoe was quite hilarious.Â
"Well, I'm just glad we don't have to pretend in here and I can kiss you whenever I want."
"I like the sound of that. Kiss away," you said, eagerly accepting the kiss she planted on your lips.Â
****
The next day, just before the game, your friends had concocted another plan to catch the two of you under the mistletoe. But with all of the previous failed attempts, they had planned a much more elaborate scheme.Â
After warmups, the team slowly began to make their way back to the locker room. They waited patiently for you to enter the room, one person in particular standing just under the entryway.Â
Before you could even get inside, you were stopped by Ana who had a few questions for you before the game.Â
"Hey, Y/N, look up," Mapi called from the other side of the room, her face giving away exactly what you were to find over your head.Â
You started stammering, looking for a way out, even sparing a glance to your girlfriend, who was already a little red in the face.Â
Just as Ana was leaning in, you felt a slight gust of wind as you felt the blonde being pushed to the side and Aitana grabbing your training top and pulling you forward until your lips landed on hers.Â
Never one to deny a kiss from your girlfriend, you let yourself relax into it, inching your body closer until it was pressed up against hers.Â
"Finally!" Keira cheered from the side. "We've been trying to get you two to kiss this whole time."
"Oh, we know," Aitana replied, her eyes still fully fixed on you. The jealous stare you had seen just before your lips met was now gone, but you loved the determined look on her face now even more.Â
"Is this when we tell them we've been dating for months now?" You smirked, leaning in for another quick peck before walking your girlfriend over to her locker.Â
"You've been what?!"

The Dragon Boat Festival or Duan Wu Jie (ç«Żćè), is also known as Duan Yang Jie (ç«Żéłè), which means âUpright Sunâ or âDouble Fifthâ (éć/éäș). Falling on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month around the summer solstice which happened to be 10th June 2024 this year. The festival is also commonly referred to as the Fifth Month Festival amongst the Chinese. Its origins can be traced to southern China, and festivities include boat races and eating rice dumplings. The festival had evolved from the practice of revering the river dragon, to the commemoration of Qu Yuan (ć±ć), a third-century poet and political figure of the state of Chu in ancient China.
Legends and Myths - River Dragon (èéŸ)
The dragon was initially viewed as the benevolent spirit of the waters. It exemplified the masculine principle or yang in the Chinese ideology of harmony. Among common folk, it was believed that the River Dragon (èéŸ) controlled the rain and was thus worshipped during the summer solstice. Requests would be made for a balanced rainfall â sufficient to ensure a good harvest, without over-abundance that would cause destructive flooding.
Legends and Myths - Qu Yuan (ć±ć)
Primitive worship of the river dragon was often practised during the summer solstice. The Dragon Boat Festival was associated with Qu Yuanâs story only in the second century. Qu Yuan (ć±ć) was a poet and a statesman for the Chu kingdom (æ„ćœ) during the Warring States Period (æćœæ¶ä»Ł). He served in high office and he advocated a policy of aligning with other kingdoms against the dominant Qin. However, political intrigue led Lord Huai to banish Qu Yuan instead. The ministry was left in the hands of corrupt statesmen and Qu Yuan helplessly watched his motherland decline. Depressed, he penned beautiful, patriotic poetry such as Li Sao (犻éȘ) which means Encountering Sorrow, an allegorical poem stating his political aspirations and Jiu Ge (äčæ) or Nine Songs, which gained Qu Yuan great renown.
youtube
With his top adviser gone, the king fell for the trickery of the Qin and his kingdom was eventually conquered. Upon hearing that his kingdomâs capital had been overtaken by the Qin, Qu Yuan committed suicide by drowning himself in the Mi Luo River (汚çœæ±). As he was adored by people everywhere, the local people did everything in their power to try to either save Qu Yuan, or at the very least, to protect him in the afterlife.
Hereupon the legend varies. Some suggest that fishermen at the scene attempted to save their minister. Having failed, they sought to appease his spirit by throwing rice stuffed in bamboo stems into the river to prevent the fish from eating Qu Yuanâs body. Others say that the rice offerings were snatched by a river dragon and the rice had to be bundled in chinaberry leaves instead and tied with five different coloured silk threads in order to be effective. The triangular Rice Dumplings (çČœć) thus became entwined with the festivities. Another version tells of farmers rowing out in dragon boats in their attempt to save Qu Yuan. Hence, Dragon Boat Racing (è”éŸè) has been held annually on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, in honour of the memory of Qu Yuan.
Or if reading through a wall of texts is not your cup of tea, here is a pictorial guide to summarize on the history of Qu Yuan (ć±ć) and how we ended up celebrating Dragon Boat Festival (ç«Żćè) with dragon boat racing and rice dumplings on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month.
All images are from the internet. Selected text info from here.

Sims In Bloom: Generation 1 Pt. 11 (Buttercup's Lament)
Soon after the Nesbitts returned to Henford, Hazel started grade school and Heather returned to Sherman Bagley High. For weeks Heather was sad and depressed but wouldnât talk about it, no matter how close she was to her parents and no matter how much they wanted to cheer her up. Eventually, Daisy figured out the reason after a visit to the Pancakes to check on Annette and Elizabeth, where Everett was flirting endlessly with Spencer Kim-Lewis, his new girlfriend.
Heather had long harboured a crush on her lifelong best friend, and his affection for their mutual close friend Spencer caught Heather off guard. She didnât want to lose either of them as friends, but she hated seeing them kiss and flirt in the hallways at school. She tried to pretend it bothered her far less than it did, claiming she was happier single and focusing on her skills. She still entered video game tournaments regularly and even placed third in a few, but this hardly earned enough for vet classes. She resolved to get even better.
One night she babysat for her siblings while her parents joined Bob and Annette for a double date at the Spice Festival in the city, but loner Bob came home early, always overwhelmed by crowds. He was a little bit drunk, sniffing the flowers in the laneway behind Cobblebottom Street, and whatever came over Heather would require years of therapy for her to unpack. At least she recognized it â but flirting with Everettâs sauced father was a low point for her. She was grateful no one witnessed it, and more grateful still when Bob woke up hungover with no memory of what Heather had said to him. Even Heather wanted to forget. Sheâd never make Everett see what he was missing through his own fatherâs eyes, and her naivete filled her with self-loathing.
Soon after, she made a point to talk things through with Spencer. Spencer liked Everett, Everett liked Spencer, and Heather cared about them both. Resolving to get over him once and for all, Heather threw herself into video game tournaments â she even finished second in one for Incredible Sports and made 450 simoleons. Even though she was outgoing and made friends easily, she was single and loved it, too. When she wasnât gaming, she was building plugins and practicing programming while teaching herself lab work on the vet station in the yard. The second vet station, to be exact, after Riverâs good friend Carlton Bell set the first one on fire in an experiment gone wrong.
The Nesbitts travelled to San Myshuno for a double celebration â attending Geekcon as a family and to celebrate Holly becoming a teenager. Holly was the only Nesbitt to get Daisyâs blonde hair, but she had Nealâs hazel eyes, just like brunette Heather. Holly was a generous soul, but she was spoiled. All the Nesbitt children were, but Neal and Daisy wouldnât apologize. Their kids worked hard, and they had a blast together in the city. After the festival ended, they wandered uptown to Myshuno Meadows to check out the observatory and disaster memorial garden. Heather remembered to get a photo of the skyline for Dylan Kraus, a school friend who worked as a grocery deliverer for Abby Goldbloom and dreamed of a world beyond Henford after high school. Dylan was also the new mayorâs daughter, and Susan Richey-Kraus thought the best place for Dylan was the town where she served as mayor. Dylan strongly disagreed.
Would Heather be able to get past her feelings for Everett and focus on other interests? ->
