Just Another One
Sequel to: ‘A Little Bit Of Honesty’
Corpse Husband x Actress!Reader (Female)
Warnings: Angst, Heartbreak, Mention of bad past relationships, Swearing
Genre: Angst, Romance, RPF (Real Person Fic)
Summary: They keep proving each other right in the most wrong ways possible. They each want to be guarded even if that means the other will be hurt. Maybe that’s what they want - to hurt one another because they’ve already hurt each other once before.
Requested by the lovely readers who enjoyed the previous fic ‘A Little Bit Of Honesty’. Sorry for the large time gap between the posting of the two fics but I still hope you guys will take the time to read it and if so I hope you enjoy it! Love you all with all my heart, Vy ❤
When you go out of your way to avoid leaving the house your options of entertainment are severely limited and you can’t blame anyone or anything but yourself for it. Today, I wouldn’t have gone out of my apartment even if I was one of those people who frequent the outdoors seeing as how the sky is trying to flood the Earth with all this nonstop rain. It does set a mood for a perfect night in but when you spend all your nights in doing the same thing over and over again, the atmosphere is practically meaningless. And so I ‘ve decided to resort to channel surfing as though I’ll find something interesting on TV that I haven’t yet seen on one of my social media timelines.
I pass several cooking channels on my journey, making a mental note of their individual numbers in case I don’t stumble across anything capable of better distracting me from my boredom and loneliness that’s slowly starting to creep in. I pass by a few movie channels showing teenage romcoms as if to celebrate the start of summer so you can imagine how quickly I moved on from those. Then come the celebrity channels which can often get a laugh out of me because of how pathetic and unbelievably ridiculous they are. And so, I stick around one where there’s a broadcast on a movie showing that’s happening tonight in LA. Oddly enough, despite my anxiety, going to a movie showing has always been on my list of things I’d want to do. This can be considered living vicariously or rubbing salt into the wound that I’ll probably never go because my anxiety and fear of being recognized is too severe. Either way I stick around to watch it.
And man do I regret it now looking at several different angels of a couple of actors entering the venue where they are to be photographed and asked questions by the mob of paparazzi that’s gathered due to the massive event. That in and of itself doesn’t sound - and really isn’t - so bad. However, it’s important to note that the actress in this duo is Y/N. Y/N L/N. My Y/N....shit, sorry, I mean my FRIEND Y/N, her arm linked with whatever-the-fuck-his-name-is who is holding an umbrella above the both of them, shielding them from the downpour of rain that is also taking place in LA apparently.
“The two were seen entering the venue earlier this evening, looking particularly cozy in each other’s presence if I do say so myself. The rain probably worked nicely in their favor.“ The first reporter says, her teasing tone of voice sending chills of anger down my spine as I glare at the screen, hands balled in fists, jaw clenched - all my body’s instinctive reactions to what is being shown to me. I know I technically have no right to behave or feel this way, in fact I should be fucking happy for Y/N and her successful career and the progress in her love life. But damn it how can I?! I was so damn close to kissing this girl! I was so fucking close to falling in another trap, tripping and landing in the embrace of another liar and user, another girl who switches partners more often than shoes. How could I’ve been so reckless to get so close to her even platonically? How did we become close enough for me to 1) show her my face; 2) start inviting her over to my apartment regularly; and how didn’t I notice the kind of messed up person she was all that time.
She was all sweet and flirting and shit a week or so ago and now she’s doing the exact same thing with him! The cameras are capturing them perfectly: every laugh, every exchange of a knowing look or nod, ever smack to his arm when he tells a joke. But what bothers me most is the many times he’s wrapped his arm around her to pull her closer. Not just for pictures, but just because the fucker felt like it! And Y/N doesn’t seem to mind it at all. 
“They have been the talk of the town recently, so while they could just be adding fuel to the fire, they could also have been caught by the flame and ‘caught feelings’ as they say. Regardless these two are a view we’d like to see more often.“ The other reporter says and that’s the final straw.
In one swift motion I turn the TV off and throw the remote across the room. It hits the wall and falls to the ground in several pieces, broken by the force of the impact. Just like I am broken by the force of the impact of these news. I don’t know which is worse: the fact that I fell for her and almost let her know it; the fact that she’s just another member of the club I don’t want anywhere near my life; or the fact that I can’t believe it.
Yeah that’s right - one foolish part of me refuses to believe that’s she’d do such a thing. I think that’s the same part which is still in awe of her so you can bet I ignore that part the majority of the time.
She is just another one. Not the one. Having been hurt before doesn’t mean she won’t hurt me or anyone else she’s gonna be with. Hurt people hurt people.
And damn has she hurt me, probably without knowing a damn thing. How selfish can you be, Y/N? How selfish can you really get? And how much am I going to allow you to hurt me?
                                                             *  *  *
“Thank you so much, Andrew. I would’ve died on the spot of anxiety if I was on my own.“ I say to my best friend who is currently sitting next to me on a park bench, in a tux, eating a cheeseburger. I too am still in my gown and am also gorging on a cheeseburger of my own.
“Don’t mention it. Us anxious people need to stick together.“ He bumps his shoulder against mine, stealing a small genuine smile from me, “Plus I couldn’t not come with you. You know how much I like a good rumor.“
I scoff, “Of course you do, but then again there was no need to add to what the media has already made a whole-ass ship out of.” I roll my eyes and take another bite. My appetite hasn’t been in its best condition so I’m only eating this under Andrew’s orders. I have no idea how people can ship us romantically, he’s the definition of an older - and very bossy - brother to me. I wish I could tell each and every single one of those girls who hate me because I’ve ‘stolen their man’ that I’d most likely be their sister in law rather than man snatcher, seeing as how my relationship with Andrew is so sibling-like.
That’s because we’re too alike, no one gets that. People play the ‘opposites attract’ car more often than I consider rational. But  then again when they see a couple like Andrew and I - who are basically the same person in different bodies - they suddenly think we’re super compatible. Trust me, we’re not. And everyone who’s been on set with us will tell you the same.
“What can I say...“ he shrugs, smirking at me, “I like the fun. I bet Becca doesn’t though.“
I can’t help but huff. Andrew is the only one I’ve ever openly expressed my frustrations with Rebecca to. He was super helpful on the subject, seeing as how he can relate - many partners of his have tried to use him, some of which even succeeded. He’s more than qualified to school me on the topic but it turned more into sharing bad experiences. One of which was that instance back at Corpse’s apartment.
“And neither does Corpse I suppose.“ As though he’s read my mind, he pokes the hurt spot, pouring salt in the wound causing me to visibly cringe as though the pain was physical - because it was, I felt it in my chest and in my gut, a sharp stab of guilt and regret. 
Why did I let it come to that? Why did I let us get so close? How did I not think of the consequences?
“I don’t care if he does or doesn’t.“ My hand automatically reaches for the pocket of the jeans I’m not even wearing in search of a cigarette. Not that I’d be able to light one even if I had them on me - Andrew would smack it out of my hand before I could even take a single puff.
He has the audacity to laugh, “You’re such a bad liar, Y/N.”
That’s all he needs to say really - that’s enough to make me feel seen and understood. Though that’s not always a good thing. I often times wish he couldn’t read me so well. Better said: I wish I didn’t let myself be so readable, you know. I’m just glad he’s the one who sees me because if it were anyone else they’d use this vulnerability of mine against me. I’m well aware that it’s a weakness, a really inconvenient one, but damn it I can’t get rid of it. I feel like I’ll be less human if I lose it. Everyone’s allowed to be vulnerable, some just are lucky enough to choose who they’ll be vulnerable around. I’m lucky enough to to have a choice, not so lucky in the people I choose to trust. Guess that’s not a luck thing, it’s just my inability to decipher whether a person is worth all the pain and torture of coming clean to them or not. So far many people have burnt me but two stick out in particular - Becca and Corpse. Corpse especially, which is the odd thing considering he hasn’t even wronged me in any way. At least not yet.
“Your phone’s vibrating.“ Andrew says, pulling me out of my overflowing head when he hands me my phone which I handed to him because of my dress’ lack of pockets.
“Thanks.“ I mutter through a sigh as I take it from him, checking the notification I’ve gotten.
My stomach drops: it’s a message from Corpse.
“Hey I saw you are in LA but we have a stream tomorrow, will you still be participating?“
Before I can reply, he sends me another message.
“I know you’re probably very busy but we get the most viewership on the streams when you’re in them so....“
I’ve probably been staring at my phone screen for longer than I thought since Andrew felt the need to make sure I was still breathing: “Hey, you ok? You look terribly pale.” I can barely hear him let alone reply. I can’t hear my own thoughts to know what to reply to him. “Y/N, you’re scaring me.”
I’m scaring myself too, Andrew. I’m scared too. I’m scared of how broken my picker has become. I almost kissed this guy! I almost entrusted all my thoughts, hopes, wishes and goals to him! What the fuck was I thinking?! Well, at least I know what he was thinking about - viewership. Likes, subs, views, publicity. The more eyes on the stream the better for him and everyone else. I genuinely want to applaud him, no one has been so direct about using me before. I was in a relationship with Becca for almost a year before I accidentally found out what she had been doing the whole time. No one’s ever smacked me in the face with this much honesty. It’s bittersweet really.
I want to laugh, I want to cry, slap myself across the face, slap him...I want to do so much, but all I can do now is sit in silence and think of how I could be so stupid.
He’s just another one, how did I not see that? How do I never see it until it’s too late? Why is one part of me still screaming: ‘He didn’t mean it like that!’
AND WHY THE FUCK DO I WANT TO BELIEVE IT?

Split of Twin Flowers
After being rescued from the realm of darkness, Aria seeks a way to give Ves a chance at living her own life, while also continuing to survive in her own right. Aqua brings her to the scientists at Radiant Garden to see if they have a solution, and for Aria to explain her situation, but the only option available may carry some worrying implications.. (3937 words)
Takes place after the ending of KH3. Content warning for mentions of battle scars, talk of a character being possessed, an event comparable to an exorcism (it’s kind of hard to explain in non-series-specific terms, sorry), and rather a lot of self-insert-focused exposition.
(Comments on and reblogs of my work are always okay, and appreciated, but are by no means required. I recommend reading this piece on the original document, but if that doesn't work, a transcript has been copied and pasted under the readmore.)

This is a piece I have been working on for a long time, and am very proud of, so I really appreciate anyone who takes the time to read it. I hope it isn’t quite as heavy as the content warnings may possibly indicate. I’m also using it as my post for the twenty-ninth day of sapphic September; there’s just one more to go!
Document transcript:
The door to the laboratory opened halfway, and a young woman tentatively poked her head around it. Upon seeing that she was not interrupting anything, she smiled and emerged more properly, brushing a lock of blue hair from her face.
“Oh, Master Aqua!” The lone scientist in the room smiled warmly as he noticed her. “Thank you for coming. I’m glad to see you’re alright.”
“Thank you, Ienzo.” Aqua replied, even if she did still in fact look rather tired. The long battle to defeat Master Xehanort and the true Organisation still felt fresh in her mind, and although it was a fight that the light had eventually won, it had still taken quite a toll on her. Not only that, but she hadn’t had the same chance to rest as the others - though thoughts of locating Sora still weighed on everyone’s minds, Aqua had been more concerned with finding a way back into the realm of darkness in order to rescue Aria, her partner who she had so unwillingly abandoned..
Now that Aria was finally free as well, Aqua could let herself relax a bit more, and with that lowering of her guard came much contemplation of everything she had gone through.
“Um.. Master Aqua?”
“Ah!”
She’d been staring off into space again, judging by Ienzo’s worried expression half-visible under his hair.
“Is everything alright?”
“Yes, don’t worry!” she replied, slightly embarrassed at her lapse in concentration. The young scientist did not look entirely convinced, but he seemed content enough to continue.
“I’m the only one here at the moment, but I should still be able to help with what we talked about over the Gummiphone. Did you happen to bring Aria with you?”
At this, the half-open door Aqua had come through continued to swing open as if of its own accord, only to reveal another young woman entering the laboratory with a somewhat nervous expression. She had clearly been through a lot, and the realm of darkness she had reportedly been trapped in for aeons had definitely left its mark on her; several large patches of darkness could be seen spanning her face and body, with one reaching down her left eye like a melting wound.
“Yes, I’m here..”
Her catlike eyes flickered nervously around the room, and it soon became apparent that what Ienzo had thought was a cape were in fact a pair of black feathered wings, both subconsciously curling around her shoulders. It was only upon recognising that Ienzo was the only one present, and that his initial reaction to seeing her was not as negative as she was expecting, that she was able to relax slightly and explain herself from behind a now-steeled facade.
“My name is Aria.” she said, looking up at the scientist from under her messy blonde hair. “Aqua said you might be able to help me achieve something. Has she already.. told you about, well-”
“We’ve already spoken a little bit using the Gummiphone I was given before, but he said it was best for us to come and talk in person to try and get everything clear.” Aqua stepped in after sensing Aria’s hesitation and took her hand to support her partner. “It’s alright - you can trust him,” she whispered close to her ear.
Trusting only in her love’s reassurance, Aria started to explain her intentions to Ienzo, who seemed content to listen even considering the clear presence of darkness she had; this silent gesture of tolerance was greatly appreciated. She appeared hesitant to reveal much of her true nature as a Heartless, but she did what she could to inquire whether the young scientist knew any way for a heart to be released from its current body and inhabit a different one, allowing the dormant self within the original body to reawaken. Unfortunately, Ienzo remained pensive, even after she had said her part.
“So, you’re looking for a way for a heart to enter a new body? I’m sorry, but.. I’m not sure we’ll be able to help you. Any of the resources we could have used - which is to say, the replicas, they would have been perfect for this - were taken by Roxas, Xion, and Naminé’s hearts.”
“Oh. So, there is nothing you can do?” Aria persisted, but Ienzo shook his head.
Then came a flash of hesitant inspiration.
“Unless..” He trailed off and turned to look down one of the corridors leading away from the main lab space. “Could you two come with me, please?”
“Of course!” said Aqua brightly, as Aria nodded in assent.
==========
The three left the main hub of the laboratory to walk down the corridor, which felt as though it was turning downwards into a basement level of sorts. Once there, they came to a tall door which Ienzo unlocked with some sort of biometric scanner, and this opened out into yet another laboratory space with a similar layout to the first - however, this one seemed in a less presentable condition than the other, and its lack of windows seemed to be what was giving it a more foreboding presence. There was a distinct sense that something bad had happened here, once upon a time.
“After you and the other Guardians of Light helped to defeat Master Xehanort,” Ienzo was saying to Aqua, “we went back to the Keyblade Graveyard to see if there was anything to salvage from the battlefield, and we were able to bring this back with us.”
He gestured to a container at the far wall, in which the two Keyblade wielders could now see a strange white figure suspended inside, resembling a featureless mannequin. It appeared to be dressed in some kind of dark robes, of a dull purple colour inlaid with sharp red motifs, worn over pieces of tarnished metal armour. A number of scuffs and dents littered the otherwise-smooth surface, and Aria could sense traces of a dark presence seeping from the container, despite the blank nature of the figure itself.
“What is this..?”
“This is one of the replicas that Even created, back when he was still Vexen, and a member of the first Organisation.” Ienzo explained. “The first twelve were prototypes, initially abandoned as failures, since they were made before his assistant provided the data needed to perfect them, but.. From what I understand, the real Organisation - which Vexen was also a part of at the beginning - repurposed those twelve into vessels for Xehanort’s heart, as backups in case the people they brought through time fell in battle again.”
“That’s right, I remember fighting these now.” muttered Aqua. “But, didn’t they fuse into one form, eventually?”
“That’s what I thought, too, from your accounts of the situation.” replied the scientist. “I’m not sure if Sora defeating the replicas in battle made them all separate out again, since they weren’t really designed to be fused, or if this one was already too damaged to combine with the others in the first place. Regardless, it was the only one we recovered.”
He now turned to face the blank figure with a concerned expression. “We’ve been running some experiments to see whether it can be repurposed for anything, but.. There’s a lot of darkness still lingering within it, so it wouldn’t be safe for a heart of light to inhabit without risking it also being afflicted by that darkness. And we haven’t found a good way of destroying that darkness without compromising the replica, either.”
“I could sense the dark power when I saw it, so corruption would seem a likely outcome.” Aria mused. “This would also be darkness from Xehanort, so.. it isn’t that surprising that some part of it stuck around. Persistence did seem to be his only worthwhile trait.”
She had crossed her arms in contempt at this last part, but seemed satisfied enough to relax after studying the replica further. “It shouldn’t matter any more than he did in the long run, though.”
“Hmm..” Aqua seemed concerned about the prospect, but was trying to keep an open mind. “What do you make of it, Aria?”
“Well..” She took a moment to examine the figure with an unchanging expression. “The replica body itself has sustained some damage from the fight, but I don’t see why that would affect my ability to inhabit it - it’s just possible that those injuries would reflect in my new appearance, which is.. nothing I’m not accustomed to. And, if the heart within a replica determines its appearance, then maybe what’s left of my heart - or, I suppose, the heart that I once was - would be able to smooth over those gaps. Though, if it’s the latter, that could mean my appearance ends up changing, which.. is not what I want.”
Aqua tentatively nodded, but Ienzo seemed more visibly confused.
“I’m sorry to interject, but- what do you mean by “the heart that you once were”? You’re saying that that’s different to your heart, somehow?”
“..In a sense, yes. How do I explain this..?” There was a slight pause as Aria tried to gather her thoughts, and it was clear she was still trying to think by the hesitant nature of her words that followed. She had seen right through to the heart of the man standing before her, which glowed with a newly-restored lustre. It was a heart that sought to help people, and sought knowledge in order to do that, though there were visible flickers of a long-seated regret present as well. Still, it was a heart that she judged would not judge her, so she decided to provide it with the truth she hoped would sate it.
“Though I look mostly human to you, this- isn’t technically my body, however much I treated it as such. If I were to let go of this vessel, or be driven out from her, you would see me as I really am - a Heartless, a flowering thing. However, Heartless are created when a heart is consumed by darkness, so.. surely the appearance I would take if I were to possess a blank replica would be that of the person this heart - my heart - used to belong to. Only, I don’t- I don’t really see myself as him, or as Ves. I am different, I am my own- well, person, if I can even call myself that. Yet, when I imagine my appearance outside of this vessel, I can only see myself as a Heartless. Does that make any sense?”
“I think I follow..” the scientist mumbled, though his still-furrowed brow seemed to indicate otherwise. “So, you kept your memories of who you were, even after turning into a Heartless? Kairi had implied that the same thing happened to Sora, but.. I’d just attributed that to him turning the Keyblade of heart on himself to free her, so it wouldn’t have happened to anyone else.”
This claim caused Aria to shake her head. “To my knowledge, the method is irrelevant; what matters is the intention. The more willingly a person opens their heart to the darkness, the more of their mind they keep when their heart is consumed, and they become a Heartless. I believe this is what happened with Ansem, though he actively sought after darkness so strongly that he retained a human appearance as well as mind. The emblem on his chest was the only way an onlooker could tell his true nature. When it comes to my original self, he was a Keyblade wielder, very similar to what I know of Sora, but… though he certainly did not willingly or deliberately let his heart be consumed, he was able to accept his fate in his final moments, and that is what allowed the Heartless formed at his demise - so, in other words, me - to retain some semblance of mind and self. Just.. not as much of it.”
“Oh. Yes, I think that makes more sense now. Thank you for the clarification.” said Ienzo. He was writing something furiously in a book that seemed to appear out of nowhere, then became startled when he realised his blunder. In an instant, he opened his mouth to ask something, but closed it with relief when Aria’s expression reassured him she did not mind him making notes about her.
It was Aqua’s turn to speak up now. “It’s so interesting to hear about this from you, Aria - but, I can’t say I’ve seen that kind of behaviour in any of the Heartless I’ve fought before. Had you noticed it at any point while we were in the realm of darkness?”
“Not that I can recall.” she replied. “It isn't exactly that common of an occurrence, considering most people’s disdain for the darkness. And, not only that, but..” She turned away from the other two here, and her next words came much more reluctantly again.
“Before I took over Ves, I remember feeling that I was losing myself - all I was driven by was this desire to be complete again, to be human again, but that was fading away over time. Then, when I found her, I didn’t necessarily feel more human, but what sense of humanity I did have was no longer fading away. So, if I hadn’t found her or someone like her in time, I probably would have lost my sense of self completely, and become just as mindless as most other Heartless are. It’s only thanks to the type of Heartless I became that I was even able to possess her in the first place, and.. I didn’t start to truly feel more like a person until I met other Keyblade wielders, and they interacted with me.”
“I see, I see.. So you’re saying that, in those Heartless that retain a sense of who they were before becoming Heartless, the remnants of normal heart behaviour - of humanity, if you will - have to be nurtured by others in order to be sustained, and will just be lost to the darkness if not actively encouraged?”
“Yes.”
Ienzo paused to finish hastily scribbling this knowledge down in his notebook, then lifted his head in realisation once he had had some time to think. “I think I might remember something of that from the old Organisation, actually.. Though, the memory is very hazy..”
To stop his mind from wandering as it wanted to, he returned to address the matter at hand.
“From what you’ve said, Aria, it does sound like you’d be able to make use of this replica - and you may well be the only one who could. I don’t think there’s any other solution here for you, and.. I say there’s no better way to find out than by experimenting. Give me a moment to get everything ready, and then we’ll be set to see if it works!”
Aria nodded, content with the proposal, but Aqua reached out to take her hand with a worried expression.
“Aria, are you sure you want to do this..?”
“Of course I am, Aqua. This is why I came here.” she replied. Then she hesitated again. “..Why, is there something wrong?”
“Well, no, it’s just-” Aqua took a moment to settle her whirling thoughts, holding both of Aria’s hands in her own now. “I don’t know what’s going to happen when I use my Keyblade on you. I don’t want to hurt you, or even destroy you. And, if something happened with the darkness infecting the replica, then..”
Aria couldn’t bring herself to meet Aqua’s gaze, but it was clear she appreciated the consideration, and did her best to reassure her love. “If I could leave of my own accord, I would have done so by now, but.. we’ve become too intertwined for me to do that myself. And Ves is not quite strong enough to drive me out from within - it’s enough of an effort for her to stay existing in the first place. So.. an outside force seems to be the only way to separate us. And there isn’t anyone I’d trust to wield that force, other than you.”
Despite herself, Aqua couldn’t help but smile at the last admission, and she felt her normal confidence returning. “..Alright then. If you’re sure about this, then.. I’m happy to be able to help.”
The two embraced for a moment, then there was a pause of silence as Aria took a few steps back to stand in the middle of the room. Once Ienzo had brought the replica out of its container, he carried it around to the other end of the laboratory, closer to the other two. Aqua summoned her Brightcrest Keyblade, then slowly raised its tip to be level with the X on Aria’s outfit. She took a deep breath, then pointed the Keyblade directly at her partner, echoing the movement used to open the paths to new worlds.
Aria instinctively flinched when a thin beam of bright light shot forward from the tip of Aqua’s Keyblade, striking her directly in the chest. She was then forced down into a kneel as an aura of pink-tinted darkness began to escape from her body. Her expression was grim, as if she was in pain, but Aqua caught sight of a hint of a smile before the darkness now emanating much more rapidly from her form started rising up to create something above her. It almost completely engulfed her body as if to pull it upwards too, seeming particularly concentrated around her head and wings, before disconnecting entirely to drop a drained figure to the floor. This left a dense collection of dark pink wisps, amalgamating in the air.
Ienzo was now well off to the side, looking rather alarmed, but his expression was replaced with complete surprise when the amorphous cluster of darkness coalesced, giving way to what looked like a floating mass of pink petals. Eventually, it turned around to reveal a large jagged mouth and piercing yellow eyes, staring with an expression he found difficult to interpret. The Heartless stayed floating in place for a moment, as if disoriented, then suddenly appeared to notice Aqua, staring at her curiously.
“Aria..?”
Her tentative call was clearly recognised by the flowering monster, which began to float cautiously towards her. She still had her Keyblade summoned, and her hand was trembling ever-so-slightly - whether with nervousness, uncertainty, or something else entirely, it was impossible to tell. Then, Ienzo stepped between the two and lifted up the replica body, hoping that Aria still remembered the plan.
“Here!”
It seemed the Heartless remained aware, as she moved forwards more purposefully after this, and collided directly with the empty vessel’s centre. A few petals scattered from the force, but it took only a few moments for the Heartless’ form to disappear entirely, appearing to be absorbed into the replica body. This caused another aura of darkness to manifest, enveloping the blank surface of the replica and making Ienzo recoil from the body - but it caught itself as it fell from his grasp to end up kneeling on all fours. A few more moments passed, as the darkness engulfed the entire body in a shell, before gradually dissipating after a few gold sparks were seen being forced out of the system.
The figure that stood up was slightly smaller than the replica had looked in the container, with catlike ears now poking upwards from a fluffy head of golden blonde hair. As she lifted her head, a cluster of cute freckles were seen scattered across her face, though in what Aqua thought was a slightly different arrangement than before. There were other little differences here and there, as well - the shape of her face, the way her hair fell at the back, how she stood dressed in the unfamiliar clothes from the replica in the middle of the silent laboratory.
But all of Aqua’s worries disappeared when the girl standing before her opened her eyes. Neither the bright, empty yellow of the lesser, mindless Heartless, nor a piercing orange like the seeker of darkness, nor even the harsh cold shade between the two that Aria’s eyes had been before, but a warm and resolute amber was the colour that met Aqua’s gaze, and regarded her with a renewed sense of gratitude and love.
“Aria!”
The Keyblade Master ran across the room towards her partner and nearly knocked her over with the energy of her emotions. Aria was nervous, but comfortably allowed herself to melt into Aqua’s embrace, now able to feel the connection between the pair even more strongly than before. Something felt so much more tangible about her presence now, and the relief coursing through her new body was enough to bring tears to her eyes.
“Aqua, it really worked..!” she smiled, speaking in a quiet voice filled with gratitude.
“I’m so glad you’re alright!” exclaimed Aqua, who also had a few tears in her eyes. “How do you feel? Is everything okay?”
“Yes, it’s all fine, I promise.” she asserted. “The replica’s darkness was not organised; it was just remnants that my presence has removed. I feel.. different, but in the best possible way. I could never have done this without you here with me - thank you, so much, for being here..”
She trailed off, still smiling at her partner, and another wonderful moment came and went. Then, a movement from behind Aqua caused Aria’s expression to take on a slightly fearful quality, and she turned her head to see what was happening. The cause of this movement was the figure left behind when Aqua set Aria free, who was slowly trying to get to her feet, her heart’s light flickering nervously. A bright green eye could be seen darting anxiously around the room from under her hair, but she was too weak to properly move, and quickly fell back to the ground again. Ienzo stepped in to support her, and his assistance was clearly welcomed as she was just about able to stand.
“Please take her somewhere she can recover.” Aria requested hurriedly. “After everything I put her through, she needs every opportunity she can to rest and adjust to being herself again..”
“Don’t worry. We have good facilities here.” Ienzo assured her. “Everything will be fine.”
This did little to ease Aria’s guilt, but the gesture was nevertheless appreciated. “Thank you, Ienzo.”
The scientist nodded, and then slowly helped the girl walk to the corridor. She appeared to be very shaken, and was glancing at everything with apprehension and unfamiliarity, but as she turned the corner of the corridor, she looked back at the couple still standing side-by-side, and met the eyes of both her saviour and her prison.
(For all that you have done to me, I know why you do not deserve forgiveness.
But, this is not the first time we have seen each other face-to-face since that day, thanks to that mirror you found in the darkness.
And ever since that moment, you have sought a way to free yourself from me. To let me live the life you once denied me. To break the hold that any other being you’d call your kind would do everything to strengthen.
You calculated the risks, but you still took them - the risk you would lose everything and the one person you cared for, for the sake of me getting to “get rid of you”.
So, who am I to judge a person - the person you have become - by the actions of the creature you once were..?)
A ghost of a smile flickered over her face, and the long-held vessel finally free again spoke of her own accord for the first time since the age of ancient fairytales.
“Thank you, Aria..”

A Temporary Parting
So my friends decided to do nice things for me and I have decided to do nice things back. I will be doing these for 6 characters and this is the first character; Remi. Let’s gooooo.
Mum, I’m sorry for how this starts off. I promise it gets fluffier later okay? @alyssoujo​
Tumblr media
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- How long had it been since she’d left him? Since God had so cruelly torn his beloved away from him? Lucifer still remembered it clearly as if it had happened yesterday. He remembered it often. He would replay it over and over until she returned. He had been in his office, working away at the latest stack of paperwork dropped onto him. With Barbatos gone, he and Diavolo were having to cover for him as well and so, their normal paperwork was doubled. He had been frustrated and irritated for at least 3 days now. Not primarily because of work but because he had an argument with Remi. Yes, they’ve bickered before but it was just that; bickering. Never had she raised her voice with him like that. Through their pact, he knew she had regretted it almost immediately but not once did she call in the 3 days that had followed. He hadn’t reached out to her for the first few hours, thinking they both needed time to cool off so they could talk about what had just happened and reconcile but a message never came from her. He sent her so very many but she didn’t even see them. He grew frustrated, thinking she was ignoring him still due to their argument and stopped texting and attempting to call her after a while of being ignored. He just concluded that when she’d had enough of ignoring him, she’d call him. Yet that never came. It had been 3 days and not so much as a peep from her. She hadn’t even been online in the past 3 days. This made Lucifer worried but, of course, he was basically bound to his desk until he finished working. That’s part of what had been frustrating him; his inability to check up on his wife and see if she was alright. To be able to see for himself that she was just ignoring him longer than usual because he had been insensitive towards her two male friends.  Seems he need not wait any longer. He could feel a tug, a very strong one, pulling on the back of his right hand, where his pact mark with Remi rested. ‘Finally...’ He thought to himself with a soft sigh before responding to the summon, expecting to be hugged by his wife or something of the sort but what greeted him made his entire world come crashing down. He was in a dark room he didn’t recognize, far from Paris as far as he could tell. When he first appeared, Lucifer’s thoughts were ‘Why would she come to a place like this?’ His question was answered all too soon as the moment he looked in front of him, he was greeted by the dying form of his wife.  “REMI!”  Panicked took ahold of him as he picked up her bloodied form, cradling her in his arms. He muttered every healing spell he knew, anything that could keep his wife from leaving him. She was sickly pale, a hole in the middle of her chest as though someone had ripped something out, and had been soaking in a pool of her own blood. “H-Hang on...! You will be fine...!” His voice broke as he said this but he didn’t care. All he cared about was making sure she would see the light of day. That his light wouldn’t leave his side. Why was she here? Who did this? All these questions ran through his head but were brought to a halt when he felt his wife’s cold hand on his cheek.  “Luci...fer... It’s... too late...” Came her weak voice and his eyes widened as he heard her words. Why didn’t he check sooner? Why didn’t he keep trying to reach out to her? He could’ve gone to Paris to visit her. He should’ve gone to talk to her. “I... am sor...ry... I...” She was struggling just to speak and Lucifer shook his head, letting the tears fall as he gently brought her head up to press his forehead against hers. “Shhh... I should be the one who’s sorry... I should have come to check on you... I should have come to you...” He mumbled as the tears kept falling. Remi weakly tried to wipe them away as she shook her head to the best of her abilities. “I... should ha...ve... summon...ed... y-you... sooner...” She got out weakly and with every breath she took, Lucifer could feel more life leave her. She was dying in his arms and he was helpless just as he had been the past 3 times. She was slipping out of his grasp and he couldn’t do anything. He was too late to save the woman he loved above all else. The woman who became his world. “Remi please... D-Don’t leave me too... Please...” He was begging. He wouldn’t do this but if it meant she lived, he would beg anyone, even his Father he despised above all else. He couldn’t lose her too. He couldn’t lose her like he had lost Lilith.  “I-I’m... sorry... about... our argu...ment... I-I was... too harsh... I-I had... so much... to tell... you...” She too was crying now as her death approached her. “P-Please... G-Grant this one wish... of mine...” She said weakly as Lucifer looked at her desperately. The tears wouldn’t stop it no matter how much he wanted them to and once again he found himself cursing his pride. Had he just reached out to her when he felt her regret and sorrow, perhaps this could have been avoided. “What... What is it dearest wife...?” He got out weakly. “P-Please... F-Find me again... I-I know... i-it is sel...fish... b-but... p-please... wait for... me... a-and f-find me... l-like you promised...” She said, whimpering quietly as more tears flowed down her cheeks. “Of course... You forget who you have for a husband... You are mine for all eternity, just as I am yours... So no matter how long it takes, I will find you once again... I will find you as many times as needed... We shall be together in every life given to you...” He said softly, placing her hand against his cheek.  She gave him a weak yet fond smile as she weakly caressed his cheek. He leaned into her cold touch. “Thank.. you... I love you...” She said, barely above a whisper before she fell limp. It took him a moment to register that she had truly left him. However... “This is just a temporary parting... I will ensure it...” He said softly as he held her lifeless body in his arms. He had remained like this for a while until Diavolo had appeared behind him. Upon seeing his friend grieving like this, the prince’s heart broke. “Lucifer...” “I am fine Diavolo.” He said as he stood up with Remi in his arms. Even in death, she looked serene and beautiful to him. Even if she had been torn away from him in this life, he’d ensure no one could do so in the next. 
He sighed, opening his eyes. He remembered the concerned looks his brothers had given him. He remembered throwing himself into work. Even if he knew she would return somehow, it still hurt. There was still a hole in his heart. He still felt incomplete. He would read her letters. He would look at the small figurine she had gotten him. Listen to the song she’d made for him. Everything she’d given him, he would look over because they were little parts of her he still had with himself.  Of course, he hadn’t forgotten the promise he’d made with her. He’d spent the last 600 years searching for her but to no avail. What was Father doing with her soul for the past 600 years? Keeping it hostage? He let out a frustrated sigh and hid his face in his hands. He needed tea. He needed to calm down so he could focus on work again. However, before he could even get up to brew the tea, the doors to his office burst open to reveal everyone’s favorite neighborhood angel; Simeon. 
Lucifer pulled his face out of his hands and normally would have glared at him for barging in like this but he noticed the urgent look on his face. He raised a brow in a questioning manner and the angel just took a moment to catch his breath. “I... I have something. For you.” Simeon got out in between his many pants. Lucifer didn’t quite understand what could warrant this reaction out of the normally calm and collected Simeon but he nodded and gestured for Simeon to bring whatever it was he had found. Simeon gestured for a Little D to come in and Lucifer’s eyes widened. “Is that...” “A bouquet of blue roses? Yes. Someone left it at the Angel’s Halo along with a letter addressed to you.” Simeon said as he searched through his pockets before pulling out a baby blue envelope from his pocket.
Lucifer swiftly took the letter but was very careful in opening it. The first thing he saw had almost made him feel as though his breath had been caught in his throat. It was a picture. A picture of a young woman smiling with a bouquet of blue and red roses. Straight black hair, unlike her previously half and half black on the left and white on the right hair, and straight bangs. It was still waist length, just less wavy. Her skin tone was more towards porcelain now than pale ivory but the one thing that hadn’t been altered about her, left untouched completely, were her eyes. Her striking blue eyes he remembered peering into only to see love and adoration for himself. The eyes that would shine whenever they saw him. The eyes that belonged to his wife. 
There were various pictures like this. About 10. Whoever took the pictures seems close with her. He then pulled out the letter and opened it to read the contents of it. The letter read;
“Hello Lucifer,
It has been 600 years since you’ve seen the lovely young lady in the picture, yes? Well~ She was finally reborn~ She’s a lovely young demon born in Canada. I made sure her parents named her Remi so you don’t have to get used to another name. You would think that being reborn would mean she has no memories of her past life and yet your influence has not left her in the slightest.
Every birthday she has had the past... what? 121 years now? she has only asked for one thing; blue roses. The gift you got her on her birthday all those years ago. I am certain if you go check, those are blooming again. Each and every blue rose she has received, she cherishes with her life until it wilts. She is also very fond of the color red and the color blue. Hm... I wonder why? She’s also very fond of making spicy food and warm desserts despite not liking them. Once again, I wonder why? Oh! And also, she has turned down everyone that’s ever tried to hit on her. She threatens them with a description of a man that matches yours. When I asked her where she got it from, she said she dreamt of this person and even if she was not sure whether or not he was real, the love she saw in this person’s eyes made her feel whole and so if needed, she’d spend her entire life looking for him. She’ll only accept you.
Anyways. You are probably curious as to why you haven’t bee able to find her if she’s been alive for 121 years now. Well, that would be because of your Father. Well, more Michael really. He has made sure every time you’ve come across her, she didn’t see you and you didn’t see her. I really don’t understand why but it is what it is.
I, however, do no take orders from Michael so while he is kept busy, I am ensuring you find Remi. Her memories are not gone. God did not keep her soul for 479 years for no reason. She spent all that time bargaining to keep her memories. To be born anything but a human so she would not have to leave your side again. After much insistence, He allowed it on the condition that she would only remember once reunited with you. Apparently Michael had a problem with that. Since I’m the one doing it though, he can suck it because he can’t punish me. 
She is currently visiting England, London to be specific, the last picture I sent is proof of that. That’s why I sent the bouquet of blue roses to Simeon with this letter because I knew he’d get it to you. 
Come and get your wife before Michael sticks his nose in where it doesn’t belong again.”
He didn’t need to be told twice. “Simeon-” “I’m ready to accommodate you Lucifer. You helped me when I needed to find Celes, this is the least I can do to repay that debt.” He said with a soft smile before opening his arms up. “Hug?” “... Just this once.” Lucifer said with a soft sigh before getting up and hugging Simeon, who happily hugged back. He’d finally be reunited with her again. He’d make sure she stayed this time. “Let us get going... I’ve made her wait long enough.” He said, pulling away from the hug as Simeon grinned and nodded. The two of them made their way to the human world so the Avatar of Pride’s bride could return to him, so she could return home.
Despite his many protests, Simeon insisted Lucifer stay with him and Celestina. In a way, he was glad Simeon was so stubborn. It was nice to be surrounded by Simeon’s sunny family. Before, it hurt to be around anyone’s family because all he could see was Remi but now... with her about to return, rather than seeing their family as a fleeting dream, he saw it as something he would make a reality. He would not allow anything to get in-between them this time, especially not Michael. So looking at Simeon’s sunny family and playing with his kids... it reminded him of what he will soon have.
While Simeon oversaw his kids taking care of the Angel’s Halo, Lucifer would go to scour London in order to find Remi. She was close, he could feel it. As he made his way around, a garden caught his eye. It reminded him of the garden outside of the Mausoleum where he would lay down on her lap while she ran her fingers through his hair as Cerberus played with one of his many toys. The last memory he had of that was after she’d returned from her human world trip. She noticed he had been stressed so she took him to see Cerberus. Then, when they reached the park, she had him lay his head down on her lap while she ran her fingers through his hair and sang for him.
He inhaled as he closed his eyes, remembering that scene. ‘We can make many more this time.’ He thought to himself before opening his eyes again. He was just about to continue walking when he heard soft singing coming from the garden he had previously thought empty. 
“... A ring on my finger and a promise of eternity...~ The one promise I refuse to fail to keep...~”
‘That’s...’ He recognized those lyrics. He quickly rushed into the garden and frantically looked around for the source of the singing. That’s when he saw her by the fountain in the middle of the garden, looking down at her lap which had a sketchbook on it.
“Every moment I spend with you~ My heart hammers away~ Screaming at me “Never let him go!” Oh I know, I know~ The kind of happiness I have with him~ No other could compare~ I love you I love you I love you~” “I love you~ I love you~ I love you so~”
Remi looked up from her sketchbook and towards the person who completed the chorus to the song and blinked when she saw him. She stood up, sketchbook in hand, and started walking towards him. Lucifer, in return, started walking towards her and met her at about halfway. “You’re... real, right?” Were the first words from her. Even her voice was the same. “Yes, I am real.” He responded with a smirk. “Would you like to check should you not believe me?” He asked with a raised brow. Remi hesitantly placed a hand on his cheek and immediately winced, placing her hand on her temple as she wobbled a little. Lucifer immediately wrapped his arm around her waist to steady her. “Remi...! Are you alright...?” He asked, worry settling in. Maybe he shouldn’t have come in contact with her. What if he accidentally triggered something that would end her life? What if- 
“I-I’m fine... M-My dearest Avatar of Pride...” She said smiling up at him through the pain. Lucifer could feel relief wash over him and for the first time in 600 years, he felt happy. “Just... remembering things... I would hate to not have any memories of you...” She said, leaning into his arms and resting her head against his chest. “You’re home now...” He said softly as he rubbed soothing circles on her back. “Yes... I’m home again...
... You found me.”

ihi lina! these past 2 nights, i ve been staying up late until early morning to binge-read your works one at a time. i am one of those who already read most of your stray kids fics but your way with words made me want to try all your works. i really had a fun time looking through all the stories youve written. this may be a long ask but i really just want to share my reactions through some of the ones i recently read hehe.
Whispers of Nature (plus TTA): out of all the stories under this alternate universe, i ve only read bloom before. first in the list, brave. at first i thought this will end with the reader dying. fortunately it didnt! i wouldve cried more if it did. chan saving reader from self-hate really softened my heart. the words he told her. the words that encouraged her to face the truth head-on and gain courage. i love every single one those. next, constellation! if i were the main character, i dont think i would be able force myself to stay and enjoy the remaining days that felix has before going back to the sky. the love that l have for him will grow deeper after all. although, it is true that it would seem selfish in felixs perspective. and thats what i like about this story the most. how reader made amends with him after avoiding him for the past days (?). she made the last memories of felixs here on earth the happiest he could ever have even if it will hurt her so much in the end. its also comforting to know that even if the two of them are so far away from each other physically, their hearts and souls are the closest they have ever been. felix is watching over her by the border between sky and earth. its a bittersweet story that was the best read after something as sweet-ended as brave. time and time again is the third story i read on the first night. from the start up until the end, it made my eyes swell from tears. every single life that reader had to live through with the knowledge that she and changbin will never end up together hurt me like a bitch :< my favourite life story of hers was of her first reincarnation. if im not wrong, it was the time where changbin was a son of some noble while reader was just a seamstress in the village. maybe its because it was their first reunion after changbin died an unknown death from her first life. or maybe its because of how they fell in love only through, as you stated, "vivid conversations, knowing smiles, and in the end, the barest brush of his hand". i honestly also dont know. what im sure is though, this specific lifetime of theirs was the closest to my heart. lastly, moonstruck. perhaps i shouldve started with this one first given that the other spin-offs gave so much spoilers about changbins history. but i guess, im also thankful that i read it last. it readied my heart for what was about to come. out of all the WoN aus, moonstruck was the only one that ended with the readers death (not including bloom since she was still alive at the end of the main story). still, it was inevitable that i would sob no matter how much i know about the outcome. their love is just really wholesome. periodt. plus the moon goddess (?), his mother. i love how supportive she was about everything changbin did. the end was depressing and intense! i figured out as much that she will die, given that it was mention on brave that someone special to changbin was killed off by the opposing kingdom. they almost got away from the king but i guess fate, or maybe you, have other plans for them :<<
Pearlescent + Bloom, Bloom, Pow!: these were the stories that i finished last night! starting off with pearlescent. the first part was so intense in a way that i really had no idea how it will end. i love the readers transformation from being a helpless child who got taken away from her mother to a woman who knew how to fight for herself even if it was just the simple 'talking back'. what happened to her was very traumatizing, just uttering a simple yes right in front of that king (🤢) wouldve needed a lot of bravery. yes, she was broken about her mothers death that she witnessed firsthand, but still, props to her for staying strong. something as disturbing as that wouldve wrecked and crushed anyone to pieces. still, with her determination and the help of sangyeon, she was able to break free from the shackles that bound her down. and in some way, im really proud of her character. when younghoon appeared unannounced and brought back happiness to her, i felt so happy for them. younghoons really understanding :"> i can see why reader fell for him. their progress as romantic partners were slow and thats exactly how i love it. after all, you need time to gain trust within one another. the closing for this ask, bloom, bloom, pow! there were two moments where your story gave me a bunch of butterflies in my stomach. first! when changmin got jealous of eric when he and reader bumped into each other. the second time was when reader jumped on changmin and they almost kissed. the whole story was full of fluffy moments, my heart didnt take it lightly. after the awkward silence of their moment with them being on top of each other (?) , i remember changmin walking out without dancing. it made me remember kevins words that at times he doesnt dance, it means hes pissed as fuck. when i realised that, i screamed so loudly :"> and the cafe scene from where changmin got envious of eric because reader and eric had been conversing too long with each other. after separating ways and reader looked back when she felt someone starting at her back, it really made me flusterd. i can imagine a changmin wearing round glasses in a big sweater just staring back at her. other than those two, the shenanigans of TheBoyz schemer line got me enjoying the story to its full extent. kevin being a loudass, eric being the chill and mature type, and younghoon being, well younghoon. it was really hilarious. contrary to the previous works of yours that i read, it was a breathe of fresh air. so far, this is my favourite of yours, sorry bloom. i was smiling and giggling all throughout. it was so cute huhu. i love every charavter so much. younghoons “Tell me you fucking kissed. You better have.” is literally me, please.

Irritated 3
Tumblr media
Bakugou and Izuku stand in line for quick ramen while you stand at a different vendor for a sub. You're salivating as you think of what you want on your eight inch.
A ping rings out from Izuku's pocket, he fishes for his phone almost dropping it with burning cheeks as Bakugou rolls his eyes beside him. The ash blonde watches the deep emerald man's face contort.
"We don't have time to eat!" Izuku exclaims.
"What?" A snarl from beside him.
"'You and Bakugou have an interview at 230 with the rest of class 1A in building A. Please keep Y/N in the same vicinity as you. Sorry for the last minute add on.'" He reads aloud, watching Bakugou's face sour.
"Wow that dick." Bakugou hisses as he looks over the food court before spotting you, "I guess I'll grab Y/N. Are we even in the right fucking building?"
"I'll look it up n..now!" Izuku unfolds the map of the convention center looking for where the q & as are normally held in building A as Bakugou stomps after you.
You're literally next in line, already got in your head what you're going to get before a strong hand pulls at the crook of your arm. Your blood runs cold while your heart accelerates, you hadn't seen the green eyes cuck follow you into the food court. He got a phone call and headed back in the direction of where you first saw him.
"Don't fucking tou..." You turn with furious eyes faintly glowing to your assailant only to hesitate when met with burning and fastly narrowing blood red eyes. He tugs you harder, vice grip on your arm threatening to bruise ruining any positive points he earned today. He drags you all the way to a panicking Izuku before you yank free of his deadly fingers.
"What the fuck I was literally next?!" Hunger further fueling your anger as you stare down Bakugou. He faces away to avoid an argument, angry himself to miss food.
Angry, though he will never admit it, that you had such a negative reaction to his touch.
Izuku fills you in as you're dragged to the giant conference room. The three of you flashing your passes to security to allow y'all to enter. They open the doors and tell you to sit in the reserved seats in the front of the stage at least five minutes before the event begins.
"This is bullshit you know?" You growl, doing what you do best taking it out on Bakugou.
"Yea becuase this was my fucking idea in the first place." He snaps back to you, crossing chiseled arms.
"Guys. Please. You were doing so well." Izuku tries just to be met with harsh glares.
"Bakugou Katsuki?!" A deep male voice rings out just barely over an excited womans voice shouting.
"Deku-kun!!"
Two figures approach quickly, Bakugou stiffens before slightly relaxing as none other than Red Riot walks striaght for him. While a chestnut haired woman comes for a blushing Izuku.
A cat smile creeps on your face as you figure this is the girl Deku was talking about. She hugs him in time with Red Riot hugging an angrier by the second Bakugou.
"Oi shitty hair let go of me damn it!" He snarls, cheeks slightly flushed before he is released. Ruby red eyes fall onto you before they shine with delight.
"Ah THE Tejina? I'm Kirishima!" He offers you a wide toothed grin before nudging Bakugou, "Is she your girlfriend?"
"HELL NO!" Both of you answer in unison as a beautiful bubblegum pink skinned woman approaches. She holds onto Kirishima's arm, looking too amused for your liking.
"I don't know they *do* kinda sound like they're dating." She laughs as red eyes narrow on her form. She extends her right hand to you.
"I'm Mina. Tejina, I just *love*your Instagram!! You HAVE to take me to that cafe you post the catppuccinos from!!!"
"Please call me Y/N." You smile, already loving the vibe of two very respectable heroes, "They make frogs shaped ones in spring!"
"Oh they do? Asui would love to see that!" She exclaims. The cracking sound of the PA system silences your reply as a voice rings out overhead.
*"Q&A with the famous class 1A in year 20XX will be commencing in t minus five minutes."*
"Well that's my cue!" You say as you begin to make your way to your seat.
"Join us for dinner!" Mina calls out and you give her a thumbs up before sitting in a section by yourself. For once you're thankful that you are not sitting in a seat at one of the many long tables on the stage and that you're a part of the crowd. You glace over your shoulder to sweep the room as you would normally do but you pay even closer attention, waiting for your eyes to catch dark grass green ones. You sigh with relief when you do not see them and settle into your chair as the lights dim a little.
"Welcome fans to the exclusive event of a rare Q and A panel for the famous class 1AAAAAAAA" The host announces as he brings his hand to point to left stage. The twenty alumni walk out as screams erupt behind you. Loud enough you'd think your ear drums burst.
"DEKU HAVE MY BABIES!!"
"RED RIOT GIVE ME YOUR RED ROCKET!"
"PINKY SPIT ON ME!!!!"
You roll your eyes over the typical fan thirst solidifying your original thinking about fans. That they place their idols on a pedestal forgetting that they too are people. Living and breathing just as them but with the pressure of responsibility being ten fold.
"Now we have gotten a majority of your questions from Twit handle @askconanything but we have made time for a special few to get a change to ask their burning questions." The host smiles at the crowd and their clapping echoes through the building as if it were thunder.
The questions are typical and directed to the team as a whole. Some ask for the dirty details of certain missions or even as simple of how do you take your coffee.
Some how they all answer, none of their responses surprising you.
Sato takes his with lots of sugar, even saying the old joke of "I like a little coffee with my sugar."
Todoroki likes his iced and black, Momo does not drink coffee instead an earl grey tea with light cream. Mina prefers a hot chocolate but would settle for a cuppocinno with an animal made from the froth. Denki likes anything as long as it has three expresso shots. Kirishima loves flavored creamers, a glutton for the seasonal creamer that comes out in the grocery store.
You roll your eyes as he blatantly hints that he's a pumpkin spice whore.
Izuku's you already know because it once surprised you as it does the whole crowd now.
As if his coffee order determined some personality trait we all missed.
"Oh I like my coffee black." He smiles and the crowd gasps while one fan screams I told you so!!
"And you Bakugou?" The host prompts looking at the last hero on the panel. He sighs angrily before answering.
"Iced, winter summer dont give a shit iced. Heavy heavy cream. Sugar and a pump of vanilla." He snarls crossing his arms as the host was surprised to even get a response from him.
Bakugou's was the only one you never would have guessed. You thought it would be black like Izuku's not the exact same way you took your coffee. Especially not after the time you brought coffee to one of the first meetings with Director Yami, Izuku, yourself and Katsuki. You bought two of your order just to spite Bakugou. Thinking he would be too prideful over ice in his coffee. Little did you know he had a mean petty bone in himself too.
But for it to be his preference? That couldn't be right. Had you ever seen him with an iced coffee before?
You snort as you question if you've ever even paid Bakugou more than a glance before this weekend started.
A few fans ask interesting questions about being students and what the dorms were like.
What their agencies look like and one even begs for a personal story about training with Bakugou was like that Kirishima happily answers while small pops catch your eye.
Oddly enough you're enjoying this Q&A, the vibes and banter that this class had with each other was astounding.
It made your heartache for more and for great friends of your own.
"Okay now the question I know you've all been waiting for!!" The host cannot even finish his question before the crowd erupts again. Some how knowing where he is going while you struggle to guess, "Relationship status!!!"
He seemingly picks members at random, staring with Minta. Who has oddly grown to normal height and even looks like an average person but his eyes still sparkle with that perverted gleam.
"Single." Is said by 16 of the class of twenty.
"Taken." Todoroki says simply, holding up the hand of Momo who sports a larger than life diamond. Mixed emotions are expressed by the crowd briefly before the host turns his quisitive gaze upon Izuku.
He is blushing furiously, fighting to keep his eyes from wandering to a certain brown eyed girl that proclaimed her status as S I N G L E.
"Si..Single." His first stutter of the whole hour and forty five minute event. Women scream as if they've won the lotto.
"Bakugou? Is their anyone special in your life?"
He narrows crimsom into slits before baring his teeth.
"What kinda dumbass questions are these?" It comes out dark but you hear the whimper of some of the women behind you.
"Your fans are dying to know! There isnt a single person for our lone wolf Ground Zero? No one that makes your heart race? Your palms hot? And not with explosions." The host graciously recovers and you see a faint flush creeping on his cheeks. You watch as he clenches his fist, biting the inside of his lip to keep from exploding. He holds a death glare with the host before sucking his teeth, a smile is painted on his lips. A smile that turns deadly cocky.
"The only love I have is for being number one."
Girls swoon in their chairs as some scream.
"I'LL BE YOUR NUMBER ONE KATSUKI!!"
Something about it makes your stomach clench but honestly are you surprised?
The man would rather have one night stands and only commit to work than to have to commit to another human being. You roll your eyes as the host smiles while agreeing before turning his gaze to bubblegum pink skin.
"Well I did just get this." She says slyly holding up her left hand, showing off a gleaming diamond. The crowd chants 'Who who' like a parliament of owls in the dead of night though you silently chant along with them having last heard of her being single.
"Well he's cute for starters." Mina cooes and you do not miss the blush that rises on the ruby eyed man next to her. Excitement suddenly bubbles in your blood as you wait on the edge of your seat for her to say what you're thinking.
Golden moons suspended in the black of night slide over to her shining gem. The silence of the room is unbearable as more that 150 people wait on baited breath.
"Kirishima yall!" She finally gushes and everyone is over joyous. Documenting it all before the media even had a chance, "I kept it in the dark for so long because I wanted my fans to know first."
And that had you feeling some type of way. Truly struck you as you thought of what that must be like. To be so close to your fans to want to announce to them first. As if they were friends, family. Guilt plagues you for a moment before you make a promise to yourself.
To be a little more open like Mina.
The class picks dinner at a restaurant with outdoor seating, its packed from both business and following flocks of fans keeping you just slightly on edge. You all wait while they gather a table together on the patio beneath the string lights and the slowly setting summer sun. For a moment you're left in the back, feeling like a stranger looking in through the picture window of a dining room.
As if watching the large family sitting around the table eating, laughing, all enjoying one another's company as they feast on the holiday dinner while snow piles high on your shoulders.
You feel the chill and weight now, fighting back to urge to reach out to the nearest bicep, to cling to the strong arm until you can swallow your self pity.
Along with friends you never really had family either. You ate in an empty apartment on every birthday, holiday and any day in between.
As the group is guided to be seated you put on your best mask, the one you wear when you tell people they will be okay when you know full well that their life has been altered forever. That even though the initial danger is over they will have to carry the weight of their trauma for years to come. No one ever mentioned that you too would carry their trauma with you, little pieces tucked neatly away in your pockets and purse.
No one notices your facade as you joke with them, as you feign a laugh.
No one but red eyes.
You sit between Kirishima and Bakugou. Across from Mina and Izuku, who's wide jade eyes are focused to the woman on his right with chocolate brown hair.
Eventually your smile becomes genuine as does your laugh. As if someone saw your withered frame illuminated in the dark night by the warm glow of their dining room staring in.
And instead of scaring you away they invited you in. Moved chairs around to accommodate you, even made you a warm plate.
That's what it feels like anyway when you laugh at Kirishima's joke at Bakugou's expense.
"How the fuck was I supposed to know she wasn't going to like spicy?!" Katsuki growls after Kirishima finishes a story about an ex girlfriend of Bakugou's who hadn't been in the picture long. Bakugou glares before gathering noodles with his chopsticks. Slurping on the very same spicy ramen from the story.
Kirishima leans in close, ruby eyes glittering with mischief as he whispers in your ear.
"I dare you to take a bite of his Narutomaki and offer him the rest. It's his favorite part."
"Give me 20 bucks and I'll do it." Your eyes mirror his with endless trouble twinkling in the low light. He glances between the ramen and you before a wide toothed smile pulls at his lips.
"Deal." A breath of a whisper. You snatch your chopsticks up and dip into his bowl, grabbing onto the small red and white swirl with ease before taking a bite of. The table is silent as they watch you do the forbidden. One should never steal food from Bakugou, especially not his fish cake.
But you do and then you have the audacity to offer it back gently, sticks poised in a way that the other half is facing him and easy to grab with his mouth should he wish.
He glares at it while the whole table waits with held breath. Izuku watches, ready to pounce with a Kaachan to avert his attention from your ever growing cocky form.
Instead of explosions or a flip of the long table, teeth gingerly take the other half of the fish cake.
You blush furiously as he holds eye contact with you, lips still over chopstick. It was as if the world fell to a black backdrop as he stared up at you.
"Are you sure she's not your girlfriend?" Denki finally asks breaking whatever spell was on the two of you. Bakugou quickly bites down harshly, snapping the chopsticks in his mouth like a heathen. He spits the two tips perfectly into the electric man's food before baring his teeth.
"I'm fucking sure." His tone is deadly before he continues to eat his ramen, "OI the fuck are yall looking at?! Finish your dinner."
Everyone returns to eating but you as you seem to almost be frozen in place. Replaying what just happened. How could someone so...so...so God damn harsh be so gentle. Or even look up at you with a gaze that was heated with something other than malice or hate for you.
You're brought back to reality when Kirishima offers you another set of plastic chopsticks.
"Yea I think you might owe me forty now." You joke and his laugh rings out over the patio.
"Desert anyone?" The waiter asks from behind you. You turn with glee, ready to announce that you will have the death by chocolate cake, that is until you are met with forest green eyes that are trained solely on you. No notepad in sight as the rest of the former class belts out what their sweet tooth is craving.
Your mouth goes dry and you fight to keep the blood from draining in your cheeks. You look over his face noting the odd, slightly hysterical smile he wears as you force yourself to control your face. Bringing your features into that of boredom, if he knew you recognized him that would only solidify the validity of his stalking.
Truly giving his actions purpose as to how he got here and how the hell he got a uniform for the restaurant.
"I'll take my check please." Your voice comes out apathetic as you turn away from him but before you do you notice the hurt that flashes in his eyes.
"Coming right up miss." His voice comes out smooth, normal but you hear the difference. The odd undertone that comes with an unstable mind that believes they are entitled to what they want.
It is a voice you will not be able to get out of your head soon enough.
You cannot stop your hand as it flies under the table to grip onto Bakugou's thigh with sharp nails biting through the fabric of his pants. He parts his lips to yell but his threat for you to be patient dies in his throat when he feels just how tightly you're holding onto him.
Hard enough to shake from the strain of holding back. Your petite hand glowing faintly. He looks over his shoulder then but cannot see anything out of the ordinary before his eyes shift back to your hand.
He does not let his eyes linger long knowing that anything over a second would give you away. Even as you laugh with Mina, your hand stays glued to his thigh.
You fight the urge to cling to Bakugou or Izuku as the three of you walk down the darkened streets. You're exhausted, angry and more than ready to take a scalding hot shower before going to bed. Once you three walk through the lobby doors you sprint up the stairs, too impatient for the elevator as you stare at room number 404 you remember that your key lies inside, forgotten on the coffee table.
No matter, you've picked plenty of locks or had the door seemingly open from within with your power many times before. You flick your wrist and the door opens of it's own accord before you slam it shut rushing into the bathroom to peel off your second skin.
You hear grumbling from the hall and your ears just barely pick up Bakugou's words.
"I still have her damn card."
"Just hold onto it Kaachan, she's had a long day.
Their doors slam in unison and the sound still causes you to jump although you knew the sound was coming. You take a few collected breaths as the soothing steam fills your lungs as it does the small bathroom.
The vapor dances in the light as you attempt to towel dry your hair and mostly fail.
You give up half way through, abandoning the towel as you exit the bathroom to the small bedroom. You see a shadowy figure sitting in the chair by the bedside and flick your wrist flinging it into the ceiling for it to come crashing back down before you flick on the lights.
You laugh bitterly to yourself when you see the lewd shirtless Bakugou staring up at you, having somehow forgot your ridiculous purchase and good time.
A heavy exhale leaves you as you dig in your bag, finding the bralette and cheeky black underwear you planned to wear for bed. Sliding them over your thick frame with ease, flopping on the bed with the Bakugou pillow. Looking at his flushed cheeks give you a laugh, bringing you back to leaning against his muscular frame to reach your wallet.
The way he looked up at you beneath long lashes, how his eyes held new life. No longer were you under his scorching gaze, it had softened. Become warm.
Your own cheeks burn as you slam the pillow down.
"So Kaachan the fish cake is your fav huh?" You ask softly to yourself as you force memories of him yelling at you during missions to the forefront of your mind.
It works for the time being, you punch the pillow in its "gut" before turning on your side trying hard for sleep.
Just as you begin to loose where your dream starts and your conciousness ends you hear talking in the hall.
God you hated hotels as you're woken by the commotion. They are drunk from the likes of it, screaming of how great of a time they had as they make their way down the hall. You turn facing the door with a growl, squeezing your eyes shut.
You hear footsteps again but this time they do not bypass your door and they seem to stand before it. You prop yourself up on your elbow as you hear the door jiggle.
"Are you sure this is her room?"
Your heart begins pounding in your chest, you know that voice.
You were determined to commit it to memory despite only hearing a sentence from its owner
"Yes I'm sure."
"Give me a key." The voice comes out dark and your throat dries as you silently shift from the bed onto the carpet with bare feet.
"I cant. I shouldnt have even brought you this far cuzzo."
"Useless." He snarls as he activates his quirk, a flesh colored liquid pools beneath the door, struggling to get in through the cracks.
You back up until your hands are pressed against smooth glass. You gently ease the door open before sliding it shut behind you. You stand on the balcony looking left and then right before wondering which room is fucking which.
Was Deku to the right? The left? You weren't sure as time ticked by too quickly. His quirk must not have worked so you watched the door handle jiggle again causing your skin to crawl as you scramble to the balcony to your left.
You hoped and prayed two things.
One that whomever was trying break into your room would leave once he was unsuccessful.
And two that you were not on the balcony of a certain hot head as you eased yourself into the flimsy plastic chair.
You couldn't stand the thought of showing him any more vulnerability this comic con. You hug your knees as the voices and bangs from the hall are drowned out by the loud traffic below.
Wishing for this nightmare to end.
Oh but my sweet child it had just begun.

A smile to remember
Tumblr media
Author: @sabine-leo
Chapters: 3/?
Genre: Fluff and Humor
Note: Thank you so much for your likes, reblogs and comments. You don´t know how much i aprecciate them! Hope you enjoy chapter 3 !! 
                                                -Chapter 3-
The one where you watch a short movie in your head…and feel guilty  
 Totally in thought you put away a toy that was left on the ground. Standing by that shelf you grin inwardly.
He is reading again. Blimey, he is here again. Gosh, that voice. He could read the manual for a toaster and it would sound awesome. Was it rude to get him to read? He seemed not to worried about it. But that spark in his eyes. 
You were lost in your thoughts as a big hand lightly landed on your shoulder. Too big to be from a child or any of your co-worker. You jump a little and turn around.
“Oh, sorry. I didn´t mean to scare you.” Tom was standing in front of you and grinning as if he wasn´t sorry at all. He put his hands in his pockets and teetered on his feet. His head sinks down a bit and he looks up at you if that is even possible with him being a head taller then you. One hand left his pocket and messed up his curly hair.
“If you were a child, I’d think you had something to confess.”  Tom gave his signature laugh and looked into your eyes. “I guess you are right. I may have to confess something.” “Out with it!” you try to say in a stern voice. He was about to talk but stops to laugh inwardly and ruffle his hair another time.
“I may or may not have promised the kids to be back tomorrow and read another chapter. Mischievous little ones!” “Says the God of Mischief on screen.” You retort. He laughed out loud this time. And there it was, that big boyish grin which was imprinted on your eyelids since last Monday.
“I hope that doesn´t cause any problems... With me being here to read?!” You have to compose yourself for a second after that smile and shake your head. “No, no problems at all. Just be here around the same time as today and I´ll be happy to let you in and read to the children.”
His nod and thankful smile made you smile too.  
“Then… I´ll be seeing you again.” He repeats his words from last week… again in the voice of Loki and leaves backwards to help Dylan get ready to go home. You shake your head laughing quietly.
Is this becoming a theme?
Some minutes later Dylan hugs your leg and says his goodbyes. Tom is standing right behind him “See you tomorrow Mrs (Y/L/N).”  “Have a good afternoon Dylan. You too, Mr Hiddleston” You smile at each other. Dylan grabs Toms hand and starts walking. But Tom stops him for a second. “Wait, before I forget. This is for you.” He hands you a folded paper. “Thank you.” You say without looking at it and waving back at Dylan. Dylan sends the sweetest smile your way and holds out his arms over his head, looking at Tom. Tom looks at him “What are you doing buddy. Are we walking out like this?” He holds his arms up like Dylan does. Dylan giggles. “Silly uncle Tom!” You laugh quietly as Dylan keeps standing that way.
“I wanna fly out like a superhero! Like THOOOOOR!” he was giggling away as if that was a secret, shared between them. “Dylan, Dylan, Dylan…I told you, you picked the wrong brother!” With those words Tom grabbed his nephew and turned him upside down. “Now you will walk out on your hands! Thor… please!” He added playfully abash. Tom looked at you from his upside down state and shrugged his shoulders. “Uncle Loki is a…” he was searching for the word. “…Villian” Tom laughed and carried his nephew out…upside down.
Before you get the chance to take a close look at the paper in your hand you get called from Clara. She needs your help in the kitchen. You tuck the paper in your bag and get to work again.
The walk home hours later after work was a chilly but nice one. At your door you rummage in your bag for your keys. “Ah there they…” you fish out the paper from Tom. Curiosity finally gets the better of you and you unfold it. The laugh that comes out of your mouth is whole heartedly and loud. Looking back at you from the piece of paper was a gorilla. Hand drawn.
Signed with 
Tom
 You unlock your door and pin this masterpiece in your hand onto your magnetic board in the living room. Shaking your head, still laughing.  Sitting down after you get yourself something out of the fridge you think about the day and can´t help the smile that won´t come off of your face.
Adorable, silly man. With a voice of velvet and dark melting chocolate.
And you´ve only heard him reading a children’s book. You really haven´t seen nothing yet. Thoughts of him reading something more for adult ears creep up on you. Like your romance book for example. The way he would sit in an armchair. Adjust his glasses and look at you when pausing. Suddenly you feel a hot flash going through you. And a whole movie was playing in your head before you knew it. How could listening to somebodys voice be so affecting?
Picturing him in that armchair of yours, next to the reading lamp. Leaning back comfortably. His long legs crossed. That knowing smile, of how much he can affect you with his voice, toying with his lips. The pause before the protagonists’ kiss. This rumbling in the back of his throat that he´d make. Goosebumps break out on your skin. The hair at the back of your neck stirs.
“Stop it!” You jump out of your seat. “I can´t do this. That´s so rude.” You chastise yourself.
Going over to the sink you flash your face with some cold water. Get a grip (Y/N) this can´t be happening. He´s somehow a client and a decent human being who shouldn’t be reduced to his looks and his voice. Maybe you should start reading a thriller instead of that romance. It´s messing with your head!
What you wouldn´t acknowledge to yourself… it wasn´t the book messing with your head.
It was Tom.
Not that far away Tom was sitting at his table staring at a script he needed to read. But the words he read couldn´t get a hold in his brain. He is thinking of you. Trying to imagine what your reaction to his drawing was. He bit his lip, tossing the script on the table. Tomorrow he´d go read to the kids again. And hopefully exchange some words with you. But for that to really happen he needed to finish reading. He got up, made himself a cup of tea and tried anew.
The cold water helped. At least a tiny bit. After discarding your clothes, you take a shower and change into a comfy t-shirt and yoga pants. Day slowly turns into night and you lie awake for quite a while. Eventually sleep finds you. But your dreams revolve around a man who probably needs to get an excuse for your behaviour tonight. Good thing that he doesn´t know what you thought.
The next day at work you find yourself looking at your watch. Would he show up? Would he keep his word? Everything was ready. The book lay ready next to a pillow, the kids were at their best behaviour today. You thought you heard the door some minutes ago, but that could´ve been someone else walking in or out. You sit down to go over some files that needed to be updated. Clara was looking after the children so you could concentrate.
Tom walked in and made a little detour into the kitchen. Charming as he was no co-worker of yours could say no to his request to put a little something into the pocket of your jacket. As he enters your room, he smiles your way. But you´re so deep into the paperwork that you don´t notice. Quietly he sits down at the pillow in the far corner of the room and watches you. Post its going into files. Notes written down. In his eyes you look intense but so lovely nibbling on your pen. He could just sit here and watch you for the rest of the day, but It doesn´t take long for the kids to find him. Soon he starts reading to them.
Eventually you look up from the files in front of you and notice the quiet room. Since your attention is no longer on the paper work your head turns almost out of its own will to your left. A little almost shy wave coming your way lets you smile. “Hi.” Tom mouths. You incline your head a little and mouth back “Hi”
“Tooom, don´t stop!” a little boy yelps. Tom excuses himself and finishes the chapter.  Hugs and high fives were given in this little group surrounding Tom before he stands up and arranges his dishevelled hair. You see that he´s walking over to you. “Hello Mrs (Y/L/N)” he holds out his hand and waits for you to take it. “Hi Mr Hiddleston” You take his hand and he tucks you up from your chair. “We finished the chapter. And I got a new request from James...and Dylan.” Tom laughed lightly. “They want me to read The Dschungel Book” You look into his smiling eyes and then over to James.
“You don´t have to do that. You´re surely a busy man who doesn´t have time to read as much as you did the last days!” “Probably not every day, but for the next months I could try to be here for Storytime…say…one day every week?!” “Only if you are willing and it doesn´t cost you to much of your precious time.” “Don´t worry. I quite like spending time with you… here… I´m mean with Dylan!” he spluttered.
Throughout this conversation your hand was in his. It seems neither of you had noticed it.

Shownu:
Tumblr media
So. He’s definitely more withdrawn than the other boys.
Most of when you two would hang out you’re watching tv
Maybe on your phones
He would show you videos he saw that he thought would make you laugh
He was alright right
You would recommend kdramas for him to watch on the road
He would skype you to watch the newest episodes with you
Always insists on paying for your food when you go out with him.
“Just let me pay. It’s not a big deal.”
He always said it with his little smile playing on his lips, so you couldn’t really refuse.
When you had a bad day, he was who you would go to first. 
Definitely your favorite shoulder to cry on.
He would rub your back and not offer advice until you asked him.
Overall, reserved but loving. 11/10 need me a friend like Shownu
Wonho:
Tumblr media
v e r y energetic. (not the same as minhyuk, but still pret energized.)
always feels like he has to be talking to you, if not in person then through text.
literally if you set your phone down for ten minutes you come back to twenty texts and a missed phone call.
“I thought you were ignoring me :(”
takes emojis very seriously
if you don’t respond with the same enthusiasm with emojis he thinks he did something to make you mad.
likes to carry you.
like even if you don’t want to suddenly you’re off the ground.
laughs at all of your jokes, even if they aren’t funny
most of the time when you hang out its watching him excercize
he can and will drag you to the gym so. be prepared.
overall just be prepared to exert a lot of emotional energy. he just wants to make sure that hes keeping you happy. soft lil bub  
Minhyuk:
Tumblr media
energetic pt 2
he will literally keep you doing anything his mind can think of for hours
loves to make you laugh, so expect him embarrassing himself and you in public.
clin g y boy
he really loves being close to people, so anything you’re doing hes got your arms intertwined.
“Just hold my hand! It’ll be easier to get around!!”
l o  u   d
you can hear him from a mile away so you always know when he’s close.
loves to sing to you 
when you’re laying in bed, he’ll wrap himself around you and sing to you until you’re about to fall asleep
he really just has this soft spot for you tho
like he would throw hands with anyone who ever made you upset
overall a loving puppy who just wants to see you smiling. oof im soft
Kihyun:
Tumblr media
So. Every one at all times compares him to being like. a mom, but i don’t agree at all..
hes definitely the dad friend. slightly detached from all situations, kinda awkward when it comes to your emotions, makes really old jokes, but really really loves you.
so with that comes him being slightly overprotective.
he has to make sure anyone that you want to take time out of your day to talk to is worth your time.
he likes knowing that you’re taking care of yourself.
texts you to tell you to sleep and eat, even if it annoys you sometimes.
he doesn’t exactly know what to do when you get upset, so he just starts making faces to try and make you smile
“Oh good.. I’m glad you’re smiling now.”
loves to hug you tightly so he can laugh at how you try to squirm out of his grip
he would definitely straighten up your living room if its a mess while you’re out doing stuff.
you would come back to him with your feather duster and music blasting.
overall just a dorky dude who loves you a lot, and makes sure you’re out there living your healthiest life. a whole mood. 
Hyungwon:
Tumblr media
to start off with there would be a lot of laughing. like a lot.
mostly him laughing at you, cause he just thinks its funny when you do things on accident.
You trip? Hes laughing. Drop your phone? He drops a giggle.
there would be a lot of sleeping over at each others houses. 
like you would come home from work, and see hyungwon dead to the world in your bed.
you would shrug and just lay down next to him
i think he would really like to shop with you, to get your opinions, and also to spoil you lowkey.
like i feel like hes this guy who likes to buy the other members things that he thinks they would like, so he would definitely pass that onto you.
doesnt ever call you, but he will facetime you if you werent around.
mostly you two text, cause its a lot less effort on both of your parts.
definitely nights spent hanging out involve you cooking for him after he whines enough. 
“I’m so busy, please cook for me~”
all in all, hes a pretty chill guy, just looking to laugh and hang out in a low maintenance setting. definitely me but like.. whats new ya know 
Jooheon:
Tumblr media
very ve r y s o f t
like i don’t know how to explain it other than that sentence.
he’s almost like the older brother you never knew you needed.
if you’re cold, he’s giving you his jacket, if you’re hungry he’s buying food right then. Raining? He’s holding the umbrella like.
definitely challenges you to rap battles just so he can outrap you.
invites you to hang out at his studio all the time.
has you track raps for him so he can hype you up
he always drives you to and from wherever you’re going because he’s scared of letting you walk alone.
“I’m not going to let you be in danger idiot.”
definitely uses idiot as a term of endearment.
texts you uplifting quotes to make you happy if you’re sad.
he acts cute when he wants you to smile, but you always end up pushing him away 
overall the best hype man who also hugs all of your problems away. cause lets be real jooheon def gives the best hugs like oof… 
Changkyun:
Tumblr media
(This gif has nothing to do with this reaction, I’m just really glad I got the chance to use it lmfaoooooooooooo. Sorry Changkyun I really do love you.)
im just gonna say it. your text history is just you and him sending memes back and forth.
he definitely sends memes of himself, and you yell at him saying those weren’t allowed.
he loves to make fun of you gently to make you laugh, and of course you do the same.
hes def the type to call you at 3 am to be philosophical
and you always answer and listen because it always makes you happy
hes very helpful when you need advice
he always knows what to say and what not to
hes very spontaneous with how you two hang out.
sometimes hes making you hike, and sometimes you just lay on your kitchen floor after you two had a competition on who could eat the most cookie dough.
v sarcastic, but always knows when to turn it down for you.
l o u d pt. 2
he raps at you when he knows you’re already low key annoyed at him
overall hes just trying his best to make sure that you’re in your best mood around him. yes memes included. 
I really hope you enjoyed this!

Valentine You-chan (DiaYou)
Ch 5- You Choose
Summary: You disturbs Dia while she was carrying out her Student Council duties, unintentionally, Dia regains silence in a Dia way. 
Author Notes
I wonder if anyone is expecting/waiting for the new chapter. Hahas. XD
You know Dia’s call and response during lives? OwO This is how I read their pairing name:
Di-a-You~!! XD
You could read DiaYou at ff.net or AO3 too.
You is in the Student Council Room. Why she’s in the Student Council Room? That’s because she wanted a change of pace and a good hideout from the energetic and high tension girls who have been coming up to her one after another to talk and give her chocolates.
Why the Student Council Room? Because it was silent if you exclude the stamping and scribbling and paper shuffling sounds of the Student Council President handling the paperwork. Also, there’s a very low chance of anyone else knocking on that door to visit the Student Council President. Very low chance.
“Dia-san.”
The moment the ever popular high diver spoke the first syllable, Dia’s alertness raised a notch, when her name was called by the high diver, Dia’s grip on her pen tightened; doing her best to not lose focus on the sheet of paper that probably has something to do with approving or disapproving a club’s request, and to not respond immediately.
Calm down. Dia instructed herself.
“Thanks for letting me camp out here.” The high diver flashes a grateful smile to her fellow groupmate, whose lips were twitching up and down rather uncontrollably as she debated with herself on whether she should return a smile or not as that might come off as she’s trying really hard to leave a friendly impression.
It’s rude to not return a smile when someone smiles at you. But what kind of smile should I return? What will You-chan think of it?
Dia simply responds with a single grunt that came three seconds after the ash-brunette’s comment. Dia sighs internally for being unable to bring up a smile and responding slow.
You-chan might misunderstand and think that I’m extra aloof…
Emerald eyes peek from behind her bangs to observe the second year on the student council couch; You have leaned back onto the couch with a small, relaxed smile.
Perhaps she really is exhausted…
Dia rereads the document on the top of her current paperwork, stamps an approval and puts it aside; thinking that she would try to finish the work fast and spend proper conversational time with the ash-brunette that can make her feel self-conscious just from being in the same room.
You, however, seem to think otherwise as she starts a solo conversation about the horde of chocolates she received this Valentine’s Day. “…And so, the girl said she saw one of my high diving competitions and became a fan.” You chuckles. “That’s embarrassing, don’t cha think? I don’t think I’m amazing enough to have fans…”
You’re plenty amazing, You-chan… I would like to attend and watch you during your competition someday too…
Dia thought it would end there and she could concentrate on the paperwork but just as she was about to stamp a paper, yet again, the ash-brunette thought otherwise as she spoke of another girl. “Apparently the chocolate store was really packed with all sorts of girls. You know? From elementary schoolers to working adults.” You moves in her seat rather animatedly; crossing her arms when making a thoughtful face or bouncing at an epiphany. “Imagine if Mito-nee or Shima-nee was there too! Ha! That’ll be a fun story to talk about with Chika-chan!”
They could be buying obligatory chocolates or chocolates for family… And is Chika-chan who you will think of first when sharing a fun story? I am here too…
The student council president stamps the paper with more force than necessary, a sudden irritation bubbling inside her though she does not fully comprehend the reason for her irritation; You and Chika has always been close.
“After she chose the chocolates she went back again. Because there were two flavours actually… I think… strawberry and original…I got them here. I wonder what it’ll taste like-”
“You-san.” Dia calls You in that chilling, stern and attention demanding tone as she gets off the Student Council President chair and stomps over to where the second year is sitting.
Dia expected You to make some noise when she allowed the ash-brunette to lounge in the student council room, but she lost her patience from the constant talking of all the other girls, they had nothing to do with Dia or Aqours.
“Y-Yes, Dia-san?” The black haired girl’s tone was more than enough to make You sit up straight and stutter a quick response.
I would like you to stop talking about your eventful day of receiving chocolates from inconsequential girls.
“Choose your chocolate.” Dia commands when she stands right in front of You, back arched and approaching where the ash-brunette that looks almost like a frightened bunny sitting on the couch.
“Eh? Er..right.” You hastily obeys as she was intimidated by the third year’s manipulative tone, commanding emerald eyes and the fact that Dia had one knee on the couch between You’s legs and a hand stretched pass You’s head to the couch’s headrest behind all added up to a flustered You.
This close up to You-chan… I can tell that her eyelashes are rather long and pretty…
Inside Dia was memorizing Aqours’ designer’s facial features, but on the outside, she was scaring the younger girl with the close proximity Dia placed herself in.
Grabbing the first thing the panicky ash-brunette caught after scattering the contents from the plastic bag out by accident, she raises it to the student council president’s line of sight.
P-Pocky?!
Dia’s glowing emerald eyes narrowed though a hint of a smile quirked at the edge of her lips and she manages to speak in her calm, paralyzing tone. “So this is your choice. You know what this means I presume.”
Does Y-You-chan actually w-want to play the l-l-legendary pocky game with me?
The ash-brunette who was forced to lean against the back of the couch because of Dia’s cornering technique, glanced over to the object in her hand to see what she picked up. Her blue eyes widened considerably at the sight of a pocky box, matcha chocolate flavoured, and the scene of playing the only game she knows to be played with pocky screens in her mind like a movie on fast-forward – the stars of the movie being Dia and her. You gulps and nods.
I see.
The usually reserved and level-headed third year took the ash-brunette’s nod as an answer to her question in her mind, forgetting that just because You knew what the pocky game is, does not necessarily equate to ‘Yes, let’s play it, Dia.’ But assumptions have been made as Dia smoothly puts the pocky stick in both of their mouths.
Bite.
The stunning green in Dia’s eyes commanded the ash-brunette who was gripping the couch’s seat tightly, part of her wondering if she could run from the situation and another part of her thinking how did she get into such a situation with the cool beauty student council president.
Each bite and consumption of the pocky stick seemed to resound throughout the Student Council room, slowly and steadily, the chocolate stick was being eaten and the two will soon meet each other by the lips.
Is this how I will give my first kiss to You-chan?
You closes her eyes when the pocky stick could no longer be seen in her peripherals, and when their lips met, they both took the time to finish the pocky in their mouths, Dia didn’t pull away and neither did You.
Such a mysterious feeling… It’s as though the world isn’t as I’ve known it. For why is my heart beating so harshly while my mind feels so at peace? As though the way my lips being connected with You-chan’s is right….normal...as it should be.
Dia moves her face away slightly to take in the reaction of the ash-brunette she was somewhat pinning to the couch; You’s mouth was opened slightly, her lips didn’t really leave a hint that Dia just kissed her, and the emotion in You’s ocean blue eyes seemed to show that she was going to apologize.
Don’t apologize.
Dia presses her lips onto You’s once more, her right hand moves up the back of the second year’s neck and into You’s unexpectedly soft ash-brown curls. Dia ignores the ash-brunette’s shudder and surprised yelp and following moans as she pushes You into a lying position, legs hitting onto some of the fallen chocolate while the two got caught in a hot and passionate kissing session.
If you apologize, it would mean you didn’t like kissing me. Don’t apologize, You-chan.
Dia was more courageous in her fervour intent of kissing away any chance of apologies from You as the second year was actually hugging her and not pushing her away. However, when they separated, awkward silence reigned as the beet red student council president went back to her seat and an equally red in the face and out of breath You sat up only to daze between nothing and Dia who just kissed her, a lot.
.
.
.
While You and Dia are walking out of the student council room to head home, Dia can’t help but feel a little iffy…like You may not be on the same page as her despite what they just did.
“You-san.” The third-year calls.
You turns around, back straight and attentive. “Yes?”
Dia narrows her eyes by a millimetre at the ash-brunette’s stiffness. “You do know…that I like you right?”
“Eh?!” You’s reaction confirmed the feeling Dia had that the designer did not understand her fully.
Dia strides over to You and tips the ash-brunette’s chin upwards with her index finger below You’s chin and thumb on the space below You’s lips. Ocean blue eyes widen greatly when Dia kisses You again, for only two seconds, but that was enough for You’s stomach to flip a good three times and her heart to skip a really long beat.
“I won’t kiss someone I don’t like.” Dia states.
“…Oh.” You’s mouth was left agape and the student council president simply takes the bag of chocolates from the designer’s hand before she drops them on the ground.
After taking four steps away from a frozen in place You, Dia turns her body slightly back to You before saying, “How about you come over to my house.” And she walks off again, hoping for You to follow.
You does.
Author Notes
I had a rather long battle in my mind of whether to use “-san” or “-chan” for the way they address each other. …because even after the Dia episode in S2, I noticed they were still addressing each other with “-san”! O,O Correct me if I’m wrong, cos’ that’s what I heard. =v=
I like the idea of Dia addressing them with “-chan” in her head but “-san” on the outside because she’s shy and uptight. Hahas. XD
Now. I hope I wrote Dia well! XD
Leave me comments if you like~

How to Handle a Nico: chan
Primary Pairing: NicoMaki Words: ~1k Rating: K Time Frame: Some time in the fall, or early winter, of Maki's 1st year and Nico's 3rd year of high school. Story Arc: Stand Alone
List of all HtHaN scenes
Author’s Note: Just a short and fluffy scene I’ve been meaning to write for a while. The topic came up in a translated doujin recently and it reminded me to dust off my notes.
“Say, Maki-chan.”
“Mmm?” The redhead responded absently, not looking up from her paperwork.
“Why do you call me Nico-chan?”
“Because you act like a little kid.”
“Wha, hey…”
“And everyone else calls you it.”
Nico narrowed her eyes and tilted her head as she stared at the redhead kitty-corner from her in the kotatsu. “No they don’t.”
“Mmm?”
“Eli and Umi don’t use honorifics with anyone in µ’s.” Technically Nozomi didn’t call her Nico-chan either, but that was a different situation.
“Because we have a ‘no-senpai’ rule.” Maki still didn’t seem to be giving the conversation much thought as she reached over to jot down an answer to one of the questions in her homework.
“That doesn’t account for Eli, though.”
“Mmm…”
Nico pursed her lips. This wasn’t going how she had intended.
Maki looked up for the first time in a while. “Would you prefer that I go back to calling you Nico-senpai?”
“What? No!” Why was Nico the one getting frustrated?
“Alright then.” The first year returned her attention to her work.
Perhaps a change of tactics was in order. “It’s just that Nico calls her adorable junior Maki-chan because she lo~ves her so~ much.” The twintailed girl practically sang. Ah, there it was; the reaction she wanted. The other girl’s hand trembled a bit and red started to dust her cheeks. Perhaps another push? “And that is why only Nico’s Maki-chan gets to be called Maki-chan!” Nico slid over, reached over, and grabbed Maki to pull herself against her.
“Wh-wha-wha-what the heck?!” Maki sputtered, squirming against the hug. “I don’t get it! Nico-chan!?”
Nico couldn’t help laughing. “Tell Nico!” She insisted, rubbing their cheeks together. “Tell Nico why Maki-chan only calls Nico, Nico-chan!”
“So warm… Nico-chan get off!”
“Not until Maki-chan tells Nico!”
“Mohhh…”
“Te~ll Nico~!”
“It’s because it suits you!” Maki finally belted out.
“Ohhh?” Nico nuzzled closer. “How so~?”
“B-Because Nico-chan is c-cute…” Maki’s voice dwindled. “So c-calling you N-Nico-chan suits you…”
“Dwaaa~! Maki-chan think’s Nico is cute!” Though still teasing, Nico couldn’t help feeling extremely happy with the admission. “Maki-chan must love Nico too~!”
“L-Love?!” the redhead struggled harder against the embrace. “I don’t get it! A-Anyway, Nico-chan get off. We need to study.” Her stammer lessened and her tone changed to be more serious. “We both have tests coming up.”
Still laughing, Nico finally released her quarry. “Fine, fine…” She said, getting to her feet. “You want some more tea?”
“Yes… please…” Maki’s voice softened again.
The third year grinned. “Alright, I’ll be right back.” That said, she spun on her heel and headed towards the kitchen.
“Alright…”
Nico couldn’t stop grinning as she reached for the container of tea leaves in the cupboard. Maki had called her cute. Sure, the younger girl had been under the duress of teasing, but it still had to count for something, right? And while she hadn’t confirmed the declaration of love, she hadn’t denied it either. That was also kind of good, right?
Perhaps someday Nico could bring herself to say such things more seriously. What would Maki’s reaction be then? Maybe Maki would be the one to come forward first… no… Nico shook her head and chuckled at the idea. That would never happen. The first year was too clueless about such matters.
And really, things were fine for now, Nico thought, pouring the hot water over the tea leaves and starting the timer. The two of them were slowly falling into a routine of spending time together; studying at Nico’s place, playing music at Maki’s place, hanging out in the clubroom, or catching a bite to eat at a family restaurant. Nothing needed to be rushed. Maki wasn’t the easiest person to read, but so long as she continued seeking time with Nico and not denying Nico when she sought time with her, that was good enough.
Nico set the tea pot and cups on a tray and headed back to the living room.
Maki’s heart pounded against her chest. What the heck had that been all about?
Granted, it was not the first time Nico had teasingly confessed to her, but it had been the first time the older girl had reversed it; claiming that Maki loved Nico. What a ridiculous concept! As if Maki could actually fall in love with her bratty senior. Besides, she didn’t have time for dating. She was lucky her parents were allowing her to continue to be a school idol, there’s no way they would let her waste time dating anyone; especially not an idol-obsessed girl like Nico.
Yet her heartrate refused to slow. Calm down, Maki. Calm down. She took a few slow breaths.
Still, Maki couldn’t deny that she had been telling the truth earlier. Nico was indeed cute. Very cute. Well, at least when she wasn’t overdoing things with her idol persona. Why couldn’t she just behave normally? Didn’t she know she was cute the way she was? There was nothing wrong with getting excited about idols, or about being one, but her senior just had this strange notion that she needed to keep pushing everything to some higher limit than was necessary.
Pride. That had to be it. Maki could sympathize with that to an extent, but Nico even took her pride to an unnecessary extreme.
“Tea’s ready!” A cheerful voice announced.
Maki looked up. “Thank you.” She replied, with a sincere smile.
This was the Nico she preferred. The Nico who quietly set a steaming cup of tea at each of their places at the kotatsu. The Nico who smiled pleasantly as she held out an earbud so they could listen to some music. The Nico who dutifully picked up her pencil and began studying. This was the Nico that Maki found cute; the one she called Nico-chan.
“It’s not polite to stare.”
Maki blinked back to reality. “Oh… uhm… S-Sorry…” She uttered.
Nico smirked. “It’s alright. Nico doesn’t mind if Maki-chan is entranced by her beauty.”
And there she goes again… “Idiot.”
“You like it.”
“Maybe…”
“Oh, I like that song. Mind if we listen to it again?” Nico reached for the Back button.
“That’s fine.”
And with that, Maki’s attention turned back to her studies.
Author’s Note Continued: I actually had an additional 300 or so words written, but haven’t been able to continue that part for a few days. Still, I wanted to at least get this part out, so I cut things off at the last scene change, posted this and hope to get the other part written someday.

stanning vast error? in 2019? L
Lol yup! Im stanning fantrolls and Homestuck in 2019, might as well dig myself deeper, don't cha think? Lmao
I just got into Vast Error recently this summer and oh boy the ride so far is great! I did a whole live reaction on the VE discord, doodling my way through until I got too absord into the story and couldn't make myself from dropping the device I was reading on to draw my reactions. At the moment, unlike HS, I've been dabbling in the theory side of VE and I might re-read the comic and continue my reaction doodles from where I left off. I missed drawing my little avatar ('though they look exactly like auliit lmao. Im sorry my boy. You deserve better.)
VE is in a hiatus at the moment but they will update again around Halloween, perfect timing to what happened in the webcomic so far. It's only less than a thousand page and so far the story just lifted off from introducing all the main cast. I don't want to spoil the most interesting bit of VE but to give you a hint, I can tell you the fanadventure webcomics Ive really got into are Heinoustuck, LucidStuck, and All Night Laundry. Since catching up to VE, I can say it is now at the top with these well loved webcomics.
From what I know, VE is a passion project started just by two people and then it grew with other like-minded people now. They are all very nice people. I haven't chatted with all of them but aaahhhhhh I think I can share in their passion for this webcomic and the future for it and for the community. The ppl Ive talked to in the discord server so far are great too and aaahhhhh. Just aahh~~~ It's just a nice place to just share in a common intrest(s).
I've rambled enough here lol. It's just a really nice comic to go into, especially after all the things that happened earlier this year for me. So yeah. Thanks for giving me a chance to ramble about what I like, anon.

Hello Boxy Ladies! I am thrilled to have been given the esteemed opportunity to guest blog. I was lucky enough to meet the lovely Lauren in a Facebook group of women who share mutual interests, including makeup, fashion and skincare, so the question of skincare routines has come up a time or two. And I am usually the one spouting off my laundry list the loudest. So in an effort to quiet me I think, Lauren offered me the chance to discuss my routine here. (Lauren’s Note: That is absolutely not true! I love hearing which products Loren is currently into and so selfishly, I thought she could just write them all down for me so I could refer to them later. And then I thought it would make for an interesting blog! So here we are! And I was right… it’s super interesting! And it’s actually going to be a little mini-series because Loren really knows her shit, so there is a lot to digest! So stay tuned for Part 2 [or 3?] soon! You’re in for a treat! And a belated Happy Birthday to Loren– her birthday was yesterday!)
To say I love skincare is an understatement. I have spent many a sleepless night falling down the dizzying rabbit hole of skincare blogs, subreddits and online magazine articles. Unfortunately, I was not blessed with good skin. I suffered with acne all through my adolescence, which has caused scarring as an adult, and I still experience painful hormonal breakouts. I spent my self-esteemless teenage years visiting dermatologists, trying infomercial products and even humoring my mother’s strange home-spun remedies (fun fact: camomile tea does absolutely nothing to clear up a white head. Shocking, I know!). And during college, self-care wasn’t exactly a priority compared to paper-writing marathons, so my skin suffered for it. Did 20 year old me know anything about exfoliation and SPF and hydration? Nope, but she knew plenty about Virginia Woolf and Weimar Germany! So useful! I was under the misconception that acne needed to be “dried out,” so I did not apply moisturizer properly for years. And sun protection? I don’t think I thought anyone in Connecticut needed sun protection.
Cut to: turning 30. That dreaded age when you inevitably flash back to the mistakes and misguided decisions of your youth. I was desperate to catch up for years of skin neglect. Seeing a dermatologist again, I finally found someone who understood my condition and prescribed medications that, miraculously, made a difference! But once my skin was clear, I knew that wasn’t the end of skincare. Suddenly I had to worry about: FINE LINES! LOSS OF ELASTICITY! DULLNESS! TEXTURE! DARK SPOTS! COLLAGEN PRODUCTION! The concerns seemed never-ending, and the opinions about the best products to use or methodologies to adopt even more bottomless. It felt impossible to sort through all the noise and actually settle on a good system, and my urgency to turn back the clock didn’t help matters.
For reference, my skin is dry and sensitive, easily irritated and prone to (mainly) hormonal breakouts. I suffer from hyper-pigmentation and scarring. So it has been a challenge to find products that treated these disparate concerns effectively, all while trying my best to remain cruelty-free (CF) and irritant-free (although imperfectly so). But <knock on wood> I think I am finally at that point of relative balance, and am happy to share the fruits of my skincare discoveries.
Morning Routine
Depending on how quickly I need to leave the house in the morning, this part of my routine could, in all seriousness, take hours. I work from home, so I usually have the luxury to take my time and allow initial layers to absorb before adding more product. But I will vary this and other parts of my routine based on time constraints, and in general how my skin is looking or feeling that day. I believe that consistency in skincare is incredibly important, but that one also needs to “listen” to one’s skin and adjust treatments as necessary. You are treating an organ, not an academic concept on paper.
Step 1: Micellar Water
Although I don’t exactly “double cleanse” a la Kbeauty with an oil cleanser, I always pre-clean my face with micellar water before doing a proper cleansing. I tend to start the day with skin that is still caked with hydrators and oils from the night before, and want my skin to be as clear of these layers as possible before washing.
In general, micellar water is one of those superhero products I cannot live without. It is such a versatile product with myriad uses in my routine: as first-step cleanser, as a makeup remover, as a toner, as a light hydrator or refresher, as a substitute for “cleansing” during sweaty summer days or after the gym so I avoid over-washing my face.  My preferred micellar waters at the moment are the Yes to Cotton Micellar Cleansing Water (Cruelty-Free CF) and the Garnier SkinActive Micellar Cleansing Water for Sensitive Skin. They both do a good job of clearing any residue without drying my skin or annoying me with distracting fragrances.

Step 2: Cleanser
A no-brainer step, but one I try to do as sparingly as possible. I think over-cleansing can be as much a problem as not washing your face enough, so I try to use gentle products that won’t strip my skin. My HOLY GRAIL OF ALL TIME cleanser I have been using for over a decade is Philosophy Purity Made Simple. This milky cleanser does such a great job of breaking down dirt and leftover makeup while still keeping my skin smooth and supple. For a long time, it was the only cleanser that did not cause an irritated reaction or result in more breakouts. But recently I have found a new cleansing love: Glossier’s Milky Jelly Cleanser (CF). Like Purity Made Simple, the Glossier face wash is extremely gentle and leaves my skin feeling soft and clean in a non-screechy way.

Step 3: Toner
Toner was always a step that seemed unnecessary until I learned how necessary it was. In the past, toner was important for restoring the ph of your skin after cleansing, but most face washes no longer affect ph dramatically. Nevertheless, toner is important for restoring hydration balance to your skin after cleansing, and can provide an infusion of good-for-you ingredients like anti-oxidants. I like to user toner to make sure my skin doesn’t dry out after washing, because I am still many steps away from applying my main moisturizer.
During the day, my preferred toner is Lush Eau Roma Water (CF). I love the spray bottle application and the feeling of the light mist on my skin. This is also a product that is a staple in my gym bag, because it provides hydration to my sweaty skin without my having to use thick creams.
Step 4a: Vitamin C
Along with retinol, peptides, niacinamide and exfoliating acids, vitamin C is one of my Top 5 best anti-aging skincare ingredients. It’s an important step for the prevention and correction I want to achieve for my skin, but it can also be a difficult ingredient to incorporate correctly or find the right version. There is plenty of research available regarding the best type of vitamin C to use, how to use it, how to layer it, how to store it, how to keep it stable, etc. – research that, while helpful, can also be overwhelming.
My vitamin C product of choice is Drunk Elephant’s C-Firma Day Serum (CF) for the concentration and type of vitamin C it provides (15% L-Ascorbic Acid). It is also a more hydrating way of delivering vitamin C to my skin, contains other good-for-you ingredients, and comes in a nice, opaque pump bottle. Nevertheless, I still need to be careful how I use this product. I have read, mostly on Asian Beauty blogs, about the need to apply vitamin C directly to clean, dry skin, and how one can layer exfoliating acids over top. However, my skin cannot handle this application; I choose instead to layer the C-Firma Day Serum AFTER I apply toner, and I can only use it a few days a week. I am sure to slather on the SPF afterwards, and save the exfoliating acids for my evening routine. I keep this serum in my fridge to extend its shelf life – it will always smell like turkey cutlets though, no matter how chilled!
Step 4b: Essence
Ah, this is might be my absolute favorite step in my routine! I decided to incorporate an essence into my skincare routine after 1) reading so many Kbeauty skincare blogs; and 2) finding that I needed an additional hydrating step during the day. I wanted to achieve this extra level of hydration without incorporating heavier, fattier creams; I just needed an infusion of water-light hydration. Basically, I wanted the feeling of a sheet mask without having to buy a kajillion sheet masks.
I found this dream product with the Blithe 5 Energy Roots Vital Treatment Essence (for Hydration) (CF). Blithe, a Korean beauty and skincare company, is one of my favorite current brands, and I am very tempted to try their entire line of multi-tasking skincare products. I will apply this essence as a step in between toner and serum. It is one of the most versatile products I own: I use it an essence; as a kind of splash hydrator immediately after showering when my pores are nicely steamed; as a pre-gym moisturizer; and as a makeshift face-mask using pieces of cotton. It is also great for preparing my skin to receive additional layers of serums or creams. I am excited to try the version for lifting next!
Step 5: Serum
Another hydration step in my routine, I like to use a serum to deliver additional anti-aging ingredients to my skin and add moisture on the days I need the help. My current go-to is Drunk Elephant’s B-Hydra Intensive Hydration Gel (CR), which I like for its medley of ingredients (including hyaluronic acid and vitamin B5) and gel-like texture. It is advertised as a moisturizer for oily skin, but I could never use it as a stand-alone moisturizer. For me, it works as a serum or as a way to infuse other products with additional hydration. And while I enjoy the ingredients it contains, I do find the finish slightly mattifying and more drying than I would prefer. So once the bottle is used up, I will test Glossier Super Bounce (CF) or Arcona Hydrating Serum (CF), both of which are similar concept, hyaluronic acid serums. I apply my hydrating serum either after the Blithe essence or the C-Firma Day Serum.

Step 6: Moisturizer, Oils and Boosters
This is the step where I feel like all the fun, good work of skincare can happen. My day cream is one of the only things I will change in my routine between seasons. In the winter, I want to go as thick and fatty with my moisturizer as possible. My favorite winter moisturizer is Lush Celestial (CF) since it is incredibly nourishing and kind to sensitive skin. Because this cream does not contain any anti-oxidants or other anti-aging ingredients, however, I like to boost it with a beauty oil. My two favorite oils for this step are the Cover FX C + Lemongrass Custom Infusion Drops (CF) (when I do not use another vitamin C product) and Nude Skincare ProGenius Rescue Oil (CF) (which has been discontinued in the US sadly, boo!). The Cover FX C + Lemongrass is my preferred oil to apply before foundation, because this little vile of goodness will transform your complexion makeup into gorgeous sunshiney radiance.

In the summer, I opt for a light, more gel-like day moisturizer. Like the essence, I am looking for water-based hydration rather than anything too thick and creamy. Korean skincare is a great place to find these types of moisturizers, my favorites being Etude House Moistfull Collagen Water Jelly Cream, Missha Super Aqua Ultra Waterfull Clear Cream and Belif The True Cream Aqua Bomb (CF), which smells delightfully of lemon-lime soda!
Step 7: SPF
Perhaps THE most important step of any skincare routine. I really wish I had understood the importance of sunscreen for more than beach sunburn protection at a younger age. Not just a preventative measure against skin cancer, SPF also protects against photo-aging, which means all these fancy, anti-oxidant charged serums and creams are worthless if not used with sunscreen.
I prefer to use mineral/physical SPFs, i.e., those that contain zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, of at least 30 all-year round (between 30-40 SPF for the winter, and closer to 50 for summer months). Most of my sunscreens are combo SPF and moisturizer, so there are times I will only use my sunscreen as my main moisturizer. I cycle through a variety of sunscreens, some heavier and better suited for drier months, some oil-free for summertime, and some tinted to use in place of foundation. My current stable includes Paula’s Choice Skin Recovery Daily Moisturizing Lotion SPF 30 (CF) (perhaps my favorite due to its elegant, non-greasy finish and also best for layering over a regular moisturizer), Mineral Fusion SPF 40 Facial Moisturizer (CF)  (a greasier but higher-protection sunscreen; best for use on its own when I don’t have time to layer) and Exuviance Sheer Daily Protector SPF 50 (CF) (tinted so it’s a nice option for travel or light-makeup days). I am still searching for the best oil-free physical SPF, and I plan to test CeraVe SPF 50 Sunscreen Face Lotion (CF) this summer.

Step 8: Eye Cream
Sigh. Eye creams are incredibly frustrating to me, because I have yet to find a magical product that has any concrete effect. I think my expectations are just too high, because my under-eyes are the source of my greatest anti-aging concerns. I blame all that silly smiling and laughing I did in my youth! I should have been far more taciturn and humorless!
Just kidding of course, but I do have lines to show for all those good times. So far, the best eye creams I have tried are mostly good at moisturizing and not fine-line improvement. But as far as hydration, I do have some favorites. In the mornings, I like to use a light eye cream or even just eye serum, such as Alpha Skincare Nourishing Eye Cream (CF) (a great choice for ingredients like vitamin C and hyaluronic acid) and CSI Vivid Eyes Cucumber Eye Cream (CF). I apply by very gently dabbing (either with my middle or ring finger) and always follow with sunscreen in the daytime.

A step I haven’t mentioned is my prescription acne medication. Truth is, I am not always sure the best way to fit in this step, given the variety of toners, serums and creams I use. Lately, I have been choosing to use this medication sparingly on spots of distress. I will skip my acne cream on the days I use the vitamin C serum because my skin would dry out too much. I like to apply it after the toner and essence steps, but before serum and moisturizer. Since the medication creates a bit of a barrier on my skin, I need to make sure it is fully dried before applying thicker products on top. This is the forever struggle behind layering skincare!
Lauren here… (You know, the other one.) This is just Part 1! We’ll give you some time to digest all of this info before we move into Part 2 next week which will cover Loren’s Night Routine! And there may or may not be a Part 3.
