#I love the candy store trio so much

[scarlett-ink]

Artfight attack on @suntimeswolliw and their AMAZING candy store au (seriously anytime someone gives me candy I think of these three, the brain rot is real)

Speed art below because I really like how this turned out (and after years of having an old iPad that wouldn’t export speed arts properly I forgot how fun they are to watch back now that I have one that isn’t on its last legs)

▶ COCOONED — one of those lazy mornings when you wake up trapped in a tangle of hands and legs.

𝙇𝙊𝙑𝙀 𝙈𝙀𝘿𝙇𝙀𝙔 | series masterlist

Taking care of your friends came easy for you. You were always like this, affectionate and protective. It was a way of showing love, through those subtle acts of tenderness and both Satoru and Suguru always thanked you for it, despite occasional teasing from their side. They were grateful for your selfless and kindhearted nature, just as you were grateful for the boundless protection you were granted ever since you got to know them. Any bully you ever stumbled upon quickly turned tail when met with the sight of your two guardians – always taller than others, always stronger and very ready to resolve issues (in more or less civilized ways).

It wasn’t a surprise that living together brought you even closer than before. It became a routine for you to help Satoru with his eyedrops first thing in the morning – because the boy has eyes of an angel but needs to protect them from harsh sunlight and environment. Then, you always make sure that a jar of Suguru’s favorite candy is full for him, so that he can pop one right after he takes his daily medicine – the one that he swears tastes like a rug somebody used to wipe up shit and vomit. They, on the other hand, never fail to help you at home or bring you sweets from the store.

One thing you were slightly uncertain about at the beginning of the one-bedroom journey was sleeping with them. You wondered if one day you’ll wake up to a black eye because of some random muscle twitch of either of them or they’ll squish you in the middle of the bed because of course you slept between them, but none of those things happened and it’s been months already. What took place, on the other hand, was evolvement of your friendship to a much more touchy one. It always came natural to you three to cuddle; you never minded their hands on your waist or legs and they never complained about you draping over them, but in one bed, it became much more intense. A progression of friendly intimacy that all three of you grew to love. A comfortable tangle of bodies that became a safe space to you and the boys, something that happened naturally and you wouldn’t have it any other way. And they wouldn’t change it either, but–

“Satoruu–! Suguuu–”

–but there were mornings like this one. You woke up trapped in a death grip of both boys, stuck against Suguru’s muscular chest and with Satoru’s strong arm wrapped around you. The white-haired head was nuzzled against your shoulder blades and as you tried to loosen up the cocoon, you ended up twisting your upper body unnaturally while your legs stayed lodged between four, much larger male ones. Your butt was pressed against Gojo’s stomach and his hand was resting below your ribs, long gone underneath the fabric of your stolen t-shirt. Long, black hair was tickling your face whenever you tried to move away from brunette’s bare pecks. Immobilized and resigned, you let out a deep exhale.

Thanks god it’s Sunday and you have nowhere to be – otherwise you’d be very late, as none of your friends seemed to be bothered by the sound of your voice calling them.

“Get back to sleep,” Toru mumbled sleepily against your back and somehow pulled you even closer to his chest and you could tell that as soon as he finished speaking, he was back in his slumber. His muffled voice did something to Suguru though, because the man hummed lowly, a sound akin to a purr. You felt his lips pressing to the top of your head and he was gone too, with his large hand resting on your hip and his bicep underneath your cheek. Helpless and surrendered, you tweaked your position to get comfortable and allowed your eyelids to drop, slowly succumbing back into the dreamland.

-`♡´- MASTERLIST -`♡´- 

Xavier

Your relationship with Xavier could be called ideal, if not for one nuance.

His colleague, who takes up much of his attention.

There were times when he'd come home and talk about her with such excitement that you'd start to feel like a third wheel. But usually afterwards Xavier would apologize and say that no matter how strong his colleague was, you would still be the best for him.

And you'd like to believe that. Until he forgot about dinner with you because of her.

You've planned a perfect evening and cooked everything he loved so much, knowing how tired he might come back after a mission. Only for him to never show up this evening.

You've been waiting, and waiting, and waiting. Feeling how your heart was breaking even more with each passing minute. Maybe something bad had happened? Maybe he was hurt?

You texted him, only to get back, "Don't worry, I'm fine, my colleague just invited me to the cafe after our mission."

No apologies, no regrets. It seems that he just forgot about you and your plans together.

For a while you were silently sitting in your living room, staring at the phone screen. It was hard to describe all these feelings that were bubbling up inside you. Jealousy, anger. You didn't even bother to remind him about your dinner together and just put all the dishes away in the fridge.

Since when did she become more important than you?

Zayne

You always knew about Zayne's childhood friend. But you couldn't even imagine that she would make you feel so unwanted.

You had plans for today while your lover had the day off. As a cardiac surgeon, Zayne was busy most of the time and would come home late, completely exhausted. Of course, you wanted to spend every free day with him.

Except for one thing.

His childhood friend constantly overshadowed you. Well, you could understand why that was happening. After all, their friendship (or was it more than that already?) had been going on for years, and you couldn't stop Zayne from seeing her.

But…

Sitting alone in the restaurant, at the table you'd booked together, you barely held back tears as you stared at the message marked 'unread'.

When Zayne didn't appear in time, you were surprised. He was always so punctual, what was wrong this time?

But when you asked him where he was, he replied, "Sorry, she asked me to visit an old candy store with her, I'll be back in a few hours," and you realized he'd completely forgotten about you.

And your last message went unread.

"Zayne, but we made a reservation for today."

You sat alone for so long that people started to squint in your direction. The only option was to get up and leave the restaurant before your heart was completely shattered.

And so you did.

Rafayel

Usually Rafayel's studio was always open for you, so you could come to see him anytime.

But as it turned out, you weren't the only one he welcomed with open arms, day or night.

Today was your day off and you were planning to visit Rafayel so you could help him with something in his studio. He asked you to come in the first place. Usually that meant he just wanted to see you and was looking for any excuse, even the silliest one.

But instead you were met with a locked gate.

At first you thought it was just another joke, that Rafayel would come out and let you in, yet some time passed, and you continued to stand there alone. You tried to call him, but it was unsuccessful. No matter how long you waited, no one answered.

Finally you decided to call Thomas to ask him if something important had happened. Maybe Rafayel once again forgot about his own exhibition and had left in a hurry.

But it turned out you were the only one who had been forgotten.

"He said he was going to buy new paints with his bodyguard," Thomas explained. "Or something like that. Better not wait for him until evening, he's unlikely to be back before that time."

Devastated, you stood there for a while longer, thinking about his 'Ms. Bodyguard' who was spending more and more time with your beloved. It wasn't the first she took him away from you.

But this was the last straw.

You turned around, heading back home and desperately holding back tears.

It wasn't fair.

TRICK OR TREAT - gojo satoru

summary: gojo takes halloween very seriously to the point where he competes against his neighbour for best decorated house in the neighbourhood.

warnings: fluff, married!au, gojo is a bit extra in this, halloween ends when i say so! petty gojo, the trio would definitely go as the plastics, gojo beefing kids, i miss him

if there’s one thing gojo satoru doesn’t play about it’s the holidays. particularly halloween.

he’d been dragging you out for the past month to different stores for decorations in order to transform your home into a terrifying haunted house. he’d brought out all sorts of candy that he hid around the garden for the annual scavenger hunt that the neighbourhood kids often enjoyed doing. to say he didn’t enjoy halloween was an understatement—he loved it and took pride in it.

“don’t you think this is enough?” you asked, as you placed the last of the decorations down on the front yard. “it’s never enough honey.” he replied in a sing song voice, placing a kiss on your cheek. you grumbled in response but it was hard to stay annoyed at him considering how fine he looked in his costume as gomez addams, even temporarily dyeing his hair black to commit to the look.

“take a picture, it’ll last longer.” he smirked, before doing various poses which made you giggle. “I don’t think i wanna remember that.” you retorted but your comment fell on deaf ears as satoru was once again butting heads with your next door neighbour mr yamaguchi. you were cordial with the yamaguchi’s and had been invited back to their place for dinner many times unlike satoru who had been invited once and never again.

it’s probably because of his ongoing pissing contest with mr yamaguchi, who like satoru, takes much pride in decorating and the holidays. halloween is a more of a contest than a holiday for them both as they go all out with the lights, decorations and candy as they try to win the bragging rights for ‘best decorated house’. which often leaves these grown men (mainly satoru) to engage in childish and petty antics like stealing decorations, bursting inflatables and defacing pumpkins.

satoru stalks back to the house with a annoyed look on his face, he rests his head on your shoulder letting out a deep breath. “can you believe that he’s hiring actors for his haunted house? that haunted house thing was my idea first and two—thats so exploitative! depriving these actors from experiencing halloween joy, what a cruel world we live in.” he sighed dramatically looking over at the lawn. you’re barely listening, focusing on how cute he looks when he’s angry.

“babe you’re not even listening to me.” he whines burying his head into your chest. “i am!” you protest in response rubbing his back soothingly. “im sorry that he stole your idea that has totally been done before.” you say in a comforting tone, trying not burst into a fit of giggles.“well no one was doing haunted houses before we arrived anyways! so he totally stole my idea!” he continued still pissed at the whole ordeal.

“satoru, honey, you can’t call his idea exploitative when you’re literally paying your students to do the same thing.” you countered brushing the stray hairs away from his face, satoru frowned knowing you had a point but still continued his defence. “megumi, yuji and nobara volunteered their sweet and precious time to help their old sensei out. i didn’t have to bribe them to help me.” he said matter-of-factly denying your claims. you folded your arms giving him a look that told him that you didn’t believe him at all.

he raised his arms as if to surrender. “alright you got me. i had to resort to bribery to get them to help me. i didn’t want to deal with the mean teens this year.” he pouted crossing his arms. “it’s no fun scaring kids who call you an ‘overgrown furby’ or a ‘jack frost reject’.” you let out a small laugh that is quickly shut down by satoru’s glare. “is that why you wanted us to go as gomez and morticia this year?” you asked quickly changing the subject.

“maybe,” he replied with a mischievous twinkle in his eye. “i knew you’d make a fine morticia and i was right.” he takes your hand and twirls you around slowly taking in how gorgeous you look, he still looks at you with the same twinkle in his eyes from when you first met, making you giddy. “can’t believe i married the finest woman in the world.” he smiled softly before pulling you into a passionate kiss. the loud blare of a car horn made you two jump. “oi lovebirds, do you want our help or not!” nobara yelled out from the car.

she stepped out the car a few seconds later with yuji and megumi in tow, all dressed in pink. its clear that they had better places to be than here right now. evident from the bits and pieces you picked up from megumi’s mumbling about ‘missing the party of the year’ and this being a ‘complete waste of time’, you kinda felt sorry for him but you knew that no one was safe from being roped into your husband’s schemes.

“from the all pink outfits im guessing mean girls?” you smiled taking in their outfits. nobara beamed pulling yuji and megumi together. “im regina, yuji’s karen and megumi is gretchen.” apart from megumi’s usual sullen expression that was more prominent after having to wear a shitty party city wig and a thin crop top—a testament to how much gojo spoiled him, you couldn’t deny they all looked adorable.

you gave them a sympathetic smile, as satoru whisked them away to the garden to help them prepare for the scaring they were going to do later. in the midst of your husband’s usual antics you found it adorable how he put so much thought and energy into halloween to make it an enjoyable experience for you both as well as the neighbourhood

—

halloween night was underway and it was a success, satoru basked in the praise about the decor from the other neighbours and passer-by’s who were in the area, you also received many compliments for your costume. you resigned yourself to trick or treat duty partly because of the cute and creative costumes you got to see every time you opened the door and the fact that satoru brought out his best candy only for halloween that you could snack on.

the doorbell rang again whilst you were refilling the bucket of candy. you ran to open the door it was kei mr yamaguchi’s son aka the son of the enemy. “trick or treat!” he smiled waving his bucket in front of you. he looked adorable in his spiderman costume and thanked you as you filled his bucket with extra candy. you heard a loud gasp from behind you, you let out a sigh as it came from none other than your husband.

“so you’re fraternising with the enemy now?” he said feigning shock. you chuckled at his question, not thinking he’d stoop so low that he’d beef with a five year old. “‘toru he is five years old, i don’t think he has any hidden agenda against you.” you looked at kei who seemed unaffected by the conversation. he looked more interested in the screams coming from the haunted house garden. “can i go into the haunted house now?” he asked clearly not wanting to be stuck in this conversation for any longer.

“of course sweetie, in fact satoru will take you!” your husband stopped mid chew of his candy, opening his mouth to protest but the look on your face made it clear it wasn’t up for any discussion. “c’mon little man let’s go.” he sighed before leading kei into the garden, sticking his tongue out at you as he walked past.

—

as the night drew to a close, you slumped down against the kitchen island, as the last of the kids left the house. gojo walked in with a smile on his face, “how was it?” you asked with a tired smile as he bent down to give you a kiss on the top of your head. “i’ve practically won halloween this year. mr yamaguchi ain’t got nothing on me!” he says proudly before stifling a yawn.

“i think we should celebrate by calling it a night.” you chuckle looking at his weary expression. he’s ditched the contacts and reverted back to his blindfold, it seems that even the strongest needs to recuperate sometimes after engaging in a month long battle with his neighbour. you yelp as he uses the last remainder of his strength to carry you to the bedroom, bridal style.

“is it bad that im already thinking about what we’re gonna do for christmas?” he whispers in your ear, holding you close against him. on most nights you’d entertain his thoughts but after today’s events you’re too tired to even give him a coherent reply. “satoru it is three am go to sleep.” you groan annoyedly to which he chuckles in response. “just messing with ya babe, goodnight.” he says softly before turning off the lamp.

later whilst he dozes off, you silently thank whoever’s above that you’ve managed to survive the worst holiday of the year before closing your eyes for the night.

Secrets In The Street

Warnings: none

Prompt: “basically y/n is a poor girl on the streets and pickpockets/shoplifts to survive, and she does that to willy but he’s super kind to her instead of telling the police on her. Then they fall in love.” - @riordanness (THANK YOU!)

“Come back here you!” A woman’s voice yelled from behind, as you sprint down an alley, a bright, crisp apple in hand from her cart.

You weren’t a runner, not in the slightest, so being chased by a woman for having an apple -well, stealing an apple- wasn’t on your list of things to today. You couldn’t help it, you were hungry. The woman wasn’t even around, you had no clue how she saw you.

You hear the woman groan from behind and turn around just in time to see her give up and walk away. Who knows some other person on the streets could’ve stolen more of her produce.

“Oh well, at least it’s something,” you muttered as you trailed along the darkening alley, holding it carefully so you can keep it safe for later. Walking in the direction towards the bench you spent most nights.

It was obviously nothing special, but no one dared to take your bench. You had a raggedy blanket that you stole from someone a while ago. A little bag with a few things of clothes you found that others had gotten rid of, and that was it.

You had heard of Mrs. Scrubitt's boardinghouse when you first arrived, but initially said no when Bleacher had came up to you. He came to your bench many times, and he eventually stopped insisting after many denials. After everything you had heard through the chain of the Galeries Gourmet, you were glad you hadn’t taken his offer though. At least there was a chance of something out here, better than being stuck in a laundry house for twenty-something years.

Nothing new ever happened in the Gourmet, the same Chocolate Cartel shooing everyone away, you had heard of one man getting through though. Willy Wonka, you had heard of his name. Apparently some magic chocolates? Even though the idea seems preposterous, you were intrigued. You, however, had heard from the gossip that his looks had caught the attention of many along the streets too. So, it apparently wasn’t only the chocolate that had gotten people interested.

Carefully hiding your apple, you started your walk towards the way of the Gourmet, wanting to investigate this new Wonka chocolate yourself.

“It’s certainly grand,” you say, as you walk into the store with the velvety magenta curtains, with a chocolate-looking tree as the centerpiece of the store, “I’m impressed.”

“Hi, I’ve never seen you around here,” a man with a can walked up to you, a top hat on his head, wearing a pleasant smile on his face.

“My name is y/n, y/n l/n, I don’t hang around the Galerie Gourmet much, not really my place of adventure.” You muttered as you look at all of the hanging candy around you, children brushing past you, trying to reach for different sweets.

The man nods his head, as he takes in your appearance, “I get it, I lived on a boat for seven years. My name is Willy, Willy Wonka”

You were not expecting that, he lived on a boat for a while, this interesting looking man who owned this place. You tried to send a brief smile in his direction, “so you’re the one who I heard sent the chocolate-trio to jail, I’ve heard a lot about you.”

Wonka looked out the windows, to the places where the old chocolate stores resided in the Gourmet, now empty, as he quickly smirked, “well it had to be done, they were breaking the law, it was just a matter of time.”

You chuckled as you saw the man’s face beam towards a woman and small child who was excitingly grabbing a chocolate bar, “I have to go, it was nice meeting you, y/n.” Wonka said as he smoothly strides over to another family to talk to them.

“Likewise,” you whispered as he was already gone. You felt awful, you wanted to try his chocolate, people here have talked ‘it’s the best chocolate I’ve ever tasted’ many have claimed, and now you wanted a bite. How do you steal from someone who seemed so nice?

The trick to being a pickpocket though, is not getting caught, and you’ve had your own share of the situation going both ways. You quickly grab a little wrapped chocolate and pretend to exam it, glancing to make sure no one else is watching, before quickly stuffing it in your pocket.

“Hey!” A voice yelled, you turned to see if anyone was there, and was met with a small, orange man? You had never seen anyone, if it was a human at all, like it.

“Lofty?” You heard Wonka yell as he came running towards the area your standing in. Bolting quickly, you dodge the running kids and chasing parents, as you try to weave your way to the exit. Just about as you were at the doors, a cane came in front of your middle, stopping your motions rather quickly, “and what do you think you’re doing?” Willy asked, you were close, so close.

“Nothing, I don’t know what that man was talking about, I don’t have anything I promise.” You say as you did a little circle to prove your innocence.

“Why don’t I believe you?” He asked, as an audience formed around you two.

“I don’t know, I didn’t steal anything, Mr. Wonka, I assure you that.” You muttered, wishing everyone would ignore you two, you just wanted to try his chocolate.

“Come with me y/n, we can talk back here.” Wonka guided you towards a room in the back, something that looked like an office of sorts, “I know you took a piece of chocolate.” He sat down in his chair, prompting you to sit down on the one opposite the desk.

You felt defeated, you hadn’t ever actually gotten caught by someone, “I’m sorry.”

Willy quirked his brow as he stared at you across the desk, “so you admit it? Surprised, honestly, I didn’t think you would.”

At that you got upset, “listen I might’ve tried to take chocolate, but I’ve heard everyone talk. People say it’s the best chocolate they’ve ever had. I’ve only had apples or other stolen things to eat for a year and a half. The chocolate cartel knew me well, they would stop me at the door cause they knew I couldn’t pay for it. So do it, call the new chief of police, at least in jail I’ll have a bed.”

Willy stood and put his hands on the desk examining you, transferring his weight, “no.”

“I’m sorry, no?” You were shocked, he caught you stealing and isn’t going to call you in?

“No, there’s something about you. You intrigued me when I first saw you walk in. I’m not going to call the new chief of police. I’m actually going to give you twenty silver sovereigns.” Willy said as he opened the drawer with the money inside of it.

Flabbergasted, shocked, surprised, there weren’t any other words to describe it. You were stealing from him, and now he was giving you money? What kind of man is this? Well…a cute one, but that’s besides the point.

“I can see your shock, my mom raised me well before she passed. If you want to steal a small piece of chocolate, you must be desperate, please take it.” Willy said handing you the sovereigns, a pink flush presenting high upon his cheeks.

“Of all the times to be caught,” you whispered, glancing up in time to seem him removing his coat and hat, “at least it was by someone nice.” A faint blush forming on your cheeks as well.

Willy smiled as he walked around in front of you, “I don’t want you sleeping wherever you are, you can work here, there’s an extra room, we could put a bed in there or something.”

“I can’t believe you’re offering me anything, you could’ve had me arrested.” You told him, examining his brunette curls framing his face for the first time.

“I was taught to help someone in need, and you seem like a good person, you just need a little help. No shame in that, I was caught by Scrubitt and Bleacher when I first arrived. I needed help too. Look at this place, I have more than enough sovereigns to help you out right now.” Willy whispered inching closer to you, as he held out his hand.

Your eyes welled up with tears, no one had been this kind to you in a while, “you have no clue how much this means to me.”

“Well, then you’ll just have to stay here until I know.” Wonka smiled as he leaned in to press his lips to yours.

Let’s just say, you never had to worry about sovereigns or spend another night on that bench ever again.

Halloween Special: Part 1

Word Count: 1,256

Seeing how NRC took Halloween to an extreme, seriously who builds an actual pirate ship? It reminded Rollo of how Fleur City put so much love into the festival. Yet here, all these beautiful decorations were just an excuse to try and one up other dorms. Rollo hid his scowl behind his handkerchief as he followed Yuu and Grim around the school. Since he had joined, Crowley had declared Ramshackle an official dorm and had tasked the trio with finding inspiration for their dorm's costumes.

Since the other dorms had claimed the more notable monster costumes, it left them with not many options. Finally, their last stop to the mirror room for some help hadn't exactly filled them with hope.

"Sorry, Potato." Vil said. "I wish I could help you with this. But... If you find what you want, I'd be more than willing to help you get what's needed."

Yuu sighed. "Thanks Vil."

The trio had left dejected and went back to Ramshackle. They spent hours trying to brainstorm ideas, but each was met with a negative or an issue from one of them.

"This sucks." Yuu nibbled on a piece of chocolate.

Rollo scribbled through another idea. "Perhaps we could take something from your world?"

"They're too closely linked in terms of monsters to try and find one."

Rollo looks over to see Grim rifling through the candy with his head buried in the bowl, he pulls him out of it and the feline throws a fit.

"Why not go as a couple’s costume?" Grim huffs and hangs in Rollo's grip.

"They're cheesy and not scary." Yuu threw the wrapper away. "As well as not matching the spirit of Halloween."

Rollo sets Grim down on the couch and hands him a lollipop so he won't have to see him sulking. Grim happily tears into it before speaking again.

"Hey, you recognized Horns outfit. Why not pick something like that?"

"A Jiangshi?"

Grim nods. "Yeah, except, you know." He sucks on the treat. "Make it from your language... I forgot what it's called."

"Japanese?" Yuu crosses her arms and raises an eyebrow. "You're asking me to pick a Japanese mon-" She pauses as she runs the idea through her head. "Yokai... We could be Yokai!" Yuu pulls Grim from the couch and spins him around in a circle. "Grimmy! I could kiss you right now!"

"Nya?! Let me go! You're making me dizzy!"

"I'll be back boys!" She tosses the feline behind her and Rollo scrambles to catch him as she bolts out the door.

"...What exactly just happened?" Rollo blinks in confusion and looks down at the dizzy direbeast in his arms.

Yuu returns later in the evening and announces her presence... by slamming open the door. Rollo nearly spills his tea over himself as she stops in front. She slams her hands down on the arm rests of the chair he's sitting in, officially blocking him in. Rollo sets aside his cup and book and stares at her.

"...Yes?"

"You're good at potions, right?"

"I am..."

"Good. I need a timed transformation potion."

"For our costumes, I presume?"

She nods. "I need them to be fox potions though. I have everything coming in and that's the last thing I need. Can you do it for me?"

If Rollo wasn't as weak as he was to her, he probably would've said no, but he is curious as to what she has in store.

"I can."

"Yes!" She hugs him and departs the dorm again.

He is once again left baffled as to what just happened. He spends a few hours finding the ingredients and mixing together what's needed. Rollo gives the brew a few more stirs before a poof of smoke confirms that it's ready.

"Here." He pours the mixture into a sample cup and hands it to her.

"Oh no, no, no, my dear Rolls." Yuu smiles and pushes the cup towards him as she gets her own. "We both have to drink it."

"What?" He looks down at the cup and then back at her. "Why must I drink it as well?"

"For. The. Costume." Her voice lowered in pitch as she stared hard at him. "Now, bottoms up."

Rollo sighs, says a quick prayer to the Righteous Judge, and drinks with Yuu following right behind him. Both grimace at the taste and he feels the change instantly. His sense of smell became sharper, his hearing more enhanced, and the base of his spine throbbed in pain.

Rollo shakes his head. "Disgusting." He opens his eyes to look at Yuu. "Did it-" He pauses, seeing two black fluffy triangle shaped ears on top of her head. "Oh."

Yuu feels on top of her head and a smile appears on her face. "Yes!" She spins around and Rollo sees the black fluffy tail attached to her. "It worked! And your ears are gray, but where's your tail?"

Rollo reaches up to touch his ears, causing them to flick in the process. "So, this should be-Yuu!?"

Yuu wrapped her arms around his waist and peered behind him. "Oh, it's under your shirt. Here, let me..." She tugs at it, freeing the shirt from the confinements of his pants and setting the fluffy appendage loose. "There! Better?"

Rollo's ears flatten and a blush appears on his face. He's quick to hide it behind his handkerchief before she notices. "Y-Yes, thank you."

Yuu’s tail wags as she jumps around in glee before departing from the room in a flurry. With a sigh, Rollo contains what remains of the potion for the event. A week after that incident, as the Ramshackle residents are decorating for the upcoming event, Yuu kicks the dorm in and she has a bundle of clothing.

“Vil and Crewel came through~”

“Are those the outfits?” Rollo asked as he set aside the pumpkins.

“Yeah.” She shoved the clothing at him. “I need you to try this on.”

“...Now?” He fumbled to hold it before it hit the floor.

“Now.”

Rollo stared at her before sighing and walking into the bathroom to try on the costume. He disrobed quickly and put on the costume, as well as everything fit... he had trouble with the obi. Before Rollo could ask for help, a knock at the door came.

“Rolls? Do you need help?”

“Yes, please.”

She opened the door and slipped in, but paused as she stared at the outfit.

“Oh, it’s so good~”

“Love, please.”

“Sorry, sorry!” She turns him around and expertly ties the obi and fixes anything else out of place. “There.”

“Thank you.” He raises the sleeves and watches as they pool at his elbows. “Hmmm, it’s too loose for my liking.”

“I didn't want everything to be too tight, cause it'll get uncomfortable real fast.” She clasped her hands together. “Alright, everything is good to go for the event. It's time we shine for a chance.”

Rollo gave a soft smile as he watched her dance out of the bathroom and went to try on her own outfit. He turned towards the mirror and took in the full outfit.

“...They did an amazing job and tomorrow, everyone will see this in all its glory.”

Gojo-sensei x student reader ft. the first-years

"Alright, who wants to join me to try out a new dessert cafe?" Gojo announced as he entered the common room with his signature grin.

Y/N's eyes lit up immediately. "Count me in, Gojo-sensei!"

Yuji looked up from his spot on the couch, thinking about his initial plans. "Well, I was going to help Nobara with her shopping, but... yeah, I'll come. Better than carrying all her bags."

Nobara, overhearing, walked over with a raised eyebrow. "Dessert cafe, huh? As tempting as that sounds, I already have plans to hit the shops. Fushiguro, you still coming with me, right?"

Megumi sighed, already resigned to his fate. "I'd rather deal with curses than go shopping, but fine."

Nobara shot Yuji a playful glare. "You're ditching me for desserts? Some friend you are."

Yuji grinned sheepishly. "Sorry, Nobara, but I can't pass up on this."

Gojo clapped his hands together. "Excellent! Nobara and Megumi have their plans, so it’s just us. We’ll have a blast!"

The trio arrived at the dessert cafe, its colourful decor and sweet aromas instantly making Y/N and Gojo feel giddy. They ordered an array of desserts—cakes, pastries, and ice creams—enough to satisfy their shared sweet tooth.

Gojo took a bite of his towering parfait and sighed contentedly. "Isn't this the best, Y/N?"

Y/N nodded enthusiastically, savouring a spoonful of chocolate mousse. "Absolutely, Gojo-sensei. This place is amazing!"

Yuji, enjoying a generous slice of strawberry cheesecake, chuckled. "I gotta admit, this was a great idea. So much better than shopping."

As they enjoyed their treats, Y/N glanced at Gojo curiously. "Gojo-sensei, I've always wondered—why do you have such a sweet tooth?"

Gojo paused, a thoughtful look crossing his face. "You know, it's something that started when I was young. I started eating sweets to stimulate my brain. The sugar helped keep me alert and sharp. Over time, I just developed a taste for them."

Y/N smiled, feeling a sense of connection. "That makes sense. For me, I love sweets because my parents used them to get me to train. I hated training, but they promised me dessert after every session. It worked every single time."

Gojo laughed warmly. "Smart parents. And now you're here, a jujutsu sorcerer with a sweet tooth like me."

As they continued to enjoy their treats, the conversation flowed easily. Gojo shared funny stories from his past missions, Yuji talked about his training progress, and Y/N, feeling comfortable, opened up more about their life.

"Y'know," Gojo said, leaning back in his chair, "it's nice to have moments like these. Don't you guys feel tired training and dealing with curses every single day?"

Yuji nodded. "Yeah, it’s good to take a break and just hang out."

Y/N smiled warmly, "Thanks for bringing us here, Gojo-sensei. It means a lot."

As they left the cafe, the sun beginning to set, Gojo looked at his two students with a soft smile. "We should do this more often. I hope Nobara and Megumi can join us too next time."

"Definitely," Y/N agreed, already looking forward to their next outing.

Yuji grinned. "I'm in. As long as it doesn't involve carrying shopping bags."

Gojo laughed, ruffling Yuji's hair. "Deal. Next time, we’ll find another hidden gem. Maybe even a chocolate factory tour." Gojo grinned. "Speaking of next time, how about we make today even sweeter?"

Y/N's eyes sparkled with curiosity. "What do you mean, Gojo-sensei?"

"Follow me," Gojo said with a wink.

He led them to an upscale chocolate shop just a few blocks away. The luxurious displays and rich cocoa aromas were enough to make anyone's mouth water. Gojo pulled out his black card, waving it in front of his students' faces. "Pick whatever you want, kids. It's on me."

Yuji and Y/N exchanged excited glances before diving into the selections. They filled their bags with a variety of gourmet chocolates, feeling like kids in a candy store.

As they walked out of the shop, their bags full of treats, Y/N beamed up at Gojo. "Thanks, Gojo-sensei. This has been the best day ever."

Yuji nodded in agreement. "Yeah, thanks a lot. You're the best."

Gojo smiled warmly, feeling content when his students were happy, "Anytime, you two. Anytime."

A Story of the BitterSweet boys and Listener going on a vacation to the beach,restaurants, sightseeing and enjoying their day out somewhere nice and tropical

Tropical adventures.

Tries looking up foods in the Bahama's and also candy, so sorry if it like doesn't make sense! I also had to look up tourist attractions in the Bahamas.

It was a hassle to scrape the money together but, here they were in the Bahamas enjoying the tropical breeze. Alphonse was talking about the candy he got from a concert store as Boo rubbed sunscreen on him.

"Al, did you seriously only want to come because of the candy?" Asking, Seth lifted his glasses and quirked a brow. The brunette watched as the candy loving pinkette snorted and waved him off.

"No! I also wanted to try out other stuff here! Like the food! Asking if I only came for the candy." Huffing, Alphonse turned to Boo who was now applying sunscreen on his face. Eating a piece of Guava duff Alphonse then looked at Boo.

"What's that word? Big back? Yeah that's you. Fat fuck." Laughing, Seth turned as Alphonse lightly smacked his head. The brunette snatched a piece of candy, reading the wrapper it said mamba.

Smiling Seth enjoyed the taste of strawberry, rolling the wrapper he flicked it to Alphonse. Who rolled his eyes and looked back at Boo who finished putting the sunscreen on.

"Boo, back me up here!" Whinging, Alphonse leaned om Boo as they applied sunscreen as well. The baker sighed and looked a the two men.

"Seth, we know Al's fat." Bluntly saying, making Alphonse gasp again. "But also Seth you only wanted to go sightseeing." Adding on made Seth huff.

Both watched as Boo stood up and took off their beach cover. Showing off their swimming outfit and giggled seeing their faces.

"Luckily I'm helping us have a mixture of both. Now let's go swimming!" Excitedly Boo walked to the water. The boys rushed after them and started playing in the water.

The beautiful water was amazing to see in person compared to what you saw in movies. It truly didn't do it justice as the trio took pictures together on a small camera. Boo bought it to collect memories with all three.

After swimming for a few hours the trio then went to go eat at a restaurant. There was a lovely older woman that explained the dishes and helping the three order something they'd would like. Enjoying the nice atmosphere the restaurant had the trio talked amongst themselves.

Boo showed off the pictures they took of the boys, giggling as they handed the camera over. There was many of them were Alphonse got buried under the sand with sunglasses on. Seth holding a cute sovereign that he got from a street vendor.

Even seeing pictures of earlier that day, where they went sightseeing. The Garden of the Groves was beautiful to see in person, it was very peaceful as they walked through it. There was pictures where Alphonse was looking at Boo smiling softly. For Seth he had one where his eyes were looking at the waterfall in the grove.

Both looked very handsome in the pictures and letting them know make the blush a bit. After reminiscing of the day the three finally had their food given to them.

"There is so much we need to see." Sugar said as they ate their dish. Humming at how delicious the Bahamian curry chicken was, this made the boys smile.

"Don't worry Boo, we got like a week to see everything we can." Laughing lightly, Alphonse ate his cracked conch liking how the tangy dipping sauce was.

"This is really nice, even if we don't go everywhere I'm glad we were able to go." The brunette looked at both of them, Alphonse nodded at Seth's words. Then asked for a bite of Seth's Bahamian craw-fish, the shorter man rolled his eyes and let him have a bite.

Giggling, Sugarboo then asked if Al wanted some of theirs, making the three swap bites of their food. After finishing the three went to their hotel and talked of what they were going to do tomorrow. But, even if they didn't do everything on this trip the three of them will definitely scrap money together to do this again.

This one is random

So muto x (rich) reader

Muto is hanging out with some friends and they notice that his clothes are of expensive brands and they why he’s wearing that and muto replies with “my boyfriend surprised me with a new wardrobe and he was really excited to give me it that I couldn’t say no” and it’s muto and the reader anniversary and while muto gets the reader flowers, snacks and some a card for the reader (and feels bad cause he’d barely consider those three items as a meaningful gift). The reader just pulls out like these expensive yet meaningful presents and when muto gives the reader the items thinking less cause of what the reader got him the reader is looks at the gift and is like “awww muto you shouldn’t have this is sooo sweet i love it”

Sorry this took me so long, a lot is going on in my life right now. Hope you enjoy!

Muto sighed as he hug up...another disgner shirt. Don't get him wrong he loves his boyfriend, he just wishes he wouldn't spend so much money on him. Especially since (Name) decided to buy him a new wardrobe.

Muto checked the time and grimaced. He had a gang hang out in about 10 minutes. He quickly changed and grabbed his keys and wallet, before quickly making his way outside.

While walking to the meet up, Muto was texting (Name). Talking about their date later, and how he was happy they were together for so long. Today was their 8 month anniversary, and (Name) got them a table at his family's restaurant.

When Muto arrived he saw the S-62 gang all standing around. He huffed seeing Shion arguing with Rindou, probably about something stupid. Muto raised his hand a gave a short wave, announcing his presence.

He got a nod in return, before joining them. They started walking around, cracking jokes and beating other gangs. Until Ran stopped him, before motioning to his outfit. "Mucho, not that I'm complaining but, what with the new look."

The others stopped too, staring at him noticing the new "nicer" clothing he's wearing. Muto sighs and rubbed the back of his neck. "My boyfriend surprised me with a wardrobe change. I wanted to decline but, he looked so excited and I just couldn't say no."

He sighed looking away. He's always been weak to his boyfriend. Especially the adorable smile and laugh. The others notice the soft smile on his face. Izana rolled his eyes and groaned. "Alright we get it. You're gay and love your boyfriend."

Muto whips his head around, giving Izana a heated glare. "And is that a problem?" He practically growled. The others freeze and pale. They've never seen him so angry. Izana shakes his head. "As long as he doesn't distract you from doin what you need to do."

Kakucho grabs Izana's shoulder and squeezed. "What he means to say", Kakucho squeezed Izana's shoulder tighter. "Is that, he's happy for you." Izana doesn't say anything. He's too busy trying to escape Kakucho's grip.

The others stare at the trio. Too nervous to say or do anything. Muto looks down at his phone noticing the time. "Shit-" he quickly puts his phone away. He looks around, noticing a store and quickly made his way over to it.

Shion goes to say something, but Mochi just covers his mouth. Shaking his head as if saying to not ask. When Muto exits the store, he's got a bouquet of (flowers) and a box of (candy). Along with a card, he quickly makes his way to his car. Ignoring the states on his back until he's settled in his car.

He waved at them and drives away, leaving the S-62's staring at his leaving car. They stare in disbelief. "Did that assume seriously just drive off, leaving us alone?!" Shion growls and stomped his foot. The Haitani brothers roll their eyes. Rindou makes a hand gesture to the building behind them.

"1. He grabbed flowers and candy, 2. He raced off after seeing the time. So that could only mean; he has a date and is running late, or it's his anniversary and he's running late." Ran whistles. "Either way, he's late. Hopefully his boyfriend won't be upset."

~

(Name) sighed looking at the time on his phone once more. His boyfriend is late, on today of all days. (Name) took another drink of his (drink), and looked out the window. He had asked his parents to save this exact table for tonight.

He looked down in his lap, where a box laid. Inside the box was a necklace, one that matched his own. Along with a new phone. He knows Muto needs one, since his parents refuse to buy him a new one. But the most meaningful gift, was a set of keys.

(Name) knows how much Muto's bike means to him. He also knows that Muto recently had issues with his bike. So (Name) had it fixed, by his family's personal mechanic. Now the bike was as good as new. A few more minutes passed by, before the door opened.

Showing a panting Muto, who upon seeing the sad look on (Name)'s face, felt extremely guilty. He made his way over, kissing his boyfriends temple before taking a seat. "Happy Anniversary (Name)." (Name) gave him a bright smile, placing a box on the table.

He slowly pushed the box towards Muto, and motioned for him to open the box. When opened Muto felt his heart swell. He carefully pulled out the necklace, slowly looking to the one (Name) was wearing. His face softened, he had once complimented the necklace. Since (Name) worse it so much.

Next he pulled out a phone. He chuckled, knowing the reason for the phone. "Thank you (Name). My parents mentioned this morning, about me getting a job for my new phone and to fix my-" he looked at the box confused. What was his keys doing in the box?

Muto gave his boyfriend a confused look, in return he was giving a wide grin. (Name) spoke excitedly about how he had the (Last Name) mechanic, fix his bike and how it ran like new. Muto smiled widely at his boyfriend. But then his smile fell. While (Name) always got him expensive and meaningful gifts...

He looked down at the (candy), (flowers), and the card. He couldn't afford getting (Name) such meaningful gifts. He slowly handed them to (Name) who gasped happily. "Muto you remembered my favorite flowers!" (Name) smelled the flowers before seeing (candy).

He looked at Muto happily. "You even remembered how I'm allergic to chocolate!" Then finally he saw the card. (Name) opened it slowly. Seeing how Muto expressed, how he was so happy being with him. (Name) quickly got up and ran around to the other side of the table.

Muto looked surprised. He didn't think (Name) would be so happy about his gifts. (Name) quickly gave him a tight hug, covering his face in kisses. Muto smiled softly and wrapped an arm around him. Carefully pulling (Name) isn't his lap.

"While I'm happy you like your gifts, I'm sorry they're not too good quality." (Name) gave his boyfriend a stern look and pulled his face close. "Yasuhiro Muto, I love the gifts because you actually put thought into them. I could care less about the costs. It's the meaning that matters."

He kissed his lips softly. "Besides I'd love anything from you." Muto pulled him closer giving him, a deeper much more passionate kiss. When they pulled away he placed his forehead on (Name)'s shoulder and sighed. "How did I ever get so lucky?"

(Name) giggled, rubbing his back. "That should be my line."

hey id love to request a jimmy oneshot where the (male) reader is working the midnight shift at a convenience store, and Jimmy notices them while walking by during his midnight walks nd buys a cigarette pack (only to get some attention) and just basically jimmy trying to shoot his shot with the reader !! idk if youd do this req because it's a small fandom and Jimmy (entergalactic) is voiced by timothee :)) but id hope you consider giving Entergalactic a watch and maybe write the oneshot ! also totally random but reminder to stay hydrated and drink your water 🫶

Jimmy is the cutest, thank you so much for this ask, I literally love him. I just rewatched the movie to freshen my memory for this request! Also, I couldn’t resist using this gif, can you blame me? Hope you enjoy <3

Can I get you something.

Information and warnings — x male reader, flirting, smug Jimmy, the trio being silly, awkward Jimmy trying to land pick up lines, first time meeting, fluff.

You rubbed your eyes as you opened the shop door, the familiar ringing of the bell reminding you that you’re clocked in for a 7 hour shift.

You flicked the remaining bud of your joint as you flipped the “Be back soon” sign back to “Open.”

The first thirty minutes of your shift were spent playing a cat-themed candy crush rip off while sipping a tall boy version of a Coca Cola, avoiding your duties of shop clean up and restock.

You were enjoying your silence and lack of work while still being paid, as trio of overtly intoxicated men stumbled into your convenience store.

“I’m Jabari and I’m too scared to fuck my fine ass neighbor, cause I’m scared of pussy! Wah Wah.” The tallest one announced, picking on his friend as he ripped a Monster energy out of the holder.

The one you assumed was Jabari, pushed his friend in a half joking, half fuck off way as he grabbed out two cases of beer, either taking the party home, or to another trap-house.

Yet over all of the commotion, your eyes were drawn to the last one to come in, he was scrawny with a shaved head, and seemed more airy opposed to stumbling; definitely more high than drunk.

You continued to swipe for three matching cats, occasionally looking up to see Buzzcut grabbing handfuls of roadtrip-esque snacks to satisfy his munchies. Though, you’d quickly push your head down and fumble with something on the counter to “act busy” when he’d catch your stare, which seemed to be every-time you’d look at him.

You wondered if he was staring at you in return, but hurriedly shook the idea as you remembered you worked behind the counter at a dingy convenience store; and these guys looked like big deals. ‘Selling doritos, snowballs and corn dogs wasn’t the most attractive thing to guys’ you thought as the men plopped down their items on your counter.

“Just these, man.” Jabari smiled before he continued to argue with the taller man about not piping his supposedly very attractive neighbor. You agreed with him, but kept silent as you scanned the slew of beer and midnight snacks.

“Jimmy would agree with me, he’d totally say hit it and leave it! Wouldn’t you, Jimmy?” The man announced, his sunglasses sliding down his nose, perfectly agreeing with his smug smirk.

“No! I actually would never, Ky, because I do not sleep around! I only do that once I’m settled down, which I’m not, but would like to be, you know this.” Jimmy, you knew him now as, said defensively, his head jerking to you in a gesturing manner, basically saying ‘don’t blow my cover.’

“Ohh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Very committed and very saintly; I know that about you.” Ky chuckled as he pushed his sunglasses up. “Go get your man!” He said in a hushed tone, earning an elbow to the ribs from Jimmy and grabbed a case of beer, telling Jabari to get the other, leaving Jimmy to get his bag of cheap snacks.

“I’ll be just a second, guys!” Jimmy waved his friends off as he leaned against your counter, earning a small giggle and smirk from you as you watched him begin to start his ‘‘smooth’’ flirting.

“Can I get you something?” You said after a moment of silence staring at eachother, you wouldn’t mind looking at him quietly for a few more seconds, but also wanted to talk to him and see where this went.

“Oh, you know what, I forgot to get smokes, that’s what I was missing! Can you grabbed me some camel filters, red?” He said in a shaky, nervous voice as he gave you a bashful smile.

You plucked the pack from above you, placing them infront of the both of you while a smug smile; waiting to see where he goes with this small interaction. Jimmy began to reach for his wallet, cutting his losses and sighing under his breath knowing it would be awkward to keep it going.

“On the house, you seem good for it.” You bit your cheek and leaned against the counter yourself, mirroring him and meeting him at eye level; somehow hes even more pretty this close.

Jimmy smiled and let out a breathy laugh as he looked to the side, seeing his two friends watching through the window and nodding profusely with thumbs up.

“Thank you, you don’t have to, but I’d never turn down free smokes.” Jimmy said in singy songy tone, pocketing the pack and moving slightly closer to you, staring at your lips.

“Big party tonight? What’s the celebration?” Your eyes trailing to his lips yourself, once again mirroring him, watching as he swallowed thickly at your advances. “Celebrating life, baby, always making it a party.” Jimmy said with a goofy laugh, he was sarcastic, but you knew he was the type of guy to bring the party wherever he went.

“Would love to have you join us, if you wanted to?” Jimmy swallowed thickly, looking up at you with knitted eyebrows, he was shooting his shot and looking absolutely stunning while doing it, you couldn’t turn him down if your life depended on it, but you knew you couldn’t just drop your shift for a party.

“My boss would have my ass.. any chance you’re free tomorrow afternoon? I still wanna see you.” You admitted with a soft smile, seeing Jimmy’s eyes go from pitifully sad from the start of your sentence, to being wide with joy at the end.

“Lunch? There’s this burger joint down the block, I could meet you there, or pick you up. Anything you want.” Jimmy smiled and balanced on his tippy toes with a few taps on your counter, unable to hide his excitement.

You wrote your phone number down on his receipt, along with your address with a smiley face, smirking as you slide it over to him. Jimmy launched for it and grabbed it hastily, smiling widely and began to make his way out of the store.

“Hey, what’s your name?” He said, looking back as he reached for the door handle, embarrassed for being so caught up in your looks before even asking you a basic question.

“Y/N. See you at lunch, party animal.” You giggled as you waved goodbye to him, going back on your phone, updating your friends about the cute guy asking you out.

“Later, pretty boy!” Jimmy yelled out with his arms raised, while laughing as your heard Ky and Jabari praise him for his flirting game.

The three men walked away as they slapped Jimmys back, pushed into him and cheered for him.

“Got a fucking address, number and a date, boys! We’re so fuckin in!” Jimmy screamed out into the night sky, overjoyed and slapping the receipt with a dopey smile.

Heathers Candy Store AU Pt. 2

So y'all really liked the last one and I said to myself 'I like getting validation from strangers on the internet' so here I am with another one

Things have been going amazingly for Veronica

She's making more money than ever before, enough that she can easily get a better apartment for her Betty and Martha and cover their rent as well

She loves her job, she enjoys learning how to make different kinds of candy and experimenting with new types and different ways to make them

And of course, she loves her three gfs, and they've even started planning on having her move in with them once she finishes her degree, which would allow her to write whatever she pleases and not have to worry about making enough to make ends meet

Things only get better when she gets a call from her cousin, Janis, who lives in Chicago

They were close when they were little, and as they got older they bonded over their attraction to women and struggles at school and became someone they could talk to who would actually understand what they were going through

Janis tells her that her gf, Cady, got a full ride to the same university as Veronica for mathematics, and they're going to be moving to Sherwood

Veronica is super excited, she hasn't seem Janis in person for years and is overjoyed that they're going to be close like when they were little

Janis mentions that she's gonna be doing some commission work for her art but Cady is looking for a job over there

Veronica gets the idea that she can come work for the Candy Store with her and quickly texts Chandler to ask

At first she's a little apprehensive but Veronica sends her a pic of her doing the puppy eyes and Chandler relents and agrees to hire her

After they hang up Veronica realizes that she never gave Janis the name of the store, but she figures that its fine, they'res only one candy store in the mall, Cady will find her way with no problem

Boy was she wrong

A few weeks pass, and its Cady's first day at the store, or its supposed to be

Cady is a no show and Veronica tries calling her but gets no response

Chandler is annoyed about it, Duke is indifferent and Mac is worried

They run the store for the day and when they close Veronica gets a text from Cady

She's super confused bc Veronica wasn't there and when she asked the owners didn't know a Veronica

She relays this to the Heathers and they're all confused to

Cady then asks does she not work at "Regina's Confectionary" (very unoriginal ik, I couldn't think of a pun with plastic that would work)

None of them have ever heard of this store before

Cady tells them where it is so they walk over to figure out just what the hell is going on

When they get over there they see a more modern looking candy store, complete with rows of the tube-shaped candy dispensers and plenty of candy-related merchandise like pillows and shit

They notice that they have more packaged candy then store-made

Regina's is also bigger and flashier, unlike the 50's vibe that the Heathers were going for

(Imagine an It's Sugar vs. a Mom and Pop Candy Store)

Cady is waiting for Veronica outside, just so confused

She explains that when she came to the mall she looked and saw "Regina's Confectionary" and figured that was it

They argue a bit and Cady says that all she was told was that there was a Candy Store in the mall run by a trio of lesbians and she knew of a Regina and her polycule from high school so she figured that was it

(In this AU, just like how the events of Heathers didn't happen, the events of Mean Girls didn't either, Cady just came to Northshore and was taken under the wing of Janis and Damian and eventually her and Janis got together)

Cady didn't really want to work for the Plastics, but since they didn't really do much to her and Veronica had told her all these nice things about them she figured she would give it a shot

It just so happened that on the day Cady went in to start Regina was also looking for another worker, and when Cady went in asking about a job she decided to hire her on the spot

Regina decided not to question it, she just decided that it was her lucky day

Veronica then says how didn't you see the one that has Veronica in the name but she goes to look on the mall directory and she realizes that the name of the store hadn't been changed on there yet

Around this time the Plastics are locking up their store and they see the Heathers and Veronica standing there in their uniforms

Regina quickly realizes that they are her competition for the candy market in the mall and so she decides to flaunt how amazing her store is and how they're going to put their sad little store out of business

It takes every ounce of restraint in Chandler's body not to beat the shit out of Regina then and there

Regina keeps yapping and Chandler snaps, launching herself at her, narrowly missing Regina

Duke, Mac and Veronica all rush to restrain her

Chandler then calls her a copycat and a pathetic little trust fun baby who didn't have to work for anything while she built her store with blood sweat and tears, and at least she could make her own candy and didn't have to buy pre-packaged

That makes Regina snap

Thankfully Gretchen and Karen knew this was coming and were able to grab Regina before she socks Chandler right in her face

Both groups decide to leave, still holding on to Chandler and Regina, who are both still spewing insults at each other, saying how they will run each other out of business

When they get back to the car Chandler swears that she is going to run that bitch outta here if its the last thing she does

Over the next few weeks their rivalry continues

Chandler is constantly pushing the others to come up with new candy to draw more people in

At the same time, Regina is coming up with all these deals to draw people away

Sure they candy might not be as good, but who cares as long as its cheaper, and people generally agree with that philosophy

Being made in-store, the Heathers' candy tastes much better, but as a result it is much more expensive to make and sell, and not everyone has that kind of money to spend on sweets

After learning that Cady was supposed to work for the Heathers, Regina offers her just an insane sum of money for a part time job to stay there, which Cady agrees to

Veronica feels betrayed, but when Cady tells her the amount she is forced to concede that maybe she should stay there, bc its more than the Heathers would be able to offer her considering that business slowed substantially since Regina's opened

A similar situation between what happened with Martha and Betty happens between Cady and Janis, but unlike with the Heathers the seemingly only redeeming quality of Regina is how much she is paying her

Janis is still pissed at Cady for working for someone who essentially ruined her life, but is also begrudgingly forced to admit that the money is nice and helps in the event that her commissions dry up

Anytime they come across each other, Chandler and Regina get into a screaming match, which mall security often has to break up

Eventually the mall owners get tired of the constant arguments and pull them into a meeting, essentially saying that one of them has to go for the mall to have peace

While Heathers' was there longer, Regina's gets more business, so the mall cannot decide which one needs to leave

They then say that they have to decide amongst themselves who leaves, otherwise they both get kicked out

Regina tries giving them a shit load of cash to leave but Chandler's ego is too large for that and she refuses

After a bit of arguing Gretchen comes up with the idea for a competition, where they will have three rounds where they would each make the same kind of candy and have an audience taste test and vote on who is better

**Line break bc tumblr is dumblr**

Chandler and Regina both agree and when they bring up the idea of the owners they see this as an opportunity to bring more people to the mall and agree as well

They spend a few weeks promoting it and setting things up when the day finally arrives

A stage was set up with the Heathers and Veronica on one side and Cady and the Plastics on the other, with all the necessary equipment and ingredients

Below them is the audience area, where 9 chairs are set up for the judges

Janis somehow ends up being one of them, being selected randomly

The first candy was chosen by the Heathers, the second by the Plastics, and the third was chosen by the audience

The first candy chosen is chocolate

The Heathers win easily, The Plastics don't make alot of chocolate in their store, preferring to sell pre-packaged, so they were completely outmatched

The second is a sour chew

The Plastics win, Karen really likes sour candy (She doesn't even think its sour, she can eat bag after bag of it and not once complain of the sourness), so they are used to making it

The audience choice is a candy cane

Its around Christmas Time, so it fits

Neither group make these that often, so they are on equal playing level here

Once they finish and hand over their samples, Chandler is sweating bullets

But when the votes are tallied, the Heathers win and get to keep their store at the mall

Regina actually growls at her before storming off

Later, Chandler gets a beach chair and some popcorn while she watches the Plastics and Cady move out of their store, laughing every time they struggle with something

Cady eventually confesses to Veronica that she sabotaged the last batch by putting in too much peppermint, making the cane's taste too strong and allowing the Heathers to keep their store

Veronica worries that she might get fired, but Cady says they'res no way they would notice, since they were too busy doing their jobs to notice her

Once they move out, the Heathers' store gets alot more business from those who heard how they won their competition through sheer skill, so much so that they are able to reduce their prices a bit, which brings in the customers who may have once went to Regina's bc of their cheaper prices

Things are going so well, in fact, that they even begin to discuss moving out of the mall and into a larger space so they can have more candy and more space to make it

I love the dynamic between the trio this episode. In the books it was only really grover-percy and percy-annabeth (duh) i love the inclusion of grover-annabeth

The whole episode was just percy touching upon very touchy topics and me going euuughhogreaksl seeing annabeth and grover’s face LIKE STOP TALKING NOW!

I like that they expanded on the line about the betrayal. Felt like he didnt think about it till the end in the book but in the show it affects how he interacts with annabeth and grover

Percy preaching democracy

SPECIAL SHOUTOUT TO THE CONSENSUS SONG THE BEST PART OF THE EPISODE

Its like if drive and on the same boat had a kid

Joe tracz reminding us that he wrote the tlt musical and dont pretend the consensus song is not ‘on the same boat’

The whole scene of annabeth hoarding candy from the grocery store was so funny. The little frustrated face #leahismyannabeth

Also alecto using annabeth’s pride

MEDUSA got the biggest glow up from the books to the tv show, like she was just a victim, yet morally grey. Also I KNEW THAT THE ‘NOT ALL MONSTERS ARE MONSTERS’ SCENE WAS GOING TO AFFECT THE MEDUSA STORY

The sets were so good in this scene

”i dont think annabeth is like that��

Grover distracting medusa, annabeth putting her cap on her, percy cutting off her head; name a better trio

Grover yelling at both percy and annabeth YOU GO GROVER PULL YOURSELVES TOGETHER

”I didn’t think we’d ever be friends” eehraeuiqigdsjkntouaeh that was mean but the dramatic irony

HE SAID THE LINE HE SAID THE LINE

Consensus song supremacy

Anyway, this was the best episode so far

OC Most likely to tag!

I was tagged by @paeliae-occasionally @tildeathiwillwrite and @willtheweaver (thanks) and it looked fun, so I’m doing it. I’ll shall answer with the cast of the Grove of Kings and Killers.

Rules: answer with which of your OCs would be the most likely to do the statement, then give new statements for the next person.

Most likely to arrive ridiculously early

Francis? He cares about stuff like that. Other than that, Courlin, only if it’s for a Guild thing, because she absolutely does not care about anything outside of the Guild.

2. Most likely to be in a relationship for less than a week

Rosanna.

3. Most likely to secretly be really good at music, but just not tell anyone

I’m not sure, but Francis or Victor might. Some of Courlin’s siblings play musical instruments, but that’s not a secret. For how much I enjoy music, especially playing it, I don’t really have any characters that play music.

4. Most likely to embarrass their friends in public

Isla (Francis’ little sister). She loves to tell embarrassing stories about her friends to other friends and/or strangers.

5. Most likely to get drunk/hungover

Rosanna, especially after the thing with Edgar, even though getting drunk is what got her into that problem in the first place. She canonically does this quite often.

6. Most likely to get kicked out of summer camp

Either Courlin, for being generally unpleasant to the other kids/bringing a weapon(s), or Francis (shocking, I know), whose parents would be politically asked to take him home and have him tested, because he kept trying to organize the counselors’ stuff and didn’t want to do the potentially messy activities.

7. Most likely to Spontaneously adopt a child

Francis does this. Technically him and courlin since they end up living together, but he would be the one to bring the child home. Conversation would go like this:

Francis: Courlin, I’m home! And I have a surprise for you!

Courlin: Francis that is a literal child what is it doing in our house.

Francis: “She,” not “it”, actually. And she said she was an orphan and didn’t have parents or a home! And I thought, well, we have a home, and we could be her parents.

Courlin, in absolute disbelief: Francis, you can’t just bring a random child into our house! She could be lying and you’d be arrested for kidnapping. And we are not - not - becoming parents. I’m kicking her out. Take her back.

*kid ends up staying*

8. Most likely to have the loudest sneeze

Vincent. He’s like if you took a jock, made him nice to be around, and put him in fantasy, so it only makes sense he would sneeze loudly.

9. Most likely to be taken the least seriously

Probably Collete (Vincent’s sister), because she’s the youngest.

10. Most likely to faint

I think Rosanna because Courlin would never do something so weak and the boys just wouldn’t. Actually Francis probably would.

11. Most likely to enjoy art

Rosanna because of her upper class raising, but I could see some of the younger trio (Victor, Isla, and Collette), really getting into art.

12. Most likely to hate sports

Well, Courlin likes physical activity but dislikes sports, Rosanna likes sports but dislikes physical activity, and Francis dislikes them both.

Tagging: @theverumproject @litany-writes @lordfenric-writes @the-golden-comet and @elsie-writes have fun

Which of your characters is most likely to:

Get arrested on false charges

Get caught robbing a candy store

Sing in the shower

A Ninjago Heathers AU Idea

I adore Heathers with my whole soul(candy store, meant to be yours, dead girl walking and seventeen all ended up on my top songs of 2023 playlist for context), and I love ninjago with my whole soul(70k words of fics in my Google docs, so many hours spent reading and drawing for it, and multiple cosplays), so naturally I want to combine them. But I(probably)don’t have the patience for writing all that, so the skeleton of it is landing here

Cast:

Veronica: Lloyd

JD: Harumi(but like she’s the perfect JD change my mind)

H. Chandler: Kai

H. Duke: Cole

H. McNamara: Jay

Kurt and Ram: Nya and Skylor

Martha: Brad Tudabone

Ms Fleming: Dareth(it just…I don’t think I need to explain it)

Notes:

If you can’t tell, the whole thing is gender bent. tinylifeboat123 has a lovely gender bent Heathers au I used for inspiration/reference 

And to clarify it’s still set in 1989

Okay but Kai definitely gives Heather Chandler. Like he would be popular, a mythic bitch, and sing lead in candy store

Similarly, I think Jay would make a great Heather MacNamera. Also, this would be a Gordon situation, as he is loaded because his dad’s an actor

Look, Llorumi isn’t a popular or generally liked ship(for good reason, I don’t ship them at all when it comes to canon), but idk to me they fit for Veronica and JD??? Like, especially Rumi being JD? She already blew up a building and murdered people in canon

Give me big fun at the Smith house please

Dead Girl Walking would play out differently specifically because I hc Lloyd as hella ace. It still ends in him and Rumi becoming official, but no sex

Blue would also play out differently since Nya is taken(yes by Jay) and Skylor just had her bf(?) die. They would try to convince him to do stuff with a girl(probably Akita but it doesn’t really matter), and when he refuses they spread a rumor that he said no because he’s gay. Cue Rumi using an uno reverse card in Our Love is God(idk maybe a mention about how they both are queer but the world doesn’t love them for who they are and people saying stuff like that are the problem?)

Dead Gay Son could go whatever way you want, but I would probably have it be about scruffshipping(Dareth/Ronin) because I hc Ronin as becoming Nya’s functional uncle post season 5

The dead trio would have a lot more dynamics with each other, considering there’s a pair of best friends, a couple(?), and a pair of siblings(something something Kai and Nya could have been the older siblings Lloyd never had something something)

I definitely could see Dareth leading shine a light. Seems like a very in-character thing for him to do.

Give me Jay having a breakdown over how he rides the bus because all his rides to school are dead. Give me Jay singing lifeboat. Give me Lloyd stopping Jay from doing that one thing in the bathroom. I need it. I NEED it.

The kindergarten boyfriend was Lloyd. He didn’t die, but he has so strongly left Brad behind that in his eyes he might as well have. This also makes the line “I’m so sorry” sooo much worse

Is 90% of this au just for the last 5 songs? Absolutely. They just fit the Llorumi dynamic. Like Lloyd realizes that she is crazy and her being stopped is far more than their relationship being saved. Does Lloyd wish they could have work out? Yes. Does he still try to save her until the very last second? Yes. Is there remorse from both parties? Yes. But in the end she's “beaten fair and square” and dies, and there isn’t a shoved in rushed redemption arc I’m looking at you Crystalized you butchered my girl.

Greenflower in beautiful(reprise)? Maybe a kiss???

Star Sending with the Virbank Baddies

The preparations

Calling the gang

Rimi explains about the Star Sending event and gives the list of characters’ wishes. They all need to focus on the Bisharp trio: Clarent, Gladius, and Sabre.

They all need to go to different places. Rimi needs to go to Shopping Mall Nine, Noelle to check the southwestern Unova, and Edin to check all of it.

Rimi’s side

Rimi arrives at Shopping Mall Nine. It is bigger and modern compared to what humans had. There’s more shops, and not only that: there’s a food court and some sort of entertainment like cinema and arcade.

Rimi arrives at the store that has some battle items. The things she needs for Sabre are: some experience candies, Eviolite, and Covert Cloak. Sure those are expensive, but she has enough money to buy them.  She bought some EXP Candy L, an Eviolite, and a Covert Cloak.

The next store is called “TM Galore'' where it sells Technical Machines. It has a big variety of TMs and they are sorted by type. So, Rimi needs two TMs for those Bisharp. She needs to buy something for Clarent and Sabre. She bought TM058 Brick Break for the former and TM088 Swords Dance for the latter.

For Eviolite, she needs to make it like Sabre’s “foe” Vel. So, she put it on a green necklace that bought at the jewelry store and somehow coincidentally looks like this.

Noelle’s side

Noelle has no big tasks other than checking the southwestern Unova (from Aspertia to Virbank). The first thing she does is go to a nearby grocery store in Floccesy, her hometown. She bought 100% dark chocolate for Clarent. Noelle loved it when she was a little, though her parents hated it.

And then she goes to Virbank to visit a malasada shop where Rimi’s mother Leia works. Noelle greets her with a kind smile and asks if this shop has something sweet. And of course Leia gives her a sweetest malasada made with the sweetest. Rumor that it contains Watmel Berry but it has other sweet berries as well.

She visits her house for a sharpening stone. And she has an old whetstone that she doesn't need anymore and took it.

And it’s time to convince the people living in Aspertia. Noelle visited Diego’s house first to convince them to get a souvenir from Paldea. They both didn’t get along well, but in the end Diego gives something. It’s a small replica of Artazon’s windmill that has a painting of Sunflora. Soon after she visited Cheren High and said that someone wants to talk to him.

And what’s about the mother and son that want gifts for each other. Well, Noelle has a little Pawniard figurine that she doesn't need and of course the Dark Gem. She hopes they both like those.

Edin’s side

For Edin, he travels all across Unova, but he doesn’t need to do much, so he arrives at Undella Town to see an ocean with his eyes. He sat until sunset. It was of course very gorgeous.

The gifts

Clarent

Rimi calls Clarent to Aspertia and gives the items she wants: a dark chocolate, TM058, a windmill, and a Pawniard figurine for Gladius. 

“Here they are. I hope you enjoy it.” she says it with a very kind smile “Oh, I wanna show someone. Follow me!”

They both go to Cheren High to meet with someone.

An adult Eevee? That was unexpected because all the adult Eevees are mostly evolved, while one is still unevolved. That’s why Clarent might look surprised.

Sabre

Noelle arrives at Route 20 to wait for Sabre. Soon, a small looking Bisharp arrives. Noelle gives very good smile, while she has something on her back.

She wrapped everything in a Covert Cloak. Three EXP Candies L, an TM088, and a Eviolite (she says that she took it from Vel), although she has no idea who Vel was. But somehow, it was a miracle that it the exact replica of a necklace with real Eviolite on it.

Gladius

Edin calls Gladius to the beach at Undella Town.

“Oh, hi! I hope you’re doing well as I do. Here, I got ya.” he smiles and handles some malasadas, a whetstone, and a Dark Gem. The only thing missing is training lessons because everyone in the band doesn't know any tutor. But that’s not the main reason, the reason he calls the Bisharp is this:

They both see a beautiful sunset together, until the gang arrives.

The gathering

Rimi, Noelle, and two Bisharps arrive here in Undella Town to gather everyone here together.

The band stands together and smiles.

They both say with a delightful joy: “I hope you have a great holiday this year!”

MOD NOTE BELOW

This is longest post I made here. It probably beats the long interaction post with Fern, although it was text only.

It took me month to do and half of the text is the last minute preparation. I started drawing like week or two ago. I think I'm satisfied with the result so far.

Of course feel free to reply if you want since I have some items that involves Clarent and Gladius. And also if you want, you can do replies during the gifting process.

MAAAN

I’m so sorry to bother you about this

PLEASE TELL ME YOU HAVE RECEIVED MY REPLY! THERE WAS SO MUCH IN IT AND I CANT SEE IT ON MY OWN BLOG! 😭

And if you have it please at any given point reblog a screenshot of it or something, I just have to see what I had there. I am so tangled up in all my ideas and AUs i need to have everything I wrote down!

Oh my gosh I have learnt my lesson, next time I will screenshot it myself, but this has been so chaotic, and I didn’t think this would happen!

And if you don’t have it, that’s okay too, I’m just gonna loose my mind.

You know this is serious when I accidentally submitted this to my own ask box I’m in such a hurry.

Yes, Yes, I got it, Don’t worry!

So from what I have read from you, I think I have a good idea of how the Scylly/Tia/BloodFox trio would be like:

As Scylla and Tiamat are “Mean Girls” that prefer to be independent, they were both probably initially bitter about their punishments of being the “babysitters” for the new guy when BloodFox first arrived, but they didn’t want to push Goji over the limit.

BloodFox is of course confused and awkward about being in a world that is brighter and that is not in a war for the fate of the planet. I would that being in the ShiMom AU/Monsterverse is like a kid being in a candy store for the first time.

I see BloodFox, Scylla and Tiamat being the three that slowly start to become close as the crossover goes on. That is, of course, until he meets Shimo and he volunteers to stay behind to help her in her current situation under the circumstances that Skar had her in. In a nutshell, the three are this TikTok audio in my mind.

Scylla would be more loving towards BloodFox and I think Tia would be the one more aggressive and cold towards the poor guy, seeing how “weak and nice” he is.

This would change when they see how terrifying he is when he is mad (probably one of the fuckers that chase Kong in the GxK opening scene fucked up) and especially Tia would think about her attitude towards the kid. Even more when eventually they find out more about what the fuck happened to him and what he actually is.
