Headcanon; post-canon, Mithrun stayed in the Canaries lodging for a while — his squad were happy for that, and none moreso than Pattadol who worries a fair bit about him living alone. But, ultimately, he got his own place in Melini once everyone else had moved on as well.
Despite being from a noble family and having connections to both his brother and the new King, he saw little reason to pull said strings. It probably was suggested by Pattadol and maybe also Cithis that having live-in servants might be beneficial, but he declined. Having a large home and servants felt no different than the lodging quarters, so what was the point? He would only be there periodically, anyway.
Mithrun has a simple house in Melini with a fairly large garden. It's an average sized house, primarily built from wood— the one thing he did accept help on was having it furnished/decorated, because it would have been the same to him if he had nothing besides a mattress to sleep on— and everyone seemed bothered by that idea. It's actually quite a nice space, now. The garden is mostly made up of flowers and a few fruit/vegetable patches, though none of it is Mithrun's doing. It was all left from the previous owners.
His home is cozy, to a degree, but it does feel slightly... Impersonal. When visiting his brother for the first time post-canon, he had given Mithrun two boxes full of his personal affects from before he joined the Canaries. Books, jewellery, photo frames, and so on. Those boxes were brought back to Melini, but they're just sitting there gathering dust.
That said, one photo that does hang on his wall — a moving-in surprise, courtesy of those who helped him decorate — is a framed picture of their squad, the official photo they all took together when initially assigned. They all look morose or pissed-off, for the most part, but they're together. Despite their circumstances (and clashing personalities), they did spend a lot of time together and a strange kinship appeared to have formed. He does look at that photo sometimes.

Moe Moe Sama is Backie ~
… Wu Wa brainrots :>?
It's been a while! I've missed you!
WUWA WUWA WUWA!! With all these games and adulting it can get quite hard to stay up to date so I hope these characters aren't too OOC.
Calcharo . Xiangli Yao . Mortefi . Scar
Tumblr media
.
Calcharo will keep you in shape to fight along side him... For the most part. You'll never be faster than him, smarter than him or stronger than him, but you will be able to take down some of the smaller tacet discords and any thieves that try to take advantage of you.
You're going to be monitored by someone of the Ghost Hounds at almost all times. This world is far from safe, be it by TD's or humans alike, he will not take his chances.
"Your life isn't a price worth negotiating," he'd say, keeping you under his arm so you can't run into danger (run away).
He doesn't share you well, you're the sweetheart of the Ghost Hounds but most people won't go past saying hi or a gentle compliment though there has been punishment; see below. The most in terms of other human contact would be from people like Aalto and Jiyan who only get a hard, contemplated stare from him.
Calcharo is a surprisingly generous - and a little ignorant - lover. He'll always say no to something that seems new to a weird extent but is very easy to convince and will probably like it more than you do. Tongue in the bum? Don't be gross. Ugh but with how tight those rings of muscles knead around his tongue has something so tantalisingly delicious about it. Let's try his cock next-
Punishment is tight. Most of the time it involves ropes and chains, keeping you in place, locking you to one area. Red strikes across your thighs and arse from a good lashing or spanking is probable. On the harsher times you will be displayed in public, and a couple of times he has let them use you. "You want to act like a whore? Fine. Use her to your content, I'll be back in a few hours." It really makes you enjoy the sympathetic and kind touches you receive under Calcharo's care.
.~.~.~.~.~.
Xiangli Yao is a wonderful master to his puppy princess. Yes, you are his sweet pet that he raises with love. An adorned collar sits prettily around your neck, your nails are trimmed and cared for all by yours truly.
With a calm smile he holds out his hand expectantly. You place the scroll on his palm and sit on the floor beside his legs, the paper being passed from one hand to the other so he can now pet your head, "Thank you, puppy. Hm... It seems we have an urgent commission. We will have to put off your toilet training until I come back." You couldn't be more thankful.
No privacy, this man. Your business is his business and if you don't have business then he's not doing very well as your owner, is he? He will have to create some game of stimulation for you. Hide and seek around the home, "Where's your ball?" is one of his favourites for when he's doing papers.
The thing with Xiangli Yao is that he is fully aware with how demented this is. Embarrassing you 24/7, forcing you into uncomfortable situations that strip you of your humanity, showing you off to others as if this is the most normal thing, it just gives him such a rush to be so above you in every possible way.
If you don't pick which collar/leash combo you want for the day then he will choose for you.
"Oh, you brought (Y/n) in for the day! How nice to get them out of the house," people may say as he pulls you into work with him. You're fawned over after the initial shock of being his pet and not his partner.
Exhibitionist but more so forcing you then doing it himself. Bullet vibrators, ropes, ben wa balls, you name it. It's important that puppy has their toys with them, so along with your leash make sure you pick something fun to play with as well.
Definitely has a bone gag and those belts and mitts to make you even more puppy-like. Goodness help you if he finds a 'puppy playtime' event, anything to make his pet utterly red with shame <3
*~*~*~*~*
Mortefi is not into public affection and won't really touch you unless he needs or really wants to. He's not going to condemn you if you wrap your arms around his torso or hold his hand when anxious, but, you only need to follow his voice when he orders you to come to keep him happy.
That being said, going out is a privilege and not a right. You don't have to get on your knees for him or clean the kitchen ever hour, just stop breaking things and throwing a tantrum and he'll likely take you out of the house with him.
You have your own tablet to play games on and do your own 'work'. He won't say it out loud but he does find it cute and really enjoys when you're both staying late in the lab and on your respected devices, enjoying your company and giving him the motivation he needs to finish off this last equation.
He will make time for you whether you want it or not. Relationships will bond tightly if you rely on the other more, so, please don't do anything that will warrant a punishment as those tend to isolating.
Please please please please come to him with any invention ideas, questions, interests into his field at all. If you squint you may notice the reddening on his cheeks as his heart pounds from your attention. You want something made? Consider it done, the two of you will spend all night creating a little robot that pours the perfect amount of syrup on any size stack of pancakes.
In the early mornings Baizhi will walk in, inquiring, "Mortefi, I'm just checking in on the progress of the TD field barricades you were working on-" She stops, watching as you and Mortefi are eye level with the table to judge the collection of syrup amongst seven different plates of pancakes. The office is happy that day for a free and yummy breakfast.
Overall, he is a pretty good yandere, however things can definitely go south if you act out. It's exhausting and frankly hurts his feelings when you suddenly get a rebellious streak. Running away, throwing food off the table, attacking him, he's not one to let this sort of behaviour off the hook.
Emotions can be quite high in certain circumstances. He will analyse what is different about the recent weeks and act accordingly. Some days you need to be left in a cellar by yourself for a while, restricted from anything dangerous. Others you need a good fucking.
The sex ones are probably his preferred outlets. In all honesty, it's his fault as well. Working constantly is tiring so he can't always please you when he wants to. If you came up yourself then he would figure a way around it. Though when it's all on him then it gets difficult. If you're horny and angry from it then holding you down and giving you a few orgasms normally does the trick. As long as you're limping to the bathroom after and yawning from the exertion, he can tell the next few days will be relatively peaceful.
.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.
Scar is a maniac and thrives off of your unease. 100% carves something into your skin with a knife, whether it be his name, a heart, or something else meaningful only he knows.
He will hold your head and force you watch as a human/TD experiment comes this close to your face, only held back by a chain in the ground. Your face is flooding with tears and all you can hear is the wet snarling of the creature and Scar's raucous laughter, "Oh, darling, did I scare you too much? Don't be silly, you know I'd never let anything hurt you~."
Is an open killer to anyone who disrespects you. Your fear and tears are invigorating but only if he is the cause of them. Yet, no matter how sadistic he is to you, he will always end the day by treating you like a deity of worship. Soft touches, sweet caresses, gentle kisses... You could almost believe this were someone else if you closed your eyes.
... And then he bites you, his teeth sinking into your shoulder as his cock sinks into your hole. Marking you, training your body to cave to him because you need to love him and crave him as much as he does you.
It may not seem like it to you but he certainly does have a softer side whenever you're involved. He's less irritable and more willing to hear people out, that's not to say the outcome will change for them but it at least gives them a false sense of hope before their inevitable demise.
Loves having debates with you, especially if they're based on morals. You're thinking is just so cute and deluded compared to his, to see how your mind ticks truly is a wonderful past time. Sometimes you say things that he doesn't expect and it really gets him going!
The reality of the world is forced upon you with Scar as your lover. Death is everywhere, pain ahead of it and despair accompanying that, too. To shed a tear for the world is understandable for people like you, and thanks to Scar (and his thing for dacryphilia) you will cry - a lot.
"Oh, you poor, sweet soul. Aren't we just so lucky to have found each other?" His eyes bore into yours, thumbs tenderly stroking either side of your face so he can keep you focused on him. His lips ghost over yours with every word, "I won't let another being touch a hair on your body. That's right! Only I can kill you, if you're going to die then it'll be from me alone." - he honestly finds this romantic. Please say you'll kill him back so that you can die together.

bucktommy + "To be fair, that wasn't the stupidest thing I could've done"
"To be fair, that wasn't the stupidest thing I could've done," Buck pants as he leans against the cool, brick wall. He pulls off his helmet and runs his fingers through his hair, knowing he's likely smeared soot all over his face. The building is still smouldering behind them, but Eddie and Ravi both have the hoses directed towards the flames. It's under control. Tommy looks like he could explode. His boyfriend is usually very calm and level headed, perfect traits for a first responder, but right now he looks set to rip Buck's head off. "Wasn't the stupidest - you could have - Evan, are you fucking kidding me?" Eddie and Ravi's heads turn towards the outburst and Buck winces, not wanting their first proper fight as a couple to be on full display for all their coworkers to witness. He grabs Tommy's arm and pulls him around the side of the building, away from any flapping ears. "Tommy, it's okay, I'm fine. She's fine. We're fine," he reassures Tommy as he reaches into the pocket of his turnout and pulls out the reason behind his sudden expedition into a burning building without a second's thought. The kitten is tiny in his hands, her fur rumpled and soot smudges over the beautiful, white coat. When the little girl he and Tommy had pulled from the building had said her kitten was still stuck inside the inferno, Buck hadn't hesitated before sprinting back into the building, not even with Bobby, Tommy and Eddie all yelling at him. He just hadn't anticipated Tommy to follow him back in. "Yeah but you could have been not fine! I agreed to help this shift as a favour to Bobby, not so I could get a front row seat to my boyfriend burning alive!" Buck swallows thickly and transfers the kitten into one hand so he can reach out to cup Tommy's face with the other. Tommy doesn't meet his eye, instead looking resolutely behind Buck. His jaw ticks as Buck strokes along his cheekbone with his thumb. "Tommy, I-I'm not going to burn alive. I was just gonna get her and come right back," he explains. Tommy's got to understand, right? Buck's a professional, he'd never do anything to put himself in any real danger. If he thought he couldn't get to the kitten before the building collapsed or got too hot then he would never have set foot in it. Tommy finally meets Buck's eyes then, and Buck is alarmed to see that his eyes are swimming behind a film of tears. Fuck, he's really fucked up here hasn't he? "Tommy, I-" "I can't lose you, Evan," Tommy cuts in, circling a hand around Buck's wrist and lowering his hand from Tommy's jaw. "Not like that." Buck swallows again, and he must tighten his grip on the kitten because she lets out a pitiful meow, her tiny tongue rasping against his glove as she licks at him. "I'm sorry," he whispers, hanging his head as the gravity of the situation washes over him. Tommy thought he was going to lose Buck. Tommy thought Buck was going to die. "I didn't mean to scare you." Tommy curls his fingers under Buck's chin and lifts his head, forcing eye contact. "I know you didn't, I just - baby, you mean so much to me," Tommy says, his voice raw and choked with emotion as he searches Buck's face, his eyes drinking in every inch of Buck as if he's worried it's the last time he'll be able to see him again. "Please, please don't ever do that again." "I won't, Tommy, I swear I won't," Buck promises, and he leans forwards to kiss Tommy softly. Tommy responds instantly, wrapping his arm around Buck's waist and pulling him close. Their lips move in tandem with one another, Tommy running his tongue along the seam of Buck's lips until he opens, and Buck licking back in apology. "Hey," Buck says as they pull away, resting their foreheads together. "I love you." Tommy huffs out a small laugh and kisses Buck again, lighter this time but no less emotionally charged. "I love you too."
Send me a ship and a sentence and I'll finish it!

"sweater weather."
synopsis: you've liked percy jackson for years, so when he asks you to a café date, how could you say no? however, you start to regret your decision as you find yourself skateboarding down the steepest hill you have ever encountered, but at least your crush seems to reciprocate your feelings. pairing: percy jackson x gn!reader word count: 2.0k
Tumblr media
"are you sure this is safe?"
"i've done this with you about a hundred times now, y/n." percy responds, picking up speed on his skateboard. the wind rushes through his hair, and you hold tightly onto his waist as you glide downhill.
"doesn't make it any safer!" you yell over the wind as you continue to soar through the bustling streets of manhattan. you see, you and percy had originally planned to go to this cute little café a couple miles away from your place. any rational person would say, "i'll give you a ride," or "let's walk there!" but not percy. never percy. instead, the boy showed up at your doorstep with a skateboard under his arm as your method of "transportation."
skateboarding with percy normally wouldn't be a problem. however, you currently found yourself barreling down the steepest hill you've ever encountered at a breakneck pace. also, newsflash, skateboards are meant for one person. one. not two people with one of them leading and the other holding on for dear life.
percy only laughs as he continues to pick up speed, seemingly unfazed by the danger of the situation. "don't you worry," he reassures you, turning around to look straight into your eyes. "i won't let you get hurt."
"yeah, well if you really meant that then maybe you should keep your eyes on the street." you mumble under your breath, though his words do bring you some comfort. but at this point, all you could do was hold onto percy a little tighter and hope that you would make it to the café in one piece.
finally, you start nearing the end of the hill, and percy begins to lean back on his skateboard, gradually slowing down his momentum. as you both come to a stop, you take in the sight of the various shops lining the street. percy signals for you to dismount, and tucks his skateboard under his arm, smiling at you proudly. "see? that wasn't too bad!"
"oh yeah, considering the 6 pedestrians you almost ran over and the handful of laws you probably violated, i'd say it went pretty well!" you respond, voice laced with sarcasm. percy only shrugs, seemingly unfazed by the incident. "well, it could have been worse," he states nonchalantly, causing you to shake your head in disbelief.
"now c'mon," he points to his left. "the café is that way." you both start walking in that direction, taking in the various sights and sounds of the bustling street. the aroma of freshly brewed coffee lingers in the air, blending with the sounds of city traffic and chatter.
the trees along the street are beginning to change colors for autumn, with leaves of orange and amber hues falling from the branches and gently crunching beneath your feet. you catch a glimpse of percy as he happily stomps on the leaves, like a little kid or something.
as you walk alongside percy, you can't help but feel a chill creeping into your bones. you notice how cozy he looks in his sweater and beanie, complete with fingerless gloves, while you shiver in your plain t-shirt and jeans. if only you had known how cold it would be, you would have dressed accordingly. the wind nips at your skin, making you shiver involuntarily. you feel the cold creeping in, and percy seems to sense it too.
"aren't you cold? y'must be freezing." percy says, slowing his pace and turns to face you, his eyes filled with genuine concern.
you hesitate to admit it. you'd do a lot of things, but admitting you were cold to percy jackson was not one of them.
"dunno what gives you that idea. i've never been better," you respond, trying to sound confident and unaffected, but your shivering frame is a clear giveaway.
percy clearly isn't convinced and rolls his eyes, propping his skateboard against a nearby tree. he approaches you, and before you can react, he abruptly takes your hands in his. he cradles them gently and breathes on them lightly, his warm breath coming in short puffs. a shiver runs down your spine that has nothing to do with the cold. even though the sudden contact catches you off-guard, the warmth makes you feel better instantly.
"thanks.." you say awkwardly, glancing around, trying to avoid eye contact with the boy. percy only nods in response, picking up his skateboard, but he never lets go of your hand.
you both continue walking in the same direction, his grip is firm, and you can feel the heat emanating from his palm. it's a small gesture, but it provides a sense of security and comfort. you feel safe and protected, even in the midst of the chilly weather. you both walk like that for a while, hand in hand, until percy comes to a sudden halt.
"we're here." percy says, stopping in front of a small café nestled between other shops. it's almost hidden, the small neon sign that reads "open" is the only clue that it's still in operation. despite its seemingly obscure location, the cafe must be doing well enough to stay afloat, as you and percy have been coming here for years.
percy extends his hand to open the door, and the sound of a bell chimes overhead. his eyes light up with excitement as he turns to you with a grin, "after you." he says, going as far as to make a dorky bow with his eyes closed. when you don't budge, percy opens one eye and catches your unamused expression.
"you're such a dork," you say, causing percy to snicker. eventually, you comply and step inside, and he follows you with a smile.
as you enter, a worker looks up to see you and percy, nodding and smiling in recognition. you and percy are regulars here, and she has your orders memorized by now. with a subtle wave, you make your way to your usual table by the window. percy pulls out a chair for you before taking his own seat, propping his skateboard against the table as he settles in.
you take a moment to glance out the window, taking in the busy street outside. the sounds of the city fill your ears, but it's a comforting kind of chaos. your attention soon shifts back to percy, who's already looking at you.
in the moment, he appears exceptionally beautiful, with the fluorescent lights casting a soft glow on his face and highlighting his every feature. you've been best friends for years, but sometimes it feels like there's something more there.
percy leans forward, resting his elbows on the table as he clacks his fingernails against the surface. "sooo," he begins, a grin already settling on his face. "i'm assuming you're not gonna let me give you a ride home on my skateboard?" he raises an eyebrow at you, waiting for your response.
"after that near-death experience? hell. no."
percy chuckles, his eyes crinkling at the corners, and you continue chattering as you wait for your order to arrive.
finally, the server arrives with steaming hot cups of foamy drinks and a tray of pastries. you express your gratitude with a warm smile, as the server hands you a crisp napkin alongside your food. as you prepare to rest your drink on the napkin, your eyes catch sight of a message written in bold, black sharpie. your heart skips a beat as you catch a glimpse of the message which reads, "so, when are you guys gonna start dating?"
your eyes widen and your cheeks flush. maybe your interactions with percy were a lot more obvious than you thought? you quickly crumple the napkin and stuff it into your jeans' pocket, hoping that percy didn't see it.
you take a sip of your drink, trying to focus on the cool liquid running down your throat rather than the napkin that crumples in your back pocket with every shift. as you put the cup down, you notice percy glancing at you with a small grin on his face.. "y'got a little bit.." percy says, pointing to his upper lip where you had a little bit of foam. you try to wipe it off using the corner of a napkin but you don't manage to get all of it.
"here, lemme," percy starts, using his thumb to wipe off the remaining foam on your lip. your heart flutters as he leans in close to you, sending a rush of butterflies through your stomach. as quickly as it had happened, the moment passes, and you're left feeling a little bit dazed.
as you murmur a quiet "thank you", the warmth of percy's touch still lingers on your skin. he nods in response, meeting your gaze for a quick moment. you return to your drink, enjoying the easy conversation with percy as time flies by and the pastries on the tray slowly disappear.

"looks like you're done," percy says a couple hours later, a slight smile gracing his lips. "let's go now, yeah? before it gets dark." he pulls out his wallet and leaves a generous tip for the server before picking up his skateboard and tucking it under his arm. you both wave to the server as she passes, and she shoots you a knowing wink, probably referring to the note from earlier.
once again, percy holds the door open for you, but this time he doesn't attempt the dorky bow from earlier. thank god.
the second you step outside the café, the cold wind hits you with full force. percy notices your discomfort and sends you a worried glance, silently asking if you're okay.
"colder than i thought," you manage to say, mustering a small laugh. "uh, well, this was nice. thanks for everything per-"
before you can finish your sentence, percy's already pulling off his sweater, placing it in your hands. he's only left in a thin t-shirt, his arms revealed to the cold, but he doesn't seem to mind.
as you hold the sweater in your hands, you look up at percy, and then back at his sweater, then back at him again.
"what? you don't think i'm gonna let you walk home without any warmth, do you?" he asks, his warm breath visible in the cold air.
you manage a small "thanks" as you pull his sweater over your shoulders, feeling the comforting warmth it provides. the soft texture and soothing scent of his sweater immediately put you at ease, and for a moment, you're lost in thought, before percy breaks the silence.
"you're gonna be okay, walking home i mean, right? if you need anything, just call me."
with a small smile, you reassure him. "yeah, i'll be fine, perce. thanks for everything." he returns your smile and waves before starting to walk away. but then, as if struck by a sudden impulse, he rushes back to you, planting a gentle kiss on your cheek before darting away on his skateboard.
you stand there frozen in the middle of the bustling street, feeling a sense of comfort wash over you. the warmth of his sweater and the tender kiss on your cheek make you feel cherished in a way you haven't felt in a long time. as you watch him disappear into the crowd, you can't help but feel a sense of longing.
the only physical remnants of his presence are the warm spot on your cheek, and of course, the blue sweater draped over your shoulders.

(1/7) The train that was
Trainwreck Graveyard
(2/7) Ready to go
The train started coming to a halt about a minute after the explosion
Why do these things have to be so loud, the sheriff thought, ears still ringing. She let out a sigh and closed her eyes for a moment, before attempting to stand up
Her legs were a bit shaky, but she couldn't care less with the situation at hand. Once the train had fully stopped, she stepped onto the ground through the missing back of the cabin and looked off into the distance
Broken pieces of metal were scattered everywhere, and the rails had been damaged. The last 2 cabins had been disconnected and derailed where the explosion happened a good 70-80 yards back, and was currently on it's side
Thankfully she didn't see anyone in there. The train station only let you walk directly into the first three cabins and this was a less busy time of week, but this could've been bad
As she started walking to investigate the site, someone approuched from the train. She looked back and saw a man that looked annoyed - and what she very easily recognized as a concealed sawed-off shotgun in his coat
With a smooth motion she pulled both her revolvers. "I know a thug when I see one, who the hell are you?"
He flinched, but didn't do anything. Instead, he said "The 2 that rode off don't count then? Besides, not everything revolves around you, big-shot. I gotta find those outlaws before I lose this gig."
"Gi-? Ah, hired protection. Say, you talk big for someone who should've prevented this in the first place."
"Whatever, just let me do my job", he said, walking towards the disconnected cabins to investigate, with the sheriff following suit
After a few minutes of looking around they discovered 2 things: 1) tracks, clearly from horses, and 2) a monocle, but from one of those outlaws. It seems there had been someone in the cabin after all, though there was no trace of them...
The man turned to the sheriff. "Well, good luck with writing a report or whatever, I'm off", as he started following the tracks.
"Hold your horses, cowboy. No way are you going after them by yourself, can't have another missing person on my conscience."
"I don't plan on going missing Ms. Big-shot. But fine, come along if you have to."
"Stop calling me that, my name's Ashlyn."
"No thanks, I'm fine with Big-shot. But for the sake of pleasantries, I'm Tyler."
She sighed. She didn't like working with others, especially knuckleheads like him. But she had this strange feeling she was gonna need all the help she could get. And right as she thought that, someone else came running up
"An adventure!? I'm coming along!", said the woman, who looked very excited. And kind of like the knucklehead too, the sheriff thought
"No way Tay, too dangerous. Besides, shouldn't you stay behind to fix the train?"
"C'mon Ty, not even I could fix this by myself. The conductor has already sent for help from a few other mechanics, they won't even notice I'm gone."
"But-"
"Besides, mom said we should always stick together. I'm going."
"Fine. But is the luggage really necessary", he asked, gesturing at the large backpack she had with her
"You never know what you'll need, and you always take too little with you. And I'm carrying it myself, so stop complaining", she snapped back
He sighed, defeated. Siblings, good to know, Ash noted. And soon, they were ready to set off
...
Aiden sat on the back of his cousin's horse, looking at the sunset. "Say Stache, why in tarnation did we take that softie again?"
The man on the horse next to him with a large moustache looked increasingly annoyed from being asked the same question for the who-knows-how-oftenth time. "Smiles, I swear to the lord in the heavens above, if you ask me that question again I'll throw this shrimp on your guys' horse."
"It don't make no sense to me though..."
"For the LAST time, he's important leverage for the possible skirmishes next week."
"But why'd they give two shit bout 'im? 'Leverage' didn't work last time."
"That's because you're the only person on this darned earth insane enough to enjoy being kidnapped by criminals, and whose parents would for some reason be okay with you wanting to stay?"
"I mean, it do be excitin', don't it?"
"Just shut up, you're givin' me another headache. Besides, we're here."
He pointed to a cave about 300 yards away, with dim orange light coming out of it. After riding for a few more moments the 4 horses came to a stop. The cousins, the man with a moustache, and 3 others stepped off their horses
The man who rode in front grabbed a weird object from his horse and gave the reins to one of the other outlaws
"Cwrwfwll wwth thwt", the kid on the back of Stache's horse mumbled through the cloth in his mouth, but noone paid him any mind
"Scars, Salted, tie them horses down. Stache, grab that kid and come with me. Same for y'all, Smiles, Silent."
Some 'yes sir's and 'alrighty's were said and Ben nodded. Stache threw the young 20-something with light brown hair over his shoulder and, together with the cousins, started following the boss
Inside, they saw a handful of others sitting around a campfire. The group, including them, consisted of about a dozen outlaws, ranging from about 16 to 40 years old
A few of them greeted the boss and the three others as they came walking in. A bit later, the last to also came to join them
"Alrighty, seems everyone's here. I think we're almost ready boys. A few more days and our names will be known throughout the country", the leader said, lighting a cigar. "A few more days..."
(3/7): in progress

Summary: As Gunwoos little sister he wanted you to finally meet his best friend. Unfortunately you don't get along. He gets on your nerves, you fight all the time and yet you can’t stop messing with each other. One evening you get into a dangerous situation and end up bruised and bloody at his apartment. And you suddenly have to ask yourself: Why do you feel so attracted to that idiot?
"What do you want me to say?" you breathed, struggling to keep your voice steady.
"What you feel," he replied, anger reflected in his eyes as well. He hated that he felt that way. That you had done this to him.
"I can't stand you," you replied, and every word hurt like someone was pressing red-hot iron against your skin. Maybe if you denied it, the feeling would go away on its own.
He came even closer, sparkling at you with mesmerising eyes.
"You don't mean that."
"You don't know what i mean. It's okay. Just leave! If I never see your face again, I'll be happy," you shot back at him, something inside you breaking more with each word. "I wish i never-" but he interrupted you by grabbing your hand.
"Don't say something you don't mean. Don't you dare," he growled.
Chapter 1:
The Idiot
„Gunwoo! Come on! Hurry up!", you shouted through your apartment, leaning on the doorframe, ready to leave.
Now your brother had already talked you into coming to a boxing match that wasn't his own, and now he was making you wait. You heard the rumble in his room and he was probably gathering his things in a panic so that you wouldn't change your mind at the last minute.
Beside the hustle you heard his cell phone ringing behind the door and he answered in a rush:
"Yeah... Yes we're on our way... See you soon."
Then he finally opened the door and ran into the kitchen to plant a kiss on your mom's cheek.
"We're off, Mom."
The woman with the same kind eyes as you and your brother turned from the stove and raised her finger.
"Just watch your little sister for me!"
You sighed loudly as your brother gave you a doubtful look and eyed you. You raised your eyebrows, as you would probably always be the little girl to your mother.
"I'm sure she can do that very well on her own," he said with a gentle smile and you snorted in amusement. But you were grateful that he didn't put you down.
Even though you were way shorter and narrower than your brother, most people had more respect for you. Or they were quickly intimidated. Unlike your reserved, polite brother, you stood out because of your confidence and cheeky manner.
If you didn't have the same eyes and handsome face, nobody would have guessed that the quiet muscleman and the little hothead were siblings.
"Come on now! Otherwise we'll be late!"
Gunwoo shoved his cell phone into his pocket and you waved goodbye to your mother as you disappeared through the door. As you walked down the stairwell, you could see your brother smiling conspiratorially.
"I thought you weren't interested in the boxing match."
"I am interested in your boxing matches. You're making me watch your friend's, aren't you?" you retorted, skipping the last two flights of stairs as you had always done.
Originally, years ago Gunwoo had told you that there was a monster lurking under the last staircase that would grab your ankles and pull you down into the basement if you weren't careful. When you were six you just stuck your tongue out at your brother who was four years older than you and called him a fool, but even today you skipped over them out of habit.
As soon as you stepped out into the fresh air, you took a deep breath. It was a summery day and the birds were chirping. Sitting in a stuffy hall all day, enveloped in the smell of sweat and blood had not been your plan.
"I just want you to finally meet Woojin! He's my best friend and a great boxer."
"Mhh," you replied, remembering the day a few months ago when Gunwoo had come home late from a fight and told you that he had been out to dinner with his opponent all evening.
You used to be his best friend. You shared everything, were always together and you even helped him train for his dream. But since this Woojin showed up, your brother only hung out with him and therefore you had little interest in getting to know him. It would be an understatement to say that you already disliked him without even knowing him.
"This is going to be great. Woojin has been training for today for a long time. I'm sure he'll rock it. And I'm sure you guys will get along great. You guys are actually very similar."
"Oh yeah?" you asked suspiciously, and Gunwoo just smiled knowingly.
-
"Watch it! Idiot," you hissed as you picked yourself up off the ground and rubbed your aching neck. The idiot who had just knocked you over was staring at you with wide eyes, completely frozen.
He had run around the corner unannounced and hit you full on. Not only was he quite a bit taller than you, but he was also broadly built and his chest, against which you had crashed, felt exactly like a wall.
Slowly he seemed to come back to reality and ran a hand through his curly mane, allowing you to see his earrings.
"Man shit! I'm really sorry about that. I didn't see you..."
"What you don't say..."
The amazed man held out his hand to help you stand up, but you ignored it. Irritated, you stood up on your own and patted your skirt while the curly-head still held out his hand.
"I was in a hurry and I just overlooked you. You're so small and light... Shit you really flew really far", he said almost enthusiastically and you scrunched your nose indignantly.
"Well, open your eyes next time, douche bag!" you snapped at him and he stared at you in surprise. He hadn't expected such a sharp tongue from such a pretty girl.
Then, fortunately, you spotted your brother at the other end of the hall, looking out for you with two bottles of Coke in his hands.
The one with the curls was now eyeing you more closely, and he was speechless as soon as you looked at him out of those shimmering eyes.
"Are you watching the boxing match?" he asked, putting on a confident smile.
"No... I just hang out here a lot. It's all full of testosterone-fueled machos and the air is so nice and stale around here."
Now there was silence again and you could clearly see in his face how he was weighing whether it was sarcasm or the truth.
"Really?" asked the rascal now and you just shook your head with a snort.
"You're really not very smart, are you?"
Maybe you weren't particularly nice, but he was getting on your nerves big time, with his handsome face that was sure to drive any other girl out of her mind.
He leaned down toward you with his hands in his pockets and grinned mischievously.
"You're quite bitchy, dollface."
"Fuck you!" you hissed at his provocation and stormed past him.
"I knew it was a mistake to come here," you muttered as you passed, not giving the macho another glance.
Instead, you disappeared among the people and joined your brother, who had gotten you into this whole mess in the first place.
"Where have you been?" he asked, handing you the Coke he'd gotten you. You brushed a strand of hair out of your face and together you stood at the entrance for the bleachers.
"Some idiot knocked me over."
"Oh. Are you okay?"
You nodded with raised eyebrows and leaned against his muscular shoulder.
"Yes ‚Oh'... I‘m fine.“
You hadn't been a fan of the idea of coming along to a boxing match from the beginning, but you had been to every one of Gunwoos fights and he had begged you to come along to his friend's fight until you had said yes.
Well, he had also bribed you with pizza and sushi, but in the end you said yes anyway. He was a boxer himself, so you already knew a lot about the sport. Most guys who boxed at your age were pumped-up, arrogant machos who had nothing but their sport on their minds. That's exactly what the idiot had just proven to you one more time.
"Trust me this is going to be really good today!"
"Let's see. If I don't get squished first."
The first rounds were indeed exciting, and you had to admit that you were soon eagerly following the fight and cheering along. But when the next fighters were announced, you froze in your seat.
The next up-and-coming boxer was announced as Hong Woojin, and Gunwoo applauded beside you as he entered the ring. As soon as the realization hit you, you gasped out loud.
This couldn't be true. As soon as you recognized the curly-haired man, you laughed in disbelief.
"That's him! That's my friend Woojin. He's unbeatable in his class!" your brother began to tell you excitedly, and you could only watch the muscular young man prance across the ring, provoking his opponent even before the fight began.
"That's the guy who knocked me down!" you said then and the start of the fight sounded simultaneously with the incredulous „What?", of your brother.
You had to bite your tongue as you watched the fight. Sweat glistened all over his toned body and with every punch, every tense, his defined muscles looked even more delicious. Gunwoo had been right. He was damn good at boxing and after an exciting exchange of punches, he won with ease.
His movements were fast and precise. Like a bee that stung when you didn't expect it.
Together you waited for him outside the locker room and when he came through the door and discovered your brother, his eyes shone with pure joy.
They fell into each other's arms, laughing, and Gunwoo patted him congratulatory on the shoulders.
It was almost cute how they jumped around clutching each other tightly and were happy like dogs who were allowed to play together in the park.
When they were done with their greeting, you cleared your throat loudly so they finally paid attention to you.
"Oh. Yeah. That's my sister, by the way. Y/N. This is Woojin," Gunwoo eagerly introduced you. Woojin stared at you wide-eyed as he recognized you, and you just pressed your lips together into a line.
"Hey."
You raised your hand and waved shortly at him.
"It's you?" he asked, perplexed, and you rolled your eyes at his disgusted expression.
"Believe me, I imagined it differently too," you said, walking ahead.
Over the next few weeks, you got to know each other better and, more importantly, you hated each other. Woojin was annoying and a pain in the ass. When you went out to eat together, you argued most of the time until Gunwoo intervened.
He teased you incessantly and enjoyed it when you glared at him angrily. It was a gift of his that within no time he knew exactly how to make you mad.
Nevertheless, you often went out together and did things as a trio, because despite your quarrels, you had one essential thing in common. Your love for Gunwoo. You had to admit that Woojin was a great friend to him and they got the best out of each other.
As much as your brother wanted you two to get along, that was probably never going to happen.
It was a few weeks later and you came up to the roof to check on the boys and let them know that dinner was almost ready.
They were working out again.
At the sight of Woojins muscle-bound torso, you swallowed hard. They lifted weights and spurred each other on until they spotted you.
Woojins gaze traveled up and down your body, lingering for quite a while on your cleavage, set off by the new dress you had just put on.
"Hey your sister is here!" he said and your brother put the weight down to look at you.
You walked over to them, trying to ignore Woojins intense stares. Maybe you should have changed your clothes. He always made fun of you, when you were wearing something more revealing so he could unsettle you. It was only a matter of time till he would make fun of you.
"Mom says dinner is almost ready."
Gunwoo nodded and grabbed one of the towels hanging over the back of the chair next to you, wiping the sweat from his forehead and chest.
Inconspicuously, you kept glancing at Woojin as he took the water bottle, his muscles pumped and tense from the workout and his hair stuck to his forehead.
It was outrageous how good he looked.
He pointed to the other towel.
"Dollface be so kind and give me that!" he said with a grin. He had given you that nickname at the very beginning and you didn't know exactly why, but you got heart palpitations every time he called you that.
Annoyed, you took the towel and threw it harder than necessary into his face.
"You're welcome," you purred provocatively, crossing your arms.
"Is that dress new?" asked Geunwoo, looking less than enthusiastic.
"Yes. Don't you like it?" you asked, looking down at yourself. It was a burgundy dress that was tight and came down to your thighs.
"Yes it does, you look good. It's just a little short, isn't it?" he said, protective brother coming through once again.
Woojin ran the towel over his abs and came closer until he was standing in front of you, eyeing you closely.
"I think it's cute. How did you know red was my favorite color?" he teased and you just rolled your eyes.
"Don't get your hopes up Woojin. Even if you were the last person on this earth, I wouldn't let you touch me."
"Ouch and I thought you were wearing those sexy outfits just for me."
Playfully shocked, he grabbed his chest and you wanted to wipe that annoying grin off his face.
"You should go take a shower... You stink," you shot back and turned around to disappear back into the house. That was a lie. In fact, he always smelled so good that you automatically wanted to move closer when he sat next to you. Even when he was sweating, he smelled seductively tart and masculine, which didn't help you loathe him.
"Is she on her period or why is she so sensitive?" he asked extra loudly so you could still hear.
In response, you just raised your middle finger and slammed the door behind you.
Another time, you wanted to watch a movie, but the argument over the remote control got so out of hand that Gunwoo had to pull you apart by force.
Woojin ended up with big scratches across his chest and you were missing a tuft of hair.
Sighing, Gunwoo had come between you and you sulked at each other for a week until your brother persuaded Woojin to apologize to you.
Secretly, you were grateful that the argument was finally over, so you invited them both to the cinema.
When you got the tickets and Woojin saw that it was the movie he'd been talking about for weeks, he'd just looked at you completely dumbfounded.
"I thought you hated horror movies, I have the taste of a preschooler and this was just another cheap copy..." he had whispered to you in the movie theatre and quoted your exact words from a few days ago.
You had just shrugged your shoulders.
"Maybe I've changed my mind."
Then the curtain went up and he had no chance to question you further.
Actually, you still hated horror movies and you wouldn't like this one either. But this was your way of apologizing without losing your pride.
When Woojin held out his bucket of popcorn to you without comment, you smiled in the darkness and took a handful.
That's how it continued to go. You didn't become best friends, yet you were constantly seen together. It had also become normal to go not only to Gunwoo's fights, but also to Woojin's. Especially when Gunwoo didn't have time because he had to help mom at the café, you would go to the fights alone.
When Woojin's eyes wandered through the crowd and he met yours, the corners of his mouth would automatically twitch upwards, as if he knew you would be there.
Even if it was just to laugh at him after a defeat or to poke him in the side on the way home when he got painful bruises. There was absolutely no middle ground with you both, constantly at each other throats, ready to pounce.

Chapter 2
The Party
It was a Saturday night when you were getting ready for a party. Half the town was invited and it was going to be a big event.
You checked your appearance in the mirror one last time and pulled your hair into place. You had half of it up and the rest fell in shimmering waves over your shoulders.
The dress was perhaps a bit daring with the emphasised cleavage and it was tight around your waist.
It artfully brought out your every curve and with the high boots and red lipstick, the black minidress looked much more expensive than it had been.
Glancing at your phone, you ran out of the bathroom and bounced right into something big and hard. Cursing, you staggered back, but two strong hands were already at your waist holding you down.
"I hate it when you do that..." you grumbled, looking up at Woojin through your thick eyelashes.
He was about to say something mean, you could tell by the glint in his eyes, but it got stuck in his throat.
Your eyes shone like diamonds, rimmed with eyeliner, that made you look like an attentive cat, and as his gaze traveled down your body, his mouth stood open as if he couldn't believe what stood before him.
He knew you as his best friend's annoying little sister, usually in sweatpants and comfy clothes when he was around, but right now you were a goddess whose presence he couldn't escape.
"Hello? Woojin?? Earth to Idiot?" you asked, waving both hands in front of his face when he didn't respond and also didn't let go of your hips.
Slowly, that brought him back to the here and now, and he looked into your eyes, caught, as if you'd saw him stealing cookies.
"Uh yeah? What did you say?" he asked and you furrowed your eyebrows in confusion.
What was wrong with him? You really had never seen him speechless before.
"I asked if you didn't have your own home?“
Gradually the teasing grin returned and he pinched your side lightly as his hands were still tightly closed around your waist. Your skin tingled strangely at the spot and even though your mind was literally screaming at you, you couldn't put any distance between you.
"What's the point when it's so much nicer at your place?"
You tilted your head a little and eyed him briefly. Surprised, you realized he wasn't dressed as casually as usual. He was wearing jeans, albeit ripped, and a dark red buttoned up shirt that sat tight against his biceps and chest. Slowly you realized what was going on here and you shook your head slightly.
Woojin just grinned wider as he saw the panic rise in your eyes.
"No. Oh no! No! GUNWOO!" you shouted almost hysterically and that's when he burst out of his bedroom door while still buttoning the last buttons of his blue shirt.
"What's the matter? What happened?" he asked, confused, looking back and forth between you.
Briefly, his gaze lingered on Woojins hands, which were still on your hips, whereupon he quickly took them away and clasped them in his neck.
"You're not coming to the same party! He just wants to embarrass me in front of my friends" you shouted, and Gunwoo put a hand on your shoulder reassuringly, but Woojin beat him to it:
"In fact, I've been invited, and Gunwoo is my companion."
Angrily, you glared at him and groaned in annoyance.
"You look gorgeous, by the way, dollface," he said, winking at you charmingly. You searched for sarcasm in his tone, but you didn't find it. Overwhelmed, you just stared at him and then walked away.
Your cheeks glowed and your hands cramped, forcing you to take a deep breath.
At the party, you immediately mingled with your friends and began to booze one drink after another. Bodies moved ungracefully around you, shimmying and shoving through to the living room or to the terrace at the back yard where people were throwing each other into the large pool. All these strange feelings were so confusing that you just wanted to drown them in alcohol. It was around midnight when you first saw your brother and Woojin again.
The older one was bringing a drink to a girl with long black hair and a pretty face. Next to her, Gunwoo was talking to her friend, and even though the alcohol was already clouding your vision, it was obvious that she was head over heels in love with the curly-haired boxer.
Directly something stung in your chest as he laughed at something she said and nudged her.
His hair shone like chocolate in the light and fell messily into his forehead. As the world spun around you and your friend's conversation slowly faded into the background, you stared at his hands for a while. The veins and pronounced knuckles had long fascinated you and you had rarely seen anything more attractive.
But when he put an arm around the girl, something similar to a growl crossed your lips.
You broke away from the circle with your friends without saying a word, and the plastic cup with the Coke-Vodka mixture in your hand crackled dangerously due to the way your fingers tightened around it.
You didn't know why or where this anger came from, but the alcohol prevented even a clear thought from breaking through the thick fog of rage.
As soon as you reached her, you changed your angle and stumbled into the girl with a really convincing startled "Oh". As you did so, you aimed accurately and the entire contents of your drink landed in the girl's face and on her light blue dress.
Shocked, she stumbled back a few steps and Woojin jumped to the side in time to avoid getting hit. With her mouth open, she wiped the burning alcohol from her eyes and you watched with satisfaction as the stain on her dress spread and her makeup ran as if a bucket of water had been poured on an oilpainting.
But from the outside you had a completely surprised expression on your face and held both hands in front of your mouth, to feign concern with your most convincing voice:
"Oh no! I'm so sorry about that! I shouldn't have drunk so much."
Stunned, the girl stared at you and you could see Woojin convulsively stifle a laugh at the angry expression on her face.
"Shit! What the hell!" she screeched at you, stomping like a little kid as she realized the extent of the disaster on her dress.
Gunwoo and the other girl watched silently, seeming to want to help but not daring to.
Woojin on the other hand, only looked at you. When your eyes met, he glared at you questioningly and he could have bet that the corners of your mouth twitched up in satisfaction for a moment.
Before you could fake a guilty conscience any further, she raced past you and disappeared somewhere in the direction of the bathroom.
Her friend ran right after her, and that's when Gunwoo turned to you and pulled you aside by the arm.
"What was that about?" he whispered as anyone around would care.
Of course he knew you did it on purpose. You couldn't hide anything from him. He knew you too well. Woojin crossed his arms and still said nothing. They both knew how much you could drink. You even drank Woojin under the table.
You just shrugged your shoulders unconcernedly and returned your brother's intense glare.
Yes, what was that all about? You had no answer to that. You were simply disturbed by the way the pretty girl looked at Woojin.
"It was an accident," you said unconvincingly, and now the amused smile came through after all.
"Don't bullshit me!" said Woojin and of course he had seen through your charade too.
But he couldn't even guess why you had done that. Maybe he thought you were crazier than he already supposed.
Astonished, he tried to read any answer from your facial features, but you were just as unreadable as usual. He never knew what was going on in your head and that made him curious.
You turned to him and leaned forward until your face hovered close to his.
"Oh. Did I mess up your one-night stand? I'm so sorry about that."
You smiled sweetly, your voice dripping with sarcasm. Woojin opened his mouth, but no sound came out. Instead, his gaze wandered aimlessly across your face.
Your noses were almost touching and the alcohol was messing up his mind. Your body in the dress was already hard to resist and he had been trying not to look in your direction all evening, even though he was almost addicted to the way you shifted your weight to the other foot, the way your curves endlessly flared under the thin fabric. If you weren’t so annoying…
Why had he never noticed how beautiful your nose was? How artistically your eyebrows were curved and how full your pink lips were?
Did they feel as soft as they looked?
"Now I guess you'll have to fill in for her. It would only be fair..." he murmured, narrowing his eyes.
You froze as his intense gaze drove heat into your cheeks. His eyes were fixed on your lips and you wanted to reply something provocative, but the amber around the black of his eyes shone so beautifully that you unconsciously bit your lower lip.
Of course, he was just teasing you, but something about his tone made you feel embarrassed.
Your fingers twitched and you fought the urge to brush the strand of hair from his forehead. You caught yourself, inches away from your face. You saw him, looking down at your lips, causing you to gulp loudly. You wanted to lean in, push away all the doubt you had in your mind, and follow your stupid heart.
It was only seconds, but the moment seemed to captivate you for an eternity. The music and the people around you only seemed like background noise by now.
"No way would I sleep with you!" you finally replied, but why did the words feel so heavy on your tongue?
Like when you claimed, chattering your teeth in front of Gunwoo, that you weren't cold, even though he had told you a hundred times to bring a jacket.
He tilted his head a bit and just smiled in amusement until Gunwoo put a hand on his shoulder and called out to fight the loud music:
"I'm going home! Mom called. She needs help. Some pipe at the sink broke. Are you coming too?"
Woojin seemed snapped out of a trance, and you both looked in different directions so quickly, as if you could use it to undo the strange moment.
"Uh yeah. Yes I'll be right there."
Then your brother turned to you.
"Are you coming?"
Briefly you were tempted to agree, but your stupid heart only raced when you looked at Woojin. Whatever was wrong with you, you desperately needed to do something about it. It was disgusting.
"No. I'll stay for a while."
Gunwoo was going to protest, and he'd throw you over his shoulder if he had to, which is why you quickly disappeared between people until he lost sight of you.
Your head squeezed uncomfortably and you clutched your chest in which your heart just wouldn't calm down. Like a wild bird fluttering incessantly in its cage. You grabbed another cup and rushed out of the living room, the atmosphere suffocating you. You needed another drink, a cigarette, and some alone time.
Actually, you didn't smoke. You hated the taste and the smell of smoke. But Woojin hated it even more and that was reason enough to put the cigarette between your lips and take a deep push.
But on the second puff, you coughed in disgust and threw the cigarette into the trash can.
Confused, you ran into the bathroom on the second floor. There was less going on and in front of the large mirror you first took a deep breath and looked at your reflection.
Your cheeks were pink, but otherwise you looked like before.
Then why did it feel like the world had turned around you?
Woojin's eyes and that annoying grin just wouldn't leave your thoughts. Annoyed with yourself, you dabbed some water on your forehead and chest, perhaps to lessen the effect of the alcohol.
Because that had to be the reason. You had simply drunk too much.
After you were reasonably calm again, you mingled with the people. Your brother and Woojin were fortunately nowhere to be seen. They were probably long gone.
You found your friends again and the conversations distracted you a little from the chaos in your head.
"You look stunning," said a guy about your age as you stood at the bar getting another drink.
"Thanks," you smiled lightly and with a quick glance you had to admit, he was really good looking. He was tall, well built and had a striking face. You struck up a conversation and he was actually funny as well. Actually he seemed to be kind and smart. Also the complete opposite of Woojin.
"Do you want to dance?" he asked after a while.
"Sure."
He led you by the hand to the dance floor and you moved to the music, laughing and goofing around a bit. However, a strange feeling crawled up the back of your neck. Like someone was watching you.
You glanced over your shoulder a few times, but in the middle of the party, among the tightly dancing couples, drunken teenagers, and loud music, you couldn't make out anyone.
The alcohol quickly made the moments flow into each other and you lost track of time. You finally found yourself in a dark corner, the guy whose name you had already forgotten, had his hands firmly on your hips, pressed you against the wall and spread hungry kisses on your neck. You closed your eyes and really tried to concentrate on the moment.
It wasn't the first time you made out with someone at a party and this time he was even friendly, charming and good looking. You rarely got that lucky and it was a welcome distraction.
You just didn't want to think about Woojin anymore.
But as soon as his fingers ran over your sides and his lips brushed your skin, you imagined how the idiot would touch you.
Would he be gentle and cautious, or dominant and rough?
A gasp escaped you as the guy cupped your breast with a hand and somehow sounded suspiciously like Woojin in your head, and when you opened your eyes and stopped seeing the boxer's broad shoulders in front of you like moments before in your imagination, your heart stopped for a moment.
What had you just been thinking about?
Panicking, you pushed the guy away from you, who looked at you in confusion.
"Did I do something wrong?" he asked, and you just shook your head. The lump in your throat was getting bigger and bigger and you feared choking on it if you didn't get out of this place soon.
"What's wrong?" he continued to ask as you picked up your purse and pulled out your cell phone.
'I just imagined you were my brother's best friend, who I actually hate, and kind of liked the idea.'
Instead you said:
"Nothing. Everything's fine. But I really have to go home now," you assured him, patting him clumsily on the shoulder as a goodbye, not knowing what to do in such a situation.
He was completely flabbergasted and looked after you as you hurried down the stairs and left the party in a complete rush.
Only when you had passed the large estate a few streets behind you, you dared to breathe a sigh of relief. The fresh night-air blew your hair out of your face and it smelled like wet asphalt and leaves. The streetlight illuminated the side streets just enough so you could still read the street names on the signs.
While you were trying to call a cab on your cell phone, you realized what kind of neighborhood you had landed in. It looked like an industrial park and there was no one on the street. You started to feel uncomfortable and when you thought you heard footsteps behind you, you ran faster.
Cursing, you tried several cab companies, but none answered. The line was busy and the constant beeping seemed to mock you. You winced when the sound was behind you again. You definitely hadn't imagined it.
Your heart was already pounding in your ears and just as you tapped Gunwoo's number, your wrist was jerked back hard and the next thing you felt was a blow on your temple.
Then everything went black.
The next time you opened your eyes you were already being dragged into a dark alley. Your vision was blurry and your head throbbed painfully, but you could make out at least three black figures.
Only when your back hit a cold stone wall did your sanity seem to return.
"Well, what have we here?" you heard the tallest of them say. His raspy voice vibrated in your ears and when you recognized the three black-clad and masked men, fear ate so deeply into your chest that your eyes instantly filled with tears.
You wanted to scream for help, but before a sound could pass your lips, a hand was pressed over your mouth and you were slammed hard against the wall. Painfully you groaned and stared at your attacker with wide eyes.
"Such a pretty thing, out so late, all alone?" he asked, and there was nothing but coldness in his eyes.
The other hand was firmly on your hip and you thought you would faint from fear, but with your last willpower you stubbornly returned his gaze and tried not to let your despair show.
The other two thugs were standing menacingly behind him. One had a baseball bat in his hand, the other had brass knuckles on both fists. You felt like you were trapped in a bad movie and wanted nothing more than to just wake up. You could see your cell phone lying on the ground behind them. The screen still glowing and Gunwoo just one call away. It had to have fallen out of your hand when he hit you.
"Listen, if I take my hand away now, you're going to be nice and quiet and not cause any problems, otherwise I'm going to have to be rude, understand?"
He talked to you like you were a little kid and you pressed your hands against your thighs to keep them from shaking.
You nodded and your heart drummed so wildly you feared dying of a heart attack.
"Good girl..." he purred, slowly removing his hand from your mouth.
Instead of screaming, you clenched your teeth hard, jerked your knee up, and caught him right between the legs. Gunwoo had shown you often enough what to do when you were attacked.
Never by three armed men, though.
At that time you had only laughed and said:
"What could happen to me? I have you. You always protect me."
Everything happened so fast that you could hardly take a breath. Fortunately, you had hit it dead on.
Groaning in pain, he slumped forward and you lashed out, hitting him in the nose with your fist, just as you had seen many times with Woojin and Gunwoo in the ring. Taking advantage of the moment of chaos, you wriggled out of his grasp and ran towards the street, the adrenaline rushing in your ears.
Your breath caught in relief as you almost reached the main road, but you were thrown back hard by your hair. Screeching, you flailed around as rough grips closed around your stomach and yanked you all the way back again.
Desperately you tried to hit something, but most of your blows came to nothing, until you were thrown against the wall again and the anger-distorted face of the gorilla appeared in front of you. You felt something warm run down your temple and you instantly fell silent as his hand closed around your neck and squeezed until you were gasping desperately for air.
"Stupid bitch! Get her purse! Look how much she's got on her!" he ordered his minions, and they ripped the purse from your body.
They quickly found your wallet, took the money inside and threw the rest aside. The one with the baseball bat handed the leader the money and he pocketed it before looking back at you and you fervently hoped they would take the money and leave.
You tugged at his hand, but it remained iron-clad around your throat and you felt your field of vision getting smaller and smaller.
Blood soaked his mask and he had trouble speaking. At least you got him right.
"Shit, she's really tough..." he laughed and tore the mask off his face.
When you saw the cruel face, your heart sank and desperation slowly made your resistance collapse. His eyes wandered lustfully down your body and the grip on your neck loosened a little.
"She looks really hot... I guess we got really lucky today," he said and his minions laughed disgustingly.
"What do you think? We have a little fun and you make up for beating me, huh?" he purred, and the fear took on entirely different proportions.
The tears now flowed freely down your cheeks and you tugged harder on his hand, but he didn't move a millimeter. The other two walked a few steps away and turned their backs on you. Maybe to keep watch, maybe to ease their consciences.
With his other hand he grabbed your hip and pushed your legs apart with his knee. In your mind you prayed to whatever God there was to help you. You felt alone and completely helpless that you were about to give up.
Like in a trance, you only noticed how he tore the dress at your chest and pushed it up your legs. You squinted your eyes, your heart ached and fear gradually made you drift away as soon as you heard his belt buckle open.
"Hey you fucking asshole! Hands off her! Now!"
Your eyelids fluttered at the aggressive shout and before your tormentor could turn around, he was yanked away from you and a fist hit him in the jaw with such force that he staggered back.
As soon as you regained your breath, you gasped and slumped against the wall. Your legs no longer supported you and you could only watch, crouched on the floor, as Woojin stood in front of the gorilla and raised his fists.
"What's the matter? Have you lost your tongue?" he shouted at him and now the others also became attentive and rushed to help their boss. He seemed to notice them only now.
"Shit," he muttered and gave you a curt look. The tears in your eyes and the blood slowly running down your temple were enough to make his anger boil over and something animalistic entered his eyes.
You grabbed your aching throat and couldn't believe he was really here. But the relief was quickly overshadowed by new fear as you saw them circling him, baseball bat at the ready.
Woojin breathed calmly and fixated his attackers intently. As he did so, he gritted his teeth aggressively and his jaw muscles twitched with tension.
"You little bastard. Do you really think you can stand up to us?" the one with brass knuckles asked provocatively and Woojin just laughed bitterly.
"Let's try."
You knew the look from the ring, only this time it was aggressive and angry. There wasn't a glint left of the enthusiasm of sportsmanship flickering in his eyes.
There was only blackness and unbridled hatred there.
With that, the gorilla charged at him, but he dodged with ease. He also dodged the next blows and countered with a series of quick, precise punches, all of them hit forcefully. But already the one with the baseball bat swung out and missed him by a hair's breadth.
Woojin kicked him in the knee, punched the third in the face and fended off more blows from the goon. With a well-aimed kick, he managed to knock the gorilla off his feet, but a startled growl escaped him as the baseball bat hit him hard on the rib.
Woojin staggered back, gasping, took the guard up and cashed in a few more blows with the baseball bat until he found a gap and with a clean blow to the temple took out the attacker.
Quick as a flash, he grabbed the baseball bat and threw it at the goon, who was just getting back up at the same time as the other hit the ground.
With a rattling breath, you looked around for anything you could help with.
Woojin ducked away under a few more punches and seemed more tense. He was in pain and the blows with the baseball bat seemed to have hurt him. One precise blow with the brass knuckles would be enough to knock him out.
The gorilla huffed and grumbled like a bear as he tried to get back to his feet.
That's when you spotted a rope behind a trash can. You quickly grabbed it and crawled on all fours to the giant before he could get up and wrapped it around his neck from behind.
He gurgled for air as you pulled the rope tight and tried with all your might to fight his resistance.
You lay on your back and tugged at the rope with all your body weight until your arms trembled, but the gorilla just didn't weaken.
Like a worm, he writhed on the ground, gasping and trying to get rid of the rope. Glancing at Woojin, you winced violently as a blow hit him hard in the face. His head was thrown back and as soon as you saw the blood on his cheek, it flooded your body with renewed energy.
A tortured cry escaped you and you tugged harder on the rope and finally the resistance weakened.
"You stupid asshole! Go to sleep already!", you pressed out and felt the rope cutting into your palms.
Woojin slowly straightened up and fought against the dazed state with all his might. He lunged again, throwing punches so fast you couldn't even follow them.
Just when your muscles were burning so badly you were afraid you'd have to let go, the huge body went limp and you let go of the rope as if you'd been burned by it.
Woojin dodged away under a hard punch at that moment, knocking the thug off his feet and letting a shower of punches rain down on him until he lay motionless.
Getting on his feet again, he swayed briefly and shook out his wrists before rushing to you and kneeling in front of you.
You wrapped your arms around your exposed body and looked at him with those beautiful eyes that he took your face in his hands and said worriedly:
"Are you hurt? Are you okay?"
His voice rolled over with concern and you put a hand on his reassuringly.
"I'm fine. Thanks to you," you replied, still in a raspy voice. In the pale light of the lantern, you could see the blood running down his cheek and you felt guilty that he had caught so many bruises for you.
"You're bleeding. Those fucking assholes..." he cursed, his voice dripping with anger as he saw the blood on your temple. The concern in his eyes overwhelmed you. There was nothing else for him but you at the moment and as he scanned you for more injuries, he saw your torn dress.
He quickly slipped out of his jacket and put it around your shoulders. You pulled it tightly around your body and deeply sucked in his scent that clung to it and it made you immediately feel safe.
"Come on, let's get out of here. Can you walk?" he asked carefully, putting an arm around your stomach to help you to your feet.
"Yes I can do it," you dismissed it, trying to look strong, but in truth your head was throbbing, it hurt to swallow, and your knees were as soft as jello. Reaching the gorilla, he carefully let go of you and picked up your purse, cell phone and wallet that were scattered around him.
He handed them to you and you watched as he knelt down to him and slapped his face.
"Hello!" he shouted.
"Wake up, asshole!", and slapped him again until he grumbled and slowly regained consciousness. He groaned in pain and writhed on the ground, making a pathetic picture.
Then Woojin straightened up again and put a foot right to his throat so he couldn't move any further. Anyway, the guy's face was so swollen that you could barely make out any structure.
Then Woojin looked to you and asked:
"How much did he steal from you?"
After a moment's thought and a look in your pocket, you answered truthfully:
"About 200.000 won."
He patted it down and pulled his wallet out of his pants pocket where he had put your money earlier. Then he took out the bills, counted them out quietly, and handed you a wad of them while the gorilla watched, panting angrily.
"Then this is yours."
He took out the rest of the bills, which definitely were a total over 500.000 won. Apparently you weren't the first one they had robbed tonight.
Then Woojiin handed you the rest of the money as well.
"And this is for the unpleasant trouble he caused you, isn't it my friend?" he asked emphatically, pressing his foot on the gorilla's throat until he gurgled and nodded with a groan.
"Let's go," you muttered, glancing at the unconscious thugs. All of them were covered in blood. Woojin had really raged and from their injuries you could clearly see his anger like a handwriting. He quickly put an arm around you again to support you and together you walked out of the alley onto the street.
After a few shaky steps, he looked at you worried from the side:
"Are you sure you can walk?"
"Yes everything is fine. Stop worrying, it's annoying!" you drove at him a little too harshly than intended.
He raised his eyebrows and before you could react, he lifted you up bridal style and carried you across the street.
"What are you doing? Woojin what..." you stuttered, but he just smiled softly, which silenced you.
"Where are you taking me?" you asked after a while.
"I don't live far from here. I'll take you to my place."
He expected resistance, but his eyebrows furrowed in surprise when you gave in. You were too exhausted and going to his place really seemed like the best idea. Sighing, you relaxed in his arms for the first time and leaned your head against his chest.
His jacket warmed you and his strong arms made you feel safe and secure. He looked down at you as your eyes fell closed and smiled in relief.
At his front door, you opened your eyes again when he lowered you down. As he unlocked the door, he groaned in pain and held his side with a resigned laugh.
"Shit that guy hit me clean with that bat."
A shaky gasp escaped you. Seeing him hurt like that burdened you more than you thought it would and you wanted to take all the pain from him he was suffering because of you. You silently examined his profile and inevitably tears rose again when you saw the bleeding wound on his cheek.
"Woojin?" you murmured in a brittle voice and he looked at you concerned, afraid that something might be wrong with you. Astonished, he watched you step close to him and gently placing a hand against his cheek.
Your lower lip quivered dangerously and he wanted to say something to make the sad gleam in your eyes disappear. But when he said something, he usually made things worse and he didn't want to risk that right now, when you were so close to him. Your breath bounced against his face and his gaze was magically drawn to your lips.
"I'm so sorry," you breathed and your voice broke on the last word as you brushed a strand of hair from his forehead and a bruise was already forming underneath. The guilt was overwhelming and never would you have thought to care so much for the macho man.
Almost panicked, he shook his head and took your hands in his so you looked at him.
"No. Don't. You have nothing to be sorry for. You didn't do anything wrong. It's all those assholes' fault!" he tried to cheer you up, but you just smiled tiredly.
Feverishly he considered and then grabbed his cheek, wincing slightly as it wound was already burning like hell.
"Oh that? That's nothing! I've gotten worse as a boxer!" he said, knocking his fist against his head.
"That's probably why I'm such a idiot, like you always say."
That actually made you smile and you even laughed slightly. He would have loved to jump in the air with relief, but his aching ribs wouldn't allow it. He squeezed your hands gently and then held the front door to the stairwell open for you.
"Come on. Let's go inside and get something good to eat."
Quickly you nodded and let him lead you to the door of his home. As he let you into his apartment and you looked around the room, you noticed that you had never been here before.
You were always at your place or out on the town.
"Do you live alone?" you asked as you kicked off your shoes and he turned on the lights.
The living room was tranquil and empty except for a small red sofa and a television. The kitchen was right next to it and the sink was stacked with pots, plates, silverware and even pizza boxes. Amused, you brushed a line through the dust at the large window through which the light from the street lamps shone.
"Yes. My father and I don't get along well... Tension flew regularly and so I thought it's better to keep my distance," he said, spreading his arms.
"Welcome to my kingdom. Had I known you were coming, I might have cleaned up," he said and you looked over your shoulder in disbelief.
"You wouldn't have."
He snorted in amusement and pulled the blinds closed.
"Yeah you're probably right."
He gathered up a few clothes that were all over the place and tossed them into a pile that only grew.
Despite the mess, which you wouldn't have expected any other way from Woojin, it smelled incredibly good. It was the scent that clung to him as well and was burned into your head.
Meanwhile, the blood on your temple had dried and began to itch.
Actually, you didn't want to know what you looked like. You probably bore more resemblance to a scarecrow.
"Where's your bathroom? I'd like to take a shower."
He was already standing in the kitchen, throwing a handful of ramen into a pot. At the mere sight of it, your stomach grumbled like crazy.
"Down the hall. The door on the left. Towels should be in the closet," he called as he worked, and you smiled as he threw a kitchen towel over his shoulder.
Before you left, you turned back to him.
"Woojin? Can you please not tell Gunwoo about today? He'll just worry unnecessarily."
Woojin pressed his lips together and looked pained.
"I don't like lying to him."
"I know. I'll tell him. I promise. Just not today okay?"
With that, he seemed satisfied and he nodded.
"All right."
In the bathroom, you slipped out of his jacket and carefully folded it. Your dress, however, was beyond saving. You put the torn rag aside and looked at your body in the mirror.
Dark spots were already forming on your hips and on your neck and you got goosebumps when you thought of the large hands that had grabbed you there. Your makeup was completely smeared and there was a wound on your temple from the first blow.
Sighing, you opened your hair and marveled at all the beauty products lined up outside the shower. He had more conditioner than you did. However, that was the last thing you would complain about.
But you made a little mental note when you needed something again to get on his nerves.
As soon as the warm water hit your skin, you sighed in relief. The blood dyed the ground brown and with the water you also tried to wash away the events of the evening.
Hissing, you looked at your wrist. It was swollen from the pumch you had thrown and your knuckles were cracked.
How did the boys always do it without hurting themselves?
Fresh again and with renewed energy, you stepped out of the shower with only a towel wrapped around your body.
"I feel like a new woman ," you commented as you walked into the kitchen, the smell of fresh ramen making your mouth water.
Woojin looked up from the two bowls he was preparing and when he saw your bare legs under the towel, he gulped first.
"I texted Gunwoo that you were drunk as fuck and now snoring on my couch."
That was still better than troubling him with the truth, which is why you nodded and ran your fingers through your hair.
"Thanks."
But you didn't seem to mind just standing in front of him in a towel. By being with Gunwoo all the time, he had often seen you in your pajamas, without makeup, or in sweatpants. It was almost as if he lived with you. Probably you had spent too much time together or you saw him as another brother. The thought tasted bitter in his mouth and he didn't know why.
„Do you have anything I can wear?" you broke the awkward silence, and that's when he finally stopped staring at your legs.
"Sure," he quickly replied and disappeared into the only other door next to the bathroom.
When he came back he handed you a pair of yellow sweatpants and a black shirt with blue flames on it.
Disgusted, you lifted the clothes up with only two fingers.
"You've got to be kidding me..." you commented, and he laughed throatily.
"I'm sure it looks great on you!" he grinned and you wanted to punch him.
"Your clothing style is really questionable sometimes," you muttered, and it was obvious that he had picked out the ugliest things to tease you.
Or maybe he really meant it?

Lyney with a shy readerrrr? 👀 Maybe friends to lovers scenario? 🥺
yessss my Lyney brainrot is growing.
I very much enjoyed writing this one!
WARNINGS: spoilers for the 4.0 archon quest and Lyney's story quest. Very discreetly alludes to SA/mistreatment
reader will be gn!
Tumblr media
Lyney x Shy!reader- friends to lovers!
so I can see this going two ways: childhood friends to lovers or normal friends to lovers.
personally I'm obsessed with the idea of childhood friends to lovers, so I'll be going with that one.
You were one of the children kept by the horrible noble that had Lynette. Lyney saved you along with all the other kids
From then on, the three of you have worked together for "Father"
While Lyney and Lynette focused on their performances, you often worked in sneaking around behind the scenes while people were distracted.
You also helped promote Lyney and Lynette through the steambird
When Lyney and Lynette first met you, you were very quiet.
Whether it was just in your nature or as a response to what you may have gone through in the hands of the noble prior to your meeting
over the course of the years, you slowly opened up to the two-- Lyney more so out of the pair
You did technically owe him your life after all
Lynette picked up on Lyney's feelings early on. He was the first to fall
But he was conflicted.
He knew how dangerous working for the House of the Hearth could be. He was already paranoid about something happening to Lynette, he couldn't bare to think about someone using you against him
But then over time, you too fell for the magician
And of course Lynette noticed that too
Lynette tries as hard as she can to create situations where the two of you are alone together
"Alright! (Lee), Lynette! Today was a good show! What say we grab a bite to eat on the way back?"
"Actually, I'm going the the steambird. Charlotee wanted an interview."
"What? She didn't mention that earlier.."
"We arranged it just moment ago."
"Wait- Lynette-"
"I'll see you two at home."
"..Shall we go get lunch with just the two of us then?"
"..s-sure."
Thankfully, because Lyney is so talkative, one on one dates hangouts are never awkward
He always has something to say, and he always finds a way to include you
"So I was thinking about bringing you on stage in our next show! I wanted to show off some of my natural charm to the audience, but I can't very well use my twin sister for that can I? But I also don't feel like bringing a fangirl on stage, so I figure I should bring up someone I'm comfortable being flirtatious around!"
he was avoiding eye contact as he said this. If you looked hard enough, you could see his ears were pink too.
"A-And that someone is.. me..?"
"Why of course! You... You're special to me after all, (Lee)"
Lynette was cheering from the table a few feet away as she listened in
The relationship was great, you already knew everything about each other.
It was a bit slow moving when it came to affection though
And so, Lyney's new favorite hobby was formed: teasy you
You poor, poor soul.
The SECOND you blush about ANYTHING he does, he's teasing you.
Exhibit A:
Lyney was in the middle of a performance in the street for some kids and their parents,
"Ah! Look everyone, here comes my lovely partner now! (Lee) dear, come here a moment."
Next thing, he's pulling out some flowers from nowhere and turning them into a flower crown for you.
"There! Doesn't (Lee) look pretty? Aww it would seem my beloved is a little shy."
He definetly grabs your chin and looks into your eyes like a smug bastard we love him though
"There's no need to be shy. I'm not lying when I say you are stunning."
Charlotte has written soooo many articles about you two its not even funny
And Fontanians are living for it
Despite his antics, he never takes things too far.
Like he'd never do something to embaress you if he knew you'd be upset or uncomfortable
And if he ever makes you too upset he will always apologise
With flowers he pulls from his hat
But that rarely happens. He's known you for 10 years now. He knows your boundaries like the back of his hand
The first time you tell him you love him, it's after the trial with the traveler- specifically after they've walked away after confronting Lyney about lying to them
"Lyney.."
"..."
"I'm going to see Freminet. He's probably worried after not seeing us for so long."
"..Lyney. You know the traveler just needs some time to process. We didn't mean any harm by hiding it from them."
"I know! I know.. "
"... I'm proud of you. And... I love you"
You have never seen Lyney so genuinely surprised
As a magician and fatuu, he's seen it all. And above all he knows never to let his facial expressions give away what he's thinking
But he let himself slip this once.. He let his love and admiration for you show clearly on his face
"And I love you too, my dove. My darling (Lee)"
Tumblr media
sobbing. I want a Lyney in my life.

Thoughts on 1987 tello?
mostly emotions tbh (I love him very much) (thoughts and nonsense rambling under the cut)
He's so dramatic, he loves singing and dancing, if he puts on a trench coat he has to narrate everything in a noir voice,
He is the most likely out of the 1987 turtles to choose violence. He becomes the Dark Turtle and goes after Shredder. He's ready to leave the punk frogs in danger (I don't remember the situation) and when Leonardo pushes that they have to help even if the frogs still try to attack them, he gives the most "well okay you're the leader" shrug. Like 'I explained our strategic advantage to you plainly and it was clearly too advanced for you to understand so I guess I'll be nice and go along with what you say"
it's not uncommon for him to split off from the group because he'll think of something and have to go get the parts for it. He also just goes off alone sometimes, like as the Dark Turtle or when his car got stolen so he stole the car thief's car in order to chase them and was then himself being chased by the police because the whole reason they stole his car was because they stole something else first and the police recognized the car they were in previously. And he refuses to explain to his bros what's going on because he doesn't want them to know the turtle van got nabbed from him after he spent so long fixing it up. Which situation leads to one of my favorite Raph and Don moments (I have a lot of those aksjfjsj)
Donatello, hanging up the phone: Great, now they guys think I'm a crook. Won't they feel bad when they find out I'm only a liar!
Later, when they find out
Michelangelo: I knew Donatello wasn't a crook!
Raphael, feeling the least bad he's ever felt in his life: No, only a liar
I love how much he wants his bros attention, he's so middle child y'all.
Another favorite moment, in the episode where Splinter becomes human for a day, at the start of it when they're all noticing he's sad (im paraphrasing the heck out of this scene)
Raphael, Leonardo, and Michelangelo: Ohh Master Splinter didn't eat his sushi ☹️ Sushi is his favorite ☹️☹️
Donatello: Well of course he doesn't want sushi, who would want to eat raw fish?
Raphael, Leonardo, and Michelangelo: Our Sensei who loves sushi is not eating sushi... this is such a travesty we must find out what made him sad
Donatello: I hate raw fish so very deeply much
He's so stupid I love him so much. And! He is egotistic and can be quick to anger and does sometimes ignore/not notice other people's feelings, but. He is also truly deeply and believably a sweetheart! He would do anything for his bros and he mostly shows his love through actions.
Like when they all wanted Leonardo to lighten up some, and he had a machine that would supposedly (and did in fact) do just that, but he insisted it was not safe and they were not to use it on him (they did anyway but that's not the point akdjsja). Or the fact that he made the health-o-meter. Or when Michelangelo is crying over the stove and he hugs him so gently and pats him on the back "I know" fjksjfj stop it 😭. Whenever the 87 turtles hug I die from the cuteness and come back to life from the cuteness. you know the saying, cuteness killed the cat but cuteness brought it back, or something like that
Or in Donatello's Duplicate where it's shown that besides his inventions he's doing a lot of little household repairs for them, which gets him frustrated when it piles up too much and is why he makes a clone, who turns out to be evil and by the end of the ep he's like 'I was so silly why wouldn't I be happy? I love fixing things and I love helping my family and I'm so lucky I get to do both!' And I definitely have some feelings about them ending the episode this way (the big donatello crossover involving a karaoke night is to address this), but it is really sweet regardless, he really loves them so much
Okay this is half-formed and mayhaps confusing but you gave me an opportunity so here's a thought that's been in the back of my mind. I like thinking about the ways later cartoons drew from 87, especially balancing it with Mirage. Because Mirage Don is the pacifist. He hates guns. In the mirage comic the 03 HATE episode was based on, it ends with a little speech from Donatello about how he feels bad for killing the terrorists, even though they saved more lives by doing it. When Raph wants to go back to NYC to face the Shredder but Leo insists they (he) needs more time at the farmhouse, Don backs Leo up saying "we aren't the keepers of society, Raph. We never were."
And that's very different from 87 Donatello. But at the same time you can see their similarities when a situation comes up in mirage and Raph (and sometimes Leo) go straight to "We gotta help!" and Donatello counters with "Do we? Can we? What if we make things worse" 87 Donatello has that same pragmatism, even if he feels deeply about a situation he's gonna look at it and say What can I do, not necessarily What should I do. (this works in the positive and the negative akdhsha)
... Anyway that wasn't the thought I was thinking of. The thought I was gonna and will now share is like this: you know that 2012 episode where they go into Mikey's psyche and meet a bunch of different Mikeys? What if 87 Donatello's psyche and the different hims are the other Dons
Because out of all of them I feel like he encompasses something from each of them
So it's like
87 Donatello: Welcome to my Mind. You'll meet all the sides of my compelling and complex personality here. This is my nurturing side
03 Donny: Hey guys! Why do you have your initials on your belt buckles lol
87 bros:
Donatello: He's usually much nicer than that. This is my theatrical side
Rise Donnie, has not noticed guests, strumming imagine guitar: past corridor B, down the stairs past the ibis tapestry--
Donatello: This is my sarcastic side. He also usually covers hormonal stuff
12 Don, tongue stuck out in concentration while he draws himself with big muscles:
Donatello: And this is the part of me that likes to annoy Raphael.
Bayverse D, slurping from a juicebox: :)
Raphael: Well that's all fine, but can you show us the Donatello in charge of all that science genius stuff so he can show us a way out of here?
All Donatellos gathered around like a fairy circle: 👁️ 👁️
87 bros:
Donatello: Oh, they all do science. It wouldn't be fair to the other guys to give it to just one.
Raphael: Of course, that makes sense (hates his life rn)
ALSO guys guys I should probably wait to say this since I don't even have a draft yet akdjshaj. But if you've read this far I think you'll appreciate this: Donatello is going to sing My Way at karaoke night 💜

~Yandere!Sαʅαԃ Fιɳɠҽɾʂ x Reader Headcanons~
Tumblr media

OH MY JDHDJEJFJD DARLING. DARLING. YOU. HAVE BLESSED ME WITH THIS REQUEST THANK YOU I'VE BEEN WATCHING SALAD FINGERS LITERALLY EVER SINCE IT CAME OUT. FOR LITERALLY YEARS. AUGH. THANK YOU
~Enjoy~

Sαʅαԃ Fιɳɠҽɾʂ

~He's definitely not, like, violent at all.
~Probably super delusional. Thinks you're his wife/husband.
~That role can change every now and then, though, he can think you're his partner, or he'll forget and think you're just his pretty friend.
~Really it all depends on the day.
~Gives you a funny nickname based on your real name. As soon as he names you, he's attached.
~"Yes, I...I think I'll call you... (insert weird nickname for your real name)."
~He seems to get horrible flashbacks of...well. You don't know what, exactly. But you're unfortunately far too empathetic- and that's your horrible downfall.
~As soon as you're attempting to help him in any way shape or form, he decides he's elected you as his new play mate.
~But, at first, he kind of flips out. He speaks to objects, and anything that is alive, doesn't speak back to him in English.
~Hearing you speak back to him sort of set him off for a bit. You should've ran as soon as he had his little meltdown over the fact you can speak.
~But you didnt. You were too sweet. You stayed to make sure he would be alright.
~And now he has somebody who actually speaks back to him. He grows fond of having somebody who speaks back to him.
~He often wants to introduce you to his...."friends". Expects you to interact with them, because they are...alive.
~Or are they? They can't be. They're just items.
~The longer you're around him, in this wasteland, the more you follow right along in his insanity.
~He's really not that dangerous, honestly- physically, at least. He won't hurt you. But everything that happens will get right into your mind. You might because just as mentally ill as he is.
~He collects your hair.
~He likes to caress your skin.
~Claims that it's like a lovely massage for his fingers.
~"You just hold...such a wel-welcoming...texture...You're very...smooth...."
~He touches you so much it gets uncomfortable.
~He also says various things that come off as perverted or freakish to you. Doesn't really mean to sound perverted on purpose, it's more of a compliment. He's being open with you...
~You may find him in his "safety cupboard" every now and then. Crying. He can't get out of his own mind. In the back of his mind, he is aware they something is horribly wrong with him.
~Hearing your little knock on the cupboard door to make sure he is okay is the most wonderful sound he could hear. You've come to check on him! For a playdate! Ahh, he's missed you!
~...He missed you even though you've been there the whole time. Sometimes he thinks you're somebody or something else, or that you're not there at all.
~Calls you his angel.
~"My...My very own, pretty angel, has come for me."
~Mr. Fingers can tell when you're being mentally drained from it all. He just thinks you need to rest, that you need to have some tea and soup.
~Maybe he thinks you're sick.
~And in a way, he's doing it on purpose.
~Being so lonely just for you to give him attention, trying to get you to like him and feel bad for him. He doesn't really realize he's doing anything on purpose, he thinks everything is okay, and he washes all those bad thoughts away when he thinks of them....you should do the same.
~He wants you down to his level.
~You take care of him, let him take care of you.
~But he can't take care of you unless you need to be taken care of.
~He doesn't even need to do anything special. Just to be himself and getting into the situations- even if they aren't real situations, even if they're just all in his head- is enough for you to start a downward spiral.
~Once you're trapped in this hell hole of a world, you can't escape.
~You don't even remember how you got here.
~You hardly remember anything before him. Just simple flashbacks and foggy memories every now and then.
~Dislikes how he can't control you like he controls all his little friends. They're objects. He can make them do things that add onto whatever story he's creating in his head.
~And you? Oh, you have a mind of your own.
~This can lead to some arguing in the future.
~You're always the one to apologize to him. It's the same thing that always happens: You two bicker, he gets upset and mad for a while, then he gets sad and walks away to cry and be alone, you come and apologize, he forgives you, and it repeats again.
~Really, you're the only thing keeping him even SLIGHTLY sane (which isn't much because he's too far gone, unfortunately). He wants to hold onto that, even if it means pulling you into his dark hole of madness.
~You're just another of his favorite playthings. You're his favorite toy. His favorite thing to touch and stroke, his favorite thing to look at, his favorite thing to speak to, ect.
~You're trapped, and he hardly even had to do anything to get you to be trapped with him...
~He's delusional. He's manipulative without even realizing it, and he guilt trips without even thinking about it.
~You should've never even spoken to him.

This is probably a really stupid question, but I feel like people are all over the place with theories regarding what feels like a relatively straightforward situation to me, so I need to ask: where is the idea coming from that Fyodor is going to come back possessing someone like Nikolai or Sigma?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Forgive me if I'm just telling you things you already know/is obvious, I don't mean to sound arrogant I swear 😭, but to me it's pretty clear that Fyodor bodyswapped with the helicopter pilot after he died? Just going by the face alone, the eyes have the little vampire possession lines, he has the same eyebrows, and overall the face looks just like the pilot's to me. The pilot stabbed and killed Fyodor the same way the guard did in the castle flashback (to make us connect them in our minds), and after the guard got Fyodor's blood on him he started being affected a bit after Fyodor died. We can then surmise based on the final page of the chapter that Fyodor eventually resurrected in the body of the guard, said body taking on Fyodor's likeness/face (without the scar he had previously anymore), and the guard's face being swapped onto Fyodor's previous body that's now dead. With that in mind, the same thing happened here; Fyodor's been revived in what was previously the pilot's body, and the two bodies swapped faces, effectively making it so that the pilot is the one that's now dead/died, and not Fyodor. This post describes it much better than I just did asdlfkgld (additionally, also saw a theory that the swapped face of the person Fyodor bodyjacks takes on all the scars/injuries Fyodor has ever had, hence all the strangely deliberate looking scars on the pilot's face he definitely didn't have before). Having said all this, I don't think anyone else is in danger of being possessed by Fyodor right now? I definitely think there's juicy and terribly tragic potential for Nikolai to suffer that fate if he one day tries to kill Fyodor (which may be why he's even wanting to do it in the first place, if he's the only one who knows Fyodor's deal.... Idk, this reveal opened up too many possibilities for Fyolai and all of them fucking destroy me), but the pilot's face seems to prove to me that he or anyone else isn't at risk right now. That being said, I have no idea what exactly Fyodor's blood is doing when he just randomly kills people while he's still alive, since he doesn't need to resurrect then... can he clone himself in others while his main body is still alive?? Would he do that?? 😭 I doubt it, we haven't seen that yet, which is why I think his blood's/ability's primary usage is bodyswapping to revive himself after he's killed, and so since his target for that right now is clear, I don't think Nikolai etc are in danger yet (emphasis on yet). ...I hope this is coherent and not mansplain-y 😭😭😭 don't get me wrong, I definitely LIKE all the theories for who Fyodor could possess, they all have such great potential and I'm excited to see whatever havoc he ends up wreaking now; I've just been confused as to where all these ideas are coming from for the current situation, since to me he clearly bodyswapped into the helicopter pilot.
Ok, so I hadn't seen Soup's analysis here - that's a very good explanation of what Fyodor's ability likely is, and I'll be sticking with that until something comes along to contradict it.
Not to worry, it's very coherent! I did say at the top of my original post that the most likely possibility was that he was going to end up swapping with a vampire guard anyways, I just... think it's a bit boring, is all. I also, admittedly, forgot what the pilot looked like since I hadn't looked back at the previous few chapters. It definitely looks like him. I suppose I, and many others, are just a little miffed that the helicopter fucking landed in a fuel tank fire and Dazai just pulled out an intact, non-burned body, and Fyodor apparently got away with the body of the helicopter pilot. Somehow. It's just. Ugh. So, I'd rather have some fun thinking about who could get demon possessed that actually has some stakes on the cast other than "oh no, Dostoevsky still isn't dead" - because we all knew that lmao
Well, now this has me curious why the arm was severed. Probably to intentionally leave a body part (the wounded hand in particular) as a way to throw Dazai off the mark. As for how he got out of the helicopter. I guess we'll find out. It feels kind of pointless to theorize. The only thing I could think of would be that Nikolai used his ability, but that would be incredibly annoying because that would make his reaction to the severed arm... an act. Just like pretty much everything else in this arc. And honestly, I'm not sure how many more "at least it was funny"s I have in me. So, here's to hoping Fyodor was able to get out on his own somehow.
Having said that, Soup's suggestion for the nature of the ability is actually very fitting with the themes and makes Fyodor a hell of a lot more interesting. It's somewhat better than just "he escaped again" and if this is truly what his ability is, then I look forward to seeing it get elaborated on in future arcs.
Any further thoughts on the ability from my end has to do with me trying to figure out the nature of the scars on Fyodor in the flashback, Hawthorne, Ivan, and now the pilot. I still think brain surgery with a blood scalpel is a funny answer.

Can I req reader that used to be a heavy drinker and theyve already been clean for months but readers old drinking buddies are pushing them to drink again and Yae Miko, Ei, Kuki Shinobu (separately) got mad with your old friends (also gender neutral please!)
Drunkard turns into normal person(real)!!
I was supposed to post this yesterday, though, here's one of the works that I was able to finish today. I'll get to work on the others in a bit after I get some rest.
Anyhow, enjoy the work! I'll be back to posting and working on your requests now. My passion and dedication to writing has been rekindled again after a few weeks have passed. I apologize for the delay of these works.
Tumblr media
Yae Miko
Before, you were once a heavy drinker. You’d head out every time and anytime your drinking buddies had invited you to another drinking session. It had started to become an addiction; it had started to be more dangerous for you and your health. Someone had to put a stop to it, and that was your girlfriend, the cunning, prestigious, captivating, and teasing Head of the Grand Narukami Shrine, none other than Yae Miko.
To her expectations, you eventually stopped drinking for the sake of your own health… and partly also for her. Which also meant that you had stopped seeing your drinking buddies more often due to the fact that you aren’t going to be drinking anymore anytime soon.
It had been months ever since you went out to drink with your buddies. If you had to be honest, not drinking alcoholic beverages anymore have definitely helped your mental health and you’ve never felt better than you did when you used to drink! You’re quite proud of being months clean, especially with how much of an addict you were!
And today, you just so happened to coincidentally meet some familiar faces that afternoon as you were visiting the Yae Publishing House to check up on how Miko is doing behind the counters. You heard one of them call out to you, making you shift your attention from your girlfriend to whoever had called out to you.
“S/O! It’s been a while since we drank, eh?” The man waved as he approached you with a smile.
You nodded, “Yeah. Uhm, what brings you guys here? You here to buy a light novel?” You questioned, raising a brow at your old friends.
They laughed and chuckled at your words,
“No, you silly goose! We came here to ask why you aren’t tagging along to our night-outs anymore!” The other man folded his arms as he eyed at you.
“It’s been months, you know… we’re kind of missing your chaotic behavior a bit! We still have as much as fun as we did back then. You should definitely come tag along on tonight’s night-out!” A female voice sighed as she placed her hands on her hips.
You gulped, “Apologies, I’m gonna have to pass, I decided to stop drinking a few months ago.” You rested your palm on the back of your neck.
Their eyes widened, broadened even… eh, same thing. They stared at you in pure shock and disbelief, what they heard just now… that was real, wasn’t it? But the person they knew wouldn’t say such things like that. Just what exactly happened to you in a span of these few months, what made you drastically change?
Yae Miko narrowed her purple eyes at these ‘friends’ of yours. She was clearly starting to get irritated by this whole situation, maybe even a little intrigued.
“Where’s the fun in that?! You know, I don’t really know what changed you, but still… you should definitely tag along!” A man exclaimed, nudging your shoulder lightly as they laughed light-heartedly.
“Have I not made myself clea-“
“Nope, zip it! Sorry S/O but we aren’t going to tolerate the nonsense that you’re blurting as of right now. He’s right, you might be busy and all but that doesn’t mean you can’t have a bit of fun every once in a while!“ Another sound of a guy spoke to you.
Growing annoyed by their hopeless and pitiful attempts, Yae Miko simply could not just stand-by and not do anything about this idiotic matter. The Chief Editor hated- no, despised the idea or thought of you returning back to your former self all because she had allowed you to run off with your old friends.
“Ah, ah, ah… I don’t believe there’ll be a chance for your dear friend over here to accompany you guys on this ‘hangout’ of yours. My beloved has better things to do than spend time with you drunkards, isn’t that right, dear?~” Yae Miko smiled at you, though, just by her expression alone… you could clearly make out what she was trying to get across to you; “Play along.”
“That’s right, I do in fact have to accomplish some of my projects. I’m only here at the Yae Publishing House to check up on how Miko is doing so far in the day.” You sighed, rubbing your forehead as if to say you were a bit stressed out by many of these, totally not made-up last minute ‘projects’ of yours.
Their faces dropped and they frowned at your words. They were going to reply to your words and open up their mouths until they were again interrupted by the Guuji.
“Now, now… how about all of you skedaddle from here and go to that bar you all drink at. However, my lover here won’t be joining you fortunately. Besides, they have clearly stated that they do not want to drink with your group again, hence… they won’t be drinking at all anytime soon as long as I’m around.”
A shiver went down their spines, they hesitantly apologized to both you and Yae before hurrying up and out of the place, running up the stairs. You shifted your attention back to Yae after your old pals have scurried off deeper into the city.
“Yae… there was definitely some anger in your words just now. Are you perhaps… mad at them?” You questioned Yae, eyeing at her.
Yae Miko sighed, “Why would I not be? They wouldn’t stop pestering you to come with to another night-out where you’d eventually be persuaded into drinking. For all of my hard work to go to waste in just one night is rather saddening, don’t you think? With how much effort I had put in just to convince you to stop drinking was quite tedious you know. Now, returning back to our conversation just a moment ago…”
Tumblr media
Raiden Ei
Ei didn’t like the idea of you drinking once she saw how drunk you’d get after going to the tavern whenever there’s a chance. With how much of a heavy drinker you are; you’d always return home so drunk to the point where you can barely keep your balance and know who you’re talking to at the current moment. She made sure to scold you whenever you drank. Though, she always was passive-aggressive with her words when it came to scolding you.
Once Ei had decided that enough was enough, she had forbidden you from drinking. In fact, she commanded you to not lay a finger on one alcoholic beverage ever again. No matter how much you had opposed to this, in the end not even you, the lover of Inazuma’s deity could even stop her. So, you forfeited, finding it pointless in trying to argue with her any further… deciding it might have been for the better good of your health.
Nowadays, whenever you return home from work to rest and snuggle up with Ei… you no longer reek of alcohol, which pleases your lover because the stench of alcohol would get to her. Another reason as to why she had banned you from drinking.
However, until one night… where you received a letter from your old pals. You could sense Ei glaring at you and at the letter as well behind you. You turned to look at her,
“...D-do you want to read it with me?” You asked, hesitantly.
She stared into your eyes as you spoke, she shook her head, “I’d rather you read it out loud to me. By the way, do tell… who wrote this letter to you?” Ei asked, raising a brow at you as she folded her arms.
You sighed, “It was from my friends, the ones that I used to drink with. I’m not really sure why all of a sudden, they sent me a letter.”
Opening up the letter, you began to read it out loud for Ei. As you were reading, you could feel the atmosphere around you tense up… she must’ve disliked the contents of the letter. Once you finished reading, she took the letter from your hands.
“Hey what was that for-“
How rude it truly was for them to try and guilt trip you into drinking with them again? They should be punished for it. A nuisance really… why must you keep in contact with them still? A bad influence they are… if Ei were to let you go with them, she’s sure that you would’ve returned to your old habits with no hesitation. No doubt in that at all.
She scoffed, pulling you closer towards her. She glared at you, folding her arms. You chuckled light-heartedly, clearly understanding what she was trying to get across.
“Don’t worry… I won’t go with them. How about I whip something up for the both of us? Though, I’m not sure if you’ll be of much help in the kitchen…”
Ei deadpanned at you, “I’m a bit offended by that… though, just this once I’ll let it slide. I’ll be waiting to eat your food, in the meanwhile… I shall ask of some of the guards at front to fetch me some Dango Milk from that stall…”
“Alright, it sounds like a plan then! I’m gonna head straight to cooking now! See you in a few!” You grinned at her. She smiled at you softly, nodding her head before turning around to command the guards at front to order the sweets from that stall… specially to order all the Dango milk they could offer.
Tumblr media
Kuki Shinobu
Before you and Shinobu started dating, you were a drunkard. You’d drink so much every single day that you’re now well-known as a regular customer or “that drunkard” among the restaurants and bars. You also drank a lot with some friends of yours, the only time you’ll ever see them is when you’re drinking or maybe you might run into them in the city.
Though you may be known as a heavy drinker and the well-known drunkard in Inazuma city… the citizens of the city acknowledged that although you may drink a ton, you are a good person at heart. You were popular among the kids, as you would hang out with them whenever you had the chance.
From time to time, you’d give the kids a sip of some of the alcoholic beverages, and now they refuse to drink any of it again in the present time and also in the future with how bad it tastes. The first time you lent them a sip, they began to question how you could drink something so disgusting and bad? The parents of these children are relieved to know that you aren’t trying to influence them into drinking after you expYlained why you gave them a sip of alcohol.
A drunkard that lectures kids to not drink any alcohol at such a young age, and if they ever do so wish to drink in the future… drink moderately at least where you won’t get drunk. Ironic, isn’t it?
Now that you’re dating Shinobu, you noticed that you haven’t been drinking at all these days. Perhaps… this is because she kept scolding and giving you an earful whenever you’d arrive home drunk, go to her drunk, or just be drunk in general.
This was no way for how you should be living your life right now at all. Thus, led to Shinobu negotiating with the bartenders to not serve you any alcoholic drinks anymore. Fortunate for her, they were very much understanding, as they could understand where she was coming from.
After a few months have passed, you’ve completely stopped drinking. Shinobu couldn’t help but feel like a proud mom with you overcoming your addiction to drinking. After all, it wasn’t an easy thing to achieve. The day today was going as smoothly as ever, until some familiar faces had bumped into you and Shinobu.
“Hey! Watch where you’re going- S/O?!”
“…” Shinobu recognized their faces the moment her eyes landed on them. Before they could even get another word out, she grabbed your hand and walked in the other direction. You were confused as to why she had pulled this stunt when your old friends were trying to strike up a conversation with you.
Once you were further away from where you were, you immediately asked her,
“Shinobu, what was that all about? Why’d you run off with me like that?” You asked, looking at her very puzzled.
Shinobu turned to look at you, sighing, “…They were going to try and pressure and persuade you into drinking again. I could sense it, my guts told me, and I just couldn’t ignore that feeling. I don’t want you to become an addict again like you were back then.”
You blinked at her.
She stared into your eyes for a few seconds before quickly averting them.
“Oh. Well, makes sense… you’re my girlfriend and all and you just want what’s best for my health!” You chuckled at your words as you grinned.
“I promise you that I won’t ever go back on my word. I promised you I’d stop drinking and I’d never think of breaking that promise that I swore to you.” You reassured her.
Shinobu sighed of relief, her cheeks slightly red, “Good. Now, how about we go and check in on the boss? I’m a bit worried he’s causing a ruckus again…”
“Yeah sure, let’s go and find Itto and the rest of your gang! Uhm… after we do that, can we perhaps go back to that street? I saw a stall and it was selling one of my favorite dishes.” You asked nervously.
Shinobu gave you a calm nod. Removing her mask and pulling it down, she kissed you on your cheek. (If you’re tall, then pretend she got on her tippy toes to kiss your cheek, if you’re short, then think of the opposite.)
You blushed, looking at her with widened eyes. You felt your face getting hotter and hotter by each passing second. Though, you were not complaining… you could get used to being kissed like that by your girlfriend in public more.

If you ever so wish, go check out my Ao3 account. I've posted a new work over there, completely unrelated to Genshin, but it's about the show "Wednesday". Wenclair is canon, you cannot tell me otherwise. Let me believe in what I want.
My Archive of Our Own account, or otherwise known as Ao3, is Royy_Bluminex.
Please, ignore my first two works... It was a strange phase of mine hahaha. Well, enjoy reading those old works of mine if you wish. I can't say that I'm exactly proud of it... So, if you see something that you weren't expecting, just keep your mouth shut.
Tumblr media
Oh wow. Uhm. I'm writing this (this very sentence) like 20-30 minutes after...
My mother just informed me that my dearest cat, Mio, has died. My father seemed to not notice him resting under the car and ran over him accidentally.
Death is unpredictable, which is why you must be prepared to face it.
R.I.P Mio, you were a great cat. I'm glad I took care of you while we still had time.

Can I just say the storyboards for Step Into the Great Unknown highlight even further what the song itself was already highlighting. Because the song is basically just each member of the gang one by one deciding to commit to finding Candace.
It starts with Phineas, he's been Candace's little brother literally his whole life. We see the most of their relationship. There is very little that fazes him, and he wears his heart on his sleeve. He adores his older sister and would go to the ends of the earth without hesitating for her. He's an inspirational type of leader, so he tends to be the one to provide the gang direction and encouragement when they start showing doubts and that's exactly what he does here. The one who kind of lays out the situation to the gang but also is the first to affirm he's going anyway.
And then Ferb. He's been Candace's little brother for years now too at this point, and of course he stands by Phineas for most things. But this movie does show that Ferb cares just as much about Candace in his own way, with what he chooses to say and the affection Candace gives him. He's a man of action so he demonstrates his position by quietly joining in the dance. And Ferb is almost always on Phineas's side, but while Phineas is defined by being completely unfazed by nearly everything, Ferb DOES get fazed by more than Phineas, though less than the rest of the gang. He's generally cautious about supernatural threats as such, so unknown threats would be something that are more likely to give him pause even if they aren't supernatural per se, and we've seen him avoid Candace before due to this aversion. But aside from that aversion he is usually as unfazed as Phineas. Of course he wouldn't leave either of his siblings hanging.
And then Isabella joins in the song. The girl across the street. Who has also known Candace for a long time. Literally future sister-in-laws, but already basically sisters. Isabella and Candace sort of have a relationship built on mutual understanding. They occasionally talk together about crushes, and team up when a situation is gender specific. Candace is one of Isabella's fireside girls. Of course Isabella would join. She's said no to Phineas about dangerous things before, but only rarely. When someone they care about is on the line, there's no way. She's as tough and doesn't hesitate to put herself in danger unless there is literally no reason to. Candace is more than enough reason to. For this she'll follow Phineas to the end of the universe, and take the lead if she has to.
Buford and Baljeet are the last to join. They've only been part of the gang since this summer. So they're the most hesitant. And I do think when it comes to personal safety they are a bit more sensitive (see Buford freaking out NOTLP, Baljeet being paralyzed by indecision in Primal Perry, Buford freaking out about Baljeet's safety in the Beak... those two are the most prone to panic in general). But when push comes to shove on something as important as saving the tri-state area, or rescuing Candace, they're in on it too. They don't really WANT to deal with all this scary stuff... but to them the alternative of not going along isn't an option either.
All of these kids love Candace so much. She may be obsessed with getting her brothers caught, but in the process she's become big sister to all 5 of them. I've said it before I'll say it again. I LOVE the sense of community in the series.
And it's so uncommon for the kids to be nervous about something. So the fact that they are nervous does help raise the stakes a bit. And Phineas has to muster all of his leadership to say hey: This will be scary, you don't have to come but I can't just leave her. And the other kids going. Yeah well. Not without us.
They just all care about each other so much.

I acctually love ur writing so much so if this idea sounds crap then u dont need to do it lol but if possible, could you do like a prompt 20 (the wee "I hate u" "I hate u too" and then they kiss thing) on the list? I've literally never heard of that one before but it sounds quite interesting; also if possible could it be a Tintin x female reader? Like, I got a wee story in my head; they r work partners but dont get along too well sometimes but it's because they are hiding feelings or something; then eventually when working on a case, that wee "I hate u" thing, happens in a room whilst there on a boat after a disagreement about something (possibly about protecting Chang but that's just the first thing that comes to my mind). If u have a story in ur head already then yours is probably better so u dont need to do this if u dont want, or if it sounds rubbish (I'm not a writer as u can probably tell lol) and ur NSFW things r acctually so good so if u want to add like... yk.. stuff between Tintin and the reader to this then feel free, no pressure tho. I'm not right in the head and idk if any of that made sense :)
DAMM THAT IS A LONG ASS BIG REQUEST-
I read every little word regardless and bro??? Not me in love with the idea?? Even more because you used the prompt list! (I forgot about it lol). Don't you worry my dear unknow person! I'm much worse in the head and undestand what you tried to say lol.
[Name] = reader (female)
Warning: i'll have to do split it in two parts. This one is more context,have mentions of killing and curse, the second will have a little bit of spicy. I'll put the warning there too. It's a long ass reading so, well,you've been warned but i hope you like it!
Prompt: "i hate you!" "I hate you too!" And make out.
Tumblr media
There's people that look at each other and just click right away. You and Tintin did it too,in a very...very not that friendly way.
You,a newbie jornalist woman,ready to go to hell and heaven for the best history to write,and Tintin,a veteran at this point,fellow jornalist that would give you great advices for you to have a good start. That was everyone's first thought,but.
You were a bit childish and chaotic exactly because you didn't cared about what you had to do for your story,always complaining about Tintin's plans because most of them demanded time to act. You wanted now and against his words,you jump on the danger making him go right after you.
Yes, he's reckless,but you? 100% worse.
You two did click,but in a hateful way. Haddock aways tried to stop your arguments,never really did it because both of you didn't stop,wanting to always have the last word. It was hard to bear,for everyone,day by day looked more that you two grow the hate from each other.
Not that wrong,but not completely right too. Not saying that he didn't really hate you,believe me,he do. But he hate even more how much time he pass distracted looking at you, taking every little detail. The way your hair is always in a pony tail and showing a little bit of a tongue when you was thinking hard,the little smile you do at something that you writed on your article,your eyes, cute nose...lips...
And you? On the same board. You just love seeing him having a little time with Milu,his happy smile gets you everytime. The freckles on his cheeks,not even getting start with that cute topknot,blue eyes...his hands...
If someone see the real situation, would be laughing by how comic it all is. This,until you really messed up,almost costing someone's life beside yours. It's ok when is yours,you know how dangerous things can be but,other person...this is a really bad thing. The worst? It was Chang and Haddock as well,basically Tintin's family.
You two,along with Haddock had just saved Chang from kidnappers that focused on him because of some problems with the Wang family,but some of the mens was still following you all,Tintin said for you to stay with them (Chang and Haddock) to help if something goes wrong but you,like always, didn't listen and run alongside him. Just like he thought,some of the guys managed to go from the back near from where Chang and Haddock was,almost getting the both of them. Because of you.
Luckly,being close enough you two run right back knocking the guys down and going away as fast you all could,back for captains ship. It wasn't that hard to say how mad he was with you and he had all the rights for it.
"I asked for one thing [Name],didn't you see how our situation was before doing your reckless plan to just rush forward like a suicidal person?!" - he didn't raised his tone just yet,but the anger was pretty clear in each word.
"Yeah yeah,i'm sorry ok?! I thought i could-"
"Oh well,that's new,you thinking at once. Not even surprised that the only moment you stop to think end up almost getting two people killed!" - he cut you mid sentence.
This,you hated this on the most. If he's right,he use it against you without mercy. Your eyes rolled in annoyance,making him even more angry if that is possible.
"I said sorry,if you don't want it don't take it,i'll not lost time with you now"
You shrug it off,turning your back and walking away for your room. He look at Haddock and Chang for a moment,making sure both of them were ok before leaving to follow you,the discussion didn't ended yet. Haddock tried to stop him,even Chang,but your nonchalant "sorry" get under his skin to the point where both knew what was about to happen.
He didn't even knocked,just open the door looking right at you hearing you groan annoyed.
"Forgot how to knock?-"
"Don't start" - he close the door with a small thud and walk closer.
"Do you know what type of consequences your acts could have caused today? The world don't roll around you [Name]"
"I said sorry already,didn't i? What more do you want?? For me to ask for forgiviness on my knees in front of you??"
"You didn't mean your words,you just said what was necessary to dodge the conversation"
"Conversation my ass,you just come here to lash your stupid anger on me"
He open just a bit wide his eyes,seeming both surprised and confused. How you could be this dense? How you can not see that your careless actions affect people around you too?
"Stupid?? Do you undestand,that what you did almost cost the captain and Chang's life?!" - still didn't scream,but was close.
"They know how to handle-"
"Chang was hurted and Captain was in a ambush [Name]!"
Now,he screamed. You even flinched slightly by how sudden this was,you messed up. Badly.
"Explain then! How they could handle an ambush with one hurted and having only captain against armed people?! How?!"
His voice was loud. Frustration,anger even sadness was there, it's rare to see him like this but how could he not feel this way? That was a close,really close one,if you two wasn't near enough to run back to help them...
"They- they're not child for us to-"
"I TRUSTED YOU!" - it was you openning your eyes wide in surprise.
"I trusted that you would hear,at least this time,my request to stay and help them! Why you always like this?! Why you think so little about people's life?! Isn't captain your friend too?! You don't care about him?! What is wrong with you?!"
Tintin wasn't even lashing,it was a honest vent. He reach the limit with you,this was his try to maybe stop this hateful thing trusting one of the most important thing for him,but this is how you respond? He's right,but not about everything.
"What is wrong?...let's start by the fact that you always make me disappear from the view. I'm a jornalist too,but they never look at my work,only yours! Why i don't care about my life? Is to at least have a little spot since you take everything for yourself! That's way i throw myself forward,trying to get it before you or else everything was for nothing! Being journalist is my dream but you-" - you had to pause to breath,it was a lot of things,basically venting like he did.
"I don't want to be famous. Never wanted,just one time,i only want one time that my story get readed by people...i..." - you stop again,letting a deep breath.
"I know that what i did was wrong and i'm sorry,really sorry" - your tone growing more sincere and remorseful by what you did. But soon,the frustration come back - But dammit,i don't know what to do anymore! It's always you! Tintin that,Tintin this,Tintin Tintin Tintin!"
You finished with an angry groan under your breath. He could tell that at least this time your sorry was genuine,but something still linger on the back of his mind. You almost get them killed for a selfish reason. Not that the ginger-haired boy didn't see it happening. Both of you writed articles but only his was on the newspaper,of course it was unfair with you,even more because he readed and it was good,your details,explanations about the case,overal view of everything. He was still angry but...confused?
"Why is always you?!" - he snap back when you quickly turn to face him,walking closer.
"I'm a journalist too,i make articles too but is always,only about you!"
"It's...not my fault-"
"Yes it is!"
"Don't change the subject! You still risk other peoples life for a selfish reason,just because you envy me??"
Neither him knew what he was saying about exactly. Talking back by impulse,his words get you off guard. He was right again,wasn't he? Being this arrogant towards him since the first day was just...envy. You wanted be like him,be him. How embarrassing this sounds, even more than the other little thing on the back of your mind.
"I...what are you talking about? Me?? Envying you? Oh come on. Drop the attitude little man,you're only embarrassing yourself" - internally,you was making a face palm at how childish this comeback sounded.
"Embarrassing myself? You're the one acting like a little kid because of something foolish like envy. Grow up [Name]. You're only embarrassing yourself"
"You didn't- you know what?! Fuck you!" - you give a step closer looking at him still angry.
"Say what?!-" - he step forward too.
"That's it! I'm done with your shit! I said sorry already,even said more than i should. I'm tired of your baby face in front of me!"
"Said the one who don't even have a brain to think properly about her own decisions!"
Again, another step near. Every curse was right followed by a step until you two were close looking deep in each other's eyes. Your voices sounded angry, your eyes not and you both realized it. That feeling on the back of your head tingling by the proximity...

did tsukasa cause problems for his family when he was young how to kill parents?? Did tsukasa lose control and amane considered him dangerous and killed him??
That's the million dollar question hahahaha
There are several possibilities, and this is one of them. Her problem is that she is very obvious, easy to assume. It's one of the first things that comes to mind when we think about what happened to the twins.
I like a specific possibility, I'll tell you which one.
We saw that Tsukasa, after uniting with the creature, granted a wish to one of the temple's exorcists (sorry, I forgot his name hahaha) the result of this wish was the death of the temple leader.
You noticed that he was very scared, didn't you?
The creature can know what people's deepest desires are without them having to say it, we saw it doing this with Kou, and with Tsukasa himself.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So I imagine that Tsukasa and the creature together went around fulfilling people's wishes, the problem was paying for these wishes. Let's also think about negative desires, as happened with the temple exorcist, who wished the leader would die.
Perhaps some of these desires led to one or more tragic consequences. Can you imagine Tsukasa telling his mother "I'll make your wish come true, mom!" and soon after someone she knew dies?
Or if he's already done this to other people in front of her. Did you see the way he looked at her?
Tumblr media
If she noticed and was sure there was something wrong with Tsukasa, it was because he did this kind of thing in front of her, or with her.
Imagine finding your child talking to himself in his room about things like this:
Tumblr media
The tragedy happened because the family was probably trying to help Tsukasa get that thing off him, but as we saw, it didn't work. Nene was taken away just for trying to take little Tsukasa out of the red house, so…. What did the creature do when they tried to take the boy away from her?
Amane tried to stab her directly, he injured Tsukasa where she was, but it seems that that didn't solve the problem either.
Tsukasa didn't seem to want to let go of that thing either, the two wanted to stay together. Basically, it was an extremely difficult problem to solve, Amane found an extreme solution that didn't work, he killed his brother but the thing is still there.
So in short, one of the hypotheses I like most is that his family was trying to help him get rid of that creature, but they couldn't, we don't really know the consequences of that, but we imagine that it ended in the deaths of some people.
It is worth remembering that we cannot exclude Amane from this entire situation. There is something in his past that he cannot tell, something that is worse than killing his own brother, what would it be?
He doesn't like talking about it, he doesn't like remembering it and he's afraid they'll find out, especially Yashiro, because as Tsuchigomori said, "she would stop being good to him" in other words, he did something terrible.
So, the blame is also pointed at Amane. Who knows, perhaps he decided that it was better for everyone in the house to die along with the creature? The house is afraid of fire, and when it returns to its original state we see it all on fire. Which means he could have set it on fire with everyone inside.
I don't know if I really believe in the hypothesis that they all died because of the fire, since their ghosts don't have burn marks, but the fire is definitely present.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I don't know, the secret is in Hanako's sin, what did he do that was so terrible that it's worse than killing his own brother?

Ellie eyes flutter with a blur using her claw to rub so she can see clearly she looks up
Ellie: Uhh I need a boyfriend…
Getting out of bed, Ellie went skip breakfast, taking a shower, putting her lovely dress on and tira with her dark green fluffy coat around her elegant Cinderella color blue dress top along with her white skirt that sparkles as she twirls with glee then opens the door heading out of the royal area because she was in a mood for a hotdog but of course if she says it in her area they would laugh and mock. Ellie had to go a different route: the area where the best hot dogs were was in " Not Mafia Town". She knew it was the worst idea to go alone so she called Blitzo to help her out.
Blitzo: Hey girl! How's it going didn't get any cock yet?
Ellie: Uhhh no…. I just wanted a hot dog and I knew going by myself would be dangerous.
Blitzo: Well you came to the right bodyguard girl I can grant ya full protection like this rifle, pistol, handgun, arrow, chainsaw, needles, and silencer really does work smoothly.
Ellie: I think I'll be happy whatever doesn't get me shot.
Blitzo: I got ya back babe~
The two imps enter "Not Mafia Town" one of the most dangerous places to enter in the ring of wrath. Everywhere you would go someone would be either shot, building would be burn into flames, deadly car chases, and torture. It made Ellie's skin crawl as Blitzo would cuss out a storm or shoot anyone that got near him or Ellie. For that Ellie kind of questioned Blitzo and his weird ways but she was grateful to trust him as a friend. Finally a nearby hotdog stand.
Blitzo: You think you can add cheese and hot sauce on that dog Senior ~
Hot Dog Imp: Sure I guess gonna cost ya more
Blitzo: Fuck it lay it on me
Ellie: One hotdog with extra mustard please
( BANG, BANG, BANG)
Blitzo: Are you fucking kidding me!?
Ellie look back to see a gang of sharks shooting there guns as one of them grabbed Ellie by the waist taking her in the car using rope and ducktape. Blitzo was fighting and shooting more of the Mafia sharks as he turns back to see Ellie kidnapped
Blitzo: ELLIE!!!!!! ( CLANK)
Crimson: That's for fucking shooting most of my men prick!
The head boss of the Mafia known as Moxie's father used a loaded gun to knock Blitzo out as he was dragged but in a sack being taken away like Ellie. In the car a good looking around as she sees a very attractive imp that wasn't like any others in the car who was looking the other side but Ellie kept her gaze on him he then look back as she turned away fast with her face turning into pink which made this rattlesnake imp chuckle. Ellie was already drawn to him but it seems strange how a cowboy like him can be involved with the Mafia gang.
Crimson: Alright cowboy show me what you got!
Striker: First of all I'm kinda rusty haven't kidnapped anyone for a while so this bastsrd I had to fucking deal with from the harvest moon festival and my lair of the ring of wrath!
Blitzo: OH YOU'RE THE SEXY ASS COWBOY!
Striker: And this pretty little thing is a royal which I despise but I think I wanna keep her for a while. She sparks my interest ( Place his claw caressed her neck)
Crimson: Good start cowboy, need more fuckers like you around come with me to the officer we have some discussing to do
Striker: Right boss, I'll be back with you later princess ~
Ellie: Uhhh…
In the office Crimson discuss the situation between why he wanted a royal because most of the royals are powerful compared to the mafia industry so what Crimson wants vengeance and goes out selecting a royal to experimented with no mercy this is when he calls on Striker and cowboy rattlesnake who would kill a royal in a heartbeat. However the Mafia crew is going to have a get together party once the party is finished at midnight Striker must exterminate the royal.
Striker: Some of your ways when it comes to dealing with royals makes me sick to my stomach
Crimson: I get my profit those bitches and fuckers stole millions from my industry and I want all of them to pay even for ones who don't know who the fuck I am
Striker: I always hated royals from all my years. I see some cry, some beg and some fight which makes me lose my temper to do the bidding and get paid .
Crimson: And this is why you're one of my most valuable clients who's a cowboy~
Striker: I'll kill the royal at midnight
Crimson: Good choice you can do whatever you want with her but when midnight comes it's off with her head.
Striker: Yes boss…
In the distance Ellie can hear Blitzo cursing once again a storm using anything to break but he keeps getting zapped causing him to knock out. Ellie was shaken and felt like a caged animal looking around seeing powerful shark gangsters with their guns, cigarettes, playing pool and drinking and talking as Ellie couldn't help but cry as she remembered she never liked being alone. She tried to calm herself down as she healed and exhaled while curled up in a ball. Suddenly Ellie hears the cage open and she looks up to see the cowboy that held her captive earlier in the car.
Striker: I brought you something to eat and some water. You're going to need it
Ellie didn't know what to do either if she should trust this rattlesnake imp or not but she had no choice maybe she can gain his trust. Ellie grabbed the water bottle off his claw and had the food he brought for her. She finished her white gloved hands tugged on her dress.
Striker: Please stop crying it makes my job harder…
Ellie: Why are you doing this?
Striker: Princess you do not want to interfere with someone like me.
Ellie: I can see in your eyes that you hate it… I just know
Striker: We had to make sacrifices and for me I made a ton didn't get me anymore but it get me some drinks or something to eat once in a wild I just can't think just do the thing.
Ellie: What if you don't want to
Striker: Have to suck it out like I always done
Ellie: You were flirty with me earlier but seems like you hate me to guts
Striker: It's just for show but truth be told you are a beautiful princess I laid my eyes on. I can't get attached to you
Ellie: What if you change, leave here and have a better life without the Mafia? They play really dirty and they're going after the royals like me.
Striker: There's nothing you can change princess about me
Ellie: I understand you just let me
Striker: NO!
Ellie try not to show fear when Striker tugged on her white glove hand. Ellie just stood still with the tears down her eyes Striker kept yelling at her to stop that because he will lose it. Ellie turned away but she felt her lips place into Striker's who gracefully kissed her full of passion. He laid her down as Ellie wrapped her arms around his neck. The bodied were close to each other Striker knows what he's doing is wrong especially to the royals. Ellie then also hugged him in between there passionate kiss. Striker let's her go but Ellie didn't want him to leave her.
Striker: I'll be back for you Ellie
Ellie: H…H…how did you know my name?
Striker: I know alot of royals but you the good ones.
Placing his finger around her face to hold Ellie's tear he gives her another kiss and he closes the cage and hops down to join Crimson. Ellie placed her gloved hand on her cheek still feeling warmth from Striker's touch.
Ellie: Striker…
In the party, the Mafia gang was using Blitzo as a pintia. Making Crimson laugh off a storm as Blitzo pretends to enjoys himself since he always gets into situations like this. However for some reason he's suppose to be torture but the Mafia gang seem to like him especially how he made drinks and this made Crimson piss more since he knows Blitzo is his son's boss he can be crazy but he's there for his crew. Something that Crimson never did for Moxxie as a father figure. Striker comes in drinking bottles of whiskey when he see Blitzo his blood boiled .
Blitzo: So came to talk dirty sex me
Striker: What the fuck are you saying?
Blitzo: ( Hiccups) I meant to say "saaaaaay you came to talk dirty about my suit.
Striker: I'm not gonna either bother
Blitzo: Alright fuck you then but listen cowboy your on my one night stand list!
Striker rolled his eyes he dropped his glass when he say the clock struck midnight with Crimson lighting a cigar and he went up to Striker.
Crimson: It's time cowboy go get the princess.
Striker sighs as he goes back to the wearhouse where he stares at the captive Princess for a long time she was singing and Striker thought it was beautiful. He felt like she was a true Cinderella or Belle. Striker opens the cage as Ellie looks back frighten which crushed Striker's heart.
Ellie: NO….NOOO NOOO AAHHH!!!! ( Covers mouth )
Striker: Just follow my lead darling. Your not going to die.
Ellie look back at him as she nods her head Striker then ties her with rope around her arms carrying her like a princess going up to Crimson and the Mafia Gang as they watched Striker carrying Ellie in his arms.
Striker: She wouldn't stop squirming so I held her to calm her down but doesn't know that she'll die.
Crimson: What a devious way of making her think. I love it!
Striker gives Ellie to Crimson as she's placed on a old beat up mattress. He takes the rope out of her arms and replaced it with rusty chains that go on bed post. Crimson lifted up Ellie's dress and threw her green fluffy coat aside she knew what was going to happen and wanted to scream but can she trust Striker.
Crimson: Since you been good with capturing many royals I decide this you can fuck her then kill her
Striker: My pleasure Crimson.
Crimson: If the bitch gives you any problems just shoot her.
Striker attends to walks to Ellie as she tugged on the rusty chains which lead to nothing her legs attend to shake. Striker's body went up against hers as she gasps he then kisses her with passion as she does the same with him behind his back Striker pulls out his pistol to shoot a Mafia shark down.
Crimson: THE FUCK GET HIM!
The Mafia sharks drawn there weapons and start to shoot. Striker shoot in between while protecting Ellie in his arms. Then out of nowhere Blitzo breaks free as he starts to fight and shoot up a rampage while chugging down leftover booze at the same time. Striker then breaks the rusty chains with his kicks and grabs Ellie managing to escape.
Ellie: What about Blitzo
Striker: Ehh I was going to kill him but maybe another time.
Ellie: Blitzo is my friend
Striker: Princess your making it really hard for me but I can't stand you being sad and not wanted.
Ellie: I'm no longer sad Striker, because I have you.
Blitzo had explosive as he plans to burn the place as he jumped out of the window as Striker dives down running from the flame as Ellie holds onto him, never letting go. They made it as they both panted as he then goes to bombproof pulling out his poncho wrapping it around Ellie to keep her warm and showing a way of comfort.
Striker: It will keep you warm
Ellie: Thank you
Striker: Your my prize possession Ellie
Ellie looked back and couldn't help but cry but this time she smiled and embraced her body close to Striker to two of them once again kissing showing their love and connection together. The two ride on Striker's horse as Ellie fell asleep into Striker's arm he rubbed her soft smooth magenta purple shade hair as they made it to the royal where Striker holds Ellie in place carrying her upstairs and putting her back to bed. He looks back at the sky where the colors purple and green form reminded of himself and Ellie. He attends to get up but Ellie tugged on his coat
Ellie: Please stay…
Striker: I'll stay for you my princess.
The two laid in bed together cuddling under the sheets slowly falling asleep together what a day it was almost being killed and shot but Striker knows for him he has to face it however someone like Ellie he didn't want her to face that danger side of anywhere she would go.
Striker: Blitzo made it because I like you so much your lucky I spared him .
Ellie turns to see a photo Blitzo posted on his Sinstagram he in the hospital with his crew and daughter with get well flowers and cheese and hot sauce on the table
Blitzo: I LIVED BITCH XO
Ellie giggle and was glad that her friend Blitzo was alive she then heard her stomach growl she forgot to eat anything.
Striker got out of bed to step out as Ellie lay there exhausted to do anything. She was happy to have someone like Striker she'll definitely help him change and be more loving and understanding Ellie has a good sense of that because compare to anyone in the royals she was always a devoted and kind princess. Striker return as be gives the bag to Ellie her eyes sparkle when she saw it was a hot dog with extra mustard that's all she ever wanted but maybe it was good because sure she got kidnapped but she finally went home with a cowboy who doesn't seen not so bad after all.
Ellie: Thank you Striker for everything
Striker: Don't need to thank me Ellie your life means more anything to me
Ellie: Your life matters too
Striker: I'll be by your side

One thing I found particularly interesting in Final Horizon is that in one conversation with Amy, the doctor seems to express sympathy for the remnants of the Ancient's consciousness that only come out at night due to their fear of The End even many years after their extinction. I dunno, it adds dimension to his character IMO that even though he's an awful person through and through, he's still capable of at least expressing some sympathy towards others.
I don't mind if this was the intention with it or if what I'm personally hearing it as was for reasons I'll explain in a moment buuut- I honestly kinda can't really hear it as being genuine sympathy. His tone and the little "hmph!" before saying it sounds slightly amused almost. I keep trying to unhear it and read it as sympathy but I can't.
Putting with sound here to see if anyone else can see what I mean with that in mind:
youtube
That's not just me saying this out of wishful thinking or anything as like I said, I don't mind if that wasn't that the intention. He absolutely has low empathy from all I've observed but that doesn't mean he couldn't ever have any at all in any situation ever hypothetically, so I wouldn't be mad if it was the intention for him to feel slight sympathy.
Though I think it'd be a liiittle ooc in this specific way as he's never given a shit about anything bad happening to anyone before, so why would this be the time and way? It'd be a strange way to suddenly throw in now this way after many opportunities before. Cute little creatures don't make him care and feel bad, otherwise he would've felt that way about those he captures and uses in robots.
But it doesn't sound like he genuinely feels really bad for them exactly to me. His tone and his "hmph!" makes it sound like he's more a little amused and says it with a lilt, that was my first impression and I can't unhear it. With subtitles alone, you can imagine a sadder tone more along the lines of what Sonic and co express when saying such things but that isn't what it sounds like from him in comparison. That's why it didn't raise any brows at all when I first heard it.
Going by tone, I'd say the delivery on the memo where he acknowledged The Ancients dying out sounded more like they could've set it up for him feeling sympathy as his tone would've been more appropriate. But instead three memos after, he's just like "Sure it wiped them out but I could handle The End because I'm just built different I'm a genius!" -
youtube
He basically brushes off the severity of the tragedy and insults their skill and intelligence with that, like they just needed to get good like him, so he clearly wasn't actually sympathetic then either.
BUT if he somehow was even just a little bit sympathetic for even a second, it would be an even more of a deliberate fully aware choice of his to still be an asshole about it like that, so that would just make him worse and would mean he has a very low amount if any at all to still be able to do that. And that would potentially make him even more dangerous and threatening if he had the emotional intelligence to feel that sympathy, yet he still chooses to be a jerk about them dying out and still choosing to be horrible person. So that's why it's good and funny either way to me lol
But it's not like he changes in tone when talking to Amy like he's just pretending not to care about them or something, if he was feeling sympathy then I don't think he'd even say that in front of her at all. And especially because in the memos he made it even obvious that he doesn't feel sympathy for The Ancients getting wiped out and still chooses to be a dick about it a few memos later- and that's when he's alone speaking to himself and could've been honest and open.
So I'm currently interpreting it as an example of his low empathy shown through a way where he's saying something that could be sympathetic coming from anyone else with the feeling and tone, but he just doesn't have it to match the words he's saying and it just seems detached. Since usually it's through him blatantly stating he doesn't care about something or brushing something off as insignificant. The latter is there a bit by how it sounds like he's bemused and detached but the words don't match like with the common former with him.
But the way it sounds a little amused and attached just almost loops back around to his cruelty because while he doesn't particularly revel in it, him sounding even slightly amused at the idea of them still being in hiding in fear... and how he talked about how he could've handled it better than the ancients... well. XD That kind of makes it seem almost the opposite of sympathetic to me. Not amusement to the point of it being another case of his sadism, but rather just an example of him being a lot more detached and a little apathetic really.
To put it simply, the vibe I'm personally getting is that it's like he's just going "ha! funny how it's like it's just happened and they still hide in fear of what wiped them out." And that alone is far from "he's actually showing sympathy towards something" to me. But as I said, even if that was the intention, it's not a bother to me and I'm willing to entertain it for how it could make him even more dangerous for that (though he absolutely is enough already if not of course). But I can't say I can hear it as being a moment of genuine heartfelt sympathy from him.
