Of course, it had to be them. ❤️💜

[lea-panthera]

Marinette: So what are you guys going to do on your next date?

Kagami: He's going to kidnap me again-

Marinette: He's going to what?

Kagami Appreciation Week: K is for Kidnapping

Doin' some kagamis for @kagamiappreciationweek2020 ! Also gonna try and not repeat any ships because I ship her with a number of people.

BUT Feligami has the amazing dynamic of "oh no i have been kidnapped by a super villain help (hehehe)" so obviously they get the first prompt

My contribution to Kagami Appreciation Week. She is one of my favorite characters so this was fun to do.

Clear Canvas

For @kagamiappreciationweek2020 day 2 for the prompt “Arts”

Kagami stares at the canvas in front of her, it’s not often she gets to revel in the fact that it’s clear.

Clear of paint or sketches she uses to guide herself on the piece she’s creating. It’s blank, a way of showing that Kagami is out of ideas.

Maybe if she stares hard enough her hand will miraculously lift itself up, chose a colour and start painting.

Or maybe a sketch will randomly appear if she thinks hard enough.

It’s weird, the ideas are usually flowing through her mind, taking up every inch of the canvas, lines and waves cross with serpents and daggers.

But today it stays blank, it’s ironic because she’s actually quite clear headed today. Maybe that’s why?

Whatever it is, Kagami doesn’t like it. No, she despises the clear canvas in front of her, the teen wanted it to be full of life, not a blank slate.

It stays there in the corner of her room, just for a few more days until she decides to splatter paint all over it when she’s frustrated.

After all, it was pretty much just a reminder that she was a blank slate. Just a pawn in her mother’s game.

But when the colours dried and Kagami turns the canvas in a certain way. She’s sure she can make out something new, not waves or lines.

Wings.

Maybe this was a sign?!

Kagami was going to finally spread her wings and soar.

hello! welcome to the fandom !

can i have bf headcanons for subaru please ?

thank you for taking my request!

have a great day <3

A/N: I would love to do bf headcanons for subaru, he is actually so sweet. Also thank you! I love the game so far, I can’t wait till episode 9 releases. I’m hoping it’ll be longer but a person can only hope… I hope you enjoy these! Honestly I have so many headcanons for him, I think he would be a lovely boyfriend. These were fun to do, I love relationship headcanons so bad!

BF headcanons with Subaru Kagami ♥︎

Credits for divider!: @thecutestgrotto

Genre: Headcanons, Fluff

Find my requesting rules here!

╔══ஓ๑♡๑ஓ══╗

♥︎ Even as your boyfriend, Subaru still gets nervous around you, especially in the early phases of the relationship. He apologizes whenever he touches you by accident, and you have to remind him that you don’t mind the physical affection.

♥︎ Doesn’t have experience with relationships. He grew up as an actor at a young age and didn’t have the mind to focus on romantic relationships. Still learning how to be with another person, but he tries his best and makes sure to mentally note what you like. He has a habit of only serving you, and not paying attention to what he wants. Gets a little flustered when you give him gifts, but he cherishes it with all of his heart.

♥︎ He’s a great listener, he listens with an open heart and remains empathetic towards you. He doesn’t mind sitting down for a while and hearing your troubles. Usually likes to hold your hand to make sure that you know he’s there for you. Afterwards he’ll offer tea in order to calm you down, something with lavender since it’s known to be an anxiety reliever. If you don’t want to talk about it though, that’s fine too, he can wait. He always has patience for you.

♥︎ When relaxing together, he pulls out a blanket so both of you are comfortable. If you prefer it, he can put on tv, listen to music, or just sit in silence and enjoy the other’s presence. He enjoys being close to you, he’ll grab both of your hands and lean into your shoulder.

♥︎ When you two go out to eat, or try to find an activity to do, he won’t tell you what he wants in fear that you won’t have fun if he suggests something. You try to reassure him that it’s a relationship and that you want to experience something he enjoys as well.

“I’m a bit hungry, you should choose where we eat today!”

“Oh ummm… I’m fine with anything you want, I’m not particularly craving something.”

“…Subaru I’ve chosen where we eat the past week, I promise you that I don’t mind.”

He can take a while on deciding, at some point you just start learning where he likes to go and occasionally bring him there. He appreciates that you mix up things for him, sometimes he mentions that there’s a new shop opening somewhere, hinting that he wants to check it out.

♥︎ Takes you on walks around the Hotarubi grounds. The flowers are always blooming, and it’s constantly raining so it smells beautiful all the time. He grabs an umbrella and keeps you close when you walk together, he’ll slink an arm around you and pull you in to make sure you don’t get wet in the rain. In reality he just likes the physical contact. The grounds are big so you take your time wandering around and talking.

♥︎ He finds it a bit silly, but both of you enjoy doing impressions of other people. It’s something fun to do when you’re sitting around. Especially when you’re bored of studying, you have studying sessions together and when you need a break, you’ll pull out the awful impressions of people to make him smile. He eventually joins along, his impressions are much better though since he’s been doing it for his entire life.

♥︎ Loves buying food from Sho’s truck and sharing it together. When you open up the food, sometimes you’ll find little hearts made out of sauce on top of the rice. Thanks Sho!

♥︎ Occasionally when he talks, he can ramble on a bit. It surprises him a bit since he doesn’t talk too much around others cause he doesn’t want to bother people. But he gets comfortable around you and starts to go on, saying sorry after the fact and that he didn’t mean to talk for so long.

♥︎ He can get really somber, when he doesn’t smile he has a sad look on his face. You can tell he’s thinking about something, but you don’t pry because he’s one to keep his feelings to himself. You softly encourage him to tell you about what he’s currently thinking but he brushes it off and tells you that he’s fine, chalking it up to losing track of time. In these moments, you silently lean on him and watch the flowers, someday he’ll tell you but you understand that it’s difficult for him at the moment.

♥︎ Doesn’t really participate in PDA, when he’s brave enough he’ll hold your hand in public. Besides that, people can mainly tell you two are together through rumours, and the fact that you are around each other all the time outside of classes. His hand is always warm and inviting to you, when it’s cold, he’ll lace your hand with his and it feels wonderful each time.

♥︎ Whenever you have to leave and run an errand, or you need to go back to your dorm, he’ll give you kisses before you leave. He hates when you have to leave, but understands that you have places to go, he supposes that he should catch up on his own things as well. He softly grabs your cheek before kissing you, he makes a sad face and at that point you have to promise that you’ll be back soon to ease his mind.

♥︎ When you’re sick, he gives you the royalty treatment. If you need something from the store, he’ll get you whatever you want. He forces you to get plenty of rest and to not think about any stresses. He feels incredibly sorry for you and sticks by you if you wish. He’ll softly sing you a lullaby to help you fall asleep, and gives you herbs that help with sleep. When you’re finally resting, he stares at your face and plays with your hair a bit before leaving to let you be at peace.

Off to a great start

Kidnapping

@kagamiappreciationweek2020

She did that on purpose

[anini-chu]

Felix doesn't know at the moment thar Ryuko is kagami, so she takes advantage to teasing him a little 🤭💖

I haven't draw them in almost a week. Wtf is wrong with me? I wanna draw them more but I'm lack of ideas at the moment 😭 I would appreciate some ideas ;u;

[kuregure]

okay so second part!

volume 8 Japanese limited edition with the drama cd. I got it at a reasonable price on Vinted as well so I was very happy!

Even if I understand absolutely nothing of what they are saying, there is no image or subtitles, I appreciate it 😔 I literally jumped when I heard Shinya's voice calling Guren as he knocked on his office door! I was listening and smiling like I understood something LMAO

also it's a limited edition of volume 8, the volume where Guren is on the cover, ARE YOU AGAINST HIM?? IT'S A CONSPIRACY ?? DO YOU WANT TO REPLACE HIM??? 🤨🤨🤨 (this is a joke just in case huh)

and I saw that there was another limited edition, I don't know which volume, but I'm waiting for it to be on Vinted because well yk, ebay is a definite no from now on

next, the cat16 drama cd!! With the volume number 6 of cat16 ! I haven't listened to it yet and this time I was able to read the translation on tumblr of what was there thanks to someone (she will recognize herself and THANK YOU really!!!)

it had Guren on the cover too, of course I took it. I bought it from the same seller as the limited edition volume 8!

I miss cat16 a lot and i miss Asami

the supposedly limited edition DVDs but there is always stock somewhere lmao so not really limited. However, the stickers, posters, photos, cards and books inside were VERY appreciated!

both POP Yuichirooooo! the second is damaged because the person who sold it to me didn't put it in a box, just in bubble wrap 😠 I was outraged

maybe I will buy Shinoa later. It will depend on how it evolves! For now, I'm proud of her

I'm sad there's no Guren in POP but that's life. (I sob)

THIS is my favorite thing in my entire room. I received it this week and OMG I spent so much on it! I had no choice but to buy it on ebay because it was no longer in stock anywhere and no one was selling it on another site. I've been looking for it for 2 years at a lower price.

One day, someone listed it for only €70 on Vinted, I was only €20 short and my mother told me NO. As a result, obviously someone bought it and I had to buy it 2 years later at the price of €295 (shippings included) 🤡 it's my trauma

but I don't regret it and sometimes I suddenly remember that I have it, I raise my head to look at him and I smile 😭

And finally my wall ! Everything is from the limited edition DVDs, I had to hang them somewhere. And the frame is a gift from my mom! I didn't hang the stickers and cards

I'm thinking of printing and hanging a nice picture of Guren somewhere. I had done this before but crushed a bug on it so had to throw it away 😔 maybe I'll print some cat16 images too

so Kagami, I spent a lot on your work! so you better have to make a happy end 😔😔😔😔

what do you mean by "Guren" is my favorite?? no 🙄💅

[sweetmeatdale]

Tales of Bloody Bug and Chat Noir - Chapter 67 - Erupt

Beginning || Previous || Next

            Adrien sat hunched over Daizzi’s anklet. His brows knotted in concentration as his eye twitched in frustration. He hit the vital points again, but no reaction. He gritted his teeth as he tried again, but nothing. He tried again and again until he groaned and threw the tool and Daizzi’s anklet into the hair. He slammed his face onto the table as the tool clattered beside him and Daizzi caught her anklet. Plagg peeked over from the middle of the table and grinned while Daizzi approached Adrien.

            “Adrien, I do appreciate what you’re trying to do, but could we maybe, I don’t know, take a break?” Daizzi asked.

            “No. I have this. I know I do. I just need to do better,” Adrien remarked.

            “I know, but we’ve been at this for a few weeks, and it just feels, I don’t know, exhausting.”

            Adrien sat up. “But I haven’t gotten it right. I have to get it right. I have to help set you all free.”

            “I know, and I appreciate that, but I don’t think this is helping you. I think you should take a break and relax.”

            “I’ve already tried that multiple times and it has only gotten worse.”

            “Oh, come now. I’m sure it’s not all that bad. There was the pool, and-.”

            “Don’t remind me of the pool. I hated seeing Alix body slammed by that ox. I wanted to do something, maybe not beat Kim up like Chloe and Zoe did, but I don’t know what. Not to mention seeing certain people dressed in swimsuits like that just… I don’t want to talk about it.”

            Plagg smirked as he sauntered over to Adrien and Daizzi. “What’s the matter, Adrien? Your frustrations getting to be too much for you?”

            “Not enough to have you destroy them,” Adrien hissed.

            “It’d be much easier if you were just free of them,” Plagg remarked.

            “But who’s to say they won’t come back? I mean, there’s still Gabriel who isn’t really doing the best at reconnecting with Adrien. Granted Adrien isn’t trying either as he’s always here, but what can you do? There’s also Felix who is still trying to pursue Kagami even after Alix told him that Kagami wasn’t interested. Which also didn’t end well when the two got into a fist fight. There’s also his mortal carnal desires taking root after Mayura removed the associated emotions with his trauma that sorta, y’know, clears that up. But not good since he’s without a mortal companion to engage in such activities with.”

            Adrien tsked. “Even if I did, I wouldn’t do whatever it is that stuff is. Thinking and doing whatever comes after kissing are two very different things.”

            “From the insults I gather from Alix for Felix, you just need to think with this other head she speaks of,” Plagg commented.

            “I… I don’t even know what that means. Whatever! It doesn’t even matter. Look, I’d rather just forget all about those feelings, but not have them destroyed, alright? I can… I can deal with this.”

            Plagg grumbled as he rolled his eyes and returned to the center of the table.

            “Well, uh, can we still take a break? Oh! How about music? You and Nino seemed to enjoy that, right? It got your mind off things, right?” Daizzi suggested.

            “Not for long,” Adrien admitted.

            “What about hanging out with Nino then? You two seemed to have fun at the pool, and I’m sure he misses you, right?”

            “Not yet. There will be time to relax once I get this finished. I know how to do it. I just need to do it right.”

            “What about Rose’s sweet sixteen party thing she’s having today? That one Alix went to?” Plagg suggested.

            “Oh! Yes! That should be fun,” Daizzi added.

            “Marinette’s there,” Adrien remarked.

            “But… I thought you were tolerating her?”

            “I am, but that doesn’t mean I want to spend more time with her than I have to. C’mon, Daizzi, give me the anklet.”

            Daizzi hesitated before she gave Adrien the anklet. Adrien held the tool up to the anklet when Kagami caught his eye. He pursed his lips as she stared at him.

            “What is commotion here?” Kagami asked.

            “Nothing you need to worry about, Kagami. Why are you even here?” Adrien asked.

            “Spending time with the heroes, or as I told Mother. I’ve grown to love this place for the quiet serenity it offers away from the culture shock of Paris. It is also where I’ve been meeting the Lee girl. So, not a complete lie to Mother, but not an entire truth either.”

            “Oh yeah? What brought this change? I thought you always did as your mother told you.”

            “I do and am, but your sister opened my eyes to a truth hidden under my nose. One that I failed to realize of my own accord. I still possess a hint of luxury you westerners flaunt so freely: choice. Even as I remain loyal to Mother as a modern day onna-musha should, but I do have a duty to accept orders that I want, not because I’m told.”

            “Oh? And where was this before when you were ordered to marry me?” Adrien countered.

            “I didn’t believe I had such a luxury at the time. I believed my own wants didn’t matter and that I should be honored to receive and follow such orders. That, and I didn’t hate the idea of being betrothed to you. That was until you found out and actively sabotaged it. You and Felix both.”

            “What does that even matter now? You still upset over it all? And what about Alix? Wasn’t she an obstacle to you?”

            “I have forgiven her part in it as I recognized the true root cause. You refused to be content with what could have been a successful empire between the Agrestes and Tsurugis. Felix is a misguided fool that believes he is love, when any love he had long soured into obsession.”

            “Don’t turn this around on me just because I didn’t love you. Just because I loved the most amazing, wonderful girl there ever was instead of you. Just because you would have trapped me into a life I hated just as Gabriel had tried to do.”

            “I didn’t want or need your love, Adrien. I needed a secure future where I wouldn’t worry where my next meal would come from, where I would sleep, or if I would lose any commodity. Mother made it clear she wouldn’t be around forever, and while she’d do what she can to ensure my future, I had to pull my own weight to secure all these things. I agreed with the arrangement because I could do just that, until you ruined it. Pushed Mother into making a deal with devil herself. You and Felix.”

            “Ok, and? What do you want? An apology?”

            “Save your empty words. I want you to understand, and you won’t until I tell you.”

            “Understand what?”

            “Me. We are supposed to be friends, however in becoming friends with Alix, I realized how we aren’t truly friends. I wanted to be a better friend, but I felt an obstruction, a barrier of sorts. It took some meditation and self-reflection to realize that I am angry that you put my future at such a terrible risk. I’m angry that you forced Mother to make a risky deal with a devil. Everything we’ve ever done is for the future of the Tsurugi line, and you and Felix put it all in jeopardy. Do you understand?”

            “No, I don’t. Look, I don’t care about that right now, Kagami. I have other things to contend with.”

            “Like what?”

            “Well, like-,” Adrien started.

            “Avoiding Gabriel,” Daizzi remarked.

            “Avoiding Felix,” Plagg added.

            “Isolating himself,” Daizzi continued.

            “Letting his carnal desires pile up,” Plagg continued.

            “Plagg!” Adrien yelled.

            “Oh, and trying to set us free. Though he’s not doing the greatest,” Daizzi commented.

            “I’m doing my best, ok?” Adrien yelled.

            Kagami moved around the table to where Adrien sat. “Your best is not always your good enough. Learn that lesson now. Now, show me what you’re doing with that tool.”

            “Oh, you think you can do better?”

            “I know I can do better. I am better.”

            “Fine. Watch, and we’ll see if you really are.”

            Adrien hit the vital points once to show Kagami before he handed her the anklet and tool. She held up the anklet, twirled the tool in her free hand, and struck the vital points, sure and true. The anklet flashed once and Daizzi’s body glitched out. They watched Daizzi glitch until she stabilized into the larger size Plagg, Tikki, and Fluff were.

            “Oh, wow! Look at me, Plagg! I’m back to normal already!” Daizzi cheered.

            “What? How did you do that right the first time?” Adrien demanded.

            Kagami dropped the tool on the table in front of Adrien. “I told you. I’m better. But if you want a suitable answer, you are sloppy. Your movements are hesitant and lacking discipline. A terrible embarrassment for someone that is meant to be a champion fencer. Though I guess the French’s standards really are just that lacking if someone like you is a champion.”

            Adrien’s jaw dropped as he glared at Kagami.

            “Excuse me. May I have my anklet, please?” Daizzi asked Kagami.

            Kagami nodded and handed Daizzi the anklet. Daizzi grinned as she absorbed the anklet into her body. Kagami shot Adrien a look before she started for the exit. Kagami stopped and glanced back at Adrien.

            “A moment of clarity hit me. Though I’m angry at your past actions, I can overlook with relief that I wasn’t shackled to someone like you. If I can truly feel love like that is still something I’m debating with myself, but I do know I would have been miserable chained to someone as irresponsible, stubborn, undisciplined, privileged child that you are. Almost feels fitting you were with a girl and not a real woman. You wouldn’t have deserved her otherwise.”

            Adrien gritted his teeth, stood up, and slammed his hands on the table. “And who are you to judge me? You said it yourself that we barely know each other. You don’t know everything I’ve gone through as Adrien or as Chat Noir. You don’t know how it has impacted me and what’ve had to do. I may not come from a rigid, cold, unloving family like yours, but don’t dare assume I’m any of those things when you don’t even know me.”

            “Then why are you proving me right with this little tantrum? Why are you showing me that you, for all you say, are just as bad, if not worse? As you stand there, screaming, yelling, slamming the table, all to claim you aren’t everything I just said. All to throw judgements back at me, made out of irrational emotion rather than logic.”

            “Because I can at least say I’m human and wasn’t raised to be a mindless robot to follow the orders of my parents. What’s your excuse?”

            “I have none nor do I need one. I am fine with how I am. Better than being like someone like you.”

            “If you don’t like this, then good luck with Alix. She’s no better.”

            Kagami chuckled as she turned back to Adrien with a smile. Adrien’s eyes widened at the sight of a such a small, genuine smile.

            “Alix is so much more than you ever will be. It’s honestly adorable how you think you can mimic what she is,” Kagami remarked.

            “What’s that supposed to mean?”

            “I know you’re not that stupid and see what you’re doing. I remember she was just as angry once too, like how you are now. However, she wore her anger better than you. Granted she had the bite to back her bark, which I do admire. Unlike you who is all bark and no bite. If you’re going to copy your sister, you might as well go all the way, otherwise you just look like a little bitch.”

            “Oh fuck you! Just because I’m angry and lashing out doesn’t make me like Alix. I can be angry if I want to be.”

            “Right. That’s why you’re using it to shield yourself like she did. That’s why you’re lashing out as I saw her do. Right, you’re just being angry because you can and seldom allowed it to be seen before, or am I wrong?”

            “Not entirely,” Plagg remarked.

            “Plagg!” Adrien scolded.

            “Look, as much as I love this circle, I don’t. You’re both wrong. Now shut up,” Plagg hissed.

            “Yeah. I don’t have much context, but you aren’t doing yourself any favors by staying here, cooped up in your head, and with all that frustration. It’s just… making things worse,” Daizzi remarked.

            “Agreed. How about this, we allow Kagami to reset all the kwamis, while you relax,” Plagg suggested.

            “Oh, yes! That way, we’ll all be reset, and Xuppu, Pollen, Wayzz, Trixx, and myself will be able to choose new holders. Kagami will earn favor among the heroes, Adrien gets a break, and we’ll all be free. It’ll be one last problem.”

            “I… but… what about the others? Gabriel, Felix, and these… horrid thoughts?”

            “What’s going on with Felix?” Kagami asked.

            “He still wants you,” Plagg answered.

            “What? I thought Alix said she was going to talk to him?”

            “Well, you see, she sorta tried. But Felix didn’t believe. And then it escalated into a fight. And they got hurt. And they got in trouble. And Felix is still set on winning you back,” Daizzi said.

            Kagami tsked. “I was hoping to not have to deal with him, but it cannot be avoided. I’ll see you later, Adrien.”

            “Where are you going now?” Adrien asked.

            “To deal with your delusional cousin. Maybe that’ll help with this frustration you’re experiencing. Though do work on it. It does us no good to have one of leaders as a crying child.”

            Adrien opened his mouth, but Kagami teleported out of the realm. He sighed and rested his head on the table.

            “Adrien? Are you ok?” Daizzi asked.

            ‘Just… leave me alone,” Adrien said.

            “But-!”

            “It’s fine, Daizzi. I’ll be here with him,” Plagg said.

            Daizzi nodded and vanished. Plagg sighed and moved closer to Adrien.

            “You really need to work on this, Adrien. If you will not let me get rid of those frustrations, you must do something. Especially after that little display. Such a display that wouldn’t have happened if you didn’t let these feelings fester into the chaos that they are,” Plagg admonished.

            “I know, I know. I… I’m sorry.”

            “Sorry means nothing if you don’t do something about it. So, will you do something about it?”

            “I will. I just… I need a moment.”

            “Very well, but once this moment is over, I expect to see you resolving these chaotic feelings. I will not tolerate them any longer, understood?”

            Adrien nodded as he adjusted his head to rest it on his arms. Plagg settled into a loaf near Adrien and purred loudly. Adrien’s eyes grew heavy as he focused on Plagg’s purr as he fell asleep.

~~

            Alix watched Rose mingle with her guests as the party died down. She glanced at her phone at the time and decided it was time. She grinned, slinked through the shadows, and scooped Rose up. Rose screeched and broke out in giggles.

            “Alix! What are you doing?” Rose asked.

            “I’m stealing the princess away to a faraway realm. The time has finally come.”

            Rose shrieked as Alix carried her away. Alix darted between the remaining guests as she headed to a secluded area. Alix touched the gem on her bracelet, and they were teleported to the heroes’ realm. Alix set Rose down, took her hand, and led her out into the plaza.

            “What’s all this about, Alix?” Rose asked.

            “You’ll see. Come along.”

            Rose rolled her eyes but followed Alix. They stepped up to the fountain and the statue of Badb. Rose gasped as she gazed up at the statue.

            “I… when was this added?”

            “Not long after the accident. Tikki made them to immortalize and honor our fallen comrades. I realize it may be a little shitty bringing you here on a day about you, but I also didn’t have any other evil queen to bring you to.”

            “What?”

            “Juleka and I had talked. We had this whole thing planned for the two of you. I was going to steal you away where she would have waited for you here for a big birthday surprise just for you two. And, well, yeah. Something about wanting it to be like something out of a fairytale with the evil queen wanting to steal the princess away.”

            Rose’s eyes misted over as she burst out laughing. “Oh, Jewel. I would have loved to have seen that. If only you were still here. Alas, you’re not. This is no fairytale, not like we always talked about. There is no happily ever after for us anymore. I’m sorry I wasn’t better.”

            “Rose?”

            “I’m sorry. I just… I try not to think about it. The sacrifice she made for me. She threw me into the bubble, and I tried to retrieve her with Fetch, but it didn’t reach her in time. The ball was caught in the blast with Juleka. I know why she did it. I know she wanted to save me over herself, but the fact that I couldn’t return the favor, it hurts. And it always will, but I won’t let it stop me. She wanted me to live, and it still hurts, but I’ll live for her.”

            Alix opened her mouth when Luka stepped out around the corner of the statue and glared at Rose.

            “And here you are at long last. What took you so long to pay proper respects to the girl you claimed to have loved?” Luka hissed.

            “Pardon? What are you talking about?” Rose demanded.

            “You know full well what I’m talking about. It’s been months since that event. Months since you moved on so easily. Do you even care that she’s gone? Did you even love her?”

            “I… no. I know I don’t need to justify myself to you. I know full well I loved Juleka. I know that her absence has been hard on myself. I know there isn’t a moment that I don’t miss her. However, I won’t sit here and explain myself to you.”

            “Because you’re scared of realizing you never truly loved her. Because you can easily go on smiling and laughing even though she’s only been gone a few months. You’ve clearly moved on from her. Must have been easy when you had someone like her.”

            “Don’t be afraid to speak my name, Luka. Or is there something you’re holding off for someone as special as me?” Alix challenged.

            “Oh, yes, yes I do. When are you going to set things right? When are you going to undo that mess? Don’t you think you’ve waited long enough?” Luka demanded.

            “Nothing is going to happen. Everything that did and has will remain as it is,” Alix answered.

            “What?”

            “I didn’t stutter.”

            “You have the power of time at your disposal. You can go back in time and fix all this. You can set things right, but you’d rather everyone just suffer, is that it? You’d rather people just wallow in misery over their loved ones being gone just to keep whatever you’ve gained so far.”

            “No. I agree with Fluff that things should be left alone. That if we tried to change things, we could be dooming others. We may have lost Porcelet, Badb, Fennec, and Bomb Bee this time, but if we go back, who will be lost instead? Maybe instead of Badb, it’d be the sniveling lost rabbit Harlequin. Would you rather that?” Alix challenged.

            “Enough! Luka, we’re all living with this pain. It’s not just you. Please, you must understand that. You’re not alone,” Rose butted in.

            “He won’t. This little fucker has played victim in everything. Begging for pity and people to take it easy on him. I bet even his little ‘I was bullied and that’s why I’m so withdrawn’ is all bullshit at this point,” Alix retorted.

            Luka tensed up as he glared down at Alix.

            “Alix, don’t. Now is not the time to antagonize anyone,” Rose whispered.

            “Bullshit! This fucker was just doing that to you and you, what, want to reason with him? Fuck that. Listen here you little bitch. You aren’t the only one that is suffering. You aren’t the only one that lost someone important. We’re all still mourning in our own ways. Just because it’s not your brand of wallowing in self-loathing, pity, and whatever else, doesn’t mean we’re not all still going through it all. So, do us all a favor and get over yourself, prick!” Alix roared.

            Rose grimaced as she shielded her eyes and looked at the ground. Alix and Luka glared daggers at each other until Tikki materialized between them. Tikki crouched down and glanced up at them with a cheeky smirk.

            “I believe this is one of those moments that mortals would kiss each other,” Tikki remarked.

            Luka’s face flushed red as he covered his mouth and turned away.

            Alix shook her head as she looked at Tikki. “Seriously?”

            “What? You two just radiate tension. Well, normal tension for you. But him? Oh boy! It’s like those terrible, yet engaging soaps that are on your TV programs. You know where the guy hates the girl, but really wants to-.”

            Tikki was cut off as Luka teleported out of the realm.

            Alix snorted. “Good riddance.”

            “Alix, that was-,” Rose started.

            “What did I miss out here?” Kagami asked.

            Alix, Rose, and Tikki all turned to see Kagami across from them.

            “Nothing important. Just an over-sensitive little bitch,” Alix remarked.

            “You mean other than Adrien?” Kagami asked.

            “What do you mean? What happened?”

            “We had a talk. He wasn’t happy about it. Then I went to Felix. Talked with him too. He didn’t like it either.”

            Alix groaned. “Felix can wait. Where is Adrien?”

            “In the meeting room resting on the table with Plagg next to him purring like a motorboat.”

            “Thank you. One moment, Rose,” Alix said.

            Alix ran into the keep to the meeting room. Tikki followed Alix as they stepped into the room to see Adrien asleep and Plagg beside him. Alix moved and shook Adrien awake while Tikki scooped up cat Plagg. Adrien groaned as he slowly lifted his head.

            “Wh-what time is it?” Adrien asked.

            “Time to tell me what happened earlier,” Alix answered.

            “Alix? Oh, uh, it was-,” Adrien started.

            “He and Kagami had a little spat. Kagami told him how she felt about what he’s done in the past, and how much of a bitch he’s become,” Plagg answered.

            “Is this true?” Alix asked.

            “M-more or less,” Adrien admitted.

            “Alright, Adrien, it’s time. You can’t keep doing this shit,” Alix started.

            “I know! I know. I already talked with Plagg and I see I need to do something to deal with all this frustration. I can’t… I can’t keep trying to distract myself. I just… I don’t know how to handle all this frustration. It all just feels out of my control still.”

            “Well, Kagami spoke with Felix, so hopefully that piece is done. I can’t really help you with your sexual frustrations, but for Gabriel, you need to put in more of an effort. I know it’s weird, but you wanted this. You can’t just let him go free, tell him you want to be a family again, and then just avoid him. As for the kwamis, well, just give them a break and work on yourself first,” Alix suggested.

            “Well, for the kwamis, I was thinking of having Kagami reset them. She reset Daizzi today on the first try and completely. Unlike Mayura where the kwamis still needed time to get back to full power,” Adrien remarked.

            “That works too. That would just leave Gabriel for the time. Just… make more of an effort.”

            “I will. I promise.”

            “Now why couldn’t you be that way with Luka?” Rose remarked.

            Alix flinched as she looked back at Rose behind her. “We need to get you a bell.”

            “Oh, I have plenty, but that’s besides the point. If you can be that gentle with Adrien, why not Luka?”

            “Because Luka is a bitch.”

            “Agreed. I have not interacted with him much, but he reeks of self-loathing and exudes hatred,” Kagami added.

            Everyone turned to see Kagami standing in the entrance.

            “Kagami, I… I’m s-,” Adrien started.

            Kagami raised a hand that silenced Adrien. “Save your apologies. Words are cheap. I want to see you make up for all grievances between us with action. Only then can we begin being these friends we are already supposed to be. And I will be sure to do the same.”

            “R-right,” Adrien whispered.

            “Alix, good luck with Felix,” Kagami said.

            “Not my problem, until it is,” Alix remarked.

            Kagami nodded. She waved and left them.

            “So, what now?” Alix asked.

            “I… I think I’ll go back home. Make an effort to do better. See you there soon?” Adrien asked.

            “Yeah. I’ll home in time for dinner. And, Adrien?”

            “Yeah?”

            “Make sure to take it easy and speak your piece. Let the others know too.”

            Adrien nodded. He touched the gem and was transported back to the Kubdel home in Alix’s room. He heard sad American country music playing. He looked over at Alix’s bed and saw Felix curled up in a ball, crying into a pillow. He grimaced as he slipped out of the room and headed downstairs. He paused along the dim stairs as he listened to Alim and Amelie chatting in the kitchen. He crept down and peered over to see the couple preparing dinner while Gabriel watched the news on mute in the sitting room.

            Adrien hesitated going down until he felt something brush against his leg. He looked down and saw Plagg in cat form. He leaned down and scooped up Plagg. He took a deep breath and approached Gabriel.

            “H-hey, would you mind if I sat with you?” Adrien asked.

            Gabriel nodded and scooted over. Adrien pursed his lips as he sat on the couch with Gabriel.

            “What brought about this change of heart, Adrien? You’ve been avoiding me since I got here,” Gabriel pointed out.

            “I… I had a talk with someone. Er, two someones. Well, more like three. A-anyway, that’s not the point. I… I realized I wasn’t being fair to you… or myself. Mostly myself, but you were part of the problems I was running away from. And I’m sorry.”

            “Adrien, what’s going on?”

            Adrien sucked in a deep breath. “I’ve… I… I need to tell you something! It’s… I just… I-!”

            Plagg meowed and caught Adrien midsentence. Adrien looked down at Plagg’s curious eyes.

            “I have to. I… I need to trust him. I need to see. And… and it’ll be the only way I can explain all of this to him. In a way he can understand. Please.”

            Plagg nodded. He slipped out of Adrien’s arms and jumped onto the coffee table. Gabriel opened his mouth as Plagg transformed into his human form and stared at Gabriel.

            “What the-!” Gabriel yelled.

            “Hello, Gabriel. I am Plagg, kwami of destruction.”

            “Kwami? That means… Adrien, you’re… you’re Chat Noir?” Gabriel roared.

            Adrien shrank back and shrugged with a nervous smile.

            “Yes, he is. And allow me to make one thing clear. We know you sought my and Sugarcube’s miraculous. And, during a certain time, we would have feared you taking us away. However, these are not those times. You dare touch my ring, Adrien or no, I will destroy you. Do you understand?” Plagg warned.

            “I… well, yes, but Adrien, why? Just… why?” Gabriel demanded.

            Adrien hesitated before he took a deep breath. “Freedom, Gabriel. Freedom. I was sick of being trapped in that mansion. I told you, but you never listened. So, when I was given the black cat, how could I not take the chance to take my life into my own hands? How could I not take control over something you ripped away from me?”

            “I… I don’t know what to say.”

            “Then, please, just listen. Please.”

            Gabriel sighed and nodded. Adrien explained everything that had happened to him from the moment he became Chat Noir, to Mayura, and up until now. He shared all his frustrations that had plagued him over the past few months before he broke down in tears.

            “And I just don’t know what to do anymore. Some things had gotten easier, but others are just as difficult. I have solutions to the big ones, but the others don’t have clear answers, and I just don’t know what to do about them. I… I need help,” Adrien admitted.

            Gabriel hesitated for a moment before he gently patted Adrien’s back. “I… I admit I’m not sure how to help you, Adrien. But I’ll do my best to be there in what ways I can.”

            “That’s all I could ask. And… thank you… for listening.”

            “Boys! It’s almost dinnertime! Oh, Adrien, where is Alix?” Amelie asked.

            “Uh, she’s not here,” Adrien answered.

            “She’s with Rose. I imagine they’re, how did Sugarcube put it again? Ah, yes. The beast is ravaging the beauty,” Plagg remarked with a chuckle.

            Alim and Gabriel pursed their lips and furrowed their brows while Amelie and Adrien were confused.

            “What does that mean?” Adrien asked.

            “Yeah, what does that mean?” Amelie asked.

            Alim glanced at Amelie, then at Gabriel. “Putting a pin in that. Gabriel, have you not had that talk with Adrien?”

            Gabriel looked away and covered his mouth. “I… admit I expected Emilie to take care of that.”

            “Right. Amelie, have you had that talk with Felix?”

            “The what? Oh. Oh! I, uh, expected Colt to have done that,” Ameli admitted.

            Alim deadpanned. He groaned and pinched the bridge of his nose.

            Plagg chuckled and approached Alim. “Looks like you’ll have an interesting weekend, old man.”

            “Yes, yes. Get your cheese and go do whatever it is you do.”

            “I planned on it. I need something to take the edge off after dealing with all this chaos.”

            Alim stepped out of Plagg’s way and looked between Amelie and Gabriel. “I’ll be speaking with both of you later. For now, Adrien, can you get Felix?”

            “What about Alix?” Amelie asked.

            “I’ll put a plate aside for her.”

            “But what is she doing that she’d miss dinner?”

            Alim sighed and leaned in close. He whispered in Amelie’s ear as her face flushed red.

            “That’s what she’s doing? But she’s too young for that!” Amelie screeched.

            “Amelie, she’s fifteen, about to be sixteen in a couple months. It’s natural for teens to explore these aspects of themselves. I’m not going to shame Alix for what comes naturally to us as humans. Josi had that done to her and she… she didn’t make the best decisions in life because of it. I promised Josi that I wouldn’t put Alix through that.”

            “But-!”

            “No more, Amelie. I’ve said my piece. Now, Adrien, go get Felix. It’s dinnertime.”

When your boyfriend is a hero - Lukitty Week Day 2 2024

I had gotten distracted, but I did it. So, we've seen the episodes where Chat Noir has to be around Marinette, unknowing that she knows kitty better than he thinks. I did that, but with Luka. Reminder that this is set in the Wish universe where Luka is Scarlet Bug. Adrien has recently been given the cat miraculous and calls himself Bast Luck. Hopefully this still counts. It's still Adrien, he's just using a different name. @lukacouffaineappreciation Luka & Chat Noir (or in this case Bast Luck)

Luka knew this would have happened eventually. Getting sick from all the overworking. University classes weren’t bad, since he was doing a reduced schedule after getting extra classes done during summer break. It was just, Bob Roth decided that Kitty Section had to start their contract fully as school started for everyone involved and since the group wasn’t budging on those who helped them behind the scenes, most of the class was busy. Luka also knew a number of them would be out chasing akumas, thanks to the odd increase during the summer. Kagami had mostly spent it staying with Adrien, as her family was hosting Lila back from Japan, as she refused to return home and was apparently pitching a fit at the idea of staying at her new boarding school for the whole summer.

Akumas had been low for the summer, which was a blessing. With Su-Han taking over most of the Guardian tasks, Luka had actually gotten a break to go with Adrien to visit his family in Italy. The time there had been the subject of his first written piece for his songwriting class. Apparently, his classmates were a fan of the happy and in love emotions they got from the lyrics. Adrien used the recording as his new ringtone.

Anyway, now school had started back up and all the French heroes were busy thanks to Hawkmoth or Scarletmoth, who was showing up more and more. that added with Bob Roth’s brilliant plan to overload kids just starting new phases in their life and you ended up with Luka passing out in the middle of writing an essay so suddenly, Tikki freaked out and risked being seen to go find Juleka. Their mom was working in the middle of the French Riveria, and was ready to try and come back. Only, her current contract had actually been for charting the moving catwalk for a Fashion Week event, which turned out to be an unasked favour Jagged was doing for her. The pay check would set them up for their mom being able to stay around for a while, which they wanted, so Luka told his mom to stay put. Online classes were still done, but it did involve needing to replay recorded lectures over and set up a word document to text-to-speech live classes. Lying in bed meant he had time to work on assignments when the cold hadn’t muddled his mind. Tikki tried helping him speed along in healing, but like Plagg’s bad luck powers were a bit unpredictable, Tikki’s good luck powers were precise. She’d end up making him feel warm after shivering rather than break his fever. He appreciated the help non the less.

He was dozing off to the sounds of a book series Marc had recommended, an older one about fairies, their changeling warriors and the hidden princess of both Seelie and Unseelie courts, when the words about a war horse hiding behind long hair and beads was interrupted by the sound for an akuma attack warning. There had been one other attack during his illness and he almost ended up passing out before the fight even started. Bast Luck had to be the one to come up with a plan with his him, Scarlet Bug, Tigresse Poupre and Venom. He did well, but Luka didn’t want to place any of that stress on the others, not when they weren’t ready.

But moving…

After the noise from the notice stopped when he acknowledged it, the story started to continue only to be interrupted again by Juleka calling him.

“I don’t want you anywhere near that fight but you’re also the only one to get the akuma and make the charm, so listen ok? This is the plan.”

______________

Adrien wanted to throttle Hawkmoth on a daily bases but today was extra desirable because Luka was sick, nonna had sent the recipe for her miracle soup for her favourite devil boy and instead of making a pot to drop off to the liberty – between homework, cosplay pattern making and trying to word an email to Roth for the pictures he was promised for Kitty Section socials – he was here, actually dealing with an akumatized XY. The DJ was jealous of the popularity Kitty Section was getting and was taking it out on his father. word of targeting the band only just came up thanks to the balding yapping dog throwing them under the bus.

“I think I should go look after Luka.” Adrien suggested, while the group of them sat crouched behind an XY billboard. It was the only thing the overgrown baby wouldn’t try and destroy. “The guitar player? He’s like the true leader right?”

“Only cause he’s older. Rose is the front man.” Tigresse said before shaking her head. “I can take care of him, or better yet, get Scarlet to look after him.”

Adrien wanted to point out that Rose was less likely to be targeted because XY seemed to forget she existed half the time but Vixen interrupted him. “Where is Scarlet anyway? I asked that like 4 times already.”

Tarasq spoke from his collar. “He’s the only one who can get the akuma, unless you know of some other way?”

“I think having the person capable of destroying the item with the main person targeted is a better idea.” Adrien interrupted, trying to get their co-leader to listen to him.

“Why not focus on Adrien Rossi? He’s gone up against XY.” Tigresse reminded.

“He was also akumatized and stole XY’s voice after insulting him. I think he’ll be fine.”

“Does that mean the drummer is fine? I mean, he was the first akuma and he’s big.” Venom asked.

“Ok, but what about Juleka and Rose? Juleka is Luka’s sister and like you said, Rose is the front man. Shouldn’t we go after them?” Tarasq asked.

“Couffaine!” the akumatized XY screamed. “Show yourself, you fucking blueberry!”

Bast Luck gave Tigresse a look that screamed ‘see?’

“Ok, fine. Bast Luck, you go protect Luka. I’ll take care of Rose and Juleka. Venom, you keep an eye on Ivan. You two,” she pointed to Vixen and Tarasq, keep him distracted. I’ve got a plan, but it’s not gonna work if he has hostages or keep making a mess.”

“At least the ScarCat program will get to be used if Scarlet Bug doesn’t show up.” Vixen said, nodding to Tarasq. “Come on. think you can play keep away with a fake guitar player?”

Adrien didn’t wait much longer for Tigresse’s instructions, heading towards the Liberty. Last he heard, Luka was going to try and work on assignments, maybe sleep for as long as he could. Adrien knew his relationship with Luka was public knowledge, so he wondered if XY would go to Adrien’s house looking for Luka. the DJ was an idiot, so maybe they could luck out. how he was going to explain Adrien being missing, he didn’t know, but maybe he could expose his old Cat persona’s identity. But that might make the older one not trust him if he was willing to give out secrets so easily.

He reached the Liberty, confused when he saw Kagami’s red car and Luka getting into it. He didn’t feel bad jumping down onto the hood like Black Panther, just that the shaking startled them so bad it sent Luka into a coughing fit.

Kagami opened the sun roof, so he didn’t feel bad putting his boots all over the windshield, ignoring the computer’s voice about something being on it. “What are you doing?”

“I’d like to ask you that. My mother might be blind, but she will know if there’s a dent in the car. This thing senses everything that goes wrong with it and gives a report.” Kagami said, looking annoyed.

“Luka is being hunted by XY and he’s climbing into a car with you. I’m allowed to be concerned. Also, the city can pay for any damages Scarlet Bug can’t fix.” Adrien said, ignoring his friend to focus on his boyfriend.

Luka finally caught his breath, his eyes glassy but still looking determined. “My boyfriend’s place, I was going to go there, but Kagami’s house has better protection. We’re going over to Adrien’s apartment now to get him. My sister is with her girlfriend and Prince Ali at Le Grand Paris. I don’t know where Ivan is, but he texted that he’s ok.”

He was going to have to text the accurate locations to the others, but first… “Don’t you think XY knows about your boyfriend? Isn’t he a diplomates’ son? The Embassies have the same standard protection as things like the Mayor’s office.”

Adrien didn’t know why, but Luka got this look in his eye. he normally got it when he was keeping a secret from Adrien for a surprise.

“I’d rather just be with him. I’d feel better if I knew he was safe.”

That was so sweet. And so not helpful. Adrien wasn’t home as he was currently staring at his boyfriend, trying not to get red.

And why the hell was Luka smiling at him like that?

“I’ll bring him. Adrien. You just go to Kagami’s house and I’ll make sure Adrien gets there safe.”

“Really? See, I’ll always be a fan of Catseye but I think this is one of the reasons I love you Bast Luck.” Luka said, resting his chin on the drivers’ seat as he stared up at him, giving him the soft smile Luka gave him when he thought Adrien was being cute.

Ok, time to go. Adrien was never approaching his boyfriend as a hero ever again. Luka wasn’t even flirting, not doing a single thing that could be considered that and Adrien was nearly a mess from a few comments and looks.

_____________________

Luka felt a little bad making his boyfriend confused. He knew Kagami was going to get pulled in to fight since he and Juleka had to disappear to appear as themselves to keep XY on his toes. He had expected after Despera, Adrien wouldn’t want to split up – he had actually come to Kagami’s place, excuse that Bast Luck had to disappear to get back to the battle – but Juleka probably gave him some insistent demand that he needed to be there. As far as Adrien was aware, he’d left his boyfriend to rest inside the Tsurugi movie room while he took a while to get tea and get lost. While they were both gone and the house was empty thanks to Kagami’s mother being at the Japanese Embassy for some event or meeting, Luka was able to sneak back out onto the street. if everything was going well, Bast Luck should have XY’s item in hand with a Cataclysm and Scarlet Bug was going to show up to catch the akuma, before it spawned more.

The area by the fight was quiet except for XY’s yelling and the rumbling of buildings. He stopped by the front stoop of a building, trying to catch his breath. His hoodie was making him hot and the fuzzy pants was a choice but just a few more minutes and he could actually go back to bed.

“What are you doing here?”

Luka turned to see Bast Luck extending down on his staff.

Shit.

“Shouldn’t you be fighting?”

“Shouldn’t you be at Kagami’s house? I dropped off Adrien like I promised.”

“There you are, you blueberry!”

Fucking hell. XY, in all his weird, cheap Daft Punk look managed to get away and landed practically right on top of him. Luka spotted his sister, dress in her purple suit, looking panicked. Everything moved at once, XY screaming in anger, Bast Luck jumping towards them both, Tigresse yelling something and then the whole world spinning. Luka had to close his eyes to not be ill, only opening his eyes at the sound of Bast Luck’s staff. He was in Bast Luck’s arms, watching Ryuoko and Tigresse attack XY, rather violently. Kagami didn’t like XY and well, he’d do the same if the DJ tried attacking his sister out of costume.

The two landed on a roof a decent distance away and Luka felt worse at the worried look on Adrien’s face. “Are you ok? He didn’t get you did he?”

“No, no. I’m fine. thank you for saving me.”

Bast Luck looked annoyed, which, fair. “I wouldn’t need to if you stayed inside. You knew he was looking for you.”

“I know. I just…got worried he’d go after everyone else to get to me. I’m not exactly his favourite person.”

“I don’t think your boyfriend will exactly be happy with you when he hears about this.”

Luka knew that but if they wanted to end this now, Bast Luck had to get back to the fight. “He’ll be less thrilled if he finds out Team Miraculous couldn’t destroy the akuma in time.”

“Ah!. Ok, stay here! I’ll take you back myself ok?”

Tikki poked her head out when Bast Luck joined in attacking XY. “Poor Adrien. He’s gonna have a heart attack if Juleka can’t keep him busy so you can get back here. I’ve had some crazy experiences where holders don’t know everyone’s identity, but this had to be the most convoluted plan ever. You do plan on telling him right?”

“I will, just not right now. Once Su Han is more established as Guardian. Besides, it’s kinda cute watching your superhero boyfriend try not to overly panic when his supposedly civilian boyfriend is in trouble.”

Tikki sighed. “And here I thought my Egyptian holder trying to hide this from Anthony was bad enough.”

______________

Adrien found Luka curled up on one of the reclining chairs Bast Luck had left him in. It was weird finding out he could easily lift his boyfriend when sporting cat ears, since he was so used to feeling Luka’s weight whenever he laid on him. Seeing him out in the streets, seconds before XY spotted him took years off his life. Scarlet Bug had really crap timing, taking so long, but thankfully Luka didn’t try any other crazy self-sacrificing ideas and was waiting on the roof after Tigresse insisted on talking to the whole team while Scarlet Bug disappeared after fixing everything and shoving an anti-akumatization charm at XY.

“Hey. Time is it?” Luka asked, blinking tiredly at him. He had seemed pretty exhausted when Bast Luck brought him back to Kagami’s house. As much as Adrien wanted to call him out, Adrien had been in the kitchen for 30 minutes getting tea, not fighting an akuma who was after him, his boyfriend and the rest of their band because he got jealous of the attention. As far as Adrien knew, Luka stay right there in his seat, not at all whisked away and scolded by a hero with cat ears.

“Not long. how you feeling? I was going to start making soup when Bast Luck came to get me. You do know it probably would have been safer to stay separated right?” Adrien said, putting the mug down on the flat armrest and managing to snuggle in with Luka on the chair, letting the older boy use his lap as a pillow.

“Juleka was with Rose. Besides, you can’t tell me you didn’t enjoy being whisked away by a hero.”

Adrien raised an eyebrow. “I’ve met Scarlet Bug, twice in a situation where I could talk to him. Wasn’t that big a deal.”

Luka gave this sleepy smile. “I don’t know. I think I really like Bast Luck. He was very nice. Cute too, up close.” Adrien cleared his throat, not annoyed at the comment but he had to keep the lie up. “but you’re cuter.”

Adrien ran his hands through Luka’s hair. “Go to sleep. Trust me, when you wake up, you won’t even think Bast Luck is cuter than me.” Not if he had anything to say about it. he was not about to compete with his hero persona for his boyfriend’s attention.

Now only if he’d caught the smile Luka wore when he was teasing Adrien with information he already knew, maybe it would have started to click for the Italian boy, but for now, the secrets of Scarlet Bug and Bast Luck stayed where they were.

Book Obsession

Kagami Sakishima x (Fem) Reader

Note: I’m still kinda pissed that Kagami doesn’t get enough appreciation! (˃̣̣̥ᯅ˂̣̣̥)

♡ FLUFF / DRABBLE ♡

Summary: Oh just the two book lovers, who are girlfriend and boyfriend, just sticking their noses into their books ⸜(｡˃ ᵕ ˂ )⸝♡

♥︎ dividers by: @saradika-graphics ♥︎

You would constantly spend a month, a week or a day talking about your love for books to that certain somebody who happens to be your amazing, loving boyfriend. Kagami Sakishima, your one and only. The member of Helios and He’s a Scard.  Yeah, that Kagami Sakishima. 

Surprisingly, you two have been together for four years. Crazy, right? Kagami has laid his eyes on you ever since you started hanging around the Titan cafe. He spotted you reading a very fascinating book by the table. Eiji, smoking in front of the counter, noticed his best friend staring at you. Smirking away as he walked up to you and started talking in Kagami’s stand. 

Kagami gathered his courage, rushing quickly up to you and gently pushing Eiji away before he could embarrass you more. 

“H-hi there…” Kagami nervously greeted you. 

You gave a little giggle, finding his greeting adorable, “Hello there…” 

And that….is how you two met. Eiji smiled proudly at his best friend’s courage to speak to you while taking another drag from his cigarette.

“Come on, Kagami!” You dragged your boyfriend by holding his hand, hopping off to the book stall where they were showing new romance novels on the shelves and table. 

Kagami chuckled at your eagerness, knowing you were dying to get new books to read, “Alright, alright, my love…I’m coming.” 

Eiji slipped his hands into his pockets, blowing a little mist of smoke from his cigarette, “Well, well…the two look quite happy together…wouldn’t you say, bro?” He moved his head over to his younger brother Kazuma.

“Yeah whatever..” Kazuma rolled his eyes, he wasn’t showing a sign of disgust or anything like that. He was truly happy for you and Kagami. Eiji gave a cheeky chuckle to his response, “Don’t tell me that my younger brother is jealous.” 

Kazuma’s face rose up with an exploding heat of blushing red, “S-shut up! As if I need someone in my life!” 

“Well, you will never know…” Eiji placed his cigarette between his slender fingers, blowing out a longing smoke. 

“One day, you’re going to find the love of your life, big bro…” 

“Yeah well guys like me have no time for love, bro. Besides…” Eiji added, taking a slight pause looking over his best friend Kagami who is getting teased by you, showering him with all your affection, “I don’t think I deserve that kind of love…” 

You clung onto Kagami’s arm, your head pressing against his shoulder, “Oh Kagami, I love you!” The words caused Kagami’s heart to skip a beat. Feeling a wave of fuzzy, loving emotions coursing through him, “I love you too, my sweet dove.” 

Eiji and Kazuma decided to stay out for a bit while you were headed back with Kagami to the Titan cafe to read the new books you bought from the book stall. Holding each other’s hands or cuddling each other as you both dive into a world of fantasy. Kagami decided to chill at your apartment afterwards, taking plenty of books with him to yours. Which, of course, you didn’t seem to mind since the two of you are both book addicts. You snuggled up to Kagami on the couch while holding the fantasy-action book in your hands, already flipping to another new chapter. Kagami finds it utterly adorable when you rest your head on his lap while sticking your nose to a book that you’re currently reading. As you were seemingly distracted. Kagami leaned in and snuck a kiss to your forehead. Your face flushing with a slight bright red dotting on your cheeks. You decided to get a little payback, peppering his face with your sweet kiss attacks.

a/n - I'm still highly upset that there's not a lot of Project Scard fanfics on here (ᴗ_ ᴗ。)

I feel like I'm the only one that writes them XD

Also, another thing, I kept imagining Kagami calling his S/O 'my sweet dove' because I believe that's the nickname he would say to his special lady ( ˘ ³˘)♥︎
