Lovers in the Night

Summary: two lovers of different worlds. One of peace, one of danger, but the love is still there. Comforting one another turns into a sad promise. POV: 2nd POV Pronouns: Gender Neutral Admin/Writer: Kai⚔️ Tags: Jade Leech, Mafia Jade, fluff turned slightly angst, romance, already developed relationship Word Count: 978

Jade cautiously walked around. He remained vigilant with a calm smile on his face as he walked through town. His eyes would dart towards anything suspicious or any sudden sounds, until he reached a certain shop. It seemed that it only opened in the middle of the night.

He held an umbrella over his head and, to the few passing strangers, all they could see was that calm demeanor he carried. The night was filled with the sounds of sprinkling rain splashing on the ground or the windows in the streets. He was heading somewhere, and the only thing passersby could think was to get out of his way. To those that recognized him, on the other hand, froze and quickly stepped aside without looking directly into his eyes.

A bell rang as he opened the door to the shop. The strong aroma of coffee and the sounds of grinded coffee beans dripping into empty cups greeted him.

"Jade! You're here…" 

A voice so sweet to his ears caught his attention. At that moment, his head turned towards its direction. That voice came from you, and it warmed that calm, chilling smile into a genuine one.

Jade sat down at his normal spot, a stool at the front counter, and a cup of coffee was sitting right in front of him faster than he could blink. He looked up to meet the only pair of eyes that could help him relax. These eyes that changed his calm demeanor so easily, they belonged to you.

You smiled at him, and you felt your face get hotter when your eyes met. He gave a silent nod before taking a sip from the ceramic mug. He hummed in content as his eyes closed, and that noise gave you a hint of satisfaction to your work—just like it always did.

“Your coffee doesn't change at all, does it?” Jade asked after a few more moments of silence. You were cleaning the used utensils, and his sudden question made you jump a little from surprise.

“Well, how could I change it?” You responded after a few seconds of ppndering over his words. You continued to clean the dishes, and Jade only responded with a laugh. After what felt like forever, a clink was heard, then the scrapes of a moving chair reached your ears.

Once you turned around, your body was met with a firm grip around your waist, and Jade held your head against him. The atmosphere suddenly became solemn and tense. It was as if he was trying to protect the moment that was being shared in this small bubble that you considered your shop.

You were confused at first, then your mind suddenly understood what he was trying to portray with such a gesture. You hugged him in return and simply smiled at the warmth of his embrace.

You remained quiet for a while, and you just let him give you his silent affection. If you tried to pull back from his embrace, his arms and hands only pulled you tighter against him. These actions could only make you smile more, and a small laugh escaped your lips every time.

Your laugh made Jade smile, and he let out a quiet breath of relaxation.

“What’s with all this?” You asked him, and he instantly shook his head. He slowly pulled away a little to take a look at your face.

Shortly after, you felt his lips against yours in a gentle kiss. His hold on you became protective again, and your heart that was warm from the gesture slowly filled with dread. A few moments passed by, then you pulled back with a caring smile.

“Nothing at all? Jade Leech, I know you. Is it… your job?” You asked again as you looked into his eyes. Instantly, his expression, once filled with love for you, turned to one of seriousness mixed with defeat at how you figured him out.

You sighed softly at his reaction and looked away from his eyes. You began to feel worry, and anxiety rose within you. That ominous dread was becoming overwhelming, and you couldn’t help but become visibly frustrated.

You knew what Jade did for a living. He was the underboss of the country’s biggest mafia. This came with him being busy and gone for weeks, sometimes months, on end. He would come to this cafe to see you. Although, most of the time, seeing him consisted of treating his wounds for him. You didn’t like it, but he promised you that he'll always be safe.

Jade noticed your reaction and gently took your chin in between his fingers, making you look at him with a bittersweet expression.

“Hey, you know that no matter the case, I will protect you. I promise. Even if it is the last thing I do—”

“Don’t say that.” You interrupted him. A sigh left you as you tried to gather your words. “I don’t want to hear anything that has something to do with ‘last’ coming out of your mouth. We talked about this. You know that I don’t like it.”

Jade sighed in defeat and nodded slowly, “Right. Then, let’s just enjoy the time we have. Why don’t we?” He was gentle again, and he started to relax before he hugged you again. You let out a breath, hugging him in return, and relaxing against his body.

As the night continued, the rain grew stronger and so did the feelings you had for one another. You didn’t let him go as your arms grew tighter around him. Jade placed a few kisses on your head to bring you some comfort. A stranger could tell that the feelings of a strong love were shared, and it was only natural. I mean… no one knew if, one day, the lovers would be lost to the dark of the night.

Frostbite Writer

The impossible writer. A walking contradiction, so beautiful, with pain wrapped all wound you. Your characters taste the best and worst of this world, just like you did. And they get hurt, covered in scars and with their heart in pieces, but they keep walking, pain in their eyes and in their every step. But just like your characters, you don't give up. Everything hurts, but you still go on. Your stories are deep, sometimes the reader needs to read through the lines, sometimes not, but the feelings you describe linger in your reader's hearts for long. You're able to leave a print. Usually you write stories that carry with them the burden you had to carry, but when you write about a pure love, your readers will find the comfort of a hug from a loved one. You're passionate, love hard and forever. Frostbite Writers tasted the bitter of life, and know how to keep immortal a feeling. Your stories will make your reader lose themselves in another universe, and when they come back, something will be changed forever.

Why does it describe me so perfectly without even trying 😶

Bonus little blurb that inspired me to draw the YBM bad ending comic. It obviously went off track from this but I like to think of this as an ‘alternate ending’:

He didn’t want Hero to see his eyes.

Every time he did, he knew it was him. Not Omori. And although he loved him dearly Sunny just… couldn’t face him.

Head bowed, he felt the weakness in his body, the fuzziness of his head; the screaming of Omori in the back of his mind to come back to White Space, immediately.

A large curtained window caught his attention. He tried to remember:.. why it was so important…

He stood up on shaky legs and went to the window, before throwing the curtains open.

“Omori?” Hero asked, investigating immediately. Sunny froze, before turning to him. Hero’s hand shook slightly under his gaze. “Sunny… how are you? It’s been a while, hasn’t it?”

Sunny looked away, out the window., and then worked up his courage.

“Can we go outside?”

“It’s a bit too late for a walk now… I’m making dinner, too.”

Sunny wasn’t sure how long he could stay lucid. Omori’s presence was pushing him aside, he had to focus on not falling asleep. Besides; it was barely sunset.

He looked back to Hero, refusing to succumb. Not yet.

“Please…”

Hero stood there, thinking about it with a hand on his hip. He sighed.

“Tomorrow morning we can go, alright Sunny?” Hero asked hopefully.

“… I want to go now.”

“Sunny, no, just hang on a little longer okay? Just until tomorrow morning, please? For me?”

“…” Sunny didn’t want to make a promise he knew he couldn’t keep, Omori’s presence making the surroundings static. He should just give up. He was good at that, wasn’t he? Tears came to his eye.

Hero hugged him, and Sunny leaned into him reflexively. “Tomorrow, okay? We can even make a habit of it. Just… stay with me, Sunny…”

Sunny wondered if he was being unreasonable, and he also wondered why he felt sick to his stomach. Omori wasn’t that bad of a roommate, was he? No, that wasn’t just it… he… he wasn’t supposed to-

Static overwhelmed his senses and he opened his eyes to White Space. What… had he been trying to remember? Sitting underneath the mysterious black lightbulb, Sunny closed his eyes and waited for something to happen.

Cinderella’s Bet [Part 2]

Summary: Vil takes you out for the day, as per the bet from the day before during the party, how will it go? will you be able to fall in love with the Pomefiore Housewarden? POV: 2nd person Pronouns: Gender Neutral

Admin/Writer: Kai⚔ Tags: Photoshoot Date, Fluff, Slight Angst, Vil Schoenheit, Romance, Teasing, Kiss Scene Word count: 1,816 Part 1 - Part 3

Vil stood in front of the Ramshackle door with his arms behind his back, slowly taking deep breaths. He thought about what Rook told him last night after everyone went back to their rooms and dorms.

“Roi Du Poison, what exactly are you planning?”

“Of course you’d like to know. As if you weren’t the one behind this idea.”

“What could you ever mean by that? I’d never—"

Vil was staring in Rook’s direction, deadpan expression with a visible vein wanting to pop near his eye.

“I jest,” Rook laughed, taking a step back. “I’ll retire to my chambers for the night. I wish you all the best in your endeavors tomorrow, my queen.”

With that, Vil watched as Rook basically strode out of the lounge. He sighed and massaged the space between his eyes for a few seconds. He pulled his smartphone out and checked his schedule for the next day.

“A photoshoot is all… Hmm…” He said to himself and paced slowly around the lounge. He did this for a while before heading to sleep.

His reminisce stopped as he gasped, checking the time. 10 am sharp. He thought about calling your phone, but he didn’t even have the chance. The door slowly opened as you tried not to make too much noise.

Standing, Vil watched you exit your dorm. His face was surprisingly cold as he watched you.

“Morning V—is something wrong?”

Silence.

Awkward…

You cleared your throat and he took a breath, seeming like he wanted to say something.

“Let’s head off.”

Both of you began walking down the sidewalk. You reached halfway down before you saw a russian violet vehicle waiting in front of the gate. It looked like a… limo?!

You stopped in your tracks, looking at Vil and trying to find the words to your surprise.

“What’s wrong, Prefect?” Vil asked after turning around, noticing the expression of shock and confusion on your face. He looked towards the direction your eyes stared at and laughed for a slight second. He took your hand to bring you back to reality.

“Vil?”

“Don’t worry, this is how I travel around outside of the college. We have a few places to go around today, but for now, you get to enjoy a view of me and the streets.” Vil took you to the car and opened the door once close enough, letting you go first before entering himself.

Once the door closed, awkward silence had fallen over you both. The only sound breaking the silence being the noises of the moving car. The tension was so thick, it would take a butcher’s knife to cut through it.

What was supposed to happen now? Should you say something or—

You had glanced over and felt your heart skip a beat. What in the—? You felt a slight heat rise to your cheeks as your head instinctively turned towards the older student.

His eyes were looking at you, yet you couldn’t tell what emotions were behind them.

“Is something the matter?”

His voice had dropped a bit since before, and it felt like an enchantment on your brain. What was wrong with you? You’d never seen Vil this way, but there you both were. Sitting in a car, just a few inches away from getting closer.

You could only shake your head and look away, then take a deep breath to calm yourself down. You heard some movement coming from your blind spot and turned back, being met with Vil who was now just a few inches away from you.

You yelped and tried to back away. As you tried to lean back, there was a hand on the small of your back that kept you from moving. His other hand made his way to move a few strands of hair away from your face, then Vil smiled after having a clearer view. As if the close proximity wasn’t enough.

“Everyone should have a perfect appearance, but you don’t need it. You’re already perfect, dearest Prefect.” His hand grazed your forehead, then led down to rest on your cheek. Two fingers under your jawline to keep you from trying to turn away if you tried.

You could only place your hands on his shoulders, and gentle as you could. His eyes stared deeply into yours, and those amethyst eyes had you mesmerized for… you couldn’t tell how long anymore. It felt like a spell, yet one of the purest that light magic could bring from something of a dark user.

There was a faint feeling that reassured you that this would be as far as he’d go. The more you looked into his eyes, the more your heart began to pound and your face seemed like it could burn whoever touched your skin the way it is now.

You noticed how flawless his skin was, like a porcelain doll. Something unreal to the human eye. You felt nothing for Vil, yet you began to think about how you could at least touch his cheek once in your lifetime. These thoughts were new, but you weren’t complaining in the slightest.

The tension was still there, but it wasn’t awkward anymore. Staying that way had only made you think “will he let go?”, “What does this mean?”, and just other thoughts about how pretty his features were.

Suddenly, the car stopped. Vil gently let you go, snapping you back into reality. “We’re here, I hope you’re ready.” He spoke. You waited a bit, watching as the door lifted and the housewarden stepped out.

Vil noticed as soon as his feet reached the ground that there was silence, and he turned his head to face your direction. His hand slowly reached out to you and he gave a gentle smile. “You can’t stay in the car. This is a date, remember?”

You jumped and slowly took his hand. You looked around to make sure you wouldn’t leave anything behind. Vil gently pulled you from the seat and off the car, taking your other hand to help you regain your balance once you stepped onto the ground.

Vil closed the door behind you and bowed to the driver, who then waved and left the area. You watched as the car disappeared and turned to look at Vil, who again was staring at you.

“Ready to go? It’s this building,“ he spoke. You couldn’t form words, so you simply nodded. He never let go of your hand. In fact, Vil intertwined his fingers and slowly walked until you matched his pace.

He entered the building and the staff greeted Vil. Both of you returned the gestures. Yet, said gestures were then followed by slight gasps and whispering. You put your head down in embarrassment, but your movement around the building stopped.

“Why is your head down? Be confident. You’re with me, so there’s nothing to be embarrassed or scared about, Potato.” His words rang in your head as you looked at him. He greeted your look with a smile and a squeeze to your hand, laughing a bit with you and heading into the elevator to head to the designated floor.

Immediately, once you both had arrived, Vil was taken to get his hair and makeup done along with an outfit. The staff there had you sit in a chair where Vil was able to see you. Soon after, he came out and the shoot began.

You could only watch as Vil put on an amazing performance of poses and gestures. His smile captured your heart before you realized, and you were starstruck. You couldn’t turn away. The hair and makeup weren’t needed as you already knew about his beauty as soon as you met him back then.

Soon enough, the shoot was over, but everyone stayed in place to look at you.

Vil came up to your chair and gestured for a few stylists to come over. “Get them ready. It’s time for what we planned.” After that, he was taken away to change as well.

Getting ready in just a short time, you were told what the concept was and what you would be doing by the photographer. “You’ll mostly follow Vil’s lead. He planned this out, so he will know best where you should be.”

You nodded in understanding as Vil slowly came up and set his arms on your shoulders. “Just relax and be natural. Imagine the camera isn’t there. It’s just you and me in this room.”

His voice started making you nervous, but you nodded and put your hands against his as they hung off your shoulders.

Fingers intertwined, Vil stepped closer. At this point, his chest was resting on your back and his head was against yours. Both of you looking into the lens, many flashes hit your eyes as you tried not to blink.

So many poses just like that were done for the photos. Each time your eyes would meet, it was like time stopped. An electric spark went down your spine every time his hands would slightly graze your body. You had to constantly remind yourself that this was just a bet, and by midnight, this would never happen again.

At the final pose, you and Vil stood in front of each other, only a few inches apart. Your head looked towards the camera as he stared right at you. Once the photo was taken, you tried to move, but he kept you in place.

“One more photo. Do you mind?” Vil said and you turned your head, now just mere centimeters away from him. His gaze was so strong that you could see the temptation through his eyes.

Your eyes could only look into his, the purple eyes enchanting you once again. "This photo… would you allow me?” He asked and glanced at your lips, then back into your eyes.

You could only nod. You couldn’t even notice the camera flashing as Vil set his lips against yours, so gently yet so sweetly.

Quicker than you would’ve liked, he pulled away and the staff cheered for you both along with being done with the shoot in one day.

Everyone calmed down and packed up, thanking those who took the time to be there to help with the shoot. Vil walked to the car with you, hand in hand again.

You couldn’t help but think about the kiss. His lips against yours. The warmth, the sensation, everything about it made you a little lightheaded.

The day passed with Vil taking you to his favorite casual restaurant, cafe, heck even a walkway. Yes. Even someone like Vil likes to settle down and be at a casual scene every once in a while.

Exchanging questions of common interest and jokes every now and then really helped. It didn’t feel like a bet at that point. You had completely gone under his spell.

But even Cinderella got a happy ending, didn’t she?

When Ga1ahad was created, he noticed Lancel0t and asked Tellulu about him.

Tellulu responds with something like "That's the failure I needed to create you."

Ga1ahad nods and life is relatively peaceful until Tellulu realizes Ga1ahad has some flaws, so she ends up trying to kill him, fails, and the tensions start to rise immensely.

Ga1ahad, lost and incredibly stressed, ends up going to Lancel0t's body and talks to him. He wishes that he could reply to him.

Tellulu decides to reanimate Lancel0t to "Show the new upgrade what such a failure looks like."

Lancel0t can't move because he's hooked up to so many things, but he can speak some words and respond to what Ga1ahad's saying.

Ga1ahad ends up visiting Lancel0t quite often, and teaches him all sorts of things along with his venting. They quickly become friends.

Tellulu quickly takes advantage of Ga1ahad's relationship with Lancel0t to force him to do his bidding.

Ga1ahad is driven to desperately study alchemy so that he can save Lancel0t, and his studious, submissive but snarky self seems so human that Tellulu ends up falling in love with him. Despite himself, Ga1ahad finds himself falling in love with her as well in an odd, terribly abusive fashion.

When their tensions are at their height, Tellulu ends up killing Lancel0t in a 'it's him or me' fashion. In the height of Ga1ahad's despair, he ends up rushing in blindly and Tellulu finally manages to kill him.

Thus the events of 'Ga1ahad and Scientific Witchery' begin. Ga1ahad is brought back to life, given some upgrades, and forced on some missions. Tellulu tries to kill him again, fails, and they get into another fight. They 'make up', but Ga1ahad asks Tellulu to revive Lancel0t again she refuses. In a rush of fury, he leaves, trying to be rid of both her and Lancel0t once and for all.

Not ordered and demanded by others, it comes to me so naturally

A slowness that is mine

Unhurried, but focused, the same way a lioness stalks her prey

I am not the sloth you envisioned me to be, I say as my fangs scrape against my lips and twigs silently bend but do not snap beneath my feet

Your words are carried away by the rushing river

And the world waits with bated breath as I rise.
