Trick or treat Narita and Mai

Come trick or treating in my inbox! Leave a “Trick or Treat” and a character or ship in an ask, and I’ll treat you to some autumn-themed fluff or trick you with some twisted spooky aus!

Trick So as usual, Ezzy and I have no chill, and may or may not have challenged each other to take a list of pretty, soft autumn prompts and use those for our tricks this year. At least, that’s what I heard, in between the sass and the frankly terrifying butter gifs… Anyway, this one's prompt is "walking past somewhere you heard is haunted."

They said the old house was haunted. They talked about it in whispers, glancing at it askance and shuffling past more quickly than the houses on either side. The neighborhood kids made up songs about it and dared each other to step across the threshold of the gate, though none of them ever did. The neighborhood moms laughed at their children’s antics, but they certainly never stepped closer, either. The neighborhood teenagers pretended not to care, to be too old for childish fears, but they too gave it nervous looks. The more superstitious would hold their breath as they passed by.

Kazuhito knew all of this, knew exactly why he shouldn’t be there the day he walked up the overgrown path to the big old house on the hill. But something about the place, its sad old visage and the way the trees creaked in warning and the skittering leaves across the path, something didn’t feel dangerous to him. It just felt lonely. When he reached the front steps, when he pressed his hand to the wood of the door, when he looked up at the peeling paint and the crooked shutters and the spot where there had once been a welcome mat but was now just a patch of evidence of what once was, that loneliness settled into his bones.

“Oh,” he breathed. “No one’s been here in a very long time, have they?”

He reached into his bag and pulled out what little he had, just a pair of incense sticks, a holder, and a lighter.

“It’s not much,” he said. “I honestly wasn’t expecting to come here today. I’ve been thinking abou tit, sure, but I hadn’t actually decided… Anyway. Like I said, it’s not much, but I hope it helps, just a little.” He bent to place the holder on the welcome matt’s outline, slipping the ends of the sticks inside. “I can come back sometime, maybe in a few days, and leave something else. Whatever you were, once, it’s not fair for you to be stuck here, avoided and forgotten.”

He lit the incense and lowered his head in prayer, just for a moment. Then, with a smile at the face of the old house, he stood and left.

She watched from the upper window, unseen and unnoticed, but she herself seeing and noticing everything. He would be back, she knew. She had a way of knowing these things, a sense for the game that humans played. She had done her research, after all, though such things were difficult when she was trapped within these walls.

Well, she thought, slipping through wood and concrete, between nails and stones, down to the front steps to mingle with the smoke, not for long. Soon she would have a new body, a strong young man’s body, to take her out into the town once more.

He would be back, and sooner than he thought. She already had her hooks in him.

Leaning back into the door and watching a pair of children race past on the sidewalk, she smiled. Only a matter of time, now.

Can you draw Narita and Mai again for the rarepair requests? I love how you draw them and that you also ship them 💕

my loves, a well dressed couple.

Because I was thinking about it while drawing this you can have a few headcanons. I think they met and exchanged phone numbers in their second year when Karasuno and Date were getting closer, but maybe didn't start publicly dating until after they graduated. Ennoshita and Kinoshita probably knew all along, so did Aone and Pantaloons.

(i think it's funny if Onagawa just knows what's going on with everyone in a sort of he's always got one earbud in so no one thinks he's actually listening deal)

Tanaka and Noya definitely freaked about it. As did Futakuchi with opposite energy, he warms up to Narita.

Could you draw mai with the person you do ship her with? (if ya don't mind!)

It's Narita!! He's a good guy, he'd treat her right.

I may have gone a little overboard with this, I just, ya know. It's them!! They silently start dating in highschool, and just become a stable presence.

EnnoYachi

I see these two having more of a siblings type bond? Ennoshita would be protective of Yachi and they'd work together really well as captain and manager.

Narita and Mai

Ya know I can get behind this one! Futakuchi would make fun of Mai being into a boring guy, but she deals with Dateko all day it's kind of a breath of fresh air to be around someone like Narita.
