Here are 100 random quotes from Lucifer!

Sourced from the OM! Wiki, chats, devilgram, screenshots I found, etc. I made this list to help with studying to write the characters in character. (Not really proofread, sorry if there are mistakes. Also, there may be spoilers. If so, they’re minor spoilers)

✧༺⚜️༻✧

“Do you want my attention? Why don't we talk for a little then? I have enough energy for that. As your presence is so very soothing to me.“

“Heh, not afraid to get sassy with me anymore, are you?”

“Let's celebrate until you cannot stand anymore.“

“No need to rush. I won't be able to help you if you fall down in the middle of the street. Rather, I would probably enjoy the sight.”

“...Well? How do you like Demonus-flavored kisses?“

“I believe it's long been established that if anyone's going to be eating them, it will be me.“

“If you want me to keep you from running that mouth of yours, you need only ask.“

“Are you poking fun at me right now? I see you like to play with fire. Well, there's a punishment for getting cheeky with me like that. Come here, MC”

“I am exceedingly concerned…”

“Now Listen, and listen well. I will not be your possession. I won’t belong to you. You will belong to me.”

“You seem repentant, so I shall forgive you.”

“Are you still tired from last night? After all, I didn’t let you get much sleep.”

“I will watch over you. Until the day comes where we must part. And I promise... to love you until the end of your days and beyond.”

“You... Release me! Don't you dare try to put me to sleep like I'm not ten million years older than you!”

“All of you, out of the way...! I'm going to tear that human limb from limb…!”

"Are you trying to please me?"

"Do you need a goodnight kiss?"

"You are a strange human being."

"You want me to praise you for that? Very well… Good iob."

"Fine, I'll forgive you just this once."

"Do you need something?"

“It's as if you're saying that you need me in your life, and that's a wonderful feeling. Is it conceited of me to say that? Well, I am the Avatar of Pride, after all."

“Stab it with a fork or something. Anything sharp should do the trick.“

"I can't say I mind spending my time with you while Mammon's shrieks echo in the background either. Heh! And Diavolo's laughter is even louder than that."

“Well, there are worse demons it could have happened to... Probably.”

“Asmo, you stay right there. I'll go get my whip.“

“Hush now. Daddy's here to give you a hug.“

“NONONONONONO! I'm saying I DON'T want them to see that picture. So, if they ask you for it, I'd like you to tell them that no such photo exists. OK?”

“That won't be necessary. I went ahead and blew it up. The entire room.“

"If you want to get the better of me, that toy of yours isn't going to cut it. Perhaps try lethal poison from some horrific insect, aged a thousand years for maximum potency."

“I know, I know... But why don't we save the killing until after you've eaten your breakfast, hm?“

“Mmm, nothing's sweeter than listening to their screams of agony. Heheheh...”

“Bring him down to the living room. Use whatever means necessary…though I do want him alive.“

”I would never have imagined I would be kissed on the cheek by you. I don't dislike it when you take the initiative. But why on the cheek? You don't need to hesitate with me. Next time, do it on the lips. Understand?”

“Hell coffee becomes bitter when you prepare it for someone that you're fond of. It's a special property of the coffee beans. Naturally, I drank every last drop of your feelings.”

“Only those that haven't been involved in that dolt's childish antics are the truly happy ones.”

“When I get my hands on him, I'll have to be thorough with my discipline.”

“Tomorrow I will be handing Diavolo a report detailing how all of the exchange students are faring. I'll be sure to stress how excited you are to continue your education here at our prestigious academy.”

“How's the Celestial Realm? Unlike the Devildom, you don't have to worry about anyone grabbing you and eating you for lunch there, do you?”

“You've got Solomon with you as well, so you should relax and enjoy your time there.“

“If only my brothers were as obedient as you are. It is not every day that you get the chance to have me indebted to you. You can expect a one-hundred times return on the investment of your time, that I promise. In return, I expect that you won't let me down.”

“How naive. If you don't want me to have wasted my time by informing you, be sat in your seat at the table within the next sixty seconds. It will be just you and me. Let us enjoy the rare breakfast together before my brothers ruin the atmosphere.”

“Don't get cocky, MC.”

“One spoke at length about the clothing on the Diavolo sticker. It waxed lyrical about how exquisite the design choices were.”

“However, I discovered a slew of insults written in invisible ink on the page.“

“How could you tell? You really know me well, MC! Hehehe. I was drinking Demonus with Diavolo earlier. And you know, he kept saying all these nice things about you... Let me tell you, I'm also really happy you're down here with us.”

“…Who even came up with the idea that whoever empties their bottle first, wins...? Oh, right. I did... My bad. Ah, my head is spinning. Good night MC. Love you.”

“Ugh, you thickheaded fool of a demon! What's your skull made of? Granite?”

“That's a curse meant to make you stub your toe on the leg of a table… But if you actually do stub your toe, it hurts quite a bit.”

“MC. It has come to my attention that Mammon and Asmo took you out for a drive recently. Well, how was it? Enjoyable? …I'm glad to hear it. We all need breaks from the daily grind from time to time. l'd like you to join me for a drive next time. I'll give you a taste of euphoric freedom that those two could never dream of. Prepare for the time of your life.”

“If you'd like, we could take a shower together.”

“After all, I haven't managed to seduce you yet. I'm going to need more time.”

“The three highest-ranked demons in the realm, frolicking about in a frivolous pajama party? How absurd.”

“I didn't hear a word you just said. I know nothing about it, and I'm going to keep it that way.”

“I see. Then I should be allowed to take a similar photo of you, no? Come stay over in my room again tonight.”

“Don't be stupid. I will not allow myself to be clad in demon garb. I'm going to strip off every last piece of it this very instant and fling it as far away from me as I can.”

“You're a demon. I'm surprised someone like you is able to feed me lines like that with a straight face. You've got some nerve.”

“Heheheh. Well, he is my brother, after all, so I thought I'd go easy on him. So, should I make this quick, or go slowly, bit by bit? Your choice.”

“So, tell me. what's with the Little D.? The one looking at me with that moronic expression...”

“You think you stand a chance against me?! You think you could defeat Lucifer, Avatar of Pride?“

“Well, aren't you persistent. I suppose you won't be happy until you've pummeled the door senseless?”

“...Just what were you hoping to accomplish by knocking me down like this, hm? Because doing something like that to me, right now… is making it much harder for me to control myself...!”

“Given that you were the one who pounced first, you can't complain when the tables are turned, can you? …I'm so thirsty, I can hardly think straight. I trust you understand what that means.”

“To show my thanks, I suppose I'm not against giving you some special treatment. You'll have to come closer. I'll give you my lap until you're satisfied. ...You'll keep me company until then, won't you?”

"You deserve a thank you."

"Sorry, this isn't exactly my cup of tea. I was hoping you'd know me better."

"It appears to me you know what pleases me."

"Are you really trying to tickle me? Heheheh, you'll have to do much better than that."

"Pff...if you think that tickles, you're wrong."

"Well, if you insist on touching me, then be my guest.”

"Well, hello. How are things?"

"You've got some nerve keeping me waiting. Well now, what are you going to do about it?"

"I'm back. Hm? ...Did you miss me?"

"*sigh* I've had a long day. But seeing you has a way of making me feel better."

"Sorry, I had some business to take care of. Well, well, you certainly seem happy to see me."

"Done? Let's continue this in my room."

"Good night... We'll meet again in our dreams."

"I feel like we both have a nice day ahead of us."

"I enjoyed our time together. Perhaps we should do this again."

“You do know what I'm capable of... don't you?"

"Happy Easter. Will you accept it, my little bunny?"

"Once you're officially a sorcerer, I'd like you to become powerful enough to shut up Solomon for me."

“Very well. Here I go. Lucifer Kick!”

“Why should I be subjected to the indignation of a pat on the head from you?”

“After all, it's a bit like tossing a helpless lamb into the middle of a pack of hungry wolves, isn't it? But it's also important to understand just who it is you're eating, wouldn't you say?“

“It means that I see you as prey, too. Just like the others. It goes without saying that I'm far stronger than you. If I were to pin you down right here and now, you wouldn't be able to do anything about it, now would you? How about we give it a try...?“

“You will soon enough.”

“When a vampire feeds, it's not like his human prey feels only pain. Quite the opposite, actually. They're overcome with a feeling of unimaginable ecstasy. The truth is that you want this as well, don't you? You want to feel my arms around you, to give yourself up to me and offer up your blood... You're special. I won't drink you dry...no. I'm going to kiss you again and again, all over your body. Indulging in you just a bit each and every night. And I do mean every night. No other vampire will ever know the taste of your blood…”

“Do you have any idea how hard I had to struggle not to do this earlier...? It was all I could do to resist throwing my arms around you right in front of everyone at the party.”

“MC… I missed you. I can tell just from the way you feel against me. I can sense what you're feeling.I'm sorry, MC. ...Sorry it took me so long to get to you. You should really stay with me tonight. We need to make up for all the time lost.“

“You're drunk, you idiot. Oh well, I'll go along with you just for today. Bottoms up.”

“Me? Intoxicated? Preposterous. I'm my usual old self.”

“You are also fond of me, no?“

“Then come over here. Are you holding back? Come closer. Prepare yourself. If I win, I get to do with you as I please.”

“You know there is no turning back after the first pillow is thrown, right?”

“As a demon, I've never cared when humans bred…”

“Stop unnecessarily stressing me out. You're shaving years off my life here.”

“I don't mind. If I am not allowed to nag, then I can simply beat these rules into you.”

“Is this how you all amuse yourselves? By sending photos of your exposed body parts?”

“Good grief. I need eyes everywhere to keep track of everyone.”

Extras! (It's hard to pick just 100 y'know?)

1. “Leading unhealthy lifestyles, frittering away your time and money… The extent to which you all squander your lives away is quite intolerable to watch.”

2. “Put two or more of you together, and you start getting ideas in your head. Bad ideas.”

3. “The next time one of you puts so much as a toe out of line… I'lI march you all up your beloved Mt. Imminent Death, and ensure that you NEVER return.”

4. “So as an extra bonus, I'll tickle you...”

5. “How nice that you're not letting our large underground gambling problem spoil your fun...”

In which Jade and Floyd drag (Y/n) to the Octavinelle dorm in the middle of the night. Why? Azul is suffering from an especially bad nightmare.

Upon waking up, the prefect is there to comfort him.

Request by @yourlovelyyves.

"Good evening, (Y/n)."

A velvety voice eased you out of your peaceful slumber, much to your utter dismay. The night had been silent and void of any disturbances prior. Without much effort, you swatted away at the hand that latched into your arm. The assailant remained persistent however, which drew an annoyed grumble from your lips.

"Hm... go back to sleep, Grim," you muttered under your breath. Even after you had rolled onto your other side, the fingers wouldn't cease poking your side.

A disgruntled sigh escaped your lips, you slowly forced your eyes to flutter open. Your eyelids were as heavy as lead and puffy with sleepiness. Yet, all that drowsiness vanished as soon as your eyes met a bright pair of heterochromatic ones.

"Peek-a-boo! It's me! Floyd." A large grin was etched onto his face.

By then, your eyes were as wide as saucers and threatened to fall out of their sockets. Miraculously, you managed to keep the beginnings of a scream in the back of your throat. Adrenaline rushed through your veins. How could it not? Two large shadows loomed over your bed, only the outlines of their sharp features lit by the moon light.

Unmistakably, these shadows were Floyd and Jade.

"Uh... what are you two doing here?" you asked and rubbed your eyes awkwardly. "It's like... 3 AM right now."

"It's a long story," Jade began. Without any regard for your comfort whatsoever, he deftly snatched the blanket off your body. "We shall explain on the way."

A shriek escaped your lips. Without wasting any time, your drowsy limbs tried to regain possession of your blanket. But, with his height and long arms, you failed miserably. His brother merely laughed at your feeble attempt and uncoordinated struggling. "Can't it wait until tomorrow?" you grumbled under your breath. The last weaves of warmth fled you by now. "I really need my sleep..."

Floyd clicked his tongue playfully. "I get it, shrimpies need their beauty sleep. We respect that, but we also kinda don't. And this is an emergency, anyway." Without allowing you to answer, he extended his hands and tried to grab you. "So c'mere, Shrimpy." A silly chuckle escaped his lips while he moved in on you.

"Let go of me!" you wailed when he wrapped his arms around you. Without breaking a sweat, he hauled you into the air and threw you over his shoulder. "I need my sleep!"

Floyd rolled his eyes at your antics. "I need my sleep, too. It's a win-win if you just come with us!"

In a split second, you were by the door of your bedroom. A panicked flash adorning your face, you screamed out, "Grim, help! Grim—" Outside, even the crows nestled in their trees perked up and escaped into the distance.

However, your cat friend merely rolled onto his other side. His paws greedily grabbed the blanket all for himself. "Go back to sleep, (Y/n)..." he mumbled and hid his ears beneath the thin pillow.

You clicked your tongue in disappointment. By then, the exhaustion was starting to settle in: all the screaming was draining your small energy reservoir incredibly quickly. "Great..." you grumbled under your breath. Once you had exited the Ramshackle dorm, your tired body went limp in defeat.

Jade simply sighed after a while. "It's because of Azul."

Jade chuckled but shook his head. "No, not really. He somehow is having a lot of nightmares lately. Sadly, his yelling impacts our ability to sleep, as well."

You perked up at his words, and your eyes lit up in worry. "You could have told me earlier instead of dragging me out of my bed without any explanation." Although you pursed your lips, you eventually decided to let it go. A soft sigh escaping your lips, you continued, "So, what's wrong with Azul? Don't tell me he fell asleep at his desk again..."

A yawn escaped his brother's lips. "I get all cranky if I don't get my sleep..." Floyd complained under his breath.

"And what am I supposed to do?"

"Well, we're bringing you with us because he always calls out to you during his nightmares," Jade explained after the three of you had passed through the mirror to arrive at the Octavinelle dorm. "Sometimes it's 'Floyd, don't eat me!' but mostly it's your name, prefect."

Floyd hummed along while you entered the dorm building. "So, we did the only reasonable and logical thing: drag you out of your bed and carry you all the way to our dorm," he chimed proudly. How he managed to procure the strength to carry you despite his tiredness, you would never understand. He dragged you up a winding pair of stairs until you three arrived in front of one particular door.

When you were finally set down again, you let out a satisfied breath. Your tired limbs regained a little bit of life as you stretched and popped your joints back into place. "I'm not sure if I can help him, but I'll try..." you said after a while. The twins eagerly opened the door for you and ushered you inside.

"Work your magic, Shrimpy!"

When light flooded the room, your eyes immediately fell on the figure in the grand bed — none other than Azul. He was thrashing and whimpering. The sight caused your heart to sink in worry. Your feet moved on their own, and you quickly found yourself by his bed side.

"Azul? Whats wrong?" you asked and put his hand on his shoulder.

Your voice seemed to have a soothing effect on him, but he nonetheless continued to roll around in discomfort. "Hm... Floyd, get away from me..." he cried out and hid his head beneath his pillow in what seemed like fear. "Don't eat me..."

You wanted to laugh, you really did — but doing so would have been insensitive. Whatever nightmare he was having, it must have been really bad. His entire body was shaking beneath the blanket.

"Azul? Come on, wake up..." you whispered and squeezed his shoulder softly. "It's me, (Y/n)."

That somehow did the trick. At once, he bolted up until his back was as straight as a candle. His eyes were ripped wide open, and his shoulders heaved up and down. "Please, Floyd, I'm just an innocent octopus! Stop nibbling at my tentacles!" he yelled and clutched his pillow tightly.

"Azul!" You grabbed his shoulders in an attempt to pull him back to reality.

His wide eyes returned to their normal size as soon as he noticed your presence. Much to your relief, his body stopped shaking. The fear on his face was now replaced by utter confusion. "Hm? Wait, what are you doing in my room, prefect?" the dorm leader asked awkwardly.

The corners of your lips quirked upwards into an amused smile. "Floyd and Jade brought me here because you were having reoccurring nightmares," you explained while rubbing soothing circles onto his back.

"Tsk, you missed all the good parts," Floyd exclaimed and began cackling. "Azul was fussing about you before he switched to bad-mouthing me. What did he blabber? Stuff like 'Oh, oh! (Y/n), I like you so much!' Right, Jade?"

"I don't seem to recall, brother dearest." An innocent grin graced Jade's lips.

You returned your attention to Azul, whose face was as red as a beet by now. His eyes never met yours. "Well, since you seem pretty fine..." you said between coughs, "I should return to my dorm."

"Thanks for checking up on me..." Azul muttered quietly. "It must have been a long way to the Octavinelle dorm."

Just as you were about to tell him how the twins had dragged you all the way to his room, you noticed their pressing glares. Your instincts told you that perhaps it was better to not tell him all the details. And you had to admit, the grateful smile on his lips somehow made your heart flutter.

"Yeah..." you said and rose to your feet. "No problem."

"Isn't Shrimpy the nicest?" Floyd asked and slung his arm around your shoulder. "Also, Azul! You got my taste buds all wrong. I'd prefer shrimp over octopus every day."

A shiver ran down your spine. "Stop it, before I get nightmares too..."

"You should lock your doors," Jade chirped. "His appetite can be insatiable at times."

You didn't think that Azul's cheeks could have turned even more red. But at this point, he was as red as Riddle's hair. And you swore he looked like he was about to explode. A long sigh escaped his lips, and he buried his face in his hands. The embarrassment he exuded was almost tangible.

"(Y/n), I must apologise for their bad humour and the inconvenience..."

[COMMISSION] LIVING WITH VAMPIRES: UNDER THE VEIL OF NIGHT | TWICE x Male Reader | CHAPTER : -PROLOGUE-

Welcome to another brand new TWICE fic series of mine! This story will serve both as an adaptation and a soft reboot of the TWICE horror-comedy book titled “Living With Vampires” written by SaiDaChae29 published in 2020 which was sadly left discontinued until now. For this one, it scrapped some of the parts from the original while others were kept and applied changes which will lead to its direct continuation. Special mention also to @nchris00 who ordered a commission and entrusted me to recreate this interesting story as his request. Hope this one won’t disappoint! Thank you so much again!

Now, let’s get this one started shall we? “LIVING WITH VAMPIRES: UNDER THE VEIL OF NIGHT” By knightyoomyoui Commissioned by: @nchris00 Part: PROLOGUE Word Count: 1,681

PRESENT TIME

I tucked the maknaes on their bedsheets after I delivered the rest of the girls into their bedroom except for Jihyo and Jeongyeon who are the most sober ones. Mina didn’t drink though since she’s allergic to alcohol, but she still passed out from exhaustion because of how fun we have went on this special day.

“Jeonghoon, are you sure this is on you now?” Jihyo asked me concerned, she was yawning already and it showed me more that my unnies are also tired now too.

“Yeah, I can handle this Jihyo noona. You can both go to sleep now.” I nodded as I looked around at our living room that is cluttered with empty beer cans, chips and plates.

“You sure? Well, don’t forget to rest after this okay?” Jihyo told me.

“Yes, noona.”

“As much as I would love to help Jeonghoon but I’ll leave this one to you now okay? I’ll get back from you tomorrow.” Jeongyeon turned to speak.

“No worries, noona.”

“Goodnight, Jeonghoon.”

“Goodnight noonas.”

They all went upstairs now and I heard them closing the door. I also released my own yawn but I’m not that much sleepy yet unlike them so I decided to volunteer cleaning the room. Also, I wanted to sleep on the couch for tonight anyways since it’s more cold and fresh here.

I started to drag the trash can and some extra garbage bag with me so that I can easily dump the mess we all created around here. I started with the cans, then I tied the used bags before replacing it with a new one then I went outside the dorm to take this out on the nearest garbage station in this building’s storey.

Going back to the dorm, I then proceeded on collecting the used plates, stacking them up and placed them on the sink. I’m the type of guy who hates seeing stacked plates on the sink and kinda not a fan of washing dishes so I immediately cleaned it off rather than letting it become an eyesore when the girls or me woke up tomorrow.

After putting them on the drying rack, I changed my outfit to my pajamas and slumped my body back on the couch. I breathe deeply to feel its softness while I blink rapidly as I stare on the wall, thinking of something to do before I go the sleep since I still don’t feel like resting yet.

Then something crossed my mind.

We just watched some vlogs that the girls recommended from their favorite YouTube channels, so I thought of an idea that what if I make my own vlog tonight.

Well, not exactly a vlog where I go record not only myself, but the people and the place around wherever I go that will require a much more editing process, I just felt like recording myself.

I was thinking of what should I say on the video, until another thing gave me an idea on what should I do with it.

I grabbed my phone that I’m confident enough of its camera’s quality, using it as I start to record myself. I set it up on our table and grabbed the mini-vase as its support before I prepare myself on the couch and press the record button.

As the timer starts rolling, I began to speak to the camera.

“Hi, Min Jeonghoon here. Right now its already 12:30 AM and it’s very late but I’m not sleepy yet so… I just wanted to do something interesting that will probably drain the remaining energy I have left in my body haha, and I thought of recording this video talking about…

how I met these nine ladies who turns out to be also… vampires.

I get it, saying it as if it is real would make me look like I’m crazy. Well, not like the others out there. Some would say I just tell a silly joke, but some might… be as crazy as me. Because this isn’t just a fiction. I’m just a type of guy who knows how right or wrong people are. And right now, believe me when I tell you that I’m sorry but… vampires do exist.

But before, I get to introduce them to you all, let me clarify some cliches and stuffs that turns out to be myths for people to believe in and pass it in every generations for others to learn. I want to educate others based from my own experience, with what I’ve learned about them during the entire 2 years of living with them.

First off, they are not immortals. They’re almost like us humans BUT like I said, almost because the little part of it that them still differs from us is that they age but way too slowly. I think its because of their DNA that works 10 times slowers that the normal one, so imagine that a vampire looks like 20 years old, well guess it already that its age might actually be in 200 years or something.

Oh and also, speaking of blood, they do have a very active cells of immune system, so it is true that their wounds or injuries heal a lot faster.

Next off, does vampires need blood to survive? Yes. That’s probably like the most common thing that we see in the movies right? Everyone also would even have it as their primary guess about what do they think about vampires, but at the same time they wanted to also confirm it if it does yet sadly they think it’s just a fantasy. But here I am now, telling you from what my own eyes have seen that they do indeed need blood.

Additional clarification, they drink animal blood though, not humans… even if its more healthy than animals. But they have to, because I’ve known these girls already that they cannot bear to kill a person because they are better than that. So, they found an alternative which is actually pig blood, mostly similar to humans which was proven by some scientists through what we call a “xenotransfusion”, some type of blood transfusion to humans.

What’s also interesting about them is that they do behave having it as their most crucial need. Just like humans, if us cannot standing drinking water or eating food for more than 3 days, well it’s the same thing that can be applied to them, only that the blood involves with it too. They starve and get thirsty much worse than humans, so I’m telling you that you really must be careful at the other vampires that you may encounter in the public that is suffering from this, because it won’t hesitate for a single second to kill you and help that vampire satisfy its needs.

Third one would be… hmm oh yeah, this is also quite commonly asked about vampires. Do they actually have fangs? Yes, and it ‘s retractable. It only extends when they’re about to feast something… or somebody. It grows definitely way sharper and longer than both humans and animals combined, but it’s almost unrecognizable unless you pay attention to it.

Well… I remember it happened on the first time seeing it on the first day I met them… yeah. Kinda scary, but I got trained to get used by it. It’s just that this one specific girl just loves to make fun of me with it.

Fourth of the most frequently asked questions would be about vampires hating the sunlight. Yup, they’re are not comfortable with it at all. Just imagine a skin getting poured by a muriatic acid, that’s how their sensitive skin react to the rays. However, they don’t die easily. I think it’s their eyes that are much sensitive than their skin, because their eyes are mostly made for darkness, explaining why they are also considered as creatures who prefer to remain in the dark.

About the eyes though, I debunk some rumors that their pupils enlarge and turns to be almost black whenever they feel anger, hunger or something like that. It remains the same, however… don’t stare at them for too long, you may not know… you’re already acting unusual under their command. You’re probably gonna be enchanted about their eyes because their irises tends to possess some various special colors like either red, sky blue, etc.

To quickly insert some other informations that needs to be corrected or be proven, vampires don’t turn like a bat just like Dracula and Mavis from Hotel Transylvania, they are stronger and faster than our physical abilities, they also don’t hate garlic -actually one of the girls loves it on her food- or can’t see their reflection in the mirror. My girls do make-ups and loves fashion a lot so… that’s why.

Lastly would be yes, they can turn a human into a vampire once they bit them. But the transformation process is slow and painful once they inject that some sort of a venom into some human’s blood which would alter the DNA. They gotta endure it because if i’m not mistaken, there’s no cure yet for these.

I also remember when one of my friends here said that half-vampires also exists. It is rare actually, because mostly vampires doesn’t get attracted or involve in some sort of a relationship with humans. One thing I know that they would differ from a full blooded vampires is that they can actually go free around outside without getting burned or they don’t need that much blood to survive.

Well, that’s enough information for today’s video. Now let’s move on to these nine girls that I’m talking about. The vampires that took me in, thought that they would become a danger after I learned about their true identity, and yet here I am, ending up as their so called little brother figure and… the second family I now treat in my life.

Nayeon. Jeongyeon. Momo. Sana. Jihyo. Mina. Dahyun. Chaeyoung. Tzuyu. That’s the names of my friends... my sisters... and the people I already consider as the second family I cherish the most, no matter who they actually are.

And this is how my story went with them…

A Qrow's nest Prologue 1

I wanted to make something without Jaune for once. I think that should be alright.

Cinder: *thinking while being "punished"* "The Madame is mad again. I don't understand, i did everything she asked of me. Why is she hurting me? What did i do wrong?"

The Madame: My daughter's told me you tried stealing food from the cuisine.

Cinder: *weakly* I didn't do it... I was on guest duty all day Ma- *get shocked* GHAAA!

The Madame: *snearing at Cinder* You dare imply that MY daughters are liars!?

The sisters: *giggling*

The Madame: *sigh* What will i do with you? You can't do anything correctly and you keep talking back. Maybe i should get rid of you?

Cinder: *panic in her eyes* Please! I-i'll be better! I'm sorry! I'll never steal again i promise!

The Madame: *rolling her eyes* Then go back to your duty and if i hear you did anything wrong again...

Cinder: *fear* Y-yes Madame!

The Madame: We got a guest that just arrived. A huntsman who smells of cheap alcohol. Do get him to his chamber as fast as possible so he doesn't ruin our precious image. You are also forbidden to eat until tomorrow, is that clear?

Cinder: Y-yes!

____

Qrow: *on his scroll* -yeah, i'm at the glass unicorn and- *feel a tug on his cloak* old on a sec. *Turn around to see a little girl* ... Are you lost kid?

Cinder: *shaking her head while whispering* Your room is ready...

Qrow: Wait, you work here? It's already 9pm, shouldn't you be sleeping?

Cinder: *tugging again* ... Your room is ready...

Qrow: *understanding something wrong is going on and playing along* Fine. Show me the way kid.

As Cinder and Qrow walked to the chamber, he couldn't help but notice how frail she was. The poor girl seemed malnourished. And that collar, he could see the burn mark all around her neck.

Cinder: *showing his room* Number 237. *Give him the key* I shall leave you for the night. *Begin to leave*

Qrow: *Taking a decision* Hey kid, can you bring food to this room? I heard the food was really good.

Cinder: *stomach growling but still ignored* I'll be back in a few short minutes.

Qrow: And since i don't know what to take, i'll trust you with the choice. *Seeing her panic* Don't worry, i'm not picky.

Cinder: *slowly acquiescing then leaving*

Qrow: ... Fuck, i think i might need to call James for that... But then again... *Smiling* what a little bit of bad luck could help getting her out of here?

10 minutes pass

Cinder: *knocking at the door* Mister? I brought you what you asked.

Qrow: *sitting on the bed* You can enter. I'm doing maintenance on my weapon so could you be a dear and put it on the table?

Cinder: ... *Slowly open the door with enough food for 3*

Qrow: *laughing* Kid, i wasn't that hungry! But thanks for the selection.

Cinder: *panicking* W-what? Oh, oh no, oh no no no! I'm so sorry mister! I wasn't sure what you'd like and-

Qrow: What about you take some? I don't mind. *Look at the most juicy steak he ever saw in his life* I'm not a beef guy, so you can take it.

Cinder: ... I can't.

Qrow: ? Why?

Cinder: The madame said i... I wasn't allowed to eat until tomorrow...

Qrow: *sigh* Kid, be frank with me. Does the owner hurt you?

Cinder: *almost crying but forcing a smile in her face like the madame asked of her* N-no! I'm happy to be an employee of the glass unicorn!

Qrow: ... *Put his weapon aside and approach Cinder* Kid *kneeling down to be at her level* You don't have to lie to me. I'm a huntsman, i'm the hero that save the day. I just need you to tell me; does she hurt you?

Cinder: *unable to keep her smile, she's now crying* I just want to be useful! She always punishes me! I can't take it anymore, i can't!

Qrow: *hugging her gently* It's okay kid, everything will be fine now.

Cinder: *continue crying*

???: What is the meaning of this!?

Qrow: *turning around to see the madame* I saw the burning mark on her neck and her lack of nutrition. I saw how bad you treated her!

The madame: *smirking* And what can you do? You have no power over me, huntsman. I have a lot of very powerful friends. And you! *Point at Cinder* I see i wasn't hard enough on you. I see now i should have used the whip inste-

Qrow: THAT'S ENOUGH! *Punch the Madame in the face, knocking her out* Fucking bitch! *Turn to cinder who's in shock, having difficulty breathing* Hey, hey! Look at me! *Kneel back at her* You are safe, ok? I won't let her touch a single hair of your head, ok? Take some deep breath, ok?

Cinder: *takes deeps breath, calming down a bit*

Qrow: That's it, you are alright. *Take his scroll out, calling someone* Come on you cunt...

Raven: *answering* Well well well, if it isn't my brother who-

Qrow: Raven, i need your help right now or next time you see me will be when you'll visit me in a cell.

Raven: *sigh* What did you do this time?

Qrow: *angry* I knocked out an Atlesian bitch who tortured a kid, now use your damn semblance before i change knocked out to volontary homicide.

Raven: Ok, chill! *Open portal* gee, and here i thought you were asking about Yang's birthday.

Qrow: *takes Cinder hand in his* I won't let you down kid, what's your name?

Cinder: C-cinder... Cinder Fall.

technical devotion, part fifteen: promises made

a/n: I think I'm gonna start aiming to get a chapter of this out every thursday roughly. I have everything planned out apart from how it's gonna end lmao, but rest assured, it shall be happy. I'm looking forward to you guys seeing what's in store! also, I did not realise how slow burn this would be lol, we're still a way off from first kiss territory, buuuuut... this chapter is one I've been waiting to write since the beginning ! hope you enjoy it (sorry for the long a/n)

warnings: injury & pain (not in any great detail) insecure echo :/

last chapter | next chapter | master list | join the taglist

In the weeks following Kan and Echo rekindling their friendship, Kan slowly began to get a grasp on her new role in the ranks, which was mainly because Echo was now there to support her. He was there to remind her not to let her worries overtake her, and a hand on her arm, or an encouraging smile, usually did the trick. Echo's presence calmed her in an instant, and the task of leading didn't seem as daunting with him around. Not that it was always so simple.

Kan stepped out of the command room, rubbing a hand over her face and sighing deeply. Echo was quick to notice as he exited behind her.

“Have you been sleeping?” He asked, stopping her in the corridor.

“I've been sleeping fine yeah, its just… My mind. My mind is tired” She admitted.

“What's wrong?” Echo frowned.

Kan exhaled a long breath, “I really don't know if I'm meant to lead people. It's really outside of my comfort zone even now, and it's just got my brain going into overdrive. I can't stop thinking about… What if something really bad happened under my watch? Or because of a decision I made? I don't think I could cope Echo”

Echo's expression softened the more Kan spoke, a silent admiration of her showing on his features. He placed his hands on her shoulders, something he noted that helped to ground her and gain her focus entirely.

“M'aira, you're doing a great job, and you'll continue to. Rex wouldn't choose you for this if he didn't think you could do it or handle it, and if it means anything to you, I believe in you too”

Kan let a shy smile lift the edges of her lips, “Thanks, it means a lot yeah”

Echo returned her smile, “Now, come with me, I have a small surprise for you”

“You do?” Kan looked up at him with slightly widened eyes.

“It's nothing special” He said as he took his hands away from her shoulders and began walking towards her office, “I just figured that since you seem to insist on sleeping in your office every night…”

Echo opened the door, showing his handiwork to Kan.

“…That having your bunk in here might be the way to go. That way I can stop worrying about you as well”

Kan grinned up at the clone, wrapping her arms around his waist and giving him a quick tight squeeze, “Thank you Echo, you're too kind to me”

Echo shook his head with a smile, resisting the urge to pull Kan back towards him, “Not really, if I was kind I would have tidied up in here too”

Kan looked around her office, still messy as ever. It seemed that Echo had just pushed the worst of the mess aside to make room for the bed.

“It's fine, I don't mind it like this anyway, the mess doesn't really bother me” She shrugged.

Echo huffed a small laugh, “I don't think I could cope if my office was this messy”

Kan hummed thoughtfully, her eyes darting across the mess.

“When do you leave for your mission?” Kan asked, looking back up into his honey eyes.

“We leave early tomorrow morning” Echo gave a sad smile.

“So I won't see you before you go?” Kan questioned, and Echo shook his head. Kan chewed on her bottom lip for a moment, “I wish I was going with you”

Echo could feel the words tugging at his heart, “I don't”

Kan gave him a stern look, her eyebrows drawn together.

He chuckled, “You can't get hurt if you don't go at all”

“You think I can't handle myself?” Kan asked, minorly offended but mostly confused.

“Oh I know you can, I‘m just happier knowing you're safe” Echo confessed, and he could feel his cheeks heating at the slightly vulnerable admission.

Kan just huffed, “Well it doesn't get much more safe than sitting around in the base all day”

“You'll get your chance to go into the field again, don't worry” He assured, a hand on her shoulder.

Kan smiled. Her eyes didn't meet his for a few seconds, but when they did he could tell there was a certain sadness laced within the gentle expression.

“Be safe, yeah?” She urged quietly.

Echo smiled softly, the edges of his eyes crinkling, “I will”

Without warning and much thought of her own, Kan wrapped her arms around Echo again, more tenderly this time. Echo could feel his heart beating out of his chest as he gently wrapped her in his own arms, resting his cheek on the top of her head.

In the past weeks, Kan had become more physically comfortable around Echo, and though he enjoyed it thoroughly, it was still always a little startling. Especially with a touch so gentle and tender as the hug she was currently giving him, it was hard to not be overwhelmed.

“Don't do anything stupid. Don't get yourself hurt” Kan spoke into his chest, and he was certain she could hear how furiously his heart was beating.

“I won't” He replied, hugging her tighter into his body to reassure her, “I promise”

Kan nodded along, listening intently as Rex detailed the upcoming mission. She was a little disappointed to not seem to be going on this mission, as they were going to be infiltrating the base that she had discovered through listening in on the Empire's long range comms. It was a dangerous job, they knew nothing about what this prison would be like once they were in, but that was the reason they were set on going. There were clones being imprisoned there, and they wanted to know why.

“Now, while all that is going on, me and Kan will be on a separate directive, looking to garner any information about this prison” Rex continued, and Kan's ears perked up, her posture straightening at the mention of her.

Rex hadn't discussed this with her before, but she was more than happy to do it, particularly with him.

“That's the plan as of now, but we'll have to wait until more men are back here to enact it” Rex moved away from the central holotable and crossed his arms, “I suggest getting some good rest tonight, they could be back at any time and I want to get this done as soon as possible”

Rex dismissed the clones, and Kan was immediately at his side.

“Rex, about the-”

“Sorry to spring that on you, I was hoping to speak with you earlier but your door was locked” Rex explained.

“Ah right, yeah, I was… tidying”

“Tidying?” Rex raised an eyebrow, a small smirk quirking his lips.

“Yeah, anyway, I wanted to ask you-”

Kan didn't get the chance to finish her question as the door to the command centre zipped open and her focus was drawn towards it. She did a double take, the sight she took in not registering in her mind at first.

It was Echo. He was back from his mission, but something was wrong. His form was alarmingly straight and rigid, his forearm resting against the door frame and holding him up. Each small movement sent a twitch to his face, his teeth clenched and eyes squeezed shut, nostrils flared.

Kan's heart leapt to her throat, and she rushed over to him.

“What happened?” She spoke hurriedly, paying no mind to the other clones around them who watched on.

Echo exhaled shakily, “Got… shot, in the back”

Kan tried so desperately to remain calm despite the sound of her heart pounding in her ears. She turned to look at Rex over her shoulder, hoping for some kind of support.

“We haven’t got a proper medic” He said, clearly shaken by his brother's condition.

That snapped Kan into gear, “I've got medical training, I've got it”

Kan took Echo's arm and threw it over her shoulder, pulling a pained groan from him. She quickly led him to her office, which was only just down the hall, and smacked the door panel in a frantic hurry. She set him down on the bed gently and instantly went about rooting around in the draws of her desk looking for her medkit. When she had found it, she looked up at Echo, who was trying to take off his armour, and failing as his wound cried out in pain.

“Stop, let me do it” Kan spoke instantly, standing in front of him and shooing his hands away.

Her fingers got working on the clasps, starting with his arms and working her way up, exactly as Echo did it.

“How do you know how to do this?” He asked, fighting through his pain.

“I've watched you do it enough times” Kan replied, a small shrug in her shoulders as she focused. Echo would've smirked but his chest plate dug into his wound as she took it off. “Sorry” She whispered.

“S'fine” Echo managed to hiss out as Kan climbed over the bed to sit behind him cross-legged. She tried to survey the damage, to see how bad it really was, but to no avail.

“Could you take this off?” Kan asked, her fingers playing with the hem of his blacks.

If it was possible, Echo’s body seized up even more. He nervously fidgeted his own fingers along the hem, letting out an exasperated huff. His blaster wound was sending small shocks through his body with every movement, but he was single-mindedly focused on not letting Kan take off his top.

Kan noted his discomfort immediately, and let out a sigh.

“Echo” She spoke so gently from behind him, resting a hand on his shoulder, “It's okay, please let me help you”

Echo relented with a slump of his shoulders, “Okay”

Kan helped to peel off the tight base layer, several pained noises escaping the man she was helping. As she saw the wound, she couldn't help but suck a sharp breath between her teeth. Three blaster bolts scorched into his lower back, creating a cluster of open wounds.

Echo assumed her reaction was to seeing the cybernetic attachments he had in his back. His breath was shaky as he tried to calm himself, but it only became more unstable as Kan traced around the outside of his wound.

“I told you to be safe Echo” She whispered, “You promised not to get hurt”

She sounded so solemn, and Echo couldn't find it in himself to say anything. Thankfully, she then got to work on the wound, but it wasn't without discomfort. She first administered a pain relief injection, and his breath caught in his throat as she cupped the side of his neck to do so. She warned him every time she was going to touch him, the antiseptic wipe against his wound making him flinch and grunt more than he wished, stinging even with the pain relief. She placed a bacta patch over the area when she had cleaned it appropriately, and it stung for just a second before the bacta started working it's magic.

“Does that feel better?” She asked quietly, and Echo just nodded

Kan ran her fingers along the edge of the metal apparatus that climbed up his back, causing Echo to shudder under her touch. The feeling of it was so intimate, yet so tainted by sadness and clouded by self-concious thoughts that Echo couldn't focus on the warmth of Kan's fingers against his bare back.

“You're lucky, they almost hit your spine” She spoke, sounding resoundingly serious.

Echo could only hang his head. He felt so ashamed. He had worked hard to get past this mindset, but with the woman he desired like no other sitting behind him and inspecting the damage done to his body, he couldn't help it.

Kan could understand a little of what Echo was thinking, she just hoped she was wrong. She slid from behind him and knelt in front of him on the floor, but he wouldn't look at her.

“Echo” She said as gently as she could, placing a hand on his knee, “I'm glad you're okay”

Echo looked up to her, and the emotions she saw swimming in his eyes were almost enough to bring her to tears.

“What can I say to make you feel better?” She asked in a whisper, for fear that speaking louder would cause him to break.

“There's nothing to say” He said firmly, looking down to his lap.

Kan couldn't help but reach out. She placed a hand on his face, lightly rubbing her thumb along his cheekbone.

“Please talk to me” She pleaded.

After a moment of painful silence, Echo sighed, “I don't show people my cybernetics for a reason”

“Echo it's okay-”

“But it's not” He frowned, his eyes snapping to Kan’s once more. “It's not okay. The attachments, they- they're not exactly desirable, and no one wants someone with all… this. I-” He puffed out a sad breath, the next admission feeling daunting, “It makes me feel like I'm half a man”

Kan's heart broke.

“That's not true” She said sternly, both hands now on his cheeks, forcing him to pay attention to her words, “You're every bit of a man as any other, and even more than that, you're a good man Echo. Anyone would be lucky to have you”

“Anyone?” Echo asked, a hopeful look in his eyes.

Kan wasn't really sure what he was asking. Was he asking because he just wanted confirmation that she was telling the truth? Or was it something more? She weighed her options of what to say, biting into her bottom lip with her eyebrows pinched. She couldn't just admit to her affections for him right now if that wasn't what he was after.

Instead, she took her hands away from his face, sitting back of her heels with a shy look on her face, “Yes, anyone”

Kan stood up and grabbed the medkit, taking it back over to the desk and placing it in the draw.

“You stay here tonight, I'll take your bunk” She said, turning around to meet Echo's intense gaze once more.

“No, I'm fine, I'll-” He was interrupted by his own sharp intake of breath as he tried to stand.

Kan smiled at him knowingly and walked over, placing her hands on his shoulder to keep him rooted to the bed.

“Please, stay here” She insisted.

She found herself lost in Echo's eyes. So many emotions were flitting through them and she couldn't keep track. She absent-mindedly began rubbing her thumb along his bare collarbone, before she realised what she was doing and pulled away.

“I'll see you tomorrow” She nodded to him, leaving quickly and shutting the door behind her.

Echo let out a breath that he didn't realise he was holding and laid back on the bed. His mind was full to the brim with every thought he’d had about Kan since meeting her.

Her distinct scent enveloped him as he crawled into her bunk. He inhaled deeply, letting it take him over and overpower him, washing away his troubled thoughts, and eventually letting it lull him into a peaceful sleep.

[BSTS] Main Story S6CH1 'Our Hands Can't Reach Tomorrow' - Part 3

Part 2 - Final

Common Chapter 3

-starless hallway-

-zakuro standing close-

saki: (Uu… How did this happen…?)

zakuro: Averting your eyes and not giving a response is quite rude. Please answer my question. But before that, a word of advice. You should be more careful, your defences are too lax.

saki: I’m sorry, I was caught off guard…

zakuro: Either way I shall not let this chance slip me by. My apologies but I shall be taking advantage of it. Have you remembered anything yet? My little bird of destiny.

-flashback, rehearsal room-

saki: …What do you want from me?

zakuro: As I said, all I want is your memories. The memories sleeping deep within you that were wrapped up in a black cloth and forgotten.

-present, starless hallway-

zakuro: I cannot rely on anyone else but you regarding this matter. Please answer me, for the sake of this pitiful jester.

saki: So you're saying that it's something that I should know? The owner said something similar to me…

zakuro: Oh my oh my, now that is a name that I was not expecting to hear. And whatever was it that the Boss asked of you? It couldn't have been about the black cards, could it?

saki: Yes, it was. He said that I must have one and that I know how to access what’s on them.

Except, I have no idea what any of that means… From what you're saying though, I should know, right? Why do you want to know what it is that I’ve forgotten, Zakuro-san?

zakuro: Oop, and now I’m the one being questioned. However I cannot provide a response if you do not remember.

If you wish for something then you must also give something in return. A fair trade is most important when it comes to both information and compensation.

-qu appears-

qu: Hey, Zakuro. What are you doing blocking the hallway?

zakuro: What's this, what's this? My dear teammate has decided to make an appearance. And if it isn't Team P’s problem child as well.

menou: Problem child? Are you referring to me? I’m not so sure about that. I’d be a saint in comparison to you.

Though, I am curious what you two were talking about just now. A singer is necessary to perform on Starless’ stage, so if I were to give you something in return, would you continue to sing for me forever?

zakuro: Please forgive me. I already have my hands full pleasing our madman of a leader. I don't need another one giving me orders.

menou: Huh~? Working for me would be so much easier compared to Mokuren though. Well whatever, I already have Maica, Sinju and Rindou on Team P to sing for me. Rindou seems like he’s still holding himself back. I want him to cut the breaks already.

zakuro: Woah now, as expected of you Menou. What an insane statement to make.

qu: Give it a rest and back away from her already, Zakuro. You're being way too persistent.

zakuro: Oh my, excuse me. The little birdie here is so used to my closeness that she hadn't pushed me away.

-he steps even closer to saki-

zakuro: Please remember what it is that I desire from you. I beg of you, remember for both of our sakes.

–end

SideA Chapter 4

-locker room-

ran: Heya Sinju, how is Team P doin’? Gettin’ worked to the bone?

sinju: I wouldn't say that. We're just diligently training and rehearsing. Wait, are you trying to pick on me, Ran?

ran: Ahaha oops, you saw right through me~ Ya I was just teasin’ ya.

Don't ya think P is like a sports drama straight outta the showa era right now? I’ve always thought that the sports and idol genres would go together well!

sinju: I’m not exactly sure what you're trying to say, but I’m glad you seem to be having fun… I think?

ran: What's gonna happen to P from here on out? We were talkin’ about it the other day. Are ya gonna change your direction from bein’ sparkly idols?

Oh and also, is Rindou ok? He’s still always wearin’ a smile, but it's like his resolve has changed.

sinju: His resolve–

-flashback, rehearsal room-

rindou: I want to create a new Team P.

-present, locker room-

ran: He’s got that ‘come any closer and I’ll cut you down!’ vibe to him. It's so cool, like the samurai Tange Sazen!

sinju: I’m seriously not following this conversation at all. But Rindou is fine. I’m the one who's at fault, I still don't know what it is that I want to do. I don't know what direction Rindou is planning to take with Team P.

ran: What? Ya seriously think that he seems ok? Y’know, before I came to Starless, I saw all sorts of broken people on the daily. And surprisingly, it's the ones that were closest to ‘em that understood them the least.

Shouldn't you be treatin’ this a little more carefully? The same thing happened once before, right? Ya told me yourself, about that time Nekome did some kinda therapy thing.

sinju: You remembered that, Ran?

ran: Of course I’d remember! It was such a weird story. What was it again…

Rindou hadn't been able to perform, so Nekome put a set of headphones or somethin’ on him? Rindou went all uwaahh! and collapsed, but despite that he took to the stage the next day like nothin’ had happened.

Maybe ya should try give him that therapy again? Though I don't really understand the details.

sinju: Don't say that like it's so simple. There's no way I could tell Rindou to do that again.

sinju: …….

–end

SideA Chapter 5

-starless hallway-

qu: Are you on floor shift today, Yoshino?

yoshino: Yeah. I suppose you are too. Is something the matter?

qu: Team P don't have an understudy, so I was wondering if I should offer to lend them some support.

yoshino: Ah… Is this about Rindou? I understand why you’d be concerned but… It's a difficult situation.

The current Team P is different from the one that we used to be members of. They all have their own challenges that they need to overcome themselves.

So I’m not sure how much help we’d be, since we only know about how P used to be.

qu: I know that, but still.

yoshino: Qu, a lot of time has passed since we transferred from Team P. I get that seeing Rindou like this is reminiscent of how he was when P was first created. But the current Team P has their own way of doing things, if we try to intervene we’d just be a disruption.

qu: You think so?

-sinju appears further down the hall-

yoshino: It's not like anyone from P has directly asked you for help, right?

sinju: What's this? What are we talking about?

yoshino: Woah, Sinju! That surprised me.

sinju: Were you talking about Team P? …Was it something I shouldn't have overheard?

yoshino: You mean something we want to keep a secret from you? That may be true.

sinju: Huh? Seriously? I’m so curious~ But I can't ask!

yoshino: It's a secret but I can let you in on it if you want.

qu: Yoshino.

yoshino: We were just talking about how Team P are really giving it their all. Weren't we, Qu?

sinju: Really? Aw, thanks! I’ve been worried about whether or not I’ve been doing well, so I’m happy to hear it.

yoshino: So are things going well on P? You seem to be trialing a lot of different things.

sinju: Yeah, we’ve been doing things a little differently compared to before. As to whether or not it's going well I’d say��

sinju: ……. (frowns)

qu: Is it like that time at the previous Starless?

sinju: Ah, you might be right. Did somebody say that to you?

qu: No, it's just the feeling that I got. A lot happened back then, so I might just be overthinking it. Sorry, Sinju.

sinju: No, don't worry about it. I’m sorry too. I was wondering if I should discuss it with Nekome.

yoshino: Why Nekome? Oh right, of the current P members, only Nekome was also a standard member back then. But, this is Nekome we're talking about here. I wouldn't expect too much from him.

sinju: Yoshino.

yoshino: If you need to talk we’re willing to hear you out too. Right, Qu?

qu: Of course. The offer is always on the table, Sinju. We were all founding members of P after all.

sinju: Yoshino, Qu… Thank you. If I need anything I’ll let you know.

yoshino: He may not be very reliable but I think you should still discuss it with Nekome too.

sinju: Ahaha, yeah. I’ll try talking with him.

–end

SideB Chapter 4

-locker room-

nekome: Rindou, you took your time getting here today~ I thought you’d arrive earlier.

rindou: That's because I had to stop by the government office first. I still got here on time though.

nekome: Yeah, the others should be arriving soon too, but before that I wanted to talk to you, so I’ve been waiting.

rindou: Sure, we can talk after rehearsal.

nekome: Could we talk now instead? It won't take long.

rindou: …Ok. What is it?

nekome: Say, Rindou. You're taking to the stage at the moment, but is it really sustainable? This has happened in the past, remember, that period of time when you couldn't bring yourself to perform.

rindou: I was wondering what you were going to say… I’m standing on the stage just fine though. This is different from back then.

nekome: But still, it feels as though you're pushing yourself. So wouldn't it be better to look after yourself with some treatment?

rindou: Treatment?

nekome: You don't remember? That treatment that I gave you back at the previous Starless.

rindou: Oh… That thing you called ‘simple therapy’...

nekome: Yeah. And it really was simple, wasn't it?

rindou: I think it was. To be honest I don't really remember the details. I’d rather not remember that period of time. I was in total disarray. So, I am at least somewhat grateful to you.

In the end it was thanks to whatever you gave me that I was able to stand on the stage comfortably again. However, this time I will have to refuse.

nekome: Are you sure?

rindou: I think that this is something that I need to overcome on my own. Thank you for your concern though. Also, if you can up the quality of your performance for me then I won't have any complaints.

nekome: So harsh!

rindou: Is that all then? Rehearsals will be starting soon, we need to get changed.

nekome: Got it. Just one last thing. Would you happen to have a black coloured card in your possession? A black card with nothing written on it.

rindou: Why do you know about that, Nekome…?

nekome: As long as you have it it's fine. I just wanted to make sure. With that I’m gonna go get changed~

-nekome leaves-

rindou: That black coloured card… If I remember correctly it was back when Starless caught on fire that I found it in my locker. Nekome was also found caught up in that fire the day he returned…

–end

SideB Chapter 5

-break room-

kasumi: What's this? Heath and Taiga? Now that's an unusual pair~

heath: We were talking about Team P’s show and how it's pretty amazing they've still been making adjustments to the show since it opened.

kasumi: Ah~ Yeah it does seem that way. Their whole team is made up of diligent members after all.

heath: Huh? But Nekome is with them, so it's not the whole team.

taiga: That's true.

kasumi: Well I’m sure Nekome can be diligent sometimes too~ …Probably.

heath: Seriously? Then compared to Hari, who would be more diligent?

kasumi: Hari of course. That's an unfair comparison no matter who the opponent is.

taiga: He took some kind of exam recently, didn't he? That fact alone makes him crazy diligent.

heath: I hate exams.

taiga: Agreed~ I don't see the point in taking one willingly.

kasumi: Some professions require you to take exams in order to gain the needed qualifications.

heath: Hm? Qualifications, huh~

taiga: He sure is amazing.

kasumi: You two could try to act at least a little interested. Passing the bar examination is pretty impressive.

taiga: Do you have any qualifications yourself? You seem like you’d have some unexpected skills. No wait, lemme try and guess. Uhh, what about a qualified cleaner?

kasumi: I suppose there are certification tests for things like building cleaning. I’ve never taken one before though.

heath: Do you have qualifications in managing people?

kasumi: Like human resources and general affairs? Oh, or a licensed social insurance consultant? Nope, I don't have any qualifications like that~

taiga: Huh, I thought you'd have at least something.

heath: I guess Kasumi is normal after all.

kasumi: I have my drivers license though. I even have a large vehicle license.

heath: Oh, that's pretty cool. That means you can drive trucks and things right?

taiga: That's awesome! Can you operate a forklift too?

kasumi: Yep, I have a forklift license too. They're essential for moving heavy objects.

heath: Do you use them at work?

kasumi: I haven't used one since coming to Starless. I’m basically only a license holder on paper. If I were to return to a job that uses one I’d have to take a short course beforehand to remember everything~

taiga: With the existence of short courses and exams this world really is a tough one.

kasumi: Ahaha, that's society for you.

Common Chapter 4

-starless office-

unei: Nekome-san, should you really be here right before your show starts?

nekome: I heard Saki-chan was here so I wanted to greet her before the show. we’ll be heading right back don't worry.

saki: Thank you. But you didn't have to greet me, you should go and get ready for your show!

nekome: Aw come on, don't brush me off so easily~ I just wanted to have my heart warmed up before I stepped onto that awfully cold stage.

maica: Hmm, is that really the case? Then how about I set a fire to warm you up then?

rindou: While it is true that Saki-san is a special guest, I feel as though the way you dote on her has ulterior motives, Nekome.

nekome: N-no~~? It's not that way at all, I’m just, y’know?

unei: How come you suddenly can't speak properly?

rindou: My apologies, Saki-san. Nekome, you can't be bothering her like that. Keep it in moderation.

Maica, I’m going to go ahead and check the stage equipment before we start. I’ll leave him to you.

maica: Ah, sure. Go ahead.

-rindou leaves-

nekome: Hm? Is Maica going to scold me next then?

maica: (sigh) I’m not going to scold you, you're an adult too after all.

nekome: I kinda can't stand this tension anymore…

maica: You're the one who brought it on yourself, so you have to deal with the consequences. But still, quit half heartedly poking fun at things. Rindou won't play along, his responses have been really cold and it’ll only make the mood even more stifling.

nekome: So it's ok if I poke fun wholeheartedly then?

maica: If you want to get punched, sure.

nekome: Ah. No thanks.

saki: Um, what are you talking about?

maica: Hm? Oh, it's nothing. It's P’s problem to deal with. Rindou’s just been fully absorbed in the stage, that's all. To the extent that he's been discussing things with the team less…

nekome: Or to put it frankly he hasn't been talking to us any more than he needs to. He doesn't talk about anything other than the stage. Though he is still friendly about it.

unei: Aren't Team C and K the same way? B is the only team where I get the impression that they're a big group of friends.

nekome: That may be true but he could crack a joke every now and then. The moment he opens his mouth it's just stage this, show that. It gets dull, y’know?

maica: And that's why you keep cracking jokes only for Rindou to ignore them and make the mood freeze over even more?

nekome: I was only trying to warm things up.

maica: Well it didn't work.

unei: Being ignored by Rindou-san sounds like it'd be terrifying. If I got brushed off whilst he was still wearing a smile I think I’d be sad. The reviews for your show have been really good though. They're praising that it's a heart wrenching tragedy.

maica: A heart wrenching tragedy? Where on earth is that interpretation coming from?

nekome: Since Rindou is concentrating on the show the quality of his performance is scarily high. I’m worried as to whether or not he can keep going like this.

saki: (I wonder if Rindou-san is ok…)

–end

SideA Chapter 6

-park, day-

nekome: Sorry for the wait, Sinju~ What is it that you wanted to talk about? I’m a little nervous since you said we couldn't talk at Starless.

sinju: Nekome. Do you remember how I used to always try and avoid you? Back at the old Starless building.

nekome: Ahh, yeah I remember that. It was like you suddenly couldn't stand being around me anymore. We spoke about how it was just a misunderstanding though didn't we?

sinju: Yeah, but I didn't tell you the reason for why I acted that way.

nekome: That's cause you didn't look like you wanted to elaborate. I don't mind either way, things are fine between us now after all. Unless you want to explain?

sinju: Yeah, I do. You see, I saw what you did. Back then when Rindou was struggling to stand on the stage.

nekome: (surprised)

-flashback, old starless back rooms-

sinju: (That was a close one, I’m so glad I found my house key here in the store. That could’ve been real bad if I’d dropped it on the street somewhere… Hm? Is someone else here?)

-sinju peeks into the storage room-

nekome: Well, I guess you could say it’s a simple type of therapy?

rindou: Sorry Nekome, I’ve even made you concerned about me…

nekome: No worries, to make sure Team P’s on the right track, you’re necessary no matter what, Rindou.

nekome: (on computer or something) Ok, the card’s all set up, how about you?

rindou: I’m fine.

sinju: (Nekome and… Rindou? I wonder what they’re doing… he said something about therapy.)

nekome: Here we go, put these headphones on now.

rindou: Ok.

nekome: Okay, concentrate real hard on the sound that’s gonna come from the headphones, I’ll start it now.

sinju: (I wonder what they could be talking about, a new show maybe? I wish I could listen in too but I’m just the understudy…)

-rindou jolts in pain-

rindou: Guh— graaahhhh!

sinju: !?

nekome: …Hm?

sinju: (What was that? What, what happened? Nekome noticed me, shit, I need to run…!)

-present, park, day-

nekome: Huh, so that had been you, Sinju. I thought I’d just imagined hearing someone.

sinju: …….

nekome: So after seeing that you were afraid of me.

sinju: After you did that, Rindou stopped being so unstable and settled down. But on the flipside, I was the one who got scared and Rindou staggered our shifts because of it.

nekome: I just thought you wanted to avoid interacting with me. A lot was going on back then so I didn't really have time to let it concern me.

sinju: Not long after that, you disappeared.

nekome: Yeah. I’m sorry about that too.

sinju: Nekome. About that therapy, do you think you could do it once more?

nekome: Are you seriously suggesting that?

sinju: If Rindou needs it then…

nekome: I can't do it right now. Certain conditions need to be met and I don't have all the necessary equipment. Not to mention– I’ve already talked to Rindou about it and he said that he didn't need it.

sinju: If Rindou said that he's fine, then he must be, right?

nekome: Yeah, he's fine. He’s different from how he was back then, it was a long time ago after all.

sinju: Yeah. I’m sure he'll be fine. As long as we perform the show as best as we can, we'll be fine.

nekome: Yep, our show just keeps getting better and better. Let's keep doing our best until the closing show.

sinju: Thank you for hearing me out.

nekome: So… Does that therapy not freak you out anymore?

sinju: You just said it yourself, things are different compared to back then, it was a long time ago. I was scared at the time, that's true but…

I can remember it now, the fact that not being able to stand on the stage is what was causing Rindou to suffer the most. So, that's why I think that what you did back then was necessary to help Rindou.

–end

SideB Chapter 6

-starless back rooms-

rindou: Taiga? What are you doing back here?

taiga: What, you ask? I’m just hanging out with laptop-chan. Sometimes we like to play here.

rindou: Hm, is that so?

taiga: Yeah, you don't look the least bit interested. Oh well, everyone has their own preferences. To be honest I’m running from Unei-kun. He’d catch me if I stayed in the office.

That guy keeps casually asking me to format SD cards but then after I finish doing so he’s suddenly like ‘wait no I need that data!’. Ah~ It's so scary, I can't believe it sometimes. Those who can't handle technology are so difficult.

I’m the most knowledgeable when it comes to machines here at Starless though so it's no wonder everybody has to rely on me~

rindou: …That's true actually.

taiga: Uwah, I said too much. Was I acting like an otaku? I totally was.

rindou: Say, Taiga. Could you lend me your abilities as well?

taiga: Huh? You have a favour to ask of me? Now that's a rare event.

rindou: I’d like for you to keep this a secret from Nekome, but could you analyse this card for me?

-rindou hands taiga his black card-

taiga: Huh, this card is completely black. What is it?

rindou: I don't know. It randomly appeared in my locker one day… I previously had Maica try to look into it but in the end nothing came of it. I’m still curious as to what it is though, so.

taiga: Hmm? This is surprising. And how come I need to keep it a secret from Nekome?

rindou: I’m not entirely sure myself. Nekome might not have anything to do with it, but I’d like to keep it a secret from him just in case.

taiga: Hmmm. Sure, I’ll give it a shot. It's not like Nekome and I talk much to begin with, so it's not like I need to report it to him. Is it ok if I borrow this card?

rindou: Yes, I don't mind. All I was doing with it was holding onto it. But make sure you don't lose it, if you can't find out anything about it please return it to me.

-flashback, haseyama’s hospital room-

suspicious man: It's not here…? You haven't hidden it have you?

doctor: Of course not, I’m telling the truth…! I checked his clothes, his bag, everything! There wasn't a black coloured card anywhere.

suspicious man: Shit. Just when I thought I was finally gonna be able to obtain a black card…

-present, starless back rooms-

taiga: Of course. I’ll be taking it off your hands for a few days then~ Just give me some time until the closing performance of your show.

rindou: Ok. I’ll be counting on you.

taiga: Do your best on the stage.

rindou: Of course. I will not compromise.

-rindou leaves-

taiga: Uegh, is it just me or did it suddenly get chilly in here? Rindou seems so on edge lately.

-takami appears-

takami: So this is where you were, Taiga. Running away again are you?

taiga: Running? Oh, you mean from Unei-kun? Yeah, I did. Just how many SD cards does that man have? Confirming what's on them, or telling me to format them whilst checking the data. Just where is he even getting these tasks from?

takami: The owner, I suppose.

taiga: Ah, there's no way he could refuse him then. However, I am refusing. I’m not doing it.

takami: Taiga, that card you have…

taiga: Ah, crap, I forgot to put it away. Oh well, you're not my brother. Rindou gave it to me, he wants me to analyse it for him.

takami: Rindou gave it to you?

taiga: He told me to keep it a secret from Nekome. So you should do the same. Anyways, I should go and get ready for my shift.

takami: A-ah, yeah sure.

-taiga leaves-

takami: A black card… Why would Rindou have one?

Common Chapter 5

-outside starless, day-

-screen shakes-

saki: (What was that? Perhaps I’m not feeling too good…)

saki: Maybe I was just imagining things…

-starless lobby-

sinju: Oh, welcome, Saki-chan. I’m glad I was able to greet you, I’m happy to see you!

saki: Hello, Sinju-san.

sinju: You look pale, are you ok? You should rest backstage for now. Aogiri, could you give me a hand? Saki-chan doesn't seem to be feeling well.

aogiri: Of course, I can assist.

-flashback, hallway-

aogiri: I knew that the chances of you remembering would be very low but— It would be helpful if you remembered. Don't worry, I’ll assist you.

-present, starless lobby-

saki: (Huh…? I think I really am feeling under the weather…)

aogiri: It's ok, there's no need to push yourself. I’ll escort you backstage. Let's go so the other customers don't notice.

-flashback, restaurant area-

aogiri: Speaking of, I was going to go and check what's happening behind the scenes. Would you like to come with me? Here, follow me quietly so the other customers don't notice.

-present, starless lobby-

-kokuyou quickly steps in front of aogiri-

kokuyou: Are you feeling dizzy? Does your head hurt? Or are you not even sure yourself…

gui: Kokuyou, Aogiri. I will take her.

aogiri: I’ll head backstage before you then, I’m about to be on break.

-aogiri leaves-

kongou: I’ll prepare you something hot to drink. I’ll leave the rest to you, Gui, Kokuyou.

-kongou leaves-

sinju: Kokuyou, I’ll also–

kokuyou: You have a show to perform, don't you? Don't forget.

sinju: Saki-chan…

saki: I’m ok. Do your best in the show, Sinju-san.

sinju: Ok, thank you. Don't overdo it either.

-sinju leaves-

gui: Let's go, Kokuyou.

kokuyou: I’ll join you later, you take Saki.

-black screen-

saki: (I feel so dizzy– It’s not going away…)

-time pass, starless office-

kongou: Ah, you're awake. How are you feeling?

gui: I think she's ok. I can tell by her scent.

saki: Yes, I’m feeling better. Sorry for worrying you all…

aogiri: Here is the hot lemonade Kongou made for you, would you like to drink it?

saki: (flinches) Ah, um… Yes, thank you.

kokuyou: Here I’ll pass it to her. Take it, Saki.

aogiri: It appears I surprised you, my apologies, Saki-san. Sorry for bothering you too, Kokuyou.

kokuyou: I don't care, but the hall is probably understaffed right now. You should return Aogiri. You too, Gui.

aogiri: Understood.

gui: I’m staying here.

kokuyou: Tch. Fine.

aogiri: I’ll be taking my leave then. Take care, Saki-san.

-aogiri leaves-

gui: Saki, Aogiri made you flinch.

kokuyou: Did that guy do something to you?

saki: No, at least I don't think so…

-flashback, hallway-

aogiri: It would be helpful if you remembered. Don't worry, I’ll assist you.

-present, starless office-

saki: I don't really remember.

kokuyou: Is that so? Well for now just make sure you rest up.

saki: (I feel as though I’ve forgotten something…)

gui: P’s show has ended. I can hear the sound of applause.

kokuyou: Sounds like another great success. How praiseworthy.

Note

note: i thought your idea was so cool and wanted to write for it. it’s the way i said i’m writing this and not my papers due tomorrow. it's also not finished hence why it doesn't include all the plot points and i don't think i'll continue it cause it sucks but wanted you at least read it. i also noticed that you said the titan not the teen titan and that who I based this off of and then reread your plot again and realized (another reason why i feel like not continuing it) gosh this is mess but enjoy!

“tell me, are they going to be okay?

the question is from starfire who carries a concerned look on her face while everyone else’s eyes are still glued to the tv screen.

“don’t worry star, course they will. it’s just a movie after all, none of it is real.” dick’s attempt to comfort kori comes from a place of trying to remind her that movies are in fact not documented disasters but purely made for entertainment purposes.

“no.” beastboy blurts out out of no where, but is lucky that starfire is too focused to hear what he says.

both you and raven shoot him a look from your places on the couch, one that clearly reads ‘don’t you dare say anything that’ll even come close to spoiling anything again.’

“i mean no it’s not. the titanic was an actual thing that happened. it is real right?” he turns to you who’s plotted on the ground with him to defend his case.

you only shushes him with a hand gesture and signal to keep watching.

“—i see now. i believe i understand. titanic. titans. surely, a collective of superhero’s like us shall show up and rescue all in the ship.” star looks proud with her predictions.

everyone freezes.

you eye dick who’s next to you and his eyes are wide and saying ‘maybe showing her this movie wasn’t the best of ideas.”

you’re amazing with this eye reading thing.

you glance at raven. she shrugs.

“we’ll just have to se—.”

your voice is interrupted by what sounds like footsteps trotting up the stair. everyone looks back to the unthreatening intruder to only then look back when he’s identified.

he’s invisible.

he makes no effort to glance at anyone. you make no effort to look away from him.

…

the sticker of [blank] on jason’s room stares back at you. technically speaking it’s the spare room that stays vacant which he only uses whenever he’s around.

which is not often.

before you can raise a hand to knock, the door flings open and you’re met with an unexpected glare from jason.

“hi.”

“hey.” he looks out into the hall and back at you. “wasn’t expecting you.”

“sure you weren’t.” you poke your tongue out.

“of course I wasn’t.”

“says the person swinging open doors.” he needs to be reminded.

“to the person snooping around floors they have no business being on.” you need to remember.

you narrow your eyes at him, and smile starts to play on your lips. the one he’s been holding back since you came hasn’t gone unnoticed by you either.

“okay jason. i’m here for you because i miss you so much and maybe, just maybe, i want a hug, 4 kisses and 7 different responds to my question of ‘how are you doing?’”

jason’s can’t help but laugh at your admission. “yeah?”

“are you making fun of me?” you pout.

“i wouldn’t dream of it. c’ mere.”

grumpy and moody is what he is in others presence but for you he’ll show you any side. as he pulls you into a warm hug, you can’t help but feel a sense of victory. it might be your playful way of breaking down his walls, but you know that deep down, he appreciates your effort to bring a bit of lightheartedness into his world.

to you he’s never invisible.

you nuzzle your head into his chest as he wraps his arms around you.

“you took forever.”

“i know.”

…

jason’s room lacks curtains, a detail most evident in times like these when the sunlight infiltrates in and rouses you from your sleep.

you’d offered getting him a pair from the storage a couple of times, but his response was always the same: he wouldn’t be around for too long.

so you don’t need to turn around to know he’s gone.

...

U g hhhh!!! STOP they little cuties

-------------------------------------------------------------

The two of you laid in his bed for a while longer, your head on his chest and his arms wrapped around your waste.

"I wish you'd stay longer," you say quietly. A wish, a hope, a desire you crave every day. You couldn't help but lean closer into his body as you whisper that, wanting to hold him tighter, closer, as if he would permanently fall off the face of the earth if you'd let go.

"I know, mama," He replies sadly. He mirrors your movements, arms holding you close. Holding on, rewinding the fantasy he's been playing in his head. The fantasy that he could just take you away with him. Settle down in someplace far from Gotham. Far from any worries. But that's all it was. A fantasy. A fantasy he couldn't make come true, and you couldn't either.

"We're going to be okay?" You ask. It was meant to come out as a statement. But though you gave so much faith in your relationship, you couldn't help but question how long you can hold on.

"We're going to be okay," Jason states. Neither of you make a promise. Neither if you can guarantee that you'll be okay. But for now, you cherish the moment. With tight hugs, lingering kisses, and fading fantasies.

Your hand trails down to his. Your thumb caresses his calloused skin. Reminding him he's not invisible. Not to you. Never to you.

-------------------------------------------------------------

IK UR LIL STORY ISNT FINISHED N U WONT CONTINUE IT, BUT I LOVE IT SM STILL 🫶🫶 I WANTED TO CONTINUE ON LIKE A LIL COLLAB!

THANKS SO MUCH ANON, THIS HAS FILLED THE EMPTY HOLE IN MY SOUL THAT LACKED MY PROMPT, EVEN IF IT IS LACKING PLOT POINTS, STILL ADORE IT NONETHELESS!!!

BEOMGYU: “We’re a team, so I want to work together to make it happen”

TOMORROW X TOGETHER The Name Chapter: FREEFALL comeback interview

2023.10.27

Eight months earlier, BEOMGYU told us he didn’t want to lose to himself. Now he says he’s found a way to persevere.

You mentioned you were very happy and healthy throughout the second tour.

BEOMGYU: I didn’t get bogged down by the fear of what happened that one time. I was determined to overcome it. I did plenty of preparing physically and mentally in order to avoid a repeat of last time and handled everything well. I envied the other members of the group during the last tour and was sad that I couldn’t fully enjoy the concert experience due to my physical condition. I put all my worries aside this time and just focused on performing and I was a lot happier.

Have you mastered how to handle yourself in the face of extremes and how to overcome them?

BEOMGYU: Even though it was tough, things still worked out in the end, so I thought, Everything’s fine—it’s not like I’m going to die. (laughs) I kept experimenting by trying different things to check if I still felt my best after. I tried not eating before concerts, drinking energy drinks some days, taking arginine on other days. In the end, I found it’s always best to eat and having one multivitamin is enough to give me energy without putting a strain on my body. It’s like I found my own personal winning formula. (laughs)

Have the positive emotions you experienced during the tour carried over to have an effect on your everyday life? You mentioned in a previous interview that you felt like you had attained spiritual enlightenment. (laughs)

BEOMGYU: I mean, I’m happy. (laughs) Not a lot has changed, but while I felt like I was in a sort of state of nirvana back then, now I feel like I’m taking care of what I have to do every single day and accepting things for what they are—just going with the flow. These days I keep thinking, even if I don’t understand something, it’ll all turn out okay in the end if I just go with the flow. At the end of the day, I’ll just go home and get some sleep. All things shall pass. And then I feel fine. There’s no reason to get all worked up about things and let them get to me.

I guess that’s what you meant when you said that—“all things shall pass”—during the tour, which turned out to be like a catchphrase for you.

BEOMGYU: Exactly. But I was trying to make myself believe that before and pushing myself, whereas now it’s how I really feel.

It seems like you’re continuing to live the life of an artist as you overcome those things that you feel you just aren’t naturally compatible with.

BEOMGYU: I was absolutely born for the stage, though. No matter how nervous I get, I always have a phenomenal time once I get on up there. But what I found emotionally draining once we got on tour was that every place in the world has different views and I had to learn to adjust quickly to those. That was a difficult process. Not to mention I became a lot more introverted after we debuted, so I found it really hard communicating with all those people while promoting internationally. The pressure from that kept weighing on me while we were touring. But we did similar promotions recently and I went out of my way this time to go up to people more and reacted to things in over-the-top ways despite my terrible English. (laughs) But it was pretty good. I think I’ve learned some ways to overcome things.

Have you also changed the way you recover and distribute your energy now that you’ve been to so many different environments?

BEOMGYU: That part’s still the same. I get in, drink some barley tea (laughs) and fall asleep watching Netflix. I’m the type to pour 100% of my energy into everything I do. I try to be as energetic as possible whether I’m on a variety show or performing on stage, so my batteries are always going from 100, down to 0, back to 100, to 0, and on and on. (laughs)

And the stages you performed on keep changing, too. There's something new to grasp and adjust to every time, so you must have to be hyper focused.

BEOMGYU: Interestingly, if you perform 30 times, you’d think it would be easier by the 30th time. But if you keep doing the same thing over and over? Then you actually start to mix things up. I don’t know if it has something to do with complacency, but I make mistakes more frequently as time goes on. So the more you go on, the more you have to really focus on each performance. The idea is to never mess up the parts that have changed or I’ve messed up once before, ever again.

It’s amazing how you took the most impressive moves in “Back for More” and made them that much better by putting your own spin on them.

BEOMGYU: I think I mentioned before that, when I first hear a song and see the choreography demo, I can picture things, like how to convey certain parts, or maybe if it would look cool if I looked away like this. It can be a little hard to explain because it’s all in my head. I thought a lot about the part in the chorus after the second verse where we jump up and whip our hands in particular to figure out how to make it look cooler.

And were you satisfied with what you landed on?

BEOMGYU: Yes! But I always end up liking what I do. (laughs) I’m really proud of it. (laughs)

You said before that you watched your old dance videos to prepare for the tour and that you found a lot of parts that weren’t up to your standards. Do you feel you improved while learning the single “Chasing That Feeling”?

BEOMGYU: I used to be obsessed with putting the maximum amount of energy into my dance moves. Then I got some messages from friends after the year-end awards shows, saying, “You were too intense. You should tone it down a bit.” I thought the best thing for those big performances was to put more and more energy into them, but lately I’m trying to dance in a more balanced and elegant way. The choreography for the new single isn’t that intensive, so I picked it up really quickly, but I know I have to practice how to express myself in a greater variety of ways. I always feel like, if I perform something live once, it’s a lot different from when I’m practicing to get the hang of it. I think it all becomes clear after performing it.

You struggled a bit singing the last album’s single because of the pronunciation. Did you face any similar challenges this time around?

BEOMGYU: There’s a line in the verse—“cheonguk-eul deungjin nan”—and to make that eu sound in the syllable deung, you have to narrow the inside of your mouth. I tried singing it 10 times, and missed the mark 10 times. But then, I once again attained enlightenment. (laughs) Now when I sing it, my voice never cracks. I figured out how to shape my mouth to pronounce it correctly and persevered. I wasn’t originally supposed to be the one to sing that part, but as soon as I heard the song, I said, “I have to be the one to do this! Can I? Please, just trust me. Give me a chance. I’ll make it work.” And I got the part. So I studied the part carefully to make sure I could get it done no matter what.

Songs that align with your vibe, like “Deep Down” and “Skipping Stones,” really bring out what makes your voice so alluring.

BEOMGYU: I’m especially fond of “Skipping Stones,” and most of the other songs off the album are all in genres and styles I like, so it was really fun to record the vocals. Sometimes I’ve done things where I thought, This doesn’t really let me show off my vocals, but I think the new album let me sing in a way that’s closest to my natural voice.

Are there also songs you helped write the lyrics to that you find easier to get into since they’re in your style?

BEOMGYU: The songs I find the easiest to get into are those where the emotions are most realistic and I can be honest about my feelings. For example, thanks to my own personal experiences, I can take on topics like liking someone or dealing with difficult emotions and add my own personal touch to them. But songs that are like The Star Seekers are written to conform perfectly to a theme. Was that a really T thing to say? (laughs) To be honest, I feel like I’ve already said everything I have to say about seeking stars, going through hardship, and growing up on repeat. (laughs) But I really liked writing “Blue Spring” since it’s truly about us.

You also produced that song. How did that go?

BEOMGYU: I pictured people singing along to it right from the outset, so I purposely gave it simple chords when starting out. There’s three or so songs I made while just playing around on guitar at home. We spent hours poring over chords in the studio, too, but I ultimately chose the track I made at home. “Maze in the Mirror” and “Blue Spring” are both about how I felt before and after knowing MOA. As you know, we went through a lot of hardship, and now we’re out there singing for all of them. I remember how hard those chilly blue days were, but I also know how happy I am now, so the song really tugs at my heartstrings. I have to hold back my tears whenever we sing the line, “No one knows about that winter,” in concert.

You’ve seen MOA as your best friend for a long time now, but when I watch your most recent Weverse Lives, I get the feeling that you want to have an emotionally closer relationship with them based on how you keep your streams laid-back.

BEOMGYU: I think it’s better to be natural and keep it real when I do Lives by myself than to be TOMORROW X TOGETHER’s very own BEOMGYU. Sometimes I just, you know, put my phone down next to me with music playing like a radio or something, lie down, and start talking. All I want from my relationship with MOA is to have honest, human conversations—not artist-to-fan conversations, but casual, natural conversations.

It's a dead giveaway that you’re looking to have a genuine relationship with them when you let MOA listen in on your phone conversation with your mom in the middle of a Live. (laughs)

BEOMGYU: I want to show them how I really live. (laughs) I can show MOA the kind of chemistry I have with other people. I’m always quick to call my mom when the other members pull a “Tallulah” on me. I don’t like that my mom doesn’t take my side, but I know she’s just having fun. (laughs)

TAEHYUN once said you have a knack where “he can talk and everyone would not find him annoying.” It seems to me like you already know the others will still find you cute no matter what kind of annoying jokes you play.

BEOMGYU: I’m good at walking that tightrope. (laughs) I was born with it. (laughs) I’m always messing around with SOOBIN, too, but if I think he’s being serious, I back off right away. I can usually tell how someone’s feeling just by the look in their eyes, so I intuitively keep my balance while walking that tightrope. (laughs)

What are you like when you’re with your family? It seems like your dad really means a lot to you, seeing as, when you were asked if you could live as someone else for a day, who would it be, you answered, “my dad.”

BEOMGYU: I’m better behaved when I’m with my family, and I like chatting with my mom and dad. We can talk for hours when we talk about the things they want to know about me, things I want to know about them—that kind of stuff. Like I always say, if I ever become a dad, I want to be just like mine. He’s considerate, and he and my mom are still like a new couple. They’re so cool. I even told that to my dad recently and he said, “Thank you for being my son and for growing up into a wonderful young man.” We still say “I love you” to each other. Our family’s full of love. (laughs)

I remember you said that you kept looking for MOA and their dads watching your concerts together.

BEOMGYU: Most likely those dads were there because their daughters or sons like us and they tagged along. I thought it was really cool that they were right there with them having a good time. I spent a lot of time with my dad when I was younger, too. One time I woke up at three in the morning and went all the way out to Taebaek with him to watch motor racing, and we would play soccer or baseball together before school. It’s experiences like that that let me know how good those memories are going to be for MOA when they look back on them someday.

You’ve said the other members of the group are like a second family to you. It was especially touching when you were nervous before going on stage and you said, “When I’m with the other members, I’m not worried.”

BEOMGYU: I was actually three times as nervous for our performance at the MTV Video Music Awards than any other concert. My heart wasn’t going ba-bum, ba-bum—it was going babumbabumbabumbabum. But right before we got on stage, we put our hands all together and yelled, “Fighting!” And then we hugged each other. That really brought me comfort. The other members are the only ones I can lean on whenever I find myself in that kind of unfamiliar, difficult environment. When I see one of them having a hard time, I feel like I should put my own problems aside for a while and work harder for their sake. And I think that’s all possible because we’re a family.

Is that also why you decided to work together to reach the very top, like YEONJUN and TAEHYUN talked about on SUCHWITA?

BEOMGYU: I had a really hard time during and after our first world tour, and I was certain that, unless I’m healthy, there would be no point in making it to the top. I was firm about that. So if I’m being honest, I felt pressure because of YEONJUN and TAEHYUN’s vision. I’m the kind of person who strives for happiness in his everyday life, but they said they feel like making it to the top is what would make them feel happy. What could I do? We’re a team, after all. We work together for the sake of each other’s happiness. I thought it over and said, We’re a team, so I want to work together to make it happen. If that’s what everyone wants, I’ll work hard alongside you. Let’s put in the effort and make it to the top.

That makes me think of how you made a point to say you like movies to have a happy ending no matter what.

BEOMGYU: I don’t like when they’re left open-ended, and I can’t stand sad endings. I get completely absorbed in the plot of movies and all the emotions there when I watch them, so it feels like I am the main character. I root for that character with all I’ve got and hope they’re happy ever after.

And you see the happy ending you wished for in your future, don’t you?

BEOMGYU: It certainly feels like I’m moving towards it. (laughs)

The Mothim and the Queen Vespiquen

Throughout history, Mothim have always been seen as a symbol of laziness, with how they always steal the food of Combee and don't partake in raising their young. This fable is an old Sinnoh story about a Mothim that tricked a Vespiquen and took all of her honey.

//prompt from @nerdpokemonheadcanons from this post they made. Also my plural from combee is still combee cuz I imagine that's how pokemon plurals work

One serene night, a mothim was searching the forest for a bite to eat. The nectar pf the flowers wouldn't do, and the mothim thought that the pollen of the flowers was too little. "Oh, what am I to do?" wailed the mothim.

As the mothim was about to sit down for a rest on a nearby branch, he smelled the wonderful smell of sweet combee honey. "Aha!" said the mothim. "What a wonderful smell! That shall be my meal!" The mothim followed the sweet smell until he was brought to the hive in the middle of the forest.

When the mothim saw the large hive and the amount of Combee guarding it, he knew he would have to make a plan. For you see, his plan was to trick the Vespiquen Queen into thinking he was going to marry her, only to leave her at the altar and take all of the hives honey. Then, he could be fed for life! He quickly gathered small wildflowers along the forert floor, before flying up to the entrance, which caused the combee guards to stop him. "Hault!" they all shouted. "Who goes there?"

Most bugs would have gotten flustered in this situation, but not mothim. The mothim swiftly replied, "Do not fear combee, for I am but a humble mothim looking to court your queen." He held out the flowers he had gathered, showing the combee guards. "I have gathered these flowers as a gift for her."

The guard combees whispered among themselves, discussing how to handle the situation. "Okay, mothim." Replied the guard combee. "With our presence, we shall take you to see the queen."

The guard combee brought the mothim inside of the hive, and the mothim stared in awe at the sight around him. Surrounding the hive were glistening pots of the most sweet-smelling honey, with it almost seeming to glow. The mothim's mouth watered, but he continued to follow the guard combee, less he be given away.

The guard combee took him to the Queen Vespiquen's throne room, where the mothim was placed in front of her. The Queen Vespiquen got up from her throne to look down at this lowly bug. "Who are you, and what are your reasons for entering my hive?" She commanded.

The mothim was completely unfazed though, and bowed when she was done stating her intentions. "Your majesty," he started. "The forest speaks so greatly of your beauty, and I have traveled far and wide to see it for myself. But standing here, I see how striking you are in person, and I would like to ask for your hand in marriage." He held out the wildflowers he had gathered, holding them up to the Queen Vespiquen as an offering.

The Queen Vespiquen was taken aback by the mothim's boldness. Under normal circumstance, the Queen Vespiquen would've said no to such a lowly bug offering such a lowly gift. But when she saw the mothim's handsome face and charm, she couldn't refuse. Taking the wildflowers, she said, "I accept your offer. Give me and my hive all of the day tomorrow to prepare, and we will have the marriage ceremony at moonhigh. You may sleep in my chambers tonight." The mothim bowed, and the guard combee escorted him to the Queen Vespiquen's chambers.

As he entered and the guard combee left him alone, he saw more pots of honey next to the bed, and he immediately went in for a taste. The sweet honey tasted like heaven, but he restrained himself. After all, he can get all the honey he wants tomorrow night, and never have to work for his meals again.

The next morning came, and the Queen Vespiquen, honoring her words, spent the entire morning arranging the ceremony, along with the rest of her hive. However, to keep intruders from entering her hive, she kept the guard combee outside, with all of them keeping watch of the honey.

As of now, the mothim followed the Queen Vespiquen and the other combee into a beautiful clearing. The combee immediately started working, making seats and wreaths for the wedding, with some of them gathering help from the local silcoon to use their silk and make a dress for the Queen Vespiquen. As the Queen Vespiquen was commanding her subjects, she turned to the mothim and said, "May you help out too?"

But you see, this mothim was very lazy, and did not want to partake in setting up for a wedding he wasn't going to show up to. So, he quickly made up a lie. "I would love to help, your majesty, but you see, I have a secret outfit I have prepared, made from the leaves of cherry blossoms. I want the outfit to be a surprise, but I have forgotten to pick it up at the edge of the forest. Since it is a days trip, I need to go now to pick it up."

The Queen Vespiquen smiled and clapped her claws together. "What a lovely outfit it must be! You may go." With her permission, the mothim left the clearing.

But the mothim didn't go to the edge of the forest, instead going back to the combee hive, planning to retrieve his honey. But as he got closer, he saw the wall of guard combee guarding the hive. How was he supposed to retrieve the honey if the guard combee were in front of it?

Suddenly, he had a plan. Quietly flying high above the combee guards, the mothim then used the move poison powder, sprinkling it all over the guard combee. The guard combee were then poisoned, and were all quickly getting hurt. And while they were poisoned and couldn't figure out what or whom did it, the mothim used a powerful air slash, whooshing the combee far away, where they all fainted from the poison and shock.

The mothim quickly took this opportunity, quickly flying into the hive. Finally, he was able to have all of that magnificent honey to himself! He gathered as many pots as he could carry, flying all the way to the edge of the forest where no one could go so he could hide them. The mothim spent all day and some of the night making many trips, making sure to take the honey all to himself. As he held the last pots and was at the edge of the forest, he collapsed at all the energy he had used. "How tiring! How tiring!" He shouted. "I'm never working that much again! As a reward for all of my hard work, I shall have my meal!" As the moon was rising high, the greedy mothim started slurping up all of the sweet honey without a care in the word.

Back in the clearing stood the Queen Vespiquen, where she was patiently waiting for the mothim to return. She wore a beautiful dress made from the silk of a silcoon, which appeared to glowning the moonlight. She wanted to look the best for her wedding night, after all. At moonhigh, the Queen Vespiquen still waited, assuming that the mothim was just late. After an hour of waiting, her patience grew thin. "Where is that mothim?" She asked herself. But as she was saying that, a swarm of guard combee came flying to her. "My queen! My queen!" They all shouted. "Something terrible had happened!"

"What is stressing you so badly?" Asked the Queen Vespiquen.

"Someone has poisoned us, blew us away with heavy wind, and stolen all of our honey! Not trace of it is left!" The Queen Vespiquen and the rest of the combee all gasped in shock. How could someone steal all of their hard-earned honey? The Queen Vespiquen quickly led all of her subjects back to the hive, to find that were her guard combee told her was true. All of the honey was missing! Every last drop! "How could this have happened!" She bellowed.

As she was lamenting her loss, a young combee appeared from the crowd. "My queen," he said. "I have found this. It might be a clue!" The young combee held the object up to her. It was a small glistening orange scale covered in honey, too small and soft to be that of a dragon's. But, what other pokemon had orange scales? Suddenly, it hurt her! The mothim who asked for her hand in marriage had been gone throughout the entire day, mothims can learn poison powder, mothims can learn flying type moves, and the scale matched that of a mothim. The mothim had stolen all of her hives hard-earned honey!

"That lowly greedy maggot has tricked me!" The Queen Vespiquen shouted, so loudly that the entire forest could hear her. If the mothim heard her? Well... he was too busy slurping up his new honey to care.

DAY 5634

Jalsa, Mumbai July 21/22, 2023 Fri/Sat 1:26 AM

🪔 .. July 22 .. birthday greetings to Ef Hitesh Gohel from USA .. keep well .. 🙏🏻🚩

अरे भैया ! का बतायें ! चार दिशाओं में काम किए आज हम , अलग अलग विषय को लेकर । और सब हो तो गया लेकिन , अच्छा नहीं हुआ । तो कल , यानी की अब तो आज हो गया है , उसको फिर से करेंगे , और आशा है की अबकी बार वो ठीक होगा !

😁

in the World of the translate what has been expressed ☝🏽 is that .. well first off .. that I am a Brownie .. the colour of the finger was given to me thus .. was going to comment about this, but better sense prevailed and kept it to myself .. my yellow pencil flutters in the pen box beside me .. 😳🤣 ..

is that .. what shall I say .. now this is the translate , not a continuity of the sentence above .. and I am not using the finger directional emoji .. ok .. my work today has taken me to all the 4 directions of the World .. on different issues and topics .. and all have been addressed, but not to my satisfaction .. so , tomorrow - well it’s tomorrow already now - I shall make another attempt to improve it .. and I hope that this time it is done better ..

Good no ? keep doing it again and again till it works right .. something will give in time .. because time also gets fed up when you keep at it .. so it eventually gives up and .. then .. the door opens , and we walk in .. isn’t it .. ? or rather ain’t it .. !!!

Alright .. so .. San Diego and K , the project .. a great moment for the film and the makers and all those that went there for the release of the first look for it .. I was pushed hard by Nagi Sir to come along, but work and medical restrictions have kept me away from many such occasions .. so .. but I must admit the first look was pretty darn good .. wasn’t it .. style, music, frames .. everything ..

.. and finally the reveal of K .. KALKI .. mythologically so important .. 2898 AD !!

‘AD’ has been changed has it not .. ?

yes .. AD , which i think was ‘anno domini’ , meaning ‘in the year of the Lord'.. was changed to CE - common era .. and BC, became BCE - before common era !

Why so .. have no idea .. it was related to the birth of Christ , before and after . hence .. but , each region in the World has its own year and month and named according to their calculated calendars ..

many considerate Ef are sending in messages to me ‘to get to bed ..’ .. but i wait .. wait for Abhishek and family to arrive .. they have just landed , and I shall go to sleep after meeting them ..

Vampire Siblings

Writer: 日日日 (Akira)

Character(s): Isara Mao, Sakuma Rei, Sakuma Ritsu, Anzu

Translated by: jewwyfeesh

Disclaimer: I translated this story from the CN version of the game, which means that it has been double translated (JP > CN > EN).

Rei: Oooh!! Ritsu!! GOOD~ MORNING~ ☆

Season: Autumn Location: Track and Field

Mao: Mmm~ The feeling of fulfillment after a good prac! It’s really amazing~ ☆

Oh, thankies. Is this isotonic drink for me, Anzu? You’re becoming more and more ‘Producer’-like with every passing day~

Seems like you’ve been running after lots of other units besides us Trickstar lately.

There there, you’ve worked really hard ♪

But yeah… even though I’m one to talk, I still think you should take care of your body and your schedule. I’d feel really guilty if you pushed yourself too hard and something happened to you.

Never mind. Let’s go home, Anzu. Today’s my turn to ‘send you home’, so I’ll make sure that you get home safe and sound.

Though… lately, it seems like I’m always the one sending you home…? To the point where I’ve even gotten to know your family fairly well.

Sometimes I’d even stay for dinner…

But I’m not complaining. My family’s the kind to do whatever they want. As such, we don’t really spend a lot of time together. So… It’s nice being with your family.

I wonder if it’s because I can do things like household chores all by myself?

Everyone tends to think, “Oh it’s fine if we leave Isara Mao alone, nothing will happen to him”, but my younger sister has always been coddled and spoiled by our parents…

Hmph, would it be better if I tried to act a little more spoiled? But the second I come back to my senses, I’m back to taking care of others again. I feel old.

You’re also someone like this, so please be careful. You can also lean on me sometimes, you know~?

Eh… I’m meddling in other people’s business again…

It’s about to become a bad habit of mine, forget it, forget it… It’s pretty good to be relied on by others, but I’ve been ‘like this’ since I was young.

It’s because of Ritchan, my childhood friend~ If I leave him to his devices, that guy literally won’t lift a finger to do anything. When it got to a point where I couldn’t stand it anymore, I could only go and help… I’d help and help and help till I became ‘a meddler and a half’ ♪

You know Ritchan, right? Knights’…

Ahh, so you’ve also taken care of him before. He’s always so lazy, you literally can’t ignore him~

…Eh? You’re saying Ritchan’s over there?

Ah, call for the cat and he shall appear… where is he~?

Ah! Goodness! This guy, sleeping outside without a single shred of protection!

One day you’re gonna get pickpocketed, what are you gonna do then…? I reckon he fell asleep after lunch, and slept ‘all the way’ till now~

HEEEEY— Ritchan!! Don’t go sleeping in places like these, you’ll catch a cold ya know~?

Ritsu: ……Mmhhghhh? Huh… Maa~kun…? Wh… don’t wake me up…

Mao: Of course I need to wake you up. The school gates are gonna close soon, and if we don’t get moving we’ll be locked in. Our school has always been particularly ‘strict’ about these kinds of things.

Ritsu: Eh~ …Well, whatever. I could just continue sleeping here and save myself the trouble of having to come to school tomorrow. The more I think about it, the better of an idea it seems~

I’m really sleepy, so just leave me be. No matter how much I sleep, it’s never enough…

Mao: You… you haven’t changed one bit…

Hm? Eh? What are you hugging? It’s not a bolster… right? A tree stump? No, that seems to be a person…?

Ritsu: What?

Rei: Huu… snzz… ♪

Kekeke… Little baby~ Be good~ ♪ Go sleep~ ♪ Uuuu ♪

Mao: Ahh~ Taking a closer look… isn’t this Ritchan’s older brother? Why are the both of you snoozing together? Seems like you have a really good relationship~

When I got to know Ritchan, this person was always overseas, so I didn’t get to know him very well.

To be exact… I only found out he existed after I enrolled in Yumenosaki Academy. Ritchan doesn’t talk about his brother very often, so I got a little worried…

Who knew that the both of them were actually so close ♪

Ritsu: …Maa~kun, do you have anything sharp? I think staking him in the heart would definitely kill him.

Mao: N-no, you can’t just go around killing people. Eh? Do both of you have bad blood? In that case, why are you sleeping next to each other?

Ritsu: I don’t know what this thing was thinking, nor do I have any interest in finding out…

More than anything, I want to bury this thing six feet below and wipe my hands of it ‘as though nothing happened’. Now. Immediately. The faster the better.

Rei: E-eh? What happened, is it already time to say “good morning”? Ah? Where am I?

Ritsu: Yo. Why are you sleeping next to me, huh? You reek of mould, so stay further away from me. What happened, how are you still alive?

Rei: Mmmhh… My mind’s all fuzzy just after waking up… don’t ask so many questions at one go…

What’s there to rush, hm…? Re-rest a little… yawwwwn… ♪

Ritsu: No. No sleeping. I’ll kill you.

Rei: This tone… one that shows no mercy, even to one’s own blood brother…

Oooh!! Ritsu!! GOOD~ MORNING~ ☆

Ritsu: Don’t hug me! You’re so annoying!

Okay but spit it out. Why were you sleeping by my side? Depending on your answer, you could be demoted from “someone who seemed to have been a brother previously” to “stupid bug”.

Rei: Even if you don’t demote me, it’s a bit much, don’t you think?

Nothing much… It’s just that when I was leaving for home, I happened to see Ritsu sleeping. I was worried that you’d catch a cold, so I used my body warmth to warm you up. This is a big brother’s love ♪

Ritsu: Is that so? I understand, you don’t need to say anymore. Complete waste of Earth’s oxygen.

Maa~kun, could you help me get some cement from the warehouse? I want to solidify this thing in there and let it sink to the bottom of the ocean.

Rei: We’ve just woken up, and yet Ritsu’s already trying to get rid of me!?

Mm~ Anywho! The elderly aren’t quite suited for outdoor camping… My whole body’s sore and stiff…

Ritsu~ could you help massage my shoulders please ♪

Ritsu: Didn’t I tell you to shut up? You stupid bug.

Mao: Okay okay… as brothers, you guys should try to get along well. Though, let’s leave the fighting and the shoulder massage aside, yeah? We’re really about to be locked in school.

Rei: Oooh, you’re from Trickstar… It’s already this late… Thank you for waking me up. Ritsu~ it’s been a long time since we brothers walked home together hm~?

Ritsu: Brother? I don’t have a brother, though?

Rei: Don’t deny your brother’s existence with such a deadpan expression… That’s a bit much, even for a younger brother, don’t you think? I’ll start crying…

Ahh, I can’t… My tear ducts are getting weaker as I age… Uuuuuu~

Mao: Ahaha, I think I kinda understand your relationship, Sakuma-senpai.

Ritchan, the more you talk, the more others are gonna think “oh he’s just in his rebellious phase”, so maybe it’s better to not talk altogether?

Ritsu: Damn it… That isn’t the case at all. I had only wanted to throw this annoying ass thing into the trash bin. Whatever, it doesn’t matter anymore.

Maa~kun, you want to send them… send the Transfer Student home, right? Hurry up and go, don’t worry about us.

Rei: Mhm, please be careful on your way back. Who knows what kind of demons will be roaming at this hour – for example, vampires… and the like… ♪

Mao: Yep. I’ll be careful. The both of you too; no more fighting, okay? Hurry up and go home~

Rei:

Mm, I’ve always been praying that I’ll have a close relationship with Ritsu! We’re brothers after all ♪

…Ah, Ritsu? Where did you go? Hey— Ritsuuuu~

Ah, he dashed off at the speed of light. He really does hate me, huh? Hehehe ♪

Wait a minute, I am also more active at night! Well, when it comes to hide and seek, I’m not about to lose to a ‘novice’ ♪

Aaah… Running around like this under the night sky, it really reminds me of our childhood ♪

Ritsu: D-don’t chase after me!! Didn’t I already say you’re annoying!? Did it completely fly over your head, you infuriating Anija!?

Rei: Excellent, excellent… he’s finally willing to acknowledge me as his brother. Anyways, we take the same path back home, my super duper adorable little brother…

Translator's notes: [1] The original CN term here is 「菜鸡」, slang for "complete, total noob". I translated it to novice, a synonym. Personally don't think Rei would call Ritsu a "noob".
