His Starlight

⋘ 𝑙𝑜𝑎𝑑𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑑𝑎����𝑎...

I was requested for write more Billy headcanons with a fem!s/o so here's some short snippets. So thank you for the request! I'll be opening requests after I finish another piece so letting you all know ahead.

𝑃𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑒 𝑤𝑎𝑖𝑡...⋙

⋈ Billy makes some strange decisions at time, either cuz he’s trying to be cheap in order to save more, or he’s just not thinking straight and makes an impromptu purchase. As his s/o, you’re able to reel him in and help him make smarter decisions that’ll leave him so grateful that you care as much to aid him. Of course, this doesn’t count when he decides to splurge on you, because his girlfriend deserves only the best.

⋈ The girls in the Cunning Hares have at least met you a couple times before, after all they do care for Billy so only want to know who his new girlfriend is. That being said, Nicole is probably the one who can see the benefits of keeping you around, only to drop them once she sees just how much you adore their android friend that they’ve started noticing changes in him that are for the better. He still is goofy and oftentimes causing a ruckus with the others, but he’s become more thoughtful and acknowledges when things are going wrong or when they need to make a decisive decision in their work or expenses. Nicole doesn’t mind having you come around often, as long as you don’t become another mouth to feed. 

⋈ Best part of having such a cute girlfriend is being able to binge watch movies together and go out on dates. His favorites being the ones where they explore Lumina Square and stop to take photos. Of course, he loves doing the iconic poses from his favorite shows and movies, impersonating the actors to the point that it embarrasses you but he does it in a loving matter. But he also loves taking photos of you, drinking coffee at the Tin man’s shop, fawning over the shop bangboos, or even experimenting with the makeup in the salon there. He has a whole file saved of his favorite moments from your dates. 

⋈ Of course, dating Billy has its cons. For one he is usually cold to the touch because he’s made of metal and need to have his joints lubricated. But no worries, he does his best to maintain himself and makes subtle changes that you wouldn’t have noticed otherwise. Like buying a heating module to help increase his body heat, though the dealer he bought it from was kinda sketchy and now he overheats too quickly just from seeing your cute face. And when it comes to lubrates, he gets only the finest of lubes to help him move to the best of his ability. A little too well as you’ll have him turning head at record speed when you call him. Maybe even trip over his own feet trying to catch up to you. 

⋈ Billy can be a fool but he’s your fool. He loves and cherishes every day he gets to spend with you; And whenever he’s in a pinch, down in the hollows completing the hardest of commissions all for the sake of getting by with the Cunning Hares, he can only think of how you’ll be waiting for him on the outside. Ready to give him the biggest hug and rewatch Oh~ Sweetie where now he no longer finds joy in admiring the main actress as you shine brighter than any other starlight knight.

I made a Mistake

I came back to play ZZZ after seeing that the free 5 star was exactly the one I was considering going back to the game for and turns out it's more charming than my previous assessment of it

And I have no one to scream about this to because I only know one person who plays it and I don't wanna bother her 😭

[vxnuslogy]

– my proxy.

pairing: wise x gn!reader

premise: belle is currently suffering from an incurable disease of watching her brother play oblivious to your obvious hints of affection. she only prays that you confess soon or at least realize that wise actually feels the same.

– warnings: none

– author's notes: i am so normal about wise. whenever he starts talking in game i just burst into a fit of giggles. filler post for now. | ~700 words.

wise despite his name, wasn’t all that wise when it comes to noticing the very obvious hints you throw at him (or maybe he does know, he just isn’t speaking up about it). but belle does, and it sends her into a fit of giddy giggles that she hides behind her fist whenever it happens.

a fond and amused glint in her eyes whenever wise gets flustered after you call him “my proxy”. it wasn’t anything out of ordinary, wise always calls himself your proxy anyways, but whenever you do it on missions or when you go to hollows to accompany the cunning hares, it never fails to flush his cheeks a pretty pink. belle would let out a snicker and kick his feet from under the table and she’s always met with a warning glare. not once has he mentioned the romantic undertones of your words despite picking up on it himself. 

or the times when you would always drop by their store to hangout in his room. more often than not, when belle comes to check on you both, you’d be fast asleep on his bed with a bangboo in between you two. a devious smirk would always creep up belle’s face when she tip toes into the room and quietly open the cap of a washable marker to write on both of your faces. wise, when he wakes up, would come running down the stairs to chase belle around for writing “[name]’s proxy” in big bold letters on his cheek while you laugh. never once wiping the words of “wise’s hollow raider” with a heart on the cheek opposite to wise’s. 

belle isn’t ignorant nor is wise, but it does frustrate her when her brother doesn’t speak up about his very obvious feelings about you. a sudden feeling of irritation blooming within her chest when she sees your crestfallen expression when wise keeps calling you “just a friend” when general cop or the tin master ask what your relationship is. belle doesn't miss the flash of slight hurt in your eyes before you mask it with an awkward smile and wave of your hand, agreeing with what wise said even though you obviously want to be something more than just a friend.

she’s frustrated with you too. the hours the two of you spend in their workspace, curled up on the couch as you vent out your frustration at wise’s obliviousness. eight out of ten times, belle would just urge you to confess directly, however, you would always go quiet and murmur into the bangboo in your arms that confessing isn’t an option. at first, belle was rightfully confused. she saw how you looked at wise; you looked at him as if he hung the sun and moon himself. he was your entire world and you had him putty in your hands with just two words. it wasn’t until the day after when belle finally realizes –when nicole has her arms wrapped around your waist and an angry flush on her face when you enter their store battered and bruised, but still smiling– that this was a first for you too. 

before becoming a regular client, you would recklessly jump into hollows without a carrot or a proxy. barely making it out alive if nicole hadn’t found you and made you a member of her little band of misfits. you were enamored with wise when he first patched you up. you didn’t have anyone before him that cared enough to lecture you about danger, your recklessness, and bad habits. he was probably the first person that genuinely showed concern for you so belle understood for a moment why you didn’t want to confess. she’s watched enough romance movies and read books and comics to know that confessing has its risks. your friendship that you painstakingly built with her brother brick by brick would come crumbling down if you said those three words.

“my dearest proxies,” you barreled into their store front with a bright grin. belle doesn’t miss the twinkle in wise’s eyes when he sees you. “let’s go out for lunch. my treat!”

“what’s the occasion?” wise asks, putting down the boxes of videotapes on the counter to give you his undiverted attention.

your grin reached your eyes as you waved a piece of parchment in front of them both. “it’s paycheck day! and what better way than to treat my proxies to lunch for taking such good care of me.”

“count me in!” belle merrily jogs towards you and gives you a high five.

“what do you say wise?” belle flashed her brother with a knowing look. the boy only shook his head and started leading the two of you out the store.

“well, how can i say no to free food?”

wise stole a laugh from your lungs as you tangled your arms with them both. “that’s my proxy. now let’s go!”

belle never misses the way wise’s cheeks flush whenever you intertwine your arms together; it was as easy as breathing for you. she just hopes that one day you’ll see for yourself that wise also feels the same, he’s just clueless and a little shy to show it unlike you.

help! my bangboo is trying match-make me!

synopsis - your bangboo decides that it's time to set you on a date

includes - wise, belle, seth, ellen

warnings - gn!reader, fluff, slight crack, strangers to lovers, friends to lovers, awkward encounters, wc - 1.6k

a/n: shout-out to my friend, she was sat there in the hotel with me and gave me some amazing ideas (and listened to my rambling and even joined in-)

wise ★↷

you stared down at the list in your hand, you needed quite a few items although you reckoned that most could be obtained from the one four one. it was only going to be a simple errand or two but you still thought to bring along your bangboo, the company would be rather nice.

you managed to get most of your things, some extras as well, before deciding that a couple would have to be sought elsewhere. but as you looked up from the list you noticed that your bangboo was nowhere to be seen. slight panic was rising inside of you and then you finally noticed it.

out the corner of your eye you could see your bangboo running down the street, more panic set in as you went after it. luckily it only ran into the video store down the street, not any further but you definitely would have to apologise to whoever the owner was for your bangboo’s poor behaviour - it'd never done this before so you wondered what had gotten into it all of a sudden.

your panic only doubled however when you opened the door to the video store just in time to see your bangboo run into a grey haired guy. fortunately he didn't seem too bothered, more concerned about the bangboo that was now lying on the ground. wise quickly noted how the bangboo must belong to you, based upon how quickly you ran towards it and the look of concern on your face.

you hurriedly helped your bangboo back up before apologising to the unfortunate victim of your bangboo's “rampage”. wise assured you that it wasn't an issue, you were rather relieved that he wasn't so bothered but a small bit of guilt nagged away at you. while you were talking with wise, your bangboo kept observing the two of you before coming to it's own conclusion that neither of you were aware of.

and so as you tried to leave you noticed your bangboo stood rather firmly next to wise. you both tried encouraging it but it refused. eventually it made it's way over only to try and push you back towards wise. you let out a sigh of disbelief as wise held back a small laugh. after a very long while you managed to convince it to leave.

now everytime you visited sixth street your bangboo would end up dragging you to random play, and more specifically wise. and eventually as you started becoming friends with wise, your bangboo never looked so proud of itself - but it certainly wouldn't stop until you two actually got together.

belle ★↷

recently you had heard of a new video tape circulating that you were dying to get ahold of and see, fortunately you knew of a great video store on sixth street. so as soon as you had the time you made your way to random play accompanied by your bangboo.

admittedly you were quite the regular there, it definitely held up to the reputation it had. so you figured that if anyone would have that new video tape, it'd be them. over the times you visited, you'd become quite friendly with the siblings who ran the store and so you're sure that they'd help you find it regardless of whether or not they actually had it themselves.

you arrived eventually and immediately went to ask the bangboo at the counter for some assistance, belle emerged from the staff only rather quickly afterwards. she listened to your request before agreeing to help you find it, she wasn't too sure that they had it, they hadn't exactly updated their stock recently, but she would try to get ahold of it for you.

she promised to return in a few minutes before disappearing to the staff only for a while, and in the meantime you decided to glance through the other video tapes to pass the time. eventually she re-emerged with good news but you'd have to return the next day to collect it. you thanked her before making your way home, except as soon as you left the store, you noticed your bangboo was nowhere to be seen.

immediately, you turned heel and went back into random play and saw belle trying to urge your bangboo out of the staff only. this wasn't exactly the first time your bangboo had tried to stay at the store and you had a bad feeling it wouldn't be the last. belle only laughed when you apologised again as she assured you it's not a big deal - if anything she found it rather cute that your bangboo liked the store so much, unaware of its real reason.

and as soon as you returned the next day, your bangboo did the exact same thing. every single time. it certainly wasn't going to give up, it wanted the two of you to spend more time with each other and you both would soon come to learn that it would stop at nothing.

seth lowell ★↷

you sighed as you stretched out your arms, you looked down at the remaining paperwork on the desk before glancing at the clock. the remaining paperwork would have to wait, it was your break and you certainly weren't going to waste it on leftover files. standing up, you started thinking what to actually do with your free time before you noticed the lack of bangboo's around you.

more specifically your bangboo who usually stayed by your side at all times. only now it wasn't anywhere to be seen, not near your desk or anywhere in sight. panic started setting in as you now had to go search for your bangboo - not exactly how you saw your break going but maybe you could find it quickly enough.

so far, you're bangboo was nowhere to be found. the panic was increasing and you were worried something bad had happened to it. but you were quickly snapped out your worried daze by the sight of seth crouched down in front of something in the hallway. he heard you approaching and stood up to reveal your bangboo behind him.

he explained how he saw it wondering around aimlessly and got rather excited when it spotted him, and since he knew it was yours he figured he could wait with it untill you showed up. you thanked seth for helping return your bangboo, you both knew how much trouble you could land in for letting it run around like it did - even if it wasn't entirely your fault.

he assured you it was no real problem and he was glad that you two were reunited. you and seth bid farewell but your bangboo wasn't so happy about the short encounter and before anybody noticed it ran infront of you as you walked off, causing you to trip.

rather fortunately, seth was just quick enough to catch you before you fell. except now you were both a blushing mess and your bangboo was rather proud of itself - admittedly your bangboo was much more aware of your feelings for eachother than either of you. you and seth quickly parted afterwards, but your bangboo was not going to stop until one of you confessed.

ellen joe ★↷

lumina square was always busy around this time. you knew that but yet you still couldn't help but agree to meet with some of your friends there. idly glancing down at your phone, you became less aware of your surroundings, only noticing anything when you realised the weight of your bangboo leaning on your leg was no longer there.

panic set in almost immediately as you were worried something may have happened to your bangboo or it could get lost. fortunately, you managed to spot it waddling its way over towards the teamilk store and you could only hope to catch up to it before something bad happened - the busy streets didn't exactly fill you with much hope that it wouldn't be hurt if you didn't catch it quick enough.

it had never done something like this before and so you were struggling to think why it would run off all of a sudden, maybe it just really wanted some teamilk? the reasons didn't matter, all that mattered now was catching your bangboo and making sure it didn't cause any trouble.

you paused when you watched it run toward your classmate ellen. you two had talked on occasion, more so recently, but you two were definitely not friendly enough to walk away from this encounter being anything other than embarrassing. as soon as you realised you stopped, you quickly caught up to your bangboo which was now bothering ellen.

luckily, she was currently waiting alone and so you wouldn't run the risk of anyone else seeing the awkward encounter. still, you apologised and explained that you didn't know what had gotten into your bangboo and ellen only muttered something as you tried ushering your bangboo away.

you felt slightly bad and so you offered to buy her a teamilk as an apology, one she didn't turn down. fortunately for you, she agreed but only to share one seeing as she was planning to meet with her friends later. but this simple encounter couldn't of made your bangboo more happy as it new it was helping you two move in the right direction.

Wise x

ok hear me out-

yandere, smutty, sharing, reader degradation

Scenario 1:

You're a solo agent who has relied on Phatheon - relied on Wise - for years. Being in such crippling debt is not ideal, the only way you can really pay off anything is through the hollows. You're just lucky to have such a doting Proxy.

It's scary fighting all those monsters, but, with such a handy companion, you know you're safe. Even so, it can get very embarrassing.

"Didn't you wear that underwear yesterday?"

"You really don't leave much to the imagination, do ya, (Y/n)?"

"I'll jump first, just make sure to land on my face, 'kay?"

You can try and retaliate, but, if you don't show up wearing a skirt or change inside the hollow, then he's just going to sit there and not lead you. Complaining and pushing him does nothing, he may as well just be disconnected.

At least, if you're ever being chased on the 'safe' side by other gangs or some criminal or public secs, you can hide safely in his bedroom. In his bed. Him in you.

Well, you have to thank him for being so kind, don't you? It's only polite.

Don't even think about asking other Proxys for help, he'll easily overshadow them or spread misinformation. Honestly, no one wants to get on Phatheon's bad side anyway.

Whether it's him or his Bangboo, you can bet he's going to be one annoying, clingy pervert.

Scenario 2

You're part of the Cunning Hares. You join thinking you're going to help make some cash to survive on the streets, only for Nicole to throw you to Wise as "Interest on their outstanding payment with Phatheon."

Cue you sitting between his legs while he's at his computer, soft cock just warming up in your mouth. Docile you is too meek to do anything about it, especially when your wrists are cuffed to the legs or arms of his chair.

If you want to talk you have to get his attention somehow, don't remove your mouth unless he explicitly says you can. Otherwise, a good spanking is in order.

Nicole ain't gonna bust you out, either. She'll be telling you to up the performance in hopes of getting even more shaved off the bill.

If you're lucky (not), Wise will invite Billy in for some fun. "How about it, let her grind on your face while she sucks my cock?"

All the eager to comply, you're soon letting the robot explore you while you actively please your employer's proxy with your mouth. The three of you sure make a cute trio.

It's rare you go on hunts with them, though if you do, you're usually stuck on supply duty. Can't risk you unable to 'work', yanno? Leave the fighting to the professionals, and you can stick with what you're good at!

It also makes for some fun moments between you, Billy and the Bangboo.

You just exist to be bullied, it seems.

... ... ...

Wise will make sure you're completely dependent on him. If you need money, food, a roof over your head then you better believe it's him you go to. In a world with Hollows, gangs, corrupted law, it's not that hard to 'fake' an accident if you went elsewhere.

He's not worried about you running around and leaving the store, as long as you know you to come back when you've got it out of your system. He's not above punishment and chaining you up.

Don't believe his calm and collected responses, just pay attention to his eyes and you're bound to notice what kind of emotion he's emitting.

Could I request Ellen, Ben, Wise, Belle, and Grace with a reader who can sleep anywhere anytime?

Alrighty I am back from being not being well mentally and physically but I'm fine now I just had a massive headache from the heat on a school day, even my classmates (Mostly the girls) was worried about me ANYWHO!

Pairings -> Ellen Joe, Ben Bigger, Wise, Belle, Grace Howard x Reader

Warnings -> None

Note -> Just reader sleeping anywhere at anytime

Genre -> Fluff

Ellen Joe

Twins

Literally twins on sleeping anywhere and at anytime

Like literally

You and her would be best sleeping buddies

Like you and her would sleep in the mansion, while cleaning, fighting, missions, anywhere!

Ellen likes that she has a similar person that sleeps like her at anytime

So she always seems to come with you as she knows that you would sleep at a random time while on a mission so she comes with you just in case

to protect and to sleep with you

I feel like this girl is a light sleeper so that's why she comes with you because I feel like she wakes up quickly after hearing noises that might sound like a threat or any danger

But you and her literally sleep buddies and no-one can tell me otherwise

Ben Bigger

This big guy would always know when you are about to fall asleep

Like I feel like hw would have a blanket, a pillow and other comfy stuff for you

He would even stay with you when you sleep which is so CUTE

Ben is the type of guy to protect you from Ethereal Creatures if you fell asleep during a mission or a fight

But in the end you are there waking up without a scratch on you while the poor guy has some injuries on his fur

but fear not you would tend those wounds and you and Ben will have a nap together

I BET HE IS SO SOFTT

like a pillow, you would lay on him while he snores which I bet he will

But you two (mostly Ben) deserves a well nap

Even though you mostly fall asleep every time and any time at anywhere

But Ben is glad you are getting sleep but is also worried for you for falling asleep a lot

But luckily this guy is there is protect you

Even when everyone is being loud

He would tell them to be quiet

Wise

Hmmmmm

I would feel like Wise is the type of guy to let this happen

But he would stay with you, like for example

If you are at his store and in his room upstairs and you would randomly fall asleep

He wouldn't mind as he would try to stay quiet while either working on his stuff on his computer or maybe read some stuff while he waits for you to wake up

Once you do he would say "Good morning sleepyhead" When it is night time

You would have some bed hair as he would fix it for you

But when you are out for a mission, he's bangboo is always going to make sure you are in a safe area to sleep

If you do he would stay by your side as the others would fight

Like I imagine his bangboo with a angry face as he spread his arm and legs out to shield you

CUTEE

But wise would be a good person to sleep with

Like he's quiet and he's very respectful for your personal bubble but when you want cuddles he would always cuddle you

And then you would be knocked out a few minutes after cuddling

Belle

This girl gives me the vibes of speaking too much to the point you would fall sleep

Then she would notice and then suddenly go quiet

And when she does, you would wake up and asked why she stopped talking

It's like her voice lullaby's you to sleep which she finds cute

She would obviously play with your hair while your head is on her lap

Her gentleness when she plays with your hair as she gives little humming tunes

You would wake to your hair either braided, in braided piggy tails or just out all messy from the bed hair

she would most definitely brush you that after you wake up

She just loves your hair, it always so soft and fluffy to play with

But sometimes she would fall asleep with you when playing with your hair

Grace Howard

She gives me vibes of night owl and that she goes to bed late

But she would always make sure you are in a safe place when you fall asleep so she can keep an eye on you

But when you two are on a mission she would protect you

Honestly she your shining knight while you are the sleeping beauty

But when you two are not in a hollow and she working in her little area for her babies aka machinery

She would always have a little corner for you to sleep whenever

There will always be pillows and blankets and your stuffed animals because why not

Grace is like always in mother mode when you walk off anywhere without her permission but she worry that you would sleep on the road or something like that

But she would always find you in the end somewhere in the work site asleep, either sitting up or slouching somewhere

She would always carry back to her work space and put you on her lap to caress your hair or face

Or she would put you back in your little napping area

A Day in the PubSec Office - Seth Lowell x gn!Reader

Summary -> 1.5k words. Exactly what the title says. Not quite teeth rotting fluff, but it's still cute Warnings -> None A/N -> To whoever asked I write about Seth, curse you for bringing this man to my attention. I just wanna pick him up and shake him now

Image taken from ZZZ wiki

Wake up, breakfast, transit, clock in, sit at your desk, and finally the workday begins. There was a bustle of phones, paperwork, patrols coming in and out, a janitor who lost the keys to the paper towel holder in the men’s bathroom, the squeak of that godforsaken wheel on your chair as you rolled backwards. Stretch, get coffee, rest your eyes, sit back down at your computer. Schedule meetings with investigators, make sure prison transfers happen when they need to, gather reports on hollows and civilian cases and-

“Good morning, (y/n)!” The enthusiastic man pops his head over your counter and smiles enough to show off those cute little fangs. “Good morning, officer Seth.” You look up from your computer screen and offer him one of the mints you kept at your desk. “You’re in early.” 

“This is the same time I come in every morning. I just wanted to… switch up my schedule and come visit my favorite office worker.” He responds as he chews up the mint without really savoring the flavor.

You glance over at the tab that contains the schedules to the meeting rooms, scanning over the timetable until you land on something of interest. “Couldn’t get into the debriefing about the robbery on Sixth Street?” You tease and watch as his ears flatten and twitch. “Shut up…” He grumbles and watches as you straighten up a stack of civilian complaints. He stares intently, his pupils widening like he had just locked onto a target. It was cute, watching how much he wanted to help. “What are those?” He tries not to sound overly excited about the prospect of having something to do this early in the morning. 

“Just some complaints about a group of bangboos causing a ruckus in the alleyway. From what was called in it just sounds like a turf war between some alley cats and curious bangboos.” “I can go talk to them.” Seth offers a little too quickly. 

“The cats?” You tease just to see that little ear twitch again.

“The bangboos.” He scoffs and snatches one of the files from your hands quickly. “Leave it to your favorite officer!” You cross your arms playfully. “Who says you’re my favorite?”

“The phone you’re ignoring.” Seth teases back and leaves with a swish of his tail as you regrettably pick up the phone. 

“Lumina Square PubSec non emergency line, how can I help you?” You recite the script and listen to another complaint about a fat alley cat and a bangboo. “Yes, I just sent my best officer to take care of it.”

*********************

The day bustled on further, a tornado of paperwork being dropped by a secretary, cancel a meeting and move and organize another one with a different precinct, someone please find that damn key so you can stop noticing wet spots on the male officers pants, call the mechanic to come tow a patrol vehicle, figure out who unplugged Officer Cui’s charging station, settle a stupid dispute between two officers who both equally suck at paperwork, refill the coffee machine. Some days you wished there were two of you… or you could curse out the people who frustrated you. You rifle through a filing cabinet, looking for one file that was several years old because Zhu Yuan found a lead on a cold case. You grumble to yourself, repeating the name of the criminal as you open up the second drawer. You finally grab the file and start to go back to your desk where your lunch was surely gathering dust.

Your path was interrupted by two officers calling your name as they handed you a stack of paperwork to file. You let out a groan and file it all away, only to realize you filed away the thing Zhu Yuan needed. A headache was starting to blossom in your head as you lean your forehead against the cold metal of the filing cabinet. You close your eyes and take a few deep breaths. Remember, you work in PubSec, you can’t get away with slapping the next person who pisses you off. 

“(Y/n)?”

“What?” You whip your head around harshly before you register who said your name. You clear your throat and awkwardly fidget with your name badge. “Ah, sorry Officer Seth. How can I help you?”

Seth didn’t seem to take your words as hurtful, and instead continued on. “I have something that I really need your help with. Zhu Yuan said it overrules anything else you could be working on right now.” 

You let out a deep sigh and drag a hand across your face. “Alright. Hit me.” “Hit you?” “...Yeah. What do you need help with?” “Oh sorry I thought you actually wanted me to hit you.” He responded awkwardly. 

“Why would I want that?” His tail twitched. “I don’t know. You speak very deadpan when you’re frustrated and I can’t tell if you’re joking.” “Why would I not be joking!?” You ask, giggling a bit.

“You talk about walking into oncoming traffic all the time. I don't think I’m at fault here.” He continues, glad his plan to get you to smile worked without you realizing what he was doing. 

You let out a sigh and roll your eyes with a shake of your head. “Alright, what do you need Seth?”

“Follow me.” He turns to walk down a hall to a small meeting room. You think back to all the schedules and realize this room was supposed to be empty. Whoever booked it didn’t follow the proper procedures and might have thrown off your whole organization system. You actually stay in the office, all these boneheads who go out to patrol and cases are supposed to tell you when things in the office change and- “What’s all this?” 

Seth moves to sit at one side of the table where your favorite drinks from the convenience store and favorite ramen from General Chop’s sit. “Lunch,” he looks up at you with those big, eager eyes. “It’s so hard to get you out for lunch so I thought I’d come up with a compromise so you’re not eating your sad little sandwich at your desk.” “There is nothing wrong with my sandwiches!” You laugh as you sit across from him, eating a few bites and looking down into the ramen as you both ate. You were often taken advantage of, seen as nothing but a secretary, but this was incredibly sweet of Seth. “Thank you.” “Oh you do so much for us it’s the least I can do. This precinct would fall apart without you.” He states like it was the most obvious thing in the world, a sharp contrast to the pile of officers who never even bothered to remember your name. 

*********************

Last leg of the day, you’ve got this. 

More phone calls coming in, another patrol switch, more meetings, finally finding the key that was on the janitors key ring, Officer Cui somehow having more charging issues, a couple night shift officers calling in sick, Zhu Yuan asking about the file you had forgotten to get after lunch, Qingyi starting a betting pool that you had to smooth over before upper management started, someone losing a patrol vehicle only for it to have been in a different parking lot, a vandalism case wrapping up with the inside of the office now being covered in spray glitter and an entire can of decorative spiders webs and more and more and more. 

It was long after you were supposed to go home when you finally dumped the old coffee pot and put on a fresh brew for night shift. You slipped on your coat, clocked out, and got halfway through the lobby before your name was called again. 

“(Y/n), want someone to walk you home? That bag snatcher wasn’t caught today and they might still be out there.” Seth said as he quickly fell into step with you.

You thought back to that damned filing cabinet again and realized that the petty thief had been caught… by Seth… You looked at the man in front of you and just let out a sigh, a smile cracking across your lips. “I’d feel a lot safer with you by my side.” 

The walk to your apartment was rather uneventful, Seth asking about your day and listening intently to your every complaint before he tried to transition to lighthearted conversations to cheer you up. You stepped up to your front door and let out a tired sigh, thankful to be home. “Well, this is me.” Seth glances around before realizing he’d have to say goodbye now. “I’m glad I got you home all safe and sound.” “Is there anything you can’t do?” You laugh and turn to him to see that gentle smile still beaming at you. 

“Not that I’ve found yet.” He boasts and puffs up a bit, happily.

You step close and place a kiss on his cheek, pulling away to see the blank look on his face, the way his tail had puffed up to look like a bottle brush. “Goodnight, Seth.” “Ah… Goodnight. I’ll see you tomorrow.” He murmurs and starts to try to walk away before you giggle. “Tomorrow is Saturday. We’re both off on Saturdays.” “...See you anyway?”

He wants to know your likes your dislikes everyone you hang out with your family members, He will know you down to what soap you use.

First he was just happy with stalking you knowing everything about you but after a while he would want more. You would start bumping into you on the street slowly starting to hang out with you.

Just because he serves you that doesn't mean he's a pushover. Far from it He's only like this because he wants to serve you However he is not afraid to take back what little control you thought you had.

Of course, obedience is not without punishment, and as a strict wolf, he must uphold his rules. And there are a lot of them.

Von Lycaon Will cook for you cloth you, bathe with you, He would even goddamn brush your damn teeth for you.

He is self-aware but he is still delulu from the fact that he wants to get married to you someday. It will happen You just have to trust him more. In one of your many fights with him You yell at him that "You can't force someone to fall in love" and with a straight face looking you dead in the eye he answers " you can love someone by force that's called Stockholm syndrome. I researched that extensively"... You never had that argument with him again.

hiiii…any chance you could write a gn!reader x wise fic where they are both pinning over each other? Take your time and don’t rush, make sure to drink plenty of water! Thank you 🙏

Thank you for the reminder! I honestly only drink coffee when I write lmao. But I hope you enjoy this fic! I had some fun writing this, even if the idea might’ve gotten away from me ehe…

Note: Some small implication of mc!Belle

Warnings: none

“Seriously, when are you gonna just talk to them bro?” Belle asked out loud, not bothering to keep her voice down after watching the person, who Wise was obviously crushing on for months at this point, leave the siblings’ store.

“I have no idea what you’re talking about.” He responded, giving her a look before turning back to restocking the shelves.

“Oh please!” The bluenette almost screams, scaring the bangboo at the counter. “Don’t think you can fool me with your ‘oh I have to check the back real quick’ trick! You do it every time they’re here!”

“You’re talking nonsense.” He sighed, pointedly keeping his focus on his ‘task’.

“It’s not! Fairy, back me up!”

[Master is correct, I have noticed the pattern as well.] The AI’s voice resounds from the back. [I have also noticed the other behavioral pattern of Wise staring at the object of his affections when you both go outside and run across them.]

“What? I do not stare.” The male quickly turned his head to glare towards the backroom, though he knew the AI barely cared nor acknowledged him. Taking in another sigh, he just returned to placing the tapes in the box onto the empty shelves. “I don’t understand why you’re so hung up on this.”

“Because I want to see my brother happy?” Belle said, like it was the most obvious thing. She only got a head shake from the elder sibling, which made her huff in annoyance.

—

A few days later the bluenette had decided it was time to come up with a plan, one that they even secretly went over the probability of it working with Fairy. Even though said AI had told her it wasn’t going to work, Belle decided to go forth with her weeks-long plan anyway. Said plan being to become friends with the ‘dreamy customer’ as she liked to tease her brother about since she’s caught him daydreaming many times.

“Hey!” She greeted as the person entered the store, receiving a smile back. “Perfect timing! I already got the movie set up in my room so just head up there while I’m getting snacks.”

“Alright, thanks for inviting me.” They responded, though as they headed towards the stairs they looked back unsure. “I could help you know.”

“Nah, I got it!”

“Okay…” They quickly climbed up to the second floor, looking over at the two doors that greeted them. Luckily they had already been invited into her room multiple times before ever since the bluenette decided to open up a friendship with them. They were a bit shocked at first, but as the bluenette was insistent on hanging out with them, they slowly warmed up to the bubbly girl. 

And while it wasn’t their main reason, it was a nice bonus that the friendship caused them to run into her elder brother. Who they had formed a small crush on ever since they first came across the store. Though the good movies they had was their main reason for returning, having the opportunity to talk with him did not help with their crush festering. At least before they began to see less and less of him whenever they visited.

As they entered the girl's room, they gave the decor a once over. There wasn't any difference really, just some extra little trinkets they swear they haven't seen the last time they were here. But they didn't think about it too much before settling down on the couch, getting as comfortable as they could. They patiently waited for Belle to appear, occasionally looking over their socials. But soon a voice spoke up.

“I got all the snacks Belle, don't know why you asked me to head out to-” Wise began to speak, before freezing once he met eyes with them. In his arms were various bags of junk food snacks and bottles of different drinks. They froze as well, not expecting the male to enter the room.

The two stared at each other for a few moments before they heard Belle yell out from down below. “Oh sorry! I forgot I had something with Nicole! Watch it without me!”

Before either could say or do anything, they heard a door slam shut. The two of them just stayed there staring at each other, not knowing what to do. After a few moments, the person decided to stand up from the couch.

“I-I can leave.” They quickly said, snapping the male out of his stupor. He only sighed, grumbling within his own head as he began to realize what his sister had just done.

“No, it's fine. Would be rude of me to kick you out now.” He replied, stepping over towards the coffee table to get the food and beverages out of his arms. He could see them hesitate a tad, giving them a reassuring smile. “We'll both just have to reprimand her for triple booking.”

They chuckled in response, relaxing a bit as they sat back down on the couch. Though this time they kept to themselves to the side so as to create enough space. “Yeah. Oh, do you know what movie she picked? She never told me.”

“It's supposed to be this new indie documentary movie that we just bought.” He explained, trying his best to remember what he read from the blurb. “We usually watch the new stock before putting them on the shelf.”

“I see.”

The two stayed quiet for a bit, an awkward silence permeating through the air. Neither had any clue on how to truly talk to the other since they rarely had any opportunity to talk (thanks to Wise running away any chance he got, which he’s now regretting). Soon the male decided to start the movie.

As the film played the two watched on with very little commentary, not wanting to create another awkward silence. But occasionally Wise could hear the other mutter a small joke under their breath, causing him to smile a bit. Soon he began to respond with his own quips or opinions on the movie protagonists’ actions and attitudes, leading the two to become more casual with each other. But soon even that died down as the both could feel the tension start to rise within the film, making the two of them on edge as the protagonists argued over their situation.

“Y-You sure this is supposed to be a documentary?” They asked, their hands clutching onto their clothes a bit as the film began to show signs of something brewing behind the scenes. As more and more arguments began to sprung up within the film’s group, their nerves began to rise. In some form of unconscious comfort, they shuffled a bit closer to Wise in hope of their nerves easing. They don’t notice his own tenseness, nor the flinch he does once he realizes how much closer they were now. 

“Th-That’s what I remembered.” He stuttered, racking his brain over any other explanation for what kind of movie he was watching. It was obvious he was watching some kind of suspense, but everything he remembered in the blurb. But a sudden hand grabbing made him jump in fright, causing him to look over to see the other’s scared expression.

“S-Sorry! I-I just...” They explained, their words slurring with how fast they were talking. Their hands shook as they tried to will their grip to loosen from the male’s jacket.

Wise took in a breath, calming his nerves before giving a small smile. “It’s okay.”

The two stayed silent for a moment, the lack of noise only heightened by the movie’s lack of sound as well. Before a sudden scream resounded from the film, scaring both young adults into moving closer and wrapping their arms around each other. They could feel the other shake, trying their best to silently comfort the other.

“W-We should change the movie...”

“Y-Yeah…”

—

“Guys, I’m back!” Belle called out, expecting to hear the two to start cussing her out for her stunt of leaving them alone to watch a horror movie. But she only raised an eyebrow at the lack of response, slowly walking towards her room to see what the two were doing. “That’s weird.”

As she quietly opened her bedroom door, she gasped as she saw the sight before her. There right in front of her was her brother practically cuddling his crush as the two huddled together while they watched what looked to be a more family friendly documentary movie. It was loudly playing, quickly explaining why they didn’t hear her. She smirked, seeing that her plan had seemed to work mostly. Quickly taking out her phone to take a picture, though she forgot to account for the shutter sound effect as it spooked the two.

“Belle!” Wise almost screamed, clearing his throat so as to not look even more scared. Though it was clear to everyone it wasn’t working. Instead he just settled to give his classic upset big brother look. “Don’t do that.”

“What? I’m not doing anything~” She responded cheekily, only earning a harder look in response. “Besides you two seem to be having fun.”

“Well if it weren’t for you leaving us with a horror film.” She heard her friend reply, also giving her a hard stare. Though it wasn’t as serious as Wise’s.

“It was a horror film? Oops!” She chuckled nervously, as it was obvious no one believed her words. But as she placed herself onto the couch right next to the two she knew there weren't any hard feelings. “But we can still continue the marathon if you want.”

“I think I’m good for now, I should get home.” They said, slowly getting up. They weren’t able to catch the small frown that formed on the male’s face, but Belle was. They gave the siblings a small smile, grabbing a bag of candy. “But I’m taking these as revenge for that stunt.”

“What?! Hey, those are my favorites!” They didn’t bother to respond to the woman’s words as they casually walked out of the room. 

Though just as they reached the front door, a ping from their phone alerted them to a text. Checking it, they could see it was a text from the same woman’s room they just left. It was an image, the exact picture she took of them and Wise. They flushed as they began to realize just how it looked like they were cuddling, though they wanted to deny it since they were only trying to comfort the other from each other’s paranoia. But they couldn’t lie how cute it looked, scolding themselves in the head as they saved the picture.

Meanwhile Belle only smirked as the light scolding from Wise went in one ear and out the other. She could see that her friend had seen her message, but didn’t reply. Just as she was about to open her mouth, the voice of Fairy could be heard.

[Master, while I still believe the theory isn’t as plausible as you suggested…] The AI spoke, a small whirring hummed from below the sibling’s room. [By my calculations, the suspension bridge theory does seem to have some small merit.]

“No no no! You are not getting a part in this!” Wise huffed, crossing his arms in frustration.

[But it is very clear that even after you both changed the movie genre, your heartbeats were still high.] Fairy countered. [The same average that is typically seen when individuals are near their subject of affection.]

“You want me to send the picture to you?” She asked quickly, interrupting the male from his oncoming denial. She could see the gears turning in his head, resulting in him only sighing and turning away with an obvious blush on his face. “I’ll take that as a yes.”

“Shut up.”

[vonlycsnn]

Hi :) I'm not sure if you do angst or not, so if you don't feel free to ignore this. I was wondering if you could do Billy Kid and Lycaon with an injured reader.

★ — COMFORT AND SAFETY

~ BILLY KID AND VON LYCAON WITH INJURED (GN) READER.

SUMMARY: You get severely injured by Ethereals. Billy tries his best to help you, Lycaon stays by your side while you rest.

- cw/tw: mentions of injuries. hurt/comfort.

- A/N: hello! I love reading angst, I don't write em that often so this was good practice. Kinda a coincidence because I just maxed out Billy's trust rank today lol. Thank you for your request, hope you enjoy reading this! (may or may not overdid it with lycaon 😭)

"Oh no, oh no, oh no!" Billy dropped his guns and quickly ran towards you; your anxious bangboo followed. You were hurt badly. The two of you didn't realize that there was going to be so many Ethereals in one area. If you knew earlier, you wouldn't have separated from Nicole and the others.

Yet here you two were, covered in bruises and scratches.

"Oh god, oh god!" The robot kneels beside you, panicking. You were lying on the ground, staring at the gloomy sky. Trying to process what happened.

 

"Are you okay?! Did the giant Ethereal hurt you anywhere?! Ah, I should've helped you earlier!" Billy carefully inspected your body, noticing the light bruises and scars on your arms and legs. You lightly grabbed his metallic arm; he looked at you. Those yellow eyes looked so tearful. If he wasn't a robot, he would be crying right now.

 

"It's okay, Billy...im—" As you tried to get up and calm him down, you let out a hiss. Forcing yourself back down as you felt a painful sting on your back.

 

"You are hurt! Hang on, let me see how bad it is." He carefully helped you sit up; your bangboo jumped on your lap as you did. Absolutely worried about what happened to you.

You assured the bangboo that you were fine, trying to bite back any noises you made from the pain you were experiencing.

 

Billy slowly lifted up your shirt, revealing a large scar that ran from your shoulder to your hip. He gasped.

"B-billy, how bad is it?" You asked your robotic partner. He quickly stood up, scanning the area to see if there's anything he can use to patch you up.

"Bad! Like really bad!" He ran towards every corner of the area you two were in, hoping that there would be anything to help you.

 

"Damnit! There's nothing here! Agh, what would Nicole do in this situation?!" He started to panic again. You slowly and carefully stand up, setting down your bangboo on the floor. Noticing what you're doing, he ran to you. Putting your arm around his shoulder to prevent you from falling. You were so exhausted from fighting; if he wasn't supporting you, you would've fallen to the ground.

 

"It's okay, Billy. The exit should be across here... Let's just get out of here before more ethereals appear—" you let out another hiss. Billy stutters, still panicked by your condition. With a scar like that, you should be treated immediately. But knowing that there's nothing to treat you with, he just hopes that Nicole and the others are already outside the hollow to help you two.

 

You felt something being thrown to your shoulders; it was Billy's jacket.

 

"Do not fret! For I, the legendary Starlight Knight, shall protect you til the very end!" You heard him exclaim. You chuckled; you're glad that Billy is still the same as ever.

You were trembling.

You pointed your weapon towards the tall Ethereal that was cornering you, waving it around as a way to threaten the monster. Unfortunately, that did not work.

It slowly walked towards you, like a predator hunting its poor prey. Run, run, run. Your mind begged you to do something, but you just couldn't. You couldn't move your legs, so you were practically crawling backwards as the Ethereal approached you. Your breathing pattern was a mess; you couldn't think straight. All you knew was fear.

The Ethereal raised its blade, ready to tear you to shreds. You closed your eyes, preparing for the worst. You're going to die right here in the ballet twins, where no one could hear you scream. No one would find your body unless they sent public security to fin—

 

You heard the monster cry in pain, followed by a sudden breeze of cold air. Just as you were about to open your eyes to see what happened, you heard a familiar voice whispering close to your ear.

 

"I apologize for what I'm about to do, master. This is for your safety."

 

Before you could even process anything, Lycaon lifted you up effortlessly. You gasped in surprise, holding on to his shoulders for support. Soon after, he ran as quickly as he could from the Ethereal. You looked up to see his focused face; your mind calmed down knowing that Lycaon is here to save you.

The thiren made a quick and harsh turn to a dark corner; it was fast enough for the Ethereal to lose sight of you two. Lycaon carefully puts you down on the floor, laying your head on the wall.

"Don't move." He instructed.

 

He stood up and carefully scanned the outside area to see if the Ethereal was gone. Fortunately, it was. He sighed in relief, adjusting his clothes as he turned around and approached you. You were gasping for air, your heart beating fast from what had happened. Lycaon crouched to get on your eye level, looking at you so softly.

 

"Are you hurt, master?" He asked. Having no idea what to say, you nodded. pointing at your right leg. Lycaon carefully grabbed your leg, and before he could do anything, he looked at you for permission. You nodded again.

 

Lycaon gently removed your shoe, revealing a bruise on your ankle.

"It seems that you sprained your ankle. Not to worry, I can do some physical therapy to help ease the pain if you'd like." The thiren suggested. Your voice was quiet, but he could still hear you saying "please" thanks to his canine abilities.

 

"Very well then. You might experience discomfort, but I assure you I shall be quick with the treatment." You nodded at his statement, tightly closing your eyes as you felt his hands around your leg.

—

After a few minutes of pain, Lycaon stopped. He carefully sets down your leg on the floor, looking at you to see if you were uncomfortable in any way.

 

"How do you feel?" He asked. "Weird, but I feel better now. Thank you, Lycaon." The thiren smiled softly; he gently held your hand to comfort you. Only to then grab his pocket watch to check the time. It was getting late.

 

"Master, there should be an exit not far from here. Since you cannot walk because of your condition, I will escort you there." As Lycaon begins to stand up, you protest by tugging on his arm. He looks at you in confusion.

 

"Can we just...stay here for a few minutes? I need a moment to fully relax." You shyly requested. As much as Lycaon wanted to protest, he couldn't disobey his master's orders. He sighed, walking to your side and sat next to you. Removing the weapon from your hands, his thumb caress your hand to once again comfort you.

 

"...I'm sorry you had to see me like this, Lycaon. It was a foolish decision of mine to fight that monster alone." You felt so guilty over the fact that you were powerless against the tall Ethereal; you didn't want anyone to save you. You've dealt worse, so having to be saved all because you sprained your ankle was embarrassing.

 

"Nonsense. It is simply my duty to keep you safe from anything that tries to harm you." Lycaon said. You looked at him, tears in your eyes as you tried your hardest not to cry.

The thiren took notice of this and carefully wiped your tears with his thumb.

"I'm here for you, master."

A little Belle pinning. Something short and sweet, experimenting with more writing. Hope you like it!

Belle x Gn!Reader

𝑃𝑙𝑒𝑎𝑠𝑒 𝑤𝑎𝑖𝑡...⋙

tagging: none

tw: Fluff, pinning

With a sigh, I pushed off the desk in the staff room, the hum of monitors and the low-setting of the running fan being the only thing filling the silence. Wise was busy running the shop while I worked on our Inter-knot account, yet it was already getting late so I figured I’d finish up work and head to bed early. As I stand up, groaning as my legs tremble in a dull ache of being neglected, the sound of someone coming in left me turning to see Wise; my older brother coming to check up on me.  “Hey Belle, I’m closing up shop now, how’d the commission go?”

“Ah, another success for Phaethon, no worries. Though I hadn’t realized how long I’ve been working on this new account.” Yawning into my hand, Wise only rolled his eyes before coming over and patting my shoulder. In the past we used to take turns between taking commissions, however now that we’re facing some financial debt and need to reset our progress in our Proxy work to make our living again, we’ve both decided it would be best to split up and focus on both the store and our commissions to help cover our trail and act up the role of being another pair of normal residents in New Eridu.

“Hey, as long as you remember to eat lunch and dinner. By the way, [Name] came by earlier while you were at work.”

Hearing this, I perked up and trailed after my brother into the shop, curious about their visit. “Oh!? Why didn’t you tell me earlier? What did they come by for?”

“Eh, I figured you’d say that- they insisted that they’d come by later so you could focus on your work. I guess they wanted to hang out tonight. Check your messages, they probably texted you already.” I sigh in annoyance before taking out my phone and wandering into my room upstairs, gnawing on my fingernails in a nervous habit when it comes to [Name]. I’ve known them for a while now, they used to be a regular at our shop before we became close friends. They are an amazing person, being truly caring and compassionate. You can’t help but listen when they speak because they speak so beautifully about everything and anything. With a sign, I flop down on my bed, feeling warmer than usual,

‘Man, maybe I really do have it bad for [Name]. Wahh, why me and my cute friend!’

My messages were filled with our friends and clients, however my recent messages are from them, seeing another pop up as I stare longingly at the screen. Opening it quickly, I misclick on their icon leaving me to call them instead. In a panic I squeal and attempt to hang up… only for the call to be answered.

‘OH WHY ME!?’

“Hello? Belle, you there?” I pick my phone up and up to my ear, blinking away my embarrassment and try to strain my voice to be normal again. “A-AH Hi [Name]! How’ve you been? Heard you came by earlier, why didn’t you come bother me?” I joke in a teasing tone, ignoring how my door was left open for Wise to conveniently walk by, stalling at the doorway with an all knowing smirk. I could only glare at my sweet [name] responses in light.

“Ah, you know I wouldn’t interfere with your job! But yeah, I did come by earlier. Sorry I didn’t tell you ahead of time.” Rolling over to my stomach, I could only smile as they muttered sweetly to themselves on the other line. My feet kicking in the air as I twirl a lock of my hair, “Don’t worry you pretty head about it. So- What did you want earlier?”

They are quiet on the other side of the line, probably flustered over my compliment. I’ve known them long enough to know how they’d react. How they easily get flustered over things like praises and compliments, something I’ve always teased them about in the past but now I always push for when I hang out with them. The joy it gives me when I can make them pink and stumble over their own words, fiddling with their fingers to process their next words carefully.

“Well, I wanted to see if you’d be busy tonight. I-I’ve been pretty lonely lately so I’ve tried reaching out to some friends to see if they wanted to hang out but none of them… well it was whatever. So I came to see if you wanted to… um- idk watch a movie and eat snacks or something.”

I clutch my chest at how heartbreaking they sound, getting up to go to my brother’s room, standing in his doorway to get his attention while I talk quickly. “NO-NO, I’m not busy at all tonight! Why don’t you come over and we can watch any film you want. I have some snacks and Wise won’t even be here for long tonight-”

“W-What? But I don’t-”

“Yeah, he has a dinner date with General Chops at his ramen shop. So I’ll also be alone so come over! We can even cuddle with Eous on the couch, he loves you!” I nod my head towards Wise as he gets up, my brother rolling his eyes as I push him out of the room and down the stairs carefully. [Name] was coming over and I didn’t want my brother bothering us now that we have a chance to be together, alone!

“Oh- Um, oki! I’ll come over now then, I should be over in 20 minutes then? See you soon B! I’m so excited to see you!” After hanging up, I squeal mentally before I’m hit on the head, groaning in pain as Wise scoffs at my quick thinking. ��Really Belle. Dinner date with Chops?”

“I need you to help me here! [Name] is coming over, I need this now and I need you to be out! Go hang out with your friends, I promise we’ll be fine while you're out!”

I plead with him while he only laughs at me, taking his wallet and phone on him before taking the keys of the store car. “Fine, fine! Just this once. Call me if you need anything.” I cried in joy as he agreed with me, giving him a hug before letting him leave the parking lot. Now the real work starts, running around the shop and my room. Cleaning up old laundry, making my bed neatly to match Wise’s, sweeping up the shop until everything is clean and looks neat. 

‘Hopefully, this is enough to make them think that we aren’t living in a total slum.’ Sure, before this wouldn’t matter much in the past when they’ve come over multiple before, but tonight felt different. I could feel it. 

▿

Finally, after a short while, longer than I expected- a knock is hard on the storefront and I rush over and peer through the window. It’s [Name], wearing their iconic sweater and fidgeting their hands like they usually do. Opening the door, I smile as they nervously gasp and grin. 

“H-Hi Belle! Sorry I’m late! I stopped by the shop to grab some more snacks, I even got your favorites! So I’m ready for tonight!” They cheer sweetly, holding up a plastic bag filled with an assortment of candies and chips, proud of their haul that I can’t help but stare, my heart thumping fast before letting them into the store. 

‘God, could they be any cuter? Anymore and I might just kiss them right here and now.’

← previous chapter next chapter →

The day after your recent visit at the Video Store, you got a message from the shop owner whom you gave your number too. Curious, you decided to check it out immidietly!

Well... you never really were a big fan of romance movies but... it's always time to try something new, no? Or maybe it's just the mood you've been in recently... But if he recommends it, you'll trust his choice!

So after finishing whatever you had at hand, you left your place and made your way to the Video Shop you knew a bit by now~

As you entered you notice 2 owners of this place whispering to each other, one was definitely more energetic than the other too... But as soon as they saw you Belle moved back to "help" Bangboo with... you don't even know what... but Wise was left alone to handel you.

W▹"Welcome back, I have the videotape you wanted saved. Here it is."

He handed you videotape with pretty blonde haired girl wearing red lipstick and dress in the same color and shade. In exchange, you reached your hand out to take it from him, his hand quickly letting go of the tape when he was sure you got a good hold on it.

W▹"The pay for renting is the same as last time..."

Wise reminded you of the pay but seemingly Belle couldn't take it any longer and decided to hop in.

B▹"No need to pay this time! You get the usual bonus and this time we'll let you rent it for free!"

W▹"Since when do we-"

B▹"Just be sure to drop by more often!"

Y/N▹"I can do that I guess..."

B▹"Drop by soon then! Let Wise know what you thought after you watch it, okey? I'm curious how you're gonna like it~"

Y/N▹"Heh, sure~ See you!"

You waved to both of the owners and little Bangboo who also waved back at you as your legs guidede you through the entrance to said store.

I usually don't do gn stuff anymore unless the mood hits me but I like this idea a lot so let's get to it~

•Not many people knew it, but Belle and Wise actually have a younger sibling. Unfortunately, you were missing at the moment

•The reason being is that during the collapse of the old Eridu, they ended up being separated from you

•Hell a reason they actually started doing proxy work because they thought it might actually help find their lost sibling

•They knew the chances if you being found were slim and you actually surviving were even slimmer

•Especially since you weren't exactly the brightest person out there, you were airheaded and could be pretty oblivious at times

•That didn't stop them from holding out hope for you, though, since while you were airheaded, you are also weirdly competent and could always get yourself out of a bind

•And thankfully the siblings faith in you was rewarded

•It's took places a few months before they lost their Phaethon account

•Belle was in doing proxy work with the Cunning hares when they came across a random Agent in the middle if fighting several Ethereals

•And while normally they wouldn't interfere in such a mess, given that they didn't know who you were or if you were with Public security they still ended up watching

•Why well it was because of how despite the odds the fight was so incredible one-sided

•You skillfully and swiftly dispatched ethereals left and right dispatching them all in short time

•That when you start acting in a way completely different from when you dispatched those ethereal

•You were acting like an energetic kid, even bragging out loud about how cool you were, It was a stranger familiar feeling to Belle

•That's when you surprised everyone by suddenly popping out of nowhere right next to them and just started asking about directions

•Needless to say, everyone was confused at that point and caught off guard, with the exception of Anby who seemed to just be going with the flow seemed to be striking up a conversation with you

•That's when Belle noticed your way of speaking being extremely familiar, that being talking in the third person and your familiar hair color being a silver that fades into a dark blue

•That's when finally you stated what your name was in that energetic and ditzy way is when it finally hit her like a truck, lead to her to actually repeat your name out loud through Eos

•The way Belle had said your name caused the Cunning hares, to look at Eos with a questioning look, that's when she said your full name shocking you and asking a typical airheaded question of if she was psychic

•That's when she exclaimed in an emotional voice how you hadn't changed a bit and then called you by your childhood nickname that only your siblings knew you by leaving you stunned

•That's when you said her name out loud, shocking the cunning hares, asking if that was you

•Of course the moment ended up being broken when you asked how he ended up inside a bangboo.

•Being used to how you acted, Belle took the question in stride and introduced who you were to everyone else there

•That's when she asked the Cunning hares if they could put the current mission on hold promising them a discount on this and future missions as long as you got back safely, she wanted to get you back to random play as soon as possible to see you in person and to tell Wise the good news

•They'd finally be reunited with their younger sibling after so long, and when you finally showed up on their front door, a long and tearful reunion took place

"The Dangers of Hollow Work", Cunning Hares x gnReader (Platonic), SFW, Angst no Comfort

c/w: contains mentions of blood, death, injury, and body mutation.

a/n: in chapter 2, sorry if it's ooc. fun game, even if it is a bit mindless. i like the animation a lot, can't wait for further updates and for more fics for it!!

To be trapped in a Hollow without a proxy was a death sentence. Depending on one’s aptitude, it would be a quick transformation after half an hour or so, or would be a slow, painful change. Your body would mutate, cells being created at an accelerated rate as the environment forced your body to change into something inhuman. New appendages, body parts being ripped apart as it struggled to keep up. Your psyche only knowing pain, for hours, before finally setting into a new shape, your DNA having been broken and reshaped.

Only pain and destruction filled your mind, mindless, memories of what you once were and those you knew washed away like a sandcastle on the beach.

-

The Cunning Hares were no stranger to traversing the Hollows, oftentimes enlisting the help of the legendary Phaethon. This time their leader, Nicole, had accepted a lower paying commission. One that seemed simple, quick in and out, so they skimped on the premium and gone with a cheaper proxy. Something perfect for you, still easing into working with them. A mistake that would cost them dearly.

It started off normally, following a Bangboo through the formerly human-inhabited city. It was more rudimentary than the premium one Phaethon used, without the syncing and high-tech they had, it couldn’t do the same as theirs could. As they delved deeper, the proxy reported a nearby disturbance, their tech couldn’t identify that it was a monster magnitudes higher than what they were being paid to fight.

They learned the hard way, with only a moment of notice before the monster sprang out, a head split open, revealing a mass of unstable energy. Green splitting their charcoal body. It was monstrous, forearms the size of entire car. It crashed through a wall, as if on a mission to kill them, and only them.

-

“Nicole! The proxy’s trying to tell us something!” Billy the Kid, an sentient AI, spoke out, kneeling as the Bangboo held out text, encrypted in case anyone apart from them got hold of this information. Nicole, the leader of the Cunning Hares, made her way over, a sense of unease as they continued along their mission. “It says…” She read the small text that was displayed on the Bangboo’s eyes.

“Something’s coming!” Anby spoke, rushing with blinding speed from her spot guarding the group to parrying a monster that smashed through the wall. It was a monster too strong for them to handle right now- or at least until they were being paid to.

“Fall back! We’ll do this commision later!” Nicole shouted, swinging her suitcase forward as she shot out a ball of energy, erupting as it began to pull the monster and anything nearby to its epicenter. “It won’t hold it for long, let’s go!”

You, Nicole, Billy, and Anby ran out, picking up the Bangboo and having it direct the group on the go. There were monsters on the way out, having to slow down every once in a while to combat them before making a break for it. “We better get a bonus for this!” Nicole shouted as the telltale screech of the monster echoed through the city.

Finally after seemingly forever, the Cunning Hares had reached the exit, a swirly mess of blue and purple, with a white bubbly outline was their way out of this mess.

“Trial by fire eh!” Billy joked, slowing down to your pace, his long legs easily making him the fastest out of the group. He helped keep you calm, someone who could make the best out of unfortunate circumstances.

“C’mon guys! Only a bit further left.” Nicole directed, someone emotionally sturdy, who had been the first of the group to meet you. Originally you’d been friends outside of this whole Hollows business, until the two of you learned that you’d shared this “hobby” together. She’d invited you to join the Cunning Hares, happy for one friend to meet her other friends.

The portal out got closer as they moved, yet the stomping of the monsters got arrived first. It landed from the air, with Billy saving you from being squashed by the several ton monster. He tossed you to Nicole, having her help right yourself as he unloaded bullets onto the monster. It didn’t do much but helped distract the monster for Anby to rush in.

“Say hello to my little friend.” She spoke in her monotone voice, seemingly to herself, as she unsheathed her blade and rocketed forward, slashing at the monster, sparks flying as electricity flowed through her blade.

Quickly they moved, hurrying to the exit as the monster was riddled with electricity coursing through their body, locking their joints and nerves, immobilizing them.

It seemed to be smooth sailing from there, with the adrenaline that had been coursing through your veins seemingly evaporating in seconds. A mistake, as you were not out of the woodworks just yet. A stray piece of debris on the ground made you trip, with a small yelp as you slipped onto the ground.

The monster recovered from their stun, now more ferocious than ever, they charged. Nicole and the others hadn’t seen you fall, caught up in keeping the monster busy and keeping the Bangboo safe. Once they had reached the portal and turned back to the monster, they’d seen you on the ground.

It was a shock, with Nicole nearly rushing forward to help you before being stopped by Anby. “The monster is too strong for us. It should’ve been incapacitated for 72.3% longer. We need to come back again.” “But we have to save them!” “We will all die if we do. We can come back, with Phaethon to aid us.” Nicole couldn’t bring herself to agree to what Anby was saying, it would basically be agreeing to abandon one of their own, even if for seemingly a short while. But she stopped protesting, letting herself be dragged out. Once she got to the outside world, she made a break for the video store, in search for the legendary Proxy’s help.

-

You lasted for half an hour against the monster. Running and dodging, clashing for a minute before making a break for it when you could. You knew the Cunning Hares would be back, but this was an enemy unlike anything they’d come up against previously, the only monster akin to them would’ve been the Dead End Butcher.

The monster had caught up, pulverizing your ribs with a single hit and leaving you concussed, falling down several floors. Your vision was blurry, the world felt like it was spinning. Pain, unbearable. Unable to move without the chance of nicking an artery or damaging an internal organ. Nothing to say of your spine having been shattered as you hit the ground.

You lay there for half an hour, your screams and cries rang out for thirteen minutes before, your voice failing on you. Before a groaning and inhuman screams replaced what was left.

-

The Cunning Hares had been able to take down the mysterious monster; what would usually call for celebration had to be postponed as they followed Phaethon deeper into the Hollow, searching for the last signal of human life. It had been seventeen minutes since the last ping. Phaethon warned them that what they would find would either be a corpse but the Cunning Hares refused to believe that, not wanting to part with you so early into your career, not when you had become integrated into the group.

Finally reaching the last known location, they found a puddle of blood, drying up, with no body. A monster nearby, with scraps of clothing still hanging on, yours.

They couldn't even leave with a body to bury.

🦇Hugo x Belle🦇Something About Sentimental Value

Clearly, Wise was asleep. As if she couldn’t assume from the current time, she could hear him snoring from the shop floor, thanks to the thin walls and apparently there being such thing as soundproofing in this building. At least he was a rather heavy sleeper. He wasn’t one to be disturbed by the vigorous computer work that Belle occasionally did during absurd hours, or the occasional nighttime stray that happened to wander into Random Play.

Not often did someone come through the doors at one in the morning seeking a movie to rent. Those who did often rented the more... questionable types of content, usually tapes intended to be watched in solitude. The look on their face when a tired young lady would come to the counter to check them out was quite often priceless, but Belle couldn’t care less what they were seeking out. She knew damn well the secrets kept within the store’s inventory. She was most certainly aware that such tapes were within their possession. And all she honestly cared about was getting paid.

The opportunity for these few and far in between transactions was why she left the doors unlocked at night, when many would assume they were closed. Open arms for the desperate to earn a few extra Dennies never hurt anyone. And in the position that their savings were in, those few extra Dennies were something that Wise and Belle could very well use.

A few weirdos walked through those doors, on occasion. Nothing she wasn’t already used to, though, given her eccentric dealings in the past.

For once, as a break away from the screen, Belle had temporarily retired the Bangboo for the night and was manning the front counter herself. All of this computer nonsense that she wished that she could pass off to Wise yet remained, but she was wide awake and it was better to use her time to get something done than to try and count on him to do something to some degree of success in the morning. Knowing him, he was probably going to nab some of the store’s stock and proceed to watch it for himself. Maybe she should start charging him a rental fee…

As she was skimming through a magazine out of complete and boredom, Belle heard the door bells ring as a customer walked into the shop. She peered over her magazine to get a glimpse of who had come seeking a tape at this hour, but she noticed that this visitor was most unusual. His profession, if one could call it that, wasn’t exactly that of someone you’d find so openly crawling around the store.

Being all too familiar with his slimy nature, there was no chance that he could be up to any good prowling around Random Play. Belle narrowed her eyes, and kept a sharp watch as the blonde-haired beast glanced over the shelves. He didn’t exactly seem to be browsing the tape selection with much intent; it was more as if he was standing by, idly waiting for something.  An opportunity, perhaps.

“…Can I help you find something?” Belle asked.

He turned to look at Belle with an eerily delighted gaze, as if he were seeking her attention more than a suitable tape for the night. She couldn’t help but stare into his silver and red eyes, though he made her tremble internally despite the brave mask she donned. Their meetings were, thankfully, few and far in between, but she knew him well enough to call him by name. And she knew more than enough about him to realize that he was up to no good.

“My dear, what do you think I’m here for?” he said, slipping a silver coin into his pocket.

Belle rolled her eyes. “Hugo, I swear if you start asking me for ‘no ordinary treasures,’ I’m going to see you out myself personally.”

“You know me all too well,” Hugo said, with his fangs protruding from his grin. “Way too well.”

“It’s kinda obvious,” Belle said, putting down her magazine. “You know, you aren’t really going to find much in Random Play. Just a bunch of videos that Wise only suggested we carry so he could watch himself.”

“Ah, but I find that rather hard to believe. This building also serves as your residence, does it not?”

“What gave that away? The freight train snoring upstairs?”

How she wished that she could be Wise right now, blissfully sleeping the night away fully unaware of Hugo’s presence. But no, she just had to be downstairs alone with him, along with some Bangboo, but they really didn’t count as company, especially when they were charging for the time being.

“Hence why I find it hard to believe that there is nothing of value here,” he said, resting his arms on the desk.

It was evident that he wasn’t exactly willing to leave empty handed with the way he was eyeing up Belle. He knew from pure intuition alone that behind the shelves and stacks of cheap movies for rental lied a goldmine of memories shared between Belle and Wise. Old miscellaneous souvenirs, remnants of projects that they had worked on together, and many other relics of their past had so little physical value, yet they meant a great deal to them in terms of sentimental value.

Unfortunately, those were precisely the type of “relics” that Hugo was seeking out.

“Do you really want some of our old crappy notebooks? Or maybe the wrapper that has been lodged in the couch cushion for maybe six years now?”

“There is no doubt that the memories your brother has shared with you are quite precious,” he said, gently lifting up her chin. “It’s almost enough to satisfy my cravings for a good, long while.”

“O-our notebooks? Enough for you? Do we truly matter that much in some underground market where our old nonsensical scribbles hold so much value?”

“Oh, dear, I believe you completely misunderstand me.”

He stroked the side of her face with his bare thumb, then slid his hand down the side of her neck.

“What I want is something that is so important, so valuable to your brother. Something of his that cannot even come close to the value of anything within this store. Something, or someone, who is irreplaceable to him…”

His hand was resting on the side of her neck. The way he rubbed his thumb across her skin was so eerily soothing, despite his claws being mere centimeters away from the major arteries in her neck. Belle couldn’t manage to pull herself, even with the knowledge that Hugo’s soft touch was greatly contradicted by the pain she knew that he could inflict upon her.

“D-do you want me? Do you want to take me back to your shady hideout, or whatever?” she asked.

“I couldn’t bear to cause such distress to a beautiful lady,” he said, taking hold of her hand and giving it a gentle kiss. “But it still must be known one way or another that I lay claim to you.”

He glared up at her and sank his fangs into the top of her hand. Belle’s jaw clenched tightly, rendering her unable to call for help. She couldn’t understand why she felt so reluctant to cry out, but perhaps it was simply the habit of not causing too much of a ruckus to those resting in the building. Hugo released her hand and she pulled back it, watching a small amount of blood trickle down her hand.

Some dripped onto the counter. It was something that she would have to remember to clean up before Wise made his way down the steps in the morning.

The pensiveness and anxiety in her eyes seemed to be entertaining Hugo greatly, and the sight of the crimson red staining her hands only drove him even more feral. With a fresh, open wound on her hand, Belle was practically presenting herself as a slab of steak to a rabid predator driven mad by hunger.

With her hand still trembling from the sting, she attempted to use her other hand to wipe off the blood, but could hardly manage as she winced in pain. The palm of her other hand became stained as well, creating an even greater mess than the one she started out with.

“Darling, your hands don’t deserve to be sullied with blood, whether it be yours or mine,” he said, once more offering his hand. “Allow me to…offer my assistance and clean you up.”

Belle, still holding her sore hand, wasn’t sure the best course of action to take. He clearly was on the hunt, and not for treasure, but Belle feared the consequences should she excuse herself from such a customer of hers. Reluctantly, she placed the palm of her hand into his, and as promised, he licked the blood clean from her hand. The only trace of injury now where the two fang marks.

“So sweet,” he said, holding back the temptation to bite once more. “So, so sweet, fitting for such a sweet lady…”

Belle was stunned into silence, having her hand gently held by this unfortunately attractive man and having her thoughts swayed by this quite literal sweet talking. It was all around a weird situation, for someone harboring such a strong desire to feast on her blood specifically. Given her history of cooperating with Thirens, the strange foes she had faced, and so on it certainly wasn’t the most unusual thing she had encountered.

“Just…say you’re starving, or something,” Belle finally muttered.

“That is quite the animalistic way to put it, is it not?”

“The sides of your mouth are already stained with blood. You’ve done more than plenty to make yourself look like a beast.”

“Ah…how…improper of me,” he said, wiping off his mouth with the back of his hand. Hugo placed her hand gently down onto the table, surprisingly considerate of the fact that it was rather sore. “But you just taste… far, far too good.”

Wise continued snoring loudly from the upstairs. From the sound of things, there was absolutely no chance of him waking up to such a deplorable sight should Belle agree to relieve some of Hugo’s cravings. She looked back and forth between her pricked hand and Hugo’s pleading eyes, as if she was debating her answer to his silent pleas to indulge himself.

All hell would break loose, should he cause Belle to die. Surely, he had to be smart enough to leave her in a somewhat stable condition. Belle clenched her fist and looked away from him, shamefully charmed. He had such gentle eyes for a predator…for someone that could bite her throat out if she made one wrong move.

“Oh, dear,” Hugo said, walking behind the counter. “No need to be so shy.”

Belle looked up to see him looming behind her. He placed his hand on her neck, gently pulling aside the collar of her shirt to further expose the bare skin of her neck and shoulder. The contrast of his warm fingers and cold rings sent a tinge through her body with every inch he stroked. She tried to relax, taking deep breaths and attempting to calm her heart rate so she wouldn’t be drained as rapidly. But Hugo’s touch was teasing the entirety of her body and she almost wanted to pull him down into her neck just to get it over with.

Belle looked down to the side, allowing her hair to fall out of the way for easier access to her neck. She didn’t utter a single word, but with her flesh exposed in such a way, Hugo took it as an invitation to feast on her blood. She tried to keep her hands steady on the desk and repress any signs of nervousness, but it was rather hard when her palms were becoming uncomfortably sweaty.

She could still see his shadow looming over her as he leaned down into her neck. Belle wanted to close her eyes and brace herself for the pain, but she just couldn’t. Her entire body felt frozen stiff with the force of Hugo pinning her against the desk, rendering her immobile with her weight if not with her nerves.

Hugo nuzzled further into the side of her neck, then licked it slowly. Belle’s whole body cringed from the feeling of his cold saliva, but she held herself tense in place. Should she attempt to instinctively back up, she would only find herself further pressed against his body.

Not like she had the option of going anywhere anyways. Hugo had her hands pinned to the counter, further stinging the one he had nibbled on prior. Belle had come to hardly notice this pain as she was blinded by the surge of adrenaline. His hold was firm, yet he was taking this as a prime opportunity to indulge in the sensation of her fingers for himself.

“Such a beautiful lady,” he whispered. “I almost feel guilty for doing this to you.”

Giving no time for Belle to counteract, he sunk his fangs into the side of her neck. She bit her tongue and tensed up her hand, but the growing tension in her body only made it feel worse. Belle would have to relax if she still had the goal of surviving this encounter. She tried taking a deep breath, but she felt that if she inhaled too much, her windpipe would, in turn, be punctured by Hugo’s fangs.

Belle was very rapidly becoming lightheaded. She was losing strength in her legs and she felt like she could collapse at any moment. Just how much was he planning to take from her? Belle was starting to wish that she had suggested him feasting off of her brother, but Hugo seemed especially insistent on her being his prey for the evening.

The tension in her body eased as her body lost the willpower to resist. Belle was becoming tired, and combined with her exhaustion from being up into the late hours of the night, she was doomed to pass out sooner than later. At least she wouldn’t collapse face forward into the counter, as Hugo kept a firm grip on her body preventing her from falling. If only she could muster up the strength to tell him that her body wasn’t as abundant with blood as he hoped so.

Tired. So…very tired.

Belle’s eyes became heavy, and she hardly had the strength left to fight to keep them open.

After a few minutes that felt like grueling hours passing by Hugo finally released his fangs from her neck and loosened his grip on her body. Despite this, Belle still couldn’t quite move with muscles still stiff from anxiety yet weak from hemorrhaging, but she at least could muster a deep breath.

“Such a good girl for your first time, dear,” he said, giving her a gentle kiss on the neck where her wounds were.

As if that would make it any better.

Well maybe it did, but just by a little.

Belle slowly turned her head around to see him with a considerable amount of blood on his face. Not the least bit surprising, but still a shocking contrast to the gentleman who was serenading her moments prior.

“You uh, have a little something on your face,” she managed to mutter.

“Ah, apologies for my lack of manners. Worry not about me, as I believe that it is best that your concerns lie within yourself,” he said. “Rest your weary body and allow me to carry you to your quarters.”

Hugo was being surprisingly considerate for someone who had just welcomed himself to feast on her like that. Belle was quite lightheaded and his offer was quite tempting, but she still had greater concerns and a shred of dignity left.

“But what about the shop? I still need to lock it up.”

“Do not concern yourself one bit,” he said with a wink. “A thief knows his way around locks quite well.”

Belle was too tired to be concerned with his methods and motives, so she allowed him to carry her up the stairs into the bed. Wise was still fast asleep as he had been throughout the entirety of the night, completely ignorant of his sister becoming a meal just moments prior. Hugo nudged her door open gently and laid Belle down on her bed with a surprising amount of care. He carefully rested her head on her pillow and pulled her blanket over her body before closing the door and silently making his departure.

The following morning, Belle slept in for quite a long time. Much longer than Wise, which was almost unheard of. She awoke with her neck feeling quite sore, and so she made her way to the bathroom to observe the damage. The wound was surprisingly clean; he must’ve taken it upon himself to clean her of blood. Despite this, the presence of the bite wound was still rather obvious.

Belle wrapped it in some gauze and pulled her shirt up further, hoping that Wise wouldn’t look too hard or care enough to mention. She held onto the banister tightly as she walked down the stairs as she was still feeling lightheaded and rather dizzy.

“Belle,” Wise said as soon as he caught a glimpse of her, “did something happen last night?”

What did he mean something? What could he have possibly heard?

“W-What do you mean?”

“There’s a little bit of blood on the counter. I was worried that you had gotten hurt.”

Crap. She had completely forgotten about the wound on her hand. The blood staining the counter, the sheer obviousness of its location, everything about it altogether. And when she realized this, she once more became conscious of the stinging that lingered in her hand.

“Uh, nothing!” she said, covering her hands as best as she could with her sleeves. “Nothing at all. Just got a nasty papercut digging through some old crap. Nothing bad. I promise.”

Wise looked at her as if he didn’t believe her story one bit.

She didn’t believe herself, either. Not with the pain as a result of that handsome devil feasting on her last night.

Forgiveness

I FINALLY GOT LYCAON!

Von Lycaon x Female Reader

This was a bad idea, you didn't know that this hollow had so many ethereal to fight, but you were too dumb enough to not follow Lycaon's orders since he knew you couldn't keep your stamina like he and the others can

You just wanted to prove that you could keep up with the others, you wanted to prove yourself worthy for the sake of yourself, to protect yourself but man you screwed up, you should've listened to Lycaon and now your in big problem big time

You already fought four ethereals already but more were coming by your sides, if you stayed in this hollow for any longer then you were surely going to turn yourself into a ethereal yourself and you didn't want that

'Come on Name, keep going' You thought, it's not like you could run anywhere anyways or else you would be chased down and find more ethereals in your path

was anyone going to save you, was anyone going to notice you left at all? You mind ran with thoughts that wouldn't go away as you dodged the creatures attacks as you already had cuts and bruises

After two more, you defeated every one of them. you were stuffed, you wanted to lay down for a bit but if you stayed in the hollow any longer than you should've been you'll turn so you kept going

You didn't know how to get out so you walked around the abandoned train station, it was just like how Corin got lost in the hollow one but she got saved so maybe you'll be saved to.. right?

You were now running away from any other creature that might be lurking in the area, so you decided to find somewhere to hide to rest

You found an abandoned train cart, which had a small hole you could fit through, you climbed through as it was quite dark but there was enough room for you to rest for now

You just hope someone, anyone would come looking for you, your eyes decided to drift close on their own, maybe a little nap won't hurt right, you couldn't tell there that you have a big cut on your forehead as well as some cuts along your legs and arms from the ethereals

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

It has been twenty minutes, where have you gone? Lycaon have been trying to find you but couldn't find you anywhere, so he decided to ask some people around town if they have seen anyone that has your descripted details but then instantly remembered that he could ask one of the proxy's to help find you

You might of went into a hollow, or in a accident or maybe got terribly hurt.. All of them were true and he never knew

he instantly went to the video store to belle, he walked up to belle asking for help

"You lost Name? Are you sure she went into the hollow?" Belle asked, Lycaon nodded "It seems that I went too hard on her, I think she went into the hollow to prove herself that she was worthy like me and the other maids" He explained, belle lead Lycaon to the back where it said staff only as they went to find you

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

Lycaon was now in the hollow, it seemed that belle said you were staying in one place, where you dead? No you can't be.

"Master proxy, where to now?" Lycaon asked through the communicator, "Take a left here and keep going straight, It seems she's stuck in one place?" Belle was confused

Lycaon followed Belle's orders as he was met with a train cart, a train cart? why would you be here of all places and how long were you there for?

"It seems she's in a train cart, try looking in each one of them" Belle said as Lycaon started to look in each one of them until he was met with a small hole in the train cart, "I think she's in there, She's right in front of us” Belle said

How is he going to get you, he couldn't possibly fit through, "Master Proxy is there any chance you can fit through there?" He asked the bangboo which Belle was connected to

"Yeah I'm pretty sure I can, hold on a second" The scarf wearing bangboo squeezed through the hole as she couldn't see anything but darkness but she could see a silhouette of a person, she walked up to the person to see it was you

"Lycaon, I found her!" Belle yelled from the other side, "Is she awake?" Lycaon asked

"No, It doesn't seem that she is are awake, Let me-" Belle paused as she saw the cut on your forehead with dry blood on your face, she could also see the cuts and bruises on your arms and legs

"What's wrong Master Proxy?" Lycaon worriedly asked, "She's badly injured, We need to get her out of here Asap" Belle's words worried Lycaon

"try waking her up, she's a light sleeper" Lycaon suggested as the bangboo shook you awake, she could see you opening your eyes slowly

"Mm?" You were fully awake, looking around the see a scarf wearing bangboo near your leg, you blinked a few times as you scatted backwards as you bumped your head "Ow!" You shouted, holding on your head from the impact

"Woah, your okay, I'm here to get you out of here. Lycaon is just on the other side, As soon as we get you out of this hollow you'll need treatment for your injuries" The bangboo said trying to calm you down

"Master Proxy is she awake?" You could hear Lycaon on the other side, you were scared that you were in trouble but you needed to get out as soon as possible so you nodded towards the bangboo

The bangboo insisted that you should go first. Squeezing through the hole was quite tough then the first time but you simply made it through, you were met with metal steel legs as you were lifted up by the one and only Lycaon, your boss

He was looking at your bad injuries, his gloved paws were on your cheeks softly, he moved some of your hair out of the way to see that the injury was bad and that he could see some dirt on it

"Master Proxy, We need to get out of here. Tell me where to go and I’ll follow” Lycaon then picked you up bridle style as you seemed tired

"Hang on, we're going to get you out of here as soon as possible, try to stay awake" Lycaon softly spoke as he ran after the bangboo who was leading to the hollow exit

"I'm sorry.. I thought I could mange on my own, I just wanted to prove you that I could keep up" You spoke, Lycaon spoke "You're lucky I found you in time, I'm just glad that you're alive" He gently spoke

Its been a while since you were out of the hollow, you were now in bed resting as Lycaon stayed by your side making sure you weren't feel ill or anything else. You wounds were treated, bandages were on your arms and legs as well as on your forehead.

Lycaon hasn't said a word as you thought he was angry at you.. "I'm sorry Mr Lycaon, if you're mad at me, I'm really sorry. I won't do it again" You spoke up, but instantly was stopped by his hand on your head, it seems that he was gently petting you

"I'm not mad, I'm just upset at myself for going hard on you. I should be the one to say sorry" Lycaon spoke which made you confused to why he was the one at fault

You bit your lip nervously as you said he wasn't his fault, Lycaon insisted that you should rest after being in the hollow for quite some time "Rest now dear. You look tired, don't worry I'll be here when you wake up" Lycaon said

You nodded as you were quite tired, you slowly closed your eyes. Feeling a sense of presence near your forehead, feeling a gentle kiss on your forehead as you heard a gentle "Goodnight, Love"

you then slowly drifted off to sleep peacefully, feeling safe and loved.

FINALLY I FINISHED!
