#clean master – cheetah

[catchyhuh]

Building off of camping… if they were to holiday/vacation, yknow, outside of their usual “work” trips (which tend to be basically vacations anyway) how do they go about it? *Will* they holiday? Or are they dragging the others around on a madcap mission? …Where do they visit? How do they pack? What are they like at the airport?

…That’s a lot of questions. Please please feel free to pick and choose, or ignore this entirely if it doesn’t tickle your fancy, or if you’ve answered something similar already that— for some reason— I cannot remember right now!

you’re right that IS a lot!! but as you’ve noticed by now i fucking LOVE talking so i’m absolutely DELIGHTED that it’s a lot!!!

i briefly hit vacation spots they’d like a while back, but in terms of vacation PREPPING and the flights…

lupin:

lupin will call a weekend trip to some dead old thief buddy’s place he was asked to clean out a “vacation.” he loves this stuff.

packing though? eeehhh

it’s rough, because he despises packing (ironically, since he loves planning out significantly more complex things like heisting and physics for ziplines and shit) because there’s always one freakish scenario he forgot to account for JUST BECAUSE he’s traveling. he got pollen up his nose once and didn’t have any antihistamines anywhere in his luggage. anywhere. he brought stuff for nausea (which none of them even get on a BOAT, much less a plane!) he brought stuff for muscle cramps, for excessive bleeding, for swimmer’s ear, fucking everything but stuff to kill that runny nose. hell on earth

waaay too lax at the airport. way too lax. terrifyingly so. they’ll be calling out his gate, his ROW, and he’ll just casually stroll along. he always just barely manages to make it. but if the others are even one step behind him… eeeehhh…

usually whoever he’s traveling with decides to just wait by the gate like normal people do. if the plane leaves without him then thank god, right

however, traveling with lupin has one major advantage, the advantage that’s really the main reason the others will bother standing him falling asleep on them barely an hour into the flight-- sneaking stuff past tsa. don’t ask him how. he’ll get even sneakier about it if you ask how

jigen:

half-asleep the entire duration of waiting for the flight, wide awake during the seven hour process. nothing cures him of this problem, nothing. he’s doomed to live it forever

doesn’t mean he can’t pretend to be asleep so the others don’t bother him though!

window seat guy, not because he needs to see the view that bad or anything, but because he knows when he’s planting his ass down he’s not moving unless some higher power wills it. and he doesn’t want people pushing past HIS legs all day

packing for jigen is just. so simple. he only ever has like 5 suits at a time, total, his hat, shoes, all that’s ON his person as they’re leaving, really all he has to do is grab a hairbrush, cologne, and a toothbrush. he just uses goemon’s toothpaste for convenience’s sake anyway

however, he actively enjoys packing for the show it gives him. he’ll sit on the couch and watch lupin and fujiko move from room to room mumbling to themselves so they don’t forget whatever item is currently on their mind. it’s like that scene in clue where they’re all running through the rooms

none of this is just THAT serious to him! it’s just not! calm down you guys! actually, no, don’t. it’s kind of funny. look, he’s gonna forget his razor again, watch

fujiko:

fujiko packs like she intends to live on the plane. she packs like she’s anticipating crashing in the middle of the pacific on some uncharted island and having to live there for the next 15 years

and she’s a fucking tetris master with the way she packs her bags. however, this also means the cute hot pink cheetah print suitcase that she’s had since 2002 roughly weighs as much as a small palette of cinder blocks. but nobody tries to swipe her luggage because of it!

she’s never late for a flight! never ever! why try to cram in shit before the actual exciting part of getting to the destination, right? why stress over the mediocre coffee she can get on the other side of the globe, cheaper for that matter, when she can just sit and fucking relax. because for her, the vacation begins the minute she’s on the plane and secure she’s heading to her destination

which means nothing but first class. all the time. undebatable. she’s just straight up not going otherwise. you’re going to make fujiko mine sit squished between two random strangers? who don't have the decency to use earbuds?? C’MON NOW

she tends to rack up quite a bill every time the flight attendants come by with the little snack and drink carts and stuff. it would be a real problem if the name on her ticket wasn’t fake

goemon:

airport dad shit going on here to a degree no sane person would ever conceive

his line of thinking is “what if the plane is early” and despite the numerous explanations of “then they just wait” he seems CONVINCED they’ll be ready to leave without him

he also seems to be the only one with full awareness that they are. internationally wanted criminals. hacking the no-fly list to get through is one thing, but are the others not concerned about being recognized as, again, internationally wanted criminals??

packing for goemon is even SIMPLER than jigen. but there’s a certain stressor that comes with it. that’s a lot of metal to deal with at security. why am i even typing all this they already animated it

so, physically, the easiest packing job! emotionally, pretty damn taxing. he thinks lupin’s just lying when he says he just “can’t find a good way to hide it.” he knows the fucker is giggling watching him stand there silently sweating waiting for his ONE OF A KIND, HIGHLY VALUABLE, BORDERLINE MAGIC SWORD

but yeah otherwise he’s chill with vacations :) he doesn’t exactly go out of his way to plan them but yeah he’ll follow along :)

zenigata:

you already know he’s fighting the idea of a vacation, i already know he’s fighting the idea of a vacation, but we’re forcing him to go on one so we can study the scientific results

if we’re making him vacation with like. yata. or by some miracle the gang he is unfortunately the one who ends up carrying half the shit. not a big deal with yata! not a big deal with “sorry sir, my arm’s just asleep from the plane ride, could you hold my bag for a minute?” vs “well since you’re already standing by the little suitcase conveyor belt it wouldn’t KILL you to grab my little suitcase, right, pops? and maybe fujiko’s. you know how she gets. and maybe jigen’s. not goemon’s though he gets picky about that,”

cannot sit through a flight without passing the hell out. yet another point backed up in canon. somebody has to wake him up or he just won’t even get off the plane

he gets progressively more and more peeved with each minor instance with tsa and when the others give him a wary look he’s standing there, arms crossed like no no. they’re doing their job. and then the agent finds yet another pair of handcuffs and just throws them out and zenigata clenches his hands a bit tighter

[the-whispers-of-death]

The Ryobi family members( some not by blood)

Gordy,

47.

6'1

One of Cairo's oldest friends, he has been by Cairo's side since they were in their twenties. He is by far the most loyal of my ocs. Perla, Shoko and Sayaka call him Uncle because Gordy might as well be Cairo's brother even if they aren't related. He has a 12 year old son named Davis who constantly follows Shoko around and will. He thinks Perla is scary and Sayaka is too bubbly in his eyes. Shoko is quiet and comforting to him. Gordy is an asshole. He's like Buford from Phineas and Ferb. Still a bully but one who joins in on the fun. Nicknamed the greatest knife thrower in Rubrum

Pickles

Idiot, stoner vampire boy. This man didn't know salmonella existed until he was 29, got so high he thought he had 4 arms and thought that lions and cheetah were the same animal until he was 17. Not a single thought behind his eyes. He means well but God damn is he stupid. Perla abuses his stupidity in her favor. He thinks with his fists not his brain

32.

5'11

Mizuki Ryobi

Cairo's Niece! She wanted to work for him for a change of pace from her old job as a hit woman in Birmingham.

27.

5'2

As bubbly as a girl can be when her job is to kidnap or kill people for her uncle. Which is extremely bubbly

Lets Sayaka decorate her weapons

Is currently getting back into the hobby of breakdancing she had in her teen years

Nomé & Mayzie Blue. Old ass, Belarusian lesbian couple who cleans up all the dead bodies and blood and guts and whatnot

66 and 67

Nomé is 5'5 and Mayzie is 5'8

Nomé is extremely sweet and kind and makes sure there's no trace of death. Bleach and peroxide on lock. Mayzie disposes of the body with a talent that Cairo has never seen. She makes it look like the person never existed. Gets rid of any records that exist too. They helped Cairo fake his death one time too. Referred as Grammy and Granma

Casher

32

5'11

You won't see him much but you'll see him riding around South Detroit trying to pick up girls

Works in his garage provided by Cairo

Makes a lot a vehicles. The biggest fan of Alina and her car work. Total fan boy

Has a sick ass motorcycle named Junie

Has a smoking problem from his father

Kind of a flirt and a bop as the kids would say

Ife Ryobi(Cairo's cousin)

Torturer

Gets a sick kick out of her job

Her parents new what she would do in life when they saw her slowly dissecting her dolls and random frogs she'd find with a smile

Takes her time with it. She has mastered the art of patience and she uses that art to inflict pain on others for information

Mutually beneficial

Cairo gets the information he needs

Ife gets the time of her life

Makes great food because she takes her time

-🔮

Death when I read that Gordy is loyal: Is Gordy single, perhaps? I'm great with kids. My adopted son turned out so well despite me being high for most of his childhood.

(That's a whole thing, it's complicated and for the most part he was just struggling with not relapsing.)

Anyways, I love the fact that Gordy is one of Cairo's oldest friends. We love a long-lasting friendship.

I just need to know if Pickles found out that salmonella existed in like a casual, someone talking about how they got salmonella once type of thing or if he found out by getting salmonella. Also, love the fact that Perla uses Pickles' stupidity in her favor.

Mizuki being bubbly despite her job is queen behavior and we love that for her. Love the fact that she lets Sayaka decorate her weapons.

Nomé and Mayzie seem like they're couple goals. They give me vibes of being that old lesbian couple the younger lesbians look up to. Love how talented they are at disposing bodies.

I love that the first thing you said about Casher was that he rides around South Detroit trying to pick up girls. I wonder how good he is at it or if he fails utterly.

I feel like Death and Ife would be friends because in his first iteration, Death was friends with a man who is a torturer like Ife. Anyways, I love that she takes her time with torturing someone because it's truly an art.

"A creature such as you... saving yourself for marriage? Fuhahaha, don't make me laugh! Pray tell, was this group of friends of the imaginary sort? I have yet to see you attract so much as Teruteru." He tried his best to focus on the task at hand, sweeping as far away from the other as he could, until the mechanic picked to start on the desk right next to where he was sweeping. Of course he would...

"Stand back fiend! My evil aura will consume you soon enough. Not that I would care if you were devoured right in front of me." It seemed the pinkette had no intention of giving him space though, so he began to move to a less crowded area. "Ah yes... calling one a dicklord is considered polite." He sure hadn't forgotten.

As he made he was around the other, trying his best to ignore him, Kazuichi suddenly sprayed him with the cleaning solution. He just barely managed to bring his arms up to cover his eyes in time, flinching despite himself. "That was low, even for you." Anger and hurt warred within his features, as memories of him being bullied by other students rose within him, unbidden. As if he could sense his master's sudden change in mood, a large ball python emerged from inside his robes, hissing. The snake uncoiled, and Gundham let him slither onto one one of the desks. Even if the breeder didn't get mad, his pet was furious. "It would seem Nagini is ready for dinner. I suggest you complete your quest with the speed of a cheetah, lest he decide to consume you as his main course. Kehehehe..."

“H-HEY! Being horny and looking for romance are two different things!! I-I’m not THAT horny!!” The mechanic rose up from his chair indignantly. “A-and I’ll have you know, lots of girls came on to me when I used to hang out with my old friend group!! I just turned them down because… I-I’m uh, I’m… s-saving myself… for marriage… or something…” Shaking his head, he pointed at the other accusingly. “I bet you just never had chicks flocking towards you!! ……Not the human kind of chicks, anyway. You definitely get the bird kind… Damn it, talking to you seriously pisses me off.”

He took a spray bottle and a towel to start wiping the desks, but instead of going to the opposite side of the room, he went to clean the desk right beside the other, just to spite him. “I don’t take orders from you. I’ll clean wherever I want to clean, you prick,” he muttered, spraying water on the desk before beginning to wipe. “I called you stingy ‘cause you made a big deal out of it, not because you didn’t have the seeds — and I was polite! I was just asking if you had some and then you started sassing me!!” That’s probably not what happened, but whatever. He sort of… doesn’t remember what he said…

…Oh yeah, he called the other a dicklord.

An idea occurred to him, though, and he abandoned his thinking and cleaning to glance at the other instead. “…You know how you always say you got a poisonous touch or something?” He couldn’t help but smirk mischievously, holding up both the bottle and the towel in the other’s direction, then spraying at him. “There, since you need a hand with that! Cleaned the poison off for you completely. You’re welcome.”

[tragedyofdevotion]

This request just radiates crack energy. Imagine Jamil dating his s/o a lazy bum who is always hungry, sleepy, and loves telling bad jokes and puns. But as soon as she's given a task (e.g. cleaning, cooking), she becomes a master at the task. She also has gorilla strength and cheetah speed. Apologies for this specific and weird request.

“Jamil~~~I am bored~~~

Let’s go sleep together. I found a new nap spot in the courtyard. You will be surprised to see it because it is a place neither Leona-senpai nor Silver-senpai has found. Or…Do you want to go to Sam’s store. I heard there is a new candy brand there.”

You hugged your boyfriend from behind, or more like clung to him like a koala.

You are at Scarabia's, bothering Jamil who is preparing dinner for Kalim. As always, he is busy with all his work. Although you understand his duties as Kalim's caretaker and vice dorm leader, you wanted him to pay attention to you a little. You two didn’t have a real date for like 2 months.

“Y/n, you know I have work to do, don’t you? If you are bored, why don’t you go play together with others for a while?”

“Humph! Jamil Viper- senpai! You think I am a 5-year old? I know now! If you finish your work earlier, will you spend time with me? Then, off I go!”

Jamil sighed to himself, preparing himself for the mess you are about to made.

But still it is a bit weird that you left quickly. Did you have something important to do today? Normally, you wouldn’t leave even if he kicked you out.

….

About half an hour later, you came back, both hands full of snacks.

“Look! Kalim gave me coconut juice and some cookies. And I remembered you haven’t eaten lunch today and brought it to you. Here have some.”

“Thank you, y/n.” Jamil smiled at you but unlike usual his smile was a little weak. Maybe he is a little tired. You remembered Kalim gave you some candies, too. Maybe Jamil will like it.

“Jamil-senpai,” you said, taking the candies out of your pocket, “Here, candies, for you. Kalim gave it to me.”

Jamil stopped slicing the tomatoes, and looked up at you.

“Y/n, didn’t you tell me that you are going to help my work. Then why are you here?” Jamil asked, looking teasingly at you.

At that, you replied with a smug face. “You will be surprised to know that it’s all done! Kalim’s room, your room and the dorm lounge, they are all sparkling. And Kalim gave me those snacks as thanks. What do you think? Did I do great? I am a good girl, right? Then let’s go and sleep. I am sleepy from all the work.”

“But y/n, you just woke up from your afternoon nap only about an hour ago.”

“Does it matter? I want to sleep with you NOW! Isn’t it alright? All your work is done, too.”

Since he seemed so reluctant on your idea, you used your final weapon, which is looking at him with puppy eyes.

“Fine, but I won’t sleep, ok? I will be reading beside you.”

“Deal! I am happy if I can cuddle you. You are my favorite body pillow after all.”

NOTE: This is my first time writing for requests. So, I don't know if I did it right.😖 And I hope you don't mind that this became a scenario.😵‍💫 I also know that I missed a lot of facts from the request. But I started writing and there was no place to add those in this scenario. Sorry about that 😐😓

Thank you so much for the tag Dia! 🥰 @monarchberrysblog

Do you make your bed?

Honestly, no. I have a lot of pillows, so I only put the important ones in place and decorative ones there when I'm cleaning or having someone over.

Favourite number?

23! It's my birth date and I just love the way it looks.

What's your job?

I don't have one right now because I am a student! But I do art commissions sometimes!

If you could go back to school, would you?

I'm technically still in school! 🫨 I'm definitely getting my masters, though. Maybe even a doctorate.

Can you parallel park?

Yep! My dad worked with me on that every time we practiced driving, and I have to do it constantly now.

Do you think aliens are real?

Yeah! Knowing that there's more than just the Milky Way and we don't even know everything about the Milky Way, there's no way it's just us here. Maybe they don't want to be called aliens though.....

Can you drive a manual car?

No, but I could probably drive one.

What's your guilty pleasure?

Nothing really because I live like Larry. But! I guess indulging in a milkshake or soda during the week because I have no self-control when it comes to sweets. I need to be more healthy during the week.

Tattoos?

Nope! I don't think my skin can take it.

Favourite color?

Pink! And maybe sage green! And yellow....There's too many choices.

Favourite type of music?

I listen to everything, but I think I frequent hip-hop and pop the most. But I love BTS, Tinashe, and Meg Thee Stallion. But honestly, I have my favorite songs in each genre.

Any phobias?

Not that I can think of??? I really dislike roaches, though.

Absolutely. Talking through thoughts, interviews, talk shows, The Office-like camera stares, when something crazy happens on my phone screen. The whole works.

The Spongebob Movie, The Spider-Verse movies (LOVE LOVE LOVE), The Bring It movies for nostalgia's sake (my cousin replayed them like crazy), The Cheetah Girls movies, Bratz movies...I think that's it???

Sweet sweet coffee or really fruity tea. Like I'm talking caramel macchiatos, caramel frappes, mocha frappes, fruity bubble tea, and arnold palmers.

First thing you wanted to be growing up?

The US's first woman president or America's Next Top Model. One of these is still possible.....

Reblog to help others master mercury retrograde!

Pile 1: Cheetah 🐆

Pile 1 is for the people who are most comfortable in situations where they are in control. They thrive in their own world while feeling lost when they are outside of it. One major theme of this Mercury retrograde will be your relationships with others. Your connection to others, whether it be friendships, business partners, relationships or marriage will be affected. Any major issues or tensions from the past that you or they may have swept under the rug will be brought to the light. You must ask yourself: Am I feeling disconnected from any people in my life? Am I growing away from limiting relationships? Are my relationships an even push and pull? Are the people in my life bringing value to me? Mercury retrograde is here show you that you have been living in an illusion in some of your personal relationships. No more time for empty conversations or entertaining people that are not on the same vibration as you; this is a time of evolution and transformation.

We are picking on 2 types of energies:

1. Some people who need a person as a reason for them to grow, because they don't think they deserve to be their own priority. You have to do things in life for yourself, if you choose to heal for someone so that you can have a better relationship with them won't work. You have to do it for yourself because you are worthy enough to be the reason and you care about yourself enough. Waiting for someone to guess what you're going through and come and save you from your mind will make you lose hope. 2. Some people who give up human interaction and just isolate. You need to be more open and interact with people, don't give up as soon as something doesn't go the way you planned. Some things require time to grow especially when it comes to relationships/friendships. Don't be afraid to ask for help. Don't choose to isolate yourself and let others' emotions, opinions about you stop you from all the beautiful things that you are capable of achieving in this lifetime.

You have the power to change. Don’t dwell on the past or on what could have been. Look forward and keep going; it’s not over yet. Just because some people may leave your life, doesn’t make your life any less fulfilling. Life continues and you are being given the opportunity to grow, experience new things, and evolve. After it is all said and done, you will realize that the people that have left your life brought little or no value to you at all. You are not meant to be a follower in this lifetime; you are a leader, a visionary, an artist, and a dreamer. Your Spiritual Team wants you to know that you are protected, divinely guided and it's safe for you to share your art/ideas & yourself with the world. All you have to do is to gather the courage to pave a new path for yourself and trust your visions before they become reality. Don’t look for outside validation for your work or creative projects, allow them to just exist. When you allow the negative Nancies and keyboard critics to impact your self-worth, it takes the joy out of creating. A major piece of advice is to be bold during this mercury retrograde. Follow your heart and emotions and listen to what your gut is telling you about the people in your life. Avoid being reckless, but show the world what you’re made of!

Pile 2: Bee 🐝

Pile 2 is for the people who are sometimes so trusting in their spirituality that they forget to also be practical. This mercury retrograde will show you the importance of having practicality & reality instead of just having your head in the clouds. This retrograde will force you to make more effort to move towards your goals and the more practical steps you can take, the better. It’s time to find an inner balance between your dreams and your responsibilities. Taking responsibilities means cleaning up your messes and making changes so that it does not happen again, not just hoping everything will just magically sort itself out. This mercury retrograde may also affect your 2nd house of personal finance and possessions. Think about your relationship with money; Are your thoughts and actions around money empowering or disempowering you? Do you use money as an excuse to avoid doing something? Abundance comes through gratitude, being appreciative of what you already have. Don't be fixated on the idea that rewards only come in the form of money, thinking like this will only cause you to miss the beautiful gifts that life will be offering you. You might have a feeling that your purpose is to help others and guide them, but you sacrifice so much of your time, energy, resources for others that you ignore your own needs. You are for sure the person who helps everyone and is solving their problems. However, the only thing you are doing is burdening yourself by carrying their unresolved issues and also stopping them from learning the lessons they need to learn in order to grow in this lifetime. You are being asked to look after your well-being before anyone else’s. Spirt is thanking you for being so caring but now it's time for you to relax, celebrate, and allow yourself to reap the rewards for all your positive actions and intention. Also, it is important to listen openly and respectfully to people who have different beliefs than you, open communication can start real change.

In order to get the best out of this mercury retrograde, meditate as much as possible. Meditate for relaxation, for answers and for guidance. If you are able to find the perfect balance between spirituality, positivity and practicality, you will leave mercury retrograde with new love opportunities, abundance and happiness. There are major themes of wealth, abundance and new relationships in your life. People who have chosen this pile have a desire for the finer things in life and want the best of the best; Venusian energy. If you can believe it, you can achieve it. Some opportunities you are about to be given will happen once in a lifetime, but make sure you are taking action to make it happen and not just wishing on a star.

Pile 3: Dolphin 🐬

Pile 3 is for the people who live in a more Neptunian way of life. You are imaginative, live heavily in your subconscious and fantasy world. This mercury retrograde is going to force you to grow and heal your past wounds at a rapid pace. You are being called to let go of the past. That time is over. Whatever you have been clinging on to - good or bad - is long gone. The past energy is weighing you down and it is time to break free of it. You are currently living in a state of complacency. There is lots of self-neglect and dietary imbalance in this pile. Procrastinating and choosing to live in a dream world instead of dealing with the reality of your situation. You are holding yourself back and this retrograde will shake your world until you are born again. You will go through major regeneration: a rebirth. This mercury retrograde practice being present and calling your energy back into the here and now. Music is going to be very influential in your healing; it will be a safe space for you to process your thoughts and emotions as well as raising your energy when needed. Massive healing and Chiron energy in this pile. Shedding your old skin and coming out anew. By the end of it all, you will be a different person, the star of your own world. The universe is giving you a second chance to attach new opportunities you once let slip by. Forget about the past, a new start is on its way!

Make sure you gratitude for all the things in your life that make you happy and if you need guidance through this journey listen to your soul and follow the path you are being called towards. Remember that your soul choose this journey before you started your life on Earth. This moment was destined. Don't think you are unprepared and you will be lost once you decide to take action. Your soul has been training for this moment and you will know exactly what to do when the time comes. Your Guides are assisting you in this journey and they want you to have faith in yourself. Your circumstances will soon improve and your life will get so much better, don't lose hope!

Distractions

Whittaker!Master x Reader

Summary: You're trying to participate in a Zoom class and the Master's trying to get your attention.

Warnings: Implied smut, corona virus mention

A/N: For all the people now doing online classes/meetings because they suck bro. Please let me know if you liked it :)

"And that is why, although fusion reactors are a genius solution to our energy needs, they currently don't work."

Your professor flicks over to the next powerpoint slide and you groan internally, willing for the class to be over soon. You were sat in the TARDIS library, attempting to get to grips with online learning - you might be able to escape a pandemic on Earth via the Master's TARDIS, but it was still very much going on down there without you and as a result, your university tutorials and lectures had been moved online.

You're leaning forward to copy something down into your notepad when suddenly you feel arms slide down around your neck and blonde hair tickling your cheek. You tear your gaze away from your laptop to look at the Master, resting her head on your shoulder.

"Morning." You comment.

"Morning." She grins. "What's this?"

"My tutorial."

She frowns. "Isn't that a thing you're meant to do on Earth at one of those... umniversity thingys?"

"University." You correct. "And there's a pandemic remember? 2021? Everything's online for now."

"Oh yeah," She says nonchalantly. "Although you know it's alright in the end, don't you?"

"Spoilers." You reply dismissively.

"Y/N?" Your professor's voice suddenly pipes up and you return your attention to the screen. "Can you give us the two types of nuclear fission?"

Trying to ignore the Master clinging to you, you turn on your microphone.

"Spontaneous and..."

"Induced." The Master whispers in your ear, lips brushing over it and sending a small shiver down your spin.

"Induced." You finish, and turn your microphone off when your professor seems satisfied with your answer.

"I don't see why you bother with this." The Master waves her hand at the screen.

"I started my physics degree long before I met you, and I fully intend to finish it."

"Why do a degree in limited Earth physics when I can take you all around the universe and teach you it myself?"

"Because me saying 'Oh yes, my psychopath alien girlfriend taught me it all!' on my CV isn't going to get me a job." You retort. You lean over and highlight something in your textbook and she follows, still wrapped around you. If it was anyone else, you would bat them away, but the smell of her cologne is intoxicating.

"Humans know nothing about physics, believe me. It's a waste of time." She tells you. "Besides I'm sure there's much more... interesting things you could be doing."

With that, she presses a kiss to your jaw, elicting a faint 'oh' from your mouth, quite involuntarily. You attempt to shake her off, but she persists.

"Master." You warn as she moves onto your throat, nipping slightly, but she pays you no heed, continuing her onslaught. You bite your lip and mentally thank your past self for not turning on your laptop camera for this class - you'd originally thought that the imposing background of the TARDIS library would raise a few too many eyebrows, but you hadn't even considered that the Master might decide to wander into shot.

A hand begins to slide down your front, and you catch it quickly before it can reach anywhere too receptive.

"Master." You repeat, trying to pay attention to your computer.

You lean foward to write something, deliberately attempting to shrug her off. To your relief, she pulls away, but when you sit back again you don't have a chance to stop her before she plonks herself down in your lap.

"Oi!" You hiss, and she just grins back at you sweetly.

Thankfully she doesn't attempt to do anything else and instead just idily flicks through your textbook, scoffing at the content.

"Please - this is first year academy stuff."

Suddenly, one of your classmates pipes up.

"Professor, could you please go over the Nuclear fusion content again?"

"Again?" The Master sniffs. "Human's are such nano-brains."

You swat her and she just smirks, wiggling in your lap.

"I just don't get the chain reaction part." The student says after the Professor's explained it again.

"Oh, for Rassilon's sake." The Master rolls her eyes and reaches out to ummute you, supposedly to tell the student off for being such an incompetent primitive numbskull, but you catch her hand just in time, yanking it away and earning you a glare.

"How can you put up with this?" She exasperates.

"You," You say pointedly, "have the temperment of a child. Or a cat."

Her face lights up.

"I was actually a cat once! Well, not strictly a cat, more of a cheetah-"

"Now... could you tell us Y/N?"

You freeze at the your teacher's voice. You hadn't heard the question.

It's at this wildly innapropriate moment that the Master decides it would be a good time to lean in and begin pressing her lips to your throat again. You bite back a moan.

"Y/N?" The teacher says again at your silence.

"She asked you how to calculate residual energy from a nuclear reaction." The Master mumbles helpfully against your jaw, no doubt smudging lipstick onto it.

Hastily, you reach forward and turn on your microphone.

"Sorry, E=mc squared - ah." You swallow a gasp as the Master bites down. Reaching up, you thread a hand into her hair and pull her away roughly, which only serves to make the Master whimper and her eyes light up. You frantically reach out and put yourself on mute again, praying they hadn't heard that.

"Aren't you meant to be cleaning the rotors?" You hiss. You had barely seen her all morning.

"I was." She loops her arms around your neck and gives you a grin that reminds you so vividly of Missy.

"Why aren't you now?"

"I got bor-ed." She drags out the word and then leans in, red lips finally landing on yours and you let her kiss you all sweet and deep, tongue swiping over your lips tauntingly.

"I really need to finish this lecture." You say, breath dancing over her lips when the kiss breaks.

"I could always just get on my knees for you right here, love." She teases and you feel your cheeks go red.

"I'm not missing class."

"I learned this stuff before I was even a teenager, babe. I could teach you everything you missed in ten minutes."

"They'll notice I'm gone." You try to protest, but there's really no resistance left in your voice anymore, not when her hand's stroking over your cheek and through your hair like that.

"Tell them your internet broke."

"We're on a very well functioning space ship, I hardly think-"

She silences you with another kiss, a hand reaching out behind her to close your laptop. Without another word, you allow her to pull you up from your desk and lead you out of the library.

How could you prioritise a Zoom class over someone like her?

Chapter 64: The Queen’s Inheritance (III)

"You are really disgusting, what kind of garbage aesthetics does the person who created you have?" the sacrifice with the tangdao said. He turned his head and felt no guilt about destroying the ceremony.

He stood on the steps and looked at the growing monster. The black mist could no longer cover its body that had swollen after absorbing the blood of the worshippers and sacrifices. Now it was a strange creature like a crawling earthworm standing on the altar, and it was still expanding.

"Come on, eat a little more. When you’re full, we’ll have a good time. But don't eat too much. If you eat too much, I can't clean it up, then I’ll have to run away," the mysterious sacrifice told his plans to the monster in a magnanimous manner. He jumped away from its tentacles and mercilessly cut them off with his sword. The tentacles, that were curled up when they were cut, bounced twice on the steps and fell onto the ground below that was about to become a blood pool.

The mysterious sacrifice stood on the steps, looked up at the eye projected over the hall, sneered, and then looked back at the scene under the steps.

The whole ceremony scene had been completely reduced to hell on earth, and a large number of sacrifices had escaped. The sacrifices that hadn’t escaped before had died very quickly, and the worshippers were even worse. Some of them were crazily and frantically attacking each other, while others had simply committed suicide. Several tentacles that had come down from above the altar were cruising among the bodies, constantly devouring them.

The smell of death is pleasant, the mysterious sacrifice thought carelessly as he took a sniff. Ever since he had entered the Nightmare World from the real world more than two months ago, there were new surprises waiting for him every day, which would be regarded as abnormal things in the real world yet taken for granted here. This world, which completely follows the law of the jungle, was simply a paradise for people like him.

The mysterious sacrifice looked down and looked at the chaotic ceremony scene with great interest. The two people I saw outside also followed me here.

These two people... Interesting!

The mysterious sacrifice’s eyes were bright, and he jumped like a cheetah down from the steps of the altar. The cheetah casually rushed to the man who was trying to wake up his companion who had been dazed by the giant eyeball. He suddenly turned his sword on him, forcing him to loosen his hand and draw his sword.

Qi Leren, barely conscious and losing what he had been leaning against, fell to the ground on unstable feet and looked at the dome of the temple with empty eyes. That huge eyeball was still floating in the void. It seemed to exist there, but it seemed to exist in his imagination. No matter whether he opened his eyes or closed his eyes, the mysterious woman's dreamy voice lingered.

Ning Zhou was fighting head-to-head with the mysterious sacrifice. The person in front of him looked only twenty. He looked like Qi Leren, a foreigner, but his skills weren’t those of someone who had lived in peace—this was the common fault of foreigners. It was almost impossible for this group of people from the peaceful world to undergo years of training, so they more or less all had undisciplined fighting styles. But this man... This man was definitely a trained master!

In a short time, the two people have exchanged more than a dozen moves. Amidst the fierce fighting, the two began to use the original forces in their bodies intentionally or unintentionally. At that time, the terrifying supernatural power caused chaos around them.

"Interesting, I didn't expect some unexpected gains this time." The man with the tangdao grinned and looked very happy.

"...Who are you?" Ning Zhou asked coldly.

"A passerby*." Claiming to be a passerby, the mysterious sacrifice answered casually and drew his sword against the other again.

*{E/N: Pronounced “lu ren”, see end notes}

Ning Zhou didn't want to tangle with this puzzling guy at all, but the other party was not an opponent who could be easily beaten. After a short hesitation, he decided not to pull his hand, and let the surging force of destruction in his body spew out from the depths of his soul—for a moment, the force of destruction spread from him like an explosion, and the mysterious sacrifice who was close to him was flown out more than ten meters away.

"Angry?" The passerby stabbed the ground with his sword.

Ning Zhou looked at him coldly, his originally blue eyes filling with a thin layer of red mist.

"This kind of power is very interesting, but I still like fighting with real knives and guns." The passerby shrugged his shoulders. "Besides, this sword of yours is so lame that it’s totally unworthy of you."

Ning Zhou didn't listen to him, and the terrifying force of destruction was washing over his consciousness. He tried his best to fight against this force that was about to devour his reason.

"Oh, that guy has matured, your friend is in danger." The passerby’s line of sight crossed Ning Zhou's shoulder and looked at the huge mass of meat that was moving down. It supported its body with tentacles full of lesions, slowly crawled out of the black mist, and climbed down from the altar, while the huge tentacles wrapped in mucus devoured bodies in a pool of blood all the way, even those who had not yet died.

Amid the screams and groans, out of the black mist, the monster exposed its true appearance—a giant monster that looked as if it was comprised of worms and clumps of rotten meat, with festering tentacles covered with rotting tumors, emitting a strong smell of rotten meat. And in the middle of the meat, there is a black gap, and deep red eyeballs could be seen faintly in the gap.

Qi Leren, who had fallen into a state of mental disorder because he witnessed the mysterious eyeball in the sky, was unaware of the approaching tentacles. He lied in the pool of blood and stared blankly at the void above his head.

The tentacles were getting closer and closer. They had climbed the steps and come to him, and in that the next second they would roll him up and devour him!

Suddenly, a cold murderous aura passed through the air, and the almost condensed wave of destruction fiercely washed over the tentacles that were ready to eat, and instantly twisted the tentacles near Qi Leren into a pile of minced meat!

Ning Zhou, a few tens of meters away, slowly lowered the hand that had struck out his sword, closed his eyes, and calmed down the extraordinarily strong will to destroy just now, and then stepped on the blood and walked towards the monster that swelled to the point of crushing the altar.

The mysterious sacrifice who claimed to be just a passerby leaned against a column holding his arm, his tangdao stuck in the ground. It was rare that he didn't actively challenge his opponent.

It wasn’t that he didn't want to, or that he couldn’t fight. At the sight of this man, he was sure that he had touched a certain law and he held himself back under the influence of this law. He had only sensed the power of this certain law in the less than three months since he entered the world, and even he was very unskilled in using that power.

However, it was strange that this was clearly a righteous person, yet the strength in his body was so horrible. He could have been stronger if he hadn't been struggling to suppress this force, but for some reason, he tried to maintain his crumbling rationality and refused to be a slave to it.

The passerby appreciated the man's fighting ability, with his flowing movements that were incredibly smooth. In the real world, it was almost impossible to see a warrior who had experienced rigorous training since childhood. His outward strength cooperated with his movements and easily strangled the monster’s tentacles one by one, and he even set foot on the steps of the altar, moving closer to the monster’s body lying on the steps.

The man became a devil. The passerby saw his glowing red eyes and scales gradually covering his skin. However, this demonization seemed to fill him with pain. He had to stop and stand at the column beside the altar steps, breathing while trying to suppress this demonization process.

Taking advantage of the enemy's inattention, this unknown monster was recovering quickly. The remaining broken limbs were healing, and the next round of attack was eagerly brewing.

Ning Zhou didn't give it much time. He barely controlled the strength in his body. He once again raised the Sword of Judgement that was completely contrary to his force. This sword belonging to Maria's protective force and the force of destruction in his body were like fated enemies, but they were intertwined and used like self-abuse.

The losing monster retreated, its tentacles contracted in waves, and it seemed to be afraid of the awakening Devil King. But suddenly, the eyeball floating in the void emitted a scarlet light that centered on the monster's body. That huge piece of meat closed its eyes as if it was inspired by some kind of power, then opened its eyes—

The whole temple suddenly lost its color, as if only the colours black, white, and gray were left between heaven and earth, and the tremendous force or order fell from the sky like a huge mountain, which was heavily pressed on the top of everyone's head.

The passerby looked up and gave an impatient “tsk.”

This was another powerful person, stronger than this demonized man, and was possibly the one who had brought him into the Nightmare World and then irresponsibly discarded him. This kind of person who held a "field" was already regarded as "God" to some extent. And now, he was just a mortal looking forward to the opportunity to kill God.

The demonized man suddenly revealed his original form amid the sudden force—black dragon wings erupted from his back, the huge wings covered his rapidly changing body, scales covered his skin, and sharp talons grew from his fingertips. In less than a minute, he had turned into a black dragon and let out an angry roar against the powerful oppression above them.

That roar pierced through space, causing the courtyard filled with the gentle light of dawn to echo with it.

The woman who was sipping black tea gave a faint "hmm" and smiled: "Is this the force of destruction? It seems that he’s not far from becoming a devil."

"Do you want to get rid of him?" Su He, who looked particularly eye-catching in the light of the Village of Dawn, asked with a smile.

The petite Devil of Power took a sip of black tea and shook her head: "No, let him be. Since Slaughter has been dealt with, there is just one candidate missing to open the Devil King’s coronation ceremony. Let him take this place for the time being."

"Be careful when raising tigers," Su He laughed.

"The time isn’t right yet. Instead of worrying about him, think about the one in the Village of Dawn. He’s the one who will cause us trouble." The Devil of Power sighed lightly. "You know him well. Tell me, do you have any ideas?"

Su He propped up his chin and looked out at the sun rising between the floating mountains, showing a gentle smile: "Don't worry, it's already ready. It won't keep you waiting for long."

"With you handling affairs, I’ve always been at ease. However, the goldfish is still paying more attention. Since Slaughter left, the goldfish bowl has become more and more unstable. If it really lets its body escape... you know the consequences," the Devil of Power said lightly.

"When you’re officially crowned as the Devil King and let Utopia devour the demon world, this will not be a problem," Su He said.

The Devil of Power smiled, and the ambition of power shone in her eyes, making her radiant: "I yearn for that day more than anyone else."

Editor’s Notes: 

Did anyone guess right? :) The “passerby” Lu Ren is one of the main characters from BMBL’s previous trilogy The Easter Egg Game, which is set in the same universe as WTNG. I really recommend reading it if you haven’t yet, the ongoing translation can be found [here].

Also a couple things that I’m pretty sure BMBL used as inspiration for these last few chapters, but that I don’t believe she mentions in A/Ns: The fluorescent algae in the underground lake (later retconned to jellyfish) is a real thing and it’s very pretty, pics [here] and [here]. As well, the temple seems to be based off the Pantheon in Rome, which is famous for the “oculus” (eye) at the center of its dome, pic [here].

Random MHA heacannons (plus OC’s)

It’s been a while since I’ve a post with headcannons so have these

-Komori is unable to have kids, it’s one of the reasons why some of her romantic relationships have ended. Komori does want to have a family, but combined with the fact she’s physically unable to and her own anxities around the whole idea it’s lead to a lot of self sabotage on her end with relationships when she discovered she’s unable to have kids. Now days she’s single and is a lot happier, but she kind of clings to her newphew (Ectoplasm) and her grandkids (Riley and Haiya) a lot due to this 

-Hoshi is 95% of the time a chill kid, the remaining 5% is nothing but heated rage if you touch his little sister. Look but no touch. Hoshi was at first excited to have a baby sibling, but then grew nervous thinking his parents wouldn’t have time for him anymore when he was told how much work babies are. All of that worry of course left the moment he actually saw his baby sister, he got very grumpy when his parents or one of the adults would take his sister away from him and would scowl until they gave her back

-Hoshi loves snails, when he was younger he’d go outside with his bucket and try to bring the garden snails inside. Cementoss, a big plant lover, was especially against Hoshi bringing the snails inside

-When Riley was a toddler and when her parents where unable to find sitters on certain days sometimes Riley would come and hang out with them in the teachers break room, Riley loved to hide under Ecto’s cape while Ecto mocked innocence pretending he didn’t know she was there

-Hoshi’s little sister loves loves LOVES Miss Midnight, favourite auntie. Midnight is of course endlessly smug about being a favourite, that was until the day Hoshi’s little sister innocently went up to her with a ‘gift’ for her auntie. Midnight kneeled, opened up her hand, then Hoshi’s sister placed the biggest, ickiest, slimiest slug Midnight had ever seen right into her palm and oh god it was covered in mud and it was getting on her skin and ew gross. Higari found this - and still does find the event - endlessly amusing because Midnight had to grin and bare it until Cementoss showed up and came to her rescue, putting the slug back outside

-Hoshi’s little sister constantly mistakes Higari for being the younger brother and Chikara as the big sister. Chikara does not correct her on this, because her daughter is obviously right. Higari is small, therefore he is the younger one, flawlwss logic. Higari has tried so, SO many times to correct Hoshi’s little sister on this error, but she simply tilts her head at him and goes “But younger means small, and you’re small”

-Haiya and Riley are onesie people and they are not ashamed. Riley has a dinosaur onesie and Haiya has a cheetah

-Higari, having grown up with a lot of siblings sometimes had to help with making lunch or snacks with his parents, so he’s often dubbed head chef since he knows a lot more about cooking then Ecto. When it comes to baking cakes or anything sweet Higari is always dubbed the head chef in the kitchen, because Ecto, Haiya and Riley are always trying to eat the cake mix or cookie dough. Higari has learnt through years of practise to read a cook book and lightly slapping his kids and or husbands hand away from the bowl when they think he’s not looking 

-Magakure has resting grumpy face, which Hono inherited from her, shocker. Magakure also has a famous mum glare, which Higari actually mastered over the years of dealing with Hatsume and having kids of his own. When Higari shoots them that glare the kids know it’s time to get their shit together

(If you get this cartoon reference you are a person of culture and I like you)

Higari: Haiya help Riley get her hat! Haiya: Okay! *grabs it off hook* Here Riley: Thanks! *accidentally knocks coat rack over* Higari: Agh!-..Ugh, okay help me clean this *kneels* Riley: Aw, why do we have to help? Higari: *pauses*....*shoots mum glare at them* Haiya, quickly straightening up: Oh, okay

-Aizawa is the Uncle that none of the kids can get away with anything with. None of them. All of the kids theorise that Aizawa must have eyes in the back of his head or some kind of hidden quirk because he is always able to tell when they’re up to, or planning to do something dumb. Not in his house.

-Unlike his cousin Riley, Hoshi and his little sister actually quite like baths. Bubble baths especially

-Dangan tells the best stories to the kids when they come down to visit, Dangan isn’t much of a city person so his visits from Higari and Ecto are few, but he grows fond of them.

Kira is very gentlemanly when you two first started dating. Taking you out to lavish restaurants and fancy plays, stuff like that. He’ll help you out of the car, allowing you to hook your arm into his while he walks you back to your house.

He buys you expensive rings and bracelets or watches, insisting on putting them on you himself, admiring the way the metal glistens in the light compared to your skin. To you, it’s an innocent, sweet gesture so you don’t pay too much attention to it, much to his relief. After all, you were just a cover for him; an alibi to keep people off his back. Right?

Wrong. After a few month together, he’s at work when he gets a text from you. It’s a little thing, just a text saying hello, but it makes him... excited. You were thinking about him? Completely blind to his true nature. That makes him like you more. He finds himself thinking of how you would do being home with him, what kind of food you would make, what books you like. Now he’s decided. He needs you.

From that moment on, Kira makes a point to send you good morning texts, possibly inviting you on more dates, trying to get you more involved in his life which you’re more than happy to do. It doesn’t take him long to invite you to his house, gradually letting you in on some of the mystery that was Yoshikage Kira. 

Killer Queen is... very confused. In the beginning, it just kind of stares at you until you approach it, cupping it's face. Killer Queens' eyes widen. What the fuck is this thing and why is it touching me?! But slowly melts into it (sort of like those cheetah pictures). It curiously plays with your hair, pulling out tangles or just petting it. Still unsure how to feel about you, but it's user seems to like you well enough, so you should be fine. One rare days, when Kira allows it, it’ll slowly curl itself around you while you were watching a movie or reading a book, nuzzling into your cheek softly. Of course, this is well into the relationship.

He doesn’t acknowledge this to your face, but deep down, he’s a little jealous. He wishes that it were him there and not his stand. He feels every bit of what you do to Killer Queen ten fold. It does something to him, watching the stand show his soft side to you, he can’t explain it but he knows at that moment he can’t let you go.

Kira will buy you fancy moisturizer but doesn't typically help you apply it unless you ask. When you do ask, he's gentle about it, but you can see the wild look in his eyes. When you try to pull away, his grip stops you, quick and firm. He looks up at you dangerously, then softens, letting you go much to his disappointment.

He loves when you cup his face, soft palms cradling him, rubbing gently. One of the few times he lets himself go, in a sort of sense. Sure fire way to get him to fall asleep where he’s not really supposed to. He’ll lazily kiss your palms, knuckles and fingers, anywhere he can. 

His life is very regimented, he makes a schedule and sticks to it, this shows in the way he interacts with you. In the mornings at the same time, with out fail, he’ll tangle his fingers in yours, soft and sweet. Then, he brings your hand to his lips, tenderly kissing your knuckles, lost in the feeling of your hand in his for just a minute before telling you to have a good day and leaving. Then, when he gets home he find you sitting in your chair at the table (you’ve grown used to his routine by now and know he expects you there unless you’ve given him a reason to expect other) and does the same thing, but more desperate this time. He’s been working all day and needs some release which even more evident in the way his lips brush against yours. 

Touch starved, but doesn't need your touch, you know? Like, he loves feeling your hands all over him, but only at certain times, usually when he's trying to relax after work. But, he’s usually fine on his own. Don't touch his hair. He has perfected his style, does not want anyone to mess it up. Don't touch his hair.

When you two are home together on the weekends, you usually relax by reading a book or watching his soap operas.

Prefers if you are a stay-at-home spouse, wanting to do most of the working and bill-paying himself, but will begrudgingly comply if you have one before moving in with him. He likes having someone at home preparing things for him like food, or doing the laundry, cleaning.

Doesn't expect you to cook and do everything for him, but he's gracious when you treat him to a lovely pasta dinner with a glass of red wine.

He calls you regularly when at work, always on his lunch break. Occasionally, you'll meet him at his favourite food place and have lunch with him which he is more than pleased about, if a little worried. If people start to suspect him and you're seen with him, you'll be the first to go whether you move out or have an... accident, he knows you'll be dangerous to his safety. As much as he would love for you to stay with him, he knows you'd just run away if you knew who he really was.

Wake him up with a massage and he will be in the happiest mood ever. Gentle fingers rubbing along his shoulders and collarbones, soft kisses on his cheeks and lips. Best way for him to wake up. Loves it. One of the few times you will see him officially soft towards you. Not that he’s cold any other time, just a little reserved with his affections.

Down for baths together. Lots of bubbles and soothing lotions, cups of warm milk with honey for both of you (seeing as these usually happen before bed). Another moment when he's soft and genuinely caring, not obsessed. Pours the water over your shoulders, kissing them and rubbing circles into your muscles.

NSFW

Alright, the hand fetish is a given, but consider this: choking Kira with long nails? Eh? Eeeh? I'm sorry, but I love bottom!Kira. Like, lightly dragging your claws down his neck, before wrapping around it and squeezing until his eyes roll back into his head. *chefs kiss*

Loves to suck on your fingers while you ride him or jerk him off with the other hand. Or even just feeling your hands running over his body. It sets his skin on fire. 

     You pushed Kira down onto the bed, legs on either side of his torso. He could feel everything. Every breath you took, every light drag of your nails on him, every movement of your hips, everything and it drove him wild. One particular harsh scratch down his chest had his eyes rolling back into his head and hips bucking instinctively. 

     A light chuckle escapes you and you tut your tongue. He sighs through his nose, avoiding eye contact. You hum as you bring your hand up to his face gently cupping it, making him look back at you. You smile coyly, then push your hand down on his neck, choking him. Kira groans, shifting his legs to try and alleviate some of the pressure in his pants. 

    You just laugh again, whispering something about him not getting off that easy and he whines again as you roll your hips into the prominent bulge in his pants.

Prefers riding to missionary, or just hands-free orgasms with vibrators and the like. Has a soft spot seeing you doubled over, ass in the air and filled to the brim with a vibrating dildo in your ass, barely conscious enough to lick the precum off his dick, or attempt to get yourself off.

Orgasm denial is his middle name. Loves to see you struggle to form sentences when he stands above you, perfectly bothered by it.

Pet play. Another given. There's something about you on your knees next to him while he's eating or reading, patiently waiting for him to lift you up and bend you over the nearest counter or the couch or something. It gets him riled up and he has to struggle to control himself. He doesn't even consider touching you until he's finished his book or cleaned his plate completely. Then, he'll give you some relief.

Spanking? Yes. An absolute yes. He'll flip you over his knee whether you've been good or not and just smack your ass over and over again. He'd keep you there until he came home the next day, if he could and believe me, he would. Coming home to dinner on the table and then into your shared bedroom where you lay spread, ready and waiting for him. His feral side comes out more than he would like.

     Kira pulls you over his lap, running his hands down your back soothingly. Your hands were tied in front of you and your mouth was gagged. He pets your hair with one hand while the other pulls down your bottoms, kneading your ass. He tuts his tongue. 

     “You were waiting for this, weren’t you?” He smacks your bare cheek, humming when you let out a muffled sound of shock. “Of course, what else would you be waiting for?” Another smack echoes through out the room along with your mewls, and then another. And another. Each just as hard as the last or harder. 

     “Mmm~” You cry out, a tear falls freely from your eye. He wipes it away, letting his other free hand travel down to your genitals, remarking on how turned on you are.

     “You enjoy this, don’t you? Would you like more?” Kira sounds almost sweet when he asks, petting your hair gently again. “Is this how you would like to cum?” Desperately, you nod your head. Yes, yes you need more! Please more. He smiles and kisses you wherever he can, more than happy to comply.

Loves hand jobs. So much. It's quick, it leans into his hand thing and the sight of your hands wrapped around his cock. Oh, yeah. Loves it. Oh, and those lips on the tip? Mmmmm.

Doesn't usually get feral when it comes to sex, he's in control most of the time but on days when he's seen someone that he just had to have, but knew he couldn't, be prepared to be fucked against the wall. His thrusts are bruising and harsh, every time you try to catch your breath, he thrusts into you again, making you hiccup. It's a wild ride, so be prepared.

Now. Killer Queen. Not the most sexual stand but... I'd ride it. He'll use KQ as a punishment for when you've been bratty in the bedroom. It'll thrust into you harshly and just stay there while you squirm. Kira, of course, will be watching from the armchair the entire time, calling you all sorts of degrading names and telling you that his stand will only move if you agree to whatever absurd request that he gives you.

Now, back onto bottom!Kira. Men get pegged? Is that still a thing? Because he sure as hell does. Push him down into the bed and just ruin his ass, then cling to him afterwards. He’ll be obsessed with you from then on. Bonus points if you shove your fingers into his mouth while doing so. He cums almost instantly and a lot.

You could try pulling his hair when taking him from behind, but it depends on his mood. On the days he needs an outlet to get out his frustration or to let go of tension, he’ll let you, but other than that, follow the rule of don’t touch his hair.

Now, cock warming? Oh yeah. Anytime, any place, he would just love to keep you on him 24/7. Or warming your cock/strap on him? Hell yeah. Have him sit on you while he tries to read a book or something and occasionally move your hips, the tip just rubbing against his prostate, just slowly watching him lose his patience before putting whatever he had down and fucking himself on your cock, real or otherwise.

I find that some of the most reserved people I know are the kinkiest and this 100% shines true wit Kira. He’d never admit it, but he’s open for almost everything, I think

Piercings 7: Brothels and Babes

Summary: Non family friendly conversations during homework time. (Animal traits, batkids, Superbat)

_____

Bruce, a cat hybrid, has been running his brothel for the past ten years. It's the hottest spot in Gotham and the children he employs and adopts are a high class breed. They don't start working until they are ten and they have to work two nights a week. If they want to work more, that's up to them, otherwise they can hang around the mansion doing as they please. 

He has an on site ex marine named Clark, a snow leopard hybrid that protects the children and the property. Alfred, an owl hybrid that cooks and cleans and a Zatanna, a black panther, who teaches the children who aren't ready for public school yet. His oldest child, Dick, a flamingo hybrid, is currently in graduate school and only works during his school breaks. He still lives on the property though. Dick is his most requested. He is highly picky and usually saves his time for a NASCAR racer and cheetah hybrid named Wally. 

Jason, a fox hybrid, is in his last year of high school and gambles with his clients. The men who come are so desperate for a chance to sleep with him, they've taken out loans with them at a high interest rate. The best way to get land is through Jason.

Tim, his bunny hybrid is 13 and a masochist. The men that go into that room usually wear a collar that Tim controls in case of them not listening to his safe words. 

His girls Cassie, 16,  a snake hybrid and Stephanie, 15, another bunny hybrid usually double teamed with massages and happy endings unless requested separately. 

Right now, his only biological child, Damien just turned ten, is a natural born sadist. He refuses to be penetrated. He spends most nights stepping on dicks and degrading people. 

It's Halloween time, a perfect chance to make a lot of money before they shut down for the next two months for the holidays. His tail twitches behind him as he leans over the island in the kitchen while he watches the children do their homework. The only one working tonight is Jason. Mr. Wilson is one of the few men that can beat Jason's games. 

He only notices Clark entering the kitchen when he feels the man's tail graze his own. He watches Clark tap the head of each kid in greeting before going over to help Alfred finish the dishes. 

Clark has been a wonderful addition to their little family. He's been with them for the past five years. When they first met, he thought the man was going to ask for one of the kids, but instead he wanted to work. He was tired of the Marines but still wanted to protect people, but afterwards said that he wanted a night with Bruce. 

Bruce gave him his night at a high fee which Clark didn't even flinch at. Bruce rarely slept with people after Dick started working and even less after Clark claimed him a year into living and working on their property.

Clark had money. Not old Wayne money, but good new money which always goes into their household. Speaking of.

"Clark?" Said Bruce. 

Clark dries a dish and places it in the cabinet. His white ears twitch before responding. "Hmm?"

Running his fingers through Damian's fur, "Remember to take the kids costume shopping tomorrow." 

"Um, Cass and I can go by ourselves." Steph interrupted. 

"Oh, didn't know you could drive." Bruce said slyly. 

"Well you know I can. Just not legally alone." She pouts. But perks up. "Clark, can I drive when we go costume shopping? Oh my god, there is a custom costume shop in the downtown district which will be more high quality than whatever shop you're thinking of." 

"You know the exact location?" Said Clark. Drying his hands on his pant leg. Alfred and him are finished with their task. Alfred walks over to them when Tim waves him over. 

"Can you review my answers?" Whispers Tim. 

"Of course Master Tim." Alfred softly whispers. 

"Duh. If I'm wrong then we'll GPS it." 

"So reassuring." Clark walks over to stand next to Bruce. Their tails intertwined together. 

"Come on. Please let me drive. I've been driving with Dick and I want to start driving to school next year." Homework forgotten. She turns to Cassie. "Right Cass? We'll look so good driving to school." 

Cassie looks up from her notebook to her sister and smiles. She signs yes. Steph joyfully hugs her. 

"Father, can I be a ninja? I want to stab those who dare think I'm weak." Said Damien. Placing his pen down. 

"You do that anyway." Said Tim. Not looking up from his paper as Alfred gives him corrections. 

"Yes, but I want a costume to fit my aesthetic. I can even get a katana. Father, have you heard of sounding?" 

"You don't sound with a katana." Bruce said. 

"You can if you aren't a pussy." Retorts the ten year old. 

"We can invite that asshole, who stealth Cassie and you can sound him out with a katana." Said Jason. Entering the kitchen. He was in his pajamas as he walked over to get a soda from the fridge. 

"Jason, it's a bit late for sugar." Said Alfred. 

Jason huffed, and grabbed water instead. 

"How was Mr. Wilson?" Said Clark. 

"Fine as always." Said Jason. His ears are red. 

"Father. Jason is correct. He'd be the best to inflict this on." Damien said with a smile. 

"He's banned from the property. And besides, Clark's marine buddies took care of it." Bruce said, turning to Clark. 

Clark puffed out his chest. He took pride in protecting their home. After Cassie learned her client ripped the condom, she cried to Steph and Stephanie explained the situation to Clark. Clark dealt with it. The man must be missing according to what the newspaper has been saying. 

That was two weeks ago and she just had her first client since the incident that morning. 

"Also, remember what special offer you want to offer your clients. We'll be charging them extra for this month." Said Bruce in between yawns. He rubbed his eyes. 

"Father, I'm done." Handing his paper to Bruce to look over. His kitten ears are alert to hear that he did a good job. 

Bruce was looking over the results, when Tim spoke up. "Can I get a costume for each day I have a client?" 

Damien looked at Tim with venom in his eyes. He did not play when it came to getting praises from Bruce. 

Looking at Damian before answering Tim. "Good job. Perfect as always." Said Bruce. Damien released a purr before placing his work back in his folder. 

"And yes. Get anything you want." 

"And I'll drive you to anywhere you can to get your costume." Said Steph gleefully. 

"With me in the car." Clark said. 

She rolled her eyes. "Yes yes, with Clark in the car." 

"Does anyone know if Dick is home?" Said Damien. 

"Yeah." Said Jason. "He's on the porch playing chess with Mr. Wilson." Jason was leaning on Alfred at this point. Rubbing the owl's feathers between his fingers. 

Damien got up and left. 

"Remember to brush your teeth before bed." Yelled Bruce after Damien. 

"I'm going to bed. I'm sore and I'm glad tomorrow is Friday." Said Jason. Standing up to hug Alfred and moving around him to grab Tim. "Come on. I need a cuddle buddy tonight." 

"I look nothing like Mr.Wilson though." Joked Tim, but he placed his homework in his backpack before following Jason. 

"You're lucky you're cute Timothy." Replied Jason. 

Bruce watched the rest of the people in the kitchen go to bed. As long as he knew his kids were home, he could go to sleep. 

Bruce and Clark went upstairs to do their nightly routine before Bruce remembered he needed to speak with Clark. 

Clark was already in bed. Bruce was only wearing the top to the bottom Clark was wearing. Leaning over the sink. He spit his toothpaste out and called out to Clark. 

"I have an appointment with Ivy and Harley tomorrow afternoon." For a long time Harley was banned from the brothel for her relations to The Joker. They caused too much chaos when together but since she's been with Ivy, things have cooled down. 

Clark likes to meet with banned clients before they could get reinstated.

"At what time exactly?" 

"10am. The kids should all be gone minus Damien, but he'll be preoccupied anyways." 

"You told them to come early so I can see them?" 

Spitting out the water he gargled. "Of course." He wiped his mouth and left their conjoined bathroom to join his mate in bed.  

He loved the warmth his snow leopard produced. He threw his leg over Clark to sit on his lap. Making sure the leopard's pre-knot sat snug between his asscheeks. He was grateful to have someone as devoted to him as Clark was. Especially his marine league buddies. They've done countless cases like the Cassie one for their brothel before. 

"Can I get a little kiss?" Flirted Clark. Looking at Bruce deeply. Pulling him closer to massage the base of his cat lover's tail. 

"It'll cost you." Wrapping his arms around Clark. Rubbing their noses together. 

"Oh baby. I'll go broke trying to get a taste of you." The smooth white stubble tickling Bruce's face as he kisses his cheek. 

"Those are my favorite type of men, Darling."

This is Part 1, ✨History✨.

Okay, so I was working on typing up plot stuff for Joden's story that I'm still thinking of a name for, but it's getting really long so I'll post it in parts. :3

Also since this is really early in the story's creation pretty much everything is subject to change, but you get the idea of the general plot. XD

@ascendant-queen 💖

If anyone has any questions feel free to ask 👀

The story is set in a forested landscape,  tree dotted grasslands eventually giving way to deep forests climbing up the mountain slopes. The different kinds of animals live in self governing groups, with varying levels of interaction between them. 

The smaller critters like mice, rabbits, and squirrels mostly just live in large family groups throughout the entire region south of the Great Pine Woods.  They by far make up the majority of the population, and have no uniting ruler.

The cheetahs live in the southern plains, little baronies scattered all around.  Their diet consists of fish and smaller birds (? Might change that later haven't decided if the birds are sentient) and the cereal crops they grow.  They also trade these grains with the other animals in exchange for goods such as cloth and beads.  They love being fancy. They have this system of electing their rulers, but only members of the "nobility" (land owners) ever get voted in because of money stuffs.

The raccoons also form their own society working off the classic monarchy.  Their kingdom is built in the Eastern woods, with  their homes built up off the ground and literally in the trees.  In the most populated villages, rope and stick bridges connect these homes making swinging pathways in the branches. A lot of the smaller creatures choose to make their homes in the roots of the raccoon trees, as their territorial border patrol keeps out aerial predators and the occasional rogue fox.  Unlike the cheetahs,  the raccoons are small enough they have enemies to worry about, and are known to have an exceptional and disciplined military. 

The bear clans live high up in the craggy woods working their gardens, rather indifferent to what happens below and the rumors that they eat their visitors.

The foxes do not have any form of government or organization. Some live in groups and some alone, some pledge a mammal free diet and some hunt their neighbors.  As such they are not trusted by anyone. :/

Here is a map I drew up:

A few things are unnamed and the scale is a bit off but you get the general idea of layout. 👍

About twenty years before the story begins:

Down from the Northern pine woods a clan of foxes comes.  They are organized, armed, and angry, ready to claim some territory after being chased out of the north by the wolf clans.  Most of the southern foxes come to join their cause, pleased at the idea of them having utter lordship over the woods. Skirting around the great cats, they infiltrate the woods to the west and south after establishing themselves in the North. This was done easily with no opposition due to the small critters having no leader. They just swept in and conquered.

With this done they turn their attentions to the East.  The raccoons have watched this all  happen with great alarm.  King Cynric gathered his men in preparation of the attack, but still wasn't ready for the craftiness of the foxes'.  They came in great numbers from the south, engaging the king's soldiers in the clash of battle, while stealthy individuals crept past the border guards and set fire to the trees.  The wind and dry weather did its work, and the kingdom of raccoons fell to fire and bloodshed.  Most died in the fires that destroyed their homes, the remainder of them fled under the guidance of their prince, only to fall at the mercy of their waiting enemies.  Unprotected sows and their kits were slaughtered by the sword or captured and enslaved in the ruins of their home and all across the newly conquered forest.  

This song really fits the burning of East Wood and Rowan's side of the story.

Prince Rowan, however, rebelled at the enslavement of his people.  With his father the king now gone, he was left the protector of his people and despite his wife's urging, could not lay down in submission.  He gathered a small team of close friends and willing boars, bid his wife farewell, and left, hoping to gain more information on the foxes' plans and find a way to free his people.   Him and those with him were never heard from again. 

The cheetahs watched all this happen around them, and decided not to interfere, but rather formed an uneasy alliance with the foxes.  They didn't consider themselves in any danger of being conquered, but weren't bothered by their actions and wanted to avoid the bother of war.  The foxes were more than eager to sign peace with the cheetahs, knowing in that their conquest would be secure.  It is unknown whether the bears up in their western mountain range are even aware of the dramatic changes to the lower-lands.

The woods are now in an awkward state of affairs, the foxes holding a tyrannical rule over all their subjects. Soldiers are stationed in every town and village to "keep the peace", the inhabitants going about their lives in the fear they or one of their family members will be chosen as the next meal.  Most of the Southern foxes still prefer a mammal free diet, but one of the Northern invaders' main objectives is to secure easy prey for consumption.  

The "free" creatures are allowed to live their lives "as they would please", but have limited allowance to travel and must give payment at the end of every week to their resident "guardians".  This payment can be anywhere from a basket of wheat berries or a bolt of cloth to an older child.

The raccoons have a far stricter control placed over them, as they are viewed more capable of revolt.  Scattered across the foxes' open woodless territory small slave towns hold the remnants of Cynric's kingdom. They spend their days working for their masters, boar and sow alike, tending fields, cooking and cleaning, mining, etc.  They are kept under strict control with heavy penalties for disobedience. Their meal times are regulated, their sleep times, work times, housing, children, everything. It is in one of these dusty, dead towns Joden grows up in.

His mother is old enough she remembers what life was like in the old kingdom, remembers a life of freedom under the trees.  Joden's father died shortly after the foxes' attack, he is told later he was one of the faithful boars that accompanied Prince Rowan for his last stand.  She raises Joden on these tales, urging him to never give up the hope that they can one day be free.

It is for his mother's sake Joden's intense optimism grows.  Can he truly be considered a slave if he goes about his work with a smile and a song? If he willingly puts on the yoke and carries the load they have required, who is the one truly in control here?  They can enslave his body but they cannot enslave his spirit.  

As he gets older he also grows bolder.  Just being cheerful to lift his mother's spirits is not enough.  He wants the entire slave town to be free in the way he is.  They all go about their days in unnecessary gloom, only because they lack someone to lead them out of it.  By the time he reaches maturity the entire town looks to him as their leader, hoping that someday a hero will come to set them free and lead them home. He stands in for them against the cruelty of their masters, fighting for the justice of his small community of raccoons.  This often gets him into a good bit of trouble, which he somehow always manages to get out of and back home to his worried mother. 

He meets Twylla when she is relocated from another slave town by stepping in when a few of the slave masters decide to teach the new coon a lesson.  The girl had made no grave offense, just a slip in her understanding of the schedule this different camp functioned under.  It was a great surprise to her when a random coon detached himself from the troop marching past, and demanded they punish him in her stead.  He would take responsibility for the sow and her actions throughout her initiation and teach her obedience to their rules, all her mistakes laid to his shoulders instead.  This was agreed to, as they had nothing in particular against the new coon but did enjoy taking out their boredom on Joden who usually escaped from any attempts against him.  Twylla really had no idea what to think of any of this.  She helped him up off the ground with repeated apologies he gently brushed off. She very willingly trotted along after him as he taught her not only how to function in this new town, but also how to hope. Then later they get married. :3

Jaceryn is the son of a Cheetah land baron.  He has been raised in the lap of luxury, his father being the wealthiest of the barons and the cheetah's current elected leader.  He is a rather naive boy who has never left his Father's estate, but naturally has big plans on how he will make the world a better place.  He has grown up in a world where the foxes have dominion of all the forest outside his Father's control, and this is normal, but he doesn't understand what that means until he sees it for himself.  They have little raccoon slaves all over his Father's land that they purchased from the foxes, so the concept of raccoons being a race of slaves is kinda engrained in him.  There's no such thing as a "free raccoon".  

His mother instructed him to stay on his father's estate when he plays outside, but one day he gets curious like young boys do, and decides to venture into the trees.  He really likes the way the forest feels and goes deeper and deeper, thoroughly enjoying himself when he hears voices and decides to investigate.  He comes across a raid in a woodland village, the fox overlords collecting their taxes.  He sees the children ripped from their mother's arms, the weeping villagers, the carts of goods and the miserable raccoon slaves pulling them, and the jeering,  laughing faces of the fox soldiers and the injustice burns within him.  It is true the foxes defeated them in battle, so the captives are their spoils of war, but this is unnecessarily cruel oppression and he hates it.  He hates that his own people- free people- are doing nothing to change this and he resolves to be the one that frees the slaves.  His parents are told this scheme by their proud little thirteen year old and are very quick to try and dissuade him.  Not only is this a dangerous task for him to undertake, but this also holds the possibility of starting a war that neither of them wish to fight.  Jacer agrees to "abandon" the dream to put his parents fears to rest, but secretly continues plotting and preparing his coup.  It would be risky, and he would need to be sneaky.  Break into a camp and take out the guards, let the little coons run free…

He went on frequent trips out to the forest to swing around in the branches and practice creeping silently through the underbrush.  The other cubs his age wrote him off as a weirdo, so he went alone.  His father eventually began to worry about him on these trips, remembering how impulsive his son can be at times.  It had been years since Jacer had talked about his quest to end slavery and had shown no signs that he still held that belief so his father thought nothing of purchasing Jacer his own personal slave.  This slave's job would be companion and voice of reason and just general personal servant.  

This is probably where the actual story would start lol, so all that is setup. XD

I'll share more as I finish writing it, cause I'm really excited about this story. :3
