[Fake Shameless vs Stoic Shameless]
I can't take it. I can't take it no more. I HAVE TO WRITE IT BEFORE IT DIES, AAAAHHH!
Neito Monoma x Very straightforward Fem-Reader
"Hahahahaha! I heard that you've gotten a new member today, 1-A! I'm guessing that they're just as pathetic as the rest of you!"
The classroom door had been left open, the only reason that this boy could've ever opened it without the keys.
This... boy. Short blonde hair. Blue eyes that made you think of both forget-me-not flowers and blue granite at the same time. Perfect teeth. The odd way he bent over. His eyelashes and his lips, vitally noticeable yet unnoticeable like the texture of a canvas underneath the paint. His voice, which you'd normally find irritating on another, seemed perfectly suited for him. The white pupils he had, instead of the 'dead fish' eyes you were reminded of with others, looked like pearls inlaid into a tourmaline and white quartz of some sort.
Oh, you were smitten the moment you saw him. Your classmates didn't seem to share the same sentiment, however.
"So not manly to judge a person before you even met her, Monoma!" said Kirishima. Monoma was one of the few people he didn't get along with, which was a surprise only to you.
"Yeah! Go away, leave us alone!" said Denki after Kirishima finished speaking, looking up from his conversation with Mineta to get Monoma to go away. Mineta wandered off now that the attention was off of him.
"Sorry about that, he comes around often..." said Mina, her lips forming a pout and her eyes slightly narrowed in obvious annoyance.
You knew that she was actually more upset about having her 'conversation' with you interrupted, a one-sided talk with her speaking endlessly while you were completely silent, but you patted her on the shoulder, much to her surprise, and walked up to him
"Oh, what's this, the new 1-A student, trying to fight with-"
"You're cute. Go out with me."
...!?!?!
The entire class was silent. Wide eyes, gaping mouths, even Mineta had frozen before he snuck up on Yaoyorozu and promptly got stopped by Jiro.
"W-well, I never! You could be j-joking and trying to trick me, f-f-for all I know!" Monoma stuttered out, pointing his trembling finger at you as he fixed his posture.
Ah, he was blushing... he looked so much better with a blush on- no, wait, scratch that. He looked good all the time. His cuteness was just enhanced when he was blushing and stuttering.
Before he could continue, however, you had unlocked your phone and gently grabbed his hand, placing your phone into the palm of his hand.
"Put your phone number into my calls list. I like your voice."
He blushed even more with that, little half-attempted words coming out of his mouth at how... assertive you were. Did you have no shame, no awareness of the multiple people filming this!?
"...okay."
Monoma, under your abnormally intense, wide-eyed stare that seemed to see through him (you wish), input his phone number into yours and gave your phone back to you.
You intentionally held his hand as you took your phone back, and once you did, he fled...
"I'll get my vengeance for this, 1-AAaaaaaaaaaa!"
He was surprisingly quick but you could hear that he ran into someone down the hallways outside.
...
You smiled to yourself in your newfound victory.
And, of course, someone just had to ruin it.
"This feels a lot like the story of how my dad and the old hag got together, damn it! I don't want to relive that!"
...Bakugo was quickly silenced by the death stares from a few of the more... gossipy girls. Namely Mina and Tooru. For such energetic girls they sure can silence a man.

Two days had passed since the War of Ravager's Crusade. Returning to his kingdom, Bakugou saw the ashes and broken homes of once-smiling children and families, now reduced to rotten, burned bodies beneath the rubble of their own homes. He felt a deep disappointment in himself for failing to protect his kingdom, even after promising his parents he would continue their legacy and be like his mother, the Queen of the Crimson Bones. He had lost everything he swore to uphold, and now he lay in his room, staring blankly at the ceiling.
Hopeless and unsure of what to do, the realization hit him hard: his army, his village, his kingdom, his family-they were all gone. A tear rolled down his cheek, landing on his wrinkled, rough bed. He cried quietly, his sobbing filled with regret. He longed for revenge but felt utterly useless.
Katsuki Bakugou, the Crimson Warrior, was supposed to win this war, but instead, he had lost the souls of those who loved and admired him. He had managed to kill the leader of the Crab Clan without magic, which was impressive enough on its own.
Wait... magic. Magic had been forbidden in his kingdom. His mother had outlawed it, believing that no one should rely on the "easy way out to victory." She felt that those who used raw strength alone were worthy of respect and honor, with the sole exception of healing magic, which was revered for its usefulness.
But now... maybe he could use magic to bring some of his people back. The bodies weren't too far gone yet. Dark magic could be the key.
Bakugou quickly rushed to his library, searching frantically for dark magic spells.
. ⋅ ˚̣- : ✧ : - ⭒ ⊹ ⭒ - : ✧Meanwhile... At The Abyssal Sanctum (Y/N's Realm).. ⋅ ˚̣- : ✧ : - ⭒ ⊹ . ⋅ ˚̣- : .
"Y/N, you've got to stop your people from using your magic to revive the dead! Ugh! People in heaven are starting to disappear. We don't want our world to overpopulate!" An angelic but rough voice shouted angrily. It was Azariel.
"Erm... you're overreacting, dude. It's just a couple of people. It's not like a billion people got revived," you replied, unbothered by Azariel's concern and his constant ranting about the "overpopulation theory."
"My point still stands! Oh, Great Heavens, you infuriate me! Please get rid of the spell, since you and your family invented dark magic! YOUR MAGIC IS SINFUL AND EVIL!" he yelled, stomping away angrily, clearly annoyed by your stubbornness, and slammed your enchanted, huge doors behind him.
"It's just reviving, though. What harm does reviving someone cause? And sinful and evil? Alright, buddy, my magic doesn't have morality... it just is what it is," you muttered, feeling annoyed. He kept complaining about people showing up in heaven almost every day, which was apparently tiring for him. Then, when people used your magic to bring loved ones back, he complained about that too? It didn't make any sense.
While you were deep in thought, your doors suddenly burst open. Your best friend came rushing in, beaming with excitement.
"Oh~ HERE COMES THE GODDESS OF LOVE! WORSHIP ME, AND THERE'S A 50/50 CHANCE YOU WON'T DIE ALONE! Heheh! Y/N! GUESS WHO'S GONNA BE THE HOST OF THIS YEAR'S 500TH ANNIVERSARY GAME!" Koemi cheered, her happiness radiating.
"It's you. I know," you replied, unamused.
"Oh..." Koemi's tone dropped, sounding disappointed by your flat response.
"You could've maybe pretended.. To not know.. Jeez you always like this even when we were mortals." Koemi said annoyed.
"What? I'm stating something that I think is correct based on your reaction Dumbass."
"Okay.. Okay anyway you already know I'm gonna be the one who host this game event, so I've been thinking maybe we can bring the mortals into our little game. Can you guess why?.." Koemi said excitedly.
"We're gonna invite them to tea or something?..." Y/N said, still unimpressed.
Koemi huffed in annoyance. "You've known me since diapers in the mortal world. Jeez, it's like I'm a character introduced in your story mode, but the most forgotten character ever... Anyway, no. I have an idea! So, we do this game event where we pick our mortals-without looking into their past or future-and then make them fight for a single wish! A wish that can grant anything! Like, really anything! They can even join us as a god! What do you think?" Koemi asked, excitement bubbling in her voice. She eagerly awaited Y/N's opinion, even though deep down, she expected something simple-yet sharp-that would probably hurt her feelings.
"Okay that's good." That's it? You fucking piece of shit koemi said in her mind. Well it's fine anyway she's your best friend and she acts like this its fine! Koemi said in her mind, rambling about Y/N and her friendship, lost in her thoughts now.
"Soo.. When will the games begin? Since were gonna pick our own mortals whats the rules? We can pick any mortals right? So some of the gods can just pick someone who' better than everyone else and win the final fight"
Y/N said questioning Koemi ideas if she got a planned for those will use this advantage to just win unfairly in the event.
"Well here are rules of course!" As Koemi make a contract appear out of thin air with her magic,
Tumblr media
(If you can't read it)
Welcome to an intense and fiery competition where mortals are subjected to extreme conditions and trials. Selected by the gods, these mortals, driven by lofty ambitions and desires for greatness, will face a crucible of challenges designed to test their determination and resourcefulness. The gods watch from their celestial thrones, relishing the spectacle as these chosen mortals confront their destinies. The gods and goddesses who participate in this grand event shall be rewarded handsomely for their involvement.
Rules and Regulations:
No Handpicking Mortals: Deities are strictly prohibited from personally selecting mortals for participation. The selection process must be predicated upon a divine trait or power inherent to the gods, ensuring that mortals are chosen based on their intrinsic qualities or motivations aligned with the deity's domain.
No Assistance Beyond Emotional Support:Gods are forbidden from utilizing their divine powers to aid mortals directly or indirectly. Any form of intervention, be it through supernatural influence, guidance, or manipulation, is prohibited. Only emotional support, such as encouragement or moral fortitude, is permitted.
No Manipulation of Mortal Trials: The divine entities must refrain from altering or manipulating the trials and challenges faced by the mortals. The integrity of the competition must remain unblemished, with each trial designed to test the mortals' innate qualities without divine interference.

Punishment for Breach of Rules: Gods or goddesses who violate these rules shall be subjected to the most severe of divine punishments. The offending deity will be exiled from their divine realm and cast into a void of endless darkness, where they shall experience the profound isolation and despair of being cut off from divine powers and companionship.
-Koemi Ramírez.

"bravo.. The goddess of Love and Lust actually thinks for once!"
Koemi's face expresses just 😐. "Sorry. I know you're not the goddess of lust only love.. Just a joke.. Anyway let me see the contract.." Y/N said as she reads it. "Make sure to signed it if you want to join the game!" Koemi said.
"Alright that looks good, I signed it. Did you already have other gods signed it?" Y/N asked
"I did just now-almost all of them have signed it!" Koemi said enthusiastically. "Anyway, I've got to find my mortal! Good wishes and love to you, my dear friend! You won't die alone-"
Before she could finish, Y/N snapped her fingers, and Koemi vanished from the realm with a soft pop.
Y/N let out a sigh, shaking their head with a wry smile. "Good luck with that, Koemi." She muttered to the empty space left behind, the air still crackling with the remnants of the goddess's departure.

"Fuck... I can't find anything in this damn library. I want my people back..." Bakugou muttered as he stood up, the chair creaking as it was pushed by his back. He walked through the empty hallways of what was once a lively and grand castle. Now, it lay in ruins, with rubble scattered around and burned curtains and carpets.
"Goddamn it... Why couldn't I just... protect them? They played dirty with me. I've searched through every book, but not one is related to dark magic..." Bakugou sighed, his eyebrows furrowing deeper, his expression a mix of frustration and sadness.
He stopped in front of a large mirror in the long, desolate hallway, gazing at the scars and burn marks that littered his body. He stared at his reflection, seeing someone tired and stressed-every word in the definition of exhaustion and depression. Once a great king, now... someone entirely useless.
"I should leave this place... The food here is stale. I can't survive another day without eating properly." Bakugou packed quickly, determined to leave the place he once called home, vowing not to return until he could restore honor and bring back the souls and bodies of his people.
As he ventured deeper into the woods, he heard a rustle in the bushes behind him. He gripped his axe, ready for anything, but kept walking forward.
"WAH! GIVE ME YOUR MONEY!" A creature with purple balls for a head leapt out at him. Bakugou swung his axe, purposely missing, the blade landing beside the creature.
"OH SHIT!-YOU! OUH MY GAWD-Y-Y-YOUR MAJESTY! UH, UH... SORRY! I THOUGHT YOU WERE THAT HOMELESS MAN WHO STOLE MY SILVER COINS, SIR!" The creature immediately dropped to his knees and bowed before Bakugou.
"Tch..." Bakugou scoffed, placing his axe back on his shoulder as he continued his journey.
"Mineta, buddy! You done yet? Did you kill that homeless man? It's getting dark-Oh! Hey, stranger. Did my buddy scare ya? Sorry, dude!" A yellow-haired man walked into the scene just as Bakugou was about to head toward the nearby town, which seemed to be having a festival.
Bakugou walked past the two boys toward the town. As he entered through the open gates, he noticed people celebrating. Decorations hung from house to house, and in the middle of the town stood a statue of someone, though Bakugou couldn't really see it due to the crowd. He made his way around the large crowd and headed for the food area.
"Ah! Hello, young man! Would you like to buy some bread? I've got all types-never old, only fresh!" the bread seller joyfully exclaimed.
Bakugou remained quiet as he picked a freshly baked loaf.
"Young man, I'm guessing you're not from around here, hmm?" the man asked.
Bakugou nodded. "What are you people celebrating?" he asked, his tone curious but still rough.
"Ah! We're celebrating our goddess, Koemi Ramírez.-the goddess of love. She lived in this town 500 years ago, but she left on a journey to gain more power and to help the people here. That's all I know... If you want to kno-"
Bakugou left, placing a block of gold on the man's counter before he could finish. He moved on to another food stall, buying more food. He didn't know exactly where he was heading after leaving, but his goal remained clear: to find a dark magic user or learn dark magic himself.
"Hey, well if it isn't the Goated Man! Hey, uh... can I get some bread?" the yellow-haired man asked, but was immediately cut off.
"Denki, you didn't help with the festival decorations, or anything really... No aid, no gain for you. Wait... is that how the kids say it these days? Hm... Anyway, no, get outta here," the bread seller replied.
"Can you at least tell me who that was? I bumped into him once near the woods after Mineta lost his coins because of a homeless man. He looks pretty tough! Is he a royal?" Denki asked.
"No idea, well just ask him. Anyway, move along, you rogue thief. Heh!" the bread seller laughed.
Denki rolled his eyes playfully and followed the man with ash-blonde hair.
"Hey! Your Majesty!" Bakugou ignored the sudden yelling behind him-on purpose.
"Can't you hear me?! Hey!!..." The footsteps grew closer. "Hey, Your Majesty! Hehe, sorry for interrupting your shopping, but can you please help-wait, hey man! Stop walking past me! Okay! Wait, I have something you're looking for!"
Bakugou stopped in his tracks and looked back at the yellow-haired man. The man pulled out a medium-sized diamond.
"Isn't this yours? Hmm?" the man said.
Bakugou glanced at the diamond, then back at the man's eyes. "Yeah. Get lost."
The man was shocked. He had stolen a precious, medium-sized diamond from him, and those things were very valuable-at least to people like him.
"Please, I'm Denki Kaminari, the Rogue of this town! You can trust me! Tell me what you want! I really need your help!" Denki pleaded with Bakugou.
"Ugh. Find me a dark magic user, or give me a book with dark magic spells."
Denki was stunned. Dark magic... It was ancient and illegal in many towns, cities, and kingdoms. He couldn't find something like that.
"...uh... Hm, I can't find you a dark magic book, but-"
"Ugh, of course..." Bakugou scoffed.
"B-but! I can lead you to someone who knows more about magic. Maybe there's a chance they have a dark magic book or know a user!"
Bakugou glanced at the dunce-faced man.
"Just help me with something... And I'll lead you to the person! Deal?" Offering a hand to Katsuki, Bakugou hesitated. "Fine.. what is it? as they both shook hands.

"Azariel, did you find your mortal yet?" Y/N asked.
"Why do you care? Since you don't care about the mortal world..." Azariel replied, a touch of annoyance in his voice.
Y/N rolled her eyes but then smirked. "Yeah, you're right, dude. I don't really care about the mortal world, even when we were mortals ourselves," Y/N said playfully, trying to annoy Azariel on purpose. Even though she was a goddess, being immortal could get pretty boring fast.
"Sigh... Did you find yours yet?" Azariel asked, referring to Y/N's own mortal puppet.
"Found what?"
"I-no, I hate you. You know exactly what I'm referring to, Y/N," he responded, filled with annoyance.
"Yeah, yeah, no. Not yet at least... I thought there'd be more people using dark magic who are worthy of my attention."
"What about the people who worship you?" Azariel asked.
Y/N stared at him as if he had offered his own beating heart on a plate. Y/N might as well have eaten it.
"Hell no. I don't want more people worshipping me," Y/N said.
Azariel looked shockingly confused. "Wait, what? I thought you-"
"What? You think my family and I invented so many dark spells and stuff because we love being worshipped? That's just racist to us creatures. Plus, some of us actually want to die-some of us are pretty much suicidal," Y/N said.
A portal suddenly appeared in the realm, and animals began to come through: bunnies and deer. Following them was a beautiful woman who emerged from the portal, reminiscent of Snow White but dressed in a more provocative outfit.
"Great entrance, Yui," Y/N said, recognizing the newcomer as Yui, the Goddess of All Animals and Creatures.
"Now that I think about it, why do gods need such sexualized clothes? Even you, Azariel-aren't you supposed to be holy? Why are you wearing a tight-ass corset?" Y/N teased.
"Okay, I-" Azariel started to respond but was cut off.
"Yeah, Azariel, why do you have that? But I have to say, you look stunning in it!" Yui chimed in, her voice gentle.
"Oh, thank you, so I-" Azariel began, but was interrupted by a loud sound coming from another portal. This one was pitch black, almost like Y/N's portals but with a more ominously emo ahh.
"Is the meeting starting yet? I want to go back to sleep," said Death, Y/N's older cousin.
"Hey, Damien, you look edgier than me as always. The meeting hasn't started yet-" Y/N began, but before they could finish, a bunch of portals appeared, each a different color and type of magic. Gods and goddesses began to come through, and the ground of the sanctum shook. Thrones emerged from the ground, forming a circle around a table made of gold, jewels, and crystals.
"Alright! Hello everyone, welcome! Welcome to the Gods' Contest of Valor! You may all sit down on your thrones, of course! I am Koemi Ramí-"
"BOOO! WE KNOW WHO YOU ARE!" a voice interrupted loudly. Sounds like Y/N.
Koemi sighed and continued, "Alright, alright, settle down. As I was saying, I am Koemi Ramírez, the Goddess of Love, and I will be hosting this grand event. We are here to select mortals who will compete for a single wish, one that can grant anything they desire, even the chance to join us as gods."
Another god shouted, "Get on with it! We don't have all day!"
Koemi smiled through her irritation. "Very well. The rules are simple: each of us will select a mortal from the pool of candidates. We won't look into their pasts or futures. The mortals will then face trials designed to test their strength, cunning, and resolve. The one who emerges victorious will earn the grand wish."
A goddess in a shimmering blue gown raised her hand. "Are there any restrictions on what the wish can be?"
Koemi nodded. "No restrictions. Anything goes. The only limit is their imagination. Now, I know everyone here has already selected their mortals-except Y/N!"
Y/N glared at Koemi, who smiled triumphantly, clearly enjoying embarrassing Y/N. "Okay, tomorrow we'll mark our mortals with a gem placed on their chest, close to their heart. It'll be implanted there and visible to other mortals in the competition. Of course, if they're wearing clothes, you won't see it. So, Y/N~ pick your mortal faster or you might get disqualified~ :3"
Y/N groaned and rolled their eyes at Koemi, visibly annoyed. "That's all, folks! Thank you so much-"
Before Koemi could finish, the gods began to disappear in clouds of enchanted colored smoke, leaving behind their magical residue. "Ugh... so disrespectful..." Koemi muttered as she, too, began to depart, leaving only Y/N behind.
"Fuck... I can't seem to find anyone who's good at dark magic, except for my family who's still alive, but I'm too stubborn to support them. Well, it's not mandatory for the mortal to have dark magic as their power; it can be their tendency. Sigh... I really need a strong candidate for this event. I keep losing to the others in past events..."
"Meow~ You gonna pull a Disney Wish song out of your ass?" Y/N's cat, perched atop the throne, meowed.
"What the-dawg, where have you been? And hell no, you know I wouldn't," Y/N replied.
The cat jumped down into Y/N's lap and settled in, purring contentedly. "How long have you been here?" Y/N asked, petting the kitty.
"Purr~ purr~ Hm, since the meeting started," the cat replied. Y/N petted the kitty more roughly, pulling back its fur and causing it to look mildly annoyed.
Tumblr media
(Example cuz why not)
"You fucking rascal, I've missed you, buddy. You haven't been visiting me in my realm, always going into the mortal world," Y/N said, clearly annoyed.
"Just find me then! Jeez, woman... I've heard you've been-struggling to find a mortal. STOP PULLING BACK MY FACE, LADY-" the cat protested as Y/N continued to pet him, pulling back his fur. "Ehehe- it looks funny, Anyway what did you say?" Y/N asked "I marked some mortals I found, i think they might be worthy for you" "AWH you FUCKING JUST AGHHH!!"
"STOP PULLING BACK MY FURRR!!!!!" the cat yowled.
Y/N stopped petting him and giggled. "Alright, tell me the ones you marked."
The kitty barfed up a tiny crystal ball onto Y/N's hand and Y/N of course gagged a lil. "Here, just watch them and pick who's worthy!" he said.
As the tiny crystal ball began to shine, it summoned a mirror, revealing on the glass the mortals the kitty had marked.

In an abandoned church, Kaminari said, "Whew-kinda spooky, heh!"
Bakugou rolled his eyes as he scanned the surroundings. Kaminari had mentioned that a buddy of his got lost in the church basement, and when Kaminari was close to finding him, he heard a scream and ran like a coward. So, Bakugou was helping him find his friend.
"So chilly... uhh, right this way! Erm..." Kaminari said, leading Bakugou into the darkness. The only source of light they had was Bakugou's lighter.
"Okay, where the fuck is your rascal? My lighter is running out. Why were you he-" Bakugou started to ask, but before he could finish, someone placed a piece of cloth over his mouth from behind. Kaminari watched with a look of regret in his eyes.
Bakugou struggled and managed to knock the person behind him with his elbow he tried to punch kaminari, but the cloth had some chemicals on it, making Bakugou dizzy. He eventually passed out.
"Ugh... What the fuck." Bakugou looked around. He was chained to a wall, his wrists cuffed. He remembered how Kaminari hadn't helped him and had watched him pass out. Without any of his belongings, Bakugou cursed his decision to team up with the rogue.
The room was cold and bleak, with hard concrete and bricked walls. A set of stairs led up to a closed hatch with a lock. "Urgh... ugh..." Bakugou grunted as he tried his best to break free from the metal cuffs. After a struggle, he managed to get them off and rubbed his wrists.
Bakugou climbed the stairs and, using his strength, managed to force open the hatch. The crimson warrior had no trouble with a simple wooden barrier. As he opened the hatch and climbed up, he was confronted with a horrifying scene.
People were caged up-some of the women were helpless and naked, while some of the men had bruises and cuts on their bodies. Bakugou's concern grew as he walked up to one of the cages. He examined a woman who was curled up facing the wall, seemingly lifeless. As he inspected her, he noticed that her private parts had been brutally torn apart. The woman had an umbilical cord leading up to her arms, indicating a baby had been born, but both the baby and the woman were long gone.
Bakugou's heart raced. What the hell was going on in this place? He needed to find out and put a stop to whatever horrific activities were happening here. Can't believe he made a deal with a person maybe responsible for these people.
The room was filled with caged individuals, and Bakugou noticed a set of stairs in the middle of the room. He was about to ascend them when he heard footsteps. Quickly, he hid at the bottom of the stairs.
A pair of red boots began descending the wooden steps. "Ehe... Denki, thank you so much for tricking THE Crimson Warrior! Haha! I can't believe he fell for your obvious act!" said a man with black hair, an almost shaved beard, green eyes, and a golden coat. To Bakugou's shock, the man was wearing his red cape, a gift from his mother when he was a child.
"Eheh... Yeah..." Denki replied, his tone nervous and regretful.
"What's wrong, kid? You got half of what we earned-aren't you grateful?" the man in the golden coat said.
"What? No, no, sir Gardinier! I-I just... can you please- I-just..." Kaminari stammered, clearly unsure of how to voice his concerns, knowing that Sir Gardinier is a powerful man.
"Spit it out," Gardinier's tone grew ominous.
"Can we bury the people who got caged up in here? I just... I want to pay respect to them. I know they didn't pay their debt on time, but please-" Kaminari's voice quivered, revealing his inner turmoil.
Gardinier's expression darkened, and he stared at Kaminari with cold eyes. "Bury them? They were criminals. They had their chance. They chose their fate."
Kaminari looked down, unable to meet Gardinier's gaze. "I understand, sir. I just... feel it's the right thing to do."
Bakugou, still hidden, clenched his fists. He knew he needed to act quickly. Gardinier and Kaminari's conversation had revealed the depth of their cruelty and the true nature of their scheme. As soon as the opportunity presented itself, Bakugou planned to intervene and put a stop to their vile activities.
"Check on the crimson guy. I don't want to speak of this again," Gardinier ordered.
Kaminari, squeezing his way through the cramped space of the cages, approached the hatch with a look of horror on his face as he saw the lifeless forms of the people inside. He was shocked to see Bakugou had broken free.
"Denki! What's taking you so long? Open the hatch, I'm not hearing a cree-AGH! WHAT?! ERGH!" Gardinier's voice turned to panic as Bakugou pinned him down onto the hard wooden floor.
"ERUGH! You bastard! Get off me!" Gardinier yelled, struggling as Bakugou punched and pushed him onto the floor.
"SOLDIERS! HELP! URGH!" Gardinier shouted in desperation, but before he could call for help, he felt a sharp pain.
In a sudden twist of fate, Denki appeared, his hands gripping a bloodied sword. With a grim expression, he swung the sword with precision. Gardinier's head rolled onto the floor, his body collapsing as blood pooled around him. The crimson warrior's fierce struggle had come to an end, and Denki, though visibly distressed, stood over the fallen villain, having taken a dark step to ensure justice was served.
"Why... why did you help me?" Bakugou asked, his crimson eyes still burning with anger.
"I... I just wanted to help. I-" Kaminari began, but his voice faltered under the weight of his guilt and fear.
"SIR GARDINIER! WHERE ARE YOU? SIR!" A voice called out urgently from outside the room.
Bakugou's eyes narrowed as he glanced toward the sound. "We don't have much time. If more of them come, we'll be in serious trouble. Why did you really help me? What's your angle?"
Kaminari, visibly shaken, took a deep breath. "I... I couldn't stand what was happening here. I knew I made a mistake helping Gardinier, and I wanted to fix it. I just... I wanted to make things right, even if it meant risking my own life."
Bakugou's expression softened slightly, though his anger remained. "Well, you've got a lot to make up for. But right now, we need to get out of here before more of them show up. Can you help me free these people?"
Kaminari nodded, his resolve firm despite the fear. "Yes. Let's get them out of here."
Together, they moved swiftly to unlock the cages, working to free the imprisoned individuals as quickly as possible. The sound of approaching footsteps grew louder, heightening their urgency to escape and ensure the safety of those they had rescued.
As Bakugou and Kaminari worked to free the captives, the distant sound of heavy, booted footsteps grew louder.
"Move faster!" Bakugou barked, his fingers working furiously to unlock the last of the cages. The freed captives, though disoriented, began to escape towards the exit.
The heavy door to the room crashed open, and a squad of armored soldiers stormed in, their weapons ready. Bakugou's eyes blazed with a fierce intensity.
"Looks like we've got company," he growled, grabbing a heavy iron bar from the corner. Kaminari, his sword stained with blood, braced himself.
The soldiers charged, but Bakugou met them head-on with a brutal ferocity. He swung the iron bar with bone-crushing force, his blows landing with sickening thuds. The first wave of soldiers fell, their armor caved in and their bodies crumpled under his relentless assault.
"Come on, then! I'm not done with you!" Bakugou roared, his voice a harsh growl as he smashed another soldier's helmet into his skull. Blood and metal flew, and the floor became slick with gore.
Kaminari, though still rattled, fought alongside Bakugou with a grim determination. He swung his sword in wide, lethal arcs, slicing through armor and flesh with ruthless efficiency. Each strike was precise, severing limbs and opening gaping wounds.
The soldiers fought back with desperation, but Bakugou's rage was unstoppable. He swung the iron bar like a battering ram, crushing ribs and splintering bones. His attacks were unrelenting, each swing a brutal testament to his fury.
"Stay out of my way!" Bakugou shouted, deflecting a soldier's strike with a violent twist of the bar, sending the soldier sprawling. He grabbed another soldier by the throat, lifting him off the ground and slamming him against the wall with a sickening crunch.
Kaminari, his face set in a mask of grim resolve, slashed through the soldiers with cold precision. He drove his sword into the chest of one soldier, twisting it before yanking it out and moving to the next target. His blade was a blur of deadly steel, cutting through the enemy ranks.
The soldiers, overwhelmed by the brutal onslaught, began to falter. Their numbers dwindled as Bakugou and Kaminari pressed their attack. The room was filled with the sounds of violence-metal clashing, screams of agony, and the heavy, thudding blows of Bakugou's iron bar.
One soldier, seeing the carnage and realizing the battle was lost, attempted to flee. Bakugou, with a feral snarl, intercepted him. He hurled the iron bar with deadly accuracy, pinning the soldier to the wall with a sickening thud. The soldier gasped, struggling weakly as Bakugou approached, his eyes cold and merciless.
"You think you can run from me?" Bakugou growled, delivering a final, crushing blow with his fist that ended the soldier's suffering.
Breathing heavily, Bakugou surveyed the aftermath of the battle, the room littered with fallen soldiers and the splattered remains of the once-proud soldiers. He turned to Kaminari, his expression hard but focused.
"Is everyone out? We need to get moving before more show up."
Kaminari, his face smeared with sweat and blood, nodded vigorously. "They're all free. Let's go!"
With a final, contemptuous look at the carnage, Bakugou and Kaminari led the way, guiding the freed prisoners towards the exit. The distant echoes of men of Gardinier and the harsh sounds of their escape faded behind them as they made their way out of the hellish scene.
Bakugou and Kaminari sprinted through the dense forest, the moonlight casting eerie shadows across the underbrush. The night was still, except for the occasional rustle of leaves and the distant calls of nocturnal creatures. Their breaths came in ragged gasps, the adrenaline of the battle still coursing through their veins.
"Keep moving!" Bakugou barked, his voice barely audible over the sounds of their pounding footsteps. The forest was dense and twisted, with gnarled trees reaching out like skeletal fingers. Branches snagged at their clothes, and the undergrowth crunched underfoot.
Kaminari glanced over his shoulder, eyes wide with fear. "Are we clear? Did they follow us?"
"We're far enough away now. Wait... damn it, my stuff," Bakugou said, frustration clear in his voice.
"Oh right... your stuff is-wait, it's with me!" Kaminari said, seemingly nonchalant. Bakugou looked at him, confused, since Kaminari was only carrying a decently large shoulder bag, not a backpack.
Kaminari suddenly pulled out Bakugou's big axe from the bag. Bakugou's eyes widened in shock. "WHAT THE-"
Kaminari grinned, his nervousness barely concealed. "Here! It's from my-just kidding! I didn't actually put it there. I really did grab it before we left."
Bakugou, still stunned, reached for the axe but hesitated as Kaminari's joke sank in. "Seriously, don't mess around like that. We were almost killed back there. I needed this axe!"
Kaminari's smile faltered. "Sorry, man. I didn't mean to add to the stress. I thought it'd be funny, but I see now it wasn't the right time."
Bakugou grabbed the axe, his irritation evident. "Just don't pull crap like that again. We're lucky to be alive.. How'd you pull my axe from that tiny bag?!..."
Kaminari shifted uncomfortably, but tell Bakugou The reason, "So, uh... I'm one of the chosen mortals. By the Goddess of the Stars and Cosmic Guidance. She enchanted my bag, but she didn't tell me what it was for. I figured out that it has infinite storage. I wasn't sure how it worked at first, and I didn't want to bring it up until I was sure I can trust you. I thought it might be useful in a pinch. I just didn't expect it to be this useful."
Bakugou glared at Kaminari, his eyes cold and unforgiving. Kaminari's face was a mix of regret and relief. As Kaminari opened his mouth to speak, Bakugou cut him off.
"I still don't trust you. I don't forgive you for what you've done," Bakugou said, his voice sharp.
Kaminari's head hung low, guilt evident in his posture. "I understand," he mumbled.
"But if you want to keep breathing," Bakugou continued, his tone low and dangerous, "tell me where that person is who knows about dark magic. And give me the rest of my stuff from your infinite bag. Maybe then, I won't kill you right here."
Kaminari nodded quickly, scrambling to retrieve Bakugou's belongings from the enchanted bag. "I-I'll tell you everything I know. I'll lead you to the person Like I promise!" Bakugou took the items from Kaminari, his expression hard. "Lead the way," he said, not bothering to hide the hostility in his voice. "And if you try anything funny, I won't hesitate." Kaminari swallowed hard, nodding vigorously. "Understood. I'll take you there. Just please, let's move before we draw any more attention." as they walked Kaminari leading the Way, Towards the Mysticland of Scales Where dragons is very uncommon there.

Tumblr media
after all the time that had passed, griffyn assumed their camp kiss would remain nothing more than a fond memory. it seemed as though the time to address what had happened between them came and went, and he would've been content just continuing on as friends like they had been for all these years. it wasn't like he'd remained hung up on lou, unable to move on or pursue any connections with anyone outside of him, but he couldn't lie and say he didn't return to that night every once in a while when he was feeling lonely. it stood as a testament to what could've been, what they could've had had lou not been so terrified to explore that side of himself, and so it remained bittersweet. at first it had seemed like lux was driving a wedge between them, taking up all of lou's time and attention so that very little remained for griffyn, which he could understand. she was the shiny new toy, and he was just a used up older model that barely even worked anymore. that's why he'd been so surprised to receive the invitation from lux, but he now saw that she was a lot more calculated than she came off. his lips tugged up into a smirk as lou relented to indulge him in a bit of nostalgia, knowing it was likely more for lux's benefit than his own, though he wasn't about to argue as long as he was getting what he wanted. "thought it'd be more appropriate than spin the bottle," he chuckled. though he was still putting on a prickly exterior, griffyn didn't think it'd take long for him to soften up, especially with liquor and lux involved. either he'd get drunk enough not to care, or she'd tug on his puppet strings in such a way to get him to enjoy himself, and either way, griffyn won. "whatever happened to ladies first, huh? so pushy..." his eyes flickered over to lux, checking in to make sure she was still on board before he continued. "i'll have you do the honors, miss. since he seems so desperate..."
Tumblr media
despite the slight hiccup, things seemed to be back on track, and anyway, a victory wasn't ever satisfying if it wasn't born from some sort of struggle. she'd have lou exactly where she wanted him soon enough, even if she had to drag him there kicking and screaming. he might not have been able to see that this was all in his best interest, that sometimes the path to true happiness was painful, but lux knew what was best for him. she'd proven it time and time again; hopefully one day lou would be able to accept her wishes as the word of god and follow it without questioning her, but she was perfectly prepared to combat his hesitance until then. the way she saw it, they were gearing up for a perfect night. she had her pretty little pet, calmed and tamed by her domineering presence, and a wildcard thrown into the mix to liven up their dynamic and give her a refreshing change of pace. much about griffyn's character was still a mystery to her, but she'd witnessed firsthand how he and lou's personality's contrasted and complimented each other's, which was enough for her to believe the three of them together could be truly explosive. he was more forceful, more open, and seemingly up for anything. just watching them go back and forth was entertaining enough, but she was grateful when griffyn redirected some of the attention to her, making sure she had an equal part in all their antics going forward. "hmmmm..." she sat up straighter, taking another sip to stall for time as the gears in her head began working overtime. giving her that amount of power was akin to letting a stray dog loose in a butcher shop, a myriad of options laid out before her that she had a hard time choosing between. "i dare you... to get him hard." her smirk matched griffyn's as she shifted her gaze from lou over to him, her eyes sparkling with mischief. there was a slight possibility that lou would refuse, but she strongly doubted it. not when it was her giving orders, and he knew her expectations were high.
Tumblr media
lux's validation was really all that he needed to pull himself out of his self-inflicted pity party, he'd already made a fool out of himself with his back-and-forth argument with griffyn over nothing, or at least it was nothing to lux which meant it had to mean nothing to him. it wasn't like him to not give her exactly what she wanted and he knew that she wanted to see something happen between himself and his old friend, yet lou's paranoia and apprehension about what his attraction to griffyn meant was too strong for even his dedication to lux to fully distract him. her praise felt so good, momentarily washing him clean of all the self-doubt that threatened to swallow him whole. his pale face grew pink from their joint compliment, though he turned his smile towards lux in silent thanks. he was jealous of how shameless they could both be, at least if griffyn were trying to flirt with lux they could do it together, using the excuse of their joint attraction to the woman to justify any touching that they would end up doing but because the attention was all on him, there wasn't a way he could play anything off as being spur of the moment. parallel to griffyn, lou took a long glug from his glass, almost polishing off what he'd poured moments before in one swallow. he needed the liquid courage if he wanted to try and survive the night. "original." he couldn't help but remark snarkily towards griffyn. he didn't know what he'd been hoping for when he suggested they play a game but it seemed in the moment to be the perfect solution to lux's boredom, and it probably still was only they were likely going to switch it around again to try and coax him out from his shell, kicking and screaming if they had to." fine." he said as gently as he could, though the bitterness from his tone still be weeded out with little digging. "guess you'll want me to go first, right?" he smiled, lips drew taut as he glanced back over to lux to make sure he hadn't frustrated her again with the lines he danced across. after downing what was left in his glass, lou rubbed his thumb around the damp rim and shrugged his shoulders as if he wasn't phased at all. "dare."

 VULNERABLE
(fanfic)
Pairing: Sevika x reader
Pronouns used: none
Gendered terms: girl
Genre: angst+fluff
Summary: During a mission gone sideways, you get injured. Sevika, unused to the feeling of ache she experiences in your state of pain, is torn between avoiding you and never leaving your side when you finally wake.
// slight description of injury, thoughts of death/implied minor character death
Tumblr media
Sevika was used to death, it was a part of her job after all. She'd killed thousands of people without hesitation, nonchalantly picking them up after to dispose of them as if she weren't carrying a corpse. So why did the sight of your limp body make her want to gouge her own eyes out?
The mission was supposed to go smoothly, in and out. But of course, the Firelights just had to intervene. What was initially an under ten-minute job, turned into an at least half-hour fight.
Even then, they were, at best, an inconvenience.
It wasn't until Sevika caught sight of a new weapon, or at least she assumed it was a weapon. A small metal sphere with a button on each side. It seemed that the person holding it was trying to keep it hidden.
As she was questioning its use, the woman carrying it swiftly clicked both buttons with her index finger and thumb, dropping it to the ground before retreating with the other Firelights.
To most, this would seem like a victory; the Firelights had given up on sabotaging their plan. To Sevika, however, it was an instant fight-or-flight trigger. But it was already too late, the miniature ball they left behind erupted instantly
Since she'd been somewhat expecting it, Sevika managed to find shelter quickly.
And that was her first mistake.
Yes, she was upset. More than upset, she was damn-near livid. The Firelights had once again interfered with something that wasn't their business, and screwed over yet another shimmer deposit.
Somehow all the anger seeping through her body managed to cloud her mind enough to forget about everyone else around her, including you.
That was her second mistake.
It was odd now, looking back. You, the one constant in Sevika's life since she started working for Silco, weren't the first thing on her mind when a bomb detonated right beside you.
Her third mistake was freezing in place when she heard you scream.
Instead of jumping to help you, drag you out of danger, anything, Sevika stayed in the safety of her shelter. It’s what led her to her current situation, at the edge of her bed with you in it. Bandages adorned your body, most visible skin covered in tiny scratches.
Her thumb made contact with your cheek, gently grazing over a wound small enough to be considered unnecessary for patching. According to the nurses that worked for Silco at least, if it were up to Sevika every single wound on your body would be taken care of with full attention. 
Without your constant chatting, her thoughts became louder, unbearably so. Each moment she sat beside you, her head swarmed with ways she could've saved you.
Sevika wasn't used to feeling guilt, she wasn't used to most of the emotions you made her feel.
As she continued to get lost in her thoughts, your eyes slowly fluttered open, squinting as you tried to get accustomed to the brightness. She only snapped out of her trance when your delicate fingers grazed over her calloused ones.
She didn't say anything, and neither did you. Both of you remained in comfortable silence while Sevika fiddled with your fingers- a habit you usually performed on her, not the other way around.
"Hey." You spoke in a mere whisper, yet, it didn't matter how quiet you were, you gained Sevika's complete focus. She finally shifted to meet your gaze.
Her expression was unreadable while yours was soft, a timid smile tugging at the ends of your lips. It honestly just made the nauseating feeling in her stomach worse.
"Watcha thinking about?" Your ability to bounce back into the sweet girl she fell for never ceased to amaze her. Sevika shrugged; truth was, she wasn't sure what she was thinking of either.
You hummed, "Wanna just stay like this?" She nodded, letting a bit of the tension her body built up go.
Tumblr media
For the next few days getting ahold of Sevika seemed virtually impossible, which was saying a lot considering that less than two weeks ago you were joined at the hip.
"Not now, I'm busy." Her overused excuse had left you furious, enough that everyone around you was well aware of your sour mood.
Thankfully, most of your wounds had healed due to Singe's help, but you were still temporarily out of commission for physical tasks. You knew not being put back in the field immediately was for the best, though it didn't make sitting at a desk and completing paperwork all day any more appealing.
Your head rested against the wooden desk Silco placed you in, neck at a slight angle as you watched how your pen moved between your fingers. As you resumed toying with whatever objects were in your reach, a gentle thud against your table caught your attention.
When you look up, you're surprised to see none other than Sevika. She was dropping off more papers for you to read over. Her gaze averted yours, leaving as quickly as she came.
"Not even gonna look at me, huh?" You got up, arms crossed. The brute paused but didn't say anything.
Even more irritated at was seemingly her indifference, you walked towards her.
"Well? Got nothing to say?" It was obvious you were trying to get a rise of her, if anyone saw you purposefully trying to piss her off they would've called you mad.
Anyone would've been shocked to see her turn to you, calm as ever. "I've got a job to take care of, I'm bu-" "For fucks sake, how stupid do you think I am?" Surprised by your demeanor, Sevika stood silent while you continued your rant.
"You know, if you're going to lie about why you're avoiding me, you could at least come up with original excuses."
"Or- here's a bright idea, stop making shit up and just tell me what's going on."
Now it was her turn to say something, anything. But she just stood there, eerily quiet.
Your eyes started to burn while you waited for her to speak. Was this it? Was this her way of breaking up with you? It was the only way to explain her behavior at this point.
Oh, how you couldn't be further from the truth.
Ever since your accident, Sevika has been experiencing a non-stop internal argument. The urge to never leave your side again isn't anything she can't deal with, although more intense than usual, she's always been protective of you. The problem arose with the feeling of guilt, fear even, fear she might hurt you.
Unable to sort through her own emotions, she started pushing you away. But that just worsened the problem.
Officially giving up on trying, you moved to sit back down with a defeated sigh. Or- you tried to sit back down until a firm yet gentle grasp latched onto your forearm.
Sevika whirled you around, wrapping her arms around your waist. "I don't want to hurt you." She spoke in a hushed tone.
Attempting not to succumb to her hold, you looked up at her with a puzzled expression, wordlessly demanding a proper explanation.
She inhaled before continuing; Sevika wasn't great with words, but she'd try for you. "Last month's mission, I could've saved you." Her prosthetic arm inched towards one of the bandages on your midsection, grazing over the fabric delicately. "I'm sorry. Shouldn't have avoided you either."
The gentleness she carried out in her interaction with you didn't fail to make your heart flip, it never did. You always preened in how much kinder she was with you than others.
"Sev..." Your palms moved to set on her chest "It's impossible to stay mad at you, y'know." "Oh?" She chuckled at your statement.
"I'm fine now." You reassured her, pecking the corner of her lips.
Sevika didn't say anything, she didn't stop staring at your either. You knew how stubborn she was, how hard it'd be to convince her you wouldn't shatter when you went back into the field.
"How about... you keep me company for the rest of the day? Cause I know damn well that you don't actually have any work to get to."
She scoffed, lightheartedly, "You know my schedule?" a subtle smirk on her face when you nodded proudly.
"Ignore me again and I'll have your head."
"Counting on it."

An irritating pattern I've observed in this season of Miraculous Ladybug is how it feels no one really earned anything this season. Aside from the obvious Gabriel not earning his victory in the season finale and how Chat Noir acting like Ladybug's last hope when he's not as reliable as he should be to make that difference, I'd argue Ladybug also didn't quite deserve that shallow comfort either as she did do stuff that would've killed trust in a normal partnership. Her appeasing Chat Noir in certain episodes feels hollow when she proceeds to continue as she does (knowing how it affects him) without really changing things. Hell, I wouldn't even call her a good enough guardian for Su Han to just trust her with the miracle box unsupervised (girl tries, but she clearly isn't handling it well). Alya, as awesome as she is, I didn't feel she quite earned her place as a permanent fox when she did get that role (in optigami, making a bad call by recruiting senti nino and it was Marinette who had to clean up that mess). She got a few good moments like in senti bubbler, but then her role got sacked unceremoniously at the finale without doing much with it. Nino did not earn learning about Rena Furtive at all. No new hero earned their miraculous at penalteam. Zoe didn't earn shit. And Luka sure as hell did not earn learning about the main duo's identities and proceeding to not do anything useful about it (he could've stopped Ladybug from gaslighting Chat Noir im Ephemeral but he did nothing, which is, in retrospect, worse than Marinette's actions in that episode).
Honestly, nothing important was built up properly so when the main event happens, it feels like it came out of nowhere with no basis whatsoever. Funny how Astruc once said something about how an idea is not a story... he had a lot of interesting ideas, but couldn't weave it to a story that made sense.
To me, Season 4 just felt like filler, even more than Season 3.
Sure, there were a couple of minor plot twists and reveals, but only a handful of them actually factored into that mess of a finale, and like you said, nothing really felt earned. A lot of stuff in the finale just happened with barely any buildup (Alya’s cover being blown, Ladybug “apologizing” to Cat Noir, Felix being relevant to the plot again, and Gabriel’s unearned victory).
But the most damning thing of all is the fact that a lot of this could have been avoided with the right writing. The writers had twenty-six episodes to balance out all of these character arcs and subplots, and what did they do with this precious time? Waste most of it on either Unfunny Marinette Slapstick, Angstdrien Depreste whining about how much his life sucks, introducing two entirely new characters that added nothing to the overall plot, giving Chloe more spotlight episodes than Gabriel and Felix combined when Chloe also added nothing to the story, throwing in seven new heroes that will end up being written off by the end of the season anyway, a pointless “What if?...” episode, and making an episode about some grumpy old man as a stand-in for the critics of the show.
The writers had plenty of opportunities and a lot of time to focus on a lot of the stuff they set up, but they settled on spinning their wheels instead, and as a result, like you said, nothing actually felt earned. Very little actually happened this season, and I’m pretty sure it was because the writers knew they were getting a fifth season, so they felt like they could slum it for a year before they actually had to put effort into writing a story arc, judging from what the first two episodes of Season 5 are setting up.
Sure, most TV writers can only dream of getting a network deal that good and would want to do as much as they can, but not the writers of this show. But hey, better late than never, am I right?

I've been rewatching ATLA several times lately and this time I especially ended up wondering a lot about Iroh and Ozai's past and characters in general. I just can't help but think it weird that Ozai is the ultimate trashbag of a humanbeing while Iroh ended up preaching harmony and peace. It just doesn't make any sense. These guys are brothers. They were brought up by the same parents, in the same fascist imperialistic nation, they were taught the same values growing up. You're trying to tell me the difference is that Iroh was destined to be the person he eventually came to be, but Ozai was just born evil? No, I don't think so.
I have two hot takes that I'm gonna elaborate:
1. Iroh had a guidance Ozai lacked
2. Ozai was the less favored son
(Disclaimer: I haven't read the comics yet so I don't know how deep they've already gone into this subject at some point. I'm trying to interpret and analyze the stuff that I got from the animated series only. If anything I say contradicts what has already been confirmed in the comics, feel free to correct me.)
Hear me out. Iroh wasn't born a saint. Everyone is aware of this, especially Iroh himself. He laid siege to Ba Sing Se for 2 years, costing the Fire Nation and Earth Kingdom thousands of lives. Everyone knew that if the Fire Nation took over the capital, it meant almost ultimate victory for the Fire Nation. He even went as far as making a offhand sadistic jokes about burning the city to the ground in that letter to Zuko and Azula.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Iroh acknowledges it himself; He was a different man.
So what changed?
Yes, his son died. It broke and shattered him from the inside, making him drop all efforts to continue fighting in the war. To continue what had been his lifelong ambition, what he believed to be his destiny. He had a literal vision about taking over Ba Sing Se when he was a child, and that had been what he'd been pursuing ever since. But the death of his son managed to crumble all of that into nothingness. How is that possible?
Don't get me wrong. I think it's completely valid. I just don't understand how Lu Ten and Iroh could've had such a loving and caring relationship in the first place, when that's clearly something unusual among the royal family. Ozai burned and banished Zuko without a second thought, not to mention all the other shit he did to him growing up. Ozai didn't give two shits about Azula either, he only ever intended to use her as his weapon. Doesn't seem too surprising, if you ask me. Azulon didn't hesitate to demand that Ozai kill his own son if he wanted the throne. That's the man that raised Ozai, so it's just logical that Ozai learned that behavior and those values from his own father.
Even 9 year old Azula thinks it laughable that Iroh would fall apart at the death of his son. She is a child and this is how she thinks. The reason Zuko doesn't think like this is because he's had the guidance of his mother, unlike Azula. This is the kind of mentality these kids grow up with. They grew up with war and so did Iroh and Ozai.
Tumblr media
So why was Iroh's relationship with Lu Ten so different? Where did Iroh experience the kind of compassion and love he passed on to his own son, that Ozai definitely didn't? People act on how they've come to learn, so where did Iroh learn to care about his son to a point that it made him give up on his lifelong ambition?
Let's review a very crucial information we have on Iroh and Ozai as siblings: They have a huge age gap.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Frankly, I'm guessing about 10-20 years. Looks more like 20 to me, but that could also be Iroh's greater amount of endured pain and war making him look older than he actually is. But no one can deny that an age gap is definitely there. Which can also indicate they had different upbringings, despite having grown up in the same family as brothers.
What does this mean? Well, that's just me theorizing now, but I can definitely imagine that Iroh had someone, a family member maybe, there for him who wasn't around or didn't care to be when Ozai grew up. There must've been someone there who gave Iroh emotional security and guidance throughout his upbringing. Who? That's up to imagination. A friend of the family? A friendly uncle? His own mother ((or father))? (The last two things worked out for Zuko in the end, didn't they?) Otherwise I can't really explain myself why Iroh had enough values to love the way he loved Lu Ten, while Ozai clearly didn't give two fucks about his children at any point in his life.
Iroh was the firstborn son, the one who had a vision very early in his life that his destiny was to take over Ba Sing Se. Probably the one who got to have a family member care about him enough to show him how to love.
Tumblr media
(I like to point this out a lot because I find it very interesting, and very significant. Please A:TLA give us more info on Iroh's past!!)
Which brings me to my second take: Ozai was the less favored son.
Iroh was clearly a son to be proud of. He was a master firebender, the "Dragon of the West", if you will. He apparently had a vision as a boy that he'd conquer the most "impenetrable city" in the world. He probably lived up to his parent's expectations for his whole life, especially having no sibling to be compared to for a significant part of his life. He broke through the outter wall of Ba Sing Se during his siege. Yada yada yada, you get my point. He's the best son they could've wished for.
And Ozai? As far as I know, he barely even has any military achievements. Taking over Ba Sing Se was Azula's doing. While Iroh laid siege to the capital, he was at home chilling in the palace. He's the younger brother to an established hero and was never meant to be firelord. Now, I haven't read the comics for more info on Ozai's biography, but this man barely had a chance to live up to his parent's standards with Iroh as an older brother. If my theory is correct, Ozai also didn't have any person to provide him emotional guidance throughout his life. (*cough* like Azula)
The logical outcome is: infinite jealousy.
And when Ozai suggests to Azulon that he revoke Iroh's birthright to become firelord, this is Azulon's answer:
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Azulon doesn't even hesitate to call Ozai out on his bullshit. He doesn't hesitate to take offense at the suggestion of betraying Iroh, and he even seems to care about Iroh's suffering. Not to mention that Azulon is overall annoyed with Ozai's request for an audience and sends the rest of Ozai's family away as soon as he can, to get whatever it is Ozai wants over with.
I could also mention the fact that Ozai tried to impress Azulon with his daughter's skills (Azula, even named after him) and the overall strained relationship these two seem to exhibit. It's obviously very different from Azulon's relationship with Iroh, if the way he talks about said man is anything to show for.
What if Azulon treated Ozai the same way Ozai treated Zuko? (Probably without the physical abuse, but you get my point.) What if this is where Ozai learned to treat a "useless" kid like shit, maybe also in a way to cope with how he was treated himself?
Getting deeper into the fact that Ozai is rather a loser compared to Iroh, without any big military achievements and without value for anything beyond that, this also explains a lot about Ozai's constant need to establish his dominance.
First; Becoming Firelord through radical manners (you know, killing his own son or killing his own father)
Second; Publicly burning and banishing his own son whom he considers a weakling, who dared to speak up in his war room. Doing this to have everyone know that he doesn't associate himself with weakness and that he will not ever tolerate any form of disrespect.
Third; The whole Phoenix King act. No one can tell me this isn't a madman's doing. This is literally to show off that he is the most powerful person in the world.
Ozai is so obsessed with proving himself and his superiority to everyone, including himself and probably Iroh too. This makes most sense if we consider that he probably lived in his brother's shadow for his whole life, ignored by probably every guiding figure he's ever had in his life, maybe even considered a laughingstock by his own father.
Perhaps this is also the reason Ozai didn't have any problem with Iroh accompanying Zuko in banishment. His brother, the hero in whose shadow he grew up, and his son, the failure he'd wanted out of the way for a long time already. It would erase Iroh's image that made him superior to him, once and for all. For himself and the world. I believe that branding him a traitor was the biggest satisfaction Ozai had ever experienced in his life.
I absolutely despise Ozai with every fibre of my heart, but it amazes me how ATLA continues to leave so much room for interpretation and explanation for a character as despicable as him. Writing this, even had me feel sympathy for him at some point. Feel free to disagree with me or add anything, I'm eager to hear everyone's thoughts about Ozai and Iroh's backstories because I'm geniuinely very curious.

Before I die, I'm tryna fuck you, baby

Tumblr media
You were at a volleyball tournament that your cousin was playing at. You had to support him since you hadn't seen him in a year or so and his team was playing against the nationally known Fukurodani volleyball team. The actual game hadn't started yet but you were there early because you wanted to cheer him up before he had to go play.
"You're gonna do amazing, cuz. I believe in you!"
Your aunt's eldest son looked down at you with a smile, embracing you in a hug of gratitude. "Thanks, y/n. I hope we win but if we lose then we'll lose with dignity. The country's 4th top ace is in their team after all."
"Wait really? That's insane. I wonder what he looks like."
You didn't know that that curiosity of yours would be solved in the next 5 minutes. When it was time to go to the stands, you bumped into a quite beefy (in your words) person's chest and judging by the number 4 on the front of his shirt, you guessed that he was on one of the teams in the tournament.
"Hey, hey, hey, be careful, pretty lady." He had a pretty playful voice and you looked up to see a smirk on his handsome face.
"Oh. Excuse me, sir." You bowed your head and walked on when he stepped aside for you. But you couldn't help but look behind you as you continued your journey and the grey and black back of his head stayed in your mind the whole walk to the stands.
Once you got there, you saw that the teams were already on the court, in their huddles, getting themselves fired up for the match. People were cheering all around you for their respective teams and you called out your cousin's name in support. He looked up and found you instantly, putting a thumbs up in the air.
The Fukurodani team did a small warcry before dispersing to their positions and when you saw who their wing spiker was, your jaw dropped. The smirk that was on his face was a bit different that the one you saw earlier and as soon as the whistle blew, you figured out why.
The match was intense and while you were meant to be looking at your cousin, your eyes were stuck on the wing spiker, who you realised was the 4th ranked ace your cousin was talking about. He flew and slammed each and every ball that was set to him and after each spike, he let out a cry of victory. You thought it was quite attractive, seeing how fired up he got but at the end of the match, your heart broke a little for your cousin seeing how they were beaten 2 sets to 1.
"I'm so sorry, cuz, you'll get them next time."
You spent the next 20 minutes cheering him up and catching up with him before his team had to leave for their next match. Before you knew it, the tournament was over and you bid your cousin adieu as their team bus left for their home school.
"Was that your boyfriend, pretty lady?"
You gasped when a sudden presence appeared beside you. It was the beefy dude. Aka the wing spiker, ace and captain of Fukurodani. "Wow, when did you get here?"
"I've been watching since the other team entered the bus. Wanna answer my question?"
You shifted your position to face him and damn, you could've swooned right there. His nose bridge was perfectly straight and the only curve was the upturn between his nostrils. His lips were a luscious baby pink and his eyes a golden brown. Coupled with his confident aura, this man was hot.
"Enjoying the view? I don't blame you."
You smiled in amusement, "If you must know, that wasn't my boyfriend, that was my cousin."
"Oh, well that's good news for me."
"And may I ask why?"
He looked you up and down before biting his lip and saying, "That means you're free to take."
You couldn't help but get embarrassed at his statement and suddenly, you wondered why you hadn't called a taxi yet. "You're very... confident with your words sir."
"It's my specialty." He smirked again but this time, it was a bit lazy, which made him seem more attractive to you. "Are you waiting for someone?"
You got out your phone and started to call a local cab agency, "No, I've got to order a cab."
Unexpectedly, he gently took the phone from your hands and ended the call just as the number had answered. "Don't worry about it, sweetheart. I've got a car."
Even though you had just met this guy, you decided to accept his offer. He told you that his name was Bokuto Koutarou, which had a nice ring to it once you got used to the pronunciation. You told him your address and before you knew it, you were back home. "Hey, I didn't even give you directions."
"Well, sweetheart, that's because I live right next door to you." He said it so casually as if it was a mystery why you hadn't met each other till then.
"What?! Since when?"
"We moved in last month but since I'm always having practice, I usually come back home later than everyone else in the neighbourhood. Anyways, it was nice meeting you, pretty lady. I'll be sure to see you again."
You exited his car and walked to your porch chuckling at the odds. You had a feeling there was more to happen than you thought.
Weeks went by and it turned out that your room was directly across Bokuto's, which meant that you could wave to each other through your windows every morning when you got ready. He'd be wearing his uniform to go to his school and so would you when you saw each other before leaving.
He didn't take his car though, which meant that you couldn't get any more car rides from him. But it was probably for the best since you couldn't stop having dirty thoughts about him. It's how your day would start, seeing as you imagined having his school tie wrapped around your neck while he pulled you towards his face so you could-
See?
Sometimes you would have conversations through your windows but they were often short seeing as you were both in your final year and had to study for the last exams and for some reason, everytime he cut your chats short to go back to the books, it made your heart pound.
But it wasn't to say that it wasn't the same for him. Seeing you in that short, plaid skirt did something to him and he didn't particularly enjoy having a boner while going to Fukurodani High.
One day, he came back home early since there wasn't any practice and saw you changing through your window. Well, not exactly, but he could see your silhouette through your thin curtains and my, my, did he not almost drool.
You took off your shirt first and threw it on your chair, then your skirt came off next. The curve of your spine blended perfectly with the rounded shape of your butt and he subconsciously bit his lip while his eyes stayed glued to your form. He guessed that you were now only in your underwear and the thigh high socks you had to wear and his pants immediately felt tighter at the image. "Fuck."
Before you continued to take anything else off, he turned away and went to go have a cold shower. Deep down, he was nervous wreck. The confidence was natural to him but when it came to you... it seemed that it was wearing thin.
Only a few days went by and Bokuto caught you every time after school when you were changing. He felt like a pervert for using the short scene to masturbate every single night.
That saturday, your mother asked you to go take over some muffins to the house next door, because she had met the parents of the home earlier that week. You were fine with it until you realised that it was the Bokuto Residence and you would see... him.
Softly, you knocked on the door and unbeknownst to you, a shirtless Bokuto Koutarou answered the door. Both your eyes widened, his with shock and yours with embarrassment. He was sweating and you watched as a few drops travelled down his hard chest, six-pack abs and into his shorts via his very prominent v-line. "Woah..."
"Hey, hey, hey. Nice to see you in front of me again, pretty lady."
He propped his elbow on the side of the door so you could see his laterals and biceps become more prominent and you felt yourself swallow. "Uh- my, uh- mom. Cupcakes. Bring over. I–"
He took the container from you and opened it, while raising an eyebrow. Inside were red velvet cupcakes, with white, cream icing on top and they looled good so he took one. One bite in, he closed his eyes and moaned, "Mmm, sweetheart, that's delicious."
When he opened his eyes, they were lazier as he licked the icing on his lip off. "T-thanks. I'll tell her that..."
You left immediately after that and as soon as you entered your room, jumped onto your bed and screamed into the pillow. Even Bokuto heard it from his kitchen while finished his 3rd cupcake and he furrowed his eyebrows.
You couldn't believe you saw him like that. He looked so... hot. His black and white hair was drenched in sweat and instead of classically being styled up, it fell over his forehead. Not to mention his amazing body and the... the veins that disappeared into his shorts.
"What the hell? What just happened?"
You stared at the ceiling for longer than you thougt and before you knew it, it was nighttime. Looking over to Bokuto's window, you saw that it wasn't covered by curtains. His bedroom door opened and he plopped onto his bed without noticing you. You were about to greet when he flopped onto his back and suddenly, his dick sprung up in the air.
What. The. Fuck?
You were frozen in astonishment and it was worse when you saw his hand start to slowly move up and down his shaft. He was moaning softly from the little you could hear through the open window and before you knew it, he was thrusting into his hand. He seemed so desperate trying to catch his high that you clenched your thighs as you felt yourself get wet.
"Mm, fuck, Y/N!"
And he exploded. You saw his cum shoot up into the air before it landed somewhere, you didn't know the exact place but, as soon as it happened, you closed your curtains and went to your shower.
Bokuto heard the noise but when he looked back, nothing was out of the ordinary. Except... his window. Wide open. "Shit."
When you were done with your (cold) shower, you saw a text from Bokuto that read:
Bokuto Koutarou: Hey, did you hear anything weird today?
You: what do you mean?
Bokuto Koutarou: like... from my house.
You contemplated your answer before responding.
You: nope.
He left the message on read and let out a huge sigh of relief. Thank God you didn't hear him or else he would've buried himself alive.
Both of you went to sleep feeling weird that night; none of you knew of the rest to come.
On Sunday, you were home alone and suddenly remembered that your mom asked you to fetch your container from the Bokutos before she left on a business trip. "Oh shit!"
You went over immediately, without thinking of what you were wearing and knocked. Luckily, Mrs Bokuto answered the door but she looked as if she was leaving. "Hi Mrs Bokuto. May I please fetch my mom's container?"
"Oh, of course, darling. Me and my husband are going away on holiday for the week and we have to leave for the airport now so help yourself, please? It's on the counter. The kitchen is to the right."
With that, she exited her house and her husband followed with two suitcases on either of his hands. He smiled in acknowledgement and without any more time to waste, their white Lexus sped off.
Like she said, you helped yourself in and went to the said kitchen. You were glad it was easy to spot the container because it really was on the counter. But what you didn't particularly enjoy was freezing when you heard a familiar voice speaking to you.
"Hey, hey, hey, pretty lady. Any reason why you're in my house?"
You turned and saw Bokuto Koutarou leaning against the wall with his arms crossed. Thankfully he was dressed today. "Bokuto. Hi. I'm here to fetch my mom's container."
"Oh. And here I thought you were here to visit me."
You smiled sheepishly and started moving forward, container in hand. As you were about to exit the room, he moved in front of you, arms still crossed.
"Um..." you stepped to the side but he followed you. "Can I get passed?"
"No."
"Wh-"
"You can't get passed. I'm tired of playing your games, pretty lady."
"Bokuto-"
"Koutarou. Call me by my name."
For some reason, his hostile behaviour was making you... horny? The way he crossed his arms so his jacket stuck to his muscles like a second skin; the way his jaw was locked as he looked down on you with his golden eyes. The way he towered over you with his legs apart, his stance mimicking that of a predator about to catch its prey.
"Go on. Say it."
You hesitated and stammered. Instead of you usual strong voice, his name came out as a defeated whisper, "Koutarou..."
He took the container in your hands and threw it into the counter so that it banged against the wall between the cupboards and the former. You flinched at the loud sound, but impressed with how good his aim was. He took steps forward which made you step back in turn. This continued until your back hit the island in the middle of the kitchen and you had nowhere else to go. "You know what I'm talking about right?"
It sounded more like a statement than a question. "No..." You had a feeling that:
"I know, y/n. I know you saw."
"Saw what?" You didn't know why you were still acting clueless because it didn't seem to be working. But what made you finally succumb to his interrogation was when he forced his knee between your thighs and pressed his body against yours.
It was hot. Or was it you? Maybe him? You couldn't think straight with his cologne engulfing you. "Mmm... just like you to get sll flustered. You know how cute you look when that happens? Now I'm going to give you one more chance to admit to your actions."
"I... I did see." You sighed.
"Mhm. Tell me what you saw, pretty lady."
You closed your eyes and went limp, "I saw you cum. When you said my name."
He grabbed your thighs and lifted you so you could sit on the counter of the island, situating himself between your legs. "And did you enjoy that, princess?"
"I don't know."
He squeezed your waist.
"I think you're lying." He moved his head so that his lips were by your ear. "You know what I hate? It's how you don't know how sexy you are to me. Look at you." He was speaking so lowly and slowly that you were hooked on his every word– it was making your pussy quiver. "You think you can come into my house wearing that thin fucking sundress?"
Suddenly, his other hand moved under your dress, caressing your thigh and stopped at the apex where he rubbed his thumb back and forth on the soft skin.
"You don't even have any panties on." You could feel his smirk against your ear. "It's like you knew you were going to see me."
He pulled back and you could breathe again. He walked away, his large back moving further and further away from you as he stopped his antics. "Bokut- Koutarou, wait!"
He stopped and craned his head. He had such a beautiful side profile.
"I did see. And... I liked it. I liked it a lot. In fact, I've fantasized about you so many times since we met and I can't take it anymore."
"So what am I supposed to do about that, sweetheart?"
"Bokuto Koutarou... please fuck me."
It sounded like a plea for help and honestly, it was all he needed to unleash himself. The next few moments were a blur for you because you went from being on the island to being in Koutarou's bed, watching him strip down to nothing without shame.
"Koutarou." You breathed when you saw his dick – it looked even bigger than before. Was that going to fit inside you?
"I'll make it fit, princess." He grinned and beckoned you over to him at the edge of the bed.
You crawled on all fours, feeling your dress ride up over your ass and it was met with cold air. So now you were face to cock with Bokuto Koutarou and it looked like you were about to know the true meaning of choking.
"You're staring at it like you want it in your mouth." He caressed your cheek and let his thumb run along your bottom lip, pulling it down before releasing it. His strong hand grabbed a hold of his hard shaft and you felt a sudden slap against your face. "Is that what you want, princess?"
He slapped you with his dick. Due to the size of it, it was a bit painful but instead of feeling offended, you felt your wetness drip down your thighs. It was still in his hand, but this time, when he moved it, he placed the tip against your lips.
"Hm? You want this cock down your throat?"
You were looking up at him with your pretty brown eyes that looked like they were tearing up and it turned him on to no end.
He leaned over and to your surprise, swiped his hand across your slit from behind, collecting a sticky puddle of your wetness in his hand and placing it on his dick. Your eyes widened as he coated his shaft with it while your lips were still on his tip. "I'm gonna need you to be a good girl for me and take my cock well, okay?"
You nodded without hesitation and finally, you opened your mouth. In went his dick and you gagged immediately at the shear size as it touched the back of your throat. It was already slippery due to the coat of your juices but one thing was prominent.
"Can you taste yourself on my cock, baby? Hm? Do you like it? The way you're slobbered all over my dick?"
You couldn't do anything except blow him. Your cheeks hollowed out as you took him in and out, and in and out. Eventually he had his head thrown back and he was moaning out every other word like "baby", "fuck", and "you're killing me, princess".
It was another 5 minutes before he had enough and he pushed you onto your back, spread your legs as wide as they could and dived into your cunt. "Fuck, Bokuto!"
He slapped your thigh hardly which led you to yelp, making you wonder what you did to deserve it. "I told you to call me by my name."
You understood him perfectly. But the way his tongue moved against your clit didn't warrant any say of his name, or any word, even. All you sounded like was "Mmm" and "yes" and "please"; it was music to his ears. He coupled his tongue movements with two fingers inside you. You were tight around them so that he could barely separate them but the way he curled them towards himself hit a spot you didn't know you had. "Ohhhh my God, Koutarou."
"That's right, say my name, princess." He growled against your clit. He started getting more aggressive as time went on and eventually, he started hitting you on your abdomen, your thighs, and even your clit. Your nipples were straining against your dress as you arched your back, feeling a particular knot get tighter and tighter.
"Koutarou, I'm going to-"
"Do it, baby. Cum on my face."
He sucked and fucked until you did as he said, hips locking as lapped his tongue along your slit while you rode out your orgasm. Your legs were trembling by the end of it but he didn't feel like giving you a break.
"I'm going to fuck you so good, princess." He said as he climbed over you, kissing you deeply and letting you taste yourself on his lips. His tongue entered excitedly and he moaned into your mouth. Your dress was long gone now seeing as he ripped it straight down the middle.
Your chests were pressed together so your boobs were against his pecs and it felt so good to you that you let out a small mewl. While he planted kisses and bites down your neck, you caught your breath and looked up to the ceiling to see... a mirror. There was a mirror on the ceiling and that meant you could see everything that was happening.
Your worn out face. Koutarou's back muscles rippling as he paid attention to your chest and neck; his ass that you could imagine gripping onto as he thrusted hard into you.
He stopped what he was doing and looked into your eyes, "Are you ready?"
"For what?- Ohhhhh." You looked at your own face through the mirror above as he slowly pushed himself in. The stretch of your cunt felt so good that it hurt and you couldn't help but cry. "Fuck, Koutarou."
"Say it again." He started thrusting, "Say my name again."
"Koutarouuuu." You droned out.
His hips moved relentlessly. It seemed that he was waiting for this for a long time and now you understood why. It felt so good. "I fit so perfectly inside you, princess."
As his dick slipped in again, he hit the spot from earlier except, it felt so much more intense. "Yes, Koutarou, do it again."
And so he did. He was moaning along with you, whispering dirty words into your ear and the deeper he went inside you, the closer you were to cumming. You pushed his shoulders up so that you could see his face and as soon as you made eye contact, he smiled. It was so devilish and hedonistic and it fit him perfectly.
He bit his lip as he looked down to see yourselves colliding. In, out. In, out. That's what his dick was doing. In and out of your squelching pussy and so easily, that he could've sworn that your hole was made for him. "Koutarou, I'm going to cum again."
"That's a good girl. Do it for me, princess. Cum on my cock."
He went back to thrusting deeply and languidly and as you watched his big form move above you, you went over the edge creamed with him inside you. "Oh yes, oh yes, Koutarou, I love it."
"You love it?" He asked as he pumped through your climax.
"Yes, baby, I do. Give it to me, more, please, Koutarou."
He groaned, "I love it when you say my name. Can I cum inside, princess?"
"You ca- do whatever you want, Ko- koutarou." You belted out as more orgasms overtook you.
"Say it again."
"KOUTAROU, MY GOD!!!"
That was what it took for him to cum inside you. He stayed in there for a while, sweat dripping from his chin onto your face. Your bodies were sticky and sweaty from his sex and it both of you were worn out.
"Koutarou..." you started but were interrupted by him pulling out and roughly turning you onto your stomach.
He pulled your hips up so you were face down, ass up and licked his lips when he saw your combined cum squeezing out of your cunt. "Round Two, pretty lady."
I guess, you were the only one worn out?

Paris in the rain - Edmund Pevensie x reader (Oneshot)
Sksksksksjjjsk.. had this idea for a story the second I started listening to Paris in the rain by Lauv. So here you go! I hope you all enjoy it!!
Warnings - none
Song :- Paris in the Rain
Peaceful.
Sitting up on a hill which gave a beautiful view of narnia. Down below you could see the battle field. Where it all had happened. Where I, Caspian, the Kings and Queens of Old and many Narnians had fought to save their home, to save their people, and won victoriously.
The sky highlighted with an orange hue, with clouds swirled in various directions. Like that of a painting.
A light breeze sweeping past me; I let out a sigh, closing my eyes. Yes. Peaceful indeed. The silence almost making me want to drift off into dreamland.
But soon that silence was broken with a clear of throat. Eyes shooting open I looked around me to find the source of the sound only to lock eyes with those warm chocolate like ones.
Edmund.
"Your majesty," I stand up bowing down to him.
He chuckled. Placing a hand on my shoulder; he slowly pushed me down back onto the grass, making himself comfortable next to me.
Scrunching his nose and furrowing his eyebrows, he scoffed, "I thought I told you not to call me that.."
Giggling to myself I rolled my eyes playfully, looking back at the view laying infront of us.
"It's beautiful isn't it?"
"Yeah.." he sighed.
Shifting my gaze towards him I couldn't help but smile to myself. Breathtaking. Eyes closed, lashes fluttering against his skin ever so lightly. Brown locks gently dancing around his head with the breeze. Freckles on display almost like art. And his plush pink lips slightly parted.
Yes. Breathtaking.
Years of friendship, doing absolutely everything together. In and out of the Pevensie's house and them the same with mine. In time I had managed to catch feelings for the boy. Lucy being the first to notice. She was more excited than I was, which was absolutely adorable to watch. Susan and Peter catching up on it a little later, after they caught enough of me stealing glances at him constantly. And soon enough, that developed to something more. The feelings grew stronger.
But fear washed over me. The friendship we had was so precious to me and so to him as he and his siblings say. So thinking of the million possibilities, I didn't want to ruin what we had right now. So I kept my feelings to myself.
Turning his head towards me he smiled softly. Oh that smile. That damned smile.
"Y/N?"
"Hmm?"
He tilted his head a little raising an eyebrow, "you've been staring at me quite a while now.. I'm beginning to think you like what you see." He wiggled his eyebrows now.
Heat rising upto my cheeks, I nudged him gently while rolling my eyes, trying to hide the blush on my face. But with the way he was boring his eyes into me I couldn't really help it. Clearing my throat I tried to make up a sentence.
"Ooh look! You're blushing!" he pinched my cheek. "You really do fancy me huh Y/N?"
Swatting his hand away I replayed that sentence in my head. Fancy him? Part of me wanted to think he was flirting with me the second he sent a playful wink my way. But the other part of me just knew it was normal in our friendship for him to be a little bit of a brat sometimes.
Oh but that didn't stop me from being a blushing mess around him of course.
"I-I-" looking away from him, I stared at the setting sun in awe, "look! The sun's setting!"
He let out a chuckle. Looking at him from the corner of my eye, I could see his gaze back on the setting sun.
Smiling to myself I fumbled with my hands.
"I see why you like coming up here.." Edmund broke the silence.
Humming I didn't break my gaze from the view in front of me. "I feel at ease here.. feels like a moment away from all the worries of the world. Just peaceful." Letting out a sigh in content I continued, "It's like I finally feel-"
"Free.." he said along with me.
Looking at eachother without a word, I smiled at him softly.
"I wonder if the skies are like this in Paris," the sky now turning into a pinkish colour. I laughed to myself. Edmund knew very well how much I love to go to Paris.
"Well, when we go back home, I'll take you there," he flashed me a grin.
Raising my eyebrow at him I laughed, "you? Take me to Paris?"
Smirking he nodded his head, "yes me!" My heart fluttered at the thought itself.
Honestly speaking, with Edmund here, everything just feels right. I really had nothing to fear. He's helped me uncountable times. Picked me up whenever I fell, and always pushed me to do my best.
"Edmund?"
"Hmm?" his eyes still fixated in front of him.
"Thank you.."
"For what?" he tilted his head a little, this time eyes focusing on me.
"For believing in me.. being there for me."
He hummed in response. "What friends are for.."
My smile dropped at that. Friends. What was I even thinking? That's what it always was. What it always will be.
Like I said, that flirtatious nature was just something normal when it came to being friends with Ed. It's too good to be true anyways. Maybe we're really better off friends.
I was so caught up thinking about the term he considered us, that I hadn't noticed the pair of eyes almost literally, burning holes into the side of my head. The change in my expression not going unnoticed by him.
He was always observant. Knew exactly what was going on around him.
Feeling an odd warmth upon my hands I looked at them. Inhaling a sharp breath my eyes shifted back towards the owner.
The way he looked at me, felt like he was staring right into my soul. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing Ed.. there's nothing wrong." I faked a smile at him.
Now intertwining his larger hands with mine he shifted so he was sitting right in front of me. Obviously not buying my answer.
"You're a terrible liar you know? Years of knowing eachother and you really think I can't tell when something is wrong?" he laughed.
Trying not to look into his eyes I gulped. Hooking a finger under my chin he turned me to face him.
"Now tell me what's wrong silly," he smiled at me softly. "Tell me love."
I blushed at the nickname. He had called me this before but this time it hit me harder. He really isn't making this any easier for me. Mindlessly I spat out what was at the tip of my tongue, "am I your friend?"
Oh Aslan.
I mentally facepalmed. Way to go Y/N.. out of all the things you could've said, this? Really?
He laughed. "What world have you been living in all this time to not know?"
I looked away in embarrassment. "Of course you're my friend silly. Actually, more like family at this point."
Well that was enough to show that he only considers me as a sister. I hope my inner self has that clear enough now. I felt like punching myself for even giving him the opportunity to rub that at my face.
I chuckled bitterly and nodded my head in response, "yeah.." He shrugged shifting once again to make himself comfortable. Hands still in his he traced circles on mine with his thumb.
That's it. I really need to tell him. With a sudden wave of confidence I looked at him, "you really don't see it do you?"
"What do you mean?"
I let out a laugh of frustration. Taking in a breath I began, "I've always been thankful for you and your siblings. I absolutely love and adore the bond that we have. But I umm began to feel something different. Feelings come and go they do, but with you it's different. Anywhere with you feels right. When I'm with you, I feel so happy, I feel like I can finally be myself, I feel safe.. I really hope this won't ruin our friendship but I feel like you have a right to know.. I-I.."
He sat there in silence, listening with eyebrows slightly furrowed. Hoping he wouldn't hate me after this I continued.
"I-I-I like you.." at this he widened his eyes a little and looked away, scratching the nape of his neck.
Panicked I looked away, "listen I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that. Please, please just forget it, I hope you don't hate me. I'm so soo sorry."
No response.
Sighing I stood up trying my best to hold back my tears, "I-I have to go.."
"Y/N, wait.."
Stopping in my tracks I mustered up all my courage to face him. Turning around my gaze locked with his. The look on his face was absolutely unreadable.
"Edmund I-"
He shook his head. Coming closer to me he placed a hand on my cheek. It took all the strength I had in me not to squeal. He began to lean in. What is he doing?! My body refusing to make a move, I watched as his eyes momentarily flicked from my eyes to my lips.
Finally closing the space between us he brushed his lips against mine. Just for a brief second. But even when he pulled away, the feeling of his lips still lingered.
I couldn't believe it.
Edmund Pevensie. The Edmund Pevensie kissed me.
He pulled away smiling shyly, "I hope that answers everything?"
I looked at him in confusion. What does this actually mean? "I.. Ed I don't get i-"
Placing his lips on mine once again he shut me up. But this time he didn't pull away. His hand still on my cheek and the other now snaking around my waist; he pulled me flush against him. Slowly moving my lips against his, he smiled into the kiss. Tilting his head, he deepened the kiss. The breeze brushing past us, time seemed like it was slowing down around us.
As soon as he pulled away in order for us to catch our breaths, I covered my face in embarrassment, wanting to run away. But my body said otherwise and decided to stay.
He laughed removing my hands off my face and holding them in his, "you don't know how long I've been waiting to do that, how long I've waited to hear you say those words."
"So.. it's umm.. it's mutual?"
He nodded his head.
"B-but.."
"I'm sorry," he cut me off. "For not saying anything before. I was just so shocked when I heard all that. I just couldn't believe it. Truth is, I've liked you for a long while now."
Widening my eyes my mouth fell open, "you-you what?!" At this point I swear my ears were just playing tricks on me.
As if reading my thoughts he nodded his head, "isn't it obvious? I like you too. I really wanted to confess before, but I was just too afraid. Afraid that I'd scare you off if you didn't feel the same.. I tried to brush it off several times for the sake of our friendship. But well, that.. didn't work. So yes. Conclusion is, I like you too. And since the feelings are mutual I guess it's safe to say, I always have and I always will."
All of this. It was like a dream come true.
"Love is a strong word they say. But with you, love it is."
As if on cue, we both cringed visibly. Looking at eachother without a word, we burst into a fit of giggles.
"When did you get so cringy Ed?" I managed between laughs.
"Cringy much, I thought so.." he laughed.
"But," he paused. "But its true. How I feel."
I smiled at him softly nodding my head, "guess I could say, you fancy me too?"
He laughed heartily. "Yes, you can. So miss Y/N.. now that we both fancy eachother, to make this official, may I- may I court you?"
Smiling widely I nodded my head once again, "yes. Yes you may."
He pulled me into his arms. Snaking my arms around his torso I breathed in his scent. He rested his head upon mine, "my best friend, is my girlfriend. I like the sound of that."
"Yeah, I like it too," I giggled.
Placing my head on his shoulder, he slowly began to sway our bodies together. Under the night sky. Together. It felt just amazing.
"I love you Y/N," he whispered.
"I love you too Ed," I sighed contently. Anywhere with Edmund, feels like Paris in the rain.
Okay wow... I literally wrote half of this while listening to Paris in the rain. It really is a lovely song.
I hope you all enjoyed this! ❤️ I'm sorry if there were any mistakes. Please do send in requests. Love you all and stay safe <3

“How did he manage to escape?” You asked.
“We suspect that he left through the vents, and managed to blend in with the night.” Jun replied.
You let out a deep breath.
“By the way… where's Wonwoo?” you asked. Jun, with a grin, leaned toward your ear.
“He's venting out his anger on Detective Kwon.” Jun whispered. You tilted your head, not understanding.
Suddenly, Jun's phone began to ring. He lifted his hand up as if saying “Just a moment” and then left. You sat alone on the hospital bed for a bit before leaving without notice, as quiet as a spy.
Jun took his phone out of his jacket. It was a number he recognized. With a smile, he answered.
“Yeah? … I'll text you the address … of course. You can trust me.”
Your eyes widened, hiding behind the wall that seperated you and Jun. After hearing silence, you ran. You ran for the exit so that Jun wouldn't notice that you had just eavesdropped on him and someone's conversation.
You reached the outside of the hospital, finally feeling air up against your face. The weather was windy, but had a lot of sun too. You took out your phone to call Wonwoo but he didn't pick up.
While on the way back to the station, you couldn't help but wonder what Jun could've been talking about. The most recent case your team worked on together was already solved and you were yet to be given a new case.
You tilted your head, letting out a sigh. ‘What in the world was he talking about…? Who was he talking to?’
An uneasy feeling couldn't help but rise inside you.
Tumblr media
- [one week later]
“Hey, you've gotten pretty good!?” Detective Kwon commented, panting as he drank water. They had just finished practicing.
Wonwoo had a towel around the back of his neck and shoulders as he drank water as well. Detective Kwon gave a naughty smile upon noticing and reading Wonwoo's expression.
“Come on, it was just a few scratches and slits from glass, she's not going to die.” Detective Kwon said, patting Wonwoo on the shoulder. Detective Kwon was wearing a bandana that absorbed his sweat.
Wonwoo avoided eye contact with Detective Kwon.
“I know you're worried for Y/N. It's written all over your face.” Wonwoo blushed slightly at Detective Kwon's continuous comments, but he didn't say a word because Detective Kwon was correct about everything. “Look, Y/N has even gotten shot before. Once in the abdomen and another time in the arm.”
Wonwoo turned to face Detective Kwon. Detective Kwon just nodded and then stood up.
“See you at the station.”
Wonwoo nodded.

Tumblr media
You stared at the television screen.
“The gang leader Yoon, had escaped from prison early this morning. According to reports, he had escaped after he found an underground passage that was dug by one of his former cellmates. He continued to dig the passageway and finally escaped after two years out of his 7 year sentence-”
You sighed, grabbing your hair, frustrated. The other team members were all still focused on the TV. You just couldn't believe it.
“Yesterday, it was Mingyu. Now the gang leader has escaped? How can they just... how can they not know about that passageway?” You asked in frustration, well aware that more danger for Wonwoo would come soon. More danger for your entire team.
“What's that guy's name?” You asked, standing up, hands on your hips.
“Yoon Jeonghan.” Wonwoo replied in a low voice. His head and eyes completely focused on the screen. You could see him clench his fists from the corner of your eye.
“By the way, where's Detective Kwon?” Jun asked.
You looked around after Jun asked that question. He wasn't in the station. You scanned every face, none of them matches Detective Kwon. The uneasy feeling inside your chest continued to grow.
“I have to leave early today.” Jun said, grabbing his jacket that was on his chair and heading towards the entrance of the station.
“Where are you headed?” You followed Jun out the door as Wonwoo watched. He didn't have a good feeling either.
-
Tumblr media
You two walked toward Jun's car.
“I'm going to grab some lunch and then visit my friend. He passed away recently.” Jun replied with a smile on his face. You had your hands behind your back.
“Ahh, I see. Which friend?” You asked.
“One of my friends from the police academy.” Junhui replied. You just nodded. Jun opened his car door. “Actually, do you want to come with me? I'll buy lunch for you.”
Your eyes lit up. “Sure thing.”
You got into the passenger's seat. “Where are we headed?”
Jun locked the doors of the car. “The nearest drive through.”
The ride was unpleasantly quiet. You thought of bringing up the conversation you ‘overheard’ but decided against it. Jun was suddenly serious, unlike his normal self that was playful.
“You must be really sad.” You said quietly.
Jun chuckled as you two parked in the parking lot instead of going to the drive-thru. On his car, you could see the destination in his GPS.
“Forgive me, Senior.” You tilted your head. Jun brought a cloth out of his pocket and unlocked his seatbelt. He pinned you onto your seat and forcefully placed the cloth on your face. A familiar scent, like the one Mingyu used.
You could feel your body weakening from that scent but still, with disbelief, you broke your hands free by headbutting Jun. You quickly unlocked the door and seat belt, opening the door only to have Jun pull you back. You kicked him in the stomach hastily with all of your energy and fell out of the car, trying to shout but the scent had already taken effect.
“GET OUT OF THE CAR!” You heard that same low-toned shout. Jun hurriedly backed out.
A few shots were fired but from what you could see, all of them missed the car. There were also too many cars on the road for him to continue shooting.
Wonwoo ran to you and held you into his muscular arms.
“Y/N, can you hear me?” Wonwoo tapped your face gently, his hand on your back. He continued to ask questions, but by that time, your vision had already turned black.

The moment Soonyoung awoke, he felt dizzy. He could still feel the blood trickling from the sides of his head.
“Hey, you're awake?” the voice was gentle. Soonyoung fluttered his eyelids, adjusting to the light. The pain in the back of his began to sting. The moment he left practice, he walked home only to be hit by batons from two guys.
In front of him was a handsome man, sitting in a chair as if he dominated the world.
“Detective Kwon Soonyoung, huh?” Soonyoung recognized the man as Yoon Jeonghan. The leader of the gang that Wonwoo used to be in. “Mind if I call you Soonyoung? I'm older than you anyway.”
Soonyoung clenched his teeth, bearing the pain in his head. His world was still dizzy.
Suddenly, a different came into frame. He was tall and based off his body size and shape, Soonyoung could tell that it was Kim Mingyu, the underboss.
“So, did he get that... what was their name?”
“Y/N, sir.” Mingyu replied. “I'll give him a call.”
Soonyoung did not recognize the place at all. It was dark and a bit murky.
“Put it on speaker for me.” Jeonghan said, still staring at Soonyoung. “I can't wait to get that betrayer back. I can't wait to see us victorious.”
“Moon Junhui, where are you?” Mingyu asked, expecting a reaction from Soonyoung, who was stuck to a pole similar like you were. He was obviously waiting for a reaction.
Soonyoung lifted his head to face Mingyu and Jeonghan, both had grins on their face. Grins of excitement. Soonyoung didn't want to believe it. He couldn't believe it.
“I couldn't do it. Y/N ran away before passing out and Wonwoo followed us and almost shot my car so I left.” Soonyoung's eyes widened because that voice was indeed, the trusted and intelligent, Moon Junhui's voice.
Jeonghan gave a satisfied smile seeing Soonyoung's face that was full of disbelief and shock.
“Fine, come back here.” Mingyu replied. “It's time for you to meet our boss.”
Jun replied with an okay. Just before Mingyu was about to hang up, he asked, “Do you have Detective Kwon?”
Jeonghan chuckled. “Of course, he's right here.”
Jun laughed from the phone. Soonyoung couldn't tell what was happening. He didn't want to believe it. It must've been a dream.
“It's not a dream,” Junhui said as if reading his chief's mind. “And we'll be victorious.”
“What exactly are you trying to win?” Soonyoung asked in a firm voice.
Jun did not reply. Jeonghan cut in, holding a gun his hands. He blew at the tip as Mingyu ended the call.
“It's time for you to experience a betrayal.”

Chapter 1 ⇢ ❝The World Left In Ruin.❞
It was a disaster. Everything that could've gone wrong.. it went wrong. They thought that this would be an easy battle. They thought they would emerge victorious. The preparations, the plans. It all meant nothing now.
There were too many dead bodies to count. Some were scattered individually, showing a soldier who danced alone, on their own paths. Others were in groups, clusters, showing soldiers who were afraid of this beast. Deeply afraid. Rightly so, she thought as she gazed over them. A battle had been lost. Not just a battle, the war had been lost.
She wiped the dirt off of her face as she collapsed to her knees. This was the temple, the place where she watched over the humans. Those old walls that had cracks etched in from years gone by, the overgrown plants that were evergreen. Beautiful. Sitting here now, with these eight bodies, the bodies of the heroes, she finally realised something. Destiny realised that it wasn't over yet. This world and that which remains within it was not yet doomed. Her fingers clenched around the cloth cloak that draped over her small body. Yes, she was weak and yes, using the last of her power would prevent her returning to Earth but it was the only way. Her eyes met the cold, dead ones of Kim Hongjoong and she heaved a long, defeated sigh.
Her only hope. Their only hope.
[three years later]
Soft brown eyes slowly flutter open, a sense of dreariness and haziness flooding over his body. Everything ached. It felt like hell. His limbs hurt, his head hurt. It took him a while to really see over his surroundings. Where... Where was he? The place was huge, ancient and yet it had a sense of charm that he couldn't quite put his finger on. He wipes his eyes with the palms of his little hands and he tries to stand up. He couldn't remember a thing. Why he was here, what happened before this point, he couldn't even remember his name.
Clumsily, he made his way over to a little pool of water that sat in one of the four corners of the room. He gazed down into the liquid and saw a faded reflection of a pretty boy staring back at him. Blue, fluffy hair, clear skin and beautiful brown eyes. His hands made contact with the cold stone that sealed the water off from the rest of the temple. A voice called something from the distance. Calling out the name of someone.. "Hongjoong"
Reluctantly, he followed that voice, down one of the corridors that the temple had. He observed the walls, every little crack and every little dent. That voice grew louder "Hongjoong, Kim Hongjoong," it sang, as though the name were a sweet melody. "who is that?" he thought "who is this person? Who is Kim Hongjoong?"
The corridor came to an end abruptly. His eyes widened at the sight before him. There were pillars towering over him and gaps between each of them. The fresh smell of air and salt wafted through as he finally got a look at the outside. It was beautiful, but.... it was also nothing but water. Water that stretched as far as the eye could see. No matter which way he looked at the openings,, no land was in sight.
Then, a piercing light came from the centre of the room, causing the boy to shield his eyes away hastily. A mosaic that was stretched across the floor in the centre also lit up. "Kim Hongjoong," the same voice chimed. "Kim Hongjoong, you must hear my call," it repeated.
"Kim... Hongjoong?" The boy replied croakily "I don't know anybody by that name," he said. The voice paused "who are you?" it asked. The boy's brows furrowed and he spoke unsurely "I have no clue,, I just woke up here, I don't remember anything,"
That was the big question, who was he? The light in the room seemed to only glow brighter at his response. "fallen hero,,," it insisted "you are our only hope... the fate of the world rests in your hands,"
Stubbornly, the boy shook his head "m-me? A fallen hero?? But I have no recollection of my past, how can that be?" he asked In desperation. His white button down flowed in the slow breeze and his tongue ran smoothly across his cold lips. The aching that overcame his body had subsided, but only by a short amount.
His eyes drooped closed, his head hurting still yet the pain blossoming through it seemed to slowly but surely fade with every inhale and exhale. His arms extended from each side outwards, taking in the wind and the sun from the outside. Embracing it. Nothing hurt anymore. He was truly alive. It was a feeling like no other. To feel every part of his body again. To feel like himself again. But, who was he? The person standing here, inhaling the vast ocean's salty scent was not the hero the voice called out for. So why did he follow? Questions without answers. Questions that needed answers.
He felt his eyes flicker open again, and the light was gone. Like it was never there. In its place, however, fluttered a golden butterfly. A small creature that held innocence and beauty within its being. The little butterfly perched upon the boy's finger when he reached out to touch it. Its perfect glistening glow was captivating. Warm brown eyes inspect the little insect carefully as it's pretty wings twitched. "what's a small thing like you doing in a place like this?" The boy asked in a soft tone, obviously not expecting an answer.
Wait.. Was it just him or was the butterfly twinkling more than a butterfly should..? Then, before his very eyes, the butterfly seemed to fade away; almost as if it was melting. Now nothing but sparkling dust remained on his fingers. As he rose his hand up to inspect the glittering powder, his hand was set ablaze. With a small gasp, he shook his hand vigorously but the flames merely danced around his fingertips, burning with passion.
Tumblr media
This new power that surged through his body, he couldn't quite understand what it was. He had spent a while experimenting with it, creating flames, creating plant life, creating light and, perhaps less excitingly and more concerningly, destroying certain things that he touched. It seemed that he had the power of creation and destruction at his fingertips, yet he couldn't quite use it at his will. That was evident by the amount of flowers blooming around him and the amount of plants hugging at his feet. How curious.
The sun's bright light soon fell as the boy experimented continuously with this strange oddity now available to him. It was entertaining, sure, but he felt lonely. The moon's silver luminescence shined down on him as he sat between one of the gaps of the sturdy pillars in the room that was open to the ocean. It was too dark to see a thing elsewhere so it left the small boy to gaze up at the stars.
He still had no idea who he was or how he got here. "Kim Hongjoong" was the only person he knew of but,, he wasn't certain if he was Kim Hongjoong for sure. For now then... Until he gets a solid answer, he'll call himself "Hong"
Hong kicked his legs out a little bit and shivered lightly. His thin clothes weren't really shielding him from the night's cool air. He glamced at his left hand and pressed his lips together, until a flame shortly blazed over his palm. The warmth of the flame soothed him, as his eyelids grew heavy, calling for him to enter a slumber.
Slowly, Hong lowered himself until he was flat on his back, his hands up in the air so he could watch the red and orange embers flare at his fingers. Something then came to mind, what was he to do in this place? Eventually, he'd starve to death, correct? So... He had to figure out how to escape, there must be land somewhere else. For that moment, though, he let himself fall into a slumber. He let those thoughts and those worries drift away for now.
Tumblr media
Startled, Hong awoke with a start. Something had hit his face. And it was more prominent then a bug or a drop of rain. He sat up and stretched his arms out above him and looked around. To his left, a small scroll of paper sat. That must've been what hit him.
His small hands twitched as he reached for the crisp piece of paper. It was rolled up precisely and wrapped in a red ribbon. Maybe,, just maybe, this could explain to him what was going on. He hastily unravelled the paper and scanned it. His look of hope quickly faded into something that resembled confusion. Words were etched into the paper elegantly, though most of it appeared in a language Hong couldn't quite recognise. Only one part stood out to him. The name. "Park Seonghwa," he whispered. His index finger traced the name in the italic handwriting and sighed. Two names, without meaning.
He stared at the writing for a while, trying to decipher what it was saying. But he could never get past the first sentence, which was clearly written in Korean. "We were written in the stars, by Destiny herself,"
His mind seemed restless, but the sun had not even come up yet. He was using the small light source that the moon gave off. His eyes lifted to stare at the many stars. "written in the stars... what does that mean?" he asked himself solemnly. A small crackle of fire came to his attention and he looked down again only to realise that he was burning the aged paper. "No!-" he squeaked in desperation but before he could do anything, the paper had burnt to a crisp.
Not long after though a figure appeared beside him. A gasp left his lips in shock and he moved himself back, away from the figure that was laying unconscious on the floor. Did,, did he do that? Surely not, that couldn't be possible. He looked over the figure for a moment, his eyes twinkling with curiosity. "Park... Seonghwa?" he queried quietly.
When the figure's eyes opened abruptly to reveal a pretty blue, Hong gasped again. He had the urge to reach out and touch the person's face, but restrained himself from doing so. "who.. are you?" The figure, that upon closer inspection seemed to resemble a man also, asked with a sense of weariness in his voice.
"I.. don't really know,"

Three hours.
Three goddamn hours of his life he's never getting back that were completely wasted on making this pros and cons list.
There were so many more interesting things he could've done in those three hours. He could've been doing paperwork, or watching paint dry or spending time with his children. Or all three at the same time. But no, he had to help her make the most extensive list he's ever known to exist.
This is some form of karma for hooking up with her.
"This is my personal hell," the brunette tells her. "It's exactly like a nightmare I once had."
"Sounds like an oddly specific nightmare."
"Just let me know when you're done making this list. I have to go do the far more interesting task of watching paint dry. First, I must find where the paint is."
"Not so fast! This list is complete and now it's time to weigh the options here," Carly says, stopping him from moving.
He glances at the list and sighs, "Certain death is not an actual thing that belongs on this list. The same goes for Earth blowing up and someone randomly stalking us. These are just your nightmares, and that's a whole other list."
Pouting, she crosses them off the list. "Happy now?"
"I'd be happier if you didn't waste three hours of my life making this list."
"Oh stop, you know this is the most logical solution," she waves a hand as though she's truly carefree at this moment in time. "Besides, this is an inclusive list of pretty much every reason you could think of."
"Yes, Elizabeth needed to be on this list," Jason says, rolling his eyes at her. "I'm beginning to think you just want to rub this in her face when she's married to and very much in love with Franco Baldwin, despite my better judgement and many discussions with her on that subject."
"Fine, I'll cross her off the list. But getting little Lizzie mad isn't exactly a con," she agrees, sighing.
"And the fact you hate her because we're friends has nothing to do with this," he says, raising an eyebrow. "Need I remind you of your reaction when you found out I had fathered Jake?"
"You hid that from me! And I hate her, but that part doesn't matter as much," the blonde playfully glares at him.
"Mhm," he agrees, rolling his eyes again. The things he does for this woman. "So, are there more pros or cons on this incredibly long list? Please, don't read them all out loud or I think we'll be here until our deaths."
"Roughly equal, but I don't know how you want to weigh each thing. For example, I assume your kids go above the possibility the world could end because of this."
"Cross that one off the list too. The world hasn't ended yet and we've done much more questionable things. Please, let's only count the real reasons that matter, such as," he pauses, looking at the list quickly, "Sonny."
"He's dead, we both know that."
"We also both know you're in love with him."
"Hard to be in love with a dead dude."
"Sounds like it must really suck. I can't know what you're feeling, of course, but sounds pretty bad."
"What I meant was that I don't entirely agree with that statement you made about me being in love with him," she retorts, rolling her eyes.
"Well, besides you, he's my best friend," he reminds her.
"Yeah, but I'm in first place for best friend," she says, smiling as though she's won a prize when he chuckles and nods. "I'm also not dead, which is a major pro to me being your best friend."
"Yes, livelihood is a good trait to have in a friend," Jason agrees, chuckling to himself.
"Well of course it is! Especially when it's me. Now, let's cross off all things that don't apply. Just look at it and cross off everything you don't agree with being on there." She hands him a pen and looks at the paper as he laughs. "Don't laugh at my genius idea, Jason. It's arguably the best I've had in a long time."
"A genius idea would be how to cure cancer, Carly. This is a Carly plan, god help us both."
"You'll be fine," she says, smiling as he crosses something out. "Hey, that's a very valid point there you're just erasing from it!"
"No, it is not. Your mother has absolutely nothing to do with this."
"My mother loves you!"
"Carly, that does not constitute as something for this list."
"I disagree."
"Too late, I crossed her name out already."
"Give me that pen and I will write it again."
"Carly. Let me cross out invalid points here. You can fight me about their validity later in life."
"Fine," she pouts. "But I don't like this."
"And I don't like that I have this list in front of me."
"Just erase all of my hard work like it's nothing, it's fine. Not like it's the most extensive list with each and every thing we need to consider on it," Carly continues dramatically.
Ten minutes later, half of the list is crossed off much to the anger of Carly. "I put my heart and soul into this list and this is how you repay me, crossing out half of it!"
Chuckling, Jason just says, "You'll be fine. Besides, I think that's the last thing I'll be crossing off."
"Well, now we have to organize each of them in order of how serious they are."
"There's more of a process to this?" Jason groans, already dreading that part of his day. "Can't we just make a decision based off of this list in and of itself so that we don't focus another three hours of our days on this?"
"Fine. What do you think we should do from here, using only this list?"
"I don't know, why don't you have a decision made up in your mind? This is taking a concerning amount of time, especially since it's you," he questions.
"Maybe because I'm thinking of what to say when the kids get back here!"
"You mean the kids that are used to me being in your kitchen with you? Yeah, I'm sure they're going to be really confused and realize we hooked up last night at the sight of us," he agrees sarcastically.
"Alright, you make a good point there. I can't make a decision, though," Carly sighs, agreeing with him in a minor victory for the assassin.
"That was the whole point of this list!"
"I never guaranteed that it would work!"
"Yes, you did. You said it would show us which decision would be the right one," he counters.
"You know what, screw the list," Carly says, ripping it up and throwing it in the trashcan. "We can figure this out without needing a list! We're adults, we can solve our problems on our own without needing any help from that."
"Three hours. I'm never getting those three hours back that you spent on that list, Carly, and for you to just throw it away... You're lucky you're my best friend."
"Shut up and just tell me what you feel."
"At this moment? Like I'm getting a headache and I don't have nearly enough patience for your plan."
"I never called it a plan, you did, and you know that's not what I meant."
"What exactly do you want me to tell you my feelings on, then?"
"I don't know, Jason, what's your feeling about Laura and Cyrus being siblings? I want to know your feelings on what happened last night!"
To be continued because I'm falling asleep rn to Taylor Swift breakup songs
"It's hard being in love with a dead dude." Pick a struggle-

The Awakening Ch 1: Final battle
(Author note: I’m so sorry to everyone for the long delay of The Awakening. @attitudeangels was the one writing this until she had family problem, so she ask me if I can finish for her. Give AttitudeAngels some support and love. Thanks to everyone for the wait and sorry again, hope you enjoy it)
After the Loser Club found out Mike lied about the ritual and now they have to face themselves with pennywise once again. When they his true form and tell them for their blind mistake. Pennywise started chasing them around the cave, not before long the Loser split up in different directions, which confused the giant clown.
Richie POV:
Me and Eddie ran into a cave trying to get away from Pennywise. We kept running down the cave, trying to find a way out, then ran into three doors.
“Shit. You gotta be fucking kidding me”
“Um, all right. “Not scary at all.” All right? Eddie said
“No no no”
“W-wait why?
“They’re flipped, he fucking with us”
“Are you sure”
“Trust me”
“Positive”
“Yes”
“Okay”
We walked towards the very scary door. I turned the door knob and opened it. It was a dark closet, then a voice called out.
“Where’s my shoe?”. My heart started speeding up. I pulled the string to turn on the light bulb. We heard tap dancing, and it started getting closer then giggling. A girl without a torso started skipping towards us. We started to scream then shut the door.
“What the fuck!”
“You told me to trust you!” Eddie said
“He’s not fucking with us, let’s go to “Not scary at all.”
“Okay”
Eddie was scared to see what’s on the other side of the door. He turned the door knob and opened it slowly. “It’s all right. Let’s go” Eddie said. We started to walk forward then we heard a noise then looked down to see a little Pomeranian.
“Oh shit” Richie whisper
The little Pomeranian just staring at us with his tongue out
“No way am I falling for this shit again”
“Oh yeah. That things a fucking monster”
“Richie, make it sit”
“I know yours moves, you little bitch”
Then we heard growling behind
Eddie whisper “Richie, it’s gone man”
“Yeah, wait”
“Okay”
We both turned around to look at the little Pomeranian
“Sit”!
“He did it”!
“Oh that’s cute”
“That’s a good boy”
“That’s actually super cute”
“That’s a good boy”
“Are you a good boy”
“Good boy”
Then out of nowhere the Pomeranian turned into a giant monster. We screamed at the last second, before it was about the launch at us, we closed the door shut.
“Shit” Eddie yelled
“Yo, next time, we just go with regular, “scary.”
“Next time!” I yelled
We speed walked out of that cave and trying to find a way out.
3rd POV:
When bill came out of the water, he swam toward the edge then he pulled himself out. Mike was hiding behind the rock, when he turned around and saw Bill on the fall trying to catch his breath.
“Bill” Mike whisper
He stands up and about to help bill when pennywise pop out of nowhere. “Miss me” pennywise shout
“I know what you are. That’s why I’m not afraid” Mike said
Pennywise wrapped his arm around Mike then pulled out his claws. He lifted him off the ground, then started laughing.
“Well, I know what you are. A madmen”
Pennywise opened his mouth and more Sharp teeth came out, he was about to bite Mike when he got hit with a rock. Mike turned his head to see who saved him.
“Hey, fuckface!”
The giant clown turned his head then threw Mike into the rock wall, after Mike landed he groaned in pain. Richie picked another rock and look at IT
“You wanna play Truth or Dare”?
“Here’s the truth. You’re a sloppy bitch”!
“Yeah, that’s right”!
“Let’s dance! Yippee-ki-yay mot…
When Richie was about to throw the rock, pennywise put Richie under his deadlights. He lifted him off the ground and showed him his worst fears. Eddie ran out of the cave and saw Richie caught in pennywise deadlights.
“Oh shit Richie”
Eddie backup against the wall then he looked at the spear that Beverly gave to him before they went deeper into the sewer
“This… kills monsters. If you believe it does. If you believe it does”
“IF YOU BELIEVE IT DOES…. BEEP BEEP, MOTHERFUCKER!!”
Eddie threw the spear. It landed in pennywise mouth, he let go of Richie then he landed on the ground, but he hasn’t fully if out of the effects
Eddie POV:
“Hey Rich, wake up! Come on, man! Wake up”!
“Don’t do this to me, Rich, I swear don’t-”
“What do I do, what do I do? Fuck! What… this happened to be once and ben…”
“I hope this works”
I looked at Richie then his lips, I placed my hands on the side of his face. I took a deep breath and exhaled. l lean in and kissed Richie. I couldn’t tell if it was working, then I felt a hand on the back of my head and then Richie pulled me a little closer. I didn’t want it to end, but I had to end it.
“Hey there he is! I did it, Rich I think I killed IT! I- think-”
Then out of nowhere Richie pushed me to the side, I heard a loud crash.
“We gotta move, buddy” Richie said quietly
“How did you- you just saved my ass, I could've…”
“Yeah and I gave you the ted talk about it later if you want, but now we gotta kill this fucking clown”
Time skip
After the Losers Club bullied pennywise to death and got his heart. When they place their hands on the heart. When Richie and Eddie’s fingers slightly touch, then they slowly interlocked their fingers and they hold on to each other. Eddie looked at Richie, he felt his face heat up. Then he looked back at the heart and the Losers crushed it.
At the lake
When Bev jumped into the water first then the others jumped in after her. They were so happy to be free from pennywise and finally killing him. When they started cleaning themselves. Richie and Eddie were doing their business and then they looked at each other, they smiled at each other and then they moved towards each other.
“Ed’s-”
“Rich I was so fucking scared”
Then they hug each other
“I never been so scared in my whole life, I could if die”
“Breathe eddie, it’s over. Don’t worry we did it, we killed the clown, it all over”
“I have to tell you something, you gotta promise me. You won’t freak out”
“What is it Rich”?
“Ed’s I been in love with you for 30 years
"You’re”
Richie pulled away to see Eddie
“Yeah I’m gay… everything Bowers said about me was true when we were kids, there’s that”
“It’s fine Richie, I felt the same way about you”
They look at each other, slowly leaned in. They kissed passionately, Richie ran his fingers through Eddie’s hair. They pulled away and touched each other’s forehead. Then they heard whistling from the Losers, Eddie giggle and Richie started yelling at them
“OH COME ON, DON’T DO THAT, FUCK ALL OF YOU, ME AND EDDIE WERE HAVING A MOMENT!”
“SERIOUS RICHIE IT TOOK YOU THIS LONG TO TELL EDDIE HOW YOU FEEL. IT’S ABOUT TIME YOU GREW SOME BALLS, RICHIE” Stanley said
“WELL THATS JUST FUCKING RUDE”!
Everyone started laughing and splashing each other, playing childish games. Then they got tired and swam back to shore then started walking back to town. While they were walking and some of them were talking to each other. Eddie was right behind Richie, he looked down at Richie’s hand. He took a deep breath then he gently grabbed Richie hand then wrapped his fingers around, Richie looked at, Eddie, smiled then he did the same thing.
Skip time
When they went back to the hotel and everyone took a shower and settled down, they decided to celebrate their victory and their freedom. They were drinking like crazy, they were cracking jokes, playing games and a little bit of dancing. A few hours later when things were finally settled, everyone went to their room, but when Eddie was about to go into this room, he turned around and walked towards Richie room. He knocked on the door. Richie open the door and smiled at Eddie
“Hey Ed’s what brings you here”?
“Nothing I was just wondering what if I can sleep with you tonight”
“Oh s-sure Eddie”
“Okay just let me get somethings and I’ll be in there”
“Okay”
Eddie walked back into this room and grabbed a couple of small things like, toothbrush, toothpaste, his phone etc. Then he changed into his pajamas, grabbed his things and went into Richie’s room.
“Richie is everything okay?”
“Yeah, I’m just thinking”
“That’s dangerous”
“Yeah, so are you”
“What that supposed to mean?”
“I like you Eddie… More than anything”
Eddie smiled and he remembered how his heart was pounding against his chest and having butterflies in his stomach.
“I like you too, Richie more than a friend”
Richie smiled and hold Eddie hand
“What do we do”
“Well, first of all stop calling me Ed’s
Richie rolled his eyes and chuckled
"Second, we should wait and see what happens next?”
Richie looked at Eddie, he placed his hand on Eddie cheek and gently rubbed his cut on his face. He closed his eyes and moved closer into Richie’s hand, he looked up at him. Eddie leaned in, then he kissed him. Richie pulled Eddie closer and made the kiss deeper. Eddie grip onto his hair. Richie gently pushed him down onto the bed and they had a heated make out. When they pulled apart to catch their breath, Eddie pushed Richie onto his back then he got on top of him.
Eddie slowly took off his shirt

~*~*~*~*~
Present - Rosalia
Quietly I slipped into the duelling hall, but still managed to catch the attention of everyone’s favourite werewolf. Years of training allowed me to see how his demeanour turned cold momentarily as we made eye contact but as soon as his focus returned to the class of First Years in front of him, he resumed his usual warm demeanour. I couldn’t help but feel a little putout but, it was to be expected. Instead of making a fuss I walked around the mixed group of Gryffindor and Ravenclaw First Years and stood with Remus at the front of the room because whether he liked it or not, we were going to have to work together.
“Now I would like for you all to get into pairs as we will be practising the formalities of duelling and the body binding spell – Petrificus Totalus. Now don’t get your wants out yet, just say it nice a clearly… Petrificus Totalus” He spoke clearly in a commanding way that had all of the student’s mesmerized. 
“Petrificus Totalus” the class replied back in unison. 
“Well done” Remus praised, almost like he knew how much a little encouragement could go.
“One more time please,” he asked and their reply shortly followed. 
After that he allowed them to split off into their chosen pairs to practice the spell, many didn't master it and all their wands produce was a small whining noise that soon died out but never the less Remus continued to support them by giving them snippets of advice that could vastly improve their skill much like he had done for me during our Second Year at Hogwarts. For the lucky few that did manage to successfully produce the spell, I was left to help out their partner and answer any burning questions they had about today's lesson. After 30 minutes of the exercise, Remus called the room to attention to announce that they would be getting the chance to witness some of the spells they would learn throughout the year as well as proper duelling etiquette. 
“Miss Black, if you would be so kind as to accompany me to the platform…” Remus politely asked.
I was a little surprised by his request, not because of what he was asking me to do but because he addressed me directly – all be it without casting so much as a glance in my direction.
“Please gather around but keep a safe distance from the platform itself for your own safety.” The young children did as they were told.  
We faced each other in the middle of the platform and at this proximity, I could see how much the fifteen years had actually aged him. We brought their wands up to our faces before dropping them to our sides, bowing low as a sign of respect before walking five paces away from each other. In our Hogwarts days, Remus was the better dualist but after all of my training and experience as an Auror, we were more of an equal footing. We assumed the starting stances and waited in silence. The children watched, eyes wide, mouths open expecting nothing less than a fantastic show.  
“Petrificus Totalus!” I exclaimed, but just like in our childhood Remus was ready for the attack, and countered it with the spell ‘Protego’.  
The dual continued, spells being shot back and forth, one after the other in a ceaseless flurry that made the watching students wonder if the pair were too equally matched. Both had vast experience in duelling from their schooling years as well as the First Wizarding War but surely one had to be better than the other. The minutes that flew past saw us both gain the upper hand but subsequently lose it, this continued for a while but sometimes one of us would be moments away from victory however the other would snatch it away allowing the duel to continue. The longer the battle the more tired Remus and I got, meaning we weren't as sharp in casting spells, countering attacks or defending ourselves.  
With slightly ragged breathing we looked at each other before I seized the opportunity.
“Expelliarmus!” I had expected to have the final say in our duel and finish it but Remus wouldn't give me that victory not with the mood he was in. He cast a defence spell before quickly following it with ‘Expelliarmus’ too. hadn't expected the follow-up attack and was surprised to feel my wand leave my hand. 
The room erupted into applause. We bowed once more and as I made a mental note to never underestimate Remus Lupin again. He went on to talk about how etiquette should always be upheld in any duel as a sign of respect - even if they didn't like their opponent. Smiling to myself I couldn't help think that even though what he was saying was true, it may be slightly aimed at me…Maybe. Then again it might not. The only person that would know is Remus Lupin himself. 
Once Remus had finished his speech, he gave the first years homework then dismissed them leaving us alone. I watched his back as he walked to the door to leave.  
“You always were a great teacher” I offered in a bid to get him to stop, however, he never missed a beat and continued away from me, I had to widen my steps in order to catch up with his retreating form. It may have looked a little odd to anyone watching, our pace was so fast someone may have thought that we were running away. I struggled at first to keep the same pace as Remus, his longer legs giving him the advantage, once I'd fallen into step alongside him, I tried again to strike a conversation. 
"What topic is tomorrows lesson with the third years going to be?" Although the question was innocent it still earned a quick scowl and was met by silence. 
I sighed through my nose before carrying on "I understand that nocturnal beasts won't be started for weeks so that leaves things like Boggarts, Red Caps, Hinkypunks and Salaman-"  
"What I teach is to be no concern of you Miss Black" he spoke calmly but the indignant way he said my name had me thinking something different. 
"No concern?" I replied, slightly baffled. 
"Precisely" 
I was quiet as we walked the remainder of the corridor and crossed the threshold of the classroom, once the door had closed, I spoke again copying Lupin's indignant tone.  
"Actually Mr Lupin I think you'll find that I am here to assist in the teaching of Defence Against the Dark Arts, so it is my concern too"  
"I am not going to be in need of your help" 
"I think you find you are, which was one of the reasons why Dumbledore recruited me"  
Remus didn’t reply and went about his business setting out textbooks ready for his next lesson. 
"If it was anyone else you wouldn’t mind working with them... would you?" I questioned after a while. 
Showing me his back, he stopped what he was doing allowing me to walk around the room until there was just a desk between us. He studied the cover of the books he was currently holding like it was the most fascinating thing in the world. 
"Remus say something please"  
"Your sudden reappearance opens up a lot of questions but I have nothing to say to you" he replied with the same calm tone as before. 
"Look, there's no need for any sort of friendship or anything but you need to talk to me" I reached out and touched his arm, the worn fabric of his cardigan felt rough under my fingertips and I could feel the heat he was emitting but soon after all I could feel was the coolness of the air, he had moved away at such an impressive speed you could've sworn that I’d burned him. Crossing my arms over my chest I continued to look at him, his gaze still trained on the hardwood floor. 
"Fifteen years..." His whispered barely audible. 
"Pardon?" I replied in a similarly soft tone. 
"Fifteen Years," Remus repeated clearly, his head lifted and he locked eyes with mine. I opened my mouth to speak but Remus beat me to it. 
"For fifteen years you let me believe that you were dead. Fifteen years I have been alone while you've been off gallivanting, but that’s just typical of you, isn't it! You never were one to care for the feelings of others though were you?-" He tried his best to keep himself composed but with every passing syllable I knew he was losing his grip.  
"Remus that’s not fa-" 
"Life is not fair!" His voice was raised slightly, not enough for others to hear but loud enough that I flinched. 
"That’s your response to everything! Always was, always will be" I replied in the same way, beginning to feel equally upset. 
"Because it's true!" He slammed the remaining textbooks onto the nearest desk. 
"No!" I shouted "You think that everything is unfair simply because of your blasted condition" 
"And there is nothing I can do to change that! But you one the other hand, you could've reached out! It takes mere moments to send a message"  
"I... Remus, it's..." I tried desperately to quickly form an argument against him but came up with nothing 
"That's all I needed, one message, something that let me know that you were alive, for God's sake is that too much to ask?!" He was right, it would've taken only a moment, but that could've compromised everyone's safety. 
"Remus you wouldn't understand,"  I said exasperated. 
"Why? Because of my condition," He seethed.
"Keep your voice down! That’s not what I meant and you know that" 
"How am I supposed to know anything when you won’t tell me!"  
I pinched the bridge of my nose and let out a harsh huff of air, it was no good shouting at each other and if we carried on we would undoubtedly get louder and continue on in circles, there would be no way to explain the reasons why when we were both in a mood. It would only lead to more frustration. Casting him one last look I turned on my heel and left him standing in the middle of the classroom.  
As I left part of me hoped that he would follow and try to stop me but he didn’t. So, I continued on my way back to my rooms. My strides long and fast, my expression like thunder; matching my mood.
