flu blues...
...the one where chan gets sick and feels guilty about not being able to attend fan call events so you take it upon yourself to make him feel better <3 (warnings: soup and being sick)
the moment chan cracked open the door, his glassy eyes peeked out, paired with a sheepish sniffle. his voice was a hoarse whisper.
“hey…”
you stepped inside, arms full of essentials: soup, medicine, and the fluffiest blanket you could find. “hey? that's all i get? you’re sick, not on a secret mission.”
chan attempted a chuckle but dissolved into a coughing fit. you guided him back to the couch where he’d apparently been living. strewn tissues, half-empty mugs of tea, and a laptop with an endless chain of apology drafts to STAYs littered the coffee table.
“before you start. yes, i postponed the fan calls,” he said, groaning as he sank into the cushions. “and yes, i feel awful about it. worse than this flu, probably.”
you gave him a pointed look, placing a hand on his forehead. “chan, your temperature is higher than what jeongin told me when he called me to come over. the fans will live. you, however, need soup.”
he pouted, rubbing his nose with a tissue. “but—”
“no buts,” you interrupted, already ladling soup into a bowl. “you’re not running the world today. you’re barely running your sinuses.”
“wow, poetic.” he sniffled, pulling the blanket around himself. “but i can’t just sit and-”
“chan,” you said, holding up a spoonful of soup. “open up or i’m force-feeding you like a toddler.”
he blinked at you, bewildered, before reluctantly opening his mouth. “this feels degrading.”
“you’re lucky i don’t have one of those airplane spoons,” you quipped, and he snorted mid-swallow.
the day went on like that: you making him rest while he grumbled about the pile of work awaiting him. at one point, he tried sneaking his laptop back onto his lap, only for you to confiscate it.
“let me remind you of something,” you said, holding the laptop hostage. “resting isn’t slacking off. it’s so you can be 100% when you do work. your body’s not a machine.”
chan groaned, flopping back into the couch. “i hate it when you’re right.”
“get used to it,” you replied smugly.
despite his guilt, chan’s mood brightened as the evening wore on. you caught him smiling as you made exaggerated commentary during a rerun of a cheesy action movie. his hoarse laugh filled the room when you made fun of the villain's over-the-top monologues.
by bedtime, his eyes were drooping, exhaustion finally winning. you tucked the blanket around him one last time.
“you’re amazing, you know that?” he mumbled sleepily, his voice softer now.
“yeah, i know,” you teased, ruffling his hair. “now sleep, my star.”
as you turned to leave, his hand reached out weakly, catching yours. his fingers were warm against yours, soft despite the roughness of his usual work.
“stay?” he murmured, eyes half-lidded and a little dazed. “just… for a bit?”
your heart softened immediately. you climbed onto the couch beside him, letting him curl into your side like a sleepy cat. his head found its place on your shoulder, and you pulled the blanket over both of you.
“wait actually you shouldn't. what if you fall sick too-” he mumbled again, his words slurring as he drifted further into sleep.
“and then i'll let you take care of me,” you whispered, smiling as you pressed a kiss to his temple. “now hush, or i’ll start charging for my services.”
chan let out a contented sigh, his breaths evening out as he fell completely asleep. the domestic stillness of the room wrapped around you like a second blanket, and you couldn’t help but feel at peace.
taking care of him like this felt as natural as breathing, as natural as being home.

sorority car wash luigi mangione x reader (18+)
smut summary: your best friend’s brother luigi visits your sorority’s spring fundraiser
warnings: long ass argument, our frat boy #graduated, rough as usual, name-calling, p in dis v :3, is car sex public? car sex, implied cheating, jealous quickie, assume everything is unedited
the fundraiser had drawn out the worst of penn state: truck drivers, high school football coaches, republicans with obvious gambling addictions. despite the obvious discomfort around dancing around frat row in a bikini, there was an undeniable satisfaction in knowing every passing gaze was a dollar to your name.
well — not necessarily your name. it was a dollar to your sorority house, your sisters, your reputation. your public display was, in all, an investment for an impressive bullet point on your college resume. any level-headed businessman would’ve been able to see that.
unfortunately for you, luigi mangione majored in computer science.
your heart falls to the floor the second you see his car swerve into the street. your feet move quickly, running up to the side of his car before any of the girls could hound a dollar out of him. his window is down and you’re in it, both whispering and yelling, “what the hell are you doing here?”
“car wash,” the brunette boy says flatly, gesturing to the hastily painted cardboard signs wrapped around your sorority house.
“it’s for penn students only.” you say, trying to wave him off. the thought of him—or anyone else from back home—meeting your new fair-weather city friends is unbearable. it would take months to salvage your pride.
“it doesn’t say that anywhere.” luigi argues. “plus, i’m an alumni.”
interest washes over the crowd of busy rich cheerleaders as they begin to inch nearer to the scene. you’re frazzled and fucked. “mangione, please don’t embarrass me.”
“you’re embarrassing yourself,” luigi says. his eyes glance over your body, skin exposed and wet with the moisture and mess of the event, boobs perky underneath your strappy bra. “seriously, what the fuck are you wearing?”
you feel a rush of insecurity as you bring your arms up to cover yourself. “it’s sorority tradition—“
“we didn’t do any of this at my frat—”
“it was an engineering frat, you didn’t do anything—!” as your whining comes to a close, a pool of your sorority sisters begin to flood around you. your heart rate sparks.
“who’s this?” your roommate asks.
the italian boy is quick to smile at the new company, his earlier furrowed brows and fault-finding demeanor vanishing in an instant. “i’m luigi,” he says with a brief wave. “i’m with y/n.”
“he means we’re friends from back home,” you correct quickly, shooting a glare at him. “he actually went here. he was in phi psi.”
“aw,” your roommate coos. “those guys do my homework all the time.”
he reaches over to open the car door, the force pushing you aside as it swings open. “get in the car,” luigi says. you pause, confusion swirling around you. then, luigi glances at your crowd of sisters, acknowledging them with a slight nod. “i’m borrowing her for the day. is there some sort of curfew i need to know about?”
“no, but it’s karaoke night,” one of your sisters tell him. “you should come! it’ll be at zbt.”
luigi raises a brow. “the sports frat?”
“yeah,” your sister says, grinning. “y/n’s boyfriend is the president. he’s super nice—you’d like him.”
his eyes flick to you. “boyfriend?”
“luigi’s busy tonight,” you say, forcing a tight smile, desperate to change the subject. “besides, he’s probably super jet-lagged—he is supposed to be backpacking through asia right now, after all.”
“yeah, well,” luigi says, his voice cool but with an edge that stings, “i stopped by for my sister’s birthday this weekend.” his eyes narrow as he looks straight at you. “guess one of us had to remember.”
your shoulders stiffen under the weight of his words, heat rising to your face.
“aw, luigi, you’re so sweet!” one of your housemates chimes, completely oblivious to the tension brewing. your guilt crashes over you, hot and suffocating. it’s almost embarrassing, the sudden clarity of how far you’ve strayed, how horrible you’ve become. “y/n’s boyfriend does cute stuff like that too. he came all the way down this morning to get pictures of her in this new outfit.”
if you didn’t feel stupid and cold before, you most definitely do now.
luigi glances over his shoulder. “isn’t the zbt house just around the corner?”
your housemate, still oblivious, grins and adds, “yeah! he’s always doing cute stuff like that for her. like, he prints a bunch of pictures of her and made a wall in his room because he thought she’d think it was sweet.”
you had no intention of your best friend’s brother ever finding out about your flamboyant college romances, yet here he was, gossiping with your girls. “he took that down as soon as i asked him to,” you explain.
“yeah, and ever since then, he sends flowers like, everyday.” your sister hums, bright-eyed. “so thoughtful, right?”
luigi’s jaw clenches, and his shoulders tense. “yeah, cute,” he says, voice low and biting. “guess that’s what happens when you’ve got nothing better to do than play personal assistant.”
“luigi.” you say, a desperate attempt to draw the line.
“get in, now,” he beckons.
luigi’s dark eyes never leave you, boring into you with a relentless intensity that makes your stomach churn. the look isn’t anger—it’s something deeper, more personal, and it clings to you as you fumble into the passenger seat. each movement feels heavier than the last, his unyielding stare haunting you as you slip inside, shutting the door between you and the reality you can’t escape.
the car swerves sharply, pulling you from your thoughts as you put your head in your hands. “i totally forgot,” you mutter, voice barely audible.
“clearly, you had distractions,” luigi says, his tone colder than you expected, like a wall between you both.
you feel his disappointment radiating through the air, and it hits harder than you’d like to admit. “you know,” he continues, his voice laced with bitterness, “back when we were close, you never would’ve forgotten something like that. but i guess things are different now.”
you wince, knowing he’s right. you’ve been so caught up in college, in the chaos of sorority life, parties, and the constant buzz of new experiences, that you’ve lost touch with everything that once mattered. and now, forgetting his sister’s birthday feels like the final nail in the coffin.
the silence hangs heavily between you, suffocating and full of unspoken truths. you can’t even find an apology that would suit the sin.
he reaches over to the backseat, tossing his jacket over your cold body, his fingers brushing against your skin as he does. “you look stupid like this,” he mutters, his voice laced with something deeper than frustration.
“it’s fucking weird,” luigi continues. “i used to watch you, how effortlessly you picked things up, how eager and excited you were for everything.” he sighs, his gaze flickering to you for a moment, like he’s trying to see the version of you he once knew. “but now… now it’s like you’re someone else. all that potential, all that drive—it’s like you’ve buried it under all this nonsense. i don’t even recognize you anymore.”
“oh, come on, luigi,” you say, defensive. it felt weird to have him like this—so cruel, so suddenly. “i make one mistake and now you don’t recognize me?”
he tuts, then rolls his eyes. “don’t act fucking dense.”
“i’m sorry, okay?” you say, half-defeated. “you’re not exactly giving me a chance to explain.”
“an explanation isn’t good enough.”
“just because i forgot one day doesnt mean im not here,” you argue. “you’re the one left the fucking country!”
luigi almost laughs at the dead argument. “and you stayed and still couldn’t show up when it mattered. how’s that any better?”
“i didn’t forget on purpose!” you can feel your temperature rising. “i’ve just been swamped with everything, alright? it’s not like i don’t care.”
luigi’s hands grip the steering wheel tightly, his knuckles white. “so that’s your excuse?” he says, his voice sharp. “too busy to remember my sister’s birthday, but not too busy for that stupid fucking boyfriend of yours?” he laughs bitterly, shaking his head. “god, you even joined that sorority for him, didn’t you?”
your face goes white and he takes it as confirmation. “fucking knew it. that’s exactly what it is, isn’t it? you’re too busy trying to be a penn girl, pretending like you fit in, just because he’s part of it. you’re so caught up in his world that you can’t even bother to remember the people who actually care about you.”
you’re cold underneath his judgement, almost speechless. almost. “this is why i didn’t want you finding out about him,” you truth.
“i was in a frat, y/n. i’ve seen girls like you before. weekends spent doing dumb shit like car washes for the sorority, all glittered up for spirit week like it’s some huge fucking accomplishment.” his anger cuts into you like a blade. “you're too fucking good for that.”
your heart is pounding now, and you feel your face flush with anger, embarrassment, and something else—deep, gnawing ache in your chest. your fingers tighten around the door handle. you can’t stand sitting here, suffocating under his judgment. without thinking, you yank the door open, trying to escape the weight of his accusations.
but before you can move, luigi’s hand shoots out, slamming the door shut. “what the fuck are you doing?”
“i don’t want to talk about this anymore.” you say, trying to push down the panic rising in your chest. you don’t want to be here anymore. not in this car. not with him looking at you like you’re some stranger.
“you’re not getting out of this car, y/n.”
you don’t respond. instead, you unbuckle your seatbelt and shove the door open, stepping out of the car before he can stop you. it’s like your whole body is running on autopilot—everything inside you screaming to get away from the mess he’s created, from the mess inside you.
“y/n!” luigi’s voice cracks, rising in a panic as he stops the car and jumps out after you.
you are not turning around and getting into that car and letting him humiliate you. your hands shake as you pull out your phone, desperate for some relief, something to help you make sense of all this. the contact name lights up on your screen, and you hit call, needing your boyfriend now more than ever.
before you can even hear the first ring, a hand shoots out, grabbing your wrist and yanking your phone from your grasp. you whip your head around, heart pounding in your chest, only to find luigi, his jaw clenched tight and eyes burning with fury.
“what the hell are you doing?” you demand, your voice shaking with a mixture of anger and frustration. “give it back!”
but he doesn’t budge, holding your phone just out of reach. his voice is a low growl. “you’re fucking unbelievable. you’re seriously calling your boyfriend right now?” he’s glaring at you, his face hard with a mix of disbelief and something deeper you can’t quite place.
“you made your point, mangione!” you say. “clearly you already hate me, so i don’t see the point in sticking around for the ride. thanks for the reminder! see you around!”
“y/n, stop, i don’t hate you—“
“y/n? hello?” your boyfriend’s voice crackles through the phone, confused, a little worried.
luigi straightens, his hand tightening around the phone as he holds it to his mouth. “she’s busy.” he tosses the phone back into his car, cutting off the call with a finality that makes your heart race in frustration.
he opens his mouth for another lecture but your hard heart won’t let him in anymore. you’re beyond annoyed. he can keep the fucking phone, for all you care, you really just needed a second. you try to turn away, but he’s too fast. he grabs your wrist, pulling you back, and you’re caught off guard by the force in his touch. the heat between you is unbearable now, and the intensity of it makes your mind race.
“let go of me!”
“no,” luigi snaps, his voice harsh but laced with something you can’t quite place. “you don’t walk away from me.”
“i can do whatever i want!”
“you’re sure about that?”
without warning, he pulls you toward him, and before you can fully process what’s happening, his lips are on yours. it’s rough, unexpected, and it throws you off balance. your breath catches in your throat, and for a split second, you don’t know what to do.
your mind spins. this is worse than wrong. you shouldn’t be kissing him.
his grip on you is unyielding like the force of gravity, and you’re suffocating underneath the pressure, your confusion mixing with a strange, undeniable pull that makes your thoughts scatter. you pull away quickly, breathless and disoriented.
“luigi, no—stop,” you say, trying to regain your bearings, but your heart is still racing, your body still tingling from the kiss.
he doesn’t. he won’t.
his mouth is on yours again, aggressive and intent and so fucking mean. your balance is completely lost, your feet no longer sure of the ground beneath you. luigi doesn’t let up, his body pressing you into the side of his car and it’s like everything you knew about him is shifting, unraveling before your eyes.
when he pulls back, your chest heaves as if you’ve been starved for air. you try to summon another surge of pride, but luigi moves faster than your thoughts can catch. “lift up your legs,” he grumbles against your lips. you do. he carries you on him as he yanks open the door to the back seat, his hot breath hovering over your neck.
“you’re so fucking stupid,” luigi mutters into another sloppy kiss. “need me to teach you how to behave, yeah?”
desire and desperation muddle your better judgement. everytime you come up for air, you try to return to reason. “we shouldn’t—”
“let me,” he says. “i’m gonna take care of you.”
you shake your head as his warm hands grope and clutch at your cold nude. he was right—it was a stupid fucking outfit.
“relax,” luigi says, climbing over you, biting and sucking at your neck. you feel him between your legs, hardening. “you need me to teach you how to show you the ropes, don’t you? you need me, right, baby?”
“i have a boyfriend,” you whimper.
“doesn’t matter.” he says. “you belong to me.”
you’re in the corner of his car and there was no escape. luigi was all over you, grabbing, pulling, biting. “come on,” he beckons, coming in for another kiss. “make yourself useful, baby, i came all this way.” his fingers moving your bikini to the side and sliding his slender fingers into your aching clit. you quiver as he breaches your entrance.
“how often do you fuck him?” he asks, his two fingers digging into your core, storming your senses. the abruptness of the question made your nerves spike. there’s a certain amusement in his gaze, as if your misfortune is his greatest entertainment. “where? hm? hallways? dorms? in the shower, after his games, d’you spread your legs open to make him feel better about being a goddamn loser?” he’s intent on leaving your skin covered with evidence of him. he paints across your neck with his hot wet tongue, sucking and biting at your sensitive skin. you whimper at the sensation. “you’d make a perfect fuckin’ trophy wife.”
“i didn’t—“ you truth, shaky and red. “we never…”
“god,” he moans. “good fuckin’ girl, saving yourself for me.”
your mind is hazy, though not completely lost. “you’re jealous? of him?”
“why would i be?” luigi asks, smug. he knows he has every damn right he every right to be—he feels your slick drooling out of you, your body quivering underneath him. “i’m the only one who gets to have you like this.”
he reaches for his belt. you need this as much as he does. he can see the way your eyes flutter shut at the feeling of his shifty friction, and it sends heat rushing down his abdomen. no reason to be patient about this.
“someone’s gonna see,” you whine.
luigi laughs against your mouth. “go on then, show them what a perfect fuckin’ penn girl you are.”
you barely hear him. your lower lip is between your teeth as you work to free his cock from his boxers, and he hisses in pleasure as you pump him gently, smearing his precum down his shaft. he reaches between your legs to hook his finger around your panties, pulling the gusset to the side.
your cunt glistens. you’re soaked.
“you’re unbelievable,” he grunts. “acting out because you couldn’t get any good dick?”
“you’re so mean to me.”
“just missed you, is all,” he murmurs.
you’d never expected him to be so big. you brace yourself on his shoulder with your free hand, sinking down on him gradually. you’re so wet that it only takes a moment to adjust to his size before you’re rocking against him again, and he pulls you back in for another hungry kiss, guiding your hips with his hands. a grin etches at the edge of his lips when he feels your cunt tightening around him when he brings his fingertips to your clit. “what, already, babe?” luigi teases, pretending his own release isn’t just moments away. “c’mon, that’s gotta be a new record.” you try to laugh, but he pushes the pressure on your clit, and you arch your back as the coil in your belly tightens.
“you’re so big, luigi,” you choke out.
“i know, pretty girl, i know,” he tries to assure, though he’s too lost in his storm of pleasure to have the decency to slow down.
tears well up in your eyes as he buries his cock deeper into you. hot flashes of pain and pleasure overwhelm you; it’s a devastating spell of torment and sanctuary. “luigi,” you whine. “too much, i can’t—“
“you’re so fuckin’ tight.” luigi says. “fuckin’ perfect, you know that?”
“i can’t, lu,” you whine. “you’re too big—”
“be a good girl,” he says. his cock bullies into your sensitivity. you swear you hear yourself snap in half. “let me fill you up, princess, let me make you mine.”
you’re a mess underneath him, whimpering and crying at the unfamiliar pleasure. something in the background begins to hum over and over and over until luigi glances over his shoulder. “your boyfriend’s calling,” he says. “you should answer, show him what a perfect slut you’re being for me.”
you run your head back and forth. “no? you don’t wanna do that for me?” he questions, eyebrow raising. he raises your body—closer,deeper—just to slap his hand against your ass. you jolt at the pain, shivering. “thought you were being good.”
“luigi,” you cry. “it hurts.”
“fuck,” he moans. he can’t help but slap your ass again. “you gotta make it up to me, y/n. you gotta let me come inside you.”
“lu, wait—“ you begin weakly, tangling your fingers in his hair. he cuts you off by sucking harshly at the delicate skin of your throat, and instantly you feel the coil snap.
“jus’ like that, baby, all mine,” he growls into your skin. you feel him smile against your neck as he marks it up. “i should visit home more often, yeah?”
“lu, please,” you moan.
“tell me who you belong to.”
“you, luigi. i belong to you.” you cry out as you convulse around luigi’s cock, slumping forward onto his muscular chest with a shiver. the sensation of your walls clamping down on him like a vice makes luigi dig his fingers into your flesh as he pumps his own release into you, swearing raggedly as his hips buck.
aside from the sound of your breathing, the car falls into a complicated silence, the windows clouded, blurring the world outside like some unspoken secret. your heart races as you both sit there, dazed, caught between confusion and something deeper. the empty neighborhood feels almost dreamlike, a quiet refuge for a moment too fragile to face the world. silently, you’re grateful for the solitude, for the way it shields you both.
“relax,” luigi mutters, his voice cutting through the haze. “this whole street was bought up by some real estate asshole. prices went sky-high, and no one took the bait.”
you glance at him, startled by the sudden softness in his tone. “is that true?”
luigi doesn’t answer right away. instead, he reaches over to the passenger seat, grabbing your phone. the motion is deliberate, almost taunting, as if he’s enjoying how unsteady you’ve become.
he tosses the phone onto your lap, the thud startling in the heavy air. “penn daily did a piece on it” he says, his voice low but cutting. “you can look it up after you break up with your boyfriend.”
your eyes widen, and you grab the phone quickly, clutching it as if it could ground you. “god, can you stop bringing him up for two seconds?”
“why?” he retorts, leaning back against his seat with a knowing smirk. “you brought him into this when you started dating the guy who shows you off to frat row and makes you fake-smile your way through glitter car washes.”
“he wasn’t even at the car wash this time,” you mutter, frustration bubbling up.
“too busy setting up karaoke night? are we going to that?”
“no.”
“my sister would probably love it,” he points out playfully. “and i know you didn’t get her a present.”
you roll your eyes, trying to avoid the guilt that wells up. “don’t remind me.”
“don’t be a brat,” he retorts, his voice firm but not unkind.
“I’m not being a brat,” you snap back, but there’s a hint of defensiveness in your tone.
“yeah, you are,” he says, his voice softening just a little. “but we’ll deal with that later.”
he glances over at you, a hint of a smirk on his face. turning your gaze to the window, avoiding his eyes. god, how were you meant to recover from this? another silence encapthres you and the awful spell of awkwardness washes over you both. until—
“you know i could never hate you, right?”
“hm?”
“you said earlier i made up my mind about you,” he murmurs, his eyes holding yours in a way that makes it impossible to look away. “i have… but not in the way you think.”
your breath catches, his words pulling at something deep inside you. “then how?”
“i’ve always liked you,” he says softly, his voice steady but tinged with something deeper. “hated seeing you go. hated the idea of you at college with some asshole who doesn’t see you the way i do.”
your heart skips, his words unraveling every doubt you’ve ever had. “and how do you see me?” you ask, barely finding your voice.
he leans closer, his gaze unwavering. “as everything.”

Train Ride - Chapter 2, Jeongin
A/N: Apologies, this is later than originally intended. During my proofreading, I realized I kept flipping tenses, which – annoying. But that meant I had to do a little more heavy editing than I intended. Do you ever just look at a word while proofreading and think ‘that’s not a real word’, but it totally is and is in fact the correct word you meant to use? Yeah, happened a few times. Please lmk if you want to be added to the taglist.
To my new followers – hello, welcome. My fic ideas are few and, sometimes, far between. But I hope you continue to enjoy this one. Oh, that said, don’t think I won’t finish this one. This one is already more than half finished and the half that isn’t written is outlined.
Cw/tw for this chapter: vaginal fingering, nipple play unprotected vaginal sex, oral sex (m & f receiving), “accidental” exhibitionism, threesome
wc: 2675
Chapter One Three
Over the next week, the pair of you discussed your boundaries. Mostly they vary based on what the other individual guys might like or want, but there were hard lines for both of you. Mostly for you, and mostly centered on things you just didn’t like to do sexually. Though you did include things like allowing them all to have you with no additional protection since you had an IUD. As long as they were comfortable with it, you already knew they were all clean. The one hard rule was that if, at any time, you or Chan realized this type of sexually-opened, hopefully fully polyamorous, relationship was no longer working for you as a couple or as individuals, you’d say something. You two would keep talking about it, and include the others when and if they decided to fully be in a relationship with either of you, to keep making sure it was still a healthy relationship for all involved.
Then the conversation turned to how to invite the other seven members. You suggested posting a pic or short video of yourself masturbating into the group chat and inviting anyone who wanted to to come over and play.
Chan groaned, then laughed. “I think you’d give more than one of them a heart attack if you tried that. But definitely hold onto that idea for later.”
You then agree that they should be approached one-on-one, with each method to be different, depending on who you’re approaching. You suggested Jeongin first, seeing as he’s Chan’s roommate. You figure, and Chan agrees, that’ll make him the easiest target.
You specifically chose a day he has a schedule without the others, a photo shoot that was just him. Chan invited you over after he’d already left, letting you know that, as long as nothing went wrong, I.N would be back to their apartment by 3:30. You tried to keep yourselves distracted, not wanting to get started too soon. After all, it wouldn’t look like you’d accidentally forgotten what time he’d be back if he walked in after you were finished. Still, the anticipation and desire was making you both squirmy.
Finally, Chan’s reminder alarm goes off. You couldn’t help it, the second he looked at you after silencing it, you started giggling.
“Baby?”
“Sorry. Just, ya know, us – scheduling sex.” You laughed harder and he joined in this time. Your giggles continued, even as he gripped your hips and pulled you against him, dipping his head down to press open mouthed kisses to your neck. Chan makes quick work of your clothes, leaving you completely naked in no time.
“Already so wet, baby girl,” he muttered against the skin over your sternum as he runs a finger up and down your slit.
“Like you haven’t been hard for the last hour,” you countered. He only hummed, not denying it. That caused another gush of arousal from you – knowing he wanted this as much as you.
He laid you back on the couch, steadily kissing, licking, and sucking his way down your body until he got where he wanted to be. The flat of his tongue pressing against your clit had you arching your hips toward him and reaching down to grip his hair.
Despite inviting Jeongin to join you being the whole point, neither of you noticed right away when he walked in. It was when you heard his bag drop to the floor that you looked up and caught sight of him, flushed and staring at you. You were facing the front door and Chan had his back to it so, if not for your boyfriend blocking his view, he’d have a perfect view of your wet cunt.
“Innie,” you whimpered, reaching out toward him and digging a heel into Chan’s side. Chan pulled away, the bottom of his face coated in your arousal.
“Shit, sorry, Iyen-ah. Didn’t realize you’d be back already.” When he didn’t respond, but his eyes drifted down and locked on your pussy, the pair of you grinned at each other. “Iyen-ah?” Chan worked to hide his amusement as he waved a hand in front of the other’s man’s face.
That seemed enough to jolt him back to what was going on. He dropped his face, cheeks flushing deeper with the embarrassment of being caught. “Shit. Sorry, hyung. Sorry, noona. I’ll just, uh…. Go, yeah, I….”
“Innie, do you want a taste?”
His head snapped up and gaze locked on Chan’s face so fast, it almost gave you whiplash just from seeing it. “What?”
“I know how good she looks, spread out like this. And I can see you like what you see,” Chan nodded at the noticeable bulge in his pants. “Do you. Want. A taste?” He repeated his question, just a little slower.
“I… uh…. I mean –”
“Innie, please,” you pleaded, holding out your hand to him again. Slowly, nervously, Jeongin made his way over to you, eyes fixed on your face with a look that said he was waiting for someone to say you were just teasing him or you’d changed your mind. When he got close, you popped up just enough to grab his shirt and pull him in toward you. He stumbled a bit, but caught himself by bracing one hand on the back of the couch and the other landed just barely under you. “Do you wanna kiss me?” You asked softly, lips already close to his where he hovered over you.
“Yes,” he whispered, nodding. You grinned and pulled him fully into you. The small moan that escaped him as your lips connected had you clenching around nothing in anticipation. Chan, from his new vantage point sitting on the floor beside the couch, had a perfect view of it and reached out to squeeze your calf.
You weren’t sure if he realized then that you weren’t joking with him, or if he’d just decided to take advantage for as long as he could, but Jeongin quickly took control of the kiss. He tugged his hand out from under you, cupping your cheek and tilting your head for a better angle to deepen the kiss. One knee came down between your spread thighs to better hold himself up. His hand came off the back of the couch, fingertips grazing down your side, from shoulder to hip.
“Tease,” you muttered, pulling away just enough to speak, but your lips still touched his as you spoke. This time, as that same hand travelled down your side, his thumb brushed over your nipple causing you to gasp against his lips. This seemed to be all the encouragement he needed as his touches became a lot firmer and more deliberate after that. He shifted so that the hand that had been cupping your cheek was now holding your hip, thumb gently rubbing against the skin there. Starting at your jaw line, he began pressing open mouthed kisses across your jaw, under your ear, down your neck, and over your collar bone. You tangled the fingers of one hand in his hair, not letting him move too far away from your skin.
The hand on your hip slid over and two of his fingers gently pressed into you at the same time he wrapped his lips around one of your nipples. You moaned, arching into him and feeling him smirk against your nipple at your reaction. You whimpered, moaned, and writhed on the couch under Jeongin as he played your body as if he’d been taking lessons for years. He alternated sucking and licking your nipple, while his free hand pinched and rolled the other, then he switched sides. Meanwhile his fingers in your cunt were moving at the perfect speed to get you to and keep you on the edge of an orgasm without tipping over. Occasionally, his thumb would press on and gently rub circles against your clit. Again, just enough to not let you cum. It was maddening, but you loved it.
On the floor, Chan unzipped his pants with one hand to relieve the pressure while his other hand smoothed up and down the back of your calf, grounding himself and making sure you knew he was still there. He pressed a kiss to the top of your knee, causing you to jolt a little at the unexpected feeling.
“Forget I was here, baby girl?” Chan chuckled. You felt Jeongin twitch at Chan’s voice. “Clearly not the only one who forgot. Oh no, Iyen-ah,” Chan said as he started to back away. “Don’t stop now. She hasn’t cum yet, and you haven’t even had a real taste of her.”
Jeongin groaned, dropping his forehead to your chest. But his fingers didn’t stop. Instead, after a moment, his mouth started traveling down again, pressing open mouthed kisses to your tummy, licking or nibbling on the soft, smooth skin. He looked up at you, lips hovering over your cunt.
“Please, Innie.” Gently, you tugged at the hair you still had your fingers tangled in. He dropped a chaste kiss against your clit then wrapped his lips around it, flicking his tongue against the bundle of nerves, pulling matching moans from the pair of you. Chan’s grip on your calf tightened as he watched his friend finger you and suck on your clit. There was something about hearing the oh-so-familiar sounds you made when he wasn’t the one causing them that was driving him crazy in the best way.
You felt Jeongin’s tongue slip down to join his fingers, pushing into your cunt and thrusting a few times, before flicking up again to press against your clit. Your legs, that had been just spread on either side of him, came up to rest over his shoulders and hold his body against you as you grew closer to your orgasm. Finally, with a crook of his fingers and a particularly harsh suck of your clit, the coil in your belly snapped.
You arched up with a moan closer to a scream as you finally came. Jeongin kept working his fingers in you, letting you ride out your high on his digits. His fingers slowed to a stop as you came down from your high.
“Innie?” You asked, still trying to catch you breath.
“Hm?”
“Can I tell you a secret?”
“Of course, noona.”
“We didn’t forget when you were coming back home.”
“What?” He looked from you face to Chan’s, sitting up and pulling his fingers out of you as he did, causing you to whimper at the loss.
“When I said we didn’t realize you’d be back already, I lied,” Chan elaborated. “We planned for you to be home.”
“I don…. I don’t understand.”
You sat up beside him, tossing one of your legs over his, but let Chan explain. “Baby girl here has a fantasy.” He explained the whole situation.
“Hang on, is this why you were distracted last week?” Chan nodded.
“Listen,” you started off, starting to feel a little guilty about lying, or at the least misleading, your friend. “If you don’t want –”
“Oh no, I want. You’re not backing out, are you Y/nnie?” he asked with a sly smile.
“Not a chance,” you grinned, tugging up his shirt then pulling him to you by the back of his neck after he’d pulled the shirt all they way off. He kept moving forward until you were lying back on the couch again and he could slot his body back between your legs. You let your hands wander his torso, tracing the ridges of muscle as he reclaimed your lips in a hungry kiss.
His lips trailed down your neck again, this time biting and sucking a mark into the skin of your neck and another just below your collar bone. You scratched your nails over his abs, delighted when they twitched under your fingers. Then you reached down, gripping the waist band of his jeans with one hand and popping the button on them with the other. You felt him smirk against your skin, even as he helped you get him out of his pants and briefs.
You reached down, wrapping your hand his cock and stroking a couple times before shifting so you could press his tip to your entrance.
“Impatient, are you?” he teased.
“She usually is,” Chan agreed. “Even though she’s already cum twice.”
“Twice?”
“Mm. Once just before you walked in.”
“Enough talk, fuck me now,” you demanded, rolling your hips up. Jeongin laughed but didn’t deny you. Instead, he gripped under your knee, bending your leg up and slightly out to open you up to him better. As he slid into your warmth, his free hand groped for yours in an effort to keep himself grounded. When he bottomed out inside you, he held still, both of you breathing heavy.
You vaguely recognized the look on his face as similar to the look Chan got when he was doing his best to hold back and not come too soon. Instead of saying anything, you brought your hand that was holding his up to your mouth and wrapped first your tongue then your mouth around one of his fingers. With a groan, he flexed his hand, allowing you to trap two of his fingers between your lips. As he finally started rolling his hips, he copied the movement with his fingers in your mouth. You moaned around his fingers, sucking them as he went.
There was something soft in his eyes, just for a moment, as he looked down at you sucking on his fingers. Then it was gone and he’s pulling his hand out of yours and away from your face as he sat up on his knees. Using both hands on your hips to hold you in place, he pulled nearly all the way out then thrust back in, setting a fast, but not too rough, pace and pulling little ahs and moans from you every time he thrusts back in.
Over his shoulder, you catch sight of Chan, standing up and having rid himself of his pants and boxers. Reaching out to your boyfriend, you shift a bit so your head is hanging just slightly off the side of the couch. At Chan’s raised eyebrow, you just open your mouth while holding eye contact.
You lose yourself in the absolute pleasure of being fucked in your mouth and pussy at the same time. There’s something indescribably wonderful for you about the familiar sensation of Chan in your mouth and the new sensation of Jeongin in your cunt that makes it so, even if you tried, you’re not sure you could keep track of anything. You’re pretty sure it’s Chan whose mouth is wrapped around your nipple now, but you couldn’t say for sure, lost in the haze of your building orgasm. Someone’s fingers find your clit and apply just the perfect pressure to have you arching off the couch, scream muffled by Chan’s cock. Seconds later, you feel warmth flood your cunt as Jeongin comes, followed by a grunted warning from Chan before he’s coming down your throat.
Chan collapses to the floor, head on the couch beside you. Jeongin tries to stay sitting up for a second, but gives that up and lays down with his head on your chest, his own chest heaving as he tries to catch his breath. You reach out to both of them, toying with their hair as your breathing slowly returns to normal.
“Okay baby girl?” Chan asks.
“So okay,” you reply in a raspy voice.
“Shower or tea first?” It was one thing he always insisted on when he used your throat like that – soothing tea after.
“Sleep.”
“Nu-uh, that’s not one of the choices.”
“Ugh,” you groaned.
“Why don’t you take her up to the shower and I’ll bring tea?” Jeongin suggested.
You both agree, but it still takes a few minutes before anyone moves. A while later, you’re curled up with your head on Chan’s chest and Jeongin’s arm around your waist as you drift off to sleep.

Cold and Warm
So sorry for the lack of updates. I've been addicted to Marvel Rivals and school has started so assignments are already pouring in. Back into the Marvel rabbit hole I go~ (gd to know I'm still into the same character)
Summary: You find Bucky sleeping on the floor instead of your shared bed
It's not uncommon for Bucky to get up before you, he's always been a light sleeper and you've long grown used to him shifting around on the bed. What's uncommon is how long he's taking to climb back into bed. Bucky always came back to kiss you on the forehead, gently waking you up if needed by peppering you with more kisses all over your face or neck if you were lying face down, but this time around there was no such thing. The bed never dipped again under his weight even as seconds turned to minutes and then minutes turned to even more minutes, more than usual, making you worry. Still, you will yourself to remain on the bed, eyes closed just in case he needs more time but he never comes.
Restless, you slip out of bed, blindly fumbling for the clock on your bedside table. 3 am. This was far too early, even for Bucky, and you frown, stumbling your way out of the room. The house is completely dark, save for a stream of light coming from the living room that is accompanied by the sound of someone talking.
Cautiously, you approach the source, ready to fight any possible intruder, or more likely to just yell for your husband to come and rescue you — his favourite kind of opportunity to show off, only to find your husband fast asleep on the floor, curled up next to the couch while the television in front of him blares whatever program is going on now.
Eyebrows furrowed, you silently make your way over, tapping him on the shoulder.
"Hey," you whisper. "The couch is right there."
Icy blue eyes snap open, staring right past you as a metal hand wraps around your throat, squeezing tightly. Eyes wide, you gasp for air, hitting his metal arm in a futile attempt to get him to release you.
"Buck!" Your lungs constrict, struggling to inhale the oxygen your body so desperately needs. "Buck!"
"Doll?" His voice comes out as a hoarse whisper and suddenly all the air comes rushing back into your lungs. Coughing, you collapse to the floor, rubbing your throat.
"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry!" Bucky panics, scrambling for what to do next. He stumbles out of the room, rushing back in moments later with a cup of water that he hastily shoves at you. His blue eyes are filled with anxiety, guilt, fear and it makes your heart ache.
"Not your fault," you rasp, throat still raw despite the water. "Should have known better than to wake you like that."
"I still hurt you." His gaze is downcast, metal arm pulled against his chest. "I'm sorry."
He curls into a little ball, tucking his knees to his chest, trapping his metal arm between them. He refuses to meet your gaze, looking away every time you try to look him in the eye until you give up and sit on the floor next to him with a sigh. He scoots away, putting as much distance between the two of you as possible which only breaks your heart further. You hate seeing him like this, so full of guilt and self-hatred over things he can't control, beating himself up over and over again because it's what he's used to, it's what he knows.
"I forgive you." You know you can't argue with him, not when he's so convicted that it's his fault, so you opt to lessen the blow, show him that he doesn't have to torture himself over things outside his control. He remains silent, still huddling as far away from you as possible.
You hold out your hand, palm facing upwards in a little ritual the two of you have created over the past few months. It took a while for the both of you to get a hang of it but recently Bucky has been getting much better at it, and he's even initiated one himself. You lean back on your other palm, keeping your eyes trained on the television and angle yourself such that you're facing both him and the television, waiting for him to make a move.
In the last month, you've learnt that Bucky hates it when people stare at him, even if it's you. He hates the way eyes follow him, seemingly staring into his very soul and the feeling gets worse when he's vulnerable. You try to keep your eyes on the television, forcing yourself to trust that he will find his footing, that he will come to you when he's ready and push aside the worry that threatens to overwhelm you in favour of ensuring that he feels comfortable. Still, you keep an eye on him just in case anything happens, but so far so good.
You wait with bated breath for a warm touch on your cooling palm, the sign that Bucky is open to talking again and it takes a while but his palm finally touches yours, gently resting on it.
"Hey," you smile softly at him.
"Hey," he croaks.
"Need some water?" You offer him the cup and he shakes his head. You give his hand a gentle squeeze and he squeezes back, a small smile creeping onto his face.
"How's the show?" You gesture at the television that's still blaring in the dead of night and he shrugs, eyebrows furrowed.
"Can't remember what happened, so I don't think it's any good." His reply elicits a snort from you and you shuffle closer. Him cracking jokes is a good sign, and the fact that he's smiling, even if he's trying to hide it from you, makes you feel better. He shifts a little, the gap now closed such that your knee is touching his leg when you sit cross-legged and his thumb brushes over your skin.
"I'm sorry for waking you, doll," he murmurs. "I just…needed some fresh air."
"In the living room?" You raise an eyebrow.
"It's bigger," he huffs, giving you a little pout.
"Right…so how's the floor? Comfy?"
"A little."
"Maybe I should give it a shot, then we can sell the bed and just sleep on the floor," you hum, grinning at him.
"I would advice against that." He untucks his metal arm, gently touching your knee with the cool metal. You give him a nod and he loosely holds your other hand with his metal one, still afraid of hurting you further. You tightly grip onto his metal hand, pulling him closer and he lets you, wanting to close the gap but unsure if you want to.
"And that's why I found you sleeping on the floor?" You shoot him a bemused look which quickly falters when you see his saddened expression.
"Sorry," you mumble.
"You didn't know. There's nothing to be sorry about." He squeezes your hand with his flesh one tightly. "I…didn't want you to find out this way either."
"You don't have to tell me if you don't want to, sugar plum. I don't have to know it." You gently cup his face with your other hand, stroking his cheek as tears begin to fall from his eyes.
"I — you — you deserve to know. Everything." He inhales a sharp breath, then exhales slowly, looking you in the eye.
"Sometimes when I wake from my nightmares, I feel like I'm still back there, back with Hydra. I can't shake the chill off, all I can do is breathe, feel the panic rising, my throat tightening. Sleeping on the floor makes me feel safe, the cold and hardness of the floor reminds me of my cell where I was kept, where if I curled up small enough the guards wouldn't be able to hurt me as much. It helps me calm down, gives me space to breathe and think, makes me feel like I never left." His body trembles, each word forced out for his sake and yours.
"But it's cold. I don't like the cold, it always hurts," he whispers, throat clogging up. "It's so cold."
"Then I'll sleep with you right here, you can have my body heat." Your words spill forth without hesitation, mouth moving faster than your brain. "I'll make sure you don't feel cold."
"You don't have to —"
"I want to. I meant it when I said I'll be by your side forever, you're not getting rid of me that easily." You frown. "Even if it means sleeping on the floor."
"I — thank you, doll." He leans into your touch, closing his eyes. "You're warm, so warm."
"Can I hug you?" Your voice is gentle, soft.
"Please." He buries his face into your shoulder, clinging onto you as your arms wrap around him, pulling him towards you and finally closing the gap. Your fingers run through his hair in rhythmic strokes, loving kisses pressed to the top of his head and he slowly starts to drift off.
"Hold on, at least let me get a blanket." You untangle yourself from him, shooting him a look of amusement. He lets out a little whine at the loss of physical contact but allows you to grab a blanket from your shared room, all the while sitting on the floor like a sad puppy.
"There." You throw the blanket at him as you re-enter the living room. It lands on his face, he didn't even make a move to dodge the projectile and you can't help but laugh as it slides off, pooling into a pile on his lap. He shakes his head, waiting for you to settle on the floor before joining you, curling up against your chest. You tug the blanket over the both of you, relieved that it's big enough and press one last kiss to the top of his head.
"Good night, sugar plum." You murmur, feeling him stir slightly.
"Good night doll, and thank you. For everything."
"Right back at you."

Steve had been right. Some days Louis did need something to hug, and this elephant was as good as anything. Louis was having one of the rougher days. The harmonious state of the anxiety free life of a fearless Louis had ended the week after he met with Harry. It ended as abruptly as it had started. It was like pushing a button. Lights out.

8) (But) Baby We’re Everything | Explicit | 117,618 words
Harry and Louis broke up almost four years ago when their career paths took them different directions.

9) Our Endless Numbered Days | Explicit | 120,815 words
“Harry?” whispered Louis, his mouth dry, his nose pressing against the other’s warm skin. “Mh?” Harry’s humming was gentle, his fingers lightly caressing the younger boy’s arm, his chest steadily rising and falling beneath Louis’ cheek. A couple of seconds passed, and Louis looked up at him in the darkness of the cave, barely able to make out the expression on his face. When he tried to inhale deeply, his breath hitched. He struggled to find the words to tell Harry what he was thinking about. Another couple of seconds passed, and Louis listened to the reassuring beating of the prince’s heart beneath his cheek. He couldn’t. “Nothing,” he whispered, his voice weak. I think you’re half of my soul.
10) Streetlights In The Dark Blue | Mature | 120,867 words
Louis Tomlinson is an investigative journalist. He’s spent the better part of his life researching the psyches of serial killers, and publishing articles to provide a deeper understanding into their methodologies.

A letter containing a symbol. One dubbed by a serial killer who’d vanished three years prior. The postage stamp? Bainbridge Island. He’d spent so long peering into the darkness, it should be no surprise to discover that something had been looking back. The island presents a host of mysteries.

Over the span of a year, life gets crazy, frustrating, surprising and most importantly…filled with love.
12) Siren Calls Me Home | Explicit | 133,762 words
Harry’s father had warned him. King Edward of Erendor had whispered his suspicions that Prince Louis of Blackmont was descended from the sirens, monsters from cautionary tales Harry was told as a child. A cruel, cold-hearted, and vicious nature wreathed in a breathtaking exterior, with coy smirks and slow blinks used to bend everyone to his will. His beauty was as well known as his cunning, his greed, and his ruthless grab for power. Time only proved the rumors to be true, and Harry made sure to keep his distance from the prince, never once speaking to him, and doing his best not to even meet his eye. Unfortunately, the ghosts of whispered warnings are powerless when one is up against the very tangible experience of being in Prince Louis’ presence.
13) The Compulsion to Find Love | Teen & Up | 140,138 words
The most prestigious English third-level institution, Candling University, accepts omega students for the first time and Louis Tomlinson applies with bright eyes and brighter ambitions.

14) Prisoner | Explicit | 140,445 words
When Louis Tomlinson heard the jury’s verdict, the world crumbled before his glassy blue eyes. Sentenced to five years in prison for a medical malpractice he did not commit, he was transferred to a maximum security prison. His days were numbered, he knew. Harry Styles, his cellmate and the monarch of the prison. Sadist like no other. The fumes coming out of his mouth were pure, bitter, flaming poison. Louis swallowed, certain it would be the last time he would ever do so. His body convulsed and his legs felt tremulous. He could have peed himself from the fear. “When I asked for a cellmate to have fun with, I didn’t imagine they’d bring me a little lamb.” If God had created Adam, the devil had created Harry.
15) No Hello Just Goodbye | Mature | 142,502 words
Louis had 9 months to try and convince himself out of it, but he knew from the very moment he saw the dreaded 2 lines that he couldn’t raise the baby. Not when the conception took place against his own will. Adoption was the only answer. He had no problems handing over his child nor did he endure any sort of regret. Or did he? 4 years after giving birth Louis sets out to search for his baby but what he finds instead is something he totally didn’t expect…… Love.
16) Where I Burn To Be | Explicit | 143,346 words
There were very few people who managed to get under Louis’ skin as effortlessly as Harry had, and even fewer who had done it in only a day and a half. It was quite an accomplishment, really. They’d only interacted a handful of times and yet Louis had the insatiable desire to slam the locker into that frustratingly well-defined face that never seemed to hold any expressions other than contempt and arrogance. “That’s right. I do own the skies. And you wanna know why?” he sneered. Without his boots on, Louis was a fair bit shorter than Harry, his eyes pretty much level with Harry’s chin and his socked toes bumping into the boots of the other man, close enough that Louis could make out the tiny scar on Harry’s brow and the individual shades of emerald in his irises. He was handsome, but that only made Louis hate him more. Heart thumping heavily against his sternum and his hands balled into fists, Louis lifted his chin defiantly and plastered a coldhearted smirk across his lips. “Because I’m the best goddamn pilot here.”
17) Your Eyes Are Tired But Keep Them Open Cause You Wouldn’t Wanna Miss A Thing | Explicit | 144,281 words
Louis is an omega in an abusive relationship everyone forced him into; he’s miserable until he meets his favorite student’s uncle, Harry, a gentle alpha with a big heart.
18) Give Me A Way To Breathe (If You Can) | Explicit | 152,100 words
“By decree of the Five Tribes of England, all omegas aged eighteen (18) to twenty-five (25) shall be bred annually at the age of eighteen warranted that they have had one (1) fertile heat. During these years, all omegas must remain unmated and fertile in time for their scheduled breeding session. Alphas between the age of sixteen (16) and thirty (30) will be selected based on physical strengths and medically exceptional sperm quality to breed the omegas. All viable children will be given to selected families. No parental rights will be given to the alpha whose sperm is donated or the omega who bears them. Those who do not serve their tribe by this law will face exile.” Louis’ eyes scanned the breeding letter. Written in a beautiful, careful cursive was the name of the alpha who would impregnate him, and it couldn’t have been more pretentious: Harry Styles.
19) Life And Love Finds A Way | Explicit | 165,244 words
Post-apocalyptic world after a plague had taken out more than half of the world’s population. In the midst of the pandemonium caused by so many people passing away, the population that was left had turned greedy and started attacking each other for food and resources now that there weren’t enough people to farm or work essential jobs. After being shot by a looter while he was on patrol, Harry had decided to leave the police department and move away to find somewhere remote to live. What he didn’t expect was for an omega to weasel his way into Harry’s heart.

AU where Louis and Harry used to be more than friends, but everything had to change the day Harry introduces Louis to his new girlfriend.
21) I Thought We Were Forever | Mature | 235,556 words
“I need time alone from you.” Louis’ heart skipped a beat. That he had not seen coming. “From me?” his voice shook. Harry nodded, another tear rolling down his cheek. “I don’t understand, H.” “It’s-” “You want to go on holidays on your own or something?” frowned Louis, so very confused. A long silence settled. “Look, there’s no easy way to say this.” murmured Harry and he looked so in pain. “I like someone else. Like Like like. At least I think I do. I’m not sure. That’s why I need time alone.”
22) Boss Bitch | Explicit | 386,901 words
Harry had always wanted to work for this successful mafia; the mafia that everyone knew, everyone feared. Led by none other than the pahntom “L'eue Courante”, whom everyone knew existed, but had no other clues who this person could be. The only thing known was a high heel the phantom once left. So this person had to be woman, Harry assumend. And man, was he wrong.

Meet Blaze Dugal, Twisted Wonderland's Future A List Actor! (Please no)
(Thank you @moonyasnow for the lovely Blaze art <3)
Blaze is a short tempered second year who is the only merfolk in Savanaclaw. He's working hard to ace his classes and become an actor, though his disciplinary record isn't too clean, and his actual love for acting doesn't seem to be all there.
Some Basic Info:
☆Class: 2D
☆Club: Film Club
☆Favourite subjects: Alchemy, practical magic
☆Homeland: The Coral Sea
☆Species: Half Sunshine Chromis Damselfish merfolk, half royal gramma basslet
☆Height: 168cm
☆Birthday: 19th February
☆Dominant hand: Left
☆Hobbies: Making small potions, collecting and restoring old and/or lost things,
☆Likes: Music, alchemy (not that he'd ever admit it), clouds, looking cool, history,
☆Dislikes: Alchemy (that's what he tells everyone, at least), being told what to do, Finn, Vil, disappointing people, acting, being alone with his thoughts for too long, flying
☆Favourite food: Stuffed crab
☆Least favourite food: Unagi
Personality:
Blaze is short-tempered and an explosive guy who's mean as can be to those around him, though he's all bark and no bite. He'll act tough and taunt others but back off before things get physical, that is is if he hasn't gotten carried away. Blaze is very headstrong and stubborn, and will dig his heels in once he's set his mind on something even if it seems to be to his detriment.
Blaze always makes sure to voice his own opinion even if it is unwanted, but speaks very little of himself outside of a few key facts.
Though Blaze is very dismissive of certain classes and acts like he's too cool for NRC, he works very hard and is surprisingly dedicated to his club and academics. For someone so loud and eager to shove himself into other people's conversations, he actually keeps to himself a lot and stays in his room when he'd not busy with other things. (If he did have friends though he would be very protective of them and eager to please) Think of him like an introvert forced to be an extrovert most of his life.
Despite the tough guy act, Blaze has a desperate need for validation and to prove himself to others. He's always got this sinking feeling he's just no good no matter how hard he tries. This does result in him being a bit of a show off in classes (though what he's showing off doesn't always work out 💀.) He's also very jumpy and can be startled easily.
Around his mother, though, Blaze feels like a completely different person. He gets very quiet and nervous, never saying a word unless directly spoken to, and much more on edge than usual. If you seem him flinch at sudden movements, no you didn't.
When it comes to stuff he has a genuine interest in, he's treats it with a lot of care and will get very defensive if they are insulted (even if he's not involved in the conversation)
Appearance:
Blaze is pale and very thin with bright yellow eyes and lots of freckles. His hair is short, fluffy, and purple with yellow and orange-red streaks. He has a purple, heart-shaped birthmark on his forehead, but it's usually hidden by his hair.
In his mer form, his tail is purple (top half) and yellow (bottom half), with a patch of orange where the two colours meet*. His tailfins are very big and yellow with one thin purple streak on each side, and the tip of each fin has a big black dot. Although he looks mostly like your stereotypical Ariel type mermaid, his skin is flecked with small purple and yellow scales and he has small orange-red streps under his eyes and on his cheeks, which he often tries to cover. Though he doesn't have webbed hands, he has small fins on his forearms that are mostly see-through but slightly tainted with purple.
In his human form, those fins, scales and stripes aren't there, but his birthmark remains.
*His tail basically looks like this:
Important Things To Know:
☆Blaze is actually very skilled at alchemy and genuinely enjoys it. However, he's in denial about it because he doesn't want to think about how much he'd enjoy that as a career
☆Blaze struggles a lot with his self-image due to lingering guilt for some of his reactions, but his mother and the high standards of those around him, which is what led him to doing things like covering his scales and stripes and being careful of his figure
☆Finn is Blaze's #1 target and a person Blaze seems to hate with a passion. He goes out of his way to harass and bully him and is even the cause of the scars on his back. The reason he does so is a mix of wanting to feel better about himself, and a seething jealousy for how Finn embodies everything Blaze was taught is bad and wrong, while still having everything Blaze is yearning for (Love, connections, an actual present parent)
☆Blaze often had to make breakfast, lunch, or dinner for himself since his mom was either absent, asleep or uhh not in the state for making food. Because of that, he has a surprising knack for putting together meals from very little, and he will make food for people likes (though it's more to prove he's worth something than a gesture of affection)
Blaze's Family:
Blaze is raised by a single mother, and he's got no idea who his other parent could be. He does have some extended family, but he doesn't see them a lot outside of maybe visiting his cousins (one of whom is named Max, created by @yuizenihaswriten)
Backstory:
Blaze grew up in the Coral Sea, in one of the nicer areas of Atlantica. However his life isn't all that grand. His mother is a sort of known local actress who projects heavily onto him and wants him to form a "blazing" path to fame as an actor. While she wallows in a failed career and shattered dreams, she's sending Blaze to acting and drama classes classes, introducing him to her higher ups, constantly pointing to Vil Schoenheit as a "role model", ensuring he understands the importance of his looks and demeanour, and shaping his path to achieve what she never did.
Blaze doesn't know who his other parent is, but he does know they weren't like his mother, and that because of them he has these fins where he doesn't want them and these patches of scales and stripes marring his skin where they shouldn't be, and be resents them for it. He should be beautiful, a wonder to look at, not stuck with... that. He tries hard to cover them or use cloaking magic (which doesn't last very long), and he tries harder to maintain a certain figure (though neither he nor his mother are ever happy with it)
Blaze's mother also struggles with alcoholism, and because of that she is often either absent or not in the state to look after Blaze, leaving him to try and look after himself from a pretty young age, and help her too when she's hungover. Blaze can handle tough environments and navigate through uncertain and possibly violent ones, so he handles being in Savanaclaw quite well.
She is, unfortunately, also physically and emotionally abusive to him, though it isn't a result of the alcohol and more of a pre existing problem that was made worse by it. Blaze is incredibly afraid of her and will do whatever he can to keep her happy and more importantly, prevent her from being mad at him. It's hard to predict her actions or reactions though, so when she's home the atmosphere is very tense and fearful.
But despite his eagerness to please his mother, he doesn't like acting at all and... isn't very good at it either. However, he's in a similar position as Riddle, where he truly cannot concieve any other future besides the one set for him. He hates every second he spends acting, but he doesn't want to be a failure or make his mother angry. So, apart from his few hobbies, he tries to avoid engaging in or thinking too hard about things that may draw his interests in a different career direction, not even after he developed magic and eventually went to NRC. What's the point, if that's not what he's going to do anyways?
Unfortunately for Blaze, NRC is where he discovered alchemy and that he not only enjoyed it, but was actually quite talented at it and caught on quickly. He will tell others it's his most hated class, but in reality he's trying not to think about how he's had ten times more fun doing that than he ever has acting, or how the science club always seemed so much more intriguing than the film club.
Blaze doesn't hate his mother, but he is angry at how he is treated (even if he does think he deserves some of it) and how his future isn't what he wants or even likes, and this is what makes him lash out at school and demand to be heard. (He's actually quite similar to Morrigan) He resents others like Finn, who seem so much happier than he is and don't seem to dread the future like he does, who seem so happy as they are and don't hate their body like he does.
Blaze is only in his second year at NRC, so there's still more that could happen to him. He doesn't have any friends (yet) but he's certainly having his fair share of um- banter? with @distant-velleity 's Yuhua. There will be more to come as I continue to develop him.
Some Fun Facts/Extra Info:
☆Blaze likes to find old and abandoned things and restore them. He's surprisingly good at fixing things.
☆Blaze hates Vil due to his mother constantly comparing the two of them as he grew up. In Blaze's eyes, he's both an unreachable idol that seems to get all his mother's love, and some stuck up prick who's had everything handed to him on a silver platter (including natural talent he never had to work for) and thinks he's so much better than everyone else because of it. This causes many problems during film club meetings and it's a miracle Blaze hasn't been kicked out yet
☆Blazes enjoys looking at clouds and finding shapes in them, though he's very embarrassed every time he does and always looks around in case someone saw
☆Blaze finds history pretty interesting and, though not the history taught at NRC. That bores him to death

MORE FIC RECOMMENDATIONS DUDE???
DUDE so sorry i kept u waiting for a while XDD here they aree make sure to give them some love <3
also here's part 1 and part 2 of my fic recs as well :p
one of many dreams by sunlitlemonade
On the headstone is a boy.
absolute poetry that sun cooked up based on my drawing?? ToT read it right neowww!!!! <33
Big Brother Big Brother by bloggerspam
“Damian, this is…Robin.” Mother falters over the name, a rare occasion. She looks unsure, which makes him scrutinize the teen harder, “They have just about finished their…training.” Robin looks towards Mother, reacting to the name by getting up and sloping over. They seem to toddle, as if unused to their own limbs, before stopping next to Damian. Robin crouches, staring at Damian with vacant eyes, searching, too big hands reaching over. One gently prods at his neck, where the bruises are no doubt now surfacing. The other cradles his still assuredly small hands, turning them this way and that to inspect the cracked up nails. Robin grunts, scooping Damian up into his arms despite his protests. The teen is strong, holding him tightly and looking at Mother with some kind of expression that causes her to heave a heavy sigh. “Let us get you cleaned up, Habibi. It seems that you will be seeing more of Robin in the future.” Or: I explore the brotherly relationship between Damian and Jason, tracing all the way back to their days at the LoA. Damian POV, Mute+Pre-pit!Jason.
cantt believe this beautiful fic was inspired by my art!! absolutely wonderful jason&damian and talia right here!!!!
Sickening Succession by Geeves
The stars can be so blinding When you get tired of fighting You know the one you can look to ----- Two scenes where they can't help but push themselves too hard. Two different moments in time and in life where they question if they're loved. Two similar situations that reflect each other like mirrors as their bodies buckle under the weight they're holding. Two brothers being there for the other.
very sick dick and robin jason (and a little bit bruce) lovee this sm i love the way geeves writes them always :)
door, opening by cowboysorceror
It’s barely audible, but he knows what he heard. A short, four-note whistle, chirping down – E, C#, then jumping up to A, F#, a little trill on the finish. He waits a moment, head turned slightly towards the dim shapes of storage containers between him and the ramp, eyes straining against the blackness. Long, stretching seconds. There it is again. His gloved hand, prickling with cold, closes into a fist. It’s a wood thrush. A small North American songbird that doesn’t sing at night, doesn’t live in the city. He knows what it means. It means hold, steady, not yet. It means wait for me, I’m behind you.
I only read the first chapter so far but mindd blown with the writing,,love love loved it. i think its batfam but mostly focusing on dick and jason
No Complaints by couldyoublameme
“Hood?” There’s a dead body on the floor. The boy’s throat is bared open, too many slashes to justify it as impersonal. He has Tim's face, mouth parted in a silently deafening scream, eyes blue and scared and unseeing. Jason squeezes his eyes shut, lets out a breath, and looks away. It’s not real, he repeats to himself. It’s Fear Toxin. It's Crane. It’s something that could’ve happened but didn’t. It's not real, it’s not real, it’s not real. -- Jason gets hit with fear toxin. His older brother is there, for better or for worse.
same writer!! really really good, mind the tags
Miscommunications and Misnomers by JouskaAndVellichor
Buzzing. He shouldn’t be out here, with the buzzing in his veins. He’d not even wanted to go out tonight, couldn’t trust himself to keep his temper on a leash and not hurt someone who didn’t need to be. Fuck Two-Face, for getting his hands on the Man-Bat serum some-fucking-how and deciding to break out and use it tonight. Jason's choices catch up to him, as his family do their best while kept in the dark.
jason and the lazarus healingg!!! loved this, but mind the tags
Stick the Landing by pinstripedJackalope
Roy and Jason are in Belle Reve for a mission when things go fantastically sideways. It's pretty hard to catch a bat off guard, but hey, there's nothing a little appendicitis can't ruin ;)
had me going crazyyy such great jason&roy andd some alfred sprinkled in the end suchhh a good read!!
between a rock and a high place by LadyHaleth
"Let him go!" Nightwing snarls through the com, voice raw and strained. Jason laughs. The modulator of his helmet crackles, and the sound of his laughter echoes cold and cruel. "Are you sure you want me to do that?" During an unplanned and unsupervised encounter with the Red Hood, Tim takes an (also unplanned) dive off the side of a building. As Tim's life hangs by a thread, Red Hood taunts Batman and Nightwing, threatening to drop him. But does he really mean it? Because for someone threatening to let go, Jason's grip is awfully tight.
i wrote down "Tim is here and jason is being an ass XD" to this i guess its pretty accurate. and dick&jason as well :')
Covers by stealthdisaster
Prompt 17: Only One Bed
little then&now fic with dick and jason with suchh great fluff to melt u :')
carry your heart by Aelig
"Dick carefully looks over at Jason, as his concentrated face as the hero confronts the villain on the screen, as his food halfway to his mouth but already forgotten. He looks terribly young, like this - all his thirteen years of life and a relaxed posture he’s still not used to have. Dick kind of wants to ruffle his hair or hugs him casually, like he does with the Titans; but he and Jason still aren’t close enough for that, he thinks. They just start hanging out together, outside of some messages by phone and video calls, and that without counting the two-something patrol they did together. But Dick is already sure of one thing - he really, really likes Jason. He’s a cute kid, full of curiosity and bright intelligence, sharp words and amazed eyes. Dick decided since the beginning that Jason will be his little brother, but it’s more say than done. But now - now, Dick thinks it will be easy to love Jason and see him as his family. He likes the idea even more, too, now that he learns to know Jason." OR: Dick, Jason, and two movie nights at two different point of time.
fluff!!!! safe and warm <3
There You Are by calamityin
Jason Todd is not an idiot and he makes good choices. Most of the time. But occasionally he doesn't and he has to rely on others to get him out of things. This would be manageable if he could just remember to let people help him. And remember they need to know he needs help first.
this one is so,, :(( mind the tags
Fail Safe by Goldmonger
“All good?” asked Jason, who was bouncing in front of him, eagerly watching Clark scrutinise his own body. He looked spooky, all bathed in red light, but Clark had been in photography darkrooms before. This was hardly any different. “All good,” Clark said, smiling. “Just… new.” “Do you feel all weak?” Clark laughed uneasily. “Do you?”
adorable robin jason and clark!!
and lastly guest appearence from wally but such a nice fic <3
déjà vu by Muddell
For a second, it’s déjà vu. The sight of the small, dark-haired, colorful blur that flips through the air. Then, Wally sees the differences. The murderous glare on the kid's face. The variations in his costume, how his hair sits. The knee-jerk expectation of Dick Grayson is replaced by Dick Grayson’s brother. Wally is staring at Damian Wayne. Who just crawled—dressed as Robin, with his hands bound behind his back, blood streaming from a cut on his forehead—free of a van.

Clear Regrets
Nightwing stood in the middle of an abandoned warehouse, the bodies of people surrounding him. Blood spattered across the ground and walls, painting the space in an eerie deep red. He could hear the groaning and cries of those who still clung to consciousness, but there was nothing he could do. He had already called the authorities and ambulances.
He looked at the carnage around him and could only feel a cold fear settle in his bones.
This was his fault.
If he had known…if he had known.
He never would have let this happen.
He regretted his wish.
He took it back.
But you can’t change the past.
He heard an explosion off in the distance and quickly left the warehouse. If he could find them then maybe he could put a stop to all this madness. Limit the damage at the very least.
Nightwing took to the skies, following the trail of blood and devastation.
By the time he finally caught up with his targets he had been moving non stop for the past two hours. He was shaking from stress and exhaustion. He looked over at the building across from him and could make out two silhouettes. They looked out over the city which was for once dead silent. It felt like the whole of Gotham was holding its breath in fear. Like any noise, any sudden movement would bring about disaster and ruin.
Nightwing quickly closed the space between himself and the duo, careful not to make a sound. If he was noticed they would escape again, and he wasn’t sure if he’d be able to catch up to them a second time.
With the new closer proximity he could hear them.
“Done! What’s the time?” The taller one asked.
“2 hours 59 minutes and 18 seconds.” A child’s voice answered.
The taller of the pair threw their hands into the air, “Yes, we did it! We cleared Gotham in under 3 hours!”
The smaller one looked at his partner, “Perhaps we should pay a visit to Metropolis? Unfamiliar territory could pose a worthy challenge.”
“Nice thinking Baby Bat.”
Despite having their backs to him, Nightwing could almost see the manic grins on both of their faces.
Yes, he regretted ever trying to get Tim Drake and Damian Wayne to get along.
At this rate the world wouldn’t survive their friendship.

Okay, so I’ve got 3 fics sitting around gathering virtual dust, and I want to post them on AO3 (despite the fact they're basically garbage) but I can’t decide which one deserves to go first. They’re all fully written, but I’m too indecisive, so I’m making you all choose for me. Here’s the lineup:
1. Wonderwall
Regulus gets kicked out by his lovely (sarcasm) parents and shows up at Sirius and Remus’s place with nowhere else to go. Awkward timing, because Remus had this whole romantic ski trip to the Swiss Alps planned where he was gonna propose to Sirius. But hey, family drama waits for no one, so Remus invites Regulus to join them in an attempt to fix things between the Black brothers. Meanwhile, James is working at a resort owned by his parents in the Alps (because why not), and he and Regulus cross paths. Cue romance, angst, and lots of snow.
Also, fun fact: I wrote this whole thing in one weekend after I twisted my ankle trying to ski in Jackson Hole last December (thanks to my roommate) It’s a longfic. It’s a mess. I love it.
2. While You Were Sleeping
Yes, it’s exactly what it sounds like—a While You Were Sleeping AU. Regulus works in the Ministry Archives, silently pining over Auror James Potter, who doesn’t even know he exists. One day, Regulus saves James from what could’ve been a tragic accident, and somehow, everyone ends up thinking he’s engaged to James. Oh, and James? He’s in a coma. While hanging around James’s family and friends, Regulus ends up falling in love with the real James he gets to know (without actually talking to him, oops). Everything’s sweet until James wakes up.
Expect misunderstandings, cute moments and possibly second hand embarrassment.
3. A Bed by Any Other Name
Regulus has hypercalcemia, his body’s basically giving up on him, and surgery is his only hope. Problem? He needs someone to look after him until then. His parents are conveniently in France, so guess where he ends up—Sirius’s house. Sirius is an artist married to Remus, a college professor. Regulus might have a tiny crush on Remus, but things really get interesting when he meets James Potter, a Literature professor who’s obsessed with Marcel Proust and has a thing for over-the-top romantic gestures.
This fic is about illness, recovery, love, and a whole lot of Marcel Proust out of context. You're welcome.

✧ ─ ⌑ word count: 2.8 k in total
they would find you not sleeping by an accident, and would put you back to sleep themselves — yelan, xiao
yelan
the night was cool and still, the faint hum of liyue harbour in the distance mingled with the gentle rustle of leaves in the breeze. you leaned against the balcony railing of your room, gazing out at the twinkling lights of the city below. sleep had eluded you tonight, your mind restless despite the hour.
the sound of a faint, almost imperceptible footstep behind you broke the silence. you whirled around, your heart leaping to your throat, only to see a familiar figure emerge from the shadows.
"yelan?" you blurted out, your voice a mixture of surprise and confusion. "what are you doing here?" she crossed her arms, one brow arched in a way that was both amused and mildly reproachful. "'no,'" she countered softly, her tone sharp yet playful. "what are you doing here?"
for a moment, you were at a loss for words. "i... couldn't sleep," you finally admitted, gesturing vaguely at the cityscape. "i thought some fresh air might help clear my head." yelan stepped closer, her movements as fluid and deliberate as ever, still dressed in her usual attire - dark and smooth, perfect for blending into the night - but her expression was softer than usual.
"you know," she said, her voice low and tinged with concern, "roaming around at this hour isn't exactly the best way to deal with insomnia, especially on a balcony where you could catch a cold." you rolled your eyes slightly and leaned back against the railing. "i wasn't exactly 'roaming', yelan. and besides, what are the odds of you showing up here of all places? were you spying on me or something?"
she grinned and tilted her head. "i wasn't spying, no. but let's just say i have my ways of knowing when someone i care about is up to something they shouldn't be.” even though her words made you feel a little warmer out in this cold night, you couldn't help but tease her back. "so, what, you decided to come and give me a lecture about bedtime?"
yelan chuckled, the sound deep and melodic. "something like that. though," she added, her eyes narrowing slightly, "i didn't expect to find you brooding out here in the cold. what's on your mind?"
you hesitated, the weight of her attention making you feel both comforted and exposed. "just... couldn't stop thinking about things. nothing specific, really. it's like my brain refuses to turn off."
she nodded thoughtfully, moving closer until she was standing next to you. "i know the feeling," she said softly, her voice losing its teasing edge. "but staying up all night won't help. trust me." you turned to look at her, her face lit by the moonlight, her sharp, confident demeanour seeming softer for the moment, her usual air of mystery replaced by genuine concern.
"i suppose you're right," you murmured, your voice barely audible.
"i usually am," she said, smirking again, though it lacked her usual sharpness, and then, without warning, she reached out and took your hand, her grip firm yet gentle. "come. let's get you back into bed."
you blinked, startled by the sudden contact. "you're going to put me to bed now?"
"someone has to," she quipped, her grin widening. "and you obviously can't be trusted to do it yourself."
despite her playful tone, there was something undeniably tender about the way she led you back to your room, not letting go of your hand until you were sitting on the edge of your bed, her presence somehow both reassuring and commanding.
as you settled under the covers, she pulled a chair close to the bed and sat down, her gaze steady and unwavering. "now close your eyes," she said, her voice softer than before.
"you're staying?" you asked, surprised. "just until you fall asleep," she replied, leaning back in the chair with a faint smile. "i have to make sure you don't sneak back out on the balcony."
you couldn't help but smile at her persistence, your heart swelling with affection for the woman who could so easily command a room - or your restless mind - with just a few words.
"thank you, yelan," you murmured, your eyes growing heavy under her watchful gaze.
"anytime," she replied softly, and for the first time that night, you felt truly at ease.
her presence was so comforting that it wasn't long before your eyes began to close uncontrollably and yelan's silhouette began to blur.
"don't forget to close the door," was the only thing you whispered to your friend, half asleep. the little smirk on her face went unnoticed, unlike the wide-open door that was the first thing you saw in the morning with a runny nose.
hey, after all, they say it's better to sleep in a cold room, right?
xiao
the air was crisp on the terrace of the wangshu inn, the faint hum of nocturnal creatures filling the silence of the night. the inn was quiet, its usual bustle replaced by the stillness that only comes in the early hours. you sat on the edge of the terrace, your legs dangling over the side as you gazed out at the moonlit expanse of the dihua marsh.
the night had always felt peaceful to you, a time to think and breathe without the weight of the day pressing down on you. but tonight, that peace eluded you. your thoughts were restless, keeping you from the sleep you so desperately needed.
a faint gust of wind blew past you, and a familiar presence settled behind you, and you didn't need to turn to know who it was.
"xiao," you said softly, your voice carrying easily in the still night.
"what are you doing here?" his voice came, sharp but tinged with concern. you turned to see him standing a few paces away, his golden eyes fixed on you with that intense gaze he always seemed to carry.
you sighed and turned back to the view of the marsh. "i couldn't sleep, i don't know why exactly," you sighed, "i guess it's just a human thing."
xiao's footsteps were almost silent as he approached, stopping just behind you. he remained quiet for a moment, the silence stretching between you. then his voice came again, softer this time. "the night is not meant for mortals to linger, it is when dangers arise, even here."
you glanced over your shoulder at him, a small smile tugging at your lips. "i think I'll be fine with the mighty conqueror of demons around."
he frowned, clearly unimpressed by your attempt at humour. "i’m serious," he said, his tone firm but lacking his usual edge. "your body needs rest. staying awake like this is... unwise."
you sighed again, your shoulders slumping slightly. "i know, but i just can't. it's like the more i try, the harder it gets."
xiao's frown deepened, but instead of reacting, he came closer, lowering himself to sit beside you on the edge of the terrace. his presence was grounding, a quiet strength that seemed to calm your racing thoughts.
"mortals and their endless worries," he murmured, almost to himself. "you carry so much, even when you don't need to."
you looked at him, surprised at the softness in his tone. "it's not like i can help it," you admitted. "it's just... life, i guess."
he was silent for a moment, his gaze fixed on the marsh below, then he spoke again, his voice low and almost hesitant. "if it helps... you're not alone. even if i'm not around, i'm watching."
the weight of his words settled over you, a warmth blooming in your chest. xiao was not one to offer comfort lightly, and his presence alone spoke volumes.
"thank you, xiao," you said softly, leaning a little closer to him. he turned his head to look at you, his golden eyes catching the moonlight. for a moment he said nothing, but the intensity of his gaze made your heart skip a beat.
"come," he said finally, standing up and offering you his hand. "you need the rest." you hesitated, glancing at the railing as if debating whether to stay. but the gentle insistence in his eyes left little room for argument. you took his hand, his grip firm and steady as he helped you to your feet.
back in your room, xiao lingered by the window, his back to you as you settled into bed. his presence was a silent reassurance that you weren't alone. "will you stay?" you asked softly, the words slipping out before you could question them.
he turned to look at you, his expression unreadable, and for a moment you thought he might refuse, but then he gave a small nod. "i'll stay until you sleep."
you smiled and closed your eyes as the sounds of the night filled the room, and as sleep finally claimed you, you felt safe, knowing that he was there, watching over you like the ever-dedicated guardian he was.
they would stay up with you for a little longer — ganyu, ayato
ganyu
the soft glow of a lantern illuminated the desk in your study, casting flickering shadows across the neatly stacked papers and open books. the night was deep, its silence broken only by the occasional rustle of the wind against the windows. you leaned over your work, exhaustion tugging at your eyelids, but unable to outweigh the sheer volume of tasks that still demanded your attention.
just as you reached for your quill again, the faint sound of footsteps caught your attention. turning towards the doorway, you found ganyu standing there, her soft blue hair illuminated by the dim light. she looked at you with a mixture of surprise and concern.
"you're still awake?" she asked quietly, stepping into the room.
you smiled, trying to sound more awake than you felt. "i could say the same about you."
she chuckled softly, closing the distance between you. "you know, i tend to overwork myself sometimes, but you... i didn't expect to find you burning the midnight oil."
"i have a lot to finish," you admitted, gesturing to the scattered papers on the desk. "i thought i could get it all done before tomorrow, but... well, here i am."
ganyu's eyes swept over the desk, taking in the clutter with a practiced eye. her expression softened, and she reached out to place a hand on your shoulder. "you've been working too hard, you should rest.”
"i know," you said with a sigh. "but if i don't finish this tonight, i'll be even further behind tomorrow. i'll sleep when i'm done, i promise."
her lips pressed into a thin line, her concern evident, and then, after a moment, she nodded, though her hand remained on your shoulder. "if you're determined to finish this tonight," she said gently, "then let me help you."
you blinked, startled. "no, you don't have to..."
"but i want to," she interrupted, her voice firm yet kind. "i know what it's like to feel overwhelmed by work. sometimes it's easier if someone is there to share the burden."
her words fell like a warm blanket over you, and for a moment all you could do was stare at her. ganyu's dedication had always been one of the things you admired most about her, but her willingness to extend that dedication to you - to stay up late and help you simply because she cared - made your chest tighten with affection.
"then thank you, ganyu," you said quietly.
she offered you a small smile, one that carried more warmth than the entire room. "where should i start?"
you quickly organized the papers, explaining what needed to be done. ganyu took a seat beside you, her delicate fingers moving deftly as she worked through the tasks. her presence was calming, her quiet focus making it easier for you to concentrate.
for a while, the two of you worked in comfortable silence, the only sounds being the scratching of pens on paper and the occasional shuffling of documents. you glanced at her every now and then, marveling at how serene she looked even in the midst of tedious work.
finally, you leaned back in your chair and stretched your arms over your head. "i think that's the last of it," you said with a tired but satisfied sigh.
ganyu looked up from her own pile of papers, a hint of relief in her expression. "i’m glad we could finish it together," she said quietly, putting down her pen.
you smiled at her, your exhaustion momentarily forgotten. "i don't know what i’d do without you."
a faint blush rose to her cheeks and she looked away shyly. "i haven't done much," she murmured.
"you've done more than enough," you insisted, reaching out to take her hand. "you stayed with me when you didn't have to. that means everything to me.”
she hesitated for a moment, then squeezed your hand gently, her eyes meeting yours. "you mean a lot to me," she said, her voice barely above a whisper. "i just want to make sure you take care of yourself."
your heart swelled at her words, and you gave her hand a reassuring squeeze. "i'll try. as long as you promise to do the same."
she smiled, the kind of smile that lit up her whole face, and nodded. "i promise."
as the first rays of dawn began to creep through the window, you and ganyu made your way to the bed, exhaustion finally catching up to both of you. she stayed close, her warmth a comforting presence as you drifted off to sleep. and in that quiet moment, with her by your side, you knew you wouldn't trade it for anything in the world.
ayato
the inkwell was nearly empty, and the paper under your hand was beginning to blur from the strain in your tired eyes. the silence of the night wrapped around you like a heavy cloak, broken only by the occasional rustling of papers or the faint scratching of your pen. you knew you should be in bed, but there was so much to do, and the hours slipped away before you realized how late it was.
you didn't hear ayato's footsteps at first. his movements were as graceful and quiet as ever, the only warning of his presence being the soft rustle of his robes as he approached. you looked up, startled, to see his gentle smile framed by the warm light of the lantern he carried.
"you are still awake," he said softly, his tone a mixture of curiosity and concern. "what could require so much of your attention at this hour?"
you sighed, putting down the quill and rubbing at your temples. "there's just too much to do, ayato. i couldn't sleep knowing this was unfinished."
his eyes flickered to the papers spread across the desk, then back to you. his smile didn't falter, but there was a knowing look in his eyes that made you feel both cared for and slightly scolded. "and i thought i was the workaholic in this relationship," he teased lightly.
you gave him a tired laugh, and his expression softened further. without another word, he put down the lantern and pulled up a chair beside you. "then i’ll help you," he said simply, taking one of the documents from the pile.
"ayato, you don't have to..."
"i insist," he interrupted smoothly, his tone leaving no room for argument. "if you're determined to stay awake, i'll make sure you don't have to shoulder this alone. besides," he added with a playful touch, "i’m quite efficient, you know."
and he was! as you worked, ayato's sharp mind and quick hands proved invaluable, easing your burden more than you thought possible. but more than his help, it was his presence that soothed you - the soft hum of his voice as he made the occasional comment, the comforting weight of his shoulder brushing yours as he leaned over to hand you something.
time seemed to pass differently with him there, and before you knew it, the last of the work was done. you leaned back in your chair, exhaustion settling in, but the relief was palpable.
ayato looked at you, his smile tinged with satisfaction. "there, you see? together we can do anything.”
you laughed softly and shook your head. "thank you, ayato. really."
he stood and offered you his hand with a flourish. "my pleasure. but now, my dear, there is one more task we must complete tonight."
you raised an eyebrow and took his hand. "and what's that?"
"to make sure you get the rest you deserve," he said, his voice warm as he led you to the bed.
he pulled back the covers for you, waiting until you were comfortably tucked in before sliding in next to you, his arm wrapped around your waist, pulling you close. "next time, let me know if you're overwhelmed," he murmured, his lips brushing against your forehead. "i’d rather spend the night by your side than let you face it alone."
you nodded sleepily, the weight of his words and the warmth of his embrace lulling you into a peaceful haze. with ayato holding you close, sleep came easily, and you drifted off with the soft hum of his voice still echoing in your mind.

You love me? // Liam Mairi x f!OC
So I read the „Fourth Wing”. Yup. I’m officially lost, but I can’t decide who to fall for - Xaden or Liam. Until I figure this out, here is a little piece for all you Liam lovers (I still can’t forgive how anyone could kill such a wonderful character, straight up cruel!)
A little reminder - English is not my first language so please, have mercy.
Enjoy <3
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There was a reason why Dalya Aetos was one of the most anticipated cadets in the Rider’s Quadrant of Basgiath War College. Despite her brother already being a squad leader in the Flame Section, it was Dalya who everybody considered the jewel of the Aetos family. Even colonel Aetos himself prised himself on his second born. He was proud of his son, but Dain never truly understood the meaning of the lessons his father tried to teach. Instead, Dalya listened carefully, minding every word he has ever said to her. Maybe that’s how she got into general Sorrengail’s favour so quickly. Violet’s mother always appreciated Aetos’s help and advice, but upon meeting Dalya at the age of eleven, she saw true potential in the colonel’s daughter.
No wonder that when it came to Conscription Day, Dalya went straight for the deadly path through the bridge onto the Parapet and into the Rider’s Quadrant. Before making her choice her father tried to convince her to choose healers, as she would be safer there than risking her life on dragonback if she was lucky enough to live through training, the Gauntlet and finally the Threshing. To his disappointment, Dalya chose riders and against her father wishes became a formidable cadet under Xaden Riorson’s command. That’s where she met general Sorrengail’s daughter, Violet and a charming young man by the name Liam Mairi. Befriending Violet was the first good choice she made while studying in the rider’s quadrant. Getting close and creating a bond with Liam was even better.
Eventually, Dalya was chosen by a navy-blue daggertail dragon by the name Yvraeth. If it wasn’t for the fact that Violet got chosen by not one, but two dragons, Dalya would have been the main fenomenon as it was known far and wide that blue dragons do not attach to humans, Xaden and Sgaeyl being the only known exception. And so the training has begun. Flying was the first thing the newly chosen riders need to master, seeing as they would spend the majority of their time in the College on dragonback. When everybody chose to follow the guidelines of the bare minimum of training, Dalya wanted more. She put aside all the drama her brother provided, seeing as he could not decide what he wanted to do with his feelings for Violet and his hate for Xaden, and instead chose to spend as much time in the air as her body allowed her. And she wasn’t alone.
- It would be nice if you could keep up, Liam. Yvraeth won’t wait forever - shouted Dalya, turning back to look at her friend atop the red dragon’s back.
- Not my fault you were chosen by the fastest dragon in the Continent - screamed Liam, a little annoyed but still happy he got to spend time with his favourite person. Dalya laughed joyfully, holding onto Yvraeth’s back.
Why don’t we show them what real speed means?
I knew I chose you for a reason, Starling.
Yvraeth sped up, leaving Liam and Deigh even further behind. Both her and her dragon laughed as they saw how the red daggertail struggled to follow them. Even though she really liked Liam, Dalya enjoyed showing off Yvraeth’s speed and annoying her friends striking through the sky.
Yes, Dalya really liked Liam. Although a more appropriate way to express how she felt about him would be to say that she was falling for him. How could she not? He was not only kind and a true gentleman, not to mention his broad shoulders and gorgeous face, he was also the most genuine and caring person she has ever met. Dalya never really fell for anyone ever since that one time she chose to give somebody her heart only to have it broken into pieces. Typical teenage drama. A girl falls for a boy but he chooses to betray her and choose another. That’s what happened with Dalya and a boy from her hometown, Weston. From that moment she promised herself she would guard her heart and keep it shut until she met someone who could take care of it and take care of her. Day after day Liam was proving he could be that someone but still, it was a risk Dalya wasn’t sure she was willing to take.
But one day, something changed.
It was a training day like any other. All the riders were getting paired up and sparring on the mats. Nothing unusual. Until professor Emetterio shouted her name with someone she would rather not fight on her own.
- Dalya and Garrick, let’s go!
Following professor’s command Dalya stepped onto the mat as Garrick followed her steps. He was a third year and a section leader. That was a warning in itself. Even though they were on rather good terms, she knew he was a formidable opponent and friends or not, he would give his best.
- Promise it won’t hurt, Aetos. At least not too bad - laughed Garrick, ridding himself of his shirt.
- Just don’t pull your punches - Dalya replied playfully, getting into her stance.
- Ready? Fight!
The second professor Emetterio shouted out, Garrick went full offense. He threw himself forward, aiming his fist towards Dalya’s right side. Being much quicker than the well built third year rider she used her speed and agility to her advantage. Swiftly she avoided his attacks but she couldn’t dance around him forever. Her feet were quick, her arms even moreso as she made her move tripping Garrick over his own legs. The second he fell on the mat, he grabbed her leg, brining her down with him and under his body. Being at the clear disatvantage, Dalya rolled herself from his grasp, kicking his left side and getting back on her feet.
- Nice touch. Somebody’s been practicing - said Garrick, wiping his hands on his pants and smiling devilishly at Dalya. She simply smiled back, ready for yet another attack.
They began circling each other when she chose to launch herself at his shoulders, jumping over his head so that he would collapse. That was the exact moment when Liam chose to approach their mat and got to witness her attack. Only it was not as effective as Dalya had planned. Garrick quickly caught her hips and swung her body slamming her on the mat. Soon after he went for a punch into her ribs, but she rolled away just in time. Getting on her feet crouching she swung her left leg, tripping him once again and jumping on top of him once again, this time keeping on foot on his bicep, while the other was bent next to his face. If they weren’t fighting, the position they found themselves in would be rather suggestive and Liam was not happy about it. While he wondered whether there was anything going on between Dalya and the handsome section leader, the fight continued. Dalya thrived in her small victory, but her success was short-lived. Garrick threw her over his shoulder, slamming her side into the mat with a quiet whimper from her. She felt on of her ribs crack but shoes to ignore the pain. Liam winced seeing her pain but remained still, waiting for the fight to be over. Garrick used the moment of weakness and got on top of Dalya’s body, pushing his forearm into her neck while straddling her hips.
- Surrender?
Dalya tried to find her voice but the probably broken rib and Garrick’s elbow on her throat made it difficult to speak. She almost croaked out a word when someone spoke out.
- That’s enough!
Turning her head slightly she saw Liam walking onto the mat and almost throwing Garrick off of her in a somewhat violent manner. The section leader jumped away, looking surprised at the blonde rider, but Liam paid no attention to him. Gently he kneeled next to Dalya, looked her in the eyes and hooked his arms beneath her knees and her back.
- This is gonna hurt, love.
Before she could answer, Liam stood up carrying her in his arms like she weighed nothing and walked out of the training hall without a word. Everyone went silent with their eyes wide open except for Garrick and the wing leader who stood in the shadows, watching from distance. His lips formed into a sort of smile as he watched his friend walk out the door.
Finally, little brother. Took you long enough.
Look who’s talking, hummed Sgaeyl in his head, turning his head to Violet, who was about to enter the mat with Rhiannon as her sparring partner. Xaden just shook his head and focused on the rest of the sparring riders.
Shut up, Sgaeyl.
Meanwhile Liam carried Dalya out of the training hall and followed the path that led to the infirmary. Dalya, seeing the direction they were heading in, shuffled in his arms in protest.
- Not the infirmary, Liam. Please, I’m fine. It’s nothing, really.
The blonde looked at her suspiciously but seeing the pleading in her golden eyes he huffed in defeat and changed his course, walking up to his room instead.
- Fine, but you’re gonna let me take a look at you. I can bet a lot of money that you have a nasty bruise on your ribs and I think I heard one crack.
Dalya remained silent, knowing he was almost one hundred percent right but she chose not to admit it out loud. Instead, she enjoyed the closeness of his body and the smell that she had awakes found intoxicating whenever he was near. She nuzzled her face into his chest and remained quiet until they reached his bedroom. With the doors closed behind them, Liam laid Dalya on his bed so that she could sit propped on the headboard. Kneeling next to his bed he looked up at the girl and waited.
- Shirt up - he demanded, looking at her intensely.
Her eyes widened as she stared at him in shock, raising her eyebrow.
- And how about a „please”, nurse Mairi? - asked Dalya teasingly, smirking at the boy before her.
She half expected him to laugh if only a little but his face remained serious as he stared at her with and unreadable emotion painted in his eyes.
- I’m not kidding, Lya. Shirt up or do I have to do it myself?
- Geez, don’t be so serious, Liam. I’ll do it, calm down.
- I can’t exactly be calm when I just saw you get slammed on the floor like a puppet. Sorry Dalya but I don’t take pleasure in seeing you get hurt. What if you had gotten it worse? Did you even think about it?
Dalya was at a loss for words. She was looking at Liam as if she saw him for the first time. He was down right flushed and his eyes gleamed with what looked almost like fear. Fear for her life. With a small wince Dalya sat up, bringing her hand under his chin and forcing him to look at her.
- Liam, this is not the first time I’ve been sparring on the mat. This has never been a problem before. Why does matter to you now?
- It doesn’t matter - Liam shrugged her hand off his chin, turning his head away, but she wasn’t gonna give up without an answer. With a little more strength she grabbed his face in her palms and turned his head back, looking into his blue eyes with determination.
What has gotten into you? I’m not a porcelain doll. I know you may confuse me with Violet but I don’t understand why make a scene now. You don’t patronize her like that but with me it’s suddenly a big deal I got a little bruised. What is that about?
- Well, I’m not in love with Violet so maybe that!
Yes! You finally said it, good job Liam! shouted Deigh in his rider’s head, his voice laced with so much joy he could light up the night.
Deigh, I’m kinda having a critical moment here. A little privacy, please.
You got it.
That was just about enough to shut Dalya up for a few good moments. The girl stared at Liam with her eyes wide open almost as if she saw a ghost. Her hands were still on his cheeks, hold his face gently as they stared at one another in silence. Liam’s eyes were filled with emotions and fury and frustration all at once for Dalya to see. He knew he was risking their friendship but that was the problem. Friendship wasn’t enough for him. As gently as he could he brought his hands to grab Dalya’s wrists and he kissed each of them lightly, almost like a feather touch, still looking into her golden orbs. She couldn’t utter a word staying completely still, almost as if she was afraid this was a too good to be true dream.
- I have always felt like you’re somebody I could never part with. It was almost like you were drawing me in with your dazzling smile and your sparkly eyes. Gods, you’re eyes, Lya. I see them every night I fall asleep. I dream of you even when I don’t remember it. I have accepted your friendship because having you in my life as my friend was better than not having you at all but I can’t pretend anymore. If you don’t feel the same, I will understand but I…
Whatever heartfelt declaration Liam meant to express was muffled by Dalya’s lips smashing into his own. Her smell on him was like poison and antidote at the same time. Without thinking twice, Liam got up from his knees, grabbing Dalya by her waist and sitting her in his lap as he plopped on the bed so that she was straddling him. The kiss was almost like electricity. Lust was thriving in their veins as they explored each other’s body. Liam’s hands on Dalya’ back and on her neck. Dalya’s fingers raking his blonde hair and scratching his shoulders. If two stars fell into each other and combined, they would be Liam and Dalya. Almost too close but never close enough. If their lungs didn’t protest in need of air they would never part but eventually their bodies won that battle. They broke the kiss, breathing heavily into each other’s mouths. They still had their hands on each other, afraid to let the other go as if they would run away. Dalya was the first one to pull away so that she could look at the blonde beneath her properly. Her eyes shone with their own light like they borrowed some from the sun itself. For Liam, she was the most exquisite creature he had ever laid his eyes upon. Gently she caressed his cheek, combing her fingers through his hair.
- Next time, just kiss me. And don’t make a fuss when I get hurt fighting. We’re riders, Liam. We are built to fight.
- Can’t promise you that, sweetheart. You’re my everything - said Liam with such sincerity in his voice Dalya swore she could melt right there and then. Playfully she rolled her eyes and quickly pecked his lips.
- You’re lucky I love you, otherwise you’d be in trouble.
Liam’s blue eyes lit up like dragon fire.
- You love me?
Dalya smiled at him warmly, putting her forehead on his inhaling his intoxicating smell.
- I love you.

There's a lot about discussion of hdwr that baffles me (not all discussion to be clear, because i do think there's a lot of good discussion about hdwr. But equally so are there the ones that make you wonder if you're reading the same story) and I think one that is especially annoying is the constant infantilization of miwa as this passive eternal victim. It drives me up a wall because this is quite literally an issue she's struggled with within the text of the story! She had an arc about how she dislikes how people treat her this way like towards the beginning of the story! And like even ignoring that, this story is about like nuanced and realistic portrayals of being in relationships and learning how to navigate them and so it's like what's the point if you're going to immediately reduce the characters to "the victim" and "the victimizers?" Is that even interesting? Is that a useful lens to look at interpersonal relationships?
#how do we relationship#hdwr#this is about the poll in the subreddit but i also saw similar comments (mostly about sae) on the website i was initially reading hdwr#i dunno like i'm like miwa fan numero uno so like i get ardently defending her but in my opinion#part of what makes these characters interesting is that all of them are extremely flawed in ways that can negatively feedback on each other#miwa has also done bad things to the other characters and been bad for them as well#i do think miwa repeatedly trying to turn being fwb with sae into a second chance despite sae clearly saying no#and repeatedly breaking sae's boundaries during that time was bad and shitty of her#i do think her avoiding tamaki and trying to supress her feelings despite that not being what tamaki asked for or wanted was bad andimmature#i do think that while miwa was under no obligation to say it to her i do think miwa's inability to tell sae that she loved her#even while asking to get back together was undeniably bad for sae as someone who had insecurities about being loved#personally these things are not unfortunate irredeemable aspects of her character#nor do they justify or excuse what happens to her#but instead characterize her as being inexperienced with romance and having strong feelings she isn't always able to completely express#or understand fully. this is an aspect of her character that is relateable and understandable to me#i find it hard to say that if i was in her position i wouldn't make the same mistakes as her#and like this is just one aspect of miwa's character. she of course has more than this which is why i am miwa fan numero uno but also#the same is true for like all of the main cast#they have depth and flaws that are relateable and realistic. even if you don't like a character's actions they're internally consistent#within not only the character themselves and the context of what they've been through but also the narrative itself i feel#which is why i like this story#so it feels unfortunate to flatten that all into who hurt who more or who is innocent and who is evil or whatever#like yes i obviously do think what sae did in like volume 5 was bad i also think what she did in vol 1-4 were also various shades of bad too#yes i do think what tamaki did in 103 was obviously bad#i mean ch. 119 and ch. 120 most likely are about exploring the consequences that has had on miwa#i just don't think it's useful interesting or even correct to look at those events as 'bad people doing bad things'#also while not related to miwa i think people who treat yuria and sae's relationship this way also baffle me i cannot understand it#channel 3

Sometimes I just look at Isabeau and just know that if isat came out and I got into it when I was like 16 he would be my favorite character and I would've gone absolutely buck wild over this man and feel like he was laser targeting me. But alas Odile has a grip of steel on me rn due to her virtue of being a middle aged woman
#rat rambles#stars posting#I feel like the biggest change in my taste in characters as the years have gone by is Im now far more biased towards old ppl lol#although tbf I was also the one person in 2016 who actually liked asgore so maybe Ive always liked parhetic old ppl#but yeah the reason isa is past me bait is because hes an exploration and subversion of the sort of tropes I Hated as a kid#and I still dont like them so isa still appeals to me its just not as much as he would have to a younger me#I do genuinely love all the party very dearly tho theyre all soooo good#I think my favorite part of isabeau is how like. of everyone we get to see the least facets of him but like in a very good way#this is a man who hides and bottles shit hes so fun to rotate#his self image is so carefully controlled compared to everyone else which makes him an incredibly interesting character to analyze#and I love that despite him seeming like the most emotionally stable person here on the surface he still clearly has like. hashtag issues.#like he's in that beautiful zone where its so so fun imagining what it would look like to truly break him#<- normal things that normal ppl say. like me.#I may have my very light beef with alt looping aus as a concept but hes probably the most interesting alternate looper to me#also my light beef exclusively relates to king quest stuff which is why Im a big fan of duo looper aus with sif#but honestly. isa might be the only one that I genuinely think works better as a solo looper even with taking king quest into account#although bonnie comes close. I <3 looper bonnie I <3 seeing fictional children go through the horrors#I think theres a lot of fun to be had with any alt looper au tho I just am a huge king quest fan so I like it when my favorite elements of#it dont have to be handwaved#but yeah the real question is how would younger me feel about mirabelle#because on the one hand: acearo character#but on the other hand: I have always been a little hater abt romance so idk if younger me would rly be able to follow her character well#I wasnt exactly good at character analysis back then lol#except for the instances in which I was but I dont have that sort of faith in my younger self#yknow Im thinking abt my history of favorite characters now and I think me being one of few 2016 alphys enjoyers might have been a prophecy#she was my quote unquote third favorite but in reality she was second#I think she chara and peridot su teamed up to define my taste in fictional characters for the next several years#and somehow that lead to olivia becoming one of my favorite fictional characters of all time#I say somehow as if that isnt a very natural conclusion

Various bowls/cups/etc. that I got from a store at COMPLETELY different times like.. years apart from each other#yet at some point realized that they all mostly match in paint color and seem to be part of the same pattern#But I totally didnt make that connection until a few years ago when I was putting up dishes. I just bought them all invidually because it's#like 'oh cool! a cat' *1 year later* 'oh cool! a cat!' etc. lol.. I guess it must be a popular design if it's been around being sold that#long.#7. carne asada burrito and matcha bubble tea... oughhgh.... again one of my very rare meals where I actually go and get something..#probably my favorite meal currently. Something about the Chronic Anemia makes me crave beef burritos madly despite only having one#maybe twice a year or so ghjbhj.. plus the beans.... onions.... many of my Diet Forbidden foods... Also of course the little aishas#are there.... somehow they shall split the meal together even though it's like 10x bigger than their bodies.. they are also hungry#and vastly anemic... huzzah to them...#8. I've had this shirt for a long time but it fits very weird so I can never find a way to use it in outfits?? But I recently had#an appointment where a doctor needed to be able to look at my back and it's one of the only actual Shirts that I have (mostly i just own#long robes or tunics or jumper dress type of things that would be hard to lift up or etc. like... I dont even own a single normal 't-shirt'#or anyting aside from one giant tshirt that I sleep in in the summer lol.) So I wore this there.. I forget how much I love the pictures on#it.. how pleasant... little hummingbird... AND I think one of the flowers is supposed to be columbine ... !#photo diary

I truly apologise but I've never found a character more irritating than Ruby Rocks. It is severely impacting my ability to watch a crown of candy because this bratty literally-the-embodiment-of-the-status-quo bitter bastard child won't stop sulking and being shitty to the only good surviving member of this royal bloodline (Saccharina).
The immediate Rocks family in general is so unsympathetic, I'm sorry but if you want me to feel bad over your personal growth journey you can't ALSO be a monarch who has absolute power over an entire nation-state. If you had literally the best education of everyone in your country and you're still an idiot I don't know what to tell you except that you're a resource hoarding pig who has not earned an iota of the power or luxury you have. They have SERVANTS and all they do is complain about going to class or doing their job. Hey if it sucks so bad demolish the state and redistribute your wealth <3 you won't <3
#shes just wrong and a brat. ive found it difficult to sympathise with the monarch characters the whole time but shes the worst of the 3#i was her age 3 months ago and I've NEVER been as stupid and ignorant and selfish as she is#youre gonna send thousands of your people to die at war over your own petty vendetta??? you grow up in immense privilege and all you do is#complain about the tiny bit of responsibility it comes with but the second someone else (who has worked infinitely harder and suffered#infinitely more) comes along and is willing to take that responsibility you hate her and talk shit and try and turn people against her#because she'll “uphold the status quo” WHERE did you get that from. she has more respect for the people and awareness about the monarchy#than you EVER have. youre a fuckin idiot rich kid. this is game of thrones-themed 1400s monarchy. some 30% of kids die in their first year#barely any of them can read. 90% of your people have experienced the death of their parents or siblings firsthand#but rather than ending the war you're gonna send MORE of them to die fighting the empire over your personal vendetta#saccharina has NEVER been pro church??? she is quite literally only taking the throne to CHANGE the status quo#meanwhile your ass would probably keel over and die after 2 seconds without the luxury that status quo has afforded you your entire life#you dont want to change SHIT. youre just mad it isnt you or your OTHER sister on the throne anymore. your dad is the fuckin EMPEROR#you ARE the status quo. “changing the status quo” means people come and take your house from you brat ass loser. it means they kill your#father. you dont want that youre just making excuses because youre a stupid brat who got oneshotted your first time leaving the castle#because despite 18 years of the best possible education you dont understand simple concepts like “people want to kill royalty”#jet died because she was immature and by god if ruby isnt carrying on her legacy
