[reader-wandering18]

Yuu Hunter x Hunter

Strange beasts and monsters. Vast riches, hidden treasures. Terrible places, unexplored frontiers. Mysterious and unknown.

People who are drawn to the magic of those words are known as HUNTERS.

Yuu Freecs, a boy from a vast, cruel and mysterious world, came to Twisted Wonderland.

What was a boy doing at Night Raven College?

Freecs' adventures leave his friends speechless. His kind personality reaches out to all students, including those who are not human.

The first time he arrived at Night Raven College was a moment that surprised everyone at that prestigious institution.

— A child? — Why did the dark mirror bring a child?

— Say your name.

— AMAZING, A TALKING MIRROR!

His surprise and excitement were reflected on his face. The scream he gave let the most observant ones see that he was someone curious and full of energy.

— Another Cheka — Leona sighed tiredly

— What kind of gel use to keep your hair like grass? — Vil commented upon seeing his black hair with green tips. He felt like combing it himself.

If someone young like him was at Night Raven College, it was because he had really powerful magic, right?

Wrong. That child does not contain even a pinch of magic. Many could not believe it and others made fun of him, but the boy did not appear expressionless or scared.

— Magic? JUST LIKE IN THE FAIRY TALES MY AUNT MITO TOLD ME?! I'm really sorry I don't have anything like that big mirror! But I use something very different than magic!

He seemed strangely excited.

— Waaa that boy really has a lot of energy, he's the worst enemy of an introvert like me — Idia had said scared through his tablet.

After that revelation a cat burst into the room. Demanding Yuu's place.

— That cat also talks!

— I'm not a cat!

— Is that so? So you're a magical animal? Mmm I remember Kurapika told me that magical animals can talk. But you don't look like a Kiriko at all.

— What are you talking about kid? I am the great and powerful Grim!

The place caught fire and everyone started running and screaming. Among all the most outstanding was Kalim who got his butt burned. While the other dorm leaders were discussing who should catch the cat, suddenly, that boy appeared in front of them.

— Take it

— Nyaaaaa Let me go!

— !!

The dorm leaders were surprised to see Yuu in front of them when a moment ago he was in the center of the room. And in his hands he held Grim wrapped in Kalim's robe that was previously burning.

Even Kalim looked confused. Yuu appearing behind him, said he would borrow his robe and took it off without any difficulty.

— Sorry, I don't know how to extinguish the fire. Catching it was the only thing I could do.

That year would be very interesting.

In the dwarf mine, Ace, Deuce, Yuu, and Grim were resting on the outskirts of that place due to the mysterious appearance of an ink monster that forced them to retreat. Ace, Deuce, began to fight when Yuu's scream made them shut up.

— Don't worry!

They both saw how the child stood up with great determination on his face.

— They won't be expelled, I won't allow it. His dream is to study at that school. Right? If we work as a team we can beat him. Also, I can't allow you to disappoint your mother — Yuu said looking at Deuce — it must be very important to you as it is to me to look for my father.

Yuu's innocent smile made both young men leave for some strange reason strongly hit… in their ego. How could I let a child save their skin? That would be extremely humiliating!

In the end, they all returned to school with the magic stone in their hands. Thanks to teamwork.

— Being appointed supervisor at such a young age and just entering is a great achievement!

— Is-Is that so?

— Why do you look so nervous? You seem so confident when we were in the mine.

— It's just that… it's my first time in school

—……WHAT?!

Yuu explained to them how she came from another world and lived on an island called Whale Island. There was only one other child on the entire island but he didn't play with her. She never went to school but studied at home with the help of her aunt Mito.

— Hey, now that I remember. In the mine you mentioned your father, right? — Grim asked

— Or yes, he left me when I was a baby. I'm looking for him.

— Are you looking for him? Your dad left you, why do you want to go look for him?!

At that Yuu stopped which made the two teenagers who were after him do so as well. He turned around and they both noticed that in Yuu's gaze there was nothing like remorse for being abandoned. On the contrary.

There was a great curiosity in his gaze.

— My father is a hunter. I also became one, to look for him and to know the world that he chose instead of taking care of me.

Yuu smile while mentioning his father.

— Hunter?

— Hello!

— …Hello

Malleus was in Ramshackle taking his usual walk. He appeared in the dormitory as usual, but was surprised by a child who took him completely off guard the moment he appeared.

He had heard from Lilia about the arrival of a human child without magic at the school. Which surprised him. But he didn't expect to see him in the abandoned dormitory.

The child smiles at him

— My name is Yuu, Yuu Freecss! It's a pleasure!

Yuu extended his hand to what Malleus saw without being able to believe what the child was doing. But it was rude not to greet, so he shakes hands with the small human child.

— … Aren't you afraid of me?

— Mmm, It's true that your aura is strong, but I don't feel a level of threat like Hisoka.

— What are you talking about? I don't know that Hisoka… Don't you know who I am?

— No, I'm sorry. — said the boy somewhat embarrassed.

His reaction seemed genuine, there was nothing like malaise or fear. It reminded him in a way of Silver when he was younger.

— Do you live here?

— Yes, along with a cat named Grim

With each answer that Malleus gave him he could see it. That boy seemed to have so much energy.

— I see. It's a pity, I liked to take night walks around here since it's very quiet. But I guess I'll have to look for another place.

— Seriously, I'm really sorry! I didn't mean to take away your place to explore!

Yuu shouted while bowing in apology, that causes Malleus to become more curious about the human child.

— It's okay, it's not your fault that you live here. Well, I'll take my leave.

— Wait a moment.

But Malleus had disappeared in a bunch of bright lights.

— Wow, that’s amazing — Yuu said, catching one of those lights in his hands.

— I couldn’t ask him his name.

Malleus appeared in another part of the school. He felt a little dejected that his favorite place was occupied, but there was nothing he could do. He couldn’t get that kid out of the place. He looked up to see how high the moon was until he remembered.

— Now that I think about it. Lilia said that humans should sleep to have energy the next day, or they will have health problems. But that human child was awake at this time.

While, outside the dormitory, Yuu was practicing his NEN.

My Hunter x Hunter fever came back!

The first time I saw it I was very young, two or three years younger than the main characters, time has passed and now I'm older than them buuuu 😭.

Gon is my number one main character. With that personality that I met at the beginning of the anime it was love at first sight. I'm sure that if I met Malleus they would be great friends because you know. Gon being Gon.

This anime was my second Shonen and the only one I managed to stay faithful to until today. No matter the years, for me Hunter x Hunter will be the best anime.

YES YOU CAN TOGASHI!

This idea started with a fanfic of the boys' reaction to a Yuu from different worlds, including Hunter x Hunter. I liked it so much that when I wanted to read it again I realized that they had deleted the fanfic :'v that was found on Wattpad. To get that thorn out of my side I had decided to do this. I'm thinking about whether to make more parts or not. In case you noticed, I'm a person with a lot of ideas, but I never manage to finish a story.

[the-moon-files]

So I have tried to request this prompt from someone else but I don't think their blog is that active anymore. If your willing I'd love to request the following.

Prompt: Reader is bisexual and gender neutral.

Reader is considered fairly attractive and gets flirted with pretty often by basically whoever gender wise. And maybe reader and Zelda even end up flirting a little bit. Reader would have a similar lackadaisical flirty personality as Warriors has.

I wanted to see how each of The Chain would react to this with the context of them having secret feelings for the reader.

2nd official request, woo look at me go 🏃💨

Sun: Gender-neutral Reader (”you”/they/them)

Orbit: Headcanons-ish

Stars: Zelda (Assuming they meant BOTW), + the classic Chain of Links <3

Comets & Meteors: Content Warnings: mild cussing, mild typical loz violence, Mildly Suggestive, & Trigger Warnings: none known.

Please comment if I missed any. /gen

so i like to think that modern flirting is radically different than their medieval flirting,

like mayyybbeee Wild can handle it, but even then, they have royalty/knights still, so hes still gettin flustered lol

and i like to think u learned that difference the first time Wars complimented ur new/strange modern fit, and u returned the energy?? except 10x stronger (to them)??

youve played the player, and beat him at his own game, the Captain of the knights is sputtering and shit LMAO

(he said smth like, “their beauty is god-like in this otherworldly clothing“ and YOU said smth like he’d “thank you, youd look better in my bed than in armor 👉 😎 👉 ” lmao)

funniest part is, bc its so natural, i can see u immediately shooting off smth and forgetting it instantly, much to the Links collective shock 😭

u go to towns and notice theres always 1 hero around to steer u away from shopkeepers, townsppl, etc so u wont flirt w/them LMAO

(when u finally notice, u just, “ohh i get it now, so im only allowed to flirt with someone named Link, ohhh, okayy” and they just, “NO we didnt say that-!” “No its just their bold flirtations are not for the weak of heart-!” “Yes.” “CAPTAIN-”)

the only one who they cant steer u away from is Zelda.

afterall, they kinda have to inform the Princess/now Queen of the kingdom, whats going on w/them traveling with Link (Wild) around time and space

the sheikah tablet had been disconnecting + reconnecting to Purah’s both fascination and worry

so as theyre invited to eat dinner and explain in the rebuilding castle, everyone’s absorbed in shadow talk or smth, and u can see Zelda’s struggling to follow along, u just casually bring it back to her, as she’s also trying to write notes and theyve moved on too quickly w/o her

“wowww, all these men and not a single one’s gonna offer the lady any, ‘hi, hello, how is the most beautiful girl in the world today?’ “

and the gapingggg from the links shut them right up, while Zelda goes all pink and coughs, and agrees that they should move on to more chill topics lol

and u can crack anybody tbh, Zelda giggles at ur compliments all the time, even in work mode, u can deffo get Wars to blush to his ears, and even Time to look away first in a flirty + staring contest lol

Legend might actually put his hands up like he’s prepared to fight u anytime u try to flirt at him when its just you two, before he realizes what hes doing and stops LMAO

oh and u absolutely get a lot of mileage out of that one lol

the best reactions have gotta be, in order of most to least extreme: Hyrule, Sky, Wild, Four, Legend, Twilight, Wars, Time

Rulie, Sky, Wild and Four fall into that classic, shocked-heart-eyes, full blush up to their pointy ears, etc category when u get them,

they are also very easy to get lmao

Four is the best at recovery, or ducking away, but if its the Colors, its this type of obvious lol, w/the obvious ones like Red and Blue, Green takes a little more to break, and tbh Vio could go toe-to-toe w/u better than Wars tbh before he crumbles under the pressure lol

Legend, Twi, Wars, and Time faces may not change a lot, bc theyre trying to save it lmao, but the way their cheeks go pink and ears twitch is how u know ur gettting to them (along w/legend’s defensive reaction to getting cornered LMAO)

Twi has caved and covered his face w/his hands before lmao

one day youll get Time to break more than an ear twitch, and looking away, One Day.

(Wind is in fact, having the time of his life, watching you absolutely hilariously wreck these otherwise v serious heroes, hes glad u got them to finally relax a little, but also its hilarious seeing Wars and Legend red faces, and occasionally stealing Wild’s tablet to take funny pics of them all to blackmail later lol)

☆

idk how good that was, as im kinda bust at flirty banter between characters, so i hope this suffices ur need to flirt w/everyone lol

also i feel i should apologize for not rlly including pronouns? it just kinda comes w/writing reader stories to put them in 2nd person to both make intimacy for readers w/their little avatar im controlling for them, and to purposefully remove the need for gendered pronouns :/

so im sorry i couldnt quite figure out how to make it where “they/them” got used much, i promise i love all pronouns, its just a skill issue tbh lmao

btw

send any prayers, blessings, or good vibes u got my way tomorrow bc im getting wisdom teeth surgery and i am intimidated✨

ill post more asks (i have multiple asks!! <33) after im lying in bed lamenting my painful fate,

mostly just worried ill react badly to the drugs, also the idea of being knocked out during surgery is a little scary so what can i say

have a great weekend guys!! thanks for reading if u did :)

Peace out,

🌙

Among The Bullets

Chapter 2 part 1

Summary: You're a transfer mechanic for a task force which you know nothing about, and while trying to figure out your standing with each of the members you begin to realize you may be over your head. (Evental romance, He just sucks at flirting)

 It had been a solid twenty hours of continuous work, about four energy drinks and two coffees, and three ten-minute naps, you finished round one of the daily tasks, or at the very least you had caught up. Yet, as you slowly move to sit back down on your workbench, you find yourself feeling a bit worse for wear, the sun had already come up and then it had set all over again, so it…made sense that you were tired, or at least you thought it did, or maybe you thought you would drop dead if you kept going or maybe a lot of things but you knew the room was beginning to spin and you knew you had a few more tasks but those could wait another ten minutes. 

Just…a ten minute nap. 

You deserved that at the very least, you had been working for the past twenty-something hours and had been awake for the past fifty- how weren’t dead was beyond you and how you hadn’t dropped was also beyond you. So as you drop your tool into the bag from your seated position you blink to keep the room from spinning.

Then you would be able to crawl back into bed and fall into a deep sleep for a good eight hours, after a shower, or maybe not, you weren’t sure but either way, you grumble as you sit down and rest your head down onto the bench, your tote back rolled up to be more comfortable than your hands. Ten minutes.

“Ho’ long bonnie been out?” 

“Since I got here.” 

Johnny looks at Kyle, “Tha’ been wha? Four hours?” 

With a slight nod, Kyle sat back on the crate he used as a makeshift chair after he had been told to get you so they could start going over the basic procedures needed for the mission, he had a few other plans that included breakfast. yet when he didn’t find you where he had thought you would've been he wandered to the hangar, still in the same clothes you were wearing two days ago. So Kyle shrugs, “Thinkin she was here since last night.” 

Johnny leans over to get a good look at your face, scrunched up as it lay on the bundled-up bag and he looks to Kyle again, moving a step or so away so the noise wouldn’t wake you. Yet that seemed to not matter because you were sound asleep amid a very loud and busy garage, so his efforts, however kind, were useless and pointless. So, they go on about their business, talking for a long bit before Simon finds his way over to them, seeming to be confused because this is not where they would usually be, but Johnny just motions to your very asleep form as he sits there.

Simon looks between his teammates and then you, motioning the tablet to you as he speaks to Johnny, “Ho’ long?” 

“A while.” Kyle responded with a dull shrug. 

With that being said Simon walked over to you and lightly nudged your boot with his, and when that only got a somewhat annoyed mumble he moved to touch your shoulder, hesitantly at that, almost as if he were to touch you it would shatter something. So, after a millisecond of faltering, he lay in hand on your back. He figured it must be a third thing because if he had some random person touch him while he was asleep (which he would never do in a public space) he would’ve quite literally tried to kill the person. You, however, just grumbles moving your head to lay on the other side. He doesn’t know what to do, so he moves his thumb over your spine and speaks, “Wake up.” 

To say a dump of adrenaline was shot into your blood would be an understatement because every muscle and every ounce of cognitive thought was all of sudden turned to a hundred and ten and you shoot up to stand- almost tripping over your bench twice as you got your footing and your vision unblurred. “Sir.” Your words were to catch yourself up and you mindlessly rub your eyes as you adjust to the light, and you look to the other two men, giving them a meek smile as well, “Sirs.”

 “I was jus, ya know…taking a little nap-just a little nap…” You trail off, avoiding the gaze of the masked man who stood a bit too close to you for your comfort, discarding how his hand was extended as if you were about to be very dramatic which you weren’t. Then you notice that the truck you had been working on was long gone, and your blood runs cold, “Wh..” 

   You walk past him and then go to the spot where the truck had been, “Where this?” 

 Their confused stares were words enough and your face contorted to a disgruntled frown, and you motioned to the stained cement ground, “The truck?? The-...the processing number was G839F09. Where did it go??”

“Why do you know the processing number?” Kyle mainly asked for himself and he looked down at the MRE he had been very slowly eating for the past ten or so minutes, and when he looked up he saw you had moved back to the work desk- having the guts to shove Simon to the side and grab the tablet. Seemingly to look for something. 

There was a silence before you let out a huff of air and placed your hand on your chest, “Oh thank god, I thought I-” You look up to still see them very quizzically staring at you and you laugh off the heat in your face, “I-uh, thought I forgot to the drums, I-heh- sleepy me is very detail oriented apparently.” There was another silence, and you then turned around and set the tablet down, letting your heart try and slow the pace it was currently drumming at, and then nodded with a spin of the heel, “Anyway…Where can a girl get something to eat around here?”

“After the briefing,” Simon interjected, causing your head to turn upward to see him, a frown appearing on the faint smile that had managed to weasel its way onto your lips he then motioned to the tablet you had just set down, “Then you’ll eat.”

To that Johnny and Kyle move to stand up, as they were both waiting for this supposed briefing you had just now been hearing about and you try to deny that, following after them as you ramble on about all of the things you need to get done. How the list you had been given was never ending and all the time you had was to eat and maybe nap, however, Simon’s reply was always ‘It’ll be only a minute’ or just a short and gruff laugh as if your concerns were humorous to him. 

Your rambling fell quiet when you entered the room, darkened and silent- a sudden contrast to the hallway you had just been in, stopping in the doorway only to feel the same hand that had awoken you to find the spot in between your shoulder blades; nudging you forward until you were fully out of his way. It was just light enough that you could make out the people, the large screen of what you thought was a TV-like monitor. 

Somehow you had found yourself tucked away in the very back, within the room there were about twenty or so people so you blended among the crowd. Within that, you had found it very easy to simply zone out, somewhat listening to whatever general and whatever they had to say, however, they were saying things you had already read- risky mission, yadda yadda, the part that did catch your attention was the transportation they were choosing to use. 

“That’s a horrible idea, oh my god, that’s so funny how bad of an idea that is,” Is what you thought you were simply thinking however as the sound of rustling and the current speaker, a woman you had met before- Lassie or something you couldn’t remember- looking to you. Your heart fell to your stomach you adjusted the way you were leaning back on the plastic chair, clearing your throat, motioning to the woman, “I…didn’t mean to say that out loud. I am so sorry I-.. please, go on. Please.”

“No, please, you’re our consult. Consult us.” She remarked back motioning you up with her hand and she must have found your terrified stare humorous because a small smile appeared on the expression. However, even though you didn’t want to, you slowly stood and walked to the front. 

With each hand griping the other tight enough to cut off air circulation you speak slowly, “I mean…These would be fine- they’d be fine until you ran out of coolant and you’re now in the middle of enemy terrorists and you’re stuck and then you’d all be dead so I mean…Yeah, they’d be fine.”

A short silence. “What would you recommend?” “Oh, these by far- best mileage and whatnot, you would just need to bring about two gallons of coolant.” You shrug in reply, “However if you wanted a continuous ride with a somewhat similar build I would go with the…the…Q68- yeah, those would be best.” 

A nod, “You got it.” 

“Huh?” No one listened to your words as the woman moved on to the next topic, and so you quickly moved to walk over back to your table and sit back down, shrinking down into the chair.

…

Simon looked back at you for a moment before mumbling, “Bold.” 

    “Bold?” Johnny whispered in reply, “Bonnie up and up tol’ her to shu’t it,”

(Annnnnyway that’s it! Lemme know your thoughts! <33)

18|10|2023

Today I was more productive than I expected to be. I have been struggling a lot with focusing, and today it wasn't an exception, but I still crossed out all the tasks of my daily to do list. Autumn is definitely here, the temperatures got very low, and we also got the first rain today. Tomorrow it's going to be a bit annoying to commute if it will rain again, but I am not too mad at finally having proper autumnal weather. I am walking around the house wrapped in a blanket at all times, but that is my regular form for most of the year. I am still feeling a bit stuck with my crochet project, so I am trying not to force myself, because it's a hobby and not a job, but at the same time I would like to pick it up again because since my energies are so low I am spending more of my free time watching digital screens and it's not ideal. The thing is that I would normally read in my free time to shut off my brain and relax, but right now I am way too tired to also read in my free time. I end up listening to podcasts which are fun, but if I am not crocheting while doing that I am either playing some mindlss games or coloring on my tablet, which is still a digital screen, and my eyes aren't happy about it. I am thankfully getting a bit of reading done with graphic novels since I have decided to reread the first five volumes of Something Is KIlling The Children, but I feel like I haven't found the right balance for my free time yet.

Cozy hobbit autumn activities and productivity:

read first thing in the morning

daily Irish practice on duolingo (after creating yet again a review plan to go alongside the units I have not worked on yet. Because of course right after I was done with my big review they changed everything and now everything looks different and there is some vocab I never worked on)

listened and wrote notes for a lecture of my power practices and men theories class

finished reading and highlighting the article I had to read about The Merchant Of Venice

updated my reading journal

worked on a series of future bookish posts

continued listening to the mistholme museum podcast (which I am really enjoying! I found out about it quite randomly because it was recommended to me on spotify, but now I am really invested in it)

[yuyanwrites]

Helloo so about your requests...

idk if you'd be comfortable with writing that but how about bsd men (Dazai and Chuuya at least, add more if you want) with an s/o that has an eating disorder? Not in a romantic way, hell no. If you're not okay with that, just ginkre this, it's fine. <3

BSD men with an s/o that has an eating disorders

Dazai

He used to ask you so many times to do a double suicide with him

But then he saw you crying and he realised how serious it was

He would never want anyone to spiral into melancholiness

Dazai doesn't understand your eating disorders fully nor will be say that he knows the specifics of your pain

But he does know how it feels to be alone, when you think you can't deal with "it" anymore

After all he oftens stands on the balcony with a glass of whiskey in hand as fresh bandages wrapped around his body

I think he'd get you to join him

It's an incredibly delicate moment where both of you are completely vulnerable

No games, no lies, no mask

He's a touchy guy very affectionate

And slowly with his affection, advice (cause omg is that man smart), and support he'll slowly try to get you to be comfortable with eating

With your own body

And you know he'd do anything to make you see what he sees

Because he sees a beautiful person inside and out who was able to love him the good and the bad

And he'd be damned if he couldn't do the same for you <3

Chuuya

Chuuya is an alcoholic who drinks his problems away

It helps that he's a lightweight so it doesn't take much for him to forget about... everything

But he knows that's not good

And he'd never let you go down that route, no way, not on his watch

He'd try to convince you to seek professional help he'd pay all your sessions anything you need

If youd rather not he'll try to convince you here and there but not push it

Instead he moniters you and makes sure you eat little by little from a snack to a meal to 3 square meals a day and he'd celebrate every milestone

And let's be honest you'll probably never have the chance to try and vomit the food up on his watch

That man has a six sense I swear

Ranpo

I'm sorry but ranpo will not understand

I don't think he'll ever fully understand

"But why don't you eat?! Food is good!" Type of guy

But he knows it's hurting you, not eating

And it becomes all the more real when he walks in on you hunched over the toilet seat as the contents of the ada's group linch falls out your mouth

The bitter acid of it makes you shiver

He starts to get you to eat under the guise of making you try his new favourite snack (that happens to change every week)

A little bit more than what you'd eat to get you through the day but not enough that you could throw it up so easily

Sweets=sugar=energy for you to survive -Ranpo

And on the nights when you can't take it anymore

He lets you climb into his lap and cry which is unusual considering you were the one to always baby him

But it didn't matter, not in that moment

Fyodor

You tried to get him to eat iron tablets once to help him as he's anemic

Now he's trying to do the same with you but with food

I think he'd bring up the hypocrisy of it

So blunt omg 😭

If he offers you a logical solution and you don't take it (because it's obviously not easy) he'll just stare at you contemplating why you did not take his offer

Low-key thinks you're doubting his intelligence

But alas he takes another approach and slowly gets you to eat

He definitely reads a lot of books so he'd have some knowledge on this

Not a very touchy person like dazai or ranpo but he gives you headpats and forehead kisses after every meal that you don't throw up

He likes to make you tea because it's nutritious but not a solid food

And if all fails he'll low-key manipulate you so um yeah...

Nikolai

So silly very silly guy

Immediately goes to Fyodor for help

He makes your food into cute little animals and stuff like you're a kid just to make you feel better

Does little shows while you eat you forget you're eating

And boom the plate is empty how'd that happen?

In the beginning he'd sneak a few spoons of like porridge or something of the sorts into your mouth every hour

He's a very touchy guy as well so he's always cuddling you and telling you how much he loves you

It's honestly very sweet and it's not often you see a sincere Nikolai telling you how much he loves you while the two of you are laying on the couch, movie long forgotten

He'll gasp if you say you skipped a meal and then hop into the kitchen to make something (I'm sorry he's just dramatic like that no guilt tripping at all)

A/n: I'm sorry this took so long 😭 I'm taking a long time with all of my requests because I have so many projects both writing and not going on but I hope you enjoyed and have a wonderful day!

The Creation

The night swathed you in moonlight. The silver gleam held your eye through the open window, the noise of the ocean crashing in from the shore. Behind you, he snored. Deep snorts and long exhales. A rhythm that unsettled you. A peace he stole from you.

He kept telling you it would feel better. That you could enjoy it too. But you didn’t. Not when he tried again. And again. And again.

It still hurt. Your insides ached and your thighs were raw from the friction. Your eyes were still wet and would not dry, no matter how much you wiped them. You could not sleep. You found that task as difficult as ever.

You rose and looked at Peter. His naked torso was pale above the tangled blanket. You remembered his strength, him pinning you to the bed even as you writhed and told him how much it hurt. Did he not hear you? Did he not believe you?

You touched between your legs. It was still slimy there. An odd sensation you disliked. You went into the bathroom and washed yourself. That only made the pain worse.

You put on a nightgown and left Peter to sleep alone. He was your friend, your best friend. You loved him, but you felt something else. Something you couldn’t name.

The tablet was where he left it. You picked it up and exited the video he made you watch. It was worse than in the movie. That woman seemed happy, you didn’t fell happy.

You sat and winced as your own weight sent a pang up through your body. You eased yourself against the armrest, letting the pressure off your bottom, and curled up as you cradled the tablet and looked for a movie to watch. You stopped at Casablanca but before you could click, you saw another movie above.

You focused as you sounded out the words; the other movies you know mostly by the pictures. ‘The Br-ide…of… Frank-en-steen.’ You tilted your head. You’d never heard of that before. The cover was black and white and a scared looking woman with tall hair looked out at you. 

A bride? Would you marry Peter now? He said he loved you and you loved him. He kissed you and did other things with you. You would ask him tomorrow.

You hit play, curious to know who Frankenstein was and why his bride seemed so frightened. You leaned the tablet in its case on the table and nestled down with a pillow. Your body was heavy from what he did. From what you did. 

The movie was confusing. There was a dead man who turned out to be alive and a monster with a squared head. Men take a woman’s body from a grave and tell the monster she will be his mate. You watched, unnerved but bound by the storm raging. The Doctor worked to put together a woman from the dead.

You sat up. You could not look away. The woman in her bandages was slowly unveiled. You felt the scars around your body; the stitched at shoulder and wrist, around your neck. As the bride is revealed, your world was bared fully before you. You knocked over the tablet as your chest knotted tightly.

You lumbered around the room and turned on the light. You looked at the square mirror hung by the door. You examined your face and the scarring all over you. How your scalp didn’t match the rest of your head. It could not be true. You were being foolish.

You pulled away your hands and looked at them. These were always your hands. They were always this big. Never small like a child’s. You were never a child. You don’t remember being small. You only remember being like that. 

A crack of thunder rolled through the sky and shook you. You pulled your hands down to your sides and watched the windows light up. You were never a child. You were not a woman. You were not like Peter. You were what he made you.

He made you.

He made you. 

You backed up as the eerie music plucked from the tablet, distant from the front room. You spun, afraid, of yourself, of this world. Who were you? What were you? A monster! A monster!

Why would he do that? Why would he curse you? Why would he make you this hideous thing? Why would he make you only to cause you pain? 

You turned to the door and ripped it open. You did not think before you dashed out into the darkness. You did not stop or even try to. You ran and ran and ran. Away from Peter and his lies.

🌙

You chased the sunlight. The morning came bright and yellow as you stumbled upon the outskirts of pale buildings with square tops and long windows. You’d never seen anywhere like that yourself. You’d only seen towns and cities on the screen. There was only the house on the shore. That was all you’d ever known. All that Peter ever let you know.

You walked along a street and took in the sights. A man emerged from a door and didn’t seem to notice you passing. A dog ran around in a fenced yard and you watched him pick up a stick. You went closer and reached your hand out to offer a pet. The animal sniffed and retreated as if struck. You recoiled and carried on.

A woman and a stroller passed. You noticed how she looked at you. You must have looked odd. No shoes and all.

You heard voices trailing you and turned to see a group of three following you. They stared and spoke in low tones. You kept going, turning your head to see all that you could. You didn’t know where to go next. You didn’t have anywhere to go. You only knew Peter and he would be mad to find you gone. And you are mad at him too. Yes, that is how you felt; mad.

You got further and heard more voices. A wall that seemed to surround you. The street opened up and you found rows of booths, vendors selling fruit and trinkets, as people mill about. It was just like a film!

You rushed forward to look at a shiny display. Rings set on cushions and long golden chains sparkling in the sunlight. A shadow shifted above you and you looked up at the man. He spoke in a language you don’t understand. As he saw your face, he stepped back and his mouth fell open.

You frowned and he just gaped. You looked to the other man behind the same table and he made a motion with his hand, muttering low on his breath. You turned and saw the three strangers who followed you there.

You shook your head and continued to the next booth. There you received a similar reaction. A woman cried out and a child blubbered. You touched your face then tore your hands away to examine your skin.

Hideous creature! 

You spun and looked around you at the faces, at the bodies closing in, words you couldn’t understand. Coming towards you, circling you, like in that movie. You remembered how they shot the monster after he saved that girl. No, no, no.

A woman touched your arm and you howled. You shoved her away, shrieking as you batted away another hand. They talked to you in their twisted words, their strange language. You backed up until you hit the booth. Cornered, you searched frantically for an exit.

You grabbed the edge of the table and pushed back. It scraped on the ground and moved as you stepped back on your heels. Your terror mounted and all at once, you turned and threw the table away from you. It flew over the heads of the vendors and landed against a car.

The crowd went silent. They stared, terrified. Of you!

You shielded yourself with one arm and fell into step. You ran and ran without looking back, ashamed, scalded by their rejection. You didn’t want to hurt anyone. You just wanted to look.

The Creator

He stretched his arm out, disappointed to find an empty bed. His eyes opened slowly, staring at the yellow plaster above. He spent months on the solution, on making sure he never woke up alone, and here was.

He planted his hands and pushed himself up. The curtains stirred with the morning breeze, the scent of the sea drifting in. Naked still, he rose and covered himself with a pair of linen boxers. 

He paused as memories of the night before came to him. He gripped the doorframe before he could pass through as his pelvis squeezed at the thought of her around him. She felt amazing. The perfect fit for him. Maybe she could make it up to him. After all, she did leave him all alone.

As Peter reached the top of the stairs, he heard an odd shrill music. Instrumentals that make the soul uneasy. He descended to the first floor expecting to see her through the open archway, watching one of her films. He followed the melody and found the tablet on the floor.

He bent to pick it up and read the title card above the button, ‘watch again’. The Bride of Frankenstein. His heart plummeted. He flipped the case closed, locking the tablet and muting the music. No, even if she watched it, she wouldn’t figure it out. She couldn’t.

He dropped the tablet on the sofa as he went back into the hallway. The door is ajar, just an inch or so, letting in a slat of sunlight that shines blindingly against the mirror. He stumbles forward and rips the door back all the way. He sees the remnants of footsteps in the dirt. No, no! Where could she go? She couldn’t have gotten far.

He retreated inside. He would have to go find her. He was faster, he knew this world better, she couldn’t get far. He sprinted up the stairs and dressed. He tidied his hair and sat to tie his shoes. He grabbed the phone he hid in the safe. It flashed with an alert. The ones he always swept away and ignored.

‘Attention Avengers. Anomaly in Lerici. Call to investigate.’

Shit. How long had she been gone? It didn’t matter, it was long enough to draw attention. He unlocked the phone and tapped the notification. It brought up a case file and a video. He could tell by the angle it was taken on a cellphone.

Fuck! His creation, his precious, was there, panicked and terrified. She pushed through a table and stormed away, her movement clumsy but overpowered. People screamed and swore. They thought she was a monster. She wasn’t. Not to him.

He took a breath. There at the bottom of the alert, a checkmark stood beside the words; responder deployed. That meant Peter was on the clock. He had to find her before whoever they sent did. Well, he was here and they had to get there.

Besides, Spidey was always good at finding where the trouble was.

Part 1: The Rift Between Worlds

Summary: As the CEO of a billion-dollar company, your life is defined by power, precision, and control. But when a curse shatters your reality, you’re pulled from the boardroom into a world of sorcery, danger, and a man who defies all logic—Gojo Satoru.

Stranded in a universe that shouldn’t exist, you must navigate the unpredictable landscape of Jujutsu High while searching for a way home. But with every step deeper into this world, the lines between duty, fate, and something far more personal begin to blur.

Can you find your way back to your life, or has this new reality already changed you?

The journey begins, but the ending is anything but certain.

The soft glow of the moon peeked through the curtains of your office, casting a silver light across your desk. Stacks of papers lay before you, all neatly organized yet untouched for the past hour. Your eyes, however, weren’t on the documents that demanded your attention as the president and CEO of one of the most powerful companies in the world.

Instead, they were locked on the anime playing on your tablet.

You sighed, allowing yourself a brief escape. Being the head of a billion-dollar empire came with unrelenting pressure, expectations that weighed heavily on your shoulders. The world saw you as the definition of power and control, but in moments like these, you found solace in the fictional worlds you adored.

In the dim light of your office, you clicked onto the next episode, smiling as your favorite character delivered a line you’d heard a thousand times but never tired of.

Then it happened.

The air in the room shifted. You felt a sudden, unnerving pull in your chest. The tablet fell from your hands, the anime fading into background noise as an invisible force gripped you. Your vision blurred, and panic surged through your veins as the room around you distorted.

“What…what is this?”

Before you could comprehend what was happening, darkness enveloped you.

Your consciousness returned slowly. The sensation of rough stone beneath your hands was the first thing you noticed, followed by the chill of the wind against your skin. Your head pounded, the remnants of the strange force that had pulled you still lingering in your body.

As your vision cleared, you blinked, taking in your surroundings. You were no longer in your office. Instead, you found yourself in a dimly lit alley, the soft hum of a city you didn’t recognize surrounding you.

“Where…where am I?”

Standing up slowly, you rubbed your temple, trying to shake off the dizziness. The buildings around you were old, yet unfamiliar, and the air carried a sense of unease that set your nerves on edge.

“This…this isn’t my world.”

Before you could dwell on the unsettling realization, you heard footsteps approaching from behind.

“Oi, you lost or something?”

You spun around, coming face-to-face with a tall figure clad in a black uniform. His silver hair gleamed in the moonlight, but what caught your attention most were his eyes—well, his lack of visible eyes. A blindfold covered them, yet he seemed to be looking straight at you.

“You don’t have cursed energy,” the man said, tilting his head, curiosity dripping from his tone. “So, how’d you end up here?”

You blinked at him, still trying to process the strange situation. “Cursed energy? What are you talking about?”

He smirked, stepping closer. “Well, that’s new. Most people either run or attack when they see me.”

You narrowed your eyes, your instinct to regain control over the situation kicking in. “I don’t know who you are, but I need answers. Where am I?”

He chuckled, seemingly amused by your demand. “You’re in Tokyo, but I have a feeling this isn’t the Tokyo you’re familiar with.”

Your heart dropped. The Tokyo you knew didn’t have cursed energy or strange men with blindfolds. Something was terribly wrong.

The man’s voice broke through your thoughts again. “Name’s Gojo Satoru. I’m a teacher at Jujutsu High, and you, well…” He grinned. “You seem to be in a bit of a bind.”

Gojo led you to Jujutsu High, your mind racing with questions that refused to settle. As you followed him, you couldn’t help but be drawn to his carefree attitude, despite the weight of your situation. You had never met anyone like him before—someone who exuded such overwhelming power and yet acted as though nothing could touch him.

At the entrance to the school, a group of students gathered, each of them glancing curiously at you. One with pink hair—Yuji, Gojo introduced—stepped forward.

“She’s not a sorcerer, right? So…how did she end up here?”

Gojo shrugged, leaning against the wall with a smirk. “That’s the million-dollar question.”

You felt a surge of frustration bubble up inside you. “Can someone just tell me what’s going on? I don’t belong here. I need to get back to my world.”

Gojo’s smirk faded slightly, his tone becoming more serious. “It’s not that simple. If you were pulled here by a curse, it’s going to take some time to figure out how to send you back.”

You clenched your fists. You didn’t have time. You had responsibilities, a company to run, a life that depended on you. And now, you were stuck in a world you barely understood.

Over the next few days, you found yourself stuck at Jujutsu High, the unfamiliarity of it all gnawing at you. Gojo had taken an interest in you—whether because of the mystery surrounding your appearance or simply because he enjoyed your company, you weren’t sure.

“You’re handling this pretty well for someone who got yanked out of her world,” Gojo commented one afternoon, leaning back in his chair with a lazy smile. “Most people would be freaking out by now.”

“I don’t have time to freak out,” you replied curtly. “I need to figure out how to get back.”

Gojo tilted his head, his expression softening. “You don’t have to shoulder everything on your own, you know. Let us help.”

You glanced at him, surprised by the sincerity in his voice. There was something about him—despite his lighthearted nature, there was an unspoken understanding between the two of you. As if, in some way, he knew what it felt like to carry the weight of an entire world on your shoulders.

Still, you pushed the thought aside. Getting attached to these people, to this world, would only make leaving harder. You had to stay focused. You had to get home.

But as the days passed, and as you spent more time with Gojo and the students, a small, dangerous part of you began to wonder if maybe—just maybe—leaving wouldn’t be as easy as you thought.

You kept to yourself for the next few days, trying to adjust to the reality that this wasn’t some bizarre dream. You had indeed been yanked from your dimension, thrown into a world where curses existed, and people like Gojo Satoru and his students had to fight them off.

Every night, as you lay in the unfamiliar room you had been given at Jujutsu High, your mind wandered back to your office, to the responsibilities piling up in your absence. Your father’s empire, needed you. You were irreplaceable. Who would step in for you? Who would ensure your billion-dollar company wouldn’t collapse under the weight of its own success?

But even as you thought of your home, you couldn’t help but notice the pull that Jujutsu High had on you. Gojo, with his infuriatingly smug attitude, was a puzzle you found yourself drawn to. His students, although younger and less experienced than you in life, had a kind of strength that intrigued you. And for some reason, despite your determination to return to your universe, you found yourself standing at the training grounds each day, watching them practice.

One morning, as you stood on the sidelines, Gojo approached you with his signature grin.

“Enjoying the show, Boss Lady?” he teased, leaning casually against the wall next to you.

You crossed your arms. “You can call me by my name, you know.”

“I could,” he said, shrugging, “but ‘Boss Lady’ suits you so well.”

You rolled your eyes, but there was a warmth to his teasing that made it hard to stay annoyed. “What do you want, Gojo?”

He straightened, that ever-present smirk still in place. “You’ve been watching for a while now. Why not get in there and try it out for yourself?”

You raised an eyebrow. “What, you want me to fight curses?”

Gojo chuckled, shaking his head. “No, but I could teach you some self-defense techniques. Never know when it might come in handy.”

For a moment, you considered his offer. Back in your world, you had dealt with ruthless business competitors, people who would do anything to undermine your success. Learning how to protect yourself in a world filled with literal monsters seemed like a logical next step.

“All right,” you said finally, “I’m in.”

Gojo’s smile widened. “Great. Let’s start now.”

Training with Gojo was both exhilarating and frustrating. you had never been in a situation where physical combat was necessary. You were used to outsmarting your opponents, not fighting them head-on. Gojo, on the other hand, made it look effortless.

“That’s your problem,” he said, blocking one of your punches with ease. “You’re thinking too much. You need to react.”

You scowled at him. “It’s hard not to think when you’ve never done this before.”

He laughed, sidestepping your next attack with that infuriating grace of his. “And here I thought you were good at handling pressure.”

You glared at him, your frustration building. “You know, it would help if you weren’t so smug about this.”

Gojo’s grin softened slightly, and for the first time since you met him, you saw a flicker of something more serious in his eyes. “I’m not trying to make this harder for you,” he said quietly. “But if you’re going to survive in this world, you’ll need to be prepared for anything.”

His words hit you harder than you expected. This world was dangerous—more dangerous than the cutthroat corporate world you had dominated for so long. Here, power wasn’t just about money or influence. It was about life and death.

“Okay,” you said, your voice more determined. “Let’s go again.”

After hours of training, you sat on the ground, exhausted but satisfied. Gojo stood nearby, watching you with a mixture of amusement and something else—something you couldn’t quite place.

“You’re a fast learner,” he said, offering you a hand.

You took it, allowing him to pull you to your feet. “Well, I don’t plan on being stuck here forever, so I might as well make use of the time.”

Gojo’s grip tightened slightly before he let go, his expression unreadable. “Right. Getting you back to your world.”

There was an unspoken tension between the two of you, but you pushed it aside, focusing on the bigger picture. Gojo had been helping you, but there was still so much you didn’t understand. About this world. About the curse that brought you here.

About him.

That evening, you found yourself sitting outside, staring up at the sky. The stars looked different here, even though you knew it was still Earth. Everything felt foreign, yet oddly familiar at the same time.

“You know,” a voice said behind you, “I used to do that a lot too.”

You turned to see Gojo standing a few feet away, his blindfold still in place but his head tilted up toward the stars.

“Do what?” you asked.

“Stare at the sky,” he replied, walking over to sit next to you. “When I was younger, I’d look up at the stars and wonder if there was something more. Something beyond all this.”

His words surprised you. Gojo rarely talked about himself, always deflecting with jokes or sarcasm. But tonight, there was a vulnerability in his voice that caught you off guard.

“And what did you find?” you asked, your curiosity piqued.

Gojo smiled, but it wasn’t his usual smirk. “I found that no matter how far you look, the only thing that matters is the world right in front of you.”

His words lingered in the air, and for the first time since you’d arrived in this world, you felt a sense of connection. Not just to this place, but to him.

You turned back to the sky, your heart heavy with the weight of his statement. “I don’t belong here, Gojo. My world…it needs me.”

Gojo was silent for a moment before he finally spoke. “I know. But that doesn’t mean you can’t live in this one for a while.”

The two of you sat in silence after that, the unspoken tension between you growing stronger with each passing second. You knew you had to leave. You had to get back to your world, your responsibilities. But as you sat there next to Gojo, you couldn’t help but wonder if leaving this world might be harder than you thought.

Move Fast and Break Things

(M/M, horror/dark romance, 6100 words. A mercenary is hired to rescue a group of hostages from a tech billionaire's personal cult.)

“Is the idea to lay low and blend in?” Corinne dropped into a plastic patio chair across from him. “Because I’m pretty sure you’re the only guy within ten miles under the age of a hundred.”

“This is where people go to retire,” Victor replied. “I’m retired.”

“You’re thirty-four. Men your age don’t retire. They’re just unemployed.”

Corinne didn’t order anything; after years of observation, Victor had determined she subsisted entirely on mineral water, air, and spite. She drew a tablet from her shoulder bag and stabbed at its screen with fingers like spiders’ legs. “What do you know about Cameron Spalding?”

“Not much.”

Corinne slid the tablet across the table. She’d always possessed a sense of the theatric that lent itself well to manila folders and grainy photo printouts, severely undercut by the relentless march of technology. On the screen was a photo of a middle-aged man with an air of carefully cultivated dishevelment: Cameron Spalding, American citizen, 47 years old. Net worth somewhere in the billions.

“Tech guy?” Victor guessed.

“On the financial side. Brought his trust fund in on a few ventures that paid off big.” Corinne propped her elbows on the table and leaned forward. “Spalding’s getting weird. Last year, he bought an acreage out in the Rockies and started hiring armed guards. Stayed pretty quiet until recently.”

She was waiting for Victor to ask what happened. He didn’t, just to annoy her.

Corinne huffed, and continued: “A van full of civilians on a camping trip went missing a few weeks ago. Once someone got around to tracking the GPS, it turned up at the edge of Spalding’s little mountain fortress.”

“Why are you talking to me about it?”

“Spalding has friends in D.C.,” Corinne said. “Those friends are pretty reluctant to call the cops on their nice, wealthy, all-American pal Cameron Spalding. Meanwhile, it turns out one of the missing civilians is Skylar Cantrell.”

“As in Cantrell Energy?”

“Yep. Emmett Cantrell is very motivated to get his granddaughter back.”

The Hunter Games: Part One

Pairing: Dean Winchester x Female!Reader

Word Count: ~2.2k

Warnings: canon angst and violence, extra angst

Summary: Sam and Dean need Metatron thinking he has all the answers to the Mark of Cain. He's a giant bug that you'd love nothing more than to squish.

Season Ten Masterlist

Author’s Note: I do not own anything from Supernatural. All credit goes to their respective owners. I love seeing any and all comments <3

x

Dean hasn't left his room in two days. All he can do is sit in bed and think about both what he did to Randy and his men. Granted, you did the killing with him but this power scares him. It scared him when he first took the Mark and it terrifies him now. He's holding a picture of you and the kids and a drop of water splashes onto the glass.

He has no clue where his kids are but he hopes that they're okay. Wherever they are has to be better than being here.

He sighs and wipes his face clean of tears. When he runs into you, he doesn't want any hint that he's been crying. You'll become brutal and feed off the negative energy. He leaves his room and heads to the library where Sam and Cas are talking.

"She barely speaks to me," Cas sighs, sad about Claire. "She's like a wounded animal, just watching me."

"Look, you tried to do the right thing that night. You did. All Randy did was use Claire."

"She thought he was kind. For that, she loved him. It shows how little kindness was in her life. Whatever Randy did, he didn't deserve--"

"I know," Sam cuts him off. "Dean and Y/N have had to kill before, but that was--"

Okay, Dean has had enough eavesdropping.

"That was what?" Dean asks while walking into the library. "Call it what you want but that was a massacre. There was a time I was a hunter, not a stone-cold killer." Sam and Cas look at each other. "You can say it. You're not wrong. I crossed the line."

God, Dean can be so emotional sometimes. You're standing in the war room behind the wall so that they can't see you, but you can hear everything they're saying.

"This thing has got to go, and it has to be gone from Y/N, too. She did most of the killing. She was more brutal than I was. I can see she enjoyed it more than I did. We have to get rid of it."

You touch the spot where your Mark is in thought. You don't want it gone. You like the power it gives you. You'll kill a lot of people if they even think about taking this from you.

"That won't be easy," Cas says.

"Then burn it off! Cut it off! I don't care!"

"It's more than just a physical thing. It will take a very powerful force to remove the effect."

"Dean, we have been through the lore. There's nothing on how to remove it."

You smirk. You have to make sure it stays that way.

"This reaches back to the time of creation," Cas explains. "It may pre-date the lore. If we had the demon tablet, maybe, but it's missing." Sam and Dean look defeated so Cas tries to think of a different way to get information. "There may be another way."

"What?"

"You're not going to like it."

"When do I ever? What is it?" Dean sighs.

"We need Metatron."

"That asshat?" you scoff and walk into the library. "You want to bring the man who killed my husband into our lives again?" You smirk. "I might just kill him."

"You're not doing anything," Dean glares. "Sam and Cas are going to get him. You're staying here with me."

"Boo. You're boring," you roll your eyes.

The entrance to Heaven must not be far since they weren't gone for a long time. They came back with the most hated angel and placed him in the dungeon. He hasn't seen you or Dean yet, and you can only assume Sam is waiting for a dramatic moment to bring you two in.

"Now you can't put me in here. You rented out my room."

"Lovely room," Metatron grins. "It's where you bring the kinky chicks, am I right?"

"I'll ask the questions here." Sam puts angelic chains around Metatron to keep him there so he can't leave. Not that he wants to. He wants to see what will happen. "Your only job is to provide information."

"Well, information does happen to be a specialty. I've got about two billion fun facts up here," he points to his temple to indicate his brain. "Of course, whether I choose to cough one up or not is another matter."

"We need to know how to remove the Mark of Cain from Dean and Y/N."

"What? They're back? Because of the Mark? So, he's a demon?"

"No."

"Okay, what then?" Sam looks troubled which shows just how worried he is. "What, did he kill a human or something?" Sam crosses his arms and glares at him. "He's gone nuclear! Total, foaming-at-the-mouth, balls-out-maniac, nuclear! What about Y/N? What happens to a witch who takes on the Mark? Has she died yet?"

"Do you know how to remove it?"

"Maybe, but here's the thing. If you expect any help out of me, you keep that crazy brother of yours and your witch on a short leash."

"Buddy, I don't care what happens to you. You killed my brother," Sam glares.

Sam moves out of the way and that's when you and Dean walk into the room. Metatron is kind of scared but he tries to hold his composure. He looks you up and down and looks as if he is analyzing you.

"You don't have your magic anymore. You're soulless."

"You want to know the best thing about being soulless?" you ask and walk to the metal table with torture devices on it. You pick up the shiny angel blade and twirl it in your hands. "I can do this and not give a single fuck about it."

You pull your arm back and fling the blade at Metaron, grinning when it sticks into his shoulder. He can't go anywhere with being chains and all, but he convulses in his chair as he yells out in pain. Dean and Sam immediately go to you to hold you back otherwise you'd have done more damage. Dean holds you back while you use all your strength to get him off you.

"Let me go!" you scream. "Let me kill him!"

Metatron stares at you with fearful eyes but Dean removes you from the dungeon altogether. You're unhinged and he doesn't know what you're capable of.

"Keep her the hell away from me," Metatron cries out in pain when Sam yanks out the angel blade. "She's fucking psycho!"

"You know what, screw the Mark. Let's just kill him," Dean says.

"Boy, you two really are a mess. Who knew the Mark was so toxic? Well, I did." He looks at Dean. "It's going to own you sooner than later. It's already owned her."

"How do we get rid of it?" Sam asks.

"What, just like that, social hour's over?"

"Yes, so unless you'd like me to bring Y/N back in, I suggest you start talking."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa. Hold on there, badass! Lighten up! Why do you just assume I'm not gonna be helpful?"

"You're a coward and a dick," Dean glares.

"But I'm your dick." Metatron ignores the coward part. "I have a special place in my non-heart for you three. I'd be tickled to help you pop this biblical zit. To do it, you are gonna need one specific thing. Your old bud--the First Blade."

"What?"

"As I said before, life is a bitch."

Sam and Dean leave the dungeon and you kick yourself off the wall when you see them.

"Is he dead? If not, can I kill him?"

"No," Dean says. You three walk to the library to speak in private. "I think we should get the blade."

"That is the single worst idea I've ever heard," Sam argues. "You two just whacked a whole house full of people, and that's with the Blade nowhere around. Now you wanna be in actual contact with it?"

"We don't know that I have to be in contact with it. All we know is that we need it."

"No, all we know is he says we need it. We don't even know what he wants us to do with it."

"One step at a time, alright? We play it safe, we learn whatever the spell is, and how it works, and we keep the Blade out of our hands."

"I agree with him. We need the blade," you say.

"Are you sure this isn't the Mark making you want the damn thing?" Dean takes out his phone. "I mean, why would we trust anything Metatron says?"

"I don't trust him."

"You don't tru--then what are you doing?"

"What's his game if he is lying? The Blade without me is useless. The Blade with me is trouble for him."

Dean makes a call and places the phone to his ear.

"What does he want?"

"I don't know, but if we weren't willing to take a shot, then what was the point of bringing him here?"

"Do you have a better idea?" you ask Sam who just sighs.

"Squirrel," Crowley answers over speakerphone. "It's been a while. Back to your former self?"

"Crowley. We need to meet ASAP."

"Where?"

"Somewhere in town. I'll text you." Dean hangs up. "Let Metatron sweat. He's not going anywhere. Come on."

Sam and Dean are forcing you to go with them because they don't trust you alone with Metatron knowing you might kill him. Plus, Cas is there to make sure he doesn't go anywhere. If Metatron has taught you anything is that he's scrappy. Crowley took twenty minutes to meet up with you but he came alone per Dean's instruction. Not like Crowley would have anyone with him.

"I need you to get the Blade. We might have a way to get the Mark off Y/N and Dean." Crowley is stunned into silence. "Really, Crowley? Radio silence? Say something."

"You want me to do what?"

"We need you to get the Blade."

"I don't think so."

"You don't have to give the thing to me or Y/N."

"No thanks."

"You're not listening. Get it but hold onto it until we need it."

"Moose, you're the sane one right now. Are you on board with this?" Sam nods. "You're fucking insane. You want me to procure the most dangerous weapon on the planet for Dean and Y/N Winchester, the two people who go mental every time they touch it! I thought you'd wanna go for a beer or catch a film."

"If this plan works--"

"It's not a plan," Crowley cuts Sam off. "It's a probable death sentence for me and my kind."

"If it works, it's better for you. Look, when the Mark is gone, the Blade can't operate. Win-win."

"It can't operate. It's hidden."

"Okay, the Blade might be powered down, but the Mark isn't. I'm doing everything I can to keep it together."

"Yeah, you're not really doing a good job at that. You're kind of pathetic," you say to Dean.

Dean chooses to ignore your hurtful jab.

"You think the body count is high now? Just wait. We're only going to get worse. We need the blade. We figure you stashed it somewhere far away."

"Damn right. It's in a crypt with my bones."

"Go get them."

"I hate Guam this time of year," Crowley sighs and disappears.

You three head back to the Bunker where Cas is in the library. Dean and Sam inform him what's going on but the angel isn't too fond of the plan.

"The First Blade is back in play and Crowley is the one getting it? I don't mean to be an alarmist, but you--"

"Save the lecture, Cas. When we screw ourselves we like to go whole big."

"This would be the Crowley who let the Blade turn Dean into a demon?"

"We kind of don't have a choice, okay? If we don't do this, I'm down the rabbit hole. Hear evil, see evil, do evil. The trifecta."

"I don't mind that," you smirk.

"Cas, look. Let us worry about this. You've got enough on your plate with Claire," Sam says.

"Trouble in paradise?" you ask.

"Claire is gone."

"Gone where?"

"I don't know, I should have stopped her, but I am certain that she is destined for more trouble and disappointment. She is so... so full of rage."

"Listen, man, if I could make it better I would."

"It's actually why I'm here. I was hoping you might reach out to her."

"Me?" Dean asks, surprised.

"Yes.

"I'm probably the last person she would wanna hear from."

"I thought there would be a connection. From one extremely messed up human to another, you could explain why you murdered her only friend."

"Oh, when you put it like that, okay," Dean says sarcastically.

"All I know is that she won't talk to me. I thought if she understood the kind of man Randy was and the danger she was in, she might... I don't know."

"What the hell, why not? Long shots seem to be the theme around here. I'm gonna go make a sandwich."

"I'll text you her number."

Dean leaves the room to make himself a sandwich in the kitchen, and you watch him leave with a suspicious look.

"You need to let Claire go. She doesn't want you in her life. Have you thought that by helping her, you're hurting her? You stole her dad from her. She hates you," you smirk and look at Cas.

"Why are you so calm about this? We're on a mission to get rid of the Mark. I'm not stupid. I know you want it," Sam says.

"Mmm, got me all figured out, don't you?" You get up and stalk over to Sam who shrinks back into his seat. "I'd love nothing more than the ram an angel blade into his heart. Do you know what's stopping me?" You point to the thing on your neck. "This because, apparently, I need babysitting. Putting this thing on me might have been the best thing you ever did because I would have killed you in your sleep already. Don't mistake my calmness for not wanting someone dead."

Dean hears the threat you gave Sam as he is making himself a sandwich. He sets the ingredients down when he gets a blinding headache. He bends over, rests his elbows on the kitchen island, and puts his head in his hands.

The Doting Love Story's Female Supporting Role Has Quit - 19

Chapter 19: There Was No Trace of Humanity in Those Eyes

Nian Chaoxi saw her own death.

She stood in Kunlong Abyss with a sword in hand, her pale clothes dyed red by blood. She could feel that it was her own blood, but because the bleeding was too heavy, she couldn't tell where she was wounded.

She had never suffered such a serious injury or lost so much blood since she was a child.

Her sword was full of notches and was almost unusable, but she still held it.

The dark dragon lifted its huge head out from Kunlong Abyss. The seal under the Abyss was almost useless to restrain it. The bloodshot eyes of the mammoth dragon looked at her as if it were looking at an insect that didn't know its own limitations. Demonic energy so thick it was practically a physical substance danced around it.

Nian Chaoxi raised her head, and everywhere she looked that dark demonic energy densely covered the sky and Yuejian City both.

It should have been a full-moon night, but it was so dark that not a single beam of moonlight could be seen.

The massive dragon stared at her maliciously, and demonic energy arose from it, almost wrapping her up completely, making her unable to move or breathe.

The dark dragon was a vicious hunter who enjoyed watching his prey despair. He had seen enough of her struggles and the fear of death in her heart, so he prepared to give her a fatal blow.

But before that, it still said maliciously: "The so-called daughter of the God of War is nothing more than this."

Nian Chaoxi suddenly raised her head and sneered, "You are afraid of my father."

The evil thoughts surrounding her suddenly became agitated, and the dark dragon almost roared, "What is there to fear! He has been dead for more than 60 years. Now, his only daughter is in my hands, and I can kill you at any time!"

Nian Chaoxi wiped the blood around her eyes and laughed: "You are not afraid of him? Then why do you still find it hard to let it go?"

The dark dragon was enraged and attacked with its huge claws, but suddenly stopped when it was about to touch her.

It suddenly realized something and sneered, "You want me to give you a quick death? Don't worry, I won't let you die so easily."

Its voice was filled with demonic energy. Its huge head approached her and it said maliciously, "In order to get them out safely, you risked your life to hold me back. How great! How touching! But for what? You are here gravely injured and dying, and none of them came back to help you. Hahahahaha, little girl, how does it feel to die alone and abandoned by your comrades?"

Nian Chaoxi looked dazed for a moment, and the scenes that occured before she came to Kunlong Abyss gradually appeared in her mind.

Wu Yan entered Kunlong Abyss for the stone tablet left by her father and accidentally triggered the seal, but she didn't know that the young lord of Hexia City who manipulated her into entering Kunlong Abyss was actually possessed by a demon. She carried the seeds of demonic energy sown by the young city lord in her body, and she brought those seeds into Kunlong Abyss.

The moment she entered the Abyss, the seeds of demonic energy had already taken root here, nourishing the sealed dark dragon.

But this time, Nian Chaoxi did not arrive in time like her real self. When she arrived, the seal was already half broken.

She was forced to use blood magic to seal the dark dragon again.

After using the blood technique, her body quickly deteriorated and she was forced to stay in the medicine house to recuperate.

During the time when she was recovering from her injuries, Mu Yunzhi and his men confined Wu Yan, who had caused such a big disaster, but they did not reveal to the outside world who was to blame for the dark dragon almost breaking the seal in Kunlong Abyss that day.

So, during the period when she was seriously ill, rumors grew wildly like weeds.

——Nian Chaoxi's strength was not enough, so the dark dragon almost broke the seal and escaped. Now, she was even forced to recuperate because of re-sealing the dark dragon.

Nian Chaoxi, who had just been able to stand up, got very angry when she heard such rumors.

But that's all.

Before she had the time to demand an explanation, the demonic energy in Kunlong Abyss had already matured and grown stronger. The dark dragon used this demonic energy to break through the seal that was in jeopardy due to Nian Chaoxi's haste.

At the same time, the demonic energy in Kunlong Abyss and the evil thoughts coming from nowhere outside the city intertwined together, covering the entire Yuejian City overnight, forming a barrier that no one could break. Everyone was trapped inside the barrier.

Outside the barrier, Fentian, the only one of the Twelve Arch-Demons to escape from her father's hands, and now the Demon Lord, led thousands of demons to besiege the city.

There was the Demon Lord Fentian outside and a dark dragon breaking the seal inside.

The entire city was in danger.

At that time, Nian Chaoxi's body was completely broken because she tried to seal the dark dragon with blood magic again. She was like a teacup with a huge hole in it. Her life force was rapidly fading away, and she was already dying.

She was very clearly aware at that time that Yuejian City could not be saved.

And just as she thought, Demon Lord Fentian was the first to break into the city.

On that day, Yuejian City was defeated, the blood of mortals flowed like a river, and countless cultivators died in the battle.

Finally, Mu Yunzhi and his men used the City Lord's Mansion as a barrier to temporarily block the demon army.

Nian Chaoxi knew that they would not be able to hold out for long. She also knew that with the current state of her body, not only would they not be able to take her to escape, she would even become a burden to everyone.

At the same time, there were unusual movements in Kunlong Abyss. Nian Chaoxi knew that the dark dragon was about to take action. Once it did, they would not be able to defend themselves.

She propped herself up and sat in front of the dressing table, thinking for a moment, then picked up her sword in one hand and a few talismans her father had left her in the other.

Each of those talismans contained the full force of the God of War, and when worn on the body, it would be triggered when encountering deadly danger.

If they can't defend it, then they can only escape, but if they have these talismans, the chances of escape will be greater.

She brought the talismans to the main courtyard, wanting to see Mu Yunzhi again, and then let them leave as soon as possible with the talismans.

But she didn't see Mu Yunzhi, she only saw Wu Yan outside the door. Wu Yan said that Mu Yunzhi was still discussing countermeasures with others to prepare to meet the enemy.

Nian Chaoxi handed the things to Wu Yan and told her to have them escape as soon as possible with the talismans.

Wu Yan asked, "What about you? Where are you going?"

Nian Chaoxi thought about it and said, "Take Yan'er with you to escape."

Then she took her sword and went to Kunlong Abyss.

At least she has the blood seal and can use the blood magic technique once more. If there was anyone in Yuejian City who can hold off the dark dragon for a while, it was her.

If the dark dragon finds this place, they won't even have a chance to escape.

So she went to Kunlong Abyss.

Nian Chaoxi suddenly opened her eyes wide and looked at the dark dragon in front of her.

The dark dragon sneered and said, "You have sealed me for more than sixty years, and this is the fate that befalls you!"

The next moment, her hands and feet were broken and she was thrown into the host of demonic beasts transformed by evil energy.

Ten thousand demonic beasts feasted upon her and she died in pain.

She "watched" the whole process from the perspective of a bystander, and only now did she suddenly understand what was reality and what was an illusion.

That's not the real her.

But even so, watching "herself" being devoured by thousands of monsters, the chilling feeling on her spine almost made Nian Chaoxi feel the same pain.

However, this scene, which was like a dream or an illusion, as if she had been pulled into the sea of ​​memories by the dark dragon, had not ended.

After "her" death, Nian Chaoxi saw from a bystander's perspective what happened after she handed the talisman to Wu Yan.

She was racking her brains thinking about how to help them escape successfully, while the other three were discussing how to protect Wu Yan, who had the weakest skills, and ensure her safety.

Zong Shu asked, "What about Xixi?"

Mu Yunzhi was silent for a moment then said, "I will stay and die with her. This is what I promised my uncle. You take Wu Yan away."

Everyone knew her current physical condition, and everyone knew that she wouldn't live long. It may be a month or two, or a day or two, or she may not even survive on the way to death.

Then everyone fell silent, and it was unclear whether they were feeling burdened or sad.

Nian Chaoxi also watched in silence, but she knew in her heart that this was already a sign of them giving up on her.

But there wasn't much emotion in her heart.

Then she saw what happened after her death.

The sections and paragraphs flashed by quickly like fragments of a novel.

She saw that Wu Yan, who had received the talismans from her, for some reason, did not tell anyone that the talismans came from her, nor did she tell anyone that she had gone to Kunlong Abyss.

So those who were rescued all thought that Wu Yan was their savior, and because they couldn't find a trace of Nian Chaoxi, not even her corpse, many people secretly believed that she had deserted the battlefield.

She saw Mu Yunzhi, who had claimed that he intended to die with her, was now beside Wu Yan.

She saw the God of War's Manual appear inexplicably, attracting the greed of the world.

She saw her ex-fiancé stir up trouble and obtain the God of War's Manual, and several years later, he finally became a God of War.

At that time, he and Wu Yan got married. At the wedding, everyone called Wu Yan the daughter of the God of War.

When talking about her, probably only a few people still remember her "desertion from the battlefield".

And all of these were squeezed into a short chapter of the novel she transmigrated into, from birth to death, and ended hastily.

That was her entire role in that novel, a supporting role who died in one chapter.

Nian Chaoxi once wanted to know very much how she died, but now that she knew, she just wanted to curse God.

She never expected that she would suddenly see the whole story of the novel at this moment.

As a result, Nian Chaoxi woke up alive with agitation in her heart.

After regaining consciousness, she felt something very hard, as if she was lying on a slab of stone. When she opened her eyes, the sky was pitch black without a trace of light.

Overhead, demonic energies were surging.

Nian Chaoxi was startled and stood up suddenly.

Everywhere she looked, demonic energy enveloped all of Yuejian City, almost identical to what she had seen in her dream just now.

A sentence appeared in Nian Chaoxi's mind.

The city was surrounded by demons.

However, it was still almost ten days away from the time when the siege of Ten Thousand Demons actually begins in the novel!

Why did it happen so suddenly? Was it because she went to Kunlong Abyss in advance? Or was it because she discovered the abnormality of Kunlong Abyss in time and re-sealed the dark dragon?

Nian Chaoxi didn't know why.

But now didn't seem to be the time for her to think about this.

She didn't notice it when she first stood up, but now she suddenly realized there was the strong smell of blood in her nose. At the same time, she heard heavy, beast-like breathing in her ears.

It was very dangerous.

Nian Chaoxi was startled and subconsciously took two steps back, then looked towards the place where the sound came from. At the same time, she remembered Yan Weixing was clearly there when she was lost consciousness. Why didn't she see him now? Did something happen to him?

As soon as this thought came to mind, a thick pool of blood appeared within her sight. On top of the blood, countless severed demon remains were scattered everywhere, almost forming a small hill.

Atop the hill, a man was half-kneeling, holding a sword.

Nian Chaoxi's eyes suddenly widened.

Yan Weixing!

His dark robe was soaked in blood, making it heavy and sticky. His head was lowered slightly and his expression could not be seen, but he was panting and growling like a wild beast.

Suddenly, he looked up.

There was no trace of humanity in those eyes.

Eventuality Pt.2

1, 3+4, 5, 6

NEW CHAPTER JUST DROPPED!! FT. Jealous Konig (if you squint) so you’re welcome. As always cross-posted on Ao3 @WeaperReaper, check that out for quicker updates.

CW: Same as before in Part 1. Just more plot here really. No NSFW

Hot water never felt so good. My muscles eased as it glided over my shoulders and down my back, the steam from the shower drifted up and over the flimsy curtain that separated the tiny tiled space from the rest of the bathroom. It had been my plan to clean off the sweat and grime from yesterday the moment I got into my room last night, however the moment my head hit the pillow on the cot I was out.

It was a much needed rest, and though I really only got a handful of hours sleep, I wasn’t going to start complaining. The room I had been set up in was nice. Assumedly slightly larger than the others, with being at the very end of the hallway. There was a steel desk welded to the wall where another bunk would have sat normally, and I’m sure it made for a good place to study. Although with how lacking this particular home base was with any medical professionals- I doubt I’d be doing more studying then I would actual practice.

I unloaded only the basics this morning, never really making a habit of unpacking or filling out a space for too long. I quickly towel dried and dressed myself in the uniform I laid on the neatly made bed. Classical tactical pants and thick mock neck combo. My medic badge from my jacket flashed brightly against the rest of the dark colors, and I ran a hand through my hair to push it from my face as it dried.

The tablet I also took out earlier dinged from it’s place on the desk, I threw my boots on before I made my way over, sitting on the creaky metal chair. It scraped against the stone floor as I scooted it closer.

A new message popped up in my dashboard. It was an email confirmation for the transferring of my records from my old Sergeant to Captain Price, and a note that I’d be working solely under his jurisdiction. When I tapped on his icon however, nothing but an error message showed up. It was almost as if he wasn’t in the system. I went to the search bar and typed in Johnny, but no one stationed this far east came up.

I tried ‘Soap’. Nothing.

My fingers itched over the keys.

‘Konig’ I typed, unsure at first how to even spell it. Yet again, nothing. A KORTAC tag popped up for a moment, but being another national division I didn’t have clearance for any of that information.

I sighed, how was I meant to treat them if I didn’t know anything about them? If there were no files on anyone I’d met so far. I racked my brain to try to think of any other names I might have heard yesterday but nothing else came to mind. I glanced at the clock- 04:03.

“Well, since I’m up already..” I mumbled out loud to myself and turned to strap my pack on, shoving the tablet inside the bigger pocket. Maybe Soap would have more information, I could ask him to schedule a briefing with Captain Price and I. Something I was surprised I’d heard nothing about since landing, surely if they requested someone they’d at least fill them in.

Pulling my door shut and entering the hall, I was even more surprised to see it packed and bustling with early morning energy. Men had their doors open and some were half dressed- yelling across the hall at someone else. I did my best to keep my eyes mostly to the ground, and thankfully, was able to leave the testosterone fueled building without bumping in to anyone.

That wasn’t however- the case as I swung the double doors open to the outside. I immediately ran into the side of another soldier, dressed in all black and a hoodie that’s seen better days. He had a balaclava on also, the warmth from his breath fogged up into the air as he huffed from my intrusion. His snapped to mine and my breath hitched in my throat- if looks could kill.

His mask had been altered, a white skull painted onto the front made him even more intimidating.

Suddenly I forgot how words worked.

“Mack!” Someone shouted and I was almost too afraid to drag my eyes away from the behemoth in front of me.

“Mack!” The voice said again and a large hand cupped my shoulder, “Oi lass- I thought you wouldn’t join us.”

“Us?” I was able to meakly force out, my gaze finally settling over Soap, dressed in track pants and an almost matching hoodie. Must have been military issued.

His big dorky smile found it’s way up onto his cut face again. “Aye, I see you’ve met ghost.” He turned the both of us back to the brick wall of a man from before and punched at his shoulder lightly.

“C’mon now, don’t scare away the newbies.” Soap teased and I felt incredibly small between them, eyes wide in the relative darkness.

This ‘Ghost’ just gawffed in response to him, turning away slightly to avoid either of our faces.

Soap turned back to me, “You’re not runnin in that are ye?” He asked, motioning to my boots and tactical pants- filled to the brim with gaze, electrical tape, and whatever other medical supplies I could fit. I shook my head at him.

“Uh no,” I spoke, finding my voice once again. It was slightly scratchier from the morning cold. “I was hoping to do some inventory in the infirmary, y’know get stock of everything or whatever.”

He nodded but still let out a laugh. “Not here a full 24 hours yet and ye ‘already thinking too much. I know what you need.” He handed me a bottle that he pulled out of nowhere, emptied of its original water, and re-filled with some chunky looking slush.

I scoffed, the man to my right suddenly forgotten in the background. “There’s no way I’m drinking that.” I was 100% sure whatever was in that was in no shape healthy.

“Suit yer’self.” He said and took a swig of the concoction, letting out a forced sounding ‘Ahhh’ after his swallow. I let a laugh escape me and he eyed me from the side, turning to face ghost.

“Well if you don’t want to join us then maybe you’ll play score keeper. Here.” He handed me a small black notebook, opened to a page scribbled with tally marks. One side labeled ‘SOAP’ and the other ‘GHOST’ with a poorly drawn skull next to it.

“First to make a lap around the entire base, and touch that center pole there,” He pointed to a floodlight that sat in the middle of the courtyard between both buildings. “Wins.” He turned to Ghost who was already stretching one leg out behind him- getting into a sprint position.

“GO!” He shouted.

They both took off in a full sprint and veered right some, ghost reached out to give soap a push that made him stumbled slightly, giving ghost the lead as they wrapped around a building out of sight. Yells and other Scottish noises could be heard echoing through space and bouncing off walls. I let a smile fall on my face as I looked back down at the notebook.

Not wanting to peer too much into his privacy I thumbed over the random doodles and put a pen in the crack of the page, saving my place as I closed the book in my hand.

Some other men took after them as well, and that’s when I noticed the small crowd from inside slowly made their way out onto the yard. Doing random warmups and exercises, but mainly trying to keep up with the race I’m sure.

It was cute.

And it probably boosted morale too, which was always a good thing. My hopes for this place slowly began to rise as I looked around some more. I shifted from my spot slightly before I caught something in the back corner of my eye. A familiar figure stood hunched slightly, resting against the corner of the main building, he had his eyes at his hands, a small book similar to Soaps, and was scribbling something down.

He glanced up as I approached him, myself not even half-aware that I was until we made eye contact. He snapped his book closed and stood up straighter- easing his hand that held the book behind him. My eyes followed the movement.

“Were you drawing?” I asked, where I found the courage to randomly strike up conversation I’ve no idea.

His fingers thumbed the crease of his book and as he hesitated answering. Crap, was I pushing too much?

“Yes.” He spoke out after another moment.

“Cool.” I muttered, feeling like a child at the playground, feeblishly attempting to make friends. I didn’t meet his eyes again, but instead settled at looking at the mask he wore. I hadn’t noticed it yesterday, but there were bleach stains just under the holes that kind of represented tears.

What was everyone’s deal with wearing scary masks?

“How’s your cut doing?” I glanced up at him and his eyes were already on mine, they widened slightly when I spoke- like I had caught him off guard. I tried to contort my face into a pleasant look.

He stood unblinkingly at me for a moment. Then his eyes shifted up behind me and hardened ever so slightly. Stomps grew loud and rapidly approached us. I turned to see as Soap and Ghost made their way across the courtyard in full sprint. Soap moved with an ease and swiftness that I was instantly jealous of. Ghost was just a hair behind him, arm and fingers outstretched. He grabbed onto Soap by the back of his hoodie and pulled just hard enough to give him forward momentum to touch the base of the lamp just before Soap could.

The Scott swung around as they came to a stop and immediately turned to me.

“Did you see that!” His eyes were wide and he looked astonished.

Ghost joined him at his side and they slowly made their way towards where I stood with Konig.

“Bile yer hide!” He shouted followed by some more Scottish noises and pushed at Ghost in a friendly but competitive way. “You cheated.”

“You never set any rules, Jonny.” Ghost’s voice was gravely and he was slightly out of breath. Steam rose off the both of them in a comical way as they both huffed. I handed soap back his notebook when they got within arms distance.

“And you, lass? You saw what he did right?” Soap pleaded in a thick accent and looked almost childlike with big puppy eyes. I raised my hands up in defeat.

“Unfortunately I was talking to Konig here, so I didn’t see much.” I held in a laugh as he responded with another Scottish phrase that probably didn't translate over too pretty.

His eyes rose to the man behind me, and I could feel his larger frame against my back. His body heat wrapped itself around me and I had to stop the shiver that ran up my spine. Something in Soaps demeanor seemed to change slightly as the two of them made eye contact with the other, and he turned to tap Ghost out, their feud dead now. He signaled that they should go inside with a tip of his head. I watch slightly confused as the two of them turned and made their way back to the barracks- soap mingling a little with the others on his way past.

“Oh wait-“ I almost shouted, but the two of them were already halfway across the area, their larger bodies taking two of my strides in one. My hand hung in the air awkwardly. Damnit, I meant to ask him about Price.

I sighed and Konig cleared his throat behind me, reminding me of his presence. I turned to face him and I hadn’t realized how close we were standing together until I had to crane my head back in order to find his eyes. Which were already on mine, naturally.

I let in a sharp inhale, the cold and crisp air bit at the inside of my throat. God it gets cold here at night. The sky was brighter now then when I first came out though, and eventually the sun would rise and heat up the dunes again. Something I wasn’t particularly looking forward to, so I tried to enjoy the cool air while I could.

Konig cleared his throat again awkwardly and I realized I was staring at him, heat quickly warmed up my face and I moved my line of sight back down to the center of his chest.

“You are close with him?” He asked, a little too seriously to just be a curious question. I took a step back so I didn’t have to bend my neck so much when I looked up at him.

“Who, Soap?”

He nodded, the fabric of the mask shook under his movement.

“Oh no,” I corrected. “I arrived yesterday, that’s the first time I met him. Or well, any of you really.” I looked around, most of the men had started to fill into the main building now. Some came out to sit on the benches to eat their breakfast. Others started training in groups or faux fighting in pairs out in the courtyard.

“It is easy for you to talk, to him.” He said matter-of-factly.

I shook my head and corrected him again, “Not really, I’m not the best for conversation really.” I chuckled. I let out a little ‘hmm’ of conviction when he didn’t respond and gestured over to the entrance doors.

“So shall we take a look at you then?” I asked, he nodded and followed behind me to the room we were in before. The doors squeaked shut after us and I could feel everyone’s eyes on the pair of us, Konig followed so close at my back that I could feel the shift of his gear as he walked. Though I suppose being as tall as he was he drew eyes from everywhere anyway, I did my best to brush it off.

We made out way into the infirmary relatively smoothly after clearing through the cafeteria and other crowded rooms, and settled more comfortably in this room. Just the two of us.

My face heated up again at that thought.

Konig hovered by the door as I went to the desk in the back to unload. Tossing my bag up onto the counter I unzipped it and pulled out various items, trying to distract myself by taking account of what I had brought with me.

I glanced back at him, then in the far corner of the room where there hung a single curtain from the slide on the ceiling, a lonely cot sat behind it. I pointed over to it with my finger, “You don’t have to lock the door again, just have a seat over there I’ll be over in a second.”

I didn’t watch him, but I could hear as he crossed the room in less than three long strides. There was something slightly comforting about how quickly he could move. If I ever needed it, I knew who I’d use as a bodyguard. The bed creaked under his weight as he sat, and I took the chance to glance at him from the corner of my eye. He pulled the curtain closed just enough to block him from view of the door, and tucked the bottom of his mask up into his helmet so that only his lower jaw and neck were exposed. I found myself missing the sight of his lips.

I shook my head to get rid of those thoughts and his eyes drew back to mine to follow every movement I made.

The room was silent as I pulled my tablet out, opening an empty file and labeling it ‘Konig’.

“Since you’re here do you mind if we do a physical? I mean I don’t really know what equipment is here, so you’ll have to bear with me for a bit.” I hovered a pen over the screen and turned to face him slightly, his eyes traced down my body and settled on where my hip rested against the edge of the desk.

He nodded slowly and clasped his hands together in front of him, falling into a gentle slouch. His figure was so tall and built that he was probably used to constantly trying to make himself appear smaller and less intimidating. I appreciated the gesture.

“Good.” I mumbled and his eyes snapped back up to my face. I pulled out another alcohol wipe and approached his side. “Tip your chin up to me please, I’ll change these bandages.”

He did what I asked without resistance, and as my hands cupped his face he was less stiff then he was yesterday. I let a gentle smile find my face, glad I’m capable of creating a soothing environment. I slowly peeled off the old tape and gauze against his body and snapped on some gloves before reapplying new ones. The cut looked significantly better today.

“Y’know I don’t think it’ll even scar, Konig.”

“König.” He corrected softly, his German made it easier for him to pronounce then I could.

“Koo-nick.” I tried again, snipping off small squares of excess tape from his face.

The mask shifted above him as he huffed out through his nose in a little laugh. I thought I could see the faintest tip at the corner of his lips, I wished I could pull up the dark fabric to watch him smile- but I wouldn’t push his boundaries like that. Especially not when it seemed he just started to ease up with me.

“Close,” his voice was soft as he spoke to me, and the little praise sent butterflies straight to my stomach. I removed my hands from his skin and cast my eyes anywhere but his, settling on the tablet I brought over. “König.” He said again. “Do you know any German?” He asked.

I hummed a ‘no’ and sat myself on the little black stool, rolling back over to him, tablet open on my lap in front of me. Now that we were both sitting, he was still taller than me and I went up to just about his shoulders.

He leaned forward, elbows resting on his knees. If I shifted over just slightly, I could brush our legs together.

“It means King.”

“I don’t doubt that.” I said as I made a show to size him up again with my eyes. He shrunk a bit under my gaze, but still relatively hovered over me in a relaxed way.

“So King,” I mused and his eyes lit up at mine, “How tall are you?”

“82 inches.”

A low whistle escaped me and I noticed the more I probed for questions the faster he bounced his boot or wrung his fingers together. After a solid ten minutes or so of recounting his medical history and any procedures he had done, he settled on pulling his tags from under the collar of his shirt. I quickly jotted down his blood type and leaned back with a heavy sigh.

“I think that’s all then.” I mused and his eyes never left my face. I tipped my head up at him and intentionally gave him a bright smile, those bright blue eyes grew wide and snapped across the room, suddenly looking everywhere but mine. I stifled a laugh and rolled back over to the desk about a foot away from where he sat. Glad for some distance as the room seemed to grow warm.

“I hope to take some blood samples later, maybe today or sometime later this week so, don’t go to far okay?” I turned back over to him and crossed my legs up top the other.

He stood and re-settled the mask back over his face like it had been before and nodded. He turned to me just before he reached the door, one hand on the handle.

“I hope you like it here, Maus.” He said in a gentle and promising way, my face flushed and he quickly turned to leave, the door falling shut in his wake.

‘I hope you like it here,’

‘Maus.’ Rang between my ears.

Was I just given a nickname?
