âWade when I said we should watch The Wizard of Oz, I didnât mean that you need to dress up as Dorothy and act out the entire movie!â You exclaimed in the living room, trying your hardest to suppress a laugh as Wade twirls in front of the couch. The blue and white checkered dress swirled in the air as he spun, arms wide out as he threw his head back. In the background, droning on was âSomewhere Over the Rainbow,â to which Wade decided it was the perfect time to lip sync. Days like this are what you cherished most, especially when things were a bit shit all around. The world wasnât as safe as it used to be, but in this little apartment â it was comfort. Solace, everything you all needed to wait out the storm down below.
âYou may not have wanted that, but they did.â Wade lets out nonchalantly, whispering the last part at the brick wall, causing you to look around him. Every so often he would stare off into a hidden camera, like it was The Office, speaking to the âaudienceâ about what was going on. At first it was funny, charming even â but when it got to be quips about you, it was almost instinctive how you needed to roll your eyes. Now? It was just another thing about Wade you admired, how he could keep himself entertained like this and forget how things were outside, there was no judgement but pure love and laughter. Shaking your head with a smile, you sigh out as you stand from the couch, stretching your back. âWhatever you say, Wade.â As you felt your tailbone crack, you smiled softly at the release. It felt nice to get up and walk, to stretch out a bit before engaging more with Wadeâs antics of today. It was endearing to see him doing this â you knew everything was getting to him as well, and you both needed a good laugh. What you silently hoped for though, was for Logan to join the two of you.
It was obvious your feelings for him, Wade called that out the second you both first met. The way your eyes went from thin slits of weariness to full blown hearts was enough to make his head spin â Logan on the other hand seemed to have no effect. But thatâs what he wanted you to think. It had been months since your apartment flooded, causing you to move two floors up with Wade, Logan, Laura and Al. But it had been the best months of your life, creating new friendships and hoping to blossom out of the awkward phase with Logan. A stoic, quiet man who truly needed this â needed a friend â needed to know he was loved. You wanted to help him with that, if only you could get over this little hump of self-doubt. It was a silent battle you faced internally; Rejection scared you and hurt more than anything else â but youâd respect the decision if it happened. The struggle was the worst part of it, how it ate you alive. Wade would always try to help quell it but alas, your mind could be very fickle.
As you made your way into the kitchen, you rounded the counter, back facing towards the living room as you hummed along with the song. Lost in your own little world, you didnât notice when the bedroom door to the left started to slowly open, your head down to face the coffee maker as you stuck your mug underneath, using the hot water for your tea. It wasnât until you saw something sparkling out of the corner of your eye that it caught your attention. You knew Mary Puppins had a flashy little get up, since Wade spent four days bedazzling her suit, but then you remembered Laura had taken her out for a walk a few minutes prior. Cocking your brow, you turn slowly to see what that shine is â not expecting to see what you did. âHoly shit,â you mumble out, your eyes shooting wide open. There was no proper way to react except shocked, your body freezing at the sight.
Logan was home after all, hiding away in his room. But what you didnât realize was that Wade had gotten him to dress up for the movie. Standing there in his gray and black flannel, gray sweatpants, and white socks was your Logan â face covered in silver face paint, sparkling against the orange hued lighting of the kitchen. You stopped to stare at him, admiration making your heart grow as Wade let out a dramatic gasp, his hands coming up to cover his mouth. âRobocop has arrived!â Wade cheered, hoping over the back of the couch and standing on the opposite side of the kitchen. At the comment, Logan growled in Wadeâs direction, sending him straight daggers. âDonât give me that look, Pookie. You know what you signed up for.â
Logan could help but groan as his gaze shifted back towards you; The silvery color making his eyes glow brighter than usual. A soft green, like a meadow on a cloudy day always stared back at you. But today, it was Emerald City. The glints of golden flecks and little silvery tendrils drifted through his irises, causing your heart to race. You didnât mean to gaze so deeply into his eyes, finding your own eyes losing focus the further you delved in. You couldnât tell but Loganâs heart was racing a mile a minute under his shirt, his claws quivering inside his hand. âYouâre taking shine bright like a diamond to a whole new level, Lo.â You let a bright smile cascade over your lips as you looked up at him, tilting your head to the side to admire his application skills. Under all the silver you could see a gentle pink blush creeping up his neck, fanning over the little exposed patch of skin beneath his flannel. It wasnât everyday that Logan blushed â but with you, he couldnât stop. Even at your teasing, he was a mess.
âHis idea.â Logan snickered as he pointed to Wade. âDipshit told me we were all dressing up as characters.â Of course he did, because that is just how Wade is. He always says one thing, then never tells anyone else. In a way you knew he said it for you, knowing this was your favorite movie and all. To have Logan dress up like the tinman was all for you. A simple admission you made not too long ago about how he was your childhood crush; Convincing Logan to dress up as him only seemed right. Wade could tell you both were mutually pining over one another, and he was tired of the will they wonât they. All he knew was that he wanted his two best friends to be together, to be happy; He knew youâd be good for one another. Wade blew Logan a kiss as he spun in his dress, twirling his way through the kitchen and living room.
âWade you dirty dog.â You laugh as you roll your eyes, shifting your focus back to your now freshly brewed tea. Taking the mug away from the coffee machine, you bit your bottom lip as you giggled, nudging Logan with your shoulder. âWhen we need a disco ball for Alâs 70th birthday, we will just strap you to the ceiling and spin you.â You winked in his direction as you slightly raised a brow, indicating that you were joking, but also being a tease. Logan liked when you did that, finding it invigorating how his heart would pound out of his chest. A hearty, sincere laugh slipped from his silvery lips as he narrowed his gaze. Leaning against the countertop, Logan crossed his arms over his eyes, his lips turning up into a challenging smirk. âOh yeah? You think so, beautiful?â He let out without question, tilting his head to the side as he eyed you up and down. He could hear, smell, how hard your heart was racing as he leaned closer, how your palms grew clammy, how your body shivered under his gaze. There was something so primal clawing its way beneath his skin; He wanted all of you, to be the only one to make you feel this way. âI know so!â You shot back without hesitation, trying to keep your cool.
Logan thought it was cute, how hard you were trying to fight yourself off. Trying so hard not to spill the beans or say what was on your mind. It was a game of hardball, and Logan was going to come out on top like always. Huffing with amusement, he placed his hand softly on your shoulder, letting his wade palm graze down your arm, fingers drifting over the expanse of your wrist. Leaning closer to you, only a hairsbreadth away, Logan whispered as he held your hand lovingly. âWell what if IâŚâ  You were so entranced with how he was coming onto you, months of tension finally reaching its peak as the knife cut through it, releasing that hold on you. Closing your eyes as you prepped yourself for what he was about to do next, you pursed your lips instinctively, waiting to feel him on you. Alas, that never came.
In a singular second, Logan roughly pulled you close to him as he rubbed his face all over yours. The burn of his beard across your cheeks made you yelp out, the slippery feel of the face paint flowing over your skin made you laugh. A fit of giggles and playful pushing ignited the room, filtering out the sound of Mary Puppins and Laura coming back from their walk. You couldnât breathe from how hard you were laughing, trying to muster up the energy to speak as Logan held you close to him. Though you felt his touch burning through your clothes, not one of a friendly nature but one of pure passion. The way he gripped your hip with one hand, and the side of your neck with the other. The way his face slid over yours, it was pure love. Your mind was reeling with endless thoughts of what it would be like to be in love with Logan, never realizing how you spoke aloud. âOhmygod, Iâm in love with an adult man-child.â The words fell out before you had anytime to think about it, not realizing what you had said as you fought yourself through the giggle fit. You didnât realize what had come out, until Logan stopped.
The tension in the air was palpable, your heart pounding in your ears as you caught your breath. Logan stopped the ministrations on your face, his grip to your neck and hip growing harder, steadier as his breathing picked up. âIn love!?â Wade and Laura yelled out from the living room, Mary Puppins gave a little bark as well. In that moment you stopped, your eyes growing wide as you panned upwards. âIn love?â Logan asks, his eyes turning from a vibrant green shade to mocha, his pupils blackened. Meeting his gaze, you swallowed back the words Iâm kidding, because in reality you were not. It was out there now, there was no taking it back even if you had tried. There wasnât anything that would make this moment easier to digest, it was all or nothing. âShit.â That was your only response. The movie in the background grew quiet. Laura, Wade, and Mary Puppins stared at you with wide eyes, trying to process it themselves. Al on the other hand sat by the open window and laughed, keeping his head towards the street below.
All you wanted to do was run; Fight or flight kicking in made you want to scream. It wasnât the way you announced it that made you scared, nor nervous â but how Logan was staring at you. His once playful demeanor was now clouded with something unreadable, enough to make tears well in your eyes. At the end of the day, if he didnât feel the same there were no hard feelings, and you both could live with that. But right now, you wanted to be alone, to calm down from the panic rising in your chest. âNo, no running away.â Logan whispered for you, and you only. His hardened grip on your neck moved to gently hold your face, his thumb sweeping against your cheek. He could see the fear in your eyes, the unknowing â he wanted to settle that for you. Logan leaned forth to press his forehead against yours. The switch of Logan gave you whiplash; Usually he wasnât this affectionate with his actions, always keeping to himself, not thinking himself worthy of love. But today, that all changed. âSweetheartâŚdo you mean that?â Loganâs voice broke slightly as he asked, his own eyes welling with tears.
âOf course she does! Sheâs in lov-â Wade began, not even giving you a second to explain yourself. Logan grew tense at hearing him speak. He never pushed his face away from yours as he growled out into the room. âShut the fuck up!â A shiver ran down your spine at the dominance in his voice, your hands instinctively going out to hold onto his hip as you steadied your breathing. âOhhh my god,â was all Wade could respond with as he sunk back into the couch, Laura holding her hand over his mouth so he wouldnât say anything more. It was now or never; Forever hold your peace or tell Logan how you really felt and see where it led from there. Taking a deep breath, you nodded against Loganâs forehead, a shaky breath exhaling from your parted lips. âI do.â The words felt right coming out, there was no line of awkwardness or reluctance to them. It was the truth, and now it was known.
You refused to open your eyes as stare at Logan, hearing the deep inhalation he made at your comment. You knew if you opened your eyes tears would fall, and you were not about to have that. Nothing came to mind on what you could say, nor could you move from where you were planted. Internally you begged someone to say something, to break the silence. Logan mustâve heard your internal thoughts. âFinally, didnât know how long we were going to play that game, sweetheart.â Logan let out, causing you to open your eyes. He extended himself to his full height as he held your face, peering down into your soul with a genuine, loving smile. It was in that moment his words fully clicked inside of your brain, the mutual pining was over. âIâve been in love with you since day one. I could tell you were too, but I didnât want to come on too strong, if you werenât ready. I wanted it to be on your terms, when you felt it was right.â Loganâs word held you tightly, holding you close to show you just how loved you are, how cherished you are, how appreciated you are. You could tell Logan had more he wanted to say but, actions speak louder than words.
Surging forth, you pressed your lips lovingly against Logan, feeling how the world faded around you. The dull, orange lighting of the kitchen burnt out around you. The hum of the coffee maker, fridge, and lights became silent. The only thing that could be heart was your heartbeats, merging into one. Around you swirled endless love and possibilities, flecks of the brightest yellows and blues flowing out like clockwork, binding you two together. This feels so right. Everything felt so right. Logan felt so right. Nothing in life ever felt like this, nothing ever felt meant to be. Only now did you realize, the love you have been waiting your entire life for, finally arrived. In the form of Logan Howlett, The Wolverine. Your hero.

Some Thoughts About Sibyllaâs Cave
Hi! I just wanted to talk about something that nags at me in Winx. (Warning: I might go on a bit.)
When the wizards surrender to the Winx, they take them to Sibylla, and we see them in the next episode, with Dumanâs condition having worsened. Badly. Heâs feverish, moaning, and seems to be delirious. And yetâŚSibylla has him lying on what is basically a slab of stone. I mean, look!
His head is not even supported! So not only does he have some kind of mystery disease, he now probably has neck problems. And back pain. And if he wasnât running a fever, heâd probably be freezing. Could Sibylla not spring for a bed? Or at least a pillow? Something? He looks so uncomfortable, and I feel so bad for him, because heâs already so sick! I wish Sibylla had tried to make him comfortable.
And now onto part twoâŚ
Hereâs the cave the wizards are in. We can see some interesting stuffâŚuncomfortable stone bed, tree that seems to be growing underground (maybe itâs just roots), stone seat thing⌠You know what we canât spot? Anywhere for the other wizards to sleep. Now, maybe they have their own rooms. Maybe this is the Duman cave. Maybe when itâs time to go to sleep the other wizards go to their own caves, with their own ridiculously uncomfortable stone beds. ButâŚI really canât see that being the case. It feels like this is the cave the wizards are staying in. In which caseâŚwhere do they sleep? Are there beds hidden out of shot? Or do they have to sleep on the floor? Which would probably be even more uncomfortable than Dumanâs stone âbedâ. And would make me think a bit less of Sibylla.
Also, are the wizards actually allowed to leave that cave? (This is putting aside the âthey have their own roomsâ theory). We see them come to the throne room (is it a throne room? It has a throne. And itâs a room. Or a cave, I guess. So, throne cave), but theyâre flanked by Rustic Fairies, who are presumably acting as guards. So maybe the wizards are limited to that cave. Does that mean theyâre technically Sibyllaâs prisoners? Or are they her guests? Or just the people she has to keep alive long enough for Morgana to calm down and agree to an unfair trial? (Being judged by the people who have spent the past weeks trying to kill you is in no way, shape or form an impartial court. Not even if Morgana says sheâll judge the wizards âin all fairnessâ. Sheâs biased. Very, very biased. She would not get put on the jury if the wizards were being tried in an actual court of law.)
Oh, and, final thought:
Where is Gantlos? Seriously, where? The Winx have shown up to explain about the supposed âfair trialâ they just fought Nebula to get; shouldnât Gantlos be there for that? Heâs probably just out of the shot, but itâs weird he isnât shown.
Going off the idea that the wizards are allowed to leave that cave, Iâm headcanoning that Gantlos wasnât there because seeing Duman in that state just hurt too much, and he didnât want the Winx to witness him barely managing to not fall apart, so heâs in another bit of the cave desperately trying to keep it together. Or having a breakdown. Possibly having a breakdown. Ogron and Anagan will fill him in on the situation later.
#winx club#wizards of the black circle#winx duman#winx gantlos#Didnât actually plan on about half of that post#I did say I might go on a bit#Sibylla really needs to go to IKEA#Seriously#that bed canât be comfortable!#Honestly#even if the other wizards do have their own rooms#Gantlos would willingly sleep on the floor in Dumanâs room#No way would he leave him alone when heâs so sick#If the Rustic Fairies had an issue with that then good luck moving him#Just thought up the explanation for where Gantlos was#May write a one-shot of that now#What do you think?#Would anyone read that?#Wow#These tags kinda need their own post#Theyâre really long#Winx sibylla#Forgot to add Sibylla to the tags

my entire family goes to bed at 9:30 because i live with fucking old people (im joking. somewhat.) and from then on i have to move around the house quietly. this wouldn't be a problem except that my door is incredibly and uniquely fucked up and nigh impossible to open even remotely quietly
#and it can't be left open because the cat will beeline into my room and make my life hell#every door in my house is absolutely fucking horrible in its own way but my room is really bad#the doorknob is like. dislocated. or just made for a much thicker door because the middle part of it is like 3 cm too long#and i either have to align it carefully or pull on it (makes a very loud sound) and then using a very specific amount of pressure turning#while continuing to pull on it so it won't pop#oh and i can technically open it turning both directions but going right makes it pop so fucking loud it's actually ridiculous#the very unpleasant sound of painted metal on painted metal#kiwifae says shit#my partner of two years is just getting the hang of my bedroom door#my friend came over and literally got stuck in the bathroom cuz she couldn't make the door open again#she literally tried for a few seconds and then just yelled for me đ#that door also pops open randomly sometimes. i do not know why. it didn't use to.#back when the front door was still semi functional i had to fish the literal latch out of the cavity in the lock with a screwdriver cuz my#mom kept slamming the door and misaligning it even though we told her that's what fucks it up#we can only deadbolt that door now. it literally won't close otherwise. (that's how we lost the cat for five days!)#(back when it still semi worked i was the only one who knew how to close it at just the right strength so it would stick but not fall out)#((why isn't there an eye twitch emoji))#but our other outside door exclusively has a deadbolt. that's the only mechanism.#i'm the fucking door wizard in my house and i cannot WAIT to move somewhere where i have functional semi modern door handles#gawd bless i want to kill my fucking landlady

The Monster You Know
Dark!Gojo Satoru x reader
Synopsis: For your own safety, the strongest sorcerer of today kidnaps you.
Word Count: 6.9k
(Warnings: implied masturbation, implied nsfw, implied noncon recording, death of a minor character.....im pretty sure i missed a warning so lemme know any pls)
Instead of waking up in a bed, you find yourself on the floor.
It's not a comfortable spot to sleep in. The carpet is clean, but it's odd because you don't have this type of carpet in your room. Actually, this isn't your room at all.Â
But the panic doesn't really set in until you realize your arms are bound.Â
You don't notice him until he speaks. You're too busy yanking on the metal, pulling your hand as hard as you could. The cuffs don't even budge.Â
"If you keep yanking your arms like that, you might break 'em."Â
He's tall, rivaling the door he just walked through. He looks a couple of years older than you, but his white hair can't be natural, not at his age. His blue eyes are lax. The worst part is how relaxed he looks. He has an eased posture and a pretty smile. He's amused, watching you like youâre a pesky mouse trapped in a bucket.Â
You donât know him. Youâre stuck in an unfamiliar room, chained to the floor, and you donât know this man.Â
Escape isnât possible. So you resort to the next best thing: you plead.Â
âWho are you?â Your voice is light and wavers on every syllable. âWhere-Where am I? Did you bring me here? Please donât-â
âYou always this talkative in the morning?â He dodges your question with a lax grin. âAnyway, uh, sorry about this-â he gestures to your tied-up form â-I would've used a talisman, but those wonât work on you for obvious reasons. The handcuffs arenât too tight, are they?âÂ
He steps closer, and you scream. Itâs shrill, filled with a type of fear that makes your blood freeze because you donât know this man, you donât know where you are, and heâs getting closer.Â
âOkay okay, I get it!â He manages to say over your pleas for help, but he steps back, and itâs enough to quiet your fear. âObviously, you need some more time alone, so Iâm gonna give you a couple more hours. Feel free to take a mint!â He cheerily points to the nightstand.Â
He leaves as quickly as he enters. The door shuts but doesnât lock. Youâd be relieved if you werenât still incapacitated.Â
You look around the room. Nothing of value, nothing that you could reach and grab. Apart from a chair, the only other pieces of furniture were a heavy-looking bed and a bolted-down nightstand. Your kidnapper was certainly meticulous.Â
The restraints have just enough slack for you to lean over. You peer at the nightstand. A plastic bowl, too flimsy to be made into a weapon. It contains wrapped-white candies. You gingerly pick one up.Â
Theyâre sugar-free.Â
He returns to the mints scattered all over the floor.Â
âOkay.â He notes, gracefully stepping over the mess. âClearly, you arenât a fan of peppermint. 'you a wintergreen kindaâ person?âÂ
You donât look at him. Youâve been in the same position you had been in for hours, sitting curled on the floor. By then, your desperation was starting to show through.Â
âPlease just let me go.â You mutter, your voice so low, itâs a miracle he can hear you. âI donât have any money. I have nothing to offer.â
âWell, thatâs good because I donât want your money.â He says. âI know this looks pretty bad, but this is for your sake more than mine.â
You look at him just as he squats down to your height. You shift away. he smiles.
âDo you know what sorcerer's are?âÂ
You blink.Â
âItâs fine if you donât; we all start somewhere, right? A sorcerer is someone who can manipulate cursed energy. Iâm a sorcerer! I donât wanna brag too much, but Iâm pretty good at it.âÂ
He laughs like heâs telling a joke, and you suddenly realize that you were kidnapped by someone who believes heâs a wizard.Â
âGuess youâre still lost, huh? How about I just show you instead?â He points to an ironed-out shirt hanging on a rack. You follow his finger.Â
He didn't move. There was no machinery. The shirt just crinkled by itself before it dropped to the floor.Â
You gape. The man grins.Â
"Pretty amazing, right? That's cursed energy, or, my power if you wanna be less technical."Â
"Cursed energy." You whisper, a repetition of his words rather than any actual understanding. He beams regardless.Â
"Yeah! Well, it's a little more complicated than that, but let's just start with the basics for now. Baby steps."Â
Your dread doesn't fade. Earlier, you feared what a man could do to you, tied and defenseless. Now, you wondered what this man wouldn't do to you.Â
"Okay, then....why?" You warily ask him. "Why tell me any of this? What's the point?"Â
"An excellent question!" He commends you, as though he were your teacher and not your jailor. "See, cursed energy is a bit complicated, but it's extremely effective. In almost every case, it's the solution. Except for you."Â
You shrink back.Â
"What-what does that mean?"
His grin turns feline. He's enjoying this; seeing you shake, waver beneath his eyes.Â
"Exactly what I said: you aren't affected by cursed energy. A sorcerer could use their technique on you, and there won't even be a scratch on your body. You're basically the Eraserhead of the Jujutsu World."Â
You stare at him. He hums, drumming his fingers on his thigh.Â
"I'm not great at explanations. How about we just have a hands-on experience?"Â
He extends his hands. A purple orb crackles to life, slowly gaining mass.Â
"Not too big," he says, though it's clear he isn't speaking to you, "don't wanna wreck the room."Â
He adjusts his angle so it's facing you. Your eyes widen, and the desperation to wrangle yourself out of the handcuffs grows stronger.Â
"Wait, stop!" You pleads fall on deaf ears. "Okay okay. I believe you. I believe you-" He flicks his fingers. You close your eyes just before impact.Â
You expected something. Electricity, a shock. Pain. Your body being eviscerated in milliseconds.Â
Nothing. Not even a gust of wind.Â
When your eyes open, he's grinning at you.Â
"See?" He says, "Not even a scratch."Â
He's right. Your clothes aren't even rustled, but the evidence is there. The carpet below you is shaved and cleaned off. And the wall closest to you has cracks on it.
You look back up at him.Â
"I said I believed you."Â
He shrugs. "Doesn't hurt to make sure we're on the same page." His smile is starting to look less scary and more annoying.Â
Your mind still struggles to keep up with all the information you've been given. The typhoon of anxiety is coursing through you.Â
"So, then....why this?" You mention to the handcuffs.Â
"Just a little confirmation you won't go crazy and destroy the place." He supplies happily. "If jujutsu doesn't work on you, then bindings and talismans definitely won't do a thing. Looking back, abduction probably wasn't the greatest idea in the world. I would've figured something else out, but time wasn't on our side in this case. Especially if we wanted you alive."Â
You pale at that. He notices.Â
"What, you thought I'd be the only person who noticed you? You're an anomaly. In our world, that's dangerous. Also, the bounty on your head is a pretty nice incentive for people to get the job done."Â
"A bounty?"
He grins, and the number he gives makes your mouth hang open.Â
"Yup, pretty crazy, right? Anyway, until everything settles down, you and I are roomies!" He claps. "Isn't that exciting!?"Â
You glance at him. Then, in the room. Then, at your cuffs. Everything was going so fast. The only constant was him.Â
"So, I'm not really a prisoner?" You ask. "I could just...leave, right?"Â
"Sure you could. If you hear all that and still wanna go, I won't stop you. Promise." He nods. "But you'd be dead as soon as you step out of the apartment."Â
It's not a threat. It's a promise. And not from him. That makes it worse.Â
This is insane. All of this is insane; who'd believe any of it? But his powers....that can't be faked. As well as everything that he told you. Why would he lie? What reason could he have to deceive you?Â
"Okay," you say hesitantly, "just one more thing."Â
The man leans in.Â
"What's your name?"Â
He smiles.Â
Becoming Gojo's roommate was an easy transition.Â
Youâve always been someone who goes with the flow. Becoming someone's consenting captive isn't a struggle once you get used to it. A few days in and you and your 'captor' have fallen into an easy rhythm. It's easy to grow trusting of him, especially when there are others who can vouch for him.Â
"You should be arrested." Ieiri mumbles, checking your wrists.Â
"What? I can't believe you're upset with me." Gojo responds though he doesn't sound very panicked. "I was desperate!"Â
Ieiri shakes her head, continuing wrapping your wrists. Amid your panic during the first few hours in Gojo's apartment, you managed to sprain your wrists, trying to yank yourself out of the handcuffs. You wince when she presses on your bruised skin.Â
"Sorry," she says, voice flat. You smile anyway.Â
Ieiri was also a sorcerer, but she had a different technique. Instead of Gojo's destruction, hers revolved around healing. You've never really seen it in action ("My technique won't work on you; even then, it's a sprained wrist. You'll live."), but it sounded pretty powerful.Â
"I'm not upset." Ieiri continues. "But I'm surprised you're going along with all this." That sentence is directed at you.Â
You shrug while trying to keep still for her. "He was pretty convincing."Â
Ieiri raises a brow, before ultimately deciding she doesn't care.Â
"Again, I'm very sorry about all this." Ijichi pipes up. Ever since he entered Gojo's flat, he's been doing nothing but begging for your forgiveness for Gojo's abrupt actions. Apologetic, but not very shocked. You're assuming this isn't the first time Gojo has done something like this.Â
Gojo's allies were very different from each other, you ultimately decided.Â
âWe thought weâd have more time to approach you,â he continues with a nervous smile, âwe never expected the clans to move so quickly.âÂ
âClans?â You ask, âWhat clans?âÂ
Ijichi gives Gojo a look. Gojo looks away, whistling. Eventually, Ijichiâs shoulders drop.Â
âSome minor clans with dwindling jujitsu sorcerers.â He gives. âAnd then the bounty happened and wellâŚâ he trails off.Â
You nod. âSo, when will everything go back to normal?â
Gojo grins. Ieiri sighs. Itâs Ijichi who gives the most concrete response.Â
You look at the three of them. âOr will things ever go back to normal?â
âItâs hard to say,â Ijichi says, ânews travels fast in the jujutsu world, but itâs not improbable. Miyashiro will let us know eventually.âÂ
"Miyashiro?âÂ
To answer your question, Ijichi pulls out his phone. You stare at a picture of yourself. But you know youâve never been in that restaurant before.Â
âItâs his technique.â Ijichi tells you. âFlesh manipulation. For the time being, Miyashiro will pose as you and can hopefully air out any potential bounty hunters. Heâs the perfect man for the job.âÂ
You nod, a bit skeptical. âIsnât this a bit dangerous? Arenât people trying to kill me?âÂ
Ijichi tucks away his phone. âMiyashiro is one our best. He'll be fine.â He assures.Â
Satisfied with your answers, you nod. Ieiri pulls away after she finishes wrapping your hand. Gojo claps his hands together.Â
âSee, roomie? Youâre in great hands!â He chirps. You nod, if only to seem compliant.Â
Apart from Gojo himself, Ieiri and Ijichi are the only ones who know about your predicament, his most trusted people. The rest of the world is unaware that there's someone posing as you, nor that you've gone into hiding. Not your friends. Not even your family. ("It's for the best," Ijichi explained when you voiced your worries, "but we promise, once the bounty is down, we'll return you back to your life. It'll be like nothing ever happened.").
Settling in barely takes a week. Gojo's nice enough to lend you his room, more than happy to set up in the living room. Despite how you two 'met', he's quickly proven to be a nice guy.Â
Nice. Just nice.Â
To be honest, you don't know all that much about Gojo. He's letting you stay in his home, but you don't see him all that much. Gojo is gone pretty much all day. Sometimes, he's gone for days on end. The apartment feels more like yours than his.Â
"I'm the strongest." He told you when you asked. You don't know what he means by that, so you didn't pry.Â
Despite the awkwardness, you don't mind the distant relationship. The man probably has his day packed with hunting down demons and this school he talked about.Â
The change doesn't happen until two weeks after you move in.Â
You weren't allowed to have a phone, nor any internet access, so you mostly spent your time doing hobbies. You've always wanted to learn to crochet, and now you finally had time to actually learn. Drawing also took some hours out of your day. And eventually, you moved onto cooking.Â
Ijichi was more than happy to grab you the grocery items when you asked. When you insisted on paying him back, he declined profusely. He was actually the one who organized getting your things and really moving you in. You have another thing you owe these people.Â
Cooking was a steep learning curve. Before, you'd only made simple sandwiches and curries, so the food starting out wasn't the best. But you enjoyed the journey more, rather than the end result. Pretty soon, you became pretty good at it.Â
Gojo wasn't home often these days, so you jump when the front door clicks open. He takes off that blindfold he's always wearing, blinking a couple times before his blue gaze settles on you in the kitchen.Â
"What's all this?" He cocks his head. He isn't smiling.Â
Oh no. You remembered getting permission to use his kitchen, but maybe he hadn't expected you to go this far? The kitchen is a mess. There's flour everywhere. You still hadn't washed the cutting board, nor the knives.Â
"I'm sorry," you say, "I-I can clean up and-"Â
He waves his hand. "It's fine. I'm not mad, I just..." He drifts off.Â
You suddenly have a feeling that you might've misread this entire situation.Â
"Would you like some?" You ask. "I think I made too much."Â
"I could eat," he says.
You smile.Â
A few moments later, the two of you are settled on the table. Gojo's never been so quiet before. In the short time you've known him, he's always been boisterous and playful. Now, he's silent. Staring at the food.Â
You hold your breath when he takes his first bite.Â
"It's good." He says, his mouth full. It's cute. "Really, really good. Damn."Â
You laugh out of nerves.Â
"You think so? I'm glad! It was my first time trying out this recipe and I wasn't sure if it'd turn out well and..." you're rambling, you know that. You can't help yourself.Â
"No, it's good. Real good," he says. It's silent again, but not as uncomfortable this time. The only thing you hear is the clanking of silverware and the hum of the lights. Outside the window, the city lights twinkle.Â
You're on your last bite when he speaks again.Â
"'been a while since I've had a homecooked meal." He starts with a slight laugh. "Kinda' forgot what it's like."Â
You think of the fridge. How it was only ever stacked with protein shakes and instant meals. Gojo was a sorcerer. The strongest. You think you get what that means now.Â
"I wouldn't mind doing this more often," you say.Â
He looks at you with the prettiest blue you've ever seen. The color of a bright cloudless sky.Â
"I think I'd like that."Â
Who ever said the phrase 'the quickest way to a man's heart is through his stomach' was onto something. Your friendship with Gojo bloomed after that night. On the seldom nights he came home, dinner was made and sitting on the table. It took a few days for the two of you to warm up enough to talk to each other. Once Gojo got going, it was a lot harder to shut him up. He talked about his school, his work as a teacher for other jujutsu sorcerers. You liked the way he talked about his students. Nothing but pride and affection .
On the nights he didn't come home, you'd save the leftovers in the fridge. They were usually gone by the morning.Â
He was around a lot more after that night. Not that you minded, it was his house. You just didn't get a few things about him. For example, that blindfold of his. Why wear it when it was clear he couldn't see with it on?Â
You decide to bring it up the third time he nearly runs you over.
"It's part of my technique." He explains. "The six eyes. They're basically cursed energy x-rays. The blindfold just limits their strength."Â
You were lounged on the sofa watching TV while he was plopped right next to you. He's switched his blindfold for his glasses.Â
"Oh," you say when it clicks, "and since I block people's abilities you..."Â
"Yup! Can't see you at all!" Gojo happily fills in. "It doesn't help that you're so quiet. Maybe I should put a bell on you."Â
You laugh, but it doesn't sound like he was joking.Â
"What's it like?" You ask, turning to him, "Seeing the way, you see? What-what do you see?"
"Everything." Gojo shrugs.Â
You frown. "That's not very descriptive."Â
He laughs. "Here, wanna try?" He takes off his glasses, handing them over. "These things are real popular with the ladies."Â
He's avoiding the question, but you don't bother chasing him for it. Instead, you grab the lenses, pulling them over your eyes. You expect to see the secrets of the universe. Instead, you see nothing but darkness. Though, that might be the point. Â
"Everything, hm?" You ask, when you take them off. "That sounds exhausting."Â
He takes them back with a grin. "It is! My eyes hurt so so much! You should pity me and make matcha tiramisu."Â
You laugh, drawing back. "That's what this is about? To guilt trip me into making dessert for you?"Â
"Did it work?"Â
You think for a moment.
"Get me the ingredients, and I'll see."Â
He cheers but doesn't fully answer your question until the episode ends when you've bid him goodnight and are about to return to the bedroom.Â
"You're blurry from far away."Â
When you look at him, his glasses are gone, tucked under his collar. It's night, but the sky still stares down at you. His usual smile is gone, stretched into a line you can't place.Â
"I can see down to molecules, atoms. Not you."Â
You look at him, his eyes. The beautiful curse they are.Â
You force yourself to take the first step. Then another. Then another. When you're right in front of him, when he's towering over you, you open to your mouth.Â
"What do you see, Gojo?"Â
"Everything." He honestly replies.Â
Everything. Not just cursed energy. Down to cells, molecules, atoms. You can't fathom how much that is, the essence of everything. What's that like? Being able to see the universe so much that it hurts? So much so that it makes him want to wear a blindfold and never see anything again.Â
But you're blurry. Gojo can't see you the way he sees others.Â
You reach your hands up slowly like you're approaching a wild animal. In some ways, maybe that's what Gojo is: unpredictable, able to wield the power of spaceâpower that's useless against you.Â
You cover his eyes. He doesn't stop you.Â
"What do you see, Satoru?"Â
He doesn't speak, and you're afraid he's forgotten how.Â
"Nothing." Quiet, barely more than a whisper.
He slouches ever so slightly, leaning into your hands like some weight's been lifted. It makes you smile.Â
When you try to pull your hands away, his wrap around your wrist, keeping you there. So you stayâfor as long as he wants.Â
It starts something of a tradition between the two of you. Not every night, not even most nights, but every so often, Satoru would grow quiet, shift in a particular way. You hoped it was therapeutic for him, a break rather than a glimpse of what could have been. You hoped you were helping.Â
And, if you were torturing him, hopefully, you won't be for long.Â
"How much longer do you think I have to do this?" You ask.Â
He hums, clearly not paying attention. You two were in the kitchen, making some sweet he saw trending on the internet. Well, you were doing all the work. Satoru kept trying to steal the batter.Â
"You know. Sleeping under your roof, eating all your food, stealing you bed." You urge, while whisking.Â
"You're acting like I've been keeping you in the attic, roomie." Satoru pouts. "C'mon, I haven't been that bad, have I?"Â
"I'm asking for your sake rather than mine," you tell him. "I'm sure you'll be thrilled to have your house back, and your bed. When will everything settle down?"Â
His blindfold is on, as it usually is. To help him out, you've taken to wearing squeaky slippers around the house. He'd offered to buy you one of those cat collars with bells. You declined.Â
He's looking in your direction. You know he can't see you, but you can still feel his eyes on you. It's a strange feeling.Â
"There's talks of taking down the bounty," Satoru finally says, losing his playful tone, "just rumors, nothing concrete. Worst comes to worst, we'll have to relocate you somewhere overseas."Â
Yeah, you were worried about that. Leaving everything behind, your home, your friends, your family, because your life was in danger. You hoped it wouldn't have to come to that.Â
"We have a couple of options, though," Satoru says, "negotiations, for one."Â
You perk up at that. "Negotiations?" You ask.Â
He nods. "Right now, you're under my protection. Unofficially. I could pull some strings, get those old geezers at the academy to take you in as some special assistant."Â
You tilt your head. "Like at the school that you teach, right?"Â
He nods. "We have a case like yours attending the school, too. I think you and him would get along."Â
"Your ability could be pretty useful to us. You might even get out in the field every so often." Satoru continues. "A special technique like that would be wasted down here."Â
Special. He's said that before. You can't remember when, but you know he's right. You're an anomaly, but you can use your abilities for good. But could you really do that? Risk your life every day? Lose pieces of yourself like that?
"I don't really feel special," you say, "I don't want to be special either." You glance at him. "Is that a bad thing?"Â
Even blindfolded, somehow, his eyes find yours.Â
"No," he says, no judgment in his voice, "it just makes you human."Â
Relief. You can feel it sinking through your veins. Part of you feels guilty. Satoru is right; you could do a lot. But you...you don't want to end up like him.Â
That makes you feel even worse, but then you catch something in his tone.Â
"You sound like you're not very human," you say back. You're teasing, but it falls flat.Â
He hums. It's not quite the response you were looking for. It takes a second for him to start up again.Â
"When I was younger, people used to call me creepy."Â
You stare at him.Â
"What?."Â
He grins, but it's not his usual one.Â
"It's true." He shrugs. "Mostly, it was 'cause of my eyes. They called them unnerving. Monstrous. My folks were always a creative bunch."Â He says it so casually, but you can hear the bite on his voice. It's phrased as a joke, but it isn't.
You put down your whisk, giving him your full attention.Â
"That's not true," you respond, "you know that, right? You aren't a monster. Monsters aren't as kind as you are."Â
"Oh?" He tilts his head. "Maybe I'm using my kindness as a lure to trap you. Guess you just fell for it, roomie. 'thought you were smarter than that." You roll your eyes.Â
"Okay, fine, I yield. You're a monster. But out of all the monsters in the world, I'd pick you."Â
For a moment, there's silence in the kitchen. Then-Â
"So cheesy!" Satoru laughs. He reaches over, roughly pinching your cheek. "Who knew you could say such cute things, roomie."Â
You slap his hands away, now extremely annoyed.Â
"Nevermind. I take it back," you retort. "I'd run away as far as I could from you."Â
"Good, you should," he replies. "I won't stop you."Â
You scoff.Â
"Maybe that's why everyone thought you were creepy." You go back to your whisking. "It's not your eyes, you just say a lot of ominous shit."Â
Despite how peaceful it is, making desert, cooking, and acting domestic, it can't last forever. The world was still hunting for you, and it had no problems reminding you of that.Â
One night, you wake up to the sounds of hushed talking.Â
It's coming from the living room. Multiple voices. Quiet but urgent. You're used to the noise. Satoru has this habit of blasting terrible soap operas at 2 am. You don't think that man sleeps. Over time, you've gotten used to at least one disturbance.Â
But this feels different. It's enough to rub the sleep out of your eyes, making you pad over to the hall.Â
They hear you before they see you. Satoru's apartment has creaky floorboards. Ijichi tugs on the collar of his shirt nervously. Ieiri just looks away. Satoru is leaning back against the couch, legs crossed. He's frowning. That's how you know something isn't right.Â
"Is everything okay?" You ask anyway.Â
Ijichi gives a tight grin.Â
"Everything's fine." He's quick to console. "We-we were just-"Â
"Stop." Satoru immediately cuts in. He's wearing his blindfold. You can't tell what he's thinking.Â
"We're not hiding it. Everyone involved should know."Â
Ijichi deflates. You think Ieiri sneers.Â
Satoru beckons you closer with long fingers. You step forward. They're sitting around a computer. You peek at the screen.
Instantly, you wish you hadn't.Â
There were pictures of you. Dead. Your body parts were strewn across the floor. Your hands were broken in every other way. Your legs were in pieces. Your head snapped clean off, blood oozing from your appendages like you were just a packet of liquid. One of your eyes was missing from its socket. The other was crushed. But it wasn't you, it was-Â
"Miyashiro. At least, what's left of him." Satoru gives. Â
The doppelganger, the guy who was covering for you. He was supposed to be one of their best; what happened to him?Â
What was going to happen to you?Â
They're talking again. At least, you think they are. Their words are muffled, filtered through water. You can't make out what anyone is saying. Your heart's beating too fast. It's pounding through your ears. You can only stare at the picture, what was left of him. Someone's touching you. A hand on your back.Â
"Roomie, hey," Satoru's voice comes.
The pounding stops. You look up at him.Â
Angelic. It's the only word you could think of. His snow-white hair was pretty, falling elegantly down his face. He'd taken his blindfold off. Blue eyes, sparkling, cleansing. Purifying, like the Ganges river.Â
How could anyone think a beautiful sight like this was monstrous?Â
He calls your name, your real name, and you break.Â
You cling to him, wrapping your arms around his waist. And you're sobbing, tears of everything flowing down your face.Â
Hands, hesitant, unsure, rest on your back. And then Satoru's holding you as tightly as he can.
He's warm. It's all you can think as you shake in his hold.Â
He's warm.Â
"I won't have to worry about that if I just gave in, hm?" You ask.Â
It was a couple of days later from your episode. Satoru had convinced you to give one of his soap operas a shot. On-screen, a woman slapped her cheating husband.Â
Satoru was lounging beside you, feet propped up on the coffee table. You want to tell him off, but it's his house.Â
"If you went to the school, you mean?" He asks. "Probably. You'd be a lot freer. Won't have to sit in a cramped apartment all day. 'sides, jujutsu tech is always on the lookout for fresh talent. The higher-ups would be ecstatic to have someone like you under their thumb."Â
"But I'd have to become a sorcerer." You say the unspoken.Â
Gojo nods. "Yeah, you would."Â
And you don't want that. To face curses, to face death every day. You know you can't handle that. You aren't strong, like Satoru.Â
"I'm sorry," you say.Â
He laughs. "For what?"Â
You shrug as the on-screen couple makes up again. "For being...a coward, I guess."
He thinks for a moment.Â
"It's not about bravery," he says in the end, "being a sorcerer is just...that. A sorcerer. It's a job. A title. Only a special few can do it. The crazy ones."Â
His tone gets a bit playful.Â
"No offense, roomie, but I don't think you got enough crazy in you."Â
"That's a compliment, actually." You correct. He ignores you.Â
"'sides, I like you staying here." Satoru declares, stretching his arms out on the couch. "Who'd feed me? It'd be horrible to go back to ramen again."Â
You roll your eyes. "Right. Who else will wake at 2 am because of your whining to make wagashi?"Â
"See! You get it!" Satoru grins. You can't force the smile off your face.Â
The husband's mistress has entered the set. The wife is confident that her husband will choose her. She's left heartbroken all over again. You don't get how she couldn't see it. The red flags were all there, and still, she was left blindsided. Never saw it coming. She trusts too easily, you decided.Â
"Also, I like having you here," Satoru says.Â
You glance at him. He's watching the screen.Â
"It's...nice." He admits after a bit. "To have company like this. It reminds me of back when I was younger. When the two of us lived in the dorms."Â
When he was a student? Who was he talking about? You don't pry. It's clear he isn't talking to you.Â
"I'm glad you're here," Satoru says.Â
Lightly, you bump shoulders with him. Infinity doesn't stop you.Â
"You're a sweet monster." You tell him.Â
He gives a secret grin.Â
Every once in a while, Gojo peeks into the bedroom while you're sleeping.Â
He's subtle about it, doesn't make too much noise. You're a light sleeper, so it takes little to nothing to wake you up.Â
He doesn't do anything. He stands there, shuffles here and there, hovering by the foot of the bed. You just pretend to be asleep in those cases, evening out your breaths, closing your eyes. It's always the same. He loiters around for a minute, and then he's shutting the door behind him.Â
It's strange, but you try not to think too much of it. He was probably looking for something. It's his room after all.Â
It's just...strange.Â
You find it when you're looking through his book shelf.Â
He doesn't have anything interesting to read. It's mainly just historical novels. You're perusing through one before a photograph falls out of the pages.Â
It's tiny, barely larger than your palm. It only takes a second to realize what you're looking at.Â
"Found your baby pictures." You gleefully tell Satoru when he comes back.Â
"What?" He tilts his head; you wave the photo in front of him. When he tries to take it, you pull back.Â
"Tiny Satoru!" You squeal. "Who knew you were once so small? I always thought you were born six feet over."Â
It's a simple photograph, a little aged, but still clear. Satoru looks about eight, standing between a man and a woman. His face is eerily blank. He stares with no emotion, not even a smile. He isn't wearing sunglasses or a blindfold. Doll-like blue eyes. You don't feel like you're looking at a child. He's too-
"Are those your parents?" You ask, letting him take the photograph from you.Â
"No," he says, "my caretakers."Â
Caretakers. Not nannies, or anything else. It felt so clinical. You lean against his shoulder, still staring at the photograph.Â
"You look cute." You finally say. When you peak over, a hint of a smile is twitching on his face. "But I totally agree with everyone. You look creepy. Like one of those children from the exorcist. Climbing over the walls."Â
"I never grew out of that phase." Satoru ponders. You laugh.Â
"What was it like?" You ask. "You said you're from a clan, right?"Â
"Exhausting." Satoru groans. "Never a break from training. I should go back and sue my folks for child abuse. I could get millions."Â
"I could help you with that." You pipe in. "I've never gone to law school, but I feel like I'd make a great lawyer."Â
"I'll keep that in mind." He promises teasingly before his smile fades.Â
"But that's the norm for most kids in jujutsu." He sighs. "Gotta' be perfect. Gotta' be the best, right from the beginning. There's a student I know who had a rough start, but she's the best in her class. Her clan didn't care about her potential. Those kids are all scary talented, they just need a bit of nurturing, that's all."Â
You stare at him. He catches you.Â
"What?" He asks, before his eyes widen. "Do I have a pimple?"Â
You shake your head. "For some reason, I feel like that's impossible for you." You tease.
"I'm just admiring you, I think. For being such a kind person."Â
"I thought we agreed I was a monster." Satoru points out.Â
This again. You roll your eyes.Â
"Fine, a good monster." You correct. "A monster, I know."Â
"The monster you know." He repeats
You want to ask him why he's so insistent on that. For some reason, you hold your voice.Â
Satoru's apartment had two bathrooms. Lately, the one in the bedroom has had some issues.Â
It's been awkward lately trying to share the only working bathroom. Satoru and you shower at around the same time, so you've opted to hold back your morning routine a little later. You still manage to catch each other. The amount of times you've accidentally caught him walking around with nothing but a towel around his waist would be too mortifying to admit.Â
But, so far, it's working. And you can't complain since you at least have one working bathroom. It's the little things.Â
Tonight, you wake up to your bladder urging you to move. And yet, your body still wants to sleep. You check the time. It's nearly 2 in the morning.
It takes a while to pull yourself up, unraveling yourself from the covers before you're trudging out the bedroom. Satoru's apartment is so dark. It's a completely different look compared to daytime. You feel your way with the walls, letting your eyes adjust to the dark. When you peek over at the living room, Satoru isn't there. He must not be coming home tonight.Â
The bathroom is shut, but there's a sliver of light bleeding under the door. Fuck, you did not shut the lights off last time. You need to be less careless.Â
At first, you think Satoru's hurt.Â
He looks hurt. He's hunched over, shaking shoulders, harsh breathing. You can only see his back, but he looks like he's in agony. You're about to step forward, ask what happened, and then you catch a glimpse of what he's clutching.Â
Pretty, blue, laced panties.Â
Your panties.Â
And you're close enough to hear his voice whispering your name. Over and over again.Â
"Fuck, fuck, baby, need you, just lemme-just lemme, all mine, all mine-"
He doubles over, tightening his grip on the edge of the sink. Your panties are damp.Â
You flinch, and in your moment of panic, you step back. Creaky floorboards.Â
Satoru looks up in the mirror. You don't move.Â
He takes his time. Placing his phone down. Adjusting his pants, washing his hands. You can only stand there, frozen. Staring. Staring until he's in front of you, looking right back.Â
You might have forgiven him if he had fumbled, laughed it off, became bashful. A human reaction. His face is eerily blank. He stares with no emotion, not even a smile. His eyes mirror that photograph. Doll-like, absolutely empty.Â
Monstrous.Â
Your eyes water. He turns blurry for a second.Â
Satoru steps aside. You wordlessly enter the bathroom, shutting the door behind you. You don't bother locking.Â
You don't know how long you stay there, quiet, shaking, your mind trying to piece together what you just saw. You stay there for hours. You stay there for seconds. Time stretches on like infinity itself, yet even then, it's too short.Â
You're alone with him. It's a thought you never even had until now. You're alone with him.Â
Satoru is outside. You don't look at him, staring at the floor, looking at the carpet, counting each strand. You keep your head down when you return to the bedroom.Â
He follows. You say nothing. You don't look. You don't look, even when the covers shift and he gets into bed behind you. You don't look, even when there's a hand on your shoulder. You don't look, even when there's a chest pressed against your back.Â
You shiver, you shake. You don't look. He says nothing, even when you break down completely.Â
You wake up alone the next morning.Â
You don't waste a second. You're stumbling through the room, picking up your clothes, packing everything that you need. You're so panicked that you manage to knock over an alarm clock.Â
It's habit to reach down and pick it up. Learned politeness to scrutinize it to make sure it isn't broken.Â
A black dot stares back at you.Â
A camera.Â
Horrible memories of last night come back. He was watching something on his phone.Â
You feel nauseous, about to give all over the floor. You need to go. You needed to get out of there.Â
The apartment is silent, like it always is when Satoru isn't here. You just hadn't noticed how cold it was, lifeless. It makes the pit on your stomach gap. You expect the windows to be bolted shut. They aren't. Sunlight streams through the glass. The front door is unbarred too.Â
It's easy to leave.Â
You stop anyway. One question.Â
Where would you go?Â
You can't go back home. Miyashiro's body still haunts you. His soul in your body, torn apart with such hatred and vitriol. Those people were still looking for you. The only reason you were still alive was because Miyashiro took your death bed.Â
You'd die if you went back home.Â
You can't go to jujutsu tech. You'd be expected to lay down your life, serve a maskless force that pretended to do good. You'd certainly die. Ripped apart by curses.Â
You'd be slaughtered if you went to the school.
Every route is treacherous, nearly impossible, full of dangers and unknowns.Â
At least, you know what Satoru wants.Â
He's made it clear since the beginning. You were just willfully ignorant. Oblivious on purpose. More than happy to ignore the red flags because you knew he was a kind person to his students, ignoring the dichotomy of his actions.Â
Two things can be right at once.Â
Satoru won't stop you if you run. He told you that himself. You could leave if you wanted, and he won't follow. But every other path is filled with an intangible value, and Satoru is the monster you know.Â
Your hand falls away from the doorknob.Â
You get started on dinner.
You're still there when Satoru comes back. You say nothing. Neither does he. Dinner is a quiet affair. He doesn't talk about his day, he doesn't talk about his students. When you wash the plates, he's quietly standing behind you. When you get out of the shower, he's waiting outside the bathroom.Â
You can't bring yourself to look at him until you get into bed. Your eyes trail up, past his legs, his shoulders, his neck. Looking into Satoru's crystal blue eyes.Â
Blank. Numb. Empty.Â
You think of the cameras. You think of your stolen underwear.Â
You think of how much his eyes must hurt right then.Â
You raise one hand out, grasping the sleeve of his shirt. It's barely a tug, but the monster follows like he's weightless, crawling into bed. He's too big to hold properly, but he sinks into your body anyway. His forehead rests against your chest. His eyes close. You don't feel that ice anymore.Â
âWhat do you see, Satoru?âÂ
âNothing.â A pause. A stilted breath.Â
âNothing but you.âÂ
He was right in the end. Satoru is a monster. There's no other word that can describe him. Inhuman, far above humanity itself. But he's the monster you'd pick, every single time.

That summer...
"The best part about our wedding venue is that it's free," you whispered. "The worst part is that we had to clean it ourselves."
"Agreed," Bradley replied with a groan.
You were exhausted, both physically and mentally, and now you were sprawled out mostly on top of Bradley on the living room couch which was too small even for him alone. His big hand was heavy where it rested on your back, and his voice was a deep rumble in his chest.
"But on Saturday, we'll be married. So it's worth it."
His words warmed you as you snuggled a little closer. Both of you could use a shower after the day you had, but you didn't even make it that far yet. As soon as you walked inside, this is where you ended up. You were expecting his stomach to start growling at any moment, and you were prepared to make some sandwiches when necessary.
"It was nice of Nat, Marty and Ruby to help us get things ready," you told him with a yawn.Â
In a shocking turn of events, Marty and Ruby got married over spring break in Las Vegas after going on just six dates. Actually, when you considered that they probably fell in love the day they met, it wasn't that shocking at all. People told you all the time they were surprised you were marrying Bradley a year after you blindly mailed a box to an unknown Naval aviator, but to you, it all felt exactly right.
"Marty was like a wizard with that scrub brush today. I don't think there's anything he can't do," Bradley said, mirroring your yawn with one of his own. "Are all of your kiddos coming on Saturday?"
"Mmm... most of them, yeah. And don't forget, you have to drive Edith up with you."
"I won't forget. She's a pretty integral part to our day, Gorgeous," he muttered, and sure enough his stomach began to rumble. "Damn, I was hoping I'd make it to the shower with you first." He gave your rear end a squeeze. "I haven't seen you naked since this morning."
You groaned and started to ease your body away from him and stood. "You'll see plenty of that when we're in Paris."
"I better," he replied, one eyebrow cocked as he examined you in your filthy old jeans and one of his ratty undershirts. "You look damn good, Mrs. Bradshaw. You'll need a new name tag for your classroom door when school starts in August."
Your fingers dragged through his wavy hair before tracing the scars on his cheek. "If I change my name." A little pout appeared on his lips, and you leaned down to kiss it away. "Come on and have a sandwich before we get cleaned up, Handsome."
-------------------------------
Bradley had much less responsibility on Saturday than you did. He had to put on his dress whites, fix his hair, and drive Edith up to Mira Mesa with him. You on the other hand left with Natasha first thing in the morning after demanding Bradley not even look at you. Apparently that was bad luck, but he'd already been watching you sleep peacefully when he woke around dawn before falling asleep again.
He wasn't exactly nervous about the wedding, but he was a little anxious. He wanted to get married and settle into things before your school year started. And before he left again for deployment. You always seemed to have more patience for his career than he did, but he wanted to be selfish and have some time at home while he was still a newlywed. And that didn't even account for the upcoming week in Paris.
While he was in the bathroom, running his fingers through his damp hair, Bradley examined his freshly shaven cheeks. Sometimes he forgot about his facial scars. You always looked at him like he was flawless, and now it rarely occurred to him to be overly self conscious about it. But they were there, and you had kissed all over them last night before bed while you teased him about what you wrote for your wedding vows.
He didn't bother to write his down. What would be the point in that? He could hardly ever shut up about how much he loved you, so he would just say what was on his mind when the time came. The ceremony was going to be quick anyway since Marty was officiating. Bradley could tell the reserved, older man only agreed to do it for the sake of friendship, and you told him he could keep it very short.Â
As he pulled his white uniform on, Bradley smiled, knowing he'd have you back in bed this evening before leaving insanely early to go to the airport in the morning. When be was all set, he grabbed the wedding bands from the dresser, and headed over to get Edith.
She was wearing a purple dress and had her sheet music with her, and Bradley realized that other than Nat, she was the closest thing to a family member that he would have with him today. "Thanks for coming up to Mira Mesa, Edith," he said, opening the passenger door of his Bronco for her.
She looked delighted. "It's my pleasure. I'm just so pleased you asked me to be there. And you look so handsome, Bradley. And very happy."
He was happy. So fucking happy. And that was the bottom line. He was too busy being happy to think about his scars or worry about reading his wedding vows from a piece of paper. He fell in love with you through notes, emails and letters, but today he was going off script.
"I am happy, Edith. Happier than I ever expected to be."
------------------------------
"God, you look like a dream," Natasha gushed, fluffing out the bottom of your simple wedding dress before adjusting the straps along your shoulders. "Your makeup is beautiful, and your hair is perfect. Bradley is going to piss his pants when he sees you."
"Hopefully not while he's in his dress whites," you replied, making her crack up while she took a step back to inspect you one last time.
She planted her hands on her hips in her cute, green dress. "This is going to be the perfect wedding. A quick ceremony followed by spaghetti and meatballs catered from the best restaurant in San Diego. This is how everyone should get married."
"I told Marty the ceremony needs to be quick, because Bradley's stomach will growl the whole time otherwise. I don't like it when he has to go too long without eating," you murmured, looking down at the fabric that cascaded along your new shoes. When you looked up again, Natasha was leaning with one shoulder against the brick exterior of your elementary school and wiping tears from her eyes. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing," she whispered, shaking her head and sniffing. "It's just that you get him. You understand him." She took a deep breath and added, "Bradley seems big and boisterous, but he's actually really sensitive. And he needs someone to look after him and make sure he eats enough. That's the kind of shit he needs. Not someone who is always mad at him for having feelings. He needs you, because you love him back as much as he loves you."
"Natasha," you gasped, reaching for her as tears stung your eyes. She had known Bradley for so many years, and her words made your heart swell with even more happiness. "I do love him. So much," you whispered as she squeezed you tight.
Then you heard the sound of a piano playing in the distance and knew you needed to start walking toward the playground. "Take care of him. And let him take care of you," Natasha said.Â
She wiped her tears on her sleeve as she gently guided you across the asphalt and handed you a bouquet of flowers. Your wedding vows were folded up into a paper airplane amongst the blooms that came from the florist Bradley used for your surprise bouquet when he was last deployed. Your heart beat a little faster as Natasha headed away from you and turned at the corner of the building, and then it was your turn to start walking.
The first thing you saw was the parking lot where Bradley's Bronco sat next to the Salvatore's catering van. Then the small, outdoor lunch pavilion came into view, which Ruby spent the morning decorating with fresh flowers, paper airplanes, and the fanciest disposable tableware you could find. Then you saw all of the kids from your class last year, and you smiled as they all waved and shouted your name.
But when you finally saw the playground equipment, Bradley was standing there in his dress whites surrounded by his friends and your friends and Maverick and Ruby. And his smile was so bright as you ran to him while Edith played the piano in the auditorium with all the windows open. It was a medley of love songs, but none of them compared to the love you felt when you were in Bradley's arms.
"Hey, Gorgeous," he whispered, scooping you up when you reached him, crushing the flowers between your body and his. "You look so pretty."
His dress whites were a bit scratchy against your skin, and this was the only time you'd seen him wearing them other than that one night last month that turned into some role playing after he tried them on. He always took your breath away. Since the first moment he wrote back to your letter, you just wanted more of him. You couldn't help but kiss him.
"Oh no!" Violet gasped. "You're supposed to do that at the end!"
Bradley laughed against your lips, and you turned your head to really take a good look at all the kids. They were all there with parents, some of whom had been at Career Day. And they were dressed up and looked adorable. You were going to miss them next year when they were in fifth grade.
"I promise we'll do it again at the end," Bradley laughed, his voice a deep rumble against your palm.
Then the piano music came to a stop, and Edith came shuffling outside as Marty introduced himself to everyone.Â
"I'm sure the kids all remember you, Marty," you assured him. "You were the coolest adult at Career Day."
"Hey," Bradley complained as he tried to straighten out your flowers.
"I meant second coolest adult at Career Day," you amended, and now both Marty and Bradley were smiling.
"Well, regardless, you told me to keep this quick," Marty said. You could already smell the spaghetti and knew for sure Bradley was hungry. "So quick it shall be." He cleared his throat and said, "I'm pretty sure I knew Lieutenant Bradshaw was in love before he knew it himself. I've overlapped with him on several deployments over the past eight years, and he always seemed a little bit lonely." You laced your fingers with Bradley's and leaned against his shoulder as Marty continued. "Until last year when he asked for my permission to take some photos and videos of me working on an engine rebuild. I told him I didn't mind, and then he divulged that it was for a fourth grade class back in California. My immediate assumption was that he was dating a teacher, but he told me he was just writing to some new pen pals. By the end of that long deployment, he told me he'd fallen for their teacher and couldn't wait to meet her."
"That's the absolute truth," Bradley murmured, his lips pressed to your forehead.
"We helped though," called Jayden, and you started laughing.Â
"That's also very true," Bradley confirmed. "Couldn't have pulled this off without all eighteen of you."
Marty shrugged. "That's pretty much all I have to say. It's so obvious that the two of you are made for each other. And I'm happy my friend isn't lonely anymore. Oh, and thanks for introducing me to Ruby." He blushed as he looked at his wife who then blew him a kiss. "Uh, so you can probably say some vows if you want to."
"Right," you agreed, handing your flowers to Bradley as you pulled the paper airplane from between two roses.Â
"Nice touch," he told you as you unfolded it, and he was all smiles when you looked up into his brown eyes.
"I learned from the best." You smoothed the page out in your hands. Your handwriting looked a little blurry as you realized there were tears in your eyes. After you read the few words you'd written from your heart, Bradley would do the same. And then you'd be married. You were almost dizzy with anticipation as you grinned up at him in his white hat which was slightly crooked now. "Bradley. You give me these butterflies in my tummy. All the time. From the very start. At first, I thought it was just a novelty. An extremely attractive man was taking time out of his day to humor me and my students? Butterflies galore." Bradley ducked his head and blushed, and when you reached up to touch his name tag, he met your gaze again. "But then I noticed a pattern. I felt them anytime I shamelessly thought about you. Whenever I reread your letters. When I refreshed my inbox hoping for a little note. When a box arrived for my class. Butterflies."
"Gorgeous," he whispered, cheeks still pink. "Baby, I was falling in love with you."
You laughed when he kissed your forehead again. "I was falling in love with you, too. But imagine my surprise when your deployment was ending and you asked me out. And then you made my students and I a priority the very first day you were back. And you've made me a priority ever since. Bradley, the butterflies don't stop, and I don't want them to."
He nodded. "I want you to have them forever. I promise I'll try to make that happen."
"I know you will," you whispered. "And I promise to dispose of all the spiders for you." He barked out a laugh. "And I will always say your name just to watch you melt a little bit. And I promise to talk aviation to you and always make sure you eat and always say I love you."
"Well, shit," he grunted, then his eyes went wide as he glanced at the kids and back to your face. "I mean, shoot. All of that sounds like everything I want." He cleared his throat, and you took your flowers back from his big hand. "I didn't actually write my vows down, because they are simple. They are never going to change. Sure, we got to know each other by writing and typing out our thoughts and feelings. And yeah, I still love getting a notification on my phone and reading what you sent to me. But nothing compares to hearing your voice. Nothing compares to how good I feel when I can tell you how much I love you in person."
"Bradley," you whispered, eyes and nose burning with unshed tears.
"I know, Gorgeous. It overwhelms me, too. You already have my heart. You own it. Everything I have to offer is yours. I just ask for three things in return." You pressed your lips together to keep from sobbing. "First, I'm so serious about the spiders, okay? If you see one, don't even tell me about it, just make it go away, alright?" You nodded and laughed through your tears. "Second, I need you onboard with movie nights on the little couch forever. I like that you end up laying on me because there's not enough room. I like staying in for the night with you."
"It's my favorite," you whispered. "Let's do it forever. What's number three?"
Bradley smiled and leaned a little closer. "Number three. I just need you to talk to me. However you can. Let me hear your voice. Email me. Text me or call me. Write me a letter or fill up a journal. Anything. All of it. I just need you to talk to me no matter where I am. I'm pretty sure that will get me through anything."
You were nodding in agreement as you thrust your bouquet at Marty and threw your arms around Bradley's neck. When your lips met his, you felt the butterflies. "I can do that," you promised before he kissed you harder.Â
You could hear your former fourth graders all cheering, and then Marty said, "I guess as far as I'm concerned, you're married."Â
You were wrapped up in Bradley's warm grasp as he kissed you until Natasha had to say, "There are children present!" When he finally pulled away, you watched his eyes grow wide.
"We forgot the wedding bands." He dug around in his pocket and pulled them out, slipping yours into place right away. "I want mine on, too. Been looking forward to wearing it for weeks."
"I know you have," you told him, lingering on the feel of his rough hand against yours as you slide it on. "It looks good on you. Now, I think it's time for you to have some spaghetti."
---------------------------------
Bradley moaned as he bit into a chocolate pastry that melted in his mouth. It was buttery and delicious, and about to be topped off by the cup of coffee in front of him. "I was wrong," he grunted.
You looked at him across the cafe table, tucked under the awning and out of the rain that landed on the cobblestone street ten feet away. "Wrong about what?" you asked, brow creased in concern.
He held out the pastry for you to nibble on as he said, "Paris isn't just the city of love and the city of sex. It's also the city of food."
You laughed and covered your mouth as you chewed. "You've had plenty of all three since we got here, Bradley."
"I sure have," he agreed, thinking about all the frilly French lingerie inside the shopping bag at your feet. "And I would really like to have some more of each."
"And here I was concerned you'd miss Thai dinners on the beach and the food at Salvatore's."
"Oh! I should talk to them about putting chocolate pastries on their menu."
"You would bug to go there every day."
"Nah," he said, taking a sip of the best coffee he'd ever had. "Not every day. Nothing beats hanging out on our couch. Now, how many of these should we take back to the hotel?" he asked, holding up the last bit of the snack before popping it into his mouth. He moaned as it melted away on his tongue. "I'm just going to go inside and have them pack up whatever they have left."
"We can come back tomorrow!" you said with a laugh. "We're in Paris for three more days, Bradley."
"I love the way you think, Baby," he replied with a nod. "We'll take a bunch back now, and then we'll come back tomorrow."
When you and he headed out into the rain, he kept you tucked against his side along with the box of pastries and the bag of lingerie while he held the umbrella.Â
"Looks like there's nothing much to do for the rest of the afternoon," you said casually. "Seems like a pretty good time for you to have more love and sex and food."
"Let's go, Mrs. Bradshaw. I think you have some things to try on for me."Thirty minutes later, all the lingerie you tried on was already removed again, but only after he'd taken some pictures. And now you and he were doing the same thing you'd done at least once per day since you checked into the hotel room which overlooked the Champs-ĂlysĂŠes and the Eiffel Tower beyond.
"Oh god," you moaned, on your hands and knees, naked on the bed. Bradley had his hands on your hips, holding you still so you could enjoy the view of the rainy city while he fucked you from behind. "It's so pretty here," you whined.
"Look at me, Baby," he coaxed, running his left hand complete with wedding band up along your back. He stroked your neck as you turned your head to show him your beautiful face and fucked out expression over your shoulder. "It's Gorgeous."

ââââââăâ° KINKTOBER DAY 6: đđđđđđđ đ
đđđđđđ
title: haunted bang synopsis: when you decided to explored a haunted mansion, all you wanted was to gain more knowledge for your grimoire. you never expected it to be habited, even less for all the residents to agree that sharing is caring. [1.8K] cw: wizard!reader, teratophilia, monster fucking, gangbang, voyeurism, size difference, manhandling, mind connection, scent kink, oral (f!receiving), pet play, pussy drunk, overstimulation, you know that post about "would you fuck your clone?", f in v, monsters included are a eldritch creature, a werewolf, a vampire and a shapeshifter.
PREV POST â° NEXT POST
There is so many rumors about the mansion. Some believe it to have been built on top of an ancient cemetery, ending the ghostâs slumber. Others, that a coven filled every room with protection runes to preserve the soul of the late owners. A journal published a profile for an architect that died a day after the construction was completed, but quick research showed he had nothing to do with it.
Lies and gossips spread easily, but those brave enough to walk into the dead-end street can see the truth by themselves. Whoever chained those doors did so sensibly, since nothing sane could ever come out of them. A darkness spreads from within the house.
After making your way in with an old pliers, you explored the first floor. There were many chances of turning away, all of them ignored willingly. At the end, all you had were two options: to stay at home safely, or possibly learning a new spell for your collection.
Wizards arenât known for making the obvious, easy choice.
Since the moment you sensed the darkness this mansion casted, nothing wouldâve convinced you of not coming back to explore the secrets within those walls of bricks and stones. You feel it even better now, this great deal of mana. It isnât a cursed mansion, only a heavily enchanted one.
A relieved smile appeared on your face when you finally found a library. You invoked flames in the remaining candles on the chandeliers and sat down on a large armchair. With the books floating from their shelves and surrounding your body, you analyzed them quickly in search of something worth your time.
In a few minutes, you found it. Holding an old grimoire in your hands, you blew the dust away. Walking through the library, your excitement blinded you. You put the book down on a table, opening your own to copy any fun spell.
As you begin to read the grimoire, your eyes widened. It takes strength from great old forces, eldritch entities incomprehensible to the average mortal. Based on entropy, it alters the fabric of reality itself.
Ancient magic. Its use is highly forbidden, and usually punished with death. Cleaning your glasses on your skirt, you bended over the table and read every line with an unending curiosity.
The first touch went unnoticed. A soft, quick brush against your arm. As your thigh got pinched, you assumed it to be the work of a hungry insect. But when a cold aura surrounded you, embracing your body and soul, there was no doubt left.
Whatever old force empowers this place; it was right here. Right behind you.
Your quarterstaff materialized between your hands. Your grimoire floated, pages turning as you recite your strongest protection spell. Changing your posture, you were ready to fight.
The quiet nature of this threat shifted.
Something forced its way inside your mouth, putting an end to your attempt of using radiant magic. An invisible force, but not less palpable because of it. As you bit down, trying to stop it, you felt it pressing down on your tongue.
Intruder, a voice spoke inside of your head. Low and strident, all at once. Thief in the night.
A limb embraced your waist, leaving a gelid trace as it fit beneath your shirt. A hand grabbed your left thigh so roughly you had no reaction but to whine with your mouth full. Little by little, there wasnât a muscle of your body free to fight back.
It lifted you from the ground, forcing your hands open. The quarterstaff disappeared in the air before hitting the floor. Higher and higher in the air, your body trembled. Fully involved by this coldness, you had no way of moving.
Usurper, she hissed inside your mind. Or was it a masculine voice? You couldnât quite picture it. But thinking back about it, didnât it groaned and roar? Was it even human? Nothing will harm my home.
Nothing will, you thought. If you could hear its voice, then it could hear you too. You hoped. I mean no harm. I swear.
LIAR.
I want to learn, you tried to bargain. I have no intentions of hurting anyone. I didnât even know there was someone in here to harm. All I desire is to know more than others. Nothing more, nothing less.
The silence gave you an opportunity to look for your grimoire. Alone on the ground, it was so close and yet so far away. Even if it was near, with you unable to speak or move there were few spells you could cast. And none of them would be of any real practical help now.
A soft caress on your cheeks took you from your hushed thoughts. As your feet touched the floor, you stumbled trying to regaining your balance. It held you in place, the feeling soft and rough.
I can teach you everything I know, it whispered. For a cost. This time, the voice came with pictures in your mind. Do you want that?
In them, you saw yourself. Lips hanging open, forehead covered in sweat, eyes half-closed. You saw tears running down your face, legs spread and trembling, fingers closed tightly around the same table you used before.
And in them, you saw glowing eyes still hidden by darkness.
Yes, I want that.
The same careless limbs bended you over the table, but this time it was gentler. Less worried about safety, more worried about you. Holding your hands behind your back, it placed your legs apart.
Something cold touched your inner thighs. It moved against your skin, lingering. Once more, you invoked flames. Contorting your body, a gasp broke the silence. Kneeled down, eyes fixated on your thighs, you found a werewolf.
âYour scentâ, he groaned. His face rubbed against you, inhaling shamelessly. His yellow eyes raised to yours, and in them you saw desperation. His muzzle went away from you and he smiled, displaying his sharp fangs. âHold her still.â
Once he closed his mouth, you tried to move away. Not because you wanted for him to stop, but because how couldnât you when he says that? You were forced down, back caressed and head scratched. Like a pet, you were kept still and quiet.
Your skirt was thrown away from your body and he⌠sniffed you? Half of you bare to whoever there to witness, with a monster between your legs. To know that youâre being watched only makes you desire this more. A huge tongue licked your pussy, you moaned. It was real, just a tad louder than it needed to be.
Putting on a show, it laughed inside your head. Keep on this good work and I might not let you walk away.
Your eyes closed as he continued to ravish you. Restless, he simply continued. Tongue deep into you, teeth sinking into your skin, lips sucking around your clit. Your legs were covered in drool, and you could feel it dripping from your aching core.
A hand grabbed your hair, forcing you to look up. A real touch this time. The candles showed you the tall woman in front of you, nails so long they could be mistaken by claws. Looking into her red eyes, you felt a primal urge inside you.
Everything inside you told you to run.
Nature is such a disappointing force. It is not your fault that you were born a prey, that ancient being spoke. Its voice oscillated, as if it was too far away and suddenly right against your ear. And it is not hers to be turned predator long ago.
âThis delicate sparkle in your eyesâ, a velvet voice made to your ears. Elegant, but sharp. She smiled, and the fangs werenât a reason to act surprised. âYou wonât allow it to dissuade you, will you? Donât struggle. There is no use.â
Her free hand closed around your neck. A movement faster than you could see, but delicate enough for you to know she didnât want you to break apart.
âYou are mine now, puppyâ, she smirked. âPut your mouth to use.â
As she put her knee on top of the table, moving the black dress enough for you to see her strong legs, the vampire pulled your hair again. âYes, mistressâ, you said.
Satisfied, she forced your head between her thighs. As the werewolf continued to torture your poor pussy, you treated hers like a wine you had to enjoy every little sip. It was easy to get eager, to get lost on your own never-ending pleasure, but you made sure to treat her nicely.
Every whimper of hers made you weaker. Every bite from him made you weaker. Every hold onto your skin, whispers inside your head, made you weaker.
It was no surprise your orgasm would break you in pieces. It was no surprise every single one of you would continue despise it.
As you breathed in, trying to get your legs to work, a hand came back to stroking your skin. It put you on top of the table as if you weighted nothing. Before you could flutter your eyes open, those skilled fingers were inside of you.
Touching in the right place, with the right pressure, at the exact right moment. It was perfect. Did this creature read your mind in a way or another? Or is this fate, and in this wretched place you find someone that really knows exactly how to fuck you properly?
âWhat a delightâ, the vampire spoke. âMay I drink from her now?
The werewolf hummed. âLook at her legs. Those pretty lipsâ, you heard him doing just that. âYou canât. Not yet. I need my plaything strong and capable for the night.â
âBut do you really, old dog?â She argued. âNo one will judge you for admitting you need to rest. No one but me, of course.â
Her mind is far more interesting, it spoke again. Apparently, everyone could hear it. Her memories taste even sweeter. What a fine thing found us this evening.
âHow luck we areâ, you said.
But you didnât.
Opening your eyes, you saw yourself. Fingers deep into your cunt, mouth displaying the most annoying smirk. Eyes glistening with fake innocent.
âFuckâ, you babbled.
The smirk seemed to grow. âYour mind is a interesting placeâ, that thing said. Even her voice was the same as yours. âBut I need to say, your body if far more comfortable.â
Looking into your eyes, all you could do was take it. Let this being have its fill of you. Watch for your tits move. The strechmarks on your waist. Your soft thighs. Those freckles on your skin.
Being used, watching yourself, its voice came back. You want this to stop?
You giggled. âDonât tell me itâs over already?â
Not at all, the voice came back. Letâs move to the next floor.

at the end of the day
summary. you and astarion have your first genuine fight and the other companions try to patch things between the two of you.
warnings. comfort/fluff
pairing. Astarion x GN!Reader
a/n. have not written an actual one-shot in a while omg,...
Breakfast is eaten in silence. One that's been extending far past its welcome date now.
Shadowheart grips her fork, feeling the flitting glances exchanged amongst the others around the table while she maintains focus on the two individuals sitting on opposite sides of the table. Your eyes remain trained on the bread sitting on your plate and Astarion swirls his chalice aimlessly in his hand, neither of you even acknowledging the presence of the other. The cleric grimaces as you stand suddenly, your chair scraping against the floor as you do so.
"Thanks for the food, Gale," is all you mutter before leaving the room with your plate in hand. Astarion rises from his own chair in an instant, huffing.
"I must take my leave as well."
When both parties have left the room, all five other companions stare at one another in a knowing silence. Lae'zel is the only one who doesn't seem the slightest bothered. Wyll is the one to break the uncomfortable tension in the air, clearing his throat after Lae'zel nearly bites her fork off. "I see they're still amidst their lovers' quarrel."
"What are they even fighting about?" Karlach groans, slumping into her chair with an exasperated groan.
"It was nice the first few days to have a good night's sleep without their incessant noises," Shadowheart grumbles, shoving an egg into her mouth. "But now, this is arguable worse."
"Should we...aid them somehow?" Gale blinks.
Lae'zel snorts. "They're adults, we don't need to coddle them, wizard."
Despite her words, they do find themselves a few hours later in unanimous agreement to do something to ease the unfamiliar dryness of the camp dynamic. It comes in multiple attempts. And to say few---if not all--were unsuccessful, is an understatement.
First, when out in the woods, Gale makes an effort to spark a conversation that would prompt both you and Astarion to join in. You nod occasionally, though lost in thought, while Astarion promptly ignores whatever he's talking about. It's a pathetic attempt that has nobody but himself babbling away, which earns a grunt from Shadowheart. It's enough to shut him up, thankfully.
Second, Karlach uses her uncanny ability to lift someone's spirits. Jokes, dancing, all that jazz. Even booze. She urges you to let loose, but all you do in response is smile at her apologetically while Astarion just glares off into space. Another failed attempt. Lae'zel pats Karlach on the shoulder.
Wyll tells stories of his monster hunting days which you usually take an interest in. Astarion naturally listens to what a monster hunter does when he's not hunting monsters, but that's all it is. You and Astarion only listen. There are quips and lingering questions, but neither of you ever direct it at one another, or bother to add into the conversation either. The sheer amount of teasing questions has Wyll's head spinning by the end of it. Lae'zel rolls her eyes.
Just when things couldn't possibly get any worse, you're ambushed. It's a small horde of goblins---nothing beyond your capabilities, but your companions do take some small scratches here and there. Somehow, though he rarely does, as he prefers staying behind you or Karlach, Astarion does too. And despite his efforts to hide it behind his back, you also didn't miss the cut lining Astarion's arm to his elbow. It's not deep by any means, and if it were your own injury, you'd likely just brush it off.
But it's on his skin, and he'd gotten it when taking a hit from an arrow that should've cut your arm.
Blasted hells, you think, as he shrugs it off. Even when you can clearly see him clenching his jaw to bite away the pain.
If battle won't be the end of you, you're sure your idiot of a boyfriend might be instead.
"Come here, you fool," you mutter, holding out your hand. He doesn't even consider the fact that you're mad at one another and immediately extends his arm to you. Habits, you suppose.
You mumble out a weak scolding as he watches you wrap the wound through his lashes. He shivers as you lather a cool ointment on the cut, hoping it's enough to soothe the pain before Shadowheart's recovered enough to properly heal him. He lifts a pale hand to your face, and for a moment, you think he might pinch you. Instead, he runs a thumb across your cheek, spreading the ointment on a scratch you hadn't even realized was there in the first place.
You meet his eyes, your own softening as he cups his fingertips around your cheek. The way he looks at you is overwhelming sometimes---like you're the only thing he gives a damn about in this world---but it's a welcome feeling when he hasn't even looked you in the eye this way in days now. For a moment, you realize you don't even remember why the two of you were mad at one another in the first place.
A laugh threatens to escape your throat. How childish, truly.
And then he flicks your forehead, unable to help the grin etching onto his lips when you blink in surprise.
"That was for making me sleep by myself for three nights."
You swat at his arm while he dodges each of your lazy attempts to get back at him. And though the two of you continue bickering, unbeknownst to you, you have an audience a good bit away, watching you return to your old ways after making them worry for so long.
"What a sight it is--to see young people in love again," Wyll smiles.
Shadowheart deadpans. "Isn't Astarion nearing 240?"
"Who cares?" Karlach shrugs, slinging her arms on either side of her companions with a toothy beam. "What matters is that they made up...and we didn't even have to help them."

Bloodline (Part 1) || Ominis Gaunt x Reader || Smut
Outline: Your family arranged for you to marry Marvolo Gaunt. Fortunately, your best friend Ominis steps up and makes sure to save you from such a fate.
Word count: 4â515
Warnings: English isnât my first language so possible misspelled or misplaced words, arranged marriage, abusive families (mentioned), first time s*x, friends to lovers and explicit smut.
(( Part 2 - Please )) - (( Part 3 - Heirloom )) - (( Masterlist ))
The familiar flip-flap of owls entering the great hall through the windows resounded in Ominisâ ears, excited chatter rising from the students sitting at the tables as, one by one, they received their mail. The sound of paper falling on a wooden surface nearby piqued his curiosity, he didnât receive letters often, nor did you or Sebastian but an envelope had unmistakably landed in front of one of you.
Your clothes rustled as you moved to take the paper in your hand, tearing apart the top of the envelope as your owl took flight again, its wings almost grazing Ominisâs hair on its way back to the owlery.
Despite the noise of other students all around, Ominis distinctly heard you take a sharp inhale of air, your silence as you read the letter addressed to you feeling somewhat tense.
âIs everything alright ?â He asked you, but you didnât reply right away, too focused on whatever you were reading.
He waited a few more minutes, noticing the way your legs grew restless and your movements became agitated. You were sitting at the opposite side of the table from him and your foot bumped into his a few times as you nervously readjusted your posture.
He was too polite to insist and didnât want to push you to share something you might want to keep for yourself, so even though he was dying to question you about the mysterious letter you had received and why its content seemed to upset you, he simply cleared his throat to remind you that he was waiting for an answer to his question.
âItâs a letter from my family.â You explained, with a slight tremble in your voice. âThey say that they arranged a partnership for me, effective immediately after graduation.â
âA partnership ? You mean some kind of professional training ?â Sebastian asked, before biting into an apple.
âThat would be an internship.â Ominis corrected him, shaking his head. âI think she meant something more intimate than that.â
âLike⌠A relationship ?â Sebastian inquired, still munching on his fruit.
âA marriage.â You stated, defeated.
âI didnât know you were dating someone.â
âI am not.â
âItâs common for wealthy and powerful families such as hers to arrange weddings, especially if itâs a matter of keeping their bloodline alive and pure.â Ominis explained, a shiver running down his spine. That was something his family did too, they were obsessed with maintaining the quality of their bloodline, suitable matches were carefully chosen, sometimes within their own family members.
âItâs more of a business contract than a marriage.â You added, with a sigh. âAnd my parents are making it very clear that I donât have any say in the matter.â
âDo you know whoâs the lucky fiancĂŠ, though ?â Sebastian asked, seemingly taking such terrible news lightly. Way too lightly. It was a tragedy, really. You deserved better than to be forced into a loveless marriage under the pretense of keeping a bloodline going, securing the pride and superiority of the worst kind of wizards to exist. Maybe Sebastian couldnât quite grasp the gravity of what you had been asked to do but Ominis knew all too well how you must feel, being robbed of your free will and freedom by a controlling and corrupted family.
âItâs Marvolo Gaunt.â You answered, bluntly, before getting up from your seat on the bench and leaving the great hall in a rush. Although Ominis couldnât see, he felt the intensity of your gaze piercing right through him, until you were no longer in the room.
His chest tightened and his body tensed at the sound of his older brotherâs name. Marvolo probably was the most cruel wizard he knew, aside from their father. Although they shared the same blood, the same family and the same education, Ominis wasnât afraid to say that his brother was immensely deranged and should have been locked up in Azkaban a long time ago, like the rest of his family actually. The only reason rules didnât apply to them and they were free to commit the most vile and cruel crimes without facing punishment was because they were Gaunts, descendants of the great Salazar Slytherin and held more power and wealth than any other family of wizards in the country.
And now you were going to be one of them.
He couldnât imagine you, taking part in the cruel acts his family committed for fun. And if you didnât, they would find a way to punish you for it, just like they had punished him in the past. The Gaunts were dangerous, and you needed to stay away from them, no matter what.
Ominis stood up, reaching for his wand to guide his steps through the corridors and halls of the castle. He needed to find you and he knew his wand would know exactly where to take him. He was racking his brain, trying to find a solution to save you from such a doomed fate as he followed mindlessly the path his wand indicated. Eventually, he found himself outside, in a narrow courtyard. Wind rustled through the leaves of a nearby tree and caressed his face, sending a cold shiver through his body. He couldnât feel any rays of sunshine warming his skin, meaning it must be a rather cloudy afternoon. He could hear the sound of water moving in the fountain at the center of the courtyard, birds singing in the sky⌠And soft muffled sobs. His wand twitched, tugging him in your direction.
âIâm sorry this is happening to you.â Ominis told you, once he was standing in front of you. He could hear the sobs shaking your body as clear as day but still felt compelled to bring his hand to your face, wiping the warm teardrops away from your cheeks with his thumb. âMarvolo really isnât a suitable match for you.â
âItâs alright, I knew this day would come eventually. I was just hoping my parents wouldnât force me into this as soon as I was done with school.â You replied, another teardrop falling from your lashes and rolling down your cheek..
âThere must be something we can do about it.â Ominis said, instinctively brushing off the fresh tear from your face. âWhat if you were engaged to someone else ?â
You laughed although you didnât find anything amusing about the situation.
âDuring my seven years here, no one ever courted me, no one attempted to ask me on a date, I have no other prospects. And you know as well as I do that my parents shouldnât risk angering the Gaunts.â
Ominis furrowed his brows. You were right, if your parents broke their promise to marry you off to one of his siblings, they might not make it out alive. If his parents had arranged for you to be wed to Marvolo, it meant they considered your blood pure enough to perpetuate their dignified bloodline. It was a rare occurrence, usually no one was deemed worthy enough so chances were that theyâd do everything in their power to ensure that youâd become a Gaunt now that they had approved of you.
If you broke the arrangement to be with someone else, a wizard of lower class and reputation, his father would take it as an offense and youâd have to pay for such a daring act. If you married Marvolo, then surely he would take advantage of you and of your obligation to satisfy your family and his, heâd be cruel and violent, he wouldnât care about you and would never treat you with the respect you deserved⌠There was only one option left.
âMarry me.â Ominis stated, determined.
âWhat ? What are you saying ?â You spoke, dumbstruck by the sudden suggestion.
âMy parents want you to ensure the purity of our bloodline, your parents want you to earn the status and power that come with my last name⌠So marry me instead.â
âOminis, you donât have to. I canât ask you to do that for me, thatâsâŚâ You argued, shaking your head.
âItâs a matter of time before my parents arrange a wedding for me too. I think Iâd much rather be married to someone I consider a friend than a stranger they would have picked for me. So really, youâd be the one doing me a favor.â Ominis continued, his heart beating faster as he spoke. He knew it was a good idea, it would save you from Marvolo, from his family and, despite being a Gaunt himself, he would do his best to treat you well. He would never hurt you, never mock you, never give you any reason to regret choosing him instead of his brotherâŚ
So please, say yes.
His mother adjusted his tie. She told him that the all black suit she had gotten tailored made for him suited him better than anything he ever wore. She said it brought his blue eyes out, and that everyone would be able to tell that he was one of the heirs of the Gaunt name. Ominis wasnât sure what was meant to be a compliment and what was meant as a jab, but he simply nodded at everything she said.
By the time he walked down to the garden of the imposing manor, his motherâs arm looped in his, he felt dizzy with anxiety. His heart was pounding in his chest, threatening to burst out at any minute. His ribcage felt so tight around his lungs that he could barely breathe correctly, and the more time went by, the more sweaty his hands became.
He could hear the chatter of the numerous guests his parents had invited as they took place around the lectern that had been placed at the very center of the garden. The familiar smell of roses tickled his nose, meaning the white rose bushes must be in full bloom in this season. He could feel the sunshine on his face and the warm summer air on his skin. It was a beautiful day on the gloomy manor.
His mother let go of his arm, leaving him standing on his own in front of what he imagined was an impressive audience of grumpy wizards. He still couldnât quite catch his breath and, the moment the ambient chatter died down, his throat instantly felt constricted and his body tensed up.
He heard the whispers among the crowd and the footsteps approaching in his direction. It was unmistakably the way of walking of a man, confident and determined while the lighter steps next to his were more hesitant. In the past seven years, Ominis had memorized the sound of your steps. He also could recognize your smell in a crowd and knew exactly how soft your skin felt under his fingers. He could tell if your hair was up or let down from the way you touched and played with it and he knew that the quiet, almost imperceptible breaths you let out meant that you felt nervous. He knew all of this and more yet, he had no idea what it felt like to kiss your lips or hold you in his arms and that felt awfully wrong, considering what you both were about to do.
The man that had accompanied you walked away, leaving you standing with Ominis in front of prying, curious eyes. You didnât say anything to each other, too busy trying to not pass out from how anxious you both felt. The contract was written and placed on the pupil in front of you, its tricky clauses oozing with dark magic.
It wasnât just any contract. It was a cursed one, meant to bind you together forever. The words til death do us part took a different meaning as you signed your name at the bottom of the page, knowing that if you ever tried to leave him, youâd most likely be instantly killed by some kind of dark spell that probably was forbidden to cast. The promises you made by signing this contract were definitive and the consequences if you failed to hold them were deadly. At the very least, you both could feel thankful that you werenât making such vows to a complete stranger.
Ominis signed the parchment too, the ink dripping from the quill dark red like blood. The contract was sealed with applause and illegal magic, making you his wife. For the rest of your lives.
The dinner that followed the ceremony was dull and mostly boring, a display of Mister Gauntâs power and a lecture on his narrow views about muggles and mudblood wizards, as the guests listened quietly to his speech, nodding in agreement every once in a while. Eventually, Ominis took his leave, pretending that he was exhausted from the events of the day. You excused yourself too, glad to find him waiting for you in the hallway.
He knew the manor he grew up in in details and could navigate it without the help of his wand. He guided you upstairs, through the dark corridor that led to his bedroom. He opened the door for you, letting you step inside first before following you in and shutting the door behind him. He had never had any guest in his bedroom before and that realization made him feel uneasy. He knew that the servants kept his room neat and tidy - just how he liked it - but he wasnât sure of what you were going to think about the ancient desk he sat at to write his letters to Sebastian, or the books that lined the shelves of bookcases that reached the ceiling. And what about the four poster bed he slept in, he had always found it large and comfortable but suddenly he worried it might be too small to share with you.
âOnce we move into our own home weâll be able to sleep in separate rooms. But for now, I think itâs better if we share mine.â He said, hoping that you wouldnât feel too uncomfortable here until then.
To convince his parents to let him marry you instead of his brother, he had pretended he was madly, irredeemably in love with you. At first, they didnât like it, saying that love made men foolish and pushed them to their demise but, eventually, they came to the realization that him wanting you so badly would serve the purpose of continuing their bloodline. Many heirs could be born from such desires.
Now that you were here, in the intimacy of his bedroom, he couldnât help but think about it. How amazing it would be to kiss you, touch you, make you his as everybody expected him to. But he wouldnât do it. Mainly because he was a gentleman and had promised himself that he would never, ever, disrespect you. And also because he was determined to not give his parents the satisfaction of having any heirs from him. The Gaunt bloodline was poison, corrupted with dark practices and immorality. Sooner or later, one of them would cause unforgivable chaos in the world, so he was determined to prevent it from happening anyway he could.
âIâm sorry that you had to do this.â You told him, taking a closer look at the books on his nightstand. You sounded sincere, as if you felt guilty that he now had the privilege of calling you his wife. âYou should have been able to marry someone you love.â
Ominis had never felt anything remotely close to what was described in the books he read for someone, nor did he experience the crushes Sebastian so often had on a random person every once in a while. The only woman that had somehow interested him was you. He cared about you. And maybe it was an acceptable foundation for a marriage.
âYou should have been able to do that too.â You sat on his bed, your wedding dress crunching up above your legs. He approached, heart hammering in his chest. âBut for what itâs worth, I consider myself lucky to call you my wife.â
You smiled and reached out to take his hand in yours. His palms were sweaty, as per usual when you were around, but you didnât seem bothered by that, pulling him so that heâd sit on the bed next to you.
âDo you mind if I try something ?â You asked him, a bit hesitantly. He took a sharp inhale of air, his body straightening up with sudden tension. In appearance, he seemed quite uncomfortable to be sitting so close to you, and even more now that you had asked him such a question, but he nodded despite hating being unsure of what to expect.
You moved closer, slowly. Your scent tickled his nose, he knew it by heart, he had fell asleep more than once to the faint perfume you left on the common roomâs couch pillows, usually prompting him to dream of you. He felt your soft, warm breath caress his skin, indicating that your face was inching impossibly close towards his. He held his breath as you pressed your delicate lips to his, giving him a chaste kiss to seal your union, far from prying eyes.
He kept his eyes closed when you moved away, conflicted emotions passing on his face. He wasnât expecting to feel so many tingles in his stomach after such a light and short kiss, yet even now that you had moved away, he still felt millions of butterflies tingling under his skin. He left out the breath he had been holding, taking just enough air to say your name, softly.
âIâm sorry, I just wanted to know what it felt like.â You apologized, and he knew from the sound of your voice that you must be blushing.
He had wondered what it would feel like to kiss you too, more than heâd like to admit. A friend shouldnât be curious about such things, it felt wrong to him, like he was betraying you by having such intimate thoughts about you. He hated how conflicted he felt whenever he woke up with an erection because he had spent the night dreaming of you touching him, and he hated how his primal instinct sometimes took over and heâd end up brushing against your chest or your back under the pretense that he couldnât see what he was doing. He shouldnât feel so desperate for his friend to kiss him again, and surely he shouldnât want to be given permission to explore the body of his friend in details⌠But perhaps, if such desires werenât acceptable between friends, they could be considered reasonable ones to have for his wifeâŚ
âDonât apologize, weâre married now after all.â He gulped, feeling the temperature of his body rising. âKissing is one of the many things that will be expected from us.â
You moved, suddenly growing agitated next to him. He could hear the rustle of the fabric of your wedding dress, the sound of clasps being opened and knots getting untied. He didnât dare to move, not even breathe, as he carefully listened for a clue as to what you were up to. Then, he felt your hands on his chest, slowly undoing the buttons of his vest, one by one.
âWhat are you doing ?â He asked, his breath catching in his throat when his hands, resting on his lap, brushed against your bare thighs.
âAnother thing that is expected of us.â You simply replied, now dragging his vest down his shoulders, before repeating the same actions to remove his shirt. He heard your surprised, yet quiet, gasp and the way your breathing became labored at the sight of his chest. He felt your fingers tracing the lines of his abs, brushing against the blond hair under his navel and grazing the elastic of his pants.
He said your name in a whisper, wanting it to be a warning but coming out like a desperate plea. You shouldnât be touching him like this, not because it was what your families required of you. You should only do it because you wanted to. So he knew he had to stop you before it went too far, before he wouldnât be able to refuse, before his body was set ablaze by his repressed lust for yours otherwise, there would be no way of stopping him anymore. He would consume you. Worship you. Devour you. And his promise to never disrespect you would be just a distant memory already, because none of the things he wanted to do to you were respectable.
But you werenât making it easy for him to keep his word. Your hand was still tracing the lines of his chest like he was some kind of sculpture you were admiring, taking in every detail like he would. And when you moved to sit on his lap, straddling him and trapping him between you and the bed, he tensed up and groaned.
He brought his hands to your hips, telling himself that heâd gently guide you off of him so that heâd be able to remain a gentleman and not take advantage of the admirable loyalty you had for your family with your determination to complete your marital duties right away, but when he felt nothing but your warm skin under his fingers, when you leaned forward to press your naked chest against his and plant another soft kiss on his lips, the remaining of his will power to resist you dissolved.
âWe shouldnât be doing this, weâre friends.â He said, because that was what he usually told himself whenever he thought about you while rubbing himself in the shower. Except he wasnât the one gripping on his erection this time. You had easily opened up his pants and now the evidence of his desire for you was held tightly in your hand. Your thumb stroked the tip of his erection, spreading the clear drop of precum that had escaped from it over the sensitive pink skin.
âWeâre not friends anymore, Ominis. Weâre married.â You corrected him, your words destroying the only argument he had to convince himself to not behave like some kind of wild animal as he couldnât seem to stop his hands from exploring your naked body. âI wasnât allowed to organize my wedding, chose my dress or invite my friends⌠Donât rob me from having a beautiful wedding night. Please.â
His erection twitched in your hand. You were asking so nicely, so politely, for something so intense and passionate, it made him even harder. He put his arm around your waist, securely holding you as he removed you from his lap and laid you down on his bed with a strength you never expected him to have.
âAre you sure this is what you want ?â He inquired, holding himself above you with his hands gripping the headboard, his pants and underwear down to his knees.
âAbsolutely.â You confirmed, with a shudder of excitement.
âVery well.â His voice was low, revealing just how badly he wanted this too. He placed a hand on your knee and followed the path all the way up to your core. He could feel the wetness and warmth coming from your center, begging for his attention. He traced the slit between your legs a few times, making you gasp with anticipation. Then, he pushed a finger passed your entrance, your whimper resounding in his ears. He moved his hand in a back and forth motion, not really aiming to pleasure you this way but trying to memorize a path he couldnât see.
He took his finger out, bringing his hand back to his impatient cock. He wiped your wetness over his tip, mixing it with the fresh drops of precum that coated his skin. Once most of his hard length was slick and sticky, he brought his tip exactly where his finger had been, rubbing it between your wet folds to gather even more moisture before finally pushing it inside you. He heard you gasp loudly and he did too, the tightness of your cunt taking him by surprise.
He easlily managed to slide even deeper, burying his entire length inside of you with a satisfied sigh. He could hear your panting breaths, your soft cries in reaction to his movements inside you and the way you moaned his name, encouraging him to rock his hips against yours a few times.
It was nothing like he had thought it would be. His hand had never made him feel as good as you did, your warmth, wetness and tightness around him were intoxicating. The most wonderful thing he had ever experienced.
He slowly pulled himself almost all the way out, only to shove himself back in with more force. He could feel his tip hitting deep inside you, pleasure building in his abdomen with each of his quick pushes.
The sounds you made were music to his ears, the way you reacted to each of his thrusts was delightful, better than what he had imagined in his most vivid fantasies. He never expected you to be so loud, perfectly showing him how good he was making you feel. He increased his speed and you moaned even louder, practically crying out his name.
He felt your legs closing around his waist, keeping him close while your nails dug into his back, the whole bed shaking in rythym with his movements. Was he too rough ? How could he not be ? It was impossible to be more gentle when the pleasure he felt with each thrust kept intensifying, he was going to lose his mind, chasing the feeling, building it up until he couldnât take it anymore.
You cried out one more time and your body tensed up, tightening around him so viciously that he finally reached his climax, instantly filling you up with his release. You kept your legs around him, your body spasming with intense pleasure as he struggled to catch his breath for a moment, his thoughts slowly coming back into order.
He waited until your body stopped twitching to remove himself, feeling your shudder as he pulled his spent erection out of you. You still were softly panting, your chest rising and falling under his hand while the other still clasped tightly the headboard. He leaned over, easily finding your lips from which breathless gasps still escaped. He kissed you, gently, as a way to apologize for losing control of himself and felt relieved when you returned his kiss even more fervently.
He moved to his side, lying down next to you to give you enough space to catch your breath but you inched closer, nuzzling your naked body against his in a cuddle that felt even more intimate than what he had just did to you.
âThank you.â You said softly, sounding truly happy. Ominis smiled, his fingers absently caressing your back, playing with strands of your now messy hair. âIâm glad to have you as my husband.â
Husband. The word turned in his head, reminding him that you now were officially a couple. Mrs Ominis Gaunt; his best friend, his wife, his lover⌠His.

painfully needy Rolan going into rut
Had this on the brain lately. I don't think it would take much to make Rolan an absolute mess but imagine how worse it would be when he's going into rut. Boy would snap so fast
Rolan x afab non-tiefling reader
Have some đĽspicyđĽ musings
*this went longer than I wanted lol. But if you like it tell me if you want more đ§Ą
â Rolan had been doing this dance with you for months now. Both working at Sorcerous Sundries you saw each other regularly, even tried to work together as much as possible (not that he'd ever admit that). The banter, the playful mockery leading to not so subtle flirtation was easy until now.
â The conversations didn't flow like before. A joke about becoming a doe eyed scarcely dressed maiden -like the ones on the covers of those novels you so enjoy- suddenly lead his mind to wander. Any wisecrack replaced with the image of you gazing at him so lustfully. An image that stays with him for the rest of the day (and night).
â Lia and Cal are very vocal about his uptick in irritability. He tries to ignore them but they're not wrong. Ever little thing sets him off. He's frustrated at himself. For letting the feelings get so far without truely noticing. For being too proud or too embarrassed to act on them.
âHe often forgets his words as his eyes lingered on your lips, your neck, your figure. More than once you caught him staring and to his surprise no offense was taken. Just a quizzical look, perhaps a soft smile that flooded his face with warmth.
âRolan would have almost preferred you'd have met him with anger. Now the hope of you ran rampant through him. That if he was ever to give in he may be met with the embrace he so longed for. The need for you was growing by the day. He even took care to not stand to closely to you now. He coursed himself for it. How had he become so starved for affection that even the scent of you sprung his body to life.
âThe wizard had spent many nights forced to take action if he was to ever find sleep. He'd be tangled in his sheets, hair wild, trusting violently into his own fist. He tries to keep his fantasies to more abstract forms of pleasure but as hard as he tries the vague shapes melt into crystal clear images of you. It would always be you around him like a vice that would push him over the edge.
â There were times he'd lose himself so throughly he'd cry out your name as he came. Embarrassed by this lack of control, Rolan told himself it was better to happen here than in front of you.
â Going into work that morning something felt off. Rolan's whole body felt extra sensitive, aching. The horrible thought finally struck him at midday. Was he going into rut? Now!? With such little warning? He calms himself. He's not certain after all.
â Until he's been paired with you to clean out and old study turned storage room. He's hyper aware of your scent. Its filling his lungs,making his knees weak. The room isn't exactly small but it's stuffed with stacks of books making moving around a problem. You're constantly having to squeeze (delightfully, terrifyingly) close to each other.
â Luckily you're busying yourself with the task at hand. Rolan prays you won't notice how red (red-er) his face is or the sizable bulge he's currently cloaking with a stack of books. The straining against his pants is almost painful. He's eyeing the door, anything to escape the heat building in his blood.
âHis eyes fall back to you and all notions of making a run for it leave his mind. Along with everything else that isn't right in front of him. You looked a vision, standing on and old box body spread across the book self as you attempt to reach something on the top shelf. Not only was it a perfect view of your form, it reminded him of a pose one might see in an old painting.
âSuddenly the box wobbled threatening to send you falling backwards. Your scream was cut short as you felt Rolan catch you, arms wrap around your middle tightly pressing you to him. His face buried in your hair he couldn't help utter a deep groan. The wave of intoxicating aroma washing away his last bit of restraint.
âWith ease he flips you around, pressing you into the shelf, a maon escaping your lips. Your hands came to his chest not to push him away but in a gentle caress.
â'Rolan? Please,' was hardly out on your mouth when they were swallowed by his lips. He kisses you like a drowning man breaking the water's surface. Madly, desperately as if any second you may be taken away for him. Hungrily he deepens the kiss and your lips part for him with ease, both of you relishing in the taste.
âIt's only when you part for air he realizes he's been rocking his hips into you. An apology catches in his throat as you grind back against him. He's dizzy with lust, his own heartbeat pounding in his ears.
âHis lips find your neck, kissing, sucking and biting. Trying his best not to break the skin. Your moans drive him on. His hands are frantic running all over you. Soon your hands lead his to the laces on your dress. He makes quick work of it.
âRolan takes you in his arms again and lays you down on a near by table. A little too eager he tears your under things away completely. But to his awe you only laugh and spread yourself out for him to drink you in fully. You're a goddess in his eye and he intends to worship.
âWords spill senselessly from him as he lavishes you with his mouth. 'Fuck, Fuck! You're beautiful you're perfect. I need- God's, l need you I need you.' He hasn't the brain for elegance now. He's kissing you everywhere maoning words of love into your skin.
â As he makes it to your thighs he cannot help but bury is face between them. The sweet taste of your sex has him throbbing with out so much as a touch. He wants to make sure you're nice and ready for him. You're not a tiefling after all and he couldn't bare the thought of hurting you. It doesn't take long before you're dripping wet against his tongue as he slides wildly between attacking your entrance and your clit.
âYou stifle a scream as an orgasm suddenly rips through you, your thighs shaking in his grasp. Youre still panting but you pull him away, drawing him closer to you. As you pull him into a soft kiss your hands unlace his pants (finally) freeing his erection. Though to hold him lightly his gasp is sharp. He's painfully hard; his head already glistening with precum.
âAs he runs he length against your folds he tries to center himself. He doesn't want to be too rough or finish terribly fast. He wants to go slow but when he catches on your entrance he can't help but thrust into you, the relief of his agony so close. You tremble but encourage him on. His name quickly becoming a soft prayer on your lips.
âHe's wrapped inside you now, almost all the way. The pleasure overwhelming him he opts for quicker shallow thrusts. He's taken aback by how vocal he is as more sweet lustful nothings spill from him. Rolan's control is fading fast. He's practically shaking, slamming himself into you losing whatever rhythm he had. The sight of your face contorting with pleasure is pushing him to his end. He can feel the hot pull in his gut. And suddenly something else as.
âA chill runs over him as he feels the swelling at the base of his cock. He grasps it and pulls out not wanting to subject you to something he didn't even take the time to explain. In part he's too late. He didn't fully knot but he still comes hard, spilling thick ropes all over your stomach and thighs. Fuck, you're beautiful like this.
â He blushes deeply and panics, apologizing over and over. He didn't want it to be like this. You run your fingers through his hair and kiss him gently. You don't know that much about teifling biology but Gods you wanted to learn. Rolan tries to believe you, that this wouldn't scare you off.
â He adjusted his pants, somehow still as uncomfortable as before. Perhaps it was the sight of you dressing. How you made no move to do away with his mess before you did. He could take you again easily. But not here.
â You convince him to claim illness and leave work early. To take time to rest. He agrees wanting to lock himself away from the world. And yet he also agrees to meet you that night. Then he'd have a more level head. A chance to explain himself and perhaps to hold you in his arms for longer.
Xoxo thanks for reading friends â¤ď¸

Hi!
Can I please have a đ˘Ö´ŕťđŚ scream with Sirius or Remus (or both) and one bed trope? Non-magical world
ofc, i missed writing for my favorite british wizards, i hope you like it nonnie <3
join spookfest... if you dare !
ŕ˝ŕ˝˛âđŻď¸âŕ˝ŕž SIRUS BLACK may have forgotten to book a room with two bedsâbut it's not his faultâhe had other things to worry about! being james potter's best man isn't an easy task, and now here he is, stuck in a small hotel room with little more than a chair and a full size mattress. he's wishing he paid less mind to james and more to his sleeping arrangements.
he tries to make his tone convincing when he offers, "i can take the chair. s'no big deal." he's lying of course. he needs sleep for the ceremony tomorrow, but so do you. being maid of honor and all. he's sure he can sleep while everyone gets ready tomorrow. not that he wants to, but he'd be nothing if not a gentleman.
"no, it's fine. we can share." your tone is lax, shockingly different from how the circumstances are inwardly affecting you. and just like that, sirius is in the bed, head hitting the pillow and body melting into the mattress. it's when you curl in beside him that he finally realizes his situation. alone and sharing a bed with the person he's been harboring a crush on since foreverâhe can't possibly fall asleep now. there's a rush of thoughts in his mind; how tired he's going to be for his best mate's wedding if he doesn't calm down and get to bed. how undeniable your presence is beside him. how much he wants to reach out and pull you into him.
you break him out of his trance finally, voice soft when you jokingly tell him not to horde the covers. he manages a chuckle, stiffly. he's moreso focused on fighting the urge to interlock your fingers together than conversation. the bed is entirely too small, even if he would have been on his own. every shift brings you closer to him, it's pitiful how his breath hitches each time.
at least a half hour passes before he eases up. not due to anything other than your leg hitching around him and your arms finding home around his shoulders. you're peacefully asleep, but sirius falls into your touch as if you meant it. he, rather quickly, decides to face the aftermath of cuddling through the night tomorrow. for nowâhe indulges.

Holy, Holy, Lover Divine
Pairing: Gale x Fem Reader
Summary: You've never felt worthy of praise, until it's Gale kneeling at your feet.
Warnings: Implied sexual content, religious imagery, Gale may get a bit blasphemous ha
Word Count: approx 1300
A/N: Just another little Gale ficlet because I love him so much and this idea has been in my head for ages. Thanks for reading!
In this moment, you feel divine.
The term has followed you around, exaltations such as âsaviourâ, or âgoddessâ leaving the lips of those youâd saved. But it had never felt right, never felt like such praise should be heaped upon a mere mortal. Right place, right time, is what you always assumed should be your words. A simple soul who simply had the means to do what needed to be done. Hardly god-like, hardly worthy of the celestial.
But here, in the privacy of your bedchamber, under the gaze of your beloved, you finally understand that you are holy.
âYou are beautiful,â Gale breathes, dark eyes roving over your face, your body, âI swear, there is no more magnificent creature on this plane or any other.â You feel your skin heat beneath your new nightgown, a flimsy scrap of gossamer lace youâd chosen with him in mind. It seems to be well appreciated.
âDonât let the gods hear such blasphemy,â you murmur, wanting to both further expose yourself to him as well as shyly hide away, âa few of them might disagree.â
Gale shrugs, and you watch the motion of his broad shoulders greedily. âLet them hear me. I no longer care what sheâŚ.what any of them think of me, of who and what I devote myself to. That right was lost long ago.â
Your eyebrows raise, but you are not surprised. Magic may still be bound to a goddess, but your lover has long stopped bending a knee. Prayers are offered not out of love, but duty, necessity. He gives thanks for the Weave, for spells and knowledge. But he hungers for her treasures no more.
She has long lost his piety, and you do not complain.
âOh?â, you say coyly, shifting so your gown slides further up your thighs. You do not miss Galeâs eyes following the movement intently, and your skin burns with want. âAnd what are you devoted to now, Gale of Waterdeep? Where does your worship lie?â
Gale strides towards you, slow and measured, like a cat waiting to pounce. You know what he will say, but you want to hear it all the same. You want to bathe in it, this new feeling of righteousness, of being the idol of such great love and passion. This man makes you feel as if you have wings on your back and a halo over your head.
You vow you will not squander it.
âI am in service of a new goddess now,â he says, and mirth twinkles in his lust-glazed eyes. Your lips quirk upward-your wizard of words is about display his prowess.
âThis,â he gestures to the room you share, to the bed youâve come together in more times than you can count, âthis is my temple. The sacred place I give my humble sacrifices, make my loving prayers, pledge my undying service.â
Heâs close enough to touch now, bare chest within reach of your gluttonous fingers. Before you can grasp what you crave, his catches your hand in his, bringing it to his lips to press small kisses to your fingertips.
âThese are my offerings,â he guides your hand to touch his temple, down to his chest, and further, further, until your finger brush over his desire. You whimper eagerly. âMy mind, my heart and my body, all given freely and eagerly to please the one who has saved me time and time again from my own folly.â
He drops your hand and nudges your legs apart, sinking to his knees as he slots himself between them. You think you might combust with how hot the flame of passion is burning within you. Gale never fails to set you on fire from the inside out, but it seems tonight he aims to upstage himself.
âThis is my altar,â his voice grows more sinful, his eyes even darker, âthe place I will kneel in reverence eternal. Day after day, night after night, I will worship here, a thrall in my Ladyâs service. For as long as she will have me.â
He leans forward, lips pressing against your inner thigh. You mewl softly, threading your fingers through his silky hair. Encouraged by your ragged breaths, he roams the giving flesh freely, littering your thighs with warm, bruising kisses.
âThese are my hymns, my canticles of homage. I will bestow them upon every inch of this heavenly flesh. As many and as often as my Lady allows."
A gentle, teasing kiss is placed over your smallcothes. You gasp and tug him closer, a spark of white hot pleasure shooting up your spine.
âGale,â you beg, thinking you may just go mad from his teasing, his honeyed words. âGale, please-â
But instead of continuing, Gale pulls back and surges upwards, capturing your mouth in a heady kiss. You delightedly take what you are given, groaning as his taste explodes on your tongue. You will never get enough of kissing him, you decide. Gale always kisses you like heâs trying to crawl inside of you. Like he's trying to merge not only your bodies, but your very souls as well.
It never fails to set you on fire.
âThis is my baptism,â he pants as he breaks your kiss, fingers flexing on your thighs, barely concealed restraint pulled taught like a bowstring. âI am cleansed of my sins, my foolish ideals, my bitter and lonely existence. To feel my Lady's love and desire in every kiss, every touch, every time I am inside of her- it is to be born anew."
Gale does not stay parted from you for long; his lips soon find their way to your neck, his fingers brushing your sensitive skin reverently.
And you are drowning. You whine and whimper and mumble intelligible pleas as your lover ravishes you with lovebites and praises. You fingers tangle in his hair and you pull-the groan that rumbles from his throat nearly makes your eyes kiss the back of your skull.
âLet me worship you,â Gale moans into your skin, pushing the straps of your nightgown down your shoulders. His mouth ghosts over the tops of your breasts. Gooseflesh rises in it wake. "Let me show you my supplication."
"As if you aren't already," you giggle breathlessly, falling back on the bed as Gale crawls over you. You welcome the heat of his body as it hovers above yours, close but not nearly close enough.
"Oh, you know I can do so much more," he grins wolfishly, eager hands helping you to slip off your nightgown. When you are spread nude before him, he slides out of his own trousers, laughing as your eager hands grope at every inch of bare skin they can reach.
"Shall I love you now, my Lady?" he asks, settling between your legs. A gentle hand cups your cheek, and you melt into the tender touch. "It is all I desire."
You brush a stray lock of hair away from his beautiful brown eyes. Happiness bleeds through the air around you, encasing the two of you in a world all your own. A sanctum most sacred and blessed.
"Love me then,â you sigh dreamily, âlove me, and know how much I love you in return, you darling, wonderful, worthy man.â
And oh, how you are adored! How your lover makes your body and soul sing, more radiant and joyous than a choir of angels. How he plays your desire over and over, bliss unending, until you are left boneless and spent, a puddle of happiness in his arms.
And as you lay cradled carefully against Gale, enveloped in his ardor, you feel as if you are weightless. There is no more stain upon your soul, no mortal tarnish on your skin. No fear, no insecurity, no wondering. You are eternal. You are blessed.
You are divine.

The thing that I love most about Downfall thus far (with the understanding that this may not hold when the pressure is really on, but that makes it even more delicious) is how every god wields so much conviction. And of course they do! Doubt is for mortals, who must rely on faith; the gods are faith incarnate, and have no room for doubt.
But at the same time, it's nothing akin to blind faithâit's the kind of ruthless certainty that the best paladins wield: that the path they have chosen, the domain they serve, guides their actions. It's this conviction that causes such a clash among them, even among the allied gods, even in this time of truce. It's this conviction that has led them each to believe that this threat must be addressed, but that same conviction means they each have strong and unyielding ideas of how to proceed from here.
They hold certainly in themselves and their domains, and, when their domains overlap, in their siblings. When their domains are at odds, however, there can be no reconciliation, and little room for compromise, because to act against their own domains is to act against their very nature and purpose.
This is what the planetars truly loatheâthat they had purpose, and it has been stolen. This is what Aeor and the wizards of the Age of Arcanumâperhaps mortals as a wholeâcannot comprehend, because their nature, purpose, and ultimately their goal is by design to be and become more than singular.
But the gods, for all they are bound to their domains, are not singular, and in fact most of them remember what it is to be infinite. They ruthlessly and unyieldingly manage the razor's edge of the complexities of their mission in Aeor. "No love in faltering." When the world is in chaos, the gods must act as they believe right without hesitation, because that is how they love.
More the pity that their allegiances, so split between mortals and each other, draw their paths ever closer back to blows. It will be interesting to find out if their convictions carry them there because of the fate of Aeor, or in spite of it.

Your sister who you love so much (even though youâve never shown it) asks you to be her sister again, her true sister, in deed not just in name. And yes, of course thatâs what you want. Thatâs what youâve always wanted and now that sheâs shattered your defenses and destroyed the ones who would pit you against each other and died right before your eyes, how could you refuse? How could your answer be anything but yes?
So you go home with her, not the ruins of your perfectly posh prison, but a new home which provides love and care and bunk beds and itâs so so nice. Ridiculously nice. Sickeningly nice. And a small, sick part of you almost misses your old home (if you can even call it a home) because yes, it was cruel and awful and you hated every second of it but you knew where you fit. You knew what your role was. You donât fit in here. Everyone accepts you because theyâre all so nice, but they donât know how to volley back your sharp words or find a hidden, âI love youâ within an offhanded insult.Â
And then your sister leaves to save the world again because thatâs who she is. Sheâs the kind of person who goes out to save the world with her friends when sheâs needed and youâre not. Youâre not, not, not. Not on any count. You donât save things, you destroy them. And friends? You have to allow yourself to be vulnerable for friends so of course thatâs out. Your sister is 16 and sheâs out saving the world for the third time and you, fully grown at 18, are a wanted criminal who hasnât even properly graduated from high school. You canât stop thinking about it and, without your sister and her friends occupying the house as a buffer, the ones who are left try to get you to talk about it so you make a rash decision, as you are wont to do. You leave, like a thief in the night. You can make your own way. You can. Youâll prove it.
You find a shitty apartment and pay for it with the ill-gotten spoils from one of your many exploits. You could probably pawn some treasure for more luxurious accommodationsâthere is that chest of rubies just lying aroundâbut you donât. Thatâs not what you deserve. And what if your sister needs help later? You donât have access to your parental funds anymore which means she doesnât either. You know she wonât ask anyone for helpâyou wouldnât. But someone has to look after her. Youâre an abjuration wizard. You protect people. You protect her. No, thatâs a lie. But you want to make it not a lie. You want to start now.
If youâre saving the rubies then you need a source of income. You narrow down your least villainous talents to try and find a suitable job and hit on teacher. Youâre good at magic, right? So how hard can teaching it be? Hopefully not as hard as securing the job, which proves trickier than expected because, oh right, youâre a wanted criminal who hasnât graduated high school. But you dip into your villainous talents once more and tell yourself itâs for a good cause. You secure the job. Youâre doing it. Youâre making your own way.Â
You want to text your sister to see if sheâs doing alright but you donât want to intrude and you donât want to answer any questions about what youâve been doing because then either youâll have to lie or explain that youâve left again, right after you promised youâd be there. Both options make your heart ache, especially since itâs her birthday. So you wait until the house is empty (mostly emptyâyouâre never really alone in a haunted house) and enter the room you and your sister shared for too brief a time. You paint her walls with carefully rendered runes, filled with all your abjuration magic and stamped with your arcane mark. Itâs a possessive bit of spellcraft. A selfish claiming of a climactic kill. You mean to make a different kind of claim. You are claiming your sister, as she asked you to months ago. You are telling the world that she will not be fucked with while you live. Your rooms were so close before. You could hear her. You knew every night she went to bed in the grips of a panic attack with no one to console her. She wonât have to feel unsafe in her own room again. You can make sure of that at least.Â
The sun rises one morning and you know that means your sister is alive and well and coming home. You teleport to Falinel to make sure she returns to her favorite dessert. Itâs worth the spell slot and the chance of being recognized. The tower where they kept you is long destroyed and you know that this time, if you were ever captured or even killed, rescue wouldnât be measured in a matter of months. It would be days. Hours even if your clever sister and her powerful divination magic put things together faster. The thought fills you with more emotion than you know what to do with. You leave a note. âI love you,â you think. âEnjoy the nemesis ward,â you write.Â
Practicing magic, as it turns out, is a very different skill than teaching magic. The children are loud and obnoxious and you donât quite realize that maybe your expectations are too high between the hothouse you grew up in and your sister being the worldâs greatest diviner, fullstop. You know you can always go back to the manor, but that somehow makes it easier to stick it out. Youâve always been taught that pressure provides the best results but thereâs something about the security of a safety net that makes everything a bit more bearable. And so what if you have to take a second job involving a light criminal element. Youâre only smugglingâthatâs barely even a real crime.
Your sister who has saved the world thrice now, texts you and she wants help. She is looking to you for help. And you do your best to oblige. You offer your knowledge, you offer your rubies, you invite her over again and again. She sends you a text and deletes it. Youâre not the diviner in the family but you drain your spell slots scrying for information you already know. Information that you'll hear from her own lips in just a few hours. âI love you.â
She finally visits and youâre not unaware of the state of your apartment. You know youâve been too exhausted for an Unseen Servant or even a round of Prestidigitations but you know that your sister has seen your mind and thereâs nothing messier about you than that. She teases you and you tease her back. Sheâs the only one who understands how to deliver a complement with a backhand so you can receive it without your skin crawling. The only one who knows how much tartness you need with your sweetness.Â
Later, she visits again. She sits in your filthy apartment and you watch trash TV and itâs the highlight of your week. Your month even. That should feel pathetic but, somehow it doesnât. You want to tell her. She deserves to hear it from time to time without having to filter out the layers of prickliness that you add as second nature, a layer of armor as ever present as your abjurerâs ward. You may not be able to handle naked sentiment but she can. Youâve seen her with her friends. How affectionate they are. Youâve always been taught that loose lips sink ships but you have experience with ship sinking and this prospect fills you with much less dread. You tell her and itâs awkward and fumbling but you manage. Maybe loving people isnât so different from loving cats.
You have a new job which is perfect because the school year is almost over and, blackmail or no, you arenât sure how many times youâll be able to get away with casting Sleep on your class to give yourself a break. Honestly, you should have applied for jobs in Leviathan from the start. Why would pirates care about your sketchy history and lack of credentials? You could teleport yourself to Leviathan every day but that would be a waste of a spell slot when the door to the Compass Points is right there in the manor (and if your sister happens to be there too then hey, happy coincidence). While youâre there, you might as well do your laundry. And stay for dinner from time to time. And spend time with your sister in your her room where your runes stand sentinel and your old bunk lays untouched. You donât think youâre staring but later, as you go to grab a snack from the kitchen your sister throws you a casual, over the shoulder glance.Â
âYou can just move back in, if you want.â
And would it really be that easy? Just like that? After a year of trying to make a point or a plan or a better version of yourself or whatever? Just like that?Â
You remember a year ago. You and your sister and words that will be burned into your mind forever.Â
âDespite the fact that you have not earned it, I do love you.â
Just like that.Â
You say yes. You stay.Â

HARRY POTTER HCS !!
FIRST âI LOVE YOUâ !!
prompt: harry potter characters and their first âi love youâs in relationships
characters included: harry potter, ron weasley, hermione granger, draco malfoy, ginny weasley, seamus finnigan, fred weasley, george weasley
warnings: you and seamus smoking in seamusâ part, swearing, physical abuse in georgeâs part
harry j. potterâŚ
who said it: harry
when: 5th year
âcmon⌠just a little bit more..â harry cooed patiently, hands placed on your hips. âforget it, harry. i donât think iâll ever get it right.â you sighed, wanting to throw your wand down on the ground.
dumbledoreâs army had just begun merely a few sessions ago, and no matter how hard you tried, you couldnât get your patronous just right.
maybe it was because you upset professor dolores umbridge today and pushed her far beyond her limits (not even on purpose, for that matter). or maybe itâs because colin creevey was stuck way too far up your arsehole whenever you would do something wrong when it came to todayâs D.A session.
âwell, maybe i can give you a happy memory to think about.â harry suggested. âhow on earth do you plan to do that?â you questioned, wary of what he may do.
âmaybeâŚlike this.â
and with that, harry began to scan your lips with his, feeling for all the fine details that no one else would get to see but himself.
harry felt you smile against his own lips before pulling away, with a lopsided grin smearing his cheeks.
âi love you.â harry smiled, sounding as if heâs been waiting a century to say those words to you.
âi love you too.â
ron b. weasleyâŚ
who said it: him
when: 3rd year
âoh no!! oh no no no..!!â the ginger boy roared as he was being dragged by the foot by the black-furred dog (unbeknownst to him, which was sirius black), âi canât die yet!! i havenât told (y/n) how much i love her yet!!â
âyou bloody moron, sheâs right here!!â the shorter bushy haired girl replied, slightly jealous it was her best friends name and not her own.
âi love you, (y/n)! if i die, i promise my ghost will haunt you!!â ron shouted before being dragged away out of sight.
âi love you too!â you yelped, hoping he could still hear you.
hermione j. grangerâŚ
who said it: you
when: 7th year
âi know this isnât much⌠but i wanted to be able to do something for you for our anniversary.â hermione said, rubbing her neck in pure embarrassment.
you, hermione, harry, and ron were on a hunt to look for all of voldemortâs horcurxes, and because of that, you all were staying in a rubbish tent in the woods.
the tent was empty for the most part, other than the small radio player that had muggle romance music on it.
âharry and ron are out of our hairâŚwell for now anyway. i told them to go look for anything that could be useful, i just wanted to have a nice 3 months you.â
âyou kicked them out for me?â you asked, disbelief leaving your throat.
âwell yes â and i know itâs not much but-â the brunette wouldâve continued if you didnât interrupt her, and she gives a slight pout because of it.
âbut it is much, it is something âmione! it is because i love you.â
âi- uhm. repeat yourself, please?â
âi love you, hermione.â
draco l. malfoyâŚ
who said it: him
when: 6th year
âisnât that right, ms. (y/n)?â the barely human wizard, voldemort, said, looking at you from the other side of table.
you gulped quietly, your shoulders stiffening. âyes, sir.â you murmured, glancing at the platinum blonde boy next to you before averting your gaze.
you and draco grew up together - as your mothers were very close in their teenage years, your fathers, not so much. but they got along okay.
when draco first became part of the death eaters, his mother decided itâd be easiest to have you there, to make it a little less hard on him.
âexcuse me for a moment.â draco mumbled, somewhat abruptly, as lucius and the lord were in the middle of a conversation. draco stood up within the blink of an eye, and sped walked out of the room.
âwould you be a dear and check on him for me, honey?â narcissa leaned over and whispered in your ear, as you were seated between draco and his mother.
you gave a small half-smile with a nod, as you politely excused yourself, afraid of what voldemort could do if you had done it in a way of which he didnât like.
you went around the halls of malfoy manor, the walls of which most of your childhood memories took place, as sad as that is.
you saw a crack in the door of dracoâs room, and you opened the door a tad more
draco said there, looking down at his folded hands, not saying anything.
âare you okay?â you asked, even though you already knew the answer.
âthose meetingsâŚget to me, sometimes.â the blonde mumbled, his voice cracking slightly.
âme too..â you answered, rubbing your hand up and down his back, as you sat next to him.
âthank you, for always being here. iâve spent my whole life with you, i never want to let you go.â draco said, giving a small smile.
âi wonât ever leave you behind, okay?â
âthis is exactly why i fell in love with you all those years ago.â
âwaitâŚwhat?â you denied, your voice quiet.
âyou heard me, i love you (y/n).â
ginevera m. weasleyâŚ
who said it: her
when: 5th year (well 4th year for her)
âhey (y/n)!â a familiar, high, squeaky voice called out to you, sounding a bit distant.
âoh, hi, ginny.â you half smiled, looking down at the younger girl.
âi need to talk to you, now.â ginny asked â well demanded, but she meant to ask.
youâve known ginny long enough at this point to know sometimes, when she wants to ask a question, it can accidentally turn into a demand. especially, when sheâs nervous.
âokay, no problem.â you reported, knowing exactly what she was going to say.
she grabs your wrist with a firm grip â but not firm enough for your to be hurt. and walks you down to a more empty side of the hogwarts express.
âi love you. and quite frankly, i hate it when you spend more time with my brothers and less time with me because itâs not fair, i fancy you!â the smaller ginger insisted, with a small stomp of her foot to show she meant what she said.
âi love you too, donât worry, gin.â you spoke, as you tucked a string of hair behind her ear, that was before in the middle of her face.
she gave a lopsided grin before happily skipping off and giving a sing-songy goodbye.
seamus d. finniganâŚ
who said it: him
when: 4th year
the yule ball of the 1994 school year was slowly coming to a close, but you were unable to find where your date had ran off to, one moment he was with his best friend, dean thomas â and now you have no bloody clue where he is.
there was only one placed you hadnât looked yet â the astronomy tower.
you begin your walk up the tower of many staircases and you hear some intense coughing the higher and higher you reach.
before your eyes, you see your boyfriend â or date, or technically boy friend, as the relationship between the two of you is a bit complicated, with a cigarette between his fingers.
âhey seamus.â you say, as you sit down next to him, leaning into his touch.
âhi doll.â he says, grinning as he puts an arm around your waist.
âcan i smoke with you?â
âabsolutely not, angel!â seamus gasps, shocked, putting a dramatized hand to his chest, his mouth open a gap.
âhuh? why not?â you asked, now just confused.
âbecause! i love you! iâm not letting a gorgeous goddess inhale that shit!â seamus replied, now tossing his cigarette away into the distance.
âyou love me?â
âwith every inch my body stands.â
fred g. weasleyâŚ
who said it: him
when: 5th year (3rd book/movie)
âi donât know how you could even do this, i donât know what half of this is supposed to to mean..â your ginger boyfriend said, cuddled up into your side, as the two of you studied for the following potions exams.
âwell, to make itâs quite simple, itâs just seeing it on paper is the hard part.â you said, nudging him slightly, to make sure he wouldnât fall asleep again.
âoh, how so?â he asked.
âwell actually you take the-â
and before you could get any further, your boyfriend pecked you on the lips.
âsorry, at first i was interested and then i just didnât care anymore.â fred said with a chuckle.
âfred gideon weasley!!â
âiâm sorry, i love you, does that make it better?â
âi⌠yes.â
george g. weasleyâŚ
who said it: him
when: 7th year (5th book/movie)
i mustnât make mistakes any longer.
i mustnât make mistakes any longer.
i mustnât make mistakes any longer.
i mustnât make mistakes any longer.
i mustnât make mistakes any longer.
the words on your arm continued to ring in your ear, like the tangy feeling on your tongue after eating spicy foods.
none of this wouldâve happened if you didnât snap at the new d.a.d.a teacher - dolores umbridge.
the torturous (literally), cruel woman put you through so much pain in one detention.
donât get me wrong, youâve gotten detention once in 2nd year, but this could never compare.
the words on your arm were the ones that made you cry terrifying sobs as you had to continue to write and write and write - thanks to your low physical pain tolerance and somewhat sensitive heart, you just couldnât bare it.
sprinkles of raindrops began to form in your eyes, they ground onto the table you were sitting at, as you tried to rub your eyes before anyone happened to notice.
âhey, love, are you okay?â george weasley - your boyfriend asked, scurrying over to you.
your arm was angled in the correcting lighting and point of view to where the taller ginger could see your scars perfectly.
âblimey!â your boyfriend shouted, pointing, before madam prince gave him a stern shooshing.
âwhat happened?â
you clung onto him immediately, sobbing quietly,
âhey love â itâs okay, i love you, iâm here and i always will be.â

More Culinary Wizard MC Shenanigans:
*against all better judgment, someone invited Solomon to dinner and he managed to sneak his way into the kitchen with MC by distracting Mammon (the guard) with loose change. After the main meal has been plated and the brothers have taken their seats, he comes out carrying a tray of mini-sandwiches with a big ol'smile on his face*
Solomon, the human who ruins any dish he touches: Hold on, everyone! I made appetizers!
The Brothers: đ¨
MC, the human who can make anything taste wonderful: I helped!
The Brothers: .....
Mammon: Family Meeting!!
*the brothers get up and huddle together in the corner, whispering*
Belphie: I'm not eating that.
Beel: But MC helped this time...
Lucifer: It could be edible.
Levi: They haven't made a bad meal, yet...
Satan: But is it worth the risk?
Mammon: How do we even tell'em if we don't wanna eat it?
Asmo: What if it makes them mad and they stop cooking for us all together...???
Brothers: .....
*after coming to a consensus to not upset MC by hurting Solomon's feelings, they go back to their seats where Solomon has already put one of his sandwiches on their plates*
Solomon: Go on, don't be shy!
*the brothers all eye each other and pick up the sandwiches in unison. A silent stare down occurs with no one wanting to go first until Mammon finally snaps and takes a bite. The others gasp and the room is silent*
Mammon: *looks straight ahead, frozen*
Levi: M-Mammon...?
Mammon: *does an experimental chew, then a couple more*
Asmo: Whatâs going on? Is it bad??
Mammon: *swallows... and takes a second bite, earning another collective gasp*
Lucifer: Mammon, say something!!
Mammon: It's... *feels tears welling up in his eyes*
Mammon: ... okay.
*the brothers stare down at their own sandwiches and each take their own bites. It is a perfectly average sandwich, mediocre even. Nothing special about aside from one thing: it's edible*
*cue seven grown demons finishing their plates while barely holding back tears of relief*
MC: See, Solomon? They love it!!
Solomon: *extremely proud of himself, probably marking this day on his calendar later*
Solomon: This must be my best recipe yet! đ
This "recipe" is PB&J.
