Matt’s hands slide over his watch face for the time. “Do you guys think you can handle things here for the rest of the day?” he asks his friends.

“I think we can handle it,” Foggy hums, taking in the quiet office space around them. “You have a date with that girl, don’t you? Or is it a different one?”

“Nope, it should be the same girl,” Karen says. “It’s still within the time frame.”

Matt furrows his brows as he turns toward his friends. “Time frame?”

“Do we really need to go over this again, Mr. Serial Dater?” Foggy sighs. “How many girls did you see last year alone?”

“I don’t—.”

“Ten,” Karen supplements. “I mean, technically, it was nine because you dated the same girl twice, but they all fizzled out just as soon as they started. None of them lasted over two months.”

“And that’s not counting hookups we don’t know about. If my math is right, we’re almost at the two month mark in—.” Foggy turns to look at the calendar hanging on the wall to confirm. “—about a half of a week.”

“Thank you for the countdown, Father Time, but I don’t see that happening with her. She’s different.”

“Do we at least get her name? Since she’s so different than the others, that is,” Karen tries hopefully, and Matt can tell she’s eagerly biting her lip.

“(Y/N),” he concedes. “Her name is (Y/N). (Y/N/N).”

“Ooh, full name and a nickname. Are you treating (Y/N) to a fancy night out?” Foggy asks.

“Nope,” Matt grins, sliding on his jacket.

“Oh?” Karen hums. “Finally going to bring her to Josie’s?”

“So you guys can just happen to stroll in? No,” Matt continues to smile. “Not that it’s any of your business, but that’s where we met.”

“So, no fancy restaurant, no Josie’s . . .”

“I’m cooking for her at my place tonight. Happy now?”

Foggy and Karen ooh at him like a bunch of fifth graders.

“Well, here’s hoping she’s a heavy sleeper in case you hear a bank robbery across town and need to suit up.”

“Well, she knows.”

He can tell the way that they look at him, absolutely stunned. “Knows?” Karen repeats.

Matt puts his fingers up by his head to mimic his devil horns.

“EXCUSE ME?” Foggy shouts.

“It’s a long story, guys, and I have a dinner to prepare.”

“Let us know when the wedding is!” Foggy shouts as Matt leaves the office. “Knows . . . She knows! . . .”

Matt finishes plating the food before lighting the candles on the table, blowing out the match as he freezes in his tracks. His senses are good—he can always tell when you’re near, even though you haven’t been seeing one another long. But this time, even though you’re about a block away, it feels like you’re so much closer. Your scent is much stronger than usual. It’s not perfume, shampoo, or detergent clinging to your dress—it’s you. Matt can practically taste you on his tongue when he lets out a deep breath through his mouth, and it drives him wild. His thoughts are fuzzy, and all he can think of is how he wants his hands on you, dragging over every dip and curve of your body right until he’s between—.

Matt practically jumps out of his skin when you rap at his door. With one more deep breath and a quick adjustment to his pants, he makes his way to the door, swinging it open and greeting you with a warm smile. As soon as the door is even open a crack, you drown his senses. He feels almost drunk, and he just wants you.

“Hi,” he smiles, leaning in for a kiss. You meet him halfway, pressing your front flush against his, resting a gentle hand on his waist. He pulls you in even further, desperately trying to deepen the kiss. You smile and giggle into the embrace before you lean back and look up at him.

“Hello to you, too,” you smile. “It smells really good in here, and you look like quite the chef with your sleeves all rolled up and a towel over your shoulder.”

“You like the look, hm?” he teases, closing the door close and kissing your neck some more as he walks you into the loft.

“I do. I like it so much, I almost dropped the bottle of wine I brought, especially if you keep kissing that spot.”

He pulls back and kisses the top of your head. “Well, I’m glad you’ve both survived this far.” Matt, on the other hand, is barely holding on. Every second that you’ve been here—the whole 90 of them—he’s had to restrain himself from jumping on you the way he so desperately wants.

“How about we sit first?” Matt hums, giving your arm a squeeze.

“You’ve plated everything. I’d hate for the food to get cold. This looks lovely.” You lean over, kissing his cheek. As your lips leave his skin, he turns into you, kissing you deeply before dragging his embraces down your neck and up to the sweet spot behind your ear, humming in delight as he takes you in and kisses your skin. You let out a soft moan, your knees buckling slightly as you lean into him and hold onto his body.

“‘m pretty sure that this is supposed to happen after dinner,” you swallow, your fingers desperately holding onto his arms.

“Dinner can wait. You smell too good,” he murmurs into your skin, taking the wine from your hand and putting it on the island.

“I—!”

You suck in a breath in surprise when his hands travel low and squeeze at your hips.

“You smell good,” he repeats, his voice dipping low. “Better than dinner—better than it tastes.”

Your hands have a mind of their own, moving up his arms, letting your fingers rake through his hair.

“Matt . . .” you breathe. He can sense how your heart races as you hold him close. 

“I can stop if you want to,” he hums, dragging his kisses down along your collarbone. “But I really don’t want to angel.”

You let out a sigh that goes straight to his cock. “I-I don’t have anything,” you tremble, and Matt notices a slight edge of something else in your voice. You sound a little nervous, but it’s not like the two of you haven’t had sex before. There’s been a few times where you’ve done just this—throw your date plans out the window to just spend the night exploring one another’s bodies over and over until you’re both so worn you turn into a tangled mess of limbs in bedsheets. And then it clicks for him. Your smell being extra strong, your elevated temperature, your racing heart, and now the slight nervous tremble in your voice. You’ve been together for two months, and he’s been with you around the time of your period, and even during your period, but as he wracks his brain to work on timelines, he’s positive there’s only one solution.

You’re ovulating.

And you know it.

Matt pulls back slowly, his hands still on your hips as you face him. He desperately works to find your eyes, even though he knows he’ll never be able to, not in the way he wants. 

“And you’re . . . you’re not on . . .?” He doesn’t want to finish the sentence—it makes him feel slimy asking that, but he wants to hear you say it rather than conclude based on assumption, even if that assumption is rooted in everything your body is telling him.

“I-I’m not,” you confirm. “The side effects and stories I’ve heard from friends . . .” You shrug. “It didn’t seem worth it. As contraception or a way to help with periods.” He senses another shift in you, but this one is different. You’re embarrassed, ashamed even. 

“Hey,” Matt says softly, kissing you tenderly. “It’s your body. You need to do what’s best for it.”

You nuzzle into his touch, and he lets out a little hum. “I just hate to have killed the mood. Especially since I smell so irresistible, apparently. And those kisses were pretty damn nice.”

Matt can hear how you smile while you speak when an idea comes to his mind.

“What’s that face?” you smirk, holding onto him adoringly.

“We can still keep the mood going. I mean, I have condoms, but, if you don’t want to use them, I have another idea. All you have to do is sit down and look pretty for me.”

You eagerly bite your lip, making Matt chuckle. He leans forward, pressing a kiss to your lips before leading you to his bedroom.

“Sit down for me, angel,” he hums. “And spread your legs nice and wide for me.”

With a smile, you do as he asks as he softly kisses up your thighs, moving back and forth between each leg until he’s the apex, pressing a large open-mouthed kiss to your covered core. You take in a sharp breath as he slowly kisses and licks at you. For just how badly Matt wants you, he’s surprised and impressed with the restraint he’s showing. You whimper and moan as he begins to set his pace, one of your hands moving to his head and tugging on his hair, urging him to get closer. Between your arousal and his mouth, your panties are absolutely soaked within minutes. 

“Hey,” you whine as he removes his mouth from you. “I was enjoying that.”

“I know,” he grins, sliding his hands up your legs until his thumbs hook around your panties and slide them down your legs before tossing them up behind you on the bed. “Those are mine, now.”

You chuckle, your laughs turning into a moan when he reattaches his lips to your dripping core. Your sounds are louder, more unrestrained now that his lips are on your dripping ones. The way you squirm against Matt’s face only eggs him on, the rotations of your hips are only helping drive your scent further into his nose, injecting pure you into his body. Wet sounds fill the room, even with his face as buried deep as it is, and he can sense the way you lean back more and more until you’re flat on your back on the mattress, still managing to pull at his hair while he eats you out. You’re done for as soon as he slips two fingers in you. You tremble with an intense orgasm as you cry out so hard, Matt can tell it hurts your lungs a little. You squeeze his head with your thighs, and Matt uses his free hand to grip onto your hip and hold you closer, bringing him on the verge of suffocation by pussy—which wouldn’t be the worst way to go, if he’s being honest.

Matt continues to lick and slurp up your juices, pushing you into overstimulation territory, your mews still music to his ears but with a tinge of discomfort, but not before you cum again and coat his face with your delicious release. Moving his lips off of your clit, he gently licks up your mess, pressing kisses all over your pelvis before lifting his head up above the skirt of your dress.

“Better than anything I could’ve cooked,” he grins as he proudly wears your slick on his face. “So good, I want to go back for seconds.”

“You gotta give me a second, tiger,” you breathily laugh, caressing the side of his face, and he desperately turns his head to kiss your palm. “Maybe while I recoop, you can get some condoms? Or at least put the dinner in the fridge so we don’t get poisoned when we get around to actually eating it.”

Matt smiles and pounces on you, caging your body beneath his before holding your face in his hands as he kisses you. You giggle and chase his lips happily, and Matt slips his tongue into your mouth to let you taste yourself even better. You squeal in delight as he presses you into the mattress, and he feels like a giddy teenager in love.

Shit. He loves you. 

He was pretty sure he did—from the moment he met you, he didn’t want to even think about dating anyone else. And call it the pheromones he’s undoubtedly drunk on right now, but he doesn’t see himself being with anyone but you for the rest of his life. 

“What’s on your mind, pretty boy?” you whisper, running your fingers through his hair, and he can tell you’re looking at him as if he’s all the stars in the sky.

Yeah, he loves you.

“You,” he hums. “I got lucky, getting you in my life.”

“I was just thinking the same thing.” This time, it’s your turn to pull him down for a sweet kiss, and Matt feels as if his heart might explode.

“I’ll be right back,” he murmurs against your lips. “Stay just like this.”

“Kay,” you hum.

Matt presses one more kiss to your lips before he scurries out of his room, blowing out the candles, putting the plates in the fridge, and grabbing a box of condoms from his bathroom. When he comes back into his room, he finds you in the same spot he let you, pure relaxation covering you from your head to your toes. 

“You’ve got the stuff,” you smirk, and Matt can’t help but do the same. 

“I do,” he hums as he walks back to you, sitting on the mattress, leaning you up to snuggle into his side. “Are you sure you want to do this tonight? Because trust me, as much as I want to do this with you right now, I can wait until a better time. I don’t mind sticking my head back down between your legs and spending the rest of the night there. I’ll be just as happy there.”

Your eyes flutter shut, leaning into his body and kissing him. “I’m sure. And trust me, if that’s what you eat pussy like when I’m ovulating, I can’t wait to feel how you fuck me. No way I’m waiting to experience that.”

The last part seems to slip out past your lips before you can realize it, and you both know what it implies. A small smile pulls at the corners of Matt’s lips, and he leans forward to kiss you again before you have a chance to feel embarrassed, resting his forehead on yours. That’s not a conversation for tonight, but he’s touched that you’ve even considered it. “Alright, if you’re sure,” he whispers. “But you need to open the package.”

“I will, but first . . .” You straddle his lap and push him down on the mattress. “I think I need to take care of that painful looking bulge in your pants.”

Matt licks his lips in anticipation, listening to how you work yourself over him. You lean over, kissing and sucking a little mark into his neck before you unknot his tie and unbutton his shirt. 

“Do you trust me, Matt?” you ask.

“Completely,” he smiles. 

Taking his tie, you gently move his hands up above his head and begin to knot his fabric around his wrists. 

“Is it too tight?” you ask, brushing hair out of his face as if you’re clearing his line of sight. 

“‘s perfect,” he assures. “So are you.”

He can sense how you blush before you lean down and kiss him, softly dragging embraces down his exposed skin until you get to his pants, undoing his belt and sliding it off, and taking care of his pants, sliding it off his hips, leaving him exposed. He’s painfully hard—he’s surprised he didn’t cum in his pants while he was up to his eyeballs in (Y/N). He sucks in a breath between his teeth when your hand wraps around him, giving him some gentle pumps before you lean down and start to use your mouth. You press feather-light kisses on the underside of his shaft, licking his frenulum and gently caressing his balls. You get the tip of him in your mouth, so warm and wet, he swallows hard. 

“Wait,” he begs. “‘m not gonna last if you keep going like that.”

You smirk as you bring your mouth down toward his base before you let your hot breath spread over him.

“We both know that this isn’t the first time you’ll be cumming tonight, Matty,” you hum. 

You lick along the vein in his shaft until you’re back at the tip, opening your mouth and going down on him. Matt cries out at the top of his lungs, his hips bucking up as he lets out his release. He breaks out of the satin restraint, his hands moving to the sides of your face, not to force you down, but just to have his hands on you. When you finish sucking him dry, you pull off, licking your lips before you swallow.

“I’m offended. You broke out of my knot,” you chuckle. 

“Sorry,” he says with a blissed, dopey smirk. 

“No, don’t apologize. It was hot. Like, really hot. Like, we’re going to have to do something like that in the future hot.”

“Are we now?”

“Mmm. Now, where’d you put that box of condoms?”

Leaning over, you grab the box and pull out the foil package, tearing it open while he gets up and takes off the rest of his clothes before you carefully slide on the latex.

“Sweetheart, I think you’re a little overdressed,” he hums as his hands slide up under your dress. 

“What’re you gonna do about it?” you grin. 

His hands grip the zipper, pulling it down the track before sliding it off of your body, his hands then deftly moving to remove your bra. 

“There we go,” he smiles before leaning in and taking one of your breasts into his mouth, letting himself get lost in the soft, supple flesh. You both roll around in the bed until you’re under him, Matt sliding into you.

“Aah!” you cry out, your fingers grabbing a bruising grip onto his shoulders. It gets stronger the further that he pushes into you. Even with two orgasms and plenty of your arousal dripping from between your legs, you’re still so tight.

“That’s it,” he hums. “That’s it, you’re taking me so well, sweetheart.”

“Fuck!” you cry out, throwing your head back as you scratch angry red lines down his back.

“A little more, angel, you can do it. You can do it . . . Good girl, just like that.”

You both let out a grunt when he bottoms out in you, taking a moment to adjust.

“Just say the word for me, and I’ll start moving.”

“I-I need you,” you say almost immediately. “Matt, please, start moving. D-Don’t hold back.”

He takes your face in his hands, kissing you deeply before he starts thrusting. He does as you ask, not starting slow like he has in your past sexual encounters. Your moans and cries are music to his ears, spurring him on to go even faster, making you cry out louder. 

“Matt!” you cry with a guttural moan. “Yes! You’re so deep!”

“Made f’me,” Matt growls as he throws your legs up over his shoulders and folding you in half. “Mine.”

“Yours! I’m yours!”

Matt slithers a hand up your body, mapping out your soft skin with his touch until his hand is around your neck, holding your jaw, fingers spread before giving it a light squeeze. He listens to how your body reacts immediately, your warm, wet, tight cunt squeezing his cock as a response as you moan and bite your lip.

Matt’s going to have fun with that fact.

“Are you ready to cum, sweetheart?” he coos as he slams into you so hard, he’s pretty sure that your cunt might be permanently stretched and remolded to match the shape of his cock. “Can you cum around my cock for me?”

“Yes,” you whimper, one of your hands dropping to his forearm, giving it a squeeze. “Don’t stop, please don’t stop! Make me cum—make me cum hard! Just don’t stop!”

Matt lowers himself to kiss you deeply, your bodies a tangled, squished mess as he keeps pounding into you. You hold onto his face desperately, deepening the connection and the kiss until you open your mouth to let out an unbridled cry of pleasure. It hurts his ears, but what a sound to go deaf to. His hand slides from your neck, moving to higher up on your waist as he kisses you through your high, his sweaty forehead eventually falling to the crook of your neck as he experiences his own release.

The two of you are a panting, sweaty mess, tangled together and coming back to your senses while he softens inside of you. A few minutes pass, and he finally musters the energy to pull out of you, tying off the condom and throwing it in the trash by his bed.

“If you’re gonna fuck me like that every time I ovulate,” you pant, kissing his cheek before resting your forehead on his temple. “I’m in for a real treat.”

Matt chuckles, enjoying the taste of your skin and how it mixes with your sweat. In that moment, everything is calm, quiet . . . everything makes sense. 

“Oh, sweetheart,” he hums, his hands roaming your body. “We’re not done yet.”

PRETTY WHEN YOU CRY

YANDERE! ACTOR OC x IDOL! READER x YANDERE! FAN OC

— inspired by oshi no ko & lana del ray’s pretty when you cry. ff: did you know i was gonna have my usernames in social medias be “akumarine” which mixes my two fixations att (oshi no ko & iruma)? no? well now you do!

tw/cw: yandere themes; mentions of seggs and substances but no smut. mentions of non-con. reader is a cold-hearted bastard. substance use. character death. murder. reader gets called pretty (but that’s a gn term so fite me). necrophillia.

this was inspired by uh… one of gen’s stories. let’s say. and mr. devil’s stoner reader.

MINORS AND AGELESS BLOGS DNI

“I’ll wait for you babe, that’s all I do, babe.”

GENIUSES WERE BORN, NOT CREATED

That was the mindset Kahliel had. Some people were literally and figuratively born different. Only a select few were able to gaze into the intricacies of their craft and tune it to heights others could only imagine.

You were one such genius. It only took one gaze to understand that. You saw the set in ways even he didn’t account. The lighting, the blocking, and the subtle body language, the angles of which you thrived in. He only heard of your amazing work as an idol, how you manage to look entrancing in every shot and moment, how you are able to mesmerize even those that swore they hated you.

But genius, true geniuses also have one other trait Kahliel recognized. It was their heartless nature.

You two met on set years ago as young adults. It was one of his earlier works as the main actor. Not a film, but a musical. Even then he could see the void in your eyes. Your cold demeanor repelled the people around you. He could have never expected that kind of performance from a person who seemed to hate even the regular ground they walked on, much more the stage.

That musical launched him to stardom and led to you two having sex for the first time.

“All those special times I spent with you, my love. They don’t mean shit compared to all your drugsz”

It was embarrassing really. Kahliel had no time and therefore no prior experience on such things. But you just looked so pretty underneath the blue dim lighting of the club the afterparty was held in. A drink, maybe a couple of weed later and you found yourselfs in a dingy motel’s bedroom. Entangled in eachother’s bodies, the scent of sex, sweat and the strongest of all — puke wafting through the air.

He couldn’t believe it. He admired you for quite a bit. Sure you are stoic, standoffish. But there were times you’d defend him from other people on set. You weren’t cruel and unfair.

At least, he thought you were.

Kahliel was proud of his performance as an actor. So, as you left him that night. Without so much as a farewell. He does not cry.

He does not weep.

Even as his heart was shattering.

HE MEETS YOU AGAIN ON MUSIC VIDEO SET. YOUR MUSIC VIDEO’S SET.

And it took him everything not to run up to you. He had not heard about you at all after the musical. Too focused with his own career and distraught by the way you treated him and left, he threw himself into acting, partying, fucking other actors and actresses — heck even randos or fans who’d take his money and shut up about it. It was only by destiny’s design that you two cross paths again.

“[Y/N]?”

“Yes?”

Indifference. The same look you gave him way back then. Like he was just dirt underneath your shoe. You probably don’t even remember that you’ve slept with him once before. Much less the kindness you spared when everyone else looked down at him. The very reason he entrusted his virginity to you.

But then, there was also something else. Your eyes were blood-shot. Your countenance, despite being as heavenly as he remembered, showed signs of deterioration.

You were high.

“No, I just wanted to give you these. As a token of acting together once again.” He said as he presented a large bouquet of spider-lilies, practically blinding you with its reds.

“Thank you. Leave them over there.” You pointed to a corner with a grateful smile.

Later on, he saw you throwing his gift in the trash. Not a hint of emotion on your face.

“But I don’t really mind, I’ve got much more than that.”

Viné was a fan of yours from the very beginning. Under the pseudonym Grapevine, he’d post regular updates. Essentially he stalked you for a living. He had a day job of course. But his true passions lied with watching you on the daily

You’ve gotten sloppy lately. You almost never check your gifts from him. Accepting them eagerly. Not a care in the world if they were bugged or with a tracker.

He used to think that it was terrible how you got into substances. Worried how it’d impact your health and performance on stage and screen. But now, now he reveled in it.

Viné already knew where you lived of course. But there were times where you’d move all of sudden or where he wasn’t free to check on you.

Now, his hands trembled in ecstasy as he watched you in your room.

But you were with someone else.

Viné didn’t care for much aside from what you starred in, and even in those songs or films all he could focus on was you.

So who was this man standing in your room as you were drugged out? Pushing you unto your bed with a grin so wide it hurt just to look at it.

Viné stared as this man defiled you. He watched as he saw him squeezed you tight, smothering his filthy lips all over your body.

You . . .

You were betraying him.

How could you do this to him? He supported you all this this time but this is how he gets repaid? A free show to watching his god be with someone else?

He does not watch the rest of the live-show. Utterly disgusted by your behavior and cheating.

He quickly made his way through the mess and trash strewn all over his house and grabbed a dull knife from the kitchen. He sets off into the night.

He had to teach you a lesson.

The two men, despite your arms going limp, continued their actions. Unaware that you had choked on your own vomit a while ago.

A smile was etched on your face, pretty as it always was.

Hiii! Are your requests open? I’ve been reading your OP stories and I loooove them!

So I was wondering if I can request a story where Ace and zoro are both interested in you, like hella interested and causes a lot of tension ? You can choose how it ends and who reader ends up with lol.

zai broadcasts - pre time skip zoro gotta love him man this idea was a serve anon, im gonna split this into 2 parts bc i actually love both of them and i can’t pick one and i have ideas for both that i wanna use so stay tuned for em!!

˗ˏˋzoro ver. ˗ˏˋace ver.

˗ˏˋ«────── « 𓆩♡𓆪 » ──────»

“nice to meet you everyone i’m ace, and thank you for taking care of my kid brother by the way i know he can be a bit much.”

“oh no he is the near death situations we’ve been in is insane…and you just got on the grand line??”

ace laughed at your snarkiness “that is true he has a tendency to not think!”

nami shrugged her shoulders “well if we’re being honest here i don’t get paid enough to die every five minutes.”

“agreed.” the remaining stawhats spoke in unison slightly annoying their captain.

“hey i’m an excellent captain thank you very much!”

after the reunion between brothers ace revealed he was looking for a man named blackbeard and since their paths collided he decided to travel along with luffy and his crew.

“so are you gonna stop staring at him or go talk to him?” nami nudged you with a grin becoming aware of your little crush on ace.

you nudged her back with burning cheeks “shut up! it’s not like that nami.”

she rolled her eyes and mimicked your voice while fluttering her eyelashes “oh ace you’re so handsome! oh ace you’re hotter than your devil fruit! oh ace the things i’d let you do to me-”

“nami!” you shouted in embarrassment your face growing warm at her horrible impressions and the fact that he might’ve heard.

“the logical thing here would be to just talk to him! it’s not everyday you see a catch like him on the grandline y/n.”

“yeah…” you sighed looking over to where the green haired swordsman was leaned the mast he was napping as per usual, but the way the sun hit his skin just right. you couldn’t help but to stare, accidentally zoning nami out in the process only hearing her again when he gently nudges you for your attention.

“oohhh zoro too huh” she smirked at you but then sighed “personally im team ace im pretty sure he can pay his debts on time…”

“oh speak of the devil here he comes~” nami’s eyes followed ace as he walked along the deck of the merry, she noticed how his eyes lit up once he spotted you and she smirked to herself.

you turned around making eye contact with ace and turned around immediately, which caused nami to laugh at you being to nervous. “ready or not here he comes” she giggled.

“hey y/n, how are you doing”

nami giggled “oh? so excited to see them you forgot all about me?” ace attempted to respond but nami cuts him off speaking with a devilish grin directed towards you “up bup up! i’ll leave you two love birds to talk okay?” she ways goodbye to the two of you and walks into the kitchen of the merry.

ace sighs and sits next to you on the deck, his shoulder softly brushing against yours “so what was that all about?” he chuckles while pointing in nami’s direction. you roll your eyes with a slight smile on your face “that’s just how nami is, y’a know sweet dependable, insufferable nami…so” you look him in the eyes “what’s life like for you on the seas mr. ‘fire fist’” ace smiles at you “oh you know sailing, meeting amazing people, can’t forget running from the navy.”

you chuckle a bit “you don’t say?”

he chuckles “yup, the best part has been meeting amazing people like you” he takes his hat off and places it on your head with a grin “you’re quite the catch y/n.”

from the kitchen sanji watched the two of you on the deck, and suddenly gasped loudly which got the attention of nami and zoro “that bastard?! taking my y/n like that?!?” he shouts angrily. nami raises a brow “what now?” sanji points at the window with tears welling up in his eyes “everyone knows that if a cowboy puts their hat on someone, they’re claiming that person, that bastard just claimed y/n!” he speaks through sobs “nami-swan hold meeeee” me leapt into her arm’s crying into her shirt so she had no choice but to comfort the cook “there there” nami rolls her eyes while patting his back lightly.

“so what you’re saying his y/n is his now?” zoro said suddenly grabbing the attention of nami and the weeping cook, nami smirks at the swordsman “what do you have a crush on y/n or something? y/n looks cozy with ace don’t you think, are you sure you can’t even make a dent in that?”

zoro sucks his teeth “what’s that supposed to mean?” nami’s smirk grew wider and there was a mischievous glint in her eyes “im saying that y/n seems pretty into ace, unless you’re into y/n and you want to change that.” zoro snaps at the ship’s navigator in frustration “of course i want to change that!”

zoro’s eyes grow wide at what he said and a brush quickly creeps up his neck and spreads across his face “i mean-”

sanji looks at zoro in shock while nami has a grin on her face, she points towards the deck where the two of you are sitting “so how about you go do something about it, swordsman.”

Honeymoon Knight / Chapter 1 - A New Request

All | Next

※ A notice before reading the event story In this "Honeymoon Knight" event, various memories of the lord with the butlers will be told. The story is designed to be more enjoyable for lords who have read other event stories.... So, for this reason, please reminisce about the memories with the butlers. ...........................

[Area around Devil's Palace]

~ One day in June ~

It has been rainy for quite some time around Devil’s Palace. The quiet sound of rain echoes through the mansion.

[Devil's Palace, Your Room]

Muu: “Phew... Recently, there have been many rainy days, my lord.  I like looking for rainbows after the rain... but if it continues to rain like this, it gets a bit disheartening.”

> “Yeah, it does...”

Muu: “Oh, right! My lord, how about... Reminiscing the time we went to Velis on days like these?”

> “The one with the resort?”

Muu: “Yes, that's right! Velis, the place we visited last summer! It was so bright and sunny, with the beautiful sea. When you remember it, don't you feel a burst of energy?”

> “Certainly…”

Muu: “At that time... we could play with all the butlers, and it was fun, right? I want to go to Velis again!”

> “I'd like to go again too”

While talking about such things... there was a knock on the door.

Knock, knock...

> “Please come in” > “Feel free to enter”

Click

Berrien: "Excuse me, my lord.”

Muu: “Wow! Mr. Berrien, that outfit looks amazing!”

> “It suits you, Berrien”

Berrien: "Fufu... Thank you, both of you. This is an outfit that Flure made for a new request… I wanted to show it to you beforehand, so I put it on.”

> “Thank you, Berrien”

Berrien: "No, no... I am the one who wants to express gratitude. Being praised by you... made me happier.”

Muu: “By the way, where are we going for the new request? Is it Velis by any chance!?”

Berrien: "Oh dear, Muu. Whatever made you think of Velis?”

Muu: “We were just talking about it. Since it's been raining a lot lately, we thought of going to a sunny and bright place!”

Berrien: “Ah… I understand now. Well then, let's discuss the actual destination in a separate room. The other butlers are already waiting as well... Would it be alright for you to come to the dining room for the time being?”

> “Understood”

Guided by Berrien, we headed to the dining room. 

[Devil's Palace, Dining Room]

When I entered... There were already five butlers gathered.

Berrien: "Please go ahead, my lord. Here is the place.”

> “Thank you, Berrien”

Miyaji: “Hello, my lord.”

Lucas: “Fufu... This time too, please take care of the request.”

Hanamaru: “Yo, my lord. Take care of me too."

Haures: "Mr. Hanamaru... please greet the lord properly as a butler."

> "Hello, guys"

Berrien: "Thank you all for gathering."

Lucas: "Oh? Berrien, does that lovely outfit have something to do with this request?"

Berrien: "Yes, exactly. Since this time, everyone will be going together, representatives from each group were called for information sharing."

Hanamaru: "I see... but I think Yuhan would be more fitting than me."

Haures: "If this request involves everyone...  It implies that there's a need for manpower, right?"

Lucas: "So... Is it, perhaps, preparing for another party like during Valentine's?"

Muu: "Or... Perhaps, escorting nobles, like when we went to Velis?"

Berrien: "No, this time... it's both."

> "Both...?"

Berrien: "This time, everyone will be... preparing for a party and acting as escorts for the nobles."

Hanamaru: (Woahhh, this is definitely gonna be a hassle...)

Haures: "Hmm... Preparing for a party in June... Could it possibly be a wedding celebration?"

> "A wedding?" > “What do you mean?”

Lucas: "You may already know, but... In June, there is a saying related to marriage. 'Marry in June for happiness blessed by the goddess.'  So, during this season... There are often requests for preparations for weddings and escorting guests."

> "I see, it's the June Bride tradition"

Lucas: "Yes, that's right."

Miyaji: “By the way, I heard some news recently... It seems one of the potential heirs of the Grovaner family got married.”

Muu: "Potential heir...?"

Lucas: "To put it simply... someone in line to take over from Lord Finlay as the head, got married.”

Hanamaru: "So, this request is... preparations for the wedding and escorting the guests?"

Berrien: "In addition to that... You also need to escort the newlyweds on their 'honeymoon'."

Muu: "What's a honeymoon?"

Miyaji: "As the name suggests, it's a trip for the newlyweds.  Originally, it's just a trip... But when it comes to the heir, things change. Attending celebratory banquets across the cities, interacting with influential figures... It will likely become quite an important trip."

Haures: "I see... So, our presence is required for that."

Berrien: "Yes, that's correct. The couple will be visiting various cities... So, we will need to act as escorts at each destination."

Lucas: "I see...  By the way... Where are we going?"

Berrien: "First the 'Water City Velis,' then 'Rosetown,' followed by 'Maroota,' … Then 'Tisailles, the City of Fashion,' and finally... 'Kalliste, the City of Blessings’."

Muu: "Yay! My lord, it's Velis! And there are so many places we've been to before!"

> "I'm only unfamiliar with 'Kalliste' "

Miyaji: "Ah, come to think of it... We haven't been to Kalliste with the lord."

Haures: "I'm sure, my lord, that you'll like the city of Kalliste."

Lucas: "Kalliste is a beautiful city known as the holy land of marriage. Also, Kalliste is a city with many sunny days. It might be just perfect for our next destination, considering this rainy season."

> "I see” > “I can't wait!”

Hanamaru: "Sure, I'm fed up with the recent rain, but... I'm curious about the order we'll be visiting the cities. Maroota and Tisailles... they're not that far from Espoir, right? Wouldn't it make more sense to go there before Velis?"

Berrien: "I agree, but... It seems we have to follow this specific order."

Haures: "In that case... It looks like we'll be covering quite a distance."

Miyaji: "My lord, it might turn into a long journey, but... We'll support you thoroughly."

> "Thank you."

Lucas: "However... It's concerning if the butlers get fatigued during such a long journey for this mission."

Berrien: "Yes, that's why for this mission... We'll make sure to have breaks.  For example... while in Velis, everyone from the third floor can rest, and in Maroota, it's villa butlers’ turn to rest. During our stay in Rosetown, it'll be butlers from the second floor's turn... like this, butlers from each group can rest in each city."

Miyaji: "I see... That way, fatigue is less likely to accumulate."

Lucas: "Good plan, Berrien."

Berrien: "Fufu, I'm glad you think so."

Lucas: "While resting, is it alright for us to go out with the lord?"

Berrien: "Yes, of course. Since each city is famous for its tourist spots...  In fact, butlers who are resting can go to take the lord sightseeing."

> "Aren't you tired?"

Berrien: "Not at all... It's nothing to be worried about. The time we spend with you is a healing time for us."

Lucas: "That's right… ♪  Besides, since we're visiting various cities, it's a waste if the lord doesn't enjoy the sightseeing."

> "Th-thank you"

Berrien: "Fufu... That settles it then."

Muu: "Looks like fun! My lord!"

> "Yeah…!" 

And so, I embarked on a journey across the different regions of the central lands with the butlers.

note: my takes on the place names & event source

Velis Event: Butler's Summer. The same Velis with X'mas Circus one. It might be Venezia + Feliz navidad (???). 

Rosetown Event: Rose Valentine.

Maroota Event: Butler's Christmas. It might be Malta/Maltese Cat + Maroon. Malta is famous in Japan as the island with more cats than humans. Edit: just to clarify, this island is definitely not in Japan.

Tisailles Event: Wings of Frill. It might be Versailles + T-shirt (???).

Kalliste (with an é. I'm not gonna write it). First mentioned in this event. It might be Santorini/Thira (Santorini used to be called Kalliste, from the Callisto myth).

[sammyboyimagines]

may I request a Steve Harrington x Reader smutfic :) The Reader has powers like el’s but Steve doesn’t know this so when it comes time they do the ✨devils tango✨ their powers end up going off. :))

omg anon this is an amazing request and I may have got a little carried away. thank you for this request!

Pairing: Steve Harrington x afab!reader

Summary: Reader has powers but hides them from Steve. After a series of weird light flickers and random dropping objects, Steve finally understands his girlfriend's secret. 3.8k words

Warnings: 18+ NO MINORS (i will call ur mom, go play outside or something). Steve is very corny, very sappy. Both reader and Steve are lovesick. This a very VERY FLUFFY SMUT FIC. Swearing, unprotected sex (wrap it folks), light hair-pulling kink, pet names (baby, sweetheart), insecure reader, self-doubt. sweet sweet fluff and smut. Established relationship.

the warnings are messy, I realize that but I don't want to change it so I'm very sorry. Also, anon I hope you don't mind that I made the reader a bit insecure about their powers?

"Hey, beautiful" 

You read Steve's note that he had passed to you during your class. He was lucky Mrs. Johnson wasn't looking or he'd be knee-deep in extra work to get out of detention. While the small smiley face at the end of the signed note made you warm inside, you gave Steve a look that said, "you're such an idiot."

You enjoyed Steve's antics as much as anyone else did, but it still bothered you when he would purposefully get himself into trouble to amuse you. 

Even if it was adorable...

To everyone else, your relationship with Steve was a classic case of girl-next-door meets boy-next-door. But the truth was you were hiding a dark secret. One that you had trained yourself to keep deep inside your mind.

You had special abilities. If you dared to tell anyone, they'd consider them gifts. But you couldn't feel more alienated. After all, you were attending Hawkins High and dating Steve Harrington. 

'King Steve'

 But in Steve's opinion, you couldn't be more perfect; hell he'd say you were the hottest girl in school. You were never seen without Steve either holding your hand or following behind you like a lost puppy. It made your heart melt every time someone mentioned the heart eyes Steve gave you when you weren't looking. However, it also made you incredibly nervous.

Having powers wasn't fun when you could accidentally use them in public settings. Even worse; in front of your perfect boyfriend and his 'perfect' friend group inside your 'perfect' school. You knew of Steve's experiences with the Hawkins Lab. It gave you chills just thinking about your life before you escaped. He had told you about Eleven, and you tried your best to pretend like you didn't have a clue of what horrors lay behind the closed doors in that lab. It was one of the best days of your life when it finally closed down. You chose to stay ignorant about the Eleven business; you'd convinced yourself it was better this way.

Steve hadn't noticed a thing, and you wouldn't have it any other way. He never noticed how the lights would flicker a little when you got excited or scared. You'd play it off with something along the lines of "stupid electricity," and he'd brush it off just as you did. 

Just like you wanted

You weren't trying to lie to him, but you thought it was okay if you didn't tell the full truth. What he doesn't know can't hurt him.

"Psst!" Steve shoved another folded lined paper note onto your desk. You smiled and checked if the coast was clear. Mrs. Johnson was asleep, her head laid on her desk as her warm coffee grew cold. 

"Meet me at our spot? :)" Steve was staring at you from his desk next to you, his head resting on his elbow. You crumbled the note up and rolled your eyes. As much as some time away from class sounded amazing, you already had a D in Mrs. Johnson's class, and you'd be dead if you failed a class. Steve wasn't paying attention to the schoolwork piled on his desk. He was too hypnotized by the way your outfit hugged your body in a way that made him practically drool over you. Then again, you could be wearing anything and he'd react the same way.

Steve tapped your foot with his own. His big brown eyes were your weakness and you hardly got your way when he would beg you with puppy eyes. "Fine." you mouthed before you shot your hand up to ask for the bathroom. Steve was watching the clock, timing the perfect moment so nobody would suspect you were meeting each other.

Just as promised, you walked to your 'spot' which was an empty janitor's closet Steve had found while you two hid from your responsibilities and classes. You fumbled for the lights and eventually switched them on, just in time for Steve to walk in. 

"Been waiting for this all day", Steve's hands were immediately on your waist before you had a chance to say anything. He mumbled sweet compliments as he pressed soft kisses against your neck. "We've only been at school for 3 hours.." your laughs made him beyond happy, but he was too worked up to focus.

"Exactly, all day." he gently held your face in his hands. "You're so gorgeous." Steve was always very honest with you, it was something he wanted in his relationships after Nancy. It made you sick to your stomach each time you remembered that you were hiding your abilities from him, but you hoped he would understand.

Steve's hands ran up and down your body, practically worshiping your body over your clothes. "What did I do to deserve you?" with that he slid his hands up your top as he made out with you. You pushed his hair out of his face as he peppered small kisses along your jawline. "Just making out for now, okay?" you mumbled, feeling him nod against your warm body. 

"Of course, babe, whatever you want is fine with me." Steve had no issue with whatever you wanted to do, he just loved spending time with you. His large hands held your waist as he pulled away from your lips for air. "Maybe we could just spend the rest of school in here, hangin' out. You were distracted, to say the least, you hadn't said anything for the last few minutes.

"Babe? Are you okay?" he held your hands in his own, his small smile bringing you out of the depths of your mind. Steve never wanted you to feel pressured to do anything, and he knew when you weren't telling him something. 

Your eyes couldn't meet his as he tried to reach out to you. You felt guilty, but you couldn't bring yourself to tell him. Steve knew something was up, he never wanted to make you feel like you couldn't have secrets. When he met you, he immediately felt safe around you, like he could tell you anything. He always wanted to have someone trust him enough to tell him everything. And he got it, he got you. 

Steve looked at your puzzled face and felt himself frown. He cared for you, he was in love with you. He hadn't told you yet, but he made up for it by showering you with affection, gifts, and compliments. He wanted to tell you, more than anything. He just never found the proper moment.

"Steve, can I tell you something?" he felt his stomach drop. Were you breaking up with him? 

"Yeah, of course, anything." he clasped his hands in yours tightly, holding onto you as if he was going to lose you any second. You smiled at his nervousness. "I'm not going to break up with you, don't worry." You watched him physically untense against your body. 

"Are you pregnant? his eyes were darting over your face, looking for any kind of hint from your body language. "No! I'm not pregnant. Just let me talk!" your laugh gave him some sense of comfort. It always had been a comfort for him, even if you didn't like your laugh. His day would always get better the moment he was able to make you laugh. It was his favorite part of each day. He listened attentively, his intense glare making you slightly nervous. 

Your hands were clammy and gripping Steve's impossibly tighter. "Let's say that I have a secret, and I don't want to tell you because it could make you think differently of me." Steve normally refrained from interrupting you, he hated when people would talk over you and he always noticed how upset it made you. But he couldn't stop himself.

"Y/n, baby. You don't have to tell me. I trust you." Steve's comforting brown eyes looked into yours, letting you know he was genuine. "I trust you completely." you would have melted to the floor if you weren't so incredibly nervous. You nodded in response, eternally grateful to have found such a considerate person to spend your time with.

"I have something to tell you too, if it's okay with you?" he sits on the floor with you, wanting to have your full attention before he confessed. 

"You're not breaking up with me, are you?" you laughed, making him smile. Steve watched you, he couldn't think of a better way to spend his time with you, making you laugh.

"No, actually the opposite." he ignored your confused face and took a deep breath as he wiped his hands on his jeans nervously. "I've been thinking about this for a while and I think I should tell you. You don't have to say it back or anything." he stood up, his legs feeling restless.

Steve had been working up to this moment for an entire week. He even practiced in front of his mirror. "I'm just gonna start by saying that you look so beautiful today. Not that you don't look beautiful every day!" he stutters out, making you smile. It was heartwarming how flustered he was when talking about his feelings.

"I've spent so long looking for someone like you, and I want you to know how much I appreciate you. You're gorgeous but what I really like about you is how...great you are." he chuckles nervously. He was at a loss for words all of the sudden. You could tell he was stuck in his thoughts. "Steve baby just tell me, you can tell me anything." 

He chuckles. "That's what I like about you." he sighs and sits back down, building up for a dramatic finish to his nervous monologue. "I'm in love with you, Y/n. I have been more months, you're my everything and I just want to be with you every second of every day." he brushes the hair out of his face and waits patiently for a response.

You were expecting something upsetting, but it was a pleasant surprise. "I love you too, Steve." despite it being a small step in your relationship with Steve, it felt like everything had changed. As if you both fell more in love with each other. 

"I have a surprise for you later, we should probably get back to class." Steve helped you up and pulled you in for a long kiss. After a good amount of time, he pulled back for air. "I am so in love with you, Y/n." the lights flickered. You let it slip and the lights flickered from the pure excitement and love flowing through your veins. Steve jumped out of habit. "Stupid lights probably need to be replaced." you were frantically thinking of something to say to get back on topic.

"It's okay, we'll find a better closet." he chuckles. Steve left first so nobody would see both of you coming out of the small room at once.

After school, you hurried to Steve's car while he was jamming out to the radio. "Ready to go?" you slip into the passenger seat and admire his strange dancing. "Earth to Steve.." you wave a hand in front of his face, making him turn down the radio and turn his body to face you. "Before we go, I just want to say you look fucking amazing today. I love you." Steve was obviously laying it on thick, but you enjoyed it if you were honest with yourself.

"Mm, let's go to your house then. You can show me how much you love me." Steve took that as his cue to take off. "Yes, ma'am."

When you got to Steve's place, you hardly closed the door before his lips were attached to your neck, giving you several love bites from your jaw to your collarbone. You let out small moans, from the satisfaction of finally being alone with him and the passionate affection from Steve. He loved hearing your noises, they only fueled the butterflies in his stomach when he remembered hearing "I love you too" leave your lips.

Steve had you pressed against the wall, his hard-on pressed against your thigh as he cupped your face. "See how much you affect me? It's like I can't get you out of my head," he mumbled against your lips, only millimeters from yours, building the tension between your bodies.

"I love you, Steve. I can't get you off my mind either." you knew exactly how to work him up. And it was definitely working. 

"Jesus, you can't say those things.." he chuckles at how pathetically whipped he was for you. "We haven't even kissed yet, Steve." you thought it was hot that he was so worked up he forgot to kiss your lips.

He mentally scolded himself for not realizing it. "Let's change that." He took your face in his hands as he kissed you with a new passion, a more intense feeling of love, not lust. Pure love.

Wrapped up in the hot kiss, you were surprised when he picked you up with his large hands holding your ass. "I could hold you like this all day." he chuckles and kneads the soft skin of your ass and thighs before he gently set you down on his large bed. A perk of going to his house was that his parents were seldom home. He had the entire house to himself. Which meant sex anywhere, anytime. 

"Fuck, gotta get all these clothes off of you.." he helped you take your clothes off before he took off his own. "Have I ever told you that you're beautiful?" he smiled when you raised an eyebrow.

"Every day, but maybe you should tell me again." you laid beneath Steve, your hands tangled in his hair as he made out with you. Normally you would have begged him to get to the point but tonight was a different mood. You desired him, not just his body. To feel his arms around you, his warm breath against your neck whispering sweet nothings as he ran his hands up and down your delicate skin, feeling every scar and mark you had. 

Steve wanted the same thing. He wanted you to understand that he was yours completely. He had been searching for somebody to be with for life. Someone to share every moment and milestone in his life. He wanted to be there for you, to be the one to make you happy, pleasure you, comfort you. He needed you, possibly more than you needed him.

"You are my everything, Y/n. You're all I need. All I want." Steve knew he was being super sappy right now, but he didn't care. Like clockwork, you knew just what to say to make him melt. 

"I'm yours, Steve. I want this." that was the breaking point. He wasn't going to hold back now that he knew you felt the exact same. His hands groped your breasts, sinking down to suck on them as his right hand slid down to your pussy, cupping it gently.

Your moans only turned him on more. He smirked against the soft skin of your tits, his fingers lightly brushing against your clit. Your hips jerked up to meet his hand. "I barely touched you, sweetheart.." he looked at your flushed face. He revels in the blissed look across your face. Even though he teased, he adored you in every way.

His middle finger slid inside you, he watched the way your mouth gaped open and you let out a shaky moan. He added another, thrusting his two fingers inside you quickly, relishing in the way you moaned his name so sweetly. "Fuck Steve!" you gasped when he added yet another finger, three digits pumping into you with force. 

"C'mon baby, I can feel you tightening around my fingers. You're making such a mess." the way he encouraged you and degraded you at the same time made you a mess in his grasp. You felt like you couldn't move like you were under his spell. His mouth moved to your neck, leaving more hickeys across your heated skin. 

"Cum for me baby I know you're so close. Give it to me," he repeated that last sentence, groaning softly into your ear as he rubbed his hard-on into his mattress. Your hips were rolling to meet the fast pace of his fingers, and you could hear him panting quietly in anticipation. Steve was just as turned on as you. He could die happy just watching you.

Your legs were starting to shake already, and you grew closer to your release with each sweet kiss Steve placed on your tits and neck. "Oh god Steve keep going.." he nodded against your skin. Your orgasm ripped through your body. Your whole body felt like it was on fire like electricity was running through you. You let out a strangled loud moan as Steve rode you through your orgasm. 

"So good for me," he pulled his fingers out, smiling when you whimpered from the empty feeling it gave you. He licked his fingers clean, noticing the way you squirmed as you watched him. 

"Please. Need you so bad.." you begged for him, your limbs feeling shaky as excitement coursed through your veins. Steve felt on fire too. Steve pumped his cock a little bit, already hard and longing to feel your warm walls surrounding him as he pounded into you.

He caged his body over yours, his hands holding your wrists against the mattress. "Are you okay with this?" he gave you soft loving kisses, wanting to be as genuine as possible before he had his way with you. With your permission, of course.

"Yes, please Steve fuck me. Been waiting all day.." you let your head fall back onto the mattress as you whined out a pathetic beg. He smirked and kissed your head. "I won't keep you waiting then." he was very thankful you were on the pill, so he could feel the way you squeezed him before your release. He loved being so intimate with you.

Steve could barely keep his composure as he admired the way you laid underneath him, your chest rising and falling as you gasped out desperate tiny moans when he teased your entrance. "Stop teasing.." you whined out, your hips grinding against his cock to create some friction.

He inhaled sharply at the feeling. "Alright baby, behave." he pushed into you slowly, groaning your name softly. He felt you wiggle your hips again. "Eager aren't we?" he chuckles, out of breath a little bit. He was trying to hold back from thrusting into you with such force. 

"Just fuck me already, I want you so bad." with that, he thrust into you as your nails dug into his shoulders. Steve could hardly think, the way your pussy felt against him made him weak in the knees. It was like you were made for him. It made him fall harder for you.

"Fuck you feel amazing, I wish we did this more often." he moaned as he listened to your pleas for him to go faster. He had a weak spot for your voice, it was music to his ears.

You two were often very busy. You both hardly had time or privacy to be intimate because of the six children following him around after school helping him with whatever he was doing and your life projects and nosy family members.

"Harder Steve, don't hold back, please. I really need this." Neither of you would admit this, but you both had so much life stress. Being so romantic and intimate also relieved some of that stress. You felt as if you were in your own little world with him. Just him, the closed curtains, and his king-sized bed, maybe a little jazz playing from time to time. 

Steve captured your lips in his, his teeth gently biting your lip as you both held back loud moans. You reached your hands into his hair and pulled gently, making him shudder as he pounded into you. "Fuck do that again, please do it again." you blushed at the new-found kink that Steve possessed. 

You would have been self-conscious about the wet noises and loud moans coming from you, but nobody was home except you and Steve. It was you and him against the world. The thought of being his and only his drove you crazy. You tugged at Steve's hair, hearing him moan your name. His thrusts became increasingly uneven. "Please tell me you're close baby. I don't know if I can keep going much longer." he was begging you to cum. The lights suddenly started to flicker harshly, you hadn't noticed at all.

Almost on command, you felt your orgasm hit you hard. "Fuck Steve!" you could only say those two words. Your brain was static as your limbs shook with the waves of pleasure washing over your tired body. Steve was hardly focused on his surroundings, but he was a tad bit worried about the lights. He didn't realize that all of the things sitting on his shelves were now scattered across the floor and a picture hanging on the wall had fallen off. Once Steve had fucked you through your orgasm, he filled you up with his cum.

Steve shakily held himself up as he pressed a kiss to your head. You could barely hear anything but the gasping from your mouths. "You are so pretty like this. Has anyone told you that you look like an angel?" he laughs when you hit his chest. You weren't smiling. You were panicking. The lights began flickering again.

You had been so utterly blissed out that you couldn't keep yourself from letting your powers go. "What's going on? I'm sorry this usually doesn't happen." He turned around and saw the objects on the floor and his face contorted in confusion. "What the hell?" He stood up.

You grabbed his hand. "Steve?" you were breathing heavily. You had to tell him. "This is what I wanted to tell you." Steve sat down next to you. He was extremely confused now. "What are you talking about?" he frowns. 

"I did this. The lights, the stuff on the floor." Steve held your shaky hands in his. Everything started to make sense, he was worried he was cursed or something. "You have powers?" he now understood why you were so hesitant.

"Yes. I know I should have told you before but I didn't want to ruin what we have. I want to be with you so bad, Steve. I'm in love with you and I didn't want you to think I was some kind of freak." you felt Steve wrap his arms around your shaking body. 

"You're not a freak, Y/n. You're my girlfriend. I could never think less of you, no matter what you do. I'm here for you for everything. I promised I would stay with you no matter what. Plus, it's kinda cool." he cleared his throat after his less serious sentence.

"I couldn't love you more. This is just a perk. My girl is a superhero." he pulled you in for a soft kiss. Steve smiled against your lips when he felt you hold onto him.

"Maybe we could try some new positions then? Like some cool positions with your powers-"

"Shut up."

//and that's it folks! I honestly think I'm getting better at writing smut, this is my second attempt at writing smut. Let me know if there's any weak spots!

Hi it's my birthday ( I know, that last thing I said is not that important ) , but I love your fan fic, especially if they all have Gareth as the main protagonist, I would like to know how is Gareth socializes with a girl, who tries to get friends on her first day of school , girl of which no one takes importance because that typical nerd , as Gareth would approach her to strike up a conversation with her.

First impressions

𝗣𝗮𝗶𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 : Gareth Emerson x Fem! Nerd!Reader

𝗦𝘂𝗺𝗺𝗮𝗿𝘆: first day of school in the town of Hawkins was many things, Y/n never expected a warm welcome by curly headed boy to be one of them.

𝗪𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝘀: pure fluff. Some cussing but very little.

𝗣𝗼𝘃: first person- Gareth

𝗔/𝗻 : happy birthday my love! I can absolutely write about that and thank you for your kind words! I hope today treats you good and hope most of your birthday wishes come true, with love- 🐭🎀 x

It was a normal boring school day. It was a Wednesday for crying out loud, one of the worst days of the week if you ask me, and the fact that-

“Gareth, hey Gareth” Jeff said to me as he caught up with me, as I walking to first period, it’s too damn early for this.

“Yeah man, what’s up?”

“Did you see the new girl?” He asked, a twinkle in his eye.

New girl? Who? What? Where? Huh?

“Wait- have you not seen her yet? She is in the same grade as you dude, she made quite the first impression” Jeff said, a small fit of giggles escaping him afterwards.

“What do you mean quite the first impression?” I asked.

“She tripped on the stairs and fell on top of Carver when she first walked into the door, I kinda feel bad cause she did sorta embarrass herself not even a whole Minute of into the school” Jeff explained to me.

Yeah no that does sound kinda bad.

“Well this is my class, see you at lunch” Jeff said as he parted ways with Gareth.

Gareth soon reached the math classroom which was assigned his first period and took his usual seat in the back row. Class had started, usual boring nonsense of numbers and symbols filling his ears. All of that was interrupted though when someone had entered the classroom.

“I’m sorry but is this classroom B29?” The person said, voice belonging to a girl.

“Ah yes, you must be Y/n, the new transfer student, got lost is my guess in why you are late to my class?” The teacher asked her.

“Yes ma’am, I’m sorry it won’t happen again”

“Yes well, welcome to Hawkins high Y/n, please take a seat somewhere, I was just recapping everyone on how to get the area of a triangle”

I slowly looked around me…damn…the only place left to sit was next to me in the back row. She spotted the seat and took it, slowly sitting down and get trying to get comfortable.

Her outfit was simple, jeans with a red fuzzy cotton sweater and a pair of converse. She had managed to make something so simple look absolutely amazing.

I had caught myself staring, only because she must have felt my eyes burning onto her that she turned her head towards me and shot me a small smile.

Time felt like it froze, like If the world had become Ice.

I didn’t even give her a smile back, just quickly whipping my head back to the chalkboard and trying my hardest for the entire period to keep it that way.

That was the first time I saw her.

The next time was 3rd period, science.

And of course, Mrs. Smith, had placed us next to one another.

We didn’t say anything to one another. But during the class I frequently looked over and watch her. She was doodling in her note book for most of class, different things from stars, to planets, and she even drew a perfect detailed picture of a light saber. What I didn’t expect her to draw next was little dice, mostly D20s, and then it donned on me.

‘Holy shit’ I thought to myself, this girl likes dungeons and dragons. I’ve never met a girl who likes the game, most girls wouldn’t call it a satanic game, the game of the devil in other words. But this girl…not her.

That was the second time I saw her that day. The next was last period. I hadn’t seen her in the cafeteria at lunch, if I did maybe I would have picked up the courage and introduced myself but she wasn’t there, so I didn’t get the chance to.

Last period was P.E, my least favorite class. Coach had given us a free day to do whatever we liked in the gym, I looked over and saw her take that opportunity to go and sit behind the bleachers.

Not very athletic huh? It’s okay, I’m not either. That being one the main reasons why I failed P.E, everyone else ended up with 80s and 90s, while I was stuck between 50s and 60s. But that’s not important right now.

I decided this would be a open chance to introduce myself, so I slowly followed her, stopping a few times along the way to make sure coach or no one else saw me.

There she was, sitting there, a book sitting in her hand, sitting crisscrossed on the floor underneath a bleacher.

She looked so…calm. So care free. Like she was in her own bubble or world, one that included only her and her thoughts. The sight was almost an-

“You know I can see you right?”

My head shot up, I wasn’t expecting her to say something, let alone say something without even looking up, without taking her eyes off the book.

“I- uh- I’m- I just-“

Good job Gareth. Stuttering and making a complete fool out of myself was most definitely the best way to go.

She finally looked up. Her eyes burning into my own. Her eyes were beautiful.

“Hi” she said, a small smile forming on her lips “I’m Y/n”

Y/n. Why did it sound so…good? It definitely fit her. Pretty name for a pretty girl I guess.

“I’m uh- I’m Y/n….WAIT NO..I’m sorry you are

y/n, I’m um…I’m Gareth…”

Good. Fucking. Job. Gareth. Emerson.

“Nice to meet you Gareth” she said with a small giggle.

How did my name sound so good from her? I’ve never loved the sound of my name so much in my life.

I looked down and there sat the book she was reading, it was a Dungeons and dragons guide.

She followed my eyes, hers landing back on the book.

“Dungeons and dragons huh? You play?” I asked her.

“No but I always wanted to play, most people aren’t fond of the game so no one really is up to play”

“Hellfire” I said as soon as she was done saying what she needed to say.

She gave me a puzzled look “sorry?”

“I uh- hellfire, it’s the club I’m in, we play it, Eddie our DM, I could ask him if he could consider you joining” I offered

She just gave me the warmest smile I’ve ever seen “I’d like that”

I knew after that I would try my best to make her feel as welcomed, excepting, and loved to the best of my abilities.

Promise.

[fanaticsnail]

If you ever need visuals/inspiration for the dancing prompts I am HERE.

Mihawk (tango):

You obviously are familiar with Mr & Mrs Smith and the ICONIC Morticia and Gomez dances. However, may I suggest;

"Cell Block Tango" - you know I had to include it.

"Shall we dance?" (2004) - so sensual and intimate. Poetry in motionm

"Take the Lead" - there's a tango in a detention centre with two people (which is what I was thinking of), but there's also a lovely sandwich tango (iykwim)

And my personal fave: the introducing the tango scene from the story of Vernon and Irene castle - and old movie, black and white, but my GOD the CHEMISTRY. The CUNT. The FLUIDITY. The subtle but adoring smiles and glances.

Luffy:

Ok the Bachata for Luffy is perfect and I don't want to change it but I would like to offer up for your viewing/imagining pleasure: La Cucaracha. Simple, sweet. Folk dance. Gives young love. Lots of Luffy vibes. Just imagining them dancing in a town square.

Otherwise, no notes. The song is amazing I can't wait.

Buggy (swing):

Songs wise:

Tangled up - Caro Emerald (specifically the Lokee remix)

Dancing with the devil - Elle & the pocket Belle's

And idk how swing they are necessarily but; I don't have a name for it by Steam Powered Giraffes, Gentlemen by OR3O (or even All eyes on me by OR3O, but that's less of a love song and more angsty), vending machine of love by the stupendium

Zoro (Capoeira):

I love this. When I heard(read) "dance series" I immediately knew a dance fight style would KILL. I never knew Capoeira before this so I have to thank you for introducing me because *chefs kiss* muah.

I couldn't find many Capoeira scenes in movies or shows, but from what I did see there's a lot of break-dance-esque leg action. So I gotta suggest the Eggsy vs Gazelle fight from Kingsmen. (Side note: the kingsmen movies are actually so camp).

If you don't know, Gazelle is an antagonist with prosthetic legs that are basically spears and she fights with a lot of slashes. The scene is beautiful. Lots of legs swinging, lots of fists flying, very lethal. Lots of physics defying and frankly reality bending moments that fit into the drama of anime fighting, specifically one piece.

Now idk where it would fit but I would kill myself if I didn't mention the Naacho Naacho dance scene (essentially a dance battle) in the movie RRR (seriously good movie, it is v long tho). It's an Indian movie set during the war of the English colonisation. One of the main characters has a crush on a white girl who invites him to a party, and his friend tags along for moral support. They use the power of friendship and dance to defeat a racist white guy who thinks that they're not sophisticated bc they don't even know how to dance any of his fancy dances (which aren't even english dances, by the way) by dancing a dance that gets everyone to join bc it's so fun, and they manage to continue dancing as everyone falls around them bc of the pace and stamina needed. If you watch none of the scenes I've suggested, please watch this one.

Honourable mentions;

Zendayas dance off in dancing with the stars (https://youtu.be/2Iw951fviP4?si=_Bj4Wav5pcpYyLIZ)

And it's not necessarily a romance song and the context is icky but the tempo and the cunt in 'Papi' by Todrick Hall and Nicole Scherzinger from 'Straight Outta Oz' (musical) is unmatched, and there's a music video with some dancing.

Oh my gosh, yes 😫. I love all of these things.

For the Mihawk Tango/Pasadoble; immediately my mind went:

-Zorro & Elena from The Mask of Zorro: Soooo enemies to lovers

-Mr & Mrs Smith, the drama and disaster: I love it

-AND!!!!! El Tango de Roxanne from Moulin Rogue: Need I say more? The DRAMA, The EMOTION, AHH.

-TAKE THE LEAD is where my brain went YES!!!!!! The dominant gentleman lead, the DRAMA I LOVE.

For the Luffy Bachata its a bit more tricky for me to find an appropriate reference for it because he's so PLAYFUL and less sensual than the way it.

-Mr & Mrs Smith has the Mondo Bongo scene that I think about quite regularly for references.

-I also am on the dance side of TikTok currently, these vids keep popping up and I adore them.

Now, for the Buggy Solo I'm having some conflicting thoughts. He deserves a soft little dancey dance, but I could also see it getting VERY ANGSTY very quickly.

My song choices are as follows:

-Sway by Mr Bubes himself.

-Express Burlesque by Christina Aguilera just screams Buggy to me.

-The improv style that Emeline brings to this dance off is just MENTAL, I love it. Like, soooo playful my brain can't process it.

ZORO is REALLY TRICKY.

However, my inner teenager went immediately here, to Aang and Katara's dance in the caves.

I will need to check out RRR again, it has been a hot minute.

Shanks as a Jig is superb: @sordidmusings has me in a chokehold with this suggestion and as a former Irish Dancer myself, I simply can't imagine anything more FUN than THIS. Like, as a violinist, this is going to be so much fun to write.

Hobbits dancing on a table, The Jolly Roving Tar is just immediately speaking to me. I could also see the circular jig from Disney's Tangled being incorporated with the entire crew.

The Buggy x Mihawk Sandwich is just writing itself at this stage, my brain rot is simply drawn to the dynamic and I can't even process it.

My Little Hybrid Family_Part 7

Twisted Wonderland Masterlist  

------------------------------------------------------

Leona growled, running his hand in through his hair,  “What the devil did you drag home this time?” 

“Hello! I’m Kalim!! What are your names?” 

Azul, Floyd and Jade stood in the living room of your home, their new home. Yes, they stood, they were now wearing the pendant that your parent’s friend had locked away. Leona laid on the couch, not bothering to get up as he looked on. 

Floyd grinned, “I’m Floyd and this is Jade! And that’s Azul!” 

“That’s Leona!” Kalim introduced, pointing over his shoulder at the lion, “And you already know Jamil!” He pointed to where he was standing next to you. Then he spread his arms, “This is your new home! If you have any questions, just asked. Our Mistress is amazing! You’ll love it here!” 

“That remains to be determined”, Azul spoke coolly crossing his arms. 

----------------------------------------------------

“You seriously brought a van?” squealed Kalim.  

You had went out that morning a week after Azul, Floyd and Jade had come to live with you, promising to have a surprise for everyone. Floyd and Kalim were the most excited. 

“Is it fun?” Floyd aked. 

“What is it?” Kalim almost yelled. 

Jamil was a bit more composed, but you could see curiosity swirling in the depth of his eyes. Azul still hadn’t stopped being suspicious, eyeing you in silent judgement, while Leona just yawned. 

“Yep! Our little family is growing! There is no way my car is going to fit everyone if we were going somewhere all together. Now we can! Which means, road trip!!” 

Kalim and Floyd almost dove into the van, while Jamil and Azul followed at a sedate pace. Leona had turned to go back into the house, but you grabbed his clothes before he could disappear. 

“You are part of this family too! Get in the car!” you chirped. 

“You do realize our family keep growing because you keep picking up strays, right?” he growled without any real heat. 

You fought hard not to laugh, “Take a look at your situation.” 

He grumbled before getting into the van as well. It only took about fifteen minutes before you pulled into Mr. Sam’s shop. You had no idea how a mom-and-pop store like his hasn't been brought out by now, but Sam would smile and just say it was thanks to his friends on the other side. 

Kalim gave a loud cheer when he saw the shop. It’s been ages since they’ve been here. He and Jamil were the only ones that had been to this shop. He loved hanging out here. 

Azul noted that Jamil had brought two small boxes with them that he passed to you once everyone was out. He couldn’t help but to briefly wondered what it was. Floyd and Jade were looking around in undisguised wonder. He snorted silently. A week in and already they were losing themselves to your so-called charm. He would be vigilant. He was not going to get tricked again. He wondered how long it would take for you to decide to ditch them. He hadn’t exactly been mean to you, but hadn’t been nice either. But strangely, you had taken his cool demeanor towards you in stride. 

Jamil only smirked at him. 

“You’ll get there.” Was all he said. 

Azul did not want to get there. 

Wherever there was. 

The bell rung at the shop as Kalim pushed the door open, followed closely by Floyd. 

“OOoooh…”, Floyd drawled, looking around at all the knicknacks. There was even stuff hanging from the ceiling. 

A voice finally sounded, “Hey my little imps!! It's been awhile!!” 

Kalim gave a giant wave as a tall man walked out followed by two more behind him, “Hello Mr. Sam!! Jack, Ruggie!!” 

The shop owner, Mr. Sam only grinned, “Oh my, you’ve been busy Miss Y/N. Has your family grown?” 

You nodded, “Indeed.” 

Sam spread his arms, “Welcome to my humble shop! We have everything and anything you could possibly want. There ain't nothing I don't have or cannot get. I even got things I haven’t even tried! Please browse and discover more than just parlor tricks. Jack! Ruggie!” 

Sam disappeared deeper into the store as the two stepped forward. Ruggie grinned as he saddled up to you, “Do I smell what I think I smell?” 

You played coy, “And what do you think you smell?” 

Ruggie smacked his lips as he eyed the box, “Something delicious, I hope.”  

You lifted the box, inviting him to take it, “You'd be correct.” 

He threw open the box and pulled one out, his tail giving a short wag, “Donuts!!! Thank you, Miss Y/N!!”  

“And this is for you, Jack.” You handed the other box to him. 

Jack's ears perked up when he opened and saw a small cactus. His tail wagged a little, “Thank you for your kindness, Miss Y/n.” 

You shook your head with a smile, “No need to be so formal. Now!!” You turned to the others, “Boys, time to pick out some things.” You turned back to Ruggie and Jack, “These three need their own sets of clothes.”  You pointed as the twins and Azul.  All they had to date were the clothes they had from their former owner. Why they even had their own clothes when she didn’t even allow them to shift into human form was beyond you, but okay. 

You noticed that Floyd didn't need an invitation as he darted further into the store and disappeared down an isle. Jade followed at a sedate pace, while Azul hung back. Kalim started chatting with Ruggie and Jack to catch up. You noted he had managed to pull Leona into the mix as well.  Meanwhile, Jamil had long since disappeared. 

You smiled gently at Azul who only gave a light sneer before walking further into the store.  You wandered into the back to chat with Sam for a little bit before deciding to make rounds and see how everyone was doing. 

You first came across Leona, who was still hanging with Ruggie and Jack. Kalim you noted had disappeared. You were surprised, but it was quite a happy sight for you. Then you noted that Leona had boredly snatched Ruggie’s hand away from his pocket. So Ruggie was still trying to pick pocket? Watch you faint in surprised. Which reminds you. You patted your own pocket where you had placed a small donut trinket you had found. 

Yep, it was gone. 

Despite being caught, Ruggie only laughed as Leona rolled his eyes. Jack was standing stoticly and shook his head. Both of them had been part of the black market of hybrids before landing with Sam. 

Because of Jack’s statue, he was forced into a lot of fighting rings. Those fights were do or die. Despite that, Jack didn’t like fighting and was the gentlest soul you knew. It seemed that Ruggie was a black market slave sold to the highest bidder. But he escaped and learned to be clever to survive. That was how he sharpened his pick pocket skills. You were happy to see they were both settled in, working at Sam’s shop. They were safe there. If anywhere was a safe haven for stray hybrids, it was Mr. Sam’s shop. 

You walked on. 

“Ooh, put this on!! Oh, they got three!” 

That was Floyd and you followed the voice to see the twins and Azul wearing identical fedora hats. 

You couldn’t help yourself, “Sharp! Sharp!!” 

Azul almost jumped while Floyd laughed, “Don't you think? We are getting them! Shrimpy what do you think of these glasses on Azul?”  

Azul absently pushed them up on the bridge of his nose, “I don't exactly need them, Floyd.” 

“Yes, but it makes you look smart, just like those businessmen.”, Jade offered. 

Azul hissed at him, once glancing at you. 

You spoke, “They look very nice. Very you. Adds more character. Get them if you like them.” 

“See!! Shrimpy said so! We are getting them!” Floyd said before pulling Jade and Floyd off. Azul offered more verbal protest, and you decided to go in the opposite direction. 

You came across Jamil busy at the spice rack, while you passed Kalim looking at jewelry. When you next came across Azul he was alone, intensely into a book. You made sure to make noise as you walked. 

“For the last time Floyd, I…” he stopped abruptly when he saw it was you. 

“Something interesting?” 

“Maybe…”

You peered at the title Business Acumen. 

You looked back at him, “Jade said you were interested in business?” 

“Jade should have kept his mouth shut.” Azul mumbled, “I'm just interested in understanding you humans.” he pushed his glassed up. You realize they had already become a part of him. “If I do that, I will never be taken advantage of again.”

“And that requires a business sense?”, You questioned. 

Azul pursed his lips. You shrugged, opting not to push anymore, “Buy it if you like it… “

Without another word, you walked off. When it was time to pay up, you were pleased to see that there was a nice little haul. The twins and Azul got new clothes, but it seems everyone got something they like for pleasure as well. You were shocked to see a body pillow suddenly thrown into the pile. You looked up to see Leona glaring down at you as if daring you to say something. You glanced to see Ruggie grinning. 

“Hey, seems little Ruggie manage to sell you on something.” spoke Sam not missing a beat,  “Good, I will charge it right up!!” 

You would have paid to know how Ruggie managed to get Leona to buy this for himself. You were grateful, and honestly it was something that you knew Leona would use. In fact, you were happy that Leona, Azul and the twins all got something they liked especially for their first time here.  Since arriving, Leona had refused to go back outside. You were the one that figured out his measurements and got him new clothes. You noticed that he had also picked out a few outfits as well.  Once paid and bagged, Jack had packed everything in the trunk. 

Sam waved from the front door, “Thank you little imps! Please come again!” 

“And bring donuts!!” Ruggie shamelessly asked. 

As you were pulling out of the parking lot, Floyd remarked, “That was so much fun!!” 

“I'm glad you enjoyed it. How about you, Leona?”  

Leona gave a pointed yawn, “Ask me after nap time.” 

You smirked. You knew he was excited to test out his new pillow. Azul was already buried in his new book. Floyd had managed to find some plushies. He got a shrimp one and Jade had a mushroom one. A bag of spice sat in Jamil’s lap. He had a small smile on this face as he looked out the window. You knew he was planning a menu. Kalim talked about his new throw rug he found this time as he continually rotated through his new bracelets. 

You were happy that this trip was as success. 

If your hybrids were happy, then you were too. 

Part 8

[berryunho]

Just binge-read The Answer in a day and let me say that the plot is fucking insane, how the hell do you people come up with something so intense? Lmao, anyways I love reacting to mc's actions and inner monologue like a bff hearing some tea over a videocall "girl no he stabbed you, dont think about him as a normal person, he isnt one, with him its supposed to be throwing hands on sight for sURVIVAL"

And yet I still managed to get gaslit, girlbossed and gatekept by her relationship with san, tell me why I was here reading chapter 29 and thinking "wow he really is bringing up some red flags now after that fight" and then had to stop myself right there because the very first red flag that man had raised was from the very beginning wheRE HE GREETS HER TO THE CULT *BC HE IS PART OF THE MF CULT*

I CANT BELIEVE I FELL FOR IT, WTF

Anyways, can't wait for more, but take your time lol, I am as excited as everyone else but you are doing this for free and with something this good it's honestly such a service, thanks for all the effort <3 hope you're doing well and hope that you keep writing even after or outside of The Answer because you genuinely do such an amazing job building up descriptions and characters, I am very curious about everything we are yet to see, and I did wanna ask, sorry if you have answered this before, but do you already have an ending planned for the story?

- 👁👁

UM ? I LOVE YOU WAIT LET ME PUT THE OTHER MESSAGES UNDER THE READ MORE AND THEN RESPOND LAKDJF;ALKSDFJ

Just wanted to add that not only do I react like a nosy bff in a call with the mc as I read The Answer, but I also judge the absolute hell out of her choices not as in "this is gonna get you killed" but as in "I would 100% be going tinfoil hat in HJ's ass about the other world ages ago for entertainment alone" I CAN'T BE THE ONLY ONE CMON Mr Cultist wants me to go from city dwelling college student to hillbilly cult wifey in 2 days? HE TAKES AWAY MY PHONE ONLY TO TELL ME HIS BIBLE FANFIC IS BASED OFF THE SHIFTING REALITIES COMMUNITY? THE ONE THAT WAS BIG ON TIKTOK IN 2021? Be fucking for real, I would, on day 1, sit down in front of him and go "already, so whats up with the other you? You two still chat? Also whats up with his version of Hwa? Is he a petty little shit too? Are they in a questionable fwb situationship too? Do you still get prophecies? If so, why are there so many prints of your walmart bible around? Cause that seems like an awful waste when you will inevitably have to print just as many more with the new updates so wtf" He takes away my entertainment when I have the attention span of a 4 year old? Fine, he is gonna have to entertain *me* now to make up for it, bible study time? More like you are now my social media outlet where I'm gonna rant about my crazy theories, my favorite ships and I will overanalyze each and every plot hole in your bible sir, I don't care that its a prophecy, I want consistency from your writing about the other world, I want detailed descriptions, I want to feel like I am there, how do you expect to win New York's best seller with this vague ass paragraph about your little lost boys crew in trenchcoats? I'm gonna annoy him into killing me and realizing I'm not the one, his stalking time all going down the drain. I consider this an absolute win for me.

Okay I'm so sorry for sending another ask when I just sent two humongous ones lol but I did remember one thing I wanted to ask and I hope it doesn't come off wrong bc I mean nothing bad about it at all but back when HJ was all "I'm only gonna do the devils tango with you when you beg me to uwu" and mc thinks "damn, at least my local cult leader got some consent morals going" I couldn't help but stop myself and wonder: girl. He made out with you. In front of at least 40 people. When you were drugged. Clearly tripping. By his orders. And he stabbed you right after but most importantly he has bragged about making out with you IN FRONT OF A CROWD WHEN YOU WERE TRIPPING BY HIS OWN DESIGN And yknow, my question is: was mc's (continuous) lapse in judgment in this moment to blame for her not realizing he in fact does not give a flying fuck about consent and she just let that slide bc the cult mentality was getting to her (which we do see progress over the story, and its been one of the most interesting parts of the fic btw, I think you did really well with that) or did you not mean for it to be that and I read too much into it? Lol because yeah he is a self admitted and apparently diagnosed psycho but you'd think he would see how this morals he just tried to brag and seduce her with are not moralling at all. Or maybe he just hoped she wouldn't realize his delusional-moral compass isn't gonna point correctly no matter what way he tries, I'm definitely thinking too hard about it at this point lmao HE REALLY IS GETTING INTO MY PARANOID BRAIN, THE MIND GAMES ARE CONSUMING ME FR Anyways, again, sorry for the long asks one right after the other, I'll stop pestering now.

I fucking lied, I'm sending another one to ask if you happen to have any fics to recommend that maybe give off The Answer vibes or that you think may be a good read while we are all on standby bc I just got hit by the withdrawals-after-a-good-fic now that I realized I can't keep reading since I got to the last chapter lol. I'm so sorry. - 👁👁

first of all let me say it again: i love you. thank you so much for reading the answer and for being kind and for wanting to tell me and ask me so many things!! i really, really appreciate it and pls dont feel bad for sending me asks (big or small) bc it just makes me SO happy lol i feel bad that you've been waiting for a response for so long but LKJF:KDJF:AKDF I WILL DO MY BEST TO ADDRESS EVERYTHING so here we go:

I did wanna ask, sorry if you have answered this before, but do you already have an ending planned for the story?

hehe no worries at all!! i do have an ending planned and i know how we will get there, but there are certain elements and plot points that aren't solid yet and could be changed!! but i am set on the ending ^^

the entire second ask is just so valid. like tbh i would absolutely be the same. like id be scared af for a few days but once i realized i wasnt gonna like DIE immediately and that i could get away with annoying hj like at least a little bit id be on his ass. honestly and truly the main reason that i havent written more of like... the answer in the story is bc im too concerned that anything i wrote would be torn apart for analysis when i wouldnt actually be reading that far into it LKJA;SKFDJSD bc like you're right anything that hj would be writing would be very pertinent information TO HIM but like... does it actually mean anything... or is it just words... LOL idk if that makes sense but everytime i try to write like in the style of a religious text with the answer lore it sounds so ridiculous i just cannot take myself seriously enough to do it KLAJKS;DFJASKFD BUT HELP YOU POINTING OUT THE SHIFTING LORE? LITERALLY THE EXACT SYSTEM I STOLE THIS LORE FROM I HAD NO IDEA WHAT I WAS DOING WHEN I STARTED WRITING I WAS JUST LIKE idfk whats something weird that i can connect to the ateez lore that i dont remotely understand AND THATS WHAT I CAME UP WITHALKDSFLA;JDSFJLSKDJ you are real

And yknow, my question is: was mc's (continuous) lapse in judgment in this moment to blame for her not realizing he in fact does not give a flying fuck about consent and she just let that slide bc the cult mentality was getting to her (which we do see progress over the story, and its been one of the most interesting parts of the fic btw, I think you did really well with that) or did you not mean for it to be that and I read too much into it?

eheheeheheheheh i really was waiting for someone to point this one out!!! i definitely meant it to be a lapse in her judgement and like a ...... hmmm idk how to put it like she's selectively forgetting things that don't match with what she WANTS to believe !! like personally i would never in my life write a member of ateez to be a rapist so we obvs won't be worrying about that BUT if this were a real situation, that would probably be a very real fear to have and i figured it would be a good thing to address in case anyone was like. worried about that. LKAJSKFDJASDLFK but yes you're right they're obviously not above MURDER so like. how much credit can we give them. its really just mc wanting desperately to alleviate some of her fear and believe that she is at least a tiny bit safe (even though that is CLEARLY not the case)

if you happen to have any fics to recommend that maybe give off The Answer vibes or that you think may be a good read while we are all on standby

heh this one is tough because ... im not really a fanfic reader LAKJDFKLAJSDFK but my beloved mutuals bee (@atzfilm) and caly (@hongism) are geniuses hehe !! bee writes dark fics that are mwah chefs kiss and caly writes mists of celeste which has a toxic unyielding leader hongjoong. so. you know.

SO YEAH ANYWAYS? THANK YOU SO MUCH AGAIN FOR THESE ASKS AJDKFALSDKFJSKLDJ AND IM SORRY AGAIN THAT IT TOOK ME FOREVER TO REPLY AND THAT THE UPDATE IS ALSO TAKING FOREVER LOL I HOPE YOU'RE STILL AROUND LAKJDFLKSJDF

Muu: Mr. Lono, Mr. Bastein, Mr, Haures! Thank you for your hard work on angel hunting today!

Muu: Everyone did such a great job!

Lono: Heh heh heh! It's no biggie.

Haures: Thanks to master's presence, angel hunting has become much easier.

Haures: I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Choices:

It's no big deal.

No, no.

Haures: I shouldn't have come with you today.

Haures: Lono and Bastien were more than enough.

Bastien: Today's angel was too weak.

Muu: That's because Mr. Lono and Mr. Bastien are strong~.

Muu: This is definitely thanks to the daily hands-on training!

Lono: Can you praise me some more?

Muu: Mr. Lono is amazing!

Haures: Lono, don't get too carried away.

Bastien: Hmm... You're weak because you're satisfied with that difficulty.

Lono: What'd you just say?

Bastien: If you have something to retort, say it after you beat me.

Lono: Sure, I lost yesterday, but I'll definitely win next time! Mark my words!

Bastien: A man who can only talk is useless.

Lono: Grr…. This guy...

Bastien: What? Do you want to be beat again?

Muu: Stop fighting! People in town are watching!

Choices:

Calm down, both of you!

Lono: Ugh... Master...

Lono: ... If you say so, then I have no choice but to obey.

Lono: Tch... I'll let it pass this time, Bastien. But there won't be a next time.

Bastien: Mm...

Muu: Haah... Mr. Bastien and Mr. Lono sure are giving us a hard time with all this fighting.

Haures: Muu. Do you now understand what I have to deal with?

Muu: Good work, Mr. Haures...

Lono: Hey, Muu. Are you speaking ill of me?

Muu: Eh?!

Muu: I didn't say anything! I didn't say anything! It's all a misunderstanding!

Lono: Really?

Muu: Ahahaha...

Muu: Oh, right! Speaking of which, Mr. Lono.

Muu: Why did you want to stop by town before leaving?

Lono: Ah. I thought I'd finish shopping for ingredients.

Lono: I feel bad for the master, but...

Lono: It'll be quick, so could you come shopping with me?

Lono: Bastien. Please help with the bags.

Bastien: Sure... Since it's to do with food...

A few minutes later

Bastien: ...

City woman: Ah! Look, look! There! Isn't that the Devil Butler, Bastien?

City woman: It's true! It's Bastien!

City woman: Ah~. His side profile is so cool!

Bastien: ...

Muu: Somehow I can already feel people staring at us...

Choices:

There's lots of cheering for Bastien...

Bastien: Master. Don't worry about it.

Bastien: Those women just watch from a distance and don't do anything in particular.

Bastien: Don't worry, I'm not your enemy.

Choices:

Enemy...

Lono: Why do women always make a fuss when Bastien walks by?

Lono: What's so good about this fox bastard?

Muu: Mr. Lono, are you jealous by any chance?

Lono: I'm not! I just don't understand why this guy is so popular.

Bastien: It's stupid.

Bastien: I'm not interested in anything other than getting stronger.

Bastien: You're weak because you're distracted by these things.

Lono: No one said I'm distracted!

Bastien: I wonder.

Whispering...

Choices:

I feel like I'm getting some kind of nasty stare this time.

City man: A devil butler...

City man: Tricking the city's women...

City man: Get out of this town now...!

Muu: Huh, what are those people saying?

Haures: There are a lot of people in town who don't think very well of us.

Bastien: This is always the case.

Haures: Hey, Lono.

Lono: Yeah, I know.

Lono: Master, staying long is dangerous. Let's finish our errands early and go home.

-

A while later

Lono: All right! With these ingredients, I'll be good for a while!

Muu: You bought so much! I'm looking forward to the food you make!

Haures: Well then, master. Shall we head back to the mansion?

Haures: Hey, Bastien. Let's go.

...

Haures: Bastien?

Muu: Huh? We were walking together just now...

City woman: Look, look! The cool butler is over there!

City woman: Where, where? I want to see his face up close too!

Muu: "Cool butler"...

Lono: Haah... This Bastien guy...

Central Country - Espoir - Blacksmith

Bastien: This sword caught my eye.

Blacksmith: As expected of a regular customer.

Blacksmith: It's my newfound pride and joy.

Blacksmith: No matter how hard the armor is, it won't break!

Bastien: I see.

Blacksmith: However, the only problem is that it is a little heavy. Ordinary people use up all their power just holding it...

Bastien: It's light...

Bastien: A heavier sword would fit better.

Blacksmith: How can you carry it like it's light!?

Blacksmith: No, that's impossible. Are devil butlers monsters after all...?

Bastien: Hey. Don't call people monsters.

Blacksmith: I'm sorry! Please, spare my life!

Bastien: ... You don't need to apologize that profusely.

Bastien: I don't attack innocent people.

Lono: Ouch. Hey Bastien.

Lono: You were here after all.

Bastien: Lono.

Haures: Bastien. I always tell you not to wander around on your own.

Bastien: I'm sorry... A sword just caught my eye...

Lono: Hah, how much does this guy like swords?

Haures: Right...

Whoosh...

???: Hey, demons. Get out of there.

Lono: Huh?

???: You're a nuisance! Leave now!

Muu: Woah...!

Choices:

Muu, are you okay?

Muu: Ouch...

Muu: What's going on all of a sudden, who are these people...?

Haures: The military police of the Grosvenor family.

Choices:

Military police?

Haures: The Grosvenor family, aristocrats who rule the central land.

Haures: These are the soldiers under their direct command...

Haures: They don't like us devil butlers.

Haures: The important role of hunting angels... It's been taken over by the devil butlers.

Haures: Maybe it's due to jealousy... But they always antagonise us.

Military Policeman: Hey, you there.

Bastien: What?

Military Policeman: That sword.

Military Policeman: A demon like you doesn't deserve it.

Bastien: Huh?

End of Chapter 2

Chapter 1, Chapter 3

[lokigoddess]

After having time to reflect on what happened this season, I decided to share my thoughts on Stranger Things 4  *Spoilers*

The darker tone and Nightmare on Elm Street references were amazing, and went well with the series. The actors are getting better and better at playing their parts, and they have excellent chemistry together. I wish I had seen more of the California crew, and I didn’t like that they were separated from the rest of the group. Also, the Russia subplot was a little boring. As for the soundtrack, the songs used were spectacular, especially (no surprise here) Running Up the Hill, Separate Ways, and Master of Puppets. The music from season 4 was the best of the entire series and is among the best in television history.

Now on to the star of the season... Eddie Munson

Even though he only appeared in one season, Eddie was fantastic in it, and his role was so endearing that he has become one of the most loved characters and, although I've adored Will Byers from season 1 episode 1, Eddie managed to beat him as my favourite character. Another thing I loved was his interaction with Dustin; in my opinion, it was superior to that of Dustin and Steve. I believe their bond was more one of friendship and connection than with Dustin and our favorite babysitter. And considering how much I adore Dustin and Steve, that's saying a lot. And the scene when he is playing Metallica!? It is one of the best scenes of all time and one that I will always remember. He put on a hell of a show.

Now let me talk about the Duffer brothers' famous cowardice. They simply don't have the guts to kill a main character. Hopper was supposed to have died in that explosion and survived, and now Max. She has been put into a coma because, somehow, she will “come back to life" in the final season. We all anticipated Eddie would be the new Bob and Alexei since killing off a new character is their speciality. Plus, they should speak less during interviews because they promised there would be bloodshed, a body count, and the deaths of main characters at the end of this season, but none of those things happened (unless they considered Eddie to be a main character, which I do not think so, because Jason and the rest who died clearly were not).

Regarding Eddie's death, I thought it was unnecessary and pointless. I think, even if he had to die, it could have been different (like saving Nancy, Steve and Robin). I don’t believe death was the only option for him, and that is why I thought the writing was somewhat lazy. As Dustin explained to Mr. Munson on one of the most beautiful and heartbreaking scenes of the series (I sobbed so hard), Eddie died to save a city that hated him and many still believed he was a murderer and the reincarnation of the devil. It was not fair because he had such a beautiful soul. His death was in vain. Not to mention that only Dustin and Mr. Munson were sad about his death. Anyway, they did Eddie dirty. And what makes me sad is that he had so much potential. It would be perfect to have him in season 5, and Joseph would undoubtedly deliver another show. And to be quite honest, Stranger Things has never had as much hype as it had this season, and Eddie Munson was the main reason for that. Metalheads from all over the world felt incredibly well represented once in their lives, people started listening to rock music because of him, everyone on TikTok, Twitter, and Instagram was (and still is) talking about him, commenting on the various theories about what music he would play, people who had never seen the series started watching because of him. In episode 9, his name had more than 500k mentions on Twitter. Max's "death" didn't even come close (I wonder why). Anyway, Eddie was the star in season 4, and my lovely metalhead will always be missed because he was flawless from beginning to end. Thank you, Joseph!

so if i can never give you peace by queen taytay :)

relating to the story i think the lyric "the devil's in the details, but you've got a friend in me" somehow just really describes the tone of jk x oc's relationship from her perspective, especially the second phrase 'but you've got a friend in me'. i feel like it describes how oc unpurposefully made jk trust her back when he was a fighter. like when she brought him food and he relaxed as he ate it in front of her because he knew he felt safer around her than anyone else?

like it's hard to explain but he was comfortable around her back then because despite his justified hatred for everyone there, she was somewhat obvious about always having his safety and best interest in mind, and being almost like his caretaker. he knew she was 'on his side' in a way or that they were a team. because back then she was really the only person who 'knew' him, right? and she did really know everything about him in fact, and was the only person who did.

and if jungkook just took a step back before looking at the way things were back then, he would see that she blatantly did everything to protect him and take care of him. like is he just gonna ignore the fact that she regularly picked up food from his favorite restaurants for him? or the fact that she always wanted to pick easy opponents for his fights?

deep down he knows, and like you've said in a previous ask, if oc died in the first raid with mr. x he wouldn't have cared but later it would come back to haunt him? yeah, he definitely knows deep down how much she was a caretaker and how much he trusted her back then. just because hes dealing with so much trauma and anger and emotions now that he can't see the truth about the past concerning oc. but he will. (he has too or ill sue him)

the thing is i still don't understand the title or the lyric 'would it be enough if i could never give you peace?' and it's probably because tbh i don't even understand what taylor meant in the original song.

if you don't mind me asking, what does the title mean to the story? 'would it be enough if i could never give you peace...'

your writing is amazing and you are a genius and you have all my respect. bye<3

Oh gosh this was such a wonderful message to receive, thank you anon 😭

This is a great question and I’m delighted you’re giving me the opportunity to discuss it.

So, Taylor is originally likely talking about the issues that her fame causes in her relationships. She will never be able to give her loved ones peace, because people will always be invested in her relationships, they will gossip about it, there will be paparazzis, etc. If I remember correctly, she discusses the topic with Aaron Dessner in the Long Pond Studios recording, and he says that for him, the lyrics of the song connect to his struggle with depression, with essentially the same worry. And so the question is kind of “Will my love/our relationship be enough, if I can never give you peace?”. Another way of phrasing it could be “is it worth it to you, if I can never give you peace?”

For this story, the most direct interpretation relates to OC, at various points in time. There are a few times in the story where she regrets failing in getting Jungkook out of the very dangerous environment they're in. She played a direct role in getting him in it, and she didn’t manage to get him out. There is a literal 'peace' lost here, because his life will always be in danger, and a more metaphorical one, referring to the fact that he lost his innocence and will never get it back. A large part of her efforts in the story are directed more or less towards redeeming herself for him specifically. “Will you ever forgive me, if I can never give you peace?” As we move forward with the story and as their relationship deepens, the question starts to take on a meaning closer to that of the song. Is it right for them to develop something, considering her role and the fact that redemption is (in her mind) forever out of reach?

So that is the main meaning, and then there’s a slightly more spoilery take on it under the cut!

To answer the rest of your ask though, this is a very good analysis on Jungkook’s character and feelings, and I think it’s hard to explain because there are a lot of messy feelings involved as well. Like you’re completely right about the fact that OC wanted to protect him, and her actions show that, but on the other hand, she always hid her actual emotions and her justifications were pretty horrible ones. Like in the last chapter, she tells him that she had him train because that way he’d earn more money for Mr. X, and it takes everything for her to admit that she didn’t have to do it and that really, she did it because she cared. So Jungkook is just starting to understand that he has to look at everything through a different lens when it comes to her. Hiding her emotions was life-saving around Mr. X, but she kinda got too good at it.

(And then, related but different problem, Jungkook really wanted to believe that Anna loved him for most of the time he spent fighting there. So he had to tell himself that OC didn’t really care, because if she did, that would be more than Anna was doing, and there would be no way that she really loved him — and she possibly never loved him.)

So yes. Messy and complicated, for both of them really.

Thank you so much for the ask, it was so interesting to read your perspective and it’s so nice to see people being that invested in these characters 😊 There’s a little tidbit more under the cut, and I hope I managed to shed some light on the title!

By the end (it’s not that big of a spoiler that they’ll get together, I think, but this says a quite a lot about their relationship so.), the question is kind of flipped on its head, and that’s partly why the title is just ‘if i can never give you peace’. It’s likely that, in any other situation, these two would not have become involved together. They come together strictly as a result of the horrible situation they’re both in. So in a way, it’s the fact that they can never bring each other peace that makes it worth it. There’s no backing out, there’s no hope for peace for them, whether or not they’re together. So if they can never give each other peace, they might as well do it together. It may be hard and complicated and messy at times, because their partner is always going to be in some kind of danger, but there would be even less point to their existence if they weren’t at least together.

[AKNK] Butler in Wonderland / Chapter 8 - Embarrassing(?) Inspection

Prev | All | Next 

[Devil's Palace, Conservatory]

Berrien: "What… the jewel to unlock the ring is gone?"

Fennesz: "Yes… I'm really sorry."

> "Don't be discouraged, Fennesz."

Fennesz: "Y-yes… my Lord…"

Haures: "And so, Mr. Berrien and the others... We need your help to find the jewel."

Berrien: "S-sure, of course. If we don't find the jewel... The Lord will not be able to return, after all."

Lono: "Mr. Berrien… doesn't your face look a bit too happy?"

Berrien: "H-how could I! It's not like that… Of course I am happy that the Lord is here. But... this and that are different matters."

Lono: "Heheh, I know, I know. I was joking, Mr. Berrien!"

Teddy: "So, we're going to look for the jewel in this room, is that right?"

Haures: "Yeah. But before we do that... Sorry, but we'd like to inspect everyone's belongings."

Lono: "What? You mean frisking?"

Haures: "Yes. Just in case..."

Fennesz: "...Sorry. It's my fault…"

Lono: "N-no! I don't mind at all. Go ahead! You're going to check our pockets, aren't you?"

Haures: "Yeah. Alright, let me check it out right away.”

[A few minutes later]

Haures: "Hmm... In Lono's pockets, there are… Cooking notes, shopping lists,.... and dried meat, huh."

Teddy: "Dried meat...? Is that your snack, Lono?"

Lono: "What? No, that isn't for me."

Teddy: "Oh, I see. Then it's for Bastien–"

Lono: "No way. Why in the world would I carry around Bastien's snack. This meat... It's a food I reserve for the hungry people."

Teddy: "For the hungry people...?"

Lono: "That's right. When you walk around the city, don't you sometimes see homeless people who are hungry and about to collapse? When I find such a person, I give them some of this dried meat… After that, I tell them where the free food places are… and I introduce them to a nice orphanage.  Just by having food ready in my pocket… would greatly reduce the difficulty of starting a talk!"

Teddy: "Ooh~... You are very kind, Lono."

Berrien: "Indeed ♪ You have saved many lives that way."

Lono: "O-oh no… It's not a big deal."

Teddy: "Fufu… I see, so it’s like that."

Lono: "Hm? What do you mean by 'I see'? Mr. Teddy."

Teddy: "Oh, nothing... I just remember there was an older lady in my neighborhood. She used to give me a candy bar every time I saw her.  That too, must have been… a way to make it easier to greet people, isn't it!"

Lono: "Uh, uhm… maybe…?"

Haures: "Anyway... Lono's inspection is over… Teddy, can we go through your belongings next?"

Teddy: "Sure! Anytime!!"

Haures: "Well... what I found in your pocket... it looks like a notepad... Hmm?"

> "What's wrong?"

Haures: "Uh, yeah... Something's been bothering me. Excuse me, Teddy. The title of this notepad is 'Everyone's Muscle Records'... What in the world does that mean…?"

> " 'Everyone's Muscle Records'…? "

Teddy: "Hehe, it means exactly what it says. I'm observing everyone's muscle tone. I thought it might be helpful for my own muscle training.  If you are interested, you can read it, Mr. Haures!"

Haures: "Hmm… I don't like to look at other people's notes, but… now I'm curious... So, can you show me just what it said about me?"

Teddy: "Yes, sir! I have written about Mr. Haures on this page."

Haures: "Alright, thank you. Let's see...

'He has a well-balanced workout, it's amazing how there's no moment wasted!' 'Maybe it's not just a matter of training for the sake of training, but perhaps it's a matter of both strength and endurance.' 'The muscles in his arms, back, hips, and buttocks to legs, are splendid…'

…wait a minute, Teddy. Where did you get this detailed observation…?"

Teddy: "Huh? When we bathed together, of course. I can't waste time even when I'm working up a sweat! Wherever we are, we study every day!"

Haures: "...I didn't realize that.... No wonder we often share a bath together after training."

Teddy: "Oh, of course, that's not the only reason. Soaking in the bathtub together makes for great conversation and bonding, it's killing two birds with one stone! Hehe. It's no different from when I was in the military. It's wise to get along with your companions!"

Haures: "...I see. At any rate, is the notepad actually including all of the butlers…"

Fennesz: "Um… by any chance, do you write about me too?"

Teddy: "Why, of course! Would you like to see the page about Mr. Fennesz?"

Fennesz: "Hm, hmmm~... I'm worried about what it says.... But If I don't read it, I'll get worried....  I-I think I'll have a look…"

Teddy: "Yes sir! Here you go!"

Fennesz: "Oh, thank you. Hmm… Let’s see, let’s see…

'As expected from Mr. Fennesz, He always uses huge weapons, and he has great muscles.' 'He must have put in a lot of effort to train like that. I have to learn from him…'

N-no… I'm not to that extent… Hm, hm…

'Also, Mr. Fennesz has an amazing core-strength!  He almost slipped on a soap bar in the bathroom just now.' 'He was almost falling over, but he kept flailing his arms and legs… In the end, he didn't fall over…'

Wait—... You even take note of these things!?"

Teddy: "Yes!! I was so impressed with Mr. Fennesz's movements...! You stayed for about 10 seconds in the state between falling and not falling... In the end, you didn't fall over!"

Fennesz: "Uhh... Don't be impressed by that embarrassing move…"

Lono: "Hmmm... I'm curious to know what it says about me too... On the other hand, I'm starting to think it's better not to know."

Berrien: "Y-yes, that's right... I'll refrain from doing so."

Haures: "Well then… Only Mr. Berrien left. I'm sorry to bother you, but.... May I please inspect your pockets?"

Berrien: "Uh, well… understood… ….…..Phew… I'm in trouble…"

> "What's wrong, Berrien?

Lono: " D-Don't tell me… You have the red jewel in your pocket...?

Berrien: "N-No! That's not the case..."

Lono: "I know~ Then, what's the problem?"

Berrien: "Well… I'm a little embarrassed, um... Please don't laugh, okay…?"

Haures: "So.... In Mr. Berrien's pockets, there are.... A handkerchief, the mansion's keys, and... Lip balm, right?

Teddy: "Huh? What's so embarrassing about these belongings?"

Berrien: "Th-that is… It may not be unusual for young people nowadays, but… I'm still reluctant to be seen with lip balm.... Since… I am from an old generation."

Teddy: "Oh, I see. Is that so? No one is thinking that's embarrassing! It's all right! Right, my Lord?"

> "Teddy's right."

Fennesz: "Yes, you're right. Just as expected from Mr. Berrien, you're rather attentive to self-care too. It's getting dry these days... Maybe I should use some lip balm as well."

Lono: "Oh, me too! Please let me know your recommendation next time, Mr. Berrien!"

Berrien: "Thank you very much, everyone... Fufu. Well then, next time I'll recommend some lip balms ♪"

In the end, the red diamond was not found during the frisking on the butlers…

We left the search of the conservatory to them… while Haures, Fennesz, and I headed to the garden.

I wish I could formulate proper words for just how much I absolutely adore your Dandelion Wishes series but really I’m still just getting “internal screaming Noelle” and keyboard smash because AHSHNDSDHS!! I am just completely and totally in love with this work! It is by far one of the greatest things I have ever read on the internet, and my life is infinitely better having gotten to read it! Thank you so so much for writing!!

First of all, you just get William! He wants to live up to people’s expectations, but he’s very humble, down to earth, and doesn’t see himself as this great, amazing magic knight captain everyone makes him out to be. At root, he’s really just a regular guy who cares about his squad and is always trying his best to do the right thing and to help the kingdom & people in need. He’s also a little bit shy and serious, but he's very kind and gentlehearted. I love this bit of comedy of errors/funny misunderstandings he finds himself in, in this story, just because he doesn’t really want to rock the boat too much or hurt Zera and Yami's feelings. His easy-going attitude of acceptance of this 'marriage' and taking it so seriously (i.e. getting a proper ring for her) is just perfect, perfect William (who really just wouldn't get the joke would he?) and absolutely lovely! (Also, it’s a tiny thing but when William says he’s going to have Zera's room expanded so there is room for her plants, my heart just melted. This man!! He is too good for this world!)

Speaking of Zera, dear goodness, I love her! I love her so much! She’s funny, quirky, spirited, and a bit plucky--marches to the beat of her own drum in the most delightful way (and she's super well-developed! Just jumps to life off the page and fits in so well with the canon characters as if she was always meant to be there!) I adore her little “devil on one shoulder, angel on the other” bit so much, and she calls her plants her babies--it’s adorable! 100% agree with Yami that she’s perfect for William! Please get married and have plant babies and real babies (read Alistair) together! I need this in my life!!

You have such a gift for dialogue also! Everything any of the canon characters said was just so spot on and perfect, I could just hear it in their voices—really helped to make the story completely immersive (and really made it feel like it could be part of the canon too). There isn’t enough space here for me to quote all of my favourite exchanges in the series so far, but here are a few:

William: “She isn’t my wife so don’t call her Mrs. Vangeance’!”

Yami: “Not with that kind of attitude she won’t be”

--

Zera: “What’s that Alecdora’s problem? He was glaring at me all throughout dinner.”

William: “Alecdora’s just protective, it’ll go away soon.”

--

And my personal favourite…

William: “I got engaged.”

Langris: “I- How- Why- What happened? You just went to the market for some fresh air!”

[I honestly had to stop reading when I got to this because I was laughing so hard! This joke just has so many layers! All I could really think about was how Langris has [canonically] been promised in an arranged marriage for essentially his entire life. Not sure if he is still promised in this arranged marriage in your universe, but I still can’t help but wonder: does he really even know how marriages happen in the wild?? ^^]

Also, David in the third chapter!! Oh my gosh!! “Soo, are you getting married so suddenly because you got someone pregnant?” All the Golden Dawn members turned to David with a mixture of shock and horror. […] “ W-What? He said to ask whatever we’d like.” I’m laughing so hard, I'm crying and my face hurts! Poor William.

I'm so excited for more of this series! Dear goodness I desperately need this meeting with all the Captains, Vice Captains, and their SOs that William mentioned! I can’t wait for the next chapter—it’s going to be epic!!

Just bless your heart for making up Zera and for writing this! It’s canon in my mind (I’ve decided)! ^^ Thank you so much for sharing, Lyra!! <3

Ahwjwjwhw Acacia 😭💕💕!! I’m so glad you’re enjoying Dandelions 🥺! Abwnwjwhwggw 🙈 thank you so much for the compliment, although I’m 90% sure there are better works on the internet than mine!

So true, William doesn’t see himself as the greatest magic knight Captain like everyone else (although I feel like he is incredibly proud of his squad and all their hard work on making the GD the “best” squad)!

Yess although I can’t take full credit for the story idea, @thoughtfullyrainynightmare helped me with it and gave me the whole “marriage joke” idea that the plot is based on 😁😅! So I give her lots of credit for Dandelions 🥰!

Poor William really wouldn’t get the joke 😭, especially when he see’s Zera and Yami both taking it *so* seriously that in his mind they had to be serious 😂! Ahwjsj I’m glad you enjoyed the part where he was expanding her room for her plants 🥺, I feel like that was probably the first thing he noticed when they had met was how important her flowers and plants were to her so he wanted to make sure they would also have space at the GD base!

Aaahhhh thank you I’m so glad you love Zera 🥺😭💕! Tbh she’s probably one of my most developed OC’s besides Alistar and Neva, and I’ve been kind of playing around with her “secretly” for over a year (as in I haven’t written/posted anything more then a couple of oneshots, but there are a lot of snippets of her on discord 🤣!). Hehe the “angel and devil” on her shoulder wasn’t originally going to be in the chapter, but as I started writing it suddenly Kronk from Emperors New Groove popped into my head and it just fit Zera and the scene so well 😂!

Abwjwjhaw thank you 😭, honestly I have a love-hate relationship with Dialogue. It’s one of my favorite things to write, but then sometimes it’s one of the things I hate most 🤣! But I’m glad you enjoy it 🥺💕!

Ahwjw those are some of my favorite quotes too, and actually the first quote was an edited/partially rewritten exchange that @/thoughtfullyrainynightmare and I did on discord, although I think i completely rewrote Yami’s line for Dandelions 😅🤔. The Alecdora quote I enjoyed writing because I remembered how Alecdora is protective of William and how he (and Langris) have a feeling that she’s just using William so they automatically don’t like her (much like Alecdora acted with Yuno at first). But ofc William knows it’s just Alecdora being, well, Alecdora XD!

The last quote is also one of my favorites too, and it was anexchange between Laura and I on discord too 😂. She had William say he was engaged and I responded (as Langris) with an “I’m sorry what?” gif and we both just found it so funny so I included it in the chapter but I rewrote Langris’s line 😅😂! Tbh…I kinda forgot Langris was “engaged” to Finesse while writing this 👀, but honestly he probably doesn’t realize how marriages happen in the wild 😭!

Ahwjw That part was sooo much fun to write because, well, that’s probably where *everyones* mind went when William announced he was getting married but they just didn’t want to say anything 😂! But ofc David just says the first thing that comes to mind and it’s true, William *did* tell them to ask whatever they wanted (although I don’t think he thought they would ask that question!)😅😂😭!

Hehe luckily the next chapter will mostly consist of the meeting with the other Captain’s and their S/O’s and it doesn’t *quite* go like how Zera imagines it will 🤣!!

Ahjwjw and thank *you* for reading it and reviewing it Acacia🥺💕, seeing reviews like this always makes me (and other writers!) so happy 🥺😭💕💕💕!!

🙏Part 01❤️

My patient 95 years old with Dementia spoke to me about God all day and told me this when I get to her room. She served the Lord her whole life and continue to serve and worship God. It amazed me to see despite her state of dementia when she started talking about God she never get confused. Her mind is so straight clear with verse. She remembers her God Jesus-Christ fully no doubt and her children and grand children. God you are too much oooh

Let's go👉👉👉👉👉

That day i was so confused upset like all emotions was all over the place. I didn't tell her nothing absolutely nothing. At the moment i step in and say Mrs. .......praise the Lord as greetings to her. She

Just put few of the advices and she said hope it helps someone too. Thank you Lord🙏🙏🙏

Keep on and trust him. Ooh yesss you can do it and keep do it and said the blood of Jesus is against Satan and he will never make it and you thank God, praise God about how God is, and how he strength you and how He let's you feel him.

The battle is not yours let the Lord knows tell him you give to him and you are not taking back and you thank him for the victory.

Then she thanks God, praise God all day as i never see her do it since I am with her. She was so happy. She said keep your face . Do you know who is the face? i said JESUS and she said never doubt Him because he can do everything except one thing what is it??? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Fail me and take my will power. That's right😂😂😂

Thank you Lord because you are the beginning and the end. Love you Jesus.

He is in charge, he never failed you. Listen to him and follow what He told you and you will be successful and not a failer. 💪🏻💪🏻💪💪💪

When something is wrong just express yourself to God first then if it is need speak to the person who hurts you, do not keep it. ❤️❤️❤️❤️

🙏🙏🙏You don't like your job, the way they treat you go to Him and let him know even tough He knows about everything He still want to hear from you.

When you go against the will of God you are no more consider by him again but when you are doing his will and the ennemies tried to attack you no matter their number God will give you peace and he will never fail 🥰🥰🥰🥰 you know why???

🙌🙌🙌Because He is the Rock. 😍😍😍

🙏🙏🙏🙏Everyone who repent from their sins God forgive them or ask proper forgiveness from theirs mistakes we will have Heaven together Alleluia thank you Jesus. 😎😎😎

😳😳😳People who refuse Jesus forgiveness He will humiliate them with their sins, from their past to the present. 😳😳😳

Never never listen what the devil is told you even to do. 😍😍😍The reason behind is that he went you to died 😡😡😡with him.

😎😎😎😎Our eyes are no more blind just tell Satan no, no, no you are a liar I am with the living God.❤️❤️😉😉❤️❤️❤️💪💪💪🙏🙏👏👏
