Heartbreaker ⭑˚💔⭑ 𝑠𝑡𝑎𝑟𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑓𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝑠𝑐𝑟𝑎𝑡𝑐ℎ

bnha x f!reader

reverse harem, isekai, my hero academia x fem!reader, slowburn

You awaken one day with virtually no memories. The only thing guiding you is some strange system that likes to dictate your every move, and for some reason, it insists that you make certain people fall in love with you. Desperate for answers, you decide to go along with its demands. After all, how hard can it be?

previous | story masterlist | next

You didn't know what had happened to you, but you needed to get to the bottom of things—one way or another.  

[“𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐠𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠?”]

“To the police,” you gritted out. “I should have done this in the first place. Even though I’ve lost my memories, surely someone will be able to help me. Or at the very least, they can admit me to a hospital so that I can be examined by a doctor. You claim I have no family, but there must still be some sort of documentation for them to go off. I’m confused, and really scared, and I don’t know what the hell you’re on about, making people fall in love with me or whatever. I thought you could help me, but it doesn’t seem like you’re willing.”  

[“𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝𝐧’𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭.”] 

“No offense, but I’m done listening to you. All you’ve done is made me more confused. I need someone who will actually help.”  

You didn’t know where exactly the nearest police station was, but you figured you could find your way by asking around.  

Except you apparently weren’t permitted even that much.  

“Ugh!” 

Your head was hurting again, except easily ten times worse than before. It was so bad that you ended up crumpling to the ground in a fetal position, pressing your hands against the sides of your head and biting back tears.  

The system clearly wasn’t happy.  

[“𝐈 𝐬𝐚𝐢𝐝 𝐧𝐨. 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬𝐧’𝐭 𝐚 𝐬𝐨𝐥𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐦 𝐭𝐨 𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐧𝐝. 𝐍𝐨𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐫𝐞. 𝐈𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐨𝐟 𝐚 𝐡𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞. 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐡𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐢𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮? 𝐈𝐭’𝐥𝐥 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐨 𝐚 𝐧𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐠𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧; 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐧𝐨 𝐝𝐨𝐮𝐛𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐨 𝐢𝐬 𝐥𝐚𝐲 𝐥𝐨𝐰 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐤𝐬. 𝐘𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲. 𝐘𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐠𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐩𝐚𝐭𝐡. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐚𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐢𝐬 𝐛𝐲 𝐝𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐥𝐝. 𝐍𝐨 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐞𝐥𝐬𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮.”]

Fucking hell. You gritted your teeth and wiped at your damp eyes. This system really was a major pain in your ass. It expected you to do their bidding without even questioning anything. How could they even be sure that your memories would come back if you completed these so-called tasks? If anything, they were probably using your amnesia to their advantage. There was no guarantee that your memories would return even if you went along with their demands.  

“Please let me go,” you begged. “All I want is to remember. That’s all. I don’t want to be your puppet and make people fall for me or whatever else. Is that too much to ask?”  

There was a lengthy pause, and when you heard the next ping, the edges of the projection seemed to have turned a reddish color. The color of anger.  

[“𝐘𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐮𝐥𝐭. 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐞, 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧. 𝐈 𝐝𝐢𝐝𝐧’𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐭𝐨 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐞 𝐧𝐨 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐢𝐜𝐞. 𝐈 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐟𝐢𝐭 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐚 𝐛𝐢𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡.”]

Your face turned pale. “What? What does that mean? Hey! What are you trying to say—”  

Once again, your world was plunged into darkness.

You couldn’t tell if it had been minutes, hours, or days. When faced with a vast expense of nothing, your sense of time was understandably warped.

Just like before, you couldn’t move a muscle. All you could do was talk, and for a while you did exactly that—cried out into the darkness begging to be released, begging for the system to let you out. But you didn’t receive a response. They were deliberately ignoring you, and you guessed that placing you back here was meant to be some sort of punishment. 

A very cruel punishment, for that matter. 

You stopped struggling after realizing that it was futile. Tears rolled down your cheeks as you sobbed quietly, but no one came to help you. In here, you were completely and utterly alone.  

[“𝐒𝐨. 𝐇𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐝 𝐚 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐭?”]

The system was talking to you again. You blinked wearily, vision partly blurry from all the tears stinging your eyes. By now, it was undeniably clear that they weren’t an ally. They were your own personal tormentor. They could lock you up inside this endless void for as long as they wished; torture your mind for all of eternity, if they so desired.  

After two instances of this sensation, you decided that you never wanted to be trapped in here again. You’d already had enough. If cooperating with the system was the only way to avoid such a thing and possibly regain your memories, then it looked like you didn’t have much of a choice.  

“Alright,” you said weakly. “I’m just... tired. All I wanted was for things to make sense. But I’ll listen now. I promise I’ll listen, so please don’t lock me up in here again. It’s horrifying. Please.”

[“𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐝. 𝐈’𝐦 𝐠𝐥𝐚𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧. 𝐃𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐲. 𝐈 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐬𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐨 𝐝𝐨 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐜𝐫𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐨𝐫 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠. 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐤𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞 𝐬𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐬𝐭 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭, 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐬𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐛𝐞𝐟𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐫𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮. 𝐈𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐝𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭, 𝐈’𝐦 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐦𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐧, 𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐛𝐲 𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞. 𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐈 𝐰𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐤 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐮𝐩 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧.”]

They had already proven to be incredibly untrustworthy, so you didn’t want to put complete faith in their words, but it didn’t seem like there was any other option. You just hoped that as suspicious as they were, they weren’t also a liar.  

“Can I go back now? I want to get out of here. I can’t take it anymore.”  

[“𝐎𝐟 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞. 𝐈’𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐰. 𝐈 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤 𝐢𝐭’𝐬 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐨 𝐬𝐞𝐞 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐬 𝐥𝐢𝐤𝐞.”]

When you opened your eyes, you were back in the exact same place as before. It didn’t look like anything had changed since you’d left. Based on the sun and sky overhead, you doubted much time had passed either. Did time flow differently inside that isolated space when compared to the real world?

[“𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐡𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐬 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐝. 𝐈𝐭’𝐬 𝐛𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝. 𝐄𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐢𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞, 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚 𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐥𝐞 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐰𝐨 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐞��𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫.”]

Honestly, you weren’t sure whether or not to be relieved. On the plus side, it sounded like there were no consequences to being pulled into that strange void. Your real body wasn’t vulnerable in the process of doing so. But on the other hand, that meant there was no limit to how long the system could keep you there.

You really could be trapped for eternity, and the thought was so horrifying that it made your entire body tremble.  

Like before, a projection of a map appeared before your eyes.  

[“𝐓𝐢𝐦𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐠𝐨. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐛𝐞 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐲 𝐝𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐝, 𝐬𝐨 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐨𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐥𝐨𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐈’𝐯𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐩. 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠.”]

You definitely needed a proper break, not a time-out inside some lifeless prison. The thought of being able to sit back and kick your feet up was certainly appealing. It wouldn’t solve all of your problems, not by any means, but at least it was a start. 

After following the map for a little while, you arrived at your destination. Thankfully, it hadn’t taken very long to get there. You supposed the system had purposely brought you to an area near your home.  

You were standing in front of a house. It was on the smaller side, but then again, you were only one person, so you doubted you’d be in need of much space.  

“How do I, um... get in?” you asked.  

[“𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐚 𝐤𝐞𝐲 𝐢𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐩𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐞𝐭. 𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭.”]

What the... how long has that been in there?  

You decided not to sweat the small stuff, and as expected, the key was able to unlock the front door. After taking a few moments to collect yourself, you stepped inside.  

Well... it was certainly minimalist, that much was for sure.  

And by that you meant that there was literally no furniture. It looked like your dreams of sinking into a plush sofa were something unattainable. Goddammit. You had no memories, practically no autonomy, and now no furniture either. 

[“𝐖𝐞𝐥𝐥? 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐝𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤?”]

You decided not to risk upsetting them again and chuckled weakly.  

“It’s nice,” you lied. 

[“𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤. 𝐘𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐰𝐡𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞. 𝐁𝐮���� 𝐝𝐨𝐧’𝐭 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐫𝐲. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐟𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞. 𝐈’𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐨𝐰.”]

“Uh, what?” you gaped.  

[“𝐈 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐯𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐮𝐬𝐞. 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐚 𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐚𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐧𝐨𝐰, 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐨 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐢𝐭. 𝐉𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐧𝐨𝐰.”]

Right on cue, a new projection popped up. It was an image of a wooden chair with what appeared to be a cushion seat. You furrowed your brows, wondering what you were meant to do with this information.  

[𝐂𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐭 𝐒𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞 𝐖𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐢𝐫 + 𝐂𝐮𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐞𝐚𝐭?]

>> [𝐘𝐄𝐒]

The second you tapped on “yes”, something bright flashed in front of you. You let out a little squeal and shielded your eyes. When you reopened them, the chair from the image had somehow appeared, as if by magic.  

Stunned, you gently tapped on the chair, just to make sure that it was real. It was solid to the touch, so no doubt about it.  

You’d just created that thing out of thin air.  

“That’s so cool!” you gushed, but unfortunately, your excitement didn’t last long. All of a sudden, you felt drained beyond belief. If you were a battery, then you’d just about completely depleted your charge. Your exhaustion was so heavy it felt like you’d been hit by a truck.  

Thankfully, you now had a chair to collapse onto.  

“Ugh,” you groaned. “I’m so... tired. I-Is this normal? Did I do something wrong with my crafting?”  

[“𝐍𝐨. 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐚𝐛𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭. 𝐈 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐬𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐝𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐟𝐮𝐧𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐚𝐯𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐮𝐬𝐞, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐢𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐝𝐞𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐥𝐲 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐰𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦.

You supposed that it was still nice to have an ability like this. Since people apparently had all sorts of powers called Quirks, you were glad to have a power of your own. If only the system wasn’t such an asshole at times.  

“Can I make food too?” you asked hopefully. 

[“𝐔𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐥𝐲, 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐧 𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐞 𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐜 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝. 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐟𝐨𝐨𝐝, 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐦𝐚𝐥𝐬, 𝐞𝐭𝐜.”]

Figures. That would have been a bit too over-powered.  

[“𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧, 𝐡𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫, 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐲. 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐡𝐨𝐰 𝐈 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐠𝐞 𝐝𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐮𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐬𝐞 𝐚 𝐡𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐢𝐧. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐈 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐝𝐨 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮, 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡.

You blinked. “Creating money? Like... counterfeit bills? But that’s... illegal. I shouldn’t be doing something like that.” 

[“𝐖𝐞𝐥𝐥, 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐟𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐥𝐝. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧’𝐭 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐚 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭-𝐩𝐚𝐲𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐣𝐨𝐛, 𝐥𝐞𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐨𝐰𝐧. 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐨𝐧𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐚𝐲.

The pit in your stomach told you that you weren’t the sort of person to relish this choice of behavior. But you supposed that so long as you were only using enough to live... it was okay. You didn’t know anything about what your life had been like up until now, after all. And defying the system didn’t seem to be an option, otherwise they would put you through hell again.  

It was the only way. That was what you told yourself to avoid feeling like an awful person.  

You slumped back in the chair and let out a heavy sigh. God. There was so much to think about. So much that you didn’t know. Not only were you physically exhausted after using the system’s powers, but you were mentally exhausted too.  

The system seemed to realize as much. 

[“𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐭𝐫𝐲 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐬𝐥𝐞𝐞𝐩. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞’𝐬 𝐧𝐨 𝐛𝐞𝐝 𝐲𝐞𝐭, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐚 𝐟𝐮𝐭𝐨𝐧 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐜𝐨𝐫𝐧𝐞𝐫. 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐧𝐚𝐩. 𝐈𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮’𝐫𝐞 𝐟𝐞𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐮𝐧𝐠𝐫𝐲 𝐨𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐰𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐮𝐩, 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐞𝐫 𝐬𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐨𝐝.

You nodded weakly. Sleep was good. You were really craving sleep. Maybe a bit of sleep was just what you needed. Maybe you’d wake up with your memories fully intact. It sounded like a stretch, but it wasn’t entirely impossible. Given everything that had happened with the system so far, you could confidently say that much.  

You barely managed to unfold the futon before you were out like a light.

As it turned out, you were so tired that you ended up sleeping all the way until the next morning. And this time, when you woke up, there was a new message there to greet you.  

[𝐃𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐘 𝐓𝐀𝐒𝐊: 𝐑𝐮𝐧 𝟓 𝐤𝐢𝐥𝐨𝐦𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬.]

“What the hell?” you muttered. “I have daily tasks too?”  

[“𝐘𝐞𝐬. 𝐎𝐧 𝐭𝐨𝐩 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠-𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐦 𝐠𝐨𝐚𝐥𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫, 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐲 𝐭𝐚𝐬𝐤𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐡𝐞𝐥𝐩 𝐤𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐟𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲. 𝐈 𝐚𝐦 𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐮𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐰𝐚��𝐝𝐬 𝐛𝐚𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐨𝐧 𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧.

You supposed going on a run certainly wasn’t the end of the world. Since you had amnesia, it was probably important to maintain your health and fitness. The last thing you needed was to develop other medical complications as well.  

“I’m hungry,” you groaned. “You said I had a wallet somewhere, right? Can I please have it? I’ll go for a run and then buy something to eat afterwards.”

[“𝐒𝐮𝐫𝐞. 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐜𝐚𝐧 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐭𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲. 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐞𝐰 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐡𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐧𝐨𝐰.”]

[𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝐢𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲?]

>> [𝐘𝐄𝐒]

They were right that you didn’t have much else apart from the wallet. The only other thing was what looked like... a hospital wristband?  

“I want the wallet,” you said. “And I’d like to take a look at the wristband as well.”  

At your words, both items appeared in your hands. The wallet was, well, literally just a wallet, but the wristband intrigued you for some reason. You lifted it up to get a better look at it, and oddly enough, the writing on it appeared to be faded. You couldn’t tell what it was supposed to say.  

Why do I have this?  

You tried asking the system the same question, but they said they didn’t know. They could have been lying, or they could have been telling the truth. It was hard to tell. 

You felt that this wristband was important, though. For reasons you couldn’t put into words.  

“I’ll put the hospital wristband back for now.”  

Just like that, it disappeared from your grip and reappeared back in the inventory screen you had open. Your head was hurting again, although you were starting to get used to the pain. It would probably be a recurring trend.  

You stashed your wallet in your pocket and let out a sigh. “Alright. I guess it’s time to go for a run, and then I can finally get some food.”

Despite the fact that you knew almost nothing about yourself, it seemed like your body’s physical state was fine, for the most part. Running didn’t cause you any excess pain or otherwise indicate that you had any injuries. 

You didn’t feel like you were incredibly athletic, though. If you had to fathom a guess, you were fairly average. But it wasn’t like you were trying to win any awards or anything. Being average was just fine by you. What you cared about was regaining your memories. Running 5 kilometers was a small price to pay if it would eventually get you closer to your goal. You could probably finish that distance in about thirty minutes.  

Or so you’d thought.  

You ended up slowing to a stop, but only because you’d caught sight of a familiar face. There he was again. Bakugou Katsuki. The same guy you’d spoken to yesterday, and based on what the system kept saying, someone you needed to get close to.  

Except this time, he wasn’t alone. There was another boy with him—one that had curly hair, big green eyes, and freckled cheeks.  

For some reason, he also looked familiar. You winced, a palm instinctively clutching your head, which was throbbing once again.

Oddly enough, the system wasn’t saying anything. Didn’t they want you to approach Katsuki again? That was one of your tasks, wasn’t it?  

Maybe they were just waiting to see if you’d be proactive on your own. Maybe this was a test. And if you didn’t make the right choice... 

You shuddered when you remembered being trapped in that god-forsaken void.  

No way in hell am I going back there.  

With apprehension fueling your actions, you changed your direction and headed for the two boys instead. They were talking. Well, not really talking, actually. Arguing was probably more accurate. And if you were being even more precise, only one of them was actively saying things. The other was shrinking away out of what you could only assume was fear. 

Katsuki was harassing the other boy. You watched as he grabbed onto his victim's shirt and pulled him closer, steam rising from the point where his palm had connected with fabric.

You weren’t sure why exactly, but something told you that you had to intervene. If you didn’t, the freckled boy was going to get hurt.

The thought of him getting hurt made your chest ache for some reason.  

“Stop it!” you cried out, pushing Katsuki away from the other boy without even thinking it through. You realized your mistake quickly enough.

Shit. You were supposed to get closer to him, not make him hate you even more! 

At first, Katsuki’s eyes widened from shock, but it didn’t take long for them to narrow. He was glaring at you the same way he had yesterday, when you’d introduced yourself for the first time.  

Actually, scratch that. He was easily angrier right now. 

“You again, stupid bitch?” he grimaced. “What the hell? Are you stalking me now or what? Who the hell gave you the right to touch me?”

STATUS UPDATE:  

[Bakugou Katsuki thinks you are incredibly annoying.] 

[-10 love points.] 

𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐒 𝐔𝐏𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄:

[-𝟏𝟎 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐬.]

Fuck! I shouldn’t have cut in! So much for being a good person.  

“I-It’s not good to pick fights with people,” was all you could think to say. Honestly, though, you would’ve been better off not saying a word. Katsuki kept on reaching new heights of anger—ones that you hadn’t even thought were possible.  

“Don’t you dare tell me what to do,” he gritted out, then shoved you back so hard that you tripped and fell onto your butt.  

[𝐁𝐚𝐤𝐮𝐠𝐨𝐮 𝐊𝐚𝐭𝐬𝐮𝐤𝐢 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐩 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮.]

[-𝟏𝟎 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐬.]

Noo! They keep decreasing! 

“If you ever show your face to me again, you’re going to regret it,” he warned.  

On that note, he stormed away just like last time. You heard one final ping before another projection popped up. 

[𝐁𝐚𝐤𝐮𝐠𝐨𝐮 𝐊𝐚𝐭𝐬𝐮𝐤𝐢 𝐢𝐬 𝐜𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐥𝐨𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐲𝐨𝐮.]

[-𝟏𝟎 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐬.]

[𝐂𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬: -𝟒𝟎/𝟏𝟎𝟎]

Devastated, you just stayed sitting on the ground. You weren’t sure how you’d managed to fuck things up so badly. Clearly, you’d underestimated just how easy it was to piss Katsuki off.

Just as it seemed like the day was off to an awful start, a timid voice cut through the silence.  

“T-Thank you.” It was the boy that Katsuki had been about to hit. You’d managed to keep him from getting hurt, at least. That was better than nothing. 

The system isn’t going to be happy, though. I might actually snap if they put me back in that dark place again... 

“That was really brave of you,” the boy continued. He was blushing a bit while speaking. Perhaps he was naturally shy? “Helping a total stranger like that, I mean. I-If you don’t mind me asking, what’s your name?”  

Surprisingly, you heard another ping.  

𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐒 𝐔𝐏𝐃𝐀𝐓𝐄:

[𝐌𝐢𝐝𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐲𝐚 𝐈𝐳𝐮𝐤𝐮 𝐥𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐬 𝐮𝐩 𝐭𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮.]

[+𝟑𝟎 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐬.]

[𝐂𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐠𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬: 𝟑𝟎/𝟏𝟎𝟎]

Huh. 

Well, then. You thought that you’d made a total mess of things, but in the process of pissing off one of your targets, you’d made a good impression on the other.

It was funny how things worked out.  

You managed a smile and slowly stood up. “I’m [Name]. And you?”

The erasure of Aphrodite's actual kids in mythology for Rachel's OCs is worse when you notice they're all queer themselves:

Eros - Already a given as to why he'd be a queer figure

Anteros - God of Requited Love. In the more popular versions of his birth he's the son of Poseidon ans Nerites, another man. The god of the most happy form of love is from two queer dads!

Himeros - God of Sex, and specifically is considered a patron to Male/Male romantic and sexual relationships

Pothos - God of Longing and Yearning, and to many can be seen as a queer figure who represents the struggle of queer identities and feelings in a cishetero society

Hedylogos - God of Sweet-talk and Flattery, easily can be made into a bi/pansexual figure to represent queer joy

Hymenaus - God of Marriages and Song who actually crossdresses in mythology to save women in danger.

Hermaphroditus - God of Androgyny, who in the greek version of their birth was always neither male or female, but a mixture of both. They're a symbol of intersex people and being outside the gender binary.

So, Rachel had a whole BTS's worth of queer figures to include in her story, especially in a romance story, and yet removed all of them except one to make a gay best friend. The queer erasure has been there since day one and is worse the longer you look into it!

You're so right though, I feel like it would have made sense to not include them just for the sake of avoiding cast bloat, but instead she just swapped them out for a whole other cast of fake kids, and it's really telling when the OG kids were queer. Now we have... Mania.

(idc what anyone says, i'm genuinely disturbed by this child, it's funny but also it's not, why does the baby have eyEBROWS-)

Pour one out for the real kids of Aphrodite, they all deserve better 😔💔

California 🎃 💔 ☠️

🎃 Halloween costume:

His usual clothes except his shirt is

💔 Breakups

•California is neurodiverse with high rejection sensitivity

When dumped:

•Even if the relationship was short (3 days or less) he'll still mourn it weeks after both due to inexperience, rushing into relationships and valuing gestures more than stability.

• Cali in his first relationship he didn't actually care who his partner was, he was just excited to woo them with Hollywood gestures (fancy restaurants, jewelry and personal gifts, romantic getaways). His partner loved this at first but slowly became more exhausted and requested staying in instead of going through another of Cali's carefully thought out date nights. California misunderstood this entirely.

Freaking out that his partner had gotten bored of him (or saw him as unattractive), Cali began increasing the big romantic gestures with the assumption they'd get their happily ever after. His partner actually felt smothered with the final straw being when Cali suddenly suggested they move in with him without actually asking his partner if that's what they wanted.

Cali didn't give up and still tried to impress his now ex with extravagant gifts and public declarations of love which only gave his partner second hand embarrassment. Cali stopped after his ex got a new boyfriend. After months of silence Cali began working on his perception of relationships and decreased the quantity of gestures in future relationships, but this didn't fix his main issue of comparing real life to Hollywood and not getting to know his partners first.

•This leads to his partners usually ghosting him when he gets too clingy.

•His worst relationship according to the other states was this guy who clearly didn't like Cali and used him for clout and the gifts. They were completely obnoxious and demanding to the point even Florida wad concerned but Cali kept insisting he was fine. The turning point was when the states found out he was deleting birthday messages on California's phone without him knowing to make it look like only they remembered California's birthday. They confronted Cali who didn't believe them, thinking the other states were playing a cruel joke on him and were trying to stomp on anything that makes Cali happy.

The states had a vote to determine how to split them up. Eventually, asking Gov to look into this guy's past and blackmail them. Gov was reluctant at first but during a night at the statehouse he saw just how miserable and paranoid California had become.

To California's knowledge, that guy was just one of many partners who ghosted him... To the states it's both the cruelest and kindest thing they've ever done to Cali.

California never questioned why the States were so kind to him after that breakup.

When dumping his partners:

•He prides himself that he's never broken up with anyone- as most of the states pointed out it's not a good thing given his terrible standards.

☠️ Random hc (tw eating disorders)

•California preaches veganism and healthy eating, however he secretly binge eats when states aren't looking. This is followed by an extreme amount of guilt and purging.

•This also coincides with his break ups as he assumes that all his partners eventually get bored of him and subsequently thinks he needs to be skinnier to make up for it. This is also what made Gov change his mind on the State's breakup plan.

•Florida was the first person to discover this. When he was staying with Cali, Florida would go to the kitchen for a midnight snack. He kept finding Cali eating from a secret stash of junk food and (not fully understanding the severity of the situation) Florida teases Cali for being a hypocrite. This made California feel worse and he stopped eating for the remainder of Florida's stay, throwing away any of the junk food he kept.

Florida realised on the last day when he saw Cali with thin hair, desperately chewing a candy wrapper, unable to fully move from exhaustion.

Not knowing how to properly help the situation Florida brought Cali a gift basket to share of all Florida's favourite foods as a "thank you" for letting him stay over and promised Cali he wouldn't tell the other states about his "cheat day" mistaking Cali's eating disorders for a break in a diet. Florida genuinely thought this helped, unknown to him most of that food was vomitted the moment he left.

•Florida didn't keep his mouth shut for long and one night made fun of Cali to Loui about California being a hypocrite. Loui was more concerned and ended up checking in on Cali. When his suspicions were confirmed he told some of the other states who staged an intervention.

•California is currently going through recovery but has shown signs of relapse but this time the states are aware of his symptoms.

Hiiiiiii!! I inspired myself with the stabbing bit from the last ficlet: imagine Santino getting investigated and/or punished by the High Table. Poor baby would be so stressed! Do you think that has ever happened to him? What might he get reprimanded for and how would he react? Do you think John's there to defend him, or maybe it's after he performs the impossible task for John and he has to deal with the consequences all alone... 😔

HIIII :3

Thank you so much for the ask as always YAAAY! AAHH yes that ficlet was really inspiring AND ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS 💖

That's a really delicious ask very yummy >:3

Aaawww poor baby can't catch a break (from us LMAOO, that stabbing part too in the ficlet 💔)

He would be VERY STRESSED OUT

He probably broke a very dumb rule, or "unwritten rule" or he himself got a bit too greedy for something, and they just decided to punish him for that. Or he just crossed paths with a wrong person who holds grudges against him. In the High Table world, I think if you just look at one of them wrong, they call a hit on you.

And knowing how Santino can be bitchy, even if maybe doesn't necessarily mean it in a bad way, someone will take that the wrong way. You really have to get to know Santino before making a judgment 😭

Also, one of his bodyguards could've simply just killed someone who tried to attack him, and it turns out it was someone "important" so now he faces the consequences. And it was self defense :(

Another idea, he got scammed. I mean scammed in a way of him making some kind of a deal with a WRONG person, someone who later on tricks him, uses him to get something and manipulates the whole situation. Probably when he didn't have much experience in his role, when he was just staring to get into all this (so he was very young and naive). Although, it can still happen. Hight Table members and whoever is around it can be good liars.

But it could also be his own fault... because sometimes he thinks too much with his own feelings and ignores the possible consequences. If he's extremely pissed off, he feels anger, and that's the only thing he feels and wants to express. So he isn't really thinking the way he should which results with him making bad decisions that to HIM seems right, but to someone else (for example to John who is with him during his rage), it's not a good decision. So, really, during that, he needs to have someone (John) with him during that.

But in every scenario... HE IS PISSED OFF, but also feels lots of self-hatred and... hatred towards everyone else, except John. But yeah, he does snap at him, but he feels bad when he comes back to his senses :<

Especially... if they hurt him as a punishment for breaking the rules. He is angry, he is sad, he is just so overwhelmed with everything and it can be too much. He wants to punish himself even more. But that ends up with him breaking down into crying. They just hit his weak spots with that 😞

John NEEDS to be there for him, he needs to protect him because because how DARE THEY HURT HIM?? Absolutely not, John is not having that. You can't just punish Santino and expect to go without facing John's consequences. And this time Santino is the one saying "But they'll kill you if you do that. I know you want to protect me but you'll break even worse rules. I want you to be with me, that's all, just be here with me." Please just keep each other safe you sillies 😞🙏

Oooh but that idea after the impossible task!! Let me write abt that too ehehe!

After he helps him and has to deal with it ALL ALONE 😭💔 and he is facing those consequences because of helping John. Because he actually cares for him, he doesn't want to interrupt John's "free" life. But he still ends up hurts, he still has to deal with it all alone and just think about how John would comfort him and probably protect him.

AGHH, just thinking about Santino having to go through it ALL ALONE and imagining that John is there with him 😭💔

Basically... Santino can't catch a break, everyone just uses him and make him break rules or whatever so he is the one that ends up hurt 😞 but John is there for him, he has to be 🖤💙

Saturn square Ascendant in Synastry (A Cautionary Tale) 💔

Saturn square Ascendant aspect in synastry is the restriction of self expression from the the Saturn person, Saturn person wanting to change or control the persona or actions of the Ascendant.  I had this aspect with someone in the past. He was Saturn and was super critical of my looks, and how I presented myself, because the Ascendant is how we present ourselves, how we carry ourselves and has to do with our appearance. He would suggest how I should wear my makeup, my hair and even at one point suggested cosmetic surgery. This aspect can be extremely damaging to the self esteem of the Ascendant person if they already have their own issues with their appearance, or lack confidence and do not have a strong sense of self. I consider this aspect a "heartbreaking" aspect because it is a "square" and as I have explained in previous post, "how to deal with squares in synastry" squares are uphill battles and cause constant friction as well as unrest in a connection. Saturn is the planet of restriction, discipline, lessons, hard work, commitment and contracts. And when you have this planet squaring someone's Ascendant which is their identity and presentation, this means that a person will be constantly defending the right to be themselves authentically and unapologetically in a connection. This aspect is extremely toxic and karmic. Regardless of the sign and house placement, this is one for the books. The heartbreaking part is that the Ascendant person may actually start to make the changes in how they act and look to appease the Saturn person and win their approval, only to face another needed upgrade or modification by Saturn. It will never be enough there will always be something wrong or something that the Ascendant needs to fix, work on or improve. The Saturn person is merely projecting, the truth is that inside they are insecure, intimidated and do not feel good enough for the Ascendant person. They may be secretly jealous of how outgoing, confident or admired the Ascendant person is, and wish that they themselves possessed these qualities. Instead of supporting the Ascendant they instead choose to nitpick at them, point out flaws and be hyper critical to take them down a notch or knock them off their pedestal, they feel like if they point out their flaws, this will cause insecurity and keep the Ascendant in the connection and also keep the Ascendant under control. This is the ultimate hater, sleeping with the enemy aspect. This aspect is very similar to Saturn square North Node, except it is worse because with North Node they are critical of your life path and with this aspect they are critical of YOU. If Saturn is in Capricorn, Virgo or Scorpio this is going to be exceptionally hard. Because Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, Virgo in Saturn is a hypercritical perfectionist, and Scorpio in Saturn is toxic and unapologetic. When the Saturn person does not get their way or the Ascendant finally decides they have had a enough and stands on business. Saturn will punish the Ascendant by stonewalling, giving silent treatment, blocking or refusing to support them. Especially if they are married or the Ascendant is financially dependent on them. The lesson in this aspect for the Ascendant, be true to yourself and honor your authenticity. You should not have to change who you are for someone to accept and love you. Love and acceptance does not come with conditions. The only person you need to be good enough for is yourself. Do not let anyone have control over your personal autonomy. Saturn cannot love and accept you for who you are, because Saturn does not love and accept themselves. The lesson for Saturn, people are not projects, you cannot control anyone, lighten up, stop projecting your insecurities onto others and deal with your issues, you are avoiding inner work (shadow work) by finding fault in other people. ....(To be continued)

Stay Lifted,

Madison

IDK WHAT'S A SMISKI OR WHAT SERIES IR HAVE

[lemonhemlock]

It's Weird how every and each male character in the show has been made much worse than their book counterparts . Viserys who was by all the accounts good to Alicent , has become a Pedophile, rapist and an abusive husband and father. Even the likes of daemon and larys are much worse than their book versions lol. Literally all of the males characters are worse ... except Aemond ... hmm I wonder what the reason for it ... when Aemond objectively and by all the accounts is one of the cruelest , most ruthless, misogynistic characters out there dude was maegor in the making , so what Ryan saw in him to wet his pants like this over him? Is it because Aemond got a sapphire eye and ride Vhaegar who was the largest dragon at the time , so probably Ryan thought Aemond is not that bad and misunderstood because he got a kool eye? I mean you can't be bad if you are kool. So if Ryan will adapt the sons of the dragon, I'm certain he will get it wet for Maegor since he was hot , has baelerion the black dread (the biggest, strongest and greatest dragon that the targ has ever had) he wielded Dark sister + blackfyre . And a dude who is a sexy , hot, an absolute badass and kool can't be that bad you know

he will make Maegor poor sad boi that couldn't have his dragon ,he will make Aenys the big bad bro who is an absolute monster , that will team up with his wife to bully poor sad Maegor . also he will make Aenys or probably Aegon i abuse maegor sexually to explain why Maegor is so fucked up and to explain why he can't have a boner to fuck all of these women so he can have a child of his own . Honorable Maegor tried to bring peace to westros and make it a better place by the power of love and friendship , but those filthy religious fanatics and unwashed peasants misunderstood his intentions and rose against him💔 Maegor in truth wanted to give his nephew Aegon a hug but Balerion the prick got overwhelmed by his dorne ptsd and killed Aegon and his thug dragon while Maegor was screaming for balerion to stop. Ryan actually know the real history of Asoiaf while the Evil Maesters lied to us💔. In the real history Maegor was actually called Maegor the kind not the cruel but All of those cringe Septons and Maesters conspired against him💔 maegor was in truth one of the most tragic , misunderstood, and kindest figures 🥺

#justiceformaegorthekind

Dear anon, I obviously have no idea where Ryan Condal stands on Maegor and if he believes he can be "redeemed" or made sympathetic to the audience, so that part of the ask is pure speculation, unfortunately.

As to the first part, I'm going to have to disagree with you again. Almost every character has been made more sympathetic in the show than their text counterpart, except Aegon (I've complained about this at length already). Viserys is a prime example. He has a better relationship with Helaena and his grandchildren in the books, but he is not better, lol. He is still very much a pedophile, as you say. He marries Aemma when she is 11 years old and consummates when she is 13 - in fact, it is implied that her young age is the reason why she had so many difficult pregnancies and eventually died from complications, because her body hadn't fully developed. It is also implied he had an affair with Alicent (another teenager) while Aemma was still alive.

Likewise, Daemon is very much worse in the text. Implied murders of Laenor and Harwin, tries to steal Rhea's inheritance, teaches young Rhaenyra oral sex, takes Alicent's maidenhead, kills the son of the Sea Lord of Braavos for Laena's hand, fucks only lily-white Valyrian-looking women (Laena & Mysaria are canonically as white as snow + blonde), likes to find the youngest possible prostitutes to sleep with.... Yes, some of these actions are relayed at rumour-level, but out of all the possible crimes they could have pinned on Daemon, he got off easy in the show.

I have no idea why they decided to make Aegon the problem child out of him and Aemond, but I'd be lying if I said that I would trade show!Aemond for a better-characterized Aegon. I really like what they did to Aemond and he deserves to be fleshed out as anyone else. If you really think about his origin story, what they did in the show makes a lot of sense and represents some logical build-up. Also, in the text, Alicent & Aegon seem to love him, so there must have been more to him other than burning the Riverlands and MILF pussy. I just wish they would have put as much thought into, you know, the freaking King of Westeros.

🗣️🔥🤺🔮🗝️❤️💔 for the WotR asks?

👀👀👀 Thanks for asking! :D Though I'm sure you can guess some answers already with how much I've been rambeling on discord. xD

Ask is here.

🗣: oc’s temperament (sarcastic, violent, honest, etc.)

Artie is generally pretty straightforward. She doesn't like intrigues or deception and prefers to talk about things like adults. She is kind and understanding, but she is still very much a paladin. Crimes need to be atoned for, but would people please stop suggesting execution for everything! She has a self-sacrificing habit that is frankly bordering on unhealthy and everything that's going down isn't very helpful for that. While her duty to both a cause and other people is immensly important to her, she does have a sense of humor, and will play along Daeran's jokes as long as they don't people in actual danger. For that matter, she loves Daeran very much and that act 5 quest broke her right through.

🔥: least favourite companion? why?

Since I kinda killed Wenduag and so don't have very many opinions her except the monsterfuckers deserved a bit better with the design, I guess I'll have to go for Camellia. The longer the game went the more she seemed like a very insensitive depiction of mental illness. And the way she is treated by certain parts of the fandom makes it worse.

🤺: opinions on crusade mode?

Much better than in Kingmaker! I do wish they hadn't made all the relic decrees for diplomacy though, that fucks up the balance a bit. Also good on them for putting in a story mode difficulty when players asked for it, makes the whole thing much mor enjoyable. I would appreciate it if they had a half mode where you can do decrees but not bother with the armies, but I'll survive.

🔮: oc’s opinions on magic and the gods?

Magic is a tool like any other Artie. Were it comes from doesn't really matter most of the time, and when it matters it's not really about the magic but about the source being objectively evil. Like beheading people and making the recipient live in constant fear evil. Gods are another matter. Artie is a paladin to Iomedae and was taught fairly traditionally at a local temple from when she was about a preteen. Gods are there for a reason and are to be respected. Iomedae's rejection hurt a lot. I am in fact working on a piece right now to fill in why she stayed on angel anyway.

🗝: what’s one tip you’d give to a new player?

While Toy Box is less necessary for Wrath of the Righteous than Bag of Many Tricks is for Kingmaker, I would reccomend getting it, especially if you're just in it for the story. There are certain parts that are just very annoying. (Nenio's last quest. I love Nenio, I even like the general quest itself, but they kinda fucked up the balancing on that one.) It also has some quality of life options that are nice, like highlighting copyable scrolls. And also, if you fucked up the preperation for a quest, chances are Toy Box can help you fix it without having to redo hours of progress. I highly reccomend it.

Also, do not feel bad for rejecting companions you don't want to romance. It will happen. You think you'll have avoided all the romance triggers, but you didn't. Certain characters are very desperate for love and it kinda shows. This is not a complaint from me, it's just fact.

❤️: any npcs you liked, or even wished you could romance?

Well as my discord friends are sure to be aware because we all bullied each other into loving him, The Hand of the Inheritor is my absolute favourite NPC, I love him so much. He's such a himbo too. The angel path probably helped my obsession because there's just more of him. He's also less of an asshole in act 4 and you actually get to see more of his own desperate confusion. Not that I think the other paths are worse, it's just different if he spent the last time sulking with you before being kidnapped or if he called you evil and then got tortured for 6 months before you almost save him and then he gets tortured some more. I'm not sure I want a romance? I mean I definitely wouldn't complain about getting one, so if Owlcat has something planned...👀 But I'd also be happy with just more content in general.

Also give me more of Lariel! The Hand hyped him so much and then he's just there without any reaction. Especially on angel that is very disappointing, no idea if you get him on other paths at all. But give me a big angel brother damnit!

💔: any hated npcs?

I mean Hulrun is a piece of shit, but I recognize he is intented as such, so it's more a 'haha isn't he terrible' situation. Anyone I actually hate... hm. I don't really think so. I'm kinda sad about how they dropped some of them, but if there was one that really pissed me off it didn't have enough impact for me to remember it.

State of the Me

I'mma just cut this here.

I was supposed to take Suzie to the vet but I think I tore my rotator cuff (because I deserve it, the universe hates me, idk) and I hurt so I asked to switch with mom. She was supposed to be waiting for the installers to come measure for the extra cabinets we're having put in. Except apparently there was never a confirmation call. I have 20 minutes until their window is over and I'm going to take a nap then.

The other day, I was arguing with some lady on Twitter about that dumb Italian restaurant with the plaster cast of the chef's mouth, etc. The lady just happened to be black, which means nothing in this context except she didn't actually read the article we were arguing about, didn't know the restaurant was named Bros', and took offense when I said the name, thinking I was making some kind of racist pejorative comment. I pointed out that it was just the restaurant's name and she said, "Oh, my bad, I'm still in bed this morning, but you still have no taste." Like...I can't honestly get upset at her jumping to conclusions because Twitter is a cesspool of racism and human trash but what I CAN take issue with is a) EXCUSE ME YOU ARE DEFENDING A RESTAURANT THAT MAKES YOU TONGUE FUCK THE CHEF'S MOUTH DON'T TALK TO ME ABOUT TASTE and b) at least read the fucking article enough to know what the restaurant is called. Come on.

I haven't checked my email in a month. It's a symptom of escalating depression but I don't know what else we can do. I don't want to change my meds. The last time we added some, I got WORSE, so. I'm just...uh...not...doing anything?

It is WAY too easy to distract my therapist by putting on my happy baby voice and talking about Pumpkin. This is the danger of therapy over the phone, I can obfuscate. Idk why I do it.

Christmas is this weekend, I am told. I refuse to look at a calendar. Time has ceased making sense. How the fuck is Christmas here already? I don't have presents. I never made cookies. I don't have anything for dinner, yet. I'm supposed to make a cake but also uuuuugh.

I accidentally let Masterclass renew (this is why we check our fucking email, Leslie) and it was guaranteed on mom's credit card. Fuck. She said I can just leave it and it'll be part of my Christmas but that's...a lot of money. I feel really bad.

I got really pretty handmade candy canes to put on my tree and for snackies. They're so gross. They taste like the oil they use on hard candies to keep them from sticking to the extruder. There's no peppermint there. God is dead.

I promise I'm trying to come up with good stuff but it's really difficult right now.

December started well but I just can't feel Christmas anymore.

I've been watching Wheel of Time, that's good, and I watched the first two episodes of Witcher season 2 yesterday. Thank God for the costuming department understanding Henry Cavill looks excellent in high waisted pants.

Unpopular opinion: Batman Returns is a Christmas film.

Maybe I'll take some detailed shots of my new ornaments. I have a manta ray and a little Suzie. There was another one, I forget what it was, but when checking out, the lady noticed it was broken. 💔

I want Christmas dinner too be king crab legs and shrimp cocktail and lobster tails and sashimi. I'd settle for the first two. But I live outside a small town in the mountains and idk if we can swing king crab legs. Guess we'll find out.

😂😂😂 I'm such a spoiled brat. For those of you who are new, I'm jobless, sick, and have zero funds of my own. Whenever I talk about expensive things like crab legs and Masterclass and shit, that's my mom or gifts from friends. I, myself, have no intrinsic financial value.

I'm writing again. Sort of. Not really. I managed a few bits on one fic, one chapter on another. An outline and a half. Nothing for my own stuff but something > nothing, right?

I'm gonna take that nap now. Goodnight and good luck.
