FHJY Spoilers || my live thoughts as I watch episode 3

Had a rough week so far, I am looking forward to this episode ♡

HIIIIII INTREPID HEROES

NAT 20

please bring ayda back this episode (begging) (I know it won't happen. but I'm desperate)

ZELDA AND GORGUG BREAK UP CONFIRMED.....

I am experiencing so much gender envy from literally everyone at the table.

The art team really pulled out all the stops for this season. The dome backdrop is so good

THIRTY INVESTIGATION?!!!??!

"Of course you and Adaine, of course, are... Nerds."

"Not ideal for the bad kids" oh no.

Lone Wolf Bloodrush player. That's oc material fr

"I like getting friends cast on me so I willingly fail" fig becomes more and more relatable every episode

"IT'S 10 AND I GIVE YOU THE HELP ACTION"

LYDIA!!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥

LYDIA MADE THEM LUNCH 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

THE EMO SONG 😭😭😭

It just says "Hey Adaine" on the inside 😭😭

Cloaca.....

how many binders do the Thistlesprings have

"Can I Run From You?"

Just Breathe

CHLOE SHORT FOR CLOACA

I love the casual conversation they have

TWO GLASSES OF MILK

"I'll walk you to Bard class" fig probably won't be staying 😭

NEW LUNCH LAD!!!!!

I hope Fig's luck issue gets resolved soon 😭

MAZEY IS SO PRETTY

Grix...??

THE PARROTS.....

omg mazey x fabian?!!?!?!????!?!?!!?!

A SECRET CLOACA WITH A GUN??

Jawbone is so filled with dad lore

Kristen class president is something I need

21 passive investigation is insane

"What are you, like 4 different dogs?"

Passive Aggressive Kristen is so good.

Ghost steaks 🔥

FABIAN FLIRTING

"You're looking at a party boy" oh fabian....

I think Kristen working to be class president will convince her to. Go to school and work on getting better at it

Gilear 😢 I miss my pathetic wet cat of a man

fig writer's block so relatable

Stressed Riz

WANDA CHILDA

HEYYYYYY GIRLIE

I miss Ayda

Porter is kinda.... ♡

Why is everyone so attractive why must I be attracted to all the adults. im supposed to have a type

"I'm going into a worry, yeah"

Fig taking Fabian to the wizard class instead of bard class is so real

Dance bard class is so cool

From Jock to Arsty kid, I love Fabian's character development so much

oh god Wanda Childa....

"what smell would be enticing to emo kids" 😭😭😭

"Did you just come from a room full of cigarettes and peach schnapps" "you mean breakfast?"

I wanda'd in

NOT ALL WHO WANDA ARE LOST

SITTING OUTSIDE AND LISTENING TO BARD CLASS

watching Kristen deal with school and stuff and deal with Cassandra makes me slightly uncomfortable. not in a bad way but in a way that I relate to it a bit too much and it's a bit too real. i too had extreme trouble with school and I also have issues with pushing important people away when trying to focus on myself and it ruins a lot of my relations. I relate to Kristen too much in the worst ways and that hits closer to home than I like. I love Kristen but man. Too close

"Things can be bad, and things can be good, but they all can be true."

I worry about Kristen going to Cassandra's realm. I am going into a worry. I have bad feeling.

the sound design is so good

GENTLE SOBBING.... OH NO. OH NO.

"I can't rely on you." OUCH.

she already found somebody????

KALINA!?!?!?! !!??!?!?!!!???!??!!??!!???!!???!?? HUHHHHH?!!??!!

IT'S LEAVING IT OFF WITH THAT?????? WHAT THE FUCK???????? WHAT THE FUCK???????????????????????? WHAT?????

Rate your friends

well damn alright fine LMAO

My mutuals from discord and/or Tumblr (utc cause the post is LONG)

Carmine: def a 100/10 if I have to be honest. They dealt with me SO much and my absolute nonsense as well since 2020, no words can describe how much I appreciate them for being there with me in my highest and lowest of my era. I also love terrorizing them with my muses (Lyney simp in denial), and I dont regret at all meeting and befriending them. Love you bestie <3 /p

Ryan: also a 100/10, I genuinely owe him a lot for helping me realize just. how certain things in life isn't 'normal' and fueling my brainrot/s so much. We both had so much to talk abt during the 3 years I've known him (and we're still friends to this day!), and Goddamn do I enjoy playing games w/ him and esp abt our current hyperfixations (Persona and Raincode. I still want to rattle your Yuma bot you little shit /t)

Esther (@mixed-kester) : I just met you like months ago when I first joined astronetwrk, and tbh I genuinely am v happy to have met you and enabled you BAHAHAHAHA I've been friends with her for a while but its so fun just going through the plot + AUs, and also going through pain (and making me go through a crisis with enabling and "NO YOU DID SO MUCH FOR ME" "NO, I DIDNT" LMAOOOO). Yeah, there were times when we both have our disagreements, but I genuinely could never ask for a better friend to yell at Tinuvion/Kunimitsu and the rarepare between Wanderer and Kaeya than her.

Meirin (@meimeimeirin) : I'LL SAY THIS ONCE AND I'LL SAY IT AGAIN: You are so cool and amazing and I'm so amazed with how you deal with my nonsense. I never saw an opportunity to talk to you outside of being on anon back then, and I genuinely thought that it won't be possible, but when EBG happened? I saw it and took it. You were so so so enjoyable to talk to, to rant about the entire event, and even after that, I enjoyed talking to you about even your simping with Zhongli and Alhaitham! I also enjoy bouncing off ideas with our threads (even if I have them on hold, I swear I'll reply to them orz). You're the sweetest person I've known and I am so, so glad to have met you and got to know you as a friend ;v; you also inspired me in writing for Genshin and for my faves, and for also sharing my thoughts on my sona and my selfships. I know you're busy but I hope you can see this because I genuinely appreciate you /pos

Yami (@pastel-rights) : YOU'RE SUCH A GOOD ARTIST WHAT THE HELL— honestly, how the fuck do you deal with me, Sam and Tae? (/lh) like I genuinely am so surprised I'm actually friends w/ you, but in a good way because you are?? So cool?? I swear I sometimes admire your art and when I say I wanna eat it, I would. You're such a good friend and I wish we can talk more fr

Tae (@nice-chiaki) : My first victim (/j), but really, I am in awe that I've met you in the mun's corner. I saw your blog with Itha and I genuinely loved interacting with him— your muse of him helped a lot in bringing me out of my idv writer's block slump because I had no ideas and ooooh, genuinely having you on vc and hearing/seeing you go through your cycles and bs with Sam and Yami (and Fifi as well) is the funniest thing. I also hate you (/exag) for the fandubs, and you making me go through a huge moment with Andrew and Cro. 0/10 wont recommend voicing villains (/j /j)

Sam (@paperbcy) : You are the biggest menace I know, and tbh I wonder if you're like a mirror to my menace self /j, but I'm kidding BAHAHAHAHA. I dont regret enabling you so much for your immorphy AU and our own shared AUs, and I sometimes wonder what would happen if I hadn't met you, Tae and Yami. Also, do not pull Father on my inbox ty

Fifi (@fffiii) : You dealt with my ass for years and I honestly question how you're still sane BAHAHAHAHA, but fr, even till now we're still together from 2016 - 2017(?) and I cannot stop but wonder how long it's been. It was v fun just looking back on our days at Q and even now, and I still appreciate you for everything even if you're a bigger menace than me.

Shiro (@leftdestiny-posts) : We may not talk as much or as often, but you are so kind and ouuuu you make me ;-; honestly. I am v thankful for you in dealing with my brainrot over TCO (which! I plan on revisiting and reviving as a long drawn series haha), and I hope that we talk more often when you have the time (ofc, no pressure!)

Ying (@yinyinggie) : OOOOH YOU'RE SO SWEET AND LUCIEN/YUZU TOO LIKE AUGHHH, I genuinely love you both as mods in astronetwrk AND outside of it. I genuinely appreciate you as a mod and a friend in keeping the server together and hosting games for us, and even when those went awry (read: the mafia game), you and the others made sure we had fun anyway and prioritized our comfort, which is so?? sweet??? I genuinely wish I can hug you and I wish we can speak more orz ily /p

There are more but I can't remember them all so o7 o/ hope this is enough anon

#👁️ | navi speaks #👁️ | consulting with: anonymous #;; theres so many moots but I cant list them all out #;; if I didnt mention you Im so sorry #;; my brain is fried rn HAIUHUIDF #;; okay im gonna go back to work o7 #;; gl to my notifs! /lh

I'm sorry to hear that. You were one of the best miles blogs on here but unfortunately fandoms esp the spiderverse one are extremely toxic and people go on power trips and send witch hunts after ppl minding their business. Fandoms aren't fun anymore because there's certain people who are miserable and want to make everyone else as miserable as they are or who expect people to bend to their whims on how their interact with with content. That's probably why there's like...nothing new in the tags because everyone got discouraged bcause certain individuals will find a problem with their content and harass them

I agree 100% . Thank you for calling me one of the best 🥰.

I made a whole post on how I think the toxicity made everyone stop posting. It went from fun little silly fics and people just sharing with each other, to completely left field and restrictive and pulling shit out of our asses to be “right” just because you didn’t like something someone you’ll probably never ever meet or play any role in your real life posted, said, did. We’re mad and outraged because someone made a story you didn’t like, “omg how dare they do something you don’t like.” Like be so fr 🤣🤣

I’ve always stressed how important it is to let people just be creative in stories because it’s just that A STORY.

I think it’s so important to create spaces on the internet that are for us and to leave people tf alone. Blocking , filtering, scrolling. It’s healthier for you and others less clashing. It’s a lot of fan art/stories in the ATSV fandom that I don’t like,(e.g Milecest.) I don’t actively seek it out or interact, post about it. I mind my mf business 😂😂 as I should cause there are people who weirdly like it and there’s literally nothing I can do about it

But I think that happens a lot with internet culture. Likes, comments interactions trigger dopamine that they don’t get from REAL LIFE, experiences, the internet rewards bad behavior and bullying that they like to mask as being “right”.

I’ve also noticed that a lot of people don’t have actual friend groups outside of the internet so in an effort to feel like they belong, they’ll go with whatever.

In conclusion I should also stop being emotional and overthinking stuff and letting a little outside noise affect me personally. This is my personal page, that I can post whatever I’d like on it. Spiderverse, Pjo, ATLA. And it makes me happy and I love to interact with everyone who’s just as excited as I am to talk about our interest and hyper fixations.

mermaid remake review

watched the new little mermaid yesterday. I wasn't very impressed.

Don't get me wrong, the art was stunning, and I was very very delighted to see the smooth, fluid mermaid art in live action style that us classic mermaid freaks get the craving for. Even the way they did things like water, and lighting was gorgeous.

but. the movie overall felt really mid. it was hard to get excited for it, because everything felt and looked so different; I didn't really recognize the story or the setting or any of the characters. The way they behaved and the things they did were an awkward mash up of call backs and nuances that didn't fit at all, and it gave the whole story a weird disjointed vibe. Don't even get me started on the blocking. If there was a distinctly physical embodiment of the stop-and-start rhythm it would be the blocking, which had little fluidity---but I digress.

The characters were very very different from the classics I hold near and dear. I think my main complaint is the lack of emotion they seem to express. (I have my own personal problems with the quality of the acting on that front, particularly from Triton). Pretty much every interaction is measured. Excitement, anger, fear: it's all toned down. The scenes that are supposed to be these big turning points or dramatic climaxes lose all their efficacy because the characters fail to deliver this rich emotional build-up: something that's also derailed by the weird revisions to the script. On Ariel's part, especially when she finally gets to land, seems kind of dumb (haha no pun intended). But seriously, it seems like she loses half of her intelligence just because she can't speak. She doesn't really seem aware of herself or her surroundings, can't be bothered to even nod or shake her head when someone addresses her?? She doesn't even seem like herself. There are no elaborate hand gestures, no delighted grins or awestruck laughs. my girl she's just 🧍‍♀️ there. Honestly I think Eric did the best job of actually coming across as a person with real emotions and feelings, but I was hoping they'd all do that...? so not a high bar to jump 🤦‍♀️

Also, the changes they made to the storyline didn't seem to stick very well. I can appreciate the "adaptation" aspect but they really did not pull it off. There was no seamless transition between original content and new twists. I felt like I was bouncing back and forth between two entirely different stories. while I'm on the whole disrupted storyline thing, THEY REALLY DID ERIC DIRTY AT THE END THERE. In the original, the flow from scene to scene is so flawless there's no question about continuity, or changes in setting; it's all very easy to follow. But in the new movie... you're kind of left with whiplash. the transitions are stiff and stilted, and it takes your brain a second to catch up to "oh, it's this scene now, okay" which weakens the viewing experience a lot.

I could also talk about the costuming. It looked... so sad for a disney movie. maybe they put all their money into the cgi? I did myself the disservice of getting excited for the costuming when I really should have set proper expectations after the whole Beauty and the Beast fiasco. There was little vibrant color in the costumes, and way less attention to detail than I thought they'd afford. Like the costume with the most color was Vanessa's??? and that was such a random thing? Aside from her, everything else is kind of meh (except my man grimsby out here popping the fit off fr slay my king 👑) The costumes were stylish, of course, I'll give them that. But they looked like something you'd scrounge up for a school musical and not a movie of this high societal regard and budget.

On top of that, the music was a little...??? I think Halle has a wonderful voice, and an impressive set of pipes. Wow, can that girl sing. But aside from her voice being pretty and sounding remarkably similar to the original, the music was kind of all over the place. A few lines gave you chills, right, the lilt of their tone or they hit that note perfectly, BUT other than that I was reminded of the lion king remake sound track, which tore up the underlying cadence and feeling and mood goal of the originals to the point that the new music didn't accomplish its role in the progression of the story much at all. Like the singers were just showing off and not working to make the music actually fit into the character's journey: something that is literally core to a disney character?? Hello??? And I'm sorry, I know they tried really hard (a little too hard) to include elements of the old music and references and everything else, but with the new actors/voices it just felt so off and forced. It didn't feel like they had much respect for why the original did it this or that way and were just cramming stuff in for the

of it all, you know? Also there were details they chose to include for no reason, things that served no purpose overall, accomplished nothing, and weren't entertaining in any way. Stuff that you'd think would be important given how much emphasis they put on it but,,, no, no they're just making a big deal about it for no reason?? On top of that when the actors try to bring in their own personal touch, it's jarring. Takes you in a whole different direction, really chops up the momentum of the scene. And don't even get me started on the things they chose to CUT. I will be mad about the frogs forever. WHO MADE THAT DECISION I JUST WANT TO TALK. Some of the stuff looks like they took it out just because it'd be too hard to animate or something, which is really pathetic actually because you spent all that time making the mermaids absolutely flawless but then couldn't be bothered to not take away the ensemble that made this or that number the most magical? okay ig

So the music was pretty mid in my opinion. Yk at first you get a little hyped because you're all like "Oh! I wonder how they're going to do this part!" or "Oh! this is pretty good!" but then it gets annoyingly repetitive or goes off on itself with no kriffing right and you're just sitting there waiting for it to be over because hhhhhh yeah it's not that exciting anymore.

Now, there are things about the movie I really did like. of course, the way they generated the movements underwater was a pure delight. the way the mers moved their tails, and the way they maneuvered around obstacles and such had me really captivated. I wish we could have seen more of that. I also did enjoy the new tidbits of world-building, leaning more towards the classical relationship between men and the seapowers, since that really floats my boat. And this movie made me actually believe in Ariel and Eric's love story. The small offhand pieces of dialogue and the chemistry between the actors and the *slightly* eldritch mysticism managed to sell it. Where in the original I struggled to understand the attraction, the new movie puts more emphasis on the connection they have and the things they have in common. I really appreciated that. I also thought it was great and hilarious what they did with ursula and triton. awesome way to reference the original concepts and 🤌 explains so much about their relationship throughout the story.

But in spite of all the fun elements, the movie overall was a disappointment. I really hoped they would build on top of the original story instead of just cobbling new stuff around it. The movie was inconsistent, awkward, disjointed, stiff and stilted all around. The acting had so much room for improvement, and the cut and paste job they did on the storyline was somewhere on the scale of weirdly unnecessary to hurtful. There were so many details or pieces of dialogue that were random, meaningless, and distracting. Some parts of the movie were really stunningly good---excellent execution with the perfect level of dramatics---and others were really lame. just flopped. sad wet lettuce scene. the constant back and forth had me exhausted by the end. I was really hoping this movie would go the way of Aladdin and enrich the original story because the original little mermaid was so good and so vibrant and so fun and the only thing it was missing was live action mermaids guys come on. didn't turn out that way.

I wouldn't recommend spending the money to watch this in theaters. just wait until it's available to stream or something, and have a watch party with your friends. watching it with a fun group of people might make the experience more enjoyable if you're all down to make fun of the stupid parts together and groan when someone tries to use a joke from the original and really does not pull it off. To be completely honest, I think fanfiction authors could have made the changes to the story that the remake made and told it ten times better. I'm just miffed the movie as a whole was so choppy and uncomposed because I was excited that finally someone with enough money is going to be doing live action mermaids! It's going to look so so good!! and it did look good. it looked great! the art for the most part was peak, and I loved it truly. but everything else about the film kept throwing me off and I found it so hard to really get into it or be excited for very long. because there were inspiring moments, yes, but not long afterwards, a dumb cringey (not affectionate) sad excuse of an imitation would swim by and I'd just sigh dejectedly like aw man.

also the ending was a drag. I was like. hmm, is it over yet? and no, it was not over yet. It just kept going. rip me. seriously I'm better off reading (or better yet writing my own) fanfiction.

I was really excited about this project, and got immensely disappointed with the release of the UI. The fact it's almost a carbon copy of FlightRising's interface is just so... sad. It basically drains Pawborough of its own identity. I really-really hope you guys will consider changing it, because the original concept is lovely. Here's a few things I'd like to comment on: 1. FR's interface is dated. Currently, they're refactoring the site, and i wouldn't be surprised if their next goal after the refactor would be a UI redesign. And you guys, instead of trying to modernise it and make it your own, are copying a UI from *a decade ago*. 2. Why are you keeping the narrow column format of the site? Most people have a wide-screen monitor nowadays, and it looks bizarre to have such a compressed website. Please consider automatically adapting the site's layout to a user's screen width, sorta like Wolvden/Lioden does. IIRC, they have two columns of content (main stuff in the center & a column with user's data on the left), which stack into one column when you're using a mobile device (aka a narrow screen). But since you're planning to make a mobile version anyway, you should consider making the desktop version of the site wide and, well, desktop-friendly, and then figure out the mobile version as it's own thing. 3. Does the user box in the top right of the site really have to be literally identical to FR, with the same data placed in the same way, and also with the energy bar literally having the same exact segments on it? Especially since you have removed the flight banner, making that user block much less balanced looking. Instead, I think you guys can consider making it much more horizontal and narrow. Assuming the two variables on the right (book and turnip icons) are pet/familiar count and cat count, I feel like they can be dropped completely and moved to the user page. I don't think they need to be displayed at all times on all site's pages.

Image link

Alternatively, you can also use Lioden/Wolvden's approach and make a separate column, and then put all user information and bookmarks in that side column. As a compromise between FR & LD, you can place that user column on the right. Here's a screenshot from google for reference:

Image link

I'd also like to point out the bookmarks box in the column with user data. It's virtually unlimited and you can name your own bookmarks. Introducing this would allow you to largely collapse the left column with site navigation, because you don't use most of those links every day. As a FR player, I would only keep ~13 links in my always-visible bookmarks instead of the 29 available in the left navigation bar. It would be especially nice if I could add emojies into my bookmark names like you can on LD/WD, so it's easier to see what i need right away. As a mini-addition, please work on the navigation column on the left. It's horrible on FR, and it will be horrible on PB if you introduce it. There's gotta be better ways to navigate the site. 4. I hope you reconsider some of the artstyle choices regarding backgrounds and decorations. What got me excited about PB was the absolutely fantastic character art from NPCs to the breed artworks. You seriously couldn't have picked a better artist for this over Amelia B. It has so much personality and immediately elevated PB in my eyes over Lorwolf, which had absolutely soulless art and looked almost traced from photos. But then I was absolutely heartbroken to see you have went with this odd, textured, sketchy style for the backdrops. Why? I'm assuming it's something like anime-style logic, where characters are cell-shaded and flat and backgrounds are painterly, but to pull that off you need a simply spectacular background artist and... i'm sorry, but your artists just don't pull it off. There's color going outside of lines on the opal waterfall background, some "hairy" scratchy lines that don't follow the shape of the object and dang it just looks flat in terms of values. Its not a terrible thing to make the cat pop, but the fact it's literally the opposite of the cats' style just makes it look odd. The obsidian sentry artwork is probably my least favorite out of everything shown by far. the head anatomy is all over the place and the shading is blurry and muddy where it looks like it should have sharp edges. It just seems like you hired a professional to do the breed artwork, and an actual newbie to do some of the items/backgrounds. Addittionally, i noticed that you're planning to introduce player-made familiars/decors, so that would introduce even more style variation into the equation. Please, please consider making the style same-ish for all site assets. It's not bad if the background assets stay low-contast and a bit flat, but at least give them the same linework as the cats in terms of weight, texture, and quality. Perhaps you can use colored lineart in decorations and backgrounds to make it more muted in comparison to the cats. And I see I'm not the only one asking for this, so please don't fall for the sunk cost fallacy and rework the assets you already have, instead of "dooming" your sites for decades of having blurry, sketchy backgrounds. Anyway, all of this is coming from a good place, I promise this wasn't written in bad faith. Im extremely excited and passionate about this project and I really-really hope it succeeds. But please, not only listen to user feedback, but also make changes before it's too late.

Thank you for the feedback. To address a few things I believe were lost in translation that we hadn't made clear, and to address this feedback:

The narrow width of the container actually is a placeholder! We do wish to switch to a wider version, and the demo utilizes an early test build. We do already utilize flexbox, which will adjust to the player's screen size, but it's our intention to make the container limit bigger. On top of that, we are hoping to modernize much of the old interface style while keeping a nostalgic charm, including things such as integration of flexbox as an example. Thank you for pointing this out, as this was something that wasn't made clear, and that we did not think to mention.

The userbox is our design nadir right now, we understand, and we are looking to redesign it immediately. Our idea at this time is to disperse the pixel components among it into the ribbon, place where a graphic was intended to go into the navigation, and leave only the icon and energy bar at the top. Actually, we have design mockups with much similar placement to your mockup! Though we were considering putting money in the ribbon too so as to distance ourselves as much as possible. We will consider the feedback of leaving the components strictly on a user's page, so we will fiddle with this. As well, we will fiddle with information potentially in a column. Thank you for the effort you put in!

Regarding the user navigation, we could potentially make it collapsable, as well as introduce bookmarks for those who prefer it. However, to avoid the inaccessibility of dropdowns, the default state would have to remain uncollapsed. Making the navigation collapsable has actually been discussed previously as a good idea. As of now we are looking into increasing the margin of the list and importing imagery into it for better readability, thinking similar to Marapets and early Neopets, but different. What we enjoy about the navigation is a consistent knowledge and potential memorization of everything on a site that collapsed information does not provide, but perhaps we can design something that will allow for the best of both worlds. We are taking in this feedback to heart. Thank you for sharing what you as a user prefer from your game experience!

We understand your distaste for some of the Kickstarter assets, and should there be a demand we can reconsider the rendering for some of them, such as decor. We do, however, have several artists on the team that can do backgrounds and decor, and we shall work to better instruct style discrepancy. We apologize for the distaste in the assets, and we will improve with both stylistic direction and artistic synergy. The intention for our backgrounds is to bring a storybook feeling, and there is going to be an amount of subjectivity to the judgement of this choice. We apologize that it is not to your taste. Regardless, we appreciate your feedback, will note it for future adaptation of our stylistic direction, and once again apologize for your distaste. To clarify, "user-made" decor and companions will simply be user instruction on the design, while our art and design team is still controlling the final piece.

Thank you for feedback on the user experience, and we promise we have not been writing off these points entirely, but rather wanting to express that we understand and, as stated, want to incorporate this feedback while remaining true to our philosophy. We apologize that our communication was lackluster and will be keeping this as our statement on the matter before updating with our new designs. We will do better to communicate our intentions. We do want to hear what a user will most value from an interface experience! Once again, thank you for taking the time and effort to share this information with us, and thank you for the patience as we learn!

[ʜᴄ] 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐧 𝐚 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐲𝐮𝐬𝐮𝐤𝐞

sʏɴᴏᴘsɪs: what having yusuke as your boyfriend is like!

⤷ ᴀ/ɴ: gn reader

— RELATIONSHIP OVERVIEW

hand!!made!!gifts!!

lemme tell u he does it all! a portrait, homemade sweets (with akira’s help), little trinkets and more!

he’s very observant and will immediately notice any changes in your demeanour

due to his directness, he’ll straight up say anything 😭

Y: “Me and [y/n] will be leaving now”

R: “why?”

Y: “Because I’d prefer to kiss them in a more intimate setting”

Yeah.. A very passionate boyfriend in terms of romance, you’re constantly telling him to save the money he doesn’t have

If you’re a persona user then he always throws himself in front of potentially fatal attacks coming your way..even if he needs to heal he’ll use his turn to heal you instead even if you have more health than him

a very emotionally filling relationship. he helps you see all of your beauty on the outside and inside, he’s so sweet and his eccentric way of talking is almost as if a prince is trying to court you lmaoo

— BEFORE THE RELATIONSHIP

yusuke..is so clueless

his whole life has centred around art and creating things for madarame so he’s never had the chance to just..focus

as first he thought that maybe he fancied ann because she’s literally gorgeous but it seemed to be of an admired beauty that a loved beauty (u get me?)

then, he saw you. sliding in to block him from touching ann that day and pulling her away as akira and ryuji shouted at him

your caring and protective aura, how you carried yourself and how you spoke to others was eye-catching. he couldn’t help but reach out to you instead

you captivated him in a way no muse could really do.

you ended up taking ann’s place modelling for him and yes it was still awkward and you had 3 teenagers that were literally gonna commit assault for you

it got a little easier after the whole madarame thing..when he could finally focus on being a teenager

he most likely asked akira what he should do on one of their mementos trips and akira was startstruck! everyone knew yusuke was more eccentric and worked a little differently from others but he never saw a change in behaviour on how he treated you compared to others

— ASKING YOU OUT

surprise! he asked you to model for him

did his whole thing about how he was in an artistic slump yada yada..

but as soon as you dot to his dormitory, you noticed how his canvas was already beautifully painted, accompanied by a cheesy display of pink and red flowers

“[y/n], truth be told, I don’t need you to model for me..But I want to ask you to consider being my partner”

yeah..weird choice of words yusuke

“Partner?”

“Significant other, if you’d like”

this boy could not sound more awkward than he could

pls say yes he’s already on one knee like he proposing to you

— IN THE RELATIONSHIP

you feel like you’re dating a prince

deadass

fr he enjoys more “outdated” ways of showing love such as daily bouquets, hand written letters, magical getaways and the occasional art themed date

for my fellow fem inserting readers, i thought you didn’t have an interest in the opposite sex yusuke?

he loves to declare his love in strange ways and he’s that means draining his bank account

brings akira to mementos to protect y’all while he draws you in your person user form

ryuji teases him so much but at the end of the day guess who’s still the single one?

HE!!KNOWS!!HOW!!TO!!DRESS!!

ann is your number one supporter, she’s always offering to take couple photos of you two and often captures candids when you’re out with the group

makoto is so sweet she’s always telling yous about new places where you two can go on dates to!

futaba relentlessly teases yusuke “Inari, I don’t know how you got [y/n] with that face of yours”

it’s all jokes though!!

sojiro was annoyed that you didn’t chose akira cuz he needs someone to hold that boy down

PLSSS your social media comments from yusuke are all like;

“your eyes are so captivating in the photo, it’s struck inspiration in me to begin a new passion project, please model for me my angel”

😭😭😭 pls

PROTECT HIM PLEASE HE’S A LOVESICK FOOL!!

Thanku so much!! Lots of love xoxo

(reader insert may not be necessary!😉)

Awwww!! Thank you!! I’m glad you enjoy and appreciate them ( ´ω` ). Went a little off the rails with this as I was feeling inspired and did full scenarios. I hope that’s ok!

GOM Boys + Sending their kids to school (prompt)

Akashi

“Why don’t you want to go to school?” Akashi asked, holding his son’s hand, as they arrived at the building.

His son, looking positively adorable in his little blazer & tie, looked up at him with big, bright, golden eyes before looking back down. “I don’t want to go.” He repeated quietly. “It’s scary.”

“Scary? How is it scary?” Akashi asked. “You were fine when we did the tour the other day. It’s just like that.”

“But you won’t be with me Papa.” He replied in a soft voice. Worrying his bottom lip and eyes starting to get very wet. “I’ll be all alone.”

Akashi sighed as his son began to sniffle and knelt down in front of him. “Stop crying. Akashi men don’t cry over things like this.” He pulled out his handkerchief to clean the few tears that had fallen. His son giving a small hiccup as he stopped crying. Then Akashi smiled at him. “You won’t be alone. You’ll have a whole room of classmates to keep you company. I was like you when I was little. I was scared I wouldn’t make any friends, or that the other students would hate me. But that didn’t happen. I made friends. I got to spend time with people outside of the house. Uncle Kuroko and Mama were all people I met at school. Don’t you want to make friends like that?”

His son beamed and nodded once before looping his arms around Akashi’s neck to hug him. They then finish walking into school and dropping him off at class. He then walked back to his car alone. Sliding into the back seat when the driver opened the door for him.

“Shall we head to the office now sir?”

“In a minute,” Akashi replied. Leaning back in his seat to rest his head back against the rich leather. A hand over his eyes. “Circle the block a few times. I don’t want to leave them alone just yet.”

Aomine

“Hn? You don’t want to go to school now?” Aomine asked as son stopped in the middle of the sidewalk. Digging his heels in about not wanting to take one step further. “But you have to go to school.”

“No I don’t! And you can’t make me!” The mini-Aomine yelled back. His father sighed.

“Yes, you do. It’s the law and, I would know, I’m a cop.” He pointed his thumb to himself, wearing his uniform, as this was supposed to be a quick drop off before he went in for his shift. “Do you want me to arrest you on your first day of school?”

“You wouldn’t do that!” The little boy replied. All bravado like his father, before his shoulders sank and his bottom lip stuck out. “I don’t want to go. School is boring. And what if the kids are mean to me. I’d rather stay home with Daddy….”

Aomine sighed and rubbed the back of his head. He couldn’t really argue with the school being boring part. He hated school when he was a kid, but he had to go. “Listen, Daddy can’t stay home with you today because he has to go to work. And you can’t come to work with me because, if you do, we’ll catch all the bad guys and then what will I do for work the next day.” The mini-Aomine snickered.

Aomine then leaned down to get eye level with his son. “I’m sure the kids will be nice. There’s bound to be one good egg in the bunch. Maybe you can even find someone to play basketball with.” His son’s eyes sparkled at that. “But, if any kids are mean to you, you tell me and I’ll come back and arrest them.” He held out his handcuffs to make a point. “Sound good?”

His son giggled again and told him, “deal!” before they both walk into the school for drop off. Thankfully, no one at the school was arrested that day. School was his son’s new favorite place. At least for now anyway.

Kise

“Are you sure they have to go now? Maybe we could keep them home for another year??”

“Ryo….” His significant other warned as they got their daughter up to the school, each holding one of her hands, for drop off.

“Don’t worry Daddy! I’ll be fine!” The little girl chirped. Practically skipping the whole way there she was so excited.

“Really? Are you sure princess? Because, if you want to start school tomorrow, Daddy would be totally fine with that.”

“Ryouta!”

“No, that’s ok Daddy.” She replied with a big grin. “I want to go and make new friends! I’m excited to show everyone my new dress you got me.” His princess did a little modeling twirl they had practiced, and Kise’s heart broke into a thousand pieces only to be reformed instantly again with love. “I’m gonna go inside now. See you after school!”

“Do you want Daddy to walk you to your classroom?!”

“No!” His daughter called back. Unaware she had just stomped on her father’s newly reformed heart.

“They grow up so fast….”

“Honestly Ryouta.” His s/o said, shaking their head, as they offered him a tissue. “It’s the kids that are usually crying on the first day. Not the parents.”

Kuroko

“Sweetheart….you have to go to school.” Kuroko tried to reason with his daughter, who was holding her backpack and her breath until Kuroko ‘gave up’.

Of course, she couldn’t hold it that long in the end. Her lungs were very small.

She let out a gasp of air, quickly inhaling new breath into her lungs as fast as she could fill them, but still pouted. “Why can’t you be my teacher Papa?!”

“Because,” Kuroko reasoned, as if they haven’t been over this a hundred times, “you need to have someone else be your teacher. It’s not fair to have Papa be your teacher.”

“But it’s not fair that other kids have Papa for their teacher!” She argued back. “I don’t want to go if I can’t see Papa and have to share him….”

Kuroko sighed before offering them a smile. “We’ll still be at the same school. So I’ll see you at lunch time or on the playground. Ms. Himora is really nice too. You’ll like being in her class. I’ve told her all about you and she’s excited to see your drawings.”

His daughter perked up at that. Art and drawing being one of her passions.

She agreed to go, but only on the condition that she wanted to see this other teacher’s art supplies. Ms. Himora of course showed them to her, and let her color the whole afternoon. Kuroko tried not to seem irritated that by the end of the day his little girl was calling her her favorite teacher.

Midorima

“Do you have your notebook?” Midorima asked as he walked his son to school. “Pens? Paper? Pencil?”

“Yes Dad…” His son replied sullenly, walking beside the taller green haired man as they come up to the school. When he saw the brick building, however, he tightened the hold on his hand.

“Hm? What’s wrong?”

“Dad I….I don’t want to go to school.” Midorima gave a surprised ‘hn?’ in response, but his son just looked down. Fidgeting with his glasses. “What if….what if the teacher is scary? What if the other kids don’t like me? What if no one wants to play with me?” The young boy began to spiral and sniffling, thinking about all the things that could go wrong.

His father sighed and knelt down in front of him. “What do we always say?”

“Man proposes, God disposes.”

“Right.” Midorima replied. Not seeming phased by how his life’s motto sound so much less intimidating coming from such a cute, small voice. “We have to do our best to make sure things work out. We can’t worry about what could go wrong. That’s God’s job. We focus on the now.” He pulled a key chain out of his pocket and handed it to his son. “Take today’s lucky item with you. It’ll keep you safe.”

“But Dad! What about you?!”

“I’ll be alright. You just make sure you get to class on time and have a good day.”

His son came home later that afternoon to tell him all about the amazing day he had at his new school. His teacher was nice. His classmates really liked him. They even served his favorite in the cafeteria!

Midorima was happy for his son, and choose not to tell him that he had had the day from hell without his lucky item. From that day forward they each got their own.

Murasakibara

“Eh…? You don’t want to go to school?” Murasakibara looked at his daughter as she shook her head. Scuffing her new shoes on the sidewalk. “How come? You have to give me a good reason to skip your first day.”

“I…I don’t want to go…” She replied softly. His little girl incredibly shy. “What if the other kids make fun of me?” Murasakibara hummed a little. He supposed that was a good reason.

For better or worse, his children had inherited his height. It wasn’t so bad for her older brothers. Being tall was an admirable attribute for boys. For girls though…..well….it just made his angel that much bigger of a target.

“If the kids make fun of you, tell them your dad is even taller and he’ll stick them in a tree and leave them there if they make fun of you.” The little girl giggled, clearly picturing the image, but still didn’t seem convinced to go. Murasakibara knelt down so he wasn’t towering so much over her and patted her head. “School is important. You need to go so you can be smart like you Mom. Not a dumb dumb like your Dad.” He smoothed out her hair from ruffling it. It had taken them a while to get it right, and he didn’t want to ruin it. “But, I’ll be here when you get out today and we’ll go get ice cream as a reward. Our secret.”

His daughter beamed at the promise of ice cream and nodded eagerly. She then went off to school without any complaints. The apple didn’t fall far from the tree. You could get him to do anything for ice cream too.

The Train To Apparent Death

(don’t worry, no one actually dies)

Draco Malfoy x Non-Slytherin Reader

Summary: You’re lucky enough to get a ride with Draco Malfoy on the Hogwarts Express, but madness lies along the way.

Platform 9¾ was still Platform 9¾.

Just like every other day at the Hogwarts Express, first-years still bidding goodbye to their parents, much older students rushing in to sit with their friends, lots of mothers and fathers asking if they brought their wands, their books, their robes, their everything.

The difference was, there were more words of warning.

“Dear, always stick with someone, Sirius Black is on the loose!”

“Don’t go wandering in the middle of the night or Sirius Black will bite your fingers off!”

“Oh, golly, I’m having second thoughts about it now that Sirius Black could be anywhere!”

You subtly covered your ears as you walked past the crowd of sobbing and waving parents and stepped onboard.

You looked in the windows of each compartment, looking for one that wasn’t too crowded. The first had a bunch of first-years, trying to show off their magic abilities, which were none, thanks for asking. The second had a girl your age reading an upside-down book, talking and singing to herself, which you absolutely did not need.

The third cart had just one sleeping man, his face covered with a newspaper, laying sideways, occupying the entire seat. No thanks, I’ll pass, you scrunched your nose in disgust.

The fourth one was empty, except for a boy on the corner, his face covered by the cover of The Daily Prophet he was reading. You opened the door and walked halfway in with your trunk.

“Could I sit here with you? Everywhere else is full, so-”

Your words got lost in your throat as the boy put the paper down and stared back at you with intimidating grey eyes.

It was Draco Malfoy.

“-or, I could just find someplace else.” Your voice cracked as you spun around to leave. “Have a nice d-”

“No, I suppose I could tolerate just one person for the train ride. Consider yourself lucky. Get in and shut the door.”

Did Draco Malfoy just let you sit with him? For an entire bloody train ride?

“I-” your face heated up. “W-Well… thanks then.”

You slid your trunk under your seat and sat down across him as he turned his attention back to his newspaper.

“Anything from the trolley, dears?” A high-pitched voice made you look up. It was the trolley witch with the sweets trolley, which was your favorite part of the train ride.

“I’ll have two bars of chocolate and a sherbet lemon, thanks.” You paid for the sweets as she handed them to you.

“Do you want anything?” you asked Draco, but he only responded by rolling his eyes and blocking your view of his face with the paper.

“You know what? I’ll take a chocolate frog too.” You paid for it and thanked her, and after you closed the door, you slid the chocolate frog next to him.

What you didn’t know was that he pulled the newspaper over his face because he could hardly stop from smiling.

You looked up at the headline of his paper and yelped in surprise as you came face-to-face with the screaming image of Sirius Black.

“Mother of Merlin!” you cried.

Draco put his newspaper down with no trace of the grin, in its place an annoyed grimace.

“What?” he asked blatantly.

“Sorry, it’s just- I…” you looked away and pointed at the paper. “…Sirius Black.”

“Oh,” he folded the newspaper and went back to reading, the headline page covered by the other pages.

“Thanks,” you opened your bag and took out your copy of Newt Scamander’s Fantastic Beasts & Where to Find Them.

A few hours passed, and neither of you said a word to another, until he put his paper down and looked at the time, and you were able to stay calm as the image of Sirius Black came into view once more.

“Do you think Sirius Black could get into Hogwarts?” you asked just above a whisper.

He stared out the window, and you were just about to drop the conversation until he spoke softly.

“My father said the Ministry’s in charge of preventing that,” he said, without glancing at you.

“But isn’t the Ministry the people who run Azkaban?” you asked again. “I mean, if Black’s escaped them once, he can sneak right under their noses again too.”

“Are you scared, L/N?” he smirked, still not looking at you.

“Yes, of course, he’s killed people, so it’s natural to fear for my life,” you pulled your sleeves over your hands, “I’d rather be scared than apathetic.”

“A pathetic what?” he joked, and you failed to hide your laugh. But you shut your mouth as his face suddenly grew serious.

“Father said the Ministry’s setting up tighter security throughout the school perimeter,” he sat straighter. “He says even Dumbledore hesitated for a while. So, there’s nothing to worry about, is there?”

“I suppose not,” you mumbled.

There was a few more moments of silence until the train rumbled, slowed down, and shook to a stop.

Draco stood up and grabbed his luggage. “Oh, great! I can finally get off this bloody-”

His words turned into a shout of terror as all the lights went off.

“Merlin, what is going on! Wait till my father-”

“Malfoy-”

“-hears about this! By Salazar’s beard, he’ll probably have me study somewhere else than this pathetic-”

“Malfoy, y-”

“-pig sty! He’ll probably have Dumbledore removed fr-”

“Draco, please stay quiet, you’re making it worse,” you pleaded.

He snapped around as he heard the slight tremor in your voice.

“What is it?” He asked, trying to keep the concern from showing in his words.

“No, no,” you replied. “It’s nothing, really.”

“Stay put. I’ll get you some water.” He cursed himself as he stood back up. Why was he doing all this for you?

You heard the compartment door slide open and pulled your knees to your chest. After a while, he came back with a glass of water. He took something out of his bag, and light filled the room as he whispered, “Lumos.”

You took the water and took a light sip, but stared at the water with confusion.

Your breath was visible, and the water in your cup formed cold mist.

You turned to the compartment door, and on its window ice formed, spreading like a web until it filled the entire door and even enveloped the knob.

“Draco?” Your voice shook as you moved crawled further away from the door.

“Wha-” he stopped in his steps as he saw the ice forming on the door.

The two of you stared at the frozen door in silence until he snorted.

“It’s probably just some snow, I’ll wipe it off.” He said, but even he could hear the uncertainty in his voice.

“Draco, no-”

He didn’t listen to you as he walked over, pushing the door open as some shards of ice fell to the floor, turning into puddles of water.

“Malfoy, would you stop?”

You pushed him away from the door, slamming it. But your eyes widened and all breath left you as you took in the figure standing very still right outside the door. It was a creature covered in grey, shredded material, and the only thing separating you and this monstrosity was a single pane of glass.

It gave out heavy breaths, and fog appeared on the window. You didn’t realize the tears trickling down your face until they turned cold on your cheeks. You wanted to move backward but you couldn’t; your feet were planted on the ground, telling you if you moved it might not be so patient with killing you.

It gave out one last exhale, the grey cloth fluttering dangerously as the entire door filled with fog. When the fog receded, the creature was no longer there. But you still didn’t budge.

“Bloody hell,” you heard Draco’s voice behind you, but you didn’t turn around.

“So that’s what a dementor is? Merlin, that thing was ghastly! If this doesn’t keep Sirius Black out of the school I don’t know what will- Y/N? Y/N, it’s gone. Y/N, don’t stand there like a-”

“What the hell was that?” You croaked, your voice harsh.

“Y/N, it’s gone,” he chuckled. “there’s absolutely nothing to worry about!”

You felt someone grab your arm, and you tried to pull away, but you were face-to-face with Draco.

“Merlin, you’re cold as ice. And you’ve gone white! Y/N, what’s wrong-” He stared at your tear-stained face for a second, then his expression changed.

“Oh, no,” he brushed his finger across your face. “Hey, Y/N, sit down.”

You didn’t move, but squinted hard to clear your vision. He sighed, then you felt one arm rubbing your back and lightly pushing you down onto the seat. He took your hands in his, blew a little on them, then massaged your palms with his thumbs. You felt yourself slowly come back to your senses, and steadied your breathing as he looked on.

As the two of your locked gazes again, he took you in his arms, rubbing circles into your back.

“Wha… What was that, Draco?” you asked.

“That was a dementor, it’s the kind of creature that guards Azkaban. Those are the things that the Ministry sent to Hogwarts to keep watch at the gates.” He frowned, then turned to the door as a knock startled you.

Draco groaned, then stood up and strutted over to the door.

“Who is it?”

“It’s Professor Remus Lupin, your new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.”

You looked up and realized it was the man you had seen in one of the compartments.

“Oh, well, what is it?”

“I’m just here to warn you about the dementors. They won’t harm you unless you’re Sirius Black.”

“Oh, thanks a bunch, professor,” Draco rolled his eyes, “Thanks for telling us they’re harmless after a student went into a panic attack because of them.”

“Oh, dear, is she alright?” Professor Lupin looked past Draco and at you.

“I’m fine professor, just a little cold,” you said.

“Oh, and she’s cold, professor, aside from the fact she went ghost-pale and couldn’t move, professor,” he added sarcastically.

You were about to tell him it was fine, when you felt him drape something around your shoulders. It was his robe. You snuggled deeper into it and looked back up at Professor Lupin.

“But anyways, I’m fine. How are the other students?”

“Oh, Mr. Potter’s soul was nearly sucked out by the dementor, he lost consciousness for a while. Which reminds me, do any of you have a cloth or a towel?”

Draco rolled his eyes at the mention of Potter, but looked back at you as you almost fell off the seat reached for your bag and rummaged through it. He pushed your hand away and knelt down to you.

“What are you doing, L/N?”

“You heard him, Harry needs a towel.”

“Well, I’ll get it, sit down, you just looked like Death a few minutes ago.”

He got a towel from your bag and handed it to Professor Lupin.

“Ah, Professor,” you sat up, sticking your hand in your pocket. “I heard chocolate helps relieve the pain. Maybe this could help?”

As you handed Professor Lupin the chocolate, Draco Malfoy stared at you in awe. You had just been so terrified just a few minutes ago, yet now you were more concerned of someone else’s wellbeing. He was so puzzled. He expected to fall in love with someone who was as spunky as him, someone who was as cold as he was, yet his heart chose you, someone who he could never imagine to be bad.

What the bloody hell was going on with him.

“Thank you, Y/N, I look forward to seeing you in class,” Professor Lupin smiled.

“Oh, and five points to H/H.”

You smiled weakly, then as Lupin left the compartment, you looked back at Draco, who was staring at you with an unreadable expression.

“What? Do… Do I still look like Death?” You laughed nervously.

“I…” Draco opened his mouth to speak, but closed it immediately, and shook his head while smiling.

“What?” You sat up as he shuffled in next to you.

“It’s just… do you know how beautiful you are?”

That took you aback. It left you stunned for a second.

“Why would you say that?” You were nothing short of confused.

“Because… I always saw you as one of the prettiest girls of our year, but the only thing that outshines that is your heart. I just saw you nearly die of horror five minutes ago, but you just… gave Lupin that chocolate instead of keeping it to yourself.”

“But Potter needed it more-”

“Potter, Schmotter.” He rolled his eyes. “What I’m saying is, I’m madly in love with you.”

You stared at him, speechless.

There was a twinkle of mischief in his eyes. “Of course, if you don’t feel the same way-”

You leaned forward and kissed him. Not actually kissed him, but a temporary brush of your lips on his; slow enough for him to stutter in surprise, but too fast for you to even register it in your brain.

He turned to you and furrowed his eyebrows.

“Did you just kiss me?”

You suddenly realized the danger of what you did and practically flew to the other side of the compartment.

“I-I didn’t mean to,” you stammered. “I’m sorry-”

But you were cut off when he pulled you up by the shoulders and leaned in.

“If you’re going to kiss Draco Malfoy, you have to do it absolutely perfectly,” he whispered hoarsely, “As you know, all Malfoys settle for nothing but the best.”

He pressed his lips to yours, and your hands found their way to his neck and up to his hair as he pulled you closer by the waist.

It felt like he wouldn’t pull away for a long time -but then again, neither would you- if the train hadn’t stopped.

“Well, a-are we dating now?” you asked unsurely.

“Not yet,” he pecked you on the nose. “This Saturday, Courtyard, wear something nice.”

You smiled.

“Of course, Draco,” you winked. “As you said, all Malfoys settle for nothing but the best.”

You and Draco sat down at your respective table wearing the biggest smiles on your faces.

Your friends were talking and chattering happily, but as they turned to you their jaws hit the table.

“Wh-what’s the matter?” You asked.

Your best friend pulled on your arm.

“You’re wearing a Slytherin robe.”

A/N: Now y’all know why Draco was concerned about Harry fainting ;)))

you can be sure I will come back to talk about him with you! and to think I was just going to ask you about that art, but now I am going to make a camp here in your ask box 😜

I wanted to get Kazuha because of his cool style, but he is just a cool character... can't say I got too much into him (yet... who knows?).

ok childe using a bow already had me hooked, since I love bow users, but nerfing himself is like, HOW OVERPOWERED ARE YOU? And yea, I love how he was all pro us and the next moment fighting us? AND THE NEXT HE CALLED ME HIS FRIEND? I wanna be more than friends and I would fight you any day 😏💕 btw, his letter on his birthday? I was packing my things and going to his place the moment I got it 😜 but, really, I knew nothing about him all it took is that appearance and I was hooked... like "I don't know who you are but... writer's block was blasted out of the way"... the funny thing is, somehow, in my mind I got his character just right @.@

Yea, Inazuma is packed with fem power! I think I like it the most so far though :3

OMG, yes, I was like "I AM HERE YOU KNOW!", there are though several places that the characters are rather flirty or just somewhere on the line and this is so engaging. I love it! Whatever they make him though a 4* or 5* I am sure his story is interesting... it is kinda hinted that maybe he isn't even from Inazuma? and I think I read somewhere that he got kicked from his country?

I... did not? I am going to search that art right now!

Also, I have to say I would love to know what Thoma and Childe would think of one another!

the problem of writing about them is that I actually need to stop playing to do it!

🤝🤝🤝

honestly, same. his aesthetics and his kit were way too cool, and his personality is cute, but it ain't my cup of tea, considering that i like characters like childe and thoma... kaeya's in that grouping too ngl. i thought kazuha was gonna end up as some cute, shy poetic boy but he turned out to be pretty edgy LOL

fr, fr, can u imagine childe wielding a claymore though?? omg, and imagine if he was a polearm, i can imagine the pretty hydro-infused polearm and the animation would look like it came from kimetsu no yaiba's breathing techniques // ah, yes, calls us his comrade, then enemy, then friend, then goes off about these implications about if he wasn't fatui, he'd love to travel with u some day. and when u place him in the teapot, his lines r so cute?? one of his lines mention how he'd love to bring u to his home country and introduce u to his siblings and what not ;__; *instantly faves his letter* he stood us up :/ where did all his promises go !! ur my favorite type of person, u know who u want as soon as u see them and suddenly ur kissing their feet <3 childe is criminally underrated overseas, me thinks, but guess what? he ranked number one for male character in genshin in a japanese magazine poll!! our kin lays there

ur right, i thought i liked liyue the best (which is, quite naive bc there was only two regions) but inazuma has to take the cake for this one. every quest makes me depressed but it's so good. and the character designs r just, WOW

wait till u get to inazuma arc ii if u haven't already, when ayaka, u, and thoma do a little food get together and thoma pulls a dumb move LOL yeahhh in the web event, they said that thoma isn't from inazuma, but idk about him being kicked from his country o__o that's gotta be a wild ride wtf, bc inazuma is like, an isolationist country (the sakoku decree was an irl thing too) atm, so they don't take foreigners?? and that's why it's hard for merchants n stuff to move around

here's some thoma fan arts w/ pets:

here

AHHHH DUDE, THOMA AND CHILDE, LOOK AT THIS FANART, there's a translation in the comments but LIKE THIS IS genius

All My Strength, For You

For Kaciart (https://kaciart.tumblr.com/post/623568650228596736). I am routinely inspired by your art to write these things. Some inspire more than others, and I may have an FFVII brewing in my mind from another recent pic. (Even though I know, like, nothing about it.) I love your work and am glad to be among the followers.

I know there isn’t much to go from, but I always imagine the training halls are at or below ground in this universe (the glaives’ areas obviously being an exception.) Here, it’s just below ground.

This is set the September before the events of the game. (Noct 20, Prom 19, Iggy 21, and Gladio 22)

Story under the cut. Also on ff.net

Prompto was somewhat enjoying his afternoon. Yeah, taking a few hits from Noctis wasn’t what most people call “fun”, but this was time he gets to spend with his friend.

He was still technically a recruit in the Crownsguard, but he had finished most of the basic training last month. Now it was just drilling those basics and building proficiency in his division, projectile weaponry. He thinks Noct was the one who pushed for him to get placement there, but he didn’t know for sure. He was shaping up to be as expert a marksman as Weskham Armaugh of his majesty’s retinue according to his instructors. He really hoped he was good enough to join Noctis’ retinue when he goes on his tour of Lucis.

A fist sailing closer to his face brought Prompto out of his thoughts and back to the moment. Right. Focus here, focus now, block the fist, kick the open side. He and Noctis were working on hand-to-hand combat in one of the Crownsguard’s satellite offices. And Noctis, of course, was winning more than losing.

“C’mon Prom, I know you can do better than that,” Noctis teased as he dodged the kick. Once upon a time, that would have hurt Prompto’s confidence.

Now it served to spur him on.

Prompto let out a short breath, readied his arms, and sprang at his friend.

BOOM

Everything seemed to slow as sudden tremors knocked the two of them off their feet.

Prompto noticed cracks forming in the wall as he fell. He managed to twist enough to cover Noctis when he landed. Noctis was dazed as he looked up at Prompto.

But he would not move until he was sure Noctis could get out safely, and he didn’t.

Not as another boom was heard through the ceiling.

Not as tremors rocked the area again.

Not as dust fell around them.

Not as he could hear the concrete cracking.

And certainly not as what felt like a ton of concrete landed on his back.

After an agonizing minute, Noctis’s eyes cleared.

“Astrals, Prom! -“

“You ok, buddy?” Prompto’s voice was breathy.

“Wha- Am I ok, are YOU ok?!” Noctis’s words got faster and faster the more he spoke, “Wait, no, stupid question. Of course, you’re not ok. A bunch of concrete just landed on top of you.”

Prompto’s weak smile turned into a grimace as some weight shifted. Rescuers were digging through the rubble or the debris was settling.

Noctis thought of how he could signal the rescuers when something wet landed on his face. He looked to Prompto and saw blood on what hair and clothes he could see.

“Noct,” Prompto breathed, his voice barely a whisper, “Get out of here. You can send someone for me when you climb out.”

“No Prom, I won’t leave you.”

“Please. Help can find me faster if you show then where I am.”

Noctis looked away with a frown, tears in his eyes. “Why do this?”

“Because you’re my friend. I’d give everything for you.”

Noctis could only stare in shock and wonder.

“So please.”

At that, Noctis’s face set in determination. “I will make sure they come back for you; I swear.”

Prompto gave a small nod. Noctis nodded back and wriggled out from underneath Prompto as quickly and gently as he could. He spotted a small opening up and to his right. With one last look at his friend, the Prince of Lucis began to climb.

Rescue teams and Crownsguard worked frantically to clear the rubble. According to the younger Lords Amicitia and Scientia, Prince Noctis was in the building when it collapsed. They set to work immediately after the bomb-induced tremors ceased. That was an hour ago.

The sky continued to darken slowly as crews worked to dig those trapped out. They had already pulled 15 other Crownsguard out with nearly 20 more still buried. They had a long night ahead of them.

The Prince’s shield and advisor rushed over to a commotion a little deeper in the hole. The crew there found another person. They worked quickly to uncover the person and found another Crownsguard. He was unconscious but alive. The young lords sighed to themselves and kept digging. They would not leave until his highness was safe.

Climbing through the rubble was hard. The spaces were incredibly cramped and there were a few places he just barely squeezed through. After what felt like hours, Noctis could just see some slivers of light. His climbing became more frantic but there were no spaces big enough to get through.

“Damn it!” He slammed his fist on the concrete right above him.

Noctis sighed and dropped his head. Can’t go any further until I’m unburied. He took another breath and slowly let it out. Looking up, he breathed in deep and shouted as loud as he could.

“HELP! SOMEONE! I’M DOWN HERE!”

Ignis wiped the sweat from his brow. He, Gladiolus, and the rest of the rescue crew have been digging people out of the rubble for over two hours now and there was still no sign of Noctis. He had hoped to find His Prince by now. Ignis knew that he and Prompto were in the training hall working on hand-to-hand, but he still held hope that Noctis and his friend were not too far down.

A faint noise froze Ignis in his movement.

“Iggy?” Gladiolus asked from his left.

“Shh, I thought I heard something.” Ignis motioned with his hand to still his fellow retainer.

They both stood in silence for a few moments before Ignis heard the sound again.

“Over there! A voice!” Ignis pointed in front of him before carefully running over. Gladiolus and a few others followed.

“HELLO! CAN YOU HEAR ME DOWN THERE?”

“……Iggy……Is that you?” The voice was soft through the rubble but definitely familiar.

“NOCT, IS THAT YOU?”

The crews in earshot gasped.

“…Yeah…I climbed as far as I could…but I’m stuck here.”

“DON’T WORRY. WE’LL GET YOU OUT.”

Gladiolus pushed away some concrete and motioned for the other crew to do the same. Ignis joined the effort. The digging was a little more rushed.

Noctis could hear the people moving above him. He doubted that Ignis heard him when he said that Prompto was further down, but he can tell his advisor when he’s a little closer. He could feel the dust fall on top of him as the light peeking through got stronger.

A crack above him suddenly flooded with light. He flinched a little but was able to wiggle his hand through.

Ignis looked for another piece of concrete he could lift when a slight movement caught his eye. A hand. He knelt by the hand only to find Noctis staring back at him through the crack.

“Noct,” Ignis breathed, “Are you alright?”

Noctis gave a slight cough. “I’m uninjured. But…Prom’s further down. He’s hurt, bad. He…he shielded me from the collapse. He told me to climb out and direct the crews to find him.”

“Alright, we’ll get you out then dig for Prompto.”

“Ok, but I’m not leaving until he’s out.”

Ignis nodded and stood back up. The crew had stopped while he and Noctis were speaking. A look got them moving again. A few more pieces of concrete moved out of the way and Gladiolus was able to pull Noctis from the rubble.

“Are you ok?” The shield rumbled.

“I’m fine, but Prom…”

“We’ll find him, Noct,” Ignis reassured, “Just tell us where to go.”

Prompto’s eyes drooped. He felt like he had been kneeling there for ages. The weight on his back became harder and harder to keep up with his shaking arms and legs. He knew he couldn’t let his arms buckle or lock, or he’d be looking death in the eye. His hands and knees dug into the concrete below him painfully. He wouldn’t be surprised to find them covered in blood by the time he got out.

He was also finding it hard to keep his eyes open. They drooped over and over again as his head fell forward. Sleep sounded so good. Maybe a short nap…

NO! Sleep means that the arms collapse and that means death. Do not fall asleep!

But keeping awake was hard.

Dust fell around him.

“You’re sure he’s around here?”

“I’m positive, Gladio.”

The crew with Ignis and Gladiolus followed Noctis’ directions and started digging where he indicated. They had been digging for nearly half an hour. Gladiolus had a few doubts about his Prince’s word. He raised an eyebrow.

“I’m sure. The spaces I could get through were always on my front right. I retraced my movements from where you pulled me out. We should be almost directly above him.”

Gladiolus sighed. “Ok. We’ll keep digging.”

Sleep was nearly impossible to fight off at this point. Yet Prompto remained awake. His head was about to drop again when something shifted. Somehow, the weight on him got lighter.

“What?” He murmured.

A beam of light cut through the dust almost right in front of him. Prompto stared at it for a while before putting two and two together. Rescue was close.

“Hello? Anyone up there?” he said as loud as he could.

The light cut off as feet suddenly appeared in front of him. Prompto looked as high as possible but couldn’t see the person’s face.

“Prompto?” he heard as the other knelt in front of him.

“Iggy?” Prompto’s voice wavered and wobbled like his arms.

“Yes. We’ve almost got you completely unburied. Just hold on a little longer.”

Ignis’ legs then feet disappeared as he climbed out of the hole. To help with getting me out, I guess? Prompto could feel the weight lessen as more time passed. He thought maybe another ten minutes after Ignis left, a different set of feet appeared. Arms then hooked underneath his shoulders and pulled him forward.

Prompto’s arms hung uselessly and his legs dragged through the dust as whoever removed him from the pocket put their arm under his and pulled him to their chest. Prompto looked up to see his rescuer was Gladiolus.

“Gladio…?”

“Shh, it’s ok. You’re almost free.”

“’m tired.”

“Then sleep. You’ve earned it.”

A week later saw Prompto still recovering in the hospital. The entirety of his back was shredded from the falling concrete. His hands and knees were in a similar state. He sustained a slight concussion from the falling concrete as well. The hospital staff refused to let him leave until his back was healed to the point where he could sleep on his back like normal and raise his arms without pain.

“You know you didn’t have to do that.”

“I know, Noct,” Prompto sighed. They had this conversation before. “I wanted to.”

“Still doesn’t mean you should.”

“And let you die? Not a chance in hell.”

Noctis fell silent at that. He couldn’t argue the point when he would do the same.

“Anything you want?”

“Can you tell me how the bombers are doing in the Marshall’s interrogations?”

Noctis gave his friend a mischievous smile at that.

King Regis ordered a thorough investigation immediately after word of the bombing reached him. He pushed Clarus Amicitia to head the investigation upon hearing that Noctis was also in the building upon its collapse.

Investigators found a group of protestors to be responsible for the bombing. Nearly everyone in the group were brought in for questioning. Marshall Leonis was conducting the interrogations himself. The protestors cracked right away and pointed to a specific person as the instigator. That person went missing from Insomnia the day after the attack.

“They cracked like eggs. Cor is also working on measures to make sure this doesn’t happen again.”

Prompto smiled and went to sleep.

Poor Prom ended up stuck there for about three hours. Noct took about an hour to get to the spot where Gladio pulled him out, Gladio and Ignis took another hour after he got there to actually pull him out, and getting Prompto out took another hour. My dude was so sore. It took a physical therapist nearly a week to get his muscles to fully relax. He also had a hot bath at least once a day for a month.

I also feel like this might feel into the claustrophobia we see in game. I know like it's more likely from the MT pods, but this might've exacerbated the issue.

____________________

For years, Son Goku had been a superhero to many, having helped stop many an evil villain. From bandits to mercenaries to an alien like himself claiming to be a Demon King, Goku had stopped them all.

Well, almost all.

As he passed over West City, he was met with the sounds of screams erupting from down below, as well as alternating flashes of yellow and blue lights. Intent as he was to find the source of the issue, Goku took notice of a familiar friendly face down below, working with the police force.

"Krillin!"

Landing right beside the head of the police force, Goku looked down to his friend. "What's happening?"

"It's Vegeta!" Krillin exclaimed, pointing towards the direction the flashing lights were coming from. "He's terrorizing the city again! I've got my men evacuating citizens and aiding the injured, but none of us can get close to Vegeta!"

Goku frowned and nodded. "Leave that to me." With that, Goku flew up and towards the direction of the flashing lights.

Vegeta... Goku had fought him for years. The two were from the same planet coincidentally, but whereas Goku had been sent to Earth as a child and grew up among its people, Vegeta had arrived several years ago, claiming that he, as prince of their home planet, would rule this world. It was then that Goku learned of the destruction of not just their home planet, but nearly its entire population by a being named Frieza, and that while Vegeta had taken his revenge and killed Frieza, he still expected to rule something.

Unluckily for Goku, he chose Earth.

Vegeta was bent on world domination, intent on bringing the Earth and its people to their knees, and ruling them all. He'd murdered and taken hostages and threatened thousands, but ultimately, he usually used brute force to try and get his way.

Which, Goku noted, was what he was doing right now. Those blue and yellow lights were him rampaging in West City, firing off his two best energy based techniques: Big Bang Attack and Final Flash, respectively. As Goku flew to find him, he took note of the craters and destroyed buildings left in Vegeta's path, of people who hadn't been killed by his rampage crying out for help. Goku quickly did what he could to save as many as possible, trying to ease the job of first responders and Krillin's men. Though as he was saving a young boy and his mother from the inside of a collapsing building, he spotted Vegeta, charging a Big Bang Attack at a group of civilians.

Quickly putting the young boy and his mother down, Goku raced to Vegeta and the civilians, making it just in time as Vegeta fired off his Big Bang Attack, Goku managing to knock the energy blast up in the air to avoid hitting the people behind him, and sending a basic blast of his own to collide with Vegeta's high in the air, causing it to explode there where no one could get hurt.

"Go, get to safety!" Goku cried out to the people he was shielding, them all nodding and running away.

Vegeta scoffed. "Well, I don't mind a moving target..." With that he fired several basic energy blasts at the fleeing civilians, a dark smirk on his face as he did so. But Goku was quick on the draw again, and shielded them all by taking the multiple hits himself.

Goku panted slightly, his clothes slightly tattered and torn from Vegeta's blasts. "You won't be taking anymore lives, Vegeta. Not while I'm here."

Vegeta cursed under his breath upon seeing Goku take each and every one of the basic energy blasts he'd expelled, but at Goku's words, merely chuckled. "Is that so, Kakarott?" Goku's eyes darted around him at the utterance of his birth name, making sure no one heard it. Vegeta was the only one that used it, despite Goku having changed his name when he arrived on Earth. Why, Goku never understood.

"This ends today." Goku took an offensive stance. "I won't let you hurt anyone else."

"Tch," Vegeta mimicked Goku's decision, getting into a fighting stance himself. "You hero-types make me sick." The moment he was done speaking, Vegeta rushed Goku, attempting to land a punch to his face, but was ultimately blocked by Goku's arms crossing in an 'X' shape. With a scowl, Vegeta then ducked low and swept his leg under Goku's, causing the taller man to fall backwards, or so it seemed. Goku caught himself with his hands, it looking like he was going to backflip to either stabilize himself or gain some distance, but instead, as his legs flew up, he reared back a leg and kicked Vegeta with much force under his chin.

Vegeta was knocked back into the side of a building, causing a crater to appear in the side of it. Goku did end up stabilizing himself, but as he took notice of the crater left my the impact of his kick, he mentally chided himself. He was supposed to be helping protect the city, not aiding Vegeta in destroying it! That meant retaliating with his own energy blasts were out of the question. But that was fine, Goku preferred the close up contact of physical combat anyway.

It didn't take Vegeta long at all to emerge from the wall crater, scowling as he cracked his neck, piercing eyes focused on Goku. Goku watched as Vegeta wiped a bit of blood from the corner of his mouth using the side of his fist, looking down at the red smudge on his glove. "That's the only hit you'll be making on me today, Kakarott."

"We'll see about that!" Simultaneously, the two flew into the air and rushed each other, the fight a flurry of thrown punches and skillful dodging, the same song and dance most of their fights devolved into. Not that Goku was complaining, it was quite the opposite. As much as he disliked Vegeta's view of Earth, about how he needed to dominate it, he respected the natural born fighter the villain turned out to be. He was a challenge, a man not to be taken lightly.

Around them, people were still trying to get to safety, a few stopping awestruck at seeing their hero - Son Goku - in action right in front of them.

These people caught Goku's attention for the briefest second, as he wondered what the heck they were doing just standing there, when he suddenly heard, "Eyes on me!" followed by a sharp pain blistering in his chest, knocking the wind out of him momentarily, and sending him flying downwards into the concrete, leaving another crater on impact.

As Vegeta slowly hovered down to the ground, Krillin and his men arrived, some aiding the civilians, others hunkering down behind cars and large bits of rubble defensively, surrounding Goku and Vegeta in a large, wide circle.

"You're surrounded!" Krillin spoke, his gaze meeting Vegeta's. He swallowed harshly under the villain's malicious gaze, but continued speaking. "Give in!" At that, the members of the police force who had surrounded Vegeta and Goku raised their weapons, and pointed them straight at Vegeta.

"Pathetic." Vegeta raised a palm in Krillin's direction, blue energy beginning to gather there. His attention was no longer on Goku, who was pulling himself up. Upon seeing the sight of Vegeta getting ready to kill Krillin, Goku growled and lunged for Vegeta, being careful to restrain himself as they were still on city grounds, where people could get hurt. With a yell of rising power, Goku focused his energy into a single punch, his fist connecting with Vegeta's stomach. The shorter male coughed up spit upon impact, and the energy he'd been gathering disappeared. While he was hindered, Goku wrapped his arms around Vegeta's waist and flew them both upwards, toward the sky, where the two of them could fight without endangering the people and city below them.

The elbow he received to the side of the head forced him to change trajectory.

With a harsh thud!, the duo crash landed onto the rooftop of the tallest building in the city, Goku and Vegeta rolling to a halt against the concrete. Gritting their teeth, they both rose to their feet and charged for each other, hands colliding with one another as the two made contact. They were both panting, struggling to force the other man down. Their hands were locked in a power struggle, Goku looking down at Vegeta as he spoke. "That's enough, Vegeta!" He gripped the shorter man's hands tighter, only to seethe as Vegeta returned the action. "It's over."

"On the contrary, Kakarott," Vegeta said between pants, sweat dripping from his brow, "I'm just getting started." With that, Vegeta reared his head back, and swung it towards Goku, intent on knocking him backwards, but unfortunately for him, Goku saw the move coming, and mimicked Vegeta, the blunt force of their head strikes connecting with each other, a boom! of wind resulting from the impact. Both men grit their teeth as pain blossomed throughout their heads, though neither male pulled their heads away, instead keeping their foreheads together, despite the blooming pain they both felt from their impact. One of them was bleeding from the head, they realized, as blood mixed with sweat trickled down each of their faces.

Still they were panting, and neither one of them was backing down from the struggle. Their faces were so close together, their noses barely touching, one practically breathing the other's air. Goku knew he had to end this fast, if not to bring Vegeta down, than to protect the people of the city below, to give Krillin and his police force time to evacuate the injured, to--

Goku's mind stopped processing things almost instantly.

The feeling of slightly wet but still somewhat chapped lips pressed against his own set his mind into frizz, the majority of his body acting on its on accord still fighting against Vegeta, but Goku's face... he was frozen. His eyes were widened in disbelief, and his jaw went somewhat slack, his lips parting of their own accord, which gave Vegeta all the room he need to slip his tongue into Goku's mouth. Goku's first thought that snapped back into his mind at that was that Vegeta tasted like blood, but also somehow tasted both sweet and bitter, like coffee with some added creamer. (Do villains even do something as casual as make morning coffee? Goku couldn't help but wonder.) Goku shook off the thought, and instead thought to bite down on Vegeta's tongue, to stop this, this... whatever this was he was trying to pull!

But when he went to search Vegeta's eyes for an answer, he saw nothing. Vegeta had closed his eyes. This itself had startled Goku, as Vegeta had never before purposefully taken his eyes off an opponent. This left him exposed, Goku could knee him in the gut and he'd never see it coming. This was it, this was the advantage Goku had needed in this fight!

...So why wasn't he taking that advantage?

His body was slowly giving up the fight against Vegeta, but he realized, Vegeta was slowly giving up the fight too. The pressure forced by their power struggle was easing into nothing, their arms lowering of their own accord, but their hands still remaining conjoined.

Vegeta's tongue mapped out every inch of Goku's mouth, until he turned his attention to Goku's own tongue, prodding it expectantly. When Goku failed to respond in any way, Vegeta pulled away from Goku, the taller male suddenly missing the feeling of Vegeta's lips against his own, the bittersweet taste of bloodied creamed coffee. Vegeta opened his eyes, usually piercing black eyes seeming less volatile than Goku remembered them.

"Are you going to kiss me, or not?"

Before Goku could respond, Vegeta moved his hands, one gloved hand harshly grabbing Goku's jaw and pulling him down some, the other burying itself in Goku's hair at the back of his head. As Vegeta mashed their lips together with more intensity this time, Goku's now free hands instinctively planted themselves at different spots: One hand at Vegeta's midback, the other on a shoulder.

What was he doing? His body moved of its own accord, pulling Vegeta closer to him and he hesitantly kissed Vegeta back, not fully processing what the hell was going on right now. But as his tongue slid against Vegeta's, and Vegeta's hand at his jaw softened its grip, Goku came to a realization.

Oh.

He liked this.

Goku would have been lying if he'd said there hadn't been something inside him building up towards Vegeta for all the years they'd fought. He'd assumed it was some form of respect for Vegeta as a fighter, as a rival, maybe even as a fellow Saiyan, as something... But this? This hadn't sort of something hadn't crossed Goku's mind at all, and frankly, why should it have?

But now that he was here, tracing the inside of his nemesis's mouth with his own tongue, he was feeling bolder, more confident. Why hadn't this crossed his mind before? His hands gripped Vegeta a little tighter, kissed him a little harder, fighting back a chuckle at Vegeta's taken aback grunt towards his boldness. If Goku hadn't have known Vegeta as well as he did, he would have been surprised when Vegeta resumed his tight grip on Goku's jaw, would have yelped in protest as Vegeta dug his fingers into his scalp, would have been scared off when Vegeta glared at him and bit at his lower lip as if in retaliation to Goku's confidence, as if to silently say, 'Who do you think you are?'

Goku broke off the kiss at the nip, biting back a noise of indigence, but also giving him and Vegeta well-needed room to breathe. There was a fog slowly beginning to cloud his mind, replacing the frizz that he'd initially had been shocked by. Goku shook his head slightly, knowing he needed to get his head on straight! What was he doing!? He was supposed to take Vegeta out, not... not make-out! But as Goku's eyes met Vegeta's, he tensed, seeing a want for more in his gaze. The sight of Vegeta's slightly parted, somewhat reddened lips as he gazed at Goku with lidded eyes laced with want was an image Goku knew he'd never get out of his head.

And frankly? He was completely ok with that.

Goku was quick to dive in for another kiss, and Vegeta was more than willing to oblige, the two beginning to heatedly make out once more. There was a different power struggle now, akin to the one from mere moments - was it really moments? if felt like hours - ago, as Vegeta and Goku kissed each other fervently, trying to outdo the other in this new kind of battle. Hands grasped at each other for some sort of purchase, feeling all over the other's body, with the silent mutual exception of their waists, where their tails lied curled. The small of Vegeta's back, Goku's broad shoulders, Vegeta's toned chest, Goku's strong hips, Vegeta's built arms, Goku's ass--

A yelp left Goku as a hand squeezed his buttocks, and he pulled away from the kiss, pouting somewhat as Vegeta chuckled, his expression dusted with mirth.

"Not fair, Vegeta."

Vegeta gave a 'hmph!' in amusement, before leaning upwards and murmuring against Goku's lips, "All's fair in love and war, Kakarott."

So which was this? Goku wondered. Love? Or war?

Before he would question it any further, Vegeta was kissing him again, Goku finding it nigh impossible to resist the spell, the temptation of Vegeta's mouth against his. Goku was finally getting used to Vegeta's voracious style of kissing, when Vegeta's tongue swirled around Goku's, only to suck on it a second later. The groan that left Goku was damn near shameful, and he could feel the corners of Vegeta's lips curl up in a smile. For a moment, he wondered what that would feel like on another part of his bod-- what was he thinking?!

Banging on the rooftop door forced the duo to break the kiss, both men looking towards the door.

"Goku?!" Came Krillin's voice. "Goku, we're here for backup! Alright guys, knock the door down!"

Goku paled. Oh god, if the police force was to see them like this...!

"Tch, damn it." Vegeta sneered at the door, glaring daggers into it. "Fine then, we'll end this here for now." With that, a hand went to Goku's shoulder, the other to the back of Goku's head, and before the taller male could process what Vegeta was doing, Vegeta proceeded to knee Goku in the gut.

A yell of pain escaped the hero, hands going to clutch at his stomach as he slunk to his knees, coughing up spit as he did so. He watched with slightly blurred vision as Vegeta began walking to the edge of the roof, his vision clearing as Vegeta rubbed a gloved thumb over his own lips as he spoke.

"Come and find me, Kakarott."

With that, Vegeta flew off at high speed into the distance, disappearing from sight just as the police force knocked down the rooftop door. "Goku!" Krillin was quick to race to Goku's side, helping him rise to his feet. "Goku, are you alright?"

"I'm fine, Krillin." Goku assured through a pained smile, one of his hands going to rest on Krillin's shoulder. Though the moment he was done speaking, he looked out towards where Vegeta flew. Vegeta's words echoed in his head, but were they a promise of more to come? Or a threat if some sort?

As the rest of the police force began to surround Goku and Krillin, Krillin followed Goku's gaze and frowned. "That's the direction he headed off in?" Krillin looked over Goku, seething slightly. "You're beat up pretty badly, buddy. What do you plan on doing?"

Without missing a beat, Goku replied, "I'm going to find him."
