Th Queen of Hearts- Kyojuro Rengoku x Reader WIP

Another new WIP tease by Witch? Yup, it sure is! I know I have more WIPS going than anyone ever should, but I just can't help it. I have severe ADHD and an overly active imagination!

This scene snippet comes from one of my multi chapter fics I am working on. This one is called 'The Queen of Hearts." I dreamed about this scene so I had to write it out as soon as I woke up before I could forget it lol.

A Little big of background for this scene: This is a modern era AU. It is a Kyojuro Rengoku x Y/N story. Y/N is the adopted daughter of Yoriichi Tsugikuni. The Tsugikuni family are the 2nd most powerful family in the organization, directly under the Ubuyashiki family. In this story there are 3 Tsugikuni brothers. Kokushibo is the eldest, Yoriichi and Michikatsu are still twins. Shinobu, and Kanae are the daughers of Tamayo/Kokushibo. Muichiro/Yuichiro are the sons of Michikatsu. The Demon Slayer Corps operate out of a multi level underground facility with living quarters and more. If you prefer to read on AO3, click here !

CW: violence (this is a snippet of one of the major fights), language, angst

Y/N burst through the front door of the Rengoku residence in the Hive with no knock, no warning. The alarms began to sound in the background. She had to get them out of there and fast. Not only were Ruka and Senjuro important to her, it was her duty to her beloved to make sure his family was safe. She needed them to evacuate with the others, needed to know they were far away from this battle. She was needed in the main fight which meant no one would here to protect them.

Kyojuro and Shinjuro were on a mission with her father, Yoriichi, her Uncle Kokushibo, and several of the other Hashira. The bastard Betrayer had waited patiently for the perfect time to strike. He used his insider knowledge to the advantage of their enemies and was willingly... happily spilling the blood of his unsuspecting former allies.

“Oni-chan!” Senjuro called, startled, running towards Y/N. “Listen to me, Senjuro,” she said, grabbing his shoulders and kneeling quickly. “You and your mother need to use the secret passage to get out of here. Kanae, Shinobu and the others are working on evacuating the other families. Do you remember the way we sometimes sneak out to stargaze when your brother is away?” He nodded, his big eyes even larger than normal and wide with fear. “Y-Yes.”

“Good. Get your mother and take that route. Not even my cousins know it. Your brother and I found that tunnel on accident as children, it is the safest route. You must go, immediately. When you get out of the Hive, call your brother. They have jammed our signals inside.”

“But Oni-chan-”

“No buts, Senjuro.”

“What on earth is going on?” Ruka asked as she came into the room drying her hands on a towel. 

Y/N gave Senjuro a tight hug before standing and turning to face his mother, delivering the grave news herself to the woman who was like a mother to her, and someday would be her mother in law. If she lived through this night. 

“Michikatsu has attacked with Muzan’s support,” Y/N told her, feeling the horror in her heart reflected on Ruka’s face. “Senjuro and you need to leave immediately. You will go through Kyojuro and my secret passage. Please, Ruka, do not argue. Losing the 2 of you would devastate me, my father, Kyojuro and Shinjuro please so many others.” 

Y/N moved to pull Ruka into a tight hug which the woman immediately returned without hesitation like she always had.  Y/N  pulled back and placed her hands on the older woman’s shoulders. “The Ubuyashikis have already been evacuated, with Shinobu, Gyomei, and several other corps members as their protection. I have given Mitsuri and Obanai directions to where the tunnel comes out and they will meet you there with Tamayo, the twins and the other young ones. They will help get you to one of the safe houses and stay as protection. He should have no reason to go after you all, but we need to know you are safe.”

“You are separating your family from each other? What about Kanae? And who will stay to fight with you?”

Y/N appreciated Ruka’s concern but she could hear the battle raging on the other side of that door. She answered the questions as quickly and thoroughly as she could given the situation. “Kuwajima, Urokodaki, Masachika, Kanae, the Uzuii ladies and I will stay to fight along with the Slayers. Separating our family is the best strategy. At least one of us Tsugikuni girls and those twins have to survive. As the youngest female child, she will have the least value to Michikatsu. He is least likely to chase her. Additionally, Shinobu is a skilled swordswoman in her own right and will also assist with the protection of the Master and his family. Please, go. Hurry. Call Kyojuro once you are out of the Hive and enroute to the safe house.”

“Be careful, " Ruka said, her face settling into it's familiar calm.

Y/N gave them both a smile, taking them in one more time. Just in case this was the last time she saw them or they saw her. “Get going. I love you both. I will see you soon!”

And with that she raced from their residence and joined the fray outside. She was the daughter of the man who was considered to be the greatest swordsman to ever live. He had trained her personally. Trained her in the art of swords and in what it means to be a Tsugikuniin the Hive. They were the 2nd most important family in the colony and the history of the Hive and the Corps. The Ubuyashiki were not only the face of the organization, they were the founding family and the heart of it all. Every single person here was sworn allegiance to them. The Tsugikuni family handled the business portion and the overseeing of the Corps members - training, discipline, instructions, and more. 

Y/N knew that now was when she needed to step up and be a leader. Be the person that inspired and directed the slayers. As long as the Ubuyashiki kids and Amane escaped… As long as the Ubuyashiki family live on, there was hope for the Hive and its Corps. She had no wish to die, but she would not die lying down. She would fight until her last breath. She was the daughter of Yoriichi Tsugikuni after all. 

Y/N took out the demon scum and defectors as she went. She had bigger fish to fry and that meant she was not above shoving them over the guardrails  to crash into the floor many stories below, splattering their worthless remains on the floor. 

She saw Kanae being overwhelmed and ran to help. Her cousin was an amazing swordswoman, but even they could get in bad situations. Her heart was racing but she worked to keep her calm. Her cousin and her people needed her calm. 

Suddenly she felt an incredibly powerful presence behind her and her long hair was grabbed in a tight fist, yanking her back harshly enough to make her grunt. She refused to cry out. She would not give this bastard betrayer the satisfaction. 

“Well, well, well. If it is not the little princess I was looking for,” Michikatsu’s voice reached her ears. She could hear the smirk in his voice and it bothered her on a soul deep level.

“Uncle Katsu, what is the meaning of this?” She asked, straining against his grip.

He ripped her sword from her hand, seemingly breaking several of her fingers in the process and began to walk, not bothering to stop or slow down when she tripped and fell to her knees. He dragged her with him, ignoring the feel of her nails digging into his flesh and clawing at them. His fist was knotted in her long hair close to her scalp intentionally so she was unable to just cut her hair to free herself. 

“I am taking what should have been mine from the start. You and the others are in my way.”

“And your twins?” Y/N mentioned his 14 year old boys, her baby cousins almost 6 years younger than her. “What about Muichiro and Yuichiro’s future? Their lives?”

He let out a sadistic laugh. “If they die, it is of no consequence to me. I am a demon now, I do not fear a mortal death.”

“And Hitori?” Y/N mentioned his wife.

“I killed her already. She no longer had a purpose.”

Y/N saw red and started fighting against her uncle even harder. He yanked her to her knees with the hand still fisted in her hair and slapped her across the face. She glared into his eyes, a menacing looking behind her own glare.

“I cannot wait for my sword to taste your blood, you fucking bastard!”

“Such language just proves you are not suitable to be an heir,” Michikatsu sneered, bending down and getting into her face. “You shouldn’t be an heir anyways. You are just a piece of trash my brother adopted out of pity and a misplaced sense of duty from your pathetic mother begging him with her last words. No one ever wanted you or would have chosen you.”

Y/N’s hand was able to grip the hidden Nichirin switchblade she kept in her boot for emergencies. She would not go down without a fight, she repeated to herself. She would not let his poisonous words into her heart nor allow them to influence her in any. 

“You are wrong! While my father may not have chosen to end up with me that fateful night 15 years ago, he chose to keep me and raise me and love me” 

She moved quickly, shoving her knife up into his jugular. She knew it wouldn’t be enough to kill him, but she hoped it would be enough to break his hold. 

Such was not her luck as he yanked the blade free, sputtering as he tossed it, his blood falling on both of them, before he instantly closed the wound. If the 6 eyes decorating his face, with Number One engraved in his  middle eyes, were not enough to show her the truth of his betrayal, being able to heal his wounds cemented in her mind that he was in fact now a demon. 

Michikatsu’s nails grew into sharp talons, drawing his hand back to swipe down. He glared down at her with a menacing look on his face and a purely sadistic smile that reflected in his eyes. “I don’t need you alive to show the corps you have fallen. I wanted to kill you while those idiots who adore you watched, but I can easily change my plans into displaying your dead, worthless body. Maybe even just your decapitated head."

Before he could reach her with the killing blow, a blast from a shotgun rang out. The person behind the gun having expert enough aim to shoot through both of her uncle’s wrists with one shot. Her uncle’s hands separated from his body, giving Y/N the chance to scuttle backwards, yanking his severed hand from her hair. She looked up, seeing Genya standing several levels above aiming over the guard railing.

“Get out of here,  Y/N!!” He yelled, fear etched into his face before he disappeared, rejoining the fray.

She appreciated his assistance, but she would not back down from this fight. She found her discarded sword not far from where they stood,  getting to her feet and assuming the stance her father and Kyojuro had taught her, sucking in air and entering what athletes called the zone, Total Concentration. 

Y/N steeled her spine and narrowed her eyes. She held her head high as she faced her uncle who now assumed a similar stance with his own blade drawn. He was as legendary of a swordsmen as her father was, but she refused to let that intimidate her.  She refused to let him intimidate her.

Her loved ones had called her Princess since she was little, a term of endearment she had never even once minded. Today, she held it even closer to her heart. Through the blazing fires of betrayal, like a phoenix rising, she was renewed.  As of today, a queen was born. 

[imkazz]

due to the restraining order the most probable last time that sanemi and genya interacted before the final battle would likely be when he tried to blind his younger brother

[nerosdayinanime]

[smiletimeisrunningout]

also real quick i read the first book of shadow and bone and i need someone to write a darkling who is actually who he pretends to be and it's Baghra who lied? I am so fascinated by the idea of THAT character being real (and also dealing with Emma who is such a well-meaning chaotic person)

[mamayan]

Psp psp 👀 genya thirsts please? 🤲

Nonnie I’m literally full of them of course— I personally see Genya as a switch so we’ll be playing around with that here (even though I adore him as a submissive too).

Genya Shinazugawa Thirsts ★彡

cw: NSFW • Fluff • Genya HC • A lil angst • GN! Reader • Praise Kink • Suggestive Themes • Oral mentioned • Switch! Genya (not really Dom, more pleasure top at best tbh) • Slightly Top!/Switch! Reader

Genya isn’t shy in the traditional sense. He’s not afraid of being the one to confess his love first, or even being rejected.

Problem is, he expects to be rejected. He’s understanding of it even. His own perception of self worth revolves around his ability to be useful, and while he’s proud to call himself a Demon Slayer, he finds himself lacking as a man a lot of the time.

He looks up to Sanemi and adores him a great deal, but doesn’t use him as a role model for love and expressing it. Instead he looks at Gyomei, a gentle and pious man who gives advice like “write a love poem from the depths of your heart.”

So when Genya confesses and he’s not rejected? He’s the sort to follow advice given to the letter, which makes for comically awkward and tender approaches.

Genya will present you with flowers, carefully arranged, but he knows nothing of flowers, so you’ll be sneezing immediately. They’re super pollen filled and smell obnoxious, but your heart will be full from the thought and effort alone. He apologizes profusely. Then will come the love letters, but as a Shinazugawa, the words of love will boarder on threats. “My heart burns when I see you, so much love fills me that I feel it may be the end for me in your presence.” You’ll wonder if he’s joking or has a heart condition. He knows he’s got a mean and scary looking face, many have told him so, and to remedy that… he will even wear makeup to make himself look less scary! (This may have been pointed out by Inosuke, his heart in the right place but the end results more for humor than anything). It’s too late by the time Tanjiro comes to rescue his friend, you’re in tears laughing at the clown his friends turned him into. It works on making him less scary to you though—

He’ll relax eventually, but he’s stiff and terrified of making even the smallest mistake… and the end result of that is making tons of mistakes. Once he realizes he can truly be himself, he’s the sweetest most devoted man you could ask for. He’s less prickly than his older brother, more ready to fall head first into the love jar with you. He’s a sap, truly seeing you as an angel who can do no wrong.

When it comes to being physical, he loves pda. Except, he likes it most when you show it. He’s constantly being rejected publicly or privately by his dearest elder brother, so when you show claim over him? It makes him ecstatic! Throw an arm around his waist, hold his hand, hug him, kiss him even. Show the world he belongs to you. It makes him melt into a puddle. He’ll even get a little smug if you do it in front of his friends, smirking even as his face goes molten red. He’ll pass away if you sit on his lap though, be careful of his weak heart. Tough exterior doesn’t translate to inside unfortunately.

Genya is a gentleman despite his rough appearance, he’s waiting on you to make all the first moves. He’s asking permission and consent constantly thereafter, and he’s very keen on your body language. You’ll have to ignore his body language when he tells you to, because despite his wishes he tenses up and freezes sometimes when he gets embarrassed. It takes a little for him to relax after that happens, just keep kissing him please, he’ll beg if he has to.

That’s how it’s like with deeper intimacy too, Genya becomes whiny and shy, stuttering and a bit foolish. He’s just desperate for you, make no mistake about it. He’s got good control though, holding still when you tell him, being very good for you. Use him for your pleasure, he really does insist. Genya’s favorite positions are any he can see you in, more specifically when you ride him.

He derives pleasure from you being pleased, so with oral he prefers to give rather than receive. Not that he doesn’t like receiving, your mouth on his cock leaves him a drooling mess, but Genya can find his end just by giving you head. Hearing you moan and cry for him makes him delirious with happiness, so use his Mohawk like a handle and hold on tight.

While Genya is giver, he does have a few triggers which set off a more dominant side of him. He can’t help himself honestly… usually it’s jealously. If someone else is flirting with you it riles him up. He gets more brash and mean, not towards you of course, but he does try and fight them quite readily. It leaves him insecure after too, afraid you’ll see his flaws and weakness and leave him.

So when you don’t, and when you comfort him, he just needs you.

Whining into your mouth how much he loves you, all while his hips pound you into the bed and you cum again. He’s fucking you stupid and not even on purpose, he’s just overcome with emotion he needs to let out, and what better way than to make love to you? Even if that love making turns into a sloppy fucking with your cute face pressed down and hips yanked high so he can kiss you inside a little deeper. He’s crying your name while he fills you up, and he really can’t help how his cock stays hard even after, thrusting again inside you soon after while you mewl and try to crawl away from all the pleasure and overstimulation.

He’s yanking you easily back onto his cock, head thrown back as he mindlessly babbles praises for you. “Ah fuck—so good on my cock, make me feel so fuckin’ good—l-love you, I love you—!” You’re too fucked out to do much else but cum for him, eyes watery and helpless as he shows you how much he loves you. Enjoy the stamina of Genya Shinazugawa, he’s got endless energy. He’ll fuck you till he’s shooting blanks.

He’s so sweet after too, kissing and holding you, profusely apologizing of course because you passed out eventually, and thanking you too for making him feel so good. He’s running around heating up a bath, bringing you sweets or whatever you crave. He goes right back to your sweet ‘Nya once he’s secure in his heart again.

Feel free to take revenge after too. He won’t admit it until he’s denied his fourth or fifth orgasm, but he adores when you take charge and top him. Play away to your heart’s desire, Genya is able to take all you give him, like the good boy he is. Panting like a dog after you curb his orgasm again, his body tied up and spread for you to do whatever you please. He’ll cry, sob even, for release. Begging his master for mercy, while you coo and tease him. “Poor puppy, what’s wrong hm? I thought you loved everything I do.” You have him there, because he’ll admit his deepest secrets like this. “I-I do! I love it! T-tease me more, please, master, m-make a mess of me,” he’s adorable like this, obedient and cute all for you. He’ll probably want to die a little if you just leave him like that too, but he’s so cute, you’ll find it hard to just walk away— unless it’s a punishment of course.

Genya is open to most any kink you might have… as long as it doesn’t hurt you. He’s fine if the pain is directed at him, he can take it after all, but he won’t do any breath play, no tight bondage, no whips or chains for you unless you’re the one wielding them, and of course no sharing you. Genya would rather tear someone’s eyes out and light them on fire than let them even see you naked. It makes him feral and enraged immediately. However, the thought of being seen with you doing something to him, makes him wildly aroused.

Genya would never bring it up in a regular conversation, but he’s got a small exhibition kink. If he were the one to been seen tied up and naked with you playing with him? He may just cum immediately. It ties into you claiming him too, showing how much he is to you, who he belongs to.

Genya also has a praise kink. It works both ways too, he wants to be praised and praise you too. “Such a good boy Genya, my sweet love, filling me up so good,” his eyes are rolling back, hips stuttering as he begs to cum. “Y-you feel so good—fuck, tight—wanna be inside you forever, feel you wrapped a-around my cock like this till I die—!” He’s losing control when you cum.

Overall Genya is a top tier lover and golden find. He’s loyal, devoted, and filled with adoration to shower on you.

Hello! I was reading your work and I thought they were pretty interesting! Also, I was wondering if you could do one with Gyomei and the reader where they're a bit suicidal?? It's okay if you don't do these kinds of requests and I completely understand! Looking forward to more of your works!

Omg of course! I love the big old cuddly bear Gyomei! Also if you ever want to talk my message are open okay? I hope you are doing well 🌸

It’s short but I hope you like it🌸

Gyomei x Suicidal!reader

There’s a small spoiler of Gyomeis past! 

Y/N groans as they open their eyes, the sun is already high in the sky, shinning in and ruining their peaceful sleep. Y/N looks over to the other futon and relaxes when they realize that Gyomei isn’t there ‘today is the hashira meeting’ they sign to themself. Waking up was always the worst, it’s been getting harder to pull themself out of bed, everyday the dread of waking up setting in.

It’s hard to date someone like Gyomei, people talk and judge you for being with someone as strong as the stone hashira. He was amazing in every way possible but Y/N stubbornly kept this side of them away from their partner. Sitting up sighing as they pulled themself together enough to get out of the futon to go to the bath room. Gyomeis been on missions or with his student, Genya so he hasn’t been home. they haven’t been out of bed along enough to bathe. hell they wouldn’t has eaten if it wasn’t for Genya occasionally cooking while Gyomei was away. Y/N warms the water before they started to strip off their clothing, running hands down their body as disgust fills their heart.

‘Why does he love me’

Sighing they began to clean themself then getting into the wash tub, the only part that makes this whole process seem worth it to just sit in here until the water turns cold.

Tears fell from their eyes when the thoughts came through the fog

‘you don’t deserve him’ ‘worthless’

‘You’re weak’ ‘you’re ugly’

Y/N grip their head in their hands pulling on their hair making their scalp burn while hot tears stream down their redden cheeks. “shut up!” Y/N screams

Jumping up they run out to quickly dry off and dress before running out of the stone estate barefoot “Hey! Y/N what’s wrong?” They hear a voice yell in the distance but not caring to stop they keep going through the woods. Rocks tear into their feet as they run faster until they come to an abrupt halt at a cliff and waterfall, Gyomeis training ground but he’s at the hashira meeting so he wouldn’t come to their rescue even if he wanted too. Sitting on the edge, more tears falling from their eyes. 

“I’m sorry my love” they say before sliding off the edge, closing their eyes and waiting for the impact of their sweet release but the feeling was cut short when they felt abnormally muscular arms wrap around them. Eyes shooting open they were greeted with a very distraught Gyomei, tears flowing freely from his while orbs. He holds them tightly against his chest has he lands firmly on the ground, gyomei holds them firmly but didn’t say a word as he begins to walk back through the woods.

Guilt taking its hold the only thing they could ask is “how?” Silence fills the heavy air between them before he finally spoke “Genya was worried so he interrupted the meeting. He is being effectively chewed out by Shinazugawa right now, the next time you see him you should apologize” Gyomei explained

Tears well up again and they buries their head in Gyomeis muscular chest as they apologizes repeatedly “please Gyomei I’m sorry! Please don’t leave me!” They cry

Gyomei abruptly stops walking “why in the world would I leave you?” He asks as his voice breaks

“I don’t deserve you and then I go and cause all this trouble for everyone!” Y/N screams into his chest but abruptly stops when they feel something wet drop onto their head, looking up at the man they realize he was crying. It wasn’t unusual to see the stone hashira cry but this felt different, it felt real and the guilt again took hold making their stomach turn. 

“you are the most important thing to me” he started before taking a deep breath and continuing “you are important and you are loved. I regret not sensing this sooner. I apologize” Gyomei starts walking

It didn’t take long before they were walking into stone estate, Gyomei takes them to their bed room before gently dropping Y/N on his futon “I’ll go get something to clean you up” he says before walking out and leaving them alone.

But that was short lived as he quickly came back “let me see” he joked as he lifted Y/N’s feet to clean off the dirt and blood before applying medicine and wrapping them up.

Gyomei was silent for a moment before he spoke again “I promise we will get through this together. You are not alone and I will protect you from everything”

Gyomeis voice breaks as he spoke “I failed to protect those children long ago but I promise I won’t let anything happen to you”

Y/N throws their arms around Gyomeis large frame “I’m sorry Gyomei. I promise to tell you my feelings from not on” they cry

“I love you”

“I love you too”

Gyomei lays them both back on the futon, he puts Y/N on his solid chest as he runs his hands across their back, in comfortable silence they both drifted off to sleep in each others arms. 

The next morning Y/N wakes up still on Gyomeis chest when they look up he was already awake “morning my love” he smiles at them, getting off of him she replies “morning Gyomei”

“how are you feeling? “

Y/N thinks for a moment before replaying “a little drained, but I’m all right and starving! “

Gyomei laughed “then let’s go get you something to eat” 

Hand in hand they walk through the estate talking about everything that’s been going on the days they were apart when the two reach the kitchen Genya was already there cooking a meal for the three of them “Genya!” Y/N runs up to him and wraps their arms around him making the man tense up unsure what to do but Y/N quickly pulls away “I’m sorry for all the trouble I caused you. I heard you were reprimanded by your older brother. Are you okay? “ Y/N asks looking over him for wounds but Genya nods “ aniki won’t seriously hurt me but I’m just glad you are okay” Genya replies and Y/N nods happily and jokes “we are just like a family” Genya blushes deeply and Gyomei let out a deep laugh “don’t let Shinazuawa hear you say that. I’ll never hear the end of it” Gyomei says. 

Gyomei smiles ‘a family, I think I like the sound of that’ he thinks before walking over to the other two, pulling Y/N to his side and patting Genya head “let’s eat” he says making them smile.

Genya with a small fem s/o? 👀

oh bestie … 👀

genya would be super protective (both if you’re a slayer or not), he doesn’t want people to take advantage of you.

he loves messing with you, and sometimes would purposely say “have you guys seen y/n?” or “i can’t hear you from up here.”

genya rests his chin on your head all the time, while hugging you from behind. he loves seeing how small you are compared to him.

puts things where you can’t reach em easily so he can come to the rescue !! “gotcha baby,” and then kisses your forehead.

piggybacks. he just loves carrying you.

genya goes crazy when to kiss him you have to grab his shoulders and stand on your tiptoe, and sometimes he would purposely stand tall and watch you struggle.

“genya!” you whine, pouting at him. “i’m gonna be late,” you try to pull him towards you but it’s useless. “alright, alright,” when he finally gives in, it’s almost impossible to break from the kiss.

the way his big hands cup your cheeks, caressing your skin gently. when he kisses your nose and forehead, smiling at you.

it’s amazing because then when he talks to others he’s somehow … barking at them. everyone can see how he changes whenever you are around him.

tokito muichiro 

is a proleague player for fps games and plays osu (stereotype)

didn’t even mean to become a pro player, he happened to kill a popular pro player on stream who was baffled by his skill and got him signed

sometimes streams with handcam, rarely with facecam 

doesn’t really talk much unless he’s replying to his chat, but even then it’s very short and sweet

there are long silences in his streams and he rarely ever gets upset at the game

sometimes he collabs with his friends and plays casual games like chained together, roblox horror games; his viewers note that he’s more amiable during collabs

he once had yuichiro stream for him instead and no one noticed until yuichiro raged and cussed someone out in-game 

has a clip where he once broke a combo in osu right at the end and spent 5 minutes with his head in his heads 

mitsuri kanroji

super popular streamer! alternates with a vtuber model and facecam

does cooking streams, just chatting streams and occasionally outdoor streams

loves chatting with her viewers about everything and anything 

everyone loves her for her bright personality and cute looks

doesn’t really play games unless other streamers invite her (because she’s bad at using a keyboard)

has had her fair share of parasocial viewers or encounters irl but head mod iguro obanai is never too far behind! can type /ban faster than you can blink

he rarely appears in her content, but helps out a lot with videography and editing

does a lot of short form content too about dancing, fashion, makeup etc

her most viral video is her and iguro eating super spicy noodles (he nearly passed out)

shinazugawa sanemi

rage/face card bait

usually has facecam up unless he’s feeling super tired that day 

his clips and highlights are just him yelling out some abomination of censored cuss words into a horrible headset mic

his most famous clip include him shoving a mouse into his mouth (think taxi2g)

plays a lot of stuff from fps to casual to rpgs, depends on his mood

rarely collabs because he prefers streaming solo

once genya walked in on his stream to ask him about dinner and everyone was surprised by how patient and kind he was with his brother 

they clipped it and then sanemi yelled at his chat for it 

sometimes genya comes in to say hi to stream (because the chat loves him) and sanemi has to peel him away from the camera and pretend to rough house him a little to keep up appearances

uzui tengen

his seemingly clickbait titles are NOT clickbait. yes, he is going to stay out in the woods for 24 hours 

(someone called search and rescue on him, the stream ended in 10 hours)

does the wackiest collabs that once included him booking a flight to a random country with kyojuro 

they ended up in taipei and actually had a lot of fun doing outdoor streams over there too

his wives never appear in his content because he wants to protect their privacy, so most of his viewers are skeptical about the whole ‘three wives’ thing

sometimes he plays games but its only for a series that he really loves

he decorates his whole streaming room and has a cosplay made (like kai cenat lmfao) and regularly does 12-24 hour streams

his account got suspended once for some unknown reason and he streamed on a second account of him showing up to tw*tch headquarters

Okay I need to vent. This morning I saw this on my fyp:

(btw I'm choosing not to reblog the original post and instead just post screenshots because this is definitely a rant and since the creator and I clearly have different opinions, so I decided it's just better to leave them out of this)

Anyways, I saw this and I got pissed. Very very pissed. And so I spent 2 and a half hours writing a whole three page essay explaining everything wrong with this.

So here it is. (:

First of all, the Darkling does every single thing listed here for Nikolai, excluding cutting people’s fingers off, but he does commit mass murder, which I personally consider to be worse than cutting off someone’s fingers. 

Anyways, let’s first just address Nikolai’s reasons for doing each of these things and then the Darkling’s reasons for doing the same things.

Cutting the fingers off a man: Nikolai was a teenager who wanted to help his incredibly war torn country. He felt helpless, and even once he became a privateer, a lot of people still disrespected him because of his age, so he proved his ruthlessness by injuring one person, so he could help save his entire country. 

Usurping the throne: First of all, Nikolai was second in line to the throne, and after Vasily died, he would’ve been first. Also, the current king was an ignorant rapist who let the rest of the country go to waste to fuel his own luxuries. Nikolai wanted to rescue his country from war and a ruler that was doing nothing to stop hundreds of people (many of them kids) from dying in unnecessary battles.

Lying to Alina/hiding information from her: All Nikolai did was hide his identity from Alina to get her safely away from the Darkling who had just kidnapped her for the second time in less than a year. Kissed her without her consent: Okay, let’s just preface this by saying Malina was what got me hyperfixated on the Grishaverse, so seeing Nikolai kiss Alina did upset me, but he did it spread hope to the Ravkan villagers. They were also already spreading around a fake engagement, so while it was wrong, it wasn’t like he was trying to manipulate her. Nikolai was just trying to make their marriage more believable. (I’d also like to address a scene later in the book where Alina actually wants Nikolai to kiss her, and he says no, knowing that she just wants a distraction and isn’t really in love with him).

And now for why the Darkling did all the same things. 

Trying to usurp the throne: The Darkling hates the king, but not because he’s a terrible person, but because he’s ignorant and the Darkling knows he could be using the Fold to expand Ravka’s power. The Darkling usurps the throne so he can try and take over the country, not because he wants to save it.

Lying to Alina/hiding information from her: Unlike Nikolai, he wasn’t trying to protect her. The Darkling lied to Alina so she would believe that 1) he was in love with her and 2) he wanted to save Ravka. We know this isn’t true. When Nikolai lies, he does it to protect Alina, but when the Darkling lies he does it to manipulate her.

Kissed Alina without her consent: The Darkling tried to convince Alina he was in love with her so she would be easier to manipulate. Alina even says she doesn’t know how he feels about her, and that she doesn’t believe he loves her, but that she wants to be wanted by him. 

And now for everything else the Darkling does:

Mass murder: He destroyed an entire town just to prove a point. 

“Gifting” Genya to the Lantsovs, and then allowing her to be continually raped by them

for years. More than anything else, I feel like this proves just how terrible he is.

Killing his own mother: No explanation needed, that’s just awful.

Threatening to kill Mal to make sure Alina stays in line. He enslaved Alina. He put an unremovable collar around her neck that forced her to do whatever he wanted, and then promised to kill her boyfriend just in case that wasn’t enough.

Using kids as bargaining chips. Using grown people is bad enough, but kids. Sure, they’re Grisha, but they aren’t strong enough to fight back, especially after seeing their captor kill Ana Kuya, who helped care for them while they were in hiding. (Also just felt like adding that Nina was one of the students who he used as a bargaining chip. That’s honestly pretty unimportant, but if you needed another reason to hate him.)

Killing Alina’s mother figure: Again, he did this just to prove a point. He wanted to show Alina that he could hurt the people she cared about, and that was his only incentive.

So that the first 75% of my rant, but I also made the mistake of looking at the comments on that post and added a whole extra page responding to those.

Saying that the same thing can be applied to Kaz is so fucking disrespectful. Kaz is a traumatized teen. Is he violent? Yes. But he only hurts people who have hurt him, his friends, or other innocent people. Oomen nearly killed Inej, as well as the other crows, so Kaz hurt him because he cared about his friends and was mad that they were almost killed. When the Darkling kills people, it’s out of greed for power and the fact that he knows it’ll get a rise out of Alina.

And then this. Kaz calls Inej an investment because he values her. She said four words to him and chose to pay off her indenture. She ended up being not only an incredible spy, but an incredible friend as well. Kaz didn’t need to pay off her indenture, but he did because despite everything terrible that he does, he’s still a genuinely good person, and didn’t want to see a woman being exploited the way she was. An investment is something you value, which is why Kaz calls her one.

Also, Kaz makes a big point of Inej not belonging to anyone. He didn’t force her to get the Dregs tattoo, because he didn’t “want to be the one to mark her again.” He recognized that she was an independent person, and by not making her have the tattoo, he was giving her the freedom to leave Ketterdam when her indenture was paid off. Also, when Inej tells Kaz she wants to leave Ketterdam, he literally buys her a boat so she can leave. That’s not how you treat your property.

And as for the Darkling, he used Alina’s power to start a civil war. What he does is beyond redemption. The Darkling exploits and manipulates women. He abuses and assaults them to reach his own goals, most of which involve destroying the rest of the world so that Ravka stays in power. Comparing him to two kids who just do what they have to to survive is so disrespectful, and clearly you misunderstood the messages of the books if you think that Kaz and Nikolai are the same as the Darkling.

So that's my little anti-Darkling rant. I've already tortured my frienda with this, so if they didn't think I was insane before, they do now lol.

We need an au where kny academy teacher Sanemi Shinazugawa gets transported/isekai'd to an ancient world where everyone he ever knew doesn't know him even if he recognizes them.

His fellow teachers and some of the students are now all either armed with various weapons or know how to throw hands even if they previously didn't. they all pretty much retained their personalities (kanae and kyogai are missing, though, he noted).

They all carry accessories with them (a necklace, a ring, earrings, or even tattooes) with the symbol of the god of the wind with them at all times. they said it's like an insignia that they serve the said god.

They were spouting nonsense about protecting the shrine of the god of the wind, who sanemi came to know was the god protecting the kingdom from harm.

The reason for which is that he is believed to be the vessel of the said god, and his fellow teachers in the academy, as well as the students, are now all swearing to protect him even if it means their death.

One other particular detail that sanemi noted is tomioka, who he knew as a gym teacher from his world, is now still quite distant from the others. but sanemi saw how the others are at least trying to befriend him here, especially uzui and rengoku.

One time, sanemi snuck out of the shrine and abode of the god of the wind, against all their advice not to go out because assassins of the rival kingdon, the kingdom under the protection of the god of chaos, were up and about always.

Sanemi just wanted to go home. His brother genya might be looking for him. in his trance of thoughts, he encountered a tall man with beautiful rainbow eyes, long pale hair thinning to a spiral, and how he carried two golden fans on him.

The stranger smiled at him, and sanemi found it weird how he didn't have any accessory of the god of the wind, and instead, the two fans that the stranger had a symbol of twelve crimson roses embedded on it.

"Good evening, quite a lovely moon tonight, isn't it?"

Before sanemi could speak, he had merely a second to react before the stranger dashed to attack him with the said two fans that sanemi learned in no time was very sharp by how it sliced a few black hairs of the one who came to his rescue.

Sanemi blinked, releasing the breath he didn't know he was holding, and saw tomioka stood before him in a protective stance, hand on his sword, and a stern expression against the stranger with rainbow eyes.

"To...Tomioka..." sanemi muttered. He's a maths teacher in a school. He can definitely throw hands and protect himself, but against people with highly unnatural, supernatural speed and sharp ass, weird weapons... well...

"You disobeyed everyone." Tomioka muttered under his breath, after sparing sanemi with a mere side eye.

"Well, well, I didn't expect one of the guardians of the god of the wind to be so fast! I guess that was foolish of me!" The stranger laughed giddily , hiding his face with his fans, seemingly not minding he almost killed someone.

As sanemi merely stayed behind tomioka, he saw the stranger kept his friendly demeanor, grinning widely.

"I'm so lucky though, the lone survivor of the kingdom serving the god of water, I heard you survived after losing your friend and mentor, as well as your entire kingdom. what made you serve others now? I'm curious!"

"I hate talking, so I will refrain from conversing with you." Tomioka adjusted his stance, held his sword tighter, and told sanemi to find others.

Sanemi, however, stood frozen. He's way too confused about all of this.

Who is this crazy stranger? Tomioka's entire kingdom fell? He lost his family and friends?

Does genya exist in this universe?

He had too many questions, but for now, sanemi was torn in what to do. Will he ask for help and leave Tomioka? Or will he stay to make sure to help in any way he can?

Hello! I have not read the shadow and home series, only seen the show and read six of crows (very obvious if you see my account) and I really don't get the whole "is the Darkling is evil or not", because I haven't seen arguments from the pro Darkling side and very few from the anti Darkling side... Can you explain it for me?

Hi! Thanks so much for the ask, I can definitely do my best to explain this for you but I am firmly of the anti-darkling belief so I think the best way for me to go about this is to outline common pro-Darkling points and explain why I disagree with them, and suggest that if you'd like more detail into the pro-Darkling arguments that you look through the tag, or through the pro-darklina tag <3

I just wrote a summary of S&S and R&R to the best detail that I could from memory only to remember that the entire plot summaries are available on the Grishaverse wiki (*screams*). But anyway the summaries were very long so I've cut them and if you want to check the plotlines for more detail you can do that on the wiki the summaries look really good (better than mine lol) but if there are any specific points I mention that you want me to expand on I can just let me know in the replies :)

Nb: this entire post will be spoilers for the Grisha trilogy and probably the entire Grishaverse.

Please be aware that I am going to address the backstories & traumatic experiences of several characters but most specifically Alina, Mal, Genya, and Zoya.

So I believe that the main points in the pro-Darkling argument are that he had noble causes, that he did genuinely love Alina, and that his actions are a product of the suffering he'd been through. However what I also see a lot of, though generally I avoid pro-darkling posts because I don't have any interest in starting an argument with anyone (and btw I'm going to tag this as anti-darkling and anti-darklina, which I always do when I'm talking about him so that anyone who doesn't want to see it can filter it out just as I can do with the pro-darkling and pro-darklina tags if I don't want to see them), is criticisms of Mal as the 'incorrect choice' for the final love interest and a 'bad person'.

So going point by point down these as to why I disagree with them:

"The Darkling has noble causes." -> The Darkling claims that his cause is a safer world for Grisha, and this on its surface is absolutely a noble cause. I would never deny that. The Grisha have been marginalised, abused, and oppressed throughout world history, and at 400+ years old in a pre-industrial revolution/early industrial revolution world the Darkling has seen and been subjected to a great deal of this. It is an undeniably noble goal to want to protect his people and to help them rise up. However, the Darkling can only see it come at the cost of mass death not only caused by the Shadow Fold's construction but the centuries of its presence on the continent, mass death caused by the destruction of Novo Kribirsk, direct and indirect murder of thousands of innocent lives, and the abuse of Alina, Genya, Zoya, David, Nikolai, Mal, and not only more characters we know but countless characters who encountered him during his rise, a compulsory draft for his people in the country where they were supposedly safest, brutally attacking his own mother and leaving her blind in the aftermath, and more. Now I'm not going to talk about the compulsory draft too much because I don't actually know if that was the Darkling's invention or not and I absolutely believe that the infrastructure of Ravka was designed to abuse and manipulate Grisha through nationalism (see Nina Zenik), but I think it's so important to note that after the Civil War massive strides forward are made in the treatment of Grisha in Ravka without any kind of destruction on the levels that the Darkling claimed were necessary. Nikolai disestablishes the compulsory draft but this doesn't stop the Second Army from reforming, or from Ravka sending missions to rescue at risk Grisha. The goal of these missions was still to recruit for the Army, but all individuals were given a choice and those that refused were still offered protection or safe passage. It's by no means a perfected system, but it's a great improvement from a draft that brought Zoya in at nine, Genya in at seven, Nina in so young she has no memory of her life before, and so on, and manipulated them their entire lives.

Before I let the manipulation lead me into my next point, I want to add that I also don't entirely trust a statement of the Darkling's causes being noble in the first place. On it's surface, as I said, a safer world for Grisha is an undeniably noble cause noble cause - but turning the abuse their people suffered against otkazats'ya people is not. I believe liberation that requires oppression is not true liberation. We also see that he willingly kills the Grisha teachers from the Little Palace, despite saying to Alina that he doesn't want to waste more Grisha lives, threatens the children from the Little Palace, attacks Genya for betraying him, and causes mass slaughter of anyone, Grisha or otkazats'ya, who sides with Alina. That doesn't sound like making the world safer for his people. It sounds like a power-hungry dictator using a commonly held ideology to manipulate the populous into supporting him.

That doesn't sound like protecting Grisha. It sounds like killing them.

Back to the manipulation.

This manipulation was not from the institution alone; no, it was very much directly from the Darkling. This brings me into point two - "The Darkling genuinely loved Alina." ->

The Darkling manipulated Zoya, who remember effectively grew up with him because she was brought to the Little Palace at nine after escaping her abusive mother's attempt at forcing her into marriage. Zoya was brought to the Little Palace by her aunt, Liliyana Garin. The Darkling made Zoya feel like she had to rely on him, whilst simultaneously telling her that she was special. The famous quote "You and I are going to change the world" was actually said to Zoya long before it was said to Alina, whom the Darkling used the exact same manipulation tactics against, and it was also used later in Rule of Wolves against Yuri, a monk from the Cult of the Starless Saint, who worship he Darkling as a fallen Saint. The way I read it, this is a very clear writing choice to emphasise that the Darkling does not care about any of the people he speaks these words to; this is the manipulation tactic that he knows, that he is used an unknowable number of times, and that he has had lifetimes to perfect and learn how to use it to his gain. He essentially tied Zoya's self-worth to his opinion of her, and she spent her entire life trying to be good enough for him, trying to impress him, trying to prove herself as worthy of his acclaim, of his attention, and arguably of his protection since he was her protector as a child. After escaping her mother and being brought to safety, Zoya grew up believing that she was lucky to be treated the way the Darkling treated her. In the books it's implied they may have had a sexual relationship, and this was confirmed as part of show canon during season one. Lilyana was later indirectly killed by the Darkling when he destroyed Novo Kribirsk by moving the Fold. Sometimes I'm almost glad she can never know what happened to Zoya, because she loved her and she thought she was protecting her and I think that knowing what the Darkling did to the niece she left in his care, believing that she was saving her, may very well have broken her.

When Alina arrived at the Little Palace, the Darkling discarded Zoya like a toy he'd grown bored of. He manipulated Alina using the exact same tactics that he did Zoya, which of course we see a great deal of first hand throughout the trilogy. During the process of this, Zoya suffers greatly from the process of being tossed aside. The Darkling intentionally sets Alina and Zoya against each other from day one, denying them any chance of camaraderie or realising what was being done to them. The way I read this, this was the pitting of women against each other by a misogynist, not only for the misogynist's gain but also because he actively feared the strength that they would have together. I've spoken about this before but yeah that's how I feel about it, we miss out on what could have been a lot more Zoya & Alina power and just general content because the Darkling purposefully turns them against each other. Alina starts experiencing everything that Zoya did - the Darkling makes her feel important or special on his terms, he makes her want his attention, he makes her feel like her importance is reliant on him, he makes her believe that she is incapable alone and needs him at her side, etc - and since this is all Zoya has known since childhood she doesn't know how to identify the similarities in his treatment of them as abuse but instead believes that he has lost interest in her in favour of Alina because she is more special, she is more important, she is more precious. Zoya has spent her entire life trying to be exactly what the Darkling wanted, and the way he casts her aside is so deeply damaging to Zoya because all those things he did, making her think that she was only special or important or worthy for as long as he said so? She believed them. Her self worth was so utterly destroyed by Alina's mere existence that without understanding it was the Darkling who had done that to her, not Alina, of course she hated her. The two of them overcoming this distance and developing their relationship is probably one of my favourite subplots

David and Genya both suffer at the hands of the Darkling's manipulation as well, though in different ways - and directly I want to talk about Genya but it is still more than worth acknowledging David as well. Genya was found by testers at 7 and presented to the Queen by the Darkling as a gift when she was 11. So super crazy take, I know, but I think there are ways of training someone to be a spy without giving them away into slavery. The Darkling placed Genya in the path of abuse from both the Queen and the King, and it is strongly implied that she told him she was being raped and physically abused and that he manipulated her into believing that her pain was worth something because she was his soldier. Even if she didn't directly tell him, the sexual abuse that the King committed against Genya is not a secret in either of the palaces, and is in fact part of the reason that the Queen physically abuses Genya because she takes out the anger she can't voice against the King on her instead, and the Darkling never did anything to protect her. Even when she tells Alina everything that happened to her, she says that she is his soldier and that this was her role. And after everything that she did for him, for giving her entire life up and enduring years of abuse, the Darkling turns on Genya the moment that she expresses care towards Alina. Genya was simultaneously pulled in two directions: her beauty was what, she believed, caused the King to attack her and subsequently the cause of her pain, but it was also a product of her Tailoring and without it she never would have been worth the Darkling's time. Being so thoroughly manipulated by him, she therefore believed that he beauty was what gave her worth. The Darkling knew exactly what he was doing in taking that away from her, not only the physical pain he caused her, not only the loss of her eye, but the subsequent inability to Tailor her scars and be who she saw herself as before. Genya's scars in the books are described to extend across her entire face and down her neck, down her arms, and along her hands, prompting Jesper in Crooked Kingdom to wonder "what manner of weapon" would be capable of causing them.

"The Darkling is a product of pain and abuse that he suffered throughout his life" -> yeah, absolutely. He wasn't born to be evil and I really enjoyed learning more about his childhood in the prequel graphic novel. But I don't think that excuses mass murder, or abuse, or any of his other actions

"Mal was not Alina's ideal love interest and came across as a bad person" ->

Personally I don't think Mal is a bad person, I think that he made mistakes during the trilogy but that ultimately he begins this story as a seventeen year old child solider; he is afraid for his own life and the lives of his friends, children and young adults make mistakes that older people are more aware of/in tune to or less likely to make, and the world he understood fell from his grip very, very rapidly.

I also know that a lot of people don't like Alina and Mal's ending, particularly with Alina losing her powers. (Brief explanation: Alina fakes her death and they tailor one of the fallen soldiers, Ruby, to look like her so that she and the Darkling can be burned together. Alina no longer has sun powers and Mal is no longer an expert tracker. Together they vanish to live alone in happy obscurity and run an orphanage. One day, the staff of the orphanage see a group of Grisha, including a beautiful Suli Squaller and a Corporalnik missing an eye, bring the woman who runs the place a blue kefta embroidered in gold and see that it makes her cry. They wonder if perhaps she knew a Grisha who died and has been given their kefta in commoration, but that's because they haven't seen the note inside that says "You will always be one of us" (This would be around where I start sobbing) ) Personally I think that this is a brilliant ending, with tragedy and bittersweet beauty sewn right through it. There are many implications through the trilogy that as Alina becomes more powerful she feels the pull and high that power can bring her as dangerously alluring. As she correctly identifies when she fakes her death, the people would have eventually turned on her as a heretic just as they did the Darkling. What I don't think she verbally acknowledged but that I saw as implicit in the text, was that she, like anyone may have done with access to such immense power and such a long lifespan, had the potential to become deserving of that label if she continued down the path. Alina giving up her power shows a distinct and beautiful difference between herself and the Darkling: she knew when to stop.

And she loved Mal. She loved him, and he loved her. So freaking much. Everything Mal does, every single decision he makes - even when they aren't all that smart - is born out of love for Alina. And they are both so very young.

Okay so I think that is pretty much everything I have to say off the top of my head, I hope that this was helpful! I feel like maybe a more nuanced/evenly-weighted explanation was what you were looking for and I'm sorry if this was too heavily weighted against, but people posting in the pro darkling tag will absolutely be able to explain their own arguments better than I can and I don't think I would be able to present them accurately to their opinions because they'd be affected by my own in my writing.

And, again, I am really not looking to start any kind of argument with anyone over this, I'm just explaining my reasons for where I fall and if anyone reading this disagrees then please remember that my opinions don't discredit your own, they are yours and mine are mine :) <33

Thanks for the ask! <3

One of things I love most about Leigh Bardugo's books is her focus on the violence committed against women and girls. In Shadow and Bone, there's Genya and Alina. Both have been manipulated by the Darkling and exploited, Alina for her power, and Genya for her beauty. Genya was repeatedly raped by the king and the Darkling refused to help her because he wanted to use her as a spy. The Darkling and the Apprart saw Alina and her powers as a way to push their agendas and gain power.

In Six of Crows, there's Inej and Mayra Hendriks. Inej has sold into human trafficking as a young teen and suffered abuse from men. Even when Kaz rescues her from Tante Heleen, she is still bound to Per Haskell. Then in Crooked Kingdom, she is kidnapped by Van Eck and starved and threatened with torture. Mayra Hendriks, Wylan's mother, was put into an asylum by her husband for having a child with a disability.

King of Scars explores Zoya's character more and we learn that she was almost a child bride to a pedophile, and was then manipulated by the Darkling when her aunt rescued her by taking her to the Little Palace. Nina discovers the full extent of the misogyny in Fjerda in these books too. She finds the Fjerdan Grisha women, who are being drugged and forced to have children for the government. Through Hanne and Nina's experiences with Jarl Brum, we see how men like him confine women and their femininity into a rigid box.

In Ninth House, Alex has suffered so much at the hands of men. Len, her ex-boyfriend, was abusive to her. Eitan the drug dealer also exploited Alex for her ability to use the strength of Grays. There were also the women like Tara who are murdered for greed and power. Mercy and Hellie are two young women who were raped by powerful men.

I am sure that I have forgotten some characters and I apologize for that. Violence against girls and women is something that tends to get swept under the rug, so to speak, and I am glad that Leigh Bardugo touches on this topic repeatedly in her books.

[readerinsertsaremyguiltypleasure]

Heyyy I was wondering if u could write like a moon summoner x darkling smut . She could be disguised as the queens lady in waiting when in reality she’s the kings personal bodyguard . Alexander could find out who she is when she appears to help save Alina when she’s attacked on the way to the little palace .

thank uuuu

Hi. Thanks for the prompt. I took a couple of liberties with this one, so I hope that's okay.

First of all, I went with a sun summoner reader. Whenever I read "moon summoner", I just picture the reader conjuring a mini moon and hurling it at their enemies like a Poké Ball, which I'm pretty sure is not what you had in mind. So, seeing as moonlight is just reflected sunlight anyway, sun summoner seemed the best compromise.

Secondly, I couldn't quite make the lady in waiting thing work, so I made it that she is just part of the King's Guard, but that is where she is hiding.

Everything else fits with your prompt. I think.

Anyways, I hope you like it.

_____________________________________

You had known something was going to go wrong on this trip. You had felt it as soon as the King had told you that you were to accompany General Kirigan to oversee the latest skiff’s maiden voyage. You were Grisha, yes, but you were also part of the King’s personal guard; not officially part of the second army. Guarding the General was not your job.

It wasn’t like he needed the extra help, anyway. And as far as everybody else was concerned, you were merely an Inferni. The strongest Inferni in Ravka, but an Inferni nonetheless. As far as they knew, your power was inconsequential to that of the Darkling.

They were wrong.

But that was how you liked it. If they knew the truth about you, they’d give you a responsibility that you knew you couldn’t live up to.

But knowledge of your true power or no, the King had still wanted you on this trip - just in case - and now you were in the middle of an ambush.

A scream caught your attention, and you turned to see your newest charge, Alina Starkov, being dragged into the woods by a fierce look Fjerdan. You ducked behind a tree as more bullets came your way, and then ran off after them.

It didn’t take long to find them. They were in the middle of a clearing, not far from the treeline. The Fjerdan had Alina pinned to the ground, axe above his head and ready to strike.

There was no way you could get across the clearing in time to save her. And they were too far away to pass off your powers as that of normal fire.

But you couldn’t let her die. She was like you.

She was a Sun Summoner.

Willing up as much power as you could, you brought your hands together and then sent a bolt of light across the clearing. Your aim was true, and you burnt a whole straight through the Fjerdan’s chest.

You hadn’t realised you weren’t the only one who had come to Alina’s rescue until it was too late. If you had known the Darkling was right behind you, you would have let him deal with it. The cut worked just as well with shadow as it did with light, after all.

‘You’re no Inferni,’ said General Kirigan, staring at you like you were a jewel he had long searched for.

And despite the fact that your secret was out and your life was now changed forever, you couldn’t help but preen under his gaze.

Genya had always warned you to be wary of powerful men… but you’d always had trouble listening to her advice.

----

When you got back to the Little Palace, Kirigan had passed Alina off onto Genya and had then all but dragged you to his private quarters. The echoing of the door closing behind you both made you nervous.

You tried distracting yourself by surveying the large map of Ravka on the table, but Kirigan didn’t let you remain distracted for long. ‘An interesting day,’ he said as he slowly walked towards you. ‘I started out with no Sun Summoner. Now I have two.’

The way he moved was almost predatory, and it made something inside you stir. Something you didn’t want to analyse too much.

‘Why did you hide?’ he asked.

‘I can’t tear down the Fold.’

You figured it was best to get straight to the point. You may not have been under his command, but you knew he was not one to purposefully anger.

‘I’m not powerful enough, and if I failed, I would no doubt be punished.’

Kirigan regarded you, now close enough to touch you if he so chose. ‘So, to hide, you turned your sun powers into that of just normal fire. Clever.’

He took a step back, and a moment later, the room was filled with his shadows. You couldn’t even see him anymore, though you knew he was still right in front of you.

‘Show me,’ his voice came from the darkness. A command if ever you’d heard one.

You knew it was no use defying him, so you brought your hands together and conjured the biggest ball of sunlight you could, sending it up above your head. It was enough to light the area between you and Kirigan, but nothing more.

But then he stepped forward and grabbed your wrist.

The power you felt flowing through you was like nothing you’d ever felt before, and without you even realising it, your small sun blazed into an inferno, lighting the whole room as if it were the middle of a cloudless day.

The look Kirigan gave at your display could not have been described as anything less than hungry.

‘You’re perfect,’ was all he said before his mouth was suddenly on yours, devouring you with a possessive kiss.

High on the power of his amplification and the fact that this handsome man wanted you, you returned the kiss eagerly, and you soon found yourself being lifted onto the table behind you.

The moment Kirigan’s hand left your skin, your sunlight faded, but that was okay. So had his shadows, and you could still see him quite clearly as he deftly undid your kefta.

‘To think I had you under my nose the entire time,’ he said between smaller kisses to your neck and jaw. You were sure you were going to have marks in the morning.

You didn’t care.

Once he had your kefta off, your hands scrambled at his own clothes, but he grabbed your wrists, stopping you. He didn’t say anything, but you got the point.

He was in control.

Satisfied that you were going to comply, he released your wrists and got back to undressing you. It felt like mere seconds before he had you in nothing but your underwear.

He stroked his hands over the skin of your thighs, making the power inside you ripple. If this was what just his hands on you felt like, you couldn’t wait to feel the rest of him.

‘Do you want this?’ he asked, voice little more than a growl.

You unconsciously licked your lips as you watched him slowly undo the buttons of his trousers.

‘Saints, yes,’ you breathed. In that moment, you didn’t care that your life was never going to be the same again. In fact, you revelled in it. It felt good to no longer have to hide. It felt freeing.

It also felt good to be fully appreciated. To be wanted.

Kirigan groaned and pushed the material of his trousers out of the way so he could fist himself. You eyes remained fixed on him, mesmerised by the sight.

He gave himself a few pumps before stepping forward and pulling your underwear aside with one finger. He lined himself up and then used his free hand to grab your chin, forcing you to look in his eyes.

The lust you saw in them made you whimper, as did the feel of his skin on yours.

‘You and I are going to do so much together,’ he said, and he pushed himself inside you with one solid thrust. You gasped and resisted the temptation to close your eyes in pleasure.

Kirigan’s gaze never left yours, even as his hips set a brutal pace, and his lips curled into a smile that was full of victory.

‘Now you’re mine.’

Part 2, 3, 1

——••————••——

Gyomei is a…

Norwegian forest cat: As you were about to leave for work, something caught your attention near the bushes—a large animal lying still. Curiosity and concern got the best of you, so you carefully approached. When you got close enough, the animal sprang up defensively, and to your surprise, it was a cat—a large one at that. Gyomei, as you’d later name him, raised his guard instantly but made no moves to attack.

Crouching down, you extended your hand gently, allowing him to approach on his own terms. You noticed the way he sniffed the ground cautiously, his ears perking up at every sound. His coat was dirty, and his unusual eye color stood out, making you realize he must be another stray. Though part of you wanted to take him in immediately, you decided to leave him be for now, resolving that if he was still there when you returned from work, you’d take him in.

Hours later, you came back, and to your surprise, there he was—waiting patiently in the same spot. With nothing visibly wrong with him, and his quiet demeanor drawing you in, you welcomed Gyomei into your home, making him another addition to your ever-growing family of cats.

——••————••——

Muchiro is a…

Ragdoll: Your friend came to you one day, holding a small cat in her arms—Muichiro. She told you how she had rescued him after a terrible dog attack. Sadly, Muichiro’s brother hadn’t survived the encounter. The little cat had been through so much and needed a home, a place where he could feel safe again. Without hesitation, you accepted him into your care, vowing to give him the love and comfort he deserved after such a tragic ordeal.

——••————••——

Tanjiro and Nezuko are…

Abyssinian(nezuko would just be a kitten verison): At another pet shelter, you found yourself looking through the cages of adorable cats when your eyes landed on Nezuko. She was small and undeniably cute, so you gently took her out, holding her against your chest as you petted her. She immediately relaxed into your touch, clearly enjoying the affection.

What you didn’t notice at first was another cat, Tanjiro, in the same cage. He slowly approached, sniffing you curiously before giving your hand a small lick and placing a paw on your arm, as if asking to be included. It was obvious they were siblings, you really did only plan to take one home but there was no way you could adopt just one without the other. Besides, Tanjiro wouldn’t have let you take Nezuko without him anyway. So, with a warm smile, you decided to adopt both, bringing them home to join your growing family.

——••————••——

Zenitsu is a…

Birman: You met Zenitsu while working in your room, completely focused on your task. However, you were suddenly pulled from your concentration by the sound of distressed meows coming from outside. Glancing up towards your window, you spotted a cat stuck in the tree just outside.

Without hesitation, you got up and opened your window, leaning out slightly as you tried to coax the cat toward you. It didn’t take long for Zenitsu to notice you. Surprisingly, after just a moment of hesitation, he jumped right into your arms, catching you off guard.

As soon as you caught him, Zenitsu snuggled into you, clinging tightly and letting out a flurry of relieved meows. It was clear he wasn’t going to let go anytime soon, and with that, Zenitsu became another member of your growing cat family.

——••————••——

Inosuke is a…

Scottish wildcat: You were lounging on the couch, relaxing, when you started hearing a strange banging noise. At first, you brushed it off as your imagination, but after a minute, it didn’t stop. The sound came and went, echoing through the house, and it seemed to be coming from the kitchen. Slightly concerned, you got up and cautiously walked toward the sound, just in case it was an intruder.

When you reached the kitchen, you saw your other cats all staring out the sliding door, their attention fixed on something outside. Following their gaze, you looked out the door and saw… a cat. Not just any cat, but one that was ramming its head against your sliding door with determination. The cat, Inosuke, would run a few feet back, then charge forward, headbutting the door like he was trying to break through.

You stared at the odd sight for a few more moments, not sure whether to laugh or be concerned. Eventually, you decided to open the door. As soon as it slid open, Inosuke barreled right in, running around your house like a whirlwind, tracking dirt all over the floor. You sighed but couldn’t help but smile at the chaotic energy he brought with him.

——••————••——

Genya is a…

American short hair: While sitting in the park, you noticed a group of kids harassing a cat, poking at the poor thing and making it flinch. Without hesitation, you stepped in, sternly telling the kids to leave. Once they were gone, you turned your attention to the frightened cat, who gazed up at you defensively, his body tense and wary. You smiled softly, crouching down to make yourself appear less threatening.

You had an idea and decided to take a chance. After leaving the cat—whom you’d later name Genya—hoping he’d stay put, you rushed off to a nearby store. When you returned a few minutes later with a can of cat food, you were relieved to see that Genya was still there, though hiding cautiously in the bushes. Opening the can, you placed it gently on the ground and backed up a little.

Slowly but surely, Genya emerged from the bushes, drawn by the scent of food. As he ate, you carefully reached out, gently stroking his back. To your relief, he didn’t pull away, and after a little more time, he trusted you enough to let you take him home, becoming yet another cherished member of your feline family.
