svsss omegaverse au where only those with profound cultivation ability develop into alphas or omegas. this means both powerful spiritual cultivators and powerful demon lines
under luo bingheâs rule, any alpha or omega in the general populace is brought to binggeâs palace. omega women are added to the harem without question, tho there are a notable few alpha women there as well (shl and lmy).
sy transmigrates into a wandering omega cultivator exploring the world (the world building was the best part of that dumbfuck novel and now he gets to experience it firsthand!!!). his exploration quickly takes him from the few safe remaining human cities and into the wider world.
heâs chased for days by different demon groups until one finally catches him, because junshangâs been hell-bent on finding some particular male omega for the past few months. heâs put out a bounty and everything; whoever brings the right omega gets riches and their choice of one treasure from junshangâs vault.
everyone thinks heâs gonna kill this dude. they assume the omega wronged junshang somehow and he wants revenge. sy is scared absolutely shitless. these guys tie him up in immortal binding cables and beat him up a little bit. by the time they make it to the underground palace, sy looks fuckin rough
and surprisingly, lord luo is not pleased by this. so displeased, in fact, that he cuts the demons down right there in the middle of his reception hall? sy is 100% sure heâs gonna be next and he nearly passes out when bingge approaches. (part of him is screaming because!!!! luo binghe!!! in the flesh!!!!! with an air of power and deadly beauty and strength!!!! the protagonist!!!)
lbg studies syâs face for a minute, then has servants take him away. heâs bathed (THOROUGHLY!! maybe TOO thoroughly!!! he can wash his own ass!! thank you!!) and styled, and with the cables removed he can finally heal his injuries from being captured.
the next time they meet, lbg seems weirdly angry. his hands are shaking and his face is red, and every time he makes eye contact with sy, he growls and looks sharply away. heâs definitely barely holding back from killing sy!! maybe itâs because sy left the human cities? maybe itâs because he was poking around somewhere off-limits?? sy has no idea what he did.
lbg leads him down down to the water prison, and again sy almost passes out. my mans definitely pukes into the water just from the smell alone. itâsâŚa gory scene. but whatâs most unsettling about it isnât the emptiness in sqqâs eyes or the desperate grunting that only becomes louder the closer lbg brings sy.
whatâs most unsettling is how similar they look. they could be brothers, their family resemblance is powerful. same face shape, same nose, same cheekbones.
and sy gets it then. bingge is done playing with sqq; thereâs nothing really left to do to him (though heâs still got his dickâŚsy was one of the loudest proponents of cutting it off for what he did to ning yingying!) so lbg must be looking for a replacement.
lbg studies them both for a long time, as if cataloguing all the similarities between their faces. the whole time, sy is shaking, trying not to fall over. eventually, lbg must be satisfied, because he looks sy up and down slowly before muttering. âyouâll do for now. we can see how you measure up.â
POORLY!!! shen yuan is determined to measure up extremely poorly to that old shizun of lbgâs!! to save his own skin, heâll be nothing like that asshole!!
thus begins shen yuanâs plan to treat the emperor with such doting, kind respect that heâll see nothing of sqq in him beyond his unfortunate face!! surely lord luo wonât want to kill someone so kind to him!!
(every measure of shen yuanâs kindness is overwhelming to lbg. after so long heâs found what that other him flaunted in his face. a close relative of his shizunâs, no doubt, (maybe a twin separated at birth?) who became that other bingheâs shizun in that timeline. heâs kind and gentle and so concerned with bingheâs wellbeing in a wayâŚno one has since his mother, so so long ago. that one morning with the other shizun was so sweet, but thisâhaving this omega here in his palace, fussing at him to eat more and dress more warmly when he goes to the north, smiling unrestrained, smelling so impossibly sweetâthis is so much better than he could have imagined. luo bingge will convince this shen yuan to be his omega. not as a concubine, but as a proper wife. first wife, maybe. empress, even. whatever it takes to get him to say yes. whatever it takes to keep him.)
#that spiraled out of control lmao#lbg truly just took sy down to compare their faces#forgot that seeing sqq like that might be upsetting for someone so lovely as sy#omega consort shen yuan#luo binghe#shen yuan#luo bingge#binggeyuan#svsss#svsss au#svsss fanfiction#svsss fic#svsss omegaverse#omegaverse svsss#alpha luo binghe#alpha luo bingge#omega shen yuan#omega shen qingqiu#scum villain au#scum villainâs self saving system#scum villains self saving system#scumbag system#ren zha fanpai zijiu xitong#人渣ĺć´žčŞćçłťçť

ďš10097ďš SYNOPSIS . . . the dating scene sucks, especially when the only person you want to be with is your roommate.

ęŁŕ§ WARNINGS . . . profanities, drinking i mean lots of drinking we need alcohol shortage here, sunghoon smokes, mentions of one night stands, one very suggestive make out scene in the fourth section, undertones of cheating but not from sunghoon or reader, implications of sex although it's very light
ęŁŕ§ NOTES . . . hi ( _ _; ) drowning in nervousness as i'm posting this. it's my first long fic after months ... i think the last one was in may or june 23 ... so please be nice >< don't know why but this didn't turn out how i wanted it to and it's definitely not one of my proudest works, but i hope u guys like it nonetheless huhu TT happy reading and please rb and drop feedback, it's highly appreciated ^_^
001. WHERE THEREâS HEAVEN THEREâS HELL
sunghoon is spiralling again.Â
a part of it is because of the endless assignments from classes, but thatâs no news. he knows itâs his fault for procrastinating and waiting till two days before the due date to even think about working on themâ unlike jake who somehow attends classes probably four times a week and is seen in the football fields instead, and still manages to be the first one to submit his essays. itâs admirable, annoying at most. when he sat down to do his sports science project three days before it was due, sunghoon realised why his professor gave them two months to finish it.Â
but realising your mistakes and working on them to be a better version of yourself are two different things.
for one, sunghoon believes those assignments are useless. no one cares about the impact of sports on society, maybe except heeseung and jake but again, in sunghoonâs mind, those two are never important. second, heâs too perfect to be working on himself. sunghoon is the best version of himself. he was born the day his uncle died, and his dad inherited the entire chain of restaurants his family owns across the country. heâs too amazing to be worrying about getting a degree he can buyâ he thinks the university should be honoured heâs choosing to studyâ but thatâs simply because his mother doesnât want him to turn out like his sister.Â
back to the matter at handâ as he puts the beer can on the table and sits back on the couch, his eyes travel to the door yet again. seventh time in just a minute, heâs keeping a record of how you make him wait.Â
if thereâs one thing he hates is being irresponsible ( coming from the great king of irresponsibility himself. ) you said youâd be back by twelve, and itâs half past one in night and not a soul knows your whereabouts. thirteen texts, seven missed calls, his phone is at forty-one percent and sunghoon is at his limit. if it wasnât for your mom he wouldnât give two flying fucks about where you are and how youâve been.
sunghoon is actually surprisingly obedient and well-mannered, as opposed to the popular belief. he gave you and your mother the whole tour of the apartment the day you moved in. even made some coffee which isnât much but your mother had loved him. he could see it in the way she looked at him with those sweet eyes, holding his hands as if he was her own son, and asking him to look after you.Â
âplease take care of my daughter,â sunghoon thought he was getting married. instead of a wedding bell there were warning sirens going off. to this day he doesnât know why she asked him that, minutes after she saw a dead cactus in the balcony that he killed by overwatering. he couldnât even say no to her and just nodded, looking over at you briefly and noticing how you look like you were a bit embarrassed. sunghoon doesnât know why heâs so serious about âtaking careâ of you. he thought it would be easy, but you had to be devilâs favourite spawn and sunghoon happens to be your target.
however, he canât take this anymore. he has a morning class and waiting till two am while drinking beer has done more damage to sunghoon than it should. he gets up from the couch with a sigh, leaving the empty cans unattended for a night as he makes a mental note to clean tomorrow. it isnât until a click from the door stops him in his tracks.Â
âiâm back,â your voice is quiet, a yawn following immediately after your words as you look down while taking off your shoes. youâve been drinking again, sunghoon can tell it from a mile away.Â
âyouâre late,â he speaks over the silence, hands on his torso as heâs giving you those squinted eyes and doubtful looks. if sunghoon didnât know any better, he would assume you fucked someone at the club with how messy you look at the moment.
âyeah well, we had to take gigi to the hospital,â your lazy voice isnât much louder than a whisper. you stumble towards your room, a hiccup followed soon after by the same quiet and slurred tone. âshe ate something weird,â
he huffs at your words, knowing it would very well be just another excuse. âyou couldâve at least texted,â
âmy phone died,â
âiâm sure your friends would be happy to lend you their phone,â he pauses when he feels himself getting a bit annoyed. a soft sigh falls off his lips as he looks down at the tiled floor before looking up and speaking in a much calmer voice. âiâm just saying itâs not exactly safe to be out alone on the streets this late at night,â
âi wasnât alone,â that piques his interest. âjay drove me back,â
and sunghoon felt his whole world stop. âjay?â
âyeah, jay, park jongseong,â your voice is surprisingly sweet when you take his name and it bothers sunghoon for some reason. his face scrunches up when you bite back a smile, hoping itâs the alcohol not because of what he thinks it is. âheâs nicer than i thought,â
sunghoon is not unfamiliar with the name park jongseong.
he hears it every day on and off the campus, more often than he likes. first things first, heâs just as popular as jake, for being american, which brings sunghoon to the questionâ why in the world would he leave america to study in korea when jay could have attended one of the ivy leagues with his face and money?
and the second and more important question, why in the world is park jongseong dropping you home at two in the night?
sunghoon only watches you in disbelief and astonishment as you stumble to your room, mumbling something incoherently. your words ring in his ear like sirens. âhe is better than youâ jay is better than sunghoon. he scoffs almost offensively in your direction. that has to be the biggest lie of the twenty-first century.
he follows you to your room, reaching out to grab your arms when you almost trip but you manage to balance yourself. he opens the door and turns on the lights for you. âwhy were you with him to begin with?â
âoh, you donât know?â and you turn around with eyes wide open as he shakes his head like a deer in the headlight. âhe asked me out,âÂ
sunghoon didnât get a single ounce of sleep last night.Â
itâs your fault, clearly. had you been back earlier on the time, nothing wouldâve happened. and jayâ sunghoon sights at the thought of him, eyes narrowing as he grits on his pen as if heâs going to break it into two.Â
âdude, are you hungry?â jake pokes sunghoon by his shoulder, dragging the latter out of his trail of thoughts.Â
âwhat?â sunghoon shoots a blank look, one that makes his friend sigh in concern. afterall, itâs not everyday he sees sunghoon chewing on a pen. âiâm not,â
âyouâve been out of it since the morning,â
and sunghoon has been out of it since jayâs name fell from your lips.Â
heâs not your friend, definitely not the first guy youâve called by his name after sunghoon. but something doesnât sit right. even after tossing and turning in bed for the whole night, he canât figure out what bothers him moreâ the fact you said jay is better than him, or the fact that he asked you out on a date.
itâs the first one, he convinces himself. who you date is none of his business, he canât be arsed enough to care about your love life or relationship status. ( although, he does care a little because heâs nosy. ) what bothers him more is that jay is, to put it in simple words, a player. all that face and no empathy for emotions is a waste, and to think you donât know thisâ or maybe you do and yet still chose to go out with him, is beyond sunghoonâs comprehension.Â
âwhat do you think about jay?â he asks abruptly, catching jakeâs attention, looking at him a little too intently for an answer.Â
âheâs a nice guy,â a casual reply before he gets back to his assignment before jake looks back at sunghoon with newly found interest. âhe turned in my spanish essay last week, oh and drove me back from the bar a few days ago after you ditched me. why?â
sunghoon simply shakes his head, getting back to his books even though his focus is nowhere near studies. at this point, he doesnât know if itâs jay distracting him or you. even your words keep playing over and over again in the back of his head. jay and nice in the same sentence doesnât seem fit. sure, he helps his friends and drops his girl back home, but thatâs only three days before thereâs a new girl in his arms.Â
002. RUNNING OUT OF SANITY
sunghoon doesnât hear the door click open when you come back from your classes, too busy in the balcony while humming a tune that you recognise immediately. you take off your shoes, noticing how he taps his foot along with the melody, and itâs quiet in the apartment, apart from the sound of traffic and wind rustling through the trees around.
âi donât like people who smoke,â smoking is not on your list of likes, but you find yourself next to sunghoon whenever heâs with a cigarette. just like now, when you return from yet another one of your datesâ or meet-ups as you prefer to call it right nowâ with jay. it wasnât really planned. you bumped into him after classes and he was on his way back home, so you asked him for a coffee.Â
he almost jumps at your sudden voice but manages to compose himself, scowing at the distaste in your expression before scoffing, the cigarette still dancing between his lips. âgood think, iâm not looking forward to be liked by you,â
he studies the frown on your face, glares as if your eyes are shooting daggers in his direction. itâs amusing to him how easy it is to get on your nerves. he leans against the metal railings, hair falling over his forehead. his eyes stay on your for a few seconds before he holds the cigarette between his index and middle finger, putting it away from his mouth and blowing out the smoke in your directions. he laughs mockingly when you step back, fanning out the smoke with your hands, cursing under your breath.
âare you crazy?!â you exclaim in annoyance, coughing slightly at his poor attempt at entertainment. your frown deepens when he mumbles a quiet apology although not meaning it, from the looks of it, and lifts the cigarette back to his lips.Â
âyouâre back early,â he states casually, tapping the cigarette butt and watching the ash fall down from the balcony before a taunting chortle falls off his lips. âdid jay dump your ass or something?â
your nose scrunches up at his actions, although mostly at the tobacco you can still smell in your air. you look down at the road, watching a mercedes passing by. âno, he had to go somewhere so he left early,â
âi knew it! heâs good for nothing,â and he drops the cigarette to the floor, crushing it with his foot even though at the back of his mind, he knows youâre going to yell at him for cleaning that up. âwhat kind of guy canât even spend time with his girlfriend?â
âweâre not dating,â
âthatâs worse!â he emphasises, and a pause follows as he looks at you with a confused expression. âwaitâ didnât you say he asked you out?â
âhe did, but he said he wants to wait until exams are over,â thereâs a hint of displeasure in your voice. his eyes travel down to your fingers, especially the ring youâre fiddling with before theyâre back on your face when you speak again. âwe just decided to hang out,â
he practically scoffs at your words, quite literally in disbelief. a knowing sigh comes out of his mouth as he stands straight, this time standing with his back against the railing, feeling the cold metal though his thin white t-shirt. a part of him wants to laugh at your stupidity and point at how naive you are, while another part of him wants to find jay and beat him to pulp. he doesnât know why thereâs anger pooling in his stomach at the mere thought of jay just messing around with you.Â
âwhat a sick bastard,â he huffs with a tincture of annoyance in his tone. âhow much do you want to bet heâs playing with you?â
âyouâre the one whoâs sick,â and even though it clicks with him that youâre referring to a few minutes earlier when he smoked all in your face, sunghoon still frowns when you call him sick. âheâs just prioritising his studies, thereâs nothing wrong with that. at least he doesnât smoke while being all up my face,â
you two just bask in silence after that.
he doesnât have much to sayâ actually he does, but he doesnât know how to put it in a decent, coherent way. of course, your reaction wonât be the most pleasant if he told you he wants to punch jayâs good for nothing handsome face. he wonders what youâre thinking when he looks over at you. you seem happy whenever you talk about your supposed âfuture boyfriend,â yet itâs evident that youâre upset. he likes to think youâre having your doubts too. it's reassuring to him for some reasonâ because thatâs good for you, of course. if youâre upset, you have your doubts, and if you have your doubts you might not fall victim to whatever sick game jay is playing.Â
âoh, actually, he doesnât smoke,â but then you speak in a matter-of-fact way, as if comparing him to jay before giving him a mocking smile. âheâs better than you,â
those words ring in his mind for a good while.Â
you go back inside and he hears you shut the door to your room as an annoyed sigh falls off his lips. hearing that jay is nice from jake was another thing, but hearing to say heâs better than him leaves a bitter taste on his tongue. and he doesnât know why heâs feeling this way, these little changes in how he usually is, itâs new. itâs frustrating him out.Â
it isnât until his phone vibrates that heâs dragged out of his ocean of thoughts. his brows furrow when he notices the time, having realised that he basically wasted the entire noon even though he didnât attend classes after giving heeseung an excuse that heâs sick. his eyes squint at the sender, and then a groan escaping his lips when he opens to read it.Â
noh chaeun 4:15pm hoon! my last two classes have been cancelled are you up for some coffee?
sunghoon doesnât reply, rather leaving his classmateâs messages on seen, too bothered by his inner turmoil to spend time with her. itâs not like him to be this way, to be so bothered over something that doesnât concern him. youâre definitely not someone so significant and jay is definitely not the first guy youâre with. in fact, he has seen you kiss that guy from one of your classesâ as much as he hates to recall that incident nowâ and had sneaked up to tell your mother about it over the phone when she had called you.
youâve never had a serious relationship, not after meeting him. in his head, you always came back to him and heâd be lying if he hadnât joked about it with his friends during the initial few weeks after you had moved in. when he had mentioned to jake that youâre pretty and his friend had teased him a few days later, saying his âcrushâ was with this other guy, sunghoon, did in fact, say he doesnât care because you always come back to him; or rather his apartment, actually, but whatever fits the joke.Â
that day, he had a good laugh out of it and the joke died back then itself, more so after he started complaining about you to his friends. your habits, your actions, the things you say that tick him off, your quirky and quick remarksâ everything. perhaps, even about your habit of arriving late on weekends from parties and ruining his sleep because you forget the key most of the time, so he has to wake up and open the door for you, but not guys, never guys.Â
it hurts his head to even try and figure it out, to find the reasoning behind the pang in his chest every time you mention jay. he likes to think itâs just harmless competition although for no reason, even though both of them have done plenty of things to piss each other off just for the fun of it. sunghoon thinks he can live with it and walks back inside to the living room, until he sees you walking out of your room on phone with someone, the name of he who shall be mentioned rolling off your tongue again, and he finally pulls out his phone with a frustrated sigh.Â
sunghoon 4:21pm sure, iâll pick you up in ten
âactually, my mom wants to invite your family over for dinner this weekend,â the girl in front of him speaks with a smile after muttering a quiet thank you to the waiter after he gets their order. âsheâs very grateful for the donation your dad made for our art gallery and wants to thank properly,â
âtalk to my parents, then,â itâs a simple reply, too bland and forced for her liking.
sunghoon hasnât spared her a single look in the past ten minutes that theyâve been sitting together at the table. firstly, he doesnât know why he drove to a restaurant when she asked for a coffee. itâs not even close to dinner time, and the awkward yet sweet smile on her face didnât make it better for him, so he ordered starters and drinks to drag their little impromptu dinner out.Â
âsunghoon, to be honest,â chaeun tries to strike up a conversation again, despite the constant lack of effort from his side. âi want youââ
âhey, isnât that jongseong?â and he cuts her off immediately, finger pointing outside the glass panes beside them as he stares in the direction behind her with brows knit together in shock. âwhoâs that with her?â
âjongseong?â she repeats the name before turning her head, forming an âoâ when she spots a familiar figure through the multitude on the streets. âah, thatâs myung jihye. she has been pursuing him for a while. i guess he finally agreed,â
âtheyâre dating?!â his voice is full of surprise and disbelief unlike hers, so seemed to be happy for the girl instead. he stares outside with a heavy silence as the couple disappears between the crowd before looking at the girl in front of him.
âoh, i wouldnât say thatâŚi donât know but itâs possible they are.â it doesnât miss her attention how sunghoonâs fingers tighten around the fork. âeverybody in our major knows jihye has crush on him and theyâre probably a thing by now,â
and he wishes you were here with him right now so that he could show you the true colours of the dear guy youâve been going out with, the one whoâs supposedly âbetterâ than him. he wants you to realise that his words werenât false and he isnât sick, after all, and if youâd cry, he would be down to tell you itâs not the end of the world. that there are a hundred other guys better than jay, ones who wonât even breathe in front of another woman, whoâd treat you betterâ hell, i can treat you better if you ever give me a chanceâ and then a pause in his train of thoughts.
he looks at chaeun, whoâs looking back at him with a perplexed look and her own set of questions. his mind replays those words yet again, and he screams internally.
what the heck?!
surprisingly enough, sunghoon has been thinking about jay for the whole evening now, obviously not in a good way. his eyes keep travelling to the knife stand on the kitchen island occasionally and every single time, he has to convince himself that murder is not the right answer to anything.Â
for some reason, he canât stop imagining your smiles while on date with jay. not that he has ever seen thoseâ wish i couldâ as he slaps himself out of his state of mind yet again. not only that man is playing with you but on jihye whoâs apparently his girlfriend? he lets out the ugliest scoff known to mankind, because in sunghoonâs head, jay is a sick joke made by biology.
he waits for you to return from your shopping spree for about an hour, having beer as a company. he tries to stay awake although his eyes get droopy, and then every ounce of sleep leaves his body when he hears the door unlock.Â
âyn,â he practically jumps out of the couch, it almost scares you. he accidentally bumps into the living room table on the way, knocking an empty can of beer to the floor but too busy to bother picking it up. âi have to tellââ his eyes go down to the eleven shopping bags in your hands, as he counts them. ââ wait, what did you shop so much for?âÂ
âoh, i have to attend a family wedding next month,â his chest feels warm when he sees you smiling and looking so excited, and itâs making him go crazy on the inside because he doesnât know what is happening to him. for some reason, he starts imagining you in a gown, like the one you wore for the fresherâs party, but then he forces his mind to get back to the point. âiâm thinking of asking jay to be my date,â
and his heart drops down to his stomach.
this has to be a fucking joke, and he tells himself. for a split second, he thinks he didnât hear you properly. maybe you said jake because, well, jake did tweet a âdate for rentâ form five months ago when he needed money to buy tickets for a post malone concert that cost more than his gentle monster glasses ( not that he got any money but at least they got a good laugh out of it. )Â
you remove your shoes and put the shopping bags on the couch before sitting down as well, letting out a heavy sigh. âyou look like you saw a ghost,â
âa ghost wouldâve been better,â he catches you looking at him when he mumbles under his breath, sort of grateful you didnât hear him before sunghoon would rather not have another argument with you over how jay is not only a bad choice, heâs the worst choice.Â
he looks over at you when you pull out your phone, fingers fluttering over the screen as you text someone with a giddy smile. he considers telling you what he had seen earlier, but god, he loved to see you smile like that. the way you press your lips together to suppress a grin, looking ever so happy as if you have won a lottery. he doesnât think youâve ever smiled like that at him, and it aggravates him even more when he realises that you probably smile like that every time you see jay.Â
jay is getting everything he isnât deserving of, and it pisses sunghoon off down to his bones.Â
but again, he canât bring himself to tell you the truth. you look too happy for your own good, it pains him physically to even imagine your reaction when youâll come to know the truth. and then he pulls himself together, telling himself that it is your fault in the first place to trust someone like jay and ignore the warning signs he was giving you.Â
in the end, he leaves without having any further conversations with you, going to bed two hours earlier than usual even though he knows he isnât going to get any sleep. sunghoon is convinced heâs losing his mind, faster than a day ago actually. he lets out a frustrated groan and covers himself with his blanket, hoping to catch some sleep.Â
itâs going to be yet another long day tomorrow.
003. A CHANGE OF STANCE
sunghoon thinks youâre hot.
what the fuck?
âi asked something,â you remind, pulling him out of his trail of thoughts and he flinches slightly, making your brows furrow in confusion. âhow do i look?â
âhuhâ what? oh,â he takes in your appearance again. hair down, make up doneâ youâre wearing your favourite lip tint? and the best dress he has seen you in so far, looking so mind blowing it actually blows his mind and short circuits his brain.Â
even your favourite lip tint ⌠sunghoon doesnât know why heâs looking at your lips in the first place but little does he know heâs fucked.Â
absolutely. completely. fucked.
nonetheless, he manages to compose himself, clearing his throat and sitting up ever so elegantly on the couch, legs crossed, the magazine still in his hands. âyou lookâŚt-terrific,âÂ
you canât help but get even more confused at his words, wondering if it was a bad idea to even ask him for his opinion, even though you play along. âlike in a good way or a bad way?â
âin a terrific way,â he blurts out, eyes wide open as panic settles in slowly inside his stomach, and heâs stuttering, shocked, surprised, fucked, again. âyou look terrific in a terrific wayâŚso terrifically terrific in the most terrific way possible,âÂ
âare you high?âÂ
well, he would say he is! never in the two years that he has known you did sunghoon think heâd find himself floored, figuratively, and speechless, literally, at the sight of you. and heâs not saying you look bad on other days. you look good, in fact. good as in plain and presentable, but never in a good good way and definitely not in a hot way, of course.Â
âanyway, iâm going out. receive my parcel for me if it arrives,â you move to put on your shoes, taking a few seconds to pick between the two you think would suit your outfit. for a moment, you consider asking him to help you chooseâ as you look at him up and down peripherally, and he looks terrified. and you shrug it off, grabbing one of your loafers.
âwhere are you going?â he asks after a good minute of silence, sounding calmer than earlier as he gets off the couch and walks up to you. his nose scrunches up in disapproval as your hands move to one of your jimmy choos for a brief second, before you decide to go back to your initial pick.
âdate,â he takes a moment to register your words, despite this happening many times.
a date. he scoffs softly, looking away, arms crossed.Â
a date, again. sunghoon doesnât give a fuck.Â
âwith jay,â you continue, this time with a sweet smile on your face that makes his heart flutter for some reason. maybe, he does give a fuck.Â
now, sunghoon should feel bad for his fellow friend of a friend because heâs on a date with you, but instead he wants to snap his neck in two. the name is starting to give him an ickâ jay this, jay that. youâre hanging out with jay, having coffee with jay, going on a date with jay, shopping with jay, next would be going to bed with jayâ he pauses immediately, shaking his head. he doesnât really like the sound of that.
âwhatever,â he tells himself when you walk out of that door, looking all pretty and excited. he doesnât know why heâs getting so worked up over a date, that too with someone whoâ according to sunghoon and chaeunâ is dating someone else. he would pay to see you back home all miserable and he would point fingers at you and laugh, saying he told you already while you had your conscience and rationality clogged up with the possibility of getting dicked down.Â
but that doesnât change the fact that youâre on a date with jay fucking park. and youâre looking hot.Â
he sighs, slouching back on the couch, looking outside at the bright blue skies and then sighs again. he needs to be lobotomized.
itâs three in the noon and sunghoon is drowning himself in misery and pity. and soju.
a glass after another and then another, along with two empty bottles already on the table. even the owners are giving him a weird look and heeseung can only let him ruin his reputation so much.
âthere, there,â the senior takes the half empty bottle of soju from his hand and puts it aside, sighing pitifully at sunghoon. âthatâs enough for today. you need to stop drinking,â
âheeseung,â sunghoon looks up at the guy in front of him, looking horribly pitiful, eyes a bit unfocused from the alcohol settling in his system. âdo you know yn?â
and heeseung pauses for a few moments, not knowing what prompted him to ask this question. more so when you and heeseung went to the same highschool and even were in the music club. he nods slightly in doubt, raising his glass to his lips. âof course,â
âdo you think heâs pretty?â
âof course,â
âdo you think sheâs hot?â
âof course,â it takes heeseung quite a few seconds to respond and sunghoon sort of wants to punch him in the face for agreeing because he feels a certain way when others find you hotâ but he would claim itâs soju giving him heartburns. âwhy are you even asking this suddenly?â
âshe went on a date with jay,â he responds in the most miserable and sullen voice known to mankind. his shoulders practically slouching at the mention of he-who-shall-not-be-mentioned, finger tracing the rim of the glass in front of him with incoherent whines falling off his lips.
âso what?â jake interjects, beckoning the owner for yet another bottle for soju. it was necessary, as heeseung had warned earlier while arriving at the restaurant, considering sunghoonâs impromptu text about wanting to meet up.Â
âjake, did you hear what i said? sheâs on a date with jay. park. jong. seong,â the youngest spells out every syllable, sitting up straight as he gets defensive. âshe thinks heâs madly in love with her or something but sheâs wrong! the day i went out with chaeun, i saw him with jihye and guess what? chaeun said everyone knows theyâre a thing but apparently, yn doesnât know this. iâve told her so many times that he is not worth it but she wonât understand sheâs fucking dumb oh my god,â
andâŚsilence.
absolute fucking maddening silence that made sunghoon go even more insane before jake finally decides to speak, albeit in disbelief.Â
âthat monologue was unnecessary,â the foreigner pours in another glass for the three of them, filling them up completely, knowing this is going in a new direction yet a one that has been anticipated by both him and heeseung. âbesides, since when do you care about her?â
âsheâs my roommate,â
âyou like her,â heeseung exclaims, and silence follows again for a few seconds before sunghoon gasps scandalously, slamming his glass down on the table which turns a few heads in their direction as jake mutters an embarrassed apology for it.
âi donât,â sunghoon speaks in a voice much calmer than his previous tone, even leaning in towards the table to put emphasis on his words. jake pours himself another glass, scoff at his words while shaking his head mockingly which only pisses him off more.
âi knew this would happen,â heeseung continues, stating it as a matter of fact while nudging jake to pour him a glass as well. âsaw this coming from a mile away when you cried over her going on a blind date the last time you got drunk,â
he canât point out when that mustâve happened, but he doesnât refute his words, simply letting his eyes travel across the room for a few moments. the frown on his lips deepens when he meets jakeâs knowing gaze as he gets defensive once again. âiâm telling you, i donât like her,â
âyou said that about hello kitty but sheâs everywhere in your room now,â he turns his phone with the screen up when he feels jakeâs eyes on it, or particularly on the hello kitty sticker on his phone cover as the boy nudges him for another glass. âgo on, youâll need it.â
and sunghoon does, drinking more than he usually does thanks to jake filling his glass again and again for the sake of his sob story. the cab drops him in front of his apartment and he stumbles his way to the elevator. the silence sobers him out for some reason as he leans against the walls of the elevator and thinks about you.
perhaps youâre still with jay, sharing smiles and stories, kisses if youâre brave enough. he likes to think you are not, that you would chicken outâ it makes him feel better about himself. he imagines you holding hands with him and then shrugs that thought off his mind just as quickly, huffing at the bitter taste it leaves in his mouth as he walks out of the elevator once it reaches his floor.
sunghoon planned to take a shower and sleep, but every thought water downs to nothing when he spots you crouching next to the door with knees pressed up to your chest. he canât see your face, but he knows youâre sad, and it makes him stop in front of you, his heart accelerating when you look up at him with glistening eyes.
you look miserable.
and sunghoon has no reaction. heâs frozen, hands on his side as he stares at you. he was supposed to laugh at you for your stupidity. but you look so utterly sad and heart broken, god, he wants to punch jay in his throat. yet again, every single thought leaves his mind when his eyes fall back on your face, his hands instinctively opening out to you as he speaks in a voice as soft as a feather.
âletâs go inside,â
004. CANDLELITÂ
âhe said it was a bet,â you speak over the silence, fiddling with your fingers. you look up at sunghoonâ whoâs sitting with legs crossed in front of you while youâre curled up in one corner of the couch. âand that he never meant to drag it out for so long but he didnât know how to tell me,â
âa bet?â he scoffs bitterly, looking away for a fraction of a second before his eyes are back on you. âwhat an asshole,âÂ
itâs not the first time sunghoon has said that. in fact, asshole is all and the only word he uses to define jay. you still think it was a stretch, for jay isnât that bad. sure, he lied to you and played with your feelingsâ which you will never accept that you had feelings for him because you donât want to look patheticâ but he wasnât rude. well, at least he paid for all the three dates you two went on with the locations being some high end restaurants or bakeries.Â
on the other hand, sunghoon stares at you in silence. his eyes trace over your sullen face, and then to your fingers. for a second, he considers holding your handsâŚroommates can do that at least, right? to comfort one another, but then he catches you looking up at him and he averts his gaze to a distant corner. âdonât start crying now!â
âiâm not! i didnât even like him that muchâŚâ and he canât help but suppress his smile at the pout on your face as you refuse to look at him. itâs adorable, he never thought he would ever say that, but itâs true. your mannerisms are cute, youâre cute, and itâs eating his brain cells.
âis that so? you talked about him like you two were in love or something,â
âstop it!â
he stares at you quietly for a few seconds again. even though youâre being defensive out of embarrassment right now, trying to prove to him that youâre not heartbroken, sunghoon knows youâll be crying the moment youâre behind the closed doors of your room. on other days, he wouldnât care so much. not more than giving a few pats on a back and telling you to suck it up despite the concern in his voice. today, however, he feels differently.
you got played. itâs your heart thatâs broken. you feel like a fool, and yet sunghoon is sitting in front of you, trying to find words amidst awkwardness and hesitation. his heart feels heavy for you. itâs unfathomable on his part.
he suddenly remembers the day you mentioned that jay is better than him. he almost scoffs at that, again. well, you might harbour feelings for the american guy but at least sunghoon never had you holding back your tears. and he swears it would never come to that, if you ever have feelings for him because sunghoon would be a better boyfriendâ and then he comes back to his senses as soon as those words register inside his brain, cheeks heating up at the sudden thought before he clears his throat.Â
âdo you want ramen?â he manages to change the topic ever so swiftly, getting up from the couch and already walking to the kitchen without waiting for your response. apparently, getting away from you would ease his heartbeat, although hearing your voice has just as much effect on him as your presence or a mere thought of you.
âare you cooking?â
he lets out a breathy laugh at your words, getting two packs of ramen from the shelf. âof course, do you think iâd ask you to cook when you look like you went through a divorce and lost the custodies of all your three kids?âÂ
you frown at his words, although ending up laughing at them just a second later. itâs hard to not laugh at how silly he is sometimes, if you ignore his annoying tendencies. sunghoon puts the water to boil, fighting back a smile at the sound of your laughter. itâs better than seeing you all sad over a guy who doesnât deserve you.
you get off the couch as well, making your way to the kitchen, wanting to help him since he listened to your sob story. itâs quiet, and you hear slight rumbling outside as you take a quick look at the weather outside through the windows and then within a few seconds, thunder pierces through the silence hanging in the room.Â
sunghoon flinches visibly, freezing in his stance before the sound of heavy rain fills the kitchen. he turns on the electric stove and it blows out. all the lights in the apartment go out, darkness settling in and disturbed just as quickly as the room fills with bright flashes of light, illuminating your face for a short second before itâs dark again.
âwait, iâll get my phoneâ oh,â you reach out for the back pocket of your trousers, quickly get your phone and turn it on for the flash light before it powers off. âout of battery,â
he takes a blind step into the darkness when it thunders again and he notices you standing with your arms around yourself when the light surges in the room for a moment again. he hopes you wonât push him away if he puts his arm around you, but then you two bump into each other. a quiet apology finds its way out of your lips, and he can tell youâre flustered.Â
âwhere are the candles?â he asks to distract you from the fact that heâs holding your hand and pulling you aside gently, so you donât crash into each other again. your hands feel oddly warm in this cold weather, and it only flutters his heart even more.
âsecond shelf from the right i think,â your voice is interrupted by thunder again and your hands instinctively tighten around his fingers. and then a loud thud follows, causing you to gasp slightly. âare you okay?â
âi canât fucking see,â his voice is strained, oozing off pain as he lets go off your hands. you open your mouth to speak before he bumps into something again. something falls off the counter, perhaps the spoon by the sound of it and he apologises shortly after. itâs harder to navigate around his own apartment, more than he had imagined.
sunghoon manages to find the candles, setting them on the counter with pure intuition before lighting one of it up with the lighter he always carries around in his pocket. he turns around, almost bumping into you and before he could say anything, he sees you pressed up against one of the counters, face illuminated by the dim candle light.Â
youâre close, too close, heâs afraid you can hear his heart going crazy at the proximity. his mind is telling him to step aside but heâs too lost looking in your eyes, ( as you are too ) with you looking so impossibly beautiful under the faint golden glow.Â
âis this okay?â he whispers softly and you simply nod, not a word coming out of your mouth as you find yourself entranced by his face. sunghoon has always been aphroditeâs son, as his admirers would call him, and now that youâre seeing him so closely, youâre realising heâs something much more beautiful.
it doesnât slip your attention how his gaze settles on your lips for a quick second, your body tensing up at the sudden movement. your breath hitches as he leans closer, dipping his head down. your heart is racing while he feels like his heart has stoppedâ itâs timeless, as he finds himself just a few centimetres away from your lips, not wanting to stop even though he gives you a chance to pull back, whispering softly, âcan i?â
you nod. and sunghoon doesnât waste another second, capturing your lips with his.Â
itâs still at first, with your lips only pressed up together for a few seconds. itâs only a few seconds after he pulls back ever so slightly, and then tilts his head to the other side and goes in for another kiss, this time moving his lips slowly against yours. he feels you tense up for a brief while and then melting as you kiss him back, your fingers lacing around his tenderly. you flinch when it thunders again, breaking the kiss, but feeling shivers down your spine as you feel his breath on your lips.Â
he takes a few seconds, fingers ghosting up your hands to rest on your waist, tugging you closer as he brushes his lips against yours. âfocus on my lips,â
and he kisses you again, this time a bit more firmly, albeit itâs slow and gentle at first, his lips moving against yours in a way that's both comforting and exciting. but as the moments pass, he presses in deeper, more insistently. he lets his body press more firmly against yours, his chest touching yours as his tongue gently teases at the seam of your lips. it was working, the way his lips move against yours, it calms your nerves from the thunder but lights them up again when he nibbles gently on your lower lip, his fingers digging into the skin of your waist as he continues to kiss you so fervently.Â
it takes a passing second for you to realise what youâre doing. it surprises you, however not enough to pull back, or maybe the way his tongue feels against yours stops you from doing so. youâd be lying if you say you hadnât thought of kissing him beforeâ as early as two days after moving in. and now that youâre actually kissing him, everything feels like a fever dream.
he tucks your chin up with his fingers, pulling you in closer to deepen the kiss. he is a good kisser, sunghoon uses that to boast about himself, he has always been good at thisâ kissing, bragging, making your knees weak, and all you could do was melt into him wet and sloppy kisses that he plants on your skin.Â
he dips his head down to your neck, pressing sloppy, open mouthed kisses down the column of your throat, pulling your blouse aside to get a better access to your collarbones and shoulders. it felt like his body has a mind of its own, and heâs only following right behind. when a soft gasp leaves your lips, he moves back to your lips again, wanting to swallow every little sound you make that makes his mind haywire.Â
your breaths are heavy, hands around his neck with fingers grazing the skin of his nape. a movement that makes him moan softly in the kiss as he presses you against the counter, holding you between his arms. his hand that's resting on your hip moves up, tracing the curve of your waist and then sliding under your shirt to rest on your bare skin, lips curling up in a subtle smirk as he hears you gasp yet again.Â
âsunghoonââ you pull back, getting a quick glance at his half-lidded eyes when the lightning from the thunderstorm fills the room. he can still feel your laboured breathing on his lips and it does nothing but pull him in even more. after all, sunghoon would be lying if he said he didnât imagine doing this with you.
âweâll stop,â he pecks your lips, then trailing his lips down your jawline and to your neck, leaving a trail of gentle kisses along your skin. âwhen the candle goes out,âÂ
005. WHERE THE LINE FADES
when sunghoon wakes up the next morning, heâs met with cold empty sheets on the side and the memories from last night start flooding his mind. his heartbeat accelerates at the mere thought of you, especially how you were last night and every time his name fell off your lips in bliss and pleasureâ he wouldâve preferred waking up to you rather than emptiness.Â
he lays idly for a few minutes and stares at the ceiling, looking for where it all had started. was it the day you told him jay asked you out? maybe not, he doesnât like to think of himself as a jealous person. it mustâve been when you asked for his opinion on your outfit, he tells himself, you looked too good to be true that day. a few seconds more and he sits up with a soft groan, seemingly unable to find answers to any of his questions.
the weather seems to have improved as he notices the cosy sunlight outside. he slips on this shirt before walking down to the shared bathroom, rubbing his eyes softly and brushing his fingers through his hair with a sigh. he puts his hand on the door knob and looking up in surprise when it opens on the other side.
âoh,â the slight hint of shyness on your face doesnât escape his gaze, just like how enchanting you look this early in the morning with hair wet from the shower. you bite slightly on your lower lip before the awkwardness in the air is disturbed by your voice. âmorning,â
actually, it mustâve all started the day you moved in.
âmorning,â he replies back, rubbing his nape and looking away. the weight of questions lingering around makes it hard for him to look in your eyes. âwould you like to have breakfast?â
you nod and follow him into the kitchen after making a short trip to your room.Â
you steal a few glances at him while eating your breakfast, feeling your palms sweat at the thought of bringing it up to him. you avoid it for a few minutes, tossing the question around in your head while trying to make small talks about the ketchup, as bad as it could get. it feels a bit suffocating until you finally decide to address the elephant in the room. âso about last nightââÂ
âit was a mistake,â he cuts you off immediately, a heavy pause following shortly after. he looks up in your eyes for the first time since the morning. âletâs just forget it,â
and his words leave a bitter taste in your mouth. it couldâve been just another one night stand for you had it not been with sunghoonâ your roommate, the person you see everyday, the person who managed to give you butterflies the day you moved in. your fingers tighten around the spoon and you consider arguing back for a moment before you push that idea further back in your head.
it could be just another thing added to the lists of things that have been buried, like the time you and sunghoon almost kissed in the elevator last year.
âright,â you nod quietly, convincing yourself that itâs not a big deal. that heâs just another guy in your life like jay. actually, you donât feel like wanting to compare them anymore. you donât know where the line marking the difference fades. âof course, yeah,â
you donât even like the sound of that.
âyeah,â
you donât wait another minute before leaving your unfinished breakfast on the table and going to your room. his eyes follow your movements, conscience nudging him to chase after you. he contemplates it for a while, and then you walk out with your bag. âiâll see you after classes,â
and then sunghoon doesnât see you for the rest of the morning.
or the day, in fact. usually, you two end up bumping into each other at least once, but sunghoon doesnât see you around for the whole day. he skips spanish, deciding to go back to his apartment earlier than usual. he turns on the tv, deciding to watch a football watch with beer on the side while waiting for you. an hour passes, then another, and another.
thereâs no sign of you.
it isnât until he rings up a few of your friends that he hears that youâre staying over at giselleâs for the night. he wouldnât blame you, couldnât, not after everything that went down a night ago. you needed some space and so did he, but somewhere inside he wondered if he shouldâve been honest with you when you brought up that topic during breakfast instead of saying the first thing that came to his mind and dismissing it.
but, he dismisses it again, letting you be on your own for as long as you need, knowing youâd come back soon.
which you do, the very next day, much to his surprise. he had expected you to avoid him for at least a week. he notices the way you look when you return early in the morning, tired and exhausted as if you hadnât got a single ounce of sleep. thereâs silence engulfing him but you walk to your room before he could even open his mouth to speak. and then you ignore him for the rest of the day.
he starts feeling annoyed at some point, trying to come up with a reason for your actions. he tries striking up conversations with you and you give short responses, or just nod. when you walk away without answering him when he asked about your day, sunghoon wanted to grab your wrist and pull you back for a second, but he dismisses that idea just as soon as it pops up in his head. he doesnât even realise how quickly time passes in silence, not until he returns from heeseungâs apartment after spending two nights and one day with him and jake and checks his phone, realising itâs already close to being a week till youâre gone radio silent. he notices a few texts, mostly his study group that have been planning meet-ups to study, one that he rarely attends. his eyes especially squint in confusion at the texts from your mother, saying she had been trying to get in touch with you but getting no response.Â
he was on his way to his room when he heard the door unlock. a pause, the click of the doorknob strikes through the silence, followed by your footsteps. he takes a few seconds to sort out his thoughts before speaking. âyour mom texted me since you werenât picking up her phone,â
âmy phone died,â you give a simple response, almost too quickly for his liking. he lets his eyes follow your movements as you take off your shoes and jacket, putting it on the couch.Â
it takes him back to the day you told him about jay asking you out.Â
it was exactly the sameâ you arrived late, your phone had died. he was asking the same questions, albeit laced with annoyance. today, itâs hesitation, maybe slight doubt. sunghoon canât stop you from seeing jay, but the idea of you being with him bothers him more than expected. so, he follows up with yet another question.Â
âwhere have you been?â he asks, wanting to maintain a casual demeanour even though his heart is pounding in his chest just from being near you. he isnât expecting any response, actually, however heâs met with surprise when you actually reply.Â
âwith jay,â the words fall from your mouth as if youâre used to them, used to saying his name. thereâs an awkward pause before you clarify. âwe had dinner together. he wanted to apologise properly,â
âthatâsâ thatâs great,â he manages to squeeze out, but sunghoon thinks jay couldâve left you alone instead of meeting you if he wanted to apologise so bad.
you definitely had feelings for jay, even though they didnât go as deep for you to come home sobbing your eyes out the day you learnt the truth. to sunghoon, that is enough of a reason to hate him even more. just the mere thought of your heart sinking whenever youâd even think of jay made him fist his hands, nails almost digging in the palm of his hands.Â
sunghoon doesnât have much experience with girls. in fact, none at all. flings are one thing, and girlfriends another. he has had bothâ none too serious. the first time someone asked him out was in highschool, although heâs surprised it didnât happen much earlier. that time, just agreed to go out with her because his friends were in relationships too and he didnât want to fall behind. it wasnât soon before it turned into a competition after he got into university. not his best self, it isnât something heâs proud of now that he thinks about it.Â
and sunghoon isnât half better than jay in that aspect, although obviously not as bad as to bet on going on a date with another girl while he already has a girlfriend. however, if you had feelings for himâ as he thinks while watching you walk to your roomâ he wouldnât let a single tear fall from your lips.Â
âabout that night,â he follows you into your room, practically hearing his heartbeat echo through his ears. he gulps nervously when he notices you looking at him with a sliver of hope in your eyes. âit wasnât a mistake,â
âoh,â and you stop in your tracks, having no idea how to respond. an awkward pause follows as you bite your lower lip habitually before speaking, feigning a casual tone. âwell, we can still put it behindââ
âi donât want to,â he blurts out, cutting you off mid sentence. you notice how his voice is quiet as always, yet thereâs panic and anxiousness behind those eyes. âi mean, i tried to, but itâs difficult. youâre always on my mind,â
thereâs a silver of determination behind his voice. itâs surprising and equally anticipated. sometimes, he feels like he thinks of you every minute no matter what heâs doing. it was never this bad, these days even the regular banters between you two give him butterflies. and sunghoon understand that he might be far from your type in men. perhaps, you actually prefer someone like jay, who treat you to a fancy dinner to apologise, or maybe that guy from a few months ago who canât remember the name of.Â
you and sunghoon can be polar opposites and he would still be standing here, fingers fidgeting nervously with the hem of his denim jacket, looking so uncharacteristically out of place. he would choose to have this talk again, as much as he hates confronting, because it never about who your type is and always about the fact that youâre sunghoonâs typeâ as he realises this when you tuck a loose strand of hair behind your ear, looking at him with lips pressed together. you look cute, more so when youâre awkward, and he canât believe heâs coming to terms with this but god, he is falling for you.Â
he is falling hard, and falling deep. itâs nothing like him, you make him nervous, almost as if knocking him out of air whenever your eyes meet, and he would gladly suffocate to death. it was quiet with too many questions hanging above his head, and he noticed the way you fiddle with your fingers with the cutest expression known to mankind and sunghoon knew he was screwed.Â
âiâve got it so bad for you, yn, really,â âhe speaks as if heâs out of breath due to the nervousnessâ âreally bad. i tried to keep you out of here,â he said, pointing at his chest, cheeks flushing red as the words fell off his lips. âbut you wonât go, you just wonât.â
and sunghoon has never been soâŚout of place, for the lack of better words. itâs amusing, even to you, the way he is right now. the sunghoon from three weeks ago wouldnât even care but he, now, is pouring out all of himself, as if stripping him naked of his emotions and letting him see what lies behind the suave smiles and prideful words. as if showing you how easily you have him going crazy, right out of his mind and how he canât help but just stare blankly as his eyes travel down to your lips occasionallyâ as they do nowâ and it leaves you in a frenzy when you notice it.Â
âi canât stop thinking about that nightâ not in a weird way, justâŚâ and youâre just standing in front of him, trying not to laugh at his antics. heâs cute, a pause, what the fuck. and then you just go along with it, knowing thereâs no point denying it anymore now that you two are having this conversation.
you notice his little mannerisms, like how he canât look in your eyes for the life in him, how he keeps shifting his weight from one leg to the other. itâs adorable, especially the way he can have all the attention in the room with just his mere presence. thatâs sunghoon for you, with a presence so heavy itâs loud even when heâs silent. itâs so loud you can practically hear his mind, of all the words you know he wants to say but canât. thereâs a hitch in his breath, his eyes meet yours for the first time in the past few minutesâ i like youâ they say, and the next thing sunghoon knows is that youâre kissing him.Â
âi like you too,â you whisper against his lips after pulling back, your lips brushing against his. sunghoon feels like every single nerve in his body has been sparked, giving him goosebumps when you slowly intertwine your fingers with his.
of course, you know how he feels even before he could say it out loud. maybe, he just made it obvious for you to guess, otherwise sunghoon likes to think of himself as someone who can hide his feelings well. he lets go of your hands as soon as he feels you lace your fingers with his and instead, cups your cheeks ever so tenderly and leans down to capture your lips with his, smiling in the kiss. âi love you,â
ËáË : if you made it till here, i'm sending each one of u kisses >< thank u for reading, i hope u liked it. ps i had to put my heart aside and write jay's name ... never again will i put my man thru this huhu TT he's too good to do these things

Yandere sugar daddy made me giggle with him buying me a car đ Cuz I canât driveâŚThis then led me to think how fucked I am in a relationship with any of your yanderes cuz Iâm practically a sitting duck đŚ What am I going to do if I wanna get away from them? Wait on the side of the road to take a public transport bus? đ Or do I gotta bike my way to freedom? đ˛ đ
Speaking of vehicles thoughâŚfor the yanderes that this question is appreciableâŚwhatâre the cars they drive vs. the dream car or car that you think fits their aesthetic? đ
Also whoâs ok with me being their cute lil passenger princess? đ
girl, it's so embarrassing but I can't drive either đ
Atp, I think we'll need to Uber our way to freedom. Tip the drive 100% in case of damages caused by deranged exes.
Yandere boys and their cars
Yandere! Boyfriend definitely drives a Jeep wrangler. He's a big guy and he needs the extra space. I also see him as the more outdoorsy type, so a Jeep is perfect for all his hiking and climbing gear. He loves his car for the sole reason that you like sitting shotgun in summer, the roof down and your hair blowing in the wind. It makes for a damn pretty sight.
Yandere! State Trooper is assigned one of those State Police Dodge Challengers. All American muscle that thrums up through the seats. If there's ever a car chase or an evading suspect, he's first on the scene. On quiet nights, he'll head to the highway and gun it. V8 engine roaring even louder than the sirens. He's not supposed to, but he likes taking you for a drive now and then. He likes the way you cling to the dash and shake when he blows through the speed limit.
Yandere! Cop is a certified Ford pickup kind of guy. It's got space, it's got power but most importantly, it doesn't stand out. This is Middle America baby, they're everywhere. When he follows you, he knows for a fact you won't notice him. His only customization is the extremely tinted windows. Can't have you seeing his face when he takes all those pictures of you, now can he?
Yandere! Academic Rival has trustfund money to spend and his daddy's whole garage to choose from. For everyday, I can see him driving a BMW or Audi roadster. Sleek, sporty and modern. But on the weekends, when he's driving up the coast to his country house, he's definitely taking something vintage. He has a whole collection of luxury old money convertibles - every single one of them something you expect to see at St. Moritz.
Yandere! Mobster drives a Cadillac Town Sedan. It's got a powerful engine to outrun the pigs and plenty of trunk space to stash smuggled alcohol. He absolutely adores taking you on long drives. Windows open to catch the fresh air, picnic basket on the back seat, your head resting on his shoulder on the way home... What's not to love?
Yandere! Sugar Daddy is new money. And a tech nerd. So I see him mostly driving electric cars, maybe a Porsche Taycan for 'everyday use' (who the hell drives a Porsche like a regular commuter car? Your Croesus rich boyfriend, that's who). And something extra luxurious for weekends and date nights - probably something like the Yangwang U9. He loves messing around with the extra features and plugging the cars into his computer diagnostic system. Surprisingly, he's not that fond of actually driving. He much prefers you do it and let him enjoy the scenery.
Yandere! Werewolf drives a vintage cherry red Mustang. He bought it cheap off an older guy who hated the repairs, and spent all summer working on it. By extension, that meant you spent all summer sprawled across the backseat, thumbing through fashion magazines and listening to golden oldies on the radio. It's got plenty of space and if he was the kinda guy to make a move on a girl at the drive in, this would be the car to do it in.

Hello! First of all sorry for my bad english t.t, second thing i fell in love with how you write, i'm reading pretty much everything! I wanted to ask you if it was possible a scenario or headcanons (I leave you the free choice of how you feel best) of Leona, Mallues, discovering that S / O has been kidnapped and how they will behave once they have saved S / O. In case it is out of demand, I really apologize! Bye and thanks <3
Leona Kingscholar:
Leona is aggravated. The fact you were kidnapped while under his thoughtful care leaves the lion more agitated than he might normally be. He had made it known you were his and to steal you away without so much as a threatening note meant he was truly being insulted. He doesnât trust anyone but himself to get you home safely but he does need others to help investigate, so he can at least find the clues to piece together who was foolish enough to cross him.
Leona inspected you himself once you were safe, something so surprisingly doting you have to rub your eyes and make sure you werenât dreaming. He doesnât appreciate the implication that he doesnât care about you enough to do something that simple but he does order for you to be taken care of for at least a day, just in case there was a hidden injury or curse just waiting to strike. You can tell Leona is exhausted, that he likely hadnât slept a wink since you were gone, and even still he fought off his bodyâs basic needs until he knew he had someone he could trust by your side (which meant he slept in the infirmary nearby).
Malleus Draconia:
It feels like hell on earth is released once Malleus received the news that you had been taken. He had prepared you for such events but he had never suspected someone would be bold enough to actually go through with it. His own men are frightened of his anger despite it not being directed at them, the castle crackling with magical energy that zapped anyone unfortunate enough to gain Malleusâ ire. He would have you back, and he would have you back soon, before they laid a finger on you.
Malleus is the most relieved of all but his men knew they had avoided a fate worse than death by helping bring you home safely. He was a ball of emotions but his gratitude rose to the top once he could hold you in his arms again, unaware of the stress he had caused to those around him. All that mattered to him in that moment was that you were safe, back with him, and you would be more heavily guarded than ever until the enemy was entirely eradicated. You think itâs a bit drastic and Malleus doesnât mean to limit your freedom, but he is scared of you being stolen away permanently next time.

These CDs were exclusives that came with the limited edition DVD for the first season of the Diabolik Lovers anime! They basically depict short scenes in-between the story of the anime, and they're surprisingly fun so far. This one in particular takes place after Ayato and Yui had their little moment in the underground pool (â¸â¸â¸â˘ Ď â˘â¸â¸â¸) ⥠Have fun reading/listening!
âââ シ ・ďžâ: *.â˝ .* :âďž. âââ
[This CD takes place after Ayato threw Yui into the pool and kissed her. The scene starts when Ayato walks away after pulling Yui out of the water.]
00:00 Ayato: Thanks to her, Iâm soaking wet⌠Fuck, my shirt is clinging to my skin. This sucks.
[Ayato takes off his jacket.]
A: I know I shouldnât bother with her, but whyâŚ
[Ayato takes off his uniform shirt and hangs his clothes in front of the fireplace.]
A: My uniform should dry quickly in front of the fire.
[A fire crackles in the hearth. Ayato notices a presence nearby.]
A: Hey, Laito. The hell are you doing? If youâre going to be here, donât just silently stare at me like that! Creeps me out.
Laito: Hehe. You caught me.
A: Shut up. Youâre not fooling anyone.
L: Oh my, Ayato, youâre drenched. What happened? I didnât know it was going to rain today.
A: Tch. Youâre so predictable.
L: How so?
A: Playing innocent even though you know exactly whatâs goinâ on. Quit the theatrics.
L: Haha. Well, well, well⌠Looks like I hit a nerve. Hehe. I wonder if itâs because Bitchletâs lips tasted sweeter than you were expecting⌠Tell me, how was it? I want to know.Â
01:31 A: Shut up. Donât spy on me.
L: I wasnât spying or anything. I just so happened to stumble upon the two of you.
A: Then why the fuck were you at the pool? You hate swimming.
L: Huh? Look whoâs talking. Youâre the one who hates water. Besides, you didnât answer my question. What did her lips taste like? Stop dodging the question and tell me.
A: I donât feel like telling you.
L: Hehe. So it was that goodâŚÂ
A: Fuck off!
L: Haha! Youâre really getting worked up about it. Are you shaken, Ayato? How rare.
A: Iâm not shaken. Laito, if you donât shut up now, Iâm going to beat the shit out of you.
L: Now, now. Youâd better not. If youâre going to punch this beautiful face of mine, my nightly engagements with the opposite sex will turn sour.
A: Fuck off. I donât care.
L: Sorry, sorry. Donât be so angry.
A: Tch.
02:40 L: Really, though. That was her first kiss, wasnât it?
A: Of course. Iâm taking all of her firsts. Her fate was sealed when she showed up at our doorstep.
L: I wonder if theyâre really that good, those first times. But you have a big thing for firsts and being first after all, right, Ayato?
A: What are you talking about?
L: I mean, donât you think girls are even more tempting when they already belong to someone else? When someone other than me already loves her so badly, truly cherishes her⌠I fucking loathe that. Hehe⌠The thought of stealing that girl away is enough to get me off. Donât you enjoy stuff like that, too? Haha!
A: Pervert. Whatâs good about getting someoneâs sloppy seconds? A girl with fair, untainted skin, without a single bite mark⌠Whatâs better than being the first to take her?
L: Bitchletâs not exactly untainted anymore, though, is she? Hehe. I want to taste her for myself soon.
A: Do you seriously think Iâd let you?
04:00 L: Iâll make her feel really good, I promise. Iâll trace and lick all the little spots on her body that you've touched, Ayato... Iâll sink my fangs into her in the places where you bit her⌠Iâll savour her. Huh? But if I do that, I wonder who sheâll fantasise about, feeding on her⌠Or rather, I wonder whose feeding sheâll recallâŚÂ
A: I told you, I donât wanna hear it.
L: I wonder if itâll be me. Or you, Ayato. Or maybe someone else? Haha.
A: Laito, you prick, stop fucking around! Sheâs mine. Go hunt some other woman!
L: Oh, Ayato. If you get so worked up about her, Iâll only want her more.
[Ayato throws something Laitoâs way.]
A: Are you pickinâ a fight with me?
L: No need to make such a scary face at me, Ayato. Besides, you keep saying that sheâs yours, but so long as sheâs in this mansion, I have a right to taste her too, you know. If anything, sheâs our sacrificial bride.
A: Shut up! If I say sheâs mine, sheâs mine!
L: Come on, thatâs just your ego talking. Shuu thinks so too. Right, Shuu?
A: Huh? Shuu?
Shuu: Fuck off. Just let me sleep in peace. And even if you donâtâtodayâs a full moon, so donât expect much from me. Iâm tired.
L: Tired? Surely you actually mean that youâre brimming with power?
S: Whatever.
L: I love the full moon. On these full moon nights, all my worries dissipate and I canât help but focus on one single desire.Â
S: Heh.
06:00 A: Shuu, how long have you been here?
S: Doesnât really matter, does it?
L: Heâs been there the entire time, so heâs heard the entire conversation. Oh, I wish Shuu couldâve seen Ayatoâs Grand Dive and Bitchletâs rosy cheeks.Â
[Laito wraps his arms around himself in delight.]
A: Shut the fuck up!
S: I saw it.
A: You did?Â
[Ayato and Laito both shoot upright in surprise.]
A & L: Wait, you were there?
S: Tone it down. The two of you are way too loud. The underground pool is a good spot to take an afternoon nap.
A: Tch. You piss me off.
L: Heh. Seems like everyone knows what you were doing in there. Except, well, I guess we donât know how youâre really feeling about it.
A: Subaru was in his room and Reiji was holed up in his lab, right?
L: Well, yeah, but you never know. Subaru might have been listening in, and Reiji might have picked up on it during his experiments as wellâŚÂ I'm not sure about Kanato, though.
07:15 S: He was there.
L: Huh? He was at the pool?
S: Yeah. He was looking in from the terrace on the second floor.
L: Hahaha! So he was! He was making such an disinterested face earlier, but in reality he was keeping a firm eye on her.
A: Ugh.
L: Feeding in the water is pretty nice though, isnât it? I enjoy it too. When youâre underwater, you can really feel the breath and body temperature of your prey. As soft as a little bird, and warm, and so fickle⌠Itâs just too good.
S: I hate feeding underwater.
L: Oh, so Shuu has experience with it as well. I never knew.
S: It takes more effort than it usually does. And when the waterâs cold, the blood turns colder as well.
L: Thatâs a good point. But to be fair, I like blood when itâs cold just as much as when itâs warm.Â
S: Anyway, I use the pool to sleep.Â
L: Well, thatâs unusual. Heh.Â
A: If the poolâs such a good place to sleep, why arenât you there all the time? Why were you there just to bother me?
S: This is a bother. Ugh⌠Itâs because the moonlight is the prettiest from there.
L: Aha, so you do like the full moon after all!
S: I never said I hated it. Besides, I was there first. Then Laito came, and you, Ayato, got there last. You shouldâve just gone to your own room.
A: Tch. Shut up. I came in here to dry my uniform because this is the biggest hearth in the mansion.
S: Also, Ayato, put some clothes on. Youâre half-naked and itâs repulsive.Â
09:27 A: What? You lifeless prick. I have no reason to listen to you call me repulsive. Says the one who takes baths fully clothed. Whoâs the more repulsive one then?
S: Itâs not like I do that because I like it. Itâs because itâs too bothersome to take anything off.
L: Come on, letâs just leave it.
S: I agree.Â
L: Hm?
[Laito sniffs the air.]
A: What? Is someone else here?
L: No, but doesnât it smell like somethingâs burning?
A: Huh? Like somethingâs burning?
[Ayatoâs uniform has caught fire.]
A: Ah!
L: Woah, his shirt! His jacket! Theyâre on fire!
S: Theyâll catch fire if you put them too close to the hearth.Â
A: Why didnât you say anything, then? Fuck!
[Ayato throws his clothes on the ground and tries to stomp out the flames.]
L: Ah, what a shame. You should honestly tell Reiji what happened, and he might get a new one for you. That you jumped in the pool to save Bitchlet from drowning, and that your clothes caught fire when you hung them out to dry. Hehe.
A: You asshole. You makinâ fun of me?
L: Not at all. I just want to see Reijiâs reaction when you tell him. I wonder how concerned heâll be for Bitchlet.Â
A: I donât even wanna know. Listen. Iâm telling you one more time. Pancakeâs mine. Donât lay a finger on her.
S: Youâre in no position to order us around.Â
11:06 L: Yeah, tell him, Shuu!Â
A: What? Want me to tell you again?
S: Ugh, shut up. I want no part in this.
A: Shuu! I wasnât done talking!
S: What? Hurry up and say it.
A: Do not lay a finger on her.
S: I canât make any promises.
[Ayato grabs Shuu by the collar.]
L: Huh! What a turn of events. This is the first time Shuuâs expressed interest in our sacrificial bride. Hehe. This is getting interesting.
A: For fuckâs sake, Laito, shut up.
S: Itâs not like Iâm interested or anything. Sheâs only prey. Nothing more, nothing less.
A: If itâs prey youâre after, go hunt somewhere else.
12:01 S: Thatâs too bothersome. We have a living sacrifice at home, after all.
A: Tch.
L: Haha! This is too enjoyable. Hey, if this is the situation weâre in, why donât we place bets on whose fangs Bitchlet will become addicted to? Thatâll make things so much more rewarding.
A: Huh? The fuck are you trying to say? Of course it would be mine!
S: I donât care about the feelings of my prey.
L: Huh? You donât care?
A: Yeah, right. Laito, thereâs no reason to hold a competition. Itâs obvious that she likes my feeding the best.
L: [To Shuu:] Are you fine with that?
A: Get a life, Laito.
S: I agree.
A: Iâm going back to my room.Â
[Ayato walks off.]
L: HuhâŚ
S: Me too. Iâm sleepy.
[Shuu walks off as well.]
L: Huh? You too, Shuu?
S: The moonâs waning, you know.
[Shuu closes the door behind him.]
L: Ah, how boring. We vampires have infinite time on our hands⌠If only theyâd play along with my games for once. Itâd do them good to have some fun.
[Laito heads for the door.]
L: Hehe. Bitchletâs feeling something. Feeling something that I know all too well. And Iâll be the one to expose it. The first one to expose it, that is.Â

Roger Barel Main Route - Mad Love Chapter 21
As usual, canât guarantee 100% accuracy on this. Iâm doing this for archiving purposes and you can probably find a better translation out there.
To decide my future as his lover, Roger gave me one final trial.
âHowever, I was still unaware of one unshakeable truth hidden from me.
--
Alfons: I wonder if that manâs revealed something important to Kate.
Elbert: Something important?
Alfons: The cost that comes with that manâs egoistic way of life.
Elbert: âŚ
There was a hint of sorrow in Elbertâs downcast eyes.
Elbert: Is thatâŚsomething that will make Kate sad if she knew?
Alfons: Yes, if you were to liken it to a fairytale⌠It is the worst kind of ending.
--
Roger and I started working making an antidote for the condemned.
âŚBut making it was more difficult than we imagined.
Roger: âŚThe hellâŚ
We had repeated the experiment many times, but it always failed whenever we got close.
Roger: Ahhh, canât even find a clue.
(Roger looks so troubledâŚ)
Roger: âŚThe Privy Council and the Royal Hospitalâs doctors used my research materials to synthesize a drug and then were poisoned by it. Meaning, if we reverse engineer it, then we can make an antidote.
Roger sighed as he thought over his past experiments.
Roger: But we havenât been able to. What are your thoughts, Kate?
(Thinking about it in simple termsâŚ)
Kate: We made a mistake along the way. OrâŚOh, perhaps our process has been wrong since the beginning? What if they used a method other than whatâs in your researchâŚ!?
Roger: Yeah, wellâŚthat could be why we canât make an antidote. Itâs highly likely those guys combined my research with âsomeone elseâsâ.
Kate: What do you mean âsomeone elseâ?
Roger: If I knew, then it wouldnât have been this difficult.
Meanwhile, the criminalsâ symptoms were getting worse. Worst case scenario, they die before they can even be condemned.
(Like Roger said, we â canât let them run away by dyingâ)
(We need an antidote immediatelyâŚ)
Time was limited.
I frowned as I started getting impatientâŚ
Kate: WooooahâŚ
Rogerâs pressed against the crease between my brows with a finger.
Kate: What was that for?
Roger: It was messing up my cute puppyâs face. Your earnest natureâs a good trait, but donât overthink.
Weâre already short on time
But Iâm feeling frustrated
I donât want regrets⌠+4 +4
Kate: I donât want regretsâŚ
Roger: Timeâs running out so how âbout we donât think for now. Thatâs how most would feel, right? Though surprisingly, taking a step back can be a shortcut.
Roger grinned.
Roger: So how âbout you take a break and run an errand for me?
Kate: An errand?
Roger: Yeah, itâs a kind of errand only you can do. Iâm gonna keep researching, but I got someone to go with youâ
Before he could even finish his sentence, the labâs door opened.
Alfons: What is it. Why are you calling people over all of a sudden?
Roger: âŚSee?
(âAlfons of all people?!)
--
The errand Roger wanted me to run wasâ
To buy flowers to lay on Lanceâs grave at the public cemetery.
It was something I didnât manage to do the other day because I got kidnapped.
(The fact that I wasnât able to visit Lanceâs grave was something thatâs always lingered in the back of my mind)
(Roger must have noticed and decided to send me on this âerrandâ)
Despite how straightforward he was, Roger looked after others.
Kate: âŚ
I placed the flowers in front of his grave and closed my eyes.
In my mind I saw Lanceâs faint smile. He had left this world without knowing that he was cursed.
(...Rest in peace)
(May you meet your sweetheart in heaven)
I then opened my eyes and twilight winds swept my hair.
I followed where the wind blew as I looked over the graves.
(So many people are resting hereâŚ)
It would be nice if all deaths could end with a âhappily ever afterâ as beautiful as the and the ones in fairytales.Â
However, life wasnât that simple.
(I wonder how many people lost their live while holding despair in their hearts)
Kate: âŚ
When an inescapable sadness gripped at my heartâ
Kate: Woah! Hey! What do you think youâre doing Alfons?
I quickly covered my ear and the person who had just breathed on it frowned in disapproval.
Alfons: Oh my, what an accusatory reaction. Had you been feeling sentimental for any longer, you may have been taken to the underworld. I was only bringing you back to reality.
Kate: âŚUm, thank you?
I was baffled, but thanked him and Alfons gave a shady smile.
Alfons: Yes, of course. Youâre welcome. âBy the way, Kate. Your month as Fairytale Keeper will be over soon. You will be out of the darkness and free! Please forget everything youâve witnessed here and have a fresh start. Work hard once youâve returned to your old life.
(HuhâŚ)
I blinked like an idiot at his wide smile.
Kate: Um, I donât have any plans on leaving Crown or my position as Fairytale Keeper.
(I havenât told anyone about this, not even Roger)
(Why did Alfons bring this up�)
Alfons: Meaning?
Kate: I still havenât received Victorâs approval yet, so this is just my personal wish, but⌠I would like to continue being Fairytale Keeper after the month has passed. And I want to help Roger with his ongoing research on the Cursed.
I had planned to tell Roger that after we finished with the antidote.
Alfons: Though this decision is typical of an earnest woman such as yourself, itâs difficult for me to understand. Our curses are of no relevance to your life.
Kate: No relevance?
Alfons continued, no warmth in his voice at all.
Alfons: Yes, in the end, itâs someone elseâs business. Did you know that you cannot work for the sake of others forever?
Kate: âŚItâs true that Iâm not cursed. And I may never fully understand them. ButâŚthis isnât someone elseâs business. We met and you became someone important to me.
Alfons: âŚ
Kate: Also, Iâm not just saying this out of altruism.
(There isnât a single part of me thinking about sacrificing myselfâŚ)
My desire isâ
Kate: IâmâŚdefinitely the one that wants to see Roger overcome despair the most.Â
Alfons: That muscle-glasses egoist is leaving your valuable life with. I find it difficult to believe. You havenât forgotten about our fated âtragic endsâ have you?
Kate: Wellâ
I was about to tell him that it wasnât something Iâve ever forgotten about, but a sense of discomfort held me back.
Alfons: Roger is doomed to be âruined by his own guiltâ... I do wonder what sort of destruction awaits him. Ah, itâs horrifying to even imagine it.
(...Thereâs something strange)
(Alfons has had nothing but harsh words today)
(Itâs like heâs trying to make me madâŚ)
Normally, Iâd feel offended if someone doubted what I said in confidence and tried to discourage me.
(Yet, I donât feel angry or annoyed)
Instead, it was like heâ
(It was like he was trying to free me from getting my feelings hurt. At least, thatâs what it felt like to me)
Kate: âŚAlfons. Is there a reason why youâre trying to stop me from continuing on as Fairytale Keeper?
Alfons: âŚAha! Do you think Iâm some sort of saint?
Kate: Please donât avoid the subject.
There were still many more truths I didnât know about them and Crown.
(Even soâŚ)
Kate: Iâm a Fairytale Keeper. âŚI may be inexperienced, but I do know that youâre the type to hurt people.
Alfons: You insist on believing that there is good in me. I like your views. Then, I shall live up to your troublesome expectations. âKate.
His voice when he said my name carried a different feeling from before.
Alfons: If that man did not have very long to live, would you still choose to stay by his side?
Kate: ââHuh?
--
When we returned from visiting the cemetery, I stood in front of Crown Castle.
(I need to go back to researching, quicklyâŚ)
But what Alfons said continued replaying in my head and I couldnât move.
(...I canât go back inside yet. Not when Iâm not sure if I can act normal in front of Roger)
At that momentâ
Ale: Woof.
As if to rescue me, a cute, fluffy mass came running toward me.
I picked Ale up and headed to the palace library.
(Thereâs not a lot of people around, itâs quiet, and Iâm less likely to run into someone)
(Letâs calm down for the time beingâŚ)
I walked around and browsed the shelves to distract myself.
HoweverâAlfonsâ words still continued to replay in my head.

Shoresy x Reader
=Meeting the team=
================================================
================================================
At the beginning of a practice the blueberry bull dogs were getting ready. That was until Shorsey stood and took center stage of the changing room. Seeing he wanted to announce something the boys all got quiet. âAlright. Announcement,â Shoresy called. He looked to his left and to the right. âY/Nâs come home,â his announcement was met by cheers of excitement from all those who were a part of the pervious team. âI hope she brings her cookies,â Sanguinet whispered with a giddy smile. âOf course sheâs bringing her fucken cookies. What do you think this is? A fucken funeral?â Shorsey snarked. âDosenât she bring cookies to funerals as well?â Michales asked. âShut the fuck up Michales,â Shorsey yelled. âWho the hell is Y/N?â Hitch asked. âSheâs Shorseyâs girl,â Fish said with a grin. Catcalls, cheers, wolf whistles, and everything in between were heard as Shoresy blinked with a plain face. âRIght well, get that reaction out your system,â he said spitting into his cup. âWhen she coming in?â Sanguinet asked. âFifty mintues or so,â Shorsey shrugged. âIs she bringing cookies?â Fish asked. Shorsey sighed deeply, widening his eyes, daring Fish to ask it again. âAlright, some of you already know the rules. But since there are a few new fuckers here, lets get a few things straight,â Shoresy spit into his cup clearing his throat. âShe is my future wife. You make a move on her. Iâll move your permanent residence to the grave. Sheâs an amazing fucken woman and sheâs got a heart of gold as big as the fucken Atlantic. She can take a joke and can hand it back twice as hard, but you better fucken know your limits. If she offers you a cookie fucken take it. Theyâre the best fucken things in the world. If your allergic give your balls a tug and eat the fucken cookie,â Shoresy took on a surprisingly serious tone as he addressed the room. âThere worth it,â Sanguinet grinned like a little kid to encourage the new arrivals. âDamn fucken right they are,â Shorsey said. âAnyway. Treat her right. Disrespect her my and my stick will disrespect your whole top row. Understood?â he asked. Hesitant but understanding, nods were passed around the room.
âDid I hear Y/Nâs back?â Ziig asked, poking her head into the locker room with an excited smile. âY/Nâs back?â Miig asked, looking around the room expectantly. âJesus christ we could have been naked,â Shorsey said, turning to glare at the two. âDonât worry, we didnât bring our binoculars,â Ziig snapped. âYeha you would need binoculars to see over that big fucken nose,â Shorsey said. âFuck you Shorsey,â Miig glared. âFuck you Miig, barging in to the locker room is probably the only time youâll be able to see a naked guy,â Shorsey bit back. âFuck you Shorsey,â Ziig glared. âFuck you Ziig, go fetch a bone,â he turned away. âSheâs coming in about fifty minutes,â Sanguinet said. The two sisters excitedly ran off to tell Nat and to wait for your arrival. âI thought your room had a feminine touch,â Goody commented. âReally, what gave it away there bud? The tampons or the dresses hanging in the closet?â Shorsey asked. âThe plant in the cute little shark pot,â he said. âYe that thing is pretty cute,â Shorsey muttered. âRight lets get to it,â he clapped. Throughout practice, many playersâ eyes would shift to the entrance awaiting the excited newcomer. The new members were all excited to see who had managed to collar the great untamable Shorsey. And then it happened. The doors opened, and every head turned towards it. And there a woman walked. She was tall sporting beautiful black heels set under legs that could make any mans head snap round. Her figure was perfectly proportioned, a tight waist and a bountiful bosom. Her face was perfectly set atop smooth tanned skin and piercing blue eyes. Her eyebrows were perfectly arched and pointed and her hair curled around her head. Not a single strand was out of place. Whistles echoes from the boys as she came to a standstill flicking some hair over her shoulders. Shoresyâs face broke into an excited grin. âHi I think Iâm in the wrong place. Iâm looking for the platies studio?â she said, smiling at the group of handsome man. âOh thatâs down the street. About two building down to the left,â a small voice spoke up from behind her. Having entered at the same time there was another woman behind the first. She was wrapped head to toe in winter coats and a beanie on her wavy brown hair and a scarf was piled around her neck coming up to her nose, leaving only a set of rosy cheeks and brown eyes poking out. She was much shorter than the woman, only a whopping 5â2.
âOh thanks,â the woman quickly turned on her heel and walked out. âMY GOD! WHAT A FUCKING STUNNING WOMAN!â Shorsey yelled out. A beaming smile broke onto your face as you shuffled further into the room, pulling your scarf down. âYour too late. Sheâs already out the door,â you called back. âMY GOD HER VOICE IS BETTER THAN HER ASS! SOUNDS LIKE THE FUCKEN PERLY GATES OPANING TO HEAVAN,â Shorsey called as he started to skate over. âYou wish my gates would open!â you called. âWHATâS IT GONNA TAKE? A NICE LITTLE BACK MASSAGE? A BIG BUCKET OF FRYED CHICKEN? YOU ME AND A COUPLE BEERS?â he asked, his voice going softer and softer as you made your way closer to the barrier. âHow about a kiss?â you asked, feeling the same giddy butterflies the man always made you feel. âMissing tooth and all?â he asked with his little cheeky smirk. âMissing tooth and all,â you smiled as you both stopped at the barrier. âCome ere you,â with one swoop his arm reached over the barrior, capturing your waist and heaving you up, planting his lips on yours. You wrapped your arms around his neck, pulling him close. You had been away from each other for an entire month so you can say the kiss got a little heavy. But it was still so gentle and romantic that cat calls were heard from behind him. âGod I missed you so much,â Shoresy pulled you to sit you on the barrier as he looked up to you like the goddess he believed you were. âI guess I missed you a little to,â you grinned gently pinching his chin. âWell I missed you like mad. Like I literally almost went mad. At one point I saw a bun of bread that reminded me of your cheeks and I almost kissed it,â he admitted honestly. You swear the manâs main goal was just to make you smile. âAss or face?â you asked as he pulled you closer. He thought for a hard moment. âWell it was your face, but I guess it could resemble your ass. Wait no it dosenât have that cute little,â your hand gently slapped his chest, shutting him up, but he smirked in its place. âGod I love you woman,â he shock his head. âLove you too,â you smirked, reaching up to give him another little peck. âYou gonna introduce us Shoresy or should we give you two the ice,â one of the men called. You blushed, ducking your head. âGet your asses over here then,â Shorsey called. âReady to meet the new team?â he asked as they all made their way over.
âDepends, are they good?â you asked with a cheeky smile. âYeah well, theyâre not the worst,â he shrugged sliding to the side to face the team and put you of full presentation, his arm coming to rest across your lower back to keep you balanced and his hand on your thigh behind you. âRight from left to right. Goody, JJ, Hitch, itâs funny because his full name is Ted Hitchcock and if you say it fast, it sounds like a ten inch cock. You got Dolo, you already know Mitch,â âAs a Goalie?â you asked with a propped eyebrow. âWhat? Donât think it suits me?â Mitch asked. âShut the fuck up Mitch,â Shoresy snapped. âItâs a new look, you enjoying it?â you asked. Mitch smiled bashfully with a nod of his head. âThan thatâs all that matters,â you added. âGod fucken damn. So soppy,â Shorsey smiled up at you. âShut it you,â you gently nudged him. âHoly shit, heâs whipped,â Dolo whispered to JJ in French. âAh some French speakers. I recently went to Quebec. Beautiful place,â you spoke in French earning wide eyes from to two. âSheâs bilingual. Christ mate how did ya manage that?â Hitch asked. âAnyway. Lads, this is Y/N. Y/N the lads,â Shorsey nodded between you two. âHow ya going mates?â you asked, your accent coming clear through. âWhat did she say?â JJ asked. âNow you know how we feel, you fucken whale,â Shoresy snapped at him. âShoresy,â you scolded him softly. âApologies, you fucken beached whale,â he added. âGood christ man sheâs not American is she?â Hitch asked. âWorse, Australian,â you said with a wide smile. âAustrian?â Dolo asked. âNo, Australian. Itâs got an L in it,â Goddy said. âWhatâs the difference?â Dolo asked. You chuckled as you watched them interact. âSo way back when the English rounded up all the criminals and fucked em of to the death trap of a tit fuck huge island. Thatâs where sheâs from,â Shoresy said, nodding to you. âSo sheâs a brit,â Hitch asked. âFuck no,â you chuckled. âAnd whoâs that handsome stud over there? Mister coach now?â you called across the rink to Sanguinet who smiled. âAnd get ready. This oneâs gonna be hard to remember,â Shoresy said. âOh god really. How did your brain go with that one? Need a tune up yet or is it still puting along?â you asked knocking your knuckle on Shoresyâs helmet. âNot gonna lie after it saw you it started to short circuit a bit,â he admitted with a shrug. You chuckled as you looked at the next three. âReady?â Shorsey asked. You nodded. âJim,â âHello,â the first with a mohawk nodded to you. You nodded back. âJim,â âMorning,â the one with long hair greeted. âAnd last but not least, Jim,â âItâs a pleasure to meet you Y/N. I hope we get to know each other better,â the last one said with a small smile. âSo Jim, Jim, Jim, Teddy, Dolo, Goody and JJ,â you called them all off. âThat sounds aâbout right,â Shoresy nodded. "Y/N!â you all looked behind you as Miig and Ziig barreled down the hall towards you. âFuck me,â Shoresy groaned, holding you tighter. Knowing what was going to happen, you turned to him. âIll see you after practice ok,â you said leaning forward to pepper the mans face in kisses.
âYOU CANâT HAVE HER!â Shoresy yelled in defiance, cadging his arms around you. Miig and Ziig almost knocked you off the barrier as they hugged you. Going on and on about how they missed you. âJesus christ,â Shoresy grunted as he tried to move away from the two while still holding you. âWell sheâs ours now, sluts,â Miig said, grabbing your legs and giving you a tug. âIâll see you soon,â you said, giving Shorsey a last long kiss. âGross,â Ziig gagged, pushing Shoresyâs face away from yours and shoved herself between you two. âI promise you, Iâm gonna treat you so well tonight,â Shoresy smiled his little love sick smile as he still held on to you. âOh yeah?â you asked. âOh yeah. Youâll regret every second you spent away,â he said. You smiled as you were finally pulled away and basically kidnapped. And boy that night did Shoresy keep to his promise. Yet the best moment of it all, Shorsey would admit was just having you in his arms that night. Tucked into his side, completely tuckered out from the pervious activities. The next morning Shoresy would walk out of his room earning nods of respect from his fellow roommates who, despite your very best efforts, heard just how skilled Shoresy was. You werenât able to look your new roommates in the eyes for at least a week after that.

Oh boy! I love this! I'm gonna do it as romantic because why not? I love this li'l twink spider so much đ đĽ°
đ
At first he's just as over the top sexual with you as he is with everyone else,
That is until he realises he might actually have feelings for you.
Then he'll try his hardest to tone it down, really he will! Though he's still likely gonna make an insane ammount of innuendos, inappropriate jokes, or just plain sniggering at every conceivable comment from you or anyone else.
Once he's certain of his feelings, he'll be really hesitant to approach you about them, thinking that you wouldn't want anything to do with him after he drops that bombshell.
It's likely going to take a lot of encouragement from the others for him to even contemplate confessing to you, deep down he's so insecure and scared he'll lose you for good.
It will probably have to be you who approaches him, to be honest; He's fine with casual stuff no matter how kinky or depraved it may be, but actual feelings? What the hell is he supposed to do with those?!
Once you do open up to him, he has a mini panic attack; you actually like him back? How? What? Aren't you like the exact opposite of him? Flustered Angel is adorable TM
There will likely be a lengthy talk about what your limits are so he knows not to overstep any boundaries, but damnit, he's determined to make this work! He doesn't develop feelings like this often, or at all, really, so this is big for him.
Surprisingly, he ends up being fine with it all; something he once told you when you were feeling insecure was that sex was his job. You are not his job. That's how he's fine with it. He doesn't love very often, if ever, so for him to love you was something special that he wasn't about to give up for something as trivial as sex.
This still doesn't mean he'll stop being a dirty minded little shit. Sorry, that's just Angel.
Expect lots of cuddles. He loves cuddles, in fact, and he will wrap all six arms around you like you're a teddy bear and *cling*.
You can't tell me that he isn't cuddly. Look how fluffy he is!!
He likes to be the little spoon a lot of the time but isn't opposed to switching things up from time to time if you want.
He'll give you lots of kisses, too.
He's a very affectionate spider, and he needs some way of showing it!
Not shy when it comes to pda either. He'll love it if you hug or kiss him in public, and honestly, showing him genuine affection in public probably one of the few times you can actually get him to blush!
He still can't decide whether he prefers when you sit on his lap or him on yours during movie nights, but either way he loves it.
Is super defensive of you. If anyone says anything bad about you, he will make them pay one way or another. No one, NO ONE, speaks ill of his (y/n).
And vice versa: if anyone starts badmouthing him +/ your relationship, you are the first to jump to his defense.
Bottom line here: he loves you and accepts you and would do pretty much anything for you... but still struggles to tone down the filth most of the time.

Working on a lee!Striker, lers!Fizzarolli and Blitzø fic, so uh..lmk what you think so far đŤ
Just Clownin' Around (WIP)
------------------------------------------------
Some say that singing a whole âfuck youâ song to your boss and then quitting your job while saying goodbye in a surprisingly good impression of your boss's accent might not be the best thing for one's mental health. But why should Fizzarolli care? He's thriving in Hell with his huge boyfriend and rekindled childhood friend, for fuck's sake.
Anyway, since the whole thing with Mammon, Fizzarolli had a bit of a thirst for more revenge gnawing at the back of his mind, thinking about all of his and Blitzø's shared enemies, and how much he'd like to see them bleed. Of course, when he told Blitzø about this vengeful fantasy of his, the other imp was more than enthused about getting some sweet, sweet payback. After all, Blitzø's company had been a bit short of the thrill of homicide lately, anyway.
So it was settled, the two imps would meet up at a bar and discuss the finer details.
-Lilâ time skip-
âHmmâŚbut which one do you think deserves to be hunted first? Striker, or Crimson?â Fizz asked, taking a sip from the straw in his glass of Beelzejuice. âWell, Crimson may be a bit off limits anyway, Mox probably wouldn't want his big daddy to get hurt unless it was by his doing.â Answered Blitzø, absentmindedly tracing one of his fingers along the cracks in the wooden bar counter top.
So that just left StrikerâŚâBut, that western cocksucker is most likely the only thing stopping Stella from killing Stolas herself. Plus, I promised Loony that I wouldn't kill anyone today because itâs her birthday.â He continued, going silent for a while, just in case Fizz was brainstorming and didn't want to be interrupted. And apparently, he was.
â..Wait, he's super self-confident. Which means, all we have to do is exploit a weakness that's embarrassing enough to catch him off guard, and threaten to blackmail him with it. Right?â It wasn't a terrible idea. But, what the hell kind of a weakness would have such an effect on a guy like Striker?
Contemplating his inquiry, Blitzø skimmed through his memories with Fizz, trying to pinpoint any specific events that involved embarrassing weaknesses that an imp would have..and wouldn't you know it, the murderous imp finally came up with a reasonable suggestion.
âEy, Fizz, remember when we'd have those stupid dares where we'd take turns in watching each other perform, and then point out any flaws afterwards by..tickling the other person in a way that accommodates to those flaws?â Blitzø commented, smiling slightly at the fond memory, but a little flustered about the topic as he was usually the more flawed one when performing. Thankfully though, the other imp only really picked up on the main idea that he was putting down, a wry smirk now building up on his face at the thought of using this against Striker.
âIt's perfect! We won't hurt Striker, but if we record him being humiliated like that, we could threaten him with the blackmail of posting the video!â Fizz replied cheerfully, slamming down a $10 bill on the counter before gripping Blitzø's arm and yanking him out of the bar. Fizz dragged him eagerly all the way down to the Wrath ring, ignoring the whiny protests that spewed from his friend's mouth like gunfire and instead focusing on tracking down Striker, while keeping his phone safe so that they can record the whole ordeal when it happens.
Sure enough, the two eventually stumbled into the weird cavern that Striker called his home, making sure to keep quiet as they leapt behind the nearest boulder. Breathing out groans of pain between whistling a casual tune, the cowboy in question was currently standing near the unrealistic statue of himself and cleaning up his burn wounds from when he tried (and failed) to kill Fizz.
âHey, you think you can do that introduction thing that Robo Fizz did? It might be fun.â Blitzø whispered to his friend, who, in response, nodded and took a deep but silent breath.
âHiya kids, it's me, the lovable Fizzarolli!â Fizz started, jumping up onto the boulder they were hiding behind and watching as his voice startled Striker a little.
âSay, would anyone here like to play a game with me?! It'll be so fun, I can guarantee it!â While the cowboy demon scowled and reached for his angelic gun, Blitzø shot a bullet of his own towards said gun, making it inaccessible as the two former clowns suddenly launched at him.
It took quite a hassle, but eventually they managed to pin Striker to the same part of the train tracks that Stolas had been restrained against a while ago. They then tied his arms down either side of his head with his own angelic rope, doing the same for his legs and tail. âYou two fuckass clowns ain't gettinâ away with this. I will get my vengeance, just you little fellas wait..â Striker sneered, allowing a brief dark chuckle to sleep through his teeth afterwards. To which Fizz and Blitzø both looked at each other with unbothered expressions.
Setting up his phone on a nearby rock, Fizz pressed the ârecordâ button and began speaking like the whole thing was a vlog.
âHey there, all you imps, sinners, overlords and deadly sins! Today, we have a very western guest with us. Say hi, Striker!â Fizz announced, moving out of the way so that the recording showed a clear view of the cowboy, bound helplessly to abandoned train tracks and frowning spitefully all the while.
âGo fuck yourself.â Was the only thing that Striker planned to say for most of this. Unfortunately, things never seem to go according to plan for him. âOnly off camera. Now let's get down to business, shall we?â Blitzø responded, smiling along with the other clown imp.
âYou're a selfish bitch that only cares about money. Understandable, however, fucking up my only ticket to the human world and then also trying to kill my friend, that's not as excusable. So, we're gonna return your âfavourâ by humiliating you and then blackmailing you with the recording of it. Sound good? Good!â
Before Striker had gotten a chance to respond, Fizz had started talking again, reverting back to his show voice for this next part.
âEarlier I asked if you wanna play a game. And now, we're gonna play whether you like it or not! The game is called...âDon't Laughâ~!â Upon saying the name of the game, Fizz lifted his robot arms up to shoulder height and bent his fingers into claws, wiggling them simultaneously to give a hint as to what was about to happen, with a shit-eating grin on his face the whole time.
The cowboy tensed, it was subtle but it was noticed, now slightly struggling against his binds as the reality of this âgameâ began to fully sink in. âOh you gotta be fuckinâ kiddinâ me..â Striker murmured, feeling a few butterflies swarm in his stomach, something that had rarely ever occurred before. He despised the way the sensation affected him, making his body twitch in anticipation whenever someone made even the smallest movement, making him feel vulnerable, making him feel weak.
âTch, and what kinda sick pleasure will it bring ya this time? Y'know, since everythinâ appears to be a sex thing with you two.â He remarked with a tiny smirk, clearly aiming to piss them off some more, despite his better judgment and the fact that it was just going to make everything worse for him.
Dammit, even those weird ass mini singing imps were here to watch.
His attention was yanked away, however, as Blitzø's hand then reached out towards him, and he tensed up once more, instinctively sucking his stomach in. But, the imp merely grabbed the cowboy's hat and placed it on his own head, earning a âseriously?â look from both of the other demons, and an extra eye roll from Striker, who was getting fed up with this. But then Fizz's voice sounded out again, still speaking as if the whole thing was a scripted performance. âLadies and gentlemen, boys and girls, it's time for the game to start! Alright cowboy, are you ready?!â
âListen, I donâ know what you jester twinks are planninâ to accomplish with this, but I can assure ya, you ainât gonâ pull a stunt like this again once I get my reve-HENGE!!â Striker's threat was abruptly cut off by the overwhelming sensation of a robotic hand squeezing his side experimentally, his voice raising up to a slightly embarrassing high pitched tone as this happened.
The cowboy attempted to recover by clearing his throat and forcing back the anticipatory nervous smile, refusing to let his captors feel like they were winning. Said captors, however, now adorned ear-splitting smirks that caused the butterflies in Striker's stomach to temporarily double, a few more harsh tugs being acted out on the angelic restraints. âI said âare you ready?â, not âbore us with monologueâ. But still, at least people on Sinstagram will enjoy the bickering. But seriously, don't laugh!â Fizz replied smugly, refocusing his attention on the imp's outfit.
There were a few scorch marks on his shirt that didn't burn through the fabric, so of course, Fizz decided to fuck around a bit and trace ever so gently over those marks, relishing in the way it made Striker flinch and gasp quietly. Yet, his resolve held true, the scowl on the cowboy's face didn't budge, but not did the angelic rope, unfortunately for him.
âAlright it's my turn, move over bitch!â Blitzø demanded, playfully shoving his friend out of the way and cracking his knuckles, before starting to spider his fingers along Striker's sides. This time, it resulted in a wobbly grin showing through for just over a millisecond, the ticklish sensation making Striker wriggle away from the pursuing hands with a bit of desperation.

Thoughts on latest HB ep "Ghostf**kers" (*now that I've regained a bit more energy post-Halloween weekend lol*):
So the newest ep of HB has came & went from what I've seen- aaaand naturally feels like the best time for me to finally ramble about it now that its settled in my brain some more .3. Thoughts (+Spoilers) below~ NOTE: Most of this -does- get a lil rant-y below sooo... read at your own risk lol .w.;;
First things out of the way to start things off on a good note, the Pros:
To start off with... FINALLY we got some Millie focus for a major episode plot (-or more specifically, focus that doesn't get revolved back to Moxxie somehow lol)đđđ. Even if Millie's spotlight here did have to be shared with Blitz for a good chunk of the ep, their friendship was actually genuinely sweet & compelling to watch (esp. their backstory & how Millie was allowed to stand up for herself, give him space, BUT also coming around to acknowledging the good in Blitz, when it all came down to itđĽşđ). Which ngl, after these previous episodes reigning down HARD on this dude... idk, just felt refreshingly wholesome to see for this series, yknow?đ
New villain Rolando was pretty cool, and surprisingly spooky to watch as the second-half went on oml- .o.;; While I'm still a teensy bit confused how his powers/demon lore work (at least to what we already know about Hell limitations crossing to the human world, ex. succubi & their crystals), his underwater monster vibe gave some fun visuals to watch up until the climax. I'm not 100% familiar with John Waters' works, but damnnn he should take up voice-acting more often ngl~ đ
FINALLY MAMA TILLA MAKES AN (on-screen) APPEARANCE đđHer whole vibe & Blitz's clear love and regret over what happened to her... hhhhh my whole heart ;n; đ
That pink client lady (Rita, I think her name is?) who assigned the hotel mission? I dig her vibe, its cute~ :3
I.M.P. feeling like a legitimate workplace family for once, with even Loona & Moxxie getting a nice lil moment towards the end?? More. Of this. Please. đđ
Even with the lil undertones of the Stol*itz drama from the past couple eps, I very much appreciate Blitz (+the show itself) acknowledging that what's been going is NOT a breakup ('cause... yknow, they never actually dated to begin with lolđ¤ˇââď¸). It may not 100% fix how messy that particular narrative's been handled as of late (which I'll get to in a sec-), but eh... its a start in the right direction, I guess? .3.
Enjoyed all the colorful flashback looks given, never would I have thought I needed mercenary!Millie with a fluffy ponytail til nowww hlkjlkđŠâ¤ď¸
Aaaand as for the not-so-good bits (imo), aka the Cons:
Pacing felt kiiiinda all-over-the-place, I'll admit; like one min we've got a whole intro & a half to deal with Blitz's whining fest (+some other pointless banter at the hotel)... then the next it feels like we're breezing past Rolando's whole presence as the "big bad" villain. Which... idk, I guess I shouldn't be too harsh on given the production drama behind-the-scenes (aka: the leaked content that had to be cut & redone awhile back)... buuuut yeah, its just one of those things you can't help but take notice of, critique-wise lol đ¤ˇââď¸
The humor wasn't... exactly at its strong point here, mainly just a lil overdone in the sex joke department imo though I guess thats kind of "par-for-the-course" in the Hellaverse series nowadays, so lol
Now, idk if this may be an unpopular opinion or not; but was I the only one who felt like Blitz's month-long mope fest over Stolas was rather... OOC, all things considered? .-. Like, okay its one thing for Blitz to still be (understandably) upset over how the last two eps went down (but being the "boss" he is, continues working anyway to keep I.M.P. afloat, like in the latest HB shorts)... but for Blitz of all people to just randomly use ALL his company's funds on useless junk, force his daughter Loona to stay up all night/not go home, drive Moxxie in a panic from all the budgeting issues this past month was just... wut- đ¤Śââď¸ ...Mind you, this is meant to be the SAME Blitz who not even a few episodes ago begged Stolas to not take away the Grimoire (aka the key to his + his employee's livelihood), clearly being willing to do anything to not lose all that he holds dear. You seriously expect me to believe he'd be the type to throw that all away (for a WHOLE month)... all to simply whine over some blue-blooded bird not noticing him? ...Yeaaaaah sorry, but I'm gonna have to call bs on that, chief- đ
Kiiiinda tying in the last point, but as much as I enjoyed the tense thills gained from the "Rolando enters Blitz' mind to make him see his own flaws/past mistakes" sequence... I do have a few issues with some of these other "flashbacks" added to the mix: 1) Loona's groin kick towards Blitz in "Seeing Stars" (*wasn't Blitz's fault since ALL he did was tell her to be nice to clients... and was right about to apologize to Loona just seconds before the kick đ*) 2) Blitz pushing Stolas' hand away in "Ozzies" (*which Blitz only did after Stolas hide his face/didn't defend Blitz during the song*) 3) Stolas' hurt expression at the end van scene of "Ozzie's" (*mind you, taking place while Blitz is rightfully standing up for himself/telling off Stolas for being a privileged creep all of S1*) 4) Stolas trying to present the Asmodean Crystal gift in "Full Moon" (*a whoooole mess in of itself I already covered prior-*) 5) Stolas angrily walking away from their pool fight + trash-talking Blitz in the "Motherf**kers" song + drunkenly dumping his problems on him + making out with a whole other dude in front of Blitz (*again, a huge mess I covered prior but TL;DR... most of that WASN'T fully-Blitz's fault in those instances??đ*)
Like... I dunno man, I don't mean to sound like I'm just ragging on Stolas per-episode as of late... but these last few points just keep giving me mixed signals than any genuine idea as to WHY Blitz even has these "feelings" growing for Stolas, atm?đ¤¨For any canon couple in fiction, I WANT to see reasons for why they work best together, what kind of interests/aspects they've got in-common, what special "spark" is there that helps them stand out above all the other dynamics in-canon... but from what I see so far on Blitz's end (& the narrative continuing to guilt on him being "the problem")... it honestly feels more like he's only now fallen for Stolas out of pity... not because of any genuine affection or attraction :/ Which... ngl, sounds like a really sad precedent to send for a main-endgame couple, regardless of series genre imo... đ¤ˇââď¸
-------
Soooo yeah, all that rant-y rambling aside... not a bad ep in the grand scheme of things! đđHere's hoping the last few remaining eps (+possible shorts) for S2 keeps up the good work! đ
#helluva boss#hellaverse#helluva boss opinions#helluva boss review#helluva boss spoilers#helluva boss critical#(*this ain't meant to be a full-on critical blog btw- but for this review in-partular... yeaah it may be best to just mark it as such lol*#(*I -did- still enjoy the ep nonetheless btw so don't be too mad pls TwT*)

Tags: bakugou x gn!reader, fluff, comfort, crying, swearing (as usual)
Been feeling a little inferior to those around me lately. It's something I'm sure we can all relate to, so I hope this brings comfort to those who feel like they're never good enough. Katsuki Bakugou is surprisingly good as a comfort character.
Today was just not your day. You've had these days. The ones when you would feel like you were about to cave inward. The days that you feel your strong front collapse because of the stress and pressure you exert on yourself.
Today isn't any different. Everyone in your class is constantly testing the limits, sky-rocketing past boundaries, while you...well, you...
You're just learning how to grow and improve. U.A. is a school where you need to aim for the top if you don't want to be left behind. Because of this, you feel like you're slipping further and further behind in class.
Momo is good at academics. Shoto is good at combat. Everyone is improving while you're trying so hard not to seem like a failure.
You're not bad, per se. But just seeing your classmates overcome their own boundaries and overtake you sow seeds of deep insecurity in your heart.
Today, was the day something finally snaps.
Bakugou comes over to help you study, armed with assessment books and dons thinned-rimmed glasses that make him look more intelligent and more mature. He still yells, mind you.
Every time you get a question wrong, he screams his head off while pointing out where you went wrong. He waits for you to solve the problem, and if you get it wrong again, the cycle continues. Rinse and repeat.
It got to the point when you were on the brink of tears, drawing a shaky breath as Bakugou eyeballed you write your equations with a quivering hand. You knew you'd asked for his help, even mentally fortressed yourself to focus on what you can do to improve, but...
"Dumbass, come on! This problem's fucking easy, an idiot like you can handle it!" Bakugou barks.
It's a final nudge over the delicately crafted wall that blocks out your emotions. A droplet of sorrow weasels its way past your defences, and your dam breaks.
Tears of helplessness flood your eyes as they splatter on your paper, your shaky hand pausing as you attempt to control these overwhelming feelings of inferiority gushing out.
Bakugou's still here, he can see everything, you scream at yourself...but your tears can't stop flowing. You just sit there, frozen, with tears streaming down your face and a trembling hand clutching your pencil so hard it could break.
Bakugou practically reels at the sight of you crying.
"I-I'm so sorry, Bakugou, I just," You sniffled, nose getting clogged up. "It's just...I-give me a minute," Grabbing a couple of tissues, you hastily blow your nose, trying to salvage the scrapes of dignity you have left.
"W-We can continue now, I just-" You try to clear your voice, or at least stable it to some degree. "That was just-"
"Fuck work, Y/n," He states bluntly, noticeably calling you by your first name. He tosses the book off your desk, slams his glasses on it and spins your chair to face him. "What, in the name of everloving hell is going on? Nah, don't shake that pretty little head of yours. Don't you lie to me," He snarls, words softening. "You're going through shit and you're clearly struggling, so What. Is. It."
A new round of tears hit your eyes as you choke back a sob. "I just-" Your voice is barely coherent now. Your watery eyes meet his, and it makes your breath hitch.
Bakugou's eyes were glowing with genuine care. Under those piercing, vermilion-red eyes, you can see his raw intentions laid bare.
He cares.
The words spill from your mouth as you babble, forcing yourself to admit the things you've wanted to hide, deny or avoid this entire term.
How you spent the entire lesson on Mathematics just barely grasping the teacher's words.
How hard you've been working.
How everything you do or try still makes it seem your improvement rate is put on the lowest setting of a slow-moving conveyor belt.
And Bakugou just...listens. He sits there patiently with an attentive gaze, each word you say making his eyes gaze softer and softer until it reeks of empathy for you.
He lets you explain how you feel, and doesn't say a word as you stuff your face with tissues and strewn them on the ground.
"You done?" He asks gruffly when you stop talking, making you nod your head vigorously at him. His eyes narrow on you, "Good,"
In a flash, he stands up and grabs you, pulling you into his embrace as he wraps his warm, comforting arms around you.
"Now listen here, Y/n," He says, voice hushed but holding conviction. "I'll say this once and I'll say it until it gets into that thick skull of yours. You have no right to work yourself down that hard. I don't care what words you're branding yourself as inside that blasted mind of yours, but you are not a failure."
He takes a deep breath and continues. "You are fucking incredible no matter how stupid you think you are, and you're already working even harder than most extras in our level. So can you please stop hurting my Y/n and realise how amazing you really are?"
Your breath catches.
My Y/n.
You must be going deaf or something. There's no way in a million years that he'd call you that.
"Bakugou-"
"Say it."
"I-I-" You bury your head into his shoulder, stumbling over the embarrassingly confident words he described you with. "I'm not a failure," Your voice wobbles. Bakugou raises an eyebrow. "And?"
"I'm fucking incredible." You say, heat rushing to your cheeks.
You both pull away as you wipe your tears away. Bakugou cracks a satisfied grin. "Good. Now screw this shit, we're getting a tub of ice cream in here. You need a goddamn break."
He doesn't fix your problems magically overnight. But that caramel ice cream is a sinful treat as Bakugou makes you take a nap right after the tub is finished.
It's the best sleep you've had in months.
--
When Kirishima hears about this the next day, he is adamently shocked that the both of you can so boldly claim that you're still "just friends".
Katsuki Bakugou is truly, a fucking idiot.

CW Weight loss and ED talk under the cut
So I have hit a brick wall with my medical care and they're refusing to continue with investigations into my numbness in my hands and feet and lightning headaches/hearing my heartbeat in my ear/passing out when lifting above my head until I lose weight.
They've referred me out to "lifestyle" and I have had my first chat (which went surprisingly well, they listened to how I eat and didn't immediately call me a liar like other people have) and then been referred onto a third party management system that's obviously a cash grab and like.
What annoys me about all this is there is no consideration of my history with anorexia and bulimia at all. I KNOW what I have to do to lose weight - I'm not one of those people for whom small changes make big differences, I need to bulk eat vegetables, eat 3 small meals and 3 small snacks for consistent energy release, and monitor everything I eat, but this puts me at huge risk of falling into compulsive behaviours around calorie counting and limiting.
I put a decade of work into being able to accept my body post-disability, and adjust how I move and exercise. But now I've become more disabled, I can't safely lift weights, so the only option is this heavily limited way of eating.
I don't drink alcohol, I don't eat ready meals, I cook from scratch and eat vegetarian 3/7 days. I DO like to go out to eat as it's my only social activity, I do get takeout every couple of weeks, I do find I get incredibly tired because I have fatigue issues and I drink too much caffeine and know my portions are too big. Because I'm HUNGRY. I'm craving protein all the time because I'm pushing my body all the time!
I KNOW how to fix this. But I also know I will lose the last remaining pleasures in my life because contrary to their beliefs, it doesn't decrease my pain levels or improve my energy levels. Exercise still hurts and leaves me fatigued, and the more I do, the more I end up in bed.
So I'm doing it. I'm anxious as hell because I know this pattern. It's exciting at first because I love the patters of it, and then it becomes all I think about, and then it stops being fun. But I'm learning more and more that everybody, EVERYBODY, cares more about you being thin than being okay.

*peeks around the corner and slides you a mug of coffee and a plate of croissants*
Oh Laammppp...Bea and/or Quincy vs the Imps. Thoughts?
đ
Owoughh coffee, thanks~<3
With the imps, Bea treats them similar to, say, a barn cat.
She puts food out for them if she knows some of them are outside, and every so often she wrestles one or two to get some flea and tick medication on them, because there's parts of the grounds where the lawn is deliberately left uncut/undisturbed (for a variety of reasons), and they keep coming to her covered in bugs.
She also takes seeds/burrs off of their fur if they have it, and occasionally she'll let Mountain's imp hang around inside of the cabin if it's particularly nasty out, but the thing is basically the size of a horse, so she usually just sticks it in the woodshed.
She doesn't really view them as creatures with the capacity to develop a human level of intellect, and to be fair most of them never do, but she's always a bit confused when one of the imps demonstrates the ability to do/learn complex tasks, or speak, though she knows most imps are able to perform mimicry, like corvids.
She just thinks they're just clever little animals, and doesn't dwell on the fact that they could turn into something nearly human if they wanted to.
As for Quincy, he, surprisingly, doesn't encounter imps all that often; They're actually banned from the library, because they tend to climb on the shelves and knock over the books/disturb the siblings when they're trying to study.
He has met one or two, but his experience with them is very limited, and the majority of his knowledge about them stems from his interactions with Dewdles, Dew's pet, and because of how he is, Quincy just assumes most imps are like... cats or small dogs.
Dewdles is a pretty strong example of an imp that will likely never develop into anything else, as he is quite happy being carried around and treated like a pet.
What really confuses Quincy, though, is Aeon and Aurora, because those two started as imps that the ghouls summoned, and then became, well, Aeon and Aurora.
He's not quite sure how the whole evolutionary line of ghouls and imps and all of that works, and to be honest he isn't sure he wants to know.
Quincy has met kits before and made the mistake of treating them like an imp, and that really confused the hell out of him, because why do they look the same if they're not the same creature??
The answer is camouflage.
Kits are often left in imp dens because the imps will protect them like their own, and the whole safety in numbers thing is important in the pit.
However, most surface dwelling ghouls don't practice this anymore, since there's more available resources to keep their kits safe, and, really, the baby buggy should have been a strong indicator that it was a kit, and not an imp.
...Although, truthfully, it can be very hard to tell when Dew carries Dewdles around like this sometimes:
He's learning though.
Among ghouls, Bea's relationship with the imps/caretaking habits towards them is more in line with how they treat them in the pit, and the imps and Bea seem to have an understanding of one another.

Funky hcs, cybertronians purring when content or happy, or making small chirps to eachother when too lazy to use words (cliffjumper would do this)
Smoll sparkling instinctually climb on their parents backs like possums do, so imagine starscream with the jettwins clenched on his back sleeping while he's working.
Dreadwing easily get flustered if someone flirts with him.
Starscream thinks dreadwing is attractive, but would never say it even if you torture him lol
Prime finial move like cat ears
Soundwave probably has stray cats in his quarters
When it becomes too cold, cybertronians curl around eachother for warmth.
Sparklings have 4 stages in early years before becoming a youngling, bean, too smoll to move, only chirp and sleep and eat, waddly stage, they're still pudgy but they're grown a bit, their optics open and they waddle to get to places, serval kitten, lanky limbs and unproportioned body structure, zoomes everywhere, uncoordinated as all hell, loud, and finally semi youngling, or a nibbling, where they start to walk on two legs intsead of four limbs, this is the stage were they become more talkative and have longer conversations.
Well since this isn't super specific, here are some additional headcanons of mine to go with this.
In relation to sparklings:
Newforged sparklings are practically animals. The youngest can hardly move most times, but frag it all when they really put their spark to it they can be terrifying and bolt on all fours.
Sparklings, when without a caretaker, travel in small packs. The youngest will magnetize themselves to the oldest and they roam wild until they develop higher processing abilities or are adopted.
Newforged sparklings have denta sharp enough to rival a scraplet and can and will bite when approached.
Sparklings have a natural desire to seek out civilization through special code and find said civilization via a special set of sensors that allow them to detect spark signature density.
They lose these sensors as they age, often signifying the activation their higher cognitive functions. However if left stranded once these sensors are lost, the sparkling in question will turn out to be more wild in response to lack of exposure to other mecha.
Sparklings have zero preferences when it comes to fuel and will devour anything with even a hint of energon in it. This includes but is not limited to dirt, bugs, small-mechanimals, any energon powered tools, and even energon crystals five times their size.
Sparklings can unhinge their jaws slightly to devour larger energon portions. This can lead them to get things stuck halfway down their intake after a failed attempt to eat it.
Sparklings choose their own caretakers when left to their own devices. These chosen caretakers often end up doing better in raising their charges than those not selected personally, but this is not always the case.
It is incredibly rare for two sparklings to choose the same caretaker and get along because most refuse to tolerate a sibling who is in their minds, competition for scarce resources.
Sparklings are slow to bond to their caretaker but surprisingly possessive even before a bond is established.
Sparklings are known to fight over potential caretakers when there are not enough or two or more take an interest in the same one.
Once bonded to their caretaker, sparklings will make their claim clear to any others they see, often hissing, chirping, or otherwise making a racket to prove that the mech they chose is theirs.
Grounder sparklings will magnetize themselves to their caretaker's back so they can still see what is going on, fliers will hang off the shoulder, minicons prefer hiding in their caretaker when possible, and triplechangers/beastformers are more fond of hanging onto an arm or leg.
Sparklings shed armor as they grow and develop new plating as they age. They start off fairly smooth and round but gain more sharp edges and defining features with time. Wings and other such kibble grow in right before younglinghood.
In relation to Cybertronian Habits:
Cybertronians are not a very touchy race. They do not physically touch one another often because they have EM fields to make up for body language.
Touching is considered a very intimate thing when not in a professional setting. It is only done between those who trust one another or are familiar enough to be somewhat at ease.
Shoulder touches and small lingering interactions of similar variety are common among co-workers and friends.
Clasping arms or being particularly close is something found only among close friends, Amica bonded, or political allies.
Full blown hugs are something meant for family and family alone. It is a rare gift.
Touching helms is considered the highest form of intimacy and is reserved solely for Conjunx Endura or caretaker's and their sparklings. There are rare cases where it is seen between abused mecha bound together by trauma, but beyond that it is a sacred thing.
Caste, or rank determines how much a mech is allowed to express themselves.
Low caste mecha are expected to keep their helms low and be quiet, but are otherwise not forbidden from being more touchy and interactive.
Middle caste mecha are required to be chaste in all sorts of interaction. Their EM fields must be held close and their outward expression must be carefully controlled. Intimacy of any kind in public is frowned upon.
High caste mecha, depending on function are either required to show nothing or allows to express themselves however they see fit.
This bleeds into behavior in both Autobots and Decpeticons due to how deeply these stigmas were rooted.
When startled Cybertronians flare their plating to look bigger.
Most Cybertronians have built in tracking systems and will automatically track small lights like laser pointers when unfocused. This behavior has been largely trained out of the bots involved in the war, but it can still be seen when the bots are tired.
Even Optimus Prime can end up whipping around to track a small light when exhausted before he refocuses.
Cybertronians naturally do not speak but rather sing to communicate. Spoken language was introduced by the Quintessons but has since only been used in formal situations to show attention and understanding.
Cybertronians don't really get cold. Their sparks keep their internals somewhat warm, but when they do end up reaching an environment so cold it can reach their cores, they group together and connect via special cables to share heat.
When too hot, Cybertronians can shed their outer layers of armor. More often than not they simply flare their plating and work their fans to cool down since it can take weeks if not months for shed plating to regro.
It is also healthy and normal for a Cybertronian to shed their plating after a few centuries of wear and tear so that fresh plating may grow in its place.
Shed plating is often eaten by the Cybertronian who lost it as a way to conserve resources.
There are even special recipes designed to make eating shed plating more palatable.
Cybertronians all have mandibles in their intakes which they use to process energon. They can extend their mandibles and the tubing attached to it if required, but it is uncomfortable for those no longer sparklings.
Mecha left alone in groups will form clans on instinct. The biggest among them automatically ends up activating more protective codes while the smaller become more sensitive to changes in the area.
After the Quintessons invasion, all Cybertronians forged from the Well are coded with an instinctual hatred toward the invaders and are all modeled to be best able to resist the invaders should they come again.
Random tidbits:
Optimus had sensory panels when he was still wild, ones that flared out from the sides of his helm much like insect antennae. They were far more sensitive then and have since been armored and largely hidden. He still brings them out on occasion though just so that he doesn't forget how to use them.
Arcee originally had a bright pink and white paintjob. She only changed it after the war began to inspire fear in her foes. She actually misses her old paint dearly but it too involved in her persona to drop it now.
Being from the early ages of Cybertron's history, Ratchet has a few modifications that no modern mecha possess. One such mod is his innate ability to operate with less energon. His frame was designed to retain energon and use it more efficiently, therefore making it less common for him to fuel as often as the others.
Bulkhead actually wanted to be an architect before the war but was denied entry into school because of his frame type and instead joined the wreckers after being rejected. In his free time he still comes up with building plans sometimes.
Bumblebee was known to have one of the most beautiful voices among Autobot troops before he was made mute. He could reach pitches that no others could and was even able to perform feats of song known to only be possible to those with mods or highly sensitive vocalizers. Losing his voice didn't hurt most because he couldn't speak, no, it hurt more because he could no longer sing.
Ultra Magnus received a frame upgrade sometime in his past that was highly experimental at the time. It made him larger, sturdier, and overall a force to be reckoned with. However he gets pains and phantom aches where old kibble used to be due to the relative newness of his mods at the time.
Wheeljack almost invented space bridges by accident before they were conceived by council scientists. He was trying to make a bomb that would tap into the void to create a mini black hole and instead made a small portal. He brushed it off as failed experiment at the time and didn't learn till long after that he had concocted space bridges before they were even a thing and didn't even know it.
Megatron has not shed his plating in over two millennia and continues to refuse to do so for various reasons he will not state despite the fact that his armor is old and getting rather frail at the base. He works around this by strengthening his armor with special salves and injections so that he need not shed it.
Starscream once had a far more appealing frame that he ended up getting changed during the war after receiving an injury that nearly shredded his entire outer armor. He never had much of an opportunity to change it back to how it was after that, but he does dearly miss his previous appearance even if he never says so.
Soundwave was once a very bulky mech and only slimmed down after he left the senate to try and emulate spark eaters in a rather quiet act of defiance toward his previous companions. He much prefers being seen as similar to the monsters of old instead of as an intimidating but ultimately fallible mech.
Shockwave sometimes has moments where the shadow play wears off long enough for his previous personality to make an appearance. It is very rare, but when it happens he is often kept locked away so he can't go running to Optimus who was once a friend back when he was Orion Pax.
Knockout used to be a flight frame and only lost his wings due to an accident. He pioneered the way to changing his alt-mode to fit in, but he still misses the skies and sometimes likes to stand on tall structures to feel the wind. He even likes to skydive if he is sure there is a landing place for him or some sort of security to keep him from falling to his death.
Breakdown actually once wished to work in sparkling care but was denied because of his alt-mode and frame type. The skills he picked up and the knowledge of sparklings he accumulated has largely found use with the Vehicons due to their relative youth. He tends to baby the Vehicons when he can and they appreciate it.
Dreadwing once had a duel to the death with a noble back when he was very young. He won, but got a nasty scar across his chassis in the process, one that never fully recovered and has since been covered. Skyquake got an engraving in the same place to match the scar so Dreadwing didn't feel so alone.
Arachnid almost joined Sentinel's science division as a researcher and only left at the last moment because of the threat of being shadow played.
The Vehicons play dead when it battle against Optimus. They have long learned that if they stay down after being hit Optimus won't kill them and they won't be punished since they were "hurt".
