oneshot under the cut :: not proofread

Remus Lupin was interesting.

He was not like his other friends; he was quiet, more reserved than them. The Marauders were the heartthrobs of Hogwarts, and Remus Lupin had his own group of “fans” that found his certain allure appealing.

You hated him.

The times when you would had the unfortunate requirement to talk to him, he was infuriating. He would send that damned smirk of his your way even when you were obviously about to blow a fuse. He would use those annoyingly smooth pickup lines on you when you were literally insulting him. He compliments you and uses pet names on you that makes other people do a double take on you from how he treated you like you two were dating.

He may have been the quieter one among his friends (besides Peter of course), but he could act as embarrassingly as Potter and Black do.

You were going to kill him someday. If he doesn’t kill you first with his smooth words and soft gaze.

As much as you hate him, your body betrays you. All the time.

Your cheeks flush when he compliments you. Your knees go weak when he calls you dove. Your brain lags when he uses one of his pickup lines that you never seem to predict.

The reactions were out of your control. I mean, if anyone else treated you the way Lupin treated you, you’d probably act the same.

Right?

Wrong, because you hate everyone besides your friends in Slytherin, no matter how kind they act towards you. Lupin just happened to take a page out of your house’s mascot and slither through your walls to become an exception.

Wrong, because you never would have punched someone purely out of instinct after a particularly horrible insult.

You were disappointed in yourself. You were doing well in restraining your anger during the past few years in Hogwarts, so why did you have to snap now out of all times?

No matter how annoyed you were at yourself, it couldn’t overpower the satisfaction you got from finally shutting Avery up.

So, how did it happen?

Let’s rewind.

—————

You were taking a stroll in the grass with Barty, who was always willing to accompany you on your spontaneous walks. The two of you were just talking about people you particularly hated in Hogwarts until you came across the two that placed particularly high on both your lists: Avery and Snape.

Being in the same house as the two vermin didn’t make you or Barty dislike them any less, especially you. You were one of the precious few halfbloods in Slytherin, and they never failed to insult you about it.

You didn’t care about blood statuses, though. But that didn’t matter do them.

They targeted you constantly, picking on you, tripping you in the hallway, spilling drinks on your back, and other petty things.

You always bit back with your words. You knew that if you tried to deal with it physically, you might be expelled from the school for violence.

Thank goodness Pandora, Barty, and Regulus ere always there to restrain you. Especially Barty. He was your closest friend, and although he wanted to beat them up himself, he didn’t want you getting in trouble.

Today seemed to be an exception.

“Oh, speaking of,” you cut Barty off, your gaze souring as you caught sight of the two you were just ranting about.

Barty followed your gaze, his lip curling in disgust. They were crowded over someone, but the tree beside them obscured your view of the victim. They seemed to be enjoying themselves, laughing wickedly and pushing the person.

“Are we going?” Barty knew you well. He knew you were going to do something about it. He just hoped that you were going to use your words instead of your fists, because he hasn't finished his strategy on how to hide bodies in school just yet.

“Unfortunately,” you sighed, picking up your pace, Barty a few feet behind you to give you space. You may hate everyone in school, but not enough to leave them in the clutches of people like Snape and Avery.

“What kind of fucked up entertainment did you two idiots decide to do today?” You called, making the two turn your way.

“Ah, just the person we were talking about,” Avery sneered. “What do you want now? You here to check up on your boyfriend?”

You furrowed your brows in confusion. You stepped to the side a little and groaned internally when you saw who Snape and Avery’s target was today: Remus Lupin.

His face was contorted in anger, his clenched fists peeking out from his slightly oversized sweater. Whatever Snape and Avery were teasing him about must have really struck a nerve in him.

“Leave them out of this,” he warned.

“What’re you going to do about it, huh?” Snape taunted him, approaching you. “C’mon loverboy. Not so strong now that your bodyguards aren’t here, ain’t that right?”

“Why don’t you boys take a break from being dickheads, yeah?” You said, testing out the chance of a diplomatic ending. “Go find some other place to dump your bullshit on, preferably the greenhouses. They could use the fertilizer.”

Avery made a beeline towards you, partially shoving Snape out of his way to grab your collar and pull you toward him. He was practically steaming.

Diplomacy was out the window, I suppose.

Barty a step towards you, as did Remus, but Snape stopped the lanky boy and you put your hand up to make Barty pause. You could handle yourself.

“You wanna say that again, bitch?” Avery seethed.

You had to restrain yourself from puking in his face after you felt drops of his saliva hit your cheeks, but you stood your ground. “I said you’re full of shit. Did some of it get in your ears or something?”

Avery looked like he wanted to hit you, but instead he leaned in your ear. You cringed at the lack of distance, but it quickly morphed into something else as he whispered, “You wouldn’t be barking as much if you let your ugly ass boytoy do the talking for you. He’s the one better with words, eh? Bet he uses them so you would want to fuck him. Tell me, is his dick as deformed as his face is?”

Avery never got his response as you reeled your fist back and let it fly, making direct contact with his nose with a satisfying crack.

—————

“I don’t believe it,” Madame Pomfrey tsked in disappointment, dabbing a paste on the bruise around your eye. You had to suppress a wince, since the rest of your body was too sore. “You should know better than to start a brawl in the courtyard.”

“They had it coming,” you muttered, making the nurse dab with a little more force than necessary. “Ouch.”

"You could have sustained worse injuries than this, stupid child!" She scolded, like a mother reprimanding a disobedient child. And like a disappointed child, you stayed silent and hung your head in slight guilt.

Only slight guilt because you still firmly believed that the two idiots had it coming to them.

You heard a moan of pain, and you could have sworn that you saw Madame Pomfrey roll her eyes. "You don't have that much severe injuries, so I'll check up on you in a while after I treat Mr. Snape and Mr. Avery."

You nodded. Before leaving, the nurse turned to Remus Lupin, who was icing a bruise on his cheek on the cot beside yours. "Watch over them, and after a few minutes, apply ice to their bruises," she instructed, and the Gryffindor nodded.

"Treasure, how're you doing?" Barty called from his cot across from you. He had sprained his ankle from kicking Snape hard in the nuts, and although he winced in pain occasionally when he moved, his grin told you that he didn't regret what he did.

"I'm okay B," you replied, grimacing slightly as one of the pulled muscles on your back acted up.

Remus noticed your flinch, and approached you worriedly. He was better off than you and Barty, the bruise on his face the only thing that he obtained from the fight. "Are you sure?" He asked, concerned. You didn't like how soft his eyes were as he gazed at you, or how your chest squeezed slightly at his worry.

"I'm fine, Lupin," you quipped, although your voice lacked its usual venom.

Remus hummed, unconvinced. He turned to the bedside and grabbed the ice that Madame Pomfrey left for you and held it out for you to grab.

You scoffed. "I said I'm fine. No need to baby me."

Remus rolled his eyes slightly. "And I don't believe you. Besides, the nurse said to ice your bruise after a few minutes. A few minutes has already passed, and frankly, she can do more damage to me than you can in this state."

You grumbled, turning your head. Your pride made you stubborn, as it did to many, but thank goodness Remus Lupin has had training in dealing with prideful companions.

He closed in on you, holding your face by the chin and tilting it towards him. You tried to fight back, but his grip was firm, so you simply sighed and resigned your fate. You could only hope that the observant boy didn't notice the warmth on your cheeks.

He gently placed the ice on your eye.

"Sorry," He murmured when you hissed at the sudden cold.

You purposefully averted your gaze from him, eyes fixated on the wheels of another cot.

That didn't stop you from spotting Remus's fixated stare on you from your periphery.

"Stop looking at me like that, Lupin," You spat, still refusing to make direct eye contact with him. "What do you want?"

"Why did you punch Avery?" He asked, finally making your eyes snap up to him. "He said something that provoked you. What did he say?"

You scoffed. "The usual bullshit that comes out of his mouth."

"I heard that."

"Fuck off," you called to the curtained cot where Avery currently resided. Madame Pomfrey hushed you disapprovingly form behind the curtains.

"I don't think that's true," Remus said, eyes narrowed as he studied you like a problem he couldn't solve, an enigma he wanted to understand.

You looked at him in silence for a moment, before heaving a sigh and looking away again. "He insulted you," you mumbled, words faint and hard to decipher, but Remus got the general meaning.

Well, judging from his grin, he got the general meaning.

"What did you say?" He asked. You looked at him, offended. Remus Lupin was teasing you.

"Clean your ears next time, Lupin," you shot a glare at him, but it didn't have as much heat behind it as you would have wanted.

"Nope, don't try to escape from this," he chuckled, using his hand on your chin to make your visible eye make contact with his brown ones again. "What did you say, dove?"

You groaned. You absolutely loved hated the effect this boy had on you.

"He insulted you, Lupin," You snapped, cheeks blazing at this point. "Happy?"

Remus's playful expression melted into one of disbelief. "You punched him because... he insulted me?"

"Salazar, you really are deaf," you rolled your eyes. "That's what I said, isn't it?"

Remus seemed to still not be able to wrap his head around the idea. You, the person he's been pining over the past few months, defended him. And got hurt because of it.

"I'm sorry," he said, his voice sincere.

Your brows furrowed in confusion. "What are you apologizing for? I started that fight with my own free will, and they deserved every cut and bruise they received."

"Amen," Barty replied. He was obviously eavesdropping on your conversation, and you couldn't say that you were surprised.

"But still." His lips tilted downwards along with his gaze. Salazar give me strength, he's pouting. "You were dragged into it when they were picking on me. I could have —"

"Yes, there are many things that you could have done, but you can't reverse time to do them now, Lupin," You said severely. "I don't need you apologizing for things I don't regret doing."

Remus looked up at you hopefully. "You don't regret defending me?"

You blinked, realizing the implications your words gave off. You played it off with a huff. "Whatever."

"You didn't deny it," Remus teased, a small smile on his face. He still felt guilty that you were hurt because you were defending him, but you didn't regret it. That had to count for something.

"Whatever, Lupin."

"Call me Remus."

"No."

"Please."

"Absolutely not."

"Dove?"

"... Fine, Remus."

"Heh, I knew you liked me."

"What — I never said I did!"

"But you never said you didn't."

"I —"

A retching noise was heard. "Ugh, your lovey-doveyness is making me sick."

"Shut up, Barty!"

Maybe teen reader! Who can get quite violent? Obviously not with just anyone, like if someone tries to fight them, or harasses someone they care about. They don’t just hit them, like full on beat them. (Inspired by the mc by Villian classroom)

I would imagine It’s kinda hard for the ror fam, especially the gods to say anything because they’re way worse compared to reader when it comes to violence

-Being a teenager was rough; dealing with a teenager was rough; but dealing with and being a teenager who was hands on sight with others… yeah that was a whole new can of beans.

-It’s a good thing your family was full of powerful warriors- they could handle you, and it was a good thing, as they would spar with you and let you burn off steam and anger.

-You weren’t necessarily violent with your family, as they respected you, and with their respect, you gave it to them in return, and you had no reason to get violent, except when Loki ate your ice cream you had been saving as your reward for making it through a rough test you had been preparing for.

-At school it was a different scenario, you were constantly getting into fights, dealing with bullies who picked on those who were different, or smaller or weaker than they were- that’s someone you couldn’t stand- seeing people picking on others.

-You didn’t get into trouble often, as the victims would stick up for you, telling teachers how you had protected them from the bullies.

-You sent several to the hospital, but with non-serious injuries, bloody noses and bruises mostly- your aim wasn’t to hurt and maim- your goal was to make them stop.

-A few did stop, becoming scared of you, not wanting to get hurt again, which made them realize what they had been doing to others, and they came to your side of things, as you didn’t fight unless it was to protect one of your friends or someone who couldn’t protect themselves.

-So, today’s phone call was a little surprising when your family was asked to come to school.

-When Leonidas, Adam, Odin, and Brunnhilde arrived, they were surprised to see you sitting by the office, your knuckles were wrapped and you had a bandage on your forehead, like you had been busted open.

-Leonidas ruffled your hair lightly as the principal came out, seeing them arrive and brought them into a meeting room, where nine other students were, all of them looking like they had gotten their asses kicked.

-Their parents were there as well, demanding you be arrested and complaining to your family how violent you were, but there were other students with their parents who were quick to defend you, “Y/N saved us!”

-The principal stuck his pinkies in his mouth, whistling loudly to get everyone quieted down and all attention went to him.

-He pulled out a projector and showed the security footage- the students who got their asses kicked approached the three students who were in the chess club and immediately started attacking them, and from what was gathered, it was because they refused to do their homework for them, which quickly got the parents of the bullies looking furious at their kids.

-Then here you came from down another hall and ran straight into the fray and took them all on, nine on one- punching them to get them to stay down and you headbutted two of them, which explained why your head had been busted open.

-All the parents were in awe, shocked that you handled business by yourself, protecting the three chess club members as the school security arrived as you finished, punching out the last bully.

-Leonidas grinned slightly, holding an unlit cigar in his lips, looking at the parents of the bullies who were all looking rather meek now, seeing the truth that they had the bullies for children while your family had a hero.

-The principal sighed softly, rubbing his eyes, “You three may leave with your families, and you can leave as well Y/N.” once outside, you were caught in a hug by the three students, “Thank you Y/N!” you looked a little embarrassed, but Odin could see that you looked happy.

-The bullies got suspended, something their parents weren’t happy about, especially since they found out their kids were bullies. A few of them had been impressed to see how easily you kicked their asses, while a few were terrified of ever trying to bully again, not wanting to get headbutted again.

-You enjoyed your ice cream Brunnhilde treated you to on the way home, your reward for doing what was right.

Airheaded S/O Headcannons #5 Kakashi (Naruto)

He had known about you since he was a child.

And at that time he absolutely hated you

How could someone so careless and utterly dimwitted be a shinobi?

You were constantly fumbling missions

You were never on time (actually getting lost on the way there)

And you could never take hints

It was a miracle you never died.

But as he grew older and everything with the 3rd Shinobi War, he sort of forgot about you.

He wouldn't run into you again until after he started teaching Team 7.

Naruto had pointed out a new squad's unusual training methods.

"Look at those weirdos! They're balancing an egg on their finger! And I thought you were weird Kakashi-Sensei. Ha! Their teacher must be insane!"

The boy wasn't wrong, it was odd, but that's more of a thought he should've kept to himself.

Especially since the squad heard him

One of them lost focus and dropped their egg.

The other gave up in favor of chewing Naruto out.

And the last kept their cool.

It was complete chaos.

"How dare you insult our sensei! I'll have you know they're one of the strongest Shinobi the Leaf has!"

"Yeah right! If they're so great why haven't I heard of them!?!"

"I haven't even told you their name yet you loudmouth!"

Kakashi was about the intervene, (trying not to cause a bigger scene) when the boy arguing with Naruto was hoisted up by a familiar figure.

"Ryuuuu~You know better than to pick a fight."

The boy lost all the fight in him and hung his head in shame.

"I know, but he was disrespecting your training."

And then Kakashi saw you in full.

That dimwitted kid he assumed would become nothing, was right in front of him.

You'd become a teacher and a Jonin.

And you still had that overly dopey look.

"Then you'll just have to prove him wrong, won't you?"

And it seems you actually matured.

He decided now would be the best time to re-indroduce himself.

He was curious to know just how the hell you got where you were.

"Y/n, long time no see."

And you gave him the blankest stare he's ever received in his life.

He felt a little self-conscious then because what if you had held a grudge for the way he treated you as a kid.

"I'm sorry??? Who are you???"

You didn't remember him??????

"Kakashi. We were acquaintances when we were kids. You were in Gai's squad right?"

Usually when people heard his name, it was immediate recognition.

But you continued to give him a blank stare for another two minutes before the dots finally connected.

"Oh...Ohhhhhh!"

Thanks goodness

"You're Gai's rival! The one he could never beat! How cool I get to meet you in the flesh!"

Kakashi was distraught because not only did you not remember him, but you only recalled him from Gai's stories.

But maybe it was a good thing you didn't remember him.

He could start fresh

And it would be nice to have someone to talk to that didn't constantly challenge him.

So he keeps finding ways to bump into you, just to take a peak inside that mind of yours

Realizes that no, you haven't outgrown your stupidity.

And it's not an act like his carefree facade

You still trip over nothing

You still have trouble deciphering secret documents

And you still can't find your way to meeting areas.

But unlike Kakashi's 'An old lady needed help' excuse, you just right out and say you got lost

And it catches him off guard everytime.

Your students adore you and after teaming up with your squad, he understands why

Whenever Naruto and Sasuke fight, he let's them sort it out themselves.

When your students fight, you make them perform such an outrageous act, that they forget what they're arguing about.

Instead of trying to one up each other over the smallest of mistakes, they actually work together because 'the faster we finish the mission, the more time we'll have to pick out a place to celebrate.'

But the one thing he still doesn't understand is how you became a Jonin.

Sure you were a great teacher, but you were still incredibly careless.

And then he finally sees your monster strength after the two of you had been ambushed on mission.

He didn't even have time to awaken his sharingan before you launched into action

There was no special jutusu's, no chakra based attacks, and no Kekkei genkai.

Just you downing enemy after enemy with Taijutsu

And he was so surprised, because you, the knuckle head idiot who even Obito could outsmart, had defeated about 30 Shinobi in less than 5 minutes

He understands clearly now how you got as far as you did

And it makes him feel a little guilty inside for the way he judged you

He seeks you out more frequently from then on, wanting to see what else you've been holding back.

But then he starts to notice the little things about you

Like how your socks are always mismatching

How when you can't read an important document, you have a student of yours read it out for you. (Those are secret for a reason dummy)

Or how whenever you see him, your eyes seem to light up a little more.

And goddamnit he's got a crush

He won't tell you for a long time

But there will be hints

He'll hold your hand in crowds because he's worried you'll wander off and get swept away

He'll request more missions with you even if it's a one man job

He'll take off his mask around you, knowing you won't make a big deal.

He'll be even later to meeting spots because he knows you got lost on the way and he wants to be the one to lead you there.

He doesn't tell you about his feelings for the longest time because he doesn't think he could take it if something happened to you.

If he let you into his life just to be taken away like everyone else.

But time and time again you prove your strength to him

And little by little his walls break down.

He's a sucker for romance as proven by his taste in books (not the Icha Icha novels 😭😭😭) so he'll try to confess using the traditional methods.

(we've got another one fellas)

Dinner dates, bringing you flowers, trying to woo you with his strength

But you never get the idea.

Not until he's ranting to Gai, the only other person closest to you, about his failures. Because at this point, he would take any help given.

He was already straining himself by being this forward, not used to being forced to confront his emotions.

"I just don't know what it's gonna take for Y/n to understand I like them."

And Gai sees you peaking over Kakashi's shoulder, with the other male not noticing you. And he gets a brilliant idea

"You like them?"

"You know what I mean."

"I don't believe I do rival. To understand one's own emotions, they must verbalize it to the world."

The copy ninja had never been so flustered.

Verbalize his feelings?

Not a chance

It was just too embarrassing.

But Gai's plan wasn't for Kakashi to take the bait. It was for you. And take the bait you did.

"I love you!" So proud and happy and everything pure.

And Kakashi jumped because he was completely unprepared for it.

He turns to face you red in the face, while you're beaming up at him.

No embarrassment.

No regret

Just you with nothing going on up top

Head empty

And he's so smitten he pulls you into a hug.

Not a kiss, his heart's not strong enough for that yet. It's something he'll need to build up on.

He's a total dork when it comes to romance so all his nicknames for you are the lovey-dovey ones

Calls you love, honey, sweetheart, baby, dear, darling

He introduces you to his ninken and they straight up prefer you over him. You always bring over treats for them and have the energy to play with them.

Kakashi doesn't get jealous, but he gets very insecure

When other women or men flirt with you, you don't realize it. But Kakashi does and he thinks you might prefer the advances of the other party more than him.

But then you're always walking away from the other person because you saw him start to sulk.

You find him and squish his cheeks going-

"Why are you sad. C'mon and smile for me my pretty boy."

And he's so 😍😍😍 because you called him pretty.

And then he's blushing real hard because you also called him yours.

It always gets him to forget about the other person and cement the idea that you chose him

He's also fiercely protective of you.

Yes you're strong and can handle yourself, but there's always a possibility you could be killed.

And that's enough of a reason for him to never let you take on a mission by yourself

If the wrong person were to use your stupidity to their advantage.......

You're never allowed to fight by yourself

Please don't go without supervision

He doesn't want to lose you 🥺🥺🥺

MASTERLIST

[bibururokku]

I don’t think people realize just how many have failed Kaiser since he was a child... (long rant post incoming, UTC)

I'm pretty illiterate in JP, but I get the gist and understand when speaking, so after running his profile data from his Egoist Bible page to make sure it wasn't vague or outright mistranslated bc shit happens, what stood out to me was what he said about his best and worst school subjects.

得意科目>授業なんてまともに受けてねぇ Tokui kamoku > jugyō nante matomo ni ukete nē Best Subject: I didn't take any classes seriously.

苦手科>学校行ってねえから知らん Nigate-ka > gakkō ittenēkara shiran Worst Subject: I didn't go to school, so I don’t know.

While this is a Japanese manga and, therefore, not likely to be extremely realistic, if we take it from a realistic point of view, Kaiser's past becomes a lot more tragic.

School is mandatory, and homeschooling is not allowed. It is very illegal to not send your child to school in Germany, so parents can be fined a hefty amount for not sending kids to attend. Repeat offenders also run the risk of facing prison time, and the police actually do go out of their way to find children who don't attend, and given their living situation, I don't think Kaiser's father would've run that risk. Especially when he, despite being an absolute garbage of a father, very specifically told Kaiser not to steal from people to avoid getting involved with authorities and, y'know, getting in trouble, and the kicker is that a few panels in the manga support the idea of Kaiser going to school to avoid that.

You see his bag? It's a bit reminiscent of schulranzen, basically a school bag, for German students, which most have because of social peer pressure. It's basically the norm to have one, and as a seemingly old man with no other family, Kaiser’s father doesn't seem to have a need for one, so he probably got it for Michael secondhand from someone else because they're quite pricey so he could go to school and sorta blend in without raising any questions.

Seeing as Kaiser never once spoke to his father, I think Kaiser would've had to take support or remedial classes early on as a child, which would excuse him from the regular classes as any school would be concerned for his development and try to help him meet academic standards there. Things like speech therapy and such would provide the reason as to why Kaiser says he didn't take his classes seriously and didn't go to school. I mean, if you just took supplementary classes, instead of going to the usual classes with your peers, would you really say or consider that going to school, given social norms? Especially with Kaiser's pride? Probably not.

I think this also explains his decent height and the miracle that is the fact that he is still alive. Being from a single-parent household with poor living conditions, I'm pretty sure Kaiser would qualify for free school lunches, which explains where in the world he got the proper nutrition to physically grow as normally as he did. Not to mention, attending school would mean that, at the very least, his father wouldn’t be able to beat him extremely or to death without repercussion. I mean, how the hell is the guy going to explain that?

He can brush off a bit of abuse as Michael being a mischievous kid often getting into trouble or something, sure, but for the kid that's constantly black and blue, to not go to school and suddenly perish? Eyebrows are going to be raised, and people will start talking and asking questions. Not to mention, prisoners are not kind to those who've done shit to children, so I would imagine Kaiser's father trying to avoid it as much as possible.

That being said, I still have a bone to pick with the people who would theoretically be teaching Michael. I mean, he definitely had to be taught a bit because how the hell else would this kid be able to pick up and understand something as complex as psychology by reading and taking notes to study within the short period of time that was him being in prison and taking part in the Bastard München tryouts?

Seriously, the fact that he had an acquaintance who framed and named him as an accomplice for burglary means there are enough legal records of Kaiser’s existence for police to narrow things down enough to find him. Try searching Michael Kaiser without specifying Blue Lock. That is a fairly common name! This guy had to have gone to school.

Anyways, why the hell did they not report his dad?

Like, Kaiser, may have been a quiet child, sure, but he also shows signs of being very avoidant and is usually battered up, all of which are signs of abuse so what is the excuse here?

"Maybe they weren't taught to recognize these signs or scared to make a report!"

But even then, you have to ask how many people over the course of his life saw him like that and didn’t say a thing? How many people saw this battered child in the streets on his own without a guardian in sight and just turned a blind eye? I know kids can go off on their own because it's a relatively safe country, but hello????

He's probably out there for hours trying to avoid his father or because his dad is out gambling and is out somewhere inebriated anyway! Why not ask the kid who's always out on his own some questions?

There had to have been a person who noticed! Like the people at the sandwhich shop who were nice enough to give him the leftover bread crust to make rusk! Because surely someone there would've gained his trust by giving him those?

But nope!

You know who else failed him?

That's right! Every single person he's interacted with from PIFA and Bastard München!

Ray Dark appears to be extremely suspicious, but here's the thing about him picking Kaiser up. He basically made a gamble, and Kaiser did as well. I say this because he is specified to be a PIFA agent, so I'm assuming this also makes him Kaiser's sports agent. Kaiser took the gamble because he didn't want to rot away with the life he had. That's obvious. Mr. Dark? He made a gamble in choosing to represent some random kid that he heard took down seven police officers.

But the thing is, he's a PIFA agent. He can do that with multiple players. It's less of a gamble for him because even if Kaiser doesn't make it big, well, he can still look for other talents to represent while leeching off their paycheck as well.

Honestly, the only good thing Kaiser has in his shitty life is the fact that he was born in Germany and is German.

The country has several laws to protect children, so they have several individual rights, which makes it more difficult for him to be taken advantage of since the bureaucracy and courts will have his best interest in mind. Especially given his situation as an underaged teenager at the time. He gets a good amount of say, and the laws have his best interest in mind, so he's pretty well-protected and would be challenging to take advantage of, legally speaking. At 14, he has the legal right to veto important decisions regarding himself, and he started playing at 15, so Kaiser is very safe now that he's away from his father.

Yet, no one has bothered to teach him this in his four years at Bastard München.

I really have to question what the hell is going on inside the higher-ups' heads here because this guy got into a fight his first day, and not a single one considered getting him therapy? This kid was scouted out for them and definitely has a record they can pull up to see.

Not to mention, since he got into the team, they probably sent him to a sportschulen or sports school to help develop his talent. Hell, with the studying he was doing in there, it appears that the team has their own for their underaged members because they're a German team. Formal education is compulsory for children from 6 to 18.

Sorry, Kaiser, I don't buy your "I didn't go to school" BS; you just had a non-traditional type and style of education, goofy.

Seriously, what the hell are the adults around him doing? He's been playing for the team for 4 years and is still in survival mode! Just look at the way Noel Noa looks after him. There is no hope for this guy. Everyone around him has failed to help him meet his basic emotional and psychological needs! Even Ness, who I will give a small pass to because he is equally as messed up to a different degree, was of no help in that sense because he just affirmed Kaiser's bad traits!

He's also in the do-or-die hellscape of Blue Lock now, and he does not need to be there. What he needs is to be locked in with a therapist for his own sake because, I swear, this guy is going to self-destruct in a bad way one day if he doesn't.

We see him do that mildly here when he says he thought he got over his father, but this guy hasn't gotten over anything and only feels that way because of the front he's put up. It currently works because no one has gotten in his head and made him highly vulnerable. Which, in turn, just makes him susceptible to having the biggest breakdown ever.

At this point, I'm begging. Someone help him. Please. He's just been screwed over his entire life. Do something.

If you made it here to the end, congrats! You managed to see half of my thoughts. The other half will be in a separate post for Ness.

I was not kidding when I said the new Egoist Bible pages had me thinking and cooking something in my head.

If the Genshin Impact men went to Night Raven College

🌟 Twst x Genshin Impact Crossover Event 🌟

Ever wondered who from Genshin Impact would go to NRC? Here's a little list of who I think would attend NRC and what house + clubs they would be in. Scaramouche filled out his own form.

Lyney - 2nd Year, Heartsybul

Best Subject - Illusory Magic

Club - Film Studies Club

Dislikes - Being away from his siblings

Hobby - Aviculture

Talents - Card Tricks

Lyney is a popular second year in Heartsybul, lives in the Shaftlands with his mother and two siblings and he takes the magic mirror home every weekend to visit them. Might be as strong as Riddle but Lyney keeps his cards close to his chest. He gets along with everyone but has few close friends. Lyney loves to perform and is one of the few non-Pomefiore students to successfully audition for Film Studies Club. He's a great comedic actor but sometimes get the feedback from Vil that he's "hamming it up" too much. However, Lyney takes it all in stride after all he knows he's capable of being a great magician one day.

Heizou - 2nd Year, Scarabia

Best Subject - Magical Analysis

Club - Board Game Club

Dislikes - Doing homework on the weekends

Hobby - Word Puzzles

Talents - Martial Arts

One of the few people Jamil can tolerate. Witty smart and well liked. Heizou gives Azul a run for his money in board game club, so much so that sometimes Azul "forgets" to tell him that they changed the club room for the day, or lies and says club was "canceled." and Idia avoids him altogether if possible. He aspires to be a detective at a magical law enforcement agency. Heizou studies diligently but also makes a lot of time for leisure and trips to the city. He's also a little obsessed with his magicam, he tries hard to cultivate a cool, aloof persona online but it comes off as a bit of an edgelord.

Childe - 3rd Year, Savanaclaw

Best Subject - Combat Magic

Club - Spelldrive

Dislikes - People who run from a fight

Hobby - Ice Fishing

Talents - Cooking

From a small town on the northernmost coast of the Shaftlands. Got lost in the woods as a child and survived with a pack of wolves before he was found. Ajax is the first of his siblings to go to Night Raven College, his two older brothers went to Royal Sword Academy. Very driven and excels in magic courses however, he doesn't really prioritize other coursework. Constantly gets into trouble for starting fights on campus. He challenges Leona every semester for housewarden chair but hasn't come close to beating him. Ajax doesn't even want to be housewarden, he just wants to know he's strong enough to kick leona's ass. The enjoyment he gets out of fighting really is rather disturbing. One of the star players on the Spelldrive team, totally has what it takes to go pro.

Scaramouche - 2nd Year, Diasomnia

Best Subject - All Subjects

Club - Genius Society Club

Dislikes - Everyone

Hobby - Bullying

Talents - Everything

Prince of a distant land in the east. Worse mommy issues than Riddle. Kunikuzushi's a loner who performs flawlessly in all of his course work. He's also a brat who is often exceptionally cruel to his classmates, even for NRC's standards. He was really out of control first year but now he has mandated therapy and has since mellowed out. He's still not sold on this whole "friends" thing though. Started his own club called "the Genius Society" but claims that no one besides himself is smart enough to get in so club enrollment stays at one member. Kuni is going to inherit the throne of his home nation one day so he doesn't really worry about things like interships. Besides he doesn't have to try all that hard to do well.

Xiao - 2nd Year, Savanaclaw

Best Subject - Combat Magic

Club - Basketball

Dislikes - Noisy first years

Hobby - Fighting

Talents - Fighting

Starting guard on the basketball team. Aloof minds his own business mostly. His father is a famous lawyer and his mother passed away some time ago. His best friend boyfriend goes to RSA so he spends a lot of his free time away from campus but gets along well with Jamil and other chill students. However, Xiao never backs down from a fight and as a result Childe knows exactly who to go to when he wants a good bout. However Xiao releases a lot of his pent up energy through basketball, so he's just a touch more mellow.

~BONUS~

Alhaitham - Professor of Ancient Curses and Dead Languages | Diasomnia (Formerly)

Faculty advisor for Malleus' Gargoyle Studies Club. Alhaitham was housewarden for Diasomnia some years ago, but after getting his advanced degrees returned to teach in the Social Sciences and Linguistic Department. He was one of Trein's favorite students, and he was in the same year as Crewel. They get along ok, Alhaitham is a bit dry for Divus' tastes and in Alhaitham's opinion Crewel is a bit conceited. If a diligent and fair teacher, but direct and sometimes appears callous, like all Professors at NRC.

Baizhu - Professor of Pharmacology | Pomefiore (Formerly)

Agreed to sponsor Jade's Mountain Lover's Club as long as he could get a cut of the rare forage that grows on the mountains. Baizhu is an alumnus and current science department faculty member a few years older than Crewel and Alhaitham. Baizhu largely keeps to himself. He doesn't want other people meddling in his affairs and possible...necromantic practices. Don't ask him what the rare herbs are for.

Deku

As a kid he was so strong and brave. He was a leader for sure I guess that is why I followed him relentlessly. He constantly pushed me away, but all I wanted was to be just like him. Tonight he took me from the dorms; we walked in silence but I had a feeling of what he would be asking me tonight. I knew tonight he would ask me about how I got my quirk, and due to my deep seeded admiration I don’t think I would be able to lie to him. I would have to be honest and tell him about One For All; I have no clue how he would react. Of course I hoped that he may say something else instead. I hoped we could finally address the elephant in the room and be able to move past this anger and resentment that he has toward me because the feelings I have for him I have never been able to say out loud. As we walked I thought about how things would be after tonight. Everyone would know about my quirk. Kacchan would never keep my secret. Would he?

~~~

He said he would keep my secret. Which is important, but as I tend to my wounds all I can think about is the giant leap that we have made. He thought that I looked at him like he was weak, but really I looked at him hoping that his strength would take me down. Even Aizawa yelling at us went in one ear and out the other. I couldn’t stop replaying the way he had grabbed me. The way he slammed me into the ground. Together we walked back to our dorm.

“Walk behind me.” Kacchan said. He was stern, but he wasn’t yelling at least. I went ahead and did as he said I slowed myself down so that I fell behind him. He scoffed and I heard him mumble “What is wrong with you.” I didn’t know what he meant. He was doing me a favor tonight I figured it was best not to challenge him especially after we had just gotten in trouble for fighting. How could Kacchan be so inconsiderate

“URRGHH I thought we had settled this already. We are you so infuriating.” I felt my temperature rising and One For All began to pulse through my body at 1%. It happens sometimes when my emotions get the best of me but it's not enough to be noticeable or perform any destruction just gives me a little boost.

“I thought we had settled this as well. YOU SAID YOU WANTED TO BEAT ME. Yet you sit there and take my commands like a subordinate??? You were supposed to step up. You were supposed to be an actual challenge yet even in simple interactions you fall short.” He took a step toward me. 2%

“Fine you want me to stand up to you at every turn? I can do that.” 3%

“NO! YOU STILL DON’T GET IT? WHAT ARE YOU STUPID?” I could feel the rage within Kacchan start to build up. We were standing right outside the dorm I started to think that maybe eyes of the other other students could be peering through their windows, but it was late and unlikely. “I DON’T JUST WANT YOU TO STAND UP TO ME I WANT YOU TO CHALLENGE ME.” 4%

“Challenge you?” I retorted.

“YES. For crying out loud your always so repressed I want you to speak up and use that annoying voice of yours. I want you to stop allowing me to walk all over you. I need you to push through me for once. I may want you to walk behind me, but I want you to give me a reason why you deserve to walk next to me…” Kacchan continued on. 5 I watched as his lips moved but could only think of one thing and before I knew it I took a step toward him and then another and then my hands reached out and I shoved him backward. It took me a moment to realize that I was at One For All 5%, but I noticed pretty quickly when Kacchan fell to the ground. I felt my power quickly decrease. I didn't mean to hurt him.

~~~

Kacchan

He reached his hand out to me. “Are you okay?” I had quick flashbacks to when we were kids. He always thought of me as weak. I am sick of it. I began to stand on my own but I saw his face. He looked angry with me. “TAKE MY HAND. Why won’t you let me help you? You will let me help you or you will end up back on the ground.” Finally, he spoke up. He challenged me for once. I was almost up but I took his hand for the final lift. A shock ran up my spine. Not anything he or I did, but it was as if for once I saw him in a different light.

~~~

Deku

He took my hand and I saw his eyes round out. He looked calm for once. I put in a bit more effort than I should have when I pulled him up. He landed on his feet less than an inch away from me. I looked up at him, and his eyes stared back at me. This was the first time his eyes didn’t seem angry. He leaned in for a moment; then took a step back.

“I could have gotten up by myself. Don’t expect any gratitude.” I looked down and he was still holding my hand. I didn’t want to say anything because I knew that he would quickly pull away. Instead of speaking up I took a step forward tugging him forward as well to close the gap he had created. I know it is a dangerous task both emotionally and physically, but I would be willing to spend the rest of my life closing that gap until there was no space between us. I was still looking down to the side at our fingers beginning to intertwine. We were so close I was sure that if I were to look up our lips could touch, but was I ready to admit to him what I want most aside from being a hero is to have him in my life forever.

Suddenly I felt his other hand graze my arm with just two fingers as it moved up to right underneath my chin. I felt him guide my face to meet his. He looked at me for a moment. I could feel the space between our lips was practically non-existent; if I were to speak they would touch one another. He closed his eyes and leaned his forehead to touch mine.

“For once Midoriya, tell me what you want.” Kacchan whispered. I don’t think I had ever heard him call me by my real name before… At least not to my face. He pulled his forehead away from mine and our eyes met again. I didn’t know if I could just lean in. All I wanted was attainable right here right now. Would I let the moment slip away? I know that whatever happens tonight he will return to the spiteful irritated ball of anger tomorrow.

: ̗̀➛ S62 childhood headcanons 𐇵

»» author's note: some hcs about those s62 characters we hardly have any info on! TW for the canon typical violence, mentions of child neglect and similar things, eds, abuse.

»» What characterizes, for me, the s62 is that none of them have "a place to go to"

➛Yasuhiro Mutō

» He grew up in a broken family. His mother was a battered woman, and although Yasuhiro was never abused, he witnessed her constantly being beaten.

» When he was seven years old his parents divorced and his mother took custody of him. By then, he had already turned into a troublesome boy.

» He was never a model student. He didn't bully others, but he could grab anyone in lunch time and beat them up without saying a word. He used to smoke in the bathrooms and hang out with other troublesome kids like him, even though he didn't consider them friends.

» He always felt somewhat alone.

» On the outside he was a quiet guy, quite expressionless and barely speaking. However, inside he had fire. If something made him angry, he didn't hesitate for a single moment to crush what was bothering him.

» He was expelled several times for bad behavior. His strength always made him respected by all the schools he went through.

» The night before he was arrested and sent to juvie, he had an argument with his mother. Things escalated and he ended up hitting her. It's his biggest regret.

» When he left juvie, his mother kicked him out of the house. Well, she didn't kick him out. She directly never opened the door for him. Yasuhiro was left completely alone. He ended up turning to Izana and together they gave name and shape to the Generation of Brutality.

» Since then, everything has happened. Drug trafficking, small-scale prostitution, beatings, extortion. Yasuhiro and Izana were feared wherever they went.

» When Izana left for some reason (he later found out that izana cut himself off from everyone because of shin's death), he was left alone again. That's when Mikey found him and proposed to join the Toman.

» He had problems with drugs, but managed to recover.

» Yasuhiro used to go to a small coffee shop in his neighborhood to hang out. He became friends with the owner, an older lady who treated him as if he were her grandson and who always gave him desserts. Thanks to that relationship, he managed to redirect his life, and also have a dream: to have his own coffee shop in the future.

» His calm temperament contrasts with his brutal strength. He's a stoic and firm boy, lover of discipline and authoritarianism. After getting a job it began his interest in historical literature. He liked to read about wars and empires while having a coffee.

» Meeting Haruchiyo was one of the best things that happened to him.

» Sanzu became like a little brother to him. Someone to warn not to use drugs, not to get into trouble, someone to hang out with even if it was in silence, since Haruchiyo was a quiet boy.

» Haruchiyo reminded him of himself and the other members of S62. Hence, he told him that it seemed he had no place to go and that they were similar.

» During the year and a half that they were together, they formed a special bond. Or at least for him it was. He took a liking to him and they even got to share a apartment on one occasion when Haruchiyo was short of money. He came to know that he had left home, but never more than that. Haruchiyo was very closed, and Yasuhiro tried to open his heart.

» His peers always came to him for advice. Especially Kakucho, whom everyone treated as one of the group.

➛Haitani Brothers

» Roppongi natives. Their parents had a lot of money, their father was a prosecutor and their mother a surgeon.

» Despite the luxurious appearance of Roppongi and its inhabitants, they had none of it. Their father mistreated them constantly, he was kinda passive-aggressive, the kind of father who throwed them in the face that he was supporting them with his money and they couldn't complain, the kind of father who finded it very easy to hit them because he thought they were property and not persons.

No Christmas presents, no birthday parties, it was all discipline. If one of his sons failed something he'll made up a mess. The Haitani brothers were quite relaxed and normal in their academic life and that made him very angry. Ran always skipped classes, and Rindou was constantly distracted.

» Ran snapped back at their father constantly. The fights were so strong that to this day Rindou still feels anxiety when he hears someone scream in an argument. It was the first time he saw Ran being violent towards someone and he'll never forget it.

» Despite Rindou being the most sadistic, deep down he's quite sensitive.

» Rindou frequented clubs to escape from his reality. That's where he learned how to use DJ equipment. He also bragged about all the money he had to feel better about himself and create a facade to hide behind.

His alter ego was the strong, attractive boy that everyone loved and praised. When he returned home, he was nothing more than a nuisance to his parents, an offal with which they verbally retaliated.

» On the other hand, Ran always preferred quiet places like libraries to sleep among books.

» Ran was recruited to Max Maniacs after being watched beating up someone who tried to rob him on the street. He really hated drugs and that kind of things. From the beginning he thought of taking advantage of the gang.

» Rindou followed him. He liked to feel he had authority. It was the first time they introduced themselves as Haitani brothers. They refused to follow orders that didn't include both of them at the same time.

» All the money that Ran stole from the Max Maniacs executives he used to leave their house for good and rent an apartment with his brother.

» Then they challenged the leaders of Roppongi Kyougoku, the famous battle that led them to rise in (criminal) popularity and be arrested.

» During their time on Max Maniacs, in fact, they were already quite known for having no mercy with their opponents and, of course, a great sense of fashion.

» Ran is actually a very calm person, but with a very fragile barrier. He's easily annoyed but won't say it, he'll just wait for the right moment to take brutal revenge. He's extremely smart.

» Rindou spent hours in the gym because he never liked his physique. He worked for it until he liked himself.

» Ran went on to develop an eating disorder.

» When they left the juvie they already had a well built reputation so it wasn't difficult for them to get everything they wanted.

➛Shion Madarame

» He lived alone with his alcoholic father. His mother left him behind when he was six years old.

» He suffered quite a bit of neglect and hardly bathed as a child. The money was often not enough for new clothes or school supplies. Shion was the boy who always borrowed pens and pencils because his father preferred to spend all his money on alcohol.

» Due to lack of care, he was always disheveled and some of his classmates shunned him because of his bad smell. He hardly had any friends.

» He fell in love with the first person who agreed to do a group project with him. However, his skills for love are nil and he got nothing. He never knew how to interact with love interests, nor how to cope with that feeling.

» Shion always hated his father, even though he ended up being just as arrogant and boastful as him.

» When he was a child he quite liked to draw. If he stayed home alone, he could spend hours drawing, coloring or gluing tree leaves on paper, marking his hands with pencils. He was good with artistic things and surprisingly had patience for scrapbooking.

» Over time that skill cooled, but as a child he dreamed of being a manga artist.

» The first person he admired was Izana. It was something like respect at first sight. At first he tried hard to please him and always orbited around him. He felt a rivalry towards Kakucho because he was the one who had the most confidence with Izana.

» Indeed, he could never resemble Kakucho. It's his biggest frustration.

» Despite being really annoying when he sets his mind to it, he has an impeccable sense of loyalty. He would die for Izana if necessary and the only thing he would regret would be that he was nothing more than a "weak dog" for others.

» He's twisted. He won't hesitate to get into a fight if he hears Izana's name being used in a bad way. He also doesn't like being teased. He easily loses control.

» He's not good at fighting but stay away from him if he's carrying a knife or knuckle dusters.

» As a child he liked to skate and his scar is from a fall, although he'll say it was from a fight.

» Urgently needs a hug.

» He and Rin hit it off instantly because they both get excited easily in fights. Ran always keeps a close eye on them because he's sharped eyed and see when they're not realizing that something's wrong.

» He developed an anxiety disorder.

➛Kanji Mochizuki

» He's an orphan.

» He grew up in an orphanage in Kawasaki, maybe that's why he understands Izana so well. When he was a kid he was quite active. He didn't mess with the weakest, but he liked to command authority and respect.

When he had the chance, he left the place with his friends and together they formed Jugen, in which he was the leader.

» The discovery of an abuse case caused the orphanage to close, some time later. Mochizuki found out that one of his Jugen mates had been abused back then, so they searched for the director.

They found him when the police were taking him away in handcuffs and Mochizuki beat him up. He smashed in the face of the cop who tried to stop him and he was sent to the juvie.

» In juvie he was quite respected for having sent an abuser to the hospital half dead. He got along well with the locals, and his fellow Jugen mates sent him letters from outside.

» He wasn't a troublemaker. He always did his homework and attended all the programs and classes that were taught there. He liked patio time and exercising by running every morning

» When he met Izana he decided to disband Jugen to follow him. He urged his former teammates to join Tenjiku.

» He ate a lot. He was one of those kinds of people capable of repeating a dish three times and eating the leftovers of others.

» When he met Shion he thought he was crazy. At first he couldn't stand him for always showing off and being so loud.

» He cares a lot about his physical image. He shaves regularly and takes care of his skin. On one occasion Ran complimented how good his hair looked and that was the best day of his life.

» He was always very sensitive towards his S62 teammates. He sensed Izana's loneliness just seeing him speak once, the Haitani's trust issues, the fact that Shion would always leave when someone offered to drink alcohol for fun.

» Something he doesn't like about himself is that he can't quit smoking.

» He likes to spend time alone. When he feels nervous he goes to Jugen's old hideout to smoke or just think

➛Izana Kurokawa (not exactly about his childhood since we already now about it)

» He has undiagnosed adhd.

» He has long conversations with his fish. No one can convince me otherwise.

» His fish lives better than him. He could spend hours just looking at his pet. The latter calms him down and he does it whenever he feels anxious.

» He finds Shion insistent and somewhat annoying. He always orders Kakucho to keep him away from him because his enthusiasm gives him headaches.

» Ran, Yasuhiro and he share a taste for Queen.

» After Shinichiro's death he was on the verge of falling into an addiction to hypnosedatives. He had... some harmful thoughts.

» He randomly zooms out when someone talks to him.

» A childish taste he has are stickers, collecting them. He has a folder full of them.

» Since his time as leader of the Black Dragons, he didn't grow his hair that long again, since it was difficult for him to take care of it. He wasn't very devoted to the physical image of him until he grew up.

» He secretly envy Ran's flawless skin. He had acne that left some marks that he doesn't like.

» He never asks for advice. If he has a problem he'll swallow it and move on, without anyone knowing. He hates crying, he hates it as much as one day he hated himself

» Everybody finds out when he's having a bad day because he treats those around him badly.

» He has a huge resting bitch face. He never controls his expressions.

» Needs a hug but hates physical contact.

» If he has to complain about something, he does it with Kakucho. That poor boy bears all of Izana's annoyances.

» He has a terrifying facility for self-destruction, for losing control and losing himself as well.

Wisteria

┏━°⌜防風鈴 ⌟°━┓

Chapter 4

┗━°⌜防風鈴 ⌟°━┛

“Umemiya.”

“We’ve got trouble.”

“Yeah, I know,” The male responds instantly, taking the group off guard. The sun was beating on their heads, a cool wind refreshing them.

“We don’t have enough seeds!” 

The white haired fighter turns around in his crouched position, pointing at his plants. Sparks of shock appeared behind the group of first years, everyone deadpanning at the response of the third year and their representative.

“There’s one extra planting spot left over there! Is there anything you wanna eat?”

“Forget about the plants for now. Shishito-”

“SHISHITO PEPPERS?! DUDE, YOUR STOMACH FLARES UP LIKE A DISCO ALL THE TIME! YOU SURE YOU CAN EAT THAT?!” Umemiya cuts Hiragi off.

“They're… not even on the same page…” Nirei mumbles, nervous about the interaction in front of them.

“That’s…” Sakura mumbled, being confused that this sunshine, all smiles, and green thumb of a man is- “...Umemiya?”

Ryuu pats Sakura’s shoulder before the student is yanked by Sugishita, who glared at him.

“‘That esteemed man is,’ you mean!!” Sugishita glares, eyes wide and a large snarl on his face. “And it’s Umemiya-san to you!!!”

‘He’s such a doberman…!' Ryuu sweatdrops, a picture of Sugishita and a doberman side by side.

“Oh, shaddup already.”

“Oh, Whaaaaat?” Ryuu, Sakura and Sugishita turn towards the voice of their senior. “Why’s everyone here?” Beside him, Hiragi trembles harshly, bringing a small giggle out of Ryuu. 

Sitting down at the gazebo, there is a lot of chatter around. Umemiya rambled on about the different vegetables he has planted, Sugishita listens intently, nodding constantly at what Umemiya is rambling about, Hiragi angrily mumbles beside Nirei, while both Suo and Ryuu comfort and pat the middle schooler, who is about to have an anxiety attack.

“They’re all just grass of some kind, aren’t they?” Sakura, who seemed quite annoyed, asks. What he just said sparked an anger in Sugishita again, and made Umemiya keep talking about the difference between his plants.

Ryuu smiles before standing up and tapping Umemiya’s shoulder.

“Excuse me, Umemiya-san,” Ryuu gets the male’s attention, “We have a guest that would like your attention, sir.”

He presents the middle schooler, who stands up quickly after being given the chance. 

“Please let me…” He stutters “Explain myself.”

Ryuu sits down, patting the kid on the back to show his support.

"I saw someone shoplifting in the shopping district… I went after him… but before I knew it, I was already in Shishitoren’s territory… and when their guys started chasing me around… I thought that was it… I was done for.” 

“But these two saved me…” Sakura and Sigushita perk up at the mention of their actions. “And… he patched me up…”

Ryuu smiled at the kid, who’s tears started to drip down onto the picnic table. “I always wanted to be a member of Bofurin… and I got ahead of myself… But in the end, all I did was spark a fight with Shishitoren.”

“I’m… really sorry…” 

The boy bows in guilt, tears falling from his face in streams. “Sasaki…” 

“How do you know my name…?”

The white haired male bows slightly, making himself visible to the bowing middle schooler with a large smile. “Thanks, man.”

The air surrounding them became lighter and easier to breathe in as Umemiya spoke up. “I know what you did triggered a fight with them, but that’s only a result of your conviction to protect the town and its people right?”

“There’s nothing to apologize for!”

“Just leave the rest… to you good-ol big brothers here!”

Umemiya hits his chest with his fist, proud of himself and his group. He’s very confident in the strength of Bofurin.

…

“So, How did these guys save you?” Umemiya points at Sakura and Sugishita, a bright smile on his face as he speaks with the middle schooler.

“Oh, Uhh,” The kid stuttered, “Th-they kicked the other guy into the air.” Ryuu snorted, a small grin on his face. The rep quickly looks at Ryuu before laughing.

“THEY KICKED HIM INTO THE AIR?!”

The two freshmen stiffened and paled at the loud call out of their representative. “Man!” Umemiya lets out a hearty laugh, “THE POOR GUYS OVER AT SHISHITOREN!”

 “I know talking to them’s not gonna do any good anyway… but, WOW!” Everyone looked at him like he grew another head, “You sent him flying with a kick, Huh?!” Ryuu looks towards Hiragi, who clutched his belly and gritted his teeth in pain. He searches his green bag, sticking out his tongue before sliding over a new packet since he basically threw the other ones he opened before away.

“I’m terribly sorry, sir. I was with them, but even still…”

“Hiragi, you’re always trying to shoulder the blame by yourself. I’m the one who asked you to watch those two…” Umemiya pouted, comically glaring at the sharp toothed male as Hiragi grabs the pills that were just slid towards him, shaking his head toward Ryuu, who only showed him three more packs of Gas-Kun 10. 

Nirei whispered something towards Sakura, who quickly jumped up and retorted. “SH-SHUT UP ABOUT THAT ALREADY! KEEP YOUR DAMN COMMENTS TO YOURSELF!!” 

“Oh, Whaaaaaat?” Umemiya grins, one of his eyebrows raising as he teased “Were you picking a fight?”

Sakura quickly jumps up, slapping his hand on the wooden table, “TH-THOSE ASSHOLES CALL THEMSELVES THE DEVOTEES OF POWER AND CRAP, BUT THEY’D STILL BEAT UP PEOPLE WEAKER THAN THEM! IT’S SO LAME! I JUST CALL It as I see…” His yelling slowly turns into a mumble “...It…”

Everyone quietly stares at Sakura, who became a bit more self conscious every second that passed. Suo smiles “You said it, not me…” everyone sighs.

“But… Sakura’s views are not wrong…” Ryuu mumbles, scratching his cheek. Umemiya pats his back before quickly standing up from beside him, grabbing everyone's attention.

“Right, I see…” He sounded serious. Sakura stared defensively, stiff and ready to act if Umemiya were to do something.He looked almost like a cat to Ryuu, ready to pounce if his owner were to go pet him, hairs raised and arched back to be able to seem bigger. It was almost cute. 

Umemiya’s hand quickly swung up, open palmed and it arrived at its destination quickly. “Hmmmm! Well said!” He patted Sakura’s head repeatedly, everyone looking at the two in amazement, while Sugishita jumped in his seat like a cat.‘Everyone is acting like cats here…’ Ryuu thought, a small smile on his face as he watched everything go down. “I thought so, too. They’ve been pretty lame lately.”

“Sakura…” Everyone looks up.“... I heard about what happened on main street yesterday.” 

“And today you went and saved Sasaki…”

“With Sugishita!” Ryuu whispered, not wanting Sugishita to be left out, especially since he idolizes Umemiya. Umemiya’s downturned eyes closed, a big grin on his face as he ruffled Sakura’s cute black and white hair. 

“Thanks so much for protectin’ your family,” He pauses, Sakura’s eyes are wide and mouth open in shock as he looks at Umemiya like he’s from another universe. “I’m so happy we’ve got ourselves another reliable little brother." Ryuu smiles, and shakes his head, everyone seemed glad and happy but Sugishita seemed a bit jealous about the situation happening beside him.

‘What… the hell…?’

‘I feel the tips of my ears burning…’

Sakura’s fists slowly unclench, as he relaxes. ‘It… pisses me off so much… that my body’s relaxing…’

‘For some odd reason… I feel like I understand why they’re all so attached to him now…’ images of the past interactions with the class appear in his mind.

‘When I’m with him… I feel safe…’ 

Sakura blushes and pulls away from the older male, “WHO’RE YOU CALLIN’ ‘LITTLE BROTHER’?!”

“I think of everyone in this town as family!” Umemiya smiles as Sakura growls.

Ryuu smiles, before tensing and standing up, grabbing the attention of Suo and the middle schooler. Ryuu sniffs and covers his nose before sneezing quietly as he walks away. Something was gonna happen sooner or later.

 Soon after he stands up, Hiragi’s phone starts ringing, making him jump and have everyone turn towards him in alarm. “Kaji? What’s up?” He pulls his phone up to his ear.

“Shishi…Toren…” 

“KAJI?! HEY, KAJI! WHAT’S WRONG?!”

“Is something happening?” Umemiya asks, worried about the situation of one of the second years being in danger.

“GREEEEETINGGSS!!!” Everyone turns towards the source of the sound, Ryuu already looking at the situation from above with his hands clenching at the wire fencing, teeth biting at his bottom lip. “HELLO? HELLOOOO! HELLOOOO!! GREETINGS UP THERE!!” The rest of the first year gang and both Umemiya and Hiragi stood up and joined Ryuu at the edge of the roof.

Looking down, the fallen students from Bofurin and the perpetrator, they looked like ants from their position on the roof of the school.

“I’M THE LEADERS OF SHISHITOREN!” the boy calls out from below. 

“CHOJI TOMIYAMA!!”

Ryuu pushes himself away from the edge of the roof, going back and grabbing his bag. 

“UUUUUMEEE-CHAAAAAN! I’M HERE TO CHALLENGE YOU… TO A FIGHT! FIGHT!! FIGHT!!!”

“TH-THE LEADER?! WHY IS THE LEADER HERE?!” Nirei freaked out, Sakura grinning at the memory of Jo Togame only being the second in command and sensing that this Choji guy is stronger than him since he’s the leader of the Lions, only to shudder when he sensed something from behind him. Turning around, Sakura looked at the third years who were now walking away, Ryuu right behind them

When Sakura saw Ryuu walking behind, it was an instant movement as he started rushing behind them, taking Nirei off guard, Suo, Sugishita, and Sasaki going right after him.

“W-Wait for mee!!” He calls out.

A few minutes after, they reached the entrance of the school, Umemiya walking forwards, a serious air surrounding him. “Stay here,” he commands.

“Don’t give me that crap! If you’re goin’ to fight, let me in on it, too!”

“Sakura…” Ryuu grabs his shoulder

“I won’t say it again.”

Sakura, under Ryuu’s hold, trembles at the commanding tone in Umemiya’s voice. 

‘Shit… I can’t force my legs to take another step… He was all smiles earlier, but now… is he really… The same person…?’

The white haired male walks forward, leaving the other students behind at the front of the school as he approaches the shorter male. “Yo, Tomiyama. Look at what you’ve got there.” In the shorter’s hand was one of Bofurin’s students, bruised up face and bloody nose, being grabbed by the hair.

“That belongs to Furin.”

“Yup! I know!!” 

The shorter had a devilish grin, his eyes dull and emotionless. Ryuu shuddered.

The boy's eyes reminded him too much of his Gramps eyes after the death of his mother.

Begin Again

Chapter 6

In the days that followed, there was not a single break for Mulciber and Avery. The boys placed dungbombs in their dorms, dyed their hair a bright orange and placed explosives in their food.

They didn’t die.

Sadly.

They just had to spend a few days in the hospital wing and the boys all received two weeks of detention.

But that’s not all. They were constantly getting hexed. Not just by them but by the rest of her friends. Soon enough everyone at Hogwarts found out about the fight and many Gryffindors, and few students from other houses, started hexing the two boys as well.

It was safe to say that they were going through hell. They constantly had to watch their back, and even then they would still get hexed.

Most Slytherins didn’t care as most of them didn’t like the two boys either, some even joined in hexing them, so they would just turn a blind eye when it would happen.

As the time passed she figured the boys would just let it go as they had already gotten their revenge.

It wasn’t until a few weeks after it happened that James arrived to the common room covered in blood.

It was late at night and the common room was empty, everyone already was in their dorms as the curfew had already passed a few hours ago but she had trouble sleeping so she decided to go to the common room to read by the fireplace.

“James! Are you ok? What happened?” She asked as she ran over to him.

“Aren’t you supposed to be sleeping?”

“I couldn’t sleep so I came downstairs to read.” She says after making him sit down and beginning to clean his face with a random cloth she found. “But don’t try and change the subject. What happened?”

“I might’ve gone out looking for Mulciber and Avery.” James replies while looking away from her.

“You fought them? Why?” She asks incredulously. “You could’ve seriously been hurt! It’s hardly fair for two to go up against one.”

“Careful, love. It might sound as if you’re worried about me.” He says with a cheeky grin.

Stephanie scoffs while trying to hide her blushing cheeks, “I’m not worried! It was just an observation.”

“Then why are you cleaning the blood off my face if you aren’t worried?”

“Don’t try to change the conversation. Why did you go and fight them?”

“Because I wanted to. They deserved it after hurting my girl.” He replies while shrugging.

Stephanie felt her stomach flip and fill with butterflies at his comment. ‘My girl’. She held back the grin she so desperately wanted to let out while squealing in her head.

She wanted to run up the stairs, wake up Hermione and tell her about what he said before squealing while jumping up and down.

But she forced herself to stay seated next to him. She didn’t want to act like a fool, especially in front of him.

“They could’ve hurt you, badly.” She quietly mutters.

“I don’t care. I would gladly end up in St. Mungo’s for defending you.” James replied.

She stopped cleaning his face when he tucked a piece of her hair behind her ear. She held her breath as she made eye contact with him, his blue eyes focusing only on her. They silently stared at one another before she looked away, feeling nervous.

“Did you win?” She jokingly asks causing him to laugh.

“I think so.” He replies smugly. “They’re in the hospital wing and I’m not.”

“How do you know that they’re in the hospital wing?”

“We may or may not have been caught by Professor Slughorn.” He replies with a sheepish smile.

“James!” Stephanie exclaimed incredulously.

“It’s just detention!”

“How long did you get detention for?”

“Well I got two weeks and they only got one.” He replies while rolling his eyes. “Favoritism.”

“To be fair, you did beat up two students.” Stephanie says with a slight grimace.

“How dare you! I did it to defend your honor!” James dramatically gasps causing her to laugh before he starts smiling while staring at her.

“Well, my knight in shining armor, what would you like as a reward?” She asks with a wide smile.

“A date.”

She stares back at him in shock. Even though, she had agreed to go on a date with him right before they went on summer break, she had been avoiding it.

Not because she didn’t want to go on a date with him - Merlin, no - but rather because every time she thought about it, she would get so excited that she would begin to feel sick to her stomach.

She was quite terrified, if she was being honest. She didn’t want to embarrass herself in front of him but she also didn’t want to go on the date, only for him to get bored of her and realize that she wasn’t worth it.

James could tell she was shocked by what he said. He knew she was quite nervous about going on a date with him, mainly because Chris told him after overhearing her conversation with Hermione and Lily, but also because he could tell she was nervous.

He acted quite confident in front of his friends and in front of everyone really but he was just as terrified. He was scared that they would go on a date and she would find him annoying or not up to her standards. That maybe she would see him in the way so many people did, an immature arrogant spoiled brat.

“A date?” She nervously asks.

“Yeah. We can go to hogsmeade on Saturday.” He replies before growing even more nervous. “If- If you’d like, of course.”

“How could I say no to the boy who got in a fight to defend my honor?” Stephanie says with a shy smile.

“Is that a yes?” James asks with a growing smile.

“Yes, it’s a yes.” She replies while giggling.

“I’ll meet you by the entrance then, after breakfast?” He asks before she nods.

“I’ll see you there.”

“I’ll be waiting.” James replies with a lovesick smile causing her to giggle again.

“Goodnight, James.”

“Goodnight, Stephanie.”

They stood from the couch facing one another before Stephanie moves towards him. She stands on her tippy toes before placing a soft kiss on his cheek. As she pulls away, she can see him stare back at her in shock causing her to giggle.

“Goodnight.” She says for the last time.

As she walks up the stairs, heading to her dorm, she is unaware of the lovesick look he stares at her with. He softly held his cheek, where she placed the kiss, while grinning excitedly before fist bumping the air and jumping in excitement.

It was safe to say that neither of them slept that night.

Stephanie laid in bed imagining what would happen during their date and what she would wear. And maybe even what their future would look like if their date went successful.

Would he also want a summer wedding? What dress would she choose? Where would they get married? Who would they invite? Will they have kids? Would they be boys or girls? And how many kids would they have?

She was completely unaware of the fact that James Potter laid in his bed awake with a wide grin as he stared at the ceiling thinking of the exact same thing that she was.

If I Told You - James Lewis/Reader

Warnings: Fluff, slow dancing together, general sweetness, tiny bit of James-related angst.

Wordcount: 1593

Summary: Sometimes he was too busy with work to remember how much you loved him, sometimes he felt like he didn't deserve it after everything he'd been through; good thing you planned on never letting him forget again.

Notes: Getting this ask made me realize I copied the wrong emoji so until I fixed it James was the Cool Teacher lmao anyways I loved writing this one, put on a super sweet song and got to just let loose about how much I love James, he doesn't get nearly enough love so I hope you enjoy~ 💗💗💗

It’d been a few months already since he’d moved out of the house he’d spent the past five years in with his ex-wife, a few months since you’d helped him escape empty bedrooms and broken walls, and he was still having a bit of trouble settling in. The divorce had really beat him down, brought about an old depression that had sunk deep into his bones, and you were constantly doing everything you could to draw it out of him again. It was an endless well inside of him, but you could see on his face that the contents deep inside were getting a little lighter with each touch of your hands and kiss to his cheek.

Currently, he was sitting at your dining room table, if it could even be called a dining room, living alone in a single bedroom apartment didn’t really offer too much space in the leeway of sectioning off the large room you’d divided into three when you’d moved in. He was more than a few hours into grading papers by now, face drawn in concentration yet still looking relaxed as he went over the answers his students had provided him, a genuine love for teaching so evident in every corner of him, showing the most through his eyes. He handled each paper delicately, like they were all something to be preserved, saved long after his class had moved on to their next semester, each one precious to him because they’d taken their time to answer.

He was his most calm in these moments, eyes flicking between the scribbled words on the pages and the perfectly typed ink of his books, his old computer taking up half of the table and faintly whirring away as it waited for his next command, his own office still in the works and this having to do for now. He wrote something down on the sheet he was on as you watched him from your place against the kitchen counter, something circled in red, something else written in blue, hands constantly moving. He’d been at it for hours now, the night growing late with no signs of stopping, James sharing that sentiment as he glanced at his watch and stretched before going to the next page.

He hadn’t eaten yet, hadn’t moved for hours, used to this routine thanks to his wife just leaving him be without a care, but you weren’t her, you wouldn’t let that happen.

You poured two cups of coffee and sat down across from him, careful to keep away from the messy pile he’d made since returning home that afternoon, James not even looking up until you stretched out your leg and brushed the side of your foot against his shin. He didn’t jump but it looked like he could’ve, so focused that he just blinked a few times before coming back to you, it taking him a moment to remember where he was and why you were there. It made you smile, he was constantly getting so wrapped up in himself that he’d sometimes forget that he’d even moved, everything around him a blur until he’d see your face and know he wasn’t alone anymore.

You held out a cup for him to take which he graciously did, a soft smile tugging at the corner of his lips as the hot liquid spread through him like wildfire, his shoulders relaxing just a little after he rolled one, then the other. ‘Thanks,’ he said so quietly you almost missed it, also used to talking to himself when he was home, his voice still so low even though he had someone to listen to him now.

‘No problem,’ you replied, your elbows resting on the table. ‘Do you want me to make you something? It’s almost 9,’ you reminded him, James looking at his watch again and actually taking in the time.

‘You don’t have to, you can head to bed, I won’t be long.’ It was a lie, he still had a lot to do and he was fully prepared to ignore his own needs in order to do it, even though he technically didn’t need to finish grading until Thursday night.

‘I want to.’ You got up and circled the table, your cup left behind as you massaged his tired shoulders to help ease his stiffness just a little, a selfish grin appearing when he let his head tilt back at the relief. You found he was always tense, not just from concentrating but from always holding himself so tightly, like he thought he was taking up too much space the moment he was away from the chalkboard where he could freely stand and wax poetic about whatever classic literature he’d chosen for that lesson. You wished he would do it at home too, loving hearing him talk so passionately about the things he cared about, your favourite part of it being his smile, so wide as he talked compared to the sheepish one you always got when he thought he was bothering you in some way.

Your hands moved from his shoulders to his chest, your chin resting on him as you held him in your arms, James reaching up to hold you back before hesitating, letting his own fall back to his lap as he stiffened again. ‘I can make something later, you don’t have to feel like you need to,’ he tried to say, rejecting your offer again out of nowhere, your brows furrowing as you nuzzled into his temple.

‘James, I love you, if there’s anything you need I want to be able to give it to you,’ you insisted gently, his head leaning away from your gracious touch, you were too sweet to him.

‘Why, though…?’ There it was, it often came back around to this, all the self-hatred that’d been hammered into him resurfacing again as his well instantly filled to the brim, but you wouldn’t let it, no tonight. You pressed a gentle kiss to his temple before getting out your phone, quickly finding his favourite song and turning up the volume all the way. You set the phone down as the song started to play, James looking up at you in confusion before you took his hands and got him to stand, using just enough force to let him know you wanted him to join you, but never making him feel like he had to. 

He sighed and stood, giving the remaining papers one more look before you laced your fingers together, your body swaying to the beat as you started to dance, James unable to resist the sight before he couldn’t help but join you. His dancing was clumsy at first, it always was, but having you there to guide him helped a lot as he followed your lead, socked feet tapping over scuffed hardwood. You had fun with it at first, making him take up as much space as he possibly could, your hand in his as you got him to twirl you, James laughing in embarrassment as you then did the same to him.

When the song ended and something related came on next, you tried to go back to your phone to choose something else or replay it, James not letting you go as he spun you again, your back crashing into his chest as he lost his balance and bumped into the couch. You both steadied yourselves, his arms crossed over your chest as he started a new dance, this one slower as he let his chin drop against your shoulder, his heavy breathing evening out as you swayed together.

You let your eyes close, enjoying the moment before he nuzzled into you, his glasses poking your cheek as he looked down at the floor, the well still full despite your best efforts. ‘Why do you love me so much?’ he wanted to know, your hands firmly over his own as you stopped him from stilling.

‘Because you’re so much more than what they made you think you are.’

It was the truth, and you’d wanted to say it to him from the moment he first told you about his divorce, the words spilling out before he could realize that it didn’t make for good or even appropriate first date conversation at all, but you’d been patient with him then as he’d drank himself into oblivion to make it all go away, his focus torn from you with each glass, and you’d be patient now. He held you a little tighter, not wanting to let you go as you spun in his arms until you were face to face, your dance continuing again as you peppered his face with kisses, let him feel each one and how much you loved him with each press of your lips against warm skin. His glasses were fogging he was getting so emotional, and you took them off to hook over the top of your shirt, your hands finding his cheeks as you got him to look at you.

‘I love you so much, James,’ you told him as he held onto you, a single tear slipping down to run against your fingers, your thumb brushing it away tenderly. ‘I love you, and I won’t ever let you forget that, okay?’ He nodded, eyes shutting as he smiled, your lips finding his briefly before you were pulling away again, his mouth chasing after yours. ‘Now, what do you want for dinner?’

‘...I really like it when you make the one pasta dish, if you need any help.’

My take on Green Lantern III (Guy Gardner):

Guy Gardner was born to parents Roland and Peggy Gardner in Baltimore. His family moved around a lot (his father was a labourer constantly on the lookout for work), and so Guy Gardner never really had a stable home life. In his first 20 years of life, his family moved from Baltimore to Detroit to Toronto to Vancouver. All over the United States and Canada did his family journey for work. But finally, when guy was around 13, his family settled down in Vancouver. And it's in Vancouver that he would remain.

And besides this constant travelling, guy just never caught a break with his family dynamics. His father was a alcoholic who had a temper and could end up often beating him (either accidentally or intentionally), while his mother was a judgemental hypocrite who hated her husband and often seemed to encourage his worse tendencies. The only member of guy's family that was actually nice to him was his older brother Mace. Both of them pretty much relied upon each other for support in that chaotic household.

Because of this childhood, guy was a very troubled kid. He acted up at school, was opposed to authority figures and generally struggled with the academic parts of school. What kept him going? Well, partially it was his brother's support and encouragement. Part of it was probably a desire to prove himself and make something of himself. But in any case, guy eventually straightened his image and became a good student. (Well, he never did fully lose his hard-headedness and his anger issues. But he did straighten up his image, for the most part).

In a first for his family, guy gets a college/university degree (something his dad, mom and brother never got). He gets a degree in education and psychology from the university of British Columbia. He was also a sports star, playing for the UBC Thunderbirds Hockey team until an injury made him unable to keep playing. The injury really got to him and preyed on his natural insecurity of being unable to make it in this world.

After graduating, guy eventually gets a job as an educational assistant for students with special needs. He finds his work fulfilling, getting to help people and make the world a better place. It makes him feel really happy, for one of the first times in his life.

Guy Gardner is many things: stubborn, kind hearted, bold and strong willed. It's this last trait that made him an ideal green lantern. When Abin Sur falls to earth, his ring located two ideal candidates to replace him on the west coast of North America: Hal Jordan in Southern California, and Guy Gardner in Vancouver. Since Abin Sur was actually in California, Hal Jordan was the lucky one who gets the ring.

After this near brush with greatness, Guy Gardner's life proceeds much as normal. He continues his work as an educational assistant, finally feeling a great personal sense of fulfillment. The ring passes him over once more, making John Stewart a lantern before him. Guy Gardner was always capable of being a hero, but he was always passed over in favour of other candidates. This might be why he sometimes seems a little bitter toward the first two green lanterns.

But eventually, Guy Gardner does get his ring. When an alien spaceship being hunted by the Green Lanterns crash lands in Vancouver, Guy Gardner ends up being recruited to stop it when the Green Lantern on the case dies in combat. And with the help of the Justice League Canada, Guy Gardner manages to send the alien scout ship fleeing for their homeworld. (I'll probably do something with this story. Maybe 40 issues later, the aliens return for a big story arc)?

After this, Guy Gardner has to learn to balance being an educational assistant with also being a Green Lantern and a member of the Justice League Canada. He manages to make it work, but it puts a significant strain on him. No wonder he acts so abrasive when he's a hero, it's taking time away from one of the few things in his life he enjoyed doing (working with those kids). He often chafes under the authority of the lanterns and the league, but he's still one of the bravest men you'll ever know.

koga oogami x gn!reader

word count: 1.9k words

info: fluff, probably inaccurate lore, reader isnt in the idol course but also not a regular student or producer, maybe counts as a song fic ☾ditto - newjeans☽, npc friends that i couldn't think up good names for whoops, minor language near the end.

a/n: i wrote this while at a cousin’s house HELP. this is purely self indulgent because i’ve been thinking about newjeans recently LMAO.

You can remember every moment you’ve shared with Koga ever since you first met back in your first year at Yumenosaki. His ups, his downs, and everything in between, you were there for it all. You remember comforting him whenever Rei used to go overseas, and eventually DEADMANZ’s disbandment. He always tried to be so indifferent, but you could always tell. Of course you could. He would never let anyone see him like this but you. You supported his impulsive B1 DreFes performances, even if you did get in trouble with the council. You can remember the scolding you two would receive from Keito. Your other friends would always see you sulking when you got to your building afterwards. Everything he did, you were always by his side.

Of course, Koga was always there for you too. Whenever he could, he would make it to your practices. When he did, you never really got any progress done. You would always goof off before he “scolds” you for not being on task. and then he proceeds to distract you further. You’ve had to ban him from the practice rooms a few times. In the middle of your own performances, you could always see him somewhere in the crowd. Every time you walked onto the stage, you would scan the crowd to find him. He found out and would purposefully blend in and make you scan even harder. If you never saw him, he would come up to you after your performance and boast about his “win”.

As the years passed with him, you started to view him differently. Your heart would start to beat faster around him. You could feel your face bloom into warmth when you would accidentally brush hands. You’ve spent nights thinking about his touch, how it would feel to hold his slightly callused hands. And since when did you start staring at his lips when you walked together? You would rant to the friends who shared the same course as you.

“That is seriously sappy. You are so head over heels for him,” Shuntaro teased. You glared at him before you heard another voice speak up.

“Literally! It sounds like it came straight out of a romance novel!”, Hikari exclaimed. You groaned, feeling the heat creep back up your cheeks. You really didn’t want to admit it, but it was very obvious to everyone.

You’re in love with Koga Oogami, your best friend.

“HnhnhnnnggAAAAHH!! God I hate this… I don’t know what to do…”, you complain, your hands gripping the sides of your head before dropping them. You prop one of your arms on the table where the three of you sat, resting your head in your hand.

“Oh, I don’t know, maybe just go up to him and tell him you like him?”, Shuntaro suggested, a teasing grin lying on his face. You and Hikari turn to face him, you staring at him with a deadpan expression, and Hikari looking at him as if he murdered someone.

“Dude, they can’t just do that! This is their best best friend. They can’t just casually walk up to him and say ‘Hey, I like you and have liked you since the start of our second year!’”, she argues for you, but you shake your head.

“No no, he’s right. But I’m not doing that. No way,” you look at Hikari, a small almost apologetic smile on your face. She nods. Silence washes over the three of you, not that you minded too much. It takes a bit, but finally someone spoke.

“So, how do you plan on confessing to him?”, Hikari asked you. You didn’t really give the confession much thought. You told yourself that you’d find a way to do it later constantly, even before this conversation, but you never did. you thought about it harder. You want something direct, but still romantic. not abrupt, but not beating around the bush.

What can bridge the two together, you wonder.

“Heeeeyyy, you still there??” Hikari waves a hand in front of your eyes while you blink, focus back on your friends.

“My bad.. I thought about it for a little bit, but I think I have an idea.” You motion for them to lean in and whisper in their ears.

——————

God this was so stupid. That was the most cliché thing you ever thought of. But it’s too late to go back. Your friends are rooting for you now, and you are not chickening out.

Walking next to Koga, you could feel your heart beat out of your chest. You’re not sure what exactly it is. Is it just your feelings for him or is it the anxiety of confessing? The nervousness of messing up your dream scenario? The uncertainty of your best friend becoming your boyfriend or said best friend rejecting you and slowly drifting away afterward? You wish someone could tell you.

Despite all the nerves in your body telling you not to, you managed to ask Koga to wait for you by the front of the school.

“Huh? why d’ya need me to do that? miss me walkin’ you home?”, he teases, leaning forward slightly. You can’t deny that. He has been busy the past few months that you haven’t had time to do so. Still, you jokingly push him away.

“That doesn’t matter right now. I just need you-“ “Hah! You didn’t deny it!” You were cut off short by Koga. You can feel the familiar heat return to your cheeks. This man can be so annoying, but you won’t lie, it was kinda cute.

“If you could let me FINISH, I just need you to meet me there. It’s something important.”

“What’s so important that you need me there? Can’tcha just text or call me?”

All of a sudden your nerves are telling you to back out. To tell him never mind. To keep your relationship the way it is. Don’t ruin it.

“I.. I just need you there, kay?”, you mustered out. He looked at you, admittedly confused, but he left it alone. Whatever it was, he’ll find out later anyway. The two of you make it to the gate and part ways to your respective buildings.

Once you’re sure he’s out of sight, you open your bag, peeking inside before reaching in. You grab a pristine envelope, a paw print sticker sealing the flap shut. You check for any folds or wrinkles, relieved to find none.

‘Even in the worst case scenario, I can at least hope he at least appreciates the effort.’, you thought to yourself sarcastically.

After school came a lot faster than you thought it would. The confession was plaguing you all day, and it was obvious. At least to your friends. You kept thinking of the possible outcomes. Thousands. Thousands of outcomes came to you, some more unrealistic than others.

To say you were anxious was an understatement. But still, you trudged on anyway. You made your way to the front of the main building. It wasn’t difficult to spot Koga, but it was difficult to reach him. The wave of students walking up to friends or leaving made it harder than you thought to get to him him. Still, you made it.

“There ‘ya are. Took ‘ya forever to get here.”

“Not my fault my building is further away from the main building. Besides, don’t you see the sea of other students? I had to weave my way around just to get here!”, you complained. You should’ve thought about this more. There’s way too many people around.

“Well ‘ya should’ve-“ “Yeah, I know, I know. Tell you to meet me somewhere else. Well now we’re going to that somewhere else, okay?” Before he could answer, you grab his hand and run back into the building. You were too focused on getting somewhere private that you didn’t realize that the two of you had intertwined fingers, a pink flush prominent on Koga’s face.

You finally made it to an empty hallway. You let go of his hand. You both take a second to catch your breath.

“What was that for?!”, he yelled.

“I know I said this was important, but I forgot to mention this is also private.”

“Well what is it? I’ve got no clue as ‘ta what this could be.” The question you dreaded, but had also been anticipating for so long. You reach into your bag and hand him the letter.

“To the idiot receiving this letter,

I hope you know I put my whole heart and soul into this.

As you know, we’ve been friends ever since the start of our time at Yumenosaki. Everyday I’ve spent with you has made my life so much better, even if I don’t say it out loud. You’ve been there for me through every important event in not only my performing career, but in my life.

As the days have passed, however, I couldn’t help but feel different around you. I didn’t know what it was at first. I just thought that maybe stage fright was getting to me, since I had a show that week. but it never went away. It only grew. When I sat down to think about it, it all clicked.

My heart would skip beats every time you were near me. I started actively looking to impress you, even in more mundane situations. I looked your way much more than I ever did before. When I lay in bed at night, my thoughts were always filled with you.

My feelings for you, like the memories we share, have grown so big.

I’m in love with you, Koga Oogami.

From,

[name]”

He looked over the letter for what felt like an eternity. The entire time he read it, you couldn’t even look at him. You looked anywhere but him. The silence between you was deafening. He finally spoke up, but he didn’t say anything you expected.

“Say it.”

“..Huh?”

“Say it.”

Out of all the outcomes and scenarios you had envisioned, you never thought he would say this.

“I don’t know what you’re trying to make me say?” You tilt your head in confusion.

“And you call me an idiot. I’m sayin’ to tell me what you wrote to me. Directly. I want ‘ya to.”

And all of sudden, you’re stunned. Your face flushes at his words. Never in a million years did you think this would happen.

“I… I’m in love with you, Koga Oogami.” You feel his callused hands grab hold of yours.

“I’m in love with you too, [name, last name]. ‘Have been for so long.”

You really feel like you’re in heaven. Hesitantly, you go to cup his face, searching for any signs of refusal. Instead, he looks at you with an unfamiliar, yet all too familiar look of tenderness in his eyes. His golden eyes. You always thought they were beautiful.

Subconsciously, you and Koga leaned your faces in closer. Before you knew it, you closed your eyes shut and felt a pair of lips against yours. You've dreamed of this moment for so long, and now it's a reality. His lips fit perfectly against yours, just as you had hoped. You could feel his arms wrap around you, as if ensuring you wouldn’t pull away too early.

Finally, he pulls his lips away from yours. You take a minute to just gaze at him lovingly before cracking and snickering. It isn’t long before he joins too.

“What? We both just confessed to each other and now you’re laughing? Damn.”, he says in between laughs.

“God this was so fucking cheesy.”, You chuckle out.

You wouldn’t have had it any other way.

Ever heard of Jeff the Killer? [JTK rewrite]

Ever heard of Jeff the Killer? He’s become iconic on the internet by now, but he used to be a student at my school. He’s a huge urban legend in my town. Does he count as an urban legend if it actually happened? Anyway, there’s tons of versions of his story, but I’ll tell you the one I’ve heard most often.

Jeff was a 9th grade student who lived with his parents and his brother Liu. He had to move from his hometown due to his dad changing jobs and this affected him a lot. In his hometown he had a few friends and tons of memories and moving made him feel like he was being stripped of everything he had lived up to that point. To make matters worse, the kids at his school had started making fun of him due to his appearance and hobbies. He was constantly ridiculed for being short, chubby, very pale, being alone most of the time, liking to read and play videogames, and many other reasons. Everyone in his school at best ignored him and at worst bullied him daily.

He was always very quiet and introverted, but he became a lot more closed off after moving towns. He barely got out of his room, ate so little he had a massive drop in weight, going from slightly overweight to almost underweight, started carrying around a pocket knife for self defense, stopped talking to the few friends he had, and his relationship with his parents started deteriorating as well. The only person he felt like he could trust was Liu, who he became very protective of. Liu got bullied at school as well, not nearly as much as Jeff, every kid and teen in town seemed to have it against him, but Liu became a target of some of the torment due to being Jeff’s brother. He tried to defend Liu every time anyone made fun of him, but it always ended with the bullies targeting them both.

Three kids in Jeff’s class were especially fond of tormenting him. Their names were Randy, Keith and Troy and they were the pranksters of the school. They planned on pranking Jeff on his birthday, humiliating him in front of the whole school. So, on October 19th, during recess, Randy walked up to Jeff looking apologetic. A crowd followed him and positioned themselves around them. Randy said that he was sorry for treating Jeff badly and that he wanted to make up for it. Jeff was skeptical, but he didn’t get much time to do anything, as a bucket full of mud was poured on him. Everyone laughed and some started yelling insults and put-downs. Some of the teachers heard the commotion and went to see what was going on, but by the time they got there, all they saw was a mud covered Jeff punching Randy with such force he must’ve broken his nose, as all the other kids screamed and ran away.

Jeff and the trio all got in trouble for that, but Jeff got the worst part of it since he broke Randy’s nose. After the prank, the bullying Jeff suffered became way worse, Randy’s friends were furious at him, even those who had simply ignored him or even tried to get along with him now looked at him with disgust in their eyes. He was seen as a monster. This didn’t affect him much tho, he had struggled with anger issues his whole life and was no stranger to people reacting badly to his outbursts, and considering how he had been treated in that school, he expected them to act this way. What he didn’t expect was Liu becoming slightly more distant to him after the event. Liu had always tried to help him to the best of his ability whenever he snapped, but now he seemed uncomfortable when near Jeff and didn’t speak to him as often. Jeff soon figured out Liu had made some friends at their school, and they convinced him that Jeff was dangerous and a bad influence. Jeff felt betrayed and he confronted Liu about it. Liu explained to him that he was creeped out by the expression Jeff had when beating Randy up, that he looked almost like he was enjoying it. Jeff was shocked that his own brother would accuse him of finding joy in hurting others, getting more and more upset by the second until he was yelling at Liu. It wasn’t until he almost punched him in the face that he realised how angry and distressed he was, not just at Liu, but at everything. His whole life had plummeted since he moved. He apologised to his brother and decided to go take a walk to calm himself down.

He liked walking through the forest because it was always calm and there weren’t any people around, so he could be alone and not have to worry about what others thought of him. His favorite route was one that led him to a small river, since the noise of the water running was calming to him. He sat down on the riverside and stared as small fish made their way through the water. After a few minutes, he heard a noise coming from between the trees. He turned around and saw Randy, Keith and Troy. Randy had a nasal splint. Jeff immediately got up and took a defensive stance, but he knew he was surrounded, outnumbered and definitely unprepared for a fight. However, the trio wasn’t there to fight. Troy reached into his backpack and took out a bottle of vodka and threw it at Jeff, smashing it against him. He was incredibly confused until he saw the object Randy had just pulled out of his pocket. A lighter. He lit it and threw it at Jeff, making him catch fire. Jeff, shocked and in pain, was bright enough to jump into the river, preventing him from getting seriously hurt, but his face had been disfigured. By the time the shock had worn off and he looked up, no one was there.

He slowly walked to his house, mind blank except for the consuming rage he felt towards anybody who had ever hurt him. As he passed by a house, he caught a glimpse of his reflection in a window. He turned to look at himself, his face was seared and blistered. A thought popped into his mind. He reached down and grabbed his pocket knife, snapped it open and brought it to the corner of his lips, carving a massive smile on his cheek, and then did the same on the other side. As he stared at the new him, he felt happy for what felt like the first time since he stepped foot in this god forsaken town. The only thought in his head was how beautiful he looked. He decided to cut his eyelids off as well so he could see himself without needing to blink. With a newfound energy and a plan for what to do, he finished the trek to his house.

When he entered the living room, his father, who was watching the TV, immediately stiffened, wide-eyed. Before he could say anything, Jeff asked him if he thought he was beautiful. His father, however, stayed silent, too shocked to muster a reply, much less fight back when his own son stabbed him in the chest. Jeff’s mom was in her and her husband’s room, folding the laundry. She was about to tell him how relieved she was that he was back, when she saw his face. She screamed and dropped the shirt she was holding as he tackled her and slit her throat. He was done with that place, now he needed to find the three who ruined his life.

It didn’t take long for him to find them, out on the street chatting. They seemed to be regretting setting him on fire. That didn’t stop Jeff tho, it was too late for mercy. The three of them were found dead the next day, wounds littering their bodies. Jeff had satiated his hunger for revenge but he was still bloodthirsty, so he turned his attention to innocent people who had never hurt him. That’s how he became the most dangerous killer in the history of the town.

As I said, this is kind of a real story. Some details are wrong, of course, cuz we don’t know everything about Jeff’s life, but that’s the broad strokes of what happened. Tons of people died and then, one day, all disappearances and sightings of Jeff stopped. Nobody knows what happened to him, the police never caught him, so he probably just died from some disease or something like that. His body was never found though, so we don’t know if he’s actually dead or not, but everyone thinks he is. My town has more weird stories like that, so if you want me to tell more, I’ll do it!

Amerus prompt

Medieval omegaverse au. Allen(alpha) wants his omega son Alfred to marry, but Alfred only agrees to marry the one who beats him in many competitions, but because of Alfred's superpower, no one can beat him and never will. Alfred doesn't need any alphas, he fucks his omega friend Ivan. Maybe they'll have a secret wedding.

Alfred and Ivan are representatives of the furry community. Fursona Alfred is a grizzly, and Fursona Ivan is a polar bear. They met at a gay furry party and had sex in fursuits.

Omegaverse au. Alfred and Ivan are students at a school that is only for alphas. They have secrets, Ivan is actually an omega, Alfred is not a simple alpha but an enigma.

Omegaverse au. Alfred(alpha), Matthew(alpha) and his boyfriend Arthur(omega) go on vacation to the jungle, another group of alphas went there with one prostitute for all - Ivan(omega) . They all get into an adventure, something like Indiana Jones on the minimum wage, what exactly happened to them you can think of yourself. In general, Ivan gets into trouble, everyone refused to save the prostitute, except for Alfred, Ivan falls in love with him and offers to sleep, he won’t take money from him, Alfred refuses and advises him to stop doing this. A year or two passes (I can’t decide) and by chance Alfred meets Ivan on the street, who was never able to leave prostitution. Alfred decides to take Ivan for himself, help him find a normal job and of course they will have a love relationship.

Office au. Ivan and Alfred are friends, and now Alfred told his secret, his dick has not risen for a long time. Ivan offered to give a blowjob (of course, in a friendly way) suddenly the member will rise and the member really got up. Ivan even allowed himself to be fucked as a reward for the fact that Alfred burst into tears of happiness.

Ice dragoness Natalya kidnaps Prince Ivan, knight Alfred saves him.

The beast and beast au. The witch Natalya fell in love with Prince Ivan, but he is not interested in women because he is gay, for this she turns him into a beast, the spell will be lifted if he has mutual love with a girl and not with a guy. Then Natalya sticks to Prince Alfred, he also turns out to be gay and she turns him into a beast, the method of removing the curse is the same. Beasts intersect, love happens, the spell is of course not removed, but they don’t care anymore, because you can love each other in the form of furry cats.

Omegaverse au. Ivan is an underage omega prostitute who has a child from a client. Alfred is an underage alpha from a prosperous family who pulls Ivan out of prostitution.

Ivan is a sinner who has sunk to the very bottom. Alcohol, smoking, sells his ass for drugs, and before all this, he stalkered for his ex-boyfriend - Tolys, even a badge was allocated so that he would not approach him even 50 meters away, but this did not stop Ivan. But now he has lagged behind Tolys and regrets the past. Alfred is an angel who wants to do something heroic, for example, to put some kind of sinner on a bright path, and Ivan is the first to come across.

Fantasy omegaverse au. Ivan the omega in heat, who was presented as a gift to the magical alpha eagle Alfred. Now Ivan is his wife.

Omegaverse au. Alfred is the top!omega who is unlucky in love. Omega guys left him because Alfred is not alpha, you can’t give birth to a child from him. Alphas also abandoned him because they were tired of constantly being the bottom. Somehow he met with beta!Ivan and now they became a couple.

Alfred gets himself a huskyboy Ivan, a troublesome dog that everyone refuses, but Alfred manages to tame him.There is no logic in this universe, just a stupid wanker. You can buy a animalboy(girl) and sleep with him and this will not be considered bestiality.

Omegavers au. Ivan is a modern (well, that is, as modern, the setting is similar to our fifties and sixties) omega through a portal that got back in time to the local dark ages. Meets Alfred(alpha), they marry. After some time, they find a portal and travel to the present.
