Simon who has never fallen in love before, so when he starts catching feelings for you he thinks he's sick. He was perfectly fine a few months ago, there was nothing amiss, even now he can't exactly pinpoint when his heart started palpatating or his palms started sweating. he was never uncomfortable in his own skin, but this felt just like that! he was fidgety, his throat went dry, his face was flaring up as if he had a fever. it always happened randomly, the only common denominator? you. It was crazy! you and Simon have been on the same task force for about four years now, he was doing just fine before. slowly befriending you and keeping a civil relationship with you. He thinks it could be an allergic reaction? but why wouldn't it flare up in the previous years. It just made no sense. Simon almost drove himself crazy trying to figure it out. Even know, he was sitting in the lounge area with his elbows on his knees, face concentrated in deep thought. It was Johnny who found him trying to burn a hole through the wall with his intense gaze. ' LT? you doin' okay there?' The sudden question ripped Simon away from his thoughts. He stared at Johnny for a few minutes, the latter slowly becoming increasingly more nervous as the silence stretched between them. 'alrighty then i'll leave ya to it' ' Johnny wait' even Simon was confused with his behaviour, but maybe an outside perspective is what he needed. 'i have an...affliction' Johnny took a seat and listened to his lieutenant start explaining the situation. slowly, the gears in his mind clicked. Simon kept on rambling about how his mind goes blank, his core temperature keeps rising, the clammy palms, the shaky voice and the sudden shyness not making sense to him. Johnny just laughs, hard. ' holy hell Ghost ya in love?' the question felt like a slap in the face. Simon looked at his sargeant in disbelief, almost offended by the question. Johnny just kept smiling and asked Simon a simple question. ' when do these uh, symptoms make themselves known LT?' So Simon tells him about how he thinks he might be allergic to you, or at least some perfume or body wash you use. Johnny listens and keeps nodding, a smile never leaving his face. ' You know Ghost? This might actually be an allergy. You should talk to her and ask her about it, maybe she has more answers?' Oh Johnny was going to enjoy seeing how this would turn out.

Can I request the "I think we should start dating" "... weren't we dating already?" scenario with bachelors of your choice? (and elliot !!)
Sure thing, dear anon 😊 Enjoy! 🫰💕
**********************************************
Shane:
Finally, a well-deserved lunch break after unloading those endless stupid boxes of Joja groceries! Shane's back is already aching from all the heavy lifting.... And the best part of this break is that the Farmer, with whom the chicken lover has been together for half a year, came to visit him. They just wanted to tell him something important, but Shane couldn't get rid of the tender thoughts of the fact that he found a person who loved him - him, some loser Joja company loader!
"Shane, I've been meaning to tell you for a long time... I really like you. A lot. Like not just as a friend, but more than that." Farmer's voice trembled slightly, they were clearly very nervous.
"And I thought... I want... You... Do you want us to become something more than friends?" Shane's goofy smile quickly slid away, and his face expressed shock. The Farmer became even more nervous, mistaking it for a bad reaction and had already started to apologize, but Shane interrupted them:
"All this fucking time.... we weren't together?!" Now it was Farmer's turn to be completely shocked.
Realizing the situation, both of them laughed almost to the point of stomach ache. "Yoba have mercy, you're such a idiot," said Farmer without anger.
"You're no better, dumbass!" smiling Shane replied back at them. Two idiots in love, what a couple they are. But Shane felt even warmer in his heart, realizing how lucky he is...
Elliott:
Cool sea breeze that refreshes in the summer heat, calm azure sea with a beautiful view of the sunset... Elliott stood on the sandy shore with Farmer, admiring the sunset, and no words can convey how happy the gallant writer felt with the man he loved. Together with them.
Farmer immediately felt Elliott's gaze on the themself, and turned to face him, bestowing a soft smile.
"I really appreciate spending time with you Elliott. You have no idea how much it means to me. I... I like you a lot." Farmer moved closer to the writer, resting their head gently on his shoulder. Elliott didn't dare move, didn't dare ruin this beautiful, sacred moment for the two of them. Farmer continued:
"I've been thinking about this for a long time, and... I think we should date. As a couple, not just as friends..." Farmer was unable to continue as Elliott choked on air and began coughing heavily, trying to regain consciousness. "What happened? Did you get a bug in your mouth?"
Elliott was finally able to cough up and speak:
"Forgive me, my dear, for my bluntness, but... haven't we been a couple for four months now?"
By the surprised look on Farmer's face, Elliott immediately had an answer to the question.
"What a fool I am! Yoba! Forgive me Farmer, I thought we.... Oh my, this is- Have I misspoken in the past? I'm an idiot! How could I not ask you about that? Or did I asked?" While Elliott was dramatically berating himself, standing in a theatrical pose, Farmer grabbed his hand and pulled him in for a kiss. The writer quickly calmed down, and laughed at the thought that this would make a very comical and romantic story for his autobiography.
Sam:
Sam ran around his room, looking for his best (or at least clean) T-shirt and favorite jeans. A little combing of hair near the mirror, a little odicolone perfume - and the young guitarist was ready for another date with his dearest Farmer! Oh, man, Sam forgot Farmer's favorite sweets. Okay, got it. Now he's ready for the date!
As always, they're waiting for Sam under the tree outside his house. And, as always, they hold a bouquet of beautiful roses for him, Sam's favorite flowers (and which he's not allergic to). This time the color of the roses is white, but the musician didn't pay too much attention to that, because his thoughts were completely focused on Farmer's smile.
"Hey Sam. I've been thinking about how to prepare a speech for a long time, but I was afraid of getting nervous and saying the wrong thing, so..." Farmer took a deep breath. "So... here. For you."
They handed him a bouquet. "I'd like for us to date and become more than friends.... If you agree, of course."
Sam.exe stopped working. Information processing error. Rebooting... Rebooting...
"Wait, weren't we a couple?"
"We... were a couple?" Unsurely, Farmer asked. Now their minds were beginning to reset from the discrepancy of information in their head as well. It took half a minute before it finally dawned on Sam what had happened.
"You gave me bouquets of my favorite flowers almost every day!" exclaimed Sam with a laugh in his voice.
"But those were friendly bouquets!" Farmer tried to justify themself, "this one is different!"
"How is this one any different then, huh?" Sam is already imagining how he's going to tell Sebastian and Abigail that it turns out he and Farmer weren't a couple before.
"That bouquet of white roses! Plus it's got little plastic hearts that say 'be mine' and 'I love you'. So don't even-" Farmer crossed their arms, feeling their cheeks redden from the awkward situation. But seeing the soft, loving look in Sam's eyes, whose cheeks were also red as a tomato, Farmer rushed to the musician with hugs and kisses, accidentally slightly denting the flowers.

◌ೆ୧ ͢YOUR MAIL HAS BEEN DELIEVERED ♡
𓈒⠀⠀⁺⠀𝜗 crucifiedkiss ╱ finnverse x gn! reader 𝜚
ꨄ︎ hcs ++ drbls woa finnverse ⏤ ﹙glue song﹚ 🪽 ˖ ׁ
ಲ ͏ㅤ ׅㅤㅤcw: fluff ++ light angst, accidentally dialouge heavy, headcanons (hcs) && drabbles (drbls), ways of affection (woa <- love languages), mentioned byler :P, seasons not specified (?), LONG !!! (i had 22 lock IN), mentions of mileven (not hating !! some ppl just rlly hate that ship 😓), liking someone whilst already dating someone else ++ hints at breaking up, alcohol ++ drugs, implications of abuse, bad parenting, ooc ???, etc. .. overall cute tho !!ㅤ✿𝅼
( 。>﹏<) "not all the characters finn has acted as (ofc) !!! only did the ones that r especially popular or more known ^^ !!! only ft. mike wheeler and boris pavlikovsky cause im eepy (ITS 2AM ???) !! enjoy ml 🫂 this took FOREVSS RAHHH !!!" ⏤ c.k. と
𝜗୧ ּ݂⠀💌 mike wheelers way of affection ﹗
⏤ BEFORE DATING HIM: ok so. u know how in st when mike rlly starts to realize his feelings for will (byler❗), how he can barely even show physical affection ?? definitely not physical affection cause of that😓 its just cause he is kinda jittery/nervous, he will get better i swear !!! looking at the show, mike loves giving gifts to eleven, so im alright to say his way of affection is gifts :3 probably gives u random things, but mainly just the ordinary things u would give someone that r romantic such as flowers, chocolates (IF UR ALLERGIC IM SO SORRY !!! HE WOULD PROBABLY GIVE U A SUBSTITUTE FOR IT LIKE UR FAVORITE CANDY/CANDIES OR WHTVR U PREFER ML !! ^_^ CAN PPL BE ALLERGIC TO FLOWERS ?? IF ALLERGIC TO FLOWERS THINK OF IT AS SMTH ELSE IM SO SORRY AGAIN RAHHHH😓), etc. !! would be rlly shy abt it, especially because ur not even dating him yet .. swears on his LIFE that the gifts r platonic. yeah right ... just friends get u ur favorite food and flowers that smell like hes sprayed perfume of sorts onto them for them to smell even better then normally .. ur painfully obvious micheal wheeler !!! most sweaty palms ??? lowkey gross but pls forgive him!
mike stood stiff infront of you, lopsided smile on his lips with his arms extended out, in his hands holding out your favorite flowers that were all bundled together and neatly tied with a little ribbon, a small tag on it saying where its from that he mustve forgotten to rip off. hes heard you mention your favorite type before, so why not get you some? he stared intently at your reaction, looking for any type of disgust or discomfort in your eyes, analyzing to the point it couldve came off as creepy, but he didnt want his gift to be hated or something! after much awkward silence that felt like hours—realistically being less then a minute, but he was impatient—, he noticed you return a more heartfelt smile that made his stomach churn with a feeling he just couldnt describe. you grabbed the flowers from his sweaty palms that left the plants green slightly moist. he chuckled, quickly returning his arms back to his side—not before wiping his hands on his jeans to try to wipe away the gross sweat that had gathered just at the thought of you.
your smile was fond. it made him feel so sickly.
"thank you," he heard you say, leaving him to nod before mumbling out hastily that he needed to be somewhere, using the excuse of needing to see eleven ... right. eleven. his beloved girlfriend. yep. he offered a small wave goodbye before speeding off, mentally scolding himself. why did he get you flowers?? do people give friends flowers that smelt ever-so nicely?? his head spun with thoughts but he pushed them away. he needed to go see eleven ...
⏤ DURING DATING HIM: physical touch, words of affirmation, and still gift giving because yippee :3 in st, he is often near eleven and close to her (although i think eleven often ensues the physical touch first, i would say this still counts !), and words of affirmation just because he is a silly boy. showing love ?? through words ?? SIGN HIM UP !!! praise of any sorts is amazing. loves complimenting u ^_^ gift giving is obvious of course :) i think he eventually kinda fell out of giving gifts, but still does it more to remind u of when he used to be a big baby (pre-dating) or just does it for u to be happy if u rlly wish to want gifts (finds out how to get that money somehow ..) :) ur his everything tbh😞 pls i love him😭
mike grinned softly, looking at the first pair of flowers he had ever gotten you before you two started dating, the tag he had left on it originally now taken off thankfully. it was in a gorgeous vase that was a mix of blue, his favorite color, and your favorite color. they had grown beautifully with the proper care. he let his eyes gaze away from the pot of flowers, sunshine rays shining brightly onto them, making eye contact with you. his eyes sparkled with joy and crinkled due to his smile, black hair a little frizzed but overall handsome on him, and his skin was as beautifully pale as ever– if that was a compliment.
"you kept them?" he questioned quietly, not wanting to break the adoring peace between you and him.
"why wouldnt i have?" you responded back, earning a playful eye roll from him before getting abruptly pulled to his side, or atleast, more than you already were. his hand rested comfortably over the fabric of your clothing, just on the mid-torso to be respectful. he giggled, giving your body a loving squeeze.
"love you, pretty," he said as charmingly as possible– of course it was as charming as he wouldve wanted, why wouldnt it have been?
𝜗୧ ּ݂⠀💌 boris pavlikovskys way of affection ﹗
⏤ BEFORE DATING HIM: physical touch and emotional (the idea that people express and receive love in different ways, and that supporting a partner through difficult times is an important part of love/connecting with your loved one during tough times when they need your emotional support and resilience. aligning with this love language means that you are ready to be supportive of your partner's emotions during difficult times, and expect them to do the same for you) obviously. why wouldnt it be ??? do u see how touchy he is with theo😭 ??? and emotional because, like, have u SEEN how his father is ??? almost sobbed watching that one scene goodbye. my sweet lil thing :(( although emotional is a least known type of way to show affection, i think its rlly interesting !! i was gonna say words of affirmation aswell but like. this is BORIS we r talking about😓 maybe calls u nicknames in different languages and stuff but wont ever rlly praise u or anything like that (srry guys❗)
boris was a troublemaker, of course. that bit was obvious– he was probably on drunk and high everyday to be honest. but falling in love? with theo, he was already kinda in love with him. it made him sick to his stomach. loving was never really his.. thing. liking one person was enough, but two?? he was being driven into insanity at this point trying to choose who he... 'truly loved' or whatever fairytales say. he never really read books, how would he know? each night after he either left yours or theos house or after the two of you left, he was left grumbling to himself in the dead silence of his house. was loving someone really this hard? this is so tedious! and dumb!
today was just another day, drinking vodka straight from the bottle at your house, sat up at the front of your mattress, theo at his side whilst you were tidying up your room– not something you did often. having guests over though, your parental guardian had insisted to clean your room. boris stared blankly at you as he took the vodka away from his mouth, glancing over at theo for a second and handing the alcohol to him before looking back at you. he caught the small smile of theos mouth just before turning away ... that dumb smile.
"just sit down. thought you dislike cleaning?" boris questioned in that broken english. he was still learning.
"i do but im forced to clean it each time you guys come over," you huffed.
boris hummed, not even giving you a second to respond before you were yanked to sit next to him, bed leaning down at the new weight on it. you side eyed him for a moment, feeling his hand linger on your wrist he had originally pulled you by before letting you go, instead throwing his arm around your shoulder and pulling you close, keeping it touchy as always. you narrowed your eyes at him for a moment before just shrugging. you supposed you could just clean it later.
"alright, alright. i will join you and 'potter'." you sassily remarked. boris rolled his eyes, looking over at theo who had placed the vodka down by now. he stared for a moment before just pulling him close aswell, two of his favorite people by his side.
⏤ can u guys guess whether or not i rlly like boris by how long i wrote his. and my favorite trope. RAHHH I LOVE WRITING THIS SM ??? ALSO i couldnt rlly fit the emotional love language in there so like☹ anyways um | DURING DATING HIM: i think it would be the same. physical touch and emotional. i feel he rlly isnt to like, open about exploring, so he just sticks with what he likes and doesnt experient at all😭 the only thing he experiments with is different alcohols to find his next favorite lowkey !!! i feel as time passes and now actually dating u, how touchy he is just gets worse ... be careful guys he is the type to absolutely GRIP on you when cuddling or smth similar ^_^"
bruises. literally everywhere. boris was a cuddly man, that was a given, but he really did love just digging his fingers into your skin to the point it gave literal MARKS. you didnt mind to much, thinking it was sweet. he had good intentions of course!! arms wrapped around your waist, you were tightly pressed against boris' body, somehow managing to be comfortable. sure, you were gonna just get even more marks, but it was a casual thing by now. plus, atleast boris was happy– alot happier than before, thats for sure. previously, he and his father had a little ... squabble, lets say.
"bad parenting." boris had mumbled, breaking the silence.
you were going to say huh before your mouth became a 'O' in realization that he was talking about his father. you were quick to agree, nodding your head. he truly was a horrible father.
"dont worry about it, boris. its in the past," you tried reassuring.
past as in the last 20 minutes, but you still tried helping.
you only heard him sigh, mumbling something in russian under his breath—likely about him hating his dad or something—before pulling you closer, if even possible. seemed you would be here for a while as perusal as he practically would hold you captive– you werent really complaining though. he was rather warm for a guy so sickly looking.

Whumptober Day 29: Scented Candle
Day 29! This one was definitely one that I had to bend a little bit, but I still think I did a good job given how clunky the prompt can be. And I think I got some decent angst out of it but I'll let you all be the judge of that!
Taglist: @splinnters @abigailxoxo @tornoleander @mondothebombo @ghostwalloper @toastingpencils37 @lightning-chicken
Words: 2.1k
The smell was the first thing that Jay noticed when he stepped into the store.
It was overwhelming, and Jay didn’t know if that was because of his sharper senses or if it really was just that strong. No one else seemed to be affected by it, so he kept his mouth shut and continued walking into the Bath and Body Works, hand in hand with Nya.
Nya was taking a big risk by going in here with her perfume allergy, but she thought that it was worth it to try and get some decent-smelling candles. They finally had an actual building for a house for the first time in years, and everyone was sick of smelling Wu’s incense all the time, so the Ninja collectively put their foot down and decided to get some stuff to try and make Yang’s Temple feel more like a home rather than a smelly church.
“What do you think?” she asked, holding up a pink strawberry candle. Jay sniffed, grimacing, and she was quick to put it back down. “Yeah, me neither. Let’s try some of these ones.”
“Are you sure? I thought you liked strawberries.”
“I do, but you need to like it too with how much time you’re going to be spending in my room.”
Blushing, Jay continued to follow her, watching as she skimmed through all of the fruity flavors that they had in stock. He knew that they were her favorite even if he couldn’t stand most of their smells, but they finally found an apple one that they could agree on. She plopped it into the basket, and finally it was time to look at all the smells that Jay would love.
He had been doing his damndest to stay on the side of the store away from all of the woody smells. Nya knew why, and he knew why, but the others didn’t. Cole kept shooting him weird looks over his shoulder, because as far as he knew, Jay still adored the smells of the outdoors.
Not anymore.
There was a small graham cracker candle that smelled heavenly, and Jay was quick to snatch it up and show it to Nya. It reminded him of the smores that he would make with his pa when he was little, the smoke curling into the sky as he burnt the hell out of the marshmallow because tha was the only way to eat a true smore. Maybe if he found a marshmallow candle and something chocolatey he would be able to make the ultimate smores candle.
“Honey, they have a smores candle right here,” Nya chuckled, holding it up.
“But then it’s not special,” Jay insisted, clutching the graham cracker candle to his chest as he scanned through the shelves, “and we need it to be special. Now help me find a marshmallow one.”
“If you say so.”
Cole eventually walked over to help, and Jay smelled a very vague whiff of perfume around his brother. Pushing Nya behind him in panic, Jay fixed Cole with a stern glare. “Dude!”
“What?”
“Perfume? Seriously? Nya is allergic!”
Rolling his eyes, the earth ninja held up his wrist. “Relax, Jay, it’s unscented.”
“Unscented my ass! I could smell you coming from three aisles over!”
Nya leaned around Jay and sniffed at Cole’s wrist, relaxing when it didn’t trigger any reaction. It actually smelled kinda nice. “I think your nose is too sensitive, it’s fine.”
Jay grumbled as they continued looking through the store stock; he had already come far too close to losing her permanently, so of course he was still going to be a bit overprotective. Anxiety buzzed in his chest, making its way up his hands and starting to make him shake. He swiftly put the candles down, not willing to pay for anything that he might drop. Maybe he was the one who shouldn’t be around perfume anymore.
Apparently, having vague thoughts about his girlfriend dying was enough to trigger memories of everything else.
Feeling his throat start to close up, Jay grabbed at Nya’s hand with a tight grip. He needed to get out of here. There were too many smells and too many colors and too much everything. “Nya—”
“Hey, Jay!” Kai exclaimed, and something was shoved under Jay’s nose. “Smell this one!”
Out of instinct Jay took a sniff, and he immediately gagged.
Sandalwood.
All of Nadakhan’s shit smelled like sandalwood.
The room smelled like sandalwood, and so did his stuff, and so did he—
Cole tried to catch him as Jay collapsed onto the ground, throwing himself backwards in an effort to get as far away from the candle as possible. Even just the smallest graze of his brother’s hands made Jay reel away, and there was the sound of glass shattering as he pulled himself up on one of the shelves. There was a stinging pain in his shin but he ignored it, also ignoring the smear of red along the floor as he finally figured his legs out and started making for the exit. Only the barest bit of self-restraint kept him from sprinting out of there like a madman, but he still looked mighty suspicious from his unsteady gait and the blood flowing down from his scraped knee. Hopefully everyone would just think he was some drunk looking for a place to sleep off the alcohol instead of one of the famed ninja breaking down.
No one else tried to stop him, but he could faintly hear them calling his name through the rush of blood in his ears. Rushing out of the store, Jay quickly made himself scarce in the crowd; for as loud as he could be, he always knew how to hide when he didn’t want to be found.
There were too many people. It was getting harder and harder to take a breath as he was jostled on both sides, and Jay knew that he was going to have to pull over in a minute. Before, the mall had never bothered him, and it even was a place that Jay was excited to go and visit. Malls never existed near the Sea of Sands, and seeing so many stores gathered in one place threw him for a loop when he visited for the first time as a small thirteen-year-old.
But what once felt like a lavish palace now felt like a prison.
There was a gap in the wall and Jay ducked into it, noticing that it was a small hallway leading to the bathrooms. At the end of the hall was an unlocked family restroom, and Jay could only hope and pray that nobody would need it for the next little bit because he definitely was not going to break down in a men’s public restroom if he could help it.
Lock clicking shut behind him, Jay curled on the floor with his cheek to the cool tile, letting it ground him as he did his best to ignore whatever thoughts he had about the hygiene in this place. Blood was dripping down his leg, and he cringed away from the feeling of it soaking into his sock. His hands wouldn’t stop shaking, no matter how hard he clenched them into fists.
“You’re okay,” he whispered to himself, getting up off the floor and turning on the sink. He cupped his hands and splashed the cold water on his face, “you’re okay. Just need to breathe.”
He kept looking in the mirror, checking if anything was behind him even though he knew that he locked the door. Nadakhan didn’t need to use doors.
The smell of sandalwood was still clogging his nose, and Jay hurriedly reached for the small container of hand soap. Unscrewing the top, he shoved it under his nose and took a deep breath, trying to let the overwhelming smell of mint replace the offending smell so he could finally start to calm down.
Except the mint wasn’t doing shit.
He threw the bottle on the counter in frustration, and could only watch as it started spilling all over the counter. Hastily trying to clean it up, Jay kept exhaling forcefully through his nose to try and clear it, but nothing was working. Nothing was getting rid of it.
Pathetic. A famed hero of Ninjago who had faced down countless enemies, saved the world no less than five times, brought down to his knees by a fucking candle? Not just to his knees, but in a filthy public restroom in the middle of the Ninjago City Mall where anyone could come walking up and they would hear him crying.
Was he crying?
Yeah, he was crying, reaching up and feeling the tears on his cheeks. Jay grabbed a paper towel and wiped his face off, even though he knew that they would be replaced only a moment later. Wetting another paper towel under the sink, he figured it was finally time to try and clean out the cut on his shin.
Or multiple cuts, he realized as he looked down, and the familiar sight of blood staining his leg made him nauseous. Sitting down on his rear, Jay took a closer look, heart sinking when he realized that some of the glass shards were still in his leg. No wonder it was hurting so badly, but now that meant that he had to actually take the shards out.
Yippee.
Puting the paper towel back up on the counter, Jay reached for the first shard with a trembling hand. Tugging it out as gently as he could, he flinched from the fresh blood that flowed from the wound, and he dropped the shard on the floor from his surprise. There was too much blood and it was getting on his hands and it was dark and red and everywhere and First Master he couldn’t do this. He couldn’t do this.
A knock at the bathroom door. “Jay?”
“Nya?” Of course it was her, it was just Nya, not Nadakhan or his brothers or a stranger or anyone else to be worried about. “I’m in here.”
“I know, I followed your trail,” Nya said, and Jay hated how awful it made him feel to hear that civillians may have had to see his bloody trail left on the ground. Children may have had to see it. “Can I come in?”
Jay took a deep breath, pushing down his anxiety and getting up. “Yeah, hold on a sec.”
Flipping the lock over, Nya gave him a minute to back away from the door before opening it and making her way inside. She locked it behind her, which Jay was grateful for, and she knelt down next to where he had plopped down onto the floor. Caressing his cheek, she pecked him on the lips, and Jay felt the scent of vanilla wash over him; she must’ve put some on before coming to find him.
He buried his face in her hair when she leaned in for a hug, and Nya gently pressed her hand against the nape of his neck. “You okay?”
And he really wanted to lie, but he couldn’t find the energy to. “No.”
“What’s wrong?” Nya asked, and Jay tightened his hold around her. She was here, and she was breathing, and he was breathing, and that was everything that he could’ve asked for.
“There’s glass in my leg,” Jay said, swallowing thickly, “and I think I’m going to cry. I-Is that okay?”
“Of course it is,” Nya reassured, playing with the baby hairs on the nape of his neck. Her hands were cool against his skin, and Jay craned his head forward to give her more access. “I’ll take care of the glass, but it’s definitely going to sting. Just tell me if I need to stop, alright?”
Jay nodded, and he tried to keep as still as possible as Nya slipped on her pair of spare rubber gloves. All of them always carried some on their persons, just in case anything were to happen out in public; you never know what sort of bodily fluids you would have to touch that day, and you did a lot of that in their line of work. He hid his face in the crook of her neck as she started pulling the shards out, quick and efficient but still gentle. Just like her.
Nya was humming some random tune that Jay picked up, and the sound was comforting to him in a way that the whirring of the air vents and the mall chatter outside never could be. The panic didn’t quite subside, and he doubted that it would until they finally made it home, but this? This was okay. He could deal with this.
“Thanks, Nya.”
“Don’t mention it. Next time though, tell me you need to leave before running out on me, okay?”
“No promises.”

helllllloooooooo ad i have some questions about your wips!!! will you please ramble a little about (cut down at the garden’s gate) and (remember me to one who lives there) 👀 if there are snippets to share i will eat them up ���♀️
Hiiiii Rowan thank you so much!! I’ll take any excuse (and somehow you picked the two I’ve had the most brainrot about lately, haha!) I'll put this under a 'read more' because it's long...
cut down at the garden’s gate
Hawke spares Anders and runs away with a Bethany who was sent to the Circle; years later they end up passing through Starkhaven because with a burned-down Circle and no templars, it's looking like a solid option
Sebastian had so much potential for part of the base game, like he got sent to the Chantry for being too slutty…. Hawke is sugar daddy to a literal prince, there's so much there
But mainly, I love how he's so driven by revenge when you wouldn't expect it, and it raises a lot of questions I love: how much of his devotion to the Chantry comes from real faith and how much is wanting a family or wanting a purpose? How much is hiding from his past? I love the conflicting beliefs he holds and how leaving the Chantry would let him see all its flaws but he gets thrown into ruling instead
I also love the idea of Fenris coming with him to Starkhaven but that's an idea for another day...
Lots of threads here, including but not limited to: the Hawke sibling relationship, whether Hawke and Sebastian could ever commit fully to each other in Kirkwall, how Starkhaven is a new beginning and the dynamics have shifted, their shared grief over losing family... and also a political marriage
Hawke comes by for the morning service every time she wants his company on a mission: when she can't take mages, when she has to get in the thick of the fight, anytime she craves another archer at her back. She has a keen trust in anyone who can view a battle from a distance and size up the opponents by her terms. Sometimes it feels like she brings him just to see if he’ll bite when she makes a decision, to see his reaction. It has become lovelier to indulge her impulses than to practice patience. She sits in the third row on the right, her hair swooping into her eyes and one foot tapping against the floor, her knee bouncing up and down out of rhythm with the Chant. Like an equal exchange, after, she comes to him with her request, her eyes tinged with pink from the perfumed air. I’m allergic, she says when he asks why she does not attend more often, her red mouth set in a lovely smirk. She is messy and imperfect, and he sees Andraste in her face and in her lies. It is no surprise that when he closes his eyes, he sees Hawke, perched on his knee when he takes the throne, panting into his ear while he undoes her slowly; Hawke under him in the bed of the lord’s chamber, that secret which lies behind the tall door deep in her family estate; Hawke, rocking against his mouth as he kneels between her legs, all these profane thoughts wind through his head as he lies in his narrow cot in the chantry basement.
remember me to one who lives there
I think this is one of the first things I started writing for DA and I really want to come back to it one day!
I’m obsessed with impossible tasks and folklore lol, especially ones that involve hidden identities/second chances—so I took the title from "Scarborough Fair" and all those strange and impossible tasks the singer asks for!
I really deviated from my "canon" for this one; the main idea is that Ashna drank from the Well of Sorrows and the Divine reinstated the Circles, so she's made a series of bargains for her freedom and left room for one person to undo them and find her
I also just love all the ambiguity around the Well and how it might compel someone to make all these strange decisions; that idea of its constant whispering is so haunting
Cullen takes an “extended leave” from the Inquisition to find her, but also to understand the choices he must make for the world he wants
The woman is quiet as she thinks, and eventually, she offers him a place in the kitchen, on a makeshift bedroll laid out on the thatched floor. He lies against the firm ground, wondering about the look in the woman’s eyes, the way she stuttered for once when choosing a room for him. As if she was unused to company, and she is set out of the way in the outskirts of this village, and maybe she hasn’t had a visitor in too long. And then he gets back to remembering, or trying to. He remembers being happy, remembers mornings spent in bed with his wife, his wife, in his arms. Remembers nights of travel and low conversations and nightmares, of anything but sleep. There was always a lightness that he is beginning to forget. If he were better—in general, really, but better at accepting what he cannot change—it might have been enough to have loved and been loved once, no matter the ending. Cullen used to consider himself properly sacrificial and duty-bound. Only recently did he allow himself to grow greedy, and now, the memory of her will never be enough. He married her; they were going to have children, perhaps, at least a dog, and gather wrinkles and aches and a full lifetime of memories. He wants it all still; sometimes, he feels he is nothing but wanting. “You’re hurting me, Cullen,” she said absently. Half-mad with panic, he dropped her hand like it burned. “We will figure this out,” she said calmly. He didn’t understand it, but he should have. She’d always had the same reaction to bad news—thinking two steps ahead, a foot out the door at even the slightest tug of the thread, gone by the time the rest began to unravel. Two mornings later, he woke in an empty bed.
Thanks again bestie!!! 👯♀️ 💕

steve getting his crack waxed. (Steve claims it’s for bucky—it’s really for himself)
Aw, hell yeah.
*grumbles to myself* you said you wouldn't write on Tumblr during school and do your homework, you said you wouldn't take requests, well, before you said that you should've remembered that you're a liar and horny bastard.
That being said, I may have gone overboard here because... this struck something in me I guess:
Big!sub!Steve, feminization, rimming, & masturbation below the cut. With a side of waxing, of course ;)
I'm thinking the Steve who does this - getting himself waxed all over - is a pretty, clean shaven, fresh-faced, big sub Steve.
Reguarly he gets a lot of his body waxed - legs and chest/torso at least - ('cause the serum ensures that his body hair grows back too fast for shaving to feel worth it) seeing as he likes how it feels and how it looks to be completely bare. Plus in addition to his own feelings on it, Bucky's lips tracing down his chest, whispering about how fucking sexy his pretty pink, spreading flush is without the shadow of his body hair, is always a good motivator. As is the feather light touch of his fingertips over his completely smooth skin, sending shivers through his core, fanning the flames of his arousal. Bucky is really good at... convincing Steve into things. His reactions make Steve's head spin and usually also leave him orgasming hard enough to black out.
But either way, the first time Steve trusts someone to wax his crack as well as his balls and pubic hair around his cock too, it's originally for Bucky.
It's supposed to be a surprise, like the first time Steve fully waxed his legs and Bucky laid him out on their bed in payment. Getting him onto his back to touch and mouth and nip and lick at his smooth skin, from his ankles all the way up to his sensitive inner thighs, until Steve couldn't stop himself from tumbling over the edge, entirely untouched, his cock leaking wetly against his heaving stomach. Then when the next time he got waxed he had his chest done too... the second he was home, changing out of his clothes to shower and wash any wax remnants off himself, Bucky had found him. And then had him white-knuckling it on the sheets in no time, touching him all over, overwhelming him, but starting with a dangerous purr, "all smooth, huh, baby?"
And, yeah... Steve craves to hear that surprised and undeniably turned on tone again. Normally it's Bucky who surprises him, swaggering into their home like it's 1940 all over again and he's just slid out of a dance hall, smellin' like the last dregs of his cologne, cigarette smoke, whiskey, and some dames sweet perfume all up his collar- the smell just about as telling as lipstick smeared on his soft lips and handsome jaw and down his vulnerable throat would be; revealing said surprise before Steve can feel a swell of jealousy. Maybe he bought two bouquets, one for his date to keep heat off of them for livin' together, and one for Steve. Or maybe revealing some fresh produce that they shouldn't be able to afford. Some other special item that Steve is pretty sure is rationed for the war effort. Now though... it could be anything that Bucky pulls out as a surprise: a new toy to play with, something for Steve to wear while they play, or maybe another peice of fine jewelry that stakes Bucky's claim in a public appropriate way, maybe concert plane or tickets. Even traditional flowers- the prettiest ones he can find, no thought spared to if Steve might be allergic to those ones, or if their scent is too strong for him. Not anymore.
But, yeah, Bucky always surprises him. One of his love languages is leaving Steve red and stuttering. Usually red and stuttering with a throbbing erection.
And this was supposed to be a present for Bucky, a little surprise from Steve for once. Perhaps a selfish surprise because Steve wanted to hear his voice do that delicious thing again but...
Who can blame him?
Also who can blame him when he doesn't even make it that far-
Steve comes home, his skin prickling with how sensitive he is, and he hops in the shower as he always does after an appointment, floating on the gentle sensation of hands caressing and climbing high on his skin plus the mean pain of wax being torn off of him, taking any new grown hair with it. Ripping his nerves. Friction building sparks that with just the lightest of touches turns to a full out fire. But after he gets out of the shower - rinsing himself off from excess wax that wasn't caught or stray hair that didn't get wiped away after being ripping off - he spends the time to really indulge.
Especially this time. When it's supposed to be a gift for Bucky.
Steve spreads a lightly scented oil over his skin, warming it between his hands first because of the intense sensitivity of his skin fresh from a session as he is.
Steve can't help shivering, shuddering tip to tail as his hands rub the oil into his skin.
The oil thick, slick, and sweet smelling, leaving him with a glisten all over and an aroma delicious enough that hopefully Bucky will sink his teeth in and take a bite out of him. Carnal in his despire. First, Steve does his arms and chest and legs (from his toes to ankles to knees to hips) and then... when he finally rubs, no, he finally takes the little bottle of oil and directly drips some of it into his crack and fully, fully bare butt and then moves going to put on his underwear or hang up his towel, or whatever, it doesn't matter. Because Steve's world suddenly stops.
A blush heats his face, neck, and chest at what happens when he moves and is slick with oil all over. Bare and slick.
When he's shaved- waxed entirely between his legs, his asscheeks sliding against one another, he can feel the rub of skin on skin so much more than just when he's shaved himself.
It's so slick.
Steve wants to moan.
So naughty.
Steve's eyes suddenly flick to the pretty underwear he laid out for himself after his shower despite the sensation that is consuming him in the moment. The perfect wrapping paper for Bucky's surprise gift.
Silk.
Pink.
His gift that Steve knew would end with Bucky pushing him over the nearest surface to rip any fabric he had off of him and spit over his waxed, newly exposed, pink hole, and fucking him with his tongue so thoroughly that Steve's toes would curl and he'd begin to sob and be unable to not hump the bed or counter or peice of furniture under him until he clenched, wailing, around Bucky's filthy and wicked tongue...
Just standing there, cock swelling hotly, thighs clenching together, Steve can feel his plan unraveling.
The urge to grab that oil again and slick his own fingers up only to sink them as deep as he possibly can into himself, stuff himself as full as he can with four fingers, rises to the back of his throat. A craving. He wants to feel the naked, sensitive, and smooth feeling of freshly waxed skin on skin between his cheeks mixed with the heavy but smooth fucked-out throb of his own hole. He wants to try to move on trembling legs and feel his hole- puffy and destroyed from being so well fucked. So well used.
Steve swallows thickly. He wants to feel as full as he feels smooth.
But-
But Bucky.
Steve whines aloud, reaching for the panties laid out in wait on top of the bathroom counter with shaking hands.
He doesn't put them on. He can't.
Steve doesn't slip the silk up one leg and then the other, cupping his already throbbing erection tight to his overheating body between his unsteady legs. He just-
He balls the pink silk up into a ball, tension curling tight in him to continue with his denial.
With the fabric in a crumpled ball, Steve sucks in a breath as he begins to tease himself, gluttonous for the sensation. He doesn't even know why he's doing it- he just... has to. It's so much as he draws the silk up his thigh. It tickles and it's too much but also it's not enough. It's not enough, rubbing the balled up fabric against his hip now. His inner thighs. So close to where he wants it. Where he should want it but... kinda doesn't right now.
He doesn't want the silk over his cock when there's more... interesting places to feel it.
But he can't bring himself to do that just yet, so, with a shuddering breath, blood surging through his veins, flushing him and throbbing into his cock, Steve dares to drag the panties over his every rect cock. Also recently bare and irrestibly smooth around the base.
Oh.
Steve's eyes flutter shut. And he nearly falls back where he stands.
It feels so good.
But it's not enough either. His hole is aching for attention, he wants to be split open and just imagining Bucky fucking him like this- licking him like this weakens Steve's knees devastatingly. Knowing that, his other hand shoots out and grips the counter while the hand with his panties, the one he should be wearing, wearing for Bucky, but is instead dragging over his sensitive flesh.
Steve dares to drag them - his fucking panties - right over his hole. Between his cheeks.
Fuuck-
Steve's breath flies out of him in a guttural moan.
He's burning up.
Steve can hardly stay standing.
He imagines Bucky doing this to him. Ripping the panties off of him like a wild and uncontrollably hungry animal to get at his smooth and oiled, skin. He imagines Bucky teasing him for being so pretty, knowingly making himself irresistible so he'll get fucked, guaranteed. A greedy lil thing.
But when Bucky finally stops teasing him, petting him with the evidence of sluttiness, his panties, and stretches him open, too impatient to use his tongue now, and then splits him open on his cock... when he fucks him, Bucky would rail him until he cums. Emptying himself inside of him only to pull out and let Steve feel the knee-wobbling way hot, thick cum drips out of his hole and over his sensitive skin... God.
Steve whimpers out loud at just the fantasy. Just his imagination.
And in his imagination, Bucky would let him whine and cry - ready to cum at just that feeling, wet and ruined with cum - for only a moment. Ever a tease. Chronically. Before Bucky would find his ripped silk panties again... and he'd-
He'd wad them up like Steve has them balled up in his own fist and he would-
Fuck.
He would shove them up into his ruined hole. He'd stuff his cum back into Steve's body with his own panties and Steve would be able to feel that silk, wet and hot, right up against his most sensitive skin.
Steve whines, lower lip trembling between his teeth. Oh, God.
And before he even knows what he's doing, heart racing and skin flushed, crawling with arousal-
Steve has those panties encircling his cock, between his shaft and his fist, and is fucking them. Whining and spilling in a true fucking mess all over the bathroom floor as he sensually squirms- moving his hips side to side to relish in the slick feeling where he's waxed. Waxed where he's never been before. Smooth and pretty.

Anaphylaxis
Zuko looked for an escape. ANY escape. But there was no way out unless he wanted to climb out of the window. He glanced at the window behind him and considered it. No. It was too high in his heavy robes. A moment later, it was too late. Katara had found him
She looked at him with a mix of annoyance and determination. Zuko swallowed and tried to wipe his sweaty hands discreetly on his robes. Katara closed the distance between them and glared up at Zuko, her arms crossed over her chest and her foot tapping impatiently.
"You want to tell me why you've been avoiding me all week? Or am I going to have to get Toph to beat it out of you?"
"A-avoiding you?" Zuko stammered. "I haven't been-"
"Are you really going to lie to me right now?" Katara demanded. "I saw you just now looking at the window like you were going to jump out. What's the matter with you? Is this because...because of last time? Is this about what I said about Mai?"
"No!" Zuko said quickly. "Mai and I...we broke up. For good this time." Katara dropped her arms and balked in surprise.
"Oh..." she said. "Um...I'm sorry. It's not because of what I said, is it?" Zuko waved her off impatiently.
"No, you didn't have anything to do with that. I mean you were right, but it was my decision."
"Ok..." Katara shifted uncomfortably on her feet, and she looked up at Zuko, her expressive eyes pleading. "Then why are you avoiding me?"
I'm not-"
"You are! You've been avoiding me since the banquet. You leave anytime I enter the room. You've barely said two words to me in three days. I'm not stupid. You are avoiding me. Why?"
Zuko stared at her helplessly. She waited expectantly for a long moment. Then a strange look crossed her face. She looked almost stricken, and Zuko thought he saw tears in her eyes. Oh, no!
"If you don't want to tell me, fine," she said bitterly. "I'm sorry for whatever it is I did to upset you, but I thought we were good enough friends that-"
"I'm not mad at you," Zuko blurted out. "I"m allergic to you!"
Whatever Katara had been expecting Zuko to say, that was not it. Her mouth was slack and all she could do was stare at him in stunned silence. After a moment, she blinked rapidly and shook her head.
"You're allergic to me?" she repeated. Zuko nodded and ran his hand through his hair in agitation.
"I noticed it at the banquet," he said. "I thought it was your perfume, but then the next day you weren't wearing it, but I still got the same reaction. I saw the physician and I've been trying to get some medicine that would make me feel better so I could be around you, but he said he didn't know what to prescribe for the symptoms."
"What?" Katara was staring at Zuko as if he'd grown a second head. "Zuko we used to sleep five feet apart. What symptoms?"
"I don't know," Zuko shrugged. "My heart was pounding, and I got sweaty, and it felt like my tongue was swelling up and I-I-I couldn't speak. I just got this tight feeling in my chest. I was trying not to be around you until I could get it under control, but I never meant to-to-"
"To hurt my feelings?" Katara supplied. Zuko nodded.
"I promise, I didn't mean to avoid you," he told her.
"How do you feel now?" she asked, taking a step forward. Zuko's eyes widened.
"Like I have a fever," he told her. "Like I've just run five miles and I can't catch my breath."
"Heart racing?" Katara asked. Zuko nodded dumbly. "Do you feel like you need to be closer to me?"
"Yes..."Zuko managed to whisper. A slow, amused smile crossed Katara's face as she took another step forward. She was close enough that Zuko could feel the heat of her on his skin.
"Zuko," Katara murmured, brushing her nose against his. "I think I'm allergic to you, too."

allergic to you
Word Count: 3, 713
Pairing: Tsukishima Kei x High School Age!Fem!Reader
Warnings: some swear words I guess, but as per usual, it’s just fluff from me.
A/N: Guess who’s finally joined another fandom lol hello Haikyuu fandom! Pls be kind, it’s my first time writing for this fandom but I am in love with Karasuno boys, it’s problematic. Anyways, please let me know if you liked it! Sorry if I didn’t quite capture him the way other writers do haha. Also, Y/N = Your (Last) Name, just cause typing Y/L/N is exhausting lol my b
(Not my gif, credits to the original creator!)
Yamaguchi was trying his very hardest not to laugh, his hands clasped together in front of his lips to stifle his giggles as the tall blond boy he had known for years just looked at him desperately.
“It’s not funny,” Tsukishima’s lips formed into a frown (almost a pout), looking away from his friend nervously. His fingers played with some chopsticks, poking at his uneaten lunch.
Yamaguchi had never see Tsukishima Kei nervous. Volleyball games? Totally calm. Math class? Easy. Exam season? Piece of cake.
But put Tsukishima near a girl? No, scratch that. Not just any girl. Put Tsukishima near Y/N? It was all over for him. Suddenly, this 190cm tall boy wanted to shrink small enough to run away and not be noticed.
“It’s a little funny, Tsukki,” Yamaguchi insisted, finally letting out just a tiny chuckle that he just couldn’t hold back. “I think you’re overreacting. Just a bit.”
Tsukishima’s eyes turned back to the other boy, staring at him as if analyzing him, “How could I be overreacting? I’m telling you, I’m allergic!”
Yamaguchi was really trying his best to be supportive, knowing that talking about things was already hard for Tsukishima, especially when involving a particularly cute girl. “You think... you’re allergic... to Y/N,” Yamaguchi retorted slowly, repeating how Tsukishima started this convo with.
“Don’t be an idiot,” Tsukishima scoffed, rolling his eyes. “Obviously it’s some product she uses or something,” his nose scrunched up slightly as he tried to think of what it could possibly be. “Like that hand lotion she uses. The one that smells like vanilla and brown sugar,” Tsukishima proclaimed, nodding to himself like he had solved the mystery.
The green haired boy was still trying his best to be supportive. He nodded slowly, giving a forced smile to his best friend as he slowly spiralled into insanity. He had never seen Tsukishima this desperate for answers before. “Hasn’t she let you use some of that hand lotion?” He wondered aloud, remembering very specifically how red Tsukishima’s ears got when she rubbed a bit into a rash he had gotten on his hand.
“Gotta take good care of your hands if you play volleyball, Tsukishima-san!” Y/N had beamed, her fingers massaging the cream in.
Tsukishima had practically fainted that day, though he’d never admit it.
The blond’s frown tightened, holding his hand to his chin in thought, “Right. So not the hand lotion then.”
“Maybe she got a new perfume?” Yamaguchi offered, nibbling on some of his lunch while Tsukishima thought it out.
“No, she’s still using the same one,” He mumbled, and Yamaguchi smirked to himself, knowing that Tsukishima would’ve never admitted before that he knew little details like this about her.
“Well. what kinds of symptoms do you have? Maybe that’ll narrow it down,” Yamaguchi suggested, leaning his head back on the wall behind them. It wasn’t unusual for Tsukishima to want to eat some place quiet, but today had been the first day that he had practically dragged Yamaguchi to this small secluded spot behind the school. The two of them sat against a wall to eat, though Tsukishima’s lunch had been completely forgotten.
“I just-” Tsukishima hesitated, eyebrows furrowing in annoyance as he tried to word how his body felt every time she was around. “I always feel so lightheaded. And my heartbeat’s always irregular too. Sometimes it feels like I can’t breathe properly.” His hand slid into his jacket pocket, pulling out his phone and tilting the screen towards Yamaguchi to show him a medical diagnostic page on the web. “Some people say these are symptoms of allergies. Or an anxiety attack. But I’m leaning more towards allergies.”
Yamaguchi squinted at the text, “You... Googled it?” He asked, a playful smile on his lips, glancing up at Tsukishima, amused.
“Well, what else am I supposed to do?” Tsukishima scoffed, scrolling through the page. “I don’t know what else it could be. It’s not with anyone else. It can’t be the classroom either, cause when she’s not around, I don’t feel anything.”
“Hm. So what’re you going to do about it?” Yamaguchi asked, going along with this ‘allergic’ idea as much as he could. He knew Tsukishima was very rational and even if he suggested what he figured was happening, Tsukishima would never listen.
“D-Do?” Tsukishima blinked. He hadn’t thought about what the next step was.
“Well I assume you don’t want to keep feeling that like right? You could always ask the teacher to move you, I suppose. Then ask her not to attend any of our games. Avoiding her for the rest of your life seems like the best choice doesn’t it?” Yamaguchi asked innocently, closing up his lunch box and taking a sip from his juice.
Tsukishima stayed quiet, eyebrows still furrowed and the frown on his face tightening. He knew that made sense - one of the girls in their class was allergic to nuts and she always had to be careful what she ate, and he had even heard of some people not eating or drinking milk products because of allergies. The logical part of his brain agreed with Yamaguchi, perhaps staying away from Y/N was the only answer.
“Then... maybe it’s not an allergy,” Tsukishima mumbled quietly. He hated going back on his word but he couldn’t deny that he loathed the idea of not seeing Y/N’s smile ever again. Or seeing her sit with someone else. “Maybe it’s just something I have to get used to.”
“You know, Tsukishima,” Yamaguchi started again, looking off to the scenery that was in front of them. His voice was light and airy as he tried to coax his friend to the idea, “What you’re going through sounds a lot like-”
Tsukishima could hear it in his voice, he knew the next word forming from Yamaguchi’s lips before it even entered the air. He slammed his lunch box closed and stood up abruptly, turning away from the other boy’s eyes. “Lunch is over,” he grumbled, as if that was the reason he stood up so dramatically.
Yamaguchi smirked and packed up his things, shaking his head slowly when Tsukishima wasn’t looking. He wasn’t at all surprised that Tsukishima was having a hard time accepting his feelings.
The word hung in the very serious boy’s mind for the rest of the day. He tried not to focus so much on Y/N as he sat next to her for the rest of their classes, tried to not inhale too much or look in her general direction, in fear that his “allergy” would act up again.
He was almost positive it wasn’t... that. He would know for sure if it was, wouldn’t he? His nose scrunched slightly as he thought about the music he had listened to before, ones that had just a good melody and beat and he definitely didn’t listen to because of the lyrics since they were about... that thing.
Didn’t some people talk about their heart feeling like it was going to fall out of their chest? That they found it hard to breathe? That it was like all life stopped when they saw that person? And that despite all this, they never wanted to be without them?
Tsukishima had to get to the bottom of this. He was either experiencing some sort of allergic reaction to her or he was experiencing feelings. He thought about ignoring them, pretending like they didn’t exist so that maybe everything would go back to normal one day. But how long would that take? Wouldn’t it just be easier to rip off the bandaid and find out now?
At the end of class, Tsukishima zoomed his way out of class, not waiting for Yamaguchi like usual.
“Is he alright, Yamaguchi-san?” Y/N asked, surprised that the two best friends weren’t walking out together like they had every other day. Some days, they would even walk out with Y/N on their way to practice. But apparently, not today.
“He’s got a lot on his mind,” Yamaguchi explained, waving it away with a smile. Perhaps today he would be walking home by himself. And that was fine by him.
Y/N packed up her things and waved goodbye to her other classmates, heading out the door and slipping in her headphones. Her mind drifted to all the things she had to do when she got home, whether or not there were leftovers to heat up today or if she should cook something up.
“You take so long,” a drawl voice interrupted the very beginning of her first song. She blinked in surprise, looking to her right where Tsukishima was leaning against a tree.
Y/N pulled out one earbud, tilting her head as she watched him. It wasn’t like she hadn’t seen him do this casual, I-don’t-care-about-anything lean, with his headphones around his neck and his hands shoved in his pockets. But there was something different about him this time. Why was he avoiding her eyes? Why was he not giving her an annoyingly carefree smile? Why were his ears turning pink?
“Were you... waiting for me, Tsukishima-san?” Y/N asked slowly. He didn’t move for a moment, as if still calculating something in that big brain of his. He pushed off of the tree after sighing, walking over to her slowly.
“Obviously,” was all he said, glaring down at her as if she should’ve known this.
“You rushed out of class so quick, I thought you were already going home,” Y/N responded, still a bit confused. “Don’t you and Yamaguchi normally walk home together?”
Why did she have to question so much? Why couldn’t she just realize what he was trying to do? Tsukishima huffed and grabbed her hand, dropping a nice cool juice box in it. His eyes darted away from her next inquisitive look, but glanced back almost immediately because he wanted to see her eyes widen just a little at her favourite juice box.
“W-What is this?” Y/N asked, holding it in her hands. Part of her wanted to examine it to make sure he hadn’t somehow tricked her into holding something that wasn’t actually juice. She looked up at him suspiciously - Tsukishima knew her favourite juice?
“You didn’t have one with you today. I figured you forgot your wallet again today,” Tsukishima mumbled, shoving his hands in his jacket again.
“O-Oh. I did, thank you. Um,” Y/N hesitated. Was Tsukishima trying... to be nice? “Why... why did you buy it for me?”
“I just said why,” Tsukishima scoffed, flicking her head gently. He scolded himself internally, feeling guilty as soon as she showed the surprise on her face. She’s asking why you thought to be nice, Kei, stop being snarky, he told himself harshly. “Sorry,” he muttered quickly, feeling almost immediately bad for flicking her.
Y/N just laughed though, giggles spilling from her lips as she looked up at him, “Are you feeling okay, Tsukishima-san? You’re turning red,” she teased gently and he looked away from her quickly, hating how quickly his face heated up.
He took a breath, trying to mimic how calm he was on the court. He turned back to look at her with a cocky smile and confidence gaze, though he was sure she could tell he was nervous, “I’m fine, Y/N-san. But I need to tell you something. And I’m only going to say it once so listen up.”
Y/N watched him intently, noting the fake confidence he was trying to put on. She nodded as he looked at her for any sign to keep going.
His lips opened for a moment and Y/N could’ve sworn there was a moment of panic in his eyes when nothing came out. “I’m going to walk you home today,” Tsukishima stated finally, each word thudding into the air. He felt his confidence falter as the wrong words left his mouth, shifting his bag on his shoulder and starting to walk ahead.
Y/N’s eyebrows furrowed, feeling her confusion only rise. Did he really build up that whole thing... just to walk her home?
“Hurry up or I’ll leave you here,” Tsukishima called behind his shoulder, still walking ahead. He was internally punching himself, groaning and uttering insults at his own stupid self. Couldn’t even say it. Couldn’t just say Y/N I like you and I think I’m either allergic to you or I’m utterly in love with you but I’ve been told I suck at explaining how I feel and that I never say the right things at the right time so please just reject me so I can move away from these exhausting feelings.
“Want some?” Y/N’s gentle voice was suddenly beside him, and Tsukishima felt his stomach doing that flipping motion again. He glanced down at her and saw her holding up the juice box at him. “Seems only fair, since you bought it,” she explained, the glimmer in her eyes making him feel way too warm inside.
“Sure,” he mumbled after a moment. She smiled just a little bit wider, holding up the juice to him, expecting him to just snatch it away and drink. But no, Tsukishima being a little bitch and deciding that if he couldn’t admit anything with words, he could try with actions, leaned down slightly, and latched his lips onto the straw. His hand wrapped around hers over the juice box, holding it still as he took a sip.
Y/N felt like she was suddenly bright red, her heart possibly having exploded right then and there. His eyes looked up to meet hers as he sipped, smirking a bit as he noticed the panicked and flushed look in her eyes.
Maybe the feeling is... mutual?
“Mm,” he hummed, pulling away after keeping her gaze for a second. “I guess I can see why you like it.”
Y/N had shivers running up and down her spine, feeling like Tsukishima had looked into her very soul and knew about her year-long crush on him.
The two of them started walking a bit slower after that, and to the external eye, you’d probably just see two classmates walking home together. But look a little closer, and you’d see both of them having internal conflicts. They managed to walk through the small roads filled with shops and make it about halfway to Y/N’s house in complete silence.
“Y/N-san,” Tsukishima finally ended it, the agonizing silence, in which he had been racking his brain trying to think of how to start a conversation. He stopped in his tracks as he spoke the one word, the two of them now on a quieter dirt path. There was no one to interrupt them, no one to save Tsukishima from embarrassment, no Yamaguchi to fill the awkward silence.
“Hm?” Y/N looked back at him, noticing him just standing there. “Are you alright, Tsukishima-san?”
“There’s something I need to say,” he started, his hands in his pockets clenched into fists.
“O-Oh okay.”
“I’ve been... feeling sick around you.” Baka, he scolded himself for what felt like the millionth time. That definitely wasn’t the way he had wanted to say it. “I-I mean, not like sick sick but like allergy sick,” he tried to recover, but scoffed at himself since that wasn’t all that much better.
Y/N’s eyebrows furrowed in response, trying to think about his reactions lately. He had definitely been more flushed lately, but she always thought that was annoyance. He’d been quieter and more distant, but it was Tsukishima after all. He looked over to her desperately, hoping to see that she was understanding what he was trying to say. She wasn’t.
Tsukishima was starting to get frustrated. He knew he wasn’t the greatest at communicating but how hard was it to see how much he liked her? Yamaguchi saw it, hell, even his upperclassmen teased him about it when they first saw Tsukishima and Y/N walking out of class together one day. So why did other people who didn’t need to know it, why did they understand but she didn’t? Why was she so dense?
You’re not saying anything, his mind reminded him as he scowled to himself.
“It has to be that,” Tsukishima finally continued quietly, his eyes now staring at his feet. He was practically trying to convince himself now. It had to be that there was a health related issue with him being around her. It had to be that, because if it wasn’t, it meant that Tsukishima had to tell her how he felt. And that meant that he was probably going to end up hurt. Why a girl like Y/N hung around a guy like him anyways was beyond him.
“Why?” Y/N frowned, still terribly lost in the cosmos of this odd confession. “Why would it have to be that?”
“Because if it isn’t that, then it means that I’ve fallen completely head over heels for you.”
Tsukishima wasn’t sure how he had managed to say the words. But there it was. His fists tightened even more, his fingernails digging into his palm so hard it was starting to hurt.
His eyes closed tightly, turning his head away from her. He didn’t want to look. He didn’t want to see laughter or disgust in her eyes. Maybe he could take it back now. Maybe he could-
Tsukishima jumped at the feeling of a poke on his chest, his eyes opening in surprise when he found Y/N standing much closer than she was earlier. “Are you teasing me?” She asked defensively, squinting her eyes up at him.
“T-Teasing?” Tsukishima stammered. He watched her eyes, noting how visibly upset she looked and he could feel his frustration rising. He had finally said what he had wanted to say this whole time... and she wasn’t even reacting the way she was supposed to. How stupid did she have to be? And why did she have to look so damn cute while doing it?
“Yamaguchi-san told you, didn’t he? I knew that poophead couldn’t keep his mouth shut,” she grumbled, crossing her arms against her chest. “He swore he wouldn’t tell you, but I should’ve known. You guys are best friends and all.”
“Told me... told me what?”
“That I’ve liked you practically since we met,” Y/N huffed, putting her hands on her hips. “Listen, Tsukishima-san, if you don’t like me back, you don’t have to tease me like this. I’m perfectly fine being rejected,” she told him with a pout on her lips (she was definitely not fine being rejected, and was planning on crying at home after this). “Don’t act like you didn’t know.”
Tsukishima‘s eyes widened, staring at her like she had grown a second head. “You... You like me?” He gulped. His allergies must be getting worse, his heart was thumping so hard against his chest, he couldn’t think straight.
Y/N and him shared a confused look for a moment, neither one of them sure who was teasing whom at this point. “Didn’t... didn’t you know? That’s why you’re being nice to me?” She asked him, poking his chest again. “Why else would you be walking me home and buying me juice?”
“Why would...” Tsukishima’s lips curled into a smile and suddenly he burst out into laughter, tilting his head back in amusement.
“Why are you laughing?” Y/N whined, punching his arm lightly with a huff. “This isn’t a time to be laughing at me!”
Tsukishima straightened up with his signature cocky smile, shaking his head as he fixed his glasses on his face. Then, his hand moved to hit the top of her head.
“OW! Tsukishima-san!”
“You idiot. Why would I be standing here confessing to you if I was just going to make fun of you?” Tsukishima scoffed, smirking at her. “If I didn’t like you back and I found out you liked me, don’t you think I would’ve made it clear by now that you never stood a chance?”
Y/N thought about this for a moment, remembering that one time a girl in a different class had confessed to him after attending one of his matches.
“I think you’re incredible, Tsukishima-san! A-And I just.... well I just...”
“Are you trying to confess to me?” Tsukishima didn’t even bother looking up from his study book, finishing an equation before even glancing at her. “You should just give up now. I’m not interested.”
The girl had teared up so much, even Y/N had felt bad (even though she was secretly happy that Tsukishima hadn’t accepted the confession). Yamaguchi had yelled at Tsukishima about being gentle that day.
“Why would I be nice to someone stupid enough to think I’d like them? I didn’t give her any hints that I did, I don’t even know her,” Tsukishima grumbled.
Y/N had internalized those words, deciding she wouldn’t confess her feelings to Tsukishima ever. If she did, and Tsukishima rejected her, he probably wouldn’t want to be around her as friends ever again.
“So...” Y/N thought to herself for a moment, trying to reexamine what had happened today. “What was with the juice box then?” She asked him.
“I thought...” Tsukishima frowned a little, looking up at the sky in thought. “I thought when you confess you were supposed to... give a gift or something.”
Y/N couldn’t help but giggle at his thought process and Tsukishima glared at her slightly. “You’re laughing at me now?”
She shook her head quickly, trying to stifle her giggles, “I just... I think it’s sweet,” she beamed, holding onto her little juice box even though it was empty now.
Tsukishima watched her carefully before smiling a little, patting her head gently, “Alright then, let’s get you home. I’ll bring another juice box for you for our date.”
“D-Date?” Y/N repeated shyly, following him as he started to walk again.
“You thought I’d just confess to you and not ask you out? Idiot,” Tsukishima smirked, feeling such an intense relief on his shoulders. His heart was still beating furiously and his stomach felt like it was going to come up his throat, but... it wasn’t as frustrating of a feeling now.
After he dropped her off at her house with the promise of walking her to school tomorrow morning, Tsukishima couldn’t help but allow himself to smile widely the whole way home.
If this is what an allergy felt like, he never wanted it to stop.
** ** ** ** ** ** ** **

i have no basis for this hc besides the fact that i think itd be fucking hilarious for Jaskier to be the allergy kid, where hes just allergic to fucking everything — but he also just doesn’t give a shit??
his first couple weeks on the trail with Geralt, they stop by a tavern for the night and they’re offered some bread and cheese and meats, and Jaskier sees the cheese and just starts shoveling it into his mouth, then five minutes later he’s in the alley puking his guts up and Geralt is like “What the fuck did they drug you????” and Jaskier has to look him in the eye and tell a witcher that he’s lactose intolerant or smth and Jaskier walks back inside to start eating more cheese bc he’ll be damned if he gives up cheese of all things while traveling with this man.
he’s allergic to citrus — and is aware of it — and still buys orange scented perfumes and soaps and after seeing the way Jaskier breaks out in rashes and hives whenever he uses it, Geralt has to pin him to the ground and pour them out so that way Jaskier doesn’t get to use them “I don’t care that you think they smell good, you’re having a fucking allergic reaction you idiot” and Jaskier gives him the cold shoulder. The next morning, he picks up some oranges from the market to eat while they walk to the next town and they have a fucking stand off in the middle of the road, staring each other down because Jaskier you’re allergic, you could die and Geralt I’m going to eat this fucking orange and my mouth is going to get incredibly itchy and im going to enjoy it
he’s also fucking allergic to grass?? Like how convenient, a traveling bard, allergic to fucking grass. His ankles and knees get really itchy and when they sleep, he wakes up with a rash on the side of his face that Geralt slaps some sort of salve on and says lets get moving. Along with the grass is hay, he’s only mildly allergic to it, but whenever he feeds Roach, or they have to sleep in a hayloft, he gets super snotty and sneezy and teary so Geralt is usually okay with spending a little extra coin to keep Jaskier from all that shit in order for him to sleep in an actual bed.
He’s allergic to most animals, including Roach, which makes their relationship even more strained, but he’ll still brush her down and kiss her nose and braid her mane like she deserves even if his eyes are so itchy and teary he can barely see her.
Fish? of any sort? Out of the fucking question. If he’s even within 10ft of fish, his throat will start to swell and thats one of the ones Geralt takes most seriously “Jaskier I don’t care if you haven’t had seared trout since you were six, I am not giving you fish. I am actually going to make sure you’re never near a fish ever fucking again? Understand? You’re not dying over fish.”
Hes incredibly sensitive to nuts, an when Geralt pisses him off, sometimes Jaskier will shove his hand into Roach’s saddlebag and pull out a handful of nuts and just give Geralt a look, before shoving them in his mouth — usually Geralt will start apologizing or trying to reason with Jaskier that the hives and the vomit are not worth it, but Jaskier very much disagrees.
The first time he’s brought to Kaer Morhen, Jaskier plays “how many witchers can I scare before I get in trouble with Geralt” and the game doesn’t last long. They don’t find it nearly as funny — Lambert thinks its kinda funny once he realizes Jaskier is totally fine and doing it to fuck with Geralt, bc he loves fucking w Geralt, but if he ended up killing his bard within days of meeting him, that wouldn’t have ended well with anybody — as Jaskier does. They all think they’ve killed Geralts precious little songbird but Geralt walks over like “Jaskier, I will step on your dick if you don’t cut it out. I literally told you we have plenty of stuff that’s safe for you to eat, stop eating cheese at every fucking given moment.”
They have a little “What exactly is this weird child allergic to” meeting and Jaskier keeps giving bullshit items like im allergic to running laps around the keep and im deathly allergic to Geralt’s attitude when he hasn’t gotten his beauty sleep and Valdo Marx (which no one has any clue who that is but Jaskier thinks he’s a comedic fucking genius) and eventually the list gets pinned by the kitchen, where Jaskier can add newly discovered allergies to it — which he doesn’t do, he just doodles and crosses things off whenever hes in the mood to eat something that makes his mouth itch — and everyone can make sure they don’t feed the bard death food.
#i just think he’d be that kid#yknow#also geralt learning that he cant kiss jaskier after eating certain things and jaskier gets all mopey about it#lesbianroach: txt#jaskier

His Coat [Obey Me! Barbatos/Lance]
Note: I’m looking at commissioning a Barbatos cosplay, ‘cause I don’t think my wrist will handle that much sewing well. ._. So I was like...what if Lance wore Barbatos’s clothes??? Here we are.
Obey Me! Masterlist
--
Lance stood in the mirror with a crooked smile. He did a small spin, the tail part of the coat flowing out. He laughed lightly and examined the frills of the sleeves and the frills over his right jacket. They were silky and soft to the touch. The coat was warm and nearly drowned him in his smaller frame. The best part, though, was that it smelled like his favorite demon
Barbatos’s scent was much more subdued than most, seeing as the demon refused to wear any perfumes of any kind. He didn’t want to risk giving anyone he came into contact with a migraine or allergic reaction, so he used scentless things. Still, that didn’t stop the aromas of teas and subtle hints of whatever he’s baked from sticking to him.
Lance hummed, enjoying the scent of green tea and vanilla cake with strawberries. Two things that Barbatos had started to smell like more often after he realized Lance’s affinity for the two. Lance’s fingers played with the delicate chain as he melted further into the coat. Then, the door opened. Lance shot his head in the direction with widened eyes.
“Lance,” Barbatos’s voice sounded from the doorway. “What are you doing?” The demon shut the door behind him and made his way over to the human.
“I—Um, you see,” Lance stammered as he hid his face into the collar of the coat.
Barbatos chuckled lightly, wondering exactly where Lance’s hands were hiding in the sleeves. His gloved hands trailed down Lance’s arms until he found those hands. He held one of Lance’s hands in the jacket and made him twirl around in a circle. The demon smirked but hummed with approval.
"I do think I enjoy seeing you in my clothes,” Barbatos spoke with something dangerous laced in his tone. His eyes glowed ever so slightly as his horns started to form. Lance gulped as he tried to figure out exactly what was running through Barbatos’s mind. “It certainly feeds my greed.”
"Your greed?” Lance asked in a meek tone.
Barbatos raised a hand and gently caressed the side of Lance’s face. “It makes it blatantly obvious that you’re mine and I’m yours.” He examined Lance some more. “Perhaps I should have you wear my clothes more so that no demon tries to take you.”
Lance jumped as he felt Barbatos’s tail wrap around his lower leg. He glanced down at it before gazing up into Barbatos’s still gleaming eyes. “I…I wouldn’t mind that.”
Barbatos’s chest rumbled in amusement. “Wonderful. Now, I do hope you plan on wearing that to dinner.”
“To dinner?” Lance squeaked out. “With Lord Diavolo and Lucifer?”
Barbatos smirked. “Is that a problem?”
Lance wanted to protest and say that yes, it was a problem. His lips formed a thin line, wanting to please the one before him. Slowly, he shook his head. “No, if you’re okay with it, I guess not.”
Barbatos laughed and pressed a quick kiss to Lance’s forehead. “Thank you for indulging me.” He placed a hand on Lance’s back and guided him out of the room and towards the dining room. For a moment, it was silent until Barbatos spoke, “You don’t truly have to wear it if you don’t want to, Lance.”
Lance pulled the coat closer around him. “No, it’s okay. It’s comfortable.”

strawberry kisses
you and felix have a longstanding tradition of baking the day after finals. usually, it’s the best method of relaxing after long hours of studying. unfortunately, you find yourself rather tense this time — after all, it’s always fun to spend an entire day in a cramped kitchen with your crush, isn’t it?
pairing: lee felix x reader
warnings: fluff and kissing, mild angst, reader likes strawberries (sorry if you’re allergic skdlsd), ex boyfriend (but supportive bestie) minho, reader has low self confidence :(, like two curse words, kisses!!
genre: friends to lovers au, kinda idiots to lovers, mutual pining
word count: 2.9k+
a/n: short fic for Felix hehe
Your eyes glazed over as you reviewed the last response of your final exam of the term. After two long hours of plugging equations you hardly understood into your nearly-dead calculator and speed-writing to the point where you’re sure you’ve bruised your dominant hand, you finally finished. At lightning speed, you gathered your exam papers and submitted them at the front with a quick prayer to the universe.
A few other students followed your rushed pace out of the large lecture hall, all of you eager to finally get out of the stuffy room.
As you stepped out of the packed hall and into the cooling outdoors, you checked your phone, which was filled with texts from the one person you were trying desperately to get out of your head (and miserably failing at that).
felix (strawberry head) <3
5:23 PM
did you finish your chem final ???
hyunjin and i just submitted our video for our dance performance
your editing was very good btw :D
5:35 PM
y/nnnnn you’re taking forever :(
we’re waiting at the quad for you !!
5:40 PM
*i am waiting at the quad for you
the others got too hungry and left, but i’m waiting for you!
pls hurry it’s cold :[
You bit back a laugh at his texts, his heartwarming tone filling you with a familiar fuzzy feeling. You pushed the feeling aside as you texted a reply.
y/n
5:43 PM
be there in 2 :D
You stifled a smile as you rushed towards the quad. Soon enough, you saw Felix and his bright, red-dyed hair (you first noted that it closely resembled a strawberry). The moment your eyes met his, you felt your heart skip a beat and heat spread across your face. This was the common reaction you’ve had for the past few months whenever you see Felix.
He rushed over to you with a giddy smile and his arms outstretched. Quickly, he barrelled into you and pulled you into a tight embrace.
“You took so long,” he whined, his chest vibrating as he spoke.
“I know, I know. ‘M sorry,” you responded, your voice slightly muffled by his shirt. You took a second to enjoy his hold and the comforting warmth that Felix always provided you whenever he was near. Over the past few years, you’ve grown accustomed to the scent of his sweet floral perfume, the feeling of his tight hugs, and the way he played with your fingers when he was bored.
All the things you were fond of were now extreme nuisances in your life. Not because they were annoying or because you disliked Felix, but rather the complete opposite; you were completely, helplessly, and foolishly in love with him.
“You ready to go?” Felix asked suddenly, breaking you out of your thoughts. He brought his arms down from around you, and you looked down at the ground as you nodded, hoping that he didn’t see the intense blush that was spreading from your face to your neck.
You are so fucked for tomorrow.
After an entire night of tossing and turning in anxiety, the next day finally arrived. To say you were nervous was a massive understatement.
The minute you woke up, you began to anxiously clean your apartment while your roommate Ryujin laughed at you. As you wiped down every visible crevice, she made sure to pester you about a “missed spot” or tempt you with sweets.
“You’ve never cleaned this much whenever Felix came over before,” she pointed out with a laugh while you wiped down the kitchen counters for the fourth time.
“What do you mean?” you asked, your voice uncharacteristically high-pitched.
Ryujin scoffed. “It is so obvious that you like Felix, there’s no point in lying to me,” she stated bluntly.
Your hand froze mid-wipe on the counter. You looked over at your blue-haired roommate nervously. “Is it really… that obvious?”
“Yes,” she deadpanned.
You winced and dropped your head onto the smooth stone countertop. “Do you think he’s noticed?” you moaned into your arms.
“If he hasn’t, I will personally pay for his glasses prescription.”
You whined again as you lifted your head up to look directly at Ryujin. “If he’s noticed then why hasn’t he said anything?”
She stood up as she answered, “Not sure but you could always ask him today.”
Your mouth dropped in horror at the suggestion. “I can’t tell him how I feel! That would completely ruin our friendship!”
“So you’d rather continue tip-toeing around him and never get a clear answer?” she questioned, her arms crossed.
“Yes.”
Ryujin sighed and started to collect her things. “You can do whatever you want,” she started as she placed her papers in her backpack, “but I recommend you tell him soon.” She stood up and headed for the door. Just before opening it and leaving you alone with your thoughts until Felix arrived, she turned around and said, “I won’t be home until late, have fun.” With that, she winked and walked out of your shared apartment.
You scoffed at her suggestive tone and stood upright to check the time.
10:08 AM
You gasped. Felix said he was going to arrive at 10:30, but knowing him he would be at least 15 minutes early, meaning you only had 7 minutes to get yourself together!
You cursed and rushed to your bedroom. Switching out of your wrinkled pajamas, you opted for a random hoodie you grabbed out of your closet and jeans. After you changed, you made a beeline for the bathroom and fixed your appearance. You quickly brushed through your hair and washed your face, hoping you removed all remnants of your restless sleep.
Just as you predicted, you heard four distinctive knocks on your front door right at 10:15.
“Coming!” you exclaimed as you rushed out of your bathroom.
Right before you opened the front door, you placed a hand on your beating heart and mumbled words of encouragement to yourself. Then, after deciding that you were probably taking too long, you pulled the door open.
Immediately, Felix, covered in a large hoodie and arms filled with large bags of baking ingredients, greeted you with a large grin. Like every other time, you felt your heart skip a beat when you made eye contact with him.
“Hi,” you said simply, a smile on your face.
“Hi,” he responded. He looked you up and down, asking, “Are you wearing my hoodie?”
You paled and looked down at the large pink hoodie, immediately recognizing it as the one that Felix lent you almost one year ago when he dropped you off at the airport since you forgot yours in the car. Once you got back from your trip, you’d forgotten to give it back to him.
“O-oh,” you stuttered, looking down at the oversized sleeves. “I didn’t even realize,” you continued awkwardly. “You can ha -”
“It’s fine,” he cut you off, the smile never leaving his face. He shrugged. “You look better in it anyways.”
Your mouth dropped and you found yourself unable to respond for a few moments. Felix laughed at your dumbfoundedness and gently pushed you aside to walk into the apartment. Once he set the bags down on the kitchen counters, you returned to your senses and closed the door to walk over to him.
“So, what are we making today?” you asked, trying to keep your voice as level as possible. It wasn’t an easy task to do, considering his proximity to you.
You held your breath as he grabbed your hands and looked into your eyes. “What’s your favorite fruit?” he asked excitedly.
“Er, strawberries?” you answered, tilting your head to the side in mild confusion.
At that, Felix let go of your hands and quickly pulled out a carton of fresh strawberries from one of the bags. You gasped in delight at the sight of the bright fruit and immediately thanked him.
“It’s no big deal,” he responded while sliding the fruits into the fridge. “I’m gonna eat most of the tarts and choco strawberries anyways,” he added with a sneaky laugh.
You scoffed. “You always say that but you always end up giving me the most.” You smirked at him while taking out the baking materials.
“I don’t give it to you,” he countered. “You steal them.”
“Whatever helps you sleep at night,” you told him with a sing-song tone. He laughed from your side, and you swore that you heard actual sparkles, as if he were a fairy, when he did.
You cleared your throat, hoping to rid your mind of distracting thoughts that could be potential problems during the next seven hours that Felix would be at your apartment. “So, master chef Felix,” you started, lowering your voice like a TV show announcer. “What are you going to do first?”
“Well, my fair announcer,” he began, holding up the silicon whisk like a microphone. “I think we should start with preparing the shortbread dough, what about you?”
“Ah, you are the chef. Lead the way,” you responded with a wide smile.
You both laughed together and actually began the baking. Like usual, Felix did most of the work while you played music and assisted from the side. You worked together seamlessly, and soon enough the shortbread cookies were done and strawberry jam cooling to the side.
While you taste-tested the jam, Felix began to whisk the melted chocolate, and you took this time to admire him. You stood at his side, allowing you to admire his side profile.
Felix was easily one of the most beautiful individuals you ever laid your eyes on. But his appearance wasn’t the only part you fell for — he was one of the few people whose inside beauty matched their outside beauty.
Felix was kind, funny, optimistic, and just about every positive adjective you could find in a dictionary. After every failed test, he was there with a cup of strawberry ice cream and a shoulder to cry on. When you landed your first job, he was there to celebrate with you even when your own family wasn’t. And when you and Minho mutually broke up, he was there to give you advice as you coped with the end of your first relationship.
How could you not fall for him?
And sometimes you had the feeling that he liked you back. The touches that would linger for just a few seconds too long, the soft smiles that Chan claimed he only ever gave to you, and his late-night texts all spurned a tiny hopeful fire in you that kept your crush alive.
No matter how many times you tried to get over him and convince yourself that your crush didn’t exist, the tiny voice in your head still spoke. “But what if he likes you back?”
Now, as Felix stood by your side with a soft smile on his face while he whisked the chocolate, that voice screamed louder than ever.
And just as you gained a sliver of courage, the same paralyzing thoughts that have held you back for the past few months returned.
Felix was out of your league in every way. He was social and easily commanded the attention of an entire room with so much as two words. His outward beauty matched his insides, and everyone on campus reached a collective agreement that if angels ever existed and walked among us — Lee Felix was certainly one of them.
And those things were only the tip of the iceberg that is Felix. He was talented, sensitive, supportive, passionate, and everything you could ever ask for and then some.
You then thought back to all the people he rejected - kindly, of course - and how you matched up to them. If Felix didn’t choose to go out with all those beautiful and talented people, what on Earth made you think you would choose you?
At this point, Felix picked up on your sudden silence and how your breaths grew heavy and uneven.
“Are you… alright?” he asked carefully, his own chest beating heavily.
You stared at him, panicked that he caught onto your apprehension. “Um…” you started, trailing off as you met his gaze.
Felix let go of the whisk and grabbed your hands. “You can say whatever you need to.”
“I uh,” you started after a few moments, internally battling yourself to gain courage as you realized that it’s now or never. “I kinda like you,” you admitted quietly, looking down at your intertwined hands anxiously. You waited for him to pull his hand away in disgust and start to kindly reject you like he did to all those other people, but it never came. After a few seconds, his hands still the entire time, you looked up at him with glassy eyes in confusion.
“What?” he finally said, his deep voice softer than ever.
You looked back down at your hands shamefully. “Do I really have to repeat it?” you asked weakly. “I like you, Felix. I have for the past few months and it’s been driving me insane because it feels like my heart’s about to stop dead whenever I see you and I can never think straight when you’re with me. Apparently, it’s been pretty obvious and I really tried my best to get over it so it wouldn’t hurt our friendship.
“Trust me, I really wanted to get over it but I couldn’t, and I know you don’t like me back so it’s ok. I can deal with it on my own and you can just leave a -”
“Y/N,” Felix said suddenly, his voice firm. You looked up, tears rolling down your face as you were sure that he was about to reject you.
“Felix please don’t interrupt me. At least let me finish what I have to say,” you pleaded softly, removing your hands from his.
“Y/N,” he repeated, his voice much gentler. He carefully wiped the tears from your face and took your hands into his again. “Can I say something before you finish?” he requested.
You choked back a sob as you nodded, certain that he was just going to let you down kindly.
“I like you too, Y/N,” he said shyly, a blush spreading across his freckled face.
Your entire body froze.
“I was too scared to admit it because I didn’t think you liked me back,” he continued, the words slowly registering in your mind. “To be honest, I thought you still liked Minho.”
You blushed at his words, thinking back to all the times you would pull Minho, your ex-boyfriend, to the side to talk about Felix these past few months. You didn’t realize how it must have looked to Felix or your other friends.
“I was also… afraid of ruining our friendship, so I’ve just kept it to myself the past two years.”
You gaped at him. “Two years?” you sputtered, causing him to laugh at the way your eyes widened comically. “That’s when we first started uni!”
He shrugged. “What can I say? I was instantly attracted to the way you fought Chan on why you should be allowed to keep the minifridge in your dorm,” he joked.
You blushed at the embarrassing memory, although it wasn’t completely regrettable as it was how you met most of your current friends — including Felix.
“I’m surprised,” you voiced simply. “I didn’t think you would ever like me back.” You breathed out, your muscles relaxing instantly.
Felix grinned again and he moved slowly to envelop you in his arms. He rested his hands on the small of your back and his head on the crook of your shoulder.
“Does this mean that I can take you out on a date?” he whispered.
“Will you promise to stop taking unflattering pictures of me and sending them to me in the middle of the night?” you asked, your head resting against his and arms around him.
He sighed. “Fine,” he answered reluctantly with a whine.
“Then sure,” you responded and pulled your head back to meet his eyes. His eyes shined from the sunlight pouring through the windows and his freckles glimmered like stars across a canvas. Felix was truly beautiful inside and out.
“You have some strawberry jam on your lip,” he said after a few silent moments where you both admired each other.
“Really?” you asked. Your hand moved from his back towards your face, but Felix caught your hand in midair and returned it to its original position.
“I’ll get it,” he murmured with a gentle smile before closing the distance between your lips.
You held your breath as he pressed his soft lips against yours. You instantly recognized the strawberry chapstick he uses and the taste of the shortbread cookies. He swiped his tongue against the corner of your lip, and the sudden sensation caused a shiver to run down your spine.
You brought your hand up to his hair and gently tugged at his dyed locks. Felix brought you closer to him and massaged your back as he deepened the kiss.
When you finally pulled away, your face was burning red and you were completely breathless. Felix was smiling giddily, his arms still around yours.
“I think there’s still some jam left,” he told you, not even giving you a second to respond before he pressed his lips against yours once again. This kiss was much more playful than the last as you giggled against each other in the kiss.
“Did you get it all?” you asked him, your voice reduced to a murmur as he continued kissing your lips.
He hummed, kissing you once and twice in between, before responding, “I don’t think so.”
You laughed against his lips. “Well, I guess you better get it all. I can’t have strawberries stuck on my lips all day.”
He laughed with you, and true to his words, he eventually did get all the strawberry jam off (an extra two hours and an uncountable amount of kisses later).

REDACTED verse - A dinner and a show
Prompt: any | any | competition
Word Count: 2,460
Author/Team: LadyMonotone
Fandom/Original: Redacted ASMR (Vincent Solaire/Lovely)
Rating: T
Triggers: Explicit implications
Summary: It's a tradition within the Solaire Clan that the King would visit his progenies from time to time. Tonight, Will is coming over to Vincent & Lovely's apartment for dinner. What's not a tradition is the karaoke competition that comes afterwards.
ConCrit: Y
I don’t know what happened. This oneshot just went out of my control but I had so much fun writing it today! I hope you guys enjoyed it!
Also, I just realised that all the characters in my oneshots have been eating lately. Oh my god, I got so hungry when I was writing them that I subconsciously includes food in some of the scenes 😭 Food is my love language so I guess it’s cute that the bois and their lovers would sit down and eat together.
That being said, I hope you guys will crave Korean food as much as I am in this oneshot! 😅
-
“Vincent? I need your help. Can you tell me what’s Will's favourite colours?”
“Lovely - ”
“Because I have some formal outfits in our closet, but they don’t mean shit if Will hate the colours.”
“Lovely, hang on - ”
“Is he allergic to perfumes? Colognes? I have some soft-scented bottles that should be Vampire-friendly! I think? Most of them are floral though… oh! Does he have a favourite flower? Do you think I should buy some before he comes over?”
“What? No, Lovely, I think you’re working yourself up - ”
“I know you bought some blood bags for dinner but do you think we should cook some food too? Does Will like to eat? Shit, I knew I should have bought some groceries yesterday after class!”
“You’re not listening to me at all, Lovely…”
“We have to clean up the whole place too. I don’t know how our furniture gets so dusty so quickly! I just wiped them down a few days ago!”
“...”
“Do you think I should do my hair too? It’s a bit of a mess lately; I could use a trim. Does Will - ”
Lovely's eyes widen as a deep kiss suddenly silences them. Their heart pounds when Vincent brings them close to his chest, trapping his lover in his arms. Lovely's eyes flutter close when he pulls away to press butterfly kisses on their neck. They couldn’t help it; they moan and tilt their head back when they feel fangs delicately drag down their tender skin.
“Vincent!” Lovely hisses, not sure for what, though, when Vincent's fangs pinprick where their pulse is.
“Oh? Are you finally with me again, Lovely?” Vincent breathes, loving how their heart begins to beat faster and faster in anticipation. His chest reverberates when he chuckles deeply. “There we go… I have your attention again, little one.”
They grumbled at the unfairness of it all. Just as Lovely knew all of Vincent’s weaknesses and tickle spots, he knew how weak their knees behaved when he pressed his fangs to any parts of his partner's body. Especially down south.
“I’m serious here, Vince.” Lovely whines. “There are so many things we have to do before Will comes over for dinner tonight. I want to make sure everything’s perfect.”
Vincent gives Lovely a deadpan look. They would’ve coo at how adorable he looks if it weren’t for his Vampiric speed and his habit of chucking them onto the bed whenever Lovely is being too stubborn to listen to reason. “Lovely? A question: are you dating my Sire or me?”
Lovely blinks; they didn’t expect that. “Uh, you, duh.”
“Then trust me, as your boyfriend,” Lovely has no idea why Vincent emphasised that last word, but they knew better than to interrupt him when he gets like this. “That everything’s going to be fine. Besides, I told you that while this might look like the whole ‘meeting the parent’ shtick, the relationship between a Sire and their Progeny is way more than that.” He patiently reminds them.
“Well yeah, but he means a lot to you.” Lovely points out. Now, why did Vincent look so surprised at that? “So that means he’s important to me too. That’s why this dinner has to be perfect.”
For a moment, Vincent said nothing. He just stares at them in wonderment.
Lovely let out a surprised squeak when Vincent suddenly crushed them in a hug. “How did I get so damn lucky with you, Lovely?” He murmurs, face buried on top of their head. “Sometimes I think that you’re… too amazing to be real.”
So soft and sweet; that’s Vincent. Lovely lets him cuddle them like his personal teddy bear until he's satisfied.
“Now, I need you to do something for me, Lovely. Do you think you can do it?”
Lovely raise an eyebrow. “Depends on what it is, Vince. I haven’t eaten anything yet, so I can only give you at least four hours in bed - ”
“N-Not that!” Vincent hurries to interject, a brilliant red blush runs across his cheeks despite him being a Vampire. He coughs once to get them on track, playfully glaring at Lovely for trying to distract him. “Geez, Lovely. It’s still way too early for… that. But we're definitely going to revisit that. Anyway, I need you to calm down for a second, OK? Will is a pretty chill guy and an open-minded Sire. He knows how much I love you, so you have nothing to worry about.” He gently assures them, rubbing calming motions up and down Lovely's back.
Lovely could feel their anxiety melts away. Just enough for them to finally breathe again ever since Vincent dropped the bomb that William Solaire will be coming over for dinner tonight.
Apparently, everyone in the Clan knows that the King would visit his Progenies at least once a month to check up on them. Just like how a parent would drop by their children's home for a visit, in Lovely's opinion.
“Ok. You win, baby.” Lovely sighs, loving how his rubbing eases the tense muscles. They arch their back like a pleased, spoiled cat when Vincent messages that spot below their shoulders. “Ooooh, yes, that’s the spot!”
Once Lovely's bones feel like they could melt at any time, they throw Vincent a grateful smile.
“Now, there’s the smile I’ve been missing the whole day!” Vincent teases. “C’mon Lovely, let’s plan for dinner before we take our nap. How do you feel about seafood?”
“Oh, I can go for some seafood. It’s been a while.”
“Spicy steamed crabs with scallops, battered pan-fry oysters and some chilled bowl of rice top with raw salmon and sea bass with slices of your favourite veggies? All Korean-style."
“Hell yes. I think we have all the ingredients for that. Wait. Err, can Will handle spicy food?”
"Uh... I have no idea. Maybe we should hold back on that spicy steamed crabs with scallops just in case."
Ever since the two started living together, Vincent really took a shine when it came to cooking and baking. The idea of providing for Lovely makes him ridiculously happy, and besides, him whipping up healthy and delicious food for them results in much richer and sweeter blood flowing within his lover for him to feed on so… win-win!
As the two of them traverse to the kitchen to start preparing the ingredients for dinner, Lovely slowly gain the confidence that their dinner tonight with Vincent's Sire will turn out alright.
And before both of them knew it, the sun had set.
After a fresh shower, the entire apartment is now spotless (to Lovely's standard), and dinner is served on the table, the doorbell rings.
"I'll get it!" Lovely announce just as Vincent finish putting down the plates. They smoothen out the creases on their clothes, roll their shoulders before taking a deep, calming breath and answer the door. Like a soldier marching towards the battlefield.
Seeing his partner's dramatic reaction, Vincent just shakes his head.
As soon as Lovely opens the door, William Solaire greets them. "Good evening. I hope I'm not too early. The evening traffic has been quite a hassle lately. I figured that even if I'm a bit early, I could help you and Vincent in the kitchen." Will explains. In his arms is a bouquet of white pear blossoms, yellow gladioluses and red tulips. When Lovely stares at them curiously, Will smiles knowingly. "Vincent informed me that you don't drink, so I decided that flowers would be the appropriate gift as oppose to a bottle of champagne."
"They're so pretty." Lovely reply, breathless when they receive the bouquet. "Thank you so much, Will! I'll put them in a vase now. Oh, and please come in." They graciously step aside to let Vincent's Sire in.
While Lovely is busy rummaging for a vase in the storeroom, Will and Vincent make small talks over at the dining table. Vincent passes the ancient Vampire a tall glass of blood which Will accept with gratitude.
"Hey, Will. How's it going?"
"I'm fine, Vincent. Thank you for asking." Will reply after dabbing the bloodstain on the corner of his lips. "The Clan is the same as usual; Our Newborn members have finally settled in nicely, much to Sam's relief. I plan to visit them next week."
Vincent tops up Will's empty glass before replying. "That's great to hear." He's about to say something else before a loud bang against the wall in the storeroom stops him. "Uh, Lovely? Is everything OK in there?" He calls out.
"It's fine, it's fine!" Lovely shouts back. "I found the perfect vase for the flowers!"
Vincent groans in exasperation. When Will throws him a confused expression, Vincent is compelled to explain. "Look, Will, Lovely has been freaking out about tonight's dinner the whole day. They think that if it turns out anything but perfect, you're going to be disappointed in them. So just... just play along, alright?"
Will chuckles; his heart warms at the thought that Lovely holds him in such high regard. What an adorable human. "Is that so? Very well then, I will play the perfect guest towards such kind hosts."
And true to his words, when Lovely joins them at the table after putting the vase full of flowers on the coffee table in the living room, Will waste no time in kicking his charm to the max. In between their meal, Will makes sure to compliment Lovely's outfit (which earned him a shy yet pleased blush from Lovely and a jealous kick at his shin from Vincent). He then comments that the spicy steamed seafood dish is his favourite, and when desserts are introduced, Will gently helps Lovely open up by asking about their interests and hobbies.
Will is pleasantly surprised to find one of the many common grounds they share: their love for analysing music.
"I find RM to be one of the most brilliant lyricists in this generation." Will states once his bowl of red bean shaved ice is empty. "His songs are undoubtedly impactful for the youths of today. Not to mention that I'm quite fond of his wordplays."
"You're into K-pop!?" Lovely ask, utterly gobsmacked. Their eyes are wide in shock.
Vincent snorts. "Alexis is a BTS fan. Somehow, she managed to convert Will too."
When Lovely turn to face Will once more, their expression frozen in disbelieve, he adds, "We're planning to catch their concert once the situation permits it."
Will's pop culture admission finally broke the ice. Lovely laughs in delight before launching themselves into an animated conversation about modern music with Will.
However, it wasn't long before their topic suddenly went off the rail when Vincent claimed that he's a better shower singer than Lovely.
"Oh please, Vince, I thought you were dying in the bathroom," Lovely interjects with a roll of their eyes. Vincent splutters at his partner's cruel remark, but Lovely presses on without mercy, much to Will's amusement. He resolutely keeps his mouth shut despite his growing grin slowly making its way up to his face. "Face it, you're tone-deaf. Being a Vampire doesn't magically make you a good singer."
"Those are some fighting words, Lovely. Can you back them up?"
"We can settle this tonight if you want. You and me; we can duke it out in a singing swag off with Will as the judge." Lovey declares with a smirk before they head into the living room. All revved up as if their previous anxiety over dinner had never happened.
"Oh my..."
Vincent turns to Will with a grateful nod. "Thanks for helping them relax. And hey, you don't have to stay if you have some other plans tonight, Will."
Will stares back at his Progeny with a faux, scandalous look on his face, complete with a hand on his chest. "Why, Vincent, where would I be anywhere but here? It's not every day that I get to see you humbled by your lover. Don't think I forget that you were once known as the Playboy of the Solaire Clan."
Shock looks good on Vincent's face. It's cute that he actually forgot how he was before Lovely walks into his life. Oh, Will is going to milk this for all its worth.
"Alright! The system is set up!" Lovely announce from near the TV with a microphone in their hand. "Will, come on! You need to help me prove that Vincent sings like a dying cat. Here, here!"
"Oi, oi! We haven't even started yet!" Vincent rebuke and flits over to grab the spare microphone. "You know what, Lovely? I'm so confident that I'll win this that I'll let you go first."
Lovely grins viciously and accepts his offer. Once Will makes himself comfortable on the couch and signals for them to begin, Lovely open their mouth,
Will couldn't stop smiling as Lovely sings their heart out, and Vincent makes his grand entrance after they're done (singing one of Will's favourite songs in hopes to sway his Sire to his side). Vincent and Lovely are having the time of their life, teasing one another as they sing. Will commits this night into one of his most cherished memories.
*"Dari apa yang aku perhatikan
Manusia mahu senang tapi tak semua mahu berkorban
Dari apa yang mereka katakan
Ada yang jawab jujur tapi selebihnya kuat beralasan..."
However, as the night grows long, Will doesn't have the heart to tell them that they both are horrible singers.
-
Tonight, it's Sam's turn. Will deliver three knocks on his door before Sam swings it open. He looks exhausted, unamused and seconds away from running out of the house.
"Good evening, Sam."
"Good evening, William. Before you come in, can I ask why my Progenies insist on having a karaoke competition tonight? On the night where they knew you were coming?"
Will begins to smile widely. Both he and Sam could hear a heated argument between Frederick and Bright Eyes from the living room.
"No, you can't sing Bambi, Bright Eyes. I won't allow it! You're going to break the windows!"
"Oh my god, would you let me live, Freddy!?"
"We've been over this; you can't sing! Wait. What are you - put down that microphone - "
Music starts to play at maximum volume, and then,
Sam closed his eyes and sighed deeply and in resignation when Bright Eyes began to sing louder to drown out Frederick's shrieking.
**“Feel it like memalla itteon mam wiro
seumyeodeun danbi
dabi piryo eopji
Because you’re my favourite..."
"I don't know what had happened - and I honestly don't want to know - but I hope you're ready to deal with these two tonight."
"Why, Sam, where would I be anywhere but here?"
-
These are the English translations & link to the songs that Lovely and Bright Eyes were singing:
*“From what I can see
People want the good life, but are not willing to sacrifice
From what I hear
Some are honest but others are full of excuses...”
**“Feel it like timely rain that seeps into my dry heart
No other answer is needed
Because you’re my favorite...”

Advent Calendar Day 3 - Smell the Roses
He pulled up his sleeve and thrust his bare arm towards the perplexed sales assistant.
"Go on," he said, swallowing hard, "I can take it."
She brought out a handful of card strips.
"Er .." she began nervously, "... company policy tells us that we're supposed to use these - just in case of allergic reactions."
"Seriously?"
She nodded, picking up the sample bottle, squirting a little bit on the end and offering it to him.
He declined with a wave of his hand and bounced his arm, pointing at his pulse point. That part he DID know about, after catching Lady Penelope dabbing a little bit of her own perfume onto her slender wrist.
It was either that ... or a little dab behind his ear. And that ... was getting a bit TOO personal. Besides, there was a big counter between them.
"Are you sure?"
Erm no, not really. But time was running out and he hadn't bought Lady P anything for Christmas.
"You do realise that it will smell differently on your skin, compared to someone else."
He looked puzzled. He hadn't thought of that. Heck, he was so bloody useless at this.
"If you could tell me what fragrance it is ..." she'd seen this look so many times from frantic and desperate husbands and boyfriends, "... then maybe I could see if it is in stock."
Oh hell no way. He was no snoop, poking around her personal stuff. That wasn't right.
"Um ... I dunno."
O-kay, this was going to take a while. And the meter was running.
"It was in a small antique bottle."
Oh great, it had been decanted and the original bottle probably recycled.
"What does it smell like ... the undertones, overtones. Is it green, floral, spicy...."
Whoa whoa whoa! What the hell? Oh jeez, he was so out of his depth here.
"Er ... I... I dunno. Roses ... maybe?"
That was the only flower scent he knew because of the abundant rose garden at Creighton Ward Manor. He was beginning to perspire.
"What's going on in here?"
John's voice made him jump, and the sales assistant's attention fixed on the tall redhead towering over Gordon. She gave a small, very unprofessional gasp at his striking turquoise eyes. He didn't seem to notice her and leaned over to pluck the card out of her fingers and sniffed it with a grimace.
"Perfume?" He inquired, "for grandma? Don't think that's her scent. She's more of a light lavender eau de toilette than this one."
Gordon felt his cheeks redden and looked away.
"Um ... no .... not exactly."
John looked at him, realisation dawning. He handed back the card with a smile, which made the poor girl almost faint.
"Thank you," he took Gordon's arm and pulled him out of the shop, "afraid you won't find Lady P's perfume here. Or anywhere as a matter of fact. It's a special personalised blend created just for her. It is also a very limited edition, expensive and very hard to find."
Aw damn, oh great
NOT
"Took me a while, but I managed to track down the manufacturer and convinced them to make a small batch."
He handed over a receipt.
"It's in your name, just need to collect it."
Gordon blinked, then beamed his brightest smile. He'd forgotten that they had genius for a brother.
"Gee, thanks John."
