#head in my hands harumasa the man that you ARE

[yuechihua]

(spoilers for Harumasa's agent story!)

Does anyone ever think about how Harumasa purposefully acts in a carefree way about his own illness and hides how serious it is to the people he cares about? How he makes everyone think he's slacking off on purpose, and it's not because of his terminal illness, chronic conditions, or sleepless nights?

A part of it is that he doesn't want to worry other people, and another part of it is that he's afraid of being rejected. His birth parents already left him because of his illness. Harumasa feels alienated, and is afraid of his potential for monstrosity: he could turn into an Ethereal and lose himself, but his spinal fluid was also used for dangerous, experimental drugs. The one person he did care about, his mentor, was taking advantage of him. And when Harumasa learned that there was some element of affection in his mentor's actions, he also learned his mentor was killed precisely because he cared about Harumasa too much.

Despite it all, Harumasa loves people. He loves humanity. He loves Section Six. But there's a part of him that's afraid of being vulnerable and honest. I think he's both afraid of being hurt and hurting others, so he keeps them at a slight distance. For his sake, and for theirs.

i dont know if you still accept harumasa requests but, hear me out on swatching lipstick colors and then give harumasa bunch of kisses on his face while leaving bunch of colorful marks

Harumasa x Fem! Reader

Warning: slightly suggestive,fluff and lots of kissing. Not proofread

Note: i see what you did there and now you are responsible for what's about to happen anon/j. I'm not gonna ignore how the docs tried to correct my snacks to snakes like buddy you sure that is it? I post in the middle of the night like I got some rent due ( I don't even live in a rented house) but anyways i really wanna kiss this man XOXO

He was lazing around on his desk when he heard footsteps enter the office. The footsteps didn't bother him but the sound of sweet laughter surely did. He knows that voice by heart it was you. He quickly looked up to see you walking in the office with yanagi while holding two bags.(Confused puppy mode activated)

He glanced at the brand name and understood it was some cosmetic after all yanagi promised to take you on a shopping spree today. How could he forget? She got to her desk which was in front of him happily greeting him.

“Oh well morning to you harumasa, were you sleeping?” he yawned, stretching back and giving her a lazy smile genuinely feeling happy seeing her first thing after his nap, he peeked into the bag asking. “Well hello there beautiful where ya been?” she was about to answer but got interrupted by soukaku who ran around in circles around her.

“Oh oh oh?! What's in those bags! Is it snacks!” they asked, feeling enthusiastic as ever. “Well not quite but I do have snacks for you, oh and also give this calligraphy brush to miyabi for me please?” She said while handing Soukaku one of the bags from the desk which the oni happily took and ran away then she turned towards a pouting harumasa. “How could you forget about your own boyfriend, I see this is it for me, you don't want me anymore” he said while leaning back on his seat dramatically. She glared at him. “ Of course I'll never forget about my lovely partner, it would be disastrous. Stop being dramatic, I am sure you can wait a little more” she said while turning towards the bangboo who was offering her some papers. He looked at her confused. “What do you mean wait? What are you trying to give? Hello?? Am I being ignored?” She silently collected the papers and went to give them to yanagi. After a long day's work they were walking back home. He was thankful he escaped yanagi’s overtime today after skipping through paperwork.

He walked beside her holding her hand.

He turned to her and asked “ sure you wanna stay over?”

“You don't want me to?”She asked while masking her face with sadness.

“Wait wait wait wait do not attack me like that i would never say no to you!” He said rasing his hands up , she then smiled. “ Well there is no problem” she said happily entering his room as he followed after her closing the room.

“My do you not live in here or something” she said looking around.

“Well i warned you” everything was organised as if someone hasn't visited for two days because of the hospital appointments. She put her bag down and took out a box. “Guess what i have”

He looked at the box “a lipstick pack? Woha that's a whole set” he said while removing his bandana and falling in the bed while she opened the box while humming a tune besides him.” Would you choose a colour for me?” She looked up at him smiling and showing him the box. He thought for a while before picking on the lighter side. She picked the one he choose and tried it on. “Hmm does this look any good?”

Which he replied to “ of course duh i don't think you need it tho” she glanced at him across the mirror. “ I think i have another way to test it” he tilted his head then suddenly she pulled him into a kiss. His hands around her waist while she was on his lap. She broke the kiss and looked at the Mark around his lips.

“Well this colour is too light lemme try another” she said picking out a darker shade then kissing him on his cheek leaving another mark. It's been about 5 mins and 10 different shades with more 10 to go and his face and neck covered in different lipstick marks with his shirt buttons undone. “Hmm I can't find the one I like, you must be bored by now”

He shaked his head sideways and whispering in a low husky voice. “Go on.” She leaned in again leave new marks over his lips and collarbones.

Don't blame him if he sleeps in your arms this will the most peaceful he has ever been. Well he won't blame you either if the marks don't wash off with just water in the morning. He might try to get a sick leave. More like love sick leave.

[ a. harumasa ]

____________________________________________

you can't shake the feeling that your deskmate has been rather... smiling to himself. what's got him in such a mood?

" congrats on your promotion! " a staff member compliments as they hand you, your reports to fill for the day. you can't help but flush a little at the compliment.

yanagi flashing you a small smile when your eyes meet, right. you're part of section six now. after all that training and hard work, it was totally worth getting recognised once in a while. you've saved countless lives along the way to get to where you were.

soukaku sits next to yanagi so the only vacant sit was next to harumasa. he's an okay partner. he gave you tips but you'll still have to be careful he doesn't accidentally mix up his files with yours, leading you to do more paperwork as he naps his life away.

" let's do some patrolling, " you hear harumasa say, next to you as you looked up from your stack of papers.

" huh? "

" we're gonna take a break while patrolling, " he says to the gang as he pulls you up, with yanagi nodding in acknowledgement.

just the two of you. walking past civilians and stores, people greeting you and harumasa. your eyes wander around and land on a couple holding hands.

lovers... have you had one? have harumasa ever had one? he stops to turn back at you, who's looking down at the floor in deep thought. he can't help but laugh and flick your forehead to get your attention.

" what? " you glare at the man as he beams back at you.

" nothing, you just looked adorable, thinking like that. " just then a small child stops infront of you and harumasa.

" mommy, that guy is so handsome. I'd like to marry him! " the child excitedly speaks as she tries to reach out to harumasa, you can't help but stand infront of him, in a defensive manner.

" dear, that guy is already taken by the lady. sorry " the mother pulls her daughter along as she sends you an apologetic smile. you can't help but blush. taken?

harumasa bursts out laughing.

" did, did you think the child was gonna attack me or something? you even had your hand on your sword. " he sniffles between laughter as you pout in return.

" shut up! " you karate chop his head and he completely stops laughing, squating down as he rubs his aching pained head. you followed along and starting patting his head, apologies falling out of your mouth. did you really hit him that hard? sure you can't control your strength at times, especially drunken you, but still. panic starts to set in quickly. you don't even realise harumasa stopped touching his head, allowing you to continue patting his head.

" hey, I'm fine. I deserved that too, I'm sorry " he grabs your hand as you slowly realise how close you two are, you try to stand up but he grabs you harder, pulling you back down. you fall and land on him, he can't help but take this as an opportunity to hug you.

" we-we're in public! " you shout as he pretends to think, humming along as you remained quiet, he won't listen to you anyways.

" I love you, " he says as your ears turn red.

" what? " he pushes your face to face him. his eyes staring deeply at you.

" I love you so much, y/n. you're so cute and definitely weak for my heart. " he pushes your head back to where his heart is. his aggressive thumping for a heartbeat, leaves you blushing more.

you managed to push him and sit up as he follows suit.

" when? "

" when what? "

" did you fall for me... " he has his attention all on you. you longed for romance and after being part of the company, romance slowly escaped your mind. all you think about is saving people and beating up the hollows.

" you saved me too, " when you look at him, he flashes you a smile. saved him? when?

" when did I save you... " you mumbled as he ruffles your hair.

" all the time, just being next to you, I'm saved from boredom and- " a slap was sent to his face. he looks up to see yanagi staring down at him.

" you said you're going for a break, not bullying y/n. " she glared down at him as he laughs bitterly, bullying? he wanted to pour his love out for you.

you did save him from a hollow once, and you're always looking out for him. he does long for you like how you long for romance. when he heard of your promotion, he was sparkling everywhere. he wanted to make a good impression for you, maybe you don't remember him from your rookie days where he fought alongside you so he started completing reports on time even doing extra, he goes all out and even more during fights. just so his name gets spread around and hoping to reach you, all you should hear are his good deeds.

" harumasa... I don't get how someone like you can love someone like me but... im willing to try dating you, " yanagi turns to look at you, a fondly smile pastered on her face. harumasa hugs you tight as you pat him, hoping he'd let you go.

" you're punished for running away, you're going to complete 20 more reports before you can clock out, harumasa. I hope your lover can motivate you to finish on time. " yanagi turns on her heels, making her way back as asaba sents you a smile once more before pulling you along.

I LONG FOR ROMANCE TOO, especially for someone like lighter 😞😞😞 he so silly BUT harumasa GRRR when he got slapped in the virtual world and miyabi wanted to slap him too 😭😭😭

[harumeowsaboo]

ft. gn! reader, fluff, romantic relationship, not beta-read. do i know how to write him? no. am i going to stop? not yet. do i even know what i'm writing? also no.

Harumasa always liked to go with the flow, planning every little thing was overvalued in his eyes. So, you had grown used to expecting something strange or sudden after moving in with him. It was never harmful, and most times were definitely fun.

However, finding a very familiar-looking Bangboo sitting on your boyfriend's lap when you came home was definitely unexpected.

"Heey! Look at the new addition to our family. Cute, isn't he?" The agent took the rabbit-like robot's paw and moved it to wave at you. "Say hello to Asaboo!"

"...Is this related to the surprise for your teammates that you mentioned a few weeks ago?" Curious, you took a seat next to him, examining the little robot.

"Spot on! I got one for myself, they said it should act a bit like me, too. Aren't you happy to have two Harumasas now? Many fans would dream of this, you know?"

You rolled your eyes at his playful tone, reaching over to carefully pick up Asaboo and put him on your lap. The little thing was undoubtedly adorable, leaning into your touch when you began to pet one of his ears.

Your boyfriend watched for a little before a pout appeared on his lips, seeing his Bangboo get all of your attention. Now, he wasn't an overly jealous man, but... Come on! He was right there!

"Doooon't you think you're giving too much affection to him? What about your poor, sick boyfriend who has been working so hard lately?" He twisted his position to put his head between you and the robot, looking up at you with sad eyes.

"Aren't you working so hard these last few days because Yanagi got tired of how much you've been slacking off?" You raised an eyebrow at him, reaching over to continue petting the little rabbit.

"Whaaaaat? Me? Slacking off? I would never." In a quick show of his dexterity, Harumasa snatched the Bangboo from your lap and plopped his head on your thighs, the robot now sitting on his stomach.

He took one of your hands, guiding it to his head with a smirk on his lips. "There, you can pet me and I'll pet Asaboo, isn't this better?"

"Hmm, I don't know... I think Asaboo might be softer, and much more adorable..." You said, tapping your chin with a finger as if you were thinking really hard about it.

Harumasa gasped in mock hurt, resting a hand over his heart. "How could you... Ouch, I think... I think my heart is actually going to break. Oh, to die by being heartbroken, betrayed by my own partner... Ah, I can see the light..."

Letting out a snort at his antics, you ran your fingers through his dark hair, the fake hurt expression completely disappearing from the agent's face when you finally gave him what he wanted. True to his word, he began to pet the Bangboo's head in response.

"You're such a drama queen."

"But you loooove me!"

You shook your head with a smile, laughing when you felt one of Asaboo's paws start to pet your arm since it didn't reach your head, turning it into some kind of weird, petting circle.

Longing from the Office - Harumasa x Reader

Summary: Section 6 play wingman for a struggling harumasa Warnings: So much sighing and sitting in chairs, probable abuse of as, maybe ooc, errors Word Count: 2.1k Notes: I'm trying to improve my writing guys so sorry if its bad but also not sorry. Drop a request or don't.. its fine...

Harumasa's longing for you manifested in many ways. Some of which were more embarrassing than he liked to admit. You hardly seemed to notice though, even if he was practically attached to your hip like a puppy.

"I'm going on my lunch now, Tsukishiro." You call out, pushing your chair out and putting on the coat hanging off the back. Despite not even scratching the surface of your work, your eyes are already stained, and you feel the throb of a headache coming on. A break is definitely in order.

"Alright—" She was swiftly cut off by a voice chiming in.

"Yeah, we'll be going on break now, Tsukishiro!" Her eyebrows raise at the man, who was, just moments ago, sleeping.

"Oh? I hope you realize your nap has been cutting into your break time." Her face was serious, but on the inside, she almost wanted to laugh at how obvious he was being. It's something she noticed for a while now, how he glances at you from time to time when you are doing paperwork, completely unaware. The way he perks up when he hears your name in conversation.

"I was just resting my eyes." 

"So you admit you were taking a break?" 

He scratches the back of his neck. "Aha… no?"

She sighs, pinching the space between her brows, "If you're going to take a break now, all of your paperwork better be turned in by the end of the day."

"Whoa, really? Thanks, Tsukishiro! You won't regret this!"

She totally would, but she would regret it more if she didn't allow him to go. Watching him make a fool of himself while you were blind was torture. She'd rather lose a few hours of sleep completing his paperwork than watch another moment.

"Ah, Asaba, we're going on break at the same time? What a funny coincidence."

She physically facepalms, causing both your heads to snap her way. "Ahem… my apologies, there was a… bug. Don't mind me."

"Yeah, pretty crazy. I mean, what are the chances, right?" 

"It's almost like it was fate…" His heart practically skips a beat when you look at him and let out a giggle. "Well, just a silly thought! I'll be going now. Have fun on your break!"

He could only get out the start of his sentence before you promptly turned away, rushing towards the exit. Once you are gone, he lets out the loudest whine of his life. His upbeat posture deflates as he stares at the exit, jaw open. He only closes it when he hears the click of heels walking towards him.

"That was rather painful to watch." Yanagi places an awkward hand on his shoulder as some sort of means to comfort him.

"If you cringed by just watching it, imagine how I feel. I mean, seriously! How much more obvious do I have to get?"

Normally, Yanagi would not concern herself with her colleagues' personal lives, but the sight of his obvious pining and your obliviousness was giving her early wrinkles. "I find myself wondering the same thing." 

Harumasa groans, running his hand down his face in frustration. He turns to Yanagi, places both of his hands on her shoulders, and shakes her lightly. "You see it too? C'mon, you gotta help me!"

She squints her eyes, looking at him, and Harumasa shakes her more, letting out a crybaby 'Pleaseee.' She had already planned on helping him. Otherwise, she would not have walked up to him, but she can't lie; it was sort of fun seeing him fumble so much. Perhaps you were rubbing off on her.

"First of all, stop shaking me." He drops his hand faster than she's ever seen him move when overtime is on the line. "I'll help you—"

"Thank you, Tsukishiro! Seriously, you're the-"

"I wasn't finished," she clears her throat. "I'll help you, but you have to promise me a full week of your undivided attention. In other words, no slacking and no naps."

He deflates, letting out another loud groan. "I should have known it wouldn't be that easy…" His chair rolls backward as he slumps down, throwing his arm over his eyes. "It's hopeless… I'm going to die all alone."

She rolls her eyes. "Fine, you're lucky I'm feeling generous I'll cut it to three workdays."

He immediately brightens up, his posture straight, and he bats his eyelashes at Yanagi. "Really? You'd do that for little old me?"

"No. I'm doing it for Soukaku. She also wonders when you would finally confess."

"Oh… well, what's the plan?"

She immediately zeroes in. Harumasa follows suit, with a serious look on their face. Yanagi slams a piece of paper on his desk.

"Here's what I was thinking."

-----

When you return from lunch, you are greeted with an unusually focused Harumasa and no Yanagi in sight. You sigh as you walk towards your desk; the piles of papers seem never-ending. Unfortunately, the only way out is through.

A few minutes into the first page, you hear Harumasa let out a loud sigh. "This is sooo hard." He whines. You look up at him to see him already staring at you. "You gotta help me with this! I just can't seem to remember!"

"What do you need help with?"

"I cannot, for the life of me, remember what… time! Our last hollow investigation began.."

"It began at-"

"No! I mean, can you write it for me?" he coughs out. "I suddenly feel really sick." 

"I suppose if you are not feeling well… bring it here."

He scoots out of his chair, walking slowly with an exaggerated stagger. "Ah, I feel really dizzy. Can I rest on your shoulder?" He doesn't wait for an answer, rolling the chair from the empty desk next to you.

Your eyes widen. "Dizzy? Should I call in the doctor?" He places his hand on top of yours, stopping you from picking up your phone.

"No, no, I'll be fine." His head hesitantly creeps down, teetering on whether he should commit or not. Ultimately, he does. "I just need a moment."

"Oh…" A quick blush rose to your face as you grabbed the paper, which was… blank.

"Asaba, you—" 

You turn to look at him, expecting to be met with the view of his hair. Instead, you are greeted by his face, which is inches apart from yours.

"Yes?"

"You must be super sick! You gave me the wrong paper!" You fuss, pressing a hand to his forehead. "I'll inform Tsukishiro!"

"No, there's no need," he sighed. "I'm feeling better now." He gets up, walking back to his desk, head hanging low.

"Asaba…" you call out, tone a bit more serious. He turns around to face you, a hopeful look in his eyes. "You forgot your paper." 

"Right."

-----

"That didn't work?" Yanagi asked, her eyes wide.

"No! They just wanted to call you!"

"Hm… Well, they seemed worried; that's a start."

"I guess.." He slumps.

"Perhaps you should take a more direct approach. How about asking them on a date?"

"I practically did yesterday! Sharing a break with someone is a sacred thing, y'know!"

Suddenly, a cheerful voice chimes in, a bit muffled from a full mouth. "Why don't you give them candy!"

He looked at the Soukaku and then at Yanagi, who was deep in thought, muttering under her breath.  "Yes, that could work." Yanagi finally says, pushing up her glasses. "Why don't you give them a gift?"

"That's perfect! You guys are so smart; what would I do without you?" 

-----

The following day, you are greeted with a bundle of violets on your desk. It was certainly a strange gift. There was no note, just the flowers wrapped in heart-shaped plastic. You look around the room, noticing it was empty.

Maybe a fan left these? It wouldn't be surprising, considering they sometimes stand outside the building waiting to catch a glimpse of Section 6, but if it was from a fan, how could you know if it was for you? They definitely would not know which desk belongs to whom unless they were in the building. 

You shiver, throwing the flowers in a nearby bin. Then you grab your phone and call Yanagi. Not today, stalker.

What you didn't know is that Harumasa was watching in the nearby printer room. A card in his hands.

-----

"And then they threw them away! Right in front of me!"

"Hm, that is troubling…"

"I'm beginning to think they just don't like me."

"Cheer up, Harumasa!" Soukaku smiles, hugging him. Yanagi stood in front of the desk, her eyebrows furrowed.

"I don't know what to do anymore." He exhales, standing up.

"Have you tried telling them directly?" Everyone snaps their heads to the source of the voice and is met with a pair of dark ears.

Harumasa's head drops back down, defeated. Walking to the door in an exaggerated slowness.. "Nah, I think this is it. I can take a hint."

-----

"Asaba likes you." You sputter on the water you had been drinking, causing your shirt to get wet.

"Miyabi!" You nervously laugh, drying your shirt with napkins from a nearby table. "I'm sorry, what did you say?"

"Asaba likes you."

"Oh! Well, I like him too." Walking back towards your desk, you smile. . "Speaking of which, where is he? I haven't seen him or the others at all today." 

"No. Asaba likes you as more than a friend." She stops right in front of your chair, and you have to look up at her for the first time.

"Me too! He's pretty much my best friend!" Turning away from her, you gather a few papers left on your desk. "Miyabi, I have to go run these to another department. If the others come back, let them know that's why."

Miyabi watches as you walk by, letting out a sigh of her own. She know knows why Yanagi and Harumasa had been sighing at you these past three days. This was more difficult than she expected. Usually, a simple approach does the trick; less is more, after all.

"Well, that's it. I'm officially done." The other three members walk out from around the corner, a crushing look on their faces. He falls back on his chair and Miyabi is surprised it hasn't collapsed by how many times he has done that. "I'm sorry, Tsukishiro, but I'm gonna have to break our deal to sleep my sorrows away."

Soukaku speaks in a tearful tone. "Harumasa…" 

"It's okay, Soukaku.. Sometimes things just don't work out how we want them to."

She grips his hand and jumps up with determination. "No! You can't—" She pauses, tears welling in her eyes.

"Miyabi, have you seen the other pa-" You stopped in your tracks. Everyone was surrounding Harumasa's desk, sullen looks on their faces. 

"You can't give up your crush on—" She manages to get your name out before a hand on her mouth silences her.

All four of the members stare at you with shocked expressions. No one dares to speak up or move, too worried they might scare you off.

You stumble over your own tongue, a deep blush rising to your face. "Asaba has a crush on me?" and before Harumasa has the chance to ruin things for himself, the three other members speak up.

"Yes!" Their tone was almost annoyed. After all these attempts this is what it took? They aren't one to smoke but they'd be lying if they said they didn't need a cigarette right about now.

"Harumasa, is this true?"

He lets out a deep breath, "It is." Alright, here it comes; he's going to be rejected and—

"I like you too!" 

"WHAT?" You had to be kidding him. This whole time, he was trying to get your attention with gifts and outrageous gestures, and all it took was for you to overhear a conversation? He's pretty sure you just triggered a heart attack. Maybe he should retire, yeah.. that's what he'll do

"I like you too, Harumasa. I have for a while now."

"No way! You turned down all my advances!"

"You didn't make any advances?"

"Yes, I did!"

"No?"

"Yes? Remember that time I asked to go on break after you did?"

"I thought that was just a coincidence."

"What about the flowers?"

"You didn't leave me any flowers."

"I left violets on your desk, and you just threw them away!"

"I thought they were from one of those creepy fans."

"Miyabi literally told you how I felt!"

"How was I supposed to know she meant it romantically?"

Harumasa resisted the urge to tackle you. You were seriously spiking his blood pressure with your absurd reasoning. How could someone be so incredibly smart and dumb at the same time? He's not sure the gods could even answer that.

"You're so lucky you're you. I'd be running for the hills if it was anyone else."

"Does that mean you guys are dating now?" Soukaku asks, not a single thought behind her eyes.

You look at Harumasa, and for the first time, he knows what he must do. "Let's try this again. I have liked you forever, and now I know you do, so… can we date? Pretty please?" He asks that question with such enthusiasm that you're sure if he had a tail it would be wagging

"Of course, silly! All you had to do was ask!" Something clicks in Harumasa once he hears you say that.

Oh. You sly dog. You knew this whole time, didn't you?

[vxlenst3in]

suggestive, kept pretty humorous, you work for section 6 as a researcher in this, short drabble, he is a loser Asaba Harumasa, who just trots into your lab whenever he pleases. you could be doing all sorts of dangerous experiments right now, but he simply doesn't care. harumasa just lays his head on your shoulder, as he watches your actions. though, he's been visiting more often lately. especially after his shift ends. it was unusual for him. normally he'd leave as early as possible, but now? the raven haired man is even staying with you way past your own end of the shift. and maybe, just maybe, you'd be more productive if he wasn't there. his teasing remarks, his fleeting touches, his not-so-innocent actions? you'd be lying, if you said that it wasn't distracting. it was frustrating, in a sexual way. but you were 100% sure, he was too, frustrated. the poor man would never get past all the teasing. the definition of all bark, no bite. he, so badly, just wanted to pin you against that damn lab table, get on top of you, feel you all up, and show you there's truth behind his words. every day he'd tell himself, that today would be the day, and when that day was over, he'd just say it again. no shame in a man motivating himself, right? let's say, it took a couple of weeks, if not months, for you to finally sit on that lab table - not quite pinned down yet, but it works - with him standing between your legs. also not on top of you, but that would come later, surely. his hand rubbing up and down your thigh - his definition of feeling you up, as he tried to put on his most seducing face aswell. thank god the light was dim, otherwise you'd probably be able to see the sweat running down his forehead. "finally got you where i wanted." "asaba, we rea-" "harumasa, sweetheart." "ah, harumasa, we really shouldn't-" "but you want to, no? and so do i. sooo?" there really is no winning with that man.

harumasa x afab!reader

genre: slightly suggestive, we are back on the boy failure train

summary: reciprocity is the key to keeping all 'professional' relationships afloat

wc: 1.3k

note: I’m working on the requests submitted (plus my own ideas) and will have them queued to post over the next week or so! Thanks for the love ❤️

“Take a picture, it’ll last longer.” You drawled as you propped up on your elbows, sunglasses tipping down your nose with a grin. 

The waves that rolled into Port Elpis had made for a perfect slow, rocking motion for a nap in the sunshine. It would have been a shame to not take advantage of it you had thought as you shimmied out of your top and stretched out across the deck of your boat. 

It was a sun kissed day in heaven in your book, the gentle crank of your fishing pole and the distant song of the gulls working their magic to lull you into a state of peace until you heard the telltale thump of feet down the pier in your direction. 

Harumasa sucked a breath between his teeth as he shook his head, fighting off a smile in the name of professional courtesy. “Tempting offer, but I’m on the clock so I’ll have to decline.” 

You shrugged, pushing your glasses back up as you folded your arms back behind your head. “Suit yourself, law man.” 

“You say that like your office isn’t right down the hall from mine.” 

You groaned, plucking the half empty beer can from your side, waving it in the air like a trophy. “I’m trying to conveniently forget that right now, Asaba.”

It was one of your coveted days off, and you wanted nothing more than to forget everything related to hollows, H.A.N.D, and Section 5 in favor of a cold beer and a basket of greasy fries from the stand at the parking lot by the marina.

“I’m gonna give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you need something from me, and not that you get off on watching girls sunbathe.”

“You’d guess right, but it’s not that I don’t appreciate the view,” he corrected as he stepped off the pier and onto the boat, footing unsteady with the bobbing of the waves that lapped at the sides of your vessel. 

He passed a Manila folder into your waiting hands, watching as you indiscernibly skimmed the contents behind your sunglasses. He crouched down beside you, head cocked as he watched your facial expression shift unpleasantly.

You snapped the envelope shut before raring back and smacking him across the chest with it, the force of your strike with the rolling of the boat dropping him from his heels to his ass with a oof!

“I told you I don’t do that kind of thing anymore. I’m a reformed—,”

“Member of society and a public servant, yeah yeah, but you are the only one who can help me with this!” 

“We have a whole department dedicated to cyber-related cases, Asaba.” 

“Okay fine you are the fastest way to get this done, but I’m practically begging on hands and knees here! Come on (y/n), we’ve been friends for years now. I wouldn’t ask you to do this if there was another way.” He rolled his lip out like a kicked puppy, but you could see the sincerity in his eyes even if he refused to fully break from his cheery, coy attitude. 

You sighed, head thumping against the deck as you mulled it over. Truthfully you had your mind made up already, you both had a healthy exchange of professional favors in your histories, and what was one more? What you wanted was honesty, because if he was asking you to stick your neck out it was the least he could do.

He had taken to pacing the deck now, your silence more disconcerting for him than your difficult attitude was. 

“This isn’t officially related to work is it?” 

He was silent, arms crossed as he stared out over the rolling blue waves, the tails of his headband fluttering in the same wind that tousled his hair. 

“No, it isn’t.”

Good enough, you weren’t one to pry too deeply. You already felt like you were a little more tuned into his personal issues than most others just from similar favors you had done for him in the past. 

“I’ll help you.” 

He whipped around, trademark smile curling his lips. “I knew you’d—“

“But you have to help me out first.” 

You stretched your arms above your head with a yawn, back arching invitingly off the deck. “I have no intention of leaving this deck, so be a dear and grab my laptop from inside—that’s not the favor though.” You quickly added as he hurriedly went to fetch your computer per request.

“What’s the favor then? Gonna ask me to scrub barnacles off your boat?” 

You snorted. “Nah, it’s just that on a day this pretty it’d be a shame to miss out on even an ounce of sunshine.” As you spoke your hands drifted from above your head, dragging slowly down the side of your neck to your chest as your shoulders bowed. 

You didn’t miss the way his eyes locked onto the trail of your fingertips as they drifted lower, ghosting over the contours of your stomach before slipping into the waistband of your shorts. Your hips lifted just enough to slip them past the curve of your ass, shimmying the fabric down till it hooked over an ankle. You kicked them off in his direction with a grin, watching him fumble to catch them before you slung a bottle of sunscreen at him as well. 

“Haru dear, be an angel and help me get my back.” 

You certainly weren’t expecting company when you had picked one of your…flimsier swimsuit sets to wear as you lounged on the water today, but the thick way he swallowed as you rolled to your stomach, propped on your elbows and drew your hair aside had you grinning like a lovestruck teenager. 

Shit, if he kept it up you’d have to invite him over more often. 

“I don’t have all day here~” You chided, twirling your hair around your finger as you peered at him over your glasses coyly.

“R-right, sorry,” he tossed your shorts aside, white-knuckling the sunscreen bottle as he hit his knees beside you. 

“Be gentle with me, Haru~” you cooed, relaxing your posture as you rested your chin on your crossed arms. 

You couldn’t help the way you tensed when his hands met your sun warmed skin, the cool temperature of the sunscreen on his palms a stark contrast. You could feel the callouses on his hands scratch at your skin as his fingers flexed hesitantly, kneading into the muscles along the curve of your spine. 

“You’re pretty good at this, I’d about pay to have to put your hands on me like this.” You mused aloud, feeling his hands pause  just shy of the tie on the back of your swim top as he cleared his throat. You rolled your head to the side.

“Don’t forget to get under the straps good, don’t want any unnecessary burn lines.”

His hands drifted higher, sliding under the straps of your swimsuit top and across your shoulders, the pressure of his fingertips akin to a massage as he worked the sunscreen into your skin despite the tremble in his hands.  You sighed dreamily as his hands retracted.

“Alright, you’re uh, you’re good.” 

“Perfect, thank you for that.” You hummed happily before you hooked your legs around his waist and shifted your weight, throwing him flat against the deck as you pinned him, one hand braced next to his face as you leaned over his proned form.

You tsked, drawing his chin up with your fingertips, enjoying how blown his golden eyes were with your proximity. “Haru, you need to get outside more, your little cheeks are awful red.” You cooed, watching his skin flush down his neck. 

You settled yourself back on his lap, wiggling your hips as he squirmed beneath you, your hands teasing the buttons of his shirt apart as you loosed the straps of his chest plate. Your hands splayed across his pectorals, as you leaned in close. 

“This could take a while,” you whispered, lips almost grazing his as you took care to grind against his lap. His breath hitched, hands latching onto your hips. 

“So how about you join me~?”

ZZZ Headcanons

Help this game has taken over my free time I love these characters sm <3 Billy Soukaku and Ellen my beloved

Nicole: has a not so secret hobby of bedazzling anything and everything. It’s a real problem in the Cunning Hares apartment, nothing is safe from pink rhinestones and stickers

Anby: cracked at rhythm games to an alarming degree. Can do a 2 person extremely hard DDR song all by herself

Billy: I don’t know how they did it but they programmed an android with autism. Has his own version of a skincare routine which is basically just maintenance on all of his tiny mechanical parts. Can also gain power multiple ways, including solar power. The apartment complex where the Cunning Hares live had a blackout once and everyone used Billy as a personal charging port. Nicole promised to pay him in Starlight Knight merch.

Nekomata: cuts her own hair and offers to do it for other people. DO NOT trust her when she says she’s good at it

Grace: did gymnastics as a kid which is why she’s able to pull off a ton of backflips and flexible maneuvers in battle

Anton: uses actual cement to keep his hair spikes in shape. Koleda caught him in the act once and instead of chewing him out, she decided to apply some to her own hair and now they’re cement combover gang

Ben: is completely vegan and loves chilling at hot springs a lot. Still sleeps with stuffed animals btw

Koleda: I’m making it canon right now Koleda is trans and you can’t do shit about it. Also has welding as a hobby and made most of her accessories from scratch

Corin: when not in Victoria Housekeeping Co uniform, is a Jfashion junkie. I’m talking super dedicated Lolita fits, menhera inspired clothing, the whole shebang. She ofc designs a lot of her own stuff like her bear backpack and is also responsible for a lot of the accessories Victoria Housekeeping Co wears (Rina’s bows, Ellen’s shark jaw head and neckpieces, Lycaon’s eyepatch and tail straps). She also has a massive crush on Ellen and is too scared to admit it

Rina: has a fur allergy and can’t keep animals around. Which also means she’s allergic to Lycaon. She has to take so much Zyrtec before clocking in but has such a good poker face that Lycaon has no idea. Ellen knows tho

Lycaon: specifically wears the heeled boots and has his odd posture because he’s self conscious about his digitigrade legs, he thinks they’re unsightly for a butler of his standing to have. He also tries to encourage Ellen to wear a long maid dress like Rina does to hide her tail.

Ellen: coincidentally falls into a lot of shark stereotypes. She loves seafood, has to constantly be fidgeting or she feels like she’ll go mad, and the kicker, she gets frenzied around blood, or if the thing she’s fighting puts up a struggle. Corin accidentally cut her hand while repairing her saw blade once and both Lycaon and Rina could barely hold Ellen back once Corin began bleeding. Ellen feels awful for scaring the already timid girl. Corin secretly thought it was hot and would die on the spot if anyone knew that

Soukaku: despite being a huge foodie this girl cannot cook for shit. Is also physically cold to the touch and during the summer her coworkers will ask her to hold their drinks because they’ll stay cold. Soukaku always secretly sneaks sips every time they do this to her.

Miyabi: has the worst sleep schedule known to man. Sometimes you’ll find her awake at 3AM and conked out by 4PM, other times she goes to bed at 8PM and wakes up at 4AM. It’s inconsistent and irregular and a gamble trying to contact her outside of work because she might not even be awake

Harumasa: GAY GAY HOMOSEXUAL GAY. Also pretty cracked at chess and other strategy games. Is also a major old fashioned guy and doesn’t own a lot of modern technology. He’s not into retro or old stuff, he just doesn’t like new stuff

Yanagi: her glasses are fake. When she was younger she needed them, but her vision had naturally gotten better over the years, so she now wears contacts, but for some reason still insists on wearing her glasses. Loses them constantly during battle.

Lucy: even though she was forced to play piano as a kid, she really wanted to be a sporty girl and play stuff like soccer and baseball. Now she has the freedom to take part in the sports she likes and watch them surrounded by the people she likes

Piper: insanely picky eater to the point it drives Lucy up a wall. Is also picky about a lot of other things, like how different fabrics feel, different comfort levels of chairs and beds, girl is a complainer and will always find something to complain about

Lighter: has a side gig as a tattoo artist, has really stable hands too

Soldier 11: has 5 younger brothers, a younger sister, and 2 older siblings who she doesn’t see super often. Has divorced parents who also liked to adopt, which is why she has such a huge family. Her younger brothers love it when she comes home and plays secret agent military with them

Seth: can’t drive. That’s it send tweet.

Qingyi: is outwardly dismissive of meditation tricks and hacks and tips but utilizes that shit in private ALL the time.

Zhu Yuan: shares the vegetables she grows in her garden with all her neighbors. Is also a REALLY good cook to the point people have encouraged her to potentially consider a different career path

Jane Doe: the rat girl has pet rats go figure. But in all seriousness she’d die for her little guys. She has a white one named Cocaine and a brown one named Tobacco and a gray one named Crystal Meth. She thinks the names are hilarious and every time she introduces the rats to other people their facial expressions are priceless

Sick Leave

Zenless Zone Zero - Wise x Asaba Harumasa

A/N: To think this is the first thing that I managed to finish after all this time... well, it is what it is, but I think I like it.

Summary: Is 'tickled to death' a good reason to ask for a day off work?

Word count: 1304 words

Wise blinked in confusion, still trying to process the absurdity - or reasonability - behind Harumasa’s explanation. He sat back down on top of the other man’s lap; his hands, once poised to strike, now hesitating, clenching at the couch beneath them.

“But-”

“If you really care, proxy, you can’t,” Harumasa insisted, even crossing his arms behind his head before laying back down. “Doctor’s orders,” he added, making Wise pout slightly.

How could such a good, priceless intel be wasted just like this? Be discarded like a spam e-mail or like a troll post on the Inter-Knot? Still, Wise would probably die out of regret if he actually ended up hurting Harumasa because of something like that.

Seeing the upset frown on Wise’s face, a lighthearted chuckle broke the silence between the two men. “I’m sorry ~,” Harumasa cooed and Wise could swear that there was some mockery hidden in those words, “I’m such a disappointment, ain’t I?”

“Don’t say that,” the proxy sighed, shaking his head before resting his arm on the couch’s backrest, “it’s just hard to believe.” 

Too hard, actually, to the point that Wise could cross his heart and hope to die on it. Asaba Harumasa, elite agent, part of the armed forces under H.A.N.D., member of the Hollow Special Operations Section 6… couldn’t, for medical reasons, be tickled?

Wise heard this absurd merely moments ago. He and Harumasa were watching a movie (yes, cuddling together on the couch, but that’s not important *caham*) and, on the screen, one character tickled the other. A brief, short-lived moment, mostly irrelevant to the plot itself. Still, that scene lingered just enough inside Wise’s mind and sparked a question, the question.

‘Are you ticklish, Harumasa?’ Wise had mumbled with his cheek still pressed on top of Harumasa’s chest, his words barely distinguishable from gibberish. ‘Yes, but don’t do it,’ was the other’s plain, calm answer.

Oh, but why shouldn’t he? Why shouldn’t he tickle Harumasa to tears right there and then?

As if controlled by some sort of bigger, incomprehensible force, Wise felt the need to tickle Harumasa at that exact moment. The agent’s words had barely made it inside WIse’s brain and he could already picture all sorts of scenes - Harumasa laughing, blushing, hiding his giggling face behind his hands…

He had to do it!

The proxy, then, moved his hands - his fingers trailing up both Harumasa’s sides at the same time, lightly grazing and wiggling against his skin through the thin fabric of his shirt - and, seconds later, wise could already feel the grip around his wrists, stopping his hands in their tracks and holding them away from the other man’s body.

“I asked you not to, proxy,” Harumasa repeated sternly, his golden eyes leaving the movie aside to look down at Wise’s face.

“Why? Are you that ticklish, Harumas-”

“Because I will get hurt.”

Maybe it was the dead-serious tone in Harumasa’s voice or the (fake) concern in his eyes when he said that, but Wise’s mind went blank. He expected a plea, an angry facade or even some silly excuse… but ‘get hurt’?

The agent, then, explained that his body couldn’t stand being tickled - not because of its apparent sensitivity - but because of his health’s condition. 

“My lungs are too weak to let me properly breathe while I’m… under such stress, not to mention my heart could literally explode trying to keep up with it!” It did sound serious, a bit convincing, even. 

Wise did think about arguing back, saying how Harumasa could tear all sorts of horrors from the hollows apart effortlessly, and, therefore would be able to stand a bit of tickling, but fighting ethereals and protecting citizens sounded like a much better use for his energy than getting tickled just to please the desires from a single proxy’s heart.

“But what if I am gentle?” Wise suggested, back to present, still trying to find a way into it.

Harumasa’s only answer was a sigh. “That’s not how it works,” he mumbled, softening his tone to add to the dramatic charge of his act, “before we notice, my skin will be covered in bruises, I’ll be coughing like dying man and my heart will be as good as a broken bangboo left-” 

“Okay, okay, I get it…” Wise interrupted, waving a hand close to his chest in the hopes of sparing himself from any other gruesome detail of the consequences of tickling Harumasa. Still, that was starting to sound a bit… too much.

“I’m glad you understood it, proxy,” Harumasa smiled, pushing his body up for a brief moment just to wrap his arms around Wise’s neck and drag him back down with him right after. “I really wish I could experience such a thing, but you know how my life is extra diffi- p-prohoxy?!”

 Before Harumasa’s act could come to an end, a strained chuckle interrupted his line. With widened eyes, he looked down at Wise’s face - inches away from his - as if hoping that the source of the sensation that just crept up his spine was a mere accident.

“Yes?” Wise grinned slightly, his chin resting by the top of Harumasa’s collarbone.

Harumasa could feel his throat closing, the pressure inside his mouth as his teeth gritted, and his muscles tensing up while Wise’s thumbs rubbed into his lower ribs. “I-I thohought you- ahAH - w-would spahare me of suhuch pain!”

“Wrong,” Wise clicked his tongue, feeling encouraged by the reactions he was managing to draw out of the other guy.

It didn’t take more than a couple seconds for Harumasa to understand that Wise managed to see through his act. That whole discourse may have fooled Seth and Soukaku, but it definitely didn’t seem to work on Wise, the agent noted mentally.

“W-Wise, wahahait! I was seheherious! AHah, plehease, let m-me explahahain!” Harumasa whined, one of his hands reaching for Wise’s while the other latched onto Wise’s shoulder, trying to push him away. None of these attempts, however, had the desirable outcome.

Harumasa couldn’t help but smile - genuinely, this time - as Wise’s fingers wiggled and traced his ribs and the sides of his chest, searching for any ticklish spot like a carrot program collecting data from a hollow. “Your body seems to be handling it pretty well, huh?” Wise teased, as cheeky as possible.

“It’s nOHOhot!!” Harumasa whined, kicking his feet on one end of the couch and pressing his head back on the other. “W-Wise, plehehease!! AHAhah! ~”

“Wait, are you ticklish here too?” 

“W-wahait, not thehEHE-”

“...”

[The next day]

“Asaba-kun, you don’t expect me to really approve another leave this week, do you?” Yanagi sighed, looking at the papers her colleague had handed her. “What are these symptoms even supposed to indicate? Cheek and abdominal pain, labored breathing…” 

“Y-you don’t need to read it, vice-captain, just sign it” Harumasa groaned sheepishly, standing next to her desk, “I don’t even need it to be long this time, it’s just so I can get checked and make sure my condition isn’t getting any worse.”

Yanagi looked at him with the corner of her eyes, over the lenses of her glasses. She wasn’t convinced. “Please, vice-captain! It’s been like this since- since yesterday! It’s hurting so bad that I had to put up a battle this morning just to come here and talk to you!”

“...sigh, I hope you already have the compensation for this in mind, Asaba-kun. But, of course, you may go see a doctor.”

“Thank you, vice-captain! You’re the best!” Harumasa cheered, springing back into life as if cured just with the idea of getting a day off. 

He could hear Soukaku asking Yanagi about his leave while he walked out and an unpleased groan coming from the vice-captain, but it didn’t matter. If anything, Wise was the one to blame this time, not him.

That Fateful Night

Wise x Asaba Harumasa (fanfic)

Synopsis: Both men are in love with each other, but neither of them has the courage to make the first move. Until one fateful night when Harumasa makes a plan.

Word count: 5,5k

Content warnings: explicit sex scenes, bottom Harumasa, top Wise, fluff, happy ending, set after Harumasa's agent story

I hope you like it!

It's tonight. Wise has been invited by Asaba Harumasa to a small party with his coworkers, and it's tonight. He can feel his stomach burning and he's feeling kinda nauseous, but he tries to breathe deeply while he waits for Harumasa to show up — the guy promised to pick Wise up, even when Wise insisted he could drive there.

After Wise saved Harumasa from that incident with Kirishima, they've grown pretty close. They often hangout at Lumina Square to have snacks or go to the cinema to watch movies together. They've even watched movies inside of Wise’s own room. And Harumasa has been asking Wise to accompany him to buy medicine at the pharmacy or to pretend to be his family member during calls with his doctor, claiming he trusts Wise and feels safe around him.

Wise thinks tonight it's one of the situations where Harumasa needs to be safe with him, but his sister Belle thinks otherwise. She claims Harumasa is into Wise and wants to take a step further.

“Wise, believe me, no one takes someone to these kinds of social gatherings as friends. Especially when he insisted on driving you there. He's totally into you!”

“I told you, Belle, this is just one more of those situations where he needs my support because he's nervous. That's all.”

“I highly doubt that. He flirts with you all the time. He hugs you frequently and touches you a lot when talking. He laughs a lot when you're around him. Hell, he's even been inviting himself to watch movies with you inside your room, and you really think he just wants to be friends?!”

“If he really liked me like that, he would have made a move.”

“Maybe he's afraid of scaring you away? Or maybe he has been making moves and you haven't noticed it. And, honestly, that seems possible, given how clueless you are.”

“Ouch…?”

“I'm not kidding, bro. I bet he's gonna make a move tonight. And if you push him away, I'll kill you.”

“How much do you want to bet?”

Before Belle can answer, they hear a knock on the door. A single knock, nothing more. That single knock is very characteristic, and has Wise jumping nervously while he feels his stomach turn upside down.

“It's him!” Belle says. “Ok, you've put on cologne and combed your hair nicely. You look decent.” She adjusts his shirt and hair, then punches him lightly on his shoulder. “Good luck, lovebird! He likes you, trust me!”

Wise rolls his eyes at his sister.

Belle has been trying to be their cupid for months now, ever since Wise told her about his crush on Harumasa. Or rather, ever since she lowkey forced him to tell her. Wise had been daydreaming about dating the executive officer frequently, and Belle noticed he'd been acting distracted, so she was worried and insisted on asking him what was happening, until he eventually had to admit it.

Wise is convinced Belle is just saying Harumasa likes him back because she wants to be nice. She worries about Wise because he's been a loner ever since his teen years, and hasn't been successful in finding a boyfriend. Yep, she's definitely just trying to be nice.

His phone vibrates. It's a message from Harumasa saying he's outside.

“Ok, I'm leaving now. Goodbye, Belle.”

“Goodbye and good luck! You got this!”

Wise opens the door and is surprised by a wonderful view. Asaba Harumasa isn't dressed in his usual work uniform. Nope, tonight he's wearing a brown suit and doesn't have his usual yellow headband on his head. He's still wearing a choker, though.

He looks stunning.

The gray-haired man can feel his face heating as Harumasa approaches him with that damned beautiful smile on his face. Wise extends his hand for a handshake, but Harumasa ignores it and hugs him instead.

Harumasa smells nice. So nice that Wise gets distracted in the hug and forgets about the world around them. He just wants this moment to last forever.

They stay there, hugging each other for a while until Wise comes back to reality and pulls apart.

“Ahem... Good evening, Harumasa.”

“Hey, Proxy!” The executive officer wraps his arm around Wise's shoulder. “You're looking good!”

Wise laughs awkwardly. “Um, thanks. You look good too.”

Harumasa smiles in a satisfying tone.

“You ready for tonight? As I told you, it'll be just a boring social gathering. Sorry to drag you into this, but you know the drill, I have no one to come with me and it'd be lame to go alone.”

“It's alright, I can handle it.”

I can handle anything if it means I'll be with you for a while, Wise tells himself.

“Cool! Let's go before it's too late, then,” Harumasa says as he puts his hand on Wise's lower back, guiding him to his car.

***

A moment earlier… [Harumasa's POV]

Harumasa has had a crush on Wise ever since he woke up on that hospital bed after he almost died and Wise was the first person he saw.

Harumasa has no family. No one to be with him during hospital visits. Still, Wise was the one who held his hand as he woke up there.

And, god, Wise is so extremely kind. He's genuinely a good person. He supports and comforts Harumasa no matter what. Harumasa knows can always count on him for anything. No wonder he feels so safe around Wise.

Harumasa likes Wise so much it hurts.

It hurts because such a nice and decent person like Wise does not deserve someone like Harumasa in his life. Someone who won't live longer, and who will definitely hurt him. Wise deserves all the best in this world.

Still… his heart and body speak louder than his rationality, and he can't help himself. He's been flirting with Wise for months now. And it irritates him a bit, because Wise seems to be so clueless. He even invites himself into Wise's room, and they watch movies together on the sofa, with their arms touching and everything…

Is Wise not gay at all, or…?

No, that can't be it. Harumasa's gaydar never fails. He’s seen the way Wise blushes around him, how kind and welcoming he is to him. He wouldn't hug Harumasa so often if he was straight, let alone allow Harumasa to get into his room.

Yep, Wise definitely likes him back.

So tonight, Harumasa has decided: at some point, he will take Wise to an isolated place and will make the ultimate move; a move so obvious that not even clueless Wise will be able to let it slide.

He just hopes his intuition is right, and Wise does like him back. If Wise responds positively to the move, Harumasa will take him to his apartment. For this plan to work out, Harumasa needs to drive Wise to the party in his own car. This means he cannot let Wise drive to the party by himself.

And he successfully managed to convince Wise to let him pick him up. Good. One step closer to victory.

Now, he has to take care of his appearance. He has spent a considerable amount of money on this stupid brown suit, so he sure hopes Wise will like it. He decided to ditch the usual headband he wears, it doesn't really go well with the suit. The choker, though… it also doesn't really go well with the suit, but unfortunately he can't ditch it. No, he can't risk people seeing the ugly scars on his neck.

Besides, he's wearing a cologne he thinks smells nice. He hopes and prays Wise will like all of his effort.

He looks at himself in the mirror and sighs. He has done his best, now it's up to the universe to make his plan work.

***

They arrive at the party. There are some people Wise recognizes, like the other members from Section 6. They spot Wise and Harumasa and greet them.

“Harumasaaa!!!” Soukaku comes running. “There are so many snacks here! Look!!”

“That's nice, Soukaku,” he kneels down and hugs her.

“Good evening, Asaba.” Yanagi says. “And Wise. I had a feeling Asaba would bring you.”

“Really?” Wise asks, surprised.

“Of course! He talks about you so often. He said—”

“Ahem!” Harumasa interrupts.

Yanagi seems to let out a faint “sorry!”

Then, Miyabi and Zhu Yuan come to greet them as well.

“So, you guys are dating now, right?” Wise said. “I'm happy for you.”

“Thank you,” Miyabi replies. “And I see you and Harumasa are also—”

“AHEM!!” Harumasa interrupts again. “Me and my friend Wise congratulate you on your relationship, girls.”

“Oh, so you're still friends…” Miyabi says.

“Still…?” Wise asks.

Before anyone else can say anything, Harumasa speaks up. “Anyways, Wise. Would you like a drink?”

“Hmm. A juice, maybe? I don't really drink alcohol.”

“I didn't expect that! I'll join in drinking juice, then. I don't drink alcohol either. You know, with all the medicines I take, I can't really do that, hah.”

They keep chatting and drinking. Wise doesn't really know how to talk much and spends most of the time just nodding and smiling. Harumasa, though, who usually is a very chatty person, is awfully quiet. Not only that, he actually seems nervous and stressed out, fidgeting the whole time and shaking his legs.

Is he okay…? Wise wonders.

When the conversation quiets down, Harumasa takes the opportunity to finally speak.

“As much as I'm enjoying this conversation,” he said, with a polite smile on his face. “I’m afraid you're gonna have to excuse us for a while. We’re gonna take some fresh air, but will be right back.”

Wise wonders who Harumasa was talking about when he said “we”, but before he notices, the other man is taking his hand and leading him out of the gathering. The sudden touch of Harumasa's hand sends a shiver down Wise's spine. His hand feels cold, but nice. He can feel his face heating a bit as they walk towards the elevator.

“Where are we going?”

“To the rooftop,” says Harumasa after a deep sigh of relief. “I just want to be away from these people for a little while,” he rests his head against the wall and closes his eyes.

At this moment, Wise realizes they're still holding hands. He clears his throat and runs his free hand through the back of his head in slight embarrassment.

As they get out of the elevator and enter the rooftop, Harumasa lets go of Wise's hand and stretches his arms.

“Ah, alone at last,” he says, then shoots a smile at Wise, making him feel butterflies in his stomach.

Harumasa looks marvelous under the moonlight.

“So, um…” Wise says, clearing his throat. “Are you okay? You seemed a bit stressed back there.”

“Yeah, I'm fine, I just… hate these social gatherings so much,” he looks at Wise with a smile and takes both of his hands. “That's why I brought you with me. I feel calmer when you're around. Thank you for keeping me company.”

Harumasa rests his head on Wise's shoulder, which makes the gray-haired man shake a little from nervousness. He can feel Harumasa's breath against his neck, and it feels so, so good.

Before he realizes, he's already running one of his hands through his friend's hair.

“I'm glad you feel better when I'm around you. I actually share the same sentiment. Being with you feels nice.”

Harumasa wraps his arms around Wise's waist, and they fall into an embrace.

“Does it? Hm, I'm happy you feel the same.”

Suddenly, Wise feels warm, wet lips landing a kiss on his neck. It startles him, making him jump a little. Harumasa notices the sudden reaction and backs off.

“Oh, sorry. Didn't mean to startle you,” he says, with an awkward chuckle. “It's okay if you don't want—”

“Don't be sorry,” Wise interrupts him, pulling Harumasa close again. “I apologize. I was just caught by surprise,” he strokes the other man's hair, while feeling his own heart beat so fast it feels like it might actually jump straight out of his mouth. “You can continue if you'd like. It feels good.”

Harumasa chuckles. “Feeling needy, are we?”

“Don't tease me,” Wise whispers, now caressing his friend's cheek.

The dark-haired man plants more kisses on Wise's neck; slowly at first, but eventually he intensifies them. Upon hearing Wise's faint moan, he then starts licking and slightly sucking his neck.

“Harumasa, this… this feels good…”

“Didn't take you for the kind of guy who enjoys neck kisses,” Harumasa teases.

“Shut up.”

Wise takes the other man by his chin and kisses his lips.

What am I doing? Wise thinks. And where the hell did I get the courage to do this?

As Harumasa tilts his head to deepen the kiss and buries his hands on Wise's hair, the gray-haired man feels his brain short circuit. When their tongues meet, Wise finally finds out what Harumasa's kiss tastes like. It tastes bitter. And it is so amazing. He never wants to stop it.

So Harumasa does indeed like him back. And Belle's guesses were right, she wasn't just trying to make Wise feel better. All those times Wise spent daydreaming about kissing the executive officer are now becoming true; not like he expected it would happen, but still, it's burning him up from the inside out.

He runs his hand through all of Harumasa's body. Both men keep getting their bodies closer and closer to each other, as if they can never get close enough. Before they realize, they are passionately making out as if their lives depend on it.

As if his body has lost all its commands, Wise pins Harumasa against the wall behind them, lifting him up by his butt. Harumasa immediately wraps his legs around Wise's waist. Slowly, Wise starts rubbing his growing erection against Harumasa's, paying attention to the other man's reaction. When his friend starts to faintly moan under the kiss, Wise smiles and rubs faster. Soon, they're dry humping like little rabbits, with Harumasa breaking the kiss to moan a bit louder on Wise's ear.

“Fuck, this… this feels so good, Wise. Keep going, don't stop… ah…”

The cries of the other man made Wise feel like he had died and gone to heaven. He would never expect Harumasa's feelings for him to be reciprocated, let alone hear him beg for more sexual intimacy like that. It almost feels like a dream.

Harumasa groans in frustration as Wise stops humping and puts him down on the floor, making the gray-haired man chuckle at how needy Harumasa is.

He kisses Harumasa again and grabs him by his ass. “You're so perfect, Haru,” Wise says in between kisses.

Harumasa breaks the kiss and guides Wise's hand towards his belt. “Can you…?”

Wise gasps. “Are you sure?” He looks around to make sure no one is watching them. “What if someone sees us?”

“No one will see us, they're too entertained at that lame ass party. It's ok if you don't want to, though.”

“No, I want to, I just…” Wise sighs. “I wasn't expecting to see a dick tonight. Especially not your dick,” he looks away in embarrassment, hoping he doesn't sound pathetic right now. “I didn't… didn't expect you to reciprocate my feelings. This is all happening so fast…”

Harumasa laughs. “Seriously, Wise? I've been flirting with you for god knows how long. You didn't notice I wanted you to bang me? Hah, you really are clueless.”

“I thought you were being nice to me…? Look, I'm not really experienced in this kind of stuff, okay?”

The other man laughs again, making Wise blush more and more by the second. Harumasa pushes Wise by his collar and kisses his lips tenderly. “Well, now you know I like you, Proxy. So, are you gonna suck my dick or not? It's ok if you don't—”

“I will,” Wise interrupts. “I'll gladly suck you dry, if that's what you wish.”

Without a moment to waste, Wise unbelts Harumasa's pants. He slowly starts masturbating the other man, then fastening his pace gradually.

At some point, Harumasa lets out the most erotic moan Wise has ever heard in his life, and he could feel himself dying right at that spot.

“Ah, gosh, it feels so much better when you do it, Wise,” Harumasa whines.

“God, Harumasa, you're gonna be the death of me if you keep sounding like that.”

Wise smirks and kisses Harumasa senseless. He can feel his friend squirming under his touch, and it feels so nice.

“You're so beautiful,” Wise whispers in his partner’s ear before finally getting down on his knees.

Harumasa gasps as he feels Wise's warm tongue licking his tip. This is too good. He covers his mouth with his hand to not moan so loudly as Wise takes his dick in his mouth, sucking slowly at first and gradually fastening the pace. To his surprise, Wise can deepthroat him easily, making his legs tremble.

“Wise, you're so good at this, oh my god…”

The gray-haired man suddenly stops sucking and grabs both Harumasa's hands and puts them on his head.

“Harumasa, fuck my face,” Wise begs.

God only knows for how long he has been wanting to say those words.

“Oh, are you— are you sure? What if you—”

“Please, Harumasa.”

Harumasa can feel his stomach turn upside down at Wise's begging.

“Okay, then. If you insist. Please tap my leg twice if you need me to stop.”

Wise nods and takes a deep breath to get himself ready.

Harumasa slowly inserts his dick inside Wise's mouth. First, just the tip, and then he gradually inserts more and more, still surprised by how deep Wise can take him.

He then starts fastening the pace, closely paying attention to his partner's reaction. Before he realizes, he's already facefucking Wise senseless. He can feel Wise moaning against his dick, the vibration making it even better.

Harumasa tries to hold back his moans so no one can hear him, but he still lets out a few moans here and there. This is too much. Wise’s mouth is so warm and wet, he's taking his dick so well, and looking down at him and watching him take him makes Harumasa reach his climax faster than he thought he would.

He comes inside Wise's mouth, his legs trembling as he can barely keep standing. Wise swallows Harumasa’s cum immediately, which makes everything even hotter.

Wise stands up and helps Harumasa clean himself with a few napkins he had in his pocket. He then opens his bag and takes a few sips of water from his bottle.

After Harumasa gets dressed again, Wise hugs his partner while he catches his breath.

“Thank you,” Wise says, kissing his friend's forehead. “You're amazing.”

“You suck good dick for someone who's allegedly inexperienced.”

Wise laughs. “I have my secrets.”

They keep hugging for a while until Harumasa breaks the silence.

“What about you?”

“Hmm?”

“You've pleased me. Don't you want to be pleased as well?” Harumasa says, lightly pressing Wise's dick through cloth with his hand.

Wise gasps in surprise. “Oh, um, I'm fine. No big deal. As long as you're satisfied, I'm okay.”

“That's cute,” Harumasa says after leaving a little peck on Wise's lips. “But I don't want you to feel left out…”

Wise can't deny that being sexually pleased by Harumasa is indeed a good idea. He wants it. Actually, he yearns for it really, really bad.

But…

“It's just that… we've been on the rooftop for too long. Someone might come after us to see how we're doing.”

“They won't, I always sneak out on these kinds of gatherings. People are used to it.”

“Fair enough. But… now you've sneaked out with me. People might be suspicious.”

“Oh, so you're afraid they'll find out we're together?”

“I don't have a problem with that! I just don't want you to become a subject of gossip.”

“I don't mind if I do become one,” Harumasa laughs. “But, well, if you're uncomfortable being here, we can go to my apartment. I can tell them I'm tired and leave.”

Wise thinks for a while. If he goes to Harumasa's place, he'll probably spend the night there. It would be nice to sleep with him, it's something he has wanted for a long time.

“Alright. Let's go to your place.”

***

The two lovebirds have barely stepped inside of Harumasa's apartment and they're already making out intensely, clumsily bumping into the furnitures and walls, laughing while they try to avoid stepping on the cat on the floor. They even forgot to take their shoes off, but neither of them seem to mind. They're just focused on each other right now.

When they get inside Harumasa's bedroom, they make sure to close the door so the cat doesn't intrude.

As they're taking their clothes off, Wise is still processing everything that is happening. It's unbelievable. He had thought tonight would be just a lame party he would attend with his unreciprocated crush, but now, he's inside his crush's own room, kissing him and taking his clothes off, probably about to fuck him. Or be fucked by him. He doesn't mind either.

“By the way,” Wise says. “Are you a top or a bottom? I'm fine with either, to be honest.” He realizes what he had just asked and freezes. “I— I mean, I'm not implying we should have anal sex, but, y'know, just in case—”

“Oh, boy, I'm strictly a bottom. Nope, no topping for me. It's too much work.” Harumasa runs his hand's through Wise's bare chest and kisses his neck. “And I do believe you should fuck my ass tonight, sir,” he whispers in Wise's ear and bites it lightly.

Wise breathes nervously. Oh, this man will drive him crazy. Just the thought of being inside Harumasa makes his legs tremble and his chest get heavy.

“As you wish, executive officer.”

Wise helps Harumasa get rid of the rest of his clothes and takes his own clothes himself. Although he notices there's something still missing.

“Won't you take your choker off?” Wise asks.

“Oh…” Harumasa replies, touching his choker with both hands. “I'm… I'm fine!” He smiles. “No need to take it off!”

“Are you sure…? It might get uncomfortable.” Wise kisses his partner’s jaw, slowly sliding down to his neck. “Besides, I want to have full access to your neck,” he whispers, reaching his hand towards the choker.

The other man slaps Wise's hand, startling him.

“Wise, I've told you before why I use this choker,” Harumasa says in a serious tone.

The gray-haired man suddenly realizes.

“Oh… oh! Right, right. The scars on your neck. Of course,” he pauses. “But, you know… I don't mind your scars.” He gets closer to Harumasa and caresses his cheek. “I think you look perfect the way you are.”

For the first time, Wise watches Harumasa blush quite a bit intensely.

“Th-thanks. That's nice of you,” Harumasa says. “But… I don't know…”

“Baby, it's ok if you don't want to take it off. I just want you to know you're safe with me, okay?” Wise kisses the other man's cheek and hugs him. “There's no need to be ashamed of yourself in front of me.”

Harumasa closes his eyes and takes a deep breath.

“Alright. Since you put it like that…” He takes the choker off and tosses it on the nightstand beside the bed, suddenly feeling embarrassed by his exposed neck.

Wise smiles and gets closer. “Good boy,” he reassures him. Then he turns Harumasa around and kisses the scars on the back of his neck, making the man gasp as he feels Wise's tongue on the sensitive spot.

“You are marvelous,” Wise's whispers in his ear. “Now, let's get started, then.”

Harumasa nods and quickly grabs the lube and hands it to his partner.

“Get on your hands and knees for me, baby boy.”

Harumasa excitedly does as Wise commands. Wise then inserts his lubed index finger inside his partner and immediately goes towards the prostate. A pleased, satisfying moan from the other man indicates he's reached it. He smiles and starts circling his finger around the entire perimeter of the prostate, fastening the speed and intensifying the pressure gradually.

“Does this feel good?”

“Y-yes… ah, it feels so good, Wise… please, keep going…”

Wise smirks and inserts a second finger. He keeps circling the prostate until he feels Harumasa is comfortable enough to handle a third finger.

“Wise…” the dark-haired man cries out. “I'm ready. Please, just put your dick inside me.”

Wise can't help but let out a brief laugh. “You're so cute when you beg for more.” He takes his fingers out and pours lube on his cock. “Lay on your back, please, honey. I want to look at your beautiful face while I fuck you.”

He immediately does as Wise commands.

“Are you sure you're ready?”

Harumasa nods. “As I'll ever be.”

Both men moan in tandem as Wise slowly puts his dick in.

“Ah, Haru, you're so tight…”

Wise makes sure to watch for Harumasa's reaction while he takes his cock and starts slowly thrusting.

“I'm not made of glass, Wise,” Hurumasa says. “You can thrust harder.”

Wise laughs briefly. “As you wish, sir.”

He does as Harumasa asked and starts thrusting harder and harder gradually, satisfied by his partner’s needy whines and moans. He then leans down to suck on the man's neck.

“Ah, fuck yes, you're taking me so well, good boy,” Wise whispers in Harumasa's ear, making sure to bite on the sensitive spots of his scars.

“Wise, hnng, this is so good… I'm so close… ah..!”

A few more thrusts and there you have it, Harumasa cums, for Wise's excitement.

“Come inside me, Wise… please…” Harumasa grabs Wise's hair as he feels the bites on his own neck intensify.

The begging alone is enough for Wise to reach his climax, and before he realizes, he releases it inside of his lover, both men groaning as it happens.

As he catches his breath, Wise takes his dick out and falls on the bed, hugging Harumasa until both of them come back to their senses.

***

Wise and Harumasa are bathed and well rested in bed, both enjoying each other's embrace. Wise is wearing the pajamas that Harumasa carefully separated for him beforehand.

“Just to be sure, I'm gonna stay the night, right?” Wise asks.

“Sure you are. Unless you want to run away from me in the middle of the night.”

“Of course not. I'd love to sleep with you,” he kisses Harumasa's forehead. “I just need to do something first.”

He sits down, grabs his phone and immediately sees a message from his sister.

[Belle]: Wise, are you okay? It's getting late and there's no news from you.

He feels slightly bad for forgetting about her.

[Wise]: Hey, Belle. I'm fine. I just have to let you know that I'm gonna spend the night here.

He gets a response almost immediately.

[Belle]: Huh? Here where?!

[Wise]: Harumasa's place. I can send you the address.

[Belle]: HUH

[Belle]: WHAAAAATT????

[Belle]: I FUCKING KNEW IT LMAOOO I WAS SO RIGHT

[Belle]: I won the bet, lil bro. You owe me one!

Wise rolls his eyes.

[Wise]: Sleep well, Belle. I'll see you tomorrow.

He tosses his phone away and goes back to Harumasa's embrace.

“Was it Belle?”

“Yep. Same old Belle as always.”

They keep chatting under the bed sheets, both too awake to sleep yet.

“How did you find out you were gay?” Harumasa asks at some point.

“Umm… It was in my teenage years. Every boy around me would drool over girls, talk about how hot they were and masturbate to them. I just couldn't relate, not even if I tried really hard, watching porn and stuff…” Wise sighs. “I thought it was a lack of libido on my part. Guys would call me gay as an insult because I was more focused on gacha games than getting a girlfriend, but I'd just say it was nonsense. Then… I had an online friend who was gay and was telling me his experience. I told him I related a lot to him. We had a brief online romance… I talked to Belle about it. She is bisexual, and she told me her experience of liking all genders, and I couldn't relate. So yeah, that's when I knew.”

He intertwines his fingers with Harumasa's, who is listening attentively.

“How about you, Haru?” He kisses the knuckles of Harumasa's fingers. “How did you know you were gay?”

Harumasa sighs. “I'm afraid it was much later than you. You know I had lived isolated from the world as a kid, due to my illness and stuff, so I didn't have time to think about my sexuality. I didn't think I would live much longer anyway, so yeah…”

He starts to avoid eye contact. Wise gets closer to him and kisses his forehead, as if trying to comfort him.

“Anyways. I got into college. There was this guy there, my classmate. We were close friends. I thought it was normal to like this friend in a way that I thought about him all day and wanted to see him all the time and got nervous around him.” He laughed. “I was so naive. And then one day, the guy kissed me, and I… I didn't want to back off? I actually liked it. We had a sort of situationship for a few months, and it was good while it lasted, but…”

Harumasa frowns, closes his eyes and takes a deep breath.

“I didn't tell him about my illness. And I didn't want to. So I ghosted him and we grew apart. I thought he would dislike me if he knew. I mean, who in their right mind would date a guy that won't live longer?” His voice starts to tremble.

“Don't say that,” Wise intervenes. “No one knows how much time we have left. You're already a miracle for living this long, and I know you're gonna live a lot more. I'll be by your side, ok?” He kisses Harumasa's lips and hugs him.

“I really like you, Wise,” Harumasa says. “Actually, I like you a lot.”

Wise smiles and caresses Harumasa's cheek. “I really like you too.”

“But…”

“But…?”

“I don't want to burden you. I'm not gonna live longer, we both know that. I'm gonna turn into an Ethereal one day, and you're gonna be hurt. I don't want to hurt you…”

Harumasa's voice cracks and a tear falls down his face.

“Hey, shh,” Wise says, hugging him again. “You’re not a burden, and never will be.” He kisses the other man's forehead. “The future be damned, I want to be with you now. Let's not worry about what happens after, alright?” He cups Harumasa's face with both hands and stares directly at his eyes. “You deserve to have a happy life, Harumasa. If you like me, then be with me. Live happily.”

They stay in silence, hugging each other, with their legs intertwined, only hearing Harumasa's sobs. Wise starts humming a song, and after a moment, Harumasa seems to calm down.

“By the way,” Harumasa finally speaks again after several minutes, with his usual cheeky tone in his voice. “The guy I mentioned earlier, my former classmate? You actually know who he is,” he giggles.

“What? Do I?” Wise giggles as well, happy to see his partner fine again. “Who is he?”

“Seth.”

“Seth…” He thinks for a while, then realizes. “Wait, you mean Seth Lowell?! THE Seth Lowell from PubSec? You dated him?!”

Harumasa bursts into laughter.

“You must be kidding me,” Wise says.

“I'm not.”

“Asaba Harumasa!!!”

The executive officer can't stop laughing. “Whaaat? Are you mad?”

“I'm not mad, I'm just surprised! I'd never imagine—”

“What, you think a guy like me couldn't pull a hot catboy with my irresistible rizz?”

“It's not that! You are irresistible after all… I'm sure you can pull any guy. I'm just… baffled, that's all.”

“Hah, don't worry. It was a while ago, and he's apparently got eyes on that Jane girl right now.” Harumasa caresses Wise's hair. “And I've only got eyes on you.”

Wise smiles and kisses the other man. “I'm glad.”

“What about you? Any past relationships you want to talk about?”

“Nah… I've never had serious relationships. Just one night stands here and there with guys I met on dating apps.”

“Ooh, it's good to know I'm the first one.”

“Wait… so we're in a relationship now?”

Harumasa frowns. “I mean… you don't want to?”

Wise laughs and hugs him. “Of course I want to, silly!” He kisses Harumasa on the lips again. “You're so perfect. I'll gladly be your boyfriend.”

“Good. It's settled, then. As of today, I'm officially dating the manager of Random Play video store from Sixth Street.”

“And I'm dating the hot and irresistible executive officer from Section 6. Wow, I'm so lucky. What will your fans think?”

“They can think whatever they want, I don't mind. As I said, I've only got eyes on you.”

They keep chatting, laughing and kissing into the night, until they eventually fall asleep in each other's arms.

Asaba and Seth's Domestic Life

These two aren't leaving my brain anytime soon. Even if my posting will be even spottier than usually until like March.

A slice Asaba and Seth's secret life together.

Would anyone be interested in weird original works I have written with under A/B/O obsession?

https://archiveofourown.org/works/62527027

Seth was pretty shocked when, just as his lunch break starter, he was told someone wanted to see him. So he abandoned his lunch in the breakroom fridge and went to see who it was. Fully expecting his parents wanted him to move back home. Hello no, he was not being driven to Lumina Square precinct by a private driver. Or moving to one closer to home.

He was fine with how everything was going on in his life. Even if he somehow ended up living with Asaba Harumasa. One of the ever popular members of Section 6 of HAND. Even secretly rating as of recently. Sharing a bed, cuddling, kissing and all that.

Asaba wouldn’t be dumb enough to visit him at work? Even with how closer the metro station was he’d be easily spotted and recognised. Not to mention Asaba couldn’t just take the metro. Not without a disguise. Not without being jumped by his fans. No, Asaba was reckless but not stupid.

But when Seth got to the lobby three he was. To his credit dressed in casual clothes. Tight jeans, loose hoodie. One of Seth’s? And a cap. Was Harumasa Asaba smiling at a receptionist who no doubt recognised his eyes once his dark tinted glasses were off.

“O, and here’s my friend,” Asaba chuckled, clearly relieved to be able to distance himself from a clear fan. “Man, can’t catch a break even here,” he chuckled as Seth groaned.

“Why did you come here?” The officer asked, looking around nervously. He knew his brother was visiting Lumina precinct today.

“Chief Miyabi gave the whole Section a few days off today since we finished the paperwork to do with you know what, I was bored and hungry so I decided to come and ask you if you’d like to have lunch together,” Harumasa explained cheerfully.

“My brother's here today for inspection since you know, after that whole thing with Bringer no one will explain to me, PubSec gotta look good or something so head commissioner Lowell is doing rounds around all the precincts under him. Including us,” Seth whispered furiously.

Asaba hummed. “Well, more reason to leave for lunch, no?” He grinned, putting his glasses on and pulling his cap down to better hide his hair and headband.

Seth sighed but quickly let Zhu Yuan know he'd be leaving for lunch and followed Asaba to a far too nice restaurant. Well, at least it would be somewhat private.

As Asaba dealt with his - their - reservation Seth looked around and paled. What was Random Play's manager Wise doing here? With tall handsome wolf thirein as well? A date? Maybe. If that man was WIse’s type then even more respect to the manager.

Luckily Saba's reserved table was in the other corner of the restaurant. And mostly hidden from the rest of the restaurant by some plants. Seth made sure Asaba sat with his back to said plants so no one would spot him. Charms of dating a famous person. Seth himself, despite being a Lowell, wasn't that recognizable. Well, outside certain circles but those people didn’t go to Lumina Square often.

“Order anything you like, I’m paying,” Harumasa cheerfully grinned as he put his phone on the table along with a small pill case. “We’re still on call in case of emergencies,” he sighed, glaring at the offending device.

“At least you’re not stuck behind a desk all day,” Seth sighed and rolled his shoulders. Asaba was right, leaving the office was nice. He was certainly less stressed without a chance of his brother walking in as he was having lunch. Handmade by Asaba because of course he had that kind of time in the mornings. Well, he also liked to have a healthy lunch with him and constantly assured Seth doing two lunches instead of just one was no bother. Well, Seth did pay him back by making dinner unless they were both working late. Then he’d pick something healthy on his way back home.

How awfully domestic, he realised that he thought about it now. Well, they were dating, Even if in secret to save Seth from the wrath of Asaba’s fans. And Asaba from the Lowell family. Even if as long as they didn’t know about his health they probably wouldn’t mind. Asaba was a well known and respected public servant after all.

In the end Seth ordered something with meat and solid side and veggies, while Asaba went for a fully vegetarian option. To try something new, he said. Not that Seth judged. Food was food and it wasn’t his business what anyone, especially his boyfriend, ate.

They ate and Seth complained how no one would explain what exactly happened at port Elpis. Quietly.

“It’s all top secret. I wouldn’t be shocked if your commander was the only person in the whole precinct who knows, I had to sign a whole pile of papers binding me to silence,” Asaba shook his head with a sad smile. Seth just sighed and dropped the topic. Instead, he enjoyed a rare lunch with Asaba.

After lunch Seth was back to the precinct. He separated from Asaba outside to not cause any more ruckus. The receptionist looked a bit bummed Seth walked in alone but was very nice as he passed by. Grand. All Harumasamasa fans in the precinct will now annoy him about his boyfriend.

And it wasn’t the last bad thing. Right as lunch break ended a meeting was called. And Seth’s whole section had to be there. And his brother was there, not talking or anything, just sitting and smiling ominously.

First bad thing, all officers' addresses had to be in the system. They were to get paperwork to fill and submit later. Two, getting time off for heats or ruts needed proper paperwork as well and not just supervisor’s approval. In all honesty the first new rule was worse. It would be in the system he lived closer to HAND headquarters than the precinct.

In a fancy apartment building his salary couldn’t afford. Even with a flatmate. He knew they should have picked something more low-key but Asaba liked how secure this building was. And considering S6’s fans' zeal Seth had to admit he was right.

He’d live. Depending on how much he had to write in those papers.

When he returned to the desk he had a text. Asaba had an emergency call. Would likely be late. Seth sighed and wondered if there was enough in their fridge and pantry for tacos. He might as well drop by a grocery store. They were running low on everything, even staples. And his rut was near…. What a grand timing.

When was Asaba’s heat? He was pretty sure it too was soon. Eventually they’d sync up but they weren’t there yet.

So he slogged through his paperwork merely nodding as the same office worker from earlier, the front desk girl dropped the paperwork for the address registration for him. No overtime today.

As he was leaving for the day someone, a familiar voice, called after him. “Seth! How are you doing?” As he turned his brother was there, with his usual cold smile.

“Good, just finished for the day,” Seth said stiffly and his phone pinged.

“Not going to check that?” His brother asked.

“It’s just a text, it can wait,” Seth shrugged. Man, this was awkward. And everyone was staring.

His brother hummed. “Well, I won’t be keeping you,” he chuckled. He absolutely knew Seth was hiding something. “Say hello to Harumasa from me,” he waved, already walking off to talk to chief Zhu Yuan and a few other precinct higher ups.

Seth released the breath he was holding and left the precinct before Lethe could change his mind about ‘brotherly bonding’ mother insisted they do more of.

Once out he checked his phone. Wise had sent him a photo of a black cat. He texted a thumbs up and went to the grocery store before boarding the metro back to his and Asaba’s swanky apartment.

When he walked in, lights were on. Cat was sleeping on the armchair he could see from the door. And he could see Asaba’s wet hair over the back of the couch. “Already back?” He announced himself before kissing the top of his mates head.

“Mhm, just got back long enough for a fast shower,” Asaba sighed, he looked exhausted. Legs propped on a pillow on the coffee table, arms sprawled as TV played on mute. “How was work?”

“Boring, Lethe caught me as I was leaving, asked to pass his greetings to you,” Seth I sighed, not looking forward to his paperwork. “We got whole bunch of personal paperwork added to show PubSec is doing something about corruption.”

“Like? Might be like something we have at HAND,” Asaba was a bit more awake with Seth present and dragged himself to sit in the kitchen as the thiren unpacked the groceries.

“For one, my address, for two more paperwork for heat-leave,” Seth groaned. “And precincts fanclub of Section 6 will probably be very nice to me now. Next time call me and wait outside?” Seth rambled and Harumasa just hummed in agreement.

“Well, it does sound like the myriad of paperwork we have at HAND,” Asaba chuckled.

Seth was done talking about work and changed the topic to food. Asaba was very much in the mood for Seth’s tacos. After they ate they watched TV as Seth filled his paperwork. Including the leave request.

“I’ll have to grab one for my heat,” Asaba sighed. “I think we synced up,” he grinned and leaned in to kiss Seth.

“We were pretty close to begin with,” Seth smiled and kissed back. Once the papers were done they cuddled some more before going to bed.

The next day Seth had to go to work early so he just kissed sleepy Asaba, assured him he’d be fine lunch-wise and ran off.

Asaba had a lazy, late morning. After breakfast, while sipping his coffee (low caffeine and so on) he stared at their stacked, matching lunch boxes. It felt weird in his stomach that Seth didn’t have his usual home made lunch.

So he got dressed. Made one, and went to Lumina Square precinct. He didn’t enter, remembering Seth’s request from the last day. Instead called his favourite officer.

“Yeah?” Seth hummed, Asaba could hear clacking of a keyboard. Still stuck with paperwork? Asaba almost felt bad.

“I’m outside, with lunch for my favourite officer,” Asaba chuckled, glancing about in case anyone overheard his voice. Today he added a facemask to his disguise. He was no Miyabi or Tsukishiro or even Shoukaku. He did not enjoy fans swarming him.

Seth was soon out. “You didn’t have to,” Seth sighed as he accepted the bag with the lunch box.

Asaba shrugged. “I was bored and needed an excuse to get out a bit,” he chuckled. “And I have some of my paperwork to deal with,” he added.

Seth nodded. “Good luck with that,” Seth waved him off.

Unknown to them, a certain front desk employee was having a smoke break and caught the interaction. Correctly guessing Harumasamasa made lunch for the plain officer Lowell. Them being friends who occasionally got lunch together was one thing. Harumasamasa making and bringing him lunch?

That was cute.

And honestly, now that she thought about it. The two would look cute. Nodding she internally congratulated her fellow officer. Get him for all of us officer Lowell, she thought before returning to her break.

The next day Section 6 was back in the office and as it turns out had to work with PubSec.

A crime syndicate was using a hollow as a hideout. They did it more and more often as of late. So Section 6 split into three groups together with officers to search the hollow for said hideout. Chief Miyabi and Chief Zhu Yuan with few more officers as one. Tsukishiro, Shoukaku and Qingyi and also some officers as second and Harumasa and Seth and rest of the officers as third.

The second squad found the hideout and just before lunch everyone left to formulate a proper plan of attack. All the while fans of Section 6 looked from behind several layers of yellow tape. The official story was that a transport truck got lost in the hollow and couldn’t be located.

And the planning was done over a fast lunch.

“Why do you two have matching lunch boxes?” Shoukaku asked as Seth and Harumasa sat next to each other.

“Coincidence,” Asaba said instantly with a wide smile as he sneakily took some medication. Using Seth to shield himself from the fans.

“But even the contents match,” the young Oni pressed.

Seth blushed slightly as Asaba shrugged. “Coincidences keep building up, don’t they?”

“Yeah,” Seth managed and distracted himself with food, focusing on Chief’s presenting the strategy.

By the evening the whole crime operation was busted and field officers could go home to rest after a long time in a hollow. Seth stumbled tiretedly to a dark apartment. Asaba wasn’t home yet.

Not that Seth or the pizza he got on his way back had to wait long. Asaba soon walking in loudly whining that overtime was the worst.

“My time off for the heat got approved,” Asaba said triumphantly. “Yours?”

“Too,” Seth nodded, yawning as he opened the pizza boxes.

“Good. Whole week in bed with my favourite person, his cock and his cooking,” Asaba grinned and Seth rolled his eyes. Couldn’t say he wasn’t looking forward to it himself.

Neither of them bothered to change until they showered and stumbled into the bed. Almost instantly passing out.

All of Friday they were both irritable and prickly. At lunchtime Seth got a text from Asaba. “Miss you,” it said along with sad cat emoji. Seth sighed, and sent “miss you too”, and a fast selfie with a tired smile, before returning to work.

He was about ready to jump out of his skin by the time he was off the clock. The receptionist, the Harumasamasa fan-one, gave him a strange look as he was hurrying out, a scarf wrapped tightly around his neck.

The metro ride was a pain. Seth was tempted to hiss at anyone who even looked at him. But he held it together until he stepped into his and Asaba’s shared apartment and was instantly enveloped in the scent of air after a thunder strike.

Asaba was already home. And soon walked in dressed in nothing but one of Seth's shirts. Grinning. “Hello, love,” he greeted as he walked up to pull Seth into a kiss.

“Let me at least shower quickly while I have enough sense to,” Seth groaned, but did burrow his face in Asaba's damp hair. He smelled great all the time but when his heat intensified the lavender and ozone. Seth could spend forever just cuddled and taking in his scent.

“I know I smell nice, now go shower, I can barely scent you under the scent of work,” Asaba chuckled, slipping out of Seth's loose grasp and went to the kitchen.

Seth hissed angrily for a second before gathering his wits and going to shower instead of chasing after Asaba.

After shower he only bothered with loose sweatpants before going to find Asaba making them a fast dinner before they got too distracted to even think about eating for the rest of the night. Grinning Seth snuck to the unaware omega and gently embraced him. “Whatever you're making smells delicious,” he said, nosing at barely visible mating mark on Asaba's neck.

Marks being not very obvious and both their uniform covering their necks was pretty convenient. Even if Seth sometimes wanted the whole world to know the handsome archer was taken. His and his alone.

“It's just some basic stir fry,” Asaba shrugged, exposing his neck further. “And your cooking’s much better anyway.”

Seth rolled his eyes. He wasn't that good. Just eager to learn. And after how much hospital food Asaba had in his life, everything that wasn it tasted great to him. “So long as you like it I'm glad,” he said instead of arguing. “And I enjoy your cooking, a lot,” he added before any insecurity could cloud his omega's good mood.

Asba hummed in vague agreement, leaning into Seth. “Are you sure about this? Us? You know I can….” Asba started, one hand wandering to his neck. But Seth was to stop it. Kissing the mark before Asaba's hand could get to it.

“More than I am of anything,” he said while peppering Asaba's neck with kisses.

“Okay, okay, I believe you, stop this before this burns,” Asaba giggled, pushing Seth aside. The alpha went along, sitting by the dinning table to wait for the meal his precious omega made for him. Warm feeling spreading in his stomach at the thought.

The stir fry was soon done and eaten in silence. Both of them having to focus to not abandon important things to jump each other. But once the dishes were in the dishwasher there was no stopping Seth from sitting Asaba on the kitchen counter to claim his lips.

The shirt the omega had on was quickly on the floor. “Bed… Seth… damn it… bed…” Asaba whined as Seth left marks along his neck. Even in this state remembering to not overwhelm his lungs.

The alpha obediently listened. Picking the omega up easily and carried him to their nest.

Asba woke up to his doorbell ringing. No one should be dumb enough to come here now, right? Both he and Seth informed their friends they'd be indisposed.

Groanig he deranged himself from the grumpy, barely awake alpha. And went to chase whoever it was awake. With nothing else readily available he pulled on Seth's barely too big sweatpants on.

“I'm coming, I'm coming,” he huffed ad he marched to the door. When he opened it outside were Section 6 (luckily minus Soukaku) and the N.E.P.S. “Ummm,” Asaba managed just then realising he was covered in bite marks that matched Seth's teeth. More than likely smelling very much like Seth… “What brings you guys here?” He asked, as casually as he could.

“You were unusually happy about your cycle happening so we got worried, and in the way we met Zhuya and Qingyi,” Miyabi explained

“And thought it was a good idea to approach an omega in heat?” Asana whined. If Seth didn't spend most of the night fuckin his brain out he'd be unable to even take a step away from the bed.

Low guttural, feline growl had a chill going down his spine. Looking back he saw Seth, dragging behind him the bedsheet that was precariously wrapped around his waist. And he instantly wrapped. His arms around Asaba, nuzzling his neck and purring all happy now that he had his omega with him.

“Congratulations,” Qingyi said flatly and clapped, soon joined by Miyabi. Asana just stood there mortified as his alpha slowly realised some of their closest coworkers were outside the door.

Before anyone said anything else embarrassing Asaba yelled out ‘thank you for your concern but we're totally fine’ and slammed the door closed.

“Please fuck that out of my mind,” he groaned, leaning his full weight on Seth.

“Agreed,” Seth nodded and picked Asaba up, and totally left the bedsheet by the door.

“That explains matching lunch boxes,” Miyabi nodded as the four left the building in hurry.

“And going out for lunch together,” Qingyi nodded.

“I need eye bleach to forget that,” Zhu Yuan groaned. She doubted she'd be able to meet her subordinate’s eyes for at least a week.

ft. gn! reader, fluff, relationship isn't really specified but it's romantic, not beta-read; based on some lines from trust events, this man is too cute for me not to try and write a few things for him although it's almost dawn.

"I can't believe you'd betray me like this."

His hand covered his mouth, golden eyes narrowed like they were holding back tears as Harumasa stared at you... and the purring cat on your lap.

"I went through all the trouble of trimming its claws so you wouldn't get scratched... And look! It's acting like you've been the one buying its food and toys all this time! Traitor."

Said traitor nuzzled your hand, its purring intensifying when your fingers gently scratched behind the feline's ears. You shook your head with an amused smile at his antics, watching as the raven-haired man took a seat beside you on the touch, a pout on his face while he stared at the kitten.

"What can I say? I have a talent." The cat let out a little meow as if agreeing to your words, before it got more comfortable on your lap, furry head against your stomach.

"So unfair. Maybe your lap is comfier than mine?" He reached over with a hand to pet the kitten, who opened an eye to send a lazy look at its owner before hiding its face against you. Harumasa sighed. "Look! It's ignoring me."

"I'm sure it's just this friendly because you've been taking care of it so well." Although knowing his luck with the animals, that probably wasn't completely truth. "Now c'mon! I didn't bring a movie all the way here to not watch it!"

"Uuugh, you're making a sick, fragile person like me stand up just to put on a movie? I didn't know you were so heartless..." A laugh broke his pitiful tone when he noticed your unamused stare. "Alright, alright. Since I'm a wonderful host, I'll grab some snacks too."

With a movie playing on the TV —a comedy, not the best, but one that you thought he would enjoy— and sharing snacks, time passed quickly. Harumasa's laugh was light, quite easy to provoke even if the jokes were bad, and yet you'd find yourself distracted from the screen every time you heard it.

His eyes wouldn't take long to find yours, a slight tilt of his head and a raised eyebrow silently asking if something was wrong, and you'd look away after shaking your head. You could chalk it up to simply wanting to see his reaction and not being too interested in the movie yourself due to having seen it before, but you knew it would be a lie.

Thankfully, Harumasa didn't say anything, maybe deciding to save you from the teasing this time. It wasn't the first time he caught you staring at his face, after all.

By the time the credits rolled, the kitten had grown bored of laying on your thighs, jumping down to go play or take a nap somewhere else. The man sitting by your side stretched his arms over his head with a groan.

"That was good, but laughing so hard tired me out." He yawned. "I might just take a little nap... Hm, wouldn't this be a good time to test if my theory of your lap being comfier is true?"

"What?" You blinked in surprise, cheeks heating up when you heard him chuckle at your reaction. "...It wouldn't even be an efficient test if you can't compare it to your own."

"Ah, you caught me." You decided not to think too hard about what he meant, but did that mean that he actually wanted to sleep on your lap? "Still, you'll lend me your shoulder for a bit, won't you? Juuuust for a little nap. Why don't you take one too? Don't worry about losing track of time, I'll make sure you get home safe and sound, I'm a very reliable person, aren't I?"

"And you can't sleep on your bed or bring a pillow because...?"

"Both are so far away! What if I fall asleep on the way and hit my head against the floor? That'd be terrible."

You rolled your eyes, still a little flustered, but didn't move away when Harumasa rested his head against your shoulder, the two of you managing to find a position that was relatively comfortable.

In the end, you did actually end up falling asleep with your head on top of his, and woke up when it was already dark outside. Luckily, you had a very capable member of Section 6 to accompany you home.

When Harumasa got back to his own place, he noticed that you forgot to take the movie back with you... Oh, well, that just meant you'd have to come back another day, since he'll most likely forget to bring it to you.

Could I request Harumasa getting hugs from his partner to cure his sadness?

Today was very cruel to him. Well scratch that every day at work is cruel to him only he knows how he escaped the overtime today, it takes skill to skip all this work!

Everyone has been working hard to clean up the message in the pale hollow so he should do his part too, now that everything has come to an end he can finally have a day off and see his beautiful partner, who must have already gone to their shared apartment by now.

Ever since he has brought asaboo into house it's an Chaos with his cat.They seem to be always chasing each other, well mostly it's his cat chasing but sometimes the roles do get reversed, asaboo’s favourite spot of taking a nap is besides the window on the bedroom anytime of the day is good for him, so he would not be surprised by view he might get after he enters into the house and he definitely would swipe some pictures.

“I am home!” he announced his arrival cheerfully making his way inside, it felt nice to have someone waiting for you, someone you love.

To his surprise it was rather quiet as he stepped in the house removing his shoes and he went into the living room, the movie on the tv was on pause as the viewer was dozing off on the couch, given their position you must have been waiting for him, but his attention was very much caught by the bangboo sleeping on your lap hogging the place for himself.

Oh as much he didn't want to interrupt you and be by your side quietly, his cat had other plans. His gaze flicked from the cat on the floor who looked ready to pounce on the bangboo sleeping without a single worry of the world.

“EHH-NAAA” There is it , the loud screech of asaboo as he got back on his feet after being scratched by the cat. You jolt awake from your sleep,hitting your head with his.

“Ouch ouch ouch” you ignored the pain on your forehead and looked at the man who had now dramatically fallen on the carpet from the impact.

“Ah my vision, the world is spinning. Only if there was any beautiful and kind person out there who would help me”

“Seriously haru. You could have wake me up”

As you voice out your concern and helping him sit back up while those two did a chaotic chase around the house.

“Now now what kind of boyfriend would I be , to wake up my beautiful partner from their sleep, you should take some notes and join me for extra sleep in the mornings”

“So you can be late to work? Yeah nice try but sorry i cannot be late”

These was the fourth round these two were making around you both, you held out your head gently placing your fingers on the cats forehead stoping it from running further as asaboo hides behind you wiping his non-existance sweat while voicing out his complains which you couldn't understand, to say it was just as dramatic as the real him.

“That's enough from you two. Both of you can't go a day without chasing eachother, can you?”

The duo just looked down cutely hoping to achieve your forgiveness with that act.

“Yeah, listen to your mother” said the guy who was now laying on your lap instead, not that you'll ever mind.The duo made their peace and went back to thier perspective places.

You look down on your lap gently brushing his hair off his face.

“As if thier dad ever listens to me”

“Heyy now what's with the false accusations, i can't go a day without you, ya know it” he said while gently holding your hand and placing a soft kiss on your fingertips. Your frown was now replaced with a gentle smile.

“Are you planning to sleep on the floor tonight?”

“Well if you do whose am i to refuse”

“Well as I don't plan too you should get up” you said as you get up and he follows behind.

“Hours since i have been home and not a single kiss , i guess my death is written today”

“sir it's been roughly twenty minutes since you have entered.” strong arms warp around your waist from behind with his face nuzzled on your shoulder.

“ twenty minutes feels like twenty hour's without you.” Suddenly you felt his hands move down , a light yell escaped your lips as he strated tickling you.

“Ha! Haru stop” you hear him laugh behind you taking the chance to push him on the bed, it was your turn now.

After a minute of laughing and trying to overthrow each other he ended up nuzzling his face on your neck with his arms wrapped around.

“I am sooo tired” he whispered, taking a sigh to relax while your hands rub his scalp particularly wooing him to sleep, He looked up at her with drowsy eyes.

“Aren't you forgetting something?”

“Hmm, and what would that be?”

“Come on now! Your poor sick boyfriend has been working all day long, have some pity”

“Ah yes, such an unfortunate event let me make it up to you hm?” You said as you lean in to lock your lips with his, which would have been a small kiss but turned to a sloppy and lazy makeout session.

After a minute of exchanging and showering his face with kisses , you both parted away as he drifts off to sleep in your embrace with a small smile playing on his lips ever since he entered today and with no intention to leave even if the sun was up in the sky.

“Goodnight haru, i love you”

[harumasa-wifey]

Omgomg i love your writing sm 😭‼️

Since you're open for request, can I request a doctor!reader with Harumasa? Imagine he is going to infirmary just to see reader 😔 maybe he pretend to be sick as an excuse just to see reader

➹Just Because I Like You a Lot

✖Asaba HarumasaxFem!doctor Reader

Warning: none just some fluff, not proofread

Note: yea i almost died last week/srs but only my left hand is injured so it's fine. Thank you for waiting i also have another similar request for doctor Reader and I am currently working on it.

The moonlight falls on the papers placed upon your office desk as you go on reading while sipping on your cup of tea with more papers in the piles beside your desk.

You weren't expecting any patients at this hour as you were checking some reports before ending your shift but as the saying goes, Expect the unexpected. So there he was entering your office with a pout on his lips looking beat up.

Your instant response was putting down your cup as you stood up, several thoughts running in your head. Did he get these injuries in a Hollow? Or worse fighting some high level ethereal.

“Who hurt you?” The worried look on your face was obvious as you asked him to sit down to take a look.

“Chief”

.....

“Huh?”

The worried expression was now replaced by confusion. Why would miyabi do that? Of course she should have a reason, those thoughts ended as he spoke up again.

“Well well isn't this embarrassing, the chief and I had a sparring session and now I look like this”

“Man she wasn't playing this time” he murmured under his breath which was pretty audible in the peaceful office. A light giggle broke out your lips as you came to the conclusion on why this had happened.

“Really Miss doc? I came up looking this injured in the night and you are laughing,Won't you at least treat me with care?”

“Pfft, it's just some minor injuries you been through worse asaba but don't worry I'll ask a nurse to fix your bandages”

You were about to make your way to your desk to call upon a nurse when he pulled you back hugging you from the back, his breath fanning over your ears as he mumbled.

“I didn't come all this way for you to push me out, you know how much i hate travelling long distances”

It's true he is lazy like that and it's not like he cannot do this by himself yet he is here asking for your help when he could be home sleeping.

You held his hand which was interlocked around your waist as you faced him.

“Alright, sit back down I'll do it”

He smiled like a kid winning a prize and sat back on the bed watching you move around the office gathering the first aid kit, you came back with the kit and several bandages in your hand placing them on the desk.

“Okay, show me the wounds that have been reopened”

“Do I really need to do all that doc? You already know where it is, can't I just sit here all pretty for you?”

He said as he gave you a teasing smile clearly stating his intentions once again.

You sigh as your hands hover above his his tie first then the shirt buttons undoing them one by one as he quietly indulges you taking it off him with a satisfied smile resting on his until you pulled off his waist and stomach, he lets out a low grunt trying to make it look like it hurt while you just stared at him unamused.

“Can you please be gentle with me doc? I am a really fragile person”

“I am sure no fragile person can charge into hollows like it's nothing but whatever you want”

You checked around his wound and it hasn't been opened which was good. You just need to change the dressing, as you were thinking of changing the dressing your fingers were hovering around his abs, and how could he miss out on a chance like this.

“You like what you see doc? It took a lot of effort so i would like you to parise me more if you wanna” he asked with a slight smirk adorning his lips. You quickly take your hand back tearing your gaze away from him to the box besides.

“Ahem, i was checking the wound” even though what you said was true he surely doesn't mind you checking something else out on him.

You slowly but carefully wrapped the bandages around him and put the box aside giving him space to dress up but it seemed like he didn't want to do that either.

“won't you help me with this doc?” you wish you could dig yourself a hole, his advances were getting too much for you to act nonchalant even though the blush on your face is quite obvious to him and he is enjoying every second of it.

You help him put on his shirt and tie back, whispering quietly under your breath which was clearly audible to him.

“You cannot keep getting away with this” before leaning in to give him a final kiss as you ward him out of your office to pack your stuff to leave with him, you know he is standing outside and he won't go anywhere without you.
