Welcome to Stør’s worst nightmare 😃🫠😟😨

🍯Honey I shrunk the kids + The Biggest Heart 🤎

Everytime Stør finds out he’s grown, even a bit, he has nightmares he’ll keep growing… and growing… and growing…

No one knows how big Stør will get… he’s constantly afraid he’ll grow too big that his friends and family will be too small for him to see anymore. That he’ll accidentally hurt or kill someone. He fears being alone and rejected by people due to his giant size. 🥲

Solar Opposites: Unleashed Episode #10: “Life at The Party Pt. 1”

One fine afternoon at lunch time, Amy Wheeler is sitting with her friend Suzy. But, she is distracted by something

Suzy: Is these people eat these, it’s considered feeding this stuff to prisoner noticing Amy eating school burger How could you eat that? It’s like a meat from another planet.

Amy: But I like it.. Look at her. cuts to Monica Waybright heading out invitations Miss Popularity!

Suzy: I know right?

Sonya starts to overhear the conversation while eating lunch with Jesse, Monica M., Stacy G and Parker.

Sonya: Huh?

Suzy: sigh Oh come she’s just hamming it up because of tomorrow. You be Miss Popularity too if your dad rented a water park for your birthday party

Amy: Birthday Party?

Suzy: Uh, yeah. The whole school’s talking about it.

Amy: What do you mean?

Suzy: Yeah. The invitations she stuffed in her lockers. Like the ones those nerds have over there

The scene then shows Jesse looking at the invitation while eating lunch with Stacy G and blushing once Stacy G feeds Jesse a white chocolate covered strawberry.

Suzy: Didn’t she give you one?

Amy: I don’t get it. I’m smart. I’m funny. And I’m pretty

Suzy: And modest too.

Amy: Ugh. This is the worst day ever! I mean they all pluck all around her and not me

Suzy: Believe me. Popularity is an all time job. She’ll be working overtime at her party.

Amy has an idea.

Amy: You know just once I would want to throw Waybright out of the spotlight. I like to do something Monica could never do.

Suzy: Yeesh. I think you did.

Amy: What do you mean?

Suzy: You ate a cafeteria hamburger…

Hearing this Amy gaps in horror and starts freaking out.

Amy: Oh my God! Why didn’t you tell me?! This is gonna screw up my DNA runs off

Suzy sighs. But then, Amy crashes into another student, who crashes into a table with fancy food flying on the kids, then a cook slipped on pudding and then the pudding and a carton of milk was thrown on Amy as she screams. The kids clap and cheer and applauds her. Human Jesse tries not to laugh.

Monica W.: comes up to her Nice show Wheeler. I love it if you can do an encore at my party. puts invitation in between Amy’s boobs

As soon as Monica W. leaves, Amy growls as she crumbles up the invitation.

Amy: to herself You do know of course that this means war….

Meanwhile, Super Shlorpian Korvo flies into the Wheelers’ house and turns back into his normal self while wiping off the blood from his face as he takes a deep breath and puts his contact glasses back on. He then turns into his human self and walks downstairs.

Human Korvo: takes a deep breath I hope it goes well..

Then she sees Diane waiting for Mrs. Goodfellow and her assistant Maureen as they got out of the car.

Diane: Thank you for coming. I am so glad my coworker Korey and I can discuss our monster epidemic program.

Mrs. Goodfellow: M-hmm

Human Korvo: It is an honor, not gonna lie.

Diane: Um when the county supervisors told us you were interested.

Mrs. Goodfellow: Oh interested is much too strong of a word, Mrs. Wheeler.

Diane: Oh yes

Mrs. Goodfellow: The program you seem to run is too expensive. I don’t give my money to just anybody.

Human Korvo looks away nervously.

Maureen: Th county supervisors were at first skeptical too, Korey. But, Korey has shown us some stats-

Mrs. Goodfellow: Statics don’t interested me, Maureen, you can’t do what they do and quite frankly I’d be frank.

Diane: I see why pull punches now.

Human Korvo sighs.

Mrs. Goodfellow: I don’t feel like you represented the proper image in the city. Your family is a bit too unorthodox

Human Korvo: Um…

Diane: That is a lie. I-

Then, a monster turns back into a human fell from the ground while Mundane Terry hides and turns back into his normal Shlorpian self and then turns human without anyone looking.

Mrs. Goodfellow: Oh my goodness. What happened?

Human Korvo: to himself Terry… Oh must be another monster problem taken care off sighs lovingly knowing what Terry did plus our family as perfect as it should be

Diane: Oh yeah. Totally.

Human Korvo: Okay um, so um we’ll talk later bye. sighs lovingly about Terry

Mrs. Goodfellow: Very well.

Human Korvo heads inside and smirks upon seeing Human Terry cleaning off some blood from his mouth.

Human Korvo: So, what have you been upto, mister macho Shlorpian?

Human Terry: Oh not much. Just kicking ass.

Human Korvo chuckles. Phoebe then comes in.

Human Terry: Okay. finish cleaning off the blood of his neck

Phoebe: So, how was your days?

Human Korvo: Oh mine was good.

Human Terry: Yeah. My mine was just kicking monster ass and-

Suddenly, Human Yumyulack, Human Jesse and Sonya comes running screaming in joy as they head upstairs to their bedroom.

Parker: comes in Oh hey Korvo.

Amy comes in while Diane comes inside as well

Human Korvo: Hi, Parker.

Amy: Hey mom…

Diane: Oh honey, what’s wrong?

Amy sighs sadly.

Diane: Oh honey tell me what happened…

As Amy sighs and is ready to tell her mom everything, the kids head to their bedrooms while laughing in joy and getting excited.

Human Jesse: I bet the Sea Kingdom is showing mermaids!

Human Yumyulack: I bet they have awesome giant water slides!

Sonya: YEAH!

But then, Sonya looked at the invitation and grows scared upon a seeing Kraken behind the sea castle on the poster.

Human Yumyulack: Aw don’t worry, they don’t be showing krakens this year Sonya.

Sonya: Hopefully…

Human Jesse: Yeah. I know how much they scare you.

Sonya: gulps nervously M-hmm.

The scene cuts to Human Korvo heading in his lab while working on something with Parker. Then, Amy comes in.

Amy: Hey Mr. Opposites? Can we talk?

Human Korvo: Sure.

Amy: Now that Mrs. Goodfellow will be here tomorrow, I haven’t seen anything that unexpected. Now my mom is calling that woman to beg for mercy.

Human Korvo: Sure…

Human Korvo sighs as Parker starts something.

Human Korvo: Yeah. I’ll be doing the same favor later tonight. So uh, what do you wanna talk about? What’s the problem?

Any fidgets a little

Amy: Me. My life.

Human Korvo: What kind of problem?

Amy: Monica Waybright’s having this awesome party and everyone is invited.

Human Korvo: You’re not going, are you? I mean if…

Amy: I-I know what you mean.. last time I went to swim party I almost took six life guards with me

Human Korvo: M-hmm. So basically you can’t swim?

Amy: But I am going to this swim party to prove a point. I can’t be humiliated.

Human Korvo: Aw who cares about that stuff? I’m sure you have some other talents? You do great?

Amy: I hope so

As Human Korvo gets to work….

Amy: That’s why I need your help. What happened to that stuff you were making for the cruise line at the labratory. To keep people from drowning?

Human Korvo grows shock while Parker grows confused.

Parker: What?

Human Korvo: Shit.

Amy: You know that cream you were talking about two months ago

Human Korvo: Yes? What about it?

Amy: Hmm?

Human Korvo: Oh yeah. The fish cream. It has a DNA stimulate to sea mammals to awaken some kind of DNA in a human that turns them into something. But we had to keep it hidden because of the epidemic.

But then Human Korvo stops talking as he grows shock.

Human Korvo: Oh now what this is about? No! You cannot borrow that cream! I haven’t tested it yet! It might be dangerous!

Amy: But-

Human Korvo: I am so sorry but I think it’s best if you leave…

Amy growls. As Amy leaves with Diane, the kids look out the window as they grow concern about his. Later, that night, Amy sneaks in to the lab, she got on a labtop and prepares to transfer the cream in small container. Then, Sonya comes in and gasp in shock.

Sonya: What the?

Amy: Oh hey Opposites. I believe you are excited because I am about to take the fish cream that will totally kick Monica Waybright’s ass tomorrow

Sonya: Put that back.

Amy: Pfft. Fuck no. And you are not gonna try to stop me!

Sonya: What? No I am not! I’m telling Korv- I mean Korey what you are doing, he’s gonna be upset

Amy growls.

Amy: Or I will tell Bobby Rockwell the time you squirted milk at your nose when you grow so into him

Sonya gasp and then backs up what she said a bit.

Sonya: Then again it’s all yours

Amy smirks. Amy then uploads the cream as it pairs in a container. Then she puts the lid on the container as she leaves. Sonya looks nervous as she watches Amy leave. Then, the Pupa comes in and sees a piece of the cream as he splash his hands on it. The next day, Human Korvo and Human Terry drives the kids to the swim park where the party is at. Then, the kids got out the car.

Human Terry: Have a great time!

Human Yumyulack, Human Jesse and Sonya: Thank you Terry and Korvo!

Human Korvo: Bye! We love you! Stay safe!

As Human Korvo and Human Terry drive away, Human Korvo can’t help but seduce his husband.

Human Korvo: So after my meeting with Mrs. Goodfellow, you wanna have a little fun later?

Human Terry bites his lip.

Human Terry: Oh ho fuck yeah, you beautiful blue stud.

Human Korvo parks the car in a parking lot and the two husbands makeout but unknown to them, gills appear on Human Pupa. Back at the water, Amy watches the rest of peers having fun and then sees Monica jumping off of the board and dives into the water. A perfect 10.

Amy: scoffs Showoff.

Monica W.: Hey Wheeler, hope you have a nice swim! Better not wait for a lifeguard.

Amy mimics Monica W. quietly as Monica leaves. Then, she looks at the cream. Back at the Solar Opposites house, Phoebe was getting tea and scones while Human Korvo and Diane were talking with Mrs. Goodfellow while Maureen writes down in her journal. Mrs. Goodfellow takes a sip of her coffee.

Human Korvo: So glad we finally get to talk to you. How is things going?

Mrs. Goodfellow: sighs Not good.

As they started talking, Human Terry then sees medals and the logo of the water park on Maureen’s purse as he grow shock, but then grows suspicious when he notice familiar in Maureen’s eyes. Then, he heard Pupa screaming as he head upstairs

Human Terry: Pupa?! Pupa?! What’s wrong?!

But then, he gasp in horror upon seeing the Pupa, now with fish gills and scales as the Pupa starts crying.

Human Terry: Shit! I gotta tell Korvo!

But then, he hears a dolphin chirping and looks at the computer where he sees the DNA and realizes someone broke in.

Human Terry: What the? Who broke in?!

Then the scene cuts to Amy putting on the cream as it makes some kind of motion in her as she sighs in relief

Amy: It’s showtime

Then, Amy heads up on the board as everyone looks up and sees her

Monica W.: Be careful Wheeler! That’s a big drop!

Amy jumps off the board as water splashes on everyone and then she starts doing moves dolphins do.

Teens: Whoa

Sonya sees Amy and gasp.

Sonya: Oh no.

Sonya then had enough and decided to go talk to her siblings. Back with Human Korvo, Mrs. Goodfellow is still talking to him.

Mrs. Goodfellow: I’m afraid our deal might be cut off because I heard there was some kind of cream you made two months ago during the pandemic

Human Korvo: What?!

Diane: What are you talking about?

Mrs. Goodfellow: I heard about from the science community. I heard that cream wasn’t tested and is heard to be dangerous.

Human Korvo: I know it hasn’t been tested but-

Human Janiz comes in while Human Terry grabs her and whispers something in her ear. She grows terrified as they approach Human Korvo.

Human Korvo: What’s going on?

Human Terry: whispering We need you for a second quick!

Human Korvo: Uh, I’ll be right back!

Human Korvo leaves and then Human Terry and Human Janiz grows nervous and shows them Aqua Pupa.

Mrs. Goodfellow: Ugh, make it quick.

Human Korvo leaves and then Human Terry and Human Janiz grows nervous and shows them Aqua Pupa.

Human Korvo: screams Oh my God! My baby!

Human Korvo starts breathing in and out.

Human Terry: Someone broke in and took the cream! And one of the samples must’ve gotten on Pupa!

Human Korvo: Oh my God! Amy! She took the cream! I don’t know how! But we got to stop her!

Human Janiz suddenly get a phone call from Sonya.

Human Janiz: Hello?

Sonya: Auntie Janiz! It’s Sonya! Is Korvo with you?

Human Janiz: Oh yes? Why?!

Sonya: Put him on! Please!

Human Janiz: Okay okay!

Human Janiz hands Human Korvo the phone.

Human Korvo: Hello? Sonya is that you?

Sonya: Yes! It’s me! Something crazy happened!

Human Korvo: What is it?! Tell me?! Did Amy took the cream

Sonya: Yes! She did! She put it on!

Human Korvo: What?! Oh my God!

We then cut to the water park where Human Jesse and Human Yumyulack are having fun.

Human Jesse: sliding down the slide Woo-hoo! This is awesome!

Human Yumyulack: sliding down the waterslide BEST! DAY! EVER!

Suddenly Sonya runs up to them.

Sonya: GUYS! GUYS! WE GOTTA STOP AMY!

Human Jesse: What? Why?

Human Yumyulack: What did she do?

Sonya: She took the fish cream!

Human Jesse and Human Yumyulack gasp.

Human Jesse: Oh no! We have to stop her!

The scene then cuts back to everyone cheering for Amy.

Monica W.: What is wrong with you people?! This is my party! You should all be adoring me!

Monica W. then sees the cream, reads and grins as she puts it on. After feeling something happening to her in her body, she smiles and heads up and jumps off of the diving board and into the water where she starts to do the same abilities Amy does. Monica W. cackles evilly.

Amy: quietly Bring it on!

Then, the scene cuts to Human Korvo, Human Terry, Phoebe, Human Janiz and Human Aqua Pupa, in a fish bowl heading to the sea park.

Human Korvo: Oh I hope we’re not too late!

Human Aqua Pupa starts splashing in the water while laughing. Phoebe sighs.

Phoebe: Oh I hope the kids are alright! I still can’t believe Amy would do that

Human Korvo suddenly snaps.

Human Korvo: GRRR! I SWEAR! IF SHE DOES ANYTHING TO HUMILATE MY KIDS, I SWEAR TO GOD-

Human Terry gasps and soothes his husband.

Human Terry: stops the car It’s okay it’s okay. Shhh…. I’m here…

Human Korvo feels his body changing.

Human Korvo: turning back into his Shlorpian self Oh no! Not now! Terry quick! Get me somewhere to hide!

Human Terry: On it!

Luckily, the adults made it to the theme park and Korvo heads inside a private restroom so no one can see him transform while Human Terry, Phoebe and Human Janiz heads in there, while Human Janiz carries the fish bowl with Human Aqua Pupa in it. The scene cuts back to Amy and Monica as they head up to the surface gasp for air.

Monica: You wanna go for another round, Wheeler?

Amy: Hell yeah I do!

Human Janiz: HEY!

Popular Guy: Hey Monica! Let me help you up!

But as Monica grabs the hot guy’s hand, her skin suddenly shed which made everyone gasp in horror

Popular Guy: Aw! God! Look everyone! Monica’s shedding! throws skin to the ground

Mr. O’Finscales, the owner of the Sea Park sees the girls and hides behind the wall.

Mr. O’Finscales: Very interesting.

Amy: What’s the matter?

Monica looks at her hand, that that into a fish scale hand and screams in horror. Human Yumyulack, Human Jesse and Sonya sees the girls and gasp as they help them out of the water but then, Amy and Monica W.’s hands them turn into fish scale hands, for a mermaid.

Human Terry: Kids!

Human Jesse: Korvo!

Sonya: Where is he?! Where’s Korvo?!

Phoebe: He’s in the restroom! Long story!

Human Janiz: Come on! We gotta go!

Amy: Terry! Help Us!

Monica W.: What’s happening?!

Then, suddenly, the girls’ legs turn into mermaid fins as they gasp in horror.

Human Jesse: Awesome!

Monica W.: Somebody do something!

Human Terry: I think it’s already been done

Human Yumyulack: Shit!

Amy: Guys!

Human Terry: We gotta get you outta here!

Human Jesse: Amy?!

The family then gets the girls out here while panicking. Then, they got in the truck but are waiting for Korvo

Human Jesse: Aw man, where is he?

Human Janiz: Where's Korvo?!

Then, Human Korvo comes out after calming down and is overjoyed to see the kids alright.

Human Korvo: Kids!

Human Yumyulack, Human Jesse and Sonya: Korvo!

Human Korvo hugs his kids while weeping.

Human Korvo: I am so happy you are okay

Human Jesse: Us too Korvo. hugs him close

Sonya giggles.

Human Yumyulack: Now come on! Drive Terry!

Human Terry: On it!

Human Terry steps on the gas pedals and the cars starts speeding up while Mr. O’Finscales follow them in his truck. Mr. O'Finscales smirks. Then, a few minutes later, the Solars made it home and have put Amy and Monica W. in a jacuzzi while Human Korvo leaves. Then, he looks at Diane.

Diane: Bad news. Mrs. Goodfellow canceled the partnership

Human Korvo: What?! Why?!

Diane: Well…

Then a doorbell was heard as Human Korvo comes up to get it.

Human Korvo: Hello? sees Mr. O’Finscales What the? Gordon O’Finscales?

Mr. O’Finscales: Hello, old friend.

Human Korvo: Uh, what the fuck are you doing at our house?

Mr. O’Finscales: I am here to make a deal.

Human Korvo: What deal? crosses his arm

Mr. O’Finscales: A deal that involves your husband.

Human Korvo: Uh, excuse me?

Human Terry: Honey, what’s going on?

Human Korvo tries to lie.

Human Korvo: I have no idea what you are talking O’Finscales! What is this bullshit?!

Human Terry: Uh yeah, why kind of bullshit is this?

Mr. O’Finscales: You'll see.

Human Terry: Uh, if you’re asking me a shady deal that might endanger innocent lives, then no thank you.

Phoebe: What’s going on?

Human Terry: Nothing.

Mr. O’Finscales: Aw come on. I know you have mermaids in there! Think about they could make profits!

Human Korvo: We don't have anything! Now go!

Mr. O’Finscales: Oh come on! Think about it! I’m sure we can make-

Human Korvo slams the door in O’Finscales’ face as he and Human Terry sigh in relief and kiss. The husbands make out as they moan. Meanwhile…

Amy: Ugh! This jacuzzi is so crammed!

Monica W.: Oh shut the fuck up you sea cow! splashed water at Amy

Amy: Chicken of the sea! splashed water at Monica

Human Jesse comes outside.

Monica: Siren Whore! splashed water at Amy

Amy: Oh you wanna go?!

Monica W.: Bring it you stupid ugly skank!

The girls scream in fury as they continue to splash water at each other while the Human Replicants watch in dismay.

Human Yumyulack: Yep. Everyone would definitely want to see this

Human Jesse: Oh, for God's sake.

But, as the girls keep splashing, the water spreads around the floor when suddenly a vile appears on the doorstep. Then, Sonya comes out with snacks.

Sonya: Okay guys! Got you two some- slips on the water as the container containing the cream fell on the floor and gasp Oh no!

Sonya then slips on the clip and then steps on the vile combining with the cream as she screams and falls into the jacuzzi, which made Monica W. and Amy stop fighting and scream in horror.

Amy: Oh my God! screams

Monica W.: Help! Blood! screams

The grown ups hear Amy and Monica W. screaming and heads outside.

Human Korvo: Whoa whoa whoa! Calm the fuck down! What the fucking hell is going on here?!

Amy: TAKE A WILD FUCKING GUESS!

Sonya pops out while trying to swim up to the surface but starts drowning.

Sonya: KORVO! TERRY! HELP! I’M HURT! HELP!

Human Terry: SONYA!

Human Korvo: HANG ON SONYA! DADDY’S COMING!

Human Korvo jumps into the water.

Human Terry: I’M COMING TOO KORVY jumps in the water

Human Korvo and Human Terry pulls Sonya out of the water.

Human Korvo: It’s okay Sonya I got you.

Human Terry: does cpr by pushing Sonya’s stomach with his hand, then he does it with his mouth which caused Sonya to cough out water and awaken

Human Jesse: Sonya!

Human Terry blushes at seeing how sexy Korvo's hair is when it's wet. Human Korvo then shakes his hair back and forth which made Human Terry blush even more, then they heard Sonya’s groans.

Sonya: Korvo? Terry?

Human Terry: Sonya!

Human Korvo: Sonya! hugs Sonya Oh baby we were so worried about you!

Human Terry brushes a strand of hair behind Human Korvo's ear and flirts with him.. Sonya giggles as Human Korvo kisses her on the cheek

Human Terry: Y’know I do love it when you hair gets all wet Korey

Human Korvo blushes and gets flustered.

Human Korvo: Wow. You have so turned on. Terry, come here you big sexy hunk

The two husbands then makeout while holding Sonya in their arms carefully.

Human Jesse: Come on! Let’s get Sonya to the hospital….

Human Korvo: Oh right!

Later at the hospital, the doctor is helping tidy up Sonya’s foot while wrapping a bandage on it

Doctor: There we go

Sonya: Thanks.

Human Korvo: Thank you for helping our daughter? Is she gonna be okay?

Doctor: I’m sure she will. She just need to rest her feet while letting it heal for a bit. Anyway, she is gonna be fine

Human Korvo: Thank God.

Human Terry: Come on kids let’s go home.

The family then heads out of the hospital while Human Terry carries Sonya as he looks at her in concern.

Human Terry: Hey honey. You feeling okay?

Sonya: Not really...

Human Korvo: Don’t worry honey. You’ll feel better once we get home and you get to rest. I’m sure the pain will go away. Now let’s get you home. kiss Sonya on the forehead

Sonya giggles. Later that night, Sonya starts growling in her sleep like some kind of animal. She then starts seeing visions of ocean in the fast motion with sea creatures and sea mammals swimming around. The next morning, Sonya wakes up as she yawns.

Sonya: What a weird dream...

Suddenly, Yumyulack and Jesse wakes up and gasp in horror after seeing Sonya.

Sonya: What?

Yumyulack: Sonya! Your face! Your ears!

Sonya: What about them?

Jesse gets out a mirror and it shows reflection of Sonya, with the colors of Sparkling Mermaid ice cream colors gills on her face and her ears have turn into kraken ears. Sonya screams.

Korvo: comes in the room Sonya! What’s wrong?!

Korvo sees Sonya's face and ears and faints.

Terry: comes on the room Oh my God! Sonya! What the fuck happened to you?!

Sonya: I...I don't know!

Korvo: Hey hey hey! Don’t worry stay calm down! Just hide the effects at school and Terry and I will figure out what is wrong with you! Just go have a nice day school and stay the course! Everything is gonna be okay Sonya! I promise!

Sonya snaps.

Sonya: No it is not! It not gonna be okay! These girls have ruined my life! breaks down in tears

Terry: Oh Sonya...

Korvo and Terry put their arms around Sonya as they started to comfort her.

Terry: Shh…

Sonya weeps a little.

Sonya: I'm just a freak...that's all I'll ever be.

Korvo: Oh I don’t think you’re a freak. I still think you’re a beautiful girl on the inside. It’s nothing to be afraid of you. You just have to hide your appearances in the meantime okay?

Sonya: Okay...

Korvo and Terry and the Replicants put their arms around Sonya as she continues to weep a little.

Korvo: Shh… there there Sonya… it’ll be okay…

Sonya: How do you know things will be okay Korvo?

Korvo: Because, I am coming up with a cure to help you! And trust me! This will work!

Sonya: Okay.

Sonya hugs Korvo as he laughs.

Jesse: Okay but before we go to school…

Later at school, Sonya is now wearing ear muffs and a scarf to cover her gills while walking to class with Human Yumyulack and Human Jesse.

Human Jesse: Okay, now let’s make sure no one can see Sonya: Got it!

The three siblings then head inside class. Then, Sonya sees Bobby and starts blushing Sonya giggles. Then, the Stacies came and slammed her desk

Stacy H: Oh my lard. Is Opposites seriously staring at Bobby?

Sonya: Uh no. blushes nervously

Stacy K: What a loser.

Stacy F: I know right?

Human Jesse: Leave her alone!

Human Yumyulack: Yeah! You three bitches leave our sister alone!

Stacy K: Make us Opposites!

Human Yumyulack growls. But then takes a deep breath upon realizing his stress emotions will cause to transform. Then, Sonya snaps her pencil in her anger as she growls. Human Jesse is shocked.

Sonya: Then why don’t you take a hike you skank?

Ms. Perez and gasp upon seeing what happens to Sonya’s face and ears. Ms. Perez walks up to the Stacies.

Ms. Perez: What are you three doing to your classmates?!

Stacy H: Nothing!

Human Jesse: They're making fun of Sonya.

Stacy K: Shut up you skank! punches Human Jesse in the nose as the kids gasp

Human Jesse starts crying as Human Yumylack comforts her. Sonya then finally snaps and growls and throws Stacy K to the desk which surprised Ms. Perez, Principal Cooke and Miss Frankie and the others kids.

Stacy K: AAAAAAAHHHHHH!

Stacy F: What the fuck is your problem?!

Sonya: LEAVE MY BIG SISTER ALONE YOU MEANIES!

Miss Frankie: Uh oh

Principal Cooke: Oh shit! Something is definitely wrong!

Human Jesse and Human Yumyulack try to hold Sonya back.

Ms. Perez: Okay that’s it Stacies! Principal Cooke’s office now!

Stacy G gasp and comes up to Human Jesse.

Stacy G: Baby! What happened?!

Human Jesse: tearfully I got punched in the nose!

Stacy G: holds Human Jesse’s face as she cleans it with a clothe Shh… it’s okay. I’m here…

Human Jesse blushes and giggles. The two girls kiss and then Ms. Perez comes up with a solution.

Ms. Perez: Okay. I think it’s best if you guys take your sister home and go someplace like on your rooftop and figure out the problem

Human Yumyulack, Human Jesse and Sonya nod. The three siblings then head home. Later on the rooftop on the Solar’ house, Yumyulack gets a scanner out and Sonya is feeling nervous

Sonya: Are you sure this can figure out what is wrong with me

Human Yumyulack: Of course. We just need a scanner.

Jesse: Here you go

Yumyulack: gets the scanner Now hold still sis

Yumyulack activates the scanner. The scanner then scans all over Sonya’s body. But then, horrifying results came as Yumyulack gasped in horror.

Jesse: What is Yumbear?

Sonya: What are the results?!

Yumyulack: You're...you're...faints

Jesse got out the scanner and gasped

Sonya: What is it Jesse?

Jesse: You're half-kraken!

Sonya gasp in horror as she starts having a panic attack like Mei when she found out 4*Town is the same night as the ritual

Sonya: NO! A HALF-KRAKEN?! A HALF-KRAKEN?! WHAT?! breaths in and out frantically

Jesse: Sonya, chill. It's okay.

Sonya: No it isn’t! I can’t be half kraken! I’ll lose control! But oh my god! I’m gonna hurt people! No no no! breathes in and out frantically

Suddenly…

Aidan: Hey, Baxter!

Sonya’s eyes suddenly starts glowing the color of the Mermaid Sparkle ice cream and growls while Yumyulack and Jesse privately turns back into their human forms without anyone looking.

Jayden: What are you doing?! We’re filming here ever since Mark left us for you!

Aidan: to Human Yumyulack Don't think we forgot about why you took Mark away from us!

Human Jesse: Buzz off jerkface! We’re busy!

Human Yumyulack: He left you guys because you were dicks all the time and that he loved me.

Mark sees what is happening with the other kids and comes up to them. He then grow upset over what the headphone guys are doing to his boyfriend and his sisters.

Katie: Oh snap!

Gerald: What are you gonna say that, Aiden?

Jayden: You want us to leave you three alone?! Then get your ass down there now!

Human Jesse: Fuck this filming! And fuck you guys!

Sonya growls.

Mark: Guys leave my boyfriend and his sisters alone!

Aidan: Stay out of this, traitor!

Jayden: What is your deal?!

Human Yumyulack: Shove your deal up your ass, Aidan, Braiden and Jayden!

The kids: Oooh! Snap!

Aidan: FINE! GET OUT OF HERE! GO BACK TO YOUR PSYCHO NANNY AND YOUR FUCKING CRAZY DADS YOU CUNTS!

Sonya finally snaps. Sonya roars and pounces on Aidan.

Sonya: GRRRR! Take it back! Don’t talk to my family like that you stupid jerk!

Human Yumyulack: Sonya!

Human Jesse: You’re hurting him!

Sonya: AAAH! I HATE YOU! I HATE-

Human Terry: offscreen SONYA! STOP!

Then, Human Korvo, Human Terry, Human Janiz and Phoebe comes out.

Human Korvo: What the fuck is going on here?

Sonya snaps out of her rage.

Aidan: crying I’m sorry. Just get the fuck of me… please…

Sonya gasps. The kids, except for Mark and Bobby, backs away from her in fear. Sonya looks down at her hands as she becomes terrified over what she has done. Later….

Aidan’s Mom: I can’t believe, you would let your daughter do this!

Aidan’s Dad: Do you understand what she did to my son, huh?

Phoebe: I am sorry. She's never been like this before.

Aidan’s mom starts crying while holding her son’s face.

Aidan’s Dad: No no I don’t wanna fucking hear anymore of your apologies okay?!

Human Korvo: We don’t know what came over her. Sorry again….

Aidan's Mom: She is a fucking animal!

As they left, Human Korvo looks at the kids and it’s appear he was going to them and got mad. The kids squint in fear, but as they open the eyes, Human Korvo went past them and is actually approaching Amy and Monica W. in fury.

Human Korvo: I can’t believe you girls would do this to her!

Amy: It wasn't my fault! Monica started it-

Monica W.: We would never do anything to her!

Sonya: What?! gets stopped by Human Korvo

Human Korvo: I knew you were trouble! Putting all those thoughts into Sonya’s head. Messing with her around. Now she is infected, going savage she attack a defenseless boy! You think this is a fucking joke?! Didn’t I tell how dangerous the cream was?!

Monica W.: But-

Amy: We’re sorry… we didn’t mean to… I just wanted to show off Monica at the sea kingdom-

Human Korvo: SEA KINGDOM?! YOU BLACKMAIL MY DAUGHTER FOR A RIDICULOUS TEENAGE COMPETITION?!

Human Korvo's eyes turn aquamarine.

Amy: No! Sonya wanted to-

Human Korvo: Don’t you dare try to blame her! eyes turn back to normal Sonya is a good girl! And you took advantage of her!

Amy: No we didn't!

Monica W.: Sonya, tell them!

Sonya grows scared as she looks at Human Korvo, who looks at her in concern. But after being upset over being blackmailed by Amy, turns away and hugs her father.

Amy: What?!

Monica W.: Dude… sighs sadly

Human Korvo: Come on, Sonya.

Sonya looks down sadly as Human Korvo held out his hand.

Human Korvo: Let’s go…

Sonya takes Human Korvo’s hand and sniffles. The family drives away while Amy and Monica W. watches sadly. Sonya looks down with tears falling down her eyes while Human Terry strokes her hair softly to comfort her.

Human Terry: Ssh…ssh. You’re okay.

Sonya then starts crying as Human Jesse and Human Yumyulack and Human Pupa comforts her.

Human Jesse: Oh sis…

Human Yumyulack: We’re so sorry…

Sonya: It’s my fault.

Human Terry: What do you mean honey?

Sonya: I think I’m turning into a half monster… looks down at her hands that have turn into kraken hands I don’t think I should go to school

Human Terry: Don’t worry… you don’t have to… your father and I will figure out a way to fix this… I promise… kiss her on the forehead while Sonya sniffles

Human Korvo smiles but then it turns into a sad expression. Back with Monica W. and Amy, the girls are asleep in the jacuzzi, suddenly a shirt drops at the floor. Then, Amy hears a man cleaning his throat and looks up in shock as she gasp. It’s Mr. O’Finscales.

Mr. O’Finscales: Hello girls…

The scene then fades to something pouring in an excluder in the ship’s lab while Korvo is asleep on the keyboard with a blanket on him. Terry and Phoebe came in with Phoebe putting down a cup of coffee next to Korvo while Terry kiss Korvo on the forehead that wakes him up.

Korvo: Mmm, Terry?

Terry: Good morning my sweet sleeping peepy. kiss Korvo on the cheek

Korvo smiles and the two husbands makeout. AISHA then came.

AISHA: What up guys?!

Korvo: I just finish making the antidote. Luckily, it will reverse the effects. Oh Pupa?

Pupa giggles as he comes in. Pupa then jumps in a water tank as he laughs and splashes water.

Korvo: sing-songy Hold still!

Korvo pours the antidote into the water as it turns Pupa back into a normal pupa as he giggles

Terry: Pupa! Oh come here you sweet adorable bubble guppy! Did you have fun in the water?!

Pupa: giggles

Korvo smiles lovingly at his husband.

Korvo: kiss Terry on the cheek Now to check the details on the girls! checks the details on Amy, Monica and Sonya Okay. Amy and Monica are easy to fix, now check for Sonya… sees the details and gasp Oh no! No!

Terry: What? What is it?! What’s wrong?!

Phoebe: Korvo!

Korvo: Sonya must’ve stepped on another monster vile combined with cream! It’s now a permanent life source! She’s half-kraken now!

Terry: Shit!

Phoebe: gasp Oh my God! We better hurry on the girls!

Korvo: Don’t worry! As long as Amy and Monica are still on the jacuzzi, we might be able to pull this off.

But later, Sonya came out with breakfast for the girls, only to see them gone as she drops the tray and heads off to warn the others. Later, the family comes out and gasp as they look around for clues.

Human Jesse: See anything?

Human Korvo: Nope!

Human Yumyulack: Not yet! Keep looking

Suddenly, Human Terry sees a shirt. He reads it and growls as his eyes glow orange, because he now knows who took the girls.

Human Korvo: Terry? What is it?!

Human Terry: growling Look! shows the family the shirt

Human Korvo gasps. Then, the rest of the family looks at the shirt and gasp.

Human Yumyulack: Oh shit! The girls have been kidnapped and taken the same park we went for Monica’s party!

Human Jesse: Oh shit!

Human Korvo starts breathing in and out.

Phoebe: calms down human Korvo with a comfort hand on his shoulder We gotta stop him guys!

Then, Human Terry starts growling as his finger tips starts turning black.

Human Yumyulack: Right after we calm down Terry!

But it’s too late because Human Terry turns back into his Shlorpian form and turns into his Mundane form. Human Korvo gasp and comes up to soothe his face, which made Mundane Terry snarl as he looks at his husband.

Human Korvo: Shh… it’s gonna be okay Terry…

Mundane Terry starts breathing in and out as he began to calm down. He then whimpers which made Human Korvo in comofrt touch Mundane Terry’s face and Mundane Terry finally calms down as he turns back into his Shlorpian form and turns back into his human form as he smiles at his husband. The two husbands then makeout while moaning in love.

Human Jesse: Ew, gross!

Human Korvo: Now that’s better. Come on let’s go before- suddenly hears a crash

The family turn around and gasp see Sonya suddenly grown a bit bigger and grew a bit muscular and it has shown that she smashed the jacuzzi as she starts snarling. The family gasp

Human Korvo: Oh no! Sonya!

Modern Reylo AU Honey, I Shrunk the Kids manip

Rey knew that Ben wouldn't be back in an hour, so she took her chance jump in a cup of yogurt for a swim. What she didn't know… Ben returned 30 minutes earlier and he's hungry. He grabbed a spoon, start eating. Eventually, Rey was scooped up, so she screamed, hoping he'd notice her.

[the-scarecrow-of-aus]

I'm just waiting for one of the batkids to try and use the damaged 'gun' resulting in a 'honey I shrank the (bat)kids' moment!

•my bets either Tim thought he fixed the gun and tried to test fire it getting himself and everyone 'behind' him or being left in a broken state for so long caused the gun to heat up and go off while they were in an argument/training.

Highlights:

-cass having the time of her life using a literal bat as a flying mount! Also spotting the strange boy their size, secretly watching them when they reach the manor

-duke gorging himself on Alfred's cookies (one that was still on the desk)

-Dick, in-between using the furniture as a new gymnastics set, realising there was something odd about the doll house and realising there might be a way there to reverse it, suggesting to the others to adventure back up!

-Steph trying to do a whole 'hail, the savage conquerer!' bit in taming/defeating the wildlife (a mouse a spider, and a few other critters that tried to eat them) to assist their journey up to the mansion (it fails due to Alfred's pest control measures- they then almost get vacuumed during Alfred's regular 'clean away dirt from the hidden passageway doors routine)

-damian, once they reach the mansion, getting alfred the cat to finally help them move through the house, majorly cutting down on the time it would have taken them! (Alfred resisting the urge to chew on damian)

-Jason cursing the whole way that the stairs to the elevator is so far even asking if he can try to shoot the call button, there's also the problem that they can't seem to contact oracle or Bruce...

Danny currently wearing a ken shirt ellie forced him to wear while enjoying a drink on the balcony. see's them finally stumble up to the doll house: "well... when I told alfred he shouldn't expect more... I should have accounted for fenton luck?"

Oracle and bruce: there was a delay in helmet feed originally as it couldn't figure out the change of bandwidth (compressed) but she can see their trackers still in the bat cave. When bruce asked where everyone went however, she's probably filling her blackmail book as she tells him and alfred.

Alfred: quickly warning him not to run around or shout without a signal tracker while he immediately goes to the dollhouse to get some answers (finds Danny serving the batkids tea and cake -best way to impress alfred right?)

Basically, it’s discovered that to help stabilize Danielle, aka Ellie, it’d be best to have her be smaller. She refused to be turned into a kid by Frostbite/her own power ability, when Danny remembered the shrink ray his parents made. The side effect is that they’re kind of stuck as humans when they’re that small—they can use some ghost powers, but basically, it’s a weird side effect of the shrink ray. That’s canon, by the fucking way, lmao

Anyways, so Ellie agrees, and Danny will shrink himself with the ray to her size to help her out when needed/when she wants company her size, with Jazz, Sam, and Tucker occasionally helping out. Sam buys one of those really ornate Victorian dollhouses, with wooden everything, and Danny does some… renovations… so that it no longer opens and is a proper house. There’s still some oddities because it’s a dollhouse originally, but it was easier and faster to give her a home. One of the first additions was a water/wastewater system, followed like two hours later by an electrical system. Since it was so small, Danny was able to do it fairly quickly in his big size, occasionally going small and using the small window for using his powers to double check on things.

The water system had to be refilled every week, unless hooked up to a plumbing system in a house, which Danny made some outlets for in Jazz’s room—it was easier and had significantly less questions/didn’t stand out as much if placed in Jazz’s room. They usually did it every three days, though, as the plug-in process was still a bit… hinky. The tanks for holding the water were in the ‘basement’, which was mostly inaccessible from the inside of the dollhouse but basically looked like a big stand the dollhouse stayed on. Like someone ripped a full house out of the ground WITH the basement attached. There was a small access hallway down some stairs in the house for the clean water system, though.

The electric system was fairly simple, as it didn’t cost much energy to light a dollhouse and heat/cool water. There was an AC unit, Ellie’s request, but it hardly was used and was fairly efficient just due to pure size. It was fueled by ecto batteries, which Danny made sure had a few rechargability options—just because it was efficient energy didn’t mean it didn’t ever need recharging. There was a very small ecto filter, but due to its relative small size, was easy to clean and was fairly stable, so they had a whole closet of them just chilling out, both filled and empty. The battery itself could be charged by ecto sources, Danny’s own blood, or ambient ectoplasm gained by using something that looked like a solar panel and a satellite dish had a child that the batter could be placed in. The hookup also allowed for like… normal D cell batteries.

They would buy dollhouse furniture, and occasionally just buy the big version then shrink it down. Ellie had a huge old house to herself, basically, might as well go ham. And she had a fun time with the designer doll clothes Sam liked to get, although the cheap doll clothes from the store were also fun. Best option was just buying normal clothes and shrinking them, but using things that were already small or just making stuff using normal sized objects was fun.

At some point, though, the Fenton siblings decide to go on a trip. Ellie begs to be taken along, and Jazz agrees—there’s a doll showcase in Gotham, and Jazz wanted to see if anything caught Ellie’s interest. Danny, having a room in the dollhouse himself, also went along. Might as well make it a sibling’s trip, right?

Ellie can be full size for small chunks of time, which they did while exploring the expo. They found some cool things to add, and some doll clothes Ellie was far too interested in trying on, as well as some to force on Danny later. He sighed, but like—that’s his little cousin-sister, he’d put up with it. After all, he learned how to plumb an entire (miniature) house in two days when she refused to move in until it had a fully functional bathroom, so.

Anyways!

They have a fun time, and sure, lugging the relatively giant dollhouse was a PAIN, but it was Ellie’s home, and some stabilizing tech made it relatively safe to move without risking everything freaking breaking. They load everything in again, and the dollhouse is now restocked with clothes, tiny furniture, and a lot of shrunken supplies—some foods are just hard to work with full size, and are easier to shrink, okay? Also soap, paper goods, pencils and pens, books, etc. Jazz loads the thing into her car, and Danny offers to stay with Ellie in the dollhouse—so Jazz gets them in, and shrinks them down, holding onto the shrink ray in the meantime.

All is going relatively well in Gotham traffic until there’s a rogue attack.

Go figure.

Jazz ends up unconscious, and Danny and Ellie can’t do anything before the rogue is taken care of and a paramedic team comes up. They hide back in the dollhouse, listening as the medics say she seems to be okay, just unconscious. A relief, but now they’re taking Jazz away. Fenton luck states she’s one of the few actually injured. The Bat Brigade comes by, and Batman notices that there’s a wallet for one Danny Fenton. Red Robin confirms that Jazz was likely here with at least two other people, based on the ticket stubs for the expo. However, there is a strange lack of social media presence, Danny doesn’t have a photo ID, and there’s no way of knowing for SURE that it was just Danny with her, if it was just two other people, or if Danny was in the car with her. Still, as they can’t find him but DO have his sister and his wallet, they assume he might be missing, possibly kidnapped.

The Gotham PD of course take in the car, although it’s pretty trashed. Knowing well and good that the dollhouse and such things are actually quite expensive, Commissioner Gordon mentions that it wouldn’t be a bad idea for Batman to maybe hold onto the Fenton’s things that *aren’t* related to the investigation.

Batman just takes everything. Including a rather peculiar looking gun that seems to have sustained some damage during the attack and car crash.

Gordon sighs. Figures.

So, Danny and Ellie end up in Wayne Manor. Most of the things end up in the Batcave, but Alfred insists that they place the doll things upstairs in the manor proper—the cave isn’t *that* damp, but doll things are small and delicate. So, upstairs they go.

At first, it’s fine. Danny and Ellie are fine in the dollhouse, and it’ll be at least a week before any of the systems NEED to be worked with.

Then Ellie ends up with a massive migraine. She gets them, on occasion, a sort of growing pain. Usually, they just shrink some medicine for her as she needs it, because she’s like—twelve. While they did have some medicine that had been pre-shrunk, when they were stocking up in Gotham, it turns out pain medicine was more expensive there. Not by much, but they figured—they’ll just stock up in Amity Park, they’ll be there in two days.

Haha. Nope.

So, Danny finally has to venture out. He lucks into finding the first aid kit—why there was one in the main living room, he’s not sure—and is currently working on trying to get open the blister packet of an ibuprofen when Alfred finds him.

Alfred stares at this tiny boy with a tiny make-shift knife trying to get into… over the counter pain medication.

Danny stares at this butler guy who had very gently cleaned the outside and noted the strange fact that the dollhouse did not open.

Danny waves at Alfred.

Alfred waves a tiny finger back.

“Hello,” Alfred says softly, which is fantastic because loud noises could get painful—part of the reason for Ellie’s headache was an argument between Tim and Damian. “How do you do?”

Danny hesitates, before he makes an exaggerated so-so gesture.

“You understand me?”

Danny nods—it’s rare for people to understand what he’s saying when he’s 5 inches tall.

“How wonderful,” Alfred smiles. “And how can I help our young guest tonight?”

Danny gestures to the blister packet.

“Pain medication? Isn’t that a little bit large for you.”

The teen thinks for a second on how to communicate. He points to the pill, then makes a slight show of pretending to grind something, like a mortar and pestle.

Thankfully, Alfred got the idea. “Would it be easier if I ground it up for you?”

Danny takes a moment to think before accepting with an enthusiastic nod.

“Very well,” Alfred says, taking the blister packet in one hand. He then hold his other out, palm up, like a platform. “Would you like to come with me?”

Danny ‘his survival instincts died when he did’ Fenton gets into Alfred’s hand.

Alfred grinds up the pill into a fine powder. Danny hands him a tiny bottle—still large in Danny’s hands, as it was not a shrunk bottle—that he had tied around his waist. Alfred fills it, and hands it back.

“I assume you came from the tiny house we have in our living room?”

Danny again nods. Alfred takes him there, setting him down outside the front door. Danny bows, and sure it’s Japanese as hell, and he’s white as all get out, but it’s a generally understood gesture of thanks. He hopes.

Alfred understands it just fine. “I bid you goodnight, then. Perhaps we will talk more, when you are feeling better?”

Danny hesitates, again, but he nods. Alfred had been nice enough, so far.

Danny heads in, quickly measuring out the medicine—shrunk pressure plates and scales and weights made what it was measuring relative—to him the weights on the hand balance scale felt the same weight. Ellie got her medicine, and they both went back to sleep.

He told her in the morning what happened. Ellie was strangely gung-ho about meeting this butler guy, and so—when no one else was around—, she and Danny went onto the tiny balcony as Alfred came in to dust.

“Oh my,” he said. “There’s two of you, now. Should I expect more?”

Both of them did an exaggerated ‘no’ dance.

“Very well, I don’t believe I’ve introduced myself. I’m Alfred Pennyworth, the family butler. Welcome to Wayne Manor.”

i've always known - satoru gojo

[ satoru gojo - f!reader ]

✧ summary: you'd known each other since childhood, growing as close as two people could grow. there was not anything you didn't do together. but life doesn't always cooperate, creating hurdles even for the most tightknit relations ✧ cw: [MDNI] childhood best friends, afab!reader, college au, fluff!!, ofc some angst sprinkled in here, mentions of underage drinking, swearing, arguing, slightly ooc satoru maybe you be the judge, jealousy, poorly written eventual smut (be patient), fingering, p in v, unprotected sex, pet names, no use or y/n ✧ word count: 17.0k (yikes sorry)

⋆⭒˚｡⋆

You were six years old when you met him for the first time.

“Be nice and say hi, sweetie,” your mom spoke softly, only making you squeeze her hand harder and hide behind her.

“Hi,” you said more quiet than a whisper, if that was even possible, looking at the two strangers that had made themselves known.

But it wasn’t the unknown woman that had you so nervous, she seemed kind enough. It was the little boy next to her, a mop of crystal white hair hanging above his piercing blue eyes that were staring directly at you. With his hands stuffed into the pocket of his hoodie, he flashed you a toothless grin.

“Hello, I’m Satoru,” his tone chipper, almost like the line was rehearsed. You only stared at him with eyes big as globes before turning towards your mom again.

“Mooom,” you nagged, pulling at her sleeve. “Can we go back inside?”

“In a minute,” she reassured you before turning towards the strangers. “I’m sorry, the moving has been a lot for her,” she chuckled nervously, but the unknown lady only smiled at her.

“Oh, don’t worry about it,” she laughed kindly before turning to you. “I’m sure we’ll get to know each other with time.” She shot you a friendly wink, but you only shrunk further being your mom’s leg. Instinctively, she began to rub comforting circles on your back.

“We have no doubt,” she answered for you.

Still feeling Satoru’s eyes on you, you turned to him again. Instantly your eyebrows narrowed in annoyance, not understanding why he was still staring at you, like you were some kind of weirdo.

“I really came by to invite your family over for dinner tomorrow. Wish you welcome to the neighbourhood.” Your mother instantly beamed at the request.

“That’s so nice. We’d love too, right honey?” Shifting the focus to you again. You only shrugged, not daring to look away from the strange boy.

“Great. Just drop by anytime after five and we’ll be home.” The genuine smile only amplified the woman’s already gorgeous face.

Your mom broke the intense staring competition you had with Satoru with a slight shake of the hand. “Why don’t you tell them your name?”

Looking between the two strangers standing on your porch, you shyly mumbled your name, earning you another smile from the boy. What was his deal?

⋆⭒˚｡⋆

“Why don’t you show her your room, Satoru?” The man you assumed to be his dad had said nearly the second your family had stepped into their home.

You’d given your parents a pleading look, begging them to come to your rescue seeing as you were already attending the dinner against your will. With stern glares, you knew you had no choice but to follow Satoru.

With a safe distance behind him, you reluctantly followed him up the stairs, which lead to a door at the end of the long hallway. He was clearly a well mannered kid, surprising you as he actually held the door open for you to enter first.

Small steps lead you into his bedroom and your eyes instantly grew big in awe at the sight of the huge bedroom. It was probably twice the size of yours, filled with all the toys you could imagine. Strengthening your envy was the queen sized bed in the corner of his room, because you had always been told that big beds like that were for grown ups only.

But what captured your full attention was the bookshelves in the opposite side of the room filled with manga from the floor to the ceiling. Shuffling over to them, you let your eyes travel over the familiar titles, spotting all your favourite stories.

“Are all of these yours?” You asked, turning to see him already looking at you with his hands in his pockets. He simply nodded, a proud smile plastered on his face to reveal deep dimples on each side of his face.

Unfair, you thought to yourself. What you would give to have stacked shelves like that, so you’d be able to pick up a new manga the second you’d finished another one.

“How old are you?” The random question made you turn to look at him again, his pride shifted into curiosity with his head tilted.

“Six.” He instantly scrunched his nose, seriously unhappy with your answer.

“Hmm,” he scoffed, looking down at his feet. His reaction couldn’t help but offend you, crossing your arms over your chest and sticking your bottom lip out in a dramatic pout. “‘S not fair,” he mumbled as he kicked his feet.

“What isn’t fair?” You whined, drawing his eyes back to you.

“Well, I’m eight,” he complained, but that alone didn’t explain his tone. “So why are you taller than me?” Blinking at him in surprise, a small giggle began to take over your grumpiness. “It’s not funny!”

If your parents had seen you giggle in response to someone clearly upset, you would have earned yourself a strict scowl and a lesson when you got home. Lucky for you, they were downstairs mingling with their new neighbours, so the childish giggle came bursting out of you, causing your to slap both your hands over your mouth to contain yourself.

He knew you were teasing him, but he found himself enjoying the sound of your laugh a little too much to stay upset, his shoulders sinking and eyebrows raising in delight. A subtle blush dusted over his cheeks when he began to think he might just be a little smitten by you already.

Nonetheless, it was the start of your friendship. Throughout the dinner, the two of you held a never ending conversation, which surprised your parents considering how hostile you’d been to even the idea of getting to know the young boy next door.

Both of you put up a fight when it was time for you to leave once the clock had passed nine on a school night. You eventually had to settle for seeing each other again tomorrow. Still so excited to have a new friend, you couldn’t help but tell your parents everything you and Satoru had talked about.

“And he even said I could borrow his mangas if I wanted to!”

“That’s great, honey, but you really have to go to bed now!” Your mom chuckled as she followed you into the bedroom and tucked you in. “Why don’t you tell me the rest tomorrow, hm?” You nodded eagerly, before she placed a sweet kiss on your cheek and wishing you good night before leaving your bedroom with the door slightly ajar.

You wanted to drift into sleep, but you couldn’t find it in your body to rest. So like so many other nights, you walked over to your shelves to find something to read. You didn’t manage to get that far, when something outside your window caught your eye. Curiously making your way over, you climbed up on the stool, only to be staring right at Satoru standing in his own window directly across from yours.

It didn’t take long for him to spot you, instantly waving at you with his entire arm. With the same toothless grin you’d been greeted with the previous day, you waved back at him immediately before climbing back into bed more than satisfied.

⋆⭒˚｡⋆

You were ten years old the first time he got grounded because of you.

Over the years, you’d just grown closer and closer for each time you hung out, which was pretty much every day. It was just a given that you would see each other at one point or another throughout the day. And if, for some odd reason, you hadn’t gotten the chance to meet up, you would catch up in the evening from your windows.

There was not a doubt that you two had become best friends. His house felt like a second home, nearly spending more time there than your own home.

Sadly, Satoru’s classmates didn’t think it was cool for him to hang out with someone who was ten. Unlike them, you were a child… and a girl, which meant you brought cooties

“Waiting for your boyfriend,” a taunting voice cooed as it gradually came closer, capturing your attention to meet three boys you recognised from Satoru’s class.

“Not my boyfriend,” you mumbled to yourself, not wanting to give them the attention they so desperately wanted. Turning away from them, you tried to ignore their rapid approach. But before you knew it, they had you surrounded.

“You know, he doesn’t really like hanging out with you.” Glaring daggers at the boy standing right in front of you, you chewed the inside of your cheek in an attempt not to let him get to you. “He’s got better things to do than hang out with stupid girls.”

You tried to cling onto the advice your mother had told you time and time again; if you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all. But in this moment, that seemed like the worst possible advice. Why should you just stand there and take it when they were throwing all these mean words at you?

“You’re just upset you can’t get anyone to talk to you!” Your voice was venomous, but it didn’t seem to have any affect on him as they only snickered in response.

“Think you’re funny?”

“Just leave me alone!” You fired back, challenging his patronising look at you. For a few seconds, he held your stare before he launched forward and yanked your manga right out of your tiny hands. “Hey! Give it back!” Despite being as tall as the dumb boy, he managed to keep it just out of your reach, no matter how far you tried to stretch for it.

“I’m just having a look,” he laughed as he began to recklessly flip through the pages. From each side of you, you could hear both of his friends laugh to egg him on.

Panting and whining, you tried to reach for your book, but froze in place when you heard the sound of paper ripping. Staring at the manga in his hands, you saw how he had started to tear crumbled pages from the spine. With fake sincerity, he squeaked a small “ops” and continued to laugh. Unable to peer your eyes away from your favourite manga in pieces, the tears began to well up in the corner of your eyes. “Awe, are you crying?”

The tears didn’t have time to fall, when a familiar figure came zooming in front of you and crashing into your bully, instantly knocking him to the ground, causing him to scrape his knee. While he kept squirming on the ground, Satoru instantly snatched the book from his hands.

“I told you to leave her alone,” Satoru growled at the boy as he stumbled back on his feet, blood steaming through his torn jeans. His brows were narrowed in pure anger, telling you he was about to retaliate towards your friend, but Satoru sported a stern posture and a look that one would be stupid to defy.

Soon enough, it seemed like the pain set in after a few seconds, and the anger in his eyes turned glossy, trying to hide the fact that his bottom lip was quivering and his nostrils were flaring like he was about to cry.

Satoru shot an ugly glare at the two other boys, who didn’t seem sure what to do with themselves. “You want to taste the gravel as well?” Satoru threatened, the three boys sharing a worrying look. It didn’t take long before they decided to scatter with their tail between their legs. The boy who’d ruined your book, trying to conceal a limp but failing terribly.

The second they had their backs turned to you, Satoru turned his full attention to you with a softened expression, genuinely worried. “You okay?” He hurried to ask, scanning you from top to toe to see if there were any visible injuries. However it was only your pride, and your manga, that was wounded.

Looking down at his hands, the tears came back right away at the scene of the mangled book.

“I’m fine,” you said under your breath, eyes still glued to the manga. Struggling to find the right words to comfort you, his eyes jumped between your glistening eyes and the torn book in his hands.

“I have this one at home! You can have mine, I never liked it anyway,” he rambled as he began to wave the book around, growing more uncomfortable as he saw the small tears roll down your red and puffy cheeks. “And don’t worry about them! They’re just stupid! And jealous. And, and-“ his frantic words stopped in his throat, forming into a nervous lump when you flicked your eyes up to meet his.

Despite the redness in them and the sniffling of your nose, he couldn’t help but think you looked pretty. Which only made him feel even worse, that someone could be so cruel to you.

You shrugged your shoulders slightly, wiping away the snot and tears from your face. “Thank you for stopping them.” In defeat, you grabbed the manga out of his hands and stuffed it into your backpack, not caring if you ruined it any further.

“C’mon, let’s go home.” He placed a friendly hand on your shoulder, and you began to walk home like usual.

The walk home was mostly quiet, Satoru not daring to say anything, not knowing what to say. He wanted to help, make you feel better, but all the things that popped into his head just felt like it wouldn't be enough. So when you reached your house, you simply waved him goodbye before disappearing.

Once he entered his own home, his parents were on his neck instantly. They were furious, because they’d received an angry phone call from a distraught parent explaining how Satoru had purposely attacked their son.

Satoru had tried to explain the situation and defend himself, saying he couldn’t just let them pick on you like that. Somehow, the heroic gesture didn’t seem to outweigh when the kid had walked home with a bloody knee, bawling his eyes out.

“You never resort to violence, Satoru,” his father had yelled at him, before they told him he was grounded for a week. Satoru was speechless. He had never been grounded before, and he didn’t understand why he was being punished when he firmly believed he had done the right thing.

Unable to defend himself further, he stomped to his room and started his homework like he had been told to do. He didn’t get much work done though, as he mostly moped the entire evening, neurotically tapping his pen against the textbook.

You, much like Satoru, spent the entire evening in your bedroom. For the first two hours, you just laid in your bed, sulking. Eventually you wanted to talk to someone — not just someone, Satoru. You made your way to the windowsill, waiting for him to show. And you waited. And waited. And waited some more.

It wasn’t until you were about to head to bed you saw his silhouette cracking open the window slowly. Jumping up, you opened your window immediately. “I’ve been waiting all afternoon!”

“Shhh, you gotta keep it down,” he said softly, barely able to hear him. “I’m not allowed to talk to you right now.”

You raised an eyebrow in confusion. “What? Why?” Leaning forward in the window frame, resting your head on your forearms.

“I’m grounded,” he shrugged, checking over his shoulder every now and then to make sure no one came to check in on him.

“For what?”

“Because I shoved him. He ran like a crybaby, making it seem worse than it was.” He rolled his eyes dramatically, so incredibly frustrated by the outcome.

“Really? I can explain what happened to your parents-“ he waved his hands out the window to stop you.

“I tried. They were quite upset. But it’s no big deal. It’s just a week.”

“So, I won’t be able to see you for a week?” You complained, to which he only looked at you with big eyes. It hadn’t really hit him that he wouldn’t be able to hang out with you while he was grounded, which only made this terrible situation even worse.

Pursing his lips in thought, he opened his mouth again to speak. “Guess we’ll just have to be sneaky with window meetings at night,” he laughed, making you laugh along as well.

“I guess so.”

“I gotta go to bed before mom and dad finds me talking to you,” he sighed. “So, guess I’ll talk to you tomorrow night.” Before he managed to shut his window, you called his name again.

“Hey, Satoru?” Looking back at you with big eyes, you swallowed the lump in your throat. “Thank you for today. It really meant a lot!”

Looking at your glowing gratitude, he did not regret his actions for a single second. He even knew, should the opportunity arise, he would not hesitate to defend you again. He’d risk all the punishment in the world if it meant having you looking at him like that again.

“Good night, ‘Toru,” you smiled sweetly, his heart doing a small flip at the sound of his new nickname.

⋆⭒˚｡⋆

You were fifteen years old when Satoru finally grew passed you.

And once he passed you, it seemed like he never stopped. It wasn’t just you he passed, it was all his peers as well. And as he grew, so did his ego to match it. Of course, this also resulted in him endlessly teasing you.

“Imagine you used to be taller than me,” he laughed and placed his hand on top of your head.

“Yeah, and you’re the only one who cares,” you sighed, swiftly removing his hand from your head.

This all happened about the time you started high school, something Satoru had looked forward to since he himself first started high school. It finally gave you a chance to hang out during school hours, as you’d mostly been restricted to your classrooms in lower grades. He was also excited to introduce you to the small life he had there, which previously had been separated from you.

There was no doubt that Satoru Gojo, along with his small crew, were insanely popular. They basically ruled the school and they all welcomed you with open arms.

So, by association, you too became popular.

You fitted into his group perfectly, getting along with both Shoko and Suguru pretty much right of the bat. So he shouldn’t really have been complaining — except for the unforeseen circumstances that came with other people finally noticing you.

Ever since you were young, you hadn’t made a huge number of yourself, remaining somewhat anonymous, happy doing your only thing. Satoru had basically been your only friend. He knew he could never mention it to anyone, but he really enjoyed having you all to himself.

So when he noticed all the lingering looks you received just walking down the hall, some unfamiliar anger began to take shape in him.

Pretty much from your first day, he was bombarded with questions from his classmates. Who’s your friend? Is she single? Why aren’t you dating her? Will you introduce me? It got old real fast, and Satoru only found himself growing more and more frustrated by it, coming up with silly excuses to lead them in the opposite direction.

“Yeah, no, she’s- uhm, she’s single but her dad promised her a car if she doesn’t date ‘til she’s eighteen.”

They all gave him the same weird look. “If you’re seeing her, just say so.”

“No! We’re just friends!” He always rushed to defend himself, which always earned him a roll of their eyes before they shrugged off his weird behaviour. Lucky for him, his reputation saved him from anyone pushing it any further.

Despite his best efforts to keep guys at bay, there were still a few headstrong individuals who didn’t care about Satoru’s lame excuses or status, they still tried to pursue you. So to fend them off, he had other ways to make you seem unapproachable; excessive physical touch.

You never thought twice about it, as he had never been a stranger to physical touch. It wasn’t unusual for him to throw his arm over your shoulders when walking, or fidget with your fingers when he needed something to stimulate his agitation. You’d gotten so used to it over the years, that you’d simply grown accustomed to it.

After a while, most of the guys in school seemed to get the message that you were off limits. The hassle of his consistent protection for you combined with his position in the school, it just wasn’t worth it — that was ignoring some of the most persistent seniors, but he only found their attempts amusing as you so obviously found them disgusting.

Nonetheless, with time he could deem himself satisfied with the lack of male attention you received.

“So you’re joining us this weekend right?” Suguru, one of Satoru’s close friends, asked during lunch. You only narrowed your eyebrows at him in confusion. What you didn’t notice, was Satoru sitting beside you, furiously trying to stop Suguru from explaining further, glaring at him and waving his hands like a maniac.

“What’s this weekend?”

“Satoru didn’t tell you about the party?” A taunting smirk danced on his lips as he completely ignored Satoru’s disappointed glare. When you turned to question him, he immediately wiped off his disappointment and flashed you a shy smile.

“Party?”

“Yeah, I wasn’t really planning on going so,” he shrugged nonchalantly, trying to regain his ‘cool’ act.

“That’s not what you told us yesterday,” Shoko scoffed, a smirk matching Suguru’s plastered on her face.

It was in moments like these, you became incredibly aware of the age difference between the two of you. Sure, it was only two years, which you’d never thought much of — until you started high school. His interests and desires skewed in a more mature direction, which you weren’t necessarily ready for. It had become a lot more usual for him to go out with his friends during weekends. Even though he usually returned home early and met you at the window, it still sucked.

Did you want to go to the party? No, not really. But if you were being honest, you were absolutely terrified of Satoru slipping away from you if you weren’t able to keep up with him. Besides, you only felt guilt at the thought that he might have changed his mind about going because of you. So what harm could it do to attend, even if it was for just an hour?

“I mean, if you want to go,” you trailed off, wanting so much to seem natural about it all. “I don’t wanna stop you.” With a small shrug, you were almost certain to managed to seem casual.

“So that’s a yes?” Shoko cheered quietly from the opposite side of the table.

“I guess so,” a small chuckle leaving your lips.

Satoru, on the other hand, wasn’t as excited about you joining them as his friends. Nervously bouncing his leg under the table, he began to imagine all the things that could happen. He tried to tell himself the main reason he was so upset about the whole thing was that he was concerned something bad might happen, but in reality, he hated the idea of an arena for random dudes to hang over you all night.

You interrupted his spiralling when you suddenly raised from the table. “I have to run by the library before class,” you sighed before you rushed off, Satoru’s eyes never leaving you until you’d left the cafeteria.

“What is your deal?” Shoko laughed, drawing his attention back to the table. “Since when do you turn down a party, even if you leave after an hour?”

“I don’t know, just don’t think it’ll be her scene, that’s all,” he excused himself, picking at his food, suddenly not having an appetite anymore.

“I know you two, like, grew up together or whatever, and you have this strange need to protect her, but she’s able to take care of herself. You’ve seen how she talks to Fushiguro,” she laughed again.

“It’s not that,” he sighed, avoiding making eye contact with his friends.

“You remember what it was like to be a freshman. Things like these are exciting,” Suguru shot in. Satoru simply shrugged at his comment. “Look, we’ll all keep an eye on her. And you don’t drink anyways, so you’ll be more than sober enough to make sure she’s okay.”

“Yeah, whatever,” Satoru mumbled and stood up from his seat, still not looking at them. “I’ll see you guys later.”

And before you knew it, the weekend came rolling in and you found yourself clutching onto Satoru’s arm for dear life, scared you’d lose him in the crowd.

“We can leave if you want to,” he leaned down to say nearly the second you’d entered the house.

“No, no. It’s fine. Let’s just… find Shoko and Suguru.”

It was a lot to take in. People singing and dancing, chugging drink after drink. But your nerves calmed down when you felt Satoru’s strong hands squeeze yours in reassurance. And once you found the others, your body just felt a lot more at ease. It didn’t take long for you to actually enjoy yourself, even though you decided to stay away from the alcohol, at least for this time.

What wasn’t as enjoyable, was all the female attention Satoru received throughout the evening. It was no secret he was a popular guy, girls lining up to talk to him. But when it came to the girls at school, they mostly just gawked and giggled while he innocently entertained their interests. No, these girls were different. They had clear intentions of taking it further, giving him looks you did not appreciate.

And it bothered you. Oh lord, how it bothered you.

Sitting so close to you, his leg pressed up against yours, you sadly got a front row view of when the girls leaned over and batted their long eyelashes at him, flashing him seductive smiles. You were beyond uncomfortable, trying to look anywhere but scene taking place mere inches from you.

You had no reason to be upset — you were only friends and you’d only ever been friends. Never had the idea of anything else crossed your mind, but you hadn’t ever witnessed ladies glue themselves to him like this before.

“Hey, you okay?” Satoru interrupted your thoughts, turning over to see he was focused on you, the girl at his side quirking an eyebrow.

“‘M fine,” you mumbled, a small smile drawing at your lips. He scanned your face, taking a deep sigh in thought, reading you so clearly.

Out of nowhere, Satoru jumped up from his seat, holding his hand out for you to grab. He wore that award winning smile of his as he opened his mouth, “come on.”

A smile grew on your face to match his as you eagerly let him pull you off the couch before he playfully threw his arm over your shoulder, leading you out the living room. As you walked, you swore you could hear the girl he talked to earlier scoff.

“How does ice cream sound to you?” Looking down at you as he shielded out the tight crowd as he lead you out the door.

And as the two of you left the party, there was laughter on your lips and a genuine, special joy in your eyes you seemed to have reserved only for each other. Shoko and Suguru, however, kept a confused eye on you as you exited the house.

“I’ll never understand them,” Shoko shook her head, before turning to look at her friend who seemed just as frustrated by you and Satoru as she was. “I mean, they’re clearly into each other, right?”

Suguru exhaled sharply through his nose in what sounded like it was supposed to be a chuckle. “It’s weird if they aren’t.”

“When he talked about her before, I just figured they were best friends, like he said. But after meeting her and seeing them together-“

“No, I agree,” Suguru laughed before she was able to finish her sentence. “I’ve never seen ‘best friends’ act like they do.” Shoko nudged his side with her elbow to bring his attention to the girl Satoru had flirted with seconds before he had just stranded her alone on the couch, to see she was pouting, arms crossed over her chest as she stared at the door like she was waiting for him to return.

“Neither has she,” she laughed.

⋆⭒˚｡⋆

You were seventeen years old the first time you had your heart broken. Really broken.

Standing outside your boyfriend — no scratch that. Standing outside what was now your ex boyfriend’s front door, you tried to wrap your head around what had just happened, silent tears falling slowly down your face.

It had come out of no where. Yesterday, everything had seemed fine, and now he had suddenly come to the conclusion that you were no longer a good match? It made no sense.

Shaking your head as you took a deep breath, you knew there was only one person who might be able to help you feel a little better. Not to mention, he was probably the only person in the universe right now you could stand to see at all.

The fifteen minute walk from where you’d just had your heart stomped on to your neighbourhood had never felt longer. The silence that filled the dark and abandoned streets was numbing, leaving more room for the self deprecating thoughts to fill your mind. What had you done wrong? What could you have done differently? Was there someone else, someone prettier and funnier than you? Had you not been dedicated enough?

Despite the insane sadness that filled you, you thought if it were to happen, this weekend was probably the best timing, seeing as you wouldn’t have been able seek comfort had it happened any other time. Having taken a gap year after high school to earn money, Satoru worked a lot but he had for once gotten a weekend off. And his parents were out of town on some conference, meaning there was no risk of either of them opening the door to greet your grief struck face.

Soon enough you found yourself in front of the familiar front door, a tiny lump forming in your throat as you placed three soft knocks on the door. Before you knew it, Satoru stood right in front of you, his initial reaction of joy melting away once he processed you were upset.

“What happened?” His voice was so soft, eyes filled with worry.

“Can I come in?” Your voice was barely louder than a whisper.

“Yeah! Of course.” He stepped aside, letting you pass him and enter his home. “You want anything? Is this like an ice cream kinda situation, because I think we have some cookie dough flavoured in the freezer.”

A broken chuckle slipped out of you, followed by a sob. “No, thank you, I’m fine. Just needed to see you,” you sniffled furiously.

“Yeah, sure.” Without saying another word, you simply helped yourself up the stairs and to his bedroom. His eyes never left you as you carefully sat down on his bed and he sat down on his desk chair.

Uncomfortable wasn’t necessarily the word he’d use for seeing you like this, because it had happened before — just not very often. You’d always been a quiet charmer, if there was a way to describe it. Out of the two of you, he’d always been the loud and outgoing one, but he definitely saw you as the one who spread the most joy to those around you, a natural sense of cheerfulness radiating from you. Not to mention you were usually the one who stood for the comforting and advice, meaning he was at a loss on what to do.

“What happened?” He asked carefully.

“We broke up.” The words left you so quickly and easily, Satoru had to blink a few times to realise what you’d just said. “Or he broke up with me is probably more correct.” You avoided his gaze, staring directly at your hands tucked between your thighs, the tears leaving dark circles on your jeans.

“I thought things were going well.”

“So did I.” You wiped your nose with the back of your hand, still sniffling like crazy. “I know you never liked him and didn’t get along with him but I really liked him, y'know?”

A pang of guilt came crashing in over Satoru. He hadn’t been subtle about his dislike for your boyfriend, and it started before the two of you even became official. He did not miss the opportunity to throw a snide comment about him when you brought him up or constantly quarrel on the few occasions they were in the same room. But he couldn’t help it.

Satoru had been so focused on all the guys lining up for you in school, he hadn’t even thought of the boys that might find their way to you from elsewhere.

He still remembered the evening you came home from work at the coffeehouse, such a sweet smile on your face and a blush across your nose when he’d met you at the window that night. So giddy over this cute boy who’d chatted you up and ended up getting your number. Had Satoru known then he’d break your heart this badly, he’d tried harder to shut it down.

“I know I gave him a hard time, but I know you liked him,” he tried to comfort you. “And I’m certain he cared for you too. It’s hard not to.”

“Urgh, I’m such an idiot,” you cracked, hiding your face in your hands as the sobs just tumbled out in one steady stream.

“Hey,” Satoru said, rushing out of his chair to crouch in front of you. Tenderly he grabbed ahold of your wrists to remove them from your face, carefully trying to dry the tears away. “You’re not an idiot, okay?”

A small scoff made its way out of you between the sobs. “I’m not even sure he ever cared about me.”

When your name rolled off his tongue with more compassion than you’d ever heard from him before, your eyes snapped up to meet his. “Listen to me! I am certain he did. I know what you dedicated to that relationship, and he’d be crazy not to care for you. Not just crazy, but a damn magician as well because it’s genuinely impossible. Believe me, I know.” A small smile grew on his lips when he heard he was able to draw a small chuckle out of you. “You’re not an idiot. You just have a big heart. And he’s the idiot if he thinks he should let it go.”

He dried what seemed to be one of your last tears with his thumb, before tucking some of your hair behind your ear. His caring gaze traveled your face, taking in every detail he could when the memory from when you were kids popped into his mind. Just like that time, looking at you all red and puffy, he again found himself thinking you were pretty. Not just pretty — beautiful.

“Thank you, ‘Toru,” you whispered.

“Any time.”

“Can I stay here tonight?”

“Scandalous,” he said dramatically, earning him another shy smile from you. Both of you knew you didn’t have to ask, having slept over hundreds of time throughout the years.

“Who knew you were so good at this,” you smiled weakly as he stood up to go get the extra duvet he had in his closet, which was basically just an extra duvet for you.

“Pfft, I am Satoru Gojo after all. Is there anything I can’t do?” He flashed you a proud grin, instantly rolling your eyes at him.

“You’re not the greatest cook last time I che-“ before you were able to finish your sentence, a pillow came crashing into your face. A lighthearted giggle escaped you, and again Satoru felt his heart flutter a little, so pleased he’d managed to brighten your terrible evening a little bit.

“Watch it, sweetheart, or I’ll have you sleep on the floor.”

“You would never,” you smiled before grabbing one of Satoru’s t-shirts, like you always did, and headed for the bathroom.

Once you met your reflection in the mirror, your eyes grew as all the signs of tonight’s sorrow was incredibly visible on your face. And to think Satoru had seen you like this, knowing he’d tease you endlessly about it once things settled down and you could laugh about it all.

Your eyes were swollen from all the crying, mascara lines down your puffy cheeks. Still sniffling, you cleaned your face, dabbing a hot cloth in hopes you might redeem some of your dignity as you washed away your heartbreak. Looking in the mirror, a sigh left you knowing that this was probably as good as it was going to get. At least you didn’t have makeup smeared all over your face anymore.

Shuffling back into his bedroom, wearing his t-shirt nonetheless, a small lump formed in his throat at the sight of you as he had to fight the urge to let his eyes indulge in your entire figure. What was going on? A million times had you spent the night, and a million times had you gone to bed wearing his shirt, yet tonight felt different. He felt there was something in the air that had shifted, but it went unsaid. So without another word, he simply made his way passed you and to the bathroom. You, on the other hand, paid no attention to his odd behaviour, simply laying down on the bed on the side closest to the wall, your side.

Despite not picking up on his averted gaze, you too sensed there was something in the atmosphere that seemed different than usual, but you couldn’t quite put your finger on what. You could easily just blame the breakup, which was definitely lingering in the air, but you knew that wasn’t quite it either. There was something in the tension that you felt were directly connected to Satoru.

When you felt his weight press down on the bed next to you, you reactively turned to look at him, surprised to see he was already laying on his side looking right back at you. Staring deeply into your eyes, you felt as if he was trying to tell you something but you couldn’t make it out.

Same went for Satoru, as he felt it deep down that there was something he needed to tell you but he had no idea what it was, only that it weighed heavier on him now that the evening had been so emotional and raw.

“‘Toru?”

“Hm?”

“What was it about him you didn’t like?” Satoru couldn’t help but smirk somewhat shamefully.

“It’s not important,” a slight chuckle slipping out of him.

“With a smile like that, you have to tell me.” Satoru readjusted his head on the pillow, ending up even closer to your face than intended but neither of you pulled away.

“Well, I like it best when I have you to myself.”

“Please,” you scoffed, tucking one of your hands under your cheek, carefully tilting forward a little. “That’s ridiculous, even for you.”

“No, I’m serious,” he gave you a sweet smile. “We’ve been so close for so long, it’s weird suddenly having to share you.”

You took a deep sigh, your heart skipping a small beat at his answer. “Well, I had to share you first.”

His eyebrows instantly pinched together into a frown, a humorous smirk on his lips. “Excuse me?”

“So you’ve forgotten when you first started high school? It was always ‘Suguru this’ and ‘Shoko that’.”

“That’s not the same,” he mocked you.

“How’s that not the same?” Offended at his disregard for your experience of him suddenly having a bigger social circle, you knew it was all in a playful manner.

“Because-” was all he managed to get out before you noticed his eyes betraying him as they quickly glanced down at your lips, before looking back into your eyes. Drawing a sharp breath, you swore you might be able to spot a strong blush heat his face, but it was too dark to tell for sure.

He exhaled a shaky breath, which you felt brush against your face making you realise just how close you were to each other.

All the hairs on your body stood up when you felt his light touch brush against your arm that was resting between you. Was this weird? You didn’t know. It wasn’t like it was the first time he’d touched you like this, so what was making tonight so different?

One slight movement and your noses would grace against each other. He could do it, he could just tilt his head forward and his lips would connect with yours and he was certain it would be delicious. Your eyes had captured his gaze, and he felt as if he could stare into them forever-

No, stop!

You flinched at his sudden movements when he pulled away to turn around, with his back facing you.

His heart sunk into his stomach, mentally cursing himself now that he wasn’t facing you anymore. He couldn’t believe he had actually wanted to kiss you, his best friend. It wouldn’t be right, especially not tonight when you were as vulnerable as you were. He’d be a complete asshole to take advantage of that. Not to mention how embarrassed he would have been in the morning when you weren’t trapped under the haze of heartbreak and would have realised how much of a mistake it had been.

“Good night,” he said in his usual, cheerful tone and the curse was broken.

The next morning, you’d woken up to an empty bed, much like you always did when you spent the night. What was out of the ordinary, was seeing him in the kitchen in full swing serving pancakes and ice cream calling it “the breakfast for breakups”.

You couldn’t tell if you were hurt or not by how he was acting, as if last night never happened. Was he not going to mention how close the two of you had been to locking lip? He simply went about the morning, just as happy as he always was.

And never brought it up.

⋆⭒˚｡⋆

You were eighteen years old when you and Satoru fell apart.

Satoru had left for college, and at first you’d been so lost on what to do. For the first time since you were six, he wasn’t immediately at your side.

You remembered the day he left so clearly, clinging on around his neck, refusing to let go because you didn’t want him to get in his car and drive off, unsure when you’d see him again. When the two of you eventually managed to break the hug, you heard a not so subtle sniffle and spotted faint redness around his eyes.

“Don’t tell me you’re crying, ‘Toru,” you teased in between your own sniffles.

“You got me there,” he said with a sad chuckle slipping out, surprising you that he didn’t even attempt to fire back, just surrendering to his emotions. “Gonna miss you.”

“Gonna miss you too,” you whispered in response. Not much more was spoken before he drove off, like it all was just too much for either of you to talk about.

The first few days you didn’t do much else than lay in bed and wait for him to call, like he promised he would. And exactly at 8 pm, your phone lit up with his name where he told you all about how hectic his days were — and he wasn’t sure if he’d be able to have daily calls anymore once the semester started for real.

“No, of course. I mean, I go back to school soon too so.”

And as the time went on, the calls got more and more rare. From every day, to three times a week, once a week, until you were lucky it happened every fourteen days.

Even though you hated it, you couldn’t blame him. Of course he was busy, he had an entirely new everyday life filled with classes and new people. And when he did make time for the phone call, you couldn’t help but feel genuine happiness when you heard how excited he was about all of it. But you knew you couldn’t keep sitting around sulking as you waited for his call. You decided you had to be okay without him.

It was your senior year after all — it was your time to shine, and you were still with the popular crowd even though Satoru wasn’t there anymore. Now you finally had the opportunity to get to know them better.

Turned out you had more in common with them than you thought, getting particularly close with the girls of the group. And it was refreshing to have girl friends, who seemed to match some of your interests in a way Satoru never managed to. Your horizons just expanded, your schedule packed nearly from morning until night. Not to mention your weekends were also busy. The parties you and Satoru usually left early or skipped all together, had become fun.

This weekend was no different. Sitting at your vanity doing your makeup for the evening when you heard your mom’s voice yell from downstairs. “There’s someone here to see you.”

“Just send her up,” you yelled back. But when you turned around to face who you thought was your friend who was coming to get ready with you, your jaw dropped at the sight of the tall figure standing there instead.

“Her? Not the last time I checked,” Satoru smiled.

“Oh, my god, ‘Toru!” You squealed in excitement, running at him as you threw your arms around him in a tight hug, smiling even harder when he hugged you back just as firmly.

When he let you down, your eyes was instantly drawn to his. It’s been so long since you’d been able to stare into those captivating, blue eyes, and now you melted having them look down on you for the first time in months. Now that you were finally able to see him again, to touch him again, it hit you like a semi truck just how much you had missed him. You even found yourself getting a little emotional, blinking away the wetness in your eyes.

“God, don’t wanna ruin my makeup,” you laughed.

“I was just about to say, you look great,” he said, unable to peer his eyes off you, because ‘great’ was an understatement.

“Why, thank you,” you beamed at him, a smile stretching from one ear to another.

“Going somewhere?” His eyebrows narrowed, letting his chipper composure slip for just a second but he quickly tried to shake it off.

“Yeah, there’s a party tonight. The group’s going, but I can cancel if-“

“No, of course not. I’m home all weekend.” There was a slight twinge in your heart, disappointed that he didn’t have the guts to accept your offer. There was not a single ounce of doubt that you’d drop the party for him in a heartbeat — you had after all longed for him to come home to visit since the second his car had driven out of view the day he left.

“Well, maybe you could come along?” You suggested, grabbing his hands in yours.

“I just think I’m going to stay home with my parents tonight,” he swallowed, giving you a weak smile.

He knew he should have just taken you up in the offer to ditch the party, but he didn’t have the heart to, especially when you were all dolled up for the evening already.

All he’d looked forward to was come home and hang with you and catch up all night, never falling asleep because he had missed your voice so much. But he knew that eventually, the guilt would eat him up, hogging you for the night when you were supposed to be somewhere else.

Now he had to sit at home, alone and bored, because he had lied when he told you about his parents, seeing as they weren’t back in town until tomorrow. He knew he would spend the night miserable, but it would beat having to tag along at your heels to a party he didn’t want to attend in the first place and witness how close you’d gotten to all your new friends while he’d been away, still preferring to have you to himself.

“Will you at least stay until I leave? And then I’m all yours for the whole of tomorrow?” For the time being, he managed to let his blues slip away, especially when you gawked at him with a sparkle in your eyes and an infectious smile.

“Of course.” His eyes followed your cheerful walk back to your vanity as he sat down on your bed. Once seated, your conversation flowed like normal, as if no time had passed at all since the last time you saw each other. He told you about classes and how much more difficult it was now, especially seeing as he wasn’t the biggest fan of studying.

And he knew he should be excited when you told him everything about your new life. How you’d finally taken the time to get the know the rest of the group and how great they all were, how fun you had it with all of them with all the stuff you guys did in your spare time, but he’d be lying if he said it didn’t sting. He felt as if he was missing everything, losing the spot he used to have with you, replaced by his old friends. He knew it was unfair to think that way, but but there was no stopping his doomed spiralling.

“Oh, and that’s probably her coming now!” You perked up when footsteps could be heard coming up the stairs. The next second, a girl he knew used to be in his friend group stood in the doorway.

“Satoru? What a pleasant surprise,” she beamed at him, and guilt hit him when he couldn’t even remember her name.

“Yeah, just home for the weekend,” he smirked at her.

She flashed him another smile before turning to you. “You ready?”

“Just about,” you sighed. Quickly, you grabbed your purse and skipped over to Satoru. “See you tomorrow, okay?” You said cheerfully as you placed a quick peck on his cheek before running out, leaving him standing alone in your bedroom.

He stared dumbfounded at the empty space you occupied just seconds ago, still surprised by the kiss as it was something completely new. Was that something you’d picked up from the group? Did that mean you went around kissing everyone’s cheeks? His mind ran crazy with questions, all making him equally jealous.

⋆⭒˚｡⋆

“Pick up, pick up, pick up,” you whispered into the phone still ringing. It was the third time you had tried to call Satoru and he still hadn’t picked up, which was incredibly unlike him. He always picked up almost immediately, especially when you were calling.

“Hey,” you finally heard him sigh on the other end of the line.

“Thank god you answered,” you said, teeth chattering in the freezing cold. “Could you please, please, please pick me up?”

“You okay?” There was a hint of worry in his voice, but you had a sneaking suspicion he was trying to conceal it.

“No. Or yes. Or I don’t know, but I’m cold and I need to go home!” Another sigh.

“Where are you?”

“You’re my angel,” you breathed before giving him the address.

“I’ll be there in fifteen.” Before you managed to say goodbye, Satoru had already hung up. You stared blankly at the phone for a few seconds in shock of his abrupt ending, but right now, you were too cold to ponder any further on his behaviour. Tightly having folded your arms around yourself and rubbing your legs together, you desperately tried to get some heat in your body.

Finally, you saw the familiar car pull up in front of you, a sigh of relief leaving your body once you were greeted by the hot air as you sat down in the passenger seat.

“You’re really a life saver,” you spoke as you leaned your head back on the headrest, waiting to meet his eyes but he never turned to look at you. His eyes were glued to the road, a tight grip on the steering wheel as he kept chewing on the inside of his cheek. “You okay, ‘Toru?”

“‘M just fine,” he answered simply, still fixated on the road.

“Then why won’t you look at me?” You snorted, which made him quickly turn his head to give you a cold glare before looking at the road again.

“How come you were standing out in the cold all alone?” When he didn’t acknowledge your question further, you just fell back into your seat again and decided not to take it any further.

“You don’t wanna know,” you sighed, staring out the window.

“No, I’m curious.” If his tone told you anything, it was that he was pissed. You just hoped it wasn’t directed at you.

“I was kicked out.”

“What, too drunk to be in the house?” His comment caught you off guard at it seemed nothing but spiteful. You flipped your head to look at him again, only to see he was still unwilling to look at you.

“Do I seem too drunk to you?” He only shrugged, knowing the answer was ‘no’. “If you wanna know, I-“ you stopped yourself from finishing, too embarrassed to utter the words.

“Don’t get shy on my behalf.”

“I was about to sleep with someone, but after we undressed, something came over him and he just threw me out,” you complained, crossing your arms and staring at the road like he had earlier.

“You what?” Satoru exclaimed, and now he finally decided to shoot you a glare. “Who?”

“Does it matter?” You shrugged, avoiding his gaze which you knew was just purely judgemental. It seemed he was more upset about the part where you were going to sleep with someone than the fact that you were literally thrown out, which only ended up fuelling your own anger.

“Who was it?” He repeated sternly.

“Just some guy I met there, I don’t know,” you shrugged, and instantly a loud huff left Satoru.

“Wow,” he said in utter disbelief. “So this is who you are now.” Finally turning to look at him again, your face hot with anger, you saw his eyebrows were raised in frustration and his tongue was poking the inside of his cheek.

“What’s that supposed to mean?”

“Never knew you to be someone who just spread your legs for anyone.” You gaped at him, not believing the words coming out of his mouth.

“Stop the car,” you managed to force out somewhat calmly through gritted teeth.

“I’m not stopping-“

“Stop the fucking car, Satoru,” you practically yelled at him, startled when he suddenly slammed the breaks. Once the car had stopped, you didn’t hesitate to unbuckle your seatbelt and scramble out of the car, hearing him call your name before you slammed the door shut after you.

With your arms wrapped around yourself, you started to walk down the street in the direction of your house, knowing you were still pretty far from home. But you knew you were too furious to get back in the car with Satoru.

“Come on, get back in the car,” Satoru’s voice complained down the street.

“So you can slut shame me some more? Think I’ll pass,” you shouted back. It took only a second until you heard the car engine shut off before hurried footsteps against the wet pavement made its way over to you, Satoru positioning himself right in front of you.

“Fine, sorry, please get back in the car,” he said disingenuous, scowling down at you with his hands in his pockets.

“You expect me to accept that apology?” You scowled right back at him.

“Stop acting like a brat and just-“

“Brat? Really?” You interrupted him, raising your eyebrows at him. He opened his mouth to say something, but closed it just as quickly with a deep sigh. “Thought so.” Keeping your mean glare at him, you tried to walk past him, but he surprised you by taking a strong grip of your arm.

“So is this like a weekly occurrence now?” You forcefully pulled out of his grip.

You simply shrugged while trying to find the right answer, wanting to keep your own anger in check even though you felt you were close to boiling over. “I mean, there’s something happening every weekend but that doesn’t mean I always participate.” He only scoffed, turning away from you and looking around the street. “What?”

“So now you’re just this crazy party girl that sleeps with anyone that’s available?”

You truly couldn’t believe it was Satoru saying these words to you, your best friend in the entire world. The person you’d known most your life, who knew your every deepest, darkest secret and had never judged you in the slightest — suddenly throwing mean words right to your face like you were just some nobody.

“Like you’re one to talk! You flirt with any girl that has a pulse, and not just in school. Remember, you went to parties too and enjoyed wallowing in the attention of anyone who’d give it to you!”

“I never liked going to parties. I still don’t,” he sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose.

“Glad to see some things hasn’t changed, unlike the fact that you’ve turned into an asshole,” you spat at him, trying to walk away again, but he yanked a hold of you once more.

“Well, I’m not the only one who has changed,” he said in a low voice, giving you a stern look through his eyebrows.

A light laugh of disbelief escaped you, the tears quickly starting to well up in your eyes. Was this really the same person you’d physically been unable to let go off five months ago? The one person you believed could never intentionally hurt you the way he was now?

“That’s what this is about, isn’t it?” Flickering between his eyes, you knew you’d caught on. “Did you really think I was going to sit around and wait for you?”

“I certainly didn’t expect you to go and replace me the first chance you got.”

“Replace you?!” You exclaimed before the entire sentence had left his lips.

“Yes, replace me!” He fired back, his tone more angry than he wanted it to be, because sadness was all he truly felt.

“So you haven’t gotten any new friends at university?”

“That’s different-“

“Oh my god, Satoru,” you moaned in frustration, your hands rubbing your face. “I am so tired of you saying it is different for you! You’ve done that for years.”

Satoru had his hands deeply tucked in his pockets, his shoulders up to his ears with tension. He was already filled with guilt for talking to you this way, something he’d never done before. Then again, he couldn’t remember having this many negative feelings regarding you running wild in him.

“It’s baffling to me that you’re actually saying all these things to me, like it isn’t you that keep postponing our phone calls.” You said, your tone transformed from anger into the sorrow that had taken residence in you instead.

He breathed your name, almost like he seemed disappointed in a way. “Classes are riding my ass.”

“You don’t think I know that?” You fired back immediately, your tone remaining calm as you continued to hold back the tears. “But truth is, it has caused you to not make time for the phone calls.”

“You can’t expect me to be able to make time-“

What seemed to be the mix of a sob and a scoff parted your lips, cutting him off. It was like talking to a brick wall, because it felt like nothing you said reached him.

Had he always been like this? Too wrapped up with his own idea of being right that he took no regards for your opinion? If so, how had the two of you managed to go all those years without you properly realising it?

“If you haven’t been paying attention, it’s not me that’s had too many expectations, but you!”

His head fell back, retrieving his hands from his pockets to fold them over his chest. As his entire posture turned loose, you couldn’t bare to look at him when the first tear fell. He just seemed to be so sick of this conversation — sick of you — an idea that made you want to throw up on the spot.

“You’re being unreasonable,” he said in a low voice, as if he knew he was in the wrong but too stubborn to back down. He’d already been so cruel, a part of him feeling like he had already gone too far to double down now.

“I’m being unreasonable?!” You snapped, walking right up to him, now close enough to feel the heat radiate off him. “You’ve got to be fucking kidding with me?”

Never in a million years could you have predicted your favourite person in the universe to speak to you this way, biting your head off for simply living your life. But it went deeper than being upset about you going to some random party. It seemed like he truly disliked the person you were right now, and nothing had ever hurt you as much.

“For the record, I did wait. So many nights I just sat in my room, staring at the damn phone, waiting for you to call.” You were sobbing now, all restraints of your tears out the window. “But I think you’re not half as busy with your studies as you claim to be, but very busy making new friends, which is why it’s nothing but cruel of you to go at me like this!”

“You always do that!” He snapped, causing your sobs to halt for a second, eyebrows quirking up in surprise. “You always assume these things about me, paint me out to be this specific person without having all the facts.”

“I know you better than I know myself, for fucks sake! You hate to work, avoid it for all that it’s worth, and now you’re trying to tell me you work so hard?” Silence. “And you’ve always loved attention. You feed on it, and every single living person on this planet can’t help but just give it to you! I’m willing to bet my last dime you’re surrounded with all sorts of people just fighting for your time!”

Without stuttering, you fired shot after shot, feeling bad even though every last word of it was true.

The reality of the fight washed over you, knowing you’d never fought like this before. A friendship spanning twelve years was doomed to have some disagreements along the way. And with both you and Satoru having such strong personalities, there had been quite a few. But never had either of you ever turned mean, like right now, no matter how serious the argument had been.

“Despite what you might think, I’m not one of your silly school girls who just follow you around to stroke your ego. I’m my own person, always have been. And I’m sorry you’re pissy about the fact that I’m doing fine without you here and I’m sorry that the image you had of me is finally shattering.”

You felt you’d gotten what you had on your mind off your chest, and all that fell out of you now were uncontrollable sobs. Not only were you absolutely devastated, but you were scared. The person that stood before you didn’t feel like someone you knew, meaning you had no idea what might come out of his mouth next.

“Think I see you clearer than ever.”

Sucking your bottom lip in between your teeth, you tried to choke back your sobs, not feeling he was worthy of hearing the affect he had on you right now. You slowly began to nod your head, looking about for a few seconds before you simply began to walk away without saying another word. And this time you didn’t feel his hand grab your arm.

The second your head had hit the pillow after you’d gotten home, you erupted into loud, unruly sobs, that even managed to wake your parents. They stormed into your room, beyond scared something was terribly wrong, and your mom managed to pull your head into her lap, stroking your hair in an attempt to get you to calm down so you’d be able to tell them what had happened, but to no prevail. While she desperately tried to hum you to peace, your dad stood watching in anguish as he had no clue what to do in order to help.

Eventually, the sobs wore you out to the point where you fell asleep in her lap.

Waking up the next morning, you’d felt like it had all been just a horrible nightmare, and in just a few minutes, Satoru would stand at your door, so excited to just do absolutely nothing with you like you had planned.

But you sat in your bed and stared at the door, waiting for him to show up but he never did. When you became restless, you paced around the room, daring to glance out the window in hopes you’d spot him sitting by his windowsill. But here too, you were left disappointed. No Satoru shaped silhouette made himself known, and at some point during the day, he had shut the blinds without you noticing.

Two days later, your mom came into your room and asked why Satoru had left to go back to university already when you guys hadn’t hung out yet.

⋆⭒˚｡⋆

You were twenty years old when you started university.

After a therapeutic gap year of working and travelling, you were finally ready to go back to school, excited to see what the life of a university student was all about.

So far it all seemed to go as smoothly as one could hope for — moving in and setting up in your small dormitory, putting in a lot of effort to make it a space where you could feel at home. Signing up for classes and getting all the books you needed was easier than expected, some kindhearted strangers more than willing to help you get it all right. And lastly, finding your way around campus wasn’t nearly the issue you thought it would be. You easily manoeuvred your way around the grounds, quickly coming across spots you could picture yourself just hanging out.

You were more than prepared by the time the first class rolled around, entering the huge auditorium, nervously walking down the stairs and sitting down in an available seat in one of the rows closer to the front.

Suddenly it began to dawn on you that you were actually in university, working your way to a future career like you’d always talked about. All your hard work in school, your academic achievements, finally paying off, letting you be in environment of equally dedicated individuals.

However, even though your peers seemed to be on the same level as you academically, you got the impression they had excelled passed you socially already. As you let your eyes roam the crowd, you noticed how people had already made friends and even formed groups, greeting each other with warm smiles as they sat down together.

You didn’t have the chance to brood about it for too long, as a roaring voice spoke up from the front of the classroom, drawing everyone’s attention to him, the chatter quickly quieting down. The assertive figure introduced himself before heading straight into the plans for the semester, asking if anyone had any questions. While a few students raised their voice, you just desperately wrote down everything being said, just in case it might be useful somewhere down the line.

“I look forward to teach you this introductory class in education. I’m sure you’ll make great teachers one day,” he smiled. “Before we get started, there’s someone I’d like to introduce. I have the privilege of being assigned a TA this semester — come on up.”

Everyone’s eyes followed the professors gesture towards the person who’d just gotten up from his chair by the exit. All the air was immediately sucked out of your lungs when your eyes landed on the one person you hadn’t expected to see.

“Good morning everyone,” he said in his characteristically suave voice, hearing the girls in the auditorium instantly begin to whisper amongst them at the sight of him. “I’m Satoru Gojo, I’ll be the professors teacher assistant this semester. Any questions you might-“

The words instantly died in his throat when his gaze landed on you, tensed up in your seat. He could almost see you shiver under his intense glare.

Nearly two years had passed since the last time he saw you, and not a day had gone by where he hadn’t cursed himself for how he treated you that night. He regretted it all, but hadn’t been able to bring himself to face you and apologise, even though you more than deserved it.

Eventually, the days just passed him by and it felt like an injustice for him to just jump into your life again so he decided not to, which resulted in the most miserable two years of his life.

You wanted to look away, but the shock of seeing him again had taken over your body, holding your attention hostage under his drilling blue eyes.

He’d let his hair grow a little longer, which suited him, even though he didn’t need it to improve his looks. It also seemed to have bulked up a little. Not much, just enough for you to notice as his navy, button up shirt hugged his arms in a way his clothes never had before.

“Mr. Gojo?” The professor’s voice broke his stare, bringing him back to real world and acknowledging all the faces staring at him.

“Yeah, sorry-“ he cleared his throat. “Any questions you might have, don’t hesitate to come to me,” he stuttered over his sentence, shooting you quick glance even though he tried to keep his attention on the crowd.

With a shy smile, he made his way back to his seat, his eyes once again finding you as he was seated. You shrunk in your seat, your entire body on fire from having his eyes observe you for the first time in so long, sure you’re heart might actually stop from the stress.

Throughout the entire lecture, you both kept stealing glances from one another, an unspoken sensation filling the air between you, like you both could feel how badly you’d missed and craved the other the period you’d been separated.

His eyes carried the same weight they always did when looking at you, uncomfortably restless in your seat, fidgeting with the paper of your notebook and trying to keep the tapping of your foot to a minimum. When your eyes weren’t automatically drawn to Satoru, you peeked at the clock hanging above the whiteboard, begging for time to pass so you could storm out of the classroom and finally be able to breath properly again.

You were sure the seconds lasted longer now than normal, but the lecture finally ended and you instantly began to gather your things, shoving them in your bag as quickly as possible. Daring to shoot Satoru another look, you were glad to see he’d been surrounded by students (mostly girls), hindering him from making his way to you — or so you thought.

“I have a meeting to get to,” Satoru lied, looking at you packing up your stuff before rushing up the stairs towards the auditorium exit. “But here’s my email. Just… send whatever questions you might have and I’ll answer as soon as I have the time.” It didn’t seem like anyone picked up on the fact that he was lying through his teeth, but they all wore a disappointed expression when he began to push his way through the crowd, sprinting up the stairs to catch up with you.

You stopped dead in your tracks, even though you wanted to just keep moving, when you heard that silky smooth voice speak your name. You reluctantly turned around to face him, still only managing to let out shallow breaths.

“I- Uhm.” Now that he finally had your full attention, his mind ran blank and his mouth dry, in awe at your familiar eyes staring up at him, lips pressed together in a tight line. “Hi.”

“Hi,” you tried to reply, but barely a sound could be heard. His eyes shot to your feet, as you kept shifting your weight from one foot to the other, clearly not at ease seeing him again.

“You look- I mean I didn’t know you wanted to become a teacher,” he stumbled over his words, his hand coming up to rub the nape of his neck.

“Me neither,” it slipped out of you, instantly pinching your eyes shut when you reflected on what had left your lips. “What I mean is I only decided recently.”

He groaned softly, feeling like nothing he wanted to say would be enough. “You finding university alright?”

It hurt. Holy hell, how it hurt, not to have the conversation flow as natural. Every atom in your body tried to convince you to just lean into what you were used to, resurrect the friendship just like that.

You nodded frantically at his question. “Yeah, much to see.”

Clearing his throat, he gathered up the courage to ask what had roamed his mind since he spotted you at the start of the lecture. “If you’re ever available, I’d love for us to grab a coffee or something,” he said it so quickly you were barely able to decode what he even suggested, but once it registered, you drew another sharp breath.

“Sure.”

“Really?” Narrowing his eyebrows at you, he hadn’t expected you to accept so willingly. He hadn’t really expected you to accept at all, if he was honest.

You didn’t know if you regretted accepting his invitation so quickly, but if there was a chance he’d apologise, you wanted to hear it simply because you deserved it. Or maybe that was the excuse you told yourself because you so desperately wanted to hang out with him.

“You haven’t changed your number, right?” You shook your head. “I’ll just text you.” The faintest smile grew on your lips as you simply nodded, a light blush spreading across Satoru’s face at the delightful sight.

“See you around, ‘Toru,” you said out if habit, quickly turning around and walking away so he wouldn’t be able to see that you too were blushing, regretting the use of his old nickname.

It didn’t even take two hours before your phone dinged with a text from him, where he suggested a time and place.

toru <3: how about next friday after the lecture? there’s this great coffeehouse five minutes from campus

you: sounds good :)

It seemed Friday couldn’t come quick enough, your anxiousness building up every lecture you had together. Despite feeling like the worst of the shock had passed as you simply flashed each other a friendly smile and a small wave when you saw each other, your mind would never get peace until everything was out in the open.

And now you finally sat opposite him, a strong grip on your mug to put your nerves somewhere. Satoru was scared you might shatter it, your knuckles turning white by how hard you were clutching at it.

“I’m really glad you decided to join,” he started awkwardly.

In all the years you’d known him, you’d never had the satisfaction of witnessing him awkward. It seemed like his default setting was mr. smooth talker, always able to find the right words in order to get what he wanted no matter how unlikely it seemed. But all that was out the window, staring at you with a sense of embarrassment, looking like a scared, young boy forced to face his stupid crush, waiting to get rejected after a sorry attempt at asking for a date.

“Me too.”

“You look really pretty- I mean, you look great. You’ve turned out pretty. Not that you were ugly before, you’ve never been ugly. In fact-“

His clumsy attempt at talking to you was cute, which was all it took to start chipping away at your cold exterior, the corner of your lips betraying you as it curled up in a small smirk.

“Thank you,” you said softly, his shoulders instantly relaxing.

Something about you was definitely different, but the tone in your voice made him realise it was actually you that was sitting in front of him; his best friend. There was no reason he shouldn’t be anything but comfortable around you. Especially now when he’d been offered the opportunity to maybe make amends, he couldn’t throw it away.

“I’m sorry,” he said genuinely. “I don’t want to give you any dumb excuses, because there aren’t any. I’m sorry and you didn’t deserve any of what I said to you that night.”

His voice had turned steady now, taking back the assertiveness you were so used to hearing. “I’m sorry too.”

He instantly snorted, much to your surprise. “You have absolutely nothing to be sorry about.” He seemed to hold back a chuckle.

“Well, duh, but thought it was polite thing to say.” You were surprised by your own words, mirroring his humoured and shocked expression. Maybe he didn’t deserved to have you resort to playful banter already, but it just fell out of you so naturally. “You look great too, by the way.”

“Heavy is the head that wears the crown,” he smirked smugly, while you rolled your eyes at him.

“Uneasy is the head that wears the crown,” you corrected him, trying to suppress the smile tugging at your lips.

“Okay, nerd.”

Your lips pursed together, unable to fight it anymore, a sweet smile hiding under the annoyed facade — and he noticed, his heart doing a full flip at finally being able to see it in person again. He’d only been able to dream of it in the time apart, and a hope began to spring in him that finally he might get you back in his life.

And this was just the first coffee of many. It started as a weekly thing, in the beginning consisting of airing it all out in order to establish the trust again. But it didn’t take long until you both fell into an old and familiar pattern.

It started with tagging along to lectures. Next thing, Satoru suggested you ordered dinner while studying, however not much studying was done. The evening was spent sitting on the floor of your dorm, stuffing your faces with take out and reminiscing of your days back in high school, talking about all the gossip and drama that went down.

There was a mutual understanding that you both had to make up for the lost time, both sad you’d wasted so long not being in contact when it could all have been resolved if you’d both been mature enough to just reach out.

But despite both of you resorting to old habits, quickly acting as close as you were back then, things had escalated.

Before, he’d simply thrown his arm lazily across your shoulders without a single thought. Now his muscular arm held a more possessive grip on you like he was preventing another outcome of you slipping away. And unlike before, you matched his energy, letting your arm slide along his back and grab tightly ahold of his waist to secure him close to you.

When he subconsciously began to fidget with your fingers, you eventually let your fingers glide between his to interlock your hands, where both of you just let them rest, his thumb softly stroking you.

And when he was gentleman enough to open the door for you every chance he got, he gawked at you with pure affection in his eyes and he sneakily let his hand rest on the small of your back as you passed him.

Neither of you ever mentioned it. You gladly just let it happen, both leaning into it, getting more and more touchy as time went on. And it didn’t go unnoticed by your fellow students, ugly glares in your direction as they wondered how you’d gotten so close to the incredibly hot TA in the matter of weeks, also considering how many people he had throwing themselves at his feet.

You couldn’t care less however. You were simply living in the joyful bliss of having your best friend back.

⋆⭒˚｡⋆

His jaw dropped to the floor when you stepped out of the bathroom, not even noticing his lingering gaze on you, simply walking over to your purse to get your lipgloss.

The sinfully short dress hugged your curves just right, leaving little to the imagination. His eyes darted to the knee high, leather boots that elongated your enticing legs before letting his eyes indulge up your body, tracing your exposed collarbones-

“Satoru?” Drawing his attention to your face, which genuinely left him stunned having enhanced your already beautiful features, hair tucked up messily by a claw clip. “You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”

More like an angel, he thought, trying to snap out of the haze you had him under as he slowly began to approach you.

What was happening?

There was a hunger in his eyes you’d never seen before, at least not looking at you. It was like he moved in slow motion, your heart quickly picking up the pace the closer he got. “Satoru?” You asked again, but a tremble in your voice exposed your nerves. “What are you doing?”

A confident, on brand smirk made its way onto his face, revealing his infamous dimples as he let his hand slip to your cheek, sliding it to the side of your throat and letting his thumb draw graciously soft lines along your jaw.

“I should have kissed you that night.”

His quiet confession filled the room, having your sole focus be his eyes, those beautiful, heavenly eyes that always saw right through you. The night in question had often played in your mind, fantasising about what could have happened if either of you had decided to cross the line.

“Would you have kissed me back?” The dominance in his voice had a weird influence on you, causing your eyes to flicker away from his eyes to travel across the attractive line of his curved lips.

“Without hesitation.” His grin widened, his thumb now moving to stroke your bottom lip. Much like that god forsaken night, he leaned forward, but this time he let his nose brush against yours, his breath brushing against your lips.

“We’re skipping the party,” he whispered.

“Didn’t wanna go anyways,” you huffed before finally being the one to engage the kiss, crashing into his lips, just as soft as you’d always imagined them to be.

Hungrily tying you arms around his neck in order to help deepen the passionate kiss, you felt his tongue slide along your bottom lip as if he was asking for you to open your mouth, to which you happily obliged.

His firm hands slid down your waist before stopping at your thighs, squeezing slightly into your plush flesh. Without breaking the kiss, you jumped into his arms with ease, wrapping your legs around his slim waist as he placed his hands on your ass, not an ounce of fear in you that he’d ever drop you.

Your hands found their way to his soft hair, instantly drawing out a soft moan from him, causing you to smile into the kiss.

“That’s what you like, huh?” You teased, pulling away from him order to get a look at his face.

“Shut up,” he chuckled before reconnecting your lips when you felt he began to walk in the direction of your bedroom.

Since rekindling your friendship, everything had moved at the speed of light. As it all had happened, you’d noticed the increased intimacy, both physically and mentally, but you hadn’t wanted to assume it was anything more than just a result of missing each other.

You’d experienced a new sensation of yearning for Satoru, one that had previously only passed you by in random split seconds which you’d always suppressed to the back of your mind. Never had you wanted to jeopardise your friendship for anything, especially for what you thought was just innocent lust that naturally washed over anyone that was in the close vicinity of Satoru.

But clearly you were wrong. Maybe there had always been a stronger desire to explore him in a different way that had just been buried because it seemed illegal. Not to forget the fact that it was being reciprocated, his strong hands exploring your body with an urgency you had never experienced with anyone before.

The meaningful and deep history only appeared to fuel the hunger you felt for one another, behaving as if neither of you had experienced the phenomenon of another person’s touch in a lifetime — and it was only specifically each other who could satisfy the need.

Still with a tight grip, he hesitatingly let you down, his hands sliding up your body to hoist your dress so it gathered around your lower abdomen. “This dress need to come off, baby,” he breathed into your mouth as he continued to pull it up your body.

You simply lifted your arms to let him twist the dress over your head, his eyes instantly locking to your perky tits as if they were calling his name. Before he had the chance to give into the temptation of fondling them, playing with your nipples, you tugged at the bottom of his sweater. No way you were going to stand in all your glory while his clothes served as a hindrance to your desire.

Again his alluring smirk greeted you, more than willingly pulling it over his head to reveal his chiselled torso, confirming your theory that he had gotten bulkier, because you would definitely have remembered if he looked like that before.

“Is this crazy?” You asked shakily after having removed your shoes and reaching for his belt buckle. Noticing the slight jitters hiding between your excitement, he snatched ahold of your chin to force you to look at his face.

“Not crazier than the fact that I should have done this ages ago.”

Pulling your face towards him, he had you standing on your tip toes in order to dedicate as much of yourself to the kiss as humanly possible.

Once the pants were off him, your hand found his chest, fighting the urge to dig your nails into his toned pecks, guiding him backwards to sit down on your bed. With glee you straddled him, embarrassment flushed your cheeks as a needy whimper just fell from your lips when his huge bulge ended up pressing against your clothed core, an amused eyebrow quirking up on Satoru’s face.

“Damn, calm down,” he teased, your nose scrunching up to conceal the playful smile that was taking over.

“Idiot.” Grabbing his face, you let your open mouth graze against his when one of his hands palmed your clothed pussy, pulling another moan from your lips.

Without warning, he pulled your black laced panties aside, his thumb rubbing small circles on your clit. You bit your lip to choke back yet another moan. Knowing Satoru, you knew he’d forever hold it against you — how he managed to withdraw those lewd sounds from you so easily.

“So wet for me already, sweetheart,” he panted, enjoying the view of your scrunched up face of pleasure. “Can’t wait to feel you around me.”

“‘Toru, I-“ you forced out when you felt him slip two lengthy digests inside you as he traced soft, little pecks along your collarbone that he had admired earlier. Hearing you barely able to utter his nickname mixed with the low squelching of your pussy, basically drenched already, was something he had only been able to imagine before. And god, was the real thing ten times better than his fantasy.

“Getting shy around me, pretty? That’s unlike you.” Again you wanted to roll your eyes at him, because he was even more cheeky when having you at his mercy than normal. But the consistent pressure on your sensitive nub along with the movement of his fingers were too much to even give that a try.

Fingertips clawing at his shoulders, slowly starting to rock your hips as you were being drawn closer and closer to the edge.

His smooth motion had you seeing stars behind your eyelids, the tingle of orgasm bubbling up inside you when he had you gasp in disappointment when you were deprived of his skilled touch.

Motherfucker.

“What-“ your eyes fluttered open in confusion before you were thrown off his lap, landing softly on your back, sinking into the mattress. Next thing, his boxers hit the floor, exposing his already rock hard dick. Eyeing the size, his cocky personality suddenly made a whole lot of sense.

Hovering over you, he swiftly tilted your head to the side to place a series of open mouthed kisses as he used his leg to spread your legs apart, setting himself up between them, feeling his tip slightly touch your entrance as it twitched.

“I need you,” it vibrated against your skin, one arm wrapping around his back in a desperate need to feel every inch of him, while the other traveled south to lace around his dick. It was your turn to draw sounds from him, a small, satisfied giggle ringing in his ear as a reaction to hearing his pathetic whimper.

“Sorry,” your giggle trailed off when he lifted his head to look down at you, the ghost of a smile on his face telling you he enjoyed the small banter during it all.

You gave him a few slow pumps, using your thumb to rub some of his precum across his tip, aligning him with the opening of your cunt as he punished you with a rough kiss on the lips.

That’s when you finally let go, your hand finding his back again to prepare yourself to be filled with his dick. He didn’t wait to slide into you with ease, gasping softly as you involuntarily clenched around his size, trying to get used to it.

“You okay?” He mumbled as he rested his forehead against yours. You only nodded before pulling him in for another kiss, reassuring him that you were alright and more than ready.

The line was officially crossed — no going back now. You could never go back to being just best friends, but maybe that was for the best, that maybe you’d always meant to be more. Every fibre of his being had for a long time ached to have you like this, spread out and desperate for him and only him.

At first he moved in a slow and sensual pace, wanting to be entirely sure you could take it. Eyeing your expression in awe, finally being able to be the one to make you grimace with pleasure.

“Wanted this for so long,” he murmured, being driven to lose all control hearing all your sweet whimpers, occasionally mumbling his name, which had him buck his hips faster and deeper, desperate to push you to climax.

Taking every inch of him over and over, stretching around him, he glanced down to get a look of the beautiful sight, his cock moving in and out, in and out, like you were made for him.

Your nails burrowed into his back before dragging down, too dazed in the bliss of Satoru’s cock stuffed in you to care about the red lines you knew you’d created, marking him as yours. Your toes curled as he kept feeding you horny affirmations and heartfelt compliments.

“Fuck fuck fuck, look at that.”

“God you’re so beautiful.”

“Taking me so good baby.”

“Fuck, should have done this ages ago. Look so pretty around me.”

“Hngh, ‘Toru,” you mewled. “I’m gonna c-cum,” you begged, squeezing your eyes shut and arching closer to him to chase your high.

“As you wish.” Something snapped in him, slamming into you at an unbearable speed, balls smacking your ass as he kept shoving into you. You tried to make out words to tell him you were about to reach your limit, but you were too fucked out to form anything coherent, just a string of cute sounds of pleasure leaving your pretty mouth. “Cum f’me.”

His simple command had you nearly scream as the sweet release washed over you, head pushing back into your pillow as he gave you the most intense orgasm you could remember. He fucked you through your high, feeling your body pressed against his until he too reached his climax, filling you with cum, a loud groan left him before his thrusts became lazy and sloppy.

He pulled out, collapsing on the bed beside you. You both turned to look at each other, instantly making eye contact. Whatever flashed between you caused you both to break into a calm laughter. Once it died down, your flipped to lay on your side and rested your chin on his shoulders.

“Should have known you’re quite a talker during sex, it adds up.”

“Is this complaining I hear?” He taunted, pinching his eyebrows together to challenge your statement. “Because the way you just moaned my name like a slut-“

“Okay, fine, I’ll sush,” you laughed before hiding your face in the crook of his neck in embarrassment. Carefully he nudged his shoulder to have you look at him again, needing to take in your flushed face after it all, eyes roaming every part of it. “So what happens now?” You breathed softly as your finger began to trace weak circles on his still damp chest.

Without thinking, he tilted your head up and placed an affectionate kiss on your forehead. “I know I don’t wanna waste anymore time not being with you.”

“We really screwed up there, huh?” As his secure arms wrapped around you to have you as close to him as possible, his chest vibrated with a low chuckle.

“Not my fault you were out and about, throwing your phone number at your customers.”

“Oh alright, if you wanna blame previous conquests, then there’s-“ he instantly placed his large hand over your mouth to muffle the list of girl names you could remember him being with.

“Still such a brat-“ you interrupted his insult by defending yourself the only way you could, sticking out your tongue to lick all over his palm. Before you even had the chance to understand what was going on, it backfired when he instantly rubbed his hand all over your face, smearing your spit.

“Satoru,” you squealed before you both fell into a fit of laughter again.

Well into the night, you just talked and laughed. Sharing every single moment from your friendship that might have been pent of feelings for each other, realising this was how it always should have been. Neither of you had to hold back on the affection or affirmation anymore in fear of jeopardising what you already had. If anything, the relation you already shared only seemed to further ignite what would come to be.

For the first time, you fell asleep in his arms, being his.

⋆⭒˚｡⋆

You were twenty-seven years old when life was just perfect.

“But pretty please!” Nobara complained, hands pressed together in prayer, close to falling to her knees to beg you to do her this small favour. It earned her an offended frown from both her classmates standing on each side of her. “It’s a testosterone nightmare.”

Before you were able to give her any form of response, two lean arms came lurking around your waist to spin you around, drawing bubbly giggles from your lips.

“My god, Satoru, we’re at work!” You managed to force out between your joy, eventually feeling your feet planted safely on the ground again. He lazily rested his arm across your shoulders, towering over the group with a content smile on his face.

“Sorry, just got excited.” He placed a small peck on the crown of your head, sprinkling a tint of pretty pink on your cheeks.

Over and over you’d told him to keep his devotion to you on the down-low in public, especially in front of the students but he never managed to follow the simple request, having the two of you act like love sick teenagers. And as much as you pretended not to, you melted as much at his antics now as you did way back when, rarely putting up much of a fight to actually tone down his behaviour.

Looking at the three first years in front of you, both Nobara and Megumi had a hint of disgust at the sight of how mushy Satoru got with you, always having a desire to be in contact with you one way or another. Yuji, on the other hand, always admired the sheer transparency of the relationship.

“So what’d I miss?”

“Nobara want me to give her private lessons because she’s sick of you boys.”

“Young miss Kugisaki, dare I say I’m disappointed?” Satoru said, acting overly dramatic, sporting pinched eyebrows to have them believe he was actually hurt.

“Gojo-sensei, I have reason to believe I’ll learn even more having a female teacher,” she pouted.

“Ouch,” he breathed in response.

“You’ll tough it out,” you chuckled, a small thank you whispered from the tall man pressed against your side before you opened your mouth again. “I mean, think about how I have it. At least you’re only linked to him during school hours while I live with the guy. I can never catch a break-“

A grunt escaped you as the arm draped around you tensed up, pulling you into a strong headlock. Endless laughter leaving you as you so desperately tried to pull out of his grip but to to prevail, cheek smushed against his ribs.

“Can you guys believe it?” Satoru gasped before carefully pulling up his blindfolds slightly to reveal one of his eyes to look directly down at you. “My own wife?”

“‘Toru!” He just smiled down at you at the happy sounds from your beautiful mouth, also amused by your weak attempt to break free from his hold on you, messing up your hair as you desperately tried to pull your head back.

“You’re both insufferable,” Megumi rolled his eyes, just wanting to go on with his day.

“All I’ve done for you over the years, and still you find it in you to talk to me like that,” shaking his head in faux disappointment. You were finally able to pop your head out from his grip, not at all due to the fact that he intentionally loosened his hold on you a little. A low chuckle rumbling at the sight of your pouty lip hidden behind your bristly hair.

Pushing it out of your eyes, you clicked your tongue as you turned your attention to his students again. “Don’t listen to a word he says.”

“I’ll have you know, I’m their favourite teacher,” he said proudly, shoving his hands in his pockets, leaning forward a little to me on the same level as you.

“Isn’t much competition when you’re their only teacher.”

“You’re feisty today. Get up in the wrong side of the bed this morning?”

“No, I think it might have something to do with you hogging the covers all night.”

The bickering continued, bickering only possible to come from two people who’d been best friends for decades, eventually causing the three friends to walk away with either of you noticing.

“Wipe of that grin, sir, or you’re sleeping on the couch,” you threatened, nothing but pure amusement in your tone. His fingers found your face, squeezing your soft cheeks together, causing your sweet lips to stick forward looking more than inviting. A low giggle once again harboured deep in your throat, trying your best not to let them spill.

His face came closer — oh how he still managed to have the butterflies go crazy inside after all these years never seized to amaze you, feeling the alluring look through his blindfolds.

“We both know you’d come crawling into my arms after an a hour,” he teased, close enough to your puckered lips for you to feel his warm breath.

“Nuh uh-“ was all you were able to muffle out between his fingers.

“Damn, I love you,” he spoke softly before planting a kiss on your mouth, unable to hold back the smirk that grew when his grip changed to a tender cup of your cheek.

Sometimes it baffled you how you both managed to be so incredibly, deeply and stupidly in love with each other. You’d think after all those years with so much devotion and admiration shared, you would have grown tired of each other by now.

But you guessed it helped to be best friends with the person you’d chosen to be with for the rest of your life.

can i just get a mini fic ab viktor regressing infront of all his siblings for the first time. (classification au) and just being really anxious and insecure? Tysm salad!! :))

Order up! Season 1 but he was Viktor the whole time. I bend canon to fulfill my fanfic needs :)

-----

Word Count: 603

Summery: Viktor regresses after Luther's family dinner idea goes south.

-----

Family dinner was a bad idea.

Diego slammed his fist down on the table, “Oh yeah, we can all just be a big happy family now that Dad’s gone! Pull your head outta your ass, Luther!” 

“I’m just trying to have a nice family dinner, like the old days! Why can’t you just accept that not everyone is as determined to hold onto this grudge as you!?” Luther shot back, looking around the table expectantly at them for some kind of support.

No one said anything. Viktor kept his gaze glued firmly down at his plate and pushed around the baked bean sprouts. They were still icky, just like they had been when they were kids, but Mama still kept making them. The only good thing about the arguing was that is was keeping his family distracted from his current problem; that he was little. His siblings all knew his classification by now, they’d read his book, but he’d never, ever been small with them before. He didn’t know exactly how they would react if they found out he was small, but he knew they wouldn’t be nice, so he was determined to keep it a secret. Just a few more hours, and he could ride the bus home. Hopefully he’d be big by then, the bus was scary.

Allison had joined into the shouting match now. They were getting really loud now, and it made the shaky feeling in his stomach grow. He wanted to cover his ears but that would give him away, so he just tightened his grip on his fork and bit his lip. He wished he was with Five. He got to skip family dinner.

There was a warping sound, and the table went silent. Five teleported into the room and without a word, grabbed the plate from his empty seat and began filling it with food. Or maybe he didn't?

“Can you all shut up? It’s hard to do world-saving calculations with you all screaming like idiots.” He snapped. He briefly glanced at Viktor as he was taking a scoop of mashed potatoes, then stopped and squinted more closely. Viktor shrunk back in his chair. Please don’t say anything.

“How long were you morons going to argue in front of a regressed little?”

Allison raised an eyebrow. “What? What are you—?” Her eyes landed on Viktor, and suddenly, all of the eyes at the table were on him. “Oh, honey…”

Viktor pushed away his plate, dropped his head to the table, and whined. They were gonna be upset now. He wasn’t supposed to be little here and he was hiding it so well!

“How did you..?” Luther trailed off.

Five snorted. “It’s obvious. He’s pushing around his bean sprouts, which he hated when we were kids, and he was looking at you all like a scared animal. Have any of you guys even been around a little since you were classified?” 

A hand landed on Viktor’s shoulder and he jumped. He nervously looked up at Five, but he didn’t look upset with him. 

“Come on, why don’t you come upstairs with me and I’ll tell you about my experiments.”

Viktor looked around the dinner table. Everyone was staring at him, and he shrunk away from their eyes. “Mhm.” 

He got up quickly and followed Five out of the dining room, fiddling with his shirt. “‘Thought I was doing a good job…” He mumbled.

Five gave him a reassuring pat on the shoulder. “Eh, you were. But it takes one to know one, kid.”

Viktor’s eyes widened. “You’re—?”

“Less talkie, more walkie. I’ve got a lot of work to do.”

Silly au idea

Sonic gets shrunk and losses his speed by Eggman and needs to be carried around

Sonic is not happy about being small and unable to run at superspeed

Oooooo, very silly idea! I'm imagining something like a Honey I Shrunk the Kids situation, where Sonic is literally only a few inches tall. XD Even if he does still have some of his speed, he's still going nowhere fast when he's so small. It takes him so long to get back home and by then everyone's freaking out, thinking Eggman vaporized Sonic!

[gullivertravelstowonderland]

Girl help I'm making an oc for the silly Honey I Shrunk The Kids game and making an au about it send help pls

[mister-mickey]

Um so I guess this is honey I shrunk the kids au part one lol

So, it all starts with darry 🤭 he’s a scientist, he’s building a machine that can shrink things, but it’s not doing too well.

He gives up for the day, after something blows up in his face (literally)

He locks the room because nobody is allowed in there ofc, it’s dangerous.

HOWEVER

This does not stop curly and pony from going in through the window to get the football they were tossing around.

Pony doesn’t want to, but after curly climbs in (and falls in his ass) he follows 😔

Curly touches the machine, sees that the football landed in it somehow. In an attempt to get something to unlodge the football, he and pony get shrunk

Like, an hour later, tim tells Angela to go pick curly up since it’s late and he knows darry can’t stand to be around curly for more than a few hours.

Angela (begrudgingly) goes to the curtis house, only ti see that Steve, soda, and twobit are looking for pony.

They are four very concerned teenagers

Steve thinks they’re just screwing around, but twobit thinks that they went into Darry’s project room because they always get into trouble when they’re together.

So… they follow twobits suggestion

The machine powers up again when twobit trips over nothing and smashes into it

Curly and pony think they’re being saved, they are not

Anyways I guess part two will be dally and Johnny getting shrunk because I forgot to draw them here lmao

Not a request I want your thoughts on my stupid "Honey I Shrunk The Kids" AU type shi.

I haven't gotten to draw them all tho.

Himiko shrinks them all with a spell, and they have to figure out how to unshrink.

:D I'd be honored to hear your thoughts on this. (Gotta draw them all)

They're so teeny !!!

Just imagining Himiko, the shortest one there, suddenly being the tallest one because she used a magic spell on them. Love it.
