Creative Minds Think Alike!
Episode 1---Episode 2---Episode 3—Episode Four---Episode Five--Episode Six
Featuring the amazing: @amymaleneart
Reminder! If the content creator doesn't approve of how i represented them, or their AUs/OCs then I will edit my work or DELETE it. It's not my intention to mock or belittle anyone's work. This series is supposed to showcase amazing creators!
I do not beta read! YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!!
I hum a random Disney song to myself while I finish up preening my wings. I grunt when I untangle and pluck a few of my downy feathers. Holding the offending feathers up to my face I narrow my eyes at them.
I exam each one before selecting a couple to keep, tossing the rest into the bag hanging by a hook nailed into the side of my desk.
My hands smooth over my preened wing before the whole thing shifts back behind my back. I roll my shoulders, getting comfortable. I hold the smaller feathers in hand close to my chest as I lean back in my spot on the windowsill.
It was a very relaxing day today. A few complaints here and there from Residents, a couple certificates stating new worlds starting up, and some even came over and registered their OCs. Very easy paper work, so easy in fact that I had handed the reigns over to my little servants.
The robots handling the records after some sprites review them for any falsities or spelling errors. A small Mothman wearing reading glasses was signing documents in the corner. Whenever one of my servants finishes a document, record, or more commonly a letter, they wrap the parchment up, tie it with a strand or ribbon, then hand it off to my messenger ravens.
I open the door with a small smile as one of said ravens waddle up to me. I nod my head in courtesy as it takes to the skies. A small white roll of paper tied to its leg.
I hum and get to my feet, stretching while I suppress a yawn. “I should do some work to pass the time…”
Looking down at the feathers in my hand an idea comes to mind. Snapping my fingers, two plushies encased in a green light float over. They weren’t sewn shut yet, so it made it easier to deposit equal amount of the feathers into each of them.
I wave my hand and they seal with magical thread. I grin and hold out my palms. The green fades from them and they drop into my awaiting hands. Two Squishmellow-like plushies, with one looking like a cute frog the other a baby bat.
As I head to the door with the plushies in hand, a couple pixies fly over with my cloak, my Archivist coat of arms pin, and side satchel. I thank them, taking each object one by one.
They bow, giggling as they head back to their cleaning tasks.
I eye them suspiciously but end up just sighing and heading out. It was noon right now, and I take a few steps away from my mushroom before stretching my wings out fully. I hum in content before folding them back up and heading down the cobblestone path to the Castle.
I wave to castle workers, mainly gardeners currently, and to creators who happen to be out or were tidying up their houses. It was a peaceful day…
Which made it a very boring day…
I sigh and fold my hands behind my head as I walk, biting the side of my lip slightly. “I know I need to protect this place from thieves and assassins…But I could really go for anything like that right now…”
Hmmm…
When in doubt, head to the art room!
Now here’s something you must understand about the Castle’s Legendary Art Room. It is HUGE!!!
Of course it has to be, with all the creators here who uses this room and its materials for their own enjoyment. It was like a grand extravagant ballroom but with multiple floors connected by floating stepping stones. The room having enough space for canvases of any size. You can find whatever color paint you could think of and a plethora of brushes, paints, markers and pencils.
If you choose a spot to use and want privacy, you can even raise up walls that block everything out. There you could change your surroundings, add music to help you to focus, and even the smell to suit your tastes.
Already there were a bunch of creators, some taking a little snack break and sitting at the tables in the middle of the room. On either side of the walls were a few boxes and opening areas in use. The sunlight falls in through the glass ceiling, providing a comforting warmth.
A few people pass by me, either carrying their new creation out of the room, or hurrying into the room with a huge smile on their face that gave away their excitement to start on a new project.
I head into the room, arms falling to my sides and wings folding in closer to my back, not wanting to knock anything over.
I reach an open wall on the first floor. A small easel with a blank canvas is positioned in front of a simple wooden stool. On a small table near the canvas was a simple six well pallet, three already filled with simple green, red, and blue. Next to it was a small tin can, with paint splatters all over, which was filled with paint brushes.
I grunt softly as I take a seat on the stool, my wings draped behind me and on the floor. Lucky it the floor looked newly cleaned, so I didn’t worry too much about dirt getting on my freshly preened feathers.
I sigh and eye the brushes. A flat acrylic brush with white bristles stands out. The white wooden handle covered in splattered paint of various bright colors, most of yellow. I reach into my bag and pull out white fingerless gloves, making sure they stay tight around my palm as I slide them on. Then I snap my fingers and my wings melt into my shadow. My clothes turn white and my leather bag becomes a light beige, slightly fuzzy material.
Now prepared, I reach over and lift the brush I was looking at earlier. It feels rough and light in my hand.
I dip the brush in the green paint and lift it to the canvas. It’s sloppy and I think I made it too small, but I enjoy myself as I paint a simple door. I finish up with a small circle that made up the knob and then I set the brush down.
I can’t help but smile and wiggle un my seat in excitement as I lift my fist up to the canvas. I knock on my painted door, green staining my knuckles. I pull my hand back and wait.
I hear the sound of the keys jingling, then metal shifting against metal, then the door knob turns. The door slowly opens and a bright light greets me.
I laugh as the light becomes blinding. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I get tossed into a room, landing roughly on my bottom. I yelp and groan in pain while standing up and rubbing my back side.
“Oww~…Forgot about the rough landing…” I grumble.
The room I was in was white and bright. No shadows around expect for my own under my feet. I dust my pants off, making sure I still have everything on me. I straighten up and take a deep breath.
What happens next is going to be a tad difficult but nothing I haven’t managed to do before.
I plant my feet down fully and flex my hands into fists then relax them. I repeat this action while taking a deep breath.
It all happens so quickly. A bunch of bright and popping colors start splatting on the white walls, floor and ceilings. It was strange yet amazing to look at.
Though there was the usual itch at the front of my mind that told me to move, I knew it was better to just let it happen and go with the flow of colors.
Moving one foot in front of the other, the splatters start to actually form real illustrations.
Soon I was under a bright blue sky with a couple white clouds. I smile as a small breeze blows by, rustling a few trees nearby. A multitude of flowers surround me, scattered around these grassy hills that made up this strange painting-like world.
Everything seemed to be painted into existence. While I walk, paint squishes underfoot. Splattering on and staining my white clothing. Seeing some brighter flowers in the distance and up a small hill, I break off running.
Laughing as I’m covered in paint.
When I reach the top of the hill, I spread my arms out and take in this world’s sunlight. Covered in bright pinks, reds, yellows, blues, and greens.
A long and high whistle draws my attention. I look around, holding my hand over my eyes as I scan the fields.
I smile when I see a familiar yellow Fox Fae waving excitedly down the way. I wave back and start my descent down the hill. I lose my footing and start tumbling down instead of the graceful run that I had envisioned.
I hit the bottom in a face plant. Groaning in embarrassment when I hear the fae give a windchime like giggle. I hold up a finger, face still planted in the ground.
“Not…a word…”
More laughter than something poking my head. I look up and meet a green and blue gaze. Her yellow, gray, and black fur puffing out as She keeps trying to contain her laughter. She wears her usual blue overalls with the multi colored sleeves and legs.
A big bushy black tail, which had yellow paint coating most of the tip, swings happily behind her. Her ears pull back slightly as she covers her mouth.
“Oh ha, ha. Yeah, laugh it up.” I halfheartedly scold.
After getting back to my feet. I take in the giant colorful splatter all on my front and probably on my face as well. I gesture to my messy cheeks and raise a brow.
The fae giggles again, holding out both her paws. The yellow pads on her left paw turn white and she dips her right clawed index finger. It becomes coated in paint and she begins drawing in the air.
I watch and hold out my hand underneath the magical drawing. She pulls back with a smile and snaps her fingers. A handkerchief falls into my awaiting palm.
“Thanks, Color.” I wipe my face off with the offered cloth while the Fae nods her head happily before turning around and heading back to her easel and canvases.
I pull the handkerchief away enough to get a peek at the already completed sixty-four paintings. Yes, I counted them…I WAS JUST CURIOUS!!!
Anyway…Twenty-two of these canvases have the familiar blue and yellow aliens with their little human pet. I smile, laughing evilly but quietly so Color won’t hear me. Both Veterinarians were really nice and Stardust was so cute when they found out I could understand them.
Color scolded me though for teasing them…So of course I’m gonna do it again today!
Tucking the dirtied hanky into my satchel, I walk over to stand behind Color as she works on her newest painting. It was still in the beginning phase of her creative process, but I could already make out two VERY worried aliens and a very loopy looking Stardust.
“Painting #23 looks great, Color. Though, I expect nothing less from a talented Resident such as yourself!”
Color nods her head, claws flying over the canvas with such ease. She pulls back from the finished product and holds her chin, tiling her head. I watch as she turns her gaze to me and gestures to the painting.
I blink owlishly at her before something clicks. I smile and the feathers in my hair start to puff out in excitement. That’s all she needs as she grabs my arm, fur glowing a bright yellow as she jumps into her painting, with me screaming in confused delight behind her. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The ship was pristine and busy. Species of all types in various uniforms pass by the two of us. To fit in better, I had allowed my wings to come out once more. Color walks next to me, leading the way.
A few people recognize the emblem pin on the strap of Color’s overalls. Color was not only the creator of this world, but she was also the Head Chef on this ship, making food for both Alien and Human alike. I watch as she smiles and waves at people she knows, my eyes wander to her new pair of arms that she made of paint.
I snicker and look down at my own arms, only the one pair. I was glad I could play my whole appearance on being from a distant planet. Color helped me with that when I first met her, letting me volunteer at a human shelter for a while so I could better integrate into this world.
“Miss Color!” I look up to find a white-feathered Cosmodian wearing a pink uniform walking towards us. She had a sash around her chest that was bulging with two wiggling bumps.
Color beams and waves at the ship’s head scientist. As Dr. Chica Cygnus walks up, Color starts doing her usual sign language. Luckily, with a little translation spell, I could understand her like everyone else on this ship…with some extra words that the signs couldn’t express.
-Hello Chica! How are you?-
“Just dandy! These two little sweeties are so well behaved!” She pats the sash and two cute little chubby faces pop out.
I gasp and try to keep my squeal to myself as I fish out the two plushies. Color smiles and pets the yellow and white/blue heads. The harpy toddler versions of Sun and Moon chirp, Sun’s blue eyes sparkling as he almost jumps out of the sash, while Moon’s red eyes only peak out from the fabric.
Color keeps Sun in the sash, Chica and her fussing and lightly scolding him, while I put the small plushies into the sash.
Sun immediately dives after the frog while Moon raises the bat and starts to chew on its head. I smile then look to Chica, “Giving their Caretaker a break?”
Chica nods, “Poor thing is working so hard. Thought ze might like a small breather!”
-That’s really sweet of you Chica! When I get back I’ll do a little check in with ze.- Color signs, giving one last scratch to both the harpy chicks, who purr in response.
“Miss Color?” a familiar voice calls out, drawing our attention down the hall.
There they were, Dr. Sunafetia Obqaurtz, Dr. Moontiedea Obquartz, and Captain Dawntitus Eclipseso. All looking profession in their uniforms, and looking very cute with their fluffy ears. I could just reach up and run my talons through the fluff all day—,
I clear my throat and look away while Color and Chica greet them. Chica gives a small bow before taking her leave, cooing at the two little bundles of feathers and happiness as they play with their new toys. I stop her subtly and place two more of my longer and softer feathers.
I say a quiet thank you before turning my attention back to the conversation color was having with the three boys.
Dr Sun was smiling, cradling a small form close to his chest, “It’s so good to see you again, is everything well?”
Color nods her head, ears happily twitching. -How’s little Stardust?-
“Not so good, I will admit,” Sun looks down at the little human in his arms with small pink, star-shaped scars all over their skin. They whine and nestle their nose deeper into his fur. “Poor thing got into Monty’s medicine. But after they sleep it off, everything will be fine.”
I snicker, very happy with the whole situation. Last time I was here , the little brat that Sun was holding, threw their lunch at me, bit me, and thought it would be funny to toss their toys at me in a nice game of catch…but only with my face.
Don’t get me wrong! I do hope they get better and I understand that they were forced into this. They were fun to hang out with and I…kind of deserved all their onslaughts…
Color and I can understand human speak as well as Cosmodian tongue. So, I might have…teased Stardust with it for a while…
…
IT WAS FUNNY!
Moon spares me a glance, raising a brow, “Miss Raven. Fancy seeing you out here.”
“Oh uh…Yes, I’m here because Ms. Color invited me over for…” I spare her a glance, “Tea?”
She snorts, covering her mouth, her ears shaking. She calms down and raises her arms, -I wanted to show her around the ship a bit more. Were’s the harm?-
The Captain rolls his eyes, all of his ears, folding back slightly as one of his canines peaks out from his lips. “The harm is, last time you brought this certain Cosmodian, it resulted in an all-out brawl with her and Private Lunesetia. Which ended with both of them in the infirmary.”
“Great job by the way.” Moon comments and I smirk. Sun was trying to hide his amusement by checking on Stardust.
“Not helping.” Eclipse growls.
I hold up my hands, “With all due respect, she had it coming.”
“Really?” He crosses his arms, “And why, in the great abyss, is that?”
I look to Color for help, eyes pleading.
She raises a brow, a mischievous smile splitting her lips as she takes a step back, her tail happily swishing to and fro behind her. Her yellow fur gaining a pinkish hue, reminding me if a sunrise. My wings puff up in surprise before my gaze darts back to Eclipse.
Sun was now standing to the side with Color, Moon joining them as well, leaving me alone to have a stare-off with Eclipse.
“Traitors…” I mumble, blowing some hair out of my eyes.
“I’m waiting.” Eclipse steadily taps a finger against his arm.
“Okay so uhm…funny story actually—,” I fidget with my hands, rubbing the leather of my gloves. Why was this feeling like I was getting scolded by a parent.
“YOU!” a shrill voice shrieks.
Color flinches, ears twitching irritably, in fact, all of the four Cosmodians present fold their ears back. My wings jolt up, spreading out and hitting a poor cleaning bot. Slamming the poor thing to the ground.
Before I offer my apologize, a gray blur charges towards me. I yelp and grab both the oncoming fists, making sure to keep a steady hold on them. I slide back a bit, the force almost knocking me off my feet. I grit my teeth and look up at the offender.
My green eyes meet burning yellow eyes. I grunt and take in a sharp inhale, “Heya Roxy! How’s it going? Lip feeling any better—,”
“SHUT UP!” She growls, spinning me around.
As I’m turning, I shoot a glare at Color, once again asking for help. But she was holding Stardust now, rubbing their hair while giving me a coy grin, her fur bristling.
“You’re evil!”
Moon raises a brow, “The Private or Ms. Color?”
“Both—?”
“I SAID SHUT UP!” Roxanne yanks one of her fist away from my grip. She rears it back before sending it hurtling towards my jaw.
I barely have time to dodge, releasing her other hand. She’s slams on the floor, face first. I shout as I tackle her, keeping my weight on her to pin her down. Ny wings were very helpful in that regard, adding more weight.
She growls as I grab her arms and pin them on her back. She twists and turns, trying to snap her giant teeth at me.
My chest rises and falls as I greedily gulp down air. Roxanne, though a jerk, was a worthy advisory in combat. I really need to brush up on my training.
“Yield?!” I ask.
“LIKE HELL I WILL—,”
“Enough! I will not have this on MY ship!” Eclipse’s booming voice causes both of us to still.
Moon and Color snicker while Sun, covers his mouth. But his flapping ears give away his real feelings towards all of this.
“Raven, get off the private, NOW.” Eclipse levels me with a hard stare as I climb off the gray Cosmodian.
Roxanna scrambles to her feet, giving me a stare that screamed murder. Then she dusts off her red uniform, growling slightly at the massive boot print I left on the side.
“Private, you were out of line—,”
“WHAT?! BUT SHE—,”
“Was doing NOTHING that warranted you charging at her.” Eclipse takes a step forward, his tall stature dwarfing both of us. “You’re already on thin ice already! I ordered you to stay in my office while we went to fetch human 411811*13112-8.”
“I received no such order from you, Captain.” She puffs out her chest in defiance, though I could see the slight tremor in her form as Eclipse flexes his hands in an attempt to calm himself.
I balk at her boldness, eyes darting between Eclipse and her while my mouth hanged open.
Before Roxanne can make her situation worse, Color steps in. Having handing calming blue to Moon, she was free to use her hands. Her colors changing to a calming mixture of blue and green.
-Captain…if I may be so bold?-
Eclipse looks down at her, eyes losing some of their fire now that they aren’t directed at me or the Private. He takes a deep breath, “You may.”
-I would like to be in charge of their punishment. I can assure you that this won’t happen again.-
“I’m not so sure…” Eclipse looks over her and straight at us. The wolf and I flinch, then shuffle away from each other.
-Trust me…-
Eclipse sighs, pinching the bridge of his nose, “Fine…You’ve never steered me wrong before.”
He then waves to us, “Be my guest, Ms. Color.”
Sun chuckles while Moon grins. The oldest of the twins lets out a whistle, “You guys are in for it now~.”
She smiles and turns around. She spares a glance at me, and upon seeing the evil twinkle in her eye I’m suddenly very afraid. She turns all her attention to Roxanne.
-Private. You will help the cleaning crew with caring for uniforms for the rest of the day
“WHAT! ARE YOU SERIOUS—,”
“Private!” Eclipse warns, making her shrink into herself slightly.
Color just raises a brow, a small streak of red piercing through her calm greens and blues. -I hope this will help you reflect on the error of your actions today…-
Roxanne growls lowly, clenching her paws into fists. She turns tail and storms off, her stomps booming thanks to the sound echoing off the walls. Her tails swishes angrily behind her.
Color smiles then looks at me and I flinch, a shudder going down my spine.
As an Archivist I have a sort of…Spider Sense so to speak. I’m able to sense a Creator’s Aurora, a small pulse of otherworldly power that ebbs out of their body. Every Aurora feels different, unique to its user.
Color’s—Amymalenart’s Auora felt like invisible feathers flying through the wind, soft enough to tickle. Though as her stare continues to linger on me, I could feel the wing pick up, making the feathers slightly sharp as they fly over my skin.
My own feathers bristle at the feeling.
I swallow the lump in my throat. I wish they taught me how to deal with handling these type of things when I was back at the Academy.
-You…will help me in the kitchen!-
I blink, my wings stilling. “That…That’s it?”
“Boo…” Moon voices, yelping when Sun elbows him, reminding him to behave.
Sun steps up to Color, who gives him a warm smile. The yellow Cosmodian gives a small bow, “Moonie and I will take our leave now. It was nice seeing you again.”
Moon rolls his eyes, rubbing Stardust’s back as he begins walking away. When he reaches my side, he leans in slightly, “Next time, put more strength into your grip.”
I give him a pointed look. Of course he would want me to get into MORE trouble…
Sun pats my shoulder when he also passes me, giving me a reassuring smile. The brothers turn down the hall, removing themselves from view. Eclipse steps between me and Color.
He folds his hand behind his back, “Behave…BOTH of you.”
‘Fat chance…’
I roll my eyes mentally while I assure him I won’t and Color does the same. He gives us a look that said he didn’t believe us, but sighs tiredly before leaving, following after his younger brothers.
I let out a sigh myself, “That was a lot…”
-You’re not done yet~.-
I eye her, “Well I know I have to help you in the kitchen, but like…only as a taste tester right? Or helping you cook something?”
Color lets out her usual chime-like laughter. Her magic wavers and I see her human form. Blue hair framing pink glasses. Her black and yellow sweater having a few paint spells. She wipes a tear from her eye, her fae form returning.
-Hardly! I received a shipment of…We’ll say potatoes. AND THEY WON’T PEEL THEMSELVES!-
She snatches my arm and drags me to the kitchen. I groan which she ignores, laughing. I can’t help but laugh as well, Color’s joy contagious.
I shrug, resigned to my fate of peeling alien tubers with my colorful friend.
Guess I’ll have something to do today after all…

save me.... I'm thinking about my goofy puyo x monhun au again..... (disclaimer: I have only played Rise/Sunbreak, GU (still in HR) and World (got to MR before my TV 💥)
EDIT ‼️‼️‼️ this thing got so LONG I'm just putting the entire thing under a "read more" because previously it was at the "characters" section but Jesus it looks so LONG on tablet I am so so SO sorry
nawr it's getting so bad I've been thinking about the TOWNS/VILLAGES now....
Primp (and Grimp, if we want to include Chronicle in all of this) would obviously become a village (Primp/Grimp Village oh how original you are Goose [not that I can come up with any better NAMES okay])
Not... sure about Suzuran.... Yeah it's a city, but MH doesn't have any modern or super technologically advanced civilizations (that are still around, anyway.) Something inbetween a kingdom and a village like. A Town. yeah. I don't know why the idea of a Town™️ seems so farfetched to me when Kingdoms Exist like does Sunbreak and the idea of Schrade (rip) not exist to me ????
Aahh,,, I really need to read up on the villages of the other MH games. Maybe that will help me get a feel for how I want Suzuran to be. Definitely much bigger than Primp or any regular village in GU/Rise, that's what I'll say. (Then again, the hubs don't give me a good feel of their true size. I need CONCEPT ART TO SAVE ME!!!!)
As for the Madou cast... instead of straight up being from another world, I think they'd just be from a distant village (or villages). I'm not TOO familiar with Arle's world, but that's the excuse I'm using! Same applies with Suzuran, and where Lemres, Feli, and Klug originate from. Comically far village! Though... this mainly stems from Primp Village being... prrreetty far away from other civilizations in general (stealing this from some HC that I saw where Primp is far from other towns, basically remote [unless that was already canon]).
As for the residents of the Tetra... well they uh. They live on a spaceship in the games. So, in the AU I'll just make them a traveling group of Hunters (sorta like mercenaries???? but for monsters duh) that go from village to village and help out with any particularly tough monster-related issues. Sorry, that's the best I can come up with...
Small tangent, is it weird I still want magic to be a thing in this AU? Despite the fact that none exists in MH- (Elders can do some goofy stuff, but it's usually from some special organs they possess/bioenergy crud [see: Ibushi and Narwa being able to float due to manipulation of the wind (Ibushi) and something akin to... magnetism, was it? Augh I KNOW it involves the thundersacs and electricity but I haven't played Rise in a fair bit])
Then again, it's an AU and I can technically do whatever I want..... bleh, they don't rely on it TOO much okay but perhaps the residents of Primp (and their neighbors) happen to have some... special powers that give them an edge in hunts and everyday life. I have no idea if I still wanna include Puyo themselves in this. Ehh.... I'll get to that eventually..... oughghjhjjdiskksiskj can you tell this is the most brainpower I've ever put into anything ever?
Oh god, this is becoming long. Too bad, I don't feel like stopping... I'll go onto some ideas for characters that I have... (aka The Trio™️)
Amitie: aw yeah!!! I kinda want her to be the focus in this AU? ahem. I think I want her to use a Sword and Shield, and as for her Hunter Rank I imagine her to be around Low-Early High Rank (4 stars?). I might have to make my own monster rank/difficulty chart for this AU, as there are some monsters I kinda feel are too dangerous for Low Ranks to take on? (see: Elders being in LOW RANK in GU for some ungodly reason, WHY WHY WHY ARE THEY THERE?! [not a complaint, just super hilarious, obviously i'm not taking that as "ooooohh canonically a LR hunter can fight Teostra" just a haha silly thought]) Probably basing it more on Rise/Gu's system works instead of World. Low Rank literally has its own storyline there! (Which obviously is expanded upon in High and probably Master Rank) That... and Hunter Rank isn't tied to the quest rank in World. Not gonna lie, that confused me a little...
Ugh, I went on a tangent.... anyways. Amitie. Sword and Shield User. HR 4 Hunter. I think... she'll have a Rath Heart SnS (why? PINK). Giving her a Fire element weapon might make more sense but... eh, she technically still uses magic in this AU, so it's probably fine. (I can imagine them using magic in tandem with their weapons, or using them as a... conduit? [is that it?] for magic. Think: Schezo's spells, where you can see the magic coming from the sword.) Typically goes on gathering/egg hunt quests, she's not quite good in direct confrontations with monsters! (Still a little klutzy, but when she's in a pinch, she manages to show an impressive-albeit brief- display of power. Not related to any sun goddess here, she's just stronger than she thinks she is!) Prefers to go on quests with other Hunters (Arle and Ringo, more on those two later), especially during a Hunt or Capture quest.
Arle: ALSO uses a Sword and Shield mainly because A) I can't think of anything better and B) hehe funny Arle and Amitie parallels though I can imagine her being proficient in most if not ALL the other weapons available, especially Bow. Can't think of a specific one she'd use though, sorry... I'll get back to that later. A more skilled Hunter than Amitie, she could probably tackle high-end High Rank monsters with ease (HR 7/8), even when going Solo. mmm, not sure about elders. I think it'd be neat if she managed to take down one or two (they're supposed to be fairly rare, I think), with a group of Hunters. (see: other Madou characters [Draco, Schezo, Rulue]). Probably Kushala Daora or Kirin. I consider them to be "easy" Elders (Chameleos is not here because I'd imagine him to be too elusive for her to have encountered... yet.)
Uhhh. Back on track. She currently resides in Primp Village with some other Madou characters. Maybe takes a sorta part-time job at Primp's canteen, I just think it'd be neat for her to make some KILLER curry. Always pumps up and invigorates anyone who eats it. Also just helps around with problems villagers have in general, she's pretty strong!
Ringo: Lives in the far off... town? yeah I'll just go with that of Suzuran. Albeit uncommon, her presence is always appreciated. I think it's mentioned that her family runs a small grocery store in Suzu, soo I think she'd be like... a traveling merchant? Of the food kind. Fresh fruit...? Perhaps her family even owns an orchid, with their apples being quite popular back home. HEY. WAIT. She could be the equivalent of the Argosy/Trader in the MH games! And the market in general. Anyways, although Ringo is not a hunter per say, she still can assist her buds in hunts (see: Sunbreak follower system). When out hunting, she prefers to use a Light Bowgun. (Modified, cause I imagine her with a Thunder or Paralysis iron tree LBG.) Hell, she's pretty damn good at it too. Probably has a good amount of experience fighting monsters, because a lot can happen when you travel around a lot with goods (especially of the food variety) in tow. Oh god, I just remembered those quests in Rise with this ONE dude who keeps getting his stuff wrecked in like... three different quests... by three different monsters..... that man CANNOT catch a break!!!!!!!!! Oh right. Not sure what Ringo's HR would be, cus' she's not officially a hunter. Sorta? Maybe. Would be around Ami's level, if not a tad bit higher. Since she's not quite really a hunter, she doesn't (or can't?) take quests solo. Not that I think she'd have too much of a problem with it, i think.
Um. That's all I got... well, not really. But this is becoming TOO LONG!!! If anyone sees this... lmk what you think? OH. YEAH WAIT BEFORE I FORGET... most of the characters probably are aged up in this AU (young adults?) because I don't think teens are really allowed to risk their lives Hunting that Monster if you get what I mean. No, I'm not counting the Rampage summons.... it's more of a "all hands on deck" kinda deal to be there!
As for how their designs would look.... Amitie's definitely gonna be based off her Swordfighter alt, and Ringo would probably have hers based around the Steam Ages one (but MHified, and that's obviously for her "hunting" look.) Arle? Uh. Probably a more armored version of her normal look. Can't remember any alts in particular. Sorry...
ANYWAYS THAT'S IT FOR REAL!!! Good god I spent too long rambling about this. I think I'm a little bit obsessed....
#fowl rambling#UAUAHAHAHAHAJJJM HELP KEEEEEEEEEEE#puyohunter au#<- yes I am fucking calling it that. I CAN'T THINK OF A BETTER NAME!#stop laughing....#monster hunter#who out here huntin they monster#puyo puyo#I'm so sorry to anyone who happens upon this bruh#puyo puyo au#monster hunter au

“ I think that instead of creating a normal toon caricature, we may have accidentally resurrected the actual Walt Disney”
***
The idea was simple. Create a toon caricature of Mr. Disney and other animators for the new park attraction. And it should’ve been simple in theory. And some might even say it was. Which was true, because it was done before. However...
Something was wrong. Incredibly wrong.
You see in most cases creating caricatures were much easier than creating normal toons. All caricatures needed was to copy their original’s mannerisms and a voice actor would come in with the voice help. And that was supposed to be it. Just a goofy and happy little young silent caricature. But-
He It didn’t look happy or goofy, he it looked frantic, confused perhaps even terrified
He It didn’t seem young, for his it’s eyes spoke of a life’s experience.
He It was not silent, he it spoke...
And the words he it spoke were: “I’m supposed to be dead”
***
(This took an entire day to draw.)
So this is an AU that’s been floating about in the recesses of my imagination since early February that just came charging back fully powered this week.
This isn’t something I might completely prioritise but its a fun little idea to play around and something I’ll maybe do more serious at a later stage. For now this is a fun pet project.
This AU is actually somewhat inspired by @apathetic-coffee ‘s Synthetic AU which I love to absolute pieces. Initially the plan was to have Mickey, in a crazed up moment of deep painful grief, create non-sentient toon models of his dads that look similar to him and Oswald that he could just talk to that end up getting possessed by his fathers anyway. But then I changed the premise entirely.
Now instead, Disney or some other big mega entertainment corporation created them for a park attraction when thought they were just going to be ordinary caricature toons that simply mimic the original persons. Then they noticed the off-ish behaviour like in the above with them talking before even getting voice actors, acting extremely un-toon-like and it suddenly clicked to what they have done. And then right there, the goalpost shifted to something far less innocent.
And all while this is happening, the toons have no clue that their creators are alive and that’s not even the kicker.
This will mainly focus on Walt and Ub and their toons but there will be other creators around because Disney made A LOT (and were possibly hoping to sell them off to other studios for a slimey profit). Some of which are not even from their own studio (like Tex Avery, Walter Lantz, Max Fleischer, even fucking Winsor McCay).
But like I said, this is definitely gonna be a side project with not a lot of priority.

Saiki K corpse bride au
So before we start let me tell you this is a non ship fic for Saiki. It's more like a revival short story about friendship more than romantic relationship.
It is also based off an old AU idea I had of necromancer Shun.
It also works with trans Saiki, which is canon.
~~~~~~💍~~~~~~~
Our story starts when Shun is 8 and the family dog runs out into the road. He doesn't know how when he stops to think about it. He just remembers his baby brother and dog going out to play, then popping his head out to seeing the car hit it.
His brother screams running to their mother leaving Shun to go pick up the poor thing. He slowly takes them into his arms sniffling as he wraps their tiny body up with his own coat to keep his brother from being scared for life.
Shun then sits on the lawn sniffling cradling the dog in his arms. Yet, as he mourns he finds he cut himself on something. Maybe it was the dog's claw. Maybe it was on the road. All he knows it's that his blood dropped on the dogs nose...and suddenly he could feel it's body shifting.
The dogs body shifted back to the way it was before and it wide awake. Just like that he preforms his only revival as his mother comes rushing out. Thankfully when the dog is brought back, sure with a broken leg, but he brought him back. He brought back their dog.
A dog that lived for another 5 years until turning 15 and dying peacefully in its sleep.
He's also revived bugs before. Right after this he found a smushed butterfly and got curious if maybe his dog wasn't really dead...maybe it was just his mind playing tricks on him.
So he pricks his finger and drops some of his blood on the smushed butterfly. The butterfly pops back into its lively form, flying off. He's resurrected a butterfly.
And from there he starts to convince himself that he's the jet black wing, just like in the manga. He's determined to prove that he's got this power for a reason. He has to have them for a reason.
....which comes back to bite him in the butt one day in high school.
~~~~~~~~~💍~~~~~~
So to put it simply ...shun messed up. Let's just say that.
To be honest he should have thought this through more. All he knew was that his friends asked him to come to a Halloween party, and he was determined to prove he was the jet black wing once there. They had been joking about the powers he had told them he had.
"No Shin I can get most of it. Like the magic hand thing I could see how that pops into your head." Aren sighs looking at him. Shun blushed looking down at the campfire as his few friends talked around him about him.
"Yeah, and we can see how you got the whole magic bought thing.." Chisato says leaning back holding a drink in her hand.
"Look I can do the stu-
"We're not saying you can't we just go a big question.Like how did you get necromancy out of it?" Nedō asks looking genuinely curious.
"What do you mean? I've done it before."
"Suuuuureee you have." Aren sighs.
"No I mean it! My brothers dog go hit by a car and I brought him back! And I brought bugs back before! I mean it!" Shun says determined, mainly cause this is on the one thing he knows he can do. He has done it before. It's the one thing that's made him determined to prove he's special.
"We know it's just kinda hard to believe."
"Oh and Reita talking to ghost is easier to believe!" Shun blurts out glaring at the purple haired boy.
"Yeah well I don't claim to be able to bring them back!"
By now other students are seeing the argument and have stopped to watch.
"Look we aren't-"
"NO, NO I am sick of being to butt of the joke! I will prove it to you! I will revive something for you guys! Name anything! Name a single dead thing and I will revive it!" He yells determined to prove himself. He's done with this all. He's gonna prove he's special and not a liar.
"Shun you don't have to. We just wanna know where the idea came from." Aren sighs holding his hand trying to be supportive. To him this is just his friend trying to find a way to explain why he was so ignored as a child.
"No I'll do it! Name one thing! One thing an I will bring it back!"
"Oh we could send him the the corpse forest!" Saiko suggested from the watching crowd. Everyone just looks seeming pale.
You see the corpse forest is an old forest where people have said to been buried after being murdered for years. So they are told not to go there under any circumstance. Like at all.
So yeah, Shun goes with his friends to the forest to prove he cane revive a body. From here things are gonna spiral.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~💍~~~~~~~~~~
Once in the forest the classmates keep looking for a dead thing. And for once they find nothing but a creepy forest.
After a while they go to give up when they find a branch that Nendo is certain is a hand. Yet, to everyone else it looks like an old withered branch. It looks like it has been through hell and is ready to give out. Not to mention Reita hasn't seen a single ghost here so this isn't a dead person.
Regardless of this they have Shun probe his powers. They have him prick his finger on a rock and have a drop of his blood fall onto the corpse. Fro there they wait...some classmates to tell jokes and his friends to be there for emotional support when it doesn't work again.
So they wait
And wait
And wait.
Nothing happens so the jokes dusty coming from the classmates. Ones about the powerful jet black and his skills. Ones that make him tear up a bit, quickly rubbing his eyes getting a tear wiped off his face which also lands on his hand...
And that’s when it happens.
The branch traces up grabbing the person slides to it, which happens to be Saiko. Everyone screams running off except for Shin and his buds. At first some start to try and pry the hands off of him in a blind panic. Then suddenly Shun drops to his knees and starts digging the hand up. No one clues into why until the digging brings up another hand that’s been trying to free itself.
That’s when those who stuck around realize Shun brought back a person. He brought back a dead person who was currently suffocating in the ground.
Needless to say they dig with him just as the hand lets go of Shun. That is except for Nendo. He seems to just be holding the hand that’s above ground now which he explains had been shaking in fear seconds ago.
As they dig they soon unbury a pink haired corpse who is gasping for breath while their body reforms, while shaking for a second. Once they catch their breath they all just sit around for a second wondering what the hell just happened when Nendo speaks up, still seeming to hold the hand, (that is now clinging to him since the corpse is still scared crap less of what they just experienced no matter how much he denies it) speaks up.
“So we’re all buddies with a necromancy..pretty cool...”
~~~~~~~💍~~~~~
The body Shun brought back belonged to Saiki, a young Psyche from the 1800’s, who was killed by a supposed suitor for identify different from his birth gender. A suitor who may or may not have stole Saikis money when he was killed, and may have buried him alive without telling any one of their families. And by bringing him back, Shun has effectively given him a second chance at life..a life with enhanced powers.
Turns out once when a Psychic is revived their powers just jump up and get better. Shun doesn’t know how gut all he knows for sure is when Saiki first described his power to read minds and float an object in the air, he definitely didn’t mention being able to teleport.
Of course they learn this together when Shun moves Saiki into his father’s old abandoned work room which hasn’t been used for year since his dad left. And it takes so readjusting for the both of them. Shun, to have a person in his life who was picked on for being special too and having someone who acts more like a father than his ever did in his life. Saiki, for living in a more accepting time and with new powers seeming to pop up every other day now.
Thankful Shun’s friends are there to help keep the peace and keep everyone happy...and in Nendō’s case get some new people to try new restaurants with.
Either way they’re happy he’s around, and happy to have a new friend.
(This idea may be built upon more later down the line lol)

Thank you for tagging me, @tawnyontumblr! I’m very bad at doing these writer meme things, so here goes nothing.
1) How many works do you have on AO3?
45 and counting!
2) What’s your total AO3 word count?
376,429. Holy moly that is a fuck ton of words (I only properly started posting on AO3 last May iirc).
3) How many fandoms have you written for and what are they?
Four: Critical Role, Good Omens, Hades, and Kill La Kill.
4) What are your top five fics by kudos?
This list is bookended by two PWPs, which I find hilarious given that I seem to have misplaced my smut brain cell sometime in the last couple of months.
On The Matter of Traffic Violations (Good Omens, E)
“Officer Fell,” Crowley says, and leans forward, enough to give Fell a good view of his décolletage. He tilts his head in the way he knows people find deliciously coquettish, glad that he’d had the foresight to apply some mascara before heading out. “I’m so very sorry about this,” he says, looking up at the officer through his lashes. “It’s late, you know, no cars around… Didn’t notice how fast I was going, that’s all.”
[Or: Crowley flirts his way out of a traffic violation.]
Unbinding (Critical Role, T)
This is a great honor, Essek reminds himself, trying not to recoil as fingers run through his hair, working through the tangles. A braid is made of three strands, symbolizing the inextricable bond between the soul, the den, and the Luxon. A recognition of an achievement by the drow who bears it. With each braid, the soul is bound ever closer to its den and to the Luxon.
It is a lesson Essek learned long ago, but one he is never permitted to forget.
[Or: the story of why the Shadowhand wears his hair cropped short.]
No Church In The Wild (Good Omens, E)
The stem of the wineglass in Aziraphale’s hand snaps cleanly in two, but no one seems to hear it—every eye in the room is trained on the redheaded dancer sashaying to the gleaming silver pole, centre stage for all to see.
Oh, Aziraphale thinks faintly. Good lord.
[Or: the one where Aziraphale gets assigned to the red light district.]
abide gold with me (Critical Role, T)
“Okay, Cay-leb,” Jester says, stretching out the syllables affectionately. “You sit right here so we can watch you and Essek try an orange for the first time.”
The Primal Scene (Good Omens, E - a collab with @lookitsstevie!)
Harriet notices that there’s a crack of light at the end of the hallway coming from the door to the library, and her mood brightens considerably. Perhaps the tutors are still here, putting together their lessons for the next day before they leave for the night. She leans down to pick up a piece of cloth that’s fallen on the rug. Her breath catches in her throat when she realizes what it is – a necktie with a familiar tartan pattern.
She nearly drops the tie in shock at the unmistakable sound coming from the closed door of the library. A sharp, quickly stifled moan.
[Or: Harriet Dowling accidentally bears witness to divine ecstasy.]
5) Do you respond to comments, why or why not?
I try. I really do. My friends (and maybe some of my readers) know that this is difficult for me, mainly because any sort of recognition reduces me to a gibbering pile of tears. I’m working on it though, even if it does take me a million years to respond to anything on AO3.
6) What’s the fic you’ve written with the angstiest ending?
God, which one do I choose. I have been referred to as an angst gremlin for a very good reason. I’m gonna go with The Remains of the Day, a Good Omens fairy tale AU I wrote loosely based on Bluebeard.
7) Do you write crossovers? If so what is the craziest one you’ve written?
I HAVE. I wrote philtatos, a crossover of Good Omens and The Iliad/The Song of Achilles. It’s the only crossover I’ve ever written, unless we’re counting Variations of an Arrangement, which could loosely count as a crossover of the book/radio/TV versions of Good Omens.
8) Have you ever received hate on a fic?
I have not. And hopefully never will.
9) Do you write smut? If so what kind?
I do, and it’s usually of the angst with a happy ending variety.
10) Have you ever had a fic stolen?
Hm. How do we define stealing? Just kidding. The short answer is no.
11) Have you ever had a fic translated?
Nope!
12) Have you ever co-written a fic before?
Got one in the works for Critical Role!
13) What’s your all time favourite ship?
Steve Rogers/Bucky Barnes was actually the first ship I ever really got into, and they’ll always have a special place in my heart even if I never wrote anything for that fandom. Crowley/Aziraphale from Good Omens of course, and more recently Caleb Widogast/Essek Thelyss from Critical Role.
14) What’s a WIP you want to finish but don’t think you ever will?
Variations of an Arrangement. I loved writing it, and I still want to finish it one day, but it took a lot of brainpower to write and keep track of the plot and I feel like it’s beyond me, at least right now.
15) What are your writing strengths?
I… hmm. Judging by the way people are always yelling at me in their comments, I guess it’s that I can write stories that make people feel things very deeply.
16) What are your writing weaknesses?
I repeat words so often, it’s embarrassing. I use too many “-ly” adverbs. Also, I find myself using the same turns of phrase across several fics lmao.
17) What are your thoughts on writing dialogue in other languages in a fic?
Language is a tricky thing. I don’t want to bore you with discourse. I try not to write dialogue in a different language (especially if it’s not one I speak myself) unless it’s absolutely called for, or if they’re just basic phrases and I’m 100% certain I won’t be getting it wrong. I have read fics where this was done very well though, and I’ve found that it really adds to the atmosphere in those cases.
18) What was the first fandom you wrote for?
It was for this old anime called Princess Tutu. I danced ballet when I was younger and loved it so much – I believe I was only twelve at the time?? But I think the fic may still be floating around on FF.net somewhere.
19) What’s your favourite fic you’ve written?
I wrote philtatos in a four-day fever dream. It’s not the most technically perfect fic I’ve ever written or anything like that, but I think it’s the one that reveals the most about who I am as a person. That is an incredibly cheesy thing to say, I know. I always joke that posting that fic felt like offering my still-beating heart on a silver platter to the void, but there you are.
For Critical Role, surprisingly enough it’s this ficlet I wrote called sinners, a small bite of Shadowdrei where I was parsing my ideas on Astrid and Eadwulf’s dynamic and where they stood when it came to Bren/Caleb and Essek. I didn’t realize how fully formed my thoughts were until I wrote that. Fascinating what your own writing will show you about the things that are in your mind.
Tagging with no pressure whatsoever: @naromoreau @jenanigans1207 @saretton @theseedsofdoom @musegnome!

@spxcemuses @mr-mansnoozie @xxstar-bluesxx
Guess who gathered enough mind to finally write her full backstory of Western Verse. Her being a bounty hunter is set in the Wild West time period (1865-1895), there is no current year(s) to set her story in mainly because I don't want to make a mistake messing up the timeline.
Calm before the storm
Her father, Attila a lesser Hungarian noble whom supported the 1848-1849 revolutionary war but after the failure of it he escaped emigrated to America to avoid the Habsburg revenge, soon followed by his brother Gábor. He could save a small amount of his fortune along with his two most important horses: a purebred Lipizzan stallion and an extremely rare Akhal Teke mare. He had settled near a small town, due to his financial situation and education as a noble he established a school with the support and approval of the local church. To quieten his guilt for abandoning his country in its peril, he poured all of his heart into educating children; at least he is still useful in some way.
One day, a group of artists traveling artists, acrobats traveled through the town and the aristocrat fell in love at first sight. She was like the queen of fairy from the folk tales he'd heard in his childhood, she was tall, blue eyes sparkled like light sapphire, long golden brown hair floated ethereally with every twirl. The smitten lord shamelessly courted the the graceful acrobat, determined to know at least the name.
The group had stayed in the town for a few weeks, allowing Attila's and Myra's romance to blossom; after a month she ended up staying with him, just like in true fairytales.
My obsession with angst backstory strikes again
The lord was in love, deeper than poets could express it. Since the loss of his home and country he had found his place in the universe along with the perfect companion by his side. He paid less attention to the school, the church and other public affairs; it wasn't like he abandoned them but became more withdrawn to spend time with the love of his life, especially after the birth of their daughter. She was almost the perfect miniature of her mother, same beautiful hair glinting gold in the sunlight, only her eyes were the brightest emerald green he'd ever seen.
While Myra's heart and aura was as pure as a fairy's; the local church was beyond distressed. They claimed that Attila had completely abandoned helping those in need because of her wicked seduction. When they witnessed her performing for the amusement of the crowd, the 'temptress witch' brand couldn't be lifted. They gathered a few enthusiastic townsfolk whom shared their views and a few morally questionable men whom only wanted a piece of the lord's fortune.
10 year old Karma was awakened from her deep slumber by her frantic father; smoke and yelling blinding her senses as he carried her out of the burning house into the nearby forest so the mob won't find her. He promised her he will be back but he had to return into their home for Myra; he couldn't leave her inside. Karma watched her dad disappear into the flames, the air filled with suffocating smoke and religious shouts for god to smite the sinners. She couldn't tear her eyes away from the spot where her father was gone, waiting for her parents to stumble out of the half collapsed building; but that never had happened. She sat unmoving from her spot, struck staring into the flames then into the ashes as the sun has risen.
Birth of the marksman
Attila's brother, Gábor arrived the next day after hearing the news, he was the one whom found Karma still staring at the ruins in a catatonic state. He couldn't avenge his sibling as it meant endangering his niece and she has lost more than enough.
Gábor expected her to become a soft spoken, reserved lady once she overcame her trauma; that theory was soon abandoned when once he had awoken to his niece practicing with his rifle outside with frighteningly great accuracy. The young girl naturally had an extraordinary aim and after a few long talks, he'd seen the determination burning in her to avenge the murder of her parents. Given by her mother's dance lessons, she was also flexible and capable of many different acrobatic moves; this combined with her aim proven to be a very dangerous combination.
To not awaken suspicion he told his friends Karma was an orphan whose parents were killed by bandits and he had adopted her to give her a family and education. Karma was fascinated chasing greater heights of her skills, this involved reading every possible book about anatomy, marking, engraving the useful spots of the body. Karma knows where to shoot to disarm, to cause a slow death, to paralyze, to disable for life and when it is only a warning: an injury which will heal with time. Along with her accuracy, her drawing speed only can be compared to lightning. Although she prefers/most comfortable with her dual revolvers (model undecided yet), she is still a menace with shotguns, rifles, flintlocks and even bows due to Gàbor's 'A Hungarian is not a Hungarian if they can't use a bow' mindset.
The bounty hunter quicker than death
Karma had her first official gunfight at the age of 18 on the auction. for Vihar (Storm), the filly of her father's horses.
Detailed post about Vihar
She officially entered the bounty hunter business when she was 20 and Vihar was 2, aiming for the most dangerous criminals whom committed the worst acts possible. In her early years after the kill she slit open corpses she trying to find the bullet, surverying the damage it caused and adding filler information to her anatomy knowledge. Of course she didn’t bother burying the bodies, she knew as a woman she has to be extremely vicious above talented to be hired and mutilated dead bodies did send a great message & served as cement for building her reputation. The name Karma wasn't entirely her idea, many thankful family members claimed that karma has came for their loved ones' murderers. Her talent spread like wildfire among the men of law, glad to be rid of the dangerous scum; with careful planning, use of environment and Vihar as backup she had wiped out gangs, not solely focused on individuals.
Unfortunately her reputation summoned an unofficial grand price on her head as well in certain circles; they had tracked her back to her uncle's house. The battle claimed Gábor's life and nearly her sight as her right eye was almost slashed out. The new loss opened old wounds: her not being able to protect her loved ones. She couldn't look into a mirror, the scar a reminder how despite all years of training she wasn't untouchable; after burying her uncle plan to gain control over her psyche already formed.
She took a knife and carefully carved four half circles around her eye to form a crosshair with her pupil being the middle of it. She made sure she kept the wounds open for enough time to scar as visibly as the vertical cut; she wanted a symbol to add to her legend. Excuse my pathetic excuse of an edit, I'm not good in this, nor I can draw.
Now Karma is 25, Vihar is 6, both of them in their peak physical prime; the name Vihar is also symbolic a little, Karma is the lightning to her horse. She is dancing on the thin edge of bounty hunting and being an outlaw as she often takes...side jobs to help people who deserve it and usually that person doesn't have a bounty on their head, therefore it is technically murder.
Local antisocial feral monk & cocky gunslinger feral lady / addition of the AU with the amazing @mr-mansnoozie
Near her uncle's house, Karma had discovered a cave and a grumpy mute monk living in it along with his pet bear. The monk, Sandy eventually became a second uncle to the traumatized angry orphan, he taught her how to move & creep upon someone soundlessly, disappear without a trace, cover her stances and behavior patterns of various animals. Before and after returning from a job she always visits her uncle of choice for a chat; a silent way to prepare him to the possibility of her not coming back. But she always do. She considers Sandy as part of her tiny family, although his...copying mechanisms with his own traumas were a bit strange to get used to; she adapted quite fast, after all who is she to judge with a past like that?
I'm a dead man walking, Hell's at my door.
aka collection of small headcanons
🎯 Her dual revolvers are called Salvation and Damnation because she's dramatic
🎯 Karma has a small sketchbook filled with anatomy drawings for further practice.
🎯 She actually can sing, but rarely does, only to Vihar since she never received positive feedback on it. Her voice is gritty, rugged and deep; definitely not the usual and desired sounding from a woman.
🎯 If her target was an outstandingly cruel bastard and/or one of those whom killed her parents she uses a little psychological torture. After fatally wounding them she starts whistling (for the most terrifying experience wear headphones & close your eyes while listening) as they try to crawl away or beg for mercy. The first time the whistle gets shrill & more intense is when she lazily reloads, knowing she has both the time and the upper hand. The second pace shift is when she aims; she shoots during the last, long drawn out high note.
🎯 This is her only verse where Cindy is afraid, no terrified of fire; during her....26 AU's she's always been associated with fire despite dying in or being wounded by it. In this verse she is more tied to lightning, the scent of smoke is enough to send her into a silent panic attack and despite loathing the cold she will never sit close to the fireplace. Her other deep fears include injuring her hands & sight and losing Vihar. Her horse is the only remaining family member of hers, she can't fail her too.
🎯 Most of Karma's scars, injuries are a result of her standing between Vihar and a knife/bullet/ even a bullwhip when a criminal was smart enough to catch on their deep emotional bond.
🎯 She has recurring night terrors about the night her parents died, she always wakes up in cold sweat; she's sort of used to them. Though, sometimes she still cries but thankfully Vihar is there to comfort her.
🎯 Karma has a special morning stretch routine to keep her flexibility and warm up her hands & keep them steady and fast.
🎯 Due to her dad and uncle she received high quality education
🎯 For the untrained eye, the belt of her hat are simple crosses while in reality, they are inverted crosses to symbolize her stance with Christianity
🎯 Karma's middle name is Emerald, given by her father due to her eye color.
🎯 Karma was first inspired by League of Legends Miss Fortune because that name alone is great but unfortunately she is too pirate coded for a western so I abandoned the relation. Though when Karma is not being the 'Call me a slow reader but I only made it to the Dead part, the or Alive didn't register.' ; her personality is similar to hers.
🎯 Due to her dad, Karma is actually half aristocrat. Not like she cares about it the slightest; the only indication of noble blood is her idle stance. It is an unconscious mirror of how her father used to hold himself: back straightened to almost impossible point, left arm behind it, right hand resting on the grip of in her case, revolver instead of hilt of a sword.
🎯 If given the chance to live a normal life, she would've grown into a captivating, lively young woman, much like her mother but with the aristocrat elegance of her father; finding a suitor who lives up to her parents' and her standards would've been the challenge of the century.
🎯 Her special move is called Dance of Death. This is used as last resort when she's facing more opponents up to 12, as with her dual revolvers she has 12 bullets without reloading. She mentally marks the stances of all opponents, predicts their movement, firing order and possible way of their bullets before whirling out of her hiding place. Each pose minimizes the chance of getting shot, and with each change of movement two bullets are fired, two men drop dead.
🎯 Her accuracy isn't just 'gun goes boom >:D' but a combination of natural talent, endless practice, movement prediction, sharp, quick thinking & analytical skills and different techniques molten together to utilize them all at once
🎯 Her hair is now as long as her mother's, she always keeps it in a single tight braid to keep it out of the way; without her hat and hair down she actually loses some of her dangerous edge.
🎯 The only physical memory Karma has of her parents is her dad's hussar sword she found underneath the ruins of the house, it was protected by a very thick wooden box & a lock of her mother's hair is tied to the grip. She has hidden it in the nearby forest, her thoughts often wander to it along with the wish to wield it.
#🦂 western au🔥| one shot; one kill#🔥headcanons🔥 | secrets of the fire#I can't help myself with the little hungarian details can I?#it just makes me so happy because my country doesn't really get any recognition in media & it feels good to weave the history of my country#into a badass character#I also spent 2.5 hours typing this. my fingers ;-; though totally worth it 😄#🔥alright to reblog🔥| let the wind carry the cinders

wonho’s really short pfff sorry i love you, all of you uwu
“I have to leave this place, get back, and she has to go... I can’t risk her being alive and knowing I was here and if the Clan finds out, they’ll kill her naturally..” Despite knowing you for a short time, Wonho saw a side of someone that was actually good in the world. His decision spread an uneasy feeling through him, but it had to be done. This was a price he would have to pay and he was warned of the prices he would have to pay the day he joined the clan. “There’s no going back..” He tossed his head back as he planned on how.
Your mind was frantic as you roamed about the kitchen, mindlessly preparing breakfast. “Okay, make breakfast, go wash up, wait he might wanna wash up too... Get him a towel and toothbrush and wait, he needs briefs too... Go clothes shopping... Can I really trust him to be alone? Can he walk?” you let a groan out of frustration from realizing you didn’t know what to do first as you poured pre-made pancake mixture into a bowl and added water. “Oh!” You left the mixing bowl and hurried back into the living room. “Sorry, you might be bored. Here.” You turned on the tv and handed him the remote, showing him the controls and such before you returned to the kitchen.
“Thanks..” his voice trailed off behind you slowly as he saw you leave. He surfed through it, leaving the random channel you stopped on and went to the news. A wave of relief washed over him as he watched, seeing no mentions of The Clan nor him. He let himself relax a little bit... For now, at least. His eyes trailed off, finding and seeing you as you hummed to some song as you made breakfast. “Does she really not know who I am..” He eyed you as the tv played as background noise. You roamed about the kitchen, smiling as you made breakfast for the two of you, enjoying life.
After sharing a silent meal together in the living room, you did your kitchen chores and headed upstairs, changing so you could go out. The urge to just stay home was just so tempting, but you knew that you had nothing for this man when it came to necessities besides food. “Does it hurt to stand?” You sat on the arm of the chair beside his long couch where he laid. “I’m guessing you still can’t walk, huh?”
“I wouldn’t be lying here if I could, now would I?” A burning feeling stung in his chest as soon as the words left his lips seeing the slight shame go across your face. “Sorry… Uh, where are you going?” He changed the subject, hoping his words didn’t bite too hard but it had to be done if he was going to leave sooner or later. He needed no emotional ties.
“No, it’s okay,” your smile faltered a little. “I’m going to go shopping for some things, mainly clothes and other necessities for you.” You drew a small smile and kept your eyes on your fingers as they twirled with your keys in your hands. A cold wave of regret froze as his heart dropped a little from the tinge of hurt in your voice. “So, if you could note down the sizes you wore, that would be great. I’ll try to be back as soon as possible.” You handed him your phone with a blank note. He typed away, thinking of what clothes he really wore. His memory was fuzzy when it came to things like when he last went grocery shopping or clothes shopping himself. Clothes and food were often provided by Kihyun. He was still a wanted man as much as anyone else in The Clan, but they still had their connections throughout the city. “Great, thanks. Uh, do you have any preferences for dinner? I could make something or pick something up if you would like.” This was the first time you had actually asked him what he wanted since the very first night of being here. He sat there, stumped really. Again, everything else back at base was always served to everyone else. And then it hit him. “Could you go to a cafe and pick something up?”
“Yeah, of course. Where is it?”
“I’m not sure where it is in relation to here, but it’s called ‘Momo Coffee.’” A small spark of hope lit inside of Wonho as you entered the cafe onto your phone. It had been years and probably almost a decade when he walked into the cafe himself with no worries of being arrested the moment he had been seen by authorities or worries of other people’s lives at stake if they so much as caught a glance of him.
“Yeah, it’s about twenty minutes from the mall.” It was at the sound of these words that tiny fireworks went off inside his chest, but he had to suppress his emotions. “ I can stop by after getting you some stuff. What would you like?” Now that someone had asked what he wanted, his mind was blank. No one had really asked him what he wanted in so long. His wants and desires went away as the needs of the clan took over him. “Uh, chicken breast and ramen... Any ramen works..”
“Okay, that shouldn’t be a problem.” You reached into your bag and pulled out a pen and an old receipt. “Here is my number. If anything goes wrong or you need something, just call me.” You set it down on the table beside him and left, making a mental list of all the things you needed to buy and the places you needed to go.
He sat up as much as he could, watching you leave your driveway until you were out of sight. He tossed his legs over the side of the couch and stood, minding his abdomen. He stood on his feet for the first time since the ambush and switched on the tv, turning it to the local news. He watched, switching through multiple channels until a weight slowly lifted off his chest when he found there had been no news about the clan, but it made him wonder all the more what they could be doing. But he also had no idea what could be going on since the deal was a trap. For the first time in years, Wonho was stuck. The radio played lightly through the car you drove down the semi-busy road, driving deeper into town. You made your way to the first location off of your list: the grocery store. You honestly haven’t gone because of how far away it was and how much more convenient the convenience store was. Living off of ramen and small snacks were how you ate most, if not, all the time at this point. To say the least, you were doing pretty good. But now that he was in your home, you had to provide actual food and meals.
The road was clear and the clouds floated across the blue sky, letting the sun shine its rays every now and then, peeking through. The streets and parking lot were strangely clear, but then again, it was a weekday. The parking lot was fortunately semi-full. The cool air from the air con welcomed you as you entered the store, pushing your cart as you made your way to the first section of the store. “Apples? Will he like apples?... Maybe I should’ve asked…” You stood there holding the shiny, ripe fruit, deciding to take a few regardless.
He continued to let the tv play as he began to slowly walk around your house, taking everything in. There weren’t many pictures surprisingly, but there were gradually more upstairs. Pictures from your graduation, your childhood, all sorts of things. Golden rays of the sun shone through the skylight, making your house seem bigger. He felt so alienated, so out of place as if he were a robber. The rusted walls with old paint chipping off, the subtle yet potent smells of metal, the sound of a few leaky pipes - these were the things Wonho had grown accustomed to for the past years with the Clan. An old factory-made to now be their sanctum, where under that roof, they were family, they were brothers: all seven of them. He approached the room at the end of the hall, opening the door to find it to be your bedroom. The door sighed as it was slowly pushed open. Warm light embraced him as he stepped through the doorway.
He looked around, not even knowing what he was looking for, let alone know why he even entered in the first place until he spotted a very tempting thing to closely inspect on your desk: your laptop. Your desk was neat with everything in its own designated place. At first, a voice had told him not to do it, but alas, he opened your laptop, finding it unwisely unlocked. The first thing that popped up on your screen shifted something within his heart.
“Dragon Fruit? Would he like dragon fruit?” you conversed with yourself as you made your way through the produce section, always asking yourself whether or not to get something or not. “Agh, why didn’t I ask him what he liked?” You pouted as you stared at the peculiar fruit. The grocery store seemed fairly empty, but for the time of day, you weren’t surprised. You walked aimlessly through the produce section and soon the vegetables, thinking about all the possible things you could make or even try to make. But, you couldn't help but think about him. “Who exactly are you?” You wondered as you held a pomegranate, seeing the artificial shine bounce off its skin.
He scrolled through the webpage on your laptop, not exactly expecting this considering you were a medical student. However, he couldn't ignore the slight rumble in his stomach as he scrolled through the food recipe website. You had been looking for new recipes to try out, especially since you were feeding someone other than yourself. The longer he scrolled, the more curious he grew. He began to scroll beyond the pages you had open. His clan instincts kicked in as he read your emails, messages connected to your phone, went through your contacts. Nothing he could find within your history or anything that showed you were suspicious of his presence or who he was.
As the day went on, Wonho wandered around your home before he ultimately gave in to relaxation, accepting but never ignoring the fact that you weren’t exactly suspicious of who he was, which he found quite… naive of you.
You gathered your groceries into your car, planning and thinking of all the new recipes you could try with the new items you purchased and went on to your next places: the mall for new clothes for the unnamed man and then the pharmacy to refill your supply. The sun’s rays shined through the skylight of the mall, creating a nice atmosphere. Security had been amped up all around the town ever since the mafia group had become active within the nearby towns and cities.
You shopped mainly in two places, finding clothes that would suffice surprisingly easy, but then again, it was men’s fashion - everything was quite simple. You picked up a couple of t-shirts, a few hoodies, shorts, sweatpants, socks, and even a pair of sneakers. Now all you needed to do was make it to the pharmacy, the store for his dinner, and quite honestly perhaps yours, and you were dine with your day.
He laid in the comforting silence of your living room with his arm resting over his eyes. His mind was restless as he went over this whole past week, starting with the initial plan of making the deal with Diablos, the rival gang. He groaned in frustration at his own cockiness, thinking it would be ideal enough if only he went to the meeting with no backup. “Hyunwoo was right... I should’ve brought Jooheon with me…” His memory began to flash as he remembered how everything went downhill, crumbling. Everything was a setup, there was no deal, to begin with. But then, you came into his life. You, who should have never listened to a man stranded in the alley. You, who should have called the ambulance. You, who should have been more suspicious about a complete stranger. And you, who should have been wiser to let him stay, leaving him for the day. You, who was a complete mystery to him, yet there was something about you that made him want to dig deep, unravel and unlock everything he didn’t know about you.
“Why are you like this?” He pondered to himself, genuinely curious about how you were able to trust him, a mafia member, of all people. You were so close to danger, yet so far from actually realizing how dangerous the line you were unknowingly balancing on was. Lean too far to one side could mean instant death or not. You were a wonder to Wonho. In all his years of knowing people and deceiving others, in all his years of training, this was unchartered territory that he would be treading blindly into.
“Made it!” you chimed to yourself as you parked on the side of the cafe, seeing the front had more of a garden type with a little path from the parking lot and sidewalk, to the front entrance. The sun shined beautifully onto the green grass as the cafe faced the city with the skyline in the distance. Grass surrounded the stone path meant for customers and even a few customers sat outside in the natural light, protected by umbrellas attached from the center of the table.
A cute chime sounded as the door opened and the cool air embraced you as you walked through the doors. The walls were white, littered with pictures placed on shelves and the walls, as well as white neon lights, spelling words in cursive. A few tables were full, couples, groups of friends, even students studying diligently or mothers holding their kids in their laps as they chatted were spread all around. You were mesmerized at the cafe, wondering where it had been all your life.
You approached the register with the display of all the baked goods and sweets beside it, wondering if you should get some for yourself and to bring home to him. “He didn’t tell me what he wanted… Should I call?” Just as you reached into your pocket to call for your phone, an older woman from behind the counter welcomed you.
“Welcome to Momo Coffee~ I am the owner. Please enjoy your stay~” She welcomed you warmly with a kind smile.
“Ah, thank you~ It’s my first time here, so I don’t really know what to get…” You bowed politely. You looked over their menu, looking at the wide range of things they served: from lattes and coffees to ramen and soup dishes.
“Mm, my personal favorite would be the chicken ramen. It’s quite popular and it’s… my son’s favorite…” She hesitated through her words as if something about her son had stopped her from speaking.
“Thank you, could I take one chicken ramen to go, please?” As you turned to speak to the young employee, the owner brushed him away, taking your order instead. “Would you like spice?” she tapped the pad, putting your order in. This made you pause since this was for him.
“Uhm… Could I get it on the side?”
“Of course, and what size would you like? We have a small and a large.”
“Large, please.”
“Alright, anything else dear?”
“Uhm…” You looked up to the menu, reading more on the dishes they had, wondering which would satisfy you yourself. “Might as well while I’m here, right?”
“Could I get a small kalguksu (Korean knife-cut noodle soup) to go, too?” You smiled. “And a medium coffee, please.”
She nodded very kindly, tapping away. She rang your orders up and you paid, standing to the side.
“Oh, you don’t need to stand and wait, please, sit. We’ll bring your orders to you~” She smiled, gesturing to the open cafe.
“Thank you~” You bowed, taking a booth seat. The cafe was one like you had never seen before. It was so homely, the owner was so sweet. The winders were tall and wide but tinted, making it not too hot or too bright, complementing the black and white aesthetic more. You sat, scrolling through your phone as you waited. You looked at your house phone number dialed, wondering if you should press the call button. “Would it be weird to call? He’s not a child…. But he is wounded?” You stared at your screen, wondering what you should do.
“Here’s your coffee dear~” The owner set your coffee down onto the table with little plastic cream cups and packets of sugar.
“Oh, thank you,” you said as you began to mix your creams and sugars into the hot drink.
“May I ask you something?” The owner asked hesitantly.
“Yes, of course.” She took the seat across the booth from you near the edge.
“May I ask your age?” “I’m 26, turning 27 in summer,” you said, curious as to why she asked. But it seemed something in your response pulled something within her. Her eyes almost... glistened when she heard your age. “Ah, excuse me, but you looked younger than I thought… You’re the same age as my son…” Said with a smile at first, only to disappear when her son came up. Sadness painted her expression, making you sad yourself to see her like this when she was so bright when you first met her moments ago.
“May I ask what happened?” You questioned carefully, fully knowing it was none of your business.
She nodded, formulating the words in her head before she spoke. “About 6 years ago, he disappeared… and, I haven’t seen… him since…” her voice and lips began to tremble as she rolled in her lips, trying to stop tears welling up in her eyes.
“I’m sorry,” you leaned in closer over the table, offering her napkins and tissues as the heat of regret burned you from the inside. “Please don’t cry, I’m sorry,” you apologized. She took the napkins you offered, shaking her head.
“No, don’t be… I was the one that started this conversation.” She continued to sit, looking around the cafe, then to your table. “I never thought I would lose one of my children… The police closed the case after three years of no success…” She shook her head, still staring at the table.
You listened intently, nodding along as you listened. You couldn’t imagine losing a child yourself, but you knew where she was coming from when it came to losing someone. “When I was young... “ you spoke up. “I lost my mother to illness… I’m sorry you lost him, but I know how you feel…” You reached across the table, covering her hand with yours, giving her a reassuring smile to which she returned.
“When I lost her, at the time, I felt like my life wouldn’t be able to go on. We were so close and she was my biggest inspiration… As I grew up, she continued to inspire me without being there. I decided to become a medical student to take care of others so others wouldn’t have to lose someone like I did,” you smiled, as you hoped you could see the tears welling up in her eyes disappear.
“You’re so sweet,” she said, fanning her eyes a little with her hand. “You remind me so much of him… My Hoseok.” The tears fell from her eyes as fast as she had caught them and wiped away.
“What was he like?” You cautiously asked. “You don’t have to tell me, of course. Forgive me if it feels like I’m prying in your matters,” you worded.
“Not at all,” she waved it off. The two of you sat at the booth, continuously talking as if the two of you were old friends. She was so open, different from the people you had met in your life, and it was nice. It felt good to be able to talk to someone you didn’t know and open up about your past. As much as it hurt, talking to the owner was like looking at a compass and wondering where you should go, and she pointed forward.
Talking with her became such a nice thing, you didn’t even realize the time. When you looked outside, the sun had begun to set, painting the skies and clouds with the pastel pinks and blues. Your food had come once, but as the conversation never seemed to end, Ms. Lee, as you learned, had sent the food back to be reheated for you to take home nice and hot.
She seemed happier, bubblier by the time you were saying your goodbyes, even hugging her. It felt like you were hugging your mom again. “Thank you for everything, Ms. Lee.” You shook her hand politely before she sent you off, waving you goodbye as you drove towards home, noticing right away the significantly more cars on the road as everyone made their way back home from their own busy day.
Wonho laid on the couch he had been laying on the moment you had brought him home, antsy as to where you were. He watched the news on the tv, wondering if anything Clan related had happened or if there was suddenly going to be some breaking news that would pop up. But nothing seemed to happen except for some weather updates and traffic news.
He sighed, leaning his head back against the couch arm, staring at the ceiling. As if he was floating in a pool of water, his mind floated. He could only imagine what the others were doing back at headquarters or wherever they were. But suddenly you appeared in his mind, specifically the window that appeared on your computer screen. “Cute,” he thought, feeling the corner of his lips naturally pull upwards. But he also felt the sting in his chest at the decision he would have to make: to kill you or not.
Muffled cries echoed throughout the upstairs room over the blaring beats and rhythm to the club right below. Dragon shaped red neon lights over the windows provided the only light source. “I swear, we don’t have him,” the man cried as another man dressed in all black with a black bandana over his face threw a punch right across his cheek, beginning to stain his skin burgundy with blood. Even in the eerily lit room, it was visible how tightly he clenched the towel tied in his mouth around his head. He pleaded for his life, wriggling around in the chair the best he could, stomping his tied together feet against the concrete ground as if someone could hear his pleas.
The heavily built man raised his arm about to throw more punches when he was stopped. “That’ll do for now, thank you.” A mysterious man in a suit spoke from behind, patting his shoulder. “Take five for now, hm?” He nodded respectfully in agreement, disappearing into the darkness.
“What should we do now? This is like the third one that’s been beaten half to death?” Changkyun’s voice was low as he spoke to Jooheon in the dark beside him. He could hear the soft pings of the rings on his finger as they tapped against the guns and knives hidden beneath his suit jacket. But then again. Jooheon loved his weapons - he was the sharpest shot within the top clan seven clan members. Changkyun, on the other hand, was a hacker, so weapons weren’t depended too heavily on his part.
Hyunwoo stared silently in thought as he processed his next move. Knowing how fully capable Wonho was, he was sure he was fine, but he was somewhere, and the last person to have seen any trace of him were members of the Third Eye clan.
Before he could speak, Minhyuk approached the man with light steps. His bright goldish-blonde hair seemed like fire in the red lighting. “Tell me… Sorry, what was your name again?” He gripped the tied man by his jaw, raising his head up to meet his cold stare.
“Sang,” he muffled, the best he could. His vision blurred through the tears welling up from the pain in his jaw and his swollen eye. His breathing heavied as Minhyuk mercilessly squeezed his jaw before discarding his head from his hand, wiping away the saliva mixed drool from the towel between his teeth. “Tell me, Sang. You were part of the deal exchange that night. The driver from what we’ve found to be exact. Why would your pitiful clan wish to throw a deal outside the window when you could have made the deal cleanly with one of our pillar members?” He asked as if this was an ordinary question, but Sang could feel the heaviness of the tension in the room as Minhyuk slowly circled around his chair. “Tell me, why would such a small, new clan, throw such a rare, beneficial deal out the window?” He suddenly stopped in his tracks right outside of Sang’s peripheral vision, looking directly at Changkyun, Jooheon, and Hyunwoo as they watched in silence.
Sang’s breath heavied as he struggled to breathe. “We didn’t kill him, please, just let me go,” he huffed out. “All I know was that they left me in the van and after a while, they came back in, telling me it went smoothly, so I drove back.” Bloody saliva drooled from his mouth as he spoke. “Please, I’m begging you, that’s really all I know. Please, just let me go…” he wept.
His heeled shoes echoed satisfyingly against the concrete as he took his steps, finally circling all the way around him. He bent forward, meeting his clear eye and swollen eye. His entire demeanor had changed as if the devil himself possessed Minhyuk. “You’re lying,” he smiled demonically, soon turning into a slight laugh. Sang’s heart dropped as he stared into the eyes he could have sworn were consumed by darkness.
“Honey?” He stood back up and took a step to Sang’s right. Laser light was illuminated from the darkness as far as Sang could see, but Jooheon held the gun pointed with the laser lined up right between his eyes. “You see, we don’t take liars very well in the Clan. I suggest you not move and just speak. My buddy Jooheon could pull the trigger no matter how close I am to you and not even put a single scratch on me.” He bent back down with his hands resting on his knees before he stood back up. “Kyun, if you could please?” The youngest one stepped forward with his darkened eyes just as demonic as Minhyuk’s.
“As small as you are, your hacker seems pretty intelligible,” he commented as if disgusted. He presented a computer playing back video surveillance of a section of town the Third Eye stole from the edge of the Clan’s turf. The video played back, blurry and filled with static, tampered evidence. But it was clear what was going on in the scene. The video was played at normal speed showing three men climbing into the van as if they were rushed as if they knew of the sin they had committed against the Clan.
“This doesn’t seem very smooth to me, now does it, Sang?” Minhyuk tilted his head.
Sang could only stare at the monitor, letting it be the only thing that didn’t make him look into Minhyuk’s eyes. “Please,” he said barely audible. “Please let me go, I’ll tell you everything, just please…” Tears fell from his eyes.
“Honey?” With just a simple call of his name, Jooheon cocked the gun, making Sang flinch.
“I will take it from here…” A calm, toneless voice called from the shadows. As he stood up, Minhyuk and Changkyun nodded respectfully before falling to the shadows. Jooheon stayed poised with his gun ready. Emerging from the corner came a broad-shouldered man wearing a fine suit with a thin chain cross hanging around his neck. Hyunwoo pulled the metal chair he had been sitting in this entire time with a swift motion and sat in it directly in front of Sang.
“If it still hasn’t been clear to you, this is not a negotiation.” He looked Sang in the eyes, seeing the tears drip down his face from what he could only imagine be fear writing within his chest from being tied up, beat, and having a gun pointed right at his head.
Before Hyunwoo could speak, Sang had finally spoken up. “The g- the guys told me to drive away, back as quick as they could…” He trembled, clearly struggling to speak. With a glance and outreach of his hand to the man who was initially beating him, the man quickly stood, politely bowing as he held out a simple knife. Hyunwoo took the knife in his hand and with a quick swing, he cut the towel, freeing his mouth to speak, but never returning the knife.
“They wouldn’t tell me what was wrong, but they just- they just yelled at me to drive. I just did what I was told and went back to our headquarters.” He stuttered over his words, relaying the scene of that night in his head.
“And where are these headquarters?” he asked, gesturing with the knife pointed toward him. Without missing a beat, Sang relayed the address with ease as if he was sighing. “See that wasn’t so hard, was it?” He patted him on the shoulder, even offering a kind smile.
Sang played along, even cracking a smile himself before Hyunwoo turned away. He took his chair back and with the snap of his fingers, Jooheon pulled the trigger, sending a bullet into Sang’s head. It dropped suddenly with the splash of blood onto the ground behind him. “Clean up the mess, please,” Hyunwoo ordered the bandana masked man, to which he nodded and left the room.
“Why’d you do it?” Minhyuk asked as men dressed in gloves and masks carried the fresh corpse out of the room while another team entered, cleaning it. “He told us a good amount of things we already knew and we could have gotten more out of him.”
“I’m well aware of that, Minhyuk, but to harm a Clan member means to harm the Clan. Even if they didn’t kill him, they still did something to Wonho.” As he watched the team of people bleach and scrub the concrete floor, he for once listened to the beat of the blaring music from below. “And now we have a kind gift to bring to the Third Eye, don’t we?” he smirked.
As the three men made their way back downstairs through the club, Hyunwoo had decided it was time for business to be cleaned up. “It’s time we get our brother back. Someone get Hyungwon, get him ready for the ride and someone else relay back Kihyun. He doesn’t need to tag along, but he should be ready for a long night in the slimmest chances we have to fall back.”
“You’re kidding, right? This is the Third Eye we’re talking about,” the youngest spoke.
“I doubt we would need to fall back too, but being too cautious has only caused one slip up so far, and this we’re deeper right now trying to undo this slip up with Wonho.” He was silenced and agreed with the leader. The men around the pillars of the Clan went right to work, blending into the clubbing members as their bandanas came off. The four men walked through the back entrance and exits made for them and went to the parking lot surrounded by members of the Clan who worked graciously under the pillars. “We’ll do a classic raid from all around and show the Third Eye that this was a bone they should have never picked from the beginning. We’re going to find Wonho.”

Do you have GinxSanji headcanons/au ideas🥺❤️?
OOH YES ALL OF THEM!!!
some of the gin stuff will probably reference some of my gin headcanons in this post!! mainly because i like the fictional crew i made for him because YEAH HE DESERVES A CREW
Okay so !!!
AU’s First Because Yeah
version of ESOM where Gin and Sanji are in Love (won’t be in the main fic because i dont want romance in the way, but i am thinking of making a spinoff ‘noncanon’ series for esom with all my cool but tossed ideas. Anyway in this theres a LOT of Food and Demon Related Shit and I love it
Gin is at WCI AU
Gin is Big Mom’s Son AU who ran away because FUCK BIG MOM (i love her tho)
GinSan fae au where Sanji is taken away by Fae Luffy and Gin Runs to Chase After Him, Gets Lots in Fae Woods (Grand Line), Finds His Own Found Family, and then Reunites With Sanji at the Faery King’s Palace where they then go on their Own Adventure!!
Gin and Sanji at All Blue Together Being Old and MArried Au (this is post canon!)
deity au where the strawhats are all old gods of somesort and gin’s just, praying to one of them for surrvival and Sanji Just Happen’s to be the one who answers, and then keeps answering, and keeps answering and then they fall in love
ATLA au where gin’s just an earth kingdom guy and then this fire nation dude with burning kicks on a floating restaurant comes up to him and forces him to try the tastiest spiciest shit he’s ever eaten
modern au where they are happy no angst so sadness just happiness
Time Skip Au where Sanji ends up with Gin during the timeskip!! idk how that would play out into sanji getting stronger but we will see what happens
Assassin Sanji Meets son of the Commodore Krieg on a visit to the East Blue and they Fall In Love Au!!
ah thats it for now,,, also if anyone wants to write these feel free just @ me!! i might write some of them myself but id love to see what everyone does withh them !! <3
okay headcanon time!
gin braids sanji’s hair when they have the downtime. sanji doesnt really get pampered a lot, and Gin likes quiet moments so they just get to sit down and vibe and its so soft. Like in the early morning, Gin putting mini braids into sanji’s hair
gin just brushing sanji’s hair aside to kiss.
sanji bending over gin while he’s sitting and just moving aside his headband to give him a lovely forehead kiss.
Gin talks about Sanji ALL THE TIME when sanji isn’t around. HIs crew is exasperatedly fond about it.
Sanji on the other hand doesn’t talk about Gin all the time but bring him up and Sanji Will Not Stop
sanji blows smoke hearts at Gin to impress him and Gin just sticks a lolly pop in his mouth instead. Sanji’s in love
Luffy’s so tempted to just kidnap gin to be on his crew to make sanji happy but Gin wants to chase his own dream and luffy respects dreams thats it. also Sanji asked him not to!!
Sanji like sto put on a show when he’s making gin food!! He also tries to teach Gin but Gin can only make mac n cheese
Sometimes they sit on deck and talk about their shitty upbringings and people who don’t owe their loyalty. Sanji makes hot chocolate with vodka for them both, and they huddle on deck.
They Party Hard at Parties. Like wolf pack dancing on skypeia but with two dorks in love
Sanji can only pull of suits. Gin can pull off anything but Suits. they coexist.
Gin is actually super strong!! he was starving back at the baratie and able to go toe to toe with Sanji, so I bet in the New World or at least the grand line, they’d be evenly matched for the most part, or at least Gin Has a chance yknow?? Anyway, they spar sometimes!
Gin has Sanjis wanted posters in a chest besde his bed. He’s waiting for sanji to get a good one before putting it on his wall.
Gin is the third crew to be invited to the All Blue when they find it! (first is strawhats, then zeff and the baratie, then gin!!)
They talk at least once a week on the den den and Sanji sends stupidly romantic letters with food once a week when the straw hats aren’t fucking up another kingdom.
Gin joins the straw hat grand fleet!
They dont get married, but they do get matching rings for eachother.
Gin likes to hold Sanji’s hands because its really fcking soft, and Sanji blushes like mad when he does but also just stares lovingly into Gin’s eyes
They say i love you to each other the day after a party and both of them are too hungover to be lovey dovey about it but -
they do love each other

When the Sun Melts the Ice
Written for my bff @junghelioseok, I finally wrote your Hobi fic!
Pairing: Jung Hoseok X Reader
Genre: Angst, strangers to friends, unrequited love, college au, fake girlfriend! Reader, surprise ending?
Summary: You don’t think much of it when the Sunshine boy of Seoul University asks you to pretend to be his girlfriend to get his ex back. After all Soomin hates your guts.
Words: 4431
Warnings: Unedited
You don’t think much of it when one of the hottest boys on campus asks you to be his fake girlfriend. You don’t know much about Jung Hoseok aside from common knowledge and the college rumors floating around, but you do know Soo-min- his ex,very well. The dark haired beauty was your sworn enemy having tormented you since the early days of elementary school. So it only makes sense in Hoseok’s desperate need to make Soo-min jealous that he turns to the one person she despises.
“What’s in it for me?” You ask, unimpressed by his dimple smile. Many girls on campus would kill just to be called Jung Hoseok’s girlfriend, even if temporarily.
You’re not like other girls though. The idea of being anyone’s significant other pretend or not fills you with dread. Love, attraction, sex, you don’t react normally to those things-mainly because you saw no point behind them.
Hoseok’s smile falters. “I can hook you up with one of my fraternity brothers if they interest you more? But that would have to wait-”
“Does it look like I’m interested in your fraternity brothers?” You question, voice void of all emotions.
A shiver runs up Hoseok’s spine as he’s reminded why your college nickname is Ice Queen. Suddenly he wonders if you can even pull off pretending to be his girlfriend. You aren’t exactly known for your warm loving personality…
“Well, what is it that you want?” he sighs.
He doesn’t know what to expect. Money would be the obvious answer since none of his brothers interest you. Completing your college assignments for the rest of the year is also a likely possibility (though he assumes you’ll request Namjoon the genius of Beta-Tau-Sigma to do it, instead of him). However he is completely unprepared for the request that slips out of your mouth.
“I want to learn how to make friends.”
He blinks. “What?”
To say he expects you to be joking is an understatement, but the frown marring your face says otherwise. His eyes widen. “Shit, you’re serious.”
“Why not? You’re sociable. I mean you’re fucking Jung Hoseok, Sunshine boy of BTS. Everyone loves you.” You point out, finger prodding his chest aggressively. “If anyone can teach me how to make friends, it’s you.”
“Alright fine, I’ll teach you how to make friends. Just stop poking me.” Hoseok promises, hands raised in surrender. “But in turn you have to help make Soo-min jealous.”
You eyed him suspiciously. For a second Hoseok wonders if you’re going to back out. “Deal.” you finally reply. “So what now? We spit and shake hands or is this more of a blood pact thing?”
To both your surprises Hoseok actually chortles. “How about we write up a contract? Blood pacts sound kinda scary.”
Later that day Hoseok and you draw up a contract. He promises to teach you everything from small talk, first impressions and social norms in exchange for three months of servitude and prostitution fake dating. Luckily Hoseok outlines everything that comes with the territory of dating, which in all honesty minus the few chick-flicks you’ve seen you are completely clueless of. In the end really all you have to do is hang around Hoseok, talk to him, laugh at his jokes, and occasionally display some form of physical affection. So far nothing vaguely alarming to you.
“Do I have to wear your hoodie? I can get my own.” you ask, picking at the fabric.
On your third week of dating Hoseok throws one of his hoodies over your head, claiming it too cold for you to walk around in short sleeves. Admittedly the fabric is comfier than anything you own and the warmth of Hoseok’s body still permeates it despite a solid hour passing. Part of you wants to keep it, but the rising goosebumps on Hoseok’s skin makes you rethink. Why didn’t Hoseok just ask for it back if he’s cold?
“Your dorm is a good four blocks away. You’ll become an icicle before you ever get there.” Hoseok laughs.
You raise an eyebrow. “I think you’re the one becoming an icicle. You’re practically shivering Hoseok!”
“Aish…you’re making me sound so uncool, Jagiya.” He bemoans playfully.
You roll your eyes and pinch his arm. “Seriously Hoseok. Take the hoodie. I am perfectly fine in this weather. They call me Ice Queen after all.”
Hoseok shakes his head. “Ice Queen or not, what type of man would I be if I let a friend freeze to death?”
His words strike an unfamiliar feeling in you. It’s a strange feeling one that can only be described as a pleasantly warm ache. It thrills you as much as it scares you. Later you would pinpoint this moment as this beginning out it all, when your heart first started to melt. For now though you shove the feeling back with the reminder that this was all pretend.
The real trouble begins when Hoseok introduces you to his ‘brothers’ a week later.’ The members of Beta-Tau-Sigma are undoubtedly the hottest students on campus, but what really scares you is the mere idea of making small talk. “Are you sure this is a smart idea? I mean we’ve just gone over the basics of small talk last week.” you say clinging to Hoseok’s sleeve.
The cherry haired boy laughs unable to deny your cuteness. If someone told him, he’d grow attached to Seoul University’s very own Ice Queen, Hoseok wouldn’t believe them. Hell, when he first approached you one month ago, Hoseok was low-key scared of you. You were just so unsociable, glaring at everyone who came your way, giving people the cold shoulder, and never speaking more than necessary. He whole-heartedly believed Soo-min’s claims of you being sociopath.
“I want to learn how to make friends.”
Your words echo in his head. A smile makes its way to his face at the memory. No sociopath would want such a thing. You were just a lonely girl whose awkwardness and shyness came off as apathy. “You’ll be fine, (Y/N). The guys are nice, I promise.” Hoseok assures. “Besides I’ll be here the whole time.”
Your lips press together in what Hoseok recognizes as your version of a smile. The sight warms Hoseok’s heart. It may not be a full smile, but it isn’t your normal frown either. Hoseok hopes one day it can turn into a real bright smile. Moreover he hopes to see it when it does.
“Guys! I’m back and I brought (Y/N) with me.” Hoseok calls as you guys enter the fraternity.
You shy even closer to him practically hiding behind him. You are too cute, nothing like the cold-hearted (Y/N) (L/N) everyone feared. “Are they even awake?”
“It’s mid-afternoon of course we’re awake.” Yoongi snorts coolly, appearing from around the corner. The two of you jump bringing a gummy smile to his face. “So you are Hoseok’s fake girlfriend? Definitely not the type of girl I imagined he’d go for-even if pretend.”
Hoseok frowns. “Yoongi-”
“I don’t know you look like grumpy cat and he is friends with you sooo..” You snap back, reverting to your usual defensive nature.
“(Y/N), remember what we talked about?” Hoseok pleads.
However his pleas are ignored as Yoongi’s eyes narrowed into slits. “Grumpy cat?”
“Meow.” You mock sassily.
Tension fills the room. Hoseok swear he can see lightning flash between you too. He’s about ready to have a panic attack when Yoongi snorts. His heart stops as his white haired friend doubled over laughing. “Meow? Did you really just meow?”
“Maybe.” you shrug, pink dusting your cheeks.
“I like her, Hobi. Keep her around.”
The excitement of his approval brings a fluttering to your heart. You’re so happy you miss Hoseok’s response. In hindsight you know it is such a silly thing to be proud of. After all you weren’t friends or anything with Yoongi, but it is a start. Something Hoseok seem to recognize, because he engulf into a big bear hug. He praises you, not once mentioning your poor etiquette or how you didn’t follow any of his teachings. The warm feeling from last week returns this time planting itself right into your thawed heart.
By the sixth week you’re so deeply ingrained in Hoseok’s life, he can’t remember a day you weren’t there. His mornings now consist of idle chats while walking you to class and the occasional coffee stop. Afternoon involve study trips to the library, followed by lunch either at the café or his fraternity; you are shockingly a good chef, something Hoseok never would’ve guessed. Nights tend to vary in activity, however almost always you two were together. Not day seemed to pass where you weren’t glued to his side and vice versa. Even his brothers took a liking to you, which is unusual given their distaste for Soo-min.
Either way if Hoseok hadn’t already saw you as a friend, he definitely did now. It’s only ironic that during such a growth in your guys’ relationship Soo-min finally takes notice.
“You’re pathetic, you know that Hobi?” Soo-min corners him one day outside of class. A sneer paints her cute little mouth as her nose twitches in obvious disgust. Hoseok swallows hard unable to stop his heart from beating against his chest. Even with that nasty look on her face, she’s still adorable. “I mean seriously? Hanging out with that loser (Y/N) to make me jealous? As if that would ever work, you know she’s a freak right?”
The harsh words against you causes him to frown. He never really understood Soo-min’s hatred of you. All she ever said was you were an emotionless freak and several other mean accusations excusing her dislike of you. Nothing ever substantial. “Stop it, Soo-min. You’re being mean.”
Soo-min’s jaw drops. “Excuse me?! You’re not really defending that-”
“Don’t. I love you Soo-min, but I won’t have you bad talking (Y/N).” Hoseok replies firmly. “Now if you have nothing nice to say I suggest you leave.”
An indignant cry escapes Soo-min as she stomps off like a child. Hoseok releases a breath he didn’t even know he was holding. His head spins with confusion and frustration. Confusion at his sudden shift from how willing he was to drop Soo-min for you. Frustrated at Soo-min’s hatred of you, why couldn’t she see how truly vulnerable you were? He only thank god you weren’t around to hear Soo-min. He could imagine you’d pull back into that shell of yours from her words.
“Well, she still doesn’t like me. Guess that’s a plus for you.”
Hoseok leaped at the sound of your monotone voice. The hairs on the back of his rising as he turned to find you lounging a few feet behind him. Your lips twitch in amusement by his fright. “Jagiya, don’t do that. You know I don’t like it when you sneak up on me.” he breathes out.
You raise an eyebrow shooting him a look. “Jagiya? Aren’t you milking it a bit? Soo-min is nowhere to be seen, and I doubt her little lackeys are watching.”
Another frown finds its way to his face. He rubs the back of his head, guilt eating him inside. “How much of that did you hear?”
“Just the usual sound of her calling me a loser and what not.” You shrug. “She was rather tame if you ask me-sorry, I shouldn’t be talking bad about your girlfriend.”
Hoseok shakes his head. “No, I’m the one who should apologize. Soo-min’s not normally like that. She’s kind, loving, a good person-”
You hold a hand up to halt him. “You don’t need to explain Soo-min to me. There’s a lot of good, kind, loving people who hate me. I’m used to it. I mean I’m the Ice Queen after all, what does it matter if someone is mean to me-”
“IT SHOULD MATTER!!” Hoseok snaps, startling you. This is the first time you ever seen Hoseok mad. It’s alarming. You didn’t even know he could get mad. The boy was the epitome of sunshine and rainbows for God’s sake.
He let out a weary sigh seeming to calm down. “It should matter to you. No one should treat you like this…I can’t stand it. I especially can’t stand why they do it. They don’t even know you. They don’t even try to know you.”
A smile graces your face for the first time ever, but it’s not the smile Hoseok longs to see. It’s a bitter smile full of what he knows to be self-depreciation and hatred. “Could you honestly say you’d be any different if not for Soo-min breaking up with you?”
No, he can’t and it kills him.
On the two month anniversary of your fake relationship Hoseok takes you out to a nice restaurant. It’s a little overkill you think given the hostility Soo-min’s begun to display since her and Hoseok’s confrontation two weeks ago, but you say nothing. Instead you wear the nicest dress you can find and do your best to look enviable for Hoseok’s sake. Your heart aches at the thought that soon the contract between you two will expire, meaning the end of your relationship and friendship. Just the thought alone cause pain to shoot through your being. The seed planted by Hoseok’s kindness has finally started to take root within you, and while you are yet to recognize the emotion it brings, you know it’s nothing good.
“Are you sure this isn’t a little too much? I get that we’re putting on a show for Soo-min, but wouldn’t a café do just as well?” You suggest as Hoseok leads you into the brightly lit restaurant. It’s like something seen on the travel channel or a movie. Its ceilings hung with chandeliers and white silk cloths draped from one end to the other. Servers are dressed in crisp black uniforms setting the tables with multiple silverware. It’s all too much.
You are (Y/N) (L/N), Ice Queen/misfit of Seoul University. You aren’t meant for such treatment. “Aish…like I’d let my girlfriend fake or not go to a café for our anniversary. Nope, sorry Jagiya tonight we dine like royalty.” Hoseok winks.
Heat rushes to your face. Warming your inside as well. Another root spreads off the seed within you. “Hoseok…” you whine. “Really, I’m not meant for this treatment. I’m meant to have frozen pizza and the occasional takeout. Not rich people food.”
Hoseok snorts shaking his head. “Rich people food? You’re sounding awfully judging there. I’m not that rich.”
You’re about to argue otherwise, seeing how his net-worth is twelve million compared to your negative two dollars, but you stop yourself. “Spending this much money isn’t worth it for a fake relationship.”
“No, it’s not.” Hoseok agrees. A serious expression appearing on his face as he stares straight into your eyes. “But it is worth it for a friend.”
The smile reappears on his face as he drags you straight to a table hidden in back. “Come on (Y/N), think of it as a celebration for your success. In the last two month you’ve managed to befriend all my brothers and a few of their girlfriends. If that’s not cause to celebrate I don’t know what is.”
You frown. “Then why don’t we celebrate with them?”
“Really (Y/N)? Can’t you just let me treat you to something nice?” Hoseok pleads.
Your eyes narrow in on him untrusting. It reminds Hoseok of two months ago when this thing started. All the glares and narrowed glances you gave him shook Hoseok to the core. He spent the whole time hopping you wouldn’t murder him as the contract was drafted. Never once did he consider you might be as cautious of him as he was you.
“Fine, but I’m getting the cheapest thing.” you decide, lifting the menu up.
Hoseok watches entertained as you stare at the menu in hard concentration. Your brow wrinkles, nose twitching irritated as you look over the words. You look so much like an angry bunny, he can’t not to smile. “Problem?”
You glare at him over the menu. “You know damn well it’s in Japanese, Jung Hoseok.”
His smile splits into a grin, he wags a finger at you. “Now now (Y/N) remember what we talked about not directing anger at others.”
“Shove it, Sunshine boy.” you reply, pouting in your chair.
Hoseok laughs. He can’t remember why he ever thought you were anything but cute. Meanwhile you are trying to do everything in your power to stop the unpleasant roots of affection clambering beneath your skin.
A week later you find yourself hunched over the toilet sick to your stomach. As fall rolls into winter, flu season hits the college hard. Nearly half of the population is absent from class due to puking their guts out and you’re no exception. So you text Hoseok letting him know not to bother picking you today since you are definitely not leaving anytime soon.
He replies with a simple text telling you to get better, and you spend the rest of the day curled on the couch watching Friends. At some point you must’ve dozed off, because you awaken to a cool towel being placed on your forehead. Your eyes shoot open to see a grim Hoseok hovering anxiously over you. “Hey Jagiya, didn’t mean to startle you.” he murmurs softly.
“Again with the Jagiya? You know we’re the only ones here right?’ you croak, bringing a smile to his face.
“Sorry. I guess it’s just kinda becoming habit you know?”
Yes, you do know and you don’t like it. Jagiya is a nickname lovers give each other, while it was appropriate to use when feigning a relationship it shouldn’t be used so thoughtlessly outside that time frame.
“Whatever.” You mutter, ignoring the sharp pain in your ribs. “What are you doing here anyway? Don’t you have stuff to do?”
Hoseok pouts. “I’m taking care of you aren’t I? Doesn’t that count as doing something?”
You blush as yet again warmth floods your body. It’s been years since someone’s taken care of you. When you were little all you had to depend on was your Aunt and Uncle, they were never too fond of you. Hoseok being here for you…it’s almost too sweet to handle.
“I should have never given you a key.” You mutter, burying yourself under the blankets.
Thankfully Hoseok laughs not turned off by your rudeness. “Well it’s too late now. I’m not giving it up without a fight.”
You roll your eyes. “Don’t you have a frat house or something to go invade? I’m sure they’ll be happy to have your sunny ass.”
“Maybe.” Hoseok hums. “But I’m not returning until I’m sure you’re alright. The flu is a nasty thing. It kills you know?”
It kills…your mind flashes back to the contents of your vomit earlier. A hollow feeling fills you as your chest tightens. The flu killed, but maybe not as bad the affection blossoming within you for Hoseok.
Barely a week passes by when you decide to take the bull by its horn. The contract is on its last legs. While your end of the bargain is more than fulfilled, Hoseok’s still is nowhere near complete. Since that day he stood up for you, Soo-min had been sniffing around more, but it wasn’t enough. Time was running out in more than one way and you’d be damned if Hoseok didn’t get the happiness he deserves by the end of it.
Which is why you decide to make the ultimate move one day after class…a wide mouth sloppy kiss pressed against Hoseok’s unsuspecting lips. He jolts not shocked by your brazen behavior. Physical affection had been apart of the contract, but until now it consisted solely of hand holding, hugs, and the occasional peck of forehead. For you to throw yourself at him like this…well you’re surprised Hoseok has enough sense to kiss you back.
Unsurprisingly Hoseok is well versed in the art of kissing. His tongue gently entangling itself with yours as he guides you through it. He’s so good at it you almost believe Hoseok’s kissing you because he wants to and not to make Soo-min jealous. The thought causes your heart to leap, but reality brings a choking feeling to you. Reluctantly you pull away before the sensation gets too overwhelming.
Hoseok silently stares at you, tongue running across his lips. “That was…”
“Unexpected, I know, sorry.” You says. Out of the corner of your eye, you see Soo-min glaring daggers at you. Undoubtedly this little stunt will book you meeting with her, but you could care less. “But if it’s any consolation, I think it did the trick. Don’t look now but Soo-min seems rather jealous.”
“Soo-min?” Hoseok asks, eyeing immediately going towards the girl. He lets out a breathy laugh, running a hand through his hair. “Right, Soo-min.”
You pat his shoulder. “Give it a day or two, but I promise she’ll come running back.”
Hoseok nods wordlessly his eyes never leaving Soo-min. Your lips twitch upwards into a small smile, the suffocating pain growing as your love for him blooms. You lick your lips tasting the foreboding flavor of iron. “I guess this is it for us, huh Sunshine boy?”
You press one last kiss to his cheek. “Thanks for everything. I really enjoyed being your friend while it lasted.”
Hoseok snaps out of his trance. “While it lasted? (Y/N) wait-”
However it’s too late. You’ve already disappeared into the throng of students nowhere to be seen. Hoseok’s heart squeeze at memory of your sad smile. For the last few weeks all he wanted was to see you smile, but never like that. Silently Hoseok wonders if he caused that hurt smile of yours. If he did, Hoseok doesn’t think he can forgive himself.
Two days later you find yourself surrounded by Soo-min and her minions. It is nothing new, seeing how your antagonistic relationship goes back a good decade and a half. However this time there is more than just mutual dislike between you two. “You know Hoseok’s only dating you to get me back right? He would never look at you otherwise.” Soo-min taunts, a wicked grin splitting across her face.
She wants to make you suffer-to hurt you in the worst way possible. It’s something Soo-min’s always dreamt of, only to get disappointed by your apathy towards her. This time is no different.
“You’re probably right.” You agree. “But then again, you would think he’d realize it’s not working and give up, if that’s the case. I mean you’re obviously not going back to him, yet Hoseok’s still dating me. Hmmm …I wonder…”
Her face turns red causing you more joy than necessary. Normally you didn’t antagonize Soo-min like this, but you have a part to play. Hoseok wants her back, and you would do anything to help, even if it meant putting yourself in the line of fire.
“You disgusting freak! Stay away from my boyfriend!” Soo-min shrieks.
A sharp slap rings through the air as pain spreads across your cheek. It takes you a second to realize what had happened. Your cheek stings something awfully fierce, and you know without a doubt it’ll be swollen later. Yet none of this matters, because Soo-min said the magic words. The words that would bring Hoseok happiness.
“What the fuck are you doing?!” a familiar voice yells.
Your head whips over to see Yoongi marching over. Anger radiates off him as Yoongi pushes his way in front of you, his back creating a barrier between you and your tormentors. Confusion fills the air as everyone, but Yoongi are surprised by his actions. Soo-min steps forward looking as innocent as can be. “Yoongi-oppa, what are you doing here?”
“I was walking to class, when I saw you attack (Y/N).” Yoongi grits.
Soo-min actually has the gall to play dumb. “Attack? I would never attack anyone, oppa. You must be seeing things. We’re just having a friendly chat with (Y/N) weren’t we girls?”
“Don’t piss on my leg and tell me it’s rain, Soo-min. I know what I saw and when Hobi finds out, you can kiss that stupid little hold you have over him goodbye-”
“Stop it, Yoongi. Please.”
Yoongi stills at your words. His eyes wide with disbelief. “No (Y/N), you can’t let her get away with this. Hoseok wouldn’t want-”
Your eyes screw shut not wanting to hear his words. Your chest constricts with a pain you’ve grown all too accustomed to. “Please Oppa, just take me home.”
Yoongi give you a conflicted look, but cedes nonetheless. He wraps an arm around your shoulder glaring at the girls as he leads you back home. You don’t even bother opening your eyes. You know Soo-min’s grinning victoriously.
Night falls and your cheek is now the size of a golf ball. Yoongi sits besides you pressing a cold pack to it. You’re eternally grateful for the blonde, even if you wished he’d leave. His presence only reminds you of how soon everything will end. “I don’t see why you refuse to tell Hoseok this? Soo-min or not, he won’t put up with someone treating his friends like this.” Yoongi says for the millionth time.
You shrug, curling into yourself. “What does it matter? It all be over soon anyway. Soo-min will undoubtedly return to Hoseok like he wanted, and our friendship will be over.. It’ll be like none of this ever happened.”
“That’s bullshit.” Yoongi gritted. “And you know it. Hobi isn’t one to abandon his friends like that.”
“Maybe.” You murmur, eyes flickering to the jars on your shelf. Each one of them is filled to the brim with white orchid petals. The sight makes you laugh genuinely laugh. Of all the flowers out there it had to be something so rare and exotic. A flower to represent the fragility and abnormality of the love blossomed from the Ice Queen for a ray of sunshine.
The taste of iron coats your tongue as your chest gave another excruciating squeeze. Swallowing back the blood, bile and petals threatening to escape you turn towards the blonde haired boy. Shooting him a soft smile you ask. “Hey Yoongi..do you know what Hanahaki disease is?”
——————————————————————————————————–
Hanahaki Disease (花吐き病 ) is a disease where the victim coughs up flower petals when they suffer from one-sided love. It can be cured through surgical removal, but when the infection is removed, the victim’s romantic feelings for or memory of their love also disappear.

It was in the ‘adventure time’ au.
ZM
she looks to shatter who said that. "Ah, alright. Wonder if we'll meet fin. Its so weird meeting fictional characters haha! "
Core
“Well we just need to find this hunter.” Shatter said.
ZM
"Maybe its fin." She jokes. "Shatter would you do the honers of taking us there?"
Core
Shatter made a portal. “Says here ‘hunter princess’”
ZM
"Bubble gum! Kidding, is hunter princess what they call her?" She goes through.
Core
“It literally just says hunter princess, forest, adventure time au.”
ZM
"So helpful." She slides down a little hill in the forest. "Hunter princes! Wherever you are come here"

Core
“Turn people into stone.”
ZM
"sure.... whatever yeah we'll get that for you." chara waves her hand. "were can we find it?"
Core
“On a cockatrice, it lives in the desert.”
ZM
"k" she turns and they go to the desert "how big do you think this chicken is?" she asks shatter
Core
“18 to 50 feet, but my form is 25.” Shatter said
ZM
"that is a big chicken. we should bring it back for horror."
Core
“She would eat it, but watch out for it’s eyes.”
ZM

Core
“Why?”
ZM
"well there's nothing here. it's not like it burrows, does it?"
Core
“Cockatrice are cold blooded, so it is perfect.”
ZM
"hmm, they must be pretty hardy." chara points "hey is that it?" in the distance there's a figure.
Core
Shatter looked and saw familiar plumage. “Yep.” She turned into a mole and dug underground
ZM
Chara laid low and watched
Core
She appeared in front of the bird and kicked sand
ZM
The bird shook it's head and glared at the mole relizing there were no eyes it got mad and looked for another victim
Core
Shatter assumed she got both eyes and turned back to normal.
The creature turned to their good eye, luckily shatter turned into a cockatrice just in time, the twos ability balancing out
ZM
(Stare down of the cockatrice.) Chara had been trying to sneak to the back of it and pluck a fether. She was close
Core
Shatter kept the cockatrice’s attention, though that wasn’t very hard since it turned out the wild one was male. (Sorry not sorry but he is trying to flirt)
ZM
(Lol) Chara gets ready to jump and right after she pluck it she did, right over the two of them and started to run to tonic.
Core
Shatter then attacked the male, showing she was NOT interested
ZM
"Woooo!" Chara runs and grabs tonics paw while waving the feather in the other hand.
Core
Shatter nodded and started to run off, noticing the male following.
ZM
Chara didn't look back so she didn't notice until she wondered what was making shatter as far back as she was.. "hurry up shatter?" She calls.
Core
Shatter used her wings to jump up and kick the male,
ZM
Chara heard the male cry out as shatter gouged his chest
ZM
Chara's curiosity wins and she looks back making sure to look low.
Core
Shatter killed the male, turning back. “He wouldn’t take a hint!”
ZM
"Oh I think he took it shatter haha!" She goes back and gets a couple more feathers for fun. "Alright let's get back."
Core
Shatter nodded, following
ZM
When they got there chara waves the feathers at the princess. "There you go. Why do you even have the gem if you're willing to give it up that fast?"
Core
“Getting the feathers is not that easy.” The woman said, tossing the blue gem to Chara
ZM
"OK better question, where did you get the gem?"
Core
“This lady with floating hair and glowing eyes gave it to me.”
ZM
"Didn't she tell you not ta give it away? Cause dang."
Core
“She told me find someone worthy.”
ZM
"Cool. Guess we win~" she sets the gem in, bright red color slowly dies down as it settles in. Chara spins the outside ring.
Core
It landed on pegasus
ZM
She showed shatter with a smile it glowed yellow.
" pegasus huh." Chara says "wonder what it'll be like"
Core
“Says Dracopedia AU, so more feathers.”
ZM
"well a'ight. not sure exactly what that means but i like surprises. let's go" chara says.
Core
“Also be careful, this au has my most dangerous forms
ZM
"eh, we're fine. we've got you."
Core
“True.” Shatter shrugged, making a portal to the mountains.
ZM
the three of them enter, it's late at night with a new moon making it pretty dark. the three of them made their own light for each of them. "okay, so, where is this thing?"
Core
“Well it lives in the mountains, so somewhere here”
ZM
"do these kinds of pegasuses... like, make nests?" chara asks
Core
“Kinda?” Shatter started, turning into an eight legged lizard large enough for Chara and Tonic to ride up the steep slopes. “They make large areas of flat stone to roost.”
ZM
"huh." chara hops on with tonic. "you have good night vision in this form shatter?"
Core
‘Actually it’s pretty decent, this is a Saharan Basilisk by the way’ she said, climbing up the slopes
ZM
they climb until they hit the top where it flatten out. there is a cliff in front of them they'd have to climb to get higher.
Core
Shatter looked around, sniffing the ground
ZM
the watch starts to glow indigo again. tonic holds it in a certain direction and it gets brighter.
Core
“I got a scent” Shatter said, turning the same direction. And bolting
ZM
tonic looses there balance almost falling off shatter's back. chara leans forward holding tight. "weeee! hahah " chara squeels.
Core
Shatter used her tail to help Tonic stay on as she climbed
ZM
shatter climbs up some of the cliff but than the sent is to the right. she can't see anything that way but the sent clearly leads that way.
Core
She turned to follow the sent, the basilisk’s eyes were small so this form mainly relied on scent anyway.
ZM
the cliff ended there, the mountain side dropping drastically. the sent came from inside the wall they climbed on, there was a spell of some sort on it it seemed as shatter touched it, the wall quivered.
Core
Shatter used her tail to snake the wall, again and again.
*smack
ZM
the harder she hit it the more it pushed back, like counter.
Core
Shatter growled at this. ‘You two get off for a second
ZM
there was a small ledge that they were able to stand on, though it was very thin they both did as they were told, tonic's light helping a lot.
Core
Shatter went over and started digging, something this form was great at
ZM
she could see that the spell was a bubble and went all around the protected area, even in the rock.
Core
Shatter bit at it, trying to tear
ZM
that was the most effective as the bubble's crease she made with the bite turned a light green
Core
She shook her head as she continued to bite
ZM
she eventually got through that, a bit more rock in her way before she could go into the grotto. shatter could hear sounds coming from in there. tonic inches their way over to where shatter was watching.
Core
Shatter dug through the rock with ease, once she made a big enough hole she went and got Tonic and Chara
ZM
the inside of this little hide away was quite nice. very cozy. there was a young looking Pegasus on the ground under some kind of animal pelt.
ZM
tonic and chara go in, chara looking around and finding gems. "oooo" she bends down to them and sees a little dragon there. much younger than the Pegasus. it was garding the gems
Core
“Dragonettes?’ Shatter questioned, confused. ‘They are domesticated so that must mean-‘ Shatter said before screeching as an arrow went through one of this form’s small eyes.
ZM
tonic jumped in surprise before bolting to where the arrow came from intending to rip up who ever did that's arm or whatever.
Core
He saw a male human. “Watch our you two! Basilisks are deadly, I’ve never seen one this far from the desert...” Shatter scratched the arrow out, blue blood stained that side of her face.
ZM
tonic bit into this guy's arm and pulled him to the ground.
Core
The guy had on armor. “What are you doing imp?! I saved you!” The man said, throwing Tonic into the dirt. Shatter heard this and hissed, raising her spines. She now could just barely see anything
tonic shook their head. "No! don't hurt her!" tonic growl/whines.
Core
“And why not?! They are dangerous!” The man yelled
Core
(He’s so cute argh!!! Shatter you better protect the bean!!)
ZM
"She wasn't hurting anyone." They say firmly. "Who are you?" Tonic asks sitting up. (Yee shatter, tonics gonna get in all kinds of trouble.)
Core
“It is after my steed! And I am Orion, rider of the winged horse.” He said.
ZM
"Funny that, we just met the representative of orion somewhere else." Tonic says quietly. "Do you mean that filly? It's hardly a steed."
Core
The horse seemed to hear this and charged at Tonic. Shatter heard the galloping and quickly got over Tonic, using herself as a shield.
ZM
Tonic being the skittish thing that he is jumped again. tonic tries to reason with the man saying they didn't know what they were doing and they were just looking for something. Chara saunters out of the cave thing holding the small dragon in her arms petting it as it purred watching the spectacle.
Core
It was a hatchling, fire red and covered in black spots, The man calmed down the horse, who and a golden collar with an indigo gem in the center. Shatter stayed over Tonic.
ZM
Tonic looked to shatter as if questioning if they should ask for the stone.
Core
Shatter nodded softly( Night)
ZM
"um... sir? That is actually what we're looking for." Tonic points to the horses neck. Chara steps over to them.
Core
“The gem? Do you have the ring?” He asked.
ZM
"Yes." Tonic nods as chara fishes it out of her pocket and shows him.
Core
“I see, well...” he took the gem out of the collar. “This is yours then.”
ZM
Chara's hands are full or else she would have taken it it, tonic takes it instead. "Why are you giving it up so easily?" Tonic asks
Core
“That barrier is not easy to get through, not to find it in the first place. You passed the test.” He said
ZM
Tonic looks unsure but thanks him anyway. Chara pats the dragons head until it hears the filly make a sound and flies over to it.
Core
Shatter turned back to her normal form, holding a hand over her left eye.
ZM
Tonic motioned for shatter to go down to their level
Core
Shatter was sitting down. “Oh, you are a shapeshifter.” Orion said “No shit Sherlock.” Shatter hissed, salty because eyes took forever to heal.
ZM
Chara giggles and goes up to pet the pegasus. Tonic heals shatter's eye with a drop of magic form their claw.
Core
“It needs to heal naturally, otherwise it may miss details.” Shatter explained to Tonic The Pegasus stomped a foot.
ZM
Tonic pouts and cuddles next to shatter instead. Chara copies the pegasus.
Core
Shatter sighed. “You two okay if we stay here until my eye heals?” The Pegasus snorted
ZM
"Fine with me" Chara says. Tonic shrugs
Core
Shatter laid down, closing her eyes. “You know, my core is blind.”
ZM
"Yeah? Why do you bring this up?" Chara asks while inspecting it's wings
Core
“Well, the first thing I ever saw was death, made me not want to see any more, but, I’m glad I can see you and Tonic.” Shatter said with a slight smile
ZM
"Awwwww~ break my heart, shatter!" Chara grins pulling at the wing to see how it bends. Tonic placed their head on shatter's belly resting with her.
Core
The Pegasus smacked Chara with its wing. Shatter continued to just chat. “Remember that other Nightmare? I think that’s because the Norse au shares the same creator as ours.”
ZM
"That so? Guess that'd make sense hm?" Chara shakes her head from the hit. Surprised by how soft the feathers are.
Core
“Yeah, in some of the aus with actual stars are limited, but rather interesting. One is where everyone is like opposite, then one where Dream and Nightmare swapped, one were the apocalypse happened, one with medieval kingdoms, and one where Geno and Dream made this deal.”
ZM
"What kinda deal?" Chara leaves the horse alone.
Core
“Not sure, but that au is a lot different from the others because of it.” Shatter explained
ZM
"Hm." Chara sits by shatter and starts to play with the loose rocks nearby. Orion and his pegasus head back to the hideaway
Core
“And one au, stars are bio weapons.” Shatter added
ZM
"Like you?"
Core
“No, no. Like robots with a soul stone core, you know, made by humans. Let me tell you that the one with the blades is ridiculously fast.” Shatter explained
ZM
"I'd bet. A star made only for fighting would really be something scary. So shatter, I'm a little foggy on bioweapons, it means using living things like germs or whatever to fight other living things? So even though they are made by humans they're still alive. Right?"
Core
“Well, it literally means ‘living weapon’ so anything alive, and they are.” Shatter said
ZM
"Uh-huh, how did they make them?"
Core
“Don’t know, I left fairly quickly.”
ZM
"Aw, that's too bad."
Core
“You would leave too if you were getting your ass kicked by something too fast to hit.” Shatter defended herself
ZM
"Not blaming ya, but it's still a shame. What was this star's name? Cause it's reminding me a lot of shadow lol"
Core
“C-5.”
ZM
Tonic fell asleep, "i'ma call her carma with a C. I hate the stupid code names. Anyway, what was your favorite place you've visited shatter?" Chara checks her soul with the small peice of gradients core sticking out of it still. The spread of the green seems to have stopped though. Lv 15.
Core
“Hmmm the jelly shroom forest.”
ZM
"sounds squishy."
Core
Shatter opened her eyes, the left one now healed. “So, ready for the next one?”
ZM
"i am but looks like tonic passed out."
Core
Shatter looked and chuckled, picking up the sleeping boy. “Well, next is dragon, so chances are it’s going to be here.”
ZM
draco's color glowed a silvery white with a tint of red. chara looks at it "i'll take your word for it, but i'd find it strange she'd hide two in the same world." tonic shifted in shatter's arms getting more comfortable.
Core
“Well, I told you before, this world is one of the most dangerous.” She reminded. “We should really stay here until Tonic Wales up....”
ZM
The watch's brightness stayed steady. "I say we go into their little cave if they'll let us."
Core
“We’re fine right here.” Shatter said, setting Tonic down.
ZM
"whatever. you know that thing could be out for hours. why don't you just wake them up?"
Core
“Because that is rude.” Shatter said.
ZM
"pfff, fine. maybe the dragon will come to us."
Core
“Not likely...” Shatter said
ZM
chara lays down with a huff.
Core
“Sorry, I know you are excited.”
ZM
she grunts as a reply.
Core
“Look, how about truth or dare in the meantime?”
ZM
"sure, how's that work? i made up shit when i played that with asy."
08/13/2019
ZM
"I never got to play with other humans. I just watched them sometimes."
Core
“Well, I say truth or dare, then you choose to answer something with only the truth or do a dare.”
ZM
"Uhhhh okay truth"
Core
“Are you using me?” Shatter asked, rather seriously
ZM
Chara was instantly shocked. She opened and closed her mouth unsure what to say.
ZM
"....uh.." she laughs it off. "I thought this was supposed to be fun?"
Core
“Yes that is the general purpose, But it is also good excuse to get answers,” Shatter said
ZM
She blinks. "And if I refuse to answer?"
Core
“You get punched in the arm.”
ZM
Chara groans. "Shatter! Come on! I don't even think I know the answer to that!"Tonic stirs from the noise before falling back asleep.
Core
“Then you accept the punch?”
ZM
"....I guess."
Core
Shatter punched her in the air hard enough for it to sting. “Your turn
ZM
She rubs her arm disheartened with a sigh. "Truth or dare?"
Core
“Dare.” Shatter said
ZM
"I dare you to wake tonic up so we can fucking leave."
Core
“Fine, Fine.” Shatter said, gently shaking Tonic. “Come on, wake up sleepy head.”
ZM
Tonic slowly shakes their head and blinks at shatter half alseep.
ZM
"Yes shatter?" He asks yawning.
ZM
"Shatter's being mean to me so I made her wake you up."
Core
“Sorry, “Shatter apologized, I promise you can rest on the way.
ZM
"Mmm, okay." Tonic wraps their arms around shatter's neck closing their eyes again.
Core
Shatter carried Tonic like a backpack. “You got the ring?” Shatter asked Chara
ZM
"Sure do." She holds it up as it shines brightly to the north.
Core
“Well, the sea orc’s lair is north..” Shatter said
ZM
"Alright." She walks that way. Unnaturally silent for her
Core
“Hey, Sorry if I made you upset.” Shatter said
ZM
She shrugs. "...It made me mad that I don't know the answer. Not your fault."
Core
“Oh, I see, well do tell me when you figure it out.”
ZM
"...fine." They see the orc's lair ahead of them. Murmuring can be found in that direction.
Core
It was a cave surrounded by water, Shatter turned into a lapras. ‘We have to be careful of rocs.’
ZM
"Yeah I'd assume seeing the name. Think they captured the dragon?"
Core
“No, rocs are giant birds, they might They to eat me in this form.’
ZM
"Well then get out of that form stupid?"
Core
‘What else do you expect me to use? Rocs will eat anything I do!’
ZM
"Try a laprass? How big are these things?" She looks around to see one.
Core
There was what looked like a cliff, at least 1500 feee tall, it opened an eye and stretched out it’s wings. ‘Shit!’
ZM
"WOOOW!" Chara squeals. "SO PRETTY!!!"
Core
The roc looked over, seeing shatter. ‘Shit! Shit! Shit!” Shatter hissed, diving down
ZM
"Shatter! Look how cool it is!"
Core
‘It’s not cool!’ Shatter said as the roc flew into the air, watching the water.
ZM
The roc blocked all light out from the sun that was coming up. "Shouldn't we just leave??? Why the hell are you diving?"
"I feel tree cover would be better!"
Core
The roc dove its talons into the water and caught a whale, easily lifting the giant mammal into the air.
ZM
"Yeah, like that." Chara dunks her head under trying to find shatter but she sees nothing untill she notices a faint light that she assumes was tonic on shatter's back.
Core
‘Wasn’t me!’ Shatter cheered as she surfaced, letting Chara on her back so they could head to the lair
ZM
Tonic shakes off like a dog and chara gets on with them. "How fast did you dive?"
Core
‘Fast enough apparently.’
ZM
"Yeah sure." They get to the shore of the cave. Chara hops off into the black sand.
ZM
muttering is much louder on the shore. Chara sneaks around to the edge of the cave.
ZM
Chara sees a big gathering of orcs circling something, chara's not sure what it is. She quietly relays that info to shatter.
ZM
(These are sea orcs)
ZM
"perhaps. If the gem's in there that'll make this difficult. How strong do ya think these are?"
Core
“Well, a freybug won’t work... but a naga will.” Shatter said before turning into a cobra with four arms and a scorpion stinger at the tail
ZM
"so we're just gonna crash that party?"
Core
‘Hell Yeah’ Shatter hissed slithering over
ZM
Chara follows, they notice them right as they enter the cave and start making screaming like sounds at shatter and chara.
Core
Shatter was highly venomous in this form and would paralyze her victims
ZM
One of the orc's came over (Wait so, the orcs are in the water in a cave on the island right?) Jumping out of the water and whipping their tail at shatter's torso knocking her of balance.
Core
The cave is like the one kyogre is in)) Shatter hissed as she used her four arms to spin back around
ZM
some of the orcs go on the land to attack, biting at shatter's legs. Another snaps at chara as she hops on it back
Core
Shatter quickly nabbed the one that was going to attack Chara.
ZM
It slams against shatter as the others do something similar as back up. Chara desides to go check what they were circling while they're destracted. Chara manages to get around most of them as they attack shatter. There's a big pool of blood fogging the area making it hard to see what's inside.
Core
There was a red gem in the water. Shatter’s teeth weren’t for tearing to she had to resort to her claws and stinger.
ZM
Chara darted into the fog grabbing for the gem she saw a glimpse of. As she waved her arms in the blood she hit chunks of flesh and bone. She eventually got what she wanted though it was covered in fleash. She swims up unharmed and calls "shatter! I got it let's leave!"
Core
Shatter turned back and teleported to Chara before teleporting to Tonic
ZM
they get out and the orc's aren't happy about that as they search for them, shatter and the others are on the other side of the lake, pretty safe from being found. "wooo! that was fun!" chara says as she wipes the gore off of the gem.
Core
“Sure, for you.”
ZM
"don't be like that. it's not like you got very hurt!"
Core
“True, but I was more worried about you.”
ZM
"yeah well you shouldn't be..... shatter? would you hate me if i was only using you?"
Core
“No, I don’t think I would, I don’t think I could at this point.”
ZM
"tch. well you should."
Core
Shatter shrugged, “it’s not the first time and it won’t be the last, I’m just glad you are actually a great friend.”
( there's the color list, i got rid of the dog and bull cause they're too similar to wolf and touros. )
Core
Shatter started to say something and sighed, before looking at what was next; (file above)
ZM
(so that's the dog? or what?)
Core
(Greater dog)
Core
“Yeah but this is a different kind.”
ZM
"Right. I guess we'll just have to see when we get there." Tonic says nuzzling into her shoulder.
Core
Shatter nodded and turned into a lapras again. ‘Come on Chara’
ZM
She makes not a sound and gets on the lapras's back.
Core
Shatter swam across the shore
ZM
Chara stands on her shell looking into the water
Core
‘Truth or dare’
ZM
Chara shakes with anger 'shut up.' Though tonic couldn't hear them they could see the tension between them.
"Ummm. Did something happen while I was asleep?"
Chara rolls her eyes. "No, it's none of your concern "
Core
‘I’m just trying to lighten the mood.’ Shatter said
ZM
'Because that worked so well before.'
Core
‘Ok, how about I make you something? Like chocolate?’
ZM
'Not hungry shatter. Like i said before, just forget it.'
Core
Shatter sighed as they reached the next shore
ZM
Tonic and chara get off, this shore is very muddy. The watch calls for the next stone with a pure red color. Tonic looks around "which way shatter?"
Core
“There are some plains nearby, drakes normally live there.”
ZM
"Oh, so there's many of them?"
Core
“Well there are tons of drakes, hydras are rarer.”
ZM
Tonic nods and starts trotting through the plains.
Core
They saw some creature’s run past
ZM
Tonic looks back to make sure shatter's there before they go close to the animals.
Core
Shatter was trying to make up with Chara
ZM
"Shatter! I'm serious, forget about it!" The drakes land near the group seemingly curious of them and the light.
Core
(Drakes can’t fly, they run)
ZM
( dheidbdksbd, kk. I was thinking of a different critter. Want to send me a pic.)
Shatter growled at the pack.
ZM
They sniffed and snarled at shatter's hostility
Core
Shatter turned into a war Drake, different from these Common Drakes, she had her tail down, a sign she wasn’t interested in a fight
ZM
They weren't wanting a fight either, but they did seem interested in shatter's transformation and tonic in general. One nudged against tonics head with its snout.
Core
Shatter raised her tail and growled, lowering her body, showing she was defensive about Tonic like he was a pup
ZM
It didn't listen to shatter as it pushed tonic to the ground starting to lick them. Tonic giggled pushing it away.
Core
Shatter growled at this, showing her disapproval to the pack
ZM
They back off, as this isn't their territory and they were just looking for food to bring back to their group leader (the hydra)
They start to leave and drag the prey they already had.
Core
Shatter growled softly. Before sniffing the ground
ZM
Tonic shakes off the slobber and joins shatter attempting to smell for the gem as well though they can't smell anything
Core
‘Got the scent, come on.’ Shatter said, running towards the source
ZM
They both follow quickly
Core
One of the packs look outs saw shatter enter their territory
ZM
It made a howl like sound and instantly a a new group of drakes came after the group.
(meet pickett)
ZM
august 14 leo
Core
Shatter growled and kept herself in between the pack and the others
08/15/2019
ZM
The pack reached them, nipping at shatter and roaring, telling them to get lost.
Core
Shatter had more armor and sharper teeth, but she was outnumbered.
ZM
One rammed into shatter knocking her over, the drake climbed on her and started ripping st her neck.
Core
Shatter used her strong back legs to tear at her attacker’s stomach, her long claws meant for traction on land, thinking quickly she turned into a Shedu, or a winged lion, the natural predators of drakes. ‘Ok, I’m done playing fair
ZM
The drake's belly was pretty ripped up and it backed away as much as it could looking up at the shedu. The other drakes still had a job to do, no matter what, so even though they hesitate they attack her again anyway. One got a good grip on one of her wings.
Core
Shatter spun around and attacked the Drake, swatting it.
ZM
the cerberus noticing the trouble it's pack was in, grabbed the gem hiding it in its mouth, and sprinted towards the group. It seemed to be able to talk through telepathy. It clearly wasn't it's power, but given to it by someone else. 'Get out of home' it growled like an angry child.
‘Not until we talk!’ Shatter hissed, roaring at some of the drakes
ZM
One of the cerberus' heads ordered the pack to back up. The head on the right said 'there nothing to say! Trespass!'
Core
‘Only to find you!’ Shatter hissed,
ZM
they relax except the head on the right. The one on the left asks 'what want stranger?'
Core
‘We are after the gem’s of Singularity.’
ZM
'Can't have, it master's' says the middle 'important to master.'
Core
(So far the highest points is 20 with the exorcist) ‘Yes, But we found her ring, and wish to restore it.’ Shatter said.
ZM
The heads talk amungst eachother before looking at the group silently. Chara grows sick of it. "Well??? Make up your damn mind! Can we have it or not?" The head on the left says 'must check worthiness' 'Destroy shedu nest.' The heads all nod in agreement.
‘You want me to destroy a Shedu nest? They are an endangered species, how about I do you one better? A bull hydra nest.’
ZM
(That tail tho) 'hydra's don't bother pack. Must be shedu.'
Core
‘Fine, But only one cub, I do not want to be responsible for the extinction of a species’
ZM
'Than no deal.' They nod and turntail.
Core
‘Ugh Fine, I’ll destroy the nest!’
ZM
'Good' head on right than says ' back before sundown or test failed.'
Core
‘Fine...’ Shatter huffed, letting Chara and Tonic on her back
ZM
They climb on and chara sticks her tounge out at the beast as they run in the direction of the nest.
Shatter flew up to the nest. ‘They didn’t say we had to kill the cubs...’ Shatter told herself as she tore up the fur padding that made the nest. (This is a white Shedu)
(A roc☝️)
ZM
There were four cubs shivering covered in their moms shed fur watching shatter confused. The Cubs had little fur and if they were to leave they would certainly freeze.
Core
Shatter changed the nest, destroying the old one.
ZM
One of the cubs grew more curious and went up to shatter, they'd never seen a non artic of their kind. It made a little cub sound as if questioning her.
Core
Shatter chuffed nudging the cub back before flying away
ZM
"...shatter?" Tonic asks. "I don't think... that'll be good enough for the cerberus."
Core
‘They said destroy the nest, and I did.’
‘They never said I couldn’t fix it later’
ZM
tonic shrugs and enjoys the ride, not sure about that.
When they get back the cerberus is instantly unpleased. 'Didn't do as asked!'
Core
Shatter landed. ‘Yes I did, you never said I couldn’t rebuild it, nor did you say I had to kill the cubs.’
ZM
The cerberus is angry about the miscommunication. 'You know what ment! No gem until what asked is done! Whole nest! We watch, do it right.' The one who game them telepathy also gave sight sharing.
ZM
( *gave them)
Core
‘Fine!’ Shatter hissed, flying back. ‘Chara, can you keep the cubs warm?’
ZM
"Yeah."
Core
‘Ok, Shatter landed by the nest. There were three cubs
ZM
'Where is the other one?" Tonic asks.
Core
Shatter looked around and saw it fell off the cliff. ‘Poor thing.’
ZM
"more like dumb thing." chara says getting off her back and gathering the other cubs.
Core
‘The wind up here is bad’ Shatter explained, waiting for Chara to get the cubs before tearing up the nest
ZM
"shouldn't have been so close to the edge." after shatter's done chara makes a bubble and puts them in it. than she puts a fire around it to keep them warm. the babies can't break the bubble but a mom surly could.
Core
Shatter made her work quick. ‘Can you leave them here in the bubble?’
ZM
"yeah, they'll be fine."
the cubs scratch at the walls of the bubble.
Core
Shatter felt deep guilt leaving, but got herself to do it
ZM
when they get back once again the Cerberus just glares at them. it spits out the gem onto the ground. it's given up on it's communication and considers them strong enough for the gem anyway. if the cerberus could have told them better it would have meant 'kill all the cubs available. but it didn't so pff'
Core
Shatter took the gem.
ZM
"alright then." chara holds out the watch to shatter.
Core
Shatter placed the gem.
ZM
it fit into place and started to call for the golden quezlequatle.
it was clear that that gem wasn't in this world.
Core
Shatter looked at the file, ‘I’ve never heard of this au’
ZM
shatter opens a portal to a very dark space similar to the void. in the distance there is flashing lights changing colors. "weird place" chara says.
Core
Shatter walked through, cautious
ZM
the other two follow and the portal instantly disappears as if it didn't ever exist. as shatter tries to make another portal she's unable to. she can still shapeshift though.
Core
Shatter paused
ZM
this place echos like crazy and chara's having way too much fun with it. she starts by stomping on the 'ground' and than starts yelling nonsense. "SHATERR! THIS IS AN AMAZING ECHO!"
Core
‘I can hear that.’ Shatter smiled
ZM
chara walks to the flashing lights and they emit a song per each structure. she taps one and it blinks off.
ZM
"Hm.. I bet we need to recreate a song. The question is what is the song." Tonic steps on a tile that makes a 'bloop' sound
Core
Shatter turned into a Chatot and repeated the sound
Core
(Crazy Idea: T.G. Au Dream and Nightmare would always fly at night together because it made them feel like all the pain of having to hide was gone, but one night Dream kept her jacket on and said she wasn’t in the mood, Nightmare shrugged it off and flew, Dream watching from the rooftops. The next night, Dream told Nightmare she was tired and it was overcast. This time her sister was concerned and asked if anything was wrong. Dream forced a smile and told Nightmare that everyone was ok. Later that night as the two slept, Dream had a nightmare where she was flying during the early morning and a wire net tore up her wing, she crashed down, exposed to humans who tore off the wing. Dream woke up in a cold sweat, pulling the blanket closer to her as she looked at her sister. The third night came and Dream still didn’t want to fly with Nightmare. “What’s with you recently?” Nightmare asked. “It’s nothing, I promise, you just enjoy yourself.” Dream replied. “Stop lying to me Dream! You haven’t been able to sleep, and haven’t been eating either!” Nightmare said to her sibling who tugged on her own jacket sleeve. “Why won’t you fly?” “I’m sorry, but I don’t want to tonight.” Nightmare went to Dream, picking her sister in the air. “Why are you continuing to lie to me?!” “I’m sorry!” Dream said as her jacket fell off, revealing her left wing was gone. Nightmare in shock landed, Dream quickly hid her bloody back with her jacket, looking down. “I’m sorry Nightmare...” It’s based on a new song I added ‘Two birds on a wire’)
ZM
As chara pushed more buttons something was chamging. The area they were in seemed to get smaller everytime something was pushed.
Core
‘Hold on...we might get squished’
ZM
Chara stops. "Have a better idea genius?"
Core
Shatter looked at the floor, before turning into Ironhide. Then stepping in the correct pattern. “Simple key puzzle, typical of Nintendo games.”
( look at this new boi I got.) Chara cocks her head as a way is opened. "How'd you know the melody though???"
Core
“The height of the plates, it’s minimal but enough that I noticed.”
ZM
Chara then noticed and huffs. "Fiiiiine" she goes through the gateway and is transported to a forest area with ghost like creatchers. Also there's a frog just sitting there. Chara goes over and pokes the frog. It makes a croak but doesn't move
Core
(The creature is Bioweapon!Killer) “An echo forest?” Ironhide asked
ZM
One of the ghosts came up to iron hide looking down at her.
Ironhide sat down. “Hey buddy
ZM
it made gurgling sounds and shrunk down seemingly sitting aswell. Tonic went off on their own to try to find clues to the gem. The watch doesn't glow in this au. Tonic comes appon a street with a bunch of traffic cones blocking the way.
Core
Ironhide turned into Plasma, her ghost type form.
ZM
A bunch of other ghosts that look similar with different colors gather around shatter. Chara picks up the frog and it turns into a small egg. If she puts it back down it turns back. "Hehe. Cool."
Core
“They are wisps....” Plasma whispered

hi jordan!!! first of all - a few people have already said this, but OMG i look away for a week and come back to 12 new pages of scrumptious snippets and asks and new aus??? i adore your creativity and im so excited for the future journeys you'll take us on with regulus, harry, tom, and more!! plus i just wanted to say, your writing is really inspiring - i take a lot of english courses at school so im working on my own fiction, and you rly inspire the inner procrastinator in me
not just for schoolwork, but for fanfic too? i'll read some sexually charged scene you wrote with hadrian and riddle, and my inner fangirl mind just goes !!!!! i too, am also a victim of my own imagination lol - i have so many tomarry aus constantly floating in my head, time travel and body swaps and 'what-ifs?' and even aus of fanfics i read??? but i never WRITE them haha ;; but its such a fun ship to think about! so i commiserate with you!!! (2/3)
also i love your blog's new look! i find its super cool you have your asks so easy to navigate without reblogs clogging it up, the direct line of open communication with your readers is so kind of you and we all really appreciate it(3/3)
------
You guys gotta keep an eye on me. The second there is no supervision I’m off spinning my wheels and that’s bad for all of us hahaha. I’m glad you like what I’m doing though! It’s always fun to share ideas with you guys. And it’s so cool that you are writing your own stuff! I know that juggling act well, since uni was a wild time trying to balance fanfiction and my course work. Even if you never write them, I’m so happy your creative neurons are firing away! I have so many unspoken fanfiction ideas that I’ll never write, but just thinking about them sometimes kick-starts the writing process for another story for me.
And thank you! I love the new blog too. It’s so sleek and clean and makes navigation so much easier in my eyes. And yeah, I don’t really reblog too much stuff on here, mainly because I wanted my blog dedicated more to answering asks then have it a gigantic mess of all my new fixations! Talking with you guys is one of the highlights of writing after all!
Have a good day darling xx

Decided to try decorating my sketchbook cover... And glad I took a pic before putting vanish. My skin tones are chalk markers and did not like the varnish. So, orders some paint markers with skin tones so I can do more human illustrations... Mainly due to a plot bunny that created below.
I had a random thought that Naofumi's hoodie looks similar to Chara's sweater.. And it ballooned into this idea of Iwatani Naofumi is the grown up Frisk from a Flawed Pacifist Run and his family dragged him to Japan when he tried to help monster kind from the Surface after failing so many times.
Frisk couldn't Reset with heing dragged away from Mt.Ebott, but he did keep Save and Load... In a "glitchy way" as he puts it, so tries not to use it. Instead, he used his label of "otaku" to cover his research on magic and he even figured out how to use magic like the monsters... But it only makes him feel way deeper and more than the humanity around him. Especially with Chara constantly trying to help keep Frisk determined as a ghost narrator to his life. With being worn down by his regrets and tried to drown depression in light novels, he finds... Well, it almost knocks him out, but found the book "Records of the Four Holy Weapons." With reading of three of the four heroes... Frisk's Determination swells and he summons up the menu... And slams his fist onto the Reset button out of his own self-hatred and wanting one last chance to give the Underground its happy ending it deserves.
When everything goes yellow with light as the button shatters, Frisk hears a voice he vaguely remember of the dreams of pure darkness.
"Very... Interesting..."
"It is... not as planned..."
"But you might have... discovered a better solution."
"Heh... Stay determined... Little hero."
"You will need it... for this last run..."
Frisk wakes up at the base of Mt.Ebott in both his childhood clothing and his "Naofumi's" clothes. With believing he got a jump start, Frisk rushes through the woods to Ebott Village... Only to find the seaside and the destruction of a village... With the dead bodies that looks like monsters, yet human like Souls floated near these bodies and slowly fading.
When Frisk reaches for a Soul, he realizes a metal shield on his arm and remember the book he read.
There was four heroes and it seemed Frisk hadn't just Reset... He gotten dragged into the world of the book as its Shield Hero... With all of the Underground with him.
... And this turned into quite a dump. Gotta love when the brain likes being silly. Might work on this crossover idea while working on my Pastel AU on the backburner. Crossovers are easier than Tri-crossovers afterall.

Idea that will NEVER See the Light of Day!
Okay, so, I’m going through a FUNK right now! So, I’m just going to put all my ideas that are going through my head and the ones that I actually written down here. Feel free to use any of them! Just tag me if ya do so I can R&R!
Art Ideas:
My Creative Buddies/Multi-Fandom Fiends as Yugioh Cards:
Okay, so I’ve kinda have some inspiration! A while ago I posted that I’ve been going through somethings and needed a distraction. Someone reached out and gave me an Art Request! I’m going to do it! I just need kick myself to get going! The Art Request is Joey Wheeler from Yugioh in Prince Aldan’s Costume from Disney’s Aladdin.
The idea and inspiration is draw all of my Creative Buddies (Mutals) and my Multi-Fandom Fiends as Yugioh Cards! And have a little text about the cards. Their special Attacks/Abilities, which cards go great with them.
Don’t Draw Chase!:
This is a two parter!
Part 1: I do the little challenge/tag reblog of my drawing Chase and then gets transported to where Chase got transported too
Part 2: I draw my Creative Buddies/Multi-Fandom Fiends who are Artists, drawing Chase and then they get transported to where Chase gets transported too! The Plot Twist is that they call me up wanting to know if I can help them get back, only for me to find out that they somehow got transported into a story or comic that I was working on!
Animal AU: This is based on @septic-dr-schneep Animal AU. The Egos as Animals! I want to draw JJ as a Rabbit thumping his big paw in Morse Code. Something like this, thumpthumpthump Thump Thump Thump thumpthumpthump. SOS
I’m planning on drawing all the Egos as the different Animals that I want to draw them as in the Animal AU that’s probably never going to see the light of day of me writing it!
JJ as a Rabbit. Chase as a Golden Retriever. Schneep as an Owl. Marvin as a Cat or something in the feline family. Jackie as Service Dog. Anti as a Buzzer/Vulture something along those lines.
Draw this in Your Own Style: I don’t think this is going to happen. Mainly, b/c I don’t have my own style or I just don’t know what my style is! I wanted to draw one of @huffletrax Marvin’s Drawings. This might come around, when I get myself to stop staring at a blank screen or wasting time scrolling through Reddit or Tumblr and actually do something!
Fantasy AU: Inspired by @rogue-of-broken-time's Fantasy AU. I'm not sure if I'll ever get to draw this!
I want to draw like a mini comic or something. You're walking along a path in the woods to find someone. It's getting pretty dark, and you have no idea where to go or what's actually out here. You see tiny little lights and then you see a floating eyeball?! The green floating eyeball waves it's tail at you to follow it. It leads down the path and then off the path to clearing. There you see the person who you've been searching for!
"Ah, I see you found them, Sam! Come in, come in! Have a seat!" The person points to one of the stones to sit on. "So, what can I do for ya?" You hand them a scroll that King has order you, the Royal Scribe to give to them. "Ah, so you want to know what actually happened? You're the Royal Scribe? The one to keep all the records? I see. Well, I can help you! I know what did happen all to well." They look off into the distance for some time. "My name's Rogue and I'll tell you the tale."
Writing Ideas:
Animal AU: This based on @septic-dr-schneep's Animal AU. Thank You Rilia for the inspiration but I'm sorry that I won't be able to write anytime soon!

Some time passes and Sarah and Jackie are having a time of their lives!

Being able to help others and their beloved pets. However, Sarah and her friends notice that something really weird is going on in Septic City. All the stray Animals have started to disappear and it's not do the Animal Shelters either!

Now, with Sarah in his grasp and them being out near the city limits of in one of the abandon warehouses, the Mad Scientist can finally start using her as a test subject!
Sarah's father, Septic City's Police Chief asks help of someone he never thought in a million years for help to help bring his daughter back in piece, Jackieboy Man.
Fantasy AU: Inspired by @rogue-of-broken-time's Fantasy AU. Thank You so much for the inspiration Rogue! Hopefully, this might get written!
Summary: In a far away land, a Kingdom lives in peace with Magic and Non-Magic users co-existing peacefully. But things haven't always been, this peaceful between the two Races.

Until the Corrupted King declares war and secrets of the Corrupted King and the heir to the Magical Kingdom comes to the surface.
Wrestling AU: This idea is inspired by the YouTuber Tournament Series by N60Sean! He uses Create A Wrestlers of different YouTubers and it got me thinking! A crossover of YouTube and Wresting!
Summary: Felix Kjellberg aka "The King of YouTube" decides to start his own Wrestling Company with the help of his friends and Indie Wrestlers!

Egopocaplse: The Universe/World of the Egos that I've been writing about! I'm not sure if I'll ever get to write the one-shots/multi chapter stories about the Egos that I want to write. I have most of the Head Canons of the Egos and what I like to write about these guys and have an idea on where I want to go with it. And with the all the Guest Stars too! I just have no idea if I'll be able to actually not only write the stories but also finish the damn things! I have so many WIPs it's not even funny and I want to freakin' finish them but it seems like every time I'm stuck on a story, I get an idea for another!
And no, I can't really hyper focus on one thing and though I'm super into it! My brain just work like that! I don't know why, but I just doesn't!

aka- lucas and eliott are rivals who are forced to room together for their final year of ballet school before they try to enter the company. we can all see where this is going.

**tw: brief mentions of eating disorder, ocd, ptsd, anxiety, references to past sexual abuse, brief allusion to past suicidal ideation**
Samedi 11:24
“You’re cute.”
Lucas scrunched his nose up, shaking his head from where he was laying in bed, facing Eliott. When Eliott lifted his head to readjust the way he was lying down Lucas saw pillow creases on the side of his cheek, and it was adorable.
“You are. You’re so cute,” Eliott repeated, tapping Lucas on the nose. In all honesty, Lucas knew he was cute, objectively, but he’d keep refusing if it meant Eliott kept telling him so.
He grabbed one of Eliott’s hands and stretched their joined palms up to the ceiling before flopping them back down between the two of them, tracing small circles on the palm of Eliott’s hand. “I’m not,” he lied.
“You are.”
“I don’t believe you.”
“Well, you should.”
“Hmmm…”
“Hmmm…” Eliott mimicked, screwing his face up in a way Lucas figured was supposed to match what Lucas had done prior.
Lucas laughed, ducking his head down. “Stop. Now you’re cute.”
“I wasn’t before?” Eliott gasped in faux offense. Lucas merely raised one eyebrow, looking away pointedly. Eliott gasped again, this time in indignation. “Rude!”
Before Lucas could do or say anything else, Eliott unwrapped his hand from Lucas’ and used it to pull him closer. It was nice until Eliott started to tickle him. Lucas cursed his past self for admitting how ticklish he was, because now Eliott could use that to his advantage.
“Eli! Eli! Stop ah—” Lucas laughed, breaths coming in short gasps as he tried and failed to squirm away. The light in Eliott’s eyes was almost blinding it burned so bright. Lucas knew it was a foolish wish, but he wished it could stay like that forever. Anytime Eliott had a smile on his face, Lucas felt like all was right in the world.
Eliott stopped tickling him abruptly and it was only then that Lucas realized they’d rolled so Eliott was hovering over him, pillow creases still apparent on his face and the sun streaming through the window framing him in a golden halo. Lucas’ heart stopped briefly when he realized that this was possibly the most beautiful Eliott had ever looked.
He lifted a hand and placed it on Eliott’s chest, fingers tracing idly over the ink tattooed there. “I’ve never asked, when did you get this?”
Eliott looked down at his own chest, as if he’d forgotten there was anything there. He paused before speaking. “Over the summer,” he said at last.
“Why?” Lucas asked, curious. He’d never really taken Eliott for a tattoo person, but he had to admit it did turn him on a little bit.
Eliott dropped his eyes, biting his lip nervously. “Um, I’d just gotten out of a really bad depression. An episode, I guess, is what it was. It was one I didn’t think I’d get out of…” he trailed off, and Lucas understood what he was saying without saying. The pain that exploded from his heart was unmatched, but he said nothing, waiting for Eliott to continue.
“But I did get out of it, mainly thanks to Idriss and Sofiane, and I got this as a reminder that life was worth it, I guess,” he finished, shrugging to the best of his ability, given his position propped up over Lucas.
“I think it’s beautiful,” Lucas said earnestly, “I think you’re beautiful.”
He was, he was so beautiful. And instead of denying it, Eliott simply closed the space between them, pressing a gentle but deeply intentioned kiss to Lucas’ lips. It wasn’t like they hadn’t kissed in a long time or anything, but the kiss sent every ounce of dopamine in Lucas’ brain rushing into his body.
“I’m so in love with you, you have no idea,” Lucas said breathlessly as they broke apart, running his fingers through Eliott’s hair. He felt such a love for Eliott that he couldn’t even put it into words. “You’ve ruined me, you know. You’ve made all my expectations for love way too high. You can never leave me, I don’t know how I’d manage.”
He said it like he was joking, but it was the truth. He’d found so much in Eliott that he didn’t even know existed, so much of himself and so much of the world. It was unthinkable that he’d ever lose it, but there was always that fear.
“I could never,” Eliott said seriously, brushing their noses together, “The person I am when I’m not with you is someone I never want to be again. I told you once but I’ll continue to tell you a million times: you’re it for me Lucas Lallemant. In this universe and in all the others you’ve dreamed up in your mind. They haven’t created a word big enough to express how much I love you.”
Lucas stroked down Eliott’s cheekbone, willing himself to not go all in so fast. Somehow the words Eliott had spoken were real, and Lucas could tell how much he meant them. It seemed crazy that he could be so happy when just a few days ago his world had tipped entirely on its axis, but somehow, he could be. And he wasn’t going to waste a moment of that happiness.
It was unclear which one of them dove back in for a kiss, or maybe they met halfway, but the only important thing was that they were kissing again. They were kissing, they were kissing, and Lucas was floating, was floating, and the light making its way through the window was working its way into Lucas’ heart and soul, heart and soul.
Lucas gripped Eliott tighter by the back of his neck, and Eliott pressed down further, connecting their bodies deeper and closer. Each kiss was like a song, one Lucas didn’t know the lyrics to yet, but he knew it would be one of his favorites once he did.
“Hey, Luc— WHAT THE FUCK—”
Eliott and Lucas broke apart in the blink of an eye, Lucas shoving Eliott off of him and almost off the bed so fast neither of them were really able to register it. Lucas blinked at the door, doing his best to look innocent, and probably doing a terrible job.
Yann stood in the doorway, mouth agape, eyebrows creased like he was trying to solve some sort of math equation that just didn’t add up. Lucas had sworn they’d locked the door to their suite… but no, he remembered, Eliott had gone out early in the morning to get them croissants from the bakery down the street to celebrate not getting kicked out. He probably hadn’t thought to lock the door when he got back, and Lucas had no reason to lock the door to his bedroom, or even close it for that matter.
“I can explain,” Lucas said, filling the tense, silent space in the air.
“You’d better,” Yann agreed incredulously, finally looking Lucas in the eye.
Eliott looked a bit like he was trying to shrink himself in size or hide under the covers, maybe both, and it was so cute it took all of Lucas’ restraint to not reach over and kiss him.
“Sooo…” he began, “I’m dating Eliott.”
Yann looked at him like yeah, no shit, which, fair. “How long has this been a thing?”
“Um… since that one party,” Lucas responded vaguely, not exactly wanting to reveal how long it had actually been. Unluckily for him, Yann knew exactly when he was talking about, given that it was the last party all of them had been at together.
“The one Alexia invited us to.” It wasn’t a question, but Lucas nodded anyway. Yann closed his eyes, rubbing the bridge of his nose between his eyes with his thumb and index finger. “What the fuck,” he repeated, which was appropriate.
“We just wanted to keep it a secret until the show was over, we didn’t want to cause any drama,” Lucas explained. He didn’t want Yann to feel bad or feel like Lucas thought he couldn’t trust him. He hadn’t even told Manon. Yes, Imane knew, but that was mostly because she happened to be there when he was having a mental breakdown.
Yann opened his eyes, dropping his hand. “Yet you did anyway,” he said with a frown.
That was also, unfortunately, true. When he really thought about it, it was a wonder no one else had put the pieces together, given what he and Eliott had both gone through over the past couple of weeks. Lucas shrugged, looking down to realize that from Yann’s perspective it probably looked like he was naked. He cringed slightly to himself, then looked over at Eliott.
“Can you, um, give us a minute?” Lucas asked softly, urgency in his eyes. Eliott thankfully understood right away and he nodded, plucking one of Lucas’ hoodies from the floor and throwing it on, even though it was a bit small. Thank god he was already wearing sweatpants.
The terse silence stayed latent in the air as Eliott, head down, skirted his way around Yann and closed the door behind him. Lucas almost laughed to himself as he heard Eliott’s footsteps break into a soft jog when he left the room.
“Can you—” Lucas began to ask, and Yann caught his drift, grabbing another discarded hoodie and tossing it to where Lucas was still partially hidden under the covers. He just had his boxers on, and he definitely did not need Yann to know that.
Yann sat on the edge of the bed, weariness in his eyes. “He’s not… making you do anything, right?”
“Oh, god, Yann, no! Of course not!” Lucas exclaimed immediately, not even knowing why Yann’s mind went there in the first place.
Yann raised his hands in surrender, widening his eyes. “I just had to make sure dude, I don’t know! You’re the one who’s been talking about how Eliott is the spawn of satan for like five years!”
“I don’t think I ever called him the spawn of satan,” Lucas argued back, which was probably the most unnecessary addition to the conversation.
“You know what I mean.” Lucas did know what he meant. It just made him feel so guilty to think about these days, even when Eliott had reassured him time and time again that there was no hard feelings. They’d both gone through a lot over the years they’d been apart emotionally, and they couldn’t blame each other for the things that had been said and done when it mostly just led to blaming themselves.
“We’ve… worked through it,” Lucas explained, figuring that was the best way to put it.
“All of it?” Yann asked, and Lucas nodded. He knew why Yann was so concerned, and he really did appreciate it. Not many people cared for him like that.
He couldn’t really look at Yann at the moment, so he laid back on his bed and stared up at the ceiling. “He makes me feel so whole, Yann. I didn’t know I could ever feel like this.”
Yann settled down beside him in the spot Eliott just vacated, joining him in gazing at the ceiling. “I believe that’s what our ancestors called ‘love’.”
Lucas nudged him gently, laughing to himself. “I’m aware of that, idiot. I’m so fucking in love.”
“Don’t punch me, but I honestly never thought I’d hear you say that,” Yann said, and Lucas finally turned to look at him.
“Really?”
Yann nodded. “I guess I just didn’t know if you’d ever love yourself enough to let someone else love you, or to realize you deserve that love. I hoped, sure, but I knew that could only do so much. Then, with what you told us about your eating disorder… I’m so sorry, Lucas. I’ve seen you in pain for so long that I let myself get desensitized to it. I shouldn’t have, and I’m going to have to carry that for the rest of my life, but I still did it, and I’m so glad you found someone who saw every part of you and loved and cared for you in the way you deserve.”
An errant tear slipped down Lucas’ cheek as he turned to face Yann fully. Yann was still looking at the ceiling, but Lucas spoke anyway. “Don’t blame yourself for anything Yann. I didn’t want anyone to see that I was struggling, or to call me out on any of my bullshit. Eliott didn’t listen to my silent pleas for normalcy because he’s as stubborn as I am, but you can’t let yourself regret what happened in the past or blame yourself for it, trust me. It doesn’t do anyone any good, least of all yourself.”
“I’m still sorry,” Yann said, finally turning his head, “Please just let me be sorry.”
“I forgive you,” Lucas said, because it was what Yann needed to hear. Lucas didn’t think Yann needed to be forgiven for anything, but he offered up his forgiveness as a stepping stone to not send either of them too far into a regretful spiral.
“He loves you too?” Yann asked seriously.
Lucas smiled, thinking about the way Eliott looked at him like he was more beautiful than any star in the sky. “He does.”
“Jesus, you sappy little shit,” Yann groaned shaking his head. “‘He does’, with that fucking smile? Who are you and what have you done with Lucas Lallemant?”
He knew Yann was joking, but he thought about it. He was different, but it was a good different, a kind of different that made him want to soar, not sink. “I’m Lucas Lallemant 2.0, I think. The new and improved version. I like me better now, although I guess I didn’t really like myself at all before.”
“Well Lucas Lallemant 2.0, I’m your best friend Yann Cazas. Don’t go forgetting that again, ok? I’m with you no matter what. I’m the person you call when you need to hide a body, and you’re the same to me,” Yann said, raising his eyebrows.
“As if I could ever forget you,” Lucas said, half joking half serious. “And thanks, really.”
“Another no homo bro hug?” Yann offered, and Lucas didn’t even have time to respond verbally before Yann sat up and pulled him close, wrapping his arms around him. Lucas returned the gesture, resting his head on Yann’s shoulder.
When they pulled away Yann twitched his lips, looking to the side. “Speaking of no homo bro hugs—”
“Yann are you coming out to me?” Lucas interrupted, pretending to be scandalized.
Yann rolled his eyes, shoving Lucas’ shoulder. “Shut up. What I was going to say was, you need to talk to Arthur.”
“Why? What’s wrong?” Lucas asked immediately, heart speeding up. Arthur had been acting a bit oddly… Lucas really hoped nothing was wrong.
“Calm down, nothing’s wrong,” Yann continued, reading his mind, “I just think you guys should have an actual heart to heart.”
“You’re scaring me a bit Yann…”
“I swear!” Yann raised his arms again. “He just filled me in on the things going on in his life, and I figured you’d want to know too, but not from me.”
“Ok…” Lucas was still wary, he could sense Yann wasn’t telling him something, but he’d just have to accept it for now. He really should have a talk with Arthur anyway, even just to fill him in on everything going on in his life as well. “Ok,” he repeated, “I’ll talk to him this week.”
Yann nodded, then scooted off the bed. “Tell your lover he can stop hiding in his room now, but if he ever hurts you I will break his spine.”
“Noted,” Lucas said, smiling. Then, “By the way, how’s it going with Chloé?”
Yann laughed as if he couldn’t help himself. “Ha. That. Yeah, um, it’s not really ‘going’ so to speak anymore.”
Lucas lifted the water from his bedside table in mock salute. “I expected nothing less.”
“Shut up, Lallemant, you’re still on thin ice for not telling me you’ve been a part of some enemies to lovers fanfiction for weeks now.” Yann pointed at him, narrowing his eyes.
“Enemies to lovers fan— Are you serious right now?” Lucas laughed, doubling over.
Yann simply turned towards the door, calling over his shoulder. “You don’t know what I do in my free time. Although, come to think of it, which one of you would be Harry and which one would be Draco?”
“Yann!”
“Ok, ok, leaving for real now. Let me know when you decide, though, this is important data,” Yann yelled, making his way through their living room and out the door. Lucas flopped back down shaking his head fondly. Harry and Draco… Yann was something else, he really was.
Lucas was so out of it he didn’t even register when Eliott walked back into the room until he said, “Well, obviously, I’m Harry.”
“What? Are you kidding?” Lucas scoffed as Eliott settled back down beside him. “How am I Draco?”
Eliott shrugged. “You were the mean one.”
Lucas rolled his eyes. Fine, if that was how they were going to play it. “You were the one who pined from afar for years.”
“They both did that,” Eliott argued.
“Well you— and Draco— were the ones aware that they were pining.”
And so they went on like this, debating back and forth, hands twisting together idly, legs brushing not so accidentally, hearts filled to the brim with adoration, as was normal these days. It was a peaceful morning that led into a peaceful afternoon that led into a peaceful night and it was wonderful. Every minute of it.
Dimanche 19:07
Lucas was fully drained, mentally and emotionally. He’d spent the last seven hours with a clinical psychologist, working through what was going on and getting properly diagnosed, and now he was even more exhausted than after a full day of rehearsals. It had taken a while for him to feel comfortable, but once he began to open up, the words wouldn’t stop flowing and flowing until he’d practically told his entire life story. It was a lot, and all he wanted right now were cuddles from Eliott.
The moment he opened the door, he was greeted by Eliott’s grinning face standing behind the counter chopping something up. “Hey, Lu. I’m making dinner.”
Lucas appreciated that he didn’t ask how the session had gone. Lucas would tell him, but he needed a moment to process things on his own first. He made his way over to the counter, sitting at one of the stools and peeking at what Eliott was doing. “What are you making?”
Eliott’s face flushed bright red. “It’s a surprise?”
“A surprise?”
Eliott beckoned Lucas closer with his hand, waiting to speak until they were inches apart. “I have no idea what I’m doing,” Eliott whispered.
“Do you want help?” Lucas whispered back, stifling a giggle.
“No,” Eliott scoffed in mock indignation, pulling away. “Who knows, maybe this will be the best meal we’ve ever eaten. Maybe I’ll become a world famous chef, the new Remy.”
“Remy?” Lucas clarified.
“Yeah, the rat from Ratatouille.”
Lucas laughed. “Oh, I just thought his name was Ratatouille.”
This apparently, was the wrong thing to say, because Eliott dropped everything he was doing and stared at Lucas, mouth agape. Once he regained his composure, he sighed. “We have to break up.”
Lucas choked on a laugh, taken aback. “Excuse me?”
“You don’t respect the cinematic excellence that is Ratatouille enough to even remember the main character’s name. I don’t need that kind of negativity in my life.” He shooed Lucas with his hands, turning away dramatically. “Begone, thot!”
And, well, Lucas had never expected to hear those words from Eliott, so he did what any sensible person would do. He laughed so hard he quite literally fell from his chair.
“Shit!” he exclaimed, catching himself before he could really embarrass himself. Eliott ran to the opposite side of the counter, alarm in his eyes.
“Oh my god are you ok? I’m so so sorry, Lu, I’m so— are you laughing?” Eliott rambled upon seeing Lucas shaking on the ground. Lucas lifted his head and revealed not tears of pain, but tears of laughter. Eliott sank down onto the floor beside him, dropping his face into his hands, but his smile was unmistakable.
“Begone— thot—” Lucas gasped between laughs, wiping his eyes.
Eliott finally surrendered to his own laughter, shaking his head. “I don’t even know where that came from.”
It took a few more minutes for Lucas to finally catch his breath, but once he did, he clasped one of Eliott’s hands between both of his. “Thank you,” he said, radiating with warmth.
“I called you a thot,” Eliott reiterated.
Lucas nudged him with his shoulder. “That’s not what I’m talking about, dummy. Thank you for being you, for making me laugh after the day I just had.”
“Are we talking about it?” Eliott asked, and Lucas wondered the same thing himself. He kind of just wanted to get it all off his chest, even if a small part of him was screaming to hold it all in until he exploded.
Lucas settled on a nod, leaning back against the counter and pulling his knees up to his chest. Eliott did the same, the two of them sitting side by side and not looking at each other. It was easier saying these things when he didn’t have to look for every single reaction in Eliott’s expressive eyes.
“So, I guess I officially have an eating disorder,” Lucas began. He felt his heart start to beat a tad more rapidly and took a few deep breaths to steady himself. Eliott didn’t say anything, just listened, still holding his hand.
“Anorexia nervosa, technically,” he continued, biting his lip. “I, um, also apparently have generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, and deeply rooted emotional and physical trauma which manifests itself as PTSD. And abandonment issues. I’m quite the catch, I know.”
Eliott squeezed his hand. “Hey. None of that makes you less of a person, ok? Now that you know what to call it, you’ll have a better time learning how to push through it in a healthy way, right?”
“Yeah,” Lucas said in a small voice, focusing on a loose thread on his pants.
“Do you have to take any medications?” Eliott asked conversationally, as if they were talking about the weather.
Lucas nodded again. “They think that would be best, particularly for the OCD, mostly because I can’t go to therapy as often as they’d like given rehearsal schedules.”
“Hey that’s great!” Eliott exclaimed, and Lucas finally looked at him, confusion creasing his brows. “I have to take medication too, for, you know… now we can take them together or something. Help each other out. Obviously it won’t be easy for either of us, but I’m willing to try if you are.”
“That would be nice,” Lucas said, resting his head on Eliott’s shoulder. It most definitely would not be all rainbows and butterflies, and may be a source of argument from time to time, but Lucas thought it was what both of them needed at the moment to help them adjust to the changes in their lives.
“Minute by minute, baby,” Eliott said, leaning his head on top of Lucas’.
“Please don’t call me baby,” Lucas said, scrunching up his face even though he knew Eliott couldn’t see it. Had he told Eliott about his dislike of pet names yet or was this going to have to be a new conversation?
“Whatever you say, baby.”
“Eliott I swear—”
But he didn’t finish, and Eliott didn’t have time to answer, because a loud beeping noise interrupted both of their trains of thought. Their heads shot up, then their bodies when they realized the beeping was the smoke detector.
“You were making food,” Lucas remembered and Eliott nodded solemnly.
“I was making food.”
“Shit.”
They both went to work, waving away the smoke and turning off the stove, putting whatever Eliott’s concoction had been into the sink. Eliott was jumping up and down waving a dish towel to dissipate the smoke, and the sight was enough for Lucas’ panic to leave him and for laughter to take over once again. Eliott glared at him like Is now really the time?, but the corner of his mouth twitched nonetheless.
Lucas heard voices outside their door and looked through the peephole to see people walking past, muttering in confusion. “Shit,” he repeated, “I think we’re supposed to evacuate.”
“Even if we’re the source of the problem?” Eliott asked, still waving his dish towel.
“Especially if we’re the source of the problem, I think,” Lucas replied, reaching for the hoodie he’d strewn across the couch earlier. Actually, it was Eliott’s hoodie, but Lucas claimed it, so now it was his (at least until it stopped smelling like Eliott).
Eliott reluctantly put down the towel and followed Lucas out of the room, leaving the door ajar so the smoke had more room to escape. They found themselves caught in the throng of ballet students and grabbed each other’s hands instinctively, not remembering that what they had was supposed to be a secret. It didn’t matter anyway, no one was paying attention to them.
At least, they weren’t until Lucas and Eliott caught each other’s eyes over some of the younger student’s heads. Their lips wobbled, and Lucas bit the inside of his cheek, but it was useless. They broke back down into laughter, because of course they’d almost started a fire while they were having a deep and important conversation. And of course they’d had a deep and important conversation right after Eliott had called him a thot.
Once outside, Eliott and Lucas were still nearly pissing themselves laughing, not paying the slightest bit of attention to anyone or anything around them. They couldn’t stop, and everyone was looking at them like they were insane, though that could have partly been because it was Eliott and Lucas laughing together. No one had seen that since they were ten years old.
“What the fuck is going on here?” Emma asked, catching their attention. Right, other people existed.
“We may have set off the fire alarm,” Eliott explained biting his lip to try to stop his laughter. Lucas wasn’t quite there yet.
“We?” Daphné cut in, looking between the two of them utterly confused. Lucas caught Imane’s eye as he regained his composure, the knowing look, and he tried not to draw attention to it.
Sofiane caught the look though, probably because he was always looking at Imane, and his jaw dropped. “Wait a minute.”
Eliott looked at Sofiane in confusion, not having caught the exchange that had just gone down. Sofiane closed his mouth, then opened it, then closed it again. “Am I dreaming?” he asked finally.
“No,” Imane said, and Lucas glared at her.
He nearly groaned aloud when Manon came over to join all of them, along with Arthur, Ingrid, and Chloé. “What’s going on?” she asked warily, looking at Daphné for some sort of explanation. Daphné merely shrugged, eyes wide as she tried to figure out what was going on.
Ingrid looked at Manon and Daphné, then up at Lucas and Eliott. “They’re fucking,” she said simply, and practically every single person within earshot went wild.
“Funny joke—”
“Woah…”
“I knew it.”
“Lucas and Eliott? Never.”
“Finally.”
Lucas looked from person to person, mouth agape. Eliott looked a bit uncomfortable, kind of like he wanted to disappear, and Lucas went into defense mode. He glared at Ingrid, folding his arms across one another. “Really?”
She shrugged. “What? I share a wall with one of you, and you’re loud as fuck.”
Lucas didn’t think they were that loud, and besides, they’d only ‘fucked’ the way she was insinuating for the first time after their dance in the theatre. Sure, they’d probably done a few other… loud… activities, but it wasn’t like it was every night.
“That doesn’t mean it was Lucas and Eliott, though,” Daphné said, “It could have been one of them with someone else.”
“Well that would be super awkward, considering the two people in question were moaning the names ‘Eliott’ and ‘Lucas’,” Ingrid said matter of factly, and Lucas decided right then that he was going to kill her.
“But they hate each other,” Daphné said, looking to Manon for assistance. She wasn’t paying attention though, too focused on Lucas, on trying to read his face. He saw the moment she read all she needed to and was forced to accept the reality that Ingrid was telling the truth. Her jaw didn’t drop quite as Sofiane’s had, but it was enough that Daphné and Emma both gasped.
Yann winked at Lucas across the group of people, which was entirely unhelpful, but he supposed he had gotten himself into this situation in the first place. “We’re not fucking,” Lucas said adamantly.
Eliott met his eyes, raising his eyebrows in an equally unhelpful fashion, and Lucas sighed. “We’re not just fucking,” he amended, covering his face with his hands to avoid eye contact with anyone and everyone. He felt an arm slip around his shoulders and knew it was Eliott’s without having to look.
“We’re dating,” Eliott said simply, and if everyone’s reactions had been wild before, they were nothing compared to what they were now.
Manon’s face told him that she was going to chew him out for not telling her later, but also that she was happy for him if he was happy, and he appreciated it. He did feel bad for not telling her for so long.
Just as their friends began to ask questions, the director emerged, yelling to all the students. “This was a false fire alarm, you can all go back inside and about your business, we’ll have someone come in tomorrow morning to look into any faulty wires that could have tripped the alarm accidentally. I apologize for the inconvenience.”
His face said otherwise, but then again, he always looked like he’d just stepped in shit. At least no one had found out that Lucas and Eliott were the source of this trouble, especially given all the other trouble they’d caused recently.
Before their friends could even think to ask more questions or even focus their attention back on Eliott and Lucas, Eliott grabbed Lucas’ hand and took off with him back into the building, laughing all the while.
The charred remains of their dinner still sat in the sink, so they grabbed leftovers from the fridge before locking their door— and triple checking that it was actually locked— and resuming their positions leaned up against the counter on the floor.
They could explain everything in the morning.
Lundi 12:12
Surprisingly, most people had come to terms with Eliott and Lucas being a thing by the time classes started that morning. Maybe more of them had seen it coming than they were willing to admit, or maybe they were just waiting to ambush them until after class. Whatever the case, it gave Lucas opportunity to pull Arthur aside at the beginning of class to ask if he wanted to have lunch, just the two of them. He’d agreed, and now Lucas sat waiting at the cafe down the street, frowning at the time. Arthur wasn’t going to bail on him, was he?
But no, almost fifteen minutes past noon, Arthur strolled in, casual smile on his face. Lucas could tell it was forced, but he didn’t comment on it. He knew Arthur had been going through a lot lately.
“Hey Lulu,” Arthur said as he sat down, and Lucas found himself grinning at the nickname. Arthur was really the only person he ever let get away with calling him that. “What did you, um, want to talk about?” Arthur added, almost nervously.
Lucas didn’t really have an answer, because technically Yann was the one who told him to talk to Arthur. “I just wanted to check in, I guess. Make sure everything’s alright with you.”
“Oh.” The tension in Arthur’s shoulders deflated. “This is about what I told you and Yann last week?”
Lucas shrugged. “Kind of, I guess. We don’t have to talk about it, but I’m here if you want to.”
Arthur seemed to weigh this, folding his hands and unfolding them so many times it almost made Lucas dizzy. It was odd, Arthur was never usually nervous like this, especially not around Lucas. “Well. I’m getting emancipated, obviously. I don’t think you’ve ever met my mom but she’s— she’s something. It was never really about her, but she never did anything, either, so I guess it was about her, in a way.”
“I’m sorry, I just don’t understand,” Lucas said apologetically. He knew Arthur liked to speak vaguely, didn’t like to get too personal, but if they were having this conversation, Lucas needed to be able to follow it.
“Right. Sorry. Um, you know my mom was a ballerina, famous and whatever, that’s why I started ballet. When I was five she hired this special instructor, apparently she was really well known in the ballet world, I don’t know, I was five, but she also… got a little too involved in our rehearsals. I didn’t really even know what was happening, I was too young, so I didn’t say anything. I thought that’s what ballet teachers did. But then I got older, and she stayed under my mother’s employ, and I started to realize the things we did, that she was doing with me, they weren’t, like, normal, or right. That’s when I told my mom about it, but she didn’t believe me. She said I just wanted an excuse to slack off rehearsing. That was when I was twelve, and she was my mom, so I accepted her word and continued doing what I’d been doing my whole life.
“Then when I was fourteen it got… different. My instructor, she— let’s just say some things changed for the worse. At that point I couldn’t blow it off or pretend it wasn’t happening anymore. I hated her, I hated my mom, I hated myself most of all, so I stopped giving a shit. I blew off rehearsals all the time, a habit that I kept up here at school, even though this place was heaven compared to being at home, I started smoking weed a lot, I hooked up with a lot of people I probably shouldn’t have. People who thought I was older than I was, who were much older themselves, because I guess a masochistic part of me was used to it. Eliott, actually, was the only one who noticed. It’s no one’s fault for not noticing what I didn’t want them to notice, but when Eliott did notice, I finally let myself break.”
Arthur shut his eyes and clenched his fists on the table. Lucas realized he’d simply been staring open mouthed and schooled his expression into something more neutral. He and Arthur were more alike than they’d realized, apparently, and Eliott continued to be one of the greatest humans to ever grace the earth.
When Arthur opened his eyes, Lucas pretended not to notice the tears he was blinking away. “Obviously,” he continued, “Some old habits die hard. I still do things I shouldn't. I go out until dawn when I know I have rehearsals at eight, I don’t apply myself in class like I know I can because I don’t want personalized attention, I have unhealthy habits when it comes to relationships, but I tried to start over in little ways. I filed for emancipation at the beginning of last school year with Elliot’s help and I stayed with Alexia last summer, so that’s why we’re closer than we used to be. She was another lifesaver. No one of any importance believed me when I told them about what my instructor did, but at least they believed me when I told them that my mother was emotionally abusive and incredibly manipulative, and she put me into dangerous situations without care or conscience. She still tries to contact me sometimes, and I really don’t want to have to get a restraining order, but I found out that she and my old instructor apparently have been in a relationship for quite a few years and they never told me about it. I don’t even have the words to say how fucked up that is.”
“Fuck, Arthur, I’m so sorry,” Lucas said, unable to keep it in any longer. He wasn’t sure if Arthur was done or not, but he’d paused, and Lucas had used that as an opening.
Arthur just shrugged noncommittally. “You have nothing to be sorry for. That's life.”
“No one deserves that kind of a life,” Lucas said, because that was what he’d learned recently himself.
“I could say the same to you,” Arthur responded, and Lucas smiled sadly.
“I know, that’s why I’m telling you.” Arthur said nothing to that, just continued to look down at his hands. “Um, would it be ok if I gave you a hug?” Lucas asked, because in his opinion hugs made everything better.
Arthur’s head shot up and he shook his head fervently. “No, I don’t think that would be a good idea.”
Ouch, but ok. Maybe this was about Eliott? They hadn’t talked about that yet, just the two of them, maybe Arthur thought Eliott was the super jealous type or something. “Eliott won’t mind if I give one of my best friends a hug,” Lucas said slowly, and Arthur flushed bright red.
“That’s not what I meant, um, I just actually have something else I need to talk about with you.” Arthur’s hands were fidgeting again. “I… um, simply put, I think I’m in love with you?”
Lucas blinked, certain he’d misheard. There was no way… he and Arthur had always had this intimate dynamic together, but it was always platonic. That was his understanding of it at least.
“What?” he asked intelligently.
Arthur rubbed his eyes under his glasses, sighing deeply. “I’m kind of in love with you which is why I’ve kind of been avoiding you lately.”
“How long?” What the fuck else was he supposed to ask? To say? It was strange to think that if he and Eliott hadn’t gotten over their shit he might be with Arthur right now.
Arthur shrugged. “Around the time we went to that party Alexia invited us to. We were talking about getting married, and I was drunk, and I just had a fleeting feeling of wanting to kiss you. Then I realized the feeling wasn’t fleeting, and then I panicked.”
“Did you know I was with Eliott?”
“No.” Arthur shook his head. “I was as surprised as everyone else last night.”
“Then why didn’t you ever say anything? Why say something now?” Lucas asked, genuinely.
Arthur smirked, but there was no humor to it. “Because I can handle you rejecting me if you’re in love with someone else, but I don’t think I could have handled you rejecting me because you simply didn’t feel the same way.”
“I’m sorry,” Lucas said, because he didn’t want Arthur to feel like shit because Lucas didn’t love him like that.
Arthur looked away. “Don’t be. It’s not your fault, we don’t choose who we fall in love with. I’ll get over it, trust me. In the meantime I understand if you don’t want to be around me or whatever.”
Lucas scoffed, bringing Arthur’s gaze back to his. “Are you serious? Do you really think I would ever not want to be around you? Sure, I’m not in love with you, but that doesn’t mean I don’t love you with all my heart. You’re one of my favorite people in the entire world.”
“Lucas you don’t have to say that—”
“I know,” Lucas cut him off, “I want to. Because I mean it.”
Arthur began to grin, then. It was small, it was slow, but it was there. “We should probably get out of here, classes start up soon.”
Lucas checked his phone for the time and realized Arthur was right. It felt like no time had passed at all, he’d been too wrapped up in their conversation. Lucas looked at Arthur as they made their way to the door, mulling over a question.
“So what about me, specifically, turns you on?” Lucas asked jokingly as the two of them walked out of the cafe together.
“Shut the fuck up Lallemant, I swear,” Arthur warned, but he was finally laughing.
“My striking looks? My dazzling personality?”
Arthur rolled his eyes, walking a few steps ahead of Lucas. “Your ass,” he said, breaking into a jog before Lucas could register his words. Lucas stood dumbstruck for a moment, then came back into himself.
“Wait a minute, my— Arthur get back here! Were you serious? Arthur!”
Mardi 20:43
For the first time in a long time, Eliott and Lucas were working on Polaris together. Well, more accurately, Eliott was working on Polaris and Lucas was trying to distract him by playing rap songs on the piano.
“Duuude,” Eliott whined, “I can’t focus!”
“Did you just call me dude?” Lucas clarified with a laugh. “Dude-zoned by my own boyfriend. I can’t believe it.”
“Oh, shut up.”
“Make me.”
That was all it took for Eliott to drop his focus completely, on top of Lucas so quickly they nearly both fell off the piano bench for what wouldn’t be the first time. Eliott’s lips seared onto his, and Lucas tried and failed to hold back a moan as Eliott teased him, pulling away just enough that Lucas was struck by his absence. Eliott smiled at him, pulling him closer by the waist and sliding him across the bench so he ended up nearly on top of Eliott.
Lucas’ hands snaked around Eliott’s shoulders, a safe space (though Lucas would argue that everything about Eliott made him feel safe), a place for him to lose himself completely. Maybe it would have been frustrating that Eliott smiled into every kiss they shared causing their teeth to clang together if it wasn’t so endearing.
Eliott almost always had his hands on Lucas’ face when they kissed, like holding Lucas was the most important thing in the world. Lucas liked it, he liked it a lot. The security it brought and the way the heat of Eliott’s hands matched the heat on his face were a deadly combination, and Lucas reveled in it.
Nothing compared to the taste of Eliott, though. Granted, Lucas hadn’t kissed many people in his life, but Eliott’s taste was better than all of them combined, and then some. Sometimes Lucas wondered how he compared to Lucille, in Eliott’s eyes, but he would never ask. It didn’t matter if Eliott had loved Lucille’s taste as much as he loved Eliott’s, it was the two of them until the end of time now and no one would ever get in the way of it.
Through a series of events Lucas had little to no recollection of, too caught up in the heat of the moment, of Eliott, they ended up on the floor, heads aligned and their bodies pointing in opposite directions, gazing up at the fluorescent studio lights. Lucas was still breathing a bit heavily, unable to wipe the soft smile from his face. It was a comfortable silence, the kind that you can only share with a person you love deeply.
“You know, we never had our Elu Two-Man Swan Lake World Tour,” Eliott said, breaking that silence and turning his head to face Lucas.
“Shit, that’s right,” Lucas said, as if he’d ever forgotten about it. A stupid part of him had always hoped they’d be able to get over themselves by the time they were seventeen and make good on their childhood plans. Another thought occurred to him. “Oh, fuck you, you get to be Siegfried again.”
“You wanted to do the fouettes!” Eliott reminded him, and Lucas turned his head to face him as well.
“I’ve always wanted to dance with a Prince,” he conceded with a small shrug. In truth, he thought it might be a bit entertaining to play Odette in their mini reproduction of the show, mostly because he and Eliott would have to do a series of lifts and partnering that would probably have been impossible, roles reversed. Not that Lucas would ever admit that to Eliott.
“Saturday?” Eliott suggested. “We could invite our friends, now that none of this is a secret. Are they our friends now, or do your friends still have to pretend to hate me?”
Lucas cracked a smile, leaning over to shut Eliott up with a small peck on the lips. “Shut up.”
“Make me.”
Well, Lucas thought, challenge accepted.
Jeudi 18:45
Lucas and Eliott had just finished dinner when Manon texted and left Lucas in a state of utter confusion.
Manon: Lucas Lallemant if you don’t get your ass over to room 412 in two minutes I’ll never speak to you again
Lucas: ??? what the fuck ???
Manon: 120, 119, 118, 117, 116, 115…
Lucas: Yeesh I’m coming chill out bro
Manon: 114, 113, 112, 111, 110…
He shut his phone off before her countdown could fall any lower and begrudgingly removed himself from where he’d been tucked into Eliott’s side. Eliott whined and reached for him as he stood up, but Lucas just sighed and shook his head.
“I have to go to Manon’s room, for some reason,” he said, pouting.
“Do you want me to come with?” Eliott asked, but Lucas shook his head.
“No, she’s probably asking me to come because she’s mad I didn’t tell her about us,” he reasoned, leaning back over to run a hand through Eliott’s hair. Why was it always so soft, who allowed that?
Eliott hummed, leaning into his touch. “Don’t be gone too long, I miss you already.”
“Yeah, yeah, you big old sap,” Lucas teased, but his parting kiss said, I miss you too.
When Lucas knocked on Manon’s door she opened it with a stern expression. “You’re seventeen seconds late,” she said without preamble.
“Sorry?”
“Just come in,” she said, pulling him by the hand and shutting the door behind her.
Lucas shrank at the look in her eyes, wondering how much shit he’d have to hear about keeping his relationship a secret. She smacked him lightly on the shoulder, which was expected, and frowned. “You already know what I’m going to say.”
“I do,” he agreed, sitting on the couch. He didn’t know where Imane and Daphné were, maybe they were just hiding away in their rooms.
She sat beside him, raising her eyebrows for him to continue. “I’m sorry?” he tried, and she rolled her eyes.
He threw his hands up in exasperation. “I don’t know what to say! I am sorry I didn’t tell you sooner, we just didn’t want anyone to know.”
“Well, why not?” she asked, and he scoffed, because he was pretty sure she’d been doing the same thing.
“For the same reason I’m the only one who knows about you and Daphné,” he countered.
She furrowed her brows. “Everyone knows about Daphné and me.”
“What? Since when?”
“Well,” she thought about it, “Imane knows because she lives with us, I told Emma the day after I told you because I didn’t want her to feel like I didn’t trust her enough to tell her.” She paused to give him a pointed look. “Then we told everyone else two Saturdays ago, at the terminale brunch.”
The terminale brunch? Oh. Oh. That had been when he and Eliott had been at Eliott’s house. Now it made more sense as to why there was so much drama surrounding the absence. If they hadn’t had an event that morning, no one would have even known Lucas was gone, probably.
“I wasn’t at the terminale brunch,” he reminded her and she blinked, as if just realizing this.
“Oh, yeah.”
“Oh, yeah,” he repeated, and she shoved him.
Her face grew suspicious. “Where were you? You haven’t really told me anything in a long time, Lu.”
He felt guilty as he realized she was right. They hadn’t talked about anything serious since she’d told him about her and Daphné, and he certainly hadn’t volunteered up any information about his own struggle. Everyone knew that he and Eliott were splitting shows, but no one other than them knew why. Manon probably didn’t even know he’d almost been kicked out, he realized with a jolt.
So, he started talking, spilling everything that had happened since the beginning of the year that he’d kept her in the dark about. He tried not to look at her face while he spoke, not wanting to see any of the disappointment or pity that was surely etched there. After a while, she took his hand, but he didn’t stop talking, even when his voice wobbled and he tried to blink tears from his eyes.
It wasn’t all bad, though. Lucas heard her laugh when he told her about his first kiss with Eliott, and he couldn’t help but smile as well. He’d almost slipped up and revealed that he and Eliott had been hiding in a closet when she and Daphné had their first kiss, but he figured he could save that story for years down the road.
“That’s all, I suppose,” he finished, just after he told her about the Elu Two-Man Swan Lake World Tour. He was still too nervous to look her in the eyes, but it turned out he didn’t have to. She simply grabbed him by the shoulders and pulled him into her, engulfing him in what might have been the world's tightest hug.
“Don’t ever go through something like that again without telling me,” she whispered, pressing her cheek to his shoulder.
He squeezed her even more tightly in response. “Yann said practically the same thing.”
“Good.” She pulled away, looking him in the eyes. “We’ll form a Lucas Lallemant defense brigade.”
“That’s entirely unnecessary.”
“You don’t get a say in this.”
“Mmmm… pretty sure I do—”
He was cut off by the door opening, and he and Manon both turned to see who it was. Lucas smiled as Imane walked in, eyes narrowed. “What’s going on here?” she asked, setting down her dance bag.
“We’re starting a Lucas Lallemant defense brigade,” Manon explained, and Lucas glared at her.
“We are not doing that,” he attempted to interject, but Imane wasn’t listening.
She sat down on the couch on the other side of Lucas. “Oh, thank god we’re making it official. I was all alone before.”
Manon raised her eyebrows. “Excuse me, but I’ve been manning the helm of the S.S. Lallemant longer than you.”
“Ladies, ladies, no need to fight over me,” Lucas said, mostly to get them off the topic of a Lucas Lallemant defense brigade. “Besides,” he continued, “Yann has both of you beat.”
Manon and Imane exchanged a glance, shrugging. “That’s fair,” Manon conceded, leaning her head back on his shoulder. Lucas and Manon both looked at Imane, beckoning her to join their cuddle.
“You know you want to,” Lucas said, wiggling his eyebrows.
“Whatever would Eliott say?” Imane asked with a fake gasp.
Lucas grinned. “He’d just be jealous we had a group hug without him.”
Imane rolled her eyes, but she put her head on Lucas’ other shoulder. “I don’t think I’ll ever be used to you talking about him like you don’t want to set him on fire.”
“I never wanted to set Eliott on fire.” First Yann, now Imane. When had he ever said anything like that? He was fairly confident his hatred had remained subtle. Even if perhaps he did say anything of the sort, it’s not like he ever actually would have set Eliott on fire for christ’s sake. Eliott was a bit like fire himself, could a bit intimidating from afar but gets warmer and warmer the closer you get to him. He was also a radiant light shining in any kind of darkness.
“You should be used to it by now,” Lucas continued, drawing back from his own thoughts.
“It’s been less than a week, I’m nowhere near used to it yet either,” Manon laughed, and Lucas turned sharply, meeting Imane’s eyes.
She frowned, not seeing what he was trying to communicate. “Maybe for you…”
“Wait a minute.” Manon sat up. “Did you tell her before you told me?”
Lucas glared at Imane as she finally realized what he’d been trying to convey with his eyes. “In my defense I was having a panic attack,” he added, hoping Manon wouldn’t be too mad.
“Shush,” she cut him off, narrowing her eyes at Imane. Imane just stared back, which was one of the many things he loved about her. Then, seemingly out of nowhere, Manon burst out laughing.
“What the fuck!” she gasped through her laughter.
“What the fuck?” Lucas mouthed to Imane, who just shrugged.
“I told Imane before you too,” Manon said at last, her giggles subsiding. “I just didn’t tell you that because I felt bad.”
Lucas gasped. “Et tu brute?”
“That doesn’t work in this context, no one else betrayed you,” Manon pointed out, “Not that either of us betrayed each other, I guess.” She sighed, resigned. “Looks like Imane is the leader of the LLDB then.”
“LLDB?”
“Lucas Lallemant Defense Brigade,” Imane filled in and Lucas groaned, leaning back onto the couch further.
“Forget I said anything!”
The two of them fell back with him, attacking him with more hugs. He felt so light, and he honestly hadn’t known it was possible to feel this light. As good as he felt with Eliott, there had been something missing, and it was honest and open communication with his best friends. Now that he and Yann, Arthur, Manon, and Imane were on the same page about everything, the colors in the world seemed much more saturated.
As the three of them sat there in one big pile Manon brushed a hand through his hair smiling up at him. “I know you’ve been through a lot, but you really look happy now, Lu, the kind of happy that comes from so deep inside that you can’t stop it.”
It was true. Eliott was the poetic one, he could have spun the feeling into a beautiful metaphor or a life changing quote, but Lucas preferred to keep it simple. He wasn’t healed, but he was healing, and he was happy.
Samedi 18:58
Their friends were absolutely ridiculous. Lucas had accidentally slipped and revealed his childhood plans turned reality to Manon the night before and she had, in turn, spilled them to everyone in their year. So now, their two man show was an actual show, and not an excuse for them to escape and make out for inordinate amounts of time. And now their whole year was in the audience with signs and cheers and cake for some reason.
“I don’t know all of Odette’s parts, what was I thinking?” Lucas was not so silently freaking out in the wings of their in house auditorium while Eliott watched him with amusement. Lucas stuck his tongue out at Eliott. “You’re not helping!”
“Did you just stick your tongue out at me?” Eliott asked, failing to conceal a laugh.
Lucas simply made a noise that resembled that of a dying cat. Eliott’s smile grew smaller as he walked over to Lucas, cupping his face in his hands. Lucas sank into the embrace immediately, placing his own hands over Eliott’s wrists.
“We don’t have to do this if you don’t want to,” Eliott said softly, melodically. “I’m perfectly fine with hiding in our room for the rest of the night. I would offer to make food, but we can just order something, I don’t want to burn the building down.”
Lucas took a deep breath and shook his head. “No. I want to do this, I just… it’s hard to let go of being perfect, even if we’re literally just making a mockery of Swan Lake.”
“Who said anything about making a mockery of it? I intend to be the most dazzling Prince you’ve ever seen!” Eliott said, grin encompassing his whole face.
“Eli, I’m serious. I know you’ll be amazing at whatever you do, but it’s hard for me to just… let go. This isn’t a role I’ve trained for, we’ve never actually partnered seriously together, and even though it’s just our friends out there, what if they don’t like it?” Voicing his insecurities was a new thing for him, but he was trying.
“Lu.” Lucas closed his eyes as Eliott leaned all the way in, connecting them further, everywhere but their lips. “You trust me, right?”
Lucas nodded, eyes still shut. He could hear Eliott’s comforting smile. “Good, because I promise you, we’ll both be so perfectly imperfect that it won’t even matter if we get any moves wrong. It’s you and me, now and forever. We may look like idiots, but who cares? What’s love without being idiots together? Besides, when else are we going to get to do this? This might be the last time we get to dance for fun, no expectations attached. Do you really want to miss out on that?”
Lucas didn’t. He wanted, more than anything, to dance for himself. He opened his eyes. “Ok. I’m ready.”
“Yeah?”
“Yeah.”
“Then let’s do this.”
Eliott separated them from one another, but not before stealing a kiss. Lucas’ face flushed with the feeling it brought as Eliott grabbed his hand and led him onto the stage.
The stage lights were so bright he could barely see his friends out in the crowd, but he could hear them, whooping and yelling and whistling. Against his wishes, it brought a smile to his face, and when the music started, he just let go.
***
Was he supposed to laugh through the entire performance of Swan Lake? Probably not, but he also wasn’t supposed to play the role of Odette, if that’s even what he was doing. And he also most definitely wasn’t supposed to pause after every partnering interaction to give his boyfriend a kiss, but he preferred this version of the show to the original.
Eliott had shouted out from the wings as Lucas did his thirty-two fouettes, executed to near perfection. He almost wished the director was in there just so he could rub his talent in his face. The finale came too soon, but with it came cheers from everyone in their year, and laughs as Eliott invited them all on stage and played a trap remix of the Swan Lake melody.
Yann came over and spun Lucas with one hand, Arthur with the other, Lucas and Arthur catching each other’s eyes with a knowing glint. Lucas winked, and Arthur rolled his eyes, but he smiled, and they embraced one another, laughing hard enough they couldn’t feel anything but joy.
“No homo,” Arthur whispered into his ear, and Lucas hugged him tighter, loving Arthur more than he could put into words.
Sofiane and Eliott were laughing with one another, Imane standing just out of the way, smiling as she gazed at them. Well, Sofiane, mostly. Lucas would be sure to give her shit for it later.
Daphné snaked behind him, pressing something into his hand and before disappearing with the raise of one eyebrow. He looked down and saw a can of blue silly string, something that immediately transported him back to being seven years old, running around Eliott’s backyard and spraying each other with wild glee.
Eliott’s eyes found him through the throng of people and they smiled, sharing this memory from across the room. Eliott shook his own can in challenge, and Lucas grinned wider, shaking his own can before releasing a long stream in Eliott’s direction.
Shrieks sounded from all over as everyone began spraying each other, using each other as shields, dancing as the silly string fell down onto them. So many colors mixed in the air and on the stage and everyone kept adding more and more until there was an entire rainbow surrounding everyone from all sides.
Lucas lost sight of Eliott and was about to go looking for him when yellow shot through his vision. He scoffed in outrage and turned to see Eliott grinning mischievously and holding his can in triumph. Well, that just wouldn’t do.
Lucas sprayed him back, running and following him around the stage, each of them nearly slipping and falling on the string spread about the stage. Eliott turned around at the last second, probably hoping for a surprise attack, and they both sprayed each other at the same time, yellow and blue meeting in the middle like either end of an eternal flame.
He probably looked like a disaster, he could feel all the silly string coating his body, his face, his hair, but Eliott didn’t seem to care. Eliott looked at him like Lucas was all he’d ever wanted. It was still surreal, to be looked at that way, but it was a look he loved, one that he hoped he reciprocated every time he looked Eliott’s way.
Lucas stepped closer to him slowly, and placed a hand on his cheek, silly string falling from his hair as Eliott leaned into his hand.
“I like yellow on you,” Eliott said, gesturing to where he’d sprayed his string all over Lucas.
“Thanks,” Lucas said, “But I think it suits you better than me.”
Eliott pulled back from Lucas’ hand, cocking his head. “Oh yeah? Why’s that?”
“Because, Eliott Demaury,” Lucas said, pulling Eliott’s face to his, lifting up on relevé to make their heights more level. “You are the sun in its purest form.”
Eliott’s answering smile just before he pulled Lucas into the world’s most colorful kiss proved just that. Eliott was a light that would never go out. They both were.
And they were happy.

Can you please do a BoRhap Pirates! AU? Oh my god them as swashbuckling fiends of the sea (who are actually just huge sweethearts?) YES PLEASE!! ❤️
Yes!! I love this idea, idk if I did this justice but here goes:
"Arg, there be's some booty we're searching for!" Joe tossed his foot onto the side of the boat, peering out towards the horizon.
"Joe, for the last time, we're pirates, but you don't have to speak like that." Gwilym took off his glasses to look at his friend. Joe turned with an exaggerated frown.
"But I'm in character! It makes it more fun." It was fun for Joe, but starting off every sentence with Arg was a little annoying.
Gwilym expressed that. "Mate, its just plain annoying sometimes." He meant all the time, but he didn't want to nag too much.
"Ben!" Joe called for back up but Ben shook his head.
"You're on your own with this one." Ben's response earned a groan from Joe but before he could start complaining Rami yelled to them.
"Guys! Land! I see land!" The boys had set sail about three days ago. They knew they weren't in a big ocean, but they were sailing long enough to be hungry.
The boys scurried to row the boat faster. Once close enough, Joe hopped out to anchor and tie the boat down. Then, the four split up.
Rami went to the food place, Gwilym was assigned to supplies, Ben was on first aid needs, and Joe went to get weapons. They rarely needed the weapons, it was mainly to make them look intimidating in case any conflict came about.
Rami knew how to sweet talk anyone. He always latched onto the first woman that looked at him a little too long. This time it was a sweet looking young lady who smiled as soon as she saw him. So Rami fixed himself up and sauntered over.
"Hi there, do you think you could show me your," Rami paused to let his eyes roam over the woman, "sweetest bread." He knew he had her when all she could respond with was a giggle. She led him towards the back where Rami laid the moves on her. She was filling a massive basket with fruits, bread, fish, you name it. All while thinking Rami was going to take her away from this small village on his boat.
Meanwhile Gwilym was educating a local craftsman on his merchandise. Lots of random facts about buoyancy, floating, water, anything to keep the man distracted. He was so intelligent, who wouldn't believe him when he said that the products needed to be test properly to assure customer satisfaction? Gwilym always carried this little trinket that he would give in exchange for such supplies. Loads and loads of sails, life jackets, and flare guns, in exchange for something he feined to have importance to him.
As usual, it worked, and Gwilyn was the first one back to the boat. Rami came soon after, introducing his friend to the maiden, but not yet letting her on the boat. They had to wait on the other two.
Ben rushed into a medical tent gripping his arm. A man rushed to him and at the slightest touch he screamed in pain.
"Its broken!" Ben yelled, and the man nodded. Whomever he was he moved quick, he had Ben in a sling in no time. Ben said he was a soldier, so he had no money, but the man didn't believe that.
Not until Joe came swinging into the tent with his sword calling for his soldier. Everyone there was convinced then and filled the duo's arms with everything they could. Ben and Joe rushed back to the boat.
Happily, Rami gave the maiden a kiss. "My love, I can't take you. The seas are just to dangerous for a delicate flower like you." She began to stammer and wanted to know why.
Rami had already climbed aboard the boat, so Joe was the one to answer.
" 'Cause we be a bunch of pirates!" With that he cut the rope holding the boat still and they all pushed back into the water.
Another sucessful trip.
