"A enemies to lovers"
Gyutaro Shabana x fem reader.
Fandom: Demon Salyer.
Word count: +1.8K
Rating: fighting, insults, fluff, anguish, enemies, harsh words.
N/A: I'm back, bitches. This last month I've been with final exams and couldn't find motivation to write. So last night I sat down and decided to write an enemies to lovers with Gyutaro, since I saw that the last post had been well liked. Enjoy reading, sorry for the hurtful words, but in this story the two of them hate each other… or not.
THE BOY IS A MONSTEERRRR
The room was dark. School supplies were cluttered all over the space, which was already cramped. Balls, tennis racquets, strings, mats, etc. Everything smelled like gym equipment, covered with the typical layer of dust that was hardly cleaned unless the equipment was being used.
Both of your breaths were labored, breathing hard due to the little air left inside along with the dense layer of dirt. You were angry at the stupid situation you were in.
"You shouldn't have come, it was me who was tasked to go get the mats." he growls in a serious tone, almost sounding like a dog facing his opponent.
"I've already told you a thousand times, he sent me to help you too, the mats are heavy…". you retort.
"I don't need your help, I am much stronger than you".
"You're an idiot if you think a woman can't fend for herself, Gyutaro."
"The idiot is you if you thought you were going to help me with those weak arms." His breath hits your face. It wasn't unpleasant to you, despite his hideous appearance. It smelled like a mixture of mint and body odor.
You shake your head shaking your thoughts away. My goodness, you disliked him for over two grades. He was so cruel and mean to the other students and envious through and through. He was always complaining about those who were better than him, especially in sports.
"Oh my god, you're unbearable, you know that?". You don't know what to respond and the only thing you can think to do is try to vent your anger by making him feel bad. Even though that really wasn't what you wanted, but you couldn't help it.
"Unbearable is your stupid voice and to top it off the door was locked with the keys out because of you, you clumsy girl." He had snuggled closer to you. Although the room wasn't very well lit, because the light wasn't working either, you could see his face with the small solar halo coming in through the small square window located above the wall where Gyutaro was.
His hands had reached your arms to shake you helplessly for the situation. You wince as he digs his fingers in that it almost hurts and you let out a whimper, trying to pull away from him.
"Let go of me, you brute." You fight back, trying to wiggle out of his grip. "I hadn't even seen the keys." When you had entered the materials room you didn't notice that the keys were in the lock, so you assumed that the trainer had already opened the door and that he had them hanging around his neck, as usual.
"Oh, of course. Because the girl is so dumb that even at that she's not able to figure it out." His comments were starting to hurt and tears were beginning to sting the edges of your eyes. You were not going to allow yourself to sink with his hurtful words. If he could insult you with no regard for your feelings, of course you would too. You hated him.
"You are inconsiderate, sarcastic and unbearable." You scream and press the palm of your hands on his hard chest to push him away from your body. "If you were in a different mood maybe we'd be out of here by now." You press your nails into his shirt and manage to rip a button off. He grunts and squeezes you tighter in his grip. Your arms hurt too much. It might even leave a mark on you.
"I didn't need your help!" He yells and shakes you.
"Fuck, Gyutaro, this isn't about help!".
"Then why do you always show up everywhere I go?". His question left you unsettled, blank. In fact, you also had the same feeling of running into him, in the hallways, at the lockers, when sometimes you were late because you overslept, in fights you were always around or even when he was expelled from class for confronting some teacher, you would show up by the punishment room to put some papers.
"What… What? For God's sake, I'm the deputy. It's normal for me to be doing… delegate stuff." You weren't crazy and you weren't chasing him, it's just a coincidence. right?
He laughs in a low, vile tone, not believing anything you say. "And it's also a coincidence that we're here right now?".
Your cheeks were starting to heat up from anger. "Honestly, I'd rather die than be locked in the same room as you." You spit out in a stern tone.
Gyutaro responds with a laugh too unpleasant for you "Dare to say that again and again and I'll break you". The glint of malice could be seen in his gaze. His teeth chattered with every word and his jaw tensed, you almost thought he might snap his teeth from the strain. His grip and his voice were harder and harder.
"Fuck you." You grab his shirt and try to shake him too.
"Oh, I'm flattered, but no thanks." You take a few steps forward and out of sense take a few steps back. You don't want him to touch you. You can't stand it. His touch feels rough and horrid to you. Cold and hard. Painful and… Fuck, stop thinking about it.
"I hate you, I hate you. I can't stand you and you think I'd be after you? Jesus Christ, you wouldn't believe that yourself. From the moment I saw you I couldn't stand you." Gyutaro is silent for a few moments, seconds in which a silent emptiness takes over the room, which, seconds before, had been filled with screams and voices, insults and confessions too painful and cruel to be able to say them to another person.
Seconds in which your body is pushed forcefully backwards. The air leaves your lungs abruptly and gravity takes hold of your body pulling you down. Your back crashes heavily against the mattresses and you feel a large, angry body looming over you. The vibes shook your skin and it bristled at the numerous sensations you were experiencing, fear, terror… But you were not going to show weakness before him. No way, he couldn't see you crying or in a vulnerable state.
Your breaths were agitated, loaded with words that wanted to leave your mouths to hurt again. Hands and legs move, squeeze, and you try to pull away. You sit up, but he places his palm on your chest and sinks you back down to the mattresses. You claw at his arms and groan, trying to overcome his enormous strength. He grunts gutturally and tries to grab your hands again. When he finally succeeds, he spreads your legs apart with his knees and stands over you, his bony pelvis now between your thighs, preventing you from closing your legs or kicking him. You gasp and grunt, arch your back, but nothing, you can't free yourself from him. From his prison. God…you were almost sure you'd never get out of there.
"I hate you you know." Desperate you attack him again with the only thing you have left.
"I know." He replies in a dry tone and smiles showing his menacing teeth.
"I hate your smile."
"I know." He repeats. His face moves closer to yours. Her hair, always messy, now falls around your face, forming a curtain between the two of you.
"And your face, you're so…you're so obnoxious." Your nose brushes against his, his breath hits your mouth and cheeks. If you could sink even deeper into the mattress you would have made it by now.
His weight on your body burned you more and more. "And I can't…I can't….". Your eyes widen as you feel his lips rest on yours. You don't know it at the time, as the darkness prevented you from seeing, but his eyes looked into yours with a glow…an unexplainable glow. His dry, chapped lips encircled yours in a chaste kiss.
Your breath catches and you let out a soft sigh, half-opening your lips. Gyutaro pulls away just an unbearable millimeter and you already feel the cold from the absence of warmth. In an uncontrollable impulse you sit up and kiss him back. You suck in a breath of air and crash your lips against his. Gyutaro grunts in an attempt to control himself and crushes you back against the mat without separating from you, without breaking the kiss again. His mouth opens and he sticks out his tongue to open your wet lips which you open, inviting him in. Your tongues meet, slippery with saliva. Oxygen is depleted as your kiss becomes more intense. Now it has become a war to see which tongue can dominate the other. Your mouths open in a kiss. His breath caresses your right cheek and you tilt your head so you can get more of him.
His hand held the back of your neck. Since when did his hand hold the back of your neck? His thick, calloused fingers curl and pull at it. Your body arches and his body hovers more over you, the mats supporting the weight of both of you. Gyutaro grunts and begins to eat from your mouth as if it were the last meal on earth. You follow his rhythm and you both create a dance, in which your mouths devour each other with anger, rage, hatred and uncontrolled passion. His teeth sting and graze your lower lip. From time to time he gently bites your tongue and curses, in words that crash over your lips, incomprehensible confessions.
You feel and hear Gyutaro's nails digging into the mat and breaking it as he clenches his fists. Your hands now embrace his neck and you pull at his hair, causing him to growl. At an indeterminate point, you become dizzy and can almost feel his pelvis shift between your thighs, searching for something to relieve himself with.
However, the crazy magic of that crazy kiss is interrupted by the jingling of keys and a male voice shouting, "Is someone inside, the door is locked, hello!". Everything falls apart when Gyutaro abruptly pulls away from your body and growls. His weight, his touch, his breathing, his hands…everything is now cold to you. Your mind gradually comes to its senses and you awaken your mind cold again, assessing the matter. You are still there, lying on the mats, trying to calm your breathing and organize the bomb of events in your head.
"Shit…" Gyutaro curses and turns his back on you. Before he leaves he gives you one last look showing his teeth and walks away, leaving his scent, his trail. You hear the professor hurling questions at Gyutaro who ignores him completely, until you stop hearing his footsteps. Your hands rise by inertia to your red, swollen lips and you again hear footsteps running into the material shed.
"T/n, are you okay?" Mitsuri's soft voice sounds concerned, but you don't manage to hear it. Not after what's happened.
"I… I hate him…". You whisper still feeling the trail of Gyutaro's kiss on your mouth.

The Dark Suburb
((Posting again because the original post on June 11th, 2017 6:09pm is no longer available due to me deleting and re-making this blog.))

in a tiny white house in florida, sitting on a beer-can-covered counter, legs spread apart, a boy between them
in a drug-induced haze i left home for his semi truck
he never fucked me without his ski mask on
a girl and a girl and claw marks on the door“don’t ever take me back”
The Occult
the incantation that annihilated a whole suburb
a body that drags other bodies into an oven
the witches gathering in the red lake
inhuman sacrifice
dogs gathered at the edge of town refusing to cross the boundary to the outside
a 10 year old girl with memories of a serial killing spree that occurred when her parents were children
white shirts hanging on branches all over the woods
the town of three-eyed children
arrows raining down on a soccer field
feeding time
mysterious scratch marks on your back
a fairy ring in the field where your sister disappeared
Crimes
just throw it in the back

an imperial bedroom and all one feels is the weight of all that empty space
“even my funeral has to be luxurious”
Hometown Visions
three dead owls on the side of the road
trees bare, houses barren
lanterns lit up on the dirt road at night
moths in a forgotten shed

seeing half your face in a splintered mirror. washing machine making dangerous sounds
midwest: watching a tornado funnel form from a window that won’t shut all the way
grass in the yard growing tall
girls carrying stray cats home
a cellar door swinging open and a man you never wanted to see ever again stepping through it, into the light

bat-filled house at the end of the street
a girl crawling out of a burning car
birds in jars
Hide & Seek
not being able to find anyone in a dark forest because they actually left you and it was just a cruel prank
person seeking you is something much worse than what you thought they were
being trapped in your hiding space & no one can find you no matter how loud you call for help
hiding in your friend’s house and finding evidence of a vile crime their parents committed
finding half of your friend

Manga I Read on the Reg
This is just a collection of manga I read regularly whenever they come out.
1. Boku no Hero Academia
Most of you know what this is. In a world where 80% of the population has these special abilities called “quirks”, our main character is part of the 20% that doesn’t have a quirk. The problem is, Midoriya Izuku, hero fanboy and enthusiast, has desperately wanted to be a hero since childhood. Without a quirk, Midoriya is discriminated enough as it is and everyone around him is telling him he can’t become a hero. But Midoriya refuses to give up and prepares for his future in order to become a hero. As high school entrance exams draw near, Midoriya is losing hope but in one miraculous encounter with Japan’s Number 1 hero, Midoriya is given an opportunity to obtain a quirk and pursue his dream to become a hero.
I’m going to be honest. When I first started to hear about Boku no Hero Academia, I avoided it. I was already in too many fandoms and decided that with all that I had to do in my life: it wasn’t worth it. I pushed it away for later or potentially never. The most I did was click on a couple clips advertising BNHA and decided from those short clips that I despised Bakugou Katsuki. He was the classic bully character that I didn’t need reminders of. He’s the type of person I hate most in the world. I weighed the ethics and morality of this fantasy world way too heavily and moved on. Then, one day, having broken my ankle and forced to stay off it; I decided to read the Boku no Hero Academia manga in it’s entirety in one sitting. Since then I haven’t missed a new release. I think the reason I was so attracted to this series was how much it made me think of Katekyo Hitman Reborn which is one of my favorite franchises. I wanted to see more of a nervous and unsure main character despite being a badass and Boku no Hero Academia has certainly given me that.
This has an anime up to season 3 and a movie. Season 4 and a second movie has also been announced!
2. Haikyuu!!
One of the only sports manga! Haikyuu follows Hinata Shouyo, a short teenage boy entering his first year of high school aspiring to be the volleyball team’s ace despite almost never competing before, and Kageyama Tobio, a genius setter who has previously been abandoned by his teammates. Now, it’s not exactly that cut and dried. Hinata, despite being a nervous wreck and an idiot at times, along with practically being a beginner at playing volleyball with a real team, has incredible athletic ability. The only thing he can really do is jump and at the beginning of his high school career he takes to spiking with his eyes closed. Kageyama is a genius with a terrible personality. His insecurities after being abandoned make him standoffish to nearly everyone, but he always pulls through when aiming his set exactly to where Hinata will hit it. The team they join are full of fun and vibrant characters that have the title of the fallen crows because their school’s team has “fallen from glory”. It’s a typical sports manga with lovable characters and interesting relationships.
I also avoided reading Haikyuu when my friends started talking about it. I had already invested so much time into reading The Prince of Tennis and I didn’t want to get sucked into another fandom. I caved of course. The characters just seemed so fresh and new to me. It was less about the volleyball and more about how the characters interacted with each other. I actually started reading Haikyuu because of two videos on youtube that I believe no longer exist. The first was a compilation of each jump serve layered on top of each other and for each second the character serving would change and it was like art. The second was a compilation of Iwaizumi and Oikawa bickering. That really sold me.
This manga has an anime up to season 3! Season 4 has also been announced!
3. Akatsuki no Yona
God I love her. Akatsuki no Yona follows the sheltered princess of the Kyouka Kingdom, Yona. Yona has lived her entire life within the gates of Hiryuu Castle with her cousin Su-won, her bodyguard Hak, and her father: the King. All Yona wants in her future is to marry Su-won, despite her father’s insistence that she will not. The night of her 16th birthday, however, she discovers Su-won over her father’s body, pulling a sword out of his corpse. She escapes the castle with Hak and after gathering herself after her father’s death and cousin’s betrayal she visits a priest that tells her to find the four legendary dragon warriors. Kyouka has a legend, in which the first king was a red dragon in human form and was accompanied with four warriors with his dragon brothers’ blood. Yona, with the priest believing she is the reincarnation of the red dragon, sets off with Hak and the priest’s companion to find the dragon warriors.
I was hooked on Yona the moment it came out. I watched the anime like five times and when I realize there wouldn’t be a second season I read the manga. I’ve said this before in another post but Yona isn’t just a shoujo manga. The main character is a strong inspirational female character trying her best to fix the country that declared her dead. The romance is sweet but also awfully comedic. The fight scenes and the dramatic scenes are intense and draw you in. But just like any other manga, it’s the characters and the relationships that drew me in. Besides Hak and Yona’s thing they’re avoiding talking about; everyone else acts like siblings just trying to stay together the best they can and help anyone they can along the way. The dragon dynamic is hilarious, the backstories are sad, the romance is soft, and the bishounen is a genius.
This manga has one anime season!
4. Yakusoko no Neverland
The ultimate mind fuck. The orphans at the Grace Field House live peaceful lives with each other and their beloved Mama. It’s one big happy family. They spend the days like any other family would; breakfast, mind-wracking tests, tag, dinner, and rinse and repeat. But even to the children, somethings seem strange. They’re never allowed to venture beyond the gate that surrounds them like a ring in the forest around the house. By the time they reach the age 12, they have to leave their little house. The children that have left never write to them, despite promising they would. The story follows main characters Ray, Norman, and Emma as they find out the secret behind their little house and try to somehow change their pitiful fate.
So, this is another manga I decided to read in one day. A friend and I decided that since the anime would be coming out soon we would read the manga together in one go. Needless to say we were nearly dead after reading through all of it. So much happens in this that you’re like “what just happened” despite having just read it. You literally have to expect the unexpected when it comes to Neverland. This series would be ruined if I said anymore but the fact that these children can go through that and still smile and have hope despite the odds against them makes my heart warm.
This manga has an anime that is currently airing!
5. The Rising of the Shield Hero
The one that makes you angry almost immediately. According to legend, the holders of the four heavenly weapons are the heroes that will save Melromarc from the calamity that come in waves to the world. Iwatani Naofumi is just a normal university student when he picks up a book that transports him to another world. It’s entirely by bad luck that he’s given the role of the disregarded Shield Hero who can only wield shields and is ultimately useless offensively in battle. What’s even worse is that the companion who joined him at the start of his journey accused him of raping her and he’s been scorned by the kingdom and all its inhabitants since. The world seems so dark and Naofumi doesn’t want anything to do with the other heroes and incoming waves of calamity. The light in his life returns when he enslaves a sickly and depressed demi-human to fight for him. Raphtalia soon finds her master isn’t scary or cruel and becomes determined to make sure no one will suffer as she once did as a child while making sure Naofumi knows he is loved and appreciated by at least one person.
God when I first read this I was so mad. Naofumi didn’t deserve any of this, especially when the arrogant king summoned him to fight a battle he had nothing to do with. The same friend introduced Shield-bro to me and practically begged I read it. Yes we call it Shield-bro, it’s a thing. Look up Shield-bro on google and this will come out. It’s just a different sort of isekai where instead of being the hero that’s being praised - you get a real person getting accused of a real crime he didn’t commit. He’s been handed the short end of the stick just for being the Shield Hero no one appreciates. He’s literally the underdog in everything. You just want to root for Naofumi. It’s a really good stress reliever.

6. Isekai Omotenashi Gohan
This one is so softtttt. Our main character and her little sister gets their literal house transported to a different world. Oh and their dog comes too! Their Japanese home is transported in front of a luxurious foreign-looking castle in which people greet Akane and her little sister, Hiyori, claiming to have summoned the priestess that will save their world from the miasma. Hiyori is delighted and starts her training as the priestess, but Akane has nothing to do as a normal office worker and their home’s homemaker in this new world. After spending a month feeling useless, Hiyori comes to plead her sister for her cooking - starting Akane’s adventure in cooking classic Japanese staples that somehow attracts the attention of the Knight Commander of the Chivalric Order, the King, the kingdom’s princesses and much more. That is, of course, while teaching her knight guard Jade how to cook as well.
This isn’t very long and updates rarely but it’s so cute. All the antics are just so cute. The food is amazing and it’s just a story about how food brings everyone together. It’s masterful and done well. But it’s also not just a cooking story. Akane and Hiyori both struggle with Hiyori being the world’s priestess and her encountering danger. The sisterly bond is great in this one.
7. Koushaku Reijou no Tashinami
If you can’t tell I’m really into Isekai. This manga follows another regular office worker, but she’s really into otome games. Our main character dies from a car crash and when she wakes up she is in the footsteps of the villainess, Iris Lana Armelia, from a game she had just completed, in the middle Iris’ judgement scene from the love interests because Iris harassed the game’s main character: Yuuri. The original fate of Iris, after losing her engagement from the prince and being exposed of harassment in front of her whole school, leads to a miserable life at a church. Iris, this time around, as an efficient office worker from Japan, gets sent by the Duke, her father, to care for their territory’s fief as fief lord. From there Iris, along with her loyal companions and friends, care for the fief with all of Iris’ knowledge from Japan with plenty of bumps along the way from the game’s love interests and Yuuri. Yuuri may not be the sweet video game protagonist she is thought to be.
So, one day, I had read through most everything and I wanted a little bit of romance in my life. And while this didn’t originally have the romance I wanted, it still piqued my interest. The real appeal to this is how strong Iris is as a character. She doesn’t take shit from anyone and holds her head up with pride. But in the times she is weak she has supportive friends that would do anything for her in a heartbeat. Another appealing factor is how technical and political this manga is. The manga describes real life things to improve the fief such as a banking system and taxation, but also gets political with the two factions of the two princes. It’s a good mix a strong female lead, economics, politics, royalty, and friendship.
There is also a Light Novel that some amazing people have translated online! Go support them!
8. That Time I got Reincarnated as a Slime (Tensei Shitara Slime Datta Ken)
More isekai! Just like most isekai main characters, our main character is a simple corporate worker who lives a normal life in Tokyo. Unfortunately, after pushing his friend out of the way of an assailant on the street, our MC dies while hearing a strange voice responding to his dying thoughts. When our MC wakes up he discovers that he is now a slime in a new world and discovers a dragon in the cave he woke up, befriends him, and receives the name Rimuru Tempest. Strangely, Rimuru has abilities that a normal slime would not have - the most notable being his ability to devour anything and mimic its appearance and abilities. Rimuru starts his journey after escaping the cave and one thing leads to another and suddenly there are a bunch of monsters calling him “Master” and “Rimuru-sama” and Rimuru is the head of a monster country.
I normally don’t like OP characters, but I strangely find Rimuru okay. Rimuru has plenty of over powered characteristics and abilities but Rimuru’s personality and demeanor makes it tolerable. It’s just fun seeing how everyone underestimates Rimuru because he’s a slime. Rimuru is also very morally aligned, in that he’s very clear with his desires and doesn’t tolerate it if the line is crossed.
This manga has an anime that is currently airing!
9. I Reincarnated into an Otome Game as a Villainess with Only Destruction Flags
EVEN MORE ISEKAI! We follow Katarina Klaus who hits her head and awakens the memories of her past life as a seventeen year old girl in Japan. Katarina Klaus, however, is the haughty aristocrat villainess in a fantasy otome game with swords and magic. Having recovered her memories, Katarina cannot find it in herself to act the same as the old Katarina as she finds aristocratic society a pain. Unfortunately for Katarina, according to the game, death or exile awaits her for each and every route. Katarina decides the best thing to do is somehow protect herself by improving her magic and swordsmanship to escape the death flags. What follows are antics of farming to enhance her magical ability and her unintentional wooing of the game’s love interests. Oblivious and focused on matching the love interests to the game’s main character while avoiding a destruction flag, Katarina doesn’t notice how everyone, even the game’s main character falls for her. Farming, failed match-making, admiration from all sides, and a panicking main character awaits you.
This is another one that I found looking for romance. This is more of a comedy isekai more than anything. Sure there’s magic and other abilities but the manga doesn’t focus on that. The manga focuses more on the strangeness that is Katarina as she is now. I would have never expected to find an isekai manga MC have a hobby in farming. The way Katarina is so oblivious to everyone falling for her is also pretty great.

10. The Saint’s Magic Ability is Omnipotent (Seijo no Maryoku wa Bannou desu)
God how much isekai do I read? Sei, a regular office worker, was suddenly summoned to another world by a saint summoning ritual with another girl she does not recognize. The prince of this country, despite there being two girls summoned to their world, completely ignores Sei and declares the other girl is the saint who will save the country from the miasma, without confirming his claim. Sei, outraged, demands that because she is apparently not the saint that she be sent back home but is told it is impossible. Sei lives a comfortable but restless life at the castle, having gotten used to the grueling work style of Japan. While exploring the castle she becomes interested in potion making. Her magic is overly effective to everything she does and creates without her meaning to - even her food gives people more energy. As time goes on, more and more people come to respect Sei’s good deeds and starts to think she is the saint while the girl parading around with the country’s prince is a fake. Sei, knowing she is the saint, only wants to live a quiet life creating potions.
This one is just so precious because of how amazing Sei is without meaning to. She knows she is the saint but doesn’t want to admit it. It’s also really fun seeing how she interacts with the other characters. Sei isn’t used to praise or romantic attention. A lot of things are new to her in this new world but all she wants to do is be useful in her own way.

11. The White Cat That Swore Vengeance Was Just Lazing on the Dragon King’s Lap
This is sadly relatable. Ruri has forcibly been friends her neighbor Asahi for years. Ruri is the beautiful daughter to a foreign model and a diplomat of Japan. If you were to look up the definition of beauty in a dictionary, Ruri’s picture would be there. Platinum blonde hair, blue eyes, elegant Japanese features and all. Asahi, meanwhile, has been coddled and loved throughout her whole life because her approachable nature and cuteness that no one except for Ruri seems immune to. Everything Asahi does is somehow blamed on Ruri, even when she isn’t directly involved. Everyone is on Asahi’s side. Having tried to escape Asashi and the negativity of those around her on multiple occasions, Ruri has realized that Asahi is willing to follow her everywhere no matter what Ruri tries. While on campus at her university with Asahi; she, Asahi, and a couple of Asahi’s friends/admirers get transported to another world via magic and everyone rushes to Asahi calling her the lady priestess. Ruri, seeing this as her chance to escape Asahi, is told she is an idiot for thinking she could return to her own world. Almost immediately all those in the Kingdom of Nadarsia hate Ruri because Asahi herself keeps clinging to Ruri while ignoring them. Without Asahi’s knowledge they kick Ruri off the hidden forest and Ruri finds herself in the care of a kind, yet ugly, old lady from the dragon kindgom who takes care of her and teaches her about the magic the fairies grant in this world. Surprisingly, the fairies are seem to gather around Ruri and adore her. When Ruri has gotten used to this world she visits the dragon kingdom on her own, gets scared and wears an ancient bracelet given to her by a powerful fairy that allows her to turn into a cat and is given the title “Cherished One” and meets the Dragon King who falls in love with her cat form. Cue title and roll credits!
I say this is relatable because of a toxic frienship I once had. I broke it off with a friend and for a long time things were awkward among my other friends and a lot of people kept insisting that we would make up someday despite me not wanting that. These friends now have realized that it was a lot more than that and funnily enough they have broken it off with her as well. But this is a cute story about a victim finally getting her vengeance and the love and praise she deserves. There’s also cute cat antics and a sprinkle of romance in it.

12. Boku no Hero Academia: Vigilantes
A very familiar title to another one on this list! In a world where 80% of the population has these special abilities called “quirks”, our main character is part of the 80% that does have a quirk. Unfortunately, not everyone is blessed with a quirk such as fire manipulation or engines in their bodies to fight crime. Himawari Koichi has the quirk known as “Slide and Glide”, giving him the average ability to slide over plain surfaces. Despite this, Koichi has always wanted to be hero and admires Number 1 Hero All Might as his role model. Despite not being a hero, Koichi uses his quirk in public areas, breaking quirk regulation laws, to get to his destination quickly and hates said restrictions. After a series of events Koichi decides to use his quirk, while wearing an All Might hoodie, to do good deeds for the public - all simple things. All he ever does for awhile is give directions, clean up litter, or return dropped items while utilizing his quirk. But things become dangerous when he meets freelance idol Pop☆Step and a quirkless, yet powerful, old man known as Knuckleduster and they somehow become vigilantes for their neighborhood while getting deeply involved in a quirk improvement drug known as Trigger.
This is what I wanted Boku no Hero Academia to be when I first read BNHA. I wanted a quirkless character fighting crime with their own power. I have to admit I was disappointed when Deku got his quirk. The setting of Vigilantes (or Illegals) is before the BNHA timeline. Eraserhead has yet to become a teacher at UA and the original Ingenium is still running around. We get to see an other side of the heroes we love and hate and get to see how vigilantism effects this quirk filled world. Koichi, while also being an All Might fanboy is different from Deku. Pop☆Step is a cute tsundere idol who is still trying to climb the popularity ranks. Knuckleduster is a mysterious man who fights crime with his own justice and abilities. It’s an eye opener to another aspect of the BNHA world.
13. Bloom into You (Yagate Kimi Ni Naru)
The romance that isn’t supposed to be? Koito Yuu is a first year in high school who enjoys reading Shoujo manga. The problem(?) is that she doesn’t understand the feeling of love. Nanami Touko is a third year at the same high school that Yuu unintentional watches get confessed to but Touko refuses. Yuu gets recruited in helping the student council that Touko is a part of and realizes that Touko is the same as her. No matter how many people confess to either of them, be it one or dozens, they will never feel anything when it happens. Yuu goes to Touko for help, realizing that they are the same and gets advice to reject someone who confessed to her at her middle school graduation. But immediately after, Touko confesses that if it was Yuu, she could fall in love with her. What results is a story of a not-so romance and a refreshing coming of age story.
This is one messed up romance story. Like the relationship Koito Yuu and Nanami Touko have is so messed up. The upside to this story is that it talks about homosexuality and asexuality with so much lax that it’s refreshing. This manga is cute and entertaining at times and the romance is unorthodox. The character backstories are interesting and heartbreaking and the way the characters interact with each other are interesting. You won’t see what happens in this manga in most manga you come across.
This manga has an anime that is currently airing!

aa So I just woke up to this?
I’m just.. speechless? I can’t believe this actually happened, so thank you all for the last few months, for every like, reblog and comment. It’s been such a pleasure to interact with you and scream about Mirio and The Big Three<3 I hope 2019 won’t bring us too many tears (spoiler: it will.) and we can all laugh about their shenanigans again (spoiler: we won’t.). This blog came alive with crazy good fanart, hilarious memes and sweet headcanons, sprinkled with my neverending affection towards Mirio, so kudos go out to the amazing artists and writers that create the content we love<3 Thank you for over 1k followers and I hope to see the family of mirihoes grow in the progressing year! I’ve received a lot of questions for my milestone special and I only picked out a few, but if you want more of these, let me know! Now let’s dive right into the Q&A!
Heey~ I’m a huge Bnha fan and I love this blog, keep up the great work!! \(^-^)/ I’d love to know how old you are, if that’s not too personal of a question?
Not at all! I’m actually 20 y/o and my Birthday is in June, also my zodiac is Gemini👭
What do you do for a living?
I’m a university student in my second year! I’m majoring in Linguistics and my minor is English Literature and Culture. Though before, I did a year of Environmental Sciences, but it just wasn’t my cup of tea so I quit🤷♀️ I’m also part timing at a boutique.
Hello! I check your blog everyday and I can’t with all your reactions, they’re almost always the same as mine:D Which state (USA) are you from and what languages do you speak?
Lol, do I really sound American?:D I’m actually from Germany, so German is my mother tongue! Other than that, I consider myself pretty fluent in English (your assumption of me being a native speaker flatters me so much, you have no idea) and I guess my French is decent. I can order food and ask for directions in Spanish (ayyyy) and studied Hindi for two semesters at Uni. Also I’m currently learning Japanese for my degree in Linguistics.
Do you have a favorite anime show? Other than My hero academia of course!
My all time favorite anime is definitely Arslan Senki! Besides that, I also love Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, Assassination Classroom, Durarara, Hunter x Hunter and pretty much every existing sports anime (Haikyuu, Kuroko no Basuke, Daiya no Ace, Free!, Yowapedal, Yuri on Ice, Prince of Tennis,.. although Haikyuu is my favorite) I enjoy most genres as long as the plot and characters appeal to me.
Do you read any manga? (also LOVE YOUR BLOG!!<3)
Yeah! I really love manga and I’ve read tons of shoujo when I was younger (I bingeread every night in middle school tbh) Nowadays though, not so much anymore.. It’s not that I came to hate it, I just don’t have as much time unfortunately-.-’ I do read the new Bnha and Haikyuu chapters on a weekly basis, but I can’t manage more than that. I also read yaoi/shounen-ai manga and doujinshi from time to time, but it’s not as much of an obsession as it was a few years ago. However, I own a couple of manga series (Bnha, Haikyuu, Arslan Senki), which I love to reread in my free time😊
hey, we share a love for mirio, so do you maybe have a few anime recommendations, or any good anime you’re watching now?
uhuhuhu birds of a feather flock together;))) Of course I can dish out some recommendations, but I’ll start with what I’m watching atm. I started rewatching Daiya no Ace not so long ago (due to the announcement of Season 4) so I sometimes watch a few episodes of that when I find the time. Also, and this is a recommendation as well, there’s this new track and field anime called Kaze ga Tsuyoku Fuiteiru (Run with the Wind) coming out every Friday and it’s hilarious. If you like sports anime, you should definitely give it a go! The last anime I’m rewatching right now is Sukitte Ii na yo (Say I love you), cause I’ve been in a shoujo mood lately and after several years I still can’t deal with the cuteness of this show. Now for recs.. this is hard, since everyone has a different taste in series, but other than the shows I’ve named in the “Favorite anime” question, I’d recommend Wotakoi (Wotaku ga Koi no Muzukashii). It’s a very sweet anime about the love stories of otakus, so if you like a good laugh and lots of fluff, this show is for you (11eps). Same goes for Gekkan Shoujo Nozaki-kun (12eps + 6 short specials). Shounen-wise I enjoyed for example Noragami, Bleach, Katekyo Hitman Reborn and Magi. Shoujo-wise I can always rewatch Toradora, Kimi ni Todoke and Itazura na Kiss. Sorry for rambling, there are just too many!😅
What pronouns do you use? And what’s you sexual orientation? If the latter question is too personal, just ignore it(/ω\)
No worries! I use she/her pronouns and I’m pan, slightly favoring men. Probably due to the fact that I’ve only had hetero relationships so far. Though, I really don’t care about my partner’s gender🤷♀️
hi, i’ve been going through a rough time lately and your reblogs and memes never fail to make my day. how so you stay positive when things are going downhill? (sorry for the weird ask..)
Your question isn’t weird at all! I’m sorry to hear that you don’t feel well lately and I’m glad my posts are able to cheer you up a bit<3 I, for my part, am a very optimistic person and always try to concentrate on the positive things in my life, but I cannot deny that due to my personal problems I’ve spent many nights sleepless as well. Unfortunately, there’s no recipe for happiness, but here are some things you should always keep in mind should you feel down: Don’t surround yourself with toxic people. Don’t let them in your life and if they already are, either ignore them or cut them off. The latter won’t always work, since the world of adulthood is a cruel place, but try to develop a thick skin and don’t let them abuse the power over you that they don’t actually have. Try to talk with people. I can tell from experience that talking about your problems will almost always make you feel better, or at least lighter afterwards. Think positive. There’s never only black and white, so even if everything seems hopeless or bland, you should never cease to search for the good aspects. An example from me: Uni fucks me up real bad atm. I have six exams and one term paper to write this semester and I’m seriously afraid of failing. I’ve always had insane expectations of myself, because when I was a toddler, my parents found out that I was highly talented and that has been a as much of a curse as it is a blessing throughout my entire life. Whenever something gets too much for me and I end up in a slump, I think about how grateful I am to have so many wonderful friends. I think of all the things I plan to do with the money I earn, such as travelling, buying manga, movies, clothes,.. and even if that might not seem like a trivial matter for some people, I think of all the amazing anime coming out this year: Ice Adolescence, One Punch Man Season 2, Attack on Titan Season 3, Fruits Basket remake, Bnha Season 4, Haikyuu Season 4, Daiya no Ace Season 3.. Why am I naming these? Because they keep me going. They give me something to look forward to. They make me realize that I’m extremely grateful to be alive, because I get to experience these works. I get to discuss my favorite shows with people, who share my interests! I get to scream about Mirio’s bara arms with you guys! If that isn’t something to be cheerful about, I don’t know what is<3
And since I don’t want to end this on a solemn note, here’s a personal favorite of mine:
On a scale from 1-10, how much do you love Mirio?^^
1.000.000 (A million, you get it? wink wonk) Thanks for sticking around! Hope this gave you a little insight on who I am and I’d love to spend 2019 with you as well<3
#we reached 1k i can't believe#have this monster of a post#also this was a lot of fun#milestone!!#sei spills#sei in private

Any more fics like "There is Brotherhood" (Noble tie that binds series) where Stiles and Derek are kinda rivals and prank each other, with top-ish Derek on the top? Doesn't matter if it's canon or not ~
AND
Anonymous said:Hiiii your recs are always so good, I have read so many fics this week that I would never have found without your rec lists!! This is probably a bit specific, but do you have any sterek rivals/enemies/ hot hate slash competitive sex and then they fall in love fic recs? like shot through the heart THE ASSASSIN AU FIC THAT HAS BECOME MY FAVOURITE THING EVER. I’m sorry if this doesn’t make sense??? anyway you don’t have to, I am grateful either way for all your fic recs!
Yeah! Here’s rival!sterek. - Anastasia
There is a Brotherhood by minusoneday
(3/3 | 21,004 | Explicit)
So far, college has taught Stiles three things:
1) Eight am classes are cruel and unusual and should be avoided at all costs, even if it means having to enroll in something truly hideous instead, like Econ 101.
2) Dorm security is just as tight as Stiles’ orientation leader had promised it would be, and the dude guarding Scott’s dorm in particular does not respond well to bribes.
3) Mrs. McCall clearly had no clue what she was talking about when she’d insisted that Scott and Stiles needed to branch out and room with strangers, so it’s all her fault that Scott ended up with a total dick of a roommate and Stiles got stuck all the way across campus with some guy who has a girlfriend two towns over and is thus never around.
Or, the one where pledge brothers Stiles and Scott start a prank war with Derek Hale’s fraternity.
Shot Through The Heart by LunaCanisLupus_22
(12/12 I 64,883 I Explicit)
All they’ve given him is the guy’s head shot. And it’s terrible because now he is ridding the world of one more ridiculously attractive, instant pants dropping- take me now, if you please- regulation hottie.
Even if he has a scowl to rival Kristen Stewart.
Or the one when Stiles and Derek work for rival assassin companies and are sent to kill each other. It definitely doesn’t go as planned.
***
The One In Which Derek And Stiles Are Band Geeks by bleep0bleep
(1/1 I 803 I General)
Stiles is barely awake and is taking his cello out of his case when another boy stares him down. “That’s my seat,” he says.
Stiles blinks at him. “Does it have your name on it?”
“Yes, it does,” and he yanks Stiles forward, rude, and Stiles turns around and sees D. Hale, 1st Chair Cello written in neat print on masking tape.
The Great Gingerbread Bake-Off by mikkimouse
(1/1 I 2,828 I Teen)
This was the seventh year Derek was competing in the gingerbread house competition at the Beacon Hills Holiday Festival, and he’d taken first place for three of those years. The other three years, Stiles had won, each time with even more ridiculous rude gestures and lewd winks in Derek’s direction.
Derek was bound and determined to take first place this year, and put a halt to Stiles’s current winning streak.
The Curve of Your Clavicle by WhoNatural
(1/1 I 6,264 I Teen)
Derek isn’t an uptight person - seriously, for an alpha, he’s downright laid-back - but something about Stilinski makes him want to bare his teeth and grasp him by the scruff and bite.
No, not bite. That would be incredibly inappropriate, of course - and Derek plus the legal department are aware of that. Anyway, the point is, Stilinski needs to be kept in line.
Or, wherein Derek’s office rival might be the same person keeping him sane at night when the loneliness hits.
A Tentative Truce by Inell
(1/1 I 8,540 I Teen)
Stiles and Derek have a long standing rivalry that has extended beyond the Beacon Hills High School theater department to every other area of their high school lives. With the announcement of the winter production, their competitiveness has to be set to the side so the musical can be successful. With a tentative truce in place, Stiles unable to ignore his growing infatuation for his co-star.
atom to atom by jadore_hale
(2/2 I 8,983 I Teen)
“So, you’re telling me that you hate Derek so much that you wouldn’t leap at the chance to jump his bones?”
“That’s different!” Stiles cried.
“How exactly?”
“Because unfortunately for me, Derek’s hotter than the Earth’s mantle. All we need is one rough hate-fuck— Preferably in the chem lab, role-playing sexy chemist while he bends me over one of the tables—and I’ll get him out of my system. That’s as far as our relationship will ever go.”
Stiles glanced across the cafeteria to where Derek was still fail-eating his lunch and sighed so put out.
“Now, if you’ll excuse me, I have to go make fun of Derek eating organic baby carrots.”
Sox and Bombers by Nanoochka
(1/1 | 17,449 | Explicit)
They didn’t normally discuss their games in deference to the sanctity of their respective teams and the ancient Yankees/Red Sox rivalry, but Derek had to admit it was nice to combine shoptalk and pillow talk with someone who understood. Still, Stiles was the enemy, even if Derek did spend an awful lot of time consorting with him. If by consorting you meant fucking him into the mattress.
Chasing Number One by Metamorphosis2011
(1/1 | 18,530 | R)
Meet Derek Hale, the world tennis number one and a “gift from god” for the sport. The ‘Iron Man’ from the US, four years at number one, unchallenged, with an unrivalled run of victories. Enter Stiles Stilinski, the 17 year old wunderkind from Germany, hot on his tail, chasing his spot at number 1. Surely there is no time and place for the small complication that is romance in the competitive world that is performance tennis. Definitely not if everyone else has their say!
Fair Verona by rootbeer
(¾ I 34,795 I Mature)
Questions: Is it still an arranged marriage if the two getting married are the ones who arranged it, even if no one else knows that?.
“Alpha Hale we have exhausted almost every possible avenue that I can think of in order to find middle ground between your two packs. The Hale Pack and The McCall Pack simply have too much hatred and history between the two of them to accept terms. This is what I have to offer you. I thought both of these packs were committed to trying everything they could to find peace after all these years.”
Scott seemed to recover first, calmly asking, “Deaton you’re not honestly arranging a marriage between Derek Hale and Stiles, are you?”

whhhew school drama. unh. skip past this if you don’t want school drama. also there’s a lot and I’m mostly rambling but.. heck do I hate this poor fool.
so I’m one out of three people in the 2DART class and I’m the only one who doesn’t have to do strict realism-only, 100% of the time, if there’s even a single hair off in comparison to your original HD reference then you get a 0. this is ‘cause I complained quite a lot about it(literally the entire class switched classes within the first week because of insane standards) before they tried to sell a few art pieces, the ORIGINALS, that I had worked on for 3+ weeks without my permission and under the author of ‘by a [school’s name] student’ in order to ‘raise funds for the school.’ fuck no. those were my materials, my microns, my hard work; so obviously we threatened to sue and got my fucking art back within a day(then a bunch of parents crying ‘oh we bought the art in an auction it should be ours!! refund ain’t enough’ drama so if you wanna hear about that just send an ask ‘cause I love roasting those poor, poor entitled individuals)
anyhow, back on topic. the second person is here is someone who uses charcoal and gets away with non-realism because he gets away with saying ‘oh if I blurr the lines to form realism I’ll lose the sharpness and it won’t seem real’(which he’s really smart, I appreciate him). then.. then we have the third person. who doesn’t even fucking art.
whenever we get a project she exclaims really stupid ideas aloud and then said she’s going to do it. once we’re about halfway through(so that you can tell what the other two are arting) she starts to claim that one of us ‘STOLE HER IDEA’ and that we’re copying her despite the fact she HAS NO ART done and she had already claimed something. sometimes we have to change what we’re doing and only have half the time or less to do the piece(try doing an 11 by 16 realism pen & ink in only a week. KILL ME) since our teacher outright agrees with her despite the lack of work or evidence, but sometimes she shrugs it off.
then, THEN, when the fucking day to turn it in comes, she walks in, sets her stuff down, and starts BEGGING the teacher to give her ‘oh, one more day!! I promise it’ll be done tomorrow! I just don’t understand [literally everything and anything, excuse varies on day/project]!!’ next day? same act, gets another day. she does this for a week or more until finally, one day.. ‘oh! teacher! I don’t get it... I shouldn’t HAVE to do this because I don’t understand! that’s just so unfair to me!! I should have [me or the other guy’s] piece, they can do another in a day or two, right??’
the worst part is? the teacher fucking buys it. she gets excused for EVERY project, never does her own shit(and when it does, if I had done it in class? I’d get a 0. a goose egg. an F-.), and worst of all always complains about EVERYTHING. ‘ooooh, I don’t like this project! I don’t WANT to draw [literally something like a fucking worm or an insect! A LITERAL FUCKING WORM! A WORM IS AN ELONGATED OVAL THAT /WIGGLES!/ HOW DO YOU NOT FUCKING UNDERSTAND A /WORM?/]! ‘ or, wait for it, ‘I don’t think this fits with my talents! I don’t want to do this.’ ‘this is boring. I don’t want to do it!’ ‘this is too complicated, I don’t want to do it!’
EVEN FUCKING WORSE IS THAT TODAY THEY ANNOUNCE SHE’S THE ON THE STUDENT COUNCIL AS THE FUCKING /ART DEPARTMENT REPRESENTATIVE/. none of the other teachers fall for her bullshit. the math teacher lets her whine and complain but once she starts begging to take her test home so that her dad does it for her(which he does, I’ve asked him) after the fifth day of EVERYONE ELSE HAS TAKEN THE FUCKING TEST JUST DO IT ALREADY he just straight up gives her a 20.(then she complains about fucking that, too. ‘it’s unfair that I get lower grades than everyone else!!’ no, it’s unfair to everyone else that you even got a 20 for answering NO FUCKING questions when everyone else had to do an ACTUAL FUCKING TEST.)
then the digital media teacher just gives her a 0 if she keeps interrupting class(which she does. when she doesn’t understand the simpliest thing, she always shouts and takes up the whole class ‘oh but I don’t understand!! it’s really unfair that I have to do this...’ even though it’s being SPOONFED to her MULTIPLE FUCKING TIMES.), then the history teacher demands she leaves the room, then the science teacher straight up threatens to fail her for the year(and often fails her for the six weeks anyways.), and so on.
BUT FUCK. WHY THE FUCK IS SHE THE STUDENT COUNCIL ART DEPARTMENT REPRESENTIVE? YOU COULDN’T FIND LITERALLY /ANYONE/ THAT YOU MIGHT HAVE IN MIND? SOMEONE WHO DOESN’T WEAR SO MUCH MAKEUP SHE LOOKS LIKE SHE’S FUCKIN’ FOURTY? SOMEONE WHO /ACTUALLY DOES WORK?/ SOMEONE WHO DOESN’T THINK THE WORLD REVOLVES AROUND HER? SOMEONE WHO GIVES NO SHITS ABOUT ANY OF THE ARTS EXPECT THE ART OF WHINING AND MANIPULATION? oh, right, because the art teacher I’m in a class with /fucking likes her/ and considers her her star student despite the fact she does literally no fucking art.
like, I understand mental illness but.. THREE FUCKING YEARS. despite her failing classes, her parents flash some cash and she ‘mysteriously!’ passes without doing any work. how the fuck is she a senior. I’ve once or twice approached her in a passive way and tried to explain her to really fucking sugarcoated and nicely that ‘hey, what you’re doing interrupts the class. can you save it for after school? write it down, maybe?’ and her fucking response was ‘oh that’d be unfair to me to waste my time like that. the teachers are there to answer my questions, otherwise they wouldn’t be doing their jobs!’ this fucking bitch thinks the world revolves around hER. AND SHE WANTS TO BE A FUCKING DOCTOR.
the only thing I have to say to that is: good luck sleeping your way through your first year of college, if you even make it past the application stage. you’re HIGHER THAN FUCKING HIGH MAINTENANCE. I KNOW HIGH MAINTENANCE PEOPLE AND THEY AREN’T EVEN HALF OF YOU.
qUICK addition: just overheard her talking to the sports/gym/PE teacher. she was demanding the disbandment of the bowling team(insanely high interest) to form a tennis team(no interest expect her.). I think.. I think the converstation speaks for itself.
teacher; ‘well, why do you want a tennis team?’ her; ‘I can work at my church if there was one!’ teacher; ‘oh, you’re interested in playing?’ her; ‘no! but I’ll be able to work at my local church if there was one!’ teacher; ‘okay, so what sports would you be willing to play?’ her; ‘yoga. it’s the only fair one there is.’ (me); ‘..that’s not a sport, [her fuckin’ name.]’ her; ‘says the horseback rider! that’s not a sport, that’s a hobby.’ teacher; ‘...I’m so glad I didn’t have to tell her that yoga isn’t a sport’ teacher begins dipping the heck outta there. her; ‘it IS a sport! you’re both wrong, I’ve actually done yoga! [me], why are you so rude? I was trying to have a converstation!’ (me); ‘class is starting.’ teacher has dipped by now, goes to freedom aka anywhere away from her.
then I proceed not to respond. she’s whining about how unfair it is that the school won’t force people to play tennis just so she, and only she, can benefit from it.
in class now. gonna end this here, but if y’all want updates on this fuckin’ scene, feel free to send in an ask. I’ve got a lot of stories of her and her fuckin’ ‘best friend’(the school drug dealer who’s SUPPOSED to be kicked out but her parents waved around some cash.. like usual.) doing stupid shit. they won’t make through college. I usually am nice to everyone around my school since I’m the neutral individual who knows everyone but honestly? fuck this one person in particular. all she do is make EVERYONE ELSE fall behind because of her interruptions in class and constant ‘oh it’s so unfair!! life is so cruel and mean to me!! I just don’t understand so I shouldn’t have to do it!!!!’
just. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
#=owlrants#=owlcease#note I'm REALLY RUDE HERE SO#I use the work fuck and bitch a lot#also a reference to selling out your body(which I'd never do myself; you do you but I'm not doing it)#but yeah#FUCK THIS INDIVIDUAL IN PARTICULAR#rant#high school drama#drama#also really negative#also rambling#oh yeah and I poke at her bad makeup skills even though I don't wear makeup#so if that pisses you off don't read it#finally: if this bitch somehow gets a doctor degree I'll lose all trust in the medical care of the state she graduated from#she can't even do basic fucking decimals and fractions#fuck her. honestly. just grow a BRAIN already.

Longview - Chapter 4
An actual whump scene! A teeny tiny little lab whump scene. T
This was as much as I thought I could get away with. I laugh at that now.
CW: slight lab whump, memory loss
"Jett, what do you want?" demanded Treauna. Jett snickered. (Yes Jett is the Zuko character I don't want to talk about it.)
"Trying to give New-Kid here a second chance at getting new friends." Jett was the same boy that he had seen in Mr. Ferno's class.
"I just want to give you a chance before you get hurt," he hinted vaguely to Nick. Melody looked miserable, and Chase was trying to hold Treauna back. Michael tipped his glasses down, and his eyes started to shine red.
"Go away. Now." His words were articulate and harsh. Jett sneered and backed away.
"Oh, I 'outa," mumbled Treauna under her breath. (0.o) A vine grew slowly up from the table and slinked across the floor towards the Blaze Force. She was still grinding her teeth, and the vine started to tighten around their chair legs.
"Trea," started Melody slowly. Treauna sighed and the vine came back to her.
"They deserve it," she grumbled.
"What did he mean, 'before you get hurt?'" asked Nick. Melody sighed.
"Never mind, he's just being a jerk," growled Treauna. Nick sensed that whatever this was, it was also a hard topic.
"So, is there like a competition that all of the forces are in? Like they collect points and one wins at the end of the year?" The four of them stared at Nick.
"You watch way too many movies," said Chase. (Yes I thought I was being slick)
"Yeah, what would we even compete at? We can't do anything in the air, because not all of the forces can fly. We can't do anything that involves sports," pointed out Melody.
"Because Strength Force would mop the floor with Mind Force," finished Treauna.
"Mind Force are the nerds," filled in Chase.
"At one point there was a Longview Olympics, but too many students died and they shut it down," mentioned Michael. Nick stared nervously at him, and he smiled.
"I'm kidding. It's is just like the Olympics, once every four years." Other forces were getting up and leaving, so the eating hall was becoming empty.
"Should we head out to our club house?" offered Melody.
Following the others, Nick looked around at the other force's club houses. Strength Force's Club House was next to the gym, and Nick could hear them fighting. Something fell on his head as he was walking down the halls, and one of the kids from Flight Force swooped down and apologized.
"All of the different Forces have their own clubhouse. As you can tell, Strength Force is next to the gym," said Michael, gesturing to the noisy door.
"Flight Force is up in the towers. If you can't fly, it's super hard to get up there without their help. Let's see, where else?" Most of the students were weaving in and out of the crowd, trying to get to their own clubhouse, but Michael, Chase, Treauna, and Melody knew their way around the chaos well.
"Over there is the Labs, that's where Control Force is, and Blaze Force is in the basement, but you will never want to find yourself there, trust me." (Blaze Force is just Slytherins they’re even in the fucking basement I hate it. Omg) The school was so much larger than Nick thought that it was going to be, and at every turn, there was another hallway with more and more doors that went to new hallways. Nick's head was spinning with the size.
"How do you remember all of this? How long have you been at the school?" asked Nick.
Michael, Chase, Treauna, and Melody stopped.
"Um, I, I don't remember," started Chase. Michael was confused, Treauna was scrunching up her face, and Melody was rubbing her temples. At one time, every student in the hallway, apart from Nick stopped. Slowly Nick started to look around. They were all frozen, looking in the same direction. Nick blinked.
"Hey, dude, what's the matter? You zoned out there for a moment," said Chase. Nick snapped back. (wow. so subtle. much intrigue)
"What? Oh, um what were you saying?"
"Earth Force is over by the green houses, and so is Water," said Melody.
"And no one really knows where Stealth Force's clubhouse is. You only get to see it if you are excepted into Stealth." They passed by the library, and there was a sign for Mind Force. (I’m not gonna lie I love Stealth Force with my entire soul it’s great and I take no criticism on them.)
"That's the new library. They built another one after a storm pushed a tree trough the old one," explained Chase. The farther that they went into this hallway, the less people there were. By the time that they got to the old doors, the hallway was empty besides them.
"This is our clubhouse. It's the old library. Treauna fixed the hole with the tree that fell."
The first room that they walked into was very large, with bookshelves and stacks of books everywhere. One of the first things that you noticed when you walked in was the large foliage of a tree that made up the back corner of the room. (wow so much description -_-)
"Our rooms are up this way. You can Bunk with me and Chase for tonight," said Michael.
Nick rubbed his eyes and sat up. Micheal was still snoring in his bed, but Chase was already up. Stretching, Nick swung his legs around and sat on the edge of the bed. He was starting to miss his aunt, and was wondering why she hadn't tried to contact him. slowly rising, he headed down the staircase to the common room. It was a mess, there was book and paper scattered across the room. The leaves of the tree side were also covering the room. Table were overturned, chairs strewn across the room, and Treauna's bonsai tree's were broken. Melody and Chase were trying to clean up the room, while Treauna was fixing the tree.
"What happened here? It looks like a tornado came through here!" exclaimed Nick. Melody looked guilty.
"It was my fault. I have bad dreams sometimes and I use my power in my sleep. That's why the other forces didn't want me. And what Jett was talking about. I'm dangerous."
"Don't listen to her. The other forces ignore us because we are better, different," said Treauna. (DEAR GOD i am so sorry. We’Re nOt LikE oThER ForCeS)
"Bad dream?" asked Michael, walking down the staircase. Melody nodded and went back to cleaning. The five of them quickly cleaned the room up and started to do what they did every Saturday.
Nick was bored. Not an every-day bored. Not a I-don't-have-anything-to-do bored. A I'm-out-of-my-mind, I-want-to-disapear bored. Chase was playing solitaire, Treauna was growing her Bonsai Tree, Michael was trying to make a ship in a bottle, and Melody was absent-mindedly flipping pages in a book. The silence was as thick as fog.
"Is this really what you guys do on a day with no school? Sit around and mope?" yelled Nick. The quiet was getting to him, and he needed to hear something. The four looked to each other, then back to him.
"What else would we do?" asked Chase. Nick shrugged.
"I don't know! There has to be things to do in a school this size! Ice cream parlor? Movie theater? Tennis court? Video games?"
"The other forces are always crowding those. Wait a minute, you should be getting ready. You need to try out for other forces," said Melody. Nick stepped back.
"Try out?"
"Yeah," said Chase, standing up, "you don't have to worry though, your power is once in a century, any force would be happy to have you. You have the pick of the litter!" Nick sat back down, and so did Chase. Michael went to the bookshelf and picked out a book.
"Here," he said, giving it to Nick, "this is all about the different forces, and what they do." Nick sat flipping through the book, but there wasn't really one that sense for him. He found himself reading more and more of Shape Force.
Shape Force is a force of people who can change their body chemistry, changing the very molecules in their body.
Changing their molecules? That is the closest to what I do that I've read so far.
"When I try out, what do I do or say?" asked Nick to the air.
"Well," said Treauna, walking to the center of the room, "Like this.
Hello. My name is Treauna, and I control plants." Puling branches from the tree on the other side, Treauna made a large platform under her feet. After standing on it for a moment, she sent it back to the other side of the room like nothing ever happened.
"And then you wait and the Lead will come and tell you if you made it or not."
"Lead?"
"Yeah, they're the head of the force. I'm the Lead of United Force," explained Michael.
"So, which one are you going for?" asked Chase.
"Shape Force." Without saying anything, Treauna stood and went to her room. (I don't know why but I love it when characters just abruptly leave the room it's great)
"Is it something I said?" asked Nick when she was out of the room. Melody sighed.
"Kitty. She's the Lead of Shape Force. When Treauna tried out, she was so cruel to her. Instead of telling her that she wasn't in, she turned into a cat and attacked her. Treauna ran back here crying, her clothes were torn to shreds, and there was a lot of scratches on her face. They still glare at each other when they pass by." (Wait why was Treauna (which holy fuck. That’s such a cringy name) trying out for the Shape Force?? Shouldn’t it have been the earth one or maybe even the water one? I dunno my own rules are vague and very stupid.)
"I'm sorry, I didn't know," said Nick quietly.
"I'll show you where their clubhouse is. " said Michael.
Nick was standing outside the door to the Shape Force Clubhouse. He could hear them talking inside.
"Can you believe Miss Flower Power? I found leaves in my hair yesterday, I know that she was witching something above my head. She is such a brat. Like when she tried out. Ugh, her voice was just so annoying, couldn't even control myself." (shout out to Nemi who like 6 months ago blind roasted me on my voice lmao. Yeah I thought it was annoying when I was younger but now I just don’t give a fuck)
"Yeah, who did she think that she was? Coming in here. The freaks should stay with their own," snickered another voice. Nick was taken back. They're talking about Treauna. How rude. She tried out months ago. What is with these chicks? While Nick was still deep in his thought, the large door opened and Kitty walked out. Nick had always been a shy one, but even if he wasn't, he wouldn't have been able to speak. Kitty had long auburn hair that was naturally curly. Her large green eyes had long black eyelashes that softly decorated her eyes. She saw Nick and started curling her hair in her finger.
"Oh, it's you! I was hoping that you would try out for Shape." Kitty grabbed Nick by the front of his shirt and pulled him into the room. It was like a pet shop. There was dog beds covering the floor, and many different animals. A parrot landed on his head as he walked in, and other came around his feet.
"Come on guys! Say hello to our new member!" All of the animals grew until they were humans. Thankfully, the parrot flew off his head before transforming. There was about fifteen different boys and girls. More were coming from other rooms. One of them pushed him down onto one of the well-worn sofas. A small white dog jumped on his lap and stared up at his face. Nick had never been one for dogs, and this one was getting to close for comfort.
"Teddy! Down!" yelled Kitty. The small dog whined and jumped down where it transformed into a young boy with bright white hair. (OH MY GOD. TEDDY. WITH WHITE HAIR. I literally gasped holy hell what are the ODDS)This might not have been the best idea, started to think Nick. He looks to Kitty, but she was gone. An auburn cat jumped onto his lap. She had the same green eyes with large lashes. She hissed at him and scratched at his cheek.
"Ouch!" yelled Nick as he pushed he cat off of him. She scratches quickly disappeared and the crowd of people around him started to whisper. Kitty appeared in front of him again.
"Congrats. You're in," she said shaking his hand. Many of the kids howled, and Nick was getting more and more uncomfortable by the minute.
"Smart choice," said Teddy. Even in human form he was still scratching behind his ears.
"Better to get away from those freaks."
"Ha! Those are the inferior actualities in this intramural intellectual society," squawked a voice. Nick didn't know who the parrot transformed into, but he had a guess. (goddamnit)
"Yah, they're all, like, really not-smart," came a deeper voice from the back of the room. What it with these people? The people in United Force have been the only nice people that I meet here. The force members started to laugh, and Nick knew it was time to leave. (Same bro)
"Will you play with me?" yapped a small girl in pig-tales. She went down on all fours and became a cocker spaniel.
"No." It being a room full of house pets, that word was not widely respected. (🤣) All of the laughing and talking stopped at once.
"What," demanded Kitty flatly.
"You guys can't talk about them like that. This is a school full of kids with super powers! What gives you the right to call another person a freak when you fall into the same category? Trust me, they no more freakish than you, I'm pretty sure that kid has fleas!" yelled Nick. Teddy stopped scratching and looked up to Nick as Nick pointed to him. (omg teddy no)
"You're part of the force now," started Kitty. Nick cut her short.
"No, I'm not. I never said one word. I never agreed. I'm out of here."
The kids around him started to growl, and Nick strode out of the room. Kitty stopped him at the door.
"If you leave, you can never come back." Nick glared at her.
"That's the point." (okay baller move my bro)
Treauna, Michael, Melody, and Chase were sitting in their normal Saturday afternoon places, but somehow it was more boring than before. The door slammed and they all jumped. Nick stood inside the room and smiled.
"Nick!" exclaimed Chase, "How did it go?" Chase disappeared then reappeared next to Nick. Nick smiled.
"I got in." The others tried to smile for him, but he could tell that they were secretly disappointed.
"Congratulations," said Melody after a moment. Treauna sat back down and started to bit her cheek.
"I got in, but then I left." Chase, Melody, Michael, and Treauna looked at each other, then back to Nick.
"What?" asked Chase. Nick smiled again.
"Hi. My name is Nick, and I want to try out for Untied Force." The four in the room looked to each other again.
"I can't really show you my ability without hurting myself, so, yeah," finished Nick. Michael stood up and smiled.
"Congratulations. You are the first person to ever try out for United Force, and get in." Nick smiled and Chase, Melody, and Treauna jumped to congratulate him. Chase disappeared, then reappeared with a deck of cards. The five if them had such a good time that they missed dinner. By the time that Nick was heading up to bed, he was so tired that he fell asleep at once.
Nick had had bad dreams before. He had had nightmares, and he used to get night terrors when he was little, but this was nothing like those. Nick slowly opened his eyes to a bright white light shinning directly in his face. He tried to move his hands up to rub his eyes, but they wouldn't budge. He realized that he was no longer in his bed, but somewhere else. Wherever he was now, there was metal chrome walls on either side of his head. He tried to cry out, but his voice wouldn't come. A yell of panic pulled at the back of his throat. When it wouldn't come, it split and went to his brain and heart. The pounding of his own blood throbbed in his ears. His mind raced at full compactly. His lungs stopped working as the panic set in. His eyes blotched the world around them. There is no way to describe how it feels to not be able to move. (annnnnnnnd the most description we've gotten thus far is the whump scene. No one should be surprised)
"Look, I'm not saying that's easy, but it ain't hard," came a male voice. Nick tried to cry out again, but nothing came out.
"Does it hurt him?" asked a female voice.
"How should I know? And they are 'It', not him."
"Okay, does it hurt it?" asked the girl again. The silhouette of a head appeared in front of the light and Nick tried to call out to it.
"Oh my word! He's, It's awake!" cried the girl. The man groaned.
"Roll call said that there were five missing from dinner. Use that syringe, you'll need more Netoxiren." (hmm yes I will take "chemical made up by a 14 year old for $200) Two silhouettes came over the light again, and one gave Nick a shot. It stung all the way up his arm, until he woke up suddenly.

The 12 best memes of 2015: Runaway llamas, The Dress, Adele …
The internet in 2015 has given us a lot of giggles a vigil to a raccoon, Drake playing tennis and the duck army but which memes construct our cut of the best?
12. What are thooooose!
A police officer. A cheeky dude( Brandon Moore) hollering what are thooose ? at the officers functional, ugly footwear. Millions of loops and views and copycats afterwards, a meme is born. The first urban dictionary entry for the phrase and practice appeared in 2011, but it was 2015 when the sport of pointing at some awful shoes( preferably Crocs) and shouting what are those ?!! entered the mainstream. The best example is the wonderful take on the Jurassic Park theme tune( see below, 50 million Vine loops so far ), which I like because its less mean-spirited than real life instances. In fact, “the mens” who started the whole thing back in the summer seems kind of rude and is now in jail. Um.
11. Duck Army
It stormed collective internet consciousness in early September. Norwegian Kevin Synnes decided to embarrass his girlfriend in a store by pushing down on a bunch of toy ducks which, when pressed, emitted a loud aaarghh ! noise. The video was then appropriated by Vine star Charlie Murphy and subsequently looped millions of days, spawning multiple variants. There has even been a mash-up with the what are those? meme. My person favourite versions are those which pay tribute to Adele and Taylor Swift.
However, a Guardian investigation revealed that that the toy was not a duck, but a pelican. Listen to our interview with Kevin here.
Read more: How the duck army stormed the internet
10. Hello, its me
It took merely a 30 -second snippet of Adeles new single, Hello, debuted during the advert violate of the UK television show, The X Factor, to have the vocalist trending worldwide on Twitter. And while the haunting piano and hushed, smoky tones beloved of millions of fans induced much excitement among those desperate to hear the full song, the clip also inspired plenty of memes.
Hello, its me is a pretty meme-able phrase, and the internet did not disillusion. When the sepia-tinged video dropped, featuring the vocalist in an amazing coat, using a flip-phone and hanging out in an abandoned home, the memes merely multiplied. Especially re: the flip-phone. One girl even texted her ex the entire lyrics to Hello, without him catching on at all.

9. Miley, whats good?
A lot of people characterised this as Nicki Minaj hurling tint at Miley Cyrus, which is a fundamental misunderstanding of the concept of tint. Minaj didnt throw shade she immediately called Cyrus out, in front of a TV audience of millions. If anything, that is the direct opposite of hurling tint.
The incident happened at the MTV Music Video Awards in response to an interview Cyrus gave in which she called Minaj not very polite. While accepting an award Minaj called Cyrus this bitch who had a lot to say about me in the press the other day, before aiming with the perfectly passive aggressive, Miley, whats good? Cue memes. Plenties and lots of memes.

8. Confounded Nick Young
Nick Young is a basketball player who shoots for the LA Lakers. His internet fame, however, is courtesy of a confused reaction face meme. At one point during a day-in-life-of documentary, Thru The Lens, positioned on YouTube, Young pulls a huh? face when his mother calls him a buffoon. His quizzical expression towards the camera has spawned likely the best reaction macro of 2015 and can be used for disbelief, astonish or a thousand other reactions.

7. Why you always lyin?
The 21 -year-old college student Nicholas Fraser became an internet sensation when he decided to perform, in his yard, perched on a lavatory, as one does, a quick cover-up of Nexts Too Close, but with the lyrics changed to why the fuck you lyin?/ why you always lyin ?) Given that people lie all of the time , and we know about it, guys , and we all want people to know that we know, Frasers vine caught on and inspired multiple cover versions of his cover version. Now, when your mate texts to tell she is five minutes away but you know she likely hasnt left the house yet, theres a perfect means of responding. Thanks Nicholas.

6. Fifty Shades of Grey
After the Fifty Shades of Grey series of volumes sold so poorly , it was a punt for Universal Pictures to have taken on a film adaptation. But oh, brave souls it was brought to the screen in summer 2015 with Sam Taylor-Johnson at the helm and Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson starring. Given that the book had already resulted in a lot of culture cache, it was inevitable that the film would inspire memes and gags. The internet delivered. In particular, the my savors are very singular line( altered to my passions are unconventional for the internet) demonstrated a rich seam.

5. Hotline Bling
One of the best ways of 2015, the video for Drakes Hotline Bling didnt drop-off until October three months after the ballads release. But it was worth the wait. A minimalist clip, Drake proves off his unusual dance moves against different coloured backdrops inspired by artist James Turell. The rappers moves and pained impression inspired multiple parodies shared on YouTube, Vine and Twitter.
Included below are some of the best: a dancing and adorable shiba inu( aka Doge ), the Man From Another Place from Twin Peaks and perhaps best of all, some tennis backhand action.

4. The Dress
The most viral of viral phenomenons. A young lady took a picture of a dress in a clothes store and uploaded it to Tumblr. Why is this interesting? As the internet was genuinely divided as to whether the dress was blue and black, or white and gold.
The original Tumblr post pose the question racked up an enormous 73m page positions, and a BuzzFeed piece on the dress has more than 38m page positions to date. #TheDress trended for days on social media. Scientists were carried in to explain how people could be seeing different colourings. Rods and cones were mentioned. British current affairs programme Newsnight even offered its own election. The Guardian waded in, with the definitive take.

3. Poot Lovato
I dont guess Ive ever chuckled so hard as when I detected the Poot Lovato meme. A Tumblr post featuring an awkward fan photo of vocalist Demi Lovato posited the hypothesi that the snap was not of Demi herself, but her secret twin sister, Poot Lovato, who had been trapped in a cellar her entire life. The fable took hold and soon the internet was ablaze with hilarious and creative Poot memes. Fan-fiction was written, fan art draw, Instagram and Twitter accounts were established and even Demi herself addressed the gag( she wasnt amused ). Then, instead, brilliantly, a sleuth excavate out a paparazzi photo of Demi-as-Poot right at the moment the fan pic was taken. Its still funny.

2. Llamas on the run
On THE SAME DAY AS THE DRESS, the internet explosion with one of the great police chases of our time two llamas on the run. The llamas, one black and one white, ran loose in Sun City, Arizona. The whole internet followed, glued to the ABC1 5 live river of the runaway animals and tracking updates on Twitter. The llamas, true heroes of freedom and an inspiration to all, had escaped from their day job in an animal therapy centre. The black llama was caught first, its emancipation ended with a cruel lassoing. The white llama ran on, but eventually, it too was caught. Still, these two were the internets favourite llamas since Serge, the French llama who travelled by subway.

1. Dead Raccoon
My personal win for meme of 2015 is the dead raccoon, an unfortunate soul, detected deceased on a Toronto street. After a human tweeted the relevant city authorities to tell them about the raccoon, the poor critter was left for hours in the same place. Over the next 12 hours, a vigil was set up for the raccoon, documented online. A note was left, a framed photo , notes were written. Someone gave the raccoon an unlit joint as a mark of respect. It get dark. Candles were illuminated. The raccoon was named Conrad. Eventually, the authorities turned up and unceremoniously dumped Conrad in a rubbish truck. Such a lack of respect.
Raccoon update: he’s still there. Someone has written him a card .
