⋆˖⁺‧₊☽Helltober '24���₊‧⁺˖⋆

A/N: We did it freaks! :D It's the last day of October and what a ride it was! ^^ Thanks for all the support on this event! ♥ I had a lot of fun writing it and coming up with the prompts, so I hope you enjoyed it too!^^

    ༺☆༻

“Y/N, are you comfortable? If you want, you can move a bit.”

“Aw, no... They're being so good right now and it would be a shame if this little buddy came out crooked.” Beelzebub chuckles in response to Bael's soothing words, trying to make you feel more at ease as the king of gluttony carefully marks out the spots on your nipple that he'll soon pierce.

“Easy for you to say, asshole... But I'm the one who's about to lose it with how tightly they're squeezing me.” the fake king growls and smooths his hands down your hips as they sit so prettily on his cock like it's the throne of Abyssos.

When Beel appeared in his country all of a sudden on one fall evening, all Bael had for him was a giant pile of paperwork and a very long list of complaints. Instead of humoring him for at least a few minutes, however, the lord of flies strutted right by him without sparing a glance and deeper into the castle to find you, of all the demons.

“Y/N~! I have a surprise for youu~ huhu!” he sings as he follows the sweet smell of your sweat and perfume.

So that's how you find yourself, currently cockwarming Bael as the king himself officially turns you into a rightful citizen of his country. Out of the many choices you'd been able to pick from, you've chosen a nipple piercing since it's a fun secret to have, but it's also easy to hide from all the other, jealous kings if need be.

“Hmm... Here comes the flysting, you better prepare!” he now chuckles as he finally reaches for the piercing needle and lines it up with the first marked out dot.

“You mean a beesting, shi-mmh!” Bael is about to throw another still-angry remark, but is cut off due to your walls clenching onto him for dear life at the small bit of pain as the sharp needle slides through your flesh.

You've never seen Beel act so gently before as right now that he's carefully sliding your new metal jewellery through the new opening. It only hurts a bit now, but you're already prepared for any pain that will come with healing.

A small trickle of blood travels over your chest down, but the king is quick to lick up the trail and planting multiple playful bites far enough from your nipple to not irritate it any further until it's fully healed. You can't help, but feel your walls flutter at every bite and in turn making the fake king grunt in impatience.

“Huhu, you can move now~! Just be careful to not bounce too hard.” Beel teases with a wink and falls to his knees, fully revelling in the smell of your arousal.

“Hah, fuck, about time now..!” Bael scoffs and immediately starts to pick up a rather rushed pace as much as he's able to in the position you're in. The almost sudden change of state from sitting to being knocked upwards by the sheer force of his thrusts makes every sound escape from your lips.

You're so focused on the noble destroying your hole, that you don't even notice the king moving to fully dive between your legs to lick and suck like a starved man. Once you realise what's going on, you let out the loudest moan, you're sure everyone in the palace knows by now.

All the stimulation blurs your vision and your hands seek anything to ground you so you don't loose your mind, although there are worst ways to achieve that for sure. Going to the source of all the intense pressure, your fingers brush against something slippery and hard. Beelzebub's horn.

To return and also feel more connected to reality, your hand wraps around the slick spike and allows the power of Bael's thrusts to guide your hands movement. Beel thanks you for the action with continuous string of moans, vibrating against you, to match your own. And if you were to look down, you'd see his gorgeous green and golden eyes rolling back.

The only seemingly quiet one in the room is Bael, but that's only because your and the king's moans together cover the sound of the fake king's low growls and grunts.

The whole moment is so heated, with the two demons not giving you much free space between them and all the energy put into your actions, that you body can only deal with it by sweating. The smell of it not going amiss by the two Abyssos kings, helping to bring their release closer and closer.

You're not that far off either. At some point Bael leant backwards slightly, bringing you with him, which only causes him to hit deeper inside you and allowing the starved king better access to wetly slurp at your heated flesh.

Beelzebub can sense your release and can't help but chuckle, sending more vibrations to your sensitive parts. The sole action finally allowing you to reach the most intensive orgasm you've ever felt. In the bliss state your body convulses, making your hand and walls tighten around the two best friends.

Soon enough you can feel the king below you coat your hand with his horn cum and his advisor your walls with his dick cum.

As you're all coming down from your highs and catching your breaths, Bael sharply points at his king, not even having pulled out yet, “Don't think you're off the hook... There's still a mountain of papers you've gotta sign!”

Shhh... Don't worry, I didn't forget about Amodeus and the prompt Shower(as chosen by the vote)! Asmo's will come out a bit later today ^^

Biryani, sopas, at kape

I need to learn how to balance being kind to myself and pushing myself beyond my comfort zone.

It's Sunday again. I planned to start my day early but I guess the fatigue has really caught up to me. Last Wednesday marked my first month here in Elbi, but I still haven't completely adjusted yet. I've been so used to my weekday-weekend routine for the past 8 years; I'd hustle at work from Monday to Friday, then I'd spend my Saturday-Sunday doing errands, lazing out, walking, eating, basta tambay galore lang haha. Now, yung weekends ko apart from personal errands like laundry, I still need to study and do lots of reports. I have anticipated this, though, kaya I really pushed for full-time study leave. Thankfully, it was granted.

This week was good to me although it seemed like a blur. Last Sunday, after Tumblring I did some work then went to the church at 5pm. My foggy mind already forgot the Homily huhuhu, but I remember getting struck by it. Small bump on the road lang yung bland coffee na nabili ko in the eve, but it still powered me through the night writing my lab report about stem cross-section.

Kasoooooo during the Plant Anatomy class on Monday, gagi wala pang 30 seconds na nakatayo ako in front, our Prof already said stop, repeat the lab work because my sample was too old na raw haha! Kinda got stunned but we just laughed it off. We really love how our Prof is so sarcastic and tactless, but so fun and informative. She's not a really great teacher (she's a University Researcher, not exactly a Prof), but she's very good in showing us how to analyze our photomicrographs. You just have to be very quick in taking note of her points, and organizing them later on.

Anyway, after class I really committed to doing overtime for my Plant Anatomy lab works for the rest of the week. I spent my Monday afternoon, whole of Wednesday, whole of Thursday, and half of Friday sampling plants, free-hand sectioning them, staining them, and viewing them under the microscope.

(My workstation for the past days)

Grabe super lula na ako everytime I'd go out of the lab at 5pm haha! But Tita Susan and Sir Jeff are reaaaaaally very accommodating Lab Technicians hehe. Sarap ng spaghetti ni Tita Susan huhu! Mas nakavibes ko rin mga Plant Anatomy classmates ko because of our lab hours.

Super hirap makakuha ng maayos na cross-section hehe, may times din na okay na sana yung sample ko kaso nasisira whenever I fix it on the slide or I stain it and flood it with water huhu! But I really learned a lot. Scared lang of course, kasi di ako naggogloves tas carcinogenic pala yung stains hahaha!

(Some unedited photos of my specimens under the microscope)

I really don't like microscopy haha! Ever since! I also get easily bored inside the lab, gusto ko nasa labas lagi. But perhaps it also stems from my lack of practice. So far, halos nagamay ko na rin yung free-hand sectioning and microscope manipulation. Hindi ako proficient, but I'm still excited to teach my students this new skill.

Last Tuesday also, holiday dito pero we did lab paperwork for our Forest Ecology lab on species mapping. Amazing, yung isa ko palang groupmate ay lowkey lang pero marami nang publications huhu! She's a URA (University Research Associate), taking MS also. Our other groupmate naman is from Baao pala hehe! Tas kapatid din siya ng former student ko. Basta super small world hehe. Our other two groupmates couldn't attend but I hope to know them further din in the coming weeks. Last Thursday afternoon and Friday, we plotted our transect for our lab on forest floor cover. Nakakatuwang matuto from our undergrad groupmates on how to plot the bearings for the transect. Talagang dapat specific yung compass directions, di pwedeng basta basta lang.

(We're actually two groups here. Uso collab ftw hehe!)

May utang pa ako sa kanila huhu! Di ko pa nagagawa yung part ko sa species mapping lab! Why? Because after doing Plant Anatomy labwork last Friday, I prepared naman for our Pisay Bikol Tulong Dunong 2024. I was tasked to teach Scientific Method and Variables to 240 Grade 6 pupils via Google Meet. Nakeri naman hehe, medyo napuyat. I was already dreading having signed up to this tutorial, kasi of course imbes na restmode na I needed to shift my mindset back to being a teacher and prepare materials pa diba.

Oks naman though hehe. Suuuuper fun naman yung naging discussion! I lowkey was kinda scared, I didn't know how to sustain the attention of the Grade 6 kids lalo pa at online tutorial. I did away with the lengthy lectures, I just did some diagrams and planned on giving test drills tas I'd explain them later on. But honestly, whatever I prepared, kulang pa pala haha! I had to do on-the-spot illustrations and explanations of how the Scientific Method was used in understanding the real world. Nachallenge din ang understanding ko! But things went well naman, they were so rowdy sa chatbox kaya I had to turn it off several times, then turn it on kapag I need responses from them. Overall, feel ko nagets naman nila nang maayos yung Scientific Method hehe! Napahaba lang talaga sa explanations, and sa chikahan on the side! They had so many questions about Pisay, and of course I was so willing to respond naman, bilang alumnus.

(Some screenshots)

I hope they enjoyed hehe, kahit na magulo rin ako mag-explain at times. In fairness, sabi naman nila gusto nila ako maging teacher hehe! May Round 2 pa ako though, next Saturday. I'll squeeze Variables and Biology in just 2 hours huhu sana kayanin! Another win for me pala this week was finally being able to go to the gym! Last Tuesday, kahit super busy I really pushed myself to go at lunchtime. Typical bakal gym, pero mura naman and hindi crowded, tas mabait naman yung coach on duty, though they wouldn't really focus on you for the entire time unlike doon sa gym ko back in Goa. Tas yesterday, after the online tutorial nagrest lang ako then late eve I went back. Ngarag!!! Pero kinaya naman hehe. Sobrang tahimik namin kagabi, minding our own routines haha. Hanap ngako gym buddy, para may kausap naman kahit pano. Nevertheless, it's still a win for my personal health!

As for today, I woke up late and super sakit ng katawan because of workout kagabi haha! Then I went to the Sunday Market again, had biryani (sobrang sarap!), finally yung naamoy ko last Sunday natikman ko na now haha! Tas sopas, and laaaaarge coffeeeeee!!! Sobrang nabitin kasi ako sa small cup nila last week haha, kaya nagpalarge ako now kahit pa juice cup yung pinaglagyan nila haha! Nagtakeout din ako sopas para sa housemate ko na jusq hindi pa pala natutulog, dami raw kasing acad work and org work. I was happy na finally nakapagbuy ako ng food for my housemate hehe. Nahihiya ako syempre, kasi yung first 2 weeks na stay ko rito last Aug, hindi na nila ako pinabayad. This Sept na lang daw ang start ng rent ko. Tas parang for the past weeks ang lutang ko and tahimik kaya baka naisip niya galit ako or what haha, pero sa totoo lang sobrang dami lang talagang iniisip. Especially financial!!! Kaya mabuti na rin kahit paano umokay2 na ang financial stance ko now, although marami pang dapat ifix.

Oh, and just as I was writing this, napansin ko nag-emerge na from pupa yung adult moth na iniincubate koooooo!!!!

(L: Improvised rearing chamber; R: newly emerged adult moth)

Naamaze ako, finally being able to observe these. I felt daunted when I collected the larvae and then they started to pupate na kahit nasa plastic pa. Tas nung trinansfer ko sila dito sa rearing chamber, I was lowkey expecting that they would all die. Pero hey, nabuhay!!!

(L: moth larva; R: moth pupa)

Last Saturday also, yung shield bug nymph na inalagaan ko, nagmolt into adult stage after about a week. Amazing!!!

(From the green-colored nymph, to the white-colored molting stage na akala ko nasugatan siya at nagbibleed, to the brown-colored adult stage, soft pa ang exoskeleton at that point)

Ayun na muna siguro for now hehe. At the moment, I still need to do laundry (papalaundry shop na lang kasi laging mahina araw the past weeks, di bumabango handwashed clothes ko). Tas magsisimba rin, and I still need to write 1 lab report for Forest Ecology, 3 lab reports for Plant Anatomy, and 1 proposal for my Special Problems (sobrang napabayaan ko na ito dahil minarathon ko yung Anatomy!). Kaya ko ba? Kayaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

Go go goooo!!!!

Sora Harukawa - Idol Story 2

Author: Yuuki Yoshino

Characters: Sora, Tsumugi

Translator: Mika Enstars

Proofers: 310mc & honeyspades

"Is that why Senpai has a gloomy color? Sora's worried, you know~?"

Season: Spring

Location: Hanging Garden

Sora: HaHa~♪ HiHi~♪ HuHu~♪ HeHe~♪ HoHo~♪

(Ehehe. There are so many beautiful colors all around here, Sora feels like he's on cloud nine! It's sorta like the Garden Space back at Yumenosaki~?)

Tsumugi: Sigh...

Sora: (Hmm? Sora can see a gloomy color coming from over there!)

(Could they be anxious~? Who could be giving off a color like this?)

HaHa~?

...Ah, Senpai! Hello!

Tsumugi: Oh, it's Sora-kun! Hello there~.

Have you come to take a stroll around the Hanging Garden? It's wonderful out today, the perfect weather to take a walk.

Sora: Yes! Sora likes it here~! ♪ Sora comes here a lot, usually before or after work!

What about Senpai? Is he taking a walk too?

Tsumugi: Not quite, I was doing paperwork,but I decided to come out here for some fresh air.

Sora: HiHi~? Is Senpai feeling okay? Senpai is always so busy—kinda like an office worker.

Producer said that Senpai's been staying at the office really late recently!

Is that why Senpai has a gloomy color? Sora's worried, you know~?

Tsumugi: Sora-kun... Really, thank you for your concern.

I don't know whether it's because the goals I give myself are too unrealistic or if it's because I'm too clumsy to do my job correctly, but I always end up finishing late at night.

If I want to get a good night's rest, I need to set a quota that I can complete on-time.

Sora: Yes! Sleep is very important! There's a sofa in the office, how about Senpai sleeps there?

Tsumugi: Ahh, I have tried sleeping there before, but it made me so restless that I immediately woke back up...

And I don't want to fall asleep on the floor and get stepped on by somebody...

Either way, I'm still an idol—at least somewhat.

I’ll feel totally undeserving of being an idol if I behave in a disorderly way in front of the other staff.

Sora: HuHu~? Senpai's an idol with his whole heart and soul, not somewhat, though~? Senpai and Shisho~ are both idols Sora admires...☆

Tsumugi: Fufu. Thank you very much. Then I’ll have to do my very best as an idol for your sake too, Sora-kun.

By the way, Sora-kun, you're here to take a walk around the Hanging Garden, right? Would it be alright if I joined you?

Sora: HeHe~♪ Senpai is most certainly welcome! But, won’t Senpai get tired out taking a stroll with me?

Tsumugi: It's not like we’ll be running all over the place, so you don't have to worry~. ♪

Besides, I've been doing nothing but desk work lately, I could use a little exercise.

Well, to be fair, the ES building does have training rooms, so it's also just a matter of actually putting them to use.

Hmm. Well, they always say there's no time like the present, so maybe I’ll head over there after work.

Sora: Huh~? So Senpai has more work to do after this, too?

Tsumugi: That I do~. Though, that being said, I have already finished all of my most important work for the time being. It should be alright to finish the rest tomorrow.

Sora: HoHo~♪ Then it’s decided! Today, Senpai will come to karaoke with Sora!

Singing at karaoke will make Senpai's stress disappear! And singing and dancing burns calories, so the lack of exercise will be solved too~!

Not long ago, Sora got to go to karaoke with everybody in the ASOBI Club!

Oh, the ASOBI Club is a group that plays different games together every day~!

It seems like some people joined for mental wellness or stress relief, but Sora joined just because it looked fun!

Sora had a bunch of fun singing and dancing~, so he wants to go to karaoke with Senpai, too!

Tsumugi: Wow~, karaoke, huh~? Fufu, that sounds wonderful~! ♪

But, I feel it might be a little lonely with just two people, so is it okay if we invite Natsume-kun to come with us?

Sora: HaHa~♪ Of course!

Tsumugi: Alright then, let me give him a call, then~

Sora: Yes, understood! Sora will go make a karaoke reservation~!

Ehehe, today really is a wonderful day...☆

Can't believe it's been five years since we went to NAIA at exactly midnight (we came via shuttle from Resorts World) to try and ask for fully-funded tickets to New York so I could participate at HPAIR Harvard Conference's Humanitarian Affairs panel as a Top Ambassador—and they have to give me the tickets within 10 days. That wasn't even planned. I just needed to leave Laguna to destress and then meet Momi in Manila. Then we thought, why not take action to get flights now? So that very same night, we rode to the airport using the free transportation from Newport. The ticketing office was closed (haha, I thought it was 24 hours since it's NAIA, but anyway, they were up at 2AM, or 2:30, I forgot now) When they were open, they were shocked that I wasn't there to buy tickets. I was there to ask them for free ones! They said they never heard anything like that before, but they referred us to go to PAL Foundation anyway, in case I still want to push it. So we had a "sleepover" at one of NAIA's benches (I really couldn't sleep, thanks to the sound of airplanes haha), and went to their main office during the day. I emailed first when we found a computer shop. It was awkward because there was no time to schedule...I mentioned my situation, and then I said I'm paying a visit to your office today, if your guards will allow me to. We went there...and after a few calls between the receptionist and the main office, they let us in. That in itself, was a miracle. To be there without an appointment.

I will never forget the time I met Mrs. Candie and Ms. Pinky, they were really kind.

I realised there was so much that had to be done if I were to pursue this. It was actually impossible because they confirmed what the staff at the ticketing office said: no one has been funded for a conference before. They've funded athletes, not delegates. Thankfully, they still interviewed me and I tried sharing my story, and that I'm one of the top three CAs of HPAIR. And they said they would try what they can. I just had to accomplish paperwork like exemption from ITR, etc, then they will present it to President Jaime Bautista. It was a lot to accomplish within a few days. Wew. I know I've heard from others that what I would be trying sounds ridiculous—again, it's never happened before.

But to me, just because it hasn't happened before, doesn't mean it's not possible. I guess that's what they call audacious faith. And I thank God for giving me the kind of trust that asks for big leaps of faith. I remember hearing Himala and just looked at the sky, and at that very moment, I saw an airplane. I smiled a lot and surrendered this endeavour to God. That was a special moment. I felt like that airplane flying right at the same time I heard Himala in front of Mang Inasal Taft reminded me that God's got me, and in 10 days I'll be sitting again somewhere thousands of feet up in the air. So there, my crazy attempt of asking for fully-funded flights.

Spoiler alert: I got it!!! And I got it 11 hours before my flight. Everything was so sudden, so unexpected. It was like shooting for the moon. I got it during President Jaime Bautista's birthday huhue. Thank you po President Bautista!!

I remember on February 10, in the wee hours of the morning, I just came from LB square with my UPMUN fam. We spent February 9 at the Febfair. I thought, I'm making the most of this fair today, because hey, I might be going to Harvard in two days. There was no flight yet. And the conference starts in three days. On the other side of the planet. But there was still hope in me. I thought, okay, this February 10, I'll be going to San Miguel Corporation and ask them to sponsor me. But then, before I slept,

I heard In My Heart, I Know My Savior Lives.

I got chills upon hearing that, and I cried. I was reminded, again, that God's got me. No need to go to San Miguel tomorrow. God has told me to get the rest I need, because hey, I have a flight in two days. I haven't heard from them yet, but still, I'm flying. Claim it!!!

True enough, I woke up to two missed calls from an unknown number. And a text, from Mrs. Candie!! She said that through God's grace (yes, she really mentioned that waaa I feel so kilig) the President has approved my request!! I couldn't believe it. She later called me again and she said she almost cried when the request had been approved. So there I was, crying and thanking God.

On some days the message isn't clear yet, on other days though, His voice is clearer than ever. In my heart, I know my Savior lives. And it's that Savior who told me to stop making efforts to get funded already, because it's coming. It's about time I trust Him to do the work. As the line goes, "when you do what you can, God will do what you can't."

Sometimes, all that God wants us to do is to trust and wait. And it can be uncomfortable, because we feel like we need to do something to make things happen. But when God asks us to sit still and let Him move, it's a great opportunity to deepen our faith in Him.

Thank You, Lord Jesus Christ, for authoring this story. Your works and miracles never fail to amaze me. You deserve all the glory <3

PS. After that Harvard Conference, I'm grateful to hear that other HPAIR delegates in the succeeding conferences received flight discounts, too! Yay!! Thank you PAL Foundation!! Continue supporting our passionate learners and dreamers. :)

Dati tuwing may mag aask ano ba gusto kong specialization, lagi kong sinasabi na cardio ang gusto ko because heart is my passion. Cheka then I got to meet ECG tracing interpretation na never ko na ata magegets nung first year at internal medicine subjects na sobrang daming subspecialty nung third year, which made me doubt kung kaya ba talaga ng brain cellz ko magmaganda siz. Hmm. Until now torn pa rin naman ako sa cardio, derma, family medicine, and most recent nga yung ophtha. As much as possible I’d like to keep an open mind kasi gusto kong maenjoy and matuto sa every single rotation that we will have this clerkship year. Sobrang amazing lang ng medicine, theres just so much to learn! And yes, I really love learning, pero I despise studying for the grades with all my heart (cos it makes me super anxious and it takes all the fun out of learning)! So imagine yung fascination ko nung first time akong makanood ng laparoscopic cholecystectomy during our surgery rotation, nung first time akong nagdeliver ng placenta at nag assist sa cesarean delivery during ob rotation, nung first time akong nag assist ng tonsillectomy.. If you are also the type na masaya tuwing may natututunang something new, then I’m pretty sure that you will enjoy taking up medicine! Pero I think what makes medicine a lot less enjoyable is when you happen to end up in such a toxic environment where everyone seems to be sad and angry and miserable. It will surely take a toll on your mental health and your overall quality of life, so it’s really important to choose the right kind of environment that fits your personality. Anyway ang gusto ko lang naman talaga ikwento ay yung first day ko sa IM rotation, sorry sobrang dami na nitong segway. :))

First day palang pero parang gusto ko nang umiyak. Try not to cry challenge po ang pamaskong handog satin for this december, brought to you by IM rotation. Huhu sobrang grateful ko lang kay Guia kasi just when I was about to cry, she handed me candies tapos good luck candies daw yun. Thank you Lord for kind souls 🥺 Imagine night shift kami on our first day. Right after the endorsement, kakarating ko palang pero nag code na agad ang pasyente ko. I also had 17 patients for vital signs monitoring, sobrang grateful lang din kay Karen Joy kasi kinuha na nya yung dalawa kong pasyente. Plus admitting team pa kami so I had to take complete history and physical exam of my patient. We were also assigned paperworks such as course in the ward and discharge summaries during that shift, pero siz idk kung inefficient palang ba ako or di na talaga kaya ng time so we had to do this during our off. Then just few minutes before our 7AM off, may nagcode na namang another pasyente under our team huhu. Right after our 12-hour duty, hindi pa rin uwian kasi meron pang admission conference so we had to stay for three more hours. I was informed that our group will be the presenting group for our first ever adcon this IM rotation, pero I had no idea na ako lang pala mag isa magppresent in front of our consultants, residents, PGIs, and co-clerks??? ??? Pagod na pagod na ako mga mhie. Yung anxiety ko biglang umabot ng moon nung sinabi ng PGI ko na ako lang daw mag isa ko presenter, just few minutes before the adcon. Sobrang asdgjaafahjaagda!!! Legit gusto ko na talaga magpatawas. Anyway huhu after akong mabigyan ng candies ni Guia, sobrang kumalma na ang pechay ko so naitawid naman ang first on the spot gulatan adcon on my first duty this IM rotation ❤️ Hindi rin ako napagalitan ng seniors namin kahit super bano pa ako mag physical exam, pero need ko pa raw magpractice so thats what I’m gonna focus on this weekend.

Praying for more learnings, endurance, proper diskarte and time management, and emotional regulation skillz this month, Father God 🙏🏻

Good luck candies from Guia saved the day 🥰

The Way to a Man’s Heart (Ignis x Reader)

wow i kept putting this off for some reason, but hello cooking mama iggy!!!! yay!!!! lowkey unconfident about this bc i don’t think i executed it well but uh haha stab me

will this be expanded into a two-part story? or will it remain a one shot? whO KNowS

(Also, thanks so much for all the love for Shortcake vs. Beefcake ;___; I didn’t consider it to be one of my better works, so for it to have received this much love has been such a pleasant surprise huhu thanks ebribadi wah)

word count: 3.5k+, fluff + self-deprecation because wow i relate so much to self-hate, Prompto likes to think he’s Cupid haha sure keep telling urself that boye

‘Take cooking lessons, they said.’ You stared helplessly at your burnt attempt at a chicken cordon bleu. ‘It’ll be fun, they said.’ Discreetly shoving the charred poultry down the garbage, you sighed longingly at everyone else’s pristine and mouth-watering dishes. ‘How is it fun when everything I make is inedible?’

Boy, if any of your classmates from high school saw you now, they might possibly throw a fit at the sight of you. Or maybe they’d look at you in awe.

After all, you were never really one for the kitchen.

Sure, you loved food — probably more than the average girl, even — but all you could do was devour dishes that were presented to you. For you to actually prepare something meant for human consumption was easily a recipe for disaster.

Which was why you were here, taking a culinary class in hopes of acquiring even a smidgen of an everyday man’s cooking skill.

But, let’s be real here: you could have lived the rest of your days perfectly content with being a failure in the kitchen. It’s not like you had any ambitions of becoming a chef or anything.

The true reason behind your ongoing efforts in trying to learn how to cook lies in a sole secret ingredient — one that is integral in your current woes as of late: Ignis Scientia.

Now, you were never really one to go to such great heights just to impress someone — let alone a member of the opposite sex — but Ignis was different. Here was a man in an entirely other league of his own. He was refined, patient, kind-hearted, and one of the most well-mannered men you ever had the blessed opportunity to encounter.

Not only did Ignis have the charms to go with his elegant face, he was also incredibly skilled — almost famously so, at least amongst his peers — in the kitchen. You’d probably go so far as to say his concoctions could rival — even best — the foods provided by the royal chef.

(Not that you knew what His Majesty and his son would have for their daily meals. You just believed that Prince Noctis requesting for a certain pastry from Ignis — and Ignis alone — was telling enough of the Royal Adviser’s skills in the kitchen.)

So here you were, struggling to cook up something in order to catch Ignis’ attention and impress him for once. Unfortunately, despite your wholesome intentions, your efforts were simply failing to bear any fruit.

‘I might end up burning my apartment down if I keep up with this,’ you thought glumly, already packing away your belongings as your cooking teacher gave you an unimpressed look for yet another cooking disaster this week.

‘Don’t worry.’ You gave your instructor a nod in farewell. ‘This is the last you’ll see of me in this blasted class.’

The very idea of taking up culinary lessons as a step towards getting Ignis to look your way was actually a suggestion from your friend Prompto. On one of your rare mutual breaks — yours from assisting other staff members with admin work and archiving documents for the royal family, his from Crowsguard training with Cor the Immortal — the two of you had stumbled upon Ignis himself, who was well on his way to a meeting with the King and the rest of his council.

“Hey, Specs!” Prompto greeted cheerfully with a wave of his hand.

“Good to see you, Prompto,” replied the bespectacled man. Ignis turned to you and offered a curt nod of acknowledgement.

All you could do was reciprocate his nod, already feeling your cheeks burn — a usual occurrence whenever you were near Ignis. While this was not the first time you had encountered the Royal Adviser in the flesh — as you would sometimes assist him with research and paperwork when necessary — being around him often made you feel shy and flustered. It was a miracle that you had yet to pass out from the effect he had on you.

“Where are you off to?” Prompto inquired.

Adjusting his grip on the small stack of folders in his arms, Ignis answered, “I’ve a meeting with His Majesty. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I best be on my way.”

It was only when Ignis turned a corner did you release a breath you hadn’t known you were even keeping. ‘He’s so handsome,’ you thought to yourself, clutching at your chest from how fast your heart raced around him.

Prompto looked at you oddly. Although some would think him to be a bit more on the naive side, the young blond liked to think that he was actually much more observant than the people around him would give him credit for. Perhaps that was why he detected your odd behavior in front of his friend.

Or maybe your crush on Ignis was just that obvious.

In any case, Prompto took notice of how tense you had become in the presence of his friend, as he placed a hand on your shoulder and gave a comforting squeeze. “Hey, you alright? I know Iggy might seem a little intimidating, but he’s actually a fun person to be around once you get to know him.”

“N-no, I…” you mumbled, keeping your eyes on the floor. “I know. He’s just- I’m…”

“Haha, you sound just like me when I tried asking this girl from school on a date!”

“Y-yeah, hah…”

“There’s no need to be so shy around good ol’ Iggy!” Prompto gave you a friendly pat on the back. “He might look like a strict professor on the outside, but on the inside, he’s just like you and me.”

“Uh-huh…”

“Well, except we’re plebes next to him, but you know. I’m sure you’d like him a lot once you got to know him better.”

“I DO NOT HAVE A CRUSH ON IGNIS SCIENTIA!”

Okay, you were definitely obvious about your crush on the Royal Adviser.

“Woah, what?”

Your face was probably burning brighter than the sun by now. How could you have suddenly blurted — practically yelled loud enough for the entire Citadel to hear, oh gods —your deep, dark secret? Your head must have been in the clouds while Prompto was talking, and in your carelessness, you somehow interpreted his words as an accusation of harboring feelings for Ignis.

Which… well, cat’s outta the bag now, then.

“I-I…!” The embarrassment becoming too much to bear, you hid behind your hands, mumbling into your palms, “I didn’t say anything!”

“Honey, you most definitely said something, and it was a little along the lines of-“

“SHUT UP!” You slapped your hands over Prompto’s mouth in a frenzy. “Someone might hear!”

Pulling your hands away from his face, he replied, “With how loud you were, I wouldn’t be surprised if even Noct heard you from his bedroom.”

You groaned. “Prompto, please don’t say anything to Ignis about this.”

Your friend’s face scrunched up in confusion. “Why not? I’m sure Iggy would be really flattered. Plus, you guys would make a really cute couple!”

“That’s really nice of you to say and all, but I’d rather keep my feelings to myself, thank you very much.”

“Yeah, but I’m a great matchmaker!”

You snorted. “Sure, Cupid.”

“I am!” Prompto whined. “Stop laughing! I’ll get you two together if it’s the last thing I do!”

“No, Prompto, please don’t,” you said. “It’s really nothing against you, I promise. It’s just…” You tucked a hair behind your ear, staring longingly at the direction Ignis had disappeared to. “I wouldn’t want to pressure Ignis into anything by informing him of my… c-crush on him.” Crush? What a schoolgirl term. Surely you were beyond this already, right?

“You wouldn’t-“

Completely caught up in your thoughts, you ignored Prompto and continued. “Confessing would just make things awkward, especially since I know he doesn’t reciprocate my feelings. He already has so much on his plate as it is, so I don’t want to make things uncomfortable between us if I ever do decide to confess.” As an afterthought, you added, “Which I won’t, mind you. It’ll never happen.”

This had always been your mindset right off the bat. Why would you ever tell Ignis how you truly felt about him? It would just be another burden for him to bear, and that was the last thing you ever wanted to be to him.

“But,” Prompto said after a few seconds of silence, “are you really content with never telling him how you feel? Ever?”

When you really thought about it… of course you wouldn’t be content. However, living in silence seemed like a much safer option than getting into messy feelings and affections. Plus, unrequited feelings were definitely a more tolerable reality than the bitter sting of rejection.

You shrugged. “It doesn’t matter. His duty to Prince Noctis will always be his top priority, and I respect that. So even if I did happen to confess, I really don’t think it’d take me anywhere with Ignis.”

Amidst your wistful admissions was a frown on Prompto’s face that you failed to perceive. “Well…” he trailed off. “Well, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t at least try to get Iggy to look at you the way you look at him!”

“What are you playing at, Prompto?”

“What if you just… try to woo Iggy a little, (Name)?”

“Woo him?” You gave Prompto an incredulous look. “As if I even have a chance with him to begin with!”

“But you do!” Prompto insisted. “I promise that you do! We just need a little somethin’-somethin’ to tip the scales and get the ball rolling.”

“Okay, I’ll humor you. What, pray tell, would your plan of action be to,”—you made quotation marks with your fingers—“‘get the ball rolling’?”

Prompto hummed thoughtfully before suddenly snapping his fingers. “I know exactly what you can do!” Giving you a proud smile, he declared, “You can cook him something!”

You stared at Prompto for a solid few seconds, causing him to falter slightly in his expression. “Or bake him a cake or something…?” he added unsurely.

“You’re joking, right?”

“N-No! I’m serious!”

“Prompto.”

“What? Why are you looking like me like that?”

“I can’t cook to save a life.”

“C’mon, everyone can cook!”

“Not me,” you deadpanned. “I’m serious. I once burned a scrambled egg.”

“That’s not so bad-“

“The heat was on low and I found eggshells in it.”

“Okay, maybe you’ll need a little help. But that’s what I’m here for!”

You raised a brow. “You’re going to help me cook Ignis something?”

“Well, n-no…” Prompto chuckled nervously at the disapproving look you were wearing. “But! I know where you can take cooking classes!”

“Prompto, I know you mean well and all, but cooking classes? I’m pretty swamped with work as it is.”

“You can go after work! They have evening sessions that run an hour a day. It even includes baking lessons!”

“I can’t possibly cook anything for him. Ignis has the taste buds of a god!”

“All the more reason to make him something he’s never had before!” Prompto countered. “You know what they say: ‘The way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.’ I betcha Iggy’ll love whatever you make him!” He was not going to let this go until you conceded, was he?

“I dunno…”

“C’mon (Name), don’t you want to show him what you have to offer? Make him see the wife material that you are?”

The wiggling of Prompto’s brows made you chuckle. “I’m hardly wife material.”

“And she’s so humble, too!” he cheered, pulling another giggle out of you. “It’ll be fun, (Name)!”

“Why are you so adamant about this, anyway?”

The grin on Prompto’s face softened into a warm smile. “I just want to see my friends happy, that’s all.”

If Prompto hadn’t won you over before, he definitely did now. This boy was truly an angel.

So that’s how you found yourself struggling to whip up a dish or two after work everyday. Everyday you came to class without fail, but also without fail was the stench of an actual failed dish after each session. Despite this, the encouraging looks Prompto always sent you whenever you chanced upon each other always inspired you to keep on going. Though you had called it quits on the cooking classes, it didn’t mean you couldn’t practice on your own, right?

*

It took a while, but the day finally came: you managed to make a seemingly decent platter of cupcakes. Baking was different from cooking, sure, but at least you finally made something even remotely edible. You had heeded Prompto’s suggestion of baking a cake, except you opted for a much simpler and smaller scale.

It only took about a month of daily trials and errors, but finally, you were able to produce a simple batch without killing yourself in the process. You even managed to put some pink frosting for a cute touch!

‘I’ll let Prompto taste test this first!’ you thought excitedly, scurrying towards where you knew your blond friend trained with the Marshal.

In your hurry to find Prompto, you failed to notice a presence making their way towards your direction. As you turned a corner, you accidentally bumped into the one and only Ignis himself — the very reason for the platter of dessert in your hands.

Alas, good fortune just wasn’t on your side today, though. Typically, bumping into Ignis would be a blessing in disguise. Today, however, it brought more distress than elation, because you lost your grip on the platter, causing the cupcakes to tumble to the ground with a generous smother of pink icing all over the Royal Adviser.

“Ignis!” you exclaimed, hands trembling at the mess you made. “I’m so- I’m sorry!”

You couldn’t read his face as he kept a stoic mask even after your collision. Ignis was often hard to decipher even on a regular day, but this time around, you were certain that he was unhappy with your stumble. His usually pristine clothes were now ruined by pink frosting, and his shoes were covered with the broken remnants of all your hard work.

Your hard work. You had slaved over this batch — the one you deemed the most acceptable out of the many others you had attempted — only for it to crumble before you. You didn’t even get to have Ignis try it.

Helplessly, you stared at what was meant to be a gift of affection for the man in front of you. Somehow, the sight of the disintegrated pastries brought forth a deep-seated frustration within you that served as a painful reminder that this wasn’t going to work out.

Who were you kidding? As if Ignis would ever go for someone like you. Baking or cooking or whatever, you would never amount to even half the person he deserved to be with. No matter how much effort you put into your work, everything will still fall apart — even something with Ignis.

‘What’s the point?’ you thought, downcast and discouraged. ‘No matter how hard I try, I’ll never be good enough for him anyway. I’ll still fail.’

You forced yourself to meet Ignis’ eyes in order offer another heartfelt apology, but the sigh that escaped his lips only triggered the appearance of tears in your own eyes. Now you knew for sure that he was definitely upset with you.

With your blurred eyesight thanks to your tears, you missed the look of what appeared to be panic on Ignis’ face. Bowing your head to avoid looking at him any further, you mumbled a pathetic “sorry, excuse me” before making yourself scarce.

Ignis was quite the sight when Prompto found him just a minute later, frozen in place and covered in pink.

*

‘I am an IDIOT,’ you thought miserably as you dragged yourself to work the next day. After your disappearing act on Ignis, you pretty much beat yourself up for reacting so brashly at your own slip-up. ‘Crying over a few measly cupcakes? Then running away? REALLY? Nice one, drama queen.’

“I bet the cupcakes weren’t even that good,” you grumbled, placing your things on your work desk and settling into your seat. You began to shuffle through some files that were left neglected just a day before, still a bit tense at your recollection of yesterday’s unfortunate collision.

“On the contrary,” a voice in front of you said, “they were actually quite delectable.”

Your eyes widened. Lifting your head from your papers, you found Ignis in front of you. He offered a charming smile to go with his nod.

“I-Ignis!” You shot up in surprise. “Wha… What are you doing here?”

“Am I not allowed to greet a friend good morning?”

“No! I-I mean…” You cleared your throat as you nervously wrung your fingers together. “You’re allowed! You can do whatever you want! Um, I, I mean… Good morning…?

He chuckled softly. “Good morning.”

It was then did you realize that Ignis was holding a small box in his hand. Pointing at the object, you inquired, “What’s that?”

“This?” He held up the box before gently placing it on your desk. “This is a gift for you.”

“M-Me?” you repeated dumbly. Ignis Scientia — THE Ignis Scientia — had a gift for you?!

Ignis adjusted the glasses on his face before continuing. “It is an apology of sorts for causing yesterday’s mishap.”

“Th-that was all my fault!” you sputtered. “I’m the one who’s sorry, Ignis! I ruined your clothes and then I ran away like a crybaby…”

“I’d like to apologize for the tears, then,” he countered.

“No!” you blurted anxiously. “You weren’t at fault! It was all me!”

“Regardless, you would do me a great honor in accepting this gift.”

You stared at the box. “Really?”

“Most certainly,” he assured. “Please, go ahead.”

Upon his insistence, you gingerly picked up the box, feeling a moderate weight inside. When you opened it, you were pleasantly surprised to find a cupcake — one that was identical to the ones you made yesterday, pink frosting and all.

Taking advantage of your silence, Ignis said, “Yesterday was quite the tragedy, wouldn’t you agree? What a waste it was for all the pastries to go spoilt in such a manner. I at least managed to try the icing, since there was an… abundance of it, as you know.”

You blushed, recalling just how much frosting you managed to get on him yesterday. Ignis let out a small smile, as if assuring you that he meant no harm with his comment. “I tried to replicate the taste to the best of my abilities, though I hope you can forgive me for taking the liberty to give my own take on the batter, seeing as I had no basis for what you made yourself.”

“Tha-that’s fine,” you breathed, awe-struck that Ignis had even bothered to make you anything, let alone try to copy your own take on a lame cupcake. Although you were squirming a bit under his gaze, you managed to offer a sincere smile. “Thank you.”

Ignis nodded in response. “I must say,” he uttered, “the icing reminded me of you a bit.”

“It did?” you asked, a little absent-minded at the fact that not only was Ignis making casual conversation with you, he had actually made something for you — and in the same fashion as what you had intended to give to him, at that! What exactly was happening here?!

“Yes,” he affirmed. “It was rather… sweet.”

“O-oh!” You could feel your face burning up at this point.

“I mean that in the highest of praises possible,” Ignis added. “If you’d like, perhaps we could discuss your recipe over a cup of Ebony?”

You gaped. Did he just…? Was he offering…? IS HE ASKING YOU OUT ON A DATE?! “Y-ye-yeah! Sure!” you squeaked, belatedly realizing how stupid you must have looked with your mouth wide open in such an un-ladlylike manner.

“Excellent.” The smile on Ignis’ face grew saccharine, and it made you flush to the tips of your ears. “Will you be free tomorrow afternoon, then?”

You did a quick mental scan of your schedule. All free. “Yes.”

“Then I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Dazed, all you could do was wave at Ignis as he made his exit. Did that really just happen? Are you really going to have coffee with Ignis tomorrow? Sure, he didn’t really specify outright that it was a date, but…

‘Wait till Prompto hears about this!’

*

“Well?”

“She seemed to be delighted at the prospect of Ebony tomorrow.”

“I told you!”

“Shouldn’t you meet with the Marshal for training now?”

“Aw c’mon, Iggy! You gotta spill all the juicy details!”

“My lips are sealed.”

“After everything I did to get you two together?”

“You did no such thing.”

“Iggy! I am hurt!”

“I’m merely jesting. Thank you, Prompto.”

“You’re very welcome! I told you she liked you back!”

“I’ll be sure to express my gratitude to you in the form of some Meldacio Meat Pie.”

“This is why I love you, Iggy.”

“I’m afraid your feelings remain one-sided.”

“Of course they are. You’ve always had your eye on her, after all.”

Silence.

“Iggy, is that…? Are you blushing?!”

“Ahem.”

“L-Lemme get this shot!”

“Excuse me, I must make my leave now.”

“Iggy, hold up! IGGY!”

[daeva-agas]

For funsies I designed Takakage to be the “froo froo beautiful type”, but then I thought he’d actually be the one chasing Terumoto around like “BRAT, WHERE ARE YOU GOING YOU HAVE BATTLE TRAINING, LIKE, RIGHT NOW”

Apparently it’s true? The one who’s always yelling at Terumoto is Takakage, no Motoharu LOL... It’s funny that my completely bullshit fantasies sometimes turns out to be true, hahaha.

Takamoto likes art and gets yelled at by Motonari a lot. Eh. But he’s very good at paperwork stuff. Ah, there’s always one of those in every family. 

Huh, apparently the three brothers aren’t very close. It’s just that because of the nonsense three arrows story, people ended up having the completely wrong mental image. Although... actually the “reality” is close to the story. It’s because they have a bad relationship that Motonari had to tell them “BY GOD, I ORDER YOU THREE TO GET ALONG, OR ELSE”. And of course it happened much earlier, because Motonari outlived Takamoto. 

And then after poor Takamoto dies they’re like “huhu we’re sorry we didn’t appreciate you enough bro” :v Family drama is so fun to read about.

Hello, I'd like to request RFA reacting + Minor Trio reacting to Lawyer!MC. Keep up the great work, your posts are really enjoyable to read!

Everything written below is based on the K-drama Suspicious Partner and Legally Blonde :)) Huhu sorry guys, I’m really not familiar with this one but I tried my best ;;; I’m assuming MC is a criminal defense lawyer, I hope you like it! ^^

Note: To any lawyers/future lawyers out there please don’t hate me hahaha and feel free to correct my mistakes :))

Yoosung

W H O A

Respect

He saves animals while you put the bad guys behind bars

Yoosung is really proud of you and is your number one supporter

He gets interested in your job and browses through your law books when he has free time

Remember, Yoosung is really smart

So one day when you’re telling him about a case you’re handling

He totally understands all your law terms and he can keep up with everything, even asking questions or citing certain cases

And you are more in-love with him more than ever

Because this guy not only took interest in what you did, he learned about it so he can understand you better

When you’re stressed with work, he cooks you something nice and even makes you coffee for when you have to work late

He always makes it a point to pick you up from work since you finish later than him

And if he sees that you’re overwhelmed with work, he tries to help you

He really looks up to you and he loves that you’re trying to make the world a safer place

But he makes sure you guys have dates every now and then and makes sure you don’t live on instant noodles and 4 hours of sleep everyday

Zen

He’s played a lawyer before but he still wants to know everything about what you do

And he loves that you’re so dedicated to your job and he can see how hard you work

Just like him

He can watch you talking to yourself about your case and debating with yourself for days

Honestly, Zen loves watching you work

He goes to one of your trials and he just loves how brilliant you are and how confident you are

When he gets free time, he studies up on your cases and pretends to be the other lawyer or the judge so you can practice your arguments

And at first it you just laughed at him because he’s so cute and adorable and supportive

But when you guys get into it, you realize how good Zen is as a lawyer/judge

Lol he watched a LOT of court dramas just so he can pull this off

And his arguments actually made sense so you got a chance to prepare for other angles of the case

Your female co-workers would always swoon over him when he visits you or picks you up from the office

He always reminds you to be careful and he worries endlessly over you

But he loves the fact that his girlfriend is so smart and badass

Jumin

He can respect that you want to continue working despite not needing the money anymore

Because you truly wanted to do what’s right and help other people

He would, of course, help you in any way he can

This guy is very powerful and has a lot of connections so if you needed information, you will have it

Insists that you have a bodyguard with you at all times because he knows lawyers can get threats too

You work as hard as he does so you two barely get enough sleep

He sets up a home office for you so you can continue working at home; Jumin doesn’t like it when you stay late at your office

And when you lose track of time and stay in the office past midnight

He will pick you up personally and carry you home if he has to

He’d watch you in court when his schedule will allow it and he will glow with pride at his wife in action

He knows about law of course, but reads up on criminal law so he can understand you better

And you often see him slumping against the headboard of your bed with one of your law books in his hands, his eyes closed

He’s very much enamored with you and always takes you out for celebratory dinners whenever you win your cases

Saeyoung

Oh my God his girlfriend defends people in court

He totally wants you on his side

Especially when Vanderwood comes over and starts nagging him

And you come to his defense and Vanderwood would always lose the argument

Of course, you also put the bad guys in jail

Ehem he’s a hacker ;;;

Not that he’s a bad person, it’s just he’s done a lot of illegal bad things for his job

You accept him and love him all the same

And he helps you in any way he can

“MC, I can hack into his laptop for you~”

“Saeyoung, no”

Whenever you have to go to the crime scene to investigate or meet up with potential leads, he makes sure to watch you through CCTV cameras

You bring home so much paperwork ;;; Saeyoung can’t really cook for you but he buys you decent meals and drags you away from work (LITERALLY) just so he can feed you~

You have come home to him dressed in your corporate attire more than once

Never misses an opportunity to use legal jargon with you

“Saeyoung, are you wearing my shoes?”

“Careful MC, false allegations can get you in trouble~”

“…Saeyoung.”

He would grin and swivel in his chair, showing you his feet

“Alright, guilty as charged,” he would say, grinning

“You have to admit though, I look good in your shoes.” 😉

Jihyun/V

He’s more into the creative stuff —photography, the arts, performance arts, music —but he will learn as much as he can about your job

He’s a very good listener and he pays attention to every detail whenever you tell him about your case or rant about your job

But he can tell you’re very passionate about what you do

And he will always try to support you

He attends most of your trials and you see him give you encouraging smiles whenever you look in his direction

Also has an album in his phone of you in action and you keep wondering how he manages to get good angles of you

You take clients who have been wrongly accused and your goal is to clear their name, at the same time try to find the culprit

V accompanies you to client meetings and as he listens to your conversation with your client, he finds himself more drawn to you

Because you have such a good heart and pure intentions

He’s so lucky to have someone like you as his girlfriend

You work hard and always end up bringing work home

He always makes you a cup of coffee or hot chocolate and plays soothing music in the background

When it’s past midnight and you’re still working, he will persuade you to go to bed with him

And if you insist on staying up

He will legit carry you into his arms and shower you with kisses and hold you in his arms until you fall asleep

He understands hard work, but he won’t let you value work over your health

Saeran

Researches what being a criminal defense lawyer is

Asks you questions about your job every now and then

You’re actually a pretty good lawyer and he comes across several articles of the cases you’ve won and innocent people you’ve freed

And Saeran’s respect and adoration for you grows

You’re working on a new case where your client is someone who got framed and you’re trying to prove his innocence

When you get threats from an “anonymous” person telling you to drop the case you’re currently working on

He realizes that your job isn’t as safe as he thought it was

And he gets mad

You have to calm him down and make sure he doesn’t do anything that would land him in jail ;;;

Saeran becomes your bodyguard, making sure to send you to work and pick you up afterwards

He doesn’t tell you but he also uses his hacking skills to look for the killer

And the evening before the trial, you receive a usb containing surveillance footage of the murder

You win your case and the killer gets a life sentence

And when you come home you kiss Saeran’s cheek

You tell him all about the trial and he smiles, seeing how happy you are

Neither of you acknowledge the USB, but you know it was him and he’s just glad he was able to help you keep the bad guys off the street

Vanderwood

He’s not supposed to exist or have relationships

But when you guys fall in-love and he discovers you’re a criminal defense lawyer and your goal is to put as much bad people in jail as possible…

Baby if only you knew how many people I’ve killed with my gloved hands ;;;;

But you love him all the same

You guys would get into arguments a lot, mainly because Vanderwood would push you away

He feels guilty that you’re with him, a criminal, when your job is putting criminals in jail and letting the innocent ones walk free

He doesn’t want you to go against your morals for him, he feels like he doesn’t deserve it

You don’t believe he’s a bad person though

And you stand by your decision to love him

You volunteer to be his lawyer in case anything ever goes wrong

But since he doesn’t technically ‘exist’, there’s nobody there to sue him

The people in his line of work would probably kill him than sue him ;;;

He makes sure you’re always safe though

Because you get threats a lot

Vanderwood cooks you decent meals whenever you work late and he will carry you to bed when you fall asleep on the table on top of your notes

Teaches you basic self defense in case he has to go away for a mission and can’t be there to protect you

He gives you his taser too, just in case

Finally, January is over.

January is so heavy for me. Dec 31 palang I was crying because of breast pain. I had engorgement && clogged milk ducts. It was really painful & it feels like nobody understands the pain. I tried everything I googled and what other breastfeeding moms suggested, but the pain continued. I even consulted to Breastfeeding consultant but she advised me to go to OB because I already have Mastisis. That was January 5. So within the day I scheduled check up online & OB prescribed me antibiotics & pain reliever for 10 days. I thought it was getting better since lumalambot na yung breast ko but my problem is, my baby stopped latching. I dunno why. Maybe because the taste changed or because it's hard to latch due to inflimmation. So my breast became bigger & full & expressing didn't work. It got more painful. On the 7th day, I went to Clinica Antipolo for OB assessment but she already referred me to Surgeon as it already has abscess :((((((( I was really sad & scared, but I know I have to do the operation to finally stop the pain & start recovering as I need to go back to work this Feb.

Jan18. Together with my hubby, we went to Surgeon. He checked my right breast & said it needs to be treated right away. It's an emergency operation. He asked her secretary to help us in processing our admission & he'll be waiting in the operating room. I was shookt like, what??? Now na talaga??? But I was being optimistic that finally it will get better after the procedure. That was 5:30, & 6:30 I was already in the operationg room!! There were 6 nurses, the surgeon & the anesthesiologist. And I dunno how the anesthesia started. But it feels like in a blink of an eye, I already woke up & the procedure was done.

---

I woke up in a room full of light, and there's a nurse behind me doing some paperworks, but seems waiting for me to wake up. Everything was blurred but I was trying to stable my eyes as I wanted to confirm if I was just dreaming or I already woke up. And taduh, the nurse askes me if it hurts & I said makirot. He injected me pain reliever, then brought me to my room.

Everything was blurred, I was still drogy. My hubby & mama were asking me question I really didn't understand. I was just looking at them til my dad told them to let me rest & stop asking me as I'm still dizzy.

---

The next day I woke up, I still feel dizzy but really missed our sons.

I was trying but look how hilong talilong I was! Hehe.

---

But it didn't end there. The doctor thought there was only one abscess but when he checked, there were 3. He told my husband that it's torture for me if he will cut 3 areas in my breast so he instead put 3 rubber drain to infected areas connected to one rubber drain open to my breast. He wanted to make sure that all the pus will come out & wait until the abscess stopped in producing. So there was an open wound with a visible rubber drain (connected to three rubber drains inside my breast) where the pus will come out. He told us that we can already go home & he taught my hubby how to massage the breast to release the pus & how to clean the wound & how to put gauze & bandage.

---

Our bill was 70k for 2 days but thankful for Company's Healthcard! We only paid 1600 💗

Look how big my room was. Plus the good service, kind nurses & doctors, & not to mention the good food! Really grateful for 1600 cash out!

---

After a week, we came back to his clinic. There, he removed the rubber drain. I thought it would be painful since there was no anesthesia given, but taduh!!! I didn't even feel he already removed it huhu thank you doc! What a light hand!

&& now I'm still in the process of healing since I still have open wound but I feel it, I'm almost done & everything is going back to normal. I've been praying for this.

I was traumatized to breastfeeding. I just wanted to give the best for my child but why I have to experience that kind of severe pain? :(((

When I carry my baby Rion, sometimes I want him to latch as I miss it. But I am afraid. I chose to accept the fact that maybe breastfeeding is not for me. Maybe I failed again for my 2nd child. Our breastfeeding journey has ended.

But it's okay. It's okay because I did my best. And breastfeeding is not the basis of being a good mother.

There's a lot more sacrifices for my sons but I know it's worth it.

10. And lastly, to Kristian Castilla. It was a nice roller coaster ride with you. Maybe sometimes we were always at the bottom having a lot of problems during our relationship, but we still made everything to turn out right. I can’t believe that its already the end of our story. But you’ll always have a special place in my heart no matter what. I’ll never forget the days of our relationship and all the memories that we shared. It may tough but I will always love you..
