Hi guys~! ⛅👋
Long time no see! Much longer than I ever intended, in fact. Truth be told, I wanted to make a public post sooner, but I've had a lot to catch up on in terms of notifications and messages since logging back in a few days ago. I've also made some changes that I will address shortly, but first of all I wanted to thank those of you who have reached out with so much care and understanding during my absence. Adjusting has been a slow and fragile process for me -still is-, and I sadly haven't responded directly to everyone yet because of it, but I wanted to say how much I appreciate your patience and support nonetheless. 🥹 🙏
Long story short, I was gone for five months due to a huge burnout, then progressively found my spark again somewhere along the way and have since mostly recovered. It was my wonderful friend @drones-of-innocence who reached out to me outside of Tumblr, and her sense of initiative is largely the reason why I managed to make this post in a somewhat reasonable delay. 😅💖 With that said however, I must also mention that I've deleted a lot of stuff from my page and have removed most of my work from the public eye as well. This may seem quite drastic and frankly a little unsettling, but I assure you that it was a thoroughly considered and reasoned decision! The thing is that I was still getting lots of notes on these drawings everyday and… To put it simply, I didn't want that anymore. 🙇‍♀️ Experiencing popularity was very detrimental to me in the long run and I needed to put an end to it for the sake of my own wellbeing; at least for now.
Which brings me to my next point.
After mulling it over for a while, I've decided that I would not be returning as an active creator in the Mario community this time around. 👐 Making fanart for this franchise (with such a high and continuously maintained degree of involvement) had a lot to do with my health's decline and I've come to realize that I wanted to direct my focus elsewhere going forward. For that reason, there are things which I know will never be repeated again in the future, both in regards to my art and online presence in general, but that's alright. Things change, as they do and should. I'm looking forward to reuniting with folks and would be very happy to stay in touch with those of you who wish to message me privately. Like my lovely pal @istadris said, what matters most about any fandom are the friends you make in it. ☺️
And speaking of which-
Tumblr media
@ody-and-fanatu That's so sweet of you, thank you! 💗 I'm glad you've enjoyed my contribution to the fandom. It was fun while it lasted! 💫 My visual ideas may be gone from my page, but most of my written posts and replies are still there for anyone who wants to revisit those at least, so there's that! And I'd also like to answer some of the asks I still have in my inbox at some point. Knowing that you hold my art in such high regard makes really happy! 🥰 Unfortunately, the other account that I have is reserved for my professional work and I prefer to keep them separate from one other, but the good thing is that I intend to go back to this blog occasionally. Hoping to see you around! Cheers! 🥂
Tumblr media
@heiressofdoodles Thanks, I appreciate that! ✨ I'm honestly doing much better than I was earlier this Spring. Back then, I was running on empty and on the verge of crashing without even knowing it. Being in constant physical pain was one thing, but feeling mentally and emotionally drained on a daily basis was another entirely, and something had to be done. It took me a moment to really figure out what was wrong, but thankfully I realized very quickly what was causing it and applied the breaks with all my might. One of my main priorities now is to be more alert and respect my own boundaries to make sure that this never happens again. 🥲
Tumblr media
@keakruiser Thank you. 🙏💐 I'm just glad to have found my footing again. Feels good to be able to create freely.^^ Hope you're doing well too!
Special thanks also to @pianokantzart, @jelly-fish-wishes, @katlyntheartist, @triniji and @wahooitsamee for their kind words. 🫂 Your graciousness and consideration means a lot to me. 💝
As for all the nice people who sent me anon comments and well wishes, I tried to summarize my thoughts as best I could in this update, but if there's anything else you'd like to say or know, don't hesitate to ask me anytime! Now that I feel like myself again, I think I'm gonna hang out on Tumblr for a little bit. I'll be excited to see what you guys have been up to in the meantime! 🤗 Wishing you all a very good day and pleasant Fall. 🍂

I would like to discuss a very serious topic today. I'm sure any kpop fan knows about the recent events that occurred few hours ago regarding NCT 127's Taeil. I have a lot of words regarding this situation.
First of all I would like to say I hope all the affected victms who got involved into this mess get their well deserved justice and may they get immense strength to fight for their rights.
As someone who has been a fan of NCT since their pre-debut days... I'm talking about those days when Hansol was also a part of SMent and NCT, it really was a huge shock to hear about this situation. This was one of those moments where I was genuinely so shocked to my core it actually shook me, but at the same time it also put things in perspective that how deceptive and nefarious humans can really be and I also hope that this is turning point for those kpop stans who hold immeasurable high level of parasocial relationship with their faves.
I hope we as a society realize that even though they are celebrities and have "star power" they are common people before the glamour, they deserve equal amount of sentence that common man gets. These people should NEVER be able to get away from their wrong doings.
Nothing will ever haunt me more than knowing that he bugged a phone for 6 years... 6 GODDAMN LONG YEARS, threatened to k word the victim's ill mother and harassed her if she spoke up. 6 long years and the file complaint against him was only filed in this year's June/July. My heart pains to even think about the horrors we as women have to go through, please it is my sincerest request to all of you or anyone reading this to THINK FIRST, they are common citizens before a celebrity, the "worship" and whole parasocial relationship with them can be very harmful.
To think that his members unfollowed him, his own best friend of almost 20 years unfollowed him and the fact that he has a sister is so heartbreaking. I hope all the NCT members are taking their well deserved break from social media, his best friend I just hope he is in a safe and healthy environment and for this sister to be kept away from her own brother. This is truly so heartbreaking.
Please remember that morals and ethic should always be a priority over a celebrity or someone with star power/status.

Hey I was reading your yandere Azul fanfic for like the 50th time and I had this idea for a request:
Can you do the other overblot boys in similar situations?
Also when are we going to have Azul's redemption arc when we get trapped in Scariba?
Have a lovely day/night/morning/afternoon
Why, greetings my dear anon! I’m happy that you enjoyed the ‘Poor Unfortunate Souls’ to read it that many times - and I apologized that I haven’t been able to get started on the Scarbia segment yet (between that and Raison D’être plus work & other stories… and GloMas, I really need to get my priorities straight seriously -_-). However, I do intend on working on it as soon as I can so I can get it out sometime this month or in December - I mean, I think that would be the most logical since that one takes place during holiday break, right?
Now, for your request - I hope head cannons are alright for the time being. I’ll try to come back to them and do short stories for each of them that follows the same concept design as “Am I Feeling Love?” - which is the first installment of the Yandere!Azul series. I'm also going to divide this into two parts - about halfway through I realized I hadn't posted anything in a while and thus, I want to make it up to all of you for not writing or posting anything for some time.
Part 1 (Here) will feature Riddle Rosehearts, Leona Kingscholar, and Jamil Viper
Part 2 (Here) will feature Vil Schoenheit, Idia Shroud, and Malleus Draconia
***
Riddle Rosehearts:
Tumblr media
Yandere Riddle is more of the controlling type - that much is certain. While during his youth, he came across a story about ‘soulmates’ - and the idea of someone made for him took root like a weed in the rose garden. Although his mother ordered for him to dismiss the idea as nothing but a fairytale, Riddle could not push the idea away and it slowly became a source of comfort and drive - if he could stand out both in academics and athletics, surely his soulmate would recognize him as their other half. (There really was no way for him to search for his other half while trapped under his mother’s unwavering gaze, especially after the tart incident.) 
When he saw you in the mirror chamber for the first time many years later, he was awestruck by your grace and beauty, reminding him of how the queen of heart once was long ago… the problem was your impeccable timing. You had the worst sense of direction as well as time - quite literally to the point that he had to give you several (and I mean like five to ten) different watches to have on your person so you wouldn’t run late for your scheduled tea time and after school lessons with him (which he made a priority to keep an eye on your movements, especially with the way you hang around the ADuo).
He likes that you have a favorite tea flavor, but hates that you drink it. All. The. Time. (“There are other teas, you know?” he tells you softly, trying to reign in his urge to yell at you for drinking your tea when you should be drinking the green tea with honey that is required following a lesson with him.)
He recognizes you for your hard work - often watching you from the shadows when time permits as you paint the roses red, care for the hedgehogs, feed the flamingos in that pink attire he provided for you, and assist with the dorm’s random tea party celebrations. Riddle also enjoys your conversations - even though he would like it better if you opened your mouth and stopped speaking so quietly (“Look up, speak nicely. AND DON’T TWIDDLE YOUR FINGERS! Turn out your toes, curtsy, open your mouth a little wider and always say, ‘Yes, Housewarden Riddle.’" He’s constantly reminding you.)
The one thing he can not stand though: your friendship with Duece and Ace and the furball menace. He has added a new rule to the roster: ‘Rule #687: (Y/N) is to always be supervised by either Trey Clover or Cater Diamond when not in the presence of the housewarden.’ (It’s for your wellbeing, after all. Trey and Cater are much more reliable than those two annoying freshmen and fire-breathing direbeast.)
However, his real breaking point is when you side with Ace and Duece following the ‘collaring’. He wouldn’t have dreamed in a million years that you would’ve sided with them over him. He was only trying to look out for your best interests… the best interests of the dorm… He was supposed to be the one…
Leona Kingscholar:
Tumblr media
Yandere Leona is more of the… dependent type. During his youth, one lazy afternoon, his older brother was talking to him about how he read in his studies about a certain smell that would allow him to know if his soulmate was nearby. Leona had at first shrugged it off, not really caring - after all, he wasn’t going to be king… why should he worry about finding the right one? He didn’t need annoying little brats running circles around him like his nephew did already… what a pain.
That changed the moment you entered the mirror chamber. Your scent wafted through the air and tickled Leona’s nose like a call of a hornbill to its mate. Leona could feel a need rising within him - a sudden need to protect and lay claim to you as his. And when the mirror turned you away, Ruggie was surprised when he stepped forward, offering a place to stay in Savanclaw.
It was no surprise to anyone that Leona decided to make you his personal gopher (although he knew that he couldn’t rely on you 24/7 as you weren’t allowed to attend the school - not that he cared much anyway for classes). During practice, you would bring water and snacks - the housewarden always scruffing the top of your head and messing your hair up, offering a cheeky grin that no one had seen before. In the dorm, you would sit with him and look over his homework and studies - Ruggie nearby to help you understand what was being taught, considering that this was something far beyond your understanding - especially since you had no magic ability either.
Speaking of which, Ruggie was the only other person - besides Leona - that was allowed to get close to you. Any other student that attempted to get within a foot of you would suffer under Leona’s frightening stare before choking on ‘King’s Roar’ until they begged for mercy when you weren’t around.
When the spelldrive tournament came up - and you unknowingly found out about the plan to hurt another student - you confronted Leona about it. Leona tried to play innocent - pretending not to know what you were talking about, Ruggie assisting with the typically ‘innocent until guilty’ look that he often gave you.
His last straw was when you and Jack warned the others of Savanaclaw's plan - the housewarden of Heartslabyul and his students effectively coming to your aid. Leona thought he could trust you… that you would respect him and love him as the king he was supposed to be…
Jamil Viper
Tumblr media
Jamil is your typical stalker type - wanting to know about your every move, it’s ingrained in him after all. During his youth, he - along with the other servants of the Al-Asim home - would watch over the young masters as they grew up, one eye always on the lookout for danger that could befall the family. Kalim - as sweet and carefree as he was - would often spend time in Jamil’s presence, chewing his ear off with stories and such, Jamil often ignoring what he said or taking everything with a grain of salt. However - the story of the Scalding Sands princess and the thief never completely left his mind. Legends stated that the two were fated to be together - and the land had been prosperous during their reign. Jamil would often turn the story over in his mind a handful of times, but tsk at the idea of soulmates. It was only a fairy tale… right?
That changed the moment he saw you in the mirror chamber - your eyes wide by everything that was different and strange to you. If Jamil was honest, he thought back to the story of the desert princess and the thief right then and there - he imagined himself as the thief and you as the princess, and the longing that filled him had to be the same as it was for the thief when he had seen the princess’ beauty for the first time. It was easy to persuade Kalim to let you stay in Scarabia, using ‘Snake Whisper’ to charm him into allowing the headmaster for you to stay. Once within the safe confines of the dorm, Jamil offered for you to assist him with taking care of Kalim (“Trust me, my little desert flower,” he tells you, “things aren’t always as they seem. You will get what’s coming to you.”)
Speaking of which - like Azul’s pet name of ‘Angelfish,’ Jamil refers to you as ‘Desert Flower.’ When you asked why that was, Jamil would cough and say something about how you reminded him of the flowers back in the Scalding Sands - particularly the Desert Hyacinth (which is a parasitic plant, oddly enough).
Regardless, Jamil enjoys spending time with you - when not chasing Kalim around. In the evenings, when the dorm is asleep, he finds the evenings quite relaxing in your presence; playing Mancala on the carpeted flooring after having his feet rubbed in oil to alleviate the tension and pain from all the hard work he did. When he asks if there’s anything he can do for you in return, you simply smile and shake your head, explaining how you’re thankful for his kindness and generosity for keeping you company in the late evenings when you both know he should be getting rest.
However, as the holiday season approaches and the rest of the school heads home for the holidays, Jamil notices your disappearance one night - making him frantic to know where you had disappeared to. That fear turns into seething rage when you return with an octopus and two eels in tow - Jamil demanding to know what the meaning of this is. Out of the goodness of your heart, you explain that you sought help for him and Kalim - especially with Kalim’s strange mood swings making you more and more nervous with each passing day. The presence of the scheming octomer and his twin pals makes Jamil more on edge than ever - watching from the shadows as you and Kalim turn to your new allies. It would seem… desperate times call for desperate measures.
The look on your face when it’s revealed that he was the one behind the changes in Kalim’s behavior was enough to shatter Jamil’s heart into a thousand pieces - like a glass lamp crushed under the weight of stone. The fear… the anger… the resentment towards Kalim has become centerfold - but Jamil could never hate you… his little desert flower. If only he was headwarden… if he was in charge… none of this would have happened… it was all Kalim’s fault, after all…

Tumblr media
Alright, I contacted the group.
Thomas already contacted the number which was send to him.
I will give the number access to the chats now and will contact it afterwards.
I should make it short. A video call he smiles, knowing how impressive his skills can be.
Let's save the number first. Maybe I will know the name after saving it and I can take a look at the profile picture. I'm really curious who might be behind the number.
*typing in number*
Hmm... female a smile rushes his face
Beautiful name and.... what a beautiful women.
That's what you call a blessing in disguise.
He realizes that he is litarally staring at the picture and shakes his head.
Ok, the chat between Jessica and Dan is over. My turn.
How do I start. What about a simple *typing*
Tumblr media
She doesn't know what I mean, damn my bad he rolls his eyes and starts typing again
Tumblr media
She likes it. His heart makes a jump but in the same moment he forces hisself for not beeing this emotional.
Ok, time to cut it short.
He makes sure that his hoodie is hiding his face and starts the video call.
He ends the call with the words "trust me".
Tumblr media
Phew, ok let's see what she thinks about all of it.
She trusts me he thinks a bit surprised very good! I knew the video call was a good idea. She's interesting... his thoughts wander but no time for it yet.
I will introduce her what to do. She has access to the cloud already.
Ok, done. And now, just to make it clear because all of this is very important *typing*
Tumblr media
And.. offline.
He leans back. Happy with his work so far.
He takes another quick look at MC's profile picture  Beautiful girl he smiles while he is reading the chats between the group and MC and tries to find helping clues.
After a while a message from MC pops up.
He sits up straight.
Her first found in the cloud. That was quick but unfortunately not usefull. Nevertheless.
Tumblr media
She is quick-witted. I like that.
Good, she knows what to do. Let's go on.
Wait, what? She wants to talk to me? Why? She thinks I'm interesting. He feels that he's blushing.
What does she wants to know? I will not tell her a thing about me...it's too risky...not now. Ok...
She wants to know which program I use to hack? Clever. He smiles.
*typing*
I have to make sure, that hiding my identidy has the highest priority.
Great, she understands.
Tumblr media
In the moment he sends the message he bites his bottom lip.
Damn, that sounded a bit hard. I didn't mean it like that.
Why she wants me to choose a topic now? My last smalltalk is definetely too long ago.
*typing*
Tumblr media
Seriously Jake? You can't think of anything better? He shakes his head.
MC, I'm sorry that my words come out so hard and distanced. I really want to talk to you. You're so interesting as well and I already feel a connection between us but I can't open up to you. We don't have time for that.
So many thoughts crossing his mind but he has to protect his identidy. He must save the distance between them. It's too dangerous for him. And also for her.
Ok, second try.
Tumblr media
Well, not much better as the first question. But enough smalltalk for now. There's a lot of work to do. For both of us.
If I wonder who you are MC? Of course I do.
Alright, I will lock out. Otherwise I'll probably end up telling her my name or worse...
He leans back, streches.
Ok girl, good luck. He smiles and starts working.

A Time to Heal
Tumblr media
Trystan x Carolina
One thing is for certain. When @/artbyainna (IG) comes to bat, she only hits home runs. I have run out of superlatives to describe how incredible her art is a long, long time ago... but she did it again! I simply love this!
Book: Crimes of Passion (Post Series) Pairing: Trystan Thorne x F!MC (Carolina Rose) Rating: Mature / 18+ / NSFW Words: 1,500 Summary: After a rough day on the job, Carolina & Trystan return to her apartment, where Trystan wants nothing more than to take care of her. But in the end, they realize they do their best healing together. A/N: @lexicook74-blog asked for a Trystan x Carolina hurt/comfort fic a long, long time ago. I can take a long time to get to them, but I'm determined to do all asks sent to me :) I hope you like it! Submitting to @choicesjunechallenge2024. It doesn't fit any of the prompts completely, but we can see indecision before he surrenders.
Tumblr media
The two flights of stairs that led to Carolina’s apartment were something she and Trystan typically navigated with ease. If she took double steps, she'd be upstairs in a matter of seconds. Sometimes, Trystan would yell, “Race you!” when he already had a three-step lead, and they’d both end up panting before her door in an instant. But today wasn’t a typical day.
Trystan trudged along, inches behind his limping partner, who let out a soft whimper with every other step she took. Ensuring she got upstairs was his only concern, so he did his best to conceal his own pain. With just four steps to go, he thought he was in the clear when a muscle spasm seized his back and thwarted his plans.
“Ow! Ow, ow, ow... ouch!” He cried out in pain.
“Trystan,”  Carolina exclaimed. “What’s wrong? I knew you were hurt, too!”
“It’s nothing,” he replied, trying to wave it off, but his clenched teeth said otherwise. “If the Drakovian press knew I was whining about something so superficial, the people would demand my passport be rescinded at once.”
Carolina shook her head and leaned against the door as she fished around the bottom of her purse to find her keys.
“Does everything have to tie back to some strange Drakovian lore?”
“Usually,” he smirked, placing a kiss on her cheek.
A feeling of tranquility washed over them as they stepped inside. Carolina’s apartment. It was small and far from fancy, but the warm, cozy space always gave them a sense of peace. At minimum, they were pretty sure the floor under their feet would support them. Something they hadn’t had the luxury of earlier today.
“Come,” he said, guiding her to the couch. “Let’s get you seated.”
“Me?” she protested. “But you’re hurt, too!”
“Your hip is badly bruised and you’ve been limping! I still say you should have seen a doctor! You’re hurt. I merely have a boo-boo.”
“A boo-boo?” Carolina chuckled as he sat beside her. “Can I kiss it and make it all better?”
The smirk on his lips and the fire coming alive in his eyes made his thoughts clear, but ensuring his girlfriend was all right was his priority this evening.
“If you’re a good girl and let me take care of you, maybe I’ll let you tend to my boo-boos later.”
He rose from the couch to get Carolina an ice pack, but she reached for his hand and stopped him in his tracks.
“No, stay with me.”
“Lina,” he sighed. “Let me take care of you! You fell through a floor in an abandoned building today!”
“Ehh,” she shrugged. “It’s all in a day’s work. I’ve been through much worse. Besides, you fell through that same floor!”
“I just pulled a muscle,” he said, arching his back. “It’s nothing.”
“Well, mine is really nothing, too. We were quite lucky.”
“Of course we were,” he grinned, placing a buss on her lips. “You’re my good luck charm, after all.”
“Please,” she laughed. “Your life has been filled with one nightmare after another since we met. I’m hardly your good luck charm.”
“Ah, but I survived every one of those challenges, some of them largely because of you, so I’m sorry, Detective Rose. You’re my good luck charm. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to make you chicken soup.”
“Chicken soup?” She queried. “That’s for colds and the flu, not two idiots falling through a ceiling.”
“Yes, but in times of trouble... we go with what we know. So, chicken soup it is.”
An hour later, they sat at the kitchen table, still sore, but full bellies delivered some relief.
“See, I told you,” Trystan mumbled as he bit into a crusty piece of bread. “Chicken soup heals all.”
“I guess,” Carolina smiled but quickly winced as her aches reminded her they were far from gone.
“Are you OK?”
“Just sore. I’m thinking of taking two Advil and then getting into a hot bath.”
“Don’t say another word!” He took their plates and began clearing the table. “I’ll go run the water for you.”
“Trystan, I can run my own bath!”
“Nope! This is not a battle you will win.”
“Fine,” she laughed. “I’ve learned to choose my battles with you. But make sure you add the new bubble bath we bought. This is a great time to start using it”
Moments later, Trystan helped Carolina to the bathroom; her face lit up when she saw what he had done. The scent of the lavender bubble bath wafted through the air, as dozens of little candles glistened around her old clawfoot tub, washing the room in a mystical glow.
“Trystan,” she smiled. “What did you do!”
“I can’t expect you to convalesce in an unsuitable environment.”
“You spoil me,” she sighed.
“And you better get used to it.”
Trystan helped her out of her clothes, becoming more transfixed with each new item that fell to the floor. Carolina was stunning, and he always found her irresistible; but the combination of candlelight and moonlight pouring in the window reflecting on her skin, their shadows accentuating every delicate curve on her body, it left him breathless.
But that’s not what tonight was about, and when he felt his body begin to stir, he deliberately turned away. Relieved when she slipped into the warm water. With her exquisite figure concealed under a plethora of bubbles, his primal urges began to dissipate.
“Ahhhh,” she breathed, as her tension drifted away. “This is just perfect.”
Trystan placed a small table with strawberry-infused water within her reach, then kneeled beside the tub, gently bopping her nose with a bubble-strewn finger.
 “You’re perfect.”
But Carolina's mood visibly shifted when he stood up and asked if she needed anything before he left.
“Leaving? Why are you leaving?” She tapped the water gently with an open hand. “There is plenty of room in here; I was hoping you’d join me.”
“But I want you to relax; you took quite a fall today.”
“Trystan,” she said with an arched brow. “You took the same fall! Now, get in here with me. That’s an order.”
“Well, if it’s an order...” he smirked.
Quickly removing his clothes, he slid into the tub across from his love, letting out a deep sigh the moment his body was submerged. With his arms stretched over the tub's sides and his legs rubbing against Carolina’s silky skin he wondered why this hadn't been his plan all along.
“This is divine,” he swooned.
“I told you! No way was I going to let you miss out on this.”
“And for that, I thank you!”
They closed their eyes, reclining in the soothing waters for a long while; but when Trystan opened his eyes again, he found Carolina’s sultry brown eyes peering at him, a playful grin on her face. 
“Yessss?” He droned.
“Do you have any idea how sexy you are in this lighting?”
“In this lighting?" He said, feigning insult. "I thought I looked sexy in all lighting!"
Carolina barked out a laugh. “That goes without saying, of course! But in this lighting... you’re especially desirable.”
Carolina was stunned; perhaps the candlelight was impeding her vision, but she swore she saw Trystan Thorne blush.
“You’re one to talk,” he whispered. “You’re simply ravishing.”
The lapping water made delicate sounds as Carolina pushed herself up and moved closer to Trystan. This allowed him a quick peek at her luscious curves before he felt them pressed firmly against his chest.
“Then, why aren’t you ravishing me," she purred in his ear.
Trystan thought he might melt into the water. “Lina,” he moaned. “What are you doing to me?”
Her pride morphed into a smile as she dragged her hand up his thigh, then slowly, excruciatingly slowly, skimmed her fingers along his hardened length.
“I haven’t done anything yet,” she teased. “But that’s about to change.”
He let out a muffled growl when her arms wrapped around him, stoking her desire even more.
“Lina, you’re hurt," he said, offering one last out.
“I’m fine!"
“I want you to feel better!”
She pushed back with seductive eyes, just begging to be taken.
“If you want me to feel better... I can offer some suggestions on how you can do that.”
His erection pulsated against her thigh, and she silently lauded herself for her restraint at that moment.
“Are you sure?” he whispered as her hands sunk under the water grasping him at his base, pleasuring him with slow, deliberate strokes until he quivered beneath her.
“100% sure,” she hissed, parting his lips with her tongue, entangling it with his for a long, sensual kiss.
The grin on his face couldn’t have been wider when they parted. “If you keep doing this, I'll see to it that we fall through ceilings together every day."
Carolina straddled him, placing him at her center before holding him tight. Unbridled shrieks of pleasure filled the air as she slowly sank down on him. He reached up and cupped her breasts just as he filled her completely. She closed her eyes, remaining still for just a moment to savor the feeling, and then, with a wicked grin she began to grind shamelessly against him.
If either had a worry about the water that splashed onto the floor, they certainly didn't show it as they brought each other to the precipice of pleasure again, and again until they unraveled in each other's arms.
“I don’t know what doctor recommended this treatment plan,” Trystan said trying to catch his breath. “But I really need to thank them.”
"What, this is how I fix boo-boos?" Carolina smiled.
"Then, I need to thank you."
Shortly after, the couple curled up in bed... completely in need of painkillers to soothe their aching muscles. But the blissful smiles on their faces as they drifted off to sleep made it very, very clear... sore muscles be damned, it had all been worth it.

AITA for being a ....homewrecker? (🏝 for later)
I'm not sure that's the right word, but whatever. Basically, I (FtM) met this guy (cis M, we'll call him M) over a year ago and we hit it off pretty quick. It was under extremely unusual circumstances, but for the sake of anonymity, I'll be vague and just say: it was 3 AM, Denny's, T.E Lawrence was involved. Now, I'm pretty wary of most guys who go to my school, given I'm trans and unfit to defend myself for various would-break-anonymity reasons, but M is just the best and is incredibly sweet. Days are easier when he's around, even if it's just through a Discord call playing video games. I started harboring feelings for him pretty much immediately, but didn't plan on acting on them for two reasons:
1) I've yet to be in an actual committed relationship (nobody's wanted to stick around, or we both realized quickly we weren't dating material) and I'm terrified of fucking anything up. 2) ....M has a girlfriend. A super long-term one, at that. Like, they met when they were kids, he's been romancing her for ages, they're going to get married and both openly agree they'd be shells of people without each other. Soulmate shit. She's awesome. She's the sweetest, too. Very thoughtful, and soft-spoken, and so so smart. So, no, I didn't plan on doing anything about my feelings. I'm not the type to hide who I am, so I wasn't going to hide anything, but I certainly wasn't going to DO anything either. That's not my place.
Until, one school break, M comes to me and admits he has feelings. And he's wrecked about it. Tells me I'm the only other person he's really had this for, because it's always been his girlfriend. He's a mess. I thought we communicated pretty well, and we'd both made it clear that nothing was going to happen unless Girlfriend knew about it and approved, because she comes first above all else. (I was the one to say this before him, and he was relieved that I understood.) She is priority. She will always be priority, and I totally get that. I'm just some guy, you know? But the conversation ended with me telling him he should probably let her know about this, regardless of how scary that was, because he's an incredibly touchy-feely guy and if I was her I'd like if this was on my radar. New player: M's best friend. very by the book christian guy. Not at all stuck up, but he abstains from worldly pleasures or something like that! He's cool, we're cool.
Except after break, M's best friend makes a few confusing comments, and suddenly, there's now never been a time when just me and M have hung out since. Girlfriend hasn't acted any differently and is still incredibly warm and wonderful, so I'm pretty sure she still doesn't know. I'm a very giving person and like to shower my friends in gifts, so I was undeterred in giving them both valentine's gifts I had bought them months in advance (extra hand wringing on my part.) Girlfriend was ecstatic, loved her gift, and M loved his too. But then he left to go Cry??? Because he hadn't gotten her anything (I'm the only one with a min $ job). I'm not sure where I stand with him or with either of them, and i'm just so confused. I'm 🤷‍♂️ about poly, but with the way they were raised (see M's best friend for reference), their feelings are more muddy about it. I want to talk to M, but being alone in the same room is impossible. I don't know if M has been intentionally making sure we're never alone together, I don't know if Girlfriend knows, or what M wants, what Girlfriend would want or even what I want, because I don't know what's on the table. I don't even know if we're in the same restaurant. Girlfriend is going to find out. M is way too touchy feely even with "supervision". (Granted, he is with everyone, I'm pretty sure I'm just the only person who lets him get away with it.) At this rate, somethings going to give, and i'm honestly just waiting for it to happen now. 🤷‍♂️

Saiki kinda losing it : Reigen is the most frighteningly capable adult that I know. That is because he is sent by god to kill me. Teruhashi is the bait, and Mob is the unwitting shepherd. If I interact with all three together at once for a long period of time, It chips away at my life irrecrably. Thus, avoiding them is my top priority if I wish to live. However, as this is a mission issued by god, an escape is near futile.
I am so glad that you managed to perfectly capture Saiki's energy throughout this AU. This man lives in fear of Reigen's Adultness and that only grows exponentially as the AU goes on
You got Mob's role down perfectly! Wherever he is, the other two are almost definitely somewhere nearby and it's never intentional. Sometimes he'll meet Saiki casually and on accident and while the two are chatting and walking, Saiki will suddenly realize that Mob instinctively led them towards Spirits and Such Consulting Office, the den of lions.
-
It's actually really fun because he becomes slightly more involved with the AU as time goes on (chronologically) because
He becomes closer with Teruhashi
One of his primary love languages is stalking (with the exception of psychics, then his primary love language is intense violence)
However, due to Mob's power and the combined godly luck of Reigen and Teruhashi, he can't exactly be hidden while attempting to do his stalkery things. Then he becomes trapped in a conversation where hehas no companion to turn to when he has to interact with the 3 of them at once.
Teruhashi will think he's cute and also that he's a bit like Mob and that it'd be funny if he was also a psychic and Oh! She should invite him to the office (This line of thinking alone almost never fails to send him into a near cardiac arrest)
Mob will just be quietly thinking about his own thing then he'll casually say some shit like "Oh hey, why were you lurking in the corner, hiding from everyone else a minute ago?" with no warning, leaving him to scramble for a socially accepted response that doesn't make him sound like a gremlin who hides in the shadows of rooms.
Reigen says things about him that he doesn't want to know and stop thinking I'm lonely, old man- I don't show signs of brother issues, you shouldn't even know about that, I don't have any trauma regarding that bastard-
So yeah...
Saiki becomes a very minor character in the later parts of the AU and is constantly doing his best to try and hide from Reigen and Teruhashi but to no avail.
That boy has so little responsible adults in his life that when he meets one for the first time that's also very competent, he instantly goes into fight or flight mode (and he's not allowed to fight Reigen cause that would make Kokomi sad)

How does it go when John and Javier see each other again? Obviously they have their interaction in rdr1 but they don’t talk about how bad things got in the last chapter of rdr2 and I’m curious if either one of them held any bitter feelings and also if John and/ot Arthur noticed how Javier pointed his gun at the sky, refusing to shoot either one of them?
Raaaaaah john and javier in timewarpppp
important context: i headcanon this interaction in rdr2 was actually a response to john asking javier to leave the gang with him, abigail and jack in a 'we had a thing that can't be a thing anymore because i do love my wife and my son and am entirely devoted to keeping them safe but i do still Care about you and don't want to lose you' and javier's response was like 'oh great so i'll be the little mexican peasant turned farmhand waiting for the big tough landowner to get bored of his wife and come fuck me?'
^^ in saying this javier didn't snitch to dutch or micah that john very much had a plan in place to leave because he was still loyal to john too. it was a great act of love to feel like he was betraying dutch but letting john have that chance even though he still felt like john was betraying the gang too
look i love me some toxic yaoi i'm the problem it's me
ALSO in timewarp canon, John did kill Javier and hand his corpse over to the bureau instead of taking Javier in alive. it was a mercy killing in a sense because he did capture Javier alive but he knew Javier too well and did still love him. he didn't want him going through whatever torture they had planned and he knew Javier was afraid as much as he hid it behind taunts and insults.
all of them lived so many lives between 1899 and 1911. javier timewarped, saw the gang and broke down crying like tears of relief to see them but also just the guilt and shame wanting to admit they were right dutch abandoned him the second the pinkertons turned up and he should have trusted arthur and he was a fool not to see through dutch and for arthur it's more of a 'oh shit that's right you were still in beaver hollow too'
it's not something that haunts arthur?? at some point he stopped thinking about that moment it's not a core memory for arthur. he remembers susan being killed, dutch still not believing micah was the rat, the relief of realizing john was still alive only to be cut short by trying to help his little brother flee and saying goodbye knowing it was the last time while still begging dutch to see some semblance of reason and do not go with micah. who was pointing what at who was a detail lost to memory a long time ago
javier escuella was no one's priority in chapter 6. and that hurts ME but also like javier being able to slip away because not even the pinkertons would prioritizes chasing him over hunting down The Dutch van der Linde. no one remembered or held onto what javier did in chapter 6.
javier is so desperate for the gang back and so willing to forget all the bad things and the dark years between 1899-1911. the gang are honestly pretty happy to just let javier be himself in a much more he wants to be rdr2 guitar playing suave loser javier instead of some dictator's hired gun
john and javier, however, is like. they still love each other guys they are the same breed of doomed as arthur and mary where it just would never work but that love is still there.
javier is sorry john didn't get to go back to his family. he genuinely feels bad because he knows john didn't willingly decide to hunt him down after 12 years (well maybe the gang had to fill him in on the whole abigail and jack were literally being held hostage situation but javier didn't hold onto that anger for long at all)
john very honestly says he is sorry for what happened in 1911 and if he had any other choice he would never choose to capture or kill javier. what he does not say is he has nightmares over the second he pulled the trigger and javier became a corpse and the angst of being so used to seeing corpses but the fact it was javier, having to carry him limp to the awaiting bureau car, the absolute psychological toll it had on him.
there is an intensely painful moment where while neither one says it they are both have the thought of 'well abigail isn't going to be here for three years do we - pick up with how things were in 1899?' cross their minds
But john is so in love with abigail and missing his wife and also having his daughter back having to raise her as a sole parent for 3 years until abigail gets there when the cumulative time he spent with jack one-on-one probably doesn't even add up to three years.
javier is having to redefine himself. he really doesn't know who he is being with the gang again. he half expects to look into the mirror and see his younger rdr2 self but it's not. does he really want to immediately fall back into john and what is for lack of better words an affair? getting to play house and be in a relationship until the second abigail appears and knowing he will never be john's priority over her?
damn if only there was some autistic irish loser who also loves fishing, understands the intense complexity of guilt and betrayed loyalty, abandoning ideals for the sake of survival, and could help javier learn he deserves better than being john's second choice
javier and bill though are also proper friends they get to talk to each other about it because both have very intense responses and different perspectives on beaver hollow. also hc they ran with each other for a fair while after the gang fell apart before splitting off because bill was slowly starting to form his own gang and javier was just tired and did not want to go through that again esp because bill was already power tripping.

First Lady of Private Garden Masterlist
Warnings: mention of a miscarriage
Please Do Not Repost My Content Anywhere
Jack had been laying down in your shared bedroom after you had left going over different scenarios in his head.
If he would have been honest with his wife from the beginning, none of this would have happened and he had no one to blame but himself.
There was a small knock on the door and Urban stuck his head in to check on his other best friend.
"I know you aren't okay, so I'm not even going to ask." He said while coming over and sitting next to him.
"What if she divorces me?" Jack quietly asks while looking down. 
"There isn't a chance in hell she would do that no matter how upset she is at you. The two of you have gone through hell and back this year."
"But you saw the way she looked at me. All I could see was disappointment and I never want her to look at me that way again. I… just…. I'm the worst husband in the world right now."
"You are."
"Thank you for that, Urb."
"I'm your best friend and I have to be honest. All this shit could have been avoided if you had been honest and told her what was going in the first place. I remember telling you when we were 17 how much she loves you and not to do anything to fuck it up, but look how that turned out. We told you from the beginning to stay the hell away from Anitta and I remember Y/N telling you how uncomfortable she made her, but once again you ignored her. You have barely put her feelings into consideration this entire time and you could have ended this shit in May. Now when she actually did fight her, I don't even remember you asking her if she was okay. You were stuck on her breaking a promise to you and not even concerned about her well-being. Keep in mind she was there for you when you didn't have any of this and she always puts you first. You need to start putting your wife first and taking her feelings into consideration. She was right to call off the wedding until you two get on the same page. Truth be told, maybe the two of you got married too early. I know you love each other, but I need my best friends to work on their marriage. She should always be your number 1 priority and you haven't really treated her that way this year."
"I didn't even realize…"
"We all tried to tell you, but at the end of the day, you're an adult that can make his own decisions. We can't tell you what to do. But in the end, you hurt the person who would do anything for you and not give it a second thought."
"I don't even know what to do to try to get back in her good graces."
"Leave her alone and let her be. You should know that better than anyone. She'll talk to you once she's ready."
"What if…."
"No. We aren't making up and speculating things that haven't even happened. Think about it, if she honestly didn't want to be with you, she would have left a long time ago. She obviously sees something in you that makes her want to stay married to you. Just try to work on being better for her."
Jack took Urban's advice and was simply giving you your space. The both of you then decided to let social media know that the wedding would not be happening and of course his phone was blowing up non stop with people wanting answers as to what was going on.
It wasn't until he got a text from his younger brother Clay when it really hit home.
Clay- What the hell did you do to my sister?
Jack- Kept something from her since May and finally told her and she wasn't happy with me
Clay- I'm going to be honest. With as much shit she has put up from you, I'm not surprised if she was the one to call off the wedding. You have no idea what you have right in front of your face and how special she is. She will do absolutely ANYTHING for you and you still manage to fuck up which I don't understand. You brought this shit on yourself. Mom and dad aren't happy with you either. All that Anitta shit could have been dealt with early this year but you didn't shut it down. I don't know if this is related to that, but I have a feeling that it is
Jack- I get it and I'm going to try to do better by her. I already feel like shit as it is.
Clay- You should and there isn't any trying here. Just do it. Otherwise, someone else will really take your girl from you.
After Clay got finished giving his older brother a piece of his mind, he attempted to call you multiple times but you didn't answer.
But you did send him this
You- Clay, I love your brother more than life itself, but for right now I need to focus on loving myself. I am far from being okay, but I'll get there
Clay- If you need me to do anything for you, just say the word
You- I appreciate you. If I need you, I'll let you know
The incoming calls and texts to Jack's phone weren't slowing down any time soon.
Neelam- Umm….. someone want to tell me what’s going on?
2fo- You fucked up, didn't you?
Nas- I was supposed to catch the bouquet, what the hell did you do?
Quiiso- I'm thinking a milkshake probably isn't about to fix this one
Shloob- I can hide you from your wife. Just say the word, but I know your ass did something for it to be called off.
Druski- Sooooo….. I'll let Y/N know her real husband is now available. But seriously, yall good? 
Ace- Y/N isn't even answering us so what the hell?
Nic- Sleep with one eye open
Dua- I feel like I want to make a joke right now, but seriously are you two okay? 
Dani- Look, I don't know what you did because she won't tell me. However, I am always in your corner and you better fix this and fix it fast. You're my little brother and I adore you, but I have no hesitations to kick your ass when it comes to Lil bit. 
Jack didn't even bother responding to anyone because he didn't have the energy. He already knew he fucked up and didn't have to get that said to him at least fifteen more times.
He was going to continue to give you your space and do whatever he needed to do in order to prove to you that he could be the husband that you deserved.
Jack saw all of your many instagram posts with you being on tour and spending time with Dani and Nic and was proud of you for sticking to your word with wanting to focus on yourself.
He admits that he had been selfish
Because he knew any time he needed you that you would be there without a second thought but he didn't give you that said treatment in return as of lately.
He still sent you flowers before every show, but would just send simple text messages wanting to check up on you.
You were responding and he didn't want to press his luck, so he left it at that.
Jack- Missing my baby and I hope you have an amazing show tonight. I love you.
You- Miss you too and I love you right back tenfold. Thank you for the flowers.
It wasn't until the next day that it got worse just when he thought it couldn't.
He had barely woken up when he saw he had a text from you and immediately opened it.
You- Jack, I’m scared shitless. I didn’t want to do this over text but I needed to tell you this as soon as possible. I’m pregnant. WITH TRIPLETS.
Jack was simply staring at the text message over and over again not believing what he was seeing.
He didn't even respond to you and immediately called his mother.
"Jack?"
All she heard were sniffles and was immediately concerned.
"Jack, what's wrong?" Her concern was now growing by the second because of Jack not answering her.
At this point in time, Urban came to ask if Jack wanted to go out to eat and saw his best friend upset and holding the phone to his ear, but not talking which left him confused.
"She… she….there's three of them…."
Urban then took the phone and tried to ask Maggie what was going on, but she didn't have an answer for him and put her on speaker.
"Jack, what? Three of what?"
"Damn, I can’t believe this."
"Can't believe what? We can't help if you don't tell us."
"We're barely even talking and then this…."
"And then WHAT?!"
"Y/N is pregnant."
"Yes! Godfather duties in full effect! I have to facetime her. I guess it's too early for her to start showing since she's still wearing her same tour outfits."
"With triplets." Jack whispered while sitting down.
"Come again?" Urban asked while looking at him dumbfounded.
"WHAT!?" Both of them heard Maggie say through the phone and her mind was going at 100 miles per hour.
"Just hold on. Let me call her." Jack simply held his head in his hands while Urban was looking like a deer caught in headlights.
Then they both heard your voice come through the phone.
Urban made a mental note to call you after because if Jack wasn't okay, he knew you weren't either.
"Y/N, sweetheart?"
"Yes, mom?" She heard through your sniffles.
Now both of her children were crying and she was now responsible to get both of you to calm down and was praying that her words of advice would help.
"Okay, first, congratulations. I am very excited to be a grandmother."
"Got damn it, Jackman! You would have to put three in me instead of one! Overachiever ass." You said through your cries. Saying it over and over again now made it feel more real.
"Baby, please don’t yell at me right now. I can't take it. I already feel like a shitty husband and now I'm scared shitless. Now I'm responsible for my wife, three babies, and twelve pets?"
"Damn." Urban said while scratching the back of his neck.
"Okay, you two. Listen. It's going to be okay, you know that you have a tribe of people behind you to support you."
"I… just.. Jack?"
"Yes, baby?" Jack answered you with his head still in his hands.
"I can't go through another miscarriage again. My heart can't take it. It was only one last time but if I end up losing three?" Jack heard your voice crack and felt some type of way about not being able to console you in person about this.
"We're not going to think like that. You're going to carry them to term this time."
"Okay, I'm going to give you two a chance to talk, okay? Call me if you need me." Maggie said before hanging up. Jack decided that he was going to face time you because he needed to put his eyes on his wife.
"I'll call her after you do." Urban said and left out the room in order to give the two of you privacy.
You saw where Jack was trying to face time you and you immediately answered.
And his heart broke all over again.
Both of your faces were red and puffy from crying and you were steadily wiping away tears from your face.
At least you weren't shaking like you were earlier and Dani had to get you to calm down which took her close to an hour.
You were the first to speak.
"Baby, I'm so scared." You quietly said while looking down and you were surprised that he actually heard you.
"I know, I am too. But we're going to get through this. But we need to stop thinking negatively. All three are healthy and they aren't going to have any issues. Um, Y/N?"
"Oh no. You called me by my first name. You hardly ever do that."
"It's nothing bad, I just. I don't want to tell you what to do. It's just a suggestion. But I need for all four of you…. holy shit… all four of you to be safe."
"You're about to ask me to cancel my tour and come home aren't you?" You said with more tears forming in your eyes and that broke Jack's heart once again. You've worked so hard for your career to take off. It finally was and now it had to be put on hold.
You admit that you wanted kids to Jack months ago, however, the two of you were on better terms than you were now. If it had happened then, you wouldn't have given it a second thought.
"It's the safest option, stink. Having multiples is always considered a high risk pregnancy and the fact that you miscarried before? I need my wife with me so I can keep an eye on her."
You were quiet for a few seconds before nodding your head and agreeing with your husband.
"Okay. I'll let Brandi know. I should be back tomorrow."
"Okay, I love you. So so very much."
"I love you too."
"It's going to be okay."
"I hope so. I don't see how my grandmother did this. Three at one time?"
"My wife is a badass and she's going to be just fine."
Once you hung up with Jack, you took a few minutes to yourself before calling Urban. You already knew that he was worried shitless about you and had been since you originally left.
He picked up without even giving the phone a chance to ring when he saw it was you.
"What do you need me to do? Say the word."
"I just.. I need a hug from my best friend right now but I have to wait until tomorrow to get it."
"You know you never have to ask. Why can't you come back now? I don't know if I can console your husband for another 24 hours because that…. that was a lot."
"I can try and be on a flight tonight."
"Please let me know. I'll come and get you. I'll bring Jack, but I don't trust him to drive right now. I… it's going to be okay Lil Bit."
"Thank you, Urby. I love you."
"Love you too. You know this shit is forever. I..  I know that big ass fight we had might have left you thinking I didn't care about you but that couldn't be further from the truth. You know you're my girl and no matter if we have disagreements, if you call me, I'm dropping everything and I'm going to make sure you're okay. Now do what you need to do in order to get back here so we have eyes on you and I'm going to check on your husband." You couldn't help but to have a few tears slip out and quickly wiped them away.
"I'll let you know when I'll be there."
Once you hung up, you went into overdrive telling Brandi that you needed to go home to Kentucky and that the tour would be postponed. 
Dani was quietly helping you pack and eyeing you at the same time. 
You had been quiet ever since you had talked to Jack and she was worried about her younger sister.
"Y/N?"
"Hmm?" You stopped your movements to look up at her and she sat down and patted the space next to her telling you to sit. 
Once you did, she simply hugged you and the waterworks started all over again.
"I love you so much, you know that right?" Dani said and you immediately nodded while trying not to soak her shirt with your tears.
"You are going to be such an amazing mother to not one, but three beautiful babies that will think the world of you and Jack. You two are going to fix this and be on the same page."
"I hope so."
"No. No hoping. The two of you are going to put in the work to make this happen. Now, I'm going to make sure you get home okay and then you need to spend quality time with you and your husband. Shut out the world. I know you said you needed to focus on yourself, but I have a feeling that this will make the two of you a lot stronger and 2023 will be a better year."
Once the plane had landed, you looked out to see Jack and Urban waiting for you on the tarmac. It was around 1 am and you couldn't get off the plane fast enough in order to hug your husband. 
Despite everything that went down, you were still mad at him but you did miss him. 
After you descended the steps, you ran full speed and he caught you as your legs wrapped around him.
And that’s when the tears started again.
Jack was rubbing your back trying to console you as best as he could. 
"I'm happy you’re back."
"Me too."

Comments on this post have been limited
It was around 4 in the morning and you were still wide awake. You had a feeling Jack was too since his breathing pattern hadn't changed. You were simply staring off into space and he was the first to break the silence.
"Baby, I know you aren't asleep. What's wrong besides the obvious?"
"There are literally three more heartbeats in my body besides my own. And I don't know when I'm supposed to start to show, but because there are three I can already see a difference from last week. I don't want anyone to know about this because I do not need the stress. I’ve dealt with enough for the past year to last me a lifetime and I know they’ll be able to sense it."
"I agree. We need to keep you as stress free as possible. And I'm still trying to wrap my mind around it."
"I'm still mad at you."
"I know, but we have something else to focus on now. So I guess I'll take a break too because you're my priority."
"Hmm, sure hasn't felt that way as of lately."
"And I'm going to be better about that. I got my ass handed to me by you, my parents, Urban, and Clay. I know I haven't been the best husband towards you and that needs to change. I never ever want you to feel like that ever again. You are literally the most important person in my life and I need to treat you like you are."
"It's not only you, I have things to work on as well." 
"And we'll get there but for right now we have them to focus on. Did they tell you the gender when you went to your appointment?"
"It's still too early to tell. I think I can find out in a few more weeks. Maybe we’ll give the envelope to Dani so only she knows. We can do a gender reveal party, that would be cute."
"Okay."
"Oh, babe? Can you do something for me?"
"Anything, what do you need?"
"I was supposed to go to Dua's show tonight in Atlanta and I'm not feeling up to it. Can you go for me? I don't want her to think I forgot or something."
"I'm not…"
"You can leave me for one night. Urban will stay with me and I'll call Dani."
"Okay, I'll go, but I'm coming right back."
"Okay, thank you." 
"Of course but I need you to sleep, baby."
"My mind won't slow down. I just…. I want to because I'm exhausted but…"
"Come here."
Jack moved you closer to him and now your head was laying on his chest.
"This works every time. You'll be out in ten minutes."
All Jack did was rub small circles on your back and sure enough you had fallen asleep. 
Three days later, you woke up to the news of Dua and Jack apparently dating on your timeline on instagram.
"They cannot be serious. They know I'm married to you so what the hell?"
“They just want something to talk about, so let them. Obviously they’re looking for something since we called off the wedding. Let them speculate all they want. Aren’t you forgetting something?”
“What?”
“The Harlows don’t clear up rumors. If that’s what they want to believe, let them. But I mean seriously? Why did they put you instead of me? It would have made more sense.”
“Baby, not helping.”
“Did I lie?”
“They did it because they saw us backstage together at her show and of course they took it and ran with it. Oh, and she definitely was not excited to see me and that’s what made me facetime you.”
“Oh, shit. I have an idea.”
“Oh no.”
“If they want to talk so much about things that they don’t know, let’s give them something to talk about.”
“Baby…..”
“Run with it and troll in the comments and I’m about to call Bryson.”
“WHAT???!”
“We need all of the distraction that we can get to keep them from finding out that I’m pregnant for the time being and this is the perfect distraction. There’s a movie premiere coming up and he can go with me to L.A. and then I’ll come back home. I’ll do my New Year's Eve performance with Miley and then I’m going ghost.”
“Neelam and Brandi need to know before they want to kill us.”
“Already done.” You said as you finished typing the text message. 
You were currently laying down upstairs and eating fruit that was propped up on your now protruding belly. It was a very small bump, but it was there.
You then heard Curse’s voice and her talking to Jack and Urban since the door to your bedroom was wide open. 
And she had asked for you.
“I need to talk to her, I just… this has gone on for too long.”
“Yasmin, wait!”
“Wait for what? What in the world are you two hiding and being so protective of her for? I mean you’re protective of her anyway, but now it’s like the two of you are on overdrive.”
You then sent a text to Urban to let him know to send her upstairs so that the two of you could talk. Even though the two of you had been interacting on social media, you never really talked about what happened and what had gone down between the two of you. You quickly covered your stomach with one of Jack’s New Balance sweatshirts that you were wearing as you heard her footsteps.
She made her way into the bedroom, but you knew she was hesitant.
“Come sit.” You quietly said and moved your many snacks off the bed. Jack would kill you for getting so many crumbs everywhere later, but he was just happy that you were eating healthy.
She did as she was told and it was quiet for a few minutes until she broke it.
“I’m sorry and I know that doesn’t even begin to cover it. I’m sorry it also took me this long to come and talk to you about it with just the two of us. I was just so mad and so upset and I… something similar happened in my last relationship and all I got were flashbacks. So once again, I knew deep down that you would never do that to Urban and I just feel so horrible about the whole thing. You didn’t deserve that.”
“I forgive you.”
“I… wait, what? Just like that? That was too easy. Don’t you want to scream at me?”
“Yes, like that. I’m trying this new thing where I don’t want to cause myself to be under a lot of stress and your explanation made sense. Just know that I would never ever hurt you or Urban that way.”
“There’s something different about you.”
Oh shit.
“Different how? What do you mean?”
“I literally had to fight tooth and nail to get up here to see you. I know that they are both very protective of you but what I just saw was on another level.”
“Hmm.” You said while taking a drink of your sparkling water. 
“Y/N….. are you pregnant? That would be the only thing that would make sense. You canceled your tour, you’re back home, and….”
All you did was simply lift up your sweatshirt to show her.
“OH MY FUCKING SHIT I WAS RIGHT!”
“But it’s not just one.”
“Come again?”
“There’s three.”
“Holy shit. Did Jack faint when you told him?”
“I was scared shitless so he found out through a text message because I was still mad at him about something, but Urban told me he thought he was going to. Thank goodness he was there with him.”
“And that was all natural? Like no IVF?”
“No, besides my mom is a triplet. She flipped her shit too when I told her.”
“Wow, you lost one, but gained three. That’s a blessing.”
“It is, even though I didn’t see it that way before when I first found out.”
“Well, I’ll be here to help you every step of the way too.”
“And I appreciate you. I already have to deal with two grown babies downstairs and now I’m going to have three more?”
“Ehh, they’re going to have to learn how to fend for themselves from now on.”
“Yasmin, we can’t be talking about those two idiots downstairs because that will never be a reality.”
“WHAT DID YOU JUST CALL US?”
“STOP FUCKING EAVESDROPPING URBAN HENRY!”
“I HAD TO MAKE SURE MY GIRLS WERE OKAY!”
“WE’RE FINE, NOW ORDER US PIZZA.”
“BABY, NO! TOO GREASY!”
“JACKMAN! BABY NUMBER TWO WANTS IT SO GET IT!”
“FINE!”
“That man can never tell you no.”
“Mm hmm and just wait if we have girls, it’s going to be ten times worse. Especially if they look like me.”
After you had spent the day with Yasmin, she took it upon herself to make you a care package with all your favorite foods (that you could still have) with the help of Urban. She also added bath bombs, candles, a few pregnancy books, and even three matching onesies.
Not wanting to take a bath by yourself, you dragged your husband into the bathroom with you so you could put one of the bath bombs to good use. You were currently laying on his chest when he got an alert saying that someone was outside the house at the front door.
You knew it wasn’t Urban seeing as he went out with Yasmin, so you were confused as to who it could be.
And then you heard her voice through the speaker. 
"Jack open the fucking door and let me see my baby cousin since neither of you are answering your phones. If not, I will find a way inside." 
“Is that? Is that Nicole?!”
“She doesn’t know, does she?” Jack asked and you looked up at him to shake your head no.
“Baby, out of all people you should have told her because you know she constantly wants to terrorize me on a daily basis. And the fact that she hasn’t seen you? She’s going to think I kidnapped you.”
Before you could respond to him, you heard her voice once again.
“Fine. That’s it. Since nobody's answering me, I’m bringing in back up. Private Garden is now on their way too because they’re concerned about the two of you.”
“Oh, shit.”

Tumblr media
“I’m going to cuff her, just you wait” you hear Mark say from beside you. While you're too busy trying to understand the notes you took down yourself and still not understand a thing, your bestfriend has his own distractions.
“Who?” you ask without looking up
“Aeri, the new transfer” Mark answers swiftly
“Like you would have a chance with her, it’s too early for your delusions Min” you call his nickname. Min, from his name Minhyung. Most people call him that, or Mark. But when it's just the two of you talking you mostly refer to him as Min.
“What? It’s not a delusion. We have like a lot in common” he reasons out, letting your eyes roll at his reasoning. You finally look up at him, and ask
“Oh yea like what?”
“We’re both exchange students” you shoot him a deadpanned look, waiting for him to say something else
“You moved here 11 years ago”
"So?"
"You know what if that's what you believe, go. I'm not going to crush your feelings this time. If you want to be dumb, go and be my guest"
Mark snickers at your words, not sure if it was you showing support or teasing him.
"What are you reading anyways? Just accept your fate and focus on something else" he says, looking at your notes. The handwriting is not neat at all, only you can understand it at this point but Mark has known you long enough to read it like his own.
"Dude, are you studying for the exam tomorrow?" he asks
"Yea why?"
"This is the wrong chapter"
"Motherfucker"
Turns out Mark was right, you were reading the wrong chapter all along. After having a mini freak out upon realizing that and realizing you didn't have enough time to cram a semester worth of lesson in one night, Mark had to calm you down and make sure you don't cry the rest of the night instead.
He made sure to buy dinner for the both of you before he walked you back to your dorm, leaving a pack of gummy bears in your bag for you to find later because he knows you'll probably pull an all nighter.
The next time you see each other is after the exam, your eyes were swollen either from the lack of sleep or from crying that Mark is not sure of.
"You look like shit"
"Thank you, like I didn't already know that"
He passes the coffee he got you before taking your bag and slinging it on his shoulder, "How did the exam go?"
"Good, better than I expected" you mumbled, taking a sip of your much deserved coffee "Thank you" you tell him, referring to the coffee.
"So now that you're a free woman, there's a party later"
"I know where this is going, I haven't slept since Monday. A party is the least of my priority right now, Min"
You do feel very drained right now and you haven't slept a wink, exam seasons got you staying up all night and crying in between the 15 minute breaks. The only reason you haven't lost the last of your sanity is because of the human walking beside you.
You and Mark may argue a lot but you have each other's back no matter what. He's your bestfriend, he's your mediator, you're his voice of reason.
"You can nap before the party. You deserve to relax after this stressful week" he says, stepping behind you to massage your shoulders to convince you further.
"You stress me every week, what's the real reason you want to go"
"I may have heard Aeri is going"
"We're still on that?"
"It hasn't been a week since I told you that and yes, I'm still into her. So what you do say?" he looks over your shoulder, meeting your eyes to look at you directly because he knows you can never say no this way to him.
"Why invite your bestfriend at a party you want to meet the girl you like?"
"Because"
"Because what??"
"Who would hype me up? I can already see myself chickening out, but if you're there then you can convince me"
You can only think of all the times you convinced him to do something stupid because when it comes to you, Mark can be pretty gullible. That makes you feel proud knowing he trust you but also that makes him an easy target for your pranks.
"Convince you to make a total fool of yourself? Hell yes I'm in"
A couple of hours later, Mark and you enter the party side by side. Already seeing a couple of familiar faces in the crowd.
You made your way through the crowd until you saw your other friends, "Finally, they show up" Haechan shouts, immediately passing a shot glass to you and then Mark
"To catch you up, we already started so you better get going" he tells the two of you, pushing the shot glasses towards your faces
"I'll have only one, and his also because he's driving tonight" you say taking the glass from Mark before he can say anything. Then you shoot your head back, drinking the shots simultaneously and earning cheers from the two boys. Mark already too distracted looking around hoping to spot the reason why he came here tonight.
"Damn woman, how are you not cuffed down yet?" Haechan jokes
"You're asking that when he's standing right here?" Jeno butts in, throwing an arm around Mark.
Of course they would bring that up whenever they can. Those two don't believe a boy and a girl can stay in a platonic relationship. Swearing you and Mark are meant for each other but too scared to admit it. The old but beloved bestfriends to lovers trope, Haechan calls it.
"He's only standing here at this party to cuff someone and that woman is not me, luckily. Have you seen Aeri?" you ask Haechan,
"I think I saw her talking to Dery outside" you then turn to Mark, dusting off his jacket for no reason. Just to boost his confidence, you think.
"Go do what we went out here for, and make it quick. If you don't get her number by the end of this night, I'm shaving your seagull eyebrows in your sleep. Got it?"
Mark chuckles at your empty threat, he knows you only said that to not make him nervous and it works everytime.
"Yes ma'am. For you, I'll be a taken man by the end of this month"
"Let's not get ahead of ourselves, you're hot but not that hot. Okay now go before they hand me another shot" then you're pushing him towards the direction of the backyard door.
Meanwhile, Haechan and Jeno watch the two of you like it's a live action drama happening infront of them where the two lead characters are bestfriends who swore they don't feel anything for eacth other only to end up together in the end.
"What the fuck was that?" Haechan ask after Mark walks off, turning to face the two boys
"What?"
"The sexual tension was killing me, you swear you two haven't kissed?" he asks back, you shake your head as an answer "No, we haven't and will never"
"I get that you guys are just bestfriends and swear it's nothing more than that, but did you just call him hot?" Jeno ask you
"Yes, I have eyes. I call them as I see them"
"And you say you're not into him?"
"Do I look like I'm into him?"
"Yes" they answer at the same time, shaking your head at them
"It's not like that, I already told you that. I've known Mark since we were kids. That's the same kid who looked like a chipmunk with glasses" you tell them
"More reason why you like him! You've him at his worst, not sure about his best but you're the one who's been there for him. It's the perfect plot for the most cliché love story" Haechan says dramatically
"I'm afraid this book is not how it ends, can you just pass me another shot"
That night ended in different ways, for starters you got so drunk you forgot how you got home. All you can remember was Haechan daring you to jump on the trampoline and do a back flip, you can't remember if you did it or not.
Mark's night however wasn't as exciting, yes he did get to talk to Aeri but nothing more than a few words. Not enough for her to peak interest in him, there was a bunch of other people with them so he couldn't exactly just talk to her and he didn't want to ruin the fun. So instead he found himself walking back ready to admit his defeat to you and accept his fate of having his eyebrows shaved only to find you on the grass laughing your ass off.
Turns out Haechan dared you to do a backflip but Jeno still had some of his common sense and tried to stop you, and by that he meant tackling you off the trampoline and down on the ground.
Mark helps you up from the ground, dusting your clothes to rid of the grass. Holding you by the arm while you sway on your feet clearly intoxicated.
"You're done for the night, no more leaving you alone with them" he tells you as if he was scolding a child
"Boo, you're no fun. Just say you're jealous" Haechan tells him, poking Mark's back
"Shush, don't tease him. Angry Mark is scary" you whisper shout, oh yess you're definitely drunk
"Let's get the three of you home, Jeno drag Haechan please"
And that's how it ended. Mark dropped the two boys first before he drove you back at your dorm.
"So how did it go?" you spoke all of a sudden, fighting the sleepiness off to do your duty as the nosy bestfriend
"Good"
"You didn't get her number did you?"
"Nope"
Tumblr media
It wasn't the last time Mark dragged you somewhere in hopes of finally talking to Aeri. And all the other attempts always end up a fail like the universe just doesn't want him to succeed.
He also has become a regular at the library where you spend most of your time when you're not with him. He may have heard that Aeri comes here sometimes so why not give it a shot. He prefers studying in his own room where he can blast music, while you prefer the quiet atmosphere here.
"It helps me focus" you tell him when he asked you why you liked studying here when you can just do it at the comfort of your own dorm or his.
"I'm going home for the weekend, by the way. Want to come?" Mark ask you, remembering his mom asking him to ask you.
"And you tell me only now when it's Saturday tomorrow?" you ask back
"I'll pick you up at 3am?"
"Minhyung, I'm going to kill you" that's a yes. He just smiles and give your cheek a pinch then turning his attention back to his laptop, since he's already might as well get some work done.
Like he said, he did show up at your doorstep at 3am. Handing him your bag for the weekend, eyes half closed face bare.
"Make this weekend worth my while, Min or I will seriously shave your brows this time" you threaten him
"Yea yea, I'll get you your favorite cookies back home"
While most people will stay up with the driver on a long trip, you where back to dreamland a few minutes after Mark drove off. He passed a hoodie and a blanket over to you and the next second you were out.
Instead of waking you up, Mark just turns on the music loud enough to keep him awake but low enough not to disturb your sleep. But really it doesn't matter, he can be playing Bohemian Rhapsody on full volume you'll still sleep through it.
When the of you arrived at Mark's childhood home, his mom was already waiting by the door. Her smile doubling as she sees you exiting the passenger side, "Y/N! I'm so glad you made it!" she says with open arms. You walk over to give her a hug.
She's like a mom to you, whenever your parent's went on holidays or work trips they would always leave you with Mark's parents. The two of you weren't kidding when you say you spent a lot of your childhood together.
"You two must be tired from the drive, why don't you eat breakfast then rest for a bit?" she tells you, when Mark walks towards the door his mom hugs him too.
"Sounds good, thank you"
"I made your favorite cookies by the way, Mark made sure I didn't forget" she tells you with a smile, "Really?" you asked excitedly, and Mark thinks it was worth bugging his mom over the phone last night.
It was a great way to detox from all the stress from university, the rest of the weekend you relaxed as much as you can. Slept in without a worry about anything, you only wish this weekend lasted longer.
"Mom, you need to let us go. We won't make it in time" Mark tells his mom who is too busy smothering him, you jsut smile at the mother-son interaction happening infront of you.
"You two have a safe drive back" his dad says, giving Mark a quick hug too.
"Don't be a stranger, I'll tell your parents you rested well this weekend" Mark's mom tells you, you thank her again before giving her one last hug and saying bye to his dad too.
"Can we just not go back to school?"
"We can, but then what would we do? and I can't leave the plants to Haechan, they will die" Mark says, that made you laugh
"Why though? something bothering you?" he adds
"Nothing, I just had fun this weekend. I haven't slept that good since I moved in my dorm" you tell him
"You're still having trouble with sleeping? I told you just call me, I can bore you to sleep"
"I'm sure but I'm not going to call you every night when I can't sleep"
"Nonsense, I already sleep late anyways"
You didn't mean to let your mind wander but for the first time ever in your history of friendship with Mark, you let your mind think would it be different if he wasn't just your friend. Haechan and Jeno's words echoing inside your head.
Mark's words just then made you think about it but then you shook those thoughts away quickly as they came.
Tumblr media
“Wait hold up, you two talk about that?”
“You haven’t?”
Haechan looks at you with disbelief, silently asking if you were being serious
"Yo Jeno! If i get bitten by a snake on my dong will you suck the venom out?" Haechan asks Jeno who just arrived. You're currently over at Haechan and Mark's place since you had to finish a project you were doing with Haechan, Jeno is just a regular visitor here.
"What the fuck? No" Jeno answered, confused with the context of his friend's question
"But like, it's an emergency" you say
"Still no, I'm sorry but you're dying my friend" Jeno tells Haechan
"Who's dying?" Mark asks, finally getting home from his last class. He knew you were here hence why he choose to order food on his way home.
"Jeno" you and Haechan answered at the same time
"Would you do it for him?" you weren't looking at Jeno so you didn't check if he was asking you or Haechan
"No..."
"I mean"
Jeno looks back and forth between you and Haechan, Mark is in the kitchen unboxing the food he got for the group.
"Y/N!? Is this what you two were talking about?" Jeno ask the two of you
"Talk about what?" Mark curiously asks, walking back to the living where the three of you were. Putting the chicken and pizza on the coffee table before taking a seat on the floor beside your legs.
"If you get bitten by a snake on your-"
"I'd rather not talk about it infront of your dinner, thank you very much" Haechan cuts you off
"I'd rather not have that image in my head" Jeno adds
"What?" Mark asks, you just shake your head and take the slice of pizza he just took a bit of
"Nothing, let's just say you're the only one not dying here" you answer him.
You and Haechan finished late. Before you go back to your dorm, you checked on Mark to see him also busy with something. Sitting hunched back on his desk,
"Your back will hurt, stop slouching" you tell him, walking towards where he was sitting
"You sound like me when I scold Haechan. You two done?" he ask, looking up at you
"Mhm, I should go it's late" it's past midnight already. Jeno went home after dinner while you and Haechan worked on your project. Mark was waiting for you finish so he can drive you back, when he thinks of something
"Why don't you just stay here for the night?" he asks you
"Huh?"
"Stay for the night, it's late and you probably will have hard time sleeping once you get home. You can borrow my clothes" he says, already walking towards his closet to grab you a pair of shirt and sweats for the night
"Do I have any say in this?" you ask
"Just say yes, Y/N. It's late, you're tired but you'll probably stay up all night if you go home now. If you stay here I can make sure you're going to get some sleep" Mark tell you, then hands you his shirt and sweats.
"Go change, I'll sleep on the couch"
When you got back from the bathroom now changed in Mark's clothes, he's still slumped over his desk. "You should call it a night, too. I can take the couch"
He turns his chair around to face you, shaking his head "Nonsense, go sleep I'll be done in like 5 minutes"
"Then just sleep here, there's enough room for the two of us. This is not the ending of titanic"
He chuckles at your statement, watching you get cozy under his covers. This made him want to call it a night and cuddle in with you, that very thought confused him in different ways.
One, it confused him how thinking about cuddling you seemed so natural. And two, it confused him how it wasn't weird at all. To him atleast.
He shoots you quick smile before turning back to his table to finish his work. More than five minutes passed when he finally finished, turning of his laptop and desk lamp before turning to check on you only to see you quietly scrolling on your phone.
"What did I say? Go to sleep, dummy"
"Was waiting for you, c'mere" you say while opening the blanket for him. He didn't even say no, he didn't say anything. It's like his body was on auto-pilot. Like you're the one in control. He didn't mind it one bit.
Mark turns off the lights first before settling beside you, he lays his head on the pillow beside yours. You send him a sleepy smile, mirroring your actions.
"You need to go to sleep, missy"
"I'm trying, believe me"
"What usually helps you sleep at night?" he ask, both of you were whispering even though no one would hear you in his room. It was past midnight, the only light coming from the lamppost outside his window.
"I cuddle something, usually my favorite pillow" you mumble, you'd be embarrassed to admit you still need to hug something when you go to sleep but you're talking to Mark. You didn't mind showing and telling him everything about you because you know he'd stay after everything.
"Cuddle me" he say without missing a beat. And for a couple of seconds the two of you just stare at each other, waiting for something. Maybe for the other person to say something.
"Uh I mean I don't want you to be uncomfortable, my head's a bit heavy" you tell but he just chuckles back at you, opening his arms as if inviting you to come to him if you wanted.
"My head's bigger than yours, come on. Your eyes are about to close, why are you fighting it"
"I'm not, it's my mind that won't shut up"
"Then don't think, just listen to me. I'll keep on talking or humming or something until you fall asleep" this time he pulls on your arm, making you move from one side of his bed over to him. Leaving you no choice but rest your head on his chest. His heart drumming under your ears, like your personal white noise machine.
"You're warm" you mumble, cuddling against his chest more because he feels warm. You've never cuddled like this before, why haven't you cuddled like this before?
Oh right, because friends don't do things like this. Once again, Haecha and Jeno's word bounce around your head. Making you question your feelings for your bestfriend.
"Can you relax? I can tell you're still thinking about something, just... listen to my breathing or something" he tells you, this time you feel his hand run through your hair making you more sleepy.
And you listen, listen to him. Listen to his heart. The loud thoughts in your head now just mere background noise. All forgotten.
Tumblr media
"I'm going to tell you something, but you're not allowed to tell me I told you so"
Jeno looks back at you confused. You popped out of nowhere, now taking the vacant seat in front of him.
"Uh okay"
"And you can't tell Haechan or Mark. Swear it" you tell him
"Okay, I swear. Are we scheming them or what?"
You opened your mouth to speak, repeating the action one two three times but the words can't seem to come out.
"I can't say it"
"Why? Did you run overe someone? Did you forget to water Mark's plants?" he ask again
"No, I didn't. It's not like that. I can't say it because I can't believe it myself and maybe it's not even real. Maybe I'm just confused or something. Maybe I'm sick, yeah I think I'm sick. Am I sick?" you ask him, pulling his hand to lay it on your forehead
"No, but you are starting to scare me."
"I'm starting to scare myself too!"
"Why???"
"Because I think I'm in love with my bestfriend"
That got the two of you quiet. You can't believe you just said that out loud, and now that it's out in the world you can't believe you might be inlove with your bestfriend, Mark. The guy you've known your whole life. The same guy you swore you will never see as someone who's more than a friend.
Jeno was also caught by surprise, he did expect it to happen at some point but he thought it would be Mark realizing it first before you. And he didn't think he'd be the first one to know. Now he has to hide this from Mark and worse, Haechan.
"There you two are, I was looking for you! I have some great news" Mark says, surprising you and Jeno. Sending him a look which he understood.
"What?" you ask, turning to look at Mark who's now sitting beside you.
"I finally got Aeri's number, and get this we're going out this Friday night" he says with the biggest smile on his face.
You didn't even hesitate, immediately shooting his a smile back. "No way, you finally grew the balls to do it. Who would've thought" you joke
"What did I say, I'll be cuffed down before this month ends. Now I just need your help to think about where I should take her, dude are you okay?" he asks Jeno, notiching the guy has not said a word since he arrived.
Mark wonders if he interrupted something, you did look like you were in the middle of a serious talk. You tried to cover it but he did notice the look on your face when he arrived. He didn't want to push it right now, leaving a mental note to ask you about it later instead.
"Me? Yeah totally. I just remember about this thing I forgot back at the library. I should go there and get it before someone else takes it"
"I'll go too, I need this book for my next exam" you say, already slinging your bag on your shoulder. Standing up from your seat.
"I'll see you later, bye" you tell Mark quickly before stalking away, leaving a confused Mark behind. He turns to the other guy also watching your retreating figure.
"Did something happen?" he ask Jeno, "Huh? No, I don't know. I'm gonna go. Bye hyung" Jeno smiles at him before waving goodbye, walking the same direction you went to.
That was the last time Mark saw you, after that you kind of went into hiding. Always coming up with an excuse to not see him: whether you're busy with another project, you're sick at home, you're on your period and too tired to leave your dorm. At this point you're running out of minor injuries to use as an excuse.
Friday came and went, you didn't have the strength to call him and ask him about the date. You really can't invest in his love life when you're having trouble with yours. Well technically yours is one sided.
You just got back from the cafe you found jus tthis week in your attempt to spend less time on campus since you know you're most likely to bump into Mark there. So instead you found a quaint cafe outside campus and made it your new study place. What you didn't expect though was to find your bestfriend standing outside your dorm room.
Mark heard footsteps coming down the hallway, looking up from his phone to see you standing on the other end. It's been almost 2 weeks since he last talked to you, apart from the few texts he received from you this has been the longest time he's been away from you.
"Hey, were you out?" he ask when you got to him
"Yeah, I was studying"
"I was at the library. but I couldn't find you" he tells you, right off the bat he could tell something was wrong. You won't even look him in the eye right now.
"I was studying some place else"
"Oh okay, is something wrong? Are you okay?" he ask again, now he's worried.
"Me? Yea no I'm fine. Just busy and tired" now that you mention it, he notices the dark circles under your eyes. You're still beautiful despite that, but he could tell you haven't had proper sleep probably a couple of days now.
"Have you been sleeping okay?"
"I'm good, why'd you ask?"
"Nothing, I'm just worried. You just said the other day you had a massive headache, you should get some rest. Did you eat dinner already? I can go grab some for us before you call it a night" he suggest, ready to run down the nearest restaurant but you shake your head at him
"I already ate, I think I'll just call it a night. I'm tired. I'll call you later" you tell him, opening the door to your dorm. Waving goodbye to him before closing it, leaving a very worried Mark on the other side.
Something is definitely up with you and he's not going to rest tonight until he figures it out. The last person he saw you with was Jeno, so he texts the younger guy asking his whereabouts. It turns out Jeno is over at his and Haechan's place.
He made his way back home, seeking for answers. When he got there, he calls for Jeno.
"What's up?" Jeno asks
"What happened between you and Y/N?"
"Huh?" Jeno asks back, confused. Meanwhile Haechan pauses the game him and Jeno were playing to join the conversation
"Did something happened?" Haechan asks
"Yea well the last time I saw her she was talking to Jeno, you two looked like you were having a serious conversation then she walks off. Then after that she's been avoiding me" Mark explains, arms flailing around. Clearly frustrated with the situation.
"Why did you say she's avoiding you? Maybe she's just busy?" Haechan asks again, "We took the CSAT's at the same time, believe me even if she's that busy she's not going to avoid me like this"
"And you're assuming that based off of that?"
"I just know something's wrong okay?! I just don't know what it is" Mark frustratedly says, voice rising a bit. Meanwhile Jeno stays quiet. He promised to keep quiet so that's what he's doing.
Haechan looks over at him, immediately he could tell Jeno knows something
"Speak, I can tell you're hiding something" Haechan tells him, Jeno just shakes his head
"Dude, what?? So you know something?" Mark says
"I promised not to tell, especially the two of you" Jeno finally speaks, "So she did say something??" Mark prods even further
"I can't say it, I swore to Y/N I won't"
"What can't you say to me and Mark hyung? Haechan's the one to ask this time, making the pieces fit together in his head. And when it did, it's like a light bulb turned on in his head.
"OH MY GOD!" Haechan says catching both boys' attention
"Haechan no!" Jeno says
"What what??" Maark says
Haechan looks back and forth between the two guys, then stopping at Mark. "I don't know either but I think I do"
"Then tell me!!!!"
"No! Because if what I think is right then you would want to hear this from Y/N" Haechan says, Jeno lets out the breath he was holding.
Mark couldn't wait another day to talk to you, even though he promised he'd let you rest first he can't just sleep tonight without knowing.
That's how he found himself standing outside your door again, ringing the doorbell thrice like he always would. When you opened the door, rubbing the sleep out of your eyes.
"Mark? Is everything okay?" you ask, confused why he'd be out here this time of the night
"Sorry for waking you up but I just can't sleep tonight knowing something's not right with us. Are we okay?" he ask you.
This was enough to fully wake you, opening the door for him fully to let him in. You wait until you're inside before you face him again,
"I just needed some time off, I guess" you tell him
"Why?"
"Well, you said you had a date with Aeri. I didn't want to get in between that, you can't be spending that much time with me once you get a girlfriend. I'm not going to be that kind of bestfriend, Mark"
Your explanation although very valid, did not make any sense to him. Because now when you say things like him getting a girlfriend, he don't see Aeri beside him or any other girl.
The only person he can picture beside him is you. The only person he wants to spend all his time with is you. The one he wants to take out on dates is you. When he went out on that date with Aeri, he did have a great time but the two of them thought they're better off as friends. He just never had the chance to tell you because you've been avoiding him.
"Well you don't have to worry about that, I'm not going out with Aeri"
"What?? why?? But you like her"
Now you feel guilty, wondering what could've went wrong and if you had something to do with it.
"I thought I did. I mean I like her, but only as a friend. Turns out we're better as buddies" he lets out a chuckle, watching your confused reaction
"You're still my bestfriend though, so will you tell me what's wrong?" he asks, taking careful steps towards you until he's an arm length away
"Like I said I didn't want to intrude"
"I don't think that's just it. Jeno said-"
"Jeno said what??? Oh my god I'm going to kill him"
He just smiles at you, this is the first time you said more that a few words to thim and the first time you sounded like the usual you.
"Actually he didn't say anything, then Haechan somehow figured it out and say I should hear it from you instead" he looks at you, observing your face. Committing every detail he's been looking at for years. This time with more adoration and love in his eyes.
"What's wrong with you?" you ask, noticing the way he's looking at you.
"Nothing, just thinking about something completely stupid" it's not stupid. He was thinking about all this time he didn't any other girl, he always have liked you but too scared to say something about it. So instead he searched for something similar.
But of course no one could even come close. There's after all, only one of you for him.
"What?"
"You tell me first what Haechan and Jeno know then I'll tell you"
Now that he's the one asking, you're not sure how to get out of this one. He got you cornered with no place to go.
"I'll tell you but you have to promise me if it ever gets awkward after this you'll still be my bestfriend" you tell him,
"Of course"
Instead of telling him in words, it's like a higher power possessed you. Standing on your tiptoe, resting both hands on his shoulder. Pressing your lips flat against his.
You can tell just how shocked he was, frozen in his place. Your blood runs cold thinking you just ruined your friendship forever but then you feel his arms snake around your waist pulling you closer towards him. Mark tilts his head a bit to the side, deepening the kiss. Smiling against your lips, he can taste the strawberry flavored chapstick you always use.
This should feel weird and foreign to the both of you, but no. This moment feels so right. Being in each other's arms makes so much sense, like this was how it should've been all along.
Mark takes a few steps forward making you walk back until your back is against the door, still lips attached together. Eventually the two of you had to break apart to take a breath, your eyes still closed you feel him kiss your lids then your nose then he kisses you on your jaw down the side of your neck. Leaning your head on the side to give him more space because right now his lips feel so good against your skin you just wanted more.
He gives you a few more kisses before leaning away to look at you with that lovestruck look on his face.
"I know this might seem a bit too fast but a decade worth of memory with you seems enough, can I be your boyfriend?"
This time you kiss him again, shorter this time though so you can give him your answer "Of course, who else would I make more memories with. Plus I love your mom too much"
Mark smiles at your words, finally finally all the pieces fall into place. Finally he got the girl.
"What did I say, told you I'd be a cuffed man"
"Shut up and just kiss me"
"Yes ma'am

You're just like an angel pt5
Tumblr media
After breakfast, Miguel took your plate and washed it. The silence deafening and you could cut the tension in the room until the device on his wrist rang. He shot another web at you which covered your mouth.
"Yes?" He asked as a small projection of the lady you'd seen a few days ago appeared.
"I've been trying to get in contact with you for ages, why haven't you been answering?" She asked.
"I've been busy" he replied.
"Yeah I was told, were you aware an anomaly escaped the facility last night?" She asked him.
"Is that so?" He asked. He was certain he'd covered his tracks, so why was she alerted about an escape?
"Yes, I'm on my way to catch them now" she explained. This wasn't good.
"Are you sure that it's an anomaly?" He asked. She looked at him weirdly before speaking.
"What do you mean, am I sure? you said this tech is never incorrect" she asked.
"I know I said that but recently it's had a few kinks so LYLA and I have been working on a patch for a couple of issues, that's why I've been so busy" he lied.
"Well, I'm going to double-check, just in case," she said. He hung up before pulling you into a room and using his webs to restrain your arms and legs before putting you on the carpeted floor.
"This won't be for long, I'll remove those restraints as soon as she's gone," he told you before closing the door behind you, leaving you in the dark. The only light was the light that peered through the door frame.
You waited for what seemed like hours before a doorbell rang and that lady's voice could be heard.
"Oh I didn't realize this was your house," she said.
You tried to scream loud as you could to get her attention but the webbing muffled all your attempts.
"Yes, it is, guess my watch must be giving out a dud transmission" Miguel replied.
"Actually what time did it indicate that the anomaly left?" He asked.
"Around 22 o'clock" she replied.
"That was when I left, definitely must be my watch" he explained.
"Well I hope you can sort out those issues soon Miguel," she said.
"Yes I'll put it as my top priority" he replied before what you assumed was the front door closed, then the door to the room you were in opened. Miguel towered over you, truly settling into the hopelessness you were currently in.
He kneeled before you and held your chin in his hand as the talons on his fingers appeared, you could feel them threatening to pierce the skin on your face as he held you in place as he carefully dragged one of his fingers across your lips as sliced away the webbing. His crimson eyes looking down at you, longing for something.
"You're so beautiful" he commented before he made quick work of the rest of the webbing.
"You make me feel sick" you snarled in response. Revolted by his presence.
"You'll feel the same way soon dear, you just need time," he told you as if you were a child.
🕷🕷🕷
Whenever he left you took the opportunity to get your hands on any electronics in the house. You inspected them and figured out what they did. All of it made you feel exceptionally old, like how a grandmother would feel using a computer for the first time.
Right now you had your hands on one of his tablets. Looking through it to see if he might have useful information for you. A blueprint of the device on his wrist, the location of that lair of his, and any other hints as to how to go home.
Unfortunately, it seemed like this was his personal one for home. The only thing you managed to find were house listings on a real-estate site, was he planning of moving? If so, that wouldn't be good. You'd have to start investigating all over again.
Slowly you began to figure out what each thing did. You should have tried calling the police but that would not help your situation, if anything it would make your chances of returning to your dimension a lot slimmer.
Sometimes you wondered if circumstances between you and Miguel had been different, would you have fallen in love with him? From what others said about relationships he was what people would consider a catch. He cooked, cleaned, and seemed like a family-oriented man from the photos on display.
Perhaps his loss led him to do what he did, didn't excuse him from what he did to you but if you tried to talk him through his loss he might let you go, but you'd need to have some good psychological skills to do that which you doubt you have.
The door opened and you quickly hid it under the pillow beside you.
"You realize I get notifications on my phone whenever you use any of my devices," he said as he walked in the door with a bag in hand. You sat still flustered that you were caught.
"Sorry I was out so late, I brought home some Italian" he explained as he walked to the table and unpacked the paper bag, pulling out a few cardboard containers.
"I got us some arancini and garlic bread to share" he continued.
"Thank you" you halfheartedly said.
"What's the matter? If it's about me being late I promise I'll take you out for a day" he said almost like clockwork. This is exactly what he'd tell his wife and daughter in this universe. After he'd found his family in that universe he'd quit being Spiderman and put them at the forefront of his life. He wished he could do the same thing for you but now the stakes of quitting were a lot higher.
"No it's not about that, you know exactly why," you told him.
"I can't do that," he told you.
"It's not that you can't Miguel, it's that you don't. This isn't good for either of us and I know that somewhere deep down you know this" you blew up at him.
"I'm sick of being trapped in this house, I just want to go home and see my family again," you said.
"They probably think I'm dead after all this time" you continued. It had been almost a month since you'd been trapped here.
"Just come here and have some dinner, I don't have time to talk about this," he told you.
"No, you never have time to talk about it because you don't want to hear it, you're delusional… pretending that we're a regular couple" you argued
"I don't know if this is because of the loss of your family or you've always been like this but you need to find some professional help and let me go" you continued. Then the glass dining table shattered. A vivid blue liquid poured from the wounds on his hand, his talons exposed.
"This is for your own good! If I were to send you back your life would most likely end in misery, Vultures and any other villains for that matter usually either die or get locked up for the rest of their lives!" He yelled as made his way towards you.
"And you think this is any better? Locked up in this house of yours isolated from those I love" You argued.
"I was going to bring your family here as a surprise but I haven't had the time to prepare. Would that make you happy?" He seethes. Your eyes widened in shock and your blood boiled. You stood up and looked directly up into his eyes.
"No, I don't trust you near them whatsoever" you hissed.
"If you even so much as lay a hand on one of them I'll… I'll" you warned but was unable to threaten him. There was no way you were going to let him drag your family into this mess.
"You'll what? What can you do against me?" He hissed back.
Your knuckles cracked as you clenched tightly into a white-knuckled fist. Without even thinking you had hooked him in the jaw with all the force you had. He stumbled back a little and rubbed his jaw before his blood-red eyes returned to you. That was the first time you'd managed to inflict even a slight amount of pain on him but it was enough to trigger that hair-thin temper. Without your gear you were just a bird without wings, defenseless.
Before you even had a chance to react he grabbed the collar of your shirt and hoisted you in the air, your legs dangling helplessly.
"I've been patient with you, I've tried to accommodate for you whenever I could yet after it all you still reject me! You treat me as if I was some kind of monster" he hissed through grit teeth, baring fangs you hadn’t seen before.
"Because you are!" You responded.
"You want to see a monster?! I'll show you a monster!" he howled.

"i'm yours". "sorry (i love you)" — atsumu miya x reader (2.4k words)
"what if i told you i like you?".
"i like you too".
Tumblr media
the man of your dreams
atsumu miya smells like trouble, but did that stop you from falling for him? absolutely not, you have always loved getting into messes you cannot figure out how to run away from. rationality is scolding the impulsive side of you, but people only live one life, so what is the fun if one does not enjoy it at its fullest? the thrill of trouble, or, to be precise, of falling in love with a troublemaker, gets you going.
“focus!”, the sound of a ball falling, every single step on the court — you have missed this familiar feeling, and a certain blond-haired man from the team. you wonder if he has missed you too, but opt to shrug the thought off and not entertain it anymore.  
like a mantra, everyday you keep chanting to the bold spark of hope inside of you how he will never be yours, how you should be focusing on your responsibilities instead of daydreaming. it is pointless to think about him if your affection is not reciprocated, right?
him, the man of everyone’s dreams (by that, of course, you are included). alright, that might be an exaggeration, though it might as well be the truth. you see him surrounded by eager fans every time a match ends, but can you blame them? not at all, he is charming and his bright smile makes your legs weak. 
will you let him know about this massive crush? perhaps someday, but not right now.
“how are my favorite boys doing?”, your voice is a refreshing echo that saves them from the captain’s anger. a choir of welcoming cheers erupting from the team, including meian himself (although reluctant to admit the truth, he knows you are the only one who can keep the whole of msby black jackals in order), bring a smile to your face. 
you notice exhaustion and frustration lingering on their features, hidden behind grins, and your heart clenches, realizing that they have been overworking again. of course they would, last time’s defeat was devastating, yet you were not there to comfort them. 
you are determined now. as of today, your priority is to assist the team and hope they win the upcoming nationals. it will just be a plus if atsumu, by any chance, falls for you along the way.
the one holding his heart
little do you know, your beloved is also planning his moves — and not precisely the ones he should be preparing for his matches. 
two hopeless, clueless, lovebirds. what an oblivious pair you are! 
close friends and family have noticed long ago how much adoration the both of you hold back every time you are in presence of each other. but of course, two idiots in love will not see that. neither of you realize how you beam with a different kind of happiness, how you seem caught up in a bubble of love that excludes everyone else; it’s just atsumu and y/n in their world. 
“tsumu, are you seriously trying to woo your girl with my cooking?”, the younger twin deadpans, questioning yet another one of his brother’s pretty questionable decisions. 
“she likes food, onigiri miya’s special”, atsumu is quick to defend himself and his dubious choices. will he ever win your heart with osamu’s cooking? will you ever fall in love with him? well, one thing is for sure, you seem to have fallen in love with the other miya’s culinary abilities. it seems that samu will have to play cupid for awhile.
“i would’ve said she has a good taste, but she likes ya, so i’m not sure of that anymore”, osamu is quick to shut his mouth, turning to check his sibling’s reaction.
“say what? are ya doubting her taste because she likes me?”, the blond’s outraged face is priceless (so is his unawareness).
“yeah, i said that. congratulations, ya aren’t deaf yet”.
“wait”, something akin to realization flashes through his eyes, “she likes me?!”.
“yes, i said that too”.
“no, samu! are ya hearing yourself? she likes me?! like, y/n likes me? y/n? my manager? the girl who has my heart?”, atsumu stares directly into samu’s eyes, formulating frantic asks, like a distressed kid waiting for consolation.
“heavens, shut up!”, the gray-haired grunts, exasperated, before giving in and proclaiming his next words with solemnity, “y/n, your manager, likes you”.
sorry, i love you
“fuck off, miya”, you shove him off, forcing your mind to forget the way his lips felt against yours (as if they were meant to kiss —  such shameless thought tints your ears red).
“miya, seriously?”, anyone would think atsumu miya is indignant, but no, you recognize the hurt in his pupils, “y/n, it’s tsumu for you!”.
“sorry”.
“what?”.
“i said sorry”.
“and i’m asking you why”.
you stand there in a pathetic attempt to word your emotions.  how does he know? were you that obvious? you were always afraid he wouldn’t know how much he meant to you, but you were also scared of him knowing about your crush. 
this was supposed to be a chill night out with the boys. curse whoever talked too much. you are pretty sure the blond would have never known by himself. you weren’t that obvious. yes, curse them (somewhere in the city, osamu cannot stop sneezing). 
the inquiry in atsumu’s eyes is edging you to spill everything, to swear your undying love for him, to tell him how difficult it is to suppress your feelings. but you don’t.
“it’s not the right time, tsumu”, you are pleading him to let you go.
“when?”.
“after the nationals”.
“deal”, he grins, and you know there’s no bad blood between you two.
“let’s go back, shall we?”, things will eventually fall back to their place — this thought encourages you to forget everything and just enjoy the night.
meian and kiyoomi’s knowing gazes find yours when you head back, atsumu trailing closely behind. a stern look from you signals you are not in the mood to talk about it. they get the idea, and don’t pry.
token idiot 1
“you did what?”, whatever deity help atsumu miya, because osamu miya is positively sure of how much he wants to smack his stupid twin right now.
“told her i like her, and that i know she likes me too”, he repeats, cautious, not knowing which part of what he said caused the younger’s distress, “i might have kissed her too”.
“atsumu miya!”.
“oi! shut up! don’t be so loud!”.
“god, what i’m gonna do with ya?”.
token idiot 2
“tsumu said he wasn’t asking me to be his, but he is mine”.
“and you rejected him?”, your friend (hopefully brother-in-law if things go well in the future) looks like he’s about to beat some sense into you, but you would do that too if you were him.
“i lowkey did? the nationals are more important than this”, you reply matter-of-factly, sipping on your morning coffee.
“god, what i’m gonna do with ya two?”, it’s infuriating the way you playfully smile at him, as if atsumu and you weren’t the main cause of his headache. someone save osamu miya, why would he decide to play cupid?
cupid is typing… “i give up”
nothing changed; you still handled your manager duties with diligence while he still gave his best every time he stepped into court. others would deem the failed confession a shame, but that’s because they don’t know you two. you are working harder than ever to ease the boys’ worries, you trust they will do just alright. they are your favorite boys after all. atsumu, for his part, is putting his whole soul into training, determined to prove the world msby black jackals is capable of it (and truth to be told, determined to confess his adoration for you once again. after the nationals, you promised).
“hey, are you free tonight?”, it would be a lie if osamu said he was surprised by your short message. he already knew you would want to talk about it; last time’s meeting wasn’t enough.
“come around by 8pm”, you make a mental note of his reply.
onigiri miya’s bell rings a few minutes before closing time; the owner does not have to turn around to know it is you. your favorite drink is placed on the counter in a heartbeat, and you barely manage to say  “thank you” before he takes the empty seat beside yours.
“tell me, what is going on in that pretty little head of yours?”, he tries to light up your mood with some friendly teasing.
“remember when i said my priority was to be with them until they won nationals? it still is, i think. but, i don’t know. i’ve been thinking a lot since that night, and… if i had accepted, wouldn’t it have been the best? for him and for me. i don’t know, samu. i like him so much it’s stupid. out of so many people, never thought i would fall in love with your brother”, you are a babbling mess, and osamu wonders if he had accidentally poured alcohol for you.
“look, y/n, atsumu is an airhead sometimes (you are too — he bites his tongue before these words escape), but he confessed his feelings openly. you must mean a lot to him, so don’t you worry”.
“but… what if he hates me?”.
“we are not talking about the same tsumu, are we? atsumu miya could never hate y/n”, his affirmation brings a smile to your face.
“atsumu miya could never hate y/n, atsumu miya could never hate y/n”, you repeat his words, giggling. 
osamu is now convinced he has given you alcohol; this is going to be a long night.
“he could never. plus, didn’t you guys promise each other you would talk things out after nationals?”.
“right, we did that”, you seem lost in thought.
when you wake up the next morning, tucked nicely in your bed, hangover sinks into you; your body feels sore, and your mind is fuzzy. you remember rambling to samu (bless him for being such a supportive friend) about how you are not sure what your priorities are now, you remember how you giggled like a schoolgirl when he told you atsumu could never hate you, you remember… ugh, you don’t remember anything after that.
you reach for your phone with the intention of texting osamu to show him some appreciation for bearing with you, but a confused frown appears on your face upon reading his most recent message.
“i give up — cupid osamu”.
cupid is not cupid-ing anymore
“what are you giving up?”, to say you are worried is an understatement; you are terrified you had wronged him in any way in your drunk state.
“you two. i wasn’t made to be a cupid”, his dramatic sigh comforts you, at least now you know you didn’t do anything fool enough to anger him. osamu is giving up because seeing lovesick tsumu and y/n is not doing any good to him; you guys consume his energy.
“does tsumu know?”.
“no, do you want to break the news?”, he questions, with no hint of seriousness in his voice.
“you should”, you are entertained by his antics, but don’t forget to thank him for last night’s meeting, “oh, right. i should thank you for everything”.
“no need for that, y/n. you are my future sister-in-law after all”, his smirk is irritating, and it reminds you why you fell in love with the blond instead of loving this twin. one of osamu’s hobby was (and still is) to tease you, so in the long run you developed feelings for the miya who always was on your side. atsumu miya had (and still has) smart remarks when it came (when it comes) to defend you.
osamu miya does break the news some days later, when tsumu texts him to plan his second attempt at a love confession: “cupid is not cupid-ing anymore”.
msby shenanigans
atsumu is left with no other option than to reach out to the team. the blond is met with two bored men and some confused faces in the locker room after he had asked them to stay after practice (you’re out running errands today, they can’t be caught); meian and kiyoomi seem to know more than he has ever told them, yet then again, they have always been more perceptive than him.
“tell us, how can we help?”, the captain’s unmistakable voice urges tsumu to talk.
“i like y/n”.
“that’s not news”, kiyoomi says among confused murmurs.
“omiomi, i’m not that obvious!”, the dark-haired raises an eyebrow, not bothering to tell him how noticeable his crush has been since day one.
“so?”, meian encourages the blond miya to give further explanation.
“i want to confess (again — he saves this part for himself) after nationals”.
“are we here to listen to your confession?”.
“oi, captain! smart!”, atsumu beams, and they have no heart (and no reason) to deny his request.
meian shakes his head before throwing a sympathetic look to the team, as if he were wishing them luck. msby black jackals are not used to so much sappiness, but they truly wish the best for atsumu and their manager.
can i speak to the manager?
to everyone’s (everyone but you and the team) surprise, msby wins the nationals. such a win is followed by more reporters than usual; you have no chance to act like the proud mama you are before your boys are surrounded by screams and flashes. 
“asides from training, is there any secret to your win?”, a reporter asks.
“of course. we had a common goal”, meian replies calmly.
“revenge, perhaps?”.
“taking back the first place you guys covet?”.
“is someone retiring?”.
they are all looking for dirt, hoping someone accidentally spills their next sensational headline. atsumu miya is done with this stupid interview, he lets out an enigmatic “you’ll see” before excusing the team to go back to their lockers.
“can i speak to the manager?”, he catches a glimpse of you around the corner.
“you may now”, your cheery voice makes him happier than today’s win (that’s how he knows you mean the world to him).
“what if i told you i like you?”, there’s a tint of nervousness in his hopeful voice. screw the speech he has prepared with the boys; he feels this is the right thing to say at this moment.
“i would tell you i like you too, atsumu miya”.
when your lips meet his again, everything falls back to its place.
Tumblr media
note! second attempt at a hq fic, and it's tsumu again, hope he's not too out of character in this one sOb. he strikes to me as a dense lover, slow to catch up on your signals, but he definitely makes up for it after he notices.

Doah looked at her phone screen for a few minutes before putting it down. A sight escaped from her lips as she took off her glasses and started to take her clothes off, after the long and stressing day she had, she deserved a good and relaxing shower.
Such useless matters shouldn't be her top priority now, no class reunion was worth having to travel all the way back to South Korea, specially not the Happy Class. None of those people were worth her time nor the money she'd have to spend.
No one.
The heir finally got inside the bathroom, turned on the shower making sure the water was cold - she liked to take cold showers after stressing days - and got inside the box.
Doah let out a sight of pure relief. The now twenty-three year old woman close her eyes and let her thoughts wander through the memories she once promise to forget. Perhaps she should've changed her number years ago, she concluded.
But she didn't, why?
Oh...
Right.
Because of her.
Her eyes opened. Maybe there was someone who was worth spending that amount of money for a class reunion after all.
Seong Suji.
The transfer student that changed the Happy Class and those in it. That defying charismatic girl who stood up for herself and her friends, the one who beat Baek Harin in her own game.
The girl who made Doah's heart flutter for the first time, who made her think how would it feel to kiss her lips and have her sharp gaze direct at her.
Yes, that one.
Doah turned the shower off, her vision blurred and her heart racing at the simple thought of seeing Seong Suji once again.
Maybe she should go to this class reunion, although she wasn't pleased with the idea of seeing some old faces there, it would be worth in the end if she got a chance of seeing Suji again.
Suji was worth it.
Her heart skipped a beat at the thought, Doah shook her head and grabbed the towell. After all these years and Suji still had this kind of influence on her, it was shameful, really. She lost her chance all those years ago, she knew that.
A memory flashed in her mind, a very clear one of Suji and Jaeun too close for her liking.
If she ever had any chance to begin with.
She sighed once again. She should know better, she truly should. Doah decided to think about this matter later. She needed a good night rest first.
°°°°
She was late.
Of course she was late. She was still thinking wether she should be here or not. She looked at the restaurant, it was a filthy classy one, those types of places that only rich people would frequent. It did made sense thought, when she thought about who sent the invitation.
Did they change at all?
Doah sighed, and walked in. She would regret it, she knew, but maybe it wouldn't be that big of a regret.
The first thing she noticed was they were all grown ups now. Of course they were, but it felt a bit surreal to realize that. How many years had passed again?
Her eyes analized the whole place, she saw the same people who used to frequent High School with her, the same smiles, same eyes, same people, but older.
She was already regretting it.
"It costs a lot to eat here!" She heard someone say, she thought it was a familiar voice, but more mature. When she looked at the direction of the person...
Oh. Park Jieyong. She seemed to be talking to someone else.
"It costs around 300.000 won per person." Oh Seonga answered shocked, but seemed excited.
"Are you serious?" Choi Yuhyeon said and looked around surprised.
"My boyfriend was so shocked when he heard we'll be having our reunion here!" Doah didn't quite get who said that, all these excited women's voices were all started to sound the same.
"The restaurant is what i came for!" One of them started to take pictures excitedly.
"Everything here is so photo worthy!" A high picthed exclamation was heard.
Why was she here again?
Doah walked away from these people and, again, looked around one last time. She would not spend anymore minutes in this place.
What was she expecting anyway? But, to be honest with herself, from them she didn't expect anything. She wasn't here to see anyone else, but her.
Her.
Seong Suji.
The one who she looked across the room. And she was looking at her as well.
Doah's heart fluttered in her chest. Suji still had the same effect on her after all this time, it seemed. She couldn't take her eyes off the girl, who was also staring back at her questionly.
Doah didn't quite noticed that she might be staring a bit too much until Suji asked, "Umm, got something to tell me?".
Doah blinked once, and then again. Cleared her throat and said a weak and ashamed "Hey." back at the girl.
For a few seconds she felt as if she was the same inexperienced teenager trying (and failing) to talk with a pretty girl all over again. Doah wanted to fly back to United States as soon as she could, god, she thought she could actually throw herself off the plane at this point.
Suji analized her head to toe and maybe, just maybe, Doah felt her face getting hotter because of this. Suji laughed.
"Hey." She said back at her, a small smile on her face. "You're here."
It was a statement, Doah noticed. But what it meant, she had no idea.
"I am. I was considering not coming, but... Suddenly having an excuse to get away from US was a good ideia." Doah tried to joke around, emphasis on tried.
"The states? Wow. I heard it's pretty hard to get into med school there." Suji said looking at the table, she always seemed to be deep in thought, Doah remembered that. "That's why..." She seemed to say that more to herself.
Suji was always easy and hard to read in Doah's eyes, she seemed to be less tricky, more direct instead of going around in circles like most people. So, this time, it did get Doah a bit speechless and curious. That's why what? What was she trying to say?
"So, did you come to Korea on leave of absense?" Suji finally speaked after a few seconds, she seemed to be organizing her thoughts.
"No, i'm here on a short visit." Doah answered while sitting by Suji's side. She locked eyes with the red haired girl, a smile on her face. "I fly back tonight."
She might have gone crazy, but for a single moment Doah could swear on her mother's name that she saw something flash on Suji's eyes. Something like... Disappointment? Sadness?
She heard someone clearing their throat by her side and, a bit surprised, she noticed someone sitting on that table as well. Song Jaehyung.
"Mind if i sit?" Doah decide to ask since she was a bit impolite before. It was her fault she only had eyes for Suji and sort of forgot other people's presence.
"Oh, go ahead." Jaehyung answered sipping a bit of her glass.
Doah didn't quite understand, but Jaehyung seemed to be looking at Suji sending some sort of signal. Where they close? Doah did remember Jaehyung being attached to Jaeun wherever she went, sometimes a bit too much, but she didn't have a memory of Suji and Jaehyung being so close.
Suji seemed confused, but looked back at the woman. Maybe they were indeed close after all, Doah wouldn't know.
"I'm here to see you." Doah said serving herself a glass of wine, she was always straightfoward. "I wanted to know how you were doing."
Once again, they looked at each other. Suji seemed surprised, but her eyes were shining with fondness. Doah smiled at her, a smile she could only show to Suji. And maybe Jaehyung, but she wasn't really paying attention to the woman by her side.
She saw Suji's cheeks turn slightly red.
Oh... She was blushing because of Doah? Maybe it was childish, but Doah did feel proud of that.
Suji cleared her throat and smiled back a Doah, a smile Doah could swear was the most beautiful smile she had ever seen. And maybe, just maybe, her heart fluttered once again because of Seong Suji.
"Well, i can't let your travel go to waste." Suji said putting a strand of hair behind her ear and, maybe, just maybe, Doah was admiring how beautiful she was at the moment. "So, can i have your number?"
Maybe this made Doah's heart go crazy in her chest and, just maybe, she felt her cheeks burning hot. So, she took the phone out of her pocket and extended towards Suji.
"I thought you would never ask."
°°°
The reunion wasn't that much of waste, she concluded. She got to talk with Suji for a long period of time, almost all afternoon, she might have drank a few glasses of wine admist the talking, but she was fine.
Doah also witnessed Jaehyung being a big flirt to the waitress and Suji rolling her eyes at her friend's antics. Her friend, yes, because Doah also learned that Suji and Jaehyung were, in fact, pretty close.
She did felt a pang of jealousy at that, but nothing serious.
She talked a bit about herself and how life in United States was, Suji seemed interested in her more than she thought she would be. Jaehyung also made her talk about her love life (which was nonexistent) and Seong Suji seemed to pay close attention when Doah revealed a few flings she had with some women in US.
Jaehyung seemed somewhat proud of her.
"I knew i could count on you, Seo Doah." She said at some point.
Doah also heard Jaehyung talk about Suji and Jaeun living together and, maybe, she decided to ignore the slight blush in Suji's cheeks at the mention of that girl.
Maybe, just for this few hours, Doah wanted to have some hope, even if led to nothing.
At some point, she had a call and needed to leave. Once again, she left Suji behind to take care of her own things and, once again, she hesitated at every step. She did look back, but Suji was engrossed talking about something else with Jaehyung.
Years had passed but Doah felt as if they were all still the same.
When she came back, Suji was gone.
"You know, you should give up." Jaehyung said, Doah looked at her surprise since, again, she didn't noticed the woman's presence.
"Don't say stuff like that, Jaehyung." Jiae, who appeared by Jaehyung's side, slapped the woman's arm.
"What? She's taken, i'm saying this for your own good, Seo." Jaehyung got up looking directly into Doah's eyes.
"By who? You?" Maybe she did sound a bit challenging, but it wasn't intentional.
Jaehyung only laughed at her while Jiae rolled her eyes and excused her friend. Ah, yes, Jiae was also still their friend after all these years.
No words were exchanged except a polite good bye and that was Doah's cue to leave. She grabbed her things and walked out of that restaurant lost in her thoughts.
Who was Suji with? Does she have a boyfriend? A girlfriend? Then, who was this person?
While she was asking useless questions (although she did know the answer, she just didn't want to admit it to herself) she saw a redhair talking to someone. Someone taller with black hair.
Oh.
She was foolish, she knew that. She was denying it all along, she also knew that.
Suji and Jaeun were happily talking about something, Jaeun's arm around Suji's shoulder, the look in her eyes was bright, she never saw Suji like that. She thought the smile she gave to her was the most beautiful one in the world, but the smile she was giving to Jaeun was so much brighter, honest and beautiful.
Her heart ached at that. She let herself wish that smile was given to her.
Just for a moment Doah let herself wish.
Wish Seong Suji would look at her like that. Wish that Seong Suji would smile at her like that. Wish that she could be the one with her arms around Suji's shoulder making her laugh. She wished she...
Jaeun kissed Suji briefly on the lips, both blushing and smiling from pure happiness.
She wished that.
Doah never wished to be someone so badly.
And they walked away letting her behind. Because, of course, they would. They didn't even know she was watching them from afar, that she was envying them and what they had.
No.
That she was envying Jaeun and who she had.
Doah sighed, checked the hours and called a taxi. She needed to head back to the airport. For the last time, she looked at Suji and Jaeun walking in each others arms.
She never had a chance to begin with.

18, 20, 22, 29 for fic writers ask!!! Good luck with the final push 🥰
Fanfic asks
Thanks canariie!! <3
18.What’s one of your favorite lines you’ve written in a fic?
This one comes from To Give You Shelter, and once again, the line is in bold and I've included other lines to give it more context:
“I’m sorry I’m this late,” she says, “rebuilding the Soul Society has taken priority. Nashi aren’t in season right now, but I hope it’s still sweet enough.” She eyes the array of flowers, and her smile widens a fraction. “It looks like the others came before, it must have been on their breaks. They’ve been working really hard lately, we all have.” The corners of her mouth fall. At the slight waver in her voice, she presses her lips together and takes in a deep breath. “We have a lot to do,” she continues more quietly, “much more than I think any of us realized.”
I love fics that as set right after the war, where everyone is picking up the pieces both physically and emotionally. I've writtne a few fics now about this, but To Give You Shelter is one that I've been wanting to write for a very long time. I wanted to write a moment where Momo goes to visit the grave of someone who died in the war, and it's only then she realises it's taken her so long - due to the reconstruction and having to comfort and help those who survived - to come and finally pay her respects. She knew there would be a lot to do, but it hits just how much she has had to to do, how many all of them have had to do. I felt I was able to capture that in this line.
20.What’s a favorite title for a fic you’ve written?
When the Souls Sleep and the World is Our Own. I'm not really a fan of most title I come up with to be honest. This one I feel though encapsulated what I was going for with the fic. It's the longest title I've written to now that I think about it.
22.Do you know how your fic will end before you start writing?
It honestly depends, because sometimes the ending is the first part that comes to me, and other times it's the last thing. For the latter, I can definitely struggle with the ending. I know where I want a fic to go generally, but then comes the ending and I want to make sure I'm able to wrap up all (or at least most of) what I brought up throughout the fic. There's also times where I wonder when I should stop. There's been fics where I've written a long scene of the end, that just keeps going and going because I've suddenly discovered something I can to explore, but then I stop and realise I'm more or less rambling on and on, so I cut it down to a point that seems conclusive or definitive.
My most recent struggle was with On the Shoreline, where I just couldn't write the whole resolution at the end. I wanted Toshiro to fess up everything he's feeling all in one go, but it was a scene that required him to draw things out because of the weight of what he was feeling, and I also didn't know whether to stop with him leading Momo away from the beach or them about to go eat something or with them meeting up with the others who came on the trip with them. I did end up writing up to the latter, it ultimately got cut (and may or may not make an appearance in a fic later on down the line) and went with them about to eat, showing he's finally about to go enjoy the break with Momo.
29. Share a bit from a fic you’ll never post OR from a scene that was cut from an already posted fic. (If you don’t have either, just share a random fic idea you have that you don’t plan on getting to.)
All right, an abandoned WIP it is. The working titles were...something: A Snake Coiled Around a Cat's Tail, This was written for prompts I got from @alexiethymia for Ginran a while ago (this is the fic I went with in the end). Basically, I was going to write a fic about the last time Gin and Rangiku had a proper interaction before before all hell breaks loose in the Soul Society when Ichigo and co. come to save Rukia. I also wanted to incorporate the little known fact that Rangiku knows how to do 'classical dancing' and has a special kimono for it to perform in according to Color BLEACH Plus. what this means is vague, but I took it to mean something similar to what Rukia was doing in the new year's episode or the dances that maiko or geisha can perform. In relation to this, I also have the headcanon that Rangiku doesn't often show off her dancing, so only a few people have seen her perform; one of those people is Gin.
However, I went from wanting to write one scene to Gin's progression towards leaving Rangiku, where we start off in their childhood after he gets the Shinigami robes, and ends in when he arrives Hueco Mundo just after his betrayal has been revealed.
I abandoned it because it became far too ambitious and I wasn't up for it at the time. I also wasn't 100% confident in my ability to write Gin; it can be a slippery slope where he has to be just cold enough to be Gin, but also show a softer side to Rangiku in his own 'Gin' way. I may pick it up again one day, but only if I get the right inspiration to write it.
Anyhow, the section I've chosen was what the original fic was going to be; it takes place a few days before Rukia gets brought back to the Soul Society, where Gin [knowing his time with her is coming to an end] asks Rangiku out for an evening in the Rukongai. The whole night is almost a nonevent, in that Rangiku still can't understand why Gin has been distancing himself for decades. At the end, they walk back to the Seireitei and arrive outside of Gin's quarters, where this happens:
“Don’t leave just yet,” he says. “I have a request.”
Rangiku blinks; she can’t even remember the last time he asked anything of her. “What is it?”
Rather than be amused by her confusion, he steps aside and gestures for her to come in. She knows how she must look. The right thing to do would be to refuse, it’d serve him right for deliberately putting distance between them. She even turns her ankle to go, but it’s quick to betray her, to step her foot into his room, and then the other follows. Rangiku folds her arms tight over her torso, trying to shove down the thrum of childish excitement. He’s letting her in on something for the first time in years.
When he closes the door, something changes in his smile, making it smaller. It plummets her elation to anxiety.
He doesn’t move from the door as he says, “Dance for me?”
“W-What?”
“It’s been a while since I last saw you dance.”
Rangiku raises a brow. “Since when did you like seeing me dance?”
“I always have.”
“Well, you never said anything!” She sighs. “Besides, I don’t have a fan, I’m not wearing the kimono I need, and there's no music.”
Gin considers for a moment, then he moves away from the door. He walks past her, the sleeve of his uniform brushing past hers. It's the closest he's gotten to her all night, she can even smell the faint traces of persimmons off of him. She's caught up in for a moment, and the buzz she felt before almost comes back, until she hears a drawer being opened.
She spins around, watching Gin as he rummages through a small desk, until he pulls something out and turns back to her.
He holds out a fan to her. “Then pretend the rest. Treat it as if it you’re practicing.”
She frowns down at the fan. “Why now?”
He shrugs. "I'm feeling nostalgic, I suppose."
Thanks for sending these in! :D

🙈 Need Mandarin translations/confirmations for the messages the lmk creators left ASAP 🙈
Long story short, we tried to spread the animation studio switch letter Sarah posted. I speedran to Xiaohongshu (LittleRedBook/RedBook/RED); Instagram equal for China cause thought no one else would do it. This was before we found out the rest of the crew would send their regards as well.
Idk Mandarin at all so would appreciate any help. Literally just dumped everything into Google Translate.
Priority is everything in the 1st image. 2nd pic is just explanations I wrote for them in case they don't know, which idk how much they know about Flying Bark besides the fact that they thought their animation was awesome. Sometimes they share the storyboards on Bilibili/Weibo but that's about it.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Put them as images cause I was gonna post on Twitter, but coming here first, which also might be better instead.
The RedBook Post
Might need to go through some verification check, basically sliding things across the screen. No sign in should be required to view, though it could vary between countries.
Short Link: http://xhslink.com/kkPC3I
Link: www.xiaohongshu.com/explore/663ee802000000001e01c1bb
Reasons
If I don't get any sort of translation confirmations, I'm gonna have to update the post anyways. Right now, it's also full of ugly edits cause first time ever posting and I actually ran off to make this like the minute we were asked to do so in mk central discord. Gonna make it look nicer now that I realize it's gained traction. >_>
There's a lot of upset/angry/sad/mad fans on RedBook, Douyin, and Bilibili. Much like how we had the wildfire and death threats on Twitter except I think not as extreme to the point of sending death threats... thankfully. They didn't know about the studio change. Honestly, just trying to give them facts and reminding them they have part of the power to get the show cancelled or not; but also not telling them what to like or not like/stop grieving/etc.
Literally one of the RedBook comments on the S5 trailer LEGO China uploaded contains the picture from my post (cause I added disclaimer that it's not lego official translated). So I definitely would like to have the other translations down if they're just sharing around pictures like that. 😬 And note that they're all sharing the Mandarin ones; not the English even though I did provide them. I don't have Douyin and I dunno if I can upload on Bilibili. Weibo has been covered. Idk if there's other Chinese soc med I'm missing.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Notes for translation
Exact Mandarin/English text used in the ALTs of the pictures and "Keep Reading" section cause I realize ALT can’t copy and paste if needed
Uh please write down exactly what phrase to change, cause I do not understand any of the characters except the show title heh
1000 character limit for post, including tags and characters
Tags used: #lego乐高 #lego #悟空小侠 #乐高中国 #乐高悟空小侠 #乐高悟空小侠5年庆 #第五季 #齐小天 #孫悟空 @LEGO乐高 #乐高 If there's more that's helpful, please let me know lol been riding on these tags. If I can, I'll put English hashtags, but depends on character limit; Chinese is a priority
20 character limit for title, which I've chosen: 悟空小侠电视剧的未来🐒导演和编剧的笔记 (basically "future of LMK, directors & writers' statements/notes")
Crew member names and titles were written in the Mandarin dub credits, shown in 2nd pic. Not changing those in translations.
"Harbinger of Chaos" doesn't exist in the Mandarin version... I think? based on the s4 e7 subtitles we had way long ago. Changed Breen's tweet so it said to "find out more about MK." I guess I could've put "demon monkeys" but left that out in case they actually don't address it in the season. And idk the mandarin phrase they used for that
WildBrain Studios doesn't have a proper mandarin translation according to all the Mandarin dubbed Ninjago episodes so just kept it English
Idk if I forgot something, been having hard time keeping track of stuff oop I'll add more if there is more
Needed

From Deirdre:
乐高悟空小侠第五季即将到来,猜猜谁写了三集? 我🤭
Sorta Needed
Please note that I did use a translator (and friends) to write this article. I'm a western fan but I have access to the app. And please spread the word too. I don’t have much contact with Chinese social media.
请注意,我确实使用了翻译来写这篇文章。 [Could swap to saying friends instead of translator.] 我是西方粉丝,但我可以访问应用程序。也请广而告之。 我与中国社交媒体没有太多联系。
Former series directors and writers from Flying Bark Productions, as well as current writers, have all issued statements regarding the handling of the series.
旋风狗制片(Flying Bark Productions)的前系列导演和编剧以及现任编剧都就该系列的处理发表了声明。
Sarah Harper served as series director from S1 -3 before fully becoming a writer for several episodes in S4. Some of her series credits include "The Jade Emperor" and "Rip and Tear."
莎拉·哈珀(Sarah Harper)在第一季到第三季中担任系列导演,之后在第四季的几集中完全成为编剧。她的一些剧集包括《天庭大对决》和《青毛狮之怒》。
Christian Barkel served as animation director for the first three seasons and was promoted to series director in the fourth season.
克里斯蒂安·巴克尔(Christian Barkel)在前三季担任动画导演,第四季晋升为系列导演。
David Breen is currently a writer on the show's fifth season. He served as script supervisor for S1-3 before being promoted as one of the show's writers. Some of the episodes he has written are "The Brotherhood" and “A Lifetime of Mistakes."
大卫·布林 (David Breen) 现任该剧第五季的编剧。 在晋升为该剧的编剧之一之前,他担任第一季到第三季的剧本总监。 他编写的一些剧集有《青毛狮之谜》和《寻找美猴王》。
Deirdre Devlin is also a writer on season five. She was brought on as a writer in the fourth season. Her three episodes are "The Great Tang Man", "Court of the Yellow Robed Demon", and "Pitiful Creatures".
迪尔德丽·戴夫林(Deirdre Devlin)也是第五季的编剧之一。她在第四季中担任编剧。她的三集是《小天遇三藏》 、《神秘的“朋友”》、《受困保护咒》。
Not Needed but would be nice
Flying Bark Productions has withdrawn from the animation production of "Monkie Kid". Since 2020, they have been continuously invited to participate in new projects, such as "Disney's" "Moon Girl and the Demon Dinosaur" and "Avatar Studio"'s upcoming "Avatar" film in 2026.
旋风狗制片已退出《悟空小侠》的动画制作。 自2020年以来,他们不断受邀参与新项目,例如“Disney”的《月亮女孩與惡魔恐龍》以及2026年“Avatar Studio”即将上映的《降世神通》影片。
From now on, WildBrain Studios will animate the series. They were also responsible for the Ninjago TV series, although that was in 3D rather than a 2D TV series like Monkie Kid. The writers and voice actors remain the same, but new people could join the team.
从现在开始,WildBrain Studios 将制作该系列动画。 他们还负责《幻影忍者》电视剧,尽管该剧是 3D 的,而不是像《悟空小侠》那样的 2D 电视连续剧。 编剧和配音演员保持不变,但可能会有新人加入团队。
Some artists work as freelancers for the team. I don't know how WildBrain Studios' 2D department hires their artists. If they were invited back to the show, some of their work might be similar to their work from previous seasons. But that consistency may not hold true under new directors. We'll have to wait until the end of the season to see the TV show's credits.
一些艺术家作为团队的自由职业者。 我不知道WildBrain Studios的2D部门是如何聘请他们的艺术家的。 如果他们再次受邀参与节目,他们的一些作品可能会与前几季的作品相似。 但在新董事的领导下,这种一致性可能不会成立。 我们必须等到本季结束才能看到电视节目的制作人员名单。
Previous seasons used "frame-by-frame" animation, all drawn by hand. Based on the trailer, the new season appears to include the use of "rig animation," which is the use of technology to move characters and objects.
前几季使用“逐帧”动画,全部由手工绘制。根据预告片,新一季似乎包括使用“装备动画”,即使用���术来移动角色和物体。
All of these changes will impact Season 5 and beyond. I don't know how fan support affects entertainment distribution in China, but over here, if a show doesn't get enough views upon release, it may be abandoned by the distributor and have a hard time continuing. We will give as much support as possible in the West, although the success of the Monkie Kid LEGO sets and TV show has always and will always depend on its performance in China.
所有这些变化都将影响第五季及以后的内容。 我不知道粉丝的支持如何影响中国的娱乐发行,但在这里,如果一个节目在发行时没有获得足够的观看次数,它可能会被发行商放弃,很难继续下去。 我们将在西方给予尽可能多的支持,尽管悟空小侠乐高套装和电视节目的成功将始终取决于其在中国的表现。
Change can be difficult, and it's okay if you feel disappointed or upset. While waiting over the past year, we’ve been teased by the writers and voice actors that this story will be emotional and heartbreaking, and we trust the writers who have carried the story of Monkie Kid, so I hope you will consider watching season 5.
整个变化可能会令人震惊,如果您感到失望或不安也没关系。 在过去一年的等待中,我们被编剧和配音演员取笑,说这个故事将是感人且令人心碎的,我们相信那些承载了悟空小侠故事的编剧,所以我希望你能考虑观看这一季 5.
