#i'm off to bed to get some zzzs

[austerulous]

I’m super sleepy so I don’t have the brainpower to articulate this well, but –

Something about Odessa being the eldest of the Stone children, which meant she wasn’t shielded. Instead, from an early age, she was parentified, charged with protecting her siblings, with helping her mother, with standing shoulder to shoulder with her father, weapons in hand.

Both Arthur and Meredith were loving parents, but they treated their eldest daughter like a confidant, sharing their fears and anxieties and the uncensored, ugly realities of their situation. For Dez, there was no buffer. She had to figure out how to cope with her own feelings and trauma, while at the same time acting as a parent by proxy, being an anchor for both her siblings and her parents.

It added to her grief as one by one her family succumbed to the violence and hardship of the Wasteland. It also shapes who she is as an adult – her compulsive behaviour, difficulty trusting, need for control and anger issues all have their roots in her childhood.

Zhongli wants you to wake up early. You're a late riser. Shenanigans ensue.

"Darling, wake up," murmurs Zhongli into your ear, tenderly placing a kiss on your cheek. "The sun has risen."

"Whoooo caaaaares," you drawl drowsily, rolling onto your side.

"You said you would accompany me on one of my morning strolls."

"Mm some other time..." Your husband wraps his arms around you, but that does nothing to wake you up - if anything, his embrace is so warm and perfect and safe that you'll just...zzz...

Zhongli snuggles you. "Please?" he whispers in your ear. "I shall treat you to breakfast outside as well."

You utter a noise of disapproval. "I'm only getting up if you smack me awake."

"But I would never do that," the man protests, golden eyes full of hurt at the thought of hurting you. "Why would I hurt my beloved?"

You hum, eyes still closed. "Then go awayyyy."

After a while, he sighs. "All right, dear. Suit yourself." You feel the bed shift with his weight and hear soft footsteps making their way out. A small pang of guilt twinges inside you, but you can tell him later that you'll accompany him another time. For now, finally, you drift off again into dreamland...zzz...

A fluffy weight smothering your face rudely pulls you out of it as quickly as you'd been sinking - sputtering, you wiggle helplessly under the floof that you quickly register as your husband in his tiny chonk form. "Get off!"

Chonkli ignores your protests and paws at your cheeks as incessantly as a cat, his tail gently smacking you in the chest as he does it. He nibbles on your earlobe, making you wriggle even more.

It's when he brings his tail to your nose that your eyes shoot open, prying him off before he can coax a sneeze out of you. "Alright, alright, I'm up!" you say, holding him up, scowling, as he purrs and licks your nose in triumph. "That breakfast better be worth it!"

ZZZ Wise cockwarming

Nsfw there's like no content of him AAA gotta feed the fellow girls and gays

Gn!reader x zzz wise

You idly sit on your boyfriend's bed the sound of the clicks of his keyboard fill the room. Belle was gone and your boyfriend was working so all you could do was sit down and wait for Wise to finish.

Wise hears your bored sigh and turns his chair to see you. "I'm sorry, baby, This email is taking a lot longer than I thought. You can just go downstairs and watch something. I'll be down to meet you when I'm done."

He turns back around to focus on the screen as you protest. "I don't want to go downstairs Wise, I want to be with you. It's already been 30 minutes. Are you done yet?" He smiles, hearing the pout in your voice, His heart squeezes at your neediness. The fact that you want him so much fills him with ache but his work is important to him.

"I know I'm sorry, I'm almost done baby and then I'll be yours."

His typing continues for another painstaking 5 minutes enough to open up your phone and scroll before getting a dastardly idea. Something you totally did not get online You stand up shaking your hips as you take off your bottoms You pull out your boyfriend's chair a little bit just to sit in his lap. Wise's eyes widen as you surprise him with your sudden movement. His hands instinctively go to your now bare thighs. "What is this? What are you doing?" Wise asked.

"hmmm nothing just keep working I'll sit here." Now he isn't stupid He knows a scheming little liar when he sees one But he can't deny he is intrigued to see where this goes And who is he to turn down His cute partner in his lap. , "Okay then." Wise smiles, kissing you on your head before returning to his keyboard.

You waited a bit after the clacking starts before you start it too grind your hips against him. His hands on the keyboard shook pausing for a moment before continuing. You couldn't help yourself smiling before grinding harder. This time he stops letting out a groan his breath tickles your ear his voice low and husky "Baby, I'm working."

"keep working!"

He stays silent but obligious typing a little slower and he was before. You can tell You were having an effect on him As you can feel something growing harder in his pants.

There we go.... Time for some real fun.

Your hands slipped underneath your ass and in one motion quickly unzipped pants pulled his semi hard cock out.

"Oh baby what are you-Oh fuck..."

Pushing your panties to the side you immediately take him in sinking of his cock. His eyes rolled back as you take him in.

If he wasn't hard before he definitely was now. You can feel him buck and grind against you desperate for more than what you were giving him.

"keep working Wise."You say innocently as if you didn't just put his cock inside you.

"baby you know I can't focus now. Not when you're squeezing me. Good God why are you already wet?"His hands were gripping and groping your thighs and hips if you didn't take his hands off of you to put them back on the keyboard he would have probably moved you up and down.

His hands were shaking taking long pauses in each word as he struggles to type every word. Your walls occasionally squeezing around him feel him twitch inside you.

Balls deep inside your suckling, squeezing velvet walls. He could barely even concentrate, sitting so pretty in his lap, so cute he just wanted to grab your hips and move you, fuck you right in his chair. Drag you up and down and use you like a fleshlight since you want his attention so badly. Concentrating was agony now all he could think about was you.

Fuck work. He buries his face into his shoulder hand on your thigh and another hand dipping between your legs. As wise begins to hump inside you finally getting that delicious friction.

"baby please, you win. I just want to fuck you. Let me fuck you. Please let me fuck you!"

Wise was desperate grinding inside you fucking himself silly as he grabs your waist and grinds you down on him.

Part of you wants to tease him more but you don't think he'll let you given that he already starts moving you up and down.

Before you could even nod He pushes his things to the other side of the desk before lifting you and pressing you face down onto his desk. Wise doesn't even give you time to think before he starts drilling his hips into you.

Blitz: ABC’s of Intimacy

i’m posting my old stuff on here!!

•Aftercare (How do they look after you after sex)

He mainly just lays in bed and cuddles you. Nothing too crazy, he just lays there and listen to you talk and vice versa. He's not really into aftercare, but he does it for you.

• Body Part (Fav body part)

Boobs, he's a sucker (ha) for boobs. Groping, flicking, licking, sucking your nipples, he loves it.

•Communication (Do they talk during sex, roleplay, etc)

He's a huge talker and super into roleplaying. He mainly likes to roleplay as cowboys but is up to do whatever you want roleplay as.

•Dirty Secret (A secret they won't tell)

He's lowkey into you degrading him. He found out by accident whenever you yelled at him for accidentally cumming in your eye. Sometimes he gets on your nerves just so he could be yelled at by you.

•Experienced or Virgin

Super experienced, before yall got together bro was fucking like once a day.

•Goofy or Serious

Mainly serious in bed, but if it's just casual sex he'll say some dumb shit like, "I wonder if M&M are fucking right now." And you'll just reply with "Well I'm pretending I'm fucking Moxxie right now." And yall will just go back and forth

•Favorite Position (self explanatory)

He's a sucker for doggy. Pulling on your horns, hair, tail, he loves it. (Same with pegging)

•Hair (pubes shave or natural)

He's trimmed

•Intimacy (Their romantic level during sex)

It depends on what kind of day he had. If he had a pretty good day he's pretty romantic. Candles, music, all of that stuff. If he's having a shitty day then it's not as romantic but you can still tell he loves you.

•Jack off (How often)

Pretty often. Whenever you're not there he usually jacks off in the bathroom and thinks about you.

•Kinks

Choking, roleplaying, bondage (giving and receiving) He's not vanilla whatsoever. (But is willing to be vanilla if you're not up for it).

•Location (Fav areas to have sex)

Mainly his office, but he also loves doing it in the shower and on the couch. But office 100%

•Motivation (Their turn on's)

Whenever he sees you killing the targets. M&M have to pry him off of you basically. Also whenever he sees you wearing one of his shirts wearing no pants.

•No's

He doesn't have a lot of no's. The only thing is that he's against dressing up as clowns and roleplaying as them (because of his past)

•Oral (Give or receive)

At first he prefers receiving, but after that encounter with Verosika he was willing to give you oral, and ever since he loved it.

•Pace (Slow, gentle, rough, hard, fast)

Again, depending on what type of day he had. Sucky day, hard and rough, good day, slow and gentle. He's also willing to do whatever pace you would like.

•Quickie

He loves them. He always asks for a quickie every day (and if you're willing to do one).

•Risk (What things he's willing to do)

Anything and everything. Living world, the headquarters, on a fuck ton of drugs, in public (if you're up for that)

•Stamina

Pretty high, he can go how long you would like. After sex, he would need a couple of hours to recover, but after he's willing to go again.

•Toys

He loves them. His favorite one is using a vibrator on you. For himself he loves using a vibrating buttplug.

•Unfair (Teasing)

Definitely unfair. He's really into edging. But once you beg him to stop he'll happily obliged.

•Volume

Normal amount of volume. He's not extremely loud. Mainly just grunts and some moans.

•Wild (Are they animalistic)

Very much so, but not all the time. It depends if y'all are roleplaying and what yall are roleplaying.

•X Ray (What's in their pants)

7 Inches in length but slim. Its the same color as his skin and he has some "spikes" like the one his his back. It doesn't hurt at all and it gives you more sensation.

•Yearning (High or low sex drive)

Pretty high. If he's depressed then it's quite low and he's kinda embarrassed by that. But you're by his side and reassures him it's okay.

•Zzz

He typically stays awake if it's during the day. But if it's late at night he'll stay awake for some minutes before finally falling asleep.

[whumblr]

hii, can you please write about a whumpee that can’t sleep alone without caretaker, but the caretaker has an urgent business trip thus leaving whumpee alone at night?

Whumpee turned over again, eyes blank, staring at Caretaker's empty side of the bed. A soft sigh, almost a huff, brushed past their lips.

They'd meant it, when they'd said they'd be fine.

Or at least, they thought it would be fine. Just two days. They could certainly manage that, they had assured Caretaker. And they did. Everything went absolutely fine - not great, just fine like they'd said. Until night fell.

They never fully realised it, but just having Caretaker next to them made them feel safe. Even when he was completely conked out, snoring, far from this world. Just watching him, breathing softly, it was comforting. Knowing they weren't alone, knowing they weren't waking up in that cell--

They let their arm fall down, stretched out over the flat duvet.

Yesterday they didn't sleep at all. Just tossed and turned, hoping sleep would finally come. You can't sleep with enemies nearby. There weren't any nearby. Or so Whumpee hoped. But unfortunately, they carried their enemy with them. All the time.

The mocking voice in their head wasn't the only thing keeping them awake, but it certainly made things most difficult.

"I bet Caretaker is having a blast, finally having a day to himself."

Whumpee punched their pillow in frustration and almost threw themself on it, pulling up the blankets. Caretaker wasn't like that.

"I don't know. Maybe he grew tired of you. Scared little mouse to comfort at every little bit."

Deep breaths. Don't think. Don't engage those thoughts-- Okay, yeah, they were a scared little mouse. Even now, willfully ignoring every little sound in the house that made them want to snap up and scour every room every time something creaked. But they didn't. They had to prove that they could do this. That they didn't need Caretaker for everything.

Maybe that's why they had been so adamant in getting Caretaker to accept this business trip. Maybe they just wanted to show him - and themself - that they could do this. Could perfectly stay alone for a weekend and be absolutely fine.

"Are you sure it's a business trip?" the voice crooned and Whumpee's eyes snapped open. "Would make total sense if he just desperately needed a break from you."

No, that--. No, they'd seen the pictures he sent yesterday evening. Large podium. Nice snacks. Meeting room with some Zzz emoji's from Caretaker. It was a business trip. It definitely was!

"He probably volunteered, then. Needing some time away. Awful, really. He knows you can't be alone yet he still went."

"That's not true," Whumpee said out loud. Great, now they actually were arguing with just the darkness in their room. They knew that wasn't true. And they knew that horrible voice only echoed their own horrible thoughts pushed back to the back of their mind. The only one awful here was themself.

"It's okay, darling. You're just uncomfortable. You know why? Because you're doing something that would get you punished. That's why you're all jitters..."

"I'm not--"

"Your shirt. You know I don't like it when you cover your scars."

A chill went through them. The cotton of their oversized shirt snagged around them from all the twisting and turning, uncomfortably pulling at them. That's not it. That's not the reason why they couldn't sleep. No one could punish them anym--

"Take it off."

This is ridiculous, they huffed to themself. They flipped to their side, forced their eyes shut. But the brewing anxiety in their stomach only turned more heavy. And the shirt tangled around them started to feel constricting.

With a snap they sat up. Ripped their shirt over their head. And threw it across the room.

Recently got into ZZZ and I came up with this. So Nicole and Ellen (separate) have an S/O who’s a hardworking proxy. However, they are constantly pulling all-nighters and falling asleep at their desk in the middle of the day. How would they respond?

Pairings -> Nicole Demara, Ellen Joe x Reader

Warnings -> None

Note -> You are a hardworking proxy that intends to pull all nighters, you then would fall asleep at your desk during the middle of the day

Genre -> Fluff

Nicole Demara

Well since she is your girlfriend and that you are a proxy that works at the same business with Belle and Wise

She always visits you when she is free from missions and all that other stuff

Sometimes she would come on by during the night sometimes since you would invited her over if she is free of course

But sometimes she would sneak in like those boys going into their girlfriends house and that they don't want to be caught

Yeah she would be the type to do that

Right now you were quite busy with your work that you were not paying attention to the time

It was around 3 am already

And you didn't even know it was that time already but you just kept working until your heard the birds chirping

"Ugh.. I did it again"

Nichole would text you every morning to see if she could come over

You accepted her to come over, but your eyes felt droopy as you tried to stay awake

Eventually you fell asleep at your desk with a bunch of tabs open on your computer in front of you as well as your phone on the desk that was getting spammed by your girlfriend Nicole

She was texting what time she should come over but she wasn't getting any response so she just went

She was greeted by Belle who was running the store while Wise was at the back doing some commissions

She asked for you and Belle said that you would be in your room upstairs

Nichole then went up stairs and knocked on your door

"Sweetie? You in there?"

No response

She opened the door to see you asleep at your desk once again, she sighed

"Not again.."

She would carry you to your bed which made you open your eyes to see what was happing

"Go back to sleep Hun, I see that you were working hard last night again. I'll be here when you wake up but I have to let Belle know"

"Sorry, I lost track of time"

"It's okay, just go back to sleep Love. Get some rest"

She kissed your forehead and then go back downstairs to let belle know you would be having a little nap upstairs

Ellen Joe

So we all know this girl lovessss to sleep anywhere and anytime at anyday

So I reckon that Ellen would find you asleep and then sleep with you

So again you are working hard, doing stuff on your computer, searching online for some stuff that you were trying to find

You worked at the same business with Belle and Wise

You lived with them anyways so but you were a friend of theirs

Around the time you went to sleep was around the next day during the afternoon because you literally stayed up all night trying to get something done

Ellen would be off of work as she comes back from school to see you

She comes in the store and greets both Wise and Belle

Ellen would ask where you were and Wise and Belle says they haven't seen you get out of your room yet today

Ellen would go check up on you to see if you were okay

She would knock first before see comes in to see you asleep at your desk again

She would sigh and she shakes her head but she wouldn't be complaining

She would try to wake you up, but if you didn't

She would carry you to your bed

You would wake up to her clothes shuffling around as she tries to take off her School jacket and toss it on the floor

"Hm? Ellen, what-"

"Shh, Just go back to sleep. I'm having a nap with you, So don't fight it"

"I pulled an all-nighter didn't I?"

"Yep, but now you are going to rest with me"

"Didn't you just come back from school?"

"Yep and I'm tired"

"I bet you fell asleep in class"

You snickered as you forehead would get flicked by Ellen

"Just go to sleep idiot"

｡ﾟ(ﾟ^Ｏ^ﾟ)ﾟ｡

It's 7:30 in the morning, you and Hobie are sleeping peacefully, his head cradled in your neck, while you both just cling to him and the weighted comforter over you both. The sun slowly spills into the room on the boat, making beautiful patterns of the leaves outside on the boat floor. The curtains gleaming with the sunlight, and they gently sway with the London breeze.

The bed is warm, the sound of busses, cars, chatter, and the occasional train passing. The boat sways along the dock, the bow tied to the fendor, the boat sways along with the slow breeze.

Your phone alarm rings on your nightstand, you lean over him and turn the alarm off, the cold screen of your phone makes your fingers cold. There's a sunflower pot there, given to you by Miles for you and Hobie's 1 year anniversary, the sunflower petals lazing in the sunlight, the disk flowers having a little shine on them.

Hobie grips you closer, humming in irritation of your sudden movement, his border getting more rigid, but smooth, with ZzZ's and exclamation marks appeared when you moved, but they went away as you went back to your original position cuddling him.

Relaxing.

'I'm kinda hungry..' You don't even make it a millimeter off of Hobie before he pulls you even closer.

"Don't leave.." He mumbles, eyes still closed, gripping onto your waist, feeling his breath on your neck while he has his head in it.

"I'm hungry, Hobie.."

"I'll cook..somethin' for you.." He just sighs into your neck.

"C'mon Hobie, we both know that-"

snooorreee

"Really?" You sigh, still attempting to get out of bed, his arms still around you. You gently usher his arms off of you, him still sleeping. You put your slippers on, and go to the boats kitchen.

The smell of batter reaches your nose, as you make some pancakes, flipping the golden brown pancake back on the pan. You hear some yawning behind you, then some arms wrap around you.

"Morning, Hobie.." You kiss him, and he just hums in response.

"I got pancakes ready" He immediately hypes up at this, kissing you and sitting on the couch. You put some pancakes on yours, and Hobie's plate, then place it down on the coffee table.

After finishing breakfast, you're (once again) cradled in Hobie's touch on the couch, a blanket over you two, and his quite snores echo in the boat. The soft music in the background adds to the comfort, the rhythm is smooth and it makes you relax further into his touch.

You nuzzle into him, he's now a calm shade of pink, softly snoring, while his border is full of z's. You close your eyes, and eventually fall asleep.

@chessbox

Hey! You made it down here! I know the ending was kinda lazy, I apologize. What did you think about it?

I also apologize for not pumping out these stories often, been very smoothed brain lately.

thanks for 100 followers!! Never thought I would get here, I appreciate it HEAVILYYYYY!!!

I hand you a water bottle, some food, and a blanket. ☆

TYSM FOR THE REQ THIS WAS SO FUN TO DO

[inbetweenknacksandnooks]

Just started the newest ZZZ special episode and... it's giving me 2nd-hand rage.

You know how in cartoons (usually comedy ones) a character will have a bunch of garbage happening around them, but they're not mad because they feel like they 'shouldn't be', so you, as the viewer, get mad for them.

Anyway that's how I feel about Yanagi's story so far.

Yanagi is essentially raising 3 children in the form of her colleagues.

Soukaku is mildly forgivable, only because my personal headcanon is that her mental growth has been stunted one way or another, and it's revealed why Yanagi takes care of her in Yanagi's teaser. So I can forgive that well enough.

But Miyabi is a different case. It's stated that she passed on all the paperwork to Yanagi, and constantly tries to get out of meetings. I know that meetings and paperwork is unpleasant, but you're the CHIEF ffs! Take some responsibility!

While Zhu Yuan had boundaries in the workplace, such as not working overtime when her job was done, Yanagi seems to have the opposite

Miyabi doesn't seem to stop or suggest stopping this kind of thing to keep her health intact either!

Harumasa isn't as bad as Miyabi, but he's not great either, as he constantly wants to slack off whenever possible.

This is the equivalent of having to do a group project with 3 unmotivated people that want to dilly-dally and sidetrack every possible conversation to avoid doing work, and ultimately, you have to take on the whole damn thing by yourself.

I'm not trying to say that the rest of Section 6 don't love or care about Yanagi at all, they obviously do, and if Yanagi had a heart attack from underlying cardiovascular disease (due to her immense work stress), the three would likely visit her hospital bed (if she was still alive, anyway, since women die from heart attacks more frequently, and she's often left either on her own, or with what is basically an incompetent child who wouldn't know the first thing about strokes or those kinds of problems)

But I don't think Miyabi would learn that this toxic asf work environment is the thing killing her, and would go back to not caring about Yanagi staying late after the first month or two of the incident.

I think the thing that peeves me the most, is how all three of them act like whiny children with Yanagi around.

As I mentioned, Soukaku is mostly excusable, since she has stunted mental growth.

But fucking Miyabi, crying about not wanting to attend a meeting, or Harumasa who faked a fucking stomachache to skip work?!

This is your job, not Elementary School! I hope one of your vacation days were snatched!

I make a big deal out of this, because I don't think that anyone should have a parent-child relationship with their colleagues, unless there is an underlying condition wherein you are the person's caretaker (Soukaku)

I would never want a parent-like relationship with a spouse, nor one with a friend. Hell, I don't need a parent-like relationship at all, since I'm an adult.

Likewise, a child's parent shouldn't be a bosom buddy.

I might just be projecting a little bit, or getting too personal, because I never want to have kids ever, and I've seen people with this kind of lifestyle where they baby everyone around them, and get fucked with little-to-no freetime, heightening blood pressure due to stress, and a lot of pent-up feelings because they can't communicate to their friends, because they treat their friends as children, and their friends treat them as a parent.

Anyways, I'm not very far into the Special Episode, so maybe Yanagi snaps somewhere or has an emotional breakdown where Section 6 (specifically Harumasa and Miyabi) can see how much Yanagi is doing, and they help to rectify this, by eventually creating a much better workplace to live in.

A lifestyle like this can't go on forever, and I hope the negative effects are shown.

William Rex Chapter 11

 ｡⋆｡˚🦋˚｡⋆｡

The moment felt like sugar in a cup of tea, spreading and melting deep into the body.

I was left dizzy and intoxicated by its sweet afterglow and fell asleep like a spoiled child in the night that had descended before I knew it.

Kate: "Nn.......Mm......"

(Birds are chirping....is it morning already?)

William: ".....zZz...."

Kate: "....!?"

The sight of a defenseless sleeping face in front of me awakened my sleepy head at once.

(Oh yeah....we were....)

Immediately, yesterday's events flashed through my mind and my heart began to pound.

(I...was so outrageous.....)

Once I became obedient to my desires, I ended up having sex.

That too, with William, who I thought was the member of the Crown I should be most vigilant of.

(Indeed, I was attracted to him)

I felt like I was going crazy with him and I wanted to know him,

Now that I think about it, it was probably the voice that I had been killing all this time.

(And I did this. I don't intend to be in a relationship like this....)

----FLASHBACK-----

Kate: "I.....I can't be myself....when I'm around you...."

William: "........Is it a 'good' thing or 'bad' thing?"

----FLASHBACK ENDS-----

(Which is it?)

The questions I have put off, spoiled by the darkness of the night are swirling around in my chest.

(......such beautiful sleeping face.....)

My head was about to boil over and I let go of my thoughts and my gaze was drawn to him on its own.

The smooth curve of his cheek, his long eyelashes, his silky silver hair, his lightly tinted lips....

(Yesterday, these lips were....)

William: "......Nmm....."

(.....!)

William: "......Fufu. You're up early, Kate."

(Nn.....?)

The moment I heard the voice, I felt a sweet numbness.

As if a switch had been flipped, my body recalls the pleasures of yesterday on its own.

Kate: "...........good morning."

William: "Good morning......your voice looks to be rather sore, huh?"

Laughing brightly, William gently combs my hair.

These hands that gracefully play the piano are meaner than I thought.

They know what I want and how I want as if reading my mind.

(.....I don't think I'll be able to look at even one fingertip properly for a while....)

William: "I'll have something for breakfast. You can get some rest."

Kate: "......yes......."

I watched his back as he left the bed in a good mood as usual, and I buried my hot face in the cold pillow.

(I feel like I'm the only one going crazy)

(.....Why did William do this with me?)

 ｡⋆｡˚🦋˚｡⋆｡

(.....Why did William do this with me?)

(I wonder if he would do it with anyone....if he was asked to, even if he had no special feelings for them)

Just an extension of his affection, to help you be honest about your desires.

These words come to mind, and a hazy feeling builds up in my chest.

William: "Kate."

Kate: "Whaaa!?"

A sudden whisper in my ear and I jump out,

William: "Hahahaha!"

Smiling pleasantly, William put the breakfast tray on the sideboard.

William: "Finally, a pretty squeal."

Kate: "D-Don't sneak attack on me....."

William: "Forgive me, you looked so serious and thoughtful."

(.....Don't look at me like that)

Whenever he smiles happily and squints his eyes lovingly I feel my heart turning into a mess.

(William is someone who is willing to lend his support to anyone he likes)

(If I were one of the many who just happened to catch his eye then I'm one of the many)

(I should be able to make myself believe that this was a one-night stand, a passing affair, and that I should have no regrets. No feelings)

William: "You didn't get the answer to that question?"

Kate: "Answer.....?"

William looked at me with those eyes that could see through the depths of my heart.

(Ah.....)

(No.....don't expose my heart yet)

I find myself in a hurry.

(....Yet? What is yet....?)

I was also trying to kill my voice again.

And---WIlliam is surely aware of it.

William: "Then does that mean it's a 'bad' thing....."

William: "You didn't like what happened yesterday?"

Kate: "T-That's...."

Reflexively, the words seem to fly out of my mouth and I block them with the palm of my hand.

(No...if I say something like that)

William: "....Then why are you hiding?"

(Because, if I admit it....I'm afraid I won't be able to go back)

(I'm scared)

William's hand slowly pulls my hand away from my mouth.

Memories of entwined fingertips scrambled through my mind, ruining every bit of resistance I could muster.

William: "Kate."

(I already knew the answer to the question of what was good and what was bad)

(I just didn't want to admit it)

I had a feeling that there is going to be a lot of pain ahead and I wanted to pretend that I did not see it because I felt it was wrong.

However, for me, being loved by him so much that I wanted to shake it off.

(Is happy and painful...'good' thing)

-----Options-----

I shouldn't have, but it was a good thing.

I don't want to not do it again.

You already know, so don't ask.

---------

Kate: "........I don't want to.....not do it again."

I am so embarrassed that I almost started crying and my ears are burning.

William: ".....Fufu."

Kate: "......Don't laugh....it's embarrassing."

William: "Sorry. You look so cute."

Everything he pours fascinates me.

The more he pours...the more I want it.

(Because.....I like William)

William: "You have a bad habit of keeping your mouth shut and hiding your true feelings. How should I fix that now?"

His question was the perfect excuse for me. I couldn't resist the urge to intertwine our fingers one more time.

Kate: ".....Keep holding me...so I won't hide."

 ｡⋆｡˚🦋˚｡⋆｡

William: "You have a bad habit of keeping your mouth shut and hiding your true feelings. How should I fix that now?"

Kate: ".....Keep holding me...so I won't hide."

William: "I see. That's a good idea."

Our fingers intertwined and was sewn to the bed.

(It is easy to solve if I try to shake it off)

Therefore, the fingertips that cling to the body are full of strength.

William: "....Ah, there is one problem."

Kate: "What...?"

William: "We won't be having breakfast."

He whispered jokingly just before kissing me.

Even though I know that this is a trap to lure out my true feelings, I can't resist.

Kate: "It's easier to eat....when it's a little cooler."

I couldn't honestly say 'I'd rather kiss you than eat breakfast.'

William gave me a pampering kiss.

.........

Inside an office of a certain palace, a man with a mustache tosses a telegram onto the desk.

Mustache man: " 'They found him, he's coming' ......it's funny that this the end of a political heavyweight in such a hurry."

Secretary: "Sir, what should I write as a reply?"

Mustache man: " Write... 'That's exactly what I want. Entertain him in the mansion and make him look like a long-time ally.' "

Mustache man: " 'Whenever he is caught off guard, our men will catch him.' "

Mustache man: " 'The signal should be 'It's time for dinner'. As soon as you say that, it will trigger our best men to rush in....' "

As the secretary finished writing out the words, a knock on the door rolled into the room.

Brian: "Excuse me. It's Brian Bennett."

Mustache man: "Ah, come in."

Brian: "Sir Grimsley, what can I do for you today? ......Another civilian threat?"

Grimsley: "Oh, it's always the same, Brian."

Grimsley: "...I want you to use your pen to bring justice to the 'evil'."

...........

It was that evening, after a cold breakfast with William while laughing, that I received a call from Victor.

(It's rare to see the whole Crown together)

Victor: "Thank you for coming, ladies and gentlemen! As an expression of gratitude, allow me to sing you a song...."

Jude: "Tch, fuck this, I'm leaving."

Harrison: ".....Haa..I'm leaving too."

Victor: "Wait, I was joking! Come back come back! It's really really important!"

Ellis: "Why he doesn't get to the main topic right away, Kate?"

Kate: "Hm? Well, I guess....Victor was just trying to lighten up the atmosphere."

William: "Good for you, Victor. Now you have a friend to take your side."

Victor: "You're right. Miss Kate, you're so kind."

Victor: "I wish I could hug you right now....but we'll save that for later."

Victor: "Now! .....It's time to get down to business."

 ｡⋆｡˚🦋˚｡⋆｡

Victor: "Now! .....It's time to get down to business."

The air that Victor wears instantly goes to being dull and I unintentionally straightened up.

The faces of the Crown members also changed.

Victor: "We all know that William was the first to track down the originator of the 'Golden Butterfly' revival."

Victor: "The Marquis of Avalus. Yesterday, I confirmed the information that he is definitely in the mansion."

Victor: "The destruction of a single drug smuggling operation would be a minor blow to the organization."

Victor: "We're dealing with a powerhouse that has access to all kinds of facilities and manpower."

Victor: "If we let him go, we will be allowing a second or third sacrifice."

(...I can't believe we're going through this again. It should never happen again)

Sadness and anger burn in my heart as I recall the horrific scenes I saw in the East End.

The director of the workhouse was surprised by the arrival of the 'Marquis' played by William that day.

The Marquis and the upper echelons of the 'butterfly' would never descend to such dark depths so easily.

(So that's why they could....go on and on doing awful things)

Victor: "Her Majesty, the Queen desires that the Marquis be executed and that the butterflies be exterminated."

Victor: "William, can you go?"

William: "Ah, sure. Why not?"

An order to assassinate the Marquis.

Liam: "I want to go too. It looks like it's going to be an intense mission. Fufu.....I'm excited."

Harry: "Then, Will, are you taking Kate along with you as well?"

Kate: "...!"

William: "If she wants to. What do you want to do, Kate?"

Kate: "I...."

All the missions I have been on so far have been preparatory work for crushing the 'butterfly'.

In this assignment, William is tasked to 'terrorize' those who seek to evade the law and trample on our freedoms.

He will kill the Marquis of Avalus in a cruel and inhumane manner.

He shows the terrible consequences of 'evil' and restrains 'evil'. That is the true nature of his crime.

(...To be honest, I'm afraid to witness that)

(But I can't write about William's sins as a fairy tale master without witnessing it. And....)

(If only I didn't know how my heart would feel about his sin)

(I feel like I'm going to pick and choose what's important to me in the future)

Kate: "I want to go. If I'm not a hindrance."

William: "Of course not. If you want to come, you're always welcome."

Liam: "What about others?"

Roger: "I'll come along too. It's the enemy territory. It's better to know what's going to happen around you all the time."

Elbert: "............I'm going too."

Roger: "Ha?"

Alphonse: "......Pardon me for a moment, please."

With a mysterious look on his face, Mr. Alphonse reach out to touch Master Elbert's forehead.

Alphonse: "His temperature is fine..... I don't see any major head injury or anything."

Alphonse: "Lately, you have been out of sorts...but looks like we reached an irreversible state I guess."

Elbert: "...........I'm doing fine, Al. Don't worry."

Roger: "He's just being sarcastic, because it's rare to see you, asking to go on a mission, that's why."

Elbert: "...............There is something I want to confirm."

Master Elbert's gaze suddenly turned to me and my eyes widened.

(......Don't tell me he still thinks that I'm the 'one' he's looking for?)

The calm and serene expression, only staring at me, made me shudder.

(It's not right to make excuses, and I should probably just leave it alone.....)

(Maybe one day he will realize that he's mistaken)

Victor: "It would be difficult to move in such a large group since we would be jumping into the enemy's lair...."

Victor: "Why not take Ellis with you as well?"

Jude: "There he goes again, using my employees without my permission."

Ellis: "I don't mind going. Ah, but...."

Jude: "What?"

Ellis: "What if Jude encounters his happiest moment, while I'm away?"

Jude: "Tch, you creepy bastard. I hope you go there and die."

(Happiest moment....?)

Unsure of what he meant, I asked William in a low voice.

Kate: "So then, what happens when that moment arrives....?"

William: "Ellis will kill him."

(Eh...)

William: "I heard that's the deal."

(What kind of deal...No, I shouldn't pry)

Victor: "Ok. So it's final. William, Liam, Roger, Elbert, Ellis.....and Kate will go on this mission."

Victor: "You guys will be leaving at midnight. Until then, eat, sleep or do whatever you like."

Victor: "Oh, and..."

 ｡⋆｡˚🦋˚｡⋆｡

Victor: "And...Kate, can you stay back for a minute? I'd like to talk to you."

Kate: "Me? Yeah sure."

William: "....I'll see you later, then."

William and his friends leave and I and Victor were the only one left in the common room.

(I wonder what Victor wants to talk about....)

(Oh, yeah....!)

I recall not completing the report and even threatening the Crown on the East End mission.

Kate: "Perhaps, you're going to punish me.....?"

Victor: "Eh? Punish you? For what? You're doing your duties well!"

Kate: "But I haven't submitted the report...."

Victor: "Don't worry about the formalities. You're sincerely trying to determine William's sin."

Victor: "I think it's pointless to report something you don't fully understand, right? I get it!"

Victor urges me to take a chair.

Victor: ".....So how is it like spending time with William?"

The question posed to me gently was the main issue.

Kate: ".....I feel like I'm being reborn."

Victor: "Haha, I see. That's an odd way to put it."

Victor: "You were as dazzling as a diamond in the rough when we first met....but now you are even more beautiful."

Victor: "I know many people like you who were loved and changed by William."

(.....!)

Victor seemed to understand exactly what was happening to me and William.

Victor: "Those who flap their wings always end up with William in the back of their minds."

Victor: "It's William that makes it blow over, though."

Kate: ".........H-How do you.......?"

Victor: "He can't leave people who have their hearts tied up. He will give anything to let them go!"

(Anything....yeah, that's right)

Victor: "But all he does is give them one-sided affection, just like that."

Victor: "He doesn't ask anything in return. Even if you offer him your love, he won't take it."

The word was less resistant than I thought it would be, convinced me.

(I wanted William. He pulled out all my desires and made me my own master)

But....if I had said, 'Let's not do it again' then he would have surely stopped and walked away from me.

He would have said 'You did well' with a happy smile.

(He doesn't see me as something special)

(....But he's special to me)

I think everyone who was loved by William will carry that specialness with them, waiting for the day it becomes a memory.

(......Even me.....?)

Victor: "Are you in love with William?"

Kate: "Eh......?"

An unexpected question cuts through my heart.

(I knew I wasn't special to him, but my heart ached for love?)

(Is this feeling of wanting to give something back even if he doesn't ask for it, love?)

Kate: "....I don't know yet."

Victor: ".......It's nice of you to be able to say, 'I don't know' and not be misled by what you don't know."

Kate: "Why did you ask me that?"

Victor didn't seem to be advising me not to love him.

The voice that speaks about him also seems to have affection for William.

Because of my love for William he seemed to want something from me.

Victor: ".....I have some selfish expectations, you know."

Victor: "You know his 'evil' and you're attracted to him....so, think you can protect him?"

(Protect him....?)

Kate: "Why on earth do you want that....? William has the power to screw over any opponent in an instant...."

Victor smiled sadly without answering my unintentional question.

Victor: "Are you ready to stand by his beautiful solitude....his fate?"

Chapter 12

[apatchworkstar]

Hi! >:- 3c surprised to see me here? Cause I'm a bit, to be making this. So! Context is I made a Muu playlist and I wanted to make a post about why I ordered it the way I did. Not to mention why I chose the songs I did.

So, as they say, from the top~

Selfish Princess - Fujiwo

I feel like anyone who knows of Muu and has listened to this song may be able to guess why it's here. But for anyone who hasn't...

I feel like this captures her dichotomy of how she wants to be catered to very well.

Wanna eat that sweet sweet chocolate, wanna drink that hot hot latte, wanna eat that soft soft bread. Wanna eat that sticky cheese, wanna sleep in that fluffy fluffy bed; dozy, dozy have a good night zzz / Wanna eat that bitter bitter liver, wanna drink that red red soup, wanna eat that soft soft flesh.

This song also showcases how lazy she can be when it comes to things she's asked to do. In conjunction with how she expects people to work around her, instead of the other way round.

One, two, three- start dancing to the beat with my mysterious steps / Murmuring, rolling, lazy lazy meow meow; don't wanna do anything! / Three, two, one- the fragrant that makes my heart beat wildly

It also highlights a aspect of hers that can get overlooked. That being that she tends to like people who aren't just seeming to suck up to her.

Guillotine, gunshot, burning or seppuku, any option you'd like. No one can beat me; oh how boring. / Sweet sweet is not enough, show me more of that twisted face. Lalala lalala lalala, see- it's not enough

You may ask "then why would she bully those who aren't giving into her whims?" and that's a fair question! Muu does like to be indulged, after all. She's just also someone who doesn't appreciate people feeding off her without any sort of recompense. This is shown in how she refers to Mikoto in the wireless headphones.

Mikoto-kun, he's a bit of a poser

Overall, it's a good starting song as it shows Muu at a baseline.

I'm waiting for someone to love this selfish me. My pillow is wet with tears at the lonely nights. I watch every second passing by-

but I'm... right?

Selfish, lalala~ Don't be afraid everyone. Please give, give me! Keep giving me everything. Everything can be forgiven because I'm the cutest.

Hello Dystopia - MafuMafu

Ah, Hello Dystopia, my beloved~ Also a very easy pick for Muu, given her role in her school's dynamic.

Now, exit, exit; disappear, if you'd please! / The influence of a desperate god, the screws in my head turn anti-clockwise. It's too late to let us down, isn't it? Don't you beg for your life- let's fall together to the depths of hell. / Here, there's only idiots crawling out of the woodwork who want to play. Let's go in order, starting with whose hands are free- raise them to the gallows

As we all know, Muu has a habit of acting against anyone who she thinks dislikes her/ has ulterior motives-

Rehabilitation, reincarnation, my specialty. A refuge for failures to gather in 140 characters / It's the cruel sin of tearing down a tower of building blocks. All right, we're saving the world; excellent, chanting in unison, almost logged out of life

-We also know that, in some sense, this is meant to be a kindness, as she refers to these actions as "gentle stings".

Let's chant babbled nonsense. Let's grant wishes, no matter what they may be. Good children surely get prizes for perfect attendance; a show made of the dismantlement of the slandered / This is fake news, see. Keep out; die a dog's death. Mostly sources from ambiguous tip offs

It also touches upon some implications about Muu. Namely, that she has a distorted sense of showing and receiving "love"

A utopia where love is uncertain; there's no way of knowing if any of it's true or not anyways. A utopia where love is uncertain. Hysteria where this is certain

And that she tends to view things like love and hate in a transactional nature.

Here's the question, question- what was brought into being after we hurt each other? Excellent answer; dystopia / A shooting gallery for shotguns; thank you, Merry Bad End / Ignorant irony, though there's no conflict. Like it's a piece of cake, throw an entire life into disorder

Furthermore, this song placed here means it can also be read as her initial relationship with Rei

Love me; for my ambiguous self, become mine. Give me validation, hereditary idiot. Have you written the fiction between you and me? The present state of wild delusions and exaggerations, a collar at hand

"hey"

Useless Angel - Nanawo Akari

Now we get to Useless Angel! Something that definitely highlights Muu's more lazy side

It's not that I won't do it, I just can't! / Aah, lately the word on the street is that there's a no-good angel who makes up for her uselessness with angelic power... Well, that's the plan! / I wanna get a good score on my upcoming test, but my brain can't keep up and my thoughts are clattering around. It's Saturday, and I wanna get up early but I can't stop playing online games in the middle of the night / Just lemme say there's nothing I can do about it! Even though I stuck my halo in my mouth / "But can you really fly if you work hard?" I'm making a face that looks like that

But it also shows more of her earnest desire for affection, and the lengths she's willing to go to receive it,

I want to convey to you more and more of my feeling being inadequate. But, when I'm noticed, I get nervous, a miscommunication. My blinking halo is cracking, but with this, I'll change your mind about my identity. I said it's a bluff, but the truth is that there's a foggy feeling of love. I want to search for it with you. / Hey, the no-good, no-good, no-good, no-good me- you'll love her! / I'll make your heart beat, beat, beat, beat just for you! If you'd just look at me seriously, I'd probably do it!

And her anxieties about not being deserving of said affection. Or receiving it for reasons that have nothing to do with her as a person.

But am I at least alright? / I hid my feeling of love in that kind of paper-mache shell, but I want to be laughing with you. Hey the no-good, no-good, no-good, no-good me... are you okay with her? To tell the truth, I don't have any self confidence. I'm an angel, you know. My head is spinning, spinning, spinning, spinning. It is filled with nothing but you- that's what I've been thinking about!

I think I'll be able to fly with this love I've received, since I'm an angel

It's not that I won't do it, I just can't!

Er, well, I'll put a lot of effort in anyway!

Chameleon - Surii

And Chameleon represents Muu in the midst of her efforts to earn love meaningfully. As I said before in this post, Muu doesn't want people to just fawn over her for no reason. And this time she's putting in her all to catch the attention she wants from Rei!

I get dizzy from falling in love burningly. I want to be loved, so I'm being an honour student. As I get irritated, my heart is scattered- but I'm a chameleon that can blend in this much / I want to resist to ask you for your affection. I want to show you the best attitude / A while crying and a while falling in love again. Today's makeup can't be messed with / A passionate chameleon becoming half dead again, but next time, for sure. A passionate chameleon. I'm a chameleon that just wants to be loved by you. Transform and diving into the average class. A complete change into the life of the lower class, piling up the dynamite on myself. Oh my, what a damp noise

But of course, Muu is someone who can't help but stay true to herself, even if it causes her trouble. As much as she tries to hide it, not everything can be covered up by hard work and determination.

The transformation is not perfect; my entire body is not something you desire. I take those dynamites little by little, apparently dangerous / Do you still wanna be loved? / A while buttering up and a while melting; I gotta check today's trend. Dazzling from singing flamingly, living a life with the passing grade. My resentful heart sways back and forth; I'm a chameleon that can be a part of it / My throat is parched, feeling the moment. But can't be forgiven because my outfit is way too flashy.

Even if it's painful, it's just something she ends up slipping back into. And so the loop of effort and pain continues.

Dunno... I cried so much that even my true original colour disappeared. When I tried to run away because it was too hard for me, you smiled at me.

Only want you to love me, is it not enough? Still not enough so try to blend in, chameleon

Ai Janai - DAZBEE

Yes, I know Gunsli has brought this specific song before. It's a great comparison and you should all give it a read when you have the chance! However, I do have my own reasoning. Especially it being placed where it is! Besides, I do do things a bit different from her, even if there are similarities.

But yes! We are slowly approaching the eye of the storm now. Everything is turning upside down and tensions are beginning to run high. Muu's starting to lose it, lost between her desire for love and her desire to earn it. And that's mixing with the burgeoning realization that maybe Rei wouldn't ever like her.

This isn't love, so depressed I feel sick. This isn't love; it isn't, right? Is that the most ridiculous thing you've ever heard? Denied, isn't it? / On an answer sheet with A, B, and Cs, I gladly marked each question wrong. Could we have a secret love? "let's solve the hard questions together", "I'll wait for you after school" ...as if you would say that. / Before I fall apart, I wanna confess about this love that won't go away / Something's wrong with me, I must be going crazy. I'm in a drunken stupor filled with regret /I'm half joking and about to cry / I won't get my hopes up

Further and further until we enter it and anything can be set off with something as simple as a push or shove.

My sixth sense is tingling, I realized I really need to see you / It's like I'm sucked into a vortex each time I remember, and I can't get away

I look up the psychology of your actions online for signs / "Let's share secret looks between us", "I'll be standing in the hallway" ...but you're not listening, are you?

You'd resent me for the deal I've made in my head

Is this respite before I'm faced with a dilemma?

(Bonus!) Notice - Moe Shop

It's the bonus round! Also known as the song I keep dithering about putting in the playlist or not. It just feels. Very fitting for this moment.

Signal broken, error, retry. No one told me how to do this. Faith, belief un-fucking-believable. Shaking, wavering proof of my love / Taking long to get a reply, regretting. Maybe I'm thinking about it too much. Shaking, wavering, vibrating

That sensitive age where you wanna start a coup, can't pick up anything dropped. Stand, bow, this is a warzone

Cut off 5cm of my school skirt, feeling a little blue and sentimental. Senpai please, notice me. I already know there's a sweetie, so bad that I seriously consider suicide. It really hurts. / Eyes glaring in the dark

A piano in the evening, Ivory skies above. I hear a voice calling someone to stop. Please almighty god, stop those footsteps before the magic of misunderstanding fades

"Please, senpai. Notice me"

Short lived rumours last 75 days. That couple who were dating, broken up already, love is a lie.

Messed Up! - Natsuyama Yotsugi

And now we arrive at the incident- including this, only five more songs to go...! Thankfully God's Parasol is very short. More like a preview than anything. But back on track! We finally reach a release and now Muu has to deal with the aftermath.

I messed up and I killed 'em!? I caused a big commotion in the early afternoon- a rouge coloured puddle. Ah, they went and died!! I've gone and done this and that, and now I'm getting worried. I wipe my sweat away as the cicadas cry. Crisis! Crisis! My thoughts go 'round and 'round. This story's taken a dark turn, oh... / There's nothing I can do. Escaping into a träumerei, please, close my eyelids already

"Co-ming. Who is it?" I open the door to a flood of justice "Could you tell us the truth about this incident" "Actually no, first, a word of apology please" Ah, I'm sorry, I'm s-s-sorry. I've been a bad girl, that's why please / I'm just getting my just desserts / My offenses are as stated. Oh judge, please send me to the gallows already / They messed up and killed 'em!? What a big fuss over nothing, a story turned märchen / and the whole crowd laughs like fools

Darling - Keina Suda

And now the aftermath starts to set in. After all, as we've seen in milgram (and Undercover) Muu is a girl filled with regret and wistfulness

Am I not good enough? I know I'm the only one / I can't win your heart. I know you better than anyone / Darling, I'll give you my everything- please, give me all your love

There is no point in being alone. Words couldn't be created. I know- I know, but I keep pretending. We can't be together; our hearts will stay apart / but my love for you is shameless / Panicked, you were having too much fun

Just forget it, I'll be waiting for all this to end / Darling, take me someday; I long for that day to come

God's Parasol - Shikiura

This is so short I feel like I could just put all the lyrics here lmao. So that's what I'm gonna do

With the parasol god gave me, I'll come to you, fluttering in the air. I don't need anything else, melting away with your sweet kisses. With the parasol god gave me, I'll come to you, fluttering in the air. Why won't you say anything other than goodbyes?

First Love Diary - Kashii Moimi

Now we're really getting into the conflicting feelings- the regret, the frustration and sorrow all melding into something manically tangled.

I could never come to hate you, and so this ingrained self-restraint has no function. I'm forever remembering the secrets shared just between us two. Do I have to keep my feelings under lock and key? Saying "I want to see you" is my signal that I've been hurt, but I'm reluctant to cry all by my lonesome after putting on a brave front. / It'll do me no good (Don't leave) to get this attached to you. (me alone...) / please don't abandon me / I want to stay gentle (I'm the best in the world)

Dizzily inhaling your gaze, I don't even know what I've been doing to survive until now (You're heartless, aren't you?) I hate it, darling. I beg you, grasp my hand and rebuild me as someone new. Just as you want me! (Aren't I remarkable?) Maybe everything about me is becoming immoral in an indifferent and imbecilic way. Yet your hands are forever lovely (this is our starting point) / Indeed your words are my drug. I'm falling upside down, so won't you catch me? (And take me away from these dark days?) / Even so, darling... (I want you)

I hate it darling, become my sustenance! You know, I can't feel a single thing. You're constantly not there (Is nothingness so awful?) I love you. Can you tell me there'll never be another?! / "My first love won't be fulfilled" Then what should be done about me, who was able to fulfill it?

Will it always be so painful? Yes, yes, I feel the same way. So let's hurry up and go together (to heaven)

Chronophobia - 2進P

And finally, the point Muu was at when she was whisked away to Milgram. This is the point where the mania has faded, only leaving hurtful memories that dig into her psyche.

Time is projected so clearly; it goes on everywhere. Beautiful lights deceive my eyes as usual. I sloppily tore the flickering image that's always next to me into pieces- you know, even if I close my eyes, it's still there. I dislike everything about time. I don't care at all for eternity. The bitter words and their meaning don't accomplish anything; they've left intense scars and won't stop.

Why exactly is that moon still waxing and waning? I can hear that deeply warped noise so close to me. I run a tightly gripped knife across my face, wanting that unpleasant sound to disappear. Don't touch me, don't come near me, sounds of time. Since I'm begging, just kill me already.

There's no smile in my eyes. There is only the unstopping memory someone has violated me with.

Why, why do I keep seeing it? Please, stop it. Shut my eyes. / Please, stop it. Let me sleep.

henlo, i'm bee 🐝 (22, she/her, gmt+) and i'm so excited to be here as a big fan of the boys and district x's setting !! today i bring oh sae to the table, an antihero and a criminal who punishes criminals. that said, his sense of what's right or wrong is ambiguous and his golden heart is kinda twisted. i have so many plans for him so i'd love to write with every single one of u, please like this post and i'll jump to ur inbox first! but i'll eventually reach out to everyone soon hehe (˶´ ˘ `˶) here's his profile (warning: wall of text) and i do have a plots page if u r interested! below is a quick summary of sae and some plot ideas, but i'm a girlie that loves brainstorming more sooo enjoy ur stay! it's midnight here so i'm off to bed now zzz

summary

26 y/o, manager at toast & coffee 24-hour diner and has a very tight bond with the restaurant's owner

born & raised in district x, middle-class family

lives with mom, dad's in jail. has a bad relationship with them 'cause they hid dad's criminal background from him and his dumbass believed them for 14 years

( tw: murder ) his power manifested when the criminals invaded their home and sae murdered them when he was 14. dad took the blame and went to the detention center

has always wanted to be the type of nice, kind-hearted marvel heroes but his hatred for criminals is too much that it turned him into a violent dude

still applied to the pinnacle institute at 20 'cause he wanted to fight criminals in daylight. was the last one on the acceptance list, tried so hard to pass his classes only to be expelled from attacking his bully

fed up with everything, decided to go on his own path and beat criminals in his own style. slowly, his moral compass became broken and he became what he hated the most: a criminal. but they pay him good, so why not?

tidbits:

in between jobs, he often patrols nearby areas to keep an eye on any criminal he sees. he's always in the mood to kick some ass because punishing them guys is a hobby now. that's how he's the "batman of red lane"

would blow up their heads for entertainment

the type to crack bad jokes with a straight face. he isn't cold like his demeanor, he actually enjoys chatting and being goofy but keeps his distance. he makes sure the wall he puts up is visible without the need to mention

because he's a criminal and sometimes a monster, peeps would assume that he's selfish and irresponsible. in fact, he's very committed to whatever he's tasked with and u can always rely on him.

"i got promoted for a reason, dummy."

sometimes would intentionally explode random stuff to scare his buddies off. he thinks it's funny

moved on from whatever complicated relationship he has with his parents but the wall is there. can't act like they didn't give him trust issues

is under nepa's radar and he's aware of that

gets away with committing crimes because whoever paid him to do the jobs usually takes care of the aftermath as part of the deal

enjoys helping people. some are shocked to see him helping a grandma cross the street

after being expelled from the institute, sae doesn't plan his future anymore. prefers to go with the flow. right now, he's just tryna see if he could make it until 30

plot ideas (some will be taken from my plots page!)

partner in crime, criminal buddies, or supporters in general because he can't make genuine friends with his way of living... he's lonely yall

or "friends" who are very wary of this friendship it's fun too like u are teasing him then stop midway because who knows what if he blows ur head off next

rivals/enemies! sae's easily anyone's rival LMAO. u could hate his moral compass / think he's fked up / hate antihero tropes or he probably did something bad to u or the people u know

someone who thinks he's just a trashy criminal tryna play the hero game

encounter with the batman of red lane while he's on the nobody-asked-him-to patrol

n.e.p.a agents who try to recruit/trick him because his power would be useful for their experiments. he's going to be very sus of every agent he meets let's see what will ur muse bring

frequents at toast & coffee. he's very nice to his customers so u can puke on the floor and he will clean it up for up

pinnacle institute classmates! friends, foes, study buddies, crushes, people who know the truth about his expel and actually feel bad for him

i'm also a sucker for neighbor plots 🤲

just some basic ideas to get you inspired! let's develop more together

[teddybeartoji]

MICKEYYYYYYY WDYMMMMMMMMMMM SUGU SELFSHIP??????? MISU???????????? 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 I CRIED . IT’S SO CUTW I NEED TO MARRY YOU BOTH!!!!!! holding both your hands so very gently………….

cracks knuckles . anyway i have some questions 😇 how does suguru show you that he loves you? (through words or otherwise?) and how do you show him that you love him?? :3 do you have any pets? any regular date spots???

ALSO . which of his clothes do you like to steal most……. i know you steal them it’s okay we all do. it’s a sugu selfship staple . he’ll just have to deal with it bc he loves us <33333

ARIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII:333333333333333333333 EEEEHEHHEHEHEE THIS IS SOOO FUCKING EXCITINGGGG MISU IS FINALLY HEREE!!!! i am already letting you know that this uhh.. will be long lmao get something to drink get something to eat and enjooyy:333

okok so first things first!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! like i already spilled to you in dms - this is a little college roomie au okay. just a little 20something mickey and just a little 20something suguru suffering from sleepless nights together<33333 i am one hundred percent going with the literature major suguru bc oh my god that feels just so so fucking right. he also has a part-time job at a little bookstore/cafe place!!!! i often hang out there too just bc it's such a cozy little spot,, there isn't too many people and he gets to put on his own playlist!!!!

i think (saying this abt my own alleged relationship btw) we're not actually a couple yet yk?? there's just a lot going on overall aaand so we just do what feels comfortable. we're very very close!!!!!!!!!! liike i often sleep in his bed bc i sleep better when i do it with someone/ around someone. and this btw makes me feel kinda bad bc he still can't sleep.. i like to think that he might catch just a few more zzz's with me there but ahhh.. he tells me that he does too but he really isn't the best liar.

oh my sad little meow meow:((((( this is literally him but yk add a few years

ok anyway so yesterday when i was thinking about what exactly misu is the miguel series popped into my head. it's called rigor mortis and it's done by the lovely @/loganlermanstanaccount!!! i'm not basing misu off of that i genuinely think they're kind of two sides of the same coin if that makes sense. to put it shortly the series is abt a reader who is going through a very hard breakup and miguel who is dealing with grief. they're both clearly going through things but that's kind of what makes them bond and that's what connects them. i know your tbr is long too and you have stuff to do so i'll just pluck out a snippet for you because the writing is just fucking incredible. i was literally up every wednesday to read the new parts lmao this series was also one of the things that inspired me the most

this is a snippet from the third part - they were here, she says (sorry i had to take screenshots bc tumblr quite literally just didn't allow me to type it all out smhh)

this is just really reminds me of suguru. sorry this really is a lot lmao imagine asking abt a selfship and getting a novel back about something different pls this is the loserville way okay. but yeah i just think it goes really well with my little roomie suguru (and me i guess). different types of grief but somehow it's all the same.

AAANYWAYY NOW TO YOUR ACTUAL QUESTIONS😭😭😭 a romantic relation ship or not.. suguru let's me know he cares through acts of service!!!!!! like grocery shopping and just getting me a little treat every time he goes out yk? i mean overall we both do the laundry together but he just gets to it faster than i do,, he takes care of my clothes and his without a second thought. he really is a malewife through and through damn...

and i show my appreciation by being a little clingy. HEARRR ME OUTTTTTTT LISTEN LISTEN LISTENNNNNNN though he likes to act all tough and shit (smhhh) we all know he likes the attention. and he's so used to satoru being clingy too (btw oh my god mitoru as best friends<333333333333) so when i kind of follow him around too, he feels more like at home yk? it's not necessarily even physical touch, at least not at first but just that i keep sitting in the same room with him. kind of like parallel play. i think he really likes the company even if it's just the two of us sitting in silence. liiike he's having a smoke by the window in his room while i'm idk scrolling on tumblr on his bed and it just feels very comfortable.

another love language of ours is listening to music together. i think while yes i listen to a lot of pop too, our tastes are very similar. so taking the public transport while standing side by side while sharing earbuds is very typical for us<333

WAIT ALSOOOOO i am always always always here for turtleneck suguru but.. i think in my head..... this!!!!!!!!!! like eeeespecially the blue jacket one ohhhhh this piece of art has changeeed mee i literally cannot stop thinking about it i really really love the idea of this mm like streetwear type of suguru??? is that what you'd call it idk i'm bad with labels but yeah this is misu's suguru<333333 ari i love him sm he's so boyfriend i mean roomie. oh god wait i have more to say,, his style is soooo so versatile though!!!!!!!! bc while overall i kinda imagine him wearing hoodies (i am. biased), he still does really like turtlenecks. and he has his fair share of long coats. ahhhh he likes to switch it up a lot!!!!!!!!!!! HE'S SO STYLISH I'M SO JEALOUS HE LOOKS SO FUCKING GOOD NO MATTER WHAT HE WEARS THIS IS SO UNFAIRR!!!!!!!!

on the topic of clothes!!!!!!!!! i steal his hoodies>:3333333 constantly. i can't really wear sweaters so those are safe from me but oh... the second i spot a hoodie of his... mwahahaha it is mine now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEY'RE SOOOO FUCKING COMFORTABLEEEEE WHAT THE FUCKKKK AND THEY SMELL SO FUCKING GOOOODDD LIKE I THINK I'M GENUINELY ADDICTED TO WEARING THEMM AAAAAA and yes just like in your little snippet.. he does kind of lose his mind when he seems me in one>:33333333333

SHRIMPMIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! REMEMBER HOW I TOLD U EARLIER THAT I LEAVE HIM OUT OF IT BC I JUST GET TOO SAD AT THE THOUGHT OF LEAVING HIM ALONE AT HOME?? BUT NOW ME AND SUGURU LIVE TOGETHER ANYWAY WHICH MEANS.. THAT I DON'T HAVE TO LEAVE HIM ALONE WHICH MEANS THAT SHRIMPIN IS CANON IN THE MISU UNIVERSE!!!!!!!!!!! AAAAAAAAA this is so exciting. he loves suguru so much. and sugu finds it so funny when i try to act like that doesn't bother me😒😒😒 and every time i let the little beast gnaw on my hand (he is feral.) suguru scolds me and it's uhh kind of hot ngl like he comes over to make shrimp stop while grabbing my wrist and taking my hand away yeah i die a little every time i won't even lie

now... since....... i am on a roll (rip ari)............. i definitely fall faster btw. uhm like stupidly fast but i don't think anyone is surprised here..... but idk he's just a little bit scary in a way that i just simply could never make the first move...................................... he's literally just so handsome and so great i feel weak okay don't judge me (i know you understand) buuuuut i don't think he'd actually take too long to mmm grow fond of me either.. he is not as strong as he thinks he is.

i also need to talk about mitoru as best friend i just have to. mitoru is always meant to be no matter what universe okay we are Connected. he comes over SOOOOOOOOOOO OFTENNN he almost lives here too lmao we play video games together a lot<33333333 and suguru does get a little jealous<333333333333 he's so cute. satoru makes so much fun of him btw and i try to.. not think too much abt it or else my heart will explode.

OKAY WAHH I THINK NOW IS ENOUGH THOUGH. ENOUGH OF BLABBERING ON LMAO PLSS MISU JUST MAKES SO MUCH SENSE ACTUALLY I KIND OF DO FEEL BAD ABOUT NOT MAKING THIS INTO A THING SOONERR AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHH

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR INDULGING ME AS ALWAYS ARI!!!!! IT LITERALLY MEANS SOOO SO MUCH TO MEEE AND THANK YOU FOR READING THROUGH ALL THIS😭😭😭😭😭😭 I LOVE YOU SOOOSO MUCH I HOPE YOU'RE HAVING SUCH A LOVELY DAY PLEASE REMEMBER TO EAT AND DRINK WATER AND REST!!!!!!!!! PLEASE SMILE LOTS N LOTS N LOTS AND PLEASE REMEMBER THAT MISU LOVES YOU SOOOO SO SOOOOOO FUCKING BADD<3333333

K J Z with jeff the killer

K J Z w/ Jeff the Killer (fluff alphabet)

Ik I'm putting this in the queue and itll be a few days but god this cut on my fingers is driving me insane, and the fact hes just slightly worse than a paper cut is making me so... unsilly... hisshiss heal already!! It feels uncomfortable and vaguely hurts when it touches anything!!

Prompts: kiss, jealousy, zzz

Notes: reader is GN but the post focuses on jeff, written on mobile

CWs: mentions of murder

KISS

His lips are a little chapped and there might he some dry blood on his face that'll flake off into you but otherwise its... not bad

Prefers quick kisses that have some force behind them than slow ones- hes not forcing a kiss on you rather hes moving so fast it kind of knocks you back

Does slow down and get gentler with time as he gets used to affection and learning what works and what doesnt, so it's not all that bad!

JEALOUSY

Very jealous and he doesnt take shit from no one, so its best not to purposefully test him to see what he would do if you "catch interest" for someone else

God forbid someone tries to make a move on you, even worse if you're clearly uncomfortable

Doesnt hide the fact that he guts the person as soon as they're alone and out of everyones line of sight

At least creeps get dealt with..!

ZZZ

Oh you poor soul.... hes not a good sleeping partner

Snores loud as hell, tosses around in his sleep, steals the blanket, and so on

Good news is that he doesnt like sharing beds anyway so hes always sleeping else where, and when he spends the night he usually just... doesnt sleep.. kind of just takes to bothering you

Act 12

Episode 8: The Person I Admire

Working w/ Maybelle Lace

Note: As you read, you will see that some sentences highlighted in a different color, this is what they indicate. Pink: Flashback Blue: Characters are acting

❄︎❄︎❄︎❄︎❄︎❄︎❄︎❄︎❄︎❄︎❄︎❄︎❄︎

???: Let’s walk hand in hand.

Sakuya: Yeah!

???: It'll be dangerous if you jump around too much.

Sakuya: Okay!

Sakuya: …!

Sakuya: (What was that? I felt like I had a very gentle and nostalgic dream.)

Citron: Zzz...

Sakuya: ...It must be pretty early.

Sakuya: (There's still some time until I need to get to the theater so I can sleep a little longer, but I'm not sure...)

Sakuya: (Banri said that Syu and Reni are also coming to today's rehearsal.)

Sakuya: (It's been a while since I've played a lead role in a performance, so I'm a little nervous.)

Sakuya: ...Alright.

Sakuya: (I might feel better if I practice a bit on my own in the theater.)

Amadate: ...

Sakuya: Oh, Amadate...?!

Amadate: Ah, you are...

Sakuya: I’m Sakuya Sakuma from Mankai Company.

Amadate: Yes, that's right. Good morning, you're up early.

Sakuya: What are you doing here?

Amadate: I stopped by for a bit on my way to work. I just really wanted to see—

Sakuya: Huh?

Amadate: By the way, I heard that your show starts tomorrow?

Amadate: It's been a hot topic of discussion at the board meetings. I'm looking forward to the second part of the performance.

Sakuya: Thank you! Will you also be coming to see the show, Amadate?

Amadate: The entire board of directors has been invited, so I'll find time to come and see it.

Sakuya: Then I'll do my best!

Sakuya: This time, I'm playing the role of an orphan raised by space pirates and somehow, it resonates with my own life.

Sakuya: I've always admired the pirate captain played by you and started acting because of it, and now I’ve found a place here at Mankai Company.

Sakuya: I’m truly happy that you’ll be watching.

Amadate: ...I heard that this performance was built off of the concept made by the first generation’s scriptwriter, Hakkaku.

Sakuya: Yes! Both Tsuzuru and the God Troupe's scriptwriter, Madoka, co-wrote the script together.

Amadate: Actually, the script for the pirate performance that you saw back then was inspired by Hakkaku’s concept of the private performance.

Amadate: It couldn’t even compare to Hakkaku's scripts though.

Amadate: I actually wanted him to write it, but since he was working exclusively for this theater company, that didn't happen.

Amadate: That pirate performance tour was the last time I traveled across the country as an actor.

Sakuya: Is that so...?!

Amadate: We received a letter of gratitude from the police department— They wanted to thank the troupe members for our quick actions in evacuating the elementary school students safely from the fire that broke out during the play.

Amadate: The troupe's achievement was even featured in a national newspaper. That incident further raised the profile of the Hyakka Troupe.

Amadate: Furthermore, I am proud to say that one young man with a promising future decided to pursue a career in theater thanks to that performance.

Sakuya: That's... I've still got a long way to go...!

Amadate: I wish you good luck with your performances. Well, I'll be off then.

Sakuya: Thank you very much!

Sakuya: ...

Izumi: Huh? You're here early.

Sakuya: Good morning. I woke up early, but felt a bit restless staying in bed...

Izumi: You're quite enthusiastic.

Sakuya: Actually, I just happened to meet the actor I admire.

Izumi: The actor you admire?

Sakuya: The one I told you about earlier!

Sakuya: It's the actor who played the captain in the pirate performance by Hyakka Theater Company that I saw when I was in elementary school.

Izumi: Really? So you found out who it was?

Sakuya: His name is Keiju Amadate, and I heard that he had retired from acting and is now the head of a theater company.

Izumi: …!

Izumi:  Amadate... Really?

Sakuya: Yes!

Sakuya: He told me that the Mankai Company's performance was being talked about at the board meeting...

Sakuya: I'll have to work hard for the second part!

Izumi: (I never thought that he'd be the actor that Sakuya looks up to...)

Izumi: (And what was he doing here? What did he come to do?)

Izumi: (I wonder if I should talk to Kamikizaka about it later.)

Izumi: (They said they would arrive right before the show started, so I might not make it in time...)

Izumi: (Anyway, we have to make the dress rehearsal and the deal go smoothly no matter what.)

Kabuto: ...Geez, look who’s showing off.

Suspicious Man: ...

Kabuto: ?

Kabuto: (What is that guy doing...)

Kabuto: ...Hey, you there.

Suspicious Man: …!

Kabuto: (What the...? What’s up with him...)

Kabuto: ——Smoke?

Kabuto: (It can't be—)

Suspicious Man: There's a fire!!!

Passerby A: Huh? What?

Passerby B: A fire? There's smoke coming out!

Passerby C: Kyaah!

Passerby D: It's coming from Mankai Theater! Hurry and call the fire department!

Kabuto: (They got me...!)

Kabuto: (Anyway, I need to call 119—)

Firefighter: Firefighting operations have ended.

Izumi: ...Thank you.

Firefighter: Only a few small areas on either side of the theater actually caught fire.

Firefighter: However, there were a large number of smoke bombs placed on the ceiling, and smoke appeared to be coming out of them.

Izumi: Smoke bombs...?

Firefighter: Due to large-scale firefighting efforts, the exterior walls of the theater building have been severely damaged, therefore entry is prohibited for safety and preservation of the site.

Izumi: ...

Firefighter: After this, the police will conduct an on-site investigation, but due to the high likelihood of a criminal act, we ask for your cooperation.

Izumi: U-Um, tomorrow is the opening day of our performance, will it be restored in time—

Firefighter: I'm sorry, but I'm afraid that may be difficult...

Izumi: ...I see. Do you still need me to stay here?

Firefighter: No, you only need to provide us with your contact information.

Izumi: I understand. Thank you for your hard work.

Izumi: (I never expected things to turn out like this...)

Sakyo: Are you done over there?

Izumi: Oh, Sakyo, is everyone okay?

Sakyo: All media personnel, invited guests, and staff were safely evacuated. No injuries.

Izumi: Thank goodness...

Izumi: I was told that smoke bombs had been placed on the ceiling.

Sakyo: So they intentionally make it look like a large-scale fire? The exterior walls have been torn apart by the water pressure to extinguish the fire.

Izumi: ...

Sakyo: Let's head back to the dorm for now. We should send the others home. There's no point in staying here forever.

Izumi: You're right...

Izumi: ?

Manager: Izumi, we've received an email addressed to the theater company!!

Izumi: …!

Sakyo: What is it?

Izumi: Manager said we received an email—

Sakyo: "Disband the troupe immediately. Otherwise, the audience and company members will be the next to get harmed."

Sakyo: A threat.

Izumi: (Was this also the work of Amadate...? I can't believe he would go this far.)

Izumi: ...I think it would be better to consult with the police about this, including all the incidents that happened before.

Sakyo: The person responsible for the arson might be caught soon...

Sakyo: Considering what’s happened so far, there’s a high possibility that only the hired subordinates will be caught, and that the investigation will not be able to find the mastermind.

Izumi: ...

Izumi: ...For now, we need to discuss future plans with everyone.

Sakyo: Agreed.
