— cw: fluff, silliness, highly suggestive, reader implied to be femme, overuse of terms of endearment (sweetie, sweetheart), mdni to be safe — notes: @leighsartworks216 this is your doing. *affectionately shakes fist*
“Sylus,” you begin one day on a whim, mindlessly scrolling through your socials.
“Yes, sweetie?” he purrs, enthralled by the deckled pages of a book, languidly massaging your foot in his lap.
“Are you ticklish?”
He chuckles something murky behind you. “Not that I am aware of.”
“Really?”
“Yes.”
“Are you sure?”
You don’t have to look back to sense the deadpanned look on his face. “I’ve lived in this skin for a long time, sweetheart. I think I would know if I were ticklish.”
You briskly sit up, maneuvering until you’re facing him. You lean closer with curious eyes, perched on the couch of his study like a feline.
“I don’t believe you.”
Sylus scoffs. Quietly sets his book down on the coffee table, a challenge tugging one corner of his mouth upwards. He holds his hands up, uncrossing his legs, something of mischief shining in his eyes as he sits back in an easy slouch.
“You’re welcome to see for yourself, sweetie.”
You don’t like how that sounds. How he drawled out the term of endearment. Still, you’re incredibly persistent. You’ve been exclusive for some months now, yet he’s still an enigma.
Your lips twisting with determination, you begin your examination. First, you start with the obvious places that would typically make people squeal—near his collarbones, in his armpits, down his sides, drag your nails inwards across his stomach. You peer up at his face. If he feels anything, he doesn’t reveal it, still wearing that insufferably smug look as he observes you.
You don’t find any sensitive zones on his torso. Just defined planes of muscle that make your pulse quicken and cause you to swallow past the dry film of your throat.
You proceed with your impromptu frisking, raking your nails down the sides of his devastating quads. Glance up. Nothing. Hmm.
You swivel your hands inwards, tracing over the inward trajectory of his thighs. He parts them for you, and it becomes evident he’s enjoying this. Enjoying tormenting you with the catastrophic shape of his body. Like he knows you know he feels good.
You cast him a pensive look. He feigns innocence with a shrug, signaling you to continue your investigation with the flit of his eyes.
So you do, creeping your fingers down the inner parts of his knees. Outwards. Pluck yourself from the sticky leather of the settee and sit between his legs on the floor, tracing over his calves and ankle bones.
You glance up. He still radiates complacency, yet his eyes hold something heavier than their usual, teasing weight. It’s something unmistakable, but you ignore it, instead testing the socked soles of his feet for any signs of vulnerability. Any minute twitches, any jolts or hitched breaths. No dice.
You relent with a sigh, crawling onto his lap. His heavy hands clasp around where thigh meets hip, keeping you steady, your thighs framing his.
“Guess you’re not ticklish,” you say with a solemn smile, twining your arms about his neck.
Why you thought the big, bad wolf of Onychinus would have any sensitive zones in the first place is beyond you. Maybe it was just an excuse to feel him up.
“I told you,” he husks affectionately. Voice crackles in that way that makes your belly swoop, and he closes a tender hand around your nape to draw you in for a kiss.
Your mouths part with a sticky click. And you’re dizzy and laughing something light as your foreheads press together, pheromones and fondness filling what little space lies between your bodies.
“Kudos for trying, sweetheart.”
You don’t enjoy being proven wrong, but you suppose it’s fine if you lose to him. Leaning back, you study his pretty features, the delicate sweep of his lashes as his eyes slip shut.
You thread your fingers through his hair, grazing one particularly vulnerable spot at the top of his cranium, and you don’t miss how he tenses beneath you. How he winces, releasing a sound so far-off and delicate, you’re not sure if you heard it in the first place.
Curious, you try for the spot again, evoking the same reaction, and Sylus’ hold around your waist tightens the slightest bit.
With a troublesome smile, you test the opposite side, garnering a similar response and—
Oh.
Oh, this.
Like the devilish little fiend you are, you scratch these newly revealed spots simultaneously, reveling in his response. How his carefully constructed composure begins to crumble beneath you.
He twitches and fidgets under your care, lips parting, a low, guttural sound dredged from his throat. He unconsciously bunts his head against your hands, leaning into your touch. You watch as a pretty, peachy flush creeps into his cheeks, staining the tips of his ears, and his brows scrunch in something of anguish.
Had you not known any better, you’d think you were scratching behind the ears of a feline. Had Sylus been a cat in a past life? You giggle mischievously at the notion before something very hot and prominent prods at the inner cut of your thigh.
Before you can investigate, Sylus ensnares your wrists in his hand, and he’s panting, glaring at you with those pretty, scarlet eyes to match the beautiful flush taking possession of his face.
His voice is hoarse. Smoky. Dangerous. You feel the buzz of it pooling warm in the lower reaches of your belly, leaking down between your thighs.
“You keep doing that, and I might have to retaliate, sweetheart.”
You swallow, your throat thickening, your mouth slightly open. Your pulse thrums a war cadence in your ears, and your breaths are short as desire spumes through you.
“You won’t do it,” you challenge, your tone husky. Shaky.
“Is that a challenge?” Sylus returns, his grip on your wrists slackening until he releases them.
He tugs you impossibly closer on his lap via the globes of your ass, and his weighted girth slides deliciously over the center of your thighs, eliciting a bitten-off sound from your mouth. You rest your hands on the defined planes of his chest to maintain a modicum of space, though it’s fruitless.
He draws your head down until your breaths intermingle, long, spindly fingers sneaking beneath your chin to moor you to the spot. He grazes your mouth with his, and a pleasant thrill ripples through you, your fingers pulling at the collar of his shirt.
“Why don’t I show you what happens to naughty girls who test my patience?”

vulnerable | k. mingyu, j. wonwoo (3)
𝒑𝒂𝒊𝒓𝒊𝒏𝒈 kim mingyu x fem!reader x jeon wonwoo
𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒅 𝒄𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒕 2 k
𝒈𝒆𝒏𝒓𝒆 angst, fluff | friends-with-benefits!mingyu, neighbor-and-highschool-crush!wonwoo | you decided! wonwoo is your choice.
𝒘𝒂𝒓𝒏𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒔 mentions about sex i guess?
mingyu is taking his time. wonwoo stays by your side.
• • ┈┈┈┈ ๑ ⋅ ⋯ ୨ ୧ ⋯ ⋅ ๑ ┈┈┈┈ • •
Your heart hurt. It really did.
But Wonwoo was right in front of you, and Mingyu had taken his damn time. You knew from a friend in common that his routine hadn’t changed much. He still met with his friends and attended his after-office get-togethers. He was doing fine.
But you weren’t. You opened his inactive chat at least six times a day. Sometimes you typed and erased, sometimes you just stared at it, hoping Mingyu started typing by the force of manifestation. It never happened.
“I can’t help but ask you, is everything alright?”
Ever since you got closer to Wonwoo, you would regularly visit each other. All it took was a minute-long walk from one corner of the first floor to the other. Now that he had a tiny and fluffy companion, you had more excuses to stop by when you got home from work.
“It’s complicated” you sighed, gently scratching the kitty’s neck.
“I like complicated” he chuckled, bringing his can of beer to his lips as he looked at you with attentive eyes.
“Well… I’ve got this friend who has been my best friend ever since college. We met when he banged on my dorm’s room at two in the morning because he was drunk and thought that was his dorm.” you giggled, reminiscing about that crazy first week as a college student. “He was everywhere I looked, and he seemed to like talking to me. We became close and he has been my rock for more than eight years. But last year, things changed a bit between us”
“You fell in love, right?” Wonwoo’s eyebrows rose.
“Kinda?” you shrugged, giving an awkward laugh “We started as friends with benefits, with some rules to follow. We could kiss and have sex. We could make it stop when one of us asked to. We banned jealousy and we were not exclusive…except-”
“You were being exclusive” he chuckled and shook his head “I don’t see the problem, though. If you two were fine by how things were going…”
“He was not” you sighed, taking a sip of your can so you could continue the story with a little bit more courage “He asked me to start seeing other people so we could follow that stupid rule, and he explicitly said ‘I don’t want us to be a couple’”
Wonwoo seemed to be contemplating where the narrative was heading before he asked “But he still wanted to fuck you?”
“We were not having sex every time we met up — that was what bothered him the most, I guess. Not because of the act in itself, but because he felt we were practically a couple when he came over, cooked with me, and cuddled to sleep instead of being all over each other”
“So…”
“We fought and he finally came over to apologize. But now we’re in this weird position where he doesn’t know what he wants and I’m waiting for him as if I were Rapunzel trapped in a tower. He knows I don’t see him as a friend anymore. But I don’t want to lose him if he chooses to make this end” you looked down to your lap, eyes welling up. Wonwoo shifted from his side of the couch and scooted closer, hugging you with his right arm so you could place your head on the crook of his neck.
“You won’t lose him. It might be weird at the beginning, yes. But he needs you as much as you need him. Do you think he is willing to cut ties with you if he doesn’t choose commitment?”
“I guess he’s not” you mumbled, taking in Wonwoo’s scent to calm down your hiccup.
“If he is the one, and you are his one, there’s nothing to worry about,” his low and calm voice had a magical effect on you, and as you felt the vibrations of his voice through his neck, you began to soothe your worries “ If you still think he’s the one when he’s still not ready to treat you as his girlfriend, maybe time will eventually bring you two together. And if time doesn’t, then… I’m still gonna be here”
“You are an angel” you mumbled, feeling your eyes heavy.
“Only for you”
. . . . . . . . . .
Three weeks. Exactly twenty-one days had passed, and Mingyu was still nowhere to be seen, or heard of.
Day twenty-two was your limit. You had to make a decision, even if he hadn’t made up his mind yet. It was killing you to know that he could come and destroy everything you had built over eight years, and you would remain with a broken heart until he decided to either mend it or turn it into ashes.
You had to prioritize yourself.
We need to talk.
It physically hurt to finally type and send the text instead of erasing it. Your heart started pounding and you thought that it was about to explode, expecting an answer that took three and a half hours to come. And after you read it, you regretted even having the thought of sending that text.
I’ve got plans.
Hot tears traveled down your cheeks, frozen in place, holding your phone close to your heart. Who was that person? Mingyu would never, could never.
And yet he could. He sent those eight years of precious, heartwarming moments to the trash. All those nights you had stayed awake to help him on his projects, while you could have been working on yours. All those events you had been his plus one to help ease his nervousness when you could have stayed at home to study for your postgraduate course. All those kisses that had felt so real, so caringly true.
It was over.
Dinner is ready!
I don’t know if you are coming but if you are, you better hurry.
[Picture]
Homemade, just how you like it 😌
At first, you thought that there was no way you could go in that state. You were just going to ruin that Friday night for Wonwoo.
But after you rubbed your last set of tears away, you took a look at yourself in the mirror and decided that it was not too bad. Wonwoo had seen you worse back then. Also, you needed him. More than anyone else.
Even more than Mingyu.
So you answered.
On my way!
And left your apartment.
“Hi! Oh… What did he do?” the concern in his eyes made yours flood up with tears once more.
“I think he dumped me? I don’t even know if that’s accurate to what happened”
“Come in” Wonwoo mumbled, taking your frame under his long arm and embracing you as soon as he closed the door behind him. “Let it out”
“But the pizza is turning cold” you cried, face buried in his collarbone as he held you close, ruining his shirt with tears.
“We’ll reheat it later,” when he kissed your temple, you felt how your heartbeat got faster, and how relaxed your breathing turned out. His scent always had the effect of a tranquilizer on you, and you were beginning to feel it little by little, from head to toe “Wanna talk about it?”
“I just need to forget him”
And you were determined to do it.
Plus, Wonwoo was making it so easy for you.
When you felt that you had no more tears to shed, he led you to his sofa, and Bomi, his cute kitten, quickly rested himself comfortably on your lap.
“He knows you’re sad” Wonwoo smiled as he came back from the kitchen, a wooden tray with the two yummy-looking pizzas on top.
“He’s too cute” You kept yourself busy petting Bomi as you waited for Wonwoo to bring the wine he had promised.
“Is it too out of place on my part to say ‘Cheers’?” the man asked, giving you your glass and extending his your way.
“You’re the only one I would allow to do that” you softly giggled, clinking his glass with yours “Cheers.”
“Cheers” he chuckled, looking at you in the eye.
. . . . . . . . . .
Six days after your now ex-best friend/ex-friend-with-benefits cut you off, he decided it was the right time to reappear in your life. And you thanked whoever or whatever was above that Wonwoo was holding your hand from the other side of the table when the phone lit up with Mingyu’s notification.
“He’s back” you mumbled absentmindedly, taking the device with your other hand and reading the text aloud “Sorry for keeping you waiting so long. I’m ready to talk now”
Wonwoo’s face fell.
“What…what will you say?”
You sighed, and the first thing your eyes landed on was your and Wonwoo’s intertwined fingers. He was caressing and holding them with so much care that your heart skipped a beat. You raised your gaze to his eyes and laid your heart before you, just for him. For the one who deserved it.
“I told him to take his time, and I must own up to that. However, I never said anything about waiting for him to decide. He will understand that my thoughts and my heart belong to someone else now. Even if it’s soon, even if it has just started. I mean it when I say that I want you. Hell, I have wanted you ever since I was twelve”
“Wh-what?” he squished your hand, and you had to giggle at his response.
“I might have taken a break from being in love with you a couple of years ago. But ever since you came back to my life, it has felt the same, Woo. You might have changed a little, yes, but your kindness, your responsibility, your sensibility, and sensitivity are still the same — I fell in love with you because of those traits of yours. Not to mention your handsomeness.”
It felt right. Wonwoo felt right.
“Why didn’t you say something back then?” he looked cute in that state. He looked as confused as happy.
“You were not as straightforward as you are now” you shook your head “Woo, you ran away from all those girls. How would I assume I had a chance?”
“You were the only one I would have stayed for” he mumbled, and your heart melted. “I’m sorry I never showed it to you. I was the one who assumed it was too obvious on my part”
When your phone lit up again, you decided it was time to let Mingyu know that you were not waiting for him. That you had a right to move on.
“Let me take care of this,” you said, moving to the corner of the table “Proceed with your drink, please” you smiled, softening at his expression. If he was a cartoon, a question mark would have appeared over his head.
You angled your phone and after a couple of shots, you were content with the outcome.
[Picture]
I’m the one who’s busy now. And for real.
When you left the café hand in hand, you couldn’t help but wonder if things would have been different if Mingyu had reached out sometime earlier.
Maybe, just maybe…
But he hadn’t, and you were truly happy with where your life had headed. Right across your door, Wonwoo appeared when you least expected him to. He was there to hold you, to caress you, to care for you — for your meals, for your sleep schedule, for your working hours. He was there when no one else had been.
“What’s got you so smiley?” the reason for your many sleepless nights and enamored sighs during your teenage years asked, squishing your hand as he led you into your building’s elevator.
“You”
As the doors closed, Wonwoo wasted no time and pressed his lips to yours, gently cupping your face with his large but soft hands. You steadied yourself by gripping the sides of his black t-shirt, angling your head to let him have you. All of you.
His kiss felt even better than you had imagined all those years ago. He showed hunger and patience at the same time, he wanted to feel what he had missed for so long and also save it for later.
“You’re amazing” he mumbled over your lips, a gentle smile on his face.
“You are”
“I’m too happy to argue right now.” he pecked your lips again, just in time to get out of the elevator. “But I might do it later”

here is a (long) bit from one of the three WIPs currently in the hopper. yup, its Hallmark Christmas House Tour AU. um, sorry?
Steve had dragged himself out of bed three times. Twice to let the dogs out, once to feed them. Each time, he’d promised himself he would throw some clothes on, and go work out. Only to find himself crawling back into bed instead.
A cold nose snuffling his ear woke him for the fourth time. He cracked open one eye. “I'm up, OK? I’m up.”
Houston gave a happy woof, while Austin danced around in excited circles.
Steve sat up with a groan, rubbing his shoulder. Fuck. He hated jetlag. Of course 8IA didn’t care—they had scheduled photoshoots in three different countries in the past month. At least he had a few weeks off—and then he had to do some stupid ESPN sport thing in Honolulu.
He got up, dragged on a pair of sweatpants, stumbled to the patio door. Let the boys out, glanced at his watch. Almost eleven o’clock. He padded into the kitchen, started a pot of coffee, and then opened the fridge, because he was starving.
He’d bought groceries last night, but assembling any of it into something edible seemed like a lot of effort. He was still staring at the contents of his fridge, when the sound of scratching at the patio door brought him back to reality.
He went over, let the dogs in—and swore when the doorbell rang. Why was anyone disturbing him on a Saturday—oh shit. The damn interior designer.
And he was in his oldest sweatpants. And nothing else.
Damnit.
For one fleeting second, Steve considered putting on real clothes. Instead he ordered the dogs to stop barking, and padded to the door. He opened it, expecting—well, an interior designer. Instead, there was a short guy, in a dress shirt and slacks, standing on his porch.
Muscular, broad shoulders, blond hair, and blue eyes. Exactly the kind of guy Steve would date—if he was allowed to date.
“Hi. I’m Danny Williams.” Those blue eyes flicked down to the holes in Steve’s sweatpants, back up. “My sister Stella called you yesterday?”
“Uh, yeah.” Steve was really regretting not getting dressed now. He waved the dogs back. “Come in. And don’t mind the dogs. They’re friendly.”
Danny gave him an overly polite smile, stepped inside.
“Would you, uh, like coffee?” He turned around—and realized he’d just dropped his luggage in the hall last night.
“Sure.” Danny followed him, stepping around the luggage. His tone was now hovering somewhere between ‘I’m being professional’ and ‘I’m dealing with a crazy person’. “I’d love a cup.”
So much for making a good first impression.
Steve mentally kicked himself for not remembering the appointment as he headed to the kitchen. At least his kitchen was clean—because he’d ordered a pizza last night and then crashed.
He poured two cups. “You take milk or sugar?”
“Black’s fine.” Danny’s eyes now flicked to the dining room. “So, how long have you owned this place?”
“Nine years.” He started to take a sip of coffee, stopped when Danny gave him an odd look. “Why?”
“I was just—expecting more furniture.”
Steve was about to point out that he had furniture, except—he’d finally gotten rid of his two ridiculously uncomfortable couches several months ago. And he’d been so busy traveling, that he’d never replaced them.
He’d also never gotten around to buying a dining room table, because he normally ate at the kitchen island, or used the table on the side deck.
“I haven’t had a lot of down time.” The excuse sounded lame, even to him.
“Uh huh.” Danny set his mug down. “Have you eaten?”
Steve opened his mouth, but Danny continued talking. “That’s what I thought. You know, the best way to deal with a hangover is to eat something.”
And then he opened Steve’s fridge, and started pulling out various things.
Steve opened his mouth to protest he wasn’t hungover—then closed it because Danny had grabbed a knife from the knife block and a cutting board from the dish drainer, and was now chopping up a tomato.
Very competently chopping up a tomato.
Maybe it was because he was so fucking tired, but Steve was having trouble figuring out what the hell he was supposed to do. The hottest guy he’d ran into in years was doing cooking stuff. In his kitchen.
“I need a bowl.” Danny moved on to chopping up deli meat. “And a pan and a spatula.”
He found himself pulling down a bowl, grabbing a frying pan and a spatula. And setting out a couple of plates and forks.
“Thanks.” Danny pointed the knife toward one of the stools. “I got this. Sit down and drink some coffee. Or better yet, grab some water. Trust me, it’ll help.”
Steve gave up. He grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge, and sat down. “Austin, Houston, stay out of his way.”
“It’s OK, I’m used to it.” He finished chopping up everything, began breaking eggs into the bowl. “My sister has a golden retriever who’s always under foot. Whisk?”
“Second drawer to your right.” He tried to ignore how Danny’s biceps flexed as he cracked eggs. “So, uh, how did you become an interior designer?”
“Well, it turns out there are two ways to become an interior designer.” He found the whisk, started mixing the eggs. “One, you go to design school, then you apprentice with someone for a while, before striking out on your own.”
He finished, turned, and put the pan on the stove—and damn, Steve was having a hard time not staring at how Danny’s pants hugged his ass. “Or two, you graduate from the police academy, promise to serve, honor, and protect—only to wake up one day to find yourself picking chintz out of a line up.”
Steve hadn't seen that one coming. “You were a cop?”
“I was. But it’s not the best career choice if you’re a single dad, so—” He shrugged, poured the eggs in the pan. Waved the spatula at the fridge. “I’m assuming that you like pretty much anything but mushrooms?”
Damnit. Of course Danny would be straight. And have a kid.
“I like mushrooms, I just didn’t buy any.” Steve reminded himself that it didn’t matter. As long as he was under contract, he was straight.
“One omelet, with everything but not-bought-mushrooms, coming up.” Danny poked at the eggs with a spatula, then dumped all the stuff on the cutting board directly into the pan. A minute later, he expertly folded the omelet, slid it onto one of the plates.
Houston and Austin watched the entire procedure with great interest.
“Sorry, this is strictly human food.” Danny divided the omelet, placing the bigger half onto the second plate. He set it in front of Steve. “Eat.”
Steve took a bite—and had to suppress a moan. The omelet was fluffy, and full of cheese and ham and tomato. “This is really good.”
“Thanks.” Danny gave him a smile—a real smile. It made his eyes look even more blue.
“So, uh,” Steve shoved in another bite, “do you cook for all your clients?”
“Nope. Just the ones that are hungover,” Danny’s smile widened as he sat down, “and the ones who don’t have any furniture.”
“I’ve been meaning to replace the couches; I’ve just been busy.”
Danny looked at him for a long moment. “Steve, why did you put your home on a Christmas tour? You haven’t finished moving in.”
You haven’t finished moving in.
The words crashed into him like a rogue wave. He’d owned the place for nine years and yet, it just felt like another hotel room. And honestly, his old condo in Honolulu had felt the same way.
Steve hesitated, then went for the truth. “Because Kono kept bugging me. She works at the—”
“—pet store. Yes, I know Kono. Apparently, a condition of my employment is that I have to buy both Christmas and birthday gifts for my sister’s dog.” He waved his fork in the air. “The way I see it, you have two options. You can withdraw from the tour, and then you can spend another nine years trying to find time to buy a couch. Or—you can run up the white flag and let us do it for you.”
Steve finished the omelet, pushed the plate away. Until thirty minutes ago, being in the same room with an interior designer was absolutely the last thing he wanted to do. But maybe hiring somebody—if that somebody was Danny—wouldn’t be so bad. “The Christmas tour’s in three weeks.”
“Trust me, I know. Lucky for you, most people don’t schedule an overhaul of their house during the holidays—so we can squeeze you in.” Danny waved his fork some more. “If you’re interested, I can take some photos and measurements; get you a quote by Sunday or Monday.”
The thought pushed in that if he hired Danny, everything would be done by December 17th. Sure, he would still have to endure the three day Christmas tour, but—he wouldn’t have to worry about buying couches. Or finding time to deal with his half-finished office.
“Earth to Steve?”
“Would $78,000 be enough?” Steve had overhead someone bragging about dropping $78,000 on redecorating their place at the last party he was at. At the time it had seemed an outrageous amount—but he was so damn sick of living in hotel rooms. “To do everything?”
“That would most definitely cover it, yeah. I’m still going to give you a quote, so you’ll know what you’re paying for.” Danny pulled out his phone, checked something. “Any chance that you are free either Monday or Tuesday? The sooner we pick out some furniture, the better. That way, it can be delivered as soon as the painting is done.”
“Monday’s good.” Steve said it quickly, before he could second-guess himself.
“Great—because three weeks doesn’t give us a lot of time.” Danny finished the last bite of omelet, took another swallow of coffee. “OK, why don’t we start by having you give me the grand tour?”

Info for my Lil' Doey AU
I don't know how much I'll do for this, I honestly wasn't planning on continuing it initially, but I want to now:] I've got at least one more art piece in the works^^
Could anyone tell me what color each kid is? Q-Q I've seen so many people putting Jack as yellow, but I could've sworn he was wearing an orange shirt when he fell in. Until I figure it out in the future I'll make Jack yellow and Matthew orange.
What is this AU?
The lil' Doey/Small Doey AU is one where, with every bit of denial I could put into it, Doey is still alive. Instead of dying, he split into the 3 children used to make him. This leads to the player finding and trying to take care of them all while looking for a way out.
How they meet
The player will have hid from Huggy for about a week I think? Which is a long time, but my excuse is the prototype enjoys the hunt too much and Poppy managed to evade him for long enough that the player wasn't a main focus.
Jack will have been secretly sneaking the player food and such, too afraid to get close.
The player would meet Matthew after being rescued by him from Huggy. He would kind of apologize, telling them they could punish him for what happened if needed, but that the other 2 don't deserve to be out there alone.
They'd meet Jack after putting the clues together he'd been leaving the food around. The poor thing would be incredibly scared, but calm down a lot upon seeing Matthew.
Kissy would find them after a bit of exploring and looking for Kevin, because how could she not be part of this family? Still needs a lot of medical attention, but would be very relieved to see you and not be alone.
Kevin would be found in a very damaged looking room, where it looks like he'd been throwing stuff around in an angry/scared tantrum. Wouldn't want to go with the player, and insist you should want to kill him.
Additional lore/ideas
Matthew would have a hard time accepting the player as a guardian figure, not understanding how to be taken care of rather than take care of. He'd have a hard time being reminded he's still a kid, that he's enough, and did his best.
Jack would be struck with the realization of what he did to his parents. Without the memories of the other two kind of mudding up what happened, he'd fully understand, having a hard time not hating himself for it.
Kevin would try so hard to hate the player and struggle so much with being cared for, appreciated, and not lied to. He would help you if it came down to it, but wouldn't want to admit he's almost comfortable.
Kissy wouldn't really know what to do, because without Poppy, trust would be hard. But I think she'd like feeling part of a family again, and not being relied on so much like she was by Poppy.
I don't know if it's canon but I hc the toys have little to no memories of who they were before, and barely understand who they are now, so the player would probably have to tell them what they know about their lives before:(
As for if they'd make it out or not... uhh, you can decide!:) I'd really only focus on their story while still trying to escape, maybe doodle a concept or two on if they'd made it out as a family. But as for now I've got no idea on if they would or not.

So I watched Natsume Yuujinchou
or "Natsume's Book of Friends" for the English title.
I was pleasantly surprised by this one. It's a real nice slice of life anime. I'm writing this as of watching season 1 and I'm absolutely going to continue watching this one.
Anyway what's it about? Youkai! Easy way to hook me in immediately. If you involve youkai (or similar folklore creatures) in a story I'm immediately interested. Even so, despite my strong bias on the subject matter, I promise it's done very well.
The titular character, Natsume, is a highschooler born with the ability to see and interact with youkai. Growing up while being able to see supernatural phenomena while everyone else can't was rough for him. (If you don't know what youkai are, think of Natsume's situation like being able to see ghosts.) His parent's weren't even sure how to deal with him and sent him off to their relatives instead of raising the child themselves.
Natsume's character is defined by his isolation, but also by the few people he has met that has shown him real kindness. His current family earnestly cares about him, but he hides the fact that he can see youkai from them, as he does with everyone. He has learned that doing so will lead to isolation, but ironically hiding what he can see isolates him from other people as well.
However, Natsume's ability isn't unique to himself. His grandmother could also see youkai, and she's infamous for creating the "Book of Friends." This book contains the names of tons of youkai, and with that book, you can essentially control any youkai whose name is written in it. For a long time Natsume would have to deal with some youkai targeting him, and this was why. Having now learned that he has his grandmother's book, Natsume resolves to return the names of youkai.
Why?
Well watch the show. I could sit here and summarize it, but that doesn't make for a good review. The story....or at least season one of the story....focuses on that theme: isolation. It's not just Natsume, but many of the youkai he encounters that deal with it in their own ways. As a result, each episode ends on a pretty bittersweet note.
Isolation comes in many forms; loss, rejection, protection, selfishness, resentment, and much more. People, and in this case, youkai experience it in many ways, but instead of wallowing in its own despair, this anime focuses heavily dealing with it positively.
I appreciate this anime's willingness to show very sad situations and the characters involved are pretty mature about it. I can imagine this anime helping actual people deal with their own struggles with isolation.
Now, that's not this anime's only theme. It would be fairly shallow if that's all it had to say. You got some action, comedy, and drama here or there. There's some nice character development going on as well. I really like how the show is written overall.
I wouldn't say its at a "masterpiece" quality since there are definitely some jumps in logic that happens sometimes. It definitely makes some poor excuses to set up certain scenes, but I can't complain too much. These issues only show up for a few episodes.
Speaking of the episodes, they're all self-contained. There's a linear narrative of course, but every episodes concludes itself and does not inform what happens in the next episode. This made it strangely hard to binge for me since there isn't a hook to keep you watching. I loved the show, but each episodes ends on such a satisfying note I want to do something else and come back to it later. Weird.
Anyway, Brain's Base was animating this one! Y'know these guys really take on a wide variety of stuff huh? Natsume is an interesting one since it's both very laid back and has some action. I wouldn't say Brain's Base went particularly crazy here, but you can see the effort put into a lot of shots. The animation looks good, but it's humble. Nothin real fancy going on, but the visual direction does a great job at conveying this story.
I have a feeling this is one of the shows Brain's Base is proud of, and it's successful too! This anime goes on for several more seasons and I'm pretty excited to keep going with it.
What's real crazy is that I've never heard anyone talk about this anime before. This is good! Real good! I highly recommend this to anybody, even if you have never seen anime before. It's rare that I get to say that because there's usually some caveat to an anime that makes it hard to recommend to anybody, but there's nothing to worry about here! It's good, great even.
Maybe it just couldn't reach a large western audience. It is dealing with youkai after all. That's a shame, but hey, it doesn't mean you can't watch it now! Give it a try!
#natsume yuujinchou#natsume's book of friends#anime#review#i know there's fans I just havent run into them I guess#it's in that cult classic zone#im probably gonna be real slow with getting to season 2 but I'll definitely get to it!#also as a touhou fan I want to see Natsume interact wuth touhou characters so bad#how have I not run into doujin with that premise?#i have a lot of positive words here. Im really hoping season 2 doesnt fumble whats established here#gosh i wanted to ramble more about the characters but I focused on Natsume

Chapter 4 - Playing with Fire is Such a Cliche // (6.0k words) // 18+
\|/ AO3 - Chapter 4 | << Chapter 3 | Chapter 5 >>
You're a late bloomer when it comes to cursed energy, entering Tokyo Jujutsu High partway through the 4th year on the support student track. Because of this, you get paired with the only combat track sorcerer without a partner for obvious reasons, Ryomen Sukuna. He's had a tragic upbringing as a human that is part curse with dark expectations for how to live his life. However, after meeting you, he slowly starts to see the possibility of a different path with someone he might love.
Content Tags/Warnings Throughout Work: Reader and Sukuna are Jujutsu Sorcerers in a JJK AU, explicit smut, violence/blood/injury, dubious consent, dubious morality, drug and alcohol use, falling in love, angst, comfort, fluff, happy ending
You were starting to fall into a routine in your new home, finally feeling settled and comfortable with your new life. You and Shoko would go to the cafeteria every morning, then walk to your classes together. Some days Geto and Gojo would join you both, but a lot of times they were away on missions.
You and Sukuna would meet up to work on your project some nights along with homework from your shared classes. He was often away as well, so you’d make the most of the time together to divide the workload. This caused his harem of fan girls to give you angry looks at times, in their eyes you were taking him away from their time with him. As if you had any say in this, you two had been partnered up against both your wills.
You had been cleared to go back to your combat sessions a few weeks after your hospital stay. That afternoon you and Shoko make your way to the training grounds after lunch. She is complaining about the chemistry test you had just gotten grades back on.
“I don’t even know why we need to learn this shit if we are just going to be sorcerers,” she groans.
“If you want to be a jujutsu doctor, chemistry is important to know!” you tease back. She pushes you jokingly in response. You both take a seat in the bleachers, continuing to bicker as friends do.
“Alright partner, I'm ready when you are,” you jump as you hear Sukunas deep voice behind you. Where the hell did he come from?
“What’s up stranger,” you respond. To his annoyance you’d been referring to him as that since the day you started the history project. You took great pride in annoying him, pissing him off greatly when you made fun of him instead of matching his angry energy. Seeing him get all butthurt was entertaining and worth it though.
“She just got back to normal, don’t go being a hard ass again,” Shoko growls at him.
“Relax, she’ll be fine,” he waves her off. He leaps off the bleachers and stands beside you as you finish lacing your shoes. He leads the way to the far corner of the training grounds near the forest.
“Can you hold my water bottle for a second, I need to put my hair up,” you say as you walk together. He puts his hand out to take the bottle while you pull your hair up into a messy bun.
“How’d you do on the test?” he breaks the silence.
“Got an 88, I made some silly mistakes.”
“Ha I beat you this time, 97.”
Your competitive side causes you to respond with an annoyed huff, but deep down you aren’t mad. He’s smart so if there’s someone you’d rather lose to, it was him. All the more reason to do better next time.
“Gonna have to try harder next time sweetheart,” he teases you, throwing your bottle back at you unexpectedly.
“Excuse me? Sweetheart?” your voice rises as you throw the bottle back at him, making him leap to the side to avoid the projectile.
“I said what I said,” he turns around and walks backwards, tauntingly looking at you with his hands behind his head. “Also I’m not getting that,” he gestures towards the bottle now laying out in the field.
“God you are so annoying,” you stomp away to retrieve your water.
“You flatter me so much, thinking I’m a god now,” he chuckles.
You look at him and shake your head, but you can’t help emitting a giggle of your own, trying to fight back a smile. You make your way back over to him.
“Let’s sit,” he states as he lowers himself to the grass, patting the ground next to him. You follow suit, adjusting yourself to face him. “What kind of training have you had with cursed energy?”
You take a moment to think. You hadn’t been able to detect or manipulate it until the spring of this year. You realized it when you were walking home from school one day and saw a terrifying creature that it seemed no one else could see. You had freaked out, tearing up a sidewalk in the process of it all. After telling your dad, he showed you how to sense it in the earth and push it through voids, but you didn’t truly know how it all worked.
You explain this to Sukuna who has a very serious expression on his face, absorbing every word of your explanation.
He shifts to rest his elbow on his knee, his face leaning into his palm. “Hmm, I see. Well the first goal I have for you is to incorporate your cursed energy into your martial arts. But to do that, you need to master distributing it throughout your body.”
He holds up his hand in front of you. “Put your hand against mine.”
You press your palm against his, noticing the huge size difference between you and him. His fingers could fold over yours if he wanted. Suddenly you sense heat in his palm and feel it coursing through his fingers, almost like water being sucked through a tube.
“You’re controlling this all on your own?” you ask in awe.
“Yes, I'm taking the source of my energy in my chest and directing it to my hand. Think of it as a pump, pushing the energy through the voids in your body to where you need it. You can use this to enhance physical moves like punching and kicking. It’s the simplest way of using cursed energy for combat,” he explains.
“First I want you to focus on your chest, I want you to become aware of the source, actually recognize how it feels when it flows through your chest and surrounding areas. I can sense where it is in your body, so I’ll help you feel it out.”
You close your eyes and focus your senses inward, trying to feel a glimpse of the heat you felt in Sukuna’s hand. You think you feel it, it reminds you of being in the shower, feeling water run over your skin except it feels like it's flowing under your skin.
“I think I feel it, it feels like water flowing inside of me, like a whirlpool in my chest.”
“Point to me where you feel it.”
You point to a spot just below your breast between your ribs.
“Yep, I can sense it there. Now try to direct it to your stomach area, it should be a combination of pushing it from your chest while pulling it to your stomach. Think of it like a combination of a pump and a siphon.”
You struggle to do this, feeling like the energy is just ricocheting off your ribs and surrounding area. It gives you a feeling like heartburn.
Sukuna can sense your energy beating up your innards. “Stop for a moment, let me demonstrate,” he says shortly as he suddenly pulls his shirt off and tosses it on the ground.
You have been trying to take this seriously, but you are a woman who appreciates a sculpted man at the end of the day, and boy was there one right in front of you. Tattoos emerge from his shoulders and wind over his chest down to his waist, disappearing to what lies below. His muscular chest and rippling abs accentuate them even more, the sharp ridges making your core clench for a second. Chiseled V lines disappear into the waistband of his pants which are dangerously low on his hips.
Oh lord, he’s fucking hot, because of course he is. You can’t deny this as you feel your body flush and swallow deeply, trying to ground yourself.
“As much as I appreciate you eye fucking me right now, I do actually want to finish this lesson,” he laughs smugly. He abruptly reaches for your hand, yanking it towards him and placing it on his chest. You feel light headed, forgetting to breathe momentarily, the world almost dimming around your peripheral.
Pull yourself together dammit. How could you expect to be a decent sorcerer if you are so easily weak in the knees.
You feel his rock hard body below your hand, but you also can sense the swirling heat inside. It feels very controlled though, unlike the chaos you felt within you. Your heart is pounding, can he hear it? Can he feel it through your hand?
“You feel that right?” he snaps you back to reality.
“Ye-yes, I can feel it flowing, counterclockwise?”
“Correct,” he moves your hand to his upper abs now. You are convinced you are going to just die right here, you are going to stop breathing altogether and just forget to replenish the oxygen. You can feel the energy flowing down his body towards his stomach, sensing a sucking motion pulling the energy down while his chest pulses, pushing the heat south.
“Oh I do feel it,” you murmur, concentrating on the feeling. “I think I can do that-“
“What the fuck are you all doing??” a shrieking voice jolts you out of your trance, startling you. “Get your hands off of him you whore.”
You turn to the side and see a girl in all black and black hair storming towards you both. Her face is contorted in anger, the rage emanating off her in waves.
“It’s not what it looks like! I was trying to feel his energy, wait, are you his girlfriend? I’m so sorry!” you stumble over your words, putting your hands at your side and jumping away from Sukuna.
“No Yorozu is absolutely not my girlfriend, just a girl I fuck,” his voice dripping in anger and disgust as he side eyes her.
“Don’t you dare!” Yorozu yells back, “we are exclusive, you said so the other night.”
“Psh, and you believed that?” he responds in a mocking tone.
“What is this about being exclusive with her,” another voice yells from behind you. It’s Kiko, the blond you recognized from your first day. “And why did you have your filthy hands all over him?” She points at you, her eyes shooting daggers.
What the actual fuck, you think to yourself. You did not want to get in the middle of whatever this is.
“I’m just trying to learn about cursed energy, I don’t want anything to do with Sukuna in that way,” you shout at them, trying to make yourself heard.
“Please, I’m already aware you are nothing to him,” Kiko harshly says to you. “Yorozu, quit being a homewrecker.”
“I’ll be over here practicing,” you look at Sukuna, not bothering to wait for a response, your main goal to get the fuck away from this love triangle. You move closer to the trees, intent on practicing channeling the cursed energy through your body, using your hands as a guide similar to what you and Sukuna were doing.
You can’t help but overhear Yorozu, Kiko, and Sukuna arguing. Well it was more so the girls shouting over each other with Sukuna just standing there with his hands in his pockets. What was so special about him that had these girls acting insane over him, especially when he seemed to treat them poorly. Must have out of this world dick game, you laugh to yourself.
You feel yourself succeeding with your practice when you see Sukuna reappear, now alone, and no longer shirtless. He doesn’t say anything, just observes you. You can now get cursed energy to flow controlled into your hands and to your waistline. You are tired though, not realizing how it takes a toll on you both mentally and physically.
“Why don’t you take a break,” he finally breaks the silence. You nod and join him as he sits on the ground, obviously moody now. He fidgets with the grass, twisting his finger around and ripping blades out of the ground.
“You sure do have a way with the ladies,” you tease him. “One girlfriend is hard enough, let alone two.”
He smirks, still staring at the grass, “I’m not committed to anyone, I make that very clear to them and anyone I sleep with.”
Your mind wanders, imagining him sleeping with multiple girls, surely there are more than just these two. “Do you like one more than the other?”
“I don’t like either of them. They fulfill a need and that’s it. If they disappeared tomorrow I wouldn’t care,” he bluntly responds.
You are taken aback by the harshness. You know that’s just how some guys are, but it’s different hearing it said out loud. “Do you think you’ll ever find someone you would want to be committed to?”
“I guess eventually, I have never really considered it. I have a certain standard of what I’d want in a partner, sex is just one facet of that, important but not that high on the list.”
“Mhmm,” you hum in response. “Well what I was going to say was that I am not trying to insert myself into…whatever that all was, I value you as a friend and mentor, and am not trying to negatively affect your love life. But I guess it's not very much reciprocated by you,” you chuckle.
He perks up at your words, “Oh, have I graduated from being a stranger?”
You laugh as you return his gaze. “Yeah I think you have, I’ll get you a cap and gown. Might not fit on your massive ass head though.”
He crinkles his brow in annoyance at your comment as he stands up, holding out his hands as a signal to pull you up.
“Food?”
“Yes please!”
***
You and Sukuna have never done anything that isn’t school related alone together. You recognized and valued his intelligence, so you preferred to do school work together. While chatting happened, it was usually short lived to focus on the task at hand whether it be studying, tag teaming homework assignments, or working on your group projects. Most interactions consisted of him making rude jabs at you while you would mock and tease him much to his annoyance.
There was a sense of comfort though when you were around him. Like you knew what you were getting and you didn’t need to worry about his intentions. His bluntness was refreshing in a way compared to your previous school where someone could get along with you one day but hate you the next, for no apparent reason.
Eating together however was a new activity. It didn’t constrain the conversation, there were no math problems or cursed energy manipulation to hide behind. You two would either converse, or sit in silence. How and what you talked about would be up to you and Sukuna.
You weren’t embarrassed to be seen with him, it was no secret to your friends that you two would work together, and he was your combat partner after all. Shoko would egg you on about becoming his next fangirl, but you would shut it down by saying you were friends with a common goal, and nothing more.
Sukuna and you drop your bags off in your rooms and make your way to the dining hall. You see him texting on his phone, a twinge of annoyance on his face. That’s nothing out of the ordinary for him though. His face might permanently be that way with the consistent scowl he seemed to display.
He speeds through the line, already knowing what he wants to eat while you linger longer to scope out the options.
“I’m going sit, don’t take too long,” he says gruffly as you wave him off. You decide on a chicken salad with a side of fish and rice. You definitely eat a lot more here compared to the past, as using cursed energy wrecks your body. Scanning the room, you spot the top of his pink head and neck tattoos peeking out of his shirt.
Placing your tray across from him, you go to grab a drink. You love the selection of fruit sodas and decide on a peach flavor today.
Sukuna makes a face as you place the drink down, “you would drink that.”
“What does that even mean Sukuna? Hating on random drinks now?”
“Yeah I am, that shit is trash.”
You take a big gulp and let out a dramatic sigh, “well good thing you don’t have to drink it. Just drink your milk like a child.”
“Milk is not childish, brat. It builds strong bones. Maybe you should drink more of it considering you broke your hand on my face.”
“Tch,” you roll your eyes, not giving a response.
“Do you have any siblings?” Sukuna abruptly changes the topic.
“Yes, I have a younger brother and sister. They are elementary school age. What about you?”
“I have a younger brother, different dads though.”
Swallowing a spoonful of rice, his words perk your interest.
“Oh what’s your brother like?” you question, being nosey now. It's the first you’ve ever heard about his personal life.
He points across the room to a table with a black haired boy and brunette girl with a bob. “Those are his friends, not sure where he is now, but he has pink hair like me. He’s a first year student.”
“Oh cool, that must be nice for him to have an older sibling here.”
“Psh he’s too soft. Needs to toughen up if he wants to be a good sorcerer.”
“You can be a good sorcerer and not be an asshole,” you retort.
“It’s better to not have feelings and attachments though. Makes it easier to focus on your goals without stupid distractions.”
“So what are your goals?”
He leans back in his chair and crosses his arms. “Well I do have goals that are personal to myself, but what I can share is that I want to be the strongest, a master in understanding and wielding cursed energy.”
Your eyes widen a little. “Goals personal to you huh? What does that mean?”
“It means you don’t need to know the details,” he snaps back.
His vague answers leave you feeling a little uneasy, but you decide to let it go for now. “Are your parents sorcerers?”
“My dad is. He taught me everything and has been training me since before I can remember.”
“Sounds like a tough childhood. I spent most of my time just playing sports, exploring the neighborhood with friends, typical kid things.”
“Sounds incredibly lame,” He says dryly, looking bored.
“What do you do for fun that doesn’t revolve around jujutsu?”
“Well I do like video games, reading, watching food shows and trying new foods, fucking-“
You practically spit out your drink at his vulgar answer. He looks at you with a hint of amusement in his eye, “what’s wrong? Do you not like it?”
You feel your face flush. You’ve never done more than kissing and feeling up with your ex, and you would not be able to handle having a conversation like this with Sukuna of all people.
“I think it’s fine, just not something I expect to hear in a conversation in the cafeteria. Are you just trying to get a rise out of me?”
“Maybe, it seems to be working. So who are you fucking around here?” He challenges you, placing one elbow on the table and resting his head on it. He seems very engaged in the conversation now, reveling in your discomfort.
Shit what should you say? You know next to nothing about sex, so he’ll know if you’re lying, but you don’t want to give him a reason to ridicule you. Fuck it, you’ll be honest, if he makes fun of you for it, that’s his problem. You are a grown woman and confident in your choices after all.
“Nobody, doesn’t really align with my goals right now,” you meet his gaze, awaiting his response.
His grin cocks to one side, nodding his head slightly, “hmph, interesting.”
You are shocked he doesn’t push the issue, “that’s all you have to say? I was expecting something more on brand from you.”
“I respect your convictions, even if they might not be for me,” he shrugs.
“Well thanks for not roasting me for once,” you laugh.
“I’m sure I’ll make up for it later,” he says with a mischievous look.
You both finish eating and linger for a little longer, engaged in a heated debate on the best super smash bros character.
“Well we will just have to put it to the test and play with each other sometime,” you laugh.
“Sometimes there are tournaments in the dorm common area,” he says.
“Oh so you want to lose in front of a crowd?”
“Please brat, being delusional isn’t a good look.”
***
A week passes and you can now consistently control your cursed energy throughout your body.
“Let’s try some sparring now,” Sukuna announces to you as you sit on the ground. He’s looming over you, his massive figure shielding you from the sun.
“Okay don’t send me to the hospital again,” you retort, only half kidding.
“I’m not going to do that, can you all just let it go?” he snaps, pinching the bridge of his nose.
“No I can’t, you literally broke my ribs and punctured my lung.”
“Quit whining brat, you got over it.”
You stand up now and look at him expectantly, awaiting further instruction. “Ok so how are we doing this?”
“You come at me like you while channeling cursed energy into your blows. I’ll block and dodge only. Oh, and come at me with the intent to kill, it’s the only way you’ll stand a chance,” he grins as he bends his legs, standing on the balls of his feet.
“So confident aren’t you,” you roll your eyes at him. You start to walk away from him, creating some distance.
“Yeah I am, you have no idea what I’m capable of,” he says coldly. You briefly wonder what he means by that, feeling a little intimidated, but you quickly come back to the task at hand. All you can do is trust him to not hurt you again.
You channel cursed energy into your feet, propelling yourself at him at increased speed. You wind up, powering up your fist, and swing at Sukuna. He lifts his hand up, letting his palm absorb the impact. He makes a face, brows lifting in surprise.
“Damn that was a nice one, more like that,” he looks on excitedly, lips curling into a smile.
“Can I use my technique,” you ask as you attempt to swing a kick at his lower legs, your hands planted on the ground as you lash out towards him. He jumps over the move and you quickly deliver a blow to his stomach, catching him off guard.
“Yes, I said to come at me to kill.” He rubs his stomach after the impact from your hit. You felt him move cursed energy to that spot just before impact to block the hit.
You channel energy to your hands and quickly push it through the earth, trying to grab onto his feet. You notice it feels a lot easier now, as it’s similar to pushing the energy through your body.
You quickly continue sending cursed energy through the earth as you sprint at him again. You both spar with hand to hand combat, Sukuna dodging and blocking all hits, not trying to land any on you. You pull the cursed energy towards you that you sent into the earth and lock onto his feet, immobilizing him enough to land a kick on his shins, releasing him from your technique.
He hisses through his teeth at the impact, not able to hide that you did cause a bit of pain. You continue your sparring until you wave the white flag, flopping onto the ground in exhaustion and a slight headache from all the cursed energy manipulation.
Sukuna stands over you, not even breaking a sweat. He drops your water bottle next to you and sits down at your side.
“I think you are ready for missions,” he announces to you.
“Oh I forgot about that,” you stare wide eyed as fear settles over you.
“Yeah, you have to apply what you learn brat. Combat students are supposed to take support students on 2 to 3 missions a month. They are for very low grade curses though, nothing to worry about. Plus I’ll be there.”
“What grade are you?” you question him. You hadn’t actually seen him try very hard yet.
“Grade 1. I’m the strongest, brat, believe me. I won’t let anything happen to you,” you see his eyes soften and you know he means it. You relax a little.
“When do we go?”
“Probably tomorrow,” he says nonchalantly.
“Tomorrow??” you exclaim, “that’s like no notice.”
He chuckles and crosses his arms, “Do you think curses just wait to appear when it’s convenient for you?”
“Shut up no that’s not what I meant,” you huff as he looks at you, amusement in his eyes.
He begins walking away from you back towards the campus buildings. You rush to catch up, falling into step with him.
“What do I need to do to prepare for the mission?”
“You’ll need an overnight bag for sure. Other than that you don’t really need to do anything. We will get driven to the site and we just get out the car and exorcise the curses. Then the driver will take us to a hotel or inn for the night, then we come back the following day.”
“Do we all get separate rooms,” you blush at the idea of sharing a room with Sukuna.
He snickers at your question, “yes we will be in separate rooms. Nothing is stopping you from letting me in yours and vice versa.”
“Ha ha good to know,” you laugh fakely. That doesn’t last long though as you find yourself face first in the dirt after Sukuna trips you.
“Watch your step brat,” he has his hand over his mouth trying to suppress his laughter.
“You are insufferable,” you yell at him. Thankfully you two are the last ones out here, so no embarrassing moments for the whole class to see.
He keeps walking and stops to wait for you against a tall decorative brick wall that lines the walkway back to the campus. Dusk is rapidly approaching with the days getting shorter. Crickets had begun to chirp, signaling the sun going down.
You catch up to him again and find him leaning against the wall. You stop in front of him, waiting for him to keep walking. Instead he licks his thumb and presses it against your cheek. “Got some dirt on you here,” he teases.
“Hmm wonder how that happened,” you try to wince away, but his fingers squeeze your cheek, not letting you move.
He rubs small circles on your cheek. They become gentler and you feel the backs of his fingers graze along your jawbone, trailing along your skin until they stop to rest on the back of your neck. Your breath hitches and goosebumps run down your arms at his touch. Your eyes dart around nervously as his fingertips push down firmly on the back of your neck, beckoning you closer to him. You can smell his cologne mixed with musk, a result of you both sparring for hours. He moves his hands to rest on your hips, guiding you so now your back is now against the wall, the sharp points of the brick digging into your spine.
Your heart is racing now, feeling like it is going to spring out of your chest. Your lips part slightly as you look up at him, he looks ethereal in the dim light. The glow of his eyes give him the look of a predator looking down at his prey.
Sukuna leans one hand against the wall above your shoulder as he lowers himself to your face. His eyes are half lidded and their usual blazing red begins to darken. His other hand comes to rest on your hip, pulling your body flush with his.
His face hovers in front of yours and it feels like an eternity. You want to close the gap between you, but you hesitate as nervousness sets in. Your eyes look down at his lips, then back up to his gaze. They are gorgeous, morphing into a deep red like hot coals as the tension intensifies.
Fuck it, you finally decide. You loosen your jaw and close the distance between you, your lips landing on his. Your mouth doesn’t move at first, body practically in shock at what you just did. The world is suspended temporarily as you dissociate from yourself, a dizzy feeling starting to consume you. You slowly start to regain feeling in your body, noticing his soft lips, the harsh grip on your hips, and the soft brush of his nose against yours. His lips are softer than you expected given his rough demeanor.
Sukuna’s tongue runs along your bottom lip, which causes you to part yours in surprise. He takes this opportunity to slip his tongue between your lips, meeting yours as he groans into your mouth. Your noses brush against each other clumsily as you figure out each other's rhythm.
He nibbles at your lip, coaxing your tongue back into his mouth. You wrap your arms around his neck for support, threading your fingers through his fluffy hair. He tilts his head, allowing you to probe deeper into his mouth, exploring the inside of his cheek as he rolls his tongue against yours. He hums, lowering his hands to grip your ass, pushing his body against yours until you are pinned against the wall. You can hear nothing but the symphony of crickets in the twilight and the wet sounds of his lips on yours.
You break the kiss, desperate for air, making a popping sound as your lips disconnect from his. Your breaths come in gasps as you try to steady your breathing again, coming back down from your high. He presses his forehead against yours, eagerly awaiting your lips on his again.
“You kissed me,” you say in a bewildered voice. You almost can’t believe it. It’s something you truly never thought would happen, even though you have fantasized about doing worse with him before.
He smirks at you with lidded eyes, his voice a low rumble, “technically you kissed me brat.”
“Whatever.” You attack his lips again with more force than the last. He matches your energy with a hunger you weren’t expecting, forcing himself back into your mouth, finding the insides of your teeth and sucking your tongue, eliciting a sharp moan from you. You push your hands beneath his shirt, hands running along his abs. The ridges and dips of his muscles are apparent, squeezing them with your nails as you grasp onto him, attempting to ground yourself.
You can feel him hard against you, throbbing with your every moan he captures in his mouth, clearly enjoying this just as much as you. He pulls back this time, staring deeply into your eyes. His crimson gaze is intense with hunger, almost like he could devour you on the spot. You blush profusely, and emit an awkward giggle.
“Did you like that?” Sukuna’s husky voice asks as he tries to not so discreetly adjust himself in his pants.
“Mhmm yes, you’re a good kisser,” you stumble over your words. Why would you say he’s a good kisser? You cringe realizing your brain short circuited in its recovery from the intimate moment.
“Hmph,” he hums, feeling smug. You both tidy up your clothes and hair, attempting to hide the evidence of the heated make out session you had just partaken in.
He leads you back to the dorms in silence, both of you not daring to speak as he walks you to your room. “I’ll text you the info for the mission either tonight or tomorrow morning.”
“Ok sounds good,” you unlock your door and push it open. You look back at him, your eyes locking with his longing gaze, “good night Sukuna.”
He swallows hard as he stares back at you, his mouth forming a tight line, “night.”
You close the door as he walks away, the mirror on the wall revealing a massive grin plastered on your face. He’s an asshole. A hot asshole who wanted his tongue down your throat. Probably a one time thing, but then again, playing with fire is such a cliche when you’re willing to get burned.
Sukuna POV
I make a beeline back to my room, trying to hide the bulge in my pants I’d failed miserably at subduing. My pants are so damn uncomfortable, constricting my cock which is desperate to be freed. I fumble for my keys and finally unlock the door, slamming it behind me. I know if I don’t take care of this I won’t be able to focus the rest of the evening.
Entering the bathroom, I turn the shower on to warm up the water and strip my clothes off. My hand immediately palms the thick head of my cock and as I groan with relief at the friction I was so desperate for. What am I even doing? So gone off of a kiss and nothing more.
It was so hard to stop with you earlier, I wanted to take you against that wall and fuck you senseless. I step into the shower and lean against the wall, water running in rivulets over the contours of my muscles. Stroking my full length now, my mind goes back to you and that wall. Pre cum spills from my thick tip, giving me extra slick to pump my shaft. The image of holding you up, legs locked around my waist as I drill into you, stuttering my name between moans has my dick throbbing as I imagine burying it inside you again and again.
My grip tightens around my shaft, pumping faster now as you shatter beneath me, your walls gripping me so snugly. I lean my head back against the shower wall, my hand sliding up and down my hardened length with urgency as I feel the orgasm looming. The final image of you crying my name as I fuck you through your climax pushes me over the edge. I groan loudly, eyes shut tight and body tensing up as spurts of cum begin to coat the wall of the shower.
As the waves of pleasure finally cease, I open my eyes and sink to the floor, not caring that the water is now pelting me in the face. Allowing myself a few minutes to come back to earth, I can’t recall the last time I came so hard from jerking off. Finally I stand back up and quickly finish washing my hair and body.
I stride across the room to my computer to check mission assignments. As a grade 1 sorcerer, I check the website multiple times a day to see if anything perks my interest. This time though, I filter by low grade assignments for your first mission.
An abandoned home in a neighborhood 3 hours away is reportedly haunted according to kids breaking in. Grade 4 max. Sounds perfect for you. I mark it taken and type both of our names in, noting it as support training. Looks like the driver will pick up at 9 AM tomorrow.
Me: we leave at 9AM tomorrow. Plan to eat before we leave. I’ll meet you out front beforehand.
You: Okay sounds good. Anything specific to pack?
Me: a change of clothes for afterwards is a good idea, fighting curses can be messy.
You: got it. Well cya tomorrow, have a good night!
I close the computer and flop onto the bed, a twinge of excitement coming over me. I honestly can’t remember the last time I kissed someone and that was it, but for some reason I can’t get it out of my head now. I get back up and fish out the half open bottle of whiskey from under my bed. Hopefully that can help calm me down and get some rest.

BRIAN MOSER & ANGEL! READER who are wall-to-wall neighbors in their building. they’ve never spoken to one another longer than 5 minutes and only exchanged a couple sweet smiles when crossing paths going to their apartments. BRIAN MOSER who doesn’t let the sweet woman go unnoticed when she’s near. noting that she always gives him the most genuine farewells he’s heard from a stranger and how soft her features are before seemly forgetting about her after entering his apartment. while . . ANGEL! READER thinks “on my god, he’s a cutie” every time he sees him. adores how his hair and eyes are nearly the same deep brown and never misses an opportunity to send a short wave his way.
BRIAN MOSER & ANGEL! READER who only began to really speak to one another because brian continuously makes a lot of noise in his apartment interpreting her sleep most nights. and every time because she’s too sweet to be upset, she leads with a gentle “sorry to interrupt” and “know m’ bothering you again but . .” when asking him about turning it down a bit.
he fakes his sincerity and doesn’t bother to change his actions the first couple times she asked, keeping in mind she never really asks exactly what he’s doing unlike all the other me who demand answers. until one night she come to his door with sleepy features and soft pout. “m’ sorry to bother you again but could you just stop for a little bit? so i can at least get into the first stage then you can continue, i swear.” he enjoys her. how she negotiates instead of out right demanding him. how she assumes the best of him, believes he’ll listen if she asks nicely enough. and for the first time, he actually to quiet down.
when she comes to thank him the next morning with full eyes and asking his name he found himself giving her his real one, “brian but call me rudy” while holding out his hand. she squints at him unsure as she take his hand, “where did rudy come from?” unknown to her, he lies with a soft smile on his face, “nickname from when i was a kid.” but she believes it.
BRIAN MOSER & ANGEL! READER who’s relationship dynamic is the perfect twist of epic dreams and nightmares. the epic dreams being full of soft, deep kisses like her making him feel as though he doesn’t have to fake who he is, him giving her sweet presents with small, red, bows tied on each one or her actual gaining the nickname angel by him when he’s teasing her about something. his voice soft and low as he looks at her with dark, dreamy eyes, “come on, angel.”
while the nightmares run deep, they hold their relationship together the most because his urges prompt him to lie, he doesn’t tell her to hide them but to keep her exactly where he wants her: in his arms. when the moon is full, he brings women to his apartment and looks at them as though they’re his world until the door is shut and they have their guard down. if they get too loud when he’s strangling them he covers their mouths and whispers, “sh sh. don’t want to wake her”. keeping her in mind even in the midst of his ugres. if she comes over and hears or sees something he’s quick to make up an excuse that she’s quick to believe because he hasn’t made her believe other wise. “you promise?” he gives both her eyes the perfect amount of affection, shifting from one to the other as he swears, “promise, angel.”

poly!yellowjackets x fem!reader minors DNI, all characters are 18 y.o
TW: smut, gangbang extra tags: porn with plot, praising, bodyworship, sharing is caring, fingering (r! receiving), oral (r! receiving), oral (r! giving), little bit of spanking word count: 5.1k not proofread english is not writer's first language! you've always been so nice and sweet to Yellowjackets, the one and only soccer team in your school, Wiskayok High. But you also were naive and innocent enough to constantly overlook the fact that every single girl on the team wanted your attention. And when, the last day before their nationals, they finally decided to make things clear between you and them.
When Coach Martinez first introduced you to the girls, they weren't too impressed. Average hair, average eyes, average height. Nothing special or anything to look at more than usual. You weren't even, roughly speaking, a full-fledged part of the team. At least that's what Taissa said. She was always like that - confident and sure of her opinions, even if they were somewhat offensive.
But you didn't mind, and even agreed. You were just an equipment manager, and you only became one because your mother and father were very close with Coach Martinez and asked him to find you a place out of old friendship. Of course, the coach made up a different story for everyone about how you came to be on the team - but every time you remembered the truth of your presence here, you wondered if you had the right to wear your signature yellow and blue bomber jacket. You felt ashamed, even though you didn't act like someone who got in because they got a pass. You were responsible, punctual, but you didn’t forget about empathy and responsiveness when communicating with girls. Over time, you began to be noticed by more than just Misty Quigley, who shared the same position with you.
Misty Quigley herself wasn’t too bad. Well, she was… weird. But you decided that everyone had their own cockroaches in their heads and she was just trying to make friends this way.
"You know, if we ever run out of food, I’ve always wondered what human flesh tastes like. I mean, they say it’s like pork, right? Maybe we should start taking notes just in case." Misty once said while you were cleaning up the cones after practice. You looked at her with wide eyes, full of confusion.
"Excuse me? Misty, this is a little weird…" You awkwardly continued to do your job, while Misty burned a hole in you with her gaze. Misty tilts her head slightly, her expression shifting from playful to earnest.
"Oh, come on! I was just joking… mostly. But think about it—survival is all about adapting, right? It’s just a thought experiment! Besides, we’ve got to keep our spirits up somehow. Want to talk about your favorite horror movie instead? I promise I won’t suggest cannibalism this time!”
But Misty didn’t always say such creepy things. She could talk about history, especially about Roman emperors, about her experience in first aid and medicine in general, about her interests, of which there were quite a few, but no one except you, apparently, wanted to listen to her. You didn’t understand the reasons and were patient with her. Misty immediately began to appreciate this - she did not throw away potential loved ones. Then Natalie Scatorccio appeared. Natalie did not have much experience with love, including the manifestation of care towards her. You didn't know anything about her, except that she lived in a van and was an extremely good and promising soccer player. But the more Misty shared the good news about your "endless love and care", trying to brag that she had such a tasty morsel and not the rest of the team, Nat couldn't help but become interested in you. People who lack love often don't quite realize how much they subconsciously want to find it.
She caught you after practice once and started talking to you. Nat herself didn't understand why she wanted to come back to you more and more every day - was it your manner of speech or how brightly you smiled at her after silly stories? She wanted to blush under your gentle gaze, and her heart beat strangely when you waved at her after she made a good pass to the other team members. But of course it wasn't always like that. The more attached she became to you, the more she focused on looking into your unexpectedly deep eyes, rather than at the ball.
"Natalie, don't you want to start playing properly? What are you constantly distracted by?" Lottie narrows her eyes when Natalie refuses to pass the ball to her and tries to dribble the ball to the goal herself, but hits the wall.
"Forget it, Lots. I'm just having a bad day." Natalie waved it off. It was odd that for someone having a bad day, she was smiling so stubbornly and persistently in the wrong direction. Lottie couldn't help but realize that she was looking at you. Perhaps you needed to have a heart-to-heart talk.
So, Charlotte Matthews quickly became next.
After practice, she caught you doing your job as you were supposed to, and called you out on it. She was annoyed, but more curious about your relationship with Natalie. You were blushing and apologetic, and it was hard to deny that you weren't to blame for Nat's deteriorating performance.
And then Lottie discovered that your shy face was extremely hard to get out of her head. Inadvertently, you began to talk after and before practice, Lottie sharing some details about upcoming parties at her house and inviting you. You, of course, refused. Your parents expected you to be decent, and Lottie didn't like rejection and didn't know what rejection was, being a rich girl. So she made it her goal to get you at least once. Or twice. So trying to get under your skin, subtly courting you, and trying to get through to your difficult parents was already routine. Including giving expensive gifts.
"Tai, have you seen the new hair clip in Y/N's hair? Those things cost a lot of money, I tell you, I saw it in the window of that expensive jewelry store." Vanessa was amazed at the new accessory you now had.
"I didn't really pay attention to it, to be honest. What do you… mean? Do you want one like that? I didn't think it was your style." Taissa chuckled, and Van rolled her eyes.
"Haha, very funny, but that's not what I mean… Hey, Lottie! Does Y/N have a rich mommy and daddy like yours?"
Lottie, passing by, chuckled, clearly filled with pride. "Not really. That was my gift. Y/N is very nice, you know. You shouldn't have doubted her, Taissa."
Then Taissa Turner and Vanessa Palmer appeared. They were already in a relationship and were amazed to see how quickly you changed the team's attitude for the better. And yet, from the very beginning, you were a black sheep for Taissa. Van, however, did not treat you with great disdain. She preferred to give people a chance to prove themselves first, and only then draw her own conclusions. However, they quickly liked you. Taissa was surprised that you had previously attended law and jurisprudence classes, and these topics interested her greatly. Van was pleasantly pleased with your taste in films and comics. You complemented their couple with something that they could not complement each other with on their own, after all, no relationship can simply be perfect. It was a matter of time before they both wanted your attention more than was possible. Van often invited you to her home to read or watch something, and Taissa loved to discuss social issues with you. You turned out to be more than either of them could have thought.
"Tai, I'm sorry, but I've already taken up Y/N's time for the evening with myself." Van smiled tenderly at Taissa.
Taissa raised an eyebrow in surprise, seemingly hoping for something. "Damn. How did you manage to come to an agreement with her faster than me? Maybe you'll take me with you?" she said with awkward hope. "Of course, I don't understand a damn thing about your conversations, but still…"
"No way, babe. You'll steal her attention again." Van shook her head.
"Why do I keep hearing everyone talking about Y/N from every corner of the room?" Jackie folded her arms in displeasure as she found herself next to the couple. "I understand that she's new and all that… but what's so unique about her? I swear, we won't get to nationals like this."
Jackie Taylor was annoyed by your popularity within the Yellowjackets. She could see the effect you had on the girls - they were going crazy trying to get a piece of you. She wasn't interested in you at all, but she had a feeling that if she didn't get a little bit closer, they would dethrone her and make you the team captain and even make you their mascot. She had to do something, and fast.
One day, Jackie stayed with you after practice, kindly offering to help you clean up the equipment. When you both walked into the warehouse, she almost pinned you against the wall, demanding answers to her questions.
"Y/N, I can see something's going on. I understand that you want to be friends with everyone, sure, but… we're trying really hard to get to nationals. And you're being way too… outgoing, you know? You need to stop. For the good of our team, as captain, I'm asking you to…"
"Your hair looks great today. Even after playing so hard." You blurted out, unable to contain your genuine respect. "Oh. Sorry. Keep going."
Jackie froze, her combative attitude seeming to completely falter. "You… you think so? Finally, someone sees how much I work on this hair, trying to get it just right every morning! I use powder and hairspray literally all the time, and no one has even bothered to compliment me… until you, of course."
Jackie took pity on you after that. Not when you were willing to spend hours shopping for clothes with her, stealing your clothes and trying on what she told you to try on, making you her model. No one had ever shown such steely restraint with Jackie Taylor, and every time she put on your makeup, it was so hard for her to resist the pounding of her heart and the strange desire to cover your lips with hers. But there was a catch to being with Jackie. The amount of time you spent together didn't sit well with Shauna Shipman. She was the only one who showed no interest in you at all. She didn't care about you, and that was surprising. She never, not once, approached you. You doubted she even knew your name, although considering Jackie told her everything, your name was the only thing she knew about you.
And the fact that you were a real suck-up. That's what she called you when she decided to have it out with you.
"What do you have with Jackie? Do you think I can't see how you're trying to pull the wool over her and everyone else's eyes?" Shauna narrows her eyes, looming over you. "What is it about you? Are you such a good suck-up?"
You felt hurt, but even more so, you felt a seething injustice. "I don't know what you're talking about, Shauna, I was just trying to be friends with everyone. It's not my fault they saw something in me."
Shauna snorted, unsure of what to do with you. "Well. Fine. Just stay away from Jackie, okay? And you'll be fine." Shauna had already turned away from you, about to leave. She adjusted her backpack, but a book fell out. You quickly picked it up.
"You dropped…" You looked at the cover, sighing in surprise. "Pride and Prejudice? That's my favorite book!" You exclaimed, surprising Shauna. She rolled her eyes, simply taking it from you, pretending not to care, but in reality, she was even a little impressed. You were left standing in the hallway, not quite sure what you did wrong.
And then you were surprised when Shauna came to you wanting to discuss the book, as if nothing had happened. Perhaps she was so eager to discuss her interests with someone that she decided to choose the worst option of all - you (Jackie, as expected, did not like reading books at all). You liked to read in your spare time, and Shauna was pleased that you had read a lot of female writers from the 18th and 19th centuries. She sometimes shared her thoughts on them with you, but the main thing was that at one point she made you a playlist of songs named after you. You were flattered and too busy enjoying the gift to notice how much Shauna blushed as she tried to hold your hand.
You didn't even know it would be like this. It seemed like almost all the girls on the team were literally tearing you apart. You'd never received so many gifts, compliments, and, it seemed, hints? Of course, you were pleased. You were a girl, after all. And you suddenly had little free time. Sometimes you spent time with two or even three girls at once a day. Of course, sometimes this led to conflicts between them, but they never dragged you into it. You were untouchable.
But you didn't expect that they would all decide to fix it in one day.
Despite everything, training for Nationals continued. Luckily, the Yellow Jackets team still managed to get their game together and win the filtration game that determined their participation in the competition. Everyone, of course, was incredibly happy. As were you for your favorite team.
There was just one thing. Your parents forbade you to fly with them. You begged as much as you could, but they were adamant. They wanted you to stay home and use your free time from your team to good use, studying and preparing for college. You shed so many tears in front of them, almost begging, but nothing worked. Sometimes you wanted to curse your parents.
Tomorrow, everyone was supposed to fly to Nationals. You entered the locker room, terribly dejected. You were immediately noticed, and the girls were insanely worried. Lately, all of them had been very attentive to you.
"You don't look well, Y/N," Natalie said, her smile from earlier quickly fading.
"Are you okay? Do you have a headache? Maybe a stomach ache?" Misty jumped up to you as if your life depended on it.
"Get away from her, Misty. Y/N might need some space." Vanessa shook her head, and was just as concerned about you.
"I-it's okay…" you sniffed. "It's just… I couldn't convince them. I did everything I could, I begged as hard as I could, and they still refused me. You… you'll have to celebrate your victory at the nationals without me." your eyes sadly looked around at everyone. The shared sadness touched every girl present.
"Y/N… I'm so sorry." Lottie took your hands in hers, looking at you sadly, but Jackie quickly jumped up to her.
"How so? Do they not care at all that you want to fly with us?" she snorts, angry at your family. Being spoiled by her own parents, she did not understand this attitude, especially towards you.
"At least you will be here when we return." Taissa tried to find the positives, although she was disappointed too.
"It does not make much sense, she will not be able to share the joy of us taking the first place in the moment." Shauna said, shaking her head. There was silence between all of you. You were so upset that you didn't even notice how all the girls were looking at each other meaningfully and nodding silently. Suddenly Lottie ran a gentle hand down your cheek, took your chin.
"Don't be so upset, Y/N," Lottie said softly, looking soothingly into your eyes. "You know… in all this time that you've been part of our team, we've grown attached to you. You've always been so kind to us. I think we can come to an agreement and find a way to thank you properly."
You were very embarrassed, and suddenly you felt a little awkward. "I was just being myself, you don't have to do anything for me." You, of course, felt pleased. But you were surprised when you felt hands behind you, and out of the corner of your eye you could see blonde strands of hair, and then you heard the familiar voice of Nat, who decided to come up to you from behind.
"Don't be such a shy princess. Why don't you let us comfort you?" she almost purrs in your ear, sending shivers down your spine. It felt… oddly pleasant, like a wave of excitement had washed over you.
"I, um… I don't know… how are you going to do that?" you ask. You can already see and feel Misty wrap her arms around your right hand, stroking it, looking at you in awe.
"You see, Y/N, you have some kind of influence over all of us." Lottie continues. Jackie glares at Matthews, apparently annoyed that Lottie is in charge. While she's busy burning a jealous hole in someone else's body, Shauna approaches you, her hands stroking your neck, and you shiver, vaguely aware of where this is all heading.
"We feel an irresistible… attraction to you. It's hard for us to share you between us. Haven't you noticed how hard we try to please you?" Lottie asks, genuinely concerned. "And you still wouldn't give in to any of us. We tried to figure out what you wanted, but we failed every time. So we thought you'd have to try each one before you figured out which one of us you wanted to be with."
Your brain was already running out, and now that Van's hand was stubbornly touching your thigh, and Taissa was holding your waist, whispering something in your ear, you completely stopped thinking. You were surrounded by a crowd of girls with whom you spent all your free time so happily, and they were trying to get you all the time. Was it all of them? Each of them wanted you to be their girlfriend? These thoughts left you shocked and you didn't even know how close or far from the truth it was. You, of course, dreamed about them. About each of them at least once, though about some more than others. But for you it was not serious, you did nothing! Did they really want it that much?
You yourself do not notice how you let out a quiet sigh when Shauna kisses your neck. She does it roughly, as if she is having difficulty containing the desire that is accumulating in her. Shauna is silent, examining, analyzing and suppressing in herself, and then explodes like a time bomb. And now she wants to explode at any moment.
Misty's hand undoes the button of your pants in irritation, and Van and Taissa pull them down. You are brought back to reality, and you feel panicked. You were definitely not prepared for being undressed.
"W-wait, there's no need to go anywhere-" you break off with a groan. Nat, still standing and supporting you from behind, bites your ear, licks it, makes your sensitive earlobe wet. You sigh at the newness of this strange, disorienting sensation.
"Don't worry, sweet thing. Everything is going to be just fine." Natalie purrs, and you can't tell if she's stoned or not. Your pants are thrown to the floor. And then your panties. You are naked for all the girls, and they are looking at you so mesmerized, like this is the best thing they've ever seen in their lives. Even Jackie and Lottie, standing behind you, are watching you in awe.
This time, Van is first. Her tongue touches your already wet cunt, and she circles it, tasting you. You moan, and Natalie tugs your hair a little, exposing more of your neck. Taissa gives you a couple of loud slaps on your ass, interested in seeing your reaction. You shudder and your hips jerk, because you like it. Misty's hand goes under your shirt and gropes your breasts, pulling your nipples almost painfully, while Shauna leaves wet marks on your collarbone from her mouth, wanting to leave marks on you that will definitely last until their collective return from Nationals.
You are so turned on, and you feel stimulation from all sides. Your hand wants to reach for Van's red head, to press it harder, but Nat, watching you like a hawk, pulls you back.
"Let her do it herself." She whispers in your ear. You nod frantically, it's best not to argue with them. A few more movements of Van on your clit, her skillful tongue, which had probably done the same with Taisa before, could easily bring you to orgasm. You moaned more actively, your chest moved a hundred times more intensely, and then she pulled away.
"She's ready, Lottie." Van said, wiping her mouth. It was hard for you to understand what was happening, and you just whined, saddened that you were not allowed to come. For a moment, everyone broke away from you. Everyone was listening to Lottie.
"We'll help you after you help us, Y/N," Lottie says with a smile that sounds like she's some kind of prophet. "We've been waiting so long to get your attention. We think we deserve to come first. But I promise you won't regret it."
You nodded at her, mesmerized, but you felt like this wasn't quite the Lottie you knew. She was so mysterious, and you couldn't tell what was on her mind.
"Get away from her, all of you." Lottie commanded. "And you, Y/N, sit on your knees, please. Put something down so it won't hurt her to sit on the floor."
Van and Nat dutifully laid out their own jackets so your knees wouldn't hurt from what you were about to do. It was a pleasant moment of care. You obediently settled down on your knees in front of Lottie. You were literally being eaten with their eyes, and you were ready for what was to happen.
Lottie was already reaching for her shorts, but Jackie spoke up. "Sorry, Lottie… but I'll be the first." She said, raising her chin high. Jackie's voice was filled with nervous confidence, and she tried to withstand Lottie's and the other girls' piercing gaze. "I'm the captain of our team, and I want to be the first one to do this. What made you think you could lead?"
Lottie was silent, and you couldn't even understand what she was thinking right now. Then she nodded, and her voice was cold. "Okay. Be the first. But don't ruin it too soon."
You didn't understand the meaning of the words, but Jackie frantically replaced Lottie, pulled down her shorts, and the taste of her cunt quickly imprinted on your tongue. You didn't know what Jackie really wanted to achieve by this - to let you fuck her first or she just felt depressed because of how Lottie quickly took control and everyone, even Shauna, was ready to obey her. In any case, you didn't mind. You devotedly licked her pussy and tried to watch Jackie's reaction, just to please her. In your fantasies, you tried many times to make Jackie as good as you could. In your mind, Jackie was not the type to give - she liked to receive more, and if she had to be on top in your fantasies, she was so gentle and timid, afraid to make an extra move, that it only excited you more. But here she was — trying to have your whole mouth, like she had been fantasizing about it for so long that you were almost dizzy with the realization. Your drool and her juices were running down her thighs while she moaned, and the others were watching, some daring to stick their hands down their own shorts. A couple of minutes passed and Jackie came convulsively, sitting down on the bench. Now she wouldn’t object. She had no strength.
Shauna was next. She was never patient, not with what she liked - her hand grabbed your hair (no one protested, everyone decided she deserved it for scoring the final goal during the nationals qualifiers) and she pulled herself roughly-gently towards her vagina. Your eyes rolled back and you almost got lost in her thick dark pubic hair, but fuck, she was delicious and you were ready to continue as long as it took. You even forgot how to breathe sometimes - Shauna was a little rough, muttering something harshly under her breath and moaning, repeating your sweet name. She came quickly and took a step to the side, pulling up her shorts and retreating to the bathroom, apparently to rethink something.
Then there was Taissa… and Van. They were both allowed near you at the same time. You were dumbfounded, not knowing how to cope with taming two pussies at the same time, but you didn't even have time to wipe the saliva and cum from your mouth, as the red vagina was in your mouth. You had to change one pussy to the other every 15-20 seconds, trying to lick both like never before. You were forbidden to use your hands, but they both frantically encouraged you as best they could, while your tongue circled their clits, and the dirty noise filled the locker room, already filled with heat and languid sighs.
"You're holding up great, Y/N… Come on, help Van a little…" Taissa whispered, tearing you away from her pussy, because you stubbornly did not want to stop. However, upon hearing her order, you quickly set to work on Van, drawing a sigh of excitement from her, and ten seconds later, an orgasm. Taissa followed.
Then there was Nat. You licked your lips, ready to receive her. You were surprised that her pussy was shaved, maybe she was getting ready and wanted to please you? This thought caused a sweet warmth in you. And Nat's pussy tasted sweet too. You sucked on her clit, wanting to please her in a way that no guy had ever done. Natalie moaned surprisingly softly, and it excited you so much that there was almost no dry spot left in your panties. She let you use your hands, and you held her by the hips, because she was shaking while your wet tongue caressed her tender folds, and the hot air from her nose came straight to her pubis. Needless to say, Nat came quickly, but for some time she did not want to leave your mouth? Misty didn't even ask your permission. Her head was wrapped around yours, her fingers tangled in your soft hair, and she was holding you to her bushy pussy like she was dying without it. You were taken aback, but that didn't stop you from wanting to please her, even if her actions were met with disapproval from the other girls. No one wanted to be played with more roughly than the rest. You licked her, trying to please her as much as possible - Misty looked like she was not easy to please, but she was whispering so sweetly in your ear, praise and advice, that your arousal literally flowed out of your panties.
"Yes, t-that's it, Y/N… That's just perfect, oh, you're so beautiful. You're just an angel, a little perfection." She muttered selflessly, her glasses falling to the tip of her nose as she came loudly in your mouth.
You were exhausted, but Lottie was still there. She was the last one. You looked up at her, tired, sluggish, and excited. She gave you a quick smile, but there was undisguised triumph in her eyes. She had you after all. Did we mention that Lottie hated rejection and not getting what she wanted?
Lottie lifted your chin, gently stroked your hair and tidied it up, wiped the tears of pleasure from your eyelashes. She let you dive into her pussy yourself, start licking it yourself, as if you were in some kind of licking contest and were going to take first place there. She let you keep glancing at her, watching every movement of her moaning mouth and trembling hands, just to please her. Your heart was beating so fast and it was so hot and you wanted to please her so much, plunging your sweet tongue into her pussy over and over again, that you had a hard time holding on. Lottie took the longest, savoring every second and apparently holding herself back. Eventually she pulled your head away from her, pressed her pussy to your forehead and came, covering you even more with her wetness. You were all for it.
"You did well, Y/N. You love us so much, you were ready for everyone." Lottie said tiredly. She nodded to the girls, and they sat around you. "Now you've earned a reward, huh?" You nodded vigorously, needing release. You were so wet, and almost whining with excitement. Your head ended up in Shauna's lap, and Nat, Misty and Jackie quickly found themselves at your feet. Misty nibbled on your calves and thighs, often not hesitating to do it quickly and hard, while Jackie, on the contrary, licked them like a kitten, gently nipping at the sensitive skin. This crazy contrast made you breathe quickly and roll your eyes, and all for the sake of Shauna watching this cute picture. Nat touched your pussy with her tongue, her two fingers slid inside your wet cunt - after such a long abstinence, taking two fingers at once was not at all difficult. You moaned, letting them all work on you while the others watched. Natalie's tongue was trying so hard to please you, playfully sucking and pulling on your clit, playing with your labia and purposely quickly driving her fingers into you, wanting to bring you to the peak and play on you like guitar strings.
"We love you, Y/N, such a gift for us." Jackie purrs, watching Natalie fuck your helpless pussy.
"You're the best!" Misty agrees with a smile, biting you and licking it slobberily.
"All that's left is to cum." Shauna says calmly, not hiding her smirk, constantly keeping her eyes on herself. "Come on. Nat's mouth is waiting for it."
As if on cue, you spill into Natalie's mouth with a loud moan. Everyone exhales relaxedly, and Natalie cleans your pussy with her tongue. "You're just sweet, princess." She smirks at her own abilities.
You let yourself sink into the girls' arms, catching your breath. You don't know yet that later they'll help you get dressed, each of them will kiss you on the lips, and you'll tell them to talk about it after Nationals. In the end, you still can't seem to choose one. You love them all, and you're waiting for them to return to Wiskayok, safe and sound, with victory in hand.

A Star That’s Out of Reach (Chapter 16)
[Previous] - [x]
[Masterlist]
I don’t have much to say this time either, but I hope you enjoy the back to back posts! I just didn’t really want to leave y’all in suspense.
— x —
Amy stared down at the slice of cake sat in front of her, mindlessly poking it with her fork. Vanilla looked to Blaze, who shrugged slightly.
“Amy dear,” Vanilla spoke up, breaking the silence. “Is everything alright? It’s not like you to be so quiet and gloomy.”
Amy swiftly up from her plate in surprise, forcing a smile. “S-Sorry! I’m fine, don’t worry.” She took a swift bite of the cake, then her face dropped again. Blaze glanced at Vanilla, then stood up.
“Cream, why don’t we go play in your room for a bit?” She suggested, much to Cream’s glee. She latter hurried off of her chair and out the room, followed close behind by Blaze. She stopped at the door for a moment and nodded at Vanilla, entrusting Amy to her. Vanilla gently placed a hand atop Amy’s
“Why don’t you tell me what’s worrying you so much?” Vanilla suggested reassuringly. Amy looked at her with a nervous expression, but forced another smile anyway. She failed to maintain it for long, instead putting her head in hands and crying quietly, not wishing to alert Blaze or Cream in the other room. Vanilla moved to the seat next to her and pulled her into a tender hug, softly rubbing her back. “Oh sweetheart, I’m sorry.” Amy continued to cry for a minute or so, before pulling away and composing herself.
“I just don’t know what to do,” she finally spoke, still rubbing her eyes. “I have been so selfishly happy and yet I couldn’t do anything for him.” Vanilla became confused at her comment, but she could tell whoever Amy was talking about was dear to her and that something specific had happened to cause this upset. She also knew that Amy had a tendency to give too much of herself, so her comment about being selfish made little sense to her, though she chose not to comment on it at this time. Vanilla gently took Amy’s hands in hers, holding them as she looked at Amy.
“Sweetie, none of us are perfect,” Vanilla commented softly. “If this dear friend of yours expects that, then they aren’t worthy of your love. But we can’t assume the thoughts and feelings of others. Have you spoken to your friend about what happened?”
Amy shook her head gently. “I’m scared that he’ll be disappointed in me. Or even if I haven’t offended him, what if he doesn’t want to see me because the sight of me makes him sad?”
Vanilla smiled gently, squeezing Amy’s hands slightly. “There’s a lot of possibilities, dear. But there’s only one truth. And until you talk to your friend, you’ll be stuck in a world of uncertainties.”
Amy stared down at their hands, then sighed and spoke again. “Maybe it’s best if we break up.” Though Vanilla didn’t know who Amy was speaking about, she was a little surprised to hear that she was in fact dating this unidentified friend. She didn’t speak for a moment as she collected her thoughts.
“That my be true,” Vanilla replied matter-of-factly. “But that’s not something I can decide for you I’m afraid. But you need to tell your friend about this decision if you truly wish to break up with them. Avoiding them entirely will only hurt both of you more in the long run, especially if misunderstandings are left in the air.” Amy didn’t reply for a while, her mind stewing over the possibilities. Blaze sheepishly peered around the corner, seemingly not wanting to interrupt the conversation.
“Is everything okay, dear?” Vanilla asked her, still smiling.
“Yes of course,” Blaze replied politely. “I just wanted to…” she drifted off as she scrambled for her excuse for returning, not wishing to make Amy uncomfortable. Before she could conjure a response, Amy stood up from her seat.
“I’m sorry, but I need to go,” Amy announced tensely. Blaze became nervous, but she saw the relief on Vanilla’s face, so she eased a little.
“I hope it goes well, sweetie,” Vanilla encouraged softly. Amy nodded, then left the house in a slight hurry. She ran towards the tree outside the city where she and Shadow often met. She had no idea what it was she was going to say or if he would even be there, but she knew that Vanilla and Rouge were right – she needed to speak to Shadow. Eventually she made it there, but she could tell from a distance that he wasn’t there. Placing a hand on the tree, she bent forward slightly and tried to catch her breath. Before she could fully do so, she heard someone approaching. She considered turning around, but the thought of it being Shadow made her heart hurt.
“I didn’t expect to see you here,” the familiar voice spoke flatly – of course it was Shadow. He stopped and looked at her for a moment, expecting her to turn to face him. When a few seconds had passed with no response from her, he sighed and folded his arms in discomfort. “Listen, I need to talk to you. I’ll be brief but its important, okay?”
Amy stood up and looked over her shoulder at Shadow. He saw the fear in her eyes again, which made him even more uncomfortable. Looking to the ground, he spoke again. “I’m not sure how to say this eloquently, so I’ll just be blunt. I think we should break up.”
Amy’s eyes widened and she slowly turned to look at Shadow. She looked completely shocked at the suggestion. “You…want to break up with me?”
Shadow’s ears drooped sadly, but he nodded as his gaze moved to the ground. “It’s clear that I cannot get close to people without hurting them. I know you said it was inevitable for that to happen, but I cannot bear the thought of seriously hurting you. I appreciate you very much for wanting to give me a chance, but I think it’s better for us to part ways now before something worse happens.”
Amy stood dumbfounded for a moment, unsure what to do or say. Shadow continued to look at the ground until the silence became unbearable, at which point he looked at Amy to gauge her reaction. Her head was slumped and her hand covered her mouth. She began trembling a little, and every fiber in Shadow’s being screamed for him to comfort her. He instinctively raised a hand to reach to her, but before he could do anything, a strange sound came from Amy that stopped him in his tracks. All of a sudden, Amy burst out laughing, causing Shadow to recoil a little in surprise. After a few seconds, he became discouraged at this reaction, interpreting it as mocking.
“Are you seriously laughing at me right now?” Shadow asked with an unintended sharpness. Amy finally made eye contact with Shadow, her eyes filled with tears. Even as she stopped laughing, she oddly continued to tremble.
“I’m sorry,” Amy replied with a confusing tone of voice, one Shadow couldn’t identify the emotion of. “I was thinking the same thing. But hearing you say that made me feel so silly.”
Shadow raised a confused eyebrow. A hundred thoughts warred in his mind and he couldn’t figure out how to response. “I…don’t get it.”
Amy took a couple of steps towards Shadow, smiling awkwardly with tears still in her eyes. “I thought you’d hate me after what happened because I couldn’t help you. I was so scared that when I saw you again, you’d be so deeply upset with me and I’d have no choice but to break up with you. But you’re still just as considerate and kind as ever.” She carefully took one of Shadow’s hands and cupped it with both of hers. “It feels ridiculous to think I’d want to give up what we have without fighting for it. I love you so much, Shadow. This situation has only endeared me to you more.”
Shadow couldn’t believe what she was saying. “It…has? But I could have hurt you.”
“And I could’ve hurt you,” Amy swiftly noted. “You were in a vulnerable position and I allowed my own pride to get ahead of me. I wanted to be the one to help you, so much so that I lost sight of what you actually needed.” Amy glanced down at the hand she was holding, smiling tenderly. “I’d love to get to a place where I can help you in those situations, but I know now that it isn’t something I can force.” She paused for a moment before looking back up at Shadow with a more saddened expression. Her hurt stung as her mind focused on the gravity of what Shadow had requested moments ago. “If…you still want to break up with me, that’s okay. But please don’t push me away. I want to be by your side, even if you don’t love me anymore.”
Shadow stared wide-eyed at Amy’s words, shocked at her thought process. Without even a second thought, Shadow wrapped his arms around Amy, holding her tightly with one hand on the back of her head. Amy froze, unsure how to react. “How in the world could you think I don’t love you? I’m so madly in love with you that the thought of you fills my mind every waking moment. The last thing I want is to be without you.”
At that, Amy reciprocated the embrace and began crying aloud, unable to hold her emotions back any longer. She felt the strength in her knees yield, but Shadow didn’t let her fall. He eased her to the ground and continued to hold her as they knelt on the ground. He wasn’t fully confident why she was crying, but he knew he didn’t want to let go. After a few minutes, her crying began to settle until all Shadow could hear was the occasional sniffle.
“I’m sorry,” he finally spoke. “I didn’t mean to make you cry.”
Amy pulled back and shook her head. “Please don’t say that. I am just so…relieved to hear you say you love me.” Amy stared quietly at Shadow, her expression nervous and unsure. “Do you still want to break up with me?”
Shadow shook his head, looking away with a seemingly shameful expression. “I never did. I just didn’t want you to sacrifice your comfort to stay with me. I know that I’m not exactly good with social situations, and I’m especially unfamiliar with the type of closeness we share.” He looked up again and his eyes became tender. “But even if it’s scary, the fear of uncertainty is vastly overshadowed by how happy you make me. You fill me with a warmth that I’ve never experienced before now. The idea of being apart from you hurts me more than I can bear.”
Amy gently placed her hands on his cheeks. “Oh Shadow, you really can be a dummy sometimes. I love you so much.” She closed her eyes and placed her forehead against Shadow’s. “It’s such a relief that we can stay together. I don’t know what I’d do without you.” Shadow closed his eyes and soaked up the calm that washed over him. He wasn’t sure what it was, but Amy had a way of bringing him a measure of peace. A few moments passed before Shadow slowly opened his eyes, only to be met with Amy’s soft gaze in return.
“You’re so pretty,” he whispered affectionately. Catching Amy off guard, her eyes immediately widened and her face reddened at the compliment. She pulled away and covered the lower part of her face with her hand. Shadow watched her for a moment, then chuckled a little at the reaction. He then smiled comfortingly at her. “You were right. My reaction to this whole situation was foolish. But in all honesty, I’m glad we shared this moment. It’s nice to just have our feelings voiced so plainly. And it’s oddly comforting that we were both so worried about hurting one another that we came to the same solution, albeit the wrong one.”
Shadow then stood up and offered Amy his hand. It took her a moment to snap out of her flustered daze, but after a few seconds she took Shadow’s hand and was helped to her feet. Amy admired Shadow’s gentle smile, feeling as though she were in a dream.
“It seems a silly question after all this,” Shadow spoke with a relaxed coolness. “But can we end our trial period and officially begin dating?”
Amy smiled with a keen joy. “I’d like that very much!”
Shadow’s smile grew slightly at her reply, and he sighed in relief. “Well that was all rather draining. I probably ought to get you home before your guests become worried.” Amy raised an eyebrow in confusion. “Guests? What guests?”
Shadow returned her puzzled expression. “Don’t you have Silver and Blaze staying at your house?”
Amy shook her head. “It’s their last night, so Silver is staying with Sonic at Tails’ place and Blaze is staying over at Cream’s.” Amy paused for a moment, then her expression changed to slight panic. “Wait, I’m staying there too! I was supposed to pack, but I’ve been so out of it the past few days that I haven’t even started.”
Shadow thought to himself for a moment. “Well that’s no good.” He took Amy’s hand and began walking. “Come on, I’ll help you.” Amy was a little surprised at Shadow’s firm decision to help, but his serenity made her feel less stressed. They both walked to Amy’s, holding hands the whole way. She occasionally glanced up at Shadow, as if to try and settle within herself the idea that he was her boyfriend.
“There you are!” an angered voice shouted, snapping Amy out of her trance. Both she and Shadow turned to see who was speaking, though he seemed to already know. They both watched as Rouge flew swiftly towards them, thought she made a beeline for Shadow. “You said you’d be home for dinner! What in the world are you doing out here?”
Amy stood in between them both, holding her hands in front of herself defensively. “Please don’t be upset! It was my fault. He offered to come help me with something.” Rouge appeared a little surprised that Amy was there, as if she hadn’t processed that she had been there the whole time. She glanced over her head at Shadow, who looked unbothered. Her eyes then widened in realisation.
“Wait a minute. Are you two…together now?” Rouge asked to confirm what she was seeing. Shadow averted his gaze as if he had been caught redhanded doing a crime, so she looked at Amy for feedback instead, who sheepishly nodded. Rouge stared blankly at them for a moment, then smirked smugly as she hid her mouth behind her hand. “In that case, don’t let me get in the way.” Her gaze moved to Shadow and he grew nervous at her teasing mood. She then looked at Amy again. “I’ll get the scoop from Shadow later. You keep him for as long as you need, hun.” She then waved and flew off snickering, leaving the bewildered couple behind.
Shadow sighed as he turned. “I suppose I have that to look forward to when I get home.” He then offered his hand out again. “Shall we?” Amy took his hand and the two of them continued to her house.
When they arrived, they went straight to her room and packed. Shadow seemed to strictly only talk when he needed to ask something related to the packing, but Amy realise he was trying to stay on task so that she wasn’t late. When they had finished, he helped carry her bags downstairs, at which point she extended her hands to take the bags, but was confused when he seemed to hesitate.
“Perhaps I could carry them to Vanilla’s home for you?” he offered shyly.
“Don’t be silly,” Amy replied softly. “I’m more than capable of carrying them myself. Besides, you’ve already gone above and beyond as it is.”
“I know, it’s just…” Shadow glanced away, a slight blush forming. “I want to help you. This is the kind of things boyfriends normally do, right?”
Amy giggled a little. “Oh Shadow, you don’t have to force yourself to act a certain way just because we’re dating.” Amy’s expression froze for a moment as she processed what she had said. “We…really are dating now, huh?” Shadow’s eyes drifted back to her, trying to gauge her emotion. He was pleased to see she had an almost dreamy expression on her face. He smiled, then leaned forward a little so that his face was nearer her’s.
“We are, and as such I have every reason to dote on you.” Shadow’s sudden switch to near flirtation caught Amy off guard, enough that he was able to pass her and exit her house. He turned and smirked at her, a smug grin of victory on his face. “Are you coming or will you just stand there gawking at me?”
Amy puffed out her flushed cheeks in a feigned annoyance. “Of course I’m coming!” She quickly walked through the door, before locking it and walking alongside Shadow. “You’ve been spending too much time with Rouge,” she huffed with an exaggerated pout.
“You’re acting as though you’ve never teased me,” he gently countered. Amy glanced up at him and was pleased to see that he seemed to be genuinely enjoying their time together. More than that, he almost appeared to be glowing with joy. She smiled widely and held his arm as they walked.
“I guess if it’s you then it’s okay,” she relented, though it was clear her offence was a playful act the whole time. To her surprise, Shadow leaned into her affections. He rested his head atop hers for a moment.
“Glad to hear it,” he spoke with a softness that previously seemed impossible for him. Amy felt her heart skip a beat at this, taken aback by his sudden fondness. Perhaps a part of her still predominately viewed him as someone who was aloof and touch averse, but he was acting quite the opposite now. Without her realising, they had already arrived at Vanilla’s house. Shadow glanced down at Amy, who seemed hesitant to let go of his arm. He leaned down and spoke quietly to her. “Are you going to knock or should I?”
Amy reluctantly let go and stiffly knocked on the door. Within seconds, Cream swung the door open excitedly. Her beaming smile dropped as she saw Shadow standing beside her.
“Mr Shadow? What are you doing here?” Before Shadow could respond to Cream’s question, her mother appeared behind her and smiled invitingly at him.
“What a pleasant surprise!” Vanilla greeted with enthusiasm. “Do come in, the both of you.”
“Oh, no that’s okay. I was just-” Shadow’s protests were interrupted by Vanilla taking Amy’s bags from him, proceeded by Cream excitedly taking his hands and dragging him into the house. Amy giggled at the interaction and followed them in, closing the door behind her. Blaze looked over to see what the commotion was about, and was surprised that Shadow was here. It only took a few seconds for her to piece together what this meant. She approached them and offered her hand to shake.
“Greetings Shadow,” she spoke formally as Shadow shook her hand. “Please don’t worry. I’m aware of your’s and Amy’s arrangement. Your secret is safe with me.”
“About that,” Amy interrupted, overhearing them. She then realised that perhaps Shadow wanted to keep their dating officially a secret, so she nervously looked at him for a hint as to what to do about her potential blunder. He looked at her for a few moments, then looked back at Blaze.
“Amy and I are officially dating now,” he confessed flatly. Cream overheard and let out a dramatic gasp.
“Dating? You’re dating Miss Amy?” She then beamed excitedly and hugged Shadow, causing him to freeze up. “Hooray!!” It was not quite the reaction he had expected to the news. He looked at Amy anxiously for help who began to laugh at the hilarity of the situation, much to his dismay.
“Now now, Cream,” Vanilla lightly scolded, prying her away from Shadow. “That’s no way to treat our surprise guest, is it?”
Cream looked up at her mother, then nodded. She turned and spoke to Shadow, “Sorry Mr Shadow.”
Vanilla then approached Shadow. “Won’t you stay with us for dinner? It would be a wonderful treat to have you join us.” Though nervous at the prospect, the thought crossed Shadow’s mind that if he was to date Amy, he needed to get a bit more accustomed to her way of living, and in turn her friends. So he agreed to it, which oddly seemed to excite everyone.
They all sat at the dining table as Vanilla presented homemade food and placed it on the table. There was lively chatter as they ate, though Shadow mostly stayed quiet. Despite not speaking much, there was a pleasant warmth and comfortability about the situation. After they finished eating and chatting for a while, Shadow realised it had gotten late and that he would need to leave.
“Thank you all for having me,” he spoke up in a formal tone. “I need to get home now, but I’m honoured to have been invited to join your evening meal.”
“The honour was ours,” Vanilla assured happily.
“I’ll see you out,” Amy replied as she and Shadow stood up. She walked him out the door, closing it behind her so she could speak to him before he went home. “Thank you for staying.”
“It’s quite alright,” he responded. “In fact, I found it rather pleasant. I suppose all things considered, those were the tamest of your friends.”
“That’s true,” Amy acknowledged with a chuckle. “Still, I’m glad you enjoyed it.”
“Can I ask you a favour?” Shadow asked nervously. Amy nodded, prompting him to continue. “Can we keep what happened earlier between us? I’m feeling rather embarrassed at my conduct.”
Amy stepped forward and took his hands carefully. “Of course. It should go without saying, but that the kind of thing that stays between us, Shadow. But you don’t need to feel embarrassed over what happened. As you said, it was nice that we could just be honest about where we were at. And above all, I’m so incredibly honoured to officially be your girlfriend.”
Shadow warmly smiled at her, then glanced over her to the house. “I’ll let you get back to your friends.”
Amy nodded and let go of his hands. “I’ll see you tomorrow.”
“You know where to find me I assume?”
Amy giggled. “Naturally. Goodnight, Shadow.”
“Goodnight, Amy.” With that, Shadow waved and walked away. Amy lingered for a moment as she waved back, watching him as he slowly disappeared from sight. She stood there for a moment, smiling giddily at herself as she reflected on the outcome of the day. She then sighed as she collected herself before returning inside to join the others.

YEAH , THERE ARE NO PLANS . the only plan was 'escape,' and here they are. she asked for a way out of that so she wouldn't have to deal with abstergo. AND SHE GOT IT ? now what though? is she just going to sit here in the quiet. JUST GOING TO MOVE ON ? anyway , it continues being crazy. DOESN'T IT ? roxana sighs , yet again. HER HEAD TURNS .
... if not for anything else , it's just kassandra as her team now. SHE SAYS THAT LIKE SHE EVER CARED ABOUT HER TEAM . everything in abstergo was so cold. this doesn't feel cold. AND IT'S NOT THAT SHE'S COLD . she has a house , with neighbors , she plays catch with the neighbor's kids. YEAH , ABSTERGO REALLY HAD HER BY THE THROAT . roxana stands.
she's going to have to do something instead of sitting there anyway. IT'S JUST GOING TO DRIVE HER CRAZY . she wants to help , actually , but look at her making excuses for why. roxana stretches her back , rolls her neck , takes off the utility belt. HANGS THAT OVER THE CHAIR . she takes off her gloves next. reaches into one pouch to pull out a lonely granola. SHE CAN ALREADY FEEL HOW BROKEN UP IT IS . and when she opens it , she has to pour pieces into her mouth. SHE'S GOING TO GET HUNGRY SOON , ISN'T SHE ?
the gloves are tossed on the chair before finishing the granola bar and throwing the wrapper on top of the gloves. THEN SHE WALKS OVER TO KASSANDRA . sits on the edge of the mattress. she was actually going to reach out , yet again , but another memory flashed before her eyes. THEY'RE HEAVY . kassandra's same face. a bowl of fruit next to her head. SKINNIER AND A LITTLE BATTERED . the hand that was reaching out has to recall to press to her forehead again.
It's weird for a moment, having Roxana in her hidden little place, just under the cliffside where they first made love so long ago. She flips on the generator and the lights suddenly fill the room, nothing too bright, just enough light that it wasn't absolute darkness in here. The other woman immediately found a chair and settled herself in, while Kassandra stands for a few moments, realizing the adrenaline that had kept her going is finally wearing off.
The healing process is never without pain and manages to compound with the pain from the injuries themselves. At her count five bullet wounds, a few stabs, and she took some baton shots to the ribs as well. The bullet in her leg is especially bothersome, radiating through her entire thigh. She takes a few steps further in when the pain shoots up her entire leg and she stifles what would have been a loud yelp as she collapses onto the mattress.
And yet Roxana is still her main concern, even with those Isu markings in her skin glowing brightly, especially in the low light of the safe house. "Are you okay?" She asks, never clarifying if she means physically or mentally. She means both. To be honest, she hadn't even thought this far beyond getting them out of there, all her plans had gone to shit.
"Find whatever is in there, whatever Piece of Eden it may contain and neutralize it. Then I plan on sealing it off for good. Man isn't meant to handle what they left behind."

hope you're proud of the things you've normalized because you just cant accept you did anything wrong
#instead of being like 'yeah i was toxic and wrong for this' you'd rather try to find ANY excuse you can to justify the things you do#and believe and then you normalize acting that way to your followers who normalize it to their friends and then your popularity on tumblr#means even more people see your dipshit dumbass lack-of-critical-thought ass takes and absorb it too bc people on here are dumb#and see a popular post and think that means its correct#hope you're proud. hope it doesnt backfire on you. but we both know it will. all because you cant accept what you did.#all bc you'd prefer to be a compulsive liar bc you're too much of a coward to face yourself.#how long will you keep running away and burning everyone in your path to you realize you're holding the lighter?#hell- its not even just realizing you're holding the lighter- its also accepting you're being a shit person for burning people#instead of continuing to make excuses to do it.#but of course. that would require you actually feeling bad for your actions#yknow. instead of doing it in that narcissistic bojack sort of way.#which isnt actually feeling bad for how you hurt others- more feeling bad you were caught#idk. maybe you just dont have the capacity. wouldnt surprise me.

This is part 1 of a continuation for my other post where LL Megatron gets trapped in the G1 universe, I was thinking about how someone would go insane in this cartoon world and thought "what if Megatron had someone else to accompany him" so, I gave Starscream an existential crisis
Edit: pt 2 here
#guys i cant continue this comic I'll get too attached to the “oh its g1 animation errors excuse”#“this has great potential to be hilarious” makes angst instead#starscream i love you but your shoulder spike thingies are annoying to draw#theres only two parts but i wanted to keep my streak of posting art daily#DO NOT BE FOOLED BY HIS CUTE FACE HES STILL EVIL hes just having alot of thoughts right now#sorry if my handwriting is hard to read at the end#i print when i can but i... unironicly write in cursive#transformers#megastar#megascream#megatron#starscream#megatron x starscream#transformers fanart#transformers g1#tf idw#transformers au#ok looking at this a day later i realize how bad the flow is#note to self draw just make comics on the same canvas in the future#i will say though Ive never made comics before its pretty good for character angle practice! I need to do more of these#also use a character ref sheet!!! I gotta look at refs if im gonna do this cause its kinda obvious most of my drawings are from memory#G1 x LL AU

Sometimes I think people just want an acceptable target to bully.
I remember when my former friends in high school used to giggle and laugh at boys who wore makeup, or dresses, or were feminine. That was bad, but one of the most bizarre things they mocked were boys that ran their hands through their hair? Those "friends" would say that boys who ran their hands through their hair were disgusting or gross.
I do that. I was out to them as nonbinary. Running my hands through my hair in a "boy fashion," gave me gender euphoria. So their mocking made me feel guilt and shame for the habits I did as a boy.
When I brought up that their jokes made me uncomfortable because of being trans, they just went "well we weren't talking about you, the boys that do that are actually gross though."
And they continued to make the jokes.
I guess they thought they were "punching up" against men, but what they were really doing is punching me. And they didn't care that their words hurt me, because they never saw me as a guy to begin with.
I think they just wanted an acceptable target to mock, and they just mocked superficial things with the 'men gross' excuse. As if it was all okay. But it really wasn't.
#the same 'friends' never gendered me correctly#needless to say I do not remain in contact#but I do want to shoot a text to them and go 'what the fuck' because what the fuck#transphobia#transandrophobia#remember! if someone says that your jokes are hurting them#and you continue to make the joke#you are a fucking asshole#it's really funny how most 'punch up' jokes rarely hit the target that's 'up'#and instead it just whacks me in the face#yippee#people really want to hide behind excuses to be assholes to others for superficial things and it shows

i love that my therapist was like . “bitch, lie more”
#i give way too much access to myself to people who don't respect it#and i need to be more protective of my time and energy and vulnerability.#she’s like. if you get a phone call you don’t wanna answer. if you’re in a conversation you don’t wanna continue to be in. LIE.#say you need to go cuz you have plans. pretend you’re in the middle of something. fake an incoming phone call.#if you need to spend an entire day in bed and someone thinks that means you’re available. say you’re running errands all day instead!#if you don’t want to answer a question. you actually have to go pee really bad all of a sudden!#the autism makes this so so so hard for me. i do not think well on my feet. but i need to like.#pre-load some of these excuses into my vocabulary and my toolbox.#cuz my mom & my stepmom both run me the fuck over if given more than very controlled allotted access to me.#and i cannot keep living like that.#izzy.txt

Man imagine whining because I called you a moron when you’re in fact being a moron
#personal#like. do you expect me to dance around the subject when that shit is as plain as day?? fuckin loser#being perceived as ‘a mean person’ should be the LEAST of your concerns#mr. I Won’t Disclose That I Have A Girlfriend While I’m Fucking Around With People#mr. I Will Continue To Call This Person A Princess Even Though That Person Is A Trans Man And He Told Me To Stop#mr. I Refuse To Look Inward And Change My Dickheaded Behavior And Instead Continue Being Verbally Abusive Towards This Same Person#mr. I’m Gonna Whine And Cry At My Echo Chamber Fanbase About Being Called On My Bullshit#because if people thinking you’re a big meanie at minimum is gonna make you pout then you’re gonna be REAL sad if I tell you exactly what’s#going on in my head every time I think about you#and he HAS no excuse to say ‘ohhh arsenic is this arsenic is that wahhhh’ because I was singing your praises for a long ass time#I did not have any reason to be this pissed until he started acting like an ass. and he’s SUPRISED that people think he’s an ass.#I’m sorry it’s just. I legitimately have never been this pissed at someone before#so infuriating to watch your loved one getting shit flung at him by some dumbass guy who refuses to pull his head outta his ass#gonna go down the salted earth route with this dude one of these days if he doesn’t cut this shit out#his fanbase is already fucking with my friend’s income because they think he’s a closeted racist when they have no fuckin proof of that shit#and do I need at fuckin say that the person who initially made said accusation is a white person? and my friend is a poc? and I’m ALSO a poc#and so is our OTHER friend#over some wolfwood art of all things! ‘wahhhh he isn’t being drawn how I like’ then fuckin scroll past that shit and stop bitching#fuck man.
