this may be kind of an unusual question so feel free to ignore it, but i tend to make lots of links and associations of concepts/situations with music and stuff and so i'm curious, what are some songs that you'd pick to describe what it would be like to be in a relationship with chan? or some songs that suit his placements (for example, i think work song by hozier is peak scorpio venus devotion level haha)
okay i LOVE this question!!! (also currently in a hozier phase so i love that you brought up that song.) if you have any other recs, pls send them my way, but here's some that had come to mind:
✨🎶 Dating Channie Sounds Like 🎶✨
the friendship/relationship stage:
i don't think it's just me who thinks that chan is gonna have to know & be friends with someone before progressing to a romantic relationship. i think he could definitely pine over someone for a while and be too scared to say anything. and then if something DID happen between the two of you, you would have to hide it for a pretty longgg time. that's why i chose these 2 songs :)
• human - dodie ft tom walker ✨
• hush hush - the band camino✨
actual committed relationship phase:
• medicine - royal sugar ✨ this gives me such new-relationship, pent-up sexual tension vibes. this man would not be able to stop thinking ab you sexually when you first get together... 100%. sex w/ him is likely initially more fun, like in this song, but once he gets to KNOW you, it gets wayyyy deeper
• tenerife sea - ed sheeran ✨ this one might be a cop-out bc chan has sung it multiple times on channie's room but i couldn't NOT put it in here. moving past the superficial, this song paints such a new, mesmerizing love story. you are elated you finally found your person.
• mess is mine - vance joy ✨ i'm sorry but the lyrics "this body is yours and mine" & "now your mess is mine" is so channie-coded to me. he is offering himself up to you. anything you want from him is yours & he will take on all of your hurt
• fire and the flood AND lay it on me - vance joy ✨ these were just so all-encompassing, i couldn't not include them. you become the most consuming part of his life. he quite literally can't go a day without thinking of you and how fucking attached his heart is to yours. you are his everything and only thing. "i always feel you in my blood" & "your love's always finding me out."
• until you - ahi ✨ this song isn't as relevant NOW, but it really throws me into a pre-debut channie love story tbh. bless his little heart 💔 i couldn't NOT include it bc it's still beautiful.
• anointed - miguel AND religion - lana del rey ✨ these have the same purpose, so i'm including them together. when channie is truly in love with you, he won't fuck you- he fucking worships you. well, you worship each other in the bedroom. and i feel this a million times. he needs something deeper and he needs to feel consumed in it. praising each other until you physically have no stamina left in your body.
tough times/drifting apart/ fights:
sorry but i had to add a couple of angsty songs that i could totally see playing out in a relationship w channie </3
• fleeting love - royal sugar ✨ i 100% see this song being about your struggles with a long distance relationship. not being able to work anything out, but also not being able to let them go. "in the elevator with your passport... goodbye is 10 floors down." you just want him so badly, but you don't know you can do this. you were so happy to have him, even if just for a little bit.
• berenstein - the band camino ✨ chan always talks about alternate universes, so i had to add this one in. the line "at another place in time, you were infinitely mine," it makes me think so much about if you were perfect with channie, and you both knew that... but you simply couldn't be with him because of his idol life. but you knew that somewhere out there in a parallel universe, he wasn't an idol, and you were together like you were meant to be :((((
bonus song:
this song reminds me SO MUCH of chris. the first time i heard it, i instantly thought of him. it isn't a love song by any means, it just makes me think of him && his life/all he's been through ❤️
• time's eyes - riley pearce ✨
if anyone has a song they automatically think of with channie, pls pls pls let me knowwww!!!

OC Deep Dive Questionnaire Tag
A set of 20 questions to get to know your OC!
Tagged by @nocturnalazure
Today is an excellent day to answer this for pre-revolution Nicolas. Tomorrow would have been a bit more complicated.
What uncommon/common fear do they have?
He’s very confident and not easily cowed. His double-life being exposed is of course the thing he wants to avoid most of all. But he sees this more as a risk than as a fear.
Do they have any pet peeves?
He has no patience with dilettantes who get their facts wrong about art-history.
What are 3 items you can find in their bedroom?
Books; an Egyptian scarab which was given to him as a lucky charm; a painting of the Forum Romanum from his Grand Tour.
What do they notice first in a person?
General appearance and demeanour. (Bonus fact: What immediately attracted him to Jonathan was that he has vaguely classical features – and what totally got him was that he speaks French with a Scottish accent)
On a scale of 1 to 10, how high is their pain tolerance?
7-8. He was brought up not to be whiny. But he's had a comfortable life in good health so far.
Do they go into fight or flight mode when under pressure?
His instinct would rather be flight (or solve the problem with money and/or influence), but if duty binds him to fight, he will stand his ground.
Do they come from a big family/are they a family person?
Not really. He grew up with only his mother as immediate family. He saw enough of his parents’ marriage as a boy to get rather disillusioned. On the other hand he’s proud of his family’s legacy and never questioned his duty to continue it. He does try to be a better husband and father than his own. But if he were just an average person of today, he wouldn’t have wanted any children. He’d be content to travel the world with Jonathan, but actually Jonathan wants more of a family-life.
What animal represents them best?
He always reminds me of a cat, being very neat and taking his privileges entirely for granted.
What is a smell that they dislike?
He lives in a time where various kinds of stench are so common that he’s glad enough to avoid those.
Have they broken any bones?
See above - he's had a comfortable life in good health so far.
How would a stranger likely describe them?
“Arrogant idiot” (Matt)
Are they a night owl or a morning bird?
He moves in circles where it’s not unusual to rise at noon, so the interesting things tend to happen in the evenings and at night. When he’s working by himself, he prefers the early hours for their better light.
What is a flavor they hate and a flavor they love?
The likes coffee, both for its aroma and as a status symbol. He doesn’t like coarse food, like gruel or badly prepared cabbage.
Do they have any hobbies?
As an aristocrat, studying Antiquity is officially his hobby, not his job. But it’s his true calling and he even made some money from it. Apart from that, he’s always ready to join in any pastime suggested by the group he’s with.
Boom, surprise birthday party! How do they react to surprises?
He’d pretend not to be surprised at all – but there’s no way he would have forgotten to organize his own birthday party. At home, this would be a very dignified meet-and-greet. In Italy it would be a picnic by some scenic ruins with good wine and a select circle of friends (plus their travelling-companions, private secretaries, or whatever they wish to call them).
Do they like to wear jewelry?
No. He retired the family’s signet ring and had a more practical stamp made for sealing letters. (Like all my characters he doesn’t wear a wedding ring because those are are such clumsy meshes, a nuisance to put on in CAS and only add to the blur of other accessories.)
Do they have neat or messy handwriting?
Neat handwriting, signature with lots of frills
What are two emotions they feel the most?
Mild amusement, cool stubbornness
Do they have a favorite fabric?
Anything that looks and feels like high quality. Not necessarily limited to a particular material.
What kind of accent do they have?
A French one, when he speaks English. His Italian is accent-free and his French is supposed to be very posh (if only my own weren't so poor!)
Tagging @windermeresimblr and @kimmiessimmies

𝐊𝐍𝐘 𝐆𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐥 𝐏𝐨𝐥𝐲! 𝐇𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐜𝐚𝐧𝐨𝐧'𝐬!
includes ;; kyojuro x gn!reader x tengen synopsis ;; these hc's basically assume the reader is just a civilian, but there's also a demonslayer!reader bonus ;) content ;; fluff. a/n ;; this prompt was recommended to me :) and by god I did it
��☆☆ # general relationship !
days can switch between domestic bliss to overtly interesting dates. tengen always comes up with the initial idea for a date (like dinner or going to a festival) and kyojuro naturally likes to expand on it and plan accordingly. setting up times and places.
tengen loves the sounds of your combined laughter, it melts his heart when he realizes its happening. as the sound hashira it quickly become his favorite.
they're both very spontaneous and heart-led people, sometimes they need a reminder to slow down and think things through. . . and on the other hand its good for you to be dragged along into their antics!
whenever tengen sees you throughout the day he's always gonna give you a kiss or a hug / kyojuro will sort of linger to you, managing to rest his head on your shoulder and/or bury his face in your neck
kyojuro is the person you both kind of look to for support, he's a bit wiser and emotionally inept as a partner. In fact its easy for him to pick up on everyone's off days. the biggest supporter for you both!
speaking of which, these tall boys usually don't bend down to kiss you, they'll scoop you up right off your feet for one
when tengen cooks for you two he likes to do so alone, he's very capable of managing a fiery kitchen alone, you two would just get in the way so "sit down and wait until its done"
always communicating with you, about their schedules/work, just to talk in general or make plans. even with both of them are away at night or on missions
i also feel if you guys were ever cuddled together on a bed or a couch you'd be squished in the middle, back against tengen's broad chest and your legs being rubbed by kyojuro
there both always warm too (maybe too warm)
both tengen and kyojuro are relieved to have each other and you, having such strong partners puts their minds at ease.
tengen doing that thing where he fixes your outfits/appearances if a little thing is out of place.
tengen also brags about you two to anyone who's interested in listening to him / kyojuro's face turning bright red in embarrassment
kyojuro loves surprises! especially small ones like hugs (and it's pretty easy to sneak up on him too since his hearing is kinda shot)
kyojuro is very open about everything. doesn't hide much and tells you both how he feels / tengen keeps to himself a little more, at least the personal stuff (he thinks he can handle it on his own)
jealousy levels: tengen doesn't get too jealous, maybe frustrated is a better word. would definitely just drag you away and keep you to himself for a bit
as for kyojuro, he gets quiet and a little sulky (puts distance between himself and everything else) and would never question either of you of cheating
☆☆☆ # w/ a demonslayer!reader !
when you all train together tengen doesn't seem to take it all that seriously (just tries to show off his physique) and kyojuro likes advice on his form
massages for everyone after a hard day
honestly, they respect your decision to join the corps. sure. . . but they'll always worry for you.
the pride they'd feel if/when they witness you pass the final selection or become a hashira unto your own (it's immeasurable)
them just being stunned. absolutely gob-smacked at your abilities
or taking them down in training
overpowering tengen or outmaneuvering kyojuro would probably have their skin burning from the neck up. (its like the feeling of falling in love all over again)
them lowkey betting on which color nichirin blade you'll get
and they wouldn't fight over who would take you as a tsugoku (but then again . . . maybe) even which breathing-style is best for you
of course everythings your say in the end. . . but they're still gonna help
#demon slayer#imagines#kimetsu no yaiba#kny#x reader#fluff#headcanon#reader insert#kyojuro rengoku#kny kyojuro#kny rengoku#uzui tengen#kny tengen#kny uzui#uzui tengen x reader x rengoku kyojuro#poly#relationship#this post is so long omfgf#its fine#sorrynotsorry

🦂 sonic oc showdown q&a 🦂
logo by @bunnymajo!! you are awesome @sonic-oc-showdown thank you for giving me reasons to talk about my boy nya
✨- How did you come up with the OC’s name? sting is what scorpions do! they sting. bonus points because it's funny! it sounds like a command. "sting the scorpion"
🌼 - How old are they? (Or approximate age range) 17
🌺- Do they have any love interest(s)? not at all! he's got other things on his mind
🍕 - What is their favorite food? hmm good question! something spicy. my partner says he'd be more popular with the girlies if he ate ice cream but that's not how he rolls. sad for the girlies 😔
💼 - What do they do for a living? two things! sting is a medical student with a focus in neurology! his poison primarily affects the nervous system so he wanted to learn specifically how that worked, and that led to a general interest in the field. as a result, he always carries a vial of antivenom with him, just in case someone has a really bad reaction his more full-time position is as a mercenary! medical lessons were expensive, so he needed a way to pay it all off. he's taken up all sorts of odd jobs as a result. he doesn't really question what he's doing so long as he gets paid well. in my fanstory, he's doing contracted work for an ex-gun researcher named taz nocturne. afterwards, he occasionally helps out team chaotix as an informant
🎹 - Do they have any hobbies? sting would consider his mercenary work as a hobby tbh? it was supposed to be a hobby. he won't admit that it's basically his Job now. he likes to sign up for martial art classes to learn new techniques, not necessarily to participate in tournaments (though he would like to one day). asides from that, he likes to play sudoku :] he is not good at it
🎯 - What do they do best? close-range fighting, that's why being paid to fight someone is one of his favorite jobs. he's also Really good at shooter-type arcade games like galaga, do not try and beat his score
🥊 - What do they love to do? What do they hate to do? to rephrase what i said above: he likes to fight, primarily because he Knows he's good at close-range combat and it makes him feel good to prove that again and again. sting needs someone to knock him down and remind him that he is, in fact, not the Best at what he does he hates doing things unfairly, which is why he refrains from using his tail in combat. that said, he'll use his stinger if he has to, as the job ultimately comes before his pride
❤️ - What is one of your OC’s best memories? to be quite honest i haven't thought about it!
��️ - What is one of your OC’s worst memories? i also haven't really thought about this 😭
🧊 - Is their current design the first one? oh not at all. sting went through a few changes. general idea has always been the same but his "hair", mouth, markings, and clothes changed throughout the design process. i actually plan on making a separate post detailing all the the thought i put into his design! i'll add the link here (if i remember)
🍀 - What originally inspired the OC? i saw @/beehunterkisser's sonic bug designs and i was Majorly inspired by them. i Had to make a bug. sting was one of the results. i went with a scorpion because scorpions are Really Cool
🌂 - What genre do they belong in? i've imagined him being in the games/idw comics verse! i do want to make my fanstory into a fancomic one day 👉👈
💚 - What is your OC’s gender identity and sexuality? he doesn't really use labels to describe his gender or his sexuality, whatever happens happens. he uses he/him pronouns and that's all you really need to know
🙌 - How many sibling does your OC have? he has no idea! he doesn't talk to family
🍎 - What is the OC’s relationship w/their parents like? non-existent
🧠 - What do you like most about the OC? oogh...i gotta say his design. i really popped off tbh. other than that i think he's got fun interactions with the sonic cast and i like his personality! unfortunately the interactions only really exist in my head
✏️ - How often do you draw/write about the OC? relatively often tbh!! i usually draw him fighting sonic. i was in the process of writing a fight scene but writing fights are hard and i struggle a lot with writing ehehe ^^;; a lot of this stuff isn't posted because i am Shy™
💎 - Do you ever see yourself killing off the OC? oh god no
💀 - Does your OC have any phobias? he's got acrophobia! keep 👏 him 👏 on 👏 the 👏 ground 👏
🍩 - Who is your OC’s arch-nemesis or rival? he doesn't have one tbqh! he doesn't really feel strongly against anyone
🎓 - How long have you had the OC? i wanna say late april-early may? that's around when he was first concepted iirc!
🍥 - What age were you when you created the OC? 22! the age i am as of making this
#cosmic chatter#text#sting the scorpion#sonic oc showdown 2#sonic oc#my art#doodles#my ocs#WHEW#i will figure out how to draw my boy at diff angles#either way enjoy some info abt sting!#taz is another one of my ocs. if you follow me you mightve seen her

For the ask game: Dorothea, tis the damn season, cowboy like me?
oughhh the trifecta...
dorothea: If youre ever tired of being known for who you know y'know, youll always know me....dorothea
I just love when taylor really leans into wordplay and turns of phrases and this might be one of her most effective and smoothest examples. evermore is probably one of her albums with the least amount of what I affectionately call Taylor Clunk, which comes in many forms but here is where taylor has a specific idea she wants out and refuses to cut but she cant quite make it fit leading to awkward vocal patterns, rhyming a word with itself or painfully basic/obvious rhymes, songs where the structure just doesnt quite click etc. You can find it plenty in her catalogue but especially on the better bonus/cut tracks like jump then fall (rhyming face with face, you can almost feel her irritation that she cant fix that), its time to go (the "thing" bridge that feels just a little too vague and awkward compared to the rest of the track) and IION (the verses are just kind of a mess structurally). This line? is what happens when taylor has nothing but time to hammer out each kink and annoyance and just make a lyric that flows like water. Its extremely singable and noticably clever but also still clears as smart if you sit and think about it while working beautifully within the song and still feeling real to the character taylors inhabiting. HM: "skipping the prom just to piss of your mom and her pagent schemes" "from you i'd buy anything"
TTDS: theres an ache in you put there by the ache in me/but if its all the same to you, its the same to me
what a profoundly sad and resentful lyric in a profoundly sad and resentful song. This one line I think really captures what TTDS is about which is aboutthat constant sense of feeling trapped. You felt trapped in your home town and you ran away, you escaped, but the escape alone isnt enough as you have what feels like all the same issues but somewhere else, and how a few times every year you have to walk back into the open spring-trapped cage and be reminded of the comfort of the cage you already know compared to the one youre pursuing. the what if of "should I just come back and be unhappy here if theres at least one person who will truly understand that?" Old habits are slipped into easily but not unknowingly, and the ache is still there even as dorothea and her lover pretend for just a weekend that they are still two anchors in one terrible place kind of silverflitn if you think about it i mean what. When paired with Dorothea as a track its also a tale of poor communication, dorothea as a character creating a sense of resentment from her lover far more intesne than the fond sadness in her namesake track. HM: "if I wanted to know who you were hanging with while I was gone i would've asked you" "I parked my car right between the methodist and the school that used to be ours"
CLM: now you hang from my lips like the Gardens of Babylon/ with your boots beneath my bed, forever is the sweetest con
AMBIGUITY BABY!!!! CLM has a stone cold poker face with a bleeding gash of emotion on its cheek and i love it so so much (the my own private idaho AMV that exists in my head for this song goes so crazy you wouldnt believe). this weird little third-verse-bridge-thing (the structure of clm is batshit even genius barely knows what to do w it i cant believe the track works as well as it does)plays on the surface as plainly romantic but like all the best stories it doest quite line up. The song itself feels like a story being spun a story is true a story is untrue i mean what by someone trying to avoid the direct stating of a too-painful truth. Even within this imagined narrative, reality slips through. The Gardens of Babylon are a great and beautiful thing, and architectual wonder lush with life. They also most likely never existed. A common thread throughout evermore is the questioning of its own reality, of if any of it was real or just a construction of marriage or suburbia or the law or death or a dream or our own anxieties, almost none of the songs have a conclusive, clear-cut ending and some even loop into themselves (tolerate it and gold rush both end how they began). In the end, this is a tale told over a campfire under the new mexico night sky as you watch the storyteller look off into the distance and you wonder if anything theyve told you is even a little true. HM: "Never wanted love just a fancy car/now I'm waiting by the phone like I'm sitting at an airport bar" "tellin all the rich folks anything they wanna hear/like it could be love, it could be the way forward only if they pay for it"
#ask#isitcasualnow#taylor swift#lyric ask#you KNOW im not normal about evermore#i didnt even know i had so many thoughts

defiance - the winter soldier
Plot: The Winter Soldier tries to defy his handlers. Warnings: The Winter Soldier/Bucky being mind wiped, abused, tortured, drugged and having his identity stripped from him. Also has mentions of violence, pain, blood and injury/bruises. Nothing too graphic, but even so. Also Alexander Pierce and HYDRA, because they're warnings all on their own. Please use your own discretion. But as always, if I miss any triggers, please let me know. Notes: This is for @whumptober Day 11: "All The Lights Going Dark and My Hope's Destroyed." I also combined it with the bonus prompt captivity. Someone PLEASE give Bucky a break.
Not beta'd, so any mistakes are my own.
It’s cold. That’s the first thing he thinks, even as they force him back in the chair, the metal chain clamping around his ankles… it's too cold in here, much colder than it usually is. Goosebumps run up his arm, the hairs sticking up. The Winter Soldier watches, slightly intrigued by the sensation. His body feels so new, so different. He practically discovers new things about it every day. Despite having his metal arm for as long as he can remember, he still struggles to get used to it.
Sometimes though, he sees a flash of a memory through his mind. One of a happy and much younger version of himself. But when he tries to recall the rest, there’s only empty space, static where there should be words, voices, people. He glances around the room, watching as the agents continue on with their routine. The man with the clipboard is back, chatting with another agent. The Winter Soldier doesn’t know their names. He doesn't know his own name, or if he even had a name. He’s just The Winter Soldier. Despite being HYDRA’s best weapon, and their pride and joy… he’s still not important enough to know anyone’s name.
“Why is that? How is that fair?” He thinks, the sudden words making his brow furrow. He’s not supposed to challenge them, or dare question their work. The same work that saved him from certain death at the hands of the enemy and made him into HYDRA's prized weapon. He’s stronger and quicker than ever, an extremely skilled marksman who also excels at hand to hand combat. And all because HYDRA saved him and took him under their wing.
Or at least, that’s what they told him happened.
“Bucky! No!” a voice shouts in his mind, so loud it's as if the person is right there with him, and he flinches.
“Who is Bucky? Why is that name so-”
But as he tries to pinpoint who the voice belongs to, or when those words were said... all he finds is empty space.
Suddenly, the man with the clipboard is standing right beside him, his unexpected arrival making him jump. He adjusts his glasses, checking the Winter Soldier’s vitals before the procedure. The same procedure he’s gone through countless other times before. The burn marks on his temples throb in anticipation, a harsh reminder of what’s coming. And he braces himself, ready for the pain.
He fucking hates this procedure.
“So why do you let them do it to you?” The question throws him, and he frowns, brows drawn together in confusion. He’s right. Why does he sit back and let them treat him like this? They keep telling him how grateful to him they are, and how useful his work is to them… but that doesn’t excuse the pain they unleash on him. Surely there's another, better way to do this.
So, when the man with the clipboard comes back for his final check, the Winter Soldier speaks. “No.” His voice is so quiet the man doesn’t hear him, and he frowns.
“Excuse me?”
“No.” He repeats, this time more forcefully. “I don’t want the procedure.”
In response, the man gasps, his face paling. He rifles through his notes, unsure of how to react. After all, their prized soldier has never defied an order before. They trained him to be compliant. To do what they say and not fight back. It’s what he does every time.
But this time, he doesn’t want to. It feels wrong. He doesn’t want to just grit his teeth and survive like he’s used to doing. To wake up each day to new bruises and wounds on his body, ones he can’t remember getting, and just accept them as part of the job, because HYDRA said so. He wants to live and find things out for himself. On his own terms.
So when the man leans in again with a syringe, the Winter Soldier grabs his arm, wrenching it away from him. The man cries out in pain, and others rush up to them, trying to hold the Winter Soldier down. Yet, he keeps fighting, pushing against the men with all his might, showing the full range of strength HYDRA gave to him. After all, they trained him to use it on his enemies, and anyone who would hurt him.
They just never expected him to use it against them.
The fight continues, a bloody blur of fists and pain. And for a while, it seems like the Winter Soldier has the upper hand. Until a door opens and an all too familiar voice speaks. One that strikes fear into the Winter Soldier’s heart.
“What is going on here?” The question stuns the Winter Soldier for a moment, and the agents take the opportunity to grab him, pulling him back into the chair and locking the restraints around his arms. He lashes out, trying to wrench his arm free, but he’s pinned down too tightly.
Must get out.
Must fight back.
He pulls with all his might, straining and pushing his metal arm to the limit. The second he gets out of here, they’re going to pay. A grinding noise fills the air, the sound of metal against metal. Nothing budges. but he keeps going, refusing to let them win. Another agent approaches. "No." He repeats, hissing and growling at them like some sort of caged animal. He contorts his body, twisting and turning as he tries with all his might to get away from them. Unfortunately though, he's tied down too tightly, limiting his movements. Something stabs him in his human arm, and he turns just in time to see a syringe being pulled out. A man steps forward.
“Mister Pierce, sir….” An agent tries to explain, but Pierce shakes his head, a disapproving look on his face.
“Shut up. This shouldn’t have happened again.” He hisses, his voice just loud enough for the soldier to pick up.
“Again? But I’ve never disobeyed orders before… What does he mean, ‘again’? Have I done this before? Why don’t I remember it? What happened to me?”
Pierce steps forward, keeping a steely gaze fixed on the soldier. “What happened?” He asks, bending down so he’s eye level with him now. Yet it still feels like he’s talking to him like he’s a child.
“I didn’t want the procedure.” He murmurs. He hates how quiet and guilty his voice sounds then, like he’s already ashamed for what he’s done. When he should be burning this place to the ground for all they’ve done to him.
“I’m sorry?” Pierce frowns. “You… didn’t want the procedure?” He repeats. “But that procedure helps you do all our great work. It helped you shape the century!” He chuckles, as if he can’t believe why he would ever turn down the chance to make a difference in the world. Those words used to make him feel incredibly guilty, make him stop fighting and do what they asked. But now, they’re not enough.
“It hurts. I don’t want it to hurt.” Pierce rolls his eyes, making the Winter Soldier even angrier. How dare he mock his pain? He grunts under his restraints, trying to wrench his metal arm free. But he can start to feel the effects of whatever they injected him with now... his mind is hazy, and his vision is starting to blur a little. It must be some kind of sedative. He groans, his body feeling like it weighs a hundred pounds.
And he stops fighting.
“Good try by the way, but our restraints are strong enough to withstand you.” Pierce grins.
"Bucky!" The voice speaks again. He still can't register who it is, or who this Bucky even is. His wary gaze is fixed on Pierce, who just keeps staring at him with those beady little eyes. Honestly, he just wants to rip them out of his skull. And then, the horrible realisation that he’s going to be stuck here forever slowly sinks in, seeping through his entire body.
“Please….” He speaks, his voice strained. Tears spring at his eyes, despite his furious attempts to prevent them from seeing his pain. Because then they’ll know they’ve won. “I just don’t want it to hurt anymore.” He murmurs. Pierce steps forward, and for a moment the soldier thinks he might have a chance here. Maybe his attempts have broken through his hard exterior?
The slap that hits him soon erases all thought of that. His cheek burns and stings with the pain, and for a moment a dull buzzing fills his ears. He blinks, gasping. They’ve struck him before. He knows this. But it’s never been with such force, such ferocity… or been left so stunned afterwards.
“Don’t ever disobey me again.” Pierce warns, his voice low and threatening. “Wipe him and start over.” He huffs, walking out of the room. Something burns deep inside the Winter Soldier’s gut, willing him to keep going, to fight back, and tell them that if they ever touch him again, he’s going to make them pay.
But the ferocity of his slap stuns him into silence, and the sedative flowing through his system is preventing him for doing much else. And before he can even react, he’s being strapped in even tighter, and the familiar hum of the machine sounds, reverberating throughout his body. And he’s trapped once more.

💯, 🐉, 🤍, 🥪, 🍛 for Stevie
thanks for the ask 🥰 ily
poppin' this under the fold bc it got long oops
💯 HUNDRED POINTS SYMBOL — share three random facts about your oc that others may not know.
since this is my first official post about her, i'll use this as an opportunity to go over the basics 😤 it's def more than three facts but whatevre
persephone "stevie" vega is a journalist and otherwise artsy type who always has at least three projects going to bounce between and completely drop when she gets wrapped up in a case
she was adopted by her two moms on the west coast and then spent most of her life in a crunchy lesbian commune that her moms founded outside of a small town in vermont, though she did go to public school and interact quite a bit w the local community
she had a whoopsie baby when she was ~16/17 and ended up keeping her and naming her after herself (a la gilmore girls but w supportive parents) who everyone calls percy
when she was in college, she met her future wife, enzo; enzo and percy are very close and not long after they got married, enzo adopted percy
stevie and enzo got divorced last year after their careers and some personal crises drove them apart and they decided it would be best for percy's sake to separate
fast forward to the present, her moms have now decided that they want to retire from the commune living and have moved to a bigger town in maine, so stevie moved herself, her kid, and her (reluctant) ex-wife to join them
🐉 DRAGON — what is your oc's favorite mythical creature?
stevie is a phoenix girlie. i imagine she is the type who chose a favorite when she was like fourteen, got a tattoo of it at eighteen, and it's stuck with her ever since lmao
🤍 WHITE HEART — what are three of your oc's neutral/questionable traits?
she is stubborn as hell. this CAN work in her favor when she's hunting down a story like a dog w a bone, but sometimes it causes trouble in her interpersonal life.
she says that she doesn't believe in all of the hippy new age stuff that her crunchy crystal moms believe in, but sometimes she finds herself leaning into it, almost like a superstition.
look, she's wise. she's got sense. she knows herself. but she can also somehow convince herself that all of her projects are good ideas. she bought this whole fixer upper bc her ex-wife is a contractor and she helped her a bunch on projects, so she's convinced herself that she's going to be able to renovate the whole house in less than a year. BY HERSELF.
🥪 SANDWICH — what does your oc's typical lunch look like? do they usually eat lunch?
lunch is the meal that most often falls by the wayside for her, at least when she's by herself. midday is usually the time where she's getting really into whatever project or story she's working on, so unless someone reminds her that food exists, she doesn't realize what time it is until percy is coming home from school or someone distracts her long enough for her to realize that her stomach has been growling since 11am.
however, when she does realize (or if it's a weekend/holiday where percy is home all day), she makes a spread. lots of different things, especially snacky sides like cut up fruit and veggies with dips and sauces. she eats a lot of fruit and veggies bc that's just how she grew up eating bc of all the farming on the aforementioned lesbian commune. bonus points if it's in a smoothie. extra bonus points if that smoothie is basically a milkshake.
EDIT: I FORGOT A VERY IMPORTANT CATEGORY: stake out lunches! stevie takes percy out on stake outs sometimes so she's gotta make sure they get fed. those lunches are definitely giant bags of fast food that are bigger than either of their heads.
🍛 CURRY AND RICE — what does your oc's typical dinner look like? do they usually eat dinner?
her moms and their friends were all very multicultural so she probably cooks food from all around the world, and she strikes me as the type who likes to show her love through food. also, i imagine she took a nutrition class or two when she was younger to make sure that she wasn't going to like, accidentally give percy the gout or something.
dinner is usually the main meal of the day that she plans out ahead of time so she can go all out. lots of the time, it's something she preps in the morning or the night before and throws in the slow cooker or something - stews, curries, soups, some meat that will be fall-off-the-bone tender in six hours, etc. plus any extras that might be needed.

How They Cuddle
karasuno x reader
warning(s): none ! :)
a/n: some sweet luv for the hq boys :) I’m planning on doing a part for the other fandoms I write for too - aot, bnha, & jjk - as well as the rest of the hq teams/characters - so keep an eye out if you’d like! And as always I love interacting w you guys :) feel free to leave comments/flood my inbox :D!
characters: daichi, asahi, sugawara, nishinoya, tanaka, yamaguchi, tsukishima, kageyama, hinata, yachi, & kiyoko
Daichi
He’s a hugger for sure! If you’re on your phone, or reading, or doing anything before bed he’s snuggling up behind you and resting his head on your shoulder to watch what you’re doing - he’s nosey like that. Anyways, being the big spoon is a very convenient cuddling position for that, and he gets to wrap you up and hold you close <3
Through the night though he slowly scoots down off his pillow in his sleep, so when you wake up his face is nuzzled into the middle of your upper back with his arms still squeezing around your midsection so tight you know you’d have to wake him up to get him to let go 😭 he’s also for sure a light snorer, but it’s ok he makes up for it by being cute or whtv 🙄
Asahi
Another spooner! He’s not particularly bias to being the big or little spoon but he just can’t face you 😭
There’s a few reasons: 1) it makes him freak out and it’s like he can feel your eyes on him even if they’re closed. He’ll be constantly peeking one eye open to look at your face and he’s half scared he’s gonna open them and you’re gonna be staring at him like 👁👁 LMAO
2) the breath on his face tickles too much and will eventually start to irritate him and he gets pouty cause it makes it tough to sleep
And 3) what if he’s making a weird face in his sleep and you wake up to see it 😭
So spooning for the win it is
Sugawara
I don’t think he’d be a big fan of being held, it makes him feel too claustrophobic and he’d feel kinda bad moving you off of him if he had to use the bathroom in the middle of the night :( I also think he tosses n turns a bit while sleeping so holding him wouldn’t be the best option anyways, however!
He likes touching/lightly intertwining legs - one reason is because you can kind of get away with it from any angle but still find a comfortable position that suits you, the other reason is because his feet get cold in the middle of the night and this is the easiest way to steal your warmth
Nishinoya
Ok ok, so I know it’s cliche - but I do think he’s a teensy bit too excited for bedtime cuddles! Not in a restless way, he’s just too excited with the act of actually cuddling you, like every time. Day cuddles are different! When the two of you have some alone time and he’s snuggled up with you on the couch, leaving a bunch of kisses (his favorite are Eskimo kisses), periodically grabbing your face so your lips pucker and leaving a dramatic kiss there after he talks about how cute you are (“oh my god you’re so adorable I could crush you ☹️🥺”), and then squeezing you so tight sometimes your back even cracks, it’s fine! You’re not trying to sleep so it’s just sweet Noya doting on you - but you can see how this would be a problem when y’all are tryna get some shut eye 😭
Solution: back to back, but touching so you can still feel each other’s closeness <3, bonus: every time Noya becomes aware your guys’ butts are touching he giggles and wiggles a little until you remind him it’s time to sleep 😭
Tanaka
Ok but he needs to have a hand on your ass and not even in a sexual way 😪🤚🏼 he just grabs on naturally or rests his hand there and sometimes lovingly pats it when he kisses your cheek before either going back to falling asleep or being on his phone or smth :)
He also loves burying his face in your neck, it just feels so soothing to him and he also finds your smell so relaxing and makes him feel all warm inside! Like when he sees you after a long day he loves wrapping you up in a big hug and leaving kisses in the crook of your neck and burying his face there cause he just missed you sm <3
Yamaguchi
Very much like Hinata he also adores being intertwined with you!! He finds it particularly comforting with your face buried in his chest or neck while he has his legs wrapped up with yours. He thinks it’s the best position to lean down and press a kiss to the top of your head (his favorite kind of sweet kiss), which he always does right before he feels himself drifting off to sleep.
He also likes rubbing your back/neck this way until you fall asleep, or while you talk about anything you wanna talk about. Waking up this way is also his favorite, and if you guys have moved in your sleep, you bet he’s pulling you back into a hug. He periodically squeezes you in his arms, leaves feather light kisses to your shoulder, runs his hands up and down your back, sure you probably won’t be asleep for much longer now with all this movement, but he just can’t help it with how sweet you look sleeping! Don’t worry though he’ll keep up the soothing while you wake up and talk about your dreams and what you want for breakfast :)!
Tsukishima
Not much of a cuddly guy throughout the day but when bedtime rolls around you bet your ass he’s expecting some kind of physical affection. His favorite is when he lays on his back with his arm out so you can nuzzle into his side, and once you’re all comfortable he wraps said arm around you to pull you in close.
Your favorite is when he runs his hand up and down your side or draws little designs with his fingers on any exposed skin. His favorite is when you bring your face up to rest in the crook of his neck or rest your head on his chest, any light kisses you leave or the breath that puffs out of you and hits his neck every now and then never fails to give him goosebumps and make him blush.
Kageyama
I don’t think he’s particularly ~stiff cuddling with you but I definitely think it’s not his forte when it comes to bed time! He just finds a comfortable spot - usually on his side or back - and that’s that! He’s found it and is gonna be out in approximately 2 minutes, but he does love feeling you in bed next to him :(
A good compromise he’s decided is reaching his hand out next to him him so he can hold onto your hand while he sleeps, or being the little spoon! It actually feels super comforting to him to feel you all cuddled up to his back and keeping him warm no matter if you’re bigger or smaller than him <3 he also loves the way he has to pry your arms off of him when he has to get up in those early mornings, or the way he feels your face squish up against his back sometimes, he just loves you.
Hinata
He definitely gets hot in his sleep but he love love loves cuddling with you, so you’ll always start off wrapped up in each other somehow. Usually face to face with your legs intertwined cause he thinks talking to each other about any and everything is a good way to wind down before bed - and I mean anything. Sometimes it’s just him asking you odd questions he’s been thinking about recently before one of you remembers you can google it
But no matter how you two fall asleep at first, you always wake up clinging onto his sprawled out body (probably because he’s kicked the blanket onto the floor and you got chilly in your sleep) or far away from him with all the blanket to yourself as he peacefully snores beside you <3
Yachi
Play with her hair and she’s KNOCKED 100%! She also loves either holding you or being held, but there’s got to be SOME kind of holding going on for her heart to feel full <333
She’s also the queen of surprise hugs from behind once you’ve been together for a fair bit and she feels more comfy being publicly affectionate with you! And if you do the same to her it never fails to make her smile or cover her face cause she’s blushing from surprise
“(Y/n)!! You startled me!” And now you have a very excited & giggly gf 😽😽
Kiyoko
I personally see her as a pretty religious back sleeper so the most ideal position is you in her side or you laying between her legs while she holds you and your head is resting on her chest. PERSONALLY she prefers the second one but she leaves it up to you <3
She just thinks it’s most ideal how she could reach down and trace her fingers lightly on the side of your face; or play with your hair if she’s able to; or rub your neck, back, and shoulders to ease any stress from your day. She’s a big giver of private affection and thinks it’s so cute when you’re so tuckered out you she wakes up with a little drool on her shirt. Not to mention your weight and warmth is super comforting to her ! And even if she wouldn’t admit it, she likes being able to use not wanting to move and wake you as an excuse to get 5 more minutes of you cuddling with her.
————————
Ahhhh hehehehe I hope you like and comments and all that jazz are always appreciated!! Big smooches :)

SFW Alphabet - Simeon
This man seriously owns my entire heart. Like, I would trade all of the brothers just to be with him, no questions asked lmao
A = Affection (How affectionate are they? How do they show affection?)
Surprisingly, he’s not that affectionate. Well, at least not physically. He enjoys spending time with you and being in the same room, but he hardly ever craves psychical affection like the brothers do. The farthest he usually goes is hand-holding and maybe a little hand kiss too, but he rarely goes beyond that unless he’s feeling especially clingy that day. Just being near you is enough for him really.
B = Best friend (What would they be like as a best friend? How would the friendship start?)
Friendship with him can go one of two ways. He’d either baby you like he does with Luke, or lowkey bully you like he does with Lucifer, no in between. It really depends on how you are as a person and how he sees you. If he sees you as someone who needs protecting and is a bot more on the childish side, you’ll totally be another Luke to him. And if you’re someone whose more on the opposite end of that spectrum, calm, composed, serious, he’ll treat you more like he does Lucifer. But he loves you all the same.
C = Cuddles (Do they like to cuddle? How would they cuddle?)
Cuddling is probably the one exception to the lack of physical affection. He loves nothing more than to curl up next to you in bed after a long day of dealing with RAD, Luke, and Solomon’s “cooking”. He especially loves laying his head on your chest so that he can listen to your heartbeat. It just calms him down and reminds him that you’re really here with him.
D = Domestic (Do they want to settle down? How are they at cooking and cleaning?)
Man is the definition of malewife (besides Barb), so of course he’s amazing at any kind of chore. He’s also gotten quite good at household chores after having to take care of Luke for so long. And, trust me, he would love to settle down with you. Maybe Luke could come along too? That would be ideal.
E = Ending (If they had to break up with their partner, how would they do it?)
He’d be super gentle about it. The last thing he wants is to make the situation any worse than it’s gonna get, so he breaks the news as calmly as possible. If the situation did somehow escalate, he would try is best to get everything under control lest someone get hurt (physically or emotionally).
F = Fiance(e) (How do they feel about commitment? How quick would they want to get married?)
As much as he’d love to get married, he also wants to take it slow. He understands that relationships need time to develop, so he wants to wait until both of you are absolutely sure before going any further. After all, marriage is a big commitment to an angel, so it’s important that everything is perfect.
G = Gentle (How gentle are they, both physically and emotionally?)
He is so gentle. Like, he’s the best when it comes to care. Maybe it’s just his instincts as an angel, but he feels the need to protect you from any harm whatsoever. He always makes sure he has permission before touching you anywhere, and he’s constantly checking up on you and making sure you’re feeling well. really, he just wants you to feel as comfortable as possible with him.
H = Hugs (Do they like hugs? How often do they do it? What are their hugs like?)
He likes hugs, but he doesn’t give them out too often. It’s almost always you who goes to him for hugs first unless he’s in a really good mood. But he’ll never deny anyone who does want a hug, especially you (and Luke).
I = I love you (How fast do they say the L-word?)
Honestly, he probably waits a while before saying it. In fact, you might end up being the one to say it first. He wants to take things slow, and the last thing he wants is to make you feel rushed by saying it too quickly. He loves you very much, and you’re both highly aware of that, but actually saying the words takes time for him.
J = Jealousy (How jealous do they get? What do they do when they’re jealous?)
Surprisingly, he gets really jealous really easily. Not so surprisingly, he’s very good at hiding it. He just hates how much time you spend with the brothers, and he’ll use anything to get you to come over. His most common excuses usually involve either Luke or Solomon needing supervision and him needing help with that. He never means to guilt trip or gaslight, but he lowkey might if it means getting you to him quicker.
K = Kisses (What are their kisses like? Where do they like to kiss you? Where do they like to be kissed?)
He is a sucker for for hand kisses, both giving and receiving. They’re just so romantic to him, and they don’t take much effort either. His kisses, regardless of where they are, are super loving and romantic. All he wants to do is sweep you off your feet and make you feel loved.
L = Little ones (How are they around children?)
*cough*Luke*cough* All jokes aside, he does really love children. He just loves how innocent and joyful they can be, and he loves how they speak their minds since most don’t have a filter. The chaos they can get into is also an added bonus, even if it can be a hassle to clean up afterwards.
M = Morning (How are mornings spent with them?)
Mornings can go one of two ways. The preferred way is you two waking up around the same time and just staying in bed for a couple hours enjoying each other’s company. These mornings are usually filled with sweet words and soft touches. The other, less preferred way, is absolute chaos. It doesn’t matter if you stay at the HoL or PH, there will be chaos. And one (or both) of you is going to have to fix it.
N = Night (How are nights spent with them?)
He tends to stay up late working, so you can either go to bed and he’ll join later, or you can stay up with him. Either way, he’ll try and finish up as quickly as possible so that he can curl up with you in bed. If his day was especially stressful, he’ll hold you close to him and rant about all of his worries. Side note: please pet his hair, he deserves it.
O = Open (When would they start revealing things about themselves? Do they say everything all at once or wait a while to reveal things slowly?)
He’s actually pretty open with you, which is kinda surprising. I mean, he does have his secrets he’d much rather keep, but who doesn’t. However, he also knows the value of trust in a relationship, so he tries his hardest to be open and honest with you as possible. He hopes that you’ll do the same as well.
P = Patience (How easily angered are they?)
The freakin definition of patience. He’s dealt with so much throughout his life, so he’s grown to have an amazing temperament. Of course he can get annoyed (*cough*the play*cough*) but he does so well at controlling it most of the time. This patience is specifically applied to you and Luke. You could literally murder someone and he probably still wouldn’t be mad.
Q = Quizzes (How much would they remember about you? Do they remember every little detail you mention in passing, or do they kind of forget everything?)
He’d remember most of what you say, but he’d hardly ever utilize it like some of the brothers do. He’ll use the information in more subtle ways. You mention. a certain flavor of cake you like? He makes sure Luke makes some during hsi next baking session. Any shows you enjoy? He may not watch them depending on the length, but he’ll do some research on them so that he can talk to you about it.
R = Remember (What is their favorite moment in your relationship?)
His favorite memory is this one time you came over to bake with Luke. Luke, precious thing, was trying out this new recipe, and he was super excited about it. But, of course, Solomon had to come in and mess everything up and now the kitchen and half the house is a mess. Luke is super upset, Solomon is lowkey enjoying it, and Simeon is there watching the world burn around him. And through it all, you stayed there and helped them clean up even when you didn’t have to. He just found it so sweet that you took the time to help Luke and also the rest of the Hall as well. It ended up being a fun day even if he did scold Solomon for hours afterwards.
S = Security (How protective are they? How would they protect you? How would they like to be protected?)
He’s decently protective, but that’s mostly is angelic instincts. Angels have that natural instinct to protect humans, so he had that urge even before you two became a thing. And that urge only became stronger as you two got closer. However, his protection comes in more subtle ways, like most of his gestures. Someone getting a bit too close to you? He’ll put his arm about you and slowly back you away. The brothers are fighting again? He’ll step in front of you to make sure you’re not caught in the cross-fire.
T = Try (How much effort would they put into dates, anniversaries, gifts, everyday tasks?)
Like pretty much everything else, he’s much more subtle with his dates. He prefers more lowkey options, like a picnic or just hanging out in either his room or yours. You guys never do anything over-the-top, and he likes it that way.
U = Ugly (What would be some bad habits of theirs?)
He tends to prioritize others over himself a lot, and he’s been trying to work on it for a while. And, obviously, he’s terrible with tech. I honestly have no clue how he’s survived this long not knowing how a D.D.D. works past the basics.
V = Vanity (How concerned are they with their looks?)
He’s naturally pretty, so he doesn’t need to care. Jokes aside, he isn’t one to particularly care for his looks. He does want to look nice and presentable, but it isn’t usually a top priority compared to someone like Asmo or Mammon.
W = Whole (Would they feel incomplete without you?)
WIthout a doubt. He tends to get attached to people very easily, and you’re no exception. Once you two being getting close, it’s over for him. From then on, he’s attached to you. If something were to happen to you, he would simply cease to exist.
X = Xtra (A random headcanon for them.)
He and Michael totally had something going on at one point. Maybe they still have something going on. Hell, maybe even Luci was involved at one point. I have no clue where this idea came from, but it’s in my head and so now all of you are being subjected to it as well.
Y = Yuck (What are some things they wouldn’t like, either in general or in a partner?)
People who dislike Luke are a big no for him. Sorry, they’re a package deal. You want him? Well, now you have a child too.
Z = Zzz (What is a sleep habits of theirs?)
He tends to make noises in his sleep. It’s not really cohearent words or anything, more just like light snores and stuff. Kinda like a dog when it really gets into a dream, ya know?

chae chae my love!! 😚💗 i saw your post so i had a question for you 🤭 i was wondering who comes to mind for you when you think of the best friends to lovers trope? <33 personally i’m most reminded of gyu and jay!! i feel like they’d both be those teasing bffs but also quite protective of their friends in that “only im allowed to tease them” way … i think the two would be somewhat subtle in the way that they show that they care for you but at the same time it’s not smtg that they’re hiding or are embarrassed abt. i could see jay gifting little trinkets to his friends that remind him of them & individually checking up on everybody to make sure they’re taking care of themselves. gyu would always be there for you, cracking small jokes to make sure everybody’s happy & bringing you your favorite snack when he knows you need a pick me up. both are always so attentive and it’s hard not to fall for them when they’re both so sweet and genuine in the way that they show their affection towards you <33 ahh idk how to word it but they have such comforting and reliable vibes ♡♡
HELP U WROTE A WHOLE FIC FOR ME BAE <33 I LOVE THIS TY
i agree with u sm on this!!!!! jay would definitely be that protective, sweet best friend who's always there for you! he's always so caring and sweet with his words :( i feel like with this trope, there would also be miscommunication 🤭 like bc he's so nice, you figure he treats you the same as everybody else when in reality he only rlly cares for you </3 and bonus if he also doesn't make a move bc he's so in love with u that he doesn't wanna lose you!!!!!
and oml the best friends trope was literally made for gyu!! he's definitely more of a teasing bff who likes to see you flustered 🤭 like he likes to tease you and joke around, but also lowkey i feel like gyu would be open about his feelings (?) like as soon as he realizes he likes you, he's the type (at least w/ this trope) to flirt with you to see you blush and etc! he just loves seeing your reactions and uses it as a way to sorta hide his feelings without exactly hiding them!! tbh, even tho u might think he's joking all the time, he would probably try and show you that he's serious <33 they're both perfect i cant

The Fellowship reacts to ur top surgery
((This is 100% self indulgent. im dysphoric and in need of validation ok leave me be))
At least in my experience, showing off ur chest after surgery is a trans thing. Trans femmes, trans mascs, androgynous non-binary ppl, agender ppl, doesn’t matter. Makes sense too, when at least in the US u pay thousands for that designer chest. So here’s my take on how the fellowship would react. CW for top surgery and the things that come with it. Also for those who are pre op and dealing w dysphoria it could b emotional.
Gandalf would give u advice beforehand, telling u what to ask ur surgeon, walking u through the procedure and what to expect in recovery. Upon seeing ur chest post op for the first time he’d prob say something like “ah yes, fine work indeed. Be sure to thank your surgeon for me.”
Aragorn, man of few words, will simply high five u n say “nice”
Legolas would 100% be the “OOH IT LOOKS SO GOOD” kind of friend, u know? Prob would ask lots of questions abt the procedure and healing process.
I 100% believe and support the headcanon that dwarves are super chill abt gender. They do not give a fuck and i love it. So gimli being himself would prob react like an overly proud dad. like “YEEESSS!!!” (U know, like the one part at the end of FOTR) and attempt to raise u up on his shoulders. Depending on what race u see urself as In Middle Earth, he’d have varying degrees of success.
Merry: *lifts shirt* hey me too! Teet yeet buddies ((I love trans merry so much I’m physically shaking. Trans Meriadoc rights))
Pippin, upon hearing abt loss of sensation after surgery, would start repeatedly poking ur chest (with consent) saying “well can you feel this? what about this?” He’ll also bring up how he’s heard of ppls n!p grafts falling off after surgery and will ask u if ur worried abt that, and what u would do if they did fall off. U can’t tell if he’s being serious. Also bc I’m a believer in genderfluid/genderqueer pippin, i feel like he’d def make t!tty exchange program jokes.
Ik a lot of ppl headcanon him as being a little transphobic but I’ve always headcanoned Boromir as the person who takes time to learn but once he does is aggressively affirming and pro trans rights. Or like the ally who’s the embodiment of the “he a little confused but he got the spirit” meme. So like he doesn’t get it but he recognizes it makes u happy and is happy for u bc of that. Also he will 100% go up to bat for u. He may not always say the right things but he’ll show up when it matters. I think he’d be curious abt the process and want to ask u abt it, but would b nervous to say the wrong things.
Sam is the person who asks abt ur recovery, checking in to make sure ur feeling ok, and is ur after surgery support. He’ll help u for the first couple weeks after, make sure ur taking ur meds when u need to and u have everything u need to make recovery as quick and easy as possible. He also learned as much abt it before hand as possible, even asking ur surgeon more questions than u did. Upon seeing ur chest for the first time, he’ll make comments abt how it’s healing very well, and ask if u have been doing everything the doctors said.
I feel like Frodo would say something v intuitive. “I’m not sure if this is an alright thing to say, but this looks right on you. I’m not sure how to explain it. It just seems better for you. Like a weight is gone. You look happier, is what i mean.”
Bonus:
The Fellowship as a whole, but specifically the Rich Boy Squad (Merry, Pippin, Frodo, Legolas and Boromir) see to it that everything is covered, so u don’t have to worry abt the cost
U express concerns abt post op depression/regret and some of the members of the fellowship (u decide who) help u write letters to remind urself why u did it in the first place.
U go swimming for the first time post op w the Fellowship and it’s one of the best and most affirming experiences ever.

so basically my friend told me today about her dream she had that involved a demon and of course my mind went “...SAIOU AU”
here’s our convo so it makes sense:
if I had the motivation i would DEFINITELY write a fic about this- the fluff/crack/angst potential is t h e r e
and as a bonus doodle,
story is under the cut (it’s long)
“I was gonna keep this in tags but hsdf;j” is what I originally wrote here until I started thinking about this more and sorta wrote the whole plot-
-> as ouma’s killing the other monster things he flirts with shuuichi while the poor demon has never been flirted with so he’s stood there all confused and ??? (his version of blushing would be like, the fire coming from his small horns gets bigger and brighter)
-> the one he summons ends up being like. kaede and they both just end up having to lecture shuuichi on why it is that he should not want to die so easily
-> eventually kokichi and kaede wanna give him a hug so they try to but shuuichi’s Extra Hot™ (from being a demon and also probably blushing) so they both immediately regret that choice but kokichi laughs and gives an obligatory pun about shuuichi being hot which only confuses him because ‘of course im hot?? im a demon??’ while kaede explains what ouma meant
-> imagine shuuichi crying (fire tears..) at the generosity of these two strangers who a) aren’t absolutely terrified of him, b) refuse to hurt him and c) actually *want* to help him and ouma actually inwardly understanding a little bc he’d never imagine someone actually wanting to be with himself either
-> saihara now wanting to know what it’s like to live as a human with ouma and akamatsu but being unable to find a way (except for maybe being undercover?) but promising he’ll bring ouma back to him (he’s aware of the whole aging phenomenon in the lil demon world so he wants to keep their time short) and ouma finding that now he has something to look forward to
-> the 👏 mutual 👏 pining 👏 that commences after they both have to leave each other (if kaede knows kokichi in the real world she’d definitely tease him a little knowing he has a crush- this is probably good potential for building oumaede friendship)
-> it takes a while before ouma and saihara can see eachother again because getting the two to escape without killing saihara exerted a lot of energy on him, but they do get to! about once a month to be safe, and they get to know stuff about eachother like which shops ouma likes to steal from and shuuichi’s really loud demon friend he once had (aka momota)
-> one day though saihara tells ouma that if he keeps doing this he’ll die of exhaustion (it takes a lot of energy from saihara to get ouma in and out of there) and ouma calling him an idiot but really being worried. saihara tells him not to worry about him even if something happens to him, and makes ouma go back to the real world
-> ouma doesn’t hear from him after that
-> he worries he might have been killed or saihara forgot about him and feels stupid for being so hopeful in something so childishly impossible and starts trying to forget about him
-> the real world is aware of demons cause people talk about them (and obvs you can tell when someone’s gone to their.. dimension thing because you can visibly see them age) so still denying that he’s curious and likes saihara still, ouma tries to go to libraries and do his own research on demons and ends up finding out that saihara specifically comes from a bloodline that makes him quite powerful if not for that he wouldnt want to take the risks that come with it and then lowkey gets excited again for saihara while still in ✨denial ✨
-> it’s been almost a year when saihara has enough energy (and more) to ensure that his new plan is successfully carried out and that ouma (and potentially 1 more..) gets back to the real world safely. he created this plan when he figured out how to exist in the real world- by sacrificing the thing he cares most about
-> so when ouma suddenly gets that off-feeling people get when they’re leaving the real world he feels very many emotions at once (giddily going ”ohh my god its not this it cant be this no way oh heck tthisis not happening not a chance”) until he sees the face he’s been waiting 4 months for again except this time it looks.. frighteningly cold
-> ouma’s instincts are screaming at him that something is very, very wrong here especially when he can’t hear any warmth when saihara says “Welcome back, Ouma. It’s your final time” and explains the whole ‘kill these monsters then kill me’ thing again
-> ouma’s confusion inevitably turns to annoyance as he kills the dudes (there appears to be a lot more than there was last time) and fires questions at saihara (‘is this saihara?’ ‘what happened to you??’ ‘do you even remember me?’) while saihara stays silent for the whole time thinking about how he really doesn’t want to be doing this.
-> eventually ouma decides he was wrong (again) to have put his faith in a guy- a demon- he only met once a month.. even if said demon gave him something to look forward to
-> when he finally gets to saihara alone he internally notes that saihara cant look him in the eye, but he finally speaks to tell ouma that now either himself or ouma will now die (saihara knows this is for sake of the sacrifice, but he can’t let ouma know else it won’t work)
-> ouma refuses to fight him again, expecting saihara to snap back into the meek demon from a year and some months ago, but rather than that happening saihara actually says something like “if you won’t kill me, I’ll have to kill you” and swings at him
-> even if ouma was on his full guard, he still would’ve been surprised by how strong saihara actually could be when he tried to fight- and of course saihara can’t stop now that he’s started but ouma hears the hesitation when saihara asks “are you going to kill me yet?” and gets annoyed that the whole time he spent with him and even akamatsu meant nothing. saihara smiles sadly knowing he’s achieving his goal but ouma thinks he’s smiling at the thought of dying and gets somehow even more annoyed
-> during their whole fight, insert “I’m alone, Ouma, and I will always be” line from saihara, “No amount of talking can convince me otherwise, Ouma. I’m sorry it took so long, but it was foolish of you to trust a demon you met only once” or something and yes it hurts saihara too but ouma’s staying silent and before saihara can continue, ouma fires back with “You’re right- you are meant to be alone. You were always meant to be that kind of guy” and stops dodging to start finally attacking- this is when saihara knows he’s pretty much achieved his target: sacrificing ouma’s trust in him
-> just as ouma swipes at him, saihara’s lil spell thing is activated that takes saihara back to the real world, disguised so people don’t see him as a demon. but now ouma thinks he’s just killed saihara (I just attacked him. and he is gone. i dont know what that light was but i must have just killed him. oh my god im a murderer.”)
-> saihara hiding in the forest to do the lil spell thing again but on ouma (all the time he spent saving on energy was worth it) so ouma gets transported to the real world too and immediately runs to tell akamatsu everything that happened
-> saihara trying to find to blend in with humans from what he remembers of how they act but he doesnt need to particularly eat he just needs a heck ton of sleep so he basically just lives in the forest now. he’s very sensitive to water so he actively stays away from it too (it wont kill him but it does make him sick). he’s still feverishly warm but not scalding and he also decides to work at a store to fit in more
-> ouma regretting what he did to saihara even though saihara hurt him first and realising he misses him
-> saihara ends up accidentally bumping into him at the store he works at that ouma conveniently steals from a lot (”Ouma, you’d make a good demon” “Nishishi! What do you mean? I’m a perfect little angel!”) and saihara gasping when he notices ouma’s unforgettable purple hair and cute smile.
-> ouma finding something familiar about this awkward new staff with the cute face and deciding he’ll visit the shop more often to see this stranger and not because said stranger might help him get over his demon crush
-> then they get to know eachother again for the 2nd time, and as much as this guy is really cute, he clearly knows more than he’s letting on... so of course ouma’s gotta now pay even more attention to him. just so he knows what the guy’s hiding. not cause he wants to know him.
-> one day saihara is sick from trying to protect himself from the rain (cause yk, water bad) so he stays in the forest instead of coming in to focus his energy on getting better and also not blowing his cover. ouma notices he isnt there on that day and asks other staff members where he lives and they’re all like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
-> it rains quite a bit after that, inevitably making saihara even more sick and in turn needing time away to himself, so ouma starts getting worried when saihara stops coming to work
-> saihara really wants to see him though, so one day he tries to drag himself to work in a terrible state where he’s actually almost cold for once and collapses after trying to run to ouma. ouma sees him and tells his manager he cant work nd takes him home himself where saihara wakes up confused
-> ouma lecturing saihara because he worried him and the way he fell reminded him of.. someone (demon shuu).. then he asks vague questions to saihara about if he’s ever met a demon and half-confesses to having met one himself multiple times and ending up falling in love and then probably killing them
-> saihara, in his tired state, tells him his story of how he was raised to believe he had no purpose other than to meet someone who would kill him, eventually finding that person but instead of looking at him with fear or anger he looked at him with admiration and playfulness, how the guy meant to kill him refused to and flirted w him instead. ouma has probably clicked on by this point but saihara continues to tell him he wanted to protect that guy with the power he had so he took time away from his first ‘job’ to find out how to be with him. saihara is probably shaking at this point while he continues telling him about how he found out he had to sacrifice the most important thing to him, so he “went and had a terrible argument with him one day and i ran away. but i’ve never stopped looking for him since, he showed me that even a demon like me can fall in love” (there’s the ✨grand confession ✨)
-> ouma saw it coming from the moment saihara started speaking, but that didnt stop him from being utterly paralysed. of COURSE saihara has to say “When I said you’d make a good demon I really wasn’t lying. Your hand is so warm it could fool even me” which possibly makes ouma completely combust before absolutely bolting out the door and calling akamatsu to tell her to get to his house (”AKAMATSU-CHAN I’M GONNA DIE RIGHT NOW IF YOU DON’T GET HERE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT THIS SECOND”)
-> while waiting for kaede, shuuichi explains that he needs to be Warm™ and immediately holds kokichi’s hold again, while the other’s having a gay panic.. and he doesnt know how to feel because on one hand, his beloved demon is.. right here, in the ‘flesh’, holding his hand, telling him he fell in love with him.. but on the other hand, that doesnt excuse the confusion and hurt he put him through back then, not being able to see him for a whole damn year..
-> ouma ignores all the feelings when akamatsu arrives where she’s brought water and blankets (just in case- i feel like shes the kind of friend who would do that) so saihara takes the blankets and ouma takes the water and she calms them both down and gets them to explain everything slowly and in their own time. its awkward esp for ouma who isnt particularly close with her, but they manage it in the end
-> they decide shuuichi literally cant live in the forest so of course now he has to live with ouma but akamatsu offers to help if it ever gets too much for ouma which obviously ouma denies. she leaves soon and its just them but ouma needs some time to himself to clear his head and he only returns late to see saihara asleep clinging onto akamatsu’s blanket with his life lmao so ouma sighs and brings him more. and if he kisses the sleeping demon’s forehead, nobody has to know
-> ofc its still very much awkward and it takes ouma getting used to having even just another presence in his home, let alone his sort-of-unofficial-demon-bf and saihara’s still sleeping a lot of the time but recovering
-> they probably establish their feelings for eachother properly when they’re more mentally prepared for it, and then 👨❤️💋👨 (they kiss) and are now actually legally boyfriends. i absolutely cannot let this end in angst so they’re happy and love eachother now yay the end
nngl. i talked about this with that same friend and I lowkey want to start writing an actual fic for it now that ive written... literally the entire plot, but if i do that it probably wont be out for a while bc i take 10 years to write lmao-- plus i hardly ever finish what i start so uh yeah.. but hopefully! im not even good at writing fic this is just the plot but yello

Lovely Eyes
Akaashi Keiji x Reader
Hurtful Truth: Not everyone gets the privilege to be loved by the same person twice.
Pt. 2 < Part 3 > Bonus Chapter
The scent of the burnt cake could be smelled throughout the house. You opened up your eyes immediately, broke free from the arms of your lovers when you remember that you put a cake inside the oven. Your feet dashed to the kitchen, turning it off and checking out the now brown cake.
Akaashi walked drowsily to follow you, and he was sleepy after the morning rendezvous that you two shared around half an hour ago. You were baking this morning when he suddenly wrapped his arms around your figure, pulling you to the bedroom once again, didn't know that you already put a cake inside the oven.
"Kaashi! Look at what you've done!" The cake in your hand was now burnt, you whined like a child as you look at the failed masterpiece, "You shouldn't have done that you know, doing it in the morning is a no from now on!"
The black-haired man could only chuckle and walk towards you, kissing your forehead as he stood in front of you. He didn't mind being yelled at, because he knew that it was just a protest, not that you were outraged towards him for real. When his lips grazed on your skin, it's like you forget why you even got angry at him in the first place.
It's been sixteen months since the incident, the incident when you lost the love of your life because of something that human couldn't control. You don't know how mother nature works their charms, but sometimes you didn't know either the event is a blessing or a curse. Maybe, even something in between.
The first three months were a living hell. Everywhere you go, you could always see him at the end side of your gaze. You still remember every syllable that emitted from his lips at your third year anniversary. The night when he said that he didn't love you anymore, made a significant impact on your life.
You loved Bokuto Koutarou for around ten years of your life, and it's something that anyone couldn't forcibly take it off from you so easily. For three months you were devastated, your eyes will always looking at your ring finger, the empty space still reminded you about the drastic change that you never thought would happen.
But you were not alone; you are never alone in this journey of life. There will always be someone who took care of you. Sometimes without you knowing, they are guarding you. And in this particular time, that guardian angel taking a form as your current lovers, Akaashi Keiji.
When one hundred days finally passed, you got the confession that has been held for ten years. Love is not on your radar after losing someone that you truly love to the painful reality. The fact that someone wouldn't stop loving you, made you thought about all of the possibilities if you have never become a Bokuto, but instead, having Akaashi as your last name from the start.
Are you going to still have those heartaches? Would you still crying at the night you were supposed to have fun after three years married to someone that you love? Will someone fall out of love from you as Bokuto did?
Then he came, throwing away all of the doubts. Turning you to always looking forward, forgetting the possibilities from the past and support you to strive for the best version of you. Akaashi Keiji couldn't love someone else once he falls in love, even though that you were out of his grasp before, the thought of loving someone else was just so wrong.
"Everything okay, Kaashi?" Both of you were currently on a night stroll together, enjoying the breeze and the company. You were standing at the top of the hill, wind stroking your cheek as he stood beside you.
You are beautiful, always be in his eyes. Your heart was always out of his grasp, but now, he feels like the world finally gave him the chance to have you. He took a step forward, removing the strand of hair on your face, tugging it behind your ears.
"Not really," He always speaks the truth to you, never hiding any kind of thought. That was actually what brings you two to trust each other so much. Because both of you would never lie to each other, "What are you thinking about falling in love?"
His question was catching you off guard. Akaashi knew you like you shared the same mind, so it's something that he would ask if he didn't feel so sure about it. And in this case, he didn't know for sure what lays inside your heart right now. You took a deep breath, looking at the scenery that unfolded in front of you. Heart beatings a little bit faster,
"The truth? I don't know." You raised your left hand in front of your face, "Right now? I want to wake up and think everything that happened in these past few months was just a dream. Bad dream." Longing smile could be seen from your face, "But actually, I don't know that I miss being Bokuto's wife, or I just miss the feeling to be loved by someone."
Akaashi closed his eyes for a moment, trying to compose himself. His mind still conflicted to either confess his love for you or just waiting for the right time.
But then, when is exactly the right time?
"I love you," You jolted when you heard the three words coming out from his lips, "I love you since you covered for me when I forgot to bring the homework to Miyano-sensei." He remembered the time when you style your hair into a ponytail, loving how your hair seems to bounce every time you moved, "I still love you even when you walked down the aisle with my best friend."
"Keiji..."
"And I still do, after all this time." Your eyes were glossy as he poured all of his love that finally emerged on the surface, "I love you for the longest time, and it never withers." All of those words were now absorbed in your mind completely.
How could someone love another person like this? Aren't they supposed to let them go when someone they love finally out of their grasp? Why didn't Akaashi take that chance? Why would a man like him love you, unconditionally? The man in front of you has been throwing all the love that he supposed to get from someone else that might be better than you.
But Akaashi Keiji only wants you, and he wouldn't love anybody else as long as he lives.
"I couldn't say that I love you too, Kaashi." You were telling the truth. One part of you really wants to say that you love him too, but the other part telling you to wait. It will only become a sweet lie if you say it now. Akaashi nodded at your answer, understanding your feelings as you said that. You took another step towards him, grabbing his hand that produced cold sweat, "But maybe tomorrow I will, or maybe even in an hour. We never know, right?"
"W-What are you trying to say, (Y/n)?" The gunmetal blue eyes looked at you with hope lingering inside. It's something that he never has after Bokuto proposed to you, hope. You gave him a sincere smile, trying to calm down the man that always been there for you. Someone that always love you even when everything's going downhill.
"I have a crush on you, that's for sure." You giggled, feeling like a teenager in love, "If I am a high schooler, I will tell you right now that I love you, Kaashi. But it's not reaching that stage yet." One of your palms was pressed on his cheek, "I need time to heal, and it will be hard coping with my emotion." Your eyes gazing into his loving eyes, "Are you going to be okay with that?" He closed his eyes, feeling the heat of your palm.
"I will take any chance that I have, (Y/n)." He leaned down to kiss the crown of your head, "And if it has the possibility to make you mine. Always." You let out a breath that you unconsciously hold. Then you jumped to his arms, feeling the warmth that started to engulf you. Maybe opening up your heart once again wouldn't be so bad. You just need to be patient as time will take you somewhere. Somewhere better for the two of you.
Here you were now, in the arms of someone that you love. His shirt wrapped your bare skin as his calloused fingers tracing your arms with adoration. You already forgot about the burnt cake that lay on the kitchen island. Since his confession, you have been giving him all of your attention. Remembering every detail and how his eyes never leave your figure.
He was so gentle from what you can conclude after living with him for more than a year. Akaashi will always walk on the dangerous side as you cross the road, he always waited for you when you went inside your office until you were out of sight, he will remind you when you were overworking yourself. Every little thing that he did finally grow the feeling inside your heart into something more.
Like what he promised, he never stops loving you. There were times when he tried to do so in the past years, but it never works. So he decided just to stop trying and embraced the blessing of falling for someone. At the end of the day, his thought will be filled with the memories of you. But now, you were with him to actually make a new memory every day. For him, it feels like a miracle.
"Are we going to watch the final tomorrow?" You looked up to search for his eyes, "We promised Bo to come after all, and I already tell my boss about it. But could you come?" He was now looking at you too, putting his forehead at the top of your hair.
"Hm, I already told everyone that I need to support my best friend on the match." He kissed your forehead before letting you go gently, "It's final tomorrow. We have to come earlier if we want to get the perfect seat." You were leaning on your counter as he grabbed a knife from the shelf, "Help me with this cake, love. We could still save it if we just cut out the top."
Giggling, you walked towards him and kissed his cheek gently before helped him to cut the cake. Like what he said, the inside was still perfect. It's just the outside that was already burnt. Every day, he would surprise you with a little affection and thoughtful act, making you fall harder to the man.
If it takes you the biggest heartbreak that you could ever have to feel his love, maybe, just maybe... Fate is not that cruel towards you.
***
You and Akaashi come around one hour before the match has begun. The whole arena has been filled with spectators. After all, the final is really filled with magnificent players. You got the seat on the front row as always, right near the MSBY spectators. As you wait for the match to start, you excused yourself from Akaashi to go to the restroom. Better go now than leaving in the middle of the match.
As you walked to the restroom, your thought was filled with excitement for the game. Today's final, MSBY will meet a team where they have Oikawa Tooru. After the grand king comeback from Argentine, almost every team want a piece of him. It's not that you didn't believe Miya Atsumu, it's just he needs to be more careful. The entire team need to be more cautious.
Deep in your thought, you didn't realise what stood in front of you. You bumped to someone, but he was tall that made you fall to the ground,
"What the-" The familiar voice made you looked up to see the one that you bumped to, "Whoa! Mom!" Your eyes twitched as you heard the nickname from the MSBY setter, "Sorry, sorry, let me help you." He extended his right hand to help you up, you reached for his hand and dusted your coat as you stood.
"It's not your fault, Atsumu-san." You gave him your usual smile, but that's enough to make him blush a little, "What are you doing here? Shouldn't you get prepared for the match?"
"Well, I do." His voice always filled with mischief, "But I want to stroll around first, letting go all the nervousness, you know?" You blinked, someone like Miya Atsumu could be nervous after all. Maybe the pressure of international opponent could do that, "What about you? Are you coming here alone?"
"Ah, I am here with Kaashi, of course. Akaashi Keiji." Miya widened his eyes a little as he saw your expression when you mentioned the name. It was the same expression from around a year ago every time you talked about Bokuto. He immediately shook the thought out of his mind, "Does everyone okay? How is Bo?"
Even if you were no longer his to begin with, you still cared for the hyperactive wing spiker. After all, you once vowed in front of everyone that you will always be there for him. And you are not someone who will back down from your promise under any circumstances.
"Bokkun will always be Bokkun, but he's alright now." You let out a long sigh, that particular owl couldn't be read sometimes. His mood swing is the worst, and no one could predict what possibly made him goes into the dejected mode. Miya's phone vibrates with a lot of messages, he opened it up and found everyone wanting him to prepare for the match, "Ah, I am sorry, but I have to leave."
"Sure! I know everyone will do their best today." You patted his arm, a little affection that you always give to everyone that you cared for, "Go! Don't let they release a search party just to find you!" You waved your hand as Miya nodded and gave you a little salute.
His long legs stride towards the court, but he turned to look at you one more time. Noticing something that made him widened his eyes more while you still smile and waved towards him, "Hey, (N/n)." You stopped your wave mid-air as he stood there not far from your figure. He gave you a sincere smile, something that rarely appeared on his face, "Congratulation."
Before you could answer him, he turned his head and rushed back to the court once again. Leaving you there with a little smile on your face as you realised what's the meaning behind his word. After that, there is no one you were close with that you bumped to. You saw Konoha and the other members from your high school and greet each other as you walked back to sit beside your lovers.
Not long after that, the match has begun. The entire arena was so loud, but somehow you could still hear Bokuto's voice as he let out his famous line. Noting your attention was solely focused on the match, Akaashi leaned his arms to met with yours, wanting to feel the warmth of your body when you two watch the entire set.
He never thought that he would be like this, hooked for your affection. Loving you is enough before, and when you finally let out the word to him, he feels that his life is completed. Akaashi never needed validation when it comes to the relationship. But as time goes by, he couldn't help but loving every affection that you gave. Because of that, he's becoming a little bit needy along the way.
Akaashi's hand grabbing your left hand and put it on his lap, tracing your finger, starting from your thumb. You realised what he's doing, so you kissed his head with your gaze still focused on the court. The delicate touch of his finger always brings a tingle on your heart. He suddenly moved the platinum ring that wrapped on your ring finger. You jolted, wondering why he moves it all of a sudden.
"It's nothing," He knew what's inside your mind, "It's just a little bit tilted, so I correct it." Akaashi kissed your hand and gazed at you. You too, couldn't help but take a look at your fiance. His eyes were so gentle as it falls to your face, faint smile plastering on his face. He can't believe that you would be his after ten years burying his feelings inside.
"What is it, Keiji?" He loves to hear his first name rolled from your lips, "Why are you looking at me like that?" You were actually embarrassed when he started to act like this—just silence and looking at you like there's no one else in this world.
"I love you," Your eyes widened, blush spread on your face as he said it so casually, "Thank you for giving me the chance, (Y/n)." It's like that day when he proposed to you. You were too dumbfounded to let out a word, but he just waited. He waited for minutes just for you, because that's just how much he loves you.
"I love you too, Keiji." He leaned in to kiss your forehead, "And thank you by waiting for me, even if I didn't give any sign of assurance before." His hand still grabbed yours, thumb caressing the back of your hand.
Since the night he confessed his love to you, he never backed down. Not even a little. Akaashi always believes that at the end, he will get his happy ending. When both of your hands interlocked for the first time, he promised he would hold you forever. No matter what happened in the future, he will always be there, loving you with as much as his heart could give.
The two of you were just having dinner in the house. Enjoying the moment together as you two celebrate the huge promotion that Akaashi got the day before. You were wrapped in a blanket with him in front of the fireplace. It's been nine months after he confessed his love towards you at the hill that one night, and everything was looking good for the two of you.
You were pouring a glass of wine that you bought months ago from your boss. But when you are going to give the glass to him, he took it and put it on the table beside him. His eyes suddenly look serious as he gazed it on you, you blinked, wondering the sudden change of atmosphere as you look deep into his eyes.
"(Y/n), I-" He gulped, feeling jittery all of a sudden. But when your hand engulfed him, it feels like he could conquer anything in his way, "I know it's only a year after what happened, and you may feel that this is too fast since we just date each other for like months ago. But, (Y/n) I-"
Akaashi closed his eyes, trying to calm his heart rate as you looked at him with eyes that he couldn't read, "I want you to be mine. God, I always want you to be mine, having my last name on yours..." He gulped, not daring to gaze in your eyes as he looked down to where your hands meet, "I love you too much, (Y/n), I-"
"Keiji," You put your finger on his chin, lifting his head so he will look at you, "Are you... proposing to me?" He bit his lip. Akaashi Keiji was never afraid in his entire life, but the possibility that you will reject him will be his biggest nightmare.
"Y-yes." He never stuttered, but here he was now sitting in front of you like an absolute mess. His black hair was sticking on his forehead because of the sweat that he produces. You didn't really know what to say after all. There's a moment when you are sure that you love Akaashi Keiji, and it grew larger every day. But you are afraid, afraid of another possibility of love.
Then you look at his gunmetal blue eyes, filled with love and adoration. The eyes that have been looking out for you since your high school life. The same eyes who saw every detail of you for the past ten years. The same eyes, who never stopped loving you even when you once belonged to his best friend.
And just like that, you couldn't help but said, "Take me as your wife, then."
He widened his eyes, those beautiful orbs taking one look at you before pressing his lips on yours. After all of these heartaches, he could finally embrace you as someone who will love him too. Both of you shared a lot of soft kisses the entire night, showering each other with adoration. His lips seldom leave yours, and you didn't even realise when he slipped the diamond ring on your finger.
The first set is won by the opponent, making you pout the entire time. Akaashi will give you a kiss on the forehead or squeeze your hand every time the opponent made a score. Your loving act towards each other didn't go unnoticed by a particular wing spiker.
MSBY was now taking a rest to wait for the second match. His golden eyes were searching for your figure and fall towards you. He needed your attention and the loving support that you always gave every time they were taking a break. But nothing prepared him for the sight that created in front of him.
Bokuto dropped his water bottle, too shocked as he saw his best friend kissing your forehead. You two looks so perfect together, hands intertwined and gazing on each other with loving eyes. It's like the oxygen has been pushed out from his body, he falls to the ground all of a sudden, resulting in your gaze to be fixed on him.
His entire team was now trying to find out what happened to the wing spiker. Your eyes were frantic, afraid that something has happened towards Bokuto. No matter what the circumstances are, you will always care and love him, even if it's not the same kind of love that you had for him a year ago. Akaashi patted your back, trying to make you calm down.
You jolted when you feel the vibration on your pocket, courtesy from your phone. When you look at the contact name, you answered it immediately.
"Could you come here now?!" Miya shouted at the other end of the line, "Fuck, I never saw Bokuto looks like this except from that dark days." You know so well what days that he meant, "Come here fast to the locker room near the stairs, please!"
"I am on my way." You are panicked, trying to say something on Akaashi. But when you turned to look at your fiance, he just grabbed on your arms and caressed it for a while to calmed you down.
"I will wait here, go help Bokuto-san." Hearing that, you composed yourself and nodded. Pecking his cheek before dashing out to the locker room. You found Miya Atsumu and Hinata Shouyou standing in front of the door. Their eyes showing relieve when their gaze falls on you. You nodded at them as they step aside to give you the way.
You opened up the locker room, hearing a painful gasp when you enter. Bokuto curled up on the corner of the room, gasping for air like it's not there. You ran to his side, pulling him to your embrace as you cradling him. Your fingers were stroking his hair that was now become a mess.
"I am here, Bo, I am here. You are not going through everything alone." He didn't talk; he just gasped for air. You didn't know what made him like this, but it hurts your heart so much to see him in so much pain, "Kou," You cooed his name again and again. His arms finally wrapped around you after a while, afraid that you will dissipate into thin air if he let it go.
"Why-" His voice cracked, "S-since when that you and Akaashi..." You bit your lips, now understand what made the man in front of you broke down like this, "I thought you love me." His fist clenched hard on your shirt, "I-I am so sorry, it's because I said that I didn't l-love you, right?" He sobbed, wetting your lap as his head was now lying on your stomach.
"Kou, I am sorry if I hurt you for loving Keiji." He knew he started to act selfishly again, just like what he always does before, "When you didn't love me anymore, I thought I would never love someone again." Bokuto listened to your statement, still sobbing here and there, "But he showed me that I could, Kou. You wish that for me, right?"
"Y-yes." He straightened his body to take a look at you, and that feels like the biggest mistake that he is ever done. There on your ring finger, lay an unfamiliar platinum ring with round cut diamond. For three years, a rose gold coloured ring was adorning there. It reminded him that you were no longer his, and he should remember that, "You two... You two are m-married?"
"No, Kou. Not yet." His golden eyes pierced into your soul. For the past months, he tried to find someone. But he still ended up with an empty bed somehow. He missed the warm that you always radiate every morning, "What is it, Kou? Why you-"
"You will leave me." It was the most painful truth that he ever realised, "Y-You will never have the time to spend with me. Either you or Akaashi, both of you will live happily ever after and I would never be there. I will be forgotten," He didn't tremble like before, but the tears were pouring non-stop, "I need you, (Y/n). I am sorry that I ever said that I didn't love you anymore, I-"
"Kou," You cupped his cheek, gazing at the eyes that were filled with hurt, "I would never leave you. You remember the vow that I gave on our wedding day?" He nodded at this, "I said that I would never stop caring for you, I will always be there for you every step of the way, and I will never stop loving you." Your thumb brushed away his tears carefully, "Just because it's not the same kind of love, doesn't mean that I will stop loving you."
Bokuto bit his lip, restraining the tears that still want to get spilt. He must accept this; it's what he wanted after all. For the past few months, he would lay on his bed, tracing the empty side that never filled with warm anymore. No matter how many women throw themselves for him, he just couldn't do it. Every time he gave someone a chance, something will nag at his heart, telling him that it was all wrong.
By the end of the day, he realised that no one else could love him like you do.
You were no longer belong to him, and he kept saying it inside of his head. He would never get the privilege to taste your love in his life ever again. It will be all poured for Akaashi Keiji. It's Bokuto decision to let you go after all, and maybe, having you there for him is enough.
"Okay." He stood up all of a sudden and pulled you up with him. His hand was now grabbing yours, golden eyes locked to your orbs, "Then look at me, okay?" His face showing the usual grin, "Cheer for me! Tell Akaashi to cheer for me too!" Your eyes were brimming with tears as you saw how much he has grown.
For the first time, you didn't need to tell him what to do. You didn't have to sugarcoat him with something. He just realised it all on his own. Somehow, seeing him like this feels like it was your achievement too.
"We will, Kou." You pulled your hand that was interlocked with him to be in front of your gaze, "So, win this! They all have been waiting for you!" Bokuto nodded, pulling you to his embrace one more time. He kissed the crown of your head before letting go,
"Thank you, for ever loving me." He gave you a grin, then bolted out to the door. Ready to come back to the match. You chuckled by his behaviour, feeling glad that maybe, everything will turn out alright after all. Then you follow his action, running towards the stands so you could see the man that will always have a special place in your heart.
Akaashi waved at you when his eyes finally found you on the entrance, you ran and sat down immediately. You gave the man beside you a long kiss, shocking him as you put your forehead on his for seconds,
"Everything's okay?" He asked you with concern lingering on his voice. You nodded with your eyes still closed, taking his hand in your lap.
"Yes," You gave him one more peck on his lips, "Everything is okay now." He smiled to hear your answer. Both of you were now focused on the game, still holding each other hand.
The commentator announced the come back of Bokuto Koutarou to the game. There he is, standing on the sideline while waiting for the right time to go back to the court. Pride engulfed your heart as you saw him there, looking as serious as ever.
Bokuto fingers fiddling with a rose gold wedding ring that he usually put on his pocket, a token that reminded him of your unconditional love towards himself. When the coach told him to come back inside, he kissed the ring and prayed for the best before tugging it back inside his pocket.
Miya and the others have been waiting for him, glad to see their ace looking like he was back to his prime condition as he strode back inside the court. Bokuto looked at your direction. You were cheering on him while Akaashi gave him a smile and a thumbs up. Satisfied, he gazes back to the court, grinning wild when he remembered the two important people in his life.
Akaashi Keiji becomes his best friend since high school, always looking up for him until today. He was the one who introduces you, the love in his life, to be with him. But fate was always unpredictable as he must let you go, to be with someone who could love you back just like how much you love him, and now, you found it on the black-haired man.
He knows that you will always love him, and he realised that it's alright if it's not the same love as they used to. Because he knew, you poured all of your love to his best friend. Bokuto was all out of love without you, feeling so lost at first. But when you remind him about your vow, he realised that to have you in his life was enough, even if it means you will belong to another person.
It's time for Bokuto to serve, he was silent and walked to the right and left, looked to everyone on the stands then started to clap. You know what is he going to do. So you clapped, as loud as you can. You nudge your fiance to clapped louder, he shook his head at your excitement but following your act at the end.
The entire arena was now clapped for him. It was something that he always loves to do since years ago. He did it because he felt like the world are there for him, and knowing you there clapping too, feels like the entire universe is rooting for his serve. So he threw the ball to the sky and jump, hitting the ball hard to the opponent's court. It was so fast that suddenly the ball has landed perfectly. Bokuto just scores a point.
Everyone was silent, too shocked with how powerful the ace could serve. So you stood and clapped, making a chain of sound to the entire arena. You smiled so wide, tears brimming in your eyes because of how proud you are with him. He grinned and absorbed the energy from all of the spectators, raising both of his hands to the sky.
"HEY HEY HEEYYY!!!"
And maybe, just maybe, everything will be alright after all.

Hi! Could you do some hcs for the brothers reacting to seeing MC wear their glasses for the first time?
Aww, that would be so cute. I love writing fluff for the brothers. I also added some hcs for how they would deal with an MC who wears glasses regularly. As a person who owns glasses, it can be kind of annoying to have glasses for a lot of reasons and I based it on that.
Thanks for the request!
*gender neutral MC*
————————————
The Brothers’ reaction to MC wearing their glasses for the first time:
Lucifer:
-Lucifer being Lucifer didn’t give you much of a reaction when he saw you wearing glasses for the first time
-However, inside he was quaCKing
-Why must you be this cute?
-He’s completely mesmerised
-Not to mention, the glasses made you look really elegant and professional
-He is strangely turned on by this
-He complimented your glasses and briefly mentioned how good they looked on you
-Besides all that, since we all know Lucifer is the mother hen in the House of Lamentation
-He would probably be reminding you to put on your glasses when he sees you straining your eyes
-Or when he notices they need to be cleaned
-Sometimes, he finds them lying around and wipes them clean for you before placing them in your room
-“Lucifer, I can do that pretty damn well myself y’know?”
-He knows those glasses are not only important but necessary for you at times so he won’t tolerate it if any of his brothers break them by accident
-One time, Mammon tried selling them and got chased around the house by Lucifer which I’m sure was not a fun experience for either
Mammon:
-W h a t
-No, seriously, what?
-You gave glasses???
-Since when? Why do you need them?? Are your eyes broken?? *Gasp* can human eyes brea-
-It took a while but you explained to Mammon why exactly you needed your glasses
-He would make fun of you in a non offensive way
-“Ahaha, ya look like such a dork MC. Pfffttt.”
-In reality, he actually thinks that they are really cool, especially if you have any patterns or different colours on them
-He watches in pure fascination as you wipe them using a cloth and contact lens solution
-Only pokes fun at you because he means the opposite
-Is the type of person to grab your glasses, put them on himself before asking you how he looks
-He likes to joke about how serious you look with glasses on
-Please don’t let him look after your glasses
-He’ll break them in under two minutes
-Will get really fired up if someone else were to tease you about wearing glasses
-“Excuse you! Do ya know who this is? This is my human and they are the most amazing thing that’s ever happened to me, glasses or not. And ya don’t have the right to throw any insults at them because you’re not exactly good looking yourself y’know? Maybe you need some glasses since you clearly can’t see how-“
-Cue an hour long rant about why you’re amazing
Levi:
-You pulled out your glasses while playing Mario Kart with him
-He was amazed
-You have glasses? That’s so cool!
-Bonus points if you had the design of any kind of anime on them
-Of course, he wouldn’t be willing to say this to your face because he’s still a tsundere
-“You look like a bigger normie than you already are while wearing those.”
-“Thanks Levi.”
-“I-I didn’t meant it like that!!”
-Asks if he can hold them from time to time
-He doesn’t try them on or anything but he likes to admire them sometimes
-Why are all of them acting as if they’ve never seen glasses before??
-He thinks you look really cute and dorky with those on, he can’t help but stare at you every once in a while
-You remind him of a variety of anime girls who wear glasses
-But you look much better than any of them in his opinion
-Will openly glare at people who insult you for wearing glasses
-Knows your glasses can be very fragile so he probably places them next to his Ruri-chan collection to make sure they’re safe
Satan:
-He was stunned into silence
-He asked if you could come over to read a book or two with him at the library
-He certainly didn’t expect you to pull out a pair of glasses and put them on when you came to sit next to him
-pleasantly surprised
-I feel like he would be one of the least to make a big deal out of it
-He wouldn’t tease you or anything
-But he loves complimenting you and your glasses a lot
-Knows that every time you put your glasses on, you’re paying attention to the book he’s showing you
-It also makes you look even more independent and intelligent than you already are
-If you were to ever lose them, he would probably be the first one to find them
-Like Lucifer, would probably not deal with anyone’s bullshit on the matter
-No one will make fun of you for wearing glasses if they know what’s good for them
-He often takes them off your head when he feels you’ve been up reading for too long
-Probably has extra cloths and solution on him at all times in case you ran out
-He will always be prepared for everything when it comes to you!
Asmo:
-HELLLLL YESSSSSS
-He finds people who wear glasses so damn attractive
-Is it even a surprise at this point?
-He fusses over you constantly
-This one’s also horny
-Bitch went shopping the next day and bought an identical pair for himself
-So now both of you look FABULOUS
-So many selfies!
-He knows it must be a bit difficult to wear glasses since you need to take care of them all the time
-So he relieves you from a burden and buys you a bunch of quality made cloths to clean them
-Will proudly show you to everyone (before proceeding to pull out his own glasses to accompany yours)
-He finds himself wanting to kiss you a lot when you have them on
-If anyone says anything to you about those glasses, he will personally take offence
-“What did you say? Did you just say that we have the most stunning pairs of glasses you’ve ever seen? Did you say we are the prettiest people you’ve seen all day? Because I know you did not just say my lovely partner’s glasses are ‘weird’. I’ll have you know-“
-This one also likes to rant
-Subtly hints about how you should wear glasses more often
Beel:
-He didn’t notice at first
-He was concentrating on his food
-But then, he sensed that you were in the kitchen with him and he looked up
-He almost choked on his cheeseburger, mind you
-Actually he almost dropped the whole platter of food on the ground but he didn’t because Avatar of Gluttony skills baby
-He immediately thinks about how you’re the most precious thing he’s ever seen in his life
-Blush blush blush
-Almost dies when you ask him what he thinks of your glasses
-“They’re really nice. You look very pretty.”
-pls give this boy all the happiness in the world
-He can’t keep his eyes off you at times
-He loves it when you wear them because he genuinely loves how you look with them on
-He is awfully gentle and careful with them if you ever ask him to look after the pair
-Y’know, since he has such big hands
-He’s scared he might crush them
-Likes watching you clean them, it’s sort of therapeutic for him
-He asks a lot of questions about them and why you need them because he is genuinely curious
-He’s really comforting when other people make fun of your glasses
-He just needs to stand over them and glare down at them until they stop
-And then he gives you lots of compliments because Beel is a sweetheart and you can’t convince me otherwise
Belphie:
-He really acted like he couldn’t care less at first
-OK you have glasses, so what?
-But his heart was threatening to burst inside
-Damn it, why must you do this to him?
-He teases you whenever he gets the chance and that’s whenever he’s awake
-“Are those to make you look smarter than you actually are?”
-He doesn’t mean any of it
-He just wants a reaction out of you
-As much as he wants to deny it
-Belphie is still a bit curious about the human world and their antics
-So he’ll ask you lots of questions about your glasses
-He realises that having glasses can be a bit of a hassle so he offers to clean them from time to time
-He’s so straightforward about how much he likes seeing you with your glasses on, he will bluntly ask you wear them more
-God forbid anyone say anything remotely bad about you or your glasses
-He will hunt them down and kill them himself, despite his laziness
-He would be totally impressed if you had a cool space design on it!

MINNIE SENPAI!! blease do E, I, K, L, N, O, W, Z for Leo? 🥺💖 (i might have gone overboard, so feel free to choose the ones you like the most fhdgk)
Haha, welcome welcome!! I’m honored kouhai, please don’t worry! 💖💖💖 I hope you enjoy this post~
Under a cut for length, yet again LOL
Fluffy ABC headcanons listed here for requests!
E = Emotions (how does he express emotion around her?)
Bold of you to insinuate Leonardo has emotions that aren’t imposed against his will HAHAHA. Just kidding, but he does have a hard time not clowning and hiding what he’s feeling. Say it with me kids, repression. That being said, I think he will always have a hard time expressing himself without hesitation in his relationship. His first instinct is to soothe and protect; he doesn’t really know how to put himself first, very few people have ever cared to put him first in his life. One of the hardest things about being capable with the mental acuity of a blade is that everyone just kinda assumes you'll be fine (compounded by the fact that he feels burdensome asking for help). And while there’s no doubt he can take care of himself, everybody needs a daijoubu from time to time ;-;. I like to hope that his MC will be able to see through to the truth of his feelings over time--even if he doesn’t openly enumerate them--before he can smother his emotional needs into silence. Furthermore, I think he would be a little more open/obvious about the depth of his love over time because, at some point, those feelings would accumulate to the point of overflow.
With Leonardo, vulnerability is a slow burn; he will reveal what he’s thinking someday, but today is not that day. Have patience, be gentle with his absolute clown self-neglect, try to meet him halfway; that trust will inspire him to be everything he thought he never could be for someone else.
In the meantime:
One of the key signals when it comes to Leonardo is to pay attention to when he’s seeking to spoil her. If he’s being extra uwu, that’s a surefire sign he’s Coping™ by channeling those more negative feelings into making her happy. He thinks the best way to handle The Bad Feels and/or concern for her is to redirect that energy into something constructive, and what better outcome could there be than her pouting or giving him that dazzling smile of hers?
Honestly, with Leonardo, he tends to convert emotion into action--she will know the warmth of his love long before he ever says it out loud.
He has a hard time articulating his feelings, so asking him to say them outright might be hard on him--it might not be the best immediate go-to. Spoil him out of the blue, instead. She’ll seek him out and just sit in his lap and cuddle for a nap sessh completely without warning, hold him tight so that he knows she’s here no matter what. She’ll indulge his cute needy moments and lounge in bed all morning together, hold his hand first when they go out, take charge in the bedroom; she’ll show him he’s wanted and needed before he can even think to doubt himself. Murmur compliments to him, make him things he loves to eat, give him a back rub unprompted. It’s the simple awareness of what he enjoys and the execution of it before he can prepare that utterly decimates him into revealing the feelings he keeps under tight control.
He is a lover that thrives on spontaneity and burning, silent consideration for the person he cherishes. The most adorable thing about this is that he is absolutely lost when the same tactic is used against him, he’s utterly defenseless to it!! (look at me. He has zero emotional object permanence. The mere prospect that somebody would worry about him first would send him into shock. And remember: the way people give love can often be the most powerful way they receive it, too.) The sacred texts!! She can use them to make him smile that smile that lets her know he’s an absolute goner for her without the need for words; the smile that says “it will always be you. It can only ever be you.”
When he’s happy, he literally just spoils her with more energy and teasing--expect a lot of wild fun and laughter when he’s in a good mood. He will have exceptionally tender moments now and again (say after a bad nightmare of losing her, for example) where he won’t say anything at all, just holds her close. He needs to know that she’s still here, that she’s okay. It is a rare and huge act of emotional trust; MC’s understanding and her easy proximity in these moments mean the world to him. When he’s distant and evasive, that is the time to give him some space before wedging her way inside. She won’t let him sit and stew in abysmal feelings; he has a bad habit of punishing himself too much or lingering on unhappy moments in his life. Despite how he seems he takes things incredibly seriously--to the point where he exhausts himself.
When he’s jealous and feeling petulant, he will not hesitate bitch and will get surprisingly grumpy. She’ll coo at him and reassure him that he’s the only one for her, and he’ll calm in the circle of her arms. Fun bonus: he’ll be embarrassed/mortified about being out of control later and she has ENDLESS fun teasing him just a little, even better if he punishes her with a good bangarang. Anger and irritation are emotions he tends to leave be, but if someone directs any kind of threat to MC (or an innocent in general) every trace of his jovial nature dissolves in milliseconds. He is swift, decisive, and deadly when he’s belligerent; he is the last person to push too far. He will often regret it later or worry about scaring MC, but it really does only happen once in a great while. She always reassures him that she knows he only did what he felt he had to in the moment.
You can just hear the Leonardo stan in me, lord jesus
I = Injury (how would he react if she got hurt?)
OH GOD KILL ME FUCKING SOFTLY AUGHGHGHGHGGH
I think it would depend on the injury. If it’s something like a papercut or a scratch, he’ll just be like “yare yare cara mia, be a little more careful next time, yeah?” Will bandage her up and disinfect because he knows enough about medicine to be cautious. Plenty attentive, will probably tease her about being a klutz and/or tell her to ask for help next time. Everything you would expect from Leonardo, essentially; equal parts light-hearted and responsible.
NOW WE GONNA GET SPOICY
If the injury is much more intense--say a broken limb, or deep gashes, so on and so forth--I see Leonardo being very, very grim. His lips would be pursed into a firm line, blanched white from the pressure, and his first step would be to get her out of the danger at any cost to himself. Following his ability to get her to a safe place, he would begin to tend the wound as gently as possible, asking questions to gauge the severity with single-minded concentration. “Where does it hurt? Rate the pain, describe what it feels like. Can you move the injured limb?” He will use whatever he has at his disposal to minimize her suffering if he can’t get her to a doctor immediately. If she requires treatment from someone else, he will be beside himself the entire time; chain-smoking, pacing, running his hands through his hair nonstop. He has ants in his pants until he sees her with color in her face, eyes bright again.
May I offer: They are 100% that couple (in which Leonardo is the one that falls asleep at her bedside) that’s like “you look like shit.” “look who’s talking, stupid.” and they just start laughing, mutually relieved.
During her recovery, he will be incredibly gentle but also subliminally alert. Anything she needs, she gets. If she tries to return to a normal pace of life too fast, he is straight up just picking her up and putting her back in that recovery bed. He ain’t playin’--don’t test him on this. He’s usually pretty easygoing, but he will snap at anyone who isn’t careful with her in this state. He will not take any further risk to her life. (He’s not usually brittle, but under severe conditions he can be.) He’ll tease her from time to time, but it’s much more mild than usual; he’s too consumed with concern to let her get worked up. He’s never really had to deal with a prolonged state of physical helplessness personally, but he’s seen enough in his life to know it can be really taxing on a person’s mind. There will be a thin veneer of calm, only there to keep her relaxed and to ensure the stability of her mental health. He knows that if he shows too much distress, he’s only going to worry her further--and that’s the last thing he wants. He will spend the majority of his time acquiring as many distractions as humanly possible, even if he has to be the distraction; anything to get her mind off of darker things.
When she’s back to normal, he’ll still be on alert for a short while before he goes back to his usual clowning self; might be a little more protective and cautious than usual, or be a little paranoid about the specific thing that caused her harm. (No Leonardo, we need kitchen knives--how else are we going to cut the carrots?? Please relax.) He doesn’t want that kind of heart attack again anytime soon;;;;
Honestly, it’s very likely that MC will have to be the one to remind him that she’s fully recovered--and not quite so fragile--well after she’s returned to the normal pace of life.
K = Kisses (how does he like to kiss her?)
Mah heart, mah soul
When it comes to kisses, Leonardo will vary extensively. Will give her teasing pecks intended to make her grab hold of him and force him to linger, smirking into the kiss as she’s instigated to deepen it. When he’s feeling particularly overwhelmed with feeling--say when he’s jealous or frustrated--his kisses will be dizzying; sucking on her tongue and nipping at her lips, caging her against him as he unleashes all of the desire that was building inside him. The intent will be to drown her in passion. Lazy kisses before/after a nap, where he just wants to revel in the heat of her for a moment--express his affection on a whim--before dozing off. And last, but certainly not least, he will kiss her with the express intent of marking her. Due to his inability refusal to bite her, he seeks to relieve that instinct with hickeys all over her body (most frequently around the chest and neck, sometimes along her thighs and hips when he has fun downtown).
L = Love (how does he show her that he loves her?)
This man is Acts of Service through and through when it comes to showing his love. He is exceptionally observant and sensitive to the feelings of others, so the second he sees her in need he is already seeking an externalized solution. His usual modus operandi is to enact his love as covertly as possible; he doesn’t want her feeling guilty for troubling him. That being said, if he has to be direct--he will be. He won’t ever force her, but he will remind her that he is here and that he wants to help more than anything else. If she needs time on her own he’s happy to give it (even if he pouts and fidgets restlessly the whole time). His most acute expression of love is his reliability: taking care of people is the first way he knows how to express affection.
While that tends to be his primary method, it by no means insinuates that he won’t show affection in other ways. If he teases her, it’s because he wants her attention more than anything but is far too shy to say it directly (is he a middle schooler of a lover? Yes). More to the point, asking for her time and her attention is a way that he expresses love because it means he trusts her enough to know the signs, fulfill those needs, and realize that he meant no harm with his nonsense. Though it may sound odd, his desire to rely on her a little (insert is for me? meme) is his way of showing her he’s letting her in, and that’s a very real form of love considering how Herculean an effort it is for him to rely on someone else. It’s the same reason he will sometimes make his room an even bigger disaster zone than usual. He has every intention of cleaning up after himself, he just wants her to bust in and start fussing over him LMAO (MC: WHY ARE YOU LIKE THIS LEONARDO?! Meanwhile Leonardo, an idiot full of uwus at the sight of his beloved exasperated, sitting in a pile of trash: Just according to keikaku)
As odd as it may sound, it’s almost like a weird reverse damsel in distress sort of dynamic? He carefully constructs situations where she can offer him help with the express purpose (and hope) that she will care enough to bust past his enfeebled defenses. It’s so oddly demure for this enormous punk of a man, but I find it adorable ;-;
Other ways he loves to show how he feels is to take her on trips or on little adventures. One of his favorite things to do is to watch her take in places he knows like the back of his hand--or even places new to him--with all the gleeful excitement of a little kid. It just warms him down to the marrow, and makes him have so much more fun than he ever could alone to see her buzz around nonstop. If he can encourage her to relax and take some time for herself in the process, to live for herself a little (she’s all too giving) then he considers the entire endeavor a success. All the effort is worth it if she can remember their time together with a smile Must You Hurt Me Like This, Leonardo.
One form of love that he will behead me for revealing is that he also sketches her all the time in his notebook, and will look to those little moments he’s captured whenever he’s feeling down or she’s not around.
He will have times where, if he can’t convey something properly with his actions or through making love, he will level with her. He will take the time to try to explain his feelings with accuracy, and in these moments he is both sincere and heartfelt. While it is a more rare expression of love for him, it is earth shattering when he does. Not only because his feelings run so deep, but also because these moments are unmistakably raw. Leonardo knows that vulnerability is a simultaneous boon and bane; it can inspire so much mutual joy, but it can also mean the exposure of lifelong wounds. It means acknowledging that these feelings are real. Even if she never takes advantage of the truth, he is aware of how precarious that position can be the more intense this love gets. It means facing how hollow he will feel when she's gone--something he works very, very hard to look away from.
(A related addendum because I have brainworms: The reason that people love and trust Leonardo is not primarily based in his intellect, fairly natural charisma, or good looks (though they are very compelling elements of his person). I think what people really see is how--though Leonardo sees through to the truth of peoples’ hearts in seconds--he keeps their secrets and treats them with so much respect/gentleness. It’s this odd capacity to be seen without feeling exposed that makes him such a remarkable and interesting man, and why he grows so close to everyone’s hearts. People feel understood without the need for words, feel cared for without a second thought. That being said, I think he needs someone who is similar. A person who sees all that he is on the surface, but barring that forges deeper still to find and cradle those parts of him that still need so much healing/care.
There’s a reason one of the greatest hits to his heart in his MS--one of the moments MC most powerfully gets through to him--is when she essentially says “Don’t give me that. Nobody ever gets used to loss. When something hurts, it hurts.” Whether she realized it or not, she penetrated straight to his heart with those few words. The truth is often much simpler than we might assume, and no matter how much experience one has with certain emotions--particularly grief and loneliness--no amount of experience makes them hurt any less. We only grow better at concealing or coping with age...)
N = Nightmare (what is his worst fear?)
I have a list (from Comte). I keep them alphabetized.
Jkjk, but if I’m honest I think this man has a good amount of fear inside him. I’d say the highest ones up there would absolutely be losing MC very suddenly, or being the reason--whether directly or indirectly--she gets hurt (like if his familia came after her to get back at him? he would be devastated).
If it is a timeline where he does choose to turn her, he’s beside himself at the prospect of the turning process going horribly wrong. It’s an unpredictable transition, and if she were to come back mentally broken or in constant pain (immortal wounds/aberrant) I think it would really fuck him up emotionally. He would blame himself without a doubt ;-; and that’s assuming she doesn’t hate his ass for the rest of eternity if it does go well (Leonardo I am begging you to use one brain cell)
O = Oddity (what is one quirk he has?) This one’s just a crack hc so if you were taking me seriously for any amt of this post, this is my suggestion that you stop
Leonardo is a man of many idiosyncrasies; among them an incapacity to dance and writing in a mirrored hand.
Another one is his absolute hatred for mint. One of Comte’s favorite things to do to mess with Leonardo is to stuff the drawers in his desk with peppermint candies to ward off his old friend and make him stop sleeping under his desk (like how people will use salt for demons!). He will also drink mint tea if he’s feeling particularly irritated with Leonardo’s antics, like if he’s received a ton of letters from Leonardo’s familia. Tells him to come to his office and the place is SUFFUSED in the scent of mint. Comte is just sitting at his desk with the stack, wearing that incorrigible look like “If I must suffer, so must you.”
One time--before MC was aware of this quirk--she had some chocolate that had mint in it after dinner. Leonardo kissed her without knowing (he came in late) and literally died where he was standing; he was biting his tongue to keep from gagging. MC just o: ???? because she’s never seen him make that grimace, especially after sharing a kiss. Comte was in fucking tears laughing at the head of the dining table while Napoleon and Sebastian were both fighting a smile--Arthur was outright wheezing. Isaac, blushing and coughing lightly into his fist, offers the explanation that Leonardo hates mint-flavored things and the scent of it makes him queasy.
W = Warrior (how does he feel about her fighting? Would he fight for her, beside her, etc?)
Man, this one’s tough, but if I’m honest I think he would be conflicted. On the one hand, he thinks it’s badass and hot as all fuck that she knows how to hold her own in a brawl; he can’t deny it’s sexy and reassuring (he has to resist the urge to gaud her into punching him). But. That knowledge also comes with a lot of concern. Was she in a place or around people that never once looked after her? Or was it a safety precaution? He will think deeply about the implications of her capabilities, and ask about it openly if he can’t deduce the reasons from afar. He will see it as very important information in regards to how to look after her properly.
That being said, I don’t think he would let his MC fight unless there was literally no other conceivable choice (say she was attacked while he wasn’t there or before he could intercept the blow). He would literally rather fall on a sword than see her get hurt. He’s durable and used to pain; he’d rather suffer and heal fast than see her sustain a single scar or bruise. Even if it makes her angry, he’ll take a hit and ask her to stay behind him every single time without fail. He’ll accept her frustration about it and will feel that it is perfectly valid to be annoyed with him. It still won’t make him budge, though.
Z = Zen (what makes him feel calm?)
Naps and lingering in bed well after morning with MC make this man happier and calmer than anything this world has ever seen. He loves that in those moments they aren’t thinking about anything else but each other, and he can indulge in the certainty of her presence in his life and so close to his heart. He can use the excuse of drowsiness to be tender, making love with a slow, devastating build to pleasure--hand entwined with hers against the sheets.
Failing that, he goes to things that stimulate his senses to find calm--he can’t really relax if his hands and/or mind aren’t occupied (i.e. cigarillos lmao). It’s why he’s often in the library; he’s always seeking new information and conundrums to sort out mentally if he doesn’t have the energy to go out and about. If he’s in his room he’ll be drafting diagrams, coming up with new concepts and architectural schematics, even making trinkets for MC or fixing something in the mansion. If he needs a change of scene or has the spoons, he’ll make a trip to town to help people with any problems that need solving, or find some excuse to go looking for and tease MC HAHA (he’s a little shit, but he’s our little shit úwù)
