//not askmacan
hello 👋
so i just wanted to make a post talking about housamo for a second because its kind of important for people to know this since im running this ask blog
i enjoy gatcha games as much as the next large man enjoyer, but the actual format of gatcha games give me lots of anxiety...
the need to constantly be on top of the game every day and to get the best pulls is pretty stressful and i cant keep up with it. especially since real actual money is involved in pulling the right summons and i cant spare a lot of coin.. i gotta eat, pay bills, and taxes too.
irl im very busy with mannnny things and this is also partially why I dont answer asks on a regular basis. i absolutely love macan and nomad, and im not planning on giving up managing this blog or slowing down more, but you all need to realize that i simply cant keep up with housamo and its constant growing cast of hot guys, or the expanding lore.
i just like these two goobers because they have fun personalities on top of being big titty kitties
so if i ever post something that is "out of character," unfitting, or wrong within the cannon... well, you'll just have to take me to court for that...
i am still working on the translations of macan's quests, but holy shit theres a LOT of dialogue, and I am not a linguist, nor do i know Japanese in the slightest. in doing this i was hoping to understand the character a little bit better and also give everyone the chance to enjoy the quests like i want as well
but jeez.. its confusing 😐
back to the topic, although this sounds sort of stupid, i really hate when people tell me im not playing the character right.
im playing the character as best as i can given what i know about them, and any other complaints can be sent directly to Gamma theirself because i will ignore them.
please dont tell me im doing it wrong, because believe it or not, im not actually a big beefy jungle man tiger who'll eat you, and i haven't been in the past, so other than what ive picked up on through the game and the wiki i dont have the capacity to like... live the life of what is essentially two other people and make interesting, realistic narritives based off of an ask from annon that says "step on me."
i try because it's fun.. but telling me im doing it 'wrong' takes the fun out of it for me and leads to some shitty dialogue.
so dont do that
i cant do it perfectly
but i can make it fun for you to interact if you make your ask pallettable or like... dont threaten me.
so if you read all that, you get a gold metal, and i appreciate it
i will continue doing asks, but ill be more selective about what i respond to and filter out the asks that either dont inspire any kind of response or are just straight-up rude..
thanksss

Thanks for the tag everyone. I had a few ppl tag me
Here's my tags~ @lulu-the-smol-floof @weird-profiterole @vampiricpancake @spoopy-fish-writes sorry if you've already been tagged
What was your first impression of the game? Is this the first Cybird game you've ever played?
Ikevamp is my first real Otome game. I casually played some others on pc but never got ADDICTED to them. I was very confused by the lay out at first and confused about how all the routes weren't released and I thought I had to unlocked them by reading certain routes bc I didn't join the fandom space for a few months
Who was the character you liked most in the beginning, and is he still your fave?
Will is the reason why I downloaded the game. Him and Charles go back and forth between being my faves
How you picked your first route, and whose route was it? Was your favorite suitor available when you first started playing?
So I had just gotten over a 2 year break up and got kicked out of the place I was living and was in London for a few months, and I was on a HUGE Shakespeare kick. So I went on Google Play and searched Shakespeare and Ikevamp came up and I've been here since
An unavailable route you're looking forward to:
ITS OBVIOUSLY CHARLES
A character you thought would be different than how he is:
Vlad. The man kinda sucks ngl. But his route is top tier
Is there a suitor who you used to dislike, but eventually changed your opinion about?
Theo maybe? I don't know if I would say dislike..more like uninterested..and then obsessed
Do you remember your first story event?
I didn't do story events for the first few months because I was a little confused on the layout of the game. So I don't have a single clue.
Have you ever spent money on the game? Have you tried the free diamonds offers?
I've spent minor money. Mainly on birthday stories. I can't be bothered to try to free diamond offers
Do you have a favorite avatar item? Is it a plushie or maybe a unique hairstyle?
Maybe my Syndicate AU Isaac sticker. I fought for him.
Have you ever bought merch of your favorite ikevamp character?
I have so many badges and bromides. I love clear bromides
Have you ever mistakingly spent your stamina not in the story event?
So many times I don't want to talk about it. Which may be another reason why I gave up on story events for a while
What's the luckiest you've ever been when it comes to the gacha? What about your most unlucky memory?
Getting Will's wedding card from a gatcha token at random. It may have been part of his birthday gatcha pull. Not sure. Unlucky? Anytime I pull Arthur
The slowliest you've ever completed a route vs the quickest:
I read Will's route in one day. I saved up enough story tickets. I'm doing the same with Charles. When a new route comes out I use my daily 5 tickets everyday, so the normal one chapter a day
Do you use your 5 free chapter tickets daily?
Only when there is a new route. I've reread some routes, but I tend to forget to read daily otherwise
A moment in a route that made you cry and a moment in a route that made you laugh:
I WILL NEVER FORGET. I was on a trip for work when Theo's route was released. I was at the end of his route and I was in my really fancy hotel room crying over this man. FULL ON CRYING. Vincent also caused me to cry. There's another route or two that I cried but I can't remember which ones. Laugh??? All I can remember is the most recent thing with Faust when its him and theo fighting and Charles and Vincent are eating pancakes
Who is your favorite pureblood vampire?
Def Leonardo. I'm hoping Galileo is a pureblood
Do you have a favorite CG? What about a favorite card?
SYNDICATE AU ISAAC. That card is what caused me to simp for the man and I will never shut up about it. The story itself ended up being a disaster but it is still one of my favorites
Any famous historical figures you wished were in ikevamp?
I fully believe we deserve an American to add a little more chaos to the bunch. Poe would be amazing but I'd be upset he isn't what I imagined so they better not take him from me. And at this point Salai is canon. I don't care
What card is currently on your home screen in the game?
Charles' 2nd birthday card where he is showing you his belly button piercing. The other two are Charles and Faust buddy card, and Leonardo's King of Vampire card bc I wanted to read the voice lines
What do you think about the suitors' pets? Which one is your favorite?
We deserve more pet content and until we get that I will be supplying everyone with some. Also Puck. Obviously. But I do really love Brush, he just has a lot of writing possibilities bc little thumbs
Tumblr media

Goromi Character Story
I really liked this one even if it was a pain in the ass to translate. Damn all that kansai slang! I have some pics to go with this one unlike the Goromi Event where I forgot to take any screencaps.
Character stories are split into three parts with a fight in each part, and this one will be a little more paraphrased because there’s a lot of back and forth dialogue that doesn’t matter too much. Here’s Goromi’s card!
Tumblr media
Summary: Turns out it takes several days for Kiryu to actually show up to club SHINE to meet Goromi (he’s busy!) so Goromi spends her time working there and taking care of problems. She’s not the number one hostess for nothing!
<Part 1> <Majima Goro, as Goromi, has been working at club SHINE for several days now> The shop manager has been having to deal with this and he doesn’t know what to do.
Tumblr media
Majima shows up again, as usual, and the manager fumbles over himself on whether to say Majima or Goromi
Tumblr media
He asks if Kiryu has shown up yet and Majima complains before heading to the back to get changed, where Goromi continues to complain that she’s a good woman and Kiryu is a horrible lazy bum for standing her up for so long. She’s bored to death! (I wonder, does Majima leave the Goromi outfit at the club or take it with home each time?)
A rowdy customer comes in and makes a scene and Goromi steps in to wallop on him, because she’s bored and he spilled a drink on her dress.  <Fight Happens> Goromi wins, easily, and makes him leave his wallet. The manager pulls her into the backroom to tell her that she can’t fight customers. Goromi counters that she can’t allow a threat to women to go unchecked. 
Tumblr media
Another hostess on the floor shouts at a customer to stop because touching is forbidden. Goromi says that sounds like trouble, she might as well handle it since Kiryu hasn’t shown up yet. The manager says absolutely not, those are Sakamoto Family men (probably, it’s not spoken out loud but Sakamoto is the most common reading).
The manager goes out to deal with it and gets hit by a Sakamoto Family goon for his trouble, but the guy leaves. Turns out the Sakamoto Family has been showing up a lot and never paying, and it’s a real pain. Goromi tells him to get his act together and fight back already! The manager says there’s no way he can win, going along with them is the best way to protect the club. Goromi calls him a coward, and leaves. <Part 2>
<the next day> Majima once again shows up and has a brief struggle with the wig until... Tada! A perfect Goromi~❤️
Tumblr media
Goromi is certain Kiryu-chan will show up today! He definitely will! ...Why the hell hasn’t he shown up yet? She notices yet another unruly customer, once again a Sakamoto Family goon, hassling the manager, but this time she just watches. The manager tries to explain that the rules clearly state you aren’t allowed to touch the hostesses, and gets hit for it again. He stands back up, repeats himself, and gets punched another time. The goon grabs the hostess and says they’re going to the bathroom together.
Goromi steps in to stop him, but the manager beats her to it, and finally hits the guy back. He’s remembering what Goromi-san said to him... He’s not going to run away!!
Tumblr media
<Fight Happens>
Manager gets his ass KICKED, goon taunts him and says he’d never win in a million years. Manager gets back up anyways, tells him he has to leave... just in time for the patriarch of the Sakamoto Family to arrive. He’s heard this is a fun place, and wants to sit with a lady ASAP. His goon shouts at the manager, the manager fumbles, and Goromi steps in.
Sakamoto thinks this is just great, that eyepatch is really getting his fighting spirit going! His lackey is less sure. The manager tries to step in, Goromi cuts him and says she’ll be his hostess tonight. Sakamoto is falling over himself trying to offer Goromi a seat, he’s just smitten.
Tumblr media
The manager wonders what Goromi is up to...
<Part 3>
We start off immediately with Sakamoto telling Goromi how cute she is, and how much he likes her, and that she’s got a real tight lil butt.
Tumblr media
“Stoooop~, ya pervy patriarch❤️” 
Tumblr media
Sakamoto says he really like Goromi, too many girls nowadays would throw a fit if he grabbed their ass. The manager is wondering what the hell is going on, why is Goromi being so nice??
Sakamoto asks what kind of men Goromi likes. She likes strong, beefy guys, of course! Sakamoto says that she’s gonna love him then. Sakamoto: I was the strongest guy in his whole town! I’ve heard that the strongest guy in Kamurocho’s the patriarch of the Majima family, some moron named Majima Goro. Goromi: Oh, is that so? Sakamoto: I’m pretty sure him being crazy strong’s just a silly rumor though. If I were up against him it’d be like beating up a baby. Goromi: Woahhhh, that’s so cool~ 🎵 All that strength is really making my heart beat fast~
Sakamoto lets Goromi order whatever she likes from the menu. The manager worries that she’s going to order a fight! But no, she just asks for Don Perignon, the most expensive thing on the menu. And she convinces him to get 10 bottles of it.
<2 hours pass>
Sakamoto: Bahaha! Goromi-chan, you're the best girl of them all! Goromi: Before ya go I got one more thing for ya Mr. Patriarch! Sakamoto: Ehhhh, is it a kiss~ Goromi: It's your bill! Sakamoto: Ah....? Haha, great joke Goromi-chan! Goromi: It ain't no joke! Between the drinks and the service... you've racked up 5 million yen. How would ya like to pay that?  Sakamoto: Now hold on, I ain't payin' that! Even if you're cute!! Goromi: Eh, you really won't pay? Sakamoto: No! I absolutely will not pay!! Goromi: So that mean's you're not a customer now, is that right?
Tumblr media
Goromi: Since you're not a customer, Goromi can be a little... rough Sakamoto: Tch, boys, let's teach this lady a little discipline! Goromi: Discipline....? Idiots, Goromi is the butterfly that dances in the night. I don't take orders from anyone, especially morons like you!! <Fight Happens, Goromi obliterates them> Sakamoto: You, you're actually...! Goromi: What are ya talking about? I'm Goromi, Kamurocho's number one hostess. Goromi: If you disrespect the women of this city... I'll show you a world of hurt. Sakamoto: W-Wahhhhh!! P-Please forgive me!! Goromi: From now on you're banned. Don't let me see your face here again. Got it?  Sakamoto: Y-yes ma'am! I understand! P-Please excuse me... Goromi: Wait. You still got a bill to pay. Sakamoto: Wh- um, well, I don't have that much right now... Goromi: Haw? Then why'd you eat and drink so much! You got some nerve takin' whatever ya fancied. But... I could forgive ya if you go on an after hours date with me. Sakamoto: ...Eh? Goromi: Until the money's collected, we're going on dates. ...Be prepared. 
<the next day> Manager: Majima-san, thank you so much. Goromi: Eh? What're you talkin' about. This is just Goromi gettin' paid properly for her work. Manager: Ah. I see. Goromi: And... I'm glad you stood up for your girls. Ya finally showed your guts. You've got a real good crew here, keep workin' to be the best. Manager: Th-thank you so much! Uhuuuuuu! Goromi: Don't get all emotional and cry! I'm countin' on having your full cooperation when it comes to fighting Kiryu-chan! Manager: Yes ma'am! By all means.   Door Greeter: Maji- I mean, Goromi-san! K-Kiryu-san is coming here!! Goromi: Ohh, nice timing! Well, let's do this thing! Manager: Yes! <Goromi goes to greet Kiryu at the door> Goromi: Heyyy, it's Goromi~  
<END>
Another bonus fact that relates to both this and the event: the rggo twitter put up a poll asking everyone which of these girls was their favorite
(Lady that does the gatcha rolls, Mayumi from rggo’s story, Yuki, and badly photoshopped Goromi)
Tumblr media
in a shock to no one reading this, Goromi obliterated the vote, coming in just shy of 80%...
Tumblr media
...which was apparently a shock to the staff! They immediately tweeted "Goromi got 80%...! What a crazy result 😵 We're having an emergency planning meeting now. Thank you all for voting so much!"
I have to wonder if this was a turning point in how they wrote Goromi, with the event and substory presenting her as not strictly a one off occurrence! Maybe the fan enthusiasm got them to take her a little more seriously

I know I say it all the time, but I wanted to tell you directly for once: I think the stuff you write is genuinely great! Whether it be a few headcanons, a fic or a description of one of your AUs, I really love them! They're well written and always interesting to read, so thank you for posting your stuff! I'll always be looking forward to more! Once again, I have another question about your boys! Do you have some friendship HCs? Either between them or in general? ^^
@yokairu​ Youre the absolute sweetest!! It means the world to read that, I owe you so much, thank you! I wrote a whole thing about Doppo having friends once at three in the morning and its been sitting in my drafts for a few weeks so I thought the ideas I had there would be interesting here! I also put a lil hc what I think being friends with them would be like too!
Doppo doesn’t really have any friends outside of Jakurai and Hifumi which is a huge shame because I think he could get along with everyone! He really deserves more people to care about him!
💼 Dice inviting Doppo to try a more adventurist life for a night, have the two go gambling and drinking together. I just want Doppo to be able to loosen up and have some fun and I also want Dice to understand just how much of Doppos apology loops come from such an abusive work life. They’re complete opposites and they could learn something from each other!!!
💼 Doppo being a big brother figure for Ichiro, Doppo is literally the walking definition of exhaustion and having to take care of two baby brothers must’ve been tough on Ichiro. So Doppo can understand having to hide more negative emotions from his years hiding them from co-workers, managers, customers, and maybe even his own younger brother. Doppo might not be able to help carry the burden Ichiro has but let him give him like a nice lil head pat, tell him hes doing a great job!!!
💼 Also speaking of buster bros, Jiro and Saburo??? Like imagine Doppo teaching Saburo how to use Microsoft Excel!! Jiro catching Doppo on his lunch break and begging him to buy him lunch too, then Doppo complaining about how much his job sucks and Jiro giving him some of the worst career advice ever.
💼 Rio teaching him how to make all kinds of drinks and foods he can eat to relieve his stress and tension. Just Doppo out in the woods to clear his mind from the bustle of the city, taking in fresh air and just relaxing. Having someone like Rio who isn’t too talkative but is always willing to let him vent then after hes let it all out he can just lie back and look at the stars!!
💼 Even though Ramuda and Matenrou are on very tense terms but having him make clothes for Doppo. It could just be something small like a nicely designed tie but it’d be enough because itd liven him up knowing that this is something no one else in the world has!! And just having him model for Ramuda at all, it would be such a good boost to his self esteem and hed get to wear all kinds of pretty outfits!!
💼 DOPPO BOOK CLUB!!! DOPPO BOOK CLUB!!! On Doppos days off he host a book club with Gentaro and Rosho! They all talk about books they’ve read, Doppo usually only talks about chapters rather than full books because he rarely has time to read. Gentaro constantly lying about the ending of a book to goof on Rosho and Doppo but always feeling a little bad when Doppo takes it seriously and gets all bummed that it was taking him too long to finish.
💼 Sasara the funny clown man trying his damnedest to make Doppo laugh at one of his jokes!! The salaryman is sad too much he deserves a good laugh too and sometimes Sasaras funny so its perfect!!
👔 Being friends with Doppo changes the longer you know him, at first he’ll be very nervous and overly considerate, but after a long while he’ll eventually relax. He worries a lot about being a burden or about you thinking being friends with him is an obligation so you’ll have to be the one to initiate conversation with him at the beginning. Once he feels confidant that you really care about him then comes the second hurdle of him feeling terrible about never having any time. Time is an issue for Doppo but he tries his hardest to always answer whatever texts you send him and he always extends an invitation to you whenever he can! Slowly, he’ll also be more open about his emotions, not like he isn’t already but he’ll be less worried about expressing them. He’ll be less indecisive on vocalizing his annoyance if you do something that bothers him or if you’re doing something stupid alongside Hifumi. He’ll still be apologetic but less so when it comes to him keeping his ground because you guys are close enough for him not to worry about bending over backwards. Its all a long process but if you do make it to the end you have a very loving friend who is just glad to have you around!
Ichiro needs more people to hang out with, people he can de-stress with when he’s away from his brothers. MC BIG BRO DESERVES A BREAK!
🎧 I know I ship with IchiDice but the two would make great boyfriends and regular friends! Ichiro tends to avoid things that he’s too young so he can’t go gambling instead he gets Dice addicted to a gatcha games. Dice isnt huge on the anime stuff but he sure loves hitting those SSRs! The two are always talking about their pulls, bragging about the good and complaining about the bad almost 24/7. On the other side though when a day gets too stressful Dice is more than okay to listen to Ichiro vent a little, although it is rare and its not like Dice gives good advice but its nice to have an outlet. In return Ichiro always lets Dice crash at his place whenever he hits a massive losing streak.
🎧 Ramuda constantly complains about Ichiro and his brothers clothes so he has an excuse to make them new ones. He also loves texting Ichiro just to chat, always using stickers and litters his texts with emoticons.  。.:☆*:・'(*⌒―⌒*))) °˖✧◝(⁰▿⁰)◜✧˖° (⁄ ⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄ ⁄) ヽ( ̄ω ̄(。。 )ゝ
🎧 Okay, now hear me out, Rio and Ichiro. It’s the strangest combination but Rio is just such a sweetheart, after the DRB he came over to the Yamada household to check up on them and bring them food. After a little while of gaining his trust Ichiro would slowly warm up to him, I mean he helped with chores and cooked for them. (Even tho the food is a little suspicious being made literally anything) It must be hard to take care of two kids when you’re still a kid too so Rio wants to try and help a little.
🎧 I think there isn’t enough of a focus on him being on good terms with Jakurai and the two being friends. Like Rio, Jakurai worries about Ichiro and how much of his childhood was taken away from him so whenever the two are together he tries to take up the responsibility of paying or driving so he can relax. He takes him and his brothers out fishing occasionally, how much they catch depends on how much Jiro and Saburo argue though.
🔴 Ichiro is an absolutely amazing friend to have! Although his brotherly instincts can make him a little overbearing sometimes, always inviting you over for dinner or reprimanding you if you do something a bit more reckless. He loves involving people in his interests so if you even hint about anime or hip hop he’s on you in a second to drop everything he knows about the subjects, he has whole list of series, artists, and light novels he can’t wait to share! Of course he loves to hear about whatever you’re interested in at the time too and tries to get into it too! Day offs or slow days are anime days so be prepared to get hit with a spam of messages from Ichiro to watch that anime he kept talking about!
Dice travels literally all over the place, he deserves to know pretty much everyone, honestly.
🎲 Jiro and him are some rowdy boys, they get into all kinds of trouble! Whenever Jiro goes tagging sometimes Dice will tag along if he’s too broke to be gambling. If Jiro has any extra cash on him he’ll take Dice to get something cheap to eat since he can’t have him starving himself. Honestly, Dice is like having another older brother except he’s more embarrassing than Ichiro could ever dream to be.
🎲 He usually ends up seeing Samatoki at some of the casinos around Yokohama and like the true idiot he immediately begs for money, not the smartest thing to do to a yakuza but this is Dice. After being yelled a firm no, he’ll usually bum a smoke off him and the two will chat for a little. Sometimes if Samatoki is feeling friendly he’ll tell Dice about any gambling rings happening and if hes being even friendlier he’ll warn him about the dangers too.
🎲 Jyuto and him have run into each other a couple times although it was mainly him having to be escorted off private property. Every time Jyuto gets a call about about someone trespassing he gets so exhausted the moment he shows up and its just Dice again. After being pretend arrested Dice always ends up begging Jyuto to drive him to Rios camp.
🎲 Hifumi has found Dice in the alleyways he takes to the train station, the two usually chat on the way back to his apartment because Dice can’t say no to Hifumi’s cooking. After eating everything Hifumi would make him he’d usually either beg for gambling money or just enough to get back home. Although, on winning days he’ll visit the club, request Hifumi and a champagne call as thanks for feeding him with an extra bonus of downing a whole bottle of champagne. 
🎰 Congratulations you have gotten your very own stray cat! Dice is constantly coming and going so don’t be surprised to wake up and find him sleeping on your doorstep or couch if you gave him a key. He’ll be looking to you for food and the occasional pity 10,000 bills because he swears THE NEXT ONE IS THE WIN PLEASE. You never have to worry about telling him no though, his ability to go from groveling to standing on his feet to just chat is at a record speed. He usually spends his time gambling but if you can’t then he’s more than fine just talking a walk through the town pointing out places where he won or places he lost everything and had to hide while he waited for Gentaro. Past all the begging he’s a funky boy here for a good time and when he hits that 777 you are definitely one of the first people he goes to when its time to celebrate!

Trapped (Tales From The Heart)
Fandom: One Piece Rating: Teen Warnings: blood, injury Characters: Shachi, Law, Penguin
Landing on an apparently uninhabited island always posed its own challenges. They were usually in need of fresh supplies, so chief among them was finding something safe to eat (and preferably something they could keep for a while in the freezer). Most of the crew was put on foraging and hunting duty once the island was confirmed to be safe.
Confirming it to be safe required a scouting party of two or three people (one was too dangerous and more than three could draw unwanted attention). They wouldn't venture far from where the Tang was moored, just in case something came up that they couldn't handle, just far enough to make sure there was enough of a safe area to forage in.
This time, on a humid spring island, Penguin and Shachi had volunteered to be the initial scouts, cautiously setting out with a baby den den mushi in Penguin's pocket, a section of Law's vivre card in Shachi's, and knives concealed under both their tops. In the humidity, the boiler suits had been discarded for something lighter.
The island may as well have been a tropical jungle, if slightly cool, covered in large lush vegetation. Trees reached for the sky, large leaves and intertwining branches creating a thick canopy above their heads. They made note of the plentiful berries around, not recognising many but confident that when it came to gathering, their nakama would be able to collectively discern whether they were edible.
Bountiful crop aside, the island felt somewhat eerie. There was no birdsong. Nor were there calls of other animals, leaving the only noise to be the whisper of wind in the trees. Perhaps there was nothing edible on the island, but even if it wasn't fit for human consumption there was usually some animal or other that had evolved to eat anything. The absence of anything at all was unnerving.
On the edge of their agreed area was the mouth of a cave, set into a small hill. Caves could contain anything. With a shared nod, the pair edged forwards, crossing the threshold slowly and casting around with all of their senses for anything at all.
"Hey-" Shachi started, tensing, only to be drowned out by a loud rumble. It came from above and behind them, and they whirled around in time to see the first rocks fall.
They swore and tried to duck out through the entrance before they were blocked in, but the rockfall was too fast and violent, large boulders slamming down to the ground as they stacked together.
Shachi heard Penguin give out a yelp and reached out for him in the disappearing light, catching hold of his arm as the older man fell to the cave floor.
"Penguin!" he shouted, swearing as a trickle of large stones cascaded down the inside of the cave mouth towards them. Penguin didn't get up, so he dragged him backwards by the arm he'd caught, away from the rockfall. "Hey, Penguin!"
"Nnrgh," the other pirate groaned as the last of the stones fell, well and truly blocking them in. With minimal light to see with – weak rays of daylight tried to force their way past the rocks but failed to do more than keep the cave from being total pitch darkness – Shachi yanked his shades off, taking advantage of his sensitivity to light and subsequent semi-night vision.
It didn't do much, and he knew the moment any real light filtered into the cave he was going to regret it, but for the time being it permitted him to see the outline of his nakama, who was still lying on the floor of the cave where he'd dragged him. Kneeling besides him, he reached for his head to find a sticky lump – he must have lost his hat in the rockfall – and cursed. A rock must have caught him as it fell, and while Shachi was no Law, he knew enough to know instantly that Penguin had concussion, and probably quite a bad one.
Releasing even more profanities, he rummaged through Penguin's pockets for their baby den den mushi, finding the small creature and waking it with some urgent pokes. It gave him a reproachful look even as it dialled the Polar Tang, Shachi fidgeting on the spot.
Gatcha.
"Law!" he said hurriedly, before whoever was on the other end had a chance to say a greeting.
"What's wrong?" his captain asked, and he saw the baby den den morph itself to resemble his captain.
"We got caught in a rockfall," he said, forcing himself not to garble the words in his rush to get them out. "There was a cave, and now we're trapped inside."
"Are you hurt?" Law demanded and Shachi shook his head.
"I'm unhurt," he began, "but I think Penguin got hit by a rock. His head's bleeding and he's not responding to much."
"I'm on my way," Law said, "keep-"
Shachi's attention was snatched away from the den den mushi by a slithering sound, immediately accompanied by a clacking of something hard on rock. He turned around slowly and paled.
"Uh, Law?" he said, cutting off whatever his captain had been saying. "Could you hurry? Only… I don't think the cave's owner is too happy with us shutting its front door."
Two glowing cyan eyes glowered at him out of the darkness, easily at a level above his head. At least Bepo's height, Shachi catalogued absently. There was a strange sound, like a mixture between a snarl and a hiss, and he moved to put himself between Penguin and the creature.
He'd never seen anything like it before. Rows and rows of teeth revealed themselves in a maw most closely resembling a snake's. A matching tail slithered along the ground behind it. The rest of the creature more closely resembled what Shachi could only consider to be a bald lion, all muscle and claws bunched up, ready to pounce.
All he had was his knife, which he quickly palmed.
"-old on," he heard the baby den den garbling in his ear, the creature having crawled up to his shoulder at some point. "Shachi, we're on our way now." The growl-hiss sounded again, and Shachi tensed, watching it preparing to pounce with the certainty that he could not stop anything with that much mass single-handedly, and if he dodged he'd be leaving the vulnerable Penguin directly in the thing's warpath.
"Hurry," he repeated, voice somehow staying steady even though there was a quake to his knees he was attempting to deny the existence of. "There's no way I'm gonna beat this thing alone."
There was a hitch of breath from the den den mushi on his shoulder, and he faintly heard Law barking orders to the rest of the crew frantically. He couldn't listen, however, as the creature chose that moment to lunge. Bracing himself and pulling all the pathetic armament haki he could, he slashed out with the knife, trying to use the thing's momentum against it.
The frantic action worked, deflecting the charge so that it missed both him and Penguin, but as the creature pulled itself back together and regarded him with those cold cyan eyes again, Shachi's heart sank in his chest.
Those were intelligent, calculating eyes. It wouldn't be falling for the same trick twice. That made it smarter than most marines, Shachi noted idly but with a no small amount of trepidation. He didn't need a smart opponent.
The stalemate lasted maybe five seconds, before the eyes left Shachi to focus on something on the ground near his feet. Shachi followed its gaze instinctively to see Penguin's unmoving form.
The beast didn't need to be smart to know which was the easier prey. Its mouth opened in what Shachi could only call a victorious grin before it lunged.
"Oh no you don't," Shachi growled, meeting the beast head on with his knife, heading straight for one of the glowing eyes. He felt the hit, the unmistakable sensation of the blade sinking into something squishy, and the creature screamed, whipping its head side to side frantically.
There was a sharp pain in Shachi's left arm as a stray fang snagged it, and he bit back a yelp. The action itself was nothing outside of his pain tolerance, years of piracy raising it by necessity, but the fire that erupted from the injury was instantaneous and agonising.
He fell to the ground heavily, the impact forcing a pained grunt from him, losing his grip on his knife as he did so. The blade was still embedded in one eye, now red rather than cyan, and the other regarded him with an angered slit. Moving his left arm did nothing other than intensify the burn, and Shachi choked back the noise of pain.
"Shachi?" Law's breathless voice called from the baby den den mushi somehow still on his shoulder, and he realised dimly that at some point the call had been transferred to another baby den den mushi for Law to carry as he ran.
"I think I made it mad," he replied through gritted teeth, glaring back at the sole cyan eye. "And it doesn't play fair. Seems like its fangs are venomous."
He heard Law curse, but it was at that moment the creature decided to launch another offensive. Weaponless but all too aware of Penguin's limp form behind him, Shachi forced what armament haki he could into his arms, holding them up defensively.
He'd thought the thing would muscle him aside and head for Penguin – certainly, it had the strength for that – but its head twisted sideways at the last second, teeth clamping around Shachi's right arm unforgivingly. He couldn't bite back the scream, and faintly heard Law desperately calling his name.
"-chi! I can see the cave now, hol-"
The line went dead as Shachi felt the tail of the creature crash down on his shoulder. Looking up at the cyan eye, he saw a look of smug satisfaction and a realisation chilled him to the bones.
It was playing with him. It could have gone for Penguin whenever it wanted and there was really nothing Shachi could have done about it, but it hadn't. Instead it had targeted Shachi himself, even going so far as to use Penguin as bait, and now it had cut off his only communication. The teeth retracted from his arm and he stumbled backwards, but not fast enough as it snapped again, this time its fangs sinking into his abdomen. Shachi screamed, collapsing backwards and narrowly missing Penguin as he crashed to the ground, the creature not relinquishing its bite and instead letting Shachi's momentum pull it forwards until it was pinning him with one huge claw.
A translucent blue passed over them, and then Penguin was gone. In his place stood Law, Kikoku unsheathed and free hand poised to manipulate everything inside his Room.
Whether the creature saw a new toy or a threat, Shachi didn't know, but he was dragged to his feet by the bite still encompassing most of his abdomen and shaken around like a chew toy.
Law wasted no time, an Amputate and Takt combination finding Shachi laid on the cave floor behind his captain. Any efforts to find his feet were a lost cause as his limbs refused to respond, so he could do nothing other than watch Law dice the creature and scatter the parts thoroughly before kneeling down next to him.
"Sorry I took so long," he apologised, and Shachi gave him a toothy grin.
"You came in the end," he pointed out, voice slightly hoarse. Law shook his head fondly before there was a hand gripping his and the world shifted.
They materialised just outside the cave. Shachi winced at the sudden light – he knew he'd regret taking his shades off – and shut his eyes hurriedly, but he could sense several of his nakama surrounding him.
"Back to the Tang," Law ordered, and Shachi felt someone pick him up. His haki said it was Clione.
"Bepo already took Penguin back," Uni reported, probably to Law although Shachi appreciated the information.
"Good," Law said, sounding pleased. "No-one is going out in less than a group of five," he added. "We don't know how many of those things are lurking."
Even if he wasn't destined for a spell in the infirmary, what felt like his entire musculature screaming at him non-stop, Shachi would not have been volunteering to leave the security of the Tang again on that island. He didn't scare easily, but there was just something about the uncanny intelligence of that creature that rubbed him the wrong way.
Despite knowing that Law had incapacitated the creature, Shachi couldn't even begin to relax until he was back in the safety of the Polar Tang, lying on the bed next to Penguin's in the infirmary and listening to Bepo trying to persuade the other not to fall asleep.

He smiled shaking his hand to seal the deal. That way no one could interfere and try to ruin this for either of them. When L picked up the mogling his eyes went wide and he reached down the poor things throat to fish it out. Pulling the gatcha pod out he winced seeing it had opened a crack. "Well it didn't open fully so here's hoping there won't be any side effects from this thing other than an upset stomach." Putting the pod down he waved his hand to get all the mucus off it and sighed. "Sorry little guy but those will make you very very sick. If you're hungry we can get you some bottles." Summoning up two bottles he handed them to L. "It doesn't look like a lot but both heads will want to eat and they do only have small stomachs right now."
@a-drop-of-nightshade
How long had he been doing this now? Centuries? Millenia? For some reason the same L always showed up at his side after he died and it was getting tiring finding new worlds to try and settle him on. The last one had lasted mere moments before he'd shown up again looking bored and slurping a slushie. Hanging his head a bit he sighed. "L? Come on dude. You were there a total of 5 minutes. What the hell happened?"

2005
           I stop for gas and sigh when the light hot wind brushes my back. With the leather of the Impala’s seats and the very hot weather, my shirt is stick to my skin all over my back.
“I need water, do you want anything else ?” says my baby getting out of the car. “Jeez my thighs were glued to the seat ! Gross…”
The sun is hitting her skin, she’s making me crazy. When I picked her from school she wore that uniform of hers : oversized hoodie and jeans. But the moment she was on the car, she took that off. And now her thin white tank top is allowing me to see her bra, and her tiny shorts are letting her entire legs on full display. If I wasn’t in such a hurry I would take those clothes off and make her come until she can’t take it.
“I can’t bear my shoes anymore” she says taking them off.
She throws them in the car and head toward the store barefoot, on her tiptoes because the asphalt is burning her skin.
           When she comes back she throws herself at me. She takes me in her arms and kisses my lips. The coolness from the bottles she’s holding makes me shiver.
“I can’t get over how handsome you are” she says in a smile on my lips.
“Have I ever told you I love you ?” I ask pecking her lips again.
“Only a thousand times” she kisses my cheek and opens a bottle, handing it to me. “Water baby ?”
           “So Sam is tall, has green, but not-really-like-you-green, eyes, and is a law student” she says lifting her feet to cross them on the dashboard. “How am I supposed to know when I see him, Dean.”
“I didn’t see him for years… I can’t tell you much. I think his hair won’t be short, he never cuts it short…”
I’m so nervous. I just want to know how he’s doing. It’s actually Jay’s idea, she’s going to pretend to be new to Stanford to talk to him.
“Hey” she whispers putting her hand on mine on the wheel. “We can do it another time, Baby.”
“No, no. I need to know he’s doing okay. And then move on, leave him be…”
“I love you Dean Winchester” she says bending to cup my cheek.
             And she did, she met Sam.
           I see him from a secure distance. He's a grown up now, tall and strong and smart. My little babybrother doesn't need me anymore, he doesn't need dad.
           Seeing my love talk to my brother is all I dreamed of lately, her radiant smile on her lips greeting him for me. I'm not so alone anymore Sammy, I have her. Be happy please, don't worry for dad or me.
           They're talking about God knows what, he's showing her places with his fingers and she really act like she cares. When he takes her to the coffee shop across the street, I can't follow them and go back to the car.
           She comes back an hour later, one of the longest hour of my life so far. I don't know how she could talk to him so long, how she could act like she knew Stanford, come up with so many questions...
"Your brother is a great guy and he misses you" she says and I feel my eyes getting wet.
I don't want to cry but I feel so safe with her, she puts her hand on my chest, as if she was telling me to let go, that she got my heart.
           I can’t stop the tears from falling silently while she tells me how happy Sam is. He has got a girlfriend, Jessica, the girl seems nice and smart, she came to pick him up, so Jay saw her.
"She has a soft smile and she's really pretty" she says stroking my hand.
He’s doing well, his grades are excellent. It’s sure now that my babybrother is going to be a lawyer. He’s just better when I’m not around.
           Jay is holding my head against her neck now, stroking my head silently as the waitress comes with our food. I don't care what people think about us, cuddling in the middle of a diner. I just need her to hold me a little longer...
“He wanted to have a normal life and made it” she whispers. “He’s handsome too…” she smiles.
“Yeah but I’m the handsome brother” I try to joke.
“Of course you are.”
“Thank you. For everything… I love you."
 *******************************
           “Are you okay, Dean ?” Sam asks, putting his fork down.
“Yeah. Why ?” Dean lies with an annoyed look.
He’s not. He looks odd lately. Playing with his food, he looks around him like he tried not to look at us.
           He only opens his mouth to talk about cases, and he never asks me or anyone else to spend time with him, drinking by himself at night.
           Her never goes out alone either, or hits on girls on hunts. Never. This should be a relief but he seems sad all the time. And I just can’t think about anything worse than Dean being sad.
“So, could it be a Djinn ?” Sam continues.
As he talks I look at Dean, he eats absently. And despite the anger and the heartbreak, I always need to comfort him, I always want to take his worry. When I put a gentle hand on his to catch his attention, he frowns and takes his hand away. My heart aches...
           It was a Djinn. Looking at the road I wonder in what dream the Djinn would have kept me. Probably the best dream ever, one in which Dean never left me we'd been together for fourteen years. Maybe it would have been fun to live it, just a few minutes, before the guys find me. Or maybe I could have died this way, dreaming of a lost love. It's probably how I die anyway...
"Have you heard from Jack ?" Dean asks, bringing me back to reality.
"Yes, he's with Cas" I answer looking at his eyes through the rear-view mirror.
"Good" he states with that stern voice I never knew that much before.
           The road is never-ending and I'm pretending to be asleep for two hours now, I think I might have drift away for a moment, but Sam's voice catch my attention even if he's speaking low.
"You should talk to her..." he says and Dean grunts.
"About what ?" he says in a whisper.
"I don't know, you two have things to figure out... I'm not blind, and I know you. You seem angry since that night you spent together."
"We didn't spend the night together Sam" Dean whispers, checking on me on the mirror.
Luckily, the darkness hides me and he doesn't see my half opened eyes looking back at him.
"She spent the night with you, remember ?" he adds very low.
"Is that what's bothering you ? Do you... like her ?" Sam asks.
"No. Shut up. You'll wake her, her sleep is always so light."
           When the Impala enters the garage, I still pretend to sleep, just because I don't want to look at Dean, to see that coldness on his face, the one that reminds me he's not mine anymore.
           Before I get the chance to fake-wake up, I hear my door open and a strong arm slip under my knees. Then another hand on my back.
           Dean. This is Dean taking me in his arms.
           I wrap my arms around his neck, trying to pretend to be half asleep. My head comes on his shoulder and he lifts me like I weighted nothing. He closes the door with his feet.
"Dean ?" I whisper.
"'S okay, gatcha" he says.
I close my eyes and take a deep breath, drowning in his smell. I feel the steps, praying that my bed will never come, that he will just hold me forever. Without realizing it I hang onto his neck like my life depends on it.
           He puts me on my bed gently and I finally open my eyes, desperate to see him before he goes away. He bites his lips lost in his thoughts and frown when he meets my eyes.
"Thank you" I say with a voice that sound like I had slept, even though it's more an about-to-cry voice.
"You're welcome. You were sleeping at last. Good night Jay."
 ***********************
2005
           She moves in my arms to look at my face. I stroke her hair lovingly, still out of breath from the amazing sex we just had.
"That hunt was incredible..." she thinks out loud.
"It was a pretty regular hunt, Jay."
"Still, I feel like a warrior..." she gets up and straddles me, I reach for her breasts right away. "I feel like a warrior in the arms of the best warrior ever."
She bends to kiss me.
"I'm not the best, my dad is" I say when she lazily nibbles at my shoulders.
"Yeah but your father is... Well..." she stops and looks away.
"What ?" I push her to look at her. "What about him ?"
"I mean, no offence, but he doesn't sound that perfect to me."
"Why would you say that ?" I ask, sitting up.
"Dean... He... from what you told me, I mean, he seems... He didn't always treat you right, he seems quite violent and obsessed, he didn't even... and with Sammy and..."
I get up and put my jeans back on.
"Don't talk about him, you don't know him" I say more angrily than I wanted. "He's the best. Period."
"I know, I know Dean I'm sorry... Come back here" she says pulling at my wrist. "Baby I'm sorry."
I look at her and sit on the bed. I sigh, I'm not mad at her, I can't be. Suddenly the urge to ask her what I want to ask her for a few months makes my heart beat my chest. It's time. I mean look at her Dean… she's everything to you.
"Jay..." I say with my voice a little strangled.
She takes me in her arms from behind and kisses my neck. I can feel her skin on my bare back, and her warm breath on my neck.
"You remember when I said we couldn't be together for long ? Because the minute my dad comes back he's going to take me with him ?"
She tenses and sits straight, breaking all contact with me. I continue before I frighten her.
"I say we should at least try baby" I state, turning to search her face. "I love you too much to let you go. I want to be with you..."
She starts to cry, silent tears running down her cheeks. She comes closer, putting her hands on my chest.
"It won't be easy. And this is a dangerous life... But I have more and more trouble imagining it without you. Will you come with me ? Maybe meet my dad ? And be okay with me being gone and back ?"
"As long as you're back. Baby I love you so much" she sobs. "I'll follow you anywhere, I'll wait for you all my life."
             We just came out of the movie theater, she insisted in watching a horror movie with me, and we had so much fun criticizing all the characters choices.
"Watching a horror movie with Dean Winchester, hero, real life monster hunter... I'll never be afraid of any movie again !" she said in my ear while the ghost was ripping the teenagers guts.
We needed to laugh, it’s been a rough hunt and she got injured. Not much... just a cut on her arm. Still, I have a knot in my stomach, and I try to hide it.
“You’re worrying again” she says at my arm. “Stop that and buy me food.”
           She’s eating her chocolate cake with an absent look. I realize I was so deep in my own worry I never asked her how she’s doing. Maybe she got scared during that hunt, maybe it's the reason she wanted to watch that horror movie, to replace the memory of the actual ghost that pushed her against the mirror that cut her arm.
“You okay ?” I say taking her hand in mine.
She lift her eyes to look into mine and I see they’re wet all of sudden.
“Hey, hey, baby. What’s happening ? Did you get scared ?” I say getting up to join her on the seat, to wrap my arm around her.
When she leans to me and starts to sob, my heart is pounding in my chest. What's happening ? I never saw her so desperate.
“I’m sorry Dean… I made a mistake and now I’m terrified and I shouldn’t talk to you about it be...because it's my fault and I have to deal with it, but…”
“Hey, you can talk to me about anything, you know that” I say stroking her hair, feeling one big heavy tear crash on my jeans.
“I’m late Dean” she says shakily and my heart misses a beat. “The test is negative but sometimes… And I checked my pill and I may have forgotten one, this night we drank too much and I… I’m sorry. I’m terrified.”
“Okay baby calm down. Calm down.”
“You must hate me right now… I’m so sorry, I… If I… I won’t keep it if you…”
“Jay look at me” I cut her. “I don’t hate you. I will never hate you. We’re together in this. Listen, you say the test is negative, let us take you to a doctor to be sure, and if…” I swallow my panic as discreetly as I can. “If there is really something to talk about, we’ll talk about it. But now we don’t know okay ?”
           In the waiting room I’m burning with fear. What if she was pregnant ? What if I did that to her ? We can’t afford a baby, we can’t bring a baby to this life. We’re barely able to take care of ourselves… Fuck, what if she had to go through an abortion because of me ? It would hurt her so much. And I love her… I love her more than life... Would I be able to get rid of our love child ?
           She comes out and jumps in my arms.
“It’s okay ! Not pregnant, Dean.” She kisses me a hundred times and whispers in repeat in my ear. “I’m sorry. I love you. I’m sorry baby. Everything is fine, I’m so sorry I worried you. I love you…”
           “What if I get a tattoo ?”she says drawing patterns on my chest.
“A tattoo ? Of what ?”
“You…” she whispers, lifting her head from the bed, giving a soft lick at my nipple.
“Me ?”
She lets her hand roam my still sweaty body, grazing my cock.
“Yeah. Your name maybe, I don’t know. It would be fogeyish and ridiculous” she adds, bending to suck at my pulse point. “But I would love to be marked by you forever.”
I moan has she starts stroking my length gently, my hands coming in her hair, my eyes closing.
“It would be cute” I pant. “Everyone would know you’re mine... Baby we just had sex two times in a row, I don’t know if I can… You’re gonna kill me.”
But I feel myself getting hard in her sweet hand.
“Oh you can baby…”
“Remember that time I had to eat your weight in bacon and sleep for eleven hours to recover  ? Are you trying to kill me ?”
“Wouldn’t you like to die like that ?” she asks smiling with the tip of her tongue showing between her teeth.
“I would love to… Ah…” I moan. “Okay, go ahead, kill me love. At least I’d die happy…”
As I say that, she straddles me and her free hand comes to my throat. And I have no reflex. I thought I would jump or push her, but I don’t, I just stay there, my palms on her waist, her hand stroking me between our bodies, and that other hand, almost cutting my air supply.
           We talked about it one night. She saw that people do that and asked me why ; I could only guess as I never tried, I told her I doubted that I would like it, but she smiled, saying she would love me to choke her, that feeling at my mercy would definitely be a turn on.
           I never did, I never dared. And there she is, lining herself with me, and sinking on my cock with a moan. She doesn’t squeeze my throat so hard but I must say just the gesture is extremely hot, trusting her so much that she can wrap her hand just where that monster did a week ago to kill me, and not moving.
           She starts to roll her hips and to move up and down. She moans and bites her lips. She’s beautiful.
           My baby’s an angel.
           I can feel how close she’s becoming by the force she uses to squeeze her hand around my neck, I start to feel dizzy and I pant hardly. I love so much that she’s using me like that. I can't get over that lost hungry look on her face when she's so fucking horny that she begs me on a loop... But I need her to come now, or I’ll faint.
           My hand runs from her waist to her pussy and I touch her clit, making her moan loud and almost stop her movements. She loses any control on her hand and I can’t breathe at all anymore.
           She comes powerfully, falling on me and letting my neck go. The second she does, it’s like I’m electrocuted with my own orgasm, I feel her soaking my thigh and I grab her ass harshly to thrust one last time deeper inside her.
           My phone lights up. I open one eye, frowning. Jay is sleeping on the other side of the bed, holding all the blanket in her arms. I smile and kiss her shoulder.
“Dean…” she whispers in her sleep.
           I look at my phone and rub my eyes. It’s a text from dad.
“Get out of there.”
My eyes widen and I look through the window. His truck is here, next to the Impala, and I can see his distant shape behind the wheel.
           I get up and dress up as fast and as silently as I can. Jay moves and I tell her I just need to pee. She falls back asleep.
           When I enter the car, my heart is about to explode, that’s not how I wanted to introduce Jay, and he looks pissed.
“Hi dad” I say closing the door behind me.
“You stink” he says.
I look down, knowing he must be right. I'm sweaty and I have sex so many times I lost count before I fell asleep.
“I went to the motel. You weren’t there” he says stern and when I’m about to open my mouth he continues. “But I had no trouble finding you, as every soul in this town knows the new guy with an Impala is with that high school girl for months.”
“I… Dad” I try but he cuts me.
“High school… High school Dean. I didn’t know you were into kids” he says with a disgusted look.
“What, no ! I… Dad I love her !”
“That’s why you took her on hunts, risking her life ?”
My throat is tight.
“I… She… She’s good at hunting…” I try, searching his face.
“We’re all good until we’re dead, boy. She’s going to be hurt again, Dean!”
“Again ? No dad she never really…” How could he know her arm were cut.
“That’s why you took a medical appointment for her ?”
“This is different, she was… We thought she was…”
“Dean… Fuck, tell me she’s not pregnant !” he yells, making me jump and close my eyes.
“No ! We thought she might but, no she… she’s not.”
“Do you hear yourself son !You… You spend months fucking a young teenager, you… you took her on hunts for Christ sake ! You risked her life ! And you ruined her life !”
“I didn’t, dad… We love each…”
“Shut up ! I made some research on your girlfriend, Dean !  Did you know she skipped class so often these last few months her grades went from excellent to correct ?”
My heart sinks. I close my fists.
“No I didn’t know…”
“Did you know she got expelled from school three days for fighting ? Twice !”
“She never told m…”
“She never told you she was working so hard to go to college and now she almost has no chance to be accepted ? Dean ! And now you almost knocked her up ? Look at me in the eye son !”
“I’m sorry, Sir. I didn’t know..." That sharp pain in my chest is almost unbearable. "But I can’t leave her. We need each other.”
“You can’t be serious...” he says gripping the wheels.
“I’ll find a way, I’ll talk to her. I’ll work. I’ll… I’m sorry dad. I love her.”
When I get out of the car to walk back to the trailer, my legs are barely holding me.
 *************************
           There has been no hunt for three days. Three days spent resting, going on walks with Jack, checking the news and healing from that wound on my back, nothing too serious, a deep cut that Sam stitched.
           Dean is still so closed and I can’t stop thinking about what Sam said in the car. What if he was upset because I reject him ? What if all this have something to do with me ? I shouldn’t have done that, I shouldn’t have had sex with him. I need to  make things right, I have to talk to him.
           Just thinking about it terrifies me, and has I watch him eat in silence, my hands shake. He’s listening to Cas talk about something I didn’t really paid attention to. His eyes never meet mine. I’ll do it. I’ll talk to him tonight, and if he wants me to, I’ll leave the bunker.
           When I knock on his door, I take a deep shaky breath.
“Yeah” he just says.
I enter the room shyly and his lift his eyes toward me at last. His room is messy and he’s lying on his bed, watching TV with a bottle in his hand.
“Hi Dean, I’m sorry to bother you… Can I… talk to you ?”
He simply nods and sits on his bed.
“I…” I don’t know how to start. “You seem upset…”
“Nah, I’m good sweetheart.”
“No… You… I think you’re mad at me. And if you are, please, tell me Dean” I manage to say without crying.
“I’m not upset” he says, not making it easy for me as I expected.
He take a large sip of whiskey, directly from the bottle.
“Yeah… Well something’s wrong. Is it because… Is it because of what we…”
“Because we had sex ?” he asks in a sigh.
“Yeah…” I shrug.
“No, it’s not because we had sex, Jay.”
“Oh so you admit there is something wrong ?” I try to smile.
“Smartass…” he says getting up.
He comes closer to me and I shiver. Pushing a strand of hair away from my face, he searches my face.
“There is something about you…” he says sadly and my heart starts panicking because of how close he is. “You just…”
“Once again Dean, do you want me out of the bunker ?”
“There is nothing I want less” he says bending to catch my lips.
I can feel liquor on his lips and on his breath. And as I just can’t push him away, I feel it on his tongue too. He’s been drinking alone, again.
“Jay…” he says out of breath after a very long kiss. “I know you don’t want me, I know you won’t ever love me or even like me like that…” my eyes becomes blurry as tears fill them. “But please, Babygirl, let me have you once more.”
His lips are on my neck and I lift my head to hide the tears running on my cheeks while he sucks a hickey on my throat.
           He moans on my skin, biting where he left his mark, and before he lifts his head, I wipe my tears with my sleeves.
           He kisses me again, and takes three steps before my back hits the wall. When he takes the hem of my shirt with his fingers, I push his hands away.
“I don’t care about your scars” he whispers in my ears. “Let me have all of you for once.”
           I can’t. I can’t let him see me. Because of that tattoo I actually did that day. Because of the D.W. written on my side, just below my left breast, under my arm, close to my shattered heart. I didn’t hide it. He can’t see it.
“No Dean…” I murmur.
He rubs his face with his two hands and I can feel how frustrated he is.
“Okay” he finally sighs. “Okay give me anything you want I’ll take it.”
"Dean..."
"Just once more" he states with his hands holding my face.
           I kiss him with passion, because I can’t do it any other way. His hands roam my side and I start to kiss his jaw.
“I want you so bad” he says unbuttoning his jeans.
He’s already panting, his whiskey flavored breath making me drunk, or maybe it’s just love. He opens my belt and pulls on it so sharply it almost makes me fall.
“When you’re so badass, cutting heads and stabbing monsters…” he takes one of my nipples between his teeth through the thin fabric of my shirt and I moan. “I could take you just there in the pool of blood you spread…”
He opens my jeans and slip a hand in my panties with no warning.
“When I see you dance in the kitchen, thinking nobody’s watching” he caresses my folds, and finds my clit quickly. “I want to make you scream louder than the music…”
He’s rough and hungry. His hand is making me tremble already and craving for his fingers to fill me, but he withdraws.
           He throws me on the bed and takes his shirt off, climbing on me like a big cat.
“When you’re all lost in those books of yours, biting your lips like it was nothing…” he pulls at my jeans and panties to take it off. “I think about your pretty mouth on my cock, and how you make me crazy.”
“You think about sex all the time…” I pant when he lifts my legs above his shoulder.
“Sex with you” he says before he finds my clit with his mouth.
Fuck.
It feels like he wants to eat me alive, like he was craving for me like I am for him. Like he missed me, yet he doesn't know anything...
           He barely does anything, licking and grazing his teeth a few times, and when a finger finally slips inside me, I come, my hands on his hair.
“How can you be so perfect baby…” he pants with a surprised look on his face.“Fuck !”
He opens his jeans and his cock springs free. My legs still on his shoulders he lines himself with my entrance and I can feel my pussy clench in anticipation.
           He thrusts slowly but firmly, bottoming out in a minute, pushing so deep I think he might actually break me. His mouth is all over me, my jaw, my throat, my covered breasts.
“Move baby” I say, hearing a loud cry on my head at the word I used.
He groans and starts thrusting, his beautiful voice whining in my ear while I cling to him, scratching his skin and tugging at his hair.
This is so perfect. Dean is so perfect. We are, I guess.
 *********************************
2005
           My skin hurts. My whole back is burned but I regret nothing. After spending all the night looking at her in wonder, nauseous from the fear, I’m finally myself again.
           I just love her to much. We’ll figure it out. Dad will love her once he knows her. Maybe it will take years, but I don’t care. My phone lights up again and I realize my stomach aches, fear creeping on my back. But the sensation disappears the second I see her name on the screen.
Hey baby, the drugstore is closed. I’ll find another one I promise. Just don’t scratch ! I’ll take care of you <3
“Can’t wait. Love you so much.” I answer.
           I can’t stop walking, pacing up and down like a caged lion. I can’t wait for her to come home. Her absence is making doubt creep in my mind. What if I was bad for her ? What if dad was right ? I mean… He actually is but…
           After I washed the dishes I take the trash to take it out. How can she use so much paper ! Dad says she doesn’t study anymore, yet all those drafts tell me otherwise. I take one out of the can to look at her writing, this is Spanish.
           Something catches my eyes, a letter she ripped in two without even opening it. It's a letter from a college... My heart races. I take the paper from the envelope and put the two pieces together.
           She got a scholarship for that school...
           She got a fucking scholarship.
           As I let the letter fall from my hands, my eyes land on another one, from Stanford, I recognize that header... That fucking header that already hurt me so much. She's received too. That one is opened... and ripped anyway.
           She fought so hard for this, and because of me, because of that violent crappy life I offer her, she won't even consider going to college, fulfill her dreams.
           I get up and scream. I scream at the ceiling like a mad man and feel angry tears runs my cheeks. I feel dizzy and lost. I'm poison, I'm ruining her life... Dad was just right and I want to die right now. She lied to me, she hid it from me, what more can she hide ? What sacrifices is she willing to make ? She'll wake up at thirty, with an old poisonous me at her side, if I'm still alive, and her dreams will be long gone. Only crappy motels, cheap food and blood. She'll never travel the world or learn foreign languages like she always dreamed of. Or she will get badly hurt or killed...
           At the idea of her lifeless bloody body in my arms, I almost faint, holding on to the wall.
           I just can't let her ruin her life. She deserves better, better than me ; she deserves the best and I'm the worst.
           They say she needs to give an answer within a month. It's still time. But she will never go there if she's with me, or worse, she'll fail because of me.
           I have to leave her.
           I have to leave her.
           Fuck.
           I have to leave her.
           I replace the letters in their envelopes and in the trashcan, and take a paper. I have to stop shaking. Shit, I have to stop crying. I can't write.
           I take my phone and dial dad's number.
           When he picks up he seems panicked, hearing me cry so loud, I can't even speak distinctly.
"Dean what happened ?"
"You were right dad... You... fu... Please, come pick me. Please dad..."
I sound like a little boy.
"I'll be there in twenty."
           I have to write that fucking letter. I have to tell her something. I'm going to hurt her so much... I can't tell her the truth or she'll look after me to talk me out of this. I'm going to make my baby cry. She's going to hate me, baby please don't hate me too much...
 ********************************
           Dean wraps his strong arm around me like a snake a keeps me still. He's still panting and my breathing is short. I try to free myself from him but he wraps his other arm around me.
"Don't go now" he says with his jaw clenched.
"Dean..."
"I want you again."
I turn my back on him to try and get up but he spoons me and holds me tight.
"I want you..." he repeats, biting my shoulder. "Don't go."
As I don't answer he starts slipping a hand under my shirt to touch my bare chest. I let him touch me, but when he pulls on it I take his hand.
"No."
"Don't you like it ? When I touch you ? When I..." he adds a hickey with the others on my neck.
I moan and push back to feel him against me, his half hard cock on my lower back.
           A knock on his door makes us both jump.
"Go away !" he grunts.
"Dean, Rowena's here. She found something !" Sammy says through the door.
Dean sighs and frees me from his burning embrace. I get up and look at him.
"Hey Jay, calm down" he says.
Just then I realize the panic on my face. He sits and take the sheet with him to get up.
"It's gonna be okay. You'll finally know why your friend forgot you, isn't that a good thing ?"
He strokes my cheek with his thumb and bends to kiss me. I'm terrified and lost. I push him with my both hands.
"Stop kissing me Dean ! Just, stop !"
A shadow of hurt crosses his face before any expression disappears from his face. I never imagined him like a guy who can't stand rejection, yet here he is... What does he want ? I won't be his bitch again ! I can't let him do this to me !
           I take my pants and put it back quickly while Dean gets dressed behind me. I just don't understand him. And he doesn't understand me... We're just not meant to be anything, and I'm going to discover why I vanished from his life.
             When I enter the library, Dean behind me, Sam looks at us with a strange expression. Rowena is there, with an ancient book on her hands, and a knowing smile on her fancy face.
"Nice hickeys" Sam whispers in my ear when I walk pass him.
"I found something that might help you know what happened" she says proudly. " It's a kind of truth spell, it is supposed to reveal the thing as they were, just as they happened. It allows you to travel the past... But I'll need several ingredients, I already gave the list to Sam. You'll have to find me something that belonged to your friend, and something close to her body."
"Her body ?" I ask, with visions of Dean's skin on my mind.
"The spell requires something from the body like a hair or a tear, blood, saliva, anything... But since your friend is dead, I'm going to try with something she wore or had close to her..."
I can have his hair, blood, cum, skin... Anything she needs. But they can't know it's Dean's. Thinking that, I look at him, he's reading the list in silence and I already miss him.
"And I need a hint of angel grace" she adds. "I thought maybe with archangel grace we would be sure it works..."
Jack nods, ignoring Sam's objection.
"Let's do this" Dean says. He looks at me with a stern look. "Let's get you what you want so you can go."
Feedback is what keeps me going <3

Mother May I?
Good after noon everyone! If it is in fact afternoon for you. Either way I hope everyone’s day’s are going better than mine. Here is the next chapter of ‘The Part Timer Series’, if you’re looking for the first part go ahead and search the tag or look it up on my Master List :) 
As I mentioned earlier this story is based off of some head-cannons that @ikesenhell and I talked about over some nourishment. Though it is worth mentioning that they don’t match the now cannon restaurant stories (have you all been able to play the Gatcha? If not have you seen some of the screen-caps?)
Tagging @little-mini-me-world per their request! Hope all is good!
As promised in my little give-away, in this and all subsequent chapters you are going to see @elievalentine‘s OC - Akiharu Natsuyuki and @one-eyed-captain-kinky ‘s OC - Zhari joining the gang. 
Under the cut to keep away dash clutter! 
Happy Reading Fam!

Mother May I?
[YN]
Your alarm screeched to life at the much too early time of 745am. You dind’t need to be at work until 11am but you wanted to make sure you had plenty of time to get ready. It was Monday, and subsequently, your first day of training at Azuchi. Taking care to secure your long hair in a braid so you could pin it into a bun. Once your hair was in place you dolled your face up with a quick flip of your wrist for an almost perfect winged cat eye, accompanied by a splash of mascara. You finished the look there, deciding to leave the rest of your face natural. You didn’t need anything melting off of you or turning splotchy if the day got hard.
Hair and makeup presentable you got dressed to Hideyoshi’s uniform specifications. Putting on a black collared button-up, you rolled the sleeves up just past your elbows as instructed and tucked the shirt into the well-fitted slate  dress pants you had just slipped on. Finishing the look off with a black leather belt to keep your pants from drooping and your black non-slip shoes. You gave yourself a final look over in your mirror and laughed. If you didn’t know you were headed to Azuchi you’d think you were a mob boss, this was way too much black for one person to be wearing.
You arrived to work twenty minutes ahead of your scheduled start time, greeting Hideyoshi at the door. “Good morning Mr. Toyotomi.” he stared at you for a moment before breaking into a genial smile.
“Good morning (YN), just Hideyoshi is fine. Let’s go ahead and get you started.” he turned over his shoulder, “Ieyasu, can you seat anyone that comes in while I get them situated?”
“Whatever.” was the only response gave, but it didn’t seem to bother Hideyoshi much.
“That is our bartender Ieyasu, he’s a little prickly, but you can’t take what he says at face value. He’s just a bit contrary.” you had to chuckle as the aforementioned party shot daggers at the two of you.
“It’s nice to meet you Ieyasu. I look forward to working with you.” you offered a formal nod of the head as you smiled his way.
“Sure.” was his only response as he turned around, continuing to clean glasses and put them back on the shelf.
Hideyoshi walked you to a check-out station at the back of the restaurant where he punched in a quick code on the screen before turning back to you. “Go ahead and fill out the boxes on the screen and we’ll get you set up in the computer.” stepping aside to let you up to the counter.
“All finished.” You turned and stepped back letting Hideyoshi back in front of the screen.
“Sounds good, while we’re waiting for your badge to print let me take you around and introduce you to everyone.” and he did just that.
Most of the faces you recognized from your interview. Mitsunari, the silver-haired young man with glasses, was the finance manager and he sat in the shared office space with Hideyoshi and Mitsuhide, the other shift manager who had interviewed you. Though you didn’t get to say hello as he was off today. Upstairs was Nobunaga’s office, he was in, but it was clear he was busy, so you only stayed briefly to express your gratitude for being offered the position. Coming back down the stairs you were walked through the kitchen seeing Masamune the executive chef of the restaurant while also being introduced to the patisserie chef.
“Hello, I’m Akiharu Natsuyuki, the resident patisserie chef. Come to me if you need anything sweet or you need to get away from that one.” she pointed at Masamune “it’s nice to have another female on staff, I hope we get along!”
Akiharu was a short, slender woman, with soft features and bright brown eyes. Her hair was the color of chocolate mouse and looked like it would feel just as fluffy.
“Likewise.” You greeted her with cheer. “Let’s get along!”
“Of course.” she smiled once more before turning back to her mixing bowls.
“Hideyoshi,” you spoke up once you were outside of the kitchen “Are Akiharu and I the only female’s on staff?”
“No there’s one other. Zhari.” At the sound of her name, a young woman about your age popped up from underneath one of the counters. Wavy honey brown hair was pulled into a ponytail so high she looked taller than you, but as she walked closer, it wasn’t difficult to tell you had a few good inches on her.
“You rang?” the young woman quirked an eyebrow at Hideyoshi.
“Perfect timing. Zhari this is (YN). (YN), Zhari.” he looked back at her “She’s going to be training with you for the week, but let me know if you need any help. Have fun.” with that Hideyoshi headed back up towards the front of the restaurant.
[Hideyoshi]
I had to admit, I was impressed. You were a hard worker, and in the four days, since you had started, you could already see how competent you were. Zhari had asked for permission to have you on your own, and you now covered half her tables by yourself. We had been uncharacteristically busy as of late, but that didn’t seem to faze anyone, even you.
“Can I help you with that?” I knew better than to take a full tray of food from waitstaff but it was so hard to watch someone your size carry that much.
“I think I’ve got it but thank you Hideyoshi.” you smiled up at me “I’m going over to twenty-two if you want to follow just to make sure.”
“Ah um, no, I don’t want to get in your way. Just let me know if you need help carrying anything.” I hesitated before I walked back towards the front.
“If you don’t stop acting like a helicopter parent she’s going to file a complaint against you with Mitsuhide.” Ieyasu grumbled as I walked past the bar.
“Who’s going to come to complain to me?” Mitsuhide slinked in beside me
“Nobody” I quipped as Ieyasu answered “(YN)” himself.
“Good to know, I’ll go start the paperwork now.” and without another word, he made his way back to the office.
“Wait, Mitsuhide!” I shouted after him, but he wasn’t listening. Before I could chase after him the bell to the front chimed rooting me to my post for the next two hours.
“Good afternoon, how many will be dining with us today,” I asked the group of young girls. The looked to be about sixteen, it was summer break, wasn’t it? At least that explains why kids their age were here at this time of day. It would be reprehensible if they were skipping school just to come here for lunch.
“Five please, you wouldn’t happen to have anything in Ms. (LN)’s section would you?” the apparent leader of the group making a request for you.
“Of course right this way.” I lead them to a six-seater in Zhari and (YN)’s section “Can I get you ladies started off with something to drink?”
I walked back to the soda fountain and saw you loading up a tray. “Thanks, Hideyoshi,” you smile dazzled “I heard the order, if it’s alright with you I’ll take it from here?”
“Please.” I sat back and watched as you balanced the drinks and sauntered off to the table of happy teens.
“I see she’s a fast learner. Very nice job Hideyoshi. Is Zhari here for me to give my regards?”
“Regards no. A raise yes,” Zhari responded from around the corner carrying a tray full of food from the kitchen.
“Zhari that is no way to talk to your boss.” I felt my frustration rise at her tone. I didn’t need that precedent being set and you thinking that sort of behavior was acceptable.
“Chill out Hideyoshi, Nobunaga’s cool.” She walked by him giving him a fist bump before screaming back into the kitchen “Masamune! You better have something hotter than me back there ready for table six when I get back.”
“At your service!” He appeared at the window siding three plates in her direction. “Hey Nobu, Akiharu has a question for you.”
[YN]
Everyone gets along so well sometimes you had to wonder if you’d ever fit in. It had been four days, and you were starting to get a feel for the water. Mitsuhide worked nights, and while he was quiet most of the time, he was observant. You weren’t sure how, but problems seemed to resolve as if they were never there to begin with. He did like to tease, but in a very different manner than the others. It was sharper, witty. He kept you on your toes.
Ieyasu was, as Hideyoshi warned, a contrarian but he was always finding an underhanded way to help out. Even if the help still came with an insult. he got along with everyone from what I could tell save Mitsunari, but even I was starting to think that was a front.
Mitsunari was almost always in the back. You had only seen him away from his desk once, and it was to run an errand for Mitsuhide. He was accommodating, always looking to assist in some way, though someone typically stepped in before he was given the opportunity. You were still trying to work that one out, but his smile never failed to sell out Akiharu’s dessert special for the day.
Masamune was continually flirting, but the inappropriateness always reached new levels when he and Zhari were together, it was funny and made the whole experience a bit more relaxing and casual. While they were silly in their own ways, both were considerate and knew the best way to push me past any hesitation I might be feeling. If I was confident in my work, it was because of their encouragement.
Nobunaga was a great boss, doing what he felt was best for everyone as a whole. Everything was in the best interest of his customers and his employees. Though if he kept eating all of the sweets Akiharu cooked up we were going to have a problem. I was four days in, and I could tell something was going on there. Nobunaga took every chance he could to visit her back in the kitchen when Hideyoshi wasn’t there to reprimand him, he was practically kitchen staff. Not that it mattered, Akiharu baked up anything he wanted, so far sugar stars seemed to be the most popular dessert she made for him.
Then there was Hideyoshi. He was a weird one. Always mothering, there when you needed him, and when you didn’t. It was endearing, but you could see how it could get old. You had caught a few comments made to him by Ieyasu in passing, and you appreciate having someone look out for you. Not that you minded, as long as you weren’t talking disrespectfully to Nobunaga, he was very concerned with your well being so you let him help if it made him feel better and didn’t mess up your flow.
You were going to enjoy working here very much. Excited you stood near the soda machine and listened to Hideyoshi take the order for five girls who had been seated at one of your table. They were familiar, had they been in your biology class this past year? Filling up glasses as they ordered, you picked the tray up and made your way out to the table.
“Thanks, Hideyoshi,” he looked baffled “I heard the order, if it’s alright with you I’ll take it from here?”
“Please.” He motioned with his hand as if to say ‘after you’ stepping out of the way so you could get passed. Blinking a few times as you walked by.
[Hideyoshi]
I wasn’t dumb, I knew Nobunaga was going to get candies from Akiharu. At this point, I was more concerned with how you were going to do covering a table of young girls who clearly knew you, than dealing with his sugar problem. Would you be distracted? Nervous? Happy? I was interested in your reaction, you face seemed to make the most intriguing expressions, and I always found myself curious. You never reacted the way I thought you would, and I liked that.
Placing the drinks down with a flourish with a musical quality to your voice, everyone thanked you. You were friendly, and I was sure your smile could rival Mitsunari’s on dessert sales if you learned how to harness it. Tucking the tray under your arm as you leaned down towards the girls you took their order. You popped your pen and notepad back into the white apron we had given you, dropping straws onto the table. There was what looked like a pleasant exchange before you excused herself and headed to the kiosk to place the orders with the kitchen.
Personable and timely. Such a diligent worker.
“If you keep staring like that you’re going to burn a hole in them.” I jumped as Zhari walked passed with the food for her table.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’m just supervising.” I felt the need to defend my actions, had I really been staring that long?
“Uh huh, sure. Just don’t scare them away with your constant mothering okay? I really like them.”
“Same!” Masamune jumped into the conversation backing Zhari’s comments up.
“Again I don’t know what you two are talking about. I’m going back up front.”
It had been a quick day, with summer vacation in full swing more people were visiting in the afternoon for lunch than they had been before. I was relieved from my post up front by the evening host and headed back to the break room to my locker trading my no-slip shoes for my dress shoes and a tie.  As I shut the door, you made your way back doing the same as I had hanging your apron after switching your work shoes with regular tennis shoes.
“You headed out, or just back to the office?” you turned to me as you hooked your lock back on the door.
“The office, need to finish up a few scheduling things. Everything go alright today? We didn’t overwhelm you with tables did we?” I looked up as I finished tying my tie.
“Not at all. I think I’m really starting to get the hang of it, but thanks for your concern.” you smiled, and the room got brighter, why was that happening? I really needed to get my vision checked. While I hadn’t been paying attention you made your way to the door turning just before taking the employee exit.
“Have a good night Hideyoshi. I’ll see you tomorrow. Don’t work too hard until then!”

Part 2 of Last Train Home, a prompt request from @ikiyou! 
tw: suicide mention (Dazai is here though so that’s pretty normal) Technically I could end it here and leave an open ending but... maybe one more???
Read on AO3!
Tonight was going to be a long night.
I had that feeling as soon as I entered the train car and there were only three people on it. Especially when two of them got off at the next stop, leaving only me and other person. I say person, but it absolutely was not. Or it used to be.
A few minutes after the people left the third one stood and sat across from me. My usual tactic of putting headphones in and staring at my phone didn’t see to work for this one. I could feel its eyes on me. My skin felt like it was on fire. It was so tempting to look up, see what it was doing, but I knew better. Out of my peripheral I could see that it was fully formed, not very distorted, so either it was a human or so it’s face had to be. Those ones usually looked the most frightening.
I pulled my phone closer to my face and concentrated really hard on this gatcha game that I would never admit I spent real money on. I must have gotten a little too focused while trying to pull a certain character because I jumped when I heard a chuckle almost directly in my ear.
The person had sat next to me and I didn’t even notice. I didn’t hear or see it move so it must have been a ghost. What was even worse was that it was leaning close and looking at my phone. I saw it’s reflection in my phone as the loading screen went dark. He was smiling.
“Wow, your luck really sucks.” They spoke in a condescending tone. “Not even a single SSR event character in all those pulls.”
I shook slightly. Not even out of fear but out of pure rage. How fucking dare a ghost insult me! I had been trying for days to pull that character and gotten nothing but trash. It was the last night! I knew ghosts could be rude but that was just petty. I had to bite my tongue in order to not snap back. I’ve been through this before. Ghosts taunt to get a reaction, make you slip up. I just continued playing the game. I needed more gems anyway. I wasn’t about to let this ghost see my card information. The last thing I needed was spiritual credit theft.
I heard a whine from my right side. I could see that he was squirming like a child having a fit. Was he annoyed that I wasn’t paying attention to him? Or was he annoyed by my playing? He better not insult my team set up. These were the strongest characters!
After the round was finished I heard a loud sigh and a heavy weight on my shoulder. I instantly froze. Ghosts had never been able to touch me before. They usually walked right through me, which always made me feel sick. Was this actually a human? If so they had even worse social skills than I did.
“I know you’re pretty but you don’t have to be rude.” He whined and sighed again directly in my ear. I couldn’t help myself from whipping my head to the side with a confused expression. As soon as I did I knew I made a mistake. As soon as we made eye contact he made a devilish grin. “Gotcha.”
“Fuck...” I muttered as sweat dripped down my forehead. I was shocked to see a normal face staring back at me. In fact everything about this person looked completely human, but the aura surrounding them felt terrifying.
“Finally!” He threw his hands in the air as he stood and did a little dance. “I finally found someone that can see me!” 
My hands dropped into my lap and I almost dropped my phone as I tilted my head and stared. From everything I knew about ghosts they were evil and tried to steal your soul. Well, mostly. Some of them didn’t really bother me. I didn’t really know much about ghosts. Maybe some of them were friendly. Or just annoying but benign.
He turned to me with a big grin on his face. I finally had time to take in what he looked like. He was a bit of a bean pole. He had messy short brown hair and ill-fitting clothing with bandages peeking out from underneath. Even with the smile his eyes looked hollow and empty, sunken in like someone sleep deprived. Pretty ironic for someone who took the big sleep.
He leaned over in front of me and grabbed my face in his hands, squishing my cheeks and shaking my head slightly. I could only sit there, stunned and unable to move.
“I’ve been so alone! Wandering the city, unable to talk to anyone.” He finally let go to run his hands through his hair before dragging them down his face. “I threw myself in the fucking river and woke up on the shore! Had I know this was going to happen I wouldn’t have done it! I wanted to LEAVE this world not get stuck in an even worse version of it!”
“Hah?” Was all I could manage. My brain was still trying to process the fact that a ghost even touched me. It was going to take a while to catch up to the fact that he died from suicide. That definitely would explain why he couldn’t move on, and perhaps even why he looked so normal. Come to think of it... he looked kind of familiar but I couldn’t quite place it.
“If you can see me does that mean you know what’s going on? I know I have to be dead.” He sat down across from me again as I picked my jaw up off the floor. I tucked my phone into my pocket and straightened up, my brain finally caught up to the conversation. “I’ve seen... things. Crazy monster things. They lurk around, follow living people. Sometimes I hear them say things like how delicious I must be so I stay away.”
“Do other ghosts try to eat you?” Somehow that was the only part of what he said that got processed. I could almost feel the gears turning in my head.
“So those are ghosts? I thought they were like demons or monsters or whatever.” He crossed his legs and proceeded to rest his elbow on his knee and his chin on his hand. He made the loudest sigh yet as he stared at the floor. “Is that what happens to us? We turn into monsters?”
“I... I don’t know.” I admitted. I’ve never asked a ghost if they were always like that. This is the first time I’d talked to a ghost since I was a kid. “I don’t know how any of this works. I just know I can see ghosts.”
“Ghosts...” He said it like he was testing the word in his mouth. Feeling to see if it really fit him. After a moment looking extremely serious he made a loud exasperated noise as he threw his hands and legs out and flopped back in the seat. “Man, this sucks.”
In the middle of his grumbling I heard the intercom announce that my stop was coming next so I stood and headed for the door.
“Well... good luck with... being dead.” I said as I gripped the pole next to the door. He stood up in a panic and followed.
“Wait! You can’t just leave me here! I’ve been so borrreeedd!” He made another exaggerated show of being pitiful and annoying. He must have been real popular when he was alive. “It took so long to find even one person that could see me! I’ll never find someone else!”
When the doors open I almost jumped onto the platform. The ghost was quick to follow behind.
“Look, I can’t be seen with a ghost! What if you attract other ghosts?! I can’t help you! Go try to find a way to move on or something.” I pulled my hood over my head and walked as fast as I could. Unfortunately the ghost was tall and his long legs kept up with me.
“Come oonnnn! You seem fun!” He end up ahead and stopped in front of me. “Besides, don’t you think I’ve tried? I’m stuck here.”
“You’re not going to stop following me are you?” I rolled my eyes as I tried to step around him. He grinned again and shook his head as he continued following.
“Nope!” He chuckled. “Not that you’re hard to follow. You’re quite slow, like a slug.”
He was really getting on my nerves.
“Well at least I’m not like some dead fish flopping around out of the water, you mackerel!” I growled and looked surprised. It took me a moment to realize he had committed suicide by drowning and I quickly blurted out an apology.
I expected him to be upset or even offended but instead he just burst out laughing. He held his stomach as he doubled over, laughing until tears fell from his eyes. Somehow that just pissed me off even more.
“I knew I was going to like you.” He said as he wiped away his tears as he started walking ahead of me. “Aren’t you coming, slug?”
I stomped ahead, shoving my hands in my pockets and on the way home I contemplated the morality of strangling a ghost. 
If he couldn’t die maybe I could even get away with kicking his ass over and over.
The night was just growing even longer.

Carnival Date with Monsta X
Shownu
Pretty quiet and shy throughout the whole day
But he’ll do the little things like holding your hand, keeping your things (bag, jacket, etc)
Would probably take random, awkward selfies with you even if you’re not looking
Still holds your hand and stuff on the rides you go on
King of winning all the prizes, he’ll win you so many stuffed toys from the carnival games including a giant one or two
Heck parents might even ask him to win a toy for their kids and he totally would and it’s super cute to watch him so you don’t mind
So you might end up spending more time around the games and food
Buys tons of food and snacks for you guys but encourages you to eat well
“But Shownu, there are still more rides to go on?? And it’s not exactly eating well if we’re only eating junk food hehe”
Even if you have to do most of the talking, he’ll always listen and remember what you say regardless of what you’re telling him and how loud your surroundings may be
Wonho
You’ll somehow manage to convince him to go on the highest rides (like the Hellevator, Drop Zone, Atmosfear) but when the ride starts to bring you guys up he’ll start crying
When the ride actually starts to move and such like dropping down he’ll probably be laughing and shouting really happily the shift is so quick
Totally tries to flex and such when you guys play the games (especially that strength testing game), might even flirt with a worker in attempt to get a discount or prize
He’ll make the biggest deal out of winning a prize, “Oh my GOSH look at this Eevee doll I just won!! It’s so CUTE and SMALL and FLUFFY!!!!!”
But if he’s playing one of those multiplayer games where only one player gets the prize, he’ll give his prize up to another kid that plays with him if he wins
Never lets go of your hand which is cute at first, but the moment he sees a ride he wants to go on the next thing you know you’re being pulled around at the speed of light
He’ll buy food “for you” but if you look back at him after 0.008 seconds he’s engulfing the cotton candy
If you go in the haunted house with him he’ll probably try and scare you from behind by poking you etc, but the moment he feels something or gets spooked he’ll actually run so fast and far (he’s still going to come back to you dw)
Will try to stay in the carnival for as long as you guys can, might hide behind rides and such even when all the guests are leaving and rides are being locked up for the day
But you guys would eventually get caught and… let’s just say you might not have any more dates at that carnival anymore
Minhyuk
Vows that he’ll go on ALL the rides with you
And by all he means all, including the scariest rides and all of the children rides
So extra he probably screams on every ride regardless of the intensity etc (that moving tea cup ride meant for kids? He’ll still be screaming at the top of his lungs)
Makes faces at the camera if a ride has them
Will buy the prints of those photos taken on rides, especally if you look “funny”
Super good with time management so you guys will manage to go on the most popular rides early, before they have all of their huge line-ups (he probably did his research in advance!)
You’ll even manage to get those temporary tattoos and get cute and sparkly matching ones
Tries to win you prizes at games but wins exactly 0 stuffies
But he’s not discouraged about it, he’ll just say “I know a place where we can get guaranteed prizes!” and he’ll just take you to the little gatcha machines lol so you guys end up with a bunch of random but cute keychains and little toys
Buys food for you too but doesn’t get separate ones, he insists you share everything! So drinks, cotton candy, ice cream, fries etc
Kihyun
Will buy you tons of food to share, always in the largest sizes too
He’d ask which game you’d want to play and exactly which prize you want
Would even try and win a prize for you himself if you really wanted it
He’d be like “I got this” but he’d spend SO much money trying but to no avail,,,
So he’d just buy the prize for you instead
And he’d spend so much money overall for you but he doesn’t mind, he might make jokes about it (“my wallet’s going to be empty because of you!!!”) but he doesn’t mean it
When you guys are in line for a ride he’ll watch the batches that ride it before you guys and comment about it too (“Whoa that goes faster than I thought it would… does it really turn like that? Wait, don’t tell me it… yep… ah, it loops upside down…”
Cares about you lots he’ll always be checking in with you, asking if you’re hungry or if you need to use the washroom
He’ll ask you if you’re nervous or something when a ride starts, he’ll be super calm and reassuring when you are but the moment he hears the sound of the ride starting he’ll probably scream
Asks to play stuff like bumper cars because it’ll be a “cute couple experience”, but when you guys actually play he’s so aggressive and competitive
Hyungwon
Accidentally falls asleep if a line up for a ride is too long
If it’s way too long, he’ll somehow convince you to bail no matter how far you are in the line
He’d say he has a “better alternative” but really he’d just take you to all the kiddie rides because they have no line ups
But it’s actually pretty fun, especially when you guys are the only ones on the ride
Other than those rides he would probably convince you to go to the magic mirror house or giant slides
He’d also encourage you to go to the arcade and play a bunch of games
Wants to gets stuffies but tells you that if you want one you have to win it yourself, says every stuffy he wins personally will be another addition to the collection on his bed
He’d win SO MANY but would still sacrifice a few for you later on
Would pick a fight either with a kid or a staff if he loses a game he thinks he won, “What do you mean that child won this round? I clearly got more points, I should be getting that stuffed bear not her??”
Claims he can even win something from the claw machine but won’t and will go on and on about how it’s rigged (it totally is though)
Jooheon
You’d have trouble choosing what rides to go on first, so he’d suggest to line up for the biggest and scariest ones
But even when you’re just in line he’ll probably watch what the ride and see what it actually does and will totally scream
“ON SECOND THOUGHT I DONT WANT TO RIDE THIS ROLLERCOASTER?? Let’s go on that one instead??”
“Jooheon that one is for little kids”
But he’ll probably do the biggest pouty face and throw in some aegyo to convince you
Goes on and on about how you two should make funny faces at the kiddie roller coaster’s camera
But when you two actually get to that point he’ll probably be too pre-occupied with screaming or covering his eyes because it’s at a drop
You guys keep sneaking pictures of eachother without the other knowing, like you’ll take a few of him while he’s focused on the fries he’s eating and he’ll take pics of you when you’re watching a ride
Plays a few of the carnival games too but when he wins a cute stuffed toy you’ll be like “thanks Jooheon!” but he’d be so confused at first,,, like he won it for himself but ok (he’d totally give it to you anyways)
It would take so much effort to convince him into going in the haunted house… and it’s really difficult to get through it with that scared little bean… “Jooheon what’s that sound?” “Oh sorry I was just rapping under my breath”
I.M
Thinks that “win a free iPad!” game is totally legit and will spend a good amount of time playing it
But will always follow what you say otherwise, you basically hold hands with him and lead him to wherever you want to go
Pretty playful and giggly when you guys wait to go on rides
But when you’re on a ride he’s somehow able to remain so emotionless and pokerfaced
Would play tons of games and have a little contest with you to see who can win the most prizes
Challenges you to every game in the arcade
“i can’t believe you beat me in my specialty… dance dance revolution… let’s settle this in streetfighter, my second specialty”
Wins so many tokens he basically has enough to buy a nerdy, expensive prize with them
Takes tons of pictures with you, getting that couple aesthetic™
But some of the pictures he takes of you will be super unflattering, especially if he sneaks pics of you when you guys are on a ride

Apology Ring: Rikiya Scratcher Event
A new Rikiya event! I was very excited about what nonsense this one would be and it did not disappoint. 
Tumblr media
I couldn’t tell you why Kuze’s a reward, but I sure did get 6 of him, so I can’t complain. Let’s get started!
Summary: While Rikiya has come to adore Kiryu as his aniki, Haruka is still cold and distant towards him. In his desperation to win back her favor, he learns that Haruka’s after a prize from the scratcher event happening at the local grocery store, and is determined to win it for her no matter the cost
2008 Shimabukuro Rikiya had been charmed by Kiryu Kazuma, and his yearning to have him as his aniki has led to him often visiting Morning Glory.
Rikiya: Aniki! Let's go get drinks together! Standing by for your answer!
Tumblr media
Kiryu: Rikiya...... I already gave you an answer earlier. I'm busy today. You should get back to work. <Kiryu walks away> Rikiya: W-Wait for me anikiiii~!
Tumblr media
Rikiya: Haaa.... Alone again..... Though, that's just one of the things that makes him so cool. (Tl note: overwhelmingly tempted to use the "attractive/good looking/handsome" meanings on かっこいい instead of cool lol) Rikiya: ....Oh? Haruka: Ah..... Rikiya-san. Good afternoon. ...............Bye. <She leaves>
Tumblr media
Rikiya: Ah, Haruka-chan.... Rikiya: She sure didn't look happy to see me... Guess she still hates me.
Tumblr media
Rikiya: Well... I guess being hated by her can't be helped. She was real scared I was going to evict everyone in Morning Glory after all... Rikiya: Kiryu no aniki swore an oath of brotherhood though... So I can't just leave things like this. Rikiya: If I apologize from the bottom of my heart, maybe Haruka-chan will forgive me... Rikiya: .........Hn? Koji: I want to get Haruka a gift for always working so hard, but I can't think of a single thing to get her.... Koji: Have you thought of anything Taichi? Taichi: I got this! Isn't this rock pretty? I found it out on the beach! Koji: ....A rock, huh. Well, Haruka will still be thrilled to get it. Now what am I gonna do.... Taichi: What about the scratchers down at the shopping center? Koji: Scratchers? What's that? Taichi: Haruka said she wanted to the prize from them, and wouldn't doing scratchers be fun? Koji: No way. I don't trust that it won't be a total bust. Taichi: But think about how happy she'd be. Rikiya: ....Scratchers at the shopping center? Hmm, come to think of it I was supposed to go to the super market. Rikiya: ......If I can get that thing Haruka-chan wants, she might forgive me, so it's worth a shot. Rikiya: With a little bit of luck and money, let's take a gamble on scratchers! <He runs downtown> Manager: Hey welcome! Right now we're running a scratcher campaign~.
Tumblr media
Manager: The top prize, a trip to Tokyo, has already been claimed, but we still have a ring from a brand that's very popular with women, a coffee maker, an electric razor, and a 100kg of rice among the fabulous prizes jostling around! You can't miss this opportunity! Rikiya: (.....The only thing he listed that a girl her age would want is that ring. That must be what Haruka-chan is after!) Rikiya: Sir! Give me a scratcher! Manager: Ah, Rikiya-kun. Ready to have some fun? One entry for every 1,000 yen you spend at the store! <scratching noises> Manager: Annnnd... no luck. For the bottom prize, here's your free pack of pocket tissues. Rikiya: Damn... Totally drained, huh. I really don't have any more cash to blow on scratchers. Manager: That's a shame, Rikiya-kun. I'll be here with the scratchers for a while longer if you change your mind and want to try again. Rikiya: ....Say, mister. I really just gotta get my hands on that ring. Is there any way we could make that happen? Rikiya: ....I beg you! Truly!! Manager: No, and the answer stays no no matter how many times you ask~. Manager: Right now the odds are stacked in the customer's favor with how many scratchers have been pulled, so good luck. Rikiya: ....Man, that's really how it is, huh. I getcha... Gimme a bit to scrape up some cash. <Rikiya leaves, makes a phonecall> Rikiya: ....I'm all out. Mikio's broke too. I guess I could try getting a loan.... hmmmmm.....
Tumblr media
Rikiya: What am I gonna do... My plan to show my sincere apologies to Haruka with that ring is turning out to be a huge bust. Rikiya: I gotta get more cash to do pulls with... If only there was some way to do free pulls...... (Tl note: Rikiya is the prime target for gatcha games) <he moves on> Rikiya: ....I ended up walking all the way around Ryukyu without getting a single idea. What am I gonna do.... Hm? Blond Chinpira A: Hehehe, look at all these scratchers. I'm a almost afraid I'll get sick of doing scratchers from this.
Tumblr media
Blond Chinpira B: Mhm~! Hey, did ya see that employee's face? He was so scared, it was hilarious! Hehehe. <they leave> Rikiya: ....What were those bastards up to? <Rikiya returns to the store> Rikiya: !? Manager: Uughh.... Rikiya: Hey, hey..... you're not looking good. All your merch has been scattered and all the shelves are all smashed up....
Tumblr media
Rikiya: What the heck happened while I was gone? Manager: Ah, Rikiya-kun... The truth is.... some blond haired chinpira came and stole all the scratchers..... Rikiya: Blond haired chinpira...? You mean those assholes just a minute ago did this? Manager: When they found out the top prize had already been claimed... they flew into a rage and started smashing things.... Manager: They stole all the scratchers and remaining prizes and said "You better have that top prize restocked by the time we're back".... Rikiya: What the hell? Manager: I don't know if the police could do anything, and I have no idea how I could get another trip to Tokyo lined up..... Manager: Rikiya-kun, I'm sorry. I really did want you to have fun with this scratcher campaign... Manager: Haa... I started this up intending to give back to my regulars... but now it's going to end like this... I guess it can't be helped. Rikiya: ..........It's just like you to still be thinking about your customers. Even at a time like this they're the ones you're worried about.... Rikiya: ...Sir, I'm going to crush those assholes. I swear it. Manager: Eh? Rikiya: I can't stand cowardly civilians like that. ....So I'm gonna kick their asses. Rikiya: While I'm at it I'll get back all the scratchers and all the prizes and return them to you. Manager: R-Rikiya-kun.... but.... Rikiya: Don't worry about it. This is my job as a member of the Ryudo Family. My boss would yell at me if I turned a blind eye to this. Rikiya: So, I'm off! <Rikiya leaves> Manager: Rikiya-kun..... <EVENT START>
Blonde Chinpira A: Ughhh......
Tumblr media
Rikiya: ......Hand over the scratchers and the prizes.
Tumblr media
Blonde Chinpira A: W-Who the fuck are you....
Tumblr media
Rikiya: Ryudo family captain, Shimabukuro Rikiya. Chinpira: R-....Ryudo Family!? Y-You're... a professional....... Rikiya: ......We good? I don't think ya want this again.
Tumblr media
Rikiya: If I ever hear that you're causing problems for that shop again then I'm going to silence you myself!!!! Chinpira: I-I got it.... it won't happen again. <back at the store> Rikiya: There you are, manager. The scratchers and the prizes. With this, you should be able to continue your campaign, right? Manager: R-Rikiya-kun...... Rikiya: I really nailed those shitheads, so you shouldn't need to worry about them coming after you for revenge. Rikiya: Of course if they do show up, just give me a ring. I'll handle 'em for you. Any time you need. Manager: Th-Thank you Rikiya-kun.... What can I ever do to repay you...... Rikiya: Don't sweat it. This is just the job of a member of the Ryudo Family. <Rikiya begins walking away> Manager: Ah, Rikiya-kun! Rikiya: ......I'm up shit creek here. What about Haruka-chan's present....
Tumblr media
Rikiya: What am I gonna do..... I'm outta cash......... I got it. I'm sure I got some pachinko balls tucked away.... ???: Rikiya-kun! <manager runs up> Rikiya: Manager? Manager: Ha... Ha.... This.... I wanted to give this to you. Rikiya: This is..... the ring that was one of the scratcher prizes!? Manager: Yep. You said you wanted it. So I figured to repay you somewhere... I'd like to give this to you. Rikiya: Manager..... But isn't this a real major prize? Manager: It's fine. Without you the scratcher campaign wouldn't have continued at all. Manager: Oh, are you turning this down? I know this doesn't remotely make up for everything you did, and I'm truly sorry. Rikiya: ....I ain't turning it down! Thank you, manager! Manager: Hehe, that makes me glad to hear. Well, I'm heading back to the store now. See ya. <Manager leaves> Rikiya: Hell yes... Now I can give this to Haruka-chan as an apology! Rikiya: Finally we'll be able to wrap this whole thing up and move past things with one big gesture! Rikiya: Wait for me! Haruka-chan! <Rikiya runs off> Rikiya: .......Pardon my intrusion.
Tumblr media
Haruka: Ah...... Rikiya-san.
Tumblr media
Rikiya: (....She's still so distant. Guess she still doesn't like me one bit....) Kiryu: What is it? Rikiya. I can't get drinks with you today. Rikiya: Nah, I'm actually here for Haruka-chan this time. Kiryu: To see Haruka? Rikiya: Yes... Um, Haruka-chan. I actually have something to give to you. Haruka: Something to give to... me? Rikiya: Here, this. It's some kind of ring from a famous brand. Haruka-chan, this was that thing you wanted, right? Haruka: Eh!?
Tumblr media
Kiryu: A ring? What's this about Haruka?
Tumblr media
Haruka: N-.... No. I, don't really like rings...
Tumblr media
Rikiya: Right. As soon as I heard you wanted this I rushed out frantically to-........ Rikiya: .......Eh!!??
Tumblr media
Rikiya: What do you mean, you don't really like rings...... But.... Isn't this the ring you said you wanted? Haruka: ...N-No. I don't remember ever saying I wanted that..... Rikiya: That's.... B-But, you wanted one of the prizes from the scratchers....... Haruka: Scratchers.....? Oh, of course.... Rikiya: Of course....? Haruka: I wanted the rice so that everyone could have it to eat. Is that what you were thinking of? Rikiya: R-Rice!!?? <flashback to the manager talking about all the prizes they had> Rikiya: The thing that Haruka-chan actually wanted..... was the 100kg of rice.......... Rikiya: I was so sure it was the ring.... Seriously, man......... Haruka: I-I'm so sorry. Kiryu: ....Say, Rikiya. What's with the sudden present? Haruka's birthday's still a ways off, right? Rikiya: .........I wanted to give it to Haruka-chan as an apology. Kiryu: ....Apology? Rikiya: Yes. When I came to Morning Glory and threatened to evict everyone, for kids that have nowhere else to go, wouldn't that have been terrifying? Rikiya: Since then, Haruka's hated me. But I wanted to earn Haruka's forgiveness... Rikiya: That's why.... I thought I could give her that ring as an earnest apology. Rikiya: But then I went and got her something she didn't even want, so instead of being happy she's bothered by it... I really am a fool, huh. (Tl note: we might not have gotten to hear Rikiya sing bakamitai but he did at least say the phrase here lol) Haruka: .....Rikiya-san. Even though I never said I wanted it..... I really am happy to get it. Rikiya: ....That's sweet of you to say, Haruka-chan. But you don't have to lie like that to me.... Haruka: No, it's true. Rikiya-san, you picked out that ring to give me because you thought it'd make me happy, right? Haruka: The fact that you were thinking about me like that and working so hard to make me happy, well, how could I not be! Rikiya: Haruka-chan.....
Tumblr media
Haruka: Really though.... I don't hate you, okay? Rikiya: Eh? Haruka: I... think you're a good person, Rikiya-san. So I don't have a reason to dislike you. Rikiya: Wait, but... Earlier when you saw my mug you looked real upset and ran off immediately, didn't you? Haruka: That was... sorry... I think I was trying to hold in a sneeze. Rikiya: .......a sneeze? Haruka: Right. Honestly I was dealing with a cold earlier.... I didn't want to get you sick, so I was trying really hard not to sneeze..... Rikiya: --Which explains why you were keeping your distance..... What the hell. Have I just been totally overthinking this........ Kiryu: ...Heh, I'm glad for you Rikiya. Your worries were misplaced, and this is all settled now. Rikiya: A-Anikiii.... Haruka-chan's.... a good kid....... Rikiya: I horribly threaten her and she doesn't hate me...... I don't even get her the present she wants and she's still thrilled..... Rikiya: Even if it was my job to scare her.... She's... She's such a good kid, that Haruka-chan.... <Rikiya drops to the ground> Rikiya: I'M SO SO SORRYYYYYYYYYY!!!!
Tumblr media
Haruka: R-Rikiya-san!? Kiryu: H-Hey. Rikiya, quit grovelling!
Rikiya kept his head bowed in apology for a long time, until Kiryu and Haruka were both troubled by the excessiveness.
<END EVENT>
Bonus stuff: 
I was so sure Haruka wanted to trip to Tokyo to give to Kiryu so that he could go visit. The rice was my second guess, but I was so ready for the emotional pain. Shout outs to @agentshilonglang​ for correctly guessing it though! 
This one wasn’t as long or a fraction as difficult to translate as the previous Rikiya board game event, but I am thrilled to have more Rikiya content. This card also has a new character story, and I pulled it so I’ll get that translated sometime soon-ish! I’m actually thinking of holding a poll on which story to do next when I hit 300 followers.
Finally this was the song that played on the main page of the event, tho they skipped the intro portion:
