Note

hello! so, i don't know if you take requests, or write for blue lock in your blog, but if you do, may i request an interviewer!reader x the blue lock boys? the specific characters i want are: sae, rin, nagi, and kaiser. but feel free to add or remove characters as you'd like. but if you don't take requests and or don't write for blue lock, just tell me, no problem! thank you, and take care! also, i love your work!

crushing on the job

various blue lock boys x gn!interviewer!reader !

rin, sae, nagi, bachira, kunigami

author's note: this is a first because ive never thought id get a request for blue lock 😯 unfortunately, some sacrifices have been made since i don't read the manga, and kaiser has been eliminated... (im sorry i literally know nothing about him 😞) SO i added in bachira and kunigami in to make up for it

note: i wrote this as if they were normal footballers, so nothing from blue lock and whatever happens after is mentioned. the drabbles really very in length and definitely aren't equal.

synopsis: how they act when they fall in love with an interviewer at first sight. headcanons + drabbles!

itoshi rin I pre game interview

it's VERY obvious that he's caught something for you, because the way he looks at you is different to other interviewers

he's often at a loss for words and asks you to repeat your questions a lot. his head is in the clouds, and none of them get answered properly

he's overall a lot kinder and lighter with his words and ways of speech. his stance is much more relaxed than usual

the chances of either of you asking each other out are slim, so one of his teammates would do a bit of digging to get your contact info for him. if not, he'll be thinking about you nonstop and it messes up his performance

your feet move and twist around on the grass outside of camera view, as you stand beside one of the most skilled strikers in japan. the struggle of trying to put off this interview had to be abandoned at some point, and it's been months, yet it still feels too soon.

once the cameraman gives you a thumbs up, you take a deep breath and start to speak, completely forgetting to introduce yourself and the player. "so, what do you think the score will be in the end?"

rin just stares at you in the eye blankly, and it took you the small movement of turning the microphone towards him to snap him out of it. "huh?" his eyebrows raise a little.

you've seen how his other interviews have gone, and you were more than nervous to have your turn, fully expecting yourself to be belittled to some degree. but is it just you, or does he seem a bit... different? "t-the score? your predictions on the score?" you repeat, a small stutter in your voice and decreasing in volume as you go.

"uh..." he wipes his nose with his thumb and looks off to the side for a few seconds, before turning back to you again. "the score... yes." he answers mindlessly, nodding his head. it wasn't even a yes or no question...

in confusion, you blink, not even knowing how to respond. you were trying so hard to not let how uncomfortable you are shine through. you really have not a single clue what this man is thinking. "how are you feeling? about the upcoming match, i mean."

"a bit excited, i guess... i've been training." he looks at you and replies quietly before looking away again and scratching the back of his neck. "and other things..."

this is a first. anxiousness? rin always struck you as a confident man, or at least from what you've seen he is, so what does he have to be nervous about?

itoshi sae | meeting by chance (not)

(im sorry guys this may or may not be the most ooc and corny thing ever + im going off of the tiniest clips of him in the anime)

he just so happened to recognise you after a match

you interviewed every single player on his team except for him. coincidence? he thinks not. he's the best player, isn't he? why wouldn't you want to ask him anything?

for some reason, he finds it extremely entertaining when you're intimidated by him as a whole. he doesn't visibly show it though. you've got to have some confidence if you intentionally ignore THE itoshi sae

it's not that he's in love (probably in denial), but he's intrigued by you. he's a lot more pushy about things, but he doesn't mean to make it overwhelming. that's just his presence alone doing that

every interviewer out there knows how dry yet valuable sae's answers are. they ask the same questions, he gets the same answers, all the time. that's precisely why you don't want to interview him yourself. being shut down every time you try to question something is more embarrassing than people think, and you cringe just thinking about it.

so imagine your relief when you successfully get through an entire match without crossing paths with him. you would get to send in your notes, go home all happy and jolly, and sleep peacefully without a care in the world. but luck can only last so long.

you were just about to take a much needed bathroom break, but before you could turn a corner, there's a figure blocking your path. "you avoided me." it's itoshi sae in front of you.

your mind draws a blank. there's no one from your team within sight, or rather anyone in sight, and not even the comfort of your notebook could save you.

not only were you so confident in the fact that you wouldn't meet him that you hadn't written down any questions under his name, but you also told your team to wait in the car because you wouldn't take too long. "oh... i did?" a clear lie. "well, the producer and cameraman aren't here and stuff, so..." you attempt to get yourself out of situation, sheepishly at that.

his facial expression didn't change. he just continues to look down at you, and it was impossible to hold eye contact for more than a second. "unfortunate. because i want to hear what you have to say."

"i-it's nothing important, really... it's nothing you haven't heard before—"

he cuts you off. "i want to hear you say it."

something about the way he said it really freaks you out. conflict was running through your thoughts, your fingers twisting in the metal rings of your notebook. "okay... just a short one."

while your head was turned, you managed to catch a glimpse of his eyes squinting slightly, dare you say softening, and you pull out a pen from your pocket. "make sure you write down every word."

oh, you definitely were; with shaky hands. "will you say something different?" you ask. it was stupid, but still, you were eager to know.

for a beat, he stays silent, then tilting his head to the side. "...we'll see."

nagi seishiro I photobomber

this guy is in the background 24/7. he's honestly just a a bit lost and a curious little thing

he gets closer and closer until you finally interview him. at first he'll just be a blur, and he comes all the way up to behind you. he doesn't even mean to sneak up on you like that, he just wants to talk to you. his shadow would be so scary when he looms over you from behind

he's so weirdly energetic when he talks to you? not by a lot, but definitely more than when he normally speaks. he can actually be bothered to answer you properly, which is unexpected by many

he doesn't really flirt. if he does, it's unintentional. he's honest with his words and it kinda makes things awkward

"yes, thank you. i'm here at the saitama stadium to—" your eyes glanced down at the shadow on top of yours, growing larger and larger, and eventually overtaking the size of yours.

all of a sudden, there's a hand on your shoulder. "are you an interviewer?"

your head whips back and you take a step forward. you really shouldn't have been as surprised as you were, since you literally saw it coming. but you recognise this face. messy hair, much like a eskimo puppy, and dark eyes with permanent eyebags. nagi seishiro, who just happened to be a must have on your 'to interview list'.

"yes... yes, i am an interviewer."

nagi's hand remains on your shoulder, and he glances up at the camera in front of you. "is this on?" he points at it.

with a small glance at the device yourself, you nod. "mhm. and live." now that he's right here in front of you, you have to seize the opportunity. "since you're already here, would you like to...?"

lifting his hand, it's almost as if he took offence to the offer, his eyebrows furrowing. "who wouldn't want to with an interviewer as pretty as you?" he says, loud and clear.

you thought you were hearing things. him calling you pretty? that can't be real. "o-oh..." was the only thing you could say, a chuckle automatically leaving your mouth right after. it seems like he hadn't realised the effect of what he's said, moving on as if nothing happened.

bachira meguru I a silly pest

shameless and playful

the type of flirt that has you giggling and forgetting what you have to say because he's so smooth with it OR he's just so confusing that you accidentally agree to his advances

the type to say "this goal is for you" or "if i win this, you give me your number" and makes a promise to score as many times as possible

either he really embarrasses himself and you find his reaction cute, or he looks unexpectedly cool when he makes all of his shots like it's nothing

during one of his celebrations, he holds his hand up to his ear (🤙) so it's pretty much set in stone that you give him your number

you came prepared. interviewing a player very known for childish antics and trolling wasn't going to be easy, but you're always up for a challenge, especially when it'll reward you with some good material to work with. once the cameraman gives you the thumbs up, you finally start to speak. "are you disappointed that you haven't won an away games in a while?"

"hm..." bachira pouts, pretending to think as he rolls the ball beneath his foot. the entire time since the camera's been on him, he hasn't looked up from the ground. yet. "i'm more disappointed i haven't had the chance to meet you earlier. really had me missing out on life, you know?" he glances up at you as if that was the most normal thing to say, a cheeky smirk playing on his lips.

keep your cool, keep your cool. "how do you feel about being one of the youngest players on the team?" purposely, you don't expand on his answer, and move on to the next.

"i don't know. how old are you?"

as much as you'd like to entertain him, it wouldn't be appropriate. "too old for you." you reply, keeping your tone light with a chuckle.

"ah... you'll just have to wait for me then, huh?" oh. you don't think he was lying about that.

the smile and light atmosphere of the interview drops in an instant, replaced by a slightly stunned look that you know won't look good airing. how does he say these things with a straight face?

you quickly school your expression into a more neutral one. it's not like you can reprimand him on live tv, as much as you'd like to. "you don't think that's a little inappropriate?" you say.

bachira just shrugs, rolling a shoulder. "inappropriate is subjective." he doesn't give you a moment of rest, shifting his bodyweight to the other foot and continuing to toy with the ball. "can you ask me another question? this one is boring... actually, i'll ask you a question."

"oh god..." you mutter, your hand twitching and ready to facepalm.

"how about..." his eyes stare deep into yours, as if he was searching for something inside of them. "if i score a hat trick, i get your number."

your face scrunches up, since you thought he would take the hint already that you have to keep this professional. "that's a request." you correct.

"exactly."

"what?"

"so... number?"

"yes—" in that split second, your real personality slipped out, your brain subconsciously wanting to accept his offer. a brief moment later, the damage was already done, yet you were trying to fix it. "no! no!"

but he was already running off, a little skip in each step. "thank you~!" your manager won't be happy at all.

kunigami rensuke I press conference

probably wouldn't shoot his shot publicly/verbally, no pun intended. it's a respect sort of thing and a barrier between careers

might be ooc, but he really reminds me of this moment (i know its basketball, but still) are you seeing what im seeing?

accidentally threw his towel or water bottle at you at some point during his warmups, and then the sight of your pretty self was stamped into his brain

the clips would get really popular, and your company pretty much pressured you into going to his next game, and then the one after that, and the one after that...

even with all of the lights flashing in his eyes, kunigami could see you as if some sort of spotlight was on you, glancing around and hesitantly trying to find a moment to speak up. how could he not recognise you? you were that pretty interviewer that he threw his towel at by mistake. your face truly was unforgettable, and his first interaction with you happened to go like that.

usually, he would let thinks like this go, since it's not really something he needs to deal with, but he still feels like he owes you something. "hey, let them speak." he voices, firm and unyielding. anyone in their right mind wouldn't mess with a guy that clearly works out on a regular basis.

"so, you were saying?" he puts on his best smile, and you're so stunned by his kindness that you forget what you were going to say in the first place. luckily, you managed to put together some sort of random question that was good enough.

"ah, yes." you take a minute to look at your notes; they were completely blank. not very helpful... "you did really well during the game, but you didn't score as many goals as you did in your previous match. do you believe that you could have performed better, or are you satisfied with your results?"

he takes a second, and after a moment he responds. "well," his eyes gleam with pride. "i'm pretty satisfied with my performance. but i could do better, and i plan to in future matches as well."

and your little interest in passionate people ignites. "how do you do it? how do you keep improving, when you're already so good?"

he chuckles, slightly embarrassed by your compliment. "really, it isn't that amazing. i just love football, you know. i can't help but to always strive to do better. the people who are close to me motivate me a lot." a staff member moves over to adjust the microphone as kunigami has his head down, writing something on an unopened bottle of drink that his team was sponsored by.

by the time he lifts his gaze up to you again, he's suddenly struck with a certain dazzle in your eyes, a spark of curiosity. it felt like an attack straight to his heart, and that's when he knew you might be the one. perhaps it was naïve, but he's never felt this way before.

you knew it was best to step down before you get too ahead of yourself, so you nod and hand your mic to your assistant at your side. other people need their turns too, right? you also fail to notice kunigami giving the bottle to the staff next to him, whispering a few words to them.

only a few minutes later did you find yourself with a free drink in your hand, his number scribbled over the label in a thick black marker.

Your art for it is so cute, what's Kamen Rider SD? I want to get into it :D

yesss.... fall into my trap... mwhahaha >:3c (also thank you ^v^)

SD in general means Super Deformed, it's a chibi style that's not unique to Kamen Rider (Gundam also has a bunch of SD stuff, mentioning it here bc i love those models :3)

But since you're asking in relation with my art, here's the ones I made art for:

SD The Great Battle

A series of videogames that's a crossover between Kamen Rider, Gundam and Ultraman characters, all in the SD style. An original character called Fighter Roar joins the team from the second game on. They're very fun and wacky game that don't really have a coherent plot but we love them for that :3 In IV they get a giant robot (Compatible Kaiser my beloved) and in V they're cowboys. I love the cowboy outfits so much. Games one to five have english fan translations, now I need someone to translate Gaia Saver because apparently that one has the Rider Killer lore....

Kamen Rider SD: Strange!? Man Spider (or simply Kamen Rider SD OVA)

If you've been around the fandom you probably already know this one. It's a 30 minutes short where RX and the other Battle Riders (Ichigo and ZX) have to rescue RX's crush from shocker, with the help of the Mechanic Riders (V3, X and Super1). Wild Team (Stronger, Amazon and Nigo) appears for like. 3 minutes total at the end but they're my darlings and I love them. Other very important thing in this short is the Rider Carrier, a giant robot grasshopper that acts as their base and I think every version of the riders shoul have a giant grasshopper base not just the SDs u.u This short is apparently an adaptation from the Mighty Riders manga, but I haven't investigated it yet so I can't confirm that. It's also connected to a couple more SD videogames, Sortie!! Rider Machines and Run! Mighty Riders (the team names come from here as far as I can tell)

Kamen Rider SD: Hurricane Legend / Kamen Rider SD: Legend of the Stormy Age

(listen. I know the direct translation is the first one. But the second one is on the back cover so if they gave it an official english title I'm using that :P)

This is probably the one you're asking for, but I wanted to use the excuse to talk about the other two :P

I'll be honest, going in blind on this one is probably the best experience. Do not look up panels you will get spoiled. The basic plot is V3 and Riderman travel around to recruit the other Riders to defeat Shocker. I want to talk about it more but again, I had so much fun going "WHAT!?!" while reading it that I must resist- Might post more about them but will tag it as spoilers

Other SD stuff that I care less about, for completionist sake:

• there's a third SD manga (Kamen Rider SD: Roaring Laughs School) that I know nothing of (I think it's a 4koma gag manga? I'll be honest I'm not very interested in it so I haven't done much research);

• the most recent SD game is SD Shin Kamen Rider Rumble, a game for the movie, but that one seems to be simply a side scroller so again, no interest from me;

• Lost Heroes 1 and 2 technically use chibi-ish versions of Riders, Gundams and Ultramen, and are part of the Compati Hero series (the same series as The Great Battle), but they don't have SD in the title;

•there's. sooooo many sports games in the Compati Hero series. I like the Battle Dodgeball ones :3 Also speaking of Compati Hero, special mention to Super Hero Operations because that's the next one I wanna play, I get to meet Zubat, Metalder and a bunch of others there :3

#kiri.text #kamen rider sd #.....should I tag each series.#sd the great battle #kamen rider sd (ova)#kamen rider sd: legend of the stormy age #...whoops it's been two hours since i started writing this i got carried away #also anon if you get into any of this feel free to come back and talk to me about them! :D I need someone to talk about them with!!!#anon or anyone that wants of course

watched haikyuu dumpster battle yesterday and BOY do i fricking LOVE VOLLEYBALL

spoilers ahead!

the way kenma's "keep interesting" was portrayed was waaay better than expected, like, i knew it was a tense moment between kenma and hinata but when he said it in the movie i pissed my pants that was SCARY AS HELL

Kenma you will always be famous

AND FUCKING KUROO. I LOVE THIS MAN SO MUCH. I letarlly screamed when he laughed at the end

Its a shame i get to see it in a country were it isnt very popular, since i was the only lunatic who screamed the whole time, i was shushed twice and almost got kicked out of the theaters.

Bitch its the premier!!?!? Of fucking haikyuu?!!? The dumpster battle??!!?! The match i have been waiting to see animated since 2018!?!!??! LET ME BE HAPPY

Ngl i cryed real tears when kageyama put the ball up for hinata and said "now fly", it was fantastic

I managed to conivnce some friends to go with me and i actually punched them out of excitement every time anyone recieved the ball in a rally, im really sorry guys

I remember being told that furudate used to make horror mangas and IT SHOWS, when i read the match for the first time i got goosebumps in a whole bunch of panels, and the movie MADE THOSE PANELS PERFECT IM SHAKING

AND THE WAY KENMA WAS PANTING AND SHAKING AND THE SCENE CHANGED!!??!??! OH MY FUCKING GOOOODDDD

And daishou at the end- that was a gift from heaven, thank you very much

The only thing i wouldve wanted more of the movie it would be the coaches backstories, the real shit

Like, nekomata and ukkei friendship was jsut so fucking wholesome they were besties and rivals and they pushed each other to their limits and motivated each other and they never got to play a real match against each ither in high school so they became coaches and their schools were rivals and they were PEAK and then ukkai got sick and nekomata retired just to both of them be back in play, and then ukkai getting sick again and keishin taking his place and THE FRICKING HANDSHAKE DID HAPOEN AND I SCREAMED AND CRIED AND SHOUTED AND AND AND I WILL NEVER SHUT UP ABOUT THEM

Aaaaaaaaaa this was supposed to be shorter but im way too excited about this freaks playing volleyball to not say the least. I think ive never done a post this long. Or a post in general, i just repost shit, thats the blog's name lol

Anyways, bokuaka canon and i can die happy now

Nothing like opening my eyes to a new linked universe update

Dawn pt8

My occasional source of dopamine XD

Its very satisfying seeing how all the traveling layers are put on. You can really imagine this scene animated

So a lot of important things were discussed, stuff the fandom have noticed before but its good that jojo finally mentioned them herself:

Shadow is the only this associated with the portals (pg1)

I LOVE how so many traits and experiences of the characters are shown here!!

Wild taking the blame first, he's got one heck a guilt complex (pg2)

We are just hit with everyone's emotions right off the bat and i love that!

I kinda like how blunt Time is

Wars talking about how "helping the wound isn't an option," things they must consider during war (pg3)

Legend trying to lighten the mood again like he always does (pg4)

I like to see how what they think of wolfie has changed now that they know it was twilight. Wars thinking its fine if the animal goes off alone cuz it doesnt understand but now making it clear that he doesn't like it

Secrets are getting in the way (such as wolfie) and hindering their process. Maybe it wouldn't have been so clunky if tgey knew exactly who wolfie is

WARS' SCARF IS BACK BABY! I got so excited when i saw it that page, dont worry guys, he has it back now!

Legend with his puzzle mind :))) my legend-centric brain is happy (pg5)

But his teasing almost boastfullness ("it just got lucky") but then turning in to actual contemplation, i love that he is also taking things seriously

Its actively seeking them out, Hyrule is wary that it will find them, like in his adventure (pg6)

They need to get better at teamwork

Four bringing in the joke about friendly fire. He definetly knows a lot about that (im reading the four swords manga for the first time and am near the begining sooo)

They need to use their arsenal

I just gotta say that i love this shot, very pleasing to my eye for some reason. But im so excited to see how everything goes with this! Im guessing in the near future, they will be taking these but to the extreme that it hinders them so they need to practice or something

Oof poor hyrule so tired of strong monsters, his games were HARD (pg7)

The power up on the sword! Ive seen a post about it before so its cool that they are noticing it, very important too!

I like the firmness with sky and time's ideas of the sword. Even though time says nothing about her we can see it, and the fact that she still sees him as her master (obviously!) It seems like they both need to sort out this dissagreement in order to not impact them even more (Pg8)

I love this especially because i just made a fic about exploring sky's and others' relationship with the master sword

I can't help but think that sky is thinking about more than just this quest in this update and back to his own adventure and maybe ghirahim. More bits in this update also make me think that ("he wants to fight" "yeah, 'cause he wont")

Wind being the one most eagre to fight! And Hyrule being the one most ready to go! I love that!

I was just thinking a few bays ago about what happened to those letters, i guess we get to see now! It seems like it might be one more update before we set off properly again (pg9)

Sky looking so happy about the mail at the end :)))

We really do get a piece of everyone and their personalities in this one

Im so excited for them to be on the road again!

#i do a little ramble #linked universe #lu #lu sky #lu four #lu time #lu legend #lu hyrule #lu twilight #lu wind #lu warriors #lu wild #lu fic #i do a little react

gonna be honest... this one has been spinning in my head for a while! so imma do an analysis of touya/dabi (I might switch between the two but its whatever) and just how much his arc makes sense for him and plays into his character. also his trauma and how it affected him. SO! with that being said this will kinda be ramblely and not very coherent but fuck it we ball.

also i have NOT read the manga so uh.... yeah-

(p.s this is REALLY LONG-)

so basically I'm gonna be going over about why it makes sense that touya is a villain and why he chose this path specifically over the one that most people would do, especially after his incident which would be go back to your family and talk it out or whatever. (which he didnt do because hes a totally EDGELORD- excuse me-).

One thing that's been essential about touya's character, from the very beginning (talking childhood) is that he always wanted his father's attention. From a young age touya was raised as practically an only child because lets be honest with him inheriting fire and with endeavors whole 'i want an ice quirk so i dont overheat stuff' he likely payed a lot more attention to touya rather than fuyumi.

touya took in this affection from a young age and seeing how apparently endeavor only got worse as the years went by the view that touya had of his father was likely in somewhat of a good light, glad to be receiving attention from someone in his life that he clearly looked up to at the time. although this did have side effects like his disrespect for his mother (which he also probably gained from being around his father so often).

remember that touya most likely gained a lot of attention from his father, that and his standards from a young age with no one to tell him 'hey this is wrong that hes doing this' as he didn't really care for his mother and her opinion because of guess who? his father. (this is where shoto and him differ as shoto clearly looked up to his mother, who was probably a lot more in his life than she was in touya's).

so the moment when its revealed that 'hey your quirk hurts you, dont use it' is the moment where everything shatters, not just for endeavor but for touya. imagine being told your whole life that you were gonna do something to make someone you looked up to so proud only to find out that you couldn't because of your bodies limits, something thats out of your control.

not only this, but touya likely would've been fine if endeavor had still shown some interest in him. but that wasn't the case. he moved on. touya already had these expectations built in his head that he's going to surpass All Might like his father wanted, so why isn't his father paying attention to him anymore? he probably figured out 'its because my quirk hurts me' so his response was 'its fine i'll push through the hurt and make him proud and show him that i can still do what he wants. so he'll have to pay attention to me again'

touya was so obviously raised on endeavors attention so when its ripped away all that remains in his is 'oh ive done something wrong, how can i fix it?' so once again he keeps training his quirk and hurting himself. not to mention that once again its clear how he looked up to his father

not to mention that he knew what endeavor wanted. he wanted an ice and fire quirk, so when endeavor kept having more and more children it was probably only worsening his dread and anxiety. 'what if this one had the quirk?' 'would dad still love me?' 'would he still look at me?'

he sees this as his father trying to get rid of him, as his father not having enough time for him in a way, which given how much attention he was raised on by his father, is absolutely devastating. SO- lets get to the main course shall we?

TOUYA'S BREAK DOWN!! PART ONE-

at this moment i cant remember the exactly what happened but its where basically endeavors like 'STOP WITH YOUR QUIRK DAMMIT' and touya cant understand that. because if he stops then endeavor will stop looking at him. to touya he has to disobey endeavor, thats the only way all of his attention doesnt go to shoto who clearly has the right quirk his father wants with his split hair because quirks or whatever-

(also fuyumi's face is hilarious in the second picture but moving on-)

in this scene he out right says 'look at me endeavor'. the kid who has been so basically pumped full of attention and praise has had enough of his father trying to constantly trying to seemingly get rid of him and throw him to the side. he wants his father's attention more than anything now, whether its endeavor yelling at him or praising him he just wants to be noticed by someone he's looked up to all of his life.

so he attacks shoto, no quite honestly i don't think that he was trying to kill shoto in this scene, as much as he was trying to scare endeavor/harm him. but thats just a personal opinion. so back to everything else i guess-

NOW- BREAK DOWN PART TWO!!!

in this he very excitedly tells endeavor to come to sekoto peak. endeavor wonders why and checks under the boys shirt only to find burns. and tried to tell him off but touya doesn't listen. he instead says that its really cool and that he might be able to get to shoto's level not only that but its also evident that what his father told him from a young age is still present in his mind as below he claims that he doesn't think that he'd lose to All Might, meaning even after when Endeavor's long thrown touya's training away forgetting about the boy ever being able to surpass All Might touya did not. most likely thinking about how this is his chance to impress his father.

now with these next few lines it reveals a few things, touya doesnt think that endeavors happy with him. he thinks that hes not glad that his own son exists and reasonable it makes him sad as he starts tearing up. but keep in mind, he looks up to endeavor at this point and if the person he looks up to isn't happy with his existence at this point than what the hell is he doing. now this is totally different from before as he just wanted attention, good or bad as he yknow... tried to hurt/kill his younger brother- this is him actively wanting attention. and likely... this is the most healthy he's been mentally for a while.

he went from. this person who i look up to expects something from me, to uh oh i upset them what am i doing wrong? to why arent they paying attention anymore? if theyre not then im gonna harm someone to make them look at me for once. But now his mindset is more 'okay well maybe im not trying hard enough, if i try harder than he'll like me more'

once again... probably his healthiest mindset, that and we see the excitement on his face about this new move or power or whatever. he's genuinely excited over this and the fact that his father just blows it off is gonna take a toll on him. as what did he do wrong again? well we know he did nothing but he doesn't know that. after all the person he looked up to must have a reason right?

he starts crying and with that everything burns. he can't control it and he ends up hurting himself in the process. covering his body in burns as he turns into basically what we see today.

but why didn't he go back? it would make sense right? well probably because of a few reasons.

how could he go back? what would they say? endeavor would be mad at him and plus he wanted to prove himself to his father on that peak. yet it seemed he only did the opposite

why didn't endeavor come? thats all he wanted, all he ever wanted so why didnt he? he no longer holds endeavor up to his high standard anymore, he's angry at him. and rightfully so

would they want him back? maybe natsuo would be there for him but what about the others? would they care for him?

of course the last one might be pushing it but you get the point. the second one probably affected him the most though and is why he became dabi, training his quirk so that he may surpass his father as a petty victory, trying to say 'i was right all along i can surpass you and all might and shoto'. its his last attempt at making his father look his way and he wants to do it right.

he wanted it to be something that his father couldnt just shove off hence the video and him taping it. one last time he wanted his father to look at him and be reminded of everything that had happened with him. and it worked, the todoroki's do go over what happened with touya and saw went went wrong, that being that they neglected him after building him up so high only to say that he was useless after all (its all endeavors doing but... whatever-).

so yeah those are basically my thoughts on it- might be slightly inaccurate but yknow what... this is getting long and i dont wanna type anymore :D

Hi really interested in this reconstruct Au!! Do you have more information about the story?

Oh Anon.. I hope you are ready for the can of worms you have just opened 😬

I should warn you tho, I am not the best at telling a story, and im worse at explaining one. However I also want to share this AU as its been something ive been working on for 8+ years, and while it is mostly a self indulgent Monster AU, full of stereotypical troupes and cliches, its also very important to me. I made this AU when I was not in a good place mentally and was using it as a way to cope with and express the feelings I was having at the time. Its changed a lot and truth be told its actually 2 story lines that combine to become 1 down the line. But for the sake of this ask, I will focus on talking about the Reconstruct backstory.

Anyway if youre still interested in what the story is about, then please continue reading! I will do my best to try not to babble too much but.. its going to happen anyway 😅

TW: So I should probably start off with mentioning that this AU does contain emotional and physical abuse, manipulation, and mention of body mutilation. Not that im going to go into the details of that here but thats just me covering my own ass :v At the point the story is at now, Gladion is much older than he is in the games/manga/anime. His actual age isnt fully known as the theme with this AU deals with time and interdimensional travel, so its hard to keep track of, but he appears to be in his early 20s. But for all intents and purposes he is an adult.

✨The story ✨ So the Reconstruct AU is something of a "bad ending" storyline.

So this story follows that of the canon for the beginning. Mohn disappeared when he fell through an Ultra Space worm hole that was opened, and his whereabouts are unknown. Lusamine still went into her crazy and Ultra Beast obsessed self, only concerned with youth, beauty, and keeping things as under her control as much as she can. Gladion steals TYPE:NULL and Lillie taking Nebby and running away. Lillie going to live with Kukui and Gladion joining Team Skull as their enforcer.

In this timeline, Lusamine, in her desperate need to have control of everything around her, decides that she will create her "perfect world" where she will surround herself with all of the things that she loves. A place where everything will be kept exactly the way she wants them, preserved for all of time, and where she wont ever be alone again. However she knows that she can not do this on her own, but knows who can. Someone younger, stronger, and already has knowledge about the UBs and Aether. Now the hard part is getting him to join her, but she has a plan for that.

Lusamine gets in contact with Guzma (as in this story he still "works" for her) and with the help of some choice words, a good sob story, and probably a fat check, she's able to convince him that she has changed and she wants help from him to convince Gladion of these things as well. Being that he and Gladion are so close, and obviously he trusts him so much, it shouldnt be hard for him to talk some sense into him, right? She does an amazing job at getting Guzma on her side, having him think that Gladion is just being a bratty, rebellious, edgy teen. After all, he comes from some nice rich family, could have anything he wants, and yet still chose to ran away, how bad could it have possibly been? Does he even realize how bad some of these kids have it? How badly HE had it?? So generally he thinks that Gladion is just over reacting/being dramatic. He doesnt know how good he's had it, obviously!

Guzma sets up this whole "ambush". He has Gladion come back to the shady house, getting him inside and cornering him in his room, where he is confronted by Lusamine. She puts on this big show of being the sorry mother just wanting her son back, going on about how she's changed and she didnt mean to do all of those horrible things and so on and so on. All she wants is them to be a family again, like they used to be, is that really so much to ask for? Gladion is already seeing right through this, he knows all of this is bs, but he cant seem to get anyone on his side. After all, the members of Team Skull never really liked him anyway and were only going along with it bc Guzma said so. Now with Guzma against him, he has no real back up. He cant fight back and he cant even escape. Despite his stubborn nature, he still cant overcome the hold his mother has on him after all those years. She very much has him between a rock and a hard place. So not having any other option, he is forced to go back home with her.

Once back home, Gladion's life is turned upside down as Lusamine does everything she can to keep him on a short leash. All freedom that he had is now gone, and he is constantly watched and monitored, its suffocating. Much like before, he's told how to dress, how to act, what to eat and how much, he cant even so much as get near a computer or phone without someone questioning him. He cant even bring out any of his pokemon bc Lusamine has deemed most of them "too dangerous" to have out all under the pretense of doing it for his safety. The only pokemon he's able to have around him is his Umbreon, and even then, she's given a electric collar that keeps her within the property of the house, so no chance of her running off in the middle of the night or anything. While Lusamine insists that shes not keeping him there against his will, she assures him that he's allowed to leave whenever he'd like. Tho she also warns him that if he leaves, then Lillie will be taking his place. She will not be left with an empty nest. Truth be told Lillie probably would have been the easier choice between the two, she also knows that Gladion would do anything to keep her safe. So using her as leverage is how she keeps control over Gladion.

One day Lusamine casually brings up about the "Reconstruct Project" to Gladion (keeping its details very vague), mentioning its something he could help her with, as she thinks he would be interested, He shuts it down saying that he wants no part of whatever she's doing. Lusamine doesnt prese the issue, only expressing disappointment that he wont even consider her offer, but she wont force him. Rather she doesnt want to force him as she wants him to join her willingly. (Even if "willingly" means she'll force his hand) She needs him for this Project. Gladion may be stubborn, but she is so much worse.

After their initial conversation, things only got a lot worse. While he had few freedoms since all of this has started, those are gone now. He becomes cut off from his Pokemon, from the outside, he hardly has a moment of peace where he doesnt feel like he's being questioned or ordered to do something. He really is like a prisoner in his own home (well, a place he once called that). His sanity is being chipped away at, and it comes down to 2 options. -He can either join onto this Reconstruct project, whatever it is. Not knowing what fate could await him or what Lusamine as planned, but at least he'd have a chance at having some sense of a life back and limited freedom.. -Or he can live the rest of his life as Lusamine's puppet, having no freedom or will of his own (<-which is also another story of its own). His life will practically be on auto pilot, forever chained to Aether but never having a say in anything.

It takes some time but eventually Gladion does break, and asks to join the Reconstruct Project, even tho he still has no idea what it is, but anything is better than the life he is living now.

Lusamine is absolutely delighted by this news! And almost instantly, life then turns around for Gladion. He finally is given back some freedom, if not more than what he had before. He is able to move around his home without question. He gets to eat more and better than he did before, putting on some much needed muscle. He's even getting a chance to walk around outside and around the property without having some kind of chaperone. Lusamine even invites him to join her at Aether to over see some projects that they are working on as well as helping with pokemon there. She lets him join her in outings in town, taking him to eat and so on. She's essentially love bombing him, and he hesitantly accepts. All the while this is going on, he still does not know what this Reconstruct Project is bc he cant seem to find any information on it, like it almost doesnt even exist. Whenever he asks about it, Lusamine either skirts around the question or tells him that then only thing he should be concerned about is being in his best physical condition as possible. She assures him that it'll all be worth it, and shes going to give him what he's always wanted: To be stronger. But in order to that, he's going to need some "upgrades. None of this does well to ease any concerns or fears he has, but he's already gotten this far, and he doesnt want to risk going to how things were before so.. whatever it is, he's in it for better or worse. Gladion undergoes a very extensive surgery, with about 80% of his body being "Reconstructed" (hence the name) from the ground up. Its some time later that he wakes up from a induced coma and when he does the reality of what has happened to him is made clear. He is no longer human, or rather, not completely. His body a patch worked mess, a terrible jigsaw amalgamation of human and (shiny) Silvally. Lusamine delivered on her promise to make him stronger, even if she left out the finer details of it.. So that is the Reconstruct story line, or the start of it anyway. From here the story follows along with Gladion changing his name to "Reconstruct" as he has convinced himself that who he once was is no longer him. That part of him died long before it got to this point. His job is that of a glorified errand boy and protector of Aether. He mostly travels through Ultra Space and to different worlds/time to gather up UBs for Lusamine so that she can create her "perfect world". He travels through the worm holes with the aid of an altered Dusk Mane Solgaleo who has been fitted with pieces of Necrozma Armor, that acts a lot like NULL's inhibitor helmet. While its an odd life and something he would have never imagined for himself. He is still very much tied to Aether, at least in this way he has some sense of purpose and freedom. Tho in his time of traveling he has seen much, including other versions of himself (Gladion) living out lives that he knows he could never have, being with people that he cared about, knowing that he cant ever go back to how things were. He's very lonely, bitter, and jaded at the world and others. He's closed off, quick to anger, and untrusting of others. His only real reason to keep going despite everything thats happened is bc of Lillie, as knowing that at least this way he can still protect her. He is content enough to live the rest of his life like this. Even if he has to do it alone. Trying not to think about what might happened when he finishes his mission.. but, well, life certainly has a way of surprising you. And that is the story! I admit that I am going to be very surprised to know if anyone actually read all of this, but if you did please know you have my many thanks and my apologies 😅

I rly lov your long posts about Deidara specifically, but Im curious as to why (and maybe Ive just not read everything you've written) you mention Deidara as joining the Akatsuki at ages like 12-13? Because I feel like it's been pretty well stated that Deidara was recruited at 15. Which still, he's quite the prodigy, but iirc he was Sasori's partner of 4 years and canonically died at 19 which would mean he was 15 at the time of his recruitment, no?

Hi, anon, I did talk about it previously in reblogs to one of my posts (the one about Deidara and Obito prefering to hang upside down), but I'll explain it again.

Someone already commented that "it's been stated he was Sasori's partner for 4 years", however, when I asked for an actual reference to something in canon indicating that, I got no reply. My assumption is that this is some sort of popular headcanon in the fandom that's so deeply embedded into people's minds that at some point people just start saying that "oh, Deidara was partnered with Sasori for 4 years" even if nothing in canon is stated in regards to this. Again, if you manage to find a confirmation of this claim in canon, send it my way, I'm just stating that I did not see anything proving this to be true besides tumblr users saying so.

(and I do not consider anime to be canon, mostly because of the fact that they changed stuff from the manga to fit the endless fillers + taking stuff from anime means wrecking an already shaky timeline of Naruto world that exists purely off the fans' prayers and wishes + I never made myself watch the anime fully because I like to have other interests besides Naruto, so I am less familiar with it and looking for a single line confirming some fact in 600 something episodes of endless yapping and terrible pacing sounds like hell, so to me the only things that can serve as a proof are from the manga itself or the databooks, both of which were done by Kishimoto)

but back to Deidara's age at the time of recruitment - him being 12 is actually also a presumption of mine, but it's simply because of various factors. off the information available to me, we can not directly state that Deidara was exactly X years old when Akatsuki came for him, but we can get the range for his age.

Strictly speaking, the upper boundary for Deidara joining would be 16 years, and it's due to the last scene of OG Naruto where we see Akatsuki having a secret meeting with all of the members present. Deidara is undeniably there (the hairstyle and speech pattern of the member hanging from the ceiling matches his), so by that point he's already a full-fledged member of your local terrorist daycare. However, what is interesting about this scene is what Deidara says

(Viz's translation is being weird again, but as far as I remember, this is another case where in the original the subject of the sentence is omitted, so it actually should be something like "we'll finish off Orochimaru soon" and "will we be able to finish our tasks on time?")

in any case, what's curious about this scene is that Deidara seems to be fully aligned with Akatsuki's goals. This is not a boy who didn't want to join the organization because he wanted to do his art on his own and was forced to join after losing to one its members, this is a guy who is fully interested in whatever the hell Akatsuki had going on. So even if technically the upper limit for Deidara joing is 16, I would say that a reasonable boundary would be 15 - Deidara is far too comfortable in the organization during his first appearance to be a recent hire, so I'd say that he's been with the gang for at least a year.

Now onto the lower boundary for Deidara's age at the time of recruitment, and for this we'll need to use that scene itself

Again, because nothing is known regarding Deidara's time in Iwa (in the databooks some shinobi get their age when they became genin/chunin, however Deidara doesn't fall into this category either), so the estimates would have to come from the other three in the room, namely Sasori, Kisame and Itachi.

Sasori isn't really useful for this due to the fact that his nukenin career started an entire year before Deidara was even born (LMAO), Chiyo claims that Sasori returned 10 years later to kill the Third Kazekage (but I call bullshit on that, because this creates a plethora of timeline issues, so probably another Kishimoto moment), but none of that helps us with figuring out when Sasori got recruited, how long he spent in organization, etc etc.

Kisame's got even less information (except, you know, the times when he was doing the murder exam, and again, that was way before Deidara was even born), so not much use of him either.

However, Itachi has a lot more to go off. Obviously, if he is present in this scene as an Akatsuki member, this means that this takes place after the Uchiha massacre. And what we certainly know about it is that Itachi was 13 at the time. Itachi and Deidara have a 2 year age gap, meaning that the harshest lower boundary that can be imposed on Deidara in the recruitment scene is 11 (we can not go any lower, otherwise it's impossible for Itachi to be present).

That is if we assume that Itachi joined Akatsuki and immediately went to hunt for Deidara.

Which we know is not true, because the entire conflict with Orochimaru (who is Sasori's partner at the time) takes place. After the Uchiha massacre Itachi run away from Konoha, joined Akatsuki, got partnered with Kisame (off that flashback before Kisame's death it's not really clear who joined Akatsuki first, Itachi or Kisame, but nonetheless that scene had to have taken place before Deidara recruitment), had his conflict with Orochimaru, Orochimaru ditched Akatsuki, leaving Sasori without a partner, thus creating the need for replacement. And remember, Orochimaru did not return the ring after voluntarily resigning (without the organization's HR department's permission, of course), and again, these rings allow members to seal Tailed Beasts within Gedo Mazo, literally the most important thing about Akatsuki, so, in my opinion, some time would have to be spent by Akatsuki trying to (unsuccessfully) chase after Orochimaru and beat the shit out of him for stealing the company's property. All in all, some time would have to pass between Itachi joining and Deidara joining.

However, what speaks against this period of time being long is the way Akatsuki operate, which is pairing two people together. Sasori was left without a partner, and while I don't doubt that he is more than strong enough to do mass murder on his own, the suicide statistics in nukenins born in the Second Shinobi World War or soon after it speak for itself, so a replacement would need to be found fast, which is why I don't think the period between Itachi joining Akatsuki and Deidara meeting the gang would be longer than a year - can't leave Sasori hanging by himself, and nothing suggests that Sasori had other partners in between Orochimaru and Deidara, which is why I say the lowest age at which Deidara could have joined is 12.

So, to summarize, in the recruitment scene Deidara's age would be in [12; 15] range, if we are doing it with reasonable assumptions based off the canon interactions, but based off characters' presence alone it would be from 11 to 16.

However, there's more in regards to Deidara becoming a nukenin!

This moment here confirms that Deidara is already a terrorist by the time Akatsuki find him. He is not being stolen from Iwa, he has already run away and, moreover, he's been assisting insurgents for some time. And, what's important, he's doing it on his own, meaning that he had to work up a reputation for himself as a nukenin (otherwise insurgents wouldn't have worked with this random kid). Which implies that some time must have passed in between him leaving and meeting Akatsuki. Again, nothing concrete, but I wouldn't say that this period could have been less than a year, which means he would have been like 11-12 by the time he ditched Iwa.

Which is. Jesus. Even during the World Wars kids only become chunins by that point. I'm not even talking about the Naruto's "peaceful" generation.

And I remembred one final thing that also makes me believe that Deidara was younger than 15 during his recruitment, but it's a lot more shaky and biased. I'm talking about the way Kishimoto draws him in this scene

The main cast of Shippuden is exactly in this supposedly confirmed range (15-16 years old) for Deidara, however when I take Naruto/Sasuke/Sakura/etc etc, I just don't see Deidara being the same age as them in here. He looks younger, closer to them in OG Naruto than in Shippuden. Nonetheless, this is my personal opinion and perception, and Kishimoto is pretty inconsistent at drawing characters in their supposed age (probably because he himself has no idea how old his characters are in this or that scene, lmao), so that's the weakest argument I have for my position.

The 36th Floor - That One Looks Like You

satoru gojo x suguru geto

warnings: smut AGAIN ;)

wc: 13.4k

previous chapter here

note: My longest chapter yet!! I'm really proud of it, so I hope you guys enjoy. Also i kinda feel like this is the filtiest thing ive written, so keep that in mind! ;) I *kind of* wrote this one so that you could read this just on it's own, so even if you haven't been reading along with the rest of the story, this is just a nice chapter to read.

Okay, I'll stop yapping, have fun reading!

The rest of the summer after the beginning of July seems to zoom by in a flash. Satoru’s long days were filled with working in the office and then coming home to feed Shiro and snuggle up on the couch next to Suguru while planning their vacation. Once Satoru had suggested Okinawa, there wasn’t any more discussion about where they would be going.

“Let me plan everything.” Satoru begged. “Pleaseee?”

“Are you sure?” Suguru asked, not completely sure if he wanted to put the entire responsibility of the trip into Satoru’s hands. It’s not that he didn’t trust him to do it, but he just liked knowing what was going on.

“Yes, I promise I’ll do everything.” Satoru begged, wanting to go crazy with it. He wanted their first vacation together to really be something to remember.

That’s how they ended up in a villa with their own private pool for five nights in Okinawa. Their flight arrived on time, with thankfully no issues at the airport this time after Suguru made sure they were there with plenty of time to spare. Satoru arranged for them to take the ferry the hour and a half trip north from Naha to Motobu. Once they finally make it to their resort, Suguru starts becoming more and more suspicious as he notices the way everything looks like it’s straight out of a luxury real estate magazine. He waits back while Satoru gets them checked in and gets the keys to their villa.

“Why do I have a feeling that I shouldn’t trust you?” Suguru asks with narrowed eyes as they load their bags onto a small golf cart so that the resort employee can take them to where they’re staying for the week.

“Why wouldn’t you trust me?” Satoru asks as the driver takes off down the path towards their villa. The warm late summer breeze blows through his short snowy hair as he looks over at Sugru with a mischievous seeming smile on his face. His sunglasses sit on his face, shielding his eyes from the bright Okinawan sun beating down on them.

“You’re asking me that while you have that smile on your face.” Suguru says with a suspecting smile, feeling the half of his hair that’s down blowing in the wind behind him. He rests his arm along the back of the seat, allowing him to mindlessly brush Satoru’s shoulder with his thumb. Their bags sit on the back of the cart as they make the short drive and finally pull up to a simple looking black steel gate. They grab all of their things from the cart and thank the driver before he heads back the direction they came, leaving them alone. Satoru opens the gate and Suguru follows closely behind. From the road, you can’t see much as it’s mostly covered by trees and other landscaping, but after they pass through the gate, the path to the front door is full of lush manicured plants and a pond with a small waterfall.

Suguru is speechless just looking at the outside as they approach the front door. Satoru turns around and hands the key card to Suguru. “You open it.”

“Why me?” Suguru asks, slightly confused.

“I planned everything, I already know what it looks like! I want you to be surprised.” Satoru says with a child-like smile, urging him towards the door to open it. Suguru takes the key card and looks at Satoru with a suspicious look on his face, not knowing what to expect on the other side of the door. He taps the key to the door and turns the knob before pushing open the door and stepping inside.

Suguru is speechless as he opens the door to see the beautiful inside of their villa. His mouth hangs open as he steps just inside and takes a look around. “Baby?” He asks, making his way in further. Satoru steps inside and closes the door behind them, setting their bags off to the side of the door to take to the bedroom after they look around.

“Yes, my sweet?” Satoru asks, walking in to meet Suguru as he stands in the middle of the gorgeous living room that overlooks their own private pool. The water comes up to the edges, looking like glass as it reflects the bright blue sky above.

“How much was all this?” He asks, turning back to look at Satoru with wide eyes.

“That doesn’t matter, do you like it?” Satoru asks, shaking his head and brushing off his question completely.

“Satoru, it’s beautiful, but this must have cost you a fortune!” Suguru shouts as he continues looking around.

“It wasn’t too bad.” Satoru says with a shrug as he stands with his hands in his pockets. “You want a tour?” He asks, having looked at this place for months and knowing it well.

“Trust fund baby.” Suguru mumbles as he shakes his head, wrapping his arms around Satoru’s waist and pulling him in for a tight hug.

“Did Shoko tell you to say that?!” Satoru asks, furrowing his eyebrows and narrowing his eyes at Suguru for just a moment before wrapping his arms around his shoulders and holding him tightly.

“Nope. So, how about that tour?” Suguru says with a smug grin before he presses a quick kiss to Satoru’s cheek.

“You’re lucky I love you more than anything on Earth.” Satoru says, shaking his head as they break from their hug. Suguru smiles back at him, ready to be taken on a tour. “Well we’ve already seen the kitchen and the living room, but if we head back through here on the other side of the front door, there’s the bedroom.” They step into the bedroom to see a perfectly made bed facing a wall of glass doors that fold back into the walls. The bedroom overlooks the pool just like the living room, but has its own separate seating area out on the patio.

They continue through the bedroom to the bathroom that has a gigantic tub, along with a shower that’s connected to a small cove where an outdoor shower sits. “I think we’re gonna like this.” Satoru says, raising his eyebrows with a wink as he points out the outdoor shower. Suguru shakes his head as he rolls his eyes, but smiles, knowing that he’s probably right. “Okay, now one of my favorite parts!” Satoru says, grabbing Suguru’s hand and pulling him back out towards the living room.

“Babe, you don’t have to pull me, I’m right here.” Suguru says with a chuckle, having no choice but to keep following behind him.

“Yeah but you’re not going fast enough!” Satoru exclaims as they make it to a spiral staircase that sits to the side of the dining room. They make their way up the stairs and come out to a rooftop deck, complete with an outdoor kitchen. Suguru’s mouth hangs open as they step into the outdoor living area. The view of the bright blue ocean just past all the vegatation is enough to make Suguru speechless once again. “Do you like it?” Satoru asks, noticing Suguru has fallen somewhat silent.

“Baby, you really didn’t have to go all out like this.” Suguru says, feeling bad about how much he probably spent on this place and vacation as a whole.

“Yes I did! I wanted us to enjoy our first vacation together.” Satoru explains as they look at the ocean view together. Suguru turns to look at Satoru for a moment before grabbing the sides of his face gently and pulling him in for a deep kiss. Satoru grabs the sides of Suguru’s shirt, holding him close as their lips press together. Suguru smiles at the feeling.

“I would’ve enjoyed anything with you. Thank you, Toru.” Suguru whispers up against Satoru’s lips as their foreheads rest together. The warm salty ocean breeze flows between them as they stand there for a moment.

“You’re welcome, Sugu.” Satoru whispers back before leaving one more kiss on Suguru’s lips. “Should we unpack?” He suggests. Suguru nods his head and they make their way back down the stairs and toward the front door to grab their bags before heading into the bedroom.

“You brought a swimsuit, right?” Satoru asks as he pulls out his own and puts it into one of the drawers in the closet.

“Of course I did.” Suguru says as he unpacks his own bag. “But…” He continues, thinking for a moment before finishing his thought. “This is just our pool, right?” He asks, looking back to Satoru.

The grin on Satoru’s face is wide as he turns around. “Oh I’m way ahead of ya, babe.” Satoru says, knowing exactly what he’s getting at. “We don’t have to wear anything in the pool, but we probably want to if we’re gonna go in the ocean.” Suguru smiles to himself, thankful that he doesn’t ever really have to explain himself to Satoru. He somehow always knows exactly what he’s thinking. “There’s a path right there that leads out to the beach, but technically it’s a public beach, so anyone can be there.” He explains, pointing out past the pool to a sandy pathway that leads away into the greenery. “But the closest villa isn’t that close, so we should have it to ourselves most of the time.”

“Good to know.” Suguru says with a smile on his face as he moves to stand behind Satoru. He snakes his arms in front of him and rests his head on the back of Satoru’s shoulder, inhaling deeply before letting it out slowly.

“You sleepy?” Satoru asks, continuing to put his clothes into the drawers of the closet. They had a pretty early flight so that they could get to the resort as early as possible, but that meant that they had to wake up at 4am. Satoru had no problem with it, but Suguru didn’t manage to get any coffee for himself, so he was left feeling sluggish and half dead after their morning and early afternoon of traveling.

“Mmhm.” Suguru hums in response, nodding his head sluggishly against Satoru’s back.

“How about you go lay down and I’ll finish unpacking, okay?” Satoru suggests, his voice sweet and soothing as Suguru feels his eyelids getting heavier with every passing moment. “I’ll be there in just a minute.” He says, feeling Suguru lift his head from off of his back and his arms release from around his waist. Suguru presses a delicate kiss to the back of Satoru’s neck before heading out of the closet to go lay down in bed.

Satoru smiles to himself at the feeling, wanting to quickly finish unpacking so that he could go join Suguru in bed. He knows that Suguru didn’t have any kind of caffeine this morning, simply because they were just so busy making sure they had everything that it completely slipped his mind. Satoru hums softly to himself as he neatly puts everything away and moves onto their bathroom bags. He puts everything on the counter and the adjacent shelves neatly before sticking their empty bags back in the closet.

When he steps out of the bathroom and back into the bedroom, Suguru is laying on top of the white duvet, not even bothering to pull it back and climb under. Satoru smiles as he looks at how Suguru looks with his eyes closed, peacefully resting on his side with his arm wrapped around one of the fluffy pillows. Satoru takes his sunglasses off of his head and sets them on the nightstand before laying down next to him. Suguru already seems to be asleep, but Satoru moves in close, taking Suguru’s arm and wrapping it over his waist to replace the pillow. Suguru’s mouth twitches into a smile as he pulls Satoru closer and takes a deep breath, holding him close.

“You asleep already?” Satoru whispers, not wanting to wake him if he is.

“Mm-mm.” Suguru responds, his face now resting on Satoru’s chest. Satoru wraps his arms around Suguru’s shoulder, holding him close as he sits a bit higher in the pillows, his head nearly leaning up against the headboard.

“You get some rest, I’ll be right here.” Satoru coos, pulling his phone out of his pocket to scroll aimlessly while Suguru takes a nap.

“Wake me up in 45 minutes.” He mumbles against Satoru’s chest.

“Will do, sleeping beauty.” Satoru says with a smile on his face. He puts his phone down and looks down at Suguru’s face as it’s squished up against his chest. He looks at the way his eyelashes sit delicately against his cheeks, the way his hair falls down in front of his face, the way his lips have a slight pout on them as he drifts off to sleep. Satoru lets one hand rub soothing circles on his back, knowing it’ll help him fall asleep faster. His other hand carefully brushes Suguru’s hair back, running his fingers through his hair slowly. Before he knows it, Suguru’s breathing slows and becomes more even, letting him know that he’s asleep.

Being the little shit that he is, Satoru finds this as the perfect opportunity to take some pictures. He picks his phone back up from where it sits beside him on the bed and opens the camera. He tries to find the most ridiculous angle that he can photograph Suguru at, but no matter what he does, Suguru looks absolutely perfect. “Ugh.” Satoru grumbles quietly, irritated that he can’t even get one where he looks somewhat bad. “Why do you have to be so blessed?” Satoru whispers mostly to himself as he continues scrolling on his phone.

He doesn’t realize it, but his eyes are starting to feel just as heavy the longer he lays there under the weight of Suguru resting on him. Before he can do anything about it, he’s out like a light.

It’s no less than three hours later when Suguru finally wakes up. He notices that Satoru is also asleep and immediately checks the time on his watch.

“Baby.” Suguru says softly, trying to shake Satoru awake while still groggy from his nap that lasted much longer than intended. “Satoru.” He says, rubbing the sleep from his eyes.

“What?!” Satoru asks, shooting up and quickly taking a deep breath. “I’m awake!” He shouts, sounding like he’s trying to convince himself.

“Toru, I told you 45 minutes.” Suguru says, laying back into the pillows on his side of the bed.

“Yeah.” Satoru says, still not completely awake yet.

“That was three hours ago.”

“Oh…” He says, realizing that he fell asleep without setting an alarm. “I’m sorry, Gugu, I guess I was pretty tired too.” Satoru says with a sheepish smile on his face.

“Do we have anything planned for the rest of the day that we need to get ready for?” Suguru asks, wanting to make sure they aren’t missing somewhere they should be.

“Actually, I planned on having dinner here tonight so that we didn’t have to do anything today. Does that sound alright?” He asks, sitting up and rubbing his eyes to wake himself up. “I had groceries delivered before we even got here, so we have everything we need already. Suguru smiles up at him from his side of the bed.

“Have I told you how much I love you?” Suguru asks, the smile easily heard laced into his sickly sweet tone.

“Yes… But I’d love to hear you tell me again.” Satoru says, leaning back across the bed to give Suguru a gentle kiss.

“I love you so much, you have no idea.”

“I think I have a pretty good idea.” Satoru says with a smirk as he stands up. He grabs onto the bottom hem of his tshirt and pulls it up and over his head, tossing it randomly to the corner as he heads into the bathroom.

“Satoru, why don’t you put it in the closet?” Suguru asks with a huff as he stands up from his side of the bed. He goes to pick up the discarded shirt and tosses it into the closet before continuing on into the bathroom.

“You wanna take a swim?” Satoru asks, turning back around to Suguru as he unties his shorts that already sit low on his hips. Suguru flashes a smile at Satoru, looking him up and down quickly before agreeing. He goes to open up the doors that connect their bedroom to the patio and pool, letting in the warm late afternoon air. Suguru takes his own shirt off and adds it to the pile that was already started in the closet. He starts to untie his own shorts when he hears the sound of running footsteps followed by a loud splash. He smiles to himself, hurrying out to look at Satoru in the pool as he comes back up.

“Did you fall?” Suguru calls out, not exactly sure what had happened.

The water moves with a circular ripple effect away from Satoru, slightly spilling over the edges of the pool into the gutters. “No, I jumped in! Come on! It’s so nice!” He calls out as he brushes his dripping wet hair out of his face and rests up against the wall with his arms up on the deck. His chin rests on his hands as he watches Suguru standing in the bedroom. Suguru finally pulls off his shorts and is left standing there in nothing besides the hair tie on his wrist. He quickly ties his hair up into a bun as he walks over to the stairs of the pool, Satoru’s eyes locked on him the entire way.

“Stop looking at me like you wanna eat me.” Suguru says as he steps into the pool, the cool water feeling soothing against his skin under the hot evening sun.

“What if I do wanna eat you, though?” Satoru asks, swimming over towards Suguru with a suggestive smirk on his face. He stands up and wraps his arms around Suguru’s shoulders. Their warm skin presses up against each other, nothing but water standing in between them.

“Well…” Suguru starts, feeling Satoru’s legs wrap around his waist. He puts his hands underneath his legs, holding Satoru up as he walks deeper into the pool, feeling the cool tiles under his feet. “I think you’ll have to wait until after dinner.”

Satoru lets his head fall back and rest in the water as he furrows his eyebrows and lets out a groan, hanging onto Suguru with his fingers laced behind the back of his neck. “Ughh.”

“And now you’re pouting?” Suguru asks, looking down at him, unimpressed.

“Sugu, I know you’re just being cruel by making me wait.”

“I’m being cruel, am I?” Suguru asks, raising an eyebrow at Satoru as he lays back with his hair in the water.

“Yesss.” Satoru draws out before sitting back up to wrap his arms tightly around Suguru’s shoulders once again. He looks at Suguru with his bottom lip stuck out and upturned eyebrows as he tries to get his way.

“I think you can wait.” Suguru says, nodding his head and letting go of Satoru’s legs. Satoru drops his legs, but keeps his hold around Suguru’s shoulders as they drift back and forth in the pool. He furrows his eyebrows once more before pressing a deep kiss to Suguru’s lips. “You’re not gonna change my mind, baby.” Suguru says as Satoru continues trying to attack his lips. Satoru finally gives up and lets go, swimming over to the opposite wall of the pool. “Are you gonna pout over there now?”

“Yeah.” Satoru says, facing the direction of the beach with his arms crossed in front of his chest.

“Baby.” Suguru coos, swimming over to stand at the wall next to him. “You can’t just pout when you don’t get what you want.” He smiles, thinking to himself that it sounds like he’s talking to a toddler.

“Sugu, you can’t expect me to be skinny dipping with you in our private pool on vacation and not want to have sex with you.” Satoru explains dramatically, still looking forward and refusing to turn and look at Suguru who chuckles lightly.

“Satoru,” Suguru starts, his saccharine voice saying Satoru’s name never fails to make him completely melt at the sound of it. He can’t help but finally turn to look at Suguru as he talks. “If you behave, and stop acting like a brat when you don’t get your way…” He continues, looking at Satoru with raised eyebrows. “I’ll be honest, I’ve already thought about fucking you on every surface in this house.” He says with a straight face. Satoru’s cheeks immediately flush a shade of pink, surprised at Suguru’s blunt response. “So, are you going to stop being so greedy and behave for a while?” He asks, looking at Satoru, waiting for an answer.

Satoru nods his head, but Suguru raises his eyebrows at him once again. “Yes sir.” Satoru says, knowing that Suguru wants to hear it out loud.

“There’s my good boy.” Suguru says with a sweet smile. “Now, what are we making for dinner?” He changes the subject and leaves Satoru with a quick peck on the cheek.

After swimming for a while longer, they both get out and rinse off before getting dressed once again to make dinner. They make chicken stir fry together before sitting down at the table to eat, the view of the pool and the trees just outside the doors.

“So what’s the plan for tomorrow?” Suguru asks as they eat their meal.

“Well, nothing’s set in stone, but I thought that maybe we could go to the aquarium tomorrow.” Satoru suggests. “I haven’t been here since I was a kid, but I remember it being amazing.” He explains, knowing that Suguru has never been before. “I already have tickets, but we can go any day this week.”

“Let’s do that tomorrow morning.” Suguru suggests. “Or whenever we get out of bed, really. It doesn’t matter what time, to me.”

“It closes at 6:30, so that gives us plenty of time even if we wake up a little late.”

“Anything else planned that I should know about?” Suguru asks, wanting to know a little bit more about what they would be doing during their week-long stay.

“Well… I have dinner reservations for us on Thursday at the restaurant here. It’s pretty fancy and it was not easy to get reservations, so I hope you’re excited.”

“I can’t wait.” Suguru says with a soft smile on his face, excited for whatever they have planned for the week.

“Most of the time is just open and we can do whatever we want, but I wanted this to be a relaxing vacation, so I didn’t plan too much. I hope that’s okay with you.”

“Of course it is, baby. I’m happy just being here with you.”

Satoru smiles across the table at him as they continue eating their dinner, the setting sun coming through the window and lighting their faces with a golden bath of sunlight. “You want some dessert?” Satoru asks, grabbing both of their plates and taking them back to the kitchen before opening the fridge.

“I’m good right now baby, I think I’m gonna go shower, okay?” Suguru says, standing up from his spot at the table.

“I’ll be waiting for you.” Satoru says with a smirk as he opens up an ice cream bar from the freezer and sticks it in his mouth. Suguru smiles to himself as he makes his way back towards the bathroom to take a shower before bed. Satoru finishes his ice cream and also heads to the bedroom. He strips down to his underwear and climbs into bed, pulling the covers up over himself as he looks at his phone. All the lights are turned off except for the bathroom lights overflowing out into the bedroom.

Satoru didn’t even realize how tired he was until he felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier. Shit, no. He tries to fight it, but ultimately loses the battle and drifts off to sleep, waiting for Suguru to join him in bed.

Suguru finishes his shower and finally turns off the bathroom light before heading back out only to see that Satoru is fast asleep in the middle of the bed. Suguru smiles to himself as he climbs into bed beside him. “Satoru?” He whispers, not wanting to wake him if he really is asleep. When there’s no answer, he figures that he really must have been the tired one after their day of traveling. “Good night, Toru.” Suguru whispers before leaving a delicate kiss to his temple and draping his arm over his waist. The sound of the ocean acts as white noise helping him drift peacefully off to sleep.

~~~~~~~~~~

“That one looks like you.” Suguru says, pointing to a preserved goblin shark sitting in one of the many tanks in the deep sea section of the aquarium.

“Hey!” Satoru whisper-yells while Suguru chuckles quietly. He looks around, trying to find something that he can compare Suguru to to get back at him. “Yeah? Well you look like that one.” Satoru retorts, pointing at one of the spider crabs in the main tank.

“I do not!” Suguru tries to argue back as they walk through the exhibit.

“Yes you do, but don’t worry, I love you no matter what you look like, Sugu.” Satoru coos, trying to turn it around. Suguru shakes his head as he grabs Satoru’s hand and pulls him along, wanting to go to the next section. “Would you love me if I was a goblin shark?”

“Shut up, of course I would. Let’s go to the Kuroshio sea already.” Suguru says, getting impatient and wanting to finally see the large tank. They head back through a room with a tank full of sharks and make out to the large blue room. The blue light coming from the tanks is all that’s lighting the entire room. The two of them walk towards the back of the room so that they can get the view of the whole thing, as well as stay on the edges of the crowd. Suguru’s mouth is open as the giant whale shark swims by, along with a few other fish swimming alongside with it.

Satoru doesn’t pay attention to the actual fish as much as he does to Suguru’s reaction to it all. He smiles as he watches Suguru look at everything, just taking it all in.

“This is so fucking cool.” Suguru whispers, not wanting one of the many kids running around to hear him cursing. Satoru chuckles lightly and smiles as Suguru finally turns to look at him.

“Isn’t it?” Satoru asks, finally turning to look at the tank for a moment. Hundreds of fish swim together, their scales shining as they all turn together as a school. There are so many different species of fish and other sea life, he doesn’t even know what to focus on.

“Your eyes are the same color.” Suguru says, looking between Satoru and the massive tank in front of them. Satoru smiles silently, giving Suguru’s hand a squeeze as he turns to look at him once again. Suguru is too busy looking at the giant manta ray that swims by, also accompanied by many smaller fish. He takes out his phone and snaps just a couple pictures before putting it away. What he didn’t notice, though, was Satoru taking pictures of his reactions to everything.

Satoru slips his phone back in his pocket sneakily, excited to go back and look at the pictures later.

“What are you smiling about?” Suguru asks, suddenly suspicious of Satoru’s smiley state.

“What? I can’t smile when I’m with you?” Satoru asks defensively, raising his eyebrows at him. Suguru narrows his eyes at him, still slightly suspicious, but not knowing what about. They stay in the same spot for about 10 minutes just looking and watching all the fish that continue to swim by. “Are you hungry?” Satoru asks, finally speaking up.

“Sure.” Suguru says, nodding his head. Satoru leads the way to the cafe where they luckily are able to get a table next to the glass.

They eat their food while giant manta rays and whale sharks swim by just above them, making for a breathtaking lunch. “Thank you, baby.” Suguru says, looking across the table at Satoru as he eats the blue colored cupcake he picked out. “This is amazing.”

“Anything for you, Suguboo.” Satoru says with a big smile on his face, his mouth full of cupcake.

“You wanna head back after you’re done?” Suguru suggests. They had already been at the aquarium for a good few hours and had seen pretty much everything. Satoru nods his head eagerly as he finishes stuffing the last bit of the cupcake into his mouth. He quickly finishes and they clean up after themselves before heading back towards the front to catch their ride back to the resort.

The ride isn’t too terribly long, but Suguru enjoys looking out the window as they drive along the coast. Satoru rests his head on Suguru’s shoulder and lets his fingers brush aimlessly along his thigh, slowly making their way further and further up until Suguru finally pushes his hand back down towards his knee with a quiet click of his tongue.

“Did you forget when I told you to behave and you agreed?” Suguru asks, leaning in close to Satoru’s ear for only him to hear.

“Nope.” Satoru says with a cheeky smile. Suguru shakes his head and scoffs lightly at him, knowing that he’s just trying to get him riled up.

“Well…” Suguru starts, his voice low and dark, “The more you keep acting like this, the longer you’re prolonging getting what you want.” He says before pulling back and flashing Satoru the sweetest smile possible. Satoru swallows thickly as he sits back in his seat, deciding to keep his hands to himself for the remainder of the drive.

They make it back to the villa and head back inside, thoroughly surprised with how much fun they had at the aquarium. “Did you have fun, Gugu?” Satoru asks as Suguru closes the door behind them. He turns around and his hands find a spot on Suguru’s waist, pulling him in closer.

“I really did.” Suguru says as he gets closer to Satoru’s face. Satoru looks at him, waiting for a moment before Suguru finally closes the gap with a deep kiss. “Thank you.” He whispers before leaving him with one last kiss before walking past him into the bedroom. Satoru lets out a groan and follows behind him, thinking that their kiss would lead somewhere.

“Do you wanna go down to the beach?” Satoru suggests, going to grab his swim shorts from where they sit in the drawer.

“Sure!” Sugugu calls out from the bathroom. “Just let me put my hair up and we can go, okay?”

Satoru gets into his swimsuit and sits on the cushy bench at the foot of the bed as he waits for Suguru. Suguru finally comes out of the bathroom with his hair up and his swimsuit on, ready to head down to the beach. Satoru stands up, excited and ready to go swim in the ocean. “Sugu, you look so cute in your little yellow shorts.” Satoru says as they make their way down the sandy path that leads to the water.

“Says you.” Suguru says, leaving a quick smack to Satoru’s ass, making him jump as they continue down the path.

“Ah!” He lets out a yelp as he jumps at the feeling. “Don’t do that!”

“Shut up, you love it.” Suguru says with a smirk. Satoru is silent, knowing what Suguru’s telling the truth and if he tries to say otherwise, he’ll call him out on it. They make it down to the beach after their short walk, and spot a daybed with linen curtains draped over it flowing in the light ocean breeze. They drop their towels onto the bed and Satoru immediately sprints into the water, splashing like crazy the entire way. Suguru chuckles to himself as he sets his book down and covers it with his towel and goes to join Satoru in the water.

“Come on! It’s perfect!” Satoru calls out, trying to hurry Suguru along.

“I’m coming, I’m coming, calm down.” Suguru murmurs as he finally wades into the water. The light blue water is the perfect temperature to combat the hot afternoon sun. Satoru almost immediately splashes Suguru as he gets closer to him. “Hey!” Suguru shouts, trying to shield himself from his attack. Once he gets close enough, he starts splashing him back, but much more effectively.

“Ah! Okay, okay! That’s enough!” Satoru shouts, quickly surrendering to Suguru’s relentless splashing.

“So quick to give up, huh?” Suguru teases as he stops splashing and stands next to Satoru as they bob up and down in the calm waves. Satoru wraps his arms around Suguru’s shoulders and subsequently, his legs around his hips. Suguru holds underneath Satoru’s legs as he hangs onto him like a koala.

Satoru smiles at Suguru as their faces rest just inches apart. He closes the gap and presses his lips to Suguru’s, tasting the salt of the ocean on his mouth. Suguru reciprocates, licking his tongue lightly along Satoru’s bottom lip. He feels him smile against his lips and pulls away suddenly, pulling a whine from him.

“Suguruuuu.” Satoru whines. “I just want to kiss youuu.” He draws out his words, looking at Suguru with puppy dog eyes and his bottom lip stuck out in a pout.

“You see, Toru… I think you have ulterior motives.” Suguru says, teasing lightly.

“Of course I do.” Satoru says, rolling his eyes like it was already obvious. Suguru chuckles lightly before Satoru lets go and floats by himself for a moment. “This feels so nice.” Satoru says, the water rippling over his shoulders while he floats on his back. Suguru watches him fondly, thinking about how lucky he feels to have Satoru in his life.

They float around in the warm water for a while before Suguru finally decides to go up and sit on the beach and read for a while. Satoru’s sunglasses sit beside their towels, so he picks them up and puts them on, using them to shield his eyes while he reads. He dries off and lays down on the daybed while Satoru continues floating around in the water and picking up whatever things he finds in the sand. “Gugu, look at this!” Satoru shouts out as he holds up a large shell that he found while walking around in the shallow water.

“Nice!” Suguru shouts back, smiling wide at how excited Satoru is about his discovery. He continues reading through his book, looking up every so often when Satoru would call out to him. The sea breeze is soothing as it flows over his damp salty skin. The beaming sun is filtered through the linen curtains draped over the frame covering the bed, making it the perfect temperature to sit there and read. He sits propped up against the large fluffy cushions, not even noticing when Satoru finally comes out of the water and up to where he sits.

He dries off and sits down at the edge of the cushion, looking back at Suguru as he leans back on his elbows, holding the book in front of him with his knees bent and splayed out wide. Satoru crawls up the middle of the bed and lays down on his stomach right in between Suguru’s legs, snaking his arms up and around his waist as he lays on his stomach. His chin rests on Suguru’s stomach as he looks up, waiting for Suguru to pay attention to him.

“Suguru.” Satoru’s long legs are splayed wide behind him, his feet hanging off the edges of the bed. “Suguru… Sugu.” He continues, starting to poke Suguru’s book to try to get him to pay attention to him while Suguru does his best to ignore him. “Suguruuuuuuuuu.” Satoru draws out. Suguru finally puts his bookmark in the book and sets it to the side.

“Yes my darling angel?” Suguru asks sarcastically, his face waiting for him to continue what was so important. Satoru’s sunglasses sit low on his nose as he looks over the edges down at him.

“Pay attention to me.” Satoru commands.

Suguru looks at him blankly for a moment, nothing but the noise of the waves crashing on the shore and the light breeze flowing past. “Is that really what you’re acting like this for?” Satoru nods his head enthusiastically before Suguru picks back up his book and continues right where he left off, now using Satoru’s head as a stand to keep his book upright. Satoru furrows his eyebrows behind the book before laying his head back down in Suguru’s lap.

He lays there peacefully for a while before Suguru feels a set of teeth on the skin of his stomach.

“Did you just bite me?” Suguru asks, setting his book down once again, holding his finger in between the pages to hold his spot.

“You love it when I bite you.” Satoru says, looking up at him, his mouth still sitting right next to the bare skin that he just lightly sank his teeth into.

“Yeah, under different circumstances.” Suguru admits, looking to the side with a slight grin.

“Come on, bangs.” Satoru says, looking up at Suguru through his eyelashes.

Suguru furrows his brows down at him. “Did- Did you just call me bangs?” Suguru asks, surprised by the suddenly new nickname.

“Yeah.”

“Alright toe, listen here. How about you let me finish this chapter and then we can go back and shower and eat dinner, yeah?”

“Why toe?” Satoru asks, looking up at Suguru confused and completely ignoring the rest of his suggestion.

“You know, like Sa-toe-ru.” Suguru says with a shrug. “It makes sense.”

Satoru shakes his head with a smile on his face. “It’s alright.”

“Alright?! I’ve been sitting on this one for weeks.” Suguru explains, now completely forgetting about his book.

“I just think you could’ve done better. It’s not the worst though. Better than Gogo, at least.” Satoru looks up at Suguru with the sweetest eyes he can muster. “Can we pleaseee go back now?” Satoru whines, wanting to head back.

“You can head back now, but I’m finishing this chapter.” Suguru says, focusing on his book once again. Satoru lets out a groan and settles back down, laying his head on Suguru’s lap and deciding to patiently wait for him to finish, knowing that he isn’t going to change his mind.

Suguru finally finishes his chapter after what Satoru swears are hours, but in reality, it’s only about ten minutes. When Suguru sticks his book mark back in and closes his book, Satoru immediately jumps up, excited to head back. He grabs all their things, not wanting Suguru to have an excuse to take any longer. Satoru nearly drags Suguru back to the villa, wanting to get into the shower already.

“Sugu, come on!” Satoru whines, trying to pull him along. They make it back and Satoru immediately heads into the bathroom to turn the shower on. Suguru puts his book and Satoru’s sunglasses on the nightstand before following Satoru into the bathroom.

“What are you so eager for?” Suguru asks with a hidden smirk, fully knowing the answer to his own question. Satoru is already in the outdoor shower when Suguru makes it into the bathroom. He chuckles to himself as he steps through the door leading outside.

Satoru is standing under the water already, rubbing the feeling of the ocean water and sand from his face when Suguru finally joins him. The evening sun peeks over the sides of the privacy wall, letting them shower while the sun begins to slowly set over the ocean. He stands behind him and rests his hands on the sides of Satoru’s shoulders before pressing a tender kiss to the side of his neck.

“Suguru…” Satoru says in a warning tone. “Please don’t tease me like that if you’re not going to follow through.”

“You think I should listen to you when you’ve been acting like a brat since we got here?” Suguru asks, his mouth right next to Satoru’s ear as he talks, leaving shivers up his back and arms.

Satoru turns around and looks at Suguru with begging eyes. “But yesterday you said if I behave-” Suguru immediately cuts him off.

“And you think you’ve behaved?” Suguru asks with one eyebrow raised. Satoru shuts his mouth, tucking his lips in between his teeth. “Exactly.” Suguru says with a smirk as he wraps his arms around Suguru’s shoulders and pulls him closer.

“But I will, Sugu, I promise.” Satoru says as he jets out his bottom lip into a pout.

“Actions speak louder than words, y’know?” Suguru says with a slight teasing tone in his voice. Satoru rolls his eyes and lets his head fall back with an exasperated groan.

“You’re just cruel.” Satoru says, using the same response from the previous night. Suguru smiles at him, his face unchanged. They finish rinsing off before stepping back inside and drying off. Satoru stands at the mirror with a towel wrapped low around his hips and Suguru does the same as he dries his hair.

Suguru gets his hair most of the way dry and throws it up haphazardly into a bun while Satoru waits on the bed wearing absolutely nothing. “Are you trying to seduce me now?” Suguru asks with a slight chuckle, walking out of the bathroom through the bedroom towards the kitchen wearing just a pair of shorts. Satoru doesn’t say anything and just watches as Suguru continues out of the room. He sits up with a huff and pulls on shorts of his own, deciding to follow him out.

They had decided earlier in the day to order dinner from one of the resort restaurants to be delivered, so they eat their dinner while they snuggle up on the couch and watch a movie in the living room together. The setting sun comes through the wall of windows, painting the entire house with a warm golden light like no other. After they finish with their food, Suguru sits back with his arm up on the back of the couch and Satoru cuddles up into him, wrapping his arms around his torso and resting his head on the warm bare skin of his chest as they sit together under one of the soft fluffy blankets on the couch.

Suguru continues watching the movie, but quickly notices Satoru has stopped paying attention entirely and has made it his life’s mission to make it impossible for Suguru to pay attention as well. Instead, he’s started to leave soft kisses on Suguru’s chest and up towards the bottom of his neck. Suguru leans his head back almost involuntarily to allow Satoru to keep working his way up with his warm lips. No matter how much he enjoys toying with and teasing Satoru, he wants him just as bad. Suguru can feel the smile on Satoru’s soft lips as they press against his neck over and over again, not leaving an inch unkissed. He stops just below Suguru’s jaw to suck lightly, quickly leaving a purple mark on his neck. Suguru smiles, knowing what he’s doing, and this time, he’s decided to let him continue.

Satoru continues kissing and sucking lightly all over Suguru’s neck and jaw, leaving faint purple marks on his skin before he moves up to kiss on his ear. He presses a kiss right below it before he takes Suguru’s earlobe in between his teeth, biting it gently and tugging on it before letting go again.

Suguru has to restrain himself from letting out a groan at the feeling, not wanting to give in just yet. “Satoru?” Suguru softly asks, the smile apparent in his voice. Satoru hums in response, acting completely clueless. “What are you doing?” Suguru asks although he already knows the answer.

Satoru pulls away and looks up at Suguru with a cheeky smile. “Nothin.’”

“Hm.” Suguru says, looking down his nose at Satoru. “Interesting.” He looks back at the tv. “It just seems to me like you’re trying to do something…” Satoru smiles as he almost immediately dives back in to continue leaving kisses on Suguru’s neck. He inhales slowly, letting his head tilt back once again as his eyes flutter closed, taking in the feeling of Satoru’s lips leaving wet kisses in the perfect spots. Damn him for knowing me so well. “Sweetheart?”

The way it melts out of his mouth makes Satoru smile against his skin once again. “Mmhm?” Satoru hums again in response. Suguru feels his breath tickle the soft skin of his neck.

“Why don’t you just tell me what it is that you want?” He asks, his hand starting to rub gentle circles on Satoru’s back. He knows full well what Satoru wants, but needs to hear him say it first. Satoru pulls back from where he’s attached to Suguru’s neck and looks up at him with an almost desperate look on his face.

“Sugu, I’ve been telling you since we got here that I want you.” He says, the end of his sentence turning more into a whine than anything else. Suguru smiles at him, the needy look in his eyes almost making him break… Almost.

“Baby, I’m right here.” He answers completely seriously, trying to play dumb for as long as he can.

Satoru rolls his eyes. “You know that’s not what I mean.”

“I’m not so sure that I do know what you mean?” Suguru continues to play dumb, enjoying seeing how absolutely crazy it drives Satoru.

Satoru lets out his breath with a huff as his head falls back, his eyes closed with a pained look on his face before he looks back at Suguru with furrowed brows. “I know what you’re doing here, Gugu.”

“Oh really? And what exactly is it that I’m doing?” Suguru asks with a playful smirk.

“You’re denying me my basic human needs.” Satoru says dramatically, making Suguru let out a chuckle at his insane explanation. “I’m serious!”

“Are you sure you need it?” Suguru asks with a raised brow. Satoru nods his head eagerly, thinking he’s finally going to get what he’s been waiting so impatiently for. “I think you just want it.”

“Okay, I want it.” Satoru says, shaking his head. “What’s your point?” His legs quickly find their way thrown across Suguru’s lap as he pulls himself closer. Suguru takes a deep breath as he feels Satoru’s weight shift to sit on his lap. He tries his best to focus on not getting hard yet, because where’s the fun in teasing Satoru like this if he has something to work with?

“Baby, what kind of boyfriend would I be if I just gave you everything you wanted all the time?” Suguru asks sweetly.

“A good one?” Satoru looks down with a smirk and a glint in his eye, knowing full well that he’s being a smartass to try to get a rise out of his stubborn boyfriend.

“Tch.” Suguru clicks his tongue before he chuckles once again, surprised he didn’t see that answer coming. His hand unexpectedly reaches up to grab the back of Satoru’s hair, holding it snugly in between his fingers as he tilts his head slightly back, making the delicate skin of his neck more accessible.

“Hah-” Satoru breathes out at the feeling, a crazed smile quickly spreading across his face as Suguru leans in close to his neck. Satoru shivers at the feeling of his warm breath tickling the skin just below his ear.

“You really don’t realize just how much of a spoiled brat you are, do you?” Suguru whispers before pressing a single hot tender kiss to Satoru’s neck, pulling a soft whine from the back of his throat. He smiles at the sound, finding it a thousand times harder to hold back now.

“I think you should show me.” Satoru whispers back, thinking he’s finally won. Suguru’s face falters for a moment while he thinks before letting go of Satoru’s hair and sitting back, resting his hands lightly on Satoru’s legs that sit on either side of his hips.

“Hm, I don’t think so.” Suguru says, shaking his head, trying to seem unimpressed, but inside he’s screaming for it just as bad as Satoru is. He’s having a little too much fun teasing him like this to give it up now.

Satoru’s expression quickly falls, thinking he for sure had finally been successful. His brows furrow as he slowly shifts the way he’s sitting. Suguru does his best to keep a straight face as Satoru slowly grinds his hips downwards, moving in slow, smooth circles. Satoru smirks as he feels Suguru starting to get hard underneath him. “Just because you make me hard doesn’t mean I have to fuck you.” Suguru says, meeting Satoru’s eyes with his eyebrows raised. He does everything in his power to hide how good it actually feels because unfortunately, both of them are equally as stubborn when it comes to their own convictions.

“I know,” Satoru starts with a cheeky smile on his face, continuing to slowly move his hips around. Suguru’s face changes to one of uncertainty, not completely sure of what he means by that. Satoru leans back down to continue kissing Suguru’s neck while he straddles his hips. “You don’t have to.” Suguru is slightly surprised at Satoru’s seemingly sudden change in approach.

“And what do you mean by that?” Suguru asks, now curious.

Satoru tosses the blanket to the side before he climbs off of Suguru and kneels on the floor in front of the couch. “You’ll find out soon enough.” The smug smirk on Satoru’s face as he kisses down Suguru’s bare tattooed chest and stomach is one of someone with a plan. Suguru quickly realizes what he’s doing while Satoru starts giving soft kisses to his hardened cock straining against his shorts. He finally decides to stop talking and just watch as Satoru kisses it through the fabric. He inhales sharply through his nose when Satoru’s hand finally reaches up to massage him through his shorts for a moment before impatiently hooking his fingers into the waistband.

“So desperate to have my cock in your mouth you can’t even wait any longer?” Suguru teases as he lifts up his hips to allow Satoru to pull his shorts off, although he’s just as desperate to feel Satoru’s hot mouth around him. Satoru doesn’t answer as he looks at the sight in front of him like it’s his first time.

“So beautiful.” Satoru mutters with a smile and eyes full of admiration. Suguru can’t help but blush at his comment, shaking his head as he breathes slowly. Satoru takes it in his hand and gives it a few slow pumps, looking up at Suguru’s eyes the entire time, waiting for a reaction. Suguru inhales deeply once again, doing his best to remain expressionless. “Really? You’re gonna give me nothing?” Satoru asks, raising his eyebrows with surprise. Suguru can’t help but laugh lightly at his reaction. “There’s my pretty Sugu’s laugh.” Satoru praises as he leans down to press a few kisses up the side and finally on the tip, feeling the hot skin against his lips. “Could listen to it all day long.” Satoru continues, looking up from his spot on the floor.

Suguru finally lets a smile stay on his face. He won’t say it out loud, but he wants to feel the back of Satoru’s throat more than anything right now. What the fuck is he doing to me? Suguru is almost always the one in charge, but right now he can’t help but nearly drool at the way this is making him feel. I think I could get used to this. Satoru quickly takes his mind off of it when his warm mouth closes around the tip of his aching cock. He watches for a moment, taking in the utterly perfect sight in front of him.

Satoru traces his tongue around Suguru’s leaking tip before pulling away for a moment, leaving his tongue hanging out his mouth. The string of saliva mixed with precum connecting Satoru’s tongue to Suguru’s pleading tip is enough to make Suguru’s hips shift upwards, nearly chasing after Satoru’s mouth as he pulls away. He has to hold back the noise that wants to escape from deep in his chest, but Satoru notices the look on his face anyways.

“Not so nice when it happens to you, huh?” Satoru teases, looking up at Suguru with innocent eyes.

Suguru shakes his head as his nose scrunches slightly. “Fuck you.” He breathes out, looking down at Satoru with darkened eyes.

“You want to, huh?” Satoru continues teasing, holding his hand firmly around the base of Suguru’s cock, not loosening his grip whatsoever.

Fuck. Where the hell did this version of my boyfriend come from? Suguru thinks to himself. Satoru finally lowers his mouth around him once again, this time going further than just the tip. Suguru finally lets out a groan from deep in his throat, letting Satoru know how good he’s already doing as he continues. Even when Suguru’s head falls back over the edge of the couch, Satoru’s eyes stay focused up on his face, wanting to see every reaction from him. Suguru’s eyes fall shut and his mouth hangs open, his chest moving more as his breathing picks up slightly.

“Shit, baby. Doing so fucking good.” Suguru hisses as one of his hands laces itself into Satoru’s snowy hair, holding onto his head gently as he continues taking him deeper and deeper. Satoru hums happily around his cock, looking up through his bright eyelashes and into Suguru’s dark honeyed eyes. “Mmm.” Suguru hums back in response, the vibrations from Satoru’s mouth feeling absolutely incredible.

The sun has mostly set, leaving them in the warmly lit house, surrounded by glass and the trees outside, but all they can focus on is one another. Satoru has one hand on Suguru’s thigh and the other gently massaging his balls as he takes him all the way into his mouth and throat. Tears are starting to brim the edges of his eyes and his mouth stings from the stretch, but he doesn’t care whatsoever. He would do anything to see Suguru just like this. His jaw is stiff and his throat is starting to become sore, so he takes the hand that rests on Suguru’s thigh and replaces his mouth with it, keeping up the same pace he had.

“How do I look, Suguru?” A mixture of drool and precum falls from his bright pink puffy lips down his chin onto Suguru’s shiny cock as he says it. His eyes are misty with tears threatening to spill over the edges and down his rosy pink cheeks.

Suguru’s hips jerk uncontrollably as he says it. “Fuck, Satoru.” He says shakily, his chest heaving up and down. If he didn’t have more self control, he would’ve cum just at his words. “Gonna fucking cum with you looking like that.” He warns, looking down at him with pink cheeks and his mouth slightly open, his bangs starting to stick to his forehead.

“Well we don’t want that, now do we?” Satoru says, looking up at Suguru with a fake pout, almost like he’s mocking him. Suguru shakes his head and lets out a chuckle as he grabs Satoru by the chin, leaning forward and pulling him up to meet him. Their lips crash together, a slick but sticky mess as Suguru quickly slips his tongue inside, tasting himself as he licks needily into his mouth. Satoru lets his tongue push back, smiling as Suguru lets out a deep moan into his mouth. Satoru is the first to pull away this time, standing up and quickly pulling off his shorts and kicking them off to the side. Before Suguru even has time to react, Satoru has one leg on either side of his hips, straddling him on the couch.

Suguru’s hands make their way up Satoru’s back, spreading his fingers wide and pulling his body as close as possible and back in for another kiss. Satoru smiles against Suguru’s mouth as he grinds his hips down against his still slick length. “Mmmh.” Suguru groans into Satoru’s mouth as he feels his weight press down. Satoru reaches down between them and grabs Suguru’s cock to position it against himself. Suguru looks up at him, waiting patiently until he finally sinks down painfully slowly.

“Ahh, fuck. So big, Sugu.” Satoru breathes out as he lowers himself, feeling Suguru slowly stretching him out and filling him up. He continues until he’s sitting all the way down on Suguru’s lap, flush against each other, waiting there for a moment before moving.

“You look so fucking pretty like this, baby.” Suguru says, looking up at Satoru with an enamored smile on his face. Satoru has a look of gratification on his face as he finally has what he wants; or so he thinks. He grabs onto Suguru’s shoulders holding onto him as he finally lifts himself back up and lowers himself once again, slowly starting to ride Suguru.

“Ah, f-fuck.” He stutters out, feeling the emptiness and fullness again as he slowly raises and lowers himself on Suguru’s cock. Suguru watches with a smirk on his face.

“You’re already squeezing me so tight, baby.” He says in a gravely tone. “Love watching you bounce up and down on my cock.” Satoru’s eyes are screwed shut, unable to focus on anything other than the feeling of Suguru deep inside of him. “You can’t even speak, can you?” Suguru asks, teasing him with a chuckle. Satoru’s eyes open and he looks down at Suguru as he continues bouncing up and down.

“Fuck… Yo-u.” He manages to get out, his voice just as shaky at his breathing. Suguru cracks a cheeky smile as he watches, locking his fingers together behind his head and leaning back as he watches Satoru fall apart on top of him.

“It’s been- what?- 30 seconds, and you're already like this?” Suguru teases, looking at the beautiful view on top of him. Satoru stops for a moment, his thighs already starting to burn from being on top. He lets out a whiny moan as he wiggles his hops around, feeling Suguru reaching where he could never with just his own fingers. “Done already?” Satoru lets out another whine as he looks down at Suguru. “Do I need to do everything for you?” He asks, unclasping his hands from behind his head and grabbing at Satoru’s ass, digging his fingers into the flesh before lifting him up on his own and dropping him back down.

“Ah, shit!” Satoru cries out as he continues, now with Suguru’s help. The lewd sound of skin slapping together fills the living room, completely drowning out the sound of the long forgotten movie that they had been watching. “Nngh-” Satoru’s legs feel like they’re going to give out beneath him, but Suguru is doing most of the work lifting him up and slamming him back down on his cock.

“You’re really tired already?” Suguru teases again when he stops helping and Satoru stills once again, sitting there feeling full of Suguru’s cock. Satoru looks down at him, breathing heavily with his mouth hanging slightly ajar. Suguru shakes his head with a smirk. “Hold on.” He commands Satoru as he grabs onto the bottom of his thighs. Satoru immediately listens and wraps his arms around the back of his shoulders, resting his head in the crook of his neck as Suguru leans forward and stands up, successfully keeping himself inside. He hurries through the kitchen and back towards the bedroom before tossing Satoru on the bed.

The smile on Satoru’s face is one of victory, knowing that he’s finally getting what he wants. He lays on his back, looking up with a smirk while Suguru stands at the edge of the bed. Suguru grabs Satoru’s hips and pulls him towards the edge and flips him over so that he’s on his knees. With no warning whatsoever, Suguru thrusts himself back into Satoru’s tight hole, earning a shriek of surprise from him.

“Ah! Fuck, Sugu!” Satoru cries out, not expecting him to start up again so suddenly. He feels Suguru’s fingers digging into the sides of his waist, holding on tightly as he fucks relentlessly into him. “Sugu,” He manages to breathe out. “The doors are still open.” Satoru points out.

“Baby, I don’t care if the whole fucking island hears.” Suguru growls out. The next villa wasn’t necessarily close, but close enough to hear if you’re being as loud as Satoru is.

“Fu-u-ck.” Satoru cries out, his long fingers gripping the sheets beneath him as Suguru continues drilling deep into him. Suguru lets out an almost animalistic groan at the feeling of Satoru squeezing around his cock. He slows down for a moment before stopping, looking down at the way Satoru’s back arches and his arms are shoved out in front of him. Satoru whines as soon as he feels Suguru’s hips still. “Don’t stop.” He pushes himself back up on his hands before starting to push himself back against Suguru, moving himself if Suguru won’t do it for him. “Ah-ah-ngh.”

Suguru looks down at the view in front of him, his mouth open as he watches Satoru’s ass bounce back against his hips, watching his cock disappear completely into him. “Fuck. Yeah, fuck yourself with my cock, baby, just like that.” Satoru turns back to look at Suguru as he continues, his mouth hanging open and his eyebrows screwed together as his hair hangs in front of his eyes. “My pretty Toru.” He says before kneeling on the bed and readjusting the two of them towards the top of the mattress. Suguru quickly replaces his hands on either side of Satoru’s waist and continues his rough, deep thrusts once again.

Satoru shoves his face down into the pillows as whiny moans slip from his mouth, his eyes rolling back into his head as his legs start to feel shaky underneath himself. He reaches back towards Suguru, smiling dumbly when he feels Suguru’s hand grab tightly onto his.

“How’s my pretty toru doing?” Suguru questions, not bothering to slow down whatsoever. Loud obscene sounds of their bodies slapping together echo throughout the room and out into the outside through the open doors. “Regretting acting like a brat?” He lands a swift smack on Satoru’s ass, earning a loud mewl from him and quickly leaving a red mark from where his hand hit. Both of their bodies are covered in a sheen of sweat, shiny and sticky from the activity.

Satoru lifts his head from the pillows, steadying himself on shaky arms. “Never.” He says, turning back to look at Suguru with an alluring smirk on his rosy pink face.

“Fuck, I love you.” Suguru says, seeing the fucked out look on Satoru’s face. He slows down for a moment, leaning over to press a few tender kisses to Satoru’s back. “If you want me to fuck you like the cock-hungry whore that you are, why don’t you just ask nicely, baby? You don't have to be such a brat.” Suguru keeps thrusting deep into him with every word, feeling Satoru’s walls squeezing him tighter than ever before.

Satoru can’t help but cry out loudly into the pillow as Suguru hits the sweet spot deep inside him over and over again, seemingly effortlessly. He quickly feels himself coming close to the edge, knowing that he’s going to cum any second. “Shit, Sugu, slow down, gonna cum.” He says weakly, turning around to look up at Suguru with misty eyes.

Suguru hears him but ignores him, not caring. “So cum for me then.” He says darkly, breathing heavily and keeping up with the same vigorous pace. Satoru holds his bottom lip in between his teeth, fruitlessly trying to hold back his cries as he tips over the edge, Suguru continuing to relentlessly thrust into him.

“F-fuuck, Sugu, ah- hah- hahh.” He draws out as his muscles contract while Suguru fucks him through his orgasm. “Shi-i-it.” He mewls, Suguru hitting his sweet spot over and over as he climaxes, cum spilling out onto the bed sheets beneath him. His knees start to actually give out underneath him, but Suguru holds his hips up as he keeps going. “Ah-hah, too much Sugu, slow down.” He begs weakly, turning back to look at Suguru.

Shaking his head, Suguru does anything but slows down. “You wanted this baby, you’re gonna get it.” Suguru has a smirk on his face as he chases after his own orgasm, the feeling of Satoru’s walls quivering around him trying to pull it from him. He lets Satoru’s hips fall and leans over him, continuing to fuck his cock into him as he lays there face down in the pillows. “Look at you,” Suguru says, his voice gravelly as he speaks, leaning on his elbows that are now on either side of Satoru’s body as he drills down into him from behind. “Fucked you dumb, didn’t I?” He asks, not expecting an answer from Satoru.

“Mmm-ngh.” Satoru manages to get out as he feels his legs shaking uncontrollably. The wave of euphoria washing over him combined underneath the weight of Suguru on top of him is almost too much, tears threatening to spill over the edges of his eyes.

“Yeah, I did, didn’t I?” Suguru teases, answering his own question while chuckling lightly at Satoru’s inability to actually answer. His core starts to tighten, starting to feel himself inch closer and closer to the edge, while Satoru feels himself quickly building towards a second orgasm.

Nothing but muffled whimpers escape Satoru as he quickly grows oversensitive, feeling overstimulated by everything happening around him. He lifts his head up out of the pillows, tears spilling out of his eyes and down his cheeks as he sobs blissfully at the feeling of Suguru slamming his cock into him. He cries out loudly as Suguru hits his sweet spot over and over again, showing no sign of slowing down. Suguru’s teeth sink into the flesh of Satoru’s shoulder, leaving marks before pressing kisses to each one of the bite marks he leaves behind.

Suguru keeps pressing kisses to the back of Satoru’s shoulder, hearing his cries as he continues, feeling close, himself. “Fuck, baby. You’re squeezing me so tight, ‘m gonna cum.” He says into Satoru’s ear as he continues leaving kisses all over his skin, comforting him as he bullies his hole mercilessly. He suddenly spills himself into Satoru without any more warning, resulting in more loud cries from Satoru as he feels Suguru’s hot load filling him up. “Oh my fucking god, holy shit.” Suguru spits out curses as he tips over the edge.

Unable to speak, Satoru practically sees stars as he cums for a second time, whimpering weakly as Suguru continues fucking him through his own orgasm. His walls contract around Suguru, effectively milking him of every last drop. “Fuck, baby, you cumming again?” Suguru teases him as he slowly comes to a stop, lying still on top of Satoru for a moment to catch his breath. Their skin sticks together, pressed against each other as Suguru leaves soft kisses to Satoru’s shoulders. Satoru breathes heavily underneath him, just waiting until Suguru finally lifts his weight off of the top of him.

Suguru pulls out of Satoru, watching mesmerized as his cum spills out of Satoru’s hole. What a fucking sight. He leans over and presses a soft kiss to Satoru’s back before laying down next to him for a moment, calming down after his high. “You okay sweetheart?” Suguru asks, still breathing heavily as he looks over at Satoru who still lays face down in the pillows.

A muffled, “Mmhm,” comes out from an unmoving Satoru. Suguru lets out a slight chuckle as he throws his legs over the edge of the bed and stands up. “Stay right there, okay?” He says as he heads into the bathroom. He hears another, “Mmhm,” from Satoru, making him smile to himself, a feeling of pride having successfully fucked him within an inch from his life. He goes to turn on the faucet to get the bathtub filling up and hurries back through the bedroom and out towards the kitchen.

The open doors allow the cool evening breeze to flow through the house, successfully cooling him off and bringing in the salty smell of the ocean that successfully masks the smell of sex that lingers behind. He quickly grabs a glass of water and fills it up, also grabbing one of the small brownie pies that Satoru had picked out from one of the shops they had gone into earlier in the day. He takes a sip of the water as he makes his way back into the bedroom and sets it, as well as the pie down on the nightstand beside the bed, seeing Satoru still laying motionless in the pillows.

He hurries into the bathroom to make sure the tub isn’t getting too full and to add some bubbles before going back out to check on Satoru. “Baby?” He coos in a sickly sweet voice. “Are you okay?” He asks, sitting down on the edge of the bed and running his hand delicately over Satoru’s back. Satoru turns his head to look at Suguru with a tired smile, his hair a mess and his face still rosy pink.

“Mmhm.” He says with his eyes closed and a smile on his face. Suguru leans over and presses a delicate kiss to his temple, looking at him with all the love in the world behind his eyes as he brushes Satoru’s hair back out of his eyes.

“Do you want me to carry you?” He asks, now sure if Satoru can walk. He’s not surprised when he lets out another, “Mmhm,” with the tired smile still on his face. “Can you say anything else?”

Satoru shakes his head. “Mm-mm.” Suguru chuckles lightly, standing back up and carefully flipping him over and slipping his arms underneath his legs and behind his back and picking him up. He carries him into the bathroom and sets him gently into the tub, not almost full with water and bubbles. He hurries back to grab the glass of water and the brownie pie and brings them into the bathroom, setting them on the tray that rests across the large tub.

“Drink water.” He commands in a gentle yet demanding tone as he heads back out to quickly strip the messy sheets off of the bed. Satoru smiles at him from his spot in the bath and immediately reaches for the brownie instead. Suguru smiles back at him as he hurries back in and climbs into the tub opposite of him and turns off the faucet. “Was that what you wanted?” Suguru asks, a teasing smile on his face and raised eyebrows as he sinks down into the water, the heat instantly starting to soothe his muscles.

Satoru nods his head with a tired smile on his face as he chews and swallows the small treat that Suguru brought him. “Everything and more.” He says, picking up the glass to wash down the brownie with a sip of water. Suguru gently rubs Satoru’s leg under the water as it rests next to him, looking at him with a smile.

“Good.”

They sit quietly in the warm bath until the water turns cool, just enjoying each other’s company and the sound of the waves crashing in the distance. Satoru is the first to stand up and climb out of the tub, grabbing a towel to dry himself off before heading into the closet. He pulls on a pair of sweats and a tshirt while Suguru dries himself off and drains the tub. He follows after Satoru and heads into the closet and gets dressed before heading back out to the bedroom to see him sitting on the couch outside of their room that overlooks the pool.

Satoru sits there now with the small box of brownies from the kitchen, eating one as Suguru joins him, sitting down next to him. He reaches into the box that sits in Satoru’s lap and grabs one as he rests his other arm behind him along the back of the couch. Taking a bite and looking over at Satoru with a smile, he speaks up. “These are delicious. You picked a good set.”

Satoru rests his head on Suguru’s shoulder, popping the rest of the brownie in his fingers into his mouth. “I know my sweets, Gugu.” He says smugly. The cool night breeze blows past them, the heat emitting from their bodies keeping each other warm. Satoru lifts his head to look at Suguru and puts his arm behind his head before pulling the hair tie out of his hair, letting Suguru’s hair flow freely down over his shoulders.

Suguru looks at him with a questioning look. “Why?” He doesn’t bother asking a full question.

“I like it when your hair’s down. You’ve had it up all night.” Satoru explains, brushing his fingers carefully through his long raven locks. Suguru smiles, closing his eyes at the feeling, taking that as an acceptable answer. Satoru keeps the hair tie on his wrist and rests his head back down on Suguru’s shoulder. They sit in comfortable silence, eating their box of brownies until Satoru finally speaks up again. “Suguru?” He asks quietly.

“Yeah?” Suguru responds in the same calm, gentle voice.

“Do you think we’re meant to be together in every universe?” Satoru asks, his voice genuine as he speaks. Suguru furrows his brows, somewhat surprised at the random question, but smiling after thinking about it for a second.

He takes a deep breath, looking at the way the moonlight reflects off the glassy pool water in front of them. “I don’t care how cliché it sounds, but I would love you in every universe.”

Satoru sits there in silence for just a moment, seemingly thinking about Suguru’s answer. “Well…” He starts. Suguru turns his head, slightly craning his neck to look at Satoru as he lays on his shoulder. “Technically, there would be at least one where you didn’t.”

Suguru furrows his brows together and presses his lips together in a straight line as Satoru turns to look up at him. “Why the fuck did you ask then?” Suguru asks jokingly, looking at him with a confused look on his face.

Satoru smiles back up at him. “I wanted to see what you would say.”

“Do you also wanna ask me if I would love you if you were a worm while you’re at it? Because I’m not really a fan of bugs if I’m being honest.” Suguru says, his voice sounding slightly unimpressed.

Satoru’s mouth falls open with a dramatic gasp as he clutches his metaphorical pearls. “So you’re saying you wouldn’t love me in the universe where I’m a worm, but you would if I was a goblin shark?”

Suguru chuckles lightly at his response. “Maybe that’s the one, then.” He continues to play along with his ridiculous questioning, remembering their conversation from earlier in the day at the aquarium.

“Well good thing I’m not a worm then.” Satoru says, leaning his head back down on Suguru’s shoulder with a soft smile on his face. Suguru leans his head back, looking up at the sky and seeing the bright stars in the dark sky.

“Woah, you can really see the stars out here.” He says, looking up at the dark sky. Satoru looks up with him, the two of their heads leaning back over the edge of the couch. It was nothing like in the city where there was too much light pollution to see anything but the moon.

Satoru points to a bright star in the sky above them. “That’s Caph right there. Then if you look, you can see a kind of zig-zag shape and that’s the constellation Cassiopeia.” He says as Suguru listens intently, but is surprised at the sudden random knowledge from Satoru. “Though we can’t really see everything from down here, we should really be up on the roof.” Satoru continues, lifting his head back up. “Come on.” He motions, standing up and grabbing Suguru’s hand, and more importantly, the box of brownies.

“Why do you know that?” He asks, following Satoru without question as he stands up and heads inside. They make a stop in the kitchen to drop off the box of sweets, Satoru making sure to grab one more before they head up the large spiral staircase to the rooftop deck.

“It’s just interesting to me.” Satoru explains, taking a bite of the brownie as they ascend the stairs. “I’ll point out more constellations to you.”

They make it up to the roof and head out to lay down on the daybed that sits uncovered near the edge of the deck. Satoru lays down and pulls one of the pillows up under his head as Suguru lays down next to him, both of them flat on their backs. “Okay, so I showed you Cassiopeia, you see that one still?” He asks, doing his best to point it out to Suguru once again.

“Mmhm. Right there, right?” Suguru asks, also doing his best to point out the W-shaped constellation about two thirds of the way up in the sky.

“Exactly. If you follow the angle of the first and second star to the left, you see Alderamin. Do you see it?”

“I think so?” Suguru responds. It’s more of a question, not really sure if he’s looking in the correct spot at all.

“So now you can see these three stars connected to it in almost a square shape, and then a triangle kind of on the bottom of that. That’s the constellation Cepheus.”

“That’s so cool that you know that, baby.” Sugugu says, turning his head to look at Satoru with a smile.

“I know! Now pay attention!” He says, turning his head to look Suguru in the eye before motioning back up towards the sky. “If you look wayyyy up there, you can see Saturn.” Suguru chuckles silently to himself, just continuing to listen as Satoru rambles on about all the constellations that they can see in the sky above them. As the night goes on, his eyelids start to feel heavier and heavier, listening to Satoru’s voice and laying there with one of his legs thrown over Satoru’s. “Gugu, are you still listening or are you asleep?” Suguru hears, making his eyes shoot open as he inhales sharply.

“I’m awake.” He says, not sounding convincing whatsoever.

“We can go down and go to bed if you want. At this point, I’m just talking because you’re not stopping me.” Satoru clarifies. Suguru smiles, his eyes closing with it as Satoru sits up, leaning back on his hand as he looks down at Suguru.

“Are you sure? I like listening to you talk.” Suguru asks, opening his eyes and looking up at a smiling Satoru.

“Yeah. Also don’t worry, I can talk to you in bed, too, Suguboo. Come on, let's go to bed.” Satoru says before leaning down to press a soft kiss to Suguru’s lips, one to the tip of his nose, and one more to his forehead.

Suguru sits up, following Satoru back inside and down the stairs. They turn off all the lights as they make their way through the house and finally end up back in the bedroom, the doors to the outside still open. Satoru pulls them closed as Suguru brushes his teeth and hair before tossing his shirt in the closet and climbing into bed, having grabbed fresh sheets from the closet. Satoru finishes his own bedtime routine and quietly crawls into bed alongside Suguru, not surprised whatsoever to see that he’s already fast asleep, tired after their long and exciting day.

im confident enough to post FFAK, which has anal prolapse, but i dont post the true drama....... my opinions about manga. *dramatic music* sometimes i kinda want to do some reviews.. its mostly me complaining.. it makes me sound so bitter like "do you like anything kosmic!" and..yes ! i do!!! okay!! i like a lot of things. once in a while, i dip my toes into a popular series to try to see if we are a good fit. Series like: Beastars, Dorohedoro, Dungeon meshi,ect.. and i kind. well. I dont like any of them LMAO. I mean, Ok, i actually really was into Beastars for a time, but after the fight with the bear guy (its been a few years sorry) and that story arc concluded.. it just spiraled to laughable levels and did not recover. I was genuinely laughing at it at times bc it kind of felt like a desperate scramble with the like. loopholes and power upgrades.. But I was invested for a time, it had a charm to me! I also loved the art and im curious about the authors next series about santa (partly because i too, am writing a story about santa). Dorohedoro has a great visual style, fun characters, i enjoyed reading but it also kinda didnt ...land for me beyond that, which is a shame. I feel like it is a series that "should" have clicked with me. And its like, not offensive to me but.. I'll forget that ive read the whole thing. I like STUFF in it. but thats not enough for me anymore. If i had read it when i was younger tho, it might have been a diff story. idk. My most unpopular opinion of all is that... I hated Dungeon Meshi.. Sure its ..pretty! cute designs. but i found it SO painfully boring and it actually was a struggle to finish. in the end, it felt like a waste of time.. SHOCKING take i know. That is the darling of everyones heart and i like, understand WHY its popular. .. but for me, i was not fed by anything. i am unfed and starved and going to eat elsewhere oh, and i.. as a person who has read a lot of fighting mangas.. I have tried to read chainsaw man, but i dont know if I can. I did finish Fire Punch. I'm surprised to say: i kinda liked it but it took a long time to force myself to read thru it. I honestly hated many aspects of Fujimoto's storytelling/character acting that i didn't think my opinion on it would change, but I'm a little more open to it now. I dont think i could ever super be into it or whatever, but i did find genuine enjoyment in aspects of fire punch. I did not really like look back. I haven't read his other one shot(s)? Where am i going with all this..I guess im giving some unrequested reviews after all...oops... a lot of this is spurred by how houseki no kuni is one of my most fav series, not only visually/characters/story/ect.. but i cant lie.... the ending... was kind of a flop for me... gorgeous and poetic ig sure but.. AUGH! it isnt what i wanted. maybe it'll be one of those "it'll grow on me" endings but thats mostly me having to go thru the 5 stages of personal grief and gaslight myself into it, but as the like actual honest first-reaction feeling it kinda lost me. I think it did not work when i felt the confrontation btwn phos/cinnabar wasn't the one i wanted to see. i will say tho, while im dissapointed, its not like a DEEP one or anything. I know its a miracle to even get to an ending.. i guess my take away feeling from it was like "everything fit together too well, too planned" but didnt feel planned, emotionally. I wasn't sold on it. Anyway, im here to speak my truth and my hot takes which, i honestly dont even want to have that one about HnK but its the real feeling i have for it.. Once again Utena's ending just has made all these other issues i have with various stories more obvious LOL

#the series i hate MOST is one piece #those who know me in my life #know this truth about me #i loathe that thing!!!!!!#i am a hater and i dont wish to be changed #oda does good color spreads tho

ive got 0 idea if you takes reqs, but i recently finished your yuri briar x reader AND IM IN LOVE

so.

we got a slightly sick yuri, but what about an extremely ill y/n that yuri has to take care of ? with his stubborness theres sure to be some aruging

of course, if youre not feelig up to oneshots, some cute headcannons for them whould be awesome !!

youre such a great writer mwah i hope you have a good day !! :3

Sick! Fem! (Y/N) x Yuri Briar

This can be read with or without reading my Yuri Briar x Fem! Spy! (Y/N) series: An Alliance (part 1).

Beware! This fic DOES contain SPOILERS for the manga and for the Yuri Briar x Fem! (Y/N) series: An Alliance!

Setting is AFTER the reader rejoined WISE (so Yuri and (Y/N) are married and [Y/N] becomes an official double-spy).

I rarely get sick. I think part of that is because of all the viruses and infectious pathogens I've been exposed to growing up. Growing up in the poor side of Luwen, Westalis. Joining the Westalis military and watching as doctors with not enough medical experience or knowledge bullshit their way through life-threatening procedures or even unknown viruses from Ostania get tons of syringes jabbed in their shoulders. Traveling through countries and hiding in sometimes very unhygienic places as a spy. All of those factors has probably helped with my strong immune systems.

There's been times where I've been sick that it's completely left me bedridden for days, sometimes even a week or two, at a time. Every once in a blue moon, I'd get a common cold or sore throat, but if I can walk, then I can work.

I figured today must've been one of small common cold days when I woke up with a foul taste in my mouth. You know when you're sick and you have that awful taste when you cough? It's taste like that sour, off-putting taste.

I ignored the system and buried my head back into my pillow, hearing the annoying alarm shut off thanks to Yuri.

"(Y/N), it's time to get up." Yuri spoke.

We've both grown used to this routine now. Yuri spends a good ten minutes trying to drag me out of bed while I lay motionless, purposely ignoring him as I try to go back to bed.

Today, however, I feel even more tired than usual. It feels awfully hot under these covers and my body feels really sore, almost numb.

"Come on. Don't start this today! You know we have an important meeting with the Director!" Yuri groaned, getting back on the bed to crawl over to my side and grabbing my arm.

Right, the meeting with the Director. I'm supposed to go over there and discuss any new information on WISE in correlation to the chase with Winston Wheeler (and Twilight).

Me and Yuri finally healed up enough to where we can be sent back to work. I was getting real sick of that liquid diet, I never want to have soup for breakfast, lunch, and dinner ever again (Yuri can agree with me on this). My broken nose is also healed too so now I can stop wearing that stupid bandage.

Apparently, there's been a security breach in the SSS's latest website and I'm supposed to narrow down a list of potential suspects that could've caused the breach. I contacted The Handler last night and had her conduct a list of unfortunate Ostanian civilians to place blame on. I don't like having to bring innocent people into such matters, but I don't really have a choice. If the SSS finds out I'm still working with WISE, I'm royally screwed. The work the agents in WISE are given is far too important to sacrifice, so unfortunately I'm going to have to trade in unsuspecting civilians in order to keep the peace between Ostania and Westalis.

I already know the true perpetuator of who caused that security breach; it was me. I needed information on Winston Wheeler so I hacked into the SSS's security files and emails and got information, then I snuck into city hall and got some public files of Ostanian citizens with the information I learned and was able to identify WISE's mole with just a tad bit of luck. The whole operation almost costed me my head with how I almost got exposed as a WISE agent to Yuri in the sewers along with almost dying to Winston (I'll never say this to her face, but thank God that Nightfall came when she did).

"Fine, fine..." I groaned, moving my hair out of my eyes and slowly sitting up from my bed.

I stood up from the bed and felt lightheaded, whiteish-black dots appearing in my vision as my body temperature raised and a nauseous feeling came over me, my ears ringing as I felt the dull thud of myself collapsing onto the carpet.

I saw nothing for a long time, but a short time as well. I was able to regain my vision and found myself on the floor with Yuri hovering over me.

Damn, I fainted.

I've fainted a lot in my lifetime to the point it's probably unhealthy now. Exhaustion, extreme sickness when I'm bedridden, and sometimes even just from changing position too fast or standing in the same position for too long. By now I'm very aware of the symptoms, I just usually believe I can fight through it and continue on (the amount of times I coaxed myself into believing this then fainting afterwards is absolutely foolish of me by now).

"(Y/N)? Are you okay?" Yuri questioned, a concerned expression on his face.

"I tripped over my feet." I lied.

"You sure stayed on the ground for a while. You weren't responding to me." Yuri responded, a bit suspicious.

"I was hoping you'd leave me alone so I could go back to bed." I lied, again.

"Seriously? Come on, we've got work to do." Yuri sighed, grabbing my nightgown's sleeve.

Luckily my sleeve was covering my arm so he wouldn't come into direct-contact with my skin and feel how hot it is.

"Do we want to cook breakfast or go grab some?" Yuri questioned, lifting me up from the ground with ease, placing me on my feet as I mumbled a "thanks".

"Let's go out. I don't feel like cooking. I'm still sleepy." I responded, watching as Yuri walked to his closet and grabbed a pair of mundane office clothes.

"I was thinking the same thing. It'd be quicker too." Yuri commented.

I inhaled deeply, feeling as though I couldn't breathe through my nose. I still felt light-headed and I feel like I'll topple right over if I take a step forward.

"Can you choose my clothes today? I don't wanna." I breathed out, crawling back into bed and staying above the covers since it felt too hot to get under them.

"Don't plan on falling back to sleep. I will drag you into the car with you still in your nightgown if I have to." Yuri grumbled, shooting me a glare but walking to my closet nonetheless.

He looked through the hanging clothes before grabbing a green sweatshirt and finding a pair of blue jeans on a shelf. He threw the clothes at me as I worked up the energy to get today started.

"You better be dressed by the time I'm done changing." Yuri emptily-threatened, grabbing his own clothes and walking into the bathroom.

I huffed, wanting to do anything but get out of bed, yet I decided to listen to him. He's right, today is an important day. It'll help me prove my innocence to the SSS (and I have to make sure I keep Donnie's little trap shut in case he decides to put his two-bits in and expose that I was gone during the whole mole hunt.

I stood up from the bed, ignoring my wobbly head and aching head as I changed into the clothes Yuri picked out for me. It's funny that even though we're both basically married now (just without throwing a real wedding), we still change in separate rooms. I'm completely fine with that though, it's nice to take things slow.

I grabbed sock and brown boots and slipped them on, then immediately fell back onto the bed to get at least an extra minute or two of rest.

Yuri came out and looked at me, crossing his arms as he stared at me with his laser eyes.

"Are you sure you're okay? Your throat sounds sore. Do you want a cough drop?" Yuri questioned.

"I'm just really tired." I spoke, adverting eye contact.

"Should we get coffee too?" Yuri asked, tying his boots on.

"Yeah, that's a good idea." I nodded, raising my hand up in the air for Yuri to grab.

He grabbed my hand without question and lifted me off our bed, allowing me to plant my feet back on the ground. I reached for my glasses on the dresser (if you wear any) and grabbed my wallet, shoving it into my pocket.

"You're really hot." Yuri commented.

"Thanks." I smiled, still having some energy to mess with Yuri.

"I meant your skin is hot. Are you really sure you're feeling okay?" Yuri questioned, his concerned expression appearing.

"I'm fine! I'd tell you if I feel off, so don't worry about it, love." I spoke, giving him a smile in hopes to reassure him.

His shoulders released some tension, but they still weren't fully relaxed, so he doesn't believe me just yet.

"I just have a small cold, nothing I can't handle. Now let's go, we still have work to do." I spoke, grabbing his hand and leading him to the door through blurry vision.

I bumped into the door and huffed, feeling around for the handle.

"(Y/N), that's a wall. The door is behind us." Yuri pointed out.

On normal days, he'd chuckle about how much of a dumbass I am, but today he seems really in-tune with my physical state.

"My vision is still blurry 'cause I'm tired." I spoke, coming up with that stupid excuse on spot.

"Here, let me help you." Yuri spoke, guiding me over to the bedroom door as he opened it, pushing me through before walking out and closing it behind him.

"I got the rest." I reassured, taking a few steps forward to go to the front door.

I stopped once I felt my stomach start to turn and my vision start to blur once more. My ears started ringing and it felt like I was swaying from side to side.

I took silent deep breaths to calm myself down and hopefully settle my immune system, all while Yuri stood behind me, closely observing me.

"Are you sick?" he finally questioned.

"No." I huffed stubbornly, gathering my energy to take another step.

It was a terrible idea as I immediately fell forward, my body going limp as I couldn't control my feet or hands or anything any longer. Even though I was unconscious, I felt pressure under my head and on my wrist. I saw darkness again and waited for it to pass, before finally regaining my vision once more.

Yuri had his hand under my head, checking my pulse before making eye contact with me as the waves of blurriness started to fade from my sight. He gave me a look I'd never think I'd get shot my way for fainting, he gave me a scowl.

"I'm not sick." He taunted in a high-pitched voice.

"Oi! I don't sound like that!" I huffed.

"You told me you weren't sick. You said you'd tell me if you were feeling off, you little lying brat." Yuri huffed, moving his hand from under my head and allowing it to hit the ground with a thud!

"Ow..." I groaned, reaching up and grabbing my head as my head ached, probably a headache forming. "Jerk! I didn't treat you like this when you got sick!"

"I didn't lie when I got sick!" Yuri retorted.

"Y-yeah... but..." I paused, thinking of something to say. "Just shut up and help me!" I huffed.

"You're lucky I'm a nice guy." Yuri muttered, grabbing my hand and picking me up, throwing me over his shoulder.

He opened our bedroom door and placed me back down on our bed, making sure to keep the covers off me. He walked up to his separate nightstand and picked up the phone, sliding the rotary wheel to his desired digits until he raised the phone up to his ear.

"Hello, Director? This is Yuri Briar speaking. Me and (Y/N) Briar are going to take the day off, she's terribly sick and I don't trust her to be by herself. We can reschedule the meeting another day?" Yuri spoke

"Oi! I hear you!" I huffed, throwing a pillow at him (albeit weakly).

"Yes, that was her. She sounds terrible, huh?" Yuri spoke, now just taunting me.

"You're a horrible man..." I grumbled.

"Yes, sir. Thank you so much." Yuri spoke before hanging up the phone. "Looks like you're going to get your shut-eye after all."

"Thanks, Yuri!" I smiled.

"Do you think you can stomach anything? Do you want some soup?" he questioned.

"Yeah, I guess." I sighed.

"I'll go make you some. Now, you change into some more lighter clothes so you won't be as hot, then you can go back to sleep." Yuri ordered.

It really wasn't something I'd fight him on as I nodded, taking the pajamas I was wearing earlier from Yuri's hands. Yuri left the room as I changed, then got back into bed. I closed my eyes (taking off my glasses if needed) and listening to Yuri's command on some shut-eye.

Yuri woke me up sometime later, gently shaking me awake.

"Hey, wake up." Yuri spoke, coaxing me to waking up.

I opened my eyes to see Yuri's face. He picked me up from the bed and took me out and into the dining room, sitting me down on my dining table seat. A bowl of simple broth sat in front of me, something simple that I wouldn't throw up.

"You can eat on your own, right?" Yuri questioned.

"Nope." I smiled.

"Of course..." Yuri grumbled.

He grabbed his chair and pulled it up close to me, our knees touching as he lifted my chin up and grabbed the spoon.

"You should keep your distance if you don't want to get sick." I spoke.

"Don't worry about it. The only time I get sick is when Yor is out of town." Yuri spoke.

Right, I remember having to take care of him when Yor left a few days for her job at city hall. He's surprisingly easy to take care of since he doesn't talk as much when he's sick due to his aching throat. I thought.

"Open up." Yuri commanded.

I didn't put up a fight as I opened my mouth, taking a sip from the spoon.

"It's pretty good, Yuri." I complimented, opening my mouth for another spoonful.

"I got the recipe from a cookbook." Yuri admitted, scooping up some more and putting it in my mouth.

I finished the bowl and thanked him as he picked me up and carried me back to our room, placing me down on the bed.

"I'll be back. You just hang on a second." Yuri spoke, walking out of the room.

He came back with a towel and some medication in hand.

"Do you like medicine?" Yuri questioned.

"No, who does?" I questioned, looking at him funny.

"I mean, will you put up a fight?" he questioned.

"...I mean, I guess not since it's for my health?" I muttered.

"Good." Yuri smiled, twisting open the cap and pouring the dark red liquid into a small medicine cup.

He raised the spoon to my mouth as I sighed and opened my mouth, drinking the liquid. It tasted disgusting and I hated every drop of it, but I understood it was for my health.

"Thank you for taking care of me, Yuri. You didn't have to take the day off too to take care of me, but you did anyways. I appreciate it greatly." I smiled.

"It's the decent thing to do." Yuri muttered, not taking the gratitude.

"Don't underestimate your kindness, Yuri. I was just messing with you when I said you're horrible." I admitted.

"I know that much, dummy." Yuri huffed, flicking my forehead with his finger.

He pushed my chest for me to lean back on my pillow, then grabbed the cold wet towel and placed it on top of my forehead.

"Now get some more rest, I'll come check up on you in a bit." Yuri spoke.

"Thanks again, Yuri. I love you." I smiled, watching as his face started to match his eyes as he covered his mouth with his arm to hide his smile.

"Whatever... I love you too." He muttered softly, but I could still hear him.

The whole day Yuri tended to my needs as I got my well-deserved rest. It's nice to finally be able to sleep all day again, the last time I did that was years ago.

I can't remember the last time I was cared for when being sick. Before the war when I was a kid, I remember being bedridden for three days and being unable to do nothing. My dad was out working and my mom was sleeping because she worked night shifts as a nurse (she was able to find a hospital that allowed married women to work there), so she slept during the day and went to work at night.

My younger siblings couldn't take care of me because they were too young to have any medical knowledge. My older sister was out collecting rocks and my older brother was out with his friends. Even if they weren't busy, they still wouldn't be able to help me since they've never gotten sick (or at least didn't remember it).

Even after joining the military and ending up getting the Spanish Flu I wasn't care for. It was actually a miracle I survived it because of my age and size. I must've found a lucky penny or something around that time because I luckily didn't have any severe symptoms, but after seeing all the people dying around me from the illness, I took absolutely no chances to being transported in the crowded nursing tent. I stole a small tent and ran far out into the woods along with a bottle of medicine, eight water bottles, four cans of tomato soup, and a blanket, spending five nights out there before I finally felt better.

Because I didn't allow myself around any others to worsen my sickness, my Memory T-cells were able to identify and grow an immunity to the disease and I was able to overcome it.

Even when I became a spy, the first few missions I got sick pretty often because of all the traveling and sight-changes I had to endure, but I soon grew accustomed to the constant change in scenery all around Westalis and Ostania that my immune system was eventually able to get used to it.

But even then, it's nice to be cared for and pampered. The last time I got fed by someone was when I was two. The last time someone tucked me in for bed was when I was three. I never did have someone make me soup for when I'm sick, or give me a wet towel to place on my head, or even just give me a bottle of medicine.

Even those the gestures might be small and "what a decent human being does" as Yuri said—it means the world to me. To be swaddled in the warmth of protection and love, something I was once sure I'd never be able to experience again until I met Yuri Briar.

The ring on my finger isn't just a ring; it's an everlasting vow between two lives now connected through life and death, sickness and health, wealth and poverty. It's a pledge of undying adoration, sincerity, unwavering loyalty, and shelter; all of this for Mr. and Mrs. Briar to share with one another.

BONUS: Headcannons about Yuri and (Y/N):

Yuri and (Y/N) have their own seats at the dining table they silently assigned to themselves. Yuri's seat is the closest to the front door, he chose this seat in case (Y/N) ever does try to run away to go back to WISE (in actuality, it's so he can protect her if an intruder ever breaks in from there).

Believe it or not, Yuri and (Y/N) aren't much of physical lovers. The love languages in their relationship is quality time, acts of service, and (shockingly) words of affirmation.

(Y/N) can't detect sarcasm despite being sarcastic herself at times.

(Y/N) used sleeping as a coping mechanism growing up. She used it to escape from reality; the hardships of money and war, deception and betrayal. She slept so much she learned how to lucid dream on her own. Now she sleeps because she's tired often due to work.

(Y/N)'s always tired no matter how much sleep she gets; 30 minutes to a day. She once slept for 22 hours once and woke up feeling miserable. She slept for twenty minutes while waiting for a target during a mission and still felt like total shit; so no amount of sleep can truly make her feel 100% awake.

(Y/N) has problems with memorizing people and their names so she focuses on a certain attribute that helps her recognize a person (ex. someone's hair color, the shape of their eyes, their jacket).

(Y/N)'s memory isn't good either, she'll be in the act of cooking then forget she's cooking and walk away. Yuri now supervises (Y/N) to make sure she doesn't wander off and let the smoke alarm go off again.

If (Y/N) had the option to go to the past, future, or stay in the present, she would choose staying in the present in a heartbeat. She believes if she goes to the past she might mess something up that would make it so Yuri and (Y/N) never met, and she doesn't want to go to the future in case she discovers something then accidentally messes up the future by going to the present and changes actions that would've led her to something happy in the future to something disastrous instead.

Yuri's side mission in life is to try to discreetly find out (Y/N)'s favorite flower without being caught. He wants to surprise her but refuses to ask her for the answer. So far it's been a month of trying.

(Y/N) has absolutely no idea when she's being flirted with by someone other than Yuri because she doesn't believe it's possible that someone could actually have interest in her (she still secretly questions if Yuri's proposal was true or if it was a gig to gain trust for their contract).

Yuri has memorized every speckle of color in (Y/N)'s eyes because of how often he stares into them. He is a firm believer of giving someone his attention when they're talking with him.

Yuri does, indeed, like to mess with (Y/N) because he thinks it's cute when she gets frustrated.

When (Y/N) gave Yuri's mother brownies as an offering he cried in his car the entire time that (Y/N) talked to Yuri's mother. That day was the day Yuri started to lower his guard without even realizing it.

Even though Yuri and (Y/N) bicker a lot, they're very aware of their true feelings since they always look at each other's eyes when talking (the eye is the window to the soul after all).

It's a known fact that Yuri and (Y/N) always work with each other at the SSS. They help each other with listening to bugged rooms, Yuri listens and (Y/N) writes. Whenever they do interrogations, they're always in the room with each other in case one of the interrogators decide to get hostile. During raids, (Y/N) prefers to be lookout while Yuri heads into action. Even though (Y/N) doesn't like Yuri fighting with the possibility of getting injured or possibly even killed, (Y/N) doesn't like fighting up close due to the hostility she experienced in the military (the same applies with guns due to this).

Yuri learned about (Y/N)'s dislikes towards guns and does his best to get them both out of raids or missions that involve them. He doesn't want to have her forced into a situation that makes her uncomfortable or feel threatened.

Yuri and (Y/N) have come to the comprise that Yuri cleans and (Y/N) cooks after Yuri complained a lot about (Y/N) doing all the housework. Yuri doesn't like the thought of using (Y/N) like that, even if they live in the 1950's.

As previously mentioned in this fic, (Y/N) got the Spanish Flu. She got the Spanish Flu by walking into the nursing tent to bring a sick comrade in. While she was in there, she saw someone have a terrible reaction to the vaccine they were given, foaming through their mouth and blood pouring out of their eyes and nose, that started her intense fear of needles (want to know how Yuri helps? Check out this fanfic along with the head cannons in it!)

Yuri and (Y/N) like watching sci-fi movies and debating whether the events could one day be true or not. These debates get very heated, logical, and serious; some are still ongoing to this day.

Yuri's ([Y/N]'s really) teddy bear (teddy bear is introduced in the Yuri Briar x Fem! Spy! Reader series, part 9) is named Graham Cracker because of the fur's color (Yes, [Y/N] named it).

(Y/N) once had a dream of being an astronaut because she loved the stars so much. Now, she's not exactly sure what she wants to be career-wise, but she wants to be truly happy and have an ordinary life (which means ditching the SSS and WISE).

Yuri once took (Y/N) out on a roadtrip to go to a space museum out of Ostania. In the middle of the night he stopped the car on a hill and prompted (Y/N) out of the car and pointed up at the stars. Yuri's mind has the image of her stargazing engraved in his mind. (Y/N) had never seen as much stars as she did then and she started crying hysterically because it was the most considerate and romantic thing anyone had ever done for her. Yuri now takes (Y/N) out to see the stars at the same hill at least once a month.

Sometimes Yuri goes on complete rambles about Yor, specific adventures he had during missions, some biology facts he remembers from school, or even just Ostanian politics and (Y/N) would look at him with the world's brightest eyes and soft smile. Once he notices, his voice becomes softer and he stumbles over his wording a lot. (Y/N) will bring him back to with a soft "go on, love" despite hearing this subject hundreds of times before, and it'll officially explode Yuri's mind and heart.

(Y/N) got Yuri into Frank Sinatra and Doris Day songs. Yuri's mood could be terrible but if he hears any one of their songs he'll immediately start cheering up because of the memories their songs bring. His favorite is "Fly Me to the Moon" from Frank Sinatra and "It's Magic" from Doris Day. (Y/N)'s favorites are "Blue Moon" from Frank Sinatra and "Dream a Little Dream of Me" from Doris Day.

(Y/N) absolutely loves Christmas music. She loves decorating the apartment with festive lights and baking holiday foods. Yuri used to be indifferent about the holidays but now he can't wait for the next Christmas because of the first Christmas they spent with each other and the Forger family.

(Y/N) was given the code name "Vixen" because of how she lured and deceived others. She stuck to using her looks as a form of deception since she had a hard time switching personalities due to her morals and how opinionated she is.

(Y/N) hates receives gifts because it feels like she's indirectly using someone for money, being too needy, and now has a debt she needs to pay.

(Y/N) and Yor meet up every weekend after work to talk about work, their family, and get to know each other better since they're in-laws. (Y/N) still finds Yor scary, but now she's determined to protect Yuri because of how kind-hearted and nurturing she is. (Y/N) makes sure to walk Yor home so Yor doesn't get into any danger (unbeknownst to [Y/N], Yor is the true danger).

(Y/N) meets up with Camila and Yor once a month to teach Yor a new recipe. It's a really good bonding experience and it gives (Y/N) a healthy amount of social interaction without having to try and lie to anyone for ulterior motives. (Y/N) loves being able to call therm her friends since growing up she didn’t have any (that are still alive, that is. Twilight and Franky are like brothers).

Thank you so much for requesting! I love writing for Yuri, especially because of how dry the Yuri train is on Tumblr.
