NEET-UG 2024 Verdict: Supreme Court to Announce Detailed Judgment on Exam Cancellation Plea Today
Supreme Court of India is set to release its detailed judgment on Friday, explaining its decision not to cancel the NEET-UG 2024 examination.
New Delhi: The Supreme Court of India will release its detailed judgment on Friday, explaining its decision not to cancel the NEET-UG 2024 examination. This follows the court's rejection of a plea for a re-test on July 23. Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud emphasized the significant repercussions of conducting a fresh exam, noting that it would impact over 24 lakh students who had already taken the test. He highlighted that such a move would disrupt the admission schedule and cause cascading effects on the medical entrance exam and its subsequent counselling process.
Click here to read what the Supreme Court ordered.
Meanwhile, the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) has intensified its probe into alleged irregularities surrounding the NEET-UG 2024 examination. On Thursday, the CBI filed its first chargesheet, charging 13 individuals under various sections of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) including sections 120-B (criminal conspiracy), 201 (causing disappearance of evidence), 409 (criminal breach of trust by public servant), 380 (theft in dwelling house), 411 (dishonestly receiving stolen property), 420 (cheating), and 109 (abetment).
Names Of NEET Paper Leak Accused The chargesheet names the following accused: Nitish Kumar, Amit Anand, Sikander Yadvendu, Ashutosh Kumar-1, Roshan Kumar, Manish Prakash, Ashutosh Kumar-2, Akhilesh Kumar, Avdesh Kumar, Anurag Yadav, Abhishek Kumar, Shivnandan Kumar, and Ayush Raj. The case was initially registered at Shastri Nagar Police Station in Patna and later transferred to the CBI on June 23. To date, the CBI has arrested 40 individuals, including 15 apprehended by Bihar Police, and conducted searches at 58 locations.
Last week, the CBI revealed in an official statement that the NEET-UG 2024 question paper was illicitly accessed from the Oasis School in Hazaribagh on the morning of May 5. The key figure behind this act was identified as Pankaj Kumar, also known as Aditya or Sahil, one of the masterminds in the case. The theft was reportedly carried out with the connivance of the Hazaribagh NTA City Coordinator cum Principal of Oasis School and the Centre Superintendent cum Vice Principal of the same institution.
The investigation is ongoing, with several other suspects already in police or judicial custody. The CBI has stated that supplementary chargesheets will be filed as further investigation into these suspects and other aspects of the case progresses.

Sarkarijobfinder: Sarkari Results, Govt Jobs, Admit Cards
India has witnessed a persistent demand for government jobs over several decades. The wide array of benefits associated with these positions makes them a preferred career choice for many. âSarkari Naukriâ (Government job) is a cherished aspiration for millions of individuals nationwide, but only a fortunate few manage to secure such positions. Owning a Sarkari or Government job instills a sense of pride among people.
Government jobs possess a level of authority that is often absent in private sector employment. They offer unparalleled job security, attracting a significant number of young individuals. However, acquiring a government job entails successfully navigating multiple stages of testing, including written examinations, interviews, and occasionally physical evaluations. These exams are highly competitive, with millions of aspirants vying for the chance to obtain a coveted government position.

ŕźť pound town
arcane sevika x female reader (nsfw)
a/n: i'm going to war (exam phase is about to start), therefore i must make haste (my hiatus starts again). also, i got a new job so i'm not sure when my hiatus will end :(
pt. 1 ; masterlist
grabbing the broom from the back of your mechanics shop, you start you usual closing routine as the streets of Zaun more active as the day ends. growing up in Zaun, you appreciate the livelihood of the people, but grew wary of the criminality rising abruptly at the end of each day. enforcers started to patrol the quiet streets of Zaun and hang up missing posters of Jinx, who you've been visited by for several occasions over the last few months for tech equipment she required. you grew fond of the girl and would occasionally even slip a few extra pieces, and she would thank you proudly by telling you about her latest new technological improvements.
one time, she told you about a prosthesis as her newest invention. Sevika immediately came to your mind and the way she held your cheek the last and first time you saw her. or the way her bionic arm held your hips so strongly as you rode her strap. shit, you really are down bad for this woman who doesn't even know your name.
as several months gone by since then, you managed to gather your savings and invest it into your shop for new techs and products to sell. you were finally able to call your shop your full time job and scrap your shifts at the brothel completely. Sevika didn't only save your shop, but she saved you from drowning in exhaustion as the only thing you ever did was work day and night.
you hoped to see her again, but your hope was slowly scarped as each month passed by.
after sweeping the last corner of your shop, you only had to rearrange your products before you could finally leave to go home. as you tidied the screws collection, the door to your shop opened audibly by your crystals dangling from the person entering.
"we're closed-" you start, but stop as you see the person at the entrance.
there she was, standing in her usual cloak and a hood that hid her face, but you recognised her nonetheless. she took her hood off with a smile as she looked at you. "good to see you again."
suddenly, you felt naked again. although she knew your identity (prolly even the whole time), the mask would hide your facial expressions and reactions. now, you are standing there with a shocked impression written on your face, unsure of how to react to the person that is the reason for your shop to still be alive.
"i see you created something out of this shop since the last time I've seen you," she speaks with a soft smile on her lips as she takes a look around in your shop. "thank you. you were actually a huge help last time we've seen each other," you respond, your hands linked together behind your back as you turn to look around your shop.
honestly, your shop is quite shady from outside with its half-broken broken neon sign spelling the name mechs n' treasures. but once you enter, you quickly realise that it's a one man's business by it's intricate appearance. it has so much personality now that you have as much time as you'd like to spent in it, decorating it with your favourite things you've collected over the years that weren't too precious to be displayed in your small flat above your shop. a few colourful crystals dangle around your entrance and the door to your flat, reflecting the neon lights from the streets of Zaun onto the mechanic pieces you sell. tidiness is your top priority, since it's hard to keep such an old shop neat and clean. you love your old and shady, but precious personal shop and wouldn't wish it to be any different. business seemed to be booming recently, too. you had no idea why, but Zaun is a quick and fast learning city with its advantages and disadvantages, resulting in people visiting your shop to buy the pieces they require for their newest project.
now, Sevika is standing in the centre of your shop, taking one of the mechanical pieces into her hands and looking at it in detail.
"can i help you with something?" you ask, looking at her with curiosity. after she puts the mechanic piece back into its tray, she says "I was hoping you could me out with this."
she reveals her bionic arm, where you see the its shimmer capsules completely shattered. surprised, you walk towards her and take her bionic arm into her hand to have a closer look. you inhale her smoky scent and suddenly were confronted with a vivid memory of the first night you guys met at the brothel, as you sat in her lap writhing under her touch. focus. you twisted a few pieces to inspect the reachability of the broken capsules. "I assume you won't be able to take it off?" you ask her, your eyes still fixed on an odd piece you've found.
she shakes her head, "it would be a hazard trying to put it on afterwards. do you think you'll still manage to repair, though?"
after twisting the last few pieces for inspection, you leave her arm. "shouldn't be no issue," you take a look at your wristwatch and notice how late it already is. a few extra minutes won't hurt, you decide.
you nod towards the counter, "take a seat, i'll be right with you."
entering the back of your shop and take a big breath. fuck, this intimidating woman still effects you after several months. at this point, you were sure you even forgot about her.
you grab your toolbox and head to Sevika, who is waiting for you behind your counter on a chair. her cloak is thrown over your register's desk, revealing a similar outfit you saw at the brothel. only now you realise how muscular this woman actually is. her arm is almost fully exposed by her sleeveless top and a choker around her neck makes you shake off your dirty thoughts.
you place the toolbox on the counter before you take a seat next to it. Sevika watches every move of yours, making you even more nervous than you already are.
grabbing your first tool, you lay her arm in you lap and start unscrewing the plates that cover the isolation of the shimmer capsules. her arm felt heavy, but oddly warm in your lap for the fact that it's broken. you remember how the same arm pinned you down on her strap a few months ago.
your brain is almost about to malfunction if Sevika wouldn't have interrupted your thoughts, "so, how is your shop going?" she asks as she leans the side of her upper body on the counter. when you look down at her, she's only mere centimetres away from your face. her grey eyes digging into yours. your pussy clenches as your breathing stops at the sight of her. you quickly look away and focus on her arm again. "it's going well," you start and grab for another tool to remove the shattered pipes. "sometimes it's exhausting to handle a shop alone, but you get used to it, you know."
her eyes follow your movements on her arm while she hums as an indication for you to continue. "once, a dude i recognised from the brothel came to pick up a few things and i couldn't help but wonder what his day job is. he was a sex worker as well, so he probably even recognised me," you tell her. it's unusual for you to share thoughts and memories of your old job. you weren't ashamed of it, but you much happier spending your time in your own shop and not thinking back to your old routine.
she shifts in her seat to look up at you, "i'm glad you were able to escape that shit hole, beautiful," she says quietly, careful of the words she chooses, "do you still remember that night?"
your movements halt immediately at her questions and you felt her eyes laying heavily on you, watching every single movement. the way you took a deep breath, trying not to appear nervous around her. the mere thought of that night made you feel butterflies in your stomach and wetness in your core.
"i do," you confess. without meeting her eyes, you continue your maintenance on her bionic arm in your lap, trying to suppress the urge of jumping into her lap and kissing her senseless. "do you?" you ask in almost a whisper, unsure if you even wanted to know the answer.
when she didn't, your eyes travelled to hers in question. she seemed to be in deep thoughts as well before she asked "how couldn't i?"
her eyes finally meet yours and you recognise such sincerity and trust in them, you couldn't help the soft smile that sneaks onto your lips.
"you were the only thing on my mind in this cruel world," she continues, making you feel several things at once. "and i don't even know your name."
you chuckled and referred your eyes back to your almost finished work, concentrating on exchanging the pipes.
"so, you're not even going to tell me?" she asks amused.
"what, my name?" you act oblivious, knowing exactly what she wanted. now it was her turn to chuckle at your teasing. "you can be a pain in the ass, you know that?"
you shake your head in disbelief with a smile on your lips as you screw on the last iron plate on her arm.
"move it," you command and she obliges. she moves her joints, making the shimmer that was left in her tank fuel her new pipe, while moving it a few more times in several directions. you've never seen machinery working with shimmer so closely. you wonder how the metal felt like against your skin.
ripping you out of your trance, she stands up. right in front you, almost between your legs, which you desperately wanted to close at the sight as you felt your pussy clench.
"thank you," she looks at you, her eyes wandering from your neck down to the rest of your body. it's like she can't help herself, checking you out as you sit on her cloak next to your work instruments.
"you even look beautiful in your casual attire," she whispers as her eyes meet yours again.
"so," you wrap your index finger through her choker, "how about taking it off and see what's hidden underneath?" you cock your head before you pull her closer. your legs are opened by her thighs between them as she looks down at you, clearly surprised by your boldness. "i don't fuck nameless girls," she says in an equal tone to her low chuckle.
you take a quick look at her lips, wondering what they would feel like on yours. "didn't seem so last time we've seen each other."
your finger is still wrapped around her chocker as you grin. she didn't answer. she knows you're messing with her.
she places her arms on each of your sides, the sounds of her bionic arm moving leaving a shudder throughout your body. she's dangerously close.
"if i remember correctly, last time you've fucked yourself, princess."
shocked by her comment, your grin fades as you suddenly remember how you rode her in that brothel, eagerly chasing your orgasm as she guided you through it.
you let go of her choker and rest your hand at the back of her neck instead, caressing the soft strands of brunette hair as you try to maintain yourself.
"y/n," you whisper. Sevika's eyes widen at first, but a slight grin sets on her lips at the sound of your name.
"beautiful name, princess," she whispers back and you feel her breath on your lips with each sound she speaks.
you close your eyes as you feel her full lips grazing yours. "y/n," she whispers repeatedly. her lips finally touch yours, first cautiously but confident after a few seconds of lingering. you copy her motions and gasp when her tongue grazes your lower lip.
pressing her more firmly against yourself, you part your lips for her tongue to enter. she faintly tastes like cigarettes, but more of a harsh liquor you can't really pinpoint. your arms cling desperately around her neck, feeling her torso pressed around yours in your heated kiss. you lock her against your core with your legs around her hips, moaning as she leaves your lips to leave kisses on your neck. "you have no idea how often i thought of kissing you," she whispers before she trails down kisses to your exposed shoulder and collarbone, licking the line of it and pressing soft bites against your sweet spots.
instead of responding, you pull her up again and lock your lips together. you press your lower body against her in search of the friction you desperately seek, but with no success. her lips form into a smirk against your lips as she realises what you're seeking.
frustrated, you separate yourself from her and motion for her to step aside, so you could jump of the counter. "i have a bed upstairs," you tell her. Sevika stands there confused, but god does she look hot. her lips are glazed from your spit and her hair looks slightly tousled from your hand that clung to it.
she doesn't let you move, though. instead, her hands are pressed firmly on your side as she still stand between your legs. "i thought that might be more comfortable..." you say, unsure of the current situation. she shifts in her stance to let you stand up.
"fuck, yes. i mean, yes, let's go upstairs," she chuckles after stumbling over her own words and her bionic arm moves to gesture you to lead the way. you laugh at her sudden awkwardness but go ahead to lock up your shop.
walking up the stairs, you fumble for your home's keys. Sevika followed you closely behind, touching your waist and kissing your neck as you try to unlock the door, a sigh escapes your lips as you try to unlock your door.
as the door closes behind you, she pins you against it. her hand holds your wrist against the door as she kisses you feverishly. her bionic arm slips beneath your ass to lift you up, so you could wrap your legs around her hips. you press your breasts against her, trying to seek for any further touches. "the bed, Sev," you say between kisses, too occupied to actually resist her touch.
she ignores your words and losses her grip on your wrists instead to wander to the buttons of your shirt, never breaking the kiss. "patience, beautiful," she whispers as her lips leave yours to press a kiss on your cheek. "we have all night, right?"
your arms find their way back around her neck, playing with her loose hair. "please," you respond, your eyes making contact with hers. you peck her lips before you say, "i want to touch you, too."
her head falls onto your shoulder as she groans, "you make me loose my composure so easily," before looking back into your eyes with need and desperation "do you realise that?"
you grin at her confession and kiss her hot and wet, moaning into the kiss as she continues to unbutton your shirt until your bra is exposed to her hand. she grazes the outlines with her fingertips, making a shudder run through your body as you gasp. you press your chest into her touch and she gladly responds with cupping your breast while biting your lower lip.
her index finger grazes your puffy nipple through your bra and you can't help the moan that escapes your lips.
she pecks you one last time with a smile, before looking around your small flat, seemingly inspecting your small setup where your bedroom and living room are combined to your cozy grove.
her hand moves to your back, stabilising you in her arms before she finally heads to your bed to lay you down on it, watching you as you lay there with your undone shirt and the few strands that escaped your hairstyle completely wordless.
similar to her, you exhale at the sight in front of you. Sevika is still fully clothed, so you pull her down by her collar to kiss her hard, wrapping your legs around her waist to pull her body on top of you. "take this off," she whispers against your lips, her bionic hand gripping your shirt as her hand sneaks behind your neck to tilt your head for her to suck.
she kisses and bites your sweet spot, disrupting your motion of pulling your shirt off and making your eyes roll back in pleasure. you moan her name in frustration before she finally let's go.
"this too," she tells you as she eyes every little detail on your torso. when you take your bra off, her bionic hand cups your breast. the sharp and cold details of her metallic hand exposed on one of your most sensitive parts of your body leave you breathing hard, moaning as her pointy fingers pinch and twist your nipple. "you have no idea how often i thought of touching them since that night," her eyes are not leaving your chest as she confesses.
"you could've touched them that night," you respond, your hand finding the back of her head as you play with her small ponytail. after hearing your words she looks at you, almost with a shocked expression on her face. "there's no way i would have touched you without your consent," she tells you. surprised by this sudden turn, you move up to rest your weight on your elbows, looking at her in disbelief. "but you payed for that night with me," you state, still confused by what she just said.
she's just as surprised as you, cupping your cheek softly as she spoke, "y/n, i would never do anything to you without your consent. do you know that?" she asks you, her eyes never leaving yours as she spoke. you've never experienced any sex partner expressing their respect to you verbally. and fuck, this is probably the moment you realise you have feelings for this woman in front of you. you nod in response, still overwhelmed from your thoughts and feelings. she smiles at you as she says, "good girl."
your soaking pussy almost purred at that nickname. kissing her quick but softly, you grind your clothed hips against hers as you kiss a trail down her neck to her exposed collarbone.
she exhales heavily at your motions before saying, "tell me what you want, beautiful."
"i want you to fuck me," you respond after hesitating, still nibbling at her collarbone as a soft moan escapes her.
"with this," you continue as you grind stronger onto her clothed cunt than before.
her bionic arm holds herself on the bed as her fingers trace your curves. "with my fingers?" she teases as she opens your trousers with her other hand slowly.
your lips move up to her ear, licking and biting her soft skin. "no," you whisper, "with this."
you press the seam of her jeans with your fingers against her clit, making her grip your hips hard from your sudden touch. "fuck," she mutters in response, clearly trying to compose herself before she continues to fully undress you.
"under one condition," she starts as she takes in your naked body with hungry eyes, "i'll have a taste before i fuck you," she unbuttons her shirt, revealing a dark bandeau bra beneath. she's in a hurry, so she won't bother to take off her unbuttoned shirt, but moves on by removing her jeans as well as underwear in one go.
you try to take a peek at her body, but she immediately kneels between your legs to kiss the soft skin of your thighs, dragging her motions slowly to your soaking pussy as her hands hold you firm beneath her touch. feeling her breath on your clit, you whine from sensitivity, gripping the sheets beneath you as she finally tastes you for the first time.
both of you moan from the touch, your hips stutter beneath her strong hands. she eats you out like a starving woman, humming at the sounds you're making. your clit is circled by her tongue as she softly bites and sucks before your legs start shaking from the pleasure that builds up in your lower belly.
she moves her arm from your thigh to press softly against it, realising how close you are. "come on my tongue," she tells you, intensifying her motions as you come hard. the way you moan her name sounds similar to a scream, your thighs pressing against her head as you throw your head back in pleasure.
she gently guides you through it by licking in decreasing motions, careful of your sensitivity. as your calming down, she kisses your clit one last time before she straightens herself to watch you after your first high.
her lips and chin are glistening from her pussy and strands that were originally framing her face now hang loosely. "you did so well, beautiful," she whispers, climbing on top of you to press kisses into your face. "fuck, you really sent me to another dimension," you confess, laughing a litte at the absurdity. she chuckles at your words, grinning as she examines your face.
"are you still down for another round?" she asks carefully, giving you the space you might need, but you nod as you smile at her. she kisses you before she straightens again to manhandle your legs, placing one on her shoulder as she moves her own over your other to align with your pussy, not starting just yet. she caresses the long on her shoulder as she presses kisses along with it.
she looks absolutely breathtaking while doing it. you feel her pussy kissing yours, and fuck, she's driving you crazy. the unbuttoned shirt exposes the abs you eyed earlier through the tightness of her shirt. her v-line is deeply defined, even more when she starts to slowly grind against you. her pointy bionic fingers suddenly press into your thigh as she gasps from the pleasure she suddenly receives. her grey eyes watch you heavily, making sure you're alright with her pace as she slowly picks it up.
"you feel so good," you whimper as you meet her motions by copying hers, crying from the sensitivity from your earlier orgasm. "fuck- i'm close again."
she grins at your confession, pushing herself harder on your clit as you cry out from the friction. she's mostly quiet, but a gasp escapes her lips anytime you improve your speed.
"come with me, y/n" she leans down, kissing you with so much passion as her eyebrows furrow in pleasure. you moan into the kiss, your breasts moving with each thrust as your nipples graze against the cotton of her bandeau. you felt your orgasm creeping, but you weren't ready for the intensity it comes with. you cry out against her lips, holding her against you as you feel her groaning from her own orgasm. both your hips stutter in your motions before you stop to look at her.
her head rests in the nape of your neck and the only thing you feel is her hot breath against your skin. as you untangle your legs, you kiss on the side of her head. "are you alright?" you ask after several seconds of silence.
she vaguely nods, still maintaining her breath before she answers "you have no idea what you're doing to me."
you smile as you caress her hair through your fingers. "i'd love to figure it out in the future," you continue, making space between your faces so you could look at her as you speak. "this idea you've just mentioned," you clarify as she looks at you speechless.
she kisses you passionately after a few seconds, smiling as she realises what you were suggesting.
"let me take you to dinner after your shift tomorrow?" she asks as her thumb trails your cheekbone. you nod, kissing her on the cheeks before you answer "gladly."
you both fall asleep, and sooner or later date nights with Sevika become your favourite traditions as you two engage in a passionate, but intimate relationship with each other.

â the prodigy
sfw | tags : male!yandere student x gn! reader (only prn used for reader is âyouâ), obsessive behavior and thoughts, bullying, slight classism, gaslighting? i think
surprise! i came up w the idea of this guy like,,, two days ago and had to get him out my system đ i feel like all my yandere ocs are too nice (save for althea) so heres one thats an asshole. enjoy! reblog to support me :]
sterling cygnus has it all.
good looks, a wealthy family, and a place in one of the most prestigious private colleges that one could go to. aptly dubbed the âprince of iceâ by his classmates thanks to his cold demeanor and disdain for interpersonal connections, the young man had one goal in his mind since he started attending school.
to be the best!
sterling dedicated himself to his studies. nothing was more important to him than ensuring he got the top scores on every exam he took, sealing his place as number one in the academic field by any means necessary. no one dared to breach that. and anyone who even tried received his ire.
no one was going to stand up to him â why would they? theyâd hate to end up like the poor guy whoâs dorm was raided after he surpassed him. or the girl who did the same, resulting in her being forced to drop out after her fatherâs suspiciously sudden arrest left her unable to pay tuition fees. but of course, there was no real proof that sterling had caused both incidents. it was just a coincidence! right?
well⌠the day you came onto his radar was a day that left the entire student body tense.
everyone had gathered around the bulletin board where the latest exam results were posted. there were gasps of shock, murmurs, and even a small ripple of laughs floating through the otherwise quiet crowd. it was unusual. and when sterling had pushed his way to the front to gaze upon the list of student names with their scores beside them⌠he understood. and in an instant, he was furious.
he was in second place. and above his name, with a pretty 100% score next to it, was yours.
who the fuck did you think you were? coming to his school, earning the grade that he worked so hard to receive, and daring to take his place as number one?
sterling knew in an instant that you had to be a new student. he had all of the names of those who ranked just under him memorized, and yours wasnât one of them. were you a transfer? a latecomer? he had no clue what the circumstances behind your sudden arrival was, and honestly? he didnât care. you had taken his place, after he had worked so hard to get there. after he had been there for so long. you had taken his place. and he knew for a fact you didnât deserve it.
but just as he resolved to figure you out so he could plan his revenge?
there you were. passing through the the slowly dispersing crowd to look at the leaderboard, your eyes locking with the name â your name â at the very top of it.
when sterling first saw you, he couldnât even begin to understand the feeling that had suddenly flooded his senses. it was so strange⌠and why did the world suddenly feel a lot slower? why could he only notice you and him in the hallway? why did his heart skip in his chest when you glanced at him and your eyes locked?
if you had tried to say something to him, sterling didnât even notice. he had hurried off before you could even speak.
he was sure he despised you after that point. he had to have, he told himself. the way his mind always drifted back to you when he was trying to study, angrily clicking his pen and gritting his teeth as he thought about your stupid hair and your dumb, adorable eyes, the way your uniform looked better on you than anyone else in the college â he didnât even realize he was thinking about you so much until he snapped out of them and noticed how much time had passed.
he hated you. he had to. you had taken what was rightfully his, probably with dumb luck or cheating, and now you were invading his thoughts in such a way? was there nothing you wouldnât take from him?
he was colder to you than anyone else. he had to be â you needed to learn your place around him. heâd ignore you in the halls and during class, and when youâd innocently ask him for his input on something, youâd be met with a sneer and a condescending retort.
âi donât fraternize with people like you. donât bother me.â
despite this, heâd always wander around near wherever you went. going to the library at the same time as you so he could snatch whatever book you had planned to check out away from you and take it for himself, making sure to go to the cafeteria just before you arrived so he could take what he knew was your favorite snacks, and heâd always be at the dorms before you â trying so hard to not stare at you when you passed by in your pajamas, fresh out of the showers.
your stupid body wash smelled so good⌠he couldnât help himself when he snuck back to the locker room after hours to snag it for himself.
weeks after your arrival and sudden climb to the top, everyone was confused to see you were still attending the school. sterling wouldâve taken out anyone else by then, what was so different about you?
but no one would ask, obviously. nor would anyone come to your aid when all of your pencils and pens were all mysteriously snapped in half one day. or when youâd find your notes torn into pieces and haphazardly stuffed back into your bag. and when you tried to alert staff about your dorm roomâs door being ajar for some reason, they brushed you off even though you knew for a fact someone had gone through your things (ânothing importantâs gone? no bother pursuing the matter, thenâ).
with how much disdain and contempt he seemed to hold for you, it was so strange that sterling didnât like the idea of no longer catching daily glimpses of you. or having access to your things.
so even though sterling went out of his way to make your school life nearly unbearable as revenge for coming along and doing just that to him first, he didnât make the move to actually have you removed from the school and opted to torment you instead.
you deserved it, he told himself. far more than anyone who came before you.
heâd show you what happens when you bother sterling cygnus.

Hi, I was re-reading the AEIWAM tag and was wondering how exactly Aizen manages to kill Genkai? She seems one of the most put-together Kenpachi's and Aizen is well Aizen? Did he do it himself or were the curse nails involved?
Kenpachi Genkai has a Lieutenant named Gosuke Kiganjo.
She's fond of Gosuke. He's a quick-witted man with a delightfully jaded opinion of humanity, in contrast to young wife Kakiyo, who has such a resolute sense of Justice she can sometimes make the elderly captain almost believe in the inherent goodness of humanity again. They make a splendid couple, her willingness to do the hard work of improving lives pairs well with his pragmatism and sense of efficiency.
Genkai enjoys their company- it's a terrible thing to be Old, but worse to be Old and Lonely, so she allows them to have her over. She and Kakiyo debate the practicality of the young woman's latest scheme to improve life in the Rukongai while Gosuke cooks. Genkai is sure Yamamoto's decision to transfer Kakiyo as a seated officer in the 4th to lieutenant of the 5th Division under Captain Hirako is not just balancing Shinji's tendency to procrastinate on his work and take inadvisable shortcuts. Yamamoto plans to have her run the 5th someday, and Genkai agrees with the choice.
Oftentimes Kakiyo and Gosuke's friend Sosuke Aizen is there too. He's an agreeable young man, if somewhat forgettable. He has a good memory though, and generous- he always brings fresh produce for Gosuke to make dinner with, and always remembers Genkai's fondness for Garlic Greens.
(continued under the cut)
Gosuke missed his calling as a housewife, Genkai thinks, with no small appreciation of the work that goes into running a house. But he is a splendid cook, and she enjoys many dinners with the couple and their friends.
But she is old. She feels it in her heart- not emotionally, she's not sentimental, but she feels it in the way her heart skips and thuds and the sharp pains in her chest. "Cardiac Arrhythmia" Unohana says. Her heart is failing, falling out of sync, and someday, she'll have a massive heart attack if she's not killed in the traditional way Kenpachis are.
Unohana offers her treatment- Foxglove, deadly to eat a leaf, but diluted into Digitoxin pills, it steadies her heart a bit. She takes the pills with some reluctance- when she remembers to. The duties of a captain are many and more complex than ever, and again, she allows Gosuke to do her a favor- He remembers her medication schedule, and puts the pills next to every meal he cooks for her- almost all of them these days.
...But eventually, the inevitable happens, and three months after her diagnosis, Ninth Kenpachi Genkai dies of a massive heart attack in her sleep after dinner at Gosuke and Kakiyo's home.
When Retsu Unohana does her autopsy of Genkai, something seems amiss- the damage to Genkai's heart is much more advanced than Unohana had expected from her exam less than twelve weeks ago. She should have known- Genkai wouldn't splint broken bones half the time, preferring to rely on her body to heal, and underestimating what she was borrowing from the future.
Unohana rules her Cause Of Death as "Heart Failure", and can only assume that Genkai had not benefited from what little of the Digitoxin she managed to take.
---
A week later, Kiganjo is promoted to Captain of the 11th, and according with tradition, forgoes his given name to assume the Title and mantle of the office.
Now-Kenpachi Kiganjo is somewhat overwhelmed by his new duties, as well as wracked with grief. He cannot bear to clean out his beloved Captain's quarters. Kakiyo grieves differently- the physical work and care she can give to the former captain's belongings will ease the emotional pain, so she offers to clean out the captain's quarters for him.
She is still friends with her colleagues in the fourth, especially Unohana, and as a Lieutenant she's entitled to see the results of the Autopsy. Its puzzling, Unohana's statement that she must not have taken her medication- she watched Gos- her husband put her pills on the tray of every meal he cooked for her in the last twelve weeks. Was she just throwing them away?
It's even more confusing when the clean-out fails to turn up a single pill. She should have found some in the trash or swept under the furniture, right? Maybe it had all been taken out.
That night, she's home alone. Go- her husband is working late while he catches up on the job. She opens the pantry and glares at it- part of the reason she married him was that he was such a good cook. She never got the hang of it, that was always Kaname's chore growing up. Ugh. It's been a long and emotional day and she's got a headache-
She opens the medicine cabinet in search of the aspirin, and is confronted with the Perscription Bottle of Digitoxin. That must be where he was storing it while he cooked for Genkai. Best remove it before he gets back and is reminded- she thinks as she picks the bottle up.
It's full. In fact. It's completely unopened. ...And the pills look nothing like the ones G- Her Husband had been putting on Genkai's tray.
She stands there. Trying to make sense of it. Was this a second bottle? Prescriptions came in three-month supplies, maybe he had just finished out the first bottle when she died, and this would have been her next bottle of medication? She goes to check the date-
"Anyone home?" 5th Division third seat Aizen calls out.
"MOTHER FUCK- I'm sorry, I'm so sorry Aizen- You startled me and it's- it's- Oh God, I miss her so much!" Kakiyo sobs, and Aizen appears at her side, a comforting shoulder to cry on.
He escorts her to the living room and lets her sob while he gets the kitchen in order and cooks- He used to be a confectioner before he was a Shinigami and he makes a good fried rice too. He tells her stories about the candy business and childhood chicanery he got up to with his brother back in West 43 until-
-She almost doesn't recognize the man as her husband at first. Something is wrong with his posture, stooped and sluggish, and grimacing where there should be a grin. But the tenth Kenpachi comes and embraces his wife, and- it's alright. He's still her husband, and she lets him carry her to bed.
When she wakes up late the next morning, she stumbles into the bathroom and squints at the counter- There was something in here she needed to ask her husband about- Something about? Ugh. She can't remember. She feels hungover, and whatever it was is gone now.
---
On his way back to the 5th, Sosuke Aizen stops on the bridge over the canal, looks around to make sure he is alone, and dumps the bottle of digitoxin pills into the canal. He tears off the label from the bottle, tears it up, takes a look around for witnesses again, and throws the bottle and torn label into the trash-filled canal.
Lily of the Valley is the token flower of the 5th division, a symbol of Purity and Innocence. It's also quite poisonous- all parts of the plant are toxic, and will cause cardiac problems in high enough or continuous doses. Foragers must be very careful to not mistake the leaves for wild garlic greens- they look extremely similar. Lily Of The Valley has not much flavor, so a few leaves might not be noticed in a whole bunch, especially if they're all cooked in the same dish together.
Eating a bit won't kill, but one leaf in a bunch a few times a week could prove fatal in a few short months. Especially if the person is prevented from taking Digitoxin to counteract the effects.
He nearly had a heart attack himself when he saw the bottle on the bathroom counter, but with Kakiyo so tired already, it wasn't hard to weave Suigetsu's illusions around her, cutting off her memory of the bottle, and the autopsy report.
He'll have to talk to his co-conspirator about these slip-ups. His wife is quite observant, and it would be a shame if the lovely Kakiyo had to be dealt with as well. At least, before she has been of more use to Aizen. His plan demands that he eventually control the Fifth division, and the fact she outranks him is... inconvenient.
---
About a week later, Head Librarian of the West 51 District Library Kaname Tousen receives a letter from his sister Kakiyo in the Seireitei. She writes (Or rather, she has carefully dented the Vellum with Braille, the thin calfskin holds the marks better through the mail) about the sudden decline and death of their good friend Genkai, and how profoundly the loss has effected his brother-in-law. She doesn't actually use the name "Gosuke" anywhere in the letter, only referring to him as "My husband".
Kaname is saddened as he reads, but then he worries, as she writes about how stressed she's been- strange lapses in memory, paperwork mislaid- thank goodness third seat Aizen had found and filed that report for her. How distant and humorless her husband has been- coming home late and reeking of alcohol even! She has the terrible feeling that there is something wrong, even more than her friend's sudden and saddening death. Something is terribly, terribly wrong, but she can't imagine what it is.
...Maybe it's just the grief. I keep seeing conspiracies in coincidences, jumping at shadows- but there's nothing there.
I know you've got the summer reading program, and I can't take enough time to travel out there right now- write back soon? Tell me about the summer students and the state of the town, how you and Sajin are. You have a gentleness with your words I could use right now.
All my love,
Kakiyo

𦹠AM I THE SAME GIRL? â atsumu miya
âď¸summary âď¸you've taken up two new interestsâgeology and unearthing the truth behind atsumu's new cryptic behavior.
âď¸tagsâď¸getting together, friends to lovers. reader is oblivious. atsumu is predictably, a loser in love.
âď¸wcâď¸3.7k
âď¸anâď¸it is the beginning of winter and for some reason i always think of summer. and also this 100% an excuse to research further about something that has always interested me. half of what i learned didn't even make it into the fic but just know i have about 3 hours worth of stuff lodged in my brain now.
okinawa is a long thirty-six hours from your home in hyogo. you've already vowed to visit once your curator job takes offâand you actually have enough money to stay there. but anyway. the reason you want to visit so badly is because of the hoshizuna no namaâor the star sand beach. where sand is typically made up of tiny rocks and particles, the sand is made of tiny star-shaped little particles.
you know this, and other odd things about rocks you've never heard of before, thanks to your monthly subscription to the petrology society journal. the part time job you've gotten at onigiri miya doesn't allow much for extra expenses, but the journal is one of the things you don't mind dipping into your budget for.
it's nothing something most people would expect from you (and certainly not something you thought you would enjoy so much) but you had caught the tail end of a documentary on the history of the earth while studying for yet another exam.
you're reading the latest issue now, or you're trying to. it's more like you're pretending to read it, as your eyes scan over the same paragraph seven times. in reality, you're way too interested in watching osamu and a few of his friends play a friendly (?) game of volleyball. and more specificallyâwatching atsumu play volleyball.
osamu had asked if you wanted to join, or maybe if you wanted to keep the score but you had declined. these were osamu's friends, and you felt more than a little out of your element just by being there. you attended the inarizaki high, same as osamu and his friends, but to say you were friends then was a generous statement.
at most, you and osamu partnered together often to work on projects or study. classroom friends. not the sort that hung out together outside of school hours. and when you started working part-time at onigiri miya, you assumed it would be the same. it isn't, and as a result, the two of you have struck up a tentative new friendship.
atsumu, osamu's twin, is an entirely different story. even in highschool, he was never someone you were able to understand. and nothing about him ever made any sense. even after all the time that has passed, that remains the same.
it's like he pays too much attention to you, but at the same timeânone at all. you don't get it.
suit yourself atsumu had said, putting his hands on his hips as his eyes traced over youâwatching keenly as you found a place to sit off to the side. you can just be my cheerleader instead.
your scowl had been instantaneous. feathers ruffled, you planted yourself down on your beach chair and forced yourself not to give atsumu the time of the day. a challenge, when he's possibly the hottest person you've ever seen. he carries himself differently than osamu, and you wonder if that's what makes you so drawn to him.
you aren't sure if you want to know the answer. what does that say about you, being attracted to boys with bad attitudes and piss colored hair?
"i don't hear any cheerin" atsumu drawls out, when he catches you staring for maybe the third time in a row. you scowl again, and cross one long leg over the other, body language clearly expressing your displeasure.
the star sand, in the end, isn't made up of anything mythicalânot like you had been expecting. you know magic isn't real, but still your mind had conjured up the idea that the star sand was made of remnants from magical stars. sand, star shaped or not, are made up of decomposed organisms.
your eyes slide once more towards atsumu. for once, he isn't looking back at you. people, famous volleyball athletes or not, are made up of the same things.
--
today had been taxing in a way it hasn't been in a long time. you woke up on the wrong side of the bed, plastered with heat and sweat. class fared no better, and you forced yourself to trudge through the lessonsâcompletely fumbling when a professor suddenly cold-called on you.
the one time you decide to give yourself a few extra hours of sleep instead of keeping up with the reading, you make a fool out of yourself in front of everyone. you're sure no one even remembers it, or gives it a second thought. but you wouldn't know how to stop being so mean to yourself, even if you wanted to.
your day hadn't gotten any better. you spilled a cup of iced coffee all over yourself, tripped and skinned your knee, had a disastrous shift at onigiri miya (to the point where osamu sent you home early)âand to top it all off, passed out the moment you arrived back at your apartment, instead of working on a paper that was due the next day.
never again will i take a summer class, you think to yourself, as you stand sleepily in line at the nearby convenience store.
"you seem tired" a voice says, next to you. and you turn blearily to face atsumu miya himself. "you're in grad school, right?"
it's totally and completely unfair that he gets to walk around looking that perfect. if there is a god, it's clear that he has favorites. and you are most certainly not one of them. atsumu, on the other hand, is.
"i'm regretting taking summer classes" you explain, tracing the floor pattern with the toe of your beat-up sneakers. you don't want to delve too deeply into your issues, and you're unsure if atsumu even cares to listen. "it'sâchallenging. at times"
"it might be a busy day, but try to make some time for yourself. any time spent settling your mind is time well spent. staring pensively into that cup of tea for a few moments can be equally beneficial" says atsumu, reading off of his phone, tone unusually wise. "calm your mind, and your heart, and make it an at-peace day"
it's night. your brow arches, thoroughly concerned.
"what?" is all you say, looking at him.
"it's pretty straightforward you know" atsumu poutsâpouts. this whole infatuation...thing, would be a lot easier if he weren't so pretty to stare at. "just, keep it in mind, okay?"
"...okay" you promise, because what else can you even say at this point.
a grin spreads across his face, surprisingly genuine. you don't even want to begin to unpack what that might mean, so you don't. you pay for your things, and part ways outside of the entrance of the store, going in opposite directions.
you get back to your apartment. and you make yourself a cup of tea, staring at it in the snoopy shaped mug.
it does help you feel a bit better.
--
your favorite shifts at onigiri miya are the morning ones. well, late morning and the beginning of the rush hour. you and osamu typically chat politely, where he asks about the different events happening in your life. neither of you seem to have many friends and you're all the more glad for the easy friendship you have with him.
this morning had been passed in comfortable silence, both of you in separate parts of the shop, working.
that is, until osamu sticks his head to the front of the shop and throughs a wrench in your entire life. "you know you could just talk to him"
"huh?" you say ineloquently, serving spoon held above the rice. it dawns on you pretty quickly, what osamu is saying and you don't have to look at him to know that he knows. still, you lie and reply with, "i have absolutely no clue what you're talking about"
"really? because 'tsumu's standing right there" your head snaps up. atsumu is not there. you turn to glare at osamu, who only laughs loudly at your expense. "god you're easy"
"i'm going to quit" you threaten, though both of you know that isn't the case. osamu only laughs louder. "i don't deserve this treatment"
the bell jingles overhead. "what treatment?" atsumu says, in the flesh this timeâfresh from a jog. both you and his twin look surprised. speak of the devil, they say, and he shall appear. "osamu you better be treating your best employee with the utmost respect!"
"i don't even treat you with the utmost respect" osamu drawls, before heading into the back of the shop so he doesn't have to hear his twin's response.
atsumu, thoroughly annoyed, stalks to the front. he stares down at you through the separation glass and smiles. "good morning. doing better?"
"uhhh" you say, awkwardly, staring at him. or trying not to stare at him. he's wearing a tank top today and you can feel your brain shutting down. eventually, your brain reboots itself and you remember what it is he wanted to know. "yesâthe tea helped. thanks for that"
"no problem" atsumu replies, and rattles off his usual weekend morning order. two spicy tuna and two yaki. he watches you make them with eerily focused eyesâlike it's his first time ever seeing anyone make onigiri or something.
you make your way to the cash register, and atsumu follows. his eyes land on your latest issue of the petrology society journal. "you've been reading those a lot."
your eyes, naturally, also track to the magazine. you usually like to read to pass the time when there's no customers in sight. but being noticed, perceived, by atsumu of all people, makes you feel suddenly too-conscious. you try to remind yourself of the star sand, and how it's just like regular sand. atsumu is just another person. no need to get so worked up about it.
"every time i see you, your nose is usually in it" atsumu saysâunaware of the effect it has on you. he points to the cover. "do you know what kind of rock that is?"
"basalt" you gurgle out, avoiding his stare.
atsumu's eyes light with understanding. "looks kinda like gravel to me" he lifts his gaze to you once more. "is that a rock? gravel?"
you pretend to think on itâlike you haven't covered that topic on one of your earlier issues weeks ago.
"gravel's made up of a lot of other crushed rock" you explain, eyeing him. he's looks genuinely interested. "usually limestone, sandstone and basalt"
atsumu smirks, victorious, and snaps his fingers. "i knew it"
he did not 'know it'. you hand him onigiri with a small smile and a shake of your head anyway.
--
osamu, atsumu, their friends and a handful of new faces you don't quite recognize are playing volleyball in an indoor gym. once again, osamu has extended an invitation to youâbut you learn that atsumu has asked that you be there as well.
this time, you bring along an ice cooler, stashed with water bottles. you don't really know what volleyball players eat to conserve energy and after classes sucking the joy from your body, you didn't feel too up to making anything. but they seem overjoyed at the snacks you've brought anyway.
what excites a bunch of grown adult men about mere trail mix and greek yogurt, you'll never understand. but if it means everyone likes it, then you're happy. you're chatting with a few siblings and close friends of the players and you're having so much fun you haven't bothered to pick up your magazine once. but its tucked into your crossbody bag, pressing up against your side as a gentle reminder of its presence.
watching them play volleyball is fun all on its own, too. atsumu and his brother play on the same team, playfully bickering with one another. and then atsumu's eyes search through the small gathering of people watching until they land on yours. he slaps the back of osamu's shoulder and jogs off the court before he can retaliate.
"give me your hands" atsumu says, instead of greeting you like a normal person.
you, predictably, do no such thing. instead, you shoot him a cautious look, cradling them to your chest. "i'm not doing that"
atsumu rolls his eyes. "just do it"
he holds his hands out, expectant. side-eying him, you comply. he takes hold of themâtouch surprisingly gentle. his hands are warm, but aren't sweaty like you'd expect. he turns your palms over, and his eye's scan over them, studying them.
there's not much else for you to do, but join him. you look at your palms, trying to see what he see's. if he's seeing anything at all.
"you know, by looking at your hands, i'd say you would make a pretty good spiker" he says, and then, crypticallyâ"a twist in your plans will lead to unexpected joy. embrace the change"
"what are you, miya-san, you aren't making much sense at all" you say, trying not to give away how much you like it when he gently starts to trace over your palm lines with his thumb.
atsumu holds up one of your hands, comparing it to his own. "your palms and your fingers are proportionalâsee? signs of a good hitter they say"
that sounds like you made it up, you want to say, but don't.
"and the last partâit was your horoscope this morning" he says, continuing to make less and less sense. why does he know your horoscope in the first place? does he check it periodically, or is this a spur of the moment thing? the two of you are still holding hands. what does any of this mean?
i didn't know atsumu was into this kind of stuff, you think to yourself, as you stare at his hands in return. you suppose you aren't the only one with new, emerging interests.
"and what do your hands say?" you reply instead, hoping that he doesn't pull away.
atsumu snorts, and this time, places his in yours. "well i guess you can check. not that you know what you're looking for"
"well explain it to me then" you retort with a roll of your eyes, turning his palms over in your hands, like he had done with yours. you hear the hitch of breath that follows, before you see it.
"well my fingers are slightly longer and that means they're unproportioned to my palms" he explains, matter of factly. you stare more pointedly at his hands, so you don't have to look up into his face. "so you could say i would make a good middle blocker"
"but you're not" you say, frowning.
"i'm not" atsumu confirms, smirking at youâlike it's a fond secret the two of you share. someone laughs in the background, surely not at the two of you, but he pulls away anyway, running a hand through his hair.
"is it really that hard for you to want to cheer for me?" he asks suddenly, staring at you.
confusion falls upon your face. every time it seems that you finally have a handle on the conversation, atsumu has to flip them so that you remain ever puzzled. "huh?"
"i always ask you to. cheer for me, i mean." he explains, uncharacteristically looking away. "but you never do. you cheer sometimes for osamu, or suna. oran especially."
you wish for the contact of his hands again. "i didn't think you were serious. i'm sorry"
it dawns on you then, that he has. nearly every time they play, in fact. he asks without fail. but you assumed it was a joke, or something.
"try it next time?" he asks, 100% serious, ignoring the way his team calls out for him. you have a feeling this isn't about the cheering anymore. but it's like you're missing several pieces of a particularly large and complex puzzle. in other words. you have no idea what it is that atsumu means behind his words.
"okay" you say, because what else is there to say?
atsumu beams, and jogs back onto the court.
--
osamu says he's going to head out to go pick up some supplies. he returns forty-minutes later with no supplies and with atsumu in tow, flanked on the other side by suna.
"hi atsumu, hi suna" you greet, waving, closing your magazine. "are you guys getting anything?"
suna and osamu look to be in much higher spirits than atsumu, who looks seconds away from puking. he doesn't. suna leans close to whisper in his ear, and atsumu glares at him fiercelyâtrying to turn around to leave the store. osamu doesn't let him, looking all too cheerful to push him towards you.
you decide you really don't want to know what shenanigans the three of them are up to.
"your usual, miya-san?" you ask again, putting on a pair of serving gloves.
atsumu spares another look at his brother, before shuffling forwards half-a-step. he rubs nervously at the back of his neck, avoiding your gaze. "there's a market. for crystals and stuff, about an hour from here in osaka. it's here for two weeks and i wanted to know if you wanted to go with me"
then, looking up at the ceiling of all things, continues. "it'll have other stuff too. like horoscopes and fortune telling."
you don't really need the extra information. you figured that sort of thing would be there. but horoscopes are kind of atsumu's thing. you're pleased he wants to share it with youâeven if you find it a little cool as well.
"sure" you smile "sounds fun"
atsumu looks as though he could faint. or puke. or maybe do some combination of the two. but his color improves, and he gives you a small smile in return, shockingly bashful.
he peers down at you, shedding all of his strange behavior. "okay. great. tomorrow? i'll pick you up"
"tomorrow works for me, miya-san" you reply, good-naturedly.
atsumu turns and leaves onigiri miya without another word.
"you should dress nice" suna says, oddly, once he's completely gone. osamu's too busy typing madly on his phone to interject, so you look at him strangely. now he is starting not to make sense.
--
you do dress nicely. so much so, that atsumu compliments you on it at least four different times before you can even make it to the marketplace. i like your hair, it's cute. pretty, like your skirt. things like that. you don't know what to make of it.
"are you excited?" you ask, once the security guard hands the two of you wristbands.
atsumu clasps his on deftly, but signals for you to hold out your wrist once he notices you struggling. you try not to jerk in place every time his fingers graze your skinâbut you aren't sure how successful you are at keeping a straight face.
"shouldn't i be asking you that?" he asks, raising his brows in confusion. he doesn't wait for you to answer, tugging you along by the hand in the direction of one of the booths.
"oh i recongize this one" you tell him, pointing down at a jagged stone. "its called chalcedony. i read about it a few days ago. it's a type of cryptocrystalline"
"a what?" atsumu asks, shoving his hands in his pockets as he stares down at the stone with a puzzled expression. it's cute on him, the casual bewilderment. he looks at it like he's trying to place where he's seen it before.
"a cryptocrystalline" you repeat, smiling at him. much easier to do when he isn't looking at you. "it means you can only tell that it has the structure of crystalline when its under a magnifying glass"
atsumu hums, pleased. "cool", he says, and browses the rest of the booth with you. once you're done with that one, poiting out all of the stones and rocks you've read aboutâatsumu pulls you along to the next one, eager to repeat the process. he's seems interested in what you have to say, asking questions to pick your brain for more information when he senses you might be holding out on him.
"i'm glad i heard about this" he brings up, as you walk away from a food stallâmatching bowls of yakisoba in hand. "i read yesterday that opportunity only seizes those who are ready to take it and that i need to take the fearful leap"
you stop a stray noodle from landing on your crisp yellow cardigan, looking over at him. "what?"
atsumu's eyes are on yours. "my horoscope" he says, like it means something important.
"oh!" you exclaim, once realization hits you "i'm surprised you've gotten so into horoscopes and fortune telling"
a odd look crosses his face. "i'm notâyou are"
"no i'm not" you tell him. "why would you think that?"
atsumu's face heats. "well, you're always reading about the rocks. the crystals and gemstones"
"i like petrology. not crystals and gems" you explain, unable to hide your smile. "it's about rocks in general. like their origins or what they're composed of"
you remember all of atsumu's cryptic words, odd, strange ways of speaking. the sage advice in the store that one time. they were horoscopes. before you can stop it, you burst out laughing. you try to muffle it into your arm, but the sound escapes anyway.
"that's what you were meaning with all those weird things you kept saying?" you ask, once you've managed to stop laughing. "i thought you were trying toâi don't know, warn me of my ominous and impending doom!"
"i wasn't" atsumu pouts, tossing his unfinished yakisoba into the trash. "i was trying to find something to start a conversation with you. i didn't know how else to tell you i liked you"
your amusement dries up and your throat closes up. your eyes look around, at everywhere else but him.
"...are you going to say anything?" atsumu asks, looking like the boy you remember from highschool.
"iâuh. i like you too" you stammer out, staring down at your shoes. it's shockingly easy to do. logically, you knew there was always a small, small chance that he would reciprocate your feelings, always in the most pleasant of dreams.
in them, atsumu would blush (much like he is now) and ask "are you sure?" much like his is now.
and in your dreams, you would throw your arms around his neck and kiss him. or confess your undying love and attraction to the most strangest boy you've ever known. but like the star sand, and so many other rocks you've learned about, reality does not end up like your wistful imagination.
"i'm sure" you nod, and gingerly reach for his hand. "do you want to keep looking around?"
atsumu beams. squeezes your hand in his own. it feels better than any of your dreams could have ever conjured up. "'course i do"

Hello sweetieđ I accomplished the void last night and I want to share my story with you. Well, first of all I did a few days of self concept (I didn't do anything special, I listened to subliminals and reminded myself that I already have it). In fact, when people said that the self-concept was something important to the void, I didn't take it very seriously, I thought it was a limiting belief. but such an idea came to my mind, I tried not to achieve the self concept void, but to make me realize that I already have what I want. In this process, I really achieved great results, I felt better now, family problems decreased as much as possible, and most importantly, I realized my unlimited power. and here is the day i entered void!!!
It was evening hours, I didn't specifically listen to a meditation or a frequency void subliminal. I lay down on my bed, closing my eyes and concentrating on my heartbeat, just with an idea that I was sure was going to enter a state of emptiness. I relaxed my body, then repeated the familiar affirmations inwardly (like I was in the void) After that, I got to the most important stage, my body started to take off, it was like I was floating in a vacuum. I suddenly realized that the sounds were gone, the flashes of light before my eyes and the darkness that followed were pulling me in. At that moment I realized that I was in void and said my wishes.
My manifests:
⢠I passed a university exam and it cannot be said that I was that successful. so i first manifest the result i want.
⢠I added the foods that I had been craving for a few days on a board I created on Pinterest, I wanted them to be in my closet when I woke up.
⢠50 kg and my dream body type
⢠The most beautiful state of my own face, free of all my insecurities
⢠a pet cat
⢠Every time I want to just close my eyes and affirm, enter the void in seconds.
⢠Albums and magazines of all my favorite kpop groups
⢠some anime manga
⢠mastering the manifest, the instant reflection of my wishes on my reality
⢠have a perfect self concept
⢠that my mother is completely healthy and peaceful
⢠a laptop, a new tablet, the latest headphones and my dream phone
⢠large amount of money in my safe for myself
⢠My dream room and also a closet to put my snacks
I had manifested that all my wishes would come true the moment I woke up. The first thing I did when I woke up was to look at the phone and it was exactly what I wanted! then i got out of bed and looked around my room, it was exactly the same as in my dream! then i checked my new tech and money, they were in place too.everything was exactly how I wanted it! I literally felt like a dream, but it was all real. After I suppressed my excitement, I heard my mother's voice, she was saying that the exam results were announced. I entered the site from the phone and checked my result! I have quite enough and an excellent result for the university I want!
I just want to say, you can achieve anything, my dears! Just discover that limitless power and don't give up no matter what. You don't have a single thing missing from successful people, first realize that. You are in control of your reality and it is up to you to shape it according to your wishes. I will give an example from myself, I had so many problems that I was not even in good health. I overcame all this myself. And now I am very happy, living my dreams. take care of yourself, believe in yourself, believe that what you can do is limitless, respect your achievements. I believe in you.
Iâve gotten so many success stories lately. I wonât post all of them and still donât plan on coming back but I promise I see them and Iâm so happy for yâall even if I donât post it đđđđ

Can I lick your candy, sensei?
Roger and Anita cameo? :0c
If he doesnât scare you, no evil thing will.
Crewelâs mouth lifted into a smirk, a quiet scoff escaping from the corner of it. He stopped stirring his tea and lifted his stick, pointedly jabbing it in your direction. A glob of something sweet, gray, and half melted glistened at the end of that utensil.
âI donât know. Can you?â There was a taunting lilt on the one word. âI thought I had drilled better manners into you than that, pup.â
âMay I, sensei?â you corrected yourself.
âHow obedient of you. Could it be that youâre desperate to receive my praise?â
âWell, you gave Grim a piece of candy for studying the other day, so⌠I want one too.â
Crewel chuckled as he set his stirring stick on his saucer and next to a spotted tea cup. âVery well. Because youâve requested it so politelyâand, moreover, performed well on our last examâI will reward you with a treat.â
He reached for a drawer and, pulling it open, produced a lollipop wrapped in cellophane. The sugar had been colored gray and was shaped into the head and neck of a Dalmatian, complete with dark detailing for a nose, collar, its ears, and spotted fur.
You blinked as he deposited the sweet in your hands. âI didnât realize you kept so many candies on hand.â
âNot many consistently earned,â he replied, his tone slightly sarcastic. âNo, I initially stocked up on these thanks to my meddlesome neighbors back in the Queendom.â
âYour neighbors? How do they fit into this?â
âTheyâre a couple, the overly loving sort. I believe the husband is a songwriter. The wife is an old colleague of mine from my days in the fashion industry.â
Crewel shook his head disapprovingly. âI keep telling them to not gift me things, but itâs in the ear and out the other. The latest item I received was a silicone candy mold. They said the shape of it reminded them of me.â
You held the lollipop up. At this angle, you could better appreciate the details in the design or the dog, and how the sunlight looked when filtered through tinted sugar.
I can definitely see why they thought that. Crewel-sensei loves dogs.
âI hadnât intended to seriously use it,â Crewel continued with a sigh, âuntil I realized a âcandyâ-like form is good to take with tea.
âSugar is loose and grainy, honey is sticky. Both can be deleterious for oneâs clothesâbut suppose you prepare a sugar syrup and let it to harden with a stick. It results in a lollipop, but it also doubles as a mess-free and reusable method to sweeten oneâs tea.â
So thatâs what he was doing.
âI guess you owe your neighbors a thank you,â you teased, this time pointing at Crewel with your own sugar-topped stick.
âPerhaps I do.â He reclined in his chair, lips thoughtfully hovering at the rim of his tea cup. âHmph, now if only they would listen to me for onceâŚâ
âNo such thing as a dog that canât learn new tricks,â you joked with a shrug. Off came the cellophane wrapping, and you popped the lollipop in your mouth. âAnd if anyone can do it, itâs you, Crewel-sensei.â
âHah. Glad to know that I have your faith, pup.â
He lifted his cup to youâa toast. Then he drank heartily, the tea tasting like triumph.

I'll Love You 'til the Grass Around My Gravestone is Deceased
harry potter timeline sirius black x fem!reader
CHAPTER THIRTEEN (see full series here)
1993
The school year draws to a close, with the school still chattering away about Sirius. You spend it relatively simply, teaching the last of your classes and then finally handing out end-of-year exam results. You're glad to see Hermione gets an almost perfect score â and Ron and Harry do...well, they do okay. You make a mental note to start buckling down on their incessant chatting during class.
You also spend it full of worries. Your every waking moment seems to be consumed with thoughts about Sirius. He's out there, all alone, on the run â you can't imagine how he's feeling right now. It ties knots in your stomach. You just want to grab and hold him, caress his soft, smooth skin, run your hands through his silky curls â
You miss him.
You sit in your compartment on the Hogwarts Express, flicking through the latest edition of The Quibbler. It's quite a unique little publication, very quirky. Luna Lovegood, one of your second years â her dad is the editor, so you decided to pick up the magazine after she recommended it to you once.
You're currently skim-reading a very in-depth article about some sort of creature called an 'epippinpor', when the door to your compartment slides open and Harry pokes his head inside.
"Harry!" you greet. "Need something?"
He holds out a folded piece of parchment, smiling. "Padfoot."
You take the parchment from him as he leaves, closing the door again. You beam excitedly, throwing down The Quibbler and pulling the parchment into your lap. Dubh gets up and starts to sniff the parchment curiously and you giggle, full of giddiness like you're a young teenager again.
My darling love,
I hope you get this before you've left Hogwarts, otherwise it may be quite some time before this letter reaches you. I decided to put your letter in with Harry's, because I'm sure your post is being monitored.
Buckbeak and I are in hiding, so you don't need to worry. I have so many questions to ask you, so many things to tell...I guess they'll just have to wait. I miss you, my love, just like you miss the stars during the daytime.
I hope I haven't lost my romantic flair.
Also, you're a professor now? Very professional, Professor Black. I suppose it does have a pretty sweet ring to it. And Astronomy, too? I'm still your favourite star, right?
You snort, rolling your eyes. Typical. You can just imagine his face when he wrote that: signature smirk, maybe a wink.
Can I get a kiss for that when we reunite again?
Typical!
I wish I could be with you this summer. At our home. Also...do you have a cat? I thought I saw you with a cat. Come on, love, we are obviously a dog home!
I miss you so much. I miss your voice, your warmth, your beautiful face, your kisses. Especially the last one. It's not easy to go twelve years without a single kiss...even if the Dementors offered me several. I love you with all of my heart. If you need me for anything, Harry's owl will find me. All my love, Sirius. P.S. I love you. I can't wait to see you again.
You smile at the letter, eyes tracing the edges of his scratchy handwriting. Your stomach is full of fluttering butterflies and it really does feel like you're a schoolgirl again. You re-read the letter several times, smiling especially wide when he says he loves you or compliments you.
No, Sirius. You didn't lose your romantic flair. Not one bit.
You reach out to pet Dubh, still holding the letter in your hand.
Maybe next year will be a little different.
â â§â *â ăâ§â *â ă
"Here you go," you say, handing Remus his cup of tea. He accepts it, careful not to spill a drop, and gives you a grateful smile.
"Thanks."
"So, any news?" You ask, pulling your legs up onto the couch and folding them in beside you as you look at the man in front of you. You're sitting in your living room, a wonderfully cosy little room, warmed by soft rays of August sunshine. There's green plants dotted around, and the walls have photos and beautiful paintings decorating it. There's even a few of Remus' original paintings up there!
One big hobby of Remus' is painting, though he is very secretive about it. He paints beautiful landscapes and still-lifes...it calms him.
One particular painting catches your eye. You had once asked him to paint you a nice, simple picture of pottery. A jug, a bowl, a plate...just general pottery works. It's quite nice.
Remus shrugs. "Nothing really since last we spoke. How are your parents?"
You stayed with your parents last week. Dubh had been put into Remus' care, as she always is, and she always comes back a little fatter than before because Remus is a big softie.
"They're grand, yeah," you reply with a shrug. "I told them everything that happened and honestly they were pretty nonchalant about it all, you know how they are...Mam thought I was very stressed and made me one of her special herbal teas and honestly, it was amazing. Felt young again."
"You are young," Remus says with a sigh.
"Sure don't feel it," you say bitterly. "Could do with a dose of that special tea every morning."
"So this tea isn't special?" Remus asks, gesturing to the cup in his hand.
"Not at all," you reply with a short chuckle. "I asked her what she puts in it, and she said it was an 'age-old secret only passed down when the last generation has ceased and the next lives on'. She's lying, of course, she's only saying that to be mysterious. I'm beginning to think that it's just the placebo effect."
Remus nods thoughtfully. "I think I'm going to trust your mother's words and say it is an age-old secret."
"Suck up."
He raises his mug and gives you a mocking smile. You sigh.
"And," you continue, "Dad took me to the muggle cinema, and we seen this film called 'Mrs Doubtfire'. Moony, when I tell you I sobbed â Merlin, muggles sure know how to make an emotional impact. I'm beginning to think that truly, wizards aren't better than muggles because they get to have cool films and we don't. It's unfair, really, if you think about it."
"'Mrs Doubtfire'? What was it about?" Remus asks.
"A woman called Mrs Doubtfire, obviously," you say and he rolls his eyes. "But turns out it's not actually a woman, it's this guy whose wife divorced him and can barely see his kids, so he pretends to be their babysitter and puts on a wig and a mask and fake tits and everything â "
"And that made you cry?"
"It was emotional! Then he gets caught and can only see the kids with someone supervising the visits! Isn't that sad, Moony? It's much sadder in the movie."
He raises his eyebrows, humming in weak agreement. "Right."
You scoff, sighing. "Anyway...Quidditch World Cup is coming up! And guess who's going?"
"You? No way, how did you get tickets?" Remus asks in shock.
You grin. "Minerva McGonagall, the gem that she is! Sent me a letter yesterday morning. Said she happened upon two tickets and asked me to go with her."
"I didn't know the two of you were such good friends."
You shrug. "Sometimes it can be a bit odd because she used to be my teacher, y'know â but she's such fun to be around. I mean, I've told you before that we have tea together sometimes."
He nods thoughtfully. "Mhm, yes, I remember."
"Anyway, I'm really looking forward to it! I wish I could bring you with me," you say with a small apologetic smile.
Remus waves you off. "It's a full moon. I daresay I might steal the spotlight off the teams if I attend."
You laugh. "That may be so."
â all kinds of interaction are appreciated âĄ
â â§â *â ăâ§â *â ă
ââ read chapter fourteen here!
sorry for the extra-short chapter...just wanted to draw this year to a close. Goblet of fire next!!!
as always, a big thank you to my taglist loves for all their amazing kindness and support:

John Tracy hated taking public transport.
He hated the cramped seats, the invasion of his personal space, the fact the bus stopped every few minutes to pick up more passengers and the noise.
It was stressful, annoying and far too full of people.
But the astrolabs were too far from the dorm to hike it or bike it, so bus it was.
He mapped out the most direct route, left early to avoid the crowds and handled it the best he could. Earphones helped and he never travelled without his tablet and a network connection.
He made do.
He made do for over a year. Every morning and every night.
The work was fascinating and he thoroughly enjoyed it. He considered getting a car, but it wasnât practical and parking was non-existent, so he stuck with the bus.
Despite the fact he hated it.
Every trip he buried himself in his own world whether it be his work, research, a good book or even a movie. He shut the world out and more importantly anyone who sat next to him.
Sometimes this was not possible.
Because sometimes they spoke to him.
John had been brought up polite. His grandmother would have slapped his wrist if she found out he was ignoring people. So, he always replied. Often concisely, but always watching his manners.
That often opened the floodgates. Because if there was anything common between big cities it was the people who were lost in them, desperately alone in a sea of faces.
John liked being alone to a certain extent, but he was blessed with a close and large family.
Some people had no one.
So, ever so reluctantly, he found himself answering their call for help.
The first was Mrs Bucklin. She was a tiny woman, well dressed, but slightly scented with mothballs as if her clothes hadnât been out of the closet in a long time.
She sat right beside him and immediately enquired as to what he was doing.
At the time he was coding a new game and her sharp voice startled him enough for his fingers to slip and enter a chain of commands he had not intended. He would have sworn if he was alone, but the program righted itself and the new commands, instead of corrupting and crashing the function, actually appeared to improve it. He frowned and hastily input some bridging structures so the code wouldnât fragment, idly wondering if the error would improve the game, ruin it, have him need to rewrite the whole section or be the spark that would initiate sentience.
Great, his tablet would rise up and eat him while he was distracted by a random bus passenger.
She did apologise and he did reassure her that it was all okay in the hope she would let him be.
She didnât.
He learnt she had three cats, a niece in another country (he didnât gather which because the womanâs pronunciation defied translation), that she had lost her son in the Global Conflict, she liked his hair (that was a first) and that he looked like an intelligent young man.
He acknowledged her quietly and politely as he eyed his code and the results of an initial compile test. How did it do that?
Her cats were named Scottie, Gordy and Allie.
He did blink at that, but didnât comment.
Eventually, she said goodbye and got off the bus at her stop.
He would have forgotten about her, except she sat next to him the next day and the day after that.
Apparently, this was her route to work, and he was such a polite young man.
Three weeks later she admitted he made her feel safe just by being there. She had been mugged three times in her life and public transport was as much a bane for her as it was for him.
He actively kept an eye out for her after that.
Gus was a different matter.
Gus didnât have a home and he often rode the bus just for the air conditioning and comfort.
He sat on the other side of the walkway to John. He didnât say much and would likely have never said anything if it hadnât been for the gang of boys who decided to throw verbal potshots at him one day.
John had had an all-nighter with exams coming up, so he was cranky. His latest project had stalled â the same game he had been tackling when Mrs Bucklin had startled him. The core of the program had become a little unpredictable and he couldnât work out why.
So, when a group of teenagers crawled to the back of the bus and started needling a fellow passenger, it was not only a situation where the innocent man appeared to need a bit of a rescue, but it also pissed John off.
There were four of them. Teenagers flocked in groups apparently. Heâd never been one for that formation himself, but he knew of them, had encountered them and Virgil had kicked a few of their asses for him.
John was in college now.
He could kick his own fair share of ass quite happily.
âLeave the man alone, or I will call the police.â He raised his voice, but not his head, transmitting all the body language of how beneath his notice they were and how he might respond if they didnât comply.
âMind your own business, kook!â
There was always a brave one amongst the group, usually the ringleader, the head dickhead.
At least they were only teenagers.
This time he did look up and put all that communication theory into the coldest stare possible. âExcuse me?â
All four of them froze. Hell, they couldnât be older than fifteen, somewhere between Gordy and Alan. If either of his brothers acted like this, there were three older brothers who would quite firmly re-educate them on proper conduct.
Not that he thought either of his younger brothers would do such a thing.
In any case, all four of them stared at him wide-eyed. The eldest swore and climbed out of his seat just as the bus pulled up at the next stop. He snarled at John as he stalked past, spitting profanities. His cohorts followed and they climbed off the bus.
It was lovely and quiet after that and John went back to tackling his misbehaving program.
âThank you, sir.â
John blinked up at the unkempt man who had been the centre of the teenagersâ torment.
A small smile. âYouâre welcome.â
Was this variable being changed by the program itself? How the hell could it do that?
He didnât fail to notice after that incident that Gus, as he introduced himself the next time they met, always sat near John on his rides, morning or evening.
John met other people. Mrs Magarey and her three young children always needed a hand with her pram. John sometimes took advantage of this and stuck the pram in the footwell of the seat next to him so no-one could sit there.
That made Mrs Bucklin sit behind him and whisper her stories in his ear.
He wasnât sure if he was comfortable with that either.
Two other students from his faculty took the same bus as well. Ridley was in the year behind him and always had a friend on the phone. She chattered a lot and he learnt to tune her out.
Well, until the day he boarded the bus and found her crying into her tablet.
She had lost her entire thesis in a computer crash. He was polite. He enquired and she answered, staring up at him as if she had never seen him before. Which was entirely possible. John didnât like to draw attention to himself.
He accompanied her off the bus that day and delved into her damaged computer. He dug up her thesis and she gushed all over him, even crying into his sweater.
He hugged her awkwardly and wished her all the best.
After that, she always said hello and had a smile for him.
John smiled back, but his program was still not behaving. It acted as if it had a mind of its own and it was very distracting.
Mrs Bucklin said it sounded like cat number two, Gordy. Never behaving, but always loveable.
John stared at her when she said that, and wondered if she knew more than she was letting on.
The day Virgil landed in the seat beside him on the way to the labs startled him enough to drop his tablet.
âHey, Johnny.â
He fumbled between the seats for the device. âDonât call me Johnny.â
âSorry.â But he could tell Virgil was anything but.
His fingers touched the cool metal of his tablet and he scrabbled for it. âWhat are you doing here?â
âCanât a brother drop in on his brother to see how he is doing?â
John eyed him. If it was Scott sitting next to him or Gordon, he might have been suspicious of any double meaning his brother might be communicating. But this was Virgil and although the engineer had a sense of humour that could cut when necessary, this wasnât his style.
âI guess he can. But why the bus?â
Virgil shrugged. âDidnât catch you early enough. Barely caught the bus behind you. I thought your classes didnât start until later.â
âThey donât.â
âThen why are you up so early?â
It was Johnâs turn to shrug. âJust avoiding the crowds, I guess.â
Virgil eyed him with a slightly worried frown.
âAnd who is this lovely young man who has taken my seat?â
Oh god.
Virgil stared up at Mrs Bucklin as she bustled in to sit behind them.
An internal sigh. âMrs Bucklin, this is my brother Virgil.â
âYour brother?â She eyed Virgil as if inspecting him for sale. âDoesnât look like you at all. Whereâs the red hair?â
Virgil arched a dark eyebrow.
âNevertheless, Mrs Bucklin, Virgil is my older brother.â
âThen how come we havenât met before? Youâve been travelling this route for a year now and we havenât seen hide or hair of him.â She continued to glare at Virgil as if he was a threat.
Virgil was shifting in his seat, his expression decidedly wary.
âVirgil has been assisting my father on a project. Heâs an engineer. Iâm unsure what he is doing here right now.â
âHmph, well, in my opinion, he should have been here earlier.â She addressed Virgil directly. âDid you know your sweet little brother has been a bastion of this bus route, defending and assisting all?â
What?
Johnâs head shot up. âMrs Bucklin-â
âDonât you go all humble pie on me, young man. I saw what you did to those teenagers and how you help young Mollie every week. That girl is going to work herself into an early grave. And poor Gus, youâve given him a new reason to try. Did you know he has enrolled himself in a course? Got himself a grant from the government and everything. Got help from that employment assistance group. Not to mention that doe-eyed young student who stares at you with love hearts floating about her head. I donât know what you did for her, but I have no doubt she would do anything for you if you asked.â She turned back to Virgil, accusation in her eyes. âWhy havenât you been looking after your brother?â
Virgilâs wide eyes darted between John and the older woman.
John had no idea what to say.
âWell?â Mrs Bucklinâs glare was determined.
âAh-â
âIs this man harassing you?â
John looked up to see Gus looming over Virgil.
You know, the Virgil who lifted weights that weighed more than his brothers on a daily basis.
John frowned. Gus had a new coat on and was looking much healthier than the last time he paid attention. âNo, Gus. This is my older brother Virgil.â
And Virgil was subjected to another staring glare. âDoesnât look like your brother.â
What?!
âI can assure you that he is indeed my caring older brother and he is not neglecting me in any way.â
Gus grunted, still glaring at Virgil. He nodded in Johnâs direction. âMake sure he eats more. Heâs too skinny.â
That started Mrs Bucklin off again. âMy goodness, yes. John you do not eat enough. Have you tried any of those recipes I recommended?â
Gus was still eyeing Virgil.
Virgil appeared to be regretting several recent life choices.
âIâm fine, Mrs Bucklin.â He raised his hands. âAnd both of you, Virgil is not responsible for my wellbeing.â
His tablet beeped. A glance and he found a text message from Ridley. You okay over there?
He looked up and found her at the other end of the bus staring back at him worriedly.
A sigh.
A flick of his fingers. Iâm fine.
He turned back to Virgil who was literally cornered, only for his tablet to chime again.
You free tonight?
Oh, for the love of-
âGuys, Virgil is my big brother. He looks after me. He cares. Iâm fine. Heâs here for a visit. I donât know why yet. Stop glaring at him.â
Gus grunted again and wandered off to his seat. He didnât stop eyeing Johnâs brother for a second.
Mrs Bucklin let off a slightly miffed sound before leaning back in her seat. âHe better. Or I have a mind to bring Scottie with me next time. Or maybe Gordy. To teach him a lesson.â
What the hell?
âNo need, Mrs Bucklin. I assure you.â
Virgil was staring at John as if he wasnât sure what planet he was on.
John sighed.
Yeah, he hated public transport.
It was stressful, annoying and far too full of people.
His tablet pinged again. This time it was the program he was working on. It was claiming it was dawn despite the fact the sun had risen an hour ago. He let out an exasperated hiss.
Virgil was still staring at him.
Damn public transport.
