Nozel Silva x Y/n Vermillion

Mentions: Confession, 1st kiss, family, overall fluff!!!

Reblogs are appreciated <3 (no proof read. Random short story!)

“You’re a piece of shit Nozel. You and your stupid sister and brother. How could you treat Noelle like that?” You said. “ She’s nothing but a failure. She’s born defective.” Nozel replied. You managed to slap him even though you’re short. He looked at you with anger. Before he could say anything hurtful to you, Fuegoleon showed up with 2 newcomers and Yami. “ Hey Y/n this is Yuno. He’s part of the Golden Dawn and that’s Asta. He’s a black bull. It's your job to show them around.” Your older brother ordered. “ Yes, big brother. Yuno, Asta. I’m y/n Vermillion. It’s really nice meeting you.” You greeted as you began to walk with them. Once you reached the end of the hall and turned, Fuegoleon looked pissed. 

“Don’t you ever dare cross the fucking line with my baby sister. Have your family issues in your house, not mine.” He said. “ She slapped me because of my family issues.”Nozel replied. His other siblings are backing him up. “ Well if she did it, it must be for a very good reason. Why are you even here?” Fuegleon asked. Yami stood there loving the drama. “The same reason why Yami is here.” Nozel replied. “Ah so you heard about Asta’s grimoire.” Yami said. “He’s a commoner. He has Devil Anti Magic.” Nozel said. “So?” Yami said, defending his new weird comrade. “He’ll end up bringing  trouble to the clover kingdom.” Nozel replied. “ I don’t even know why I brought you here, Yami. Both of you can leave now. You know where the door is.” Fuegoleon said and left. 

Weeks have gone by and Leo smacked your head. “You have a thing for Nozel.''Leo said. “N-No I don’t. Shut up.” you replied, smacking him back. “You might be older than me, but I totally pay attention to your life, like you do mine. You like him, you just hate the part where he’s an asshole to his little sister.” he responded. He was right. “ Well it’s not going to happen. He’s 7 years older than me and his siblings hate me so..” you said and you got another smack to the head. “ Since when the heck do you care about what others think? You don’t need to get his siblings approval. Ask him out.” Leo said with a smile afterwards. “ You make that sound so easy.” you replied.

The following week Nozel showed up at your home. Leo was acting weird for a while. “Leo thanks for the outfit. I look like a total badass. This is such a nice gift.” you said. He said - Try it on- that little liar. A few minutes later you’re down at the end of the stairs dressed beautifully with Nozel handing you a single rose and a nice box. You saw Leo giving you a thumbs up. “ I had the jewelry made just for you.” Nozel spoke as he showed you. “ In purple too. It's perfect.” You replied with a smile. “It goes well with your outfit. He put the necklace on you, along with the bracelet and earrings. “I was surprised when I received your letters. I didn’t know you felt that way about me. I thought about you a few times so I decided to try us out.” Nozel said. You couldn’t believe that Leo went behind your back but you were happy he did. You have a fucking date with Nozel. You guys left your house. A few minutes passed. You ended up in a very beautiful part of the forest. It was also decorated. Nice lights wrapped around the trees. There was a cute table for two with a basket on the table. “ I know you have been into picnics since you were younger. I decided to plan one as our 1st date.” he said. By the end of the day. He took you both on a nice ride. You loved how the breeze felt against your skin. It feel pleasing,however it was cold. You leaned against him. He pulled you in closer. Your heart beat did raise a bit out of nervousness but you also felt safe.“ This is wonderful Nozel.” you said looking up at him. He suddenly kissed you. You returned the kiss. It was your 1st kiss. It made you worry afterwards. What if you sucked at it and he didn’t like it?? Before you knew it, you stood at the front door. Leo was covering for you, its very late. He’s waiting for you by the stairs. You opened the door. “Tonight was great Zel. I enjoyed it very much.” you said. “I enjoyed it as well, it was beautiful. You made me get out of my comfort zone. The picnic, skipping rocks, even stargazing.” he said, placing his hands on your waist and leaning down to kiss you. Leo stopped him. “Hell no!! Not on the 1st date you perv. Now leave.” he said. “ 2nd date then?” Nozel said. “No. Not the 2nd date! Have some respect!” Leo responded. You walked inside smiling. “Oh Leo…your letters sucked. She’s straight forward. She wouldn’t waste her time writing letters. She would’ve shown up at my door and asked.” Nozel said. “ Hey, I was doing both of you a favor. Loser. Nozel you’d probably struggle so much at confessing and y/n you doubt yourself 24/7. I’m the love whisperer. Okay bye Nozel.'' Leo said, shutting the door. “Did you enjoy the date?” Leo asked you. “Leo, did I ever mention you’re my favorite brother?” you asked, saying it like he was your fairy godfather. You and Leo heard a cough. “ I see you’re dating Nozel.” Fuegouleon said. Fuegoleons aura was strong. You and Leo froze in place. “Y-Yes um..Y-Yeah.” you said honestly knowing if you lied you would be in big trouble. “I um..I got them together.” Leo said. “Leopold.That was supposed to be my job.” Fuegoleon said. “Sleepover Leo?” you asked. He nodded. Sleepover meant running from Fuegoleon or Mereoleona and locking yourselves in a room. You both ran fast. “ Emo or Pop?” Leo asked. “Emo!” you responded by running to your room with him. You and Leo made it safely. 

“They can’t stay in there forever.” Mereoleona said from the top of the stairs. “You’re right. Let's sleep now.” Fuegoleon said. The Vermillion family went to sleep to be well rested for tomorrow's chase. Little ones vs older ones. 

As Nozel walked inside and locked the door, his siblings Nebra and Solid stood there. “Where were you? It’s very late.” Nebra said. “ Yeah. We waited for you to show up for dinner.” Solid said, crossing his arms. “ It’s none of your business where I go and You don’t need me to have dinner with you every night.” Nozel said. “Nozel it's almost 1am.” She said, trying to get Nozel’s explanation. Nozel looked in their eyes and felt a bit bad. He didn’t say where he was going nor said he’d be home late and on top of that he never skips dinner with him unless there’s a mission going on. “ I had a date with Y/n Vermillion. We had a nice picnic dinner. Then we lost track of time.” Nozel said smiling. “ You’re dating her? She’s cool or whatever.” Solid said feeling happy his brother is finding happiness just as he should and his other siblings as well. “ You’re with someone that could totally kick your ass. Don’t ruin it. She’s a lovely, strong and smart woman. I like her for you Nozel.” Nebra said, patting his back then ran along to her room. “Goodnight brother.” Solid said and left for his room. 

You and Nozel do end up in a relationship. The way he ask you to be his girlfriend didn’t go as planned. The strong wind blew the balloons away and the cake somehow ended up on his face and shirt but the 1st gift was already inside hidden in Leopold the love whisperer’s closet. A kitten with cute outfits and a large lion decorated bed for him to sleep on. He got you a promise ring(looks more like a wedding ring). It had a purple tourmaline stone with diamonds surrounding it. He balanced the cake with his left hand and took out the ring from his pocket showing it to you.“ W-Will you be my Lady, Y/n?” he asked you. You have him a peck on the cheek tasting the frosting. “Mmm yummy and Yes Nozel. I’d love to be yours.” you replied giggling at how messy he was. Nozel was thankful that he had frosting on his face to cover his blush. He put the ring on as one where the engagement ring would go on. This ring is more as a pre engagement and both of you understood that. Fuegoleon got a photo of that. “We’re putting that in a scrapbook,”Mereoleona said. “ No you’re not.” Nozel said to Mereoleon. “ b-but Nozel I was planning to make a scrapbook of our adventure.” you said with a pouty face. “Alright darling, anything for you.” he replied and pressed a peck on your cheek. “They’re getting married. I know it.” Leo said. Fuegoleon nodded. “ It’s not going to be easy letting go..” Fuegoleon said. “I know big brother. I love our sisters too.” Leo said, trying to hold his tears back. “ Leo, it's okay to cry.” Fuegoleon said, rubbing his back. Leo held onto his brother's robe and cried. Fuegoleon gave him a hug. You saw and rushed over with Nozel and Mereoleona behind you. “What’s going on? Leo, are you hurt?” you asked. He clinged onto you. “ You’re marrying Nozel!!” he cried. You held him. “You’re such a baby Leopold. Even when I’m married I won’t push you aside, dummy.” you smiled at him as you let go. “Okay. You better not.” he replied smiling. “ I promise I won't.” you replied. “ I plan on going on boy trips with you and Fuegoleon so I hope you are up for that.” Nozel said ruffling his hair. “ Hell yes!! Let's do it!!” Leo exclaimed. 

“ I love you guys very much.” You said it out loud. “ We love you too.” they all said. 

I TAKE REQUESTS!!!

ੈ‧₊˚ 𝐀𝐇, 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐆 𝐋𝐎𝐕𝐄!

༊*·˚ It's Leopold's birthday and the day of his Coming of Age Banquet. After three years of being together you're both finally adults! The two of you spent the banquet lost in each others embrace, and stay that way long after its over. When your dance nears it's end the two of you begin to explore each other more, ad not in an innocent way. (Ps. I suck at writing summaries :p)

˗ˏˋAlso includes´ˎ˗ Spoken Consent! (Queen shit), lots of fluff, very very sweet.

: ̗̀➛I was listening to this while I wrote this.

His heart is hammering in his chest, the thought makes your tummy flutter. Even after three years of dating 𝐋𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐝 still gets nervous when he's close to you like this. Looking up at him you can't help but smile, he'd grown to be handsome young man. Man. That's right, your sweet boy friend is a man now, he's officially 18.

You're pulled from your thoughts as 𝐋𝐞𝐨 dips you down, his hand cradling your back as you dance across the ballroom floor. His coming of age banquet ended hours ago with only the two of you still remaining but the music still played, though now the candles burned low, leaving the room dimly lit. The ballroom left a mess, gift wrapping, wine glasses, and platters of food scattered across the hall. Yet you two still danced, lost in each others embrace. It's like time stopped for the two of you, for two hearts that beat in a harmony for each other.

When 𝐋𝐞𝐨 pulls you back to his chest you let go of his hands, instead standing on your tip toes and wrapping your arms around his neck. He seems to understand as he leans down, both of his arms fall to your waist, his feet swaying the two of you side to side as he presses his forehead to your own. You close your eyes basking in the gloriousness of it all, nothing could be more perfect than this, than him.

When your eyes open again you find 𝐋𝐞𝐨 staring at you. The loving look in his eyes makes your heart buzz in your chest. You leaned closer to him, ghosting your lips over his own, smiling when he chased the kiss. His slightly chapped lips pressed against your own with such fervor it left your head spinning. His warm tongue slipping into your mouth and dancing with your own. Before too long he took your tongue into his mouth sucking on it gently. The sight was nothing short of erotic and it left your heart pounding almost violently in your chest. Even more so when 𝐋𝐞𝐨's lips slipped from your own down to your neck, sucking pretty purple bruises into the delicate skin there.

A soft sigh escaped your mouth as you tilted your head to the side, giving him more room to work with. You let yourself bask in the feeling of 𝐋𝐞𝐨's affections as his tongue peeked out of his mouth, slowly licking a line down to your breasts. You flinched in surprise when you felt one of his hands begin unlacing your dress. Looking back down at him you could see the raw hunger in his eyes and feel the warmth gathering below your belly right before his recaptured your lips with his own. Slipping out of your high heels you deepened the kiss, letting your tongue dance with his once more.

When his hands got to the last lace of your dress he broke the kiss, his eyes looking to you for permission to remove the gown. Your shy nod was all he needed to drop the silks from your body, leaving only the tight corset and your panties to cover your figure. He wasted no time continuing his assault on your neck, making sure there was no way you'd be able to hide them tomorrow. You were pretty sure he hadn't even thought about that, too lost in marking you as his to consider the aftermath of your rendezvous. Especially if his older brother saw them. Fuegoleon still saw 𝐋𝐞𝐨 as his sweet innocent little brother so you can only imagine what he'd say if he saw you, Leo's girlfriend, covered in hickies. You're sure his reaction would be nothing short of hysterical. But you couldn't find on yourself to tell him to stop, not when you were so focused on the feeling of his big hands pawing at your clothed breasts.

Your thoughts were interrupted by one of 𝐋𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐝's warm hands traveling to the back of your corset, and the other to the hem of your panties. "C-Can I take them off? Please baby? I'll make you feel so good. I promise!" The desperation in his voice had your tummy doing flips but you couldn't say yes. yet.

"Not here, 𝐋𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐝. Lets go back to your room, I'd like to avoid any unwanted interruptions." He looked a little disappointed, but it faded quickly as he slipped his long, red cape off his shoulders and over your own before picking you up into his strong arms. Quickly but quietly he carried you to his room, setting you down on his plush mattress. You let yourself sink into the deep-red, satin bedding which cradled you gently while you watched 𝐋𝐞𝐨 strip himself of the luxurious suit you'd chosen for him, for this occasion. By the time he crawled on top of you, he was bare before you and you were even needier than before.

"Can I take them off now? I wanna see you baby. All of you. Pretty please?" The way 𝐋𝐞𝐨 pleaded with you had you growing wetter, god he sounded so hot when he begged. You, again, gave a shy nod before flipping over and propping yourself up on your elbows. Wasting no time, he got to work untying the laces on your corset, pressing gentle kisses to your shoulder every now and again as he worked.

When 𝐋𝐞𝐨 untied the last lacing you tried to shuffle out of it but, he stopped you. "Turn around baby, wanna see your pretty tits." You blush at his words but obey nevertheless, turning over and laying on your back. Licking his lips, he slides the loose corset up and over your head, groaning at the way your breasts jiggle as they're freed from the constricting material.

Then, without warning 𝐋𝐞𝐨 attaches himself to one of your pebbling nipples. The sudden, unexpected feeling of his warm tongue on your sensitive tits has you moaning into the back of one of your hands, the other burying itself into his hair, tugging gently on the roots. You can feel goosebumps rising on your skin as one of his hands slowly slides down towards your panties. He looks up at you, asking for permission once more, but this time he doesn't take your half-assed nod as an answer.

"I wanna hear you say it, baby. Tell me you want this, that you want me." His voice was low and husky as he whispered in your ear, his warm breath tickling your neck.

Cupping his cheeks in the palm of your hands you pull his face close to yours, his lips mere inches from your own. "I want you, 𝐋𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐕��𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧. I want to be yours, and for you to be mine. I want you to take me, and for us to be one." Your voice wavered towards the end of your confession, the intimacy of the moment flooding you with warm emotions. The look on his face told you he was feeling the same way, and your suspicions were confirmed when he kissed you.

The kiss was sloppy and rushed but it was still perfect, because it was him. When you parted, both of you were panting loudly, out of breath from the passionate kiss. But, with one final peck to your lips, 𝐋𝐞𝐨 began kissing down your body again, taking his time to worship every inch of your skin. Then, gently, he slid his finger under your panties, gripping the hem of them delicately. With a comforting kiss to your navel, he slowly slid your panties off before tossing to the floor.

You felt your face grow red as 𝐋𝐞𝐨 sat up from where he was on top of you, admiring your body with a look of awe on his face. Gently, his rough hands traveled your body, just taking in your beauty. Then, he took one last look at your face before he backed off of you, grabbing your hips carefully and pulling you to the edge of the bed. For a moment you were confused, but the realization hit you as he kneeled on the floor in front of the bed.

"L-𝐋𝐞𝐨 don't do th- mmh!", you were cut off by a moan as he licked a long stripe through your folds. You could feel your back arch as he continued to lap at your clit, the stimulation sending shocks of pleasure through your entire body. One of your hands buried itself in his hair, the other covering your mouth, desperately trying to muffle your moans. Gently, he brought his thumb to your clit, rubbing small circles on the little button before burying his tongue in your sopping cunt.

Your eyes rolled back, the feeling of his warm muscle wiggling around inside of you was enough to make you go dumb. 𝐋𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐝 groaned as he basked in the taste of your juices bursting on his tongue. Loud squelching filled the room as he messily tongue fucked you towards your high. You tried so hard to muffle the lewd moans that escaped your mouth but it your attempts were fruitless, especially when the sounds your pussy was making were just as loud. Whines began escaped your puffy lips as you got closer and closer to your high, your resolve dwindling more and more with every passing moment.

Suddenly your entire body contracts, and your mind goes blank as a blanket of euphoria crashes over you. You feel 𝐋𝐞𝐨's left hand pin your hips down to the bed before one of his fingers pushes into your warm cunt. Tears roll down your face from the overstimulation as he pumps his finger in and out of your gummy walls. Before you know it he's adding a second finger, and then a third, until he's satisfied with how stretched out you are.

Then he's crawling back on top of the bed. You can feel him plant a gentle kiss on your forehead before he picks you up into his arms. Then, crawling his knees towards the top of the bed. 𝐋𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐝 gently rests your head on the pillows before laying you down completely. He plants another kiss on your cheek before crawling between your spread legs. His big hands slide underneath your thighs, placing them over his shoulder before he leans down, whispering softly in your ear, "you 100 percent sure you want this?" You nod, a warm smile gracing your lips as you cup his face in your palms. "I wouldn't want to do this with anybody else, my love."

𝐋𝐞𝐨 feels his heart swell at your words, how did he get so lucky with you? With a final kiss on your left eyebrow he begins slowly pushing his already-hard-cock into your gummy cunt. You hear him groan as your hands gently grip his shoulders. He continues pushing into you until he's buried to the hilt inside your warm pussy. He pauses for a moment, drunk on the feeling of you, of him inside of you.

It isn't until you mumble a soft, "please", that he comes back to his senses. When he does though, he sets a slow pace, drawling his hips back and pushing back in, savoring the moment as much as possible. After a minute or two, he's picking up the pace, thrusting into with more fervor than before. You begin moaning again, that feeling of euphoria drawing closer and closer as 𝐋𝐞𝐨's big cock pounds into your pulsating cunt. "Mhhh, Leo. Fuck, please!" You're so close to cumming, so close to that slice of heaven when you feel your heart drop and you blood run cold.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"𝐋𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐕𝐞𝐫𝐦𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐨𝐧! Open this damn door at once!" This booming voice of Fuegoleon sent both of you into panic mode. What was a romantic night of love making, had turned into the two of you trying to get dressed in a hurry without even a moments notice. You slipped your underwear on, desperately trying to find your dress. Then, the realization hit you like a cold bucket of water, your dress was in the ballroom. You turned to look at 𝐋𝐞𝐨, but the look in his eyes told you he'd realized it too. Rushing to his armoire he grabbed a T-shirt and some pants he'd outgrown ages ago and tossed them to you.

By the time the two of you opened the door it'd been a good 5 minutes, but whether it'd been 5 minutes or 5 hours no amount of time would prepare for the pure mortification you felt in this moment. Fuegoleon, your captain was glaring at you like you'd just killed his dog with your dress in his hand, and Mereoleona, the strongest woman you'd ever met, was laughing her ass off behind him.

After 2 painfully long minutes of silence Fuegoleon spoke while tossing you your dress, " I trust that you both know how much trouble you're in." You both nodded too scared to speak, as he stood there staring angrily at both of you. Sure, it was going to suck later, but you didn't regret what you and 𝐋𝐞𝐨𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐝 shared, not one bit. Even if you weren't able to finish, just the feeling of being one with him was enough for you.

An Uncle's Worry

Leopold Vermillion x Reader

Tags: water magic user, Leo loses control for just a second, accidentally starts a fire in the hospital,mention of childbirth, he calls you star

A/n: I think Leo is so underrated. He deserves all the good things in the world.

@jellystar-star

“What if something goes wrong? What if something happens to either of them?” Leo throws his hands up in the air as he paces across the room. I look from Leo to the doors where my brother in law and sister in law were behind.

“Leo, my lion, please come sit down. Pacing won’t solve anything.” I hold my hand out. Leo takes my hand, sitting in the chair next to me. “I’m sorry, my star. I am just worried. What if something happens to either Indra or the baby. I can’t.” His voice cracks, legs bouncing. The smell of burning furniture fills the room.

“Leo!” He pulls me across the room, away from the smoking furniture. “Shit. I am so sorry.” I blast a water bubble over the chair, drenching the fire before it could spread. “It’s okay.” I whisper, pulling him into a tight hug. “My light, calm down.”

An hour passes before either of us move. Fuegoleon pushes the door open with a wide smile. “She’s here!” Leo rushes to his brother, hugging him tightly. I join them, asking how Indra is. “She’s great. Exhausted but good. Both of them are sleeping at the moment.” Fuegoleon frowns, looking past us. “Um, why is the chair burnt?”

Fairy's Tale

A/n: It's been so longggg but I've decided to pick this series up again so stay tuned for more updates in the future. This is quite short 'cause I wanted to slowly get back to it tho

Chapter 3: Crystal and Him

It looks like he’s trying to come up with something, some kind of excuse. (y/n)’s looking at him, the anger on her face is slowly but surely disappearing. (y/n) is trying to calm herself, not wanting to appear unpleased to someone who she has just met and someone who offered to take her on a tour around.

“Are you going to send someone over?”- she asks.

“Of course, a Magic Knight Captain never goes against their word, Lady (y/n)”- he said - “but I didn’t say why I would send my people over. Don’t worry, I’ll make sure the owner wishes he never even tried to scam people.” 

Fuegoleon said with an assuring smile.

‘I wonder what he meant by that’ - (y/n) thinks, still walking side by side with the red haired man. 

As if he has the power to read her mind, Fuegoleon said “I have already sent Knights to take care of the man, don’t you worry.”

‘Oh..’ - ran through her mind.

“Then, why didn’t you just arrest the owner right back there?” - (Y/n) asks, clearly not understanding Fuegoleon’s reasons.

“Well, it is true that I’m the Crimson Lion’s Captain, yet that doesn’t mean I should act impulsively. It’s not that I’m not trusting you, It’s just a part of my duty to certify a lot of information before arresting somebody. I hope you can understand why I choose to act like that” - He answered thoroughly.

(Y/n) let out a small hum, not saying anything further. 

‘Humans don’t seem as bad as I’ve expected. Still…When is he going to let me go?!!?’ 

“Oh! My, it’s getting late, isn’t it? It looks like I’ve taken your whole day. That’s quite rude of me, please allow me to see you back to your place miss (Y/n).” - Fuegoleon offers.

If she agrees, not only does he get to know where she lives for future precaution but he will have time to take care of the crystal shop’s owner. And luckily for him, not thinking much, (Y/n) agreed.

And their first time meeting comes to an end with them not knowing this will become a memorable story for the two in the future.

I want to go to Heart

Leopold has been living his entire life in Clover as one of its royals, but he's struggling to feel good enough as a mage, which is why he wishes to go to Heart and learn from someone else. Maybe they'd be able to help him on his journey of betterment. But he needs to tell his siblings that he wants to do this. Characters: Leopold Vermillion, Fuegoleon Vermillion & Mereoleona Vermillion Genre: General-fluff Fanfic type: Oneshot Warnings: None, canon typical Length: ~1.8k

“I want to go to Heart.”

Such a blunt statement, spoken at dinner, without a word of warning before it, by none other than Leopold Vermillion. And it left his siblings looking at him in silence.

They didn’t have stern or disapproving expressions, nor did they look particularly surprised. In fact, Leo, despite having known them all his life, couldn’t read those expressions.

But he wouldn’t have blamed them for being taken aback, because to them it might have seemed like such a surprising decision and declaration to make, while Leo, he had been thinking about it for quite some time. And now that he had an opportunity to do something like this, like Mimosa had already before him, why wouldn’t he take up on the opportunity?

“You want to go to Heart?” Mereoleona was the first to ask after a moment of silence.

“Yes.” Leo replied with eyes that flickered ever so slightly as he looked straight ahead of himself. “Which! I mean, I know that I’m not adventurous like you, aneue. I couldn’t go into the wilderness for months and hunt boars for days and train the way you do. But it works for you! You’re great! The strongest mage I know, and I look up to you, but it’s…” he trailed off. “And aniue,” he continued, “it’s not that I wouldn’t appreciate all that you’ve done for me. You’ve helped me with my studies and looked after me even with all your duties, but… I don’t… get all the books. And the theories and the … things…” he mumbled.

And the room fell back into silence.

It really wasn’t about Leo not admiring or appreciating his siblings. Not in the slightest. He still looked up to them, perhaps more than either of them might ever know.

“I saw Sister Theresa last month,” he sighed, rubbing the back of his head. “And she and I talked a bit… and she said something like… ‘I couldn’t train your brother the way your sister did. Not that I needed to train your sister a lot. She trained herself.’ And I… it made me think about how, if you couldn’t train in the same way, then maybe I can’t train in the same way either. So… I thought that maybe I should… I asked Sister Theresa if she would train me, but she said that she has her hands full with the orphanage.”

The more he talked, the more it seemed like he was unappreciative of the teachings and lessons he had received from his siblings. At least to his ears. But he still knew what he wanted.

He knew what he wanted, but wasn’t sure how to explain it, without sounding even more ungrateful. Which is why, the room stayed silent again, until Mereo sighed.

“You know, when you were a toddler, I wanted to throw you into a chasm and have you climb out by yourself. It’s how lions train their young,” she picked up the wine glass in front of her and took a sip. “He was against it,” she nodded to Fuegoleon.

“It would simply have been too harsh.”

“Maybe. In retrospect.” She reluctantly agreed with a glance to Fuegoleon. “But I did take you, both, out on that day to a gorge, fully intending to make you perform the test.”

Leo wasn’t quite sure why aneue was telling this story to him, but he didn’t want to interrupt either.

“However, it wasn’t my intention to get rid of you,” she said with a tone that was serious and definite. “I intended you to pass the test.”

“He was three,” Fuegoleon noted.

“My brothers are not weak!” She looked at Fuegoleon from the other side of the table, with a stern expression and a tone to match. “But I may have expected too much too soon,” she shrugged, swaying a bit on his side of reasoning. “The point still stands,” she turned back to Leo, “my brothers are not weak. Neither of you.”

And Leo… he wasn’t sure if he had ever heard …anything like that from aneue. Her giving praise or recognition in such a way, spoken out as she thought it.

“What aneue means to say is,” Fuegoleon continued, “that we don’t think less of you for seeking another tutor. The reasoning behind the decision is logical, and each one of us must find their own path as a knight. As long as your heart is true and you give it all, there’s a lesson to be learned. Even in every defeat, there is something to be gained, just as there is knowledge down every road. If nothing else, then the knowledge that there is nothing else down that path. But it doesn’t make the path any less worth travelling.”

“Life is more interesting outside of the Capitol,” Mereoleona noted. “And will teach you more than the dust-bearded stock-ups this city is filled to the brim with.”

“Keep your mind open and your heart brave,” Fuegoleon continued, almost as if it was a goodbye there and then, while it wasn’t.

“You’re… not upset?” Leo still needed to ask, because, he still wanted to make sure that there was no ill will in the air.

“We will be sad to see you go. Just as we are sad to see aneue go whenever she embarks on her exploits.”

“Show them what Vermillions of Clover kingdom are made of.”

“He’s not going there to start a fight, aneue.”

“He will finish one.”

“That is …not what I meant.”

“But it’s what I meant.”

The two older siblings stared each other from opposite sides of the table, perhaps a bit annoyed by one and another, but, Leo knew, perhaps better than anyone, that even if the two bickered and fought, they were always the first to jump into each other’s defence when there was a need.

Sure, they were capable of fighting their own battles, which was also known by both of them. But… they were always on the same side of the battlefield at the end of it.

Just a pair of lions roaring on top of each other; exercising their strength. That’s what it was. They were testing each other’s skills out. To make sure that the other wouldn’t be beaten down quite so easily.

It was something Leo had been left out of. Not that he necessarily wanted to get into a fist fight with either of them, but… it was a kind of an isolating experience. If he had to admit.

Though it wasn’t about not getting it. Aniue and aneue had been toddlers around the same time, and aneue had tugged aniue along on many adventures during their childhood. They had been playing in the same sandbox, so to say. While Leo had been in a new sandbox, a newer one.

Aniue and aneue had been fighting the world together ever since they were little, well, at least some. Though they had been quite independent from what Leo had understood. But they had also been on a common front. Whereas Leo had been someone to protect for the both of them. Which, again, wasn’t something Leo wouldn’t have appreciated.

He loved his siblings. They were people that he could always count on to have his back, and those who would be there to raise hell if something happened to him.

But… he wanted to be equal with them. He didn’t want to be someone to be guarded and protected. For once in his life, he wanted to protect too. And not be someone to be dragged along.

He wanted to pull his own weight.

‘Keep your heart courageous’ aniue would tell him, which wasn’t a bad statement. It wasn’t a bad encouragement or bad words to live by. But it was difficult while living in a kind of defeat. He just wasn’t as strong as aniue or aneue. He could understand why that was, but it didn’t make the feeling any lesser; the frustration of it.

And he was frustrated. He was hungry in a way only a young knight could be. He wanted to be better, and he yearned for that betterment. Even if it seemed to be hidden under mountains, bottoms of ravines, or in the petals of dandelions. And he was more than ready for it. He just didn’t know how to attain it with the tools he currently held.

The best Fire Mages of Clover Kingdom were, with the exception of Mother Theresa, in that room. But they were of little help to Leo anymore. They might just as well have been speaking in a language he didn’t understand when it came about mana and magic. Though aneue was much less about talking, and more about figuring it out as she went along, but that method wasn’t suitable for Leo either.

So, he’d have to find answers from elsewhere.

“So… I will go, to Heart,” he repeated. He had made up his mind, but this time, with the statement, he wore a smile. A soft, careful smile, because he knew that coming back home after the training would be easy. Or easier at least. His siblings wouldn’t be upset with him for favouring someone else’s teachings in place of theirs, but instead they’d be happy for his strength and overcome achievements.

Mereoleona smiled while bringing the wine glass back to her lips. It was a content smile. A pleased smiled. And … perhaps it was a proud smile.

Fuegoleon seemed content. He seemed happy; his supportive self. But overall Leo would have deemed him less expressive, which aniue was. He was a stoic man, whereas aneue was a lot of things, but stoic wasn’t one of them.

Leo nodded, more to himself than anyone else. But there was a strange feeling to it all. The moment, the knowledge that he would be undertaking a journey, a kind of an adventure, as just himself. It felt almost like a beginning of something, and he was standing right at the edge of the path, ready to take the first step.

There was fear in it. But it was the good kind of a fear. The kind that holds anticipation in itself and which is filled with an eager heart and a racing mind, but is coupled with a smile.

He would be able to do this.

He would do this.

He will do this.

He will become strong and capable, someone that his siblings, and, most importantly, he himself could be proud of. Now, he wasn’t sure if he was, proud, of himself.

But he would be.

Actually, he already was. He was proud of having made the decision, now he just had to stick to it. With a courageous heart, an open mind, and will to … finish a fight.

Leo sleeps so comfortably in his bed… For some reason, this morning was just extra comfortable… He can’t help but wanna sleep for longer than usual… But of course someone thinks differently.

“LEO! Get out of bed! We’re going!” His older sister’s loud voice gave Leo a headache.

“Huh…? Go where? What…?” Leo mumbled as he was still waking up… Ugh, he felt so hot and cold at the same time.

“What do you mean ‘go where’?! We’re going training!” And without another word, Leo was picked up by a flame paw and placed on his feet. He stumbled from the sudden dizziness and rubbed his eyes.

“Training…? But… I really don’t feel good…”

“Did I ask for you excuses? Don’t be weak! Your enemies won’t care how you’re feeling, now get dressed.” Mereoleona dismissed Leo completely and left the room.

Leopold sighed and sat down, even though he just slept, he’s still exhausted… This was supposed to be his day off from all of the tiring missions, but he guessed not… He’s usually always down for training, but this was just annoying… All he really wants to do is go back to sleep…

Just like that she’s gone, and he’s given no time to even eat breakfast… Knowing her, Fuegoleon has probably been roped into this too.

Leo loves going out on training trips with his siblings… but he feels like his head is gonna explode. Leo rests his head on his pillow… a few moments won’t hurt… 

“LEO, WAKE UP! DID I SAY YOU COULD SLEEP?!” Leo sprang up, wide awake. He looks up at Mereoleona. 

“Sister? Um…”

“I said GET READY!”

Mereoleona once again puts Leo on his feet and gives him an intimidating look. “I just dozed off…”

“I don’t care, you have five minutes.” She says as she walked out of the room. Leo could feel her presence outside.

Leopold slugged over to his bathroom and splashed water on his face… His stomach really hurts… he feels like he’s gonna… ugh…

Leopold stumbled over to the toilet and threw up. How disgusting! It tastes horrible and now his throat burns…

Leopold sits still for a few moments before pulling himself up and grabbing his toothbrush. Was he sick? That wasn’t good… But he doesn’t want his siblings to worry… The training won’t last too long, right? He could bear it… surely he could. It’s just a day, he’ll be fine.

“About time.” Mereoleona says as Leo opens his bedroom door.

Leopold shrugs and he follows his older sister.

Leopold goes with Mereoleona outside where Fuegoleon was waiting, it seemed he had also been roped into this. “Sister, can I go back to bed? I really—“

“No excuses! If I wanted you to sleep, I would’ve had you sleep. The only way to get stronger is to train, don’t be lazy.” It seemed Mereoleona wasn’t going to let Leo get a word out… It really irritates Leo.

“Ah, I see you got Leo too…” Fuegoleon nearly sighs, but he doesn’t. As he looks at Leo, he notices the tired expression he wore. “Are you doing alright, Leo?”

“He’s fine, the training will wake him up.”

Leopold stares at Fuegoleon for a few moments and nods. “Yeah, I’m fine. Let’s just get going.” He supposed training would be good… not like he has a choice. Maybe he really just needs to be woken up and he’ll feel better?

“How did you sleep, Leo?” Fuegoleon questions. Leopold takes a moment to process the question before answering.

“I slept fine… before someone woke me up.”

Mereoleona shot a warning glare at him. “Do you plan on staying weak forever? Because sleeping isn’t how you get strong!”

Leo sighs and doesn’t bother arguing. Fuegoleon puts a hand on his shoulder. “Hey, you don’t have to come along if you don’t want to…”

“No, no… I want to, I’m just still waking up… Let’s just get to the place…!” Wherever it was…

Getting started through the infinite trees and Leo already feels his stomach twisting. Was he gonna throw up? No… He’s not that sick, is he? It’s better to not make his siblings worry…

Leo’s legs felt heavier with each step he took… And his breath was shallow and his head was throbbing… Not to mention this overwhelming heat! Why was it so hot outside?! He didn’t understand why the sun had to be so blazing hot during the summer. Stupid summer…!

He feels so weak, maybe he should’ve eaten something… And he’s really thirsty too… Did they bring water? Ugh, he feels so nauseous… He wants to throw up right now… Why couldn’t he have just stayed in bed? He really wished Mereoleona could be easier on him for once… this treatment can get really stressful sometimes…

They were quiet as they walked down the path for a short while before Fuegoleon spoke up. “So where do you have us off to now, sister?”

“It’s a surprise.”

Fuegoleon raises an eyebrow, his interest piqued. “Oh, really? Then I look forward to seeing what it is… Hey, is Leo doing alright?”

Mereoleona tilted her head. “What do you mean?”

“He just looks a little off… How was he this morning?”

Mereoleona groaned in annoyance. “Ugh, that kid is always complaining. He kept going on about how he doesn’t feel good.”

Fuegoleon turns his head to her. “He doesn’t feel good? We’re still close to home, maybe we should go back and—“

“He’s fine! Just being dramatic, what’s a little cold on a battlefield?” She says with a scoff.

Fuegoleon glanced back to Leo, who followed closely behind them, nodding off to sleep as he walked. “Yes, but we aren’t on the battlefield right now, Mereoleona. You’re far too hard on Leo… If you do this too much, it’ll just slow his progress.”

Mereoleona shrugged. “He looks fine to me.”

“It’s important for people to get the rest they need… Did he say he actually wanted to go when you woke him up?” Fuegoleon asked Mereoleona with a serious look.

Mereoleona rolled her eyes. “It doesn’t matter, you’re far too serious. How is he to get stronger if he doesn’t actually train? If anything, you’re too soft on him.”

Fuegoleon could feel himself getting a little irritated. Mereoloena was missing the whole point he was trying to make. “You’re missing the point. It’s not healthy for him if you keep doing this.”

“I’m just— Oh, would you look at that? I think I just found our lunch!“

Fuegoleon followed Mereoleona’s gaze and they saw a flame boar.

“So it seems…”

Leopold rubs his eyes and sees the boar, he feels nauseous by the thought of eating it.

“I’ll leave it to you then.” Fuegoleon tells her. Mereoleona nods and goes on to chase after it.

A boat without the proper seasonings was plain and boring, but it was the best they got during these adventures. Mereoleona loves making everything the most challenging it could be.

“Leo, are you not gonna eat?” Fuegoleon asked with a tint of concern in his voice. Leo was just sort of staring at his food with a grossed out expression.

“Um… no, I’m not hungry.” He replies. Fuegoleon raises an eyebrow.

“You’re usually always hungry… and you should eat.” Fuegoleon suggests, Mereoleona eyes the plate.

Leopold shook his head. “I’ll eat later…”

Mereoleona takes Leo’s food. “If you’re not gonna eat it, I am.” Leo doesn’t argue.

Fuegoleon couldn’t help but feel worried. Leo really doesn’t look like he’s doing too good. He’s pale and his eyes looked more dull than usual… Maybe it’s his instinct as an older brother, but he couldn’t help but feel frustrated with Mereoleona that he made him come with this condition.

“Sister, I think we should go home.” Fuegoleon states. Mereoleona snapped her head towards Fuegoleon.

“Now why would we do that?”

Fuegoleon sighs with how oblivious Mereoleona was. “Because Leo is sick. We can save training for another day.” 

Mereoleona shook her head and laughed. “Like a measly sickness will stop him! Do you hear yourself? If he can’t handle a little sickness, then—“

“Mereoleona…” Fuegoleon warned. Leo was already lagging behind, could she not see that?

“What?” She didn’t like being interrupted.

Fuegoleon spoke seriously. “Listen, not everyone is as strong as you or me. Leo is still young, he’s still developing… He might be a strong fighter, but that doesn’t mean his body is. A sickness to you might not be much, but to him it could be worse… It also means his body can handle as much as us. We’re experienced mages, considered the best in the kingdom, we are adults. Leo is still a teenager and he’s not the same as us… He needs the proper rest.” Fuegoleon hoped that his words weren’t going in one ear and out the other… 

Mereoleona was about to reply with an annoyed response when they heard something from behind them.

Thud

Huh? That noise… that thud… Fuegoleon and Mereoleona both stopped their bickering as they turned around behind them and saw Leo passed out on the ground. Fuegoleon immediately rushed to his side. 

“Leo? Leo, are you alright?” Fuegoleon flipped Leo over and put a hand to his forehead. “He has a fever.”

Mereoleona stood there, silent…

She didn’t actually think Leo felt that bad to the point he’d pass out… Why didn’t he say so?! Well… suppose he did… but he… Maybe Mereoleona should’ve paid more attention?

Was he really that exhausted to this point? That’s stupid. He should be able to deal with a little fever…! Mereoleona isn’t that hard on Leo, she’s just building character.

However… causing him to pass out on the ground wasn’t really building character…

Ugh, how annoying…

Fuegoleon picked up Leo, carrying him on his back. “Come on, we’re going back.”

“What?”

“Leo is in no condition for any training. We’ll just have to save it for another day. Sorry, sister.” Fuegoleon said as he started to make he way back to where they came from.

Mereoleona gazes at her little brother’s weak form and sighs in defeat. “Fine…”

Fuegoleon walks into Leo’s room with a small tray and a bucket of cold water as he sits beside Leo’s bed. He sets the tray down and gently shakes Leo awake. “Hey…”

Leo cracks his eyes open and groans in pain.

“Here, drink this…” Fuegoleon gave Leo a small cup of liquid.

“Ew…” Leo mutters as he drinks the medicine.

“I know… take some pills and here’s some water…” Fuegoleon gestures to the tray where he had the necessary things.

Leopold covered his eyes with his hand. The room was too bright. Fuegoleon notices and closes the blinds. “So… you didn’t tell me you were sick.”

Leopold shrugged. “I didn’t think it was that bad… and I tried to tell Mereoleona, but—“

“You told Mereoleona and thought she’d let you off the hook?” Fuegoleon jokes. Leo chuckled and coughed, his throat dry.

“I guess it was a dumb thought… I should’ve told you.”

Fuegoleon nodded. “Yes, you could’ve… but you just need to take care of yourself more. You have the flu.”

“I have the flu?” Leo repeats. Fuegoleon nods in confirmation.

“Yes, and it’s that much more important that you’re sure to rest… putting your body into overdrive is the last thing you want to do.”

“I know, but…” Leo trails off.

“Listen, I know you want to get stronger and Mereoleona is the strongest out there right now�� but her methods aren’t suited for everyone. She’s just oblivious to exactly how rough her methods can be.” Fuegoleon explains with his usual inspirational voice.

Leo was quick to shut that off. “No! It’s not too rough! I really do get stronger when she trains me, I was just… tired today…”

“Tired?”

Leo is silent for a few moments. “I’m sorry.”

Fuegoleon tilts his head. “For what?”

Leo’s head sinks and he lays back. “For making you guys have to stop the training early.”

Fuegoleon shook his head with a reassuring smile. “Don’t worry about it, missing one day of training isn’t the end of the world. Plus, I think Mereoleona is the only one who really cares about it that much.”

“Ugh… I’m tired… I feel like I’m gonna throw up…” Leo complains as he rests his arm over his eyes.

“Aw, I’m sorry. I’ll give you the week off. Just be sure to drink water, take your medicine and rest and you should be fine after a few days, maybe a week at most. You’re strong.”

Leo nods and falls asleep soon after.

Fuegoleon stands up and walks out of Leo’s room. “So… you heard that?” He asks.

Mereoleona nods her head. “Yes.”

“Do you understand?”

She rolls her eyes and walks off. “Yeah, whatever.”

The next few days went by fine. Leo slept, took his medicine, and Fuegoleon stopped by whenever he had the chance. It’s been 5 days and Leo was feeling a little bit better.

Leo still felt a little bit guilty about missing out on that training… He wants to make up for it. Maybe he should try training now! He’s feeling like he has enough energy for a little bit of training…

Leo sat up and got dressed before grabbing his grimoire and heading outside.

Mereoleona heard noises… like mana and ruckus. She follows the noise down the hall and it leads her outside. That’s when she spots her little brother in the middle of a training session… What the hell was he doing?! He looks like he’s about to faint, that’s no condition to train in.

“Leo!”

Leopold froze at the shout and snapped his head in Mereoleona’s direction. “Oh, sister, what’re you—“

Mereoleona’s fire paw lifts him up. “What do you think you’re doing?”

“I-I’m training…?”

Mereoleona groaned in irritation and looked at him with disbelief. “I’m not talking about that! I’m saying what are you doing?! You’re sick, you shouldn’t be training.”

“But… you said you get stronger from training?”

“Not when you’re sick! Are you stupid?” Mereoleona scolds him.

“You told me that didn’t matter!” Leo argued.

Mereoleona sighed and calmed down. She supposed she did teach him that… Out of everything she’s taught him, this is what stuck? Is she the reason Leo overworks himself so often?

Maybe Fuegoleon was right… Is she too hard on Leo? Leo’s training himself to almost pass out because that’s what she taught him.

“Just come with me, you’re going back to bed.”

Mereoleona felt better about the situation once Leo was back in his bed. “So… training while you’re sick…”

Leo nods. “You taught me that I should be able to deal with things like that…”

Mereoloena leans against Leo’s wardrobe. “How do you feel when I train you?”

Leopold tilts his head and he gives his sister a look of confusion. “Huh? What kind of question is that?”

“Just answer it.”

Leopold thinks to himself for a few moments. “Um… I get stronger?”

“That’s not what I meant.”

Leo was quiet for a moment. “Oh, you mean like… emotionally? Well, you stress me out a lot… since it’s usually pretty intense.” He finally answers, unsure of how she’d react.

“…How stressed?”

Leo wasn’t sure if there were any right or wrong answers here… “Mereoleona, you know I’m fine, right? It’s not like you’ve been hurting me or anyth—“

“I wasn’t saying that! I don’t care, I’m just curious…”

Leo doesn’t believe he’s ever felt so confused in his life. What the heck was she trying to ask him? “I mean… sometimes I feel like you don’t care about me that much.”

Mereoleona looked mad at that reply, Leo opened his mouth to speak, but Mereoleona cut him off. “I do, huh?”

“Uh…”

“Jeez… you’re acting like I’m gonna punch you for no reason… Is that what you think of me?” She sighs and doesn’t take her eyes off of Leopold.

“I know you care about me, I guess I just… it’s just been stressful lately…”

Leo felt his palms start sweating from that indecipherable glare his older sister had locked on him.

“Then just say so next time…”

Leo’s eyes get wider as his head perks up, seemingly not expecting such a simple and calm answer.

“Wait, what? So—“

“Just don’t annoy me about it too often!” Mereoleona abruptly walks out of the room. Guess that conversation was over…?

Leo didn’t know, nor did he have the energy to continue looking into it. He lays back down and closes his eyes.

“Hey.” Leo’s dreams fade as he starts to pick up on a voice… “Hey!”

Leo opens his eyes and looks at the source… Mereoleona. Leo glances out the window and looks at the beautiful autumn leaves. He liked fall, it wasn’t too cold or hot. “What is it…?”

“Me and Fuegoleon are going out to train, are you gonna come with?” She asks Leo.

Leo rubs his eyes… training… Oh! “Oh, you guys are going out to train? Sure! Just give me a few minutes.”

Mereoleona nods. “Alright, take as long as you need… but not too long.” She mutters as she leaves.

Leo very much enjoys not being yelled awake by his sister less often than a few months ago…

“Take as long as I need… I just know she’s lying…”

[eliaah]

they realize their feelings for you !

characters: yami sukehiro, fuegoleon vermillion, nozel silva, & william vangeance

tags: fluff , multi characters x fem reader

a/n: i made this one based on that brigade question like what's their type? yami = someone strong | fuegoleon = someone passionate | nozel = someone who can give their all to the house silva | william = someone who doesn't bother the face of his. I don't know if all of these will be accurate but i tried my best !

💜 YAMI SUKEHIRO

It was another usual day at the Black Bulls' hideout, and as always, chaos was in full swing. Noelle and Asta were at it again, Magna and Luck were bickering over something that probably didn’t matter, and Vanessa was drinking alcohol like nothing was going on. Yami, however, was focused on you.

You were sparring with Gauche, and as usual, you were kicking ass. The way you fought, with that quiet intensity and controlled power, made him pause for a moment. You weren’t just strong, Yami had seen strength before, plenty of times, but with you, it wasn’t just about raw power. It was about the precision, the strategy, the way you carried yourself. You weren’t one to back down or second-guess yourself, and that was something he couldn’t help but admire.

When the spar ended, you wiped your brow, catching Yami’s eye from across the room. He had been watching you, and you knew it. But instead of looking away, you held his gaze, that confident, knowing smile spreading across your face.

Yami sighed and leaned back in his chair, trying to hide the sudden unease creeping in. "Oi." he called out, voice gruff. "Don’t go making those damn faces at me. It’s distracting."

You tilted your head slightly, a mischievous glint in your eyes. “Why? Is it too gorgeous?” you teased, clearly enjoying the effect you were having on him.

Yami scoffed, looking away quickly. “Tch. Just keep your face to yourself, alright?” he muttered, but even as the words left his mouth, he felt that tightness in his chest. That smile, that confidence, it wasn’t just the strength that had caught his attention anymore. It was everything about you.

You weren’t just a powerful member of his squad. You were something more. And that realization... hit him harder than he’d expected.

💜 FUEGOLEON VERMILLION

The Vermillion estate library was calm, its shelves lined with ancient tomes and the soft glow of sunlight filtering through the tall windows. You sat across from Leopold, a quill in hand as you carefully sketched a diagram to explain the finer points of mana stabilization. Leopold leaned forward, his expression intense as he tried to follow along.

“Focus here.” you said gently, pointing to a rune in the diagram. “This is where the mana flow converges. If you don’t stabilize it, the spell will collapse before it can take form.”

Leopold groaned, rubbing the back of his head. “You make it sound so easy, y/n. How do you even keep all this in your head?”

“It’s not about memorizing.” you said with a small smile. “It’s about understanding. Think of it like a puzzle, every piece has its place. You just have to figure out how they connect.”

Fuegoleon stood silently by the doorway, his arms crossed as he observed the two of you. He had only meant to check on Leopold’s progress, but once again, he found himself captivated by the way you carried yourself.

You weren’t just teaching Leopold spell theory, you were patient, encouraging, and passionate. It was clear in every word you spoke, every gesture you made. You cared deeply, not just about the results but about the process.

Leopold grinned as he tried again, his flames flickering to life. This time, the spell formed steadily, its edges sharp and controlled. “I did it!” he exclaimed, turning to you with wide eyes. “It actually worked!”

You beamed at him, clapping your hands lightly. “I knew you could do it! All it takes is focus and practice.”

Fuegoleon’s chest tightened. That smile of yours, so full of pride and warmth, it struck something deep within him. For a man who valued control and discipline, the intensity of his feelings for you caught him off guard. It was as if you had quietly set his heart ablaze, and he hadn’t noticed until the fire had consumed him completely.

When Leopold excused himself to test the spell further in the training grounds, you began tidying up the books and parchment scattered across the table. Fuegoleon stepped forward, clearing his throat softly.

“You’ve done excellent work with Leopold.” he said, his voice even yet warm.

You glanced up, startled by his presence, but your lips curved into a smile. “He’s a fast learner. He just needed a little guidance.”

Fuegoleon’s gaze lingered on you longer than he intended. “Your guidance is exceptional.” he said, stepping closer. “You have a gift for teaching, not just in what you know, but in how you inspire others. It is... rare.”

The sincerity in his tone made you pause, your hands stilling over the stack of papers. “That’s high praise coming from you, Captain.” you replied softly, a faint blush warming your cheeks.

He gave a small nod, his composure intact, though his thoughts were anything but. You aren't just intelligent or skilled, you're someone who lived with purpose, someone who gave everything their all. It was that fire in you, that unwavering passion, that he found himself drawn to in ways he hadn’t expected.

Fuegoleon had always believed in discipline, control, and focus. But now, standing here with you, he realized that no amount of discipline could quell the warmth growing in his chest. He admired you deeply, respected you completely, and, most surprising of all, cared for you in a way he hadn’t thought himself capable of.

When you gathered the last of the papers and stood, he stepped aside, his usual composure returning. “I’ll be outside.” he said, his tone steady despite the chaos in his chest. “Leopold will benefit from your guidance, as he always does.”

You smiled, brushing a strand of hair from your face. “Of course, Captain.”

As you walked past him, the faint scent of parchment and the subtle warmth of your magic lingering in the air, Fuegoleon couldn’t help but watch you go. He stood there for a moment, silent, letting the weight of his realization settle over him.

You aren't just someone he admired. You’re someone who had ignited something within him, something that burned brighter and fiercer than any flame he had ever conjured.

And for the first time, Fuegoleon allowed himself to hold on to that fire, even if only quietly.

💜 NOZEL SILVA

The halls of the Silva estate were peaceful, the soft sound of Nozel's footsteps echoing through the corridors as he walked quietly down to Noelle’s room. Nozel had been making his rounds, checking on his family’s well-being, when he heard something that made him pause, a small, melodic sound.

Laughter.

He didn’t often hear laughter within these stone walls, and the sound piqued his interest. Moving towards Noelle’s door, he listened for a moment, curious.

He quietly cracked the door open just enough to peek inside, and there he saw you, kneeling beside Noelle’s bed, reading her a story. Noelle, still a little child, looked up at you with wide eyes, her silver hair slightly disheveled as she grinned at something you’d said. You spoke with such a natural warmth, your voice soft and soothing as you held her attention.

“...And the knight swore to protect the kingdom, no matter the cost.” you said, your voice gentle, your words full of encouragement.

Noelle giggled softly. “You’re like that knight, y/n. Strong and brave!”

You smiled, your heart clearly fond of her. “Well, I’m glad you think so, Noelle. One day, you'll be like that knight too.”

The tenderness in your voice, the patience you showed as you tucked Noelle into bed and kissed her forehead, made Nozel pause. You were kind, more than just a caretaker, more than just someone who worked for House Silva. There was a quiet strength about you, a warmth that Noelle clearly felt.

You tucked the blanket around Noelle gently, whispering, “Sleep well, Noelle. I’ll see you in the morning.”

With that, you stood up and moved toward the door, careful not to disturb the little one’s slumber. Nozel, standing just outside, watched you as you quietly stepped away from the room, making sure everything was in order before leaving.

As you opened the door, you bumped into someone. You blinked in surprise, your eyes softening when you recognized him.

“Captain Silva.” you said with a warm smile, your voice calm. “I didn’t realize you were up this late.”

Nozel straightened slightly, his expression as composed as ever. “I came to check on Noelle.” he said, his tone even. “She seems... content.”

You nodded. “She’s been through a lot. I just wanted to make sure she had a peaceful night.”

Nozel’s eyes softened as he took a moment to truly observe you. You caught Nozel's attention, it was the way you carried yourself with such quiet dignity, the way you cared for Noelle with such genuine affection.

“Thank you.” he said, his voice more sincere than usual. “For everything you do for her. It’s... not easy to care for someone with such a spirited nature.”

You chuckled softly. “Noelle is strong. She just needs a little guidance and reassurance.”

Nozel nodded, his eyes lingering on you as he considered your words. You weren’t just fulfilling your duties, you were giving Noelle something she needed desperately, your unwavering support and care.

You gave him a polite smile before continuing on your way, your footsteps light as you disappeared down the hall. Nozel watched you for a moment, his mind wandering.

For all his discipline and control, he couldn’t ignore the way his heart felt a little lighter whenever he saw you. You had captured his attention not by your status or strength, but by the quiet, steadfast way you showed care for others, something he realized he respected deeply.

He stood in the hall for a long moment, his thoughts on you, before turning back to his duties. It was clear now that you were someone he couldn’t easily forget.

💜 WILLIAM VANGEANCE

The Golden Dawn headquarters was eerily quiet, bathed in the soft glow of the setting sun. Everyone had been sent out on missions, leaving the grand halls empty—except for one person.

William Vangeance sat alone in the library, surrounded by shelves of books and the faint scent of parchment. He exhaled, leaning back in his chair as he finally removed his mask, placing it carefully on the table. The air was warm, and without the suffocating weight of the mask, he could finally breathe freely.

He ran a hand over his face, fingers brushing the scars he rarely allowed anyone to see. This was a rare moment of solitude, one he thought would go uninterrupted.

But then, the door creaked open.

William turned sharply, his heart skipping a beat as his gaze landed on you.

You froze, standing in the doorway with a book in hand, your wide eyes meeting his.

“y/n.” he breathed, his voice barely above a whisper.

“Captain Vangeance?” you said, softly.

For a moment, neither of you moved. The warm hues of the setting sun streamed through the tall windows, casting a golden light on the two of you. William’s first instinct was to reach for his mask, but something about the way you were looking at him made him pause.

You didn’t flinch. Your expression didn’t shift into discomfort or pity. Instead, you stepped forward, setting your book down on the table.

“I’m sorry.” you said gently. “I didn’t mean to intrude. I thought everyone was out on missions.”

William’s throat tightened. “I… thought so too.”

You offered him a small smile, your gaze unwavering as you sat down across from him. “I came back early.” you explained, your tone casual, as if this moment wasn’t extraordinary. “I thought I’d relax here for a while. I didn’t realize you’d be here.”

He nodded, still unsure of what to say. His scarred face felt exposed, vulnerable, but you hadn’t reacted the way he had feared.

After a moment, you spoke again, your voice steady. “You know, this light suits you.”

William blinked, startled. “What?”

“The sunlight.” you said, gesturing to the way it caught the angles of his face. “It makes you look... peaceful.”

A lump formed in William’s throat as he studied you. There was no hesitation in your expression, no trace of the judgment he had grown accustomed to fearing. Instead, there was warmth, genuine and unyielding, in your gaze.

“You’re not bothered?” he asked quietly, his fingers brushing the edges of his mask.

“Why would I be?” you replied simply. “It’s just you, Captain Vangeance.”

It was such a simple statement, yet it held a weight that made William’s chest tighten. For so long, he had hidden behind the mask, letting others see only the perfect leader of the Golden Dawn. But here you were, looking at him as though the scars didn’t matter, as though he was just another person to you.

And in that moment, something shifted within him.

For someone who had always carried the burden of his dual existence, this newfound warmth and acceptance caught him off guard. He realized then how deeply your presence had come to mean to him. You aren't just another squad member. You're someone who saw beyond his scars, someone who didn’t let the world’s expectations dictate your view of him.

The setting sun bathed the room in golden light as you stood to return to the shelves, leaving William sitting in silence, his thoughts spiraling.

For the first time in a long while, his heart felt full—not with duty or burden, but with something far more profound.

rewatched black clover then saw your event and now i'm thinking how would Finral, Gauche and Leo introduce their fiance to their siblings. for the sake of this req let's say their siblings had no idea they were getting engaged (for Leo maybe his sis knew but brother didn't? idk i cant imagine neither of them knowing)

Ringtober Masterlist

Notes: sorry for the delay!

Warnings: n/a just fluff

Characters involved: Finral Roulacase, Gauche Adlai, Leopold Vermillion

Fem reader, you/yours

Finral Roulacase

His brother needs a minute.

Literally just points at Finral then you and goes you actually managed to convice her to fall for you?

Might make fun of Finral a bit but Finral can tell he's secretly happy for him.

Langris is more interested in the ring than you, he is glad to say that his brother has good taste in jewellery.

They end up discussing family matters after that and what's going to happen with certain pre established marriage agreements.

Overall Langris doesn't really care much, sure he's happy his brother found someone but it's kind of a 'meh' moment for him.

He isn't interested in getting to know you either, in his head you're like the Black Bulls—someone his brother likes but he doesn't particularly care for.

Don't expect to see much of him around either, although he does expect a wedding invite even if he might snark on about not attending.

He does in fact attend.

Gauche Adlai

His sister is so excited it's honestly adorable.

You've already met in the past since Gauche had to introduce the two most important girls in his life to each other, but she gets very excited at the prospect of having you as her future sister.

Gauche has to roam around with tissues because he keeps getting nosebleeds at the idea of the three of you living together like a happy lil family.

Once she finds our you're going to be her future sister in law his sister constantly asks about you when Gauche visits. He almost can't visit her without you because she sometimes seems sad and then Gauche feels very bad.

This one time the two of you got into a fight and she asked about you and told Gauche something along the lines of you better not take my sister away from me and to this day he does his best to never argue with you.

Overall your relationship is really sweet. Since Gauche is kind of like her father figure anyways you sort of become a maternal figure for her.

Leopold Vermillion

Fuegoleon is so genuinely surprised he doesn't even know how to react.

Their parents called all three children to the house for dinner which was surprising in itself, so when he sees you there he is pretty confused.

You're a close family friend, and ever since you were children it was sort of a given that Leo was yours and you were his. You two were just fated to be together.

But Fuegoleon presumed that his parents would at least give him of all people some forewarning before an engagement.

He ends up finding out that Leo actually proposed out of nowhere, you accepted and told both families a few days ago.

So why was Fuegoleon so late to the party?

His sister finds the entire situation funny and doesn't miss a beat before teasing Fuegoleon for being slow and not seeing the signs. Like how Leo suddenly decided to visit their grandfather (for a ring that was pre decided) the day he proposed.

Fuegoleon is honestly very pleased with the entire ordeal. You were always like a little sister to him anyways, but now that relationship is just solidified.

He does however tease Leo quite a bit about being a man and the responsibilities that come with marriage.

He's kind of surprised that Leo is going to be the first of the three of them to be married. That's Fuegoleon biggest concern rather than the sudden announcement.

Mereoleona definitely teases him about how their little brother has a better love life than him.

Concert

Fluffvember Day 7: Concert - Leopold Vermillion (f! reader) 

Summary: You're a classical violinist and tonight is your big debut at the Castle Town concert hall. Your long-time friend Leopold is in the audience, and he begins to see you in a whole new light after watching you achieve your biggest dream

Word Count: 1,825 

A/N: I’m probably a little biased because I am a classical violinist, but this was by far my favorite one to write so far this month! I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed writing it. The Max Bruch Violin Concerto no. 1 partly inspired this so if you would like to, listen to the first movement. 

masterlist 

----- 

You stood in the atrium of the concert hall, patrons, mostly upper crust and royalty, milling about and drinking before the event began. "Ugh Y/N, I don't know how you can stand going to these events. Everything is so stuffy, even the clothing." Your friend Leopold complained, pulling the collar of his dress shirt away from his neck. You rolled your eyes, at him lightly punching him in the arm, "Going to these events, is kind of my job you know. Plus, orchestra music isn't stuffy, you're just lame and have no taste." 

Leo was about to object but before he could do so a bell was rung and you had to dash off. "Sorry! That's my cue to go change, I'll see you after the concert okay?" You said apologetically, planting a chaste goodbye kiss on his cheek before disappearing into the crowd. The kiss was meant as a friendly gesture, nothing more, the two of you had grown up quite close after all, but nonetheless Leo was left standing there dumbstruck, hand lightly touching the place your lips had been a moment before. 

He gathered himself and entered the concert hall, heading for the Vermillion family box; he was a little nervous he had to admit, he was the sole Vermillion sibling here tonight and so a lot of eyes were on him. Fuegoleon was away on an important business matter and who knows where Mereoleona was, she usually couldn't be bothered to come to events like this, they were far too constricting for her wild nature. 

Even though Leo found these events stuffy, like most of his royal duties, he came tonight without much complaint because tonight would be the first time he would get to see you perform a concerto with an orchestra as large as this one. You had picked up the violin at an early age, and had been traveling the country playing at concert halls all over, but tonight would be your big debut on the Castle Town stage and Leo was excited. Not because he particularly enjoyed orchestral music like this, but because it was something you enjoyed.  Growing up, he had always admired the way your eyes sparkled as you talked about your dreams of someday playing on this stage, and here you were achieving the dream you had worked so hard for. 

The first piece was a long drawn out number that had him nearly falling asleep, Mimosa, his cousin, had to elbow him several times to keep him from snoring. He supposed he should have felt a bit sheepish, but you weren't onstage so he couldn't bring himself to care all that much. During intermission Mimosa turned to him excitedly, "Y/N is on next, isn't that so exciting?" He nodded, "Yeah! This is her big dream!" 

Intermission seemed to be over in a flash, the lights dimming and he waited with bated breath as the spotlight lit up the space you'd walk through shortly. When you appeared Leo felt his breath hitch, you were in a stunning turquoise dress, sparkling in the light that illuminated the stage. "Wow." Mimosa whispered, awestruck. He could only nod in agreement, the dress suited you perfectly, the perfect battle armor to conquer the stage tonight. 

When you'd told him about this concert a few weeks ago, it had taken everything in him not to launch himself across the table and wrap you up in a bear hug. Well, almost everything, despite him trying not to, he did it anyway, leaving you both grinning ear to ear and laughing with excitement.

The audience clapped and you shook hands with the conductor and the concertmaster then took up your post near the front of the stage. Leo remembered you mentioning that you were nervous about playing from memory, so he silently cheered you on, hoping you could hear him in your heart. 

As the timpani began playing, your eyes searched the audience, your hands were sweaty and your heart was pounding, you couldn't see the audience very well because of the spotlights but you knew there was a familiar head of red hair out in the crowd and that gave you comfort. The flutes and woodwinds came in next and you prepared to come in with your cadenza. 

From the second your first note reached his ears, to the second your last chord echoed through the hall Leo simply found himself unable to take his eyes off of you. Your notes were spellbinding, taking his breath away and telling a story with just sound, it was a language unlike any he had heard before. He had always admired you, your strength of character, your sense of humor, your honesty, brutal at times but that's definitely when he needed to hear it the most; but tonight, something tugged at his heartstrings and was rooting in his brain, and suddenly he saw you in a whole new light. 

When the concerto ended you were a panting mess, any trace of nervousness had evaporated as you reached the end, a beaming smile appeared on your face as you bowed, the roar of applause filling your ears. From somewhere in the crowd you heard a distinct whistle and you had to contain your laughter, that was definitely Leo. I guess he liked it then? That's fantastic!  You probably wouldn't admit this to anyone, but when you got up on this stage tonight you didn't care about all the opinions of the various noble folk and royalty that had attended, if you were being honest the most important, and perhaps the only opinion that mattered to you was Leopold's. 

You made your way to the atrium because you had to accept your congratulations from the audience members in person, it was simply good practice. Several people congratulated you, others noted that you played well even though you were not royalty, you took each comment with grace and a smile, praying that you'd be able to go home soon and celebrate as you wished to; perhaps with a long soak in the bath to ease your aching muscles.

 Leo and Mimosa appeared in the atrium, eyes scanning the room for a sign of you; Mimosa couldn't help but be amused by the way you both perked up as you caught sight of one another. Ahh, young love. She mused, then giggled to herself, who am I kidding? I'm young too. 

Leo made a beeline for you as soon as your current conversation ended and grabbed your hands with excitement. "Oh Y/N, that was so amazing, I could just kiss you right now!" He said, practically buzzing with energy. You deadpanned and he was about to pull away, but rather than pulling away as well you said, "Kiss me then." It was almost a challenge, and Leo backed down from it, suddenly hyper-aware of all the people watching you; he lost his nerve and decided to change the subject. 

"Do you--- do you need someone to come with you? To help carry your things?" He asked, nervous about even this small interaction for some reason. Mentally he kicked himself, usually, conversation was so easy with you, but now he was just a bumbling mess. Your face fell into a smile, "That would be lovely Leo." You led the way to the green room and greeted the other performers, thanking them for a job well done. As you packed your things, Leo couldn't help but notice the slight frown that twisted your features. "Are you alright?" he asked quietly. When you nodded he dropped the subject, opting instead to carry your things as he had promised. 

The atrium was empty when you emerged from the green room, and you found yourself in awkward silence with Leo. Secretly, you were disappointed that he hadn't taken you up on your challenge earlier and you didn't know how to feel about it. Do I really have feelings for him? Leo's thoughts seemed to be on the same track as yours as you exited the building into the night air.

 "Did you mean it?" "Mean what?" You asked, turning to face him; in an attempt to not misconstrue things you weren't going to answer unless he asked you exactly what was on his mind. A blush graced Leo's features and his heart was pounding in his head, "Did you actually want me to kiss you back there?" 

You tilted your head, trying to sort through your emotions so you could give him a straight answer. "I think so. I'm not really sure, I just, I said that without thinking and I'm not sure of what exactly I'm feeling right now." Leo gulped, trying to gather up the courage for his next question, "Do you… do you still want me to?" 

Your heart pounded in your chest as you nodded, eyes not leaving your friend for a second as he carefully set your things on the ground next to him. He wiped his sweaty palms on his pants and awkwardly grabbed your arms as he leaned in, the kiss was short and sweet, but it left you with an unsatisfied feeling and solidified in your mind that you did, in fact, want to kiss him. In fact, you wanted to kiss his stupid face again and again. 

Leo looked away awkwardly, wanting to kiss you again but not sure how to ask. Luckily he didn't have to, as you grabbed his shirt and pulled him in closer to you. "Do you want me to?" You asked breathlessly, you were so close you could feel each other's breaths on your lips. When he nodded you didn't hesitate, slamming your lips into his. 

Mimosa appeared from out of the concert hall, a mixture of wanting to roll her eyes and cheer seeping into her expression. "Took you guys long enough." She said, hands on her hips and looking away; she was happy for you both but the last thing she wanted to watch was your makeout session. 

The two of you jumped and pulled apart quickly at her sudden interjection. "What do you mean, took us long enough?" You asked, a little sheepish at the implication that she had known your feelings long before you had. "Don't worry about it. Want to go get some ice cream or something to go celebrate your big night?" You and Leo exchanged a glance, "Absolutely!" Mimosa led the way to the nearby ice cream shop, you and Leo trailing a little ways behind. 

"Was tonight exactly how you dreamed it would be?" He asked as you walked hand in hand. You shook your head and smiled at him, glancing at your intertwined hands, "Nope, it was even better." 

"Hurry up or I'll eat without you!" Mimosa yelled, interrupting your moment for a second time that night. You both chuckled and sped up to meet her at the door, filled with the feeling of a new chapter beginning. 

[thoughtfullyrainynightmare]

For the ask game, 🧡💚🤍 for Fuegoleon and Leopold 🥰

YAY! I get to start with Vermillions! ^^

Fuegoleon

💚-- General

He wears exclusively lavender scented hair oil, but to the particular scent he stumbled on by accident. The hair oil bottle caps had been accidentally switched at the store, and the morning he opened the bottle to use it, he did notice the scent, but was already running late, which is why he opted to use it regardless. And the scent wasn't unpleasant by any means either. So, by the time the day was done, he had concluded it to be a good scent, which is why he used the entire bottle, and based on it the store made a signature one for him, adding a little bit of richness to a custom made solution.

🧡-- Childhood/Backstory

Though Fuegoleon was a diligent student, up to the point where Theresa needed to keep him from exhausting himself, because she knew that it'd take time for him to grow, it got to Fue at times. Which is why he used to write a journal, in which there were also (though a bit clumsy) poems about his own emotions.

If he was asked about it, he'd quite simply say that it was for the sake of practicing his penmanship, with which it did help, but the real reason for him to keep it and write it, the diary and the poems, was to handle his own emotions. And it allowed him to identify and process his emotions very constructively, as well as better take an analytic approach to all situations.

🤍-- Fluff

He has all the birthdays and other important dates for his near and dear written in his calendar well in advance, as well as reminders a few weeks before so that he wouldn't miss the dates when they arrive. Partly it's about wanting to be prepared and have enough time to think about a thoughtful gift, but even if he wouldn't think about a gift to give, he wants to be sure to at least remember the date and be able to congratulate the person in question.

Leopold

💚-- General

There was a time when Leo did consider another job than a MK for himself. But this was kept to himself, because he felt that it was an expectation of the family (and public) for him to be a knight, much like all of his family.

He did want to have a job where he'd get to help people though, and he quite quickly realized that politics, as in purely just politics, weren't for him, so he relinquished that idea. And he realized that thought to be just his insecurity talking, since he was still quite unsure of his own abilities. But still, if he could work with knights, train them and be more on the field, rather than stuck in an office for the job he'll be doing, he'd be more happy than being an "pencil pusher". He'd not made for the indoors.

🧡-- Childhood/Backstory

The first Leo heard about the canyon where Mereo wanted to chuck him as a toddler, he snuck out during the night. He was 13 at the time, and had heard about it by chance, but he thought that Anieu and Aneue must've climbed out of it by themselves, so he should too. So, he descended down there through the safest route and climbed back up all by himself. It was the first time he felt really, genuinely, all around accomplished.

🤍-- Fluff

He is very well versed with "language of the flowers", so he's able to order bouquets and flowers for the birthdays and other celebration days for his family members if need be, or a potential spouse later on, that are extremely fitting. Most might be able to think of only romantic meanings for flowers, but Leo knows all platonic meanings too.

Your Arms’ Warmth (And The Way You Warm My Heart)

Here’s a fluffy Asta x Leo fic :)

The hammer… Ah, there it is! Leo reached over to the hammer and secured his tent into the ground. He repeated the process an extra three times before rising up and admiring the tent he had finished putting up.

“Leo! I see you’ve finished! Cool tent. But I finished first.” Asta says with a smile.

Leo looked over at Asta and his previous exhaustion immediately left his body. “What? No! I totally finished my tent first!”

Asta shook his head. “No, I—“

“Can you two be quiet? You’ll give me a headache.” A voice interrupted. The two boys looked over at Noelle who wore her usual scowl.

Mimosa and Yuno were standing a few feet behind her, staring at the two with a similar look. It seemed that their tents were almost finished.

When they had been planning their weekend camping trip, Noelle and Mimosa had decided that they might as well share so that they’d carry less. It was a rather good call.

The walk there took a while, and it was uphill too: an extra tent would’ve definitely made it more difficult. Though Asta probably would’ve taken it if Noelle or Mimosa were struggling with their bags.

One of the many things Leo could really appreciate about Asta. He bets that all of their bags combined had nothing on Asta. He’s seen Asta carry the heaviest things and not break sweat.

“Sorry.” Asta replied.

Leo looked into his tent. Yup… It was a tent. He picked up his bags and set his things up. It was kinda hot, but nothing that would be too bothersome… not to Leo at least. He can already hear Noelle complaining about both the heat and the bugs.

Leo climbs out of his tent and zips it up.

He glanced over at Asta’s tent and took a few steps towards it, peeking inside. “Hey, are you almost finished in here?“

Asta’s head perked up and he offered a kind smile. “Yeah! Almost done.”

“Cool! I was thinking about heading to the lake.” Leo said. Asta stood up and he looked more excited than before.

“The lake? That sounds fun! Let me put on my swimsuit.” Asta started to take off his shirt and get into his bag. Leo’s cheeks heat up a little bit and he couldn’t help but avert his eyes. He’s seen him shirtless before, but this just gave Leo a different feeling… One he couldn’t quite explain. He knew why, but not how…

“Okay… I’ll go tell everyone else then.” Leo muttered as he closed Asta’s tent. He let o it a long sigh and composed himself once again. Noelle and Mimosa were setting up chairs around the fire pit while Yuno was out of sight. He seemed to be in his tent.

“Hey, we’re about to head out to the lake if you guys wanna come!” Leo announced as he made his way to his own tent. Mimosa and Noelle looked up at him, then at each other.

“Oh, okay! We’ll get changed!” Mimosa replied.

Everyone emerged from their tents after getting into their swimsuits, Mimosa held the bag of towels.

“Yuno? Where’s your swimsuit?” Asta asked.

Leo tilted his head and followed Asta’s gaze to notice that Yuno, indeed, was not wearing a swimsuit.

“I’m good. I’ll stay here and make a fire.” He answered.

Asta shrugged. “Alright, suit yourself! C’mon, Leo!” Asta casually placed his hand on Leo’s shoulder, beginning to walk towards the lake. Leo felt as if Asta’s hand was melting into his skin… though he was unsure if it was something he felt or just wanted to feel…

Asta removed it after walking for a few minutes, and Leo immediately yearned for it back.

Everyone happily chatted down to the lake, Leo made sure to chime in every few minutes. Though if he was being quite honest, the conversation didn’t interest him much. He was more focused on trying to subtly move closer to Asta as they walked.

Leo is very aware of the fact he has a huge crush on Asta… maybe even too aware. It wouldn’t hurt to think about it less often… Not that he wants to think about Asta less. Something he’d never admit is the fact that he falls asleep easier when he thinks of him.

Being around Asta doesn’t bother Leo though! He’s quite proud of the way he’s so well composed around him.

As they approached the lake, Asta put his arm around Leo. A clear friendly gesture, but one that makes his heart skip.

“We’re here! Huh? Leo, are you alright? Your face is super red.”

Leo tries to offer a response, but the only thing that comes out is a voice crack. His entire body was tense. He was already beginning to feel dizzy.

He was snapped out of his frozen state when he heard Mimosa giggle a little bit behind them.

“I’m fine… Yes, I’m great!” Leo took a step back and kept his eyes everywhere else but on Asta.

“Oh, okay. I was just making sure.” Leo couldn’t help but feel like Asta didn’t believe him. It was strange because if that were true, it’d be completely out of character from Asta… Unless Asta was paying close attention to him or something.

Was he?

Leo fiddled with his fingers.

Why would Asta be paying attention to Leo specifically though? It’s not as if he likes him or anything…

Hm…

No, he doesn’t.

Leo shrugs it off and begins a quick sprint to the water. “I’ll race you!”

Asta gasped and followed after him almost immediately. “Hey! That’s not fair, you got a head start!”

Although Leo was ahead of him, his legs carried him right to the water just as Leo made it. “I WIN!!” Asta yelled proudly.

Leo didn’t seem to agree. “No, I made it before you!” He put on a fake angry face.

“It seemed like a tie to me.” Mimosa said from behind them.

“I wasn’t paying attention.” Noelle flipped her hair.

Leo sank down. “A tie, huh…?”

Asta watched as Leo sank lower and raised an eyebrow. Until Leo splashed water in Asta’s direction, causing a gasp to escape him.

Asta smirked and retaliated immediately, throwing water back in Leo’s direction.

Leo laughed and the two began a treacherous battle of the lake, the water their weapon.

Noelle looked into their bag, probably searching for sunscreen. “Not even a full minute and they’re already going at it…”

Mimosa laughed a little. “Yeah… it doesn’t really surprise me anymore though.”

Asta dived underwater. Leo stopped for a moment, confused as he scanned the water. However, by the time he spotted Asta, he was pulled under.

They both came back up, Asta sat on his knees to get a breath. After rubbing his eyes, he opened them and saw Leo sitting just below him. Leo was doing the same, though he had a small smirk on his face as he looked up at Asta.

Asta coughed awkwardly and smiled. “Guess that’s a win for me!”

Leo sighed. “Man… I guess so. Next time! I’ll win next time.”

Asta offered his hand and helped Leo up.

They spent the next two hours enjoying their time by the lake. By the time they were finished, it was much cooler than it had been before.

Leo looked up at the sky on their way back. It was pretty cloudy… and they seemed darker than usual.

“It looks like it might rain, doesn’t it?” Asta said. Leo turned his head towards Asta. He must’ve noticed Leo staring at the sky. Asta spoke in a quiet voice, keeping the conversation between only the two of them.

“Yeah… it might get cold tonight.” Leo let out a small yawn.

Asta nods his head in agreement. “If it gets too cold, you could come to my tent.”

Leo found himself blushing yet again. He didn’t give an audible reply… just a small nod.

It was starting to get dark. Yuno already had a fire going. They sat around the fire and took turns telling numerous stories.

Leopold paid attention to most of the stories… except for the ones Asta told. It wasn’t as if he did it on purpose or anything. But listening to Asta tell a story was a whole excuse to stare at him for a while. This wasn’t something Leo did often, but sitting so close to him… being able to smell his scent made it rather difficult to focus on almost anything else.

During one of Asta’s last stories, he must’ve noticed Leo spacing out because he had tapped Leo’s back to snap him out of it. He felt a bit embarrassed… but it must’ve been a story Asta wanted Leo to hear which made him wonder if Asta knew he was tuning him out the entire time. Or… is Asta truly that oblivious that he just so happens to always do the right thing?

Because once Leo could finally pay attention, he laughed a lot… because the story Asta told was hilarious. Funniest one of the night.

It wasn’t long until everyone headed back to their tents to sleep for the night. So Leo did the same, saying goodnight to Asta.

Once he was in his tent, he got into some comfortable clothes and crawled into his makeshift bed. It was warm enough. Leo stared up for a while before turning his lanturn off and drifting off to sleep.

However…

When Leo opened his eyes, it was definitely not morning. Not only that, but he was freezing. And wet… It took only an instant before he realized that it was raining. And that the rain had soaked through his tent a bit… his blankets were a little wet and so was his hair.

Compared to the hot weather during the day, he felt like he was in the middle of a snowstorm with his teeth chattering and his body trembling. He rubbed his eyes and turned on his lantern. Almost all of his things were wet…

He sighs.

He rose up and put on his now squishy shoes. They were far from comfortable. He peeks out of his tent with his lantern. It seems that his tent was the only one who couldn’t handle the rain… Guess that was his fault for getting a cheap one. He didn’t think it would make THIS much of a difference!

A wave of cold air washed over him and he shivered. He felt slightly embarrassed having to do this… but he didn’t seem to have any other choice.

Leo slowly walked over to Asta’s tent. The rain fell onto him which made him hurry over. He unzipped Asta’s tent and crawled in, closing the tent behind him. He set his lantern aside and sighed again.

He heard Asta’s gentle breaths… saw the rising and falling of his chest. Leo frowned as he realized he’d have to wake Asta up if he wanted to be warm tonight…

Leo crawls over next to Asta’s sleeping back and reaches his hand forward, gently poking him.

Asta mumbled something, but didn’t wake up.

Leo reached his other hand forward and shook Asta slightly. Asta started to stir and rolled over.

“Hm…?”

“Asta…” Leo whispered.

Asta yawned loudly and sat up. He stares at Leo for a moment.

“Leo…? What are you doing here?” Asta muttered. Leo hung his head.

“The water got into my tent… and it was really cold, so…”

Asta seemed more awake now. “You’re wet…” he said in a concerned tone.

“Huh? Oh, I guess… I’m fine though.”

Asta shook his head. “No, you’ve gotta be freezing…” Asta looked around for a moment and grabbed his nearby towel, carefully wrapping it around Leo’s shoulders. “There you go…”

Leo gazed up at Asta. “Thank you…”

Asta pulled Leo closer immediately. “You can stay with me tonight if you want.” Leo knew his face was red. He could feel it. He was so close to him…

“Are you sure?”

Asta nods confidently. “Yeah! C’mon, we can share my sleeping bag.”

Leo froze in his spot. “Share… your sleeping bag? Together?”

Asta nodded again. “Mhm. Come on.” Asta opened his sleeping bag and slowly took the towel off of Leo. Leopold wanted to argue simply because this had been so sudden, but… Seeing Asta just waiting there for Leo to… sleep with him… literally! Sleep with him LITERALLY! Not in any other way! Leo crawled into the sleeping bag with Asta, a flustered expression on his face.

Asta zipped it up and they laid there… against each other. “Sorry… I didn’t bring another pillow.”

Leo gave him a small smile. “It’s okay! This is enough.”

Asta frowned. “I don’t want you to be uncomfortable though… Would you be okay with using my chest as a pillow?”

Leo almost gasped, his lips pressed against each other tightly as if trying to prevent him from even attempting to speak.

“We could do it the other way around if you want—“ Asta is quickly cut off.

“No, it’s fine!” Leo sinks lower into the sleeping bag and rests his head on Asta’s chest. It was softer than he thought it’d be. It was nice. He listened to the soothing rhythm of Asta’s heartbeat.

He felt Asta’s arms wrap around him almost in a possessive manner. Leo almost wanted to question him, but he chose not to. Instead, he did the same by putting his arms around Asta.

It’s at the point where they’re completely cuddling… All snuggled up together sharing warmth.

Sharing Asta’s warmth.

He feels like he loves the feeling of cuddling with Asta a little too much. The stress of waking up in a wet tent where all his things were soaked was stripped away… Listening to Asta’s heartbeat soothed him.

Being coddled in Asta’s tight embrace had him feeling completely calm. If he was being honest… he was in complete bliss. He hasn’t felt this peaceful for so long. He couldn’t help but cuddle up against Asta more. Once he realized he had done it, he was overwhelmed with embarrassment.

“A-Asta…! I… I, uhm…”

Asta chuckled gently and patted Leo’s head. “Don’t worry, it’s okay.”

Leo felt Asta rubbing circles into his back. It felt oddly intimate. A little too intimate.

“Goodnight, Leo.” Asta whispered, planting a kiss on the top of Leo’s head before he turned the lantern off.

This time, Leo let out a small gasp. Asta kissed him.

Asta actually kissed him. What did that even mean?! Thousands of thoughts went through Leo’s head. He had no clue what to say. He could hear Asta laugh again under his breath, holding Leo close.

Leo took a few breaths and listened to Asta’s heartbeat again. Maybe he didn’t have to say anything right now… Asta didn’t seem to be expecting it from him anyway. Maybe they could just enjoy each other’s company for a while…

With a bit more confidence, Leo snuggled closer to Asta with a long sigh of content.

Leo fell asleep soon afterwards, relaxing in Asta’s comforting arms.

Fairy's Tale

A/n: Sorry for the long wait, I'm so busy with school ;-; i'll try to update more regularly.

Chapter 2: Crystal and Her

“No, I’m not. I’m just a traveler, that’s all” - (y/n) answered  Leopold’s question.

This strike Fuegoleon’s interest a lot. 

From their interaction and the way she speaks and reacts to his actions, Fuegoleon was sure that if she’s not a royalty then she must be a noble. There’s no way a simple commoner could behave in such a way as an upper class could. This made Fuegoleon very surprised. Where is she from? Why did she lies? Those are the questions running through his head at the moment. Yet, he did not ask a single one of them. He thinks she must have a reason to lie, at the same time, it could be quite dangerous if he let another Kingdom’s royalty roam freely in the Capital.

“Then, would you want a little tour of the Capital miss?” - Fuegoleon suggested, this is the perfect opportunity to figure out who this girl is and what is her intention here in the Clover Kingdom. That’s what Fuegoleon thought. But to other, the suggestion is a sign that the Magic Knight Captain took an interest in the mysterious girl.

“Would you not take a rest for the day brother?” - Leopold asks, not forgetting their reason to even enter the cafe.

“No need Leo, a walk around the Capital would be just as nice” - Fuegoleon said - “So, what do you think miss (y/n)?”

‘This is great. A free tour around, there’s no reason to decline’ - (y/n) thinks, completely unaware of the red head’s motive.

“That would be lovely”

“Hahaha ok then, I’ll leave you two to it. I’ll be continuing my patrol now” - Leopold said, waving at them before turning a corner to continue his duties.

The two started their tour around the Capital, the Magic Knight Captain asks (y/n) questions from time to time.

“Miss (y/n), may I ask where you came from?”- He asks, wanting to know more of her profile.

‘Ah shoot, I didn’t think this through’ - (y/n) panic a little - “How about you take a guest, Sir Vermillion?”

‘Smart’ - He thinks - “Huhm… well, from the way you dress, I would say somewhere hot.”

“Close, go on” - She encourages him, wanting him to just blur out a random name and she is just gonna agree with it.

“I’m not sure. There's a lot of Kingdom with hot weather. I don’t want to disrespect your orientation” - He dodged her trap completely. - ‘Now what are you gonna say’

‘Damn this guy. Come on, think. A country in the human world. It doesn’t have to be hot, I can come up with an excuse later’ - “Mali. I came from Mali”

“Oh is that so. You came from a very beautiful country indeed.” - Fuegoleon said - ‘Mali…I’ve never heard of this country before’

This went on as Fuegoleon kept asking more and more questions to know more about (y/n) reason of coming to the Capital and each time, (y/n) would avoid the question or just make up nonsense for answers.

‘This is not how I imagine the tour would be like’ - (y/n) cried inside.

Then, at the corner of her (e/c) eyes, she saw a shop, a crystal shop to be exact. Spotting how (y/n) keeps looking in that direction, Fuegoleon turns his head and a small shop greets his eyes. Thinking that maybe if she lets her guard down, he would be able to pull more information from her, Fuegoleon suggested:

“Would you like to visit that shop?” - He asked, leaning down slightly

“Would you mind?” - (y/n) said, genuinely wanting to go visit that shop. Unlike humans who think crystal is just a decoration, to fairies, crystal can be used as a decor, a healer, it’s a symbol in the Fairy’s Forest. That’s why (y/n) wanted to see what kind of crystal the humans have in store.

“Not at all.”

And with that, they headed to the store. In there, the floor and walls are all made of wood, there’s crystal everywhere. The shop owner spotted the Crimson Lion’s Captain and immediately jumped on the opportunity.

“My, my, what does the great Magic Knight Captain need in my humble shop?” - He says, trying to lick Fuegoleon’s boots.

“I’m here to accompany my friend” - He replies.

The shop owner turns his head and is greeted with a beautiful girl with (h/c) and (e/c). ‘This must be someone important if she’s a friend of a Royal’, thinks the shop owner. He thinks he must present whatever most of the people of wealth and status fancy, expensive and rare products. He takes out a small box with intricate details all over its surface.

“Well, it looks like you just got here at the perfect time, miss. What you see here is THE Fairy Crystal that the Fairy Queen blessed herself with!” - He said in a high tone.

‘My mother? What in the world? This must be a scam’ - (Y/n) said, already feel like leaving this place.

“Is this some kind of joke?” - (Y/n) asked deadpan.

“M-my Lady, why would you ask such a question! Who am I to even dare to trick you? Of course not! This crystal was blessed by the Fairy Queen herself, it can even bring good fortune too. I can guarantee you that!”- said the owner.

—

Knowing that is not true one bit as the Fairy Queen hasn’t blessed a single soul for thousands of years let alone crystals. And even if it is blessed by the Queen, there will be no chance of the artifact being sold in this store. 

‘Is he trying to joke around? No. He’s trying to fool me into buying that thing. How unfortunate.’

“Is there something not to your liking, my Lady?” - Fuegoleon asks, noticing (y/n)’s change in behavior.

“Sir Vermillion…” - (y/n) trailed off. - “Do you perhaps have any kind of relation with the owner?” 

“Hm? No, what made you ask that question, miss (y/n)?” - Fuegoleon asks not knowing what make (y/n) thinks that the two of them are related. If the owner is a Vermillion, there’s a high chance that he would know that the shop existed earlier today. 

(y/n) gestures Fuegoleon to come closer. Him, understanding what she meant, leaned down with his arms now crossed across his chest.

“I think that the shop owner is trying to scam us” - she said with a serious tone.

Fuegoleon raised one of his brown.

“What makes you think so, miss (y/n)?” - he questions.

“I think it’s quite clear that that crystal was not blessed by the Fairy Queen, besides, it looks kinda dull, there’s nothing special about it except for its color. If I’m not wrong then it’s just a cheaper type crystal in a luxury box.” - she whispers in his ear, not wanting the owner to overheard them.

This took Fuegoleon by surprise. 

‘She knows a lot about crystals’

‘Smart’

‘Is Mali a country that has a close connection with crystal?’

All of this runs through his head at the speed of light. All of this he can’t answer, but he knows for sure that (y/n)’s right about the scam.

“Hahaha, thank you Sir for the offer. I will send people over later.” - Fuegoleon said to the owner. His hand guiding (y/n) out of the shop. This make (y/n) feels so betrayed. Why does he want to send people over? Does he not believe her? What? Whyyy??

After escorting a confused (y/n) out of the shop. Taking in what had just happened,  (y/n) snapped, creating more distance between the two of them. Facing the redhead,  (y/n) browns slightly scrunched together, her eyes are staring holes through the man’s face. Cold sweats lightly drip down Fuegoleon’s forehead. It looks like he’s trying to come up with something, some kind of excuse.
