i dont know if my memory serves me right anymore
i dont think im remembering any of the things i claim happened to me correctly anymore
i feel like all this trauma and abuse i say happened to me is a lie , that im forgetting and saying things that were honestly super minor in the moment , but became something i twisted the details of in my head into something worse than what it was , because i had forgotten
did my nana really say unpleasant things to me that warranted me to say she's extremely self centered and manipulative? did my mom really treat us that poorly as we grew up , when i know she's bipolar and i need to be more understanding of her and not get angry or hurt? did my aunt really do things that deserved her to not be called an aunt by me anymore , and make me recoil at just hearing her name?
surely im not misremembering things that my nana has done to get her way. surely im not misremembering mistreatment i faced from my mom. surely im not misremembering how i had to wear a plastic smile all the time to satisfy my aunt.
but am i?
im just holding grudges against family and trying to escape for no reason. right? if i made a list of all the terrible things my nana , mom , and aunt have done , everyone would agree they're bad , until i say all the good. then , i become an ungrateful child , because i care so much more about how i was wronged by them instead of the nice and pleasant things they've done for me.
not just them. my whole family. im not being understanding enough of everyone. i had to make it all about me.
that kid who "sa'ed" me , did he really? wasn't i just asking for it? it's my fault , and i had no right to escape. right? all that flashbacks and breaking down , that only started to happen 6 years after the situation. was it really that serious? did it really affect me that badly? im intentionally thinking about it , right?
ive talked to friends about my family and that incident , they say my family definitely could've been better , and some relatives it's understandable that i want to leave them behind. that the things they did weren't normal. that even if i did something that was completely wrong and i did deserve to be punished , the punishment i was given was too extreme. that things some relatives have said aren't okay. that my dad had no right to threaten to sock me in the jaw for cussing at school when i was 10 , that his ways of snapping me out of episodes really aren't necessary or okay , that my mom isn't showing me the respect im looking for and that i don't owe any of my abusive relatives anything. that the situation wasn't my fault and i didn't deserve it , and such thoughts are a common trauma response to sa and r@pe.
ive trusted them on that for a while. but i keep thinking maybe all of us are in the wrong.
i say all that and ill just be given nice words in return , when i know im a bratty child and really it is all my fault.
i have been self-gaslighting heavily for a few weeks now. when i talk about it with friends i tend to fall into the spiral into thoughts that im in the wrong and everyone else is right. the gaslighting is working , luckily , that it is entirely my fault and i need to get a grip , and repair the damage i have caused my entire family. i need to treat them like people and show them my love instead of hating every second of being around them or receiving any contact from them.
i feel like ive forgotten everything and this gaslighting will eventually make me forget entirely. i can feel sorry for myself all i want , i just can't act like or say i was abused or manipulated or anything. others have it worse , i cant say such things about myself.
right? because nothing actually happened right?
everything i say really is for attention right?
im imagining things that never happened right?
i don't remember. it's all a blur.

Running away
Look at me running away from it as soon as it makes me uncomfortable, yeah I did what I could in my brain and change my thoughts but I still chose to leave because it was getting hard. I left. I chose that, and now I am here, and now what? Now I have to process leaving, get told off probably, feel guilty, all because I chose not to do it. Thats my issue now, just doing it.
Okay lets look at the reason why I left okay, instead of telling myself off a little bit. First of all, I was feeling genuinely sick and onto of that I was already bothered and moving slow, now, I should have just told someone I was leaving, but I was sick and I felt like an empty pit in my stomach, I was in pain, my face went white and I felt faint and dizzy, and I didn’t even smoke, I was sober and sick dizzy and in pain. I didn’t have to energy for my activity I had promised to go to.
Anyways, so yes I do feel sick and tired and I’m aloud to feel sick and tired. tell me off all you want but I’m not going to let it effect me in any way negatively at all, instead it will effect me none, and I will take only the truth and grow from it. I just have to keep levelling up, and I feel like I’m trying to make my own steps, instead of progressing with the universe’s path chosen for me. My decisions determine which path I go down, yes, but by trying to make my own pathway out of thoughts is again, chasing dragons. Just walk the path you’re on, and if you can’t see it, then clean up a little bit more.
The power of choice. I’m here now, so whats the point continuing to feel guilty? I’ve processed it, and I’m happy with my outcome, I know some more why’s, and I’m getting a better understanding through current practice. The power of choice.
I would like to look at all the memories I forgot, like a library. Maybe I wouldn’t be so miserable and difficult if I could just see how much love I had in it, instead of all the bad. I really don’t like talking to people coz they really have no fucking idea. What am I talking to? It makes no sense to me, anything anyone says makes 0 sense. Zilch. I don’t understand nor can I comprehend their sentences. im not part of them, I’m seperate. They are the same, luckily. Being seperate from the human race is a difficult and sometimes grey world to live in. But If ye can find the colour, so can i. i dont like to hold conversations, no small talk bullshit, being quiet doesn’t mean I’m scared. Maybe I’m a little scared, but nothing I cant fix though. He sacredness that I have, I wonder where it comes from, I remember having panic attacks at 7 in primary school when this one kid would always throw a fit and become violent throwing desks and chairs and screaming swearing punching kids hitting kids, I was scared of him, but he was nice to me. I guess thats my earliest memory, I was so scared I didn’t move, but my body started shaking just real anxious. I guess that can be caused by my parents arguing around us as kids, sometimes it got real ugly and I did the same thing, shake. I used to think ‘what the hell is wrong with me’ as I tried my best to stop shaking, causing more panic when I find it impossible to stop. It doesn’t take long for me to become extremely overwhelmed once I hit this point, and at that point I can lose control.
Maybe I’m just so medicated that I don’t even realise when I’m in a depressive episode. Sobriety makes me anxious and angry, I just need weed to feel mellow, and not flip the fuck out for real. Thank you for pointing that out.
so this whole level up thing I’ve been wanting to do, like pretty much just be high maintenance, always look good 24/7, look good feel good right? Q is…. Should I get extentions? …. no
I think as long as I’m taking care of myself, and I’m writing, I can do anything. Thats really my base, thats all I need, self can and letting everything off. Im really excited to get my nails cute like Haiilsz beiber, yeah. I want pretty hands.
I really didn’t plan to be here for this many years. I mean like when I was 14/15/16 I wasn’t thinking about myself at 23 years old, which Is where Im at right now, 23 :) thats crazy, anywyas, I wasn’t planning on it. So now that I’m here I’m lost it seems, or like, still 19, still a teenager. But I’m a woman now. Everyone around me is older aswell.
I dont have much respect for peoples time, I don’t really take things as seriously as other people do. Or at least thats how I feel, I feel rude. But I shouldn’t, because I never set out my day to be rude, I set out my days in the best possible intentions I can bring myself to create for myself. And that is why things are always working out for me not matter how they look at any time.

TTS Halloween special:
Varian:
-forgets the date and when its the day before halloween Raps is like "what are you gonna be" and he's like "holy- i FORGOT IT WAS HALLOWEEN I WAS BUSY WITH sCieNcE" *weird hand gesture thingy he does*
-but remembers that he predicted this happening and planned his halloween costume and trick-or-treat route 6 months earlier
-dresses up as Flynn Rider
-Eugene sees him and tears up
-Varian frantically tries to reassure him that no its not because he finds Flynn scary
-Eugene literally crying bc omg its ME i love me
-taking Angry and Catalina with him and generally having a good time but somehow 'losing' his candy every now and then ("candy? what candy? never heard of it in my life! have YOU heard of this thing known as 'candy', Catalina? no? i didn't think so. Sorry Varian, but whats a candy-")
Angry and Catalina:
-Catalina goes as a werewolf, Angry as a maniacal witch who has a werewolf familiar
-Catalina doesn't even need a costume, Angry just wears a pointy hat and normal clothing
-generally causing chaos everywhere and running away from Varian when they can
-have 32 different costumes Just In Case™️
-have only done it once before, but somehow still being so completely at ease with everything going around them (mostly bc its all chaos and they love chaos)
-Angry letting Catalina decide the route for trick or treating
-but she wants to go everywhere so they just go where Varian's going bc they know he planned how to get the most candy
-doing EVERY. SINGLE. ACTIVITY.
-luckily Varian planned for this as well (backup plan)
-and he knows his dad will get him candy and he'll share them with the girls
-so the three of them spend the rest of the night goofing around
-Angry and Catalina trying to lose him and generally being really chaotic and weird
-but Varian has trackers attached to their costumes
Eugene and Lance:
-dress up as each other
-dont even need to go trick or treating, just flat out steal candy
-being confronted by Rapunzel
-"it's a good way to practice being thieves without stealing anything actually of worth. besides, they're GIVING AWAY the candy, no one will miss it"
-ditch the candy halfway through bc even though they love candy, they love the haunted houses more
-randomly meets Angry and Catalina in some remote corner of the street, picks them up and takes them on a piggy back ride
-Varian not realising and then- "OH MY GOD I LOST THE GIRLS EUGENE LANCE I LOST THE GIRLS MY TRACKER ISNT WORKING IM SO SORRY-" "Varian. They're literally sitting on our shoulders." "oh"
-hosting some dangerous activities which Cass eventually comes to visit and criticise but can't because they invited her to play and she's actually have fun ("huh. you did one good thing in your life. i suppose, however dumb you are, you know how to have some fun")
-making a huge dramatic fuss because "oh my god. CASS. is having. FUN. ITS THE END OF THE WORLD AAAAAH" "shut up Fitzherbert"
The Brotherhood:
-Quirin not wanting to come but Varian convinces him
-"Whats a halloween?"
-Edmund being WAYY to enthusiastic about coming when he finds out what it is
-Hector sulking in his room bc bad memories from one halloween like 15 years ago
-"YOU STOLE THE COSTUME I WAS GOING TO WEAR, HOW DARE YOU CALL YOURSELF MY SISTER, THIS IS JUST LIKE WHEN WE WERE 12-" "IT WAS ONE TIME"
-Hector and Adira having a full on battle to find out who gets to wear the costume this year
-Adira winning and Hector sulking and just wearing his brotherhood armour bc "if i can't wear it im not dressing up in anything special at all."
-everyone loves Hectors 'costume' more than Adira and he ends up rubbing it in her face
-"why are you collecting so much candy" "for Varian, he loves candy" "oH DO YOU THINK I SHOULD GET MY SON SOME TOO" "yeah probably-" (Edmund & Quirin)
Rapunzel:
-"OMG ITS THIS THING AGAIN PASCAL WE NEED TO DO IT"
-dresses up as something stupidly optimistic like a flower (the sundrop)
-seriously who let this girl decide her own costume
-and why did it take her 18 tries to not look like a christmas tree
-does a whole theme of scary paintings the second October starts, probably one of those 30 day challenges, and displays them
-prepares a GIANT feast as a halloween celebration (none of the food was what she asked the cooks to make bc Eugene went into the kitchen and asked them to make something different)
-turns an entire floor of the castle into a haunted house (final surprise for Lance, Eugene and Cassandra to work together to escape, almost like a haunted escape room)
Cassandra:
-literally just dyes her hair blue and everyone is running away screaming
-"what? I dressed up as myself, and look how terrified people are. what can I say, Fitzherbert? I'm just better at this than you'll ever be." *smirks*
-Cassandra vs Eugene, who can get more candy edition
-Cass actually fighting people for bonus candy
-and winning ofc
-but she gives half of it to Rapunzel bc Raps was so busy setting everything up she didnt get much candy
-Eugene doing a puppy eyes at her and getting most of her candy, which means...
-"IN YOUR FACE CASSANDRA! I WON!"
-cue what Cass calls the 'Eugene (a.k.a dumbass) dance'
-sighs from everyone within 20 meters of him
-idk i also imagine her standing around eating like cotton candy and glaring at everyone who comes near her at some point

Part Six: Promises
Atsumu x fem reader, Suna x fem reader, Hinata x fem reader
A/N: Soooo at long last the reunion! So many emotions! I’m so stuck on who to root for!
Warnings: Angst, some fluff, slightly suggestive content
Part Five: Friends
Part Seven: Regrets
Tumblr media
You eyes opened to the sun peering through the curtain shining straight right into your face. You moved your hands to block the sun easeing the strain it caused on your eyes. You were groggy, and you back felt stiff. This definitely wasn’t your bed. You surveyed the area finally remembering, that’s right I’m at Suna’s house. You let out a yawn wiping the sleep from your eyes. That when you felt him move next to you. Yesterday the boys had come back from their loss at nationals. While they made the trip back you spent the whole day getting everything ready for your boyfriend’s return. You wanted to make him feel better so you went to the market that morning and spent your day making homemade sashimi with Fatty Tuna and some Onigiri with the left overs for you ,Tsumu and his twin. Although when he finally arrived home and saw you sitting on his door step he wasn’t very receptive.
“Hey there baby,” you gave him a quiet smile, you know he can’t be feeling to hot right now. You ignored the hurt you felt when he rolled his eyes at you.
“What are you doing here YN?” He sighed there was a slight annoyance to his tone. Again you brushed it to the side.
“I wanted to come be here for you, oh and I brought some food for you and Samu,” you presented the bag containing all of the goodies you had made for them.
Osamu’s eyes lit up at the word food quickly grabbing the bag out your hands “ohhh hell yeah I’m starving, mmmh thanks YN,” he said trying to stuff an Onigiri in his mouth before entering the Miya household. You laughed at his antics before turning your attention back to your boyfriend.
Atsumu stood there in front of you with a look of exhaustion etched on his face. “I was thinking maybe we could spend the evening together, maybe watch a movie, or just cuddle or really whatever you want,” you explained not sure what would be the best in this situation you weren’t used to having to comfort him after a loss.
He frowned “what I want is to be left alone I don’t have the energy to deal with you right now.”
You scoffed “ deal with me!” You questioned back suprised by his attitude.
“Yeah YN I really dont feel like putting up with your clinginess right now it’s annoying,” he huffed.
Your jaw dropped he had never spoke to you that way before. “Wow Okay Atsumu, I knew you were gunna be upset but that doesn’t mean you get to be a dick to me! Enjoy the food I’m going to leave it’s obvious I’m not wanted here,” you stated not standing to be talked like that.
You didn’t stick around to hear his response, you both needed to calm down at this point. You made your way down the street still fuming and ranting in your head “how dare he!” You thought! Ughhh you needed to calm down. You already knew the destination you were heading for. You had planned to save some of the snacks you had made and bring some home to Suna on your way home tonight. But now all the food was with Atsumu. You could feel your stomach growl. You let out a frustrated sigh stuspid Tsumu that was you meal too. You decide to stop at convenience store loading up on all of yours and the middle blockers favorite snacks.
And that’s how you ended up where you are now. Laying down on his couch covered in his comforter with your best friends face snuggled up into your stomach. You giggled he looked adorable. Part of you really wanted snap a photo for proof. Suna was never the most affectionate when it came to anyone really, so to see him holding your waist close was so sweet. He looked so peaceful. You were so thankful for him. When you showed up at his door yesterday you were supposed to cheer him up but it seems it was more likely the other way around. Lost in thought you start running your fingers through his hair as he laid sleeping on your abdomen. He was always there for you and always put your feeling into account with anything you did together. He paid attention to the little details ,like how he had remembered yesterday that milk bread was your favorite, but he did that all the time always so analytical with everything. So you don’t think to much of it. It’s hard to stop yourself and if anyone EVER asked you , you would lie. But for a moment you imagined what it would be like if you were dating the withdrawn boy. You were quick to dismiss that idea though. It was wrong you love Atsumu you knew that and plus he was you best friend. Hell he was one of your boyfriends closest friends. Your smile dropped a little thinking about the setter. That’s right your boyfriend, that is if that what he still was. You weren’t mad anymore a little hurt yes but all the anger had disapatted. You understood he wasn’t in the best place and you weren’t going to let one fight break you up. But you couldn’t speak for him. Were you really that clingy? Did you annoy him that much? Did he still want to be with you? These intrusive thoughts were interrupted by the vibration of your phone. Huh speak of the devil.
Tsumu 💕 : hey babe.
Tsumu 💕: I know ur probably pissed u should be.
Tsumu 💕 : I’m so so sorry for being an ass yesterday. I was just so mad at myself for not doing enough at the match, but that doesn’t matter it was no excuse for how I treated you. I get it if you don’t want to deal with me anymore but I just want you to know you're not annoying I didn’t mean any of the shit I said I was just angry and I shouldn’t have taken it out on you. I promise it’ll never happen again please give me another chance I love you YN 🥺💕
You let out a sigh of relief. Looking back down at the boy laying next to you. He really was quite handsome, and so caring. He's going to make someone so happy one day.
Tumblr media
You’re not sure what brought that memory into your head at this moment but you push it to the side as Suna approached you. He looked like a man on a mission weaving threw the bar patrons. It was like if he didn’t reach you in time you’d disappear. You found your heart beating faster as we neared you. Soon enough he was standing in front of you with a look of disbelief etched on his normally stoic face.
You were nervous what should you say. What if he’s angry with you. You didn’t get much time to worry because as soon as the middle blocker confirmed you weren't a figment of his imagination he pulled you into his chest. His arms wrapping around you securely. You quickly melt into his embrace a sense of familiarity swarming over you.
“Where the hell have you been dumbass,” he choked out before quickly pulling his emotions back in. You laughed into his chest at his nickname for you.
“Sorry Suna I just had to leave I couldn’t be around him anymore,” you choked out. You removed yourself from his grasp moving back to your seat at the bar. You motioned for him to join you. You took a large gulp needing to calm your nerves.
“Look don’t apologize, you were going through a lot , hell I don’t know how I would react if I found out the person I loved was cheating on me for two years, I might committed murder,” he lets out a nervous laugh. Your brain freezes two years.... two years your mind just keeps repeating like it just can’t possibly process that information. You face drops, you turn to the bartender “ another shot of tequila please, uh make that a double,” lord knows you need it.
Suna looks at you eyes wide you had never been much of a drinker before ,at least not hard liquor, the most you ever drank were a glass or two of wine. So to see you finish off your mixed drink then proceed to down a double shot of tequila was a sight.
Your mind was swimming. As you paid out the bartender leaving a nice tip for the speedy service your mind ran in circles around the new information. You knew he had cheated on you for the eight months with Yuki and part of you figured it wasn’t the first time but TWO DAMN YEARS! You want to scream and break something like he couldn’t betray you anymore then Suna has to go tell you it was for hell of a lot longer than you had figured. You froze you brain caught on to one detail. Suna knew it was for two years and you didn’t. Did he know the whole damn time! Your brain couldn’t think rationally. You need to get out of here. It was to much the music was too loud, the place was to crowded, you felt like you couldn’t breath. You gave him a look of disgust before turning and walking away ready to leave this place.
Suna was shocked all of the sudden you looked at him your face full of pain. Before he could realize what was happening you were slipping through the crowd. Oh no he panics he just found you he couldn't let you slip away that easy. He wanted to know why you dropped him. He needed to know if he meant that little to you. So he started running after you calling your name. Luck was on his side tonight. Although you had been able to make it out the club and partially down the block he was able to catch you.
“YN wait , where are you going,” he asked desperately reaching for your wrist to stop you. You snatched your arm away from him angry.
“I’m going home Suna leave me alone,” you shout over you shoulder heading towards your apartment luckily it wasn’t too far. Although you could feel the alcohol start to settle in you knew you could still navigate your way home.
“ stop YN talk to me,” you ignored him and kept walking he let out a groan of frustration and started following you. It not like he had just downed two shots but he had plenty of drinks before he had found you. He was not expecting to have to go for a walk.
You look over your shoulder noticing he was following you. “Ughh leave me alone Suna,” you yell back to him, “stop following me!”
“Too bad I am walking with you till get home, I just watched you put back a lot of alcohol I know you can’t be sober so there is no way I’m letting you go by yourself! I’m walking with you I would never forgive myself if something happened to you.” You sighed knowing there was no changing his mind. You looked forward continuing your trek home.
After that last outburst the rest of the walk was silent. Your mind was clouded. You wanted to cry so badly how could Suna act like he cared about you if he helped hide Atsumus betrayal from you. Maybe you were right maybe the friendship was a lie, maybe the connection was one sided. You could feel a swell of emotions in your chest. You denied it for long but you missed Suna. You missed your late night calls, you missed getting coffee , you missed forcing him to watch the newest episode of whatever anime you were watching, you missed hearing all about his games and being one of his number one fans, you missed sending memes, but most of all you missed how much he always seemed to be there when you needed him. But what if that was all just an act. What if ir was just a distraction from all the lies in your life. Before you knew it you were standing at you front door. You could feel his presence behind you unmoving.
“Goodbye Suna,” you huffed opening your door.
“STOP! YN please!” His voice broke. “Please don’t shut me out again! Talk to me!” You refused look back but if you did you’d see tears welling in his eyes holding on with all might trying not to spill over his heated cheeks. You looked at the entrance of your home every fiber in your body screaming at you to comfort him to reach out and hold him close, but you were so scared. So afraid to learn the truth.
“If our friendship ever meant anything to you please talk to me.” He voice so quiet like he was terrified of your response. You moved forward opening the door and stepping through the threshold. You could hear his sharp intake of air you could feel the pain radiating from him. You turned to him seeing Suna broken in a way you had never seen before. Not when he lost nationals, not when he lost his pet, not with any of his break ups. Your heart shattered at the sight. You looked into his eyes before opening you door wider for him to enter. You could see the relief rack through his body. Slowly as though he was unsure you’d change your mind at the last minute he stepped into your apartment. He tentatively took off his shoes before looking around your home studying every detail. You walk past him taking a seat on your couch you look down at the ground in front of you. You can feel the couch seat next to you shift under his weight his long legs entering your vision as you kept from looking up. You both sat in an uncomfortable silence both unsure were to start.
“So this is we’re you been all this time,” he let out a small laugh at the irony, “all that time I spent looking for you and here you were less then ten minutes away from me.”
Your face scrunched “ why would you look for me,” you asked letting your insecurities get the best of you.
He looked at you like you had just asked him if the sky was blue because to him that had to be stupidest question he had ever heard. You shifted uncomfortably under his stare you body now facing him. You head throbbing from the cluster of emotions and from the alcohol coursing throughout your body. You were sorta thankful for your inebriated state. You doubted you’d have the small amount of courage you have now with out it. Your attention turned back to the male sitting beside you.
“Because I care about you dumbass.”
“Oh really! Yeah it sure seemed like that! Two years he cheated on me for TWO YEARS!,” you started to feel heated the walls you had built around your emotions bursting at the seems. “ that’s news to me although at this point I’m not all that surprised, but still I was only aware that he had been cheating on me for eight months! So I just find it strange that you know it was for two years! Tell me Suna did you know the whole time and just let me sit there ignorant to his betrayal! I know you are his friend and that you’ve known him longer but still I thought our friendship meant something!” You aren’t sure when it started but tears were spilling down your cheeks. You looked into his eyes and saw pain. He was hurt that you thought he’d ever choose anyone over you.
He takes a deep breath steadying himself “I’m going to explain everything and I need you to please just listen to me,” he sighs looking to you for your response. You gave a small nod . He let out the breath he didn’t realize he was holding. He rubs his hands over his face trying his best to calm his nerves.
“It was two weeks after your birthday,” he begins. “You weren’t answering your phone, it was so unusual for you to ignore me for that long no matter how busy you were you’d always call me and check up, so when I got no response I got scared you were angry with me ,so when I was meeting up with Osamu and he said he hadn’t heard from you either and that Atsumu wasn’t answering his phone neither we decided to stop by.” His face twitched with aggravation. “You can imagine our surprise to find the place a mess and Atsumu just sitting there in self pity. It became apparent that you weren’t there. When he said you left him Samu and I were shocked there was no way you’d just leave so we both knew something had to happen.” You could see Suna’s jaw clench and fist ball up grabbing at his pants. “When he finally broke and told us he cheated on you and you had caught him he came clean about the two years. I couldn’t hear anymore of his bullshit so I punched him and left.” Your eyes went wide. He punched him. “Osamu had to come outside and calm me down, I was so worried no one knew where you were and that ass was just sitting there feeling bad for himself!” He seethed. You placed your hand on his arm trying to calm him. It must have done the trick. He took a deep breath before looking straight into your eyes. “I honestly thought you knew how long, I didn’t know I promise you that,” he picked up your free hand holding it in his. “You should know I’d never choose him or anyone for that matter over you.”
Your heart felt like it stopped in that moment. “Why would you say that,” you asked breathless.
He let out a chuckle he brought his hand up to caress your face. You couldn’t stop yourself from pressing your cheek firmly into his palm. You heart started to quicken. There was a look in the middle blockers eyes that you had never noticed before although it looked so familiar like this was how he always looked at you and you were just to blind to notice. “I thought it would have been obvious by now,” you didn’t notice how close you had both become. His face was merely an inch or two away from yours. His eyes glanced down to your lips, you copy the motion. You can feel your cheeks heat. “ I’m in love with you,” he states his breath hiting you face. Before you knew it his lips were connected to yours.
You didn’t pull back enjoying the feeling of his lips. He snaked his hand behind your head holding the back of your neck securely. The kiss was slow but so full of passion. You felt a light lick of his tongue as he requested to deepen the kiss. You gladly obliged opening your mouth to his exploration. You snaked your hands into his hair adjusting your body to his. Slowly he leaned you back on the couch capturing you underneath him. He slid he’s free hand down grabbing ahold of your hip as your tongue danced together sensually. He gave a light squeez to your hip. Your lips disconnected as your head fell back while you let out a soft moan. He seized this opportunity to place delicate kisses under your jaw and down your neck before latching on to your neck. You legs spread allowing him closer access to you. The hand at you hip gently crept up your shirt before giving a tender clutch to your breast.
“Suna!” You mewled.
He gave a soft nip at your neck “say my name love,” he requested his voice heavy with want. He tweaked your nipple through the fabric of your bra.
“Ahh Rintarou,” you moaned. Your fingers gripping at the black strands of his hair your back arching up into his touch.
You could feel him smile into your neck. “You don’t know how long I’ve dreamed of hearing that,” he recapture your lips into a searing kiss as he rolled his hips into yours bringing another whimper forth. You were lost in the feeling of his presence. It was so calming and warm. You felt so comfortable in his arms like this was something you had done a thousand times. Your want for oxygen is sacrificed for the feeling of him pressed into your body. This was different than anything else. It was like he was trying to pour all of his love into this moment. Everything moving slowly as though he wanted to take his time with you. Nothing was hurried or fueled by lust. It was so unlike anything you experienced with Atsumu, or with .....
“Stop,” you breathed disconnecting your lips sitting up trying to create some distance between your bodies. He moved back worried. Cautious of his next move not wanting to scare you away.
“I’m sorry did I hurt you? did I move to fast? I’m sorry YN,” he stammered out.
“Shh Rin, it’s okay you didn’t do anything wrong it’s me,” he gave a small smile loving hearing you call him by his given name. That smile was quickly replaced with a questioning look.
You calmed yourself trying to figure out how to explain your situation. “Rin I can’t do this right now it’s not okay.... there’s someone,” his face dropped.
“Your dating someone,” you could see the fear on his face.
“Well no we’re not dating... it complicated.”
He could start to figure out what you were referring to, he’s not naive. But still he wanted to allow you to explain it.
“Ah this is kind of embarrassing ugh,” you hid your face in your hands.
“It’s okay YN you can tell me anything,” he looked at you reassuring, he needed to know the truth about the situation. He could only hope it wasn’t to serious.
“Well ,” you took a deep breath “ there’s this guy, he’s my friend,” you add “ he and I are uhh well we sleep together, it’s been going on for two months now,” you search his face for any judgment yet you find none. You continue “ I just don’t feel right continuing with what we were doing.”
He shook his head while he searched for his next words. “So you aren’t dating but you don’t feel right being with someone else,” he questions.
“I won’t lie to Rin it’s complicated, I’m fairly certain I was falling for him, but there’s just so much going on and now this with you it’s a lot.” You give him a small smile. “I’m not sure we’re my head is at. I don’t want to make any mistakes that could ruin everything with you and how we move forward, I also have a lot to think about.”
“I understand that but I hope you understand why I’m hesitant, I’m afraid you’ll drop me again and you’ll be gone from me again,” he looked up at you. “I need to know YN, please tell me why did you cut me out of your life?”
You sighed grabbing his hands holding then tightly in your own. “Rin it was so hard, when he betrayed me it felt as though I’d lost the place I called home, like everything I knew was a lie, it terrified me at the idea that everything was a lie, even us, I don’t think I’d survived if I found out that what we have was nothing. So it was easier to push you and everyone else away, I was scared. I also couldn’t stand the idea of Atsumu being in any part of my life, and I still don’t that’s why I’m still so nervous letting you back in, I’m still not ready to face him.”
“I would cut him completely out of my life for you YN, anything you ask and I do it! You could ask for the moon and I’d find a way.” A soft giggle left your lips at his proclamation.
“I could never ask that of you, that’d include Osamu and he’s your closest friend, I couldn’t do that. And I’m not asking you to cut anyone out.... I just need some time,please understand that. These feeling I have for you are so strong but I want to sort them out before we move forward.” You looked him directly in the eyes. “I promise you Rin I will not drop you again, I don’t want you out of my life.” He nodded.
“Okay, I understand and I’ll give you time, but you have to give me your new number,” he smiled at you. You laughed smiling up at him. God how he missed that smile. You traded numbers, before you walked him to the door.
“Goodnight Rin,” you smiled.
“Goodnight love,” he replied leaning down stealing one more kiss. You looked up at him surprised. “What I promised I’d give you time, I never said I wasn’t going to prove to you in that time just how much I love you,” he grinned that sly smile before slipping out your door. Just like earlier that day you slid down your door sitting on the floor letiting out a sigh, except now you had a multitude of new problems. But right now all you could think of was sleep. You were exhausted.

Prompt: Skizz discovers Impulse is a traitor early?
well hello there :D hope this is as good as whatever you had in mind! cuz i dont think i got exactly that lol
...
You whisper to impulseSV: We need to talk. ASAP.
Skizz paces back and forth in his room, anxiously waiting for a response. He hasn’t told anyone what he saw yet; even though he knows he probably should, he just doesn’t want to face it. Something inside him is telling him it’s not true, that there has to be a reasonable explanation. He can’t spread this information before he finds out whether or not it’s true.
impulseSV whispers to you: okay, meet me at my villager hole
Skizz jumps into action and rushes out of the building. He doesn’t tell anyone where he’s going, which might be a big mistake.
He runs all the way to Impulse’s villager hole and bursts in through the non-trapped door. But Impulse is nowhere in sight.
Frowning, Skizz spots a trapdoor with a ladder visible under it that wasn’t there before. He carefully climbs down the ladder and finds himself in an almost pitch black underground room, about the same size as the interior of Dogwarts.
Skizz walks out into the middle of the room, looking around in awe.
“Skizz,” comes Impulse’s voice.
“Gah!” Skizz nearly jumps out of his skin. “Don’t do that! Where are you?”
Impulse materialises out of the darkness. “Hey. Did you come alone?”
“Yeah, I did. I gotta talk to you.”
“So talk.”
Skizz takes a deep breath. “I, uh… I saw you earlier today, meeting with the crastle people. I didn’t hear much of what you said, just something about “gaining their trust”. That… Impulse, you’re on our side, right? You’re just pretending to be friends with them?”
“Yeah, ‘course,” replies Impulse easily. Too easily.
Skizz frowns. “Impulse, please tell me it’s not true. Tell me you’re not betraying us for THEM.”
“I’m not betraying anyone,” says Impulse defensively. “You know me; I’m not capable of that. You… do know that, right?”
“I…” Skizz stares at his best friend. “A few hours ago, I’d have said no. But now… I think you’re capable of anything. Tell me the truth, Impulse. Whose side are you on?”
“Yours, of course.”
“You’re doing it again! Switching on the ol’ Impulse charm and saying exactly what the other person wants to hear. You know that doesn’t work on me, buddy. I’ve known you far too long.” Skizz narrows his eyes. “You’re a mole. You pretended to join us but you’re on their side and you’re gonna betray us for them. Am I wrong?”
After a moment, Impulse wordlessly turns away, all but confirming Skizz’s suspicions.
Skizz’s stomach drops. “Oh, god… I trusted you! You- You traitor!”
Impulse sighs. “This is just like you, Skizz: running over here to confront me alone cuz you couldn’t POSSIBLY fathom that you might’ve been wrong about me. Did it ever occur to you that maybe this world changes people? That you can’t truly trust anyone but yourself?”
“No!” Skizz snaps. “I trust Ren and I trust Martyn and Etho and I DID trust YOU!”
“And that’s gonna be your downfall.”
He suddenly shoves Skizz to the ground. Before his friend can react, Impulse brings his foot down hard on Skizz’s ankle.
Skizz screams as they both hear it crack. The pain is immense; it’s definitely fractured, if not broken completely.
“See the thing is, I can’t have you running around blabbing about this to anyone,” Impulse says casually. “But at the same time, I can’t just kill you because that would show up in chat. So I think it’s time I test out my brand new trap and see how deadly it is.”
Tears of pain and anger fall from Skizz’s eyes as he stares into the cold, harsh eyes of the man he used to call his brother. “Wh-Why, Impulse…? Why would you d-do this to me…?”
Impulse just shrugs. “I’m just playing the game, Skizz. Sorry.”
With that, he turns and walks away into the darkness.
“Impulse!” cries Skizz, his vision completely obscured by tears. “IMPULSE! DON’T LEAVE ME! PLEASE!”
He hears the click of a lever being pulled in the darkness, followed immediately by pistons moving. His breathing quickening, he rolls onto his side and pushes himself up, but as soon as he puts weight on his left ankle, he knows he’s not going to be able to use it.
A familiar growl pierces the air, causing him to freeze.
A zombie.
More growls.
A LOT of zombies.
The first one that appears through the darkness nearly gives him a heart attack. He manages to slice it down with his sword, but by then, three more have ganged up on him. Trying to back away, he finds himself completely surrounded by a horde of at least two dozen zombies.
“NO!” he screams. “HELP ME! SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!”
The zombies’ claws dig into his skin, and at least two of them manage to bite his arms. Players are able to resist being turned into a zombie through a bite but that doesn’t make it hurt any less.
Accidentally putting weight on his injured ankle again, Skizz collapses to the ground and curls up in a ball, trying to protect his head and neck. Impulse was clever; he hurt Skizz’s ankle on purpose so he could neither run nor fight for long.
This is it for him. They’re going to kill him.
All of a sudden, a battle yell echoes in the darkness, followed immediately by the sound of zombies taking damage. Multiple zombies taking damage at once. Someone’s come to save him.
The zombies attacking Skizz move away to target this new threat, but they’re no match for whoever it is. Within a minute, all the zombies in the room have been eliminated.
“Skizz!” comes Etho’s voice. “Are you okay?!”
Severely weakened and on the verge of passing out from the pain, Skizz looks up at his friend, unable to muster the words to reply. His vision is swimming, but he can just about see two figures kneeling beside him.
Etho and Martyn. They came to save him.
That’s the last thought in his mind before he passes out.
“-is definitely broken. But not like he fell from somewhere and landed on it. More like someone stomped on it until it broke.”
“What?! Who would do something like that?!” “I don’t know. Hopefully Skizz can shed some light on this when he wakes up. Oh my goodness, Ren, you should have seen how many zombies there were. I don’t think it was a coincidence.”
“So… you’re saying someone tried to murder Skizzle? Broke his ankle so he couldn’t get away from the zombies?”
“Yeah, I think so. And we think it was Impulse, too. Etho and I didn’t see anyone else around except him, and the hole was under his villager place as well, so we- Oh, look! I think he’s awake!”
Skizz lets out a quiet groan, his eyes slowly opening. As his vision adjusts to the light, he registers Martyn and Ren by his side, and the interior of his bedroom back at Dogwarts behind them.
“Hey, Skizzles,” says Ren gently. “How are you feeling?”
Blinking slowly, Skizz looks down at his arms and finds them covered in bandages. Beyond them, he can see his ankle elevated in a cast. Nothing hurts anymore, to his relief.
“Alive,” he rasps. “For good or for bad.”
“What happened?” Martyn asks. “Do you remember?”
“Oh, I remember.” Skizz tries to suppress a sniffle at the traumatic memory. “It was Impulse. He’s a backstabbing traitor and he tried to kill me to stop me from telling you.”
Ren gasps, but Martyn just shakes his head, an anguished expression on his face. “I should’ve known. There were so many little clues but he explained them away so well, I just…”
“He had us all fooled,” Ren murmurs. “I’m just glad we managed to get to you before he got away with murdering you. If he had, we’d never have known, and we would’ve continued to trust him.”
“How- How did you find me?” Skizz asks. “I didn’t tell you where I was going.”
“Etho and I went looking for you cuz we hadn’t seen you in a while,” replies Martyn. “We just happened to be at Impulse’s villager pen when we heard you screaming. Luckily, Impulse had just left and I don’t think he heard you, or he might have tried to kill us too.”
His upper lip curls in an expression of disgust. “We bumped into him right there and it was like nothing was wrong. It makes me sick to think that he was up there chit-chatting to us about his villagers like everything was fine, knowing full well he’d literally just abandoned you to be murdered by a horde of zombies. That goes beyond 3rd Life; that’s… that’s just pure evil.”
Skizz nods slowly. “Yeah, something’s not right with him anymore. Whoever that was… it’s not my Impulse. Something’s changed him.”
“Well, either way, at least you’re alive and his treachery has been exposed,” Ren says. “And we will take our revenge on him for trying to kill you. As soon as he’s red, we take him down.”
“Why wait?” asks Martyn, frowning. “Why not kill him now, while he’s on yellow?”
“Because if we do, he’ll harbour a grudge and try to take revenge on US for killing him once he’s red. And if yellow life Impulse is THAT dangerous, imagine what he can do on red. It’s better to wait and come up with a plan so when he becomes red, we can take him out immediately and prevent further carnage.”
A shiver runs down Skizz’s spine. It feels horrible to be discussing killing his best friend when they had been so close only hours before. Despite everything Impulse has done, he doesn’t actually want him to die. He still loves his brother, no matter what.
Even though he’d love nothing more than to punch him in his stupid face right now.
“Skizz?” says Martyn softly. “You okay?”
Skizz clears his throat. “Y-Yeah. I think I will be.”
Eventually.

random headcanons i have for each om! character teehee
hi it's been a while since ive posted some hcs bc uni has been kicking my a$$! luckily i only have a few papers to tidy up and im done. here r some hcs for each obey me character that ive accumulated over the past few months wink wonk
most are random but some constants you'll find are what i think they smell like, languages they can speak (other than their native (demon/angel) and eng/jp), and music tastes !
lucifer
i have a strong feeling that he showers twice a day: in the morning after waking up and at night before going to bed
his cologne is probably the type that will last in an elevator for like a week after he uses it once. i dont think this mf ever smells like anything other than his cologne
has a secret folder on his phone of semi-nudes and other scandalous pics from when he felt sexy at the time omg
aside from demon language/eng/jp he can speak french and knows latin
listens to classical stuff yea but he also listens to diavolos mixtapes (re: diavolo's section)
not a fan of sweets but will eat sweet things when craving
really bland sense of humor...borderline cringey 😭✋🏻
mammon
has gone to google images and searched for "inspirational quotes tumblr" "gold aesthetic tumblr" & "relatable crush post tumblr" then reposts it onto his socials or just taps thru them and giggles bc he relates
his cologne doesnt last as long as lucifers and probably smells common. he has to reapply a lot but it's a people pleasing smell. it's cheaper hence the constant reapplying
he probably does have an expensive bottle but is the type to totally overspray...eek
he is canonically a car guy 🥲 and probably tells the one in his room good morning & good night + kisses the hood every once in a while. has tons of car magazines
he doesnt really speak other languages but has attempted to learn spanish before
listens to whatever is on the radio. doesnt rly stan anyone but he eventually will listen to mc's playlist and mc's playlist ONLY
levi
lurks on mc's socials ALL THE TIMEEEE like he will rewatch ur stories and scroll thru ur feed and overanalyze ur tweets/rts or blog posts. if ur mc isnt the type to use sns much he still googles ur name all the damn time just to find any sites u might be on fjdjdjdjskks
probably streams on whatever youtube or twitch devildom site equivalent there is, but only has like 40 or so followers. which he is okay with!
until he sees someone else who gets more attention than him. then the envy starts kicking in bad. especially if they suck 🧍🏻‍♀️
classic gamer boy smell. you know, sweat, tears, must, and (sometimes) axe deodorant. lucifer has to do a scent check before he goes out to any event & lets him use his cologne. how sweet!
kpop stan!! more girl groups than anything and his ults are probably GIRLS GENERATION, wonder girls, twice, loona, & red velvet
cried when ioi disbanded and refused to leave his room. the only thing u could hear was downpour on loop at full blast
can also speak korean & communicate in echolocation like dolphins 😏
satan
listens to country music you cant change my mind
smells like whatever environment he is in. he doesnt really have a designated smell just throws some deodorant on and goes about his day.
he's sooooo bad at driving...gets road rage way too often so his license has been REVOKED
but hes totally a backseat driver. needs to be sedated on long trips
do not let him watch finding nemo when luke asks to watch it. it's not worth it. he will cause mass destruction.
if he was a human or lived long term in the human world he totally has the ability to be a doctor
is studying as many languages as possible, but he mostly knows latin & french & german etc etc. wants to learn all the dead languages out of curiousity
asmo
dont think this mf has ever held down a relationship. ever
he doesnt compromise much & is not willing to change his lifestyle to fit an s/o into it. you keep up with how he lives or it just isnt meant to be (but dont worry! he'll eventually learn...maybe,,,,)
has the hardest time out of everyone when it comes to breaking bad habits
his smell varies bc he uses a variety of perfumes (whatever is the most popular at the time) but he probably sticks to floral and fresh scents. he never uses generic people pleaser scents like mammon
listens to electropop, mainstream pop, & some alternative rock
as for languages he too knows french, spanish, italian, etc. in general, if it's a romance language he knows it!
opposite of lucifer in the sense where he loves sweets and will refrain from eating too many bitter things
i think we all know that asmo is the biggest rockstar of the group! he's probably been in a boy band at least once, but now he makes his own music
has tried to teach mammon how to sing once. ended up in a broken piano and bleeding ears...
beel
i feel like he is SO SHY
like unless ur close to him he will not start conversations or anything
i think he listens to r&b a lot ! and jazz 😎 maybe rock as well
smells like ur typical athlete with undertones of wet wipes. he carries them around bc he likes to clean his hands before he eats & is prepared for when theres no sink nearby
he can drive and he drives really well. no rough turns, parallel parks perfectly, and never has problems with merging
driving with beel is probably really soothing. left hand is steering the other is gripping ur thigh 😫
dont think hes really fluent in any other language but hes probably semi fluent in korean because levi wanted beel to help him out
definitely know how to order food in practically every language tho HAHAHA
belphie
he reminds me of randall from monsters inc
smells kinda musty IM SORRY but not the way levi does hes more like the kind of musty u feel or smell when it's a shitty morning
but that's only because hes so lazy, when he cleans up hes like satan
has definitely murdered multiple people before. mc is not the first 😐✋🏻
with that being said belphie has been put into prison at least twice when visiting the human world, the mf had such a strong hatred for humans theres no way he never got into trouble before
lucifer probably broke him out and they used the pen thingies from men in black to erase everyones memory of that 🙄
dont think he listens to anything other than music that'll put him to sleep. really likes lazy song by bruno mars but thinks that bruno mars put too much effort into the song. should have been one acapella verse and then finish
similar to beel hes only semi fluent in one language, probably french bc of lucifer. doesnt remember much but knows a couple of lullabies and bedtime stories
the sandman used to be his bff until they drifted. they do, however, like and comment on each other's sns posts.
diavolo
once he found out who nicki minaj was he became her #1 stan
def an ariana grande stan too 😌
choreographs dances when hes stressed...idk just seems like a diavolo thing to do
also makes rly bad soundcloud rap music sometimes. turns to poetry when hes feeling emo but only lucifer knows this. barbatos is suspicious of him but doesnt have enough evidence to confirm.
his dad is like hudson abadeer from adventure time aka marceline's dad? something must have influenced him to want to unite the 3 realms + he would need the approval to do so, so his dad must be more chill than all the others before him 🧍🏻‍♀️ IDK ok anyway
currently going through his hamilton phase bc of mc. whether mc's intent was to get him hooked onto it or just to explain it bc of something he saw online, he tells everyone that he found out abt it bc of mc!
this man cannot drive his skills are only second to jumin han
not too fond of many languages but knows the widely spoken ones like spanish, mandarin, etc. if it's taught in high school he knows it
smells like a las vegas casino. not sure why but i feel like he does. but there's also an interesting & nice smell to him if he embraces you. it's a smell you cant quite identify. but it smells nostalgic, it's mysterious, and it's tempting.
barbatos
very calm demeanor but underneath hes WILD hes probably done everything at least once oof
he just has a lot of control and stability over himself (must be nice!)
on a more angsty note i feel like he might have had his heartbroken sO BAD IDK he is hurting and maybe that's why hes so willing to obey diavolo and not abuse his time lord power thingies bc he learned his lesson the hard way
mans is so smart he knows every language you could switch languages mid conversation with him and he wouldnt be thrown off. he'd probably start speaking it too.
BUT HE SPEAKS VIET P E R F E C T L Y
listens to the same stuff as lucifer but also likes eminem. likes the movie 8 mile but criticized it heavily
have you ever been to a chinese herb shop? naturally, he smells like that. his room probably smells like it too. he doesnt really have a significant smell like some of the others
when he bakes he smells like whatever hes baking tho
one of the few out of everyone listed to have been able to travel to literally everywhere
solomon
was probably on kitchen nightmares once, but only to get feedback from chef gordon ramsay. then he used his magic to prevent the episode from airing...
was in an orchestra, one of the best times of his life. played the violin. asmo watched him in the audience once, but didnt approach him until well after that performance.
he CANNOT sing. he can, however, rap.
doesnt listen to music. he listens to podcasts! but every now and then he turns on background music, but prefers it to be instrumental stuff
never wears sunglasses. also does not have a driver's license. cannot drive a regular car. could maybe fly an airplane.
due to his immortality he has learned almost every language to exist, but finds himself speaking mandarin the most. knows most dialects too
similar smell to barbatos but u can also smell some sunscreen on him too. like, generic beach day suncreen
he has a lot of pact marks, so he once had the idea to match foundation to his skin. it took him two weeks but he eventually perfected a combination. yes he will help u find ur perfect shade if u ask him to
simeon
another country music man. has also made a tiktok or two to that one song that goes "he cant even bait a hook." they are private tho
angel country music exists and simeon invented it
if he visits the human world and wears more causal clothing he probably tucks his shirt into his pants
wears a speedo at the beach i tell u, speedo at the beach
he can speak german...i can feel it
uses his pointer finger to type and holds the phone like 2 inches away from his face so sometimes his nose will push a key hence all his typos
has no signature smell. he simply smells like your favorite scent all the time. if multiple people are around him at once, everyone smells a different smell. it's pretty rad
"what does he smell like to himself?" u may be asking. hmm...a church? 💀
luke
his first pet was a goldfish and a few months before the exchange program happened, he was given a koi pond!
secretly likes hanging out with levi sometimes just to play with henry. makes him miss his pet fish back home
so his favorite movie is probably finding nemo and he threw a fit when nemo touched the butt
luke is probably learning german bc of simeon, though he'd like to learn more of the dead languages just for fun
i dont think he listens to music often or has any preferences, he just listens to whatever is playing on the radio
but he finds himself listening to the music mc listens to
smells like freshly baked goods all the time. or fresh laundry. but like, not combined. just depends on the day

Shinsou, Bakugou, Todoroki, and Kaminari Soulmate AU
Shinsou
A time frame where you are near your soulmate is repeated until you meet them
"And the winner is... Midoriya Izuku!!!"
Present Mics voice rang through the stadium as Deku stood in the ring, staring at the boy he was fighting
A purple haired boy, named Shinsou something
You stared at him as he angrily walked off the stage, and as he paused while he listened to his classmates cheer him on
You felt bad for him, something in his eyes told you this match meant a lot to him
You thought about going down to talk to him, but then Ochako grabbed your arm
"Deku won! I'm so glad!"
Deciding to continue watching the fights instead, you sat back in your seat
"And the winner is... Midoryia Izuku!!!"
Present Mics voice rang throughout the stadium as Deku stood in the - Shinsou looked upset...
He stomped off of the stage, only stopping when his class mates cheered for him
People seemed to be cheering for Deku... but he did good too
You wanted to go congratulate him, so you stood up from your seat
"Y/n? Where are you going? Oh! Are you going to congratulate Deku? I'll come with you!" With that, Ochako dragged you off to see Deku, causing you to miss Shinsou watching you
"And the winner is... Midoriya Izuku!!!
Shinsou seemed shocked, he just stood there, looking around at the audience
Was he gauging their reaction?
No, he was looking at you
You dont know why, but you stood up from your seat, ignoring Ochako's questions as you ran down the stairs to where you knew Shinsou would be
You ran down the hall, where he was barely entering, and you paused
You stared at each other, both unsure of exactly what was happening
"Uh... good job on the match!"
"Thanks..."
Something was off, you both felt it
You should just leave it at that, but you want to stay
"This... might be a weird question since I dont even know your name... but are you busy on Friday?"
Luckily, your weird case of deja vu seemed to stop after that
Tumblr media
Bakugou
You switch bodies with your soulmate within the months coming up to you meeting them
What in the hell is going on
One second you were walking home from school and the next
You were standing in front of a green haired boy?
He seemed confused by your state as well, but ran off before you could ask what was up
"Come on Bakugou, let's go."
The two boys standing behind you pulled you with them, and you frowned
"Wha-"
Just as suddenly as it had started, it stopped, and you were back where you were
Except, your bag was now on the floor with its contents strewn about
A few months later, you were taking the U.A. entrance exam
Everything was going fine when
Suddenly you were on the other side of the test zone, surrounded by broken robots
You looked around, seeing some of the other test takers
Seeing a robot coming, your first instinct was to use your quirk to destroy it, but explosions came out of your hands?
The last thing you heard before you were back to normal was a very familiar voice screaming
First day of class! You were super excited- now on your way to become a pro hero
Except- your teacher was insane
A test on the first day of school!?? And we might get expelled???? Fucccc
You were so worried you barely listened to what Aizawa sensei was saying other than you could use your quirks, but then you heard a familiar name
Bakugou was called up to demonstrate, and you stared at him, confused
Now that you thought about it, the green haired boy next to you also looked really familiar
But! This isnt the time, so you pushed those thoughts aside and focused on how you would do the tests
Everything went fine so far, and now you were back to the ball throw
"Y/n, you're up."
You sighed, walking into the circle, ready to use your quirk and throw the ball when -
"What the fuck?"
You were standing further back now, wait, that's you
Aizawa looked pissed, "are you going to throw it or not?"
You watched as your body looked at him, growling, "I already threw the fucking ball! What the hell is going on?"
He turned his head to the side, only to see... himself
What
You two stared at each other, confused, until you pointed at him
"You're the one I've been switching bodies with!?"
"Huh? That was fucking you??"
Aizawa, seemingly understanding, pulled you both to the side
"Congrats, you found your soulmates. Now, y/l/n, as soon as you're back in your body, we still need to test you."
You nodded and he walked away, leaving you with Bakugou, who only growled and stomped away
It only took a few more minutes for you to switch back, and you finished your test fine
A few days later, you were walking down the hallways after school when Bakugou ran up to you
"*cough* so... since were soulmates... I guess we should get to know each other.... are you busy tonight?"
Tumblr media
Todoroki
You can feel the same temperature as your soulmate
It was weird
When you were little, it always seemed like your right side was freezing
But your left side was burning
There was even a time when the left side of your face was burning so badly you thought it would melt off
But it later stopped, and you only felt the cold
You wondered what happened, you missed the warmth that balanced you out
It comforted you, and you were forced to compensate with hoodies and heat packs
Recently, you had started school at U.A., in the hero's course
It wasn't hard to figure out Todoroki was your soulmate
His constant use of ice on his right side, and your constant coldness on your right
The burn scar on his face only brought bad memories of when you were sobbing into your pillow at the burning pain and holding an ice pack as tightly as you could to it
Then knowing that he could use fire on his other side, it all made sense
But - he wanted nothing to do with you
It wasn't that you told him you were soulmates and he rejected you, but he seemed set on avoiding everyone as much as possible, making it impossible for you to do anything
Then, the Sports festival came
Deku and he were fighting
You were practically freezing with how much he was using his ice
But then, the heat came back
Flames burst out of Todorokis left, and you felt them inside of you
It almost hurt, but with how badly you had missed the warmth, you were so excited
"Yes, Todoroki!!!!!"
He looked up at you, seeing you cheer as loud as you could for him, and he smiled softly thinking of the support from his new peers
After the match, he was walking back to the waiting room when you ran up to him
"Great job Todoroki!"
He didn't know why you were being so supportive right now, but he smiled softly at you and gave you a quiet thanks before walking past
That was progress!
So, you took a risk and
"I missed the heat, you know. I'm guessing you have plenty of reasons you stopped using it, but you left me pretty cold all the time buddy"
He stopped, and slowly turned around with furrowed brows
He remembered all the times he was using his ice only to suddenly feel enveloped by a warmth that shouldn't be there
Or when his mother poured boiling water on him, under all of the burning there was a presence of cold
"That... was you?"
You nodded, "Todoroki, I think we're soulmates. "
He didn't say anything, and just stared at you, before pulling you into a tight hug
He felt so... warm

Kaminari
You and your soulmate can communicate through your thoughts - but only when you're close
You were taking the U.A. entrance exam, and god were you fucked
You had no time to study, focusing on your physical training instead for that portion of the test
'Fuck fuck fuck'
'Whoa, what's wrong there friend?'
Uhm, excuse me??
Who said that
'Uh, who are you?'
'Kaminari Denki, you?
You remembered hearing one time when you were little about types of soulmates, and remembered how some could talk through your thoughts
'Y/l/n y/n.... so, were soulmates?'
'Oh ya!!! How cool!! Wait, are you smart? I'm taking a big test right now and god I'm going to fail.'
'Wait, me too... what test'
'U.A entrance exam'
You looked around the room, blushing at the thought of your soulmate being in there with you
'Okay, we gotta help each other, I have 2 brain cells'
'Well, that's more than I have... but let's do this soulmate!!!'
Somehow, you got in, even with your collective 3 brain cells
You hadn't been able to talk to Denki since then, you guessed there was a limit to how far you could be
So, on the first day of class, you were determined to find him, only -
"Which one of you is y/n?"
A blonde boy with a black stripe in his hair burst through the door, scanning around the room
"Denki!?"
He smiled at your response, and ran over to you and hugged you
"We did it we did it we did it!!!"
You could only laugh as your classmates immediately decided you two were the weird ones

Shadows of the Night | Vampire AU
dusk | night | dawn
Billy Hargrove doesn’t remember the last time he’s seen sunlight, or the last time he’s stepped inside a church. For over 500 years he’s been a vagabond, a wanderer, searching for a place to call home - until his travels land him in Hawkins, Indiana and his whole existence as he knows it is turned upside down.
pairing: billy hargrove x fem!reader rating: m (blood, a tint of smut, abuse, language)
A/N: WOW SORRY THIS TOOK FOREVER TO POST BUT THANK U FOR ALL THE RESPONSES AND FOR YOUR PATIENCE ILU ALL
Tagged: @killer-queen-xo @ephmrl-love @charmed-asylum @aillle8 @mattysheelies
Part 2 - Night
You were panicking.
Your foot was glued to the gas pedal, racing to beat the clock as time continued to dwindle by. You cursed the long and windy roads in Hawkins, they felt like they went on forever.
Stealthily and quickly, you managed to switch out of your heels and fishnet stockings while driving, it was a skill that was now second nature to you. Reaching behind you, you grabbed your converse, shoving one foot in at a time while you pulled over a large sweatshirt over you, effectively covering the skin tight dress you had on.
As soon as you pulled into your street, you made a sharp stop before your house. Grabbing the makeup wipes from your glove compartment, you hurriedly erased any evidence, wiping the ruby red lipstick off your lips, and the fake vampire bite off of your neck.
Incidentally, you also managed to wipe away the concealer that hid the dark purple marks around your neck.
You ran your hand through your hair, trying your best to smooth out the large curls that bounced with every shake of your head. When you felt presentable enough, you finally pulled into your driveway. Your eyes were glued to the front window where the faint glow of the TV was illuminating the living room floor.
“Fuck, fuck, fuck” you quietly muttered to yourself.
You threw your heels and fishnet stockings in the back of your car, grabbing your large purse that you had purposely placed there as well. Stepping out of your car, you composed yourself, trying hard to calm your frantic beating heart. With a deep inhale, you took the cautious steps up your porch, opening the front door and was greeted with the harsh scent of beer hitting your nose.
“D-dad? I-I’m home”
You tip-toed in the foyer, poking your head into the living room where you were met with the back of your father’s head, several beer cans were discarded around his feet.
You waited for a response, for anything, but were met with silence.
Silence was either a bad thing, or a good thing. You held your breath as you quietly walked over to him, your eyes shut as you pleaded to whatever gods above that he was passed out. When you finally reached him, you let out a sigh of relief.
He was knocked out, his mouth wide open with a half empty beer can in his hand.
You didn’t want him to spill the beer, so you gently reached over to his hand, trying your best to pull it out of his grasp but his other hand suddenly shot to your wrist, squeezing it tight. A yelp escaped from your mouth.
“You’re late” he slurred.
Your anxiety was through the roof, tears threatened to spill from your eyes. “I-I’m sorry Dad, Amber and I lost track of time at dinner, I promise it won’t happen again” you blubbered out, hoping that he’d believe your lie. He wasn’t easing up on his grip, but after a few seconds he threw your wrist back to you.
“Don’t let it fucking happen again” he hissed, taking a large chug.
You nodded quietly at him, your other hand gently rubbing where his painful grip was. You were sure to see marks on it tomorrow but you were an expert at covering up your bruises.
You soundlessly made your way upstairs, not wanting to rile him up any longer. You shut your bedroom door and rested your back behind it, sliding down and letting all the anxiety disseminate in that moment. You held your face in your hands, trying to remember to breathe through it all.
He wasn’t always like this. You have fond memories of a happy childhood, white picket fence and all. But out of the blue, your mother had up and left the both of you, claiming that this wasn’t the life for her. She had disappeared into thin air and you hated her for it.
It was then your father turned to drinking and started to blame you for everything. His problems at his job? Your fault. Your mother leaving the both of you? Your fault. His alcoholism? Your fault.
Everything in his eyes was your fault, you could do no right, even when you pulled the best grades in Hawkins.
You became his punching bag, his release for all his anger, his issues, and you had no escape.
You lifted your head back up and glanced up at the calendar that rested above your desk. November 7th had a large circle over it, it would be the day you turned 18 - it would be the day you finally could escape his wrath.
“Just one more week, just one more week and I’m outta here” you muttered to yourself.
You weren’t sure where to go, but you didn’t care. Since you were still 17 you weren’t legally allowed to leave the house yet. You graduated from Hawkins High with top marks but you decided to put university on pause - wanting to taste the world before you settled on school again. You had some money saved up from odd jobs here and there but you wanted to stay far away from the monster in the living room. He would effectively have no power over you and for the first time in your life, you felt like life wouldn’t be so bad.
You felt your phone buzzing, you pulled it out of your sweatshirt and swiped it open.
amber: hey u made it home ok?
y/n: yeah, i’m home thnx for checking up
Amber was your best friend, she had urged you multiple times to go talk to Hopper, but you knew it would just cause more issues than solve them. You were strong, you could withstand him for just one more week.
Your mind suddenly remembered the pale boy with the vampire costume. You quickly searched through your contacts until you found his name. Your thumb hovered over the texting symbol, debating on whether bringing a boy into your life would be worth it.
But something about him was … different … you couldn’t put your finger on it but he seemed off. He was incredibly gorgeous though, and you were surprised that he, out of all people in the party, paid any attention to you. Not to mention you had never seen the guy before, and everyone in Hawkins knew everyone.
“Fuck it” you said to yourself.
y/n: hey billy, it’s y/n from the party?
Instantly the text bubble appeared, you were surprised at how quickly he responded.
billy: hey gorgeous, sad to see you leave so early
What you didn’t know however, was that he was parked right across the street. His eyes were hyper-focused on your bedroom window. He was debating on whether scaling the tree or just watching you from afar. He knew it was a creep move but he didn’t care, he just wanted to make sure you were safe.
You let out a snort as you read his text.
y/n: ha, quite the charmer are you?
billy: i tend to charm the ladies here and there, what r u up to tonite?
y/n: bed, maybe watch some netflix, nothing too crazy.
billy: when can i see u again?
Billy was impatient, he had to catch a glimpse of you before the day broke again.
y/n: idk … we could hang tomorrow? maybe grab lunch?
An innocent lunch wouldn’t hurt you thought to yourself. What’s the harm in getting to know a cute boy?
Billy let out a huff, damn being a vampire.
billy: can’t, i’m busy all day and afternoon. maybe we can grab dinner if u want? i can pay ;)
You felt your heart start to race. Was he asking you out on a date? He hardly knew you.
y/n: r u asking me out on a date? lol
billy: if you want it to be
y/n: you hardly know me
billy: i can get to know you tomorrow night
A tiny smile appeared on your lips.
y/n: sure lol. pick me up tomorrow at 8. my address is 3843 willow lane. dont knock on my door just give me a text when youre here.
billy: sounds good, sweet dreams gorgeous ;)
You locked your phone and tossed it onto your bed. You stood back up, pulling off your sweatshirt and kicking off your converse. You unzipped your dress, letting it fall to the ground and pulled on a pair of cotton shorts and your Hawkins High sweatshirt.
You grabbed your laptop from your desk and walked over to your bed, pulling over the covers and settling yourself into the warmth of your comforter. You opened up your laptop and proceeded to open up Netflix to help you fall asleep.
Billy’s leg impatiently bounced up and down as he sat in his car. He watched as the light in your room turned off and as the light in the living room also turned off. He figured whoever was in the living room had also gone to bed, so he decided to make a move.
Moving stealthily and quickly, he ran over to your lawn, hoping that none of the neighbors would spot him. With his cat like reflexes he climbed up the tree outside of your room with ease, perching himself on a large branch that luckily extended out to your room.
His eyes scanned your bedroom, posters of different bands were hung up on your wall, a white desk sat in the corner, but his heart leapt when he finally landed on your sleeping figure. The soft glow of the laptop illuminated your face as you quietly slept through whatever TV show you were watching.
Even with your hair messily scattered on the pillow and your cheek pressed up against your arm you looked beautiful, breathtakingly gorgeous. His fingers were aching to touch you, even if just for a second.
“Oh fuck this”
His hands found themselves on the bottom of your window, he gently lifted it up, opening enough space for him to squeeze into your bedroom. With a soft thud, he landed into your room.  He waited a second to see if anyone or anything had been awakened by the noise, but luckily he was met with silence.
He walked over to your sleeping figure, he so badly wanted to crawl right beside you and hold you against his body but he fought strongly against it. He instead, sat right beside you, watching you as your chest rose and fell with every breath you took.
His fingers found themselves playing with the tendrils of your hair. He gently pulled back your hair to reveal your supple neck, but his eyes widened at what he saw instead.
Hot anger coursed through his body like poison. His eyes turned a dark red and his fangs promptly appeared. Billy was ready to attack, and your panicked demeanor at the party suddenly made sense to him.
His knuckles brushed up against the dark marks on your neck. The feeling of your skin on his hand sent shivers down his spine, it soothed his anger as it slowly dissipated out of him. He leaned down and pressed a soft kiss to your cheek.
“I promise to get you out of here … if it’s the last thing I do” he whispered to you.
He felt you stir in your sleep, shifting around soundlessly. You cracked open your eyes as you felt a figure hover over you. You lifted your head up, looking around your bedroom.
But there was no one there, just the soft breeze of the wind rustling your posters in your bedroom.
You frowned, throwing your legs over your bed and walking to your window. You poked your head out, looking to see if anyone was out there, but you were met with the still of the night.
You shut your window close and threw yourself back into bed.
“Huh, must have been dreaming … “ you said to yourself as sleep quickly overtook you again.
You awoke the following morning with a stinging pain in your wrist. You lifted it up, inspecting the dull ache as the dark marks began to stain your skin. You let out an annoyed sigh, walking over to your bathroom and promptly starting a hot shower.
After washing your hair and scrubbing your skin, you then did your usual routine of concealing your bruises. You popped some Tylenol in hopes that it would soothe the ache in your wrist.
You waited to see if Billy would text you throughout the day, but you were disappointed to find that he didn’t. You didn’t let it deter you from the date you had planned with him tonight.
You stayed in your bedroom for most of Saturday, only heading downstairs to grab a bite to eat. Your father mostly ignored your presence as you did his.
As it was nearing 8, you went downstairs to the living room to find your father still glued to the couch with a beer in his hand.
“Dad?”
His eyes were glued to the TV. He acknowledged your presence by letting out a grunt.
“I’m gonna grab dinner with Amber tonight if that’s okay … “ your voice trailed off as you anxiously chewed the inside of your cheek.
He rolled his eyes towards you, they were glossy and bloodshot.
“Fine”
You nodded at him, uttering a thank you and walking back up stairs. As soon as you reached your bedroom, you began to plan your outfit, You figured jeans and a cute top would be good enough for tonight. You kept your makeup simple, some mascara and lipgloss, you weren’t necessarily trying to woo him tonight, just getting to know him.
It was only a date anyways.
At 8 on the dot your phone buzzed, you were trying to play it cool, but you were lying to yourself if you said you didn’t feel a little excited. You hadn’t been on a date in a long time, let alone with a gorgeous boy.
billy: hey beautiful, i’m outside
Grabbing a light jacket, you walked down the stairs, trying not to seem hurried in front of your dad.
“I’ll be back around 10 dad” you told him as you left. But yet again, you were met with silence. You were trying not to let anxiety gnaw at your stomach, you refused to let your dad ruin your date. So you quietly left your house and ran over to the blue car that was parked across the street.
Billy was lucky enough to find a close friend of Walt’s living in the next town over. He had texted Walt around 4 AM to see if he could spot anyone who could house him for the next couple of days. Victoria Marino - a sweet old vampire who had lived for almost as long as Walt was happy enough to have Billy stay over. It had been years since she had company, especially a vampire stay at her home.
“Walt told me everything” she told him. Billy towered over her, she was a frail little thing, but was sharp as hell. She gently grasped his shoulders, “You musn’t give up on love Billy, fight for her. Finding your Beloved is a powerful thing for us vampires, human or not”
He was more than happy to have someone on his side - even though he knew Walt was still vehemently against all of this.
You caught him standing outside his car, a pair of aviators rested against his nose, his mouth in a wide grin. His heart sped up as you approached him, he instinctively wished to scoop you up in his arms and place kisses all over you, hold you close until the dawn broke, but instead he controlled himself as you stood in front of him.
With a soft smile you greeted him, “Hi”
He returned the smile back, “Hey”
He promptly then walked over to the passenger side, opening the door for you, “Our reservation at Enzo’s awaits for us”
You raised your eyebrows, “Enzo’s? That’s pretty expensive, you didn’t have to go all out”
Billy shrugged, “It’s no big thing, it is the nicest place in town”
You stared at him for a brief second, wondering why on earth this guy you’d just met was pulling all the stops for you. With the slight shake of your head you let out a soft laugh and entered his car. You gazed around in awe at how nice his car was, everything looked brand new, it even still had that brand new smell.
“Holy shit you have a really nice car” you told him as he sat down in the driver’s seat.
“Ah, you should have seen my 78′ Camaro, that engine purred”
“Big car guy eh?”
A smirked donned on his lips, “Yeah, I guess you could say that”
The car ride to Enzo’s was filled with good music and Billy asking you 101 questions about yourself - which you didn’t mind, but you found it odd that whenever you asked about his family, he instantly changed the subject. Anything personal about him was very vague and very brief.
You didn’t want to admit to yourself that it raised warning bells in your head, you wanted to stay positive about the experience, hopeful that maybe this guy would be the one you’d spend the rest of your life with.
He was a gentleman the whole way there, letting you pick the music, not speaking over you, genuinely interested in everything you had to say. It was refreshing to say the least.
When the both of you arrived at Enzo’s he instantly ran out and over to your side, opening the door for you. He extended his hand for you to take and you took it, gently pulling you out of your seat.
He tossed his key to the valet parking, “Take care of her will ya buddy?” he patted the guy on his shoulder, handing him a 50 dollar bill.
fuck I think this guy is loaded you thought to yourself.
Billy wrapped his arm around you, the both of you walking step by step into the restaurant. The gesture made you feel all warm and tingly inside, for once in your life you actually felt safe around a male presence.
The two of you were quickly seated, Billy specifically asking for a private table.
“Of course Mr. Hargrove, please follow me” the host said.
With his arm still wrapped around your shoulder, you glanced up at him, “Billy, seriously, you didn’t have to go all out … you only just met me yesterday … “ you muttered to him.
He shook his head as he pulled your chair out for you, “No, please, this is nothing” he waved your comment off.
You sat down on the chair, watching as Billy came around and sat across from you.
The entire dinner went pleasantly well. Besides some things that made you raise your eyebrow (He told you he was deathly allergic to garlic, and he rarely ate his food, just picked around it). Billy was nothing but kind, warming and inviting to you. It helped that he was charming as hell, and by the time dinner finished, you could see yourself going on another date with him - which usually doesn’t happen.
The drive back to your house was filled with laughter and long talks. You both bonded over bands and artists you both love, about movies, about tv shows. You truly didn’t want the night to end. As he pulled up across the street from your house you hesitated on leaving, anxiety started to pool within your stomach, dreading to be back in the same house as that monster you called your father.
“This was an amazing night Billy, truly, the most fun I’ve had in such a long time” you told him.
He gave you a wide grin, shrugging casually, “Well what can I say?”
The both of you stared at each other in silence, your eyes moving down to his lips. Courage surged through you and you leaned towards him, your one hand placed on his cheek as you placed your lips on his. Billy was surprised to say the least, his blue eyes widened in shock as he felt your soft lips on his, but the shock quickly wore off as he melted into your touch. The warmth of your hand burned the cold of his cheek. You gently pulled away, nuzzling your nose onto his.
Breathlessly, he spoke, “Does this mean I get to see you again?”
You nodded, your thumb rubbing soft circles over the apple of his cheek, “Text me tonight?”
Instead of responding, he placed a chaste kiss on your lips. He wanted the feeling of your lips on his to last forever, and now that he knew he was open to kiss you, he never wanted to stop.
He watched as you got out of his car and made your way back into your house. Before you opened the front door however, you turned around, faced his car and gave him a small wave.
You shut the door quietly behind you, resting your body on it. You had a crush and it was bad. You were grinning like a fool in love and for the first time, in a very long time, things didn’t seem so bad.
You quietly then walked through the foyer until you reached the living room. The TV still on from earlier, and your dad still sitting in the same position. You poked your head in, “Hi dad, I’m back … it’s 9:45 … I’m early” you meekly announced to him.
He gave you no response as he continued to chug his beer. You took that as a good sign.
The minute you reached your bedroom, your phone started to buzz. Instantly you pulled it out of your pocket and smiled stupidly at the text.
billy: did u make it in okay?
y/n: yes im fine lol, i want to see you again … is tomorrow a possibility?
billy: hmm … idk … dinner was kinda boring … ;)
y/n: ha ha ha very funny
billy: of course we can meet up again tomorrow, id love to
y/n: great! i want to take you to the quarry, its amazing, u can see all the stars out there
billy: getting all romantical on me now?
y/n: hey you started this lol, besides a little romance with a cute guy never hurt anyone
billy: you calling me cute?
y/n: duh who else would i be referring to?
Your fingers had never been more glued to your phone. You spent all night texting Billy until you ended up passing out with your phone gripped in your hand. By the time you had passed out, Billy was already getting ready for bed. Victoria had been watching him the whole time as he sat in her living room couch, his fingers typing away furiously with every text he received. Billy swore he heard her mutter an ‘Oy, youths … ‘ at one point which made him chuckle.
It was almost noon by the time you had awakened, the sun beamed in brightly through your bedroom windows. You pulled your phone towards you to check the time but was surprised to see a text from Billy at 4:04 AM.
billy: sweet dreams beautiful girl … <3
The text sent butterflies swarming to your stomach, you threw a pillow over your face to cover up the shit-eating grin you were currently sporting, but a sudden loud banging from your door quickly dissolved all of those emotions.
“There’s no fucking food in the house! Make yourself useful for once and go shopping!”
Your father’s voice roared behind the door, instinctively you pulled the covers over your head, fearing that he was going to come in and hurl more insults at you. But when you heard his footsteps continue down the hall you let out a sigh of relief.
You then quickly got ready for the day, running out towards the local market and buying food for you and your father - not that you ate most of the time at home, you were always feeling too nervous or anxious to eat at home. So you always made excuses to meet up with friends to grab lunch or dinner at a cafe or restaurant nearby.
You were hoping to hear back from Billy throughout the day, but just like the day before he was silent, not a call or text from him. You tried not to let it get to you, you distracted yourself by cleaning up around your room, or watching a show on Netflix, but by the time the sun had started to set you finally received a text from him.
billy: hey beautiful, im on the way
Billy too had fallen asleep in his coffin with his phone glued to his hand. You were the first thing on his mind the instant he awoke - already forming plans for the two of you.
Victoria was kind enough to always lay a full glass of blood for him every morning. The last thing she needed was a love-struck vampire to go into blood-lust mode, there’s no way a vampire can control their actions when going into that head space. They become vicious, relentless and absolutely terrifying. It has happened to Billy only once before and if it wasn’t for Walt being around he was pretty sure that Billy would have slaughtered more humans than intended.
You swiped your phone to unlock it, fingers working quickly as you texted him back,
y/n: c ya soon ;)
You held your phone close to your chest when you realized that you were nowhere ready to go out looking the way you did. You threw your phone on your bed, quickly hopping into the shower and prepping your face. You kept your outfit casual again, with a pair of high-rise jeans, black boots and a cute sweater.
When you heard your phone buzzing, signaling that Billy was outside, you realized one important detail - telling your father that you’d be going out.
There was no way you were going to miss hanging out with Billy, but you knew that if you were to tell your drunk of a father that you were heading out without notifying him earlier, that there was no way that he’d let you out. You glanced over at your window, it was the only option left.
You opened up your window, poking your head outside. Billy watched you with curious eyes from his car as you shimmied out of your bedroom window, reaching towards the large branch from the tree outside your room. Once you were safely perched on the branch, you were able to quickly scale down the large oak tree. You landed softly on the grass, taking in your surroundings before making a mad dash to the car parked across the street.
Billy unlocked his car as you flung open the passenger side door, quickly sitting down and pulling the seat belt over you.
Billy wasn’t stupid - he knew exactly what was going on since he saw the dark marks on your neck. Everything started to make sense to him, your punctuality, the fact he wasn’t allowed near your house. He’d even caught wind of your anxious ticks, the way you bounced your leg restlessly at dinner last night, or how you’d constantly be glancing at the time on your phone.
He didn’t want to pry, it was a delicate subject to touch upon. He just wanted you to be safe - and he only had less than a week to convince you to come with him to New York.
Billy played it stupid to keep you comfortable.
“Sneaking out today are we?” he smirked as he pulled out of your neighborhood.
You let out a nervous laugh, rubbing your neck, “Y-yeah, you know how parents can be”
Billy wouldn’t know, he hasn’t seen his in over 500 years and Walt always let him do whatever he wanted, just as long as he played it safe.
“So, where is this quarry that you speak of?” he asked, pulling up his phone and opening up Google maps.
“No need for GPS, I can guide you there, just take a left at this upcoming road, then keep going straight until you reach Richland Road, then it’s just a straight shot from there on out. You can’t miss it, trust me”
He nodded at your words, pulling out of the neighborhood and following your guidance until he reached the infamous quarry - and you were right, it was the perfect place to see stars.
You eagerly stepped out of his car, your eyes gazing up to the dark sky that was illuminated by thousands if not hundreds of bright speckles.
In all of his 500 years of living, Billy had never seen such a thing. Sure he’d been all around the world, but he had never seen the sky lit up so bright until tonight. He followed you, stepping out of his car, his eyes glued to the sky. 
“Shit, you weren’t kidding ... “ he muttered to you.
“Yeah ... I’m gonna miss it” you spoke wistfully.
His eyes shot back down to you, his lips puckered into a frown. “What do you mean?”
You broke out of your gaze, not realizing what you had just said. A half smile formed on your lips as you tucked a strand of hair behind your ear. You rested against the trunk of his car, “I’m uh, leaving Hawkins, in about 5 days ... I’m turning 18 and I’m leaving”
There was a sense of hesitation in your voice, Billy heard it loud and clear. But the fact that you were planning on leaving right when he was supposed to head back to New York ... it was as if fate was working it’s magic. His heart wanted to leap with joy, but he played it cool, calm and collected. He joined you by the trunk of his car, resting his body against it as well.
“Where you heading to?”
You shrugged, “Don’t know, haven’t figured it out”
Billy nodded, still trying to play it cool. “You know, I have a place in New York”
You turned to face him, “Oh yeah?” There was a pregnant pause, “You propositioning me?” a slight smile spread over your lips, your tone turned playful as he blushed.
Billy shifted his feet, feeling the gravel dig underneath his shoes. “I - I ... you know, if you’re looking for a place ... I have a place you know? And New York is pretty cool, I could show you around ... if you want of course!”
You wanted to laugh at his bashfulness, how quickly he was able to go from Mr. Charming Man to a blubbering mess within 10 minutes. You leaned over to him, resting your head on his shoulder. Billy instantly froze the moment he felt your body heat on his. and became more of a statue when your fingers found his - linking them for warmth, but you frowned, squeezing his hand tightly.
“You’re so cold ... “ you commented.
You glanced down at the linked hands, and suddenly came the realization just how pale Billy actually was compared to you. You quickly brushed it off, continuing your gaze to the night sky above.
“Maybe you can join me in California ... get some sun in you eh?” you gently jabbed his side with your elbow as he let out a chuckle.
“I’ve thought about moving to California ... “ he paused as he lets his thoughts meander around his head. California was definitely on his list for places to live, but he couldn’t help but feel bitter at the fact that he couldn’t fully enjoy it. He wanted to learn how to surf so bad, to enjoy the beaches, to hang out by the boardwalk.
But he couldn’t do that without his Beloved by his side.
Your voice broke his thoughts, “Why didn’t you?”
He lets out a large breath through his nose. Sometimes he truly hated being a vampire. “Oh you know, life brought me to New York instead. Maybe one day”
You nodded slowly at his response. Silence then took over the conversation, the both of you just relishing in each other presence. You didn’t want to admit it, but a small part of you was falling for him - and falling hard. A constant battle between your heart and head was currently taking place, and your heart was in the lead.
You’re not sure why, but you felt a sense of peacefulness wash over you whenever you were with him.
But something - call it the universe, call it your gut, call it intuition, - was telling you to stay with him.
“Maybe New York would be good for me ... “ you suddenly spoke.
He glanced down at you, his mouth in a grin so wide you swore you saw all his pearly whites. “Oh yeah?”
“Give me more time to think about it okay?”
He squeezed your small hand. It burned the coldness of his skin but he was far too in love to care. He leaned his head over yours, placing a kiss on your hair.
“Take your time. I’ll be here”
And he was. The two of you were completely attached at the hip the rest of the week, texting each other nonstop, sneaking out to hang with him every night. At this point your father’s drinking has become more rampant, he’d be passed out completely by 7 PM, which gave you a sense of security whenever you sneaked out of the house.
The more you hung out with the blue-eyed blonde, the harder you were beginning to fall for him. Billy was a complete dork in his comfortable nature, you two would blast out cheesy pop songs and sing them at the top of your lungs. Or sneak into a late night movie where he would toss popcorn at your hair every now and then to get your attention. You wondered why he was never available in the morning or afternoon - but when you brought the subject up he would just casually brush it off, explaining that he had work to take care of.
Billy on the other hand, was completely enamored with you. He was sure that the universe did the right thing and made you his soulmate because there was no way in hell he was ever leaving your side - and he was desperately hoping you felt the same way.
Of course things between the two of you got physical. If you both weren’t out doing something, you’d both be out at the quarry, usually in his backseat with his hands underneath your shirt and your fingers tangled in his short curls. He didn’t want to pressure you to go all the way - that would come when it came - but my god was he finding it harder to control himself around you. 
It was November 6th - a day left - when the both of you were fooling around in the backseat of his car. Your thighs wrapped around his waist as your hands found purchase on his face. His lips were everywhere - he could feel your pulse race, your blood run, with every breath you took and it was taking everything in his power not to sink his fangs on your tender neck right there and then.
You pulled away from his lips, gazing into his eyes as you rested your forehead on his. 
“I’m coming with you. To New York” 
Your announcement almost made his heart stop. He gently pulled away from you, an incredulous look on his face, “A-are you serious?”
You bit your bottom lip to keep you from exploding from excitement, but you nodded happily at him. “Yeah, I’ve never been more sure before in my life.”
“Shit. Y/N. We have to celebrate!” He exclaimed. You swore you had never seen a man so happy before. You giggled at how boyishly happy he suddenly turned.
“Slow down there Casanova ... I still need to pack, get all my things together”
“Right, right, yeah, of course” he ran his fingers through his hair, trying to let the news sink into him.
His plan actually worked. He couldn’t wait to tell Victoria and to show boat to Walt.
You gently ran your fingers through his hair as it got quiet in the car. Your eyes filled with love as you gazed down on him. The moon was full tonight, and the bright light that it emitted shone through the car - illuminating Billy. He seemed much more paler than the last several days, and you were starting to wonder if he needed go to see a doctor.
“What?” he questioned urgently, “Do I have something on my face?”
His hands quickly shot up to his face, touching around. You giggled, shaking your head.
“No, you just look really pretty under the moonlight”
A smile spread upon his lips. His hands then reached up to your cheeks, stroking them softly.
“You’re beautiful Y/N. I hope you know that”
You let out a small laugh, “Billy, you tell me that all the time”
“I know but just in case you ever forgot ... “
You shut him up by pressing your lips onto his. He instead found it hilarious to drop his hands from your cheeks, and to squeeze your sides. You pulled away from him as laughter erupted from your mouth, throwing your head back and trying to wiggle away from his grasp. The effort came to be fruitless as you were caught between his body and the back of the passenger seat.
His actions finally stopped, letting you take a moment to catch your breath. He marveled at the way your cheeks glowed a rosy red, and how your eyes twinkled brightly under the moonlight.
You glanced over at the clock on his car, your eyes widened at the time.
“Shit. It’s late. I need to get back”
You pushed yourself off of him, adjusting your shirt and straightening your hair back down. The both of you stepped out of his car to move back up to the front. The entire way back Billy was animatedly talking about all the places he’d take you in New York - but in reality his mind was reeling, wondering how he was ever going to explain to you what he truly was - and if you were to ever accept him.
It was a risk he was going to have to take, and a risk that he was willing to die for.
He pulled up near your house, remembering your strict instructions to never pull up in front of your house.
“I’ll pick you up as soon as the sun sets okay? I’ll be finished with work by then, and we can make it a night trip” he told you.
You nodded happily at him, leaning towards him and pressing a kiss on his cheek. “I don’t think I’ll be able to sleep tonight ... I’m too excited”
“Happy early Birthday Y/N. I promise tomorrow will be a day you’ll never forget”
He grabbed your hand, bringing it up to his lips and pressing a kiss. You in return squeezed his hand before you exited out of his car and headed towards your house.
There was an extra hop in your step as you approached your front door, quietly unlocking it with your key. You entered your foyer, your head turning to face the living room, fully expecting to see your father passed out.
But he wasn’t there.
Fear ran it’s cool claws down your neck as panic began to set in. You ran into the kitchen, hoping to see him rummaging in the fridge for another beer. But he wasn’t there either.
You quickly ran up the stairs and ran straight into your room. You swore you had never felt such a sense of fear enter your body than when you saw your father sitting on your bed, his face completely stoic, his eyes blurry and red.
“D-Dad - “
“You little whore”
It was as if venom was pouring out of his mouth whenever he spoke. His eyes darted over to you as his mouth turned into a nasty snarl. He slowly stood up, walking over to you with his fists clenched by his side.
You began to hyperventilate as he towered over you. Your eyes filled with tears as you avoided his death glare.
His hands shot up and grabbed you by the collar of your shirt, pining you to your bedroom door as you yelped in pain.
“You think I’m fucking stupid huh? You think I haven’t seen you sneaking out for the past couple of days like some fucking slut?!”
You quietly sobbed, squeezing your eyes shut as he pinned you harder to the door.
“Answer me!”
He pulled you up, you felt your feet leave the ground as he threw you across your bedroom. Your body landed with a loud thud, spraining your wrist in the process. You let out a loud and painful wail, he watched you with a sick grin on his face as your body was wrecked with sobs.
Shakily, you reached for towards your pocket, pulling out your phone. Your fingers worked nimbly as you found Billy’s name through your texts. You hit the call button and slid your phone under the bed before your father could come and snatch it from you.
You tried pulling yourself up, but pain shot through you as you applied pressure on your wrist, bringing you back down to the floor. Your father stalked over your body as you desperately tried to crawl away from him.
Billy was stopped at a red light when he saw his phone light up with your name on it. With a soft smile, he picked up the phone, “Hey gorgeous miss me - “
“Billy! Help!”
His blood ran cold at the horrific sound of your voice.
“Y/N?”
He heard a loud thud, then followed by an ear-shattering scream. Without even thinking, he pulled a U-turn at the light, his foot pressing hard onto the gas pedal as he was reaching speeds of 90 MPH to reach your house in time. His eyes were turning a dark red, his fangs were fully visible.
There was no stopping in him getting him to you. He would slaughter anyone who would stand in his way.
He stopped his car in front of your house and darted out his car door. He was moving so fast it was as if a wind breeze was passing by. Using his shoulder he broke down the front door and ran up the stairs to your bedroom where he was met with a gut-wrenching scene.
Your father was on his knees, tears pooling out of his eyes as he sobbed over your unconscious body. Your body was splayed out on your bedroom floor, blood trickling down your nose and out of the corner of your head. Your father was too drunk to even realize that Billy had walked into the bedroom, but before he could even glance up Billy had thrown himself on him - pinning him down the floor.
“What the fuck did you do?!” Billy roared at him.
Your father continued to cry as Billy’s fingers squeezed his neck, cutting off his air circulation.
“I - I ... “
But before he could formulate a sentence, Billy had already sunken his fangs into him.
Your father screamed as Billy drained him from all the blood of his body. Leaving the man as a hollow shell, pale and empty. Billy pulled away from him, his body relishing the taste of human blood. He licked his lips, not wanting to drop a single taste a blood from the feeding.
After he was sure he drank all that he could. He ran over to your body, gently lifting your head onto his lap.
“No, no, no, no, Y/N, wake up, please wake up ... “
He put two fingers on your neck, trying to find any indication that you were still alive. He faintly felt a pulse - but he knew that your father had done too much damage.
He had failed you - he had failed to keep his promise.
He let out a whimpering sob, holding your limp body into his arms. Billy knew he could save you, but would you ever forgive him?
He had to make a decision - and quick.
So he scooped you into his arms, bringing your neck to his mouth.
“I’m sorry Y/N ... please forgive me”
He sunk his fangs into your neck and prayed that you would survive the next 24 hours.

Take me for a Ride, Jack... 4
Well well well my muse continues... get your helmets ready ahaha
. . . . 
You question how Jack knows where you live but shrug it off, guessing she probably read your file and then that leads to why she would read your file.. The hot shower rinses away your many thoughts that are flying at you all at once. The memories of your dream come floating back and you groan at the bad outcomes. "It's fine, it's just breakfast." You brain reminds you there's a bike ride in between your place and the destination, knowing Jack she probably take a longer route to the cafe, enjoying the ride and all. You squeeze your thighs thinking about you clinging to Jack as you ride through the streets of DC. "Enough." You groan and flick the shower off.
You take a bit longer deciding on your outfit for work, dressing more for the ride than for the office. You take a double take in the mirror and decide to tie your hair up in a loose bun because it'll definitely get wrecked by the helmet if you do anything nicer. Thankfully by the time you exit your room, your sister is already pottering around the apartment.
"Thought you wouldn't be up for another hour." That's the good morning you were use to.
"Yeah, friend decided to wake me up and we're going for breakfast. Might have time this evening if we don't catch a break in the case?" You move around her in the kitchen, grabbing an apple from the fruit bowl and shoving it in your backpack. Usually you have a shoulder bag but you replaced it with a backpack today considering the transport arrangement.
You hear the soft pur of the bike and smile at the memory from yesterday.
"That friend have a name to cause such a blush at the sound of a motorbike?" Jamie smiles, walking over to the window before you can stop her.
"It's Agent Sloane if you must know." You want to slap yourself upside the head for using her formal title because Jamie just grins wider.
"So you finally giving in to your crush?" Apparently your body is doing everything involuntary things this morning and you wished you grabbed a cup of coffee before you head to the door.
"That obvious, huh?" You grab the door knob but pause waiting for Jamie's answer as she peaks through the blinds.
"She's the one you talk most about and the tone you use so I assumed there was something else there. Have a nice day at work, let me know if you want a lift home." She lets the blinds fall shut and sits down on the couch in front of the blinds.
"Thanks Jams, enjoy your day off." You smile at each other before you open the door and leave.
You watch as Jack lifts the front visor of her helmet and smiles as you walk towards her. She hands you a helmet and you adjust your backpack before accepting it from her.
"Good morning. Nice bike slash work outfit." Jack looks you up and down slowly and you squirm slightly under her lingering gaze. Thankfully you slide the helmet over your head before she can see the blush deepening on your cheeks. You went with dark denim jeans, a dark maroon button down blouse but it's covered by the black windbreaker with pink stitching and dark brown laced boots they could've been Doc's to anyone who glanced at them but you couldn't find it in yourself to pay so much for shoes so you got a knock off brand instead.
"G'mornin', leather jacket looks good on you." You smirk and Jack outstretches her hand and you take it, sliding onto the back of the bike, happily sliding in close and wrapping your hands around her waist. You think twice and go to remove your hands but Jack rests a hand on top of yours around her front and keeps it there until she knows you aren't going to move. She starts the bike and drives off down the street.
You were right, Jack does take the long way to the diner. However you enjoy the ride, you really enjoy the woman squeezed in between your thighs and the feel of her under your hands. The sun rises over DC on your way to the diner and you slide in closer behind jack, the wind chilling you to the bone. Apparently windbreakers dont work on bike rides in early morning DC chill or maybe it was your body shivering being in such close proximity to Jacqueline Sloane.
When Jack pulls into the car park in front of the diner a thought of seeing Gibbs at the diner makes you nervous but luckily you look around  for his truck or the work car and neither are parked close by that you can see. You hop off the back and remove your helmet. Jack rests them both on the bike's handle bars and you walk into the diner.
Elaine greets you both and Jack leads you to a booth down the end. You slide in to the seat across from each other and Elaine pours you both a cup of coffee promising to come back in a bit to get your orders.
"Thanks for the ride." You smile at Jack but you see she hasn't really looked you in the eyes since Elaine left. You'd even say she looks a bit nervous. Was this more than breakfast? You heart skips a couple beats faster.
"You're welcome, you seemed to really like her yesterday so I thought you might like a ride." She nips at her bottom lip and you use all your will power not to glance down at her rosey lip pinched by her teeth.
"DC looks even better from the back of your bike." You smile and glance down at your menu, only to avoid her cute as hell smile that forms as she releases her bottom lip from being captive.
"So did you have a relaxing night last night?" She changes the subject and you relax a little more into your seat.
"It was nice, Ellie and I went out for dinner after work, chatted for a while then I went home and crashed." You see her eyes darken slightly and a slight frown forms so quickly and then disappears in a flash. "How was yours?"
"Fine, went home, made dinner and went to bed." It short and kind of clipped, her tone definitely changed and you see her trying her best to fight the emotion she's dealing with but failing to hide properly.
Jack takes a sip of her coffee and the places the cup more in the middle of the table, her hand resting beside it. You bite the bullet, she's not meeting your eyes and you don't want to spend the next hour feeling uncomfortable with each other, you reach out and rest your hand on top of hers. She looks down at your hand and then up at you, the darkness in her eyes fades slightly.
"So this a date or just breakfast?" You can't take it back now and later you might cringe at how you asked but right now, it seemed to be the right thing to say.
You see Jack's cheeks flush and now want to make her do that all the time. "Depends, how's it going so far?" You smile at her coy response and squeeze her hand gently, rubbing your thumb back and forth over her knuckles.
"I like this unsure Jack. She's cute." You get a swift kick to the side of your calf for that quip which only makes you laugh. "I'll add that to my list." You take a sip of your coffee, keeping your hand on top of Jack's.
"List?" Jack turns over her hand in yours and intertwines your fingers. You smile down at the movement, forgetting her question because all you can think about is how right it feels to have Jack's hand in yours. "List?" She askes again.
You hold in a laugh. Anticipating the possible kick that may be heading your way again. "Sleek, sexy, goddess, cute and feisty but you already knew all that." No kick was made just another flush of red on her cheeks.
Elaine interrupts your moment which she looks sorry about but the diner is getting busy and she wants to get your order in however neither of you have looked at the menu fully even though you both know it almost off by heart. She hints to your usual and you both agree. You see her eyes flick to your joined hands and you go to recoil but Jack holds you in place. You give Jack an apologetic look but she just runs her thumb gently over yours.  
You watch as Elaine walks away with a knowing smile on her face, you know she won't tell any of the team but the nerves are still there. Jack coughs slightly remembering where your conversation was at before Elaine took your orders. " You're very smooth early in the morning." She smirks and you roll your eyes.
"I'm glad you think so."
The conversation is easily and it flows, you both aren't afraid to fill the silences but there really isn't any. She asks about your search for a new place, you ask about her renovations she's doing to her living room and she just laughs. Soon breakfast arrives and the conversation lessons as you both dig into your food.
Jack shifts slightly, you notice her tense a little and slowly swallow her food that she's just eaten. You follow her gaze to see Gibbs standing at the counter talking to Elaine. Elaine, of course, nods towards you two and you quickly turn your head and take another bite of your breakfast. You see Jack nod acknowledgement towards Gibbs and she gives you a small apologetic smile but you know it was bound to happen. This was his favourite watering hole.
You see Gibbs out of the corner of your eye and lift your face to smile at him with a mouth full of food.
"'mornin'."
"Morning Gibbs. Getting breakfast or just coffee?" She tries so hard to sound casual, the only reason you can tell the difference is because of the way she was talking to you not a minute earlier.
"Just coffee, how's breakfast?" He's trying to do small chat and you want to groan. The one time he actually does small talk and you really don't want him too. If Elaine hadn't have said anything you doubt he would've come over. Although you were probably sure he'd seen you both the moment he walked in, being a good investigator and all.
"Really good." You swallow and smile up at him.
Gibbs comments on only seeing Jack's bike and Jack says she offered you a joy ride after you found interest in her bike yesterday and you pray the blush you feel spreading up your neck stays where it is. Thankfully Gibbs and Jack volley back and forth for a bit about her bike, you zone out on the mechanic talk. You sip your coffee and watch the sunlight highlighting Jack's features in the best possible way, the way her hair shapes her face perfectly and the almost nervous tick she has when under observation of her hand coming up to play with the hair just behind her ear.
It isn't too long before Elaine brings over Gibbs coffee. He leaves soon after saying he'll see you both at work soon. You watch as the door closes behind him and relax back into the chair, you hadn't realised how tense you were until then which means they noticed as well.
Jack did notice and reaches across to bring your hand into the middle of the table and she holds you there. This time she's the one with the comforting touch because your heart feels like its about to have a heart attack. You take a deep breath hoping to settle your nerves. Next time, you're going to suggest the cafe a few blocks away from your house, not the Navy yard. That's if there's going to be a next time but by the sweet smile curving Jack's lips you have a pretty good idea there will be.
You take the last sip of your coffee. Elaine walks back over to offer a refill but you decline watching Jack sip the last of her sugar caffeinated goodness as she describes it. Two cups was enough for you before 0800.  
"I was kidding, You don't actually owe me breakfast, Jack." You laugh as Jack reaches to pay for the entire bill but thankfully Elaine splits it for you.
"And here I was thinking that's what you do on a first date but it has been a while since I've been on one. Well a successful one." She winks at you and this time a blush does rise up to your cheeks as Elaine holds back a huff and hands you your receipt.
"Thank you Elaine. Agent Sloane and I were just leaving." You scrunch up your lips, trying your best not to smile and give Jack a pointed look and she just shrugs, laughing at your reaction.
The ride to work is slightly longer than usual because Jack takes another slight detour on the way to the Navy yard, thankfully you still have a bit of time to spare. This mornings breakfast replays in your mind as the streets of DC fly by and you smile. It was a pretty successful first date, you'd have to agreed and you lean in closer, hugging Jack. You feel her hand come down to your knee as she pulls up at a red light just outside of the Navy yard, unfortunately the light has to turn green and her hand goes back to the handle bar.  
Thankfully the team is already in as you see all their cars when Jack pulls into her spot. You stretch slightly hopping off the bike, readjusting your bun once the helmet has freed your hair and adjust the straps on your backpack so it sits loosely on your back.
"You look great, not wind swept at all." Jack winks at your fussing of your outfit.
"Thanks." You shuffle your feet slightly, waiting for Jack to grab her bag out of the back satchel. She smiles at you waiting for her even though you are very quickly running out of time.
You step off the elevator with Jack and walk into the bullpen smiling as she continues up to her office. McGee and Ellie are already busy working on something and it's Nick who notices you walk in first and that Jack was with you.
"Goood morning." He smirks and you continue past to your desk.
"Morning Nicholas."
"How was your morning?" He turns in his chair to face your desk with a smug smile, interlocking his hands behind his head.
You swing your backpack off and dump it beside your desk, sitting down and turning on your computer. "Pretty good." You eye him over your computer and he's still staring.
"Haven't you got work to do Nick?" Ellie pipes up, getting up from her desk and grabbing something from the printer. You mime thank you to Ellie and she smiles walking back to her desk.
"I can multitask, Bishop." He has a slight whine to his voice and you see Gibbs grimace slightly and you know a growl is coming.
"Multitask quieter Torres." He grumbles. "What have we got?"
You all reiterate where your leads went and what you found before leaving work last night. Gibbs gives everyone a task and heads to go see Kasie as she called at the end of the campfire.
. . . .
Finally got around to editing and giving up trying to make it any better because my muse is eh right now. 
I’m hoping to update once more before I head to LA for Paleyfest this week.

Sugar Lips | Huang Renjun
Genre: floof
Word count: 1.7k
A/n: this is one of the longest fics I've ever written and not at all based off of a boy from my school whom I dislike sorry about the rushed ending I didnt know where I was going with that :/
~~~~~
You and Renjun had never gotten along. He sat behind you in math and was constantly picking on you. Yeah, you could have destroyed him with some sick burns, but you held your tongue out of consideration for his gigantic ego. Half the school thought you two liked each other and the other knew that yall were mortal enemies. The thought of you liking Renjun made you want to stab your eyes out with sporks. However, you couldnt deny that Renjun was hot. Like, this boi had been hand sculpted by God himself. Seriously damn. You had to give credit where credit is due. But, as I said, you do NOT like Renjun.
After the rumors started that you and Renjun like each other, you tried to react less to him. You no longer argued and paid little attention to him. Much to your dismay, your teachers seemed to find your ability to ignore Renjun as a good quality that most of the others students lacked. This resulted in you sitting by him in most of your classes. But obviously you didnt let this affect you. You just had to sit there and pay him no attention. Easier said than done. You were always trying to not notice him, despite always looking at him because hes hot.
One night your friend, let's call her Ryn for fun, forced you out to a party and then ditched you. Skew you, Ryn! You weren't the biggest fan of parties so you sat on one of the counters in the kitchen, by yourself, patiently waiting for Ryn to be ready to leave. That's when something caught your eye. Renjun was also alone in the kitchen and he was looking right at you. Or at least, you thought he was, but he could easily be looking at something else. Why would he be looking at you anyways? You looked back down at your drink, avoiding any eye contact with the boy you have to ignore.
By this point in the year, you had gotten very good at ignoring him. You didnt even notice when he started walking towards you. And you didnt even react when he grabbed your hand. You paid him no attention as he led you into an empty room. All you had to do was not pay attention to Renjun. That's seriously all you had to do. So you didnt pay attention to him as he leaned towards you. But he grabbed your chin, causing you to look him in the eye. Shoot. Just dont react, you thought to yourself. You tried not reacting as he leaned closer and closer. Until..
He stopped? "Do you want me to stop" he asks innocently, a blush leaking onto his cheeks. Okay stay calm, just dont do anything rash- You tried to tell yourself but instead you grabbed his shirt in a fist and pulled him until the little space between you was now nonexistent. His lips were sweet, like sugar. They were as forbidden as they were sweet. And you were completely aware that you should not be doing what you were doing. Yet, you did not pull away. Thankfully, neither did Renjun. He just wrapped his arms around your waist and held you as close as he physically could.
The next thing you knew, your phone was going off. The musical tone signaling a call from Ryn who, to your dismay, was ready to leave and looking for you. Renjun took a small step back, wiped his mouth, and walked out of the room you to had shared. He didnt even say anything. Confused, you left as well, in search of Ryn. You found her by the door and explained everything that happened on your way home. Leaving out no details, it was a bit hard to believe considering Renjun was known to be you mortal enemy. What will happen when you sit by him in class tomorrow? Will he say something about it to embarrass you? Or will he stay quiet and pretend it never happened? Oh gosh, what if he says it was only because he was drunk? Thinking back to your memory, his mouth didnt taste like alcohol at all, so even if he tried to blame it on drinking, it wasnt feasible. But now you were thinking about kissing him,,, and that thought didnt go away easily.
~
You walk into your first class to see him already there surrounded by the other boys. You had planned to avoid eye contact and avoid him in general because you were worried about what he would do. But you locked eyes and to your dismay, he just smirked. Dare you say, is was a really handsome smirk too. Luckily nobody was paying attention so this interaction went unnoticed as you sat at your seat beside him.
Half the class went by without mishap and you hoped you would never have to deal with Renjun again. However, you are not that fortunate. He slid you a note discreetly.
Y/N, for acting like you have a pole stuck up your ass 80% of the time, you're a surprisingly good kisser ;)
You tried so hard to hold yourself back. To not react. To go back to how things were with Renjun as your enemy of mutual disgust. But you could help but write back.
Only 80% of the time?
You busy later?
I am completely free tonight
Good, my family is out for the night
And then the bell rang and you were off to your next class which you didnt have with Renjun. Before you knew it the school day had ended and you were rushing to leave. Maybe you were going too fast because you didnt see the person in front of you until after you ran right into them.
"Y/N! Can you fucking watch where you're going?!" Renjun said. You were taken aback by his antics because he was acting so weird in your classes today. I guess this makes it seem like nothing has changed between you two to the rest of the school.
"Watch where you're going, Renjun, you stepped out right in front of me." You spit back before you walked away without another word.
~
You arrived at Renjuns house around 5. When he opened the door, you could tell he was nervous but tried to play it off. You wanted to kiss him again, but he hadnt made another move. Yolo! You grabbed his shirt in a fist and aggressively pulled him towards you. His eyes were big, surprised by your actions. He kissed you back more delicately than before. It was as if he was no longer fueled by the lust he had at the party.
Renjun was the first to pull away. His face was bright red as he invited you further into his home. "Are you hungry?" He asked. "Yeah, maybe a little" He then went to his kitchen and got some snacks. "Listen, Y/N" his voice was shakey, "I know that we made out at that party and we havent really gotten along before but what I'm trying to say is" his eyes fell to the snacks in his hands, "I actually like you." Your jaw actually hit the floor when he admitted this. Obviously your reaction didnt do much help for Renjuns nerves. He scratched the back of his head when you didnt respond and spoke again, " I know I act like I hate you and that's because you hate me, dont you? So I'm not expecting you to like me, but I just thought I'd let you know the truth."
You couldnt believe what the boy was saying. Right now he looked so shy and small compared to his usual cocky, confident self. "I dont hate you, Renjun." You tried to say but it only came out in a whisper. His face lit up. "You dont, well then I have a slight chance- shit I meant to say that in my head" Yeah, this boy is supposed to be your enemy, but you have always found him attractive. You spent years pretending to hate each other because you both thought that the other did. Maybe Renjun isnt as bad as you thought. You decided to see where this would take you. "Do you wanna watch a movie?"
Again, his face lit up as he smiled at you handing you a bag of gummy worms, "Thatd be great."
You two wound up picking out a movie that you barely remember because you're sitting very close to Renjun. You cant help but stare, and your heart flutters a little. He turns to look at you, catching you off guard, meeting eyes. This time he took the initiative and grabbed either side of your face and kissed you softly. You wrapped your arms around his neck with your hands playing with his hair. Before you knew it the movie had ended and the credits were playing. You pulled away from Renjun a little dizzy from the lack of oxygen while you had been kissing. You didnt want to leave but it was a school night and you had to get home. You smiled shyly as you stood from his couch. "I'll see you tomorrow." Renjun nodded and followed you out, watching as you drove away.
~
The next day when you entered your class, Renjun was already there, again. But this time he got up from the group of boys and came over to you. He smirked before grabbing your hand and kissing your cheek. Queue everyone's reactions ( .O.) You knew he was just playing it cool but you were still blushing like you have too much blood in your body and it happens to all be in your face. Some people claimed they called it or knew or whatever. None of that was important to you two.
Yall would go on cute dates pretty much anywhere. The park, a picnic, the arcade, literally anywhere was fun with Renjun. Sometimes you'll even go to his house just to nap and cling onto him. Due to this, Renjun bought you a big plushie to hug for whenever he cant be there for you. What I'm trying to say here is that you two are goals and cute af and so on.

Sick Fic - Just cause
Rue has a cold, why she came to school today is anyone's fucking guess, but if they were to guess it was for Jules then they'd probably be right.
Rue likes to be around Jules it makes her feel better, she also feels that If she's around she can protect her from Nate. Everytime she sees him around she searches Jules face for any sign of discomfort and more often than not she finds it. Her smile dims and her eyes try to find any place to look that isnt his fucking face. Sometimes he catches her eye and gets that infuriating smirk on his face. It makes her blood boil, how uncomfortable he makes her, how he smiles at her like they're sharing some kind of moment, some kind of beautiful memory. She tries not to let Jules catch sight of him often. She likes to distract her by craking stupid jokes and asking her weird questions, or asking her what's on her mind in that very moment or giving her sarcastic commentary on the people at their school.
Rue is the most expressive she thinks she's ever been when she's trying to distract Jules. The most expressive she's ever been period. Thinks she's gotten pretty good at it. Keeping Jules preoccupied. Pep rallys though, pep rallys are hard, seeing as Nate is pretty much showcased along with the rest of the football team. Today that's not much of a problem, today she's too worried about Rue's face. How washed out she looks, how tired she looks. Rue's been kind of off all day, lethargic and inattentive, and throughout the day it's only gotten worse.
For one guilty moment she wonders if Rue is on some type of drug, but she immediately banishes the thought from her mind especially when she sees how miserable Rue looks. Rue looks kinda like she's about to pass out even though she's sitting down and she feels like it too. She has her head down on the lunch table, cradled by her arm and her eyes are droopy. She tries on a smile for Jules but it's kind of pathetic and she knows it.
"You ok" Jules asks. Rue hums in affirmation but Jules knows its bullshit, she puts a hand on her forehead, an inaccurate measuring tool sure but, Rue is hot, hotter than normal and she tells her as such. In response she gets that dopey smile and a dorky "thanks" that makes her smile. "No Rue"she giggles "I mean yeah, but I meant you're temperature". To this Rue doesnt reply, just closes her eyes as Jules strokes her hair.
Jules knows there's gonna be a pep rally today, so does Rue, that's part of the reason she came in today, and she doesn't want Rue to be swept up in the overwhelming dizzying mess that will inevitably result from the festivities. As soon as she thinks that it starts. She could hear them coming from a mile away. Whooping and hollering like a pack of banshees. Rue hears them too and fails at suppressing a groan as they surge through the cafeteria.
The way they stampede through the halls and the walkways make Rue's head throb and she turns away from the stairs and the crowd, buries her face into her arms. The closer they get the louder they become until the room is filled with a deafening roar of yelling football players and stomping cheerleaders. Rue visibly cringes, tucks further into herself and Jules resolves to get her out of there as soon as possible.
Rue is like jelly when she gets up, has to use the table to steady herself. Jules gently lifts one of Rue's arms and slips it around her shoulders, thinks about asking Lexi to help, goes with Kat instead. Lexi kind of stares at her and Rue alot and Jules can't figure out what her problem is. Later it'll come out that Lexi has had a huge capital C crush on Rue for almost as long as she can remember. For now Rue leans on her, places her head on her shoulder and moves when Jules moves.
Kat comes over grabs Rue's other arm Jules shifts to wrap an arm around her waist instead. She doesn't want people to think Rue is drugged out, knows she hates the speculation, knows a teacher might intercept them and make assumptions that they won't allow Jules or Rue to refute. They might call Rue's mom, and Rue's mom might get mad, accuse Rue of doing what for once in her life she's not.
Kat takes control as they move through the crowded cafeteria. Kat's become something of a bad bitch, a commanding force where she used to try to shrink into herself. She stands tall now, walks with purpose, and people get out of her way. Nate tracks their movements as they make their way out of the cafeteria. Jules can feel his eyes on her, on them. Jules hates the way he looks at her, hates the way he gets that little smile on his face like they share a secret. To be fair they do, they both hold the power to destroy each others life, but he makes it seem like he's having fun. Like they're having fun, and no one ever seems to catch the looks he gives her. No one except maybe Rue.
Rue feels Jules stiffen, turns her head into Jules's neck, whispers in her ear "so you think I'm hot huh" Jules smiles its one of those moments Rue provides, a moment where she forgets all about Nate and anything that isnt Rue. Eventually they make it out of the cafeteria, past screaming jocks and their cheerleading counterparts. Jules thanks Kat says she's got it from here and sends her on her way. Kat gives her a grin and tells her to text her when they make it to where ever they end up. It's only after shes alone in the hall with a sick Rue that she realizes she has no idea where they're gonna go. Luckily Rue takes the initiative and tells her that her mom isn't home.
Also lucky, Rue didnt bike to school today. She's something of an expert on when not to ride her bike so she took the bus with Gia that morning. In the back of her mind she thinks she should text her, just so she's not worried that Rue's fucked off to God knows where to do God knows what. However right now her head feels light and airy and she doesnt have the energy to search for her phone. Its Jules that takes the initiative on this one, texts Gia, tells her Rue's alright but she's taking her home cause she doesn't feel so hot.
Jules takes her home on her bike, has Rue wrap her arms around her waist like that first night. The night that they met. Rue snuggles up takes advantage of being so close to Jules. Siphons her warmth, she'd started to shiver against the wind chill. Or maybe that's just her cold, making her feel a chill that's not there. Jules certainly doesnt seem to be cold. Not from where she's pressed up against her.
She's visibly upset when they pull up to the house and her and Jules separate. I mean they're still in contact, Jules has slipped Rue's arm back around her shoulders, but she' not as close as she'd like to be. She wants Jules all over her, wants to be surrounded by her, feel that warmth again.
Jules takes her house keys and unlocks the door. Then she leads her to her bedroom, gets Rue out of her street clothes and into something comfy, shorts and a big t-shirt. She almost leaves to get her cold medicine, decides against it. For one she doesn't know if that's the kind of thing Rue can have. For two Rue has grabbed her wrist, lightly of course, Rue always gives her the option to pull away. "Stay"? She questions. Jules pauses looks at her with something Rue will later come to recognize as adoration, for now it makes her nervous. "I-I mean, only if you want to" "you obviously dont have to". She's giving her puppy dog eyes and an out, and she's rambling and Jules realizes she was never gonna say no. She hadn't even thought of leaving. She cuts Rue off "of course Rue", "just let me get out of this". Jules gives Rue that smile that makes her insides feel mushy. It's all gentle and lovely, it's the kind of smile that turns her into a lovesick loser.
Jules dons much the same thing as Rue. One of Rue's t-shirts but without the shorts. She grabs her laptop and pulls up madoka magica, Rue can't run away from her this time so she's forced to watch it. Not that she minds, because she's with Jules and she would happily do anything that Jules asked. Besides she was planning on taking a nap anyway, the ultimate escape.
Rue snuggles up to her immediately, puts her head on her chest, watches the anime with hooded eyes. Despite her wanting to take a nap she fights sleep. Wants to enjoy being wrapped up in Jules for as long as she can.
As Jules cuddles Rue a question comes into mind that she can't shake. She wonders why Rue came to school today. Her mother wouldn't have made her come in, would have taken the nesscarry precautions to make sure her daughter was actually sick, would have known whether or not to give her cough medicine. So she asks, because Rue's a pretty honest person when she wants to be. When she doesn't have to craft lies to get out of trouble. And Rue, Rue tells her. Well sleepily mumbles it to her is a more accurate description, but Jules catches every word. Maybe it's the fever but she's awfully candid."You make me better"she says "and I can't just leave you all alone with stupid fucking Nate jacobs" this she says with a furrowed brow."I just really like you Jules, I wanna spend as much time with you as I can" " I want as many people to see us together as possible, so they know that we're together" "so they know I can have something as good as you" "so I know it". Her heart catches too.
Later Ms.Bennet goes into Rue's room to see if she's actually there. She finds her daughter curled up with Jules. Her head on her chest, her arm around her waist. Jules's arms are draped over her holding her in a lose hug. A laptop is left abandoned at the edge of the bed, open but unlit. She guesses Jules is staying for dinner.

(1/?) im struggling a lot rn, i keep having flashbacks/reliving some stuff that happened when i was younger. im gonna send these asks with what happened in hopes for some advice or clarification/validation of what it was, but if you dont want to answer it you titally dont have to and just thank you for running this blog! so um it started when i was 5, i was on that pixie hollow game, and i got these messages from a guy asking what i looked like, how old i was, ect. i thought it was another kid
(2/?) so i answered his questions and talked to him for a while. he asked for photos of me and i sent him a couple. he told me i was pretty and sexy and everything which ig i really liked cause i wasn’t popular at school and i was just really excited that someone thought i was pretty and wanted to be my friend. he told me that he was actually an adult, and then he started saying some bad stuff like telling me that he wanted to rape me. he sent me these long messages describing him tying me up, (3/?) beating me, and raping me. i was really scared but i thought it was all my fault because i had replied to him and talked to him even once i knew he was older. he told me a whole bunch of messed up stuff like that i would only ever be worth anything if men wanted to have sex with me, and that i was made just to be a fuckdoll. i cant remember how talking to him ended, a lot of my memories around this stuff are really blurry. but after that i guess i sorted ended up believing that i was only (4/?) if men found me attractive, and i didnt really have any friends so i guess i kinda liked the attention. i started i guess making myself an easy target to men like that. a lot of situations similar to the first happened over and over again. these men asking about me, then describing or like “roleplaying” type thing me being raped and hurt. nothing ever happened to me irl luckily, mostly cause i live in nz and none of them did. i wanted to tell my mum but i felt like a lot of it i had kinda (5/?) let happen, so i never have. more recently i had still been talking to men like that online, kinda as a form of self harm ig like i mostly did that when i wanted to cut myself. im 16 now, i have a few mental illnesses seperate from this, but i also have a lot of triggers from that stuff and i still feel like i base so much of my self worth on if im found attractive by older guys, and i still feel like i deserve to be hurt. i dont know if what happened to me could be classed as csa? or if (6/6) or if its smth else. or if it possible to develop ptsd or cptsd from smth like that? ive never told anyone because im really scared about what it will make them think of me. and i don’t know if im just making a big deal out of nothing because it was only online so it probably doesnt count as sexual abuse or anything. i just keep having nightmares about it and i dont know what to. if you have any suggestions or if you could tell me if it counts as csa or smth else id really appreciate that

Let’s read Hiveswap Friendsim... volume 17!
The penultimate volume. Let’s sacrifice a few more timelines to the great tapestry of fate that we’re weaving. Or more likely, Doc Scratch is weaving.
This time, “Of Teen and Tech, Acerbic”.
Tumblr media
One more jade, and one more indigo. I think at this point we have a pretty even spread across the non-Sea Troll blood colours.
Daraya
I thought there was a TV show of this name, but apparently it’s ‘Daria’. This troll and that Daria seem to have a similar attitude, judging by the image. As for ‘Daraya’, it refers to a handful of places, notably Darayya in Syria, which was apparently the site of a massacre seven years ago during the civil war. Oof.
Daraya is the final troll written by Cee. L. Kyle, creator of prior memorable trolls Bronya, Zebruh, Remele and Lynera. I guess Cee likes writing jades.
Anyway, Daraya’s route begins as a few have in recent episodes - the protag feeling lethargic and listless, too tired to make friends.
Tumblr media
We end up in a cerulean neighbourhood. There are some pointed lines...
Tumblr media
When this game wants to, it really skewers its targets.
Anyway, the music kicks in as we realise Elwurd (the huge lesbian) texted us to invite us to a party. A bunch of other trolls seem to be showing up as well...
Tumblr media
The track this time is called “trollkind cannot gain anything without first giving something in return. to obtain something, something of equal value must be lost. that is alchemys first law of equivalent exchange. in those days, we really believed that to be the worlds one and only truth”. No prizes for guessing who decided to name a song after an extended quote from Fullmetal Alchemist.
There’s some more emphasis on how artificial our friendship feelings are...
Tumblr media
Anyway, as we approach the party, we spot Daraya, busy looking very goffick.
Tumblr media
She’s not thrilled to see us. Of course we’d be friends with Elwurd, she says grumpily.
Now in Befriend Mode, we do our best to mimic her whole ‘disaffected slouch’. Apparently being vaguely cynical and depressed is pleasing to Daraya. She seems to like Elwurd though...
Tumblr media
Lesbians, I swear...
Tumblr media
I swear...
Anyway, we learn that Daraya has snuck out of the caverns - though she’s not as restricted as little Wanshi. She whines about Bronya’s ‘cloister rules’. But hey, she met Elwurd through Bronya...
We blather about how the caves aren’t so bad, and namedrop some other jades we know. Daraya is not impressed.
Tumblr media
Anyway, she’s not invited. So our first choice is to tell her to go home or invite her in.
Tumblr media
Let’s let her in, because the other way doesn’t seem to go anywhere interesting.
Bronya isn’t the only troll we know at this party. Chahut apparently hasn’t yet shipped out off planet, and she shows up too.
Tumblr media
Chahut makes some remarks about how fascinating she finds jadebloods... or ‘greenies’ as she puts it. She makes a murder joke about whether Daraya is really jade or not.
Tumblr media
Yes, that’s exactly how I’d put it. Definitely.
After that brief brush with death, Daraya gets other ideas.
Tumblr media
Mmhmm. As we head off, Daraya suggests we have a reputation for being ‘unconventional, weird and rebellious’. That’s certainly one way to describe ‘being a clueless alien pathologically addicted to making friends’.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ahahaha nicely done.
Unfortunately we don’t have a lot of edgy rebellious ideas tonight.
Tumblr media
I’m in favour of being a hoodlum.
Lots of new backgrounds in this episode. Somewhat different style too...
Tumblr media
Apparently these are by Phil Gibson.
We ask Daraya how she’s doing. Her answer: not well.
Tumblr media
Daraya says some dangerously radical stuff about how everything sucks for everyone but the highbloods... and maybe them too. We get a callback to the joke from last time...
Tumblr media
Ha.
The narrator refuses to comment on that. That’s a good call, I think.
Daraya continues to complain. As a jadeblood, she’s not going to have to go into space, but life in the caverns tending to matters of social reproduction. We commiserate, which she appreciates.
Tumblr media
We raise an eyebrow at the mention of Lynera. Danara assures us that she hates her - and not in a romantic way! (“or well...”)
At that point, we run into Tyzias. Just the person to take Daraya’s alienation and dissatisfaction and forge it into a revolutionary will, right?
Tumblr media
Luckily, protag has the same idea. Which is no doubt why Tyzias was written into the plot at this point.
Tumblr media
The well known “goth to anarchist” pipeline, right?
There’s a brief allusion to the weird shift that happened with Fozzer - a vague memory of a different Fozzer. “But why did you remember that guy?” indeed.
Tyzias tries to give a Daraya a little pep talk against hopelessness... Daraya is not particularly persuaded.
Tumblr media
God I know that utterly depressing feel. What can one troll do, indeed?
Tyzias answers it the challenge.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
She’s not wrong.
Daraya is not exactly being won over, but the protag does manage to get her to chill a bit and keep the conversation going. Tyzias has more real shit to say.
Tumblr media
Daraya challenges her - is it just about making herself feel better, if there’s no realistic hope of real change? Tyzias says... in some way, it is. And the protag chimes in - that doesn’t make it less effective, at whatever little it is achieving.
Tumblr media
At the end of this, I’m gonna try and make a list like... troll I would most want to be friends with in real life, and least, favourite route and so on. Spoilers: Tyzias would be the friend I’d want to make.
Tyzias points out like... what the hell else are they gonna do? Daraya finally admits she’s got a point.
Tumblr media
And... having secured a friendship between not just us and Daraya, but us and Tyzias... we reach the end of the arc.
Tumblr media
Let’s go fuck shit up. By which we mean, read law books. I guess!
That was nice. I fully support this lesbian goth and her budding revolutionary consciousness.
God I’m predictable.
Unfortunately, finding the friendship route here means it’s all downhill from here.
If we tell her to go home instead of bringing her to the party...
Tumblr media
strut pod encasements!
Tumblr media
That was predictably short.
OK, now for the non-phoned in side branch.
Tumblr media
She does have an idea, it turns out. We hop into our (now quite low on fuel) car, and head off to a ruined city somewhere near the thriving one we’re living in.
Tumblr media
Ooh. I wonder what we’ll find?
We make our way to an abandoned mall to go urbexing. Fuck, I love reading about urbex. Too much of a shut-in to have ever actually tried it.
Tumblr media
We end up in a food court with the roof caved in. It’s apparently cool as hell. Alas, it’s not illustrated.
Tumblr media
I’m not sure which rebellion this would be associated with. That of the Signless, or some other?
Tumblr media
Ah, that narrows it down. The Signless rebellion, then. In which case... Alternian malls are really built to last!
We comment on the strangeness of the absence of adults, but this upsets Daraya.
Tumblr media
Apparently, as an adult, she’ll be cloistered off on her own somewhere, and forbidden to contribute genes to the slurry. Huh.
Tumblr media
To be honest, it’s a wonder that most other trolls are so cheery. Daraya’s attitude seems like the sensible one on this planet.
Daraya says some real shit about the existential dread she’s living with, the paralysing hopelessness of having no future to speak of.
Tumblr media
Hey Daraya, do you fancy this copy of Baedan I happen to have on hand?
Tumblr media
make total destroy etc. etc.
Anyway, at this point... Daraya somehow manages to set the mall on fire by throwing a mall at a cooker.
Tumblr media
And... the narrator has no choice but to leave, as Daraya lets herself burn in the centre of the mall, one of the few places she cared about.
Tumblr media
God, this episode was a bit real lol.
It’s not wrong though. Leftist theory certainly hasn’t cured my depression (lol), but it has given me some perspective to put it in a context where it can be managed, I guess. Something to work towards, no matter how futile it may be, in this fucking hell world that created me.
In the words of 2B... “Everything that lives is designed to end. We are perpetually trapped in a never-ending cycle of life and death. Is this a curse? Some kind of punishment? I often think about the god who blessed us with this cryptic puzzle... and wonder if I will ever get the chance to kill him.”
Let’s look to the struggle within the cycle. What else is there?
Nihkee
So now for...
Tumblr media
Nihkee. She stronk. Keep your pants on, lesbians.
Nihkee is the creation of David Turbull, who previously made Tegiri (weeb) and Tirona (baby lawyer). Her theme, appropriately bombastic, is another James Roach piece with a long name: “lmao i still dont know if it’s nicky or nike (like the shoe, not like... the name mike)”. Make of that what you will.
This episode opens in media res - at a sporting arena. How did we get here?
Tumblr media
We seem to be watching some kind of cage fight. Knowing trolls, I imagine it will be a lethal one.
Apparently we’re attending to Amisia. She bemoans the ‘boorishness’ of the purplebloods.
This seems to be the troll equivalent of pro-wrestling, rather than, say, MMA. However, injuries are a lot more common. We learn that Amisia won us tickets in a raffle, and invited us to this ‘Display of Muscular Theatre’.
We are watching The Huntress (olive) fight Cullpitz (purple). The narration mentions that Cullpitz is bizarrely un-clowny.
The fights are, naturally, rigged by hemospectrum. The narration notes that The Huntress seems to be deliberately holding back to avoid inciting the crowd. Amisia, however, is excited for the next competitor: Nihkee Moolah of course, who - Amisia claims - has never lost a fight.
Cullpitz wins the fight, and causes The Huntress a likely permanent injury. The protag feels sick enough to have to step away. But as we leave, we get drawn into a conversation with a violetblood (seadweller). He promises money (nah), fame (no thank you) and at last, friendship. And the deal is sealed.
Tumblr media
Unfortunately, Nihkee’s opponent is dead. Which means... he wants us to take their place. Having an alien will make big money for the ring.
Let me guess: the choice is gonna be to refuse this terrible plan or go with it.
Maybe, but not yet...
Tumblr media
We meet Nihkee, in the middle of working out. Some of these trolls are dressed more for MMA than pro-wrestling but who knows.
There’s a meta joke in the narration.
Tumblr media
She is not best pleased with the showrunner for interrupting her prep. Though, I get the impression it’s all in the spirit of showtrollship.
Tumblr media
Sure are some muscles. I’m not entirely sure what the [()] typing quirk is menat to represent exactly. Probably not a yonic symbol?
Tumblr media
It’s worth noting at this point that all of my knowledge of professional wrestling comes from reading the TVTropes pages a couple of times. If you’re curious, it’s an impressively comprehensive discussion of wrestling terminology and the various dynamics involved in its production.
Kayfabe is the way wrestlers pretend in their media appearances that pro-wrestling competitions are not mostly scripted athletic performances with exaggerated personas, but genuine fights between real people who actually act like their stage characters. Now all the fans fully understand that wrestling is fake (but still fun), it’s not taken as seriously, but apparently it was a huge deal back in the 70s. Give the article a read, it’s fascinating.
Nihkee is not particularly impressed by the suggestion of performing with us.
Tumblr media
We protest. At length.
Tumblr media
We get the first choice: are we ready for a BUTT CLENCHING, FLESH ABRADING, KNUCKLE BLISTERING, MUSCLE RIPPLING, SMACKDOWN FROM UPTOWN?
Tumblr media
Of course we fucking are.
She gives us guidelines for the show. Basically: follow her storyline. “The alien invader challenges me in an exhibition match to TOPPLE the MIGHTIARCHY.” We struggle, but eventually...
Tumblr media
...PREVAILS AGAIN!
(I guess to convey suitable drama, a lot of Nihkee’s dialogue is split between multiple dialogue boxes, which makes it a little hard to take screenshots.)
We ask if we’ll die. She assures us no - unless we’re especially weak. But even then...
Tumblr media
Well, that’s a great reason to die. Sign me up.
Secondly, an “exhibition match” means we will not be challenging each other for positions on the “flexeladder” - otherwise we’d have to wrestle nude, like at the “Intergalactic Trollympics”. I’d count that as a blessing.
We bring up the question of face and heel. You can read about these on tvtropes, but the narrator does a pretty good job of explaining.
Tumblr media
In troll society, of course, the traits we’d ascribe to a ‘heel’ are valorised. So we’re just going to get crushed under her heel. Indeed.
Time for the match. The showrunner does the announcement for Nihkee.
Tumblr media
In a clear allusion to good old Equius, Nihkee’s entrance is accompanied by a shower of thrown glasses of milk from the fans.
And opposing her whole deal is...
Tumblr media
“Some messed up lowblood alien”. Huh, usually when I go into an arena fight in games I’m the “mysterious stranger”. Who could have seen this coming?
Tumblr media
Ah, that’s what fate was working towards this whole time! Thanks, Doc Scratch, for your dedication to the cause of wrestling.
So, naturally, we’re playing the foreigner. Here to prove our superiority to trollkind. TVTropes naturally has an article on this: the Foreign Wrestling Heel. We’re going by the book here.
Tumblr media
We put up a good bit of bravado. But are we prepared to face, Nihkee demands, her...
Tumblr media
OK, you got me. I’m laughing out loud again.
The protagonist puts up a pretty good show, it seems like - barely dodging Nihkee’s attacks in a suitably dramatic fashion. We bleed, but the narration suggests that under the stage lights, the trolls will take it as ordinary ‘rust’ blood and not ‘mutant’ red. We hope.
Nihkee invites us to attack with appropriate pomp. But we...
Tumblr media
...don’t do that, not directly. We springboard off the edge of the cage in “a classic clothesline manoeuvre”... and get knocked the fuck out.
Tumblr media
But we haven’t reached our second decision point yet, so that can’t be the end of us. Hopefully we gave the trolls what they wanted.
Tumblr media
Do we even have a fourth wall anymore?
Anyway, this turns out to be Nihkee’s hive. She is not impressed at our ring performance - getting knocked out by our own attack. Well, that’s fair.
Tumblr media
Training montage incoming?
Tumblr media
Hell yes. (She calls everyone sister, including the announcer guy, in case you’re wondering if that’s an implicit gendering of the protag.)
She’s brought us to her BRAWNISEUM. As we can see in the illustration... it’s pretty much made for Space Marines to train at.
After her speech about our indomitable will and potential, she invites us to ASCEND with her.
Hell yeah. Let’s [S] ASCEND together!
Tumblr media
Of course we fucking take it.
We start with the acid treadmill. (The acid doesn’t seem to be depicted.) She turns it up... a bit fast.
Tumblr media
We manage to run at 12 miles per hour - which is about bronze level good. Apparently all the machines rate us by blood colour. While the low end of the hemospectrum gets the badass psychic powers, the high end gets the physical strength, it seems. There’s more jokes about how great our legs are - they merit a cerulean!
All the while, Nihkee ‘encourages’ us in a way that’s gendered in the opposite way that things usually are on Earth.
Tumblr media
After half an hour of that, she gives us a protein shake... except it’s not a protein shake but ‘gatorade mixed with milk’. Amazing.
Then we get tested for ‘pressure resistance’ in a soft iron maiden. Apparently that’s olive level.
The overall verdict?
Tumblr media
Hooray.
We do more of this - including getting chased by a literal toothy monster. By the time we finally collapse...
Tumblr media
She’s impressed by our commitment - our “strength of heart and soul”. And our great appreciation for the MOST RIGHTEOUS OF PURSUITS... earns us the recognition of “workout friend”.
Tumblr media
And that rounds out the arc. Presumably after some more of this, the narrator will be due for a return to the ring.
Tumblr media
Go us!
Easy arc to find the right answers in, evidently. Now to see what happens if we hesitate.
First of all, before the match...
Tumblr media
We can’t watch as she pulls out lowblood challengers from the audience and smashes their faces into the spikes. Oh, trolls. We get treated to an image of this, too.
Tumblr media
Mmm, indeed.
Now, if we hesitate later before the workout session...
Tumblr media
She dismisses us - unworthy of her gifts, unwilling to reach our full potential.
Tumblr media
She tells us to get out of her sight. The narration steps in to make another meta joke (that’s like three this arc?)
Tumblr media
We get a fake out fade to black and the first note of the end card music... but then!
Tumblr media
...GET RIIII(...)IIIPPPPPED! In our own way.
Tumblr media
D --> Hmm, 100k at this e%tremely subtle reference.
Anyway, that someone turns out to be... Stelsa! And Tyzias, who happens to be present. There’s a brief discussion of a fast food service called ‘door smash’, and Stelsa’s love of scheduling. They’re cute together.
But let’s get down to business... to defeat...
Tumblr media
...our own flimsiness.
Stelsa’s into it.
Tumblr media
Then we hang with her and Tyzias for a bit. We suggest Tyzias might consider energy drinks.
Tumblr media
This arc then extends over... a long time!
Tumblr media
Multiple weeks! And the training seems to be going well...
Tumblr media
It’s almost as if ‘drill sergeant’ isn’t the ideal demeanour for a coach after all.
But as we go to show off our progress to Nihkee, the question of this being a non-canon branch leads us to hesitate.
Tumblr media
So we decide to ‘blitz our chakras’ to try and work this out. We put on some ocean noises (which leads to a change in the soundtrack! soft music starts playing, seguing into the menu music) and... start imagining some metaphors.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
In our reverie, we slip beneath the surface of the river.
Tumblr media
Things get kind of meta. I’m just gonna take a bunch of screenshots because this seems... important.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The images of failed branches, all these catastrophes, blur together on top of each other.
Tumblr media
We are implored to ‘find our river’. And we find the two branches of the current route... one sounding much more inviting than the other.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then things get REALLY meta.
Tumblr media
And then we get the rest of the arc in some kind of summary form, all in this... letterboxed? That’s not the right word, but whatever... all in this view. Nihkee is not pleased to see us. We come up with the idea of sneaking in.
It does not seem to end well.
Tumblr media
She chases us on one leg and we escape by getting her run over by a train. But she becomes a cyborg coming to chase us down, terminator-like. Yeah, seriously.
Tumblr media
NIHKEEBORG spends a year hunting us across the wilderness. And eventually... she catches us. We die.
Tumblr media
And coming out of the meditation, we decide... not to do that. We just go to Stelsa’s house instead, and let Nihkee be.
Tumblr media
Oof.
God, you never know what you’re going to stumble onto in this game. That was amazing.
Next time: FINAL CHAPTER.

Rockman.EXE Episode 24 Review.
Nothing like a nice father-son talk after a long time.
Tumblr media
“Can’t talk, eating”
Tumblr media
Yay!
We open the episode with Commander Beef explaining what happend last time.
Tumblr media
We begin in Netto’s house where he and his friends are listening to his father about the programs in their PETs being Rockman’s memory data, and that all they need now is the “frame” in order to restore Rockman, which is the body.
Tumblr media
Netto asks where the frame is and his dad tells him that it is back in the SciLab aka Science Labs where he created Rockman. However, because Pharohman is now living there, it won’t be easy to access the network.
Dr. Hikari aka Yuichiro Hikari, tells them that there is a way to enter.
Tumblr media
After hearing this, Yaito’s forhead shines and quickly tells him that she can provide them with everything they need, since she is rich!
Tumblr media
So this time it’s up to the Loser Squad and Roll, huh?
Tumblr media
That useless woman is finally gonna be useful?!
We then see a shot of the Science Labs (that will become a recurring place in Axess) where a group of scientists outside are trying to get back in, since Pharohman kicked them out in the last episode.
Tumblr media
“I know this because it says no in the screen”
Aren’t they like computer programers? Don’t they know how to hack?
We also cut to the World Three lair where we are reminded that Wily is sending his army of Bombmen and Stonemen to capture Pharohman at Scilab, and after this, we return to Netto’s house.
Tumblr media
“Quiet boy! I have one job in this anime and I am not gonna let you ruin it, now go sit down!”
As they wait for the spaghetti to be ready, Netto’s dad and Meiru are seen talking in the background.
Tumblr media
Well that’s a weird conversation!
Meiru -”Netto has been depressed.”
Dr. Hikari -”Do you like dogs?”
Meiru -”Yes.”
Dr. Hikari -”Give me your PET.”
Meiru -”OK.” *Hands over PET*
After this weird exchange we cut to Higureya where Higure-san is polishing his chips, when he is interrupted by Commander Beef who breaks in and shows him his Net Agent ID.
Tumblr media
What’s with that picture? That’s not a legit ID.
Anyway, the Commander asks Higure if he can help him access the Dark Net, is that like the Under Net? Does that mean Higure is a hacker?
Higure says that its hard work to access the Dark Net and denies to help Beef until a disguised Saloma and Miyuki enter the shop as well.
Tumblr media
Come on Miyuki, you’re not even trying.
Higure is still reluctant to help them, but luckily the Commander knows how to convince him.
Tumblr media
“I told you we didn’t need money to bribe this guy”
Let’s see...  A Dream Aura, super rare, a Pop up, kinda rare, and... a Quake? Quakes aren’t rare! Not that color anyway.
After some father-son “bonding” over meat ball spaghetti, we see them in the van Yaito got them along with the equipment heading to the Science Labs, where Netto asks a very good question.
Tumblr media
... WHAT? THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE QUESTION!
After this... answer, the Navis sense a virus near by.
Tumblr media
It turns out to be a “Mole” virus from the Pop Up chip we saw earlier, and despite the name, it is actually a little dog who digs holes. Roll quickly takes a liking to the virus, but Gutsman gets jealous and tries to chase it away.
The tiny virus dissapears into a hole teasing Gutsman, the hole dissapears but then reapears in a very weird place.
Tumblr media
The dub didn’t find this shot weird at all? Gutsman tries to punch the virus but it dissapears making Gutsman punch himself in the stomach, or should I say, the gut?
Tumblr media
Meiru -”You put a virus in my PET?”
Dr. Hikari -“Yes, I also named him after my favorite band”
They finally arrive at Scilab where the scientists from before recognize profesor Hikari and gladly help him prepare everything for their plan to enter the network.
Tumblr media
They plug-in the Navis and Dr. Hikari begins to guide them through various security gates in order to get to the network safely.
Tumblr media
I’m pretty sure this is a graphic interpretation of how hacking a computer works.
The Navis enter the Scilab network where they discover that it has been transformed into a desert. After falling on Roll.
Tumblr media
Probably because Pharohman wants to feel like he lives in ancient Egypt.
After commercials, we return to our heroes walking through the desert where Rush decides to tag along, making me wonder where he was during the security doors scene.
Tumblr media
Meanwhile, Higure manages to access the Dark Net for the Net agents to plug-in their Navis, where they are gonna have to fight some viruses to get through.
Tumblr media
I don’t remember the Commander and Saloma having matching capes.
Back to the Loser Squad plus Roll, it seems Pharohman sent out some Piranha viruses to attack them, Piranha viruses that can dig.
Tumblr media
Gutsman uses his Guts Hammer to force them out of the sand and Glyde shoots them with his cannon.
Their next challenge comes in the form of a sand storm created by a group of Typhoon viruses.
Tumblr media
Netto’s friends are unable to see or comunicate with their Navis during the sand storm. We cut back to the Net agents where their Navis have made an entrance to the Scilab network through the Dark Net.
Tumblr media
The Net agents plan is to infiltrate the Scilab network to cut off the power to the main computer, since Pharohman controls all networks from there, shutting down the main server will weaken him.
We return to our heroes unable to move due to the sand storm, until Rush reveals a new ability.
Tumblr media
Since Rush is a virus, he is able to communicate with certain types of viruses like Metools. Rush uses his holes to appear behind the Typhoon viruses and commands an army of metools to take them out, making the sand storm stop.
After this, they walk down an undergroud path where they come across a metal door.
Tumblr media
Once Glyde opens the door, a bright light covers the Navis and they are transported to a room where Rockman’s frame is building itself.
Netto’s dad tells him to send Rockman’s memory there by plugging in, just in time for the frame to be compleated.
Tumblr media
However, Rockman isn’t waking up, Dr. Hikari says that a server migth have shut down and it might take longer for Rockman’s Navi mark to reach the frame.
The Navis wait, but Pharohman shows his face, literally, to confront them. He begins to destroy the room with an earthquake causing Rockman’s container to fall and break. The ground between Rockman and his friends is torn apart, Roll tries to save him but Gutsman stops her.
Tumblr media
Rockman’s body falls into the abyss, the earthquake gets worse, and Roll tries to cover herself from the falling ceilling, she opens her eyes to discover that Gutsman stopped a giant boulder from crushing her, allowing Glyde and Iceman to escape taking Roll with them. The weight of the boulder is too much for Gutsman and the whole place caves in.
Tumblr media
Gutsman seems to have been deleted as Dekao cries for him after this. Roll, Glyde and Iceman manage to escape, but they encounter Pharohman soon after. Just then, Pharohman is ambushed by the army of Bombmen and Stonemen.
Tumblr media
It’s a stand off between everyone, ending the episode with Rockman’s body still falling.
Tumblr media
Except for the close up, his body is CGI for some reason.
My thoughts?
This episode is a little boring without Rockman, his friends are not the strongest Navis, but they’re doing their best to save him.
It’s frustrating for Netto not being able to do anything, but in this episode he learns that he should have faith in his friends, which I guess is what his father was trying to tell him when he asked about Rockman’s memories appearing in their PETs.
Netto’s dad was introduced at the end of the last episode, in the first episode Netto mentioned that he travels the world due to his job, meaning that he is rarely at home. He was mostly absent in the game too, he usually worked late at the Scilab and was ocasionally called to other contries. Yuichiro is one of the top Net scientists in Japan, so his work is very important, he was the one who created Rockman based on his father’s research. Thankfully, the anime doesn’t follow the game’s storyline about Rockman’s true origin, but I’ll explain that in the next review.
We also see the Net Agents taking action in trying to stop Pharohman by accessing the Scilab network through the Dark Net. In the dub, this was changed to them asking Higure to hack into the Scilab computers, I dont know why they changed it since hacking directly into a private sever is worst than using a short cut through the bad part of the internet. The dub version also added data bits after the boulder crushes Gutsman, it wasn’t confirmed if he was deleted when the room caved in, but I dont know why the dub decided to kill him off.
The episode introduces Rush, based on the classic Megaman’s robot dog and partner, only in this version he is a virus and actually belongs to Roll. The Mole virus is a weak and harmless virus that can be found in the undernet in the first game and pays homage to the Wack-a-mole game, where in order to get the Pop Up chip you have to guess the hole it’ll come out from and shoot it ten times, if you fail to do so, it will flee.
Tumblr media
I’m a dog person, but I personally don’t like Rush, he starts out as a puppy in this episode, but later on he becomes more of a Snoopy clone. He is annoying and selfish and I think he just hangs around with Roll because she is a pretty girl. He is more of a comic relief, but he gains a rare ability in a future episode that just makes me hate him even more.

Episode 2 - “Y'all. Vote me out fr cause I'm inactive as fronk” - Joshua (through Autumn)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I hate flag-making challenges. I will not be helpful at all, and I hope that someone else can take the reigns and lead us to victory. I honestly feel safe going into a tribal council, but I do not want to test that theory.
Next morning
With Chips and Jules working on the crest designs, I feel confident that we will do well in the challenge. Maybe not the best, but definitely not the worst. I still have the same anxious feeling that my tribe is not active enough for my taste, but I will just have to live with it for now. Besides, at least this is not immunity because that we increase my anxiety by so much. But, I keep forgetting to search the idol hunt which is my bad, but it is just so hard and long that I do not really feel like searching all the time lol
Tumblr media
ART CHALLENGE <333 i love these challenges. Jess made my picture 110% better and its super cute. The note that she wrote with it is also hella cute and I love the whole HP aesthetics bc i never got to go to real hogwarts ;-; but i'm sure most of yall can related. The boys weren't too helpful but nick was better than jacob who is sick. Nick was way more active aka jacob said 3 sentences the entire challenge sooooo…. if we lose idk I might just save jacob anyways bc pregame relations.
Tumblr media
Won reward, but now we have to win immunity again. I really hope that this reward helps us continue to survive. I don't want to have to vote anyone out. We've been getting first, but I really just want to survive this challenge, its known to be hard.
Tumblr media
I think I have been stuck with the second most challenge inept tribe in the history of my ORG career. I literally said so many answers in my version of the story and Jules just fucked it up. And then they got the girl's name wrong. And then they started mixing up characters. I know I did well, but fuck these people. God. Now we need a tribe to get 0 which is very unlikely. I will just resign myself to tribal. I hope and pray that these people have some common sense and do not want to vote me out
Tumblr media
Listen. Listen. Listen. I dang knew this story was going to be Harry Potter based. I knew in my brain and in my heart that I shouldn’t have been the one to start that thing. What do I do? Start the dang thing. Oh well. We did alright. I would be shocked if we won tho but if we don’t I’ll be relieved. I def don’t feel confident enough but I really had a lot of fun with my tribe. I really miss this and really hope that my time isn’t cut short! I feel really good about my tribe mates sincerely. And that’s kind of scary! I would hate to see any of us to go and how it’s going to affect the bond we have if we vote someone out. In this moment with Max sitting out, it may be him who goes if we go to tribal. I hope that isn’t the case. I’ve got my fingers crossed for us. Huff Puff strong!
Tumblr media
Honestly Jules dropped the ball sis!! But it’s okay, I love her. She’s really nice and I know she tried her best. Plus she’s in an alliance with me and Owen, so we should have the numbers against Joanna or Miguel if we go to tribal. Personally, I’d prefer Joanna to go. She’s kinda domineering, but she’s also an asset in challenges thus far. She is organized and direct. I’ve also talked to her a bit more than Miguel, so I guess I don’t really care who goes.
I’m happy I didn’t fuck up the reward comp and the shit that I drew got us a win!
Tumblr media
I really hope I don't bomb that challenge, I answered everything that Kevin talked to me about.... I think!  The rest of them tried very hard but I am SOOO glad that I asked to do my part at the end because my memory of repeating things is horrendous but I'm usually pretty good at bullshitting test answers... too bad I got some of the multiple choice stuff wrong.
I think that if we do lose I am still in a good spot on this tribe and hopefully I won't be in danger.  I feel like I'm on everyone's good side and Max kind of just disappeared so maybe we could just vote him out this round? Idk.
Hopefully we don't have to worry about it.  I smell a swap coming up pretty soon and I just hope I'm either with Owen or with some of the people from my tribe.  I have no idea if they know anyone or are close with anyone in the other houses.
I'm still feeling the closest to Lily and Kevin but I have been talking to Landen a good bit too these days so hopefully we'll be safe or we can all just agree on Max.
16 minutes later
OOOOOH IS LANDEN PAVING THE WAY FOR A MOVE TO SEND MAX PACKING???
He just told me that me, lily and kevin are precious angels that must be protected and that he likes Max when he's around too so that sounds like something... HMMM...
I can't get cocky, I always go home when I get cocky. But I like this.
Tumblr media
my host chat saw this first (shout-out to Drewie and Dennis): Y’all I’m an idiot. I thought I only knew 2 people in this game (Owen and chips). Then I remembered I also know Jess, Autumn, and dan. Literally love and respect each of you my brain just don’t got the strongest memory no more. I’m so sorry!!!! I literally just told landen I only know 2 ppl. I’m just gonna try to not remember it happened.
Ugh.....I need to get it together.
Tumblr media
I love my tribe talking to each other now that we have to!! Everyday I'm like damn either I'm on the bottom or I'm not the only one with piss poor social game. Ok so... the moment the hosts said we got 1 point, I started getting ready for tribal lmaaaooo. No sense crying over it either because all the tribes basically just had to show up in order to beat that
Like how could we not go to tribal with a score of ONE? That shit's embarrassing hahaha. That's like when your teacher passes the test back to everyone sitting around you but not you so you KNOW it's bad. But you know what? It's all good cause I'd rather us take the L now and get it out the way and we can all laugh about it cause losing won't be funny after long. The real question is: will Gryffindor do this the easy way or the hard way caaauusse we all know who the weakest link is. I just wanna see if someone puts two and two together without my prodding. Chips already said we voting together right and I'm like yes sir. There's no better place than being on the same page
Tumblr media
WE WON OMG!! Jules basically gave me nothing, which is fine, i understand, but i'm so impressed that we pulled that off. Absolutely killing these reward challenges really helps!
Tumblr media
"Y'all. Vote me out fr cause I'm inactive as fronk."
Tumblr media
Tonight we learned Joshua is a feminist selfless man that I stan because he's volunteering to go home without me having to put his name out, which I was going to do. Like imagine if every guy had that kind of self-awareness, to recognize why he should be the vote and then embrace it instead of wreaking havoc. And wanting to see others succeed more than yourself? King shit! He knew when to hang it up and did just that. Like the number of times I've seen a vote get complicated for no fucking reason because everyone wants a fight to the death. Enough- I'm old, tired, and cannot exert too much energy at once. We got a long game ahead of us, not to mention quarantine. So from the bottom of my heart, thank you Joshua. We need more players like you and I appreciate your service
Tumblr media
im back back BACK AGAIN with another confessional! not much has changed but a few updates for the sake of these being required :) 1. max has become even more inactive, he's not reached out to me personally since the first day and any time i messaged him after that he's sent me nothing back that i can build a convo off of, so we just have stopped speaking. Luckily this challenge only required four people and everyone else SHOWED UP!! or at least spoke about their availability, while he did not. However in his defense he said he was having some issues at home and i feel for him but his inability to connect has been an issue before he spoke about anything in our tribe chat with us. I'm trying to give him the benefit of the doubt but this point my relationships with the other 3 are leaps and bounds ahead of where I am at with Max. Maybe he can pick up some speed if we continue winning challenges but, it's not looking too hot. SPEAKING OF CHALLENGES, well first we lost reward AGAIN, but we won immunity.. AGAIN! thank goodness for not being first or second boot, i always love being able to avoid these early tribals and if i can get to a swap without seeing one that would be ideal, but also if we do go and maybe vote out max? wouldn't be the worst thing. Moral of the story we won and thats exciting! however.. if we didn't.. the first big push of strategic talk came up with landen when he hinted at being frustrated with max's lack of presence which I also share. I do believe if we lost me and landen could have most definitely picked up ruthie and lily to form a four against him, if he even came to tribal. That would be my ideal situation and if we continue on this tribes hopefully it gives me a nice cushion to fall on if we do lose so i dont have to entirely blow up my social game within the first few rounds by voting out someone i've built a connection with. If max can go and the remaining four hufflepuffs can make a swap I would feel good about that, and maybe in the right circumstances we could work together on the swapped tribes because i genuinely like all of these people (yes max too but in this specific scenario he wouldn't be included bc... well..) anyways to close this off i still absolutely ADORE lily, she is fun and our conversations are really good, and same goes for ruthie, hopefully i dont have to see either of them or myself go home before we can really start playing because i think we could do some damage. :) ok anyways this was longer than i thought it would be goodbye
Tumblr media
I'm still not over the fact that I was able to answer 7 of those questions right. I have the memory of a plastic fork.  I also love that we are SAFE!
I do kind of hope things get spicy and we swap this round and become two tribes of 9. That'd be cute. I don't want VI to get bored and crack on me. BUT ALSO I think I have solid enough relationships with almost everyone on this tribe... so who knows?!
Also... these hoes really out here trying to search for an idol in PUBLIC. IN PUBLIC. WHAT ON EARTH IS GOING ON HERE?
Tumblr media
Dear diary, seems like we keep winning challenges, which is great but tbh i feel like every time i give a disadvantage to my team because english is not my first Language, and so far its been a vocabulary test and a listening and speaking test. I mean I knew I signed up for school but damn. Give me some macarena  or drinking tequila challenge and I'll crush it
Tumblr media
bippity boppity boo im back again with almost no content kdfasjhdskjfh
Ravenclaw working smarter and we keep winning, period!!! Thankful that y'all put Dan and I together....bc truly we will be unstoppable in these competitions. I kind of want to lose soon though to see how things would shake out, but I don't really have bad blood with anyone. Joanna seems passionate enough in the tribe chat and the challenges, even if she's dry in PMs. Miguel still won't give me anything other than a "how are you," but I hope the best for him in life lol
Still love Jules and Dan, and we made a three person alliance, but I haven't talked with either of them much one on one since it happened.... I really need to step the social game up eventually, but right now, I'm coasting, and maybe that's what I need before I find the time and resources in this game to strike!!
The idol hunt is hard but Dan seems onto something. Honestly he's gonna be a big threat sooner or later so he's sticking around as long as I can keep him! The last two games I've been in I've seen "goats" get dragged to the end and locked in final 3 positions, and then these perceived goats have ended up winning. so I want the big players in this game to rise to the top and fight it out in the end!
Tumblr media
let’s say i am como we dice.. fed up with a lot :flushed: a lot meaning joshua starting to get on my nerves a bit! he’s genuinely sweet n all but.. the way he complained about us losing by putting down others work HHH pissed me off. which is why i will be voting him out hehe.. but so far my misting has worked because no one wants to vote me out! mwah
Tumblr media
Slytherin killed the memory challenge. We thought we were all gonna flop bc all of us thought we sucked at memory stuff. um well we knocked it out of the park? Ravenclaw got 4 and huff/gryff got 1. We got 7 so oops. I do hope things turn out well for Gryffindor but no one I really know/care about is in that house so I'm not too worried. I hope they continue to lose or even hufflepuff since ravenclaw has 2 of my friends in it.
Tumblr media
I have been TERRIBLE with confessionals but only because there's really not been much going on? I have an alliance with Dan and Owen, and even though I wrote off Joanna I was DEFINITELY wrong in doing that. Miguel is sort of the outlier. Our team is kinda iconic though? We've done so well on all the challenges. I might be the weakest link? More to come.
Tumblr media
it's pretty sad but the whole tribe has agreed to vote max if we lose, basically he's just never around because of what's going on at home and like thats sad but... we gotta do what we gotta do *shrug*. I'm really feeling good about Hufflepuff moving forward, i've never bonded this much this easily with EVERYONE on a tribe and i just feel like if we keep winning or even if we lose and have to vote out max, we could be a great group for the future. especially i feel great about working with kevin, we dominated eve's game after eve came between us in 2020 that dastardly witch... :P (juuust kiddin. love ya!) but now we could totally do well in this game too i think.....
lily and ruthie are just so sweet and we really bond talking about pretty much anything,, especially lily is a great conversationalist and i just find it so natural to talk to them both. i'd love to work with any combination of people from hufflepuff in the future, hopefully i start sucking a little less at all these challenges. i think i did pretty great on memory :D
Tumblr media
So here is the summary of what has happened since last time
We had a reward challenge that was drawing. Mine sucked. Apparently 3/4 so no reward.
We played Telephone. My team didnt realize that details are the most important parts of that and didnt share then with Autumn so Autumn didnt share them with me. Then I didnt know them when asked about them.
We scored 1 point and lost. Since I still have no alliance I'm scared that it could be me. So I kind of got an idea how everyone was feeling.
Juls let me know she wanted to vote Joshua and- it's not me so that's fine!
Then I was talking to Autumn about it and - OOP! Josh asked to be voted out. So unless he plays an idol I'm supposing he is leaving after asking to go.
Tumblr media
woo my tribe won immunity!! we are safe! i’m glad bc i’m forming good relationships with ppl on my tribe. i think we all get along rly well so i hope we keep winning. the challenge was fun and i slayed bc i’m skinny mwah
Tumblr media
Ya know what’s refreshing? Being on a tribe that actually wins!!! The last three games I’ve played I’ve been on flop ass starting tribes.
Now we’ll lose every challenge
10 minutes later
This sickening bitch just found a hidden immunity idol!!!! Good until f6 L A D I E S!!!!!!
Tumblr media
HI BARBS SO I WAS GROUNDED SO I MISSED THE CHALLENGE BUT MY HUFFLEPUFF BABS SLAYED SM SO IM LIVING
Tumblr media
CONFESSIONAL 2.1 —
Not much strategy has happened this episode, just simply tribal bonding! We are SlytherWINNING, getting reward and immunity this time! How wonderful.
Regarding my tribe mates, I love all three. I pray, pray, pray we make swap, i do Noh want to be a dirty bad guy and have to vote one out.. yet. Haha.
I was drunk during immunity, one full glass of rum & coke, so I am shocked that we won immunity. Honestly, I feel silly admitting I was drunk to my tribe because... if I can do that when drunk, imagine if I was sober. Competition Beast, duh.
I also gave up my run this round for the tribe to use. Was partially social, partially I just do not understand how to do the Hunt, so I might as well help the greater good. Either way, it comes off positively.
Hoping for a smooth journey for a little longer!
x nick
Tumblr media
Joshue has basically quit at this point so I have no fear going into tribal
