You can learn a lot about how something was built by watching it break. At least that's my excuse for watching over a hundred hours of YouTube "gone wrong" videos instead of actually getting any work done this week. Take, for example, the collapse of a bridge. If you'd never seen one crumble to bits and drop into the water, you wouldn't know they're made out of steel rebar with concrete poured over top. Any bridge you try to make without that knowledge would totally suck ass. In a way, that bridge gave its life so that others could live. Thanks for your sacrifice, bridge.
Among my friends who are especially productive – "capable," if you will – they get into these little funks where they get depressed about not being able to finish their projects. What they do then is create a little tiny side project, small enough that they can start and finish it quickly, and then reassure themselves that they can actually get things done. Even if those things are a little pipe cleaner kitty. Absolutely adorable, and confirms their place as creators of the universe. Destroying things is the same deal for me.
Nothing gets the old creative juices going like turning a perfectly good automatic transmission entirely into neutrals, for instance. It gets other juices going, too, but that's a problem for the highway cleanup crew to worry about. Once I've been freed of the constraint of "this car needs to run right now," then things can get kinda weird. Maybe I want to put a manual transmission in, push an extra pedal. Perhaps I want a Lenco drag-racing transmission, and I need to come up with a disguise so I can trick the guy at the swap meet into giving it to me ("Lenco inspector," I'll bark, "hand 'em over.")
So take it from me. If you're feeling stuck on a project, or otherwise uninspired, go recklessly destroy an object of actual value and watch that sucker fall apart. Holy shit! Did you know springs are in these things? I better save each and every one of these springs just in case they come in handy later. I'll probably need to build something to organize them...

bleeding blue | part fourteen preview
Blue holds her arm out, stopping you from taking another step.
"Sh. I see one."
Up ahead, a squirrel stills on a tree, beady eyes unblinking. In a matter of seconds, Blue throws her knife and pins it to the bark through the stomach. 
"Nice," you comment. "You got it on the first try this time."
In your hand is the other squirrel she killed for you. Ghost started working on your bow yesterday. He didn't say anything to you about it, but you spotted him sitting on the porch chiseling away at a hunk of oak. Until he's finished, you've struck another deal: helping Blue skin the rabbits in exchange for her killing squirrels with you. She's better at killing them with a knife than you are, and you needed something to get you off the couch, anyway.
"This is good practice for me." She wriggles the knife out and hands you the kill. "Poor guy didn't see it coming."
"Probably better that way."
She slips the knife back to her ankle. "Do you need more? Or is two enough."
"Two is enough. I saw these flowers by the trench that I think are edible."
"You can eat flowers?" She makes a face. The two of you begin heading back toward the camp. You didn't go off too far with her. Ghost said she wasn't allowed to go past the pond without him. Truthfully, you were surprised he let her go with you at all. 
"Yeah. Pink Sorrel. They taste lemony, and I'll add the leaves, too. Like a salad."
"Yum," she says sarcastically. "Did Paul teach you that?"
You nod. "He knew a lot about plants."
"Are you sure he didn't like you?" 
"Blue," you almost groan. "You've asked me this twice now."
"Well, you seemed to have spent a lot of time with him, and he taught you a lot of things."
"You can spend time with someone and learn things from them without... liking them."
"I wouldn't know," she shrugs, waving her hand around. "There are no boys here for me to spend time with besides Ghost." 
There is a pause as a cloud rolls over the sun, turning everything dim before it passes. The weather these past few days has been fluctuating like true spring. Cold showers in the morning, intense sunlight by noon, and clouds that come and go. The cabbages Blue planted have sprouted fat, juicy leaves. You've mentally scolded yourself for not including seeds in your deal with Ghost. 
"So when are you and him going to start training or whatever?" Blue speaks up, switching subjects.
"Training?" you repeat.
"He told me you wanted to learn some things." She glances at you. "Look, let me just warn you, he can be a real hard ass. One time, he made me climb up and down a tree twenty times without stopping. And another time, he made me throw knives over and over until I hit the exact same spot on the tree again."
Right. Somehow, that last request you made of him has slipped your mind. You did ask him to teach you how to better defend yourself against other people.
It's been over a week now, and the two of you still haven't talked much except for the necessities. Honestly, it's probably best that way. Maintaining a clinical relationship with him should keep the peace and maybe even earn more of his trust. You're growing confident that he doesn't see you as much of a threat anymore. Last night, you ran into him again after waking up sweaty at some odd hour, and all he did was walk past you, step outside for a cigarette, and then go back to his room. He didn't seem suspicious of you being up at all.
That said, the reminder of the 'training' he's supposed to give you makes your teeth snag onto your lip. 
When you don't respond, Blue adds, "What exactly do you want him to show you? I hate to say it, but I don't think he'll give you one of his guns."
"No," you shake your head. "I don't want that. It's not Greys that I'm as worried about. As long I've got distance, I can use my bow for them. It's more about... other people. They get close. Too close."
"Well, you can always bite their nose off," she gives a bump to your shoulder.
You cringe. "I'd rather not have to do that again."
She pauses, looking at her boots. "What did it taste like?"
"Fucking awful. Probably the grossest thing I've ever experienced."
She looks up. "If you were a Grey, you would've loved it."
"Well, I'm human still, and I much prefer these guys." You wag the dead squirrels in front of her face and she laughs. If you could replace all her tears with that sound, you would.
"You still haven't answered my question," Blue tilts her head. "When are you getting started? Because I have some training in mind for you, too."
You arch a brow but don't question it. "Um. I don't know. Ghost hasn't said anything to me about it, and he's busy working on my bow right now."
"Why don't you ask him, then?" She shoots you a knowing smirk. "Are you scared of him, Twix?"
"No," you say all too quickly. "No... I'm not. I just don't know how to talk to him. He's not exactly approachable."
"Just do what I do. I say whatever I want to him. Except when he's pissed, then—" she freezes for a moment and lays a hand on your shoulder. "—it's better to shut up and listen. Believe me."
You speak under your breath. "Noted."

OUTLAW (23)
ATEEZ poly!ot8 x Reader
Cowboy AU / Wild West
Series Masterlist
Warning: none, things get spicy again. You already knoooow!
A/N BETA READ (@mariana-mmtz). Just know I am reading every single one of your comments and reblogs. I love them so much!
Tumblr media
You had been crouched down at the edge of the spring, wringing out water from the clothes you had been cleaning for the boys. You had been watching them fondly as they played with each other in the water. The boys had bathed and just spent the rest of the time enjoying themselves. Some of them had already dried off, moving to get going back to camp to return with something to clean. You hadn’t realized that they had all left until Seonghwa came up to you.
“Need help, Pretty Girl?” Seonghwa dropped down next to you, pulling out some shirts to help you. 
“If you would like.” You gave him a beaming smile. 
“You don't need to do this.” He told you, dropping the wet clothing into a basket to hang up later in the camp. 
“It's okay.” You told him. “I'm used to it with my brothers and the hotel.”
Seonghwa pursed his lips. “Yes, but the others can do it themselves. It keeps them busy.” He told you pointedly. 
You giggled, looking him over. You noticed he was still dressed in the same clothes from breakfast, making you wonder if he had cleaned himself with the others. “Have you bathed?” You finally asked him. 
“I have not, my dear.” Seonghwa hummed. “Have you?”
“I was waiting for you guys to finish up.” You explained, throwing in the last of the laundry. 
“Someone has to stay with you, ya know.” Seonghwa laughed. “Can't leave you alone.”
“Sure.” You playfully rolled your eyes, standing up. You wiped your hands on San’s shirts, glancing around to figure out how you would clean yourself. 
“Come on. I'll bathe with you.” You quickly looked up at him with wide eyes. “We'll just be turned.” He quickly added. “Well, I'll be turned. You can look all you want.” He gave you a cheeky smile.
“Seonghwa!” You gushed, slapping his arm lightly. 
“I'll get your things ready.” He laughed, moving to grab the clothes Yeosang had given you to wear after bathing.
You watched him carefully, making sure he had his back turned as you began to strip. You had decided to keep your undergarments on, just in case someone else came back while you were in the water. You stepped closer to the edge of the spring, not caring to test the water before entering completely. 
The cold water stung your skin. “Ah!” You screamed, flinching back as you were quick to step back out.
“Pretty girl!?” Seonghwa cried in worry, turning around.
“Seonghwa!” You screamed, covering yourself up and turning around. The man was quick to turn around as well when he noticed you were fine. 
“Why did you scream!?” He shouted back. 
“It's cold!” You whined, slowly allowing your body to sink into the spring. Once you were inside, you turned around to tell Seonghwa it was okay for him to enter. 
He had already undressed while you were getting in, moving to make his way into the pond. As his feet touched the water, he grunted and pulled his leg back. “Ugh. Yeah. You're right.” He cringed, slowly stepping in. 
You kept your eyes on him, watching as he made his promise to keep his head turned the other way. You tried not to ogle at his physic, but it was the first time you were seeing a man naked. Maybe not completely, seeing as he still kept his underwear on. It was still a lot more than you were used to.
“You have really nice skin.” He awkwardly coughed when he had finally settled into the water. 
“Skin?” You chuckled, feeling all the tension leave your body.
“Sorry.” He rubbed at his nose, trying to seem less like a total virgin. “I wanted to compliment you without sounding like a pig.”
Your lips twitched at his way of speaking. It was the sweetest thing you had ever heard anyone say, especially about you. You noticed easily how each of them treated woman, and it made you giddy. They were gentlemen. Something you couldn’t say about a vast majority of the men in Cromer.
“It's okay.” You smiled softly. “Thank you.”
“I mean it.” Seonghwa spoke up. “After spending so much time with you, I noticed how beautiful you are.”
A blush found itself onto your cheeks. You licked your lips to calm the buzzing that was coursing through your body. You began to make your way closer to the boy without noticing. 
“I don't tease you just because. I actually like the blush you get when we compliment you. It makes you look adorable. I can already guess how red you are now.” He laughed to himself, his expression looking dreamy as he thought about his words. 
“You're not looking?” You smiled, watching him shake his head to himself.
“I am a man of my word.” He said.
You finally pulled up behind him, smile still on your lips as you suddenly felt like seeing his face. “Seonghwa.” You hummed. 
“Hm?” He questioned.
“You can turn around.” You told him, wrapping your arms around yourself. You wanted him to see you, but you were still self-conscious about the whole thing.
“You sure?’ You could hear the frown on his face. A warm feeling settled into your chest as you thought about how he wanted to make sure you were positive of your actions. Consent was an attractive thing.
“I wouldn't tell you if I wasn't.” You laughed. “I didn't actually get completely naked.”
You tried your hardest not to giggle when the man slowly turned around, eyes going wide the moment they took in your exposed skin. He had told you he was trying to be a gentleman and yet here he was so obviously staring at your chest. 
“This is still more than what I'm used to seeing.” He shook his head, looking up to meet your eyes. 
He licked his lips, your eyes going down to follow along their path. Your body began to heat up the same way it did when you had been with Mingi. Before you knew it, you had slowly waded closer to Seonghwa, the man looking down at you with heated eyes. You felt your fingers twitch at your side, not knowing if you were allowed to touch him. 
His eyes were quick to catch sight of you moving your arms back and forth, looking at him as you contemplated your desires. 
“May I?” He asked softly, hands pulling out of the water to signal that he wanted to pull you closer.  
You swallowed to clear your dry throat, shuffling closer to Seonghwa. His hands were quick to place themselves on your naked waist, your skin twitching from the touch. Your back arched as his hand pulled around your back to rest there. He pulled you closer to his chest, head dipping down to touch your nose with his. 
“Is this okay?” He whispered on your lips.
“You boys are too polite.” You spoke up, looking back and forth between his eyes and lips. 
He grew bold to place his other hand along your back as well, finally having your chest touch his. Your hands splayed themselves on his pecks, fingers fidgeting along his skin. It was soft, which was why you found yourself trapped by him to move your hands along his body. You could feel his skin flush against your touch, heating up your fingertips.
“Would you want us to be animals?” He huffed, a grin pulling at his lips.
You looked back up from staring at his chest, nose catching on his. “No.” You told him. “I like my sweet boys.”
With a teasing smirk, he surged forward to trap your lips with his. You found yourself immediately responding to him, pressing your chest closer to his as you wrapped your arms around his neck. His hands glided up along your arms, softly stroking your skin as they explored down your body. 
Seonghwa kissed with urgency. He knew how to move his mouth against yours and wasn’t scared of leading. The tip of his long tongue immediately made itself known as he kept touching your bottom lip with it. Unlike Mingi, Seonghwa knew what he was doing and he knew how to get things to where he wanted them. 
He had started at your wrist, gradually moving them down towards your shoulders. As his lips grew more desperate, his hands moved further along your back. When he had his arms around your waist again, he shoved you closer to him, causing you to grunt. His fingers seemed to tighten their grip when he heard you. 
Your pants were like music to his ears, only spurring him on to get you closer. Without thinking about it, his fingers skimmed over the curve of your backside, this time a shaky moan spilling from your lips and onto his. 
He was a lot like Mingi in the sense that he suddenly couldn’t seem to be close enough to you. He found himself gripping tightly onto the underside of your thighs, pushing you forward. The water allowed you to easily lock your legs around his waist, legs crossing behind him. 
His long fingers wrapped around your thighs, arms moving them closer to the inner part. While Mingi worked on instinct, Seonghwa knew what he was doing. He touched and squeezed you in places he knew would get a reaction. With his fingers skimming dangerously closer to the inner parts of you, you began to squirm in his hold. This caused him to let go of one of your thighs, wrapping his arm around your back to keep you steady. 
The grunt he let out as he moved you to where he wanted, made a sudden heat rush down your body. You were sure if you looked at the surrounding water, it would be boiling over. With one arm holding you tightly and the other gripping your thigh, you fell completely into his hold. 
He had pulled away from your lips as your neck was suddenly leveled with his mouth. He took pleasure in attaching his mouth to the sensitive skin. Your head fell back as your eyes rolled back, mouth opening and closing as gasped breaths fell from your lips. 
The build up at the bottom of your belly was starting to show again. While this had been where you pulled back from Mingi, Seonghwa was having none of that. His grip only tightened when he felt you hesitating against him. Because of this, you found yourself moving your hips along his waist. Your head fell forward again, trying to hide the dark blush on your skin. 
Seonghwa had loosened his grip only just a bit to allow you to slip down. Just as you felt something hard touch in between your legs, you cried out when someone called the two of you out. You quickly tighten your hold onto Seonghwa trying to escape the embarrassment of being caught. Seonghwa was quick to turn you around, trying to hide your body from whoever it was that had yelled. 
“If you two are done! I got things to wash and don't need to see you lip locking in front of me.” Wooyoung screamed, throwing his laundry into the spring. 
“Woo.” San scolded as he came up behind the man. 
“At least ask me if I want to join!”

Dandelions
Ominis Gaunt x Hufflepuff! Reader
Summary: Y/n is hopelessly in love with Ominis but, she only watches from afar. Her best friend Poppy finds out her secret one spring afternoon and decides that Ominis needs to know her feelings.
Inspired by: Dandelions by Ruth B (All credit to her for the song. Obviously.)
Tumblr media
Y/n sat a couple tables away from Ominis in the Library. She was trying to study for her History of Magic class but failing too. Her gaze would wander over to Ominis sooner than later. It got to the point where she couldn't look away. She has been in love with Ominis since first year. They accidentally bumped into each other on the way into Charms class and she helped him pick up his books. Yes, he didn't give her an attitude from hell and a cold shoulder but, she couldn't help but admire him. She kept her distance but watched from afar.
She let out a loving sigh and opened her journal. She glanced over at Ominis as she wrote.
Maybe, it's the way you say my name Maybe, it's the way you play your game But it's so good, I've never known anybody like you But it's so good, I've never dreamed of nobody like you
And I've heard of a love that comes once in a lifetime And I'm pretty sure that you are that love of mine
She closed her journal and packed her bag. She departed and passed by Ominis as she went. The scent of warm vanilla filled Ominis's senses, it had become a familiar smell for him. It was an unordinary smell at Hogwarts. He found comfort in the smell. He sometimes found himself searching for the smell but stopped himself every time before finding the source. He just enjoyed the smell before continuing his studies.
------_
Y/n sat under a tree on a beautiful spring day. She plucked Dandelions from the ground a blew them out, one by one with the same wish every time. For Ominis to be hers one day. She opened her journal and scribbled down some more ideas.
'Cause I'm in a field of dandelions Wishing on every one that you'd be mine, mine And I see forever in your eyes I feel okay when I see you smile, smile
Wishing on dandelions all of the time Praying to God that one day you'll be mine Wishing on dandelions all of the time, all of the time
Y/n started to sing her lyrics softly to herself. Not expecting anyone to hear but, of course, not everything can be perfect.
"That's a beautiful song, Y/n! You have a lovely voice. Did you write that song?"
It was her best friend Poppy. She stood next to her, looking down with her amber eyes glowing in the sunshine. Y/n smiled and nodded,
"Yes, I wrote them. It's not finished though. I have some more ideas to write down."
Poppy sat next to her and smiled,
"Who are they written too?"
Y/n raised and eyebrow and looked over at the brunette, making her giggle.
"C'mon Y/n! Every song is written to someone! Your's is a love song so, who's your crush?"
Y/n blushed and stuttered, scrambling to answer with a lie. Poppy smirked,
"I know who it is. It's Ominis! I see how you look at him when we are anywhere near him. You always glance at him with a loving look. I know love when I see it!"
Y/n just blushed and said nothing. Her downcast eyes only confirmed Poppy's accusations. The girl patted her back and stood back up,
"No worries, Y/n. I got you. I'll see you at dinner, Okay?"
Y/n nodded as Poppy turned and walked away. She went back to picking Dandelions and thinking about her lyrics.
-----_
As soon as Poppy was out of Y/n's sight, she ran as fast as she could to find the Slytherin duo. She found them sitting in the courtyard.
"Ominis! Sebastian! I have to tell you something!"
Sebastian looked up from his book and acknowledged her,
"It was that important that you ran all the way here?"
Poppy nodded catching her breath,
"You guys know Y/n right? My bestie?"
Sebastian nodded and looked over to Ominis and nudged him to respond. The blond crossed his arms,
"Yes, I have. I haven't talked to her since first year when she made me drop my books on the way to Charms."
Poppy smiled,
"Let me describe her real quick. She's 5'1, has (E/c) color eyes, (H/c) hair. She always reads in the Library or outside under a shady tree. She always smells like warm vanilla sugar. She's sweet as honey and loves animals. She's also a really good singer, I found out."
Ominis huffed,
"And why do I care about this?"
Poppy smiled,
"Beacuse... She's had a crush on you since first year but, she knows you were kind of sore about bumping into you even though she apologized. So, she kept her distance. I decided it's time for you to know. For her sake. She should at least have a shot before we all graduate and she never sees you again."
Ominis sat in slight shock. She was that comforting scent this whole time? Why did she think that he hated her all this time? Yet, she still harbored this crush on him? He doesn't even acknowledge her.
Sebastian smirked and nudged the blind male,
"Looks like you have a secret admirer. Maybe you should talk to her and get to know her. Couldn't hurt."
Ominis sighed,
"I'll think about it."
Poppy let out a squeal and thanked them before taking off to her dorm.
-----_
It's been a couple days since Poppy figured out about Y/n's crush on Ominis. She went about her days like normal. She was curled up in an armchair on the second floor of the library in the corner. She scribbled ideas for her song in her journal. She let her mind daydream about what it would be like to be dating Ominis before scribbling down her idea.
'Cause it gets so hard to breathe When you're looking at me, I've never felt so alive and free When you're looking at me, I've never felt so happy
She was lost in thought until she felt someone sit in the armchair next to hers.
"Do you mind if I sit with you?"
She knew that voice. It was familiar and foreign at the same time.
Y/n looked up to see Ominis sitting in the armchair. She nodded before realizing what she had done and said a quick 'No, not at all'.
Ominis sat with his Charms book in his lap with his wand waving over it as he read. Y/n could only stare in shock. Said male was just enjoying her scent. He felt as if he was wrapped up in a cozy blanket on a cold winter's day reading in front of a fireplace.
"You know, I realized this week that I haven't talked to you since First Year and I wanted to let you know that I hold no contempt for you about it. I apologize for not telling you sooner, Y/n."
With widened eyes, she sputtered out,
"No no no. You're okay. More than okay actually. I've been just doing my thing... Ya know?"
Ominis let himself smile at her awkwardness. She is really sweet. As sweet as she smells.
"I do know. I've been doing the same... I want to get to know you better."
A short silence fell over them before Y/n squeaked out,
"I would like to get to know you as well, Ominis."
Her face was now a bright red. She was sure she would melt at this rate. Ominis smiled at her,
"I'm happy that you do. Can I expect you to sit with me at dinner possibly?"
"Yes!"
Y/n quickly cleared her throat and made an attempt to cover up her eagerness,
"I mean... Yes, I would be honored to sit with you."
He stood up and ticked his book under his arm,
"Okay. It's settled. I'll see you at dinner at the Slytherin table. See you later, Y/n."
With that, he walked off. Leaving a melting Y/n in his wake.
------_
Y/n read her finished song as she walked to the Great Hall for dinner with Ominis. She tucked her book away as she entered. She looked around before she heard someone call for her.
"Oi! Y/n! We're over here!"
Sebastian waved her over. Ominis smiled in her direction as she approached them. The brunette scooted over giving her a spot between the duo. She settled between them. Ominis was first to speak,
"Thank you for joining us, Y/n. I assume you know Sebastian."
Y/n nodded,
"Yes, I do. I beat him a Crossed Wands recently."
The blind boy smirked,
"You didn't mention that, Sebastian. Embarrassed?"
Sebastian grumbled,
"No. Just disappointed in myself."
Y/n patted his back,
"It's okay. I'll say that it was a lucky shot that got you out, Okay?"
The brunette huffed and crossed his arms. Y/n giggled and Ominis chuckled.
The three of them had a delightful dinner. Ominis learned a lot about Y/n and... he actually felt himself liking her. Her laugh was contagious. She was very smart and could keep up with him on an intellectual level. She was fun but, not idiotic like Sebastian tends to be. She was a breath of fresh air to him. He has never experienced that with anyone before. He enjoyed it.
After these developments, Ominis would seek her out more and more. This went on for a couple weeks before he heard her.
He was walking around outside, looking for Y/n, of course. He paused mid-step, he heard something. It wasn't any normal sounds he had heard around Hogwarts... and the smell of vanilla accompanied it. He instantly started to follow it. He got closer and closer. He heard singing. It was Y/n's voice. Her voice seemed to be carried by the spring breeze into Ominis's ears. He stood behind the tree she sat at and listened.
"Dandelion, into the wind you go Won't you let my darling know? Dandelion, into the wind you go Won't you let my darling know that?
I'm in a field of dandelions Wishing on every one that you'd be mine, mine And I see forever in your eyes I feel okay when I see you smile, smile
Wishing on dandelions all of the time Praying to God that one day you'll be mine Wishing on dandelions all of the time, all of the time
I'm in a field of dandelions Wishing on every one that you'd be mine, mine"
Ominis shifted, the grass crunched when he did, catching the Hufflepuff girl's attention instantly. Her eyes widened as she looked up at him,
"Ominis. Um... How long have you been standing there?"
Ominis could hear the embarrassment in her voice but, brushed off her question with his own,
"Was that song written for me?"
Silence settled between them. Y/n could only stare, her breath caught in her throat. She didn't know what to say for once. Ominis walked closer and sat next to her. He looked over at the stunned girl,
"I'm gonna be honest with you. I started talking to you because Poppy told me you had a crush on me. She told me why you never talked to me again but admired me from afar. She wanted to give you a chance to confess before we graduated and you never would see me again. Sebastian convinced me to talk to you and learn about you."
Y/n felt tears well up in her eyes. She wanted to say something but, Ominis continued,
"I did and I'm happy I started to talk to you. I can honestly say that... that I have feelings for you, Y/n. You are smart, kind, and, from what I hear, beautiful. I like how you and I can have deep talks and how you always get the quotes I say from books I read. I just... I just wish I talked to you sooner and didn't make you think that I was mad about dropping some stupid books."
Y/n sat in shocked silence. She couldn't believe that this was happening. The tears of sadness turned to happiness as she tackled Ominis into a hug. He made a startled yelp but, hugged her back in return with a smile. She said into his chest as they hugged,
"It's okay. I forgive you. I have feelings for you too and yes, the song I wrote was for you. I wished on Dandelions every day that you would be mine."
Ominis let out a chuckle at her muffled rant. He nudged her up and brought her into a kiss. She returned it happily. After they parted, Ominis put his forehead to hers and whispered,
"Please be mine, Y/n."
"Yes. I'm your's, Ominis."

👀 i see you too are into GOT- if you still want Jim Sakai requests would you do a jin x male or GN reader where they spend time together in a hot spring? (SFW ofc)
A/N: hi guys it's been 67 years since I wrote anything and I'm so sad there's LITTLE TO NO FICS OF JIN SAKAI I NEED SOME NEOWWWW 😭(which is why I'm writing now)
Pairings: Jin Sakai (Ghost of Tsushima) x gn!reader (no pronouns)
Tagged: established relationship, SFW, fluff,
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
You rarely ever got to see Jin relax himself. Even when he's home, he'd be out and about sparring with his fellow samurai or running errands for the villagers.
He'd tell you not to worry, he says with his dark circles— "I promise I'll come back and get some sleep," He tells you, cupping your hands softly before letting go to ride off. Or— "My bath can wait. There's something going on in the village right now," He says before he trots around the village with his muddy boots.
Sure he takes quick baths and short naps on his horse but right after that, he's already up and ready to cut down bandits. Has he really ever stopped to relax and breathe? And sleep on an actual bed? Thankfully, you actually managed to find him sitting in one spot while he was sharpening his blade— it doesn't look like he's going anywhere.
You tap his shoulder so as to not startle him, "Jin. You should take a rest," You smiled softly, watching as he sits up straight. He doesn't say anything and just follows your lead as you pull him up from his seat to the hot springs nearby.
"It's about time you get to relax. The hot springs will soothe your skin and make you feel like your muscle sores are all gone," You say as you help him undress and settle into the hot springs.
You rubbed his shoulders and he sighed in relief. Finally he's got the time to think. "Thank you. For worrying about me," He says as you continue, making sure not to get his hair wet.
On the side was a clean washcloth which you picked up to wipe his face to rid of the ash and dirt. He holds onto your hand with the washcloth before you wiped any further, "I think I'm fully capable of cleaning my own face," He laughs, watching as your face turn into a sour look. You just want to help him after all those weeks of neglecting his own wellbeing.
"Okay well, you better clean up then. Your armour especially. I'll get you fresh clothes," He stops you as you're about to leave, "You're not joining me?" He looked as if he's been thinking about that the whole time which makes your heart swell. Now that you think about it, you've been treating him like you're his caretaker, it doesn't hurt to take a short bath with your beloved samurai.
Looking at his eyes for a second longer, you sighed in defeat. When you finished getting ready for the hot springs, Jin holds your hand, guiding you in so you don't slip. As you settle down, Jin sits closer to you as if the hot springs didn't give him enough warmth, your body would.
"Maybe it's time that you relax," He sits you closer, to the point you're leaning onto his shoulder. It's as soft as a pillow— for someone as firm as him. He runs his hand over your head affectionately as you stare at the scene in front of you. You say nothing to keep the peace, and he does too. The only thing you could hear is the birds calling home and the sound of the wind flowing through the trees. With the thought of your significant other getting some proper good rest, your mind was at ease.

ღLaufey songs I associate with twst boysღ
I’m back on my musical bullshit😎 just so we’re clear, this has zero thoughts, behind it o7 Enjoy!!
!!Don’t like,it does nothing. Reblog instesd!!
Characters: Every nrc student + some oc’s
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Riddle Rosehearts: like the movies
“Maybe I'm just old fashioned. Read too many fairytales. It's no wonder I've had no luck, no one's ever good enough. I want a love like I've seen in the movies.That's why I'll never fall in love”
Trey Clover: I wish you love
“And in July a lemonade. To cool you in some leafy glade. I wish you health. And more than wealth. My breaking heart and I agree. That you and I could never be. So with my best, my very best. I set you free”
Cater Diamond: someone new
“I have to get off Instagram. I keep on going back. Looking at our memories. I know that you will soon delete. We turn to strangers in a day. Now you walk away. Every time I catch your eye. When did you become so shy?”
Ace Trappola: Best friend
“I have never tolerated someone for so long. I've never laughed so much. I haven't written a sad song. There's no one else I'd rather fall asleep with. And dream with. You're my best friend in the world”
Deuce Spade: just like Chet
“Why did you put me through. 11 months of "you're so pretty's, " "I miss you's"? It's absurd what even occurred between autumn and spring. If you never loved me. In a perfect world. I wouldn't have met you that night. Would've stayed with my friends. And just danced 'til the morning light”
Tumblr media
Leona Kingscholar: Valentine
“I've rejected affection. For years and years. Now I have it, and damn it. It's kind of weird. He tells me I'm pretty. Don't know how to respond. I tell him that he's pretty too. Can I say that? Don't have a clue”
Ruggie Bucchie: Promise
“It hurts to be something. It's worse to be nothing with you. I've done the math. There's no solution. We'll never last. Why can't I let go of this?”
Jack Howl: lucky for me
“When the sun goes away in the autumn. And the leaves trickle down from the trees. The heat of the summer's forgotten. You'll be here, so lucky for me. You don't tell me to shut up. Even when I talk too much you smile at me. Say, "Don't worry"”
Tumblr media
Azul Ashengrotto: From the start
“Oh, the burning pain. Listening to you harp on 'bout some new soulmate. "She's so perfect, " blah, blah, blah. Oh, how I wish you'll wake up one day. Run to me, confess your love, at least just let me say”
Jade Leech: above the Chinese restaurant
“Street sounds blistered with neon lights. Heard the neighbors snoring every other night. Eating dumplings from next door. Finish 'em up they'd give us some more. Didn't realize we had it all. Even when the roof came caving in that fall. Oh, I loved you more than you know. Covered in the flakes of crystal white snow”
Floyd Leech: dancing with you tonight
“Silly boy, don't talk to me. I don't have the energy. Please don't ask to dance with me tonight. I do better on my own (on my own). I don't mean to come off cold (come off cold). But my dear, I'm all danced out tonight. Now the gin is hitting me. And it's almost half-past three. Am I crazy or seeing things? I'm sorry if I can't go for another swing”
Tumblr media
Kalim Al-Asim: Magnolia
“A word from her lips, her sirens kiss. Will send you straight into abyss. Magnolia, I wish she'd give her secrets away. Enchants everyone and I think it'd be fun. To be like her someday. But I cannot compete with her. Perfection is the only word. I think of when I think of Magnolia. She doesn't know that the world is turning just for her”
Jamil Viper: Street by Street
“Step by step, brick by brick. I'm reclaiming what's mine. This city is way too small. To give away to just one guy. Street by street, breath by breath. From the Back Bay to the sky. I'm taking back my city. I'm Taking back my life. The cafe Where you asked me for my name. The bookstore we spent Five hours hiding from the rain”
Tumblr media
Vil Shoenheit: beautiful stranger
“What if I would've stayed on the train? Dared to stand up and ask for his name. Maybe we would have exchanged a few words. A fairytale moment could have occurred. But my beautiful stranger will have to remain. A stranger until I see him again. See him again. Hmm, mmh.”
Rook Hunt: fragile
“The soft candle glow. The music so slow. Your skin on my skin. The room is spinning. Nerve in my bone. I'm shaking oh no. I'm talking though I shouldn't be. I've lost all sensibility. I've never been so fragile”
Epel Felmier: falling behind
“'Cause the sun's engaged to the sky. And my best friend's found a new guy. I'm only getting older. I've never had a shoulder to cry on. Someone to call mine. Everybody's falling in love and I'm falling behind”
Tumblr media
Idia Shroud:this is how it feels(ft. D4vd)
“This is how it feels. To fall in love with you. To always think of you. To always dream of you. Yes, it hurts so much. To fall in love with you. So if this is how it feels. Tell me if our love is real. There's some type of strange appeal. To the way it was so effortless, uh. I cannot help it”
Tumblr media
Malleus Draconia: Bewitched
“You bewitched me. From the first time that you kissed me. Waited all night. Then we ran down the street in the late London light. The world froze around us, you kissed me good night. You bewitch me. Every damn second you're with me. I try to think straight. But I'm falling so badly, I'm coming apart. You wrote me a note, cast a spell on my heart. And bewitched me. Bewitched”
Lilia Vanrouge: night light
“Cardboard boxes covеring the floor. Guess I won't be living in here anymore. Take down the posters of the pop stars on the wall. Empty room, it looks so small. All of the laughter. All the sleepless nights. Waiting for ever after. Snow falling outside, keeping on the night light”
Silver (Vanrouge): let you break my heart again
“One day, I will stop falling in love with you. Some day, someone will like me like I like you. Until then, I'll drink my coffee, eat my pie. Pretend that we are more than friends. Then of course I'll let you break my heart again. Some day, one day. I will stop falling in love with you. Until I do. I'll be thinking of you. Let you break my heart again”
Sebek Zigvolt: dear soulmate
“Dear soulmate. Do you think of me? 'Cause I do. Do you have green eyes or are they brown like mine? Do you have a sister too? Dear soulmate. One day I'll give this song you. We will drive up to the mountains? Camp in a little tent? When the bears come at night. Will you put up a fight? Or will you hide with me in my flashlight?”
Tumblr media
Ibhana “Vesper” Baske: questions for the universe
“Falling in love feels more like crashing. Stars spin around my head. So I'm asking. Will my worries ever melt away? Mm. Run out of sentences to say. Wish that I could put this into better words. Will I ever fall in love or will I always search?”
Tao Yúchi: second best
“I'll never forget how stupid in love I felt. I'll always regret how I couldn't ever tell. That you walked a little faster, left me behind. Kissed me with somebody else in mind. I loved you so much. That I settled for less. Oh, you were my everything. I was your second best.”
Igor Kazentoc: serendipity
“I won't pretend I've been anxious. Just like I've always been. This time it's sticking. And time just stops ticking. When I have my arms around you. Four-leaf clovers and lucky dimes. Coincidences and cosmic signs. Have proved that I am quite naive. I'm falling fast, filling gravity. And all that I see is serendipity”
Junto Shuisha: everything I know about love
“I wouldn't mind (ahh). I heard that falling fast is so divine. Are these songs just telling plain old lies? 'Cause that's everything I know about love (ooh, ooh). Everything I know about love (ooh, ooh). I don't know that much at all. I trip, I fall. Every time I try, it's all too much. That's everything I know about love”
Jasper Spade: slow down
“I wish it would slow down. Even for a second. I'm so old now. Left my adolescence. Going out to parties. And getting way too drunk. Think I found somebody. But don't think that it's love. I wish it would slow down. Slow down. Mhm, mhm. ”
Aikat Spanos: I’ve never been in love before
“I've never been in love before. I thought my heart was safe. I thought I knew the score. But this is why. It's all too strange and strong. I'm full of foolish song, and out my song must pour. So please forgive this helpless haze I'm in. I've really never been in love before”
Phobes Spanos: what love will do to you
“Lately, I've been in a haze. Running late, can't think straight. The world feels smaller, yet the trees look taller. There's enchantment in the air. I know I sound stupid, I do. That's what love will do to you. Read my favorite book. For the hundredth time. At least I know of how it ends. In real life it just all depends”
Tumblr media
Yes I know I placed valentine for my baby boy Sebek in the last post, but it fits Leona this time ok?

Sparrow padded up to her long-time friend, a rabbit dangling from her jaws. "Mornin', Jattelik." The tom lifted his head, gaze weary. He had been slowing down as of late, and Sparrow had begun to worry.
"Hm." Jattelik wrapped his tail tighter around himself, regarding Sparrow neutrally from his perch upon a rotten log. "Who's your friend?"
"Friend?" Sparrow dropped her catch, glancing around. "What are you talking about?"
Jattelik instantly leapt to his paws, springing to Sparrow's side. "You were followed." Teeth glinting, the tom took a menacing step towards the trees shading his home (a small glade---the hollow log was where he slept each night). Jattelik might be old, but not so old as to be unable to defend himself and his friend from some ill-meaning rogue. "Show yourself!" he hissed to the trees.
After a few moments of hesitation, a brown tom slid through the trees. "Hello." His voice was soft-spoken, a stark contrast to his matted fur and hollow gaze.
"This rabbit belongs to us. If you were even considering stealing it from Sparrow, I'll use your pelt to line my nest," Jattelik snarled.
"Now, Jattelik, we don't know that this cat is a threat to us," Sparrow chided, but Jattelik remained tense.
The stranger sat down, still quite a distance away from the two friends. "I don't want to fight. I was just curious about you." The tom's gaze was on Sparrow. "I've seen you before."
Jattelik grumbled to himself, tearing off one of the rabbit's legs to gnaw on. Sparrow appeared disconcerted. "That right? I don't recognize you." A pause. "The name's Sparrow."
"Otterslip."
Jattelik guffawed, mouth half full. "What kind of a name is that?"
"Don't be rude," Sparrow shoved him.
Otterslip shrugged, unoffended. "It's a clan name."
"Oh." Sparrow exchanged a glance with Jattelik. "I see." Otterslip waited, expectant. With a sigh, she began. "I used to be a part of a group of rogues. We'd banded together after another group, some clan, took over our territory. Chased us off."
A shadow passed over Otterslip's gaze. Scorchstar had said FallenClan's territory was abandoned when she had arrived. This cat must be mistaken, he decided.
"They---my old group---decided to attack the clan. It was a bloody affair. I wanted no part of it, so they threw me out. I lingered in the mountains for a few days, but some of the clan cats found me, chased after me with a vengance." Sparrow shivered. "I guess they assumed I had something to do with the attack. Now I live here. Haven't heard of any clan cats since."
Sparrow left out the part where she had wandered, wounded by FallenClan claws, for days, delirious and starving. Jattelik had found her and nursed her back to health. It had been the start of a long friendship, and now she considered the tom her dearest companion.
"If you had nothing to do with the attack, I have no grievances with you." Otterslip turned to pad off but halted after a few steps. "Do you know a cat named Lee? Was he in your... group?"
"Lee? No." Sparrow chuckled. "Lee's a sweetheart. Haven't seen him much lately, though."
"You know anything about that?" Jattelik cut in, gaze narrowing sharply. If this "Otterslip" was asking about Lee, maybe he had done something to the kindly old tom.
"No." Otterslip's tone was flat, leaving no room for arguement. Just as quickly as he came, he vanished, disappearing into the forest.
"How odd," Sparrow remarked, settling beside Jattelik to finish off the rabbit. Jattelik didn't reply, unnerved. He didn't like the idea of some so-called clan cat from the mountains lurking about.
"Why don't you spend a few nights here? I've got plenty of room in my den."
"Your log, you mean?" Sparrow laughed, shaking her head. Her amusement faded when she noticed Jattelik's dark expression. "All right. If it'll make you feel better."
"It will."
-🐉
AUGHH THIS IS SO GOOD!!!!!! im feeling emotions about the outsiders now,, i love how everyone perceives Otterslip as just some Weird Gross Guy <3
he followed Sparrow and she didn't even realize... do you think he was using the silent stalking technique

prompt — found love tapes
pairing — jimmy x johnny
season — season five
warnings — not proof read, rushed, sleep deprived writer, random bullshit I popped up with, slight angst
Tumblr media
Robby grunted as he placed another heavy carton box on the floor, sneezing when dust brushed his nose, he was in his dad's apartment, helping do some spring cleaning, so from the morning to four in the afternoon, Johnny and Robby have been throwing away some of Johnny's old 80s stuff.
"you know, from how much trash you have, you look like a hoarder" he commented yelling to his dad who was out in the kitchen taking the bad meat out of the freezer.
"the fuck is a hoarder? Just move boxes! If their tapes leave those alone" yelled back at Robby, mumbling about 'kids these days making up shit'
Robby rolled his eyes at his dad and peaked into the box, it had old looking posters, baby shoes, DVDs of old movies, and VHS tapes.
The tape peaked his interest, he picked one up and looked at it, blowing air on it to get rid of the dust, 'Anyone else but you— if you feel lonely watch this' read the tape with the white sticker in the middle.
"what the-" Robby whispered before looking for a VHS player, and luck was on his side cause he found one, her placed the items on the side and moved the rest of the box to a pile.
"what is this? Why does Dad have it" he whispered, was it like something his dad did for some girl? Write a love song and record himself but never gave it to her because he was a wuss? Probably.
Maybe the guys would like to see it, have something to tease his sd with, Robby reached for his phone in his back pocket, going to his contacts and called Sam.
"Hey, Robby what's up?"
"Sam! Hey so uh where are you right now and who is with you" Robby started as he stood up and went to his closet grabbing his backpack and placing the vhs player and tape inside.
"Uhm just me Tory, Miguel—you know the usual friend group? Why? Is everything fine with you and your dad?" Sam asked with a concern tone.
"yeah everything's fine, just Uhm doing spring cleaning in the apartment, hey so imma pass by I found something" Robby said as he placed the phone between his shoulder and ear as he grabbed his beaten up converse.
"what'd you fine?" Asked Sam intrigued.
"tapes, but this one seems interesting it was like hidden under bunch of random stuff and it looks really like well played, anyways imma pass by soon, meet you ina bit!"
"okay bye-"
Robby hunged up and finished tiring his shoe before grabbing his skateboard, "hey so I'm going to hang out with the group for a bit, I'll be back soon" he said walking into the living room, seeing his dad placing the new groceries into the fridge.
"eh alright, be careful, you need a ride?" Johnny asked looking at his son, but Robby shook his head holding up his skateboard, "nah got this, bye be back in a bit!" He said and walked out the apartment.
It took him some time to reach the larusso houses but when he made it, before he could even knock on the door Anthony opened the door, "she's in the living room with the others" he informed before disappearing somewhere.
"Robby!Sam said you found something about sensei" Miguel said waving at Robby from the couch, "yeah I found like this tape, look" the blonde digged in his school bag and took the tape out, tossing it to Miguel.
The boy caught it and stared at it, turning it around and thumb grazing the fading tape, "super old" chuckled Eli, "you got a VHS player?" Demetri asked looking at Sam, "done worry brought that too" Robby said as he placed his backpack down and slowly took the dusty player out.
"dude isn't that shit heavy?" Questioned Eli.
"yeah it was but hey, I'm really interested what that tape has, like it's a love song! It has to be because 'if you feel lonely watch this?' come on my dad must of wrote it! Aren't your curious too? We now her little of my dad's life other than the fact he was a bully" Robby explained, he felt like a kid in Christmas.
"I'm curious, sensei Lawrence doesn't seem a romantic" Tory smirked as she grabbed the tape from Miguel's hand, "kinda cute and dorky, for Sensei Lawrence" Devon said looking at the tape.
"alright, intrest is peaked, let me help" Demetri got off the couch and helped Robby set up the vhs player into the flat screen tv, "what if it's someone singing to sensei Lawrence?" She asked tilting her head.
"like anyone would serneat my dad, I don't think he would like it...okay! We got it!" Robby high fives Demetri and they quickly went to the couch, watching as the tape rolled and popped a boy with fluffy brown hair, holding a guitar on his lap.
"Uhm hey Johnny or future Johnny, uh, it's Jimmy, of course, I Uhm wanted to make this tape because maybe one day, when we grow, up our life's will be different, and we will separate, so I'm making this as a way you can remember me if that ever happens or if you just miss me that much."
The boy, or Jimmy's chuckled softly, their voice was sweet with care and honey, eyes looked into the camera with love and adoration, even if that specific Johnny wasn't there.
"who's he?" Whispered Tory towards Robby, the blonde boy squinted, inspecting the other boys on screen who tuned the guitar a bit, "uh seems like a friend of my dads" Robby whispered back.
"right, so I hope you listen to this it's our song" Jimmy quirked a smile before his hands started to strum on the guitar, humming into the melody.
"You're a part time lover and a full time friend
The monkey on your back is the latest trend
I don't see what anyone can see
In anyone else but you"
Jimmy sang softly looking into the camera before back down, fingers making the soft melody on the guitar.
"I kiss you on the brain in the shadow of the train
I kiss you all starry eyed, my body's swinging from side to side
I don't see what anyone can see
In anyone else but you"
Robby and his friends stared in awe, so Tory was right, His dad was getting serenaded to, and from a boy who looked really enamored with Johnny, the same the boys lips would quirk into a grin when he sang the lyrics, and the soft pink flush appeared in the boys cheek.
"this is...really sweet" Robby whispered staring at the video in awe, his chest felt warmth with the love that radiated from the screen.
"Here is the church and here is the steeple
We sure are cute for two ugly people
I don't see what anyone can see
In anyone else but you"
Jimmy smiled shoulders chuckled for him, pearl white showed, he sang with love, with feeling, even if it was to a hot headed stubborn blonde boy.
"The pebbles forgive me, the trees forgive me
So why can't you forgive me?
I don't see what anyone can see
In anyone else but you"
"I will find my niche in your car
With my MP3, DVD, rumple-packed guitar
I don't see what anyone can see
In anyone else but you"
He hummed the rhythm, nodding his head with it, Robby stared, lips quivered, this touched his heart, it somehow did, and he was glad, he liked knowing someone loved his dad, from what he's heard and seen, not many liked his dad, it's nice seeing someone that looked like he adored his dad.
"duh-d-duh-duh-duh"
"duh-duh-duh-duh"
"Up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B A start
Just because we use cheats doesn't mean we're not smart
I don't see what anyone can see
In anyone else but you"
"the guys sings pretty" Miguel whispered smiling at the tape, everyone nodded with a hum, they watched how the boy felt more comfortable with the song, full on smile appeared into his face and the soft pink flush went to his whole face.
"You are always trying to keep it real
I'm in love with how you feel
I don't see what anyone can see
In anyone else but you
We both have shiny happy fits of rage
You want more fans, I want more stage
I don't see what anyone can see
In anyone else but you"
Jimmy looked into the camera, brown eyes stared at it with love and adortion, as if Johnny was sitting there reacting to the song.
"Don Quixote was a steel driving man
My name is Jimmy, I'm your biggest fan
I don't see what anyone can see
In anyone else but you"
Jimmy paused a bitz stopped his strumming before he smiled, a full loving smile and started to strum again, honey voice sang with love.
"Squinched up your face and did a dance
You shook a little turd out of the bottom of your pants
I don't see what anyone can see
In anyone else but you
But you"
Jimmy ended the song with a sigh and soft tap on the guitar, "I love you Johnny Lawrence... remember that" he said softly before he looked up with a smile, in view came in Johnny cupping Jimmy's face.
"I like that song... especially when you sing it" Johnny said with a giggle and lead down to press a kiss into Jimmy's lips.
"well now you got this tape for you and forever, say bye" Jimmy chuckled moving his guitar to the side of the bed, and pulled Johnny by his waist and looked up at him like a puppy looking up at his owner, blue eyes looked at the camera, and a smile spread across the flushed pink face.
"bye future me! Hopefully I'm married to this hunk of a man!" Laughed Johnny before Jimmy stood up, and shuffled to the camera, and Johnny stopped the recording and the tape turned off with a faded laugh and squeak.
Robby stared at the black screen, tears softly rolled down his cheek, why happened, why didn't his dad stay with Jimmy? Why did his dad have to suffer? This was new to him.
"that was very sweet" sniffed Eli, Robby turned seeing how everyone was sniffing or looking away with a bit of disappoinment.
"yeah..." Robby whispered, still staring at the black screen, hoping for something else to pop up.
Maybe in a other universe, his dad was happy with Jimmy, had a family, had a happy life, a perfect one, with Robby in it.
Maybe in another universe.

Maya & Carina - 🏕️ 🤕🌷 please
Maya & Carina, ⛺️ 🌷 🤕
Maya is strong. Strong enough to carry someone for quite some distance. But she's also realistic. She knows that carrying Carina would slow her down, a lot, and that they'd never make it back before nightfall. They'd might get halfway, but that would be anything but an advantage.
Their last hour of daylight is way too precious.
"You can make it though," Carina suggests, while biting through the pain. She leans forward to re-adjust the improvised brace around her ankle, careful to avoid the broken bone. They lost a lot of time after her fall, needing to take care of her injury first, but Carina is convinced that Maya can still finish the last part of the trek, especially if she'd take a run for it. "You can reach the parking lot before dark and get help. Or maybe your phone picks up a signal before that?"
Maya shakes her head. "No way," she tells her, a serious and determined look on her face. "I'm not leaving you here. Never."
"But Maya—"
"Carina, no! If we split up and something happens to me as well, we don't stand a chance. Besides, we don't need that risk. We can make it through the night, and then take our time first thing in the morning." Maya takes Carina's hand in her own, giving it an encouraging squeeze. "We'll be okay. Alright?"
Carina just nods. She knows Maya feels responsible. Even guilty maybe. She took Carina out here. Persuaded her it would be a great hike, now that winter was finally over, making the Washington woods accessible again. Accessible and beautiful, with spring breaking through in every possible way.
Not wanting to waste any more time, Maya jumps up.
"We need shelter first. I'll try to build us some kind of tent," she says, already scanning her surroundings. "I can make a fire, too. I think we've got some water left, and we can do one night without food."
"Look at you," Carina grins through gritted teeth, as another wave of pain hits her, "Watching that Bull guy all the time finally pays off."
Not understanding, Maya furrows her brow, but then a sudden snort escapes her - despite their unfortunate situation.
"You mean Bear," she chuckles, remembering the moment when Carina finally agreed to watch the show with her, only to take off in disgust within a few minutes, when Bear Grylls was about to drink his own pee. "And like him or not, but he does know survival. I'm sure you'll send him a thank you note as soon as we're out of here!"
By now, Maya has wandered off a little, still searching around for anything useful. Spring might indeed come with some lovely flowers, but it also means a surplus of buds and fresh, young and most of all tiny leaves. Now why couldn't they have been stranded on some tropical beach, surrounded by giant palm trees?
"This isn't gonna work, is it?" Carina asks, her already existing worry fueled by the now thoughtful expression on Maya's face. Maya turns back to her, alarmed by the tone in Carina's voice.
"Of course it is!" She isn't sure who she's trying to reassure the most, but she has to believe that things will work out. That she can do this. "I- I'm not completely sure how yet. But I'll figure it out. I promise," she goes on, quickly speeding back to her wife. "Hey, look at me. I promise, okay? I know I've been… absent. But I'm here now. And I'm getting us through this. I'll get you through this night."
When she takes Carina in her arms, cautious so she doesn't hurt her even more, Carina looks up at her.
"By building us a roof out of daisies?"
"If I have to," Maya quietly nods, before pressing a kiss to her temple. "I mean, how many would it really take? A thousand? Two maybe?!"
Carina narrows her eyes. "And if that doesn't work?"
"Then I'll cover you," Maya shrugs. "I know it's not much, compared to a roof of daisies, or a bed of roses, or a freaking sheet of tulips, but if it's enough for you—"
"It is," Carina cuts her off. "See, this Bear of yours might be the expert here, and he might very well be right about needing shelter first. But he doesn't have what I have."
Now Maya is the one to frown. "Which is?"
"You, silly!" Carina laughs. "I've got you. And you, my love, are - and will always be - more than enough."

A3 Choose Your Own Adventure
Episode 4
You sit in a surprisingly comfortable silence for a while, watching Omi cook. He doesn't seem to mind you being there at all, in fact he smiles kindly at you when the two of you accidentally make eye contact. However, you notice the slightest frown on his face just for a split second as he turns back to the stove. Maybe he is upset about you being here after all?
"Is there anything I can do to help with dinner?" You ask. Omi turns back around and looks at you for a second before he hesitantly answers your question.
"You could go gather everyone up for dinner, if that's okay with you?" he says. Huh? YOU? Go gather up all these strangers??? Well, maybe they're all just as nice as the people you've met thus far. It shouldn't be too hard.
"Yeah, I think I can manage that. I don't know where anyone is though, is there a good place I should start?"
"I think spring troupe should be finishing up their practice if you wanted to start there. That's where the director should be too."
"Alright, um, can you remind me where the practice room is?"
"Oh, right, of course. Um, the practice room is back out that door you came in through, then take a left through the next door, then it'll be on your left."
"Thanks, I'll get started then." You get up and head to the door, ignoring your worries about meeting all these strangers. Also ignoring the questions you have, such as what is a spring troupe?
Luckily you don't pass by anyone in the halls, but you do see some people in the courtyard. They're a ways away from you so you quickly walk past in hopes that they don't notice you.
You find the practice room easily enough, knocking on the door and pushing it open, apologizing for the intrusion as you do so. When you look into the room you see seven people, Izumi being one of them. A person with red hair smiles at you and it seems they're about to say something before the person beside them, a taller person with green hair, elbows them in the side.
"Oh! Everyone, I forgot to mention, we have a guest for dinner tonight. They were outside in the rain, so I invited them in to warm up!" Izumi explains.
"Classic director." Someone else replies.
"Right, um, Omi told me to start rounding everyone up for dinner." You awkwardly say, looking more towards the floor than anything else.
"Omi said that? Well, I'll help you! I think some of the guys are still out playing in the courtyard, we should get them inside and dried off so they dont catch colds!" Izumi says. Right, those guys in the courtyard. You nod and head back outside.
Izumi rounds up the people in the courtyard while you stand to the side, staying dry out of the rain. After they all head in Izumi asks you where you'd like to check next.

Chapter 10: Cursed - Summer, Year 1
The coop has been built, the chickens have been acquired and summer has finally rolled in Stardew Valley.
Newscaster, on TV: ...There had been reports of an earthquake in some parts of the valley. Be careful, folks. Remember to check your surroundings for anything amiss and contact your local authorities...
Ellie watched the TV while having some breakfast. She was planning out her financial and plot allocations for the season.
Ellie: Maybe it's not time for sprinklers yet...
There was a knock on the door. When Ellie opened it, Shane was outside.
Ellie: Oh, hey there! Good morning.
Shane grunted, he looked angry. He always does.
Shane: Yeah, morning. Marnie asked me to bring this to you.
He set down a small sack of chicken feed.
Ellie: Oh, thank you. You, uh, wanna come in for a cup of coffee?
Shane: No, I have to go to work.
Ellie: Okay, goodluck then.
Shane grunted again.
Shane: Uh, Lewis was at the ranch earlier, by the way. Said to help him spread the word that the earthquake's removed a boulder by the mountains or whatever. Apparently, the train station's back in business now.
Ellie: Oh, cool. I'll check it out then.
Shane: Yeah, have fun.
Shane nodded then left.
Ellie: Sheesh, what's with some of the guys in this place... The railroad, huh? So that's why you can't take the train here.
Ellie finished her breakfast and prepared for the day. She went to Pierre's to buy some seeds then headed to the mountains. From the backwoods route, she saw Lewis, Robin and Demetrius at the foot of the railroad area, with some guys in hi-vis vests.
Hi-Vis Vest Guy: Alright, thanks for your report, Mayor. I really do apologize for this, on behalf of the local division of the Ferngill Republic Department of Infrastructure. It was too risky to move anything since those several earthquakes that put the blockage there in the first place.
Lewis: No worries. I completely understand. Well, since the pathway's open, at least there would be an easier way to access Pelican Town now.
Hi-Vis Vest Guy: Yeah, good news all around. Well, we'll be on our way then. Gotta report this to the office. Thank you for your time, Mayor.
Lewis escorted the hi-vis wearing group toward town.
Ellie approached Robin and Demetrius.
Demetrius: Hello there, Ellie.
Robin: Hi, Ellie. How's it going?
Ellie: I've been good, thank you. Um, what's up with this?
She gestured to the new pathway.
Demetrius: It's the way to the railroad. Last year, well, a few months ago, we had a stronger earthquake over here in the valley which caused a rockslide. Local government couldn't - or wouldn't - do anything about it. Said it was too risky and dangerous to mess with something so near the mountains AND a residential area.
Demetrius shook his head.
Demetrius: What a sad excuse.
Robin: Well... At least the train's accessible again now. Easier to get to the city.
Ellie: So, uh, is it okay to go there now?
Robin: Yup. The crew you saw earlier inspected the place already so, should be good.
Ellie: Ohhhhhh. Alright, thanks guys.
Demetrius: Sure thing. Still, be careful up there, yeah?
Ellie: Yeah, thanks.
Ellie left the couple and proceeded to the pathway. There were wooden stairs leading up to the railroad station.
On her left, there was a public hot spring bathhouse and down the path was the train station. She proceeded to check out the train station first.
It was empty, with signs all around saying that it was 'temporarily closed until further notice'. She sat on one of the benches. After hanging out for a bit, she decided to check out the bathhouse.
It was old and looked unmaintained, but still functional. The hot spring water was natural and looked clean. Ellie guessed it flowed from the mountains.
Ellie: Alright, that's enough adventure for today.
Ellie left the bathhouse and started to walk home, fishing out her phone from her pocket.
Ellie: Maybe I should ask my friends to come over...?
Seb: Could be cool.
Ellie jumped.
Ellie: SEBASTIAN I SWEAR TO GOD.
Seb almost dropped his cigarette, rolling with laughter.
Ellie: Why the hell are you everywhere?! You're like a fungus! Ugh!!!
Seb, wiping his eyes: Oh, my God. Jumpy as ever.
Sebastian stopped to catch his breath.
Seb: Sorry, I'm sorry. I used to go here a lot to smoke but the stupid blockage, y'know? I didn't know you were here, okay? I'm not trying to stalk you or anything.
Ellie: You know, actually, with how frequent my encounters are with you, maybe you ARE trying to stalk me.
Seb: Hey, now. I may be a weirdo and total recluse but I ain't no stalker. I'm a decent person, alright? You don't have to worry about me.
Ellie stared at Sebastian, squinting. Sebastian looked at her, an amused smile on his lips. He started to lift his cigarette to his lips, then stopped himself.
Seb: Uh, sorry about the smell. I just lit this, though.
Ellie: Nah, it's fine. I'm headed home anyway. Enjoy your 'me time', Sir Shocker.
Ellie turned to leave. Sebastian flicked off the ash from his cigarette.
Seb: Um, wait a sec.
Ellie: Huh?
Seb: Do you, uh, know Solarion Chronicles?
Ellie: The book?
Seb: Yeah. The game, too?
Ellie: Uh, not sure about the game. But I think I picked up the book before.
Seb: I see... Wanna check it out sometime? Sam and I play it a lot.
Ellie: Oh. Sure, I guess.
Seb: Alright.
Ellie: Alright.
Ellie turned to leave again.
Seb: You should definitely invite your city friends to your farm.
Ellie: Oh my God, Sebastian. Are you ever gonna let me go?
Sebastian blushed.
Seb: Sorry. Sorry, yeah. You should head home. I, uh. Y'know, just voicing my thoughts.
Ellie let out a sigh.
Ellie: Yeah, sorry. I get it. Yeah, I'll invite my city friends over. Maybe we can all hangout sometime.
Seb: Sure, could be cool.
Ellie: Yeah. Alright. Bye, Seb.
Seb: Hah. Bye, Ellie.
+++++
It was early afternoon when Ellie finally got back home. She immediately went to work: tilling the soil, planting the new summer seeds she got, applying fertilizer and watering them.
She spent the rest of the afternoon on her porch: no thoughts in her head, almost falling asleep.
Seb: Hi jumpy.
Elliot jolted awake. No freaking way was Sebastian in her farm at this time. She looked around and realized that she had imagined it.
Seb: Wanna check it out sometime?
Sebastian's voice echoed in her head.
Ellie: Solarion Chronicles, huh?
She looked up the game on her phone. It was a tabletop turn-based RPG.
Ellie: Man, I've never played this before. Seb's gonna be so disappointed. Why did I even agree?
Ellie's thoughts wandered to Sebastian: mean, broody, moody, stoic Sebastian. Maybe he's not so bad when he's happy, though. And so far, he looked like he's been quite happy around Elliot.
Ellie felt her ears get hot.
Oh no.
Ellie: Don't even think about it, man.
Does she have a crush on Sebastian?
Oh no, again.
Ellie shook her head.
Ellie: Shut the hell up, brain. What I need is another cup of coffee.
It was almost sunset when Ellie took her third cup of coffee for the day.
Ellie: Man, this thing's making me jumpy. Maybe I should quit drinking 3 cups a day.
Ellie watched from her porch as the sun set in the horizon. She leaned back on her chair and closed her eyes, taking in the smell of trees and coffee.
Then she heard something in the distance. It sounded like something...hovering?
She looked up. Above her coop, was a figure in black. It looked like a person; like an old woman, maybe? It had it's back turned to Ellie so she couldn't see properly.
She tried to get a bit closer, until the figure turned its head to the side. Then continued to turn it's head around, completely facing Elliot. For a split second, Ellie felt heavy dread in her chest and in her stomach. It felt like time suddenly melted all around them, slowly falling like slime off walls, and then-
Elliot never ran as fast as she did in her entire life. She slammed her door closed, double-locked it and barricaded it with whatever she could grab. She locked all of the windows and the backdoor she had. She turned off the lights and flung herself on her bed. Hiding under the covers.
She tried to close her eyes, but all she could see was the image of that fucked up woman: body turned away from her, head turned toward her, it's eyes with a glow like a rabid animal caught in headlights.
Ellie tried to breathe. Yoba, don't let me die like this, thought Ellie, clutching her blanket. She tried to feel her pockets for her phone. Crap, she left it at the porch. She tried to listen for something - anything - happening outside, but there was only silence.
When she finally thought of going out, she froze in her tracks. The witch bellowed a laugh so eerie it sent shivers down Ellie's spine. That feeling of heavy dread crept in her chest and stomach again. This time a bit more intense.
She tried not to think about it, but the feeling became more and more uncomfortable. Ellie found herself breathless, clutching her chest. She tried to get out of her room, to no avail.
The feeling became more and more unbearable until Elliot couldn't take it anymore and passed out on her bedroom floor.

Jacob could also always eat. His stomach was like a bottomless pit, rarely satisfied by one helping. Unless it was something he didn't like, but the witch wasn't a picky eater. He fully planned to finish whatever Poppy left of the pizza until his supreme reminded him of his newfound responsibilities. Upon Poppy's ascension, Jacob had not envied his friend's position. To be supreme, to lead, was a burden even on its easiest days. There was a weight that came with the responsibility that stole his appetite. He wondered how she handled it but didn't ask. "We are a great team. Always have been!" He thought being highschool lab partners had to count for something. They'd only set the school on fire a couple times. "No worries, Pops.." Jacob didn't bother to argue that the rager hadn't been entirely his doing. He didn't want to think about that night anymore than he had to and held his grief close to chest.
Yet another difficult reminder of the hard consequences of unintentionally harmful actions. He recalled his conversation with the fae, Suresh, on the dock. While all in good fun from their perspective, the coven had won at the cost of other's feelings. He'd tried to apologize on their behalf without success, so Jacob didn't mention it to Poppy. As much as their relationship to the other species mattered to him, Jacob thought they needed to get their affairs (the coven's) in order before they went meddling in other's. Which reminded him to bring up Jasmine and Rohan. As difficult as mending those bridges would be, he saw it as a necessity. The coven was stronger together. Every witch counted. Other names began adding themselves to his mental list; the unaffiliated witches in Lunar Cove.
A gentle shove from Poppy did nothing to even nudge his large frame, but Jacob did begin to pout. "Why? You worried I'll third wheel too hard with you and Atlan?" A joke he made in an attempt to keep the conversation lighthearted. He didn't want to rehash the intricacies of his painful romantic history. Yet he'd find it unavoidable at the utterance of her name. "No one remembers better than I do how bad that relationship was for me." Toxic teenage love. A chapter in his life he couldn't relive. "Maybe." How much he liked those with whom he shared his company wasn't Jake's issue. He always liked them, and that was his problem. "Maybe.. I just have my mind on other things right now. You know? Things that are more important." A future wasn't something he could fathom starting without assurances that it was something he could finish. The horrors from spring still haunted his dreams. While usually a carefree guy Jacob couldn't shake the feeling another shoe would inevitably drop. "Fair," He agreed before promising. "I won't let that part of my life be a problem." Even if that meant holding certain people at arms length, he reminded himself. "So uh, speaking of more important things.. Have you spoken to Jas recently?"

─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
Poppy’s stomach growled at the mention of food, she gave a nod. “I could always eat.” Shrugging at her words as she tried to play off her hunger. Picking up a slice of pizza and she took a small bite of it before letting it sit in her hand while they talked. “I mean that’s understandable given your new position.” Reaching in her desk as she grabbed napkins for her and Jake, she tossed a few his way before putting her pizza down on one. “I like that you’re optimistic though, it’s a good change of pace. I think we are going to make a great team.” Smiling sweetly to him before she leaned back in her chair. “You know as long as you don’t throw anymore ragers. I think we are all still traumatized from the last one.” She attempted to tease even though there was some truth it, now her birthday would never be the same again. 
At the mentions of the games she shifted uncomfortably. The games were exactly why she had a new advisor, while she was sad about losing the advisor she’d had for over a year, Jake seemed like a more fitting pair with her. “We did kick ass, but it was at others expense, which isn’t exactly a great thing.” Looking towards the trophy which was in the hall between her and Jake’s offices. “I’m just thankful we weren’t involved in any of the petty drama. We have been through enough as a coven.” Mostly because of her and her family, but that wasn’t exactly something she wanted to focus on right now. Silas was in the past for now, which is exactly where she hoped he’d stay. 
When he laughed she hit him lightly on the shoulder with the back of her hand. “Don’t laugh. I’m actually interested in your love life okay.” She warned. At the mention of seeing a few people she raised an eyebrow at him. “Is one of those people Cat? I saw her the other day so I know she’s back in town:” Poppy had been front and center for their drama back on the day, she knew first hand that history had a funny okay of repeating. “Jake.” Giving him a knowing look before she got up and walked around to the chair next to him. Putting a hand on his shoulder. “I’m sure plenty of them like you for more than your… generosity. I guess the question is do you like any of them for more than their generosity?” Dropping her hand from his should back to her lap. “It never hurts to have a little fun as long as everyone is consenting. Just please stay away from the other leaders. I can’t take another shit show.” She sighed heavily. Everyone else is on the table tho is that fair?”

Secrets......
Pairing: Loki x plus-size reader
Warnings: self esteem issues, self deprecating behavior, mild swearing,
Summary: Sunday finally arrives....
Part 7-
====================================
Tumblr media
You spent the next few days in a an anxious frenzy. Since the night Loki came to the shop to help you you had sent random texts back and forth. Usually him telling you how much of an oaf his brother was, or how annoying stark was. You couldn't help laugh at how adamant he was. You were finishing work on Saturday when you phone went off again...
Tumblr media
You smiled knowing he wanted to make sure you made it home. "Hey, sorry I couldn't make it in the other night." You heard Sandy as she came in. "Oh no worries, I understand, you actually kinda did me a favor." You said winking at her. She just looked confused and walked back out. You text Mel telling her you would pick up dinner on the way home, grabbed your purse and were out the door.
You walked in the door, bags in hand "mommy! Your home!" You heard Emma yell as she barreled into you. "Hi angel! How was your day?" You asked heading to the kitchen. "Aunt Mel and I went to the park again." She smiled as you put her on the counter. "Oh, did you see anyone?" You asked pulling the food out. "Yes, the man with the metal arm." She smiled "his name is Bucky angel." You laughed "yeah Bucky, and someone else." She said looking down. "Who else?" You asked "I can't member his name, he had long hair and rolled his eyes alot." She laughed.
"His name was Loki Emma." You heard Mel come in as your eyes widened. "Mel, you met Loki?" You asked whipping around. "Yeah, we went to meet Bucky and he was with him." She shrugged going through the food. "W...what did he say?" You asked "Mm not much, just looked kinda irritated, was on his phone alot." She said making you smile. "You....didn't mention me did you?" You asked leaning on the counter. "No, you asked me not to." She said.
"Mommy. The angry man can do magic!" You heard Emma "Oh, what kind of magic?" You asked. "He made sparkles come out of his hand!" She said excitedly. You looked at Mel "it was more like little fireworks." She laughed looking at Emma. "Emma could you go to the living room for a minute while we get dinner on the table?" She nodded as you set her on the floor and she took off. "Mel, you know that guy I told you about that helped me close the shop the other night?" You asked looking at her "Yeah, the one you've been texting nonstop." She laughed. "Yeah him, well....that's Loki." You winced looking at her. "What!" She yelled. "Shh, keep your voice down, I don't want Emma to know." You said looking to the living room.
"Aren't you having coffee with him tomorrow?" She asked. "Yeah, he still wants to, so that's something." You shrugged. "Y/n, I swear.." She almost growled. "Are you going to tell him about Emma?" She asked. "I'm not sure, I think it may be too soon to spring the whole I have a kid thing on him." You sighed. "Well, true.." She nodded. "I'll just see how things go. But if you see them again..." you started "i know, no telling." She smiled.
The next afternoon you were frantically getting ready for your date. Was it a date? Maybe you were reading too much into it, you thought. Deciding on jeans and a dark blouse you headed to the living room. "Is that seriously what your wearing?" You heard Mel ask. "Why, what's wrong with it?" You asked looking down. She walked around you "no...come on." She said dragging you back to your room. You sat on the bed as she dug through your closet "What if it's not a date?" You asked leaning forward on your knees. "How is it not?" She asked, tossing a black skirt and a lilac colored top at you. "Put those on, I'll be right back." She said rushing out the door.
You slipped the skirt on, it hitting just below your knee, and pulled the top on, the sleeves reaching just below your elbows and a bit past your waist. You went to the mirror, seeing the dark purple sequin flowers around your right shoulder. You turned to the side, feeling a bit self conscious about your profile. "Here, put these on." Mel said coming back handing you purple feather earrings. "This is a bit much don't you think?" You asked "Absolutely not! He won't know what hit him." She winked.
She made you sit while she did your makeup, laying your hair flat framing your face. "There, perfect." She smiled. You looked in the mirror again, you had to admit she did amazing. You sighed turning around. "Mel, you've seen him, he could have anyone, literally." You said looking down. "Y/n, You are the kindest, most loving person I know. Maybe he sees that too." She smiled rubbing your shoulders. "Now go, knock em dead." She smiled. You both headed to the living room "mommy! You look pretty!" Emma yelled running at you. You pulled her into a hug "Thank you angel. I'll be back in a bit." You kissed her. "Ok, love you mommy." She smiled "love you the most." You smiled back. You took. Deep breath and left for the coffee shop.
You pulled up, sitting in the car attempting to gather your nerve. You looked into the window, seeing Loki sitting in a booth, wearing his all black suit, fidgeting with something in his hand. Is he nervous? You thought, taking a deep breath "I CAN do this, just be yourself, you'll be fine." You talked yourself up. You got out, straightening your skirt, and headed inside. Your eyes met the instant you went in "Darling, over here." He smiled getting up. "Sorry im late, traffic was a nightmare." You smiled. He grabbed your hand "You look absolutely lovely." He smiled kissing your hand. "Flattery will get you everywhere." You laughed nervously "I hope so." He winked as he motioned towards the booth.
You sat talking for what must have been hours. He told you about his adopted father who you wanted to punch in the face, about his mother, his turbulent relationship with his brother. "So, your a prince then? You and thor?" You asked. "Yes, well Thor is king. Since the destruction of Asgard, our people live in New Asgard, in Norway. We go once every couple of weeks to make sure things are taken care of." He smiled. "Enough of me, tell me about yourself y/n." He looked at you. "Oh, there's not much to tell, when I graduated I went to culinary school, got my degree and worked to open the shop. I lost my mother when I was a teenager, and my father......well let's just say he wasn't fond of me." You looked down.
"Why ever not? Your wonferful." He smiled "well, you see, he.....he wanted a son, and as you can see..." you motioned to yourself "that's not what he got, so.." you shrugged. "That's......terrible." he sighed "eh, it is what it is, I've accepted that's how he is and moved on." You sipped your coffee. "So, y/n, there is something I wanted to ask you of I may?" He said looking down. "O..ok. whats that?" You asked. "Are you, well currently are you..." he sighed looking at you, he really did look nervous. "Are you seeing anyone?" He asked clasping his hands together. You looked at him a minute "umm no, no I'm not." You said not breaking eye contact with him, he seemed relieved. "Well y/n. I was wondering, if you would allow me to court you?" He asked smiling. "What does that mean?" You asked unsure. "Oh, um I believe here you call it dating?" He smiled again.
You stared at him for a minute, processing his question. "You....want to date.....me?" You asked raising your eyebrows. "Well yes of course, that's why I asked." He said still looking at you. You looked down. "Are you sure?" You asked. "y/n, I couldn't be more sure, so...?" He asked looking at you. "Umm, yes. I'd like that very much." You smiled.
You finished your coffee and you both walked outside. "Can I give you a ride back to the tower?" You asked looking up at him. "I don't want to trouble you." He smiled "no trouble, get in." You smiled. You pulled up turning the car off to face him "I had a really nice time Loki." You smiled. "I did as well, I am excited to get to know you better" He smiled back. You looked down, pulling on the hem of your skirt "y/n, may i?" He asked making you look up as he brushed his fingers over your cheek. You saw his eyes dart to your lips then back. You leaned forward, doing the same as he inched closer. "Yes." You breathed as his lips slowly touched yours. Your hand grabbed his wrist as you tilted your head, pressing your lips to his.
You felt him tilt his head the other way as he deepened the kiss. The feeling of his lips slowly moving against yours was electric, his hand moved to the back of your head as you felt his tongue gently run across your bottom lip, you opened your mouth, allowing his tongue to slowly tangle with yours as he held your head in place. You slipped your tongue into his mouth hearing him moan, you decided that was your favorite sound. He slowly pulled back, sucking on your lip as he did. He smiled that beautiful smile again and you couldn't help the blush you were sure was all over your face. "May I come see you at the shop tomorrow?" He asked holding your hand. "Yes. I'd like that." You stared into his eyes. "Let me know when you make it home" he said kissing your hand. "I will." You sighed. He stood outside, waving as you drove off.
You made it home, seeing Mel on the couch. "Hey. Emma tried to wait for you but she passed out. Too much fun at the park. How was your date?" She asked as you plopped in the chair. "It was.....amazing." You said touching your lips, still feeling his on you. "I'm gonna head to bed. I'll see you in the morning." You said getting up. You changed into your pajamas, going straight to bed, curling in the blanket Loki gave you. You text him to let him know you made it safe, and you both said goodnight. You rolled over, inhaling the scent of the blanket, smiling as you dreamt of him.

You adjusted your dress, attempting to not look as unkempt as you felt. Your hair had luckily survived the bus ride to Karl’s, yet your clothing was wrinkled from being smashed against various girls with the same destination in mind. You scoffed to yourself as you leaned against the side of the house, tugging your heel into a more comfortable position as one of the women in the group knocked on the large door.
It felt like there was always some random party blaring out of the windows, so you were surprised to be mixed into an excited group of girls waiting to be invited in by one of the Brothers. The only time when you’d been over to visit Karl and there wasn’t some kind of celebration of a random event was directly before spring break.
A nameless member dressed in a tux answered the door and you bit back a laugh as he welcomed everyone into the foyer. As you scanned the crowd for Karl, you noticed the number of older people lounging about in formal attire. You furrowed your brows slightly, knowing that Todd was probably behind whatever cultist bullshit was about to happen.
You wracked your brain trying to remember if Karl had mentioned anything about the importance tonight, but knowing the two of you, he’d probably begun to tell you only for him to get distracted.
A familiar laugh drew your attention to one corner of the living room where a man who looked dangerously like Karl playfully shrugged out of the grasp of another frat member. His nails were bare and he lacked any piercings, his hair even tamed so it fell just right over his forehead. You couldn’t deny the way your mind ran absolutely feral at the view of him, as if you’d stepped into some strange alternate universe where Karl was actually Carl.
As someone else struck up the conversation in his group, he turned to look over the crowd, chewing on his bottom lip in thought. His eyes brightened as he spotted you in the mix of the group. Whoever had let you into the house handed you and the rest of the people a brochure, something you then realized most of the room was holding.
You snorted slightly as you read, “46th ANNUAL MEMBER AUCTION,” printed boldly across the front page in elegant script. Your stomach twisted slightly at the discovery. You flipped open the pamphlet, seeing a list of numbers and the names of corresponding Brothers.
Karl was 23.
“I didn’t even sign up, honestly,” a voice called in your ear as Karl leaned over your shoulder, peering at the page in your hands. His cologne was more expensive than he usually wore, made obvious by the way it complemented his natural scent with a fuller smell.
You turned slightly, nearly leaning into his warm breath above you as you moved to look at him. “Come on, let them pimp you out,” you joked, your finger underlining one of the details on the back. “It’s for the frat Karl,” you mocked, making him roll his eyes playfully. “You look awfully pretty to not have signed up,” you chided, a small amount of jealousy tugging in your chest.
He ran his tongue across his teeth, his eyes dancing with mischief as he looked down at you. “Do you want me to?”
You shrugged. “You know how loyal I am to this frat. I think it’s only right,” you continued to josh, eliciting a low chuckle from him. The smell of his whiskey hung beautifully on him. You’d be damned not to acknowledge what a catch he was.
He pulled his hand from his pocket and settled it on the small of your back, the two of you mumbling to each other as you headed towards the kitchen so he could pour you a drink. As he explained the process of the auction, your nerves started to change drastically. Luckily, your exterior kept this from Karl because you weren’t even sure yourself why you could be feeling so strongly about the event. “... Really, only the married guys get out of it without being heckled all night. It’s… I don’t know. It’s pretty lame.”
“So basically, it’s an event where the guys objectify themselves in the name of the frat." You jested, your eyes glued on his pinky ring, the only symbol of the Karl you knew. "Have you done this before?”
Karl shook his head. “I wasn’t old enough, thank God.” He leaned against the counter beside you, his back to the circulating groups of people so he was only looking at you. As he slouched, he matched your height.
You reached forward, taking the unbuttoned collar of his white shirt between your finger pads. “I’m trying to decide if I’m scared or aroused by this version of you,” you tittered, wanting so badly to feel his teeth against your skin. He smirked at you. “It’s like Wonderbread you. Like you’d have to sign a contract with me before you gave me a hug,” you teased further, making the smug look on his face twist into a laugh.
He leaned closer to you, his hand brushing to lay against the curve of your hip. “Don’t worry, sweetheart. I can still rip you in half.”
You took a sip of the Brandy in your glass to hide the moan wanting to rip through your throat at the closeness of him. His lips brushed against your skin before pressing a kiss behind your ear subtly. You nudged him away from you reluctantly as Todd strolled into the kitchen, arms raised slightly as if he’d been searching the high heavens for Karl.
He moved to stand between the two of you, reaching for a decanter of a liquid you couldn’t place. Karl crossed his arms and rolled his eyes. “Karl, I have been looking everywhere for you.” He reached into his pocket, pulling out a small pin with Karl’s number on it and nudging it towards him on the counter. “You know, it’s kind of fun that partners can’t bid because-” he paused before wrapping an arm around you and pulling you against his side. You let out a laugh, resting your hand against his chest as Karl’s eyes darkened at the two of you. “-Your lovebug can have me tonight then, huh?” He mocked, smirking.
“Well, technically, I’m not his partner…” you added, pretending to touch Todd flirtatiously.
Todd’s arms pulled you closer. “You know what I mean, Princess.” You snickered, pushing him off of you as he moved to lean against the sink behind you. “Come on, Karl. I’m practically handing you the opportunity to hook up with MILFs, random TAs, and sorority girls,” he begged, making Karl pinch the bridge of his nose.
“That does sound intriguing,” you chimed, making Karl giggle mildly.
Todd’s eyes lit up with a sarcasticness as if you were actually promoting the idea. “You can go instead if you want to, babygirl,” he offered, tilting his head in an action to resemble a car salesman.
You looked to Karl with raised eyebrows and he shook his head in disbelief at the stupidity of whatever banter you and Todd were striking up. “That would be fun! Please, illegally pimp me out instead. I want to be solicited-”
Todd’s hand reached out to clamp over your mouth. “Okay stop.” He straightened his tie and the pin on his lapel in the shape of a number 12. You quietly wondered who were in the top places and what they were doing to be in those spots. “Karl, you’re a legacy dick. Most of those women out there probably hooked up with your family members and are back for more of that sweet sweet Jacobs-”
Karl cut him off gruffly. “-I’ll do it if you don’t finish that sentence and never bring that to my attention again.” Todd pretended to zip his lips before pointing to the pin and walking off. You took the pin in your hands, trying to ignore the shakiness of your fingers as you pinned it onto his jacket. “You know his name is actually Mark, right? He pretended to be a Romney for his first two years here.”
You snorted. “Don’t feed me that information right now.” You wet your lips, feeling his eyes on you as you brushed your hands down his lapels. “You don’t have to do this if you don’t want to… I was just joking.” You chewed the inside of your cheek. “Like, we can leave if you want,” you offered softly.
Karl chuckled, moving his hands up to rest over yours. “Someone’ll pay fifty bucks to take me to some dodgy hotel for ten minutes. It’ll be okay,” he assured. “Maybe I'll have fun, who knows.” He drew you closer once again. You swore you could get drunk off the intoxicating allure of his breath. “I don’t have to if you don’t want me to.”
You furrowed your brows, suddenly worried about having that conversation with him. “If you’re okay with it, I am,” you answered quietly, sending him a small shrug.
He popped a piece of gum in his mouth, shrugging back at you.
Everyone began to gather around the grand piano in one corner of the living room. You could suddenly feel the heat of the massive fireplace against your bare legs as Karl rested an arm against the wall above you, leaning over you slightly. “How much would you bid on me, if you could?” He whispered as Todd explained some rules to the bidders.
You looked up at him reaching up to play with his lot number. You hummed slightly in mock thought. “Maybe a packet of ramen, a Speedway rewards card, and…” you trailed off before digging into your purse and grabbing a handful of quarters, “five dollars in linty coins?” You joked, sending him an innocent smile.
He bit back a laugh. “I feel like you’re the only one that knows my true value,” he quipped sarcastically.
As the auction began to kick off, men were being bought for various currencies, from picnics in the park to gala dates and etcetera. The tension in your shoulders began to cool as there were fewer ambiguous payments. The women and men that paid sums of money were the ones that worried you the most. Karl’s hand slithered up your back until he reached the back of your neck, pressing his fingers into your skin almost possessively.
You focused on the crowd, trying to notice any peering eyes cutting into Karl, but no one seemed to have the slightest clue. Karl’s fingers worked at a knot in your neck, making you want to moan at his touch. You hated being this close to him and unable to mark him as your own. He pulled you closer, pressing his lips to the skin on your shoulder that wasn’t covered by your dress. “Relax,” he whispered, heat raking through your body at the sound of his voice.
Finally, his number came up. Before the auctioneer could finish introducing him, a handful of sorority girls sparked up with heavy numbers in the air. Your eyes widened and you could feel Karl stiffen behind you at their urgency. As their bids began to grow and add zeros, your heart began to beat in your ears.
“$5000.” Your mouth grew dry as the number halted the noise in the room. Bewilderedly, you searched the room until your eyes landed on a woman in her early-50s. You couldn’t help your mouth slightly fall open. “I’d like to bid $5000,” she repeated. You downed the rest of your Brandy, letting the alcohol sting your throat and warm your stomach. As Karl’s turn closed, your mind went blank. What did I expect to happen? You scorned.
After about an hour, the bidding was over. You plastered on a smile after everyone exited the room, standing before Karl and spending the time you had left letting your mind race with emotion. “What’s wrong?” Karl asked, nudging your arm with his elbow.
You swatted him off. “You excited to spend time with your new mommy?” You chided, making him raise his eyebrows. Your voice came out a bit more condescending than you’d intended.
Something dark flitted across his expression. “Definitely.” He pressed closer to your ear again. “I bet she cums on the slow stroke,” he leered, making you inch away from him. He giggled slightly at his own joke, before noticing your quietness. “What?”
“Nothing,” you mumbled, unable to explain just how you were feeling about the situation. It was as if reality had seeped into your bones at what had happened.
Karl ran his fingers against his bottom lip as he looked at you, the skin flushing a deeper red. You’d seen the color too many times to count, but it was usually due to stimulation from you. “Don’t be like that. What’s going on?” You rolled your eyes, crossing your arms softly. This seemed to only further allure him. “If you’re gonna act like a brat, I’ll start treating you like a brat,” he whispered, perking your attention. You let your eyes wander back to the ground. He took your chin in his hand, forcing you to look at him. His calm expression added arousal to your swimming cauldron of feelings.
You pulled out of his grasp. You bit your tongue, grasping at your thoughts and searching for what you wanted to tell him. His grey irises swirled with some kind of worry and what you could only describe as fondness. Instead, you chickened out. “Just use protection, okay?” You faltered.
His features remained quiet as if in thought. In one swift movement, his hand brushed against your jaw, pressing his lips against yours. Your whole body relaxed into his touch, your eyes closing to relish in the feeling of silent loyalty to you. As his tongue brushed against your lips, it was as if he was stating just what you meant to him. If you weren’t in the right mind, you’d moan a gracious pledge of your mutual devotion into his mouth.
He pulled away shortly, leaving you flushed and winded as he reached his thumb up to swipe away the smearing of your lipstick. “I’m in your fuckin’ pocket, remember?” He acquiesced almost emotionlessly, before dropping his hands and letting you stumble. You had to will your body not to grin at what he’d said as the woman who bid on him approached the two of you.
She shook hands with both of you talking about the thrill of the event and how she’s gone for the last couple of years. “Ma’am, he’s a virgin. Please be careful,” you noted as Karl helped her into her coat. Karl’s eyes shot daggers into you, biting back a laugh of his.
The woman giggled with her whole chest. “Oh, darling. That won’t be an issue,” she gasped as she caught her breath. You covered your mouth with your hand to hide your smile as you made eye contact with an ill-looking Karl.
You opted to head back to your apartment, eyeing the clock each time you get an odd feeling in the pit of your stomach. Your roommate had gone out for the night, leaving you to stew in your own thoughts. As two hours passed, you were beginning to feel phantom notifications from your phone, your heart skipping with faltering hope.
As if your prayers had finally been answered, a brief knock at your door sent you jumping over the back of the couch and tugging on a hoodie before you threw open the door. Karl stood leaning against the frame and cracking his knuckles. He eyed you curiously as he noticed your urgency. His shirt was barely buttoned and untucked, hair ruffled and curling here and there. As you let him into your apartment, your mouth grew dry with anticipation. Karl slumped onto your couch, kicking his feet up on your coffee table and raising an eyebrow at you.
You wet your lips, sitting on the arm of a chair near his side of the couch. “How was it?” You asked. “Did you learn anything?”
He scoffed, humor dancing behind his eyes. “You will never guess where I was.” You furrowed your brows at him as if it wasn’t obvious. To this he shook his head, sitting up to lean his elbows on his knees, reaching forward to pull you into the empty spot beside him. “So, that woman owns an art studio downtown and she holds classes for whoever. The nail polish girl in my art class is like the right-hand man to that woman and she caught wind of the auction,” he paused to loosen a few more of his buttons. “The woman has always gone to the auction, but the girl knew I was participating this year and recommended me.”
“Okay, so… You were in an art class all night?” You probed, making him grin smugly at you.
He ran his fingers through his hair. “Not exactly.”
You snorted, leaning into the cushions and turning towards him. “They weren’t drawing you nude were they?” You joked sarcastically, the mental image proving to be almost unthinkable. His eyes shifted to his lap as he chuckled and you punched his arm. “You’re kidding!”
He shook his head, biting back a grin. “I had old dudes staring at my dick for two hours straight and trying to recreate it in charcoal.” You covered your mouth with your hand, waiting for him to reveal that he was joking. “They liked my cheekbones,” he taunted.
You huffed in disbelief. “Oh my fucking God.” Your mind was utterly blank. “So, you didn’t sleep with anyone?”
He smiled at you. “Nope. You’re still my only one.” Your cheeks flushed at this. “That being said, you were so incredibly immature earlier,” he chided, making your eyebrow perk with discontent.
“Excuse me,” you nearly hissed.
His eyes navigated your body. “Jealous little brat, honestly,” he scoffed. “Make it up to me.” You stared at him blankly, as if unable to comprehend his words. He moved his arms to rest on the back of the couch, letting his legs spread a bit further. You watched him intently as his jaw tensed, looking slightly intimidating as he eyed you. His calm expression started you, gears turning behind his eyes. “Did I stutter?” He nipped.
You climbed onto his lap, letting his hands slip beneath your hoodie as he gripped your hips, pulling you down to grind against his leg. Heat spread across your body at the friction, realizing now just how needy you’d been for most of the night. Funny how you didn’t even think of taking care of yourself without Karl there.
He tugged your collar to the side, pressing his lips against the sensitive skin of your neck, his warm breath a stark contrast to the cool temperature of the room. You felt his teeth glide over the valleys of your collarbones as if threatening to mark you as the brat you were. His brat.
His fingers dug into your skin, his knee bouncing slightly as he pushed you to increase your speed. You moaned against his shoulder, reaching the hand that wasn’t planted securely on his arm towards his belt. The clasp was almost second nature for you, considering the various places and positions you’d been in and wrestling with it.
As you slipped your hand into his pants, he groaned, bucking against your touch as if he'd been hungry for you all night. He rested his hand in the crook of your neck, roughly bringing your lips to his own. Instead of kissing you immediately, his lips brushed against yours, the smell of his breath dancing against your skin and forcing you to want him more as your hips moved to make up for the lack of his taste on your tongue.
Your hand gripped him through his boxers, earning a muffled grunt of pleasure from Karl. His eyes threatened to roll as you began to palm him, his breathing deep and needy. Curses hissed through his teeth, the sound further adding to how turned on you were. "Give me your mouth," he moaned, a demand you were more than happy to fulfill as you slipped onto your knees in front of him. Karl's hand gathered your hair as you tugged his boxers down. Your fingers traced the hem of his dress pants that ran against the inside of his thigh before attending to his arousal once again.
Then something clicked into your mind. "I've been thinking about what Todd said," you began, Karl's reaction dulling as you began to pump your hand around his dick. "About me sleeping with him," you continued, your voice dripping with a venomous innocence.
Karl twitched in your hand, his grip on your hair tightening. You moaned slightly as his eyes hardened. "Tread lightly, pet," he nearly growled. The gruffness of his voice sending goosebumps down your back. "You're on thin fucking ice already."
You looked up at him with doe eyes, crowding his lap. "I wonder if he's bigger than you," you commented.
You seemed to find the last straw rather quickly as Karl grabbed your arms, pulling you up and throwing you on the couch beneath him. "Fucking bitch," he snapped, ripping your underpants down your legs. "And here I was about to make this about you," he chuckled darkly, leaning on his knee to slip his jacket off his shoulders and discard his button-up shirt.
He grabbed your thighs, pulling you towards him before he ground his hips against yours roughly, clashing his lips against yours. He tugged on your hair tightly, tongue pressing into your mouth.
His lips left yours, pulling your hoodie over your head and throwing it across the room before digging his teeth into your chest. You moaned at his efforts, basking in the roughness of his actions. Karl pushed himself into you without warning, and without hesitation, he began to snap his hips into yours. Your thighs tightened around his waist, attempting to adjust to his speed before he hooked one of your legs in the crook of his elbow, pushing it towards your chest.
His hand moved to wrap around your neck possessively, his eyes burning into yours with a mix of lust and glimmers of the sadistic side of him that loved to see you tremble beneath his touch as he restricted your breathing, only for you to gasp for air when he allowed. "Fucking brat," he barked, pounding into you faster. "Bring him up again and I'll make your life miserable," he groaned, spitting into your mouth to illustrate his point.
You let him take his anger out on you as you fought not to grin at the pure sparks of pleasure pulsing through your veins at the view of him completely dominating you. Your eyes fluttered shut, teeth sinking into your bottom lip in an attempt not to cum from the intense stimulation, your fingers digging into the softness of the couch beneath you as you searched for something to anchor yourself.
Karl leaned back slightly, dragging a hand through his hair as he slowed his hips, his eyes glued to yours, the new angle driving him deeper into you. The view of him above you like this oddly reminded you of when the two of you went to parties and spent the night grinding against each other in the massive crowds of your peers to an unidentifiable song.
Any idiot could tell Karl could fuck by the way he danced.
Karl pressed his hips firmly against yours, bucking into you relentlessly once again, pulling your hands above your head and holding your wrists in his fist. He kissed you harshly once again, swallowing your attempts to catch your breath and dragging his teeth across your lips again.
You felt unable to control your orgasm as it raced through you, your moans echoing into Karl's mouth as your body tensed. Karl used your orgasm to ride out the rest of his own pleasure, smirking slightly at your disheveled appearance.
As the air settled, the two of you straighten up the living room, making sure to find each article of clothing so your roommate wouldn't comment. Karl sat back down on the couch, reaching an arm out for you. You raised an eyebrow at him hesitantly, with a small smirk playing on your lips.
He huffed jokingly. "Come on, I can't fuck your brains out and not hug you at least for a bit," he joshed, gesturing for you to join him.
You let out a small laugh. The man with multiple piercings, tattoos, and a glare that can insight nightmares, was always the first to ask to cuddle. You tucked into the spot beneath his arm, letting his grasp tighten around you as you wrapped a blanket around the both of you.
His heartbeat thumped against your ear, making you want to slip into a deep sleep. "I think we should set Todd up with Nail Polish Girl," you joked, breaking into the comfortable silence between the two of you. You glanced up at Karl as you said this, hoping to gauge his reaction as you silently apologized for what you'd said earlier in the name of getting him riled up.
He chuckled shortly. "We should probably straighten ourselves out before we meddle in other people's relationships," he mocked. It'd come out as a light-hearted statement, but it tugged heavily at your nerves.
You pushed yourself to sit up and look at him, suddenly anxious. "What do you mean? We're fine, right?"
Karl smirked. "Well yeah, but sooner or later we're going to have to figure out what we're doing." He wet his lips. "I mean, how much longer are we supposed to just mindlessly hook up."
"We're not mindlessly hooking up. We're friends too," you reasoned, your voice uneven as you attempted to inject humor in your statements, hoping to mask your hesitation.
He rolled his eyes slightly. "Yeah, but don't you want more? Like who do you say I am when your friends ask?" He raised his eyebrows, shortly waiting for a response before continuing. "A booty call, right? Am I supposed to be a booty call forever?"
You were taken aback slightly. His tone wasn't provocative, but that didn't stop your heart from racing. "What are you saying?"
He shrugged. "What does it sound like I'm saying?" He sat up a bit more to angle towards you. "I don't mean now, but eventually I'd like this to mean a bit more."
You stood up from the couch, nearly tripping over the coffee table as you reached for a pair of discarded sweatpants and slipped them on. "This is a lot to think about," you mumbled, unable to make eye contact with him. Your mind raced with the different outcomes of what he was talking about. Also, all of them involved the two of you going stale and him finding comfort in other people. "I mean… what we have now is good. Isn't it?"
Karl stood too, raising his hands slightly as if he were consoling a cornered animal. "I didn't mean to freak you out. I thought we were on the same page?" You rubbed the back of your neck nervously, looking for words. "I- uh. I'm sorry." His hands fisted at his sides awkwardly, his sleeves rolled to his elbows. Sirens wailed from outside your windows, the street becoming the only noise in your apartment as he awaited your next move. "I'm actually… gonna head out. I'll uh… I'll text you later," he stated, grabbing his jacket, gauging your reaction.
Your tongue felt like sandpaper as you chewed the inside of your cheek. "No, uh… I think I need some time…" you trailed, your eyes flashing to his. "... To think…"
He nodded slightly, taking one last look at you before slipping out your front door, the lock clicking shut behind him.

An OM! GN! MC fanfiction (OM! Brothers & Now-dateables + Luke)
2.42k words
Genre: flangst probably
Trigger Warning: blood, broken bone, violence (probably) Self depreciation? Still, read at your own discretion.
Tumblr media
A chaotic family. A fight broke out and then... "Snap!"
They were on the way to the Demon Lord's Castle. Being like their usual selves, seven demons of varying personalities is chaotic.
"I'll definitely kill you Mammon if you're not able to get my platinum Seraphim figurine back!"
"Stop fussin' around already! It's just a figurine—"
"Just a figurine?! That's the last limited edition platinum Seraphim figurine released during the final episode of Seraphim of the End! There are only 5 of it ever produced in the whole three realms!" ...extremely chaotic.
"Shut it, you're so so damn loud."
"Loud?! Then let me rip that useless ears off you!" Whilst just a few blocks away from the castle, the purple demon suddenly transformed and spring towards his scummy brother.
"Stop it already. You're making a scene—" Before Satan could finish his sentence, the book he's holding was hit by Mammon's stray hand and flew, knocking Beelzebub's burger off his hands.
"My... Burger..." Losing concentration he lost grip of Belphegor, who is on his back.
On his fall, Belphegor squash Asmodeus to the ground, who then broke a nail.
"My book..."
"My beautiful nails..."
"Mngh... the hell..."
A burger splattered on the floor. A dented book coated with mayo and ketchup. A broken nail. An interrupted sleep.
... Extremely chaotic indeed.
Simultaneously the demon brothers transformed, ready to join the brawl.
"Stop this, you fools!" A riot is the last thing Lucifer wants a few blocks away from Diavolo's abode. Yet, his words falls on deaf ears, causing a set of horns and wings to sprout from him.
And the eldest joins the battle.
Then there's MC, a mere human. "Hey! No fighting guys!!" ...with no one who want to listen to.
"Don't hurt each other!!" Still nothing.
They move closer and took a deep breath, but this time, they're eager to use a bit of force through their pacts. "CUT IT—Aww." yet before they could, they fail miserably. Knocked by whoever the brother is, MC lost their balance.
They twist to hopefully resist their fall. Still, MC's footing failed and instead fall face first.
Snap!
As if a twig cracks, Leviathan and Mammon's attention was drawn to the unsettling sound. And as if on cue— Lucifer, Beelzebub, Satan and Belphegor's eyes followed.
A few feet away from them sits MC, blood profusely dripping off their nose.
MC rose on their feet but in a second, "Ahh..." They glanced on their lower right and lift their arm, as if nothing is bleeding.
Following the human's line of vision, blood suddenly drained from everyone's face. Well, except for the human themself.
"AHHHH!!" A shriek from Mammon and Asmodeus.
"Y/N!?" A shocked yell from Lucifer, Beelzebub and Satan.
"..." And a choked silence from Leviathan and Belphegor.
"...It broke." at the end of their arm limply dangles their forearm from the elbows. MC just looked at it as if nothing's out of place. They then glance to the stiff brothers a few feet away from them. "So, y'all cool down a bit?"
The brothers are anything but cooled down. They are so terrified they couldn't even move on their s spot.
And as if to trigger the demon brothers alot more, they swish their arm a little bit, the dangling forearm swinging like pendulum.
The first one to return to his composure is Lucifer, pulling out a handkerchief to stop the bleeding of Y/N's nose.
Satan followed, removing his blue jacket and sling their right arm around their neck. "I can't find anything hard to support your arm so please make do with this for now... damn, that fucking hardbound book's useless..." He mumbled the last phrase gritting his teeth.
"... Let's head to the Demon Lord's Castle first." Lucifer may looked he is composed outside but inside, he is a total mess. Everytime he loosens the pressure of his hand on their nose, blood will come dripping off with no sign of clotting at all. Just a bit more of ant stimuli and he will certainly be panicking like his brothers.
Noticing it, MC took the handkerchief from Lucifer and hold it in place themself.
Beel on the other hand towers over them and carry them.
"Does it hurt? Am I the one who hit you?" A crying Mammon hovers over them, hesitant of touching a single strand of his human.
"O-Of course it hurts, you idiot! We just broke MC's arms!" Leviathan is also a crying mess, standing beside Mammon.
"Not really. It is throbbing but numb." They reeled their arm once more, alerting everyone.
"DON'T DO THAT!!" They all yelled in sync.
"Hahahahahaha!! Looked at that priceless faces. Are you in a choir?"
"Hey, no fooling around! You're injuries are serious!" Asmodeus snaps.
"What if you worsen it?! You want to lose your arm, huh?!" Belphegor added.
"Why would I listen to any of you?" MC raised an eyebrow.
"Stop being childish and unreasonable. We're just thinking about you."
"Ohoh~? Did I heard it right? Childish and unreasonable? Aren't you describing yourselves awhile ago before injuring me with your bickering?" Condescending laugh. They received an insulting laugh from a mere human, yet no one utter a single word for defense.
Amidst the chaos, three forms appears opposite to their destination. "Hey guys, aren't you going to the Demon Lord's Castle too? What are you doing in the middle of the road?" As Simeon, Luke and Solomon approached the frozen brothers, MC jump off Beel's grasp and went to them.
"MC, what's with that jacket?" Luke held the hem of their shirt with a concerned look.
"It's nothing, just broke my arm. Come on, let's go to Diavolo and leave that matured and reasonable bunch." MC is smiling but the three could hear the spite in their voice.
"Wait—You WHAT?!" The eyes of the three almost bulged out of their skulls in surprise.
"Don't worry, I can't feel it. Let's go before the numbness disappears."
Through Solomon's magic, they manage to stop the bleeding and hold the arm from swinging. The four arrived at the the Demon Lord's Castle safely, leaving the brothers behind.
"MC, what happened?" As soon as he sees their state, Diavolo react fast and guide them to the nearest sofa.
"It was an accident. Is it possible to fix this?" Barbatos entered the room from a door different from what they used. He is carrying with him a first aid. Their guess is either— he left the room as he saw them or, he already predicted this will happen and came prepared. Either way, he didn't questioned them and instead act calm and efficiently as ever. Though when MC look closely, they can see an ever subtle crease between his brows.
Shortly after Barbatos appeared, the seven brothers arrived to the room, silently stayed in the corner.
"Solomon, I believe you have knowledge of healing spells, don't you?" Barbatos asked, wrapping the injured arm carefully yet fast.
"Yes, but it will take a few days to completely heal a torn ligament."
"I also have some speeding-up spells under my sleeves. I think combining it will heal MC's arm by daybreak." After Barbatos patch them up, Luke approach MC, with Simeon a step behind him.
"Are you o–okay? Does it hurt?" Teary-eyed he hold their knee, looking into their eyes.
With their uninjured hand they caress Luke's cheek, wiping the tears off his eyes. "It doesn't hurt at all. I will be alright in no time. A sweet little angel is blessing me after all."
"That's right Luke. Solomon and Barbatos are also forming a spell to return MC's arm to normal."
"Now, listen everyone." Diavolo stood in the middle of the room, calling everyone's attention. "I believe MC and the brothers have something to discuss in private. While Barbatos and Solomon are constructing a spell in the next room, I hope Simeon and Luke to come with me to give them privacy."
"I bet they are the one who caused MC's injuries! I don't want to leave MC alone with them!"
"It'll be okay Luke. They will be careful and won't do it the second time. Am I right, guys?" Simeon spoke calmly to soothe Luke but a hint of distaste still managed to reach the ears of the brothers. "Now come, let's leave them for a while." A reassuring smile from MC to Luke, and a thankful nod from Lucifer, to Diavolo and Simeon are passed before the others left the room.
"MC..." Approaching them, the brothers line up in row a meter away from them, Lucifer speaking in the middle of the line. "We would like to apologize for our... foolishness. Won't you forgive us? We're ready to do anything to earn you again."
"... I'm not really angry with you guys. Just upset and disappointed, with myself. Well, maybe I'm also sad because of you."
"MC..."
"Quarrels are normal with siblings. But it hurts to see you guys on each other's neck, ready to kill each other any moment. I mean, we're family. I should be able to stop you guys from doing something you'll definitely regret later. Yet here I am, a mere weak human who couldn't even do anything about it."
"It was like you guys calling me a family is nothing but a title. That without the pact, I am but a useless design that would crumble at a slight flick. I'm so weak and useless it's so upsetting."
"You're not weak nor useless!!" Mammon yelled.
"Yes I am. Look at this arm that snapped like a flimsy twig." MC slightly raised the arm with broken bone, which is starting to throb in pain. Pain that will definitely cause their tears anytime soon. Yet despite the pain still not surfacing completely, a greater pain within their chest caused tears to fall anyways.
"Look at me MC," Lucifer knelt in front of them, wiping the tears away from their eyes, "You, by any means, are not a weak person."
"Staying by our side after everything that happened, shows that you're a strong person." Satan strokes their head, smiling.
"That's because I really love you all. Because I want to be with you."
"We love you too, MC." Asmodeus also knelt beside Lucifer, taking their hand to his lips for a kiss.
"You're the most precious person to us, MC. We don't want you sad so please smile."
"Y–You know you're the Henry of my life! I vow I won't cause you pain. No–I'll protect you from all the sufferings in this world the best that I can!" Standing behind Lucifer, Leviathan fist-pumped.
"You're the best cuddle partner for me. Get well soon so we can take a nap without any problems." hugged MC from behind, burrying his face on the crook of their neck.
Mammon had enough. "Let go, you pricks! No touching to my human! What if you worsen their injury, huh?!" He especially tried peeling the fifth and seventh born from their intimate touch with MC.
"You're just jealous you couldn't hug them."
"Or kiss their hand." Asmodeus planted another peck onto their palm.
"N–No, of c–course not!" Mammon blushed profusedly while he held his hands over Asmodeus to stop him the third time.
"Pfft—Hahahahahahaha!" Being able to lift the pain off themself and hearing the brothers cheer them up, MC laughed with light heart, also lifting the veil of sadness and guilt from the brothers' chests.
The room was filled with smiles and laugh, fortifying the bonds of the big family they have.
"I'm sorry for interrupting everyone,"
"GWAAAHHHH!!" Leviathan and Mammon screamed in surprise as Barbatos appeared in the room with neither warning nor sound. Not only the purple and whitehead was taken aback. Everyone went stiff for a second except MC who is facing the door directly and saw Barbatos enter.
"The spell is done in the other room. If you may allow me, I would like to take MC."
On the doorway stood Solomon, holding back his laughter from the scene, engraving the comical shocked faces of everyone to the back of his mind.
"You could've knocked before entering you know..." Satan sighed.
"Forgive me for my rudeness, but I would like to bring them as soon a possible." Barbatos slightly bowed with his usual formal smile.
"... I see. Please do." Lucifer held his temple for a second before rising on his feet and giving way to the butler. If he knew, the butler definitely did it intentionally as a payback.
"If you'll excuse me." Barbatos took MC's other hand and in a snap, sling it to his nape, carrying MC in his arms like a princess.
"Oi! Let go! I'll carry them myself!" Mammon yelled at Barbatos' action. "I'm afraid I can't let you do that."
"Yeah, you might drop MC from being too flustered." Asmodeus agreed, squealing at the thrilling sight before him.
"Beel, you carry MC." Belphegor nudged his twin. "Okay, I will."
"No, I don't think that's possible." Diavolo entered the room, interrupting any more attempt of the demon brothers of taking MC. Simeon is with him, while Luke made a beeline to his baking teacher and MC.
"Now that you settled everything with MC, we will now discuss your punishment for the incident."
"...What?" Belphegor and Satan raised an eyebrow from the Crown Prince's statement.
"Yes. Punishment. I entrusted MC in your care thinking you can protect them. Instead you caused them pain. I'll be lying if I said I'm not disappointed."
Although Lucifer thought of the possibility of punishment but to hear the word disappointed from Diavolo's lips, directed at him, his loyal prospect hits him hard.
"...Yes. I understand, Diavolo."
The stunned faces of the brothers, including Lucifer pulled the last string of composure within Solomon, freeing the dam of his loud laughter. Simeon also chuckled with him.
"Okay, let's start. Barbatos, Solomon, proceed to the other room to tend MC's injuries. Simeon will also help with the discussion."
"As you wish, Young Master." "Okay." Barbatos, Solomon and Simeon replied simultaneously.
"Will do. How about you, Luke?"
"I'll go with MC."
"W–Wait! Can't we just settle this without any punishment? MC did say they're fine already. Right, MC?" Mammon held Barbatos halfway to the exit.
"As much as I want that, I can't really oppose Diavolo's decision. And you did dig what you sow, so... Condolence, I guess?"
"You heard her." Diavolo added.
"B–But, BUT—"
"MAMMOOOON..."
"EEK—!"
And thus, the trial begins.
I dunno why I wrote this seriously 😂🤣 I just thought I want to write a comedy fanfic with all the characters but I just noticed my plot is a bit dark to make this a comedy at all. So I made it a fluffy angst instead sksksksk 😆😆✌️
Also posting A Smear of Blood soon after.
