Changes: A Poll-Fic

Ch. 5 Leave the Fingers, No Time to Lose

The fic on AO3

Ch. 1 Ch. 2 Ch. 3 Ch. 4

(Cheeky link to Ch. 6 ->) Ch. 6

"FUCK that hurts!" Soap cursed and clutched his wrist. He couldn't see the severed fingers, and he had no time to search for them. It couldn't be helped, he had to abandon the lost digits. At least it had only been his pinky and ring fingers. If he survived this, big 'if', always a big 'if', he could potentially still serve with a prosthetic. The technology has come a long way, and it was only two fingers. Arguably the least important fingers for shooting, even.

Ahah, heh... mmmhmhm heh.. aheheh....

"Put some bloody pressure on that before you die of blood loss, Soap!" Ghost ordered, as if he would do anything else.

...Blood...

"The fuck you think ah'm doin'?" Soap fumbled with the zip on his medical pouch. At least it was on his left side. He knelt on the floor and used his legs as a workstation. Better than the floor. As he worked on dressing the wound, it dawned on him that Ghost knew he'd been injured. Knew enough to order him to dress the wound, but how? "How'd ye know I was injured?" He couldn't help but ask.

"What're you on about, Johnny? I'm looking right at you." He was, sure. But it was still pitch black. "'S not that dark. And I've been watchin' you since you got the locks off the door upstairs." He continued, as if watching him out of a creepy centipede eye wasn't concerning. He spoke as if he had just been watching Soap through his scope. Like he should be, not chained up like some rabid animal.

"Right," Soap stuffed his glove over the bandaging. Extra pressure couldn't hurt it. "Let's get you outta there."

He approached Ghost and pulled out his pick set. Looking the man over, he found there were seven more locks scattered about his binds.

He'd start by freeing Ghost, and then go back to the muzzle. If anyone came down, hopefully, it was after he'd released the other. After witnessing him choke an enemy to death with his legs, Soap felt confident that Ghost would be able to hold his own while they made their escape.

One by one the locks gave. Each time, just as before, he felt an incessant tickle building behind his eyes. He pushed his NVG's up to rub at them.

For a fleeting moment he not only saw the symbols that he couldn't quite focus on, but also that Ghost had streaks of yellow down his neck. Soap blinked rapidly a few times, trying to keep the yellow shit in focus. The streaks bled out from under his muzzle. They mixed with the blood caked around the collar and... whatever the hell was going on there. That couldn't be good for him.

Soap finally got the last lock off. He was completely blind, which made the sound of the chains sluicing exceedingly loud in the dark, nearly drowning out the seemingly ceaseless giggling.

He pulled down his NVG's again just in time to see Ghost rolling his shoulders and stretching his neck. Each way he tilted his head, the... legs? Pincers? The fuck were they?... on the opposite side seemed to flex and stretch out as well, before tightly gripping the metal collar once more. Soap swallowed the rising bile back down. He supposed he'd need to get the collar off too. "Muzzle and collar now, yeah?"

He stepped forward again, attempting to reach behind Ghost's head for the straps and small padlocks holding both things in place, when Ghost's hand shot up, grasping his wrist tightly. "Don't open till Christmas, Johnny."

AHAHAHAAH AAAHAHAHAHA HAHAHA

...Blood... so much... the bodies...

A present for Johnny... Beautiful Johnny...

He was smiling. He said it in the way he always did when he teased Soap, but the force of his grip was that of a vice. Soap would not be removing those binds. "Ok- okay. Okay..." he tried to play it cool, but feared his shaking voice gave away his unease.

Ghost's thumb and middle finger had been replaced by what Soap was now sure were finger-sized centipede legs. It gave his thumb extra articulation. The legs seemed to have sprouted out from the skin, much as the ones on his throat had. His left hand seemed to be missing completely, his stump of a wrist swathed in nasty bandages. He'd have to wait a while yet before they could be replaced with clean ones. Somehow Soap felt like he wouldn't mind.

Ghost removed his hand from Soap's wrist and gave him a pat on the arm. "Come on Soap, I don't like how off you're acting. Let's get you outta here." Before he moved to the dead bodies and started looting them. Funny, coming from you.

Ghost naturally nicked the knives and a rifle. He stuffed mags into the pockets of his ruined trousers. At least they'd let him keep his clothes, dirty and tattered as they had become, it was still better than being nude.

"Come on then." Ghost led the way, rifle in hand.

Heh... aheheheh eheh..... hmhmhmhmheh...

The giggling followed them out.

"Swear this hallway was longer goin' down..." Soap remarked as they quickly found themselves back at the door to the twisting hallway. He was relieved to step off the stone onto the normal ass concrete of the basement.

Ghost shot him a worried look. "Must've gotten cold." At least he was still making awful jokes. A dick joke at that, Soap's lucky day.

Soap pushed his NVG's up for hopefully the last time. Now that they were back in an area Soap had reliably had reception for comms, he decided he ought to let everyone know the big guy was okay. Well... Up and about, at least... "All units, be advised, I've found Ghost."

He unplugged the headset from the radio so Ghost could hear the responses, but it seemed only Gaz had heard them, as he was the only one to reply. "Mint, how's he holdin' up?"

Ghost leaned in towards Soap's chest, their faces millimeters away from one another. He made eye contact with Soap, with his one good eye.

"I've been chained in a stone tomb for God knows how long, I'm hungry and tired, 'ow the fuck you think I'm doin'?" He paused, grinning at Soap "I've never been better." He spoke with a saccharine voice. The leg in the corner of his eye flexed before digging back into his flesh. A tiny dribble of blood slid down to the muzzle.

Gaz scoffed. "Good to have you back sir. Glad your sense of humor is intact."

Ghost moved back out of Soap's personal space. Soap ignored the bit of himself that had wanted nothing more than to wrap his arms around Ghost, and smothered the bit that wanted to shove him away in disgust. The fuck is wrong with me, it's Ghost. Maybe Ghost was right to be worried about him.

Gaz continued, "I'm nearly done downloading all the research data. Good thing too, patrols seem to be increasing and I haven't heard from Price or Laswell in a while."

Soap clicked on his radio to speak, but Ghost spoke up first. "Let's go grab Gaz before we get outta here then. Well, I've already grabbed him once today, let's grab him again." He joined the giggling a bit as he walked towards the stairs back to the main floor.

"You already... the hand?! That's yours?!" Gaz practically squeaked.

"And the eye. Be a dear and let it out, yeah?"

Gaz went silent, evidently doing as Ghost asked.

The two climbed the stairs in silence, Soap reattached his headset. He didn't want anyone listening in that shouldn't.

HAH! Hahaha heh uuhhahahaha... mhmhm...

Gaz came back through, "Oh real mature, Ghost."

Soap relayed the message. "What'd you do?"

Ghost had a hand on the door handle. He giggled again but didn't elaborate. He held a finger to where his lips would be, and opened the door.

Ghost led them away from where Soap had entered, he seemed to know where he was going. He must, if his hand and other eye had already made this trek. Soap wondered where the eye had been trapped that the hand couldn't get to it.

They found Gaz quickly, they'd only had to dispatch one patrol. He'd been rather close. The room they found him in was filled with disarmed tripwires.

"Holy shit," Soap couldn't help but chuckle, he loved a good booby trap.

"Found a tripwire rigged to a shotgun. Disarmed it. Took the gun."

"Open hearts and minds with it, Johnny."

He knew Ghost did too.

"OOH!" Speaking of his ludicrous Lieutenant, the man had spotted the canisters that Gaz had mentioned earlier. He quickly ran to them and grabbed one. Before either Sergeant could move he had it up high, head tilted back. He was about to crush the glass with his hand, did he intend to drink it?!

[natsumiheart]

Ever since I met you.

…Hello world! Lmao

Hi, I'm Natsumi, and I'm wondering who is even reading this but if you are, welcome to a very long post about how I got into Tears of Themis, how it helped me through such a hard time, and how I ended up falling in love with a certain detective.

I made this post for an event on hoyolab but I’m posting it here too in my trashcan! I already wanted to have a post documenting this online just for myself, even if in the future I cringe while reading it, I can look back and remember the emotions I felt through the year. I also wanted to share it with the world so that maybe people will feel like me, or come to appreciate this character that I love so much as much as I do. (you’re free to reblog btw!)

Warning: This post is mostly about Luke!

It contains spoilers about some Luke cards and some spoilers for his Blossom Chapter. There are small scenes from episodes 2 and 5 of main story as well. Oh, and Artem and Luke 2nd anniversary cards.

If you are here because you’re interested in learning or reading more about Luke and do not care much for the rest, I recommend the interlude, part 6, and The end: part 1. The other parts also talk about Luke and his stories but those are the most important in my opinion.

Due to Tumblr’s 30 image per post limit, this will be divided into 3 parts, each part added with a reblog.

______________________________

Part 1: Introduction

I play Genshin (shocker) and I have some online friends who play it as well, so when Tears of Themis came out globally since it's made by Hoyoverse as well, most people who played genshin went to check it out. I discovered Tears of Themis through those people, and I was recommended the game by my online friends.

What was my response?

“I have no phone storage.” AAHAHAH, yes. I'm not a day one player. I only started during the second anniversary because back when the game came out despite being interested I could not play because I did not have any device that could handle the game. My phone could not handle Genshin's size either, it's not compatible to begin with- I played Genshin on the PlayStation [emoji]

However I did not forget about the game, I was just hoping that somehow one day, a miracle will happen and I will be able to play mobile games like other people LOL but what are the odds of that happening?... Well, a miracle happened 2 years later.

Bonus: I had a little beef at the time with Artem because I kept thinking drawings of him were actually of Jumin who is a very well written character I love like crazy from mystic messenger since 2016 BWAHAHA

Every masterpiece.. has its cheap copy.. IM JKJK PUT THAT KNIFE DOWN AHAHA

______________________________

Part 2: Contact

So one day I was visiting my aunt's house and met my cousin's acquaintance. I met the guy for like.. only 2 hours and during those hours my cousin told him about how I draw digitally but I have been drawing on an 8 year old phone that stays alive for like 30 mins at a time AHHAHA

The guy was like “That's it, I'm getting you an iPad to draw on.” I laughed, thinking he was joking- but then 2 days later I received TWO iPads, one for me and one for my little sister! W t f. Angels do exist on earth? And I was never able to thank him in person because he's a busy guy who only visited my village and I never saw him again o.o

Can you guess what I started doing when I got it? Download a bunch of games I wanted to try throughout the years but couldn't! Among them was Tears of Themis. My house didn't have the best Internet and had a couple hours of electricity a day so I downloaded it very slowly at my aunt's house.

I remember so clearly about how I sat next to my sister as I was downloading the game, and it started playing the second anniversary promotion video since it was starting during that time. At first I was like “aww, they proposing!” but suddenly things turned spicy and I almost dropped the iPad from my hand HAHA.

I did not know what to expect going into this game because I stayed away from spoilers and videos about it since I knew I wanted to get into it myself one day (I was interested in the main story). It made me sad too to be honest because I wanted to play it but couldn't, so I avoided it for years.

I however, did not expect at all that the game would get THAT spicy LMAO my sister noticed my reaction and she was like “What's up?” And I was like “you cannot see this” though she is older than the game’s age rating AHAHHA

______________________________

Part 3: The beginning

I was so excited getting into this game! When I started I was incredibly hooked to the main story, and at the time.. hear this.. I had a bias towards Artem because he looked like Jumin AHAHA

I was honestly more interested though in the main story than the boys, because the boys didn't make me feel much at the time- I do not have a “love at first sight” I never had that kind of experience for real life people or fictional people. (Anyone can experience it, and that's valid! It's just for me personally that never happens.)

After knowing characters and learning more about them, that's when sometimes- I fall in love with them as a character, they end up giving me so much happiness just seeing them, they give me comfort.. And they fill up my sketchbooks HAHA is this love romantic? Usually no, that's very rare!

I did not feel much for Artem (turns out the only thing he and Jumin have in common were their looks and being socially awkward, shocker-) but I had a little interest that led to me pulling for his second anniversary card when I started being able to wish. I lost- and got a standard Artem, but then I won and got his card LMAO you can get a lot of wishes starting off. However I was doing the stories of the standard SRs, along with the main story and someone.. someone was warming up a lot to my heart.

______________________________

Part 4: Falling

The boys were all very interesting and lovely characters! (The NPCs as well!!)

Artem, despite how he comes off at work, is actually just a shy guy who is bad at communication outside of work.

Vyn is actually a very interesting and well written character being very different than the rest of the cast due to his unique upbringing (honestly? His family feels like a cult, bro literally is running from a cult) and you learn more about his own psychology the more you get to know him.

Marius is literally just an artist who wants to chase the life he wants but is hindered by responsibility and his position.

And Luke- Luke stole my heart LOL

First off, he's a detective and I've already confessed online to having a thing for detectives by a drawing- that starting since I was a kid and I watched detective conan🧍‍♀️his introduction chapter.. was very interesting. It was literally the first episode, Rosa clearly knows and cares about this character right off the bat you're like hmm? What was this guy doing for 8 years? Why did he show up now after so long? Almost making him suspicious even. But he and Rosa seemed so close despite it all.

After that Luke had started showing up in the story here and there, a moment that made me go “ohh.. what a cool guy.” Was when after Marius’ case in episode 2, he shows up on a bike like “get in we outta here” and saved her from all the reporters.

His theme plays at this scene.. my heartttt

Revealing he'd been watching her and the case from afar and was literally waiting for her to get out and get her away.

I started reading the standard SRs, the first one I did was “Among the great blue” which honestly I recommend everyone doing again because I bet you all do not remember Luke saying this about Jellyfish

The card made me go *the rock eyebrow raise* GAHAH and at the time I was all innocent, not knowing anything about what Luke was going through, so when Rosa woke up and did not find him sleeping next to her (after she invaded where he's supposed to be sleeping lmao) and Luke was hunched over like “I'm fine I just accidentally swallowed gum lol” I actually believed him 💀 there were signs, but it would fly over a player's head until things are revealed ON THE FIRST FREAKING ACT OF HIS PERSONAL STORY and suddenly everything makes sense. Wow.

When I started personal story, I was just starting it because starting all of them is part of the “Rookie tasks” event you get when you start the game. Only to be punched in the gut immediately.

This is LITERALLY what you’re greeted with when you start his story 💀

I was starting to warm up to this guy and you're telling me.. he's sick and planning to leave us.. omg.

I got to choose one limited SR from the Rookie event, and I thought Luke looked adorable so I picked his card "A star in the palm" and the story.. omg that card, I'm weak. Everyone needs to see it, READ IT!

It’s illegal to be BOTH handsome and adorable smh

After that I started WANTING to do more Luke stories so I did the other standard SRs “Radiant Sunlight”, “Timely Rescue”, “Inner Sanctum”. They were all so good, my favorite being Inner Sanctum for how much it messed with my heart.

Dude is literally falling and he STILL makes sure to protect her.

I- was dying. I started pulling for Luke's anniversary card, starting to regret my choice going for Artem's. But he wouldn't come-

So I went back to main story because that's how you get the most schips, and guess what- I had reached episode 5…

______________________________

Interlude: Luke Pearce’s Fear

The way episode 5 starts, Luke joins the NXX and Rosa is incredibly surprised seeing him there introducing himself as an agent from the NSB. Meanwhile Luke… is mad.

At first he can't believe Artem would even make her do this but she confirms to him that it was her decision, and then he spills the truth about his identity, and about where he's been the past 8 years. He apologizes, for lying, for planning to leave her again, for everything.

And then this happens.

You guys, this scene made me go straight up insane. You can tell how much he had cared and loved her for all these years, and how his biggest fear is literally the main character getting hurt or something happening to her. I felt so emotional over it, that after this act I started DESPERATELY pulling for his card and I finally- finally got it

Episode 5 BTW is one of my favorites in the main story, it is 3 parts because it's THAT good. It's when people will start seeing what Luke is as a character, what's beneath the surface you see in episode 1. (Also this episode introduced the best character: Hugh Moss AHAHH)

The parallel between Rosa, and Jasmine (the reporter whose case you investigate), was not lost on me. That reporter died trying to expose the truth which is exactly what Rosa has been trying to do. I think the entire chapter literally is showing you why Luke is so scared of her continuing the path she's in.

But you know what's the best part? He's freaking terrified, yet he never forces her to leave. He says this:

People keep saying Luke is a red flag that keeps trying to control Rosa and her actions and I swear my reaction is always “Are you even paying attention?” Luke never forces Rosa, he only shows he's against it, but he always says he will support her whatever decision she makes.

A similar more light-hearted situation is the story of his summer card “Iridescent Heartbeat” where Luke is afraid of Rosa getting hurt or doing things that are too much for her so he doesn't consider doing things such as Bungee jumping or rafting. But Rosa insists that she wants to do it and when she's visibly afraid later, Luke teases her a bit (LOL)

but then holds her close to him and soothes her saying there's nothing to be afraid of cause he's there.

He encourages her to do what she wants! And when she does indeed get hurt because the rope was too tight around her leg, he does NOT put the blame on her, but on himself-

Y'ALL HOW IS THIS GUY CONTROLLING??

(The scene after kinda got on my nerves cause Rosa got “angry” that he’s not his usual “cheerful self” like girl I love you but please- can’t you see how much you getting hurt affects him? She pretends that she’s angrier than she actually is making Luke apologize over and over like 💀 but tbh it was also funny, I don’t like how she handled it but it was funny lol)

When they go rafting Luke lets Rosa take the lead and he will follow her because she wanted to prove to him that he doesn't need to plan everything, however Rosa's plan backfires, things go horribly wrong and she can't figure out how to get the raft to go straight. Luke again, does not reprimand her in any way and only helps her so she can do what she wants. Later on even after they've fallen off the raft and onto the water he immediately holds her and takes her up to the surface so worried like “are you okay???” And despite all that, he says she's right. That she's always right and he will stop trying to plan and go more with the flow. 

Luke never tried to control Rosa, he just loves her so much that he does not want to ever see her in pain or sad. He wants her to be the happiest girl in the world.

So who is Luke? Luke is the coolest mf, a guy that always jumps into action to help others with a heart so damn big that his own emotions slowly destroy him. He has felt an astronomical amount of guilt and regret since childhood- and has cared for and loved the main character just as long. The girl who is the reason he was able to keep his sanity, the girl who he always wanted to protect, and the girl who is the reason he is still here today. 

I wholeheartedly believe that without Rosa in his life, Luke would've ended up completely different, if still alive at all.

Bonus: I remember people being like, the characters have gemstones that match their color in the proposal ring, so why does Luke have Ruby instead of something like Topaz? This is why.. the ruby in the ring represents Rosa (getting emotional over here omg) and honestly that ring is freaking insane because not only did he design and make it and its box by himself for years.. but a ruby is inside the key that Rosa gave to him.

Remember how Luke when you click on the key in visit says “I wear it like this to have it as close as possible to my heart” now look at the key.. if the Ruby is Rosa, and Luke’s heart is the key, do you see what he conveyed in that ring? Yea, I’m crying too. 

______________________________

Part 5: Obsession

I have a bit of an obsession problem, I've been obsessed with stories, games, or characters and that obsession can last years of my lifetime. And it's understandable, when you're going through terrible things in your life, you get attached to what makes you feel happy and you hold on to that feeling. That's what starts that obsession.

When I got the second anniversary Artem card I did the story immediately and it was.. it was alright. Artem wants to propose, but in his attempt to keep it all secret distances himself too much and gets Rosa worried, but then wow! He proposes with the help of his coworkers and happy ending + things get a bit spicy at the end. 

But I felt like.. like I'm getting deja vu AHAHA like I've seen this kind of story a million times before. (Probably cause I did from watching a bunch of kdramas and having consumed a bunch of stories from a lot of media) It did not exactly get me to feel anything much, I'm sure it's different for Artem stans though having him propose after probably following his story for 2 years XD good on you guys have fun with your mans! 

For me though who had just started, it did not have that much of an effect. After I got the Luke anniversary card I was excited and went into the story oh so innocently not knowing back then that Luke cards are honestly heart wrenching. 

It led to me crying in bed while the sun was rising from the window as Luke says “That's because I love you.”

The way how he blocks the wind from her and lets it hit him instead at that exact moment is freaking PEAK writing.

That card showed me a lot more about this man who is so shackled by his own emotions and circumstance, that he's willing to sacrifice everything even his own wants and dreams for the one he loves.

Have you guys seen that one official art with Rosa posing as Themis? And the boys are represented by the objects around her? Luke is the sword, Artem is the balance, Vyn is the blindfold, and Marius is the snake by her leg.

It starts to make sense why Luke is holding onto her sword to the point of bleeding, he's bleeding yet he looks up to her in absolute devotion not caring for what happens to him and his eyes are only always on her. He’s willing to be her sword, to take all of the pain and protect her so she can be happy.

My life.. has not been what is considered “normal”. I'm not going to give my backstory in this post aHAHAH but at the time when I started Tears of Themis I was going through a very bad point in my life where I was close to have given up completely on my future and accepted my fate as it is. I had shut down completely, and I went back to becoming a shut-in which is honestly something I went through for four years before, it wasn't good. 

When you reach that point, you start becoming apathetic to everything.

Luke however, somehow started making me start having emotions again. Reading and learning about this character was actually affecting me in a way I have not been affected in a long time. He felt.. real, like I could feel his emotions, his love, his despair.

And that's part of why I got so attached to him and he became my comfort, because of him, I started to feel human again.

AHA CRINGE. OK enough with the sadness.

But I'll never forget how much Luke and Tears of Themis helped me keep a grip during those hard months. I'm in a better place now, it's not good- but it's better, and I still just open this game and visit Luke to help me ground myself.

One time after a bad day I accidentally touched him and he said this, I went insane-

I think that says a lot about the state of my sanity AHAHAH

ONLY TO HURT YOU 5

After the fall from Heaven, Crowley quickly settled into Hell, he immediately understood how things worked. The recurring words were: TEMPTATIONS, CONDEMNED SOULS, UNHAPPINESS and DAMNATION.

He had made his way and stood out among all the other demons, in his own way but he had done it. It was so natural for him to tempt humans, a soft voice near his ear and a snap of his fingers and that was it! Every month many souls entered the files of Hell and even Lord Beelzebub was satisfied with this magnificent work.

Beelzebub: "We are all very pleased with you, demon Crowley. You know, we prefer you as a demon than as an angel."

Crowley: "Mmh thanks."

Beelzebub: "We would like you to pair up..."

Crowley: "No offense Lord Beelzebub, I work alone."

Crowley rarely partnered or teamed up with other demons, he was solitary and so he wanted to stay. He had already met the angel long before, in the Garden of Eden, they had exchanged a few words that day and from there they had not seen each other for a long time. When Crowley had no missions, he often liked to roam Earth in tree glades and smell the wood and flowers. On one of those days, while he was lying on a lawn, his nose was overwhelmed by a strange smell. So he decided to follow that trail up to a kind of farmhouse that seemed abandoned. When he got closer he heard strange noises coming from inside. He looked out of a half-open window to get a better look. What he saw was a naked man lying on a bed while a woman, also naked, stood over him as he continued to move his hips rapidly. Crowley turned away from the window slightly embarrassed, it's true that every demon had their own methods of tempting humans but he would never go that far for a soul. The girl had probably noticed him since the demons could perceive and recognize each other even when they changed the shape of their appearance.

A few minutes later Crowley heard the door of the house creak and saw that woman come out, this time she was dressed, long black boots, tight pants, a red shirt with a black corset cinched at the waist and long rich hair with purple streaks. She is very charming for being a demon.

Crowley: "What kind of demon are you?"

A:"Hello to you too, Crowley."

Crowley: "Well, I'm pleased to note that you know my name but I don't know yours. What should I call you?"

Angie: "Angie, nice. Lord Beelzebub told me about you. The solitary Crowley, excellent tempter and with the highest number of souls sent to hell."

Crowley: "Angie, Angie...wait, but you're the succubus of Hell, the orgy queen on Earth and the biggest cannabis smoker in history."

Angie: "That's right, that's me. You forgot 'hardworking slut'."

Crowley: "Ahah, I would never say that."

Angie: "I am a little bit. What brings you to these parts?"

Crowley: "A very strong smell coming from this place."

Angie: “You were drawn to these then.”

Angie pulled four joints out of her jacket pocket. She handed one to Crowley who sniffed it very intently.

Crowley: "Oh wow, yes, they're definitely making this smell."

Angie: "Do you like it?"

Crowley: "I don't know, I have mixed feelings about it."

Angie: "Do you want to try one with me?"

Crowley: "Mh, okay."

A few hours later they were both lying on some straw laughing and joking like old friends who had known each other for years, even if they had only known each other for a few hours.

Crowley: "Oh wow... this stuff is so strong."

Angie: "And it's the best...ahahaha."

Crowley: "But ahahah...sorry ahahahah...how can you afford all this Cannabis?"

Angie: "Do you remember the guy you saw me fucking before?"

Crowley: "Of course yes."

Angie: "Well... he and I have some sort of agreement... he supplies me with cannabis and I give him the charity of fucking him..."

Crowley: "Charity?! Come on, Angie...ahaha"

Angie: "Ahahaha...What?"

Crowley: "You may be a demon, but even demons have their dignity and you're wasted on someone like him. You deserve better, that's all."

Angie: "But he will soon be a new soul for Hell...and then you know it better than me...demons don't fall in love, we are damned and no one could feel love for us, Crowley."

Crowley: "Yeah, maybe you're right."

Those words remained in Crowley's head for many years, and they were also the reason why when Crowley started spending a lot more time with Aziraphale he didn't want to admit to himself that he was falling in love with him but obviously he couldn't declare it, there was too much in game. Then what everyone knows happened, an angel and a demon had managed to stop the end of the world, they had moved away from Hell and Paradise, they had lived for a few years in a serene and peaceful way, always remaining close to each other, Gabriel showed up naked in the angel's library and finally Aziraphale's stupid decision to return to Heaven and the Big Kiss. Then, obviously, another catastrophe was avoided by a pure miracle, Aziraphale had returned to Earth, he had looked for Crowley to ask him for help, the demon had categorically refused to help him and to make him go away, Crowley had had to use heavy means, including a bit of infernal flames, in which the angel limited himself only to defending himself and then left. Crowley then felt guilty for having attacked his only friend and sought him out in turn, he did not apologize but simply stayed close to him. So with a bit of luck and good friends they managed to make peace between Heaven and Hell, signing a kind of pact between the two factions, signing it as: 'THE GREAT INEFFABLE PACT'. Now everything was quiet, more or less. Crowley couldn't forgive Aziraphale, that abandonment had hurt him more than anything... more than his own fall. Now he needed someone and Angie was the only one who could, somehow, give him some comfort and take the place of the angel.

Butterflies

It was currently wednesday, aka the big day, aka your death sentence if this gets to Beomgyu's ears. Part of you definitely felt guilty from hiding such an important thing from your best friend. Usually you update him on everything that goes on, useless gossip, dumb life choices and news in the romance department. But you also didn't want to tell him all about it, just in case it doesn't go anywhere . Would that be sad and kind of heartbreaking ? Yes, but you must make peace with any outcome possible.

The weather was a perfect summer day, warm sunlight shinning throught the clear sky and into your bedroom window. You smiled to yourself and let out a sigh of relief.

"Today is going to be a good day."

Your phone made itself known, when you got a notification from yeonjun.

Junie <;3: I'm at your door!

You ran downstairs, wondering why he didn'twait in the car. Regardless you didn't intend to leave him outside, so you opened the door.

"Hi, you look really pretty."

You had no clue which part hit you the most, what he said, how he looked or what he was holding.

"I hope you're not allergic, but they made me think of you."

He extended his arm towards you and the scent brought you out of dreamland. You gently grab them.

"Yellow tulips are my favourite, how did you know ?"

"I didn't but I guess given it's meaning it makes sense."

With each word he kept making you blush more and more. It was starting to get harder to look him in the eyes.

"I'll go put them in water, you can sit in the couch while you wait."

You headed into the kitchen, almost speed walking to not leave him waiting for too long. After a minute or two you cameback realising you were still barefoot. Looking around, your mary janes were nowhere to be found. Yeonjun chuckled at your lost state.

"Are you perhaps looking for these ?"

"Oh yeeeeah I left them there, it's easier to put them on while sitted."

"It's okay I can do it for you."

He once again left you speachless, he kneeled infront of you delicately grabbing your foot and placing it in the shoe. And because the heel is quite high he grabbed your hand with one of his when getting the other shoe on. Anything he did was straight out of a fairytale.

"Are you always this sweet to everyone ?"

It came out faster than you thought it, it wasn't supposed to come out. He looked up smirking at you.

"Only to the ones who give me extra cherries."

...

"Stoooop my painting is not that bad."

"Y/n I'm sorry, it's not its just funny ahah."

"You're the on who ruined it, at least I made yours cuter, so you sabotaged me!"

"That's fair but with only 5 minutes between switches? I'ts harder than it looks."

You both kept laughing about the situation, or more like you were laughing because of it and he was smiling because of you. To him you radiated joy, comfort and sweetness. He was sure you didn't know just how addicting your presence was, how you could do so much for him by doing so little as laughing.

"Junie, don't move!"

"Why what's wrong???!!"

"There's a butterfly on your leg, I'm gonna take a picture!!"

Not only you both felt butterflies, you ended up seeing them too.

[benetnvsch]

Hi I'm making a kunikidazai playlist, do you have any kunikidazai song recommendations?

Ps i love your kunikida and dazai dogies!

aaaah wait this is so fun ?? Huge to Me that ur coming to me for knkdz song recs ahh im flattered *stares at u with my big ol eyes*

unfortunately, I have like... No Taste in Songs and all the songs I like which I think 'fit them' are for very specific reasons that Probably Only exist to me but shhh- it'll try my best to share them in a way that makes sense and u can give them a listen if u want or just ignore them ahah :'')

Anyway - here's some songs that have made me think of kunikidazai when listening to but they get more and more obscure/inaccurate (might just be me taking an opportunity to talk about songs I like... whoops)!!

Adding a break cuz it's long ahah

1. Worst Case Scenario- The Hoosiers

This song to me is such a one to the other song, can be either knkd or dz addressing it to the other - both kind of criticizing each other's lives and how they behave but genuinely wishing the other to be better

2. Icarus - Bastille

Similar to the last one, feels like it could easily be a one to the other song but where they're more just aggressively concerned for each other's lives (Dazai w/Kunikida and his ideals and Kunikida with Dazai and his suicidal tendencies and both of them with their self-sacrificing tendencies (knkd and the helicopter and dz in the elevator))

3. Remains- Bastille/Rag n'Bone Man, Skunk Anansie

Another Bastille song,, this one is closer to an actual love song KDJFHKFJh but uhh,, it's a nice lil tune about always loving each other, even after death- even if not getting along always and that kind of just makes me think of knkdz (55 minutes knkdz specifically bc they do die (for a bit) together there)

(Also poet by Bastille is the Kunikida song ever if ur interested in just knkd)

4. Stranger- Covey

had to sneak a covey song in somewhere ahah- feel like this one would be more of a Dazai POV one just Not Feeling good enough for Kunikida's partnership (work, platonic, romantic or otherwise) esp when his past was still kept secret from him

5. New Face- James

This one's strange but here me out... It's Dazai's entrance Exam Kunikida POV coded to me- Been wanting to make an edit with this to the entrance exam stage play for forever

extra lyric,, that is vaguely also kunisaki to me ehehe

6. Cornflower Blue - Flower Face

This whole Song is SO Knkdz to me,, romance but in some strange morbid-is way with foreboding dark undertones and the constant threat of losing the other ahah

7. Garamond - Arm's Length

Garamond feels like another realistic KNKDZ song where it's... Not The Best Relationship but they're trying and are both dedicated to each other but it's still somewhat destructive/self sacrificing so idk??

8. Chateau Lobby #4 (in C for Two Virgins) - Father John Misty

This might be one of my favorite romantic songs of all time and so I just had to find a way to connect it to KNKDZ ahah- but? I like to view it as maybe?? them both trying to find a Normal relationship in another and just experiencing actual like,, healthy romance,, but this I feel?? would kinda be not accurate to canon and represent perhaps more of an idealized version of knkdz </3

but yeah, these two lyrics specifically remind me of them,, the first one would be from kunikida's pov as has always made me think of his plan of waiting till a certain age to date/get married/etc. and the idea that falling in love with Dazai would change how he views that and the second would be from Dazai's pov when they actually get together

Anyway - you probably didn't ask for such a long response and I'm sorry for rambling I just really like music ahah kdhj-

[iamhereinthebg]

Despites mysteryfamau and afterlifecityau do you have any other aus?

Yep I had ones before! And I like to imagine stuff, and aus are super funny for this. I just never finished them x'))

I hope you are ready for a lot of bullshits because it was just ideas I got in like a day or two, and dropped right away :D

Here are a few I created and that I remember :00 Most of them are edgy af without me meaning it too, that's mostly why I never developed them ^^

There was the 80s au, which was basically inspired by every kids movie from this era (the goonies, et etc). Where all the mystery kids were friends and strange stuff were happening in the town. Vibes pretty much like in stranger things and they ended up all dying, each mystery died on a different day (n°1 on monday, n°2 tuesday etc) this was my stupid edgy au I created in like 2 days two years ago but it was funny and I did some drawings for it :D

I had a scifi au with robots based on the three laws of robotics by Isaac Asimov. And all mysteries were robots who had one of those laws changed or gone, so the most dangerous and powerful robots to ever exist. Number 6 didn't have the first one and was only used during a big war, he is put to sleep into a lab now. Number 7 was the most imprevisible of all, he is also the only one who looks exactly as a human, no one knows who created him (two twins brothers who are now long lost in space). Tsuchi is used as a super computer and being able to calculate everything, he was the only one with the law 0 implemanted in his brain (the only one scientists trust)

Number 4 was a robot capable of human creativity and was able to imagine the future of humanity, and the harm it could bring. Number 3 was able to read people's mind and was able to lie to them. Number 2 was capable to change her form between a humanoid robot or a fox robot (and also could shrink and all)And number 1 was a kinda strange case. A boy who was gonna have surgery to survive a heart failure and where someone (*cough* Kako) used him as an experiment, so he had robots parts in him, a part of a positronic brain and he was super pissed about it. And the alive characters were all researchers about those robots, trying to make bonds with them on a little spaceship. The Minamoto were the ones owning number 5, 4 and 6. The Yashiro family just got number 7 at a super big price recently. Number 1 (Akane, he was called number 1 because Kako was the one who created the first robots with the three laws in it) was under the Akane family with number 3 and 2.

I just didn't read enough sci-fi book to make something good with this tbh since I am only reading now the classics ahah (I just read the first book of the robots by Asimov and got inspired the au basically)

I had an idea kinda like ghost hotel au where Nene ends up in a strange forest with an upside down house. She has to get to the ground floor (the last floor here) to get out of here. Of course each mystery had a floor and they all made her go through different trials while talking about different views about deaths and how they were all perceiving it. (basically Nene being in the in between before dying and having a second chance to wake up alive if she goes through all trials).

Hanako was a child struck in a room with a lot and lot of toys and clothes (with infinite bunk beds) not understanding that he killed his brother, Shinigami was making young girls go die into a well to get back his friend, Tsuchigomori made people go lost into a maze of memories which looked like a really strange park for children (I can't remember the name in english, the stuff with ball pool and all) to find his lost student, number 4 made them go through a trial (like an attorney) and explained Mei-chan's life while asking them if she deserved to die, I absolutely can't remember the trial of n°1/2 and 3 lol. Mitsuba had an old toy store and he was a toy in it, and I just remember that number 1 was asking Nene if she was missing anything like an arm or a leg but I don't remember for which reason ahah Most of those stuff were inspired by some of my dreams because I thought it was fun :00

Another one I liked was ghost Nene au :00 It was Aoi, Akane and Lemon, a group of friends from the countryside, not wanting to go to different highschool trying to do special stuff for their last summer together. Lemon is fan of cinema so he decided to participate to a little contest to do a short movie and Akane and Aoi decided to help him. They fell upon a strange thing one night and discover a strange girl with plants and waters coming from her eyes. She knows her name is Nene but she has no memory and has absolutely no idea what being dead means. The others definitely say that it's not something serious. So a group of friends plus a ghost, trying to do a movie in one summer while trying to find a way to make Nene pass away to the other side.

It was stupid, and Lemon absolutely wanted to put a lama in his movie and Akane had to disguise himself as one. That's basically it.

And I had an idea recently but I did nothing with it with the characters having all type of magic according to their personnality. So Palmistry, Numerology, Cartomancy etc.

This answer is litteraly 'Maagi putting all the seven mysteries in absolutely non logical au the post'. I am sure I had more idea but i can remember only those ones for now :00 and once again I have no plan to use that :DD

IT'S OUT! IT'S OUT! IT'S FINALLY OUT! AHAH, FINALLY, IT'S HERE! I'M FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE-

Well, at least from this Chapter; I still have a few more write to wrap things up!

But yet, hello, everyone, and welcome back at long, LONG last to Chapter 25 of Adventures in Parenthood! This one has been a long time coming, and those who've seen my last post will now that it spiralled just the tiniest bit out of control, but that doesn't mean that I wasn't close to finishing it! In fact, as you can see by the fact that I even made this post, the Chapter is finally out!

Now, of course, before we continue with this, I'd like to thank my dear, dear friend @arcanedesigns who was so patient with me for taking such a long time to write this while being so supportive. I'd also like to thank each and every commentator who left their comments while awaiting the release of Chapter 25! You know who you are, and I thank you dearly! The same goes to all of my readers who've been so patient for so long. To all of you I say: Many thanks!

So, this Chapter! It's been known for a long time now that I was working on the Epilogues, and I'm very glad with how this one turned out! Admittedly, I may or may not have went a little overboard, so the Archive couldn't accept the full Chapter in one piece. Instead, what I have opted to do is to split this Epilogue into parts I and I.5, the latter will be releasing two weeks from now to allow everyone to digest the first part, discuss it, and then build up just a touch of anticipation for the following Chapter, ehehe. I hope you stay tuned for Chapter 26 coming very soon~!

Despite the difficulties, I quite enjoyed writing this Chapter, if only because it gave me a lot of new perspectives to try and write from, notably Angela, who's always fun to write because she requires a delicate balance; I don't want to overshadow her sins or downplay her suffering at Ayin's hands, so it's a balancing act that I tried to maintain. In addition, exploring her relationship with Ayin in the context of AiP is quite fun, though it's also a difficult to write a good defrosting ice queen with Angela while making sure the pacing with her development isn't too slow or too quick. I'm curious to see what you think of Angela's scenes here!

The same applies to the sections with Gebura and Malkuth. I've tried my best to keep them as close as possible to Canon while also adding some details here and there that make for quite the interesting dynamics with both Ayin and X, although I don't want to spoil the Chapter further here, hehe.

So that's all I have to say for now, at least here; there are more notes within the Chapter itself. As always, I'm always open for feedback, thoughts, criticism and comments, and I would love to hear what you think of the Chapter!

But until next time, keep Facing the Fears, to Create the Future! See ya'!

iOS Stranger Things Theme

Since it took me a lot to finish my iOS16 theme I wanna share it. I don’t even know if anyone cares but I’ll leave a guide down below on how to make this!

Firstly, Lockscreen and Homescreen:

And this is the animation:

The homescreen changes to the red picture at sunset and to the upside down picture at 11:00 pm.

Every photo I used I took it from Pinterest, except one that I made on PS. I’ll leave the original photos in the guide down here!

.

.

.

The Guide

In order to make this you need the app Color Widget, which it’s completely free.

Let’s unpack this screen by screen.

Lockscreen

Unfortunately you can make this only with iOS16.

1. Open Color widgets

2. Go to widgets, then your Lock Screen widget

3. I’ve made 2 widgets (A-B), these are my settings (the quote from widget B is a Steve Harrington quote lmao)

4. Go to Lockscreen settings, select each section to add the widget you made, these are my settings and my Lockscreen picture

Homescreen

I have 4 different types of widgets: calendar, sunset & sunrise, pictures, and music.

1. Go to color widgets, then your widgets

2. Create a new widget, you can change pictures, select fonts, colors, and types of widget. These are the pictures I used:

3. The music widget can be connected to Apple Music or Spotify, I selected a playlist with stranger things Inspired songs. I created a background that would match the Homescreen (it's blurry on purpose ahah)

Homescreen animation

You can do this in different ways, personally, I created 2 full immersions and set a time to automatically change them throughout the day. The fist one is called "stranger things", has the red background, starts at sunset and ends at 11:00 pm; the second one is called "do not disturb", has the upside down background, starts at 11:00 pm and ends at 8:30 am.

To create a full immersion:

1. Go to settings, then full immersion, then either modify a full immersion that you already have or tap the + on top right to create a new one

2. Select “personalized” then name the full immersion and give it an icon if you want (ex. “stranger things” and bike icon)

4. Change the settings however you like then select the red homescreen as a background for this immersion.

5. Select add automation to set the timer in which you want the homescreen to be changed.

6. Repeat the process for the second homescreen, selecting the Upside Down picture.

These are the three homescreens I used (third one made by me!), I hope this was helpful to someone!

[zkylearnstherope]

Sorry if you had to wait a bit (I was busy, but meh).

Btw, here’s the story you asked me for. Did you think I forgot about this? Ahah, nope.

My dear H, I always keep promises.

I don’t know if this was what you meant by “story”, but this is what I made. (Also my English is bad)

Ignore the words in bold, they aren’t part of the text.

Water

And also today the school finished. Finally. I never felt comfortable among my schoolmates. Nothing against them, obviously. I love my classmates, I respect them, but I am so a bad person, so I never told them how much I care, making them to push me away. Sometimes I feel like oil in a bucket of water. Gonna

I got out of school with my usual emotionless face and my black scarf covering half my face, from the nose to the neck. While walking, I was singing some songs in my mind, to avoid thinking of some sad thoughts. It was a cloudy day, all grey, but the clouds were like a diffuser of light, so it was a bright day. I took the street flanked with new trees. They were young trees, but they were already strong.

I was walking at a slow pace. I didn’t want to get home. I didn’t want to deal with other people. I love my family of course, but sometimes I like to take my time, alone, without doing anything in totally silence.

Suddenly I stopped. It started raining. It was raining. It was a light rain, sure, but it was rain! I always loved rain. Someone on the other street started complaining while I was celebrating internally. I stopped for a second, I lowered the scarf and I looked up, so I could get my face wet with the water. In the air there was already that nice smell of rain and I could hear the raindrops fall on the roofs. I smiled and I closed my eyes. I was just happy. Give

Since no one was around, I started doing some twirls. I didn’t know how to dance, but I would have liked to learn. But without a partner, I think it’s impossible. And no one wants to dance with me, I’m sure. Water doesn’t mix with oil. You

Suddenly, I heard a voice teasing me: “ Oh yes, it’s raining!”

No way. It was D.

He scared me to death.

I immediately froze. I was so ashamed. For how much time did he watch me?

He passed me without even looking at me. In 2two seconds he was in front of me. He didn’t stop walking.

I asked: “Can I walk behind you?”

“No” he answered me without looking at me.

I quickly walked next to him.

After a minute of silence he started talking.

“So, how are you?”

“Not bad, and you?”

“Very very well, as always!” He answered me, with a big smile on his face.

Always positive and confident. And that smile…

We talked about school for 5 minutes, then he asked me:

“What were you doing in the rain before I arrived? Were you dancing?”

I didn’t expect this question.

“Ah, erm… yes, but as you can se I can’t dance at all, eheh…”

“Ah”

We stayed silent until we had to take different directions to get home. I had to go left, he had to go right.

I always liked that place, even if I never understood what is it. It’s like a mini-square, empty, surrounded by two walls and a long hedge. Nothing inside, only some tufts of grass.

He started to talk again.

“Why were you dancing?”

“Because I like rain. B-but don’t think about it so much! As I said, I can’t dance at all!…”

“Ah, and why can’t you dance?”

Why doesn’t he shut up?

“Erm- I don’t know… maybe because I don’t have a dance partner?”

When he heard that, D started walking towards the middle of that mini-square just 7 meters wide, without saying a word. Up

When he arrived, he turned to me and, extending his hand to me, he said: “May I please have this dance?”

No way.

I blushed a lot.

I wanted to scream.

But I didn’t say anything and I took his hand, hesitating.

He instantly dragged me to him and we started 'dancing'.

A simple, slow dance, hugged each other.

It felt like the drops of water in the air were dancing with us.

We were so wet.

But we didn’t want to separate.

Never.

(Easter egg: add every word in bold at the last word of the story.)

Here you go Agent and H.

Every similitude to real places or real people is just a coincidence.

Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3 - [Part 4]

EPILOGUE

Rain makes everything shimmer at night.

Totally not me jumping timelines and telling stories out of order, feeling like the creators of the Bakemonogatari series.

Also, this response is two and a half weeks late, heheh...

This is the Finale for this series, which ran for about 5 weeks. Maskil, if you somehow send another ask, that one will become a new series or just a one-shot. Or I might respond in text format.

I made references to two other posts: Kidnapped and Case No. 758. So, there's the timeline. If you get confused in the future, just see if H has the Limiter or not.

Authors Note

In the last frame, they were supposed to be slow dancing, but it ended up looking like they were crossing the road while Agent was checking the raindrops. So, I just went with the second one.

I tried my best to draw the background (ideally, with a lot of green color), but I just couldn't do it. So, I used an AI-generated image from Canva instead.

I did learn how to do highlights (AvA 6 The Box style), so hurray for that.

I've always wanted to draw Agent using his Shape Tool to cover H from the rain, but I just couldn't figure out the composition. So, I am quite happy with how this one turned out. Even made it my lockscreen wallpaper ✨. Heheh.

I uploaded the full image here: Agent and H in the Night Rain.

You made many valid points about the wags, I think it's important to remember that we probably (can't speak for all of us, can I) don't have the same money as them to buy designed clothes, have surgical procedures (let's be honest, some have) and look after themselves as they do and being stunning is part of their job. With that being said, I hate that some fans are putting them on a pedestal, makes me think they are only interested in drivers and their life and not the sport. I particularly hate reading things like "she is everything, he is just there" like... I am sorry, I drew the line it's ridiculous ATP, it sounds forced, it sounds fake all these fan accounts about ex and current wags is beyond me. And to stay social/political in this way we make rich people even richer and they are basically doing nothing to earn this money while we (or their parents, sounds like a teenager thing calling wags "mother") work our ass off to make 1/10 of their money. Sorry I just needed to talk about this with someone ahahaha

no i 100% agree!!

another important thing, especially from a feminist point of view, is how these women are literally put against each other. the edits we see about current wags and exes and constant comments on their social medias about their boyfriends, their exes, their friends, is ridiculous.

these women are more than their respective s/os, in fact they are their own independent selves who suddenly got thrown into a world where they are glorified without asking for it yet insulted and torn apart for the same reasons.

i have seen certain wags being targets of such amount of scrutiny for 5 second clips, i can only imagine the mental toll that exerts on them. women are always a bigger target of scrutiny, insult and ridicule, comparison and everything in-between than men. they have to be pretty enough for the men, sweet enough, but not too much or people will say they want fame or something.

and then this idolization of these women is equally harmful because they are not role models to have. we know even less about them than about the drivers we like. we know absolutely nothing about them and placing this responsibility to be perfect on their shoulders is ridiculous both for them and for whoever does it.

we are force-fed a ridiculous amount of capitalistic propaganda from this system that it goes almost unnoticed from how obvious it is. most of them are and live in very privileged social statuses and have not done much to earn any sort of fanbase (as in wag fan accs and edits. very superficial.)

we, as women, never quite win. and neither do they. i think acknowledging their existence is fine, calling them pretty is fine, but constantly reinforcing our love for people who are normal and unknown to us is peculiar to say the least. just like micro analyzing everything they do and sending them hate is peculiar. and even more - constantly talking about their relationships.

i can only imagine how odd it would be if i started dating a famous person and, by association, people started idolizing me. women are not a performance or a trophy to be admired simply for existing. they are complex, deep, and have their own personalities outside their relationships. we need to let them have that. while also acknowledging their privilege.

hope this made sense ahah

MIRAGE - The Most Beautiful Mirror in the World 5

Author: Akira

Characters: Yuuta, Shinobu

Translator: Mika Enstars

Proofers: Bella

"Forcing yourself into a box that doesn't suit you hurts your body and mind, you know. …Ugh, talk about a sore topic"

Season: Winter

Location: Yumenosaki Classroom 2-B

The next day. Yumenosaki Academy, Classroom 2-B…

Yuuta: Wow, it really looks great on you, Shinobu-kun! Cuuuute~ ☆

Shinobu: …

Yuuta: Look, I tried to copy your style , but doesn’t it look devastatingly horrible on me? Ahah! Guess the cutesy-kinda stuff is my weak point, huh~ I can’t help but compare to, say, Ra*bits…

Shinobu: …

Yuuta: There we go! Stop looking away! Look at me properly! Me, your mirror!

I've said this plenty of times, but you have a really nice face. It's a shame to hide it just ‘cuz you're shy!

Shinobu: …It’s not really because I’m shy, de gozaru. Now…

Yuuta: Oh, you changed your hairstyle back. But it suited you…

Shinobu: But I don't know if it suited me. I forgot my hand mirror, so you did me a favor and became “my hand mirror” by giving me the same hairstyle, but…

In the end, you and I are completely different, Yuuta-kun. I can't use you as reference.

Yuuta: I see. Guess that makes sense… Seems Aniki and I's way of just looking at each other's identical faces when we need a mirror doesn't apply to other people, huh?

…Actually, you look really down. What's wrong? Bad mood? Or do you not feel well?

Shinobu: No, it's just, I mean…

Regarding your plans, or well, what you told me yesterday… After listening, I can sort of sympathize, de gozaru.

Yuuta: Great, I need a sympathetic friend!

Shinobu: …You want to pretend to be “Aoi Byakuya”, a made-up character, in order to mess around with the producer you're angry at. At least, that's the gist of the prank, de gozaru.

Yuuta: Yup! I wanna give the producer who made fools out of us a taste of his own medicine!

Shinobu: That's not something to say whilst smiling so brightly, de gozaru… But well, if that's what you want to do, Yuuta-kun, then I won't stop you.

I'm not your family nor am I in your unit, so it's not like I have a right to say anything anyways.

Yuuta: Hm? It's not like I'd let my family or unit, a.k.a. Aniki, say anything either, though.

I've had enough of other people telling me what and what not to do.

Shinobu: “Other people”… But as a part of RYUSEITAI, allies of justice, I feel I should stop you from turning to delinquency, de gozaru.

Recently, I feel I'm not worthy of being called that anymore—It's pathetic, really.

Yuuta: Don't force yourself to act like a good kid if you don't want to. RYUSEITAI being some ally of justice or whatever is just some values forced onto you against your will by your seniors and adults anyways. It's stupid.

Forcing yourself into a box that doesn't suit you hurts your body and mind, you know. …Ugh, talk about a sore topic.

Shinobu: Although it is true that taking on dreams that don't suit your stature will only cause you grief, our seniors did not force us to dress up as heroes against our will.

I'll say this much. Yuuta-kun, you're a dear friend and I love you dearly, but don't insult my seniors. I'll get angry.

It makes you no different than those insensitive people who called us fake heroes last summer despite not knowing a single thing about us, de gozaru.

Yuuta: That was Crazy:B, right? I'm surprised how RYUSEITAI was able to keep their cool back then.

All those people you helped so much and swore to protect were basically throwing stones at you guys. Claiming to be a hero of justice is ridiculous and all, but even I couldn't help but hate it.

Shinobu: My seniors were more sad than they were angry. It made them realize that they still have a ways to go before they're who they dreamed to be.

But moving on from that. Right now, I'm not a member of RYUSEITAI, but your friend, and I want to respect your wishes.

And I want to support you, Yuuta-kun.

I'm not lying about this, these are my real feelings, de gozaru. And I just want you to know that.

Yuuta: Okay, then you should lend me a hand, Shinobu-kun.

Shinobu: …

Yuuta: Make a disguise for yourself and join me. Let's go and launch an attack on that producer together.

Let's have you be my Aoi Byakuya's manager! Come up with whatever cool name you like for yourself.

We'll change that hairstyle, and get rid of that forced ninja-esque way of speaking you have and make you into a different person. Let's make ourselves into bad kids that nobody in the world has heard of before!

Shinobu: …

Yuuta: You can say whatever you want. “Oh, you poor thing!” “I'm on your side!” “I want to help you!”

When they're at a safe distance, everyone aaaalways acts all big, pretending to be nice and saying whatever they want.

But I'm done believing those pretty, too-good-to-be-true words. The only words worth listening to are from those willing to get scratched up and dirty alongside me.

Are you ready for that, Shinobu-kun? You’re not, right? You can say we're friends as much as you want, but truthfully, you're in a much prettier position than I am, aren't you?

Shinobu: I (sessha)[1]—

Yuuta: “Sessha”? I won't buy any of that. What about YOU? What about Sengoku Shinobu?

If you're going to act all nice like you're on my side just because “that's what friends do”, then just don't. It's obnoxious.

I won't involve you in this anymore, so you stay out of my business too.

Please. This is for both of our sakes. I don't want to hate you, and I don't want you to hate me.

We're done with this conversation. Just forget about everything I've said and go back to your normal routine, okay? In your own classroom, over with the rest of 2-A.

I know you were worried about me and went out of your way to hurry to my classroom. Knowing that's why you did it makes me happy, and I think it's really admirable of you, too…

But in the end, this has nothing to do with you.

…I spent the whole night regretting all those things I told you.

Shinobu: …

← prev | story directory | next →

Just in case you don't know, Shinobu typically uses the pronoun “sessha” (拙者), which is an archaic and “ninja-like” way to refer to yourself. It’s part of his ninja persona; every so often he’ll use “boku” (ぼく) to refer himself, usually when speaking about something serious.

Shameless

Pairing: Jang Daehyeon x reader;

Summary: You thought you had the upper hand but he proved you wrong;

Content Warning: A little suggestive that’s all;

Author’s Note: I’m so sorry it took this long but after many delays and tries it’s finally out I hope you enjoy :D.

You were a little nervous for tonight, it was a big moment. WEi are having a company dinner and you got to tag along with your boyfriend. It was so cold you had no idea what to wear and you needed advice. So the only logical thing to do was call Daehyeon.

                                          * Facetime on *

Daehyeon: Hey, is everything okay?

Y/N: Well yes and also no??

Daehyeon: Let me guess, you don’t know what to wear?

Y/N: ... you sound like you were expecting this... suspicious I must say.

Daehyeon: You tend to brag about your outfit choices when you make them ahead ahah.

Y/N: And rightfully so! It’s not like you don’t like it:

Daehyeon: No no I love it don’t worry. So you need my help?

Y/N: Yeah I can’t dress for the weather that’s my biggest flaw.

Daehyeon: If it helps I’m wearing a black turtleneck and a suit.

Y/N: Hmmm okay I’ll call you again when I get to your place.

Daehyeon: WAIT I don’t get to see anything beforehand???

Y/N: Absolutely not! Love you!

                                           * Facetime off *

Knowing what he was gonna wear did indeed make it better for you. So the move was a 2 piece set, you’ve been styling it in your head for a couple of weeks now but never actually wore it. Now it was the perfect time, you were sure the dark grey set would match with the one your boyfriend is wearing. You were also certain he would love the sight provided by the skirt part of the set, he’s always very vocal about how much he loves your legs.

You had done your hair already so you quickly got dressed. Looking in the mirror you couldn’t not congratulate yourself for this purchase. The smokey eye look was definetly the right choice but it’s always a “trust the process moment”. 

Putting your favourite boots on you quickly open the texts to send a quick “omw” to Daehyeon, you weren’t late or anything but your outfit was incomplete. You needed a tie to finish it off but you didn’t own one and obviously a house full of guys has to have one hiding somewhere.

You made your way to the nearest subway station with your headphones in, playing your favourite artist. The subway didn’t take long and when it stopped you could see your reflection in the door windows, you lightly chuckled knowing you looked good. The whole way to the dorms you kept thinking how your boyfriend would react if there’s something you love doing is make him speechless.

After a 5 minute ride you were off to their place, giddy, thrilled to say the least. You had never felt like this before maybe all this time apart from each other was giving you butterflies again. Like you were meeting again for the first time. Still walking you pulled your phone out your winter jacket double texting Daehyeon to let you in, there’s no way you’d wait outside for him to open the door. Thankfully he saw it in the moment and opened the door for you. 

The walk up the stairs had your legs weak and you couldn’t tell if it was because you were nervous, out of shape or both. You shook any anxious thoughts out your head and proceeded to make your way to their apartment door. And lucky you someone was already waiting for you. You were still a little far away but from a previous call you could tell who it was given the description of their outfit. The closer you got the better you could see his face and by the end of your journey you could tell someone was drooling indeed. 

You once again chuckled expecting the expression but not being able to take it fully due to shyness.

Y/N: Did the cat get your tongue?

Daehyeon: Dalli is a very good girl we raised her right, she wouldn’t do such thing! But you would...

His words exued lust and playfulness and all of the sudden you were no longer the one laughing. Any time he makes such remarks it leaves you distraut and nervous in a good way. He loves you so much he never hesitates to make it clear.

Y/N: Are you going to let me in or not? I still need to borrow a tie from you.

Daehyeon: A tie? we have places to be no time to play around.

You lightly slapped his arm as a way of shushing him and he gave you that beautiful smile of his. If you weren’t admant on getting the last accessory you’d let yourself melt in his arms. With his hand on your lower back both of you made your way inside and since you still had a little bit of time everyone was in the process of getting ready. You took you shoes and jakcet off leaving it at the entrance and on a mission you were.

Scared someone was in the room you knocked making sure Seokhwa wasn’t dressing himself in the room and after getting no response you opened the door. To your surprise someone was in the room your favourite person in the world, Dalli. She meowed as a little “hello” and you swore you probably missed her more than anyone in this place, she was always your napping partner you never forget those. 

Dismissing your child for a while you searched for the hot issue of today and you did find many of them, black, red even bow ties, however the hard part wasn’t chosing one but actually tying it. But Daehyeon came to the rescue, letting Dalli escape to find someone to play with.

Daehyeon: So do you need me or...?

Y/N: Why do I feel like that can mean 2 very different things?

Approaching you, slowly grabbing the black tie from your hands, he had his eyes on yours.

Daehyeon: I always knew my pretty girl was smart so you tell me.

Y/N: I knew you’d like the clothes but this much? even I’m surprised.

Daehyeon: More than the clothes I like you.

You could’ve sworn someone had turned the heating on, because the mix of his honey laced words and his actions, making the tie tighter and tigher with every single breath was making your legs squeez together. You mentally cursed yourself and this stupid formal dinner because if it was for you’d stay in the comfort of your lover’s touch.

Daehyeon: I see someone flew over to dreamland, do I really have this much affect on you?

Y/N: Don’t ask questions you already know the answer to.

Daehyeon: But what if I want to hear it from you, what if I want to hear my angel say it?

Since he was done with the tie his hands were on your hips squeezing little by little, knowing damn well you were hanging by a thin thread. If there’s someone that knows what buttons to push it’s him. At this point you were ready to give in.

And with your silence he took it upon himself to make you speak or at least moan, lowly. His lips on your neck and your hands on his chest you were both getting lost in the moment so much so you hadn’t been paying attention to the time leaving someone to interrupt this little taste of paradise. A simple knock and you were yelling “JUST A MINUTE”.

Your much loved boyfriend laughed and made eye contact with you once again.

Daehyeon: I’ll leave you to yourself for a few minutes, but I’ll be thinking about you... in the car, during dinner, and every moment inbetween. Can’t wait to have you all by myself by the end of this.

With that he left the room, leaving you shocked and deseperate, craving for more and very excited for what the night had waiting for you.

[iamhereinthebg]

is aoi in your AU? Sorry if someone already asked this

hey Anon! Really sorry for the wait I wanted to do quick doodles to illustrate ahah

Thanks for the question and no problem no one asked me already :DD

I didn't know which au you were talking about so I will talk about her in both aus I have eheh

In mysteryfamau:

She is one of the mysteryfam's neighbor living in a house in the commercial alley. She knows Akane since he went to school the first time as Tsuchi's son (in kindergarten when they were around 5), and they have been friends since then.

Aoi in this au doesn't have the same fears and traumas as in canon since her dad left her mother when she was really young. Her mom has a really cool wife now because she deserves it and Aoi has a lovely family (this au is litteraly just me giving the characters a good life and shenanigans tbh) She loves breakdance, and roller-skate. She adores to annoy Akane, like setting him ridiculous alarms or climbing his walls to wake him up early with the worst ideas ever (Akane often ends up getting her into his blanket and throws her in the stairs, they love each other a lot ♥) She still masks her true personnality but she is more the happy-go-lucky-absolutely-everyone-loves-girl at school rather than how she is in the manga, so still popular and masking a lot but not with the same personnality. She is squatting the mysteryfam's house absolutely everyday and Tsuchi isn't even surprised to see her at any meals of the day. She just goes whenever she wants. Aoi also has been Nene's internet friend since she is 13 and she is so happy her friend ends up in the same town as her. She is an absolute menace, really sweet but can say the worst thing ever with a big smile.

In after life city au

If you want more context for this au I advice cheking out this post (and this one for the info about her family)

Aoi lost her childhood friend who went missing at the age of 12 (Akane) and her best friend Nene who died at the age of 15. She is way more sad and angry than in canon and knows some stuff about her family's traditions. She also knows a little about exorcist stuff and has some powers but she never really used them, she only knows because of her grandpa who taugth her for protection. Once Nene dies, she becomes desesperate and goes deep into all those family stuff and hears that a city where the deads end up exists. Aoi gets ready to go there but doesn't know where the gates are, so she researches more about everything, especially about the Minamotos because she knows their family is more important about the relationship between the two shores. When she hears that the Minamoto's sons are going into the afterlifecity she decides to go with them, 'as protection' she says. She wants to get Nene back from the afterlifecity. Lemon is the only friend she has left and he will decide to go with her because he realizes how much she is drowning in her grief about her two friends. He goes as a lil robot (a kinda drone idk lemme be idiot about this) because he has no special blood and can't go there, and is definitely here as her voice of reason.

Aoi is in the city for her own reasons and will cause some problems to the Lords and also to the Minamotos. She hates Kyo with a burning passion.

And that's all for now :DD thanks a lot for this question Anon it made me happy to talk about her ahah ^^

I adore how the two Aoi are just exact opposite of each other in this post lol

[siennadraws]

5, 10, 14 for the otp asks?

Hi Ronnie! Thanks for sending these!!!

Describe their cozy night in.

Cuddling after sex, Deimos' head laying on Laïs chest, listening to her heartbeat and feeling the vibration on her chest as she hums some poetry stuck in her head. She plays with his hair and they're just there, existing without an outside world.

Describe their first date.

I wouldn't necessarily call anything they had as a first date a date ahah.

Between hunting cultists with Kassandra and doing some work to have some pocket money here and there, they wouldn't find time for something elaborate or planned once they needed some leisure time just for themselves.

They only had the chance to sleep together like, two months or three into the relationship.

Plus, they kept their relationship a secret for even longer.

But I imagine they finished some kind of mission quicker than they thought they would, so they went together to some place with a view, talked about everything and nothing, saw the sunrise, laughed and kissed, and then made their way to the Adrestia holding hands until they reached population.

How do their personalities compliment each other? How do they clash?

Well, first they're both very resolute people, on some level. While Deimos is single-minded because of the abuse of the cult, Laïs is steadfast on beliefs she herself built.

Their completely different worldviews caused some clashing as they got to know each other. But Laïs never really took the bait- she was there to help him get out of the cult, after all.

Laïs was also very detached from people around her, something borne out of her past. That did cause some other rifts.

But after Laïs found strength to truly live inside her life, and after Deimos got out of the cult, Laïs cool-headness and Deimos hot-headedness actually complimented each other quite well. She anchored him, keeping him leveled as he figured out his humanity. And whenever she would feel stuck, he'd be the one to press her on.

Speaking of, on all the days they'd honestly rather stay in bed, sleeping until they rot, the other one would be the reason they would get up, even if both where having a bad day.
