#ooooooo they break my heart so beautifully

[o1iveangel]

“through what mistake did we end up together and inseparable like this?..

will it be a tragic ending, for the two of us who took the road less traveled?..

I carefully capture your image with my eyes..

will you courageously fade away with me?..

break me further into pieces.. i want to be with you in sadness too..

run away from the inevitable..

love wins all.”

Semantic Error by Jeosuri, NSFW: i talk about this nonstop and i think my friends are tired of me talking about it. probably the best enemies to friends to lovers piece i've ever read. the build up to them getting along is paced perfectly in my opinion, the developing of feelings is also great, AND THERE'S A KDRAMA?!? yeah, yeah, read it. yeah please

The Night Beyond the Tricornered Window by Yamashita Tomoko: I never cried so much until I read this manga. like, i was honestly on the FLOOR reading this!! starts off nice and simple before evolving into this giant mess of a thing that shatters your heart. has a cult in it and handles the trauma around it fairly well ( or at least i think so ). the whole topic of trauma is just beautifully written, had me shaking towards the end. i'm still shaking and i finished reading it last week.

Cat Street by Kamio Yoko: written by the woman who made hana yori dango ( boys over flower ) and i promise you!! this is actually good!! LIKE REALLY GOOD!!! deals with a teenager who exiles herself from the entire world after an embarrassing moment that happened as a child. a story about finding yourself, meeting new people, and falling in love with a childhood passion. def my comfort manga.

Jibaku Shounen Hanako-Kun by Aida Iro: i saw a lot of people reading it on youtube and honestly,,, i should've minded my fucking business!! because this damn manga is so sad, like, my heart was breaking while reading it. one of those stories that starts off really cute and sweet before unfolding into this massive plot that has you screaming every chapter.

The Taming of the Shrew by Biai: yes, like Shakespeare's TOTS, follows the same plot but also has its differences. actually really good and Kat is a swordswoman <3 and Petruchio is a major simp. please read it because i loved it so much

Red Candy by Hanse, NSFW: idk what's with me and undercover stories,,,, but i love it. a spy who has to pretend to be his target's boyfriend. really good and there's like so many levels to it. corrupt spy organization, major daddy issues, has me on the floor sobbing. i'm just a softie.

Yubisaki to Renren by Suu Moorishita: MY GOD!!! BEAUTIFUL ART!!!

How to Be a Heartbreaker

Songfic Soulmate idea from the Daminette server, coming from @starry-bi-sky

My inclusion: You can feel when your soulmate sings. The closer you are the more your heart throbs. Singing together creates a beautiful song. Which is why these two decent singers sound like gods.

ENJOY

Marinette was a bit used to being invited to things and then being snubbed. She was part of their rent for the room, however, they decided that there are too many people in the room and Lila had put on a show about how Marinette would absolutely love to leave them so no else had to. Right?

So here she was, sitting at a table in an empty room with an empty stage with a mic in her hand. 

She sighed, puffing her bangs out of her face. There was no fun in singing alone. She had hummed to herself some tunes - and hopefully, some to her soulmate, if she had one -, but she had never chosen a track or actually danced around on the stage. 

She puffed her cheeks, a little peeved. She should’ve known she’d get snubbed. Yet she still made the effort to look nice, wearing a pretty white blouse and a black ruffled circle skirt with kitten heels and knee-high socks.

She was startled out of her pity party by the noise of four young men walking into the open room. The only difference between them was their heights and one of them having a lock of white hair. All black hair and blue eyes and definitely muscle-toned. 

“Come on, Damien, you sing first,” the eldest looking one calmly suggested. The second eldest took on a Cheshire grin.

“Does demon spawn even know how to sing?” He jeered.

The youngest rolled his eyes. “I’ll let you know I’m decent.” She assumed that was Damien.

“Then go on, brat!” the second youngest teased and shoved Damien towards the stage. 

The poor boy stumbled, sent a glare at his companions, and then made his way to the stage. The boys found a table, two of them pulling out their phones while the third, the one who called Damien “brat,” looked back and noticed her. She gave a tiny wave before turning her eyes to Damien.

For some reason, her heart was pounding as she watched him go through the tracks. She decided to lay her head down, perhaps she had a headache coming?

There were some “ooooh”s from the boys and then silence. She recognized the beginning of “Heartbreaker,” a song popular enough to end up on Glee.

“Rule number one...

Is that you gotta have fun

But baby when you're done,

You gotta be the first to run…”

Marinette’s head snapped up. Not only was he pretty decent at singing - he didn’t lie - his singing made her heart throb. In a way that it wasn’t supposed to.

Tim had been watching the girl. He noticed her jumping at the sound of Damien singing. He noticed the awe in her eyes, the sparkle that soulmates had when they witnessed their other half sing. He only smirked. 

How ironic.

“Rule number two...

Just don't get attached to

Somebody you could lose

So le-let me tell you-”

Her heart raced with the beat, her cheeks were reddening- why were they getting red? 

“This is how to be a heartbreaker

Boys, they like a little danger

We'll get him falling for a stranger

A player,

Singing I lo-lo-love you~”

Damien winked at his companions, causing the eldest to snort and the one who called him demon spawn to cackle.

Marinette blinked rapidly. Her breath hitched. Is this-

“How to be a heartbreaker

Boys, they like the look of danger

We'll get him falling for a stranger

A player,

Singing I lo-lo-love you~”

Damien had noticed her and had teasingly whispered to her the next line.

“At least I think I do…”

Marinette’s face bloomed and she turned her head away from him and his companions. Her heart sang. She was certain now. Hilarious- she thought she didn’t have a soulmate.

“Rule number three...

Wear your heart on your cheek

But never on your sleeve,

Unless you wanna taste defeat…”

Marinette managed to control her features and look back at the man on the stage, suddenly looking at him in a new light. Not bad, for someone with the worst luck in the world.

“Rule number four...

Gotta be looking pure

Kiss him goodbye at the door,

And leave him wanting more,

More.”

Damien Cheshire grinned, placing his hands on the mic stand, the one beside it void of a mic. The mic in her hand.

“This is how to be a heartbreaker

Boys, they like a little danger

We'll get him falling for a stranger

A player,

Singing lo-lo-love you”

Damien seemed stiff. Any teasing actions he had done were rare. He wasn’t used to this. Marinette grinned. No wonder she thought she didn’t have a soulmate. He’s never sang - at least not when she was aware of it.

“How to be a heartbreaker

Boys, they like the look of danger

We'll get him falling for a stranger

A player,

Singing lo-lo-love you”

Damien found her eyes again and whispered again, very obviously teasing.

“At least I think I do…”

She could change that. Her hand found the mic in her lap. She smirked and picked it up, switching it on while he went through the vocalization part.

She beat him to the next stanza.

“Girls,

We do,

Whatever it will take…”

Damien froze, no doubt feeling what she had been feeling for the last minute or so.

“Cause girls don't want,

We don't want our hearts to break

In two.”

Marinette slid out of her chair, eyes soft. Damien placed his hands on the mic stand again, though this time he was obviously using it to stabilize himself. 

How ironic.

“So it's better to be fake

Can't risk losing in love again

Ba-abe…”

They met each other singing about being heartbreakers.

Marinette found her way to the stage. He held out his hand with a soft smile.

“This is how to be a heartbreaker

Boys, they like a little danger

We'll get him falling for a stranger

A player,

Singing lo-lo-love you!”

She took his hand and he yanked her onto the stage and pulled her close before she whirled away, a teasing grin on her face.

The room Marinette’s class had rented had it’s door open long enough for them to hear the beginning of the duette. Rose was the first to jump out, wanting to see who was singing so beautifully. … so… together.

“How to be a heartbreaker

Boys, they like the look of danger

We'll get him falling for a stranger

A player,

Singing lo-lo-love you”

Damien pulled his mic off of the stand and held out his free hand. Marinette took it and spun in, wrapping his arm around her. She leaned in, giggling before spinning back out.

The class followed and Lila found herself seething. Come on, she was about to go up next! 

They pooled in, finding tables while their eyes never left Marinette, looking happier than she had in a long time. 

Lila hated it. 

“Ooooooo,

Ooooooo,

Ooooooo

Cause I lo-lo-lo-love you.”

Damien had turned away before reaching back to her and they joined hands again. He let her spin under his hand before dropping his arm and catching her by the waist and pulling her close.

“At least I think I do…”

They both whispered, Damien having leaned her back into a mild dip. 

Marinette lowered her mic, catching her breath as giggles attempted to fall from her lips. “Hello, soulmate.”
