#please let him have his slacker life

[nonexistentirl]

Went back to reread the part where Cale visited Jour's grave and got the Annual Rings ancient power and... How come I didn't notice (or was it that I just forgot?) that Raon's attribute was slowly starting to manifest there. OMG!

And the part where Jour says "you need to be a part of the Thames household to use this power properly." I'm unsure if this is an implication to White Star's last body being a part of the Thames household or just saying that White Star would not have been able to use the power properly.

Also, this part

Our Cale is not a single lifer though? OgCale is a regressor and transmigrator, but our Cale is merely a victim of that transmigrator. Though he can be considered a variable since he did end up transmigrating into this world. However, instead of a transmigrator, Jour here calls him a single-lifer. Like the Choi's. Isn't it kinda...

I have a hunch that it somehow has something to do with Kim Roksoo sharing a birthday with the Choi's. Does everyone born on November 8th end up being a single lifer? But then there'd be thousands of them. There has to be a couple more criteria at least to be met to become a single lifer.

But if Cale really is a single lifer... I don't want him to turn out to be one. I don't want him to become a God either. I want him to live a long life with his family who also all have long life spans. But I want him to die first. I don't want him to attend the funeral of anyone in his family. He has seen enough loved ones die before him for a lifetime. Let him pass with all of his family surrounding him for once. Don't let him ascend to the divine or heavenly world after death either. Let him continue in the cycle of reincarnation. And let him find his family again in those cycles. Let him continue to be happy forever without remembering the pain of it all.

Yandere! Jiaoqiu X Gn! Reader

❏ Jiaoqiu finds himself enjoying your company that he wants to extend it more.

cw: might be lore inaccurate, might be ooc, a hint of angst, you being called annoying, force feeding, mentions of pinning, no beta we die like Tingyun, written in Jiaoqiu's pov + he doesn't talk, pls don't be confused, reader is loud.

w/c: 962

Immortality is a crime... No, rather, it's a sin.

"Alchemy Commission... Agh—!! Where was that place again?! Wait a minute... Hey there! You! The pretty foxian boy with pink hair!"

Jiaoqiu finds it hard to believe that a human like you were accepted into a prestigious place such as the Alchemy Commission. You weren't even a Xianzhou Native, just a regular human. Why did he even try to put an effort into knowing who you were? Maybe it was because apart of him was curious about you and why the hell were you so loud? Honestly, he shouldn't have.

"Ohhhh, so this was the place, wow, I could've sworn I've ran into here multiple times before, why didn't I see it? Speaking of which, can you even actually see that? Why are your eyes closed?"

He wasn't exactly sure why he welcomed you so easily into his life. To put it into words... You were eccentric, goofy, and a slacker with no sense of direction, you speak out loud what's on your mind, no matter the place and time.

"Alas, we meet again, blind foxian... So you're my senior? But you're so short—"

You were blunt, sometimes it was funny, sometimes it was annoying. But Jiaoqiu never heard you tell a lie ever since the first time he met you. Although if he ever hears you call him any more honest insults, he's gonna spike your lunch with one of his handmade concoctions.

"Noooo!! Please! I don't want to memorize another set of ingredients for a different medicine!! Have mercy!!!"

And did he mention that you were loud? He'd be lying if he said he didn't find it entertaining, since the people there were so serious and gloomy. You were like the clown of the class, and Jiaoqiu was simply there to be entertained.

"You mean to say that in your own eyes, you think that food is medicine? That's... Super interesting!!"

...That wasn't a lie right? Well, Jiaoqiu hoped so. You were cheerful, upbeat, and optimistic at some times, he's yet to be accustomed by that kind of personality.

"Oh, yeah, sure I'll have a taste of your cookings, leave it to me! I'm a good food critique!"

Have a taste, he says. He doesn't know what you will reply. Will you tell him it tastes garbage? Will you tell him it's the most godsend food you've ever tasted in your life? He doesn't know, not unless he tries to have you eat it. At some point you were brutally honest it hurts him through the gut, but surely at some point when he impresses you, it would feel rewarding, right?

"This straight up tastes awful, this one is painfully bland, and this is, hmm... Let me taste again, ...mmmm!! It's super delicious!"

Was it a wrong choice when he interacted with you more? No, otherwise he would have felt so much joy in a long while. Bit by bit, you warmed up your way into his heart, securing a comfortable place in it. There was a saying that the way into person's was through their stomach, so why was it when the more he poured into your stomach and the more he was successful at making you happy, the more was being poured into HIS own heart?

"Jiaoqiu... Thanks a lot."

The second you were calm and silent. Aeons, you were adorable, beautiful, handsome and majestic in your own way that Idrilla would be jealous. He wanted nothing more but to cup your cheeks with his hands and connect your lips to his own. He wanted to hug you dearly, bask in your touch, bask in your scent. But he holds himself to the ground, after all, looking at the picturesque scene in front of him will suffice more than enough.

"What do you mean my hair is turning white? I'm still young you know?"

...Oh. Did time fly that fast when he's having fun? Was it this early for someone he would willingly hold dearly to part ways with him soon enough? Or was time just cruelly toying him? How could he even forget that you were a short-life specie, just how?

"Ugh... Sorry and thank you, Jiaoqiu. I mean, for taking care of me, I'm still really sick, my body is just getting weaker and weaker by the day... I don't know why..."

Time is running out. Why was his time with you getting cut short? Why? Why? No. He's gonna fix this, he can. All he wants is a little more time with you, can't he have that? He doesn't want to feel lonely again. Please... Stay...

"Jiaoqiu... Are you okay? You've been stuffing your nose into books all day. I just... Have a feeling your doing something suspicious, don't get me wrong, I'm not accusing you, I'm just worried."

Immortality is a sin, he knows that, he knows it all too well. The only way to achieve it is through the flesh of an Emanator of Abundance. The last time that went... Didn't go well. Fuck around with immortality and there will be a cost... That he's willing to pay, unfortunately for you. All he needed is to make a medicine that will ensure you to live longer, even if you become mara-struck, it doesn't matter.

"Are you sure this medicine is safe? I don't think that it is..."

Aeons! Just consume it will you!? Do you know how hand it took him to get his hands in these things!? Do you want him to strip naked and beg you to consume it!? You want him to pin you and shove it down your throat!?

Jiaoqiu wouldn't really consider himself sinful... So he wonders why he's dragging you into the pits of hell.

a/n: uh... this is inaccurate as hell, i barely read the lore leave me alone— 😭

You have to take supplementary 5th Earth Power to balance out your plate. As for the mineral deficiency… You should also replace that Fire Suppressing Water drink with some real Sky Eating Water. Cale: This is getting a bit much- Alberu: You requested the extra large Commander Steak too, right? Cale: Yes but- Wait. I thought I only ordered Temporary Commander's Small Nuggets-? Alberu: Nope, I'm pretty sure you ordered the full Commander of Two Continents Steak Cale: …let me speak with the manager again- White Star: I see, so you're the one who ordered all those dishes! I'm impressed! Are you hungry for some Dragon Slayer Legacy as well? Cale: (grossed out) I'm dead certain I am NOT-! God of Death: You called? Cale: Yes, I'd like to register a complaint- God of Death: Oh, we also recommend Saint's Signature Dish for today! Cage: Don't listen to him! Saint's Dish is total trash! They're not even serving alcohol with that!! Cale: Is anyone even listening to me-?! Clopeh: Sir, I brought you some Legendary Fame lemon tea!! Cale: Get this disgusting thing away from me! Sealed God: …Would you like bitter Demonification Noodles sir? Last chance to sign up, we're out of stock after this! White Star: W-wait, I ordered those-! Earth 3: Oi, was someone ordering an extra Commander's Stake around here? Xiaolen: (begging) Would you like some Purifier's Exaltation dessert? It's on the house! Central Plains: (puppy eyes) A-and, some Nature Realm Level sushi, i-if you don't mind... Cale: ….what the f*** is even happening anymore God of Balance: (shows up out of nowhere) ...What's this about someone messing around with too many orders? God of Death: Oh s***. The Power Executive is here-! God of Balance: (leans over Cale's seat from behind, menacingly) You should just order the Full Course Godly Ascension Dinner. Or ALL of those other dishes will land on your bill Cale: I… I... I just wanted some Slacker Life… God of Hope: (pats his shoulder) Cale… They never servered Slacker Life here in the first place… Cale: ... Cale: (┛ಠ_ಠ)┛彡┻━┻

An Exhaustive List of Octarian F.A.Qs... and Answers!

There's one thing I've noticed about the Western Splatoon fandom.... and that's the weird amount of misconceptions, mistranslations, and misunderstandings about the Octarians.

For some reason it's often lore about them, surrounding them, or about their activities that always seems to have this happen. And so I want to help correct that! They're a super cool faction and I want to work on people hopefully understanding them better, while helping to correct misconceptions about them.

This will be long, there will be many citations and pictures both. Shoutout in particular to Inkipedia and inkfish translator rassicas, and the hard work of both, for this.

If there's any common lore misconceptions that I left out, please let me know! I'm including every single one I can think of, but I probably missed something somewhere.

================================================

General Octarian Questions

Q. How are Octarians made? And are Octolings made the same way?

A. Octarians are made from severed Octoling tentacles (The Art of Splatoon + SplatoonBase) that are then somehow animated. Ones with more tentacles are "more intelligent"; they're sapient, either way.

Octolings are not, to our knowledge, created like this. The existence of SashiMori's Paul suggests that Octolings undergo the same life stages as Inklings do. (Similarly, Diss-Pair's Warabi has lore that mentions having parents.)

There is concept art in HaikaraWalker (the Octo Expansion artbook) that depicts Octolings mutating from Octarians... but it seems to just be concept art.

Q. Did Octavio brainwash the Octarians into obeying him? Wasn't music used to make them obey?

A. No, they were never brainwashed. Octavio uses his music to keep the Octarians in order and to keep their working rhythm correct-- like a military march. Inkipedia compares the Onward! jingle to "a call-and-response clapping rhythm used by teachers to grab students' attention in elementary schools". It does sound like that...

Now, if you want to say that Octarian propaganda is brainwashing, yes, that does exist.

Q. We've only ever seen feminine Octoling soldiers. What's with that?

A. The "rival Octolings" we meet in the story modes are all part of a special military unit that's female-only. They're referred to as "Takozonesu" in Japanese, a mashup of "tako" (octopus) and "amazons". Not every female Octoling can be one of these, and this group isn't completely representative of Octolings in the military.

There are male Octolings, they're just not part of this one group. (Fun fact, did you know that these Octolings are voiced by Callie and Marie's voice actors?)

Q. What's with the green sclera on Octarians?

A. There's no confirmed canon reasons. Octolings are very inconsistent about it, as well; Octavio has it and so do many enemy Octolings, but not other Octolings of note.

It could just be that the whites of their eyes are really reactive to stuff in general, since sanitized Octarians have black sclera. The green color could also just be something that happens with age while living in the domes.

Q. In Octo Expansion, Marina calls Octarian society "oppressive"-- how oppressive is it really?

A. This descriptor is actually inaccurate to the original Japanese, and was added in localization. (The Splatoon 2 Retranslation Project has a more accurate version over here! Thanks @shiverhohojiro for the link.) Octo Expansion has some notorious details that were added in localization, like Craig being more racist than usual or the omission of Commander Tartar's chatter about humankind.

That said. The domes are an isolationist* military-centric society, with emphasis on meritocracy. Octolings go into professions for things they're good at, not necessarily for what they want to do. Resources like electricity are limited, so they have to structure life around that detail, and strictness logically follows. The military doesn't tolerate slackers or nonsense, but talented people seem to do well for themselves based on how Marina's life was. Even so...

A lot of music, culture and artwork gets made down there! And they have things like beachside domes, bowling-themed domes, amusement park domes and even circuses... so it's not completely strict. There's a lot of room for silliness, it just needs to be in the right place.

So, to be totally fair? We don't know much. It's not perfect, but it's also not a hellish place to live if you wanted to stay. * They trade with Salmonids, but don't seem to do so with anyone else.

Q. Can they respawn? Are we killing them when we splat them?

A. Yes, they can use respawn technology in the same way Inklings and Octolings do. The only situation where an Octarian explicitly dies is, potentially, during the escape phases in Octo Expansion!

Q. Where/how did they make the domes?

A. Leftover human technology, meant to be similar "last resort shelters" made by humans. Think Alterna, but on a smaller fragmented scale.

================================================

Questions about DJ Octavio

Q. Why do we always see him in octopus form? Can he shapeshift?

A. Octavio can't shapeshift because of an injury from the Great Turf War. He was able to do so before and during it, however!

Q. We know Octavio leads the Octarians, but what is he? A king, an emperor, or what?

A. He is a Japanese shogun, as referenced by his title in the first Splatoon: "DJ Takowasa shōgun". We don't know if he was appointed by an emperor, if he was part of the previous shogun's family, or if he just sort of... took up the mantle (haha octopus joke) after the Great Turf War.

Q. Did he brainwash Callie?

Based on the information we have... I am inclined to say, no, he didn't brainwash Callie.

Callie was in an extremely stressful period of her life, Octavio reached out to talk, and... we don't know what happened next. But the context feels like Callie might have joined willingly. In reference to the Hypnoshades, it's important to note that hypnosis as a concept is incredibly variable, with one argument made that "you cannot hypnotize an unwilling participant".

"But, didn't he say--"

He likes music puns. He's a DJ. It's supposed to be funny, why aren't you laughing? (What this line was in JP, I wonder...)

... But, I feel like the evidence stacks up. It suggests that Callie wasn't kidnapped or brainwashed or forced to join the Octarians. It was probably an escape from fame and loneliness for her-- the Hypnoshades helped her get away from that and just have a good time. But with Octavio being a guy to hold a grudge, nothing got to be that simple, and Callie was ultimately weaponized against the New Squidbeak Splatoon.

It remains very up-to-interpretation because we don't know, exactly, what happened behind the scenes. But Callie fosters zero ill will towards the Octarians, even after being rescued... and if fiery, outspoken Callie doesn't seem to be angry about it, what does that say about the matter?

Q. Why do all the tentacles piloting the Great Octoweapons have the same scar as him?

A. Because they're directly cloned from Octavio and are then made to pilot them, presumably because they have the muscle memory to operate as pilots. Octopuses have very complicated brains and neural centers that extend out into their arms.. so this cool bit of sci-fi checks out.

Q. How old is Octavio, really?

A. We don't know. But the narrative often parallels him with Craig Cuttlefish, who mentions in Octo Expansion that he's 130 years old. It would be fair to assume Octavio is also, at least, 130.

Q. Why is he so gigantic in Splatoon compared to the other games?

idk man, you tell me. I think this is much funnier and cooler than later games, though.

================================================

Octo Expansion + Octarians Questions

Q. It's suggested that there were thousands of test subjects before Agent 8. Where did Kamabo Co. get all of these people?

A. Not only is it suggested that the Deepsea Metro may be accessible from other train lines, but it's also plausible that the subterranean networks that the Octarians use could be connected to the Metro. (Thank you for your hard work, Dodo.)

Test chambers always reminded me of Octarian domes, anyways, with the large amount of highly versatile space they have, and how it'd only make sense underground.

After all, Commander Tartar offered a glimpse of "the promised land", and that plays very specifically into the Octoling desire to see the surface world again. ("A utopia of light beyond your wildest dreams".) Its appearance as a telephone even seems to evoke an Octarian's face, which they're more willing to trust.

Q. Are sanitized Octarians a hivemind?

A. They're something like that, being hollow shells that have lost their memories and identities while submitting to a higher force. (This can be fixed, as we've learned.) They seem responsive to being assigned roles, what with Acht being made to produce music while other sanitized Octolings act as enemies in test chambers.

Commander Tartar's ideology revolves around a lot of "giving up one's individuality for the greater good" and "joining something bigger than yourself". To "eliminate the general idea of the individual" for "a harmonious world"... "becoming one with existence".

I think that carries a lot of interesting implications. You can draw your own conclusions, since there's no explicit canon answer.

Q. Was Acht sanitized willingly or unwillingly?

A. Public twitter info suggests that they were sanitized willingly, to "get rid of doubts and conflicts involving production" and to commit completely to music. But in Side Order, Acht says that it wasn't done willingly.

There's a lot of ways to interpret this. Maybe they wanted to at first, had a last-minute realization that they got tricked, and ultimately didn't want it. Maybe they committed completely and don't want to say it. Maybe social media is lying to us completely, in the same corporate word-twisting ways that Grizzco also uses, to make Kamabo Co. seem better. So... who knows?

Q. How does the Kamabo Corporation have clones of the Octo Canyon bosses?

A. Uh...

... I don't actually know. Clearly they have pretty advanced technology going on, so maybe they actually did manage to replicate and clone these bosses perfectly?

Or, maybe, it's just a psychological recreation of Agent 8's memories. Octo Expansion has a lot of stuff like that, so it feels pretty possible!

================================================

Anyways, that's all... for now. I'll probably only edit in more sources and tweak details on this post, but it's completely possible that I might need to add more things later.

Navigation Masterlist prev . next

Cale had been busy as of late. From learning about the illusionist on White Star’s side to escaping the mountain with the Mercenary Guild and the combined elves. It didn’t help that the white thing somehow got the wrong idea and spread the rumour that he had a god behind him.

It’s tiring. He has to do all sorts of things to get his slacker life.

‘When I’m done with everything I’m going to tell _____ to hire someone to run their county so we can go live somewhere quiet with everyone.’

That is what’s running through Cale’s mind as he finishes his conversation with his family.

“One more thing…”

Or at least he thought they were finished.

Deruth got up from his seat to go out of the great meeting room in favour of a more secluded room.

“Is this something of secrecy?”

“Kind of. It’s bound to get out soon if the situation isn’t fixed, regardless I think you would appreciate the privacy.”

Cale who has no idea what the news is about felt a random cold chill behind his back. His instincts are telling him that his either about to be annoyed or angry.

“Viscount Legalem told me that Count _____ has been unconscious for a while now. They have done everything to see what’s wrong but could not find anything. I have also sent our experts but still found nothing. All of them are saying that they are just asleep.”

As usual, Cale’s instincts were right. He is both annoyed and angry at the news brought to him.

“...”

His feelings are so distraught that he doesn’t know what to say. Duke Deruth looked understandably from the other side of the communication device. As if the rumours about gods’ will weren’t enough something had to happen to _____ the moment he takes his eyes off them.

Cale has a feeling that a god is in play.

But he dared not say his thoughts out loud.

“Our people are still over there. They are on standby in case something happens and will be there until I give the order to come back.”

“Please call them back. I will visit them myself after my business here is done.”

Cale’s father nodded and promised to do as he wished before ending the call.

The commander didn’t know if he felt crestfallen because of his rumours or angry because of the healer’s predicament. Nonetheless, his sour and sad expression made everyone around him concerned.

Some getting the wrong idea. Others understood that the poor man just wanted to be a slacker.

"One more thing young master."

Cale looked at Cage who had more to say after describing the God of Death as a blockhead.

"He told me to tell you that _____-nim is fine. However, I am not sure what he means."

Cage may not know but Cale connected the dots immediately. Everyone can see his gaze hardening at Cage's message.

"That motherfucking god!"

"Did something happen to _____-nim? I tried to check on the Perduellio territory but everything seemed to be normal. They do seem to be more secretive than usual and I couldn’t see _____-nim…"

A look of concern painted the excommunicated priestess' face.

"I'm not sure yet, I have to check myself. But please curse the God of Death twice as much today."

"I sure will young master!"

With that Cage said her goodbyes so Duke Fredo and Cale could talk privately.

During their talk, Cale’s mind became even more complicated. There are already so many things going on and now he has to infiltrate the Endable Kingdom on top of it?

It takes a lot to be the perfect slacker.

He decided to take things one at a time. Prioritizing doing the things he deemed most important.

“We’re going to visit the Perduellio Territory first. Raon get the teleportation circle ready.”

The most important thing to him right now is making sure the healer is fine.

“Are you not in a rush after hearing White Star’s plan?”

“I am, but this is more important.”

That made the vampire duke wonder just what business the young master had there for it to be deemed most important in his list.

“I teleported us inside this room because I know the human wants to check in on _____ as soon as possible!”

Cale thanked the dragon as he stepped out of the magic circle. As soon as he did the first thing he saw was _____. Just as they said they looked like they were just sleeping. As if they just lied down an hour ago and took a nap.

“Choi Han”

He calls out for the swordmaster.

“Tell Viscount Legalem and the other servants that we’re here. Tell them to not come in until I say so.”

“Yes, Cale-nim.”

With that Choi Han went out of the room, leaving only the four inside.

Duke Fredo, who is back to his bird form, cocked his head as he observes the person on the bed. He has heard of them, especially their shocking comeback from the dead.

“Is that Medicus-nim?”

“Yes.”

Cale’s answer was simple as all his attention was on _____. He then got closer to the bed, walking until his knee was hitting the soft mattress. His movements were soft, careful even. As if the slightest thing will disturb the healer.

At Cale's gentle and cautious movements, Duke Fredo understood just how much this person meant to Cale.

"Maybe I should chain you beside me and ask hyung-nim to hire someone to handle your territory work?"

Cale felt extremely frustrated at _____'s unconscious state. He shouldn't have allowed the healer to get out of his sight without one of his people watching over them.

"That seems like a good idea, maybe I should talk to hyung-nim after going to Endable? Hmm?"

He couldn't help but mumble his real thoughts as he stroke the count's hair.

At that moment, _____'s eyes fluttered open. As they did two strands of tears fell from their eyes.

'That fucking bitch, after I'm done with White Star I have to smack that God of Death next!'

Luckily, it doesn't look like the healer would cry. If they did Cale would make sure to remove one of the gods existing in this world.

“Why do you look like Ron gave you raw lemon?”

_____ joked while poking Cale’s furrowed forehead. There’s a slight blush on their face and the redhead isn’t sure if it’s because of their tears or something else.

“You really have the nerve to ask me that?”

“Hahaha I guess I shouldn’t– Why is there a vampire that looks like a bird? Wait are bird vampires real? My ancient power is telling me it isn’t…”

“Ho? You can tell who I am? I thought you were a healer, do you have another power?”

The bird fluttered his wings a little to greet the healer.

“It’s an insider secret, it would be disadvantageous for me to show all my cards when I don’t know you, now would I?”

Duke Fredo lets out a hearty laugh at _____’s response.

“My son picked a good one.”

“Anyways, so we’re going somewhere.”

Cale ignored the vampire’s nonsense.

“Everyone out. Raon put a soundproof barrier in the room.”

“You guys can hang out in Raon’s room next door.”

Cale looked at _____ pointedly at the mention of the room. How is it that a toddler has a room and he doesn't?

“Don’t worry human I’ll share my room with you!”

Raon tried to console the redhead.

“Hahahaha! I’m kidding. It’s actually two rooms in one. One room is for the kids and the other one is for you. There’s a connecting door in the middle so everyone can go as they please.”

“When did you even have the time?”

“I mean all I had to do was say the order and wave my hand. Anyway, that room is beside this one. The first door is Cale’s the second one is Raon’s and the kittens.”

Just in time, Choi Han comes back to hear the count’s instructions. He already saw the rooms they were talking about so he signed himself up as the two’s designated guide.

“Cale-nim I have fulfilled your orders. Viscount Legalem told me that it should be fine if you take _____-nim with you. He is more than capable of handling the affairs here.”

The swordmaster greeted the healer for a bit before guiding himself and the others out of the room.

As soon as the door closed and the sound barrier was up Cale began explaining.

“I’m not from this world. I was from a place called Earth and we had abilities. My previous team leader back there gave me one of his powers called embrace. It’s what I used to get the other earth attribute power.”

…If one can call that a proper explanation.

Good thing _____ is used to Cale throwing fast ones at random times. Being around the redhead so much has rendered them immune to his sudden burst of confessions.

“Hmm, so that’s how your plate didn’t break the balance. That’s good. Now what was this thing about us going somewhere though?”

Cale internally let out a sigh of relief. Contrary to his calm and nonchalant demeanor he was nervous about telling _____ about his real identity. He was nervous that it would cause a rift between them. That they won’t be as closed as they used to be.

Sure he can fix it. Communicate and work it out. But can he take it? Can his heart take being disconnected from them for that long?

Just during the short while they have been apart hurt the redhead. What more when they have to be apart because _____’s mad at him?

His heart wouldn’t be able to handle it.

Cale doesn’t know when he realised his feelings. Maybe it was during the Henituse Battle? Perhaps during the Battle at Castle Leonia? It could even be when he went to ‘visit’ the healer’s family.

Cale Henituse wasn’t sure but one day he woke up fully accepting that his heart beat wildly at the mere thought of _____. His chest feels warm at the thought of seeing them. And he feels irrational anger at the thought of a single scratch on their body.

It was also why he decided to tell the healer everything. He craves that sense of acceptance from them. Wants them to have the privilege of knowing every side of him.

And he was glad that _____ looks ready to accept him for who he is.

Their remaining talk was smooth. Cale updated the healer on everything that went on. From the fake World Tree to the battle that happened in the Stan Territory just a few hours ago. No detail was spared.

A lot of things have to be done. A lot of people have to pay. However, despite all those things Cale’s shoulder feels a little lighter. He feels as though everything else is easier now. Before he would have reasoned that it was because he feels at ease as everything is going well for him.

But not now.

For he has learned that it’s more than that.

He has finally opened his eyes and accepted his feelings.

Accepted that it was indeed more than feelings of responsibility.

The room was eerily quiet, save for the faint sound of your labored breathing. The once vibrant light in your eyes had dimmed, and your skin was pale as the moonlight that seeped through the window. The end was near—you both knew it. Yet, the man by your side, the infamous slacker of the Henituse family, remained as stoic as ever.

Cale Henituse sat by your bedside, his usual indifference masking the storm raging within him. He’d always been good at hiding his emotions, mastering the art of detachment to protect himself and those he cared about. But now, as he looked at you, that carefully constructed facade was crumbling.

The man who had faced monstrous enemies, and the burden of a destiny he never wanted, now found himself powerless in the face of your impending death. He had always been the one to remain calm, calculating the best course of action with a cold, clear head. But now, his heart was heavy, weighed down by the words he had never been able to say.

“Cale…” Your voice was barely a whisper, weak and fragile. Even now, you were more concerned about him than yourself. It was just like you—selfless to the very end.

He didn’t respond immediately, just tightened his grip on your hand. He felt the frailty of your bones beneath his fingers, the warmth slipping away from your body. Cale had always hated being vulnerable, but now, he was terrified. He was about to lose the one person who saw through his indifferent mask, who loved him despite—or perhaps because of—his flaws.

“Why are you still here?” His voice was rough, almost accusing, as if trying to provoke a response that would bring back the spark in your eyes. “You should have let me go long ago. You should’ve left, but you stayed, damn it.”

You offered him a weak smile, your lips trembling. “Because I wanted to be with you… even if it was just for a little while longer.”

Cale closed his eyes, feeling the weight of guilt and regret bearing down on him. For once in his life, he couldn’t run away, couldn’t hide behind his usual apathy. He had always kept you at arm’s length, believing it was safer that way—for both of you. But now, as he watched the life slowly drain from your body, he realized just how wrong he had been.

“I was afraid,” he finally admitted, his voice cracking. He looked away, unable to meet your gaze. “I thought… if I kept my distance, you wouldn’t get hurt. I didn’t want you to suffer because of me.”

Your eyes softened with understanding. You had always known. You had seen through his cold exterior from the very beginning, recognizing the warmth he tried so hard to bury. Even now, in your final moments, you could see the love in his eyes, even if he couldn’t say the words.

“Cale,” you whispered, your voice barely audible. “You don’t have to say it. I’ve always known.”

His chest tightened, and he cursed himself for his cowardice. He had faced death countless times, stared it in the face without flinching. But now, he was paralyzed with fear—not for himself, but for you. He couldn’t bear the thought of losing you, not like this, not when he hadn’t even had the courage to tell you how he felt.

“Please… don’t leave me,” he choked out, his voice breaking. He wasn’t supposed to be the one begging, but here he was, clutching your hand like it was the only thing keeping him tethered to this world. “I’m sorry… for everything. I should have told you… I—”

You squeezed his hand weakly, offering him one last smile. “I know, Cale. I’ve always known. It’s okay.”

Tears he hadn’t even realized were there began to fall, staining his cheeks. Cale Henituse, the man who had always kept his emotions locked away, who had never shown weakness, was now breaking apart in front of you. And it was too late. The words he had always kept buried deep within him, the feelings he had never dared to express, were now pouring out—but they came too late.

You took a shuddering breath, your eyes fluttering closed. The last thing you saw was Cale’s face, twisted with sorrow and regret. And despite the pain, despite everything, you were at peace. You had always known how he felt, even if he hadn’t been able to say it. You had loved him, and that was enough.

“Goodbye, Cale…” you whispered, your voice barely more than a breath.

And then, you were gone.

Cale sat there, still holding your hand, even as the warmth faded away. The silence was deafening, the weight of his unspoken words crushing him. He had always prided himself on his ability to outsmart his enemies, to come out on top no matter the odds. But now, for the first time, he realized he had lost the one battle that truly mattered.

He had lost you.

And with you, he had lost the chance to tell you that he loved you.

Ateez as a Boyfriend

Okay, now that I have done their ideal type. It is now time to look into what type of boyfriend they would be like. Let's go!

Okay, first look these cards were not what I expected. Anyway, I may understand more once I dive in.

Hongjoong (Queen of Swords/House 4) So, normally the QOS's is someone calculated, observant, a good listener, and open to new ideas, but in this deck, yes, all these qualities apply, but there is a coldness, a sense of detached energy here, also someone very mysterious. This may be how he is as boyfriend. There is this dark and shadowy energy surrounding him when it comes to him as a boyfriend. He will be very calculated, logical and strategic, more so than overly emotional. But we do have the House 4 card, which represent home, family and comfort. So, there is a sense for him to bring peace, comfort and stability to his partner as a boyfriend. But I can see him hiding his emotions behind logic. Also, do not cross him, because boy will be vengeful and spiteful.

Seonghwa (9 of Cups/Uranus/House 6) I didn't want to keep three cards for this reading, but I just felt pulled to keep them. He would feel really happy and fulfilled. He would feel overjoyed in relationships, but the 9 of cups in this deck always gives me the impression of someone faking it, and putting on a mask of happiness, so he may do that as a boyfriend. Having a strong foundation is important to him. I am actually being drawn back to his ideal partner reading where I got the impression he didn't want a slacker, because as a boyfriend he is all about getting all the important little details in life done, he is a practical man. He is someone progressive and open minded. I don't see him following the status quo as a boyfriend. He would like to break the chains that confine and define relationships. I am not sure what that means, but that is the messages I got.

Yunho (The Moon/Pluto) This surprises me. I am kind of getting there is some shadow work he needs to do as a boyfriend. Not sure this is something he is working on. There is a need to work on the hidden layers of himself. This one is confusing me. He doesn't give me the emotional type, but the moon card can signify that, but my sense is he needs to do some inner reflection and work through his emotions. He may the type to hide his emotions in relationships I am getting that. Like I feel this is more guidance, than him as a boyfriend to be honest. I will say he maybe shouldn't date, because he has some inner shadow work to do from what these cards say. I feel relationships may bring about fears and worries for him, also there could be a lack of clarity as well. Weird, now I may need to look at this when I get to his perspective reading, because this threw me off.

Yeosang (10 of Pentacles/Opposition) How this boy never makes sense to me. I wonder if family will play a big role as a boyfriend, like his partner would have to please his family. Because there is a power balance and point of tension when it comes to him as a boyfriend. Like pleasing his family is important to him. As a boyfriend he would like to build a strong foundation with someone. Someone he can be proud of and be successful with. This seems very artificial not going to lie. Alright, I am done, I get annoyed with this boy's energy, because he makes no sense to me. Nothing against him, that is his energy, but I can't sometimes with him lol

San (Strength rv/House One) *Sighs* My sweetie San. These cards are basically telling me he should not really be in a relationship. With the strength card rv, that needs to be upright, it means he is very vulnerable, lacks confidence, can't really stand up for himself as a boyfriend. This could lead him to be manipulated by others. The strength card upright shows me someone who is more than capable of handling a relationship, but with it showing up in reverse his guides may be telling him to work on himself first. We got the House One card, this card represents individuality, our self-image, and how we approach life. He may struggle with this, so they may be encouraging him to work on who he is, before stepping into a relationship. Once again, when I channel I don't always get the answer I am asking, but I will sometimes get guidance messages, because that is what is needed for the energy, although, he won't see this, so not sure why I get this, but I do. Maybe, so you guys will understand where he is at, who knows.

Mingi (7 of Wands/Virgo) He can be very protective, territorial and create a barrier for his relationships. I mean Leo's are like this, so yeah. He would be the type of boyfriend that will protect his partner from harm, and he wouldn't allow any obstacles to get in the way of his relationships. He may be the type of boyfriend that enjoys being of service to his partner. As a boyfriend he would love to be there for his partner in times of need. This Virgo card just screams that he would be the type of partner that would be like whatever you want, I will be there.

Wooyoung (9 of Pentacles/House 2) I laughed when I saw these cards. How this boy does not give a fu** about relationships or being someone's boyfriend. The 9 of Pentacles is the single and free card and House 2 is all about material wealth and possessions. Now, he may see his partner as one of his possessions, so there is that. He seems to like his independence and freedom, and he likes money. I don't see him being very emotionally invested in a partner as a boyfriend. I just think right now he isn't in that headspace. Remember I tap into the energy at the moment, so this doesn't mean he won't be a caring boyfriend, but as of now. He is about himself, his money and goals. Honestly, I don't blame him. Same.

Jungho (4 of Swords rv/House 9) I feel like for him in relationships he feels he doesn't get to relax or have a break. This is kind of hard for me to decipher here. It is like he can't relax as a boyfriend. Once again, this is not really about how he is as a boyfriend. There is a lack of mental peace he has. He may find his partner too clingy and, in his space too much. Now with this House 9 card, this indicates relationships are spiritual lessons for him. They are there to serve his higher purpose and grow, because at the end of the day whatever is challenging to you is meant to be a lesson for you. I feel him. I am the same way, it is that Aquarius energy, we love freedom and space, so that may be a struggle for him as a boyfriend.

Okay, this was a lot. Although, I love chatty energies like this group, man, it can take a long time to get through these readings at the same time.

[literaila]

I need satoru and reader to actually confront some of their issues bro😭😭😭 I feel like they would after so long and them just pushing eachother away every time they get upset hurts. Like their relationship doesn’t feel serious 💀😭😭 they don’t have to confront everything all at once but I definitely think they would start communicating better and not just keep going in a loop. I love angst and hurt comfort but I need more comfort 😩

the thing about their relationship is that it is so unserious.

i mean, both of them have grown up in places where everything was overtly serious—reader had to grow up and learn how to take care of herself, and satoru has always had to be a grown up, the strongest.

so although i agree that they never really talk out their issues, necessarily (or at least not on screen)—they also don’t need to.

there’s a strong understanding between the two of them. and something a lot of people miss (or i don’t describe very well lol) is that reader needs someone like satoru—someone who doesn’t want to be serious, or talk about everything—and satoru needs someone like reader—someone to care, someone to keep him grounded.

and when they’re avoiding each other, it’s because there’s so much that both of them need to comprehend. and understanding someone like that can be very fulfilling, but also equally exhausting.

also! i must add that i really don’t write about a lot of every day things for them—because it’s not very… helpful in guiding plot purposes. but they fight a lot less than as seen. or there’s subtle corrections:

“satoru, if you keep leaving your disgusting mugs in the sink, i’m going to plunge all six of your eyes from out of your skull.”

“that’s impossible.”

a harsh glare and satoru holds his hands up in defense. “okay. no more mugs. how about bowls?”

“satoru—“

or in a more serious case:

“please stop telling megumi that he should be on the lookout for curses at school.”

“it’s a school,” satoru points out. “and megumi is basically a beacon of cursed energy.”

“that doesn’t mean he needs to worry about it every second of the day.”

“he needs to keep his guard up. it’s good practice.”

“he doesn’t need to do anything.”

satoru smiles. “sweetheart, do you want him to be hurt at school? in front of his classmates?”

“well…”

“he’s a strong kid, and he already knows about them. you can’t just expect him to forget because you’d rather him not care.”

you pout.

satoru kisses the top of your head. “he’s just going to go down to the nurses office and call one of us, just so we know.”

“fine. but i’m not dealing with it.”

“wow, you’re a real slacker, you know?”

readers biggest flaw is that she wants to deal with everything on her own, and she thinks that the world is naturally evil. she’s good at talking her feelings out—but sometimes feelings aren’t logical. they can’t be. and living with two children is definitely helping her realize that.

satoru’s biggest flaw is that he’s spent his whole life holding everyone at arms length. infinity is a huge clue to his character, and how he relates to others (it’s my favorite detail about him, can you tell??). but he has to let it go, release his limitless technique, so he can get close to reader and the kids.

they’re taking steps, albeit baby ones, but steps nonetheless.

(plus, with their relationships in the past, the moment something’s gone wrong, people leave. so they both have abandonment issues, and yes, it’s so much easier to avoid a conversation than risk losing the person you love most in the world).

it also feels important to note that parents (most of them, at least) can’t focus so much on themselves. and it plays a big role in struggling families and relationship problems. because having kids is a devotion, a huge responsibility, there’s less time for other things.

so really, i think they’re doing pretty good. i mean, if toji hadn’t died—or hadn’t existed—their relationship would be more developed, obviously. stronger. but for their circumstance, they’re two very strong and intelligent people.

and they love each other, so what else matters?

[sleepytwilight]

I have a fun idea lmao

Imagine arcana twilight cast react to mc who's is an aggressive fighter lmao.

This remind me of that request about Bakugou Katsuki as Summoner.

𝔸𝕣𝕔𝕥𝕦𝕣𝕦𝕤

He did not expect for you to actual manage to kill the lizard monster with your bare hand.

Summoning him was a pure mistake because you already killed the monster-

You mistook Arcturus for a kidnapper and almost hit him but Arcturus knocked you out of self defense

Self defense is important kids-

Good thing he managed to calm you down when you arrived at academy

Trust me Arcturus supervised you almost everyday, please don't get into any fights-

And you got into fights.

At least you get rid of monsters-

𝕊𝕡𝕚𝕔𝕒

My guy was disappointed in 69 languages-

Well at least he put a good use on your strength by letting you go to missions.

Please stop getting into fights though, Spica is considering his life decisions.

At least you get along with Queen Tet- Okay you need to stop kidnap Pollux just because he's look like he needed to he protected.

He get concern why you fight so aggressively so he put you into fighting lessons by Vega.

It works but it doesn't stop that habit of yours on biting people's ears.

Seriously why?

ℙ𝕠𝕝𝕝𝕦𝕩

He wonders why the hell you keep on kidnapping him everytime you lay your eyes on him then snuggled with him.

He's not complaining- he actually like being like this.

Okay he should complain when you bit off some students ears that made fun of him.

Jk he didn't complain and cheering you on until Arcturus came then he pretended he was about to stop you

Pollux wonder if he put you and Alpheratz in the same room, what will happen.

He did put you and Alpheratz in the same room to see what happens 💀

𝔸𝕝𝕡𝕙𝕖𝕣𝕒𝕥𝕫

Alpheratz didn't get pay enough for this, he was planning to live like a slacker because Spica seems don't assign him to babysit you.

Of course Pollux was the one who did it-

You keep on challenging Alpheratz into a fight, he doesn't want to and keep on ignoring you.

Well you get tired from yelling at him for a fight, he pulled you closed to him and you both take a nap

Pollux got detention from Spica for locking Alpheratz in a room

Alpheratz could easily escape though, he chose not too-

𝕊𝕚𝕣𝕚𝕦𝕤

He said something that instantly stop you from fighting.

The committee guide members are grateful but curious what the hell Sirius said to you.

We will never know-

Jk he promised to turn into your favorite animal, you really could use an animal support-

Anyway Sirius enjoy your unpredictable decision, seriously why did you punch a student nose then throw them out of window.

how???

He doesn't really care if the student die, less student, less problem they say

𝕍𝕖𝕘𝕒

He got Vietnam flashbacks

You guys were childhood friends, of course he know how to tame you.

Okay but he used to tried to copy you when he was little because he thought you're cool. You still cool but you need to stop fight people like boar.

He asked you what does it taste when you bit off someone ear, you never answer him-

Well he didn't like the way you fight, you need to learn more. You can't always depend on your fist and teeth.

He sometimes asked himself whether it's a good decision to let you use a sword.

At least you make missions easier and both of you can enjoy your little date.

[amarylliasky]

Number 7! Tomorrow’s a week, guys!! I’m also putting this one under the cut cuz it’s a bit longer than I anticipated(as per usual). Let me know if you all are fed up with me putting everything under the cut. I’m just trying to make it easier to peruse these posts, as there are going to be a lot by the end of this.

Oh, Absolutely Not. (Twins AU)

Cale wouldn’t call himself vain, but he knew how to appreciate a good thing. He knew he had a good face and body, that’s not even talking about his perfectly styled hair. He prided himself in taking utmost care of his appearance, unlike his lazy, ‘the only exercise I need is breathing,’ brother. To top it all off, he had a sense of style. Sure, all those fancy outfits and accessories could be a pain to put on, but that much was nothing compared to the final results.

He stared as the other person squirmed under his gaze. This simply will not do.

Normally, Cale would leave his brother to his own devices about his wardrobe, heaven knows he has no sense of style and doesn’t care what other people think of him on any given day. But he would be absolutely appalled if he let his twin brother come dressed to a gala like he just got out of bed. This wasn’t like those times they just teleported into the Crown Prince’s bedroom, this was an actual gala, with actual nobles and royalty, all looking at them. Cale was not going to go around letting someone with his face dress in poor standards.

Calyan apparently had enough of Cale’s withering glare, as he finally spoke, “I don’t see why it’s a big deal. I can just go dressed like this.” And Cale would almost rather he not go at all. When his glare deepened, Calyan said something else. “Or I could go in the commanders uniform?” OK, that’s it.

“Calyan,” Cale started “for the love of your slacker life and both of your Hyung-nim’s dignities, please just don’t talk.”

Any more of this and he might start wishing for a slacker life himself.

How his twin brother grew up in the same household, with the same spoiled rich life as him, and yet still had no sense of fashion appalled him. If it wasn’t for the fact that Calyan was just a weaker, paler, skinnier copy of him with long hair, Cale would sometimes question if they were even brothers, let alone twins. Alas, Cale Henituse is stuck with the weakest and laziest(at least when it comes to his wardrobe and getting out of bed) brother in the history of the Roan Kingdom. Is this really the Supreme Commander of the Allied Armies who defeated the White Star and resealed the Sealed god? This shrimp? This guy who looked like he was about to march into his own funeral instead of a gala hosted by the Crown Prince(soon to be Emperor), aka, his Hyung-nim?

Commander or not, if Cale had to go “mingle” with the other nobles on account of his newly acquired Swordmaster status, then Calyan had to go as the Commander and Cale’s twin. There’s no way that Cale would torture himself going if Calyan wasn’t forced into going too.

And if Calyan was going too, then Cale would make sure he looked absolutely fantastic. It was also his face after all. The face is the final piece to fashion, but a nice get up never hurt anyone.

Ignorant to the long suffering look his model/brother wore, Cale got to work scouring, not Calyan’s, but his own closet.

Calyan watched with dawning horror as his twin pulled out what must have been some people’s (even by noble standards) entire closet. And the worst part is, it didn’t seem to have even made a dent in his brother’s vast collection of apparel.

It was an exhausting three hours in which Cale played dress up with what was probably over thirty different ensembles. Including, but not limited to; a silver button up with a heart pattern on the chest(just why.), paired with a navy dress coat and dark grayish blue dress pants. And heeled shoes. Yeah, no. Another ensemble included a white button up under a gold colored vest and a black overcoat with a pair of simple black dress pants, all under a white cape with gold accents and embroidery; and we can’t forget the gold-rimmed glasses. He didn’t even wear glasses. Another ridiculously lavish outfit was a white dress shirt with a black vest that had little flower designs on it, under a purple tailcoat and a silver scarf of all things. Furthermore, the tail of the coat nearly reached his ankles, and the white pants were paired with a gold belt connected to a dangling butterfly. Hard pass.

At the end of it all, they(Cale) finally decided on a white dress shirt under a burgundy vest with intricate swirling patterns, paired with sophisticated black dress pants and a cape that was such a dark red color that it looked black. Throughout the fabric of the cape was a pattern of gold vines, and the vest had several gold chains hanging from it. Last, there was a simple yet stylish black ribbon around the collar.

Cale stood back to inspect his choice of outfit. Not too bad. It didn’t scream luxury like his own often did, and yet it easily told of his status.

Of course Cale had to match his brother. What better way was there to show that were a set?

Cale’s outfit consisted of a wine red button up with the same black ribbon, a black vest, and a white cape with gold vines in the fabric. Of course, he also had several gold chains hanging from the black vest and dress pants. And where his brother chose to go with simple black boots, Cale wore stylish black leather dress shoes with gold buckles. Because he had class.

Now the cherry on the cake would have to be Calyan’s hair, which he would entrust to Roan’s best stylists, Rosalyn and On. On loved to style her father’s long hair and Rosalyn didn’t suffer through countless balls and other formal events for nothing.

Now with their gala attire selected, they finally finished their much needed revisions for the party preparations. Both redheads were exhausted by the end of it, however, one was filled with a sense of victory and accomplishment at finally succeeding in convincing Calyan to wear ‘appropriate’ attire.

As a reward for putting up with his brother’s relentless nagging, Calyan was now relaxing with a nice book, some desserts, and some sweet tea since Ron had yet to return from his errands in Huiss, and thus the butler was not there to torture him with a sour beverage. As for Cale, he left his lazy brother to his own devices.

Sometime later, Cale passed Ron, who had just returned, it seemed, on his way to the underground training room of the Henituse estate in the Capital. He figured he could get in some extra sword training until Hans came to fetch him for dinner. While he didn’t need the practice, per se, he still enjoyed the light workout.

During the final battle against the Lion Dragon, Cale Henituse had finally reached the Swordmaster level. It was quite the accomplishment, being only twenty years old after all. Hannah and Clopeh were both a few years older than him, and according to Calyan, Choi Han was much older than he looked. Yes, quite an accomplishment indeed. Even without his memories from his previous life (if you could even call those fragments ‘memories’), which he hadn’t actually acquired until right before the final battle at Puzzle City, Cale still made astronomical progress in his swordsmanship. So, he could confidently say that he reached that milestone using his own strength.

When he arrived at the training grounds, he found that it was already occupied by their resident “Youngest” Swordmaster. Scoffing, he headed toward the rack of training swords. The Korean had surely noticed his entrance, but chose to keep doing his practice drills rather than to address the redhead’s interruption. Well, we can’t have that now, can we?

A wooden sword came flying at Choi Han, which he easily caught without even looking.

“Up for some light practice, our Dear Youngest Swordmaster?” The black haired individual finally turned his head to face the young master who was looking at him with his trademark cocky grin. Even after two years, it still weirded him out seeing that smile on his “liege’s” face.

“Try and last longer this time, Cale-nim.”

So the two started their “light spar.” Needless to say, it ended in Choi Han’s victory, much to Cale’s incessant whining about the unfairness on account of Choi Han’s many years of experience.

Well, old man or not, to Cale, Choi Han would always maintain his youthful, emo glow.

——

Yes, Cale learnt what emo means thanks to one of Calyan’s off topic comments about pre-regression Choi Han. And yes, he does use it to tease Choi Han every chance he gets.

For the outfits….you’re just gonna have to use your imagination. Mostly, it was my own imagination and a mashup of outfits from Pinterest that inspired the ones described. I might draw them later though.

[asterefflores]

Yup, yours truly is back! To cause trouble again (sorry lol can't help myself) the last few ones have been great! And I loved em tho if I could trouble you a lil more I would like em to be a bit more longer? *Kicked* I'm a sucker for long reads (sorry (not sorry at all)) soooo let's get right into it.

Soooo, this time around my request is kid Cale!!! Or kid kimroksoo!!!! Whichever you decide to write (tho honestly speaking we both know the fun one would be roksoo who pout over the whole situation lmao, and ofc tristan NEEDS to THERE) either ways, so a curse or something similar had hit the one of the brothers or....both of em *eyebrow wiggle* (why take one when you can have both *crackles in evil*) now everyone is panicking cuz they have turned into children the others are dying from cuteness, the actual children raon, on and hong are having the time of life and Tristan is just shaking his head and sighing in the brothers are making trouble again and how can be forget the brothers where if it's one of em, then the other is having the time of their lives teasing thier brother and if it's both of em who are children, they are just sighing in why can't they be just left alone In peace?! Well rok soo is enjoying his slacker life even as a child since everyone is pampering him, Cale is shaking his head but secretly love all the attention he is getting from both his hyung and all thier family.

That's the request lmao, what do you think? (Sorry for the trouble lolololol)

Have a great day and tc!💐

Not really exactly as what you want or imagine I guess but here it is at last, tho it contains some spoilers lol,,

-----------------------

Tristan quietly sighed and rested back in his chair, closing his eyes with his arms crossed, deciding to rest a bit as Madelin made him promise.

“Your Majesty!”

‘Well, there goes my rest.’ Tristan opened his eyes and looked at his assistant, who suddenly barged into his office, looking unusually panicked with the communication device in his hands. “What is it?”

The assistant hesitated as he quickly realized he had disrupted the Emperor’s break time. “There is an emergency call from the Henituse Duchy, sir…”

Tristan paused with one blink. He suppressed a sigh and moved to sit properly with his legs still crossed, his hand reaching for the device to the side on his office desk, “Take the call.”

“Yes, sir.”

The assistant immediately pressed accept, and the screen appeared before Tristan, revealing a distraught Deruth Henituse.

Tristan tried not to frown horribly, just as he usually does whenever he looks at the man.

-Hyung—

“Tsk, I told you not to call me that.” Tristan sighed, instantly annoyed, “What do you want now?” He narrowed his eyes, “You didn’t call just to panic over what present to get for RokSoo and Cale, did you?”

The assistant prepared to disconnect the call as Deruth Henituse had done such a prank before, which only put their Emperor in a foul mood for almost a whole week. Having seen how the man was ridiculed intensely by their Emperor, the assistant was sure that no one from the Henituse family would dare pull such a stunt ever again. Well, maybe, except for the two redheads. Their Emperor was exceptionally kind and weak when it came to the two brothers.

-No, no…it’s RokSoo…

Tristan frowned slightly more as he could tell the man on the screen was hesitating and scared. “What the fuck did you do?”

-I did nothing!

Deruth quickly started explaining, frightened by the look in Tristan’s eyes that slowly shifted to something dangerous.

-We don’t know how to turn him back! And I’m afraid the curse is affecting his mind now! What do I do, Hyung?

“……”

Tristan kept staring for a long moment with a deadpan face. He calmly stood up, “I’m coming over right now.”

-Yes, please do, Hyung!

“Say Hyung one more time, and I’ll rip out your tongue.”

 

Tristan didn’t have to look at the screen to know from the silence that the man paled with a flinch, taking his threat seriously, as he should.

-…you will bring the Empress with you, right?

He raised an eyebrow and looked at Deruth, “No.”

Yet, here he was, in Cale’s office together with Madelin.

“Didn’t we agree for you to get along with Deruth Henituse, Tristie?”

“I don’t recall agreeing to become his Hyung.”

“Honey, you’re announced as that to the public.”

“Relatives could still be distant as to call each other formally.”

“And do you call him formally?”

“Why would I even need to speak to or about him?”

 

“……”

Cale watched in amusement at the couple before him. It’s always interesting to watch Madelin make the vicious Tristan Battlesea appear as a pouting kid throwing a tantrum with his arms crossed and looking away from his wife like that. 

“I apologize for having my father scare you into hurrying here, Dad, Mama.” He said as he brought the cup to his smiling lips while the two looked at him, frowning with a quiet sigh as he found it was lemon tea even when Ron wasn’t in the office with them. “Little Hyung is not dying or anything.”

“…little Hyung?”

“Hm?” He looked at the two, who seemed lost. “Are you saying that father didn’t explain the situation to you?”

“He said something about turning RokSoo back.” Tristan slightly frowned, “I would’ve used the spirits to check on RokSoo without needing to come over or hear from that dumbhead of a father—”

“Tristie.”

Tristan kept looking at Cale with his arms crossed, “—but I know RokSoo gets uncomfortable when I do so, so I didn’t.”

“Haa, how can I scold you now when you say something cute like this out of nowhere?”

Tristan gave his wife a deadpan look, “It’s common consideration of one’s discomfort, don’t you do it too?”

“Of course I do, but it’s so damn endearing when you do it.”

“I don’t see the logic in that.”

“Sure, you shy cutie.”

Tristan only sighed elegantly and just let his wife keep pinching his cheek tenderly, used to Madelin’s many loving teases, knowing there was no helping it when she was a bit upset with him.

“As sweet as it is to see you two loving each other, please don’t flirt in front of this poor, innocent son of yours.” Cale casually sipped the tea and stopped himself from laughing as Tristan looked silently grateful for the distraction.

Knock, Knock—

“Ah,” Cale looked at the door, “Hyung is finally here.” He put the cup on the table, stood up and calmly walked to open the door.

“…why are you smiling like that?”

Madelin and Tristan blinked when they heard a kid’s voice instead…

“Would my little Hyung please allow me to carry him?” Cale asked with a gentle smile.

RokSoo frowned at the punk before him looking at him with a playful glint in his eyes and arms open and awaiting to take him from Ron.

“Come here. I know your trip here was tough enough already.”

RokSoo let himself be taken from Ron’s arm, instantly relaxing in Cale’s arms while the punk chuckled.

“Hoo, was the Kitten possibly troubled with this servant?”

RokSoo shivered and quickly looked away from Ron’s benign smile. Cale was right; having Ron smiling at him was scary enough before, but it was even more frightening when he looked up, and the vicious old man kept smiling down at him like he was one of those little rabbits he liked to hunt down, ‘Vicious old man…’ He shivered again when the old butler laughed quietly.

“You should really fix the way you smile, Ron. At least when around kids.”

“……”

RokSoo lightly wrapped his tiny arms around Cale’s neck when the smile disappeared from Ron’s face at the comment, ‘This fearless punk!’ However, he felt safe when Cale started lightly patting his tiny back, knowing that no matter what in their house, no one could bother him or anything at all if he was with Cale.

He now really understands how good Cale is with kids. No wonder all the kids gravitate to his Dongsaeng wherever he goes. 

“Now, let’s take you to our parents.”

RokSoo blinked as he looked over Cale’s shoulder at the office, but he couldn’t see who was on the couches behind the door. ‘Tristan and Madelin are here?’ So that was why he was suddenly asked to get to the Duke’s office when he was about to take a nap.

“Ron, take the kids and give us a moment alone.”

“Yes, Puppy.” Ron smiled at the sigh from his Puppy Young Master. He looked next somewhere in the air, “You’ve been caught.”

“Gentle Human!”

Raon, Hong and Ohn suddenly appeared before the door, looking at Cale with puppy eyes.

“It’s been so long since we saw Purple Grandpa! We miss him! Let us see him!”

Cale lightly patted Raon’s head with his other hand and turned around with his usual smile, “Dad?”

“It’s fine.”

‘What happened to not wanting to meet anyone?’ Cale held back a chuckle and stepped aside, and the kids immediately ran inside.

“Purple!”

“We missed you!”

“Cheerful Grandma! Do you have cookies today, too?”

RokSoo and Cale sighed as they listened to Raon and Hong immediately asking for Madelin’s cookies, with Ohn sighing but happy to see the couple.

“Come in, Ron.”

Ron walked after his Puppy Young Master into the office and closed the door behind him, following the two redheads to stand behind the sofa.

“Ah…oh, crap…”

RokSoo stiffened when their mom suddenly froze as her eyes fell on him. ‘…why is she looking at me like that?’ He found Madelin’s wide eyes a little scary at that moment.

“…can I hold you?” She asked carefully, almost in a whisper, with hopeful eyes and awaiting hands, “Please…?”

“……” He silently nodded despite not feeling like leaving his Dongsaeng’s side, and Cale gently moved him into Madelin’s arms.

“Awwh…”

Everyone looked at Madelin, who seemed overwhelmed and lost for words, hugging the child in her arms so carefully as if afraid to crush him.

“Aww, no, I think I’ll cry~~”

She whined as she rested the side of her face atop RokSoo’s head while gently caressing his red locks.

 

Raon came closer to whisper to Madelin, “Isn’t my Human cute?”

 

Madelin nodded without looking at Raon, cupping RokSoo’s cheek, “He is~~” She whined again as she couldn’t contain her endearment.

“Hehe~” Raon turned to Tristan, poking his shoulder. “Purple Grandpa, isn’t Human cute?”

Hong jumped onto Tristan’s lap, looking up at him with his tail wagging happily, “He’s so sweet, right?”

“Haa…” Ohn sighed again at her young brothers, but she was also secretly waiting for Tristan to react as he stared long at RokSoo, seemingly shocked or observing.

“…undeniably cute, of course.” He slowly nodded, “Since when and how, though?”

“Shh, let’s bask in the moment.”

He sighed at his wife as she looked close to lying down with RokSoo tucked in her arms like one of her little teddy bears at home.

“Don’t you sigh at me!” She frowned at her husband, “You got to see baby Cale when I wasn’t around! You cheater!”

“My win.”

Everyone watched as Tristan only taunted his wife with a prideful nod.

Madelin tossed him a look with a raised eyebrow, “Let’s see if it’ll still be your win tonight, then.”

He let out an amused hum, “Should I take it as a challenge, then?”

Ron looked amused as he noticed his Kitten and Puppy Young Masters were rendered speechless at the couple’s loud flirtation.

“Purple Grandpa! Cheerful Grandma! You shouldn’t fight at night!!”

Cale held back a laugh while RokSoo sighed at the look from the couple when Raon suddenly interrupted their staring competition.

“Anyway,” Tristan calmly turned away from his wife to look at Cale sitting before him, “How and when?”

He brushed his hair back with his hand, “We suddenly woke up and found him a baby. He doesn’t know what happened either.” Cale said as he casually sipped his tea, “It’s been 4 days now.”

Madelin blinked and slowly looked down at reddish-brown eyes. “Are you hurt, honey?”

RokSoo felt awkward under Madelin’s loving eyes like this. “…no, mom.”

“Do you feel pain or discomfort anywhere by any chance?”

“…no.”

Madelin nodded while playing gently with his hair, “Good, at least we can have our time finding a way to turn you back.”

“Yes, no need to rush.” RokSoo assured her with a stoic face.

 

RokSoo frowned when he noticed from the corner of his eyes, ‘What is this brat laughing at?’ Cale’s shoulders shook slightly as he held back a laugh, hiding his smile behind the cup.

“I want to know, exactly what was that idiot panicking for?”

“Tristie.”

Tristan nodded and kept his eyes on Cale, “What was Deruth idiot Henituse panicked for?”

“Try again, honey.”

He turned to Madelin, “It’s enough that my question is understood.”

She held out her finger, shaking it like she was reprimanding a kid instead, “Nope, now try again, my love.”

“Haa, what was Deruth panicked for?”

Madelin nodded, looking satisfied. “Good, I’m proud of you.” She caressed his smooth cheek for a moment with loving eyes, “We’ll both have a talk with him later after this.”

Tristan didn’t look impressed.

RokSoo shivered at the smile and tone from Madelin, ‘Vicious…’ He was sure that promise wasn’t meant to be kind. For what reason did Tristan and Deruth get into another fight this time? When will the two get along?

“Father is worried because Hyung can’t use his Ancient Powers in this body to protect himself in case he gets in trouble or someone kidnaps him, which will not happen, obviously, not on my watch.” Cale sat relaxed, almost lying down as he explained while brushing his hair, “Another reason is that Hyung here likes it a bit too much, so he thinks RokSoo is slowly being brainwashed.”

RokSoo flinched slightly at being exposed, ‘Why is this punk so good at reading people?’ But could anyone blame him? RokSoo can slack off and be looked after like this; everyone will do everything for him since he’s a weak child now, and people will soon forget or leave the Hero Silver Shield alone, right? Although it’s a bit concerning he can’t use his Ancient Powers because they’re powerful on his small body now, as long as everyone is around him, he’ll be fine. No one dared to attempt anything ever since Cale became the Duke, so why worry?

“I see.” Tristan looked at RokSoo for a while.

“……” RokSoo felt unsettled whenever his dad looked at him as if observing him with knowing eyes.

“As much as I’d like you to be comfortable and enjoy your slacker life, I must let you know that you’ll soon turn so tiny to fit in anyone’s palm. Is that still okay with you, RokSoo?”

RokSoo almost choked on the cookie Madelin gave him.

“Tristie, you scared our poor kid!”

Tristan gave a slight shrug, “He should’ve been scared when he turned like this out of nowhere, but he chose ignorance.”

“Well…” Madelin hesitated and looked down at RokSoo, “Honey, you do have a bad habit of neglecting concerning stuff happening to you.”

“……” He looked down and felt awkward. ‘Will I really turn that small?’

-Yes, you will.

His eyes trembled at Tristan’s voice in his head.

“I can help you, though; I was just making sure if you wanted to stay a bit more as a baby.”

He looked at his dad.

“Someone played a prank, it seems, or not really a prank. I can only assume it’s to please…some people here.”

“……”

Cale stared long at his dad with everyone. “Killian did it?”

Tristan sighed, “Sorry, he took it a bit too seriously when I once told him I wish I could make Madelin see you two as babies since she…” He avoided everyone’s eyes, “…you guys know her condition.”

The room was too silent for a long moment.

“Tristie…”

Cale observed as Madelin looked so touched, almost close to crying. He couldn’t blame her when she had an incredibly considerate husband like Tristan Battlesea. It was really sweet of Tristan to care about Madelin, his beloved, to the extent of even taking her ranting seriously about having him seen one of their kids as a baby while she hadn’t. Since she can’t get pregnant, she can at least be overjoyed to see them as babies and live the dream for a while, but it is only a wish. It’s clear that Tristan didn’t mean it at all to actually turn them into babies. However, it seems the prank worked only on RokSoo and not on him because of the Invulnerability power.

“Hold on…” Madelin suddenly frowned as she slowly looked down at RokSoo in her lap, “…why will he turn so tiny then?”

Tristan hummed; his eyes looked amused. “…because it’s a curse based on your wishful thinking.”

“What?!” She turned sharply to her husband.

Tristan shrugged, “I know you’re thinking like, ‘I wish I could fit him in my pocket’ or something similar.”

“Wait, no! I mean, yes! He’s so adorable, ok?!”

“Cheerful Grandma! You can’t turn the Human to dust!”

“I won’t!”

‘Not as small as dust…’ RokSoo only sighed, munching on the cookie.

“How can I stop my thoughts, Tristie?!”

“You can’t; your wild head is something else, after all.”

Madelin gasped as if offended, “At least my wildness takes you to heaven every night!”

Ohn and Hong looked lost yet amazed, “You can fly to heaven?”

“I’m strong and mighty! The people of the Empire aren’t better than Dragons. I can come up with a spell and take both my humans to heaven and come back!”

“Haha,” Cale couldn’t help laughing elegantly with the cup in his hand, with Ron looking quite amused behind him. At the same time, RokSoo almost choked again as Tristan quietly sighed and tried to conceal the little embarrassment by calmly bringing the cup before him to his lips, even though he had avoided it the entire time since it was lemon tea.

“Anyway, I can lift the curse from RokSoo myself.” Tristan explained with a slight grimace as he put the cup down. “But first, come here.”

“……”

Everyone stared silently as the Emperor took RokSoo from his wife’s arms. “…you’re even younger than when Cale was inside the World Rock.”

No one got to say anything when Tristan gently hugged RokSoo in his lap.

“……”

RokSoo stayed still at first and slowly hugged back, getting used to Tristan’s quick hugs by now, but it was his first hug from his father as a child.

Tristan left a kiss on the top of RokSoo’s head and looked down at him, “There, now you’re even.”

“……”

RokSoo didn’t know what to say, while Cale and Madelin smiled at the scene as Tristan didn’t want any of his kids to feel neglected, even in the smallest things.

“Oh, no!”

Madelin panicked when suddenly, RokSoo glowed and seemed to shrink.

“Human is turning to dust!!”

‘Why dust?!’ RokSoo wanted to sigh as Raon kept saying scary things.

However, it felt like everything had stopped when Tristan put his hand on RokSoo’s head.

RokSoo was suddenly wrapped in a bright, silver light, growing bigger and bigger until the light faded.

RokSoo opened his eyes and almost shrieked at finding out he was sitting in Tristan’s lap.

As an adult. Sitting in his father’s lap.

“……” He was at least still dressed decently.

“This never happened.” He said while he calmly left Tristan’s lap and stood up, activating Dominating Aura and silently exiting the room with a stoic face.

“……”

No one uttered a word about what happened that day as they felt sorry for the poor older redhead more than pressured by his Dominating Aura.

hey if any of us are lucky enough to get Iskied to the world of “Trash of the count family” and meet Cale and his family.

Please under no circumstances mention the fandom. Because he will hate us

Let me explain

**Caution spoilers ahead**

Cale doesn't like attention.He will already be freaked out about the fact there is a story about him to begin with.It will make matters worse if he knows that there is a fandom for his book that created a religion called Caleism. That we long for him to cough up blood for our enjoyment.That we also waited hundreds of chapters for this man to stab his own heart with a stick and cried in happiness when It happened. Some of us simp over the White Radish because he looks like Kim roksoo with red hair and other half of us started liking lemonade because Cale shivers in fear when he drinks because of Ron. And an honorary mention to those of us who write fanfiction/fanart maybe the pure cute family ones might survive but rest will be turned to ash like the library of Alexandria.

In short Cale will find us creepy and even worse then Clopeh.

He may also try hunt down the author so they can give him a slacker life right now. So

So Once again To the lucky soul who ends up in the novel its ok to reveal some things about the story when needed but please for all our sakes don't talk about the fandom.

Have a great day/night everyone!

[death-threats]

Thank you very much for the fast answer and for being so nice ✨

Can I please have Kizaru with prompt 15. "Can they please fuck me, oh my God—" 😊

Thank you in advance 🙏✨

Being a Marine meant discipline. It meant that you knew how to fight, not flee. You were of a respectable rank and even had subordinates looking up to you for instruction and guidance. You were well-liked for being a little softer than your cohorts but you didn't let it diminish your tough reputation when you needed to dole out punishment for slackers here and there.

Day by day, you continued to work your hardest and you may be lying to yourself if you were to say you weren't showing off for a certain someone. In the beginning, you were strictly busting your butt just to be the best for yourself and for the Marines. After getting to know Kizaru though...you were trying to be the best for him.

As you moved through the rank and file of everyday life, he began to take notice of you. He'd ask you out to lunch, to come in his office and talk about your day and vent if you needed to, and you spent time together on more than one occasion when you weren't needed on base. Those days were extra special for you.

One cool Sunday morning, he picked you up for brunch - his treat. The two of you walked to a nearby cafe and you couldn't help but notice his new, freshly-pressed suit. Your nails dug into your palms as you tried not to stare at how amazing his long, toned legs looked in those slacks. "Can he please fuck me? Oh my god."

He turned his head to you as he opened the door to the cafe, ushering you indoors. "What was that?" He asked.

Had you said that out loud? Oh shit. Ohhhh shit. "I didn't say anything." Hopefully that wasn't a lie.

A smooth, honeylike laugh left his lips and he looked down at you over his tinted lenses. "Do I have to write you up for insubordination? Tell me what you said. A little louder this time."

You swallowed the lump in your throat and disregarded the few customers that were engrossed in their own conversations around you. It was just you and Kizaru. "I said, can you please fuck me."

"That's what I thought you said." He smirked, crooking a finger under your chin. "Let's eat first, then how about we discuss this further afterwards?"

[blueteller]

have not finished the novel but can you please spoil if the family of original cale knows cale isn't the real one? and did krs!cale tell anyone he transmigrated?

Good question! If you don't mind getting SPOILERS, I'm happy to answer!

In short, no, the Henituse family members don't find out, at least not in Part 1 (as Part 2 is still in progress).

I also do not get the feeling that they ever will, because when Cale meets OG Cale, who now goes by Kim Rok Soo himself, he's encouraged to embrace the identity of Cale Henituse the same way OG Cale had fully embraced his new identity in Korea.

Cale's old team on Earth 1 noticed that their "Team Leader" had become different, but he also seems happier and adopted a daughter (his reincarnated mom), so they don't mind the change and are actually glad for him. Which is the perfect reflection of how the Henituse family reacted when Cale "finally" stopped being "trash", because both Cale and OG Cale were not happy before the transmigration swap and everybody could see it. So them changing so suddenly was seen as them "dropping their mask", so to speak – which is funny because that's exactly what happened. Both of them let go of the burdens of their past lives to fully enjoy their new ones. Everybody involved is all the better for it (the only thing the God of Death ever done right, lol).

But here's the interesting bit. While the Henituses never find out, there are other characters who do.

First comes Choi Han, who practically speaking got "spoiled" by the God of Death himself. He gets the memories of his relative Choi Jung Soo, Cale's long dead best friend. Seeing KRS in those memories Choi Han easily puts the two and two together, as Cale never really changed personality-wise from his old life (especially his desire for slacker life, hahaha!).

Immediately after Choi Han finds out, Cale tells Raon as well, as he was present while everything was going down and the curious Dragon wanted to understand. Cale's explanation of his transmigration to Raon was extremely short, but very sweet.

Third, there was Alberu, who found out during the Sealed God's Test – which is a whole huge plotline which is too complicated to explain in detail right now, so keep things short, Cale was put into his old 20-year-old body to re-experience his biggest trauma, and both Choi Han and Alberu got to join him there to help him out. Alberu did not recognize Cale immediately, but he saw him using his Ancient Powers, so he put it together quickly as well.

Then followed one of the most hilarious yet heartwarming exchanges between the two, as Alberu realized that whatever was going on put Cale in a very vunerable position, so he sincerely offered to hear him out. Then Cale, with his usual subtlety of a rampaging elephant, info dumps about his and Choi Han's dimension travellers status. Alberu's reaction is one of the funniest moments in the book for me.

Shortly after, there was Lee Soo Hyuk in the Sealed God's Test, Cale's old Team Leader, whom Cale decided to tell the truth before he went back to the fantasy world; as it turned out that there was a younger KRS inside the same body all along, and he wanted someone to know the truth why he was acting differently all of a sudden.

So Choi Han, Raon, Alberu and Lee Soo Hyuk from Earth 2 were the characters who found out about Cale's transmigration (and also the KRS from Earth 2, but I'm not sure if we count him....? Let's say he counts). But I said earlier, Part 2 is still ongoing... And it looks like Ron and Beacrox Molan will found out soon.

Why? Because they joined in on one of Cale's dimension trips, and with Cale changing his appearance accordingly, they seem to be finally putting it together why Cale's personality suddenly changed overnight 2 years ago. They've seen enough clues, and they're not stupid. The conversation about it seems to be put on hold right now, however, but I'm pretty sure it's going to happen sooner or later.

If things happens as I predict, then that will be full 7 characters (aside from OG Cale, Earth 1's CJS & LSH, and various gods) who know about Cale. Seeing as Cale is allergic to explanations, I doubt anyone else will found out any time soon, lol.

I hope this helps!

[weirdsht]

just thought of cales wedding,, on as the flower girl or hong and raon as the flower duo – they could be ring bearers too, eruhaben just stands there (with his lips twitching, he's happy that cales getting married + the kids happiness), Ron with the usual benign smile, beacrox cooked the Feast?, choi han may or may not have teared up (my friend is getting married to my friend!!), Rosalyn is happy for both of you (kinda like a sister to s/o), cales fam is there (happy their son found happiness), jack officiating the wedding? (Does it work like that), alberu, who's tired of his sworn brothers bs, is happy for him and his bride and ofc the rest of cales co is rejoicing (they're finally wedded!!) – will probably have a huge party that cale wants NO part in, slacker life is nearing he said

I'm sorry if it got long, I've been thunking thoughts

same anon said:

part 2 of cales wedding thoughts

(i forgot to write that his s/o was the vice commander, or smth like that)

cale, whose smile is so genuine, it's almost unreal. his group is flabbergasted at that smile – it's not the kind of smile he makes when he's scamming someone, not the one when he receives money – it's a different one, entirely different and so in love

cales s/o, whose so happy, smiling, singing, and so in love – they danced together, sang, and played with the kids

alberu, who threw a banquet after cales wedding for the couple, celebrating their union, and gives cale and the vice commander their wedding gift (golden plaque) and is planning to use the vice commander against cale (enslave cale to paperwork) (might even throw a festival for them)

the citizens who are happy that their ex-commander and ex-vice commander are now a wedded couple

clopeh sekka would be writing about their love story and everything, making a museum for cale-nim

cale who gets annoyed when his s/o and clopeh are doing caleism activities, to which she'd reply; "it's not my fault we have the same bias"

choi han, whose tearing up (borderline bawling), is carrying on and hong, raon clinging onto his neck, he's so happy that cale and miss (name) are finally married

Ron, who practically raised cale, who watched his puppy young master grow in love with (name), is proud cale grew the balls to propose (he thought it'd be cute to see little red heads running around Harris village and the villa)

Rosalyn, who thought of (name) as her sister, is giddy, if she wasn't in public, rosalyn knows her sister would be smiling and kicking her feet – she KNOWS that they're so in love with each other, she may have been the one who pushed cale to propose

Eruhaben, who thought of (name) as his daughter (or granddaughter), watched over her and cale (though from afar), he once mistaken them as a couple – which left (name) flustered – but made them both realized their feelings

cales group, who's so happy for them– their two leaders, who sacrificed themselves countless of times, saved them, and gave them a home - are finally each other's home.

hiiii i think i mentioned before that i'm a bit uncomfortable with asks where almost the whole thing has been written out.

i'm only letting this one slide as this went in my inbox when i haven't updated my navigation yet. however, moving forward i will be deleting such asks. sorry guys.

and to anon, please don't feel bad or anything! your idea is great it's just that i'm not the person to send these kinds of ask to. i'm sorry.

A LOVE TEXT AWAY - Jung Sungchan & Anton Lee

chapt. 006 _ who are you?

PAIRING: RIIZE's Jung Sungchan & Anton Lee x M!Reader SUMMARY: After a very weird confession over text, things started to go downhill for you, but not entirely, only until two boys came into your life and changed your life forever. NOTE(s): may contain explicit content that's not suitable for younger viewers. please read at your own risk.

ADDITIONAL NOTE: this chapter contains narration

[ chapter index ] [ previous chapter ] [ next chapter ]

the cafeteria is bustling with people, mostly because of students and some are teachers who worked in this school.

"thanks for sparing some time for me, yunho. i would die of boredom inside that room," you said before munching on the clubhouse sandwich that you bought as a snack. you huffed, while yunho only listened to you rant about your class section that he knew always stressed you out. "i mean, like, hello? i'm their classmate, too, you know? and they treat me like i'm invisible. why don't i just stick a pen into their eyes, would they finally see me?"

yunho lets out a sigh. "don't stoop that low, darling. knife those eyes!" yunho laughs darkly, you pulled your face back in terror.

"okay, you're scaring me," you commented, before yunho clears his throat and took a bite of his food. "sorry, i'm just a little stressed with my project partner. he thinks so low of me, like i'm some kind of, what? a complete slacker? puh-lease, i can do better tricks than anyone in my class," you stated out before angrily munching on your sandwich again.

"if you continue to eat your food that way, it's gonna cry," yunho joked.

"hmph!" you huffed.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

after a few more story exchanges with yunho, unfortunately he had to leave already since he still had a lot of papers to sign. and here you are on your way back to your classroom with a paper bag filled with snacks that yunho insisted on buying since he had to cut the talk short due to the duty that is necessary to be done today.

you were just about to make a turn around the hallway towards your room, when a man that almost reached the heights of the ceiling suddenly bumped into you, the impact hard enough to make you fall. "shit.." you uttered out as the male continue to run, while your eyes were fixated on him. "could have at least said sorry!" you yelled, tutting your tongue.

you fixed yourself and dusted off any visible dirt on you, when a hand extends towards you which caused you to look up at the owner. "my apologies. it was my fault he bumped into you," the deep voice reverberated as a soft smile is displayed on his lips.

your mouth fell agape at the beauty that is standing right in front of you. he looks so surreal, so ethereal, so out of this world. even his voice sounds pretty. you hesitate to take his hand, but you did and felt the soft skin of his palm. it was like holding onto a baby's.

he helps you up and you still can't believe such man could exist in this world. "are you alright?" he asked you and you only shook your head in reply. "that's a relief. he's born to always make trouble wherever he lands," he said.

you notice his eyes on your name plate before his brows furrowed, questioning. "hold on, sorry for asking, but you're anton's partner, right?"

wait, how did he know? do they know each other? "uh, yes, actually. no one in my class wanted to group up with me, haha, funny story, i end up with him," you answered, that made him sigh. did you say too much?

"so, i'm guessing you're the one that sohee mentioned when he told us about what anton did," he told you.

you smiled. "the one and only," you said sarcastically, then paused. "wait, how do you know sohee?"

"he's a very close friend of mine, back when we were in elementary and he's also a classmate now," he replied, then suddenly remembers he had manners. "park sungchan, by the way. nice to meet you, y/n," he introduced himself, extending an arm as you shook your hands and exchanged smiles.
