that strange feeling of not knowing where or who you are with but still feeling at home

update: I'm slowly patching iver to a Skiff based workplace and was testing the calender on my phone. Haven't used it for much, BUT!

Last night I got a reminder notification for Indigenous Peoples Day.

Not a single mention of Columbus! Not even when I open the calender and look at the auto-generated events 💙

If Google isn't going to give me reparations they should at least let me delete "Columbus Day" out of my calender

Satoru yawned with fatigue. It was his 3rd day without sleep, during these miserable days: he had pursued the curse that kept eluding him, solved the problem of the cursed object locked in the wall of the mountain, and additionally travelled half the country to find the cursed womb that was registered, to his misfortune it arrived as it hatched and he had to fight it.

All he dreamt about now, was going to bed and get some sleep.

"Why did you stop, Ijichi?" he asked, tipping his head to glance in his direction. Satoru was now on his way home, the road was getting awfully long, it was late at night, and besides, Ijichi didn't seem to be in much of a hurry.

"We have to wait for someone," he announced in a trembling voice. He still didn't know if this was a good idea, he hadn't been given official orders from above, and yet he obeyed. Satoru furrowed his brow in astonishment.

"If anyone would like to see me, have them make an appointment with my secretary, preferably after I've slept a bit. I'm not in the mood for it" he was getting weary and it was no surprise to anyone. Maybe he could get out of this car before this person arrived?

Suddenly, he heard the boot open and immediately afterwards, someone forcefully opened the door. shit, too late.

"Hello Satoru~" you said in a cheerful voice getting into the car with your backpack. You glanced at his face. "Surprised to see me?" you asked.

You knew that this nightly sneaking out could have serious consequences, but at that moment, you totally didn't give a damn.

"Quite a lot." he replied "What do I honour this visit with? Higher-ups have sent us on missions again? How wonderful" his voice was tired, but still gravelly and bored to the point of pain. Looking at him, you are unable to tell how many days he has been without sleep.

"Well not this time." you replied "We're going on holiday." you said it with a smile, as if it wasn't you at all.

"Ee- what?" he probably couldn't have been more confused. He was too tired to process it.

"You hear right." you started to pull something out of your backpack "Ijichi, to the train station!" you said it quite loudly. Gojo didn't know if he was dreaming or already hallucinating, it had been a long time since he had seen you so happy. A packet of sweets appeared in your hand, you reached out, to hand it to him with a sly smile.

Apparently that was enough to make Satoru shut up and focus his attention on something other than complaining. He was tired enough that he didn't want to pursue the subject. And your presence made him go on autopilot and not care about anything as long as you were close and full of strength.

You knew the mission was hard for him, especially as he was silent the whole way to the station, eating the sweets you had bought him. All the way from the station to the small village where you had a rented a cottage, Satoru slept, resting his head on your shoulder. When you got off, you just had to drag him with your luggage for some time, but you managed to endure it.

He really was like a child sometimes, you stated as you opened the door and threw your luggage on the floor. It took about 20 minutes before you'd got your head around everything, in which Gojo managed to slide off the couch you'd arranged him on. Fortunately, all that was left was to put him to bed, which you had done more than once, you had experience of managing him in his almost dead-sleeping state when he returned from a mission. This activity, without you being surprised, took the least amount of time. You both found yourselves in your pyjamas, snuggled together on a nice and cool bed.

----

Satoru was slightly awake, not wanting to open his eyes, he started to adjust the pillow under his head. He tried to arrange it a few times, each time it didn't work out the way he wanted this pillow doesn't arrange like the ones I bought last year.

Then it dawned on him that he wasn't in his bed. He opened his crystal blue eyes to looked around the room. It was definitely not his bedroom. He furrowed his brow, lifting himself off the pillow completely, finally connecting the dots in his head and remembering what had happened.

You took him on holiday. That much he managed to remember.

After his morning visit in toilet, he head to the kitchen, following a pleasantly sweet smell.

There you stood, in a summer dress he had never seen before, arranging various desserts and many types of sweet bread on a large, decorated tray.

"Good morning, how did you sleep?" you sensed his presence immediately, besides you also heard him going to the bathroom.

The white-haired man looked around the kitchen and the connected dining room. Everything was clean, neat, well decorated, you could feel the atmosphere of the countryside and the remoteness from the city. This house looked like one where one could truly relax.

"Well, I finally got some sleep. This chasing of curses is such a pain." he sighed straightening his limbs after sleeping.

Just then you put the trays of baked goods on the table "I'm glad, I asked my friend to buy us fresh baked goods in the morning, I didn't think he would bring so many." you giggled clearly embarrassed. That's not what I had in mind, when I asked him for variety.

Satoru sat down on a chair, crossing his legs. ''And why are we even here? Not that I'm complaining, I'm happy when my wife visits me at work and then takes me out into unfamiliar territory when I'm practically asleep...but it's not in your style."

You sighed as you poured portions of fresh juice into your glasses. He's been calling you his wife more and more lately, and you wonder if this is getting under one of his taunts.

"I've decided we need a holiday. Both of us. Away from everything for a while." you said putting your glasses on the table.

"Megumi?" he looked concerned.

"With Shoko" you answered. Satoru noded in understanding.

"Back to the topic. It's well known if we're gone for a long time, the world will come crashing down after all, so I told the higher-ups that we're just going on a weekend of well-deserved rest." Satoru started laughing, your head turned towards him.

"You're joking. They'll probably find out now by questioning Ijichi where we are." he took one of the baked goods in his hand. As soon as he bit into it a wave of flavour spread over his tongue. Wonderful.

"Well no, I payed them a visit myself." you sat down close to him, he reached for his glass at the time "I expressed my opinions on some things and said we were going on holiday." Satoru listened intently unable to believe a bit of what he was hearing. Since when did you stop being so conciliatory?

"Of course, they didn't agree at first. Stubborn, old fools." you mumble the last part "For two days of our absence, the world won't collapse, come on." you took a cupcake yourself "Besides, I said that if they tried to stop us, their walls would have a new, more hmm.. purple colour." you bit into the baked goods and he almost choked on his juice.

Are you capable of such things? Yes, you are, he knew that. He knew you enough to also know, that you avoid such solutions and consider them a last resort. Unlike him.

"I'm sick and tired of them bossing us all the time, treating us like their property. If you wanted to, you could smash them with one finger and you wouldn't even break a sweat, they know it well, and yet, we let them get on our heads too much." you drank a glass of your juice.

Satoru was still silent, his eyes glancing once at you and then another sweet roll on the tray. You're probably right, he's been more stressed lately, the pressure is overwhelming, it's taking its toll on your relationship. It spoils the blood not only for him, but also for you, who also have to deal with them when he's not around. Although it doesn't matter now, these two days should pretty much reset him, bringing him back to his open to fun and confident self.

Damn. He is indeed too serious lately.

Fortunately, here with you, he can relax and let himself be carried away by the programme you have planned for him, because he knew you had something planned. You handled such things well, unlike him. His speciality was spontaneity and unscripted decisions.

"So what's the agenda for today, sweetie?" he said while shoving another sweet roll into himself, not wanting to pursue the uncomfortable topic any further. It was his sixth roll somehow.

"I'll explain. A friend of mine is coming over in an hour or so, he's going to give us bikes and we're going to ride around, I've got a couple of spots we might like. And tomorrow we will go to the hot springs and then I have a surprise planned for you." you replied with a wide smile pleased with the plan. Gojo was happy with it too. "I want to have fun." you smiled to yourself.

"So a bike tour, huh? Just don't complain if I leave you behind or your legs hurt, we both know I'm faster." another cupcake was in his hand. who makes such yummy food?

"I have one more thing for you, a request actually."

"Hm?" he paused devouring a sweet roll to look at you. His white hair were still messy and his crystal eyes aroused, from the amount of sugar he had consumed. There was frosting from the baked goods at the corner of his mouth, and scattered crumbs on his bare chest and belly.

Does he always have to look captivating in all conditions?

"This trip is because we both need a break from our duties. And this trip is primarily for you, Satoru.'' he looked at you as if you were a freak, and it was him that the strawberry filling fell on his stomach.

"Duh~ Of course even the strongest need a break. They think this perfection keeps itself going?" he said scooping the filling from his skin with his finger, licking the contents as soon as he put his finger around his mouth.

"Please listen." you looked at him seriously "This holiday is not because 'the strongest needs a break', no." You got up from your chair and quickly walked over to the linen bag hanging on the chair, pulling something out of it and tucking it behind your back, walking over to him again. "This trip is because Satoru needs a break." you stood next to him, placing your hand on the back of the chair behind him.

Your other hand revealed a pair of round, dark, blue tinted glasses.

You both knew what those glasses were. They had belonged to him back in his high school days, the exact pair you had once taken from him during training as a trophy for beating him in melee training. Six eyes was shocked when you knocked him to the ground. You used trickery of course, but you didn't set the rules, so the prize was yours. Now he's surprised too, at how good a condition they're in, and that you kept them at all.

You found them recently in one of the boxes you were afraid to look in, because all the stuff from your dorm was there, including Suguru's stuff. But you'd been cleaning recently and decided you should finally do something with it. That's where you noticed the pair of glasses that were lying right on top. There were some other things besides, but you didn't pay any attention to them anymore. These glasses reminded you so much of the good old days, that you just stood there for a few minutes in thought, simply holding them in your hands. They reminded you of all the beautiful moments, hardships and fun you had as a teenager, even though you spent most of your time with Suguru, Gojo also fulfilled some small role in your life back then - when he wasn't teasing you - of course.

It dawned you. That's right! Fun! You closed the cabinet, taking only that item, running to your computer to start planning everything.

"So for the duration of this trip, I'd like you to be exclusively yourself. Not 'the strongest', not 'Six Eyes', not 'the greatest sorcerer of modern era'. No. Please." he parted his lips slightly, his face expressing a lot of emotion as you put your glasses on his nose.

"Just be Satoru. That's all you need to be for me." a gentle smile dawned on your face.

You glanced at him from a little further away. "Look at you, you haven't changed a bit." you brushed his hair with your hand gently. Indeed, he looked the same as he did in his school days, only his boyish features had matured over time. Those are still the same blue eyes that made you dizzy, whenever you tried to focus and glance deeply into them. You noticed something.

Why is he blushing?

Why does his face look like that?

After a long moment, in which his eyes completely failed to leave yours, he burst out laughing. He corrected himself in his chair, at the same time putting his foot back on the floor.

In one swift movement, his hands grasped your figure, making you sit sideways on his lap. His face moved dangerously close to yours, one of his hands was on your back, the other on your exposed thigh.

What is he doing?

You were surprised at how easily he was able to seat you and with what gentleness his arms embrace you. His hand moved from your thigh to his nose, as he lowered his glasses to look at you. His eyes literally scanned yours, your bewildered face beginning to take on colour, a little more and that deeply hidden blush would come out into the world.

"Only if this miserable girl from my class joins me too, heh." his shit-eating grin made you hot. Your heartbeat drowned out your thoughts for a moment.

Wait - what did he call you?

You gave him a gentle nudge, standing up from him, pouting.

"Idiot."

His retch filled the silence completely.

----

The forest through which you passed seemed endless. Beautiful colours surrounded you all over. The perfect weather only accentuated them. You drove a little uphill the mountains, sun peeking out from behind the leaves, leaving glowing glimpses on the forest road.

Satoru was riding ahead of you, not holding the steering wheel with his hands at all. His legs holding the bike frame were enough for him. You wondered if he was even looking at the road, he had his phone in his hand, playing some kind of mobile game. Occasionally he would stop with a squeal of brakes, to take a picture of what was a nicer bit of terrain. The real revelation was, when he spotted a bird playing with a stick a few good metres away; you didn't notice it, but he had his eyes and a pretty good zoom on his camera.

However, you had been on straight road for a while, so his full attention was focused on the phone. You came up with a slightly crazy idea. You made sure that your backpack and the contents of your basket were well secured, and then you started to speed up rapidly. You passed him very quickly. When you were in his line of sight, you showed him your tongue and continued your fast ride far ahead of him.

He quickly tucked the phone away, you had caught his attention enough, that he saw your haste as a challenge.

You don't know how long it took you to race him. You could say that you quite matched his pace, overtaking him every now and then, or he was gaving you a head start, there was that option too. You didn't want to let go too easily, although you were slowly running out of strength, you were glad that your cursed energy was helping a bit with that. Sometimes he tried to disturb you, for example: trying to poke your cheek, he had long enough arms to reach easily. You did not remain indebted to him, by trying to ride close enough to him, that you had to step back slightly.

This situation was no different. You overtook him again, this time quite a bit, you turned around when you noticed that he didn't manage to overtake you. His smile was the same one you remembered from the better days of your high school. His whole look was practically the same, you're sure it's a matter of those glasses.

Was he the same? It was hard to tell. You thought for a bit and stopped looking at the road.

Quickly turning your head to notice a pretty big turn. Really close to you.

“Shi-” you had already prepared for the fact that you might fall off a cliff. You already wanted to use your technique, when suddenly something pulled you back with considerable power. Your back hit something. The white-haired man pulled you towards him with the whole bike, a couple of meters away from the turn, completely stopping you in the process.

“Did you just use your blue on me?” you asked, quite shocked.

He answered you nothing and silence, you couldn't read his smile. Without a word, he rode quickly away from you gaining a murderous pace, ringing his bike bell cheerfully in the process.

----

A shadow perfectly enveloped your figures as you sat down by a tree together to rest for a while. Satoru asked for moments to pause, wearing his old glasses, while pleasant and nostalgic, put him into a slight migraine overtime. Though he didn't want to admit it to you, you knew him well enough by now to wordlessly hand him banages from his backpack with a slight smile.

He accepted the material, wrapped them around his eyes, giving him a long sigh of relief. He was truly grateful to you for understanding his needs, giving him a moment's pause whenever he needed it. He put the cloth over his eyes, closing them and trying to fight the migraine that was slowly growing inside him. He concentrated for the moment on his own thoughts, which were mainly focused on you. Were you always so caring? No wonder Megumi came to you more often with most of his needs.

The minutes passed at a fast pace, for that, his migraine refused to pass so quickly. He was replaying some memories in his head that had just flown by. He didn't even notice when he started to fall asleep, surrounded by the hum and soothing gusts of wind and the pleasant scent of nature.

----

He was awakened by a gentle nudge from something near his leg. Satoru opened his eyes and looked quickly at the scene before him. You sat down in front of him, still with the same soothing smile. When you noticed that you had woken him up by accident, you put your hand on his leg, muttering a quiet "sorry''. He noticed you were tinkering with something, by the fact that were sitting a piece away, with your back to him, he was unable to notice what, he was too sleepy for that.

Satoru took off his banages completely, depositing them in the backpack beside him, and in one efficient movement put his glasses on his nose. His migraine had stopped finally, he felt extremely relaxed and rested.

The view was beautiful, the picturesque fields and mountains seemed endless. For moments he stared at the white clouds, absorbing his six eyes with this view, waiting for you to finish working on something. Which you did literally moments later turning to face him, draping the fruit of your labour behind your back.

"I have something for you." you said. The smile wasn't coming off your face today, usually you were much more serious, thoughtful and even sometimes sad, in contrast to him, he was never serious, thoughtful or sad. At least that's what he tried to pretend. Today was different though, today he didn't have to pretend his happiness even a little bit.

"A gift. For me? You spoil me completely today." he chuckled with his confident smile, simultaneously interested in what she had prepared for him.

"Close your eyes." without thinking, he followed your command with his smile. He listened as you moved closer to him, he even felt your touch on his leg again, when you needed a gentle support. Your hands moved closer to his face. He felt something on his head, a very gentle weight, barely perceptible.

"You can open now." So he did, which was met with the sight of you taking a picture of him.

"Wait a minute, that's what you pay for! Do you know how many people want a photo with that georgous face?" he reached out to take the phone from your hands, you responded by giving the phone behind you as much as you could. This light-hearted tug-of-war didn't last long, at least not until out of the corner of his eye he noticed the screen with the photo you'd taken earlier. He moved away in amazement.

A crown of flowers? And not just any crown, you could see the craftsmanship of its creation, the blue and white flowers matched himperfectly. He also noticed, that there was another one lying next to you, with flowers perfectly matched to you.

Without thinking much, he took it in his hands and placed it on your head, just as you had done before. Satoru tried to hide the blush that appeared on his pale cheeks, again this day. For that, you hiding your blush and sweet sigh proved to be impossible. Not when your heart was suddenly beating harder, you didn't quite understand why again. Perhaps it was the fact that Satoru slid his hands along your cheeks, gently stroking them with his thumbs, gazing at you intensely with his sparkling blue eyes. You put your phone down.

Definitely Gojo Satoru was enchanted by the sight. The sight of you flushed cheeks, slightly parted lips and beautiful eyes. You are so mesmerising. The thought crossed his mind that he wanted to keep such a sight of you just for himself.

So this is what Suguru must had seen every day.

He froze, letting go of your face. You glanced at him confused.

Ah yes, one of that thoughts.

You were Suguru Geto's girlfriend in your high school days. You were his best friend's girlfriend. Totally in love with each other, inseparable, always together. Satoru remembered it perfectly. He will never get out of his memory when you came to school together, at first as friends, you and Suguru were already inseparable. He knew that you both came from the same village. It was hard not to notice how condescending, affectionate and absolutely in love with you Suguru was. At least Gojo noticed it right away, you didn't necessarily. His best friend finally dared to confess his feelings to you one day and so you became a couple. The world's most oversweetened, loved, adorable, romatic couple. The amount of this love made Satoru want to vomit. Geto mentioned more than once that he wanted to marry you right after you graduated.

Oh, how fate can be twisted.

After the incident of star plasma vessel, even you were unable to save him. He knew that you tried but failed, he is sure that you are still blaming yourself to this day. The amount of pain the raven-haired man caused both of you was indescribable.

Still, Satoru couldn't get the thought out of his head that he was somehow betraying his best friend by being with you like this. You were Suguru's girlfriend. What is he doing here with you under such circumstances?

Well, that's right - you were.

Suguru was long gone, he knew that. You hadn't been with him for a long time. He broke your heart. He knew, he wasn't coming back. And yet, out of sentiment and out of some strange sense of duty, that one conversation had brought out of him, where the raven-haired had asked him to take care of you, as if something had happened to him. Satoru seems to have taken it too much to heart: by taking care of you for years, befriending you, marrying you and falling in love.

You were his wife now.

You went on dates with others, when you hadn't yet convinced yourselves as much. Everything around you and him screamed that you had come to terms with the situation. Although it took a long time, you had succeeded. He loved him too, in a way. You, in a slightly different way, even though he rarely admits it.

How could he think you had no feelings for him? He didn't know himself. At some point, he had already stopped deceiving himself, when he glanced at the obvious evidence you had substituted for him.

Heck! You even ended up with him for your fifth anniversary. He never felt so good in his life. He is He was asbolutely in love with you, that moment and that feeling. He could be with you like that every day. He wanted to feel vulnerable again, weak and absolutely susceptible to your touch and every feeling you evoke in him.

But he couldn't. He would have fallen impetuously into your arms long ago, for all the years you spent together, for every thing you did for him and taught him. He was so grateful to you.

But...he couldn't. Every time there come situations at which his heart begins to sing, there is also an image of you and his friend together - happy, in love.

And he felt like the total garbage of a person, when he experienced similar feelings with you.

Not because of you, but because of his sense of duty and the awkwardness of the situation. If you continue, as you are now, he will find it hard to control himself. He will end up clingy again, like on your memorable anniversary, and won't be able to stop. Really funny thoughts, considering how close to each other you really are.

Satoru moved away from you, leaning against the tree again.

"Do you miss him sometimes?" You weren't able to hide your confusion when you saw how he completely changed his tone and mood in a second. He removed the crown from his head.

He had to be sure.

"Who?" you asked, not knowing what had suddenly sprung to his mind. He just sighed, looking to the side. "I don't know what you're talking about, Satoru, I'm not sitting in the inside your head." You really hoped this wasn't going to be some kind of argument, that would ruin the good vibe you were so desperate to maintain.

"Him. I'm talking about him, (Y/N)." finally the cogs in your head came together. You sign.

"Ugh, do we really need to talk about him? I don't want to spoil the good times with you." you said laying down entirely on the blanket with a disgruntled expression, you closed your eyes. "I haven't thought about him like this in years, I want to keep the streak."

A long moment of silence passed before you spoke up "..but I've been thinking a lot about you, Satoru." The corners of your mouth lifted. He needs to calm down, he's an adult now and he blushes as often as a teenager.

You lay in silence with your eyes closed, trying to chase all unnecessary thoughts out of your head, repeating to yourself that you should focus on the here and now. You're not going to change the past, there's no point living in it.

After a while you felt movement on the blanket, you opened your eyes slowly, only to see his face above you, he was leaning with one hand over you, the other stroking your cheek. His crystal blue eyes were watching you again. He ran his thumb over, hooking the corner of your lips, making you part them. Why did you even let him do such things? You had stopped asking yourself that question for some time. It seemed somehow unnecessary to you.

"I've been thinking a lot too…" his gaze focused on your parted lips and the uneven breathing that was beginning to build in you, he moved closer.

"...and what were you thinking about?" you said it so quietly that it might as well have been a whisper. You also put your hand on his cheek. Warm, you thought, and noticed too. You looked at his lips.

He pressed his thumb against your lip making you bite down slightly. His hand moved from your face, down your neck, to your collarbone, eventually ending up as a support for him, right next to your head. He was even closer.

"I think I want to keep racing with you." His nose rubbed against yours, playfully, he began smiling goofily again.

Then he rose and stood up, as if he hadn't just given you a heart attack, shaking the remnants of grass off himself while putting on his backpack.

"So, shall we go?" his tone was the same as ever, he had already started to walk towards the bike, as you continued to lie on the blanket, blushing feeling some sort of need that had built up somewhere down.

----

The day was enjoyable.

You rode a bike, took beautiful photographs, had a picnic in a large meadow full of flowers. Just the nice calming things.

Satoru was surprisingly calm until your return home. That was odd. He still radiated a smile, but it was different. Usually he was broad, sometimes arrogant and confident, at times teasing, but this one was smaller, calmer. More affectionate, as if he was smiling half-cheekedly.

His eyes did not leave your side. Which was not new to you, he has a habit of following you around like a stray cat, crying for your attention. Now, however, it was not like that. He just stared, still smiling, responding calmly. Well, maybe not always, because when you were playing Mahjong in the bedroom, he was a bit in over his head, at certain points.

"I can't understand how you win in this game." You scratched your head while glancing at the board. The white tiles were arranged in patterns.

"And I can't understand how you can cook so well. What you prepared today was delicious." he moved the tile on the board.

It was quite late in the evening. A warm summer rain was falling outside the window, irrigating the fields of crops and plants. The sound of soft bells was barely audible from where you were. The two of you were sitting in the bedroom, opposite each other, at an undersized table, drinking tea that you had brewed quite a while ago in a small, decorative teapot. It wasn't long before you had dinner; before heading home, you managed to visit a small farmers' market near the centre of town. You bought all the ingredients and made it into something from an old recipe you got from someone you knew back in middle school.

"I'm glad you enjoyed it." you smiled slightly. The image of him devouring the dish you had prepared always touched your heart in some way. Especially since Satoru, never spared a comment describing the wonderfulness of the dish you had cooked.

"When we get home, please make it again, I think Megumi will be pleased too." his gaze stopped on the piece you had just selected.

"You just did a stupid thing." his voice was quite calm. You analyse a bit.

"I still don't know how to play this game." You paused for a moment from making a move to reach for the teapot and pour yourself some tea. His hands overtook you, lifting the teapot and pouring the hot liquid directly into your porcelain. You thanked him quietly, enjoying his kind gesture.

"Mahjong is a Chinese game, it's possible you might not have known it, it's not so often played in our country." He put down the teapot to the stand, returning his gaze to your face.

"I am not surprised by its presence in this house, even the porcelain we drink from comes from China. So is the owner." You glanced at his cup to see if you should pour it for him too, but the cup was almost full.

"How did you meet him?" he raised his hand to take a sip of cooling tea. You were surprised at how gracefully he does it, as if he has a habit of manners. We're talking about the same Satoru who sometimes played with his food, along with Tsumiki.

"I exorcised the curse that tormented his brother's house not far away. As a token of gratitude for saving his life, he said I could use his summer house. So I did. Although I really resisted it at first, I didn't want him to feel indebted to me. As it turned out, this is a man who feels indebted if he doesn't return the favour."

You pulled the night dressing gown tighter over your body. His blue irises fixed on the board.

"You always take care of others." he said it as if more to himself.

"It's my duty, besides, I like doing it." You lifted your cup up. He continued to stare at the white tiles on the board.

"How did you learn to play Mahjong?" you asked him, the cup clattering against the stand. He signed.

"When I was young, I played this game with one of my teachers." Satoru turned the plate in his hands, examining it from all sides.

"What was his name? What did he teach you?" the white-haired one said nothing for a long moment.

"I don't remember his name or where he came from. My teachers changed quite quickly, no one would stay to teach me for longer. My skills developed rapidly." A white plate rose up in front of his nose, began to rotate by his blue force, and he continued, "I remember him teaching me object control. In the beginning, he showed it to me on the tiles from Majhong, which is why I learned." The tile began to fall, and he caught it in flight. You began to wonder.

"Is there a teacher you particularly remember?" you wanted to find out a bit more about. It seemed pleasant to you, personal enough to get to know him at the same time, but distant enough to be safe.

"No."

"You haven't managed to build a relationship with anyone?" you asked softly, trying to catch his gaze, which was still fixed on the piece in his hand.

"No. My needs changed quite quickly, as did the people around me." he replied dryly, his uncovered eyes expressing more emotion than tone of voice.

You knew that Satoru had been pampered from a young age, spoilt, honoured, he had been so special that everyone had done everything possible to ensure he was looked after in the best possible way.

You were at the headquarters of his clan, you experienced the assessing gaze that measured your worth equally with your strength level. Satoru had the most of it.

You knew he had had a difficult childhood, it wasn't hard to guess. What you sometimes managed to forget through his playful and confident nature, was how lonely he was from the start. You weren't surprised at how much he was affected by his best friend leaving. And now, despite this knowledge, you shouldn't be surprised that he doesn't bond with most of the people he's met. Since he had always been put on a pedestal, it was hard for him to look for commonalities in people or look at their worth, regardless of strength. You experienced this yourself from his side. After spending years with him, you are able to conclude that he has changed that a bit in himself. This does not change the fact that it came with great effort on his part. He is a diffrent man, but still alone with his strenght.

"It must have been lonely." voice betrayed your thoughts, as did the compassion that slipped from your gaze.

Satoru rose from his seat. Instinctively, you reached out to grab him. Afraid that you somehow hurt him. You said something wrong, didn't you? You didn't manage to grab his hand, you were already about to start apologising to him, but he circled the table and found himself sitting on the floor, close to you, hugging you and pressing your head against his chest.

"Satoru? What are you doing?" you lifted your gaze to find his eyes staring at you.

"You said that when you are sad, sometimes instead of saying something I should hug you." his voice was so sincere, open in a way. You smiled slightly, surprised that he didn't understand.

"That wasn't…" he pressed you tighter against him, suppressing your urge to correct what you meant. You embraced him too, putting your arms around his waist and laying your head on his shoulder. You chuckled.

It finally clicked in your head why he did what he did. You couldn't hold back a smile.

You laughed in your soul, at how often you wonder if his touch is typically friendly, caused by years spent together, or if there is something more behind it. Knowing that his touch sometimes put you in a palette of different emotions.

Constantly reminding yourself that by definition you are friends, nothing more, was becoming increasingly difficult for you. Maybe because it was becoming more and more of a lie. At least on your part, you no longer knew how to look at him as a person with whom you only shared a bed and goals. You no longer knew, how to look at him other than as your partner. Hiding it often worked out terribly for you, so you stopped. You didn't want to hold yourself back anymore.

That was your situation. You knew Satoru wasn't the best at expressing his feelings. Often in difficult situations, he falls silent, doesn't know what to do, freezes in place. So you just give him time until he comes to you on his own sometimes. And when he comes, you hold him all the time, promising not to let go.

You are happy that he came to you with this kind gesture.

Even if you think his intentions are different from yours.

"If you want a hug, just do it, anytime, 'Toru." you started stroking his hair, the way he likes it best. You felt his body relax under your touch. White curls escaped through your fingers, soft and pleasant to the touch.

"I'm not surprised you're losing, your positioning is wrong. It's no fun, when you don't even know how to play." he said in his normal voice, then with an efficient movement he planted you between his legs, facing the board. He reached with his long arm for the tea cup on the other side and placed it next to yours.

He pulled you closer to the table, put his head on your shoulder and began to teach you, showing you, explaining everything. He made his movements in game using his power and you listened bravely and attentively to what he was saying. Although it was quite difficult when sometimes he nuzzled into your neck more, tickling you and distracting you with his warm breath.

That day, despite the obstacles, you learned to play Mahjong.

chris sturniolo x fem reader.

suggestive idk??? idgaf tho 😛

You and Nick had been bestfriends since pre-k. Attatched at the hip since crayons and numberjacks. 14 years later, youre both now 20 still going strong, with celebrity gossip, and a hot brother.

Obviously nick was a triplet wich meant as well as him, you had 2 more built in best friends Chris and Matt. You had always been closer to Matt than you were Chris, however, you and Chris were close in a different way. It was an unspoken relationship with him. Years of flirting, lingering stares, light touches and hugs that lasted just a little too long for best freinds, however no one dared to ever speak on it, and neither of you ever acted on it. ever.

When the triplets moved to LA you were devestated. You felt like a part of your heart was moving accross the country, however you were so proud of the boys, and cheered them on the whole way. They assured you they would visit all the time, and they would fly you out to la whenever you wanted, at the drop of A hat, which brings you to now.

Matt had picked you up from the airport earlier this morning, it was now closer to midnight and all 4 of you were in the living room watching a movie. You'd caught up with them all and got over the excitment of being reunited, but Chris hadn't really said much. The most hed said was a quick "you look good" ,but that was only for your ears, he had made sure to say it into your hair, almost silently, as he wrapped you up in his arms when you got back to the house.

Apart from that, he hadnt dared come too close in fear he might jump your bones there and then. He was losing it. He made sure to sit on the other end of the couch, putting as much distance between you as he possibly could.

Sure you understood why, buy secretly you wished you would get a moment alone with him so you could make a move. Unbeknown to you, Chris was just as desperate as you were. Something had changed between you both and it hung heavy in the air.

"Im gonna go clean up the kitchen, y/n come help me"

Bingo.

Your pov:

I smiled and quickly scurried off the couch and follewed chris into the kitchen, expecting to find him clearing up the mess we made, but i was pleasently surprised when a hand caught my wrist and pulled me to the side, causing me to yelp.

I was faced with warm blue eyes and a lazy smirk on his face. His body against mine, his hands on my waist, i could feel his breath on my face with the closeness.

All of the confidence i had earlier, talking about me making a move, was long fucking gone when he brushed my hair over my shoulder and moved his face to my neck. He left soft open mouth kisses on my collarbones and slowly moved up to my neck. My insides were screaming.

My breath caught in my throte when he moved his hands lower, hovering above my ass. "chris....matt or nick could see". My breathing quickened and my voice dared to let out a whine.

"Missed you baby". He said completely ignoring my paranoia. I couldnt help but let out an airy moan at the nickname. My hands moved up to his hair, and i tugged softly on it earning a groan from him. Gotcha.

His lips moved up to the spot below my ear that made me week in the knees. He lingered on the spot that made me shudder, biting genty, definetley leaving a mark.

I put one hand on the side of his face, pulling his head up so i could see him. god give me some self conrol. He looked so sexy. I couldnt help but let my eyes gander over his face, his cheeks were pink with need.

"Keep looking at me like that and ill show you just how much I’ve missed you". His voice was raspy and hushed. His eyes boring into mine. Fuck it.

I pulled his face down to mine and closed the space between us. His lips fit perfectly into mine. His hands moved down to the plush of my ass and gripped it, pulling me impossibly closer. I could feel everything on him. Everything.

His tongue fought with mine, running it acroos the roof of my mouth and the kiss became hot and heavy. Chris started walking me backwards, until my back hit the counter. He hoisted me up and pushed my legs apart so he could settle between them. I had one hand on his chest and the other at the nape of his neck.

His were everwhere, one hand going from the inside of my thigh, to under the back of my shirt. One loosly resting on my neck. He was addicting. I was i no rush to silece the whines coming out of my mouth, and Chris was welcoming them, swallowing them up with his lips.

He moved down to my neck again, licking a stripe up my throat. Im losing it. Im losing it. Im losing it.

His precence was suffocating me in the best way. All i could feel was his lips and hands all over me, he was in my head. My brain shouting his name like a mantra.

Chris. Chris. Chris.

Slowly he pulled away. Face still just inches in front of mine. I couldve died a happy woman right there and then. His hair was messy from my wandering hands, his breathing was heavy, his pupils were blown out, his lips were puffy and wet from my own.

"i shouldve done that years ago"

Yes Chris, yes you should have.

i need him like medically bro. MEOW.

[danganronpa-headcanons-imagines]

Hey this is literally my fist time sending a request ever. But can I get a kokichi who has a crush on a very flirty girl. In fact her ultimate is the ultimate flirt. But she gets even more flirty around kokichi because she likes him too. And kokichi i would think is kinda hard to fluster but at some point she finally does and shes so happy. Thanks. Sorry if this is just nonsense.

Yo, glad to be the first person you send a request to! And don't apologize, it's not nonsense. To be honest I prefer a longer prompt, as it helps lead me! ----------

Kokichi vs The Ultimate Flirt

The Ultimate Flirt, huh? Kokichi wasn't impressed, that's not even a valid talent either! So when he heard of your talent he just kinda shrugged his shoulders

The moment you entered the room, that changed. You were just gorgeous. And your voice? Something about it drew him in like a fishing lure. So the moment you approached him he was ready

Pretty much every person you talked to would eventually get flustered and clam up. Which after so long, has gotten frustrating. No one ever could just TALK to you anymore. Despite people praising the ground you stood on, you felt alone

But with Kokichi... he had bite. He wasn't falling at your feet or losing brain function, he actually had a discussion with you! You had someone you could genuinely talk to!

Actually getting to talk to you made Kokichi realise why you were so well liked. You were really funny and pleasent

After meeting you made an effort to talk to him as much as possible, both to your and his delight

Yeah, both of your crushes on each other only got worse as time went on. You were attracted to his headstrong attitude, and he was attracted to your wit and confidence

It didn't really process in your head, but you were eventually getting more and more flirty with Kokichi in an attempt to make him a blushing mess

But that is NOT easy. He was used to manipulation tactics, which are still evident in flirting techniques. Sure your words were nice, but they couldn't make him break

Everytime you used a line on him, he was able to push back without faltering

It soon became a little game of yours! You'd try to flirt, he'd flirt back, it was fun for you two and made you smile

But being the Ultimate Flirt isn't all sunshine and rainbows. A lot of people take advantage of you, or just do anything to please you. It wore you down over the years

But there was one day that just broke you. Long story short, you learned that half of your friends only wanted to fuck you. They didn't give a shit about a genuine friendship and were using you, which broke your heart. Kokichi found you crying on a park bench, and somehow felt himself feeling genuine empathy

He talked to you for over an hour, just listening to your issues and trying to cheer you up by offering to make their lives hell, making you laugh

Eventually you started to feel so much better. You could just feel that he actually cared, in his own special way

As you felt the last bit of sorrow exit your body, you sighed and looked deep into his eyes

"You know, being around you makes me feel better than ever. I know you said you have a hard time with relationships, but I feel lucky to have you. You should be thanked more often, so... thank you. Thank you Kokichi, for lighting up my life"

Neither of you ever expected it to happen, but suddenly his face turned bright red, jaw hanging open. His eyes were wide, darting around nervously, and he struggled to speak. It was like seeing a Unicorn, no one had ever seen it before, but you got lucky. The sight of his facade crumbling away was adorable

A laugh slipped off your lips and you couldn't stop yourself. After soooo long, so many attempts to crack him, you finally did it! And you didn't even mean to this time!

Kokichi pouted at your laughter, but his heated cheeks sold him out

After that day, you still flirted with him. But everytime he brushed it off, you loved to bring up that one night

When you officially started dating and told everyone, literally no one was surprised. Pretty much everyone thought you were already dating

----------

Hapy Brithday! John Dory x male Reader

Prompt: John Dory forgets your birthday

You woke up stretching, seeing as John Dory already got up. As you did your daily routine you got greeted happy birthday by Branch, and Poppy as usual. You never cared to celebrate your birthday before Poppy and Branch had to force you. So now you celebrate it "Thanks guys!" You thank Branch and Poppy after greeting you happy birthday. Poppy already had some many plans for your birthday Branch had to calm her down, you and Poppy were always friends. Even before she dated Branch, you two were friends, so when she was told by Branch you don't really celebrate your birthday she takes it upon herself to throw you a birthday party every year.

You walk outside just taking the freshness of air, you saw John Dory sitting in a bench talking with Clay, you go to them and greet them. John Dory then says goodbye to Clay as you two go on sbout your day, talking and being all lovey dovey. Once you two went home it was already 4pm, and you were pleasently surprised when Poppy, Branch, with Clay, and Floyd greeted you happy birthday "Woah thanks guys!" You say, blowing the candle and everyone cheering. While a John Dory sits their confused before realizing it's your birthday, he had completely forgotten but you couldn't blame the troll. It has been 20 years since you've seen eachother.

Least to say John Dory kept apilogizing to you after the party. You said "Look you don't need to keep apologizing. It's been a while since we've seen eachother, it's normal to forget birthdays" You chuckle, giving him a small quick kiss, John Dory replying with "Still I'm sorry. I don't know how I didn't find out" You say "Actually this is the second time I've celebrated my birthday since you left. It was thanks to Poppy who always threw me a party, anyways don't sweat about it too much" John Dory smiles and kisses you again This time long and passionate before pulling away. Hugging you "I'll make it up to you. I promise" he says "I'm sure you will" You say

A/N: Just a little quick one-shot I thought of.

[kittytheartist]

I feel like Aoi enjoys her relationship with Teru, though an odd one she never really thought much of, I think she values him.

I know she's very thankful for him saving her so she can continue to live, and through this she includes Teru in her life openly, expressing to Akane that he should also be nice and respectful to him after his generosity

considering Teru has had many previous conversations with her they've gotten to know each other regardless if Aoi wants to or not. Aoi even starts to notice things about Teru in the after school chapter without even realizing she's learning more about him

although she generally thinks of Teru as an odd and weird person but I think she feels safe around this sort of oddity. she claims there's no one who wants to genuinely get to know her, and yes I don't think she believes Teru wants to know her at all, but I think she tries to ignore and dismiss him because she feels a sense of honesty around him.

after checking if he's serious she openly responds, a short answer yes, but Teru doesn't mind and doesn't ask more, Aoi is shy and it's reassuring that he only listened instead of making accusations. this is a huge difference in Akane and Aoi's relationship compared to Teru and Aoi's, Akane is always saying sweet things about her that she does not get

the way Akane goes about Aoi is different, always saying things about her, but Teru does not, he asks questions and tells her about himself. this is a silent relationship building that is pleasant, although Aoi would never have acknowledged this if Teru wasn't the one to have saved her, it's pleasent nonetheless.

Aoi hates dept, she will pay it off if she can because she has such high ego of herself. after Teru mentions that she owes him she went ahead and made gummies

Teru did this to cheer her up in a way she can't refuse, he uses her fragile ego against her, in the best way possible. I think this is good for their relationship

all in all I think Aoi is quite fond of Teru

☁art belongs to me

☁artwork is made using Ibis Paint X

Maybe I'm crazy , maybe I'm weak

Maybe I'm blinded by what I see

You wanted a soldier but it wasn't me

Cause I could never set you free

So fly on your own

It's time I let you go

----------------------------------☁-----------------------------

Y/n is an angel bound to Heaven . Another pitiful creature....but she's no ordinary angel .Y/n has a secret .

She is terrified to leave The Garden of Eden . After the Celestial War she never once left that tranquil garden . To others , it seemed like she was a dove in a birdcage .

After he left , she never smiled not once .

After he fell , her wings became glass and shattered . After they were condemed , her heart broke .

" Belphegor ....... "

The h/c girl sighed , petting a squirrel while blue flowers surrounded her . The garden reminded her of home ....Heaven , before the war . Before Lilith died and the brothers fell . Before Belphegor left .

No longer an angel , he couldn't see her like he usually used to . No more napping near the grassy waterfalls , no more sneaking flowers into her h/c locks . No more ...... seing her smile .

The smile that always managed to lift his spirits .

He resorted to sleeping all the time .

Lazy . Immature . Slothful . Useless .

That's what he was being called but he couldn't care less because , it was only when he was sleeping that he could see the glow of your e/c eyes being illuminated by the sun's rays as they gently kissed your face .

It was the only way he could still see you .

" Y/n ....... "

----------------------------------☁-----------------------------

He sighed , a long , exasperated sigh that caught the attention of his older brother Lucifer and his friend, an angel , Simeon .

" He really misses Y/n , Simeon "

Lucifer sympathizers . You were like a younger sister to him . He noticed how Belphegor would be much more pleasent when you're around .

" Is there no way for him to meet her ? "

The man's red eyes softened at the sleeping demon to the side of him , slumped over the library table .

" There might be a way but I'm not sure . Y/n hasn't left the Garden of Eden since the war ended . "

" .....Why ?.... " , the two males turned around to see the blue haired male rubbing his eyes .

" ........ "

" ........ "

" Why hasn't she left ? She should be happy that the war is over . She should be married . "

They said nothing . The frustration of the violet eyed demon grew and the room .

" Your idea ? "

" His birthday is coming up ! Yes ? "

" I see . " , the eldest spoke with a smirk .

☁ A MONTH LATER ☁

" Happy Birthday Belphie ! ! " , everyone shouted .

The male was taken back a bit , by the sudden cheers and the fact that his twin decided to spend their birthday separately . Like since when ??

Mc and Beelzebub walked up to Belphegor and handed him a blindfold .

" .............. "

" WEAR IT !! " the two shouted .

After what felt like an eternity the man felt solid ground . As the blindfold dropped as Lucifer , Mammon , Satan , Asmodeus , Leviathan , Beelzebub , Mc , Diavolo , Barbatos , Simeon , Luke and Solomon . In that order . Smiled and shouted another Happy Borthday as they stepped aside , the large golden gatesopened and a figure walked towards him .

Instinct , he turned into his demon form .

H/c hair swayed gently with the breeze as e/c eyes sparkled with a longing for something or , rather , someone that was clearly evident . Two pairs of white wings veiled her back and her head adorned with a halo .

" Belphe - "

" Y/N I MISSED YOU SO MUCH ! "

The demon teleported to her , crying and hugging her tightly . The girl placed her hands on his face and ......... smiled .

That smiled made Belphegor's heart leap , he swore that he felt his heart do a backflip .

" I'm sorry I left you . I left and now I'm a demon . A mons- "

" You're still my angel . "

He pulled the h/c girl closer and kissed her . Kissed her like if he didn't, if he let go - even a little - the whole cosmos would end . The sun would implode and kill every living creature that God created .

Tears formed in their eyes , as they opened them simultaneously. Not even letting go of each other as the sun set behindthem , a hue of orange , yellow and pink streaks parading and painting the sky and the clouds pastel colours , giving even the best fantasy pictures ever painted , last place .

" Please............. I want you to - "

" Y / n ....you know ...Sometimes I envy the Sun's rays . For they can kiss you , for they can kiss you the way ... I wan to kiss you . "

" And with that , Y/n . I give you freedom to be with the one you love . Even if it is a fallen angel . I do not appreciate my child being sad . So go . Follow your heart . "

“Are we friends?” He has to ask, because he really doesn’t understand what’s going on between them. Michael is unused to having friends, unless you count his brothers which—feels very different from this, so he thinks he should ask.

"You've been nothing but pleasant to me, have managed to heal a...more grave wound then I thought, and actively cheer me up with lovely little gifts? I....would say that would make us friends, no?"

Alastor didn't hesitate to say it either. He had friends, but he wasn't used to....a nice friendship. Which is what he considered it.

Mimzy might have been an old pal from his circles when he was alive, but she often used him to bail her out, or take advantage of his power in situations she caused. It was never a visit to just.....see him.

The Archangel....seemed different. It was pleasent. Comfortable.

"And....I think....I've become quite fond of you, actually."

He lost a bit of the confidence he had initially all of a sudden, flustering himself a bit. He wasn't used to expressing emotions like this.

Was his heart pounding?

PART 2 :)

The room lights up and reveals the whole crew with party hats on and a few with party poppers. Luffy stretches and wraps his arms around Axl in a tight hug “Happy birthday man! I’ll let you have some of the meat Sanji made me!” He has a wide smile on his face as he lets go. Axl then feels a hand on his shoulder, Zoro. “Happy Birthday…” He quietly hands Axl a bottle of premium North blue sake and smiles a little. Sanji then bounds up from outside “I honestly hve the best gift of all, I prepared all your favourite foods for you my love! And if Luffy tries to eat it before you do…. he knows the consequences.” Luffy shudders. “Axl! My man! Happy birthday! I made you this little figurine of you. Hope you like it!” Usopp hands Axl a small figurine of the birthday boy doing a cool pose with a peace sign. “HAVE A SUUUUUUPPPPERRR BIRTHDAY AXL! I MADE YOU YOUR VERY OWN MINI SHIP, FULLY CUSTOMIZED FOR YOU! ENJOY!” Franky leads Axl outside for a bit to look down and see a beutifully intricate little ship. It was like the Sunny, but it had carvings of vines and flowers and it was made to fit two people. “The weather forcast says pleasent;y stormy. Watch out for messages in the sky!” Axl turns around to see Nami with her clima-tact and shooting up electricity to the sky. He looks up and see’s stormy clouds, but the lightning is spelling the words “HAPPY BIRTHDAY AXL <3” Before he can say anything, Axl is pulled back inside by Brook. “YOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO! Happy Biryhday Axl. i hope you can see as many panties as you need. I have composed a song for you called “The Great Adventures of a Great Warrior.” please enjoy.” Brook pulls out his guitar and starts playing an upbeat tune, it feels adventurous. Axl feels multiple hands on his back. A worrying amount. He turns around and sees Robin smiling at him kindly. “Happy Birthday Axl. I hope you enjoy it.” Robin hands him a book on how to identify different flowers. “AAAAXXXLLLLL WAAAHHHHHHHH” Chopper bounds up to him, crying, and hugs his legs. “IM SO SORRY I HAD TO IGNORE YOU TODAY WAHHHH BUT HAPPY BIRTHDAY!” Chopper hands him a small case filled with memorabilia and photos from all their journeys together. Axl looks around and sees his whole crew smiling and happy to celebrate his birthday with him. He feels like he could cry.“NOW! It’s time to blow out the candles for your cake before Luffy eats it all.”Axl looks to see a stunning, 3 tier cake covered in little fondant decorations and at the top was a chibi version of him sleeping.“I worked all night yesterday to make you the perfect cake” Sanji had his arms wrapped around Axl’s waist, smiling affectionately down at him. “Now lets light the candles!”The lights in the room had switched off and the only lights were the soft glow of the candles on the cake. As the crew sung happy birthday, (lead by Brook of course) Axl couldn’t help but feel so lucky that he had his crew. They were all so thoughtful and always there when he needed them. “Make a wish!” Axl closed his eyes to make a wish, then blew out the candles. Everyone cheered and the lights turned back on as everyone cheered and celebrated his birthday. What did he wish for? To always stay with his loving crew. ~The End~

Hope you liked it! (I tried I'm sorry)

[tower-girl-anon]

What are your thoughts with a composite;

Libra 0 degree Moon/MC/Venus with MC conjunct Venus (6 degree orb) and Moon (2 degree orb),

Chart ruler Gemini Jupiter trine Moon, Venus, Mars, Neptune, and MC,

Scorpio Sun/Mercury in the 12H while Squaring Uranus & also Mercury oppose Saturn/Jupiter,

Moon trine Mars,

Chiron & Pluto conjunct ascendant,

Venus sextile Chiron and ascendant,

Cancer NN in the 8H?

Super curious with your input! I love how you read astrology and I appreciate your thoughts! Thank you

Hello!! This are my observations of these composite aspects and placements:

Gemini as the Chart Ruler

You both give a sibling or friendly energy to other people who looks at you. There is a chatty vibe between the two, an indescribable intellectual connection, a humorous vibe in which it seems as if you were able to talk for hours without getting tired. Now, this is a mutable sign, so the vibe you transmit will depend on the occasion and circumstance.

Composite Venus sextile Ascendant

With Venus in an harmonious aspect with the composite Ascendant, other people will look at you as a pair who shows a natural affection towars yourself and others. In general, people will comment on how well you seem to look together and, due to the fact that Venus is in conjunction to the Midheaven (MC), many will look at you as lovers.

Composite Moon trine Mars

This masculine-femenine aspect adds a spicy tone to your relationship that may turn sexual in some cases. You both will cherish and protect the mutual feelings for each other and the emotional response or nurturing energy your Moon has will cause the arousal of an intense sexual attraction.

Libra Moon, Midheaven, and Venus in composite/Composite Moon and Venus conjunct Midheaven

Libra is the natural ruler of Venus, so this planet feels at home under this sign. It shows romance, respect, and loving energy towards each other; feelings that shows also the mutual need of keeping things balanced and warm which can be difficult at hard times. With the Libra Moon there is something similar to Venus. A care for each other well being, a need to keep things at peace and pleasent, which, as I've said about Venus, could be a problem at hard times since you will tend to omit some problems due to indecision or for keeping things calm. Now, with Moon and Venus in conjunction to the MC, it is clear to many of how much emotion and care you show out in public. The downside of this is a consciousness sorrounding other people's opinions or views towards the relationship. You could tend to fall in the wrong attitude of keeping other people happy, trying to pretend sometimes that everything is okay for them or staying in the relationship because others think you look great. Please be careful with this.

Jupiter trine Moon, Venus, Mars, Neptune and Midheaven

This are really lucky placement to have in composite in my opinion. Why? Because Jupiter is the planet of expansion and helps to ease any difficult placement that you could have. With the trine to the Moon, there is a mutual cheering, care or optimism when it comes abouth the emotions towards each other. You help each other to feel more optimistic and be happy again when one of you is sad. With Venus there is love and apreaciation in a healthy way. Gift giving may be one of your love lenguages. With Mars, depending on which house and sign Mars falls in, there is an increment on the drive to put action towards the themes that the house and sign gives to the planet. It brings also a healthy competition and sexual interest depending on the case. With Neptune, it brings compassion towards each other in a healthy way. You may forgive each other often with this aspect and it can also signal a deep telephatic/spiritual connection. With the Midheaven, it indicates luck or possible expansion in the work or career department.

Composite Chiron and Pluto in conjunction to Ascendant

There could be struggles sorrounding control, intimacy, and transformation with these aspects. If both points conjunct each other, there could be a powerful healing happening that could change both of your lives forever or, on the downside, create a powerful pain that will stay with each other for the rest of your lives. For others, you may look as a couple who has an intense presence (almost like a power couple) and an strong sexual connection that could look almost as a. Despite this, there is a conflict of power that could be apparent for some; a conflict in which it could be visible the pain you both suffer.

Composite Sun and Mercury in Scorpio in the 12H while Squaring Uranus

The twelfth house in composite house can grant a deeply spiritual connection or a very confusing one due to the subbtle influence of Neptune, which can create confusions or misunderstandings. Mercury in this house can grant a telephatic connection between the two, giving the ability to dig into each others psyche, their unconscious self, their relation to sex, taboo and their traumas. This is due to the Scorpio influence. You may shine a light into what the other is hidding within their behaviour, maybe you talk about it in a very private setting sometimes, but it can create conflicts with the squares of Uranus. Maybe one, or both, don't like when somebody tells the other some things that they keep hidden. Maybe the shared level of intimacy is scary and out of the ordinary. That's what I can think with this.

Mercury opposite Saturn/Jupiter

Mercury opposite Saturn is a very hard aspect in my opinion. It creates obstacles, because Saturn involves lessons, and difficulties when it comes about communicating with each other. Even more so with Mercury lying in the hidden twelfth house. There are things that are not being said, that's what I'm hearing. Could it be that there is some problems sorrounding work or health (in case Saturn and Jupiter are in the sixth house)? Because I just thought about a company in which you work together but, due to the company policies of not allowing partners to work together, can't be involved in a romantic situation. I sense a huge theme in this composite chart about power, intimacy, sexual and emotional connection, with responsabilities and work. Maybe can apply too with third party situations. With Jupiter, there is problems regarding the joyous nature of Jupiter with the intimate way in which you want to communicate with the other.

Cancer North Node in the 8H in composite

This North Node talks about a joint journey of exploring the intimate side of their relationship. To explore the emotional side of each other and what do you feel toward the other because Cancer talks about connecting with the Moon, the emotions within this connection. And the eight house talks about the intimate self that relates to our personal power, legacies, our aproach to sex and taboo topics. With Capricorn in the second house, were your South Node lies, talks about a past life in which both could have come together to build something. A business, a home, a family (that's why many believe that those who have this were married in a past life); anything. With Capricorn here, and Saturn sitting probably in the sixth house, it was probably for business.

I believe I didn't left anything unsaid. I hope these perspectives and analysis of the composite chart helps you in some way.

Send you lot's of love and light.

Haruto Suzuki’s first Voice Drama (Jigsaw)

E: Good morning, Haruto. Sorry to wake you up so early

H: It’s fine…..

E: Shall we get started on the interrogation?

H: Ok….

E: How’s life in Milgram?

H: Fine….

E:…..How old are you, Haruto?

H: T-Twenty….

E: *sighs* Is this another cold one? No…his tone seems more meek and shy than Kurosaki’s….he was just straight up rude….

H: Y-You okay?

E: Yes, sorry. Just lost in though

H: Mhm….

E: Is there anyone you’re close to here?

H: Not really….

E: No allies? Not even someone you speak to regularly? Or are you more of a loner?

H: I….I don’t know

E: You don’t know?

H: I think….I like being alone more….

E: Not a social type, huh?

H: I guess not…..

E: There really is no one?

H: Akari-san….she tries to invite me to things

E: Do you engage in those social interactions or no?

H: I don’t want to be rude….but it’s hard….

E: Hard?

H: Talking with others makes me nervous….sorry….

E: Tell me, what do you think of the other prisoners?

H: They’re all….kinda overwhelming….

E: Just go one by one

H: Kasumi, Mai, and Akari are kind

E: I see…to be expected

H: Other than them, Kousei and Masako…I sometimes talk to them….

E: What about Raiden or Asuka?

H: Raiden is an adult, so he scares me…but he’s nice. Asuka is nice too

E: And Daisuke?

H:………..

H: he makes me uncomfortable. Sorry….

E: I understand. Dealing with him isn’t exactly pleasent 

H: Yeah….

E: You seem tense. I’m only here to ask a few questions, you can ease up

H: S-Sorry……

E: Is something on your mind? You seem pensive?

H: A-Ah, do I? It’s just…..Daisuke-san…..he left the room smiling….awfully wide…..I was just thinking what happened that made someone usually so cold grin like that

E: *sighs* Oh that….well, if you must know, I slapped him for being uncooperative

H: Oh…….O-OH—!

E: No need to be startled. The dude is a weirdo that confirmed his pants got tighter. I don’t pay much mind to the garbage that comes out of that psycho’s mouth

H: Ah…..

E: Anyways, sorry about that. There’s nothing ‘fun’ about this interrogation

H: Y-Yeah…..um….is there anything else? For me to answer?

E: Well, anything about your crime. If you’re okay opening up about it. It would be nice to have some background information before I take a peek into your memories

H: Oh…y-yeah…that….I killed someone….

E: !!!

H: H-Huh? Is everything okay, warden-san?

E: You….just admitted it? Like that?

H: It’s true though. I murdered someone

E: That’s…..unusually cooperative 

H: Oh—

E: Don’t get me wrong. Compared to what seemed to be Kasumi’s mind games and Daisuke’s creepiness, you’re much of preferable to deal with

H: Oh, thanks….I guess

E: However

H: Hm?

E: This doesn’t mean I’m playing favorites or whatever. You’re still a prisoner that killed, regardless if you admit it so easily or not. It all comes down to what I see and deduce from your mind’s perspective about it all

H: Yeah…..I’m a murderer and there’s absolutely no excuse for it

E: Then why?

H: I…….e-eh?

E: Meek, untalkative, but polite….you almost remind me of him in a way. I still didn’t casually forget the fact he was a murderer though…..killing someone weaker and smaller than him to make it worse….I won’t make the same mistake again

H: Warden-san? Who are you talking about?

E:………………..Huh?

H: I remind you of….who?

E:…..Nevermind that. Just don’t expect me to let my guard down because you’re being cooperative

H: That….wasn’t my intention. Sorry

E: Hm, alright then. But this does raise one question just now

H: Which is?

E: You admit to being a murderer….*laughs* Why hold back? Why the shy guy act?

H: I….I don’t understand

E: Surely a murderer isn’t usually all shy and apologetic. Show me the real Haruto Suzuki

H:……I-I can’t…..

E: Eh? Why not? This is prison. You’re at the bottom of the barrel. Everyone else out there is a disgusting murderer

H: I…..there was a time where I was told I was cheerful and carefree……

E: Oh? My interest is piqued now

H: But…..I-it was wrong of me….to be so careless…..I have no right to be happy with myself

E: Oh you poor, poor thing….

H: A-Are you pitying me? It makes me rather uncomfortable, warden-san

E: I was being sarcastic

H: S-Sorry….I’m not very good with picking up on sarcasm or anyone’s sense of humor

E: I see. Hey, do you have any hobbies? Or had any outside of MILGRAM?

H: I liked doing jigsaw puzzles…and reading….sudoku too

E: If you liked reading, surely you would’ve picked up on idioms and jargon when it comes to social cues

H: Eh, you’d think that, huh. I’m more into genres like non-fiction, works that don’t use much slang 

E: Mhm….

H: I know….I’m a little boring….

E: Aside from the whole murder aspect, that is

H: *sharp sigh* Y-Yeah…that….I….don’t know what came over me….but it happened…..a-and I can’t go back and fix it 

E: What would you have done if you could go back in time?

H: Huh? I guess….not lose my cool like that? Just think?

E: A murder out of rage? That doesn’t seem like you to lose your temper. Your victim must’ve royally pissed you off

H: N-No! You have it all wrong. They didn’t make me mad. I was just scared….scared of them….

E: Scared?

H: You see—

(Bells chime, machinery whirls)

E: Right now?

H: S-Should I continue, or—

E: No need. I’m going to take a peeked into your memories now

H: Oh, alright. But warden-san?

E: Yes?

H: Forgive me, but….I’m still curious as to who I remind you of

E: It’s no one. Don’t worry about it

H: Are you su—

E: Yes. Drop it

H:…Alright, sorry

E: Apologies that I can’t disclose my personal life, nor story behind MILGRAM

H: Story behind….MILGRAM?

E: It’s nothing a prisoner should know about it. I’m the warden, you’re just a mere prisoner. That’s all

H: So confidentiality is why you can’t tell me?

E: That and…..ugh, just forget it. I have a headache

H: I’m sorry to hear that. Maybe rest after the interrogation?

E: I’d love to but I have Miss. Mai Akagi after I judge your memories 

H: Warden-san?

E: Another question? What is it?

H:….Don’t pity me….please….

E: You……*sighs deeply*

H: I don’t deserve hopes or dreams

E: Shut up! The only one who decides that is me, don’t tell me what to do! 

H: E-Eek! Sorry! I’m sorr—

E: Shut your trap! Prisoner number 3, Haruto Suzuki, sing your sins!

It had been a while since Dahra had been in FC. She and Sebastian had been busy traveling through Azim Steppe finding new prosperous options for Red Mist Company, and visiting promising training facilities in Kugane. But now when she finally back at the House she remembered how home it was for her. When everything else had been failing in her life, not by her own design of course, Red Mist had been there leaded by their charismatic head, Eiko.

Holiday season had been pleasently quite for most part. No new recruits, no new missions or task or even deliveries. But work had still piled up. So much even that head of the house Eiko had granted Dahra an assistant. It surely was a surprise too. Of course Dahra still needed to maintain a constant linkpearl connection with the dull girl, but she had someone capable of doing everyday tasks while Dahra was doing much more important work overseas.

But she did give the poor girl credit, that she followed her advices and instructions almost to the fault. Standing in empty House waiting to be called upon. Of course it was way too much to ask that she would know what to do in meantime when nothing speficially called Dahra's attentions.

"Have we already taken the holiday cheers from display?" Dahra asked. Poor girl almost frightenly shaked her head.

"NO, they have not. I told them and -"

"Nevermind, they're busy planning more important things than these, let us get to work then." Dahra waved at the girl and let her show Dahra the way.

"Well, we should start then!" Dahra cheered. She knew Eiko and their husband loved to decorate the house and throw parties, but both of them seemed to not care how everything got cleaned after. So, as usual, she let them have their fun and Dahra had her own fun. Orginising the decorations in boxes that could be stacked in neat organised piles and hid under the stairs. She labelled them, threw away the ones that were broken or teared and almost felt like smiling as she got all done.

The girl had gone back to desk after some low level customers came by and in her lonely moment Dahra looked around. She had been content to be travelling with Sebastian for a quite some time now. And it had been a bit bittersweet goodbye for a week or two when Sebastian had been asked to visit the guild in Ul'dah to get some extra training, maybe do some showfights in the city of gil.

"Did you manage?" Dahra asked when she came back upstairs.

"I did, customers seemed very jolly and some even -"

"That's good", Dahra said and stopped the girl from starting to dwell even deeper in the stories of nonensical behaviour of customers. When they closed the counter for customers, Dahra counted the gil they had in register and closed the thing. Hid the key with very weird instructions from Celes. And then, when she was ready to leave outside to check the gardens and see if there was anything she could do, she noticed more of those holiday decorations.

Oh the shame what she had brought upon them for she had not realized them sooner. And what had the girl said about the customers? They were suprisingly jolly? Some even... what did some even.

In silence after closing all the lights and saying goodbyes to the girl for the evening, she took the last pieces of decoration away from the walls. Finally, holiday season was truely over.

In garden, she plantted some shards for use and to make it look more efficient. It was better to make use of the gardens now that they had it.

After all was done, she rewared herself with a cup of tea in the privacy of guilds library. She still had a lot of books to go over. In her travels with Sebastian, she had found a bunch of different books about mysteries, treasures and magical arts and even more, that could be interest for Red Mist and some that offered some answers yet to be asked, riddles to solve and adventures to find.

And in the death of the night she penned a letter that she would deliver herself, if she was brave enough, to her mother now living in Azim Steppe with her original tribe.

Dreaming of the kind of tea they would make in the Haligtree.

A very rich, pleasent smell, akin to citrus fruits. But it's not the kind of tea you would casually drink, it's an entire experience, a ceremony even. Because when you drink it, it's too strong, it's bitter, makes you a bit uncomfortable only for a moment.. And then the most gentle and sweet aftertaste kicks in, it's so pleasent you can't help but smile.

This tea melts the ice between you and the one you're drinking it with. You both relate to eachother in that little unpleasant moment when you take the first sip, suddenly you're both making the same funny face expression. Also, "the tea sucks a little bit at first" is a great conversation starter.

This kind of tea cheers you up, without disrespecting your pain. You might be going through a lot, but this tea keeps the initial unpleasantness regardless. You might soften it up with sugar, or dilute it with water, but it won't bring you comfort if you're not ready for the uncomfortable part.

This tea doesn't exist, but I really want to take a sip.
