SSR Sebek Zigvolt - Nightmare Suit Vignette

"I'll tell you a story that may be of use"

[Halloween Town – Center]

Sebek: Hey, skeleton!! I brought what you asked for. Where do you want me to put it?

Jack Skellington: Thanks, Sebek-kun. Could you put it there beside the well?

Sebek: Beside the well…? Hey, there's so many things littered all around it! Like this, get rid of this basket right now!

Jack Skellington: Ah, sorry, sorry. I'll do that right…

???: You would like this basket removed, is it? Understood.

Sebek: Ack! Skeleton, move faster! Stop dawdling! Move that basket quickly!

Azul: No need to rush, I've already removed it. So please, you may place your items there.

Sebek: Urk… What have I just allowed to pass?

Jack Skellington: Hm? Is there a problem in having Azul-kun move the basket for us?

Sebek: A massive problem, yes! Urk, being in this man's debt is an eternal blemish…!

Azul: Oh, I wouldn't consider this a debt. That is, as long as I am given a fair compensation.

Sebek: You chose to move it on your own! I didn't ask you to.

Sebek: Who left that basket there in the first place? …Hm?

Sebek: Jack, doesn't that basket belong to Sally?

Jack Skellington: Ah, that's right. She filled that basket up with a few things and gave it to me.

Jack Skellington: Sally is smart and considerate… And just kind, overall.

Jack Skellington: There are times that I'll forget to eat when I get too into what I'm doing. The food she brought me today was as delicious as always.

Sebek: …Inferring from what you've said, it seems she brings you food often.

Sebek: If she doesn't have her basket, she won't be able to bring it to you next time. You should go and return it to Sally.

Sebek: While you're at it, what if you also let her know how you felt about her cooking?

Jack Skellington: Hmm, I guess…

Halloween Town Resident A: Heeey, Jack. I changed up the decorations based on what you said yesterday. Can you check how it looks?

Jack Skellington: Of course. …Yeah, this looks good! Please keep it up with the rest of the decorations!

Halloween Town Resident B: Hey, Jack! Taste this candy for me. I think it came out pretty good.

Jack Skellington: Let me see… Yeah, it's very delicious! If I were to say anything… Maybe it could use a bit more of a kick.

Halloween Town Resident C: Oh, there you are, Jack! There's something I want your help with…

Jack Skellington: Okay, I'll be right there. Just wait a moment.

Jack Skellington: I'd like to return the basket and give her my thanks, but as you can see, I've just far too busy.

Jack Skellington: And that's where you come in, Sebek-kun. If you could just return this to Sally and also let her know on my behalf…

Sebek: I REFUSE!!!

Sebek: …She is always thinking of you when she does this. So wouldn't it make more sense for you to go to her yourself to say your thanks?

Jack Skellington: That's true, you're right, but…

Azul: WELL, THEN!! You may leave the task of returning the basket to Sally-san to me, instead.

Jack Skellington: You're willing to do that, Azul-kun?

Azul: Of course. I couldn't possibly leave you in a quandary by yourself, Jack-san. I shall take this task on in the spirit of compassion.

Sebek: Wait! Jack asked me to do this. Don't just jump into the conversation like this… What are you scheming?

Azul: How could you possibly doubt me…? How rude to think that I could be scheming something. I only wish to be of help to those in need.

Azul: Specifically… to a hopelessly-in-love woman in need.

Azul: And thus, I have a proposal. I'd like for you to allow me to take on this task of delivering the basket. This would, of course, be considered compensation for helping you move things around earlier.

Sebek: .........

Sebek: Fine. I'd rather not stay in your debt, after all.

Sebek: However, I will go with you to go see Sally. I must keep a strict eye on you to make sure you are not planning anything nefarious.

Azul: Of course, I don't mind at all. Besides, you would come along even if I were to refuse, wouldn't you?

Jack Skellington: Uhh… So, the two of you are going to go together, then?

Azul/Sebek: Yes. / Correct.

Jack Skellington: You guys are a big help. Please give Sally a big thanks from me.

[Halloween Town – Dr. Finkelstein's Lab]

Azul: We've arrived. I wonder if Sally-san is currently home.

Sebek: Sally is helping make the dishes. I would assume she's in the kitchen…

Sebek: HEY, SALLY, ARE YOU HERE!?

Azul: P-Please don't shout like that all of a sudden!

Dr. Finkelstein: Seriously. I can hear you without you raising your voice like that.

Sebek: I don't remember calling for you, Finkelstein. Or… Is Sally not here?

Dr. Finkelstein: Hm, so you're here for Sally, is it? Well, you can't see her.

Sebek: We can't see her? What is the meaning of this?

Dr. Finkelstein: She keeps refusing to listen to me. I've locked her in her room until she comes to her senses.

Sebek: She's locked in her room…? I see, that's why Sally did that…

Sebek: HEY, SALLY! I'M LEAVING YOUR BASKET IN THE KITCHEN!

Sebek: I'm told my voice carries, so I'm sure she heard that. We're leaving, Azul-senpai.

Azul: We were not only entrusted to deliver the basket, but also Jack's sentiments.

Sebek: That can be resolved by him delivering the message himself!

Azul: My own credibility would take a hit if we were to leave a requested task half done.

Azul: However, it isn't as thought we would be able to force our way in… Seems as though we have no choice. We'll come again some other time.

Sebek: …......

[Halloween Town – Town Hall]

Sally: Good afternoon, everyone.

Sebek: Sally. Jack isn't here.

Sally: I see…

Sally: Oh, no, I mean. I didn't come here looking for him.

Sally: Umm… Oh, yes. I came to thank you for returning the basket, Sebek-kun.

Sebek: Hmph, ridiculous. I can't possibly be the reason you came here. But you know, if you keep it up with your roundabout ways, Jack won't…

Sally: Won't what?

Sebek: We should go somewhere else to talk. Follow me, Sally.

[Halloween Town – Alleyway]

Sebek: …I'm sure we'll be fine here.

Sally: What's wrong, Sebek-kun? Is this about something you don't want anyone else to hear?

Sebek: That's right. At least, you probably won't. …I'll be frank.

Sebek: If you keep acting in a roundabout way like earlier, you'll never be able to get your true feelings across to Jack.

Sally: Eh!? Y-You're wrong. I don't have any special feelings for Jack at all…

Sebek: YOU DON'T KNOW WHEN TO GIVE UP, HUH!!

Sebek: Have you forgotten what happened when Trey-senpai and I came to help you cook?

Sebek: You jumped out a window. At that time, you claimed that it was faster to do that than take the stairs…

Sebek: I realized that that the real reason was because you had been locked up in your room by Finkelstein. I heard him say so myself.

Sally: …......

Sebek: And while you were unable to move freely because you were locked in your room, you figured out a way to get out on your own.

Sebek: You did it just to see Jack, no matter how many times you crashed to the ground or your body fell apart…

Sebek: I haven't been here in Halloween Town long, and even then it's plain to see your feelings towards Jack.

Sebek: However, that man… Whenever he receives something from you, he just considers you a "kind person."

Sebek: I can't deny that you are, but… Do you truly think that you're treating him no differently than anyone else?

Sebek: Jack Skellington is too thick-headed. For guys like him, you need to tell it to him straight.

Sally: …Thank you, Sebek-kun. I know you're saying all this for my sake.

Sebek: No, I'm only doing this because it irritates me to no end to witness! Both your introversion and his thick skull are frustrating. And I hate how your effort has nothing to show for it.

Sally: Yes… I know it would be splendid to be recognized for my effort. But I can't tell him how I feel.

Sally: Jack is someone everyone admires. He is that Pumpkin King that everyone fears.

Sally: How could I ever stand beside him as his partner…? It's impossible. We're on two different levels.

Sebek: Ugh, just looking at you is making my blood boil. …Here, I'll tell you a story that may be of use.

Sebek: Back in my world, there is a classic story called "Omero and Lietju."

Sebek: With their families opposed to their marriage, two lovers plan to elope… But due to various complications, their plan ends in failure.

Sebek: They were separated and taken back to their respective homes, crying in the belief that they would never see their lover again… Is the gist of the story.

Sally: …That is a very sad story.

Sebek: Mm. However, this story is not simply a sad one. It also teaches an important lesson to those who read it.

Sally: An important lesson…? What is it?

Sebek: Those lovers gave up on trying to make their family understand their love. Instead, they decided to elope and leave everything else behind.

Sebek: I won't go into detail as to how their plan failed, but when it comes to the cause of their tragic end…

Sebek: It most likely happened because they themselves failed to communicate their thoughts and feelings to each other.

Sebek: If only they had shared with each other their plans… If only they had confirmed with their own ears the rumors being spread…

Sebek: It could have been possible for them to have a happy ending. The author of this story probably had specific morals in mind…

Sebek: I'm sure they wanted their readers to understand that it's "not worth giving up," and "communication is key."

Sebek: Maybe every reader out there would have their own opinion, but that is how I interpreted it, at least!

Sebek: Stories are born because we want to convey our thoughts and feelings to someone. And this author probably thought the same…

Sebek: Perhaps they once gave up on something and chose not to communicate it, which led them to some regret.

Sebek: I've read many more countless books, but…

Sebek: There are countless stories of similar tales in which a lack of communication lead to missed chances or conflict.

Sally: Heheh, I see you are a voracious reader, Sebek-kun.

Sally: If I don't give up… If I tell him properly… Would my hard work will pay off one day, as well?

[Halloween Town – Alleyway]

Sally: If I don't give up… If I tell him properly… Would my hard work will pay off one day, as well?

Sebek: How would I know!? All you can do is believe and keep at it.

Sally: Well, now… What a powerful statement. It seems you have a reason you're able to believe that strongly, Sebek-kun.

Sebek: My grandfather on my mother's side was opposed to my parents' marriage. My mother defied that opposition and married my father anyway.

Sebek: Ever since then, my mother has been earnestly putting forth the effort to gain my grandfather's approval.

Sebek: She'll send him letters with pictures of them, or the whole family whenever she is able…

Sebek: Or she'll bring us grandchildren to spend time with him during breaks, or invite him to dinner whenever there's a special occasion…

Sebek: I'm sure there are many more things she has been doing that I am not even aware of, as well.

Sebek: Still, to this day, my grandfather does not approve of their marriage… And yet my mother continues to believe.

Sebek: If she can just communicate to him that she's married the man she loves, raised a family, and is living happily…

Sebek: Perhaps one day, my grandfather will understand their love. That he'll give his utmost blessing to their union.

Sebek: Actually, I do think there has been some progress. Right after their marriage, whenever my father would try to visit him, he'd be turned away at the door immediately…

Sebek: But recently, there has been an increase in occasions in which my grandfather and father will be in the same room together. Although, even that only happens about once a year…

Sebek: And my grandfather refuses to make eye contact with my father and frowns the whole time.

Sebek: But that all came about because my mother would constantly tell my grandfather how happy she is. That is what I believe.

Sally: I see… So your mother is able to clearly state her feelings just as well as you can, hm.

Sally: But I…

Sebek: Do you still seek to hold yourself back!? But, well…

Sebek: I suppose I can't say I don't understand your worries and frustration.

Sally: Eh?

Sebek: I hold in high esteem Malleus-sama, who is the next in line to rule over my home country.

Sebek: Not only was he born nobility, but he is also a great mage who is world renowned…

Sebek: In addition, he is an amazing individual that I wholeheartedly respect.

Sebek: Every time I witness just how spectacular Malleus-sama is, I am strongly reminded of my own inadequacy.

Sebek: No matter how much I study, no matter how strenuously I train, I will never be worthy enough to stand by him, let alone alongside the other guard.

Sebek: There have been times that I've wondered if I am even fit to be of use to someone as magnificent as him.

Sally: Ah... I know that painful feeling well.

Sebek: However, even if you are inadequate or inexperienced, that is no reason to shy away from standing beside someone you admire.

Sally: …!

Sebek: I aspired to be of use to Malleus-sama.

Sebek: And he, in turn… Allowed me to stay by his side as his guard.

Sebek: Of course, I am still in training. I still lack the knowledge, skills, or experience to be an official bodyguard.

Sebek: However, if I hold myself back, or feel ashamed, then I won't make any progress.

Sebek: All I need to do is continue to put forth the effort while standing alongside the person I admire most so that I become someone that is worthy of serving him.

Sebek: Above anything else, I cannot stand cowardice and negligence!

Sebek: That's why, Sally, you need to put forth the effort. If you desire to stand beside the Pumpkin King, you need to show it with both your actions and words!

Sally: As long as I work hard, never give up, and communicate properly, my feelings may be recognized...

Sally: I think I get it. It might not be able to happen right away… But I will do my best to tell Jack how I feel.

???: Oh, is that Sally and Sebek-kun over there?

Sally: Jack!

Jack Skellington: What are you guys talking about? …All alone with just the two of you?

Sebek: Hmph, nothing that concerns you.

Jack Skellington: WHAT WAS THAT?

Sally: Calm down, Jack. Umm… I was just thanking him for delivering the basket.

Jack Skellington: Oh, it was just about that, huh! I was thinking I wanted to give you my thanks too.

[Jack and Sally chat]

Sebek: Heh, seems as though the day that Sally's hard work pays off is drawing closer.

[Halloween Town – Center]

Epel: Sebek-kun's being so loud again… And everything he's saying's so unneeded!

Sally: He just wants to make sure people fully understands his thoughts and feelings.

Sally: I bet that's why he's always using a loud voice, so that they can hear him properly.

Epel: Sally-san, don'tcha think you're treating him too nice!? I think it's just because Sebek-kun lacks any sort of delicacy, isn't it?

Sally: That's not it at all. Thanks to the courage I received from his words, I was able to take a huge leap forward.

Sally: I am so glad that Sebek-kun came to Halloween Town… And that Jack and I were able to meet him.

The Sound Of The Stars English Translation

PROLOGUE

Second year since ES has been established, late April

Dreaming, or suffering through Mika

Mika: MnyaMnya, Oshi-san, I'm here for you, through fire and water…

Auh! huh, huh….?

Wah…it’s so cold. I kicked my futon off me, didn’t i? I probably woke up cuz it was too cold

What! Why am I outside!?

No, no, this is bad I can’t go to sleep outside!

Maybe, I’m just dreamin’ anyways it’s cold I’m goin’ back to the dorm.

Arashi and Nazuna: Congratulations, Mika-chan!

Mika: Wauh! Naru-chan, Nazuna-nii, why are you guys here in a place like this together?

I don’t remember celebratin’ anythin’ together…..

Arashi: What are you talking about Mika-chan? Trying to stay humble?

No matter how much times I hear about it, I’m so excited to make my dreams come true…♪

Mika: Make yer’ dreams come true….. What are you talking about?

Nazuna: Hey,hey! Kagehira, are you sure you're not sleepy?

Mika: Well, is it the first exercise for idols?

It’s time to tell me what the hell is goin’ on, Naru-chan and Nazuna-nii…?

Shu: Kagehira, how much longer will you talk nonsense?

Mika: Oh! Oshi-san, it’s so good that you’re here with us~

Oshi-san do you know what everyone’s talkin’ about? I want you to tell me

Shu: Good grief, even in a situation like this you have no idea?

Even if it’s the opportunity to make your dream come true?

Mika: My dream?

Shu: How many more times will you make me say it? From now on, you're going to space and ‘take off’.

Mika: Hu..h..?

Shu: Look here, Kagehira. There’s a rocket made specially for you.

This is the peak of human knowledge that mankind needs to benefit from within the sky, as if a bird’s cage is the Earth ready to be free.

How much beauty do you think is beyond there? Well, Kagehira?

Mika: Eh…?

Was this rocket made by Oshi-san?

Shu: What are you talking about? Get a grip.

Mika: Ehehe, sorry Oshi-san. It’s pretty rare to hear you make jokes.

Arashi: Mika-chan, we’re not joking.

Nazuna: There’s no way Shu would make a joke like this~

Mika: …..

Eh! Am I really goin’ to space?!

Shu: You’ve been repeating that for a while now.

Kagehira, are you prepared to head to space?

Mika: No, no, No..! I’m not ready yet!

Oshi-san, yer makin’ some kind of mistake, am I in the wrong universe?

What the!? I can’t move my body like this, get me off this rocket ship!

Shu: Now that you;ve boarded the ship it shall be named ‘ ‘. You can’t get off now.

Well then, it’s almost time to leave. A journey across the infinite universe, enjoy the trip…♪

Now, begin the countdown!

Arashi: 5, 4…

Mika: Wait, wait!!! I dont want to go to space!

Nazuna: 3, 2…

Mika: Please, Oshi-san..!

I don’t want to say goodbye like this! Im…I’m still..!!!

Shu: 1, Blast off!

Mika: -----I don't want to be separated from Oshi-san!

Ritsu: Woah….. Don’t shout so suddenly

I thought I was gonna sleep in more this time~

Mika: Huh, huh…

Oh, Ritsu-kun?

Ritsu: Mornin’ Mikarin. Have a bad dream?

Mika: Bad dream…oh…it was a dream just now..

Ah~, I’m glad it was just a dream….

Ritsu: Must have been pretty scary, I was about to wake you up.

“I dont want to be separated from Oshi-san!” What kind of dream did you even have?

Mika: Wow, I was told to go to space out of nowhere, tied to a rocketship, and then separated from Oshi-san….

None of it made sense, it was scary

Ritsu: Haha, I didn’t understand any of that.

Heh, but I can’t argue that Oshi-san would probably say that

Mika: No, no! Oshi-san can’t say that!

And you need money to go to space right, Oshi-san wouldn’t prepare that much just for space.

Ritsu: Haha, a matter of money.

What;s more important is, what's the time Mikarin?

Yesterday I told you that Bara-chin called to meet

Mika: Eh…ah~ I completely forgot!

Sorry, Ritsu-kun! I was sleeping all morning!

Ritsu: Yawn It’s okay Mikarin just hurry and get ready

…..even so, can going to space in a rocket just be a dream?

I heard a similar story somewhere yesterday….

No, I did see an online article before going to bed…

Mika: Alright! Ready to go Ritsu-kun!

Ritsu: Okay~ get going

It was something about space travel, I only remember it vaguely..

Yawn Mikarin should be able to get there safely, and I need to go to bed…..

a/n this felt like a fever dream

The Hundred Line 1st Impression Session #1

Takumi Sumino

Not much we didn't already know about him before. It's funny how between the original Saihara, Yuma from Rain Code, and Takumi here, Kodaka has repeated what we can "the Saihara archetype" of Kodaka protagonists. I guess that will now be his most utilized protag type, surpassing "the Naegi archetype" (the Naegi siblings and Akamatsu) because Akamatsu only gets one chapter as protagonist. Meanwhile, "the Hinata archetype" (Hinata, Otonashi, and the Death Come True guy) is the most underrepresented due to DR0 and DCT being significantly shorter than his games.

Darumi Amemiya

Another one that was already covered at Tokyo Game Show. Not much new going on aside from the reveal that she's voiced by Farouz Ai (based based based based). She has potential to be great depending on how serious Kodaka wants to be about her manic depression.

One intriguing comment in her gameplay showcase is that Kodaka mentioned her attack animations are based on a Gilgamesh from another series, but he cannot disclose which series this Gilgamesh is from despite both The Hundred Line and the unidentified Gilgamesh's series both being Aniplex productions. Watching the animations, her attack remind me of Boss from Fate/Samurai Remnant, but Boss was never stated to be a Gilgamesh, it's probably not him. I guess it mustn't be from anything I know.

Eito Aotsuki

Komaeda II was also already covered at Tokyo Game Show, but today's display downplayed his Komaedaness and focused more on his pathetic desperation to make friends, and established his place in group dynamics as the one companion no one trusts because he's always making the cheesiest and most fake-sounding friendship speeches. He's also voiced by Sakurai (unbased) which further distances himself from the initial Komaeda impression.

Standout dialogue:

Aotsuki: Right, before discussing that, we need to introduce ourselves to each other. So, what are your hobbies? Any food you don't eat? What's your sign? Favorite manga? What club you're at in school? Do you watch a lot of movies? Play video games? What do your parents work with?

Takumi: Hold on, that's too much to answer at once.

Aotsuki: Huh? Oh... Sorry, good point... I don't really know how to interact with people, as you might have noticed. Sharing self-introductions feels pretty unusual...

Kurara Oosuzuki

Her intro dialogue has her explaining the dumb pun of her name, so I'm already intrigued to see what the localization will do about this one.

The super elite billionaire kid who thinks everyone else is trash is a character type Kodaka already did before with Togami, but they already prove themselves very different in their placement in group dynamics, as Togami is the guy who posed as a killing game player while Oosuzuki is completely invested in supporting the team. Neat stuff.

I hope Kodaka/Komatsuzaki commits to the bit and she never takes off her tomato. Ideally, they never even decided what her canon face looks like.

Ima Tsukumo

I wish authors would stop reinventing Yuri Briar. I already dropped Yomi no Tsugai over this.

CV: Ogata Megumi

Kodaka is trying to bribe me with good voice acting and it won't work.

Ima: Hm, this ketchup & mayo rice soup is banging. The oil levels in the broth rule!

Kako: My rice bowl with chocolate, banana, and chili sauce shrimps is great, too. I can't even tell if it's sweet or spicy.

Kodaka is trying to bribe me with ugly food and it will work. More of this, please. You have a real chance of making me like your creep.

Kako Tsukumo

The other twin. Her special subject is Morality, in contrast with her brother's special subject being Misconduct. We already got the explanation for what Misconduct does in gameplay, so her Morality is the only special subject so far that we know nothing about.

We already have an open statement that her story will be about learning that she can disobey her brother, so that's a plotline with a lot of potential already.

She's also a canonical fan of ugly food and detective fiction, so I can trust completely that if she were real and I hadn't made my Danganronpa V3 ugly food post, she would have done it. Thank you, Kodaka, I feel very personally homaged here.

Bells Will Be Ringing - Part Four (M)

Summary: Jin and Jeongguk come over for dinner, but do they have bigger things planned?

Pairing: Hybrid!Namjoon x Jimin x Reader x Jin x Hybrid!Jeongguk

Genre: Smut (this is basically pwp... I will not apologize)

Word Count: 10.4k

TW: swearing; dirty talk; oral (male and female giving and recieving); anal (male and female); fingering; double penetration; mmf; mfm; ; creampies; fivesome (i'm gonnna be honest this is 7k of just smut so read at your own risk)

You and Jimin work in sync, preparing braised short ribs, rice cake soup, and all the side dishes to go with. At 5:30, mostly everything is done, you’re just waiting for it to come out of the oven. Jimin sets the table while you excuse yourself to get dressed. You slip on a cozy, but slightly low-cut sweater and some jeans, adding just a touch of makeup and pulling your hair back into a bun before spritzing yourself with just a hint of sultry vanilla perfume. It’s ten minutes till six when you wake Namjoon, shaking him gently and asking him to get dressed. He nods, sleepily heading to the bedroom to put some clean clothes on, Jimin following close behind.

Just as you’re pulling the ribs out of the oven, the doorbell rings. You quickly place the tray on the stove and turn the oven off before making your way downstairs and opening the door to greet your guests. Jin and Jeongguk smile at you as you let them in, both of them giving you a hug.

“Y/N-ah!” Jin cheers, pulling you into his embrace, lingering a bit longer than he probably should, but you ignore it as you turn to the younger boy.

“Hi Jin. Hi Kookie!”

“Noona, you look so pretty today.” Jeongguk offers bashfully, wrapping his arms around you before you feel his nose on your neck, inhaling deeply the way Namjoon does. “And you smell so good.” He whines in your ear before he pulls himself away.

“Aw, thanks.” You smile at him sweetly before you lead them upstairs. “Um, ignore the mess please.” You gesture to Namjoon’s nest. “Someone has been uh…”

“Nesting?” Jeongguk questions, looking up at you with curiosity. You only nod, walking over to the kitchen. Jin hands you a dish of some dessert and Jeongguk places a bottle of wine on the table, the younger boy's eyes constantly flicking over to the pile of blankets and pillows in the living room, his nose occasionally lifting to sniff the air, tail swishing behind him.

Jin pulls you aside and whispers in your ear. “So Namjoon is…?”

“Since Christmas night.” You state.

“Is… Is this a good idea?”

“He told me he could handle it.” You shrug. Before Jin can say anything else, Jimin and Namjoon appear from the bedroom.

“Jeonggukie, Jin hyung, I’m glad you guys could make it!” Jimin smiles warmly, giving them both a hug.

“Jeonggukkie!” Namjoon cheers, tail wagging happily as he runs over to the younger boy, quickly wrapping him in an embrace as they sniff each other.

“W-wow hyung, y-you smell good.” Jeongguk mumbles, ears twitching on top of his head as he lets Namjoon go, probably overwhelmed by the scent Namjoon’s body is giving off. They begin whispering to each other, and you wonder what they’re talking about as they keep stealing glances at you, Jin, and Jimin.

“Are you guys ready to eat?” You ask, grabbing the corkscrew out of the drawer. Everyone nods in agreement and sits down at the table.

You all enjoy dinner, eating while laughing and telling stories, reminiscing on old times. You watch Namjoon carefully as he fidgets in his seat, but true to his word, he behaves, and doesn’t try anything through the meal, only occasionally squeezing himself under the table for a moment of relief and then taking a deep breath to calm himself down.

You study him and Jeongguk carefully, observing their gentle touches, the way their hands brush and both of them immediately pull back and blush. It’s cute. Or at least it would be, if you didn’t know Namjoon was pulling away to avoid thinking about bending Jeongguk over the table. Your face flushes at your own thoughts, and you realize the wine must be getting to you.

“Noona?” Jimin places his hand over yours, bringing you back to the room. He must’ve asked you a question.

“Hm? Sorry.”

He giggles. “Jin asked to see your ring.”

“Oh, of course.” You turn to the man on your right and offer your hand out to him, the ring flashing in the light.

Jin takes your hand, gingerly holding it as he inspects the ring, letting out a hum of approval. “Is that one of the things you picked up the day we had lunch?” You nod, taking your hand back. “Very pretty. Speaking of, did you ever try that other thing you bought?” He smirks.

“Not yet.” You huff, shooting him a glare.

“Shame.” He shakes his head. “That was pretty too.”

You roll your eyes. “Have some more wine, Seokjin.”

“What thing, noona?” Jimin questions, suddenly curious.

“Ah, nothing Chim, I’ll show you later.” You wink at him and he nods excitedly.

You stand and walk over to the fridge, feeling Jin’s eyes on you the entire time as you take the dessert he made, some sort of tiramisu, out of the fridge and dish it out onto five plates. Sure enough, as you turn around, Jin is watching your every move, his hungry eyes following the curves of your body. Jimin gets up to help you serve and Jin leans back to take an obvious look at your ass as you place his plate in front of him. Why did you wear such form fitting jeans? Namjoon is too focused on his conversation with Jeongguk, but Jimin notices Jin’s behavior, tugging you over to whisper in your ear as you walk past him.

“Are you okay? Do you want me to ask him to stop?”

You shake your head. “He’s just being Jin, I’ve got it.”

You place your plate on the table and sit back in your seat, taking a bite of your dessert as you kick your leg out, hitting Jin in the ankle as you do, tossing him a knowing look. He simply shrugs, his eyes finally leaving you, and turning to the sweet treat in front of him.

You all sigh contentedly as you finish your meals. Leaning back in your seat, you admire your boys, loving seeing them so content, both of them smiling brightly and giggling at something Jeongguk said. Your heart swells with happiness until you chance a glance over at Jin, who’s gaze has returned to your body, making your face flush with an unwelcome heat.

You quickly move to gather the dishes, standing up and carrying them over to the sink, but Jin volunteers to help, and how can you say no. He follows you, standing close, too close; close enough that you swear he can hear your heart thumping in your chest.

“So, when does the real party start?” He whispers, his breath skimming your ear from his proximity.

“What are you talking about?” You check to see if any of the others are listening, but they’re focused on their own conversation.

“You know,” One of Jin’s hands squeezes your waist for the briefest of moments before returning to the dishes in front of him. “The reason Namjoon invited us over here.”

“He invited you for dinner, that’s it.” You state, rinsing a plate.

“That’s not what Jeongguk told me.”

“Well what did he tell you then?”

Jin smirks, handing you another plate. “Kook said Namjoon finally confessed wanting to sleep with him, and tonight is supposed to be the night they agreed on.”

You scoff. “If that was true then why are you here?”

“Same reason you are. Moral support.”

“What?”

“Namjoon’s stipulation was that you and Jimin were involved, Jeongguk’s stipulation,” He pauses to lick his lips, “Is that I am too.”

Your mouth opens to protest, but when you look over at the three boys at the table, it all makes sense. How Namjoon was so excited he couldn’t wait for you to wake up this morning; the way Namjoon and Jeongguk have been looking at each other, and have been gently touching each other all night; even the way Jimin is flirting so hard with Jeongguk. Not to mention the way Jin’s been staring at you, his lingering touches; you’ve even seen Jeongguk steal a few glances at your chest; staring a bit too long before immediately averting his eyes.

They all feel it.

They all know.

The only one that doesn’t… Is you.

Jin watches the realization set in on your face and smiles. “You really had no idea. You thought this was just dinner, didn’t you?”

Your heart beat picks up, realizing that sure, they’re all here for a meal, but part of the meal is you.

“Joon!” It comes out more scolding than you mean, and you watch Namjoon’s head whip towards you as the room falls silent, his ears flattening on top of his head like they do when he’s in trouble. “Can I talk to you in the bedroom for a moment?”

“O-Of course.” He nods, treading carefully as he gets up out of his seat and follows you into the bedroom where you slowly close the door before turning to him.

“You said this was just dinner.”

“Hm?” His tail droops behind him. “I-”

“You told me earlier that you just wanted to be nice and invite our friends over for dinner, didn’t you?”

“Y-yes, but-”

“But this is something else, isn’t it?”

“Y/N-”

“Isn’t it?”

Namjoon huffs, placing his hands on your shoulders and squeezing them to calm you down. “Listen to me,” He coos. “Nothing is going to happen unless you’re okay with it, alright? Yes, I confessed to Jeongguk, and we wanted to do something tonight, but,” He emphasizes the last word. “We decided to just have dinner and talk about it, maybe see where things went. We want to make sure everyone is comfortable with it before anything happens.”

“But Jin-”

“I didn’t know Jin was going to be a part of it until Jeongguk told me before dinner.” Namjoon interrupts you. “Jin is to Jeongguk what you and Jimin are to me, okay? He’s just here to help Jeongguk feel more comfortable.”

As much as you hate the thought of finally giving in to Jin’s advances, you understand how Jeongguk feels. You let out a deep sigh. “Okay.”

“Okay?”

You nod, repeating the word. “Okay. I’m sorry I overreacted.”

Namjoon smiles at you before wrapping you in his arms. “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you in the first place, but honestly I forgot until you mentioned it before lunch.”

“I love you, Joon.” You mumble into his chest.

“I love you too Y/N-ah. Are you ready to go back out?”

“Ah I’ll be right there.” You nod, watching as Namjoon leaves. When the door shuts behind him, you sigh, readying yourself for what’s to come the rest of the night. You know it will happen, you’re surprised Namjoon has been able to wait this long honestly.

You walk into your closet, shedding your sweater as you do and opening the top drawer of your dresser. You pull out the lingerie set that Jin helped you pick out and smile. You guess he will get to see you in it after all. You put the bra on first, trying to figure out how to tie the ribbon across your breasts. Once you’ve got it, you undress the rest of the way and then slide the ruffled panties up your legs before shimmying the thigh highs up as well. When you’re done, you take a look at yourself in the mirror. Damn. Jin was right, this looks good together.

Satisfied, you slip your jeans and sweater back on over the lingerie, making sure you can’t tell what’s underneath, and then head back out to the dining room where the four boys are waiting for your return.

“Everything okay?” Jimin asks, concerned.

“Sorry,” You offer as you sit down at the table. “Just needed to clear something up.” You take another sip of your wine as you look at each of their faces, seeing the eager nervousness on each one, except for Jin, his expression is relaxed, almost blank if it weren’t for the small twitch of his lips.

“So,” Namjoon mutters, drumming his fingers on the table in the sudden awkward silence.

“So.” Jin repeats, chugging the last of his wine before smiling mischievously.

“Before anything happens,” You begin. “We should talk about this a bit, at least set a baseline of rules or something.”

“Rules?” Jeonggguk looks at you with wide eyes.

You nod. “Like, is there anything that we should know about you? Anything you prefer? For instance, I’m on birth control, s-so,” Your voice squeaks. You didn’t think it was going to be this hard to talk about with them. You clear your throat and try again. “So cumming inside me is fair game.”

“I-Inside?” Jeongguk mumbles, more to himself than anyone else as he bites his lip ring.

“I think condoms are a good idea if you’re not going to wash in between.” Namjoon adds.

“I don’t bottom.” Jin states, leaning back in his chair.

Jimin snorts. “We can change that.”

“We’re all switches,” You add before Jin can respond. “Namjoon tends to be more dominant when he’s in heat though. And I can take it in- uh, in both.”

“Talented.” Jin smirks.

“What about you Kook?” Jimin turns the attention to the youngest, who immediately flushes.

“M-me?” He swallows hard, looking from Jimin to Namjoon to you. “I-I like both t-too.”

“Anything else?” Namjoon encourages him, but Jeongguk just shakes his head.

“Okay, that’s okay. It’s a good start at least.” You assure him. “Now, no pressure at all tonight, okay?” You look at each of them in turn. “Movie?”

You pull Namjoon aside and tell him that if he isn’t comfortable with it yet, to grab you or Jimin and you’d take him to the bedroom to help relieve him. Ten minutes later you’re all laying in Namjoon’s nest, watching the beginning of some movie you don’t think anyone is actually paying attention to; you’re all focused on not getting too close to one another.

Somehow you ended up between Jimin and Jin, Jeongguk on Jin’s other side, and Namjoon on the opposite end next to Jeongguk. Jimin is snuggled up at your side, and you’re about as far away from Jin as you can get without making it obvious how nervous you are about being there. You’re worried, because you and Jimin are so separated from Namjoon, but you have to stop thinking about it. If he needs you, he’ll tell you.

Jimin rubs your arms soothingly, probably able to feel how fast your heart is beating from where his head rests on your shoulder. After a few minutes, you begin to relax, the wine having a calming effect on you, but you shouldn’t have had so much, as your eyes quickly get heavy while you lay there, finally feeling comfortable. Fighting it is no use, and you quickly fall into a light sleep, the movie disappearing behind your eyelids.

You wake with a jolt, looking up to see the movie is only halfway through. Good, so you didn’t sleep for too long. You stretch, snuggling against whoever’s chest you’re laying on until you realize, it isn't one you recognize. You sit up on your elbows, face to face with Jin.

“Morning sunshine.” He chuckles.

“Ah, J-Jin!” You squeak.

“Hey, I kept my hands to myself.” He states, shrugging, showing you that his arms are in fact, crossed behind his head, the action causing his shirt to ride up a bit, offering you a glimpse of his toned stomach.

“Sorry.” You mumble, pulling your hands back to yourself.

“Can’t say the same for them though.” Jin whispers, nodding his head to the other side of him.

You raise your eyebrows in question before you and Jimin both sit up, looking past Jin to see Namjoon and Jeongguk tangled together and aggressively making out, growls leaving the both of them as they fight for dominance.

“Wow…” You gasp.

“Took about fifteen minutes.” Jin states.

“Damn.” Jimin huffs behind you, his arm snaking back around you. You suddenly realize that you’re staring, and shake your head, sinking back into Jimin’s embrace. “That’s hot.” Jimin mutters in your ear.

You giggle, turning your head to face Jimin. “I swear you’re easier to turn on than Joon.”

“Oh, come on. You can’t tell me you don’t feel anything looking at that.” Jimin’s hand slides down your side, squeezing your waist. Of course you do, watching your husband slide his tongue into Jeongguk’s mouth made you want to crawl over Jin’s body and insert yourself into the situation, but you also want them to have their moment, so you keep your legs shut in case either of the two hybrids, one of whom you know has a heightened sense of smell right now, could sense your arousal.

You lie down on your back with a small sigh, trying your best to focus on the movie in front of you. It’s hard. Almost as hard as Jimin’s length pressing into your side. Almost as hard as Jin, watching out of the corner of your eye as he adjusts himself in his jeans. Suddenly a loud whimper comes from the other side of Jin, and the three of you sit up to see Jeongguk’s head thrown back in pleasure and defeat as Namjoon places his customary first bite on the younger boy’s collarbone, having apparently won the dominance dispute.

You watch as Namjoon crawls on top of Jeongguk, his lips latching to Jeongguk’s neck as Namjoon rubs their hard cocks together, separated only by the fabric of their jeans, both of them letting out low whimpers at the feeling.

Jimin whines. “Oh my-”

“God,” Jin finishes the thought for him, his own erection now painfully obvious in his jeans as Jimin pulls your ass back against him, pressing up against you for some sort of relief. Well, you suppose now is as good a time as any. You reach a hand out and place it on Jin’s chest, causing his head to whip in your direction. His gaze meets yours, hunger in his eyes as you grip his shirt and tug him towards you.

Jin follows your lead immediately, rolling towards you, laying as close as he can without touching you as he looks between you and Jimin. You let go of his shirt, sliding your hand up his chest, trailing your fingers over his neck before cupping his cheek. He meets your gaze once again, asking for permission. You give him a small nod and a smile, rubbing your thumb across his cheek as Jimin squeezes your waist. Jin leans close, his lips brushing yours for a moment before you close the distance.

Jin’s lips are plump and plush like Jimin’s, and as they caress yours it feels good, it feels right. All the build up of your friendship, and the playful arguing and fighting finally culminating into this first kiss. Your hand slips around to the back of his neck and you pull him closer, wanting his body pressed against yours like Jimin’s is on the other side.

You feel Jimin’s lips on your neck, his hands slipping under your shirt and spreading across your bare stomach, and Jin’s hands quickly join them, finding your waist and then wandering around to your ass, giving it a harsh squeeze as he bites down on your lower lip, tugging it into the warmth of his mouth and sucking on it lightly. You whine into Jin’s mouth as Jimin bites down on your shoulder, having tugged your sweater to the side. Jin pulls back at the sound, surprised, his cheeks flushing pink from obvious arousal.

Jimin takes the opportunity to roll you onto your back, his lips covering the exposed expanse of your neck and shoulder with kisses as Jin immediately mimics his movements on the other side. The feeling of them both licking and sucking on your skin has you squeezing your legs together, small whimpers leaving your mouth unobstructed as their hands grab at every inch of your body.

Jin finds your breasts, gripping them in turn over your sweater as Jimin pops open the button of your jeans and tugs the zipper down, his hand ghosting your waist. Jin’s hand, on the other side, slithers down your body, finding your jeans have already been opened as he plays with the waistband of your panties, pulling back to look at you, making sure it’s okay. You nod, almost frantically, and he smirks, quickly slipping his hand under the fabric and dipping his fingers into your folds.

“Oh shit…” Jin curses, feeling just how wet you are. Jimin slides his hand back up under your sweater, grabbing one of your breasts directly and squishing it tightly before pulling his face out of your neck.

“Jagi, what bra are you wearing?” He asks, his fingers playing with the unfamiliar fabric, feeling your bare breasts beneath the ribbon.

“Jimin, look.” Jin grabs his attention, pulling his hand out from between your legs and showing the younger boy your juices as they glisten on his fingers.

“Noona, already?” He teases, before taking Jin’s fingers into his mouth with a groan. “So good.”

“Like you’re one to talk.” You state, reaching a hand down and squeezing Jimin’s length over his jeans, making him gasp as Jin pulls his fingers out of Jimin’s mouth.

“Noona…” You look up at Jimin, but he’s not the one that said it. You turn your head, looking past Jin to see Jeongguk and Namjoon both staring at you in various states of undress, licking their lips, they must have finally smelled your arousal.

When Jin and Jimin put their hands on you, you stopped paying attention to the hybrids, but you see Namjoon’s shirt has been discarded, Jeongguk’s shirt is pushed up, exposing his stomach, and both of their jeans are undone, Jeongguk’s hard cock poking through his boxers and laying against his stomach.

“Noona, J-Jimin hyung~” Jeongguk whines again, scrambling to get out from under Namjoon’s body and clamoring over to Jin’s side, his gaze flicking between yours and Jimin’s. Namjoon appears at your feet, tugging you up into a sitting position as Jimin grabs Jeongguk’s hand, pulling the younger boy toward him and immediately planting his lips on Jeongguk. You’re amazed at how easily Jeongguk gives in to Jimin’s kiss, practically melting into his arms.

Namjoon wastes no time, yanking your jeans down your legs, but stumbles at what he finds, his eyes going wide at the sight of the red thigh highs and matching panties.

“What’s this?” He asks, rubbing your calves. You only smirk, sitting up on your knees before pulling your sweater off over your head, letting him see the entire outfit. “Oh, fuck…” Namjoon groans, hands tracing along your curves.

“This was the other thing I bought.” You explain. “When I was with Jin.”

At the mention of his name, Jin turns his gaze from Jeongguk and Jimin, toward your body, taking in the sight of your lingerie. “Oh my god, you actually wore it?” Jin’s hands join Namjoon’s on your body, turning you toward him. “Stand up for a second?”

You roll your eyes but obey, standing and taking your hair out of the bun, shaking it out and catching the attention of Jimin and Jeongguk, breaking their make out session, Jimin’s hand still wrapped firmly around Jeongguk’s length as they both take in the sight of you.

“Wow jagiya…” Jimin gasps, squeezing Jeongguk in his hand.

“Holy hell.” Jeongguk’s eyes are wider than usual as they rake over your form, a whimper coming from his throat as you turn away from them and bend over slightly, showcasing your ass.

“It looks even better than I imagined.” Jin says as Namjoon tugs you back down on the blankets. “Have I ever told you how great your ass is?”

“Several times. Creep.” You giggle, pulling Jin toward you.

“You bought it right in front of me, did you really think I wouldn’t think about it?” Jin scoffs. ”You’re such a tease.” Before you can retort, you feel Namjoon’s hand on your back as he pushes you down onto all fours, his hands caressing the flesh of your behind before tugging your underwear down your legs and tossing them on the floor, his breath on your center shortly after.

“Joon- Ah~!” You moan as Namjoon’s tongue flicks out to taste you, groaning as he does. You fall onto your forearms, arching your back and sticking your ass high in the air as Namjoon’s mouth attaches to your center. Your head falls forward until you feel someone lift your chin, and you look up to see Jin on his knees in front of you. “J-Joon, lay down.” You ask, stopping his ministrations against you.

“Hm?” He looks at you as you sit on your knees.

“Let me sit on your face.”

“Oh fuck.” Namjoon and Jin both groan at the same time. Namjoon obeys, laying down on his back and tugging your hips over his face, planting you firmly on his lips as his tongue starts working you again. You gasp, grabbing his hair as the sensation fills you.

When you are able to steady yourself, you pull Jin toward you, latching your lips back to his, more aggressively this time, your tongue flicking out to taste him. He grants you access and you slip it past his lips, pressing against his tongue for the first time. You groan into his mouth; he tastes sweet, like wine and whipped cream. Your hands let go of Namjoon, one of them sliding up into Jin’s hair, the other working at the button of his jeans.

You swallow the sound of Jin’s gasp as you brush against his length for the first time. You quickly tug his zipper down and slip your hand into his pants, grabbing his length over his boxers, obsessed with how big it feels in your hand, causing Jin to break the kiss as his head falls back.

“Lay down.” You growl, pushing Jin back onto the blankets. He listens, scrambling to lay down in front of you, his eyes watching you carefully when a loud moan comes from your left. You both look over to see Jimin has Jeongguk in a similarly compromising position, bent over in front of him, clothes already gone, Jimin’s face buried between the younger boy’s cheeks as he ravages Jeongguk with his talented tongue. Jeongguk’s eyes are squeezed shut, fully concentrated on the pleasurable feeling.

Jin’s cock throbs under your touch at the sight, and while he’s distracted, you take the opportunity to tug his jeans and boxers down, releasing his length for you to see for the first time. Your mouth drops open in want at the sight of it, he’s almost as thick as Jimin, and definitely longer than Namjoon. You realize he has every right to be as confident as he is. Your body aches at the thought of having it inside you, and Namjoon must notice, because at that moment he drags his tongue across your clit and shoves two fingers into your entrance, causing you to jump with surprise, letting out a whine.

You take Jin’s length in your hand and stroke it slowly, bringing his attention back to you, his lips parting as he moans low in his chest. “Fuck, Y/N-ah…”

You adjust yourself over Namjoon, leaning down on your elbows in front of Jin as you trail your fingers along his length, making him shiver. You finally take him into your mouth and Jin hisses through his teeth, watching you closely as you suck on his tip, your tongue flicking against it as you search for sensitive spots. You alternate between two, digging your tongue into his slit and pressing it against the underside of his pronounced ridge. You tease him relentlessly, not letting any more of him into your mouth until he’s whimpering, loving the control you have over him.

Just when you think he’s about to lose his mind, you sink your mouth down onto him, taking as much of him in as you can as Jin’s hands find your hair, gripping it tightly as he guides you, up and down, deeper and deeper as your tongue traces along his shaft. Once you get him significantly wet, you decide to try your best at deep throating him, knowing his length is going to be difficult, but you love a challenge.

You suck his tip for a bit first before taking a deep breath. You relax your throat and slide down his length, burying Jin in the back of your throat, groaning at how deep he goes and making yourself choke.

“Ah~ hah~” Jin pants as you pull off of him, coughing. “Are you okay?”

You nod, forcing your lungs to breathe again. “I’m good. Just got too into it.” You chuckle, hand still wrapped around Jin’s length as you squeeze him.

“Oh my god.” Jin falls back onto the bed, hands coming up to cover his face. “I didn’t know you could do that. C-can you do it again?”

“I'm full of surprises, ah~!” You gasp as Namjoon adds a third finger into your core. “J-Joon~” You whimper, but he only groans against you, sending vibrations throughout your body until you feel his lips pull away, cursing under his breath. You turn to find out why and see Jimin, apparently done with Jeongguk, has taken Namjoon’s cock out of his pants and currently has it in his mouth, sucking on it harshly the way you know Namjoon likes. You turn back around when Jin moans to see Jeongguk is doing the same thing to his elder, licking long, slow stripes up the side of his cock.

You lean back down next to Jeongguk, your own tongue flicking out with his, causing Jin to moan loudly as he looks down at you both. You wrap your hand back around the base of Jin’s length as Jeongguk sucks his tip into his mouth. You watch carefully the way Jeongguk pleases Jin; both turned on by the act, and taking notes for yourself.

The view is short lived, however, as Namjoon wraps his plush lips around your sensitive bud, sucking on it harshly. Your body shoots up in response, your back arching as you grab hold of Namjoon’s hair again, tighter this time as you feel your high rapidly approaching.

“Oh, fuck~!” You cry out, thighs clamping on Namjoon’s head as you cum on his fingers, legs shaking from the feeling of pleasure coursing through your veins. Namjoon coasts you through your orgasm, replacing his fingers with his tongue to lap up your release. Your breathing starts to return to normal and you open your eyes to see Jeongguk and Jin both staring at you intently, fascination in their gazes.

“N-Noona did you cum?” Jeongguk asks as he sits up, Jin quickly forgotten. “That was hot as fuck.” He growls, reaching for you, his hand landing on a breast and squeezing it.

“Ah~ Joon!” You squeak when he flicks his tongue against your sensitive center again, overstimulation flashing through your nerves as you climb off of his face, sitting down next to his head so he can’t do it again.

Jeongguk follows you, untying the ribbons still covering you as he sits between your legs, his cock looking like it might burst at any moment. He reaches around you and undoes the clasp, tossing the bra away as a low growl forms in his throat, tail thrashing behind him as he practically tackles you, your back hitting the bed. Jeongguk’s length brushes your core, sending a shiver up your spine as his lips find your neck, placing light kisses against the skin before you feel his teeth dig into your collarbone, leaving a hard bite on you, much like Namjoon does when he’s in heat.

Oh no.

“Kook, are you…?” You pull his face toward you, studying the desperation in his eyes as he bites his lip ring. “You too, huh?” You run your hands through his hair, a small whimper leaving his lips as he presses himself against your wetness.

Jeongguk’s focus turns back to your neck and chest, leaving wet patches all across your skin before his mouth finds your breasts, biting down harshly on each one before his tongue flicks against a nipple, and again and again.

You look up to see Jimin sandwiched between the two older boys, Jin’s cock in his mouth and Namjoon’s face between his legs, eating Jimin passionately; loud, sloppy noises coming from both boys. You take this opportunity to squeeze Jin’s arm, trying to get his attention, but he’s too focused on the feeling of Jimin’s mouth wrapped around his cock.

“J-Jin. Jin.” You whine his name, causing him to turn toward you, peering at you through his half-closed eyes. “I think Kook- Ah~” You’re interrupted when Jeongguk bites one of your nipples, his hand sliding down between your legs as he slips two fingers into your entrance. You try again. “I t-think Jeongguk is, fuck… I think Namjoon forced him into his heat.”

Jin’s eyes widen at this, looking down at Jeongguk and reaching out to rub his spine. “Is that right Kook-ah? Is your heat here?”

“Y-Yes…” Jeongguk whines, your nipple still in his mouth.

“Damn…” Jin curses, but you’re not sure if it’s from the new information, or from the way Jimin currently has his length in the back of his throat.

Jeongguk kisses back up to your neck, his lips landing just under your ear as he rubs his cock against your folds, slipping his fingers out and bringing them to his mouth, licking off your juices with a groan. “You taste so good, noona. Let me fuck you, please?” He tugs on your earlobe with his teeth. Jeongguk’s first you suppose.

“Go ahead baby.” You encourage him, spreading your legs a bit more for him. The overstimulation hasn’t fully left you yet, but you’re eager to see what Jeongguk feels like, from the glances you saw, he looks thicker than Jimin.

Jeongguk plants his lips on yours and kisses you desperately, getting up on his knees as he leans himself over you, easily finding your entrance and pushing his length into it. He swallows your moan hungrily, the feeling of him filling you, stretching you wide, is making your face hot. You were right, he’s thick; your walls trembling as they take him in, but god it feels so fucking good when he bottoms out, both of you letting out a strangled moan as your bodies adjust to each other.

“Shit… Shit!” Jeongguk swears, his hips faltering almost immediately as you feel him fill you with cum. His head falls on your shoulder, his whole body shivering from the sensation of you wrapped around him. “I-I’m sorry.” He mutters in your ear, pressing hot kisses to your neck.

“Take as long as you need Kook.” You coo at him, but if he’s anything like Namjoon, you know it won’t be long.

You don’t even think Jeongguk softens inside you, but as you wait, you look over just in time to watch Jimin’s face contort in pleasure as Jin slowly slides into him, gripping Jimin’s hips harshly.

“Oh fuck, hyung~” Jimin cries as he buries his face in the blankets.

But where’s Namjoon?

You look back up to see him situating himself behind Jeongguk, clothes fully shed, cock hard as he strokes it, placing his free hand on the small of Jeongguk’s back, raising his eyebrow at you when he sees the younger boy is still inside you.

“Did you get his first orgasm?” Namjoon asks, a hint of jealousy to his tone.

“Mhm.” You nod, running your hands through Jeongguk’s hair as his tail flicks behind him.

“Damn. I wanted that to myself.” Namjoon states, pulling Jeongguk up so that his back is pressed against Namjoon’s chest, length still throbbing inside you. “Can I fuck you Kook?” He growls. “I wanna feel how good that ass is while you please your noona.”

Jeongguk nods furiously, pressing his ass back against Namjoon. Namjoon squirts some lube on his length before slipping himself between Jeongguk’s cheeks. Jeongguk’s mouth drops open in a silent cry as Namjoon fills him, teeth clamped on his shoulder. The sight alone has your core clenching around Jeongguk’s length, watching his eyes flick back open as his gaze finds you, a smirk playing at his lips.

Jeongguk taps Namjoon’s thigh and the elder boy releases him from his bite, allowing Jeongguk to fall on his hands, attention coming back to you. He pulls out of you, simultaneously pushing himself back on Namjoon’s cock before he slams into you roughly, setting an unforgiving pace from the start. Jeongguk fills you over and over, fucking his previous release into you as sweet moans fall from his lips, relishing in the double stimulation you and Namjoon are providing him with. He leans down and his lips find yours, teeth clashing as he kisses you passionately, aggressively, with a desperation only his heat could bring out of him.

It takes no time at all for Jeongguk’s second release to build and explode; you feel the wet heat filling you again and groan with him, his hips not stopping this time as he picks his pace up, his thrusts becoming shallow, but purposeful, angling his hips upward each time as he searches for your spot. He quickly realizes he needs to go deeper, grabbing one of your legs and pushing it back into your chest, throwing it over his shoulder as he tries again, this time slamming directly into your g-spot, causing you to whine loudly.

Jeongguk bites down harshly on your neck again in the same spot, growling low in his throat as you contract around him. Namjoon is the first to go, with a loud grunt he pulls out of Jeongguk and rips off the condom he had on, stroking himself to release across Jeongguk’s lower back before sitting back on his knees and watching. You follow quickly, the way Jeongguk is now repeatedly slamming into you making your legs shake.

“J-Jeongguk~!” With a few more thrusts, you come undone with a whimper of his name, your nails digging into his shoulders as you pant, your orgasm violently coursing through your body. Your core squeezes Jeongguk’s length, and he follows behind you; quickly cumming inside you a third time, his chest heaving from the pleasure that overwhelms him as he buries himself as deep inside you as he can get. His head falls on your shoulder as you both attempt to catch your breath.

“Noona you feel so good… So tight.” Jeongguk growls in your ear, his hips rutting against you as you hiss from overstimulation while Namjoon wipes his release off Jeongguk’s back. “And you look so fucking good when you cum.”

“Fuck~!” You and Jeongguk both look over to see Jin gritting his teeth as he pulls out of Jimin, trying to control his breathing as he forces his own orgasm back and you feel Jeonguk hardening again inside you, whining as his length swells, stretching your walls.

“Damn it, I was so close.” Jimin pouts as he sits back on his knees, shifting Jeongguk’s focus to him.

“S-Sorry.” Jin pants. “M-my max is usually two, and I…” He trails off, his gaze finding you before quickly averting his eyes.

“Hyung…” Jeongguk pulls out of you, cock slick with a mixture of your releases, and climbs over to Jimin’s side. “Let me.”

Jimin nods, pulling the younger boy toward him and crashing their lips together, before sliding down Jeongguk’s body and licking your remnants off of him, cleaning up before sliding a condom down on his shaft. You watch in amazement as Jeongguk pushes Jimin down on his back, much rougher with him than he was with you only moments ago as he spreads Jimin’s legs and immediately slides past his entrance, starting a brutal pace that bounces Jimin’s cock with each thrust.

You don’t realize you’re staring until Namjoon taps your side, scooting up behind you and handing you a bottle of water as he presses kisses to your shoulder and swipes a tissue up your folds, cleaning up the mess Jeongguk left between your legs.

“Thanks.�� You take a grateful swig of the cold liquid before handing it back to him.

“I forgot how much you love watching.” He teases, nibbling on your earlobe.

“I’m surprised you’re cognizant enough to notice.” You jab right back.

He chuckles against your skin. “I’m trying my best. It’s hard to stay in my head when I’m watching you and Jimin get fucked like this.” You feel his half hard cock against your back, steadily growing harder as he looks over your shoulder at Jeongguk and Jimin. “It’s almost too hot to handle.” He slips a hand around to your front, grabbing a breast and squeezing it tightly as you whimper.

You chance a glance over at Jin; he’s sitting, his hair pushed back off his forehead, leaning back on his hands, his legs out in front of him, length stiff where it lays against his stomach, his breathing heavy as he watches his roommate turn the blonde beneath him into a mess.

Namjoon squeezes you again, eliciting another soft moan from your mouth, the sound catching Jin’s attention this time. The way he looks so fucked out already as his eyes follow the curves of your body makes you feel hot in every aspect of the word, easily arousing you again as you shift against Namjoon.

“Why don’t you go sit in his lap baby? I know you want to. He can’t stop looking at you either.” Namjoon whispers in your ear. “Jin hyung.” Namjoon rests his chin on your shoulder as he calls Jin’s name, the older one forcing his gaze away from your body to look at Namjoon.

“Hm?”

Namjoon hands him the water and Jin drinks it eagerly, both of you watching as a bit slips down his chin, glistening in the low light before Namjoon urges you forward. He follows you with his eyes as you crawl over to Jin and quickly straddle his lap, tossing the empty bottle behind him, all of his focus on you. You press your lips to his neck, licking up the dribble of water that escaped and following the trail up. When you reach his mouth you slip your tongue into it as you rub your wet folds against his length. Jin groans, his cock twitching at your touch, aching to be inside you already.

“If I didn’t know any better,” You begin, smirking down at him, loving the way he gives into you completely. “I’d say you’ve been waiting for this for a long time, Jinnie.” You use the nickname you only break out when you want to fluster him, and watch as his face and chest turn bright red.

“Like you haven’t been.” He throws back, his hands gripping your hips tightly. “I always knew you’d give in eventually.”

“Only to see the look on your face. Time to live out your biggest fantasy.” And with the final word, you grab his cock, effectively silencing him as you line it up with your entrance before ever so slowly sinking down onto him.

Your breath leaves you as he fills you, reaching depths inside you that you didn’t know could be reached. You both whine, the desperation tangible between the two of you as you finally bottom out, relishing in the way he fills you up so completely.

“Holy shit you’re tight…” Jin pants, fingers digging into your waist.

“Fuck~” You groan, bouncing yourself in his lap as soon as your body adjusts. Loud, breathy moans fall from your lips with each thrust, obsessed with the feeling of Jin’s cock inside you. He holds you flush against him, your chests pressed together as he helps you move on his length.

“Feels good, huh?” He mutters in your ear. “Regret not doing it sooner?”

“Shut up, Seokjin.”

After only a few minutes, you feel someone else’s hands on you from behind and recognize them as Namjoon’s. He caresses your back before one of his hands lands on top of Jin’s, the other placing a hard smack on your ass and jostling you in Jin’s lap.

“J-Joon~” You whimper as he leans against you, pressing his hard length against your ass.

“You look so fucking hot on hyung’s cock.” Namjoon growls in your ear. “Let me fuck you too.”

You can only nod, arching your back for Namjoon as you press yourself against Jin’s chest harder, forcing him to lay down with you on top of him, both of you looking over your shoulder at Namjoon as he situates himself between both of your legs, his palm smoothing over the small of your back as you push your hips towards him, begging him to fill you already.

Namjoon finally gives you what you want; you feel the cold press of his fingers spreading a dab of lube against your ass before you finally feel his cock against you, pushing forward with purpose. He quickly slides past your puckered rim, a bit faster than comfortable, but it feels so good you don’t ask him to stop, your core contracting rapidly around Jin.

You cry out when they’re both fully seated inside you, never having felt so full in your life, feeling like your body might rip in half from the pleasure. You pant harshly against Jin’s shoulder as Namjoon pulls back and thrusts into you, slowly at first, getting you used to the sensation before his pace increases, along with Jin’s. It’s a deliciously tortuous feeling, Namjoon thrusts in, Jin pulls out, Jin pushes in, Namjoon pulls out; the two of them making sure that you’re always filled by at least one of them as they slide against each other inside you.

Any semblance of control you had left is long gone, your mouth hanging open, whimpering from the stimulation as Jin alternates between whispering encouragement and dirty nothings in your ear.

You hear Jimin whine next to you, but you’re too wrapped up in the cocks inside you, you can't even turn your head to watch as him and Jeongguk both find their highs, you can only listen to the addicting sounds coming from both of them, only serving to spur you on further.

“Doesn’t she feel good, hyung?” Namjoon grunts, slamming into you extra hard for emphasis.

“Fuck, she feels amazing.” Jin groans, fingers digging into your waist. “I always knew she’d have a tight cunt.”

“Worth the wait?” You can feel Namjoon raise an eyebrow as he teases the older boy.

“Anything for this.” Jin admits, squeezing a hand between your bodies to pinch a nipple. “I can’t wait to feel her cum.”

“J-Jin~ Joonie~” You moan in response, feeling the familiar swirl begin to form in your stomach, alerting Namjoon who immediately catches on.

“Mm, she’s close.”

“Good, because I am too.” Jin huffs, thrusting up into you with purpose now as the promise of release closes in on him.

“Y/N-ah, be a good girl and cum for Jin hyung, yeah?”

“Uh huh~” You sigh against Jin’s shoulder, trying to focus only on the feeling of pleasure coursing through your body at full speed.

You feel Jin’s hand slide down to your center and quickly locate your clit, his long, agile fingers rubbing tight circles around it, bringing you up to the edge and throwing you off of it before you can even think.

“Fuck, yes~!” You grip Jin’s shoulders tightly as your whole body shakes, toes curling as your core convulses unforgivingly around both Jin and Namjoon.

Jin’s first, his head falling back against the blankets and the most erotic sounds falling from his lips as he pulls you down against him, burying himself as deep as possible inside you, his hot release filling what his length can’t reach.

Namjoon follows close behind, growling low in his chest as he slams his hips against you one last time before relishing in the feeling of you contracting around him. Namjoon is the first to pull out, helping you off of Jin as well before the three of you collapse into a pile on the floor, catching your breath.

“Shit…” Jin gasps beside you, staring up at the ceiling.

You watch Namjoon as he sits up, scooching over next to Jeongguk, the younger hybrid still hard as ever, to lock their lips back together. You groan at the sight as Jeongguk pulls Namjoon against him, his hand falling to the elder boy’s length and squeezing it tightly. Namjoon whimpers at the touch, his cock quickly reacting as it hardens before you watch Namjoon give in to Jeongguk, letting him be the dominant one this time. Jimin settles himself on Jin’s other side, the three of you watching with fascination as Jeongguk and Namjoon growl and whine at each other as their tongues wrestle.

“Jin hyung.” Jimin coos, grabbing Jin’s chin between his fingers. You watch Jimin turn Jin’s face toward his own before their mouths press together hungrily, Jimin’s tongue flashing pink as it slips into his elder’s mouth. Your eyes are drawn down as their lengths both begin to stir again, twitching as they brush against each other, both of them whimpering at the sensation.

You sit back in amazement, watching the four of them caress each other until Jeongguk flips Namjoon onto his stomach and quickly climbs on top of him, pinning him to the bed with his body as he spreads Namjoon’s cheeks apart, squeezing lube onto his throbbing hole and spreading it around with his fingers, listening to Namjoon’s sweet moans, as Jeongguk immediately slides three fingers inside, readying Namjoon for what you know will be a stretch.

After Namjoon begs him, Jeongguk relents, pulling his fingers out and pressing his cock against Namjoon’s entrance, slowly breaching him. Your core slickens again as Jeongguk’s length disappears inside Namjoon, the two of them pressed together as Jeongguk bottoms out, Namjoon panting harshly from the breadth of Jeongguk spreading him wide.

You don’t realize you’re whining at the sight until Jimin tugs you down back in between himself and Jin, your chest pressing against Jimin’s as his hands find your waist, pressing kisses to your shoulders as Jin’s hands grip your ass, squeezing it tightly.

“One more?” Jimin mumbles in your ear, licking a stripe up your neck with want.

“Please.” You breathe, pulling Jimin’s lips to yours.

You can feel him smirk into the kiss, his hands joining Jin’s as they roam your body, pressing and pinching and squishing every spot they can find until you can feel both of their cocks pressing against you, one on each side. Jimin gives you one last kiss before he lifts your leg, sitting up to get a better look at your center.

“You have so much cum inside you baby.” Jimin observes, fingers dragging through your folds. “Does it feel good?”

“Mhm.” You mumble.

“Why don’t we let Jin hyung fill you again, hm? As a treat. Is that okay?”

“Y-yes.” You nod, the thought of Jin raw in your ass making your core clench around nothing.

“Good girl.” Jimin states, taking a minute to enjoy the view as he slickens Jin’s length, loving the sounds that leave Jin’s lips as he does. Jimin reaches down and then you feel Jin’s tip press against you. “Okay hyung,” Jimin guides him. “Nice and slow.”

Jin’s hands find your waist, gently pressing his waiting cock into you as he groans into your neck. You throw your head back, your breathing picking up as his thickness spreads you open. You whimper from the slight sting as his widest part breaches you, but Jimin is quick to slather more lube around your hole, making it infinitely easier as Jin finally fills you, both of you letting out staggered moans.

“Shit…” Jin gasps, his breath hot on your ear.

“Fuck, noona you always looks so good with a cock inside you.” Jimin whines, quickly laying back down as he readies himself to join Jin.

One of Jin’s hands join’s Jimin’s under your knee, helping to hold your leg up as Jimin aligns himself with your entrance and quickly pushes his hips forward, making you whine as he situates himself inside your wet heat, his cock only serving to fill you that much more.

Your head spins as both of them begin to thrust, obsessed with the way they feel; Jin as deep in your ass as he can go, filling you deliciously, followed by Jimin stretching your walls so amazingly that you have to focus on anything else, lest you cum too fast from the stimulation. Their bodies press against you, sandwiching you between them with each thrust, as you grip Jimin’s shoulders to hold both your body and your mind steady, a haze of pleasure threatening to overwhelm you.

Jimin. Jin. Jimin. Jin. Over and over their lengths satiate the need between your legs; hot, breathy moans falling from the lips of all three of you as your core squeezes them again and again. You hear several groans coming from the pair next to you as well, but are too busy attempting to ground yourself to this plane of existence to chance a glance over at what you’re sure is a beautiful display of both hybrids' desperation for their final highs.

It isn’t until you feel another hand on your leg, that you look up to see Jeongguk staring down at you, hair plastered to his face with sweat, his eyes trained on your core with hunger. He disappears again, and a few moments later, you feel a tentative tongue flicking out against your skin. You and Jimin both sit up enough to see Jeongguk’s tongue starting to work you both, flitting between your clit and the base of Jimin’s cock.

Jeongguk’s mouth wanders before finding Jimin’s balls, sucking the delicate flesh into his mouth. Jimin drops his shoulder as he hides his whimpers in your neck, allowing a glance at Namjoon, who stays on his side, head turned toward you, watching intently with a smirk on his face, his expression alone causing you to clench down on Jimin, forcing him into his release as he thrusts one last time, burying himself deep as his hot cum adds to the mess already inside you.

“Fuck~” Jimin can’t handle the squeeze of your walls any longer, quickly pulling out and laying on his back beside you, his remnants dribbling out as he does, leaving only Jin inside you as the eldest continues to fill you, slowly, purposefully as he presses wet kisses to your neck.

“N-Noona…” Jeongguk mumbles, almost laying on top of Jimin as he scrambles to take the blonde boy’s place. “You didn’t cum yet, did you?” He asks, sliding a hand between your bodies and locating your clit, brushing against it with his fingertips. “I-I can help you.”

You can only nod in response, tugging Jeongguk’s body closer. You only half pay attention as Jeongguk rolls onto his back, tugging you with him as he instructs Jin to follow. Jin obeys, getting up on his knees behind you, his length never leaving you as you straddle Jeongguk’s waist. The younger boy wastes no time in situating your hips on top of him, sliding you down onto his length once more. It’s less of a shock this time, having already been on his cock once today, but the stretch is still immaculate, and with both of them being so much thicker than you’re used to, it’s a miracle you’re able to hold back your release as you teeter on the edge. You can’t cum yet, not when it feels this amazing.

You lean down and tug Jeongguk’s bottom lip into your mouth, flicking his lip ring with your tongue before slipping it past his lips, moaning unabashedly into his mouth as he begins fucking up into you. The new position allows Jin to pick up his pace, gripping your waist tightly as his hips finally smack into yours, filling your ass to the hilt as Jeongguk does the same to your core. You’ve never felt a fullness like this in your life, your mind failing you as the only sensation you can feel at this point is euphoria; it fills every inch of you, flooding every nerve ending, every receptor in your body intoxicated by the pleasure.

Jin’s first; collapsing on top of you from the feeling of his orgasm overloading his brain, gasping as his sticky release fills you to the brim before he has to pull out, falling back behind you as he joins Namjoon and Jimin in watching.

Now that he doesn’t have to worry about Jin, Jeongguk sits up with you pressed to his chest, holding you in his lap as he slows his pace, thrusting up into you with purpose, his hips pressing against your ass as your body greedily takes the entirety of him inside of you. His tip rubs into your g-spot hard as you gasp for air, suddenly lightheaded as that familiar feeling swirls aggressively in your stomach.

Jeongguk’s next; crying out your name as he drops you on his length, filling you all at once as you feel his release spurting inside you, listening to his sweet whimpers as the tip of his cock is thrust harshly into your spot.

“Fuck~!” You come undone in a matter of seconds, moaning loudly as Jeongguk pulls you close, trembling in his arms. He allows you to bury your face in his neck as your orgasm wracks your body, your core spasming dramatically around him, drawing out both of your highs. You see stars in every color behind your eyes as you squeeze them shut, arms wrapped tightly around Jeongguk’s neck as his length pulses inside you.

You remain wrapped around Jeongguk as he lays back next to Jin, the three of you attempting to catch your breath; dizzy and exhausted, everything just a little fuzzy around the edges of your vision as you come to. Jeongguk’s breathing evens out rather quickly and you look over to see him fast asleep, chuckling to yourself.

“He’s just like Joon.” You giggle, lifting yourself off of him as you hiss from sensitivity. “Already asleep.”

“Noona,” Jimin appears in front of you in his boxers and you smile. “Here.” He hands you a bottle of water as you sit down on the bed and you take it, drinking like you’ve been in the desert as Jin does the same next to you. “Are you alright?” He asks, cupping your cheek.

“I’m good. Just tired.” You assure him before turning to Jin as you point a thumb behind you at Jeongguk.. “Are his heats always like that?”

Jin nods. “Yeah he gets them pretty bad. Usually needs five or six before he can take a break.”

“Damn.” Namjoon mutters.

You sigh, flopping back on the blankets. “Damn is right. I’ll be lucky if I can walk tomorrow.”

“Ah, I-I’m sorry.” Jin states.

“I’m just kidding.” You smirk, giving Jin’s arm a squeeze. “Well, kind of.”

“Do you want to shower love?” Namjoon asks as he stands.

You nod. “Yeah, probably would be best. I feel very… sticky…” You grimace as you realize just how true that statement is. “Should we just leave him?” You brush Jeongguk’s hair off of his face as he snoozes peacefully.

“Yeah I’ll wipe him down and he’ll shower when he gets up.” Jin explains.

Namjoon offers you a hand and you take it, allowing him to pull you up, and then catching you when your legs don’t want to work right away. Jimin and Jin attend to Jeongguk while Namjoon leads you through the bedroom and into the bathroom, starting the shower for you as you tie your hair back and slide your thigh highs off. He helps you climb in and takes a washcloth, dampening it with warm water and gently washing you as you wince, gripping his shoulders to hold yourself up. A few minutes later, Jimin and Jin file into the bathroom, tossing soiled sheets into the laundry basket as they wait their turn. You can’t help but giggle at the way Jin holds his hands in front of his now soft length, covering himself like he didn’t just fuck you senseless.

When Namjoon deems you clean, you change places with Jimin and Jin, allowing them to shower the sex off of them while Namjoon runs to grab you a change of clothes, returning quickly as you dry yourself off and handing you some pajamas to change into.

The two of you head back out into the living room to find Jeongguk still fast asleep, boxers on. You smile, grabbing a blanket and laying it on top of him before plopping yourself down into the nest, pulling Namjoon down with you.

“So,” You whisper, laying yourself on Namjoon’s chest as he tries to pick something to watch on the tv. “Was that everything you hoped for?”

He smiles, humming with delight. “It was perfect Y/N-ah, thank you.”

“I'm surprised you’re not asleep too.” You tease, looking over your shoulder as Jeongguk snores softly.

“Me? Nah, I think it’s finally starting to slow down.” He sighs as Jimin and Jin walk over and situate themselves on the blankets with you; Jimin on Namjoon’s other side and Jin between you and Jeongguk. “Besides, I think you came more.” He snorts.

“Definitely not.” Jimin chimes in. “Jeongguk came the most, but hyung you were second.”

“For sure.” Jin agrees from your other side, grabbing a blanket and pulling it up over you both.

“Tired Jin hyung?” Namjoon smirks as the older boy lays back and closes his eyes.

Jin nods as he snuggles up to your back. “I’m fucking exhausted now.”

“I think hyung’s right, we all deserve some rest.” Jimin states, grabbing a blanket for himself and Namjoon to share. “Before Jeongguk wakes up for round two.”

You all chuckle, settling down into the bed together. Jin’s body is warm as it presses against your back, and it isn’t long before your eyes feel heavy. You decide not to fight it, and allow yourself to fall into a heavy sleep.

love in transit

07. not even a little fruity?

scene seven in session …

megan's eyes sparkled with curiosity as she asked leaned into sophia who was busy typing up a document on her laptop, "sophia, who was the girl that dropped you off last night?"

sophia's expression was neutral. "oh, that's y/n. why?"

megan hesitated before responding, "okay, can you just hear me out first?"

sophia nodded, her tone cautious. "uhm, okay. go on. but i have no idea how this has anything to do with y/n."

megan's grin grew wider. "just listen."

sophia nodded again, her voice barely above a whisper. "listening..."

megan's eyes locked onto sophia's side profile as sophia had her head tilted to the side, still typing away at her screen. "you know how i was just sort of going ballistic about this girl on twitter?" megan admitted, who couldn't help but snicker a bit herself.

sophia snickered. "uh-huh."

megan's voice dropped to a whisper. "that might've been about your friend..."

sophia's eyes narrowed. "y/n?"

megan nodded, her voice barely audible. "yep..."

sophia's expression changed, her eyes widening in genuine surprise. "actually?"

megan groaned, throwing her hands up in the air dramatically. "oh lord."

the room fell silent, the tension palpable.

megan's voice broke the silence. "please don't kill me, manon had the same exact reaction and i totally understand it." megan stammered dramatically in a pathetic attempt at 'buttering' up sophia.

sophia's fingers hovered over the keyboard as she grinned to herself, her eyes wide with amusement. "wait, what?" megan only stared at sophia like a lost puppy. sophia burst out laughing, her eyes shining with mirth. "no, no, no, no, no. girl, i'm not mad."

megan's face lit up with a mock-happy expression, making sophia laugh even harder. "really?"

sophia's laughter subsided, her voice humming with amusement. "mm, maybe just a little now that i think about it." sophia laughed, meanwhile megan only rolled her eyes at sophia's sarcasm despite the growing-grin on her face.

"anyways," sophia hummed, wiping imaginary tears from her eyes. "why her? i might've been drunk at the time, but i'm pretty confident you wouldnt've even talked to y/n. or at least, she didn't talk to you."

sophia snickered teasingly, and megan sighed, letting out a dramatic groan in response. sophia laughed again.

"yeah, she didn't talk to me," megan admitted.

"not surprising," sophia huffed with a slight smile playing at her lips. "hate to break it to you, but she's already in a relationship, mei."

megan's eyes widened in surprise. "wait, what?"

sophia nodded, her expression turning serious. "yeah, she's dating mateo. mateo anderson."

sophia's face scrunched up in annoyance and immediately turned sour at the mention of mateo's name.

megan groaned, her voice laced with disappointment. "so she's not even a little fruity?"

sophia nodded, her lips creasing together into a line as she held in a snicker at her friends choice of wording.

"god, and she's dating mateo out of all people. everybody loves that guy for some reason, should've known."

megan let out another frustrated groan, and sophia hummed in agreement, her voice taking on a hint of annoyance. "i know, right?" sophia's expression turned bitter. "it's actually sickening to watch everyone on campus butter up to him."

"wait, didn't manon just tweet about him? the girl was literally threatening him on my twitter feed," megan huffed, a bitter laugh falling from her lips.

sophia briefly nodded her head up and down, her gaze more focused on the bright screen beneath her.

megan's curiosity was piqued. "do you know why though? because now i'm curious."

her eyes flickered to sophia's laptop screen, trying to get a glimpse of what sophia was working on.

sophia mumbled, "uh, long story, can't tell you, sorry mei."

megan's eyes widened in surprise as her curiosity only grew. "wait, what?"

she placed her palm on sophia's shoulder, pleading. "pleaseee, fifi."

megan groaned, gently shaking sophia as she continued typing on her computer. sophia was too engrossed in her laptop to pay megan much attention.

megan huffed again in mock annoyance. "ugh, fine then."

1. Categorize love. Study the anatomy of love, the boring kidneys and intestines. By this I mean take apart the love-things around you into actions: care-words, routine, washed dishes, messages captioned "this made me think of you". This is a guide you will use later.

2. Erase subtext. Erase the concept of subtext: the questions of "but are they doing it out of kindness" and "but do I deserve it" are not the ones we're studying here. This is action and reaction, black box model: do they do the actions of love? Do you do them in return? If so, this is love. Congratulations. Grow and maintain it through making it.

3. You might say that this is no feeling, that what I describe is a strange science of a lonely person battling their brain: it is, and I am. But the thing is the only way to stop the thoughts spiraling is to let them not matter, in your head or anyone else's. There is nothing but the actions, and the actions of love are ones you can witness in your life. No miracle. No secret language. I offer a distraction in tough times, some words, to walk the dog: I make care, and I only say that because making love has been narrowed down to one particular action, which is as silly as can be.

4. I have to return to the feelings: I have to say, in my experience, they are shaped by the motions. If I let myself be nothing but worry then worry is all that I am, hardly there and not enough, certainly nothing to be loved. If I think, deliberately, switching the drive of my mind to manual, that what people offer me is love and not pity, is care and not charity, then that is who I am, and slowly, bit by bit, that is how I feel.

5. This feels like lying but please understand most social truths are stories that we tell together, and stories are just a pretty type of lie. This is to say love is a story you can spin around yourself, and reverberating through others it will turn into feeling, motion, light, everything better poets have already written about. But first, you must tell it. It starts so very simply:

6. You are loved.

you're grabbing lunch with a nice man and he gives you that strange grimace-smile that's popular right now; an almost sardonic "twist" of his mouth while he looks literally down on you. it looks like he practiced the move as he leans back, arms folded. he just finished reciting the details of NFTs to you and explaining Oppenheimer even though he only watched a youtube about it and hasn't actually seen it. you are at the bottom of your wine glass.

you ask the man across from you if he has siblings, desperately looking for a topic. literally anything else.

he says i don't like small talk. and then he smiles again, watching you.

a few years ago, you probably would have said you're above celebrity gossip, but honestly, you've been kind of enjoying the dumb shit of it these days. with the rest of the earth burning, there's something familiar and banal about dragging ariana grande through the mud. you think about jeanette mccurdy, who has often times gently warned the world she's not as nice as she appears. you liked i'm glad my mom died but it made you cry a lot.

he doesn't like small talk, figure out something to say.

you want to talk about responsibility, and how ariana grande is only like 6 days older than you are - which means she just turned 30 and still dresses and acts like a 13 year old, but like sexy. there's something in there about the whole thing - about insecurity, and never growing up, and being sexualized from a young age.

people have been saying that gay people are groomers. like, that's something that's come back into the public. you have even said yourself that it's just ... easier to date men sometimes. you would identify as whatever the opposite of "heteroflexible" is, but here you are again, across from a man. you like every woman, and 3 people on tv. and not this guy. but you're trying. your mother is worried about you. she thinks it's not okay you're single. and honestly this guy was better before you met, back when you were just texting.

wait, shit. are you doing the same thing as ariana grande? are you looking for male validation in order to appease some internalized promise of heteronormativity? do you conform to the idea that your happiness must result in heterosexuality? do you believe that you can resolve your internal loneliness by being accepted into the patriarchy? is there a reason dating men is easier? why are you so scared of fucking it up with women? why don't you reach out to more of them? you have a good sense of humor and a big ol' brain, you could have done a better job at online dating.

also. jesus christ. why can't you just get a drink with somebody without your internal feminism meter pinging. although - in your favor (and judgement aside) in the case of your ariana grande deposition: you have been in enough therapy you probably wouldn't date anyone who had just broken up with their wife of many years (and who has a young child). you'd be like - maybe take some personal time before you begin this journey. like, grande has been on broadway, you'd think she would have heard of the plot of hamlet.

he leans forward and taps two fingers to the table. "i'm not, like an andrew tate guy," he's saying, "but i do think partnership is about two people knowing their place. i like order."

you knew it was going to be hard. being non-straight in any particular way is like, always hard. these days you kind of like answering the question what's your sexuality? with a shrug and a smile - it's fine - is your most common response. like they asked you how your life is going and not to reveal your identity. you like not being straight. you like kissing girls. some days you know you're into men, and sometimes you're sitting across from a man, and you're thinking about the power of compulsory heterosexuality. are you into men, or are you just into the safety that comes from being seen with them? after all, everyone knows you're failing in life unless you have a husband. it almost feels like a gradebook - people see "straight married" as being "all A's", and anything else even vaguely noncompliant as being ... like you dropped out of the school system. you cannot just ignore years of that kind of conditioning, of course you like attention from men.

"so let's talk boundaries." he orders more wine for you, gesturing with one hand like he's rousing an orchestra. sir, this is a fucking chain restaurant. "I am not gonna date someone who still has male friends. also, i don't care about your little friends, i care about me. whatever stupid girls night things - those are lower priority. if i want you there, you're there."

he wasn't like this over text, right? you wouldn't have been even in the building if he was like this. you squint at him. in another version of yourself, you'd be running. you'd just get up and go. that's what happens on the internet - people get annoyed, and they just leave. you are locked in place, almost frozen. you need to go to the bathroom and text someone to call you so you have an excuse, like it's rude to just-leave. like he already kind of owns you. rudeness implies a power paradigm, though. see, even your social anxiety allows the patriarchy to get to you.

you take a sip of the new glass of wine. maybe this will be a funny story. maybe you can write about it on your blog. maybe you can meet ariana grande and ask her if she just maybe needs to take some time to sit and think about her happiness and how she measures her own success.

is this settling down? is this all that's left in your dating pool? just accepting that someone will eventually love you, and you have to stop being picky about who "makes" you a wife?

you look down to your hand, clutching the knife.

Chapter 110 is 13 pages long welcome to hell!!! so in a lot of ways this is just more fuel for a theory that I've had for a few weeks now, that's only gotten stronger with each recent season 5 episode, which is that the last episode of the season is gonna end on 110, and that Asagiri/Harukawa and Bones have been collaborating to make this happen, specifically because it's a major turning point that would be the only good place to end the season on.

When we started getting especially long chapters again (like from 25-35ish pages, with the exception of 107.5, the last two being some of the longest we've ever had), at first I just assumed that Asagiri/Harukawa got freed up from some other obligations they'd been having to cause the extremely short/half chapters, like promotional stuff for the anime/Beast movie, or working on light novels. But then 109 happened, with the "supposed" death of Dazai, and heavy emphasis at the end on how literally everyone is at their lowest point right now, and I got to thinking. 11 episodes is a strangely specific number for an anime season -- why not 12, or 13, or even 10, like you'd usually see? Why have we gotten suddenly gotten two 35 page chapters out of nowhere, that's almost unheard of at this point? They're both beautiful chapters, don't get me wrong (as always), and maybe A/H simply just didn't want to cut them in halves because they felt like the full emotional impact wouldn't hit/that there were no good cutoff points in them, but you can't deny that it's surprising, after all the shorter chapters we've been getting. Why has the anime been going at such insanely breakneck pacing for the most part ever since around the Sunday Tragedy chapters, even more so than it has in the past? So much so that it feels dangerously close to overtaking the manga?

Well, maybe, just maybe, it's because..... Asagiri decided a long time ago that whatever happens in 110 is the only point that feels "season finale"-worthy enough, in an arc that still isn't anywhere close to being completely wrapped up, and so both the manga and the anime have been specifically coordinated to reach that part within 2 and a half weeks of each other?

I've seen a lot of people now think season 5 will end with 109, and as much as my sadistic side would find that hilarious, I honestly don't think they'd do that and realistically don't want it to happen; it'd be so cruel to cliffhanger the anime for years like that, and just doesn't feel like a season cliffhanger BSD would do, a series that is ultimately hopeful and uplifting. Seasons 2 and 3 had a positive, conclusive ending; the only reasons seasons 1 and 4 didn't was because they're technically not really full seasons of their own, and are more like the first cour of another "season" that also came out that same year (seasons 1 and 2 both aired in 2016, so they're more like one big season, and seasons 4 and 5 have both aired this year, so they're also more like one big season, again taking into account how episodes 12 and 50 are not satisfying finales like episodes 24, 37, and hypothetically, 61, are). I really can't see season 5 ending with Dazai and Fukuzawa's supposed deaths, Sigma being unconscious and maybe close to death, Atsushi being vulnerable and limbless again, everyone we love still vampires, and the entire world being basically doomed; that's just too depressing and not like BSD at all. However, having said that, if it doesn't end there, there really isn't any good place to end the season before that, either, that feels in any way satisfying or like a finale at all. And so, to me, that only leaves after 109: chapter 110.

I think things are really gonna turn around next chapter. Like I said, everyone is at their lowest point right now, it cannot possibly get any worse, the framing of Dazai, Fukuzawa, and sskk at the end of 109 is telling us that; this is the time for the heroes to finally start winning again, with Aya being so close to pulling out the sword, and for all the thematic reasons other people have talked about to death that I don't need to go into here again. This upcoming chapter being so short again makes a part of me wary of 110 being "the one", so to speak, I won't lie, but at the same time, it's very possible that it needs to be that short because that's all the final episode of the season will be able to reasonably fit in, since it's already gonna be VERY close if they do make it all the way to 109. And at the end of the day, I don't doubt at all that Asagiri and Harukawa can make these the most monumental and game-changing mere 13 pages ever if they wanted to; a chapter does not at all need to be extremely long in order to be an important and impactful one, even if short ones we've gotten in the past haven't felt the most important.

An additional thought I've had, though this is much more crack territory than all this already is, is that since we know from Anime Expo that a Stormbringer movie at some point is highly likely (judging from Asagiri's reaction when someone brought it up), it's possible that chapter 110 and thus the final episode will involve the long-anticipated return of Verlaine and/or Adam, or at least some other major reference to Stormbringer, that would naturally and smoothly lead into a Stormbringer movie to explain things to people who haven't read the novel. It would make a lot of sense, especially since the s4 OP has the Old World sign behind Chuuya, which might be a hint that this has been in the works ever since seasons 4/5 were first in planning with Asagiri. We also know that Dazai and Chuuya's voice actors apparently struggled to record their lines together this season, which probably relates to 101 and possibly 109, but it could be 110 too.... I could be very wrong, as I'm no expert on this kind of thing, but I kinda doubt they would bring Chuuya's actor in for just the vampire growls, and Asagiri placing heavy emphasis on Chuuya's importance this season in that one interview gives me the impression that he's talking about much more than just 101/109. But that's the least solid evidence I have, that's just mostly based on vibes I get.

So basically, I think a lot of factors -- the unusual episode count, how close the anime is to catching up to the manga with three whole episodes left, the seemingly arbitrary recent chapter lengths, and the climactic events of 109 -- can tell us that 110 might be a very, VERY big deal. Again, there's of course no way this arc is anywhere near close to being finished, with so much left to address and resolve, but since it is currently incomplete in the manga, unlike the previously adapted arcs, if the anime was going to adapt it at all, they'd have to find a place that feels satisfying enough to end this season, knowing there won't be more anime for a long time after this, and so I think they specifically planned for that, from both Bones' and A/H's sides. 10 episodes might not have been enough to reach that point, but 12 or 13 might have been too many it wouldn't have been if Bones actually decided to slow down and let the story breathe the way it needs to, but this post isn't meant to criticize the anime, so maybe 11 was just right. And maybe Asagiri and Harukawa specifically pushed to make recent chapters longer than usual, in order to make sure that the manga reached the story content in 110 the monthly release right before season 5 was to end.

Is this just copium? Absolutely. Am I going to look like an absolute clown in two days when this post ages like milk? Probably. But the evidence is There, so let me just enjoy my delusions until Sunday, okay 🥂🫡

#bungou stray dogs #seriously call me a clown and point and laugh at me if I'm proven wrong all you want #but I really feel like there's solid evidence for this #either s5 isn't gonna reach 109 at all (but I seriously cannot fathom where you would want to stop before then) or they'll go beyond it #if they really do end it with 109....... well i'll give Bones kudos for having the balls to do that ig lol #maybe i'm underestimating (overestimating???) them idk #also just to clarify I don't wanna make it sound like I think Asagiri let the anime/Bones dictate the manga's pacing #like I'm sure these were his/their (him and Harukawa's) own decisions first and foremost #not that (if this theory is true) the anime had a major impact on how the chapters were split and that it-#-would have been extremely different otherwise #i'm pretty confident in that Asagiri does not do anything with BSD he isn't comfortable with #and he doesn't let anyone tell him how to write his story #I just feel like he worked with Bones to make this near-simultaneous release happen #BUT if this is the case I don't feel like it had any major effect on the writing/final product that is the manga #like the last handful of chapters have been so incredible #so I at least am still perfectly happy lol #(i mean i'm devastated and a nervous wreck but u know 🫡 in a good way lmao)#anyway 110 in two days please let this theory be true because I need some fucking hope already #please let Oda show up as Dazai's guardian angel to help (see what I did there-)#it would be the perfect way to end the collective season that is 4/5 with s4 beginning with Oda and now ending with Oda #Asagiri are you reading me are you picking up what I'm putting down please please a ghost Oda is long overdue please-#Oda Verlaine Adam just GIVE ME SOMEONE ALREADY 😭😭😭#MAYBE EVEN A TASTE OF THE FYODOR BACKSTORY TO TIE INTO HIM BEING IN ANIME UNTOLD ORIGINS.

Deacon loves two things: Ymber and digging himself a grave.

Fulj hates one thing: Deacon.

#my characters #waiting on some info on the next commission so i indulged in ocs today bc i doubt i will have as much time for lil comics for a bit #deacon is so devoted hes like yeah i would kill for a deity that could easily kill anything himself but yknow teehee #and fulj just did you tell him you needed therapy also does he even know youd murder in his name #deacon caught red handed haha no of course i havent told him it should be obvious enough haha.... and its in his defense not his name :c #man really does have some issues but i love him so much and hes so devoted but like. unhealthily after a while #he does in fact need a chill pill and therapy but to be fair #ymber has needed therapy for centuries and yet he just bottles it all up and suffers so #its pretty unhealthy until they yell at each other one (1) time bc they are so insecure about things and get mad over very valid reasons #but then theyre like you know what that was necessary and i still want to stay by your side if you let me #and then fulj is like dude hey sorry you seem really happy did you fu- and ymber is like no please stop there we have not #fulj just squinting cause have not is very different than will not but whatever she doesnt wanna think about that with deacon involved ew #and eventually fulj is like hey ymber im sorry to say but i really do hate deacon and i dont even know why but he makes me uncomfortable #while deacon is just. in the room. hearing this and thinking how he knows she thinks hes weird but wow that wording hurts #and ymber doesnt wanna fill in memories better forgotten by fulj which she had forcefully removed #so he just says oh well his hair and clothing are black and you had someone in the past that you might see in him and its not a pleasant en #so you know maybe its that idk #and fulj is then WHATST i was rude to him for someone i cant even remember? lame im gonna try SO HARD to be nice to him now #and deacon just still sitting there with some food like this is v awkward and i wish i could not be here for it #and later he asks ymber about who he resembled and as ymber is descibing her it clicks in deacons head and he gets really sad #that he might somehow remind fulj of the woman she loved before she was punished for loving a mortal #and he feels kinda bad pestering her so much with his curiosities about deities and he kinda gets it #the fact hes close to ymber might remind her at the core that she was once that close with a mortal if not closer #anyway story time in the tags again #im so obsessed with these peeps and i have made them suffer so much but they do all end on a happy note #its still funny and nice to me that while fulj is creeped out by deacon and doesnt like talking to him #he still expresses the most emotions to her - he tries hard to remain serious around ymber and collected and obedient at all times #and when out and about with ymber he has to be intimidating and refuses smiling but fulj?? all sunshine and smiles and emotions easy to rea #and she is just that is so weird go away i hate you

Yeeeeeeeep. It's one of my favorite things about swsh tbh. Just how many parallels that can be made. You pretty much hit every point there. The conflict between Hop and Naomi put a lot of things into perspective with her, Leon and Raihan. It's what inspires her to actually reach out to them again ( she starts with Raihan, bc he isn't as busy as Leon, but they all do end up talking).

Ough, Leon, Carol n Bede sll having to take care of themselves from a young age....yeah. Yeah, that's just about right :')

----

( post darkest day)

Nessa: .....Hey remember that ghost story you told us when we were younger? About the dragon?

Raihan: Yeaaaah?

Nessa:

Raihan:

Raihan: ( realization) WAIT-

Nessa: You jinxed us.

Raihan: NO I DIDN'T!!!!

( she's joking lol)

----

( nods nods) Nessa going into the league as a gym trainer first definitely builds up experience. I think the fact that she got so far within the gym challenge itself made her like one of the top suspects for the new gym leader role, though I don't think she'd just take it without feeling she worked hard for it. Gym challenger is one thing, gym leader is another, you know? Two different fields, two different mindsets- she has to hone in if she wants to be the gym leader she thinks she can be! Of course, this applies to her role as a model as well!!!

When I was writing that, I was just imagining Nessa in like. Full blown fishing gear, something that people would not expect her to wear, willing and ready to rangle aquatic pokemon if needed. She scoffs at Leon suggesting herding wooloo is more difficult - try getting a slippery fien to stay in one place for one second and then come back to her.

Nessa, to me, was always the cool one to Leon. Okay that's a lie. Leon thinks all of his friends are like. The coolest people ever and he's so grateful to have met all of them. Nessa is cool on how she carries herself, how she knows so much about water and the beings within them, as well as the different stories she could tell from simply being a trader's daughter. So yeah, he thinks she's so cool :) ( I think everyone does lol)

---

Soul appearing in Leon's nightmares would be bc he's worried about his health, yes. Like simply being away from him and the family would make things worse ( since he's not there to help). He knows Soul encouraged him to follow his dreams. He knows that, and he's having a blast. But he can't help but worry.

As for Eternatus....maybe? I don't have a lot of brain juice on that, outside of maybe! And. Yeah. Bede could have gone there. I don't think Rose and Oleana....well maybe Oleana( but I also don't know how far she would let Bede go in terms of getting hurt) , but Rose doesn't seem like the type to put Bede in that type of situation ( where. He could get hurt or worse). But Bede willingly going down that path if he'd known about it? He would. His desire to please Chairman Rose is BIG, and getting wishing stars is an absolute must. Going into a restricted area that potentially contains a treasure trove of them? Yes please!

What was the young adults (Nessa, Raihan, Sonia, Leon, etc.) gym challenge like in Legendsverse when they were younger?

And any foreshadowing or hints to Eternatus?

I'm stilllllll figuring that out, especially bc it's been a while since I exactly expressed my ideas of what they were like back then. I'm gonna focus on Leon, Sonia, Raihan and Nessa. Maaaaaybe Piers. We'll see. This will be long so buckle up!

Leon and Sonia are gonna get grouped together for now bc man. The parallels. I haven't fully decided who endorsed them. I wasn't sure if I wanted Leon to be endorsed by Rose and Sonia by someone else, or if Rose endorsed Sonia ( like in the manga) and Mustard endorsed Leon ( old friend of Gerardo, mayhaps?). The point being that these two went on their gym challenge together.

Sonia was the better trainer.

....At first. Sonia was someone who Leon could not beat when they were younger, and in the earlier part of their journey she really was the better trainer, and favorite of the media. Of course, among the favorites, there were plenty of people who called her a nepo baby and thought she was ruining the sport. Leon wasn't that shabby of a battler. But in terms of skill,back then, he wasn't as good as Sonia. But what he did have was passion and determination. Leon knew from the jump what his goals are. He wants to become champion and he wants Galar to become stronger for it. So even if he wasn't as skilled as Sonia ( yet) he was going to claw his way to that top just everyone. And people noticed that. That fiery passion, that light that he had. It was a much more gradual buildup compared to the success of Sonia who was kinda hit with everything from the jump ( can't imagine that really helped with her enjoyment of the gym challenge),and once Leon started going he could not be stopped. And when you just keep going, someone has to get left behind right?

Personality wise, again something I haven't fully thought of. I used to like the idea that Leon was shy, but I think it fits him more that he was always this full of energy and ....I dunno expressive? But also hard to read. Someone who's determined, who's passionate, who has a good laugh, but you always don't know what he's thinking. That. Sonia....I feel she used to be rather confident in herself. Dare I say, she might have been a smart alek back then,willing to "um actually" someone ( Raihan. It was Raihan). But she was still Sonia. She was still awkward, and kinda uncertain of herself at times. She has a tendency to get in her head that just keeps her stuck - oh hey Hop, what are you doing here? ( This kid and his many parallels).

Where Leon gradually became a force that could not stop, Sonia....well. The gym challenge was wearing her down. Like I said, she has a tendency to get stuck in her head. She would make battle plans, said plans fell apart, and she was left floundering her way through a battle. Everyone's eyes were on her and....and all her friends were so bright. Leon was so bright. They all were bright. They all knew what they wanted....did she know what she wanted? When was the last time she enjoyed a pokemon battle? ......

I'm of the mind that Sonia dropped out of the league around the 7th gym, so at Melony's gym. She had won, said gym, but at that point she could have sent herself that she wasn't having fun and just felt. Lost. Her friends were also so far ahead too so. No way she can make a comeback now, huh? I think this is when her and Leon's friendship breaks bc just like Hop and Naomi, it's been them. Sonia and Leon, against the world. I can't imagine what it's like watching your best friend give up ( even if in the long run, it was literally the best option for her mentally), having that friend just. Close herself in. And there's already a big gap between Sonia and Leon by this point, so when Leon turns around to check on her, not only is she far away, but she's most likely walking in the opposite direction. Or at the very least, too far away for him to reach. It's been awkward after that. But this is about the gym challenge so. Story for another time.

Raihan....oh Raihan. It's been years and I still haven't figured out a solid backstory for him. It's driving me insane. So for simplicity sake, I'm gonna say he was endorsed by the old gym leader of Hammerlocke gym. What's their relationship exactly? No clue, and we're not gonna talk about it right now. Kid Raihan....well tbh, I've always seen him as a little chill, but have a very mean mischievous streak. A pure agent of chaos that one. He was a bit more.... rambunctious (?) back then. Kiiiinda wore his heart on his sleeve more and reacted as such- but overall, really chill. Sometimes had to be the voice of reason for Sonia and Leon ( which is incredibly funny since he is most likely the one that put bad ideas in their head/ goad them into trouble. The duality of this kid). Sonia and him would get on each other's nerves and bicker a lot bc their both smart ass kids, and depending on the subject one is more chill than the other. But it gradually just became custom for them and a form of affection! They both ended up becoming the others impulse control. Raihan and Leon.....Leon kept beating him. And despite how chill he is, Raihan has pride, so each loss just makes him more frustrated. Fortunately, Leon being Leon smoothed things over - he honestly couldn't bring himself to be so mad. Plus, their rivalry was fun! They kept each other on their toes, each move being done with great intensity and vigor. Raihan had a goal to one up Leon one day and Leon would embrace it fully. ( Leon being Champion kinda. Sullied that notion. It still exists, but with lots of outside factors going into it, specifically that their rivalry is now treated as something for others to consume and watch, not just two friends who wanted to see each other grow stronger and try and best each other). In the end Raihan was the one that faced off Leon for the champion title....and lost. And honestly, I think. He reacted pretty badly. I can't blame him, he's a kid, his loss was in public for everyone to see, and he worked so hard- I do not blame him for reacting badly. But man did it make things tense between him and Leon. Even when things settled down, and the initial issue was gone, that tenseness never fully went away, but that's getting way ahead of the gym challenge. Overall, Raihan was that chill but very mischievous friend that loved to bicker with Sonia about history and battle Leon to be the best.

Nessa....I don't have much for her outside of this very specific thing: she was competitive as fuck and a bit of a hot head. I see her carrying herself with so much dignity that the other three could not help but move aside when she was walked by. Leon and Raihan found her intimidating/scary. Sonia found her criminally pretty. I actually think it was Sonia that had Nessa integrated into their little group. Not that Leon and Raihan didn't interact with her, but Sonia was the one that couldn't help but want to get to know her. I mean, she was so confident! How on earth can she be able to walk by like she owned the place. She had to figure it out. ( Raihan: Or you just folded at the first pretty face you saw. Leon: Pfft- Sonia: SHUT UP!!!). They actually became fast friends! Nessa was friendly, if not a bit more stern about the gym challenge ( "quite fooling around and take this seriously!" <- something I can see her saying). Leon and her actually ended up getting along REALLY well! I think it's the market kids bonding over their families respective trade - humble beginnings I suppose. Raihan pissed her off a lot though. One minute they could be having a normal friendly conversation and the next, Raihan is laughing his ass off while Nessa is shaking him by his shirt. And yeah! I'm not sure when she got eliminated - yes eliminated, Nessa is not someone to quit imo. Maybe during the champion cup, maybe somewhere else. But I think she had a really good run! I can actually see her being the one to encourage Sonia to quit her gym challenge, since she saw how unhappy it was making her. I think the promise that they'll still be friends and Nessa cares more about Sonia's happiness kinda just cemented the feelings Sonia had, both platonically and romantically. Nessa is a good good friend to Sonia,even past the gym challenge and years to come.

Yeaaaaah, I'm not doing Piers I don't have much for him. I do think it was Raihan that befriended him first! I feel like he was very much that friend of a friend that didn't reallllly hang out with the others as often but would still get dragged into their shenanigans and was genuinely part of the group. He was the closest to Raihan, but still gave every one cute lil nicknames :3

And finally: Eternatus is weird timeline wise. I don't think Rose got it around the time Leon became champion. I feel that happens some years into Leon's career? Maybe in his teens. So during the gym challenge, Eternatus was still very much a fossil.....but here's an idea. Leon gets lost. Like he usually does. But it's worse here, because he's lost within the deeper levels of the Galar mines. Charmeleon is with him, so he can see, and he's fairly confident in his ability to handle the wild pokemon....but it still sucks. ( It's moments like these that makes him wish that the Galar Rangers are still a thing. Wish that his dad was there to guide him). So he's still wandering around, trying to get himself out of this strange situation....and then he sees it. On the wall,a giant fossil. Or at least, a piece of a fossil? He can't really say but it's there. Right before him. Has anyone ever seen it before? He is rather deep into the mine- he's pretty sure he's not supposed to even be there. Sonia would love to get a look at it.....he can't seem to turn his eyes away. There's something about the fossil. Something.... daunting. Something heavy. It makes his stomach sink, and he feels himself shutter a little but he can't look away. It wouldn't be until Charmeleon takes a hold of Leon's hand , looking at it's trainer with concern. Leon smiles, even if it's clearly nervous, thanks Charmeleon and turns away from the fossil. He eventually does get out of the caves, gets scolded by Sonia and Raihan and goes among his merry way. He forgets about the fossil by then. Though maybe it's still there, at the back of his mind. Maybe that's why, when he sees it again, it feels so familiar.

Just a lil plot bunny for ya :)
