//Gonna say this again. If you don't have your age in your bio or on your blog somewhere and you interact with my blog in any way, I'm blocking you. There's been an influx of minors in this fandom lately and I will not have children on my blog. Even if you're 18+, if I don't see an age anywhere, bye. Please for the love of everything, put your age/age range where people can see it. Especially mobile users like me. Not everyone has access to a desktop.
It's in my rules. If I can't see your age, I'm blocking you. Also if you're not an RP blog, I'm blocking you. My rules are there for a reason. If you can't respect them, leave. The rules are there to be read and followed. I am so fucking tired of saying this every other week. I have had to move Angel twice because of this and if if it continues, Angel is becoming a Discord only muse because I'm sick of this shit.

Tumblr media Tumblr media
out of the four men i think sylus is the least jealous - now let me elaborate that possessiveness and jealousy (in my eyes) are very different
if you talk to another man, sylus both trusts you and has enough faith in himself to know that no matter what the dude does, sylus is yours and youā€™re his
he trusts you 100%, without a shadow of a doubt. and this translates through his lack of jealousy when you spend time with other people
however, if the man even attempts to lay a finger on you, his tone becomes too sweet or his hand inches a bit too close and youā€™re getting uncomfortable?
you bet your ass sylus is interfering.
immediately shifts his body to create distance between you and the other party
he flashes a dangerous look at the other man, evol glowing dangerously as it whispers a small warning into the otherā€™s ear
ā€œStay away and you get to stay alive.ā€
he seriously doesn't fuck around when it comes to your comfort and safety, and if he feels that another man is compromising it or pushing the boundaries it really ticks him off
when does sylus get jealous?
mostly when you start to spend less time with him and more time with others
itā€™s not as if as soon as you spend time with someone else he gets jealous, but if it causes you to start to ignore him/spend less time with him he gets jealous
when he gets jealous, he doesnā€™t hide it at all
sylus isnā€™t one to keep his feelings from you, so when you see his displeasured frown you know immediately something is up
he doesnā€™t get angry or petty when jealous, he just makes it clear that heā€™s not happy with the division of attention
when you ask him whatā€™s up, he gives you the answer plain and simple
ā€œGetting bored of me already? How come youā€™re spending more time with [ā€¦] than me, Iā€™m jealous.ā€
his voice is slow and clearly unimpressed, crossing his arms as he looks you up and down.
luckily for you, heā€™s not hard to win over
spend time with him, even if itā€™s not active such as going out to restaurants or to one of his formal events
the two of you sitting in comfortable silence, him reading a magazine and you looking through moments, thatā€™s more than enough for him
heā€™s not opposed to displays of physical affection either, cuddling or kisses to his face - anything that tells him ā€œyouā€™re mine/iā€™m yoursā€ will satisfy him
just make sure not to spend TOO much time with the other person, otherwise sylus might seriously hunt them down
heā€™d never make you jealous on purpose, he had no interest in other women/men at all and respects you way too much to pull petty moves like that
when sylus accidentally makes you jealous, heā€™ll definitely pamper you, spoil you with gifts and spend time with you
wanted to get the new limited edition plushie? heā€™ll stay in the arcade with you until you get all of them. wanted a new game on steam? heā€™s bought both the game, all the dlcs and any in game passes and currency.
Somewhere at some point during the day he'll simply come clean about it, after all he's a straight forward man and he trusts you.
"I'm sorry sweetie, I didn't mean to make you jealous. Forgive me, please?"
tldr; sylus is a love sick loser that knows youā€™re equally in love with him as he is with you

here goes the award to the most composed LI - zayne gets jealous alright, not nearly as much as the coming two but he still gets jealous
it's not that he doesn't trust you, but watching you smile so brightly to the cafƩ employee or get a little too friendly with another doctor sets him on edge
if you're talking to male friends/giving them friendly hugs zayne's completely fine with it, he's happy to see you surrounded by people who care for you and for you to be happy too
at first it's hard to tell when zayne gets jealous, he has a poker face that would put lady gaga to shame
however, after a while you discover the few subtleties that give away his disgruntled state
for example, if you're talking a bit too excitedly or friendly to the barista - especially one you'd both met just today - there'd be a little crease in his forehead, his mouthwould be a fraction more downturned and his eyes a bit narrower as if he was squinting
or if you talk to him about a male colleague when you two were supposed to be out on a date, he'd definitely be jealous... however the only give away would be the faintest purse of his lips and twitch of his eyebrow
if you ask him if he's jealous he's going to deny it, he usually doesn't lie but when it comes to vulnerable emotions such as jealousy i feel he'd have difficulties expressing them
"Jealous? I'm not jealous, don't worry about me."
but then the right side of his mouth is twitching a little and if you focus hard enough he gives the impression of a kicked puppy, a very subtle hint of 'give me attention'
if you manage to learn the art of 'zayne expression reading' and finally notice that he's not 'lactose-intolerant-and-having-stomach-issues-causing-him-to-look-like-that' but in fact jealous, here's a few ways to heal your zayne!!
zayne specialists recommend a good dosage of subtle affections - e.g. bringing up one of his interests or reminiscing upon something you two did in the past, basically indicating to him 'hey, i still love you most in the world!'
he's a perceptive man and will pick up on what you're doing relatively quick, and his little grumpy face will relax back into the unconscious, soft smile he adopts when in your presence
if he accidentally makes you jealous, he makes sure you know more than anyone else in the world that he's yours and yours only.
reciprocates the small gestures such as holding your hand in public or introducing you to his colleagues
"Good afternoon to you too. I believe you haven't met [Y/N] before?"
and then he'll adjust his hand placement, sliding from patting your shoulder to gentle resting on the small of your back, a little intimate gesture that screams "I'm their partner."
makes sure by the end of the day he's got the message across, and at one point brings it up (even though you've basically forgotten what he did to make you jealous anyways)
"I didn't mean to upset you, [Y/N]. I love you only, no one else could replace you, I promise."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
okay, yeah, we made it to jealous, pouty, bratty man territory
thereā€™s an evident gap between zayne level jealousy and rafayel level jealousy
donā€™t get me wrong, rafayel would do anything you asked of him - partially because of his whole lumerian bond and also because heā€™s utterly whipped for you
does he love you? thatā€™s a stupid question to ask oh course he doesā€¦ but does he truly trust you?
iā€™d like to think that rafayel (if he was dating you in this situation) is absolutely devoted to you and trusts you wholeheartedly, but in reality rafayel has deep engraved fears and uncertainties
he has a fear of being forgotten about, and likely (as a consequence of being forgotten multiple times) - the idea of being abandoned or replaced sends physical chills down his spine
so honestly, rafayelā€™s jealousy stems from the unwavering fear of being left alone, lost and forgotten againā€¦
the pain of being forgotten, itā€™s not something heā€™s willing to go through any more, causing it to be difficult to fully reassure him that youā€™re his.
on a more lighter, more playful level, rafayelā€™s jealousy would probably lay with animals - specifically cats and sea creatures
one day he finds that instead of lazing about with him indoors, that you were outside napping with a cat on your lap
if he wasnā€™t so afraid of the cat concerned for your quality and length of sleep he wouldā€™ve had a go at the cat as it smirked triumphantly at him, licking its paws as it rolls around in your lap.
when complaining later on he would be his usual, petulant self, pouting and crossing his arms, tilting his chin up etc
ā€œI guess you prefer those furry monsters over a fishie like me, why donā€™t you just leave me for one?ā€
to fix this petty brattiness is simple!
simply devote all your attention and affections to rafayel, as in when you two are alone and spending time together you can just pat his head or trace his beauty marks
heā€™ll be pouting the whole time, but after a few pats heā€™ll get embarrassed and his ears will go red as he says something like ā€œIā€™m not a catā€¦ā€ yet he still lets you pet him lol
rafayel especially likes it when you gently stroke at the roots of his hair, leaning into your touch a little every time you thread deeper into his hair
however, if you spend too much time with another man rather than rafayel, itā€™s a whole different type of jealousy/insecurity
heā€™s quiet, too quiet, and withdrawn
the situation was deeply confusing the first time around
itā€™s as if you ordered the wrong rafayel, what happened to his usual bratty and playful personality? this wasnā€™t like all the other times.
unlike his childish display of jealousy when you were with the cat, this time he had a schooled expression, blank, a facade
his expression was eerie, youā€™d never seen him like this, soā€¦ emotionless seeming
rafayel, really, was emotionally detaching from the relationship - he still loves you oh my god he adores you so much heā€™d sacrifice everything he had for you, but the idea of you preferring that other person over him?
it sends him into panic, and all he (believed he) could do was numb himself, anticipate the leave or him getting forgotten
(am i projecting too much hereā€¦ avoidant attachment rafayel believer and lover šŸ˜žšŸ™)
if he withdrew from the relationship first, maybe it would hurt less being left again
of course you werenā€™t intending to leave him, so how do you fix this?
well, as unhealthy as this may seem, spending less time with the new person and more time with rafayel really would be the only way i could think of making him feel better
saying things such as ā€œRafayel I would never leave you.ā€ can only provide him with short-term reassurance, after all how many times have you said that before and then still proceeded to leave him?
instead, caress him gently, give him time to feel safe in the relationship again. late night calls where you two fall asleep together or hold him in your arms as you two both sleep at night
this avoidant attachment style will, however, probably go when you two start dating, since in dating you rafayel has probably decided to let you into his heart and whole heartedly trusts you now :)
if rafayel accidentally makes you jealous, depending on the severity (again) hereā€™s what heā€™d do
if it was a simple thing (such as spending too much time with the shakes idk something more tame) heā€™d definitely tease you
ā€œAwwh cutie? Getting jealous of the sharks? Donā€™t worry, I prefer you over them any day.ā€
heā€™ll have this smug ass grin that pisses you off, as much as it makes you love him too
rafayel will give you more hugs and gifts than usual for a while after, claiming itā€™s ļæ½ļæ½ļæ½nothingā€™ and that youā€™re ā€™hallucinating thingsā€™ when you ask what heā€™s doing
really heā€™s apologising, but you donā€™t need to know that
if he made you really jealous/upset heā€™ll make is extremely clear to you that he belongs to you, his heart and will is yours
will become more clingy and affectionate with you (not that he does it on purpose infact heā€™s only showing his true desires more), forever. like, you get jealous? donā€™t worry, literally for the rest of your life youā€™ll know that rafayel is head-over-heels for you.
tldr: he needs a hug :( also i ended up writing way more than intended but im a rafayel lover, writer and if he has no stans left im dead
Tumblr media Tumblr media
here he is, the most jealous and arguably possessive man in lnd.
xavier tries to hide it, but everyone knows that heā€™s yours, without a shadow of a doubt
we all saw what happened with jeremiah, donā€™t make me pull out the receipts LOL. like jeremiah was just happy to finally see the girl xavier was lining over for centuries and xavier was already losing his shit šŸ˜­
literally anyone talking to you too affectionately will tick him off, but xavierā€™s too sly to make it obvious
youā€™re talking to a doctor (cough zayne) ? xavier brings up some sort of old medicine they donā€™t or asks about their speciality so you stop talking to them
talking to a protocore specialist? heā€™ll all of a sudden be holding a textbook worthy protocore, worth the poor persons whole shop
a florist? heā€™s pointing at every flower and naming them, both common and scientific name.
ā€œOh [Y/N], look at that flower. I believe itā€™s called a Lonicera periclymenum?ā€
*turns to face the clearly shocked and flustered florist with a polite smile*
ā€œWell, maybe you know it as a honeysuckle, is that correct?ā€
after living for so long heā€™s learnt many things, and boy does he use it to his advantage
when xavier gets jealous, he doesnā€™t expect anything from you, no no, this man is a service boyfriend if iā€™ve ever seen one, he was MADE to please you
rather than thinking ā€œoh you donā€™t like me anymore iā€™m so upsetā€œ he thinks ā€œi need to serve and show you iā€™m yours.ā€
do you like sweet things? heā€™s buying you chocolates of all kinds, if thatā€™s not your jam heā€™s got pastries, or candy, or fresh fruit, maybe everything in a little gift box
prefer savoury foods? heā€™ll cook you a meal that he knows you like (even if you donā€™t trust the food) heā€™ll practice making it until you like it
if you talk about another person when youā€™re one on one with him, heā€™ll do little things to get your attention, maybe bite your finger softly or tuck hair behind your ear, little fleeting touches and such
cheeky little grins and conversational diversions such as 'Oh? What about you, how did you do in the exam?' or 'What were you buying in the supermarket?' - more ways of saying "i'm yours, don't forget"
but if you wanted to reassure xavier, physical affections such as cuddling and kisses can win him over
nap with him for a few nights (really he forgave you the first night, he just pretended to be grumpy with you for a while longer for more naps) and heā€™ll be satisfied (for now)
ā€œCome cuddle with me starlight, Iā€™ve still not forgiven you.ā€
(heā€™s lying, he forgave you like a week ago)
likes it when you play with his hair when you two cuddle - now this makes me want to write abt how the men cuddle lol
if he accidentally makes you jealous itā€™d probably be when the two of you are on a mission and he flirts with another woman to easily progress through a mission
the two of you are in the hotel room and youā€™re sulking in the bed, turning away from him and clearly displeased
xavier knows youā€™re jealous, and can only huff out an amused breath - he doesnā€™t like that youā€™re feeling bad but heā€™s happy that youā€™re jealousā€¦ means you like him as much as he likes you!
he gently walks over to the bed, shifting onto the duvet beside you and reaches out to touch your shoulder - making sure youā€™re okay with him touching you
if you let him, heā€™ll lie down next to you and slowly wrap his arms around you, spooning you from behind as he slowly kisses the top of your head
slipping your shirt down to just below your shoulder, he gives the skin of your back gentle kisses as he apologises
ā€œIā€™m sorry, it was for the mission. Iā€™ve only ever loved you, so please donā€™t be angry.ā€
and then he nuzzled into your back until you finally cave in, twisting around and hugging him back.
heā€™ll be seriously apologetic about it though, and in the future avoid such intimate forms of gathering information even *if* you told him it was okay
Tumblr media
AN; i got way too carried away with rafayel ANYWAYS hope you enjoy and now i want to write smaller hcs on how the men cuddle lolol
also this isnā€™t proofread no beta we die like caleb ig

PAC: What your Future Spouse will be like and how will you meet them?
This reading includes:
your FS's personality, vibes, and general info
how and where you will meet them for the first time
songs that represent the vibe of this relationship
The extended reading includes:
your FS's first impressions of you
your first impressions of your FS
a little moodboard
(this first extended reading is available for free!)
Disclaimer: this is just for entertainment purposes, and as a pick-a-card reading it may not resonate for everyone.
TIPS | BOOK A READING WITH ME | PATREON | LINKTREE | SUGGEST A PAC TOPIC
Pile 1
Hierophant, Hermit and Page of Swords
"Love/I said real love, it's like feeling no fear"
How will your FS be like?
Your FS has a lot of earth energy, for me it feels mainly like Capricorn and Virgo, but there's also Taurus here. This doesn't have to be their zodiac sign, I actually think it's more their overall vibe. They're responsible, down-to-earth, grounded and tend to take things seriously. They also seem to be more traditional, or at least they're someone that respects authority and think that you should follow the rules. Despite being traditional, I think that they're pretty open-minded and open to new experiences. In fact, they like to try new things, they give me scientist vibes tbh. It's like they'll try anything at least once, just to see what it will be like.
When it comes to their work they might work in STEM, law enforcement or in management. I also think that they really like to read, mainly non-fiction because they're always trying to acquire more knowledge. If they're not really readers, then this is more of a nerdy vibe when it comes to their favorite hobby. If they love cinema, then they really like cinema and will be telling you about behind the scenes and production stuff every time you two watch a movie.
I feel like they have a hard time expressing their feelings though. It's not that they're thinkers rather than feelers, it's more like they don't feel comfortable being vulnerable, however I also think that they'll do their best to work through this. These people will not cheat on you and they also do not tolerate cheating or any perceived betrayal. They are very loyal. They're in this to actually get married and stay together, not just to play around.
Also, this is very specific but I also think that they're atheists, but they're very attracted to the occult and spiritual - it's like they really want to believe in something, but they can't believe in something they can't prove.
How will you meet them?
I feel like this will be quite different for everyone, but I'm getting two main things. For some of you, you might meet your person through the internet. This could be through a dating app, social media, some of you will even meet them through an online game I'm seeing (I'm actually seeing you being really frustrated with your person, maybe they're playing against you and winning lmao). For this group your relationship might start long-distance or you and your person might have to travel a lot to see each other.
For the other group I see you meeting this person while you're away from home, this almost has an adventure vibe to it. For some, you might be going away on vacation and you meet someone there. For others, this could be a work trip and this person could be somewhat related to your work. I'm also seeing that some of you aren't exactly traveling, but you're out of town, like the city next to yours or something like that.
your vibes in songs
Cherry - Lana del Rey
Like Real People Do - Hozier
Heavenly - Cigarettes After Sex
Blackbird - Beatles
Francesca - Hozier

Pile 2
Seven of Wands, Nine of Pentacles, Two of Cups
"put your life out on the line/you're crazy all the time"
How will your FS be like?
Oh right away your person attracts other people's attention and jealousy. They're probably very beautiful, visually striking or they've got money or status. Either way people can't take their eyes off of them. For some of you, this attention isn't for the best reasons. People might feel wary or scared by your person.
This is someone that doesn't take shit from anyone. They are assertive and have high self-esteem. People might try to put them down, but it's literally impossible. I'm actually feeling Leo, Libra and a bit of Taurus vibes here. They're like the brightest star in the room. They also believe that they're the best - not in the sense that they're better than other people, but more in a self-motivation way.
If they've got money and status - like a good job for example (I also think that they're known for their job and they are very good at it) - it's because they worked really hard for it. They don't really come from money, they worked hard for what they have. That's the other thing they are hard workers and will not settle for less than what they have envisioned. They also don't like lazy people or debbie-downers. They firmly believe that everyone makes their own destiny. (for some reason I'm also getting that they like the movie Brave lol).
When it comes to the relationship they love to shower you with gifts, it might be their love language. Also, something that they will do is support your goals and motivate you when you're feeling down.
I also get a bit of a secretive vibe from them, it's almost like they make you look at the brightest parts of them to distract you from the shadows. They sometimes might struggle mentally, I feel like this might come from some childhood trauma or anxiety. Despite this, they're fighters and don't stop trying to get better.
How will you meet them?
Unlike pile 1, I feel like this is a very old-fashioned type of meeting. You might meet in a public place, like going out to a party or to a restaurant or something like that and you see them and they will start a conversation with you and ask for your number.
Others of you will meet your person through someone else, like a friend or a co-worker will introduce you to them. I don't think that this will be match-making, but you two will be instantly attracted to each other.
Either way, this feels like a more traditional courtship type of situation lmao. You'll both take your time getting to know and really dating each other. I feel like this will be very romantic.
your vibes in songs

Angels - The XX

Pile 3
Tower, Knight of Swords, Eight of Pentacles
"they say I'm too young to love you/they say I'm too dumb to see"
How will your FS be like?
Talk about scorpionic energy. Your person is a force of nature, pile 3. They might have a lot of Pluto or Scorpio influence in their chart. I feel like this is the bad boy/girl pile - in a good way though. If this is a woman she is the embodiment of that dark feminine aesthetic, think Megan Fox for example. In general, they give me dark, edgy, goth vibes. But some lean more towards a romantic, Byron-esque energy. These are the type of people who will seduce you with their gaze and then with their words. They have a very intense sexual energy.
Your person isn't afraid of change, in fact, I think that they crave change. They might start out as being a bit commitment-phobic actually. Your person has also been through a lot, they might be the tortured artist type. They are deep thinkers and love to talk. Like they will talk and talk and talk. Honestly, they're happy to talk about anything, but especially about philosophical stuff or conspiracy theories or that type of thing. Also, as they are so open minded they will be open to talk about anything and are really good listeners. Like, for example, you might love Star Wars but they've never seen it, they're still super happy to talk to you about it and will know about it enough to hold a conversation. They have this gemini energy that they know a little bit about everything. They are very supportive and whenever you have a problem or are feeling down they'll sit you down and ask you to tell them everything.
I get the feeling that they know more than one language and they might actually work as translators, editors or linguists. In general though, I think that this person works freelance and does a lot of different stuff. They want to try as many professions as possible.
They love poetry or music and will either read poetry or sing for you. Again, there's an artist vibe here. They might not be an artist by profession, but they love the arts.
When it comes to their love and emotions they are very passionate. They might express their feelings in really over the top ways. It's like when they're happy they're really happy, but when they're sad they're also really sad. They feel things deeply. Being loved by them is something all-consuming.
How will you meet them?
I actually feel like most of you will meet your person through work. This might mean that you will be co-workers or that you will meet them whilst you or them are working. Let's say that you work as a lawyer for example they might become your client and that's how you get to know each other. Of course, nothing can really happen whilst they're your client, but it will happen afterwards.
For other people, you will meet them during a period that you are very focused on your career and/or you have a lot of work to do. For some people, I'm even seeing that this will be while you're doing your thesis. You're completely focused on something, maybe even feeling a bit stressed and you just meet them randomly. You won't really have time for them right away, but they'll be persistent and keep showing up on your radar until you have enough time to actually get to know each other.

Pile 4
Queen of Wands, Fool rx, Nine of Swords rx
"I live to love you/and I love to love you"
How will your FS be like?
Right away I can see that your person is very stubborn and strong-willed, pile 4. This manifests in both a good and a bad way. It means that they are persistent and don't change their minds without good reason. But, it also means that once they have their mind set it's very hard to make them come around.
This person is very fiery. Mainly I see Aries and Leo energy here. They are extroverted, confident and some of them are a bit brash, while others are charmers. They are also very confident in their charm and sexuality, and it's probably what will draw you to them at first.
I also see them as wanting to boost your self-esteem and show you off to others. They love some jealousy lmao (you being jealous, and also others being jealous of them and your relationship). They are absolute drama queens/kings. It amuses them to blow things out of proportion and they love it even more when you do it back at them. Okay, the scenario I'm getting is they trying to make you jealous by doing something silly or talking about an old partner, they would then love it if you were super dramatic about it and pretended to be really upset. They like to argue for fun as well. Like, honestly you need to rein them in at the dinner table so that they don't push your families/friend's buttons. They are very passionate.
I also think that they are a bit pessimistic at times, but when they really feel like that they will try to keep it to themselves instead of being overtly dramatic. I also think that they're looking for stability and a serious relationship after a time of not having it.
They really don't like surprises. And might not be too excited about change. They would prefer if everything always stayed as it is. I also, feel like sometimes they have a hard time balancing between feeling adventurous and not feeling like leaving their safe space.
I think that most of them speak really fast, and often without thinking. Which ends up with them regretting their words more often than not. Also, acting without thinking.
How will you meet them?
I'm not getting a place/physical circumstance as much as the other piles. But, I think that you will meet your person after you have been through a really hard time. Perhaps you have been struggling a lot with anxiety and are now recovering and then you randomly meet them. I feel like you'll know it's them because they will give you a feeling of calmness and peace.
For others I think that this will be a really difficult situation like the loss of a friend, family member, pet, or even a job. It will take you a long time to recover and you will still be quite vulnerable when you meet your person. You might also be a bit anxious about getting into a relationship at first.

Hehe yeah i guess you could say that it's the timezone that made me finally clarify it after like 5 posts of it, though I genuinely love your analysis posts, idk why but i simply found myself smiling so damn widely whenever i read one of them.
Also another question i just thought (sorry if i have too many questions), i read from some sites that Eurylochus was cowardly and an unpleasant man (also i once read that after Odysseus got his man back after Circe turn them back to normal, Eurylochus insults him, I guess? Then Odysseus was tempted to kill him but the crew hold him back, idk if it's true or not), so with him being second in command, do you think that the crew would treat him differently despite his position as second? Like they would be a bit skeptical of Eurylochus or do they just respect him the same as Odysseus?
Genuinely sorry if this sounds like a stupid question, i am a very curious person.
Hahaha I understand šŸ‘ and I also understand that not everyone wants to write their asks with their username so the adittional questions could be answered with reblogs or comments šŸ˜… hehe I absolutely understand
Oh my that is so kind of you to say. Thank you very much! šŸ«¶
Not at all it is a very good question and not stupid at all so here's what I think;
Like I mentioned before Eurylochus has been named Odysseus's rival in one way and most of the time he is seen opposing Odysseus either because he is scared or because he has had enough with the situation. Yes after Circe's adventure for example Odysseus goes to the beach to inform them on the change of the situation and Eurylochus opposes. He says that if they go then Circe would transform them all to pigs or wolves and lions to guard her palace and then he insults Odysseus by saying:

"And so had (followed) insolent Odysseus and so because of his recklessness they perished"
(Translation by me)
So basically he straight out insults Odysseus in front of everyone and Odysseus indeed had it and he did consider to kill him;
Tumblr media
So he spoke and I was seriously considering whether to draw my pointy sword that was hanging from my thick hip and strike him there and then and take his head even if he was my brother in law (lit: kin by marriage) if it weren't of my other companions to restrain me with soft words
(Translation by me)
However I should say it is an unfair characteristic to call him "cowardly" or "unpleasant" all the time given what he has been through in the arduous trip and all and much of what he said was correct and his fears justified although spoken out of disrespect which was also kinda understandable given how tough their situation was.
Now for the main question it is hard to tell. Although I wouldn't go as far as to say they respected him the same as Odysseus. Odysseus was not just their king but he was also someone with so much knowledge talent and on top of that he was known to have direct contact with the gods. Which is why no one ever directly rebelled against him apart from Eurylochus himself or never staged a mutiny against him. I analyze most of it in some other analysis of mine
Odysseus was what kept them going. However Eurylochus does seem to be a character with plenty of influence. Perhaps the fact that he was the closest to Odysseus in terms of being his brother in law or the fact he was a prince himself and so he did have knowledge to rule was definitely the next possible candidate to take over things. However his power of persuasion seems to be the strongest when they all hit their lowest part; when they got desperate or hungry. Eurylochus persuaded them to slay the cows of Helios and he didn't deny to them the possibility of that meaning their death. But he also mentioned how death in the sea seemed quicker and more preferable than dying of hunger. In one way he is an influential figure but no. Once Odysseus takes over there is no doubt who has the most respect amidst their peers.
I hope this answers the question and it is not stupid at all. It is very intriguing and very important for the Odyssey. It shows how someone like Eurylochus openly insults or challenges Odysseus's leadership and why his peers seem to allow it. In fact Eurylochus brings many valid points and his behavior like come on who wouldn't be scared or worried for their safety and the rest of the men after what they had been through? And Eurylochus has stayed till the end in that nasty situation

My Inane OC Ramblings
Why are Ning Yun and Wukong are a thing? Cause I said so! Okay, in all seriousness from a story standpoint. I do adhere to the same headcanon this person @newkatzkafe2023 has. That if someone gives Wukong a run for his money in a fight, that he will interested. One look at Ning Yun's design and people will no doubt have questions as to how in any world Ning Yun can apply to this rule XD Fair question (that no one asked). Your friendly neighborhood fox and monkey lover shall explain.
------------------- I always tend to look through an RPG lens, cause I'm a gamer girl as well as writer hhh So *pulls out DnD stats* How I see it- Wukong has most of his stat points in strength, dexterity, and a few in arcane and intelligence. Ning Yun's stat points are mostly in arcane, intelligence, and wisdom with a few in dexterity. Polar opposites. Basically the classic warrior and wizard/sorcerer tag team. Also take in mind, I don't know how many people heard of this show, so if you know, you know. Ning Yun is basically my Frieren. (Kinda funny, since that anime has "Beyond Journey's End" in the title) Ning Yun was the Archivist for the Celestials. His library contained thousands to millions of books and tomes from across the known, and unknown, world, gathered by his fox spirits, right at his fingertips. Ning Yun is certainly not stupid. So of freaking course he would take advantage of this. Studying these books cover to cover, time and again, often repeatedly. Imagine all the books on the occult, on magic, on the practices the invoke such magic. Ning Yun, having lived for centuries to millennia, has practiced, perfected, and even fine tuned what he has learned, like Frieren in her respective world. Now, the magic in Jttw is kinda... hard to grasp sometimes for me personally. From what I gather, it is deeply rooted in Chinese philosophies (Taoism is one of the ones mentioned, the other I keep forgetting, please remind me. I think it was Daoism?). I don't know a lot about Chinese culture, I am still learning. So what I take from is mainly from media related to it, like Black Myth or Wo Long, mainly Wo Long. So that is my main reference. Yes, I said that Ning Yun's main specialty is illusion and shapeshifting. Those are his default skills as a fox spirit turned celestial fox. (from research I learned that in folklore, foxes are often associated with illusions and shapeshifting. And yes, I also know they are commonly associated with women. According to what I looked up, SOME legends speak of male foxes in Chinese lore. Either way THIS IS FICTION!!)
From his library, he gained more magic. Sealing, offensive, curses, and so on. So, what about a fight? Firstly, depends on what you mean by fight. Are we talking duel? Sparring? Fight to the death? If duel, what are the rules? If the rules restrict magic, Ning Yun is getting his ass beat, no question about that. If it restricts hand to hand or with weapons, then Wukong might face defeat (if he follows those rules that is). Sparring with both holding back? I don't know. Fight to the death. Wukong can't die XD Ning Yun will get worn out and get himself beat. But in all seriousness, it depends on how they both take that fight. They have their own strategies. If Wukong gets touched, and Ning Yun thinks fast, Wukong might be faced with one of Ning Yun's direct nightmare illusions, and find himself fighting a mental breakdown >:) (if you read my thing about that, then you know exactly what I am talking about) Again, it all depends on how they react to each other and their respective capabilities. Anything can happen in a fight. Ning Yun is at a physical disadvantage. His strategic thinking and magical capabilities however, could win Wukong's respect however.

Thank you for the new philia explanations! Belphegor makes a lot of sense to me with him being sloth and how you have to put a lot of effort to get him interested. But my forever problem with this is this game implied that weā€™ll be dominating these demons and yet weā€™re constantly on the sub side. I hope Belphegor doesnā€™t mind me taking a nap with him because man I donā€™t want to deal with all of that. How Solomon has all the philias I donā€™t know because I didnā€™t inherit that and reading all of those already got me tired lol
Hehe,I can understand where you're coming from. Most of the time we are the one who is getting pushed around after all. The only time we actually held some power over a devil,like being in full-control (not counting Levi cuz he did kinda force us to hurt him.) was probably with Zagan.
I have a feeling something similar might be going on with Belphie. He sounds a bit like a power bottom and a pillow prince. We will probably be the one doing most of the work but he will still have some authority over us. Then again,kings are kings for a reason.
It's a bit hard to dominate someone who literary rules a country,has amazing powers and has countless devils under his command.
One applause for Solomon for being the most versitile human in history! (Seriously his philia is confusing me. How can one person be such a kinky bitch. I feel like that would suit Asmo better tho...)
In any case,I belive if we are truly going to be the dom somewhere. And I mean an actual one (like I said,sex with the kings still feels like we aren't in control.A weak human is trying to dom a king of hell. There will always be a barrier.) will be with any of the nobles. While yes they are still devils and kind of in an elite,they still serve their respected kings. It could be easier to dominate them.
Gosh,I hope PB let's us have cuddly sex with someone,preferebly Amon. Rough sex is nice but I need to be comforted too/comfort someone.
(Also,I assure you,I will be updating that post for every new devil we get. Tho I have a feeling I will need to organize it a bit since it's on release dates)

ORDER UP!! PT 1.5
Tumblr media
Wordcount: 5k
Basicly just part 1 but with an extra 3.5k words, id rather you read this one instead, on the very small chance you've already read the first part theres this long space and red divider that signifies the new parts/part 1.5.
NOT BETAREAD (i used grammarly but whatevvv) & also cross posted on ao3
You worked at a rather unique restaurant. The fact that you landed such a well-paying and safe job was surprising, especially as you were quirkless. The thing is, people arenā€™t that fond of hiring quirkless people, especially if it was a well-respected job. They would take someone with a quirk over your quirkless ass any day, even if their quirk was useless for the job position.
It seems that the owner, Hyugo, either took pity or preferred quirkless people. Perhaps it was a mixture of both. He was very sympathetic to your desperation for the job, but he also said that ā€œquirkless people worked harderā€. He was right. The thing is, quirkless people have more to lose when it comes to their jobs. No matter how useless someone's quirk was, they could probably find a job that would utilize their natural-born talents.
The restaurant was interestingā€¦ to say the least. It was very high quality, with extremely high hygienic rules that even most restaurants didn't have in Japan. As kind as Hyugo was, he was the world's number one germaphobe. He prided himself in the quality of the customer service, if it wasn't good enough to serve to him, then it wasnā€™t good to serve to anyone in his restaurant. Most of the waiters wear a mask, even though it's not required, most of the workers just go above and beyond to ensure the hygienic quality of the food, you included. You all like your jobs, as laborious as it is, you get to meet interesting people, it's (somewhat) safe and the employees are pretty dope.
That brings you to now, you are serving an old man, two young men your age, one brunette wearing a black medical mask who seems to be scanning the place, the other with white arrow-shaped hair, andā€¦ a small toucan plushie-looking dudeā€¦ you wonder if thatā€™s a mutation or an emitter quirk. The old man is rather friendly despite the 3 men following having the opposite aura. Despite the glare of the brunette and blank face of the white-haired boy, the old man seems to be rather jolly.
ā€œNot a fan of germs are you?ā€ He says as he takes a seat, he takes a quick glance at the brunette who you can safely assume is a germaphobe- just like Hyugo. who's staring at you with malice.
ā€œOh- no, it's for hygienic reasons, the ownerā€™s a huge germaphobe. He takes the restaurant's hygiene very seriouslyā€ you respond as you get your notepad out. ā€œDo you need time to look over the menu? Or would you like to order your drinks and appetizers now?"
ā€œGive us a minute pleaseā€
ā€œAlright, I'll be back in a secondā€ You depart, going to check on other tables.
Youā€™re very speedy and efficient, you've been working for Hyugo for about 2 years. You've seen Hyugo at work for about a year before that, you're 17 now. You were young and needed a job after someā€¦ unfortunate events, ones you wouldn't like to remember. Since you've basically lived at the restaurant for the past 3 years you know it like the back of your hand.
You are serving the table with extreme proficiency. The brunette is conversing with the old man, with the old man talking more. The toucan dude is showing the other guy something on his phone while talking. Despite this you can't help but feel the burning gaze of the brunette, It feels like he's chastising your every move. Like your some random ass pest.
ā€œYouā€™re very good at your job? How old are you? You seem rather young." the elder asks you curiously, at his voice, the rest of the table goes quiet to listen in on your conversation. All four men staring at you, making you feel quite uncomfortable.
ā€œThank you, I can't afford to lose my jobā€ you laugh, though albeit awkwardly. ā€œIt's hard to find such a well-paying job being quirklessā€ You pause for a moment. ā€œAnd yes, I'm 17, I've known the owner for a while so I learned the ins and outs of the restaurant very early onā€. though your mouth is covered, your eyes convey a smile.
ā€œWow! You're very responsible and amicableā€ he chuckles turning to the brunette beside him. ā€œKai, you could learn a thing or two from themā€. The brunette looks back at you, his stare less malicious than before, but still malicious. You laugh along.
ā€œThank you, is there anything else I can get for you? Or will that be all?"
ā€œThat's allā€. You bow a little, before returning to your other duties, still mildly unnerved by the previous table. There was this sense of extreme seriousness and poison despite the old man's altruism. You have a feeling in your gut telling you there is something wrong with the Gold-eyed boy.
You feel the violent stare of the brunette as you work. It's different than when he first laid eyes on you. At first, he seemed to look at you like you were a bug, someone beneath him, unworthy of his presence. But now, it seems like he's looking at you as if you were a zoo animal. Both are bad, but the latter is better. you can tell heā€™s analyzing you, by the looks of it he seems anti-social.
They leave without issue, with the old man extremely pleased, bidding you a nice farewell as they leave, you respond with a ā€œCome again!" before looking away. The rest of the group kind of erks you.
What an odd bunch you think. However, you don't linger on that thought for long. You run into far more interesting and dangerous people on a daily. For exmaple, one time Sir Nighteye ate at the restaurant, thought you didn't know until a few weeks later when Arlan mentioned it. Another interesting thing about the restaurant is that even though its located a bit near a Hero agency (the aforementioned hero) it's located in a rather shady area, but its kind of like a neutral zone. The restaurant has this policy where anyone can come in as long as they don't cause trouble, (that includes villains and criminals) as long as they don't cause or bring trouble. Hyugo says that it's for the safety of his workers and the civilians who come in, which makes sense. Even though most heroes would dislike the idea.
The rest of the day goes without anything of note. You've finished your shift and are sitting at a table with your friend Chiyo, eating dinner. She's a kind curious girl, with shoulder-length grey-red hair, and bright ruby eyes. She's Hyugoā€™s niece and has a passion for culinary, so she works in the kitchen and on cleaning duty. Shes really passionate about the job and shes good at it too. Shes fuckinā€™ awsome, she was there for you at your worst, even when you weren't as stable, and was also kind of the reason you got the job. You owe her alot.
A few days later you end up serving for the same group of people, the old man flashing you a vivacious smile.
ā€œOh, it's you! How are you?" he asks as he sits down.
ā€œI'm good!ā€ you say flashing him a friendly smile, you scrunch your eyes as much as you can to get the message across, second nature from wearing a mask so often. ā€œI'm assuming you enjoyed your experience last time? How was it?ā€
ā€œYes, the food was nice! The chefs did an amazing job" he says looking to the rest of the group, silent, but they all give him a nod of agreeance. You feel awkward, you wonder why it's only the old man making conversation with you.
ā€œI'm sure they would be glad to hear thatā€ Youā€™re genuine, you recall that one time where one of the chefs was told by a family how good the food was, and she was visibly happy for the rest of the day. You smile remembering such a warm moment.
ā€œMake sure to tell ā€˜emā€
ā€œI will, it doesn't seem like much it, but it really makes their day.ā€ you pause for a bit, you can tell the brunette boy is annoyed by how much you talk. ā€œSo, how may I get you started?ā€
ā€œWe would all like water please,ā€ the white-haired boy says
ā€œAlright! I'll get that for you. Anything else?" you respond, slightly startled, you sort of expected only the old man to speak.
ā€œNo, thank youā€
ā€œAlright!" you scrunch your eyes and get their water.
Once again you feel golden eyes burning your back as you work. Seriously what was his problem? You wonder if they are going to become regulars, or maybe theyā€™ll get tired of this place after a few visits.
Two months have passed and they have indeed become regulars. This time, you see the same brunette and his white hair friend walk in, no old man or walking plushie in sight, which is new. For the past two months, they have come in nine times. In those nine visits you have come to find out that Kai, surname Chisaki is the elder man's successor. You can't tell if that's his son or his grandson. Irinaka has an emitter quirk, meaning he can freely change out of that plushie form when he wants. Though you don't know the full extent of his quirk and, you are kind of interested in his true form. Kurono, the white arrow-haired man, is Chisaki's childhood friend and close confidant. Its obvious they like this place, and they seem to have warmed up to you, despite not talking. The old man seems to be a bit of a yapper, doing the talking for them. You ended up mentioning the policy regarding villains and he seemed amused and delighted, for some reason that stuck out to out. You and him engaged in conversation each and every nine times he's visited, and by luck, you always ended up serving him.
It seems that streak will never reach ten. You notice the host places them on a table outside of your region, meaning that you won't serve them. Oh well, not my problem. Youā€™re about to go back to work before you realize you're making eye contact with Chisaki as he is led to his table. You avert your gaze, they make you kinda feel kinda awkward, especially since the old man isn't around, you canā€™t imagine how dry talking to them, or mainly Chisaki would be. Thank god you're not serving them today. Chisaki still barely talks and is extremely awkward with you. At first he was malicious but it seems heā€™s calmed down and learnt to accept your presence.
Out of curiosity, you look back at them and your co-worker who is going to serve them today. What takes you by surprise is the way Chisakis's face- though masked, contorts in disgust and offense when he sees your co-worker Haruo approach. His eyes immediately dart to you like a lost puppy, then back at Haruo with disgust, then back to you. You shrug while confused, a dumbfounded look on your face before returning to work.
You weren't expecting that.
But holy shit it was kind of cute...
...
"And you know what he did? He looked DISGUSTED, like Haruo being the one to serve him was a crime committed against his whole family, and then he looked at me and it wasā€¦ like cute? I donā€™t know how to describe it!!" you retell the events of earlier today to Chiyo.
"That's so cute! So you're basically his favorite waiter" she giggles as she pops a french fry into her mouth.
"I guess so, I think it's more like that just what he's used to" You take a sip of your drink
"What do you mean?" she cocks her head to the side questioningly.
"I... I dunno? He doesn't seem very knowledgeable about social interaction, he seems very stern. Uptight, like there's always a stick up his ass "
"Ooou okay," she pauses for a moment ā€œIs he cute? Whatā€™s he look like?ā€
"Okay so he has short fluffy brown hair, and his eyes are yellow, like golden, and his eyes are very sharp I guess-"
"Oo"
"he dresses formally, i feel like he has very little sense of fashion, and hes def anti social. He also has 3 piercings on his uhh..." you think for a moment. "Left ear"
"Bad boy?" she says jokingly.
"Yeahā€ you chuckle, ā€œI think he hates everyone except the people he eats with, oh yeah his bottom eyelashes are LONG" You elongate the O.
"Oooo so he's like..."
"Pretty"
"Pretty" she giggles "is he like... A black cat, you know those guys in romance manga."
"Seriously?" you chuckle
"bag him or something, maybe heā€™s into you! "
"I'm not gonna hit on a customer"
"Hit on who?" Arlan, a co-worker and also a friend buts in.
"One of the new regulars is cute" Chiyo explains
"You can try taking him out or something, but leave me out of it" you defend yourself.
"Ooo what's he look like?" Arlan asks, and Chiyo explains Chisaki's appearance to Arlan.
"Ohh..." he pauses, "I think I saw him earlier, was Haruo serving him?" he sits next to Chiyo.
"Yeah!" she exclaims
"Bro he does not like Haruo"
"I know" she giggles "he's already gotten used to [name], hopefully heā€™s into themā€
"Oooooh, you know what, he is kinda hot though, he has this whole bad boy aesthetic going on with himā€
"Seriously? You reaaaaaalllyyy gotta show me him" she whines.
"Next time I see him I'll bring you" you affirm her.
"Alright!".
A few days go by, you're wiping down one of your tables with Clorox wipes as you're about to go on lunch break. Suddenly you see Arlan to your left sprinting- trying to sprint but, also staying modest and civil in the middle of a rather fancy restaurant and it's honestly the funniest thing you've seen. You laugh at his stupid antics.
ā€œBRo- the- theā€ he stumbles on his words and he looks behind you. you turn to your right and see the hostess placing Chisaki and his group in your area. You nod to her in understanding, then you look back at Arlan who smiles at you. He whisper-shouts ā€œill be with Chiyoā€
After you finish wiping down the table, you dispose of your gloves in the nearest trash can, putting on new ones as you walk towards the table. You cock your head to the side in a friendly manner, scanning the participants. Chisaki, Kurono, Irinaka, no old man, but some blonde older looking man in his stead.
ā€œHello? How may I get you started? The usual?ā€
ā€œMhm, thanksā€ Kurono answers, you can tell Chisaki is starring at you. You consider taking a look at him before Kurono speaks up.
ā€œOut of curiosity, where were you last time?ā€
ā€œOh? Oh, uhh, I don't think you guys were placed in my workspace.ā€
ā€œOh okay,ā€ he turns away in understanding, before taking another glance at you. It seems like he wants to say something but he takes no action in doing so.
ā€œIs that all?ā€ you ask hastily, and you feel awkward.
ā€œyeaā€
You turn to get their drinks, and as youā€™re filling up their cups you think about Chiyo. Well, you're about to go on lunch break. You take the drinks along with you as you go to the area in which she usually resides. She isnā€™t there, huh? You turn back, there's no point in wasting time. As you're walking back you pass by the bar and you see Chiyo sitting next to Arlan. Arlan notices you and nudges Chiyoā€™s shoulder before telling her something. She gets up and pats her uniform and walks over to you.
ā€œSooooā€¦. You're about to go on lunch break right?ā€ she inquiries.
ā€œYup, you know what I'm about to ask.ā€ The two of you giggle.
You make your way to the table, the blonde and Irinaka engaged in conversation. Kurono seems hyper-aware of the place because he notices you immediately. His attention flying towards you catches Chisakiā€™s, who now has your full attention, giving you and Chiyo a better look at his face. Chiyos expression lights up as she whispers something in your ear.
ā€œOhhhā€¦. My god. He's so..ā€ she says in awe ā€œWhy is he wearing a maskā€
ā€œHyugo syndromeā€
ā€œOohhhhā€.
You place their drinks down in front of them, Chisaki watching every action. You wonder if the others at the table have noticed, Kurono definitely has. You wonder why they watch you so intensely. It reminds you of how Arlan said that he probably had a puppy crush on you a few weeks ago. You found it so silly then, but now you are actually considering it. Chiyo emerges next to you, Chisakis eyebrows furrow in question.
ā€œSo my lunch break is about to start. This is Chiyo, she will be with you while I'm unavailableā€. Your gesture towards her and she waves to them excitedly. Kurono scans her nodding, before looking at Chisaki, whose face immediately fell at the information. You had to hold back a giggle. ā€œI'll be back in about 30 minutes.ā€ you turn and depart, taking a few glances towards the table and Chiyo.
You watch as she tries to make conversation but is immediately shut down by Chisaki whoā€™s clearly not interested in chit chat. What the hell? You suppress another giggle, you really were his favorite. You don't know how to feel about that.
You come back 30 minutes later to an unnerved Chiyo, no group in sight. You give her a curious look and she tells you what happened. She tried starting a small conversation with them but was met with no enthusiasm, then the Irinaka (whom she referred to as ā€œmonochrome toucanā€) was going to call her a noisy bitch but it seems the blonde man whose name she didn't get cut him off. Overall it was not a fun experience and Chisaki seemed annoyed with her every move.
ā€œHoly shit?ā€
ā€œYeah, you know Arlan is right, you are his favoriteā€ she giggles seemingly unfazed.
ā€œSorry for, uh putting you in that situationā€ You rub your neck.
ā€œNah, you're goodā€ she reassures you, ā€œthe Kurono guy was kind of cute, he and the blonde man were the only ones who like- tried being civil.ā€ she giggles. You scrunch your eyes and smile along with her.
Itā€™s Sunday, the restaurant closes early. Hyugo sent you on an errand, for cleaning supplies. You just came out of one of the local stores, six bags in hand, and you're heading towards the next. Thankfully everything in this area is very walkable, maybe you treat yourself. Youā€™re at the crosswalk waiting for it to signal you to walk. There are many people out right now, most students, are coming home from cram school. So you're not surprised when someone, or rather some people walk up next to you.
ā€œOh! Itā€™s you!ā€ The elderly man laughs. ā€œYou look so different without your mask it was hard to recognize you!ā€ you turn to him, and next to him are Chisaki, Kurono, and the blonde man.
ā€œOh! How are you?ā€ you ask
ā€œGood, just picked up these two from cram school. We like going on walks after, what are you doing?ā€ he points to your bags.
ā€œO-oh! Just running errands for the restaurant. Cleaning supplies."
ā€œIs it heavy?ā€
ā€œNah! I used to i-ā€
ā€œChisaki, why don't you help her!ā€
His ā€œOh!" comes out a bit muffled due to his mask. He hesitates for a moment, before approaching you signaling for you to give him a few bags.
ā€œIt's fine!ā€ you try to assure him
ā€œNo, I insistā€ you hear him speak, something he does rarely. This is the first time he speaks to you though. He seems annoyed at having to help you. He looks down at you, making eye contact. You two stay still for a moment.
ā€œFineā€¦" you falter, handing him two bags. You even out the bags so two are on each hand.
ā€œAre you going back to the restaurant?ā€ the old man asks, you nod. ā€œdo you not go to cram school?ā€ he asks Curiously. You shake your head, and ā€œoh I seeā€ comes out in response.
Heā€™s quiet for a while before asking, ā€œHowā€™s school then? Getting good grades- or are you a troublemaker?ā€ His last sentence seems aimed at someone in particular.
ā€œUhm, I get good grades- except for chemistry! I stay out of trouble for the most part, I guess.ā€
ā€œFor the most part?ā€ He gives you a curious look
ā€œWell most kids like do something bad at this age, at least once, like drugs or something. I donā€™t reallyā€¦ do anythingā€
ā€œHmmā€¦ā€ he takes a moment, pondering.
ā€œNo you should be proud, donā€™t ruin your life or abandon your morals, it starts small but it might spiral downhill. Stay out of trouble.ā€ Your a bit taken by his wisdom. You canā€™t put a finger on it but you canā€™t help but feel like his words are also aimed at someone. He turns to Chisaki, your eyes widen slightly. He pauses slightly before looking back at you. ā€œChemistry, huh? Chisakiā€™s got a knack for chemistry. If you want he could tutor you. You seem like the right crowdā€. Chisaki looks like he's about to object but decides against it. You're in front of the restaurant. The old man looks a you and hands you a card, you take it and them as Chisaki hands you your bags. You wave them off and head into the restaurant. You set your bags down and look at the card, ā€˜Shie hassaikaiā€™ it says with a number beneath it and its symbol on top. You take a mental note to search them up. For now, you focus on the bags at handā€¦ FUCK, you needed to go to the second store. You'll do that after school monday.
You head upstairs to your room after putting the groceries away. You write down a little note for hyugo and pull out your phone. In the search bar you search up ā€˜shie hassaikaiā€™.
Its a yakuza group.
Oh! Thats nice, your a bit taken back, when you think if the yakuza you think of some crude thugs, or like in the video games. But, they were, regular, normal people. You think back to the conversation you had with the elderly man. it seemed chisaki was a delinquent, hmm. You dont know how to feel at this newfound information. Oh well, you sigh and get ready for bed.
While you're getting ready for school your mind drifts to Chisaki. You remembered how the old man mentioned he was good at chemistry, you wonder if he was good at all his classes. He looks smart. As you leave and get set for your expedition to the school you wonder what school he goes to. Do yakuza go to fancy-schmancy schools? Is he rich? What route does he take to school? What cram school does he go to, is it a fancy one? Tons of questions, no answers.
You meet up with Chiyo where your paths intertwine. She greets you and you two go on with your way to school.
The two of you sit in your seats. She pulls out her stationary, all cute, adorned with stickers and bear accessories alike, and that one Vocaloid, IA. You pull out your necessities for the first class. Waiting for class to start.
Hyugo, albeit disappointed, understood why you failed to get the groceries yesterday. So, here you are, walking home from the store, with yesterday's unfinished errands being the mission. Chiyo had to rush home to the restaurant for some kitchen prep or whatever. You make it inside the big store and head for the cleaning aisle. You're scanning the shelves for the required items while playing with your hoodie strings. You pick them out and place them in the basket. You wonder what other students who have cram school are doing, some are probably at piano lessons or doing sports. You don't know how to feel, education isnā€™t going to be your thing, unfortunately, you are a blue-collar worker through and through. And Japan is extremely competitive, maybe if you really wanna pursue your passion you could, but that's only a dream. It's okay though, you're kind of content with working at the restaurant for the rest of your life. It's well paying and you owe it to Hyugo, for taking you in, and Chiyo for being by your side.
You pay for the items and head out. You know the routes and how to get around especially when it comes to stores and shopping. When Hyugo first took you in, you were too young to actually work at the restaurant, so he had you doing errands in the meantime. There's this shortcut to the restaurant, it's in an alleyway, more like a collection of alleyways, but every time youā€™ve gone through it, nothing happened. It's sketchy looking but no one really resides in it. Everyone pretty much just uses it as a shortcut. You walk in, pulling your hood up. Some of the walk is silent, until some dude pops up, okay. Weird, but you try not to think too much about it. You speed up your walking, just a little bit so he doesn't notice. Unfortunately, he did notice, and his pace accelerates along with yours. You start feeling worried now. You know he's gonna try and pull some shit, what the fuck, you've just gotta make it to the other side with other pedestrians or something. He speeds up, fuck shit- Hes just about to grab you-
ā€œRyo.ā€ The voice comes from one of the other halls. It's that of a hunter hunting down its prey, It gives you chills. The man who was once following you stops in his tracks. So do you, you should get out, but, curiosity is getting the better of you.
ā€œKai.ā€
ā€œHaven't I told you to stay off our turf?ā€ the voice asks maliciously, but somewhat muffled.
ā€œFuck off, i don't gotta do what eā€™r your bitchass wants.ā€ He grabs you, taking you by surprise. Whatthefuck leavemeoutofit. By the footsteps, you can only assume the man is coming closer. Holy shit, are you gonna die here. Hes surely gonna do something illegal, and he probably won't allow a witness. You shut your eyes and the man lets go, you're looking at the ground, frozen in fear. The two men get closer, and the dude who was following you extends his arm like he's gonna fight, too bad the other guy does it first.
Your cathartic, one second two guys were about to square up, and now ones blood is splattered. You have to fight the urge to let out a scream and you look at the perpetrator who seemed like he was about to kill you too. You two make eye contact and realize the two of you are familiar with each other, he stops his hand in the air. He steps back.
ā€œthat villain policy, does it still apply?ā€ You're dumbfounded, but reply anyway.
ā€œYeahā€¦ā€
ā€œGood.ā€ he pauses,
ā€œYou, uhh..ā€ you trail off, you're having trouble trying to think straight. ā€œThanks for helping meā€¦ I guessā€. His eyes widen,
ā€œI'm not a heroā€ he emphasizes the ā€˜notā€™.
ā€œI never said that, I just thanked you.ā€ He lets out a huff, and then he turns to walk away, ā€œUh thanks! I mean it, I owe you!.ā€
He continues walking away. you take that as a sign to do the same. Walking back to the restaurant trying to pretend like everything is fine.
You look at everything you can, anything to get your mind off what just went down. It happened so fast, in a matter of minutes. It was almost unreal, did it even happen? Or were you just fucking making shit up? Was that his fucking quirk? Fucking exploding people. Jesus. Does he do this often? You exhale shakily, just pretend everythings fine you tell yourself.
Clearly, you did a bad fucking job at it. When you enter from the back you run into hyugo.
ā€œHoly shit you good?ā€, he asks you franticly. Arlan, who was in the vicinity looks your way, his face contorting into worry. God, it feels like all eyes are on you, even though they aren't, the restaurant is pretty busy, and it's only Hyugo and Arlan, you look beside Hyugoā€¦ and the elderly man who accompanies Chisaki, upon seeing him you panic more. His face went from worry to curiosity.
ā€œN-Nothing. It's fine.ā€ you stammer out, wow, soooooo convincing. ā€œI don't wanna talk about itā€. It seems they all got the memo, except the old man, who approaches you.
ā€œWas it Chisakiā€. Right on the fucking bullet, you suck at lying and you don't know how you're gonna get out of this. You stare at him stupidly. ā€œI see.ā€ his face darkens, and you feel the need to defend him. If Chisaki killed that man, maybe he would kill you for tattle-telling on him.
ā€œN-noā€ you stammer on the ā€˜Nā€™ an ungodly amount of times, youre sure you look like a dumbass right now. ā€œHe uh, I guess saved me from some creepy uh dude. Uh, but it wasn'tā€¦ in a veryā€¦ niceā€¦ way.ā€ your voice gets quieter with every word. He looks at you with an unreadable expression. ā€œHe didn't hurt me though!ā€ you try to salvage it franticly. You two go quiet for a moment before he responds.
ā€œOkay, I understandā€
You don't remember much after you, just waking up in bed. Your mind is groggy as you try to remember the events ofā€¦ you check your phone, yesterday. You recall Hyugo telling you to go to bed, that you didn't need to work considering the shaken-up condition you were in. You sighed in bed. You look back at your phone and scroll through the notifications. Nothing, thank god Arlan didn't tell Chiyo, she probably would've been on your ass asking if you were okay. God, what the hell? You bury your face in your hands.

P. Paperjamā€”
This one is gonna be long but I can tell you know exactly what you've signed up for
First impression: I thought he was an annoying baby because of reasons you can probably guess. I mostly tolerated his presence in the videos I watched because I really liked errorink when I first joined the fandom, so he was just "kid that was there sometimes"
Impression now: HE IS EVERYTHING TO ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fr my favorite character of all timeāœØ Back when I was exclusively looking at utmv content on youtube, I came across this video, and it was my first ever look at pj not being that annoying baby, which dominoed into me trying to find more about this jerk of a character, because omg this is what's actually canon?? which led me here :3 genuinely obsessed with their story, and by now my opinion of errorink literally traded with them lmao. Those dad guys are cool but they're always in the background of the true star forreal
Favorite moment: this
Idea for a story: I have way too many of these........ But I've been seeing ppl be more broad with this answer so I will too: I like when people acknowledge how garbage she's doing mentally. She didn't just spawn and start acting like an asshole to everyone, a hard childhood shaped who she is now and so the bitterness just makes sense (people tend to forget/not know/acknowledge that she was actually shown to be a pretty chill, soft spoken kid. years of neglect is what pushed her to leave) This next part isn't like, a rule for anyone lmao. but this question is for my idea and what my idea is, is that most if not every single one of my pj variants have got parental issues (even if a lot smaller in some cases) because said issues are a staple for this guy atp (to meeee)
Unpopular opinion: I think the pj and fresh dynamic can be fun without shipping or the uncle fresh interpretation. They're both grown and get into shenanigans (also I think it's funny if pj initially just hung around the guy because he's literally walking error repellent, and since fresh is unable to posses pj the strategy just kinda became "hmm having a friend makes me look more normal, I can live with this")
Favorite relationship: omnipj forever and always šŸ’œšŸ©·I used to go through their ship tag like every day when I discovered them I swear, they are genuinely the cutest thing ever to me. They used to be my true otp, (fr never seriously considered shipping either of them with another person) but thenn I met a certain someone and got converted lmao. Now I've got 2 worlds featuring the ship of pj x lux (including a shared au with the aforementioned someone, hi tobišŸ’œ) And no matter if it's just one of them or both, I love seeing the softer side of pj's personality that had been buried for so long resurfacing again around the people she loves <33333 And part 2 of this answer because nearly every dynamic with pj intrigues me like crazy: ink man. that freaking guyyYYYYYY THEY MAKE ME SAD. going back to an earlier point, pj didn't just come out hating them. they tried and tried and tried to have a relationship, and we know how that ended. My interpretations of them rarely get to the point of pj running away and being forgotten, but there's always this.. disconnect, yknow? (I am a huge fan of good dad ink guys I just tend to douse their relationship with pj in a little flame before they get to the healing partšŸ™) (And bonus since we're on the topic of parents, the fact that pj still wanted to on some level appeal to even error after the things he's done to them is absolutely tragic, and all this put together really adds to my reading of pj as a character being one who believes in the idea of having to work to deserve to be respected/cared for) Uhhh part 3 I promise this one is shorter: Palette and pj are the siblings ever to me. I really like sibling dynamics that are adult/teen + kid, (ik palette is canonically an adult now just let me have this) plus they're opposites in a ton more ways and play off of each other really well. I believe that pj was not happy in the slightest about being an older sibling to him in the beginning, but they always grow to love each other <3
Favorite headcanon: I don't think I have a favorite tbh, but here's one that applies to every pj I've written so far: they are farsighted, but refuse to get/wear glasses all the time because "it's not that bad"
ask game

Vini loosing the ballon dor is the real karma for ignoring and ghosting Bellingham from all of you madridista
Club should of been fair and not supporting one over other cuz Bellingham reached the euros final and played great only if he won it it would of been him 100% and no one would of said anything why ? Cuz heā€™s whole season great he deserves it even when he didnā€™t score he played great saving our chances by defending and winning duels and returning balls to attackers and sacrificing physically but as long as heā€™s not scoring no one loves him
This is the KARMA
I don't believe you actually believe this :) You know why Vinicius didn't win? Because for months there was a campaign against him. If you read the statements of the journalists responsible for the votes, you will understand what a big circus this is and how they did everything to prevent him from getting more votes. I respect that someone considers Rodri their favorite, I really do! But I have to laugh when someone explains it by saying that it's because he was a student and doesn't have social media xD Or another one who talks about the 2022/2023 season!!! Or another (who is a die-hard Barca fan) doesn't give Vinicius ANY points because he claims he doesn't influence Real Madrid's game xD Is someone like that objective or call himself an expert? Please! When Vinicius became the favourite after the Champions League final because, whether anyone likes it or not, he was our leader in that competition, they started "looking" for a rival for him. They started changing the criteria, they started changing the rules. Why? Because Vinicius is uncomfortable. Someone will say, why Rodri and not Carvajal, since he won the Champions League and the Euro (competitions taken into account)? Because Carva is from Real Madrid! And the fact that Real Madrid is in conflict with UEFA and La Liga doesn't help. I wrote that Vinicius is the "Ballon d'Or of the people" like Karim two years ago. Why? There have always been some controversies, but I have never seen reactions like these. The fact that Rodri was booed by people before the gala, or that people shouted "VINI!" before the announcement even though they already knew the truth, says it all. Why is this happening? Because people love players like that. He can be controversial, but when he starts dancing with the ball people hold their breath. People see the difference, the problem is that there are those who ignore it because they don't like him or they are antimadridistas. And that's not what it should be about. So no my dear, it's not Karma but pure politics. What's more, Real Madrid knows more about this than anyone thinks and I know that sooner or later someone will tell what happened behind closed doors. As for Jude, stop making him out to be a martyr or some other p**sy, it's starting to get annoying. It may surprise you, but when I spoke to other Madridistas, opinions were divided between Vinicius, Jude and Dani. It was the same on various forums and on portal X. Any win would make us very happy! What's more, in Madrid it was believed that Jude had a better Euro individually than Rodri, who was replaced in the final by Zubimendi and there was no visible difference. And if England had to replace Jude with someone else they would have bigger problems than Spain. So don't say that someone underestimated him because no one did it, but in the end you have to bet on the one who has a better chance. Vinicius began to be supported the most when it turned out that he was the favorite. Also by Jude himself! This is called strategy. And don't lie that nobody "loves him" because he doesn't score goals! Don't make up nonsense! Madridistas appreciate the work he is currently doing and respect him even more. Everyone wants him to return to his position and only someone crazy would say that it's his fault. Seriously, I don't know where you get such things, but I would advise you not to look there anymore.

RULES AND GUIDELINES
*IMPORTANT: This event is not very professional compared to other ship weeks. It is primarily hosted for our friend group, so please don't take anything too seriously. Harsh language and somewhat off-color humor are the norm already in Hetalia, and it's very present in this event as well. So if that makes you uncomfortable, you have no obligation to participate or look at anything pertaining to Itager week at all (just block the tag, no hard feelings!). Ship weeks are all about having a good time together! So I hope everyone will understand that nothing is personal and if you don't like what you see, it's okay to walk away! It's no good if YOU aren't having a party swag time, since this is all about Itager, and the true spirit of Itager is having fun!!!!
Use the tag #itagerweek and @ this blog for any submissions created
Please indicate somewhere in your post what prompt you are creating for
All mediums accepted
Do not do any stupid shit like submit AI artwork or plagarize someone else's stuff
R-18 content is allowed! But please CLEARLY indicate that it is R-18 somewhere on your submission
If your post is not shared on this blog, there's a high chance it was simply missed or a glitch with Tumblr happened! No biggie, it's fine to DM this account if you're worried that we ignored your creation. We are busy people and especially with how buggy Tumblr can be sometimes, it's more than likely your post just got lost at sea, so don't feel anxious and just talk to us about it! :) *Please do not spam us though, use your common sense OK?
Speaking of common sense, NO GAY SHIT. STUPID SHIT. B-B-B-B-BULLSHIT. OR WORST OF ALL, GERITA. YAOI ONLY. This is Itager week! Nothing against you for enjoying Gerita, but please be respectful that this is for Itager specifically.
What's the difference between Gerita and Itager? Read this post.
ABSOLUTELY NO NAZIS OR FASCISM OR INSENSITIVE CURRENT WORLD EVENTS OR ANYTHING THAT IS MORE POLITICALLY OFFENSIVE THAN WHAT IS ACTUALLY IN HETALIA. This is something that doesn't go under the umbrella catagory of "stupid shit" because this is beyond stupid. You were blessed to be reincarnated as a human instead of an ant. Use your common sense. This is yaoi anime fan art, boy, treat it with some fucking respect. Don't play with me.
Have fun!!!!!!!!

JEJSJDAH HI making myself known is actually terrifying #socialanxietywhooop but here we go
I JUST FINISHED READING FIREBENDER'S GUIDE + DELETED SCENES AND OH. MY. LORD. quite literally obsessed I'm sitting here at work zoning out because it has left such an impact on me...where do I even start?
okay so I recently got back into atla because well I just started feeling so nostalgic?? and a zukka spiral later led me to your fic (one of my favorite jujutsu kaisen authors had your fic bookmarked. I knew I had to do it.) and well!!
the characterization. I'm absolutely obsessed. the way you wrote sokka as a cherry dude but he still has issues!! the depiction of said issues. zuko as he tries and tries so hard to do better even when he fails...personal favorite scene that made me giggle was when he ran back to apologize to li and lo btw cackled out loud on public transportation
but I guess what I'm trying to say is that firebender's guide, to me, feels like a really good depiction of how startlingly flawed and human we all are. like. not inherently bad but not all good, because no one is ever all good. it feels like such a good character study of zuko and all that he is since realizing only he can regain his own honor. it's just...how do I even express how lovely and raw and real it is in the best way?
AND THE WAY YOU WROTE ZUKKA. giggles. they're so!! even when they're mad at each other they have. a certain understanding. it's expanding on what we know about canon so beautifully. the gentle way sokka loves zuko while being mean enough about it because zuko just needs a little push when it comes to certain things. the desperate way zuko needs sokka but realizes that it can be gentle and fond. just. [incoherent screaming] THE WAY YOU WRITE YEARNING OHHHHH. MY.
and that's not even covering the wonderful way the plot took me for a ride. it was so beautifully crafted. I wish I could be you :") I was just as immersed in the larger plot as I was with the zukka dynamic. the worldbuilding ahdhajdj I respect SERIOUSLY respect the amount of research and dedication you put into this fic. genuinely. it all came together to craft such a beautiful picture and I'm HERE FOR IT!
anyhow. concluding what essentially became a rant. tysm for blessing the world with this fic šŸ™
Hey! okay, sorry this has been sitting in my inbox for a week because it's such a lovely message and I'm so touched that someone is reaching out to me about this fic. It was my first proper, completed, novel-length fic and I wrote it during COVID lockdown when I like, jobless with no outlet at all for my mental energy.
The process of writing the fic taught me a lot about plotting--I went the screenwriter's route and used the Save the Cat beat sheet (you can google it, it's basically a screenwriter's tool for plotting out movies, which is a medium that doesn't take shaggy and meandering very well. There's an excel version for novelists here: Elizabeth Davisā€™sĀ Save the Cat Beat Sheet Spreadsheet for Novels)
I didn't read this book back then, but a book that really helps with worldbuilding is John Truby's The Anatomy of Story. I think some of the best books on plotting and storytelling are done by screenwriters.
And about the fic in general--ATLA is such a beautiful show and the zukka summer of 2020 was SUCH a crazy time because everyone was so desperate for a mental escape, I'm happy it still holds up!! I love both characters. I love thinking through the moral implications of the history in ATLA's worldbuilding and playing with the fantasy rules of that universe. Thanks so much for reading and thanks so much for brightening my day by telling me about it <3

Ų§Ł„Ų³Ł„Ų§Ł… Ų¹Ł„ŁŠŁƒŁ… ŲŒ
Hope youā€™re doing well sis,
Id love your advice on a matter of thatā€™s okay. I didnā€™t tell anyone yet and I donā€™t have much time so wanted to get your input on what should I do.
So Iā€™m 27, Iā€™ve never dated, been asked for marriage or known someone. Lately, I decided to join a Muslim dating app as it seemed like the safest option since Iā€™m now seriously considering marriage. I got matched with someone and we exchanged numbers. Itā€™s only been 2 weeks or even 3 and he asked to meet in person. I already have my photos public in that app so he saw me. I tried to avoid it a few times but he asked again and I told him when Iā€™m back in town, and today I told him that Iā€™ll be in town on Wednesday and told him my plan for the day and told him where Iā€™ll be since I have an appointment. Now my plan was to just see him in person and if he asked me to go to a cafe or something to tell him that there is nothing between us and I donā€™t know him enough to go somewhere with him but at the same time I donā€™t know if should even meet him in the first place but also I know that this is a part of the process in general so anyone Iā€™ll meet online theyā€™ll ask to meet in person first. I didnā€™t tell my mom because she gets her hopes up easily and wanted to confirm first if itā€™s legit then tell her. And another thing is that Iā€™m afraid he will stop talking after we meet because I donā€™t look like the photos or whatever since I use filters all the time or because I gave him hopes that we will meet but I just walked out on him. Would love to know what do you think or if any sister reading this can share her thoughts would be so helpful. Ų¬Ų²Ų§Łƒ Ų§Ł„Ł„Ł‡
Łˆ Ų¹Ł„ŁŠŁƒŁ… Ų§Ł„Ų³Ł„Ų§Ł… Łˆ Ų±Ų­Ł…Ų© Ų§Ł„Ł„Ł‡ Łˆ ŲØŲ±ŁƒŲ§ŲŖŁ‡ beautiful ŲŒ
I am going to make this short and straight to the point. It's very simple: religiously speaking it's a No. No you can't meet him in person all by yourself. I am not going to judge the whole Muslim dating app thing. I am saying that no you shouldn't be meeting this guy outside all by yourself, especially that your family doesn't know. That is what I know. What you do is up to you sweetie. I know things, circumstances, culture, and conditions on a practical level in life are different from textbook religious rules, I know the environment and the lifestyle allow some things or make them seem normal, I really know that and I am not judging because I am very familiar with such environments, I grew up in one. But now I know better, and I can't not tell you that you shouldn't be doing this.
Here is how this situation could get back on the correct way according to what our deen says, at this point, if he really likes you or has good intentions toward you, he should ask for your father or your brother's number, and/ or come to your house. This step doesn't have to be a big deal, it shouldn't mean that there is an engagement or a proposal, this is only the first step, the right way, for getting to know you, or more correctly asking for permission to get to know you. If things didn't work out, that's fine we move on with our lives it is not the end of the world. And if he didn't like you because you don't look like the pictures then he'd be a shallow person and you're better off.
So if I were you right now, I'd cancel the meeting and I'd tell him that I investigated and found out that it was impermissible in Islam to meet like that, and if he really wants to get to know me, here is my father's number, set up a meeting and come to my house and we will go from there.
This might sound hard but in Islam, a woman is supposed to be strong and "Ų¹Ų²ŁŠŲ²Ų©" precious, she is designed to be, and to hold herself as a queen, she is the one wanted and sought after, she is the desired and they are supposed to work hard to get to her. And in life, you are treated the way you put yourself or carry yourself, so if you carry yourself with respect, finesse, dignity, grace, you will be treated that way āœØ
I will leave the floor to any sister who can help or has any opinion on the matter.
I really hope you take my opinion into consideration honey.
May Allah swt guide you to do the right thing, ameen šŸ¤

Mitchell Sprite & Relationship chart
Made Mitty a sprite ^o^ Thx once again to @/alchemivich for such a great library of assets!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
A few key relationships explained below ^v^
Vil & Mitchell: Mitchell greatly respects and admires Vil! They get along fairly well, but Mitty gets extremely intimidated by Vils beauty and success and thus admires from afar more often then not. Vil on the other hand simply knows Mitty as a hard worker and fan in Pomefiore. As long as Mitty's fangirling doesn't cause problems, Vil doesn't mind him.
Rook & Mitchell: Mitty is a bit scared of Rook and his antics. Being a beastmen and having heard about Rooks silly charades, Mitty makes sure to put some distance between the two. Rook is a bit interested in Mitty and his chatty nature.
Silver & Mitchell: Friends thanks to Lilia's introduction. Mitchell gets along with Silver and enjoys talking nonstop to him, even if he falls asleep. Silver, when he is awake during Mitty's speeches, tries to lead Mitty into a better direction. Silver acts as a sort of guiding hand, showing Mitty how to be kinder to others.
Lilia & Mitchell: Mitchell respects Lilia's passion during Pop Music Club and strives to be more like Lilias bubbly and friendly personality. Mitty sometimes visits Lilia outside of club for advice. Lilia doesn't mind Mitty's brash personality too much, knowing they have much room for growth! Lilia also acts as a guide to show Mitty more proper ways of communicating and being more aware of others feelings.
Cater & Mitchell: Their relationship is a bit complex. Mitty greatly appreciates Cater for having brought Mitty to the Pop Music Club, teaching him about Magicam, and for always listening to his rants. Mitty considers Cater to be a very close friend, one of his only best friends even. However, Cater does not think the same. Cater was excited to meet someone highly interested in magicam and social medias etc, but after teaching Mitty more, he end up resenting Mitty. Seeing and having to hear Mitty's ego rage and grow, makes him dislike the peacock boy. He blames himself partly for Mitty's egoistic behavior and wishes he could say something to change it, but he's too scared he'll make things worse. Cater will sometimes hide from Mitty or redirect him to Riddle or Lilia to avoid feeling too stressed.
Riddle & Mitchell: Mitty adores Riddle. Riddle gave Mitty his first 'compliment' and ever since, Mitty has been trying to recruit Riddle into being an idol with him. Its Mitty's way of saying I think we'd be great together! Thus Mitty will bother Riddle anytime he is visiting Heartslaybul. Riddle hates Mitty's behavior and constantly tries to reprimand Mitty, but since Mitty technically isn't from Heartslaybul and not often breaking rules, it's hard for Riddle to regulated the weirdo. He refuses to become an idol and even is offended by the idea.
Leona & Mitchell: Mitty stays as far from Leona as possible. Leona made one threat of eating Mitty like a chicken for squawking too loudly while he was sleeping. Mitty took it quite seriously.
And thats it for Mitty! ^o^ Mitty is easily intimidated and tends to be quite egoistic so it's easy for people to either A) want to bully him or B) Ignore him completely. Hopefully this pretty boy can get his act together and make friend properly >.< Thanks for reading about Mitty!

order up! Pt. 1
Tumblr media
1.5K words
AN: yes the header is the shinonome valentines card, i felt it encapsulated the aesthetic of the restaurant really wellā€¦
forgive me for how ooc chisaki is </3 // NOT BETA READ
Im probably gonna rewrite / edit :/ fix this
You worked at a rather unique restaurant. The fact that you landed such a well paying and safe job was surprising, especially as you were quirkless. The thing is, people arenā€™t that fond of hiring quirkless people, especially if it was a well respected job. They would take someone with a quirk over your quirkless ass anyday, even if their quirk was usless for the job position.
It seems that the owner, Hyugo, either took pity or preferred quirkless people. Perhaps it was a mixture of the both. He was very sympathetic to your desperation for the job, but he also said that, ā€œquirkless people worked harderā€. He was right.
The thing is quirkless people have more to lose when it comes to their jobs. NO matter how useless someone's quirk was, they could probably find a job that would utilize their natural-born talents.
The restaurant was interestingā€¦ to say the least. It was very high quality, with extremely high hygienic rules that even most restaurants didn't have in Japan. As kind as Hyugo was, he was the world's number one germaphobe. He prided himself in the quality of the customer service, if it wasn't good enough to serve to him, then it wasnā€™t good to serve to anyone in his restaurant. Most of the waiters wear a mask, even though it's not required, most of the workers just go above and beyond to ensure the hygienic quality of the food, you included. You all like your jobs, as laborious as it is, you get to meet interesting people.
That brings you to now, you are serving an old man, two young men your age, one brunette wearing a black medical mask and the other with silver arrow-shaped hair, andā€¦ a small, plushie-looking dudeā€¦ you wonder if thats a mutation quirk, or an emitter quirk. The old man is rather friendly, despite being yakuza, at least youthink, or hes part of some organized crime organization. The restaurant has a policy regarding villans and criminals, if they dont cause trouble, then you didn't see anything. The man seems to have a permanent smile.
ā€œNot a fan of germs are you?ā€ He says as he takes a seat, he takes a quick glance at the brunnette, whos staring at you with malice.
ā€œOh- no, its for hygienic reasons, the ownerā€™s a huge germaphobe. He takes the restaurants hygiene very seriouslyā€ you respond as you get your notepad out. ā€œDo you need time to look over the menu? Or would you like to order your drinks and appetizers now?"
ā€œGive us a minute pleaseā€
ā€œAlright, ill be back in a secondā€ you depart fron the table, going to check on other tables.
Your very speedy and efficient, you've been working for Hyugo for about 2 years? You've seen Hyugo at work for about a year before that, your 17 now. You were young and needed a job after someā€¦ unfortunate events, ones you wouldn't like to remember. Since you've basically lived at the restaurant for the past 3 years you know it like the back of your hand.
Your serving the table with the pressumed yakuza men with extreme proffiency, the brunnette and the white haired men are conversing, however you cant help but feel the bruning gaze of the brunnete, as if he is chastising your every move.
ā€œYouā€™re very good at your job? How old are you? You seem rather young." the elder asks you curiously, at his voice, the rest of the table goes quiet to listen in on your conversation. All four men starring at you, making you feel quite uncomfortable.
ā€œThank you, I can't afford to lose my jobā€ you laugh, though albeit awkwardly. ā€œIts hard to find such a well paying job being quirklessā€ you pause for a moment. ā€œAnd yes, im 17, ive known the owner for awhile so i learned the in-and-outs of the restaurant very early onā€. though your mouth is covered, your eyes convey a smile.
ā€œWow! Your very responsible and amicableā€ he chuckles turning to the brunnette beside him. ā€œKai, you could learn a thing or two from themā€. The brunnette looks back at you, his stare less malicious than before, but still malicious. You laugh along, ā€œthank you, is there anything else i can get for you? Or will that be all?"
ā€œThats allā€. You bow a little, before returning to your other duties, still mildly unnerved by the previous table. There was this sense of extreme seriousness and poison despite the old mans altruism. You have a feeling in your gut telling you there is something wrong with the Gold-eyed boy.
You feel the violent stare of the brunnette as you work. Its different than when he first laid eyes on you. At first he seemed to look at you like you were a bug, someone beneath him, unworthy of his presence. but now, it seems like hes looking at you as if you were a zoo animal. Both are bad, but the latter is better. you can tell heā€™s analyzing you, by the looks of it he seems anti-social. Thinking of the old mans question, he was probably also a germaphobe. Just like Hyugo.
They leave without issue, with the old man extremely pleased, biding you a nice farewell as they leave, you respond with a ā€œcome again!" before looking away. The rest of the group kind of erks you.
What an odd bunch you think. However, you don't linger on that thought for long. You run into far more intresting and dangerous people on the daily, for example- you take a second look. Holy shit- one of your co-workers is serving for Sir Nighteye. Hes in the corner out of sight from most of the guests, which makes sense considering his position. But it wows you nonetheless.
The rest of the day goes without anything of note. Youve finished your shift and are sitting at a table with your friend Chiyo, eating dinner. Shes a kind girl, shoulder length grey-red hair, and bright ruby eyes. Shes Hyugoā€™s neice and has a passion for culinary. She was there for you at your worst, even when you weren't as stable.
A few days later you wait for the same group of people, the old man flashing you a vivacious smile.
ā€œOh its you! How are you?" he asks as he sits down.
ā€œIm good!ā€ you say flashing hin a friendly smile, you scrunch your eyes as much as you can to get the message across, second nature from wearing a mask so often."im assuming you enjoy your experience last time?ā€
ā€œYes, the food was nice." he says looking to the rest of the group, silent, but they all give him a nod of agreeance. You feel awkward, you wonder why its only the old man making conversation with you. Your eyes accidentally lock with the arrow-haired boy.
ā€œWe would all like water please.ā€ he says
ā€œAlright! Ill get that started for you. Anything else?" you resoond, slightly startled, you sort of expected for knly the old man to speak.
ā€œNo, thank youā€
ā€œAlright!" you scrunch your eyes, and get their water.
Once again you feel golden eyes burning your back as you work. Seriously what was his problem? You wonder if they are going to become regulars, or maybe they're gonna get tired of this place after a few visits.
Two weeks have passed, and you see the same brunette and his white hair friend walk in, no old man or walking plushie in sight, which is new. for the past two weeks, they have come in 4 times. in that two weeks you have come to find out that kai, surname Chisaki is the elder mans successor, you cant tell if thats his son or his grandson. Irinaka has an emitter quirk, meaning he can freely change out of that plushie form when he wants. Though you don't know the full extent of his quirk. Kurono, the white arrow haired man, is Chisakis childhood friend and close confidant. from how often they have come in it seems like they like this place. You notice the host place them in a table outside of your region, meaning that you wont serve them. oh well, not your problem. Youā€™re about to go back to work before you realize you're making eye contact with chisaki as he is led to his table. Your avert your gaze, they make you kinda uneasy, especially since the old man isn't around, you canā€™t imagine how dry talking to them would be. Thank god your not serving them today.
Out of curiosity you look back at them and your co-worker who is going to server them today. What takes you by surprise is the way Chisakis face- though masked, contorts in disgust and offense when he sees your co-worker approach. His eyes immediately dart to you like a lost puppy, then back at the co-worker with disgust, then back to you. You shrug while smiling extremely awkwardly and you turn back to continue working.
You weren't expecting that.
But holy shit it was kind of cute.
ā€”ā€”ā€”
AN: Should reader be a theater kid, an artist or something else? I listened to a few hamilton songs while writing this and even though idk shit about theatre i kinda want reader to be a theater kid, then again i know the most about art because, im an artist. I ALSO DREW CHISAKI so yeah uh yeah :D, I have another fic to continue writing that i posted on ao3
