Just a Study

Content Warning: Spoilers for Lesson 40 of Nightbringer! Everything above the cut is spoiler-free!

The wise sorcerer watches his dear apprentice sleep peacefully, unaware of their close friend and mentor doing what he does best. Studying.

His eyes analyse the rise and fall of their chest, tracing his gaze over and across the parabolas that make up the shape of their sleeping form. The small chuckles that escape him when you snore and snort are sounds that you will never get to hear. The soft, unprecedented flushes of crimson across his cheeks when you nuzzle your forehead deeper into the crook of his neck is a sight you will never get to see. Yet your sounds, sights and touch… Solomon knows all of it. He knows the mean, median and mode of the number of hours you sleep at night; and he spends the midnight hours flipping through tomes dedicated to understanding love. To Solomon, this was all a study, really.

A study on how it would have been, if he had taken the time to know his fellow, human classmate from the get-go. How it would have been if he had taken you under his wing sooner - if he had won the race for your heart against the Seven Avatars of Sin. The data was there, in the form of the pact marks etched into your skin - placed there like perfect puzzle pieces. And no matter how much his brain wanted to process that data differently, the results and conclusion would remain unchanged.

To conduct a study, one must try to match the conditions of the experiment to the assumptions of the theory. Solomon knew this, and so he had strived to make Coctyus Hall your new House of Lamentation. He had lived with you - had eaten with you - had even slept beside you. He knew that you (more often that he liked) had shared a bed with each of the brothers before - so he had done that, too. He had taken your trip to the past as an opportunity to replicate the theory with ease, piecing together a domestic life with you that felt like bliss.

The perfect study.

It was meant to be the perfect study. For him and you.

So why?

Why did it hurt so bad, returning to the original timeline; and seeing how… easily, you fell back into your own life?

Why did it hurt, seeing you live, eat and sometimes even sleep alongside the brothers again?

Why did it hurt, sleeping beside you in your old room, when he had already shared a bed with you many times now? It hurt being with you, in this bed made for one, the pillows and blankets and your shifting form taking up room and pushing him out. Telling him that he didn’t belong next to you.

… The wise sorcerer watches his dear apprentice sleep; studying. He presses his lips gently to your temple and savours the familiar warmth that greets him, fondly. He selfishly, childishly, hooks an arm and a leg around you; entangling himself in you as you had done many times before with him. He easily finds your hand through touch alone under a blanket colder than the one you used to share; struggling to intertwine his fingers with yours properly. But he grips your hand like a lifeline when he manages to. He’s got the lines of your palm and the creases of the skin of your wrists memorised. With a small, shaky breath, Solomon uses his thumb to trace over them again, and again, and again. Studying.

It was just a study, right? A ‘what if’.

Just a study, with a simple title.

What if, for a while, he pretended you loved him?

A study compares the theoretical with the experimental. Compares the ideal with harsh, painful, hurtful reality.

You belonged with the brothers. They were your ideal.

… And his brief, domestic, blissful experiment with you was now over.

Thinking. About working on a smut fic for rn to get myself back in the groove of writing. And also I kinda just wanna write some bullshit. Good bullshit. Some fucking around, so to speak. Both literally and figuratively, you could say.

Anyways I wanna make a poll. For the different vashwood smut fic ideas I had. Wanna see what people are potentially interested in.

So.

Ideas explanations under the cut!

Idea #1: sequel fic to my one posted smut fic, I Know I'm Gonna Die of This. Roughly in line with trimax, but with a lil bit of plot convenient revival. Not a huge narrative deal, mostly just an excuse to make things tragic then sweet. The catharsis. The desperation. It'd be pure joy and relief and Need as Vash goes a lil kooky with how fucked up he was after all that. Gotta get his hands on wolfwood ASAP.

Idea #2: bathroom smut fic. This has been a WIP for like a year now. I started working on it then just stopped. But maybe I could pick it up again. Vash gets a lil hurt. Wolfwood gets protective angry at him. Vash needles back and Wolfwood is like "you wanna be like that? Sure, I'll bite." So, light pain play, mostly in the pressing into bruises and being kinda rough with each other. Mostly them being stupid horny for each other and fucking in a bathroom after Wolfwood patches Vash's wounds lol

Idea #3: mirror sex fic. I'd need to look back on the whole convo that prompted this to remember all the details, but it's essentially Vash guiding Wolfwood in getting himself off as they both watch in a mirror. And then Vash getting just Stupid horny for him bc of it so he fucks him raw. Ft my weird lil tendrils plant junk idea. Oh yeah I think Wolfwood was gonna suck him off too. Just a lil bit o squirmy guys. And them both being stupid horny for each other. Of course.

Idea #4: dragon vash oviposition fic. 🎶 One of these is Not like the others 🎶 anyways yeah shapeshifter dragon vash is in heat or whatever (logic doesn't need to matter for stupid horny fics) and his friend/situationship(?)/the man he's in love with (it's Wolfwood) goes to check on him. Gets a few eggs for the effort (lol). Ft Wolfwood who's got a lil bit o dragon in him too, so his body Knows What To Do. Also ft a kind of half-transformed Vash bc he can't hold his human form completely but if he went full dragon he'd probably just crush Wolfwood. & idk what else to tell u, just some good monsterfucking fun.

Ok those are the current ideas I'm raising the possibilities for. Now Vote...... pretty please 🥺

In honor of me basically having all of The Raven now memorized, apart from a bit of specific word cleanup,

[shigussy]

i keep getting tiktoks of these younger gen z kids referencing a time they did something relating to fandom in public and now they're embarrassed by it and everytime i see one i sit there thinking over all of middle and high school and having genuinely 0 moments that i feel embarrassed by, like i definitely did a lot of shit these kids would be embarrassed by but i think these are all just really fucking funny

also photographic evidence of the kinda kid i was. these are from 2014/15 when i was in 8th grade

-desolation row one shot(still on wattpad gerard way/reader smut)

-twerk it on (mcr crack fanfic no longer on wattpad but i have another fic in my library called twerking in taco bell which definitely ALSO used for my reading log)

-frank iero must die(a serial killer/assassin frerard fic, still on wattpad)

-hair (really vague maybe a phanfic? nowhere in my wattpad library rip)

my binder i used in 7th grade i had a blue one that looked pretty similar to this for 8th grade but idk where it went, also the parts i scribbled out are my full legal name i had written on it. i wrote it normally and then the big spot is where i wrote my name REALLY BIG in elysian code from the vladimir tod books. also the lines are from when i used an exacto knife to cut up some papers and forgot that my binder was underneath

in conclusion yall can now see why im so shameless about talking about shigaraki the way i do

This is personal match-up because regardless of who HoV is up against its gonna be : My most favorite battlesuit VS My least favorite garbage.

And if HoV doesn't win, I will feel personally attacked.

@/yuniyuniiyunii herrscher tournament is serious to me.

re: love story that one I can’t really make a specific lyrics based argument for, it’s more that it’s about first love and the narrator thinking of an idealized reality where that story can happen and also their parents don’t approve, Romeo and Juliet reference can speak to a class imbalance if you want it to etc. the rest I could really make a case for and defend
