Wyll's Enchanted Boots

Set somewhere in acts 1/2, once the group is more comfortable with each other. Astarion is a little sh!t prankster

"What did he do this time?"

"Enchanted Wyll's boots," Karlach snorted. "Poor guy can't get them off."

Shadowheart sneered. "He's going to give away our location if they don't keep it down."

"You want to get in the middle of their prank war, go ahead. They've been obsessed recently. But I think Gale or Tav cast something that soundproofed the camp before they left. Pretty sure we've all been making noise."

"Help! HELP! Get these things ohooooofffff! GaHA! TICKLES! IT TICKLES! Oh my GAHAHADS! HEEEEELP!" 

"No one will save you, darling fool," Astarion was watching Wyll roll on the ground struggling to remove the cursed boots. His smile was smug and satisfied - Wyll had been especially sassy and righteous during their travels that week and Astarion had had enough. He was sitting in a chair above the downed fighter swirling a wine glass with the occasional sip. "Another few minutes and that will have made up for all of those comments on my rat diet."

"Feheheathers! Th-thousands of feathers!"

"Yes dear, I'm sure it feels that way!"

Shadowheart shuddered, but she had weighed the options in her mind. "Oi! Astarion! Those were a good pair of boots. Why did you need to waste them with a curse like that?"

The vampire put a hand to his chest in false hurt. "This? A waste? I think not dear, I am more than satisfied with the results. Wyll, darling fool that he is, may have stepped into them unwillingly but now whoever wants to laugh themselves silly can do so anytime they please. It only lasts as long as you can keep them on…" He chuckled darkly.

"And will it be your turn after he manages to get them off?" She raised a brow. 

"I'd kinda like to try," Karlach shrugged. 

"Then pull them off meeeee! HaHAhahahaaa!" Wyll wailed.

"Nah, looks too intense. Or are you that sensitive?" She teased. "You walk around camp with a crop top Wyll, can't say I blame Astarion for getting ideas."

"And he has an extra pair of normal shoes lying around somewhere," Astarion waved his hand. "Unless they're enchanted too and Gale ate them...Hm. Heh. Heheh. Good luck fighting whilst laughing your arse off."

Shadowheart clicked her tongue. "It has been mere minutes, and he is crying."

"Heeeeeeelp!"

"Enough Astarion," Karlach laughed. "He's had enough."

"Alright, alright," Astarion sighed and set his glass down. "Hold still darling. Stop kicking your - hey! Stop kicking for a minute! Yes, thank you. Excellent self control. Let me pull the left off first…that's it, dear. Here you go, Karlach. You slip it on and it'll start tickling after a few moments. I'm only giving you one boot, otherwise you may get too excited and blow us up, you sweet touch-starved barbarian. Now Wyll, if you kick me again I'm leaving this one on….Alright goooood….Aaaaaand you're free!" He stood back up with a delighted smile and offered the other boot to Shadowheart. "Curious?"

"Hells no," She crossed her arms. 

"HEH! Heheheh. Haha, oh my, heheh, ohoho!" Karlach broke out into higher pitched giggles than anyone would have thought. "Hehehey! This isn't bahahad!...This is nihihice! H-how ticklish are you Wyll? Heheh!"

Wyll stayed on the ground as he watched his teammates and friends have fun. "I'm," he gasped, "I'm happy…at least one person…can enjoy that torture device…heheh…"

"Two people," Astarion reclined back on his chair like a cat. "I'll leave the pair by Halsin's tent when they come back and then we can get a proper show. You'll be thanking me."

Shadowheart looked down at the boot, up at Karlach who had taken a seat on the ground and was giggling, and sighed as she sat down beside her. "A kind gift you've given her," She said to Astarion. "But I'm curious as to why you want to see us laugh?"

"Better a smile on your face and cheer in the camp than slowly angering ourselves to murder darling, cruel pranks lead to cruel actions," Astarion set his glass down and stood. He spoke from experience with his spawn 'siblings.' "Now then. I'm going to-"

Wyll grabbed his ankle with a playful look in his eye. "Going to what?"

"Going to escape your grasp," He shook his leg, and when that didn't work he bent over to unwork Wyll's fingers around his ankle. "Going to…to just sliiiiide myself out of here while you loons have your fun…"

"Oh I think he deserves some form of payback for that," Shadowheart smirked and helped Wyll pull the vampire's legs out from under him so he landed face-first on the ground. "Us loons do want to have our fun."

Astarion yelped and tried to scramble away again, but he soon joined Karlach in a giggle fit as the pair squeezed his legs. Wyll was working on pulling off one of his shoes as Astarion did everything in his power to not actually kill the two. "H-hey now! I, heh, I thought thaHAT you'd prank me some other wahay! Gehet off yohou weirdos! AHEH! HEE! N-not the kneHEES! HEE!"

"You've been pranking us with laughter for weeks and we're the weirdos?" Shadowheart took more pleasure than she should have from making Astarion squeak. He was on the ground squeaking from their pinching and scribbling into the backs of his knees.

"It's only fair, Astarion! Stop kicking, you know you deserve to laugh just as hard as I did! C'mon Fangs," It took a few seconds, but Wyll managed to tug the enchanted boot over Astarion's one foot and sat on the pair of legs so he couldn't pull it off. "Karlach, get his other one!...Karlach?"

She appeared to be off in her own world, enjoying the teasing magic.  

Astarion's giggles became consistent and louder. Not that being pinned and forced to take their revenge helped, but he had not anticipated the boot actually tickling so much. Shadowheart was also on his waist pinching his sides from behind with her slender fingers now. Embarrassed, he hid his face in the crook of an arm and tried shooing her hand away with the other. He shot both back down when she slid them into his armpits, and they were pinned there making him cackle. He could only writhe on the ground and laugh at their mercy - yet he would take this over Cazador's punishments any day. His teammates weren't interested in hurting him when he acted out.

This was fun.

Wyll had decided to grab Astarion's free foot. Holding it by the ankle on the ground, he scratched his nails over the sole.

Not so fun. The nails were far worse than the feathers the boot tickled with.

Wyll exclaimed, "The Blade of Frontiers always finishes his fights! Give in yet, fiend?"

Astarion arched his back, raising his head high. Tears prickled the corners of his eyes and he had the largest grin only Shadowheart could see from the angle she sat at. "Yes, YEHEHES! GET OHOHAHAFF!"

And they did. 

Shadowheart patted his back when she slid off, and Wyll got off of his legs. "Need help with the boot?" 

Still giggling, the spawn pulled himself up and started to pull the enchanted item off with far more ease than Wyll had been able to. The other boot was tossed into his lap, and he saw Karlach cross-legged wiping her own eyes. 

"That was fun!" She exclaimed. "Haven't been touched like that before. Thanks, Astarion. I'll borrow those again." 

He coughed and snuck quick glances to Shadowheart, who was smirking at him on her knees, and Wyll, who was still dangerously close to his feet. When they made eye contact he wiggled his fingers in the air teasingly. "Juvenile pranks don't go unpunished, Astarion. Truce?"

They won't hurt you. They're having fun.

I'M having fun.

He pulled himself together after a second, pulling the smirk back over his face as a familiar mask. "How about well deserved pranks? You've been a brat this week Wyll, and I'm not above making you laugh as hard as you do your enemies."

"Tickling enemies is my thing!" He shot back. "You got these ideas from Gale and I!"

As they bickered, Karlach plucked the boots back from Astarion and grinned at Shadowheart. "I'll put these by Halsin's tent. It'll sure be a sight when they get back. I'm going to go sharpen my blades before these two start tickling each other again."

"I'll join you," As Shadowheart stood, Astarion indeed leaped onto Wyll and tackled him to the ground. Straddling him, he dug into the bare skin Wyll's cropped top exposed and loud laughter once again filled the camp. 

She smiled. Without realizing it, Astarion was great at team building.

Hii how are you? I saw your post about sending in requests soo here I am haha :)

Could you write smth with Marc guiu and like long distance relationship (reader is from another country, I'd love Germany cos I'm from there but any country is okay) and like her surprising him with a visit, maybe she comes to a game and like waits for him after as the 'surprise' kinda. Feel free to adjust or change things if you want :)

Thanks so much in advance and I hope you have a great day!

Being in a long distance relationship is hard especially when there was a time that you weren't long distance it becomes hard to separate yourself from the person you love but sometimes it has to be done. This is exactly how it is for me and Marc as a few years ago my family moved to Barcelona which is where we met and became friends for a few months before we started dating. For a year we were so happy together until my dad lost his job and got a new one back home in Germany so we had no choice but to be long distance which was so hard at first but we have made it work as best as possible but I still miss him a lot. 

A few weeks ago Marc got a move to Chelsea which he was really excited about and I was really happy for him. Between his move and preseason we haven't seen each other in like two months which is the longest we've gone without seeing each other. This weekend is supposed to be Marc's first game which he thinks I can't make it to but I've been lying to him so I can surprise him. It's not all a lie originally I didn't think I could go as I was supposed to be going to a family event but things got moved around and I just didn't tell him as I thought it would be fun to surprise him. 

Getting tickets to the match wasn't easy as they were all sold out and I'm not as familiar with Marc's new Chelsea teammates as I was with his Barcelona teammates. In the end I was brave and dm'ed one of his teammates to ask for help getting tickets and he was so helpful and gave me a way to get hold of tickets and offered to help me surprise Marc which I took him up on as I have no idea how to go about things. His teammate made sure that I knew how to get to the stadium and where would be the best place to stay the night before the game and he sorted things out so I'd be allowed into the back of the stadium with the rest of the players friends and families so I can actually surprise Marc after the game. 

Now things are all set in place and all I have to do is keep this hidden from Marc which won't be easy as we always FaceTime every night and I'm scared he'll notice that I'm not in my room as I'm staying in a hotel close to the stadium. Marc is quite observant he always notices when I've had my hair cut even if it's just a trim and he can always tell when I've changed my skincare or makeup routine so fooling him isn't going to be easy. I thought he'd have caught on before I even got here as we quite often text throughout the day and I had to have my phone off while I was on the plane but luckily I was able to say that I was caught up with something and didn't check my phone which he believed. 

As soon as I arrived to the hotel and dropped my suitcase off I went back out onto the streets to go the the Chelsea store which is close to the stadium to find a shirt with Marc's name and number on. He said that he would send me a shirt but he hasn't been able to yet as he hasn't got an official game day shirt that he can part with. What kind of girlfriend would I be if I didn't wear his shirt especially for his first game at a new club so I took matters into my own hand to try and find a shirt for myself. The store was much bigger than I expected it to be and it was filled with people but I managed to navigate my way around until I finally found a shirt with Marc's name on it which I bought and got out of there as quick as possible. 

Like clockwork Marc FaceTimed me at 8pm and I had to do my best to try and keep the camera on me and not show much of the room so he wouldn't get too suspicious. To start with Marc seemed confused and was looking at my surroundings but he didn't say anything so neither did I. We had a normal conversation about what we had done today and I had to completely make things up which he just believed as he trusts me enough to not question anything I say which is really sweet and helpful in this specific situation. We talked for hours until I had to pretend to need to go as I was supposed to be up early for this family event he still thinks I'm going to so we said goodnight to each other and I just hoped and prayed that Marc wasn't too suspicious about my surroundings. 

~~~~~~~~~~

I woke up to my alarm and a few texts from Marc telling me to have a good time with my family so I wished him luck at his game before getting up and getting ready. Once I was ready I still had hours until I needed to leave for the game and I had no idea what to do with myself. I was so nervous for Marc, I always get nervous before Marc plays but for some reason today I'm extra nervous for him. Playing for a new club in a different league especially such a competitive one like the premier league is nerve wracking and playing at Chelsea comes with another level of competition and pressure that I know Marc can handle but that doesn't mean I can't be nervous for him. 

Eventually the time came for me to leave so I changed into the shirt I bought yesterday and grabbed all my things before calling a taxi to get to the stadium. There was so much traffic on the road but I allowed plenty of time to get there so by the time I arrived there was still enough time for me to find my seat and take in the stadium before the match started. I have been to all sorts of stadiums to watch Marc play but most of them don't compare to Stamford bridge even though there was a lot of empty seats the atmosphere was amazing people were really in the spirit and ready for the first match of the new season. 

Soon enough the players came out to warm up and as always my eyes were drawn to Marc as he ran across the pitch and kicked a ball around to get himself ready. He wasn't in the starting line up which wasn't a huge surprise to me but I'm hoping he can play in the second half as I'd love to see him actually play. Watching him out there made me so excited to surprise him after the match I know he wished I could be here but he would never say that as he doesn't like to make me feel bad when I can't make it to big matches. In just under two hours I can finally hug and kiss him again which I've missed so much while we've been apart but for now I have to wait a bit longer. 

The match didn't get off to the best start with Chelsea conceding within the first 20 minutes then they had a few good chances which unfortunately they weren't be able to convert. Half time came around and not much changed but 66 minutes into the game Marc finally came on. He received a loud cheer from the crowd which really warmed my heart as I know he was worried about being accepted by the fans but that doesn't seem like it's going to be a problem. Marc played well trying to make runs and get close to the goal to help the team but ultimately it didn't make a difference as the match ended 2-0 after an 84th minute goal from Kovacic which wasn't well received by the home fans but in the end they didn't care so much about that and more about the loss. 

I wasn't thinking about the loss I was thinking about Marc, the players were still out on the pitch but as soon as they started making their way off I left my seat and headed towards the back parts of the stadium so I can finally see Marc. Security let me straight through and directed me to where I needed to go to find the locker rooms. Just as I made it down there the players started to head towards the locker room and I was able to spot Marc down the corridor as he was talking to Sanchez so he hadn't noticed me yet. The closer he got the more I wondered if he would even notice me as he was so in his own world but luckily Marc looked in my direction at the right time which caused him to stop in his tracks as he tried to figure out what was happening. 

It wasn't long before Marc realised I was actually stood there and he ran towards me and picked me up in his arms to hug me tightly. He was all sweaty from running around for the last 30 minutes but I couldn't care less it just felt so good to be in his arms again. When he put me down one of his arms stayed around my waist while his other hand went to my jaw to pull me in for a kiss. It didn't stop at one kiss he made sure to make up for at least half the kisses I've missed out on over the last two months by pressing kisses all over my face. 

"I'm so happy you're here I've missed you so much" Marc said 

"I've missed you too you were amazing out there by the way" I said 

"Thank you I was sad that we lost but now none of it matters as I've got you here" he said 

"Wait weren't you supposed to be at a family thing how are you here?" He asked 

"That got moved so I decided I'd come surprise you at your first match as I just couldn't miss it" I said 

"Well I'm happy you could make it and I like your shirt how did you get that?" He asked 

"I battled London after I got here yesterday and went to the club store which was packed but I managed to find this as I thought I couldn't come here to support you without wearing your shirt" I said 

"You are so cute but now you can have this shirt so you've got a fully authentic one" he said 

"I look forward to showing that off to my friends" I laughed 

We talked for a bit longer before he had to go and get changed so he left me with a few of his teammates who he introduced me to while he showered and changed in record time. All of his teammates were lovely and they made me feel welcome which is something I was worried about as I got along with all of Marc's Barcelona teammates really well so I didn't think it would be the same here but so far everyone has been really nice. Soon enough Marc came back and it was time for us to go so we headed to my hotel to grab my things so I could stay with him for the next few days as my flight back isn't until Wednesday as I thought we could spend an extra few days together. He doesn't have a proper place yet but he's staying in an actual apartment so we decided we would stay there. 

Once we made it back to Marc's place we settled in on the sofa and didn't move from there. He ordered us food for dinner and we had on our tv show that we only ever watch together as we have a lot to catch up on. All we really did was sit and cuddle but that's exactly what I've been missing while we've been apart so today has just been the perfect day.

Hi! I just read through your post defending Logan (I reblogged it with a kinda-long addition haha) and I just wanted to say thank you for putting that out there. I hadn't done all the research or known any of the specifics, I just knew about his insane ability and potential. I love that you said you'd defend him with your life, because I feel the exact same way. I feel like there's so much power in your post, if that makes sense... it's one thing to see reblogs of logan videos with captions saying "how could you hate him 😢" and stuff (which no hate to anyone who does, I'm guilty of doing this too and I don't think there's anything wrong with it!!) But I just think it's so special and so important that you actually went out of your way to do the research, learn the info, and share and demonstrate just how remarkable he really is.

I'm sorry this ended up being so long!! All this to say, truly thank you so much for defending him, and honestly I'd love to be your friend because you seem like such an amazing person and I need more LS2 defender friends 😅

I hope you have a great day 🫶🏻

hi !! thank you so much for your kind words , this was so lovely to read in response to my logan post 🥹 i genuinely did not expect it to gain as much traction as it did , i was just upset one day and decided i needed to write that post about him so that others can gain some perspective on him and his situation . and i fully agree about what you said concerning reblogs of logan videos !! yes i agree , there's nothing wrong with reblogging videos / photos of him and captioning them "how could you hate him :(" because i , too , have done the same ! but not everything knows the full scope and extent of his career and talent capabilities , hence the need for further explanation on why we could never hate him . logan haters see posts about logan with captions like "how could you hate him :(" and don't get an explanation for why he's better than everyone thinks . often times , they end up thinking we just love him because he's cute and has a good personality -- which he does , and i love that about him !! but there's more to him than just those things , and understanding WHY he's a good driver and WHY we love him outside of the surface level version of him we've seen thus far in f1 is so so so important .

and it becomes especially important when logan haters only see his career in f1 so far and don't see the little wins he's had along the way . they focus solely on his crashes , the "destructor's championship" , and how alex is doing in comparison to him . they seem to forget that alex has been in formula 1 longer than logan . they seem to forget the hardships that alex had -- must i remind us of his redbull years ?? they seem to forget that alex has had more time to develop his skill and become a better driver than logan . and it's such a frustrating thing , because logan is then immediately credited as a "bad driver" when he's nothing of the sort !! he just needs support from his team , the proper amount of experience before getting into f1 (though by now that's a little too late because of how quickly williams jumped him up to f1) , and he needs to be getting the same upgrades as his teammate ???? it's genuinely ridiculous that they're having him drive a car that's heavier and has outdated (2023 !!!) parts and expect him to do as well as his teammate who has a MUCH lighter car and new parts .

and no worries about your message being long !! i'm sorry that my response ended up being super long , too , haha -- i am just so so passionate about people knowing drivers' past before they jump to conclusions and hate on them . the drivers in f1 are there for a reason and they're the top 20 in the world . they were chosen for a reason . that means that logan sargeant was chosen for a reason , and they're treating him like crap currently . williams needs to shape up so that logan can start showing the most of his potential and show how good of a driver he is , rather than constantly being pushed out of a moving car onto the highway -- aka what they're doing to him now !!!

i would love to be your friend , too !! i love making new friends who love logan the same way i do , and who have the same interest in formula 1 as me !! just send me a dm :))

you have a wonderful day, too !! <3

Honestly the “JLU Wally is YJ Wally” HC/AU has so much wasted potential. Not only angst but also. Imagine how fucking funny the whole situation could be. Imagine

Wally, against his wishes, goes to an undercover mission with the League. When something inevitably blows up, he gets (reasonably) angry and starts muttering about how “It's a curse, I swear. I am not feeling the aster right now. So not whelmed, man”. Shayera looks at him confused, because what the fuck does aster mean?

He gets banned from going to undercover/recon/non-fighting missions

When he figures something that he feels should have been obvious up he says “Hello, Megan!” and facepalms. He does it a lot, and refuses to explain when someone asks him why or what it means

He's the youngest in the team but he's also one of the most experienced

People usually think that the reason why he tends to not tell the league about what his next move is going to be in battle or why he's so uncoordinated when working in a team is because he's arrogant and refuses to listen. It's actually because he's so used to having the mind link to communicate that now he finds it hard to talk out loud with his teammates sometimes. He's working on it

He'll ask someone something and then get frustrated when they don't answer him, only to remember that he never actually said anything out loud

Not having people in his mind all the time feels kind of lonely. Maybe that's why he was so much happier than usual when J'onn was forced to make a temporary mind link for a mission

He gets frustrated because he wants to watch a show he likes but then remembers that the show doesn't exist because it was created in like 2008. It's a pain

He talks to Shayera about his other red-headed sister, ‘Megan’, and gets uncharacteristically sad and quiet when she asks if she could meet her someday

The original JL members started to pick up on some of the stuff he says, so the phrases “Hello, Megan!”, “Get whelmed” or even the word ‘crash’ are commonly heard in the Watchtower

His relationship with Superman is complicated because he's used to holding some resentment for not being patient with Conner when he first met him so sometimes he's too salty with him, but then he remembers that that was another Superman and it gets awkward pretty quickly

If his relationship with Superman is complicated, then imagine how it is with Batman and Zatanna. One is his best friend's dad from another universe and the other is his friend he's known since he was 14 from another universe who is now older than him

And imagine how it'd be with Red Tornado. He's so used to having the guy as some kind of mentor that being his superior feels off. He tried to connect with him but it was just too awkward for him to handle

He. Misses. Barry. And. Iris.

He finds out that the Jason of this universe came back to life and wonders if his Jason came back too. Too bad he's never going to find out

Let him break down a little. Let him live with the knowledge that he's all alone now (pre-JL). Let him be depressed over the fact that his aunt doesn't even know him because both him and Barry are dead in this universe

He thinks about how he was going to propose to Artemis and doesn't show up to league meetings and missions for three weeks

“Why weren't you here?” “I had some stuff to do haha sorry” (he was laying in bed crying)

Certain things, like eating ice cream or going out to see movies, just aren't as appealing as they used to be. Everytime he sees teenagers hanging out, laughing with each other, he can't help but think about how that could (should) be him

He had to quit the team (more like was forced to quit) because his powers were killing him. Now he's back on the field and isn't dying anymore, but he can't help but think that maybe if he was then he wouldn't have cared much

Wally meets the Nightwing of this universe and immediately starts crying

Think about this: Dick doesn't know him, who know what's up with Roy, Artemis is a criminal, Kaldur probably doesn't even exist, Conner also doesn't exist (yet), Zatanna's way older than him and M'gann is dead. Just. Take a moment to think about it

He has to live with the knowledge that he's probably never going to see his friends, his family again. He has to live with the knowledge that he has no one to go to when he has speedster problems. He has to live with the knowledge that he'll never go home

Clark brings his Ma's pie to the Watchtower once and Wally gets so emotional because it smells sm like the pies he used to (try to) make with Iris and Barry (it was apple pie. They always failed so they bought one from a bakery, and Ma's smells sm like those he can't help but remember the good old days lmao. He cries)

I said this once and I'll say it again: he was going to propose to Artemis

He died knowing that he would never be able to make amends with his soulmate best friend

He has to go on a mission where he sees this universe's Artemis (a criminal) and no matter how much he tries to help her and turn her into at least a civilian, he still wasn't able to make her be even close to his Artemis

He has one of those scenes where the hero (Wally ofc) says “You could come with me. I'd help you. You could get away from the people that hurt you and, if you want to, I'd live you alone once you're safe. I can promise that”, and the villain (Arty) is like “Omg really...??” and acts all hopeful and shit but ends up being “Sike no, I'm never going with u wtf”

He finds out Hal exists in this universe too but is in another planet and looses his shit lmaoo

But like srs. The potential this shit has is amazing and ppl should acknowledge it more

The jealous j*v*a gag was never funny but girl really got jealous over a CAT and Gray dancing for fun with his child teammate. Do people really find this endearing? funny? She makes every interaction Gray has into something gross. Don't get me wrong it isn't funny when she does it with Lucy either (this is an extremely toxic relationship and I don't like to see it portrayed as cute or funny), but her acting like he's into Frosch or Wendy disgusts me (idk if it makes sense haha)

juvia Believes in the Worst of Gray, and she Couldn't Care Less

Oh, you make perfect sense to me, Anon, and you make such a good, damning point against juvia.

I love how you phrase it because it's just so accurate:

"she makes every interaction Gray has into something gross".

The fact that in juvia's mind, Gray could be a p*dophile or someone who practices b*stiality, is just beyond disturbing, for multiple reasons.

A, if she really thinks Gray is capable of those things, and still "loves" him, then what does that make her? Someone who supports those things too. Jail. Jail right now.

B, despite thinking those things about Gray, there's no acknowledgement from juvia that that's so very wrong, there's just, as you say, jealousy. Instead of putrid disgust, juvia feels jealous over a child and a cat. That's revolting, immoral, and just downright pathetic.

C, it just shows how juvia does not know Gray at all, what his values are, whom he loves, what kind of a person he is. And nor does she care. And yet this is the woman we're supposed to want to be with him. Right. That checks out.

D, what's more, Gray can do no wrong in her eyes (clearly), so if Gray likes Wendy or Frosch, guess what, it's not Gray who's the problem here- it's the child and the animal. They're her love rivals, they're whom she must conquer in a battle of love. The two who would be victims to Gray if this deluded insanity juvia believed about him was true are the very ones juvia points her gnarled finger at and declares war on. (Hypothetical) Victim-blaming/abuse at its finest.

You're right, Anon, that this jealous gag isn't funny even when inflicted on women of Gray's age and species. It's just uncomfortable, cringe, toxic, malicious, and sad. But it's infinitely more despicable when juvia's delusions and fantasies paint such a horrid picture of Gray and those around him, where his morals are misrepresented, his reputation tarnished, where such evil, perverse things are presented as if we're supposed to laugh at it.

This point doesn't get talked about enough (by myself included), but it truly is one of the most damning pieces of evidence of why juvia is a loathsome, detestable human being, and why she should never be with Gray.

Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts with me, Anon! This is truly a very important point to be made, and I am very grateful to you that this could be addressed very carefully on my blog.

She specializes in prosthetics and battlefield medicine. Her name is Natalia and her segment designation is Xi. 

Im still working out her goals. My current ideas are that she wants to study teyvat through the lense of the limits of humanity. I need to fully figure out what exactly Natalia is studying in teyvat that involves basically turning people into cyborgs. Sure, being influenced by dottore would have her want to make people as strong as gods, but does she want to twist people like balloon animals into all sorts of horrifying shapes using prosthetics and cybernetic technology to see what can be unlocked? Is that the limits of humanity she’s after? Would there be something in irminsul her prosthetics technology could affect? Are cyborgs unable to reenter the leylines if they’ve forsaken their humanity? What constitutes as humanity? Is she shoving souls into prosthetics to use to improve Fatui soldiers? I have so many questions and ideas ha ha h e l p  

She also wants to leave the laboratory to be able to do this but as she makes prosthetic organs for dottore, she has to be on standby. She also wants to be seen as a good scientist by dottore, she def has those gifted kid vibes, so that she’ll be granted more privileges like being able to leave the lab. But she gets the authority to conduct her experiments by being in dottore’s back pocket. She also worries about not making progress to her goals of studying teyvat fast enough, and worries that if she falls behind on scientific progress dottore will get rid of her for being useless. Anyway yeah she has a lot of internal conflict. Potential for a character arc of her regaining everything she needs for her experiments but without the help of the Fatui if she decides to run away, bur who’d want to run away from the Fatui am I right?  

She’s 30 years old and 6’ tall but wears 3” heels. I post a lot of pics of her lmao. I’m slowly filling out a large questionnaire of character creation questions haha help me. 

she thinks discussing emotions is showing weakness and thinks therapy is a scam. She prioritizes her work in gathering knowledge through science as more important than anything else in her life. She also tries to make logical decisions about 95% of the time but there are moments when she’ll act impulsively in terms of personality she is rather obsessed with her work, but she’s also quite petty and a little haughty about being a “true scholar”. She has reverence for science, and scoffs at others who don’t. She also has a mental hierarchy, and that determines if she’ll accept or reject criticism from someone. 

Her voice sounds like a mix between cold and calculating and a little, I don’t know how to describe this, sultry? Something like Kafka from HSR. She is a certified yapper, she may be quiet and focused on her work but get her talking about her studies and she will not shut up. 

If she was playable she’d be an aggressive claymore dendro healer that heals based on edmg. The amount of healing done would equal 110% of the edmg. I’m still figuring out what her skills would do, obviously she’d need an infusion thing to make the healing work. And she’d heal when dendro edmg is done even by other teammates who are infused by her dendro.

Oh and she obviously needs a boss fight because ofc so I’m not sure about the monologue or phase one but phase two would have her in a crow themed battle suit where her extra arms would be strapped into crow themed wings. And how she’d get into this mech suit would be that she would stumble backwards into it and have it activate on impact, or something else I haven’t decided. Her boss theme would have kind of a mechanical vibe like uh coordinate shift by ferry, but obviously would have the Latin chanting and fatui letimotif.

I Lowkey forget I have this app 💀💀💀💀

But!! She sounds really cool !

I think Theta and Natalia wouldn’t get along, it’s sort of the thing where siblings compete for their parents attention. Theta is the age range of a sometime when Dottore was in the Akademyia, so they’re kinda desperate to be seen lol. Although Theta does well in hiding that desperation for approval and appears arrogant to others.

Since Theta is more biological than the other segments they are also an “experiment” as well. I would like to think that the segments all have their own type of jobs, and Theta is based in spying/information collecting. Theta mainly does exploring around Teyvat to find some sort of anything that interests them.

If Theta was playable they would be a very selfish DPS, most likely a cryo claymore. Their signature weapon would look like a giant pair of scissor s !

I plan to draw them out some more!!! AUUUSGHSHSHSH I LOVE THETA SM :33

[oleksiak-pettersson]

I love ur fics! Gonna need some more PETEY ones please!

Okay, I thought of this one recently and it’s inspired by my baby’s inability to wear a toque (beanie if you’re nasty) properly!

P.S. - Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, and Happy Holidays to all my lovely babes 😘🧡

"You can't leave like that," you announce from your spot on the couch as Elias moves to grab his keys. He pauses, confusion covering his entire face like a mask. There's such certainty in your voice that he quickly spins to check himself in the body-length mirror you have hung up by the front door.

His eyes narrow on your form, cozy under a blanket or two with your his favourite Canucks sweater covering your frame. He wishes he didn't have to leave for the rink so early. There's evidence of the pregame nap you shared still present on your features.

"You said last week this is my sexiest suit," His eyebrows furrow as he tries to make sense of your logic in his mind. He's got you there, that is in fact what you said a week ago upon picking him up from the airport after the Canucks' East Coast road trip. It may have also led to some of the hottest car sex of your life, but that's a story for another time.

"It is and if it weren't for the fact that you have to head to the game right now," You smile sultrily as you unwrap the blanket from your body. Elias groans quietly at the sight of your bare legs, only tiny athletic shorts covering your lower half. "I'd drag you to the bedroom and show you just how sexy."

Elias' blue eyes flutter shut as he uses all his willpower to not let his blood rush south.

"However, I'm actually talking about this," You reach up to adjust his toque. You pull it down over his ears and press a kiss to the tip of his nose.

Any sexual thoughts Elias had immediately vanished as he playfully rolled his eyes. His hands automatically find their place on your hips, they fit perfectly because you were made for him and he for you.

"It's almost Christmas, which means you're supposed to be nice to the ones you love," Elias teases, his eyes scrunching up as he smiles looking down on you.

"I am being nice," You say matter-of-factly, wrapping your arms around him. You squeeze his butt in your hands, causing him to lean further into you. "I'm saving you from being roasted on Twitter, Instagram, Tumblr, and Reddit. If anything, I'm the nicest girlfriend in the world."

Elias just pulls you closer and he chuckles softly. You lean your head against his chest and listen to his heartbeat. "I love you," He whispers, before pulling you away from his chest slightly and pressing kisses all over your face.

"Kick some ass out there, babe," You smirk as he pulls away to head to the door. With his back facing you, you have ample access to his perky ass. You quickly give it a playful smack. "Love you, golden boy."

Elias is thankful he was handed a towel before being pulled into the hallway for postgame interviews. He quickly wipes some sweat from his face, focusing on the swarm of interviewers in front of him.

"Big game tonight Elias, how does it feel to be the leader of your team in points? You've been making plays and setting up your teammates for success?"

The question kind of irks him, it's praise with a backhanded slap towards his teammates disguised in there. Elias resists the urge to roll his eyes.

"Bruce has given me great linemates, that definitely helps. Demmer and Marty have been great in net, and when you have such great goaltending, you want to produce the results we're getting." Elias thinks he'd be a great actor, he can pull some bullshit, stereotypical answer out of his ass on a second's notice.

"Petey, the Twitter-verse has been losing it over the pictures of you walking into the rink tonight," a second interviewer starts, "It appears you've changed the way you wear your toques?"

Elias laughs, "Haha yeah, my girlfriend refused to let me leave our house tonight without fixing my toque."

The reporter smiles. "Might have to be your new pre-game ritual, especially after a game like that!"

nuxfan23: Y/N is one of us, thanks for teaching petey to wear a toque properly!

thecanucksbiggestfan: petey needs to always wear his hat like that if he's going to come out and have an 8 point night

itsy/n: shootout to canucks twitter for appointing me queen simply for fixing elias' hat lmao 😂 🤣

🥛 when you first think of kind characters in hq you might not think of tanaka because he's more known for . . . other things

🥛 but if you look into his character you can see that he's actually really nice

🥛 let's not forget that tanaka was the one to sneak kageyama and hinata into the gym for early practice at the beginning

🥛 he's also really supportive and protective of his teammates and isn't afraid to stand up to others who are mean

🥛 and he's super protective of those he like likes, like kiyoko in the series

🥛 (we're pretending like they don't get married here)

🥛 and tanaka's also not ashamed or insecure about himself

🥛 he actually doesn't strike me as a yapper even though he gets excited and fired up really easily

🥛 but once he's excited he's really energized and loud (even if it's in public, man really has no filter)

🥛 he'd love doing a bunch of stuff with you and trying a lot of things; anything you like to do, he'd gladly follow you while you do it

🥛 while tanaka may fawn over kiyoko because she's pretty, his giving love language actually doesn't strike me as physical touch

🥛 (nishinoya would be more physical touch in my opinion)

🥛 tanaka's giving love language probably something more like words of affirmation

🥛 he'd be the first one to praise you and call you hot lol

🥛 although he'd also be obsessed with giving acts of service

🥛 you could ask him to get you an ice cream and within seconds he'd be kneeling at your feet with ten different types of ice cream bars in his hands

🥛 he just wants to take care of you and do everything for you

🥛 would probably unironically call himself your "servant"

🥛 although tanaka's receiving love language is definitely physical touch

🥛 every time you touch him he probably starts screaming about how hot you are

🥛 since you're not as big on physical affection, he'd actually treat it as a sort of challenge

🥛 he thinks of it as a win or a reward when you hug him

🥛 but it's okay if you don't give him hugs because it "turns him on" anyway. . . (ew, i cringed so hard when he said this in the show)

🥛 tanaka suits high energy dates more, so think amusement parks (more specifically the bumper cars) or sports matches

🥛 but just like you said, he's happy anywhere he can be around you!

runner up for you was akaashi keiji! (two very different options i know haha)

A/N: there you go 🧺anon, i hope you liked it!

[uenodivision]

As the sun was still shining brightly in the first day of November, there was yet another visitor stopping by at one flower shop in Ueno.

This time the visitor was a young man with pink fluffy hair and a tatsumaki headband.

“Pardon my intrusion~ Oh, ohayo☆ Happy birthday and glad to see you today, Heisha-san.”

Greeting the nun with a big hearty smile on his face, the boy walked up closer to the flower shelf where Shisuta was standing

“My name is Asahi from the Harumatsuya shop in Nara!  And I’ve come here today as the representative of my team! YuuYu was going to relay presents at other division so he sadly can't come today. Most importantly… We’ve got some presents for you as well!”

With such a jovial voice, he handed something over to the birthday lady.

“This one was a handmade bookmark from him. He told me he had found this four-leaf clover once during one of his time doing the club activity with his friends in the park, and that time he was kinda into the resin art too. So, he decided to make one himself.”

“Four-leaf clover doesn’t only mean someone a good luck. I heard that each of their leaves are said to stand for four things. The first leaf is for hope, the second is for faith, the next is for love, and therefore the last one is for luck. In my opinion, I really think that it would suit your liking! And here, let’s move to the next gift~”

Asahi opened his bag and picked one paper box out of it carefully. He looked so proud when he opened its lid to showed what’s inside to her.

“Proudly presented from my family store! This is the nerikiri set I made myself! After all, flower designs and such are my specialty! I bet it would go even better if eaten together with some hot green tea.”

“Lastly, these are from Saigo-san. Speaking about tea and he actually gives Heisha-san the teacups haha. They’re the product from his cousin who loves ceramics though. Pouring some tea in these and they will look like there is literally a fish swimming inside. Kinda having the wabi-sabi feelings to me, I think?”

As the nun looked at all of the items presented by the wagashi maker, a smile appeared on her face as she bowed respectfully to him.

"Thank you very much, Tomoharu-san," Shisuta said, still smiling. "I am truly grateful for these."

Feeling she needed to reciprocate the young man for his kindness, Shisuta turned around for a brief second and began pulling out an assortment of flowers before gently placing them in a vase full of water.

"Please, take these." Shisuta said, handing him a bouquet of Dahlias. "Dahlias are a very beautiful flower. Not only because of their appearance, but because they symbolize compassion and kindness, which is what you and your companions have shown today." Bowing once more, Shisuta bid the young pink-haired man a farewell before looking at the treasures he had left behind. Smiling at the bookmark, she tucked it away, making sure to use it later.

She was truly in awe of the teacups that Asahi's teammate had given her. As she bit into one of the wagashi left for her, she was a bit upset that she didn't have any tea to good with them. It would have been a good time to utilize Saigo-san's gift. But she promised herself she would definitely use them at her earliest connivence.

Just saying: it brings soo much joy seeing someone get excited by Wanda after the whole cinematic experience.

That was my first encounter with the character and it really did not give a good first impression. And it only got worse with how they treated her and her own actor's obliviousness on the character's background (I will never say 'her character', she simply does not deserve that kind of recognition from me - yes, I am spiteful).

I do not know much about her 616 storyline, nor midnight for that matter, but despite that complete lack of knowledge I enjoy seeing you post about her. I may have originally come here for the Venom stuff but really anything you decide to share is what I stay here for.

Anyways, hiding behind the anon mask, I wish you a good day!

Hi anon! Thank you for your kind words; Wanda really was one of the first characters I got into with Marvel, long long before I cared about anything arachnid-themed (unless it was Julia Carpenter, since she was one of Wanda's teammates, haha). I'm fortunate that I met her character via comics (thanks to my friend who dragged me to the LCS) so that got to be my first impression.

Wanda's an interesting character to try to get into, since she's so strongly tied to the Avengers. She didn't get a solo of any decent length until 2015... but I highly recommend checking out Scarlet Witch by James Robinson if you can. It's not perfect, but it's very good and it has a lot of nice art by different artists. It's a fun series!

A lot of people who like That™ version of the character seen in certain films and a mediocre television show will talk about "feats" and "power" and all that even in terms of the comics, but honestly I think all of that is a load of bull. Wanda's greatest moments have always been where she follows her heart, but also her head. She's a veteran Avenger, she's one of the most compassionate characters ever, she has had epic highs and some very low lows... but she always pulls through.

And when you get a good writer that really does her justice? Oh, that's just peak. That's the best.

(I also like when she just straight-up punches people - Avengers #186; Plot: Gruenwald, S. Grant, W: Michelinie, A: Byrne)

On the note of Midnight Suns, they kind of... tried? Like, it's hard to explain. It's not great, and I would prefer her hair to be several shades darker, but it could be worse, as far as adaptations go?

EDIT 8/4/2023: I previously criticized the game here for using Romanian for Wanda - this was a mistake on my part as it's been pointed out that she has spoken Romanian in the comics but it does not mean she is intended to be Romanian. I've also learned it's commonly spoken in the region Wanda is from. To my friend who pointed out my mistake, you have my thanks!

Anyways, I'm glad you've continued to stick around even as I've expanded beyond just Venom-posting. I confess, though, I've often thought about what it would be like to smash my two little interests here together... I think particularly in Midnight Suns-verse (mixed with a little 616, of course) Venom and Scarlet Witch could have an interesting conversation. (Let's be real, I'll probably write it.)

I also think about Poisoned!Scarlet Witch a lot. I think about the universe where she was Venom... what that must have been like... what their symbiosis was... many thoughts. I bet their joined form was awesome. Wanda has great style.

(Venomverse #3, #4, #5; Bunn, Coello - that last one is fine; the host and symbiote are both dead the second they get Poisoned 😔 Mania did them a favor.)

Anyways, thanks for stopping by! If you get a chance, check out @brw's Comic Scarlet Witch Week 2023! Life circumstances have kept me from participating thus far but every week is a great week to appreciate Wanda Maximoff as she was meant to be. 🥰

[ferperss]

Loved reading your lore so thank you for the tag!! @sportsthoughts

I spent waaaay too much time writing this but once I started I felt like I couldn’t stop lmao, so I’m applauding anyone that gets through it!

The story of how I ended up where I am today is a long and winding road lmao. But I think I should start by prefacing with the fact that hockey has been a part of my life since I was born essentially. There are pictures of me on a pair of skates at around age 2 when my dad first tried to teach me! Then I played consistently from age 6 to 14 but quit when they wanted me to leave the “girls” team and play with the women because I was intimidated haha. Besides playing myself I’ve also spent many hours with my dad on the couch watching Sweden play in any and all kinds of tournaments, worlds, Olympics you name it, and since he never really rooted for any other team in Sweden or outside of it I just kind of slowly fell into that same thing. I knew there was a hockey league overseas that a lot of our own players were shipped off to but I never really had any interest in rooting for a team that wasn’t team Sweden at the time.

In the winter of 2014, I was at the ripe age of 15 and I did not play hockey anymore nor did I care about any teams really, but two of my best friends at the time became OBSESSED with this one junior player and kept talking about him. This man was none other than Thee Mr Willy Nylander himself. This led to the three of us obsessing over him and we watched him play in the world juniors over our winter break. It got to the point of us picking fights with people on twitter that said he was a bad player and really anyone that said anything negative about our Swedish players hahaha. We had a group chat named after him and everything. We eventually lost interest and forgot about him but this story is important because it comes back later.

Flash forward to May 2023! Before I entered my hockey era again I had an eight month long absolutely crushing obsession with the TV show 9-1-1 that was airing on Fox at the time (ABC now thank god, I still keep track) that came to a screeching halt when the season 6 finale aired and I hated it. I swore up and down that I was never ever going to watch that show again and now that the one thing I had been so fixated on for so long was gone I did not know what to do with myself. Which sounds so dramatic but honestly sometimes I don’t know who I am if I have nothing to obsess over. So naturally I needed entertainment and as I looked up through the haze of firefighters and network drama I found that the 2023 IIHF World Championship in Tampere and Riga was on! And I had no choice! There was hockey to be watched and I sure did watch it. Now, it did not go too well for the Swedish team last year, which is okay. But one thing that happened was the constant debate on wether Willy Nylander was going to join in. His brother was there and his teammate Timothy Liljegren also joined in. But there was no word on Willy himself. And it was all they talked about. He obviously did not end up joining but all the talk had made me nostalgic. And naturally I had to revisit the old object of obsession and see how he was doing over the Atlantic and turns out he was doing quite well indeed. And because I am a sucker for team dynamics and narratives (who could ever believe I studied film for five years) I desperately clung onto the Toronto Maple Leafs like my life depended on it. What I didn’t know was that these were also transformative times, and once I’d gotten into the team and the organization, I was bewildered when Kyle Dubas all of a sudden was going to another team??? How could that be?? The Penguins?? And that’s when I found my way to the Pittsburgh Penguins, the power of Dubas’ cardigans and Sidney Crosby’s fat ass gripped me and now I split my time between my equally cursed teams like they’re my divorced parents. And here we are.

Naturally there are a lot of nuances left out of here, I’ve covered the key points but I think that there are probably so many reasons that it was the perfect time for me to get into hockey again and here we are almost a year later and there’s no going back now!! I’m stuck here forever. And I would not have it any other way <3

This is the end of ramblings and I’ll say if there’s anything I love more than hockey, it’s being dramatic, and also I didn’t spell check this at all so if it’s not perfect I’m sorry (I’d love to blame it on English not being my first language but it’s the only subject I’ve always had straight A’s in so it’s not really applicable it’s just me being lazy)

[leonawriter]

Low hanging fruit, but Akira and Akechi?

First impression

Akira: I did my best to go into the game with an open mind (though I'd already read a fic, and been aware of some art and stuff) so I guess my first impression was "quiet with hidden depths." Before I went through the game, I was one of those people who sometimes mistook shuake/akeshu art as soukoku.

Akechi: I already knew about him before going in, so I guess my first impression was "huh, interesting" and then at some point "I will literally fight for him, he's my kind of character" and then "[points at screen] it's HIM" and then "oooh, look at him go!" haha. I did have a (very short) period of being uncertain about him around the interrogation room, but. It was short.

Impression now

Akira: I can honestly say I never expected to like a protagonist as much as I do Akira. I love how I can enjoy most fandom takes on him (even if not all). Gay disaster. Thrillseeker and probably has some kind of Thing For Danger in general. Absolute sweetheart and best big brother figure. Has a Lot of Gender.

Akechi: omg he's just like me for real- no seriously. I see a lot of my own issues in him, just dialled up to eleven. I relate so hard. I love his tenacity and the way he goes "I'm done with letting myself be controlled." Also, he's Gay Disaster #1.

Favorite moment

Akira: It's hard to say? Off the top of my head, probably just "any moment where his actions are independent of the player." Stuff you can't control, because it shows he has a personality all of his own. More specifically... ok yeah I gotta go with "the world is going crazy, his cat is human, and Akira just keeps going "?" "!" "?!" at everything.

Akechi: Part of me wants to say "friends? teammates? to hell with that!" but it's not that. It's gotta actually be his speech/dialogue on 2/2. because the entire thing is saying "I will not allow myself to live a lie, I've done that, I've had it with it, I'm sick of it" and by god he's setting his boundaries. He's got this line in the sand and he's saying he needs his free will more than anything, and it's worth dying for. It just hit hard and is one of the things that's stuck so hard about him.

Idea for a story

HAHAHA. I have written SO MANY for these dumb kids, but I still have more.

Akira: Post-11/20 where he he accidentally keeps admitting he misses Akechi for whatever reasons come up. Which is more about Akira bonding and sharing stuff with his friends and teammates than it is Akechi, who'd mostly not be appearing in the fic.

Akechi: I have written two "Vampire Akechi" fics. I now have vague ideas for Werewolf Akechi. Every so often I also want to write something where he finds Mona when he ran away from home.

Unpopular opinion

Akira: Uh... probably that he'd actually go along with an accomplice route or willingly kill anyone, and that the Yaldy choice bad end isn't something I can easily see him doing. I see a lot of people liking these edgier ideas about him and I'm just... he's one angery boi, sure, and he might have thoughts and wonder about how things could go if he just went with his crush, or continued changing hearts like that, but. I don't think he'd do it.

Akechi: Where do I begin. I don't think either of his Personas are fake or manufactured, whether he got lab tested by Wakaba or not. I also don't think that he's trigger-happy about killing people, either; he sees it as a means to an end, but I don't think he ever wanted to be in this position, and he wound up just... getting used to it. On the flip side I also don't see him going "woe is me for I am a murderer and therefore monster" like... he knew what he was doing and if he was going to be like that in third sem or later then he likely wouldn't have got that far.

Favorite relationship

Akira: Not counting Akechi, I think I like seeing him hang out with Futaba the most? But also Ryuji and Sumire.

Akechi: Not counting Akira, it has to be a tie of Sumire and Futaba. Although I love watching him and Haru in the same room. The sparks flying (and him being intimidated by her) is fun both to read and to write. (I'd like to see more of him and the rest of the PT and also Sae in more than just roleswap/etc AUs too, though.)

Favorite headcanon

Akira: He arrives in Tokyo having internalised the idea from his home town and parents that he's supposed to grow up to get a good job, get married to a girl, have kids. He leaves Tokyo realising "oops I'm gay." (read: my playthrough has me see him as completely unhappy with the girls, only realising too late if he's committed himself. because of the sprites.)

Akechi: In any 'verse other than one that explicitly states he survived through other means (brought back via cognitive reasons like Morgana, or like in one of my recent fics) I like to believe that he survived the engine room through sheer persistence and a Goho-m, but stress and trauma and Call of Chaos (and maybe Maruki) made him forget those details.

Maybe it was low-hanging fruit but I take it anyway, so thanks for the ask~!

[lucielxbe]

NGS2P5. ⋆ interview; reflecting.

once more, and no more boring interviews. but luciel supposes he’ll give a bit more this time, it’s his last nextgen interview after all.

we’ve reached the end of the show, any words?

“at some point, i thought i couldn’t make it this far but i did. joining this show was… more than i could ever expect. i learnt a lot; both the good and the bad. now, i carry impactful experiences i don’t think i can ever forget. it’s amazing. i used to do singing as a hobby, but pursuing it professionally… these days, i really have thoughts about them. dancing isn’t bad either, it’s actually fun to give your all.”

what about rapping?

luciel gives an awkward laugh at that. he knows that he hasn’t shown much of his rapping ever since the first performance for do better. “you’ll probably see it after the show ends,” he makes a lighthearted joke.

you seemed to be getting closer with siwoo.

of course. this again. “we went for the movies, and even though we were silent for a good two hours, it felt more comfortable being in each other’s presence, enough for us to hangout longer after. it took up some practice time, but it was worth it. our synergy was greater than i thought. we exchanged contacts too, so that’s a huge bonus? haha~ i do find siwoo quite adorable actually, enough for me to pull his cheeks…” luciel makes a squishing movement with his hand at that. “despite what people say about him, he’s actually really nice. he’s just awkward with expressing it, but he also expresses his kindness in a different way. you just have to get closer to him, talk to him a couple of times; then you’ll know. he’s sincerely trying his best.”

was luciel covering for siwoo? admittedly, a little. he thought about the conflict that happened during the team building exercise, and even though he would have liked to see siwoo fall, he didn’t particularly enjoyed seeing siwoo getting unfairly treated that way. so he threw in a nice word for him.

now, about your performance… yes, you know how it goes.

“i do, and i’ll compare to it to my earlier performances. especially do better. during the practice of bang, i watched my older performances. i cringed a lot. who was this odd fellow? i felt shameful watching it, and i had to watch it until the end. there were so many things i didn’t liked about it — but here’s where i can say that because i didn’t liked it, i know that i improved. watching puzzle was more bearable. for this, i’m grateful to everyone i worked with. my teammates and the coaches, and of course the judges. everyone’s words, advices and criticism shaped me into who i am today as a performer. even reading my fans comments online gives a boost to my confidence. i’ll also take this time to talk about my team individually. inho and jay helped me out with the vocals a lot. jay has a creative eye for things, working him with him seemed to open my mind somehow, he views things in a different perspective. inho has a nice voice, he helped me refined my singing. seira is the kind of person that makes you want to keep going, she works very hard and i think she did great too. siwoo’s trying, and he really tried. his dark circles are horrendous without makeup on. once he’s decided on something, he never stops.”

wow, he talked a lot huh? even the interviewer is making hand signals for him to stop at this time. he throws in a sad look, acting as if he was about to cry and made some sniffing sounds.

“to everyone, thank you for supporting ryeo jihyun on nextgen,” he says as he bows, ending the interview.

Genshin Volleyball Team manager

It’s just fuckin’ chaos

On your first day you’re already bombarded with questions by Tartaglia and Kaeya

“So which class are you?” “What’s your height?” “Are you single?”

Captain Zhongli just cannot be bothered to reign them in anymore.

So Vice Captain Diluc does it and grabs their collars. “You idiots, you’re scaring her off!”

Possibly Kazuha and Tohma are the ones you really try to rely on, on your first few weeks.

So how do you gain the trust of your team? Let’s start with each player shall we?

#1 Zhongli (Captain/Wing Spiker/Ace)

Zhongli is just handsome and mature. He’s strict and needs to be the pillar of the team. 

You’re intimidated by him the first few weeks and he just seems...a little far. He’s always so focused that you can’t seem to catch a moment to just chat with him.

There’s a day where you notice that his form is a little off, you suspect that he hurt his wrist a little. 

You fidget uncomfortably in the gym as they practice, but finally turn to the coach “U-Umm... The captain is... I mean! I’m not sure, but... I think he needs to take a rest,”

The coach calls for someone to substitute Zhongli and suddenly asks you to check on him.

“Huh?! Me?!” the coach pushes you towards him, and Zhongli is just looking at you quizzically, you can practically see the question mark on his face.

“C-Captain, d-do you need some bandages on your wrist?”

Zhongli is taken aback, but silently puts his right wrist out for you to wrap.

Only when you’re done tending to it does he look you in the eye and ask.

“How did you know?”

“...Because I always watch, and all I can do is watch. If I can’t even spot that out then I’m not a very good manager am I?”

Zhongli has a newfound respect for you. He thought you were just a meek and shy thing sitting around and passing them balls but he feels his heart swell that someone like you is seriously watching over them.

#2 Diluc (Vice Captain/Wing Spiker/Defense Specialist)

Diluc is probably the second hardest to get along with or break the ice with.

But he gradually warms up to you when he notices that he’s always the first one you pass a towel and water bottle to.

You’re not doing that on purpose, it’s just him who always comes up first.

After a few days he deliberately goes to you faster cause he always wants to be the one to receive a water bottle and towel from you first. Secretly a puppy.

The moment he realized that you were reliable was when you stayed behind to help him practice when everyone else went home already. 

You didn’t let up in your constant praise of “nice receive”, “great spike!” and “that’s so cool!” 

He thinks he saw stars in your eyes at some point.

“Hey, Diluc, it’s getting late, let’s leave some energy for tomorrow, yeah?” he could tell from your mannerisms that you were tired too, but you tried not to let it show on your face and still cleaned up with him.

“I’ll see you tomorrow then!” you wave but you’re stopped by a quick. “No,” from him. You tilt your head in wonder and he just looks at you as if it’s the most normal thing in the world.

“It’s late, I’ll walk you home,”

#3 Kaeya (Middle Blocker)

You don’t have to impress this guy, anyone of the female gender impresses him.

lol jk

safe to say it’s not difficult to befriend Kaeya, just bring him a cheering squad and some food.

all jokes aside the way to this guy’s heart is through his stomach.

He’s not a particularly hungry person but there’s this one time he forgot to bring lunch. He was running late, or something of that sort, honestly not something new for him.

He ALSO didn’t bring money so he couldn’t eat food from the cafeteria.

Ask his friends for money you say? Tartaglia would go, “Haha no way!” Albedo would go, “Let this be a lesson for you,” his brother would go “Serves you right,”

By club time he’s famished and dramatic. “Guys, go on without me, this is as far as I go,” as he sprawls on the gym floor.

You ask if he’s okay and he doesn’t answer so Diluc is the one that answers for him. “He forgot his lunch, as always,”

You make a sound of understanding and the next thing you know you’re taking out a lunch box and Kaeya has lifted his head up, sensing food.

“I packed onigiri for everyone today, actually... In case someone was hungry. It’s not much but--”

Kaeya comes alive from the dead and clutches your hands to his chest. “Manager you really are an angel,”

Diluc jump kicks him away from you.

#4 Albedo (Setter)

You also don’t know how to approach this guy

He always looks mad or stoic or something. Like he’s always thinking about something.

He low key actually is always thinking about play strategies and how to set the ball better for his teammates.

You really do think he works so hard while the game is going on, so you decide to help him out a little bit.

You watch a few more of their games and somehow come up with a list of what kinds of sets are better for each different spiker in the team.

There’s surprise in his eyes when you pass the document to him and modestly exclaim “...but, it might not be accurate, since I’m not that experienced,”

He still nods and says “...It’s the thought that counts,” 

When he does read your report and try the techniques out he notices that it does hold some merit in it

Is amazed like how Zhongli is amazed. He thought you were just there to hand them bottles and cheer for them but he had never been so wrong as to what a manager’s role is.

Will trust you enough to ask you about his set performance.  

Will sometimes slam Kaeya with an insult. “Kaeya, your spike sense is horrid, Y/N can read the moves better than you,”

#5 Tartaglia (Middle Blocker/Wing Spiker)

It’s not that he has a hard time trusting people but let’s just say he has the tendency to make you feel like he likes you but then he actually does that to everyone.

For example: He’ll throw compliments like “Oh that’s amazing Y/N!” but then back in the classroom you’ll hear him say “Oh that’s amazing!” to, like, every other person. 

That kinda disappoints you cause then the comment doesn’t really hold that much meaning to it if he keeps on saying it to others too.

He encounters a crisis mid year because this guy is just... he struggles with his grades. 

Captain Zhongli has told him he can’t play volleyball if he fails even one subject.

This boy is panicking and has semi-accepted this is the end of his volleyball career.

So you offer to study with him and he’s legit stoked.

Intensive and strict study sessions commence. Note taking, pop quizzes, surprise questions and even sudden random calls from you wherein you ask him a question and he has to answer within 5 seconds.

You’ve pulled all the study techniques you know here, this man better pass everything.

Welp, he still fails History....but since he worked so hard Captain Zhongli excuses it.

He’s so happy that he can’t hold back the stupidly wide smile on his face. He turns to you and for the very very first time in months, he bows and THANKS you.

You realize that he’s never thanked you before. Not even when you pass him water bottles or towels. 

You consider it a win, getting rare and sincere appreciation from him.

#6 Kazuha (Decoy/Middle Blocker/Wing Spiker)

One of the easiest to get along with but at the same time, he’s so mature that you feel like you’re not even in the same age range as him.

Definitely someone you can count on though, so you ask him many questions on the first week.

Still, it’s one of those things where you can kind of talk to him but there’s still a wall between you two.

One day while walking around in school there were these boys who were commenting about his height, and questioning his abilities as a volleyball team member.

You didn’t really think much about it when you speak up, “But he’s a really good middle blocker and spiker,” 

Those boys look at you weirdly and you realize that you’ve unconsciously spoken up. So you hurriedly walk away.

Little did you know that Kazuha was in some secret corner and heard the whole thing.

Just like that, the next day, it seems as if the wall between you two was gone, and you’re able to talk freely.

That, and he seemed to like asking you to help him practice his spikes and throw balls for him now.

#7 Xiao (Libero)

is deceivingly easy to get along with. Just has a rough exterior but is actually a softie if you squint.

You know this because there are subtle things he does. 

He doesn’t speak to you much but then he would be the one picking up the balls with you, or sometimes there’s magically a new set of clean towels on the bench that you don’t remember taking out from the storage room.

This guy is passionate for the game, so he really beats himself up when he isn’t able to receive a ball during actual games.

You worry about his mentality sometimes. I mean, it’s a team game, it’s not like he alone can save the whole game

So you talk to him about it the other day

“You’re already a really good libero Xiao, I mean... I’m not saying you should stop practicing but you don’t have to feel so bad...” you pause because this doesn’t feel like the message you want to convey

“Sorry, what I mean is... You CAN feel bad, but share the burden with your team, you know?”

He knows what you’re saying and contemplates it for a while. He knows that his team has his back, but sometimes just needs reminder about it.

He looks at you and asks, “...Can I share the burden with you too?”

You blink “Huh?”

“You said I can share the burden with my team, but can I share it with you too?”

There is a blush on his cheeks at this point.

“Oh, yea! Of course! I don’t play but I’m still part of the team you know!”

Ever since then, during games, if he feels a little frustrated he’d glance at you on the bench and you’d give him a thumbs up for a job well done.

#8 Tohma (Pinch Server/Middle Blocker)

You’re like bffs the moment you see each other

lol jk

You’re still awkward with him the first few days cause that’s just how first meetings are.

But he is very easy to talk to and always makes you feel at ease

Will always be the one to ask how you are if you need any help or if class was okay in general

Seems like the type of person to care more about others than himself

So he’s surprised when you come into the gym and you beat him to asking his usual questions.

“Tohma, how are you today? Did you have a proper lunch?”

“Tohma, are you getting tired? Want some water?”

“Tohma, how was class today?”

All the other members of the team turn to look at the two of you, thinking ‘Why does Tohma get extra attention?’ 

Tohma certainly doesn’t get extra attention you just TALK to him more. The other members deadass are also getting cared for by you, just in different ways.

This boy has some insecurities though, when it comes to playing the game. He hasn’t been in it for long so he’s the least experienced and that gets to him sometimes.

“Oh, really? But you play really well! I couldn’t tell that you’re new” 

His serves are really amazing though.

“Also! You always score points for us with the serves. Sometimes, your serves are my favourite part of the game!”

Has practiced extra hard so as not to let you down.

——————————————————————————————-

You hated being small. Not only was it very inconvenient it was also very unattractive in your opinion. In your class all of the other girls were tall and slender with modelesque features. Then there was you. Barely even there. This fact was made painfully more apparent by the 5”10 boy that stuck to you like glue. Speaking of, where was he?

“Wait up, Elfie!” you heard a voice shout, echoing across your college courtyard. Speak of the devil, you thought as you turned around to see him leisurely jogging towards you.

Because your mums were best friends, Jeon Jungkook had been beside you ever since you both could walk. In fact, your first ever memory was of him putting a band aid over your knee after you’d embarrassingly fell off of your bike. You don’t know why but you remember having little butterflies in your tummy as you looked down at him tending your wound. The feeling was bizarre and you acted on what your primal instinct told you to do. You kicked him, not hard but hard enough to frazzle him and knock him onto his butt. In your immature 4-year-old state, you recall telling him “Get off me! I’m not a baby you know!”. You can’t imagine what he must have thought as you proclaimed your maturity while you stood there in pig tails and overalls with puffy red tear-stained cheeks.

Since then, that’s how it had always been. Every time Jungkook showed you any kind of kindness or affection, you’d get all huffy and embarrassed and lash out at him. You didn’t know what this emotion was until Jungkook got his first girlfriend when you were 13. It was only when you saw him holding hands with someone else that the jealousy you felt in your heart was confirmation of the big fat crush you had on him.

“We’re in college now, must you insist on still calling me that stupid name?” you said shortly as he reached his rightful place beside you

“Sorry little elf, some nicknames just stick for life. Plus, you’ll never grow out of it cause you’ll always be my adorable little elf” He retorted while reaching down to ruffle your hair

You felt heat run over your cheeks at his praise and you did what came naturally to you. You punched him in the arm.

“s-shut up Jeon!” you yelled as he giggled “Might have to nickname you Mike Tyson instead Elfie, your punches are getting a lot harder these days haha” he continued to chuckle as you couldn’t help but notice that one dimple in his cheek that also appeared when he was concentrating very hard on somethi-

“Anyway!” he interrupted pulling you out of whatever jeon Jungkook rabbit hole you were about to fall into

“Are you still coming with me to Taehyungs party tonight?” he questioned

“Of course I am, you promised you’d buy me pizza after so I’m contractually obligated now” you said rolling your eyes.

Taehyung was an old teammate of Jungkook’s that went to a different college, they used to play on the same soccer team in 4th grade and I guess they just developed a bond and stayed friends. You weren’t really close to any of Jungkook’s other friends. Part of you was afraid that they’d see past your little act and know how much you liked him. So, you didn’t really hang out with anyone except Jungkook really.

“Nice! Alright Elfie, I need to run cause I’m late for class but I’ll pick you up at 9, yeah? Don’t be late” He semi yelled, already running to class.

True to his word. He was at your dorm room at 9pm on the dot. Regardless of that, you still planned to teas him anyway.

“You’re 20 seconds late jeo-” you stopped midsentence. Jungkook had always been handsome and always had a sense of style you found charming but tonight was a completely different ball game.

There he stood dressed in all black looking like an absolute dream.

“My eyes are up here Elfie” he teased

“Ew! Don’t flatter yourself bunny! I just noticed that this is the first time you haven’t looked like you just rolled out of bed is all” you lied, turning back into your dorm trying desperately to hide your reddening cheeks.

“Is that your way of telling me I look good?” he replied. You couldn’t see him but you could hear the smirk in his voice

“I guess…” you mumbled “Let’s get going before were late” you rushed as you grabbed your bag, hoping this would be the end of this conversation.

"Well since were handing out compliments, I think you look really pretty tonight elfie. your legs look amazing in that dress"

"Shut up!" you yelled as you watched his shoulders bob up and down as he laughed.

"Also, remember to grab your ID! Tae's party is BYOB so, we'll need to swing by the store before we get there" he said absentmindedly leaning on your doorframe as he watched you grab your bits and bobs.

"I feel like I'll lose it, can you look after it for me?"

"Hey, what my elf wants, she gets" he replied while you rolled your eyes.

Honestly speaking, Taehyung's party was actually kind of fun. It was very loud, naturally, so loud the bass of the music made your body feel like it was vibrating. So Jungkook, being himself, took you and a group of his friends outside to sit around the fire pit so you can actually hear one another talk.

Naturally, you spent the whole night stuck to Jungkook’s side. Listening to his stories and watching him animatedly talk about how him and Taehyung used to piss of the coach by ‘accidentally’ coming to practice 15 minutes late and missed the intense part of the warm up.

You were in love with this boy. Why was that so hard for you to admit to him? It’s like every time he would even look at you with the universe shining in those big Bambi eyes, he could see your soul. It’s like he was looking into your truth but choosing to ignore it. He made you so nervous all you wanted to do was climb underneath the surface of the earth and never come out. You felt naked under his gaze, it was uncomfortable but it was a feeling you never wanted to be without.

While you were lost in your thoughts, you felt Jungkook stand up while looking at his phone.

“Everything good, bunny?” you questioned

“Yeah, Elfie, everything’s fine. A friend of mine has just shown up, I’m gonna go grab her”

Her? As confident and beautiful as Jungkook was, you knew he was pretty much allergic to other girls. In the years that you’d known him, the only women he ever spoke to were either related to him or you. Leaving out his 13-year-old girlfriend cause that relationship was the most awkward thing you’d ever seen. Didn’t stop you feeling jealous though. And as you watched him walk away a similar feeling was bubbling in your chest.

“She’s just a friend you know.” A voice beside you rang. You looked over to see Tae looking in your direction.

“They’re partners in their sports science class, that’s how he knows her. No need to look so worried.” He winked. Were you that obvious?

“N-no, it’s not like that. I don’t care who he talks to” you protested eagerly. God, you didn’t sound very convincing at all.

“You didn’t sound very convincing at all” Taehyung snickered, practically reading your mind.

You looked at him, slightly embarrassed, but you joined in on his laughter. You didn’t expect Taehyung to be this nice, honestly. A very pleasant surprise.

You continued casual small talk with Tae until you heard a booming voice in front of you.

“Guys, this is my lovely friend Rose! Be very nice to her, she lets me cheat off her test so I need to stay on her good side” Jungkook joked.

As soon as your eyes set on her, you felt yourself shrink even smaller. She was beautiful and tall and way better than you. She was the kind of girl you’d see on Pinterest drinking Iced coffee and writing on a laptop in Starbucks. She looked like she sociable as her eyes darted to everyone, she met them with a charming smile revealing her perfect teeth. The thing that hurt you the most, they looked amazing together. You could not compete, even if you tried

“Taehyung! Long-time no see! How the hell have you been, still causing trouble?” Rose chimed as she walked over to Tae, almost completely ignoring you. Well, you wished she had completely ignored you cause what she did next was entirely worse.

As she walked over to Tae, her eyes landed on you and she let out an audible gasp. She stopped mid stride, causing people around us to look at her and she loudly proclaimed:

“Oh my gosh you are so cute! You’re actually the most adorable little person I’ve ever seen! I can’t believe it, Kookie, you said she was small but I didn’t know you meant this small, she’s adorable” she proclaimed loudly.

You wanted to completely disappear. Several eyes now landed on you, examining if her words were true. You wanted to simply disappear. At that moment you turned to Jungkook, telepathically pleading for help.

“I know right! She’s fucking adorable” he chortled in agreement looking down at you

“Little Elfie”. That was it, you stood up and left. Completely humiliated and on the verge of tears. You pushed past Jungkook, making sure to give him a punch in his arm as you passed.

You just wanted to leave. You just wanted to be away from people. You didn’t want to exist right at that very moment.

You pushed past the bodies of people in the house and made it to the front door. You were about to pull it open until you felt a hand holding your arm. You knew it was him, so you did what naturally came to you, you spun round and gave him a slap.

Only for you to be humiliated further because you realised, you’d just slapped Kim Taehyung in the front entrance of his own house.

“Oh my god! I am so sorry!”

“Damn, you must really be pissed off at him huh?” he laughed rubbing his cheek trying to play off the fact that you’d just novella slapped him in the face. “let’s get you some air” he said as he led you outside.

You both sat down on the steps of his porch and stared into the night sky. The cold breeze and lack of social stimulation allowed the fact that you had just acted completely irrationally to sink in. And thus furthered your embarrassment.

“Wanna talk about it?” he asked, still looking into the sky. You appreciated that he was giving you space and not staring you down in a vulnerable moment.

You let out and exasperated huff of air “I made a completed ass of myself, didn’t I?” you said, looking down into the grass unable to look up as the sky reminded you of him.

“I dint mean to get upset but I’m aware that I’m small, doesn’t mean I like it”

“But your cute thou- “

“That doesn’t matter! I’m in my 20s! I’m an adult and everyone still treats me like a kid. Especially Jungkook. He treats me like I’m made of glass or something. I’m never allowed to be independent or do anything on my own because he won’t let me. Cause he’s always fucking there. Like I’m some charity case or something.” You rushed.

You didn’t really know you felt like that. Once the words started they just wouldn’t stop.

“Damn, does Jungkook know you feel like that?” Tae questioned trying to be as gentle as possible knowing that you were very sensitive right now

“of course not. How could I possibly tell him that I feel babied by him?” you huffed again

“You could try? I’m sure he’d understand and give you some space.” He suggested

You shook your head, not believing him.

“Look, I know you know Jungkook better than anyone. You know that this is just how he is. I remember one summer I broke my leg and had to miss 3 months of practice. Still Jungkook would come to my house every day and fill me in on what I missed. So much so, that it was getting to the point where it was annoying so I had to tell him to chill. We know that’s just how he is; he doesn’t like to see loved ones at a disadvantage. So, he’ll go out of his way to make sure they know they’re valued. Ya know?” He spoke, still looking up.

“I guess you’re right” you agreed, sheepishly.

“Just be honest with the kid, eh? About everything. And I mean everything” his head finally turned to you with his eyebrow cocked. You felt your face redden again.

“Okay, your right, I will” you nodded. As you got up and readied yourself to go back into the trenches of that party, you felt your phone vibrate in your back pocket. It was a text form Jungkook and it read:

You were shocked. Jungkook had never left you on your own before. He must think you’re gonna punch him again.

You asked tae to walk you home and he did. You texted jungkook as you you started getting ready for bed:

No reply. Which was odd but you paid it no mind. Until you did.

It had been 5 days since Jungkook had read your text but hadn’t gotten back to you. This is the longest you’ve gone without seeing him in, well, ever. You were debating whether or not to march over to his dorm until you walked past your campus coffee shop and saw him with Rose.

They were smiling and cozy and looked like they were having a good time. It was then that you had come to the realisation that the thought you had at the party about them looking good together wasn’t induced by the influence of the alcohol but was a stone cold fact. They looked like the kind of couple you’d see in a kdrama and that felt like a dagger to the heart.

You turned back the way you came in an attempt to block the tears but the image of them both was burned in your mind and you were sure it was going to be scorched there forever.

You burst through your dorm door, jumped on your bed and sobbed. All the regrets you had finally pouring out of you, like a dam finally bursting. You don’t know how long you were crying for but when you looked up out your window, it was nightfall. You had probably cried yourself to sleep and it was a firm knock on the door that had disturbed your pity party.

You tried your best to compose yourself as you walked to the door. You hesitantly pulled open the door and there he stood. Jeon Jungkook

“Sorry to bother you but, you left your ID with me. I figured you might nee- Have you been crying?” he interrupted himself.

“No!” You said sharply

“Oh, okay. Well, here you go” he said as he placed the ID in your palm.

“Are you fucking kidding me? Is that it? You se me with puffy eyes, a runny nose and moist cheeks and you just leave?” you yelled

“I asked you if you were crying, you said ‘no’, so I was going to be on my way. I didn’t wanna push you” he rebuttled with unarguable logic

“But I was obviously lying! Do you just not care anymore?! Now you have Rose, you just don’t care?!”

“WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU WANT FROM ME _____?!” he yelled. You cant remember the last time he’d used your actual name  

“Wow, so that’s it? Years of friendship over because you found someone else” your voice cracked as you held back tears

“_____, what are you talking about? Rose has a girlfriend. Plus you’re the one who was sat bitching to Taehyung about how suffocating I am and how I baby you but when I finally listen and decide to give you space, you lash out at me. So please, please tell me, what the fuck is going on in that brain of yours”

“IM IN LOVE WITH YOU! YOU JERK!” You screamed.

There was a stillness after your revelation. Not an awkward one like you’d expected, it was like a calmness after a storm, like everything was back to how it was meant to be or maybe it had become something new and better entirely.

“What?” he asked softly

“I’m in love with you” you said looking away from him now, so much for the stillness. “I always have been. I never told you cause I never know how and I knew you saw me as nothing more than a little kid you needed to take care of.” You grumbled

After a brief pause, Jungkook began to laugh. Not just a little snort or chuckle but a full-blown belly laugh at the front door of your dorm. You’re not gonna lie, it stung a little

“I’m glad you find me so funny asshole” you said as you swung back ready to punch him. He grabbed your fist before you could strike.

“Hey what are- “he cut off your rant with a kiss. As your lips met, all the feelings of embarrassment and anger melted away and the calmness returned. This felt right”

He pulled away, arms wrapping around your waist.

“You idiot, I love you too. You were always so cold towards my affection I just assumed it was one sided. The only way I could show how much I cared for you was by always being by your side. It was the only thing you never punched me for” he said as he looked into your eyes

You wanted to hit him again but you fought your instinct and instead caressed his face and pulled him into another kiss.

You felt like you weighed nothing as Jungkook carried you across your dorm over to your bedroom, legs now wrapped around his waist. Still fully captivated with your lips on his, you hadn’t realised that he had stopped at the bottom of your bed with you still in his arms.

With his knee now pressed into the mattress, he placed you down gently on your sheets; hair sprawled out delicately on your pillows before his smooth lips went back to giving desperate kisses.

With your eyes shut tight, due to sheer embarrassment, you felt Jungkook’s lips trail down your jaw. You paused, held your breath, while you felt his tongue across the skin of your neck. Instinctively, you raised your hand brushed your fingers through Jungkook’s dark locks as his kisses to your neck became more vigorous. You could feel his entire weight pressing into you, and it only made you want him more.

Jungkook could clearly see your chest rising and falling as he undid the buttons of your shirt. You watched him as he began to shed the material off your body – feeling the cold air of your room come into contact with your naked chest.

Suddenly, you remembered where you were, what you were doing and who you were doing it with and you suddenly became shy again.

“D-don’t look at me, you perv” you chastised while raising your hands to cover yourself. Jungkook immediately took you by your wrists – pinning them to the bed.

“You don’t hide from me _____” the deep softness of his voice sent goosebumps along your skin.

“Do you want this, _____? Do...do you want me to do this?”

“S-stop calling me that!” you pouted. Your name sounded foreign on his lips  

“Oh?”, he said, with a mischievous smirk in his tone, “I thought you didn’t like Elfie”

“I don’t like it…I just like that it’s what you call me” you whispered bashfully unable to look at him.

You felt the breath of his chuckle hit your naked skin and the sensation made your underwear damper than it already was.

“Well, if that’s what my Elfie wants, it what she gets”

He continued his trail down your body stopping just before your folds, noticing that you were now rolling your hips ever so slightly and in desperate need of some form of friction.

“Not so tough now, are we princess? Look how desperate you are for me” he teased while slowly pulling down your underwear. You almost begged, but your pride held it in. You knew you would not be able to take the anticipation any more as you felt his breath fan over your wetness.

Without any more hesitation, Jungkook let his tongue pass his lips and lightly trail over your slit, feeling you gasp from the contact. You felt his tongue pass through your folds as he began giving you small, gentle licks to get you used to the sensation.

“Jungkook....oh my gosh...” you moaned, feeling his tongue put more pressure on your swollen nub before his lips covered it – sucking hard and pleasuring you in the most intense way you had ever felt.

Your sounds filled your room while you made eye contact with him between your legs.

“Why the hell are you looking at me?” you groaned trying to maintain your bravado. Your body betrayed you though as you found yourself letting out a loud moan while you found yourself reaching with your hand down towards his free one, and Jungkook instantly picked up on your need to have your fingers intertwined in his. He took your hand – letting you squeeze the upper-side of his palm, and he loved the feeling. Of you. Of you needing him.

“Are you sure you want to do this? We can stop if you don’t feel comfortable, Elfie.”  he looked you dead in your eyes with his thumbs resting on the waistline of his jeans.

You nodded at him silently “I want you Kookie…just – don’t be too rough with me, okay?” you said gently, finally allowing yourself to be gentle with him.

Jungkook smiled at you, taking note that you were allowing him in. Both your heart and your body.

“I’ll be gentle...this time, princess” he murmured with deviance, leaving you with a shocked look on your face as you thought “This time...meaning, there’ll be a next time?”

Jungkook positioned himself slowly at your entrance, leaning his weight on his knees as the moonlight shone through your window and cascaded shadows over your body. You looked like a dream. You looked like his dream.

“______” Jungkook whispered softly, gazing into your stare while he ran the back of his finger along your burning cheek. “I-” he paused as you hung off his every word.

“I love you”

“I- love you too, Jungkook” you replied without needing any time to think about it. In any other situation, you would have probably stopped breathing at his confession and hit him but upon hearing his tender, delicate confession while you were both at your most vulnerable state, you could only smile and pulled him in for a gentle kiss. This was it; he had broken down your walls and you were his.

As the kiss turned sweet, you felt the tip of his cock probe your entrance – sliding himself in as gently as he could. You shut your eyes tight, relishing in the feeling of his intrusion as he explored your body. Jungkook almost gasped at your tightness gripping his shaft – how warm you made him feel had him rendered almost completely still. He stopped at certain intervals, making sure you were okay in between kisses.  Before he finally sunk his length inside you entirely, you whimpered into his ear, lightly trailing your nails along the skin of his shoulder blades. Jungkook returned his forehead to yours, both your lips ghosting over each other’s as he pulled back out slowly – before entering you once more. Soft sighs and gasps left both of your lips as Jungkook kept a slow, controlled movement – knowing that he had played with you enough beforehand to ready you for the experience

He leaned back, placing his hands on either side of your rib-cage as he repositioned his legs beneath him. “If it’s too much I’ll stop” he panted, seeing you nod he began setting a slightly quicker pace inside you. You could feel the natural curve of his cock reach deep within your snug tightness, making you moan his name along with a string of curses.

“Say my name again Elfie..., you sound so pretty. I want to hear you...louder...” Jungkook produced a low growl as he gripped your frame tighter. You obeyed his commands, letting his name fall from your lips “Jungkook” you mewled

“Not that name, baby” he replied while thrusting into you.

“Please…Kookie” you corrected, earning you a needy groan from him.  You raised your arms above your head and rested them on the top end of the pillow. Jungkook became captivated by the natural bounce of your breasts below him with each thrust he gave you, reaching up to hold both of them in each hand while caressing you in a gentle, yet forceful way.

You didn’t blush at the sound of your lewd wetness lapping between your legs or at the sound of his skin slapping against yours. In fact, you found yourself loving those sounds, mixed with Jungkook’s deep growling and panting that let you know he felt damn good inside you.

Jungkook pressed his lips to yours a final time, before feeling the tightness of your orgasm contract around his length – hearing you cry out as he swallowed your voice with his kisses. As you dug your nails into his back, Jungkook hissed at the sensation – before letting go entirely and spilling his seed into you. You loved hearing him shamelessly moan your nickname over and over again in your ear, feeling him twitch inside you – before feeling his tensed-up muscles relax on top of you.

“Elfie...” Jungkook whispered, large breaths escaping both your lips as he slowed his movements, gently pulling himself out of you.

You couldn’t speak. You couldn’t even formulate a basic thought, for all you could feel was the purest form of happiness.

“Are you okay? I didn’t hurt you, did I?” Jungkook returned to your side, his eyes searching your features for any sign of pain or discomfort. But instead, he was met by a faint, gentle smile on your lips.

“I’m...I’m great. You’re great. Kookie…” you replied hazily, pressing your hand to his chest and taking another look at his naked body next to yours.

You both rested there, wrapped up in each other’s post orgasmic embrace in comfortable science. Both not realising that the other was thinking the same thing:

‘I love you, idiot’
