I never knew snails liked being pet. I mean, I didn't know they could feel anything outside their shell, so I'm going to inform you how to pet a snail.
First, wash your hands and keep them slightly wet.
Pick up your snail, by the shell.
Now, when petting the snail it is important to not touch their skin, only their shell.
Then, stroke or touch the shell lightly with the grain, rather than against it.
When done, wash your hands again.
Petting the shell is a great way to interact with your snail and to “play” with it.

throwback to when i had a pet isopod that basically lived in the empty snail shells i put in the terrarium

hello!
i'm curious if infodumping about my pet frogs will result in a genome of a bug that they could potentially eat (seems more likely than the genome being of a frog).
i have four pet frogs! one is an african dwarf frog named bonk who is an ooooold old man (he's 5, which is the standard life expectancy in captivity for their species) with a genetic deformity on his back right foot (two of his toes are partially fused together! it doesn't impact his life in any way and various foot deformities are common for his species). he is tiny and doesn't eat bugs, but if the genome is a brine shrimp, mysis shrimp, or other tiny aquatic organism, he could eat that. ...i guess those are just aquatic bugs.
my three other frogs are white's tree frogs, piphy, ollo, and beeps. they are 4 years old. piphy is my only girl frog. she is large and peach-colored with light blue starlet eyes and is an extremely physically enthusiastic eater; she does unnecessary backflips in pursuit of waxworms held by feeding tongs directly in front of her face. she also loves swimming in their pool, which has resulted in various melodic renditions of "piphy in the pool." ollo and beeps are smaller and a dark brownish green, i think they are genetically brothers! they enjoy being reverse-roosters by croaking when they wake up at night. they are energetic and enjoy climbing my walls and flinging themselves far distances when i let them out of their terrarium for nightly supervised enrichment hour.
bonus: i also have a black racer nerite snail who is the live-in algae vacuum for bonk's tank. her name is ozmi and she is canonically trans (her species is not hermaphroditic, and when i got her i decided she was a girl because i wanted to bring feminine energy into the aquarium, but she has never laid eggs so i figure she is probably trans). she is also 5 years old which means she has outlived the life expectancy for her species like 3x over. she may be immortal.
okay that's all!!! attached photo of piphy in her pool, looking elated about it (tree frogs tend to open their mouths a few times after eating a bug... i am not sure the physiological reason). i find your blog so delightful, thank you for running it !! :)

Sanji in his little "Kiss the Cook" apron.
Is it romantic? Starting as a joke with kisses on the cheek and temple until the two of you end up full on making out?
Or is it platonic? With the straw hats giving him little kisses in passing, starting with Luffy and spreading through the crew until even Zoro relents? Because what's better than kissing the homies goodnight?
You tell me snail, what's the move?
-♡♡ lots of love
"porque no los dos?"
Kiss the Cook
Masterlist here
Word Count: 1,700+
Tumblr media
Synopsis: Sanji was gifted an apron from Nami after returning back from town. Every member of the crew aside from Zoro and you have followed the embroidered instructions written on his chest, and he wasn't happy about the lack of kisses from you. You finally relent and give him what he wants.
Themes: platonic kisses, fluff, implied f!reader - but can be read as gn!reader, sanji has feelings for you, you have unspoken feelings for sanji, idiots in love, Sanji has lost that 'line-cook rizz'.
Notes: This has been in my ask box for less than a day. I don't know what it is about you, anon. As soon as I see those two little hearts I'm just overtaken by something. I blame the "kisses". @chikariart on twitter.

“Could these onions misbehave any more?” the chef grumbled under his breath, gritting his teeth and clamping hard down on his cigarette, “C’mon, now. What have I gotta do to get your layers off? Talk dirty to you?” He used the steel edge of his knife to attempt to pry the brown outer layer away from its fleshy underside with shaking hands. 
Sanji’s nerves were ignited, his whole composure on edge and waiting for the next intrusion in his kitchen and potential distraction from his work. 
When Nami brought the frilly pink apron his way, he was initially ecstatic at the notion he was thought of enough to be given a little gift. But as the red embroidery with white stitched hearts expressed consent for his body to be given sweet kisses at all times, he was truly alert. With an assault of affection from all who approached him each time he adorned the fabric in its wake, he was finding it difficult to focus on each mundane kitchen task. 
In this case, peeling onions was the bane of his existence. As the flickered peel almost withdrew from the circular bulb, it split and only chipped off a small amount of the outer layer. 
Sanji loved kisses, adored kisses: all the cheek, forehead and shoulder kisses he'd received from the crew. Cheeky Nami kisses, soft Robin kisses, and nibbled toothy kisses from Chopper were his favorites. 
He was less enthusiastic about hulking, wet kisses from Franky, nor the hungry cheek kisses from Luffy which was used to depict the state of his appetite. Usopp was the middle ground, his kisses were a tease on his shoulder with a rough clap and a gaggle of laughter immediately thereafter.
Brook’s kisses were actually quite funny to the blonde cook. As the skeleton man had no lips to kiss with, he resigned himself to the notion of simply walking past him, and taunting him with a melodic hum of the words: “kiss,” “kisses,” or an emphatic “mwah,” as he did so.
Of the members of the remaining crew, he was happy that the stinky moss-head kept his lips to himself. There was no way he would allow him the closer proximity to his body without starting a sparring match. He was, however, not so happy that you were yet to place your lips sweetly on the apple of his cheek. 
Sanji adored you, wanted to treat you with the utmost respect and dote on you alongside the other members of the crew. You were special to him, and he rationalized that his small crush was why he was craving a scrap of your attention so much. As he continued cursing at the onions, he heard a soft tap on the doorway to the kitchen. 
“Need help, cook?” Sanji looked up, noticing you leaning on the side of the door. He smiled softly at you, biting back his smile and gulping his insecurity. 
“Oh, beautiful angel,” he managed to turn away from the counter and look out the window as he resumed his battle with the onions, “I'm all good here, don't you worry yourself. Go relax with the others.” You clicked your tongue and stepped closer to the bench and stood a few feet away from the blonde cook. 
Noticing his posture, you knit your brows in puzzlement. He was twitching while he was going about his peeling, finally managing to coax the shell away from the exterior and sigh in relief. His cheeks were tinted a soft shade of pastel pink, his nose the most darkened by the blushy hue. 
Looking down, the frilly pink apron with ‘Kiss the Cook,’ held the final piece of information as to his nervous composure. You smiled softly at him, looking to where his hands skillfully minced the onions and threw them into a scorching pot with molten butter and aromatic herbs. 
He rinsed his hands in the sink, lathering them with soapy froth and soaking the suds with glassy water. The scent from the pot of sweetened onions with rosemary, sage and thyme had your mouth salivating in anticipation of what was to come. 
“What's cooking, good looking?” you smiled at him softly, gesturing with your chin to the pot on the stove. He froze up, his ears tinting darker with the shade of pink. 
“J-Just a mirepoix,” he stuttered out, prompting you to shake your head and offer him a soft laugh in response. Taking the extinguished cigarette out of his lips, he placed the butt in the bin beneath the sink. 
Noticing the tension in his body, you reach up and place a hand on his shoulder to urge him to turn to face you. He meets his gray orbs with yours, a sheepish look on his face as you gaze up into his eyes. 
“You've been off the line for too long, Sanji,” you scrunch your nose up playfully at him, “Lost that flirtatious kitchen charisma and banter, blushing like a bride at the most simple of compliments. What's going on with you?” You graze your fingers along his jaw, leaving a rising layer of goose flesh in its wake. 
“I-It’s-...” Sanji gulped his nerves back, hanging his head with a soft laugh and subtle shake in response, “...It's this stupid apron.” You look down at the apron with a smirk. 
“What about the ‘stupid apron’, Sanji?” you ask with a raised brow before gazing back into his eyes, “Not your color?” He continued smiling and shaking his head at you before looking up through his eyelashes into your questioning and puzzled eyes. 
“To be honest with you,” he sucked his bottom lip between his teeth to halt his words from sounding too eager, “I actually love it. Even though it started as a joke, it has actually made a big difference the way I’ve been feeling lately.” He shrugged, turning his eyes back to the ground and snickering, “Stupid, right?” 
Cupping his face, you elevate his head and hum at him in deep contemplation. 
“Not stupid,” you shrug at him, darting your eyes between his and flickering your gaze down to his lips, “Not stupid at all.” His breath hitched in his throat, eyes beginning to fill with hope as you drew your face ever closer to his. 
Closing his eyes, he parted his lips and anticipated feeling yours brush with them. His heart beat in his throat, his ears hearing that drum of hope ringing with his elevated pulse. As he drew his face closer still, the balloon of anticipation was instantly deflated as he felt your lips brush with the apple of his cheek and linger for less than a single second. 
As you withdrew from his cheek, Sanji was left feeling like a complete idiot. He stared vacantly, directly ahead with unblinking eyes and his ego completely deflated. His heart fizzled out like a flame being snuffed by a wet blanket. 
Looking at his vacant expression and the soft blush on his cheeks, you couldn’t help yourself. A single, timid kiss was not enough of an indulgence to grant to the blonde cook, in your opinion. You leaned forward once more, pressing a soft kiss on his angular jaw before pressing another on his neck above his pulse and beneath his ear lobe. 
Sanji’s breath hitched, his hands opening and closing in clenched fists and shaking extensions. Gasping, he leant his head to the side and whimpered at the soft touches you were pressing into his skin. His pulse quickened, his breath hitched, and his eyes clenched tightly shut as he argued with himself where to place his hands on you. 
Trailing your lips down to his collarbone, you pressed a sweet and gentle kiss against the bone before clamping your teeth down onto the flesh. Sanji mewled in pleasure at the attention, throwing his head back and drawing up his forearm to his face to catch the damp blood from exiting his nose. His head was dizzy, his lips parting and whining as he felt your tongue swirl around the soft bite to his collar. 
Pulling away from him, you sucked your lips into your mouth and bit-back your smile at his reaction. He slowly drew his eyes down to meet yours, the irises eclipsed by blown pupils and his desire. Giggling at him, you tilted your head to the side and clasped your hands behind your back and rocked on your feet. 
Sanji surged his body forward, claiming your cheeks beneath his hands and carding his fingers through your hair the moment his lips descended onto yours. You squeaked in response, immediately placing your hands on Sanji’s hips as he pinned you against the sink with his hips. His kisses were needy, desperate and full of desire. 
As he rotated his chin to deepen the oscillation, you reached up to his shoulder and tapped it twice while gasping in his mouth. He tugged himself away, looking down at you in shock with wide eyes and panting breath.
“I-I’m sorry, I’m sorry,” he began to hastily relay his apologies, “I didn’t mean to do that, truly. The other kisses I get from the crew are usually a little more hasty and less indulgent. I didn’t want to make you uncomfortable or anything, honest-.”
“-Sanji,” you laugh at him, looking up through half-hooded lashes and brushing your nose with his, “Your mirepoix is going to burn.” 
Immediately, Sanji broke himself away from you and stomped over to the large pot. He grumbled as he stirred the aromatics with a wooden spoon, growling under his breath, “This stupid apron has been nothing but a complete distraction.” You giggled at him as he aggressively began stirring at the pot to salvage the caramelizing vegetables. 
“That’s it,” he tore the apron away from his chest and cast it to the side, “No more kisses in the kitchen. I refuse to have good food spoil because I’ve been getting distracted by soft kisses… sweet kisses…” he trailed off, fishing around in his pocket for a cigarette after he rotated the vegetables within the butter. 
Shaking your head, you go and retrieve the apron from where he cast it aside and hung it over the kitchen table. Eyeing him over mischievously, you walk over to him and hold his hips firmly from behind and place one more soft kiss between his shoulder blades. 
“Come find me when you want to put on that stupid apron again, hm?” you utter, releasing his hips and making your way over to the kitchen doorway and out of the room with haste. 
Sanji shook his head with a warm smile and a dark blush. Looking to where you had just left, he sighed deeply and began to focus solely on the meal preparation with no more cause for distraction.

Over and Over Again.
Portgas D. Ace x Reader
Summary: It was one thing to find out that other timelines exist, but it was another to find out your place in them. Especially when that place was at the side of a man you didn’t call yours in this timeline.
Inspired by the “Would you fall in love with me again” trend 🤷‍♀️
Tumblr media
I will fall in love with you, over and over again.
The tavern is lively, loud voices echoing and the drinks flowing easily. Ace pushes the swinging door open to step inside and a few heads turn.
Fire fist Ace had a certain presence about him, after all.
With a quick scan of the room, Ace drifts a step closer to you, arm brushing you own. “Stay close.” He mutters as he pushes through to the bar top. Ace presses his way in and nudges open a spot for you at his side. “We’re looking for someone.” The bartender regards Ace closely before offering you the same close observation. “Teller.”
“What do you need with the woman?” Eyes narrow at the two of you.
“Information.” You speak up, the skepticism written on his face. “We aren’t looking for any trouble.” The man clicks his tongue as if debating if that was true.
With a narrow eyed look at Ace, he finally relents. “Side door, end of the hall. We will be notified if you two cause us any trouble and trust me, you don’t want to cause any trouble.”
Ace almost laughs but feels your elbow nudging into his ribs in warning.
You follow the man’s directions to a door with orange tinted stain. You offer a soft knock, but Ace pushes straight into the room without a second to protest.
The old woman is sat cross legged, iridescent orange scales running along her exposed ankle before disappearing into the flowy pants she wore, with a pleasant smile on her face. You both step into the room with determination, but falter as she speaks your names into the quiet room. “I’ve been expecting you both.”
“Expecting-“
“We are looking for someone.” Ace’s deep voice interrupts you in effort to hide your shared surprise.
Ace was a skeptic in a sense. Seeking out the mermaid living far from fishman island hadn’t been his idea. The man had no qualms with mermaids as a whole, but this one was different. She was rumored to be the only person on this plane of existence that can tap into other existences- other timelines of the world. It was a notion that made Ace very uncomfortable.
But this other worldly ability meant that she could find anyone, anywhere, in any existence.
Ace is rigid as Teller speaks, and business is completed without a hitch. The woman was wise beyond years and seemed very eager to lend her aid for whatever reason. That’s what made you uncomfortable. Her willingness to lend the aid to total strangers.
He leaves the room first with a borrowed transponder snail in hand. You thank the woman and make to follow after him- when her voice catches your attention.
“The two of you always come to me.” Teller speaks in such an assured tone that you cannot question her certainty. “And you will always continue to, i presume.”
“What do you mean?”
“You and the commander.” Her eyes search past your shoulder to where Ace had already disappeared out of the room. “You’re led here for different reasons, for the most part, but you’re always together. You always find each other. And he always has that love sick look on his face. In the vast expansion of my… talents… It’s the one thing I never tire of.”
“We always find each other?”
“It doesn’t matter what timeline, or where the two of you begin. You always end up right here together. You always end up looking at him with just as much adoration as you held today.”
“He and I aren’t together-“
“Ah, not in this universe.” She nods with pursed lips, which quickly turn to a bright smile. “Not yet at least.”
You’re in a daze as you step out of the room. Ace was your crewmate, your second division commander, and your best friend. You met by chance and he was more than enthusiastic to introduce you to the man that saved him as well. And you have been inseparable since.
There was something different about your relationship with Ace. You didn’t treat each other the same as you did the rest of the crew, and you were often the one Ace sought out any time he needed someone to aid him on a mission. No matter where you were, Ace protected you like his own life depended on it, and you offered him that same grace anytime you were given the chance. You held an affection for him that you refused to admit out loud.
“Everything okay?” Ace startles you from your trance. He narrows his eyes, “Did she say something to you?”
“N-no. It’s all good.” You force your smile at him.
I don’t care how, where, or when.
You always find each other. The words have played in your mind since the meeting with Teller the previous night. You and Ace have docked on a small island with seemingly no inhabitants. The striker wasn’t good for overnight travel, after all.
Ace crouches by the stack of firewood, the logs catching with a simple flick of his wrist. “Come on, it’s cold out.” He call you over with a smile.
It’s a simple gesture but your mind lingers on it longer than normal.
No matter how long it’s been,
You stare into the flames in silence, yet your thoughts are racing a million miles a second.
Ace watches you with worry furrowing his brow. Teller had said something to you. He didn’t know what she could have said to make you so distracted and he certainly didn’t know what it could be to make you lie about it. He hated that. Portgas D Ace was a man with a million secrets, but never from you. He would never lie to you. You were far too special to him.
The silence was killing him.
“What’s going on?”
His attention is focused solely on you and you are more than aware of the way heat prickles over your cold skin. You wonder how long his attention has made you react like this.
You meet his eye for just a moment before looking back to the fire. “It’s nothing.”
Ace leans over to you, placing two fingers to your jaw to force you to look at him. “What’s going on? You know you can talk to me.” You swallow hard under his gaze.
You take in a deep breath. “It’s, uhm, something Teller said to me.” Ace blows out a breath as you tell him this. He knew it.
“What did she say?”
Your eyes fall back to the fire. “Something about the timelines, ‘bout us.”
“Us?” Ace swallows hard.
“That we always find each other.” You worry one of the buttons from your jacket between your fingers. “We always end up together, even though we aren’t in this timeline. Not yet, at least.” Heat rises to your cheeks. “That’s what she said.”
Ace hums in thought. “But we are together?” Your eyes narrow at Ace and it doesn’t take him long at all to connect the dots. “Oh.”
“Yeah.” You slowly nod.
Ace fidgets with the beaded bracelet around his wrist. “And that,” His voice is low and hesitant. “That bothers you?” You’re shaking your head before you can properly think about it.
“I’ve never really,” You trail off as you consider his words. “Thought about it, I guess.”
The only thing you can hear is the flickering of the flames. Ace bites at his lip as he battles with his thoughts. He always saw himself as someone who was cursed. Someone destined to fail. A bloodline to end. But how could that be so if he ended up with you in every time line? He couldn’t think of anything he was less deserving of, and yet…
“I have.” He declares before he can consider it further. “I’ve, uh, thought about it before. A lot actually.”
The confession takes you by surprise. “You have?” You breathe out, now meeting his gaze in a way that was unwavering. Ace nods and you can make out a faint blush through the light of the fire. “I never did until,” You tip your head. “Until now. It’s like it all… makes sense.”
Ace leans in a little bit closer to envelope you in his familiar warmth. His hand moves to hold your jaw once again, but this time you don’t want to look away. Half lidded eyes flicker to your lips in a silent question.
You tip your head in confirmation.
Your lips meet in a slow and delicate kiss. It’s unfamiliar as if you were now mapping out the feel of each other just as you have mapped out countless islands. Ace pulls you in closer and a warm arm moves around you to hold you to him. You chin tips to deepen the kiss, to take more of him. And he freely gives it to you.
Neither of you seem to want to pull away, but your lungs almost start to burn. You reluctantly break the kiss, still holding each other close, noses brushing together.
A smile pulls to Ace’s lips, bright and sunny.
You’re mine.

The Pirate King of the North: Part 4
Main Themes: Villain Sanji, Alternate Universe, Zosan Ship
Warning: Long post ahead with One Piece spoilers. Contains strong language and explicit content.
Part 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17
Three days after the call, Sanji follows Zoro’s instructions to the book and waits for him at an island with a bustling town in the middle of the day. The blonde is well aware of the local Marine base in the area but he ignores this fact and turns up at the townsquare just as he promised, not wanting to disappoint his, hopefully, future fiance. Unsurprisingly, he is met by navy officers who tell him to come along quietly.
Law had refused to use The Polar Tang to contain their guest as he didn’t want to risk his submarine and crew to suffer any potential consequences as a result of the interrogation that they're planning. Zoro had to pull strings to borrow a room at the Marine base, stating that it’s for an official Warlord business. He and the doctor had been waiting for over half an hour overtime for the soldiers to return with Sanji. Zoro sends additional troops to investigate the delay. After another suspicious amount of time of having received no news, the two decide to investigate the matter themselves.
Zoro and Law make their way to the townsquare where the swordsman had instructed Sanji to be. Upon arrival, it was clear what had happened to the navy soldiers that he’d sent out. Deep red and severed body parts taint the white tiles throughout the block. A few had somehow made their way on top of trees and the shops’ window sills. Some float lifelessly in the fountain right in the middle–its sprinkling water had changed to a scarlet red. Liquid splatters grossly against the white marble sculptures that decorated the water feature.
Law grits his teeth, his knuckles turn white from gripping his sword tightly.
Zoro all but rolls his eyes. He hates the fact that he’s used to Sanji doing this sort of thing.
Zoro
What a waste.
They follow a trail. It’s not hard to find where Sanji had gone given how much blood there was, and Zoro had a sneaking suspicion that the blonde had purposely left his stained footprints to show where he’s going. He enjoys Zoro chasing him this way after all.
While walking, Law sends a message through his own den-den mushi to his crew, ordering them to check in on the citizens and make sure that everyone’s safe. Not long after, Bepo reports that the citizens are unharmed–extremely shaken but they’re untouched. The polar bear adds that a few witnesses say that it was only the Marines who tried to force the Pirate King into cuffs that had been torn apart. Some had apparently been allowed to flee.
Law looked to Zoro, as if expecting him to have a reasonable explanation as to why the Pirate King behaves the way he does. Cutting down local town Marines seems a bit too excessive in his opinion. The swordsman confesses that he's just as confused, and that over the years he'd just accepted that he's just mad because it's just the way he was born.
Zoro
All the more reason he deserves to die.
Zoro stops in his tracks, standing on the wooden pier of the docks. It looks like the rest of the bloody footprints lead right through to the very end. Looking at the ocean, he sees a distinct murky area of red on one spot. A head of blonde and white hair pokes out from the middle, the sun shining beautifully over it. Zoro felt–
Zoro shakes his head at the thought. 
Law follows Zoro's gaze, ending the call on his transponder snail when he sees who's in the water.
Law
Speak of the devil….
 
Zoro
OI!!!
The blonde turns to look at the source of sound.
Sanji
MELLORINE!!!
Sanji waves enthusiastically at the duo staring at him.
From afar, Zoro could tell that the man practically had heart eyes bulging out of his eye sockets.
Sanji takes a plunge into the water, swimming away from the murky area then reappears next to the wooden pier just under where Zoro was standing. His head pokes out gracefully, then gives the swordsman a warm smile.
Zoro takes a step back to distance himself, suddenly feeling like a girl whose skirt is being perverted on.
Zoro
Don’t give me that, idiot. Your outlash may have cost me some pull from the Marines.
Sanji
Oh? Has it occurred to you that that may have been my plan?
Zoro’s eye twitches, clearly infuriated at being toyed with. He pulls himself together internally and lets out a defeated sigh.
Zoro
Is this for not meeting up with you in person like I said I would? I got stuck with all the bureaucratic paper bullshit.
Sanji
I don’t know…
Sanji had a teasing tone behind his voice. He effortlessly pulls himself up to sit at the edge of the wooden planks, shakes his head and starts wringing his hair over his shoulder.
Sanji
Next time, don’t make promises you can’t keep.
Zoro lets out an offended huff.
Zoro
Next ti–? NO! There’s no next time! We're enemies. And what, is this your way of punishing me? To make me feel guilty? By murdering a bunch of Marines?
Sanji
Oh please, it was out of self-defense! They came onto me first….
Sanji calmly stands on his feet. Slowly, he begins to strip off his top, revealing his lean but muscular figure.
Zoro’s eye trails from Sanji’s scar across throat, down to the defined v-shape below his waistline. He recognises the cuts and burns from their battles, and some he guesses are from his own volition. When the blonde turns to fix his hair, Zoro eyes a small red tattoo, located below the nape of his neck. For some reason, he’s never noticed it on him before–a red circle with four triangles, arranged to look like the claws of a dragon. It has a cluster of messy scars over it, as if it'd been attempted to be removed by means of violent scratching. Like all else, he’s wondered what the story behind this is–
Zoro almost slaps himself to shake the thoughts out of his head. He makes an effort to look the blonde in the eye before he notices him staring.
Sanji gives Zoro a side glance before squeezing the damp clothing in his hands to dry it. He closes his eyes and his mouth curves into a cheeky smile. He gives his top one last flick before tossing it over his shoulder.
Sanji
I gave them a chance to apologise but some of them didn’t have any manners and charged in. Really, they were quite rude.
Zoro
You could have just knocked them out. Some of them were fresh blood. They’re probably just trying to prove they can do a good job to impress their seniors.
Sanji
By overdoing it. And now that fresh blood is all over my poor clothes. All because they tried to force me into those…heavy, rusty fuckin’ pieces of– 
Law clears his throat.
Zoro and Sanji look at him, annoyed at the interruption.
Law
If you’re done bickering like an old married couple….
Zoro’s eye visibly twitches, his brows furrowing angrily at Law's poor choice of words.
Sanji practically swoons, his hands slap his own reddened cheeks while the rest of his body squirm comically.
Sanji
OH, YOU–stop that! We’re not married yet, you bastard!
Zoro
WE’RE NOT GETTING MARRIED. PERIOD!!!
Law could practically feel the veins in his forehead pop.
They start the trek back to the Marine base, purposely taking the longer way through the shoreline to avoid panicked citizens after Sanji’s onslaught.
Sanji
Marimo-kun~!
Zoro ignores the man, and concentrates on walking quietly. He attempts to put his mind in a meditative state.
Sanji
Ma–ri–mo-kun~?
The shade under Zoro’s brows darkens. He focuses on his breathing–he inhales, holds it, then exhales. He repeats it several times more.
Sanji crumples his heavy damp clothing into a ball then throws it at the back of Zoro’s head, causing the other man to stumble.
Sanji
I SAID “MARIMO”, YOU ASS!!!
Zoro grabs the wet top and throws it hard onto Sanji’s face square on, knocking the man down on his butt.
Sanji
THAT HURT!
Zoro
DON’T THROW GROSS THINGS AT ME! WHAT DO YOU WANT?!
With a blink of an eye, Sanji’s demeanour changes. He bites his lip and looks up to Zoro with a large puppy eye.
Sanji
Why is he here? Isn’t this a date?
Zoro
Fuck off. I never said it is. We’ll tell you when we get to the base.
Sanji
Hmm…no, then I’m not going.
Sanji crosses his arms stubbornly. His legs do the same, planting himself firmly on the ground.
Law
Zoro-ya, can’t you just tie him up and drag his ass along? I just want this over and done with.
Zoro
You’ve seen what happens if you force him into things, idiot.
Sanji
Yeah, idiot.
Zoro
I’m not talking to you.
Sanji
Then do, otherwise I’m not coming along. You're taking me into a Marine base after all. I'd be at a disadvantage as soon as I step inside. You have to give me a good reason to go with you.
Zoro
You said you'd help me.
Sanji
You? Sure. I was hoping to gain your personal favour. Him? Ehh…. He's not exactly my type.
Sanji looks at Law, slowly dragging his eyes down his frame.
Sanji
Hmm…I guess he could be if he's willing to play.
Law nervously takes a step back, feeling hot and bothered.
Zoro sighs. He considers for a moment, trying to come up with a way to make sure that Sanji cooperates with them peacefully for as long as possible without sacrificing anyone to indulge in whatever sexual fantasies are in his head. After a time, he speaks firmly.
Zoro
Tra-guy, tell him everything you told me.
Law
Here? We’re doing this right here, right now?
Sanji
I'm glad you understand, Marimo.
Law
I… I don’t know.
Sanji
I don’t need the whole sob story, Trafalgar D. Water Law.
Law blinks in surprise that Sanji knows his name. Sure he had a bounty but he didn’t think it was anything noteworthy. He certainly wasn’t aware that the Pirate King would care enough to know about it. He opens his mouth as if to say something but gets interrupted.
Sanji
I have eyes and ears everywhere, love. What I don’t know is why the Surgeon of Death is looking for Doffy.
Zoro
Doffy? The same guy who gave you your new weapon?
Sanji
Aww! You remembered?! …Are you jealous?
Sanji gives Zoro a suggestive wink, taking the swordsman aback.
Zoro
Don't be ridiculous.
Sanji
If you like, I can call off my affairs with him and just make it exclusive with you….
Law
As much as I want to kill that monster, I don’t think I can right now. Not at my current strength.
Sanji snaps his gaze to Law, giving him a dangerous look.
Sanji
You’re right. You can’t.
Law
I’m just looking for my friend. It’s…it’s his brother, Donquixote Rosinante.
Sanji raises a brow.
Sanji
Corazon has been dead for years.
Law
Then you better check your sources, Mr. Prince-ya. Because I have letters from him from the last several months.
Sanji stands on his feet and approaches Law slowly.
Sanji
Show me.
Back at the Marine base, Sanji and Law escalated into a heated argument in the interrogation room. Sanji insists that if they truly want his insight into Donquixote Rosinante, the doctor should show all the letters that he claims to have.
Naturally, Law refused to show the blonde, stating that it’s all too personal.
Zoro knows he shouldn’t, but for once, he feels relieved that someone else is dealing with the mad king’s temper. He hides a smirk behind a bottle of sake, taking a swill.
Sanji
Don’t be an idiot. I don’t give a flying fuck what’s in them!
Law
Then there’s no reason for you to see a single one.
Sanji clasps both of his hands together, and gently sets them down the wooden table in front of him. With a deep voice, he speaks.
Sanji
Enlighten me then, how do you truly know it is him?
Law
If you must know, all his letters have…details that only he and I know.
Sanji firmly presses his fingers down the table, then speaks slowly but clearly.
Sanji
All the more reason that you could be in bigger danger than you think, doctor.
Law frowns.
Sanji
You're far too enamoured to think straight. How do you know it’s not just someone else messing with you? Hmm? Someone like Doffy?
Law crosses his arms then leans back against his chair, listening intently.
Sanji
Think about this… very… carefully.
Sanji shuffles in his pockets and fishes out a pack of cigarettes. When he opens the box, his eyes furrow in disappointment, seeing that all of his smokes are heavily damaged from water and blood. He throws the pack over his shoulder then snatches Zoro’s bottle of sake as the swordsman was about to take a drink.
Zoro
Oi!
Sanji takes three big gulps before slamming the bottle down on the table.
Sanji
Given how touchy you are about the idea of me reading them, I’m guessing you’ve become quite emotionally attached to the letters, haven’t you? Just consider, whoever wrote them knows an awful lot of details about you. What’s more, they know where to find you, and how to find you.
Zoro raises a brow at that. He notices that the doctor is starting to lose his composure slightly as a tiny bead of sweat falls on the side of his face.
Law
You assume it’s being sent to me.
Sanji
A trail, then? He’s leaving you clues and you’re more than happy to follow it.
Law
That’s…
Sanji takes another big drink, then explains his point further, waving Zoro’s bottle in front of him as he makes hand gestures to emphasize his speech.
Sanji
What if it’s a trap? If someone, say…I don’t know–like Doffy–is pretending to be Corazon, then you’d have been sold out for a fool.
Law slams his hand aggressively on the table, cracking its surface where his fist landed.
Law
You’re wrong!
Sanji stares at him unimpressed but doesn’t say anything, as if allowing him the chance to explain himself. He leans back against his chair.
Law
Look, I just know, okay? It’s him. I’m sure of it.
Sanji
You just know…?
Law
Yes.
Sanji
Then you’re hopeless.
As Zoro attempts to steal his sake back, the blonde slaps his hands away and takes several more swills from the bottle, as if telling the swordsman that he’s not done with his turn yet. He wipes his mouth with the back of his hand then returns his focus back to Law.
Sanji
And how is it that you just know?
Zoro
Tra-guy, he’s not going to stop until you show him.
Law
You’re on his side, Zoro-ya?
Zoro
Look, you don’t have to show him everything, just show him one–like the bit where you’re stuck. It was enough to convince me.
Law pinches the gap between his brows.
Law
What you’re basically telling me…is that I should trust him with this information? That I should trust this mass murdering fucker with something extremely important to me?
Sanji
I told you, I don’t give a shit what’s in it–
Law
That’s what worries me! Because I care–a lot! I….
Law’s ears visibly reddens in embarrassment. He rubs the back of his neck awkwardly, averting his gaze.
Law
He was… is… very important to me. The letter is from him. I’m sure of it. And if you don’t care about it then I’m not letting you get your hands on it.
There was a moment of silence. Sanji watches Law in his vulnerable state. After a while, the blonde takes another drink from the bottle and sets it in front of Zoro.
Zoro grabs the bottle enthusiastically. He raises it above his mouth and nothing but a single drop falls onto his tongue. His smile vanishes, and his shoulders droop sadly until his arms and face melt onto the table. He sets the bottle down, pushing it away from him.
Sanji
I apologise, doctor.
Zoro and Law both look at Sanji in surprise.
Sanji offers a warm smile to Law.
Sanji
I’m afraid I’m not so good at these things. I’ll help you however I can.
Zoro stares at him in disbelief, cocking his head on the side against the table, processing the genuinity behind Sanji’s tone. He detects no ill will or malice behind it. He tells himself he’s just a bloody good liar.
Sanji
However, I still need to see a letter–just one will do, like the swordsman said–so I can study it. I promise I’ll take good care of it. If it resembles Doffy’s writing in any way, I will tell you. If it’s not, I’ll see what I can deduct from it, given that you’re apparently…”stuck”.
Law
I…thank you, Mr. Prince-ya.
Sanji slightly bows his head at him in acknowledgement.
Law
However, there is one thing that still bugs me….
Sanji
Oh?
Law
Why the interest in Corazon? You seem very keen to find out if he’s really dead or not.
Sanji
Corazon was–is…Doffy’s brother after all. His death shook a number of undercover Marine agents, enough to blow their covers.
Zoro
How would you know that?
Sanji
Because it all happened under wraps, which I make it my business to know. Your precious World Government made sure to cover it up nice and snug to keep up appearances.
Meanwhile, everyone else who actually did the work started pointing fingers, accusing each other of who ratted out your mate, afraid that they’re next. Ultimately, they hunted each other down. Now, while I don’t give two shits about the Marines, this whole ordeal should not be taken lightly.
Sanji leans forward on his seat.
Sanji
If he is alive, then Doffy has lied to me, which violates the rules of our country’s alliance. I’ll need to look into this matter personally to keep this quiet. If you let me help you, this will be beneficial for the both of us, I assure you.
Law takes a moment to process everything that Sanji had laid out for him. Reluctantly, he nods. Thinking it takes a criminal to know one. He reminds himself that he just needs advice and nothing more. He leans forward and shuffles in his pockets. He pulls out a folded piece of paper but before he could stretch his arm to offer it to Sanji, the blonde raises his hands in front of him.
Sanji
Let me just wash up. I still have Marine blood on me and I don’t want to get them all over your letters.
Sanji stands, then walks to the door.
Zoro’s eyes follow him. His expression softens at the blonde’s thoughtfulness and unexpected change in character. It must just be the single sip of the sake that clouds his own thoughts. He makes it clear to himself that it’s just acting–no doubt to get on Law’s good side then at the last second stab him in the back.
Sanji
Marimo-kun, the door, please?
Zoro
Ah. Right.
Zoro unlocks the door, then hollers for a couple of Marines to take the Pirate King to the washroom, instructing them specifically to “be nice” if they value their lives. Hesitantly, they do as he says, even with the odd request, too scared to do anything out of hand especially after learning what had happened to their colleagues in the townsquare.
Law kicks back on his seat, placing his hands behind his head.
Law
He’s not what I expected.
Zoor closes the door behind him, and turns to the doctor, glaring at him.
Zoro
That may be the last thing in your head if you let your guard down. Remember what I told you earlier.
Law
His mind is his real weapon, not his claws. I know. But he–
Zoro
As soon as he charms you, he’ll make you do things you’ll regret. Luffy would kill me if he gets to you.
Law
You sound like you talk from experience….
Zoro
Don’t even go there. Have you forgotten that he’s just murdered a bunch of Marines not far from here?
Law
I…you’re right.
Zoro approaches Law, jabbing a finger on his chest.
Zoro
Don’t forget what I said.
Moments later, Sanji returns to the interrogation room, escorted by a couple of trembling Marines behind him. They bring him inside, then rush out the door, locking it behind them in a panicked state. The blonde looks and smells a lot cleaner this time, and his hair is damp again–presumably after having borrowed the navy’s shower room. Zoro and Law also can’t help but notice that he’s completely changed out of his blood-stained clothes, and is now sporting a Marine officer uniform worn with the coat buttons undone and no shirt underneath, keeping his front exposed.
Sanji saunters, twirls gracefully, then strikes a pose to show off his new outfit proudly. Zoro can’t help but let out an unexpected hearty laugh.
Zoro
That looks awful on you! You didn’t just pry it from the dead, did you?
Sanji
Goodness, no. They had spares. I admit, it’s a little loose, but you don’t have to be so mean.
Sanji flicks his hair, keeping his other hand on his hip. The small spray of water from his hair strands makes it look like sparkles in the air with the way the room’s light shone on it. He looks down at the swordsman, making the other man stop in his fit of laughter.
Sanji
Besides, I feel fantastic in it.
Hey, tattoo guy, let’s do this. 
Sanji is back on his seat. The look of confidence he usually wears on his face has dithered away. He looks dumbfoundedly at the piece of paper that Law had given him. He flips the paper to check its back, looks at the front again, then flips it once more.
Sanji
This is it?
Law nods. His face had gone red.
Sanji
It just says “I love you.”
Law pulls out a stack of the similarly sized papers of varying shades from his breast pocket and lays it down in the middle of the table.
Law
Now you’ve seen one, you’ve seen it all. But uh… you can’t touch these.
Sanji slaps his forehead with the palm of his hand.
Sanji
I don’t know what I expected. THEY’RE NOT EVEN SIGNED!
Law
It’s something he’d do, okay?! You wouldn’t understand.
Sanji
No, I don’t!!! This is ridiculous! Is this seriously it?!
Sanji stops abruptly. His eyes stare at the stack of papers, shifting left and right, as if suddenly deep in thought–and he’s thinking fast. He inspects the one closely in his hand, then holds it close to the stack on the table, comparing the two.
Sanji
These papers are all not from the same place.
Law
Why does the paper matter?
Sanji
Because, my dear, this means that you’re always in his thoughts–or whoever’s writing it anyway. They didn’t write this all in one go then went about scattering it. They took their time, and wrote down a new letter each time they thought of you with whatever they could get their hands on.
Law freezes. Whatever thoughts he has, he keeps it in his head but it’s noticeably making his hands and lips tremble. After a few quiet moments, Zoro breaks the silence to help him out.
Zoro
Tra-guy, show him the other thing.
Law
Right….
Law pulls out a long envelope the length of his arm. He carefully places it in front of Sanji
Law
This came with the letter that you’ve got in your hand.
Sanji tilts his head curiously. He carefully sets down the letter he’d been given earlier, then gestures towards the envelope.
Sanji
May I?
Law nods.
Sanji gently lifts the flap, then pulls out a delicate feather from the envelope.
Law
The letters always come with a clue where to go next. My crew and I have been travelling for several months now, mostly in the Grand Line. This is the latest, and the reason why we thought Doflamingo may know something, or has got Corazon locked up somewhere. But we haven’t been able to track him down for quite some time.
Sanji pinches the hollow shaft, spinning the feather to admire its features.
Sanji
Hmm…I don’t think it’s Doffy. Though this would make a nice feather for a hat.
Law
What makes you say that?
Sanji claps his hands excitedly.
Sanji
Ooh, I’m glad you asked! There’s this hat that Zoro’s dad wears everywhere. It’s got this gorgeous white feather that makes it stand out nicely with–
Zoro
Not about the hat, stupid! Why do you think it’s not Doflamingo?
Sanji
Rude. But that’s a simple question. Doffy’s coat is pink. This is more purple-pink. Hmm… I think this might be from a South Bird. They’ve got a big body and an even bigger personality. They’re native to Skypiea.
Zoro’s brows shoot up.
Law
Skypiea? The legendary island in the sky? Isn’t that just a tall tale? 
Zoro
I remember those birds. I can see why there’d be some confusion now.
Sanji
Have you been there, Marimo-kun?
Zoro smiles softly at the feather, then reaches out for it. Sanji obliges, handing it to him by the hollow shaft gently, their fingers brushing each other. The swordsman runs his hands through its soft barbs.
Zoro
Sure have, while travelling with my old captain.
Sanji watches Zoro admire the feather, taking notice of his brightened expression and hazel eye. He wonders what sort of tales he has in store. He doesn’t speak much of his old captain to him. Then again, he doesn’t really share a lot of things with him because why would he?
Only now did Sanji realise that he hasn’t really taken his time to admire the swordsman’s features up close. He makes a mental note to plan a sneaky peek under a different light–maybe outside during dawn or dusk when the colours of the sky would bring out his eye colour more.
Law
How do you know for certain that it’s from a South Bird, Mr. Prince-ya? I don’t recall you being an aviary expert.
Sanji
Oh, I’m not claiming to be a scientist in any way. But I have this thing for feather coats since Doffy likes to use it for sex.
Zoro drops the feather from his hands.

Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pairing: Non-idol!Seungmin x reader
Warnings: Afab/fem reader, smut, death. im keeping this vague for the mystery aspect- read at your own risk. Not proofread :)
WC: 4.9k
Happy Halloween yall 🎃 masterlist
Tumblr media
“Have you seen the news?” 
“I heard they found the body in the river.” 
“The cops are saying there's a serial killer on the loose.” 
“Another victim was found behind a dumpster all mangled.” 
“Each one is more violent and gory than the rest.”
Everywhere you turned someone was talking about the recent string of murders in your area. For weeks all anyone could talk about was this supposed ‘serial killer’, and after a fifth body was found last night the mania has only increased. Even here at work it was inescapable. The scariest part though, was that you recognized a few of the victims. Not very personally, but you had mingled with them and even flirted with one. And now they were dead. 
“Hey y/n?” 
You jumped as your thoughts were broken and your eyes tore away from your computer screen. Behind you leaning against the opening of your cubicle was your coworker and newly made friend Seungmin. 
“Seung, you scared me!” You scrunched your face at him, then flipped him off when he laughs. 
He brought his hands up and wiggled his fingers at you, “Scared I’m gonna get you like that killer? Ooooo better watch out!” 
You rolled your eyes, “You know, each victim so far has been a man so I think you’re the one who better watch out or you're gonna be next.” You teased him with a giggle.
Seungmin had started working for your company a few months ago, first as a temp then he was hired on as a full company employee. You were both fast friends since you both liked to poke fun. What had started as him teasing you about the Kuromi calendar on your cubicle wall turned into a wonderful friendship and dare you say- a flirtationship. 
“As if.” He scoffed. “I’m not stupid enough to get caught by someone like that.” 
You hummed, “Hm, could’a fooled me.” He scowled at you, causing you to laugh. 
“Well I was gonna invite you to a show tonight, but if you’re gonna be an ass then forget it.” 
“A show? Who’s playing?” You inquired, your interest now peaked. 
Seungmins lips curled into a sinister smirk, “No one important.. Just 3Racha.” 
“No way!” You shot out of your seat in excitement. The shit eating grin on his face told you he was serious. “Ahh Seung!” You launched yourself at him and wrapped your arms around his shoulders. You had told him many times how much you loved the group and would love to see them live.
“I don’t know why you’re getting so excited, I revoked my invitation, remember?” His tone was light but still sassy as he jested and hugged you back. 
“Nope! You put it out into the universe, you can’t take it back!” You squealed and hugged him tighter, then remembered you were still at work and had to act in a more professional manner. You released him quickly and took a step back, your face flush with embarrassment as you cleared your throat. “I mean, it sounds like a good time.” 
Seungmin chuckled at your cute change of attitude. “They’re playing at that new venue across town, the small one with the bar. S’ not much but I figured you’d wanna go.” He shrugged in nonchalance. “I can uh, pick you up if you want.” 
You nodded enthusiastically, a bright smile on your face. “That would be great!” 
“Awesome.” He rubbed the back of his neck as if he was suddenly feeling sheepish, a faint pink creeping up his ears. “It’s a date then.” 
Tumblr media
The rest of the work day went by so slowly, the hours passing by at a snail's pace making you want to pull your hair out. You weren’t just excited for the concert but to go out with Seungmin. On a date. A real date. So far you had only hung out as friends, usually with at least another person from your friend group so this was a brand new experience. And you were beyond nervous and excited. 
You had worked out the details together before you had gone home to change, deciding you would get there a few minutes early to get a drink or two before it started. After getting home you took a quick shower, then put on a pair of black ripped jeans that hugged your ass just right and a maroon colored corset crop top. Adding a red lip and a smokey eye to complete the look. You hoped Seungmin would like it, you really wanted to impress him tonight. 
At exactly 8:00 there was a knock at your door. You slipped on your sneakers and opened the door. Seungmin was leaning after your doorframe with his hands in his pockets and a grin on his face. He was wearing a black t-shirt and dark wash jeans and boots, looking both comfortable and stylish at the same time. And so so hot. 
His eyes raked over your form, making you mildly self conscious. “What are you looking at?” You said playfully to get his attention off your body. 
His eyes snapped to yours, then they rolled at you, “God forbid I appreciate the outfit you clearly put some effort into. You look great, by the way.. For a gremlin.” 
You smacked his arm making him laugh, then you lightly shoved him away so you could lock your door. “Says the troll.” 
He leads you down to his car and even opens the door for you, making you secretly swoon. The drive over to the venue was nice, he played songs from 3Rachas latest album getting you both pumped for the performance. 
The venue was small, more like a hole in the wall club with a stage in it, but it had a tiny outside area with a fire pit. Luckily it wasn’t that packed yet and the two of you were able to get to the bar pretty quickly. Seungmin paid for your drink no matter how much you had insisted since he had gotten your ticket. 
As Seungmin was talking to the bartender about what drinks you wanted you felt a body come up next to you and lean on the bar. “Hey there, gorgeous. Can I buy you a drink?” 
You looked over to see a decently good looking guy, giving you a flirty look. You shook your head with a polite smile, “No thank yo-” 
“Her boyfriend already bought her one.” Seungmins voice was a borderline growl from behind you. Your head swiveled around to see him glaring at the guy. “Get fucking lost.” 
“Seung..” You said quietly. 
The man put his hands up in defense, “My bad bro, didn’t know. Just trying to shoot my shot.” 
“Well shoot your shot on someone else.” Seungmin handed you your drink then led you away from the bar and towards the stage area. 
“What was that?” You asked in a hushed tone. “Why did you get so hostile?” 
“That guy is a fucking creep, he looked at you like you were a piece of meat.” He sneered, “You don’t need that shit.” He seemed to sense how his change in temperament made you nervous so he dialed it down. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to be so possessive. I just didn’t like his vibe, it was gross.” 
You placed a hand on his shoulder and leaned into him slightly, “I wasn’t expecting it, is all. And I definitely didn’t expect you to say my boyfriend bought me a drink.”
 He was lucky it was dark or you would have seen how flushed he became. “I uh -well I mean- uhh.” You had never seen him so tongue tied and it was both alarming and adorable at the same time. 
With a coo you reached up and pinched his cheek. “Aw Seung, it’s ok no need to get flustered, you can be my boyfriend if you want too. ” Seung swatted your hand away and scowled at you slightly. “No I’m serious, I do really like you and would love to have you as my boyfriend, Minnie.”
 He broke into a giddy grin. “I mean, since you're practically begging I guess I could be your boyfriend.” You rolled your eyes and reached up and gave his arm a swift pinch. “Ow! I see how it is, you weasel your way into my life then you abuse me? That’s just cruel.” Seungmin couldn’t help but break character at the end and let out a laugh, then pulled you into his arms. 
You hugged him in return. Just as you were about to lean up and kiss him the lights in the room dimmed and the stage lights turned on. You spun around quickly to see the group run on stage. You let out a squeal and grabbed Seungmins hand. This was going to be a night you would never forget! 
Tumblr media
It was a little over an hour into the show now. You were dancing and singing along to each song, the drink in your system making you feel extra good. Seung had been beside you bopping along and laughing at your joyful antics. 
“Hey, I’m gonna run to the bathroom real quick.” He leaned in and spoke in your ear. You nodded, giving him a thumbs up. “Do not go anywhere, stay right here please.” He added, his eyes giving you a serious stare. 
“I promise I’ll stay right here.” You kissed his cheek then looked back at the stage. He gave you a pleased smile and left you to your devices. 
It was about 15 minutes later that he returned to you. “Sorry, those lines are long. Did I miss anything good?” 
“Duh it’s all good!” You giggled, wrapping your arms around his neck as a slower beat started to play. “But you made it back for my favorite song, sooo I can’t be upset.” He placed his hands on your hips, pulling your body flush against him. Being this close you could see a slight sheen of sweat on his forehead, “are you alright, Min? You look a little.. Off.” 
He shook his head, dismissing your concerns. “Yeah I’m good, s’ just hot in here, there's a lot of people in here.” 
You nodded in understanding. “Well I hope you’re not too hot for a dance?” 
He smirked down at you, “For you? Never too hot.” 
He suddenly twirled you around, making you giggle then he pulled you back into him, his hand in yours. No one else around you was dancing like this, they were all jumping around or being crazy, and it made it feel extra romantic- that it was like the two of you were in your own little world. 
You both swayed together as you looked up at him taking note of all his handsome features. With a bated breath, giving him time to pull away if he wanted, you leaned up slowly and gave him a chaste kiss to his lips. 
With a deep flush to your face you gave him a shy smile. Before you could say anything he grabbed your face and pulled you into a deep kiss. You let out a gasp of surprise then melted into him, letting him run his tongue along your bottom lip. 
You put your hand on his chest as you tasted his mouth, the light lingering taste of his beer making this even sweeter. Now you were certain that tonight was special. You hadn’t had this much fun or been this enamored in a very long time. It was perfect. 
A loud blood curdling scream brought you out of your dreamlike state, making you quickly jump away from Seungmin. 
“THERE’S A BODY IN THE ALLEYWAY”
“HELP! HE’S DEAD OH MY GOD HE’S DEAD!” 
Someone screamed, causing a massive panic to spread over the crowd. Seungmin grabbed your hand before you could even react, yanking you towards the exit. “Time to go.” He said while maneuvering you both around the clusters of people.  
You could hear another person yell out, “SOMEONE CALL THE POLICE!” 
“What the fuck is going on?” You questioned as you went out the exit, your eyes were wild as they flickered to Seungmin in terror. 
“I don’t know, but we’re not sticking around to find out.” He answered, remaining steadfast on getting you both the fuck out of there. 
“Seung..” You clung to him as you entered the parking lot. You could faintly hear the sound of approaching sirens, as someone must have immediately called the police. “I’m scared.” You couldn’t hide the tremble in your voice, “What- what if it’s that serial killer? Oh my god, what if they were there with us?” 
“Y/n, I would never let anything happen to you. I will always protect you.” There was no amusement in his voice as he spoke to you, leading you to the car and opening your door. He leaned in and buckled your shaking form, then rested a hand on your face again making you look at him. “Hey, I’m serious. I will keep you safe. Do you trust me?”
With a shaky breath you nodded, “Yes, I trust you.” 
“Good. Now let me keep you safe by getting the fuck out of here.” 
He climbed into the driver's seat, starting the car and swiftly driving away. Seungmin offered to drive you home but you really did not want to go back there alone and his house was closer. He took you to his place, keeping an arm wrapped around you the whole time as he unlocked his door until it was closed and locked again. 
His house was small, and looking around it was very clean. Borderline too clean. As if it was barely even lived in. Odd, but maybe he just liked his place to be really tidy. 
Seungmin led you to the couch, sitting you down. “I’ll grab you some water, help you sober up a little bit.” 
You nodded and leaned back into the cushions. A minute later he returned with a glass for you. You accepted it with a quiet thank you, taking a much needed sip. It was then that you looked at the clock on the wall and noticed how late it had gotten. 
“Oh shit I didn’t realize it was already almost midnight. I should call an uber or something to take me home.” You took out your phone but it was lowered by Seungs hand. 
“You can stay here if you want. It’s already really late and after everything that happened I don’t think I’d trust a rando to take you home.” 
Thinking about it you came to the conclusion that he was right and you also did not want to spend your night alone. “Ok, only if you don’t mind.” 
“Of course I don’t mind. You’re my girlfriend now after all, you can stay whenever you want.” He smiled warmly then offered you his hand. “Come on, I’ll get you some pjs.” 
His room was a little messier, with his bed not neatly made and a few plants by the window. Seungmin opened his dresser and grabbed some sweats and a baggy shirt, handing them to you. You thanked him and without even thinking about you began stripping. Or maybe you thought about it a little bit, glancing at him when you pulled down your pants to see him gulp then awkwardly avert his eyes. 
After you were dressed in the pjs you threw yourself at his bed, then opened your arms as an invitation for him to join you. He threw his own sweats on and took off his shirt, giving you a quick view of his broad chest. 
Ever since you had met him you had thought Seungmin was cute- sexy even- to an extreme degree. But seeing him tonight revved that up to a hundred. The way he had gotten you out of danger and brought you to safety, how he had stayed calm and collected during the chaos.. He was like your knight in shining armor, and you wanted to thank him personally. 
Seungmin climbed in with a snicker after turning off the light, letting you wrap around him before he pulled the blankets over both your forms. After adjusting to have you resting upon his chest he let out a deep sigh of content. 
“Are you alright, Seung?” You whispered into the darkness after hearing his sigh. You let your hand rest atop his chest, running softly along his skin. 
“More than alright, babe.” He answered then kissed the top of your head. “What about you? That shit was pretty traumatic.” 
You nodded, “Yeah, m’ alright. Happy to be here with you.” You then poked him in the chest, “Don’t let it get to your head though!”
His chest rumbled from his deep chuckles at your antics, “Never.” The hand you had on him very slowly moved down to his stomach, tracing the light trail of hair and making his breath lighty hitch. “What are you up to, little devil?” 
“Nothin,” your answer was coy as you continued to lower your hand, “Just wanted to.. Thank you for keeping me safe tonight.” 
“Oh yeah?” The smirk on his lips was incredibly clear in his voice. One of his own hands came up to pet along the side of your thigh. “Thank me how?” 
Finally you made your way to the front of his sweats, feeling his bulge that was steadily growing under your touch. You kissed his neck tenderly as you palmed him, his whine and buck of his hips giving you the confirmation you needed that he wanted you to touch him just as much as you wanted to give it to him. 
“Nnngh, so that’s how. Alright sweetheart, you can thank me in any way you want.” He groaned slightly, the husk in his voice causing a flood in your own underwear. 
With tentative movements you pulled the band of his sweats down his thighs until his member was released. The man let out a slight hiss when your hand made contact with his now bare skin. From what you could tell by feeling alone he was big. Big enough that you couldn’t even fully wrap your fingers around him. You briefly wondered if that would even fit inside of you. 
“That’a girl. Go ahead and rub the tip fo’ me.” You did as he requested, your thumb running over the slit on his tip and collecting the precum that was beginning to leak out and using it as lubricant on his dick. “Fuck, that’s it baby.” 
Seungmins fingers traveled from your thigh to your own covered center, giving you a quick circle motion over the bottoms then diving his hand into them, finding your now drenched core. “Mm, Seung.” You whined when his fingers expertly found your clit. 
“Jesus christ you're so wet. What made you so sopping, honey? You like using your hand to get me off, hmm?” He had a bite to his voice that was both teasing and dominating that made you flood even further. As if he could feel it he commented, “ Fuck you do like it don’t you? Bet you like my own fingers buried in your sweet cunt too huh?” Then he shoved two long digits into you, making your hips buck into him and a wanton moan escaped you. 
With a rapid nod you clenched down on his fingers, “Uh huh, so good Seung.” 
“I know love, I know. But you know what would feel even better?” 
“Hmm?” 
“Let me put my cock in you instead of my fingers.”
 You clenched down on him again at the suggestion, “Yes please. Want it.” As soon as the words left your lips you were suddenly thrown onto your back with your head bouncing off his pillow, a gasp of surprise leaving your lips. The sheets were torn off of the both of you and your bottoms were yanked down and off your legs as well, until your lower half was completely bared to him. 
He climbed on top of you and crashed his mouth against yours, his teeth nipping at your bottom lip making you squeal from the small burst of pain. You could feel him lineup his member with your hole, his tip going to push into you slowly. 
Your back arched at the intrusion. You were right, he was big. So big that you could feel your walls squeezing the life out of him as he stretched you out. “Seuunnggmiiinn oh my gooooood.” You cried into his neck as he fully seated himself inside of you.
“Fuck babe, you’re so fucking tight, you might just squeeze my dick off if you don’t relax.” Seungmin groaned, the bliss clearly overtaking him as he tried not to move too much and let you adjust. After a few moments you started to get used to his size within you and began to relax a little. “There we go, sweet thing. Imma move now, alright?” 
“Mmhmm.” 
With your go ahead he slowly started thrusting into you. You could feel each drag of his thickness against your walls, the sensation making you throw your head back in pleasure, your eyes half open and watery. Holding himself up with one arm he used the other to rub harsh figure eights on your sensitive nub that resides between you.
“God your so fucking beautiful.” He moaned, “Can’t believe I have the most perfect woman in my bed and that you're all mine.” He picked up his thrusts, the sound of skin slapping together filling the room. “M’ never letting you go. Not now that I have you. Never.” 
His words should have been alarming and at any other time they would have made you question what he meant- but your brain was turning to mush due to the intense amount of pleasure he was giving you. You could barely remember your own name nevermind the nonsense he was spewing. 
You could feel the dam within you about to break, your high about to crash over you. “S-seungminnie, I’m gonna- gonna cum.” 
“Do it. Cum all over my cock, baby. Give it to me now.” 
With a scream you came, the band snapping and giving way to euphoria, his name a jumbled mess as you clung to him and shook. “Min- Seung- minnie oh my god, nnghhh.” 
“Mmmm, good girl, feels so fucking good. Gonna cum, gonna fill you up and make you mine. Gonna pump you full.” He practically growled and put his face into your neck, sucking harsh dark marks onto your skin as a show of ownership. There was a sudden hotness that shot inside of you, coating your insides with his white essence. It was a good thing you were on birth control or you were sure that you would have gotten pregnant. 
Seungmin trembled as he finished giving you his load, his arms threatening to give out as he lowered his body to rest atop you. The sweaty man laid gentle kisses on your now marred skin, the softness being a great comfort for you. 
After a few moments he rolled off of you, curling you up into his side. You were so exhausted that as soon as he had exited you you had begun to drift off into a deep slumber, nuzzling into him until darkness took you. 
Tumblr media
You were awoken by the sun shining through the windows the next morning. Blearily opening your eyes you looked around your surroundings, seeing you were still in Seungmins bed and you were still very naked. A heat rushed to your face when you remembered what you had done last night, a giddiness filling you. The man was beside you, snoring quietly as he kept sleeping. 
As much as you wanted to cuddle him and go back to sleep you could feel the remnants of your naughty activities coating your lower region. With a sigh you swung your legs over the edge, grabbing the fallen sweats and slipping them on. You noticed your phone on the nightstand and grabbed it on your way to the bathroom. You decided to go out into the hall bathroom as to not wake up Seungmin. 
While you were doing your business you opened your social media. As you were scrolling you came upon the news report for what happened at the venue last night. Curiosity got the better of you so you clicked on the link.
 Immediate shock filled you as you read the article. There was a picture of the victim from last night, and a deep chill rocked you when you saw that it was the man who offered to buy you a drink that had been murdered. According to the report his face was bashed in against a brick wall until his head had become mush. 
You were so engrossed and mortified by the article that when you left the bathroom you hadn’t noticed you opened the wrong door, and instead of going back into Seungmins room you found yourself in an entirely different room. 
A gasp of horror left you when you took in the contents of the new room. Along the walls were pictures of men- not just any men but all of the victims of the serial killer. Next to their face pictures were cut outs from news articles about their murders and graphic photographs of the crime. 
What the actual fuck is this? Why would he have all this?
Your eyes scanned the contents, seeing laid out maps of homes and locations. There was a deafening beating within your chest as your brain ran a million miles a second, trying to figure out just what you were seeing. With shaking legs you backed out of the dark room, not realizing you were no longer alone until your back met a sturdy chest. 
You spun around to find his hard stare, your own eyes wide with fright.
“You weren’t supposed to find this.” Seungmin spoke lowly, a sternness in his tone that sent shivers down your spine.
“S-seungmin, I-i don't understand, what is all of this?” You tried to back away from him but he grabbed you by your arms before you could, his fingers digging roughly into you making you wince. “Ow, Seungmin let me go.”
“I can’t. Don’t you see I can’t let you go? Not now when I have you. After everything I did for you, I can never let you go.”
Pure fright was the only thing that filled you as you came to realize exactly what he meant.
“Seungmin.. What did you do?” 
His face never changed as he yanked you to him forcefully, his nails threatening to leave bloody crescents from how hard he gripped you. You tried to swing your arms to get him off of you but he was too strong, pinning your arms down and shoving you vehemently down the hall until he reached another room you had never been. 
Seungmin swiftly opened the door then using his strength he shoved you into the room, your body falling to the hard floor. He closed it behind him quickly, his dark orbs trained on you. 
You were crying now, salty tears steadily streaming down your face. With a coo Seungmin crouched in front of you, reaching his hand out to wipe your tears. You shuffled back away from him, trying to create as much distance between you as possible. 
Seungmin sighed in frustration and stood up again. He began pacing and pulling at his hair, “I should have known you would have a bad reaction. I should have waited before bringing you here. But fuck I just couldn’t help myself. Stupid, I’m so fucking stupid.” 
“I- I don’t.. Seungmin what is going on?” You were practically begging for answers. 
“They had to go.” He said simply. “Each one of them was a threat to you- to us. I just knew if I let them live they would pursue you. They’d try to put their slimy disgusting hands on you, touch you as if they owned you. No, no I would- could never let that happen.” He crouched again, invading your space making you squeal and turn your head away. He grabbed your face and forcibly turned your head to face him. “You belong with me, not with them.” 
You tried to shake your head but his grip didn’t let you. “Seungmin.. This is insane. Yo-you can’t just kill someone because they talked to me.” 
A borderline evil smirk overtook his face, “But that’s the thing, I can. And I did. For you.” He leaned in closer so your noses were touching. Your whole body was shaking in complete fear. You couldn’t believe that the man you were falling for was a serial killer. That the playful, sassy man who danced with you and played smash bros could possibly be this twisted and lethal. 
His next words instilled terror in you that would stay with you for as long as you lived. 
“Everything I do is for you. But don’t worry, babe. Now that I have you here safe with me I don’t need to kill anyone else. Because no one is ever going to come near you again. It’ll be just you and I forever.” 
The deep pit within you told you exactly what he meant; you were never leaving here. He was going to keep you trapped in his web until your last breath.
