…SHERIFF!RAFE X FARMER’S!DAUGHTER!READER AU
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
⋆𐙚₊˚🍺⊹♡
SHERIFF!RAFE X FARMER’S!DAUGHTER!READER who spend a lottt of time in the back seat of his cop car. they have an age gap that would raise all kinds of alarm if the people of the small town they resided in ever found out. sheriff!rafe is beefy, his muscles bulging through every shirt he wears. farmer’s!daughter!reader is too busy raising hell all around town in hopes that someone calls the police station so rafe can handcuff her and get her act cleaned up. “you can’t just go actin’ a fool whenever you feel like screwin’ i mean it!” he’s pulling her underwear up her thighs as she lays face down against his leather seats, completely fucked out. “whatever you say, dad.” rafe is groaning at her words as he uncuffs her. “yeah? i oughta’ take you home right now then and let him know about all the trouble you been gettin’ into.”
SHERIFF!RAFE X FARMER’S!DAUGHTER!READER who go on their dates in the next town over so they don’t run the risk of being caught by any locals. farmer’s!daughter!reader who teases rafe all the time, calling him an ‘old man’ and saying he’s a perv for entertaining her antics. “there’s a motel not too far from here.. just ‘sayin.” there’s a hint of a smile playing on her lips, the older man in front of her looking unamused. “you’re suggesting that i take you to a motel and you’re callin’ me a perv? get outta here.” despite his faux disinterest, they end up checking into the said motel for the night, his stomach slapping against her clit as he fucks her into oblivion on the dingy mattress of the cheap room. sheriff!rafe who actually knows farmer’s!daughter!reader’s father very well, both of them going all the way back to their high school days.
SHERIFF!RAFE X FARMER’S!DAUGHTER!READER who can’t stand each other sometimes. rafe is scolding her, telling her that she shouldn’t be wearing those ‘godforsaken’ shorts of hers since it draws a lot of the wrong attention. “you’re just mad because jj maybank is wondering what color panties i have on..” she’s leaning into the window of his cop car, his jaw clenching as he eyed the scruffy looking blonde who stood not too far away, shot gunning hot beers with his friends. “mad at the ‘maybank kid? please, darlin’ he’s a joke.” she’s laughing at his words, getting close to his ear before whispering; “i’m glad you think so, because i’m about to go over there and tell him i’m not wearing any..” that sets rafe off and it isn’t long before he’s slamming jj down against the hood of his car and arresting him for underaged drinking..
SHERIFF!RAFE X FARMER’S!DAUGHTER!READER who are such polar opposites, even they don’t understand how they work together. sheriff!rafe has a rough exterior, seemingly cold, closed off and never smiles, whereas farmer’s!daughter!reader is dancing on tables in bars she shouldn’t even be at, and being a little minx to see how many free drinks she can get out of the regulars. so much so, that rafe started patrolling around town at night so he could stop her from doing something stupid. and of course, without fail, he’s getting a radio call saying there’s been a report of a quote, unquote ‘young woman resisting arrest and assaulting an officer.’ and rafe is arriving onto the scene almost immediately, cursing under his breath when he see’s her being held down by at least four of his men in uniform.
SHERIFF!RAFE X FARMER’S!DAUGHTER!READER who eventually have to get serious with one another, both of them knowing that what they have is anything but casual. sheriff!rafe who doesn’t know how to go about it, so he decides it’s best to just be blunt. “so uhm— what do ‘ya say to moving out of your pop’s and living with me instead?” farmer’s!daughter!reader is staring at him from across the table at their favorite diner. “what?” she’s frozen, holding her knife over her plate of fluffy pancakes. “are you serious?” rafe is nodding as he takes a cigarette out of his pocket, placing it between his lips. “yeah, but this rowdy act of yours needs to stop. m’not gonna have you actin’ reckless if i’m the one taking care of you.” he doesn’t have to tell her twice before she’s nodding, throwing her arms around the grumpy sheriff before pressing kisses to his cheek.

Highschool au brainrot with sukuna. Please hear me out-
╰┈ Not completely proofread. Sukuna x gender neutral reader<3 fluff! Let me know if you guys prefer small or big text for brainrots like this♡
Tumblr media
꒰ა High school jock Sukuna! who had been failing his tests and was now facing the very real threat of being benched if he didn’t bring his grades up. His usual cocky grin faltering slightly as he carried himself around school with a nervous scowl.
The name Ryomen Sukuna stared back at you from the slip of paper the teacher handed to you, their eyes filled with a sense of pity, knowing Sukuna was not the easiest to get along with. The note simply read: “Please, tutor him for the upcoming tests.”
High school jock Sukuna! who was absolutely terrifying to approach. He towered over most, his sheer size enough to make anyone think twice before stepping into his space. With a permanent furrow in his eyebrows, making it look like he was always on the edge of starting a fight, and a sharp voice with an even sharper tongue. Intimidating already, he became even more so around his team—loud, confident, untouchable. Not wanting to deal with that many eyes on you, you decided to wait until after practice, when the hallways had fallen silent, and you wouldn't have the weight of other people’s eyes on you… just his.
High school jock Sukuna! who had lit up in a way you hadn’t been expecting when you explained that your teachers had assigned him to you for tutoring. The edge of confusion in his eyes cleared almost instantly, replaced by something more like relief. He was quick to exchange numbers with you, even quicker to ask if you had time that Friday after practice.
High school jock Sukuna! with whom you surprisingly found yourself in the midst of a blossoming friendship. Yeah, he was rough around the edges, with his jagged personality, sharp tongue, and lack of patience for anything he didn’t find interesting. But when it was just the two of you, tucked into a corner of the library, it was almost like he softened a little. He listened carefully when you explained things to him, followed your instructions on homework, albeit begrudgingly, doodled on the corner of your notebooks, overhauled his backpack to share his snacks, and what you thought would be a nerve-wracking few hours every week turned into something you actually looked forward to.
High school jock Sukuna! who’s crushing so incredibly hard on you, but you’re completely oblivious to it. Perceiving it more as him just being friendly. </3
And really, it’s so painfully obvious he likes you—he doesn’t even bother hiding the way he stares when you’re explaining something, and there’s a certain warmth in his gaze that makes your heart flutter, but you brush it off. </3
(Really, it's a miracle his pupils haven’t turned into little heart shapes yet.)
He’s just glad he’s keeping his grades up with your help so he can continue to play in his games. You convince yourself as he flashes a fanged smile and shoots you a wink as you pass each other in the hallways.
Sukuna just doesn’t want to deal with the hassle of having another tutor assigned to him. He doesn’t want to go through the exhausting process of explaining what he finds difficult in his subjects over and over again to a stranger. Your mind rationalizes as he offers to carry your bag, not giving you any time to respond before he slung the heavy thing over his shoulder with a casual grin. His arm now wrapped around your shoulder. The warmth of his touch lingering as you both walked to the library for your usual study session
It’s just Sukuna trying his best to be friendly and convince you to stay and tutor him. That’s all it is. You're sure! But then… that doesn’t explain why his team jersey, with the bold, bright lettering spelling out his name, is currently neatly folded up in your locker, adorned with a messy little note in familiar handwriting that reads:
“Wear this for me at the game?” ♡
Your fingers hover over the fabric, the weight of it suddenly feeling a lot heavier than it should...໒꒱ ⠀

zoro x mihawk daughter! reader 👁️👁️
Tumblr media
⛥゚・。 nurse
synopsis: a mysterious man crash lands on your gloomy island, and you patch him up... unaware of his odd relationship with your father.
cw: part 1/3, fluffy fluff, comfort, zoro is a lovable idiot, reader's a bit soft spoken, reader is FIONE, i imagine she dresses like morticia addams but its not explicitly described, mihawk clocks zoro's tea a lil bit
a/n: what i would give to bandage this man up myself
Tumblr media
"Never thought I'd see the day..." you sighed, grabbing a vase of water off the end table.
The sound of clanking and pouring echoed throughout the room, slowly waking the swordsman up.
"A man on this island..."
Zoro fluttered his eyes open, the golden rays of morning light ushering him back to the land of the living.
'I'm... alive? ...But where am I?'
"Morning," you greeted, softly, a warm smile on your face as you approached the bed. "You scared me for a moment. With the rough shape you landed in, I thought you were dead for sure."
Suddenly, his eyes shot wide, memories from Sabaody all rushing back.
Pacifistas.
Sentomaru.
Kizaru.
The crew.
Now fully awake, he greeted the world with a deafening yell, you letting out an equally loud shriek of surprise.
And, in your fear, you dropped the entire vase and fell backward, too occupied with trying to back away from the screaming man.
Hearing the commotion, Zoro shut up, weakly turning to see its source.
You had managed to retreat into the shadows, hiding yourself from the intruder.
"Who are you?" he asked, sharply, eyes zeroed in on your silhouette. "Where am I? And why are you here?"
"I could ask you he same..." you replied, warily. "And don't scream like that again. You're not dying, I made sure of that."
Painfully, he swung his feet over the edge of the bed, letting out a few winces and curses as he attempted to stand up.
He was missing a familiar weight on his hip.
"What did you do with my swords?!" he barked.
"I'm keeping them hidden until I can ensure you're not a threat."
Brows furrowed deeply, Zoro grit his teeth, thoroughly pissed.
"I'm warning you..." he stood on shaky legs, attempting to step forward, only to fall on his knees.
Guilty, you let out a sigh, suddenly feeling sorry for his poor shape.
"Sir, please, get back in bed. You'll re-open your wounds," you sighed, imploringly, moving forward to help him up.
Annoyed, Zoro scanned the area, eyes landing on your figure as you emerged from the shadows, widening at the sight as your hips swayed side to side.
Long, (h/c) hair...
Plump lips...
Heavenly curves, made evident by your long, black dress...
Smooth brown skin...
Alluring, (e/c) eyes....
Goddamn.
'Curlybrow'd lose his mind...'
You were dripping in beauty and mystery.
Zoro, so mesmerized, didn't even realize that you'd already cruised your way over, and were now standing directly in front of him, helping him up.
"I found you laying in a crater in the woods, unconscious," you explained, pulling him back to the bed. "You looked two steps from death's door... so I brought you back here, and tried to fix you up the best I could."
It was almost funny.
You had little to no medical knowledge at all, so majority of the first few days was spent teaching yourself how to do it all.
With a smile, you sat him down, "I'm glad to see you're alright."
But Zoro didn't register a single word.
He couldn't help but allow his mind to drift to the way your lips moved, enunciating each syllable so smoothly.
Though, when he realized you'd stopped speaking, his eyes found yours, an embarrassed glow rising to his cheeks.
"I... uh... can you repeat that?" he replied, bluntly.
This was the first time he was talking to you, and he wasn't even paying attention.
It was easy to say you were a little irked.
"I'll get you your swords," you sighed, flatly, giving up on any hope of conversation as you turned around to exit the room.
Without giving him a chance to speak, you walked away, hair swishing across your back as you moved.
Zoro, on the other hand, still sat there, more flustered than he'd been in a long time.
He thought back to how close your body was to his, your breast slightly rubbing against his back as you helped him up.
Watching you strut out the room, his gaze drifted to your backside, internally cursing himself for being so pervy.
Something about you flipped a switch in him—be it your mystery or your unspoken grace—and he had never found himself so entranced and intrigued in all his life.
And all you did was talk to him.
'The hell's wrong with me?'
This was the type of behavior one expected from Sanji or Brook.
Not him.
Not the cool-headed swordsman.
Not the Roronoa Zoro.
Hand rising to his face, he roughly shook his head, snapping himself out of it.
"I gotta get the hell out of here..."
Tumblr media
"Father, please, I—"
"Not only did you bring an unknown man into our home while I was away..." Mihawk started, tone sharp as he cut you off.
You flinched, instantly piping down as you took a step back, hanging your head.
He hadn't taken such a tone with you since your teen years.
"But you nursed him back to health... and returned him his weapons before confirming that he was of no threat."
Hearing it laid out like that, you sounded stupid.
But in the moment, you swore that Zoro meant you no harm, your observation haki not sensing any malice or ill-intent even when he was yelling at you.
"He's not unknown to you, Father, you've met him before," you attempted to plead your case, albeit quietly. "And from what you've said about him, he's perfectly honorable. He wouldn't have hurt me."
"You didn't know that," he corrected, brows furrowed. "For all you knew, he could've slit your throat the moment you lost sight of him."
"That's a little extreme..."
"That's the world."
After returning Zoro's swords, you left to go make him something to eat, but returned to find that he had escaped.
Frantic, you searched the castle for hours, combing through every nook and cranny in an attempt to find the swordsman.
But, of course, it would be your luck that your father would find him upon arrival—somehow he had found his way through the woods and to the ruins where he attempted to fight off some of your monkey friends.
Safe to say, when your father finally arrived home, he was less than pleased.
Even still, you patched up the swordsman once again, unable to leave him in such a precarious state.
"Father, please try to understand. I was only trying to—"
You stopped in your tracks, both you and the warlord sensing a new presence.
And, like clockwork, the man of the hour weakly pushed open the door, heaving, as he seemed to be struggling to keep himself upright.
Worried, your brows furrowed, concerned for his health.
"What are you doing out of bed?" you asked, softly, "You're hurt... bad."
But Zoro pressed forward, using the sheaths of his swords as walking sticks as he approached your father.
"You shouldn't be walking in this condition... you can barely stan—"
Suddenly, he dropped to his knees, bowing his head before his arch rival, much to your surprise.
"Will you... train me as a swordsman?" Zoro asked, fervently, pressing his forehead into the stone floor.
He'd managed to take a look at the News Coo you left on the end table, discovering Luffy's message to reunite in two years.
Which meant that the whole crew would have to get significantly stronger if they wanted any hope of surviving in the New World.
Him included.
"You disappoint me," Mihawk stated, brows furrowed. "Stand up."
He turned away from the sight, annoyance dripping from his tone.
"I can't believe you would ask your enemy for instruction... Have you no shame?"
He rolled his eyes, swirling around his wine glass.
"Get out of here. This is pathetic," he scoffed. "A pity, perhaps, but I overestimated your worth."
'Father...'
You felt bad about his harsh words, not wanting him to kick a man while he was down.
But the swordsman didn't budge, remaining in his exact position without fault.
"I said stand up... you're making a fool of yourself."
"Please help me!" Zoro tried once again, not moving an inch.
"First of all, the baboons beat you... and even after that, you couldn't make it to sea," Mihawk shrugged, taking a sip of his wine. "I can't help you. It's hopeless."
"They didn't beat me."
The two of you froze for a moment, shocked.
'No way... did he really?'
"You're the only one left to take down... but, I'm just not good enough to win against you the way I am now. Anybody can see that."
"I don't follow," Mihawk stated. "Clearly, you still consider me your enemy, yet here you are bowing down, begging for my help."
Zoro lifted his head, his expression one only attributed to a man on a mission.
"What do you mean to do?"
The swordsman's glare sharpened, not a doubt in his mind.
"Kill you, of course."
With that, your father let out an amused laugh, a rare smile cracking on his lips.
"You admit you want to kill me, and you expect me to assist you in that?" he asked, knowingly. "You're strange. What a ridiculous request. Aren't you the least bit embarrassed?"
Though he was quick to reel it in, a new question popping into his mind.
"Perhaps... your priorities are different now, Roronoa?"
Zoro's breath hitched at the insinuation, slightly surprised by his perceptiveness.
"(y/n)..." you father turned to you by his side. "Tend to his injuries."
(y/n).
'So, that's her name...'
It was oddly fitting.
With a quiet nod, you stepped forward, silently heading toward the door.
"We start your training once you've recovered."
At that, Zoro's face lit up, gratefully.
It was finally time to get stronger.
Throughout the entire two years, he poured his blood, sweat, and tears into his training, working diligently to become the reliable swordsman Luffy knew him to be.
But, little did he know, those two years would bring him ever closer to you, as well, as you acted as his personal nurse and cheerleader on the sidelines.
You two would become inseparable, spending your days together as you watched him train, cooked him dinner, did his laundry.
Your presence and company became as constant as he air he breathed.
So, when the day finally came for him to depart, it was safe to say that both sides had a particularly hard time letting go...
To be continued.

Can I request a smut with hoshi… when you’re best friend with him and are going to a party and y’all dressed up and he asked to fix his hair … long short story he kisses you off guard and one thing leads to another and you have a long night of passionate sex and confession of your feelings ✨✨✨
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ahh this was so fun to make I hope you enjoy reading it anon <3
You and Hoshi had been best friends for as long as you could remember. You had known each other since childhood, and your friendship had always been strong.
Tonight, you were both getting ready to go to a party together. You had agreed to help him with his hair, since he was struggling to style it in a way that looked good. As you stood behind him, running your fingers through his hair and trying to get it just right, he suddenly turned around and looked at you.
"Is it really that bad?" he asked with a pout, a hint of a smile playing on his lips.
You chuckled and shook your head. "No, it's not that bad. You just need a little more work, that's all."
He smirked at you, his eyes sparkling mischievously. "Or maybe you just like touching my hair."
You blushed and swatted at him playfully. "Don't be ridiculous."
But deep down, you couldn't deny that you did enjoy running your fingers through his hair. There was something about the way it felt against your skin that was almost intoxicating. As you continued to style his hair, Hoshi's gaze never left your face. He watched you intently, his eyes following every movement of your hands. Finally, after what felt like an eternity, you finished styling his hair. You stepped back to admire your work, and Hoshi turned around to look in the mirror.
"Wow, you did an amazing job," he said, running a hand through his newly styled hair. "I look great."
You smiled, feeling a sense of pride in your ability to make him look so good. "I'm glad you like it."
He turned back to face you, his expression suddenly serious. "Hey, can I ask you something?"
You glanced at the clock on the wall and saw that you were, indeed, running late.
"Yeah, sure," you replied, gathering up your things and preparing to leave. "What's up?"
Hoshi took a deep breath, his gaze never leaving yours. "I just wanted to say... you look really beautiful tonight," he said, his voice low and sincere. You felt a flutter in your chest at his words, but you tried to play it cool. "Thanks, you don't look so bad yourself," you replied, trying to hide the way your heart was racing.
Hoshi took a step closer to you, his eyes searching yours. "No, I mean it," he said firmly. "You're absolutely stunning. I can't take my eyes off you."
You felt your breath catch in your throat as he moved closer, his body now only inches away from yours. His gaze was intense, his eyes filled with a mixture of desire and something else you couldn't quite place.
"I've always thought you were beautiful," he continued, his voice barely above a whisper. "But tonight, you're absolutely breathtaking."
You tried to pull yourself together, reminding yourself that you had a party to get to.
"Yeah, we should probably get going," you said, taking a step back and breaking the intense moment between you and Hoshi. "We don't want to be too late."
But as you turned to leave, Hoshi reached out and grabbed your wrist, pulling you back towards him. You gasped in surprise as Hoshi pulled you into his arms and pressed his lips against yours.
The kiss was unexpected, but not unwelcome. His lips were soft and warm against yours, and you found yourself melting into his embrace as he deepened the kiss. You could feel the passion behind it, the desire that had been building between you for who knows how long. As he pulled away, Hoshi looked at you with a mixture of surprise and regret on his face.
"I'm sorry," he said quickly, taking a step back and running a hand through his hair. "I shouldn't have done that. I don't know what came over me."
He was clearly embarrassed by his impulsive action, but there was a part of him that looked like he wanted to do it again. You stood there, feeling dazed and confused. Your heart was still racing from the kiss, and your mind was reeling from the unexpected turn of events.
You didn't know what to say, so you simply stood there, looking at Hoshi with a mixture of shock and longing in your eyes. He shifted uncomfortably under your gaze, his expression conflicted. "I... I shouldn't have done that," he repeated, his voice softer this time. "I don't want to ruin our friendship."
"It's okay," you said quietly, your voice barely above a whisper.
You took a step closer to him, your eyes locked on his. "I... I didn't mind," you admitted, your cheeks flushing with embarrassment. Hoshi's eyes widened in surprise at your words, and he looked at you with a mixture of hope and disbelief.
"You didn't?" he asked, his voice barely audible.
He took a step closer to you, closing the distance between you once again. His gaze was intense, searching your face for any signs of deception.
You shook your head, feeling your heart pounding in your chest. "No, I didn't," you repeated, your voice stronger this time. "In fact, I... I've wanted that for a long time."
Hoshi's eyes darkened at your confession, and he took another step closer, his body now mere inches away from yours.
"You have?" he breathed, his voice husky with desire.
You nodded, unable to find the words to express how you felt. Your heart was racing, your body thrumming with anticipation as Hoshi closed the distance between you. He reached out and cupped your face in his hands, his touch gentle but firm. "God, I've wanted you for so long," he murmured, his eyes roaming over your face hungrily.
Hoshi leaned in and captured your lips in another searing kiss, this one filled with more passion and urgency than the last. His lips moved against yours with a hunger that left you breathless, his tongue tangling with yours as he deepened the kiss. His hands roamed over your body, exploring every inch of you as if he was trying to memorize the feel of you. You wrapped your arms around his neck, pulling him closer as you lost yourself in the kiss.
His body was pressed against yours, his hard muscles flexing beneath your touch as he held you tight. You could feel the heat building between you, the desire and need growing with every passing moment. Hoshi broke the kiss, his lips trailing down your jawline and onto your neck. He nipped and sucked at your skin, leaving a trail of wet kisses in his wake.
"You have no idea how long I've wanted to do this," he murmured against your skin, his voice low and rough with desire. "How many times I've imagined it."
As you stumbled towards the bedroom, you couldn't help but let out a giggle as you both bumped into furniture and walls. Hoshi was laughing too, his arms still wrapped tightly around you as he guided you through the darkened house.
Finally, you reached the bedroom and he kicked the door shut behind him, pressing you up against it as he claimed your lips in another heated kiss. He pressed his body against yours, pinning you against the door as his kisses grew more desperate and needy. His hands roamed over your body, slipping under your clothes and caressing your skin.
"You're so damn beautiful," he whispered against your lips, his fingers tracing the curves of your body. "I can't get enough of you."
You moaned softly as his hands roamed over your body, his touch igniting a fire within you that threatened to consume you completely. He began to trail kisses down your neck, his lips leaving a trail of fire in their wake.
"I want to touch you everywhere," he murmured, his voice low and rough with desire. "I want to taste every inch of you."
He pushed your shirt up, his hands sliding beneath the fabric and cupping your breasts. He let out a low growl as he felt your skin beneath his hands, his fingers gently kneading and squeezing your flesh.
"God, you feel so good," he groaned, his lips continuing their journey down your body.
Hoshi's lips found their way to your ear, and he whispered, "I need to be inside you. Now."
His words sent a shiver down your spine, and you felt a wave of desire wash over you at the sheer need in his voice. Hoshi pulled back slightly, his eyes locked on yours as he waited for your answer.
"Please," he whispered, his voice hoarse with desire. "Please, let me."
You nodded, unable to find the words to speak as you felt your body trembling with need. Hoshi's eyes darkened with lust, and he captured your lips in a fierce kiss before scooping you up in his arms and carrying you over to the bed.
He laid you down gently, his body covering yours as he began to kiss and caress every inch of you. Hoshi quickly undressed you, his hands and lips never leaving your body as he stripped you down to your bare skin. He took a moment to admire your naked body, his eyes roaming over you hungrily as he traced the curves of your body with his fingertips.
"You're perfect," he murmured, his voice filled with awe and desire. "Absolutely perfect."
Hoshi paused for a moment, looking down at you with a mixture of concern and desire in his eyes.
"I'm sorry," he said, his voice soft and low. "If this is going too fast for you. I don't want to rush you."
He brushed a strand of hair away from your face, his touch gentle and tender.
"I've just been wanting this for so long," he admitted, his voice rough with emotion. "I've dreamed about it, fantasized about it... But I don't want to rush things and make you uncomfortable."
You reached up and cupped his face in your hands, looking into his eyes with a mixture of affection and desire.
"I'm not uncomfortable," you whispered, your voice filled with sincerity. "I want this just as much as you do. I've wanted you for a long time too."
Hoshi let out a shaky breath as he heard your words, his body tensing with anticipation.
"Where are the condoms?" he asked, his voice rough with need.
You pointed to the bedside table, your body already aching for his touch. Hoshi quickly reached over and opened the drawer, rummaging through it until he found what he was looking for. He held up a condom, his eyes never leaving yours as he tore it open with his teeth.
He rolled the condom onto himself, his body taut with desire as he prepared himself for you. He leaned down and captured your lips in a searing kiss, his tongue exploring your mouth as he positioned himself between your legs. He broke the kiss, his eyes burning with intensity as he looked down at you.
"Are you ready?" he whispered, his voice filled with restrained passion.
You nodded, your body arching up to meet his as you wrapped your legs around his waist.
"Yes," you breathed, your voice trembling with need. "Please, Hoshi. I need you."
Hoshi let out a low growl at your words, his body trembling with the effort it took to hold himself back. He slowly pushed into you, filling you inch by inch as he buried himself to the hilt.
"God, you feel amazing," he groaned, his body shaking with the effort to control himself.
He stayed still for a moment, his body tense as he tried to regain control. You could feel him inside you, stretching you in all the right ways, and it was almost too much to bear.
"Please move," you begged, your voice filled with desperation. "I need you to move."
Hoshi let out a low moan, his body responding to your plea. He began to move, slowly at first, pulling out almost all the way before thrusting back into you with a slow, deliberate motion.
"You're so tight," he groaned, his hands gripping your hips as he held you still. "So perfect."
With each thrust, he picked up the pace, his hips slamming into yours with increasing force. He buried his face in your neck, his hot breaths coming in ragged gasps as he lost himself in the sensation of being inside you.
"You're driving me crazy," he whispered, his voice hoarse with desire. "I can't get enough of you."
Hoshi grinned against your skin, clearly enjoying the sounds you were making.
"That's it," he growled, his hips snapping forward with a particularly rough thrust. "Let me hear you."
He began to angle his hips, searching for that perfect spot inside you that would drive you wild. When he found it, he let out a low groan of satisfaction as you cried out in pleasure.
"There it is," he whispered, his voice filled with satisfaction. "I knew I could find it."
He focused his attention on that spot, each thrust hitting it perfectly as he drove you closer and closer to the edge.
"I can feel you clenching around me," he panted, his voice ragged with need. "You're close, aren't you?"
You could only nod, your body writhing beneath him as you approached your peak. He could sense it too, and he picked up the pace even more, his thrusts becoming harder and faster as he pushed you closer and closer to your release. Hoshi's face was flushed with pleasure, his eyes locked on yours as he continued to thrust into you.
"I like you so much," he panted, his voice rough with emotion. "I've liked you for so long. I've wanted this for so long."
He leaned down and captured your lips in a messy, desperate kiss, his body pressing you into the mattress as he continued to pound into you.
"You're mine," he growled against your lips. "You're all mine. No one else can have you."
He pulled back from the kiss, his eyes burning with possessiveness as he looked down at you.
"Say it," he demanded, his voice low and commanding. "Say that you're mine."
"I'm yours," you gasped, your voice trembling with pleasure and emotion. "I've always been yours."
Hoshi's eyes darkened with satisfaction at your words, his grip on your hips tightening possessively.
"Good girl," he growled, his pace becoming even more frantic. "You belong to me. And I'll make sure everyone knows it."
Hoshi could feel his own release approaching, his body tensing with the effort to hold back.
"I'm close," he panted, his breath coming in ragged gasps. "I can't hold back much longer."
He buried his face in your neck again, his hips snapping forward with increasing urgency as he chased his release.
"Come with me," he whispered, his voice strained. "I want to feel you come around me."
You could feel yourself teetering on the edge, the tension coiling tighter and tighter within you with each of his thrusts.
"That's it," he urged, his voice hoarse with need. "Let go for me. I want to feel you come undone."
Hoshi let out a low groan as he came, his body shuddering against yours as he emptied himself into the condom.
You followed closely behind, your own orgasm crashing over you in a wave of pleasure that left you shaking and breathless. Hoshi collapsed on top of you, his body still trembling from the force of his release. He nuzzled his face into the crook of your neck, pressing soft kisses to your skin as he came down from his high.
"That was incredible," he murmured, his voice still rough with pleasure.
Hoshi lay there for a few moments, his mind replaying the events of the past few minutes. He had finally confessed his feelings for you, and in the heat of the moment, it had led to this - the two of you entwined together in blissful afterglow. He couldn't believe how lucky he was to have you in his arms, to have finally been able to express his love for you without any more barriers between you.
As he held you close, he couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction and contentment wash over him. He had been harboring these feelings for you for so long, and now that they were out in the open, it felt like a weight had been lifted off his shoulders. He pressed a gentle kiss to your forehead, his heart full of love and affection for you.
"I'm never letting you go," he whispered, his voice filled with promise.

FALLING OUT OF FRAME | Part 9.5
pairing: you x drew starkey
happy christmas eve to those celebrating!
Tumblr media
The Next Weekend:
The weekend arrived faster than you expected. Drew had been tight-lipped about the details, but his excitement was evident in every text and call leading up to the trip. You had packed the night before – just a small bag, something simple for a couple of days away from the city. You weren’t sure what to expect, but something about Drew his excitement, the way he’d planned everything, gave her a sense of peace.
Your phone buzzed on the nightstand, pulling you from your thoughts. It was a text from Drew.
Drew: I’m outside, whenever you’re ready.
Your heart gave a little jolt. You quickly typed back:
You: I’ll be right down.
You quickly dressed in a cozy sweater, jeans, and a pair of uggs, before grabbing your bag and heading downstairs. When you stepped outside, you saw Drew’s car parked.
He kissed your forehead the moment he saw you, the simple gesture making you feel both giddy and calm at the same time. "Hey," he said, his voice warm, his eyes lighting up the moment they locked onto yours. "Ready for the weekend?"
"I’m ready," you said, your smile mirroring his.
He opened the car door for you, and as you climbed in, he followed suit and slid into the driver’s seat. The drive was peaceful, the city slowly slipping away as you headed into the mountains, the scenery becoming more and more picturesque as we went.
When we reached their destination, it was a charming cabin nestled on the edge of a wooded area. The air was crisp and fresh, the kind of cold that bit at your cheeks but felt invigorating. Drew parked the car and got out, walking around to open your door.
You stepped out, taking in the beauty of the place. The cabin was cozy, with a large stone fireplace and windows that overlooked a vast stretch of trees and distant mountains. It felt like the world was miles away from the life they had back in the city.
"This place is amazing," you said, full of wonder.
Drew smiled, his hand brushing against yours as he led you inside. "I’m glad you like it. I thought it might be the perfect place for us to… reconnect."
You spent the afternoon exploring the area around the cabin, walking along trails that led you deeper into the woods, surrounded by the beauty of the snow-capped peaks. Drew was more present than he had ever been. He listened to your stories, laughed at your jokes, and simply enjoyed your company. There was no rushing, no pressure—just the two of you, rediscovering each other.
At one point, we found a quiet spot by a small stream. The water flowed gently, its rhythmic sound adding a peaceful soundtrack to our conversation. Drew reached out and tucked a strand of hair behind your ear, his fingers brushing lightly against your skin. The touch was so tender, it made your heart skip a beat.
You turned your head slightly, locking eyes with him. There was a warmth in Drew’s gaze that made you feel safe.
Without a word, Drew leaned in slowly, his breath warm against your skin, his lips brushing yours before deepening into a soft, lingering kiss. When we pulled away, our foreheads rested against each other, breaths mingling in the cool air.
"I’m sorry for everything that happened before," Drew whispered, his voice thick with emotion. "I’ve learned so much. I’ll show you, Y/N. I’ll show you every day how much you mean to me."
Your heart swelled at his words, your fingers tracing the outline of his jaw. "I believe you," you whispered back, before giving him another quick kiss, this time playful, a soft peck that lingered on his lips for just a second longer than necessary.
You lingered by the stream, the quiet rush of water filling the silence between us. The chill of the evening began to seep into your jackets, urging you to return. As you stepped back into the cabin, the warmth wrapped around you like a familiar embrace, the crackling fire and scent of pine creating a sharp contrast to the crisp, cold air outside.
The crackling fire filled the cozy cabin with a comforting warmth as you leaned back against the couch, a soft blanket draped over your lap. The smell of pine and the distant rustle of the forest outside made the world feel miles away. Drew, seated next to you, stretched his arm along the back of the couch, his fingers lightly brushing your shoulder.
“You know,” he said with a mischievous grin, breaking the comfortable silence, “I had this whole grand romantic gesture planned, but… I think I’m going to go with Plan B.”
You raised an eyebrow, intrigued. “Plan B? Should I be concerned?”
He chuckled and stood, holding out a hand to you. “Not at all. Trust me.”
Curiosity sparked, you took his hand, letting him lead you to the center of the room. He reached into his pocket, pulling out his phone, and after a few swipes, music began to play. It was a soft, playful melody—something you recognized instantly: a song from a cheesy rom-com you’d once watched together.
Your jaw dropped. “No way. This is Plan B?”
Drew smirked, bowing dramatically. “May I have this dance, m’lady?”
You couldn’t help but laugh as he straightened up, extending his hand toward you. “Drew, you’re ridiculous,” you said, but you slipped your hand into his anyway.
He pulled you close, wrapping one arm around your waist as he began to sway—horribly off-beat, intentionally so. “Ridiculous? I prefer charmingly spontaneous,” he teased, twirling you with an exaggerated flourish that nearly made you trip.
“Charming? Debatable,” you shot back, grinning as you steadied yourself. “Spontaneous? Definitely.”
As the song played on, Drew started humming along, intentionally missing every high note and mixing up the lyrics in the most absurd way possible. You couldn’t stop laughing, your cheeks aching from the grin plastered on your face.
“You’re a terrible singer,” you managed between giggles.
He grinned, spinning you again. “And yet, here you are, dancing with me anyway.”
The song slowed, and so did the two of you, the laughter fading into a quiet, tender moment as you both swayed to the music.
Later that night, as Drew walked you to your bedroom in the cabin, he lingered in the doorway. “Goodnight, Y/N,” he said, his voice low and warm.
“Goodnight,” you replied, hesitating for a moment before adding, “Drew?”
“Yeah?” He turned back, hopeful.
You took a deep breath, your hand gripping the doorframe. “Thank you. For being patient. For making me laugh. For tonight.”
His smile was soft, genuine. “Anytime,” he said simply, before heading to his own room.
As you closed the door behind you, a small, hopeful smile spread across your lips. For the first time in a long time, you felt like maybe—just maybe—you were moving toward something real.
You tossed and turned under the covers, staring at the ceiling as moonlight poured through the window. The cabin was quiet, save for the faint creaks of wood settling in the cold night air, but your mind was anything but calm.
With a sigh, you sat up, hugging the blanket around your shoulders. Your chest felt heavy, like something was missing. And you knew exactly what it was.
You hesitated for a moment before slipping out of bed and padding quietly down the hall to Drew’s room. The door was slightly ajar, and the soft sound of his even breathing greeted you as you pushed it open.
Drew was lying on his side, the blanket pulled halfway up his chest, his face peaceful in the moonlight. For a moment, you just stood there, watching him. It was a rare thing, seeing him so calm, so unguarded.
“Y/N?” His voice was groggy, barely above a whisper, as his eyes blinked open and focused on you. “Is everything okay?”
You shifted awkwardly, clutching the blanket around you. “Yeah, I just…” You hesitated, feeling vulnerable but pushing forward. “I couldn’t sleep. I—” You took a breath. “I missed you.”
Drew sat up slightly, his brow furrowing as if trying to make sense of your words through the haze of sleep. Then, a soft, knowing smile spread across his face. “Come here,” he murmured, lifting the edge of his blanket in invitation.
You didn’t hesitate this time, crossing the room and climbing into bed beside him. The warmth of his body enveloped you as he pulled the blanket over both of you. His arm wrapped around your waist, drawing you close, and you rested your head on his chest, the steady rhythm of his heartbeat grounding you.
“Better?” he asked softly, his lips brushing the top of your head.
“Yeah,” you whispered, your voice muffled against him. “Much better.”
He chuckled lightly, his hand rubbing soothing circles on your back. “You don’t have to miss me, you know. I’m right here.”
You smiled against his chest, feeling the tension in your body slowly melt away. “I know,” you murmured. “I just… needed this.”
Drew pressed a kiss to your hair, his embrace tightening slightly. “Me too,” he admitted quietly.
In the stillness of the night, wrapped in Drew’s arms, you felt the weight of your doubts begin to lift. For the first time in a long time, you let yourself believe that maybe, just maybe, you could start to heal.
And as sleep finally claimed you, the last thing you heard was Drew’s soft, whispered promise: “I’ve got you, Y/N. Always.”
The next morning, you woke up to sunlight streaming through the cabin’s large windows. The world outside was blanketed in a soft layer of snow, and the air felt fresh and pure. You turned over to find Drew still asleep beside you, his features soft and relaxed in the quiet of the morning.
You felt at peace. No past mistakes, no regrets—just the present, and the possibility of something beautiful.
Drew stirred, his eyes fluttering open, and when he saw you, a slow smile spread across his face. "Morning," he said, his voice husky from sleep.
"Good morning," you replied, your heart warming at the sight of him. You reached out and gently traced his jawline, your fingers grazing over the familiar stubble. "I don’t think I’ve ever woken up feeling this… content."
Drew pulled you closer, his arms wrapping around you as he kissed your forehead. "Let’s  make sure it stays that way," he whispered.
You closed your eyes, holding onto the feeling of his arms around you, the comfort of knowing that, no matter what, we were taking it one step at a time. Together.
Later that day, after a quiet breakfast—this time cooked by you instead of Drew—you packed your things and prepared to head back to the city. The weekend had been nothing short of transformative, filled with moments of laughter, vulnerability, and reconnection.
The drive back was a peaceful one, the hum of the car filling the space between them. Drew had one hand resting on the steering wheel, his other hand reaching across the console to hold yours. His thumb traced lazy circles against your skin.
You glanced at him, his fingers intertwined with yours, grounding you in a calm you hadn’t felt in ages. It amazed you how something as simple as holding his hand could make you feel so safe, so grounded.
“You okay?” Drew asked softly, his eyes briefly flicking toward her before returning to the road.
"You smiled, squeezing his hand. "Just thinking."
“About what?” he asked, his tone curious but gentle.
You hesitated for a moment, then said, “About how nice this weekend was. About how much I needed it.”
Drew smiled, his thumb brushing over your knuckles. “Me too,” he admitted. “I didn’t realize how much I missed us until… well, until this.”
You looked back out the window, your heart swelling at his words. You didn’t want to get your hopes up when we first planned this weekend, but now, as we drove toward my apartment, you realized how much you wanted to keep building on what we’d started to rebuild.
They pulled up to the curb in front of your building, the lights of the city casting a soft glow across the interior of the car. Drew turned off the engine, his hand resting on the keys for a moment before he looked over at you.
The quiet hum of the city surrounded them, but in the small space of the car, it felt like the world had shrunk down to just the two of us.
“I had a great time this weekend,” Drew said, his voice low but rich with emotion. His eyes met hers, and for a moment, it was as though he was looking straight into her soul.
You felt your breath catch in your throat. There was something in his voice—an honesty, a vulnerability—that made your heart ache in the best possible way. You opened your mouth to reply, but no words came. All you could do was nod, your smile soft and full of unspoken emotion.
Drew stepped out of the car and came around to your side before you even had a chance to move. He opened her door, his hand lightly brushing against yours as he helped you out. The warmth of his touch lingered, and as we walked toward my building, the air between us felt charged, thick with something unspoken.
We stopped in front of the elevator, the soft ding of its arrival breaking the silence. Drew set your bag down and turned to you, his expression unreadable but his eyes filled with something unmistakable.
“Y/N,” he said, his voice barely above a whisper. “Before you go, there’s something I need to say.”
You turned to face him fully, her heart pounding. “What is it?”
He hesitated for a moment, as though gathering his courage. Then, he reached out, his hand gently cupping your cheek. His touch was warm and steady, grounding you even as your heart raced.
“I love you,” he said, his voice raw, his words trembling with sincerity. “I’ve loved you for a long time. And this weekend… it just reminded me how much. You don’t have to say it back, and I don’t want to rush you. But I needed you to know.”
Your breath hitched, tears welling in your eyes at the sheer emotion in his voice. You saw it all in his face—the longing, the hope, the vulnerability. He wasn’t just saying it; he was offering it to you, baring his soul in a way that left her utterly speechless.
Your hand moved instinctively to cover his, holding it against your cheek as your lips curved into a trembling smile. “Drew,” you whispered, your voice breaking slightly. “I…”
But before you could finish, he leaned in, his lips capturing yours in a kiss that was as tender as it was passionate. His touch was electrifying, his fingers pressing into your hips as though anchoring you to him.
When you finally pulled apart, “I mean it,” he murmured, his voice husky and low. “I love you, Y/N. And I’m here. For however long it takes, I’m here.”
Tears spilled over your cheeks, but you didn’t care. You smiled through them, your heart so full it felt like it might burst. “I’m getting there. I promise.”  you whispered, your voice thick with emotion.
Drew smiled, his thumb brushing away a stray tear from your cheek. “That’s all I need to hear.”
And then, without another word, you leaned in. The kiss was everything—passionate, deep, full of everything we hadn’t been able to say. It was slow at first, hesitant, but then it grew more urgent, more hungry. Drew’s hands moved to your waist, pulling you closer as his lips moved against yours with an intensity that left you breathless. His fingers slid lower, cupping your ass and pulling you flush against him, the heat between us growing with every second. The sensation of his hands on you made your heart race, every inch of your body responding to him.
You moaned softly into the kiss as our tongues met, the chemistry between us undeniable. Drew's grip tightened around your waist. His touch sent sparks through your skin, and you felt a longing that had been buried for too long.
We pulled apart, breathless, our foreheads resting against each other as we caught our breath. You looked up at him, your chest heaving. Your voice was a soft whisper, barely audible in the cool night air.
You hesitated for only a moment before you said, voice soft but steady, “Do you want to come up?”
For a split second, Drew’s eyes darkened with longing, but then he shook his head gently. “Not yet,” he said, his hand moving to cup your face again. “I don’t want to rush this. Don’t want to rush you. When it happens, I want it to be because you’re absolutely ready.”
Your heart swelled at his words, at the patience and respect in his tone. You nodded, your hand resting over his. “You really are incredible, you know that?” You said with a soft smile.
He chuckled softly, his lips pressing a lingering kiss to your forehead. “You make it easy.”
With that, he stepped back, his hands falling reluctantly to his sides as the elevator doors opened behind you. You stepped inside, her heart still pounding as she turned to face him.
As the elevator doors slid shut, cutting off your view of Drew, something shifted within you. The thought of leaving him standing there, waiting patiently once again, made your heart ache in a way you couldn’t ignore. You pressed the button to stop the elevator, and the doors reopened with a soft chime.
Drew was still there, exactly where you’d left him, his hands in his pockets, looking slightly surprised as the doors revealed you once more. For a moment, neither of you spoke. The city’s sounds hummed softly in the background, but all you could hear was the pounding of your heart.
“Y/N?” he asked, taking a cautious step toward you. “Did you forget something?”
You stepped out of the elevator, closing the distance between you. “Yeah,” you said softly, your voice trembling with emotion. “I forgot that I don’t want to keep waiting. I’m tired of holding back when I know how I feel.”
Drew’s eyes widened slightly, his lips parting as though he wanted to speak, but you didn’t give him the chance. Your hand reached up, cupping his cheek, and you leaned in, capturing his lips in a kiss that was everything—the culmination of everything you’d been holding inside. It wasn’t hesitant or tentative; it was bold and certain, filled with the love you’d been too scared to fully admit until now.
He responded immediately, his arms wrapping around you, pulling you close as though he couldn’t bear to let you go. The kiss deepened, a quiet hum of relief and passion passing between you as the world around you seemed to fade away. There was no past, no future—just this moment.
When you finally broke apart, both of you breathless, you rested your forehead against his. His hands remained on your waist, grounding you as you tried to gather your thoughts.
“I love you, Drew,” you said, the words spilling out with a confidence you hadn’t expected. “I’ve always loved you. I never stopped, even after everything that had happened. I was just… afraid. But I’m done running.”
Drew’s expression softened, his thumb brushing tenderly against your cheek. “You have no idea how long I’ve been waiting to hear that,” he murmured, his voice thick with emotion. “And I promise, Y/N, I’ll never give you a reason to run again.”
Tears pricked at your eyes, but they were tears of joy, not sadness. You nodded, your hand covering his where it rested on your face. “I believe you,” you whispered.
He smiled—a real, unguarded smile that made your chest ache in the best way. “So,” he said, his tone lightening just a fraction as he held out his hand, “what do you say we go upstairs and start building that future together?”
You glanced at his hand, then back at his face, your heart swelling with a mixture of love and hope. Taking his hand, you intertwined your fingers with his. “I’d like that.”
This time, when the two of you stepped into the elevator, there was no hesitation, no second-guessing. The silence between you was comfortable, filled with the unspoken promise of a fresh start.
As the elevator ascended, Drew squeezed your hand, his gaze never leaving yours. And when the doors opened to your floor, the two of you walked out together, side by side, ready to face whatever came next.
Because this time, you weren’t just stepping into the future—you were doing it together.

Switcheroo
Jin x MC
Sypnosis: Due to an anomaly accident, Jin and the Honor Student switched bodies! how would their whole day go with each other's body?
(MC/Reader will be called Honor Student here)
||•||
"Captain? Are you awake yet?"
Tohma knocked on the door of his captain, a firm but not too loud knock as he knows how it irritates Jin when someone is making too much noise in his presence
and due to the accident yesterday, an anomaly was acting out where Jin and the honor student happened to be passing by and got both dragged into, both are lightly injured yet still needing some medical assistance from a nearby "medical" dorm
the captain of the Mortenkranken hesitated to treat Jin even if he was offered tons of paycheck but as soon as he heard that the Honor Student needed treatment he practically jumped at it saying something how he's the most befitting to do their treatment.
seriously that narcissistic self important doctor should be put in his place for once
"Good morning Tohma-kun..." a soft deep voice cut Tohma off his thoughts, Jin opens his door and yawns at the sight of him
"Oh? it's unusual for you to greet me, did something good happen today?" Tohma smirked, he's going to use this gesture later to tease his captain to no end
"Huh? why would something good need to happen for a greeting? anyways do you need something?" droopy half lidded eyes looked back at him, giving off the impression of a vulnerable and defenseless handsome man who just woke up
a man who is the total opposite of Jin Kamurai
"You are acting quite strange Captain, are you perhaps sick?" Tohma brought his hand to Jin's forehead before putting his forehead against it
"T-Tohma-kun!?" Jin jumped back at his gesture, face completely flushed and embrassed before letting what he said sink in and finally the confusion stir
"Wait... captain?"
•||•
Meanwhile, the Honor student of the Clementia dorm was seen striding towards the Frostenheim, with a frown that seemed permanently pasted on their face. Their blazer wrinkled as if they slept on it, some buttons of their shirt and tie almost undone
walking fast as you can might not have been a good idea after all as they bump to the captain of Sinostra, Hoshibami Taiga
"Huh? who the fuck're you?" Taiga scowled down at the person he bumped to
now, the normal Honor student would've apologized immediately whether they are in a bad mood or not and it doesn't even matter if it is Taiga, they'll apologize no matter who it is they are too kind for their own good. it'd be a bonus if Taiga decided to pull them somewhere and include them in his hijinks
but instead they acted completely out of character
"You're in the way, move." They scowl at him trying to walk past him, but instead stopped as he Taiga gripped their arm pulled them closer to his face
"Ha!? who do you think-- oh its you little kitty!" Taiga lightened up, finally recognizing their face up close
anyone would expect the honor student (?) would be embarrassed by his words but the anger deepens in their face instead
"call me that again and i swear I'll-"
"Jin-san!" a deep hearthy voice calls out interrupting the Honor student (?) from digging their grave by talking like that to Taiga
"Haah..... I'm glad I've found you, um I'm sorry Taiga-san but I'll steal the Honor Student from now!" Jin (?) apologizes to Taiga before hurriedly grabbing the Honor Student (?) and walking off together towards Frostenheim leaving the red haired man stunned with a baffled face
"...did that bastard just say sorry to me?"
||•||
"this feels so weird to look at" Kaito mumbled watching the two
"It is... very strange indeed" Luca agrees crossing his arm watching the same scene as Kaito
"I cannot agree more" Tohma added with a smug smile amused by what he is watching
Jin Kamurai, the cold king of Frostenheim is with a kind expression pouring tea for the Honor Student who is the opposite; having a neverending scowl plastered on their face whilst laying down on the sofa one will normally find Jin laying in
"Jin-san, I'm done with the documents as well I'm going to class no-"
"Good, now go tell the chef i want meat for today, don't disturb me until its lunch time I'm taking a nap." The Honor student or Jin in their body cut them off before turning his back and sinking in further to the sofa
"B-but...!"
"And also, don't do anything weird with my body, if i hear you go running around doing shit that would get people talking you'll pay for it" He threathens them, striking with a glare
"But what about my classes Jin-san? i also have gym today...." a moment of silence before he grumbles in their voice and propped him themself up
"....tch, The two of you lead the way" Jin walked out of the door, followed by Luca and Kaito sharing glances at each other before striding off after him
"Ah, remember to act like the Honor student Jin-sama if you don't want for people to be figure out what's going on and spread rumors about y-"
Jin slammed the door shut cutting off Tohma, who lets out an amused chuckle
"My, My, the honor student is so grumpy" Tohma snickered while The honor student in Jin's body sighed and slumped at his statement
"Can't we really just go on our day as usual? i mean its just our bodies that switched..." the honor student asked sitting down on the sofa Jin on their body laid down on earlier
"You can't at all, Jin tend to really care about his reputation and he's the future president of Japan's anomaly branch, we can't have him acting not like himself for a day... even if it is for the better he acts like you for once" Tohma explained while picking up and fixing the documents from the tea table
"I see... i kinda know Jin-san's schedule, but seeing as he is the captain he must have tons of work" They say picking up the untouched teacup and bringing it back to the tray as the real Jin left it not even touching it before he left.
Tohma grinned darkly, seeing an opportunity he won't get the real Jin to do even if he begged and dropped to his knees
"Well now that you mentioned it, he mostly help me with my paperwork during his free time" a lie, Jin wouldn't do that unless he is interested in the paperwork Tohma is working on and it's not even called helping when he blows a cloud of smoke at his face and give his own statement here and there while laying down lazily listening to some classical music
"That seemed like a lie but okay, I'll do my best then!" they beamed, Tohma's grin widen.
||•||
"what's their first class?" The honor student (Jin) asked them in a nonchalant voice, eyes half lidded looking bored
"U-uh well we both have Anomalous Information Studies today." Kaito nervously glanced at the sight of them, the approachable and kind honor student he have a crush on, acting cold and uninterested aches his heart a bit
"...okay" Jin doesn't seem to argue about it continuing to walk infront of them, Luca observes Jin in their body and thought to himself how the honor student would walk together Luca and Kaito, talking to them about something and perhaps their position sometimes in between of the two since him and Kaito act as a barrier for them if anything happens but now it seems like the honor student is leading them two acting more of a captain than a friend to them, though he must say he do love to see the honor student in a more cool aura and he can't help his mind wandering about the cool version of them and not Jin inside their body
"Oh if it isn't the honor student!" Ruistops at his steps and turns his attention at the honor student (Jin) as walks up to the trio, his charming smile brightens up the hallway making the passerbys turn their heads
"You look cuter today! did you do something with your appearance?" he looked at them with a smile and a flirtatious gaze, it took them a moment to answer before stepping forward and looking at gim properly
"...take a guess" The honor student (Jin) smirked at him crossing their arms
"Uhh, yes? i won't know if you don't tell me the deets--"
"Figure it out, if you can't then don't talk to me" The honor student (Jin) walked past him, their face returns to the same irritated scowl they are wearing earlier
"they seem... odd today don't they?" Rui scratched his chin confused, by how they acted towards him
"Yep, must've woked up in a wrong side of bed...or wrong body..." Kaito whispered that last bit but Luca heard him and nodded his head
The honor student (Jin) entered the classroom, some of their classmates looks at them before turning away instead to whisper, in Jin's case this isn't new at all he's used to this treatment ever since he was young, being an heir does get people talking alot. some even approaching him to get his favor
But this is different, the hushed whispers don't speak of compliments and opportunities, but instead of pity and concern
"They look grumpy today...."
"I wonder what happened that made them so angry"
"it's probably those ghouls huh? I'd be stressed out too if i have to spend my days running around them"
Jin was about to turn his back and snap at the hushing stufents before remembering Tohma's words, the servant would probably just be quite in their seat and it would be a bonus if they actually defended the ghouls
What a bother this day is
Luca and Kaito later on entered and sat next to him
||•||
"Do these men just go after them all the time?" Jin grumbled in the Honor Student's voice in P.E. uniform as he strut down the hallway
From the vice captain of Hotarubi, then to Alan and his first year to that happy go lucky anomaly carrier from Jabberwock. he can't believe how many ghouls had stopped on their tracks just to talk to him or the honor student in question
they just really even have to piss him even more off when he got lingering touches from them that stayed longer to be considered as a gesture. A pat in the head, a tuck of his hair in his ear, even going as far as hanging their arms in his shoulder...! just how touchy feely is HIS servant to these people really?
He can't also believe he had to dress himself in the dark and close his eyes the whole time he was dressing himself on their gym clothes
he clicked his tongue before walking to up the tracks, he stretched his limbs before preparing for his turn at the tracks watching the other general students finish a lap
Jin might not be the fastest runner in the world but he isn't bad when it comes to physical classes
so he sprinted as fast as he could
but he absolutely forgot he was in their body and gave it too much sheer force that he felt their legs almost give up with every stride he took when the adrenaline rush lowered bit by bit
he slowed down near the finish after a lap, the anomalous coach blew its whistle writing down something in the clipboard before he limped to the side with his laboured breaths as he felt the cramp finally getting to his or he meant their calf.
"Woah!!" few heads including Jin's turn to the usual deep cold voice that looks down on others is now toned with amazement for someone he considers his servant, Jin (The Honor Student) is here, in the shade of trees with admiration in his eyes while he gazed at the Honor Student
Everyone thought that was unnerving
"What are you doing here?" Jin whispers as he strode up to them slowly clearly tired from the whole running he just did in their body
"Ah, Tohma let me take a walk since I'm done with my work and i forgot i was in your body so i thought i was late for class and rushed to the tracks and..." Jin (the honor student) noticed how their legs shakes as the real Jin in their body gripped his body's shoulders with force they couldn't imagine they had in their fingers in the first place
"Jin..?"
"Well since you're here, carry me to the nurse's office i think i ran too much with this weak ass legs of yours" The honor student (Jin) slung their arms in Jin's (The Honor Student's) shoulders as they limply walked together with the cold tyrant captain of Frostenheim that who is seemingly to be in their mercy
The general students is going to mind their business on this one.
||•||
from a far, it seemed romantic really
in fact one would think like this;
the stoic stone cold captain of Frostenheim finally warming up to the wholesomeness the Honor student always seem to carry around them and now its Jin's turn to carry them and cheer up the Honor Student with the same warmth who's actually being so frowny and snappy today
"You were so cool Jin, i never ran that much in that class so seeing myself run that fast, it's so amazing!" It was really astonishing seeing his features smile like he have no problems to worry about, but he figures his face can only smile like that if they were in his body, only they can smile in his place.
he smirked at them
"If you think I'm that amazing for giving you a good grade in your records then do me a favor and--" a sudden force in his back cut him off as he slipped away from his body and slumped down together with the person who decided to just back hug him all of the sudden
Flowery scent filled up his nostrils as soft cotton invaded the stomach of the body he's currently on
"~~!!"
it's the lavender haired weirdo from Jabberwock, clinging to him-- no to the Honor Student this guy probably thought of
"Towa-kun? please let go of my- i mean the Honor Student" They say with firmness, trying to imitate the stoic Jin Kamurai, the real Jin in another hand find it amusing
"..." Towa stared at Jin (Honor Student) for a moment with a unreadable expression before letting go of the Honor student (Jin) and instead jumping and hugging Jin before enclosing his leg in his waist
"Woah! what's this all of a sudden?" Jin (the Honor Student) was taken aback by Towa's sudden change of target as the boy hums happily in his hold of them
"~~~! ~~!" Towa nuzzles himself further into Jin, hugging tightly as he could
the real Jin watched in awful shock at the scene before him, he doesn't know on which he'll be more appalled at;
at the blatant display of unwanted affection in his body or at the blatant display of affection for them infront of him
"Towa, you can let go of me i have to take Jin to the infirmary" Jin (The Honor student) tried prying Towa away from his body therefore only furthering Towa's clinging to be even tighter
"...---!!" Towa pouts at Jin (The Honor Student) before letting his legs slide down but not his arms that is still wrapped Jin's torso
"Didn't you hear them? they told you to fucking let go" The honor student's spoke with venom as Jin spites at Towa with their voice
"...." Towa silently glared at The Honor Student (Jin) as dark clouds started to brew outside with thunders that can be heard in the distance
"Towa..! I'll visit Jabberwock later, so please let go? I'll bring you a pretty flower later, okay?" they promise to the lavender haired boy in Jin's voice before accepting it with a smile and letting go of Jin's body before skipping down the hallway away from them
"Are you okay Jin?" They crouch down at him, he stared daggers at making them immediately nervous at his contact
"No, now help me up i think that guy dislocated my- i mean your ankles" Jin grumbles in a condescending tone as The Honor student helps him up finally slinging him back at their- his shoulder
"now about that favor, i want you to not let the other guys touch you THAT much anymore" their eyes widen at Jin's request as if its the most baffling thing he'll make them do
"...They don't touch me alot" They protest at him, fixing him up their shoulder before he slips again from their hold
"Oh yeah? i had five of them touch you everywhere earlier without me telling them to do so, actually make it six if you also consider that boy suddenly attacking me from behind " He clicked his tounge remembering the whole ordeal earlier, who the hell does that boy think he is glaring at him like that
"Towa didn't mean it, it's just that... he's very clingy you should understand him" They open the infirmary door alerting the sleeping nurse cat to wake up from its nap on the desk with the lunchbreak tag nearby it
"No, now do it or I'll ask your physical ed to take down the score i did for you today" Jin reprimanded them, it's a bit weird for him to be this worried for some little touches by other ghouls, but to be honest it's cute
"what are you giggling at?" he raised his eyebrow at them as they giggle at him even further
"i guess i can do what you asked" They beamed at him once again, he can't really get used seeing his face with that warm expression
but maybe, just maybe.... someday he'll experience to smile like that
if only....
"good, because if you don't then I'll tell them myself to fuck off forever in your body or not so you'll stay with me forever" he turns himself away from them before plopping and laying down in a infirmary bed ignoring the cat nurse that's sitting by in the nurse's desk that picked up a document, waiting for him to sign
"is that a promise?" Jin ignored them too but he guess they knew the answer
by the next day the two turned back to their original bodies, but Jin's promise remains if he sees one of those assholes try touching them once again

Online Matchup 12
Summery: Something seems to be going on with Jason. Instead of pushing him, Y/n lets him be and talks to friends.
Warning: swearing
I Tag list: @teapartydreams @adorabluesposts
ao3 Series master list
A/n: Happy holidays! Have a filler, it’s a little angsty but it ends in a happy. I know I've been just posting just this pic. I'm having a bit of a hard time ending the other fics but hope to get them done in January. That is my goal.
—————
March 22
Y/N (7:37 am)
How’d it going today?
Y/n (8:58am)
I burnt my breakfast
I don’t even know how that happened
I looked away for a minute and the next thing I know
The smoke detector went off and there’s smoke in the kitchen
D:
I’m so sad
Now I don’t have anything to eat and I’m late for school
Y/n (10:00am)
I am not sure why I thought getting my engineering degree was a good idea
Nothing my teacher is saying is making sense
I want to go home
Y/N (1:28pm)
So, classes are done but now I have to work
With the amount of sleep I didn’t get
Work is the last thing I want to do
Y/n (3:43pm)
I made another fire again today
Downside, they docked my pay a little
Upside, I get to go home early today
So there’s that
Y/n (4:39 pm)
I hope you’re doing okay
Y/n (5:04 pm)
Hey Steph?
Is Jason okay?
Stephanie
What do you mean?
Y/n
I don’t know
I haven’t heard from him today
I just want to know if he’s okay
Stephanie
He hasn’t talked to you at all today?!.
Y/n
No, and we didn’t get into a fight
Did something happen?
Stephanie
Yeah, but I don’t think I’m the one who should tell you
Y/n
Yeah I understand
There are some things he hasn’t told me
I know that much
Stephanie
I’m sorry
Y/n
No worries
But could you tell me if he’s doing okay whenever you see him?
Stephanie
Of course
Y/n (5:14 pm)
Do you think you’ll see Jason today?
Roy
Um, I’m on my way to him now
How’d you know?
Y/n
Wild guess
I know he’s dealing with something but I don’t know what
Could you tell him I’m here for him if he ever needs me?
Roy
Why can’t you tell him yourself?
Y/n
He hasn’t been talking to me today
And I didn’t want to push if he doesn’t want to talk
The last time we went no contact, we both pushed each other away
Roy
That asshole
Y/n
Just be nice when you see him
Roy
I was
But now I should give him shit for what he’s putting you through
Y/n
No don’t
This is nothing compared to whatever Jason is going through
Roy
If I didn’t know better
You already know what’s he going through
Y/n
But I don’t
I just know that it’s bad if he’s not talking to anyone right now
Roy
You really care about him huh?
Y/n
I’m not afraid to admit it
Roy
Good
Jason needs someone like you on his side
I’m glad he has you
You threw your phone on the couch after reading Roy’s message, and bit your thumbnail in thought. Roy’s words had a deeper meaning now then before you knew the whole truth. And wondered if they would hold the same weight after they realized you went behind Jason’s back to find the truth.
It wasn’t something you needed to worry about now. There was something more pressing and you weren’t sure what to do but wait.
Sighing, you stood from the couch and made your way to the kitchen. After eating supper, you retrieved your laptop from your room and set it on the table.
Staring at it for a good minute or two, you made up your mind and turned it out. Once logged in, you went through the motions and found yourself in the Batcomputer again.
There was nothing for you to do but watch and wait. And that’s what you did for the rest of the night, you watched and listened as they talked out plans and watched as Oracle fought against the Calculator.
Scared of being discovered, you were debating whether or not you should leave. But you couldn’t, not until you knew Jason was okay.
But the decision was made for you when Oracle forced both you and Calculator when she rebooted her system. You gave her credit and wondered why she didn’t do that earlier.
With nothing to do, you slumped against your chair and hoped everything turned out in their favour.
“Jason you have a minute?” Roy called as the Outlaws made their way out of the building with Riddler in tow. Jason nodded, and the two of them branched off from their friends.
”What’s up?” Jason asked when they were far enough away from prying ears.
“Have you talked to Y/n lately?” Roy asked, and Jason flinched at the mention of you. “I’ll take that as a no.”
“Are they doing okay?” Jason asked, rubbing the back of his neck. Roy shrugged and said he didn’t know. “What do you mean you don’t know?”
“Exactly that, I don’t know,” he answered, “I just know that they’re really worried about you and wanted you to know that they’re there if you need them.”
“I’ll always need them,” Jason said without a second thought.
“That’s probably something you need to tell them, not me,” Roy said and looked towards their friends. “Look, everything seems to be okay here now. And I doubt Batman needs our help right now.”
“Probably because he’s being a stubborn asshole,” Jason muttered and Roy ignored it with a shake of his head.
“Why don’t you go see Y/N?” Roy suggested, “it would ease their mind a bit.” Jason shook his head at the thought.
“Not yet,” he said, “not until we deal with Joker. The last thing I need or want is for Joker to find Y/N.”
“Fair enough. Then at least answer their texts,” he said, “that’s something you can do without Joker knowing.”
“Suppose you’re right,” Jason said, sighing in defeat.
“I’m always right,” Roy said, gaining a laugh out of his friend.
“Not always,” he said and walked off towards his bike. He pulled out his phone. Scrolling through his messages, he couldn’t help but laugh.
Jason (12:35 am)
You set two things on fire today
One might think you’re a pyromaniac
Y/n (1:09 am)
:O
I am no such thing
i set ONE thing on fire and burnt my eggs
There is a difference
Jason
No I don’t think so
It’s the same thing
Y/n
Well then I guess your seeing a pyromaniac
Jason
I’ve dated worst things
Y/n
Ex-fucking-cuse me?
What could possibly be worse than a pyromaniac?
Jason
A serial killer
Y/n
YOU DATED A SERIAL KILLER?
Jason
Okay, not technically
Y/n
What does that mean?!
Jason
Means she was apart of the league of assassins
And given that their job description is basically their title
It's the same thing
Y/n
I can feel you shrugging like its not a big deal
But it is
And I worry for you and your taste of women
Jason
There’s nothing wrong with my taste in women
Y/n
Says the guy who dated a women who kills for a living
And me, who’s and I’m quoting here
a ‘pyromaniac’
Jason
Nothing wrong with a little arson
Y/n
My goodness
Judging by that statement alone, I think you’re the pyromaniac
Jason
Well, I mean I have done a little arson myself
So I’m not one to judge
Y/n
……
Jason
Wow, six dots
I must really made an impression
Y/n
You’re lucky your pretty
Jason
I knew it
You’re only into me because of my looks
Y/n
-_-
I’m going to bed
Jason
No, no no wait
I went a little to far, I’m sorry
Y/n
You’re forgiven
Can I call you? Or are you too busy for that?
Jason
Not busy persay, just I’m with my friends and I’m not yet ready for you to meet them
Y/n
Afraid I’ll run away?
Jason
Something like that
Sometimes they can be a little too much
And protective
Other then that, I wouldn’t mind hearing your beautiful voice
Y/n
Oof, maybe I should go to bed
I’m red like a tomato
Jason
Sounds like a sight to see
Y/n
I’m sure it is
Are you okay?
And don’t just saying something cheesy like
Jason
I’m better now that I’m talking to you
Y/n
You son of a bitch
I told you not to say something like that
Smooth fucker
Jason
But I am telling the truth
Something came up last night that triggered something
I had to leave town for the day, but my friends showed up and we talked.
Roy said something about you being worried
I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to worry you
I just, I needed to deal with it before I could see you or talk to you
Y/n
No I get
Probably didn’t help with all my messages
But I’m glad you’re feeling better
Still dealing with it?
Jason
Yeah
But once it’s done, I’ll come and see you
Promise
Y/n
Take your time with it, I don’t mind the wait
I’m just glad you to hear from you
Jason
I’m so glad I met you
Y/n
Me too

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
You stopped fighting, your body came to an abrupt halt and it made him move his hand away from your mouth. In the darkness you could not see his eyes past the gap in the helmet he wore, but he stood so close that your nostrils vaguely caught his scent. That awful plant’s effect had also been weakening your heightened sense of smell. “Lancelot?”
Those candle holders proved to be an enemy to him when they stood between you and him. The sight of one in your hands made his head hurt at the memory.
He nodded, his hold on you changed drastically, he cupped your cheek and rubbed your arm. “Are you hurt?”
“You’re alive…” Seeing him alive and well had a strong reaction in you, you threw yourself into him, embracing him with all your might. First you felt him tense up, but he quickly relaxed and brought his arms around you to reciprocate.
He knew he should make haste before they found the dead guard down in the dungeons. But this… was hard to deny himself of.
It felt so serene to hold him in the dark, to feel his chest move with each breath he took, if only it had been in a different location.
“I’m so happy to see you.” you murmured against his shoulder.
Slowly he began to loosen his hold. “I feared the worst…”
So many scenarios had run through his head whilst searching for you. He feared Aldith had taken you to the paladins, or worse, Abbot Wicklow.
“Please, Lancelot, don’t let go of me yet.” Your hold on him got tighter, you didn’t care that it would betray how vulnerable you felt in that moment.
His hand came up to cradle the back of your head, what you had said must have meant more to him than you had expected. That light scratching at your scalp of his fingers was ridiculously comforting, it was such a good feeling especially when he included the back of your neck.
You forced your wandering thoughts back together. “They have Percival, they’ve been keeping him locked inside the dungeons. If I didn’t obey Lord Leoric, he said he’d hurt him.”
“He is safe.” he hushed. “Percival has never set foot in this castle.”
You leaned back to look at him, ignoring the urge to rip that helmet from his head. “What-… he was never really here?”
Lancelot shook his head, understanding why they had wanted you to believe this. “He was with me. Currently he is waiting for us outside.”
“They lied to make me obedient.” you scoffed bitterly. “But I am glad that it was a lie. Unfortunately they used that lie to make me drink some of that plant’s sap that they used on me before.”
“What?” he grew gravely concerned, just days ago it had nearly killed you. “Are you ill? What is it doing to you?”
“It’s to make me too tired to use my magic.” you explained. “My father learned about my ability to create fire, but I don’t think they know just what that green fire truly is.”
“He is here?” he asked, “Aldith is here?”
It was a sickening thought that you were in the same building Aldith was in. “Yes. Ravenwick is no longer safe. After your indiscretion towards the Church, the Trinity Guard went to Ravenwick, no doubt to see if we would show up there.”
“My ‘indiscretion’?” He was smiling under that helmet.
Hearing that slightly playful tone was like a salve to your mind. “You know, that time you humiliated the Trinity Guard in front of Abbot Wicklow.”
He nodded a few times, chuckling warmly, then pointed at one of the chairs. “I found your clothes by your scent, they are over there. I believe they will be more comfortable to ride in than that dress.”
You were sure glad to hear that. They had found and taken your clothes away even though you had hid them. And a dress was not very handy if it would come to battle, you didn’t want to trip over the fabric of it. “How did you even find me?”
He sounded like it was such a normal thing to remember a small detail like that after so long. “You told me once that Aldith knew someone here in Morrowstead who was interested in you, I simply sought out the wealthiest person here.”
It left you near speechless. “You remember that?”
He nodded, then steered you by the arm towards where the clothes were. “We should leave. Percival is waiting by the horses in the forest. Go and dress yourself.”
That was a risky thing. “They could find him!”
“He’s not alone.” he said. “Fear not. The boy is safe.”
Who was with him…? “Not alone?”
The sound of footsteps approaching the door made your heart jump into your throat. “Dammit. You need to hide!” You quickly grabbed the stack of clothes, pushing them into his hands, then took him by the arm and rushed him towards the bathing area behind the curtain, whispering, “Don’t come out until he’s gone.”
That curtain was only just closed behind him when the door opened and Lord Leoric walked in, looking a bit surprised to see you there.
“Still awake?” he questioned out loud and placed the candelabra he carried on the table. “That spares me the trouble of waking you. Come here.”
You feared what would happen if Lancelot was found, this place had to house many guards and no one could fight off such a large group of them if they were to attack, not for long at least.
Lord Leoric watched you approach and made you halt when you were halfway there. “Did you bathe tonight?”
That answer came fast. “Yes.”
“Good.” he said, getting closer. “I could not sleep. My study keeps me awake. I came to find answers to some of the questions I have yet to solve.”
Gods… what did he want now? More Fey Fire? Or were you going to have to drink more of that plant’s sap?
He stopped a few steps away. “I see no Fey marks on your face, while the Weeping Monk apparently had ones beneath his eyes. How come you do not have them?”
Your back was facing the direction of the bathing area, and you could only hope that Lancelot was staying hidden. “Mine are different. They are hidden.”
“Hidden where?” he asked.
You dragged a finger from beneath your eye and over your cheek. “Here. Sometimes they show themselves. But I have no control over it.”
You considered it unwise to give him too many details about the Ash Folk. An Ash tree was one of the things that would certainly cause your markings to appear. Why? you did not know. And you certainly didn’t want to be experimented on to find out.
Lord Leoric hummed pensively. “Are there other places where they would show?”
“No.” It made you wary.
“I should not trust you to speak the truth. You would lie to spare yourself.” He crossed his arms. “Take off the dress and then turn slowly. I want to see if what you say is true. You can dress again once you have done that.”
There was absolutely no way that you were going to oblige, and he couldn’t use Percival to blackmail you to do it. “No.”
The reaction was expected, but he was displeased nonetheless. He grew agitated quickly. “Must I call upon my guards to help you?”
Something dropped to the floor with a loud metal sound in the bathing area and caused you to jump a little. Your reaction to the noise may have been what made Lord Leoric not view you with suspicion. The Hidden’s whispers warned you of the storm about to break loose from behind the curtain. And in that moment, you were counting on it. This sadistic bastard asking you to undress was the last straw. Study or not, this was madness.
“Go and sit on the bed.” Lord Leoric commanded as he drew his sword. “Do not move from there!”
You walked to the bed as he approached the bathing area and sat down, with patience and odd curiosity you watched him move the curtain a little and step behind it. Somehow you weren’t worried, not even when more sounds of falling items reached your ears. That Lord was not a good swordsman, he held his sword wrong, you knew because Lancelot had told you many times when you did it yourself. The bathing area grew eerily silent and only then did you feel how your heart went a little faster. The curtain opened and Lancelot stepped out, taking off the helmet and putting it down on the dresser. Even as he stood in the shadows you could see that his hands were unsteady. You rose to your feet, it was all your legs managed at the sight.
He tapped the top of the helmet with his finger once, fixing his eyes on it. “That shard was meant for him, was it not?”
“It was.”
“Good.”
Slowly you approached him, feeling the adrenaline radiate off of him. “Are you alright?”
“Yes.” He turned his eyes to you. “Did he behave this way towards you before?”
You knew what he was worried for. “I’m quite certain that he was only interested in studying me. But he went to cruel measures to do so. He even made me bathe constantly, like I was drenched in something vile. Like he wanted me to be just perfect for him.”
“The only one bathing now is him, in his blood.” He deadpanned, not caring if the jest was inappropriate. That bastard had been inappropriate too.
Hearing him speak of the dead in such a way was not what you expected, your mouth was a little agape. “Lancelot.”
He bit his lip for a second, but knew you did not expect for him to feel regret for saying it. “I will not pretend to have respect for a dead man who locked you away in here. I have been here for hours, I have heard the guards speak, I know he was trying to learn all about our clan through you.”
Seeing him so protective, and knowing he went through the trouble of even coming here to help, had made your heart wrap him inside of it warmly again. As he continued to quietly utter his dismay over what he had heard about your treatment there, you reached out and took hold of his hand, cradling it inside your own. He fell silent mid-sentence, his hand was completely still.
“Are you certain you are well?” he asked, worried by the gesture.
“I am now.” Your eyes met his. “I was just thinking how grateful I am to know someone like you. Not many would do all that you have done for me. I am a little overwhelmed by that knowledge.”
He felt his heart increase it’s pace. Drawing air into his lungs felt suddenly quite a task. This was not the time to let himself be distracted and risk making a mistake.
His free hand closed what was the entanglement of your hands together. “Even if you were not my wife, even if you still hated me, I would still do it all for you.”
“I know.” Even to you, it was freeing to admit it.
His voice was somewhat unsteady. “We need to leave. I have found a path we can take. One moment, I will fetch your clothes.”
He went to get the clothes and handed them to you. You would have went to the bathing area behind the curtain to change clothes, but…
“Could you… uhm…” You made a circling motion with your index finger.
He immediately turned around and took some steps further into the room to give you the space and privacy. You changed into your clothes quickly, then grabbed your boots from where they stood at the end of the bed.
After you were done, you approached his side. “Back in my ‘filthy’ clothes.”
He frowned. “They are not filthy.”
You could not resist. “Did you sniff them to be sure?”
He had walked right into that one and rolled his eyes a little, shaking his head at the blatant attempt to get under his skin. “No.”
Why had that sounded like a lie?
“Ready?” he asked.
You nodded and allowed him seize your hand to guide you along. He picked up the satchel from the bed and handed it over, giving you a moment to put it on.
And so began the journey through the castle together, his more advanced sense of smell worked to his benefit. He was so calm and calculated, so certain of what he was doing. You trusted him effortlessly because of it. He only let go of your hand when it was necessary, then blindly fished around for it again until he found it. Just once did you mess with him a little by moving your hand just out of his reach when he was blindly fishing for it with his, near instantly he turned his head to look at you, worried until he saw the little grin on your face. Your hand was caught by him in a demanding way after that and it took everything not to laugh at his response. It was clear to see that he was once responsible for protecting Father Carden, he knew where to stand and how to walk in a way that shielded you the most from the threats of potential danger.
Almost did you come into sight of some guard patrolling, but he was quick to move you into the shadows again. The guard had noticed a shadow moving on the ground and drew his sword, he called out a name that you assumed belonged to one of the other guards. Lancelot moved his arm, maneuvering you to stand back and against the wall behind him. If he drew his sword, the guard would hear. He reacted when the guard came to pass the corner you both were hiding behind. Lancelot immediately tried to disarm the guard, but the man was build much broader than he was and managed to slam him with his back into the wall. Lancelot sank to the floor down to one knee, he was disoriented.
You weren’t going to stay in the shadows and sprung to action. The guard was broad, but that didn’t stop you from coming up behind him and grabbing hold of his helmet to yank him back with it. He angrily stumbled backwards until the helmet came loose and in a spur of the moment you struck him in the face with it. The guard bled from his nose but it was not enough to knock him down. There, on one of those fancy low pillars, stood a candelabra. You grabbed it and used every bit of your strength, that the plant still allowed, to hit the guard over the head with it. The force of the blow had even you stumbling to the side, the guard fell to the ground with a loud thud, he was not getting back up any time soon after that. You hurried over to Lancelot who had tried to stand but sank back down again.
You rubbed his back and realized that the scars must have been hurting after he hit the wall with his back. “Lancelot, are you alright?”
He winced a little, taking a few deep breaths. “Just a moment.”
When he sat upright a little more, stretching his back, you cupped the side of his neck, it instantly made him fix his attention on you.
Worry flooded your eyes. “Do they hurt?”
He knew what you had meant. “It will pass.”
You let your hand slip down to rest on his chest while he took a brief moment to recover.
His eyes fell on the candelabra, then back on you. “Thank you.”
You withdrew your hand. “I wasn’t going to let that bastard murder you.”
His features softened, a gentle smile played on his lips. He rose from the ground and collected your hand in his own, then started to walk with you through the castle again, resuming the path to freedom.
“We are almost there,” he whispered.
And then a bell rang through the castle, followed shortly by more of them. They must have found Lord Leoric and sounded the alarms. Lancelot walked faster, leading you hallway to hallway until you reached a door that was easily overlooked if one did not know it was there.
He had to duck to pass through the doorway and after you did so as well, he made certain that the door was closed. A narrow stairwell led down into the catacombs beneath the castle, it was unnerving to be there but the Ash Man paid no mind to those long dead. A set of very dusty old stone steps led up to a trapdoor, it’s lock had been forced open by him earlier. You followed him closely up the steps at his request because he feared someone might come and steal you away from under his eyes again. The moonlight that met your face held the place under a mystical glow. He supported you by the elbow as you stepped out from the trapdoor and unto the grass.
“We need to make haste.” He looked in the direction from where the bells sounded.
With that, you agreed. Together you hurried towards the forest, it was necessary to get out of the open grass field fast, those keeping watch on the castle’s walls could detect two people rushing towards the woods at any time. The sound of galloping horses was heard just as you reached the trees. Lancelot came to a sudden stop and pulled you with him into the narrow open space of a rock formation that was overgrown by moss and ivy.
“We are close. But I believe the guards saw us heading here.” he whispered in a nervous manner. “We wait here for a moment.”
Just as he had spoken you could hear horses slow down behind the rock formation. Lancelot’s hand went to the pommel of his sword, his other took hold of your lower arm, but his eyes were fixed on where the enemy could appear from. The tension of being caught had you breathing shakily, if they found you here… after that… Aldith…
Lancelot turned his head to face you upon feeling the tremble in your arm, his hold on it changed to a comforting one. He spoke with his eyes in that second, telling you that it was alright, you managed a small smile that lasted only a blink. He listened intently to his surroundings, and then the horses galloped away again. A breath of relief was released by you.
“Come.” He gave a soft tap against your arm with his fingers, urging you to follow.
The small stop in the running had given you some time to catch your breath and now you walked through the forest at just a slightly rushed pace. The walk did not last long anymore and after a few minutes Lancelot came to a halt at another rock formation. He took off the plated piece of armor that had been part of his disguise and discarded it.
“Born in the dawn?” he spoke in a normal tone.
Percival darted out from behind the rocks, saw Lancelot, saw you, and a blink of an eye later the boy was embracing you. “You’re alive!”
You knelt down to his height and reciprocated the warm welcome. “It’s so good to see you. I was so worried about you.”
The view behind Percival caught your attention, a man dressed in armor came from behind the rocks, holding the reins of Goliath and two other horses. Percival stepped back and saw you look at the man.
“Lancelot? Who…” you looked at him to see how he reacted to this man’s presence.
“He’s the Green Knight!” Percival announced with a hint of pride. “He’s my friend.”
Lancelot walked over to the knight. “Lord Leoric is dead. Her father is here and I believe he forms a threat. There are guards scouring the woods for us.”
“Then we should leave before they find us.” the knight said, handing the reins to Lancelot. The man approached you and introduced himself to you formally. “The name is ‘Gawain’. You must be y/n, friend of Percival?”
You watched him give a polite inclination of the head. “I-… yes. I’m y/n. I’m sorry, but I thought the Green Knight was captured and killed by the paladins.”
Gawain could hear the confusion in your voice. “I was.” He looked down. “A dear friend of mine gave me a second chance at life, one I will not waste. But that is a story for another time, because we do not have time right now.”
From the corner of your eyes, you could see how Lancelot seemed to be rather relieved that this man was here, as if he had already formed a strange bond of trust with him. It greatly confused you how this knight, Gawain, did not seem to have ill intent towards Lancelot. You could tell that Gawain was Fey, Sky Folk by the scent of him if you really focused. And somehow you got the feeling that he looked a bit familiar, but you couldn’t recall ever even meeting him before.
“Percival, ride with me now.” Gawain beckoned for the boy.
Percival walked over to him but he did not reach the knight, an arrow flew just passed his head and the next moment Lancelot had grabbed him, shielding him from the threat with his body. There was barely a second to react when another arrow planted itself into a tree just beside you.
“We are under attack!” Gawain shouted.
All began to try and run from the direction the arrows were coming from, moving between the rocks to reach a more densely grown part of the forest. That chance was taken from you when the face of the one who had been a part of those abducting you appeared in front of Lancelot and Percival, bow in hand and aiming right at them. Percival had ran a bit up ahead of Lancelot.
“I wouldn’t move if I were you.” Kazamir mocked them, then looked at you and Gawain. “That goes for you as well. Move and an arrow goes through that boy’s skull.”
Lancelot and Gawain were examining the situation, but their plan to defend themselves evaporated when they saw that others were walking up to Kazamir. Aldith walked into sight, along with some of his men that you recognized from Ravenwick. Lancelot was visibly trying to resist the urge to grab hold of Percival and get him out of harm’s way, but Kazamir was clearly hoping he would do so, it would be the reason to send an arrow through him. All four of you were kept under the threat of an arrow being send through you, bows and arrows where being aimed at all.
Aldith looked towards Kazamir, fury blazing in his eyes. “I thought you said the Weeping Monk was dead, Kazamir!” He noticed how the sellsword was trying not to look at him. “You were going to sell him to Lord Leoric behind my back, were you not?!”
Kazamir gave up on pretending. “I am a sellsword, Aldith. You of all people must understand that coin speaks loud. And Lord Leoric would have given me more coin than you could.”
“And now?” Aldith demanded to know.
Kazamir held no shame. “Lord Leoric is dead. Your offer is highest again.”
You were not surprised in the slightest. Aldith was no saint and neither were the people who he chose to surround himself with.
Aldith gave Kazamir a nod and got closer in your direction, sword in hand, your sword. He commanded one of his men, “Grab her,”
The sellsword grinned at Gawain as he walked past him to reach you. You saw Lancelot take one step when the sellsword roughly grabbed you by your arm and twisted it behind your back, a sword was held to your throat.
“If he moves again. Kill him.” Aldith had seen the Ash Man’s reaction and spoke to him, “I would say you did me a favor by killing Lord Leoric, now I can sell her off a second time. You however, are too much of a risk to be left alive.”
Percival had a murderous glare, much like the ones Gawain and Lancelot had. The sellsword returned with you to Aldith, and you couldn’t bear to look at Lancelot or the others, knowing what they may witness from your father’s behavior.
Aldith moved past his men to reach you. “After all these years, you should know by now that you cannot run or hide from me. Did I not teach you this?”
You forced your eyes away from him and to the grass beside him, a response he did not like and it made him grab you by the chin. He held the point of your own sword against your throat.
“You will choose in what order they die.” Aldith found joy in his sadistic ways. “Name the first.”
You spat in his face, not caring about the retaliation that would surely follow from him. And indeed his favorite retaliation towards you came in the form of a hard slap across your face that send you straight to the cold damp ground. The taste of blood filled your mouth and you spitted it out, your teeth had broken the skin inside your cheek. Aldith reached down to pull you back to your feet, undoubtedly to just send you back to the ground again.
His hand never got close enough.
An intensely bright green fire erupted from all around. Had the plant’s sap worn out? No… no this couldn’t have been your doing. This fire was brighter, stronger and more ruthless than it had ever been. The Hidden let their presence be known and it seemed even those of Manblood heard them now. Chills ran over your spine, your markings rose to the surface of your skin. Chaos erupted, steel collided with steel.
Percival ran over to you, shaking your shoulder, and helped you up from the ground. “Get up!”
The flames were everywhere, two of the sellswords were rolling over the grass in agony to extinguish the flames who only engulfed them more violently. It was hard to see who was where, and even Percival had not let go of your hand as he struggled to see through the bright flames that contrasted against the darkness of the night.
And then you saw Lancelot, fear slammed into your heart at the sight of him in a viscous fight against Aldith. His markings were glowing a deep fiery crimson beneath his eyes. Percival saw it too, then spotted Gawain fighting two of the remaining sellswords. What neither of you saw was Kazamir approaching fast, you barely had enough time to avoid being grabbed. And as if it was instinct, you pushed Percival out of harm’s way. Kazamir lunged at you, aiming to hit you just as Aldith had done but you evaded it. Suddenly he sank to the ground, yelling in agony. Percival stood behind him, the small knife in his hand was bloodied from stabbing Kazamir in the buttocks. You reached for the knife, Percival already anticipated it and handed it over quickly.
You send that knife deep into Kazamir’s eye and swore to remember getting Percival a new one instead. “That’s for murdering Amelia, you scum!”
Kazamir fell face first into the grass and you ignored the sick feeling it caused in your stomach. Percival was looking at you with wide eyes, you on the other hand were looking where Lancelot and Gawain were. Gawain was fighting the last sellsword standing. Lancelot was still in combat with Aldith. Through the Hidden’s whispers you could sense his rage, the uncontrollable fury that was causing him to be reckless and unfocused. They were warning you of the danger that the Ash Man refused to acknowledge.
You picked up Kazamir’s sword and handed it to Percival. “Stay here!”
Percival nodded, then looked rather impressed with the blade he had been handed, it had been quite some time since he had held a sword.
Aldith was taking advantage of the blinding rage Lancelot was in, he even laughed as he parried the attacks. Aldith drew a dagger as he locked crossguards with him, your dagger. You foresaw what he intended to do and grabbed Aldith’s arm, preventing him from sinking the dagger into Lancelot. Lancelot was quick to steal the sword from Aldith’s grasp and discarded it to the side. Aldith tried to grab you, to use you as a shield, but that attempt received a gruesome reaction. A bone cracking sound sounded as Lancelot twisted Aldith’s arm and then dragged him away from you by the limp hanging limb. Lancelot threw Aldith to the ground and took one step back, trying to regain control over the storm raging inside of him. Two seconds passed and he kicked Aldith back to the ground when he tried to get up. He briefly looked at Gawain to see if the knight needed aid, but Gawain was just pulling his sword out of the sellsword’s guts.
“Lancelot.” You stepped to his side, holding up a hand to make him halt. His eyes were so dark and intense that you feared he would not listen.
Instead his eyes fixed on your face right away, before you could say a word to calm him and make him regain control over his anger, he reached out and cupped the side of your neck. His markings returned to their ashen-like state.
He was trying to see the damage that Aldith had done to your face. “I am sorry.”
He swore to protect you against him, that Aldith would never lay a hand on you again, and he had failed.
You were trying to understand what on earth he was apologizing for.
Aldith scoffed, mocking him as he tried to get up from the ground. “Pathetic fool.”
Percival pointed the sword to Aldith’s nose, Gawain proudly stood beside him and kept a watchful eye on it.
“Aim at his eyes, boy.” Gawain encouraged and saw Percival follow the given advice. “Good lad.”
You took Lancelot’s hand from your neck. “I need your sword.”
Lancelot did not react, not knowing why you were making that request. You reached for it and took it from his hand, slightly surprised by how he did not prevent it. Aldith watched you get closer to him, the sword restless in your hand. You hated how your hands were unsteady, it shouldn’t have been so hard to do what had to be done.
Aldith saw the doubt in your eyes. “First you kill Cassian, your own brother, and now me?”
Gawain tugged at Percival’s jacket, moving him out of the way. Lancelot did not take his eyes off of the threat on the ground for even one second now.
“You sold me. You sold me.” you gritted out, tears burning in your eyes. “After everything I did for you and Cassian, after all I suffered through at your hands, you sold me! You hounded me through the lands when you could no longer lay claim on me and you’ll try to do it all again and again.”
“You owe me a debt!” Aldith spat out. “My son is dead because of you!”
You refused to let him put the blame on you again. “He would have been alive if he didn’t treat me like I was cattle to sell!”
“You are nothing more than cattle to sell with that filthy blood inside of you!” he shouted back.
Lancelot took a step forward, you stopped him by holding a hand in his path. This was not his duty or responsibility, this was you taking back the control over your life that had been stolen from you.
Your grip on the sword tightened. “I am Fey. I am Fey! I won’t hide my nature any longer. My mother was of the Ash Folk, her blood runs through my veins, and I’m proud it does!”
Aldith began to get up from the ground, Gawain wanted to stop him but you gestured for him not to do so, he had no weapons in reach anymore. “Your mother was weak, just as you are!”
Inside you had shut down any form of bond there may have been to this monster. All you could see was the threat he posed, to you, to those close to you and to all the Feys unfortunate enough to cross his path. He was the darkness suffocating the light out of you, leaving you in ruins over and over again, haunting your dreams and poisoning your days.
“Enough of this.” you adjusted your hold on the sword. “If you reunite with Cassian in the burning pits of hell, tell him I hope he burns as well as your sellswords just did.”
The cold comment took even Percival by surprise, the boy looked at you impressed and approvingly. Lancelot’s eyes were different now, his gaze swiftly moved over you.
“You!-” Aldith moved fast.
But the steel in your hands was quicker, it was just as you had imagined it happening. With one swift swing of the sword, the edge of the blade cut through Aldith’s throat. Aldith stumbled to the side in shock, his hand flew to his throat, he tried to speak but all words drowned in his blood. He stumbled all the way to a tree and leaned against it for support until his legs gave out under him. His body shocked a few times, then he was completely still. Lancelot was looking at it happening, processing how quick that had just all played out before him, as were Gawain and Percival. You walked over to Aldith, breaking your wrist free from Lancelot’s hand as he tried to prevent it. Aldith laid facing away from you and you walked around him to see his lifeless eyes. You need to see them, to know that it was truly over, that fleeing from him was over.
“It’s over.” you quietly spoke, hearing how monotone your voice was.
Lancelot had picked the sword, that had been stolen from you, up from the ground and walked over to you with it. It was Gawain who found the dagger that had been dropped to the ground in the chaos of the fight, he gave it to Lancelot who brought both weapons over to you.
“It is over.” he agreed, offering you the weapons.
With unexpected steady hands you took them, handed him back his sword, and returned your own sword and dagger to the belt at your waist where they belonged. The flames had almost completely extinguished, another proof that they lived only at their creator’s will. You were quiet when stepping away from Aldith’s corpse and going into the direction of the horses more.
Gawain was the first who dared to ask, “Are you alright?”
“I just killed my father.” you told him.
The knight send a sympathetic look. Percival came to your side, standing a little against you but not fully daring to intrude on the silent air you kept around you now.
Lancelot stepped to your side as well. “You made the right decision.”
“I know.” But learning to live with it would take time.
“We should go.” Gawain looked at Lancelot. “The fire will have drawn attention from afar.”
Lancelot noticed that questioning look the knight send him and knew he would have to explain himself later. The knight tapped Percival on the shoulder and gestured towards the black stallion with a small white pattern on it’s back.
“But we have three horses. I rode the mare here.” Percival scrunched his nose.
Gawain sighed and steered the boy towards his horse. “Y/n will ride the grey mare. We have Gringolet to carry us.”
Percival sighed in defeat, grumbling his inaudible disappointment. Gawain took the sword from the boy and helped him up on his horse making sure that the boy was seated safely. You went to the grey mare, brushing a hand along her neck. Lancelot stopped close at your side, again trying to see if your face had sustained damage from being hit. You didn’t feel very alert or present, it was a quiet state of shock that you hoped to hide. But it seemed that by hiding it, it got more obvious.
“It will just be a bruise.” you did not make eye-contact with him.
He was forward with voicing his concern, “I worry most about the state of your mind right now.”
You shook your head, taking in a deep sharp breath through your mouth that filled your lungs to the brim. “It should not have been so simple for me to make the choice to kill him, and yet it was.”
He spoke quietly, seeing how Gawain and Percival were waiting. “Aldith chose to keep hunting you and you had the right to react to it. You were defending yourself, he was always the one attacking.”
That was true… Aldith wouldn’t have mourned you or felt sorry for your death for even a second.
“You have a conscience.” Lancelot said. “And compassion. There is no shame in feeling it.” He patted the saddle of the grey mare. “Go on.”
As you hoisted yourself into the saddle, he stood near in case you would accidentally misplace your foot in the stirrup. It was a small gesture, but it once again showed his caring nature. Such a small thing and still it was enough to feel a bit better, to allow yourself to feel that all would be well again in time, maybe not now, but it would be. By reaching down just a little, you were able to touch his shoulder and gave it a gentle squeeze. The moonlight touched his face when looking up at you and you couldn’t deny that that sight made the beat of your heart change it’s rhythm. The Ash Man snapped his eyes away, quickly moved to Goliath and hoisted himself into the saddle. Lancelot shared a look with Gawain, who nodded in return. Together you began to ride through the forest, away from Morrowstead and to a destination no one was certain of yet.

hen winning the buddie betting pool is the easy choice, but bobby winning is the right choice. hr red flags aside, it would allow for a parallel to 2x01. buck could ask, "you okay with this?" "well, i did technically hire him to be your partner. i don't have any doubts you two will be great life partners as well."

#hsr#honkai star rail#hsr 2.2#hsr spoilers#hsr leaks#the body of this post reads as far less enthusiastic than i really am#i just don’t know how to casually return from my latest 2 week hiatus only to gush abt a game i’ve hardly blogged abt before#but i’m not making a whole ass sideblog for it like i did for Genshin. nah y’all r gonna bear witness to my fixation with this one#so anyways don’t mind me. vibrating into another dimension with anticipation for the next 11 days#it’s insane man. a year ago i Never ever woulda thought i’d be so invested in this game. and it took Months for the game to really grab me#but i’m v glad i kept coming back even when i was struggling to really get into it. like i just had this feeling that if i stuck around and#gave the game a chance to really like. come into its stride. i just always felt like there was Something there and i just hadn’t found it#and holy shit i finally found it in Penacony. the devs really truly outdid themselves with this region and these characters and this story#not to discount everything that’s happened prior. like i was genuinely Liking it all before now but i wasn’t Loving it y’know#but that may be more a ‘me having to fight tooth n’ nail to force myself to consume new media’ thing than it is a matter of the actual game#anyways i came here to talk abt the program! bc since i’m not filming my HSR stuff i’m gonna be insufferable abt it on Tumblr instead ! :)#and i’m probably not filming any more Genshin stuff. or anything else at all for that matter but let’s not talk abt that dead dream#pun not intended lmao. Anyways let’s return to the subject at hand while there’s still room left in these tags shall we#i’m so fucking glad they had Aventurine on this program man. especially since he’s leaked to only have 18 lines in 2.2… it was nice to see-#-him here at least 🥹 i’ll take what i can get. his unenthusiastic little bird noises at the beginning.. him being reluctant to come out..#the way one of the first things to come out of his mouth was ‘y’know DR RATIO once told me…’ like boy we get it ur in love with him 🙄 (/J!)#i love how they can’t go on these programs w/o talking abt each other it’s adorable. AND THE WAY HE WAS THE ONE TO EXPLAIN BOOTHILL’S KIT!?#they can’t just fuel my crackship like this… god and his whole ‘muddle-fudger.. son-of-a-nice-lady?’ thing had me wheezing#Aven mocking Boothill’s inability to curse was not on my special program bingo card but fuck i’m here for it#and Robin being all curious abt him was so cute.. ‘who /is/ he? … does he order milk at the bar?’ i’m crying she’s so sweet#also the trailer was fucking insane. which feels redundant as hell bc all of HoYo’s version trailers go hard but like. still. wow.#that millisecond long shot of Boothill surveying the skyline is so fucking good. also what the fuck is Jing Yuan doing here!!#not complaining at all tho. we’ve got JY & DH(IL?).

@beatingheart-bride
"Maybe..." Randall murmured, still perplexed by Renfield's reaction-all the time he'd known the little guy, he'd been friendly to everyone, even people who didn't like him. Minnie constantly scooted him and the other strays away, but Renfield adamantly rubbed up against her legs when she was out on the sidewalk, undeterred by her dislike for him. So for him to just randomly get all worked up about someone he'd never met before was just...odd.
Still, he tried to brush it off-he also didn't miss the way Emily put on a smile and tried to laugh it off, a part of his heart sensing she was a little hurt by this response. Hoping to make her feel better about it, he said, "I'm sure he's just having an off day; don't take it too personally. I've had cats crawl all over me one day and want nothing to do with me the next, it's just how they are. Renny will probably be back later-maybe he'll be in a better mood by then."
"Since when did you get two lunchbreaks, Randy?"
"Just having a little something extra, Dave," Randall groaned, pausing to grab a napkin as he finished his sandwich, just as one of his coworkers had come downstairs for a smoke break-Dave was one of the more irritating coworkers he had to put up with on a daily basis; he insisted he was just an easy-going guy who liked a good joke, but his jokes were often hurtful and very seldom funny. Considering his idea of comedy was calling Randall "Randy" (which he had never gone by, even as a boy, and couldn't hardly stand as a nickname), it told him a lot about Dave's sense of humor (or lack thereof).
"And can I help you find anything, beautiful?" Dave asked, having noticed Emily and put on a smile, leaning up against the counter, his cigarette tucked behind his ear. "Maybe a date for Friday night? Pretty flower like you shouldn't have to hang out with a real weed like ol' Randy here."

I think I have rsd (especially around my interests and then my intelligence but that’s not pertinent here)#so I’ve never really been super open about what things interest me bc when I get made fun of for it or those things get insulted#It really hurts#the only people I’ve really felt comfortable opening up to are like. Sid obv and then this one friend of mine#bc the two of us found out we shared some interests and started like. telling each other about other things we like#I’d tell her about my silly little tv shows and podcasts and she’d tell me about the movies and books she was into#and I’ve explained to her before how I’ve never really been comfortable enough to talk about that shit and how I appreciated her being kind#and not insulting me like other people have in the past#but today I’m sitting on break and watching the replies she sent me and one of them is just a clip in response to my video from last night#where she just goes ‘girl I literally don’t care’ (and this was not in a joking way like that was her response#and it was in a tone that implied ‘so shut up about it’)#and like I get it! I am often not interested in the things that people tell me about! but I try to be earnest and engaged#and I can understand loving smth and wanting to share it with others! and how it sucks when people are then mean about it!#like when she tells me about a teen drama romance book or sends me instagram reels of cake decorating I try to respond with enthusiasm!#bc while the content may not interest me I like hearing about the things she enjoys and I’m glad she feels open to telling me about stuff!#but now I don’t want to share shit with her anymore bc this has given me a huge spike in anxiety and I feel like shit#idk. it’s stupid but it sucks#vent#ig

the curve
somehow ive found myself in a position where folks come to chuck in times of strife for encouragement. lets get the big part of this conversation out of the way LOVE IS STILL REAL and that is the thing to remember. that north star remains. today there is more to talk about though
existence pushes towards love community and freedom, because CREATION is what we were built to do and creation thrives with these things as fuel. IT GETS BETTER. LOVE IS REAL. however this change comes in up and down waves. its not a straight line and should not be expected to be
some of these waves are short and small, and some of the slopes are years or decades long. there is no mincing words here, we are entering a massive downward wave. the implications are huge and it is okay to mourn that. FEEL THOSE FEELINGS. it is an important part of the ride
the most telling sign post on our slope is this: tromp won the popular vote (or likely will when the votes are done). we can talk POLITICAL STRATEGY all day about electoral college or who should court the center or the left and on and on but ultimately THIS is the real story
to me it signals a TRUE cultural shift. likely conservatives will have presidency, senate, house, and supreme court. WHAT A GIANT SLOPE. HOLD THE HECK ON because we will be riding it for a while, deep into the pit of the void. hold your buds tight, prove love at the local level
but heres the thing, MASSIVE waves have happened before. theyll happen again. mind numbing slopes into the abyss and great soaring leaps into the sky. in fact the inertia almost ALWAYS causes them to happen right after each other. hippies or punks back in the day, buckaroos now
politically we were trapped in a basically fifty fifty trot for a long time, but it was not always like this (just look at old election maps what the heck). to be honest, tromps map looks like one of those old maps right now. and DANG did COUNTER MOVEMENTS blooms from those times
in other words, THERE WILL BE A COUNTER CULTURE MOVEMENT THAT WE HAVE NEVER SEEN BEFORE IN OUR LIFETIMES. you are now a rebel for the resistance and the wave that will swing back towards love will awe us in ways we cannot even imagine yet.
but for now, feel those feelings, mourn, prove love, stay safe. do not let the hope i am espousing feel like a distraction from the very real, even deadly consequences of the terrible pit we are plummeting into. it is a horrible day, and FUTURE HOPE does not diminish that, BUT
get ready because that counter culture wave is coming and YOU are a part of it. if you want to shout HECK OFF DEVILS then shout it LOUD, if you want to cry then cry HARD, if you want to love then love with your WHOLE HEART. thats the start of the movement that we dont know yet
when that movement takes shape we will feel the inertia of the curve and it may make us sick from the rollercoaster turn, and that pressure will be uncomfortable and scary, but THEN buckaroo, we will soar, and ill be so dang glad to be holding on tight with you when we do
