#sorry I had sugary drink so now I’m Energized

[skyward-floored]

Btw im luring you all in. I’m being sneaky. If you’re thinking to yourself “oh the whump hasn’t been too bad yet!” then my Evil Plan is succeeding wonderfully

[princessamericachavez]

For the fjorester short prompt: jester making fjord (or vice versa) a poor man’s mocha (hot chocolate + coffee)

Here’s the thing, Fjord doesn’t have a sweet tooth. 

He couldn’t afford to as he grew up. In the orphanage, you had to eat what you were given and be thankful for it, no matter how spare of crappy it tasted. 

Later, at sea, savory food tended to hold better than sweet treats that would go stale in the first few days of their journey. 

And so, he never really had many pastries in his life until Jester Lavorre came into it. 

And, dear gods, does the woman love her sugary treats. 

And he... well, he loves her. 

All of this is a very longwinded way of explaining to himself why on earth is he standing in a magical tower’s kitchen this early in the morning trying to figure out how to make her a sweet drink. 

Technically, he’s well aware he could just ask one of the many cats tending to the tower and they’d make something delicious for her —but that feels like cheating. 

He doesn’t just want to get her something... he wants it to be from him. 

Because Jester’s been a little bit more serious than usual lately, ever since Lucien’s been spying and communicating with them through her. 

He suspects she hasn’t slept too well, either, and her usual sunny disposition in the early morning (that used to drive him crazy when they first started traveling together) just hasn’t been there for a while. 

Now, he knows Jester doesn’t like coffee... but she likes hot chocolate, and he happens to know a mix of both that is sweet and hot and energizing... Vandran would get them for them as a treat after a particularly rough job, especially if whatever port they docked into had cold shitty weather. 

Fjord startles out of his thoughts when the water boils, and is in such a hurry to grab the teapot that he burns his hand. He courses, letting go, and holds his palm to his mouth. 

Fuck. 

He channels some of his magic towards his palm until the pain subsides and sighs. 

This is so stupid. 

And then, he hears a meow and notices a cat pushing the hot chocolate towards him. He blinks. 

Another cat just nudges the grounded coffee and gives him a look. 

They are helping him. 

“Thank you,” he sighs. “I’m sorry, I know I’m making a mess of your kitchen. I just... I wanna do it myself, you know? Jester’s so nice, and she does so much for all of us. I guess I wanted to do this for her.”

He feels another one of the cats purrs against his leg. 

His nose itches. 

“T-thanks” he sniffles. “I just gotta- okay, I can do this. I can do it.”

It’s so stupid, just some coffee and hot cocoa mixed together, but as someone who’s never even owned a kitchen, the whole venture is daunting and strange. 

But he gets through it, with a little nudge here and there from the cat-staff. 

By the end, he’s put together a perfectly nice cup that tastes just the way he remembers it should. 

“Alright, here we go.”

It’s worth it. It’s all worth it because Jester’s whole face lights up with a smile when he hands her the cup and her eyes shine when she tries it. 

“Fjord! You made this for me?”

“It’s not a big deal,” he lies with a shrug. “I just remembered I’d had some before... thought you’d like to try it.”

“Oh my god, I love it!” She bounces on her chair, as the rest of the Nein sit around her. 

“What’s that?” Yasha asks, leaning over Jester’s shoulder. 

“Poor man’s mocha,” Fjord replies. 

“Fjord made it for me!” Jester says at the very same time. 

“Oh, I know of that,” Caleb weights in. “It’s very good.”

“You made it?” Beau smirks, glancing at him with a knowing look and a shit-eating grin. 

“And you only made one cup?!” Veth jumps. “Fjord, why do you hate the rest of us so much?!” 

“What- I don’t-”

“You only made one for Jester? That’s not fair!”

“Look, it’s just-”

“It’s alright, Veth,” Caleb smiles. “We can get more.” He turns to the nearest cat and orders a batch. 

In an embarrassingly short time, the rest of the cats come out, each with a perfect cup of drink that makes his look like a child’s experiment. 

Fjord sinks in his chair, grumbling. 

But then, just as he’s kicking himself over the stupid idea, he sees Jester and she’s back to her shiny bright self.

She takes a sip of her cup and licks the foam over her lips in a way that makes Fjord’s insides feel hot and tense. He clears his throat, ducking his head. 

A kick under the table makes him look up. 

He finds Jester’s eyes on him. 

The rest of the group are talking excitedly about their plans for the day. 

Silently, Jester mouths the words “thank you” and sends him a smile so deliciously sweet that Fjord decides maybe he does have a bit of a sweet tooth after all.

haikyuu & cafes (1/?)

bigass creds to @luvoikawa with this post that inspired me to write too much nonsense about nonsense

all my writing got deleted edition 🐸 also jesus christ sorry this is super long i just really like cafes and drinkys and coffys...

karasuno

ukai

for a guy who gets up early every morning coffee is a must. canned coffee is his drink of choice for getting up and it’s one of his morning routines before starting work. he actually dislikes cafes because they have an atmosphere he isn’t too fond of and likes bars (enjoys shit beers = enjoys shit coffee) more- but he could go to a cafe when asked by his friends or if he’s going on a date, just don’t ask him about what type of coffee he’d like specifically because all he wants is it to be hot and black, no milk no sugar. when he was younger he actually disliked coffee, but with age he learned to 1. not be fussy about it 2. just tolerate it to pick him up. it’s not like he dislikes the tastes of it but i don’t see him as picking up oh many tannin inteiciasies cause he’s not developed a pallete, also gets the cheapest no fuss shit. prefers hot over cold even in the summer

for food, he doesn’t enjoy completely western menus. likes meat and doesn’t order any sweets like pastries and whatever the fuck, not only is it too expensive but also he’d just rather have the coffee unless he’s particularly hungry. like i said he isnt a cafe guy but life takes you to a lot of places so ☕️

takeda

actually can taste tanins like some sort of a legend. still though on a teachers salary you’re not going to have an espresso machine at home so he settles for his drip brew. actually doesn’t like espresso too much either if hes working at least. but since he is a teacher and a club supervisor he drinks 2 (two) of those shits a day, one in the morning from home one in the afternoon from the teachers lounge- needs it to deal with the energy at practice. takes just milk in his coffee and prefers it steamed, but has that shitty milk foamer thing that takes so much time to get results out of he just ends up drinking drip w cold milk; the workingmans choice.

with cafes and food he still enjoys drip brew (this time fancier) coffee with milk. could ask to taste test the plain bean coffee if he enjoyed his first cup so much. LOVES a pastry with his drink, if he goes there to do work will get a coffee and a pastry of any kind, i think he likes cream so expect him to get a cream puff esp if on a date cause then he gets to share it and be cute 🥴 loves a cafe hangout with friends or an s/o

kiyoko

pre time skip she did not need coffee at all. like her face at first says either only black coffee or shes so well adjusted she needs nothing and i’d say it’s the latter though i could debate. though she was an enjoyer of canned coffee milk later in life before having to consume coffee for life energy in her adulthood. nothing too fancy either though, small coffee machine that only she uses (tanakas a pussy!) for making coffee, pours milk and adds a teaspoon of sugar into it- doesn’t really like flavors cause to her they taste artificial. busy lady! so she can pick up some starbucks or sit down for a brief second and get coffee wherever she is, thinks it energizes her and also is an enjoyer of the novelty of steamed milk. it actually doesn’t buzz her ever even when she first starts drinking it so rather than having to drink more coffee as the tolerance builds up she just has a plateau of coffee give me caffeine boost

for cafes she just gets whatever looks good to her. also not the biggest fan of sweets rather than a good bread, enjoyer of plain croissants and good bread if she gets a sandwitch. who doesn’t love carbs

yachi

the sweet sugary drink enjoyer has arrived. didn’t even touch coffee until her 3rd year at college, tried a sip of black coffee from her friend in junior high and became instantly afraid of it- managed to skirt by college with a good schedule until the junior terror seeped into her veins and now her early classes she has to drink coffee for. but like she still gets good grades so it’s only the morning she’s required to partake in bean water for- doesn’t even do anything on weekends if she doesn’t have anywhere to be. at home she has 2 syrups 5 milks and overloads her drink so much she’s barely drinking any coffee at all, still the sugar and the hot stuff in the morning has an effect (placebo lol)

loves a starbucks for its accessibility, but gets refreshers and iced drinks more often than any of their caffeine. not only does she think it’s not worth it if she can make coffee at home, but she has a tiny cafe she goes to to cram that serves a mean lavender rose vanilla latte (fucking ew?) that shes in love with. but it costs a lot and she’s a rare visitor, gets sweets and small sandwitches if she goes. w friends she doesn’t know that well she’ll get a flavored coffee to seem mature&cute, but with old friends she’d rather drink a milk tea or a seasonal drink rather than bother w a latte (since she uses it to get energy if it’s 5pm and her day is nearly done whyd she need it then?) no 7-11 coffee or vending machine coffee (junior high trauma) rather sweets and candy if she’s buying from one

daichi

courtesy to @sugardaddykenma, i think daichi oinking his way to the top ended after he had a midlife crisis- so he stops drinking coffee the way he would at the pig pen. sorry ok enough puns but yeah i think he was drinking way too much coffee in both college and at his “job” so coffee now messes with his stomach so much he thinks he might have a heart attack if he drinks more than one cup a week. i don’t know if that directly makes sense but too much coffee can literally kill you and since now he doesn’t fear the revolution here’s another thing for his mind. no coffee, maybe like once if hes at a cafe with his friends but really really prefers plain tea more- especially as he gets older. likes green white and black teas rather than herbal cause caffeine, and doesn’t put sugar in either cause hes #real and genuinely enjoys the flavors more that way

doesn’t go to cafes except for reunions or hanging out with the boys, always more of a “what do they have to eat” rather a “what’s new and exiting to drink” boy. i actually think the only reason he does drink coffee occasionally is because sugawara teases him and also sometimes it’s easier to order something to not be embarassing and to live up to the expectation of a dilf on the prowl rather than well like. dilf drinking tiny mug of jasmine tea. surprisingly an atmosphere enjoyer, people talking all around him is comforting- though if he were to go there frequently he’d grown annoyed

sugawara

king of looking fuckable at a cafe. literally can’t drink coffee black and hates it but still uses it for that energy boost in the morning. has a cheap espresso machine (like 2nd hand and super busted) with a milk frother cause he can’t even drink coffee with just milk it’s so repulsuve to him, he’s gotta fancy it up with syrups & steamed liquids to get anything out of it. but like i said hes king of looking fuckable at a cafe and that’s cause he goes to them all the fucking time. to study to hang for dates like part of it is the ambience is unparalleled but also i mean 1. he likes looking hot 2. he can study 3. man idk hes just a little bitch that wants to look smarter than he actually is. literally in love with the concept of a meet cute so hes in there like “wow... i look so pretty and i’m reading such a big book won’t someone come talk to me”enjoys smiling at other hot patrons and the nines. i think he’d start banter only if you spilled a drink though or something happened hes not that confident to go up to someone full force, and well while he is there sometimes for the hell of it he does actually study there too cause it forces him to do something rather than fuck around on the computer at home. win win system

frequent cafe flyer and frequent cafe snack enjoyer. he’d much rather go for the small snacks like chips and nuts rather than big meal shit cause since his stuff is there he doesn’t wanna get anything on it, and would rather lounge back at home while eating anyways. frequent buys you a sweet on a date type of move, asks if you wanna give him a small bite but doesn’t actually enjoy most sweets that much. ICE LATTE ENJOYER but only when hes on the go or it’s summer, they make a mess when condensation happens.

asahi

hate to tell you folks, but you won’t find this guy in any cafes ever. if he needs to study in a public place he’d rather go to a library and if he can’t go there he’s just seriously gonna sit on the street if it’s the worst of it. can not only not handle cafes if it’s at full capacity, sugawara once shared his cafe strategies with him and now he overthinks whenever he steps foot into one. if he does enter a cafe it’s for a to go order of a cafe au lait (with soy milk, he got in the habit from ordering the wrong thing and never asking them to fix it) because espresso beverages give him anxiety, and add anxiety with a lot of people there it’s just no good and he becomes nervous. he does relax when his friends are there though, and a la p5 enjoys a quiet cafe at night the best. he like herbal teas without sugar (maybe some honey) and aromatic tea blends, but not refresher like beverages at starbucks

since he doesn’t sit down and eat at cafes hes not getting anything substantial, but has a pertulance for sweet stuff! nothing too big but if he gets something sweet with his coffee (and he does get coffee out a lot actually i feel i should clarify. it’s the devil wears prada influence and if you’re a fashion designer chance is you need to go somewhere fast so he needs the energy to power walk and actually ends up picking up coffee for his crew sometimes)

nishinoya

oh christ dude if he got coffee while in high school he’d go fucking insane. way too much current energy + caffeine is such a bad combination- but i think he’d never step into a cafe until his world traveling days. in which case i mean like first of all if you are traveling you’re going to have to keep a tight schedule unless you’re like rich as fuck and can afford to leisure around, and i think he does have some savings but at the same time if he’s himself he’s very likely running around- in summary, cafe visits very dépendant on the culture. cafe dates and cafe stops to get a pick up i think would be the most common stuff here, and coffee would be only used as a wake up i need more energy tool

with food i mean going to a great underground cafe is a right of passage if you’re traveling so i’m sure hes tried all sorts of shit and also hes a big eater, so i can see him getting whatever looks the craziest. big coffee ice cream enjoyer but like i said that’s just to wake up & i think there’s better places to get better juice (& international soda) than a hole in the wall coffee place. did someone say italian sodas or do i have to get my hearing checked

tanaka

man this guys a pussy. thinks starbucks is the fancy coffee place even though it’s a chain and can’t enjoy a non sweetened coffee- even sweetened coffees are a bust. honestly also is too concerned about caffeine being able to “hinder” him, it’s not going to kill you or make you crazy but probably saw someone go balls off the walls with it and is too pussy to try it himself because he thinks he’s so energetic already it’ll make him turn super saiyan. very big enjoyer of a juice, a smoothie, or a refresher again if we’re going from starbucks’ menu. actually yeah it the place offers smoothies he definitely gets that 100% no questions asked, cause it’s the one sweet he can permit himself because he actually thinks it’s healthy when the only reason it “is” is because it’s fruit. does not enjoy the vibes whatsoever and is kinda spooked by everyone drinking coffee in coffee drinking establishments. his wife is more of a man than him in that regard but he can take it

cafe foods aplenty though! likes to walk in and run to get smth and leave, cause it’s less effort than making something and more effort than going to a convenience store. actually has this thing where he picks wifey dearest up snacks he thinks she’ll like. before that he used to scoff at them but now seeing as shes a frequent patron and he is married to her he’s all like look at this treat i bought for you at (blank). it’s kinda sweet! plus he prolly gets a takeout drink for himself too so win win

ennoshita

physical therapy is a lot of work! sorry for the lack of substance for this guy but like a normal adult i think he is normal with his coffee consumption. aka- drinks it to get up, and when hes tired. i think he has a particular interest in trying new things though and will get whatever is interesting to him or something that is weird on the menu like a pumpkin chocolate latte or some shit like that that is unusual but still tasty. adventurous and also you can’t tell at all that hes had coffee, acts completely the same and people even tell him he should drink some coffee cause of the low energy. hes had two cups already and that’s enough!

kinoshita

i think this guy just doesn’t like coffee for whatever reason. he seems like the type of dude to just not drink it and instead go for something energizing in the form of tea or an energy drink but not bean juice, just a vibe! enjoys a cafe every once in a while but goes rarely, i mean hes just chilling! there is a place that hes gone to that he is now an irregular regular of that has a tea infusion of different berries and ingredients that’s meant to clear up your sinuses and calm you. they don’t sell it in packets and hes disappointed about that but the very reason it exists at all is because it’s made out of fresh chopped shit and spices, also it’s a gimmick. they serve them in tea pitchers and he stays there and reads until he finishes. it’s the little things!

kazuhito

writing got erased again but like literally just think of a guy. a guy that works at a company who has to go to work everyday so yeah he drinks coffee and the chances of it being instant are very high. actually doesn’t know that starbucks is a chain and just has the regular drip coffee machine at home, probably takes it with milk and sugar and whatever is there at the time. relaxed guy and relaxed preferences

kageyama

dude doesn’t even know what coffee is to be completely honest. well no that’s a lie he definitely tried some but it made him jittery and he can’t be jittery or else he’s not doing perfect tosses, so no can do. like i know the milk joke is old but i don’t think the habit stops at high school i genuinely think unless one of his teammates or someone with him is like no getting milk or they don’t just serve raw milk because who the fuck would he maybe gets a milk tea at most. honestly not a fan of sugary drinks such as juice or refreshers and whatnot nor iced drinks because well hes just a weirdo. if you take him to a sbucks or somewhere else either order him a london fog or water or a cup of milk if you want your cashier to have something funny to tell. he likes matcha lattes but since they’re high caf he only gets them on off days and like when does he have those? never. genuine weirdo

okay for food it’s anything goes but i think thr funnier thing to talk about would be the amount of time it takes him to read a menu. literally can’t decide on anything especially if a place is out of stock well hes gonna be out of comission for a few minutes as he reconsiders. asks what this has and what’s in this if it’s not listed so it’s really best to just pick smth for him, plain simple and he won’t have any complaints and just sit down w you.

hinata

actually got fond of espresso in brazil but still prefers juices and shit to actual caffeinated beverages. they don’t make them like they used to there 😔 but he does get lattes. LOVES coconut milk and nut milks cause they have an “oomph” (what?) but honestly anything goes kind of guy in where he can get coffee out of a machine at a convenience store starbucks a cafe anything anywhere no problem. thing is though he can only consume it in a short amount of time aka just the morning or else he’s unable to sleep at night, a thing that is most definitely a placebo but like he believes on it so insistently that he just doesn’t mess with it. is a fan of anything new and anything that catches his interest in coffee places, likes to pick stuff up rather than sit down cause he’s a fan of walking and talking and drinking

pastry guy :) or just anything breaded. again likes to pick whatever catches his interest cause he became more adventurous with food for sure, enjoys a sandwitch or some shit i mean you get the point i think. he’s just a funny little guy

tsukishima

honestly? cant fucking drink black coffee. i think it’d be so funny and well also fitting that if he does drink anything he does drink super sugary sweet stuff, like i mean we know he enjoys sweets anyways so why not push it further and say this motherfucker can’t handle tanins at all? and like by all i mean he has to have tea with milk and sugar no matter what it is (well not herbal tea 🍵 that’s an emoji of a green tea but herbal tea never should be enjoyed with milk) his go to is a hot matcha latte and a cold iced vanilla latte. cause both are sweet and make him look a little less pussy when ordering them. straight up will chug purely black coffee out of spite and suppress gags to seem cool, it’s okay tbough hes so far only worried about this happening in front of friends and it hasn’t yet. he has practiced at home though and he can so far not gag but still squint, which he’s thinking if he has to explain will explain by “well uh it tastes like shit so”

i don’t think he needs coffee to get up but instead does need something sweet. since cake doesn’t last a while i’d see him trying to buy some for himself discreetly like i know this dude isn’t a pussy but also imagine being so hard and then being made fun of for eating a cake alone by yourself in a cafe. doesn’t order sweets therefore unless hes in a private room or with a trusted friend. yamaguchi won’t tell on you bro in fact he’ll order the cake and let you have it. doesn’t like any savory thing on the menu for some reason, no matter the place he goes

yamaguchi

actually enjoys tanins but chugs cheap shitty coffee for energy no matter the time of day. he just got used to the lack of taste and definitely grabbed a caffeine addiction to add to his problems to worry about but it’s okay cause hey while he’d never say it he thinks it’s better to be able to taste them and enjoy a normal cup of good beans than to be like his unnamed friend. enjoyer of the whole menu, entirely dependent on the mood. focusing, straight espresso shots, reading, matcha or peppermint tea, vibing, lemonade or lemonade mixture idk you name it. very into cafe energy and feels good whenever he enters one, but doesn’t do it out of neccesity cause once he did actually have someone slightly hit on him at a cafe and he stopped going to it because he interacted with them very awkwardly. is sure the baristas heard and just can’t do it anymore. has pulled all nighters and 24-hr study sessions in internet cafes chugging coffees like a motherfucker. hasn’t yet poured a redbull into coffee yet but i mean it could be coming we never know (nah hes afraid of it)

not a fan of ordering stuff in cafes at all cause hes not there to eat. can be persuaded for a bite if friends are there but if not then hes avoidant of foods. you can’t blame him! it’s kind of awkward to order food at a coffee place anyways so he just steers clear

[justkpopjokes]

Vampire!Minghao || PART 1

A/N: MingHao in the world do I have so many Hao scenarios…RIP THIS IS SO DELAYED LMAO HALLOWEEN WAS 4 MONTHS AGO but hopefully I can post more imagines!! I haven’t even had time to read anything rip but I have lots of drafts coming!!

part 2

If you haven’t read my 3-part Vampire!Mingyu, lemme just give you some context:

In this AU, vampires are real, and the whole world knows about them

They were a threat before, but after vampire hunters killed off most of them

The remaining vampires went into hiding, now with strict rules to keep themselves safe

For humans, there’s some constantly reminded warnings for your own safety

You went against one of them

You were walking alone at night, carrying bags in both hands; no free hands to defend yourself if need be

Honestly stupid decision with or without vampires, stay safe kids use the buddy system

You were the perfect victim.

Before you could do anything, you were pulled sharply by the shoulders into an alley, and you felt a sharp prick in your neck

You blacked out of course

But instead of dying a gruesome death, you woke up in an comfy curtained bed?

You sat up, perfectly fine on the outside, aside from a bandage on the side of your neck, screaming internally whERE TF AM I WHAT IS HAPPENING WHERE ARE MY GROCERIES

Suddenly a tall man entered the room with a breakfast tray

“Ah, you’re awake!”

“Excuse me sir, where the hell are my groceries am I? Who are you?”

“You’re at my mansion! Call me Mr. Xu. You should be pretty hungry, you’ve been asleep a few days now” umm excuse me a few days?

Mr. Xu hands you the breakfast tray and you happily munch on some bread rolls

While you eat, Mr. Xu chats

“Sorry about the bandage, my son shouldn’t have gone out to feed…it’s against the rules, you see. He’s also very bad at it, didn’t drive his teeth in far enough…he’ll learn”

Now obviously you nearly choke on your bread because wtf

“Excuse me? What is happening? He didn’t drive his teeth in far enough?”

“We’re vampires…? Did you not realize?”

“uM nO what am I doing here?!?”

“You didn’t die from a vampire bite. You’re one of us now”

Suddenly another man walked in, slightly shorter than Mr. Xu

He was dressed the same, except his hair looked more unkempt and his tie was slightly off centered

“Ah, this is my son Minghao”

“You mean the guy who bit me really sloppily?”

‘Minghao’ then realizes you’re awake and tries to back out of the room

But you’re like um bish no I lost my groceries cuz of you and glare at him until he eventually gives up and says something

“Uh…hi”

“So do I get an apology orrrr”

The boi just sighs dramatically

“…I’m sorry”

You don’t know whether to forgive him or not bc even his dad looks disappointed in his manners

But he leaves so you can chat with Mr. Xu more

Now honestly you’re really chill in this situation…too chill

Cue a big pain in your stomach making you curl up into a ball, throwing up in your mouth a little

“Aw, I’m sorry,” Mr. Xu says and pats your shoulder, “I thought you’d be fine since you were asleep, but I guess the process was delayed”

You question him, and he explains there’s stages for “turning”

Stage 1 is your body rejecting regular food/very sugary liquids

You’re very iffy about drinking animal blood for the first time, but Mr. Xu mixes it with juice so you don’t taste it as much

After this drink, you feel more energized

But still you stay in bed, and Mr. Xu takes your tray and gives you some more time to rest

Once Mr. Xu closes the door, you get out of bed to grab a book

It’s a history textbook, and you read for a while, learning of vampire history

…Until a harsh voice disrupts your silence, making you jump

Amd there at the door is Minghao with crossed arms, saying “you’re reading a history textbook? What a nerd”

“Excuse you, I want to know more about what issues I’m going to have to live with from now on—”

“Let me just tell you myself”

And so this vampire, who looks about your age except probably 100 years older, sits on your bed and tells you about vampires

“Stage 2 is the enhanced strength/speed—you might accidentally speed run and knock stuff over, so I advise you stay in bed until that stage passes

And stage 3 is your fangs growing in. You want to be careful when you close your mouth because you might have bigger fangs than you think will grow in, and you’ll bite yourself”

By now, Minghao is bored explaining and is studying your face

You’re reading the textbook again, and don’t pay attention to Minghao until he says something un-related to vampires

“You’re pretty cute, you know”

Your jaw just drops slightly and you look up from your book to meet his dreamy eyes

“Maybe you could’ve been a model if you weren’t bitten”

You’re blushing now becaUSE THIS GUY JUST CHECKED YOU OUT OMFG, but manage to grumble back, “To be fair, you bit me”

“True…Sorry about that. I’ll leave you to rest”

Honestly you wanted him to stay, but it would be too awkward to ask

The next day, you wake up and start reading the textbook to start your day

However as you read through it you accidentally tear one of the pages clean out

And like you don’t even realize until after you try to turn the page again

You just throw the book across the room and hide under your thick blanket, looking at your hands

Mr. Xu finds you and sighs, pulling your blanket off to comfort you

You nearly cut off the circulation in his arm by squeezing it but anyways

Over the next few days, you’re going through stage 2, and surprisingly Minghao is the one who comforts you after, not his father he doesn’t really have a choice tho tbh

When you ask why his dad is never there, he says “He goes to work”, but doesn’t reveal where

The point though is this:

Minghao may have low-key flirted with you, but he doesn’t get any more social than that

Sure, I said he comforts you, but he legit just made you tea and sat next to you awkwardly

Honestly he seems like an emo kid; he looks depressed most of the time

And you barely talk to him, he just checks up on you every couple hours or so to ask if you need anything,

One day, you get into a fight

It’s a stupid reason; both of you were just fed up with each other

He hated having to check up on you, but if he didn’t and something happened to you, he’d be in big trouble since he was the one who bit you in the first place

To make things worse, you kept begging to go outside

It was annoying because he wasn’t allowed to let you out, so you kept begging

Then he shouted at you to shut up, which escalated to both of you arguing very loudly

Once Mr. Xu gets home, you both got into big trouble because now there’s unnecessary tension between you

So whenever Minghao has to check on you, he just knocks and you only raise your head for a moment and resume reading to get him to leave

It’s now depressing to be in this room; all you can do is wait until something happens

Your fangs are finally starting to grow in, so you feel them with your tongue as you contemplate what will happen after you finish turning

One day Minghao came in with a tray of hot drinks

You sighed, clearly annoyed that he came in, and took a sip as you read

Suddenly your eyes lit up at the familiar taste of something other than tea or blood

Hot chocolate.

You smile a little at Minghao sitting at the foot of your bed, staring at the wall as he awkwardly apologized for before

Then you push him a little with your foot and mumble a “thank you” as he takes a sip out of his own mug

He just smiles a little and nods

That was his peace offering, and you gleefully accepted it!!

Now your feelings for Minghao are positive, and you grow close to a point where he’ll chill with you and bring in books for both of you to read

He’s still very secretive about himself, but he has no problem chuckling at your funny experiences

Mr. Xu came back to find you one of those nights, and left you both alone knowing things had been resolved

Another day, Minghao knocks and gestures for you to follow him out of the room

This is actually the first time you’ve left the room at all for the past couple weeks, and Minghao leads you through the mansion and onto a balcony

It’s nearly dusk, so the sun is just setting, making a hazy glow in the horizon

You can see outside of the mansion for the first time; a long forest before it transitions to the city, your home

You and Minghao talk while breathing in the fresh air, opening up a bit more than usual bc seeing the sunset had put you in a good mood

“Hey, would you like to see something I like to do?”

“Uh…sure?”

“Promise not to laugh first”

You giggle a little like lmao why tho

“Just promise!!!”

“Ok fine I promise”

Hao leads you back into the room and brings out something from inside his desk

…It’s a ball of string and some knitting needles

“You…knit?”

“…Yeah…I make my own sweaters”

Then Hao rummages through his closet and brings out a really soft sweater for you to wear

And like woW this is actually really soft and comfy???

When you ask why he never wears them, he replied it’s just never needed since he doesn’t really get cold

“You look cute in that, Y/N”

This is like the first time Hao’s called you by name??? And hE CALLED YOU CUTE AJJDIDJWIEIDJEJ OK THEN

You blush really pink, and even have to bite your lip to keep from smiling like a dork—

Suddenly you flinch and by reflex pull your hand up to your mouth

whoOPS your fangs were too sharp and you managed to bite your own lip

Minghao quickly realizes this and manages to tell you to keep your mouth open in the nick of time

If you taste your own blood, you might like it and bite yourself in the future just to taste your own blood

So Minghao does the first thing he thinks of

He mumbles a quick “sorry for this”

Before fully plACinG hIS LiPS oN yOuRs

ANd liKE LicKinG yOuR LIp slIgHtLy????????

He was only trying to clean the blood off tho, so immediately after, he shyly went off to find you a napkin to stop the blood flowing from your bottom lip

Your jaw was dropped completely so no worry about tasting your own blood lmao

But he returns and dabs lol wait i just remembered the other dab a wet towel on your lip

You glance at Minghao and he’s licking your blood stain off his own lips and like first of all how dare you attack me like this

And then you question the blood issue

“Does vampire blood have a difference between human blood?”

“If you’re wondering if I’d bite you again to taste your blood then no, I might hurt you”

“Aw, that’s your reason?”

“Well,,,,yeah”

aW CUTE

He kinda just mumbles “if you’re wondering, your blood doesn’t taste bad”

“Really?”

“Yea can I kiss you again?”

“…”

“waiT I MEAN”

He turns as red as the blood from your lip now lol

You just lean in and plant a soft kiss on his lips

I have more plot to this but honestly? I think I’ll just leave it as this for now. So request for part 2 if y'all want to know the rest!!

Aizawa x reader series

(A/n sorry guys, not much Aizawa in this chapter, it’s mostly just some of the reader character being badass and learning about the quirk soul capture. Next chapter is some bonding with Aizawa though <3 )

Chapter 2 Combat Training

Today is going to be interesting. Mr. Aizawa said today we were doing combat training, and because your quirk isn’t physical, you’re allowed a single weapon that either already is or will become your specialty weapon in combat. You already have a weapon though, in the form of a thick, lightweight metal belt you always wore. You watched on the screens as each team battled against each other, taking silent note of their strategies and skills. There was an odd number of students in the class and it was just your luck to be the one left by yourself. Finally, it was your turn to fight team J, Karishma and Sero. How is it fair for you to be the only one to have to fight alone?

“Miss L/N, young Shoji here has offered to be your teammate for this exercise, you two will be the hero’s.” All Might spoke in his always happy voice.

“Are you sure Shoji? Your team already passed though?”

“Todoroki already passed; I hardly did anything. Unless you’d rather go alone,” Shoji spoke from the end of one of his appendages.

“As long as you’re sure, I’ve never had to work on a sort of team but let’s do this,” You stated confidently.

“Do you have a plan?”

“Not entirely, although I have something that could really help.” You stated as you both stood in the opening hallway. You began to take off one of the weights around your wrist. “This is a weighted smoke bomb, if we can figure out where they are, we can blind them with these and slip in unnoticed.

“That’s a really good plan, I can listen and figure out where they are.” Shoji changed all of the appendages to ears like he did with Todoroki. “They’re on the third floor, and it sounds like Sero is making a sort of web or something, I hear a lot of tearing tape.”

“If they are making a web then it’ll be harder for us to navigate to the missile quickly and increase our chances of getting caught.” You thought out loud.

“I have an idea,” Shoji started. “If we time it right, I can climb up the outside of the building, when I get there you can go in and create a distraction while I sneak in behind and get the weapon.”

“That could totally work, let’s do it.” You put your fist up out of habit and he gave you a fist bump before you started down the hall. “Let me know when you have eyes on the weapon and I’ll try to smoke them out.” He gave a thumbs up before going outside to climb. You made your way up the stairs quietly, listening for any signs of your opponents. You make your way down the hall, peeking in every room before slipping past it until you reached your goal. You sat down in the next room over and started an astral projection to get a good look in the next room without being seen. You memorized the location and positions of the tape and the windows before returning to your body.

“Shoji, can you hear me?” You whispered into the earpiece.

“Yeah, I’m almost there.”

“Okay, you were right about them making a web and it looks like the best place for you to get in is the east window.”

“Alright, I’m ready.”

You get up and made your way back to the hallway where you intentionally closed the door loudly and ducked into the dark room across the hall. You heard shuffling as a shadow came out into the hall and Kirishima snuck past your door, ready for combat. You activated your quirk as you stepped out behind him, catching his body as he spun around meeting your eyes and going limp. You carefully lowered him to the ground and went back to the door, throwing in one of your wrist weights. You ducked behind the doorway as the weight exploded in a cloud of white smoke.

“Go Shoji, I’ll handle the others.” You spoke into the headset as you entered the room, your goggles protecting your eyes from the smoke as you made your way to the sound of Sero coughing. He tried to restrain you with his tape but failed as you looked into his eyes, taking his soul.

“I’ve got it,” Shoji called out as you shook off the tape and went to join him by the weapon.

“We should open some windows to clear the smoke,” You said heading to one of the windows as Shoji opened another.

“Team K wins the match!” All might cheered over the speaker.

“You took their souls?” Shoji asked you as he looked down the hall to a peacefully unconscious Kirishima and seeing the unconscious Sero.

“Yeah, easiest way to avoid a fight and keep them complacent,” You took off your goggles to reveal your black eyes and red iris’s like before. You went to Sero first since he was closest and returned his soul. You stood up as he groaned slightly and walked over to Kirishima and returned his soul. They both sat up groggily as if they were waking up from a long nap, which they kind of were. Time passes a lot slower in the real world than in your mind, so even though they were only unconscious for a minute, for them it was a little over an hour. It took them a moment to reorient themselves but once they realized they were back in the real world they both rushed at you with questions pouring out of them.

“What was that coffee? It was so good! And that tea was amazing! What was that room? It looked like a library, and there was so much music, we couldn’t decide what to listen to! Were we really in there for so long?”

They were both flinging questions at you without a single care to the fact that they lost the exercise, and you couldn’t even figure out what questions came from who.

“Please return to the classroom to finish your lessons.” All Might announced over the speaker again.

“You can ask her later if she is willing to answer, we should get back to the rest of the class right now though.” Shoji said from a mouth on one of his tentacles. You were thankful for the interruption.

After returning to the class All Might praised us all for our work before waking a sleeping Aizawa behind the teacher’s desk.

“Tomorrow you’re doing more training exercises so make sure your costumes and everything are prepared, we won’t be returning until training is done.” He said as he stood and climbed out of his sleeping bag. “You’re dismissed.”

You stood with the rest of the class and started walking out.

“Y/N!! Wait up!!” Kirishima yelled out as you reached the door.

“Come on,” Sero joined in. “You have to tell us about that room!”

“And the coffee, I’ve never tasted anything so bitter and smooth before,”

“And that mint tea, it was sooo good,” Sero raved.

“Are those real drinks?”

“And is that room a real place? Is it like the library at your house or something?” The two boys were so eager to learn more they didn’t even realize they were towering over and cornering you until Mr. Aizawa stepped in.

“And why are you two trying to interrogate miss L/N?”

“Ah, Mr. Aizawa! Sorry, it’s just we have so many questions,” Sero answered.

“About?”

“Y/N used her quirk on us during the exercise and whatever the place she put us was amazing!” Kirishima almost yelled with excitement. “It was beautiful, and so detailed. There was even classical music playing and a wall full of teas and coffee, so we tried some,”

“And a ton of books and music with this old kind of record player with a speake- “

“Gramophone,” You say suddenly making all three look at you. “I like how they look and sound. And technically the music was orchestral although most people don’t know the difference. And no, the room isn’t a real place I’ve seen, I worked hard to create it for when I need to escape into my head for a minute, it seemed like the safest and most relaxing place to put you two. The drinks are real, you had a Turkish lemon-mint tea and death wish coffee, which by the way you brewed light; you’re supposed to put three scoops in for a regular cup, not one.” You fall silent as you thought if you missed any questions.

“That’s so cool,” Kirishima said just above a whisper.

“Do you have them? Do you think we could try it?”

“Oh yeah, I mean trying it in your head is one thing, but it would be awesome to try in real life. I didn’t really drink that coffee, but I still feel super energized from it!” Kirishima clenched his fist in excitement.

“Uhm, sure?” You responded, briefly making eye contact with Aizawa as he started to leave, making your heart flutter slightly. “I-I’m sorry, I have to go now. I can bring you guys some tomorrow.” You said as you start to sidestep to the door. You slip out of the room and head down the hall with a relieved sigh.

That look from Aizawa, were you imagining things? He almost looked impressed by you as Kirishima and Sero talked about your quirk. Should I bring him a drink too? What kind of drink does he even like? Would it be weird to bring him something? Probably right, I mean he didn’t ask for anything. Your mind kept racing as you walked to the bar, frequently checking around you to make sure no one was following you. You sighed as you entered your small home, you felt unusually exhausted, so you checked your blood sugar. Makes sense its low, using your quirk drains your blood sugar, it’s not uncommon for your blood sugar to get as low as the 50’s (a/n normal is generally 80-140, you can survive for years with very high blood sugar, although very unhealthy and makes you feel like shit. As for low blood sugar, most people lose consciousness below mid 40’s and getting too low you’ll die. Sugary candies are of course a source of short lasting sugar, carbs are best to maintain higher blood sugar levels instead of only spiking it. I will also mention insulin, used to treat high blood sugar, and glucagon, basically the opposite of insulin, used to treat extreme low blood sugar. Sorry, just felt like I had to throw that knowledge at you since I’ll be using it later and I feel like every good quirk needs some kind of drawback, i.e. like Kirishima’s harden or Aizawa blinking, or Todoroki giving freezing himself with ice power or Yuga’s tummy ache, you get the idea. Byeee). You make yourself a pb&j to eat while you got ready for work. Putting on music and dancing around as you adjusted your scifi looking headset under your wig and started on your makeup. You didn’t have to sing tonight which was good for you, it always made you sound horse the next day. This all might actually work, this whole double life and graduating UA. You finished getting ready for work early with high spirits and sing to yourself going up the stairs.
